[12:00] <jhornick> OuZo: that's the default location, /etc/apache2 is the place where you can configure that
[12:00] <cheeseboy> anyone?
[12:01] <max_> cheeseboy: apt-cache search kernel headers
[12:01] <tbuss> max_ okay I'm going to try and configure this thing. If it doesnt take too long I'll post back
[12:01] <Oswy> Do you need the whole thing, or just a certain part?
[12:01] <Kunk> . Using Apache2+PHP5+Postgresql with libapache2-mod-php5 finally showing up in mods-available mods-installed, loading a webpage still gives me' Want todownlaod ...' I have the x-application-httpd thingy correct for php and have relaoded apache2. How can I get it work? This is really challenging . . .help?
[12:01] <ektobot> hello, where is the file with all the bootup options????
[12:01] <catid> problem: my session apps don't start until 3 or so minutes after GNOME starts
[12:01] <crimsun> Oswy: the whole thing
[12:01] <Oswy> Ugh.
[12:01] <Oswy> k
[12:01] <Oswy> I'll get back to you in a long time, then.
[12:01] <max_> cheeseboy: that will give you a list of available packages to install that contain "kernel headers" in the description
[12:01] <crimsun> Oswy: well, just copy down the multimedia audio controller one
[12:02] <Oswy> k
[12:02] <max_> ektobot: /boot/grub/grub.conf
[12:02] <Oswy> Which one is that?
[12:02] <ektobot> thanks
[12:02] <Oswy> Lemme look.
[12:02] <max_> ektobot
[12:02] <max_> ektobot: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:02] <ektobot> ?
[12:02] <Flannel> ektobot, max_: menu.lst not grub.conf
[12:02] <max_> sorry
[12:02] <Oswy> Yeah, I dunno which one it is.
[12:02] <ektobot> ahh thats better thabks
[12:02] <syke> I noticed that Feisty doesn't have the latest vesion of valgrind, which would be useful when reporting bugs. Where do I file a request for valgrind (or other packages) to be updated?
[12:03] <crimsun> Oswy: in ``lspci -v'', look for the one with "multimedia audio controller" or the like
[12:03] <crimsun> syke: we're way past upstream version freeze (UVF) for main
[12:03] <crimsun> [valgrind is a main package] 
[12:03] <max_> syke: have you all the repositories enabled?  backports?
[12:03] <Oswy> Display controller?
[12:03] <syke> max: I believe so
[12:03] <crimsun> Oswy: no, _audio_
[12:04] <Oswy> k
[12:04] <crimsun> Oswy: err, sorry, what was your issue? sound? nic?
[12:04] <Oswy> Got it.
[12:04] <_Mr_Denix_> hi ! could i get some help on gproftpd please ?
[12:04] <crimsun> Oswy: I normally deal with audio, so I may have, inadvertently, told you the wrong keyword.
[12:04] <max_> syke : find the deb for the program you want the latest version of.    from its official web page or repository.
[12:04] <Oswy> Heh, k.
[12:04] <max_> Mr_Denix : u just missed that lecture
[12:04] <crimsun> Oswy: right, you don't want audio, you want "network"
[12:04] <Oswy> k
[12:05] <ektobot> it wont let me edit the startup options says i dont have privaligas to save the file
[12:05] <Foon> oi, I've freshly installed Edgy LAMP, but I'm quite a newbie, how do install a window manager (like fluxbox, say)?
[12:05] <Oswy> Found it.
[12:05] <crimsun> Foon: sudo aptitude install x-window-system-core fluxbox
[12:05] <Foon> I've used Fedora Core 4 before, on that I used yum instead of apt-get
[12:05] <xst> Will Feisty come with beryl as default?
[12:05] <max_> _Mr_Denix_ it's better if you just ask your question.... and not ask if you can ask.
[12:05] <_Falkon_> I just installed the compiz packages from Synaptic.  How do I start compiz now?
[12:05] <Foon> ah, aptitude rather than apt-get?
[12:05] <syke> max: it may be quite worthwhile to upgrade it since it's used heavily by support people when trying to narrow bugs
[12:05] <Flannel> xst: no
[12:06] <_Mr_Denix_> max_ its installed i have configured 1 user  it was   giving me an error (*group nobody) i edited  gproftpd.conf with sudo gedit and now i have 4 errors :D
[12:06] <crimsun> Foon: doesn't much matter, TBH.
[12:06] <BFTD> Hi, I get this error when I login, "Unable to find Internet Address please add (system name) to you /etc/hosts file to solve this problem", I am connecting via a wireless device that uses ndiswrapper, and it shows the link light on and blinking which means that it is connected to the router
[12:06] <max_> Foon : apt pwns yum =] 
[12:06] <_Mr_Denix_> max_ i will keep that in mind thank you
[12:06] <xst> Flannel: ok (damn :-)  )
[12:06] <_Falkon_> Feisty comes with compiz
[12:06] <syke> even if it's just the suppression files
[12:06] <xst> compiz?
[12:06] <xst> Why compiz?
[12:06] <lior> ok, let's try again - does any one know how to get wifi working on LG K2 pro laptop... or at least how to find which wifi card this laptop has ?
[12:06] <Flannel> xst: It doesn't come with any of those things by default.  But you can add them.
[12:06] <_Falkon_> idk
[12:06] <Laibsch> Is it possible to create a boot floppy with grub and boot from a 250G HD when the mainboard does not support such large drives?
[12:06] <_Falkon_> it runs on older machines than beryl
[12:06] <ektobot> how many boot up options should there be for edgy?
[12:06] <Laibsch> lior: lspci?
[12:06] <max_> _Mr_Denix_ you didn't back up your configuration before you messed with it ?
[12:06] <Foon> max_: heh, but yum had a search function which I was used to.. *shrug*
[12:06] <_Falkon_> less intensive
[12:06] <Foon> anywho
[12:06] <SeveredCross> ektobot: 3?
[12:07] <Flannel> xst: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support, I believe beryl.  But, yeah, not by default.  Easy to enable I believe.
[12:07] <ektobot> it looks like i have 2 versions of ubuntu on startup?
[12:07] <Foon> I'll try aptitude and get back to you
[12:07] <SeveredCross> Assuming oyu only have Edgy and no XP.
[12:07] <_Mr_Denix_> max_ i did only 1 change to .conf i can restore it
[12:07] <crimsun> ektobot: what are the entries?
[12:07] <SeveredCross> ektobot: You have your kernel, a recovery mode for your kernel and memtest86+?
[12:07] <lior> Laibsch, I tried but I can't find which is it - do u want me to paste ?
[12:07] <ektobot> yeah then another set
[12:07] <Oswy> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12058/
[12:07] <BFTD> anyone?
[12:07] <_Falkon_> xst: the feisty beta has compiz preinstalled, but it's crap right now
[12:07] <SeveredCross> ektobot: Did you just update your kernel recently?
