[12:01] <kikkymonk> all the windows take time to load... there is a general sense of laggyness to my whole system now... is does ubuntu run slower or faster than XP on a given machine?
[12:01] <SeveredCross> In Universe, yep.
[12:01] <SeveredCross> kikkymonk: Ubuntu's always run faster for me.
[12:01] <progek> anyone know where I can find a nice binary clock desklet? I don't like the ones pre-installed in gdesklets
[12:01] <h1st0> kikkymonk: runs faster on mine.
[12:01] <AlexC_> kikkymonk: it depends entirely on the PC
[12:01] <h1st0> progek: apt-cache search clock
[12:02] <xtknight> kikkymonk: install video drivers
[12:02] <kikkymonk> somethings up then
[12:02] <Jase23> Hello. i've looked at a few guides but i can't seem to get it to work. How do you get ubuntu to use 1280x1024 resolution? ive used one which said to alter xorg.conf and i did so but when i restarted all it did was remove 1024x768 from my resolution list and not add 1280x1024
[12:02] <FrederikW> ubuntu is faster than windows on my pc
[12:02] <MindRiot> Hey Severed: un commented all the # debs that were there still get the E: Couldnt find package module
[12:02] <killermach_> xtknight: what am I missing  that chroot  is eluding me?
[12:02] <rasputnik> killermach_: are you root?
[12:02] <h1st0> !resolution > Jase23
[12:02] <SeveredCross> MindRiot: You'll need to do sudo apt-get update first.
[12:02] <xtknight> killermach_: well chroot alone can not make a usb stick bootable
[12:02] <dauoalagio2> xtknight, it looks like it's predicting my battery wrongly...i am not gonna plug it in until it dies stragiht up...
[12:02] <SeveredCross> Forgot to mention that. ^_^
[12:02] <AlexC_> bye all!
[12:02] <kikkymonk> does ubunutu come with video drivers? i have an nvidia 6600gt
[12:02] <erUSUL> !nvidia | kikkymonk
[12:02] <ubotu> kikkymonk: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:02] <h1st0> kikkymonk: it comes with a open source version
[12:03] <Lcarsdata> I am getting an error: 'FATAL: Error installing zd1211 (/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-286/kernel/drivers/usb/net/zd1211/zd1211.jo): Operation not permitted' what is wrong?
[12:03] <MindRiot> lol
[12:03] <h1st0> kikkymonk: but for 3d suport you need to follow the binary driver how to;.
[12:03] <dauoalagio2> Jase23: 915resolution
[12:03] <vustar> Lcarsdata, become root
[12:03] <SeveredCross> The proprietary nVidia driver, which may provide better performance, you have to install separately.
[12:03] <xtknight> Lcarsdata: .jo? did you mean .ko?
[12:03] <Lcarsdata> how?
[12:03] <dauoalagio2> Jase23: sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[12:03] <Lcarsdata> ko yes
[12:03] <h1st0> SeveredCross: nvidia-glx works fine
[12:03] <Jase23> i'll give it a try, thanks
[12:03] <Lcarsdata> the keys are  next to each other
[12:03] <xtknight> Lcarsdata: sudo insmod asdfasddas
[12:03] <xtknight> Lcarsdata: sudo modprobe asddads   whichever commadn you were running
[12:03] <MindRiot> Served: Still a nadda
[12:03] <SeveredCross> Hmm...
[12:03] <SeveredCross> Interesting.
[12:04] <Lcarsdata> how do I become rok
[12:04] <Lcarsdata> ok
[12:04] <xtknight> Lcarsdata: you put sudo in front of a command
[12:04] <vustar> Lcarsdata, su -
[12:04] <xtknight> !root | Lcarsdata
[12:04] <SeveredCross> I would try it myself, but sadly I'm on XP right now (dying HDD, can't repartition to install Ubuntu).
[12:04] <ubotu> Lcarsdata: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:04] <Lcarsdata> ahh, cool
[12:04] <kikkymonk> i had a suspicion that it was my video driver but when i went into applications->add/remove it showed i already had nvidia binary x.org driver installed
[12:04] <MindRiot> WWAIT Severed it was my bad
[12:04] <xtknight> sudo will run individual programs as root so it's safer than fully going into root at once.  su - does not work on ubuntu, the command is sudo -s
[12:04] <Alonea> anyone use cvscedega?
[12:04] <SeveredCross> Hmm?
[12:04] <MindRiot> module-assistant
[12:04] <SeveredCross> Did you typo something?
[12:04] <MindRiot> i forgot the -
[12:04] <h1st0> xtknight: or sudo -i
[12:04] <SeveredCross> Ooh.
[12:04] <pike_> kikkymonk: do you get the nvidia splash screen when the login loads?
[12:04] <vustar> xtknight, yes it does
[12:04] <SeveredCross> That'll do it. :)
[12:04] <xtknight> yea not sure the diff
[12:05] <killermach_> xtknight: my instructions show that I should "mount -t proc /media/USB/proc" this fails and only spews out basic "mount" help
[12:05] <xtknight> su - does not work on ubuntu unless you enable the root acct
[12:05] <kikkymonk> pike_ don't think so
[12:05] <SeveredCross> Uhhm
[12:05] <xtknight> whereas sudo -i and sudo -s work all the time
[12:05] <kikkymonk> i'll give https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:05] <h1st0> kikkymonk: glxinfo | grep render
[12:05] <SeveredCross> Don't you need /dev/proc somewhere there?
[12:05] <kikkymonk> hlst0 in terminal?
[12:05] <xtknight> killermach_: you mean like invalid fileststem?
[12:05] <h1st0> kikkymonk: yes
[12:05] <h1st0> kikkymonk: what is the output.
[12:06] <MindRiot> ok SeveredCross:  Its working envy installing just asking me for my cd now
[12:06] <kikkymonk> direct rendering: No
[12:06] <kikkymonk> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[12:06] <xtknight> kikkymonk: it's the video drivers slowing you down that's for sure
[12:06] <SeveredCross> MindRiot: It probably needs some packages from the CD.
[12:06] <kikkymonk> and direct rendering is set to no
[12:06] <pike_> kikkymonk: ive never bothered with the nvidia-glx package ive just used nvidia's installer but if you do that youll have to rerun it whenever you upgrade the kernel. if thats ok do a google search for like 'ubuntu nvidia latest' or something
[12:06] <progek> kikkymonk what kind of video card do you have?
[12:06] <kikkymonk> yeah i thought so
[12:06] <h1st0> kikkymonk: you are using hte free drivers then.
[12:06] <SeveredCross> pike_: She can just use Envy.
[12:06] <kikkymonk> 6600gt nvidia
[12:07] <fervidfrogger> Anyone know if MIDI is supported automatically by Ubuntu or not?
[12:07] <marcus_> I'm looking for some sort of syncing (over local network) program for my laptop and stationary, any recommendations?
[12:07] <progek> kikkymonk use envy to install nvidia drivers for you
[12:07] <h1st0> kikkymonk: to install the nvidia-glx package just sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx and after its done just run sudo nvidia-xconfig
[12:07] <SeveredCross> Though that still involves re-running Envy each time the kernel is updated
[12:07] <SeveredCross> marcus_: Cron and rsync?
[12:07] <h1st0> kikkymonk: should get you up and going
[12:07] <h1st0> kikkymonk: No need for Envy or any other garbage.
[12:07] <h1st0> using nvidia-glx package will require no changes on your part when kernel updates
[12:07] <ubuntu_noo1> hello room
[12:07] <marcus_> SeveredCross: I never thought of rsync for this kind of thing, but ofcourse, thanks :)
[12:08] <ubuntu_noo1> can someone please help me on updating my ati driver ?
[12:08] <xtknight> killermach_: standard mount errors?    you mean like invalid filesystem?...
[12:08] <kikkymonk> when i nvidia-xconfig i got Using X configuration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf". ERROR: Unable to write to directory '/etc/X11'.
[12:08] <h1st0> !ati > ubuntu_noo1
[12:08] <xtknight> kikkymonk: use sudo
[12:08] <h1st0> kikkymonk: you have to put sudo in front of that.
[12:08] <Veinor|FFXII> sudo nvidia-xconfig
[12:08] <ubuntu_noo1> hlsto: hi
[12:08] <kikkymonk> darn sudo : P
[12:08] <h1st0> kikkymonk: then just restart X log out and ctrl+alt+backspace or hit ctyrl+alt+f1 and log in tyep in sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart either way.
[12:09] <TheManiacKY> Hi gang. I'm looking for a laptop that can run Ubuntu with wifi/dvd for 300 or under. Any recommendations? :) Community college kid here.
[12:09] <h1st0> TheManiacKY: any laptop
[12:09] <MindRiot> OOOOO envy just got done and its restarting IAM NERVOUS
[12:10] <h1st0> TheManiacKY: if you look on the wiki there is suppoprted hardware listed.  Or search in google for linux compatitbility list.
[12:10] <xtknight> why be nervous? with linux EVERYTHING can be fixed
[12:10] <xtknight> well almost :P
[12:10] <h1st0> ugh envy
[12:10] <h1st0> So dumb that people suggest and use that.
[12:10] <MindRiot> haha
[12:10] <killermach_> xtknight: same output as when I type "mount -asdf"
[12:10] <TheManiacKY> h1st0 I'll take a look there thanks
[12:10] <Kaur> Hi
[12:10] <h1st0> hola
[12:10] <xtknight> killermach_: because you only specified a mount point and no device :)
[12:10] <MindRiot> h1st0:  Well every Forum that i followed to install the nvidia drivers for mylaptop to get beryl to work caused a crash
[12:10] <MindRiot> on Xorg
[12:10] <xtknight> killermach_: usb device may be /dev/sdx or something
[12:11] <h1st0> MindRiot: just go to System > Administration > Synaptic  and install nvidia-glx it really isn't that hard.
[12:11] <Kaur> I need to view a web page as I'd be viewing it with ie. (solving browser&html compability problem) Any way to do it under ubuntu?
[12:11] <xtknight> killermach_: the guide actually never says to mount it from what i see
[12:11] <h1st0> Kaur: ies4lin
[12:11] <kbrooks> Kaur, ies4linux
[12:11] <xtknight> killermach_: other than by invoking its normal automatic mount by replugging in the stick
[12:12] <Kaur> thanks
[12:12] <acorn22> Hello everybody
[12:12] <progek> ies4lin works good, I need it for taking online tests for school
[12:12] <xtknight> Kaur: i reommend running IE under a VMware instead but that's just me
[12:12] <killermach_> xtknight: ok.. I'll try /dev/sdb1
[12:12] <killermach_> nope
[12:12] <Kaur> thanks for ur advice
[12:13] <xtknight> killermach_: i dont know, what step you at?
[12:13] <SurfPunk> hello
[12:13] <acorn22> Can someone help me with changing my screen resolution? ...I have already installed the nvidia driver
[12:13] <h1st0> !resolution > acorn22
[12:13] <killermach_> xtknight: usbstick is mounted
[12:13] <kikkymonk> muuuuuch better... thanks all
[12:13] <xtknight> killermach_: ok so you don't need to run 'mount' again
[12:13] <h1st0> kikkymonk: np
[12:13] <progek> kaur if you are going to use ies4linux-> http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
[12:14] <Kaur> progek: ok, thanks
[12:14] <pike_> kikkymonk: get yourself some open source games now and put that card through its paces :)
[12:14] <progek> kikkymonk enemy-territory :D
[12:14] <killermach_> xtknight: it appears that the proc filesystem needs to be mounted to the /media/USB/proc so I can chroot /media/USB , then I can modify grub
[12:14] <h1st0> kikkymonk: nexuiz, americas army, etc...
[12:14] <progek> wesnoth too
[12:14] <xtknight> killermach_: ok so you're not using the guide this time?
[12:14] <progek> just compiled dev version
[12:15] <kikkymonk> hehe... im on it : P
[12:15] <SurfPunk> rebooting no sound anyone have this problem
[12:15] <h1st0> kikkymonk: just sudo apt-get install nexuiz works for that one.
[12:15] <SurfPunk> I know the sound problems get old
[12:15] <killermach_> xtknight: I used that guide and have the partitions made and the edgy.zip extracted to /media/USB and this did not work last time.. hold that thought ...
[12:16] <acorn22> I already have edited the xorg.conf file but 1280x1024 doens't show up in the gui
[12:16] <SurfPunk> but I'm new to linux
[12:16] <kingcobra> how do u delete a link to a folder
[12:16] <kingcobra> i hav 2 that wont delete on desktop
[12:16] <MindRiot> Hey Severed: Easyest way to install beryl?
[12:16] <Lcarsdata> SET failed on device ethX ; No such device. -- what does this mean?
[12:16] <donamor> anyone know how to view the parameters a module was loaded with?
[12:16] <IndyGunFreak> kingcobra: what i would do, open a terminal, "sudo nautilus"... then navigate to the desktop folder and delete them
[12:16] <vince_> acorn22: is your System>Preferences>Screen Resolution messed up?
[12:17] <progek> MindRiot if you have your card drivers installed just look at the howto on the forum
[12:17] <killermach_> then I got Oreilly Ubuntu Hacks book and it shows installing to USB from the CD installer, but it doesn't work errors out because when the filesystems are created, the get "hijack mounted" before the install completes
[12:17] <progek> glxinfo | grep render
[12:17] <MindRiot> ya
[12:17] <MindRiot> i got the Yes from there command
[12:17] <killermach_> xtknight: so I'm trying to do  hybrid install following both
[12:17] <progek> ok, the forum has a lot of howtos on Beryl
[12:17] <progek> it's pretty simple
[12:17] <Lcarsdata> is it possible to enable conference mode here.
[12:18] <IndyGunFreak> !beryl
[12:18] <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
[12:18] <IndyGunFreak> conference mode?
[12:18] <Lcarsdata> all these leaves and quits and joins get in the way
[12:18] <xtknight> killermach_: hmm... sorry i have to go at the moment.  you'd do mount -t proc /dev/sdx /mount/usb/proc or whatever, replacing the devices as necessary
[12:18] <progek> Only problem I have with Beryl is it does not like Java Swing components :(
[12:18] <acorn22> vince_: yes
[12:18] <IndyGunFreak> Lcarsdata: turn off to be notified when people enter/leave
[12:18] <Lcarsdata> ok
[12:18] <progek> tried a few fixes but no luck
[12:18] <Crane> Hello everyone!
[12:18] <kingcobra> IndyGunFreak, stil wont delete
[12:18] <killermach_> xtknight: thanks
[12:18] <vince_> acorn22: i have the same problem, the Restricted Drivers Manager is buggy
[12:19] <IndyGunFreak> kingcobra: then you're doing something wrong.
[12:19] <kingcobra> i kno
[12:19] <IndyGunFreak> that should have deleted them w/o issue
[12:19] <kingcobra> IndyGunFreak, i dont kno why they wont delete
[12:19] <acorn22> vince_: is there a way to change the resolution w/ the terminal
[12:19] <progek> bye all

[12:20] <Crane> I'm jumping in the middle of the convrsation but did you check permissions King
[12:20] <WinSrev> Does anybody know why Ubuntu wont detect my hardware SATA RAID 0?
[12:20] <kingcobra> IndyGunFreak, the links wont delete tho
[12:20] <harry_> what is a good FPS for Linux?
[12:20] <IndyGunFreak> Crane: doesn't really matter, sudo nautilus, and navigate to the file, will override permissions
[12:20] <kingcobra> IndyGunFreak, cud there b something special about these links
[12:20] <Crane> true
[12:21] <IndyGunFreak> kingcobra: highly unlikely

 SET failed on device ethX ; No such device. -- what does this mean?
[12:21] <jontec> is there anyway to restore my drivers.... like to the state when I installed the *ubuntu the first time... mainly I want my drivers back
[12:21] <jrib> kingcobra: you need to disable icons for mounted volumes using gconf-editor
[12:21] <acorn22> brb, rebooting X
[12:22] <pike_> jontec: for what?
[12:22] <Crane> kingcobra, so you naviagte to in with sudo nautilus, right click > delete and then.... no error message?
[12:22] <IndyGunFreak> kingcobra: lol, you said it was a link to a file.
[12:22] <Flannel> kingcobra, Crane, gksu nautilus, not sudo
[12:22] <Crane> never used gksu nautilus... hhmmmmm
 SET failed on device ethX ; No such device. -- what does this mean?
[12:23] <Crane> I always use sudo nautilus
[12:23] <IndyGunFreak> Crane: some swear sudo nautilus is the devil
[12:23] <IndyGunFreak> like Automatix!
[12:23] <kingcobra> ok
[12:23] <Flannel> Crane: gksu (or kdesu for Kubuntu) should always be used to run graphical programs, not sudo.
[12:23] <jontec> alsamixer gives me an error and amaroK does the same, but Kmix doesn't (I'v ebeen tussling with this for almost three months) I changed some things a while ago (atiixp install) and now the card isn't registered
[12:23] <pike_> bah people afraid to chown their .config files
[12:23] <harry_> when I select the nexuiz package it gives me : nexuiz:
[12:23] <harry_>  Depends: nexuiz-data but it is not going to be installed
[12:23] <jontec> pike_: sorry, didn't direct that at you, read my last message
[12:24] <Flannel> pike_: problems are problems ;)  when something breaks, people don't like it.  Even when they broke it themselves.
[12:24] <Crane> IndyGunFreak, LOL but if gksu nautilus give you root priv in nautilus what would be the difference?
[12:24] <Crane> Flannel, why
 SET failed on device ethX ; No such device. -- what does this mean?
[12:24] <jpjacobs> harry_, if you get it form their site, you can just get a runnable file, no need to install even
[12:24] <acorn22> Bah! I can't change my resolution!
[12:24] <IndyGunFreak> Crane: cuz its the devil!
[12:24] <Crane> sudo has worked for me every time
[12:24] <Crane> lol
[12:24] <IndyGunFreak> Crane: me to, so i guess we are at risk
[12:25] <Flannel> Crane: when using sudo, some programs write config stuff to your homedir, the configs are then owned by root, and you can't run those programs without sudo anymore (until you chown them back to your user)
[12:25] <jpjacobs> !resolution>acorn22
[12:25] <Crane> does this mean I am in cooots with the devil!
[12:25] <Crane> cohoots
[12:25] <pike_> jontec: sorry im firing up tremulous :) maybe someone else here can advise
[12:25] <arrenlex> My computer hangs for six or seven seconds (black screen) when X starts at boot. Can I remedy this?
[12:25] <kingcobra> jrib shud i restart after disable volume icons
[12:25] <Flannel> IndyGunFreak, Crane, you're welcome to use sudo yourself, but please in this channel, recommend gksu/kdesu.  Don't knowingly put others at risk.
[12:26] <IndyGunFreak> lol, i've never knowingly put someone at risk, and i don't think sudo nautilus does either
[12:26] <IndyGunFreak> not when jus trying to delete a file.
[12:26] <shnastybiznastic> is enlightenment DR17 in the repositories?  I don't see it
[12:26] <harry_> On my friend's computer, his wireless card is listed as eth1. how do I tell it it is a wireless card?
[12:26] <kingcobra> jrib the volume icons r gon but i stil cant delete the other links to windows volume
[12:26] <Crane> Flannel, oh I never run programs from nautilus while sudo. I mainly use it to just change permissions
[12:26] <IndyGunFreak> Crane: exactly
[12:26] <Crane> No prob though, will try to remember
[12:27] <Flannel> shnastybiznastic: no.  Only 16.  e17 is still a development release, and won't be in the repos.
[12:27] <Crane> Althoug I must warn you, my memory is kinda....... what were we taking about?
[12:27] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:27] <WinSrev> dont any of you know about SATA Raids?
[12:27] <Crane> :)

[12:43] <sputnick> re
[12:43] <Kevlar> Is there an easy way to instally it?
[12:43] <atoponce> r_: yes. mysql-query-browser
[12:43] <Kevlar> tar.bz2?
[12:43] <atoponce> r_: or, phpmyadmin
[12:43] <kingcobra> bruenig, it is volumes_visible
[12:43] <l0ok1ng> any one knows how to run that install.sh file (which is what I think I need to get running) to install childsplay 0.85.2 (which is not in repository)?

[12:44] <Jowi> mok, I don't know enough to help with it I think. but, it's usually a prob with acpi. I would turn it off unless you're using a laptop where you need it. a different kernel version might help. depends on what hardware you've got. had that prob on a via board and turning off acpi worked for me but some powersaving functions dissappeared of course.
[12:44] <bruenig> kingcobra, well delete them
[12:44] <kingcobra> i cant bruenig
[12:44] <l0ok1ng> xMorgawr - yes childsplay..

[12:44] <void^> l0ok1ng: it should come with a README or INSTALL file you can read.
[12:44] <Crane> kingcobra, did you mount the drive yourself?

[12:44] <kingcobra> crane yes

[12:45] <l0ok1ng> (which for some reason the system won't let me login as root)
[12:45] <ikonia> Kevlar: STOP asking caps and STOP repeating yourself
[12:45] <Ahorner> how do i run with root permissions without using sudo
[12:45] <bruenig> Kevlar, you are probably going to need to compile, unless you are sure it is precompiled binaries
[12:45] <Flannel> !sudo | l0ok1ng
[12:45] <ubotu> l0ok1ng: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[12:45] <mok> u cant login as root

[12:45] <Flannel> l0ok1ng: that's because Ubuntu doesn't use (and locks) the root account
[12:45] <mok> u have 2 go 2 ur login settings and enable it
[12:46] <Ahorner> ok
[12:46] <kingcobra> bruenig, rm worked
[12:46] <mok> its cuz its not recommended
[12:46] <Kevlar> bruenig: im sure, i just unpacked it into the desktop and it runs with all these files and folders everywhere, obviously i need to unpack it to whrer it will live.
[12:46] <kingcobra> bruenig, thanks very much, why wud normal delete not do u know

[12:52] <bruenig> Kevlar, ok, with the right codecs they will open externally in totem, but whatever
[12:52] <Arrick> ok Seveas thanks
[12:52] <john_> #beryl
[12:52] <ikonia> RoundyT1: easy to use, hard to customise
[12:52] <RoundyT1> dang.
[12:52] <john_> #beryl
[12:52] <xMorgawr> drew: i don't know about 6.06, this is my first ubuntu OS and so far 6.10 looks great
[12:52] <mok> ikonia: makes sense when your used to something it just hard when something different is thrown at you.
[12:52] <Jowi> john_, use "/join #channelname"
[12:52] <Howdy125> Using gdm .. I have to login twice before I manage to get to a desktop .. any ideas what might be causing this ?
[12:52] <Arrick> I have 733mhz with 512 memory and I wanted to make sure it would be enough for the new distro Seveas
[12:52] <Seveas> Arrick, but if you want to do something useful (like serve webpages) you'll need some more juice
[12:52] <Kevlar> bruenig:  I try totem and it works , but EVERY other media type wont work the way I want....totem is not good imo
[12:52] <Seveas> 733/512 is more than enough for a basic server
[12:52] <john_> Thankyou jowi
[12:52] <Arrick> thats what it is doing Seveas is serving my web pages
[12:52] <Kevlar> bruenig:  IDEALLY i would get mplayer to run it, but it wont.
[12:52] <shane634> Arrick, that will do nicely
[12:52] <TheManiacKY> I have a 933 with 640 meg of memory. It runs 6.10 very nice.
[12:52] <nick_> hello room
[12:52] <Ahorner> unix is complicated
[12:53] <TheManiacKY> I'm downloading 7.04. Lets see how much this little laptop can keep up with the times
[12:53] <Arrick> soooo, the big question
[12:53] <nick_> im new to linux and would like some help installing a wireless card
[12:53] <bruenig> Kevlar, well they all do work with correct codecs, and by the way, two media players on the disk won't corrupt it
[12:53] <shane634> TheManiacKY, it is beta ya know
[12:53] <mok> ikonia: now if you could help me with something?
[12:53] <Arrick> why is 6.10 supported till 2008, and 6.06 supported till 2011?
[12:53] <xMorgawr> mmm.. will i have to format and install 7.04 if i want to use it? i mean.. without having to partition? won't there be an update thing for 6.10?
[12:53] <Kevlar> TheManiacKY:  it'll work dont do some of the prettier GUI and you'll be alright
[12:53] <ikonia> mok: whats up
[12:53] <simonsays> could someone help me with my nvidia installation?
[12:54] <TheManiacKY> shane634 I know. I'm feeling dangerous. ;)
[12:54] <Arrick> Seveas ^
[12:54] <crimsun> Arrick: because 6.06 is LTS, or 3 years (desktop)/5 years (server)
[12:54] <Kevlar> bruenig:  tried it.
[12:54] <dac_> What diff ubuntuand kubuntu?
[12:54] <Kevlar> bruenig:  Totem takes over
[12:54] <Arrick> what is LTS?
[12:54] <shane634> TheManiacKY, haha good luck it may break things
[12:54] <TheManiacKY> if you type upgrade-manager -d it will upgrade 6.10 to 7.04
[12:54] <drew> Arrick, I'd like to know that too actually.
[12:54] <nick_> any one point me in the right direction to install drivers
[12:54] <ikonia> Arrick: read http://www.ubuntu.com
[12:54] <crimsun> Arrick: "long term support"
[12:54] <Jowi> Arrick, Long Term Support
[12:54] <shane634> Arrick, it is long term support
[12:54] <Arrick> ahh ok
[12:54] <Arrick> thanks
[12:54] <bruenig> Kevlar, no it doesn't but anyways just run the hxplayer.bin file to install it
[12:54] <RoundyT1> why doesn't "wordpress" show up in my menu?
[12:54] <mok> ikonia: i've got ubuntu 6.10 on a toshibal laptop and everytime i go to shutdown it unloads ubuntu but then it just stops at a blank screen and wont power down
[12:54] <TheManiacKY> shane634 And I'll just blow away the os partion and start over. My home/docs are on another partion so I'm all good
[12:54] <bruenig> hxplay.bin*
[12:54] <Arrick> and ikonia uhmm, I am on that site, thats why I am asking the questions
[12:55] <kitche> RoundyT1: wordpress is not an application
[12:55] <ikonia> Arrick: that sites tells you all the info
[12:55] <RoundyT1> dear gosh
[12:55] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:55] <shane634> TheManiacKY, good deal
[12:55] <Kevlar> bruenig:  run the bin? and it will Install?
[12:55] <xMorgawr> guys, is there a way to have more than 2 workspace without using beryl (or whatever the name of 3d desktop program is)??
[12:55] <ikonia> mok: probably apm not working
[12:55] <RoundyT1> kitche, what the heck is it? lol. someone just said they used it to build a website...lol
[12:55] <kitche> RoundyT1: it's a web application mostly used for blogs running on apache
[12:55] <Ahorner> i like cheese !ubuntu
[12:55] <ikonia> xMorgawr: the desktop pager
[12:55] <arrenlex> My computer hangs for six or seven seconds (black screen) when X starts at boot. Can I remedy this?
[12:55] <Ahorner> !cheese
[12:55] <ikonia> RoundyT1: its a web site content manager/blogger
[12:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cheese - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:55] <Ashfire908> where is the .iso of the ubuntu archives?
[12:55] <xMorgawr> ikonia: is it a program?
[12:55] <RoundyT1> dang. i just installed it for no reason.
[12:55] <Ahorner> !anything
[12:55] <Seveas> xMorgawr, rightclick on the 2 desktop thing and tell it you want more :)
[12:55] <bruenig> Kevlar, you did get the bin right
[12:55] <ikonia> xMorgawr: yup
[12:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anything - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:56] <Ahorner> lol
[12:56] <ikonia> Ahorner: stop messing with the bot
[12:56] <arrenlex> bruenig: why are you helping people install realplayer?! *horror*
[12:56] <mok> ikonia: yeah thats what people said but i just cant figure it out.. im sorta new to linux.. could you help me out?
[12:56] <Seveas> ikonia, he stopped :)
[12:56] <ikonia> Seveas: thanks
[12:56] <xMorgawr> mm..i'll try Seveas and ikonia thanks
[12:56] <bruenig> arrenlex, yeah but if someone wants help with garbage, they are entitled I guess
[12:56] <mr_interweb> help for the Samba inept.  help :)
[12:56] <Kevlar> bruenig:  I got the tar.bz2
[12:56] <iehova> Hi, i have a slight problem with the sound on ubuntu 6.10 - both altering it via the keyboard and system tray actually alters the headphone volume, not speaker volume. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
[12:56] <bruenig> Kevlar, go get the bin
[12:56] <ikonia> mok: search the ubuntu repo's there are some toshiba tools for tosh laptops, also check the forums there maybe something on there
[12:56] <RoundyT1> ikonia, Hey, what's a good site setup? I've heard of PHPNuke and Seagull framework...???
[12:56] <arrenlex> bruenig: You at least told them it was utter garbage with tons of awesome free alternatives, I hope?
[12:56] <salman> my update-notifier crashes as soon as it starts. what do i do with the bugreport
[12:56] <mok> ok
[12:56] <Kevlar> bruenig:  okay
[12:56] <mok> ikonia:ok thanks
[12:56] <ikonia> RoundyT1: again - this is nothing to do with ubuntu
[12:57] <kitche> Kevler: just so you know you can install Helix which is realplayer also
[12:57] <simonsays> can anyone help me with my nvidia installation?
[12:57] <Kevlar> bruenig:  someone told me tar.bz2 is for ubuntu, is that wrong?
[12:57] <Ashfire908> where is the .iso of the ubuntu archives?
[12:57] <Arrick> wow, why am I downloading when I have 6.06 here?
[12:57] <nick_> where do I find the procedure for installing drivers?
[12:57] <Seveas> !nvidia | simonsays
[12:57] <ubotu> simonsays: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:57] <bruenig> Kevlar, just use the bin
[12:57] <ikonia> simonsays: have you read the docs from ubotu
[12:57] <bruenig> Kevlar, unless you want to figure out where all the files go, because I don't
[12:57] <Seveas> Ashfire908, there are no 120GB discs, so there is no iso containing everything
[12:57] <mr_interweb> RoudyT1, Symfony is the best PHP framework. If you don't have to use PHP, use Ruby on Rails.
[12:57] <mok> ikonia: ok my repos have nothing about toshiba
[12:57] <Ashfire908> Kevlar, it's just a compression method
[12:58] <MindRiot> Hey I just got Beryl Setup and my title bars arent showing up
[12:58] <simonsays> yes i have but im confused about which module i should install, there seems to be 2 for 386, do i get them both?
[12:58] <Kevlar> bruenig:  lol nope
[12:58] <MindRiot> like to close windows
[12:58] <Kevlar> oh
[12:58] <ikonia> mok: check the forum you may need additional repo's
[12:58] <RoundyT1> ikonia, im sorry, i am just not getting answers and i figured you would have a good opinion.
[12:58] <Seveas> simonsays, how old is your video card?
[12:58] <sunexplodes> I have a couple feisty questions. Is this the best place to ask them?
[12:58] <simonsays> its a geforce4 mx420
[12:58] <ikonia> RoundyT1: join #wordpress or #webdev or anything - something more relevent
[12:58] <bruenig> sunexplodes, no it isn't
[12:58] <ikonia> sunexplodes: ubuntu+1
[12:58] <Seveas> sunexplodes, #ubuntu+1
[12:58] <simonsays> quite old
[12:58] <RoundyT1> lol ok sorry agian.
[12:58] <seeker1> is there a way to make my own USB case so I can use my old 3.5inch PC Hard drive to connect to my laptop?
[12:58] <Arrick> how do I get the server install with 6.06?
[12:58] <sunexplodes> thanks, appreciate it
[12:58] <Kevlar> bruenig:  I got the bin, I right clicked "OPEN" on it and got an error
[12:58] <ikonia> RoundyT1: don't worry - it just keeps the channel clean and on topic
[12:59] <bruenig> Kevlar, chmod +x it, and them ./whatever.bin it
[12:59] <bruenig> then*
[12:59] <Seveas> simonsays, the docs ubotu links to should tell you whether you ned nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-legacy
[12:59] <Seveas> !nvidia
[12:59] <ikonia> RoundyT1: plus it doesn't look like your using the channel for general questions and people like my don't get fed up
[12:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:59] <kingcobra> seeker1 buy 1
[12:59] <Ashfire908> an iso of the I386 most recent stable versions
[12:59] <Jowi> seeker1, easier and cheaper to buy these days.
[12:59] <TheManiacKY> I know this will sound really "teen chat" ish. But I'm curious the deminagraphic of everyone in the chat. It be neat if ubuntu irc could chat like twitter vision.. I'll start. I'm 26 from Elizabethtown, Kentucky.
[12:59] <MindRiot> I got no titlebars in Beryl help?
[12:59] <simonsays> well ive got to the point where it says "Find the appropriate module for your kernel. " and im unsure which one to choose
[12:59] <Seveas> Ashfire908, releases.ubuntu.com
[12:59] <ikonia> TheManiacKY: this is a support channel
[12:59] <kingcobra> nick_ u get ur card workin
[01:00] <Seveas> MindRiot, your window decorator doesn't work
[01:00] <Seveas> kingcobra, english please..
[01:00] <ikonia> TheManiacKY: ubuntu-offtopic is available for general chat
[01:00] <magnanimous> TheManiacKY: demographic includes income
[01:00] <bruenig> and race
[01:00] <kingcobra> Seveas, sorry
[01:00] <Jowi> TheManiacKY, have you seen how many people are in here? ;)
[01:00] <MindRiot> Seveas: what do i do?
[01:00] <mateus-br_> lol @tuxkart
[01:00] <mateus-br_> very funny
[01:00] <TheManiacKY> ikonia Oh ok
[01:00] <kingcobra> nick_, did you get your card working?
[01:00] <Seveas> MindRiot, did you run it via beryl-manager?
[01:00] <TheManiacKY> Jowi YUp thats why I though it be neat ;)
[01:00] <MindRiot> ummm ya
[01:01] <MindRiot> i think so
[01:01] <mr_interweb> I tried getting help on #samba, but I think someone or something killed everyone on that entire chanel.  Is this a place for an Ubuntu 6.10 samba question?
[01:01] <nick_> No
[01:01] <mr_interweb> where then
[01:01] <Seveas> MindRiot, then you have the beryl icon in your statusbar. Poke at it and select another window decorator
[01:01] <ikonia> mr_interweb: depends
[01:01] <nick_> i was just reading the ubuntu web site
[01:01] <xMorgawr> mr_interwebe, i might be a big noob but what's samba? DX
[01:01] <nick_> how do I do it
[01:01] <bruenig> !samba
[01:01] <xMorgawr> mr_interweb*
[01:01] <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
[01:01] <xMorgawr> thanks XD
[01:01] <Seveas> mr_interweb, as long as you run samba on ubuntu: sure :)
[01:01] <marks> could someone please tell me how to replace accidentally removed conf files with apt-get or synaptic? doing a reinstall will not regenerate removed conf files
[01:01] <hartigan> acorn22: did you solve your resolution problem?
[01:01] <Kevlar> bruenig:  , chmod +x it, and them ./whatever.bin it??????
[01:01] <DVortex> windows pretty much never cooperates with samba though
[01:02] <mr_interweb> I didn't know you could run samba on windows
[01:02] <ikonia> DVortex: yes it does all the time
[01:02] <Seveas> marks, purge and reinstall the package
[01:02] <ikonia> mr_interweb: you don't
[01:02] <bruenig> marks, conf files are sometimes created when you first run the application. So run the application
[01:02] <magnanimous> DVortex: Windows Vista cooeprates even less
[01:02] <salman> how can i change the firefox icon at the top left?
[01:02] <mr_interweb> I didn't think so
[01:02] <simonsays> before i get to the bit about chosing legacy or not it tells me to find appropriate module, i assume thats 386 for me... but there are more than one 386, which one is the best to choose?
[01:02] <Kevlar> bruenig: chmod +x FILENAME.BIN           then     ?
[01:02] <Ashfire908> where can i find ubuntu drivers?
[01:02] <ikonia> Ashfire908: for what ?
[01:02] <bruenig> Kevlar, ./FILENAME.BIN
[01:02] <aoirthoir> I ubuntu do u?
[01:02] <Seveas> Ashfire908, /lib/modules*
[01:02] <ikonia> oooh man, another one
[01:02] <ikonia> aoirthoir: what ??
[01:02] <Ashfire908> one moment
[01:02] <Kevlar> bruenig:  it changes it to a another .bin file?
[01:02] <mr_interweb> Windows is a bitch.  It's networking is broken
[01:02] <kingcobra> nick_, what card do you have
[01:02] <marks> Seveas: purging it will break dependencies though. is there a way to do it without having to remove all those packages that depend on it?
[01:02] <bruenig> Kevlar, it shouldn't
[01:02] <MindRiot> Seveas Right now iam using the Metacity Gnome but when i choose Beryl it kills the title bars now thats on Windowmanager now in Window Decorator the only thing i can slect is Standard Beryl Decorator (Emerald) but i dont think i installed Emerald or something
[01:03] <Seveas> !languag | mr_interweb
[01:03] <nick_> linksys wma54g
[01:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about languag - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:03] <aoirthoir> Windows is the best OS EVER....if you like viruses:)
[01:03] <Kevlar> bruenig:  okay
[01:03] <ubuntu_noob> winrar
[01:03] <Seveas> MindRiot, try installing emerald-themes
[01:03] <jrib> MindRiot: try reloading it, that happens to me too
[01:03] <bruenig> !unrar
[01:03] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[01:03] <xMorgawr> Windows itself is a virus...
[01:03] <mr_interweb> LOL
[01:03] <Seveas> aoirthoir, please avoid offtopic talking in 1050-people channels
[01:03] <ikonia> can we drop the windows trashing
[01:03] <jetscreamer> so 'feisty' is the beta 7.04
[01:03] <MindRiot> reload no go
[01:03] <Seveas> xMorgawr, same to you
[01:03] <MindRiot> Seveas whats the command again?
[01:03] <Seveas> jetscreamer, correct
[01:03] <xMorgawr> Seveas sorry XD
[01:03] <aoirthoir> xMorgawr: amen.
[01:03] <Seveas> MindRiot, apt-get intall emerald-themes
[01:03] <Ashfire908> Seveas,  RAZR
[01:04] <john_> Hello, Im having a problem setting up my fglrx on my 6.10
[01:04] <magnanimous> whoa.  who just said feist is the beta of 7.04
[01:04] <magnanimous> Feist is currently in Beta
[01:04] <jrm4> I've got a box on my TV, but I don't really care about recording TV--MythTV is nice but seems a bit bulky; any ideas for a keyboard driven Video/Music/Mame player--either one program or an easy window manager+player?
[01:04] <shane634> john_, what problem?
[01:04] <magnanimous> the actual release of 7.10 will be called Feisty
[01:04] <ikonia> magnanimous: we know
[01:04] <Seveas> marks, dpkg has a switch to ignore dependencies
[01:04] <bruenig> magnanimous, 7.04
[01:04] <shnastybiznastic> john_: what's up?  I just got fglrx up last night
[01:04] <jetscreamer> actually i just asked if feisty was ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu-releases/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-alternate-i386.iso
[01:04] <Seveas> marks, dpkg -P --force-depends
[01:04] <MindRiot> Seveas:is says its already at the newest version
[01:04] <Seveas> MindRiot, then you have installed it :D
[01:05] <MindRiot> but i dont see then Emerald manager the Green icon
[01:05] <simonsays> can anyone advice me which module to get please for restricted modules??
[01:05] <magnanimous> 7.04, that's what I meant
[01:05] <MindRiot> like i have on some live cd's
[01:05] <magnanimous> ikonia:  i didn't catch the whole thing, sorry
[01:05] <Seveas> MindRiot, try #ubuntu-effects -- less people but they know more of this
[01:05] <marks> Seveas: dpkg also has a command to generate new conf files. i was hoping to use synaptic or apt-get so i wouldnt have to manually find the .deb file for the package
[01:05] <MindRiot> nm i see it
[01:05] <shane634> simonsays, uname -r in terminal will tell you
[01:05] <Kevlar> bruenig:  laptop@laptop2:~/Desktop$  hxplay-1.1.0.2985-linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-i586.bin
[01:05] <Kevlar> bash: hxplay-1.1.0.2985-linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-i586.bin: command not found
[01:05] <magnanimous> jrm4: have you tried LinuxMCE?
[01:05] <Seveas> marks, didn't know dpkg had that, unless that happens with dpkg-reconfigure :)
[01:05] <Kevlar> command not found
[01:05] <magnanimous> linuxMCE.com
[01:06] <bruenig> Kevlar, ./filename.bin
[01:06] <Arrick> hey, I like the new installer for ubuntu
[01:06] <jrm4> magnanimous aha i'll check it
[01:06] <shane634> Arrick, yes it is much nicer now
[01:06] <ikonia> Seveas: it is dpkg-reconfiugre
[01:06] <kingcobra> you there nick_
[01:06] <nick_> yep
[01:06] <magnanimous> jrm4: MythTv is one of its compeonents, but it's got a ton more
[01:06] <kingcobra> can u see the private chat nick_
[01:06] <Kevlar> laptop@laptop2:~/Desktop$ /home/laptop/Desktop chmod +x hxplay-1.1.0.2985-linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-i586.bin
[01:06] <Kevlar> bash: /home/laptop/Desktop: is a directory
[01:06] <magnanimous> jrm4: like home automation, and menus that actually look nice
[01:07] <Kevlar> is  a directory?
[01:07] <ikonia> yes
[01:07] <ikonia> it is a dir
[01:07] <bruenig> Kevlar, chmod +x hxplay-1.1.0.2985-linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-i586.bin && ./hxplay-1.1.0.2985-linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-i586.bin
[01:07] <Kevlar> I forgot to take oout the chmod
[01:07] <Kevlar> ahh
[01:07] <Kevlar> thanks
[01:07] <Arrick> you meant to say you are pointing at my cloak didnt you jetscreamer ?
[01:07] <jetscreamer> no...
[01:08] <ikonia> Kevlar: its very unlikey that file will run though
[01:08] <Kevlar> Enter the complete path to the directory where you want
[01:08] <Kevlar> Helix Player to be installed.  You must specify the full
[01:08] <Kevlar> pathname of the directory and have write privileges to
[01:08] <Kevlar> the chosen directory
[01:08] <Arrick> the question I have, is why hasnt this disc asked me if I want to install the server version yet?
[01:08] <bruenig> !paste
[01:08] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:08] <nick_> yep send a request
[01:08] <Kevlar> bruenig:  It still wants me to pick where to put it
[01:08] <bruenig> Kevlar, so do what it says
[01:08] <kingcobra> nick_ can you see the private chat
[01:08] <kitche> Arrick: the desktop cd doesn't you need the alternet one
[01:08] <ikonia> Kevlar: so pick
[01:08] <nick_> no
[01:08] <Arrick> what the heck
[01:08] <nick_> where is it
[01:08] <jrib> marks: apparently, -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confmiss   would work with apt-get
[01:08] <bruenig> Kevlar, control c, and then sudo ./filename.bin
[01:08] <nick_> have send what I thought was
[01:08] <Kevlar> I dont know where to pick
[01:08] <kingcobra> can you open a chat with me then
[01:08] <Kevlar> obviously I dont know where
[01:08] <jrm4> magnanimous: nice..I might just try to see if I can get the apps that come with it?
[01:09] <Arrick> you mean you cant type in server during the install kitche ?
[01:09] <ikonia> bruenig: I don't think it will work beacuse its build against glibc 2.2 and gcc3.X
[01:09] <jetscreamer> Arrick: apparently there's a server .iso and a desktop .iso
[01:09] <Arrick> thats retarded
[01:09] <bruenig> ikonia, oh perhaps
[01:09] <kingcobra> what client you using
[01:09] <jetscreamer> on the full blown ones at least
[01:09] <bruenig> I thought you meant the bin wouldn't work
[01:09] <ikonia> Arrick: you use the server cd to install the server or the desktop cd to install the desktop - simple
[01:09] <ikonia> bruenig: no, sorry I meant when its installed
[01:09] <magnanimous> jrm4: Cool.  I don't know much more about it, it only hit Digg yesterday
[01:09] <Arrick> so I *have* download the server because they dont offer it on the site?
[01:09] <Arrick> man that bites
[01:09] <kingcobra> nick_,
[01:09] <nick_> no
[01:09] <jetscreamer> no idea
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: Mr. Obvious, long time listener, first time caller
[01:09] <ikonia> Arrick: the server cd is offered on the site
[01:09] <Ashfire908> Seveas, Motorola USB Modem, Version 3.4.0.0
[01:09] <ikonia> Arrick: you just didn't read
[01:09] <nick_> cant you send it to me
[01:09] <Arrick> not through shippit ikonia
[01:10] <ikonia> Arrick: I think they do
[01:10] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: sory what
[01:10] <Arrick> nope
[01:10] <Arrick> they give out one CD and thats it for it
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: you must not be a bob and tom fan.
[01:10] <ikonia> Arrick: well download it
[01:10] <kingcobra> type my name before u type nick_ what client are you using
[01:10] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: don't get it in the uk
[01:10] <greig__> with vmware player with xp installed, do u have to/can u install gfx drivers( ATi ) --------
[01:11] <nick_> kingcobra xchat
[01:11] <pros1> anyone familiar with public nfs shares that can be mounted anywhere on the internet?
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: they have thi8s little skit they do, called "Mr Obvious", where people call in and ask ridiculously simple questions(staged of course), and the caller always starts with that line, "Hi Mr. Obviously, long time listener, first time caller"
[01:11] <shane634> greig__, you don't need vmware to install drivers
[01:11] <ikonia> pros1: you want one, or you want to set one up
[01:11] <simonsays> hey i did what it said... not sure if i have downloaded the right modules, because when i type sudo nvidia-xconfig in terminal after downloading the legacy one it says command not found
[01:11] <kingcobra> have u got column on left nick_
[01:11] <magnanimous> greig__:  that's an interesting question, have you tried it?
[01:11] <xMorgawr> mm.. guys, what happens if i do ctrl+alt+backspace? i mean... i heard it restarts X but.. what does it do?
[01:11] <pros1> I'm just looking for public servers to connect to
[01:11] <ikonia> kingcobra: can we please stop the irc lessons
[01:11] <Kevlar> bruenig:  that did it, it was the sudo thing
[01:11] <pros1> A list or something
[01:11] <ikonia> pros1: I doubt there are any
[01:11] <nick_> kingcobra yes your name is in it
[01:12] <ikonia> pros1: no-one would be dumb enough to run nfs over the internet
[01:12] <pros1> why do you say that?
[01:12] <kingcobra> ikonia, how should i get him to open a simple private chat
[01:12] <greig__> magnanimous : i have tried and it says a file or something is missing, i cannot remember the exact error message
[01:12] <ikonia> pros1: because its not really meant for the interenet
[01:12] <marks> this is ridiculous that it's not an option to replace configuration files
[01:12] <pros1> That's what I've read
[01:12] <pros1> ok thanks
[01:12] <ikonia> kingcobra: join a private room
[01:12] <kingcobra> ikonia, ok thanx
[01:12] <magnanimous> greig__:  did you have VMWare tools installed... because I know that sometimes that conflicts with other modules (gggrrrr)
[01:12] <xMorgawr> mm.. guys, what happens if i do ctrl+alt+backspace? i mean... i heard it restarts X but.. what does it do?
[01:13] <arrenlex> xMorgawr: Restarts x.
[01:13] <shane634> xMorgawr, it restarts x
[01:13] <xMorgawr> yes but... what happens?
[01:13] <zero^> yeah it restarts x
[01:13] <arrenlex> xMorgawr: X stops Then it starts again
[01:13] <magnanimous> greig__:  but from what I've heard, no, it doesn't work in VMWare, because you're not given enough access thruogh the Virtual machine
[01:13] <shane634> xMorgawr, you log out and back in
[01:13] <mjr> actually, it shuts the X server down. gdm (or kdm) then restarts it. :)
[01:13] <kingcobra> nick_, type /join #a
[01:13] <xMorgawr> oh.. i see XD
[01:13] <magnanimous> greig__:  I've always been interested to try though
[01:13] <Kevlar> HOw do I share a screenshot??
[01:13] <bruenig> xMorgawr, you see a series of 1's and 0's are sent....
[01:13] <greig__> magnanimous : as far as i know i havent, i installed it from synaptic, so unless that installs them, i havent manually installed them
[01:13] <Kevlar> Is there a screen shot share website?
[01:13] <ikonia> Kevlar: put it on a website
[01:13] <Pho3niX^ReBorN> Hi
[01:13] <ikonia> Kevlar: like imageshack
[01:14] <xMorgawr> sorry for my newbie questions :P i'd rather ask than try myself, i don't want to make it explode or something XD
[01:14] <Kevlar> Is there one like with the ubuntu text?
[01:14] <ikonia> Kevlar: no
[01:14] <tbodine> Upgrading to Feisty is a real pain..
[01:14] <Jellocube> It's all good; we all were like that at one point or another.
[01:14] <nick_> type /join #a
[01:14] <shane634> xMorgawr, it won't explode too easily
[01:14] <Pho3niX^ReBorN> Just a quick question.  Is there a DVD version of the 7.04 Beta?
[01:14] <magnanimous> greig__:  oh... you got VMWare player... I don't like that one.... I would recomend trying it on VMWare Server... much better :)
[01:14] <bruenig> xMorgawr, do you really think that something that could cause harm would be keyboard shortcutted
[01:14] <Jellocube> tbodine: Are you using the GUI upgrade?
[01:14] <ikonia> tbodine: its beta - what do you expect
[01:14] <Seveas> Pho3niX^ReBorN, no
[01:14] <MindRiot> !pastebin
[01:14] <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)
[01:14] <kingcobra> :)
[01:14] <Pho3niX^ReBorN> Ok thanx =)
[01:14] <Jellocube> Wait, scratch that.
[01:14] <magnanimous> greig__:  though, I don't think that it's in apt-get... you can just get it form VMWares website
[01:14] <tbodine> ikonia, oh, I know, I just hoped it wouldn't be so annoying :P
[01:14] <tbodine> Jellocube, um, no..
[01:14] <greig__> magnanimous : dont u have to pay for that? thats was my impression looking at the website
[01:15] <kingcobra> '/join #a' without quotes nick_
[01:15] <bansh3> The program 'installer-gui' received an X Window System error.
[01:15] <tbodine> Jellocube, just updating my sources.list and did update/upgrade/dist-upgrade and what have you..
[01:15] <ikonia> nick_:  - if you can't use irc - use google to learn the commands
[01:15] <magnanimous> greig__:  no, you just have to register (and they don't verify or ask for a credit card or anything)
[01:15] <Kevlar> bruenig:  http://i3.tinypic.com/30uycgm.png
[01:15] <jrib> Pho3niX^ReBorN: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/7.04/beta/
[01:15] <Jellocube> I tbodine: I realized that right after I said it.  7.04 is still beta, so there is no GUI upgrade yet.
[01:15] <tbodine> And Beep Media Player is acting up, I'll have to look into that..
[01:15] <Kevlar> This is the error I keep getting
[01:15] <Kevlar> http://i3.tinypic.com/30uycgm.png
[01:15] <xMorgawr> bruenig: in windows xp, alt+f4 made you exit from whatever you were doing, and it was shortcutted :P
[01:15] <bruenig> Kevlar, no shock
[01:15] <Kevlar> You dont have to sign up for tiny pic
[01:15] <bruenig> Kevlar, install totem
[01:15] <Kevlar> ugh
[01:15] <magnanimous> greig__:  what you DO have to pay for is the cool products like VMWare workstation... I used that at a clients site once... incredible... and expensive... but the best thing I've seen EVER
[01:16] <greig__> magnanimous : what differance's are there between the one i have and the one you recommend?
[01:16] <bruenig> xMorgawr, that doesn't cause any harm
[01:16] <bruenig> xMorgawr, control + q makes you exit out of some programs
[01:16] <bruenig> no harm
[01:16] <xMorgawr> bruenig: still, it's annoying... i'd rather ask first ^^
[01:16] <xMorgawr> thanks for the info
[01:16] <magnanimous> greig__: the difference is that player has less functionality, is less powerful, allows less access tot he hardware, and crashes more often
[01:16] <Kevlar> http://i3.tinypic.com/33n8bpg.png
[01:17] <tbodine> Can anyone suggest a better music player like Beep(MP) and XMMS, but actually works without randomly "pausing" songs?
[01:17] <magnanimous> greig__:  and server allows you to host a virtual machine across the network to other VMWare servers or VMware players
[01:17] <Kevlar> hate totem
[01:17] <tbodine> I'm not looking for a fullfledged management, just a player.
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> totem is the devil
[01:17] <greig__> magnanimous : does it use more resources? im only running a athlonxp 1800 with 256 ram u see
[01:17] <Kevlar> Does anyone know here how to make Firefox do what you want?
[01:17] <Kevlar> I want FIREFOX to use the program i want it to yous
[01:17] <Kevlar> use
[01:17] <ikonia> Kevlar: ask specifics not time wasting generic questions
[01:17] <albacker> how do i change date in command line ?
[01:17] <Pho3niX^ReBorN> Another question, might be a bit complicated =/ m'kay  I have a DVD with the feisty-dvd-i386.iso burned to it.  (I can link to the page where its available if needed).  I fixed the problem I was having with the xorg.conf file (changing Device from "nv" to "Vesa")  But now it hangs on "Running Local Services: rc.local" something like that.  And ideas?
[01:17] <Kevlar> okay
[01:17] <magnanimous> greig__:  oh... it may, I'm not sure
[01:17] <jrib> albacker: the 'date' command
[01:17] <ikonia> Kevlar: look in preferences and in gnome prefered applications
[01:17] <tbodine> Kevlar, what are you looking to make it do?
[01:18] <Kevlar> I want FIREFOX to use HELIX or MPLAYER to run/play RTSP protocol files (real medial)
[01:18] <VonGuard> lately, my edgy laptop won't recognize my track pad when it wakes from suspend
[01:18] <magnanimous> greig__:  actually I would assume it does... :( sorry
[01:18] <atoponce> albacker: what do you mean, 'change the date'?
[01:18] <bruenig> Kevlar, http://i12.tinypic.com/2qsatn6.png
[01:18] <Kevlar> ikonia not there, cant "add"
[01:18] <ikonia> Kevlar: pardon ?
[01:18] <albacker> jrib, yes, but this date -s "25 MAR 2007 02:17:00" is not working
[01:18] <Kevlar> ikonia, cant add a file type
[01:18] <tbodine> Kevlar, try making sure that the mozilla-helix pluging is installed, or the mplayer, whichever you prefer, and try looking in the Firefox prefernces for datatypes or something like that.
[01:18] <ikonia> kelnoky_: you that in gnome
[01:18] <Kevlar> bruenig:  i know, it only does that for totem
[01:18] <bruenig> Kevlar, ergo...
[01:19] <Kevlar> lol
[01:19] <Kevlar> tbodine, I do "about:plugins" in the command line for firefox and its there
[01:19] <greig__> magnanimous : is the viewer ok to use  just as a program to occasionally mess with windows as apposed to installing the version u are advising? im wanting to learn more on linux anyway and stay away from it, its too tempting to just fall back on it
[01:19] <Kevlar> but it still wont recognise it
[01:19] <hartigan> does https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia still apply to feisty?
[01:20] <xMorgawr> guys, i installed wine, how do i start it?
[01:20] <tbodine> Kevlar, try looking for "file types" or something of the like in the Firefox preferences, it should say something about opening certain file types with certain progrms.
[01:20] <tbodine> programs*
[01:20] <shane634> hartigan, is should
[01:20] <bruenig> xMorgawr, wine /path/to/whatever.exe
[01:20] <xMorgawr> thanks
[01:20] <Kevlar> tbodine, I do , it will allow you to CHANGE the file association, but not ADD a new one, and its not there.
[01:20] <hartigan> shane634: thank you
[01:20] <Nitze1> Anyone running feisty and nfs willing to try 'sudo showmount --no-headers -e localhost' and letting me know if it hangs for ten seconds before giving results?
[01:20] <bruenig> Kevlar, so install totem, have it associate with totem, and then modify it
[01:21] <jrib> albacker: I've never used the date command to set the date, but this page has examples that use a different format: http://www.linuxsa.org.au/tips/time.html .  Try setting it like that
[01:21] <magnanimous> greig__:  cool.  You'll like Linux better.  I understand why you would want to run windows in a VM
[01:21] <Seveas> Nitze1, nfs doing odd things smells like not having portmap installed
[01:21] <atoponce> Nitze1: feisty support is in #ubuntu+1
[01:21] <Kevlar> bruenig:  unfortunately it doesnt show up in the preferences when its there, go on, look in your preferences, you wont see rtsp or totem
[01:21] <Seveas> Nitze1, especially in feisty :)
[01:21] <magnanimous> greig__:  I'm sure the VMWare player is ok to use... but windows takes up A LOT of resources... so eventually that computer won't handle running two operating systems at once
[01:21] <bruenig> Kevlar, I have never used rtsp though so that would make sense
[01:21] <tbodine> Kevlar, let me try to look, I'll be back in a little bit too..
[01:21] <Nitze1> seveas: ok, off to ubuntu+1, thanks
[01:21] <greig__> magnanimous : can u recommend any cool programs on linux
[01:22] <bruenig> Kevlar, if you must open, mplayer and then copy and paste the link
[01:22] <ikonia> Nitze1: the hang is normally when it struggles to resolve its self or portmapper can't map ports to the hostname
[01:22] <bruenig> I mean why you won't just install totem is beyond me
[01:22] <greig__> magnanimous : yea i know, not to worry tho:)
[01:22] <magnanimous> greig__:  YES, depending on what you think is cool:  if you like Music, then try Amarok ... it's kind of like iTunes
[01:22] <jrib> albacker: the man page also describes the format to use
[01:22] <choco> hi, i was wondering if anyone can help me out with the beryl install on ubuntu? i ran the setup file from beryls site but the setup isn't working yet... i missed something. nvidia drivers
[01:22] <atoponce> magnanimous: or songbird. cool stuff! :)
[01:23] <bruenig> songbird is bloated crap
[01:23] <magnanimous> yes, songbird definately has many fans
[01:23] <Pho3niX^ReBorN> I assume I would be better off asking my question about fiesty in the ubuntu+1 channel right?
[01:23] <atoponce> bruenig: meh. it's the mozilla base, i guess. i like it though
[01:23] <greig__> magnanimous is it within synaptic?
[01:23] <Kevlar> bruenig:  http://i3.tinypic.com/30iwe48.png
[01:23] <atoponce> Pho3niX^ReBorN: yeah
[01:23] <Kevlar> tbodine: :  http://i3.tinypic.com/30iwe48.png
[01:23] <ikonia> Pho3niX^ReBorN: for the last time - yes
[01:23] <magnanimous> greig__:  if you need to do work, then openOffice is very powerful,  if you don't like it try KOffice (it's still not quite ready)
[01:23] <bruenig> Kevlar, what is that supposed to tell me
[01:23] <Pho3niX^ReBorN> lol sorry
[01:23] <magnanimous> greig__:  yes, this is all in synaptic
[01:24] <atoponce> Pho3niX^ReBorN: no worries
[01:24] <Pho3niX^ReBorN> ^_^
[01:24] <magnanimous> greig__:  and in add-remove programs
[01:24] <magnanimous> greig__:  actually... that's what I would recomend... just go through add-remove programs and read the descriptions of the programs there
[01:24] <magnanimous> there's so many cool programs to play with there
[01:24] <greig__> magnanimous : cool thanks, im just wanting to try all diff programs, not sure whats what tho
[01:24] <mr_interweb> I just pimp slapped my windows xp box into submission with my noob Samba skilz. Woot.  I can now die a somewhat happy man.
[01:24] <killermach_> anyone have good info on installing to a usb drive?
[01:25] <Kevlar> bruenig:  1. cant add new, and 2. cant see filetype to alter....and In yours you wont see totem
[01:25] <magnanimous> greig__:  there are descriptions of what each program is inside of add-remove :)
[01:25] <atoponce> mr_interweb: lol. congrats
[01:25] <ikonia> killermach_: I don't recommend that
[01:25] <bruenig> Kevlar, and show me where exactly I disagreed with that
[01:25] <magnanimous> greig__:  if you're interested just install it... if you don't like it then just remove it :) and it's gone, just like that
[01:25] <bruenig> install totem just for rtsp, simple solution
[01:25] <greig__> magnanimous : thank you, i appreciate it:)
[01:25] <mr_interweb> thanks
[01:25] <killermach_> ikonia: you thoughts please?
[01:25] <magnanimous> greig__:  also, if you ever get wireless.. I can't live without "Network Manager"
[01:25] <magnanimous> greig__:  it's the easiest way to get around all the woes of networking
[01:26] <greig__> magnanimous : i'll TRY remember that, not wireless atm
[01:26] <ikonia> killermach_: I don't advise don't that as a.) the boot sector can be a problem b.) the usb driver CANNOT be swapped from machine to machine c.) the machines bios has to support boot from usb for true full install d.) the space is limiting
[01:26] <magnanimous> greig__:  no problem.  and enjoy Linux.  It's really a beautiful operating system, and the idealogy is even more beautiful
[01:26] <bruenig> ideology
[01:26] <magnanimous> greig__:  because Linux will only be around for maybe 20 or 30 years..... Open source philosophy will be around for hundreds of years
[01:26] <Kevlar> bruenig:  this is not a debate, Im just sharing info with you....helpful or not.
[01:27] <bruenig> magnanimous, I would like to see how you make that 20-30 year prediction
[01:27] <Kevlar> you decide
[01:27] <greig__> magnanimous : well its all about me getting my head around it all now really
[01:27] <simonsays> just want to say thankyou to the people who helped me install my nvidia, got it working now :)
[01:27] <killermach_> ikonia: yep.. you named just about every roadblock I run across :)
[01:27] <bruenig> Kevlar, ok very unhelpful information that wastes time
[01:27] <ikonia> magnanimous: please don't make random comments about the future - this is a support channel
[01:27] <ikonia> bruenig: agreed
[01:28] <magnanimous> bruenig: I'm just guessing... it could be 5 years,  it could be 100... I'm just saying that the philosophy behind linux is more important than the single result itself
[01:28] <magnanimous> ikonia:  point taken.  sorry
[01:28] <Kevlar> bruenig: glad im communicating with you.
[01:28] <bruenig> Kevlar, alright well I told you the solution, so no more prefixing my name
[01:28] <Kennymuse> ciao
[01:28] <_`XeOn_> !nvidia
[01:28] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:29] <Kennymuse> per caso
[01:29] <sstchur> I can this error: "ImportError: No module named gconf" when I try to launch Istanbul.  Anyone know why?
[01:29] <Kevlar> bruenig:  its not a solution, as I told you totem isnt acceptible. thanks for playing.
[01:29] <Kevlar> douchebag
[01:29] <Kennymuse> ce qualcuno che sa come si impostano le variabili d'ambiente in linux?
[01:29] <shane634> wow
[01:29] <atoponce> Kennymuse: english channel
[01:29] <ikonia> Seveas: each minute that passes I think you are reading my mind more and more
[01:30] <Seveas> !it | Kennymuse
[01:30] <ubotu> Kennymuse: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[01:30] <Seveas> ikonia, heh :)
[01:30] <Kennymuse> ok tanks
[01:30] <arrenlex> bruenig: lol, what was that about?
[01:30] <magnanimous> yeah,  what was all that about?
[01:30] <shane634> some people don't appreciate free help at all
[01:31] <Seveas> shane634, or all of us really are douchebags :)
[01:31] <mseney> if you have 6.10 installed can you upgrade to the beta feisty without a complete format?
[01:31] <atoponce> Seveas: how did you recognize that was italian? his ip?
[01:31] <MindRiot> I want to tell everyone here who has been helping me out I really appreciate yall, well Everyone thank you very much for the all the help..
[01:31] <ikonia> I thought John Edwards was the biggest douche of all
[01:31] <Seveas> atoponce, I speak a little italian :)
[01:31] <shane634> i donate my time because i may be able to help someone else
[01:31] <ikonia> atoponce: he spoke in italian
[01:31] <atoponce> Seveas: cool
[01:31] <atoponce> very nice
[01:31] <magnanimous> shane634:  those are the same people who don't appreciate documentation
[01:32] <arrenlex> Does ubuntu have any fancy guides for compiling from kernel.org?
[01:32] <shane634> magnanimous, true
[01:32] <Seveas> ikonia, atoponce is american and amricans are not really known to speak many languages ;)
[01:32] <eilker> how can i check my open ports ? nmap ?
[01:32] <Seveas> eilker, netstat -utl
[01:32] <ikonia> Seveas: ahhhh
[01:32] <MindRiot> I appreciated it
[01:32] <simonsays> Question: what is best, using azures from repo, or some other means (someone suggested there was, as last time i installed it it closed after splash), or utorrent through wine?
[01:32] <atoponce> Seveas: ouch! in my defense, though, i'm studying asl and spanish. i've dabbled in latin a bit too :)
[01:32] <magnanimous> eilker:  I just did that a few days ago... Ubuntu has no open ports by default
[01:33] <Seveas> atoponce, whaddayamean with asl?

[01:37] <houn> I just installed my first Ubuntu server.  Pretty painless.  I'm going through setting up everything, and correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there supposed to be a start script for ntp in /etc/init.d/ ?
[01:37] <bansh3> ikonia :) i want to know the cause for that error
[01:38] <zach__> jrib: apt-get remove mplayer mplayer-*  ?
[01:38] <FordCapri> is there a way to install xubuntu desktop without installing an xserver?
[01:38] <jrib> zach__: mozilla-mplayer is the package
[01:38] <bansh3> i`m running the installer into twm xterm console via vnc
[01:38] <ikonia> bansh3: I'm just surprised that a window manager uses a gui ot install
[01:38] <zach__> fordcapri: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop  ?
[01:38] <magnanimous> hhhmm,  now that's really bugging me, I can't remember that command, it wasn't netstat, it had a more convenient display... oh well.
[01:38] <Death_Sargent> all my icons and background are gone
[01:38] <zach__> jrib: thanks
[01:38] <atoponce> zach__: edit -> preferences -> content -> file types

[01:39] <Death_Sargent> they are not in use
[01:39] <piranesi> is there anyone wha has got a DWL-G122 wireless card?
[01:39] <jrib> Death_Sargent: is nautilus running?
[01:39] <magnanimous> !vim | magnanimous
[01:39] <Death_Sargent> one moment
[01:39] <bansh3> ikonia: still got same problem with many X aplications
[01:39] <shane634> piranesi, i have the b version
[01:39] <enderxim> When I turn the volume all the way up on the sliders, the sound gets really scratchy (even if the volume is low), but if you put it at about 80% on the sliders I can turn the my speakers all the way up without the distortion. Any idea why this is?
[01:39] <bansh3> i think i have some missing files
[01:39] <Death_Sargent> no
[01:39] <Death_Sargent> what do i do
[01:40] <ikonia> bansh3: sounds like X is not stable for you
[01:40] <ikonia> obviously
[01:40] <Death_Sargent> nautilis is not running
[01:40] <Death_Sargent> how do i start nautilus
[01:40] <csete> Hey All.  I think I upgraded to Feisty a bit too early.  I'm getting "VFS: cannot open root device errors".  I could really use some help fixing up my machine.
[01:40] <jrib> Death_Sargent: it probably crashed, go to places > home.  Nautilus is the name of the file browser
[01:40] <shane634> piranesi, what is the problem?
[01:40] <atoponce> csete: /join #ubuntu+1 for feisty support
[01:40] <csete> OK.  Thanks.

[01:41] <ikonia> bansh3: how can it be stable when it keeps crashing
[01:41] <zach__> atoponce: i have to change it from "mplayerplug-in 3.17" to vlc, but i don't know what exactly to put there
[01:41] <ikonia> bansh3:  ok you've deleted files and messed up X by the sounds of it
[01:41] <bansh3> ikonia when you will do rm -rf /usr  :)
[01:41] <blanky> sup guys
[01:41] <piranesi> shane634 when I use the rt73 driver the system becomes very unstable, lsusb shows the card sometimes ok and sometimes nothing, and after some minute the system freezes!!!!
[01:41] <Death_Sargent> thanks man
[01:41] <blanky> :')
[01:41] <ikonia> bansh3: if you've done that, I're re-install ubuntu to make sure /usr is populated correctly

[01:42] <shane634> piranesi, right click my name and open dialog
[01:42] <tbuss> I'm trying to setup a FTp server that only allows for authorized connections. I have been trying to use this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=429783#post429783l I'm in my first month of Linux and I was wondering if it is possible to this
[01:42] <bansh3> well ... my box is into a colocated datacenter and i can't just reinstall ubuntu
[01:42] <jamiejcumb> I keep getting i/o errors when writing to my fat partion. run fsck and got this dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
[01:42] <jamiejcumb> Got 12967936 bytes instead of 39053012 at 16384 anyone tell me whats up
[01:42] <mirra> is there a command or program that can take 2 text files and tell you the difference in their content
[01:42] <Kikkoman> Time to install Ubuntu. Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to dual boot Windows XP Sp2 and Ubuntu Edgy?
[01:42] <ikonia> bansh3: I would not trust that box at all
[01:42] <SeveredCross> Kikkoman: It's easy..
[01:42] <ikonia> bansh3: I would also not be running X on an internet facing server
[01:43] <atoponce> tbuss: is there a reason you are using an ftp server over an ssh server?
[01:43] <IndyGunFreak> Kikkoman: just boot the CD, it walks you through it
[01:43] <SeveredCross> Just install Edgy, grub should automatically pick up Windows XP.
[01:43] <atoponce> tbuss: the ssh server is *far* more secure
[01:43] <SeveredCross> If it doesn't, come back for instructions on how to add Windows XP to your grub.conf
[01:43] <bansh3> well ... i`m running it for 2 years and didn't have problems
[01:43] <Kikkoman> Well that's it though
[01:43] <ikonia> bansh3: but you've deleted /usr - you will have problems
[01:43] <bansh3> still i want to know what is the exact cause for that error ... any clue ?
[01:43] <Kikkoman> I would like to dual boot on two hard drives
[01:43] <SeveredCross> That's fine.
[01:43] <Kikkoman> Ubuntu being the slave drive
[01:43] <SeveredCross> Grub should detect that.
[01:43] <ikonia> bansh3: I'd guess the error is something to do with the fat that part of /usr is corrupted
[01:43] <rpc> bansh3 what error?
[01:43] <bansh3> ikonia: i have restored almost all files from /usr
[01:43] <tbuss> atoponce: I not real experienced with either. I ran into alot of trouble trying to configure the proftd.conf.
[01:44] <bansh3> The program 'installer-gui' received an X Window System error.
[01:44] <zach__> atoponce: there's qt, and qtl, which are configured to use a quicktime plugin, which i'm not sure exists, and the ones configured to use mplayer are mpeg, mpga, mp4 (which i believe is the culprit here), ogg, FLI, and au.  there's no file that lists vlc as the plugin
[01:44] <IndyGunFreak> Kikkoman: thats about the safest way to to install.
[01:44] <SeveredCross> Well, you can use ntldr, but it's WAY more complicated than just using Grub.
[01:44] <bansh3> This probably reflects a bug in the program.
[01:44] <SeveredCross> Ubuntu can be on a slave drive.
[01:44] <bansh3> The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
[01:44] <bansh3>   (Details: serial 196 error_code 1 request_code 146 minor_code 2)
[01:44] <ikonia> bansh3: alsmost isn't good enough and how do you know what it deleted to restore it
[01:44] <tbuss> atoponce: proftpd.conf
[01:44] <mirra> is there a command or program that can take 2 text files and tell you the difference in their content???
[01:44] <atoponce> zach__: for the ones that are using mplayer, change the action to use vlc
[01:44] <Kikkoman> >.> Last time it didn't work, so if I can get the whole step-by-step thing, that'd be great :P
[01:44] <ikonia> mirra: diff
[01:44] <mirra> thank y o u
[01:44] <atoponce> tbuss: i would suggest ssh over ftp
[01:45] <rpc> atoponce ftp over ssh i bet :)
[01:45] <atoponce> tbuss: maybe you can tell me more about why you want ftp
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> Kikkoman: i don't think there is a step by step... just follow the instructions.
[01:45] <Kikkoman> IndyGunFreak: guh, ok then
[01:45] <Kikkoman> But
[01:45] <Kikkoman> Where should GRUB be installed?
[01:45] <rpc> atoponce he just wants easy access to files without giving a shell to some user
[01:45] <atoponce> rpc: ssh is more secure. if you're setting up a *nix box, there is no reason why not to
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> Kikkoman: it will install automatically
[01:45] <atoponce> rpc: you can use ssh without the shell
[01:45] <zach__> atoponce: hold on, something's not right
[01:45] <SeveredCross> Grub picks its place automatically.
[01:45] <DjViper> anyone here using OpenDNS ?
[01:45] <tbuss> atoponce: I would like for my family members that are located miles away, to be able to download pictures and movies from my computer
[01:45] <Kikkoman> IndyGunFreak: Which partition? because windows is the second partition on the first hdd
[01:46] <rpc> atoponce there is... sftp takes lots of resources and isn't really easy to manage
[01:46] <shane634> piranesi, do you have another messenger?
[01:46] <ikonia> DjViper: opendns is nothing to with ubuntu
[01:46] <rpc> atoponce and why get paranoid over ftp at all?
[01:46] <SeveredCross> Kikkoman: And Ubuntu will be the first partition on the 2nd HDD?
[01:46] <Kikkoman> IndyGunFreak:Yes
[01:46] <DjViper> ikonia: I know
[01:46] <atoponce> rpc: because it's not secure.
[01:46] <ikonia> DjViper: so here is not the apporpiate place to ask
[01:46] <Kikkoman> oops
[01:46] <Kikkoman> ^^;
[01:46] <SeveredCross> Then Grub should probably be installed to hd(1,0)
[01:46] <rpc> atoponce so? http isn't either
[01:46] <Kikkoman> Ok
[01:46] <DjViper> ikonia: where should I ask?
[01:46] <Kikkoman> be right back
[01:46] <atoponce> tbuss: so family will just be downloading and not uploading?
[01:46] <ikonia> DjViper: not here
[01:46] <chuckf> tbuss, apache w/ gallery might be a better option
[01:46] <rpc> atoponce mail isn't secure, nttp isn't also... irc is sucky too :)
[01:46] <SeveredCross> I think Grub will automatically pick out the correct place to install, but I feel like it should go on hd(1,0)
[01:46] <DjViper> ok
[01:46] <SeveredCross> Oi.
[01:46] <SeveredCross> He left.
[01:46] <atoponce> rpc: ok. thx
[01:47] <tbuss> atoponce: correct, I want it simple, just a interface to download
[01:47] <rpc> atoponce and just tell me how insecure is it to run vsftpd?
[01:47] <rpc> atoponce what risk is that involving exactly?
[01:47] <atoponce> tbuss: ok. so, if it's anon download, then you're fine. just disable upload
[01:47] <tbuss> atoponce: correct, I want it simple, just a interface to download. I responded to other
[01:47] <rpc> atoponce especially as vsftpd runs in chroot...
[01:48] <rpc> tbuss install vsftpd and have a look at conf.. you can make it really secure in seconds
[01:48] <noelferreira> people anyone can help me with rt61 wireless driver?
[01:48] <shane634> noelferreira, what is the problem?
[01:49] <tbuss> rpc: that is where i run into problems, I tried a how to for proftpd but ran into problem in the config
[01:49] <rpc> tbuss forget about proftpd... use vsftpd
[01:49] <rpc> tbuss it's the most secure ftpd ever created.. even ISPs use it often novadays
[01:50] <nullcode> anyone have beryl problem : GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap .... failed

[01:51] <rpc> tbuss vsftpd is easy as pie
[01:51] <noelferreira> shane634: i have to delete interfaces file and i only can set up my wireless lan with dhclient ra0 command
[01:51] <Pelo> rpc,  have you ever made pie ?  not that easy
[01:51] <tbuss> rpc: I get confused with the anonymous config but also how to secure by requiring password
[01:51] <rpc> Pelo he he
[01:52] <noelferreira> shane634: other messengers ? what you mean?
[01:52] <rpc> tbuss disable anon and change default port first of all
[01:52] <shane634> noelferreira, like msn or yahoo
[01:52] <rpc> tbuss just get rid of anon completely
[01:52] <noelferreira> yes i have
[01:52] <bansh3> tbuss just apt-get install vsftp , them edit vsftpd.conf , put a # in front of anonymous enable line, and remove the # from local enable line
[01:52] <shane634> noelferreira, tell me which

[01:52] <tbuss> rpc: how do I config for user authentication?
[01:53] <shane634> my private here doesn't work for some reason
[01:53] <ikonia> RoundyT1: is it not in the ubuntu repo's ?
[01:53] <tbuss> rpc: will I need to send a passwrd to all family members or set up accounts for each on the server
[01:53] <noelferreira> shane634: noel@oniduo.pt
[01:53] <noelferreira> shane634: msn
[01:53] <RoundyT1> I tried ssh'ing into my server and typing "sudo apt-get install seagull" ....couldn't find
[01:54] <rpc> tbuss you add users on your box but you give them /bin/false instead of /bin/bash in passwd
[01:54] <ikonia> RoundyT1: use apt-cache so search the repo's you may just have the wrong package name
[01:54] <rpc> tbuss that way they will use shell login/pass but that won't work for ssh.. only for ftp
[01:54] <shane634> noelferreira, ok i added ya
[01:54] <ikonia> RoundyT1: if you read the basic dos on ubuntu.com you'll learn how to use the package manager
[01:54] <tbuss> rpc: so users with a windows machine will still be able to connect, no client software needed
[01:55] <rpc> tbuss oh they will need a client, like total commander for instance
[01:55] <RoundyT1> ikonia, thanks will try
[01:55] <geoffrian> Is anyone alive in here?
[01:55] <rpc> tbuss just make very sure that you change the default 21 port to something else
[01:55] <ikonia> geoffrian: clearly
[01:55] <tbuss> rpc: back to anon, how to uninstall
[01:55] <RoundyT1> ikonia, package manager on server side?
[01:55] <tbuss> rpc: will 1980 work for default port
[01:55] <geoffrian> Yeah, you're cool.
[01:55] <rpc> tbuss read the comments in conf.. they are pretty self explanatory
[01:55] <ikonia> RoundyT1: what ?
[01:56] <RoundyT1> ikonia,  The package manager on the server side of things...? it tells how to?
[01:56] <ikonia> RoundyT1: no - it tells you have to use the package manager client - not server

[01:57] <SeveredCross> tjl30: k3b for KDE, gnomebaker for Gnome.