[12:07] <_Falkon_> I couldn't even get the cube to work, but maybe that's just user error
[12:08] <ektobot> i did a full install/format over previous ubuntu
[12:08] <crimsun> Oswy: ok, now I need the corresponding ``lspci -vvn' entry
[12:08] <_Mr_Denix_> max_ this is what i get   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12059/
[12:08] <Oswy> k
[12:08] <_Falkon_> so does anyone know how to run compiz after installing the packages from synaptic???
[12:08] <SeveredCross> ektobot: That's interesting, there's no reason why you should get multiple kernels on star....
[12:09] <_Falkon_> ektobot:  I get multiple kernels, too
[12:09] <_Falkon_> idk why
[12:09] <SeveredCross> After a format and reinstall, you shouldn't
[12:09] <Oswy> You mean the 00:0c.0?
[12:09] <SeveredCross> Unless the installer didn't really format...
[12:09] <ektobot> SeveredCross: yeah it happened last time on my previous install because it would crash on installation
[12:09] <crimsun> Oswy: yes
[12:09] <Oswy> k cool
[12:09] <sabiancra> BFTD, do you have an IP, can you ping exteral IPs
[12:09] <_Falkon_> idk I didn't have a crash or anything
[12:09] <BFTD> sabiancra no I can't ping IPs
[12:09] <ektobot> SeveredCross: last time i edited the menu.ls but now it wont let me save the file
[12:10] <_Falkon_> does anyone know how to run compiz after installing the packages from synaptic???
[12:10] <syke> max: if I create an updated package, will it be rolled in?
[12:10] <Flannel> _Falkon_: #ubuntu-effects forCompiz support, thanks
[12:10] <sabiancra> BFTD, do you have an IP from your router
[12:10] <ektobot> _Falkon_: add remove prog
[12:10] <lior> Laibsch, can u help here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12060/
[12:10] <max_> _Mr_Denix_ enter ur hostname or ip into gproftpd ?    i dont remember - i dont use it anymore
[12:10] <_Falkon_> flannel: thanks
[12:10] <max_> _Mr_Denix_ but you shouold check ur configuration in the gui
[12:10] <_Falkon_> ektobot: what?
[12:10] <BFTD> sabiancra yes it does give me one
[12:10] <_Falkon_> ektobot: why add/remove?
[12:10] <sabiancra> can you ping the router
[12:11] <RoundyT1> Why can't I view my Ubuntu icons and Fonts....the only thing that shows up are the standard GNOME icons and fonts. everything is ALOT bigger than normal...
[12:11] <SeveredCross> ektobot: Did you remember to sudo?
[12:11] <_Mr_Denix_> i did checked it and i did enter my ip :) thank you ! i will keep searching for the solution
[12:11] <_Mr_Denix_> max_ i did checked it and i did enter my ip :) thank you ! i will keep searching for the solution
[12:11] <ektobot> _Falkon_: dunno somtimes you have to add the prog no after synaptic?
[12:11] <Flannel> syke: Oddly, I believe Feisty ought to have 3.2.2, but, 3.2.1 isn't too terrible.  Someone mustve overlooked it.
[12:11] <ektobot> _Falkon_: i could be very wrong tho
[12:11] <RoundyT1> Why can't I view my Ubuntu icons and Fonts....the only thing that shows up are the standard GNOME icons and fonts. everything is ALOT bigger than normal...
[12:11] <sabiancra> BFTD, can you ping the router
[12:11] <BFTD> sabiancra let me try
[12:11] <_Falkon_> ok
[12:11] <ektobot> SeveredCross: sudo what??
[12:12] <ektobot> SeveredCross: can u send me the teminal code
[12:12] <Oswy> crimsun, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12062/
[12:12] <SeveredCross> ektobot: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst or whatever the filename is.
[12:12] <SeveredCross> Then remove the extra kernels (the ones that don't boot)
[12:12] <BFTD> sabiancra yes I can
[12:13] <SeveredCross> Though, before removing anything and saving the file, paste it into a pastebin and send the link, I'd like to look at your menu.lst
[12:13] <ektobot> SeveredCross: thanks
[12:13] <RoundyT1> Why can't I view my Ubuntu icons and Fonts....the only thing that shows up are the standard GNOME icons and fonts. everything is ALOT bigger than normal...
[12:13] <SeveredCross> Yep, no problem.
[12:13] <sabiancra> BFTD, trying pinging 128.210.7.199
[12:13] <kgrad> hi everyone, would anyone entertain a quick question about s-video out?
[12:13] <ektobot> SeveredCross: what could be the reason for 2 versions being there
[12:13] <SeveredCross> RoundyT1: Theme change? Did you accidentally remove the ubuntu-desktop package? (I had that happen to me once, it was very strange.)
[12:13] <SeveredCross> ektobot: I don't know to be totally honest...An improper format?
[12:13] <SeveredCross> kgrad: What's your card?
[12:13] <BFTD> sabiancra "destination to host unreachable"
[12:14] <kgrad> SeveredCross: it's a radeon 7000/VE
[12:14] <sabiancra> ok, seems like your router is blocking your IP
[12:14] <BFTD> I ping gogle.com and get "unknown host gogle.com"
[12:14] <ektobot> SeveredCross: could it signify a root kit?
[12:14] <BFTD> sabiancra oh?
[12:14] <crimsun> Oswy: ok, is this under edgy?
[12:14] <sabiancra> BFTD, right, because it cannot resolve the hostname to a DNS
[12:14] <Oswy> 6.10, yeah.
[12:14] <sabiancra> BFTD, yes, either that or your router/modem isn't working at all
[12:14] <BFTD> sabiancra I can probably figure it out then, thanks
[12:15] <SeveredCross> ektobot: I doubt it....
[12:15] <SeveredCross> kgrad: YOU need the ATI driver.
[12:15] <kgrad> SeveredCross: i've been trying to get tv-out working without any luck.  I noticed that most people have tv-out at least working at boot time, i don't get anything ever.  I wonder if i should update my BIOS?
[12:15] <sabiancra> BFTD, check to see if you have a MAC address list set up on the router
[12:15] <SeveredCross> !ati > kgrad
[12:15] <ektobot> SeveredCross: how would i find rootkits if they were installed
[12:15] <SeveredCross> kgrad, check the private message you received from ubotu
[12:15] <SeveredCross> ektobot: I honestly have no idea, I'm sure there's a package out there.
[12:15] <ektobot> SeveredCross: thanks
[12:15] <SeveredCross> Open Synaptic and look for a package that involves rootkits via the search function.
[12:16] <lockdown> FTD, can you ping 72.14.207.99?
[12:16] <catid> ektobot: usually they replace some common applications..  reinstalling all your packages might work
[12:16] <RoundyT1> SeveredCross, It says ubuntu-desktop is the newest version
[12:16] <crimsun> Oswy: try using ndiswrapper
[12:16] <lockdown> ektobot, rootkit hunter
[12:16] <_Mr_Denix_> i'm getting this error  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12063/  on GPROFTPD . already checked .conf . any ideas ?