[01:58] <tjl30> gnome, but it really doesn't matter

[03:07] <ikonia> simonsays: its best to use things from the repo
[03:07] <simonsays> thankyou
[03:07] <akbob> gnupg I guess...
[03:07] <Pollywog> akbob: try kgpg
[03:08] <Arrick> hey guys, is there a gui at all if I install the "install a lamp server" on 6.06.1?
[03:08] <chuckf> akbob, what are the errors?
[03:08] <arrenlex> I'm compiling my first kernel right now. :)
[03:08] <arrenlex> I'm so proud.
[03:09] <mateus-br> I'm proud of getting Linsta working here
[03:09] <wafro>  /lib/modules/2.6.20-12-generic/build/include/asm/processor.h:82: error: CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT undeclared here (not in a function)
[03:09] <wafro> anyone know how to fix that?
[03:09] <akbob> no valid data...
[03:09] <chuckf> akbob, what is the encrypted file?
[03:10] <simonsays> out of all the java options in repo should I go with the 5.0 versions or the 1.4, or both
[03:11] <akbob> its the email from launchpad.
[03:11] <lnostdal> simonsays, i'd go with sun-java5-jre
[03:11] <LegionGK> I'm trying to get some sound on my box, and I found a guide and followed it so far. Now it says I have to update the kernel with an .aml file, but the site only gave me .asl ... Any suggestions?
[03:11] <akbob> sent to gmail
[03:11] <chowmeined> I want to use these cool applications but they are for KDE, Isn't there a way to have only gnome but be able to run these programs without installing a whole other set of libraries?
[03:11] <akbob> copied it to plaine text
[03:11] <simonsays> how do i do that? its not listed... or is it?
[03:12] <tts> what di i need to shh into my other pc ?
[03:12] <lnostdal> simonsays, sudo aptitude install sun-java5-jre
[03:12] <arrenlex> chowmeined: You can't run kde applications without kde libraries. There shouldn't be that many. What applications are you looking at?
[03:12] <chowmeined> Scribus
[03:12] <Arrick> hey guys, is there a gui at all if I install the "install a lamp server" on 6.06.1?
[03:12] <chowmeined> and VirtualBox
[03:12] <arrenlex> chowmeined: Scribus is a KDE app?
[03:12] <chowmeined> yes
[03:12] <wafro> arrick no i don't think so
[03:12] <Enphenitie> So, I'm running a feisty install, and the way to install on the beryl wiki says it could screw the gui.  I installed anyways and now when I run it everything turns white.  Is there any way I could .. fix this?
[03:12] <chowmeined> it appears so
[03:12] <simonsays> can you give me anymore information? will that install it for me?
[03:13] <wafro> Enphenitie what kind of video card?
[03:13] <ryanakca> how do I install vmware-console ?
[03:13] <lnostdal> simonsays, yes, that will install the java-runtime .. basically it is what is needed to run java software
[03:13] <simonsays> ok thank you
[03:13] <Pelo> chowmeined,  if you install it from synaptic it should install the appropriate libriaries as well
[03:13] <chuckf> akbob, did you cut the entire message from th first -- to the last --
[03:13] <arrenlex> chowmeined: Oh, it is. Cool, I didn't know. All REAL kde apps start with k. How much space does it want in order to install everything?
[03:13] <Arrick> thanks for the answer wafro
[03:13] <akbob> yes I did... did it twice just to make sure
[03:13] <Pollywog> I am not sure that Scribus is a KDE app, though it uses QT
[03:13] <zsandoz> im having a sound problem
[03:13] <chowmeined> thats what i meant it uses QT
[03:14] <zsandoz> does anyone have a laptop with an intel onboard sound?
[03:14] <chowmeined> Pelo: I understand that synaptic will take care if it for me, but if I am using two different gui toolkits it uses a lot more ram
[03:14] <Pollywog> chowmeined: you have limited hd capacity?
[03:14] <arrenlex> Pollywog: kde app == uses qt
[03:14] <chowmeined> no hard drive space is fine
[03:14] <Pollywog> yes but that does not make it a KDE app
[03:14] <chowmeined> but it defeats the purpose of shared libraries
[03:15] <arrenlex> Pollywog: What makes a kde app in your opinion?
[03:15] <chuckf> akbob, it should work as I just did it on mine. Pop over to #gnupg and we'll talk more
[03:15] <Sargonas> anyone familiar with why my laptop with an ati mbility would have awesome video playback, but blocky low res jumpyness when in fullscreen?
[03:15] <Pollywog> chowmeined: they go for it, install the QT libs
[03:15] <Pollywog> chowmeined: then go for it, install the QT libs
[03:15] <crdlb> arrenlex, using kdelibs
[03:15] <Pelo> chowmeined,  I just checked and it only has 4 dependencies, shoudlnT' be that bad
[03:15] <chowmeined> I have limited ram though
[03:15] <arrenlex> Oh. Fair enough.
[03:15] <akbob> ok chuck
[03:15] <ryanakca> how do I install vmware-console ?
[03:15] <Sonderblade> wow, ubuntu managed to automatically adjust for DST, im inpressed!
[03:15] <zsandoz> my linux sees the card i just have no sound
[03:16] <chowmeined> Ok, Well I will test it out, sometimes I think it would be nice if there was one standard gui toolkit though
[03:16] <arrenlex> chowmeined: Sure, as long as it's qt. =)
[03:16] <Pelo> chowmeined,  have you considered passepartout ?  XML-based Desktop Publishing Application
[03:16] <tts> do i need to install some thing special on the machine im trying to shh into ?
[03:16] <tts> ssh*
[03:16] <ikonia> tts ssh server
[03:17] <Pollywog> tts just the ssh server
[03:17] <ikonia> thats a good start
[03:17] <jmg> !easysource
[03:17] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[03:17] <corevette> how do you use avahi
[03:17] <arrenlex> tts: openssh-server
[03:17] <jmg> thanks ubotu
[03:17] <chowmeined> qt isnt gpl, I am not a fan of it
[03:17] <houn> Anyone good with configuring Samba?
[03:17] <arrenlex> chowmeined: wtf?! qt is gpl!
[03:17] <arrenlex> chowmeined: gtk isn't gpl.
[03:17] <chowmeined> but it has the other thing
[03:17] <houn> I thought I hit all the essentials, but I can't connect.
[03:17] <ikonia> arrenlex: don't use the language
[03:17] <ikonia> its just uncalled for
[03:17] <bruenig> those three consonants are pretty offensive
[03:17] <arrenlex> ikonia: What language?
[03:18] <Pollywog> gtk is not gpl'd?
[03:18] <ikonia> arrenlex: WT
[03:18] <arrenlex> Pollywog: lgpl.
[03:18] <chowmeined> so lgpl?
[03:18] <Caplain> how do i broadcast on a shoutcast server?
[03:18] <Pollywog> oh
[03:18] <lix_> Hi. Just read the post of Mark about beryl in feisty. http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/102 apt-get instll beryl doesn't work for me. /etc/apt/sources.list is correct (fesity & universe). I have the following error: "beryl: Depends: beryl-plugins but it is not installable. Depends: beryl-settings but it is not going to be installed". Any suggestions?
[03:18] <ikonia> arrenlex: everyone knows what wtf means
[03:18] <Mirth> Any good Video Editing software on Linux; something like Sony Vegas or Final Cut Pro?
[03:18] <ikonia> arrenlex: its uncalled for
[03:18] <kikkymonk> when linux freezes how do you recover from it?
[03:18] <arrenlex> ikonia: What? ... I just use them as an exclamation like "pff".
[03:18] <ikonia> kikkymonk: reboot
[03:18] <bruenig> lix, #ubuntu+1
[03:18] <ikonia> arrenlex: and I'm asking you not to please
[03:18] <Pollywog> ikonia: how about rms?
[03:18] <lix_> bruenig: tnx
[03:18] <Pollywog> and I do not mean root mean square
[03:18] <arrenlex> ikonia: Okay, if it offends you.
[03:18] <mateus-br> Mirth: try run under CrossOffice
[03:19] <wafro> hmm whats the best processor to compile a kernel for on a core duo?
[03:19] <ikonia> arrenlex: everyone knows what it means, its just uncalled for
[03:19] <kikkymonk> i thought one of the 'features' of linux is you hardly ever have to reboot
[03:19] <chowmeined> oh well
[03:19] <tts> sudo apt-get install ssh-server ?
[03:19] <bruenig> Mirth, cinelerra or something like that
[03:19] <rotylee> its 1984 when symantics nazis control the language
[03:19] <simonsays> hello, ive just installed the sun-java5-jre but its come up with a graphic display that i need to push ok on, how do i do this?
[03:19] <ikonia> wafro: a core duo is the best processor to compile for a core duo
[03:19] <arrenlex> wafro: Core duo itself is in the lists.
[03:19] <tritium> arrenlex: it's against the Code of Conduct.  That's the bottom line.
[03:19] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | rotylee
[03:19] <ubotu> rotylee: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:19] <bruenig> simonsays, tab
[03:19] <Mirth> OKay, will try that
[03:19] <chowmeined> It would be nice then to have some librarie that you could develop with that would let you compile it for QT or GTK depending on what you wanted
[03:19] <Pollywog> sematics
[03:19] <Pollywog> semantics
[03:19] <wafro> tts: i think its openssh-server
[03:19] <ikonia> rotylee: no - its just a request not implying the "F" word
[03:20] <tritium> rotylee: that was completely inappropriate
[03:20] <wafro> i see "core 2/newer xeon"
[03:20] <Toma-> nazi is a swear word?
[03:20] <Pho3niX^ReBorN> hehe
[03:20] <Hirvinen> kikkymonk: Well, freezing is already outside normal operation.
[03:20] <bruenig> yeah I was wondering when symantic was supporting nazis, I mean I know ibm, but symatec too?
[03:20] <tonyyarusso> Toma-: No, but it is offensive.
[03:20] <chowmeined> no rebooting
[03:20] <tritium> Toma-: no, but calling people Nazis is completely inappropriate
[03:20] <Adam_G> Bah, wt* means worse than *ailure now. Everyone knows that.
[03:20] <bruenig> symantec*
[03:20] <Toma-> *nod*
[03:20] <chowmeined> I was offended when Ubuntu asked me to reboot after doing updates
[03:21] <Pollywog> unless you mean the guy who sells soup
[03:21] <bruenig> chowmeined, how else do you want to boot into your new kernel
[03:21] <Toma-> chowmeined: it says a reboot is needed to load the upgraded kernel
[03:21] <Toma-> you can easily continue without a reboot
[03:21] <Broady> pfft kernel, who needs kernel anyway? right?
[03:21] <chowmeined> I didn't see a new kernel
[03:21] <bruenig> chowmeined, yeah well it was there. That is the only time it asks for restart
[03:22] <ikonia> bruenig: I thought a few gnome updates requested an update
[03:22] <Arrick> this is awesome
[03:22] <ikonia> if its security related
[03:22] <chowmeined> but when I logged out and logged in again, Gnome quit working and would just halt at a blank screen
[03:22] <bruenig> that would make sense, I don't use gnome though
[03:22] <Arrick> the 6.06.1 ISO is corrupt
[03:22] <Arrick> downloaded 3 of them from different mirrors
[03:22] <ikonia> Arrick: no - your download is corrupt
[03:22] <kikkymonk> beryl is freezing when i try to run it. is there a way to recover from that? (like ending a task in windows XP)
[03:22] <Arrick> they all throw Grub Loading Error 15
[03:22] <ikonia> Arrick: or your burn is corupt
[03:22] <Toma-> Arrick: you can easily get a flawless download when you use bittorrent as it usually has MD5 checking
[03:22] <bruenig> Arrick, your burn is corrupt
[03:23] <chowmeined> kikkymonk: ctrl-alt-backspace?
[03:23] <Arrick> Toma- I did
[03:23] <Alysum> hi I cannot ping 127.0.0.1, what is missing ?
[03:23] <Toma-> sounds like a bad burn :< ?
[03:23] <ikonia> Alysum: network suport
[03:23] <ikonia> support
[03:23] <Alysum> more details pls ?
[03:23] <Xenguy> Alysum: does 'ifconfig' show 'lo' ?
[03:23] <simonsays> ok, just installed flash from repo, and java5 jre thing that was suggested, but still things like youtube are not loading, any suggestions? do i click to download the flash browser link from youtube or is there a better way
[03:23] <ikonia> Alysum: you don't have any network support
[03:24] <Alysum> no it has eth0 and eth1
[03:24] <Mugwump09> my ubuntu installation thing doesn't start up completely, I boot from the disc and it loads the kernel, goes to that tan screen, plays a little song or something, then does nothing
[03:24] <chowmeined> where is the file where I can save my iptables config so it will be reloaded upon boot?
[03:24] <ikonia> Alysum: check /etc/hosts
[03:24] <Xenguy> Alysum: that is fscked
[03:24] <bruenig> simonsays, go to about:plugins in firefox and see what it tells you about flash
[03:24] <ikonia> chowmeined: you have to write your own script
[03:24] <Pollywog> anyone try hamachi and is there some other vpn that is as easy to set up ?
[03:24] <tritium> simonsays: flashplugin-nonfree is all you need for that
[03:24] <arrenlex> Xenguy: oooooh, you're going to get chewed out now too! :)
[03:24] <bruenig> ikonia, no you don't
[03:24] <ikonia> bruenig: for iptables ?
[03:25] <LegionGK> Can anybody here help me with some DSDT problems?
[03:25] <bruenig> ikonia, for them to be reloaded at boot, no
[03:25] <Mugwump09> hep me!
[03:25] <ikonia> bruenig: there is no init scrpit in 6.06
[03:25] <Xenguy> arrenlex: I've got 'die' up my sleeve still; you know, singular of 'dice' ?  :-)
[03:25] <dauoalagio2> i am having trouble starting httpd after installing apache2, any ideas?
[03:25] <ikonia> dauoalagio2: have you configured it ?
[03:25] <chowmeined> bruenig: where is the file?
[03:25] <simonsays> i dont have anything there for flash on that link... how do i get the flashplugin-non free?
[03:25] <Mugwump09> I was installing 6.10 and the installation screen wouldn't load completely
[03:26] <dauoalagio2> ikonia, nah...not sure what to configure
[03:26] <bruenig> hmmmm, I could have sworn, maybe there dapper is throwing me
[03:26] <kmi> hi... does anyone know if there is a way to install lilo in ubuntu? liloconfig does not work on edgy...
[03:26] <bruenig> s/there//
[03:26] <ikonia> dauoalagio2: the apache config
[03:26] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: try /etc/init.d/httpd (or apache) start
[03:26] <Pollywog> Mugwump09: try the alternative install iso
[03:26] <Arrick> the funny thing Toma- and bruenig and ikonia is when it boots, I can run "check the CD for errors" and it checks fine
[03:26] <ikonia> bruenig: I am %99.9 certain
[03:26] <dauoalagio2> ikonia, what now?
[03:26] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, that produces an error
[03:26] <bruenig> Arrick, that has always confused me, if it is erred how can it check itself
[03:26] <Toma-> Arrick: and youre 100% certain the CD is corrupt?
[03:26] <ikonia> dauoalagio2: configure apache before starting
[03:26] <noelferreira> anyone here have expirience with rt61 wireless driver?
[03:26] <jmg> does anyone know the other program like freevo
[03:26] <Alysum> I had to comment out everything in /etc/network/interface so that the gnome network manager could work with that wpa supplicant thats probably why 127.0.0.1 not working
[03:27] <dauoalagio2> ikonia, i guessed that but what's the command to configure it
[03:27] <chowmeined> ikonia: I have 6.10 though
[03:27] <ikonia> dauoalagio2: vi
[03:27] <Pollywog> I have used the rt2500 which is similar
[03:27] <dauoalagio2> ikonia, or the config file
[03:27] <Pollywog> ralink
[03:27] <ikonia> chowmeined: I think its the same
[03:27] <Xenguy> Alysum: that's right, you screwed things up ;-)
[03:27] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: whats the error?
[03:27] <chowmeined> ikonia: ok thank you
[03:27] <ikonia> dauoalagio2: httpd.conf - search for it or read hte wiki
[03:27] <matthew1429> whats teh shell command to see if linux is "seeing" my newly installed dvdr?
[03:27] <Arrick> bruenig thats a good question
[03:27] <Alysum> damn :(
[03:28] <Toma-> matthew1429: dmesg
[03:28] <linxeh> is there a way to bind the useless windows key on my keyboard to display the programs menu or something ?
[03:28] <Pollywog> matthew1429: you might also try lspci
[03:28] <Xenguy> Alysum: can you just uncomment the loopback device/line ?
[03:28] <Toma-> matthew1429: dmesg | grep DVD (might work better)
[03:28] <Arrick> if only there was a way to install server from the desktop CD like there was in the breezy edition bruenig
[03:28] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, it says it;s running but i cannt connecto local host
[03:28] <bruenig> linxeh, there is, i forget what it is actually called but I believe it is in the keyboard shortcuts menu of system>preferences
[03:28] <linxeh> bruenig: ok cool thanks :)
[03:28] <Mirth> How do I check how much space I have left on this harddrive?
[03:28] <arrenlex> Mirth: df -H
[03:28] <bruenig> Mirth, df
[03:28] <Alysum> just uncomment this ?
[03:28] <Alysum> auto lo
[03:28] <Alysum> iface lo inet loopback
[03:28] <ikonia> dauoalagio2: ps -ef  | grep httpd see if its running
[03:29] <Pollywog> Mirth dh -h
[03:29] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: have you got a loopback interface loaded? (should be 'lo' in ifconfig)
[03:29] <Xenguy> Mirth: df -h /
[03:29] <ikonia> or apachectl2 status
[03:29] <Pollywog> df -h
[03:29] <bruenig> no need for /
[03:29] <kingcobra> is there a way to have a lsit of users on bootup screen insted of having to type username every time
[03:29] <matthew1429> [17179578.168000]  hdc: M] UUOn DVD/R_m8\t\163d, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

[03:29] <Xenguy> bruenig: yep
[03:29] <Mirth> thx Guys
[03:29] <matthew1429> does that mean both are trying to mount to hdc?
[03:29] <dk1447> Hello, can someone help a total newbie with adding a new harddrive to my box?
[03:29] <Toma-> 87x ?!
[03:29] <bruenig> dk1447, you mean how to mount it, or how to put it inside the box
[03:29] <dauoalagio2> ikonia, i got output yes
[03:29] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, one second
[03:30] <dk1447> bruenig: mount it and format ect
[03:30] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, no
[03:30] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: right. thats weird.
[03:30] <dauoalagio2> yeah
[03:30] <ikonia> dauoalagio2: telnet 127.0.0.1 80
[03:30] <bruenig> dk1447, ok well do "sudo fdisk -l" and see if it is in the output and what it is called and whatnot
[03:30] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, just eth0 and wlan0
[03:30] <matthew1429> did anyone see my last post?  it looked like the system was trying to mount both to hdc didnt it?
[03:30] <warder> can someone help a ubuntu noob?
[03:30] <bruenig> !someone | warder
[03:30] <dauoalagio2> ikonia, it's trying...
[03:30] <ubotu> warder: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:31] <warder> I tried to see how it would run on my system using the CD way
[03:31] <warder> [18:23]  <warder> I booted it and at the menu screen where it says run or install I pressed enter
[03:31] <warder> [18:24]  <warder> the ubuntu symbol came up and it acted like it was loading
[03:31] <warder> [18:24]  <warder> then it became a solid organge line and started to increase(more loading
[03:31] <warder> [18:26]  <warder> it gets to about 3 and a half bars and then the resolution changes and I have the little underscore thing up at the top left corner
[03:31] <warder> [18:26]  <warder> I can type in it but nothing else happens
[03:31] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: what do you get if you run 'sudo ifup lo' ?
[03:31] <warder> oops
[03:31] <posingaspopular> !enter
[03:31] <bruenig> !paste | warder
[03:31] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:31] <ikonia> enough for tonight
[03:31] <ubotu> warder: 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)
[03:31] <LegionGK> !dsdt
[03:31] <dauoalagio2> Toma-,
[03:31] <dauoalagio2> /etc/network/interfaces:20: duplicate interface
[03:31] <dauoalagio2> ifup: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces"
[03:31] <RagePrblm> if I hit the X on xchat, will it minimize to the tray or close completely?
[03:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dsdt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:31] <warder> soory
[03:31] <bruenig> RagePrblm, try
[03:32] <RagePrblm> I guess I could do that
[03:32] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: hehhe ouch. did you do something weird to get your other network cards to work?
[03:32] <dk1447> bruenig: I sent you a pm
[03:32] <matthew1429> does ubuntu not automatically update the mounting?
[03:32] <bruenig> dk1447, yeah didn't get it, but in any sense, we can do this in here
[03:32] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, i don't know just ndiswrapper
[03:32] <dk1447> bruenig: alright. its called : /dev/sdb
[03:32] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, this must be the problem, no/
[03:33] <dk1447> bruenig:  fdisk says : /dev/sdb doesnt contain a valid partition table
[03:33] <dauoalagio2> no?*
[03:33] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: you do need a loopback to run most things
[03:33] <bruenig> dk1447, ok, do you have gparted?
[03:33] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, most things?
[03:33] <durkaji> will ubuntu support sound and my nvidia card right off the bat?
[03:33] <dk1447> bruenig: its a clean install so I guess not, should I grab it ?
[03:33] <dauoalagio2> durkaji: try a livecd
[03:33] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: run 'cat /etc/network/interfaces' and you *should* have some stuff in there. dont paste it in here
[03:33] <bruenig> dk1447, yeah sudo apt-get install gparted (after the install it will be listed as gnome partition editor)
[03:33] <kingcobra>  is there a way to have a lsit of users on bootup screen insted of having to type username every time
[03:34] <warder> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11927/plain/
[03:34] <posingaspopular> durkaji, your video card yes, your sound im not sure off, depends on the card
[03:34] <Pollywog> kingcobra: yes
[03:34] <gordonjcp> durkaji: for nvidia you need to install a specific package to get opengl support
[03:34] <kingcobra> Pollywog, how
[03:34] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, can we private and yes i got stuff
[03:34] <durkaji> i have an nforce onboard sound
[03:34] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: pastebin it
[03:34] <Pollywog> kingcobra: are you using KDE or Gnome?
[03:34] <axisys> how do I make sure beagle never starts in my fiesty?
[03:34] <kingcobra> gnome
[03:34] <Toma-> !pastebin > dauoalagio2
[03:34] <durkaji> but basically, im on gentoo right now and so much stuff is horribly screwed up so i think im going to switch to ubuntu
[03:34] <Mirth> Is there a Non-source code version of Cinelerra?
[03:34] <warder> my problem is linked above
[03:34] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, okay
[03:34] <matthew1429> im a bit befuddled, I just added my dvd/r and linux doesn't see it... I did a dmesg and came up with 2 devices under hdc...
[03:35] <Pollywog> I have not done it in Gnome in a while but it is configurable
[03:35] <matthew1429> any clues anyone?
[03:35] <dk1447> bruenig: ok install and started
[03:35] <kingcobra> Pollywog, ok what shud i search for
[03:35] <matthew1429> I typed mount and see nothing indicating hdc
[03:35] <bruenig> dk1447, ok make sure sdb is selected at the top right and then right click and create to format, what did you want to format it as, ext3 or fat32 or what
[03:35] <Pollywog> kingcobra: gdm userlist

[03:36] <bruenig> Mirth, come on now you can't think that will get you anything
[03:36] <Toma-> right.
[03:36] <Pollywog> If I am not mistaken gdm has an option for it when gdm comes up at boot
[03:36] <Pollywog> that is how it worked in the past
[03:36] <Mirth> Had to give it a try bruenig! :D
[03:36] <Pollywog> you need to login as root to change it
[03:36] <dk1447> bruenig: ok selected. just as some linux filesys.. I guess ext3. Its going to be used as a large file storage

[03:37] <tonyyarusso> lasking: #ubuntu+1
[03:37] <dk1447> bruenig: ok one thing. asks me for disk label? just select msdos? or advanced?
[03:37] <rotylee> now that was vulgar
[03:37] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: youll need to remove that 2nd last group (iface wlan0 inet dhcp \ wireless-essid computer)
[03:37] <soxneon> can I ask a question? anyone how sees can respond...
[03:37] <wafro> hmm can i use -j2 on make-kpkg?
[03:37] <posingaspopular> !ask
[03:37] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:37] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, why is this?
[03:37] <lasking> #buntu+1
[03:37] <soxneon> how easy will it be to update the 6.10 installation
[03:37] <lasking> what mean?
[03:38] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, i see the duplicate
[03:38] <lasking> #ubuntu+1
[03:38] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: you have it in there twice and youre network cant configure itself with a duplicate
[03:38] <lasking> what mean?
[03:38] <posingaspopular> soxneon, it should be really really easy
[03:38] <kingcobra> Pollywog, do i hav to install a new theme to get it
[03:38] <warder> anyone?
[03:38] <chuckf> soxneon, depends on what the final looks like, but should be easy
[03:38] <bruenig> dk1447, hmmm, not sure, I am thinking advanced but someone else might know better
[03:38] <soxneon> as easy as a regular update, let's say?
[03:38] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, is a restart in order?
[03:38] <Hobbsee> Pyromancer: hello
[03:38] <Toma-> little late Hobbsee :D
[03:38] <bruenig> dk1447, I am sure it doesn't matter, both will probably work, I don't know the difference though
[03:38] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: heck no.
[03:39] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, sudo ifup lo works
[03:39] <chuckf> soxneon, that is what it should be
[03:39] <Hobbsee> Toma-: i realise that.  i just noticed 3 people coming in very close together, and thought they might spam
[03:39] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: clean up that file then run 'sudo ifup lo'
[03:39] <soxneon> excellent
[03:39] <Mirth> Anyone know of a guide I can read on how to compile a source code to make the program install?
[03:39] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, and now apache works...thanks you're a beast
[03:39] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: super. now try starting httpd again from /etc/init.d/httpd
[03:39] <soxneon> i'd rather not deal with partitioning and all that again

[03:39] <soxneon> i'm tri-booting
[03:39] <Arrick> ok, someone point me to the wiki for installing a Lamp server on Ubuntu 5.10 please?
[03:39] <bruenig> i'm quintuple booting
[03:39] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, haha
[03:39] <posingaspopular> !source | Mirth
[03:39] <Toma-> nice 1 Hobbs :D
[03:39] <ubotu> Mirth: You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[03:40] <tonyyarusso> !lamp | Arrick
[03:40] <ubotu> Arrick: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[03:40] <dk1447> bruenig: I chose msdos. other selections made no sence. Should I create as a primary partition or extended?
[03:40] <soxneon> what are you booting, brue?
[03:40] <bruenig> dk1447, primary
[03:40] <ceeg> is there a way to upgrade to apache2.2 with apt-get?
[03:40] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, truth be told i have absolutely no reason for apache to work...

[03:40] <bruenig> not really
[03:41] <dk1447> bruenig: ok done. should I format it now then?
[03:41] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: :o well with lo working, login should be quicker and things might run a little quicker
[03:41] <cannap> oha over 1000 peapols using ubuntu :)

[03:41] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, why?
[03:41] <soxneon> Ubuntu 6.10 AMD64 that is
[03:41] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: login and other verification things need a loopback
[03:41] <Supercross> when I run memtest86 it says my CAS latency is 2.5-4-4-8 but on the stick of ram itself it says 2.5-6-3-3....no overclocking settings, memtest always freezes on test 7...ubuntu randomly freezes....what gives?
[03:41] <Arrick> !llamp
[03:41] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, weird why my stuff was entered twice...dang ndiswrapper
[03:42] <kingcobra> soxneon, is there any advantage of amd64 over i386
[03:42] <matthew1429> can someone interpret this for me?  I am trying to mount my dvdrom that I just installed... through typing this sudo mount /media/cdrom0/ -o unhide & the output is this ----> mount: special device /dev/hdd does not exist.......why is it looking for hdd?

[03:42] <kingcobra> Pollywog, do i hav to install a new theme to get it
[03:42] <soxneon> king, not currently
[03:42] <lufis> Installing software is so slow! It basically makes my computer unusable for 10 minutes. I click "Apply" in Synaptic and go do something else
[03:42] <dk1447> bruenig: ok its now formatting, its a pretty large drive so this may take some time. May I contact you for further instructions when its done?
[03:42] <freakcode> matthew1429: if its a dvdrom, you should not mount manually.
[03:42] <bruenig> matthew1429, why are you mounting a mount point
[03:42] <linxeh> matthew1429: presumably when you installed it saw hdd as the CDROM drive for some reason. you should change the mount point in /etc/fstab probably
[03:42] <bruenig> dk1447, yeah I will be here
[03:42] <LegionGK> is there an easy way to convert an .asl file to an .aml file?
[03:42] <warder> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11929/plain/

[03:43] <nickk> hey, can someone help me with a GRUB/VMware issue?
[03:44] <posingaspopular> !someone | nickk
[03:44] <ubotu> nickk: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:44] <linxeh> matthew1429: whatever your dvdrom drive device is
[03:44] <dauoalagio2> Toma-, well it works and everything...but it's half as loud as could be...say on winblows.  but even with alsamixer and gnome-volume-control all the way turned up it's so soft...
[03:44] <Mirth> Does Feisty have a release date?
[03:44] <kikkymonk> when i tried to 'make' my printer driver i got a ton of errors... they are all similar to foo2zjs.c:60:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
[03:44] <soxneon> mirth, april something
[03:44] <warder> I am having a boot problem
[03:44] <Mirth> Ah.
[03:44] <webmaster5> the 19th of april feisty is released
[03:44] <dauoalagio2> Toma-: want the specs?
[03:44] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: any obscure options in alsamixer like PCM gain or something?
[03:45] <matthew1429> whats the UUID in fstab?
[03:45] <Toma-> dauoalagio2: yeh might help :)
[03:45] <soxneon> version numbers are the release dates, no?
[03:45] <linxeh> matthew1429: UUID is a unique id for each device on the system
[03:45] <webmaster5> soxneon: yes they are
[03:45] <dauoalagio2> Toma-: after running alsamixer i see two bars, one for master and one for pcm.  it's a conexant HD audio and it's part of a laptop.
[03:45] <Toma-> i see
[03:45] <matthew1429> linxeh:  so leave that alone and just add/delete the intelligible entries right?
[03:45] <kingcobra> anybody know how to get a userlist with gnome on bootup
[03:46] <dk1447> bruenig: its now formatted. but somehow almost 8gb is used on the drive after format. how is that possible?
[03:46] <dauoalagio2> Toma-: the card it tells me is "HDA Intel"
[03:46] <nickk> hey everyone. i have 2 disks (one with windows and the other with edgy).. and i installed VMWare on my ubuntu to load my windows disk for design applications... but GRUB keeps giving me error 21 within VMWare... can anyone walk me through this?
[03:46] <linxeh> matthew1429: one of the entries is for /media/cdrom0 I guess - you should change that one (it should start with /dev/hdd?)
[03:46] <raicely> como instalo pando en ubuntu?
[03:46] <buckweat420> Hey I dont have a Icon for KVIRC in my Desktop or in any of the menus how do i get the icon? I even reinstalled and it did not add a icon anywhere?!

[03:47] <Pollywog> raicely: #ubuntu-es
[03:47] <kikkymonk> why do i get compile errors when i try and make my printer drivers? like this : foo2zjs.c:60:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
[03:47] <dauoalagio2> Toma-: the weird thing is that after installing a driver from www.linuxant.com (conexant linux thing) i got working.  but i had to reformat and i can't get to install properly i guess.
[03:47] <jmg> apt-get install build-essential
[03:47] <jmg> kikkymonk: ^
[03:47] <linxeh> matthew1429: there is probably an automated way of doing this though :)
[03:47] <matthew1429> hehe
[03:47] <bruenig> dk1447, but anyways, I am assuming you want this to mount at boot?

[03:55] <dk1447> bruenig: the only user will be me on local. Should I type the "defaults" just after a tab right after ext3?
[03:55] <corevette> For the remote desktop, do you have to be in the same LAN as the computer you want to control/view?
[03:55] <kingcobra> toma why not
[03:55] <Toma-> kingcobra: the default theme has no userlist. you need a theme with a userlist enabled
[03:55] <bruenig> dk1447, yeah make sure there is whitespace in between each of those things
[03:55] <dk1447> bruenig: alright done.
[03:56] <matthew1429> what would my dvd/r be called under /dev?
[03:56] <bruenig> dk1447, yeah so should mount at boot, do "sudo mount -a" to mount it now
[03:56] <kingcobra> can you not change the default and add in a userlist toma
[03:56] <warder> I tried to see how it would run on my system using the CD way.
[03:56] <warder> I booted it and at the menu screen where it says run or install I pressed enter.
[03:56] <warder> the Ubuntu symbol came up and it acted like it was loading.
[03:56] <warder> then it became a solid orange line and started to increase(more loading.
[03:56] <warder> it gets to about 3 and a half bars and then the resolution changes and I have the little underscore thing up at the top left corner.
[03:56] <warder> I can type in it but nothing else happens.
[03:56] <Pollywog> kingcobra, take a look at gdm.conf
[03:56] <dk1447> bruenig: done. seems like its mounted :D
[03:56] <Toma-> kingcobra: you probably can, but youll need the source code to the theme, some programming experience and some nice paint tools
[03:56] <Mirth> How come when I move Icons on the top panel, the icon changes to a little Yield Sign with a Question Mark in it?
[03:56] <Pollywog> in /etc/gdm/
[03:57] <greig__> hi folks, how do i set a application as a default app, for example, how to i set amarok to run as default when i double click a audio file? thanks in advance
[03:57] <dk1447> bruenig: anything else I need to know?
[03:57] <Pollywog> it has some option to activate the face browser and such
[03:57] <kingcobra> major job then, ok thanx toma
[03:57] <bruenig> dk1447, no
[03:57] <lufis> greig__: Right-click file, select "open with" tab
[03:57] <lufis> greig__: in the properties, i mean
[03:57] <dk1447> bruenig: alright Thanks alot for your help.
[03:57] <matthew1429> sorry if I'm spamming, but it looks like I'm getting hidden :)  how do I find out the "name" of my dvd rom in /dev so I can type it in through the mount command and update /etc/fstab?
[03:57] <bruenig> dk1447, might have to chmod it to your specifications at some point is all, if you get permission denied or something
[03:58] <greig__> lufis : thank you i'll try it now:)
[03:58] <lufis> :)
[03:58] <kingcobra> Pollywog, where is that
[03:58] <Pollywog>  it is in /etc/gdm/
[03:58] <drew> anyone know how to contact freenode staff
[03:58] <Toma-> matthew1429: its in dmesg
[03:58] <matthew1429> okay
[03:58] <Toma-> drew: #freenode
[03:58] <matthew1429> ty
[03:58] <dk1447> bruenig: chmod the whole drive or you mean the folders I create inside?
[03:59] <drew> Toma- well it forwarded me to #freenode-social and I'm not voice so can't speak in there =\
[03:59] <kikkymonk> Can i play my .mp3s from my windows partition in ubuntu?
[03:59] <lufis> kikkymonk: yes
[03:59] <Toma-> drew: just wait. youll get a voice
[03:59] <bruenig> dk1447, the folders you create inside, or you might need to chmod the mount point
[03:59] <drew> kikkymonk: with right codecs, yes
[03:59] <drew> Toma-, k tx
[04:00] <greig__> lufis : thanks it worked. on a side note, is there any way i can get the volume and pause play etc functions on my keyboard to control ubuntus volume etc?
[04:00] <kingcobra> Pollywog, cant see easy way of changin gdm.conf
[04:00] <kikkymonk> .mp3s are not supported out of the box?
[04:00] <cX-kads> hi there
[04:00] <bruenig> dk1447, if you had some certain permission setup you wanted throughout the drive, that can be setup in the fstab. But if you have different permissions you want on different files, then you would have to set those up as you go
[04:00] <lufis> kikkymonk: not right out of the box, no
[04:00] <matthew1429> does anyone see anything wrong with mounting a dvd/r under /media/cdrom0?
[04:00] <cX-kads> I keep having problems with xchat and ssl
[04:00] <lufis> kikkymonk: but it isn't hard to enable mp3 playbac
[04:00] <drew> kikkymonk: its like a 10 second fix though :)
[04:00] <Pollywog> kingcobra: there is a gdm configurator
[04:00] <kikkymonk> hit me with it : P
[04:00] <matthew1429> mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0?
[04:00] <Pollywog> kingcobra: there is a gdm configurator

[04:00] <lufis> greig__: like multimedia keys?
[04:00] <Mirth> How come when I move Icons on the top panel, the icon changes to a little Yield Sign with a Question Mark in it?
[04:00] <drew> kikkymonk: its even quicker in the new beta.
[04:00] <cX-kads> I keep having problems with xchat and ssl
[04:01] <Pollywog> I think the command is gdmsetup
[04:01] <aoirthoir> is there any way I can prevent x and gnome from blanking my screen...I have all the gnome settings set as far as I know
[04:01] <kingcobra> Pollywog, where
[04:01] <Pollywog> you need to use gksu with it I believe
[04:01] <greig__> lufis : yes exactly!
[04:01] <Pollywog> as in gksu gdmsetup
[04:01] <crdlb> aoirthoir, is DPMS disabled?
[04:01] <warder> come on no one can help me?
[04:01] <lufis> greig__: I think amarok supports them... i'm not sure though. just a sec
[04:01] <webmaster5> does anyone know how i can make kdm start instead of gdm when ubuntu boots up?
[04:01] <DsB> hi
[04:01] <aoirthoir> crdlb: dont know what that is or how to do it or check it crdlb ..maybe?
[04:01] <DsB> can any one tel me what this means
[04:02] <greig__> lufis : thanks u are a star
[04:02] <DsB> no volume groups found
[04:02] <crdlb> aoirthoir, in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:02] <Pollywog> webmaster5, use dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[04:02] <crdlb> monitor section
[04:02] <Adamantinus> Hey guys.
[04:02] <aoirthoir> ok going to check...
[04:02] <lufis> greig__: oh stop ;)
[04:02] <Pollywog> sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[04:02] <DsB> what means no volume groups found
[04:02] <cX-kads> I keep having problems with xchat and ssl
[04:02] <jeffsters> how do I upgrade Firefox 1.5 to 2.0.3?  I downloaded the newest firefox and extracted it to a folder on my desktop... now what?
[04:02] <dk1447> bruenig: alright. I will return here if I run into problems with it. Whats the package called for telnet server and is there some way to remote desktop the machine from a winxp machine?
[04:02] <nootrope> warder sounds like your graphics crd isn't supported without tweaking

[04:03] <pintu> hi all humans

[04:03] <bruenig> dk1447, not sure about the second one, I am sure there is a way, someone else here probably knows
[04:03] <webmaster5> pollywog: thanks
[04:03] <lufis> greig__: i am not sure. try asking in #amarok
[04:04] <nootrope> who you calling human, pintu
[04:04] <Davren> Hi pintu
[04:04] <kingcobra> Pollywog, ok thanx

[04:05] <DsB> drew:how can i resolve the issue
[04:05] <greig__> lufis : do u know if there is a way of the volume bottons on my keyboard controlling the desktop volume? i havent installed any audio drivers, im not sure if i have to
[04:05] <crdlb> aoirthoir, try option "DPMS" "off"
[04:05] <harlinw> does anyone know if gparted or fdisk are only supported for certain drives ? i had a partition resize fail when using the install icon on the 6.10 desktop and i'm booting off a live cd ?
[04:05] <Robbie> Anyone in here good with diagnosing and correcting audio problems? I'm having hell with my audigy ls card.
[04:05] <linxeh> hmmm battery life is really sucky compared to windows isnt it :o
[04:05] <aoirthoir> crdlb: that means I need to restart X right?
[04:05] <drew> DsB try fdisk -l see what it says
[04:05] <nootrope> warder, you booting Live CD?
[04:05] <warder> this is I tried to see how it would run on my system using the CD way.
[04:05] <warder> I booted it and at the menu screen where it says run or install I pressed enter.
[04:05] <warder> the Ubuntu symbol came up and it acted like it was loading.
[04:05] <warder> then it became a solid orange line and started to increase(more loading.
[04:05] <warder> it gets to about 3 and a half bars and then the resolution changes and I have the little underscore thing up at the top left corner.
[04:05] <warder> I can type in it but nothing else happens.
[04:05] <vox754> DsB, perhaps giving details of what were you doing when the error occurred
[04:05] <lufis> greig__: if your sound card is working, you don't have to install a driver
[04:05] <aoirthoir> crdlb: will change it and try now.
[04:05] <warder> this is I tried to see how it would run on my system using the CD way.
[04:05] <warder> I booted it and at the menu screen where it says run or install I pressed enter.

[04:06] <Toma-> yeh that was a bit dumb
[04:06] <greig__> lufis : ok, im just askin as when i press the volume up-down the bar on screen goes up-down but with no volume changes
[04:06] <lufis> greig__: hm.try asking in amarok
[04:06] <bruenig> dk1447, yeah it is in the universe repository though so make sure you have that enabled. you can enable that by doing "sudo sed -i 's/# deb/deb/g' /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update"
[04:06] <Decepticon> why would i want ubuntu over any other distro of linux? how is it diff from debian?
[04:06] <lufis> Robbie: what's the issue?
[04:06] <greig__> lufis : ty m8:)
[04:06] <Adamantinus> Listen, I've got a question regarding fonts in ubuntu. I've added all my old fonts from Windows into /usr/share/fonts and run fc-cache, and they all come up in the font viewer as squares and in nautilus they have X's and won't open. Does anyone know why this is?
[04:06] <lufis> Decepticon: 6 month regular release cycle :)
[04:07] <Robbie> Well, I have sound, but I am unable to control the volume any other way than to turn the knob on the speakers.
[04:07] <Decepticon> lufis what does that mean for me as a consumer
[04:07] <drew> DsB which version of ubuntu did you install, and how did you partition during install?
[04:07] <syberdave> is there any way to get ubuntu 6.10 to use a newer kernel?
[04:07] <syberdave> since 2.6.16 won't work for my laptop
[04:07] <lufis> Decepticon: it means you get new software at a regular pace
[04:07] <syberdave> i manually booted 2.6.20.2 but i can't get nvidia drivers to work
[04:07] <dk1447> bruenig: yep, I added all the reps from the package manager already.
[04:07] <bruenig> dk1447, ok good, then yeah
[04:07] <drofdarb> Hey guys, is there any way to improve the font rendering under linux?

[04:08] <cX-kads> can any one help me with ssl, IRC
[04:08] <Decepticon> lufis and why does debian not want that kind of strategy? why do they adhere to such slow updating of software? surely there must be some benefit to that? what does it mean for me if a get debian vs what it means to get ubuntu

[04:08] <warder> can someone help with this problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11929/plain/
[04:08] <lufis> Decepticon: have no idea. ubuntu is actually based off of debian, so if you're wondering, it's just an idealogic difference
[04:08] <vox754> !offtopic  > Decepticon
[04:09] <Decepticon> right
[04:09] <kikkymonk> hey ubuntu is pretty fun

[04:09] <Decepticon> i see
[04:09] <Decepticon> i think ill talk in #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:09] <PriceChild> Decepticon, would it be ok to move this to #ubuntu-offtopic please? This is a support channel
[04:09] <Pollywog> is the guy who wanted to configure gdm userlist still here?
[04:09] <syberdave> ah, damn.. so i'll have to download fiesty
[04:09] <warder> if its not the graphics card what is it
[04:09] <PriceChild> Decepticon, hehe thanks :)
[04:09] <Decepticon> PriceChild, right on it
[04:09] <Adamantinus> Ohhhh, the fonts work if they're looked at in root!
[04:09] <quaal> what does this mean cp: reading `/media/cdrom0/video_ts/vts_01_0.bup': Input/output error
[04:09] <Adamantinus> How do I let users take ownership of the fonts?
[04:10] <warder> I am running on a P4 2.4 ghz proc
[04:10] <kikkymonk> how can i reset beryl to its default (or uninstall then re-install it)
[04:10] <linxeh> Adamantinus: sounds like you dont have the right file permissions or something
[04:10] <drew> DsB you might have messed up partitioning during install, im not positive though, try booting from your LiveCD, and running fdisk -l, then make changes to /etc/fstab file to match the output.
[04:10] <drofdarb> bruenig: ah, thanks.  But aren't bitstream and dejavu already true-type?  I'm just looking for a way to make them display a bit nicer.
[04:10] <bruenig> drofdarb, I don't know, I installed that and fonts got much better
[04:10] <drew> ask someone else though, im fairly new at this myself.
[04:10] <Adamantinus> Yeah, I think that's what it is. How do I get the right file permissions for all the fonts in /usr/share/fonts/X11?
[04:10] <greig__> lufis : just incase u wanted to know, u goto the configure shortcuts within amarok and choose custom and asign the key:) thanks u again
[04:10] <nootrope> Adamandtinus, change the permssions or add other users to same group as owner's
[04:10] <drofdarb> buenig: ah, okay I'm giving it a shot :)
[04:10] <linxeh> warder: it sounds like your graphics card might not be supported. what card do you have ? and which version are you using ?
[04:11] <drew> dont wanna make it worse for ya :) DsB
[04:11] <Adamantinus> Yeah I'm not sure how to do that though? Is there a terminal command?
[04:11] <lufis> drofdarb: There's a proprietary feature in freetype that makes fonts render better... but it's not available by default,you have to compile it yourself
[04:11] <Robbie> Anyone in here good with diagnosing and correcting audio problems? I'm having hell with my audigy ls card.
[04:11] <nootrope> Adamnatinus: check chmod
[04:11] <DsB> l
[04:11] <warder> fx 5200 128mb
[04:11] <lufis> greig__: ah, good
[04:11] <linxeh> Adamantinus: sudo chmod -R o+r /usr/share/fonts/X11
[04:11] <warder> version  ubuntu 6.10
[04:11] <quaal> what does this mean cp: reading `/media/cdrom0/video_ts/vts_01_0.bup': Input/output error
[04:11] <drofdarb> lufis: Hm, I'll check into that as well
[04:12] <linxeh> Adamantinus: there is a possibility the directories might need execute permissions too, but try that first
[04:12] <lufis> drofdarb: let  me find a link
[04:12] <Adamantinus> Ahh, nope, worked it all out.
[04:12] <linxeh> quaal: likely you need the decss library
[04:12] <bruenig> quaal, it means that it can't read that file on your dvd, that there is some error, perhaps it is encrypted?
[04:12] <Rrandy> Can anyone tell me how to turn off ipv6 in the live cd?  I can't install it, but I really want to show what it can do on this hardware - ipv6 doesn't seem to like the router that's installed though.  rmmod ipv6 gives an error message that module ipv6 is in use.  Any references would be much appreciated.
[04:12] <Adamantinus> I just right clicked, went to properties and set read and write for everything.
[04:12] <Adamantinus> Thanks.
[04:12] <dk1447> bruenig: ok its installed. Any idea on how to start it? Seems like it doesnt run automatically?
[04:12] <quaal> bruenig, ok, didnt know i had to decrypt
[04:12] <linxeh> Rrandy: modprobe -r ipv6
[04:12] <quaal> linxeh, is that a apt-get install decss ?
[04:12] <Mirth> Is a .RPM for Linux?
[04:13] <Robbie> Yes
[04:13] <linxeh> quaal: not sure - www.ubuntuguide.org tells you what to do iirc
[04:13] <Mirth> Is it like an exe Robbie?
[04:13] <bruenig> dk1447, it appears to be in /usr/sbin/telnetd
[04:13] <Robbie> Kinda
[04:13] <vox754> !rpm > Mirth
[04:13] <bruenig> dk1447, so you could presumably do "telnetd" or type that full path
[04:13] <drofdarb> lufis: I'll be right back.  I'm gonna restart my X-server
[04:13] <harlinw> are there any docs on trouble shooting why gparted will not resize an ntfs partition ?
[04:13] <Rrandy> linxeh: thank you, I get a FATAL exception that the module is in use.  I can't seem to find what's using it though.
[04:13] <bruenig> dk1447, might have to sudo telnetd, not sure on the permissions
[04:14] <arentoine> warder: try to press ctrl-alt F1 while boots, you will then be able to see if something is wrong ...
[04:14] <Mirth> vox754, that says it's not for Ubuntu o_O

[04:14] <nootrope> warder, i've found that installing ubuntu does a betteer job of finding correct drivers for more graphics cards than running the Live CD
[04:14] <bruenig> dk1447, man telnetd should give you other information too
[04:14] <warder> k
[04:15] <Pollywog> do do all Ubuntu (official) packages have ubuntu somewhere in the filename?
[04:15] <vox754> Mirth, there you go. That is true. Most packages are "source code" that can be packaged to .rpm or .deb
[04:15] <linxeh> Rrandy: hmm lsmod will tell you waht is using each module. you might need to run /etc/init.d/networking stop    to kill the networking, remove some modules, then start networking again
[04:15] <warder> later
[04:15] <Mirth> Ah.
[04:15] <drofdarb> lufis: okay, back :)
[04:15] <nootrope> later, warder
[04:15] <Pollywog> sorry for the stuttering
[04:15] <matthew1429> I'm having a problem... dmesg | grep DVD returns 2 instances of an hdc... but /dev has no /dev/hdc... what do I do?
[04:15] <arentoine> warder: it happened to me this morning with 7.04 and it was just a bad CD
[04:15] <Toma-> Pollywog: you might want to ask in #ubuntu-motu
[04:15] <dk1447> bruenig: ok seems like its started. But I cannot connect to it via securecrt on port 22. did I do something wrong?
[04:16] <Pollywog> what is motu?
[04:16] <arentoine> warder: I was able to see problems in the boot process and figured that out
[04:16] <bruenig> dk1447, I don't know much on the specifics of telnet, you can do "man telnetd" to see  what it says. But I don't know
[04:16] <linxeh> doesnt telnetd usually get run from inetd ?
[04:16] <bruenig> Pollywog, masters of the universe, they maintain the universe repository
[04:16] <Pollywog> oic thanks
[04:16] <matthew1429> I'm trying to simply mount my new dvd/r and the boot time is VERY LONG.... I'm having a problem... dmesg | grep DVD returns 2 instances of an hdc... but /dev has no /dev/hdc... what do I do?
[04:16] <linxeh> bruenig: have a look at installing xinetd, and then looking at /etc/xinetd.conf  etc
[04:16] <linxeh> bruenig: why do you want telnet though ?
[04:16] <lufis> drofdarb: :P
[04:17] <bruenig> linxeh, talk to dk1447, you can help him better, he is the one with the questions
[04:17] <linxeh> bruenig: oops sorry, red wine and all taht
[04:17] <linxeh> and the fact its 3:15am :)
[04:17] <matthew1429> I'm trying to simply mount my new dvd/r and the boot time is VERY LONG.... I'm having a problem... dmesg | grep DVD returns 2 instances of an hdc... but /dev has no /dev/hdc... what do I do?
[04:17] <Davren> What is dual monitors called in Ubuntu? having trouble finding the right keywords to search forums, FAQ, etc.
[04:18] <linxeh> Davren: dual head ?
[04:18] <lufis> drofdarb: http://avi.alkalay.net/linux/docs/font-howto/Font.html#bci
[04:18] <lufis> drofdarb: not something you want to do if you're new at this
[04:18] <Davren> thanks, I'll try dual head :-)
[04:19] <lufis> drofdarb: see this also http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/enable-smooth-fonts-on-ubuntu-linux/
[04:19] <vox754> matthew1429, don't repeat the question that fast. It seems that you have a bad entry on the /etc/fstab file that conflicts with another drive. Give more details.
[04:19] <matthew1429> vox754: sorry
[04:20] <Gishnob> hey
[04:20] <bruenig> matthew1429, yeah pastebinning your /etc/fstab, would be a good start
[04:20] <bruenig> !paste | matthew1429
[04:20] <ubotu> matthew1429: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:20] <Gishnob> i found some bugs in the new ubuntu 7.04 beta
[04:20] <ubuntu_noob> opengl
[04:20] <Gishnob> can someone help me report them?
[04:20] <bruenig> !bugs | Gishnob
[04:20] <ubotu> Gishnob: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots
[04:20] <K3nto> !borat
[04:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about borat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:20] <ubuntu_noob> Open GL
[04:21] <Davren> in case anyone else has two monitor, TwinView and Cinerama are good keywords
[04:21] <bruenig> Gishnob, also #ubuntu+1 is the channel for 7.04
[04:21] <Adamantinus> Rhythmbox isn't playing any .mp3's, do I need a codec for this or something?
[04:21] <vox754> matthew1429, I recommend also displaying the "sudo fdisk -l" output to see how are your partitions named.
[04:21] <Adamantinus> Every time it tries it gets a big red x.
[04:21] <Adamantinus> Next to the mp3.

[04:22] <bruenig> ubuntu_noob, what is your issue?
[04:23] <ubuntu_noob> I just wanted to know how to set opengl
[04:23] <bruenig> ubuntu_noob, that is probably a good #ubuntu-effects question

[04:27] <bruenig> harley, stop that
[04:27] <K3nto> how can i safely unmount my ubuntu partition so i can resize it?
[04:28] <harley> sorry, kept forgetting the channel
[04:28] <bruenig> K3nto, the root partition or some auxiliary partition?
[04:28] <harley> wont happen again
[04:28] <Sports_fan> how do you install the nvidia drivers with ubuntu dapper ?
[04:28] <K3nto> bruenig: root
[04:28] <AnRkey> aaahhh nevermind >> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OEMInstaller
[04:28] <lufis> K3nto: do it from a livecd
[04:28] <bruenig> K3nto, you are going to have to go live cd
[04:28] <posingaspopular> !nvidia
[04:28] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:28] <K3nto> k i got one
[04:28] <lufis> K3nto: in the live cd, run "gparted"
[04:28] <arentoine> I can't burn cd with 6.10.  Same pc in XP can burn without a problem.  It seems the gui is spinning but in logs I get "lost interrupt for <cd drive>". Any idea ^
[04:28] <bruenig> K3nto, Gnome partition editor it is called in the menus
[04:28] <AnRkey> crap
[04:29] <vox754> matthew1429, is that all you have? Seems odd.
[04:29] <AnRkey> that page does not exist
[04:29] <AnRkey> anyone else?
[04:29] <bruenig> arentoine, an iso?
[04:30] <arentoine> bruenig: anything : iso, data.  I tryed many formats
[04:30] <bruenig> arentoine, what is the name of your drive, /dev/whate
[04:30] <bruenig> what*
[04:30] <rg535748> I have an external ntfs hard drive (usb connection) that I can't seem to read from under my default user, only under root. Can someone help me with my fstab please?
[04:30] <bruenig> rg535748, what does that line of the fstab say?
[04:31] <rg535748> it says: /dev/sdb1 /home/rg535748/Desktop/EXTERNAL auto users,atime,auto,rw,nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
[04:31] <ubuntu_noob> ati
[04:31] <bruenig> rg and it is ntfs?
[04:31] <arentoine> bruenig :checking ...
[04:31] <rg535748> yes it is NTFS
[04:31] <bruenig> rg535748, did you set that up?
[04:31] <ubuntu_noob> ati driver
[04:31] <rg535748> Yes, that's my default user
[04:32] <bruenig> rg535748, but you wrote that, not the installer, well you must have, it is mounted on the desktop for some strange reason
[04:32] <rg535748> Well, that is where I wanted to put it.. is that wrong?
[04:32] <arentoine> bruenig : hda: HP DVD Writer 640b, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
[04:32] <harley> is it possible to disable the password request for updating?
[04:33] <vox754> matthew1429, from what I see I assume you got a new harddrive to which you installed Ubuntu with the default partitioning hda, and you also have a second hard drive hdb, which you use to store. But what did you do with the CD/DVD drive? did you changed it since the installation?
[04:33] <rg535748> bruenig:  Yes, I wrote it myself. Should it be someplace else?
[04:33] <bruenig> rg535748, put it where you want, the rw needs to go because you can't write to ntfs
[04:33] <rg535748> Well, yeah, don't wanna risk using fuse
[04:33] <Prez_> any intel_hda sound card users? can someone use card after resume from suspend, mine is mute, but i see no errors anywhere
[04:34] <bruenig> rg535748, change the "auto" to "ntfs" and I would change the options to something like "ro,user,auto,fmask=0111,dmask=0000
[04:34] <Rrandy> Does anyone know offhand, what the numbers stand for in the output of lsmod, "ipv6 272288 10", where ipv6 is under heading "Module", 272288 is under heading "size" and 10 is under heading "used by" - what would the number 10 refer to?
[04:34] <bruenig> or users if you want
[04:34] <harley> is it possible to disable the password request for updating? if not, how do u extend the period of time logged in as admin
[04:35] <Mirth> Anyone know how I can get Shortcut Smileys in GAIM?
[04:35] <Mirth> Like Ctrl + 1 = :)
[04:35] <rg535748> Okay I changed it and did a sudo mount -a
[04:35] <vox754> Rrandy, I think it is a process, which you can consult with another command, which I can't remember.
[04:35] <salman> deb are not working, i double click and nothing happens
[04:35] <bruenig> harley, why do you want to disable the password for update (by which I assume you mean sudo apt-get update)
[04:36] <rg535748> bruenig: /dev/sdb1 /home/rg535748/Desktop/EXTERNAL ntfs ro,user,auto,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0
[04:36] <bruenig> salman, do sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb from the command line
[04:36] <rg535748> IS that okay?
[04:36] <harley> i have this computer setup for an elderly gentlemen
[04:36] <Rrandy> vox754: thanks - as in 'ps ax' probably then.
[04:36] <lufis> harley: aw
[04:36] <bruenig> rg535748, yeah, you can change it to "users" too like you had it. I don't know why I didn't leave that intact
[04:36] <Arbosis> can anybody help me? my live cd for amd 64 doesn't load the desktop
[04:36] <dk_ii> !beagle
[04:36] <ubotu> beagle: indexing and search tool for your personal data. In component main, is optional. Version 0.2.9-1ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 804 kB, installed size 3160 kB
[04:36] <jetscreamer> 8xxx nvidia no doubt
[04:36] <harley> trying to make it easy as possible for him. any tips or advice by chance
[04:36] <rg535748> bruenig: What do I have to put there to allow my default user (I guess his ID would be like 1000) to access it?
[04:37] <lufis> Arbosis: what do you mean by desktop? no gui whatsoever?
[04:37] <Arbosis> it stays like konsole
[04:37] <bruenig> harley, typing the password is a big thing in linux, what keeps it secure. Unless you are thinking to have him logged in as root or something all the time which is extremely dangerous, he is going to need to learn to type the password
[04:37] <lufis> Arbosis: so just command line?
[04:37] <Mirth> Anyone know how I can get Shortcut Smileys in GAIM? Like Ctrl+1 = :)?
[04:37] <Arbosis> yes
[04:37] <bruenig> rg535748, the fmask and dmask should take care of that
[04:37] <lufis> Arbosis: type startx
[04:37] <vox754> Arbosis, don't use the amd64 version for a desktop installation, try the i386 one, it is better.
[04:37] <harley> well alright, i guess it isnt that big of a deal. any other tips for older people?
[04:37] <salman> help plz
[04:37] <rg535748> bruenig: I did that, did sudo mount -a, and still can't access it.
[04:38] <lufis> salman: just ask your question :)
[04:38] <Arbosis> what does startx ?
[04:38] <bruenig> rg535748, you should be able to, if you want to add uid=1000 to it, you can try
[04:38] <salman> debs arent working
[04:38] <bruenig> salman, do sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb from the command line
[04:38] <lufis> Arbosis: startx starts X
[04:38] <salman> ill try
[04:38] <lufis> Arbosis: X is the gui
[04:39] <Arbosis> ok, i'll try that, thanks
[04:39] <lufis> :)
[04:39] <Arbosis> :)
[04:39] <rg535748> bruenig:  bash: cd: EXTERNAL/: Permission denied
[04:40] <bruenig> rg535748, should work
[04:40] <rg535748> bruenig: Doesn't, and I don't know why. :(
[04:40] <bruenig> rg535748, the fmask and dmask is setup to allow anyone to read it
[04:40] <bruenig> and change into it
[04:40] <quaal> linxeh, hmm
[04:40] <rg535748> so what am I doing wrong?
[04:40] <quaal> i read that guide
[04:40] <quaal> did this after unmounting dd if=/dev/cdrom of=file.iso bs=1024
[04:40] <bruenig> rg535748, don't know can you sudo cd into it
[04:40] <quaal> and i get dd: reading `/dev/cdrom': Input/output error
[04:41] <quaal> same thing
[04:41] <salman> is kiba-dock in any of the repositories?
[04:41] <Mirth> is there a GAIM channel?
[04:41] <bruenig> arentoine, did you say it was /dev/hda?
[04:41] <rg535748> bruenig: sudo gives me a 'cd command not found'
[04:41] <linxeh> quaal: did you read the bit about dvd playback?
[04:41] <arentoine> bruenig : the drive is : hda: HP DVD Writer 640b, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
[04:41] <tonyyarusso> Mirth: "Join us in #gaim or #wingaim on irc.freenode.net for answers to questions and general gaim discussion."
[04:42] <bruenig> rg535748, yeah don't know. Did you unmount it before you sudo mount -a
[04:42] <rg535748> nope
[04:42] <bruenig> arentoine, I need to know the /dev/whatever name
[04:42] <arentoine> /dev/hda
[04:42] <bruenig> are you telling me it is /dev/hda or not
[04:42] <bruenig> oik
[04:42] <bruenig> arentoine, so do you have an iso laying around
[04:42] <rg535748> bruenig: How do I unmount it?
[04:42] <arentoine> bruenig : yes I do
[04:42] <bruenig> rg535748, sudo unmount /dev/sdb1
[04:43] <bruenig> umount*
[04:43] <misfit_toy> man, tried to get the latest compiz installed from source, got all the dep's finally, ./configure, make, make insall, all went well, but I still get that issue where there are no window controls...
[04:43] <bruenig> arentoine, ok cd into the directory where it is and do "cdrecord dev=/dev/hda whatever.iso" and see what happens
[04:43] <j0sh0> hi, could someone please tell me where i can download te appropriate build-essentials (and dependencies suc as libc-dev, linux-kernel-headers etc) for ubuntu 6.10?? I've tried debian.packages.org but the libc-dev package wont install because it is an older version of libc (version 2.3.2 whereas edgy has 2.4?)
[04:43] <[BTF] Chm0d> where are the *.desktop files located in ubuntu?
[04:43] <rg535748> It works!
[04:43] <Mirth> Nobody is active in the GAIM channel :(
[04:43] <tonyyarusso> j0sh0: From your repos
[04:43] <tonyyarusso> [BTF] Chm0d: /usr/share somewhere I think
[04:44] <bruenig> [BTF] Chm0d, /usr/share/applications and also at ~/.local/applications (not positive on the second one)
[04:44] <arentoine> burenig : will do ... stand by
[04:44] <[BTF] Chm0d> hmm
[04:44] <bruenig> rg535748, ok good

[04:44] <epkphoto> can anyone tell me the kernel version that shipped with Ubuntu Feisty Herd 5?
[04:44] <Pollywog> is the guy who wanted to configure gdm userlist still here?
[04:44] <j0sh0> tonyyarusso: eah, i normally would, except that I cant access the net thru ubuntu - i've got dual boot on my system so I'm on XP atm
[04:44] <tonyyarusso> Pollywog: 2.6.20-9, I think
[04:45] <tonyyarusso> j0sh0: ah.  Then, packages.ubuntu.com
[04:45] <rg535748> What programs can I use with my TV tuner card to watch TV on linux?
[04:45] <j0sh0> tonyyarusso: cheers mate!
[04:45] <Pollywog> MythTV works with some
[04:45] <epkphoto> 2.6.20-9 sounds about right
[04:45] <arentoine> burenig : cdrecord starts with last line (still running) is :Device seems to be: Generic mmc2 DVD-R/DVD-RW.
[04:45] <Mirth> Anyone know how I can get Shortcut Smileys in GAIM? Like Ctrl+1 = :)?
[04:45] <uberspaced> greetings.
[04:46] <uberspaced> i'm working through a tutorial on something and it mentions /etc/inetd.conf
[04:46] <uberspaced> and i dont have that file.
[04:46] <arrenlex> Wow... unless it's hiding messages, the kernel was the cleanest compile EVER. There were like 10 warnings in the whole thing.
[04:46] <uberspaced> i'm wondering if ubuntu takes care of that stuff in a different way
[04:46] <epkphoto> since 2.6.20-12 is currently in Feisty beta
[04:46] <linxeh> Mirth: how is that a shortcut ? it is harder to type than :) :P
[04:46] <uberspaced> OR if i create the file and dump the stuff in there will the stuff that uses it know what to do?
[04:46] <arentoine> burenig :got the message : ide-cd: cmd 0x3 timed out

[04:47] <arentoine> burenig : AND hdb: lost interrupt
[04:47] <Mirth> that is : o, without the space here
[04:47] <Mirth> But not in GAIM
[04:47] <arrenlex> Mirth: Don't use GAIM for irc.
[04:47] <K3nto> ok im in the live cd. how can i resize my ubuntu root partition
[04:47] <Mirth> Im not using it for IRC arrenlex :D
[04:47] <Mugwump09> I installed ubuntu alternative, I can log in, but then it plays the song and nothing else happens
[04:47] <eka> how do you get mp3's to work in ubuntu 6.10?
[04:47] <arrenlex> Mirth: Oh, aight. Gaim uses the native icons of the IM protocol you're chatting on by default.
[04:48] <arentoine> burenig : the drive is now showing any activity
[04:48] <uberspaced> eka, apt-get install mpg-123

[04:48] <bruenig> arentoine, are you sure it is hda, it usually gives hda to hard drives

[04:48] <Mugwump09> someone, please help me
[04:48] <bruenig> arentoine, if it is hda and that is not working, then there is something wrong, I don't know what though, hardware failure maybe?

[04:51] <bruenig> quaal, what are dvd files in your mind?
[04:51] <K3nto> bruenig: i made unallocated space, move it to the extended partition which contains my root and swap; i go to resize the root but it wont let me drag the resizing bar.
[04:51] <quaal> bruenig, .vob
[04:51] <quaal> the files you find on a dvd
[04:51] <bruenig> K3nto, wait, explain a little better what you are doing?
[04:52] <bruenig> quaal, it probably is a problem with encryption
[04:52] <Mugwump09> can someone please help?
[04:52] <quaal> bruenig, do i need some kind of program then?
[04:52] <bruenig> !dvd
[04:52] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[04:52] <K3nto> bruenig: im resizing my ubuntu root partition. i want to take space from m windows one and add it to my root one.
[04:52] <quaal> Mugwump09, nobody knows how to help "someone that needs help"
[04:53] <bruenig> K3nto, ok if you could list off the partitions in order and which one has what on it
[04:53] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: Are you stuck right now?
[04:53] <Mugwump09> yes
[04:53] <Apocrypha> Don't ask for 'help' ask the question :p
[04:53] <Mugwump09> I did!
[04:53] <bruenig> K3nto, I am having a hard time envisioning what your partition table looks like
[04:53] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: If so, you might get back to the login with control-alt-backspace
[04:53] <Mugwump09> okay I will try that
[04:53] <Mugwump09> thank you
[04:54] <Apocrypha> oh, he did
[04:54] <Mirth> What is a .so file?
[04:54] <penguin> anyone know why?
[04:54] <sbalneav> Mirth: Shared Object, same as a .dll in windows.
[04:54] <bruenig> penguin, try doing sudo apt-get install -f
[04:54] <Mirth> Ah.
[04:54] <Mirth> Thanks sbalneav
[04:55] <Gishnob> hrmm
[04:55] <Gishnob> seems like i cant enable desktop effects
[04:55] <Banekartr> Hey all.  Is there a way that all of the users can share the same codecs?  Right now I have been installing per user and there must be a better way.
[04:55] <bruenig> Banekartr, all users do share the same codecs
[04:55] <Rictoo> How would I remount my windows partition (hd1)?
[04:55] <Banekartr> humm
[04:55] <bruenig> Banekartr, if you install them from the repositories
[04:56] <arren1ex> Banekartr: How can you install a package per-user?
[04:56] <Banekartr> I was running Automatrix to assist with some of the installs.
[04:56] <bruenig> haha
[04:56] <Banekartr> is that a bad way to do it?
[04:56] <arren1ex> !automatix
[04:56] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:56] <Rictoo> How would I remount my windows partition (hd1)?
[04:56] <santagada> do someone knows if I can install an ubuntu from the network (ssh or something)
[04:56] <arren1ex> Yes.
[04:56] <santagada> ssh would be the best
[04:56] <apokryphos> santagada: /msg ubotu install
[04:57] <bruenig> Rictoo, ok what is its name in terms of /dev/<name>
[04:57] <Rictoo> /dev/hd1
[04:57] <Banekartr> automatrix = bad then.   got it.
[04:57] <santagada> apokryphos: thanks
[04:57] <Rictoo> hda1*
[04:57] <Rictoo> nm, someone else told me, thanks =p
[04:57] <K3nto> bruenig: http://img15.imgspot.com/?u=/u/07/82/22/Screenshot.png the fatxx stuff is dell crap, the ntfs one is my windows, and the stuff in the extended one is my ubuntu root and swap
[04:57] <arentoine> bruenig : sudo don't help for cdrecord... I will try to find an old cd rw and see if it works.  Thanks for your help.
[04:57] <bruenig> Rictoo, ok, and you just want to mount it once or have it mount at boot each time?
[04:57] <penguin> bruenig, still doesnt work, and when i accept to install it, my download fails, even though i have a perfectly working internet connection, as you can see. :D
[04:57] <Rictoo> bruenig, eavh time
[04:57] <Rictoo> each*
[04:58] <santagada> apokryphos: do you know if the information is already up to date to feisty beta?
[04:58] <Mirth> Im dragging a file to a folder, and it says I need permission.  Is there a way I can drag it in there without using the termimal?
[04:58] <apokryphos> santagada: no, but it shouldn't have changed between edgy and feisty.
[04:58] <Mugwump09> didn't work
[04:58] <apokryphos> santagada: feisty support is also not in this channel; see #ubuntu+1
[04:58] <Mugwump09> it freezes up right after I log in
[04:58] <Rictoo> bruenig, each time
[04:59] <bruenig> Rictoo, ok well first make the mount point with "sudo mkdir /media/windows" and then do "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab" and add the following line "/dev/hda1 /media/windows ntfs ro,user,auto,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0" and save and exit. It should then mount automatically at boot. You can mount it now by doing "sudo mount -a"
[04:59] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: Does it freeze up at the song?
[04:59] <Mugwump09> yeah
[04:59] <Banekartr> thanks for the help guys
[04:59] <Rictoo> Wow, thanks alot bruenig!
[04:59] <Rictoo> <3
[04:59] <bruenig> K3nto, yeah you can't really do anything, ext3 is stuck
[05:00] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: What kind of sound card?
[05:00] <Mugwump09> on-board
[05:00] <Mugwump09> asus A8N-sli premium
[05:00] <K3nto> bruenig: stuck?
[05:00] <penguin> bruenig, still doesnt work, and when i accept to install it, my download fails, even though i have a perfectly working internet connection, as you can see. :D
[05:00] <bruenig> K3nto, you can't add space at the beginning of a partition without formatting
[05:00] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: OK, here's a test: go into your bios, and disable the sound card.  Then try.
[05:00] <K3nto> i see
[05:00] <Mugwump09> okay
[05:00] <Mugwump09> thx
[05:00] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: If it works, it's something with the sound card.
[05:00] <bruenig> penguin, yeah don't know, sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplayer-installer maybe?
[05:01] <stubblechin> I'm trying to get Flurdy's Postfix howto working, and I can receive mail, but I can't send it
[05:01] <stubblechin> in my auth.log, i have sql plugin could not connect to host 127.0.0.1
[05:01] <Rictoo> Yay!
[05:01] <Rictoo> bruenig,  worked! <3<3<3
[05:01] <PinkFloyd> !vino
[05:01] <ubotu> vino: VNC server for GNOME. In component main, is optional. Version 2.16.0-0ubuntu2.4 (edgy), package size 173 kB, installed size 1956 kB
[05:02] <bruenig> Rictoo, god
[05:02] <bruenig> good
[05:02] <PinkFloyd> Yeah, that doesnt help me at all
[05:02] <PinkFloyd> Can anyone point me to a detailed description of Vino
[05:02] <Rictoo> Davren, get off root..............
[05:02] <bruenig> yeah stupid ubotu, that didn't help him at all
[05:02] <PinkFloyd> Such as how to run it?
[05:02] <nfearnley> I'm looking for an id3 reader for the scripts. I need something that I can do `id3 -a myfile.mp3` and it will give the contents of the artist tag. I've tried half a dozen packages, but they all just list everything.
[05:02] <Sulo_Seppa> Is it true that ubuntu has AIDS? It would make sense since it comes from Africa, right?
[05:03] <Mirth> Im dragging a file to a folder, and it says I need permission. Is there a way I can drag it in there without using the termimal?
[05:03] <penguin> bruenig - still no, cant find package.
[05:03] <Rictoo> Sulo_Seppa, common misconception
[05:03] <penguin> even though its sitting on my desktop.
[05:03] <Rictoo> It has siphilis
[05:03] <Giscal> can any recommend a good Rss Reader for Linux, one that preferably has good filtering functionality
[05:03] <PinkFloyd> Mirth: Doubt it
[05:03] <Mirth> Damn...
[05:03] <bruenig> penguin, I don't know then, I have never had apt get mad at me for some reason, I have been lucky
[05:03] <penguin> damn.
[05:03] <PinkFloyd> Mirth: You'll have to chmod it
[05:03] <Mirth> Don't know what that is :(
[05:03] <penguin> any way that i can reinstall apt-get?
[05:03] <Mirth> ~chmod
[05:04] <Mirth> !chmod
[05:04] <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
[05:04] <Mirth> Yikes
[05:04] <Mirth> I really hate that permissions crap
[05:04] <Mirth> Feels like Im in Vista :D
[05:04] <tonyyarusso> Giscal: Sage for Firefox was decentish, but simple
[05:04] <PinkFloyd> why not sudo it?
[05:04] <Mirth> I don't no how to...
[05:04] <Mirth> lol
[05:04] <bruenig> penguin, maybe using the -m switch will help, sudo apt-get -m install whatever
[05:04] <Mirth> know*
[05:05] <Rictoo> apt-get install apt-get
[05:05] <Rictoo> LOL
[05:05] <PinkFloyd> Mirth: sudo cp
[05:05] <tonyyarusso> !sudo | Mirth
[05:05] <ubotu> Mirth: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:05] <Giscal> tonyyarusso, I'll give it a try, thanks
[05:05] <penguin> was just reading that bruenig.
[05:05] <penguin> still no :(
[05:05] <penguin> bruenig, is there any way that i can reinstall apt-get
[05:06] <bruenig> penguin, that is a confusing idea, maybe if there is some deb you can do it with dpkg
[05:06] <RegalEagle> Mirth: Im querying you, are you registered?
[05:06] <sbalneav> penguin: what problem are you having with apt?
[05:06] <Mirth> Im not RegalEagle
[05:06] <dk_ii> how do I get Java to work in Swiftfox?
[05:06] <Mirth> Don't know how to :D
[05:06] <penguin> whenever i apt-get install something, it tries to install flashplayer-installer.
[05:06] <penguin> and if i do accept to download it, the download fails.
[05:07] <RegalEagle> Mirth: try this
[05:07] <RegalEagle> Mirth: sudo cp dir newdir
[05:07] <bruenig> penguin, do you have third party repos or what, flashplayer-installer isn't even in the repos
[05:07] <RegalEagle> example
[05:08] <penguin> bruenig, yes.
[05:08] <RegalEagle> Mirth: sudo cp /etc/bin/blah /etc/sbin/blah
[05:08] <RegalEagle> Mirth: Notice how I copied from bin to sbin
[05:08] <bruenig> penguin, maybe if you comment it out and sudo apt-get update or something
[05:08] <Mirth> Ah.
[05:08] <sbalneav> penguin: try: sudo aptitude purge flashplugin-nonfree
[05:08] <RegalEagle> Mirth: and you use the sudo to grant super-user so you wont have to chmod it
[05:08] <bruenig> sbalneav, it is flashplayer-installer and I already tried that
[05:09] <Mirth> so I just "space" from one dir to the other?
[05:09] <arren1ex> penguin: Strongly advise you not to have third-party repos. They screw up your system.
[05:09] <RegalEagle> Mirth: yes
[05:09] <bruenig> sbalneav, purge isn't really anymore absolute, it isn't like a force switch, all it does is remove configuration files so it wouldn't really halp
[05:09] <Mirth> Okay, will try that out!
[05:09] <RegalEagle> Mirth: olddir newdir
[05:09] <Mugwump09> I disabled my soundcard, still freezes up at the song
[05:09] <penguin> badly?
[05:09] <bruenig> s/halp/help/
[05:09] <penguin> bruenig, why?
[05:09] <bruenig> I use third party repos
[05:09] <Rictoo> guys
[05:09] <Rictoo> noone is answering me in #ati
[05:09] <sbalneav> flashplayer-installer isn't a package on my machine.  Only flashplugin-nonfree
[05:09] <arren1ex> penguin: I've seen it screw up systems so you can't install or remove anything.
[05:10] <Rictoo> Whats the best driver for the Radeon 9200?
[05:10] <bruenig> sbalneav, third party
[05:10] <RoTTeNSeeD> hi! im having problems instaling ubuntu in my computer. i select the safe mode to start, but after 5 minitis waiting with the logo in the background (in black and white), the screen turn black. im using an ati for graphics
[05:10] <penguin> k.
[05:10] <arren1ex> Rictoo: Define "best".
[05:10] <sbalneav> ah.
[05:10] <arentoine> burening : just a followup : I DO can burn cd with 7.04 beta.  I can wait until the final release ...  Good night !
[05:10] <penguin> arrenlex - ill get rid of the entries in synaptic.
[05:10] <RegalEagle> RoTTeNSeeD: What's the specs of your computer?
[05:10] <mjr> Rictoo, use the free one, fglrx doesn't even support it anymore
[05:10] <Mirth> RegalEagle: Got it, thanks a bunch!
[05:10] <Rictoo> Meaning the... best?
[05:10] <Rictoo> The most used?
[05:10] <Rictoo> The 'ati' driver doesn't even give me all the resolutions my driver supports
[05:11] <RegalEagle> Mirth: Glad to help ;)
[05:11] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: ok, can you switch to <alt><f1>, at the text login?

[05:11] <bill_k> just wanted to report that part of a mythtv guide at help.ubuntu.com/community/ is out of date.  I don't know how to fix it myself, otherwise I would. Can anyone tell me who to contact about this?
[05:11] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: login as yourself, and see where it's at at the login.  Be interesting to see where it's hanging up at with a ps -ef
[05:12] <Rictoo> mjr, what 'free' one?
[05:12] <Rictoo> thanks, ubotu
[05:12] <sbalneav> Why does he keep leaving the room?
[05:12] <bruenig> !thanks | Rictoo
[05:12] <ubotu> Rictoo: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[05:12] <penguin> arrenlex - k, got rid of repos in synaptic package manager.
[05:12] <Rictoo> -.-'
[05:12] <Rictoo> I realised xD
[05:13] <arren1ex> penguin: That doesn't help if you've already installed packages from them which mess up your system... I hope you haven't.
[05:13] <arren1ex> penguin: What did you have enabled?
[05:13] <Rictoo> arren1ex,
[05:13] <Rictoo> That page only shows how to do it for fglrx -.-'
 Rictoo, use the free one, fglrx doesn't even support it anymore
[05:13] <RegalEagle> Is there anyway to use an S-Video output in Ubuntu?
[05:13] <arren1ex> Rictoo: No, adding resolutions to modes works for all drivers.
[05:14] <penguin> arrenlex - i havent, ive installed xchat, ntfs-g3, and i think thats it.
[05:14] <PovAddict> OMG 982 people in the channel!
[05:14] <PovAddict> most crowded channel on the server :P
[05:14] <RegalEagle> Is there anyway to use an S-Video output in Ubuntu?
[05:14] <arren1ex> PovAddict: It's actually a slow period. Usually > 1000
[05:14] <Rictoo> arren1ex, so it's basically cheating? =p
[05:14] <penguin> sbalneav - i think you fixed my problem, muchos gracias.

[05:19] <pingpongboss> everything's in fstab too..
[05:19] <Mugwump09> download was flawless
[05:19] <kkd> Hello everyone. it took me a long time to figure out how to configure gaim to login to this irc chanel. pretty difficult for first time linux user.
[05:19] <pingpongboss> xchat ftw :D
[05:19] <bruenig> kkd, xchat is easier
[05:19] <kkd> ok
[05:20] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: Might be something with your video card.  What kind is it?
[05:20] <bruenig> kkd, and irc is not a linux only thing, it is all graphical, so don't do this linux is hard garbage
[05:20] <bruenig> at least do it on something that makes sense
[05:20] <RegalEagle> I guess no one knows about S-Video outputs in Ubuntu
[05:20] <pingpongboss> bruenig i think she means trying to use gaim with irc
[05:20] <Alex__> Question, if i told the install disk to partition 100gb of 300gb to the ubuntu install, how long should it take with 50gb of stuff already on drive?
[05:21] <Mugwump09> sbalneav:GeForce 7800 GT
[05:21] <RegalEagle> Alex__: Depends on your HD's write speed
[05:21] <Arrick> guys, I just saw the web configuration page for a ubuntu 6.10 system and I ave to hand it to you, I havent seen a MS server that is that configurable yet, so you're going in the right direction.
[05:21] <pingpongboss> does anyone know how to delete a file on a fat32 flashdrive without it automatically sending to .Trash-<username> ?
[05:21] <bruenig> pingpongboss, sounded like a generic, linux is hard for newbies thing. But if you are complaining about graphically setting up an irc account on gaim, that is a bit overboard
[05:21] <bruenig> pingpongboss, rm it
[05:21] <Alex__> any idea of some average regal?
[05:21] <Arrick> and the nice thing is, its not a txt file that you have to type out
[05:21] <kkd> for someone who is used to microsoft os . it was not easy.  but i am not complaining.
[05:22] <pingpongboss> bruenig, k
[05:22] <arentoine> pingpongboss : or shift-del on gui
[05:22] <RoTTeNSeeD> have somebody installed ubuntu with an ati radeon? please i need help
[05:22] <pingpongboss> arentoine, oh right, should've tried that
[05:22] <sbalneav> Mugwump09: Well, don't know what I can suggest.  In the past, when I've had this sort of locking up, I fixed it by updating my bios.  So you might want to check if there's a bios update for your mobo.
[05:22] <RegalEagle> Alex__: It took roughly 45 minutes to install it on my old 300Mhz, 96MB RAM, 9GB HD HP machine from 1998
[05:22] <Mirth> Got kinda a big problem guys.
[05:22] <Arrick> no problem too big, all problems too small
[05:22] <beg1689> anyone know a nice graphical editor with syntax higlighting and indentation (for C/C++), sort of like kate, but without the KDE crap?
[05:23] <bruenig> beg1689, gedot
[05:23] <RegalEagle> Mirth: ?
[05:23] <bruenig> gedit
[05:23] <pingpongboss> gedit has highlighting..
[05:23] <Mirth> On the top right corner, I used to have the Network Manager icon, Power Level Icon, GAIM icon (when GAIM was on), but now they aren't there@
[05:23] <Alex__> RegalEagle: thats not a good sign for me
[05:23] <RegalEagle> Alex__: Id estimate no more than 15 minutes
[05:23] <knicknic> is there any way to install ubuntu from an existing linux distro (I dont have a cdrom drive)
[05:23] <pingpongboss> Mirth are u sure u have a Notification Area on ur panel?
[05:23] <Mirth> Im not sure...
[05:23] <Alex__> for 50gb?
[05:24] <RegalEagle> Alex__: Out of 300? You're fine
[05:24] <Mirth> How do I find out pingpongboss?
[05:24] <RegalEagle> Mirth: Restart X?
[05:24] <pingpongboss> Mirth, u could try right click on panel, Add to Panel
[05:24] <Mirth> I did restart, hehe
[05:24] <arren1ex> knicknic: There's lots of creative ways to install ubuntu without a cdrom.
[05:24] <RegalEagle> oic
[05:24] <bruenig> knicknic, it can be done, but it is probably pretty hard, if you could get all the files in order and edit the grub configuration of your distro, you could do it seemingly
[05:24] <arren1ex> !install | knicknic
[05:24] <pingpongboss> Mirth then add the Notification Area applet on the bottom
[05:24] <ubotu> knicknic: 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 - See also !automate
[05:24] <beg1689> hm...
[05:24] <pingpongboss> Mirth, not 100% sure but it might help
[05:24] <Alex__> RegalEagle: i think somthing went wrong been waiting for like 2 hours
[05:24] <beg1689> any plugins for gedit that will make it indent my code for me? (im too lazy for the tab key)
[05:25] <Mirth> Okay, that worked pingpongboss
[05:25] <arren1ex> beg1689: emacs? =P
[05:25] <Mirth> Thanks
[05:25] <pingpongboss> beg1689, auto indent? u can configure it on gconf for gedit
[05:25] <pingpongboss> Mirth, woot :D
[05:25] <ucimok> beg:1689: i think tabbing's built in
[05:25] <arrenlex> Alex__: What happened?
[05:25] <penguin> should i install all of the 147 updates that i can, or be selective?
[05:26] <pingpongboss> penguin, depends on what repositories u got i guess
[05:26] <penguin> just the default.
[05:26] <pingpongboss> penguin, i'd update all if i have all the official ones
[05:26] <Alex__> arrenLex: what happened in the install?
[05:26] <beg1689> pingpongboss: thanks, no t has everything i want in a text editor
[05:26] <erstazi> anyone have an idea how to attack this bug: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/control-center/+bug/82373
[05:26] <knicknic> arren1ex thanks
[05:26] <arentoine> penguin, I install everything all the time without problems
[05:26] <RoTTeNSeeD> can somebody help me install ubuntu with a graphic card: ati radeon? i cant start with live cd
[05:27] <arren1ex> Alex__: I just saw you saying something was frozen and was asking what to see if I could suggest anything.
[05:27] <arren1ex> Alex__: If it's an install I probably can't help you, sorry.
[05:27] <beg1689> also i just noticed auto-indent is right in the preferences, stupid me
[05:27] <el_isma> Hello! I'm having trouble setting up boinc. I'm running Kubuntu 6.10. After I install boinc-client and boinc-manager and run boincmgr, the gui crashes. Repository version is 5.4.11-1. I tried installing debian's latest packages (5.4.11-4) and it didn't work. Anybody can help me?
[05:27] <pingpongboss> RoTTeNSeeD, try the alternative install CD?
[05:27] <arentoine> RoTTeNSeeD : did you start it "VGA"
[05:27] <immerohnegott> i'm having some troubles with my Audigy SE - it's recognized (as an Audigy LS) and whenever ANY type of sound plays, it just outputs really loud white noise. anyone have any ideas?
[05:27] <RoTTeNSeeD> i start in both modes, safe , and not
[05:27] <pingpongboss> beg1689, gconf is a way to edit preferences :P that's what i wsa trying to say
[05:28] <Alex__> arrenlex: oh well, i had told it to partition a hard drive and it has been working on it for 2 hours
[05:28] <RoTTeNSeeD> and it crash when finish to load with the logo in the background, the logo shows in black and white
[05:28] <arentoine> RoTTeNSeeD : My card is a X200 from ATI and it worked with live CD.  Wich card is it
[05:29] <beg1689> pingpongboss: i know, i opened gconf and enabled auto-indent, then i noticed it was right in gedits preferences
[05:29] <RoTTeNSeeD> ati radeon 9550
[05:29] <arentoine> RoTTeNSeeD : PCI ?
[05:29] <beg1689> eww ati
[05:29] <arren1ex> Alex__: Hope you backed up.
[05:29] <knicknic> Alex__ 2 hours to partition an hd is too long
[05:29] <pingpongboss> beg1689, ohhh. u had a typo in ur response, so i thought u were talking about somehting else xD silly me
[05:29] <RoTTeNSeeD> arentoine: yes, pci
[05:30] <arentoine> RoTTeNSeeD : with an onboard card ?
[05:30] <Alex__> knicknic it was 300gb and had 50 gb used
[05:30] <wolfspiri1> this is not a direct question but more of a general query.. has anyone had any issues with tomcat and ubuntu?
[05:30] <RoTTeNSeeD> im using and amd athlon 64bits,3000. i tried with the cd for amd64bit
[05:30] <erstazi> wolfspiri1: no, is there an issue?
[05:30] <knicknic> Alex__: okay, but I have partitioned 1tb drives in less time
[05:30] <knicknic> *1tb raid arrays not a drive
[05:31] <FearMoth> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11940/   .. I'm trying to install liblame-dev, but I'm getting the error
[05:31] <Alex__> knicknic is it because i am partitioning with the live disk partioner?
[05:31] <wolfspiri1> erstazi: I would have to set it up again (which I'm going to try) but when I tried before (about a week ago) I couldn't get my webapps to run.. I was able to get tomcat itself loaded but the webapp just wouldn't load correctly
[05:31] <FearMoth> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11940/   .. I'm trying to install liblame-dev, but I'm getting the error Couldn't find package liblame-dev ... what do I need to add to my sources.list?
[05:33] <Alex__> knicknic if i cancel now what will happen to the hard drive?
[05:33] <vox754> RoTTeNSeeD, don't use AMD64, use the i386 instead, it is better supported for desktop users
[05:33] <RoTTeNSeeD> ok, im downloading it
[05:33] <matthew1429> vox754: thank you for the advice, hey everyone I am having a couple of problems... boot time is forever and linux isn't "seeing" my dvd/r that I just installed... I have pasted an fdisk -l, a dmesg | grep DVD, and my etc/fstab to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11934/
[05:34] <arentoine> RoTTeNSeeD : usually the use of a pci card is for a second card with an existing onboard AGP/PCI express main graphic card.  So, if you have a main onboard card, try to enable it to install ubuntu.  You could then switch it back to the 9550 after (that's what I did with a friend's system).
[05:34] <vox754> matthew1429, so I guess you haven't solved your issues yet
[05:35] <RoTTeNSeeD> ok, i will try to start with themotherborad card and then change, thanks :)
[05:35] <matthew1429> I'm totally okay with being pointed somewhere
[05:35] <vox754> matthew1429, I messaged you about an hour ago, but probably you were on the can
[05:35] <Rictoo> !multires | HawtRictoo
[05:35] <matthew1429> actually I did have a little drama
[05:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about multires - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:35] <Rictoo> hmm
[05:35] <matthew1429> to take care of
[05:35] <Rictoo> what is it again?
[05:35] <matthew1429> I am truly sorry vox
[05:36] <Alex__> any one have any idea why my disc partitioning is taking so long?
[05:36] <nexus> why ubuntu if exist windows vista
[05:36] <Rictoo> !help
[05:36] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[05:36] <Rictoo> guys
[05:36] <SeveredCross> Alex__: What's the size of the disk, how many partitions are you creating, are any being moved, etc?
[05:36] <Rictoo> where is xorg,conf again?
[05:36] <arentoine> RoTTeNSeeD : you will need to edit the xorg.conf to get your 9550 to work. after the install.  Not a big deal.
[05:36] <chowmeined> how do I set my default input method?
[05:36] <chesney> Out of curiosity folks, is there a decent way to deploy a lamp server on a currently installed Ubuntu desktop? (I'm on a bandwidth impaired line, so downloading the entire ubuntu server is out of the question.)
[05:36] <arrenlex> Rictoo: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:36] <Rictoo> wthanks
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> !lamp | chesney
[05:36] <ubotu> chesney: 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+)
[05:36] <FearMoth> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11940/   .. I'm trying to install liblame-dev, but I'm getting the error Couldn't find package liblame-dev ... what do I need to add to my sources.list to be able to download this package in edgy?
[05:36] <Rictoo> arren1ex,
[05:36] <durkaji> ok i downloaded the ubuntu installer cd multiple times and each time it has been unable to read the cd after the ubuntu cd splashscreen comes up, it just gives me a warning
[05:36] <wolfspiri1> nexus: personal preference
[05:36] <Rictoo> I added the higher res, but it only goes to 60hz
[05:36] <arrenlex> Rictoo,
[05:36] <Rictoo> -.-
[05:36] <vox754> matthew1429, from what I see I assume you got a new harddrive to which you installed Ubuntu with the default partitioning hda, and you also have a second hard drive hdb, which you use to store. But what did you do with the CD/DVD drive? did you changed it since the installation?
[05:36] <bulmer> chesney get the alternate cdrom
[05:37] <arrenlex> Rictoo: What card?
[05:37] <SeveredCross> FearMoth: Try Universe and Multiverse
[05:37] <Rictoo> I tried on windows,. it goes up to 85 hz
[05:37] <chowmeined> how do I set the default input method to scim?
[05:37] <Rictoo> Ill try another driver =/
[05:37] <FearMoth> SeveredCross: I think I have those both enabled though .. ?
[05:37] <SeveredCross> What card Rictoo?
[05:37] <Rictoo> Radeon 9i200
[05:37] <Rictoo> 9200*
[05:37] <durkaji> ok i downloaded the ubuntu installer cd multiple times and each time it has been unable to read the cd after the ubuntu cd splashscreen comes up, it just gives me a warning
[05:37] <arren1ex> Rictoo: Oh. Never needed to configure refresh rate, sorry.
[05:37] <Rictoo> well how do I change the driver the card uses?
[05:37] <arren1ex> Rictoo: in xorg.conf
[05:37] <Rictoo> like if I wanna use fglrx?
[05:37] <SeveredCross> FearMoth: Double check, run gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:37] <Rictoo> ok
[05:37] <arren1ex> Rictoo: Need to install fglrx first.
[05:38] <SeveredCross> Rictoo: If you want to use fglrx, you first need to install it.
[05:38] <arren1ex> !fglrx | Rictoo
[05:38] <ubotu> Rictoo: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:38] <Rictoo> ok
[05:38] <Alex__> SeveredCross: i hae a 300gb drive with 50gb in use already
[05:38] <matthew1429> vox754: I had 2 cdroms that were working... THey were borrowed.  One was a dvd, one was a cdr... I disconnected them, deleted their fstab entries, and tried to install the dvdrom
[05:38] <emry1> Alright, I have a bit of a problem... I had managed to corrupt a Windows install a while back, and I had also bought a brand new HDD. I decided to move what I needed off of my old HDD and format it to install Ubuntu on it. Problem is, I can't boot into Windows no matter what I try. :(
[05:38] <matthew1429> thats when boot time was crazy
[05:38] <SeveredCross> Alex__: If partitions are being moved, data has to be copied and partitioning will be slow.
[05:38] <infidel> what's the channel for off topic?
[05:38] <SeveredCross> matthew1429: Well, the long boot might have been detecting the DVD drive and loading drivers.
[05:38] <arrenlex> infidel: #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:38] <Alex__> SeveredCross: two hours slow?
[05:38] <SeveredCross> As for why it doesn't appear anywhere, that's because it's not in /etc/fstab
[05:38] <emry1> Oh, also. I have a non-corrupt Windows install on the new one.
[05:38] <matthew1429> yeah, but would it do that 2 boots in a row?
[05:38] <SeveredCross> Alex__: Okay, that's a bit excessive. Hmm. Donno then.
[05:39] <SeveredCross> Err, it shouldn't.
[05:39] <infidel> arren1ex, thanks
[05:39] <FearMoth> SeveredCross: what lines do I need to add to enable multiverse? I only see universe, backports, etc
[05:39] <arrenlex> infidel: yw
[05:39] <durkaji> ok i downloaded the ubuntu installer cd multiple times and each time it has been unable to read the cd after the ubuntu cd splashscreen comes up, it just gives me a warning
[05:39] <SeveredCross> FearMoth: Copy the lines for Universe, and replace Universe with Multiverse
[05:39] <matthew1429> I'm not worried about a long boot if it detects it finally
[05:39] <SeveredCross> durkaji: Try burning the CD at a slower speed.
[05:39] <matthew1429> I keep the computer turned on so boot time is not an issue
[05:39] <Alex__> SeveredCross: its strange, is is possible the live disc partioiner could of hung up?
[05:39] <matthew1429> just mentioning it for troubleshooting purposes
[05:39] <FearMoth> thanks SeveredCross
[05:39] <SeveredCross> matthew1429: Can you check what drives you find in /dev?
[05:39] <Pollywog> why are + or - signs appearing at the start of each line?
[05:39] <durkaji> should i get 6.10
[05:39] <Pollywog> in the channel
[05:40] <SeveredCross> I don't remember how the CD-Rom's get named, they may just be /dev/cdrom
[05:40] <matthew1429> I find /hda and /hdb
[05:40] <matthew1429> if you checked my pastebin
[05:40] <SeveredCross> Yes, I saw what's in fdisk -l and fstab.
[05:40] <matthew1429> the dmesg "sees" 2 hdc's
[05:40] <matthew1429> okay
[05:40] <SeveredCross> The dmesg wasn't there. :)
[05:40] <durkaji> should i get 6.10 or 6.6
[05:40] <matthew1429> oh
[05:40] <matthew1429> hehe
[05:40] <matthew1429> brb
[05:40] <matthew1429> sorry
[05:40] <SeveredCross> And a CD/DVD drive doesn't appear as /hdx
[05:40] <youkilldkennedy> What is a Linux program that's like Microsoft Publisher
[05:40] <SeveredCross> Those are only hard drives.
[05:40] <youkilldkennedy> ?
[05:41] <SeveredCross> CD/DVD drives appear as /dev/cdrom I believe
[05:41] <matthew1429> ill post the dmesg
[05:41] <matthew1429> it posts them as hdc : /
[05:41] <irida> SeveredCross: cd typically appears as /dev/hdc
[05:41] <Alex__> SeveredCross: guess i should quit?
[05:41] <SeveredCross> Really?
[05:41] <SeveredCross> I've never seen that.
[05:41] <irida> SeveredCross: Yes, really. What is it for you?
[05:41] <SeveredCross> Alex__: I would try it again, two hours is excessive, the partitioner may have hung.
[05:41] <Alex__> SeveredCross: ok thanks
[05:41] <mbdl> hello i have a external NTFS hard drive and it wont mount b/c terminal states that theres somehting wrong please check pastebin for more details: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11942/
[05:41] <SeveredCross> I'm currently not on Ubuntu (HDD failure, waiting to replace it, so I am on XP), but I could have sworn it was /dev/cdrom
[05:41] <shatrat> irida, but /dev/cdrom or /dev/cdrom0 is linked to /dev/hdc
[05:42] <vox754> matthew1429, if I recall, the /etc/fstab file is not updated automatically because it is the job of the system administrator to manage the partitions. So you need to add the line, I guess.
[05:42] <SeveredCross> Ah, that's what it is.
[05:42] <irida> shatrat: Yes, that's correct.
[05:42] <Alex__> SeveredCross: any better way to partition?
[05:42] <SeveredCross> I never bothered to check if /dev/cdrom is a symlink or not.
[05:42] <Rictoo> guys, the binary fglrx doesn't support 3d? ;S
[05:42] <irida> Rictoo: What? Of course it does. That's what it's for.
[05:42] <SeveredCross> Rictoo: Sure it does.
[05:42] <Rictoo> ok
[05:42] <Rictoo> =/
[05:42] <youkilldkennedy> What is a Linux program that's like Microsoft Publisher
[05:42] <vox754> SeveredCross, yes they appear as /dev/hd*
[05:42] <SeveredCross> Alex__: I dunno, I generally use Gparted.
[05:42] <matthew1429> I added the dmesg SeveredCross
[05:42] <SeveredCross> Ah, well.
[05:42] <SeveredCross> Okay matthew1429, I'll look.
[05:42] <irida> SeveredCross: em@sam:~$ file /dev/cdrom
[05:42] <irida> /dev/cdrom: symbolic link to `hdc'
[05:42] <Alex__> SeveredCross: i had creatted a virtual K;\ with a 3rd party windows program, how would i install on that?
[05:42] <shatrat> Rictoo, it supports openGL, but on a scale of 1-10 its a null pointer exception error as far as quality goes.
[05:43] <Rictoo> ok, so just apt-get install fglrx and then 	Driver		"fglrx"
[05:43] <Rictoo> ?
[05:43] <bulmer> youkilldkennedy: what does a Publisher do btw?
[05:43] <Pollywog> youkilldkennedy: it's not that we are ignoring you, I think we just do not know
[05:43] <irida> Rictoo: The magical guide answers all.
[05:43] <irida> !fglrx | Rictoo
[05:43] <SeveredCross> To be totally honest, that probably won't work.
[05:43] <ubotu> Rictoo: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:43] <mbdl> please check my pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11942/
[05:43] <shatrat> Rictoo, hopefully, you might have to add an entry to your xorg.conf disabling composite as well
[05:43] <Rictoo> xD
[05:43] <Rictoo> ok =p
[05:43] <SeveredCross> bulmer: Desktop publishing
[05:43] <youkilldkennedy> Pollywog: Just checking incase someone new came in ;)
[05:43] <SeveredCross> Well, matthew1429, if you see /dev/hdc and that's a CD-Rom drive, try adding its line into /etc/fstab
[05:43] <youkilldkennedy> Bulmer: It's for creating things like brochures.
[05:44] <bulmer> SeveredCross: what does it really do? in simple terms
[05:44] <matthew1429> I don't see a hdc in /dev
[05:44] <SeveredCross> Creating brochuers, etc.
[05:44] <matthew1429> just when i do the dmesg
[05:44] <matthew1429> isn't that weird?
[05:44] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[05:44] <SeveredCross> Yes.
[05:44] <SeveredCross> BTW, dmesg output still isn't showing up in the paste..
[05:44] <irida> matthew1429: What's the output of "dmesg | grep hdc"?
[05:44] <Rictoo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto states that it doesn't support the 9200, however http://www.stanchina.net/~flavio/debian/fglrx-supported.txt says it does
[05:44] <SeveredCross> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11934/ righht?
[05:44] <FearMoth> can anyone recommend a faster repository than ca.archive.ubuntu.com? it's only transfering at 12kbps for me..
[05:45] <bulmer> youkilldkennedy: you can use tools like your openoffice for words and embed graphics from Gimp
[05:45] <SeveredCross> FearMoth: Try the US one?
[05:45] <nikhil_> So I'm trying to install a gaim-latex plugin, but it brings up a weird error message (I can't determine whether I'm missing any dependencies, or even which to install)
[05:45] <Pollywog> FearMoth: are you in Canada?
[05:45] <bulmer> one heck of a publishing tools
[05:45] <FearMoth> Pollywog: yes
[05:45] <nikhil_> Would it be alright if I were to post the error log here? (it's long)
[05:45] <SeveredCross> There's a distinct publishing software though, I just ca't remember what it is.
[05:45] <mbdl> PLEASE HELP i dont have much time on my compter and i need my work PLS check my pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11942/
[05:45] <SeveredCross> nikhil_: How are you installing?
[05:45] <nexus> ubuntu the worst distro ..just kidding bye
[05:45] <matthew1429> yeah, severed
[05:45] <matthew1429> sorry
[05:45] <matthew1429> it's pasted now
[05:45] <j0sh0> hi gys, if I want to use ndiswrapper for my wireless card, where can i find the .inf file for the driver if the driver cd only has cabs and an installer?
[05:45] <irida> Rictoo: You seem to be right. https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_8.34.8.html <-- only goes down to 9500
[05:46] <SeveredCross> mbdl, just do what the error tells you.
[05:46] <nikhil_> Severed: Downloading the gzipped archive, and compiling
[05:46] <SeveredCross> Run ntfsfix
[05:46] <irida> j0sh0: Extract it from the cab (that's an archive) using the cabextract command.
[05:46] <SeveredCross> Or mount it read only and then you can read your work off of it.
[05:46] <SeveredCross> nikhil: Not available via apt-get?
[05:46] <mbdl> SeveredCross: tryed and it says it cant find the command
[05:46] <j0sh0> irida: thru cmd.exe?
[05:46] <irida> j0sh0: ....no. In ubuntu.
[05:46] <nikhil_> Severed: Nope, I tried an apt-cache search and it's not there
[05:46] <SeveredCross> mbdl: Tried changing your fstab to mount read only?
[05:46] <Rictoo> irida, http://www.mepis.org/docs/en/index.php/ATI_supported_cards
[05:46] <SeveredCross> nikhil: Multiverse and Universe enabled?
[05:46] <SeveredCross> (Backports too even)
[05:47] <j0sh0> irida: oh thanks. it comes installed with ubuntu?
[05:47] <nikhil_> Severed: Yes, everything
[05:47] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[05:47] <SeveredCross> Paste the error log into a pastebin
[05:47] <Rictoo> so how would I get specifically fglrc 9.28?
[05:47] <SeveredCross> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[05:47] <mbdl> SeveredCross: if i wanted to do ntfsfic i would write...sudo mount  -a force right?
[05:47] <Rictoo> fglrx*
[05:47] <irida> Rictoo: Notice that your card is for the "previously supported in 8.28" section.
[05:47] <Rictoo> so how would I get specifically fglrx 9.28?
[05:47] <Rictoo> 8*
[05:47] <Rictoo> crap I cant type on ,my patined keyboard -.-'
[05:47] <nrdb> I am using a ubuntu CD at a friends place, can you get a dialup connection to actually dial using the a GUI ? I setup the phone number in System->Administion->Networking  but I can't seem to dial from this.
[05:47] <Rictoo> painted*
[05:47] <matthew1429> would there be a disadvantage to installing feisty beta if I'm impatient?  wouldn't it just update when it's officially released?
[05:48] <SeveredCross> mbdl: You should probably edit your /etc/fstab and check the line for that hard drive.
[05:48] <irida> j0sh0: I don't know. If it doesn't all you have to do is install the cabextract passage (no dependencies iirc)
[05:48] <mbdl> SeveredCross: if i wanted to do ntfsfix i would write...sudo mount  -a ntfsfix right? ***
[05:48] <Rictoo> so how would I get specifically fglrx 8.28?
[05:48] <SeveredCross> mbdl, not at all.
[05:48] <mbdl> ok
[05:48] <SeveredCross> ntfsfix is a separate utility
[05:48] <mbdl> SeveredCross: how do i get and use it
[05:48] <SeveredCross> Try sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda6
[05:48] <nikhil_> Severed: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11946/
[05:48] <j0sh0> irida: cheers!!!
[05:48] <SeveredCross> *Try sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda5

[05:53] <SeveredCross> Something looks VERY borked..
[05:53] <SeveredCross> 87x CD-ROM drive.
[05:53] <nikhil_> Alex__: Yeah, in the installer itself, you can select "manually partition", and it should bring up a bunch of blank spaces
[05:53] <fmarquez> where  is the DHCP config files?
[05:53] <SeveredCross> And garbage for the manfuacturer name on the first line.
[05:53] <doofus> my res dont save to X conf :(
[05:53] <irida> rg535748: What happens if you sudo modprobe -v nvidia
[05:54] <matthew1429> yeah, some folks have said that too
[05:54] <tiky> #kubuntu-es
[05:54] <nikhil_> Alex__: You should be able to set which folders each partition (ie /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, etc) mounts to
[05:54] <SeveredCross> Hmm....I don't know matthew1429.
[05:54] <doofus> 87x cd-rom wtf!
[05:54] <SeveredCross> The garbage there confuses me.
[05:54] <yurimxpxman> do you guys know of an open programming channel? I can't find any good ones.. #c requires an invite
[05:54] <Alex__> nikhil_: i am manually partitioning and to the mountpoints/size/partition table
[05:54] <irida> doofus: LOL, don't CDs explode at ~60?
[05:54] <doofus> dude get ebooks :)

[05:55] <andre_pl> i haveno shutdown or suspend options in my gnome system menu. the only option is quit and it goes right to gdm. this has been bugging me for months.. has anyone else seen it?
[05:55] <durkaji> if i have a core 2 duo do i get amd64 version?
[05:55] <SeveredCross> Tried unplugging the drive and booting?
[05:55] <doofus> who wants the eboks pm me
[05:55] <doofus> ebooks
[05:55] <durkaji> if i have a core 2 duo do i get amd64 version?
[05:55] <SeveredCross> durkaji: Nope.
[05:56] <irida> durkaji: Not unless you want 64-bits. (you don't)
[05:56] <SeveredCross> You get the x86 version.
[05:56] <matthew1429> the willingness to even try is much appreciated
[05:56] <matthew1429> seriously
[05:56] <SeveredCross> Core 2 Duo isn't 64-bit, heh.
[05:56] <matthew1429> much appreciated
[05:56] <irida> SeveredCross: Sure is.
[05:56] <doofus> duo sux
[05:56] <doofus> :P
[05:56] <SeveredCross> Though, does anyone know if the standard kernel image that ships by default is SMP or not?
[05:56] <SeveredCross> Oh haha, durr they are.
[05:56] <doofus> amd ftw
[05:56] <puff> Evening... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11947/
[05:56] <irida> SeveredCross: Yep, it does.
[05:56] <SeveredCross> Pfft.
[05:56] <Arrick> hey, does ubuntu 6.10 with apache support Frontpage Extensions?
[05:56] <SeveredCross> Core 2 Duo will spank any CPU out there right now.
[05:56] <durkaji> are you sure i just get x86?
[05:56] <doofus> amd > intel
[05:56] <rg535748> arrenlex:  I can't keep up with the scroll here. Can I talk to you someplace else?
[05:56] <fmarquez> my system it can't take the ip adress dynamic. i need change to static ip.
[05:56] <SeveredCross> durkaji: Yes.
[05:56] <puff> I'm trying to install feisty 7.0.4 beta 1 because I need kernel 2.6.20-12 for this motherboard.  I'm getting this odd error.

[05:56] <doofus> no way
[05:56] <Kefas_> Hello, could anyone help a fresh Ubuntu user?
[05:56] <SeveredCross> The AMD64 is not that great.
[05:56] <Arrick> doofus AMD spanks intel
[05:56] <doofus> wait for amd quads
[05:57] <doofus> yes Arrick
[05:57] <Alex_001> hey guys!, I have a question
[05:57] <doofus> it does
[05:57] <doofus> :)
[05:57] <SeveredCross> AMD is ages behind at the moment.
[05:57] <doofus> bah
[05:57] <doofus> sif
[05:57] <SeveredCross> Alex_001?
[05:57] <Kefas_> I am having problems with my graphics card and have
[05:57] <doofus> AMD is releasein Quad core
[05:57] <puff> Alex_001, Kefas_:  Don't ask to ask, just ask.
[05:57] <SeveredCross> Kefas_: Just ask, someone will get to you eventually.
[05:57] <Arrick> SeveredCross yeah, if you call being the top processor being behind, uhmmmmmmm........
[05:57] <Kefas_> no idea how to install the driver (having read the FAQ)
[05:57] <Kefas_> Ok.
[05:57] <fmarquez> hi man. help me i need to do my work.
[05:57] <Alex_001> how long does it take to ship ubuntu here in the Philippines?
[05:57] <Kefas_> So - I have an integrated Unichrome IGP
[05:57] <doofus> amd Quad will make intel cry
[05:57] <Alex__> SeveredCross: i am manually doing the partitions to a logical drive, what mount points do i need (i am new to this)
[05:57] <Kefas_> Right now I have vesa driver
[05:57] <SeveredCross> Arrick: Which AMD processor is this that beats the newest Core 2 Duo's?
[05:57] <Arrick> longer than 6 weeks alenax
[05:58] <Arrick> Alex__ ^
[05:58] <Rictoo> The latest version of the ATI Proprietary Linux driver is designed to support the following Linux distributions:
[05:58] <Rictoo>     * Red Hat Enterprise Linux suite
[05:58] <Rictoo>     * Novell/SuSE product suite
[05:58] <Kefas_> I would like to change it to a proper driver
[05:58] <Rictoo> It works on ubuntu too, right?
[05:58] <SeveredCross> Alex__: In practice, only / and swap.
[05:58] <Arrick> uhmm, how about the AMD Core 2 Duo SeveredCross ?
[05:58] <doofus> who wants the Ebooks?
[05:58] <SeveredCross> Though you can make many.
[05:58] <Kefas_> But have no idea - how?
[05:58] <doofus> PM me
[05:58] <SeveredCross> Rictoo: Yes.
[05:58] <beg1689> Core 2 Duo? what about EXtreme?
[05:58] <SeveredCross> What AMD Core 2 Duo is this?
[05:58] <Rictoo> ok
[05:58] <Arrick> crimeny know you stuff before yapping
[05:58] <SeveredCross> Core 2 Duo is an Intel trademark, AMD coudln't use it.
[05:58] <SeveredCross> Link please
[05:59] <beg1689> Link what?
[05:59] <Alex_001> i've checked at ubuntu.com and says it already forwarede my request on February 27 and yet I still don't have it
[05:59] <Alex__> SeveredCross: in practice? they can both be on the same partition right?
[05:59] <SeveredCross> Alex__, swap has to be a separate partition.
[05:59] <SeveredCross> Link to this fantastic AMD Core 2 Duo
[05:59] <quaal> why is my clock going off sync again
[05:59] <durkaji> why do i have to use x86 for core 2 duo
[05:59] <SeveredCross> All the reviews I see of the Intel Core 2 Duos say they smoke everything AMD.
[05:59] <quaal> it says 11:08 now, when its supposed to be 12
[05:59] <quaal> its synced to like 3 servers
[05:59] <SeveredCross> durkaji: Because the AMD64 version while it works, it's not very well supported.
[05:59] <quaal> i dont get it
[06:00] <durkaji> oh ok
[06:00] <doofus> Got AM2 dual core! 5200+
[06:00] <doofus> haha
[06:00] <durkaji> so the core 2 duo is 64 bit but im just using a 32 bit out of convenience?
[06:00] <doofus> 2.6ghz per core
[06:00] <Alex_001> do they really send it?
[06:00] <Alex__> SeveredCross: how big should the swap partition be?
[06:00] <syberdave> SeveredCross: not well supported, as in there aren't as many binaries in the respitory for it?
[06:01] <irida> durkaji: You don't want 64-bit because flash and binary codecs don't work without chroots and confusing things.
[06:01] <doofus> OK WHO WANTS EBOOK FOR C+ AND C++
[06:01] <SeveredCross> ^^
[06:01] <doofus> ?
[06:01] <SeveredCross> What irida said.
[06:01] <durkaji> well
[06:01] <SeveredCross> Alex__: Double your RAM/
[06:01] <durkaji> i can use chroot
[06:01] <SeveredCross> ?
[06:01] <irida> durkaji: Why do you want 64-bit?
[06:01] <dark_light> If I burn a ISO CD Image of ubuntu edgy in a DVD, it will boot and works?
[06:01] <durkaji> i dont
[06:01] <SeveredCross> Though I suppose not really more than a GB even if double your RAM is more than 1 GB.
[06:01] <doofus> im a linux noob but i love it
[06:01] <irida> durkaji: Well then use 32bit. xD
[06:01] <durkaji> irida: 64 bit isnt much faster, right?
[06:02] <doofus> be good if it could play all pc games then i would fully convert
[06:02] <irida> durkaji: It's not at all faster. It just allows you to address more memory.
[06:02] <dark_light> I am having this problem because a friend is trying to burn the ISO in a CD-R, but the cd recorder is saying the CD-R has no space for the image
[06:02] <Alex__> SeveredCross: and root should be however much spaced i am willing to spend?
[06:02] <dark_light> o.o
[06:02] <irida> durkaji: If you have < 4GB then there are exactly no benefits.
[06:02] <doofus> get better buring app
[06:02] <doofus> :)
[06:02] <durkaji> haha cool

[06:04] <CBDM> hey guys
[06:04] <dark_light> doofus, but, what about recording in a DVD? it would not work?
[06:04] <CBDM> does ubuntu with apache support frontpage extensions?
[06:04] <dark_light> and, version 6.0.0.15
[06:04] <SeveredCross> Re AMD vs. Intel, benchmarks say Intel Core 2 Duo still spanks AMD. :)
[06:04] <doofus> what image u have?
[06:05] <dark_light> doofus, ubuntu edgy desktop 32bits
[06:05] <doofus> duo sucks
[06:05] <Alex__> SeveredCross: how can i make a new partition?
[06:05] <SeveredCross> Everywhere except for memory reads, because RAM ran slightly faster on the board they were using for testing.
[06:05] <doofus> no man u dont a dvd for that!
[06:05] <SeveredCross> Alex__: Use GParted.
[06:05] <doofus> just a cd
[06:05] <doofus> what version nero?
[06:05] <irida> SeveredCross, doofus: root@intel~:# chown intel:intel /home/AMD/mom <-- that's what intel did.
[06:05] <doofus> plz
[06:05] <dark_light> doofus, i know. but nero is saying the 700mb cd can't hold 698mb
[06:06] <dark_light> doofus, version 6.0.0.15
[06:06] <SeveredCross> Hey, I'm rooting for Intel right now. :)
[06:06] <Alex__> SeveredCross: embarassing asking this, but where would i access gparted (says i have it installed)
[06:06] <doofus> screw intel overpriced and sux just like winblows
[06:06] <RegalEagle> Is there anyway to use an S-Video output in Ubuntu?
[06:06] <beg1689> whatever one puts a quad core in my laptop, thats the one i vote for
[06:06] <doofus> dude upgrade!
[06:06] <doofus> there is v7!
[06:06] <jair> guys I have a r51 IBM laptop with an Intel AC '97 sound card pci, when the ubuntu system boots I can hear the drum the sound but once I log in the web sites with sound like youtube does not playback anymore :( any idea?
[06:06] <doofus> get it!
[06:06] <doofus> and nero wont complain
[06:07] <doofus> ur version is most likly bugged
[06:07] <doofus> as with all winblows software
[06:07] <sonicjosh> im stuck, its hanging on the partition part of 6.10
[06:07] <SeveredCross> Alex__: System --> Administration on your top Gnome menubar.
[06:07] <pike_> jair: you get sound playing mp3s and such? is it just no sound using flash plugin in browser?
[06:07] <SeveredCross> RegalEagle: You need the binary drivers for your card most likely.
[06:08] <dark_light> doofus, ... the problem is: it isn't me that is trying to burn the CD. I don't know if the person would upgrade just to do it
[06:08] <Alex__> SeveredCross: i was looking for the wrong name
[06:08] <RegalEagle> SeveredCross: It's an ATI Rage Fury Pro 2x
[06:08] <dark_light> and, my original question remains open: DVD *could* boot from an ISO image?
[06:09] <jair> pike_: I will check
[06:09] <doofus> hmmm
[06:09] <doofus> check msg
[06:09] <doofus> window dark
[06:09] <beg1689> DVDs function just like CDs, they are just bigger
[06:09] <bmillham> Hi all, I'm new here. I just installed GSAMBAD and smb4k. One of those 2 corrupted my sudoers file, so I can no longer run root commands. Any ideas on how to fix this!
[06:09] <Alex__> SeveredCross: why is it not letting me make a new partition?
[06:09] <jair> pike_: I actually get an error
[06:10] <SeveredCross> Alex__: Hmm...Don't know.
[06:10] <SeveredCross> Any errors spit out by GParted?
[06:10] <sonicjosh> its hanging  after i click next after saying resize partition
[06:10] <jair> pike_: I think that this problem happen since I upgrade from kernel 386 to 686 because I am using centrino processor, that is why I did the change.
[06:10] <doofus> Dark
[06:10] <pike_> bmillham: boot in recovery mode and edit the file i guess.  maybe do a passwd root to enable root pass until you figure it out
[06:10] <doofus> check ur PM
[06:10] <doofus> mate
[06:10] <Alex__> SeveredCross: nope, none.

[06:14] <bradley> how do I regiter a nick?
[06:14] <pike_> Alex__: you cant resize your root paritition if your currently booted into it.  id either use the ubuntu livecd or gparted has its own livecd
[06:14] <tonyyarusso> doofus: Right.  And one completely inappropriate for that context.  That will be all now.

[06:16] <Alex__> pike_: havent tried resizing, should I? (forgot the _ in your name last time)
[06:16] <pike_> Alex__: if you have unpartitioned freespace you can just create a partition but if its just one big hda1 for the whole hd you need to resize
[06:16] <jair> pike_: I am on the system already, but I was trying to find a hint on google but nothing yet
[06:17] <bradley> login to what?
[06:17] <puff> Speaking of partitioning..
[06:17] <doofus> best peice of FREE dvd/cd burning software that winblows has seen
[06:17] <sonicjosh> gparted says ive used alot more than i actually hav, why
[06:17] <puff> We have two 300GB drives, had planned to use RAID mirroring.
[06:17] <doofus> and i said if you can get it .. because they banned it!
[06:17] <doofus> :*
[06:17] <doofus> :(
[06:17] <puff> But it turns out the on-motherboard RAID isn't supported in lniux yet, sigh.
[06:18] <doofus> so sata dont work under linux?
[06:18] <Alex__> pike_: ahh, got it
[06:18] <doofus> raid = sata?
[06:18] <jair> pike_: this is the link I found http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Intel&card=ICH+southbridge+AC97+audio.&chip=440MX%2C+i810%2C+i810E%2C+i820%2C+ICH4%2C+ICH5%2C+ICH6&module=intel8x0

[06:19] <CBDM> 6.06.1 server definately doesnt
[06:19] <matthew1429> SeveredCross: hey guess what worked
[06:19] <durkaji> what should i use if i have a core 2 duo
[06:19] <jair> pike_: I will check that
[06:19] <doofus> due sux
[06:19] <doofus> duo sux
[06:20] <puff> I'm setting up a server;  figuring that a boot partition, a swap partition the same size as my memory (2 GB), and then a root partition, a home partition, and a separate partition for web stuff.

[06:20] <matthew1429> you suggested that I remove it and boot and replug it in
[06:20] <doofus> sorry
[06:20] <doofus> :)
[06:20] <matthew1429> success!

[06:20] <doofus> buy AMD
[06:20] <doofus> sorry
[06:20] <Alex__> pike_; what else would i ineed a partition for besides root and swap?
[06:20] <blanky> uh...

[06:21] <jair> pike_: nope, I get this error-> -su: /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy

[06:22] <doofus> sorry supercross im not a Geek
[06:22] <doofus> :P
[06:22] <pike_> Alex__: thats it i guess.  i normally make /home a seperate partition so that i can carry over all my configs and stuff if i have to reinstall.  but the way you have now is standard for ubuntu
[06:22] <jair> pike_: check this---> http://rafb.net/p/2G6Ch661.html
[06:22] <Supercross> i'm not either....but my ubuntu is borked and I just installed it and it wont work
[06:22] <bmillham> Thanks pike_. My sudoers problem is fixed! (Now I need to figure out what caused it)
[06:22] <ceeg> is doc.gwos.org down for anyone else?
[06:23] <jair> pike_: that is the information of my sound card
[06:23] <puff> pike_:  I'm not too worried about speed, mostly worried about mantainability;  I figure a separate home partition so I can back it up easily;  a separtae web partition for the same reason, since there're some pretty hefty websites being move onto this box.
[06:23] <doofus> hay can xchat have nick completion?
[06:23] <Talaman> hello
[06:23] <Talaman> sure
[06:23] <ceeg> doofus: tab key
[06:23] <jair> pike_: so it looks like the kernel can see it, but not use it properly
[06:23] <doofus> thats not true nick completion
[06:23] <doofus> :P
[06:23] <Talaman> works for me
[06:23] <puff> What're people's feelings about LVM?
[06:24] <doofus> im an irc junkie from way back :P
[06:24] <doofus> and did some scripting
[06:24] <puff> I'm looking at it and I'm thinking I probably don't really need the complication.
[06:24] <Talaman> xchat is the bomb
[06:24] <phasegen> Can anyone help?  All my filesharing programs quit working.  They won't open at all.
[06:24] <Talaman> love it
[06:24] <puff> phasegen: Did you check the log files?
[06:24] <doofus> Xchat is all Linux has?!!!?!
[06:24] <doofus> or best it has?
[06:24] <phasegen> how?
[06:24] <puff> doofus: Not at all.
[06:24] <Alex__> pike_: when i have a logical set up to / how come it is saying "No root File"
[06:24] <Talaman> hey, i got n issue...my screensavers aren't working right
[06:24] <puff> doofus: Not that either :-).
[06:24] <puff> doofus: Ever heard of emacs?
[06:24] <pike_> jair: why did you choose not to use generic kernel again?
[06:24] <Supercross> if memtest will never complete is it pretty definite my ram is screwed?
[06:24] <doofus> well .. what is like mirc?
[06:25] <doofus> coz i would rather a mirc interface
[06:25] <puff> phasegen: Typically applications log to /var/log/whatever.  For example, apache webserver logs ot /var/log/apache/error and /var/log/apache/access.
[06:25] <Talaman> they work when i do the test...wbut when they are actually supposed to kick in, the display a black screen with a big white X
[06:25] <mon^rch> hey... is there a gui app that makes web pages for linux...kinda like forntpage?
[06:25] <knicknic> doofus just install mirc with wine
[06:25] <puff> phasegen: Go look and see if your filesharing programs have any obvious logs there.
[06:25] <doofus> can someone write a eggy cfg for me :)
[06:25] <doofus> wine Pah!
[06:25] <doofus> ever works for me
[06:25] <jair> pike_: I choose the Linux ubuntur51 2.6.15-28-686 instead the 2.6.15-28-386 because I am using a pentium Centrino
[06:25] <doofus> never*
[06:25] <Talaman> xchat isn't all linux has...but it's far better than Mirc
[06:25] <puff> phasegen: If so, look at them.  If not, then you may have to hunt in the other logs.
[06:26] <jair> pike_: that is all I did upgrade the kernel
[06:26] <doofus> u reckon
[06:26] <doofus> ?
[06:26] <doofus> cani add scripts ? or downlaod full scripts?
[06:26] <mzanfardino> I have created an ISO file from the command line and would like to burn it to a disc from the command line.  Is there a simple proceedure to do this?
[06:26] <mon^rch> is there a web page builder for linux (gui)?
[06:26] <doofus> get GnomeBaker screw cmd line
[06:26] <doofus> :)
[06:26] <phasegen> puff: nothing there
[06:26] <doofus> yea Mon is there let me know if there is

[06:27] <knicknic> crdlb it is too a wysiwyg editor
[06:27] <jair> pike_: is ok. Thank you
[06:27] <Talaman> there are some basic xchat scripts out there in python, perl, or tel(?)
[06:27] <puff> phasegen: Okay, so do ls -l /var/log, and look at the file modification dates, then try to start it again and then do ls -l /var/log again and see what changed the modification date.
[06:28] <pike_> jair: generic should have smp support though i dont think there is a speed increase really for custom kernel
[06:28] <Alex__> pike_: what would i format te partition to for a / file system
[06:28] <crdlb> knicknic, ?
[06:28] <Talaman> i wrote some basic ones for what i like, and downloaded one or two others that i later edited

[06:34] <qrstuvwxwz>       Sounds interesting. I have attended Dr. Leggett talks in the past and were pretty thought provoking. Here is a summary of a lecture he gave at University of Otago: http://science_boy.blogspot.com/2005/08/schroedingers-squid-filling-quantum.html

[06:35] <xprimarysuspectx> hey guys. I was wondering if anyone knew of a workaround for xi-fi cards in ubuntu?

[06:35] <Mez> !flood | WinXpPro
[06:35] <ubotu> WinXpPro: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:35] <WinXpPro> wtf is a xi-fi card
[06:35] <WinXpPro> Mez

[06:35] <ubotu> da-vinci: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:35] <puff> phasegen: If you're not starting from the command-line, try starting it from the command-line and see if itg ives you error messages there.
[06:36] <Mez> WinXpPro, I saw you repeat the same line in a couple of lines
[06:36] <WinXpPro> 2x man
[06:36] <WinXpPro> dont bitch
[06:36] <WinXpPro> if u want a flood
[06:36] <Mez> !ohmy | WinXpPro
[06:36] <ubotu> WinXpPro: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:36] <WinXpPro> ill bring it
[06:36] <kane`> such hostility
[06:36] <pike_> WinXpPro: what config file are you refering to ?
[06:36] <WinXpPro> 2000 +
[06:36] <WinXpPro> bots
[06:36] <xprimarysuspectx> x-fi support is not available from creative at the moment, any hacks/ideas?
[06:36] <regeya> Okeydoke, WinXpPro seems to be hostile, but Mez seems to be egging it on.  Grow up, you two.
[06:36] <da-vinci> why don't ubuntu is sold with packages
[06:36] <WinXpPro> zombies
[06:37] <WinXpPro> regeya, : yes
[06:37] <WinXpPro> i have done nothing
[06:37] <WinXpPro> just repeated 2x
[06:37] <Mez> regeya, I'm not egging anything on, I'm just doing what needs to be done
[06:37] <evolipel> guys -- does anyone know why my wireless card might not be "associating"?
[06:37] <regeya> WinXpPro: so drop it and let's get on with it. :-)
[06:37] <bobo> how bout a ban for winxppro just for being stupid
[06:37] <WinXpPro> thats not a flood
[06:37] <regeya> !hostile
[06:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hostile - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:37] <Mez> WinXpPro, yes, however they were amongst a flood, which is why it was called
[06:37] <regeya> well.
[06:37] <jair> !alsa
[06:37] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[06:37] <WinXpPro> well dont call a flood when i didnt
[06:38] <ott0> dudez HoW do I see my pw hash?
[06:38] <phasegen> puff: it says it's too old...
[06:38] <tonyyarusso> !offtopic
[06:38] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:38] <kane`> sudo stopfightingyouguys
[06:38] <WinXpPro> i can bring one is all i am saying
[06:38] <pike_> evolipel: you can see access points but not obtain an ip?
[06:38] <evolipel> ...guys?
[06:38] <evolipel> yeah basically
[06:38] <WinXpPro> and could bring the channel to a Screeching halt
[06:38] <xprimarysuspectx> wow win, your a scary guy!
[06:38] <Mulder> will feisty be LTS ?
[06:38] <WinXpPro> but i wont
[06:38] <da-vinci> Mez why isn't the ubuntu sold alongwith the full packages
[06:38] <Talaman> screensavers anyone?
[06:38] <evolipel> I have one of those laptops with the little button on the left side to enable it
[06:38] <regeya> bobo: WinXpPro, depsite having a caustic nic, is a human, which is what ubuntu is for.  if y'all are going to start banning "stupid" people, I've been hearing that OpenSUSE is nice.
[06:38] <pike_> Mulder: nope
[06:38] <Squillis> evening
[06:38] <evolipel> and I've done the whole acerhk thing (for acer hotkeys), so it works
[06:38] <evolipel> and I don't think that's the problem
[06:38] <regeya> you are a human, aren't you WinSrev
[06:38] <Squillis> is there an alternative to network-manager that support static ips?
[06:38] <regeya> erm
[06:38] <evolipel> but I'm trying to configure it, but it won't connect
[06:39] <Mulder> pike_, hmm. ok. how long will LTS release cycles be? every 5 years?
[06:39] <puff> phasegen: Can you be more specific?
[06:39] <SeveredCross> Feisty will be LTS as soon as the next version after Feisty comes out?
[06:39] <SeveredCross> No>?
[06:39] <evolipel> and yes, it can scan the various access points and give them correctly
[06:39] <tonyyarusso> SeveredCross: no.
[06:39] <puff> phasegen: Btw, I don't use any of these file sharing app myself, so I'm running out ofs uggestions.
[06:39] <jones> what is the best widget type program?
[06:39] <phasegen> puff:  where can I paste to?
[06:39] <SeveredCross> Aha. I had no idea.
[06:39] <beg1689> widget type program?
[06:40] <SeveredCross> I figured releases usually went to LTS status as soon as the next release came out.
[06:40] <jones> i have seen gdesklets an screenlets but dont know what works best in gnome
[06:40] <Talaman> hello?
[06:40] <SeveredCross> phasegen: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.com
[06:40] <regeya> and we seem to be getting rid of stupid people now...damn, I really don't want to switch distributions, but if ubuntu is going all debian on me, well, I refuse to use debian because the userbase/support/dev team is hostile and juvenile.  guess it's time to research the current linux distro scene.
[06:40] <pike_> evolipel: yeah make sure the switch is on so you can transmit.   what does 'sudo iwconfig eth1 essid whateverAPname; sudo dhclient eth1' say?   where eth1 is whatever your device name is.
[06:41] <xprimarysuspectx> ive looked through the ubntu sound roums a bit, but i specifically need help with a x-fi card. creative isnt supporting linux with this card currently, i would like to know if any info on a hack/workaround/magictrick is available? helps appreciated
[06:41] <xprimarysuspectx> *ubuntu
[06:41] <Talaman> check out linux.org
[06:41] <jair> pike_: and the rest
[06:41] <Talaman> there are a few other distros i was going to look into
[06:42] <jair> my problem was solved :)
[06:42] <nxe`brian> #rails
[06:42] <pike_> jair: what fixed it?
[06:42] <jair> I just choose the alsa to manage my volume
[06:42] <jair> I was using the option of the sound card
[06:42] <pike_> jair: hah :)
[06:42] <Talaman> HELLO, my screensavers seem to be having issues
[06:42] <SeveredCross> BSD FTW! ;)
[06:42] <jair> but it looks like there is a default configuration that just works :)
[06:43] <Alex__> pike_: yay its working and installing, thanks so much for the help
[06:43] <jair> Thank you again family
[06:43] <pike_> Alex__: np its alot to take in but i hope you stick with it ubuntu's a great first distro
[06:43] <nxe`brian> sdfs
[06:44] <Alex__> pike_: now to learn this file structure... hehe
[06:44] <NoSense> hi
[06:44] <xprimarysuspectx> ill post my question again, maybe some help? ive looked through the ubntu sound roums a bit, but i specifically need help with a x-fi card. creative isnt supporting linux with this card currently, i would like to know if any info on a hack/workaround/magictrick is available? helps appreciated
[06:44] <NoSense> i have upgraded to feisty fawn beta and my ps/2 mouse doesn't work
[06:45] <pike_> NoSense: maybe a quick 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' will fix?
[06:45] <NoSense> it worked in all other versions
[06:45] <NoSense> i have tried it
[06:45] <pike_> NoSense: usb?
[06:45] <NoSense> usb works
[06:45] <NoSense> im now with a usb keyboard
[06:45] <SeveredCross> NoSense: Checked your xorg?
[06:46] <NoSense> my ps/2 keyboard doesn't work
[06:46] <xprimarysuspectx> ive looked through the ubuntu sound forums a bit, but i specifically need help with a x-fi card. creative isnt supporting linux with this card currently, i would like to know if any info on a hack/workaround/magictrick is available? helps appreciated? anyone have a resource or something?
[06:46] <NoSense> its like my ps/2 doesn't exist
[06:46] <vexati0n> good idea or bad idea: install project looking glass on feisty fawn
[06:46] <vexati0n> ?
[06:47] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: i dont know about fawn, i installed it on edgy, scary buggy. hosed my system worse than beryl
[06:47] <pepeluis> xdrae cmo lo ejecuto en ubuntu?
[06:47] <tonyyarusso> !es | pepeluis
[06:47] <ubotu> pepeluis: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[06:47] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, i haven't had any problems with beryl at all..
[06:48] <vexati0n> just hoping not to screw my x
[06:48] <pike_> NoSense: might mention that in ubuntu+1 might not be a bug report on it yet
[06:48] <NoSense> so it can be a not reported bug?
[06:48] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: i havent had to many problems with beryl either personally, but tons of people had trouble stopping it from screwing x, thats what looking glass did for me :D'
[06:48] <evolipel> so guys... did anyone else have a problem with their wireless card not "associating"?
[06:48] <CBDM> since the Server 6.06.1 ISOis broken, what is the next best thing to run?
[06:49] <evolipel> (despite numerous configuration attempts and apparently it working for everyone else)
[06:49] <puff> evolipel: What software are you using to control your wireless card?
[06:49] <vexati0n> eh. beryl is prettier than PLG anyway :P
[06:49] <puff> vexati0n: I've really gotta try out uberyl sometime.
[06:49] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: i also know that they used to have a demo of looking glass so that you can play with it, but it doesnt install anything
[06:49] <xprimarysuspectx> if you havent you could always try that out
[06:50] <puff> xprimarysuspectx: Yah, that's what uberyl reportedly is;  an ubuntu live CD but using beryl.
[06:50] <Arko> to bring ra0 up, I have to type some commands. I put then in a file inside /etc/init.d, but it is not working on boot. any help?
[06:50] <Talaman>  anyone?
[06:50] <pike_> NoSense: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=186689 might offer some insight in workaround
[06:50] <xprimarysuspectx> puff:i bet that runs slow as hell :D
[06:50] <puff> Talaman: What issues?
[06:50] <puff> xprimarysuspectx: Why would it?
[06:50] <Talaman> screensavers not working
[06:50] <Talaman> they work in test mode
[06:51] <puff> Talaman: In what sense  not working?
[06:51] <NoSense> pike_, i cannot copy the urle becouse i have not mouse :D
[06:51] <xprimarysuspectx> puff: live cd's have always run slow for me a bit, i couldnt imagine with berly as well
[06:51] <Talaman> no worky in runmode
[06:51] <xprimarysuspectx> beryl
[06:51] <puff> Talaman: Which screen saver?
[06:51] <Talaman> it displays black screen with white X
[06:51] <stutsman> I"m having issues playing mp3s in Ubuntu... its hard to actually ask a specific question because I get different errors. I"ve tried installing all the codecs and stuff and tried several different players. Some won't play a mp3 at all. SOme will freeze, some will do ok until I load a play list, others will do all that and start to play the mp3s but after so long into the first song it crashes. Is there anything I can do?
[06:51] <Talaman> all screensavers
[06:51] <pike_> NoSense: well nothing worth having is ever easy ;p
[06:51] <arch_> how can I get gnome to either set the root background, or allow another program (like qiv or feh) to set the root background? (trying to get conky working properly)
[06:51] <puff> Talaman: Ah, so xscreensaver, then?
[06:52] <Alex__> would you guys suggest beryl or some other similar addon?
[06:52] <puff> Talaman: When you say "no worky",what precisely do you mean?
[06:52] <xprimarysuspectx> where is my FREAKIN! cell phone..seriously, any ideas on x-fi in Ubuntu? anyone!
[06:52] <puff> Alex__: Only for fun.
[06:52] <puff> xprimarysuspectx: 'fraid not.
[06:52] <NoSense> pike_, i have mouse, but its ps/2 and my ps/2 ports seems not to work
[06:52] <xprimarysuspectx> puff: :(
[06:52] <puff> Talaman:  Ah, sorry, missed you black screen comment.
[06:52] <Talaman> it displays black screen with white X
[06:52] <Alex__> puff: i know just for fun hehe, but is that the best of that class of addons?
[06:52] <NoSense> pike_, sorry but i have been trying a lot of things and im a bit nervous :(
[06:52] <xprimarysuspectx> i have a 250 dollar sound card, and i have to revert to onboard with linux :( SAD
[06:53] <puff> stutsman: I had a lot of issues with that, dunno what to tell you.
[06:53] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, next time research your overpriced hardware before you pay for it :P
[06:53] <stutsman> puff: Were you ever able to get anything to work for you?
[06:53] <evolipel> "unassociated" in iwconfig anyone?
[06:53] <evolipel> anyone?
[06:53] <Talaman> it could be xscreensaver...not sure where to check for that
[06:53] <evolipel> Bueller?
[06:53] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n:maybe YOUR in the ceiling! and its not over-priced. Its a great card, in windows!
[06:53] <Talaman> not sure why they work in test mode but not in regular mode
[06:54] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, nothing is great in windows.
[06:54] <vexati0n> ok i'll stop now.
[06:54] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: i hate you
[06:54] <SeveredCross> xprimarysuspectx: The drivers should be available in Q2 2007 from Creative.
[06:54] <SeveredCross> Just deal with it until then.
[06:54] <Talaman> vex, that's not true
[06:54] <lauchazombie> in grub hd0 is equal to hda right?
[06:54] <puff> stutsman: You can feel free to look through my log on darksleep.com/notablog/ubuntujournal.txt and see fi anything in there helps.
[06:54] <Talaman> the price of windows has always been great
[06:54] <Juzzy> I have a zd1201 chipset usb dongle, and it's listed as a supported device on the sf page. I have the zd1201 module installed, the usb wireless dongle attached, but I don't get a wlan0, yet lsusb lists it. Is there something else I have to do to make it recognize it?
[06:54] <xprimarysuspectx> severedcross: yeah, i know this. unfortunately i was looking for some geeky magic
[06:54] <SeveredCross> I agree with vexati0n, you should've researched your overpriced hardware first. ($250 for an audio card is overpriced no matter what, IMO)
[06:55] <stutsman> puff: thank you so much, I will definatly give that a good reading.
[06:55] <puff> Talaman:  Might be that you selected a speific option that can't run properly.
[06:55] <lauchazombie> in grub hd0 is equal to hda right???????
[06:55] <puff> stutsman: It's basically a log of my adventures with ubuntu, mostly for my own reference.
[06:55] <Talaman> in all the screensavers?
[06:55] <tonyyarusso> lauchazombie: yes
[06:55] <kane`> exit
[06:55] <lauchazombie> tonyyarusso,  thanks =D
[06:55] <Alex__> one more noob question, how would i boot off my new ubuntu partition?
[06:55] <evolipel> what does "unassociated" mean in iwconfig before anything else?
[06:55] <vexati0n> considering that like 80% of onboard cards even do 5.1 surround now, i can't see a good reason to spend actual money on a sound card :/
[06:55] <vexati0n> but i'm cheap too
[06:55] <xprimarysuspectx> severedCross: I do tons of audio and midi stuff, mics, guitars, keyboards, reason, it isnt over priced if its well used and has features needed. I could have easily spent 500 for a sound card
[06:55] <stutsman> puff: very nice, I wish I would have thought of that in the beginning.
[06:55] <evolipel> despite the interface being able to scan for the AP's properly?
[06:55] <evolipel> etc?
[06:55] <drofdarb> Hey guys, can firefox (or any browser for that matter) be made to use the gtk theme in the html rather than those ugly widgets they have now? :)
[06:56] <rcmiv> why does denyhosts keep poking 127.0.0.1 into hosts.deny?
[06:56] <xprimarysuspectx> vexation: as stated, its a bit hard doing audio creation and mixing with onboard sound
[06:56] <SeveredCross> drofdarb: Good question...no idea.
[06:56] <xprimarysuspectx> i primarily use windows, so i DID research my "overpriced" card :D i just was hoping it would work magically in linux. I suppose hope has no bounds eh
[06:57] <xprimarysuspectx> that makes me sad too, id much rather use linux for day-day
[06:57] <Talaman> puff:what all controls the screensavers?
[06:57] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, what keeps you from using linux for everyday stuff?
[06:57] <tecywiz121> hey, I need some help stoping the screen from lcoking on user switch
[06:57] <drofdarb> SeveredCross: I remember reading something about it a while ago with cairo, but I'm thinking I perhaps either have the wrong version of cairo or they decided not to go that route or something.
[06:57] <SeveredCross> drofdarb: http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/roc/archives/2006/04/gnome_themes_in_html.html suggests a reason as to why they are not used in Mozilla...
[06:57] <vexati0n> i work in a microsoft certified partner it firm and i hardly ever use windows on purpose.
[06:58] <tecywiz121> anyone?
[06:58] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: nothing i suppose, its just annoying to have to boot into windows to do my audio work, and, i hate having two speaker sets hooked up
[06:58] <Alex__> pike_: how would i boot off the new partition?
[06:58] <xprimarysuspectx> and i am aware of headphones :D
[06:58] <Alex__> SeveredCross: i finally got the ne partition working
[06:58] <tecywiz121> no?
[06:59] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, linux audio studio software not good enough? not a sarcastic question, im looking for solutions in linux too.
[06:59] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: no the software is pretty ok, its onboard sound that isnt ok
[06:59] <|slylyias|> I have good news
[06:59] <arch_> how can I get gnome to either set the root background, or allow another program (like qiv or feh) to set the root background? (trying to get conky working properly)
[06:59] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: horrible latency and the like
[06:59] <drofdarb> SeveredCross, Ah, that makes sense :)
[06:59] <drofdarb> Thanks
[07:00] <tecywiz121> anyone know how to stop gnome from locking the screen on switch user?
[07:00] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, my onboard doesnt seem to have a problem with latency but i haven't put much of a strain on it
[07:00] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: sound quality isnt bad with onboard, i just lose the useful features, like 24-bit audio, low latency, multiple controlled inputs
[07:00] <BeastlyKings> I installed ubuntu with a dual boot and everything worked fine but after a couple days my windows partition won't boot. It was bound to happen, but is there any way to fix it?
[07:00] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: yeah, i do a lot of live recording though, guitar and midi keyboard plugged in, as well as vocals
[07:00] <tecywiz121> no one at all?
[07:01] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, me too but always just 1 at a time
[07:01] <wafro> anyone know why a SATA drive is being setup as ATA-7?
[07:01] <wafro> in 6.10 and 7.04
[07:01] <vexati0n> wafro, cause ATA-7 looks cooler than SATA in a config file.
[07:01] <tecywiz121> AHHHH
[07:01] <wafro> it says ATA/100 though
[07:01] <BeastlyKings> any takers?
[07:02] <wafro> the drive does 150
[07:02] <evolipel> so guys...
[07:02] <SeveredCross> BeastlyKings: What's it say when you try to boot Windows?
[07:02] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: i wouldnt have an issue if i used a hardware controller for say my guitar, running it through a pedal for processing, but, as of late i have been using guitar rig, without the rig, requires a lot of processing
[07:02] <pike_> Alex__: during the ubuntu install it should have asked you to install grub to the mbr did it do that? display your windows operating system and say it should be safe if that is the only other os?
[07:02] <vexati0n> BeastlyKings, most likely your computer is on strike from windows
[07:02] <PoofDaddy> Anybody know how to stop windows from popping up when inserting USB devices?
[07:02] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: in reason though, if i were to do some live processing with midi control, with certain effects, it helps alot to have the extra processing of an external card
[07:02] <BeastlyKings> I shold have wrote it down sorry. I'll be right back
[07:02] <Alex__> pike_: think it did that, make it ready to start?
[07:02] <evolipel> so has anyone had a time
[07:03] <evolipel> where they were computing as usual
[07:03] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, thats probly true too.
[07:03] <evolipel> but then one dark day, malevolence descended upon them
[07:03] <evolipel> in the form of the wireless card not being able to connect to the AP
[07:03] <evolipel> "unassociated" it said
[07:03] <evolipel> "help"
[07:03] <evolipel> but all effort was in vain
[07:03] <pike_> Alex__: you should when you reboot have a grub menu to select either ubuntu or windows (assuming win is installed) so yeah you should be able to reboot without the cd
[07:03] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: anyhow, thanks for the help. I suppose ill live with booting back and forth for now. I still dislike windows for web surfing. in fact, i get pissed at windows after using linux for a while. lol.
[07:03] <evolipel> for seemingly no other person has had this problem
[07:03] <evolipel> according to the great interwebs
[07:03] <SeveredCross> evolipel: Do you have a function-button to enable/disable wireless?
[07:04] <Alex__> pike: ok thanks
[07:04] <SeveredCross> (like, on my Dell laptop, it's Fn-F2)
[07:04] <vexati0n> SeanTater, what kind of card is it?
[07:04] <xprimarysuspectx> vexati0n: one more question. any recommended software packages for audio in ubuntu?
[07:04] <pike_> evolipel: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)   just incase you havent installled it yet
[07:04] <wafro> what kind of laptop?
[07:04] <tabbot> when i try and build alsa, its asks for version.h? do i need an actual kernel build for it, or is headers enough?
[07:04] <crimsun> tabbot: headers are sufficient.
[07:04] <vexati0n> xprimarysuspectx, i use Jokosher and MuSE
[07:04] <crimsun> tabbot: specifically, linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[07:05] <vexati0n> but i have no frame of reference to know how 'good' they are
[07:05] <xprimarysuspectx> heh. alright then, fair enough. thanks
[07:05] <PoofDaddy> Any ideas of stopping the windows from popping up when iserting USB devices?
[07:05] <xprimarysuspectx> poof: dont insert a usb device :D
[07:05] <xprimarysuspectx> sorry sorry. jokes
[07:05] <wafro> some laptop wireless cards need to be enabled through acpi
[07:05] <PoofDaddy> xprimarysuspectx Any other advice?
[07:05] <xprimarysuspectx> stay away from overpriced audio hardware too :(
[07:06] <shatrat> Whats the easiest way to lock the kernel version so it doesnt update? I need to explain it to my brother so that I dont have to explain to him how to get his wireless and video working again
[07:06] <xprimarysuspectx> :D
[07:06] <xprimarysuspectx> thanks guys
[07:06] <xprimarysuspectx> later
[07:06] <aoirthoir> later
[07:06] <puff> Hm, okay, reinstalled ubuntu from scratch on this server and now it's locked up during the boot at "running root scripts"
[07:06] <tabbot> PoofDaddy: if in gnome, then Preferences->"Removable Drives"-
[07:06] <wafro> shatrat http://www.howtoforge.com/roll_a_kernel_debian_ubuntu_way
[07:06] <PoofDaddy> tabbot: lemme try
[07:06] <wafro> it's briefly explained there
[07:06] <shatrat> wafro, Thanks
[07:06] <Flannel> !pin | shatrat
[07:06] <ubotu> shatrat: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[07:06] <wafro> you have to hold your current kernel package
[07:07] <maz> hey all, kind of a crazy question.  I bought an internal DVD RW, plugged it into power and IDE, it opens and shuts for the first few minutes after boot and then doesn't work at all.  Do I need to install a driver or something?
[07:07] <tabbot> PoofDaddy: there is an option called "browse removable media when inserted", uncheck it
[07:07] <puff> evolipel: You never did reply to my question about your problem.
[07:07] <Flannel> shatrat: actually, for kernels.  Don't use pinning (and don't compile your own), just remove the kernel metapackage.  linux-image-generic, for instance.
[07:07] <fervidfrogger> maz: If it is pysically not working, it's probably a prob with the drive
[07:08] <shatrat> Flannel, ah, great
[07:08] <wafro> maz: an optical drive usually doesn't open/close at boot
[07:08] <shatrat> Flannel, will that totally hose upgrades? or can feisty and stuff run on an old edgy kernel if it has to?
[07:08] <Flannel> shatrat: the kernel package (linux-image-[versionnumbers] -generic) is the one that is the current kernel, and the metapackage (without the version numbers) is what causes the upgrading.
[07:08] <wafro> maz: check your connections and master/slave settings
[07:08] <tabbot> when i try and build alsa 1.0.13 , its asks for version.h? do i need an actual kernel build for it, or is headers enough? any backports for 1.0.13 to edgy?
[07:08] <Flannel> shatrat: Feisty runs on the Feisty kernel
[07:08] <PoofDaddy> tabbot: you da man!
[07:08] <evolipel> puff: yeah I have
[07:08] <wafro> maz: and make sure the controller is enabled in the bios
[07:08] <evolipel> I said: "various: first I tried the gnome thing, then I went into the console... at which point it said "radio off," so I researched it, discovered I needed acerhk, blah blah blah, set it up, now iwlist eth1 scan properly gives the various AP's in the area... however, any attempt to connect to them still gives an "unassociated" in iwlist"
[07:08] <tabbot> PoofDaddy: glad I could help :)
[07:09] <shatrat> Flannel, so will removing the metapackage mean a broken upgrade, or will it force the kernel upgrade?
[07:09] <maz> fervidfrogger and wafro - thanks... what i mean is it will open/shut if i ask it to, but only for the first few minutes.  can't access the drive.  There used to be a CDrom in that position and I just swapped them over so master/slave should be ok
[07:09] <maz> wafro - ok, how do i do that?
[07:09] <Flannel> shatrat: and yes, I believe to upgrade, you'll want to have the appropriate kernel metapackage, and that means the newest.  upgrade-manager forces that, I believe.
[07:09] <evolipel> iwconfig*
[07:09] <wafro> maz: are you running linux?
[07:09] <evolipel> not iwlist
[07:09] <shatrat> Flannel, well, Ill cross that bridge when it comes. Thanks for the hot tip
[07:09] <maz> wafro - yes ubuntu breezy
[07:09] <puff> evolipel: So you did, like:  "sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "foo"; sudo iwconfig eth1 channel bar;  sudo dhclient eth1"
[07:09] <wafro> maz: check your dmesg output too
[07:09] <maz> !dmesg
[07:10] <Flannel> maz: you really ought to upgrade, Breezy is going out of support in a few weeks.
[07:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dmesg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:10] <maz> ok flannel, will check that out on the web page
[07:10] <quaal> why is my clock going off sync again. i have it synced to like 3 or more timeservers
[07:10] <quaal> i dont understand
[07:10] <ant> .quit
[07:10] <Flannel> maz: and there's a good chance that the HW issue will be fixed with the upgrade, so it's sort of silly to spend a bunch of time fixing, only to have it fixed automatically.
[07:10] <Flannel> !upgrade | maz
[07:10] <ubotu> maz: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:10] <Chris86wm> does anyone have experience setting up a usb webcam under ubuntu?
[07:10] <BeastlyKings> I was here about a broken windows parition?
[07:10] <maz> thanks flannel
[07:11] <quaal> BeastlyKings, wrong place?
[07:11] <Chris86wm> my camera is picked up in the device manager, but i cant seem to get it to work
[07:11] <wafro> quaal: does it happen after you have been running another OS?
[07:11] <evolipel> puff: yes, still gives "unassociated," and dhclient runs for a while but then dies with "no DHCPOFFERS"
[07:11] <quaal> wafro, i'm not sure.
[07:11] <Flannel> quaal: You using ntpdate? or ntpd?
[07:11] <quaal> why would that change it ?
[07:11] <quaal> Flannel, not sure
[07:11] <BeastlyKings> no, wondering who I was talkng to
[07:11] <wafro> if the OS uses local time or UTC
[07:11] <wafro> they will change the hardware clock
[07:11] <Flannel> quaal: Windows, for instance, only uses localtime, can't have the system clock set to UTC.  So, if it's going off by hours (your TZ offset) then that's the issue; if it's only off by minutes, it's not.
[07:12] <quaal> Flannel, its off by minutes
[07:12] <quaal> 50min
[07:12] <Flannel> quaal: ps aux | grep ntp, what's running?
[07:12] <wafro> do you observe DST?
[07:12] <quaal> wafro: it just changed a couple weeks ago
[07:12] <wafro> yeah but they changed the rules for DST
[07:13] <quaal> Flannel, just the grep command
[07:13] <quaal> wafro, did the ntp servers not update?
[07:13] <quaal> i'm 50min off btw
[07:13] <Flannel> quaal: then you're not running either ntpdate or ntpd, you'll want to change that: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/NTP.html
[07:13] <quaal> not +/- 1hr
[07:13] <wafro> ntp servers provide UTC
[07:13] <Flannel> quaal: NTP stuff is all UTC, which doesn't have DST
[07:13] <wafro> your machine adjusts it for DST
[07:13] <PoofDaddy> tabbot: why do some people tell me that it's not necessary to "safely remove flash devices"?  Are they stupid?  Or am I?
[07:13] <Flannel> quaal: I suggest ntpd over ntpdate, but that's just personal preference.
[07:13] <wafro> which would make it an hour out
[07:13] <BeastlyKings> well, anyway, I installed a dual boot of ubuntu and windows and everyhting was fine but after a couple days my windows partition has failed. It gives me this when I choose it at startup: "Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format"  How do I fix this? can it be fixed?
[07:13] <quaal> again, it is NOT +/- 1hr
[07:14] <wafro> if you haven't done a recent upgrade
[07:14] <maz> wafro: i found this in the dmesg:  ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx... does that mean anything?  what should i look for?
[07:14] <quaal> it goes off by minutes
[07:14] <Flannel> wafro: He's not running ntp in any form.
[07:14] <quaal> Flannel, what is it when i go into the time in the top right and set an ntp server ?
[07:14] <SeveredCross> BeastlyKings: Look in your grub config, and paste the part relating to your Windows XP install
[07:14] <pike_> PoofDaddy: a little of both :)  i just unplug the things btw
[07:14] <SeveredCross> Also, did you move your Windows XP partition?
[07:14] <quaal> keep clock synced with internet servers is checked
[07:14] <Flannel> quaal: That page will show you how to set everything up.
[07:14] <blanky> hey guys how do you recursively download all files with extension .txt from somesite.com/somedir using wget. I already tried wget http://www.somesite.com/mydir -A *.txt, but it downloads index.html files :(
[07:14] <BeastlyKings> define move?
[07:14] <z3n> what's the package name for C-related manpages?
[07:15] <bulmer> blanky try the -r option
[07:15] <blanky> thanks bullgard4
[07:15] <blanky> er, bulmer
[07:15] <SeveredCross> BeastlyKings: Example, it went from the 3rd partition to the 4th.
[07:15] <Flannel> quaal: I never had any luck with those gnome things.  I believe those only run each time you login (to gnome).
[07:15] <pike_> blanky: when you figure it out let me know wget has driven me crazy with that in the past
[07:15] <BeastlyKings> nope
[07:15] <quaal> Flannel, ah, that could be why
[07:15] <quaal> thanks
[07:15] <tabbot> crimsun: thank you m8, will try with it
[07:15] <Flannel> quaal: I suggest ntpd, which will run independant of anyone logging in, or whatever.
[07:15] <SeveredCross> Ditto pike_.
[07:15] <evolipel> so guys, does iwconfig sometimes betray you
[07:15] <evolipel> and says that it's unassociated?
[07:15] <br1|> ubuntu doesnt like my dell 8100 :/
[07:15] <bullgard4> blanky: I don't know thy you directed a thanks to me.
[07:15] <blanky> z3n: manpages-dev ?
[07:15] <PoofDaddy> tabbot:  I've had 2 pen drives with corrupted data and it's probably because I didn't know wtf I was doing.
[07:16] <wafro> pen drives have limited write cycles before they start corrupting data
[07:16] <quaal> hmm
[07:16] <BeastlyKings> SeveredCross: I didn't move anything, but I did recompile my kernel
[07:16] <wafro> or you diddn't flush the buffers to it before unplugging it
[07:16] <PoofDaddy> wafro: like 10,000, I think.
[07:16] <quaal> looks like i already had ntpd installed
[07:16] <quaal> ntp-simple anyways
[07:16] <SeveredCross> A kernel recompile wouldn't break it.
[07:16] <SeveredCross> Hum.
[07:17] <SeveredCross> Paste the part of your grub menu.lst file relating to Windows?
[07:17] <wafro> quaal use 'ntpdate pool.ntp.org'
[07:17] <tabbot> PoofDaddy: well i never used pen drives from gnome, i usually mount/umount safely from console, sometimes when files are in use and u force umount it, its get curropted
[07:17] <quaal> wafro, i have ntpd
[07:17] <quaal> so i guess ntpd pool.ntp.org
[07:17] <BeastlyKings> SeveredCross: how to do that? I'm a linux noob
[07:17] <quaal> will work the same
[07:18] <wafro> no
[07:18] <crdlb> quaal, nope
[07:18] <Flannel> quaal: Edit /etc/ntp.conf to make sure you have some servers.
[07:18] <blanky> pike_:  wget -r -l1 --no-parent -A.gif http://www.server.com/dir/
[07:18] <Flannel> quaal: then restart ntpd
[07:18] <wafro> if you're running ntpd, ntpdate won't work
[07:18] <wafro> type ntptrace
[07:18] <davidjohnston> does anyone in here give suggestions on home setups
[07:18] <puff> evolipel: Paste the iwlist output and iwconfig output to pastebin and show us.
[07:18] <SeveredCross> BeastlyKings: I think it'd be gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst or something like that.
[07:18] <crdlb> davidjohnston, specifically?
[07:18] <puff> evolipel: It sounds like it's probably an encryption issue.
[07:19] <davidjohnston> i already have the ideas layed out...i just want to know if they are stupid
[07:19] <z3n> is there a way to list all packages that have been set as "manually installed" in aptitude?
[07:19] <Flannel> quaal: sudo /etc/init.d/ntp-server restart
[07:19] <crdlb> ok
[07:19] <PoofDaddy> tabbot: Luckily I have backups for backups for backups.
[07:19] <davidjohnston> crdlb:  ok basically I use a OS X 10.4 laptop
[07:19] <mbdl> how do u force mount a harddist (hd5)
[07:19] <davidjohnston> my wife uses a Win xP laptop
[07:19] <BeastlyKings> severedCross: Also I can't access my hda1 partition for some reason
[07:19] <davidjohnston> i have 3 unused desktops
[07:19] <bulmer> mdb1you can not force a mount
[07:19] <davidjohnston> they are old but still can be used
[07:20] <mbdl> yes it say u can
[07:20] <wafro> !pastebin
[07:20] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:20] <tabbot> PoofDaddy: lol, too bad u don't have backups 4 that :P
[07:20] <davidjohnston> I was thinking setting up one as just like Kubuntu
[07:20] <bulmer> mbdl: if you think you can, well good luck

[07:20] <puff> evolipel: Er, wpa_supplicant.
[07:20] <PoofDaddy> tabbot: I need one more backup, then.
[07:20] <quaal> Flannel, ah... that started it.
[07:20] <mbdl> bulmer: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11952/
[07:20] <quaal> it wasnt started
[07:20] <davidjohnston> ubotu:  sorry I was just separating the thoughts
[07:21] <crdlb> davidjohnston, ubotu is a bot :D
[07:21] <Flannel> quaal: well, it might take some time to synch back up, since ntpd does it slowly.  But you're good now.
[07:21] <davidjohnston> crdlb: thanks
[07:21] <quaal> Flannel, cool. thansk man
[07:21] <mbdl> davidjohnston: yep look at the name smarty
[07:21] <multidex> What printer would anyone suggest I purchase that would work fine with Ubuntu (Edgy Eft)?
[07:21] <moeru> What's a good recommended Torrent client? I can't stand Aszerus and BitTornado
[07:21] <davidjohnston> mbdl:  good call
[07:21] <mbdl> bulmer:did u get my msg?
[07:21] <crdlb> davidjohnston, so you're asking if kubuntu is a good idea?
[07:21] <pike_> blanky: cheers
[07:22] <Flannel> !torrent | moeru
[07:22] <ubotu> moeru: Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt)  -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html

[07:22] <bulmer> mbdl: if you think you can, well good luck
[07:22] <wafro> can someone look at this and tell me if the SATA configuration doesn't look right? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11953/
[07:22] <megafauna> Hi, can someone recommend a good file renamer? (for replacing " " with "_")
[07:22] <crdlb> multidex, hp or epson, but look up the model first
[07:22] <moeru> hm..Azureus just crashes. Time to try KTorrent
[07:22] <PoofDaddy> Anyone ever heard of Wink (tutorial software)?  Is there something better for Linux for recording the monitor?
[07:22] <multidex> crdlb: thanks
[07:22] <blanky> pike_: now it downloads to a folder named after the site I'm downloading from
[07:22] <SeveredCross> I feel like batch renaming should be easy.
[07:22] <happytron> anyone know a utility for grabbing a specific line (identified by its number) from an (ascii) file?
[07:22] <SeveredCross> happytron: sed?
[07:22] <tabbot> PoofDaddy: :) have u tried keeping your files in subversion? http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/06/svn_homedir.html
[07:23] <wafro> it shows the drive being configured as UDMA/100 .. but its a SATA drive, 1.5Mbps
[07:23] <Flannel> PoofDaddy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts
[07:23] <davidjohnston> crdlb: so one will be Kubuntu, then one will be a test server using Ubuntu server to run a lamp and also support RoR, this will also be a svn server.  Finally the third will be another Ubuntu server used as a file share to the win and mac laptops using samba and it will have a HFS+ external drive on it, but I've already loaded the HFS+ drivers for linux and they work wonderfully
[07:23] <SeveredCross> (That's not to say that I know the syntax, I just seem to recall being told that sed can do that)
[07:23] <happytron> hmm, let me look at the man... i was never quite sure what sed is for
[07:23] <davidjohnston> crdlb:  does that sound decent
[07:23] <SuperTeece> Is this the right place for a Fiesty question?
[07:23] <stutsman> puff: I just wanted to let you know that I'm reading through your journal and it has been EXTREMELY helpful so far... I just wanted to thank you for sharing it with me.
[07:23] <happytron> i actually have one process spitting out line numbers, and i would like to pipe them into another process...
[07:24] <crdlb> davidjohnston, I don't see a problem
[07:24] <Flannel> tabbot, PoofDaddy, the problem with svn for homedirs is your data is duplicated, so you have two versions in your homedir, then a third whereever your server is.
[07:24] <davidjohnston> crdlb: sorry just never used Ubuntu...i've always used SuSe and just thought I would get an opinion
[07:24] <moeru> Oh, what would make Conky close after bootup? I've got it in Sessions->Startup Programs
[07:24] <moeru> or I've just got the command "conky" in there
[07:25] <crdlb> davidjohnston, I don't see why not combine the two servers though?
[07:25] <PoofDaddy> tabbot: I'll look into that, but I don't exactly know the benefits.  Could I still use my OTFE?
[07:25] <BeastlyKings> SeveredCross: Still don't know what to do here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11954/
[07:25] <SeveredCross> happytron: You'd like to pipe those into another process that would read the lines and do what?
[07:25] <davidjohnston> crdlb: and then what would I use the 3rd box for...plus remember these machines are not extremely fast and don't have tons of ram either
[07:25] <Assimilator> I'm having trobble finding the right plugin for firefox to load flash media correctly
[07:25] <happytron> cat those lines from a file
[07:25] <davidjohnston> crdlb: or big hd's really either except one
[07:26] <puff> stutsman: No sweat :-). I keep meaning to write it up better.
[07:26] <SeveredCross> happytron: Cat them somewhere?
[07:26] <SeveredCross> Or just cat them out to stdout?
[07:26] <evolipel> guys...
[07:26] <evolipel> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11955/
[07:26] <Flannel> Assimilator: 'flashplugin-nonfree' in multiverse.
[07:26] <evolipel> any ideas?
[07:26] <happytron> doesn't matter
[07:26] <SeveredCross> Well, I suppose you could write a short bash script.
[07:26] <tabbot> Flannel: i have a second drive, where I keep my $HOME svn, its dedicated backup drive. I suppose i don't mind the duplication, drive space is cheap.
[07:27] <happytron> yeah, that's always an option =] 
[07:27] <Assimilator> will that also work for kubuntu
[07:27] <SeveredCross> That takes an input of a line number, calls sed and picks out the line, then writes it out somewhere
[07:27] <crdlb> davidjohnston, I really think one computer can handle all your server needs easily, but what you do with the spare is up to you :D
[07:27] <tabbot> Flannel: i have a second drive, where I keep my HOME svn, its dedicated backup drive. I suppose i don't mind the duplication, drive space is cheap.
[07:27] <happytron> but i would prefer to acquire some unix skills in the process
[07:27] <PoofDaddy> Flannel:  I'm getting a lot of good advice from you folks.  How does that compare to Wink?  Have you tried that?
[07:27] <SeveredCross> Well, sed's a *nix skill if I've ever seen one.
[07:27] <BeastlyKings> someone? My windows partition is broke...
[07:27] <moeru> !conky | moeru
[07:27] <moeru> eh, worth a try
[07:27] <happytron> yeah, i should learn it
[07:27] <SeveredCross> evolipel: I had that problem when I couldn't connect to the access point.
[07:27] <Flannel> tabbot: shrug.  I'm toying with the idea of making some tweaks to SVN to not keep a local copy.  Since I'm using it entirely over ethernet, I don't have to worry about the additional bandwidth for commits.
[07:27] <SeveredCross> Did you get the question I asked before?
[07:27] <Flannel> PoofDaddy: no idea.  I don't even have a GUI ;)
[07:28] <megafauna> Hi, can someone recommend a good file renamer? (for replacing " " with "_")
[07:28] <tabbot> my msgs are here seem to go towards /dev/null :(
[07:28] <tabbot> Flannel: i have a second drive, where I keep my HOME svn, its dedicated backup drive. I suppose i don't mind the duplication, drive space is cheap.
[07:28] <davidjohnston> crdlb:  since it's svn and I may have multiple projects i was just concerned for space, then also the machine that has the space i planned on using for Kubuntu because the gui and all
[07:28] <SeveredCross> Are oyu on a laptop that has a hardware wireless switch or a function key to do so?
[07:28] <mjbrooks> ant: good evening sir
[07:28] <Flannel> megafauna: tried 'rename' and/or 'mv'?
[07:28] <Flannel> tabbot: You've said that three times.
[07:28] <SeveredCross> Flannel: Can he rename many files at once like that though?
[07:28] <PoofDaddy> Flannel: I'd prefer to go command as well.  I can't stand eye candy on a computer, but I'm a novice.
[07:28] <Flannel> SeveredCross: of course
[07:29] <SeveredCross> I don't recall the syntax.
[07:29] <megafauna> Flannel: I need to do it in bulk. I have many mp3s
[07:29] <stutsman> puff
[07:29] <megafauna> Flannel: But thanks for the response
[07:29] <stutsman> err
[07:29] <Flannel> megafauna: that's exactly what they're designed for.  You want rename, and not mv.
[07:30] <megafauna> Flannel: ah! /me types rename into shell
[07:30] <tabbot> Flannel: erm, sorry m8
[07:30] <davidjohnston> crdlb: so what would use the third for because i already have one coming for archiving
[07:30] <Flannel> tabbot: just letting you know ;)
[07:31] <Assimilator> ok I now need macromedia flash 6 for video for firefox
[07:31] <crdlb> davidjohnston, you could use it for backing up the other two
[07:31] <I_Glitch> Quick question: How do I configure proxy settings via command line ?
[07:31] <CrAsH_0vEr> hello
[07:32] <Glombool> Maybe this isn't the right channel to ask in, but, is it possible to make an LVM of loopback disk images?
[07:32] <davidjohnston> crdlb: well thanks for the opinion...one more thing, you ever setup Rails on Apache
[07:32] <evolipel> my incredibly useful perennial pastebin link: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11955/
 Hello
 i need help to fix my modem on ubuntu
 yo
 can you help me,
[07:32] <CrAsH_0vEr> * Galga has quit IRC (Connection timed out)
 im new on this
[07:32] <SeveredCross> evolipel: PAY ATTENTION.
[07:32] <Flannel> CrAsH_0vEr: please don't do that again.
[07:32] <SeveredCross> I asked you a question.
[07:32] <somewhat-> hello.. has anyone experienced Xorg hanging loading Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules//libvm86.so ??
[07:32] <evolipel> oh
[07:32] <crdlb> davidjohnston, nope, I've only needed php
[07:32] <evolipel> you didn't get my /msg?
[07:32] <SeveredCross> Do you have a laptop with a hardware wireless switch or a function-button to turn Wireless on/off?
[07:32] <evolipel> yeah, but the question is, why wouldn't it connect?
[07:33] <evolipel> the interface works fine (scan returns all the AP's in the area), etc.
[07:33] <SeveredCross> That's the third bloody time I've asked you.
[07:33] <SeveredCross> I'm TRYING to help you.
[07:33] <davidjohnston> crdlb: yea me too so far...i've just read horror stories, but i'll get it up
[07:33] <Arrick> hey anyone else notice that www.ubuntu.com is down?
[07:33] <evolipel> oh, sorry, yes, I've answered that also before
[07:33] <evolipel> yes I do
[07:33] <evolipel> but I've already installed acerhk
[07:33] <davidjohnston> crdlb: thanks for your opinion...night to all
[07:33] <evolipel> and the little LED is on
[07:33] <megafauna> Flannel: I shall have to kung-fu up my bash skills (I am working thru a tutorial at present). thanks for the tip
[07:33] <CrAsH_0vEr> the fabricant is ageres
[07:33] <evolipel> (for the wireleess interface)
[07:33] <SeveredCross> Okay.
[07:33] <Flannel> evolipel: queries are blocked on freenode fro unregistered nicks.
[07:33] <crdlb> Arrick, indeed it is
[07:33] <Flannel> megafauna: mostly just regexp skills.  But yes, good luck.
[07:33] <SeveredCross> Have you tried rebooting? I had that happen to me once, after a few reboots it worked.
[07:34] <shane634> !register
[07:34] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[07:34] <Arrick> thanks for verifying, I was gonna be pissed at my ISP crdlb
[07:34] <[Tuxedo] > Could someone recommend a video player that plays .avi files?
[07:34] <evolipel> well I've tried a few reboots throughout the configuring process, no luck yet
[07:34] <SeveredCross> [Tuxedo] : VLC, mplayer, Kaffeine on KDE...
[07:34] <evolipel> (as in, throughout endlessly giving it pretty much the same commands)
[07:34] <pike_> !restricted | [Tuxedo] 
[07:34] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[07:34] <ubotu> [Tuxedo] : For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:34] <evolipel> ohh, thanks Flannel, that should explain why people keep getting mad
[07:34] <evolipel> (the unregistered nick thing)
[07:34] <SeveredCross> I had that problem when I couldn't get a DHCP response from the access point.
[07:34] <mjbrooks> ant: you awake?
[07:34] <SeveredCross> Like I said, resolved after a few boots.
[07:35] <somewhat-> ok so how about this... does anyone know why using F4 to specify a resolution on bootup in the liveCD is the only way I can get Ubuntu to boot?
[07:35] <SeveredCross> Any reason that your AP wouldn't give you an IP?
[07:35] <pike_> [Tuxedo] : but out of the box support without installing seperate codecs..   vlc
[07:35] <CrAsH_0vEr> somebody could help me
[07:35] <SeveredCross> evolipel: Also, have you tried using wpa_supplicant?
[07:35] <evolipel> nope, it works fine on 2 other boxes (on both Windows and linux)
[07:35] <[Tuxedo] > pike thanks, that's what I was needing. I'm not all that great with Ubuntu yet. =)
[07:35] <evolipel> well, do you need wpa_supplicant for connections that don't need WPA?
[07:35] <CrAsH_0vEr> ??\
[07:36] <zsandoz> anyone know anything about snd-hda-intel bugs?
[07:36] <Flannel> megafauna: believe... `rename 's/ /_/' *` will work.
[07:36] <BeastlyKings> how to fix XP partition? my grub file: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11954/
[07:36] <SeveredCross> I've heard some people say that it may help estabilish connections.
[07:36] <aldin> does ubuntu automatically change "daylight" time
[07:36] <zsandoz> im pretty sure thats the sound driver i need, but i get no sound even though it shows up in ALSA
[07:36] <Flannel> megafauna: but, please try that on a small subset.  You might need to set it to a global match.
[07:36] <SeveredCross> BeastlyKings: Your grub menu.lst looks fine, so I have no idea what is your problem.
[07:36] <evolipel> well I'll try it out after a few reboots
[07:36] <Flannel> aldin: If you've updated in the past year, yes.
[07:36] <[Tuxedo] > I tried a few others, like mplayer-video, and Codiene, but they wouldn't play for various reasons
[07:36] <Flannel> megafauna: the global version would be `rename 's/ /_/g' *`
[07:37] <BeastlyKings> anybody else got a clue as to what the prob is?
[07:37] <mjbrooks> zsandoz, I have an intel sound card   there are known bugs ;/
[07:37] <aldin> Flannel: how can i do it over console
[07:37] <pike_> [Tuxedo] : i prefer mplayer its more versitile but vlc will play almost anything
[07:37] <Flannel> aldin: updated?  'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'
[07:37] <megafauna> Flannel: You are talking above my newb level. I've done 2 courses in C++ at the ni level and about 3 hours of an online bash intro. I am a total newb. In a week or two maybe not...
[07:37] <aldin> BeastlyKings: what is problem can u boot ur WXP?
[07:37] <binarydigit> BeastlyKings: whats wrong with yoru XP parition
[07:37] <zsandoz> mjbrooks: i found so many discussions about it and everything i tried failed.. im going to upgrade to 2.6.20-12 and see if that helps
[07:37] <[Tuxedo] > mplayer told me that it couldn't load video out, or something to that effect :(
[07:37] <SeveredCross> binarydigit, aldin: It doesn't boot.
[07:37] <aldin> Flannel: no, uptade to current time
[07:37] <mjbrooks> zsandoz, the latest ALSA correct the bugs I had
[07:38] <SeveredCross> He gets an error about unknown executable.
[07:38] <Flannel> aldin: Your hardware clock is set wrong, if you've got the wrong time.
[07:38] <BeastlyKings> It won't boot: "Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format"
[07:38] <Flannel> aldin: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/NTP.html suggest installing ntpd over ntpdate.
[07:38] <Shrimpy_> Hello, i am running azureus and it want's to auto update. but when i download the update it does not automatically update it's self. is there somthing i need to do to enable this?
[07:38] <mjbrooks> _ant, sup
[07:38] <lauchazombie> i configured grub , so when i try to start win it says "starting up" or something and it kinda freez there , should i wait some time , like is the first time it mus congiure some staff right?
[07:39] <aldin> Flannel: look, lets say i have wrong time, how can i fix it over terminal command
[07:39] <zsandoz> mjb: u mean the kernel modules or the user-space utilities?
[07:39] <malek> anyone know how to get jackbeat working?  Anyone familiar with JACK?
[07:39] <Flannel> megafauna: Well, it's perl not C++, Regular Expressions... uh, well, anywya.  Try that command.  But try it on a small folder of guinea pig files please.
[07:39] <aldin> Flannel: to connect to some internet time server
[07:39] <binarydigit> BeastlyKings: you sure your XP partition is 0,0?
[07:39] <megafauna> Flannel: alright
[07:39] <mjbrooks> zsandoz, yes ;)
[07:39] <Flannel> aldin: follow the instructions for ntpd here: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/NTP.html
[07:39] <aldin> Flannel: ok thx
[07:39] <BeastlyKings> binarydigit: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11954/ I think so
[07:40] <megafauna> Flannel: and you type an example? Say file.txt to file1.txt
[07:40] <multidex> malek: I'm familiar with Jack somewhat
[07:40] <SeveredCross> binarydigit: It was detected by the installer that way.
[07:40] <mjbrooks> zsandoz, you using edgy?
[07:40] <SeveredCross> I've never seen the installer pick it up wrong.
[07:40] <megafauna> Flannel: I don't know where to put the file names in the expression
[07:40] <binarydigit> hmph
[07:40] <BeastlyKings> it worked for awhile
[07:40] <lauchazombie> i configured grub , so when i try to start win it says "starting up" or something and it kinda freez there , should i wait some time , like is the first time it mus congiure some staff right? <-----any idea?
[07:40] <SeveredCross> BeastlyKings: If you want to check what binarydigit is asking about, type fdisk -l and paste the output to a pastebin.
[07:40] <SeveredCross> lauchazombie: Any error messages?
[07:40] <Flannel> megafauna: the * at the end is 'all files', I assumed you had a folder full of MP3s only.  Is that not the case?
[07:40] <SeveredCross> It doesn't need to configure anything the first time through.
[07:41] <malek> multidex: awesome.  Okay, I've got qjackctl running, but jackbeat won't start up.  qjackctl seems to see it, but no window comes up
[07:41] <megafauna> Flannel: Yes, that is the case.
[07:41] <zsandoz> mjb: im using the feisty one
[07:41] <[Tuxedo] > Well, vlc won't work, and it won't close now O.o
[07:41] <wafro> does anyone know how to debug suspend on a laptop? :)
[07:41] <SeveredCross> [Tuxedo] : ps aux | grep vlc and then kill it :)
[07:41] <binarydigit> BeastlyKings: do a sudo fdisk -lu and put it on pastebin
[07:41] <mjbrooks> zsandoz, herd 5 I'm assuming?
[07:41] <crdlb> wafro, ebay it, and get a thinkpad :D
[07:41] <SeveredCross> Err right, I forgot to mention sudo.
[07:42] <megafauna> Flannel: I do want to learn bash, I'm just utterly new to it
[07:42] <wafro> ick thinkpad :)
[07:42] <Flannel> megafauna: then make that the your current directory, and do that command.  If you wanted to just do mp3 files: `rename 's/ /_/g' *.mp3`
[07:42] <Flannel> !bash | megafauna
[07:42] <ubotu> megafauna: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[07:42] <mjbrooks> zsandoz, Feisty Beta seems to have it fixed
[07:42] <Flannel> megafauna: 'cd' is change directory, 'ls' LiSts the directory content.
[07:42] <lauchazombie> so why it takes so much time? , like whenn i finished installig xp , when i started ubuntu it took more time than before
[07:42] <aldin> Flannel: aldin@fawn:~$ sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com
[07:42] <aldin> 25 Mar 07:42:02 ntpdate[6947] : the NTP socket is in use, exiting
[07:42] <aldin> aldin@fawn:~$
[07:42] <mjbrooks> zsandoz, I'm listening to an mp3 stream in it now
[07:42] <Flannel> megafauna: that's all you need for the current thing, I believe.  Oh, and tab complete works wonderfully.
[07:42] <megafauna> Flannel: cd and ls i know:)
[07:42] <lauchazombie> i know im fine in menu.lst
[07:42] <megafauna> Flannel: trying now
[07:43] <Flannel> aldin: right.  you'll need to kill the current ntpdate program before re-running it.
[07:43] <BeastlyKings> binarydigit: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11956/
[07:43] <malek> multidex: I suspect my jack setup is done wrong, but I would have though that since I'm using the ubuntu packages it would work right away, or at least request me to make some changes.  Just how does one get this all working?
[07:43] <puff> Anybody know LVM?
[07:43] <[Tuxedo] > SeveredCross numeric argument required
[07:43] <zsandoz> mjb: i dont think i have it
[07:43] <wafro>  /lib/modules/2.6.20.3-ubuntu1matt/build/include/asm/processor.h:82: error: CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT undeclared here (not in a function)

[07:44] <wafro>  /lib/modules/2.6.20.3-ubuntu1matt/build/include/asm/processor.h:82: error: requested alignment is not a constant
[07:44] <shane634> wafro, pastebin it all

[07:44] <SeveredCross> ps aux | grep vlc was just to find out VLC's pid.