[12:16] <freshmeat> hi guys
[12:16] <Oswy> !ndiswrapper
[12:16] <kgrad> SeveredCross: eh i'm using IRC inside of a java applet, i don't think i got it.  can i sign back on with a real client and the receive it?
[12:16] <lockdown> ektobot, also do ls -al /tmp and /var/tmp and look for strange directories including extra . and .. directories,  that mean their is whitespace after the second nmae
[12:17] <Oswy> Hmm.
[12:17] <RoundyT1> it works fine in my Gnome session but when i do it in Xgl session, nothing shows but the stupid gnome crap icons
[12:17] <Oswy> I'll chheck the wiki.
[12:17] <freshmeat> I just installed dapper on my laptop and grub isn't "seeing" my vista to boot into it
[12:17] <freshmeat> can anyone point me to a guide on recovering that in grub?
[12:17] <SeveredCross> !ati | kgrad
[12:17] <RoundyT1> freshmeat, why not edgy?
[12:17] <catid> problem: it takes about 3 minutes for my GNOME Session apps to start up after log in
[12:17] <SeveredCross> Erf, he left.
[12:17] <SeveredCross> Bah
[12:18] <freshmeat> kept getting md5 problems and was sent a free LTS cd
[12:18] <factotum> freshmeat: this might involve editing your grub config
[12:18] <_Mr_Denix_> RoundyT1 did changing themes work for you ?
[12:18] <SeveredCross> Adding Vista is pretty easy...
[12:18] <SeveredCross> Should be almost exactly the same as adding XP.
[12:18] <freshmeat> factotum I already had vista installed
[12:18] <RoundyT1> _Mr_Denix_, what do you mean?
[12:18] <Oswy> Ugh, crimsun, how can I install ndiswrapper without having a connection?
[12:18] <Oswy> Or is it already built in?
[12:18] <SeveredCross> freshmeat: Is Vista on the primary drive?
[12:18] <freshmeat> yes, it's a single drive system
[12:18] <SeveredCross> Okay...
[12:18] <Oswy> Yeah, it says it needs utility packages.
[12:18] <mc44> !dvd
[12:18] <SeveredCross> You'll need to open your menu.lst
[12:19] <factotum> freshmeat: oh thats good, check your grub config
[12:19] <lior> freshmeat, just try installing a newer version of ubuntu
[12:19] <freshmeat> where is menu.lst stored?
[12:19] <RoundyT1> _Mr_Denix_, I am still having the problem.
[12:19] <SeveredCross> To do that, type gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst at a terminal.
[12:19] <freshmeat> ../etc?
[12:19] <_Mr_Denix_> RoundyT1 you said you had problems with your fonts , so i suggested you would change your theme so that will restore your settings
[12:19] <freshmeat> okay
[12:19] <freshmeat> brb
[12:19] <SeveredCross> Then, to the very bottom of the file, you should add something like this:
[12:19] <SeveredCross> title Windows Vista
[12:19] <SeveredCross> root (hd0,0)
[12:19] <SeveredCross> makeactive
[12:19] <SeveredCross> chainloader +1
[12:19] <SeveredCross> I think that's all you need.
[12:19] <freshmeat> :)
[12:19] <RoundyT1> nope...
[12:19] <GionnyBoss> RoundyT1: you have problems with your font with all application? or maybe just XMMS and aMSN?
[12:19] <SeveredCross> Save your grub.lst, reboot and you should see an option for Vista. Selecting it should boot Vista.
[12:19] <freshmeat> hoppefully the upgrade from dapper to edgy will behave
[12:20] <Oswy> So crimsun, I'll need to download ndiswrapper here, get Windows working on my other computer, then transfer them over and retry?
[12:20] <SeveredCross> If you just dist-upgrade, it shouldn't replace your grub config.
[12:20] <freshmeat> !upgrade
[12:20] <RoundyT1> GionnyBoss, all applications... one second I'll get a screenshot up in a sec
[12:20] <Differ> ubotwo is supybot
[12:21] <SeveredCross> Huh?
[12:21] <_Mr_Denix_> i'm getting this error  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12063/  on GPROFTPD . already checked .conf . any ideas ?
[12:21] <ubotwo> Differ: Error: "is" is not a valid command.
[12:21] <GionnyBoss> RoundyT1: what exactly is your problem with fonts?
[12:21] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: Pastebin your .conf and send a link?
[12:21] <SeveredCross> Please. :)
[12:21] <_Mr_Denix_> SeverdCross one sec
[12:22] <RoundyT1> GionnyBoss,  its not just my fonts, its my icons, everything is just gnome...not the ubuntu set
[12:22] <SeveredCross> RoundyT1, did you answer my question earlier about accidentally removing the ubuntu-desktop package?
[12:22] <ck42> trying to setup distcc...running into first weird problem.  Where the frell is the make.conf file in ubuntu??  Why is it NOT in /etc ?
[12:22] <GionnyBoss> RoundyT1: changing theme? :P
[12:22] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross     .conf   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12064/
[12:22] <Flannel> SeveredCross, RoundyT1, ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage, removing it doesn't hurt anything (or even do anything)
[12:23] <RoundyT1> SeveredCross, yes, i sudo apt-get it...and it said it was installed just fine.
[12:23] <Foon> do I need to install x-window-system-core in order to find fluxbox?
[12:23] <_Mr_Denix_> GionnyBoss :)) very innovative
[12:23] <Foon> in aptitude's interface, I tried searching for fluxbox, and got no results
[12:23] <Foon> 0.o
[12:23] <twysted> Foon> sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[12:23] <Flannel> Foon: you'll need to install 'fluxbox' and 'xorg-server'
[12:23] <Foon> oh okay
[12:23] <Flannel> Foon: er, maybe xserver-xorg instead of the latter.  soemthing like that.
[12:23] <RoundyT1> GionnyBoss, no, i use emerald and beryl for themes
[12:23] <GionnyBoss> _Mr_Denix_: lol
[12:24] <Oswy> crimsun, you there?
[12:24] <twysted> Foon, you may need to enable the repositories but you really shouldnt have to
[12:24] <Foon> because when I tried running (6:05:30 PM) crimsun: Foon: "sudo aptitude install x-window-system-core fluxbox" it gave me stacks of completely unrelated packages
[12:24] <Foon> twysted: how?
[12:24] <ck42> Anyone using distcc?
[12:24] <Flannel> Foon: you'll need to enable universe in order to get fluxbox
[12:24] <twysted> Foon> that is normal there are extra packages that need to be installed for fluxbox to work
[12:24] <Foon> how?
[12:24] <Flannel> Foon: edit /etc/apt/sources.list, and uncomment the universe lines
[12:24] <crimsun> Oswy: I'm in office hours now, so I'm fairly busy.
[12:24] <quaal> hello i'm trying to setup this raid1 array in md.. im not sure what i'm doing wrong here http://pastebin.ca/409802
[12:24] <RoundyT1> why doesn't my "Ctrl+ Printscreen work"?
[12:24] <Oswy> Ahh, OK.
[12:25] <Oswy> So I'll need to find a way to reinstall Windows just to download the ndiswrapper drivers?