[07:44] <SeveredCross> Once you know the pid, type kill <vlc's-pid>

[07:44] <vexati0n> meh
[07:44] <BeastlyKings> binarydigit? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11956/
[07:44] <SeveredCross> If it doesn't die, you might have to pass an option to kill that I don't remember right now to send a different signal.
[07:45] <J-_> what does the avahi permission mean?
[07:45] <vexati0n> okay.. Project Looking Glass officially blows.
[07:45] <happy_nic> i accidentally created a file named -- Any idea how I can delete it?
[07:45] <Flannel> aldin: right.  That's set you to the current time.
[07:45] <SeveredCross> LOL happy_nic.
[07:45] <SeveredCross> rm \-\- ?
[07:45] <blade_> OMG...i will be the envy of geeks around the world....as we speak...my girlfriend, is sitting at her computer, naked, and reading Bash.org
[07:45] <wafro> shane634 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11957/
[07:45] <happy_nic> SeveredCross: already tried and failed with that =[
[07:45] <aldin> Flannel: just this one, how he knows which timetone am i?
[07:45] <SeveredCross> blade_: Woohoo, congratulations
[07:45] <megafauna> Flannel: hmmm. still playing
[07:46] <SeveredCross> happy_nic: Tried tabcompleting it?
[07:46] <multidex> malek: you are using alsa for Jack driver?
[07:46] <infornography> Anybody know anything about getting ATI graphics cards to work in Ubuntu?
[07:46] <happy_nic> SeveredCross: yep. it just shows up as --
[07:46] <SeveredCross> blade_: Is she inflatable?
[07:46] <Flannel> aldin: System time is set to UTC.  Your local computer adjusts the system time to your timezone offset.
[07:46] <SeveredCross> happy_nic: And rm fails?
[07:46] <BeastlyKings> binarydigit? you there?
[07:46] <SeveredCross> !ati | infornography
[07:46] <ubotu> infornography: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:46] <blade_> nope...she's real
[07:46] <shane634> wafro, i can't help with that but someone here will
[07:46] <vexati0n> blade_, lots of geeks have been around naked girls before. just because you're not paying for the privilege doesn't mean anything. really.
[07:46] <megafauna> Flannel: It isn't working yet
[07:46] <Flannel> blade_: please take that elsewhere.
[07:46] <infornography> I installed the drivers fine, but fuck if that makes any difference, some Mesa shit arses it up
[07:46] <SeveredCross> Oh, you're not getting direct rendering.
[07:46] <wafro> can anyone else look at this compile failure? de_, lots of geeks have been around naked girls before. just because you're not paying for the privilege doesn't mean
[07:46] <wafro>            anything. really.
 Flannel: It isn't working yet
 blade_: please take that elsewhere.
[07:46] <SeveredCross> To be totally honest, I made it work, couldn't tell you how
[07:46] <happy_nic> SeveredCross: yeah, it says missing operand
[07:47] <wafro> sorry
[07:47] <malek> multidex: okay, now it's even worse - qjackctl can't even start up jack!  It says at start up "Could not open ALSA sequencer as a client"
[07:47] <aldin> Flannel: how can i see through terminal which timezone am i now
[07:47] <wafro> de_, lots of geeks have been around naked girls before. just because you're not paying for the privilege doesn't mean

[07:47] <aldin> i saw it on clock graphicaly..
[07:47] <wafro> ack
[07:47] <SeveredCross> LOL wafro.
[07:47] <wafro> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11957/
[07:47] <wafro> i'm sorry :)
[07:47] <Flannel> megafauna: I'll take a look.
[07:47] <multidex> malek: Make sure you're not running any other audio programs first
[07:47] <malek> multidex: then it says : 15:46:45.459 Could not connect to JACK server as client. Please check the messages window for more info.
[07:47] <SeveredCross> infornography: Mine started to work sometime around the time I used the binary driver from ATI's website rather than using Envy.
[07:47] <SeveredCross> And also after many many xorg edits.
[07:47] <megafauna> Flannel: No it is!
[07:47] <SeveredCross> And thne my HDD crapped out. <_>
[07:48] <megafauna> Flannel: I had made a copy/paste error
[07:48] <aldin> Flannel: Europe/Sarajevo, but is there some variable like $TIMEZONE?
[07:48] <BeastlyKings> I seem to have lost binarydigit. anybody else wanna take a crack at it?
[07:48] <SeveredCross> So I can't show you my xorg.conf
[07:48] <Dant1> Hi room
[07:48] <megafauna> Flannel: :) Thanks! I had a horrible fit of laziness there. what does the "s" mean, and also the "'"
[07:48] <multidex> malek: I had to mess with my Jack setup (gui) to overcome some latency problems - I noticed I got that message when I used 3 as periods/buffer
[07:49] <BeastlyKings> anybody?
[07:49] <malek> multidex: where's that option?
[07:49] <knicknic> the website seems to be down
[07:49] <malek> multidex: okay mine is on 2
[07:50] <Dant1> Hey does anyone know why I can't use 1024x768 for my screen res?
[07:50] <multidex> is the driver ALSA?
[07:50] <malek> multidex: yep
[07:50] <knicknic> where is the ubuntu website
[07:50] <crimsun> period/buffer should be a power-of-2, and at the very least divisible by 2.
[07:50] <Flannel> megafauna: it works for me.  It's three pieces, the rename command, then a quoted string that's a regular expression, then the files to act upon.  Those ` quotes are to denote that it's a command (in this channel), and shouldn't be fed to the command.
[07:50] <megafauna> Flannel: I had made a copy/paste error
[07:50] <multidex> malek - you might use package manager to make sure you have all the alsa packages - do other Jack audio programs work for you?
[07:50] <megafauna> Flannel: It works fine!:)
[07:51] <Flannel> megafauna: s/1/2/ is substitute 1 into 2, where 1 and 2 are regexps.  then the g at the end is global (so if there's more than one on a line)
[07:51] <malek> multidex: well I've never used jack before.
[07:51] <BeastlyKings> so nobody wants to or ya'll don't know how?
[07:51] <Flannel> megafauna: ah good. Thought I was losing my mind.
[07:51] <arch_> how can I have GNOME set the root background image (rather than a layer)? Or, how can I allow a different program (feh, qiv, chbg) to change the root background?
[07:51] <malek> multidex: I'll have a look in synaptic
[07:51] <NickGarvey> BeastlyKings, what was the question?
[07:51] <multidex> malek: oh cool.  finally i might be able to help somebody with something.  my frames/period are set to 512, sample rate is 44100, periods/buffer is 4
[07:52] <happy_nic> I killed it!
[07:52] <happy_nic> find ./ -name "[-] [-] " -exec rm '{}' \;
[07:52] <multidex> malek- your soundcard is full duplex I hope?
[07:52] <malek> multidex: hehe, happy to be of service to you ;-)
[07:52] <megafauna> Flannel: ah. ok. I got that the " " was changed to "_". , the g is global, I had to drop the quotes but I still don't get the "s"
[07:52] <happy_nic> that got rid of the file named --
[07:52] <BeastlyKings> NickGarvey: my XP partition won't boot: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11956/
[07:52] <malek> multidex: I don't even know what that means...
[07:52] <Dant1> 1024x768? Anyone?
[07:52] <megafauna> Flannel: how do I rename folders now?
[07:52] <SeveredCross> megafauna: s is for substitute
[07:52] <Flannel> megafauna: s is for substitute.  Just part of PCRE
[07:52] <BeastlyKings> NickGarvey: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11954/
[07:52] <NickGarvey> BeastlyKings, have anymore information?
[07:52] <SeveredCross> Dant1: Sounds like you need videocard drivers
[07:52] <SeveredCross> Which videocard you have.
[07:53] <megafauna> Flannel: "s" == easy as pie then..:)
[07:53] <SeveredCross> Err, which videocard do you have.
[07:53] <Flannel> lastlog -clear
[07:53] <malek> multidex: it's one of these: C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738
[07:53] <Dant1> Ah. Yay for drivers
[07:53] <SirOsisOfTheLive> I just installed the ubunto 6.10 client.  Why can i not know the root password on my own machine?
[07:53] <megafauna> Flannel: It all makes sense now. Also thanks SeveredCross
[07:53] <NickGarvey> BeastlyKings, I mean, what happens when you try to boot it?
[07:53] <SeveredCross> SirOsisOfTheLive: It's blank I believe. :)
[07:53] <SeveredCross> And you don't need it, just use sudo.
[07:53] <Flannel> SirOsisOfTheLive: you can.  But, the root account is disabled by default, and there's absolutely no reason to re-enable it.
[07:53] <BeastlyKings> NickGarvey: "Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format"
[07:53] <megafauna> Flannel: Can I make it do subfolders?
[07:53] <Flannel> SirOsisOfTheLive: not blank, locked.
[07:53] <SeveredCross> Ahh.
[07:54] <SeveredCross> I didn't know it was locked.
[07:54] <[Tuxedo] > ack
[07:54] <SeveredCross> :)

[07:54] <[Tuxedo] > Linux hates my ATi, I know it now.
[07:54] <SirOsisOfTheLive> hmm i wanted to do a find from / and there were lots of folders i didnt have permission for
[07:54] <phasegen> puff:  I followed the instructions given at command line, file share program would start, but still not connect.  The official package was just too old.  The rest of the world had moved on.  I opened Automatix and found a comparable one, intalled it, and got up and running.
[07:54] <malek> multidex: so what alsa packages do I need?  alsaplayer-jack?
[07:54] <I_Glitch> [Tuxedo] , what card do you have?
[07:54] <blanky> hey guys I have wget  -nd -r -l1 --no-parent -A pk3 http://somesite/downloads/packages/ base/, but it wont move the downloaded files into the base/ folder, what must I do?
[07:54] <Flannel> SirOsisOfTheLive: use sudo.
[07:55] <multidex> malek: try changing Frame/Period setting to 512 and periods/buffer to four, click ok try to Start jack
[07:55] <SirOsisOfTheLive> ok ill try it .. thanks
[07:55] <BeastlyKings> I don't know what to search for... there are so many windows not booting probs ot there
[07:55] <[Tuxedo] > Radeon 9000 Pro, but I got Beryl working on it, so Linux actually runs well
[07:55] <Flannel> megafauna: I... don't believe rename can do directories.  And, I actually don't know what can.  Hmm.
[07:55] <[Tuxedo] > I get great FPS
[07:55] <multidex> malek - you do need that

[07:56] <NickGarvey> BeastlyKings, I just googled the error you just gave me

[07:56] <malek> multidex: Okay, installing the packages.
[07:56] <junior58> hi, running ubuntu in vmware, and i got a console, what should i type in to get into gui?
[07:56] <multidex> malek - i have about every package that mentions ALSA installed
[07:56] <I_Glitch> I'm running Radeon X1600, but I haven't installed ubuntu on it yet, I hope it doesn't give me any trouble.
[07:56] <Dant1> In my infinite noobdom, I can't remember what graphics card my computer has. How do I figure out the drivers I need?
[07:56] <megafauna> Flannel: It's not doing all the spaces in the files. I checked to see if it was a double space "  " instead of a single " " but it's not
[07:56] <SeveredCross> I_Glitch: It almost certainly will. :) You'll have to install the fglrx binary driver.
[07:56] <NickGarvey> junior58, um.. you should get one by default.. but "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" should do it too
[07:56] <malek> multidex: Oh... was hoping not to have to install _everything_!
[07:56] <megafauna> Flannel: hmmmmmm
[07:57] <Flannel> megafauna: do you have the version with or without the g at the end?
[07:57] <multidex> malek, get alsa-base, alsa-firmware-loaders, alsamixergui, alsaplayer-jack
[07:57] <I_Glitch> SeveredCross: and how do I go about that?
[07:57] <megafauna> Flannel: I am an idiot. I was missing the g
[07:57] <[Tuxedo] > sonofabi---!?!
[07:57] <junior58> NickGarvey: says command not found
[07:57] <malek> multidex: okay, will do.

[07:58] <hot`loaded> but i am planing to like switch to ubuntu
[07:58] <NickGarvey> !upgrade
[07:58] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:58] <SeveredCross> dfgas: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:58] <khermans> is ubuntu.com down?
[07:58] <SeveredCross> ?
[07:58] <NickGarvey> dfgas, is that site down?
[07:58] <hot`loaded> is there anyone here who can help me decide?
[07:59] <crdlb> khermans, yes
[07:59] <NickGarvey> hot`loaded, try the live cd
[07:59] <khermans> crdlb, any reason?
[07:59] <NickGarvey> hot`loaded, you can dual boot also, you can have both windows and ubuntu installed
[07:59] <multidex> malek - I have a good page for you - I had learned most Jack stuff with Demudi - check out http://www.agnula.info/
[07:59] <crdlb> khermans, no idea, but it's been down for at least a few minutes
[07:59] <quaal> this guide says that i need to run a command 'mkraid /dev/md0' but i'm getting command not found http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO-5.html#ss5.6
[07:59] <quaal> i installed mdadm
[07:59] <quaal> what is the problem?
[07:59] <hot`loaded> i formated my laptop like 2-3 weeks ago
[08:00] <multidex> malek: get the package alsa-tools too
[08:00] <Flannel> dfgas: `gksu "update-manager -c"`
[08:00] <hot`loaded> and planned of creating a dual os on my computer
[08:00] <hot`loaded> xp and ubuntu
[08:00] <hot`loaded> but it was not successful
[08:00] <hot`loaded> :)
[08:00] <malek> multidex: cheers, I'm chekcing it out.  I couldn't find any helpful pages on the web when I looked.
[08:00] <khermans> quaal, you want something like mdadm --raid-level=5 --devices /dev/sda /dev/sdb
[08:01] <ant-> hot`loaded : use the live cd to test ubuntu on your system, i would go with 6.10 (edgy eft)
[08:01] <khermans> i forget the syntax, but look it up
[08:01] <multidex> malek: I gotta take off but good luck with it.  DeMudi.agnula.org has tutorials as well - and that stuff has applied to ubuntu for me
[08:01] <ant-> !dualboot | hot`loaded

[08:05] <puff> Okay, so... I just installed feisty server.
[08:05] <hot`loaded> khermans how?
[08:05] <quaal> khermans, thats the same guide i just linked
[08:05] <crdlb> nick_, the floppy may need to be removed from you fstab
[08:05] <crdlb> your*
[08:05] <SuperTeece> if a usb wifi adapter claims to come with drivers for Kernel2.4/2.6+ does that mean it will work in Feisty?
[08:05] <ant-> mjbrooks : random programs?
[08:05] <hot`loaded> khermans how do i register?
[08:05] <rbwsam> kkd: go to organize bookmarks and export then import them
[08:05] <Flannel> !register | hot`loaded
[08:05] <ubotu> hot`loaded: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[08:05] <mjbrooks> ant-, yeah   no logic to it at all

[08:05] <quaal> khermans, i'm making a raid1 array, so i'm using the raid1 section of the guide. http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO-5.html#ss5.6 ..I made the /etc/raidtab file just like the guide says
[08:06] <hot`loaded> !register
[08:06] <hot`loaded> !register /?
[08:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about register /? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:07] <nick_> crdlb, i have a link to a folder I created and the name on the link is doucments but i dont know how it got added to my places menu
[08:07] <Flannel> SirOsisOfTheLive: 'gcc' will run it.  It's in your path, you don't need to know precisely where.  But, 'which gcc' will tell you
[08:07] <NickGarvey> SuperTeece, /msg ubotu register
[08:07] <khermans> quaal, what is your error
[08:07] <puff> So, I just installed feisty and I chose "Guided with LVM" at the partition step, but i tnever really gave mea ny options for partitioning.

[08:07] <quaal> khermans.
[08:07] <I_Glitch> Wow..., some of the names of linux software... I sware devs must just slap their keyboards and whatever random letters come out, that's what they name their software.

[08:08] <hot`loaded> can someone introduce me to ubuntu please its better if we do it in private :)
[08:08] <NickGarvey> BeastlyKings, "even more broke?"
[08:09] <I_Glitch> mjbrooks: lol, I know there usually is, but I usually can't for the life of me decide what it is.
[08:09] <Flannel> Ademan: wine won't upgrade to 0.9.33 on it's own.
[08:09] <tyler> later
[08:09] <khermans> hot`loaded, what are you trying to accomplish?
[08:09] <cowbud> fights urge
[08:09] <BeastlyKings> now it just says "disk doesn't exist" or something lke that. I was to mad to remember
[08:09] <Flannel> Ademan: versions of software in ubuntu are frozen, with only security/bugfixes throughout their lifetime.  Which is why, for instance, Dapper, will always have FF1.5, and never 2.0
[08:09] <Ademan> Flannel: yeah, it seems that way, i was wondering if there had been a fix (of the dependencies or something)
[08:09] <tabbot> Ademan: i think wine has official debs for ubuntu (not sure), check their main project -page
[08:09] <Flannel> Ademan: a fix?
[08:10] <khermans> hrmm ubuntu.com http is up, just giving 301
[08:10] <hot`loaded> any help me please
[08:10] <hot`loaded> :(
[08:10] <Ademan> Flannel: the WINE repositories, not the official ubuntu repositories
[08:10] <hot`loaded> :'(
[08:10] <Flannel> Ademan: oh, You'd have to ask in #winehq or something.
[08:10] <SuperTeece> ubuntu crashed?
[08:10] <mike__> 
[08:10] <mjbrooks> I_Glitch, fglrx    Free GL (whatever R stands for) X driver
[08:10] <Ademan> tabbot: they've got their own repository for the newest WINE version, but the newest one (0.9.33) wont install because of some strange dependencies
[08:11] <hot`loaded> :(
[08:11] <Dant1> Why do I get an "Archive Not Supported" error when I try to install the rpm file for my graphics driver?
[08:11] <khermans> hot`loaded, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GOlLJP_Knk
[08:11] <hot`loaded> khermans i watched that already
[08:11] <BeastlyKings> NickGarvey?
[08:11] <tabbot> hot`loaded: introduce you? lol, read the wiki and webpages m8, alsp there are 100's of reviews, check out http://diveintomark.org/archives/2006/06/02/when-the-bough-breaks
[08:11] <hot`loaded> thats why m interested with ubuntu
[08:12] <khermans> ?
[08:12] <Flannel> Dant1: because Ubuntu uses debs, not rpm.  And can't install rpms directly: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto
[08:12] <_stewie> hey guys
[08:12] <Flannel> Dant1: that page will show you how to convert
[08:12] <NickGarvey> BeastlyKings, get my PM?

[08:12] <NickGarvey> freelancer317, dude!
[08:13] <tabbot> Ademan: weird! whats the error u are getting, cause i got no probs with 9.32
[08:13] <theblackhat> iam unable to update my firefox through synaptic package manager
[08:13] <Weems> whenever I run sudo i get "sudo: must be setuid root"
[08:13] <verma> _stewie, so configure it
[08:13] <mjbrooks> ant-, still getting used to this keyboard.... amazing how a few millimeters this way and that can screw you up
[08:13] <Weems> how do I fix it?
[08:13] <_stewie> yout network is probably not using Dhcp protocol. alternatively the dhcp server may be slow or some network hardware is not working properly?
[08:13] <detectiveinspekt> what are some good voice messaging programs for linux, gaim doesn't support any voice talk
[08:13] <khermans> well then just mess around with ubuntu until you break it or until you have another question more specific :-)
[08:13] <_stewie> why is that?
[08:13] <myrddraal> Would appreciate some help with X config
[08:13] <_stewie> i've a wireless lan adapter
[08:13] <verma> _stewie, do you have DHCP server running on your network?
[08:14] <NickGarvey> BeastlyKings, I need to sleep, its 2 in the morning here
[08:14] <Ademan> tabbot: open up your update manager, you should see 0.9.33 but it's not checked (because of the dependency problems i'm talking about)
[08:14] <_stewie> i'm not sure
[08:14] <NickGarvey> BeastlyKings, good luck, but I can't help anymore
[08:14] <myrddraal> I switch monitors and suddenly I can no longer go above 800x600
[08:14] <Flannel> detectiveinspekt: Ekiga (formerly gnomemeeting) supports the H.323 standard
[08:14] <_stewie> Verma, how can i find out?
[08:14] <BeastlyKings> K night
[08:14] <verma> _stewie, it configures itself automatically on other OSes?
[08:14] <detectiveinspekt> Flannel is there a windows version?
[08:14] <theblackhat> anybody there? iam using ubuntu 6.06 and iam unable to update the firefox through synaptic
[08:14] <khermans> hot`loaded, you know?
[08:14] <Flannel> detectiveinspekt: No.  But since it's a standard, there are plenty of windows clients, such as netmeeting.
[08:15] <hot`loaded> khermans i know what?
[08:15] <khermans> hot`loaded, just mess around with ubuntu until you break it or until you have another question more specific :-)
[08:15] <Flannel> theblackhat: What issue you having?
[08:15] <detectiveinspekt> oh thats good thanks.
[08:15] <hot`loaded> khermans i dont have one installed yet
[08:15] <theblackhat> flannel is that your talking about firfox?
[08:15] <hot`loaded> coz m afried if i install it
[08:15] <theblackhat> firefox 1.0.5
[08:16] <hot`loaded> i wont be able to do anything about it?
[08:16] <_stewie> actually i got laptop a few months ago
[08:16] <theblackhat> ubuntu 6.06 LTS
[08:16] <myrddraal> I can no longer select a resolution above 800x600 but my xorg.conf is set for higher
[08:16] <mirra> offtopic: do you guys know any good affiliate programs that techies would be interested in
[08:16] <_stewie> but as far as i know i've tried ubuntu live and my internet did work fine
[08:16] <mirra> ?
[08:16] <Flannel> theblackhat: 1.0.5?  You sure you're on Dapper? with 1.0.5?
[08:16] <theblackhat> yes of corse
[08:16] <Flannel> theblackhat: 1.0.X is Breezy, or 1.5 is Dapper
[08:16] <quaal> Why am i getting mkraid /dev/md0
[08:16] <quaal> bash: mkraid: command not found
[08:17] <khermans> hot`loaded, then download the vmware version
[08:17] <khermans> vmware server is free to use
[08:17] <theblackhat> yeah it is 1.5
[08:17] <hot`loaded> khermans how?
[08:17] <verma> _stewie, what is your wireless interface called? .. iwconfig
[08:17] <Flannel> theblackhat: right, and what are you trying to upgrade to?
[08:17] <khermans> hot`loaded, you on windows?
[08:17] <theblackhat> firefox 2
[08:17] <khermans> hot`loaded, http://www.vmware.com/download/server/
[08:18] <hot`loaded> khermans even if i am using windows xp
[08:18] <hot`loaded> ill be able to install that?
[08:18] <khermans> yes
[08:18] <Flannel> theblackhat: Alright.  In Ubuntu, versions of software (such as FF 1.5) are frozen.  Dapper will always have 1.5, and never will upgrade to 2.0.  If you want 2.0, you have a few options, upgrading to Edgy is probably what you want
[08:18] <hot`loaded> khermans yes i am on windows
[08:18] <khermans> hot`loaded, yes so install it
[08:18] <ant-> hot`loaded : just use the livecd to test ubuntu on your system, you dont have to install it to use it.
[08:18] <_stewie> verma may i pm you?
[08:18] <hot`loaded> ant- how can i get one?
[08:19] <theblackhat> oh thanq flannel
[08:19] <ant-> hot`loaded : download it.
[08:19] <verma> _stewie, talking here has a better chance on getting your problem solved, so talk here.
[08:19] <hot`loaded> ant- how an i get a live cd?
[08:19] <ant-> hot`loaded : or order one

[08:19] <BeastlyKings> Well, Its off to buy a new XP cd, I can't boot this one
[08:19] <hot`loaded> ant- how do i donwload it?
[08:19] <ant-> !install | hot`loaded

[08:20] <ant-> hot`loaded : if you dont want to download it, just order a cd
[08:20] <SpeedyIndy> can i upgrade to the fiesty beta using my edgy install?
[08:20] <verma> _stewie, yes, tell me the name of your wireless interface .. you can use the iwconfig command to find which one it is
[08:20] <ant-> hot`loaded : ubuntu.com
[08:20] <ant-> or
[08:20] <Flannel> !upgrade | SpeedyIndy
[08:20] <ubotu> SpeedyIndy: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:20] <ant-> !install | hot`loaded

[08:20] <_stewie> linksys
[08:20] <verma> fiesty is still beta .. isn't it?
[08:21] <rageprblm> How do I install an rpm installer? I dont understand how to use a .tar.gz file to install a program
[08:21] <verma> _stewie, no, I need the interface name .. wlan0, eth1 or eth0
[08:21] <mjbrooks> verma, yes   beta and beautiful
[08:21] <hot`loaded> will i still be able to use my printer after installing ubuntu?
[08:21] <verma> _stewie, use the iwconfig command
[08:21] <khermans> verma, ive used feisty since january
[08:21] <RagePrblm> Im in feisty right now, it certainly is pretty
[08:21] <khermans> verma, 64-bit, no real issues
[08:21] <ant-> hot`loaded : get the livecd and test it.
[08:21] <transgress_> hey is there an option somewhere to change the gdm sound that is made when it starts up?
[08:22] <ant-> hot`loaded : you dont have to install it at first
[08:22] <verma> mjbrooks, beautiful :) .. I am trying kde4 developmental snap shot .. that should be beautiful
[08:22] <Flannel> RagePrblm: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto
[08:22] <Schalken> !mencoder
[08:22] <_stewie> verma where do i use that command?
[08:22] <hot`loaded> ant- let me check ubuntu.com
[08:22] <ubotu> mencoder: MPlayer's Movie Encoder. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 2:0.99+1.0pre8-0ubuntu8 (edgy), package size 3171 kB, installed size 7956 kB
[08:22] <RagePrblm> Thank you flannel, I appreciate your help
[08:22] <verma> khermans, ah nice ...
[08:22] <verma> _stewie, in a console window
[08:23] <Schalken> Does anyone know of an easy to use video converter?
[08:23] <mjbrooks> verma, when is that set to be released?
[08:23] <hot`loaded> ant- and ill go to the download section?
[08:23] <BeastlyKings> Really quick question: Can I just get rid of Ubuntu on this PC and let windows be the main OS without f#@%ing it up anymore than it already is?
[08:23] <ant-> hot`loaded : your asking obvious questions now
[08:23] <verma> mjbrooks, not sure .. somewhere around this year end ..
[08:23] <Flannel> BeastlyKings: yes.  Get a windows CD, and 'fixmbr', to restore your windows bootloader.
[08:23] <hot`loaded> ant- i mean i am looking for the live version
[08:23] <mjbrooks> verma, *sigh*
[08:23] <ant-> hot`loaded : i know, i told you to get that.
[08:24] <BeastlyKings> Can't I just delete the Ubuntu partition?
[08:24] <verma> aha, download complete, I am off to configuring it :D
[08:24] <hot`loaded> ant- will i still be able to use my printers and scanners
[08:24] <malek> does anyone know how to find out what application is using a certain device?  JACK won't start up because it can't access  hw:0 because some other program is using it.  I can't find that program though
[08:24] <hot`loaded> ant- for example i get rid of my windows and run linux?
[08:24] <anirudha> I just upgraded to Ubuntu 7.04 Fiesty Fawn, and it is great! The newest release of OpenOffice is soooooo much better. Ubuntu 7.04 = Even More Reasons To Ditch Windows!
[08:24] <Flannel> BeastlyKings: That's what you'll do to get rid of the Ubuntu OS, yes.  But the problm is then you'll be removing GRUB, so you'll have no bootloader.  You have to reinstall the XP bootloader.
[08:25] <BeastlyKings> Hmm... thats bad because I have no XP cd...
[08:25] <mjbrooks> anirudha, you do know that Feisty is still in beta   right?
[08:25] <khermans> hot`loaded, you can use printers and scanners in linux
[08:25] <ant-> hot`loaded : yes you can use printers in linux, whethers yours will work out of the box i cant answer
[08:25] <khermans> scanner support may be hit or miss
[08:25] <albacker> i know i should be in #ubuntu+1 but noone is answering there.. i just upgraded to feisty, and CTRL+[left|right]  arrow prints ;C5 and ;D5 even though, everything's right (talking about the bindings) in /etc/inputrc.. any idea ? thank you
[08:25] <anirudha> jbrooks, yes
[08:25] <hot`loaded> ant- or i need to download special drivers for that?
[08:26] <albacker> it should go backwards and forwards one word !
[08:26] <ant-> hot`loaded : you can dualboot linux and windows if you want
[08:26] <transgress_> how is it no one knows how to change the startup sound for gdm?
[08:26] <BeastlyKings> How do I fix my gub loader to load winows again?
[08:26] <I_Glitch> How do I change proxy settings via a command line?
[08:26] <I_Glitch> Anyone?
[08:27] <mjbrooks> I_Glitch, can you be more specific?
[08:27] <Adamantinus> Is there a HowTo somewhere for getting dual head working in Edgy Eft?
[08:27] <ant-> probly in #ubuntu-effects
[08:27] <BeastlyKings> How do I fix my gub loader to load windows again?
[08:28] <I_Glitch> Umm... I 'm testing ubuntu out, right now I only have the server edition, I want to play with it, but I can't get the internet connection to work, I think all I need is to play with proxy settings.
[08:28] <ant-> !grub | BeastlyKings
[08:28] <ubotu> BeastlyKings: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:28] <I_Glitch> But It's server edition, so I only have a command line.
[08:28] <anirudha> Adamantinus, Are you trying to dual boot Ubuntu 6.10 with Windows XP?
[08:28] <Flannel> BeastlyKings: if you can get windows to boot, you can burn a restore disk, I believe.
[08:28] <I_Glitch> And the only way I can find to configure it is to reinstall.
[08:28] <durkaji> im installing ubuntu right now and i choose the partition i want for / but it keeps saying "no root filesystem"
[08:29] <BeastlyKings> Flannel: Could I use some one else XP for that? Like on there computer at there house I make the disk and bring it back?
[08:29] <happytron> anyone know a proggy that pipes its standard input into the clipboard and vice versa? (like getclip/putclip in cygwin)
[08:29] <CrAsH_0vEr> if you want to load grub on dual boot, simple start with the cd #1
[08:29] <SuperTeece> BeastlyKings: sudo grub
[08:29] <SuperTeece> root (hd0,1)
[08:29] <SuperTeece> setup (hd0)
[08:29] <SuperTeece> quit
[08:29] <anirudha> Adamantinus, If so, then I think I can help you.
[08:30] <CrAsH_0vEr> it has a tool tha fix the mbr
[08:30] <mjbrooks> I_Glitch, are you getting an IP address?
[08:30] <CrAsH_0vEr> t
[08:30] <krista> verma i can't figure out
[08:30] <krista> :<
[08:30] <I_Glitch> mjbrooks: my IP address is manually configured
[08:30] <Flannel> BeastlyKings: believe so, yes.
[08:30] <verma> krista, figure out what?
[08:30] <krista> window console or whatever you said
[08:30] <krista> lol
[08:31] <verma> _stewie?
[08:31] <verma> oh lol
[08:31] <BeastlyKings> K, I'll try that later. I did sudo grub... now what?
[08:31] <mjbrooks> I_Glitch, you manually configured it?
[08:31] <krista> yes
[08:31] <SuperTeece> root (hd0,1)
[08:31] <SuperTeece> setup (hd0)
[08:31] <SuperTeece> quit
[08:31] <verma> krista, you are in windows right now?
[08:31] <SuperTeece> enter after each line
[08:31] <krista> my deskptop is on xp
[08:31] <krista> yes
[08:31] <I_Glitch> mjbrooks: yes
[08:31] <krista> i'm install ubuntu on my laptop
[08:31] <krista> and i got that network configure msg thing
[08:31] <mjbrooks> I_Glitch, did you remember to specify your gateway?
[08:32] <I_Glitch> mjbrooks: yes.
[08:32] <BeastlyKings> SuperTeece: was that info fr me?
[08:32] <verma> krista, boot into ubuntu ... open a command window KDE Menu->System->Konsole. Then type iwconfig and tell me what it lists
[08:32] <SuperTeece> that should reset grub to give the option for both.. I think
[08:32] <SuperTeece> BeastlyKings: yes, it worked for me a while back in a similar situation
[08:33] <krista> mm
[08:33] <krista> ok
[08:33] <verma> krista, are you running ubuntu or kubuntu?
[08:33] <SuperTeece> afk
[08:33] <krista> ubuntu
[08:33] <krista> can boot via live cd and tell you?
[08:33] <krista> or you want me to boot via install cd?
[08:33] <verma> krista, not necessary
[08:33] <krista> ok
[08:34] <verma> krista, don't need to have your link working to figure .. it will show
[08:34] <BeastlyKings> SuperTeece: So... I did that, typed in those commands.. is it fixed? close to being fixed?
[08:34] <BeastlyKings> SHould I reboot?
[08:34] <verma> can someone tell krista where the terminal program is in gnome?
[08:34] <SuperTeece> BeatlyKings: only a reboot will tell for sure
[08:34] <BeastlyKings> K thanks
[08:34] <anirudha> krista, applications->accessories->terminal
[08:35] <hot`loaded> ant- i choose ubuntu 6.10 and i386 is that correct?
[08:35] <SuperTeece> well my Feisty install is done, I'm off to test, night all
[08:35] <krista> ok
 Adamantinus, Are you trying to dual boot Ubuntu 6.10 with Windows XP? <-- I'm already doing that successfully. I want to use dual monitors. Not dual OSes.
[08:35] <verma> terminal is an accessory in gnome .. wow!
[08:36] <I_Glitch> lol
[08:36] <anirudha> Adamantinus, Oh okay, ... sorry I can't help you there.
[08:36] <hot`loaded> ant- i choose ubuntu 6.10 and i386 is that correct?
[08:36] <Flannel> !dualhead | Adamantinus
[08:36] <ubotu> Adamantinus: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[08:36] <verma> Adamantinus, I have dual monitors :) .. but they are a bitch :) .. I can paste my xorg.conf if you want to take a look
[08:36] <anirudha> verma, yes it is! =)
[08:37] <I_Glitch> hot`loaded, most likely, yes.
[08:37] <verma> accessories are "come play with me" things .. terminal is pretty serious stuff :)
[08:37] <msingh> is it a FAQ topic to express incredulity at the name?
[08:37] <[Tuxedo] > verma it's still fun to play with, none the less.
[08:37] <[Tuxedo] >  :p
[08:37] <verma> krista, have you been able to locate your terminal?
[08:37] <hot`loaded> I_Glitch thanks
[08:38] <krista> i'm loading ubuntu right now
[08:38] <alex__> i have used windows for a long time, what would be a way of changing video settings such as refresh rates in ubuntu?
[08:38] <hot`loaded> i need to wait for like almost 3 hours for this
[08:38] <verma> [Tuxedo] , sure it is .. till you get to one of those bad days :)
[08:38] <BeastlyKings> SuperTeece: no go, sorry
[08:38] <[Tuxedo] > alex__ look in system -> prefrences
[08:38] <verma> brb
[08:38] <[Tuxedo] > Under Screen Resolution :)
[08:38] <alex__> thanks
[08:39] <alex__> i just set up two monitors with twinview
[08:39] <[Tuxedo] > verma I had like 3 bad weeks after I installed Ubuntu... I'm afraid to install my cd-rw and dvd-rw now :P
[08:39] <alex__> and i can up the refresh rate
[08:39] <hot`loaded> why is it saying cannot display webpage for ubuntu.com?
[08:39] <[Tuxedo] > I think you can in xorg.conf
[08:39] <[Tuxedo] > hot'loaded I think they are under Digg effect at the moment.
[08:40] <epi> Hmm...is ubuntu the most popular distro?
[08:40] <crimsun> some say so.
[08:40] <[Tuxedo] > Not necsicarrily (however the hell you spell it :P)
[08:40] <Flannel> hot`loaded: server problems, it seems.  Not on your end necessarily.
[08:40] <mjbrooks> epi, according to distrowatch  yes
[08:40] <hase> I finally got my own laptop, so I can use ubuntu again, and i'm just wondering where to get xfce
[08:41] <[Tuxedo] > google is your friend.
[08:41] <anirudha> epi, the gnome graphics look good and the update manager is great!
[08:41] <crdlb> hase, install xubuntu-desktop
[08:41] <verma> not much eye-candy with kde4 yet
[08:41] <hase> thanks crdlb
[08:41] <dark_light> epi, ubuntu is the most popular distro in terms of, hmmm, 'hype' and downloads at distrowatch. but it isn't the most used distro (specially at servers)
[08:41] <[Tuxedo] > Anyone recommend any free games for Ubuntu?
[08:41] <mjbrooks> verma, that's okay,  beryl has plenty to keep me busy

[08:42] <epi> Tuxedo, the benefits of unix are that your immune to warez!
[08:42] <[Tuxedo] > Thanks Flannel :)
[08:42] <anirudha> Tuxedo, bzflags is a very fun multiplayer shooting game!
[08:42] <verma> mjbrooks, yeah .. right .. I just want these stupid widgets to look nicer :)
[08:42] <mjbrooks> [Tuxedo] , yes,  I reccommend ALL of them   lol
[08:42] <anirudha> [Tuxedo] , bzflags is a very fun multiplayer shooting game!
[08:42] <epi> Spent the morning merrily downloading with zero problems.
[08:42] <[Tuxedo] > crdlb any type, really, I just need something to fill the time while burning/ripping :)
[08:42] <Carsten-> hi guys im attempting to install 7.04 on one of my pc's but when I try to do so it modprobes for a non existant floppy drive during installation, has anyone else has this issue?
[08:43] <[Tuxedo] > I've found Linux to be ulitimately superior when it comes to file sharing of any kind, which is why I switched to it.
[08:43] <Weems> why does sudo insist on being setuid root... it wont let me just type in my password and go
[08:43] <crdlb> [Tuxedo] , I find lbreakout2 (and ltris) oddly satisfying
[08:43] <verma> nice, doom3 on linux :D
[08:43] <[Tuxedo] > Weems try just using su and then doing the commands?
[08:43] <dark_light> [Tuxedo] , i like freeciv. and, hmmm, armagetron too. some say about enemy territory and cube, but i don't like too much
[08:43] <crdlb> [Tuxedo] , don't forget about the quake3 demo
[08:44] <[Tuxedo] > As long as the terminal stays open it keeps you logged in as root
[08:44] <dark_light> ps: oops, enemy territory isn't free
[08:44] <dark_light> cube seems to be
[08:44] <[Tuxedo] > Enemy Territory is free
[08:44] <[Tuxedo] > I play it on my XP comp all the time :P
[08:44] <Weems> [Tuxedo] : doesnt work
[08:44] <Flannel> [Tuxedo] : Weems, don't use su.  If you want to open a root shell, use `sudo -i`
[08:44] <dark_light> fine:)
[08:44] <Weems> thats just it
[08:44] <Weems> I cant
[08:44] <Flannel> Weems: why not?
[08:45] <anirudha> Carstern, Do you currently run Ubuntu 6.10?
[08:45] <Weems> it says setuid root everytime
[08:45] <verma> playing games on  a computer and then making your computer capable of playing upcoming games is an expensive affair, buy a console
[08:45] <Flannel> dark_light: su would require you to enable the root account, and there's no reason to do so.
[08:45] <Weems> sudo: must be setuid root
[08:45] <Carsten-> On this computer, yes.
[08:45] <dark_light> Flannel, well, I may want to log directly as root
[08:45] <verma> and then, bullshit updates, missing drivers and that feeling of not having the best .. it all sucks
[08:45] <epi> Pcs = Better RPG's, MMO's and much better Strategy.
[08:45] <Flannel> Weems: you did some chmodding, didn't you
[08:45] <Weems> maybe
[08:45] <Weems> I changed a folder
[08:46] <[Tuxedo] > lol
[08:46] <Flannel> Weems: usr/bin?
[08:46] <Weems> maybe i accidentally did all of them
[08:46] <anirudha> Carstern, If so then just execute the command: "update-manager -d" and it will take you through the upgrade steps for Ubuntu 7.04
[08:46] <Weems> yeah for bittornado
[08:46] <crdlb> Weems, which folder / ?
[08:46] <Weems> but I thought I did just one folder
[08:46] <Flannel> Weems: mhmm.  Right.  That's... stupid.  You've just broken your system.  Well, most likely.
[08:46] <anirudha> Carstern, BTW upgrading with DSL connection takes around 1-2hrs
[08:46] <crdlb> Weems, did you use chmod -R ?
[08:46] <Weems> no
[08:46] <Flannel> Weems: then what?
[08:46] <Weems> chmod 777
[08:46] <Carsten-> ok, but I don't want to upgrade this computer yet until the full release comes out i'd rather install it on another computer
[08:47] <Flannel> Weems: right, but what did you chmod?
[08:47] <crdlb> Weems, thne you couldn't have done that much damage
[08:47] <Weems> I thought I was inside the folder for Bittornado
[08:47] <Carsten-> when the install prog runs it crashes on a modprob to a floppy drive that pc has never had
[08:47] <Weems> I guess I wasnt
[08:47] <Flannel> Weems: what did you do? and where?
[08:47] <anirudha> Carsten-, Oh ... okay ... but I thought the 7.04 version has not come out yet?
[08:47] <Carsten-> ive got the iso burnt to cd
[08:47] <Weems> /usr/bin
[08:47] <Carsten-> not full, the beta
[08:47] <Flannel> Weems: You chdmodded it 777?
[08:48] <Carsten-> thats why i dont want to install it on this pc yet i just want to see whats new
[08:48] <anirudha> Carsten-, so what is exactly the problem?
[08:48] <mjbrooks> er,  I mean   ouch
[08:48] <Weems> sudo chmod 777 /home/weems/.BitTornado *
[08:48] <Weems>  <-- I did this earlier
[08:48] <Weems> not sure if that affected anything
[08:48] <mjbrooks> Doh!!   I see a space in there
[08:48] <Flannel> Weems: that asterisk worries me.
[08:48] <Carsten-> when I run the installation from the iso, the system modprobes for /dev/fd0 then crashes will not go any further
[08:49] <Weems> and I did this : sudo chmod 777 python btdownloadgui.py
[08:49] <Flannel> Weems: You're probably better off reinstalling.
[08:49] <Weems> but I dont think that couldve done anything
[08:49] <Weems> bah
[08:49] <Carsten-> Ive tried enabling / disabling fd in bios to no avail
[08:49] <mjbrooks> Weems, perhaps you mean to type 'sudo chmod 777 /home/weems/.BitTornado/*'
[08:49] <Weems> will I lose my files
[08:49] <Weems> yeah
[08:49] <Flannel> Weems: back them up
[08:49] <Weems> before it gave me an invalid file error
[08:49] <Weems> so thats when I did the space
[08:49] <Flannel> Weems: if you're in your home folder, there's no reason to use sudo.
[08:49] <hot`loaded> is there something like microsoft excel and microsoft access in ubuntu?
[08:49] <Flannel> Weems: as, you own everything.
[08:49] <Weems> ok
[08:50] <Weems> yeah
[08:50] <anirudha> Carsten-, my advice is to then install 6.10 on the other computer then upgrade using the command "update-manager -d"
[08:50] <Flannel> hot`loaded: OOo has a spreadsheet program, and Access has... well, a number of *real* databases.
[08:50] <Weems> but the python files wouldnt let me run them
[08:50] <mjbrooks> hot`loaded, openoffice
[08:50] <Carsten-> hmmmm ill give it a try
[08:50] <cyclopse> hi all
[08:50] <crdlb> Weems, were you in /usr/bin when you ran that command?
[08:50] <Weems> yeah
[08:50] <cyclopse> i use kubuntu 6.06 LTS
[08:50] <Weems> not the one for home
[08:50] <[Tuxedo] > Are there any flash web development programs for linux?
[08:50] <hot`loaded> Flannel and do i need to download the access/database programs?
[08:50] <corevette> hello cyclopse
[08:50] <Weems> but the btdownloadgui.py one yeah
[08:50] <cyclopse> where is the kernel headers located?
[08:51] <wafro> anyone know why #include <linux/module.h> is telling me mach_mpspec.h is missing?
[08:51] <Carsten-> it seems to be a kernel thing tho so im wondering if it will just do the same thing when i've updated it.
[08:51] <Flannel> hot`loaded: you'll need to install them, yeah.  And pick one.  If you want one of those GUI sorts of things, MySQL has one I believe.
[08:51] <Toma-> [Tuxedo] : flash studio works fine in wine
[08:51] <crimsun> cyclopse: I answered that in -kernel already.
[08:51] <[Tuxedo] > Toma- Okay, thank you! :)
[08:51] <crdlb> Weems, yeah, you need to reinstall, setting every program in /usr/bin/ to the proper permissions would be impossible
[08:52] <cyclopse> i need its size bcoz i got a very sow conxn
[08:52] <cyclopse> slo
[08:52] <cyclopse> slow
[08:53] <cyclopse> hey crimsun
[08:53] <anirudha> Carsten-, Btw, I upgraded to 7.04 Beta today ... top 3 new things I noticed are, 1. new background,  2. wireless internet setup software, and 3. latest OpenOffice.
[08:53] <Flannel> Weems: next time you run into an issue with permissions, don't chmod.  There's probably a better/safer alternative.  chmod is a hammer, very few things are nails.
[08:54] <Ashbringer> !x86_64
[08:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about x86_64 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:54] <Ashbringer> !64
[08:54] <crdlb> Weems, particular never use the -R switch or * with chmod

[08:57] <mjbrooks> foo, yes   from the CD right?
[08:57] <epi> May sound silly...but is there any mouse smoothing programs for ubuntu?

[08:59] <hase> parted?
[08:59] <mjbrooks> hase, VLC

[09:00] <albacker> shatrat, thnx
[09:00] <hase> ahh

[09:00] <alucard> dude, im trying to compile the nvidia driver from nvidia.com but it says my ubuntu dist doesnt have libc header files installed
[09:00] <ShayGuy> I'm having trouble installing the OS. (6.10)
[09:00] <crdlb> alucard, why would you want to do that?
[09:00] <shatrat> alucard, you need to install some dependencies
[09:00] <ShayGuy> It keeps getting hung up on partitions.
[09:01] <shatrat> alucard, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Edgy#METHOD_2 here is a guide for installing manually
[09:01] <mjbrooks> hase, I believe you can get it through the the repositories
[09:01] <dark_light> hase, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[09:01] <ShayGuy> Every time I try to shrink /dev/hda1, I get an error.
[09:01] <hase> thanks everyone!
[09:02] <crdlb> alucard, just use the repository at : http://albertomilone.com/driver.html
[09:02] <shatrat> alucard, nvm that, the website is down. here is the google cache, http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:33EYanaDB1IJ:doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Edgy+http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Edgy&hl=en&client=firefox-a&strip=1
[09:02] <I_Glitch> Can I upgrade clear from breezy to edgy using apt-get upgrade?
[09:03] <Flannel> I_Glitch: You'll have to go through Dapper
[09:03] <shatrat> I_Glitch, sure, but only 1 step at a time
[09:03] <I_Glitch> Breezy, Dapper, Edgey, and Feisty..., what happened to C?
[09:04] <Flannel> I_Glitch: only after Dapper did they decide to go alphabetical
[09:04] <shatrat> I_Glitch, it isnt strictly aphabetical, look at hoary hedghog
[09:04] <I_Glitch> Oh, lol.
[09:05] <crdlb> I_Glitch, they are going alphabetical from now on though
[09:05] <ShayGuy> So what about my hard drive?
[09:05] <crdlb> but they may skip other letters
[09:05] <mjbrooks> yeah   like H  since they already
[09:05] <mjbrooks> used it
[09:06] <I_Glitch> When they get to H, they going to do Hoary revisited? ;)
[09:06] <I_Glitch> Oops, lol, you beat me to it.
[09:07] <[Tuxedo] > Will Flash Pro 8 work on Ubuntu under wine?
[09:07] <shatrat> appdb.winehq.org  <--look it up
[09:07] <xf`>  when i tried installing mysql-server, it says it cannot, because it needs mysql-server-5.0 however mysql-server-5.0 isn't configured yet. How do I configure mysql-server-5.0 please?
[09:08] <I_Glitch> Wine huh, have to get ubuntu drunk so it'll act like windows? :p
[09:08] <bluecat9> Q: How do I make a second hard disk which is formatted with NTFS auto-mount on boot? (hd1?)
[09:08] <Krista> verma there?
[09:08] <verma> Krista, yeah
[09:08] <shatrat> A: add it to your /etc/fstab
[09:08] <cyphase> Why does Banshee 0.12 insist on putting podcasts in the music directory, thereby making them show up in the "Music Library"? There's a gconf option in /apps/banshee/plugins/podcast/ called podcast_library, but Banshee doesn't respect this option. Any thoughts?
[09:08] <Ashbringer> I_Glitch: next thing you know, it'll be pinging ex-girlfriend servers and moving everything into kernel space
[09:09] <ShayGuy> I'm having trouble installing the OS. (6.10)
[09:09] <ShayGuy> It keeps getting hung up on partitions.
[09:09] <bluecat9> shatrat, thx --send Q: How do i mount it? :) : mount blah ?
[09:09] <EdgEy> what's the error message ShayGuy
[09:09] <I_Glitch> Ashbringer: I'm sure that's funny but I don't get it.  I must not be advanced enough.
[09:10] <bluecat9> *send = second
[09:10] <shatrat> bluecat9, add this line, /dev/hda1                                  /mnt/windows    ntfs         nls=utf8,umask=0222                                                           0  0  and it should mount automatically. Youll have to create /mnt/windows
[09:10] <shatrat> eww, ugly
[09:10] <bluecat9> shatrat, ty ty ty
[09:10] <shatrat> anyway, thats the line from my fstab so it must work amirite?
[09:10] <dj-ex> Q: i boot to a ubuntu live cd it starts to load with the bar movingback and forth on the screen it then hangs up anyone have any ideas why
[09:10] <Krista> verma i'm in terminal server client.
[09:11] <verma> Krista, that's not what you want .. the terminal program .. it should open a black or white colored window
[09:12] <Krista> oh k
[09:12] <Krista> its white now.
[09:12] <I_Glitch> Krista: It's a command prompt, kinda like MSDOS in Windows.
[09:12] <verma> Krista, nice ... run the iwconfig command now
[09:13] <Krista> ok
[09:13] <mjbrooks> dj-ex, what kind of system is it?  a laptop?
[09:13] <Krista> lo no wireless entenseions
[09:13] <Krista> etho no wireless extension
[09:13] <dj-ex> no pc
[09:13] <Krista> witO no wireless extensions
[09:13] <ShayGuy> Okay, I tell it to change the partitions: "The following operation could not be...Resize /dev/hda1 from...See the details..."
[09:13] <Krista> sit0* sorry
[09:13] <quaal> You might also want to experiment with the chunk size (eg. 8, 16, 32, 64, 128). Use a harddisk benchmark to check or stay with the default of 64k chunk size.
[09:13] <verma> Krista, is that all?
[09:13] <quaal> how do i determine the HD chunksize
[09:13] <Krista> yes
[09:13] <quaal> or is this not necessary
[09:14] <verma> Krista, what wireless card do you have?
[09:14] <Krista> Airlink
[09:14] <mjbrooks> dj-ex, have you tried using the safe video option?
[09:14] <dj-ex> no
[09:14] <Krista> 802 11g usb adapter
[09:15] <dj-ex> ill have to try it
[09:15] <alucard> im likin ubuntu, it supported my sound right away
[09:15] <ShayGuy> And in the details, there's "resize the filesystem->run simulation->ntfsresive -P --force --force /dev/hda1 -s..."
[09:15] <dj-ex> if it doesnt work i will return
[09:16] <ShayGuy> "...-s 22649405440 --no-action". And under that...some more stuff.
[09:17] <ShayGuy> Including "ERROR: Extended record needed (1176 > 1024), not yet supported! Please try to free less space."
[09:18] <D0wN> is there a command that shows what partition I'm booting off of?
[09:20] <kane`> where are the java libraries stored?
[09:21] <epi> Guys quick question, I just dled a Ubuntu, could you confirm that "Release i386" is 32bit?
[09:21] <GekiBlue> Something weird just happened you guys... I restarted, and the loading screen went part way and then scrolled a bunch of stuff at me... and then it said 'can't kill process pid 1803: process not found' or something... I restarted again and everything loaded fine :3
[09:21] <hase> Is there a way to display system information, like how much RAM I have and the internal temperature?
[09:21] <I_Glitch> epi: i386 is 32 bit
[09:21] <epi> Thank yee.
[09:21] <I_Glitch> ipt: AMD64 is 64bit
[09:22] <I_Glitch> Oops, epi:
[09:22] <I_Glitch> That's what I get for typing while I'm eating.
[09:22] <kane`> eating is for suckers.
[09:22] <Shrimpy_> i was wonderfing if there was a way to search for a file on the whole harddrive
[09:22] <kane`> real men starve
[09:22] <epi> Im on an amd 64bit, but I want the 32bit operating system. i386 should work correct?
[09:23] <I_Glitch> epi: should.
[09:23] <GekiBlue> And now my Frostwire won't work :(
[09:24] <epi> Then I shall smoke a ciggarette, clean myself up, and buy some blank CD's.
[09:24] <ShayGuy> So, then - my HDD?
[09:24] <dj-ex> it does the same thing as before starts the bar across the screen then just stops
[09:24] <catid> when i press the volume keys on my keyboard, what's the name of the program that shows the volume?
[09:24] <I_Glitch> kane`: I tried that, it sucks.

[09:26] <tommy>  my screen resolution is stuck at 680 x 420, it doesnt let me select any other options, how can i fix this
[09:26] <mr_grump5> alternative for dr.divx in ubuntu?
[09:26] <pissedoffdude> @tommy what kind of video card do you have?
[09:26] <I_Glitch> tommy: 420 huh, it must be on something.
[09:26] <Rimbo> What is the password for the user account "ubuntu" on the live CD?
[09:26] <crdlb> mr_grump5, mencoder (you're looking for a video encoder right?)
[09:26] <Rimbo> (this would be Edgy Eft, Kubuntu 6.10)
[09:26] <tommy> ati 200xpress
[09:27] <crdlb> mr_grump5, it's command line based, but it has numerous frontends
[09:28] <Rimbo> Hello?
[09:28] <Rimbo> Hello!
[09:28] <mr_grump5> crdlb:ye..does it have all the functionalities of dr divx?
[09:28] <Rimbo> So this is a stumper.
[09:28] <kvirc-ubuntu> hi guys.
[09:28] <tommy> pissedoffdude, ati radeon xpress 200
[09:28] <GekiBlue> Oh, I just had to update java or summat... How keen. :3
[09:29] <Rimbo> I'm running Kubuntu 6.10 live, and hit the "lock screen" button
[09:29] <I_Glitch> You know, I'd love to help you guys but...
[09:29] <kvirc-ubuntu> do we have beryl in the repositories?
[09:29] <Rimbo> Now I can't log back in.
[09:29] <I_Glitch> I'm an even bigger noob then you are.
[09:29] <I_Glitch> lol
[09:29] <Shrimpy_> hello, i've used the search thing that's located in the menu of places. and i can only search a folder at a time. is there a way just to make it search the whole hard drive?
[09:29] <Rimbo> what is the password for the "ubuntu" account on the Live CD?
[09:29] <pandoras>  #ubnuntu-de
[09:29] <crdlb> mr_grump5, mencoder with xvid is an extremely cabable video encoder, but it's a bit intimidating, which is why I'd suggest you find a graphical frontend
[09:29] <pissedoffdude> @tommy have you installed the proper drivers for it?
[09:29] <[Tuxedo] > password probably
[09:29] <Rimbo> hello
[09:29] <mr_grump5> crdlb:wht abt dvd rips?
[09:30] <Rimbo> Tuxedo:  Nope.
[09:30] <mr_grump5> crdlb:any suggestions for front end>
[09:30] <Rimbo> Tuxedo: So far I've tried:  ubuntu, edgyeft, "edgy eft" (minus quotes), nothing, password, ubuntu, kubuntu
[09:30] <exs> what app is this? http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/images/listen.jpg
[09:30] <tommy> no, but last time i installed ubuntu on this computer i went through this hour long terminal questionaire and it fixed my problem to an extent
[09:30] <tommy> where would i find the drivers compatible with ubuntu?
[09:30] <dj-ex> my ubuntu live cd starts then when it gets to the screen where theabr moves back and forth it hangs after it goes by one or two times cananyone help?
[09:30] <crdlb> mr_grump5, I just use it directly
[09:30] <pissedoffdude> try the envy script
[09:30] <vimalg1> Any good usable frontends for mencoder
[09:30] <crdlb> mr_grump5, and yes it can rip dvd's
[09:31] <pissedoffdude> it will detect the model of your graphics card and isntall the proper drivers
[09:31] <Rimbo> but I missed it.
[09:31] <tommy> pissedoffdude, envy script?
[09:31] <pissedoffdude> let me get a link
[09:31] <crdlb> tommy, what video card?
[09:31] <vimalg1> any suggestions
[09:31] <tommy> thanks
[09:32] <ShayGuy> ShayGuy>	And in the details, there's "resize the filesystem->run simulation->ntfsresive -P --force --force /dev/hda1 -s..."

[09:33] <vimalg1> Can anyone tell me if its possible to mount the following: 1)ext3 partition containing music mounted as /home/media/songs   AND an ext3 partition mounted at /home?
[09:33] <dj-ex> my ubuntu live cd starts then when it gets to the screen where the bar moves back and forth it hangs after it goes by one or two times cananyone help?
[09:33] <MindRiot> hey whats the offtopic channel ?
[09:34] <tommy> pissedoffdude, i think i've found a solution, i was looking on ubuntu forums and someone had the same problem, they ran this command" dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and it worked
[09:34] <vimalg1> Can anyone tell me if its possible to mount the following: 1)ext3 partition containing music mounted as /home/media/songs   AND an ext3 partition mounted at /home?
[09:34] <Rimbo> dj-ex: can you hit "esc" while it's booting?
[09:34] <Rimbo> dj-ex: also, are you booting into "safe graphics mode?"
[09:34] <epkphoto> vimalg1: yes, I believe you can do that
[09:34] <dj-ex> ive tried both reguilar and safe graphics mode
[09:34] <dj-ex> it does the same thing
[09:34] <pissedoffdude> @tommy make sure u type "sudo" before that or else it won't give you permission
[09:34] <vimalg1> BillGates: My microsoft mice all work flawlessly in Edgy
[09:35] <MindRiot> EDGY FTW
[09:35] <epi> Really? Mine seems jittery. I was searching for something to smooth it a little.
[09:35] <vimalg1> epkphoto: thanks a bunch
[09:35] <Gowtham> Hey new to ubuntu IRC
[09:35] <dj-ex> and what would i do after i hit esc Rimbo
[09:35] <alucard> how do i stop gdm from auto loading on startup
[09:35] <hase> So, I'm reading these instructions, and it says to type sudo apt-get lm-senors into the terminal, which I understand, but what confuses me is it says Create file called mkdev.sh, and paste in the following and I don't know how to just "create" a file
[09:36] <Rimbo> Well, I'm not one of the experts here, but I'm hoping it'll switch you to a text mode and show you what it's doing while booting
[09:36] <dj-ex> ill try it
[09:36] <Rimbo> And that should give you some idea why it's hanging.
[09:36] <alucard> how do I stop gdm from autoexecing on startup
[09:36] <dj-ex> ty i shall return
[09:36] <Rimbo> dj-ex: Is the computer connected to the internet on boot?
[09:37] <Aishe> rawr gabriel , rawr
[09:37] <Gowtham> has anyone here tried Feisty Beta
[09:37] <vimalg1> Can someone tell me if its better advised to use aptitude for all repository-related operations right from the beginning , as OPPOSED to using apt-get/synaptic?  Which one handles dependencies better in Feisty?
[09:37] <ShayGuy> So what about my partitions?
[09:38] <unimatrix9> hello there
[09:38] <vimalg1> ShayGuy: I didnt catch your problem statement
[09:38] <unimatrix9> how would i ( in evolution mail ) mail more than one adres in the header?
[09:39] <ShayGuy> I can't resize the main partition.
[09:39] <epkphoto> I haven't seen it mentioned recently, but can anyone else resolve www.ubuntu.com right now
[09:39] <unimatrix9> i tried to type more than one e-mail adres, but it mails to just the first, any tips would be welcome
[09:39] <ShayGuy> I'm trying to install Edgy Eft.
[09:39] <Gowtham> @vimalg- i think synaptic is all time best
[09:39] <tommy> pissedoffdude, ok i ran the setup, should i now restart for it to take effect
[09:39] <vimalg1> ShayGuy: Do you mean your ntfs/fat32 partition?
[09:39] <unimatrix9> how would i ( in evolution mail ) mail more than one adres in the header?
[09:39] <unimatrix9> i tried to type more than one e-mail adres, but it mails to just the first, any tips would be welcome
[09:39] <Aishe> RAWR Gabriel, RAWR
[09:39] <ShayGuy> NTFS, yes.
 And in the details, there's "resize the filesystem->run simulation->ntfsresive -P --force --force /dev/hda1 -s..."
 "...-s 22649405440 --no-action". And under that...some more stuff.
 Including "ERROR: Extended record needed (1176 > 1024), not yet supported! Please try to free less space."
[09:40] <pissedoffdude> @tommy where you able to choose a different resolution?
[09:40] <pissedoffdude> if so then reboot
[09:40] <Rimbo> I think there is no answer to my question.
[09:41] <Rimbo> I think it's just a plain ol' fashioned bug
[09:41] <epkphoto> the dns resolution for ubuntu.com seems to be working, but I can't seem to connect to the webserver
[09:41] <vimalg1> ShayGuy: I'm assuming you have enough freespace on your NTFS partition that you're trying to resize; but in any case, do a complete Defragmentation operation that often clears up problems with resizing.
[09:41] <dj-ex> it didnt do anything Rimbo
[09:41] <Rimbo> dj-ex:  Damn.
[09:42] <vimalg1> ShayGuy: Also does you BIOS have something like LBA mode enabled
[09:42] <Rimbo> dj-ex:  What hardware are you using?
[09:42] <GekiBlue> Stupid question... How do I make xchat connect to more than one channel on the same network after it connects? :O
[09:42] <dj-ex> the onlythings it couldbe are my soundcard or my video card if its hardware
[09:42] <dj-ex> realtek ac97 high deff soundcard
[09:42] <dj-ex> and ati radeon express 1100
[09:42] <dj-ex> video
[09:42] <ShayGuy> vimalg1: Can I defrag in Linux, and how do I find out about the BIOS?
[09:42] <vimalg1> ShayGuy: The error message points to an error often encountered with a 1024 cylinder limit in non-LBA mode BIOSes
[09:42] <Rimbo> what about the video?
[09:43] <dj-ex> and ati radeon express 1100
[09:43] <dj-ex> for hte video
[09:43] <Rimbo> Oh.
[09:43] <Rimbo> Got it.
[09:43] <Rimbo> what processor?  What network card?
[09:43] <vimalg1> ShayGuy: I suggest using the windows defrag for best results with ntfs. Frankly i dont know how to use defrag tools in linux
[09:43] <dj-ex> processor is a pentium 4 3ghz
[09:44] <Rimbo> ati supposedly has decent support, and ac97's been around for... well, 10 years :)
[09:44] <dj-ex> and network is 10/100 base T netowrk interface
[09:44] <vimalg1> ShayGuy: As for the Bios, check the version number that pops up at boottime, Google for it with the terms LBA together with it
[09:44] <tommy> thanks pissedoffdude, it worked wonders
[09:44] <dj-ex> is all it says
[09:44] <hase> is there any other program besides lm-senors to detect CPU temperature, I'm only curious because I've never owned a laptop before and I don't want to damage it
[09:44] <dj-ex> network*
[09:44] <Rimbo> dj-ex: what you could do is yank out all the cards in your computer other than the video card and see if anything changes.
[09:44] <pissedoffdude> your welcome and enjoy your ubuntu
[09:45] <Rimbo> I actually ended up doing that myself, but not because of a driver issue -- my power supply wasn't able to power everything I had plugged in!
[09:45] <hps> GekiBlue: as far as i can remember seperate the channels with , or ;
[09:45] <dj-ex> the only thing thats not onboard is my video card
[09:45] <Aishe> gabriel, i think you just may need my blonde friend
[09:45] <dj-ex> so rupping htem out isnt an option
[09:45] <GekiBlue> hps: Thanks :)
[09:45] <Aishe> X3
[09:46] <Rimbo> BIOS measured 5V at like 4.87 something.  I yanked everything out, and things seem to be operating correctly again.
[09:46] <cyphase> hmm, Ubuntu Media Center via LinuxMCE..
[09:46] <Rimbo> dj-ex: You should be able to disable the features in BIOS
[09:46] <vimalg1> pissedoffdude: Do you know if the Ext3 userspace driver for windows is usable? I'd like to use ext3 instead of fat32 for a shared data partition under /home. (i deal with a lot of large files that move around a lot)
[09:46] <dj-ex> oh good point
[09:47] <dj-ex> i shall return................again
[09:47] <Rimbo> dj-ex: Another thing to check is if your CD burned correctly.  It could have burned bad
[09:47] <vimalg1> pissedoffdude: http://www.fs-driver.org/ This is the one
[09:47] <Rimbo> shit, i probably missed him
[09:47] <Rimbo> well, I don't think there's a solution to my problem.  Gonna log off and go to bed.
[09:47] <Rimbo> later folks!
[09:48] <pissedoffdude> you should be able to share an ex3 file system between linux and windows
[09:49] <epkphoto> does anyone know why www.ubuntu.com seems to be down ?
[09:49] <ShayGuy> vimalg1: Defragging in Windows now; still not entirely sure how to check the BIOS version.
[09:49] <gyaresu> epkphoto: nope. It's not there though...
[09:50] <epkphoto> hmm, oh well...guess I'll have to wait on the old apt-get update
[09:50] <vimalg1> pissedoffdude: I dont know how stable that driver is under loads....  I'm only going to use it to import my tagged mp3s into itunes via drag and drop. I dont want the filesystem to crash while transferring 1-2GB's at a go
[09:51] <vimalg1> ShayGuy: What  does the defragmentation analysis say? Your drive was probably heavily fragmented. That usually solves most issues with resizing volumes
[09:52] <sluimers> I accidentally deleted my top panel in Ubuntu
[09:52] <pissedoffdude> @slumiers just right click ur bottom panel and select add pannel
[09:53] <Aishe> -_-
[09:53] <ShayGuy> vimalg1: Says most files aren't fragmented...it's about 5% done now.
[09:53] <sluimers> Well, I'm missing one object in the panel, but can't find it anywhere
[09:53] <sluimers> it's the one that shows when there updates in the package manager
[09:54] <pissedoffdude> add the notifier applet
[09:54] <gce> hmm is www.ubuntu.com reachable by others ?
[09:54] <Krista> nope
[09:54] <dj-ex> nope
[09:54] <ShayGuy> Nada.
[09:54] <sluimers> notifier applet is not the same as the notifier area is it?
[09:55] <pissedoffdude> it is the same
[09:55] <gce> hopefully its not reachable because of planned maintenace
[09:55] <sluimers> Well, it doesn't show up there
[09:56] <pissedoffdude> hmm do programs such as gaim adn amarok show up in the system tray?
[09:56] <pissedoffdude> and*
[09:56] <sluimers> yup
[09:56] <pissedoffdude> that just means that there are no updates avaliable
[09:56] <sluimers> xchat is in the system right now
[09:56] <strat89> Q: cannot access anything except device manager under "system>administration>x . accepts password then nothing or starts to load app then nothing. Newb on fresh install of breezy.
[09:56] <sluimers> ah
[09:56] <sluimers> okay
[09:57] <pissedoffdude> when is the last time that you have installed updates?
[09:57] <annihilus> hey everyone, im pretty new to linux, is avi supported OTB
[09:57] <sluimers> just before I added the notificatrion area back again
[09:57] <pissedoffdude> if you want to be a hundred percent sure then you can open up a terminal and type "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[09:57] <sluimers> *notification
[09:58] <pissedoffdude> you can also open up synaptic and select mark all upgrades too
[09:58] <Ademan> do adesklets work with beryl or compiz if you have it? (as opposed to the crappy "grab desktop transparency" thing)
[10:00] <annihilus> i am having a problm where when i open up an avi video it gives the error "Could Not Decode Jpeg"
[10:00] <annihilus> anyone have any ideas
[10:00] <sluimers> thanks dude
[10:01] <Shrimpy_> is anyone fimiliar with ettercap?
[10:01] <jpjacobs> Shrimpy_, somewhat
[10:02] <Aishe> gabriel
[10:02] <verma> annihilus, what player are you using?
[10:02] <Aishe> did we have hw for traver's?
[10:02] <pissedoffdude> no they are do on tuesday?
[10:02] <pissedoffdude> i think
[10:02] <exs> Woohoo!! I've just finished doing the whole new homepage of Wubi (the program where you can install ubuntu via an exe from windows, which sets up it's own partiton + grub!)
[10:03] <pissedoffdude> yeah tuesday she never collects hw on monday
[10:03] <tony__> I'm using the restricted ATI drivers in Feisty Fawn right now. After alot of fixes, It now looks good, but I still don't get 3D rendering to work sais fglrxinfo
[10:03] <tony__> Ideas?
[10:04] <tony__> fglrxinfo still says that my OpenGL vendor is Mesa :-/ And in xorg.conf the driver is set to fglrx
[10:04] <verma> check your xorg log, it will probably report the error
[10:05] <tony__> is it in /etc/X11?
[10:05] <verma> tony__, /var/log
[10:05] <tony__> ok ^
[10:05] <[Tuxedo] > tony__ try setting to to radeon
[10:06] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , Ok i will try that soon :) thanks
[10:07] <Mugwump09> edgy will not run at all on my computer, I have an ASUS A8N-sli premium motherboard, eVGA GeForce 7800 GT, AMD Athlon 64 4000+
[10:08] <rickyfingers_> Mugwump09: are you installing from the 64 bit cd?
[10:09] <Mugwump09> no
[10:09] <tony__> aha "(II) fglrx(0): Composite extension enabled, disabling direct rendering"
[10:09] <Mugwump09> i386 or whatever
[10:10] <rickyfingers_> Mugwump09: but you can boot off other cd's?
[10:10] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , do you think that's the problem (above)?
[10:10] <Mugwump09> no, I have the alternative and 64 bit version on different discs, none of them will boot
[10:10] <[Tuxedo] > yeah, try disabling
[10:10] <Mugwump09> who?
[10:11] <jorid> hi...
[10:11] <rickyfingers_> Mugwump09: You've got boot sequence right in the bios? Check that, and you may want to flash the bios as well.
[10:11] <Mugwump09> yes I'm sure
[10:11] <tony__> i'll be back
[10:12] <Mugwump09> I get to where it asks if I want to install or run and has the countdown, I choose run and it plays the song and freezes up
[10:12] <rickyfingers> Mugwump09: I'm running edgy 64 bit on an asus mb and I had to update the bios before install would work.
[10:12] <Mugwump09> update to what version?
[10:12] <rickyfingers> Mugwump09: but my mb's a different model
[10:13] <Mugwump09> oh
[10:13] <Mugwump09> I have the latest BIOS other than the new beta
[10:13] <Mugwump09> and I don't know how to update BIOS
[10:13] <rickyfingers> Mugwump09: don't know, just took the latest at the time.
[10:13] <ubuntu_noob> writable mounted partition ?
[10:14] <ubuntu_noob> hello room
[10:14] <cefx> I tried to redetect and reconfigure x.org with the automated tool but that broke my copy of X windows, so can I try simply replacing nv with nvidia in my x.org conf?
[10:14] <cefx> I'm trying to get opengl to work
[10:14] <ubuntu_noob> is there anyway to make ntfs drives to be writable ?
[10:14] <cefx> and it's not working
[10:14] <cefx> !opengl
[10:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about opengl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:15] <ubuntu_noob> cefx #ubuntu-effects
[10:15] <cefx> k
[10:15] <ubuntu_noob> lolz
[10:15] <ubuntu_noob> I just asked the same question earlier
[10:16] <mike__> how does one restart x? :)
[10:16] <rickyfingers> cefx: that should work.  You may want to just move /etc/X11/xorg.conf to somewhere else (so there's nothing in there) maybe then the nvidia tool will generate xorg.conf.
[10:16] <ubuntu_noob> ctrl+alt+backspace
[10:16] <cefx> It generates a xorg.conf but the xorg.conf it generates fucks up
[10:16] <Mugwump09> how do I update the BIOS?
[10:17] <nicegirL> How do I fix this problem? "totem was not able to play this disc. Failed to find mountpoint for /dev/hdc"
[10:17] <ubuntu_noob> is it possible to make ntfs writable ?
[10:17] <rickyfingers> Mugwump09: you have to download an image from their web site.  Then you copy the image to a mem stick, then reboot, get into the bios, and choose to update
[10:17] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: yes it is but you need some modules.
[10:18] <Mugwump09> I don't have a mem stick
[10:18] <ubuntu_noob> what parts do I need ?
[10:18] <tony__> Yeay! Worked! "OpelGL renderer string: Radeon X1600 series" when I disabled composite. To the next problem... I' trying to enable desktop effects. It tried before, but now it just says that Composite extension is not avalible... damn it...
[10:18] <rickyfingers> Mugwump09: there's probably alternatives, you should check out the web site and read through directions.
[10:21] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: I'm looking in synaptic looks like installing ntfs_progs and ntfs_tools might work for you...on the other hand you can recompile the kernel and choose to compile ntfs_write module into the kernel.
[10:22] <ubuntu_noob> can you please tell me step by step
[10:22] <ubuntu_noob> as you can see I am a ubuntu noob
[10:23] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: ok then recompiling the kernel is a good exercise to learn more, but that might be overkill at this point.
[10:23] <esperegu> chu iu chi tie uzas landell?
[10:23] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: if you're using gnome desktop, click on system up at the top, click administration, and then synaptic package manager.
[10:24] <esperegu> oeps. sorry... does somebody here use landell ?
[10:24] <ubuntu_noob> ok
[10:24] <ubuntu_noob> then ?
[10:24] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: when synaptic's open, do a search for ntfs
[10:24] <tony__> I also want to know how to disable wireless networking. Have a card, but don't use it. And ubuntu is nagging me about wireless when i boot up
[10:24] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: then select ntfsprogs and ntfstools
[10:25] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: after you've installed them open a terminal (applications->accessories->terminal
[10:25] <zool2005> I've installed command line system and want to read dmesg output, how can I scroll back?
[10:26] <rickyfingers> and type man ntfsprogs read that, and then type man ntfstools, read that, then you'll know to use the new programs.
[10:26] <nicegirL>  /msg nickserv link slowfire tralla
[10:26] <MindRiot> anyone know where to get some xtra Gdesklets from?
[10:26] <rickyfingers> zool2005: if you just type dmesg | less, you can use page up and page down to scroll up and down through the output
[10:27] <zool2005> rickyfingers, thanks !
[10:27] <rickyfingers> zool2005: np
[10:27] <ubuntu_noob> ok done
[10:29] <ubuntu_noob> rickyfingers: I am in terminal now
[10:29] <tony__> [Tuxedo] ,  Yeay! Worked! "OpelGL renderer string: Radeon X1600 series" when I disabled composite. To the next problem... I' trying to enable desktop effects. It tried before, but now it just says that Composite extension is not avalible... damn it...
[10:30] <[Tuxedo] > Are you trying to use Beryl?
[10:30] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , no feistys built in compiz
[10:30] <[Tuxedo] > Okay, have you sudo aticonfig --initial yet?
[10:31] <tony__> not this time....
[10:31] <[Tuxedo] > (There's a command along the lines of that, it slips at the moment, working down the first cup of coffee. :) )
[10:31] <tony__> Found fglrx primary device section
[10:31] <tony__> Nothing to do, terminating.
[10:32] <[Tuxedo] > do the overlay, then log out and back in, not really experienced with compiz
[10:32] <tony__> Maybe I should try composite true... it seems to be a difference between true and Enable
[10:32] <[Tuxedo] > (and I'm coding flash atm too :P)
[10:32] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , 'do the overlay'?
[10:32] <CommanderCool> When i play armagetron, from time to time the game is minimized and have to re-maximize it...is this a armagetron-specific problem?
[10:32] <SplashTK7> Hey I was just wondering, whenever I boot into my ubuntu install I log in the splash screen appears but then nothing else loads :(
[10:33] <[Tuxedo] > I believe it's sudo aticonfig overlay =Xv, one moment let me check that
[10:33] <tony__> wee
[10:33] <ubuntu_noob> rickyfingers: what should I do next ?
[10:34] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: now you can use ntfscp to overwrite files...but not create new ones...kind of a bummer.
[10:34] <rickyfingers> ubuntu_noob: I know you can get read write capability with recompiling the kernel, but that is a somewhat lengthy process.
[10:34] <SplashTK7> Hey I was just wondering, whenever I boot into my ubuntu install I log in the splash screen appears but then nothing else loads :( Anyone got any idea?
[10:35] <variant> what runlevel in ubuntu does not load X?
[10:35] <SplashTK7> variant, I guess so
[10:35] <tony__> SplashTK7, check /var/log/Xorg...something... [Tuxedo]  just tought me that :)
[10:35] <[Tuxedo] > splashtk7 : is it kicking you to a kind of dos looking thing?
[10:36] <cefx> Is anyone experienced with xorg and all sorts of stuff? I'm having 3d/opengl problems and nobody is active in #ubuntu-effects
[10:36] <variant> rickyfingers: see the help on fuse support, it enables full read/write ntfs support
[10:36] <SplashTK7> tuxedo, nah it just hangs and if I crt-alt-backspace it reloads x, I log in then the splash screen appears and then nothing just hangs
[10:36] <mike_-> OK, so here's the thing - i installed an nvidia driver for my graphics card - apparently it was the wrong one.. uhm, i need to get my default settings back, i'm on the livecd right now
[10:37] <mike_-> :)
[10:37] <variant> ubuntu_noob: see this: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009
[10:37] <ubuntu_noob> rickyfinger: thanks
[10:37] <variant> ubuntu_noob: it will allow full read write ntfs support
[10:37] <ubuntu_noob> variant: thanks too
[10:37] <variant> ubuntu_noob: there is no need to recompile the kernel
[10:38] <variant> ubuntu_noob: full ntfs support is quite easy now in ubuntu
[10:38] <tony__> for NTFS writing support, in feisty, is really simple. I just installed NTFS tools or whatever the name was. Then I checked "NTFS Writing" :P
[10:38] <variant> tony__: that particular write support is incomplete, use FUSE to get 100% compatibility
[10:39] <SplashTK7> ?
[10:39] <ranpha> Hi there i'm trying to get torrentflux working on ubuntu. I installed the package found in the reps. But it went wrong and i want to reinstall but i get this error Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code 1 . I can't remove or do anything with how can i fix this?
[10:39] <[Tuxedo] > okay, going in order here. :) tony, try sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv
[10:40] <tony__> variant, ok... :) Not that important for me yet, but ill rememeber that
[10:40] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , thanks, again
[10:40] <[Tuxedo] > splatk7, try to ctrl atl F1 and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[10:40] <[Tuxedo] > splashtk7, that is
[10:40] <SplashTK7> k
[10:41] <feixuexiao> join ##ubuntu-cn
[10:41] <[Tuxedo] > and I can't quite find the command for reconfiguring xorg
[10:41] <[Tuxedo] > I want to say dpkg reconfigure xorg-x11
[10:41] <CommanderCool> how can i prevent the system from jumping out of fullscreen mode every now and then?
[10:41] <[Tuxedo] > which would set you back up to where xorg should be when you first install, mike
[10:42] <mike_-> mmhm, mmhm, i'll try it
[10:42] <mike_-> and i'll be back with results
[10:42] <[Tuxedo] > k
[10:42] <variant> CommanderCool: explain what you mean
[10:43] <[Tuxedo] > or sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules
[10:43] <[Tuxedo] > hmm
[10:43] <CommanderCool> when i play a game, maby every 15 minutes it is minimized
[10:43] <[Tuxedo] > is your screensaver on?
[10:43] <variant> CommanderCool: probably some notification thing, or a screensaver like [Tuxedo]  says
[10:44] <strat89> Q: cannot access anything except device manager under "system>administration>x . accepts password then nothing or starts to load app then nothing. Newb on fresh install of breezy. ?????
[10:44] <CommanderCool> er...i think yes...but why should it be activated when i use keyboard and mouse all the time?
[10:44] <Flannel> strat89: You really ought to upgrade from Breezy to Dapper.  Breezy is only supported for a few more weeks.
[10:44] <variant> CommanderCool: perhaps the game you are playng is captureing all the key/mouse events
[10:44] <variant> CommanderCool: is it a wine game?
[10:44] <CommanderCool> no
[10:44] <variant> CommanderCool: what game!?
[10:45] <CommanderCool> its armagetron
[10:45] <CommanderCool> hehe, nice guessing game
[10:45] <variant> CommanderCool: ah..
[10:45] <strat89> ok I will once I can get the machine on the web
[10:45] <cefx> Can someone look at this and tell me what might be wrong?
[10:45] <cefx> http://rafb.net/p/UcPR9U23.html
[10:45] <variant> CommanderCool: dunno then sorry. i'm off now anyway :P
[10:45] <CommanderCool> thanks though
[10:45] <Flannel> strat89: Do you not have access to any internet?  Might be better doing a fresh install of dapper.  (Grab the alternate CD, etc)  Especially if it's a fresh install of breezy, you'll lose nothing.
[10:46] <shotgun> hello, i need some questions answered
[10:46] <shotgun> i installed Ubuntu for the first time last year, Dapper Drake, and i had instant mp3 support
[10:46] <variant> cefx: yes, the game or program you are trying to use requires 3d rendering acceleration. the nv driver doesn't support that (yet)
[10:46] <[Tuxedo] > shotgun lucky, I haven't gotten a single mp3 to play in Ubuntu yet :P
[10:46] <variant> cefx: also, Screen      0  "Default Screen" 0 0 that first 0 doesn't look right
[10:46] <rickyfingers> cefx: I don't know if this is what's causing the problem, but I see you have the same physical device declared twice in xorg.conf
[10:47] <shotgun> i'd used other OSs since then mostly OpenSUSE
[10:47] <variant> cefx: you need to install the nvidia driver
[10:47] <variant> !nvidia | cefx
[10:47] <shotgun> really? fucking crap

[10:47] <lnx^> does anyone know if suspend2 works with feisty?
[10:47] <Flannel> lnx^: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty
[10:47] <variant> lnx^: yes, depending on your laptop
[10:47] <strat89> flannel thnx yes i Have the cd but have to open up my windows machine to get enough ram to run the install cd for dapper
[10:47] <lnx^> i'm currently running edgy and the hibernation is damn slow
[10:48] <bmayolg> Hi Tuxedo, do you have any problems with Mp3?
[10:48] <cefx> rickyfingers: thought so.
[10:48] <cefx> variant: I did that before and it broke my install...
[10:48] <Flannel> strat89: Ah.  You need the alternate CD, not the "desktop" CD.  It's the same installer as on Breezy.
[10:48] <rickyfingers> cefx: are you trying to get a dual monitor setup working?
[10:48] <[Tuxedo] > bmaylog : Right now I'm in XP, but I did have issues with some music refusing to play in Kaffiene and a few other players
[10:48] <lnx^> takes 2 minutes to resume from hibernation. i used to use suspend2 in debian but i couldn't figure out how to run it in ubuntu without patching the kernel
[10:48] <bmayolg> Tuxed, did you install the codecs with Automatix?
[10:49] <shotgun> Variant, what is the package to install that will support mp3? I am running Ubuntu 6.06 and I have not been able to play any MP3's yet, even though i have used Synaptic to install every package that has MP3 in it
[10:49] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! Im having a problem transferring files over a SMBFS... special characters, like the swedish  gets garbled!
[10:49] <[Tuxedo] > And .avi files most of the time either refuse to play, or I have to hax0r the settings until it will show the video.

[10:49] <[Tuxedo] > bmayolg prolly not :p
[10:49] <[Tuxedo] > didn't spend to much time worrying about it
[10:49] <lnx^> variant: does feisty have suspend2 kernels and the necessary tools?
[10:49] <[Tuxedo] > I only use linux for flash work, ripping, etc.
[10:49] <cefx> rickyfingers: no, I'm going to delete that second device one
[10:49] <Flannel> strat89: http://releases.ubuntu.com/  Get the alternate CD for either 6.10 or 6.06.1, depending on which you want
[10:49] <cefx> heh
[10:49] <cefx> cross your fingers it doesn't break!
[10:49] <[Tuxedo] > When it comes to gaming and websurfing I switch to XP :/
[10:50] <bmayolg> Ok Tuxedo, take a llok at Automatix, it an installer of a lot of programs and codecs, really charges Ubuntu, and best of all it is automated
[10:50] <esperegu> somebody here know where I can find the repository to install landell?
[10:50] <[eternal[d] arken> [Tuxedo] : I got css today running in Linux :D
[10:50] <bmayolg> for gaming, you will have to keep to XP
[10:50] <rambo3> !automatix | [Tuxedo] 
[10:50] <rickyfingers> cefx: you may need to get rid of the second screen definition, and second monitor def. too
[10:50] <ubotu> [Tuxedo] : automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[10:50] <Flannel> bmayolg, [Tuxedo] , don't get Automatix.  There's absolutely no need.
[10:50] <mzuverink> Is it possible to share a dir in your /home w/o password auth, similar to the way windows xp does it?  I have it set up to share public now, but keep getting problems while attempting to connect from a vista box, it refuses to allow connection w/o auth while my xp box has no problems?
[10:50] <Flannel> bmayolg: Please don't recommend Automatix.
[10:50] <[eternal[d] arken> But it crashes every few minutes so I need a complete reboot :p Windows is still better for gaming :(
[10:50] <amar> can anyone plz help me regarding mounting windows partition........ i am experiencing some weird problem???
[10:51] <rickyfingers> cefx: and then it looks like you need to include glx extension too
[10:51] <ShayGuy> vimalg1: I'm back. Defragged the drive and got DIFFERENT error messages.
[10:51] <[Tuxedo] > I don't have much problems with gaming in Linux, it's just there is no suppourt.
[10:51] <[Tuxedo] > Almost every thing I've tried to run in linux runs not only faster, but 5x better.
[10:51] <[eternal[d] arken> [Tuxedo] : And only really puzzle/arcade games :p
[10:51] <bmayolg> Tuxedo probaly Ubotu is right and I have heard other people saying that, but it really worked for me with no flaes
[10:51] <[Tuxedo] > Now if they just made a linux ONLY game. :/
[10:51] <[Tuxedo] > That got great recognition of some kind.
[10:51] <[eternal[d] arken> Which was worth playing :p
[10:51] <[eternal[d] arken> It would.
[10:51] <[Tuxedo] > Indeed.
[10:51] <[eternal[d] arken> Some pure CSS, really good game.

[10:52] <rambo3> yeah its much better then edgy for me
[10:52] <[eternal[d] arken> >=6.10 just wasn't worth it (ie: crap wireless) but this is *unbeleievable* :D
[10:53] <cefx> rickyfingers: yah, should I also define things differently under the screen section?

[10:53] <[Tuxedo] > I -hate- loading Ubuntu on my other computer. :( It forces me to go through the hard drives no matter what I do.
[10:53] <[Tuxedo] > Did it work tony :)
[10:53] <Flannel> [Tuxedo] : you mean fsck?  That only happens every ... what, 30 reboots?
[10:54] <mikeyhatesms> so 7 beta is good with wireless routing??
[10:54] <rickyfingers> cefx: well, I'm thinking the first screen definition is the one you want to keep, but get rid of that second EndSection line

[10:54] <shotgun> Revised Question: For a complete newbie, what is the easiest way going about installing support for MP3? (OS - Ubuntu 6.06
[10:54] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , nope :-/ sorry. I've also tried composite false, Disable, true and Enable. true/Enable disables direct rendering.

[10:54] <[eternal[d] arken> Hehe, on my first boot it says that my hdd hasn't been checked for nearly 50,000 days.
[10:54] <[Tuxedo] > Try 0 ?
[10:54] <[eternal[d] arken> It's not even a year old lol :p
[10:54] <[Tuxedo] > 0 Worked for me in the end.
[10:54] <shotgun> you showed me that before. none of it helped
[10:54] <rambo3> shotgun, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/MP3
[10:55] <rambo3> you just dont want to read
[10:55] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , grrr :D OK i'll do that then. But how do i only restart x?
[10:55] <shotgun> yes, i read that and it makes no sense, i cannot understand, i love to read.
[10:55] <[eternal[d] arken> [Tuxedo] : Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[10:55] <Flannel> shotgun: it gives you packages to install to enable mp3 support.  It's not hard to understand.
[10:55] <Arkkis-> hey, is it just some local problem, or is ubuntu.com server nonresponsive to you too?
[10:55] <[eternal[d] arken> Note, backspace, not delte :p
[10:55] <variant> cefx: thats the problem with proprietry drivers.
[10:55] <[eternal[d] arken> that should reboot x and take you to the login window.
[10:55] <cefx> rickyfingers: so should be...
[10:55] <cefx> Drive "nvidia-glx"
[10:55] <cefx> ?
[10:55] <[eternal[d] arken> what version are you running? in 7.04 it stuffs up for me.
[10:55] <Flannel> Arkkis-: yeah, it's having issues
[10:56] <[Tuxedo] > tony__ just log out and back in :)
[10:56] <[eternal[d] arken> But it works in openSuSE .
[10:56] <rambo3> shotgun, ok . it means install those packages with synaptic or apt. do you know how to use synaptic ?
[10:56] <[Tuxedo] > or you can ctrl alt F1
[10:56] <variant> cefx: the noveue project will hopefully be able to supply 3d drivers for nvidia cards some time this year
[10:56] <tony__> CTRL+ALT+Backspace does not restart X for me... its only going to the promt and i'm not able to write any commands there
[10:56] <Arkkis-> Flannel, I suspect that feisty beta is the reason.. ?
[10:56] <variant> cefx: nouveau i mean
[10:56] <[Tuxedo] > one moment
[10:56] <[eternal[d] arken> tony__ running 7 beta?
[10:56] <[Tuxedo] > looking through notes :s
[10:56] <tony__> [eternal[d] arken, yes
[10:56] <Ademan> !xembed
[10:56] <[eternal[d] arken> ah, same happens for me.
[10:56] <cefx> nvidia-glx is already the newest version
[10:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xembed - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:56] <rickyfingers> cefx: no I'm thinking you need to make a new section, Section "Extensions" and then Option "glx" "true" or something like that...google xorg.conf glx extensions
[10:57] <[Tuxedo] > tony__ press ctrl alt F1, log in as root, type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[10:57] <shotgun> i dont know how to use synaptic
[10:57] <[eternal[d] arken> i assume coz it's still in beta but could it be ubuntu trying to be different?
[10:57] <Flannel> shotgun: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[10:57] <tony__> [eternal[d] arken, It does NOT happend if you startx manually when you are allready logged in :) wierd
[10:57] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , oh, i'll write that down
[10:57] <Flannel> Arkkis-: doubt it.  Probably some server misconfig.
[10:57] <rickyfingers> cefx: scratch that last suggestion.
[10:57] <[eternal[d] arken> well, i gtg now, homework lol :p
[10:57] <Arkkis-> has it been long this way?
[10:57] <[eternal[d] arken> bye

[10:57] <[eternal[d] arken> /exit
[10:58] <[Tuxedo] > front and back >.<
[10:58] <rickyfingers> cefx: looks like you just need to get the nvidia driver loaded.
[10:58] <rambo3> shotgun, ok

[10:58] <strat89> flannel:I have the 6.06lts cd . is that what you mean by "alternate" ?
[10:59] <Flannel> strat89: Well, that's a particular version.  For that, there's a "desktop" CD, and an "Alternate" CD.  The Desktop is a GUI, the alternate is exactly like the Breezy install CD.  You want the alternate.  It runs better.
[10:59] <cefx> rickyfingers: I'm snagging the driver from nvidia.com now
[11:00] <novice> can anyone plz help me regarding mounting windows partition .... i'm experiencing some weird problem??
[11:00] <mike_-> no dice, tux
[11:00] <strat89> flannel: ah ok i see tnx
[11:00] <rambo3> novice, like what
[11:00] <mike_-> it was dpkg reconfigure xorg-x11 .. right?
[11:00] <rambo3> xserver-xorg

[11:01] <[Tuxedo] > I knew it was something like that!
[11:01] <novice> rambo3: i have used diff mounting points
[11:01] <rambo3> novice, so its maping same driver into more more mount points?
[11:01] <novice> rambo3: ya
[11:02] <rambo3> novice, are you mounting them by uuid ?
[11:02] <cefx> rickyfingers: should i use the driver from nvidia.com? I followed the ubuntu instructions before and it didn't work
[11:02] <novice> rambo3: uuid?? can u explain me wat it is??
[11:02] <[Tuxedo] > How'd it work tony?
[11:02] <mike_-> sooo.. dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[11:02] <rambo3> novice, i am no expert on uuid . you can ask ubotu about that
[11:02] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , no.. 3D rendering is working. Which is great. But compiz won't start. Maybe i'll try beryl instead?
[11:03] <rambo3> novice paster your fstab on pastebin
[11:03] <[Tuxedo] > tony__ what kind of video card do you have?
[11:03] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , It wants composite on, but then the 3D rendering will be disabled

[11:04] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , I have made alot of settings for the video card in xorg.conf when i tried to get 3d to work... maybe i should comment them out and try?