[12:25] <Foon> Flannel: k I'll try that, brb need to plug the keyboard into the other machine, heh
[12:25] <Oswy> Or is there another way?
[12:25] <pike_> Foon: then sudo apt-get update to load new sources.list
[12:25] <twysted> RountyT1 i thought it was ALT + Print Screen ;)
[12:25] <_Mr_Denix_> RoundyT1 try using just the    printscreen button
[12:25] <robdeman> what package do I need to run php from the terminal (commandline) ?
[12:25] <syke> Flannel: ok, cool. should I file a bug, or..?
[12:25] <Oswy> Oh wait, got it.
[12:25] <frano486> ciao a tutti
[12:25] <syke> I'd mainly be concerned about false positives on all platfrosm and crashes under amd64
[12:25] <Oswy> Will the alternate CD suffice?
[12:25] <Foon> pike_: k, thanks :)
[12:25] <factotum> what is needed to make the root (su) gnome theme the same as users? A symlink to something or other??
[12:26] <syke> just updating the suppression files would be very helpful from a support perspective
[12:26] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: There's your problem.
[12:26] <Foon> brb
[12:26] <SeveredCross> Your anonymous user has the group nobody.
[12:26] <SeveredCross> Which is a non-existent group.
[12:26] <Recyclable> i'm a bit lost here
[12:26] <SeveredCross> It's fine if the username is nobody, but I think nobody is in the group "users"
[12:26] <cheeseboy> wheres source list?
[12:26] <Recyclable> could someone point me in the right direction of the AMD64 nvidia drivers?
[12:26] <RoundyT1> my alt or ctrl printscreen doesn't seem to work
[12:26] <SeveredCross> Recyclable: Uh, those exist? I think they're only 32-bit.
[12:27] <SeveredCross> RoundyT1: Ditch alt and ctrl.
[12:27] <Recyclable> oh cocksocks :(
[12:27] <SeveredCross> Just Print Screen should work.
[12:27] <SeveredCross> I'm not sure though.
[12:27] <Recyclable> don't think so then
[12:27] <twysted> Factotum what do you mean you should be able to select the same theme for the user as root uses
[12:27] <cheeseboy> wheres source list?
[12:27] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross i have edited that .conf and at group i've change nobody with admin and i got 4 errors instead fo one
[12:27] <SeveredCross> Best place to find them would be ati.amd.com
[12:27] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: Make it "users"
[12:27] <SeveredCross> (Sans quotes)
[12:27] <Recyclable> any other way of getting ubuntu to display on my native 1440x900?
[12:27] <Oswy> Ahhhhhhh.
[12:27] <SeveredCross> cheeseboy: /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:27] <Oswy> How do I configure a wireless network if I only have access to the terminal?
[12:27] <pike_> Recyclable: nv driver maybe
[12:27] <SeveredCross> Recyclable: Nope, you need the fglrx drivers to get the 1440x900 resolution.
[12:27] <Benjamin> Does Ubuntu have a flavour specifically for clustering similar to Cluster Knoppix?
[12:27] <factotum> twysted: not quite, i open synaptec and its the default gnome theme
[12:27] <SeveredCross> Oswy: iwconfig/ifconfig
[12:27] <Flannel> syke: Feisty is already in version freeze, so no.  I don't think there's anything you can do.
[12:27] <Oswy> All I need to do is connect to the router that's already out there.
[12:27] <cafuego_> Recyclable: `nvidia-glx'
[12:28] <Oswy> OK, then what?
[12:28] <SeveredCross> cafuego: He's got an ATI card.
[12:28] <SeveredCross> :)
[12:28] <SeveredCross> Er.
[12:28] <Recyclable> no
[12:28] <SeveredCross> Fudge.
[12:28] <SeveredCross> I can't read.
[12:28] <Recyclable> hahahah
[12:28] <Recyclable> :p

[12:28] <Benjamin> Does Ubuntu have a flavour specifically for clustering similar to Cluster Knoppix?
[12:28] <Flannel> factotum: you shouldn't be logging into gnome as root.
[12:28] <Recyclable> dammit, so no way then? :(
[12:28] <cafuego_> Recyclable: He asked for nvidia drivers
[12:28] <SeveredCross> Nvidia-glx is there.
[12:28] <twysted> factotum> go through the theme selector as the user, its there ;) ubuntu just has its own addon theme
[12:28] <RoundyT1> still nothing...gimp wont paste it in
[12:28] <jenda> Any idea why sudo update-manager -d doesn't allow me to upgrade to Feisty?
[12:28] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross  and now i get 4 errors after making it "users"  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12067/
[12:28] <Oswy> SeveredCross, just typing ifconfig doesn't really allow me to config it.
[12:28] <SeveredCross> Oswy: Try iwconfig
[12:28] <Oswy> Unless I'm doing something wrong, which is very likely.
[12:28] <Symmetria> can someone double check for me what za.archive.ubuntu.com resolves to (its a c-name, what does the base ip point to on your guys dns servers)
[12:28] <Oswy> So I type that, then what?
[12:29] <factotum> im not logged in as root im logged in as normal user, when I open synaptic give the password and it opens it is using a different theme than my desktop is using
[12:29] <SeveredCross> iwconfig gives you some more ways to configure your wireless network, I've never really used it though.
[12:29] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: Those are unrealted to your previous error.
[12:29] <syke> Flannel: okay, I'll see if my Canonical support person can help :)
[12:29] <pike_> jenda: no idea.. sudo sed -i 's/edgy/feisty//' /etc/apt/sources.list; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade  should assuming youre on edgy
[12:29] <Oswy> But how do I configure it?
[12:29] <Oswy> I don't see how to it by typing.
[12:29] <cafuego_> Recyclable: The're in the 'restricted' respository and also require the restricted-modules package for your kernel. After install, run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org' and tell X to su `nvidia' instead of `nv'.
[12:29] <Oswy> Uhh, hold on.
[12:29] <factotum> nevermind, i found it
[12:29] <SeveredCross> No idea...
[12:29] <Oswy> Blah, k.
[12:29] <catid> problem: it takes about 3 minutes to start up GNOME
[12:29] <SeveredCross> Let me look at your .conf again _Mr_Denix_.
[12:29] <ghetek> does anybody here have experience with UCK (http://uck.sourceforge.net/)
[12:29] <Recyclable> love you cafuego <3
[12:30] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross might not be . still they appear only when i change that nobody  from groups
[12:30] <factotum> i dont know who in their right mind would log into x as root...wierdos
[12:30] <jenda> pike_: Yes, I am. The wiki says that method is not very reliable - why would that be?
[12:30] <Flannel> pike_, jenda, don't use that method.
[12:30] <Flannel> jenda: Are you up to date in your edgy updates?
[12:30] <jenda> Flannel: very
[12:30] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross there you go my conf   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12070/
[12:30] <cafuego_> Recyclable: it's usually best to choose 'Simple' config when X asks about screens and tell it what size screen you have, after that you can select allowable resolutions from a list. Just tick '1440x900'.
[12:30] <Benjamin> Does Ubuntu have a flavour specifically for clustering similar to Cluster Knoppix?
[12:30] <jenda> Flannel: fresh install && update && upgrade
[12:30] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: Yes, because it doesn't even GET to display those, it crashes out before those when you move the group.
[12:30] <SeveredCross> Benjamin: No.
[12:31] <SeveredCross> If it did, it'd be on the page.
[12:31] <Oswy> So does anyone know how to use ifconfig to connect to a wireless network given the network name and WEP key?
[12:31] <Flannel> jenda: oh.  Do you have edgy-updates enabled?
[12:31] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: I'm not really quite sure..
[12:31] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross lol i get it
[12:31] <pike_> jenda: er youd want to use g there to that i left out so ignore that
[12:31] <EkToBoT> SeveredCross: thanks i fixed my startup options, doesthat mean i have 2 kernels installed
[12:31] <jenda> pike_: of course :)
[12:31] <SeveredCross> Oswy: I think it's ifconfig device essid "network name"
[12:31] <SeveredCross> Something like that.
[12:31] <jenda> Flannel: hmm... not sure..?
[12:31] <Oswy> Hmm.
[12:31] <Recyclable> cheers cafuego
[12:31] <cafuego_> Oswy: Yes. You can't with ifconfig, you need iwconfig.
[12:31] <Oswy> k
[12:31] <Benjamin> brilliant..thanks!
[12:31] <zeddicus2> man ifconfig
[12:31] <jenda> Flannel: if it's not by default, then no
[12:31] <SeveredCross> Or maybe iwconfig. One of the two will do it.
[12:32] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: I suspect you have some broader error that I don't really understand
[12:32] <Flannel> jenda: I have no idea if it's default.  But I believe you need it.
[12:32] <cafuego_> Oswy: iwconfig <interface> essid "ESSID" key s:ASCIIKEY
[12:32] <jenda> Flannel: and what is it?
[12:32] <SeveredCross> Aha, there it is.
[12:32] <Oswy> Ahh, k.
[12:32] <pike_> jenda: honestly though i dont know why you wouldnt just edit the sources.list it is dependable ive never really even used the gui update tool
[12:32] <RoundyT1> OK--everyone that was helping me, Beryl works fine, this is a screen shot to help describe lol what's going on! -------  http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/566/screenshotos8.png
[12:32] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross  broader ?  take me slow, i'm just few days old in ubuntu       :P
[12:32] <Flannel> jenda: the edgy-updates repositories.  just like there's 'edgy' and 'edgy-backports' and stuff.
[12:32] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: It appears that it crashes when it tries to get your machine's IP from its hostname...
[12:32] <jenda> ok...
 being what, ESSID being the name, and ASCIIKEY being the WEP key?
[12:32] <hase> I'm having a lot of trouble trying to install nvidia drivers
[12:33] <Flannel> jenda: pastebin your sources.list
[12:33] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross should i change the ip to my hostname ?
 is the name of the interface (eth0, eth1, etc.)
[12:33] <SeveredCross> You're correct on the others.
[12:33] <Oswy> Oh, k.
[12:33] <Oswy> k
[12:33] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: No.....
[12:33] <SeveredCross> That's not it.
[12:33] <cafuego_> Oswy: intercace being eth1 or wlan0 or somesuch
[12:33] <EkToBoT> i have a problem with my sound, even tho i select the correct device it still wont work
[12:33] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_, check /etc/hosts (i think it's /etc/hosts)
[12:33] <jenda> Flannel: found it, and it's enabled
[12:33] <SeveredCross> Does it have something like "mrdenix 127.0.0.1
[12:33] <EkToBoT> but it worked yesturday lol
[12:33] <jenda> Flannel: I'll try enabling the rest of the basic repos
[12:33] <Oswy> How do I get out of the man page?
[12:33] <Oswy> Haha.
[12:33] <Flannel> jenda: hmm.  I'm not sure.  You might ask in #ubuntu+1, they'll probably know precisely what is wrong.
[12:34] <Recyclable> cafuego: sorry to sound appaulingly stupid, but how do I get the restricted kernel?
[12:34] <Thewarder> I have a system recovery cd/dvd ,but its forgateway.
[12:34] <cafuego_> Oswy: 'q'
[12:34] <Flannel> Oswy: q
[12:34] <Oswy> k
[12:34] <Bright-Light> How can I partition my HDD and install Windows?
[12:34] <cafuego_> Recyclable: 'sudo apt-get install restricted-modules-$(uname -r)'
[12:34] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross  /etc/hosts  or   /etc/hosts.conf  ?
[12:34] <Recyclable> <3.
[12:34] <RoundyT1> _Mr_Denix_,  http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/566/screenshotos8.png
[12:34] <cafuego_> Oswy: No, 'q', not 'k' ;-)
[12:34] <SeveredCross> Oh, hosts.conf probably.
[12:34] <freshmeat> SeveredCross: the grub option doesnt come up
[12:34] <Thewarder> anyone know if it would work on a HP?
[12:34] <RoundyT1> GionnyBoss, http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/566/screenshotos8.png
[12:34] <freshmeat> could it be the root (hd0,0) option
[12:34] <freshmeat> ?
[12:34] <Foon> sources.list is readonly
[12:34] <SeveredCross> freshmeat: Hmm? After editing your grub.conf?
[12:35] <Bright-Light> How can I partition my HDD and install Windows?
[12:35] <SeveredCross> Nope, that's right I think..Unless it's hd(0,0)
[12:35] <Foon> I tried chmod +rw sources.list without success
[12:35] <freshmeat> editing my menu.lst, didnt edit grub.conf
[12:35] <Foon> how do I make it writable?
[12:35] <SeveredCross> Bright-Light: You'll need to have a boot disk handy first, Windows will overwrite MBR.
[12:35] <Oswy> "SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not permitted."
[12:35] <Oswy> wtf
[12:35] <Foon> writeable*?
[12:35] <SeveredCross> freshmeat: Hmm, then edit your grub.conf?
[12:35] <cafuego_> Oswy: prepend 'sudo'
[12:35] <SeveredCross> Oswy: sudo ifconfig
[12:35] <SeveredCross> :)
[12:35] <Flannel> cafuego_: that only installs the current version.  Recyclable, you'll want to install "linux-restricted-modules-[whatever kernel you have, probably generic] "
[12:35] <Oswy> Haha, k.
[12:35] <freshmeat> oh i totally missed your instructions on that
[12:35] <freshmeat> lol
[12:35] <addams> how do i run phpmyadmin ?
[12:35] <freshmeat> is that in /boot/grub/?
[12:35] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12073/  /etc/hosts
[12:35] <Oswy> Operation not supported.
[12:36] <Bright-Light> How can I partition my HDD and install Windows? Please? Is there a way to install Windows without a disk?
[12:36] <_dani> hi all, i want to change the yahoo room list locale (default tu 'us').. any idea?