[11:04] <[Tuxedo] > no, Edgy Eft works better
[11:04] <bambie> i wana burn it and update
[11:05] <[Tuxedo] > atleast as far as I know!
[11:05] <Wingman> Hi all :)
[11:05] <bambie> do i have to extract and than burn?
[11:05] <novice> 04 rambo3: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11970/
[11:05] <bambie> or i can burn as a rar file?
[11:05] <GekiBlue> >>
[11:05] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , I've tried that... but it didn't work for me (as usual). Ive probably made 10 clean installs when trying to get compiz or beryl to work
[11:05] <mike_-> extract
[11:05] <novice> rambo3:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11970/
[11:05] <[Tuxedo] > It's the only one I've been able to get beryl to work on my old skool Radeon
[11:05] <bambie> mike thank you.
[11:05] <Wingman> Is there anyone who knows hot to make ndiswrapper work on Feisty64 beta? :D
[11:05] <lnx^> hey, does anyone have experience of using suspend2 in edgy?
[11:05] <[Tuxedo] > tony__ one moment, I'll link you to the script if it will let me into the ubuntu forums
[11:05] <bambie> mike do i have to burn as an iso image? or just extract and burn?
[11:05] <cefx> rickyfingers: Is there anything wrong with the serverlayout section?
[11:05] <GekiBlue> I just restarted Ubuntu.... and then I had to restart it like half a dozen times before it loaded, the first 5 times it just went black after the loading screen, and one time I got 'out of scan range' and then it loaded normally
[11:06] <mike_-> you have to burn as an iso image
[11:06] <[Tuxedo] > it really works wonderful, almost painless setup, it even restarts itself :)
[11:06] <bambie> alright
[11:06] <bambie> thanks
[11:06] <Rod> hi... how to fix an ext2 station mounted on windows?
[11:06] <mike_-> yup yup
[11:06] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , but i wont go back to edgy :) never come this far before
[11:06] <Wingman> noone knows? :(
[11:06] <kane77> does synergy share also system resources? (is there a program for sharing system resources?)
[11:06] <trond> Gekiblue: I have actually experienced that too. ATI prop?
[11:06] <I_Glitch> How do I upgrade from one version to the next.  For example, from dapper to edgy?
[11:07] <trond> Gekiblue: It went away after a few upgrades, or maybe I fixed it without knowing it in xorg.conf
[11:07] <[Tuxedo] > I_Glitch those are different distrobutions of ubuntu
[11:07] <GekiBlue> trond: Yeah, I've got ATI... AIW Radeon 8500DV

[11:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:18] <trond> Gekiblue: Catch! You may want to try some of the options in the device section. Defining vsync and hsync values in the monitor section could also be an idea. Those are for 1600x1200 75 hz.

[11:27] <ShayGuy> mjbrooks: Partition the frelling hard drive, that's what.
[11:27] <floyd^> i installed ubuntu but i cant seem to be able to work out the networking
[11:27] <tony__> 	Option	    "AIGLX" "true" under ServerLayout
[11:28] <floyd^> i have a static ip and i tried to set a connection in System-Networking
[11:28] <floyd^> but the gateway ip won't stay there
[11:28] <rambo3> !LAMP | ranpha
[11:28] <ubotu> ranpha: 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+)
[11:28] <floyd^> each time i open it up again the gateway setting disappears
[11:28] <trond> Tonny: Make sure you have this if you have an ati card: Section "Extensions"
[11:28] <trond> 	Option	    "Composite" "disable"
[11:28] <trond> EndSection
[11:28] <floyd^> needless to say i have no internet
[11:28] <mjbrooks> ShayGuy, using gparted?
[11:28] <trond> Tonny: that is with the prop drivers
[11:29] <trond> Than you also have to use xgl
[11:29] <tony__> trond, yes i have... if its not disabled 3D rendering will not work. But compiz and beryl seems to want composite enabled to work
[11:29] <floyd^> i added gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in /etc/network/interfaces and then downed and upped the networking interface and still nothing
[11:29] <floyd^> any suggestions?
[11:29] <[Tuxedo] > If you are trying to use xgl then disable AIGLX
[11:29] <trond> tony: if you use the fglrx drivers you have to use a xgl server
[11:29] <floyd^> how do i do that? :(
[11:29] <trond> (unfortunately) :(
[11:29] <ShayGuy> mjbrooks: Yeah, or whatever derivative the regular installer uses.

[11:30] <tony__> [Tuxedo] , trond: So just disable AIGLX in xorg.conf should make it?

[11:43] <rambo3> beryl is early  beta . Most often in linux version 1.0 i stable
[11:43] <tabbot> is there a fiesty channel?
[11:43] <mjbrooks> Arkkis-, once you get over the hurdle of getting the proprietary graphics drivers install   yes
[11:43] <Jowi> Arkkis-, ask in #ubuntu+1 which is the feisty channel

[11:46] <[Tuxedo] > How interesting... my demo for Flash Pro 8 just extended itself by 56 days. O.O
[11:46] <Jowi> mike__, always use gksudo with graphical programs
[11:46] <Jowi> mike__, try gksudo

I have done a lot and it now appears when you type 'lsmod'. The next thing it tells me to do is type 'ifconfig ethX up' I have tried this with and without sudo however both times get the following error message: ethX: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device. Thank you, in adavanced, for your help.
[11:48] <Arkkis-> markvandenborre, doh, ofcourse it's that :D. Thanks!
[11:49] <rambo3> mike__, you need to logout and then log in again after that
[11:49] <Jowi> Lcarsdata, ethX actually means eth[number for the card] 
[11:50] <ferret_0568> Feisty is great!
[11:50] <mjbrooks> Lcarsdata, the "X" in ethX is a placeholder    try eth0  or eth1 instead
[11:50] <Lcarsdata> oh, what if the card is not plugged in - will it still work?
[11:50] <Yodude> hey does anybody know any game for linux that is about WWII and has great graphics and is free ( lol a chance in a million i know )

[11:50] <Jowi> Lcarsdata, of course not. it need to be plugged in.

[11:51] <mjbrooks> Lcarsdata, will your computer run if it's not plugged in?
[11:51] <Lcarsdata> but then I can't use support :(

[11:53] <Yodude> _rd_" yes but i want something that will work well and i prefer natives, i don't want to encourage windows gaming
[11:53] <gabriel_> Does anybody know the way to sync pocket windows mobile 5 witn evolution ?
[11:53] <Jowi> Yodude, ET (Enemy Territory) is native Linux (as well as win)
[11:53] <Yodude> Flannel: well not specifically about WWII, but i can't see to find a killer graphis game for linux
[11:53] <_rd_> Yodude yeah I understand and agree

[11:56] <sacater> Yodude: yes, i can say yes officaially
[11:56] <ferret_0568> Dunno
[11:56] <Flannel> Yodude: you can go ahead and try it in beta now, if you're that eager.
[11:56] <sacater> Yodude: the 19th is the official release date
[11:56] <sacater> Yodude: yep, BETA is out

[11:57] <Yodude> too buggy for me
[11:57] <ferret_0568> My friend said not to depend on that release date. He has seen Feisty get pushed back about a month
[11:57] <sacater> Yodude: erm..... what about when its released
[11:57] <mjbrooks> i'm in th beta now    good stuff
[11:57] <sacater> bugs still
[11:57] <ferret_0568> The beta is alright
[11:57] <sacater> thats teh whole point of bugteam
[11:57] <ferret_0568> I'm using it now

[11:58] <floyd^> that is what netstat -rn tells me in linux
[11:58] <ferret_0568> Otherwise, it was smooth
[11:58] <mjbrooks> sacater, lol
[11:58] <ferret_0568> It actually fixed problems with Edgy
[11:59] <ferret_0568> Like, close laptop lid, GUI crashes and restarts
[11:59] <Yodude> sacater: i doubt tht would be useful. Ubuntu isn't like windows, so it shoudln't have all those bugs when it's released
[12:00] <teenbeat2007> hi guys, is there a route planner europe for linux wich is a offline one like example route66 or something
[12:00] <Yodude> sacater: i hear even when it was Alpha it was as stable as edgy
[12:00] <variant> sacater: it's true, the major bugs get solved first, then it's released..
[12:00] <Flannel> Yodude: The stability of a release is only as stable as the variety of hardware it's been tested on.
[12:00] <Yodude> sacater: so i bet it's really stable in core
[12:00] <McQueen> hi, how can i mount ntfs partition?
[12:00] <cypher1> floyd^: you do not have a default gateway .. are you still able to access ?
[12:00] <mjbrooks> Yodude, lol   LIES!
[12:00] <sacater> variant: thats why I wait a week, with more users there are more bugs that show up :P
[12:00] <variant> Yodude: thats not strictly true, but it wasn't exactly what you would call "unstable"
[12:00] <Edulix>  is it possible to set the poll_interval for a cdrom drive in linux?
[12:00] <boarder-winterma> hello ;)
[12:00] <cypher1> !ntfs | McQueen
[12:00] <variant> Edulix: with hdparm yes
[12:01] <ubotu> McQueen: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[12:01] <variant> Edulix: i beleive so
[12:01] <Yodude> Flannel: i'm also aiting for it cuz i think it will impress many more people than edgy willm, i'm promoting ubuntu to my friends btw
[12:01] <floyd^> cypher1: i set it up in system-networking but it disapear after i close the window
[12:01] <mjbrooks> I'm   trying to hunt down a bug now... really weird
[12:01] <McQueen> cypher1, thanks
[12:01] <variant> Edulix: read man hdparm, there is rather a lot you can do with that command that can't be done in "other" os's
[12:01] <wabz> !fix-crappy-nss-startup-bug
[12:01] <ferret_0568> I had problems with soft lockups under Edgy with this wireless card, only happens if it has been equal to or sometimes greater than 24 hours that I have had it plugged in
[12:01] <Yodude> Banshee 0.12 will be available for it, that's a killer app i think
[12:02] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: do you know your partitions
[12:02] <ferret_0568> Only time will tell if Feisty fixes that, too
[12:02] <cypher1> floyd^: thats strange
[12:02] <mjbrooks> launch a random app    it starts to load then disappears
[12:02] <floyd^> cypher1: tnx :)
[12:02] <McQueen> teenbeat2007, yeap
[12:02] <cypher1> floyd^: can you add manually and see whether it is ok ?
[12:02] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: ok start a temilnal
[12:02] <Edulix> variant: uhm ok. I just want to do it because it's what worked for sb as a solution similar to the errors I'm getting.  see: http://rafb.net/p/xB0AaB46.html
[12:02] <bambie> i'm trying to burn an iso image but its not being written on a cd for some reason?
[12:02] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: and type next
[12:02] <bambie> i'm using nero burning rom
[12:02] <Yodude> i'm hoping Feisty will be a Vista killer
[12:03] <variant> Yodude: it won't be due to a lack of games.. will be better in many other ways though
[12:03] <Jowi> mjbrooks, run it in a terminal and see if you get an error message
[12:03] <Yodude> from the screenshots i've seen i can tell it's getting more and more idiot-friendly, so more ppl will be happily using it
[12:03] <Edulix> previously in edgy with 2.6.17 kernel just freezed, but now it works really slowly. the "solution" (but for a pcmcia) : http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/HyperNews/get/pcmcia/ide/28/1/1/1/1.html
[12:03] <McQueen> teenbeat, i am waiting your command
[12:03] <floyd^> cypher1: i did alter the file /etc/network/interfaces with the line 'gateway 85.120.84.1'
[12:03] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: sudo mkdir /mnt/name of first map like example /mnt/win
[12:03] <Yodude> variant: but dopn't you think many of the games in development for linux that are really promising will be mature in about 1-2 years?
[12:03] <cypher1> floyd^: can you please paster your /etc/network/interfaces also ?
[12:04] <mjbrooks> Jowi, thats the thing   it's infrequent and random   so I'll have to launch all my apps in a terminal until I find one
[12:04] <ferret_0568> I told my friend that I wanted to hold off on the Feisty upgrade, because I thought it would be total chaos, and he said, no, it isn't chaos, so I downloaded it the following day (yesterday) and installed it.
[12:04] <Yodude> anyway if linux gets 10% of the market in the near future, i'm sure devel. will have to release games for it
[12:04] <floyd^> ok cypher1... will be back in a few
[12:04] <cypher1> floyd^: one more thing are you able to ping 85.120.84.1
[12:04] <variant> Yodude: sure.. some are nice but nothing that compares with the likes of crysis or other simmilar ones for example.
[12:04] <teenbeat2007> McQueen:you first make the directorys where you want to mount your partitions
[12:04] <floyd^> yes
[12:04] <TomaszD> anyone knows how to check why mpd isn't starting on bootup? I'm using icecast2 + mpd
[12:04] <Jowi> mjbrooks, what a time waster :)
[12:05] <floyd^> ping works for my ip and the gateway @ cypher1
[12:05] <Flannel> TomaszD: did you reconfigure mpd?
[12:05] <mjbrooks> Jowi, lol
[12:05] <jarwound> Could someone please help me with a problem i have regarding Ubuntu and Moniter set up?
[12:05] <markvandenborre> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/53062
[12:05] <ferret_0568> Are more people rumored to use Linux than OS X?
[12:05] <boarderwinterman> moin again first day on xubuntu and everything running :D
[12:05] <TomaszD> Flannel, well yes, but when I reboot it doesn't start - Stopping Music Player Daemon: not running or no pid_file set.
[12:05] <variant> ferret_0568: that is not a mesurable figure
[12:05] <McQueen> teenbeat, i create it
[12:05] <Yodude> imagine a world where every piece of software would work on any OS, that would be heaven
[12:06] <TomaszD> Flannel, any experience with icecast2 + mpd? it seems mpd needs to start first, and then icecast2
[12:06] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: so for everey partition you do the line sudo mkdir /mnt/win, win1, win2 or any name you want
[12:06] <ferret_0568> Well...I know Linux users are not required to register their copies
[12:06] <jarwound> Could someone please help me with my problem regarding Ubuntu and moniter defults>
[12:06] <Flannel> TomaszD: so, you do have /etc/mpd.conf?
[12:06] <variant> ferret_0568: but, linux being a kernel and not an operating system i would say yes, by a long long way. considering that linux is used on a large number of routers and mobile phones as well as other devices
[12:06] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: tell me if your done
[12:06] <Jowi> mjbrooks, speaking of which, I just spent two full days trying to play the original Diablo with wine. finally I gave up and installed win98 in qemu. works perfectly.
[12:06] <xipietotec> okay, I'm running off the live cd, how do I mount my local hard drive? (IT's running ubuntu, I'm doing recovery)
[12:06] <Lcarsdata> Yodude: that would work if everyone used a cross-platform language like perl and php
[12:06] <gradin> jarwound: whats your problem?
[12:06] <McQueen> teenbeat2007, i create win directory
[12:07] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: ok only one partition then
[12:07] <Edulix> variant: it seems hdparm doesn't allow that
[12:07] <Lcarsdata> Yodude: and python
[12:07] <boarderwinterman> xubuntu is my first distribution without any problems with ati-driver ;)
[12:07] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: ok fill in next line
[12:07] <Yodude> Lcarsdata: they're too greedy to let it be
[12:07] <variant> Edulix: what exactly do you want to do again?
[12:07] <ferret_0568> I know my Linksys WRT54G (older revision), runs Linux 2.4.x
[12:07] <jarwound> gradin my problem is that i have two moniters, one digital and one analogue. i need the digital moniter to be defult for Ubuntu, however when the analogue is plugged in alongside the digital ubuntu defults to displaying on that one.
[12:07] <teenbeat2007> McQueen:sudo mount /dev/hd? /mnt/win
[12:08] <ferret_0568> Runs great
[12:08] <TomaszD> Flannel, of course, configured to output a shoutcast stream, I'm listening to it now. The thing is, mpd doesn't start on boot up which makes it a little less usable for remote listening
[12:08] <gradin> jarwound: i belive thats controled at the bios level
[12:08] <Edulix> variant: did you see the repeated errors in http://rafb.net/p/xB0AaB46.html ? they happen in my system randomly, without reading any CD in the drive hdc
[12:08] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: tell me if your ready
[12:08] <mjbrooks> Jowi, just like in the real world drivers and wine are not always a good combination
[12:08] <Flannel> TomaszD: what does `sudo /etc/init.d/mpd restart` give you?
[12:08] <TomaszD> ie. begging my brother to start mpd, and then restart icecast2, or doing it by myself via vnc, no fun Flannel
[12:09] <Jowi> jarwound, if it is like that when you start the computer you can probably set it in bios. if it is after linux has booted you can probably switch the default monitor around in xorg.conf
[12:09] <variant> Edulix: checking
[12:09] <ferret_0568> btw, after you get your problem fixed, a very good system monitor is conky, it can display so many stats, plus monitor MPD
[12:09] <jarwound> ok gradin ill boot up into bios and see if i can fix it from there, brb
[12:09] <Edulix> variant: in previous kernel version, my system just freezed, but now in 2.6.20 it goes veryyyyyy slow but still kinda works and that's how I got access to dmesg
[12:09] <McQueen> teenbeat2007, i am ready
[12:09] <TomaszD> Flannel, Stopping Music Player Daemon: not running or no pid_file set. Starting Music Player Daemon: mpd.
[12:09] <TomaszD> Flannel, that's after a reboot
[12:09] <teenbeat2007> ok go to directory /mnt and see if the partition is there
[12:09] <Flannel> TomaszD: you don't need to restart icecast.  It'll stream regardless of whether it has a source client.
[12:10] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: and if you can get in
[12:10] <TomaszD> Flannel, thing is, it wouldn't work. strange.
[12:10] <variant> Edulix: seems like a buggy peice of kernel code could cause that.. i'm not a kernel dev though. my advice would be to run some tests with hdparm for example: hdparm -Tt /dev/sda
[12:10] <Edulix> variant: the feeling I get is that some high kernel priority thread tries to use the system. and every time kernel gets an interruption (i.e. I press a key), it freezes for a while
[12:10] <Flannel> TomaszD: seems like you should give it a pid ;)
[12:10] <TomaszD> Flannel, I restarted mpd, but it had problems with opening the audio device. So I restarted icecast2 and it's running fine
[12:11] <Edulix> variant: http://rafb.net/p/2Pus8i43.html
[12:11] <Flannel> TomaszD: believe that's because, without a PID, it doesn't stop the old mpd.  Or, something like that.
[12:11] <McQueen> teenbeat2007, bash: cd: win: Permission denied
[12:11] <ferret_0568> What is a good Linux PDA? I want wireless and MP3 players with OGG + FLAC also
[12:11] <ferret_0568> And, a movie player
[12:11] <jarwound> back gradin and i cant see anything in the BIOS to change the moniter defult. On XP it has a choice, is there no function of similar setup on Ubuntu?
[12:11] <Lcarsdata> is a green box yes or no in synaptic
[12:11] <TomaszD> Flannel, I want to just workaround this, is there a file I could put just put both restart commands into that get processed every boot?
[12:11] <ferret_0568> You know, the stuff that costs way too much on Palm OS?
[12:12] <teenbeat2007> ok one moment
[12:12] <Flannel> TomaszD: Give it a PID file.
[12:12] <McQueen> teenbeat2007, i  created link to  wrong partitions?
[12:12] <gradin> jarwound: hrm... kde or gnome?
[12:12] <Edulix> variant: notice that it's a cdrom, do cdrom drives support -tT?
[12:12] <Enphenitie> When I use the command sudo cp -r, the folder I copy is read-only.  How do I make it not read-only?
[12:12] <ferret_0568> <even instant messengers cost money...grumble...grumble>
[12:12] <TomaszD> Flannel, what is this PID file you speak of? Teach me about it.
[12:12] <Enphenitie> Or rather, I don't have permissions to view it, change it, ect
[12:12] <jarwound> gradin gnome
[12:12] <Jowi> TomaszD, "pidof programname" will give you its PIDnumber
[12:12] <teenbeat2007> what hdd do you have hda or different
[12:12] <McQueen> teenbeat2007, how can i change the link?
[12:12] <variant> Edulix: yes your right sorry, thought it was scsi disk
[12:12] <teenbeat2007> same line but instead unmount
[12:13] <TomaszD> pidof mpd 1939 1938 1936
[12:13] <variant> Edulix: still should support the read tests though, i have done it myself
[12:13] <jarwound> gradin : gnome
[12:13] <variant> Edulix: it's not usb cdrom or someting is it?
[12:13] <gradin> jarwound: hrm i don't know much about gnome
[12:13] <Jowi> TomaszD, so you have 3 players open. "killall mpd" and then restart it.
[12:13] <variant> Edulix: try turning off dma access (hdparm -d 0 /dev/hdc
[12:13] <Edulix> variant: no, normal. laptop integrated cdrom
[12:13] <jarwound> gradin ok thanks anyway for the help
[12:13] <teenbeat2007> sudo unmount /dev/hd? /mnt/win
[12:13] <gradin> jarwound: i would check in the systems settings menues
[12:13] <Peter_Johnsson> what kernel version is in the latest daily build (25th)?
[12:13] <gradin> thats about all i got ssry
[12:14] <Peter_Johnsson> and is the jmicron problem fixed in it?
[12:14] <variant> Edulix: ok, your first pastebin link showd sda at the top.. threw me off
[12:14] <jarwound> ok gradin thanks, ill do some messing about until i find out how to do it
[12:14] <Edulix> variant: maybe what happened is that I had no cdrom in the drive? :P
[12:14] <bambie> variant my wireless network is not working on my laptop
[12:14] <bambie> for some reason
[12:14] <bambie> i've an old version of ubuntu tho
[12:14] <bambie> its 5.04
[12:14] <TomaszD> Jowi, I killed it, started it and it still shows three numbers, but different
[12:14] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: tell when ready
[12:14] <TomaszD> maybe it uses three instances or something
[12:14] <variant> bambie: you have to upgrade, wireless support has only recently become usefull in ubuntu
[12:14] <McQueen> teenbeat2007, bash: cd: win: Permission denied
[12:15] <Jowi> TomaszD, maybe. i've never used that prog... :-/
[12:15] <TomaszD> oh
[12:15] <Edulix> variant: now I get this http://rafb.net/p/qNpDnI22.html . I'll try to set dma off now
[12:15] <bambie> variant i downloaded 6.10
[12:15] <teenbeat2007> ok are you root or norm user
[12:15] <variant> bambie: so install
[12:15] <bambie> well i can't burn
[12:15] <cypher1> !wifi | bambie
[12:15] <ubotu> bambie: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:16] <TomaszD> Jowi, is there a file I could put some commands on root permissions that gets processed every boot, preferably sometime at the end of booting?
[12:16] <variant> bambie: why not?
[12:16] <bambie> i dont know
[12:16] <bambie> its just pissing me off now
[12:16] <McQueen> teenbeat2007, r u there?
[12:16] <bambie> burning as an image
[12:16] <Jowi> TomaszD, but that is usually how I resolve that problem. It can happen from time to time.
[12:16] <teenbeat2007> yeah i am
[12:16] <Edulix> variant: happens the same, but it is slower now
[12:16] <cypher1> bambie: you do not need to burn if you are planning to upgrade
[12:16] <variant> bambie: run apt-get install k3b, it will allow you to burn the iso no problem
[12:16] <variant> Edulix: ok, turn it back on
[12:16] <variant> Edulix: is that the dmesg output?
[12:16] <cypher1> bambie: mount through loop back device
[12:16] <Jowi> TomaszD, /etc/init.d and /etc/rc2.d
[12:16] <bambie> cypher1 well i've to burn cause i'm on desktop right now
[12:16] <bambie> and i dont have an internet on my laptop
[12:16] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: try this line
[12:16] <bambie> so i downloaded 6.10 on my desktop so i can burn and boot on my laptop
[12:16] <variant> Edulix: please pastbin the output from hdparm -Ii /dev/hdc
[12:17] <Edulix> variant: no it was the hdparm output
[12:17] <shin75> ciao
[12:17] <cypher1> bambie: you have downloaded 6.10 alternate disk or the normal one ?
[12:17] <Edulix> http://rafb.net/p/YOvBrZ86.html
[12:17] <variant> Edulix: when dma is switched off, see if you still get hte error messages you first pasted to me
[12:17] <Edulix> that's for you variant
[12:17] <teenbeat2007> sudo mount /dev/hd? -o uid=0 umask=22 /mnt/win
[12:17] <bambie> http://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/linux/ubuntu-releases/6.10/ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso
[12:17] <TomaszD> Jowi, yes, well, so maybe I could modify the /etc/init.d/mpd and /etc/init.d/icecast2 to start later or in different order. Is there a gui for this?
[12:18] <epkphoto> yay, www.ubuntu.com is working for me again :)
[12:18] <bambie> cypher i'm not sure i'm a newb :|
[12:18] <Edulix> variant: the first errors I pasted to you ( http://rafb.net/p/xB0AaB46.html ) happens only from time to time so I cannot tell you
[12:18] <McQueen> teenbeat2007: i dont want to do wrong. first i want to be sure partition. sorry wait pls
[12:19] <variant> Edulix: seems that you're not the only one with issues with that drive (on any os). seems like it's a cheap/crappy drive
[12:19] <variant> Edulix: is it a combo dvd/cdrw?
[12:19] <Lcarsdata2> http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Lcarsdata/Factoids
[12:19] <Lcarsdata2> sorry, wrong chan
[12:19] <cypher1> bambie: thats not alternate
[12:19] <Edulix> variant: yes
[12:19] <Jowi> TomaszD, to explain. /etc/init.d contains scripts to be executed at boot. /etc/rc2.d contain symlinks to the programs in /etc/init.d. each symlink has got a letter S or K (Start or Kill), a number 0-99 (priority) and the name of the script. creating a symlink to mpd with the name S99mpd would Start mpd last (0 is first, 99 is last)
[12:19] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: come to channel #ubuntu-nl please
[12:19] <mjbrooks> bambie, you're using nero?
[12:19] <Jowi> TomaszD, no gui as far as I know but the principle is simple.
[12:19] <Edulix> variant: why do you say so, that it seems that it's troublesome?
[12:19] <bambie> yes
[12:19] <bambie> i've nero and infra
[12:19] <cypher1> bambie: i guess  anyway its better not to upgrade from hoary (5.04) to edgy (6.10)
[12:19] <Edulix> variant: I didn't find info about that drive
[12:19] <variant> Edulix: combo drives suck generally, much more buggy than seperates (i know its a laptop though so not much choice for you
[12:20] <TomaszD> Jowi, wow, that's... that explains some things I've been wondering about
[12:20] <variant> Edulix: look up the serial number from the output of hdparm -iI /dev/hdc
[12:20] <bambie> iso file is rar
[12:20] <Edulix> variant: where, in google? ;)
[12:20] <bambie> i dont have to extract do it?
[12:20] <cypher1> bambie: then you can burn the iso image and install it
[12:20] <variant> Edulix: http://www.google.ie/search?q=TS-L632D&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[12:20] <mjbrooks> bambie, you're looking for a new data cd but specifically  you want to create a cd from and image
[12:20] <cypher1> bambie: nero recognizes iso image
[12:20] <mjbrooks> bambie, not sure what menu that would be in
[12:21] <bambie> let me try again
[12:21] <bambie> lol
[12:21] <variant> Edulix: you might be able to get a firmware update
[12:21] <mjbrooks> bambie, someting like File->New->CD from Image
[12:22] <bambie> ok
[12:22] <Jowi> TomaszD, if you already have a symlink for mpd and icecast in /etc/rc2.d you can simply rename them to change the start order :)
[12:22] <mjbrooks> bambie, or it could be under a menu called Tools or something
[12:22] <TomaszD> Jowi, yes yes I see! S20icecast2 and S30mpd
[12:22] <bambie> Burn image
[12:22] <bambie> copy cd
[12:22] <mjbrooks> bambie, Burn Image
[12:23] <bambie> ok
[12:23] <Edulix> variant: it seems like a driver problem, that's also what is said also in http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=188364 . they're havingdifferent problems
[12:23] <bambie> ok now
[12:23] <mjbrooks> bambie, working?
[12:23] <bambie> it asked me for a path
[12:23] <bambie> i picked that file up
[12:23] <bambie> ubuntu.whatever.iso
[12:23] <bambie> i click on burn
[12:23] <mjbrooks> bambie, ok
[12:23] <bambie> no it says Save image as?
[12:24] <bambie> File name. Image
[12:24] <variant> Edulix: ask for a drive replacement imo
[12:24] <TomaszD> Jowi, thank you! I've actually learned something today! I'll restart the machine and see if this solution helped
[12:24] <bambie> Save as Type image file (*.nrg)
[12:24] <Jowi> no probs TomaszD
[12:24] <mjbrooks> bambie, oooh
[12:24] <bambie> yeah like whats that supose to mean?
[12:24] <mjbrooks> bambie, that's the opposite of what you want to do
[12:25] <mjbrooks> bambie, that would create an image from a CD
[12:25] <mjbrooks> bambie, not a CD from an image
[12:25] <variant> Edulix: try other os's like slax live cd or knoppix. if they work perfectly then there must be soemting you can do to fix in ubuntu
[12:25] <mjbrooks> bambie, choose File->New->Data CD
[12:26] <floyd^> i have an amd athlon processor... what architecture should i choose when downloading a package?
[12:26] <Edulix> variant: hehe the problem is that it only happens randomly =) maybe twice a day, or maybe twice a week
[12:27] <felixhummel> When I try to unmount an HD, I get "device is busy". How can I find out which process locks this device?
[12:27] <bambie> ok
[12:27] <bambie> now
[12:27] <rbs-tito> top will list all of your processes, maybe one will be familiar
[12:27] <mjbrooks> bambie, when you're in a new data CD project look for something like Tools->Image to CD
[12:27] <bambie> yes now i've something lke
[12:27] <bambie> ISO1
[12:27] <Jowi> felixhummel, it can be as simple as "cd /" before unmounting it.
[12:28] <detectiveinspekt> When I open a file such as within openoffice why does it display folders with the . infront of it, such as .bash_rc, I don't want this
[12:28] <bambie> NEW
[12:28] <bambie> and rest is all blank
[12:28] <detectiveinspekt> sorry like .wine etc
[12:28] <Jowi> felixhummel, just check that no applications are in the directory where the cdrom is located.
[12:28] <felixhummel> Jowi, good guess, but I can think that far ;)
[12:29] <AmyRose> .bashrc is a file, not a folder o.o
[12:29] <mjbrooks> bambie, what version of Nero is it?
[12:29] <felixhummel> It was the nfs-kernel-server...
[12:29] <felixhummel> solved
[12:29] <TomaszD> Jowi, problems with icecast2 gone, but mpd still doesn't start at boot at all.
[12:29] <TomaszD> :(
[12:29] <bambie> 5.5.9.0
[12:29] <variant> Edulix: yeah, like i say - cheapass hardware
[12:30] <Peter_Johnsson> does anyone know if the jmicron problem fixed in the latest daily build?
[12:30] <variant> Edulix: if they won't replace it consider getting a replacement for your self. make sure it's a decent brand. is the drive bay swappable?
[12:30] <variant> Peter_Johnsson: yes, seems that it works
[12:30] <mjbrooks> bambie, so you have a File->Burn Image?
[12:31] <bambie> yes i do
[12:31] <mjbrooks> bambie, and when you click it it give you a save dialog and not an open dialog?
[12:31] <bambie> is asks me for a file name
[12:31] <bambie> and when i pick up *.iso file which i wana burn
[12:31] <Jowi> TomaszD, you should look into the documentation for mpd then. you might need to configure it.
[12:32] <bambie> and than it asks me to Save an Image file?
[12:32] <Kooka> moin moin zusammen gg
[12:32] <Edulix> variant: I think I first start working without the cdrom drive for a week, because I don't even know if that's what is causing the problem although I suspect it is.. well it must be according to those messages!
[12:32] <bambie> like wth
[12:32] <mjbrooks> bambie, http://www.wizardskeep.org/mainhall/tutor/neroiso.html
[12:32] <TomaszD> Jowi, I'm doing this now, there's one change I can make ... bbl
[12:32] <variant> Edulix: yeah, they can be missleading though.. might be the only visible error in a big chain of problems for all you know :)
[12:32] <McQueen> teenbeat2007: i am here
[12:33] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: ok
[12:33] <bambie> ok now
[12:33] <bambie> the file i've here is
[12:33] <bambie> Rar
[12:33] <Edulix> variant: I feel like I should ask in LKM to know what is causing exactly the problem
[12:33] <ranpha> Hi, i just installed the LAMP server. and followed the wiki. Create a databse etc. Then i need to get torrentflux working (which neds adodb and dbcommon-config) and no suddenly my mysql-server5 package is broken and won't start. Can't even logon in anymore says  Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'
[12:33] <variant> Edulix: I wouldn't think so
[12:33] <variant> Edulix: file an ubuntu bug, it's a good way to find others that hav ethe same issue
[12:33] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: sorry there where a few complening about inglisch on a dutch channel, there are allways a few....
[12:33] <mjbrooks> bambie, rar is not an image file    it's an archive   like zip or gzip
[12:33] <mjbrooks> bambie, you have to decompress it
[12:33] <variant> Peter_Johnsson: please see this bug report: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/57502
[12:34] <bambie> how do i do that?
[12:34] <variant> Peter_Johnsson: it may not be included in hte releases yet
[12:34] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: ok listen, check all your partitions and see wich parts you have
[12:34] <bambie> decompress = extract right?
[12:34] <rbs-tito> yes
[12:34] <teenbeat2007> how quicly do need it
[12:34] <Edulix> variant: ok, but what I really want to know is what is exactly causing the problem, to understand it
[12:35] <Edulix> you know, it drives me crazy. If i know what is it, then it will be a lot easier
[12:35] <variant> Edulix: fileing a bug report will help speed that process :) don't be looking for instant resolution on someting like this though
[12:35] <bambie> rbs yes was answer of my question?
[12:35] <McQueen> teenbeat2007:   hda  hda1  hda2  hda3  hda5  hda6  hdc
[12:35] <rbs-tito> bambie: Yes it was.
[12:35] <felixhummel> I did the following: "sudo mkdir /media/external; sudo chown me\: /media/external; sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hdc1 /media/external". When I "ls /media/external" I get a permission denied error. Help please!
[12:35] <Edulix> variant: I know :) thanks for your help!
[12:35] <HolyGoat> ranpha: Can you login through the shell based client?
[12:35] <mjbrooks> oops  got disconnected
[12:35] <variant> Edulix: welcome
[12:35] <bambie> hrmm
[12:35] <bambie> ok
[12:35] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: ok what i need to know exactly is wich one is the ntfs
[12:36] <ranpha> Holygoat no....what is strange because i create all my databases already and set password on root and my own username
[12:36] <McQueen> teenbeat2007: i am not sure.... i have got two partition on windows. and they are ntfs
[12:36] <HolyGoat> ranpha: when you run "ps aux | grep mysql" do you see any references to /usr/sbin/mysqld or mysqld_safe?
[12:36] <TomaszD> Jowi, sorry, is there a logfile I could look into in order to check why is this thing not starting? it *should* be starting, it'd enabled and starts fine manually, it has all the predispositions of a fine deamon...
[12:37] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: ok when you installed ubuntu wich hdd did you took
[12:37] <Jowi> TomaszD, I don't know. most logs are in /var/log
[12:37] <ranpha> Holygoat : this is everthing is see...root      9267  0.0  0.0   2808   752 pts/1    R+   12:37   0:00 grep mysql
[12:38] <TomaszD> Jowi, ok
[12:38] <HolyGoat> ranpha: That indicates MySQL is definitely not running. Can you try "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start" ?
[12:38] <ranpha> Holygoat : that fails
[12:38] <Peter_Johnsson> variant: i tried it on the beta which was kernel 2.6.20-12 and it didnt work. i think the relevant launchpad is https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/84964
[12:38] <HolyGoat> ranpha: Error message?
[12:38] <McQueen> teenbeat2007: i have got only one hdd. i deleted a partition from windows before i ubuntu installation. then i choose the "install to free space" option
[12:39] <ranpha> Holygoat nope only the fail
[12:39] <HolyGoat> ranpha: It doesn't give you any message?
[12:40] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: in my case i have two hdd 1=hda 2=hdb 2 dvds floppy so i had hda 1 and 5 and hdb 1 and 5
[12:40] <HolyGoat> ranpha: Does /usr/sbin/mysqld exist?
[12:40] <ranpha> Holygoat : No but i tried to reinstall it and i alos get fail with this invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed.
[12:41] <variant> Peter_Johnsson: well then, you seem to know more about it than me. launchpad is the first place that a fix will appear so untill you see something usefull there there is no point asking here if it's fixed (as you already know that its not)
[12:41] <Daemonik> What userland utility will put a laptop to sleep/suspend (not hibernate)?
[12:41] <ranpha> Holygoat : /usr/sbin/mysqld doens't exsist
[12:41] <McQueen> teenbeat2007: this a laptop. so i have got only 1 hdd and 1 dvd-rom
[12:41] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: try this then sudo mount /dev/hda5 uid=0 umask=022 /mnt/win
[12:41] <HolyGoat> ranpha: Hm, this reminds me.. My MySQL server upgrade wouldn't install either. I already had MySQL installed, so I didn't install the upgrade. It tried to use a predefined user to do something. I don't like that.
[12:41] <MWS_> does anyone know how long ubuntu is going to take to download if I download the dvd ISO (3.2gb) at 120kb/sec ?
[12:41] <teenbeat2007> ok
[12:42] <HolyGoat> ranpha: So MySQL isn't installed on your system at all.
[12:42] <variant> MWS_: can't you work it out?
[12:42] <Daemonik> MWS_, It's going to take a while. Torrent it.
[12:42] <HolyGoat> Let me see if I can reproduce that upgrade failure.
[12:42] <MWS_> variant: terrible at math
[12:42] <ranpha> Holygoat: seems like it ....but it was installed....no the reinstall won't work
[12:42] <bambie> it took me 30 mins on 419 kb/sec
[12:42] <nhy> can you run kde apps in gnome and vice versa?
[12:42] <Daemonik> nhy, yes
[12:42] <McQueen> teenbeat2007: the same log. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11983/
[12:42] <nhy> so then why are there special apps for kde
[12:43] <Daemonik> nhy, There is no such thing as being "inside" kde or gnome. THey are each a set of programs that draw the desktop manage windows provide a panel etc
[12:43] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: if it doesnt work now, ill be later on back to you with full support
[12:43] <ranpha> Holygoat : /usr/bin/mysqld does exist
[12:43] <variant> nhy: because kde uses qt and gnome uses gtk, they are different projects
[12:43] <variant> nhy: that does'nt stop you from mixing themthough
[12:43] <teenbeat2007> McQueen: i had this problem also a few days ago and i did have total of 5 ntfs partitions
[12:43] <HolyGoat> ranpha: Hm..
[12:43] <McQueen> teenbeat2007: ok so can i contect with you by e-mail way....?
[12:44] <teenbeat2007> i think there is alos the issue of root versus standard oem user
[12:44] <carson> how do i search for "foo" in a file and replace it with "bar"?
[12:44] <rickyfingers> carson: I think you want the sed command
[12:44] <m`kay> carson which editor?
[12:44] <ranpha> Holygoat : got it...i bind my adres to 192.0.0.1 ...but my machine is 10.0.0.1 :-)
[12:44] <teenbeat2007> yes you can bakker.roelof.2005@gmail.com or skype usernm fam_bakker2006
[12:44] <carson> thanks.
[12:44] <crimsun> Peter_Johnsson: 13.21 was tagged recently; it has not been NEWed and thus is not in the archive, nor is it the default kernel. So no.
[12:44] <Peter_Johnsson> i guess i mean, will the fix when its released actualyl be released as part of an .iso i dont want to have to recompile kernels and stuff..
[12:44] <HolyGoat> ranpha: How did that make a difference exactly?
[12:44] <nhy> variant, so why do people bother to make apps for kde or gnome if there are existing apps for the other desktop environment?
[12:45] <epi> Extremely noob question, I just put the Ubuntu ISO onto a CD-r on my desktop, do I install "from file" or "create with file"?
[12:45] <teenbeat2007> messenger  teenbeat_of_the_50s@hotmail.com

[12:46] <HolyGoat> ranpha: ok
[12:46] <crimsun> Peter_Johnsson: that kernel has only been tagged; it has not been uploaded or accepted yet.
[12:46] <Peter_Johnsson> ah k
[12:46] <ranpha> Holygoat: thanks
[12:46] <Peter_Johnsson> so i guess i wait and the fix released notice will appear on launchpad then someone will say its in some daily build
[12:46] <HolyGoat> no problem

[12:55] <daziplqa> the problem is : after installing the new NIC the sound card became not operational
[12:55] <Suurorca> yes well, I'm relatively sure that my problem is that some configuration junk carried over through the upgrade since everything worked perfectly well on the feisty live...

[01:13] <valehru> time to take the plunge and install feisty...wish me luck
[01:13] <daziplqa> crimsun : ooops, i found something horrible
[01:14] <alucard> i dont understand why i cant boot windows after i installed ubuntu
[01:14] <ikonia> alucard: whats the error
[01:14] <orange1> whats the cmd to scan for wireless networks?
[01:14] <shafto> Anyone know the command to see whether the Nvidia drivers are working or not?
[01:14] <orange1> sudo nvidia-settings
[01:14] <daziplqa> crimsun : i found all checkboxes @ user privileges tap are removed
[01:15] <rickyfingers_> orange1: sudo iwlist scanning <interface name>
[01:15] <samu> How do I install all these screensavers in xscreensaver that are listed as "Not Installed"
[01:15] <Bhaskar> in edubuntu, LTSP is built in or not ??
[01:15] <ikonia> Bhaskar: ltsp ?
[01:15] <gizmo_the_great1> hi. I've screwed up my Ubuntu Dapper and GIMP setup. I tried to install the GTK so that I could read RAW digital files and the tool utraw and a few other dependancies. Most of it was installed from source. Anyway, in the end I discovered that I could run 'sudo aptitude install gimp-ufraw' which I did, but now GIMP does not run at all. Any ideas how I can fix (I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling via Synaptic - I th
[01:15] <gizmo_the_great1> ink its one of the other things causing the problem)
[01:15] <Bhaskar> ya
[01:16] <Bhaskar> ikonia, ya
[01:16] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: then thats your fault from installing from source, and breaking your dependency tree
[01:16] <Bhaskar> ikonia, linux terminal server package
[01:16] <ikonia> Bhaskar: what is ltsp ?
[01:16] <ikonia> Bhaal: ahhh
[01:16] <ikonia> Bhaskar: ahhhh - no idea
[01:16] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: oh right.
[01:16] <orange1> rickyfingers_: how do i connect to it ?
[01:17] <Bhaskar> who knows better about edubuntu??
[01:17] <alucard> ikonia, i just cant seem to get it to work it will say like invalid device and stuff like that
[01:17] <orange1> !edubuntu
[01:17] <ubotu> Edubuntu is an Ubuntu derivative aimed at schools and educational institutions. For more info, see http://www.edubuntu.org
[01:17] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: do you have any ideas on how I go about fixing it? I did not think installing from source was dangerous particularily?
[01:17] <lnostdal> gizmo_the_great1, try removing libraries and stuff under /usr/local .. dunno if that will help though
[01:17] <ikonia> Bhaskar: #edubuntu ?
[01:17] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: re-install
[01:17] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: already tried :-(
[01:17] <ikonia> alucard: apologies, I missed your initial question
[01:18] <rickyfingers_> orange1: sorry wasn't paying attention.  iwlist scanning <interface-name> will give you a list of ssid's for wireless networks that are out there.
[01:18] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: I mean re-install ubuntu
[01:18] <Flannel> gizmo_the_great1: not dangerous per se, just the fact that by doing it, you've negated the point of package management
[01:18] <daziplqa> thanx to ALLAH and then crimsun and orange1, the sound card seems will work after logging out
[01:18] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: oh dear. Isnt that 'The Windows'' way though?
[01:18] <alucard> ikonia: it was about grub and how it wont load windows
[01:18] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: no - its the user error broke his system way
[01:18] <robdeman> folks I just reinstalled the OS, optimized as webserver (terminal only, no GUI). I have software raid1, 2x serial ATA 500GB drives. Everytime the OS needs to perform some HDD activity the system locksup for a short while (hdd leds goes on.. machine freezes..) hdd led goes off.. machine responds again...
[01:18] <gizmo_the_great1> Flannel: i see - thanks
[01:18] <daziplqa> all : thanx to ALLAH and then crimsun and orange1, the sound card seems will work after logging out
[01:18] <ikonia> alucard: ooh yes, can you detail your problem
[01:18] <orange1> daziplqa: all i did was say 'welcome'
[01:18] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: fair point
[01:18] <daziplqa> you are a good man
[01:19] <daziplqa> orange1 : thank you very much
[01:19] <alucard> ikonia: well, it doesnt load, im not sure if this is because im accessing the wrong device (im using hd0,0)
[01:19] <shafto> orange1, He has them installed yet they dont seem to be running, cause he doesnt get like the nvidia logo on startup
[01:19] <Flannel> gizmo_the_great1: Gimp is already installed, why did you install GTK anyway?
[01:19] <ikonia> alucard: what is the error
[01:19] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: surely there must be a "Scan for knackered dependencies and fix it" command though?
[01:19] <orange1> rickyfingers_: once i have the ssid -- how do i connect to it
[01:19] <rickyfingers_> orange1: after that, you configure your wnic to that ssid, and then you have to know some things about how the network is configured. is it using wep/wpa etc? is there a dhcp server handing out ip's or do you have to put in the ip/subnet mask yourself...default gw and nameserver address
[01:19] <alucard> but in this ubuntu grub it says that i need to load the kernel before i boot
[01:19] <daziplqa> crimsun : thank you very much
[01:19] <gizmo_the_great1> Flannel: because it cannot read RAW digital files froma camera
[01:19] <daziplqa> all : brb
[01:19] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: you've messed up your dependency tree, you'll struggle to get it back. Re-install
[01:19] <alucard> i had the same problem in gentoo and ubuntu
[01:19] <Flannel> gizmo_the_great1: dpkg only scans what it knows.  When you install random arbitrary other files, it doesn't know about them.
[01:19] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: OK - thanks
[01:19] <Flannel> gizmo_the_great1: so, a new version fixes it? or what?
[01:20] <LegolasV> is it possible to let the short dat format of my locale work like dd-mm-jjjj and not dd-mm-jj? (locale is nl_NL.utf8)
[01:20] <ikonia> alucard: I'll ask again, more specific "What happens when you try to boot windows"
[01:20] <tony__> fglrxinfo says that i have the right card, but 3d rendering does not work since i made a xgl session in feisty. Ideas?
[01:20] <guysmilie> I am a newbie wondering if it is advisable to run a firewall when using ubuntu, and if so is there one that is recommended?
[01:20] <Flannel> guysmilie: you already are
[01:20] <orange1> rickyfingers_: its just an open network - how can i connect to it thru the cmd line
[01:20] <ikonia> guysmilie: iptables is available
[01:20] <Flannel> !firewall | guysmilie
[01:20] <ubotu> guysmilie: 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).
[01:20] <alucard> ikonia: it says that you need to load kernel before you boot
[01:20] <ikonia> alucard: when you try to boot windows it says that ?
[01:21] <rickyfingers_> orange1: you put in the wirless settings with iwconfig
[01:21] <gizmo_the_great1> Flannel: from what I read you need to install GTK in order to install a special tool called utraw that enables the GIMP to read those files. Its not built into GIMOP by default
[01:21] <alucard> yah ikonia
[01:21] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: you read wrong
[01:21] <rickyfingers_> for example iwconfig eth0 essid "open-network"
[01:21] <ikonia> alucard: thats very strange as thats not even a windows error message
[01:21] <guysmilie> is it necessary to do anything to configure the iptables to make the firewall effective?
[01:21] <alucard> ikonia, its not even loading windows man thats what im saying
[01:21] <ikonia> guysmilie: you have to configure the rule set
[01:21] <Flannel> gizmo_the_great1: GTK is in the repositories.  so, unless it's a version, or whtanot, you can do it with apt
[01:21] <ikonia> alucard: is it actually loading grub
[01:21] <rickyfingers_> then put in the regular network settings with ifconfig, or run dhclient to grab ip from dhcp server.
[01:22] <alucard> yah its loading grub
[01:22] <ikonia> alucard: can you boot into ubuntu
[01:22] <alucard> yah
[01:22] <alucard> im in it right now
[01:22] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: really? Will GIMP just read them when I ask it to (I didnt actually have any at the time - I was just getting my PC ready to)
[01:22] <ikonia> alucard: boot into ubuntu and pastebin your menu.lst
[01:22] <shafto> Can anyone help, the nvidia drivers show to be there and up to date, yet they dont seem to be actually running is there anyway to check this? Other than nvidia-settings
[01:22] <rickyfingers_> orange1: above comment was at you
[01:22] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: yes
[01:22] <guysmilie> ikonia where do i find the iptables/rules settings?
[01:22] <rambo3> krita pawns gimp
[01:22] <orange1> trying them now
[01:22] <ikonia> guysmilie: you have to write a script to set them using the "iptables" command
[01:22] <gizmo_the_great1> Flannel: It wasnt GTK that caused the problem. It was 'sudo aptitude install gimp-ufraw' that broke it
[01:22] <Edulix> variant: see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/75295/comments/9
[01:22] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: dam!!!!
[01:23] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: no it wasn't it was you installing things from source that broke it
[01:23] <rickyfingers_> shafto: try lsmod | grep nvidia
[01:23] <rickyfingers_> shafto: that will tell you if the driver is really loaded.
[01:23] <guysmilie> ok ty for info ikonia
[01:23] <Flannel> gizmo_the_great1: er, gimp-ufraw is in the repositories.  So, you can use it without installing anything from source.  I'm not sure why you were under the impression you needed to compile.
[01:24] <ikonia> Flannel: because he didn't read up on it, he just made some weak excuse about getting his PC ready
[01:24] <alucard> ikonia im getting a query failure when i try to send with pastebin
[01:24] <ikonia> alucard: use another pastebin
[01:24] <Otacon22> How to I bounce/redirect packets with iptables from external ips on a specific port to an another?
[01:24] <shafto> rickyfingers_, OKay that gives a response nvidia               6827412  32

[01:24] <alucard> http://pastebin.ca/409018
[01:24] <ikonia> Otacon22: join #netfilter for iptables rules support
[01:24] <gizmo_the_great1> Flannel: lol...I know Flannel, but I didn't realise that I could run 'sudo apt-get install gimp-utraw' until I'd done it all from source. I think this is what has caused the problem. Installed from source, and then from packages
[01:24] <orange1> rickyfingers: how can i tell if the connection was successful w/o pluggin my ethernet cable
[01:25] <rickyfingers> shafto: then without any other problems you can report, I would say the nvidia drivers are loaded.
[01:25] <rickyfingers> orange1: just type ping yahoo.com
[01:25] <gizmo_the_great1> Flannel: I'm still not great with understanding package stuff
[01:25] <shafto> rickyfingers, Okay thank
[01:25] <rickyfingers> orange1: if you get a response, then you know you're on the internet
[01:25] <BSG75> anyone know where the contrib directory or mythrename.pl files is for mythtv under ubuntu?
[01:25] <Flannel> gizmo_the_great1: gotcha.  Well, always search the repositories first.
[01:25] <lasking> who can tell why i can't see my mouse when i wine guildwars.exe
[01:25] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: if you don't undersand the package manager why did you install from source
[01:25] <orange1> this laptop is on ethernet + wireless -- i want to test the wirelss
[01:25] <rickyfingers> orange1: if you don't, there may be a problem with your name server, you might want to ping the default gateway
[01:25] <gizmo_the_great1> Flannel: true. A lesson learned.
[01:25] <alucard> ikonia: http://pastebin.ca/409018
[01:26] <rickyfingers> orange1: if you can't ping the default gateway, then you're not connected whatsoever
[01:26] <orange1> rickyfingers: if i pull the plug here - ill lose ya
[01:26] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: because at the time I did not realise there was a package for it. So I thought to compile from source was the only way
[01:26] <ikonia> alucard: I say - add the options "makeactive - and on the next line chainloader     +1"
[01:26] <ikonia> gizmo_the_great1: how can you not realise if you looked ?
[01:26] <alucard> is that hyphen supposed to be there ikonia
[01:26] <rickyfingers> orange1: be brave! pull the f***ing plug! If it doesn't work, you can get back.
[01:27] <ikonia> alucard: no - sorry
[01:27] <gizmo_the_great1> ikonia: I did a search initially but I think I searched wrong and it did not come up with anything. So I thought there was no package
[01:27] <lasking> no guys play guildwars?
[01:27] <ikonia> rickyfingers: no need for the language !
[01:27] <ikonia> lasking: join #winehq for better wine support
[01:27] <rickyfingers> ikonia: got it, I thought it was ok if we didn't write the whole thing out.  I will refrain from any four letter anglo saxon adjectives from now on.
[01:28] <orange1> rickyfingers: alrighty!
[01:28] <ikonia> rickyfingers: I think its more the implication than the word, eg: the darn thing has less intent than the "$$%$% thing
[01:28] <BSG75> wow, is there a reason why the entire contrib directory for mythtv is missing under ubuntu? or is it another apt?
[01:28] <McQueen> hi, how can i fix the problem "mount hda1
[01:28] <McQueen> mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs-fuse'
[01:28] <McQueen> "
[01:28] <gizmo_the_great1> Flannel: ikonia thanks for your help. I will run off now and think about re-installing by dam system again! Might as well upgrade to edgy while I am at it
[01:29] <ikonia> !fuse >mcQueen
[01:29] <Flannel> gizmo_the_great1: Sounds good.
[01:29] <rickyfingers> ikonia: I totally understand the need to watch my language.  I'm in the Army and we tend to let the curse words fly...
[01:29] <shafto> Is there anyway to actually check inside say; x11 config to see whether they are definatley running

[01:31] <lasking> who knows oracle channel? tell me ok?
[01:31] <Gunirus> lasking: #oracle ?
[01:31] <BSG75> none of you run mythtv under ubuntu?
[01:31] <lasking> #oracle not is
[01:32] <rickyfingers> BSG75 - no but I'm curious about it.  Have you ever gotten it working? How does it compare to something like TiVO?
[01:33] <rambo3> BSG75, there is complte ubuntu media center that includes parts of mythtv
[01:33] <BSG75> rickyfingers: been using Mythtv for many years now .. it is simply awesome .. and now a days it doesn't even need you to know anything to install
[01:33] <BSG75> rickyfingers: suggest using knoppmyth for beginner
[01:33] <mohkohn> Hello
[01:33] <Nalidor`> Yeah, Ubuntu MCE is what rambo is talking about
[01:33] <rickyfingers> BSG75: also, can you set it up to stream video to other computers accross the net?  If I could do that I would set a mythtv box up at my parents house so I could watch American TV from their place (I live in Germany)
[01:33] <BSG75> rambo3: I apt-get installed it
[01:33] <shafto> Could the fact that nvidia hasnt detected his card '"NVIDIA Corporation NV40? [Unknown nVidia Card] " stop the drivers from working?
[01:33] <mohkohn> I am trying to install freedb. I get a message make: command not found
[01:33] <rambo3> BSG75, http://www.digg.com/linux_unix/Linux_MCE_looks_hot_Download_Squad
[01:34] <rickyfingers> BSG75: on the other hand, maybe not...I'd eat up all their upstream bandwidth.
[01:34] <BSG75>  rickyfingers: yup doing it to my soft modded xbox right now :)
[01:34] <rickyfingers> BSG75: that's totally cool.  What kind of tuner/capture hardware do you use? Huappage?
[01:34] <rambo3> sorry : here ubuntu MCE : http://linuxmce.com/
[01:34] <BSG75> rambo3: I have mythtv already installed .. don't aske me why I chose to do it on ubuntu though .. normally use gentoo .. my wife loves ubuntu so I thought why not LOL
[01:35] <BSG75> rickyfingers: a rickity old hauppauge
[01:35] <BSG75> it just seems the entire contrib directory is missing from the ubuntu apt
[01:35] <Enselic> Is there a graphical password generator for Ubuntu?
[01:35] <BSG75> which is very odd
[01:36] <mohkohn> Configuration of cddbd is now complete.
[01:36] <mohkohn> You may now run "make".
[01:36] <rickyfingers> BSG75: I didn't pay close enough attention to your previous message. You're using a modded x-box to run myth tv?
[01:36] <dipswitch> What's the best place to ask hardware related questions?
[01:36] <comlag> hi
[01:36] <comlag> i have a simple question
[01:36] <rickyfingers> dipswitch: if it's about hardware and edgy, you're in the right place
[01:36] <shafto> Could the fact that nvidia hasnt detected his card '"NVIDIA Corporation NV40? [Unknown nVidia Card] " stop the drivers from working?
[01:36] <mohkohn> then it tells me: make: command not found
[01:36] <comlag> wats the command to start gnome from console?
[01:36] <Enselic> dipswitch: here, ##linux at freenode IRC, or forums at linuxquestions.org
[01:36] <comlag> ??
[01:36] <BSG75>  rickyfingers: you can for frontend .. but I have a shuttle that is plugged into my 52" tv for a while now .. so it's just a quiet settop box
[01:36] <Nalidor`> comlag: gdm I think
[01:37] <dipswitch> rickyfingers, ensilic: thanks
[01:37] <Ulixes> hello
[01:37] <rickyfingers> shafto:  is that what gets written to your xorg.conf file?
[01:37] <comlag> thats it? i type gdm and gnome starts?
[01:37] <Nalidor`> I think so
[01:37] <rambo3> rickyfingers, use linux MCE instead
[01:37] <Nalidor`> <-- semi-noob
[01:37] <shafto> rickyfingers, thats what it says yes
[01:37] <grayman> shafto, in this case the generic driver usualy works ok
[01:37] <comlag> at least u have the semi
[01:37] <comlag> can anyone confirm wat he said?
[01:37] <Ulixes> can i add another xeon into my server whitout problems or i've to configure something (with ubuntu..)?
[01:38] <shafto> grayman, Can they run games okay though?
[01:38] <rickyfingers> I don't think that's really a problem, I "NVIDIA Corporation NVIDIA Default Card0" is what got put in mine.
[01:38] <adaptr> going from one to two ?
[01:38] <Ulixes> yes
[01:38] <comlag> k..
[01:38] <adaptr> are you now running an SMP enabled kernel ?
[01:38] <rickyfingers> shafto: sorry above response was for you forgot to put the name.
[01:38] <adaptr> Ulixes: uname -a
[01:38] <grayman> Shaffox, if all installed properly
[01:38] <Ulixes> k
[01:38] <mohkohn> I figured it out. I just needed build essential to get make. This is a fresh ubuntu install.
[01:38] <Ulixes> can you go in private adaptr?
[01:38] <grayman> need to make sure that it does direct render
[01:38] <adaptr> Ulixes: no
[01:38] <Ulixes> k
[01:39] <Ulixes> Linux Server 2.6.17-11-386 #2 Thu Feb 1 19:50:13 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:39] <grayman> also i saw few problems with one game which looks like ubuntu specific
[01:39] <rickyfingers> shafto: do you have any gui at all?
[01:39] <Ulixes> here's the response...
[01:39] <grayman> didn't find the reason
[01:39] <shafto> rickyfingers, Yeah full gui
[01:39] <Nalidor`> Is there a way to burn the installation cd to a dvd instead of a cd? Nero doesn't let me do it
[01:39] <adaptr> Ulixes: you need a better kernel, you're still running the installed one...
[01:40] <Ulixes> so....
[01:40] <Ulixes> ?
[01:40] <adaptr> Ulixes: why are you not running the server version of ubuntu ?
[01:40] <rickyfingers> shafto: so what leads you to belive the nvidia driver is not running? No noticeable increase in image quality?
[01:40] <Ulixes> cause i need the gui
[01:40] <Nalidor`> s/installation cd/installation iso/
[01:40] <comlag> any of u guys know how to get rid of graphical login ? ?
[01:40] <comlag> im trying to cut down boot time
[01:40] <adaptr> Ulixes: there is nothing preventing you from installing a GUI on the server version
[01:40] <rickyfingers> shafto: just as a sanity check, you did restart X after making the changes to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, right?
[01:40] <Ulixes> didn't know
[01:40] <Ulixes> i'm new in linux
[01:40] <adaptr> Ulixes: but there are many reasons to use the server version on a server
[01:40] <shafto> rickyfingers, Yeah lol
[01:41] <Ulixes> for example?
[01:41] <comlag> anyone?
[01:41] <Nalidor`> shafto, what does glxgears give you?
[01:41] <comlag> get rid of graphical login ..??
[01:41] <grayman> yeah
[01:41] <grayman> need direct render
[01:41] <grayman> maybe glx is not installed properly
[01:41] <Nalidor`> if the drivers are running, you should get a crazy increase in the glxgears benchmark
[01:41] <rickyfingers> comlag: I'm not sure what the correct way to do it is, but you could just move /etc/init.d/gdm somewhere else
[01:41] <adaptr> Ulixes: never mind, install linux-image-server
[01:41] <Ulixes> adaptr: for exaple? what are the differences?
[01:41] <Nalidor`> if not, it'll be in the hundreds
[01:42] <Ulixes> what does it do?
[01:42] <adaptr> Ulixes: the kernel is made specifically for server use, for example
[01:42] <shafto> Nalidor`, If it works does that probably mean their working correctly?
[01:42] <grayman> check nvidia-settings too
[01:42] <eilker>   i still cant ssh my virtual server, /Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive)./ any idea for this ?
[01:42] <adaptr> Ulixes: do you know what your current kernel does, and how ?
[01:42] <comlag> rickyfinger k thanks..
[01:42] <Ulixes> so so...
[01:42] <Ulixes> ok
[01:42] <comlag> wait wait i did that
[01:42] <comlag> i think
[01:42] <Ulixes> listen once i've installed:linux-image-server can i add the cpu?
[01:42] <adaptr> Ulixes: then what would be the point of explaining the difference ?
[01:42] <comlag> doesnt that just remove boot screen?
[01:43] <adaptr> Ulixes: the order doesn't matter
[01:43] <Nalidor`> shafto: If it gives you a number of fps that's at least a few thousand, then you're golden
[01:43] <adaptr> Ulixes: you'll have to get it through the boot sequence first anyway - what kind of server is it ?
[01:43] <rickyfingers> comlag: what I'm thinking is the way you bring gnome-desktop all the way down is sudo /etc/initid/gdm stop
[01:43] <Ulixes> what you mean for kind??
[01:43] <shafto> Nalidor`, How to check FPS?
[01:43] <robdeman> hi folks, I have a software raid1 /etd/md0 ... but how can I figure out what the real harddrives are, I mean I think I have /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdc1/ and they togethe rmake up the /dev/md0 .. how can I tell?
[01:43] <Ulixes> it's an olidata server... xeon 3.00 ghz irwindale
[01:44] <Ulixes> 1 gb ram ecc333 mhz
[01:44] <Nalidor`> shafto: run glxgears from the console and look at the console window
[01:44] <rickyfingers> comlag: so those /etc/init.d/ files get executed at start up, so if you just move it out of there, gnome-desktop will never start, and there you go.
[01:44] <tuqann> hi, anyone knows why when I run "gksudo nautilus" it take like five minutes before the browser actually appears?
[01:44] <comlag> wait wait
[01:44] <rickyfingers> orange1: are you connected wired or wireless?
[01:44] <comlag> i think im not explaining my question right
[01:44] <adaptr> Ulixes: so no brand-name ? and you have the exact same CPU ?
[01:44] <Ulixes> yes
[01:44] <orange1> rickyfingers: took a walk around the house - found 15 networks with crappy signals.. none good enough to test wifi with
[01:44] <Ulixes> wait a second, maybe i've the model
[01:45] <adaptr> Ulixes: turn it off, install second CPU, boot up - BIOS should tell you you have 2
[01:45] <rickyfingers> orange1: you must live in a pretty tech-savvy neighborhood.
[01:45] <orange1> rickyfingers: i dont know if its not connection cuz the connection is so poor or because its not setup right
[01:45] <comlag> i still want it automatically going in gnome but i want console login instead of the graphical one
[01:45] <Ulixes> ok then?
[01:45] <comlag> homefully cutting down on boot time
[01:45] <adaptr> Ulixes: then download server kernel, reboot, and boot up *with the server kernel*
[01:45] <Jowi> comlag, turn off the framebuffer in grub
[01:45] <adaptr> Ulixes: aptitude install linux-image-server is all you need to do
[01:45] <orange1> rickyfingers: techsavvy i think not... 9/15 networks were open
[01:45] <tony__> How can I find a file anywhere on a partition? cmd style
[01:45] <Ulixes> this is the server kernel right: linux-image-server?
[01:45] <Ulixes> kk
[01:45] <comlag> my grub is fine
[01:45] <PanzerMKZ> what about the SMP part
[01:46] <comlag> its just everythig else
[01:46] <adaptr> it is the meta-package for whatever is the newest server image, yes
[01:46] <rambo3> Ulixes, no such thing
[01:46] <rickyfingers> comlag: what I said will give you that then you just type startx after logging in...you'll be good to go.
[01:46] <BSG75> bah .. there is no contrib directory under ubunty for mythtv :( anyone know where I can find a copy of mythrename.pl that will work with edgy?
[01:46] <SpY_Sc0rPi0> i have problem with my x
[01:46] <PanzerMKZ> since if I call it he is installing second prob
[01:46] <Ulixes> and server kernel will update automaticcally when the updates are available?
[01:46] <PanzerMKZ> proc
[01:46] <shafto> Its weird though, cause nvidia-settings work perfectly and report fully up to date drivers and everything
[01:46] <adaptr> Ulixes: so if you install thaht one, a new released server image will upgrade
[01:46] <Ulixes> k
[01:46] <tuqann> hi, anyone knows why when I run "gksudo nautilus" it take like five minutes before the browser actually appears?
[01:46] <SpY_Sc0rPi0> it does not loads my drivers
[01:46] <Nalidor`> shafto, what did glxgears say?
[01:46] <adaptr> Ulixes: but that's not necessarily a good thing with a server
[01:46] <Ulixes> another question installing this package linux-image-server can i still run one processor?
[01:46] <adaptr> of course
[01:46] <comlag> rickyfingers is there any way to just have it "startx" after i login?
[01:46] <jamie> can anyone talk me through how to mount my ntfs drive in ubuntu?, iv trried online tutorials but to no avail please help me
[01:46] <shafto> Nalidor`, nothing
[01:46] <adaptr> an SMP kernel can run any number of CPUs
[01:46] <Nalidor`> interesting
[01:47] <Ulixes> kk does ubuntu change visually or it runs normally?
[01:47] <Nalidor`> That's all I can do to help, sorry :(
[01:47] <adaptr> it runs twice as fast ?
[01:47] <Ulixes> with the gui and the programs?
[01:47] <Messia> my generic view urlconf does not seem to be working.
[01:47] <SpY_Sc0rPi0> i have problem with my x, my drivers couldn't be loaded
[01:47] <Ulixes> i mean i do not see the differences apart the speed right?
[01:47] <adaptr> Ulixes: you're making this out to be some sort of magic.. it isn't
[01:47] <Ulixes> lol
[01:47] <Messia> urlpatterns = patterns('django.views.generic.list_detail.object_list',   (r'^list/$', 'object_list', dict(list_dict, template_name='objects/object_list.html')),)
[01:47] <jamie> hello>
[01:47] <adaptr> Ulixes: what kind of drives do you have in this thing ?
[01:47] <eth01> im booting my ubuntu server and its saying theres an error segmentated?
[01:48] <adaptr> eth01: actually, it's not saying that
[01:48] <rickyfingers> comlag: I'm thinking, it would go in something like the ~/.bashrc file, but I'm not sure that's where you want it, because it'll run startx every time you start another instance of bash
[01:48] <Ulixes> double sata disks
[01:48] <Messia> oops wrong chat
[01:48] <adaptr> Ulixes: RAID-1 ?
[01:48] <jamie> is anyone willing to help?
[01:48] <Ulixes> NO
[01:48] <Ulixes> no raid
[01:48] <jamie> well thanx a bunch
[01:48] <adaptr> Ulixes: pity; only half a server, then
[01:48] <comlag> hm..
[01:48] <Ulixes> cause linux doesn't see the raid
[01:48] <Ulixes> yes
[01:48] <adaptr> Ulixes: you will need to do some work yourself for that
[01:48] <Nalidor`> Is there a way to burn the installation iso to a dvd instead of a cd? Nero doesn't let me do it
[01:49] <SpY_Sc0rPi0> how can i disable xorg-air
[01:49] <AmyRose> jamie, I'd try to help you, but I have no experience, but please try being more polite
[01:49] <adaptr> Ulixes: do it, it is worth every effort
[01:49] <comlag> im gonna spend more time googling
[01:49] <rickyfingers> comlag: looking at the man page real fast, I'd say you'd want to put startx in the last line of ~/.bash-login
[01:49] <Ulixes> do wath?
[01:49] <adaptr> Nalidor`: use dvd decrypter, nero is stupid
[01:49] <Ulixes> *what?
[01:49] <comlag> ill try that then
[01:49] <jrib> jamie: Ulixes wasn't replying to you, just ask your question to the channel
[01:49] <adaptr> Ulixes: configure your system so it can boot from and use the RAID
[01:49] <comlag> brb
[01:49] <tuqann> Anyone knows why "gksudo nautilus" takes five minutes to load the browser?
[01:49] <rickyfingers> comlag: excuse me, I meant ~/.bash_login - underscore not a hyphen
[01:49] <adaptr> Ulixes: how and where do you set up raid ?
[01:49] <orange1> rickyfingers: have u tried aircrack?
[01:49] <Nalidor`> adaptr: Isn't that a ripper?
[01:49] <Jowi> comlag, you might put an "if" loop in there to just startx in case it is not already started.
[01:50] <esperegu> anybody knows how one can create a custom menu on left mouse click on the desktop? (like with fluxbox)
[01:50] <adaptr> Nalidor`: no, it's not - it ius the best burner you can find for Windows
[01:50] <Ulixes> from the raid bios
[01:50] <Nalidor`> adaptr: lovely, thanks
[01:50] <rickyfingers> orange1: I never heard of aircrack. Is it as addictive as regular crack?
[01:50] <comlag> k
[01:50] <jamie> how do I auto mount my ntfs formatted drive at ubuntu start up?
[01:50] <comlag> lemme edit and reboott
[01:50] <rickyfingers> orange1: I've heard of airsnort, but never used it.
[01:50] <orange1> rickyfingers: www.aircrack-ng.org
[01:50] <adaptr> Ulixes: okay, disbale the RAID completely in the BIOS, and re-run the installation, opt to install LVM on a 2-disk soft raid - done.
[01:50] <comlag> see if this works
[01:50] <jamie> as I said I'v tried using tutorials but they never work
[01:50] <comlag> thanks
[01:51] <jamie> any help would be much appreciated
[01:51] <jrib> jamie: have you been to the guide at the wiki?
[01:51] <Nalidor`> jamie: have a look in /etc/fstab as root
[01:51] <Ulixes> but this way i've to format
[01:51] <Nalidor`> in a text editor
[01:51] <Ulixes> ...
[01:51] <jamie> yes and i get an error
[01:51] <Ulixes> when i'll have some time free i've to do
[01:51] <jrib> jamie: tell us the error
[01:51] <Nalidor`> what error?
[01:51] <jamie> while executing the commands given
[01:51] <adaptr> Ulixes: yes, in return you will have an actual server, instead of one that will die on the first disk error
[01:51] <shafto> !nvidia
[01:51] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[01:52] <Ulixes> *you right
[01:52] <robdeman> folks: what does this mean mdadm /dev/md0 has been started with 1 drive (out of 2) .. I tried to setup software raid1 ... is this correct?
[01:52] <jamie> o.k i'll give it a bash, one more ? wha'ts the most stable program for ipod sync
[01:52] <Ulixes> anyway it's a school's server, i'm trying to convince the director to use linux in all computers :D
[01:52] <adaptr> robdeman: obviously not.. if it's only seeing one drive
[01:52] <jrib> !ipod > jamie    (jamie, see the private message from ubotu)
[01:52] <rickyfingers> jetscreamer: is your nic the name of a rock star in the jetsons cartoon?
[01:52] <jetscreamer> rickyfingers: right on
[01:52] <robdeman> adaptr: damn how can I fix this...?
[01:52] <adaptr> Ulixes: then you're on a budget, understandable
[01:53] <adaptr> robdeman: I have no idea what you did
[01:53] <Ulixes> :)
[01:53] <jetscreamer> rickyfingers: you're only the second person to get it in quite a few years
[01:53] <robdeman> ugh
[01:53] <Ulixes> i've seen that is mooore fast and more secure than win, but i've to learn some commands
[01:53] <Ulixes> anyway i want to thank you for explain me everything
[01:53] <Ulixes> thanks again, i gotta go, byebye
[01:53] <rickyfingers> jetscreamer: that's killer.  Did you ever see that beastie boys video they made at voodoo fest, they do a rendition of "the joint" where they start going "eep opp ork ah ah"
[01:53] <adaptr> robdeman: start by trying if it's just only started one drive, by adding the second drive with mdadm
[01:53] <BSG75> oh well .. I give up .. gonna try the unofficial apt .. if that doesn't work .. back to gentoo.. thanks guys
[01:54] <jetscreamer> rickyfingers: no didn't know they did that .. i'd like to see it
[01:54] <Ulixes> last question, will the application use both processor or i need other configuration?
[01:54] <rickyfingers> jetscreamer: it was on youtube a while ago, I don't know if it's still there or not...what with all the copyright law suits that they've been getting hit with.
[01:55] <robdeman> adaptr: ... ok...
[01:55] <jetscreamer> i'll google it
[01:55] <eth01> can some1 tell me then if this is correct please? http://phpfi.com/219516
[01:55] <shafto> You know if you run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ' how do you get past the 3rd step?
[01:55] <tuqann> this channel seems to be busy, are there other Ubuntu help channels I can go to?
[01:55] <jrib> shafto: which one is the third step?
[01:55] <[Tuxedo] > tuqann what do you need help with?

[01:57] <michup> i added .bash_profile file and fill it with PATH=$PATH:/my/own export $PATH but when i printenv it desnt changed
[01:57] <michup> do .bash_profile has to be executable?

[01:57] <tuqann> I'll try
[01:58] <michup> okay so how do i add path to my profile?
[01:58] <jrib> michup: how do you login?
[01:58] <tuqann> yes
[01:58] <michup> gdm
[01:58] <tuqann> it did help, thanks a million

[01:59] <jrib> shafto: try pressing tab
[02:00] <adaptr> eth01: at least 3 things
[02:00] <michup> okay thx
[02:00] <tuqann> Frogzoo: hmmm, I thought as much though I got the latest drivers from ati, you think I have to downgrade them?
[02:00] <adaptr> eth01: please just use the network applet to set a static IP, if you must.. but why oh why are you assigning a PUBLIC IP ?
[02:00] <Frogzoo> tuqann: I use fglrx on edgy and suspend works
[02:00] <Frogzoo> !fglrx | tuqann

[02:01] <sebrock> got a quick question about Samba here: My samba folder shows the windows computer "double" like C and C$, D and D$ and so on? WHy is this?
[02:01] <michup> and that ~/.xprofile has to be executable?
[02:02] <jrib> michup: no
[02:02] <jetscreamer> sebrock: the ones with the $ are administrative shares
[02:02] <jetscreamer> autogenerated
[02:03] <jetscreamer> it's a windows thing
[02:03] <SpY_Sc0rPi0> i want my xserver-xorg-air to be disabled, how can i do this?
[02:03] <jetscreamer> sebrock: there is a setting in registry to turn those off btw (in windows)
[02:04] <michup> okay do i have to reboot to make that xprofile work?
[02:04] <jetscreamer> no
[02:04] <jetscreamer> source it
[02:05] <remfarkas> hi
[02:05] <jetscreamer> source ~/.whatever
[02:05] <michup> thx
[02:05] <remfarkas> is there any chance i can get my radeon 8500 work with using 3D?
[02:05] <antoine_> bonjour
[02:05] <jetscreamer> yes
[02:05] <jetscreamer> there is a chance
[02:05] <antoine_> vous ne sauriez pas ou est ce que je peux voir l'historique des dates de mises en veilles de mon PC?

[02:07] <Jowi> haven't seen that in years...
[02:07] <michup> source .xprofile
[02:07] <tuqann> wow, did a hundred people just left the room :S
[02:07] <jrib> michup: inside .xprofile
[02:07] <michup> okay
[02:07] <sebrock> jetscreamer, ?
[02:07] <michup> PATH=$PATH:$HOME/usr/bin
[02:07] <michup> export $PATH
[02:07] <Federico90> someone knows a good mp3 ripper?
[02:08] <eth01> adaptr: thats my cable IP
[02:08] <Jowi> Federico90, sound-juicer is good and default
[02:08] <jetscreamer> sebrock: what
[02:08] <jetscreamer> i must have missed it
[02:08] <sebrock> yeah
[02:08] <adaptr> eth01: that's not static - it's DHCP
[02:08] <jrib> michup: export PATH   not   export $PATH
[02:08] <Federico90> Jowi: yap but he doesn't convert on mp3 formatr
[02:08] <lucien> #UBUNTU-FR
[02:08] <Federico90> *formar
[02:08] <Federico90> *forat
[02:08] <sebrock> jetscreamer, will it always show these administrative shares? All I did was to share usual stuff, not marking them with admin privs?
[02:09] <Jowi> Federico90, it does, but you need to tell it how to do that first
[02:09] <Federico90> aaaa
[02:09] <michup> okay
[02:09] <jetscreamer> sebrock: yes, and those shares are a windows thing... you can turn them off in the windows registry if you wish
[02:09] <Federico90> Jowi: i need to encode a cd audio in mp3 files
[02:09] <ericka> how can i shutdown my computer normally? there is no option in my gnome in quit tab?
[02:09] <Federico90> but i need also to decide the bitrate
[02:09] <sebrock> jetscreamer, do you know the place in reg?
[02:10] <Frogzoo> ericka: sudo shutdown -h now
[02:10] <michup> so that xprofile will work everytime i log to my session?
[02:10] <Jowi> Federico90, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping
[02:10] <eth01> adaptr: how can i make it static instead of DHCP?
[02:10] <michup> X session
[02:10] <jetscreamer> sebrock: http://www.google.com/search?q=disable+administrative+shares+site%3Amicrosoft.com
[02:10] <adaptr> eth01: you can't
[02:10] <Federico90> Jowi: ty
[02:10] <adaptr> eth01: your ISP assigns the IP
[02:10] <ericka> Frogzoo,  ty i tried it.. but " now " is new for me :) will tried it.
[02:11] <eth01> adaptr: i know what. but what should i do
[02:11] <eth01> make it dynamic?
[02:11] <jrib> michup: through gdm it should
[02:11] <tuqann> one thing I liked about openSUSE is their driver support, everything came configured and ready out of the box, can't Ubuntu do something of that sort?
[02:11] <sebrock> tnx jetscreamer
[02:11] <adaptr> eth01: apart from the fact that running a newbie-Linux box off a public IP is.. scary
[02:11] <jetscreamer> gdm doesnt give you those options if you're running not-gnome
[02:11] <steven43126> what driver do i need for a hsf modem on sony laptop, it's a softmode included in the sound card far as i can tell i need the HSF modem driver but there seems to be a price for this driver ?
[02:12] <ericka> my isp connection or my download is too slow.. so anyhow i download fiesty? with resume. ?
[02:12] <eth01> its a VPS
[02:12] <sebrock> jetscreamer, wait, this wont delete the shares? just the administraive shares right?
[02:13] <jetscreamer> sebrock: you can turn the administrative shares off. 'shouldn't' affect your others, but if it does just recreate them
[02:13] <sebrock> ok
[02:13] <brunes> I've got a weird problem.... my PC is dual boot. if I hibernate while I am in Windows, then turn the PC back on and boot into ubuntu (ps. this is feisty fawn) - my network card never comes up
[02:13] <brunes> anbyone ever hear of something like that?
[02:13] <adaptr> eth01: what is a VPS ?
[02:13] <brunes> Its like the PC put it into ACPI sleep mode and ubuntu is not waking it, or something
[02:13] <mirak> hi

[02:15] <jrib> !timebasedreleases > Remo_A    (Remo_A, see the private message from ubotu)
[02:15] <Remo_A> jrib: thanks
[02:15] <jrib> Remo_A: unless it is in backports, you will need to compile it
[02:16] <mirak> jrib: well this stats are not relevant if you want to compare a default package like evolution to thunderbird
[02:16] <jrib> Remo_A: actually, in feisty it is 7:6.2.4.5.dfsg1-0.14 so I guess the version you want can't be backported
[02:17] <remfarkas> anyone knows how to get radeon 8500 work with 3D?
[02:17] <mirak> you can't desinstal it by the way
[02:17] <jrib> mirak: I don't understand
[02:17] <Remo_A> jrib: yes, I saw it .. well ok thx
[02:17] <michup> okay ive added my new menu entry but it isnt there do i have to reload panel?
[02:17] <mirak> http://popcon.ubuntu.com/by_inst
[02:17] <robdeman> anybody here that could check my desmg to see if I setup my harddrives correctly? (dma etc..?)
[02:18] <robdeman> I added the 2nd drive to the /md0
[02:18] <xMorgawr> hi, could somebody help me with azureus? i've just downloaded it and installed from the repo, but when i open it, it loads and takes me to a window for settings, then it shuts off..
[02:18] <mirak> jrib: even if I don't explicitely want evolution or even use it, it will still be counted in the stats.
[02:18] <Frogzoo> robdeman: if they show up in 'df' you're in business
[02:19] <robdeman> df?
[02:19] <Frogzoo> robdeman: -> man df , also man lvdisplay
[02:20] <sluimers> Hi, I'm trying to mount an external harddrive using NTSF, but fusermount refuses to read spaces in fstab. How can I get it to read spaces?
[02:20] <jrib> mirak: what kind of statistic do you want on it?
[02:20] <robdeman> -bash: lvdisplay: command not found
[02:20] <michup> after i add my menu entry  it isnt there
[02:20] <michup> do i have to reload my panel?
[02:20] <michup> or something done wrong?
[02:21] <jrib> michup: try to reload the panel, though that doesn't seem normal
[02:21] <michup> okay can i do it manually from shell?
[02:21] <mirak> jrib: it's just that I think rythmbox or totem doesn't deserve to be defaults. That's better now but they abusively pushed in previous release while there was better players. Especially in regard to gstremer immaturity
[02:21] <jrib> michup: killall gnome-panel
[02:21] <sluimers> and how can I see a list of the users here in this channel?
[02:22] <sluimers> oh wait, dound the latter
[02:22] <sluimers> *found
[02:22] <michup> thx now it shows up
[02:22] <jrib> mirak: k, #ubuntu-offtopic is a better place for that discussion
[02:23] <Frogzoo> sluimers: /names
[02:23] <sluimers> ./names?
[02:24] <adaptr> yes
[02:24] <adaptr> or /list, if you're feeling masochistic
[02:24] <adaptr> 1022 nicks in channel
[02:25] <sluimers> oh, I thought for a second you were answering my first question
[02:25] <adaptr> sluimers: don't. use. spaces. then
[02:25] <adaptr> fstab uses tab delimiters
[02:26] <michup> okay i had this conceptions but it wont work... ive a java game Magic-Project and i start it in console by typing java -jar ~/usr/bin/magic/starter.jar but i wanted to use it by clickin into menu so i make in ~/usr/bin/magic.sh
[02:26] <michup> which executes that command with correct path java -jar magic/starter.jar
[02:26] <cbx33> hey all
[02:27] <jrib> michup: give the full path to magic/starter.jar
[02:27] <Cosmonaut3030> Hi. I'm looking for some kind of wireless manager simillar to kwifimanager, but without the KDE dependancy. Is this possible?
[02:27] <michup> okay
[02:27] <cbx33> why would usb devices have bad latency and poor responce on the live CD and after an install?
[02:27] <eilker> !chroot
[02:27] <ubotu> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[02:27] <adaptr> cbx33: because... they always do ?
[02:27] <michup> /home/michup/usr/bin/magic/starer.jar
[02:27] <cbx33> adaptri mean keyboard and mouse
[02:27] <xMorgawr> guys, i need help with azureus (bittorrent client).. whenever i open it, it opens a window for settings but i can't change anything because it shuts down right after..
[02:27] <adaptr> +t, yes
[02:28] <cbx33> mouse is really juddery and keyboard is unresponsive
[02:28] <adaptr> cbx33: define "bad latency"
[02:28] <michup> and my magic.sh --> /home/michup/usr/bin/magic.sh
[02:28] <Cosmonaut3030> Hi. Can anyone help? I'm looking for some kind of wireless manager simillar to kwifimanager, but without the KDE dependancy. Is this possible?
[02:28] <cbx33> and the network card doesn't work either
[02:28] <adaptr> cbx33: what USB chipset, which drivers
[02:28] <cbx33> well it was the ubuntu live cd
[02:28] <xMorgawr> i need help with azureus (bittorrent client).. whenever i open it, it opens a window for settings but i can't change anything because it shuts down right after..
[02:28] <cbx33> not sure what usb chipset
[02:28] <jrib> michup: right
[02:28] <cbx33> how do i check
[02:28] <cbx33> it work fine the other day
[02:29] <xMorgawr> help anyone? D:
[02:29] <michup> and source of it java -jar magic/starter.jar
[02:29] <Jowi> cbx33, I had that prob on 2.6.17-11-generic kernel. I have to use 2.6.17-10-generic. USB devices kept on disconnecting.
[02:29] <Jowi> cbx33, (running edgy)
[02:29] <cbx33> eh this is edgy
[02:29] <cbx33> but I am running the old kernel
[02:30] <cbx33> on both live cd
[02:30] <cbx33> and after installing
[02:30] <Cosmonaut3030> Does anyone know any programs simmilar to kwifimanager, but without the KDE?
[02:30] <cbx33> only thing that may have changed is the order of pci cards
[02:30] <jrib> michup: no, in the source, put the full path to starter.jar
[02:31] <michup> okay
[02:31] <xMorgawr> how do i view hidden files in my folder?
[02:31] <jrib> xMorgawr: ctrl-h, or view > show hidden files in the menu
[02:31] <xMorgawr> thanks
[02:31] <Cosmonaut3030> xMorgawr: ls -a in terminal
[02:32] <Owner> hello
[02:33] <Jowi> xMorgawr, ctrl-h in nautilus and thunar
[02:33] <Obidose> If, I want to install ubuntu on a second hard drive and leave windows intact, is this easy?
[02:34] <Frogzoo> xMorgawr: ctrl h
[02:34] <michup> #!/bin/bash
[02:34] <michup> java -jar /home/michup/usr/bin/magic/starter.jar
[02:35] <michup> it isnt working
[02:35] <Dhanjel> any tips on tv-software (for ivtv based card) that works with ati?
[02:35] <jrib> michup: does it work if you try to execute the shell script directly in a terminal?
[02:35] <michup> i try directly
[02:35] <jrib> michup: what did you type?
[02:35] <Jowi> Obidose, yes. but if windows is on the primary disk you will need a way to boot linux. that means installing a bootloader on MBR (Master Boot Record) that overwrites windows bootloader. the windows install will be intact but its bootloader will be overwritten.
[02:35] <Cosmonaut3030> Obidose: Yeah, it is. tHe Ubuntu partitioner/install will help you :)
[02:36] <michup> i was pressing when it asked run and run in terminal but nothing happend
[02:36] <michup> w8 ill chek directly given a path in shell
[02:36] <jetscreamer> chmod +x your_script  maybe
[02:36] <Obidose> If i just run the live cd and tell it to install, will it give me the options to do it?
[02:36] <Jowi> Obidose, if your linux disk is primary then you have no problem.
[02:36] <Cosmonaut3030> Obidose: Yes.
[02:37] <Jowi> Obidose, yes. you will get options on where to install linux.
[02:37] <Obidose> but my windows disk is primary atm, i have only just stuck another hdd in there
[02:37] <sabotai> does any1 know how to configure proxy in firefox?
[02:37] <michup> Make sure you are running this from the installation directory
[02:37] <drbreen> i had this idea and now i wanna ask

[02:37] <jrib> sabotai: edit > preferences  > advanced > network > settings
[02:37] <sabotai> lol?
[02:37] <michup> it seems java need to do it from /home/michup/usr/bin/magic/ directory?
[02:37] <Cosmonaut3030> drbreen: Lol, wtf?
[02:38] <sabotai> drbbreen u funny
 i mean are there porn repositories or something ?
[02:38] <jrib> !pornview | drbreen this is close...

[02:38] <michup> Make sure you are running this from the installation directory
[02:38] <Cosmonaut3030> Do you think they have porn.debs?
[02:38] <sabotai> jrib thanks jrib
[02:38] <jetscreamer> no it's just a picture viewer... and only does .jpg iirc
 would be nice.
[02:39] <drbreen> i do not want a picture viewer
[02:39] <Cosmonaut3030> drbreen: It would.
[02:39] <Cosmonaut3030> But I doubt it.
[02:39] <Cosmonaut3030> !kwifimanager

[02:39] <jrib> michup: that's java error output right?
[02:40] <michup> strange but shell didnt say about that but it works now
[02:40] <Moox> hi there. Where is the gnome menu file ? Those on which describes all the menu entries for a usr
[02:40] <michup> it seems that java need to be directly in his option file directory
[02:40] <albert> hello, anybody can say me how can I pulse right button with keyboard??
[02:40] <jrib> michup: ok, if it does need to be run in the right directory, just put a 'cd /whatever' in your shell script before executing java
[02:41] <albert> Anybody know it??
[02:41] <jetscreamer> albert: if you want to emulate your mouse via keyboard, shift+numlock iirc
[02:41] <michup> ive changed source #!/bin/bash
[02:41] <michup> cd /home/michup/usr/bin/magic/
[02:41] <michup> java -jar starter.jar
[02:41] <michup> and it works
[02:41] <jetscreamer> and numlock to toggle it off again
[02:41] <jetscreamer> err numlock
[02:41] <jetscreamer> gah
[02:41] <michup> now ill check if it works with menu entry
[02:41] <jetscreamer> shift
[02:42] <jetscreamer> ahh.
[02:42] <jrib> !enter
[02:42] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:42] <jetscreamer> turn it off
[02:42] <michup> okay it works :)

[02:42] <effie_jayx> I have a wpa realted issue.. :S My wireless card ( Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 ) is working fine. but when I try to log in using network manager... It won't take the password for my network...
[02:42] <michup> thx a lot!!
[02:42] <jrib> michup: great, np
[02:42] <Moox> My application menus are empty, How can I rebuild them ?
[02:42] <jetscreamer> albert: shift+numlock, then use the keypad for the mouse
[02:42] <effie_jayx> I know it has to do with wpa but no clue on where the problem might be
[02:43] <jetscreamer> albert: i forget which key on the numpad becomes right click but play with it and find out
[02:43] <jetscreamer> Moox: 'maybe' update-menus but i dunno
[02:44] <michup> for everyone that interests in Magic the Gathering game theres cool GPL project called Magic-Project
[02:44] <Moox> jetscreamer: there is no 'update-menus' app
[02:44] <jetscreamer> Moox: in an xterm
[02:44] <Moox> jetscreamer: yes.
[02:44] <michup> it allows to makes own cards and playing in internet with direct IP connection
[02:45] <albert> jetscreamer: how can I extract the pendrive with command console?
[02:45] <michup> thats project link http://magic-project.sourceforge.net/

[02:47] <Mats> Hey, when I typ cat /proc/cpuinfo it says my CPU is running at 800mhz...that's not right, since I have a AMD Athlon Mobile 64 2800+ cpu...how to change?
[02:48] <qiv> hello ^^ anyone ever tried to change a 64bit ubuntu into a 32bit? :)
[02:48] <jetscreamer> Mats: it may adjust itself on the fly... not sure
[02:48] <qiv> Mats, 2800+ does not mean it has a frequence of 2.8ghtz
[02:48] <foo> Hm, SAS drives are not SATA or ATA drives... they are their own type, right?
[02:48] <qiv> so it could be those 800mhz, i do not know
[02:49] <Mats> No, qiv...it should be running at 1800mhz...
[02:49] <qiv> Mats, possible i do not know ;)
[02:49] <fabian_> hallo
[02:49] <sabotai> what does *.local refer to?

[02:56] <mcarolan88> hey guys, bit of a problem, i'm trying to install the beta but the ubiquity always crashes at stage 5 of the installation - and i cannot press next to continue, is there any way i can skip this stage (importing documents and settings)?
[02:56] <Cyynic> I'm getting an "Out of Range" error from my monitor from Gnome at start up, but it's not xorg.conf. I know this because KDE is running fine right now, anyone have any ideas?
[02:56] <Mats> Any of you new guys know how to change CPU frequency?
[02:57] <pschulz01> mcarolan88: I have the same issue (from herd-5).. I don't think it has crashed.. it just takes a really long time.

[03:02] <robdeman> hi folks I just did a apt-get install phpmyadmin and it all worked.. but how do I access it? http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ doesnt do anything?

[03:02] <Cyrus25801> cool thanx
[03:03] <CodeImp> hey folks
[03:03] <CodeImp> quick question here, downloaded feisty beta alternate setup cd
[03:03] <penguin> bah, i just installed beryl on edgy w/ ati, and i see the manager, but no beryl-ness :(
[03:03] <penguin> anyonw know why?
[03:03] <CodeImp> on boot it askes install in text mode or install in oem mode, among a few other options
[03:03] <jrib> penguin: did you select beryl as the window manager?
[03:04] <infidel> tuqann, http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[03:04] <penguin> that would help...
[03:04] <CodeImp> text mode/oem mode, is this only regarding the setup install or does it matter for what i want to install?
[03:04] <jrib> penguin: #ubuntu-effects can help more if it's a different issue
[03:04] <tuqann> infidel: it's an ATI
[03:05] <infidel> tuqann, did you opn the webpage?
[03:05] <tuqann> and I pretty much did everything on the wiki page, but I am still getting mesa
[03:05] <penguin> jrib - how do i select it as the window manager?
[03:05] <tuqann> infidel: loading, internet is a bit on and off
[03:05] <Mats> Anyone know how to change cpu frequency? If not, does anyone know of any channel that might be good for my question?
[03:05] <penguin> jrib - i dont see it under prefs or admin.
[03:05] <CodeImp> what do the "Install in text mode" and "Install in OEM mode" options mean at the feisty beta alternate boot CD?
[03:05] <jrib> penguin: do you have the red diamond in your notifications area?
[03:06] <penguin> jrib - yes
[03:06] <jrib> penguin: right click on it > select window manager
[03:06] <foo> What's the command to reconfigure the network?
[03:06] <Cosmonaut3030> Mats: There's a gnome applet that comes with it, I think...?
[03:07] <infidel> foo, ifconfig
[03:07] <foo> gah, doh, tahnks.
[03:07] <Mats> Cosmonaut3030: Hm? Which means?
[03:07] <penguin> jrib - just did so, but it does not do anything.
[03:07] <Cosmonaut3030> I think you should be able to set it on your Gnome panel?
[03:08] <jrib> penguin: k, #ubuntu-effects can probably troubleshoot more than
[03:08] <Mats> Hm? Like System-->preferences?
[03:08] <jrib> then even
[03:08] <Dhanjel> j #ubuntu-effects
[03:08] <penguin> jrib - thanks for your help, ill head over there.
[03:08] <CodeImp> what do the "Install in text mode" and "Install in OEM mode" options mean at the feisty beta alternate boot CD? Anyone who can give me a more elaborate description please?
[03:08] <Cosmonaut3030> Right click on your panel... I don't know, I haven't used GNOME in ages.
[03:08] <Cosmonaut3030> Sorry :(
[03:08] <xtknight> CodeImp: i dont know about the OEM.  the 'text mode' means it will use a text mode installer for installing a full Ubuntu desktop system
[03:08] <Antalmir> Hello
[03:09] <CodeImp> oh but it doesnt mean i get a non-graphical version of ubuntu installed?
[03:09] <Mats> Np Cosmonaut...gah..why can't there just be a button that says "CPU Settings" or something? :(
[03:09] <xtknight> CodeImp: no it does not mean that.  if you want that i believe it's 'install command line system' or 'install server'
[03:09] <CodeImp> no, i DO want a graphical version, thats why i feared choosing these options :P
[03:09] <CodeImp> thanks for the help :)
[03:11] <omeil> Can someone help me with open office?. i created an office document and created tables in it. i saved the file and then re opened it and there is no tables the information is just scattered every where? how do you make the tables stay?
[03:11] <xtknight> omeil: did you save it as openoffice format?
[03:12] <omeil> xtknight: didn't know it had a format :) i thought it was similar to ms offices .doc
[03:12] <xtknight> omeil: odt i think or sometihng like that
[03:12] <xtknight> wow somebody set 'no more joins' for
[03:12] <xtknight> a sec

[03:12] <deadeyez> hi all
[03:12] <xtknight> !hi
[03:12] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:12] <deadeyez> is it possible to use a proxy to install ubuntu?
[03:13] <xtknight> deadeyez: what do you mean by a proxy?
[03:13] <deadeyez> xtknight, I can't go on the internet without a proxy
[03:13] <Mats> Now when so many ppl joined I'll ask again: Anyone know how to change cpu frequency? If not, does anyone know of any channel that might be good for my question?
[03:13] <xtknight> deadeyez: ubuntu doesn't usually use the Internet to install
[03:13] <deadeyez> why does it asks for the mirror server then?
[03:14] <Neo1ite> hi, can anyone tell me how to completly reinstall ubuntu6,06
[03:14] <xtknight> deadeyez: it does ?
[03:14] <taraksias> hello how can i install Ubuntu 7.04 beta?? i have already install ubuntu 6.10 for amd64
[03:14] <xtknight> deadeyez: are you talking about post-install ?
[03:14] <deadeyez> and how can I set it not to use the internet at all
[03:14] <ProN00b> anyone else switching from ubuntu to xubuntu on feisty ?
[03:14] <deadeyez> xtknight, no, I just put in the disk an it gives me a screen where I should give the mirror server
[03:14] <omeil> xtknight, yeah its odt :) works now.
[03:14] <xtknight> omeil: but doc didn't store the table correctly?  or were you using some primitive format?

[03:15] <xtknight> omeil: eh?  may want to file a bug, that doesn't seem right
[03:15] <xtknight> omeil: open office is supposed to be very compatible with doc from what i know
[03:15] <omeil> xtknight, thats what i though :(. lemme create a new .doc file and create a table and save and see what happens
[03:15] <Neo1ite> hi, can anyone tell me how to completly reinstall ubuntu6.06?
[03:16] <xtknight> deadeyez: where is it asking the mirror server?  at install?  if so, what stage of it?
[03:16] <deadeyez> xtknight, first stage
[03:16] <deadeyez> after configuring network
[03:16] <xtknight> deadeyez: ah, ok
[03:16] <xtknight> deadeyez: which exact CD/dvd image did you get?
[03:16] <deadeyez> I do not now for shure... I think 6.06
[03:17] <xtknight> deadeyez: i would verify the disc via MD5sum or run the verify thing on the CD.  to my knowledge it should not be asking for a mirror server during install.  although i believe ubuntu is based on debian which should have proxy options in the base-installer setup
[03:17] <xtknight> deadeyez: this is text mode or livecd mode installer?
[03:17] <deadeyez> textmode
[03:18] <deadeyez> xtknight, textmode
[03:18] <omeil> xtknight, oh i see whats wrong here. i created a new file and named it .doc and ran it. seems like that the file that u create has to be saved as a doc file from open office to work properly. it must write some MS office code in it.
[03:18] <xtknight> deadeyez: alright i really dont know.  are you able to get to a master menu anywhere?  like by pressing ESC a couple times or by pressing back or something?  there should eventually appear a big master list with about 20 items in it, including 'configure base install'
[03:19] <xtknight> deadeyez: from that master menu you may be able to access some proxy settings it would have not normally asked, like by pressing configure network.
[03:19] <xtknight> deadeyez: is there a reason you're not using the LiveCD, actually?
[03:19] <deadeyez> xtknight, yes I can go to the master menu
[03:19] <skar> hi, i've a ubuntu machine on the network, how do i remote login into the X on this machine?
[03:19] <deadeyez> but no configure base install:s
[03:19] <xtknight> deadeyez: so do you have it up right now on a different pc?
[03:20] <xtknight> omeil: ahh ok
[03:20] <deadeyez> xtknight, I just dont want to use the livecd:p
[03:21] <xtknight> deadeyez: ah k.  do you have the master menu up on a different PC right now where you could tell me the menu items or were you just going from memory?
[03:21] <skar> hi, i've a ubuntu machine on the network, how do i remote login into the X on this machine from my desktop ubuntu?
[03:21] <xtknight> skar: is it gnome ubuntu?
[03:21] <skar> yes
[03:21] <xtknight> skar: do you want an actual remote login or do you just want to share the X session?
[03:21] <omeil> my printer works so fast in ubuntu :D, in XP it takes like 1-2 minutes for the printer to decide printing in ubuntu it takes 6 seconds :D (I timed it lol...i was surpised :D)
[03:21] <deadeyez> xtknight, I dont get what you mean:) but I am now looking for a manual network configuration
[03:22] <shafto> You guys know the linux drivers in the ubuntu wiki, can they run games okay?
[03:22] <xtknight> deadeyez: i mean, do you have the menu up RIGHT NOW on a different PC?
[03:22] <Ariba> Hi, I have just installed ubuntu 6.10 on a new PC. Boot up time +7min. Is there anyone that kan help me find the problem?
[03:22] <deadeyez> yes
[03:22] <xtknight> ok :)
[03:22] <Jowi> skar, either by xdmcp (set it up in gdmsetup) or via ssh. "ssh user@machine -X"
[03:22] <deadeyez> xtknight, yes I have
[03:22] <omeil> shafto, you talking about the Ati or nvidia drivers?
[03:22] <deadeyez> xtknight, but no proxy configuration is possible in the menu
[03:22] <shafto> omeil, Sorry, the Nvidia ones
[03:23] <StoneNote> !freenx | skar
[03:23] <sabiancra> Temps cannot be colder than absolute 0. (-459.67F)
[03:23] <ubotu> skar: FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[03:23] <omeil> shafto, yup they woikin good :). they run games, well really the card works as good as xp. the only downside it game compatability in linux :)
[03:23] <xtknight> deadeyez: i am pretty sure there's a way somehow to make it use a proxy.  although i wonder what's going on because it should not be asking for a server
[03:23] <jrib> sabiancra: please stop saying that
[03:24] <shafto> omeil, the ones you install direct from synaptic?
[03:24] <xtknight> in other news the sun comes up in the morning
[03:24] <xtknight> wth..
[03:24] <albacker> whats the minimal memory needed to enter the LIVECD ?!
[03:24] <Fuzzy76> Anyone know of a way to obtain a list of manually installed packages? I tried setting up a Synaptic filter, but couldn't get it to work as intended...
[03:24] <penguin> hmmm, if i installed wine, could i run games off of my NTFS partition with ntfs-g3?
[03:24] <Jowi> albacker, 192MB I believe
[03:24] <albacker> Jowi, thnx
[03:24] <omeil> !nvidia, shafto
[03:24] <xtknight> penguin: yes
[03:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidia, shafto - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:24] <penguin> xtknight, thanks
[03:24] <skar> xtknight: whats the difference between remote login and sharing x session(forgive my dumbness)
[03:24] <xtknight> penguin: potentially, it shouldn't be any more trouble with ntfs
[03:24] <omeil> !Nvidia, shafto
[03:25] <penguin> xtknight, k
[03:25] <shafto> omeil, Yeah i know them, are they the ones that run okay?
[03:25] <omeil> oops lol
[03:25] <skar> StoneNote: thanks for the freenx pointer, what i'd prefer is to run a gnome app on the network machine and view it from my ubuntu dekstop
[03:25] <omeil> shafto, yeah.
[03:25] <xtknight> skar: well what exactly do you want to do?  set up a multi user environment?  or, have the ability to control your desktop from elsewhere.....?
[03:25] <shafto> !nvidia
[03:25] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:25] <tuqann> infidel: I've installed the ENVY installer, but it throws an error about being unable to remove some files and some md checksum, and exits without doing anything, any ideas?
[03:25] <skar> Jowi: what does xdcmp or -X do?
[03:25] <eth01> can some1 check my /etc/network/interfaces conf? my internet wont work
[03:25] <omeil> shafto, you can use the envy installer but manually works also.
[03:26] <rambo3> remote X desktop
[03:26] <StoneNote> skar, I can run a gnome x window session over freenx. but good luck finding what you're looking for
[03:26] <skar> xtknight: i want to run some gui apps on the network machine but want to view those from my ubuntu desktop
[03:26] <shafto> omeil, I mean the drivers that are the nvidia-glx inside synaptic?
[03:26] <Jowi> skar, ssh -X will simply let you login to the remote computer. then you can run an application from there and it will show up on your local machine. "-X" is xforwarding
[03:26] <xtknight> skar: ok, so basically SSHing into your X server and being able to run stuff from there.. i dont know the best way to do it
[03:26] <eth01> can some1 check my /etc/network/interfaces conf? my internet wont work
[03:26] <Cyrus25801> i am trying to edit my xorg.conf file with gedit but it keeps telling me premission denied
[03:27] <xtknight> like Jowi said is what first came to my mind
[03:27] <xtknight> there's also 'thin clients'
[03:27] <shafto> omeil, I mean the drivers that are the nvidia-glx inside synaptic?
[03:27] <omeil> shafto, yeah, those are the ones the guide tells you to install right?, thats what i got and it works fine
[03:27] <shafto> omeil, okay :)
[03:27] <skar> StoneNote: ok i don't need remote gui login, as that'd mean i can't alt+tab between my firefox browser on my desktop and the gui html editor on the network machine
[03:27] <penguin> Cyrus25801, gksduo gedit filepath
[03:27] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: you need to use root permissions.  type 'gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf' instead
[03:27] <shafto> omeil, Do you run games on them?
[03:27] <trond> Cyrus25801: sudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:27] <Jowi> skar, xdmcp/freenx will give you the full desktop, taskbars, themes etc
[03:27] <Jowi> skar, I think ssh will suite you better.
[03:27] <Cyrus25801> xtknight: i have done that and it still tells me the same
[03:28] <skar> Jowi: so can i run gui apps on the remote machine and view them on my desktop ubuntu?
[03:28] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: close every gedit window you have open currently, and try the gksudo gedit command once again
[03:28] <Jowi> skar, yep. that's exactly what it does.
[03:28] <Xif> How do I insert a unicode character?
[03:29] <skar> Jowi: thanks, so "ssh user@ip -X" does this ?
[03:29] <tuqann> anyone help with ATI driver configuration, I have everything installed but I still have mesa drivers running
[03:29] <xtknight> Xif: into which program?
[03:29] <penguin> can anyone here help me with beryl, #ubuntu-effects is dead atm.
[03:29] <xtknight> penguin: try #beryl but i can try
[03:29] <Xif> xtknight: let's say Firefox?
[03:29] <Cyrus25801> xtknight: it says "Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file."
[03:29] <xtknight> Xif: ehh i have no idea actually
[03:29] <omeil> shafto, umm i run WoW and Steam with wine and it works really good. and i got some native linux games like Quake 3, Quake 4, NWN, Savage, RTCW Enemy territory, Tibia and a VBA emulator :D
[03:29] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: weird.
[03:29] <jrib> Xif: ctrl-shift u
[03:29] <xtknight> omeil: vba, is that visual basic for applications?
[03:29] <Jowi> skar, for example: "ssh myname@192.168.0.10 -X" will give me a login prompt on the remote machine. I login, type "firefox &" and it will start firefox on the remote machine but displaying it on my screen.
[03:29] <shafto> omeil, Thats all i needed to know, thanks :)
[03:30] <Xif> jrib: doesn't work :(
[03:30] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: when did it show that?
[03:30] <Jowi> skar, that user must exist on the remote machine of course
[03:30] <skar> Jowi:cool thats what i want, thanks a lot :)
[03:30] <jrib> Xif: what version of ubuntu?
[03:30] <Xif> jrib: Edgy
[03:30] <omeil> xtknight, no VBA Express a Gameboy Advanced Emulator, Visual Basic for Linux is Gambas
[03:30] <penguin> xtknight, i have beryl as my window manager, and metacity (gnome) as by backup, and whenever i switch to beryl as my window manager and have the "fall back to other window manager if beryl crashes" checked, it reverts to metacity, as if beryl is crashing, but i do not get an error or such.
[03:30] <Cyrus25801> xtknight:  when i type this: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:30] <xtknight> omeil: ahh neat
[03:30] <mallow23> Im running edgy eft and it wont let me log in . . . every time I try it just puts me back at gdm
[03:31] <jrib> Xif: it should work, or at least did work in GNOME for me.  How about just use the character map in your accessories menu?
[03:31] <tuqann> anyone can help set up an ati card? I have everything installed but fglrx still shows me mesa for drivers
[03:31] <xtknight> penguin: weird, what happens if you manually start beryl from the command line?  try to find an error log somehow, i suppose
[03:31] <omeil> xtknight, although, i created a couple of visual basic apps with gambas but never worked at other ubuntu people's end. which was a waste of time lol :D, now im learning python
[03:31] <krod_> Hi, How would I go about upgrading to the recent version of ubuntu?
[03:31] <foo> sudo: unable to lookup hostname  via gethostbyname() ... err, I changed the hostname via hostname newhostname and in /etc/hostname... but I forgot /etc/hosts. Anyway to fix this without physical access to the box?
[03:31] <omeil> krod_, runs fine here :)
[03:31] <jrib> foo: do you have a root password set?
[03:31] <xtknight> foo: weird, did you chroot or something?
[03:32] <penguin> xtknight, what would the command be?
[03:32] <xtknight> omeil: heh gambas never worked on my 64bit machine
[03:32] <xtknight> the pkg is broken in edgy/amd64
[03:32] <omeil> ah
[03:32] <foo> jrib: Fresh install
[03:32] <penguin> nvm.
[03:32] <xtknight> penguin: uhh 'beryl' i think, or perhaps 'beryl-manager'
[03:32] <foo> xtknight: No, not weird either... I've come across this before
[03:32] <krod_> Um, it really wasn't a question of if it worked ;)
[03:32] <jrib> foo: not a simple way that I can think of
[03:32] <krod_> I am using an out of date ubuntu version and would like to upgrade
[03:32] <Xif> jrib: sorry, it actually works :)
[03:32] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: try restarting your X session?
[03:32] <foo> jrib: err, what do I have to do - reboot and get into the recovery?
[03:32] <omeil> xtknight, i can't seem to install the latest versions through source :( i just get some gb.qt can't be found. I wonder if that gambas 2 is any good
[03:33] <jrib> foo: yeah
[03:33] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: i dont know but something odd is going on, that would be the most reliable thing to do right now
[03:33] <shafto> For the nvidia drivers it asks to install 'linux-restricted-modules'. A search in synaptic brings back loads, which ones do i need for this driver?
[03:33] <foo> jrib: eh, what a pain. thanks.
[03:33] <xtknight> omeil: i had trouble compiling it too
[03:33] <omeil> because if i installed gambas 2 or update gambas it just stops working
[03:33] <jrib> foo: unless you have a session that still has the sudo timestamp
[03:33] <cliebow> krod_:fwiw i cd /etc/apt...sed -e 's/edgy/feisty/g' -i sources.list...sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade..takes several times thru to get it right
[03:33] <piotrusgit> hi all
[03:33] <Cyrus25801> xtknight: thanx
[03:33] <AnAnt> if I login on a domain using LDAP, will the home directory be stored on the client or the domain server ?
[03:33] <foo> jrib: ah, yeah, don't think so
[03:33] <tuqann> hi, anyone can help? setting up an already installed ati driver
[03:33] <shafto> !hi > dobby
[03:33] <mallow23> can somebody help me?   GDM will not let me log in.  My username/pass are ok, but it just boots me back to gdm login screen
[03:34] <omeil> xtknight, I am starting to like python tho :). It is quite boring with the console interface but meh :D
[03:34] <dobby> hi shafto
[03:34] <shafto> For the nvidia drivers it asks to install 'linux-restricted-modules'. A search in synaptic brings back loads, which ones do i need for this driver?
[03:34] <jrib> mallow23: is there enough free space on the partition your $HOME is on?
[03:34] <omeil> shafto: The guide should guide to which one you should select :)
[03:35] <shafto> omeil, Its like do i want the non free-ones or the free ones?
[03:35] <xtknight> omeil: found a good program for making gnome applets?
[03:35] <tony__> Where can i make aliases for the terminal?
[03:35] <xtknight> tony__: ~/.bashrc
[03:35] <omeil> shafto, now im confused :)
[03:35] <gabriel_> Do you know how syncronize evolution with pocket wm5 ?
[03:35] <krod_> is there some sort of aptitude command I can use to upgrade to the recent version of ubuntu?
[03:35] <tony__> thanks
[03:36] <jrib> !upgrade > krod_    (krod_, see the private message from ubotu)
[03:36] <xtknight> krod_: dist-upgrade along with changing your sources.list.  updatemanager -c is recommended
[03:36] <xtknight> gabriel_: what is a WM5?
[03:36] <krod_> thanks
[03:36] <omeil> xtknight, well the python programming language is highly supported by Unix systems. many of our free software is written in Python.
[03:36] <shafto> omeil, well you search 'linux-restricted-modules' in synaptic and look
[03:36] <omeil> yup
[03:37] <tuqann> anyone can help here?
[03:37] <xtknight> !anyone | tuqann
[03:37] <ubotu> tuqann: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:37] <gunnarsigf> is there anyone here who can assist me? I'm new to Ubuntu and I'm having a few difficulties
[03:37] <xtknight> !anyone | gunnarsigf
[03:37] <ubotu> gunnarsigf: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:37] <mallow23> jrib: I didnt think that was the problem . . . usually when that happens there is a warning telling me there isnt enough space, but now it just boots me back to gdm
[03:37] <mallow23> I will re-try again now
[03:37] <tony__> xtknight, do i have to relogin for the changes to take affect?
[03:37] <krod_> "Your distribution is no longer supported"
[03:37] <kuchcha> Hello room
[03:38] <xtknight> tony__: you have to start a new bash
[03:38] <jrib> mallow23: k, check anyway.  If that isn't the issue, check permissions, especially on ~/.Xauthority and ~/.ICEauthority
[03:38] <carrasco> gunnarsigf, hi, what's the problem?
[03:38] <kuchcha> i have a video file and i have to delete the last ten minutes of this one...
[03:38] <kuchcha> and this file is around 700MB
[03:38] <lito> #Chile
[03:38] <tony__> xtknight, great, thanks :)
[03:38] <kuchcha> wats de best tool on ubuntu :-?
[03:38] <xtknight> kuchcha: the software to do it would be mencoder, but it's a fairly complex program requiring a lot of options.  i dont know off the top of my head how to do exactly what you're asking
[03:38] <omeil> shafto, i have the non free ones listed. although dosen't make sense :) the modules are free :)
[03:38] <tuqann> I followed tutorial instructions, asked the question on the channel before and still getting the mesa drivers, which is causing my system to halt whenever I shutdown or restart, I'm asking if anyone knows what configs I have to do to get rid of Mesa and get ATI drivers running instead
[03:39] <xtknight> !ati | tuqann
[03:39] <ubotu> tuqann: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:39] <gabriel_> Windows mobile 5
[03:39] <xtknight> hmm
[03:39] <xtknight> sorry didn't see that you had already done it
[03:39] <xtknight> gabriel_: do you know what processor is inside of it?
[03:39] <xtknight> tuqann: are the ati drivers not working?
[03:40] <xtknight> tuqann: do they not work at all or does direct rendering not show up under ati?
[03:40] <omeil> tuqann: so you installed the drivers for your ati card?
[03:40] <kuchcha> xtknight: thanks...let me explain my problem in detail.....i have this movie file which is 702.7MB but my CD can take only 700 MB...so i have to get rid of the last 10mins or so of credits/cast etc....
[03:40] <gabriel_> The pocket is an htc tytn
[03:40] <gabriel_> I ll look the processor. One moment please
[03:40] <xtknight> kuchcha: you could always try overburn which would VERY likely be able to write a couple more megs.  but if you want to trim the last few bytes let me see if i can find a tutorial
[03:41] <tuqann> evrything looks fine, but whenver I shutdown my system halts and stops responding, also the startup splash loads but when the bar is done loading the splash goes all pixy before the login screen loads up correctly
[03:41] <shafto> omeil, Can you remember which ones you selected when you installed the drivers or did you not touch them?

[03:41] <K-Dogg> ....
[03:41] <gunnarsigf> I'm having difficulties connecting to a wireless network, help anyone?
[03:41] <omeil> shafto, I just installed the ones that met the specification to the uname -r im running
[03:41] <K-Dogg> Mornign every one
[03:41] <xtknight> tuqann: and this is happening with Vesa?  please answer the above questions
[03:42] <omeil> xtknight, does ati get a splash screen? im just not sure
[03:42] <carrasco> gunnarsigf, speak details of conexion
[03:42] <IdleOne> why is k3b telling me that my .mp3's are unsupported?
[03:42] <xtknight> omeil:  i dont believe ati does
[03:43] <xtknight> !restricted-formats | IdleOne
[03:43] <tuqann> I really don't know how to test for "direct rendering", but the x-session runs smoothly, no dust on that, my system runs fine like it used to with Dapper (though my move to Edgy is not an upgrade it's a fresh install) only I can't shutdown or restart
[03:43] <gunnarsigf> I'm using KWiFi Manager and it seems to find the wireless connection but I can't connect to it
[03:43] <IdleOne> xtknight, I have all the codecs installed
[03:43] <Stormx2> Hey folks. Under edgy, firefox has an inline spell checker. Can I extend this to the entire document (paragraphs and all)?
[03:43] <omeil> tuqann: how does glx-gears run?
[03:43] <gabriel_> Samsung 2442 400MHz
[03:43] <xtknight> tuqann: type "glxinfo | grep rendering"  and see if it says Yes or No
[03:44] <makki> how can i mount ext3 partition in ubuntu?
[03:44] <tuqann> no direct rending
[03:44] <carrasco> tuqann, to test direct rendering, type :   glxinfo | grep rendering
[03:44] <xtknight> gabriel_: apparently it is possible http://www.mobilegadgetnews.com/index.php?showtopic=12829
[03:44] <xtknight> makki: easily
[03:44] <rickyfingers> makki: just type sudo mount /dev/hdwhatever /directory-u-want-to-mount-to
[03:45] <omeil> tuqann: gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and check if drive is "ati"
[03:45] <omeil> driver*
[03:45] <xtknight> tuqann: are you running the ati drivers right now?  "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep fglrx"
[03:45] <omeil> or that lol :)
[03:45] <xtknight> ati/radeon is the open source, fglrx is closed source
[03:46] <xtknight> Stormx2: what do you mean the entire doc?
[03:46] <tuqann> Section "Device"

[03:46] <Stormx2> xtknight: I don't want it limited to text box. I'm designing something in XHTML...
[03:46] <tuqann> sorry
[03:46] <omeil> That looks right
[03:46] <xtknight> tuqann: ok you are using the slow open source one right now.  but you said you had trouble shutting down, why did you think it was the video driver?
[03:46] <tuqann> I'll use that
[03:47] <xtknight> Stormx2: oh.  hmm i dont know many Composer can do it?
[03:47] <tuqann> I asked on the chan, and someone mentioned it is a graphic problem
[03:47] <NkZ> Greetings, Is there any specialized channel on "GDesklets"?
[03:47] <kuchcha> xtknight: thanks a lot man :)
[03:47] <xtknight> tuqann: ok we can try.  you have followed these instructions?
[03:47] <xtknight> !ati|tuqann
[03:47] <ubotu> tuqann: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:47] <omeil> shafto, hows things?
[03:47] <xtknight> NkZ: not that i know of, try asking here
[03:47] <tuqann> I did the BinaryHowTo to the letter, still getting "mesa" whenever I type fglrxinfo in the terminal
[03:48] <xtknight> tuqann: is it any slower with Mesa/FGLRX than with ATI?
[03:48] <xtknight> tuqann: and even though it's mesa, does it solve your shutdown issues?
[03:48] <shinichizio> Hello! Is it permissible to ask questions about something not EXACTLY Ubuntu-related, but just a program in the basic package?
[03:48] <xtknight> shinichizio: certainly
[03:49] <tuqann> xtknight: whct do you think is my shutdown problem?
[03:49] <xtknight> tuqann: i have absolutely no idea, sadly
[03:49] <xtknight> tuqann: but do the fglrx drivers fix it..?
[03:49] <NkZ> Okay. In that case, My Problem is this: Every time I run Gdesklets, The Desklets I activate start taking up spaces on the Panel's "Window List". How can I prevent this from happening.
[03:49] <gabriel_> thanks. I ll try
[03:49] <xtknight> NkZ: hmm.  is there an offset you can set anywhere for the allowable desk size in the options?
[03:49] <shinichizio> I'm on a dial-up connection, using 'Gnome-PPP'. I want to somehow either be notified or just have my connection drop any time I get a call on this line. How do I do this?
[03:50] <tuqann> xtknight: I really don't know if the fglrx drivers would fix it, but I'm attempting to set them up and check if my shutdown problems would be solved, I seem to miss a step that keeps using the mesa drivers instead of the ATI, mine is an x700 mobile
[03:50] <NkZ> XtKnight: I didn't quite understand that question.
[03:50] <xtknight> tuqann: but you typed fglrxinfo and said there was mesa...implying you had tried fglrx.  otherwise you wouldnt have fglrxinfo right?
[03:51] <xtknight> NkZ: well i was thinking you could adjust the viewport of the gdesklets to push them off the panel
[03:51] <xtknight> NkZ: like set a pixel offset of -30 or so so it misses the panel
[03:51] <omeil> xtknight, you know VB?
[03:51] <xtknight> omeil: inside and out yeah hehe
[03:51] <NkZ> xtKnight: That's awesomely clever. I will try that one out.
[03:52] <omeil> xtknight, lol :) whats the latest thing u created?
[03:52] <tuqann> xtknight: yes, I installed fglrx, first I installed an ati-driver.run from the ATI website, then I installed using the method in the !ati tutorial, but nothing changed yet when the shutdown
[03:52] <xtknight> omeil: mostly data processing stuff, i do vba for work
[03:52] <xtknight> omeil: from within vmware actually
[03:52] <xtknight> omeil: mostly stuff for transportation (car crashes/etc).  i suppose we should take this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:53] <xtknight> tuqann: i just need to know if you ever had the fglrx drivers running though
[03:53] <gunnarsigf> My screen is 1280x800 px (video-card: ATI Mobility Radeon X1600) but I don't know how to change my screen resolution because now it is 1024x768
[03:54] <xtknight> !resolution | gunnarsigf
[03:54] <ubotu> gunnarsigf: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:54] <shinichizio> :| So, asking about Gnome-PPP != permissible. Righto.
[03:54] <gunnarsigf> thanks
[03:54] <xtknight> shinichizio: noone said that
[03:54] <xtknight> shinichizio: nobody knows the answer
[03:54] <shinichizio> xtknight: oh. heh.
[03:54] <tuqann> xtknight: I'm typing gflrxinfo in the terminal and I'm getting "command not found", though I could have sworn it worked before
[03:54] <xtknight> shinichizio: try #linux or #debian
[03:54] <cyt> I can play mpeg file with sound on, but when viewing rm/rmvb file, the sound is off, even if I don't mute. Any suggestions?
[03:55] <shinichizio> xtknight: I see. Thanks, I'll stop wasting your time here.
[03:55] <xtknight> tuqann: ok well then i guess you did have them loaded at one point.  that's what i was woneirng
[03:55] <NkZ> xtKnight: That did the Job, Thanks for the Suggestion. :-)
[03:55] <xtknight> NkZ: cool
[03:55] <NkZ> See yas around !
[03:55] <drummer1189> hello
[03:55] <xtknight> !hi
[03:55] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:55] <drummer1189> could someone help me?
[03:56] <xtknight> ask your question
[03:56] <drummer1189> well
[03:56] <hungar> Hi, is it possible to "simulate" a reboot. Im planing to reboot my server but im not sure it will boot and im about 2000 miles from the server and the technichans are not at the spot right now.
[03:56] <drummer1189> im trying to follow thing how to
[03:56] <drummer1189> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297092&highlight=e1505
[03:56] <xtknight> hungar: well not really.  but if there's something specific you need to reboot you can just reboot that
[03:56] <drummer1189> i got throught it
[03:56] <jetscreamer> hungar: iirc yes, man shutdown
[03:57] <drummer1189> and it says software found, hardware found
[03:57] <jrib> !enter | drummer1189
[03:57] <ubotu> drummer1189: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:57] <hungar> xtknight: want to make sure everything works fine.
[03:57] <hungar> jetscreamer: well... i don't want to warn anyone
[03:57] <drummer1189> sure
[03:57] <hungar> i want to make sure a "reboot" works fine
[03:57] <jetscreamer> -k     Don't  really shutdown; only send the warning messages to everybody... mmm maybe not
[03:57] <hungar> you missunderstand me
[03:57] <hungar> jetscreamer: i want to make sure my server boots when im rebooting
[03:58] <hungar> without accully doing it.
[03:58] <PriceChild> hungar, only thing you "NEED" to reboot for is to switch kernel... which will lchange pretty soon.
[03:58] <hungar> so it won't fail when i reboot
[03:58] <xtknight> hungar:  you pretty much need to reboot to test if a reboot works
[03:58] <hungar> PriceChild: well... i want to know if the server will fail or not.
[03:58] <PriceChild> hungar, well then yeah, only one way to know ;)
[03:58] <hungar> :/
[03:59] <sluimers> Hi, where can I find better drivers for an Intel video media-accelerator 900, 128 MB?
[03:59] <drummer1189> however the light never turned on and wireless isnt even listen in the wired, wireless, modem. i did have one problem with the sudo make stuff but that was the only problem and i install ndiswrapper through sudo apt-get install
[03:59] <jetscreamer> hungar: maybe changing runlevel might tell you what you want to know... might not
[04:00] <xtknight> !intel
[04:00] <dr_wu> Does anyone here use the Google Calendar daemon GCALDaemon?
[04:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about intel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:00] <sluimers> !intel
[04:00] <xtknight> sluimers: i think there are some on intel's site though they aren't very easy to install
[04:00] <xtknight> drummer1189: we'd need to know the problem you had with sudo make, as it could have been fatal
[04:01] <drummer1189> No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[04:01] <xtknight> slight problem
[04:01] <xtknight> :P
[04:01] <xtknight> drummer1189: where are you typing make?
[04:01] <drummer1189> terminal
[04:01] <tuqann> xtknight: I have DISABLED_MODULES="fglrx| in the linux-restricted-modules-common, is that correct?
[04:02] <drummer1189> i dont think thats the right error though
[04:02] <xtknight> tuqann: eh?  i guess so.  it sounds like you're disabling the built-in fglrx, and that sounds right to me if you're trying drivers off ati.com
[04:02] <drummer1189> let me run throught it one more time
[04:02] <xtknight> drummer1189: sounds good
[04:02] <drummer1189> well, i installed ndiswrapper through sudo apt-get install
[04:03] <drummer1189> i dont know what directory it extracted to which is probably why it didnt work

[04:06] <sluimers> I found the correct driver, now how would I install it?
[04:07] <drummer1189> so can anyone help me?
[04:07] <ompaul> drummer1189, all I can point you to is the wireless instructions

[04:07] <Matic`Makovec> Why does gaim close from time to time by itself? :X
[04:08] <waxyfresh> anyone elsehere use listen music player?i dont but the icon just randomly added itself tomy taskbar,why did it do that
[04:08] <oopsy> hey
[04:08] <oopsy> can anyone help me out?

[04:08] <oopsy> I finally got my wireless connection working on dapper
[04:08] <StanRex> hi there
[04:08] <drummer1189> i dont need help with the wireless, its all in the howto im just a noob
[04:08] <Paddy_EIRE> waxyfresh, did you install it with Automatix
[04:08] <StanRex> if I have questions for 6.10 where should I ask them?
[04:08] <compengi> StanRex, here :)
[04:08] <oopsy> StanRex, here I believe
[04:08] <StanRex> cool, thanks ^^
[04:09] <oopsy> I only have 11mb/s in my wireless connection
[04:09] <waxyfresh> Paddy_EIRE: like 3 weeks ago and havent touched it
[04:09] <oopsy> isn't there a way to make it bigger, like the 54mb/s I had in windows?
[04:10] <StanRex> er, well, I just burnt a cd with 6.10, rebooted with the cd in the drive, selected install, it loaded for 1 or 2 minutes, and then my screen displayed something like "unsupported mode", and went off
[04:10] <Paddy_EIRE> waxyfresh, then automatix must be to blame, and is not supported by these channels! as I found out
[04:10] <FordCapri> i've got a bunch of diffed tars, do i just untar one over the other starting with the earliest?
[04:10] <waxyfresh> oopsy: your signal shouldent be dependent on you os unless the drivers are bunk
[04:11] <oopsy> hum bunk? o.o
[04:11] <StanRex> I m wondering if it could be because I have two hd in raid0, and a windows install on the first partition
[04:11] <oopsy> I can't use the network manager in administration
[04:11] <oopsy> when I configure my ra0 there
[04:11] <oopsy> ubuntu just won't boot
[04:12] <oopsy> so im using wifi radar
[04:12] <rambo3> whatfor
[04:13] <StanRex> oopsy, what do you mean by ra0?
[04:13] <spiderworm> can anyone tell me how to remove a package that could not fully install, only partially installed, so that it doesnt cause apt to choke everytime it tries to do something?
[04:13] <finalbeta> oopsy: if you have a bcm43xx chip and using native drivers it will only work at 11Mbit, NDiswrapper can go faster I believe, and this seems fixed in Feisty because it uses the new wireless stack.
[04:13] <bulmer> oopsy: you tried iwlist ra0 featurehere ?
[04:13] <oopsy> it seems I fixed it :D
[04:13] <oopsy> i used
[04:13] <oopsy> sudo iwconfig ra0 rate 54M auto
[04:13] <oopsy> and then when I type iwconfig
[04:13] <bulmer> there you go
[04:13] <oopsy> it shows 54mb/s there
[04:14] <oopsy> thanks everyone. :D
[04:14] <bulmer> congrats
[04:15] <StanRex> it seems that I need the alternate cd to install ubuntu on a raid0 system
[04:15] <rambo3> dselect is evil
[04:15] <jetscreamer> yeah everybody sayis that
[04:15] <jetscreamer> says
[04:16] <StanRex> huh
[04:16] <StanRex> I cant find the alternate cd in the download pages
[04:16] <rambo3> choose other options
[04:16] <StanRex> does anyone know if it somehow disappeared?
[04:16] <Paddy_EIRE> is there an irc channel for Linux Mint
[04:16] <ompaul> StanRex, yeap: or a server one: http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html
[04:17] <oopsy> humm
[04:17] <ompaul> StanRex, the cd you get buy going to a mirror and looking for it
[04:17] <oopsy> downloads are still kinda slow, but browsing seems to be at full speed
[04:17] <oopsy> should I reboot?
[04:17] <StanRex> ok, thanks ompaul, will try this
[04:17] <rambo3> StanRex, http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/downloadmirrors

[04:19] <StanRex> yup, found it, thanks guys
[04:20] <Heywood> hey, anyone around?
[04:20] <Paddy_EIRE> no
[04:20] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[04:20] <Tallen> no, all 1059 users are away.
[04:20] <Heywood> haha, I'm a tard....
[04:21] <Heywood> I have a quick question I was hoping someone could help me with. Well, maybe not so quick....
[04:21] <xtknight> please people save us the emotional stuff just ask the question!
[04:21] <xtknight> that's ok i'd rather have somebody ask how to take over the world with ubuntu than ask to ask :P
[04:21] <Paddy_EIRE> now that would be cool
[04:22] <Heywood> haha, okay. First off, I'm a complete Linux/Ubuntu noob. I just downloaded Ubuntu 704 beta and burned it onto a CD, and when I restart my computer and boot from CD, it gets to the Ubuntu loading screen, and then just freezes
[04:22] <xtknight> Heywood: wait...noob...7.04.  ok why did you install that instead of edgy if i may ask?
[04:22] <Martin__> hola
[04:22] <rambo3> can you import #debian 's dpkg 's !fstab to ubotu instead ubotus
[04:23] <xtknight> !hi | Martin__
[04:23] <ubotu> Martin__: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:23] <Paddy_EIRE> Heywood, did you do a checksum of the image, or run check disk when you boot the cd
[04:23] <Heywood> Well, when I tried to burn edgy onto a cd, it said not enough room on the CD, even though there clearly is...
[04:23] <Martin__> hi!
[04:23] <xtknight> Heywood: were you using a 700M cd?
[04:23] <Heywood> yeah
[04:23] <Paddy_EIRE> Heywood, what burning software did you use
[04:23] <Heywood> Alcohol 120
[04:23] <xtknight> odd.  well Feisty (7.04) support is in #ubuntu+1 and so am i so i may be able to help you there.  they dont like feisty questions in this channel
[04:24] <Heywood> alright, I'm already in that channel as well
[04:24] <rickyfingers> anyone know why I can't run firefox in chroot'd environment - getting cannot open display error but env shows display variable is set?
[04:24] <crayzee> ALSA works fine for playing music, but I have to close everything that uses it to use mythtv or unreal-tournament. Google says it might be something to do with "dmix",but I have tried lots of fixes to little avail. Any ideas? [AMD X2, ASUS M2N-SLI mobo with onboard NVidia sound]

[04:25] <rickyfingers> crayzee: env says "XAUTHORITY=/tmp/.gdmYJKZPT" do I have to delete it or something?
[04:26] <crayzee> Can you access that file from within the chroot?

[04:26] <rickyfingers> crayzee: let me check...
[04:26] <StanRex> huhu

[04:27] <StanRex> and I m connected with wifi...
[04:27] <crayzee> Sound is really choppy in unreal-tournament; how to fix?

[04:27] <anacaona> hello all. i'm having problems with the mpage package. if i try to use it (even just help) it prints nothing but gobbledygook on the screen.
[04:28] <Broady> What's the command to unhide a folder
[04:28] <rickyfingers> crayzee: do I only have to copy it once, or like every time I start a new x session?
[04:28] <whyameye> what is the livecd build?
[04:28] <LjL> Broady: you mean folders whose names begin with a "."?
[04:28] <crayzee> rickyfingers, *shrug*
[04:28] <crayzee> rickyfingers, it was just a lucky guess, I dont do chrooting... :)
[04:28] <Broady> LjL: naw, this is in MacOS, i thought it'd be similar
[04:28] <xtknight> i don't believe you can make them unhidden.  if they begin with . they are hidden, if not they are viewable
[04:28] <Broady> but no, they dont have . in front
[04:29] <xtknight> but you can show hidden folders
[04:29] <Broady> even with ls they dont show... need ls -a
[04:29] <xtknight> Broady: is this an HFS+ file system?
[04:29] <rickyfingers> crayzee: I think your idea was correct, but I'm still getting the error.  Will google now.
[04:29] <LjL> Broady: i doubt it's similar, the only "standard" Unix way to have hidden files is prefixing a . (and they're hidden only to some extent really, it's not like a true "hidden" attribute)
[04:29] <Broady> xtknight: yes
[04:29] <xtknight> i think they come up in normal 'stat's etc, it's up to the program to hide .s
[04:30] <Broady> hm ok.
[04:30] <xtknight> Broady: they do not start with . yet they are hidden?  must be an HFS attribute, look up HFS tools
[04:30] <Broady> xtknight: thanks
[04:32] <StanRex> (back)
[04:32] <StanRex> apparently, feisty has a better support of raid0 than edgy
[04:32] <StanRex> would it be suicide for someone who never installed linux to try to install the feisty beta?
[04:33] <xtknight> StanRex: hardly, its' not like it's a volatile chemical substance
[04:33] <xtknight> StanRex: but the responsibility is with you ultimately
[04:33] <LjL> StanRex: it's not any harder than Edgy or Dapper - *if* it works. if there's some problems (which is likely since it's a beta), you'll be in trouble.
[04:33] <StanRex> (with a raid0 setup)
[04:33] <xtknight> starting with a beta isnt such a bad thing.  you will run into problems and learn to fix them
[04:33] <omeil> Ubuntu has come quite a long way. maybe its not such a bad beta
[04:33] <StanRex> (and a windows xp partition on it that I want to keep)
[04:33] <xtknight> you will have plenty of problems with regular ubuntu though probably :D
[04:34] <StanRex> mmm
[04:34] <xtknight> StanRex: well there was a bug in the partition manager a while ago where it wiped every partition on your system, but that has long been fixed.  i dont think that was feisty anyway but that's the most serious bug ive ever heard
[04:34] <matt____> what is this about feisty having built in virtualization?
[04:34] <LjL> omeil, i find it nice enough. but a beta of a wonderful program it's still a beta - it's *intended* as one...
[04:34] <xtknight> matt____: kvm in the kernel
[04:34] <matt____> xtknight: explain that..
[04:35] <omeil> but im gonna stick to edgy for a while :) ill go to fiesty when we have a release
[04:35] <xtknight> matt____: it uses the AMD Pacifica and Intel VT instructions in newer revs of amd athlon 64 and Intel Core 2 Duo/Xeon CPUs
[04:35] <xtknight> matt____: they allow more flexibility, like the ability to run Windows on Xen
[04:35] <LjL> matt____: the kernel -- if the CPU supports that -- exposes features that allow to recreate a superuser mode "virtual CPU" in userland.
[04:35] <xtknight> matt____: but the instructions as they stand do NOT increase performance
[04:35] <matt____> xtknight: so, what method would i go about it so i could install xp?
[04:35] <StanRex> mmmm
[04:35] <rossi777> halooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[04:35] <xtknight> xp in vmware is still faster than under KVM
[04:35] <StanRex> I think I ll just wait for a feisty release to install ubuntu
[04:36] <LjL> xtknight: how come?
[04:36] <xtknight> LjL: because the kvm instructions do not make it faster, they only do what you say
[04:36] <StanRex> and if raid0 works ok on this feisty release I'll install it
[04:36] <omeil> xtknight, how much mb is a .vmx file?
[04:36] <matt____> xtknight: i tried setting up vmware server in dapper, i had the hardest time, something about source code not in my kernel, i think. how hard will vmware server be to set up in feisty?
[04:36] <LjL> xtknight: *if* those instructions are available, they *should* increase performance, since the piece of code that would normally (i.e. under VMWare and friends) be executed by emulation (superuser code, etc) can be executed natively
[04:36] <xtknight> omeil: a vmx is next to nothing, that is just info for a virtual machine.  the virtual machine disk can be any size
[04:37] <xtknight> LjL: kqemu (kvm) doesn't have mouse drivers either so it feels slower than VMware ultimately
[04:37] <xtknight> sorry i should clarify.  kqemu is not relaly kvm, but kqemu w/ kvm
[04:37] <LjL> xtknight: kqemu = kvm? only if you don't have those instructions, i thought
[04:37] <LjL> i see
[04:37] <omeil> xtknight i just installed wm ware and a window opened tfor me to select a .vmx file?
[04:37] <brian_> Anyone know where I can get an ffmpeg package with the flv stuff built in? Having trouble compiling it myself.
[04:37] <xtknight> matt____: you just need linux-headers probably for source code
[04:37] <xtknight> matt____: other than that vmware is one of the easies things to install
[04:37] <omeil> vm
[04:37] <LjL> omeil: yes, you need to select a virtual machine
[04:37] <LjL> !vmware > omeil    (omeil, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:37] <xtknight> omeil: you need to make one with VMWare sever
[04:38] <matt____> xtknight: ok, i will defiantly try that when i install feisty, coming out the 20th>?
[04:38] <LjL> xtknight: not necessarily...
[04:38] <LjL> !vmware
[04:38] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[04:38] <xtknight> ah yeah or download one
[04:38] <xtknight> ubuntu has some on their server too
[04:38] <Preserved> Anyone knows how to change the metadata on a fat32 disk?
[04:38] <LjL> and qemu can create images as well, then just write a config file
[04:38] <Martin__> can't sincronize mi tungete t5 in ubuntu
[04:38] <brian_> !ffmpeg
[04:38] <xtknight> LjL: the instructions actually decrease performance in most cases
[04:38] <ubotu> ffmpeg: multimedia player, server and encoder. In component universe, is optional. Version 3:0.cvs20060823-3.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 175 kB, installed size 612 kB
[04:39] <xtknight> LjL: the hardware 'accelerated' VT instructions are in most cases slower than the software equivalents, at least in VMware
[04:39] <LjL> xtknight: nah no need to download a ready made machine, you just need 1) a working config file 2) an empty HD image. easyvmx does that easily, or one can use qemu-image, if they're familiar with the config file syntax
[04:39] <xtknight> LjL: the VT instructions are, right now, to mainly increase flexibility.  you could not run windwos under Xen before due to some kernel limitation i believe.  VT alleviates that
[04:39] <LjL> xtknight: i see, then i suspect they're very poorly implemented in the current breed of CPU...
[04:39] <Preserved> I have a fat32 disk which has a directory that shows up as a file. If I am correctly informed the metadata is corrupt. How can I fix this?
[04:39] <xtknight> LjL: yup that's exactly the reason
[04:39] <xtknight> LjL: future ones may increase performance
[04:40] <LjL> xtknight: but then you could under VMWare, and i thought Xen's main advantage over VMWare was intended to be... speed ;)
[04:40] <xtknight> i thuoght so too, too bad Xen is a pain to setup :P
[04:40] <LjL> heh
[04:40] <xtknight> plus i dont like the idea
[04:40] <Tokimasa> I'm going to download Xubuntu for use as a Teamspeak server and NFS for a few friends on a P3 with 300-someodd gigs of RAM. Is this a good choice?
[04:40] <xtknight> vmware works fine for me, it is very fast in most cases.  wouldn't i need to run two virtual things under xen to have what i have now?
[04:40] <Pelo> Preserved,  search the forum for the exact error msg
[04:40] <xtknight> i would have to virtualize my linux too, blah ;O
[04:40] <rickyfingers> ubotu tell rickyfingers about chroot
[04:41] <MetaMorfoziS> how can i get my kernel boot flags ?
[04:41] <adaptr> by looking in your bootloader config ?
[04:41] <xtknight> MetaMorfoziS: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:41] <MetaMorfoziS> no, the problem is i don't know what i'm started
[04:41] <Preserved> Pelo: I don't get an error message. The directory just shows up as an regular file.
[04:41] <Tallen> ubotu tell Tallen about chroot
[04:41] <MetaMorfoziS> the recovery or the normal
[04:41] <xtknight> with a txt editor
[04:41] <MetaMorfoziS> in grub...
[04:41] <Pelo> Preserved,  then search the forum for what you think the problem is
[04:42] <MetalWolf> hi.  I just installed Ubuntu 6.10 server to play with.  I have since removed a network card and put another one in meaning I now have eth0, eth2.  I can not find the config file where I can change this... any ideas?
[04:42] <xtknight> MetalWolf: i think it's a file called "interfaces" but dont quote me
[04:42] <MetaMorfoziS> /etc/network/devices ?
[04:42] <rambo3> !info clamav edgy-backports
[04:42] <ubotu> Package clamav does not exist in edgy-backports
[04:42] <MetaMorfoziS> interfaces*
[04:43] <Pelo> MetalWolf, menu > system > admin > hardware manager ,  there is a button at the bottom that scans your system , try that
[04:43] <MetalWolf> I don't think you can specify inside that though MetaMorfoziS.
[04:43] <_charles> I need somehelp I am under time constraints due to my bandwidth being shaped in peek but not off peek times I am rushing to get the 64bit version of Edgy ubuntu I just have a question due to time constraints I will try to get as much installed before bed but tomorrow I am thinking about getting a nvidia video card for it will there be any problems changing it? or is it just plug and play?
[04:43] <omeil> xtknight, did u enable your direct x in vmware?
[04:43] <xtknight> omeil: i have tried, though wasnt able to do much with it
[04:43] <MetaMorfoziS> it's possible, then i don't kno
[04:43] <MetaMorfoziS> w
[04:43] <xtknight> is vmware 6 final out yet? anyone?
[04:43] <MetalWolf> Pelo - I have no gui.
[04:43] <xtknight> _charles: which nvidia card
[04:43] <Pelo> MetalWolf, give me a minute
[04:44] <atoponce> _charles: what nvidia card are you getting?
[04:44] <SirOsisOfTheLive> I want to use bash.  Is it the default for ubuntu 6.10? or do i have to change it.
[04:44] <xtknight> SirOsisOfTheLive: yes it is the default
[04:44] <Preserved> Pelo: The problem is that this problem is so specifik so the chance of it being on the forum is abyssmal and besides I have already tried that.
[04:44] <_charles> xtknight: i dont currently know, All i know is i am prepared to spend a few hundred on an agp nvidia card  i would be happy with the x800 in the computer but ati have shit drivers
[04:44] <atoponce> SirOsisOfTheLive: yes. bash is the default
[04:45] <xtknight> _charles: well if it's anything less than the 8800 it should work.  maybe even the 8800 works now
[04:45] <atoponce> !language | _charles
[04:45] <ubotu> _charles: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:45] <vox754> _charles, don't get the 64 bit version if you only need it as a desktop PC. The i386 version is better supported in terms of packages and video codecs and other stuff
[04:45] <Remo_A> hi, how can I create a .deb file out of a package.tar.gz that is not in the actual ubuntu repo, nor backport, and use it?
[04:45] <xtknight> !info checkinstall | Remo_A
[04:45] <ubotu> remo_a: checkinstall: installation tracker. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.0-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 88 kB, installed size 392 kB
[04:45] <omeil> xtknight, so i have to insert my xp cd and install windows?
[04:45] <xtknight> omeil: yup
[04:46] <tts> hello all
[04:46] <omeil> screw that lol :) im at the state of lazyness
[04:46] <_charles> xtknight the computer mobo is agp and i would assume the card you referred to is PCIE so that shouldnt be a problem. Have you used the nvidia Drivers?? Do you think its worth the cash to change from ati to nvidia just for drivers?
[04:46] <xtknight> _charles: i do think it's worth it;.  i used to have ati, and i like nvidia w/ linux much better
[04:47] <xtknight> _charles: ati would always crash.  plus nvidia has better dual monitor support too
[04:47] <Remo_A> xtknight: that looks nice!
[04:47] <xtknight> Remo_A: yeah ive made several pkgs out of it
[04:47] <tts> i cant seen to get my grub working ,thing is i have only one drive installed "sata sda3"  dose grub have to be installed at (hd0) ? or can i install it at sda3 ?
[04:47] <xtknight> Remo_A: i edit the packages using GNU ar....simplest way for me, none of the debian stuff made much sense to me
[04:48] <Remo_A> *g okay
[04:48] <xtknight> tts: you can install grub anywhere you want but it will need to boot somehow
[04:48] <xtknight> tts: (hd0) is almost always the best option
[04:48] <xtknight> if it's not working there with only one HD i dont know what to say
[04:48] <MetalWolf> pelo : not to worry I'll just run with them out of sequence.
[04:48] <morpheus74> Hello.  I'm having some issues with the internet connection.  I installed 6.10 on my parents computer that has only a pci wireless card.  I was able to download all the updates, but when trying to 'surf the web' pages sometimes load, and sometimes will not.  Any ideas?
[04:49] <xtknight> morpheus74: maybe the wireless signal strength is poor
[04:49] <atoponce> morpheus74: sounds like the signal strength is bad
[04:49] <atoponce> morpheus74: maybe move the signal closer to the computer?
[04:49] <andre_pl> this is a feisty issue but no help there atm... i seem to have lost my nvidia module and i can't get it back. :( need some help, bigtime.
[04:49] <xtknight> or less likely, your DNS server is having problems, or less likely yet your network drivers have a bug
[04:49] <morpheus74> xtknight, I thought the same thing, but then I wondered why it would download the updates without issue.
[04:49] <chesney> Guys whats the best way to pull down the 1.6 j2re?
[04:49] <deetah> how to change the language of my server's system?
[04:49] <Pelo> afk
[04:50] <chesney> I can't seem to get apt-get to pull down java aything.
[04:50] <rambo3> deetah, locales or what
[04:50] <atoponce> chesney: off of the java.sun.com site directly
[04:50] <jetscreamer> dpkg-reconfigure locales && dpkg-reconfigure console-data maybe
[04:50] <bulmer> chesney: you can always download from sun's site
[04:50] <rambo3> i think its locale.conf now
[04:50] <chesney> bulmer, thats what I figured. Thanks.
[04:50] <bulmer> chesney and then update the update-package to reflect a new selection
[04:50] <MajorPayne> chesney: I had to download it from the sun site.
[04:50] <morpheus74> atoponce, The wired thing is the connection works great with XP.
[04:51] <drummer1189> hello
[04:51] <tts> xtknight: i only have a sata drive doesn't hd0 mean the IDE drive ?
[04:51] <atoponce> morpheus74: wired or weird?
[04:51] <deetah> rambo3: tried dpkg-reconfigure locales but it doesn't ask me what locales to generate
[04:51] <omeil> morpheus74, did u try a different browser?, just dosen't make sense :( if it dloaded the updates, that means its uploading and downloading :(
[04:51] <andre_pl> tts: not necessarily.
[04:51] <rambo3> deetah, its locales.conf now
[04:51] <xtknight> tts: nope it can be sata
[04:51] <atoponce> morpheus74: you may have had a strong enough connection for the updates
[04:51] <atoponce> morpheus74: wireless is picky like that
[04:51] <morpheus74> sorry, weird.
[04:52] <omeil> any difference if u move the computer closer to the W hub?
[04:52] <morpheus74> omeil, That's an excellent point.  I'm somewhat new to Linux; what other browser would you recommend?
[04:52] <atoponce> morpheus74: hmmm. not sure then. i've never been real good with wireless in linux
[04:53] <drummer1189> i installed the driver for my wireless card, it says software present, hardware present. however its not working, wireless isnt even an option
[04:53] <omeil> morpheus74, what did u try with?
[04:53] <findeton__> hi i need to install lash-dev, how can i?
[04:53] <morpheus74> atoponce, It seems like you said, that wireless is very picky.
[04:53] <tts> im so confused right now ,grub stoped working when i removed to IDE drives
[04:53] <morpheus74> omeil, Firefox.
[04:54] <zidane2> when if stable feisty releasted
[04:54] <omeil> morpheus74, just download some random browser, or better yet have u tried logging in gaim? or Xchat?
[04:54] <xtknight> !feisty | zidane2
[04:54] <ubotu> zidane2: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007. Beta is out! http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta Schedule: !schedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[04:54] <andre_pl> Pelo: ubuntu is definitely not the quickest booting OS i've used.
[04:55] <morpheus74> omeil, No, I've not tried xchat or gaim.  If those work, then I can narrow it down to the browser as the issue.
[04:55] <Pelo> andre_pl, well on this computer I get to work faster then when I boot xp
[04:55] <omeil> morpheus74, yup thats right
[04:55] <Stormx2> andre_pl: Is for me.
[04:55] <Stormx2> andre_pl: By far the quickest.
[04:55] <morpheus74> Thanks all for the help!
[04:55] <findeton__> i can't find a .deb o the sources of lash-dev :P
[04:55] <Pelo> I was wondering if I was reading some king of clever FUD
[04:55] <larson9999> so many podcasts. so little time
[04:55] <drummer1189> could i have some help?
[04:55] <ubuntu_noob> hello room
[04:56] <rambo3> deetah, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf
[04:56] <Pelo> drummer1189,  no , we don'T know what to help you with
[04:56] <spamtrooper> hey people i got a question
[04:56] <omeil> I have had OS's that boot faster than ubuntu but unbuntu is by far the most stable OS i have used
[04:56] <rambo3> !locales | rambo3
[04:56] <andre_pl> Stormx2: i'm assuming the only other OS you've used is windows then.. :P  this is the first distro i've used that does the whole initramfs thing to load kernel modules, and its much slower than booting a kernel thats custom built.
[04:56] <mjunx> hey, which package deals with /etc/hosts?
[04:56] <Stormx2> findeton__: sudo apt-get install liblash-dev
[04:56] <mjunx> !ask | spamtrooper
[04:56] <ubotu> spamtrooper: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:56] <mjunx> gah, don't use apt-get, use aptitude!!
[04:56] <Stormx2> Why?
[04:56] <mjunx> ask the debian guys
[04:56] <jetscreamer> lol
[04:56] <spamtrooper> ok... is it possible to remove GRUB from a disk without losing any data?
[04:56] <mjunx> apt-get has been superceded by aptitude since debian 3.1, released in 2005
[04:57] <Remo_A> why does making shadow in Imagemagick using png file use so much of dataspace? -> 0.5MB for a picture that had 50KB before!
[04:57] <tts> it installs all the dependencies
[04:57] <jetscreamer> yes spamtrooper
[04:57] <spamtrooper> ok, how?
[04:57] <ubuntu_noob> How do I restore the taskbar that minimizes windows. ?
[04:57] <Pelo> spamtrooper,   go and ask in #grub
[04:57] <Stormx2> apt-get installs dependancies...
[04:57] <spamtrooper> ah ok
[04:57] <jetscreamer> spamtrooper: you usually just need to install another bootloader
[04:57] <omeil> so whats the big difference between apt-get and aptitude?
[04:57] <Pelo> ubuntu_noob,  do you mean the bottom gnome panel ?
[04:57] <findeton__> thanks Stormx2
[04:57] <h1st0> omeil: at this point not much.
[04:57] <jetscreamer> spamtrooper: what do you want to use
[04:57] <ubuntu_noob> yeah
[04:57] <andre_pl> omeil: aptitude installs and removes dependencites
[04:57] <mjunx> omeil, aptitude handles depencies better I hear
[04:58] <h1st0> omeil: or I should say as of fiesty.
[04:58] <jetscreamer> #grub is slow btw
[04:58] <h1st0> mjunx: not as of edgy they both handle them the same.
[04:58] <mjunx> and it has a cool textual interface if you just run it as aptitude
[04:58] <deafboy> does anyone know how to import music from an ipod via amarok, the amarok irc channel is silent?
[04:58] <h1st0> omeil: err I meant as of edgy.
[04:58] <Pelo> ubuntu_noob,   right click the top pannel and add a pannel,  then you add the pannel apps you want to it
[04:58] <mjunx> h1st0, apt-get now has autoremove stuff, but I hate it because it doesn't like me
[04:58] <jrib> omeil: aptitude will automatically keep track of the dependencies installed for package X and when you remove package X it will also remove those dependencies if nothing else needs them
[04:58] <ubuntu_noob> actually, what I meant is the minimizing function
[04:58] <omeil> oh so apt-get dosen't automatically remove unneeded dependencies while aptitude does?
[04:58] <mjunx> I install things via build-dep, and then it doesn't know I still want them
[04:58] <jetscreamer> omeil: basically yes
[04:58] <jrib> omeil: apt-get has autoremove but it is buggy...
[04:58] <Pelo> ubuntu_noob,  right click the bottom pannel and add the appropriate pannel app
[04:58] <h1st0> omeil: apt-get will if you specify the autoremove option.
[04:59] <mjunx> apt-get needs to use "apt-get autoremove", but it sucks
[04:59] <ubuntu_noob> windows won't minimize down the that panel bar anymore
[04:59] <SirOsisOfTheLive> not sure i get the sudo thing.  I know what sudo does, but it seems to cause some issues.  meybe i just need to learn the why.  I want to edit my smb.conf so i go to places and browse to it and choose edit with gvim.  naturally i cannot save because i am not root.  this seems very cumbersome.  do i have to sudo chmod each file i want to edit then fix it afterwards ??
[04:59] <ubuntu_noob> unless I press alt-tab to bring it back
[04:59] <Pelo> ubuntu_noob,  it's a pannel app that does that , you need to add it to the pannel again
[04:59] <jrib> SirOsisOfTheLive: no, use sudo to open your editor.  User gksudo  if it is a gui app
[04:59] <jetscreamer> sudo gedit smb.conf
[04:59] <omeil> Yea i used that auto remove before :), but me's gonna use aptitude from now on
[04:59] <h1st0> SirOsisOfTheLive: you could just open a terminal and gksu gvim nameoffile and then you are editing it as sudo
[04:59] <jetscreamer> from an xterm
[05:00] <ubuntu_noob> I did add a new bar but it just doesn't minimize down that specific bar anymore
[05:00] <h1st0> SirOsisOfTheLive: rather than changing permissions.
[05:00] <Stormx2> !sudo | SirOsisOfTheLive
[05:00] <omeil> does anyone here have gambas installed?
[05:00] <ubotu> SirOsisOfTheLive: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:00] <Pelo> ubuntu_noob, ... you need to add the applet to the pannel
[05:00] <Enverex> Is anyone here using a Radeon 9000? 2D rendering performance is almost unbearable and I'd like to find out if that's normal with the OpenSource drivers :/
[05:01] <SirOsisOfTheLive> jrib:  i was in the places menu, not the terminal server.  how do i do a sudo gksudo?   I just right click on the file in the interface and only have 3 editor choices?
[05:01] <Stormx2> SirOsisOfTheLive: ...
[05:01] <Stormx2> SirOsisOfTheLive: Read this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:01] <atoponce> SirOsisOfTheLive: not 'sudo gksudo' just 'gksudo'
[05:01] <Stormx2> SirOsisOfTheLive: It'll explain it.
[05:01] <ubuntu_noob> which applet does the work I wanted to ?
[05:01] <bobbyd> Does anyone here have ubuntu working on a apple tower G5? I just get a white screen or command prompt when I boot the 6.10 ppc livecd. This G5 doesn't have a harddisk at the moment thought :) maybe that's the problem...

[05:02] <atoponce> doublehp: yes?
[05:02] <Pelo> ubuntu_noob,  there is one called window list or something similar
[05:02] <racarter_> is there any gui for updating my firewall settings in ubuntu?
[05:02] <h1st0> SirOsisOfTheLive: or gksu  which is the same as gksudo just less characters to use.
[05:02] <Stormx2> racarter_: firestarter ?
[05:02] <doublehp> atoponce: I am gonna have a chat with the but before bothering any human*
[05:02] <atoponce> doublehp: ok...

[05:05] <ubuntu_noob> Pelo, thanks for your help...
[05:05] <atoponce> !win32
[05:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about win32 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:05] <Pelo> ubuntu_noob,  got it fixed ?
[05:05] <atoponce> bah
[05:05] <atoponce> doublehp: you need to enable the multiverse repo
[05:05] <ubuntu_noob> not really the way I wanted it
[05:05] <Doug52392> How do I play .WMV video files in Ubuntu?
[05:05] <doublehp> atoponce: lol , lets see ...

[05:06] <doublehp> atoponce: ah , ok, I see. thx
[05:06] <atoponce> doublehp: np
[05:06] <bulmer> anyone got freeNX working? can you share tips of how you got it working?
[05:06] <ubuntu_noob> but yeah it shows a list of running programs
[05:06] <ubuntu_noob> so I guess I am good to go haha

[05:11] <Remo_A> libmagick9 conflicts with imagemagick (<= 5:6.0.1.2-1)  <-- how can I solve that?
[05:11] <Remo_A> while installing imagemagick_6.3.3-1_i386.deb
[05:11] <Remo_A> of course
[05:11] <omptiger> Remo_A: is this just from a deb or through apt?
[05:12] <edgard_> atoponce : 100% loss
[05:12] <Remo_A> omptiger:  from a deb i created with checkinstall out of the source
[05:12] <atoponce> edgard_: then it sounds like a networking issue. can you ping other computers on your network?
[05:12] <ubuntu_noob> hello again, How do I configure panel font color ?
[05:12] <omptiger> Remo_A: is libmagick9 from source too?
[05:12] <hakanw> what's the default account and password for the mysql db in ubuntu server's LAMP setup?
[05:13] <hakanw> I cannot access it.
[05:13] <Remo_A> omptiger: i assume, yes
[05:13] <hakanw> although it's up and running
[05:13] <Arbosis> does anyone knows what to do with "cannot allocate resource region 2 of decive 0000:05:00:0 before loading the gui ??  :S
[05:13] <edgard_> atoponce : i can open pages like google but not yahoo it does not load full
[05:13] <jrib> hakanw: mysql -u root    doesn't work?  I don't know about how the server sets it up, but that works on a normal install
[05:13] <atoponce> edgard_: so, you can browse other aspects of the web, just not yahoo specifically?
[05:13] <Doug52392> After I install the w32codecs, what program do I use to watch WMV videos?
[05:14] <omptiger> Remo_A: basically, libmagick is a different version from imagemagick, so try building the exact same version from source or apt-get it
[05:14] <Remo_A> omptiger: I uninstalled all previous imagemagick installations before trying to install that deb
[05:14] <atoponce> edgard_: do you have any filters in place, either in your router or ubuntu, that would be blocking yahoo?
[05:14] <hakanw> jrib: hakan@gunnar:/var/www/phpmyadmin$ mysql -u root
[05:14] <hakanw> ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[05:14] <atoponce> edgard_: maybe a proxy?
[05:14] <jrib> hakanw: did you try using the root password?
[05:14] <Remo_A> omptiger: apt-getting is not possible, the version in efty edge is way too old
[05:14] <hakanw> jrib: well, what is it - that's my question ? :)
[05:15] <tts> guys when grub loads i get this Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
[05:15] <omptiger> Remo_A: kk
[05:15] <hakanw> jrib: oh
[05:15] <jrib> hakanw: oh, I thought server setup a root account.  Maybe someone else knows
[05:15] <hakanw> you mean that root :)
[05:15] <edgard_> atoponce :  when i check the error console there are many warnings
[05:15] <Remo_A> omptiger: ok, so it's weird, that they put an unfitting version of of the lib into that source
[05:15] <omptiger> Remo_A: try removing libmagick again and building the newest version from source, don't know what else to say
[05:15] <atoponce> edgard_: what browser are you using? firefox?
[05:15] <edgard_> atoponce : ya
[05:15] <dcordes> !grub
[05:15] <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
[05:15] <hakanw> hmm, I thought ubuntu preferred sudo over root
[05:15] <Remo_A> omptiger: i will
[05:16] <hakanw> so I'm not sure that a root account is setup by default
[05:16] <omptiger> hakanw: there is one, but has a random password (I think)
[05:16] <hakanw> omptiger: um, so at what point does one get that password? :/
[05:16] <hakanw> I've never seen it in the year I've been running this server, afaik
[05:17] <jrib> hakanw: if you didn't setup a root account during the install, then I guess not
[05:17] <Doug52392> After installing the w32codecs, what program do I use to play .WMV files?
[05:17] <Shaba1> The_Coder you still here
[05:17] <bulmer> hakanw: anytime
[05:17] <omptiger> hakanw: make one yourself: sudo passwd root
[05:17] <doublehp> atoponce: lynx&cli: lynx reports SSL problems on the wiki; searching w32, i got 0 result
[05:17] <hakanw> omptiger: ah, of course. thanks
[05:17] <jrib> hakanw: that won't change what's set for mysql though...
[05:17] <atoponce> edgard_: have you tried another browser?
[05:18] <omptiger> hakanw: oh... whoops.   I thought you were talking about just logging into the regular root account, not sql
[05:18] <edgard_> atoponce : ya opera same problem
[05:18] <Pelo> Doug52392,  try vlc or mplayer,  or better yet,  install totem-xine , better then totem gstreamer in my opinion
[05:18] <hakanw> omptiger: well I'm talking about mysql and what the passwd is for the root account
[05:18] <hakanw> so, what now? can I clobber that somehow?
[05:19] <omptiger> omptiger: have you tried no password?
[05:19] <mEck0> when I run "sudo freshclam", I got the message "WARNING: Can't get information about user clamav", whats wrong?
[05:19] <jetscreamer> mysql's root pw is blank by default iirc
[05:19] <jrib> hakanw: the mysql docs have a page on recovering it
[05:19] <Shaba1> The_Coder you still here
[05:20] <Shaba1> I think I missed it in the scrool
[05:20] <atoponce> edgard_: i don't know what to tell you. i can pull it up fine here. it's got to be a proxy issue or some sort of filter in place on your machine
[05:20] <omptiger> hakanw: have you tried setting a new password?
[05:20] <hakanw> omptiger: mysqladmin -u root oldpasswd newpasswd ?
[05:21] <tts> Error 21: Selected disk does not exist ???
[05:21] <tts> what dose it mean ?
[05:21] <edgard_> atoponce : i have also a pc runing windows and the page load without problem

[05:24] <tts> is it safe to install grun on (sda3) ?
[05:24] <kbrooks> Shaba1, but that's not "freeware" or "shareware". it's free as in speech.
[05:24] <tts> i have windows on sda1
[05:24] <kbrooks> Shaba1, yes

[05:25] <ubotu> Announcement from my owner (Seveas): ubotu will be offline for maintenance

[05:26] <omptiger> hakanw: try mysql -u root password newpassword  don't replace password with anything else

[05:26] <tts> kbrooks:i see

[05:41] <tts> ikonia:yeh it must be that
[05:41] <tts> ikonia: what can i do
[05:41] <don_j> maybe I could just say chmod a-x /etc/init.d/ssh then
[05:42] <atoponce> alucard_: what sliders aren't having an effect?
[05:42] <alucard_> realplayer
[05:42] <whonicca> I'm having a problem with suspend, it works on windows perfectly but under edgy it does not come back from suspend mode, I get the following when trying to come back from suspend, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12011/
[05:42] <ikonia> tts: how many harddisks (both ide and sata) installed
[05:42] <whonicca> can someone please help me out or lead me the right way
[05:42] <cables> whonicca, do you have NVidia drivers installed?
[05:42] <whonicca> cables, yes
[05:42] <Oritemis> good afternoon guys
[05:42] <atoponce> alucard_: oh, i don't have realplayer installed. i thought you were referring to the volume control sliders for gnome
[05:42] <cables> whonicca, they break suspend... I'll help you with a workaround.
[05:42] <don_j> but I think the ubuntu got a better solution
[05:42] <whonicca> =)
[05:42] <alucard_> well that one doesnt work either atoponce
[05:43] <whonicca> cables, ok =)
[05:43] <eltech> ubuntu making the frontpage of digg every hour :-)
[05:43] <atoponce> alucard_: are you getting sound at all, or is everything mute?
[05:43] <cables> whonicca, I noticed that my comp ran hot after resuming, I don't think it's because of this fix though... and its easily reversible.
[05:43] <alucard_> nah sound is fine
[05:43] <Jenn> how do I restore a backup that I had made using this command? sudo cp /etc/X11/gdm/Init/Default /etc/X11/gdm/Init/Default_backup
[05:43] <alucard_> i just cant change it through the gnome slider or through realplayer
[05:43] <don_j> am I ignored on purpose?
[05:43] <ikonia> Jenn: copy default_backup back over the top
[05:43] <atoponce> alucard_: so what sliders, in the gnome volume control, aren't affecting the sound?
[05:43] <whonicca> cables, how can i check for my computer running hot after resuming
[05:43] <kbrooks> ikonia, what do i configure?
[05:44] <theblue> Hi all, I'm running Edgy, and I'd know I can go up to 1280x1024 on this video card, but the applet won't let me, is there a way to force it?

[05:58] <whonicca> cables, question about the menu.lst file, # arent commens?
[05:58] <whonicca> comments*
[05:58] <cables> whonicca, they are comments
[05:58] <ikonia> whonicca: yes they are
[05:58] <cables> whonicca, grub only cares about the uncommented bit
[05:58] <cables> whonicca, grub-update reads the comments and transfers those settings to the uncommented kernel lines that grub reads
[05:58] <whonicca> so what different would it make with the agp=off we added to the commnted line
[05:58] <whonicca> oh
[05:58] <cables> whonicca, I mean update-grub
[05:59] <whonicca> ok =)
[05:59] <cables> mikebeecham, it'll install any themes that are in that theme file. You can go to Theme Details to customize which themes you want for which elements.

I don't have any programs (like GAIM or anything) set to open when I log in so it's not something like that. The machine is an A64 3800+ X2 with 2GB of RAM so it shouldn't be slow either. Any ideas?

[06:03] <kbrooks__> I have a problem. Samba is not working.

[06:04] <mikebeecham> CABLES, I have now managed to install the Metacity themes, although it has not done what the screenshot showed it would do.  It has not changed the taskbar at all, all it has done is rounded some corners and changed to active title bar to another colour

[06:05] <cables> mikebeecham, you're not supposed to extract the file, you're supposed to drag the compressed file in.
[06:05] <ikonia> kbrooks__: there is a flag in the samba config called "domain" make sure that matches your machines
[06:06] <kbrooks__> ikonia, all of my machines?
[06:06] <mikebeecham> Cables, I have tried this with a couple of themes from Gnome-Look.org.   It seems to present the same problem, the colours will change, but it will not change the taskbar, where it shows Applications, Places, and System
[06:06] <ikonia> kbrooks__: any that want to use it, yes
[06:06] <tts> ikonia: setup (hd0)
[06:06] <kbrooks__> ikonia, well, ok i'll fix on my lappy. thanks
[06:06] <ikonia> tts: when you type "setup (hd0)" you get error cannot mount partition
[06:06] <tts> yes
[06:07] <cables> mikebeecham, I have no idea
[06:07] <ikonia> tts: try this "root (hd0,2)"
[06:07] <fir3> rob_: did you try this? boot up in recovery mode, log in, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf , replace "fglrx" with "radeon"
[06:07] <mbdl> hello does anyone know why the kernal for ubuntu edgy... doest shut down mycomputer when i gotoshut down the computer does everything but when it gos to shut down the fan rev's i have a hp pavilion a620n computer
[06:07] <LjL> HornyHouseWife: would you mind changing your nickname? people could find it a little less "family friendly" than is considered appropriate for this channel
[06:07] <tts> ikonia:worked
[06:07] <rob_> fir3: i was under the impression that fglrx had to be listed as the driver to use?
[06:07] <mikebeecham> Thank you for your help anyway cables.  Would anyone else be able to guide me in all ways Metacity themes?  Maybe a PM conversation to help me on my way please?
[06:08] <ikonia> tts: then setup (hd0)
[06:08] <tts> yes i have done that
[06:08] <ikonia> tts: thats great, the problem was the extended partition being seen as a "partition"
[06:08] <fir3> rob_: if fglrx fails and you just want to get the gui back, you should switch back to the old driver
[06:08] <rob_> fir3: ok i have done that in the past, but it still doesnt help me setup ati
[06:09] <tts> ikonia:very well done ,should i let you know it it worked after a reboot ?
[06:09] <mbdl> es anyone know why the kernal for ubuntu edgy... doest shut down mycomputer when i gotoshut down the computer does everything but when it gos to shut down the fan rev's i have a hp pavilion a620n computer
[06:09] <ikonia> tts: up to you, but it should work
[06:09] <kbrooks__> HornyHouseWife, I agree that you should change your nickname.
[06:09] <rob_> fir3: also this installation is done now, i need to reboot in a min, do you know how i can get this setup without a hitch?
[06:09] <tts> ok thanks bro
[06:09] <fir3> rob_: then you should watch for errors in the xserver log file:  cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:09] <jetscreamer> i dunno i kinda like the idea of that nick... but maybe not appropo
[06:09] <rob_> cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:10] <rob_> oops lol
[06:10] <mikebeecham> HI there, can anyone help me in trying to sort out a metacity theme problem?  I cannot get any Metacity theme to work properly as per the various screenshots
[06:10] <fir3> rob_: so you are doing a fresh ubuntu install atm?
[06:10] <sacater> HornyHouseWife: please change your nick
[06:10] <ikonia> mikebeecham: try in #ubuntu-effects
[06:10] <rob_> yes fir3 it is done
[06:10] <mikebeecham> thank you Ikonia
[06:10] <nn531> !ipod

[06:11] <sacater> kekos: yes
[06:11] <ikonia> kekos: ask it
[06:11] <rob_> fir3: ive had it working in the past though
[06:11] <sacater> kekos: you dont need to ask to ask
[06:12] <kekos> I have installed my wireless network card

[06:12] <sacater> kekos: cool
[06:12] <mbdl> HELP my does the ubuntu Kernal rev my fan when i shut down instead of booting off
[06:12] <kekos> but now I'm trying to connect
[06:12] <fir3> rob_: they purged support for some older radeon cards
[06:12] <kekos> to my bthub
[06:12] <rob_> fir3: that doesnt sound good
[06:12] <sacater> mbdl: please go to #ubuntu-bugs

[06:13] <kekos> I'm using

[06:13] <rob_> fir3: any reason why im always stuck in 800x600 unless i reconfigure x?
[06:13] <oliver2> (hmm... #ubuntu-bugs sounds a better place for my questions - thanks / bye :-)
[06:13] <fir3> rob_: maybe the standard driver doesn't support higher resolutions
[06:13] <kekos> that the signal strenght is out of range
[06:13] <rob_> !800x600
[06:13] <ubotwo> Sorry, I know nothing about that - try http://help.ubuntu.com/community/

[06:14] <thomerz> hi, my kernel_image deb allways has about 250mb, any hints what i am doing wrong? there are about 600mb of modules, it seems that everything is compiled as module that is not in the kernel
[06:14] <kekos> thanks
[06:14] <sacater> kekos: tis no problem my newbie friend
[06:15] <jetscreamer> thomerz: what make-kpkg command did you use
[06:15] <izaak> hi there, i'm new to ubuntu but know my way around linux distributions - i'd like to install feisty beta, i'm just wondering if i follow the package updates will it eventually be at the same place as installing feisty when it's stable?
[06:15] <jetscreamer> thomerz: lose some modules when you do make menuconfig
[06:15] <erUSUL> izaak: it will
[06:15] <osiris_> Afternoon all
[06:15] <thomerz> jetscreamer: make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers
[06:15] <izaak> erUSUL: then i can live with a few months of bugs :)
[06:15] <sacater> izaak: if you install any version of ubuntu, in theory it will update and update so yes
[06:15] <kane`> I have my resolution set to 1280 x 1204 @ 75 Hz, but when running the device manager database it says that its only running at 60 Hz
[06:15] <bones> hi
[06:15] <kekos> !wireless
[06:15] <ubotwo> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:16] <thomerz> jetscreamer: but i'm using the config file from the standard ubuntu kernel, shouldn't it be about the same size? i'm only applying 2 patches
[06:16] <osiris_> Anyone have a G15 keyboard here?
[06:16] <Arafel> I have a question, can i install ubuntu onto a usbharddrive?
[06:16] <bones> what is that panel where the icons bounce around
[06:16] <whonicca> 1st time i click on System -> Quit, http://www.zshare.net/image/img_0172-jpg-n39.html, 2nd time i click on System -> Quit, http://www.zshare.net/image/img_0174-jpg.html
[06:16] <erUSUL> izaak: *one* month ;)
[06:16] <whonicca> does this happen to anyone else?
[06:16] <izaak> sacater: but i have a *little* bit of experience iwth ubuntu, and the upgrade process between different versions is not as smooth as in theory...
[06:16] <jetscreamer> thomerz: i don't know enough about ubuntu kernel packages to say, sorry
[06:16] <sacater> izaak: yes that is true
[06:17] <Suurorca> the more you tinker, the harder it gets :P
[06:17] <sacater> izaak: i dont know whether it will upgrade you through versions, or take you straight to feisty
[06:17] <iD_J> could somebody tell me how to install firefox 2.0 on ubuntu 6.06 please?
[06:17] <erUSUL> izaak: i have upgradede without problems all the way warty beta>warty>hoary>breezy>edgy....
[06:19] <vetsin> Anyone got any idea how to pull of ip masqurading
[06:19] <adx2> what would be the fstab entry for sharing the itunes lib from os x?
[06:19] <whonicca> anyway to take a screen still with mplayer?
[06:19] <izaak> erUSUL: that's impressive
[06:20] <mc44> How can i get mounted partition to appear in the Places/Computer menu
[06:20] <vetsin> probably throw it into fstab mc44
[06:20] <tts> i got error 21 : disk dose not exist
[06:21] <johnficca> Q does having a lot of free hard drive space in linux effect your speed like it does in windows, and do I need to derangement ?
[06:21] <mc44> vetsin: they are already mounted through fstab and are availiable in /media/sda1 etc, is there something in fstab to get them into the PLaces menu?
[06:21] <vetsin> Anyone know any good ubuntu repositories?
[06:21] <vetsin> nope mc44
[06:22] <vetsin> mc44 maybe you just need to edit your gnome menu file
[06:22] <kbrooks__> testing.
[06:22] <kbrooks__> !test
[06:22] <tts> please help me with grub
[06:22] <void^> johnficca: it's usually a good idea to keep about 15% of a disk free to avoid performance issues
[06:23] <ikonia> tts: whats up
[06:23] <quaal> trying to create a raid-1 partition.. anyone know where i'm going wrong here? http://pastebin.ca/409320
[06:23] <tts>  ikonia: i got error 21 selected disk dose not exist
[06:23] <kakado> johnficca: also linux filesystems get fragmented, specially if they are full
[06:23] <nununi> I miss header file net/if_dl.h, while compiling something. Which pachakge should I install? Thanks a log.
[06:23] <ikonia> quaal: you've not got the raid support kernel modules
[06:23] <quaal> ikonia, hmm
[06:24] <quaal> ikonia, how do i get them
[06:24] <vetsin> kakado i thought that was minimilized if they were journalized
[06:24] <ikonia> tts: ughhhhh is that when you select "ubuntu" to boot in grub
[06:24] <johnficca> how do I defagment linux hard drives
[06:24] <ikonia> quaal: modprbe them
[06:24] <ikonia> modprobe
[06:24] <quaal> ikonia, i did
[06:24] <_MrAndersson> Is anyone here good at cofiguring wireless cards in ubuntu 6.06? I upgraded to kernel 2.6.15-28 and my acx111 based card stopped working, but in 2.6.15-26 it works fine
[06:24] <tts> ikonia: yeh
[06:24] <ikonia> quaal: why did you make a dir called /dev/md0
[06:24] <kakado> vetsin: no it has nothing to do with jounals
[06:25] <ikonia> tts: please pastebin your menu.lst file
[06:25] <quaal> ikonia, because i dont know how to make it work
[06:25] <vetsin> i always use dmraid for my raid drives...
[06:25] <quaal> ikonia, you're saying md0 should just be there?
[06:25] <tts> ikonia:  where is it located please ?
[06:25] <Enverex> When I log in (to Gnome) it seems to take ages (40 seconds or so) to actually finish loading my desktop. I don't have any programs (like GAIM or anything) set to open when I log in so it's not something like that. The machine is an A64 3800+ X2 with 2GB of RAM so it shouldn't be slow either. Any ideas?
[06:25] <cables> whonicca, are you here?
[06:25] <tts> ikonia: im on live cd
[06:25] <ikonia> quaal: md0 is created by udev if a raid device is detected
[06:25] <whonicca> cables, yeah
[06:25] <kakado> johnficca: to defrag, you have to create the file again, then the filesystem will try to write it without fragments
[06:25] <pike_> johnficca: not necessary ext3 handles it for you
[06:25] <ikonia> tts: its on /boot/grub on your REAL system - not the live cd, so you'll need to mount your hard disk
[06:25] <vetsin> Anyone know any good 3rd party ubuntu repositories?
[06:25] <cables> whonicca, how'd it work out?
[06:26] <LjL> !easysource > vetsin    (vetsin, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:26] <vetsin> =o
[06:26] <tts> ok i will mount it, hi LjL:
[06:26] <whonicca> cables, it worked when i suspended and resumed from the gdm screen, but while im in gnome, the screen just stayed black with the mouse pointer only displaying
[06:26] <kakado> johnficca: there are some tools for ext3 to analyse how fragmented files are
[06:27] <cables> whonicca, it didn't pop up a password dialog?
[06:27] <whonicca> cables, no
[06:27] <kakado> johnficca: that said, it is not as big a problem as with windows
[06:27] <johnficca> pike_: so I don't need to defragment then?
[06:27] <whonicca> anyone know how to take a screenshot from within mplayer, i guess a screen still
[06:28] <cables> whonicca, that's weird, but I think it's unrelated to the nVidia thing... you might want to try temporarily replacing the "nvidia" driver with the "nv" driver in xorg.conf to see if the problem persists when you're not using the nvidia driver
[06:28] <quaal> ikonia, what do i modprobe to enable this udev ?
[06:28] <johnficca> what are the tools I need
[06:28] <whonicca> cables will do
[06:28] <Gary[ubuntu] > is there an ubuntu ppc channel?
[06:28] <Suurorca> whonicca: the printscreen-butto should work if you use xv video-out. mplayer also has internal screenshot. you enable it with with mplayer -vf screenshot and then take screenshots with s-button.
[06:28] <ikonia> quaal: can't remember hte module names as I never build them as modules due to potential initrd isues on pre-loading
[06:29] <ikonia> quaal: search the /lib/$kernel/modules dirs for them
[06:29] <ikonia> quaal: they should be easy to spot
[06:29] <lilrayray> hi all, is it safe to install kde-desktop on ubuntu (feisty)
[06:29] <ikonia> lilrayray: fesity is beta
[06:29] <ikonia> lilrayray: therefore nothing is safe
[06:29] <lilrayray> ikonia: haha, peen perfect so far
[06:29] <ikonia> lilrayray: then why ask ?
[06:29] <tuna> I am thinking of buying an iMac, but I wonder if anyone knows how well linux would work on it. I have used fedora for a couple of years, bu t I don't want to spend a lot of time configuring stuff.
[06:29] <adx2> why do i get that a line in fstab is bad?
[06:29] <tts> ikonia: http://pastebin.ca/409335
[06:29] <ikonia> tuna works well
[06:30] <lilrayray> ikonia, just curious whether or not installing kde will mess anything up
[06:30] <cables> tuna, you may have some trouble  with wi-fi on the iMac, but there's a guide somewhere
[06:30] <ikonia> tts: look at your menulist
[06:30] <lilrayray> I have had problems with it before
[06:30] <ikonia> lilrayray: its not stable
[06:30] <cables> ikonia, how is kde not stable?
[06:30] <tuna> ikonia: does all hw work, like the optical audio and the camera?
[06:30] <whonicca> cables, http://www.zshare.net/image/shot0002-png.html
[06:30] <ikonia> tts: cange root (hd2,2) to (hd0,3) on each of the ubuntu commented line
[06:30] <ikonia> tuna I believe so
[06:30] <vetsin> Is there any GUI for editing the firewall?
[06:31] <MrEgg964> Hi :) I'm going to do a fresh install of Feisty, as I've been experimenting and messing around with Edgy as a new comer. I've managed to set it up pretty much the way I like, though, and I'd like to keep my settings if that's possible (i.e. : my printers, my network mounts, etc.). If I backup /home and restore it after Feisty is installed, will I get my settings back ?
[06:31] <tts> ikonia:ok
[06:31] <cables> !firewall | vetsin
[06:31] <ubotu> vetsin: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[06:31] <vetsin> Thanks much
[06:31] <osiris_> anyone use a logitech g15 in ubuntu ?
[06:31] <osiris_> and 8800GTX?
[06:31] <cables> whonicca, i don't know why that would happen
[06:32] <lilrayray> ikonia: do you mean installing kde on a non kubuntu distro is unstable, or kde itself is unstable?
[06:32] <cables> lilrayray, sudo aptitude kubuntu-desktop will install everything Kubuntu has... I'd use that over just installing the kde packages.
[06:32] <Lastent> hi, does anyone have a HP Pavilion DV6200 CTO?
[06:32] <whonicca> cables, thats when i did it via gdm and it resumed ok, within gnome i got this -> http://www.zshare.net/image/screenshot-png-139.html
[06:32] <ikonia> lilrayray: I mean fesity and its packages are in beta
[06:32] <tuna> ikonia: ok, thanks. Do you know where I can read some more about linux on iMac?
[06:33] <cables> whonicca, whonicca yeah, I'm not sure...
[06:33] <ikonia> tuna ubuntu.com has info
[06:33] <whonicca> thanks though =)
[06:33] <pike_> johnficca: no. though there are manual tools to do it.
[06:33] <whonicca> is it safe to leave those options on?
[06:33] <cables> whonicca, you know how to revert to your previous setup, right?
[06:33] <cables> whonicca, which ones?
[06:34] <whonicca> the ones we changed
[06:34] <kakado> vetsin: filefrag in E2fsprogs report fragmentation of files, but you have to combine with other tools, like 'find' to analyse
[06:34] <tts> ikonia: Microsoft Windows XP Professional
[06:34] <tts> root		(hd2,0)
[06:34] <cables> whonicca, yep, unless you notice any other problems.
[06:34] <whonicca> and yes i know how to revert them
[06:34] <whonicca> ok thanks
[06:34] <tts> ikonia:change that too
[06:34] <cables> whonicca, sorry it didn't work out for you
[06:34] <tuna> didn't find much at ubuntu.com actually...
[06:34] <whonicca> hopefully it works in feisty
[06:34] <ikonia> tts: no leave that alone for the moment
[06:34] <lilrayray> does anyone know if you can make panels (in gnome) stay below windows?
[06:35] <whonicca> cables, another issue, maybe uve noticed it, 1st time i click on System -> Quit, http://www.zshare.net/image/img_0172-jpg-n39.html, 2nd time i click on System -> Quit, http://www.zshare.net/image/img_0174-jpg.html
[06:35] <ikonia> tts: windows XP should be (hd0,0)
[06:35] <dolemite0> if i install fiesty beta and the final comes out will i need to format/reinstall to get the final?
[06:35] <pike_> JohnRobert: this is a good explanation http://geekblog.oneandoneis2.org/index.php/2006/08/17/why_doesn_t_linux_need_defragmenting
[06:35] <cables> whonicca, i've never seen that, sorry
[06:35] <cables> dolemite0, no
[06:35] <cables> dolemite0, have you used Automatix?
[06:35] <clearzen> dolemite0: no, you can simply update
[06:35] <dolemite0> I prefer EasyUbuntu over Automatix
[06:35] <cables> dolemite0, if you have, it may screw things up for you, so you should take a backup
[06:36] <kazim86> hello friends...
[06:36] <clearzen> cables: I always hear people say that. Why would it mess things up?
[06:36] <Whtiger> hello fiends.
[06:36] <cello_rasp> does anyone else find their nvidia card stops drawing after 5-10 minutes?
[06:36] <kazim86> can u suggest me a good IDE for C/C++ ?
[06:36] <cables> clearzen, it's just badly designed and messes with the package management system
[06:36] <main2> can i use the DVD from Feisty as a repos, to update my Edgy?
[06:36] <erichj> kazim86: openLDev
[06:36] <Whtiger> I wouldn't suggest an IDE, but that's just me
[06:36] <cello_rasp> i mean there is no signal unless i move the mouse again, it's like a malicious screensaver
[06:37] <cables> main2, I think you can use the alternate, but I'm not sure...