[12:36] <Flannel> freshmeat: Ubuntu uses menu.lst not grub.conf
[12:36] <SeveredCross> Bright-Light: No....
[12:36] <Oswy> What the hell does Operation not supported mean?
[12:36] <Recyclable> erm I just got this error :\
[12:36] <Bright-Light> How can I partition my HDD and install Windows?
[12:36] <Oswy> in this case.
[12:36] <Recyclable> E: Couldn't find package restricted-modules-2.6.10-5-amd64-generic
[12:36] <RoundyT1> SeveredCross, http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/566/screenshotos8.png
[12:36] <Oswy> Like, does that mean there's a problem with the connection?
[12:36] <_Mr_Denix_> RoundyT1 your fonts are not standard but they are readable
[12:36] <Flannel> Recyclable: You're on edgy? or dapper?
[12:36] <Oswy> internally
[12:36] <SeveredCross> Bright-Light: You can partition via GParted
[12:36] <Recyclable> erm I honestly have no idea
[12:36] <Oswy> Or is it just bad syntax or something?
[12:36] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: Hmm, not quite sure what to make of that.
[12:37] <Flannel> Recyclable: `lsb_release -a`
[12:37] <RoundyT1> ya, so i wonder what i did wrong.
[12:37] <Recyclable> I just reinstalled grub after about a year of non-use
[12:37] <Foon> anyone? how do I write to sources.list? the file is readonly, I tried chmod +rw but it won't let me change the permissions on it (even with sudo)
[12:37] <ghetek> guys, im trying to get into C# programming, i purchased a few books, what software do i need to start programminga and compiling windows apps based on .net in ubuntu?
[12:37] <SeveredCross> Foon: gksudo gedit
[12:37] <Bright-Light> Severed, do I need to download anything?
[12:37] <Recyclable> flannel: hoary
[12:37] <Flannel> Foon: chmod is NOT the answer.  Use sudo with your editor.  like, sudo nano
[12:37] <SeveredCross> ghetek: If you want to use .NET, you need to install Mono
[12:37] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross   its gibrish to me :D
[12:37] <Thewarder> bright light I am trying to do the same but I don't have the installation disk
[12:37] <Foon> SeveredCross: I'm using LAMP, no window manager yet
[12:37] <freshmeat> !upgrade
[12:37] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:37] <GionnyBoss> RoundyT1: but you have the same problem without Beryl?
[12:37] <Oswy> SeveredCross, I got a similar problem with using sudo
[12:37] <Foon> Flannel: ah, I see, thanks :)
[12:37] <Bright-Light> Severed, do I need to download anything for GParted/
[12:37] <Flannel> Recyclable: well then.  Uh, You need to upgrade.  Hoary is no longer supported.  You'll need to upgrade to Dapper (since Breezy, which is the one after Hoary is going out of support in a few weeks)
[12:38] <GionnyBoss> RoundyT1: are you with XGL?
[12:38] <Oswy> "SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported."
[12:38] <SeveredCross> Bright-Light: No, it comes with Gnome
[12:38] <Foon> so sudo vi sources.list
[12:38] <Foon> heh
[12:38] <Foon> good ol' vi
[12:38] <Oswy> Me?
[12:38] <Recyclable> flannel: arf :(
[12:38] <Flannel> Recyclable: it might be easier if you backup and reinstall (definately be easier on our bandwidth)
[12:38] <GionnyBoss> RoundyT1: maybe because you are running XGL ... try to run Beryl with AIXGL ... it's a lot better
[12:38] <SeveredCross> Ew Vi. :)
[12:38] <Foon> lol
[12:38] <Foon> I've been using it a lot lately
[12:38] <SeveredCross> I always like nano.
[12:38] <Bright-Light> How can I give people shell access?
[12:38] <SeveredCross> I know vi is super-powerful, but I just don't enjoy it.
[12:38] <Flannel> Bright-Light: remotely, you mean?
[12:38] <ferronica> any one here using gnokii???
[12:38] <Foon> SSH at work, nethack, and this new machine I built
[12:39] <Oswy> So what do I do with vi?
[12:39] <SeveredCross> Oswy: You don't need to do anything with vi. :)
[12:39] <Bright-Light> Yeah
[12:39] <Flannel> Oswy: no, that wasn't for you.
[12:39] <Oswy> Ahh.
[12:39] <Oswy> Haha.
[12:39] <SeveredCross> _Mr_Denix_: I really have no idea what your issue is.
[12:39] <Bright-Light> Like for them to run a bot on or something
[12:39] <Flannel> Bright-Light: you'll want to install openssh-server
[12:39] <Foon> Oswy: unrelated to you, sorry :)
[12:39] <Oswy> I think I messed something out, and I'll need to restarte.
[12:39] <Oswy> -e
[12:39] <Oswy> Dammit.
[12:39] <Flannel> Bright-Light: that'll allow them to login to your machine remotely
[12:39] <Foon> brb
[12:39] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross i'll try to restart :) thank you for trying :) appreciate it
[12:39] <Oswy> messed something up, even.
[12:39] <RoundyT1> dang- sorry. GionnyBoss  no, GNOME works fine (Yes i use XGL)
[12:39] <Oswy> So do you have a fix for my problem?
[12:39] <Oswy> Operation not supported.
[12:39] <pike_> Bright-Light: then of course forward port 22 from your router
[12:40] <jenda> Flannel: would you believe it... it was caused by gksudo
[12:40] <jenda> Flannel: with sudo, it works
[12:40] <jenda> Flannel: (and i found out by trial and error) :)
[12:40] <Flannel> jenda: thats... hmm.  Oh, try using gksu instead.  And putting "update-manager -d" in quotes.
[12:40] <Bright-Light> Flannel, I installed that. Now?
[12:40] <GionnyBoss> RoundyT1: it's normal then ... if you use XGL , you have to set it for antialiasing fonts and all this stuff
[12:40] <jenda> Flannel: well, I already ran it with sudo
[12:41] <_Mr_Denix_> RoundyT1 another way to screenshot is  applications - accesories - take a screenshoot
[12:41] <Oswy> Anybody know how to fix the Operation not supporteD?
[12:41] <Haisen> hi there!
[12:41] <jenda> Flannel: or do you suppose gksudo only takes the first argument as the command?
[12:41] <Haisen> how to get the information of current refresh rate in a Nvidia card?
[12:41] <jenda> that's possible...
[12:41] <GionnyBoss> RoundyT1: you can search on google about that. But really... try to use AIXGL, which is an X.ORG extension... and Beryl on AIXGL works better
[12:41] <Flaming> hi
[12:41] <Dame> i want to compile my own kernel. do i need to include usplash in it?
[12:41] <Crazytom> has anyone gotten a xfi soundblaster working with ubuntu?
[12:42] <RoundyT1> no, it was not like that. I deleted something in my sessions>startup programs on accident and now its all messed up.
[12:42] <Flaming> when will the next version of Ubuntu come out?  Should I install Ubuntu 6.10  (Edgy Eft) or should I wait for the next version?