[06:37] <froyd> did anybody have the module-assistant problem with Envy ?
[06:37] <quaal> anyone know where i'm going wrong trying to create a raid1 array? http://pastebin.ca/409338
[06:37] <marioman> does edgy default install with a firewall or anything?
[06:37] <don_j> Cheers!
[06:37] <cello_rasp> marioman: no. use firestarter
[06:37] <kbrooks__> nearfar, running laptop as a server == evil
[06:37] <cables> main2, you should check me on this, but I think that the regular one doesn't have the upgrade script
[06:37] <erichj> kazim86: i suggested openLDev, i would never suggest eclipse
[06:37] <cables> !firewall | marioman
[06:37] <ubotu> marioman: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).

[06:37] <tts>  ikonia:i have made the changes http://pastebin.ca/409339
[06:37] <tjl30> can i upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10
[06:37] <marioman> actually, I want to not have anything
[06:37] <cables> tjl30, yep

[06:38] <froyd> Does anybody knows where to get module-assistant ? im having this dependency problem installing envy
[06:38] <cello_rasp> iptables is linux firewall. I think you have separate issue.

[06:39] <dolemite0> is there a document you guys recommend to read on dual booting, a google search pulls up so many that offer so many different ways, im just looking to dual boot xp using the ubuntu install CD
[06:39] <clearzen> quaal: are they the same model of drive?
[06:39] <main2> cables, hmmm... i can dload that script as well
[06:39] <adx2> what's the button for the escape char '^] ' ?
[06:40] <cables> main2, read this
[06:40] <mikeg8> dolemite0: if winxp is already installed, just pop in ubuntu cd and follow it's instructions, and it'll work
[06:40] <cables> main2, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades
[06:40] <dolemite0> thanks
[06:40] <mikeg8> np
[06:40] <dolemite0> should i install the new fiesty beta if im new to ubuntu or use the Final 6.10 ?
[06:40] <mikeg8> just don't delete your winxp partition which should be pretty obvious
[06:40] <marioman> can anyone to an nmap on 71.89.40.58 for me please?
[06:40] <cables> main2, you can't download the script
[06:40] <nn531> is feisty worth getting at this stage?
[06:40] <quaal> clearzen, exact same
[06:41] <LjL> dolemite0, if you're relatively new to linux in general and/or APT based distributions, install 6.10, and don't risk messing things up with a beta version
[06:41] <mikeg8> feisty is working well for me without any problems, and it has some addition support for stuff like wireless that makes it worthwhile i thinkk,
[06:41] <cables> mikeg8, nn531, probably not... just wait 19 days :)
[06:41] <cables> or whatever day
[06:41] <cables> *s
[06:41] <nn531> cables, k
[06:41] <cello_rasp> marioman: sudo iptables --list
[06:41] <billy> nn531:  works fine for me, though lots of folks are having bugs.  waiting is probably a good idea.
[06:41] <cables> main2, you can't download the script
[06:41] <pike_> dolemite0: ubuntu is very easy to upgrade if you change your mind later
[06:41] <cables> main2, it depends on other files on the CD
[06:41] <dolemite0> so I can upgrade to the final of fiesty fawn from 6.10 later?
[06:41] <billy> yeah
[06:41] <LjL> dolemite0: yeah
[06:41] <clearzen> quaal: would it make a difference if you put the --raid-devices section before --create?
[06:41] <LjL> !upgrade > dolemite0    (dolemite0, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:41] <dolemite0> Excellent thank you
[06:42] <cables> !pm > tjl30
[06:42] <nn531> cables, billy: how difficult of a switch would it be from edgy ? is the software going to work?
[06:42] <cables> nn531, very easy switch... just don't use automatix
[06:42] <Enverex> When I log in (to Gnome) it seems to take ages (40 seconds or so) to actually finish loading my desktop. I don't have any programs (like GAIM or anything) set to open when I log in so it's not something like that. The machine is an A64 3800+ X2 with 2GB of RAM so it shouldn't be slow either. Any ideas?
[06:42] <nn531> cables, wouldnt dream of it
[06:42] <dolemite0> I wish i would have found this channel before i decided to format and put windows back on after i was gettin frustrated lol
[06:42] <tjl30> ok I get an error when I upgrade
[06:42] <billy> nn531:  depends on your setup.  for me, it was easy as typing a command and waiting an hour or so.
[06:42] <quaal> clearzen, i dont think so i'm copying this command from a guide.
[06:42] <main2> cables: ok grabbing alternate
[06:42] <nn531> billy, awesome
[06:43] <dolemite0> Do you guys prefer Automatix over EasyUbuntu?
[06:43] <kalpik> hi! can i resize my swap partition without disturbing ubuntu? or will i have to install it again?
[06:43] <cables> dolemite0, NOOOO!!!!!!!!
[06:43] <cables> !automatix | dolemite0
[06:43] <pike_> dolemite0: now youve done it :)
[06:43] <ubotu> dolemite0: 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
[06:43] <marioman> what should sudo iptables --list give me as output? I have a chain INPUT (accept), chain FORWARD (accept) and chain OUTPUT (accept)
[06:43] <billy> dolemite0: you won't find much support for either in this room.
[06:43] <sacater> kalpik: i think install
[06:43] <clearzen> quaal: one sec, I'll look into it
[06:43] <cello_rasp> marioman if there is nothing under those headers you have no firewall settings
[06:43] <kalpik> sacater, thanks, i thought so.. :)
[06:43] <sacater> billy: are you the billy who added me on msn
[06:43] <billy> kalpik:  you'll need a GParted LiveCD.
[06:43] <billy> sacater: no.  wasn't me this time.  :)
[06:43] <marioman> ok, then is it possible that my netgear router has a firewall that I don't know about?
[06:43] <cello_rasp> marioman therefore it is not a firewall issue
[06:44] <sacater> billy: hmm
[06:44] <LjL> dolemite0: we prefer not messing up with such ugly scripts. remember, please, that Ubuntu uses APT, which is a very solid package management system that comes from Debian, and which was *intended* to make installing software *easy*. don't pretend to make it even easier by making it harder due to using "magic" scripts that do weird things to the system.
[06:44] <cello_rasp> marioman most likely
[06:44] <LjL> !software > dolemite0    (dolemite0, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:44] <pike_> dolemite0: basically they just automate the commands youll find at wiki.ubuntu or help.ubuntu.com
[06:44] <kalpik> billy, yeah, i can do that wid ubuntu live CD.. the point is would my existing ubuntu boot after resizing the swap?
[06:44] <dolemite0> Ah, understand now
[06:44] <cables> kalpik, Edgy and Dapper have GParted on the LiveCD, no need to download another CD
[06:44] <cello_rasp> marioman look up "port forwarding" + your router model
[06:44] <nn531> billy: is there a way to install feisty but not install all the dumb programs like rythmbox and whatever else there is?
[06:44] <marioman> well I have port forwarding set up
[06:44] <cables> nn531, you can remove them after
[06:45] <billy> kalpik:  just don't resize over used ubuntu partition, should be fine.
[06:45] <nn531> cables, sweet thanks
[06:45] <marioman> I was at portforward.com and know lots, and when I nmap myself it tells me that I have port 80 open, but nobody outside my network seems to see that I have port 80 open
[06:45] <xNinja> hello...how to change my 75hz to 60hz ?
[06:45] <lufis> I don't like nautilus and want to use pcman file manager. But I cannot get it to recognize it as the default file manager no matter what I do. I've right-clicked on a folder in nautilus and tried under the "Open with" tab but it won't let me select the right one. :(
[06:46] <kalpik> billy, cables ill resize my windows ntfs partition to accommodate the swap.. so i guess i should be fine if i dont disturb or move my '/'
[06:46] <cables> lufis, under the Open With tab, hit add and use the custom command for pcman
[06:46] <billy> nn531:  I think the alternate install CD allows advanced installs (picking and choosing which packages you want), but i'd recommend doing that only if you really know what you're doing.  not sure if feisty allows this though.  other alternate installs do.
[06:46] <billy> kalpik: be careful.  you may not be able to boot windows afterward.
[06:46] <lufis> cables: Tried that. Doesn't let me select the right one
[06:46] <fmarquez> i have e solution to bad funtion then sudo command
[06:46] <pike_> xNinja: if you have your monitor manual or can look up the horiz and vert setting on line you can either gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf or sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and change the current ones
[06:46] <kalpik> billy, i know that.. ill not be moving my main windows partition.. its just another drive ;)
[06:46] <ser_o> Hi
[06:46] <fatsheep> hey
[06:47] <marioman> does http://71.89.40.58/ work for anybody besides me?
[06:47] <fatsheep> whatever happened to System>Administration>Disks ?
[06:47] <MrKimm> Hello everyone, can anyone help me with pypanel? I get the error "ImportError: No module named ppmodule" when I try to run it
[06:47] <billy> kalpik:  oh i see.  you have a separate ntfs partition.
[06:47] <ser_o> I want to recompile my kernel.. after adding a patch.. Which step goes first the patch or make oldconfig ?
[06:47] <fatsheep> is there a new program for mounting partitions and such now?
[06:47] <kalpik> billy, yes :)
[06:47] <xNinja> pike_,  i di change this but still not work HorizSync       28.0 - 51.0
[06:47] <xNinja>     VertRefresh     43.0 - 60.0
[06:48] <pike_> xNinja: and you restarted X server with 'alt-ctrl-bkspace' or whatever?

[06:48] <billy> kalpik:  should work like a charm.  :D  why are you wanting to resize your swap?
[06:48] <kalpik> marioman, no.. it does not open here
[06:48] <budman> help :-)
[06:48] <marioman> ok, thanks
[06:48] <cello_rasp> marioman: i don't think your webserver is configured correctly
[06:48] <billy> watup budman?
[06:48] <pike_> xNinja: what graphic card do you have?
[06:48] <hanvanmarle> The compiler complains not to have /lib/modules/kernel/build, I did sudo apt-get build-essentials. Anybody an idea?
[06:48] <budman> My super troopers video has no sound in VLC or the media player.
[06:48] <marioman> by webserver you mean apache?
[06:48] <budman> :-)
[06:48] <delirus> I tried Ubuntu 64-bit about a year and a half ago, but the repositories were just missing a lot of software that should have been available.  I'm thinking about trying it again, but are the repositories for the 64-bit version still like that?
[06:48] <kalpik> billy, i have 1GB of ram.. and a 512 MB swap.. so i cannot hibernate :(
[06:49] <budman> I have the easy ubuntu etc.. installed. the video also is very iffy .
[06:49] <fmarquez> i have e solution to bad funtion then sudo command
[06:49] <cello_rasp> marioman: #apache
[06:49] <beatrice> hi how would I enable DRI on a different display?
[06:49] <ryanpg> does anyone know if there's software out there that allows me to create shockwave/flash animations under linux (I don't want to run winde)
[06:49] <billy> kalpik:  oh i see.  that's a pretty good reason, I'd say.  :)
[06:49] <budman> just for high quality avis.
[06:49] <marioman> I was already there but they couldn't help
[06:49] <ryanpg> s/winde/wine
[06:49] <cello_rasp> marioman: there you can learn what is wrong
[06:49] <xNinja> pike_, nvidia 7600 512mb
[06:49] <pike_> xNinja: have you installed nvidia drivers yet?
[06:49] <beatrice> i get this error Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":3.0".
[06:50] <kalpik> billy, so would i be able to hibernate after increasing the swap, or would i have to configure something else?
[06:50] <marioman> thanks for the help, but I'm going to talk to my ISP and get help from them.
[06:50] <Smuggle> Hello all!!
[06:50] <clearzen> quaal: I looked it over and the syntax appears to be correct. --chunk=64 isn't needed since that is default anyway. What kind of drives are you using?
[06:50] <xNinja> pike_, yes i did...but maybe not correctly :P
[06:50] <Helmi> guys - what is a good editor for language files (gettext .po, .pot) under ubuntu?
[06:50] <beatrice> dri is enabled on :0 how do i enable it for :3?
[06:50] <Smuggle> Whats the "name" of the nee Ubuntu??
[06:50] <Smuggle> new*
[06:50] <beatrice> i'm using Xnest
[06:50] <pike_> xNinja: hmm do you get that nice nvidia spash screen when you boot up and login appears?
[06:50] <fmarquez> vi
[06:51] <xNinja> pike_, no
[06:51] <billy> kalpik:  i don't know.  never worked with that issue before.  I don't use hibernate.
[06:51] <budman> whats a good IRC client for my ubuntu?
[06:51] <xNinja> budman, xchat
[06:51] <kalpik> billy, neither do i.. but just for the heck of it :P anyway, thanks for your help :) ill try it out!
[06:51] <Helmi> budman: irssi  - you could also take xchat
[06:51] <sacater> budman: na, get irssi
[06:51] <delirus> heh..
[06:51] <sacater> budman: xchat or xchat-gnome are easier to use though
[06:51] <billy> kalpik: right on.  let me know if it works for you.  :)
[06:52] <delirus> irssi just totally rocks

[06:52] <fmarquez> you can use sudo if your have the hostname configurate
[06:52] <delirus> So there are no Ubuntu 64-bit users awake right now? :(
[06:52] <epi> Guys, I just finished the whole "nvidia driver" install thing. Im not totally sure it worked though, dragging windows around still seems sluggish.
[06:53] <LookTJ> Hey all
[06:53] <epi> I was using 64bit last night delirus.
[06:53] <xNinja> pike_, i have ubuntu but installed kde and now under kde
[06:53] <epi> Is there any way to check if the drivers installed correctly?
[06:53] <quaal> clearzen, these ones http://pastebin.ca/409355
[06:53] <pike_> xNinja: well last command then 'sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart'
[06:53] <kalpik> epi, glxinfo | grep version
[06:53] <xNinja> epi, lspci
[06:53] <delirus> epi:  are the repositories for the 64 bit version still bare?
[06:53] <boby> hello all :) i have a question, i want to ask you if you know a shell command that displays all the ips in a local area network
[06:54] <fmarquez> you can use sudo if your have the hostname configurate
[06:54] <hanzo> Hallo, anybody familiar with USplash Settings?
[06:54] <pike_> xNinja: to be honest i dont use the ubuntu package for nvidia i just use the nvidia installer from their website but the package should work
[06:54] <epi> Delirus, I got zero compatiblity with anything last night on 64bit.
[06:54] <delirus> yick
[06:54] <epi> Even on flash I had to force firefox onto 32bit architecture.
[06:54] <Helmi> anyone does language file translation (gettext format - po/pot files) - which editor do you use?
[06:55] <LjL> !hostname | fmarquez
[06:55] <ubotwo> fmarquez: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab
[06:55] <epi> Kalpik, it says it cant find extension when I key in that code.
[06:55] <delirus> epi: yeah, there's no 64 bit firefox to my knowledge
[06:55] <polilla> hola
[06:55] <polilla> hola
[06:55] <LjL> fmarquez: if you're broken your hostname, use Recovery Mode to fix it
[06:55] <delirus> epi: er...... flash
[06:55] <boby> hello all :) i have a question, i want to ask you if you know a shell command that displays all the ips in a local area network
[06:55] <kalpik> epi, then you dont have the nvidia driver installed properly..
[06:55] <void^> i'm happy with 64bit support, getting flash to work with nspluginwrapper was a mess though
[06:55] <kazim86> i cant find a source or .deb package for dapper drake for Code::Blocks

[06:56] <kalpik> epi, what all did you try?
[06:56] <delirus> I think I'll take a gamble on 64-but Ubuntu. bUt if it doesn't work out I'll have to put aside three days to set up gentoo again >_>
[06:56] <boby> anybody answer my question?
[06:56] <boby> hello all :) i have a question, i want to ask you if you know a shell command that displays all the ips in a local area network
[06:56] <fmarquez> thank i'm solve my problen to edit /etc/hostname
[06:56] <kalpik> delirus, ubuntu 64 bit is just not ready yet IMHO..
[06:56] <delirus> bleh....
[06:56] <epi> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common
[06:56] <epi> sudo nvidia-xconfig
[06:56] <fmarquez> yes swap file, if you use vi
[06:56] <delirus> kalpik:  in what ways?
[06:57] <sacater> boby: i know one that will show all the IPs that your computer is connect/listening to
[06:57] <kalpik> delirus, java, flash, w32codecs..
[06:57] <mike1234> hi guys when you install a package through the package manager and it automatically installs the dependencies for you.  Is there a way to do that in reverse ie when you un install that application
[06:57] <epi> 64 bit isnt worth the headaches mate, unless your server-side.
[06:57] <boby> can you tell it to me?
[06:57] <boby> sacater, CAN YOU TELL IT TO ME :)
[06:57] <sacater> boby: netstat -a --inet
[06:57] <epi> Mikel, simply find the program, and un-tick the box.
[06:57] <dobby_>  /join #ubuntu effects
[06:57] <delirus> kalpik:  heh....  those hings are rather trivial if you ask em
[06:57] <xNinja> pike_, still at 75
[06:58] <sacater> boby: there are loads of different methods using netstat
[06:58] <lockdown> boby: arp -a   will show you IPs your computer has seen on the network in the past 30 seconds or so
[06:58] <mEck0> how can I make the window borders etc. smaller in gnome? Somebody know a nice theme for that?
[06:58] <kalpik> epi, please do cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[06:58] <mikebeecham> HELLO, does anyone know how I can add a line to /etc/fstab?  I have tried, but it tells me that it is read-only and I cannot change it
[06:58] <xNinja> boby, netstat -nutlap
[06:58] <hanzo> Anybody familiar with USplash Settings?
[06:58] <BuLLe_> hi
[06:58] <kalpik> delirus, heh.. if you dont need multimedia, then 64 bit is OK!
[06:58] <pike_> boby: maybe like 'for i in `seq 1 99`;do ping -c 192.168.1.$i | grep 64\ bytes\ from; done' or something
[06:58] <xNinja> hi BuLLe_
[06:58] <mike1234> epi, but that only removes that program does it not?  what if you want to remove all the libraries it installed for that program
[06:59] <lockdown> mikebeecham, put sudo before your command   ie sudo vi /etc/fstab   or whatever editor you want
[06:59] <billy> mikebeecham:  sudo nano /etc/fstab
[06:59] <boby> 10q guys i will try everything :)
[06:59] <delirus> kalpik:  You just have to install a 32-bit video player, along with all of the emul libraries
[06:59] <enderxim> mike1234, sudo apt-get remove *app* && sudo apt-get autoremove
[06:59] <pike_> boby: er ping -c 1 ipaddress
[06:59] <kazim86> i've downloaded a source package that has no configure script... it has got a configure.in & Makefile.in
[06:59] <epi> Says - "Driver          "nv"
[06:59] <kazim86> how do i compile it?
[06:59] <kalpik> delirus, yeah.. chroot and stuff.. too much headache..
[06:59] <jrib> kazim86: what are you compiling?
[06:59] <lockdown> kazim86, did you read the INSTALL or README file?
[06:59] <mike1234> enderxim, thanks enderxim
[06:59] <billy> lockdown:  i'm not sure that someone who doesn't know how to edit a file would know how to operate vi.
[06:59] <xNinja> cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep Driver

[07:00] <delirus> chroot?
[07:00] <jrib> !paste | xNinja
[07:00] <kalpik> epi, yes.. its not using the nvidia driver
[07:00] <ubotu> xNinja: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:00] <mikebeecham> ahh I wasn't using terminal, I was opening it via a window...I'm one month into Linux so I'm a little wary of such things
[07:00] <epi> I got the same as ninja.
[07:00] <epi> only "nv".
[07:00] <apokryphos> argh, bad lag
[07:00] <epi> Ok, ill toy about with this for a while. Thanks man.
[07:00] <kalpik> epi, are you sure you installed nvidia-glx?
[07:00] <delirus> I've never used a chroot on this OS.  Straight-out 64-bit...  and I have flash, w32codecs, and java working fine
[07:00] <kalpik> delirus, O_o wow! how?!
[07:00] <billy> mikebeecham: there's a way to do it like that, but don't.  use the terminal.  become very familiar with terminal commands.  it's far more efficient that operating via windows.
[07:00] <hendrixski> hey, is there a general ubuntu chat channel?

[07:01] <ralze> hi. i'm trying to listen to some mp3's from my server's samba share, but all player are complaining about missing codecs. when i cp the files to my hd, then everything works fine
[07:01] <kazim86> lockdown: they also say some wxWidgets is required
[07:01] <ralze> any documents about that issue?
[07:02] <mikebeecham> billy: I'm very windows based and the terminal is a little scary at present
[07:02] <hanzo> Anybody familiar with USplash Settings?
[07:02] <jrib> !anybody | hanzo
[07:02] <ubotu> hanzo: 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?
[07:02] <kalpik> epi, its around 12 MB only..
[07:02] <delirus> kalpik:  I installed the 32-bit emulation libraries, a 32-bit brower for flash, a 32-bit video player for the codecs.
[07:02] <epi> Fixed it! Yey for me! Didnt run the second configuration script. Anyway, ill just restart gnome brb.
[07:02] <pike_> ralze: i think its a limitation of nautilus maybe. but not sure.
[07:02] <delirus> kalpik:  I'm on gentoo though... I dunno how it works in Ubuntu :\
[07:02] <kalpik> epi, cool!
[07:03] <pike_> ralze: does it work from command line?
[07:03] <crayzee> How do I find out what package qdom.h is provided by?
[07:03] <jrib> crayzee: packages.ubuntu.com or use apt-file
[07:03] <billy> mikebeecham:  i know what you mean.  do your best though.  soon it will become very familiar.  what you don't want to do is to open nautilus using "gksudo nautlius" so that you can edit the files that way.  Understand?
[07:03] <crayzee> jrib, ta
[07:03] <DsB> hi everyone
[07:03] <kalpik> delirus, yes,, other distros work fine with 64 bit.. i tried suse 64 bit,, that was fine.. but couldnt get things running on ubuntu 64 bit
[07:03] <jrib> kazim86: have you read http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_nightly_build_on_Ubuntu ?
[07:03] <hanzo> To what extend is it possible to configure USplash (Resolution, Refresh Rate) and how do i do this?
[07:03] <delirus> hmm
[07:03] <DsB> how to have wireless with wpa_supplicant
[07:03] <DsB> ????????????'
[07:04] <delirus> kalpik:  I guess I'll just jump right into it and see if I can work it out.  If I get it working and you're here later (and I think to) I'll tell you how I did it 8)
[07:04] <mikebeecham> billy: kind of...if it wasnt' for the fact that I play a couple of games on the windows machine, I would migrate completely.  That said though, I am justr getting into it so will have to persevere
[07:04] <tts> i stll hqave grub problems
[07:04] <kalpik> delirus, ill be waiting ;)
[07:04] <tts> cant boot into ubunutu only Windows xp
[07:05] <billy> mikebeecham: when you get the hang of it, you'll like it much better than working with windows.
[07:06] <mikebeecham> billy: I hope so...at the moment I am scared of doing something that will cause the machine to crash.  I suppose the Ubuntu forums are the best place to learn the commands?
[07:06] <epi> You can use wine to run windows games on this.
[07:06] <quaal> hello does anyone know about creating raid arrays know where i am going wrong here http://pastebin.ca/409360
[07:06] <kalpik> mikebeecham, try http://ubuntuguide.org that will give you an idea about the basic commands
[07:06] <epi> Or if your willing to pay "cedega", 3 pounds a month, its excellent for mmorpgs like warcraft.
[07:06] <billy> mikebeecham:  there's lots of howtos.  I myself am going through the ones at www.linux.org, though I've found some of them are a little antiquated.  Hold on I'll find you a link.
[07:06] <budman> With beryl videos seem to be iffy in VLC player. Is there a setting I have to set?
[07:07] <kalpik> epi, did it work?
[07:07] <mikebeecham> Kalpik: thanks
[07:07] <mikebeecham> Billy: thank you very much for the help
[07:07] <epi> I think so. Its giving me Nvidia instead of Nv now.
[07:07] <billy> mikebeecham:  https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[07:07] <hylje> epi: cedega for wow is somewhat pointless
[07:07] <kalpik> epi, try runnning glxgears
[07:07] <tts> any one can help with grub
[07:07] <budman> Seems berly is having issues soon as i switch desktops the video works and everything lags.
[07:08] <epi> Yep it works :D
[07:08] <klover> I accidentally set HTML to always open with NVu, so now when I go to any link, it asks to NVu open it.  I thought it was only for the FTP files.  Anyway, how do I set this back to the default?  KDE Dapper
[07:09] <kalpik> epi, then yes, the nvidia driver is working :D
[07:09] <kane`> when trying to install the newest nvidia drivers for my graphics card, the installer says that i am running an X-server even when i run it through ctrl+alt+F2
[07:10] <addams> how do i create a file in a restriced directory ??
[07:10] <Enverex> kane`, Well duh, it's still running even if you're not looking at it, you need to close it
[07:10] <epi> Nobody new to ubuntu hit "ctrl+alt+f2".
[07:10] <addams> using gedit
[07:10] <klover> kane:  kill gdm
[07:10] <kane`> kk
[07:10] <pradeep> addams, sudo touch <file>
[07:10] <clearzen> quaal: could you paste the output of this command mdadm -E /dev/sda1; mdadm -E /dev/sdb1
[07:10] <kalpik> kane`, you need to type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop before installing the drivers
[07:10] <snk00sj> i am having problems installing nvidia-legacy drivers on a feisty machine (just upgraded)
[07:10] <Enverex> klover, kane` : correct command would be "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[07:11] <klover> yes, sorry Enverex, I couldn't remember the command
[07:11] <snk00sj> after starting x, xserver complains the drivers of the kernel & of the module do not match
[07:11] <klover> I just meant he should "kill" it
[07:11] <kalpik> snk00sj, please join #ubuntu+1 for feisty problems :)
[07:11] <clearzen> quaal: and mdadm -D /dev/md0
[07:11] <kane`> i knew what meant :)
[07:11] <mettao87> hi
[07:11] <pradeep> addams, sudo gedit <filename>

[07:14] <x386> hi *
[07:14] <dcordes> quaal: thanks. it is not in there..
[07:14] <x386> have a problem with parallel port..
[07:14] <quaal> parallel ports are still used ?
[07:14] <dcordes> ubuntu is automatically mounting it

[07:17] <Sayers> jrib: The directory so I can add it to eclipse?
[07:17] <EightEleven> dcordes: i see. If I'm not mistaken, the hotplug package takes care of auto-mounting.
[07:17] <EightEleven> dcordes: But removing it might also break other auto-detection stuff.
[07:17] <assasukasse> hi everyone, i need to do a complex tax, i want to change my fs to jfs, from reiserfs, i was planning to take out the hdd of my lap, copying everyhting somewhere else, format to jfs then copy everyhting back

[07:22] <bluesign> bruenig: it is /dev/hdc actualy, /dev/dvd is symlinked to it i guess
[07:22] <bruenig> bluesign, well try mounting /dev/hdc
[07:23] <bluesign> bruenig: same result
[07:23] <bruenig> bluesign, where is it mounting?
[07:23] <bluesign> bruenig: /media/cdrom0
[07:23] <ferronica> any one here using Nokia 7710 in ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake???
[07:23] <tts> help cant boot into ubuntu :(
[07:23] <bruenig> bluesign, and there is nothing in there?
[07:23] <bluesign> a dead symlink called dvd pointing to hdc
[07:24] <bruenig> bluesign, mounted inside /media/cdrom0
[07:24] <bruenig> ?
[07:24] <bluesign> yep
[07:24] <bruenig> bluesign, so /media/cdrom0/dvd
[07:24] <bluesign> let me paste

[07:25] <factotum> Im running the last LTS release, 6.06 on my desktop. When another LTS release is out do I have to upgrade though edgy, fiesty and whatever else comes between to get to that next LTS, or do I need to do a complete reinstall?
[07:25] <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
[07:25] <bruenig> bluesign, that doesn't make any sense in any possible way
[07:26] <factotum> ummm...did what I just posted just get chopped off?
[07:26] <bluesign> bruenig: yep that's why I  cannot understand
[07:26] <bronze_0_1> factotum: no
[07:26] <tjl30> how do I edit my source list?
[07:26] <bruenig> unless somehow all the dvd had on it was a file called dvd symlink, I just can't see anything that would make sense
[07:26] <factotum> alright, only is displaying the last line for some reason on my xchat
[07:26] <bruenig> tjl30, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:27] <Sayers> kalpik: is it super cool with a lot of features?
[07:27] <coopster> i've had my ubuntu system 6.10 working very smoothly for a while.  my computer is getting more sluggish, and it's most likely because i'm running some memory hogs behind the scenes without meaning too.  i have beryl and emerald running on top of gdm, and I was wondering if there was any good guide for tweaking for performance.  do you know of a good place to start, or a good system monitor tool that will generate logs I can look back on late
[07:27] <coopster> r?
[07:27] <bruenig> Sayers, generally the consensus is amarok is the best
[07:27] <bluesign> bruenig: how can i troubleshoot?
[07:27] <bruenig> bluesign, I don't know, if you do figure it out though, tell me
[07:27] <kalpik> Sayers, its almost same as Amarok, just that its gtk based..
[07:27] <Sayers> bruenig: I use amorak at the moment
[07:27] <bluesign> bruenig: ok :)
[07:27] <Sayers> It
[07:27] <thcmonkey> !resolution
[07:27] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:27] <factotum> so yea, since i like to stick with a more stable LTS release. Am i going to have to reinstall when the next LTS is available and not be able to dist-upgrade to it?
[07:27] <Sayers> It's cool and all :S
[07:28] <kalpik> Sayers, yes :)
[07:28] <tts> any one knwo why i cant setup grub on  setup (sda3)
[07:28] <bruenig> factotum, that is a good question, I would assume so
[07:28] <trev_> can anyone tell me how to turn on your microphone in ubuntu?
[07:28] <crdlb> factotum, there will be a lts-to-lts upgrade path I believe
[07:28] <factotum> oh I hope so
[07:29] <coopster> !patience | trev_
[07:29] <ubotu> trev_: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[07:29] <bruenig> tts, because that is the wrong syntax, should be setup (hd0,2)
[07:29] <trev_> sorry
[07:29] <GaiaX11> How do I restart my cups?
[07:29] <coopster> trev_, erm, i meant to have it say something about repeating questions.  just wait a sec and someone will hopefully help.  if i knew how i would :)
[07:29] <snk00sj> could anyone tell me the easiest way to install windows on an ubuntu machine, and make sure the installer (win installer) adds a bootloader
[07:29] <trev_> coopster: got it
[07:29] <bruenig> !grub | snk00sj just add grub back
[07:29] <ubotu> snk00sj just add grub back: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:29] <crdlb> trev_, did you try double-clicking on the volume control applet?
[07:30] <crdlb> and checking the levels?
[07:30] <vetsin> I set up a dhcp server and it works, then set up NAT between my two ethernet cards but it doesn't seem to be fowarding nets, any ideas why?
[07:30] <tts> bruenig: look grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
[07:30] <tts> grub> 2)
[07:30] <trev_> crdlb:yeah im doing that right now
[07:30] <coopster> trev_, it's my understanding that it should 'just work'.  I would check to make sure that you are in the audio group (run 'groups' from a command line) and that your volume on the mic isn't muted (what crdlb said)
[07:30] <kalpik> GaiaX11, sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
[07:30] <snk00sj> thanks
[07:30] <bruenig> tts, look at what?
[07:30] <trev_> coopster:thx, i think it might be hardware
[07:31] <tts> bruenig:when i run find /boot/grub/stage1 i get grub> 2)
[07:31] <bruenig> tts, first, the output should not have grub> in front of it
[07:31] <trev_> coopster: do you know if it would it be under microphone or line in?
[07:31] <Souvent22> hello.
[07:32] <bruenig> tts, did you run sudo grub?
[07:32] <Souvent22> Is 'mail' avail for Ubuntu?
[07:32] <tts> bruenig: yeh it shoud be (hd some this
[07:32] <Souvent22> i have sendmail installed, but i'm trying to install the 'mail' client, and it's not found.
[07:32] <coopster> trev_, in that case, check to make sure that your sound card is getting picked up properly, you can type lspci in the console to see what devices linux is seeing.
[07:32] <tts> bruenig:yes
[07:32] <yell0w> Souvent22, mailx
[07:32] <coopster> trev_, it should be microphone, line in is the input port on your sound device
[07:32] <bruenig> tts, well if you know what partition it is setup on, then just keep going
[07:32] <yell0w> Souvent22, or procmail
[07:32] <Souvent22> yell0w: ah, that contains the mail command.
[07:32] <tts> found it  (hd0,2)

[07:36] <coopster> anyone have a suggestion for a good performance monitoring tool for ubuntu, like a logging 'top' sort of thing?  i want to figure out what it is i've installed that is hogging the system.
[07:36] <tts> bruenig:ok what ?
[07:36] <bruenig> tts, right after I looked at the link, I told you it was on (hd0,1) and then you just kept going saying stuff
[07:36] <bruenig> why even link it to me
[07:36] <jubei_> guys I have this eth1 interface, which must be up for ppp to work. What do I need to put in networking/interfaces for it to just come up without any adresses or looking for dhcp etc?
[07:36] <tts> bruenig:lol
[07:36] <tts> :)
[07:37] <niles> hi
[07:37] <niles> how can i disable grub so it is not invoked at boot time, with out having to remove it?
[07:37] <tts> bruenig:i had done that before still coudnlt boot
[07:37] <kalpik> niles, why would you want to do that?
[07:37] <coopster> jubei_, well, 'auto eth1' will make it come up automatically, i don't know if there's a way to leave it unconfigured completely
[07:37] <bruenig> tts, perhaps grub isn't installed...
[07:37] <Souvent22> yell0w: would you recommend one over the other?
[07:37] <factotum> anyone here play planeshift?
[07:37] <tts> bruenig:sudo apt-get install grub ?
[07:37] <jubei_> coopster: auto eth1 by itself doesn't bring it up
[07:38] <yell0w> Souvent22, i'm using mailx, never used procmail before
[07:38] <tts> grub is already the newest version.
[07:38] <yell0w> Souvent22, if it works out for you, why worry about the other ?
[07:38] <bruenig> tts, well it is obviously installed, or you couldn't get to the grub prompt
[07:38] <crdlb> coopster, with top (or htop which is a nice replacement) you can look at the cpu time to tell what is hogging resources
[07:38] <rambo3> tts, what does this retiurn :   find /boot/grub/stage1
[07:38] <factotum> im just browsing around looking at native games looks like some decent finds
[07:38] <strat89> Q: cannot access anything except device manager under "system>administration>x . accepts password then nothing or starts to load app then nothing. Newb on fresh install of breezy.
[07:38] <yell0w> Souvent22, listen to buddha and be content when things work my friend ;)
[07:38] <factotum> did any of the quakes go open source? i thought i heard something about that
[07:39] <tts> rambo3:  (hd0,2)
[07:39] <rambo3> tts that is in grub
[07:39] <coopster> jubei_, you probably need a corresponding 'iface eth1 inet ...' line, which usually ends in dhcp or static config info, i dunno if it'll come up without that info
[07:39] <rambo3> ok
[07:39] <coopster> crdlb, do you know of one that will make logs so i can look at the averages later?
[07:39] <crdlb> factotum, the q3 engine is open source
[07:39] <leshaste> bruenig: :) thanks
[07:39] <fenrig> how can i fix my monitor problem
[07:39] <rambo3> tts setup (hd0,2) ?
[07:39] <factotum> oh cool
[07:39] <Souvent22> yell0w: i like your train of thought. :) thanks. it's now working, and i like it that way :).
[07:39] <jubei_> coopster: it won't! :D and If I put DHCP it just keeps looking for a dhcp server:)
[07:39] <factotum> thats what nexuiz runs on isnt it?
[07:39] <jubei_> coopster: and that annoys me :D
[07:39] <factotum> or whatever its called
[07:39] <yell0w> Souvent22, np
[07:39] <tts> rambo3: Error 12: Invalid device requested
[07:40] <coopster> jubei_, just give it a static IP address then, that'll keep dhcp from launching
[07:40] <rambo3> tts : root(hd0,2)
[07:40] <jubei_> coopster: but that's.. kinda .. lame coz that interface doesn't really need an IP. It just does bridging with my DSL modem
[07:40] <ubuntu_noob> processor
[07:40] <ubuntu_noob> cup
[07:41] <ubuntu_noob> cpu
[07:41] <soundray> ubuntu_noob: can we help?
[07:41] <kalpik> rambo3, tts its root (hd0,2).. notice the space?
[07:41] <tts> rambo3:  setup (hd0,2)   ... succeeded
[07:42] <coopster> jubei_, looking at `man interfaces`, it seems like the 'mapping' directive is what you'd need to use for it to run a bridge configuration script automatically, or something like that
[07:42] <tts> kalpik:yess good piont
[07:42] <tbuss> need help with my repositories, when I update I keep getting a failed to fetch error. I've checked the repository in question, altered and even removed, still get the Fail to fetch error?
[07:42] <ubuntu_noob> soundray, hi, my cpu is shown unkonw in the component manager
[07:43] <coopster> jubei_, found it.  just put 'auto eth1'  and 'iface eth1 manual'
[07:43] <ammiel> im having troubles mounting a dvd
[07:43] <coopster> jubei_, erm, 'iface eth1 inet manual'
[07:43] <tts> http://pastebin.ca/409400
[07:43] <jubei_> coopster: thanks :D
[07:43] <soundray> ubuntu_noob: does it matter? Do you have any problems because of it?
[07:43] <ammiel> gnome doesnt seem to mount it and i cant seem to find the mount command to mount the dvd
[07:43] <tts> time for reboot ?
[07:43] <coopster> jubei_, no problem, see if it even works before gettin too grateful ;)
[07:44] <tbuss> anyone know what else I can use besides http://archive.ubuntu.com/dists/edgy/edgy-proposed/Release I keep getting errors with this one
[07:44] <ubuntu_noob> soundray, I was wondering will it co'z fault cpu temp, when the cpu weren't detected.
[07:44] <kalpik> tbuss, try de.archive.ubuntu.com instead of archive.ubuntu.com
[07:45] <soundray> ubuntu_noob: I'm not sure what you mean by "component manager". I suggest you open a terminal and run
[07:45] <soundray> ubuntu_noob: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[07:46] <soundray> ubuntu_noob: tell me what it reports in the line "model name:"
[07:46] <tbuss> kalpik: still the same error, for the old repositiry
[07:47] <coopster> hrmm, ok, so now i'd like to use the `time` command to collect statistics about the programs i'm running.  is there an easy way to tell linux that for each program run, i really want to run `time -etc $PROGRAM` ?
[07:47] <variant> coopster: thats a bad idea, some commands will fskup if you do that
[07:47] <ubuntu_noob> soundray, forget it, I just asked another noob question...
[07:47] <ubuntu> hello
[07:48] <soundray> ubuntu_noob: was that output okay, then?
[07:48] <coopster> variant, shoot.  any idea how i might exclude those programs, or otherwise accomplish the goal of collecting stats about what programs hog the most resources over time?
[07:48] <variant> coopster: add the time command to the start of hte launcher for each application you specifically want to test.. or make a little script. you can output the timeing to a text file
[07:48] <anirudha> hello everyone
[07:48] <kalpik> tbuss, hmm.. try after sometime.. maybe they are updating the repos..
[07:48] <ubuntu_noob> soundray, yep, ^^ thanks for your help anyways...
[07:48] <ubuntu> ooooo it's work
[07:48] <variant> coopster: the time command wont tell you anything about what programs are using a lot of resources.. it just times startup time
[07:48] <tbuss> kalpik: i can locate the url on my browser...
[07:49] <coopster> variant,  well, my issue is that just sometimes the computer seems sluggish, it's not a production server or anything, so if i make it have hiccups it's no big deal, but i'd like to collect some info so i can tune this thing up later
[07:49] <kane`> hmm, that was odd
[07:49] <kalpik> tbuss, yes.. the error you are getting is at the GPG file.. just try after 5 minutes
[07:49] <ubuntu_noob> I guess I was drugged by M$ for too long
[07:49] <variant> coopster: you could use a combination of ps, grep, sort and a while loop
[07:49] <tbuss> kalpik: I removed the repository that it keeps giving me a error for. Is it possible it is located somewhere else
[07:49] <Jenn> Help - I have ubuntu installed, I also want to install window xp on the same computer. How do I go on about doing this?
[07:49] <coopster> variant,  i thought time did CPU % and max memory info?
[07:50] <variant> coopster: thats probably things like updatedb running in cron jobs
[07:50] <davidelv> Jenn.. It would be much easier to do it the other way around
[07:50] <soundray> Jenn: you chose the more difficult sequence... It's easier to install ubuntu after windows.
[07:50] <Jenn> oh noooo :(
[07:50] <anirudha> Hi, does anyone know the equivalent of flash player on linux?
[07:50] <kane`> when running the install for my nvidia drivers, restarting the gdm and going back ctrl+alt+f7, i got that x server was having errors, so i rebooted and loaded windows, then rebooted again and went back to ubuntu, and now it works just fine...
[07:50] <coopster> variant, yeah, i guess that is the best way, just a short script instead of looking for the perfect answer :-p   thanks, woulda been a while before i thought to just shell script it
[07:50] <variant> coopster: no, just run time (not startup time as i initialy said)
[07:50] <kane`> with the new drivers installed
[07:50] <davidelv> Jenn> You have to repartition your harddisk, install xp and rebuild grub
[07:50] <tts> hi ,when i boot i get no such partition
[07:51] <kalpik> anirudha, sudo aptitude install flashplayer-nonfree
[07:51] <Jenn> daviddelv, you are saying I need to install window xp and then install ubuntu?...
[07:51] <anirudha> kalpik, thanks ... I'll try it =)
[07:51] <variant> coopster: simply run top when the system feels sluggish.. that will tell you what is using the most cpu
[07:51] <kalpik> anirudha, and try following http://ubuntuguide.org
[07:51] <anirudha> kalpik, okay
[07:51] <linoleum> hi guys, I've got a simple question : I want to install feisty on my desktop, but I use a Fakeraid0, and need dmraid (I presume). Should I download the desktop install CD or the Alternate install CD ? Tkx
[07:51] <thcmonkey> anyone know where i can get libdvdcss2?
[07:51] <davidelv> Jenn, if you do, ubuntu will automaticly make your comp. dual boot
[07:52] <variant> linoleum: #ubuntu+1 for feisty talk
[07:52] <soundray> Jenn: it's definitely easier that way.
[07:52] <kalpik> tbuss, im sorry.. im really out of ideas if it doesnt work still..
[07:52] <linoleum> tkx variant
[07:52] <ardchoille> !seveas | thcmonkey
[07:52] <ubotu> thcmonkey: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[07:52] <tbuss> kalpik: oaky, thanks for your help
[07:52] <tts> !grub
[07:52] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:52] <kalpik> thcmonkey, add the medibuntu repository..
[07:52] <coopster> variant, i figure i'll just have a script gather info every 1-5 minutes, and then start axing the things that use more resources on average than they're worth
[07:52] <Jenn> daviddelv & soundray - thanks....
[07:52] <variant> coopster: i see
[07:52] <anirudha> kalpik, btw what does "non-free" mean?
[07:52] <thcmonkey> cheers
[07:53] <davidelv> Jenn, but it is possible to install xp now, you just have to rebuild your bootloader, because xp will remove it
[07:53] <kalpik> anirudha, that means its closed source..
[07:53] <anirudha> kalpik, Do I need to purchase it?
[07:54] <variant> anirudha: no, could be shareware
[07:54] <variant> anirudha: or freeware
[07:54] <soundray> Jenn: you could also see how it goes with ubuntu alone. Some people don't even need Windows, because Ubuntu has equivalents for everything they do.
[07:54] <anirudha> variant, oh okay ... so freeware can be closed source?
[07:54] <variant> anirudha: it generaly is
[07:54] <kalpik> anirudha, no.. its is "free" just that its closed source
[07:54] <soundray> Jenn: others are happy running Windows programs under wine, although wine isn't fully mature yet
[07:55] <anirudha> variant, oh okay .. thanks!
[07:55] <anirudha> kalpik, oh okay .. thanks!
[07:55] <davidelv>  Jenn: and you can try visualization
[07:55] <Afief> My system just crashed, when rebooting it says that my filesystem is corrupt. how can i save the files?
[07:55] <Jenn> daviddelv - is that similar to wine?
[07:55] <variant> anirudha: open source is not a very good term really, if microsoft released the source code to windows vista but with a licence that said you can only look at it but not actualy use it in any way then they could legitimatly call it open source, but it would be "Free" software
[07:55] <soundray> Jenn: and yet another possibility is to run Windows in a virtual machine, e.g. qemu (free software) or vmware (closed software)
[07:55] <variant> anirudha: free as in speech
[07:55] <EightEleven> Afief: Try booting with a rescue cd
[07:56] <davidelv> Jenn> no you get a visual machine, and then you can install a complete windows
[07:56] <Afief> EightEleven: where do i get a rescue cd?
[07:56] <soundray> davidelv: s/visual/virtual/
[07:56] <EightEleven> Afief: Ubuntu Live CDs can be used as rescue cd.
[07:56] <Jenn> daviddelv, I see thanks, I will try to google and learn more about this.
[07:56] <EightEleven> Afief: Knoppix CDs too
[07:56] <davidelv> Jenn> virtual machine :-) look at vmware
[07:56] <variant> anirudha: thats why you should be wary of companies that say they are "open source companies" or something simmilar.. normally it's total bs
[07:57] <Afief> EightEleven, okay it is booting, what should i do now?
[07:57] <anirudha> variant, Good example ... thanks for the clarification.
[07:57] <variant> anirudha: np
[07:57] <stjepan> what's gargnome?
[07:57] <variant> stjepan: gnome installer
[07:57] <EightEleven> Afief: deceide if you can save your files on the network or on a usb-stick
[07:58] <downstairs> Help: when downloading torrents, the connection goes out!
[07:58] <faceface> downstairs, check with isp
[07:58] <shaY-> how to start nano?
[07:58] <EightEleven> Afief: So you should use the rescue cd to make a backup of your files to a safe location.
[07:58] <faceface> shaY-, type nano at the command line
[07:58] <shaY-> kk
[07:59] <downstairs> faceface, I have comcast and it has been fine so far
[07:59] <Afief> EightEleven: I have the important files backed up, I just don't want to format/reinstall ubuntu if that's possible
[07:59] <Shrimpy_> hey, i'm moving a file and it says i need permission. is there somthing i need to enable saying i'm me or root.  or how do you move files on the command line
[07:59] <faceface> downstairs, which client?
[07:59] <downstairs> any
[07:59] <faceface> bittorrent client?
[07:59] <faceface> oh
[07:59] <downstairs> yeah
[07:59] <downstairs> currently i'm using uTorrent with Wine
[07:59] <downstairs> and it's actually given me the best results
[07:59] <soundray> Shrimpy_: 'sudo mv /source/file /target/dir/'
[07:59] <faceface> best?
[07:59] <downstairs> yes
[07:59] <variant> Shrimpy_: use sudo, or open the file browser like this "gksudo nautilus" but BE CAREFUL
[08:00] <faceface> in what sense?
[08:00] <downstairs> it downloads really quickly
[08:00] <soundray> Shrimpy_: it will ask for your *user* password
[08:00] <downstairs> but eventually the connection just "dies"
[08:00] <downstairs> fyi: i'm conneted via a wireless adapter
[08:00] <faceface> downstairs, whole internet connection? or just the torrent?
[08:00] <soundray> Shrimpy_: there's a good introduction to sudo:
[08:00] <pike_> Shrimpy_: as a rule anything out of your home directory will reqire you to use sudo
[08:00] <soundray> ubotu, tell Shrimpy_ about sudo
[08:00] <downstairs> whole internet connection
[08:00] <faceface> downstairs, you know how to restart it?
[08:00] <arpegius> can i restore the original smb.conf
[08:00] <downstairs> yes, the internet connection? yes
[08:00] <arpegius> ?
[08:00] <Shrimpy_> i know about sudo, but i dont know how to access it out of the command line
[08:01] <EightEleven> Afief: You can try to manually repair your Ubuntu install form the rescue CD.
[08:01] <faceface> hrm...
[08:01] <variant> Shrimpy_: i just told you
[08:01] <faceface> is it one torrent in particular?
[08:01] <variant> Shrimpy_: gksudo nautilus
[08:01] <Afief> EightEleven: how do i do that?
[08:01] <downstairs> nope
[08:01] <anirudha> kalpik, I tried "sudo aptitude install flashplayer-nonfree" but it was unsuccessful. I get the following error: Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "flashplayer-nonfree"
[08:01] <downstairs> this used to happen to me before as well
[08:01] <downstairs> I don't remember how it went away.. but now it's back
[08:01] <EightEleven> Afief: First you have to find out what corrupted your filesystem.
[08:02] <faceface> downstairs, can't help
[08:02] <Shrimpy_> variant: to open that, what should i go to?
[08:02] <Afief> that's my hda1, a reiserFS
[08:02] <anirudha> kalpik, Did you get such an error when you tried it?
[08:02] <downstairs> hmm
[08:02] <Afief> EightEleven:that's my hda1, a reiserFS
[08:02] <variant> Shrimpy_: alt f2
[08:02] <faceface> other than saying 'use vanilla bt software and try to debug'
[08:02] <downstairs> well vanilla BT software was horrible
[08:02] <EightEleven> Afief: Can you read files from hda1 with the rescue cd?
[08:02] <variant> Shrimpy_: make a launcher in the menu
[08:02] <downstairs> i got horrible download speeds
[08:02] <downstairs> crawling
[08:02] <Afief> EightEleven: no
[08:02] <kalpik> anirudha, so sorry.. its flashplugin-nonfree
[08:02] <faceface> downstairs, who cares... if your connection doesn't die
[08:02] <kalpik> :P
[08:03] <downstairs> huh?
[08:03] <EightEleven> Afief: What happened before your filesystem got corrupted?
[08:03] <faceface> downstairs, if your speeds are slow its a torrent issue, if your internet connection is dying whenever you use torrent - something else is wrong
[08:04] <anirudha> kalpik, No problem ... thanks again =)
[08:04] <Shrimpy_> variant: how do i put it in the menu (sorry i'm pretty much lost out side of the command line :))
[08:04] <downstairs> well it dies after a certain period of time
[08:04] <Terrorart> hy can anone tell me how do i add undernet to my server list
[08:04] <Terrorart> ?
[08:04] <kalpik> anirudha, :)
[08:04] <Afief> EightEleven: I was browsing the internet as usual and downloaded a PDF... dunno if that led to the failure though
[08:04] <downstairs> my theory is that it... reaches a really high download speed and only then it goes out
[08:04] <soundray> Shrimpy_: why don't you use the command line then?
[08:04] <faceface> downstairs, no idea... back to isp problem
[08:04] <tts> can any one help me with grub
[08:04] <Shrimpy_> soundray: because i'm need to learn how to do both
[08:04] <downstairs> thanks for trying then
[08:05] <faceface> tts, speak
[08:05] <Terrorart> hy how do i ad the server Undernet to my server list so I can connect with it
[08:05] <Terrorart> ?
[08:05] <lspci> hello all...
[08:05] <tts> i reboot and get partitions dose not exist
[08:06] <faceface> tts, after doing what?
[08:06] <soundray> Shrimpy_: I suggest you don't perform any system administration tasks while you familiarize yourself with nautilus and gnome.
[08:06] <lspci> anyone know how to set the permissions on a hard drive device for unrestricted access?
[08:06] <wolfspiri1> has anyone had any issues with ubuntu + beryl svn + nvidia where it will lock up once a day or so and you can still move the mouse but not the keyboard and you have to power it down?  All stats seem ok when it happens (CPU load, temp, etc..) and there are messages in the kernel logs about nvram as well..
[08:06] <tts> faceface: after trying to install grub agian
[08:06] <faceface> lspci, man fstab
[08:06] <bruenig> lspci, like 777 permissions?
[08:06] <EightEleven> Afief: That should not be a problem.
[08:06] <tts> i removed my IDE drives
[08:06] <Slart> wolfspiri1: no problems here, nvidia+amd+beryl
[08:06] <EightEleven> Afief: It might be hardware related.
[08:06] <soundray> lspci: filesystem access or raw device access?
[08:06] <Shrimpy_> soundray: i'm just moving a folder with a skin in it for a program
[08:06] <faceface> tts, sounds like you configured grub wrong
[08:06] <lspci> raw device access
[08:07] <faceface> lspci, man mount
[08:07] <Afief> EightEleven: weird, the pc has been working well for ages. any suggestion how to fix it?
[08:07] <Slart> wolfspiri1: apart from my screensaver "lock screen" thingy going amok when run under beryl...
[08:07] <bruenig> lspci, put umask=0000 in the options in /etc/fstab for it
[08:07] <EightEleven> Afief: Reinstalling Ubuntu (on ext3) might be the easiest sollution.
[08:07] <lspci> I have a Windows VMware machine, and I am trying to add the primary drive as a HD in vmware, but I don't have permissions as a user
[08:07] <bofh80> Afief, turn the heating down :D. actually it does sound like your PC might be over heating! got any way of checking temps?
[08:07] <tts> faceface: how should i be configuring it
[08:07] <tts> please
[08:07] <lspci> bruenig: ah!  thanks
[08:08] <faceface> tts, what is your setup? dual boot? xp ubuntu?
[08:08] <tts> faceface: xp and ubuntu xp oots up fine
[08:08] <soundray> lspci: sounds dangerous... but essentially you can add your user to the disk group for that. bruenig's advice is for filesystem access, not raw device.
[08:08] <faceface> tts, and how do you reconfigure grub without ubuntu working?
[08:09] <tts> live cd
[08:09] <faceface> ok
[08:09] <Afief> bofh80: actually not, I'm in another city and playing tech support for my bro on the phone(he has terminal-phobia)  but i meant "ages" as in turning on and off, boot speeds are good enough for me
[08:09] <lspci> soundray: ok, doesn't matter anyway, it's just a temp file store...
[08:09] <faceface> in linux say df and look carefully at the devices listed
[08:09] <soundray> lspci: it does matter a lot
[08:09] <faceface> like /dev/hda1
[08:09] <tts> faceface: been at it for 3 hours
[08:09] <Terrorart> can anybody just please tell me how to add the server undernet in my server list
[08:09] <lspci> ?
[08:09] <ubuntu> hola
[08:09] <faceface> tts, you in linux?
[08:10] <kalpik> Terrorart, xchat->network list->add
[08:10] <soundray> Terrorart: it would help if you said what program you are using.
[08:10] <faceface> Terrorart, man apt
[08:10] <faceface> oh
[08:10] <Terrorart> xchat irc
[08:10] <Terrorart> ubuntu
[08:10] <ubuntu> que
[08:10] <Terrorart> of course
[08:10] <faceface> tts, are you in xp or ubuntu live disk?
[08:10] <tts> faceface: yes im on the live cd
[08:10] <bruenig> undernet is already in there by default at least
[08:10] <bruenig> if you get the repo version
[08:10] <faceface> OK, and what /dev/'s does "df" list?
[08:11] <lspci> tts: if you run grub from the shell, and run 'find /boot/grub/stage1'  what does it say?
[08:11] <Terrorart> thsi is what it has been telling me
[08:11] <Terrorart> * Looking up newserver
[08:11] <Terrorart> * Unknown host. Maybe you misspelled it?
[08:11] <Terrorart> but i don't think I have mispelled Undernet
[08:11] <faceface> tts, listen to lspci, he knows more than me
[08:11] <Terrorart> :/
[08:11] <bruenig> Terrorart, I hope you aren't just putting undernet, you need to put the address
[08:11] <verma> I need to learn how to figure my firewall manually, I hate these tools!
[08:11] <faceface> Terrorart, undernet.irc?
[08:11] <Terrorart> oh ok
[08:11] <faceface> verma, iptables
[08:11] <Terrorart> what's the address?
[08:11] <Terrorart> im sorry i'm very stupid in these things
[08:12] <faceface> Terrorart, google
[08:12] <atoponce> Heartsbane: ping
[08:12] <faceface> Terrorart, I don't know more than you don't
[08:12] <EightEleven> Afief: You could ask your brother to transfer control over the computer to you.
[08:12] <tts>  faceface: , lspci:  http://pastebin.ca/409427
[08:12] <faceface> tts ty
[08:12] <bruenig> faceface, generally the paradigm is, if you don't know to not say anything.
[08:12] <EightEleven> Afief: But that is also somewhat difficult to set-up
[08:12] <erstazi> Is FireFox 2.0.0.3 ready for Ubuntu? I really don't want to do those quick fix updates
[08:12] <faceface> bruenig, silence
[08:12] <Terrorart> it still isn;t workiong for me
[08:13] <faceface> Terrorart, what did you try?
[08:13] <verma> faceface, yeah I know ... they are a pain too :( ... this guarddog sucks
[08:13] <ubuntu> hola

[08:13] <atoponce> ubuntu: english, please
[08:13] <ubotu> ubuntu: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.

[08:14] <faceface> verma, man iptables... its not so difficult once you get the hang of it
[08:14] <variant> dobby_: in what way dont they work?
[08:14] <faceface> soundray, yeah
[08:14] <faceface> verma, or try firestarter
[08:14] <verma> faceface, yeah .. I think so .. but I have never given it enough time to be able to get a hang of it
[08:14] <dobby_> variant, it just says no video, yet i know there is one and its just a black box
[08:14] <bofh80> dobby_,  the only firefox video plugin i ever seen work is for gxine, i've tried mplayer VLC, etc, etc, gxine only video plugin that works, and it sucks too
[08:14] <verma> faceface, firestarter is gnome isn't it?
[08:14] <variant> dobby_: are they all of the same format?
[08:14] <lspci> tts: ok, now paste me your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:14] <faceface> verma, yup
[08:14] <soundray> faceface: "Coffee or tea?" -- "Yeah."
[08:15] <kalpik> dobby_, install mozilla-mplayer
[08:15] <variant> open vlc log window, it will tell you what is going wrong
[08:15] <verma> faceface, yeah, I can't use that, I run kubuntu
[08:15] <variant> dobby_: ignore what kalpik sugests for now
[08:15] <dobby_> variant, lol why?
[08:15] <Afief> bofh80: well, you might wanna add this to your debugging methods: kicking the PC got it to work again
[08:15] <variant> kalpik: he is not trying to play videos in mozilla/firefox..
[08:15] <faceface> soundray, I try the following... display img.jpg -crop 0x0x50x50, but its not a 50 square image from 0x0
[08:15] <dobby_> variant, i dunnu what format it is thats the problem
[08:15] <faceface> verma, sucks
[08:15] <bofh80> kalpik, i've tried that before and it fails to show videos'. can you confirm you have that working yourself?
[08:15] <variant> dobby_: because what he sugest won't help you
[08:15] <faceface> verma, use gnome ;)
[08:15] <variant> dobby_: what is the file extension?
[08:15] <soundray> faceface: 50x50+0+0
[08:16] <verma> faceface, god damn it! no!! :D
[08:16] <faceface> soundray, thanks very much
[08:16] <soundray> verma: please don't
[08:16] <variant> dobby_: in a terminal run "file /path/to/file.whatever
[08:16] <kalpik> bofh80, variant videos work well here..
[08:16] <bofh80> Afief, LMAO did he kick it?
[08:16] <verma> soundray, please don't what?
[08:16] <dobby_> variant,  there embed into a webpage
[08:16] <variant> dobby_: obviously change the /path/
[08:16] <soundray> verma: use swear words.
[08:16] <bofh80> kalpik, with mozilla-mplayer?
[08:16] <variant> dobby_: ah, why din't you tell me that in the first place?"!
[08:16] <kalpik> bofh80, yes
[08:16] <variant> dobby_: do what kalpik said!!!!!
[08:16] <dobby_> variant, lol
[08:16] <bofh80> kalpik, cool, i get rid of this gxine plugin crap and try that again :D
[08:16] <lspci> brb
[08:16] <Afief> bofh80: he did:D turns out the computer illiterate have some sweet methods to deal with problems(computer-car analogy?)
[08:17] <verma> soundray, I did not swear .. do you mean "god damn it" .. I am not sure if it even qualifies as a swear
[08:17] <kalpik> variant, lol!
[08:17] <faceface> soundray, are you sure of that syntax?
[08:17] <tts> lspci: http://pastebin.ca/409438
[08:17] <variant> kalpik: indeed
[08:17] <kalpik> just make sure you have w32codecs installed too..
[08:17] <faceface> verma, do not invoke deieties in this channel
[08:17] <bofh80> Afief, SATA or IDE? i betya that lead to the disk is buggered or loose :P
[08:17] <kgrad> hi all, would anyone care to entertain an annoying xorg configuration problem?
[08:17] <verma> faceface, soundray .. lol .. alright sorry people

[08:17] <Afief> I am a deity you insensitive clod
[08:17] <faceface> soundray, display stack.01.jpg -crop 20x20+0+0 does not look smaller than 50x50+0+0
[08:18] <soundray> verma: it could potentially offend people and get in the way of people who try to use the channel in some professional capacity.
[08:18] <verma> I said I am sorry people! phew!
[08:18] <verma> soundray, understood
[08:18] <faceface> verma, gosh darn it! shut your cake hole
[08:18] <Afief> bofh80: IDE, gotta check on the poor thing when i get back from college next weekend
[08:18] <verma> faceface, that works for me
[08:18] <soundray> faceface: use convert
[08:18] <faceface> put a sock in your cake hole :)
[08:18] <faceface> soundray, ok
[08:18] <bofh80> Afief, hahahaha and clean off the boot marks. we used to have to do that in work for finance manager. he kept booting it accross the room, it was windows 2000 :P

[08:19] <SlimeyPete> hmm... anyone had trouble installing the nvidia drivers in Feisty? The nvidia driver is saying it lacks a Device section for one or other of my cards even though there is a section for each in xorg.conf
[08:19] <faceface> cake whole... hmmm.
[08:19] <PriceChild> !feisty | SlimeyPete

[08:19] <tts>  lspci: http://pastebin.ca/409438
[08:19] <SlimeyPete> oh right, sorry
[08:20] <pike_> SlimeyPete: shame on you!
[08:20] <bluecat9> Q: How do i add a "drive" to "Computer"? ("drive" being: /etc/hdb1 mounted to /mnt/hd2 in fstab)
[08:20] <Afief> bofh80: oh i did this this weekend:D turned out he had got his winXP PC to an unusable state, now it's only used as a gateway for the linux box(driverless adsl modem :-( )
[08:20] <faceface> soundray, OK, its working, but strange that the syntax of the region selection is different in display and convert... oh well
[08:20] <anders__> hey i have ubuntu badger! i have to apt-get upgrade, its old! but i can't because it says Couldn't stat source package list  ..........
[08:20] <kalpik> anders__, a clean install would be much better :P
[08:21] <bluefox83> bluecat9, you don't add the drives to anything, it just shows the filesystem as a whole
[08:21] <tts>  faceface: has lspci left ?
[08:21] <kgrad> so I'm trying to get TV-OUT working on my Radeon 7000/VE.  I've compiled some drivers and changed my xorg.conf accordingly with no luck.  Even if i have tv-out connected at boot time, i don't see anything.  does anyone think this could be the problem?
[08:21] <pike_> anders__: id consider dist-upgrading a version or 2 at a time to breezy then dapper
[08:21] <faceface> tts, don't knwo
[08:21] <KurtKraut> anders__, I do agree with kalpik ... upgrading from such an old version, it would be better do a clean install.
[08:21] <faceface> tts, did you paste what he asked
[08:22] <faceface> ping lspci
[08:22] <tts> yeh about twenty times
[08:22] <faceface> tts, he is gone man
[08:22] <faceface> sorry dude
[08:22] <soundray> faceface: I don't think display is intended to be used with crop. You can select a region with the mouse once you have an image open in display.
[08:22] <bofh80> i have to disable desktop effects for my opengl games to function properly :P is this normal with compiz and beryl?
[08:22] <faceface> soundray, ok
[08:22] <bluecat9> bluefox83, so, once mounted, it should show up in "Computer" under filesystem?
[08:22] <x387> how to extend gcc search path for header files (string.h to be precise..)
[08:22] <KurtKraut> bofh80, yes, it is.
[08:22] <x387> export ??
[08:22] <PriceChild> bofh80, #ubuntu-effects
[08:23] <bofh80> KurtKraut, cool. just so i know, now i need to make an easier shortcut :P
[08:23] <KurtKraut> bofh80, I dont know for sure if there is a hack to fix that, but this is a normal behaviour.
[08:23] <bluefox83> bluecat9, pretty much, when you click on filesystems it'll take you to / and you can look for it from there
[08:23] <anders__> ok thanks
[08:23] <_jason> x387: have you installed build-essential?
[08:23] <KurtKraut> bofh80, as PriceChild said, address this kind of questions to #ubuntu-effects
[08:23] <bluecat9> bluefox83, but it's a second hard disk.. why can't I have it displayed as one? :)
[08:24] <bluefox83> bluecat9, i dunno, could be because it's mounted to the main filesystem...
[08:24] <soundray> x387: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH -- but it sounds to me like you haven't installed headers or build-essential or either.
[08:24] <matrix> hi, i just upgraded to feisty
[08:24] <bofh80> thx PriceChild i'll check there.   KurtKraut  thx for info
[08:24] <soundray> matrix: chat about it in #ubuntu+1
[08:24] <x387> soundray: I have that package installed
[08:24] <KurtKraut> bofh80, you're welcom
[08:24] <bluefox83> bluecat9, you could try changing the mount point to something easier like /d2
[08:24] <tts> can any one please have a look at my menulist file ?   http://pastebin.ca/409438

[08:25] <bluefox83> bluecat9, i dunno, i gave up on ntfs and fat a long time before i switched to ubuntu
[08:25] <faceface> tts, and does /dev/sda3 occur in your output of df?
[08:26] <soundray> x387: doesn't it search for headers in the library path as well? I may be wrong.
[08:26] <bluecat9> bluefox83, ok. thank you for your help! :)
[08:26] <bluefox83> bluecat9, no problem
[08:26] <faceface> tts, hrm...
[08:26] <tts>  faceface:  /dev/sda3             94806124  38859472  51130768  44% /media/ubuntu
[08:26] <faceface> tts, oh
[08:26] <tts> i have mounted it to get to the menu list file
[08:27] <faceface> tts, ok
[08:27] <x387> x387:  I guess no... But I have a strange probem, "#include <asm/io.h>" includes string.h and it fails to find "/usr/include/asm-i386/io.h:4:26: error: linux/string.h"
[08:27] <x387> I have /usr/include/string.h
[08:28] <bluecat9> bluefox83, I'm just going to copy the contents from her second hd (ntfs) to the primary hd, home dir. :)
[08:28] <faceface> tts, and what does ... parted say?
[08:28] <faceface> partd
[08:28] <tts>  faceface:want a sceen shot of parted ?
[08:28] <bluefox83> bluecat9, careful with that, you could totally fubar all that data...
[08:28] <_emet_> hi
[08:28] <kingcobra> how do i make a keyboard shortcut to an administration tool like system monitor
[08:28] <_emet_> I use ubuntu
[08:29] <faceface> tts, can you try partition magic?
[08:29] <x387> The string.h is being searched in "/usr/local/include/linux/string.h"
[08:29] <bluecat9> bluefox83, orly? o_O
[08:29] <kingcobra> faceface, can you use partition magic in linux

[08:34] <KurtKraut> rickyfingers, just for my curiosity... why you chrooted Fx ?
[08:34] <tunganet> jrib: what did you want me to do with /etc/apt/sources.list??
[08:34] <tts> faceface: i have too mutch to loose if i reinstall , :(

[08:34] <jrib> tunganet: open it in a text editor, then copy and paste the contents to the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:34] <rickyfingers> KurtKraut: because I'm running 64 bit kernel, but I need to run 32 bit firefox so I can use flash plugin.

[08:39] <KurtKraut> sluimers, this 9 dependencies... have you checked if they exists as packages in the Ubuntu repository ?
[08:39] <tunganet> jrib: and what will i lose upon doing this?

[08:40] <tts>  faceface:i think the best way to sort this is to install another os on the free space it will then install grub the correct way  ! :)
[08:40] <KurtKraut> sluimers, first of all... what you are trying to install :
[08:40] <ThaNerd> hi! i have a little problem with some files on my http server. i fiddled with some chmod, and it seems now apache can't read some of them... anyone could help?
[08:40] <KurtKraut> sluimers, ?
[08:40] <sluimers> cedega
[08:40] <jrib> tunganet: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*        that should take care of it.  You will lose the errors and nothing more after using the new generated sources.list
[08:40] <faceface> tts, or ask on ##linux or wait for #grub...
[08:40] <faceface> put all the details in one paste and ask for help
[08:41] <faceface> bye now ...
[08:41] <faceface> bbl
[08:41] <sluimers> that is, someone took the the cedega source code compiled it and put it in an rpm
[08:41] <ammiel> im having troubles mounting a dvd, can anyone help me?
[08:41] <tunganet> jrib: ok they are removed, how do i use the generated one
[08:41] <anders__> i have to upgrade  my ubuntu, and was suggested to start fresh because i run badger (5.10), but should i go for the edgy or feisty?
[08:41] <KurtKraut> sluimers, I think that probably it has a .deb package
[08:42] <sluimers> deb packages are better?
[08:42] <jrib> tunganet: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list     will open up a text editor with nothing in it.  Just paste the new one in there, save, close your editor and run 'sudo apt-get update'
[08:42] <KurtKraut> anders__, Edgy. Feisty is not released yet and should be not be used in a daily basis.
[08:42] <anders__> ok thanks
[08:42] <KurtKraut> sluimers, not that they are better... they are fully compatible to Ubuntu.
[08:42] <pip> Hello
[08:42] <sluimers> okay, I'll download the deb package from the site then
[08:42] <tunganet> jrib: and i should use the default repositories right?

[08:43] <bluefox83> emet, try #xchat
[08:43] <jrib> tunganet: right, any custom ones you want, you can add to the end.  For example, I saw you had the beryl ones in your paste

[08:49] <gopp> hey
[08:49] <rob_> just got rtorrent installed, but im getting incredibly poor speeds (no more than 12kb?) for a very healthy torrent. what kind of things can i check?
[08:49] <tunganet> jrib: i found the synaptic window and closed it and did the apt-get update. it finished clean
[08:49] <gopp> any here used a pdc in ubuntu
[08:49] <jrib> tunganet: great, you should be set then
[08:49] <gopp> I got it to log me in the pdc, but I get profile not found
[08:49] <lubolo> let's go to speak in english
[08:49] <gopp> when login in via an xp box
[08:50] <tunganet> jrib: ok, i'll do the easyubuntu again :D
[08:50] <kbrooks> Do you support wubi? just curious, and no I don't have a question
[08:50] <crdlb> rob_, if behind a router, you may need to forward some ports
[08:50] <godtvisken> I have a keyboard that has keys like play, pause, next song, previous song, volume.. the volume, mute, and play work, but the pause and next/previous song do not (this is with the program rhythm box). what should I try?
[08:50] <sluimers> errr.... okay, I mistook something for having a deb file, so there's only an rpm file
[08:50] <titun> Can someone tell me why downloading Ubuntu 6.10 failing from any mirrors from this page http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/downloadmirrors
[08:50] <rob_> crdlb: cheers, but i think it is fully setup
[08:50] <ferronica> ;
[08:51] <sluimers> I'm able to look into the rpm file and takes the files out though
[08:51] <titun> It starts downloading, then stops saying file not found
[08:52] <rob_> crdlb: any other ideas?
[08:52] <crdlb> rob_, nope, rtorrent is always really fast for me
[08:52] <crdlb> sorry
[08:52] <KurtKraut> sluimers, dont mess up with RPM files. You should use .deb files in Ubuntu-like systems.
[08:52] <rob_> grr
[08:53] <sluimers> okay
[08:53] <kbrooks> KurtKraut, debian and ubuntu-like systems
[08:53] <sluimers> well, there are no deb files, so I guess that's it huh?
[08:53] <bruenig> sluimers, get the source
[08:53] <titun> did anyone notice my question ??
[08:53] <titun> downloading Ubuntu 6.10 failing from any mirrors from this page http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/downloadmirrors

[09:01] <alenewtoubuntu> 2

[09:02] <alenewtoubuntu> it's a custom made
[09:02] <kingcobra> jrib, i cant see anything apps/metacity that links to system monitor
[09:02] <emet> oh
[09:02] <alenewtoubuntu> everything works fine
[09:02] <emet> ummmmmmm
[09:02] <dolemite0> ifconfig down and then ifconfig up doesn't force it to refresh to get an ip
[09:02] <ikonia> Andeh: don't talk about pirating software
[09:02] <eth01> how can i install bitlbee on ubuntu ?
[09:02] <Andeh> you are
[09:02] <matthew1429> I'm obviously a noob... when feisty comes out is it better to do a wipe and fresh install or is it seamless to upgrade from edgy?
[09:02] <ikonia> dolemite0: its not meant to
[09:02] <alenewtoubuntu> but i can't get to configure my pci wifi card
[09:02] <KurtKraut> eth01, you can install it from Synaptic
[09:02] <emet> oh
[09:02] <alenewtoubuntu> to my acess point
[09:02] <Andeh> You dont expect me to buy Norton Ghost to use linux, do you?
[09:02] <emet> it's probably broadcom
[09:02] <ikonia> matthew1429: its better to not install until its stable
[09:02] <eth01> whats the command
[09:02] <titun> KurtKraut: thanks, firefox doing this right, hopefully my win box will be converted to a Edgy box tomorrow
[09:03] <alenewtoubuntu> it is
[09:03] <ikonia> Andeh: I don't care
[09:03] <dolemite0> what can i do to refresh an ip then?
[09:03] <jrib> kingcobra: you found the directory with a bunch of "command_*" keys?
[09:03] <robdeman> wherse the sendmail logfile?
[09:03] <Andeh> I meant are there any linux programs to backup entire drives/partitions?
[09:03] <emet> broadcom is not work well with linux
[09:03] <emet> but
[09:03] <ikonia> dolemite0: restart your dhcp client
[09:03] <KurtKraut> titun, I'm happy to hear that :P

[09:03] <alenewtoubuntu> yeah i had a look at that page already
[09:03] <emet> wifi should work out of the box
[09:03] <ikonia> Andeh: you can use dd to do it
[09:03] <emet> but somtimes does not
[09:03] <arpegius> i set up ubuntu with a wireless connection. i've now got it wired. how do i see if it knows my ethernet card and then enable it?
[09:03] <emet> cause of bad driver
[09:03] <alenewtoubuntu> the thing is that the system can see the card
[09:03] <emet> broadcom has bad drivers
[09:03] <Andeh> what is dd, and will dd store a windows partition?
[09:04] <Andeh> with registry?
[09:04] <dolemite0> with /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server start ?
[09:04] <emet> you might need

[09:04] <greig_> Ah folks, after ages of not being able to get my ubuntu install loaded, and spending ages on xserverm i finally got it all back and working, and i decided, bin xp:) i know its not related to anything,but i had to let it out
[09:05] <Andeh> dd can backup multiple partitions at the same time?
[09:05] <ikonia> Andeh: I've told you its "block by block" so it doesn't care abou the data
[09:05] <Cyyni1> i'm having a gnome boot problem with one account, but not with a fresh account, anyone know how i fix my primary account?
[09:05] <jrib> kingcobra: yes, you would choose one, let's say "command_1" and put your command.  For system-monitor, it is "gnome-system-monitor".  Then go the other directory that elts you set keybindings and for "run_command_1" you put whatever you want
[09:05] <ThaNerd> anyone used to chmod and apache?
[09:05] <emet> avoid ati and broadcom
[09:05] <emet> !evilhardware
[09:05] <Andeh> Sorry, i am new to this. What's "block by block"?
[09:05] <ikonia> ThaNerd: whats
[09:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about evilhardware - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:05] <emet> !hardware
[09:05] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[09:05] <ikonia> Andeh: as I said your not at a level to be able to understand/do this
[09:05] <alenewtoubuntu> emet: why can i see the card  in system>admin>networking but i can't find the hotspots?
[09:05] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: is it open network?
[09:05] <kingcobra> jrib, great thanks
[09:06] <Andeh> ikonia: Darn. Any automated or GUI prog's that do similar/same things?
[09:06] <ThaNerd> ikonia: i goofed with chmod, and now apache has no access to some files of my website... but i'm a noob ;-)
[09:06] <alenewtoubuntu> nope it's wpa2
[09:06] <ikonia> Andeh: no
[09:06] <winchester> Hey, can someone help me? When you enter a command in the 'open with' thing.... is there a tag you can use for the filename?
[09:06] <ikonia> ThaNerd: chmod them back then
[09:06] <Andeh> ikonia: Ok, so what would be the best choice?
[09:06] <zeddicus2> what's the best tools for developing c/c++ on ubuntu?
[09:06] <ikonia> Andeh: buy ghost
[09:06] <winchester>  for exampe if you need to open something with some extra tags after the file name
[09:06] <Sayers> I get this error with apt : E: Archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing.
[09:06] <gopp> zeddicus2 !anjuta
[09:06] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: my girlfriend computer has same problem
[09:06] <kane77> is there a program for sharing system resources?
[09:06] <ThaNerd> ikonia: i don't know what files or directories should be chmoded to
[09:06] <emet> and I think
[09:06] <Andeh> ikonia: So ghost will backup the whole drive and be able to put it onto a new one?
[09:06] <emet> it has something to do with broadcom
[09:06] <gopp> zeddicus2 gcc
[09:07] <alenewtoubuntu> mmmmh
[09:07] <emet> linux drivers are broken for broadcom I think
[09:07] <zeddicus2> gcc is the compiler
[09:07] <ikonia> Andeh: yes, but ubuntu may need reconfiguring if you put the drive into a different machine or add additional drives to the new machine
[09:07] <alenewtoubuntu> ok
[09:07] <emet> you need nidiswrapper
[09:07] <ikonia> ThaNerd: what files did you chmod ?
[09:07] <missy> hey! Im having problems with GTK-Gnutella the program will not open
[09:07] <emet> ndiswrapper
[09:07] <missy> any suggestions?
[09:07] <emet> it let you run the windows driver for broadcom
[09:07] <zeddicus2> gopp: can u compile with anjuta?
[09:07] <Andeh> ikonia: Ok. Reconfiguring as in it will start or as in it will crash and im stuck with a terminal :)?
[09:07] <ThaNerd> ikonia: a whole folder indeed
[09:07] <alenewtoubuntu> emet: do you know where can i see a list of all my pc cards in ubuntu?
[09:07] <kane77> zeddicus2, yes
[09:07] <ikonia> Andeh: will not boot
[09:07] <emet> yes
[09:07] <winchester> and what's the manual way to edit file associations?
[09:08] <ikonia> ThaNerd: so change the whole folder back
[09:08] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: "lspci"
[09:08] <Andeh> ikonia: Crap. And "reconfiguring" is at my "level to do this"?
[09:08] <dobby_> why are movies embed into firefox not working, yet i have mozilla-mplayer can anyone help me?
[09:08] <alenewtoubuntu> sorry emet i'm quite a dummie with linux
[09:08] <ikonia> Andeh: to be honest, I wouldn't bother, its less hassle to re-install
[09:08] <alenewtoubuntu> is it a terminal command?
[09:08] <emet> yeah
[09:08] <ThaNerd> ikonia: but what octal numver should i use? files are owned by thanerd:www, and apache is user-www
[09:08] <emet> it list all pci devices
[09:08] <lontra> if i just did a fresh install of ubuntu dapper and i want to upgrade to edgy do i need to install all the updates before upgrading?
[09:08] <emet> hence ls pci
[09:08] <alenewtoubuntu> cool
[09:08] <emet> lspci
[09:08] <ikonia> ThaNerd: 751
[09:09] <crdlb> dobby_, did you install w32codecs ?
[09:09] <alenewtoubuntu> i'll try it straight away
[09:09] <lontra> or can i just upgrade the update-manager
[09:09] <ikonia> lontra: no
[09:09] <dobby_> crdlb, nope
[09:09] <ikonia> lontra: just update
[09:09] <lontra> ikonia: thanks!
[09:09] <W4RP3D> hi i need help with Ubuntu V6.06 LTS can somebody help me ..... im trying to boot from the live cd..but it shows me some weird caracters..saying that Xserver could not be loaded because it is not configured
[09:09] <kingcobra> jrib, what is the delete key called
[09:09] <dobby_> crdlb, and hi again, where can i get the codecs
[09:09] <winchester> ok.... guess this channel is too busy
[09:09] <crdlb> !w32codecs | dobby_
[09:09] <ubotu> dobby_: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[09:09] <missy> anyone? GTK help?!
[09:09] <Andeh> ikonia: so my best bet would be to copy my linux stuff like pictures / gimp files into a folder on my windows partition then use a windows backup software like DriveImage or Norton Ghost?
[09:09] <Andeh> Cause that would be the easiest way i can think of.
[09:09] <kingcobra> jrib, delete Delete del ?
[09:09] <faceface> W4RP3D, sounds bad - what is your monitor?
[09:09] <ThaNerd> ikonia: and directories?
[09:09] <lontra> ikonia: "gksudo update-manager -c -d"  ?
[09:09] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: you can pipe commands
[09:09] <jrib> kingcobra: I don't know.  What you can do is use system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts to set a shortcut for some other thing you don't care about and then see how it looks in gconf-editor
[09:09] <ikonia> Andeh: sounds reasonable
[09:09] <faceface> winchester, state problem again?
[09:09] <emet> like this
[09:10] <ikonia> ThaNerd: the same
[09:10] <alenewtoubuntu> i have it: "texas instruments acx 111 54mbps wireless interface"
[09:10] <emet> lspci | grep broadcom
[09:10] <dobby_> crdlb, how do i get them? like do i have to use the terminal?
[09:10] <emet> oh
[09:10] <ThaNerd> ikonia: thanks
[09:10] <emet> hmm
[09:10] <Andeh> ikonia: Thanks a lot!
[09:10] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: can you see open networks ?
[09:10] <winchester> faceface: trying to make a fille association so that I can add on tags after the file name... if that's possible.
[09:10] <W4RP3D> faceface it's a Dell Monitor
[09:10] <crdlb> dobby_, you need to add the repository at that link to your sources.list
[09:10] <alenewtoubuntu> no, i can't see any network
[09:10] <Andeh> Just ONE more thing, windows wont die if it suddenly finds itself on a larger drive?
[09:10] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: what version of ubuntu
[09:10] <faceface> winchester, file associations are qutie 'windows'
[09:10] <alenewtoubuntu> although i know from my mac there are quite a few
[09:10] <Amon_Re> Feisty must hate me :(
[09:10] <ikonia> Andeh: no idea, it may
[09:10] <alenewtoubuntu> last version available
[09:10] <dobby_> crdlb, and how do i do that? im new to all this stuff
[09:10] <emet> edgy
[09:11] <emet> ok
[09:11] <emet> ummm
[09:11] <alenewtoubuntu> it was 6.10 i believe
[09:11] <andre_pl> faceface: how do you figure?
[09:11] <kingcobra> jrib, ill try that thanx
[09:11] <Andeh> ikonia: Ok, thanks for all the help. Bye
[09:11] <faceface> W4RP3D, google the make and monitor and 'ubuntu live cd'
[09:11] <andre_pl> faceface: KDE and gnome both have "file associations"
[09:11] <faceface> andre_pl, ignorance on my part
[09:11] <winchester> faceface: well.... the default applications that the file is opened with >.>
[09:11] <W4RP3D> faceface ????
[09:11] <emet> try ...
[09:11] <mjr> m24
[09:11] <faceface> andre_pl, but they are not relly a linux trhing
[09:11] <faceface> thing
[09:11] <crdlb> dobby_, /join #crdlb
[09:11] <zeddicus2> i'm in anjuta now, i wrote a simple c program and saved it as .c , how do i compile it using anjuta?
[09:11] <faceface> winchester, OK, should be possible
[09:11] <faceface> W4RP3D, google the make and model of the monitor and 'ubuntu live cd'  and look for bugs
[09:12] <andre_pl> winchester: i missed the question, but if you're using gnome, the proper way to set a file association is to right-click on the file and go to the "oppen with" tab.. the choice wil aply to all fles of tha ttype
[09:12] <faceface> W4RP3D, known bugs
[09:12] <W4RP3D> faceface why would it be the monitor ?
[09:12] <Jaymac> When I was doing an upgrade to Feisty beta it broke my wireless... my linux-restricted-modules-generic says it depends on linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-13-generic
[09:12] <alenewtoubuntu> emet: ?
[09:12] <faceface> winchester, talk to andre_pl he can help you
[09:12] <Jaymac> so i uninstalled it
[09:12] <Jaymac> and now i can't reinstall...
[09:12] <winchester> andre_pl: yeah, but if I need to add extra tags after the filename
[09:12] <faceface> W4RP3D, if the live cd fails starting X - its prolly the monitor
[09:13] <Cyyni1> anyone know how i can fix one user account in gnome? something is configured wrong and it causes my monitor to give an "out of range" error, but a fresh account has no problem... any ideas?
[09:13] <gopp> !pdc
[09:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pdc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:13] <winchester> andre_pl: like matlab -r open ("filename") if that's possible
[09:13] <Jaymac> i can't find the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-13-generic package - synaptic only has 2.6.20-12-generic
[09:13] <gopp> any one here setup a pdc samba share
[09:13] <Sayers> anyone know how to fix this ; E: Archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing.
[09:13] <faceface> Cyyni1, a .xserver file in the home directory of the user?
[09:13] <ThaNerd> ikonia: now i can't ls anymore in some folder...
[09:13] <zeddicus2> !anjuta
[09:13] <ubotu> anjuta: A GNOME development IDE, for C/C++. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.2-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 1494 kB, installed size 3760 kB
[09:13] <mEck0> Have somebody used mysql administrator here?
[09:13] <andre_pl> winchester: i'm sure it is.  just not sure th easiest way to do it. but if you're comfortable whipping up a quick shell script would do it for you.
[09:13] <Jaymac> anyone got any suggestions?
[09:13] <unholy> Hi folks. Could someone tell me if it's possible to insert a PCMCIA device upside-down in the slot? My two devices each rise up for the last inch. My two slots are flush together so they wont fit this way.
[09:14] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: try this
[09:14] <Cyyni1> faceface: would i delete it?
[09:14] <ikonia> ThaNerd: that impossible if you did 751
[09:14] <Amon_Re> unholy: no you can't
[09:14] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[09:14] <faceface> Cyyni1, no - inspect it
[09:14] <ThaNerd> ikonia: but i did sudo chmod and now i can't LS in that dir...
[09:14] <Amon_Re> Does anyone inhere know much about the workings of initramfs?
[09:14] <unholy> okay, thanks Amon_Re.
[09:14] <faceface> is it similar / different to the one the working user has? use diff file 1 file 2
[09:14] <andre_pl> winchester: make a script that takes just the filename as an argument and have it run the command the way it needs to run...
[09:14] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: then type "wifi-radar"
[09:14] <Cyyni1> faceface: ok, i'll take a gander, thanks
[09:14] <ikonia> ThaNerd: that impossible if you did 751
[09:14] <winchester> andre_pl: ok suppose I'll do that... thanks a lot
[09:15] <kestaz> where can i find docs of programs ?