[12:42] <RoundyT1> no, it was not like that. I deleted something in my sessions>startup programs on accident and now its all messed up.  GionnyBoss
[12:42] <SeveredCross> Flaming: Feisty Fawn should be out in May I think.
[12:42] <Oswy> helloooooooooooooooooooo
[12:42] <Oswy> Anyone?
[12:42] <Bright-Light> Flannel
[12:42] <cafuego_> SeveredCross: April 19.
[12:42] <ikonia> Oswy: what
[12:42] <Haisen> someone?
[12:42] <ikonia> Haisen: what
[12:42] <Haisen> how to get the information of current refresh rate in a Nvidia card?
[12:42] <Bright-Light> Once I download openssh-server what do I do?
[12:42] <Oswy> "SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported" when I did sudo iwconfig to connect to the nework.
[12:42] <Oswy> *network
[12:43] <SeveredCross> Aha. Close.
[12:43] <Oswy> Anyone know how to rectify?
[12:43] <Bright-Light> Once I download openssh-server what do I do? Anyone????
[12:43] <Haisen> there is command but i dont remenber
[12:43] <ikonia> Haisen: look in gnome display settings
[12:43] <ikonia> Bright-Light: start it
[12:43] <jrib> !ssh > Bright-Light    (Bright-Light, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:43] <Haisen> it doesnt give the correct rate
[12:43] <RoundyT1> Bright-Light, you need to get it running
[12:43] <Oswy> Guess nobody knows, then.
[12:43] <RoundyT1> Bright-Light,and get it configured
[12:43] <blackest> system->screen resolution
[12:43] <Flannel> jenda:  right.  Well, that's just an issue with the wiki, forinstance, with the edgy upgrade: gksu "update-manager -c" is the command.
[12:43] <Flannel> jenda: it has to do with gksudo parsing the -d instead of passing it.  Thats why you need to quote.
[12:43] <Flannel> Bright-Light: now... nothing.  Any user on your machine can login remotely now.
[12:44] <ikonia> Haisen: it gives you the current runing rate
[12:44] <ikonia> Oswy: doesn't look like it
[12:44] <Bright-Light> Flannel
[12:44] <Oswy> Damn.
[12:44] <emet> How do I install Ubuntu on Xbox 360 ?
[12:44] <Bright-Light> I want to let other people connect to it...From someplace else in US
[12:44] <ikonia> emet: you don't
[12:44] <jenda> Flannel: ook
[12:44] <ikonia> Bright-Light: just start it
[12:44] <emet> ikonia: ?
[12:44] <emet> somone has!
[12:45] <ikonia> emet: you don't install ubuntu on the xbox
[12:45] <Flaming> Thank you SeanTater
[12:45] <ikonia> emet: I didn't say you couldn't
[12:45] <arashf> quit
[12:45] <Flaming> SeveredCross, Thank you
[12:45] <Oswy> Hmmmm.
[12:45] <Flannel> Bright-Light: right, you're already doing that.  Assuming they have an account on your machine, they can connect.  You might need to port forward port 22 on your router.
[12:45] <Oswy> Would anyone at least know where to look?
[12:45] <Bright-Light> Flannel
[12:45] <Thewarder> hggh
[12:45] <Oswy> The wiki doesn't really have anything that I could find about it.

[12:46] <ikonia> Bright-Light: add a user
[12:46] <Flannel> Bright-Light: just like normal.  Do you have a GUI on this box?
[12:46] <Bright-Light> Idk....How me check
[12:46] <jrib> !cli > kkd    (kkd, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:46] <freshmeat> SeveredCross: It works when I hit escape, it's all good
[12:46] <blackest> emet you can install xebian on the original xbox with some hacks (it is debian based) I would look for an xbox360 wiki to see whats possible on the xbox360
[12:46] <Coli2> I've just updated to feisty beta, and wireless has stopped working (ipw 3945)
[12:46] <freshmeat> !ndiswrapper
[12:46] <Flannel> Bright-Light: Are you running a nice pretty OS with a mouse and stuff? or just command line?
[12:46] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:46] <Flannel> Coli2: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support
[12:46] <kkd> ok

[12:46] <Bright-Light> Flannel, lmao, I got desktop, mouse, etc.
[12:47] <Flannel> Bright-Light: alrigt, you've got a GUI then.  Go to.. uh, System > Administration > Users and Groups, or something like that.  to add new users
[12:48] <Bright-Light> Flannel, how do I let them log in now?
[12:49] <Flannel> Bright-Light: Do you have a router?
[12:49] <ikonia> Bright-Light: create them an account and start the ssh server
[12:49] <Bright-Light> Ya
[12:49] <Bright-Light> im on wirelss
[12:49] <Flannel> Bright-Light: you'll need to port forward port 22 on your router to your machine.
[12:49] <Bright-Light> Then?
[12:50] <ikonia> Bright-Light: how many times, add a user start the ssh server
[12:50] <Flannel> Bright-Light: then, they connect to your IP with a ssh client, and login.
[12:50] <Flannel> ikonia: SSH server is already started.  it starts upon installation.
[12:50] <Bright-Light> Ugh...
[12:50] <ikonia> Flannel: yu
[12:50] <ikonia> yup

[12:51] <xzk> I am trying to upgrade to Feisty Fawn, but it gives me some error at the end of each distro Update that I try.. could I be out of space on my HDD ? If so, what applications in Ubuntu are safe to completely remove withotu messing anything up
[12:52] <ikonia> xzk: if you don't know that you shouldn't be using fesity the beta software
[12:52] <Flannel> xzk: You could be running out of space.  Is that what the error message says?
[12:52] <ghetek> I want to install ubuntu multiple across many machines, if i install it and customize it to be perfect, can i just copy the hard drive across to teh other computers? will ubuntu auto-recognize all th enew hardware?
[12:52] <ikonia> xzk: how big is your had disk
[12:52] <ikonia> ghetek: no
[12:52] <xzk> It's duel boot, winXP and ubuntu linux
[12:52] <Nergar> nevermind, i'm going to reinstall ubuntu
[12:52] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross sorry for bugging you; can you please tell me where from should i start if  i want to remote wake my edgy pc ?
[12:52] <Flannel> ghetek: you're better off customizing an installer CD
[12:53] <MajorPayne> df should tell you if you are out of HD space.
[12:53] <ghetek> Flannel: i was trying UCK but i cant figure out how to make desktop icions
[12:53] <_Mr_Denix_> SeveredCross internet connection via LAN card
[12:53] <hot`loaded> hello guys
[12:53] <hot`loaded> :)
[12:53] <xzk> ikonia - thanks but I'll make that decision, not yours to make
[12:53] <hot`loaded> how r u
[12:53] <ikonia> xzk: then don't ask question like that
[12:53] <hot`loaded> i have a question
[12:54] <xzk> ikonia: why are you being an ass?
[12:54] <Flannel> ghetek: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization  for alt CD, and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization for Desktop CD.  You probably want to use the Alt CD.
[12:54] <Haisen> how to get the information of current refresh rate in a Nvidia card?