[09:16] <missy> gtk help please?!
[09:16] <andre_pl> winchester: it may also be possible to simply add those options to the default matlab launcher, but i'm not sure how to go about that, or if it can be done at all.

[09:17] <andre_pl> faceface: I tried for months to get it to work, and I'm no noob... with feisty it works out of the box, no configuration at all.

[09:19] <Cyyni1> faceface: i can't find a file .xserver, but i found .xsession-errors and xorg.conf.new...?

[09:21] <andre_pl> alenewtoubuntu: I haven't' followed your questions much, and I have no idea what your situation is, but if you're missing 'apt' and you dont know why, i'd just reinstall. :P
[09:22] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: i just said i got a terminal error message
[09:22] <alenewtoubuntu> andre_pl: tnx!

[09:22] <W4RP3D> faceface guesse thats the problem.. this computer is fucked up lol
[09:22] <johnficc1> does the lirc how-to in the community wiki work for 64 bit ubuntu?
[09:22] <xMorgawr> a question about apt.. is it better than Synaptics? or do they do the same thing?

[09:22] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, command not found ... i.e. I don't have apt
[09:22] <zeddicus2> alenewtoubuntu: if u got internet connection with the ubuntu you're trying to connect to wpa2, just use add/remove programs->internet->and select network-manager
[09:22] <gtc_laptop_> faceface: I have servername set fine, but I need it to be servername.domain.com (I'm missing the domain.com)
[09:22] <W4RP3D> faceface didnt try..ill try it tonight.. on my own pc
[09:22] <faceface> gtc_laptop_, hold on
[09:22] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: anyway, i got another error message now, when i type sudo before
[09:22] <Andeh> Hello again
[09:23] <Andeh> I decided to use PartImage

[09:23] <xMorgawr> a question about apt.. is it better than Synaptics? or do they do the same thing?
[09:23] <bruenig> !info network-manager-gnome
[09:23] <W4RP3D> but faceface is ubuntu very different from the other releases? cause i already tried Mandrake , Mandriva...

[09:23] <Sayers> I just got this error RNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
[09:23] <faceface> gtc_laptop_, /etc/hostname ?
[09:23] <Shaba1> guy I just started a live cd
[09:23] <soundray> kingcobra: thank you, I've got it and it's taught me something. When you said you didn't have a 'lo' interface, it should have rung an alarm bell.
[09:23] <Sayers> WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!***
[09:23] <Shaba1> and I got two icons
[09:23] <faceface> W4RP3D, no, its built on debian
[09:23] <kingcobra> jrib, try changin shortcut for show desktop
[09:23] <bruenig> Sayers, your third party repos, you need to either get the key or go with the authentication warnings
[09:23] <Andeh> Could i use PartImage to copy my whole drive or just the seperate partitions seperately??
[09:23] <Shaba1> on was like a hardisk labled install
[09:23] <eth01> how do i install bitlbee is there a package??
[09:23] <W4RP3D> faceface ok...cause im a windows user... and i wanna try ubuntu..got 10 cds shipped free :P
[09:24] <rickyfingers_> ok everyone, I think I figured out why chroot'd firefox wasn't starting properly - I was changing the wrong /etc/fstab
[09:24] <gtc_laptop_> faceface: OK, so put the FQDN there and Ubuntu will figure it out?
[09:24] <Sayers> bruenig: Where do I get this 'key'
[09:24] <bruenig> !info bitlbee
[09:24] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, go on then... tell us your message...
[09:24] <ubotu> bitlbee: An IRC to other chat networks gateway. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.3-1 (edgy), package size 297 kB, installed size 768 kB
[09:24] <kingcobra> soundray, great i love to learn and help others if i can at all
[09:24] <Cyyni1> faceface: it's spouting off about BadWindow (invalid window parameter) 3 etc. is there somewhere i should dump the output?
[09:24] <Shaba1> the other was labeled examples. I clicked on that and got a windwo with a bunch of icons
[09:24] <rickyfingers_> it's the non chroot'd /etc/fstab that must be changed.
[09:24] <Shaba1> what is that?
[09:24] <bruenig> Sayers, it should be on the same site you got the repo line from
[09:24] <bluefox83> W4RP3D, why so many?
[09:24] <Andeh> I "compressed" my NTFS aswell. Could i back that up too?
[09:24] <xMorgawr> a question about apt.. is it better than Synaptics? or do they do the same thing?
[09:24] <bruenig> eth01, make sure you have universe enabled and sudo apt-get install bitlbee
[09:24] <alenewtoubuntu> zeddicus2: basically i can't install it because i can't access internet
[09:24] <gtc_laptop_> faceface: man hostname is a bit confusing on this.
[09:24] <W4RP3D> bluefox83 lol thats what i received... 8 cds for pc 32 bits... 1 for pc 64 bits... 1 for Mac
[09:25] <eth01> how do i enable universe?
[09:25] <bluefox83> xMorgawr, apt is the backend to synaptic...
[09:25] <Arafel> I was wondering, does anyone know if Ubuntu supports the SIL 3114 sata raid drivers thru dmraid?
[09:25] <Sayers> bruenig: Long story short I am using apt-get and on the offical packages it gives me that. I deleted the wrong folder, now fixed it , but I need the 'master key'
[09:25] <greig_> can someone help me with an audio issue please
[09:25] <faceface> gtc_laptop_, I don't know ... I don't find it
[09:25] <xMorgawr> bluefox83 so they do the same thing basicly?
[09:25] <kingcobra> jrib, it was <Control><Alt>d for me and i changed it to <Control><Alt>Delete in gnome gui keyboard shortcuts
[09:25] <gtc_laptop_> faceface, :)
[09:25] <faceface> Cyyni1, nah - forget it
[09:25] <bruenig> eth01, sudo sed -i 's/# deb/deb/' /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install bitlbee
[09:25] <bluefox83> W4RP3D, wow...i always just burned a copy of whatever version of ubuntu i wanted to cd, then restarted and installed...
[09:25] <greig_> does the master audio option actually control any sound function?
[09:25] <soundray> xMorgawr: synaptics is a front-end to the packaging system, as are aptitude and the apt-* command line tools. You can mix and match, use whatever feels most appropriate to the task at hand.
[09:25] <bruenig> Sayers, deleted the wrong folder narrows it down
[09:25] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: thanks for your patience, I think I found my way through Add remove program>internet>network manager
[09:26] <W4RP3D> bluefox83 lol me...they shipped me ten cds no charges...
[09:26] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: it's just that i can't install networkmanager coz i'm not connected to the internet
[09:26] <faceface> gtc_laptop_, /etc/hostname or /etc/hosts or /etc/host.conf or /etc/netork/...
[09:26] <Cyyni1> faceface, is there some way for me to reset that users configuration to get rid of the errors? this new user seems to be working fine
[09:26] <gtc_laptop_> faceface: Perhaps /etc/resolv.conf
[09:26] <xMorgawr> soundray: i see.. so there is no significant difference... k thanks XD
[09:26] <bluefox83> xMorgawr, synaptic is a gui front-end for apt. it's a great tool and i suggest that anyone new to ubuntu get to know it well
[09:26] <kingcobra> jrib, doesnt show up in apps/metacity/global_keybindings
[09:26] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, oops!
[09:26] <W4RP3D> bluefox83 https://shipit.ubuntu.com/myrequest :P
[09:26] <IgorSobreira> hey...anybody knows what plugins should i get to atch dvd in totem.....?
[09:26] <Arafel> Does anyone know if ubuntu supports the SIL 3114 sata raid drivers?
[09:26] <jrib> kingcobra: what doesn't show up?
[09:26] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: what's up?
[09:27] <andre_pl> IgorSobreira: google "restrctedfomats" and hit "I'm feeling lucky"
[09:27] <faceface> Cyyni1, one of the ".files" in common between the two users has a key difference
[09:27] <kingcobra> jrib, can ya read back my last few posts to ya
[09:27] <xMorgawr> bluefox83 yeah i'm kinda new with ubuntu and i think synaptic (and the whole package thing) is the best thing i've seen so far.. ;)
[09:27] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, well... if you can't install network manager, you are in a bad position
[09:27] <Andeh> What does SFDisk do, and could i backup a whole drive/data/partitions with it?
[09:27] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, you need to install that and the wpa libraries
[09:27] <Sayers> bruenig: I deleted the /var/cache/apt/archives folder I believe it's called
[09:27] <jrib> kingcobra: I read them, I don't know what "what" refers to
[09:27] <Jaymac> does anyone else have the latest linux kernel as: 2.6.20-13 but the latest linux restricted modules as 2.6.20-12 thus rendering restricted-modules uninstallable?
[09:27] <bruenig> Sayers, that shouldn' cause any problems
[09:27] <killux> how would i replace ALSA with OSS?
[09:27] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, can you temporarily set your router to wep, connect and install stuff?
[09:28] <Sayers> bruenig: I got apt-get working again just it doesnt verify anything
[09:28] <bruenig> Sayers, so long as you remake it
[09:28] <jrib> kingcobra: erm, I mean I don't know what exactly is sn't showing up
[09:28] <bluefox83> xMorgawr, i've had people who used mac OSX tell me it's better than OSX's setup cus it's more to the point
[09:28] <Jaymac> (in feisty)
[09:28] <bruenig> Sayers, all that holds are the archived debs, doesn't deal with authentication
[09:28] <Sayers> bruenig: well nothing is verify-ed
[09:28] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: can it not be that i'm not able to do these things because i'm booting ubuntu just from cd without having installed it?
[09:28] <IgorSobreira> hey...anybody knows what plugins should i get to watch dvd in totem.....?
[09:28] <bruenig> Sayers, well cause and effect isn't working out here
[09:28] <Sayers> bruenig: That's what I thought
[09:28] <faceface> gtc_laptop_, more /etc/resolv.conf ... "domain test"
[09:28] <soundray> !faq > IgorSobreira, please read the private message from ubotu
[09:28] <xMorgawr> bluefox83 i've never used mac OSX honestly, i've just seen it in pictures.. and i find ubuntu really easy with a friendly interface, ;) it's perfect
[09:28] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, indeed
[09:28] <killux> how would i replace ALSA with OSS?
[09:29] <eth01> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[09:29] <eth01> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[09:29] <eth01> any1 know?
[09:29] <faceface> gtc_laptop_, I set my domain to test in the gui, and that is what I get
[09:29] <killux> sudo
[09:29] <faceface> eth01, sudo
[09:29] <killux> eth01
[09:29] <faceface> sudo !!!!
[09:29] <eth01> ok
[09:29] <eth01> :O
[09:29] <eth01> lol
[09:29] <faceface> for gods sake man!
[09:29] <faceface> ;)
[09:29] <bruenig> faceface, it is probably that he has synaptic open actually
[09:29] <soundray> faceface: you again
[09:29] <kingcobra> jrib, the change of keyboard shortcut in gconf  apps/metacity/global_keybindings
[09:29] <faceface> killux, not so easy
[09:29] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: cool, i'll install it and see what happens
[09:29] <Andeh> Could i backup an entire drive (partitions/data/registry) using Sfdisk??
[09:29] <gtc_laptop_> faceface: I think /etc/hosts worked.  See hostname --help.  Thanks!!
[09:29] <killux> faceface, do you play css on linux?
[09:29] <soundray> killux: what's the problem you are trying to solve?
[09:29] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, hopefully better feature set ;)
[09:30] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: am i right in saying that with ubuntu wifi should work out of the box?
[09:30] <killux> CSS will only work with OSS
[09:30] <faceface> killux, css?
[09:30] <Jaymac> can someone please tell me if there is a linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-13-generic package anywhere???
[09:30] <killux> counter strike source
[09:30] <killux> a game
[09:30] <kbrooks> Kill_X, oss = ?
[09:30] <jrib> kingcobra: what keyboard shortcut?
[09:30] <kingcobra> jrib,  i changed shortcut for show desktop  in gnome gui keyboard shortcuts
[09:30] <faceface> alenewtoubuntu, I am not an expert... it worked for me with network manager and some tweeking...
[09:30] <SirBob1701> has anyone started to incounter sound problems recently?  After I login ubuntu refuses to play any sound
[09:30] <faceface> killux, nah, never played it
[09:30] <bluefox83> xMorgawr, i wouldn't say perfect, but it's getting better and better just about every day, it's moving forward in leaps and bounds...before i used ubuntu i used debian linux, and it seemed to stand still when updates were concerned, compared to ubuntu...
[09:30] <faceface> soundray, ? ;)
[09:30] <alenewtoubuntu> faceface: roger that
[09:31] <faceface> thanks alenewtoubuntu :D
[09:31] <soundray> faceface: invoking deities is inappropriate here
[09:31] <faceface> gtc_laptop_, cool
[09:31] <eth01> kubuntu doesnt have bitlbee installed?
[09:31] <Jaymac> please?
[09:31] <jrib> kingcobra: I don't know where that one is, that's why I suggested volume up
[09:31] <kingcobra> jrib, i cant get gconf to change shortcuts
 faceface: invoking deities is inappropriate here # huh
[09:31] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: #  Texas Instruments ACX-100 chip based AND # Texas Instruments ACX-111 chip based
[09:31] <faceface> oh... for the love of peet!
[09:31] <Amon_Re> Argh
[09:31] <Amon_Re> i hate initramfs
[09:31] <faceface> kbrooks, don't deify me!
[09:32] <xMorgawr> bluefox83 well.. obviously not perfect ;) but this is my first experience with linux os and so far i thought it would've been harder.. i've heard a lot of things about linux and how unfriendly it can be but now i dont' believe in them anymore
[09:32] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: two chipsets notable for poor linux support
[09:32] <alenewtoubuntu> emet: are they?
[09:32] <emet> http://www.leenooks.com/Wifi <-- wifi blacklist
[09:32] <emet> yah
[09:32] <kbrooks> faceface, "deify"?
[09:32] <soundray> Jaymac: there is no -13- package yet
[09:32] <kingcobra> thing about volume is it isnt in /apps/metacity/global_keybindings
[09:32] <faceface> deify... to make a god
[09:32] <kingcobra> jrib,
[09:32] <alenewtoubuntu> emet: why can i see them in the cards list in admin?
[09:32] <esperegu> anybody knows the command for 'System > Preferences > Screen Resolution' ??????
[09:32] <faceface> ok... my problem has gone away...
[09:32] <faceface> thanks all
[09:32] <jrib> kingcobra: right, it's in gnome-settings-daemon.  But you already know how to do ctrl-alt-delete since I told you how, so you don't need to do this anymore
[09:32] <Jaymac> soundray - but i have a 2.6.20-13 kernel... and i can't install linux-restricted-modules-generic because it depends 2.6.20-13
[09:33] <Jaymac> is there a workaround?
[09:33] <emet> alenewtoubuntu: because they aren't completely unsupported, but will work with "some difficulty"
[09:33] <SirBob1701> can anyone give me a hand with a sound issue that just popped up (been running it fine for 5 months now)
[09:33] <faceface> when tts comes back, someone pat him on the back
[09:33] <faceface> SirBob1701, restart x
[09:33] <andre_pl> Jaymac: why not downgrade to 12? any good reason?
[09:33] <bluefox83> xMorgawr, yeah sadly people don't realize that it's moving forward very quickly, most people think of terminal interfaces when they think of linux...
[09:33] <Jaymac> andre_pl - would if i could
[09:33] <SirBob1701> faceface I did
[09:34] <Jaymac> it won't let me install the package linux-restricted-modules-generic
[09:34] <SirBob1701> twice2
[09:34] <kingcobra> jrib, :) i know but changing it to  <Control><Alt>Delete in gconf doesnt do anything
[09:34] <SirBob1701> and the computer
[09:34] <blue|palm> Can anyone tell me how to fix the automounting of usb drives... anyone?
[09:34] <lizardmenke> esperegu: gnome-display-properties
[09:34] <Cyyni1> oh good gravy, this new user account's .xsession-errors file is getting bigger while i watch...
[09:34] <jrib> kingcobra: are you using beryl or compiz?
[09:34] <SirBob1701> my sound just decided today to stop working
[09:34] <SirBob1701> and its pissing me off
[09:34] <xMorgawr> bluefox83 exactly... when i told a friend i was going to install ubuntu he said "well, enjoy having to type a lot of lines in console to let it recognize your usb flash"
[09:34] <esperegu> lizardmenke: u tha bomb.. .thx!
[09:34] <kingcobra> jrib, dont think so
[09:34] <andre_pl> Jaymac: if you remove the newer kernel and reinstall the -12 version then the restricted modules should instal. or you can specify the specific version to isntall.
[09:35] <Jaymac> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12042/
[09:35] <kingcobra> jrib, just default standard ubuntu install
[09:35] <xMorgawr> bluefox83 that scared me a little at first but now i can really see how good linux can be
[09:35] <Jaymac> oh.. so just remove the kernel?
[09:35] <Jaymac> will try that
[09:35] <Jaymac> cheers
[09:35] <kane`> I have logitech usb mx510 mouse, and MOUSE4 and MOUSE5 are not being recognized
[09:36] <jrib> kingcobra: what is the output from this: gconftool-2 -g /apps/metacity/keybinding_commands/command_1 && gconftool-2 -g /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_1
[09:36] <jrib> !mouse > kane`    (kane`, see the private message from ubotu)
[09:36] <bluefox83> xMorgawr, to my kno0wledge, ubuntu will recognize a usb flash device automatically with no special setup...
[09:36] <bluefox83> *knowledge
[09:36] <bluefox83> my girlfriend's digi-cam worked the second i plugged it in
[09:36] <kingcobra> disabled
[09:36] <kane`> thank you
[09:36] <kingcobra> jrib,
[09:36] <Amon_Re> how do you recover a system that no longer boots due to problems with initramfs?
[09:36] <jrib> kingcobra: there should be two lines
[09:37] <xMorgawr> bluefox83 yes, exactly.. same with my external hdd... it could even recognize my wireless connection by itself! (i only had to type the ESSID)
[09:37] <kingcobra> jrib, first line is blank
[09:37] <bluefox83> Amon_Re, ibelieve you can pop the installer cd in and use the repair feature...
[09:37] <jrib> kingcobra: are you using /apps/metacity/keybinding_commands/command_1 ?
[09:37] <jrib> kingcobra: in gconf-editor that is
[09:37] <soundray> Amon_Re: did that happen after you made local modifications to initramfs?
[09:38] <Amon_Re> i finally managed to get initramfs to recognise my ide & sata disks, and it seems to be able to start my raid md0 device, but still no boot
[09:38] <bluefox83> xMorgawr, very cool :D
[09:38] <elvirolo> hi all
[09:38] <Amon_Re> bluefox83: been doing that, would help if i knew exactly what i'm doing ;)
[09:38] <kingcobra> jrib, yes it shows up as gnome-system-monitor in gconf
[09:38] <Amon_Re> soundray: no, trying to figure out why Feisty is incompatable with any of my computers
[09:39] <kingcobra> jrib, ive opened and closed gconf plenty of times also
[09:39] <soundray> Amon_Re: rough outline: boot live CD, mount the root partition, chroot to the root partition, fix initramfs
[09:39] <bluefox83> Amon_Re, yeah...i see what you mean..i've never done anything with raid, so i'm afraid i can't help much in that department...
[09:39] <soundray> Amon_Re: a better channel to consult is #ubuntu+1
[09:39] <Zylstra555> Hello, sorry for being off topic, but I have a problem with a computer that will not boot. Is there a general computer chat channel on Freenode?
[09:39] <jrib> kingcobra: and does that setting stay there in gconf-editor?
[09:39] <Amon_Re> soundray: i know that much ;)
[09:39] <elvirolo> i just installed the feisty beta to do some testing, and now and i'd like to install kde and get rid of gnome in order to do some testing in a pure kde environment ... is it possible to do so without a doing a fresh install?
[09:39] <kingcobra> jrib, yes so i dont why it doesnt show up in terminal
[09:39] <soundray> Amon_Re: too bad, because beyond that, I won't be able to help...
[09:40] <Amon_Re> soundray: i'll see in +1
[09:40] <Amon_Re> thx anyway
[09:40] <SirBob1701> heres an new one for you guys when I run alsamixer I get this
[09:40] <SirBob1701> alsamixer: relocation error: alsamixer: symbol snd_mixer_selem_get_playback_dB, version ALSA_0.9 not defined in file libasound.so.2 with link time reference
[09:40] <Jaymac> andre_pl: how can i specify which version of restricted-modules that i want to install?
[09:40] <brophat> how much hard drive space does an ubuntu install take up?
[09:40] <xMorgawr> !anjuta
[09:40] <ubotu> anjuta: A GNOME development IDE, for C/C++. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.2-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 1494 kB, installed size 3760 kB
[09:41] <soundray> elvirolo: 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop' (and ask your next feisty question in #ubuntu+1 please)
[09:41] <jrib> kingcobra: yeah I don't see how that can happen
[09:41] <kingcobra> jrib, shud i reboot
[09:41] <jrib> kingcobra: no, that probably won't do anything
[09:41] <porkchop_1> can we use compiz or beryl on a dual head/2 monitor system?
[09:42] <porkchop_1> with the cube desktop thingie
[09:42] <kingcobra> jrib, any ideas
[09:42] <myky> all: hi can we help me? where i download Ubuntu Ultimate Gamers Edition?
[09:42] <soundray> brophat: you should give it about 2GB as a minimum.
[09:42] <ikonia> porkchop_1: yes but it can be unstable
[09:42] <porkchop_1> cool, thankyou ikonia  :)
[09:42] <kingcobra> myky search google
[09:43] <porkchop_1> ok BRB, hopefully from my ubuntu partition 8)
[09:43] <brophat> soundray that would be for the os and the user space?
[09:43] <soundray> brophat: if your space is tight, you can make a smaller (nonstandard) install by booting the alternate CD and choosing the server option
[09:43] <jrib> kingcobra: close gconf-editor, run 'gconftool-2 --type string -s /apps/metacity/keybinding_commands/command_1 /usr/bin/gnome-system-monitor ' and then use the terminal to check the value again
[09:43] <soundray> brophat: that would just be for the OS and the standard Ubuntu software that comes with it.
[09:43] <brophat> soundray they you should have some more room for userspace
[09:44] <brophat> so prob 3gig partition min??

[09:44] <epi> Anyone have any idea where I can grab Compiz? the main repository for ubuntu listed on their site is a dead link.
[09:44] <SirBob1701> no i didnt
[09:44] <kingcobra> myky ill luk for ya now in a sec
[09:44] <SirBob1701> it jsut suddenly stopped working
[09:45] <soundray> brophat: if you consider user data, there is of course never enough
[09:45] <jrib> !compiz > epi    (epi, see the private message from ubotu)
[09:45] <soundray> brophat: space, I mean
[09:45] <crimsun> SirBob1701: hmm, things just don't randomly stop working - there's always a reason
[09:45] <SirBob1701> only thing i've changed is reinstall gstreamer codecs
[09:45] <SirBob1701> and installed ubuntu updates
[09:45] <crimsun> SirBob1701: and which packages were updated?
[09:45] <SirBob1701> no idea
[09:45] <epi> Ty jrib
[09:46] <SirBob1701> didnt consider to look
[09:46] <ezer> hello!!  this mzu firts time in Ubuntu...
[09:46] <kingcobra> jrib, it worked but shortcut stil doesnt work
[09:46] <ezer> my first time
[09:46] <SirBob1701> right now i'm attempting a reinstall of alsa-base and linux-sound-drivers
[09:46] <jrib> kingcobra: you need to set the keybinding in the same way
[09:46] <SirBob1701> linux-sound-base rather
[09:46] <kingcobra> jrib, second line of first command you gave me is still disabled
[09:46] <brophat> soundray so 2 gigs is what the install takes up. So if you make a partition less than 2 gigs then the install will fail.
[09:47] <hamael> I need some help here, My ntfs drive is read only
[09:47] <jrib> kingcobra: yes, I didn't give you the command to set that one
[09:47] <andre_pl> hamael: install ntfs-3g
[09:47] <kingcobra> jrib, ok ill try
[09:47] <crimsun> SirBob1701: that's not the culprit. The error clearly comes from alsa-utils and libasound2
[09:47] <ezer> i am using ubuntu inside VMWare in windows XP... its sound good or its better to run linux from a partittion ?
[09:47] <andre_pl> hamael: linux can't write to ntfs on its own yet... that packagewill enable you to write to those partitions.
[09:47] <SirBob1701> ok
[09:47] <crimsun> SirBob1701: if you were to reinstall anything, those are the two packages to reinstall.
[09:47] <SirBob1701> i didnt know that
[09:48] <SirBob1701> ok i'll try that now
[09:48] <soundray> brophat: not necessarily. So far, all base installations I've seen were under 2GB. But it varies a bit from version to version and machine to machine.
[09:48] <DM|> Hey guys, im trying to get skype to install, but.... its installing it with the KDE GUI not the GTK
[09:48] <ezer> anzodz helpsme ???
[09:48] <Talaman> llo
[09:48] <SirBob1701> i figured the other two because my sound doesnt work at all
[09:48] <Talaman> how do i setup smb users?
[09:49] <brophat> soundray does the 2gig include the swap?
[09:49] <soundray> brophat: no
[09:49] <SirBob1701> mixer works now
[09:49] <ezer> how i upgrade from 5.10 to thelast release _??
[09:49] <SirBob1701> but sound still doesnt work
[09:49] <Remo_A> i installed Imagemagick v.6.3.3 on my efty edge and the program works, but the executables are not in /usr/bin but still in my install dir. do I have to add the directory to $PATH or is there another way?
[09:50] <brophat> soundray so then we need 2gigs + 500 megs
[09:50] <soundray> ezer: backup and do a fresh install.
[09:50] <andre_pl> SirBob1701: what kind o audio hardware?
[09:50] <xMorgawr> can someone tell me where i can find a howto for anjuta IDE? thanks ^^
[09:50] <dolemite0> what do i need to do to load up wine in Ubuntu after ive installed the package?
[09:50] <hamael> andre_pl: I have all ready installed that, the problem still is there
[09:50] <SirBob1701> onboard sound a nividia CK804 was working fine for months
[09:50] <xMorgawr> dolemite0 nothing i think, i just go to the .exe file and select "open with wine" and it should work
[09:50] <andre_pl> hamael: run 'mount' at the shell... does it say 'ro' or 'rw' next to the partitoins?
[09:50] <dxdemetriou> Is there any good place to check for hardware compatibility on Linux and what are with not propriatery drivers?
[09:50] <crimsun> SirBob1701: pastebin the requested info from http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems , then tell me the url
[09:50] <Talaman> how do i setup smb users?
[09:51] <hamael> andre_pl:  ro
[09:51] <bricas> Hi all, i'm using Ubuntu Edgy on a laptop with both a touchpad and trackpoint (the little stick in the middle of the kb) mouse -- but my trackpoint seems to have stopped working! can anyone help me diagnose the failure?
[09:51] <ezer> soundraz thanks.. but i have a software installed here compiere, that i am testing and its a headhache to install again all...
[09:51] <dolemite0> doesnt list open with wine tho and if i go open with application wine's not listed
[09:51] <Talaman> type in wine
[09:51] <andre_pl> hamael: did you check the configuration for ntfs-3g? it has an entry in the 'preferences' menu
[09:51] <DM|> Im having sound problems in skype, calls are being dropped, can anyone help
[09:51] <hamael> hmm
[09:51] <xMorgawr> dolemite0 check in /usr/bin if wine is there
[09:51] <rickyfingers> wow...small tip for anyone experimenting with chroot'd environment: go back to your old /etc/fstab, and reboot before blowing away the chroot directory
[09:52] <soundray> ezer: you would then have to upgrade to 6.06, then to 6.10.
[09:52] <dolemite0> yes its in the /usr/bin
[09:52] <xMorgawr> can someone tell me where i can find a howto for anjuta IDE? thanks ^^
[09:52] <bruenig> I am retarded or shouldn't if [ -n $WHATEVER ]  be the same as if [ ! -z $WHATEVER ] 
[09:52] <OuZo> anyone know how to set up users & passwords for apache? thanks
[09:52] <ezer> soundray thanks  , another question i am using ubuntu inside VMWARE do zo know ?
[09:52] <hamael> andre_pl: now its  /dev/sda5 on /media/sda5 type ntfs (rw,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46)
[09:52] <soundray> brophat: I can really just give you ballpark figures. If you told me what kind of machine you have and what you are planning to use it for, I could give you more specific advice.
[09:53] <xMorgawr> dolemite0 double click on wine in /usr/bin
[09:53] <bones> is it worth it to mix feisty?
[09:53] <bones> with edgy
[09:53] <xMorgawr> dolemite0 or type "wine" in terminal
[09:53] <kbrooks> bones, no, use backports instead
[09:53] <dolemite0> ah did thanks
[09:53] <anirudha> bones, Do you mean upgrade to 7.04 beta?
[09:53] <xMorgawr> dolemite0 else try to go using terminal to the .exe file you want to open and type "wine filename.exe"
[09:53] <kingcobra> jrib, great i can do it thanks very much
[09:53] <xMorgawr> ^^
[09:53] <bones> anirudha: yes
[09:53] <soundray> ezer: I've tested vmware, but that was years ago. Just ask your question in the channel.
[09:53] <dolemite0> that owrked except wine now says Newer Windows Version Needed lol
[09:53] <jrib> kingcobra: np
[09:53] <ferronica> Any one here using Nokia 7710 or Nokia Phone in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake? Because my ubuntu unable to detect my nokia phone connected through USB Data Cable
[09:54] <xMorgawr> lol
[09:54] <bones> is cedega open source?
[09:54] <anirudha> bones, I actually did that yesterday.
[09:54] <Remo_A> i installed Imagemagick v.6.3.3 on my efty edge and the program works, but the executables are not in /usr/bin but still in my install dir. do I have to add the directory to $PATH or is there another way?
[09:54] <anirudha> kbrooks, What are backports?
[09:54] <dk2> I keep getting disconnected when using Gaim to connect to MSN (keeps disconnecting and then reconnecting with a reading error) anyone know what that means?
[09:54] <LjL> bones: unfortunately, not. the source is available, but not under any sort of open source license
[09:54] <ezer> soundray ok but i want an impartial poit of view, if i ask them they would say that its great
[09:54] <kbrooks> bones, proprietary, but tere is a free cedega cvs
[09:54] <LjL> bones: the good news is that the WINE people are working on Direct3D support a lot, lately
[09:54] <brophat> soundray how does one do a smaller install?
[09:54] <Arafel> Im having a problem with my Ubuntu installation. Im trying to install ubuntu 6.10 onto my SIL 3114 raid driver that has two seagate barracuda 300gb sata drives. The problem is that Gparted doesnt see the "/dev/mapper/sil_something" but rather /dev/sda and sdb. Does anyone know a way to make it realise I have a raid array?
[09:54] <xMorgawr> can someone tell me where i can find a howto for anjuta IDE? thanks ^^
[09:55] <hamael> andre_pl: It was ro before i rebooted
[09:55] <soundray> brophat: (repeat) if your space is tight, you can make a smaller (nonstandard) install by booting the alternate CD and choosing the server option
[09:55] <hanbush> hi, i need some help with wine under edgy
[09:55] <bones> i couldnt get anything worth running in cedega...which is usually the case
[09:55] <soundray> ezer: if you have a question about installing Ubuntu under vmware, please ask the channel
[09:55] <rickyfingers> ubotu tell rickyfingers about chroot
[09:56] <brophat> soundray you mean install with the server ubuntu CD ?
[09:56] <xMorgawr> can someone tell me where i can find a howto for anjuta IDE? thanks ^^
[09:56] <odla> !tell rickyfingers about chroot
[09:56] <ezer> no i dont have question about it, i onlz want to know about performance
[09:56] <Alonea> xMorgawr: i had trouble getting anjuta to work so I moved onto Eclipse and it works fine. You just wanting to write java code or what?
[09:56] <hanbush> can somebody help me with wine?
[09:56] <benzin> evening has anybody had sound problems after installing nvidia drivers? no sound impossible to sound anymore
[09:56] <myky> all: hi can we help me? where i download Ubuntu Ultimate Gamers Edition?
[09:56] <soundray> brophat: that would be another way, but I meant what I said. The alternate CD has a server option which does essentially the same as the server CD.
[09:56] <odla> hanbush: just ask once...by the way don't ask to ask...ask your question :)
[09:57] <xMorgawr> Alonea for java i use eclipse and geany and they work fine, but i wanted to learn using anjuta IDE too
[09:57] <kbrooks> !test
[09:57] <ubotu> Failed.
[09:57] <hanbush> i cant find my .wine directory, it should be in my home directory
[09:57] <odla> myky: have you googled for this?  maybe it's not available on as an ISO yet
[09:57] <hanbush> but its not
[09:57] <odla> hanbush: it's invisible
[09:57] <DM|> HELP with skype please, anyone assist me with this problem
[09:57] <odla> hanbush: i mean hidden
[09:57] <soundray> hanbush: it's hidden. Make nautilus show hidden files.
[09:57] <lockdown> hanbush, ls -a
[09:57] <Alonea> xMorgawr: ah. well, I could never figure out how to compile with it...would like to find a howto for it too
[09:57] <ezer> whats the difrence between downloading the dvd iso and the cd iso ?  the number of extra aplications ??
[09:57] <odla> hanbush: you can go to view and show hidden files then you can click into the directory
[09:57] <kingcobra> myky, ya there
[09:58] <xMorgawr> Alonea i checked the wiki but it seems that there is no one for it yet >.<'
[09:58] <myky> odla: but i find only torrent a i want ftp
[09:58] <hanbush> odla: thx
[09:58] <Pandemonium1x> Hello all. Quick question...is there an Ubuntu distro with beryl pre-installed on it? according to beryls site there is but I can not find it
[09:58] <odla> myky: not sure...i don't know anything about it...sorry
[09:58] <Alonea> xMorgawr: makes me sad...I find it funny how I figured out eclipse in 10 minutes and could not figure out anjuta at all
[09:58] <soundray> Pandemonium1x: there isn't an official one.
[09:58] <odla> Pandemonium1x: you can install beryl very easily
[09:59] <bones> where are the backport repos
[09:59] <Pandemonium1x> I would think so but I am so bad at linux that it seems to be very hard for me to do
[09:59] <xMorgawr> Alonea, honestly i think that geany is perfect to build easy and light java programs... eclipse is a little too "heavy"
[09:59] <soundray> !backports > bones, please read the private message from ubotu
[09:59] <odla> Pandemonium1x: edgy?
[09:59] <xMorgawr> Alonea, have you tried geany?
[09:59] <Pandemonium1x> Thats the one I am using
[09:59] <ferronica> soundray: need help
[09:59] <Alonea> xMorgawr: ah, well, I am a computer science major. I use it for school. So far I love it.
[09:59] <soundray> ferronica: ask the channel
[10:00] <kingcobra> calling myky
[10:00] <odla> Pandemonium1x: are you going to use aiglx or xgl?  what kind of video card do you have?
[10:00] <bruenig> I think ferronica is related to hendaus
[10:00] <soundray> ferronica: I won't help you, because you refuse to follow my recommendations.
[10:00] <xMorgawr> Alonea, at school we use jcreator for java (windows stuff >_>) but we still don't do hard things.. only cheap programs ;)
[10:01] <Pandemonium1x> I wanna say XGL....I have an ATI Radion Express 200M gfx
[10:01] <odla> Pandemonium1x: i think you need XGL then
[10:01] <razzorz> G'day all
[10:01] <bruenig> !howdy | razzorz

[10:02] <Alonea> xMorgawr: ah. yeah, the class uses JCreator, but I am on Linux and since I am working on programs most the time at home. I just bring my laptop to class and use eclipse. professor doesn't mind at all. I think in my class we are making programs to convert whatever a user types to ascii or another code and then building off of it. Like adding multiple methods and such. still easy for me. How...
[10:02] <Alonea> ...is the debugger geany?
[10:02] <kingcobra> myky hello
[10:03] <Pandemonium1x> hehe oh lord, see those instructions is what keeps linux from the prime time spotlight....soo much to know and do, no point and click :-(
[10:03] <Pandemonium1x> well thanks though it's a start
[10:03] <razzorz> lol
[10:03] <bruenig> Pandemonium1x, yeah copy and paste, pretty tough

[10:03] <bruenig> Pandemonium1x, but in linux, they make it easier, you can just highlight to paste, and middle click to paste
[10:03] <crimsun> emet: what do you mean? There's still an OEM option in the alternate installer, yes.
[10:03] <bruenig> highlight to copy*
[10:04] <emet> ok
[10:04] <Pandemonium1x> I am gonna give it a try now, see if I can get it to work so if you are in the room I will be too

[10:04] <crimsun> quaal: immediately, though the consistency depends on the accuracy of your hardware
[10:04] <quaal> soundray, ntpd is the new ntpdate.

[10:11] <odla> Pandemonium1x: with an ATI i think you must use XGL
[10:11] <SlimeyPete> greig_: ^^
[10:11] <Talaman> greig: i use xmms
[10:11] <hase_> for music, xmmx, and for video totem works well enough
[10:11] <Pandemonium1x> hmmm alright...thanks
[10:11] <mehow> how can i sync my zen mirco with ubuntu... ?
[10:11] <hase_> ^greig_
[10:11] <odla> Alamo: bash: echo xterm: command not found
[10:11] <devilsadvocate> greig_ rhythmbox ?
[10:12] <hase_> Is VLC better than xmms and totem then?
[10:12] <greig_> SlimeyPete : thanks. im just new to linux/ubuntu and looking for good/cool programs
[10:12] <viator> what package do i need to play quicktime files
[10:12] <odla> hase_: yes ... mplayer is also very good
[10:12] <viator> i had it working in dapper but ive upgraded
[10:12] <odla> viator: w32codecs
[10:12] <AlucardRomero> XMMS is just an MP3 player, no?
[10:12] <Alamo> odla: can you use "alt-p" and "alt-n" in the irssi?
[10:12] <SlimeyPete> greig_: VLC looks a bit basic but it supports pretty much every format you could ever want
[10:12] <viator> ok i got them
[10:12] <odla> Alamo: that's it...thanks!  :D
[10:12] <Alamo> ...
[10:12] <Talaman> how do i setup smb users?
[10:12] <greig_> ive installed amarok for music, i like the fetures
[10:12] <hase_> I like that XMMS is an MP3 player though, it's like a sweet version of winamp

[10:15] <hanbush> does anybody know how to get warcraft 3 working with wine?
[10:15] <Flannel> hanbush: I'd ask in #winehq
[10:15] <zeddicus2> i read the solution to my anjuta problem is: "Change the /bin/sh symlink on Ubuntu systems to point to the dash shell instead of the current bash shell. "   how do i do that??????
[10:15] <greig_> !mplayer
[10:15] <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
[10:15] <hanbush> flannel: ty
[10:15] <rhys> hanbush, i do. i know the maintainer of the WoW on wine
[10:15] <Flannel> zeddicus2: that's not the solution.
[10:15] <rogue780|laptop> is there a way to use wget and specify a different file name for the file it is downloading?
[10:15] <emet> !apt-cache
[10:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-cache - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:15] <rhys> go to #ubuntu-ohio and try to talk to Brady_M

[10:16] <rhys> ohh. i thought you said Wow. sorry
[10:16] <Infohawk> Anyone know of any good guides for setting up multi-button mouses on ubuntu?
[10:16] <rhys> i just saw warcraft
[10:16] <jhigueros> i try codecs to and the image was distocioned
[10:16] <odla> is there theta special character in oo.org2?  or am i blind
[10:16] <zeddicus2> Flannel: so what is the solution?
[10:16] <Talaman> enix: i may not have that one installed
[10:16] <SirBob1701> crimsun, so you think you can help me at all?
[10:16] <Flannel> zeddicus2: What's the problem? Sounds like your script is written wrong.
[10:16] <Flannel> rhys: set a GRUB password
[10:16] <rogue780|laptop> odla, what do you mean?
[10:16] <twysted> im switching to ubuntu this week but i need to know if anyone knows of any apps that i can use to get my outlook email into another program such as thunderbird
[10:16] <eth01> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? >> i get this when i try to install libglib2.0-dev
[10:17] <rhys> Flannel, apparently i have to.
[10:17] <rhys> :\
[10:17] <odla> rogue780|laptop: you know 'theta' the mathematical symbol for angles
[10:17] <Flannel> eth01: did you use sudo?  Do you have some other synaptic/update-manager/whatever running?
[10:17] <twysted> eth01> are you running apt-get or aptitude with sudo?
[10:17] <lessshaste> acroread looks like this now http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/2092/screenos3.png
[10:17] <eth01> apt-get
[10:17] <LaNCeloT_RW> how do I test a proxy speed?
[10:17] <eth01> yes
[10:17] <eth01> i use sudo
[10:17] <rogue780|laptop> is there a way to use wget and specify a different file name for the file it is downloading?
[10:17] <zeddicus2> Flannel: i didn't write anything yet, it's just a fresh copy of anjuta, and i get the message: "/usr/bin/create_global_tags.sh: 3: function: not found  shift: 11: can't shift that many."
[10:17] <brophat> the ubuntu website says that the computer needs 256 megs of ram min for the install CD? is that right because windows installed on this machine only has 192 megs ram.
[10:17] <rogue780|laptop> odla: what about it?
[10:17] <twysted> eth01 are you sure you do not have apt-get or aptitude in another window?
[10:17] <odla> rogue780|laptop: is there a special character...i need that sign
[10:17] <zeddicus2> Flannel: i googled on it and it told me to do what i wrote in the channel before
[10:17] <lessshaste>  I get  Pango-WARNING **: No builtin or dynamically
 loaded modules were found.
[10:18] <Flannel> brophat: 256 no?  192, yes.  But you can install with the alternate CD with even less than that
[10:18] <eth01> other thing how can i do updates
[10:18] <eth01> from adept
[10:18] <epi> Guys how do I get root?
[10:18] <Flannel> !sudo | epi
[10:18] <ubotu> epi: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[10:18] <Ayabara2> are there other good music players than amarok that comes with graphical eq?
[10:18] <brophat> Flannel you are saying the ubuntu cd requires 256 megs of ram?
[10:18] <tbuss> ftp server ubuntu
[10:18] <twysted> thanks for the spaml remaxim
[10:18] <enix> Talaman: thanks for trying tho
[10:18] <^MiNi_D^> can any1 help me with the frameless windows in xgl problem?
[10:18] <Flannel> rhys: your other alternative is to set a root password.  You'll be prompted for the root password each time you login.
[10:18] <epi> Is there any way to get root?
[10:18] <Flannel> brophat: no, I believe it requires 192.
[10:18] <eth01> other thing how can i do updates
[10:18] <eth01> from adept
[10:18] <odla> ah in the greek characters...of course!
[10:19] <lessshaste> help!
[10:19] <odla> lessshaste: question?
[10:19] <HipotermiA> epi, sudo -u root passwd
[10:19] <Flannel> rhys: er, each time you login to the recovery console, that is.
[10:19] <rhys> Flannel, that doesnt break ubuntu?
[10:19] <frojnd> can someone helop me with lm sensors. It can't detect it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12044/
[10:19] <brophat> Flannel the website says 256.
[10:19] <lessshaste> odla: how do I get the fonts to work again
[10:19] <rhys> Flannel, last time i checked enabling root kills alot of programs.
[10:19] <rogue780|laptop> HipotermiA: he left. but you could also do sudo passwd root
[10:19] <zeddicus2> so got any clue Flannel as to how i change the symlink?
[10:19] <Flannel> rhys: No, it doesn't.  That was fixed... uh, on breezy.
[10:19] <LjL> Flannel: yeah, that's the heuristic figure i've come up with. well brophat, the site might err on the safe side, but 192 megs will make it work - just don't start openoffice while installing, i suppose ;)
[10:19] <brophat> but i mean winblows hog installed on this machine and the machine only has 192 megs ram
[10:20] <brophat> ok thanks hahah
[10:20] <odla> lessshaste: what did you do...what do you mean?
[10:20] <HipotermiA> su
[10:20] <krzysiek> hello
[10:20] <brophat> i looked for this alternate cd but did not find. where is i?
[10:20] <LjL> brophat, Ubuntu itself *will* work with less than 192 megs of RAM, it's just the Live CD that - given the quite interesting things it has to do - needs more RAM
[10:20] <Flannel> brophat: http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.10/  First paragraph, "192MB"
[10:20] <lessshaste> odla:  how do I get the fonts to work... acroread looks like this now http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/2092/screenos3.png
[10:20] <rhys> Flannel, this was a few years ago
[10:20] <lessshaste>  I tried  pango-querymodules > /etc/pango/pango.modules
[10:20] <LjL> brophat: right, you can always use the alternate CD if the desktop one doesn't make it
[10:20] <rogue780|laptop> is there a way to use wget and specify a different file name for the file it is downloading?
[10:20] <Flannel> brophat: but, you want the alternate CD if you want to install with less than that.
[10:20] <bruenig> rogue780, -o filename
[10:21] <LjL> brophat: as to the URL to it... what mirror do you prefer?
[10:21] <brophat> LjL north amereica
[10:21] <odla> lessshaste: hrmm...no idea...someone in here can help i'd imagine though
[10:21] <Flannel> zeddicus2: the problem is it's using bash, and you want it to use dash?  Are you sure that's not backwards?
[10:21] <lessshaste> odla: ok.. I hope so :)
[10:21] <brophat> does the website explain what is intalled with alternate cd?
[10:22] <AlucardRomero> !ntfs-3g
[10:22] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but please remember to keep backups of critical data. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[10:22] <Flannel> brophat: the exact same system is installed with the alternate CD
[10:22] <brophat> Flannel but it is suppoed to take up less room
[10:22] <zeddicus2> Flannel: to tell you the truth i'm new in the linux thingy and i have no idea what's the difference, i think that dash is a more powerfull shell?
[10:22] <Flannel> brophat: no.  It uses less RAM during install
[10:22] <LjL> brophat: this is one US mirror http://osmirrors.cerias.purdue.edu/pub/ubuntu-releases/edgy/
[10:22] <brophat> oh ok
[10:22] <brophat> thanks LjL I appreciate it
[10:23] <Flannel> zeddicus2: With edgy, ubuntu switched to using dash as default, which broke a *lot* of scripts which required stuff in bash (and didn't specify that they needed bash, because the writers were careless)
[10:23] <Flannel> zeddicus2: the shebang at the beginning of the script (#! /bin/sh) says "use any shell", they needed /bin/bash, essentially.
[10:23] <Pandemonium1x> Alright, aparently you can not install beryl in VMWare Ubuntu because it freezes up...hehe will have to duel boot later on tonight....thanks for your help everybody
[10:24] <ikonia> Pandemonium1x: of course you can't !
[10:24] <odla> Pandemonium1x: good luck!
[10:24] <rogue780|laptop> bruenig: won't that just change the log output?
[10:24] <zeddicus2> Flannel: so where is this script located? in usr/bin?
[10:24] <tbuss> Ive just installed the gui version of proftpd. how do i test to see if i can connect from another machine
[10:24] <dougb> what is the port for Gnome Bittorrent?
[10:24] <bruenig> rogue780|laptop, my fault -O filename
[10:25] <Crane> installing Feisty, be back soon
[10:25] <Flannel> zeddicus2: Uh, that script was... whereever that error message said it was.  But, first, are you sure you're installing the correct version of anjuita?  Made for Edgy?
[10:25] <rogue780|laptop> bruenig: thanks. I was getting confused as to why all the files were 3.4kb
[10:25] <dk1447> Hello, I installed proftpd & gproftpd on ubuntu 6.1 desktop, and it seems that the gproftpd is using the /etc/proftpd.conf instead of the /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf. Anyone know how to fix this?
[10:25] <rogue780|laptop> bruenig: no worries. thanks a bunch
[10:25] <zeddicus2> Flannel: I used the simple add/remove thingy of edgy and put a mark next to anjuta...
[10:26] <lawine> dk1447: do both files exist? If so, check if on isn't a link to the other. if one is a link, it's okay I think
[10:26] <zeddicus2> https://launchpad.net/anjuta/+bug/63202
[10:26] <Flannel> zeddicus2: hmm.  Really?  They still haven't fixed a bug like that this far along?  You're running from the... oh, a bug report
[10:26] <SirBob1701> has anyone fixed the issue where you get sound in flash but nothing else can produce sound?
[10:27] <jrib> SirBob1701: use flash9

[10:27] <dk1447> lawine: yep both files exist and I checked after bootup the server uses the one in etc/proftpd/... but when I start the gproftpd it uses the other one
[10:27] <adx2> i installed gcc but when trying to run ./configure it says Could not find a working compiler
[10:27] <adx2> how do i fix this?
[10:27] <Flannel> zeddicus2: right.  Ok, so we're going to open to that file, (sudo nano /usr/bin/create_global_tags.sh) and change the first line, where it says /bin/sh, change it to /bin/bash

[10:28] <adx2> Flannel: ok doing that right now
[10:29] <SirBob1701> it just started doing this today

[10:32] <adaptr> "almost fine" ?
[10:33] <adaptr> that's like.. not , right ?
[10:33] <foormea> i currently have 2 screens connected on my computer, a CRT, a DFP. now the CRT is the main monitor, i'm trying to have the DFP to be the main monitor. i'm using twinview. do you know how to do it please?
[10:33] <zeddicus2> adaptr: yea, wouldn't execute the program, something about file not in local dir
[10:33] <Flannel> zeddicus2: You're connected to the internet, right?
[10:33] <Flannel> zeddicus2: and have updated all these packages?
[10:33] <zeddicus2> Flannel: yes, ofcourse
[10:34] <Flannel> zeddicus2: Odd.  Just strikes me as horribly odd that something so simple hasn't yet been fixed in the repos.
[10:34] <brophat> does the ubuntu cd install mysql?

[10:34] <Flannel> brophat: Ubuntu has zero things listening by default
[10:34] <zeddicus2> Flannel: i might have damaged something yesterday when i wasn't able to connect to my access-point that has wpa-psk, and i had to install network-manager menually,
[10:34] <brophat> Flannel ok that is good.
[10:35] <brophat> Flannel is there a place that lists what is installed by default?
[10:35] <zeddicus2> maybe i'll reinstall the whole thing
[10:36] <swaldick> Hello all, does 6.06 support reiserfs format?
[10:36] <arch_> what is the most stable / fastest linux VNC client/server program?
[10:36] <Flannel> brophat: uh.  Hmm.  No, I don't think so.  Well, once you're installed, you can.

[10:39] <guille> Supaplex, thanks anyway :)
[10:39] <KurtKraut> razzorz, try disabling desktop effects.
[10:39] <Flannel> brophat: It installs a full desktop, with OpenOffice, games, yadda yadda.  If you want a stripped down version (CLI only, which you then build up to a system), you can do that too with the Alternate CD (there's a "server" option, which is different than the server CD, but still installs a bare system)
[10:40] <brophat> Supaplex  how will web 2.0 be better?
[10:40] <jrib> razzorz: that's a feature of xgl, google for "shift backspace disable"
[10:40] <Supaplex> brophat: it was a joke. did you miss the scroll back?
[10:40] <bluemchen43> hallo
[10:40] <epi> Yey! Got compiz working! Just one question, whats the superkey?
[10:40] <tyler_d> lol
[10:40] <tyler_d> middle mouse button
[10:40] <bruenig> brophat, if you do this, it will list all the packages that were installed by default (one flaw it does not output packages that were updated), INSTALL=$(ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info | grep \ time.list | awk '{print $6}') ; ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info | grep .list | grep $INSTALL | awk '{print $8}' | sed 's/.list//'
[10:40] <tyler_d> or windows key
[10:41] <SirBob1701> is there any way to view all the errors thrown by an application?
[10:41] <brophat> Supaplex oh ok haha sorry. yeah because i heard web 2.0 was no different than the web now except it does not allow you to post things the gov does not like.
[10:41] <Flannel> bruenig, brophat, he's on a fresh install, he can simply do `dpkg -l` to get all the packages (or open up synaptic and look)
[10:41] <zeddicus2> Flannel: ok now i still get a weird message when i try to execute my prog, "program <program path> is not a local file"
[10:41] <ferronica> soundray: sorry
[10:41] <bruenig> Flannel, oh
[10:42] <ferronica> soundray: are you there???
[10:42] <zeddicus2> it compiled fine
[10:42] <bruenig> or ls /var/lib/dpkg/info | grep .list | sed 's/.list//'
[10:42] <ferronica> Any one here using mobile in ubuntu
[10:43] <guille> I'm running beryl with radeon module and AIGLX, some windows don't work, like gnome-terminal and gaim, the window is white, has it  a solution?
[10:43] <hypn0> SirBob1701: run it from terminal :-/
[10:43] <SirBob1701> oo lol
[10:44] <function1> does plf still exist for ubuntu?
[10:44] <Flannel> guille: #ubuntu-effects for Beryl support
[10:44] <guille> Flannel, thanks and sorry for the wrong channel
[10:44] <mkoby> Hi all, I can't use any apt or dpkg client program, it always says the file list for gnome-themes is missing the final newline, but I don't know where the file list is to add it.

[10:45] <ferronica> Any one here using mobile in ubuntu
[10:47] <mlalkaka> Does Ubuntu 7.04 have a slogan yet? I thought of one: "Ubuntu 7.04: It's time to get feisty!" (pun intended).

[10:48] <sputnik_uk> Hi all, anyone know how to limit proftpd to one user?
[10:48] <Seppi> i completely messed my graphic card up
[10:49] <Supaplex> brophat: ahh. afaik it's just the web some have come to expect. fancy. resourceful. etc. implies ajax. (just my understanding). no idea who actually defines it. it's just one of those soft terms.
[10:50] <SirBob1701> what the hell odes this mean  Unable to start mDNS browsing: MDNS service is not running
[10:50] <Seppi> does anyone know how I can reset my graphic card?
[10:50] <brophat> Supaplex what i understand it is a web that does not have net neutrality.
[10:50] <jetscreamer> that's some blahAvahi stuff SirBob1701
[10:50] <jetscreamer> iirc
[10:51] <SirBob1701> this sound stuff is ticking me off big time lol system has been working perfectly fine for months now it desides to crap out on me
[10:51] <jhornick> sirbob: iirc mDNS is an apple Multicast DNS service, what program is mentioning it?
[10:51] <brophat> Supaplex and all the talk about it having all this better stuff in it is just a trick to get you to join it.

[10:53] <Kunk> Hi. I'm trying to get Apache2 + PHP5 + Postgresql to work. Loading a local webpage, I'm asked if I want to download. I've traced the problem to libapache2-mod-php5 that should load in 'mods-available' two files: php5.load and php5.conf. These files are not in the mods-available. How can I get them in or get LAPP to work. It's been three days at this . .  Help?
[10:53] <hypn0> RoundyT1: ask it then
[10:53] <HipotermiA> quien tiene un link de cegeda !
[10:53] <Supaplex> nomopofomo: ewwwu :P got backups?
[10:53] <nomopofomo> nah :(
[10:53] <nomopofomo> i don't actually hvae to "recover it"
[10:53] <nomopofomo> nothing disasterous happened
[10:53] <nomopofomo> but linux won't see my NTFS stripe
[10:53] <SirBob1701> if your lspci and a device is listed 2 times with different 00:00 nubmers can that cause an issue
[10:54] <mkoby> HipotermiA: Aller au #ubuntu-fr, svp.
[10:54] <Flannel> Kunk: if they're not in mods-available, remove with (--purge) libapach2-mod-php5 and reinstall
[10:54] <RoundyT1> I was looking around in my session's window and i have a stupid - extremely sensitive - touchpad and i deleted something, though I am not sure what I deleted... Now none of my icons are ubuntu icons anymore and they are the standard gnome icons, my beryl still works just fine, just my fonts, and icons are all messed up.
[10:54] <jetscreamer> where do they get these names, anyway
[10:54] <bluemchen43> so mkoby make a bakup off your system and hope the best...
[10:54] <crimsun> SirBob1701: sure, give me a sec. I'm in office hours currently.
[10:54] <britt> oy! What's the gtk app that sends one command to many gnome-terminals?
[10:54] <jhornick> jetscreamer: because they want interesting names, not practical names. well that's my guess
[10:54] <tbuss> anyone here successfully setup a ftp server

[10:55] <jetscreamer> newbie001: try F2 instead
[10:55] <Kunk> Flannel: Hi. I've done that about six times now. Funny, apache-ssl works sort of if I add the libphp .so - what a sad mess this is. Why is this happening? Buggy or what?
[10:55] <aev> newbie001: i got taht in the feisty beta
[10:56] <newbie001> f2 - blinking cursor, doesnt respond
[10:56] <nomopofomo> help? i need to get linux to recognize my NTFS RAID 0 stripe
[10:56] <Flannel> Kunk: Well, that package should install those conf/load files.  If it's not, well, it should be.  Did you do any funky chmodding? or chowning of dirs?
[10:56] <RoundyT1> I was looking around in my session's window and i have a stupid - extremely sensitive - touchpad and i deleted something, though I am not sure what I deleted... Now none of my icons are ubuntu icons anymore and they are the standard gnome icons, my beryl still works just fine, just my fonts, and icons are all messed up.
[10:56] <newbie001> aev, that is what im using
[10:56] <RoundyT1> it was in the "startup" tab
[10:56] <jetscreamer> you might examine /etc/inittab to see what's going on.. i don't know much about it though
[10:56] <Kunk> libapache2-mod-php5 --purge
[10:57] <mikeconcepts2> I need some help getting my microphone to work using Edgy
[10:57] <newbie001> this is using the boot-cd, i haven't modified anything
[10:57] <mikeconcepts2> it is an audigy 1 sound card
[10:57] <aev> newbie001: ahh than i cant help you at all :) , it is sorta locking up for me. I should be responsible and file a bug or something
[10:57] <jetscreamer> newbie001: you mean it's a live cd?
[10:57] <newbie001> yes
[10:57] <mikeconcepts2> nothing from recorded
[10:57] <jetscreamer> ah oh ok
[10:57] <aev> jetscreamer: for me as well
[10:57] <Flannel> Kunk: er, is that the command you're giving?
[10:57] <jetscreamer> no idea
[10:57] <crimsun> SirBob1701: amixer set 'IEC958' off
[10:57] <epi> Guys, could you tell me whats wrong with these terminal commands?
[10:58] <epi> cd compiz-extra-x.x.x
[10:58] <epi> ./configure && make && sudo make install
[10:58] <aev> it gave a misterious error, i could go and find which
[10:58] <Kunk> Flannel: nope. This is the sixteenth install -- sigh
[10:58] <mikeconcepts2> sound recorder results in nothing from the mic
[10:58] <epi> Im trying to addon some more extras to compiz
[10:58] <SirBob1701> how do i do that?
[10:58] <epi> but its confusing the terminal at that section and I dont know how to adapt that code.
[10:58] <Flannel> Kunk: what odd things did you do to your /etc/apache2 dir?
[10:58] <mikeconcepts2> I can hear my own voice coming out of my speakers
[10:58] <Kunk> Flannel - well sort of, but not really - I'm using two machines, one monitopr and I've noticed the typo. But is the command OK?
[10:59] <mikeconcepts2> so perhaps it has something to do with the audigy driver
[10:59] <nomopofomo> help? i need to get linux to recognize my NTFS RAID 0 stripe
[10:59] <mikeconcepts2> what is pcm captture
[10:59] <Flannel> Kunk: no.  That command is nothing like what it ought to be.  `sudo apt-get remove --purge libapache2-mod-php5`
[10:59] <mjr> nomopofomo, probably won't happen
[10:59] <RoundyT1> I was looking around in my session's window and i have a stupid - extremely sensitive - touchpad and i deleted something, though I am not sure what I deleted... Now none of my icons are ubuntu icons anymore and they are the standard gnome icons, my beryl still works just fine, just my fonts, and icons are all messed up.
[11:00] <bluemchen43> mkoby so i  search in the moment with google, but there be some links about this problems
[11:00] <Kunk> Flannel: Oh, well I've installed Apache2 + PHP5, removed all including configs. Tried Apache + PHP4, ditto. Then Apache-ssl , ditto, bunch of times.
[11:00] <swaldick> could anyone help with a fstab issue
[11:00] <pike_> mikeconcepts2: just some settings in alsamixer when i had that problem
[11:00] <swaldick> could anyone help with a fstab issue?
[11:01] <mikeconcepts2> pike, been playing around with that for a while now, and I am missing something
[11:01] <crimsun> SirBob1701: type it in a Terminal
[11:01] <nomopofomo> mjr: why not?
[11:01] <tbuss> does anyone how to open ports on router for ftp config

[11:12] <Talaman> no help there
[11:12] <evilsocket> Flannel, but what if grub loads but the usb hd is not attached? does this cause any problems or it simply loads windows on the main hd ?
[11:12] <RoundyT1> Flannel,  no its not like they are gone, they just aren't the ubuntu set....i just deleted something in the "sessions" startup programs window
[11:13] <Talaman> one would think, that if i had found help there I WOULDN"T BE ASKING FOR IT HERE
[11:13] <RoundyT1> KromiX, I don't have issues with beryl...it runs great...though it is your choice.
[11:13] <Oswy> HELLO, can ANYONE at least look at my question?
[11:13] <Flannel> evilsocket: That's why you want to use a CD rom.  Otherwise you'll have to install grub (which means /boot as well, at least in part) to your harddrive, to boot to your USB
[11:13] <Oswy> Can missing drivers lead to an inability for display?
[11:13] <RoundyT1> Flannel,  no its not like they are gone, they just aren't the ubuntu set....i just deleted something in the "sessions" startup programs window
[11:14] <Oswy> Like, I get passed the loadup screen.
[11:14] <Oswy> And then it goes blank.
[11:14] <colbert> Talaman: What exactly do you mean? Mounting shares or ?

[11:15] <SirBob1701> cimsun says theres no conf and the set-default-card doesnt work
[11:15] <m4t_> google does
[11:15] <Oswy> I'll try Ctrl+Alt+f1.
[11:15] <Oswy> So what do I do now that I've pressed it?
[11:16] <Flannel> Talaman: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/configuring-samba.html  Halfway down that page, under "User Accounts"
[11:16] <Oswy> Ugh, nope, it just went blank again.
[11:16] <arch_> can anyone recommend a VNC client/server for Ubuntu?
[11:16] <bruenig> !vnc

[11:19] <m4t_> type the kernel name of the boot option

[11:22] <Oswy> So change the end of the kernel line to nosplash video=vga16:off?
[11:22] <Thewarder> hmm
[11:23] <cables> Oswy, m4t, can't you just remove the "splash" argument?

[11:23] <cables> m4t, that's definitely wrong
[11:23] <Oswy> I have no idea what I'm doing, though.
[11:23] <bruenig> emet, don't think so
[11:24] <cables> m4t, Oswy, are you trying to disable the splash?
[11:24] <Oswy> I am, yeah.
[11:24] <Thewarder> I am going to talkto xp
[11:24] <Oswy> Or to stop my screen from going blank.
[11:24] <cables> Oswy, remove splash and quiet from the kernel line.
[11:24] <Thewarder> I mean HP
[11:24] <Oswy> u
[11:24] <SirBob1701> crimson think i could fix it if i compiled alsa ?

[11:25] <Manny> hi
[11:25] <emet> using "apt-cache search", can I make a pipe that prints a random package
[11:25] <Oswy> Nope, same problem.
[11:26] <emet> like is there a unix utility for randomly picking something from a list
[11:26] <zortechsolutions> anyone know how to use ubuntu server?
[11:26] <Manny> can I use the live CD for running arbitrary commands? I'd like to do some "boot linux from CD, run script <foo>, reboot" magic. Any ideas?
[11:26] <cables> Can anyone explain what IOWAIT CPU usage is?
[11:26] <Oswy> So should the video card be a problem?
[11:26] <jrib> emet: $RANDOM will give you a random integer
[11:26] <Oswy> The one that I have.
[11:26] <bruenig> Manny, yeah
[11:27] <zortechsolutions> if you are good at using ubuntu server please private message me
[11:27] <Manny> I'd like to use this as a tricky well-thought backup/disk mirror solution involving a nightly boot from CD, dd if=/dev/hda, reboot
[11:27] <Oswy> Like I said, recovery mode works (I can log in and stuff), but I just don't know what to do since there's no GUI.
[11:27] <h1st0> Oswy: what are you trying to fix?
[11:27] <Manny> oh don't forget the "eject" so that we won't boot again from CD after reboot! :)
[11:27] <bruenig> Manny, you can do that if you want, probably a way to do it with cron while the disk is running easier
[11:27] <emet> apt-cache search [a-z]  | wc -l
[11:27] <Oswy> After the load screen, my monitor goes blank.
[11:27] <Oswy> And I can't do anything.
[11:28] <bruenig> more easily*
[11:28] <Manny> bruenig: dd if=/dev/hda WHILE THE DISK IS RUNNING?!
[11:28] <h1st0> Oswy: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:28] <emet> is there a better way to print how mage packages in repo then
[11:28] <_Mr_Denix_> i used macchanger (as a deb package under edgy) to fake my MAC but after restarting the system my MAC restores to the original. how can i stop this from happening ? anyone ? thank you :)

[11:28] <h1st0> Oswy: what type of video card do you have?

[11:29] <cables> According to Bootchart, there's a period of 10 seconds after pccardd is started where there's no CPU or disk activity... what's with that?
[11:29] <crimsun> SirBob1701: is the aplay command audible?
[11:29] <Oswy> Can I do it through the recovery mode, though?
[11:29] <Oswy> Because my Windows isn't working properly either.
[11:29] <RoundyT1> can someone do me a favor?
[11:29] <bruenig> Manny, or you can tar everything up which is what I would do if I backed up
[11:29] <BetaKookies> restarting
[11:29] <h1st0> Oswy: yes all the command listed to do it should be ones that you enter in to terminal.
[11:29] <SirBob1701> no

[11:29] <RoundyT1> can someone using 6.10 do me a favor?

[11:43] <crimsun> Slart: try it on a Feisty Beta desktop image first
[11:43] <_Mr_Denix_> RoundyT1 try changing your theme
[11:43] <Oswy> I think it's a Netgear peripheral, but I'm not sure of the exact model.
[11:43] <crimsun> Oswy: and wifi chipset?
[11:43] <jrib> emet: the random number may be too big, mod out by the length maybe
[11:43] <crimsun> Oswy: is it pcmcia/cardbus, usb, or pci?
[11:43] <max_> whats the command to start remote desktop without using the gui ?
[11:43] <Oswy> Hmm.
[11:43] <Oswy> I think PCI, but I'm not sure.
[11:43] <black_13> jrib, yeah i am worried about avi's that is im worried that i would be able to find the needed codec
[11:43] <emet> ok
[11:43] <trond> tbuss: I use it, I probably would not run a server for FBI on it, but it works and users are restricted by password
[11:44] <Oswy> Yeah, it is.
[11:44] <trond> tbuss: All that gui is doing is throwing some values into the conf-file
[11:44] <crimsun> SirBob1701: err, close all firefox, evince, and openoffice.org instances
[11:44] <jrib> black_13: does it still not work after following the wiki page?
[11:44] <emet> jrib: 0 to 32767
[11:44] <tbuss> trond: I have a router installed, how do I open the ports for that
[11:44] <emet> 21331
[11:44] <Thewarder> well this is neat I wonder if it will work http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sp2_slipstream.asp
[11:44] <emet> is mx
[11:44] <emet> max
[11:44] <matthew1429> I have 1 gb ram and about 50 gigs available on my laptop, how would you guys recommend formatting?
[11:44] <emet> so
[11:44] <crimsun> Oswy: ok, pastebin ``lspci -v && lspci -vvn''
[11:44] <matthew1429> 2 gig swap and rest for /?
[11:44] <black_13> jrib would you mind if we spoke privately
[11:44] <crimsun> Oswy: then tell me the url
[11:44] <jrib> black_13: here is better
[11:44] <trond> tbuss: I am no expert on routers :)
[11:44] <emet> $RANDOM - 11436
[11:44] <Oswy> k
[11:45] <SirBob1701> crimson only this mixer_app 6141 mcginleyr1   17u   CHR 116,10      8851 /dev/snd/controlC0
[11:45] <emet> how do I accomplish this Jrib?
[11:45] <mariachi> guys what do you use as a video player? (avi, mkv, ogg, ac3, h.246) VLC or Mplayer?
[11:45] <emet> this: $RANDOM - 11436
[11:45] <jrib> emet: then you will have negative numbers:  try $RANDOM % 11436
[11:45] <Oswy> Command not found...
[11:45] <black_13> jrib i dont know if this channel frowns on torrents of tv shows
[11:45] <emet> ah
[11:45] <emet> ok
[11:45] <rob_> mariachi: VLC
[11:45] <Oswy> Wait, nvm.
[11:45] <crimsun> Oswy: you likely made a typo
[11:45] <Oswy> Yeah.
[11:45] <tbuss> trond: so this will allow me to setup a ftp server so that only my family members that dont have local accounts can connect and download files
[11:45] <mariachi> rob_ thanks ;)
[11:45] <crimsun> SirBob1701: what does your last statement mean?
[11:45] <Oswy> There is no URL...
[11:45] <rob_> ;)
[11:45] <emet> apt-cache search [a-z]  | cat -n | grep $RANDOM % 11436
[11:46] <emet> prints
[11:46] <SirBob1701> thats all that shows up
[11:46] <emet> grep: %: No such file or directory
[11:46] <emet> grep: 11436: No such file or directory
[11:46] <SirBob1701> i'll paste bin
[11:46] <emet> subshell?
[11:46] <crimsun> SirBob1701: good. Now run the aplay command again.
[11:46] <jrib> emet: yes
[11:46] <SirBob1701> ok
[11:46] <trond> tbuss: Gproftp will allow you to define a group of users 'family' which have to type specific passwords to enter your ftp
[11:46] <black_13> jrib im download the avi now
[11:46] <SirBob1701> ok crimsun it runs
[11:46] <black_13> jrib so i havent tried it yet
[11:46] <Oswy> I just seem to be denied access to everything, crimsun.
[11:46] <trond> tbuss: Just play around with the users tab in the gui
[11:46] <crimsun> Oswy: err, you're using http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org ?
[11:47] <crimsun> SirBob1701: and is it audible?
[11:47] <Oswy> Uhh.
[11:47] <jrib> black_13: ok
[11:47] <Oswy> No, I'm not.
[11:47] <SirBob1701> ya
[11:47] <SirBob1701> sounds clear
[11:47] <bitwiseshiftleft> question: is there a good way to install ubuntu on a soekris board?
[11:47] <max_> whats the command to start the vnc server plz
[11:47] <tbuss> trond: to test my connection from another computer in the house type ftp:// x.x.x.x
[11:47] <ckULive> feisty - doesn't the installer let me resize a fat partition?
[11:47] <trond> tbuss: But if you want to know 100% what you are doing then you should consult someone that has more experience with the damemon than me
[11:47] <crimsun> Oswy: I need the output from those two commands pastebinned onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[11:47] <Oswy> k
[11:47] <bitwiseshiftleft> (or anything else with neither a cdrom or a ton of RAM)?
[11:47] <SirBob1701> other audio programs work too
[11:47] <black_13> azuerus keeps crapping out
[11:47] <crimsun> SirBob1701: good, so your sound issue is resolved. Excellent.
[11:47] <SirBob1701> cool
[11:47] <SirBob1701> what was it
[11:47] <trond> tbuss: yes
[11:47] <crimsun> SirBob1701: mixer setting.
[11:47] <Flannel> !install | bitwiseshiftleft, check out netinst and stuff, depending on your HW

[11:48] <emf> Hi. I just upgraded to Feisty. My touchpad's scroll wheel functionality is much slower than it was on edgy. I have to scroll further than before to have an effect. Any way to adjust this?
[11:48] <max_> setting up ftp server is like the easiest thing ever.
[11:48] <robdeman> hey I enabled multiverse but when trying to install mplayer it says: E: Package mplayer has no installation candidate
[11:48] <Flannel> emf: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support
[11:48] <salman> what would be the best way to keep kiba-dock as still as stillas possible
[11:48] <crimsun> SirBob1701: you had the optical output unmuted, which means that analog output is muted automatically for most codecs.
[11:48] <tbuss> trond: if you dont mind me asking, what do you use ftp for
[11:48] <SirBob1701> hmm
[11:48] <emet> jrib: apt-cache search [a-z]  | cat -n | grep `calc $RANDOM % 11436`  <------- My random package of the day script
[11:48] <emet> lol
[11:48] <trond> tbuss: File sharing :)
[11:48] <emet> it doesn
[11:48] <jrib> robdeman: make sure you have edgy multiverse not just edgy-backports multiverse, pastebin your sources.list if you are not sure
[11:48] <SirBob1701> wonder how i did that
[11:48] <emet> work so well
[11:48] <SirBob1701> your a life saver amn
[11:48] <Oswy> I put that into the text tand it just outputted it.
[11:48] <robdeman> jrib ok

[11:48] <SirBob1701> stereo works better then before too haha
[11:48] <Oswy> There.
[11:49] <salman> i know it going to move no matter what but how can I make it move less
[11:49] <tbuss> trond: if you get time check my thread I posted, it goes into detail exactly what I want to do
[11:49] <Oswy> Or am I on the wrong track completely?
[11:49] <bitwiseshiftleft> ubotu: thanks, i'll see if there's enough memory to do that
[11:49] <sabiancra> is there any way to copy a file and have it report back the speed at which the copy is occurring
[11:49] <tbuss> trond: thanks for your help
[11:49] <persept> does anyone know when the 7.04 beta will be availible for PowerPC processor?
[11:49] <trond> tbuss: But can't you use samba or a local network sollution instead of ftp?
[11:49] <Flannel> persept: it is
[11:49] <crimsun> persept: it is already.
[11:49] <emet> what is a regexp for only research begining
[11:49] <emet> $ ?
[11:49] <emet> or ^
[11:49] <persept> are you sure, I couldn't find it
[11:49] <sabiancra> ^
[11:49] <_Mr_Denix_> RoundyT1 how is it going ?
[11:49] <TheCan> Hi - does someone know how i can trigger the dirty flag in a ext3 fs please?
[11:49] <Oswy> crimsun, was that the URL you were looking for?
[11:49] <tbuss> trond: family is seperated geographically
[11:49] <lior> hello
[11:49] <max_> WooT!  I'm running Linux - Mac OSX - and Windows XP all at the same time on only 1GB ram - and it kicks butt!
[11:49] <crimsun> persept: http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/mirror/cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/7.04/beta/
[11:49] <trond> tbuss: Ah
[11:50] <tbuss> trond: would like for them to be able to download pictures and home movies of the young ones
[11:50] <lior> can anyone help with edgy install on LG laptop K2 - I can't get the wireless working
[11:50] <SirBob1701> crimsun dont suppose you see in there why my other speakers for surround sound don't work?
[11:50] <max_> tbuss : check ouot samba
[11:50] <persept> crimsun: thanks, the mirrors i looked at didn't have the ppc version
[11:50] <crimsun> Oswy: that's just the commands. I need the _output_ from those commands.
[11:50] <max_> its a network filesystem
[11:50] <sabiancra> ^ <-- start $ < -- end
[11:50] <Oswy> Hmm.
[11:50] <Flannel> tbuss: might be easier to setup just apache, if it's only going to be pulling
[11:50] <Oswy> What syntax?
[11:51] <max_> nfs? samba?   seems like thats what he wants
[11:51] <Oswy> If it matters.
[11:51] <Oswy> I mean, I've been doing it on this computer, not the one with the problem, obviously.
[11:51] <Oswy> But there doesn't seem to BE an output.
[11:51] <krolben> jrib: It worked - I've now got Apache installed again. Thanks a lot :)
[11:51] <tbuss> Flannel: I wanted the interface to be clean and simple, would I need to host a web page to achieve the same results as ftp
[11:51] <crimsun> SirBob1701: amixer set 'Duplicate Front' unmute
[11:51] <jrib> krolben: yw
[11:51] <sabiancra> i wish cp was more powerful
[11:51] <max_> tbuss: youo can have drive F: on their windows computer connect to your /home/shares folder - i used the walkthru on ubuntuguide.org and set up samba really nicely
[11:51] <crimsun> sabiancra: to accomplish what? You likely just need a different utility, like tar.
[11:52] <Flannel> tbuss: Well, you could either have an ftp server on your home machine, or a http server.  The former would require them to get/use an FTP client, the latter, merely a webbrowser
[11:52] <tbuss> max_: is this possible if two machines are separated geographically
[11:52] <sabiancra> i am copying large directories to another destination but i want it to skip existing files
[11:52] <Oswy> Should I do it in Bash, or what?
[11:52] <crimsun> Oswy: it needs to be done on the computer with the problem
[11:52] <max_> tbuss: as long as their connected to your network in any way
[11:52] <Oswy> How can I do it if I can't connect to the internet?
[11:52] <Oswy> :/
[11:52] <trond> Flannel: Ftp can easily be used from a webbrowser too :)
[11:53] <sabiancra> destination is on another local drive
[11:53] <trond> Not ideal though
[11:53] <Oswy> Uhh, can I just ping a website and see if I get a response?
[11:53] <salman> help plz
[11:53] <max_> tbuss: including internet
[11:53] <Oswy> Yeah, lemme try that, haha.
[11:53] <tbuss> Flannel: I was told that ftp_conntrack would allow them to use the PASV ports
[11:53] <jesusphreak> hello, I've used BootCamp to setup a second partition on my hard drive that I now want to install Linux on; but before I do that I need to make that partition free space; how do I do that?
[11:54] <salman> how do i keep kiba-dock still?
[11:54] <sabiancra> cp has no way to skip copying over existing files, either it tosses an error or overwrites
[11:54] <Flannel> tbuss: Assuming they're only downloading, http will be a lot faster than ftp as well.
[11:54] <tbuss> Flannel: enabling them to open an FTP link in web browser
[11:54] <Oswy> I shall ping google.
[11:54] <max_> jesusphreak - in your partition editor (BootCamp) clikc ono the partition that you want to be free space.   press delete.   press ok.   press apply.
[11:54] <Oswy> Let us see if that works.
[11:54] <crimsun> sabiancra: you're better off using shell script magic
[11:54] <tbuss> Flannel: which would be easier to config apache or ftp
[11:55] <Flannel> tbuss: shrug.  httpd is a lot simpler to setup, in my mind.  Oh hey, you just asked that.
[11:55] <lior> can anyone help with edgy install on LG laptop K2 - I can't get the wireless working
[11:55] <salman> or make it look like this: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=16224&d=1159049358
[11:55] <sunexplodes> having trouble making multimedia keys work with Sonata/MPD
[11:55] <max_> tbuss: sudo apt-get install proftpd
[11:55] <sunexplodes> any ideas?
[11:55] <Flannel> tbuss: Apache is a single package, with no config afterwards, just fill up your contnt directories (or ~/public_html)
[11:55] <max_> tbuss: then all they have to do is ftp://your ip
[11:55] <Oswy> wtf, how manyn pings does this do?
[11:55] <Oswy> It's on 124.
[11:56] <tbuss> max_ Im running proftpd right now, I'm just unsure how to configure to meet my specific needs
[11:56] <max_> tbuss: just make sure you open port 21 in your router and in linux's iptables
[11:56] <Oswy> Maybe pinging 127.0.0.1 wasn't such a good idea, argh.
[11:56] <jhornick> Oswy: it does them till you tell it to stop
[11:56] <Oswy> I typed stop and nothing happened.
[11:56] <Oswy> How do I stop it?
[11:56] <max_> tbuss: make a user with adduser - then put the files you want to share in the home folder ofo the new user
[11:56] <trond> tbuss: Did you try gproftp?
[11:56] <jhornick> ctrl+c aka ^c is the break command
[11:56] <catid> the programs in my Session don't run until a few minutes after GNOME starts
[11:56] <Oswy> k
[11:56] <tbuss> max_ I opened port 21 on the config file but not for the router?
[11:56] <Oswy> Thanks.
[11:56] <jhornick> np
[11:56] <trond> tbuss: All those things you ask for can be done by fiddeling in the user settings in there
[11:56] <Oswy> OK, so yeah, my internet is indeed not working.
[11:57] <max_> tbuss: you need to "port forward" in your rouoter so that port 21 isn't blocked by your router's hardware firewall
[11:57] <max_> tbuss: same with running any service
[11:57] <tbuss> trond: thanks, i'm getting some very useful info trying to absorb all of it right now
[11:57] <max_> tbuss: usually its http://192.168.1.1 to connect to your rouoter
[11:57] <crimsun> Oswy: copy it down by hand.
[11:57] <max_> tbuss:; what kind of router do you have
[11:57] <Oswy> The whole thing?
[11:57] <Oswy> It's very long.
[11:57] <crimsun> Oswy: yes.
[11:57] <Oswy> I don't even think I can see the whole thing.
[11:57] <Oswy> k
[11:57] <crimsun> oh come on, it's not like you can't write
[11:57] <max_> trond: its gproftpd
[11:58] <Oswy> Haha.
[11:58] <tbuss> max_ you had to ask ;) its a microsoft wireless router
[11:58] <Oswy> But I can't see the whole thing; I'd have to scroll up.
[11:58] <OuZo> i am trying to find htdocs, a part of apache. does anybody know were it is? thanks
[11:58] <tbuss> max_  will i get in trouble for posting that
[11:58] <Differ> what happened to linuxforums.org?
[11:58] <max_> tbuss: it's documentation will tell you how to enable services so you can host an ftp server
[11:58] <jhornick> OuZo: /var/www
[11:58] <tbuss> max_  but basically what I want to do is open port 21 on my router correct
[11:58] <factotum> ive been thinking about serving my own website, looks interesting
[11:58] <max_> yes
[11:59] <max_> or else you will get a connection refused when u try to connect to your ftp server (which is active right now)
[11:59] <crimsun> Oswy: use shift+pageup and shift+pagedown
[11:59] <Oswy> Right.
[11:59] <Oswy> k