[12:54] <ikonia> xzk: I'm giving you experienced advice. If you can't figure out how to manage the software installed on your stable system, then you should not be using beta/unstable software
[12:54] <Flannel> xzk: Is the error message you're getting telling you that you're out of space? or what?
[12:54] <xzk> If I dont use things like Evolution, GIMP, etc etc.. are they safe to remove or will it cause problems
[12:54] <xzk> Flannel: No :(
[12:54] <_Mr_Denix_> !seen SeveredCross
[12:54] <sabiancra> _Mr_Denix_, are you stupid... SeveredCross is on #ubuntu right now....
[12:55] <addams> how do i access mysql ?
[12:55] <Flannel> xzk: you'll need to have them installed to upgrade.  By proxy.
[12:55] <Flannel> xzk: if that's not your error, then that's probably not the issue.  What error are you getting?
[12:55] <takesinn> Ey
[12:55] <takesinn> Trying to get MTP working
[12:55] <lior> ok, I am trying again: I can't get wifi working on LG K1 express dual laptop. can any1 help ?
[12:55] <ghetek> Flannel: wow, that looks complicated... Ubuntu wont just boot into new hardware?
[12:55] <xzk> Flannel: I can't remember what it was exactly, hang on just a sec. I'm trying to upgrade again - when it comes up this time I'll copy and paste it to you
[12:55] <takesinn> I got this Zen V Plus dealy which I can't seem to get to work properly
[12:55] <ikonia> !seen seveas
[12:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen seveas - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:55] <sabiancra> ikonia, are you stupid... seveas is on #ubuntu right now....
[12:55] <Foon> I installed fluxbox and it installed fine (haven't tested it yet though), I'm looking through universe stuff, and there's a package called "defrag"
[12:55] <hot`loaded> i tried using ubuntu 6.10 live cd. And i seems to like it. its just that i still want to use xp. so how do i install ubuntu without messing up m y xp. my hd is not partitioned into 2.
[12:55] <RoundyT1> OK for those that were helping me, i decided to dump Beryl, i'll try it when Feisty comes out, its just being a pain in the neck to keep up and it slows down boot and stuff anyways.
[12:55] <Foon> I always thought that linux doesn't need to be defragged?
[12:56] <broedje> /dev/hda7 /mnt/hda7 vfat auto,user,rw,suid,exec,umask=1000,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0
[12:56] <ikonia> PriceChild: thanks
[12:56] <broedje> why cant i yutomount
[12:56] <broedje> automount
[12:56] <takesinn> I compiled gnomad2 and libmtp by y self, while using synaptic to get libnjb
[12:56] <gordonjcp> Foon: it doesn't
[12:56] <takesinn> As the walkthrough proposes
[12:56] <Flannel> ghetek: Eh?  This is for rolling you own CD.  But yeah, you'll want to be able to use the HW detection in the installer.
[12:56] <xzk> How much is a larger laptop HDD
[12:56] <Foon> gordonjcp: I didn't think so, so why the defrag package?
[12:56] <takesinn> Now the strangest thing is happening. Gnomad2 is running, it can read from my mp3 player, but it absoloutly refuses to transfer files
[12:56] <takesinn> I've been able to make a playlist, but thats it
[12:56] <xzk> the one that came with my laptop is only 40GB :(
[12:56] <broedje> takesinn gnomad2? you have the jukebox?
[12:57] <gordonjcp> Foon: because you can use it to defragment the tiny bit of fragmentation that you always get with ext2
[12:57] <hot`loaded> i tried using ubuntu 6.10 live cd. And i seems to like it. its just that i still want to use xp. so how do i install ubuntu without messing up m y xp. my hd is not partitioned into 2.
[12:57] <Flannel> xzk: I imagine you can get a bigger one for pretty cheap.  But, that's a smidge offtopic.
[12:57] <Foon> ah, so it can happen then
[12:57] <Foon> but not with ext3?
[12:57] <ghetek> Flannel: im just going to make the install and then use clonezilla or partimage to make an image of the hard drive that will be saved on to the clonezilla/partimage cd/dvd
[12:57] <xzk> Flannel: I understand :)
[12:57] <RoundyT1> so, i would like to customize my desktop though....what are GTK 2.x ---themes???
[12:57] <Flannel> hot`loaded: during the Edgy install, you can partition.
[12:57] <ikonia> hot`loaded: re-partition
[12:57] <Foon> (it says it's for ext2, minix and xiafs)
[12:57] <gordonjcp> Foon: not really, no
[12:57] <ikonia> RoundyT1: gnome-look.org
[12:57] <takesinn> broedje: I've got Creative Zen V Plus
[12:57] <broedje> uh
[12:57] <takesinn> I'm trying to compile an SVN version of banshee now
[12:57] <Foon> heh
[12:58] <Foon> oh, okay
[12:58] <gordonjcp> Foon: xiafs is long gone ;-)
[12:58] <Foon> *shrug*
[12:58] <Foon> lol
[12:58] <_Mr_Denix_> hot'loaded best way use 2 hdds
[12:58] <hot`loaded> Flannel - and it wont mess up with my xp?
[12:58] <ikonia> _Mr_Denix_: no its not - you can use one
[12:58] <Foon> gordonjcp: I wouldn't know, but thanks for the random info anyway :)
[12:58] <takesinn> But it's demanding all sorts of requirements, incl LIBGPHOTO2SHARP
[12:58] <broedje> how can i automount a vfat partition
[12:58] <gordonjcp> Foon: simple filesystems do get a bit fragmented, but ext2 and to a greater extent ext3 try and avoid it
[12:58] <RoundyT1> ikonia, so, if i install those, they should just work right? (im already on that site)
[12:58] <ikonia> takesinn: meet the requirments
[12:58] <ikonia> RoundyT1: yes
[12:58] <takesinn> Which I can't seem to find in Ubuntu Edgy repository
[12:58] <gordonjcp> Foon: in general it's not worth bothering about
[12:58] <DM|> CAn anyone PLEASE help me with a skype sound problem
[12:58] <Foon> yea
[12:58] <_Mr_Denix_> ikonia you can but its more complicated and if you are not sure on what you are doing you risk loosing your data
[12:58] <takesinn> ikonia: I can't find libgphoto2sharp
[12:58] <hot`loaded> _Mr_Denix_ i am using a laptop
[12:59] <ikonia> _Mr_Denix_: its less complicated as grub has less to mess up
[12:59] <ghetek> DM|: dont ask to ask, just ask
[12:59] <Foon> after every single game or program install, DEFRAG.
[12:59] <Foon> lol
[12:59] <RoundyT1> ikonia,  thanks again lol
[12:59] <teZ> I'm using the fglrx driver, and fglrxinfo shows that the Mesa GLX Indirect renderer is being used, which I can't get fixed. I'm using an ATi Radeon Xpress 200, aka X200, among other names.
[12:59] <SwordRaven> hiya, need help with Radeon X1950pro and x not starting with anything other than VESA drivers, fglrx causes x to switch to a blank screen?
[12:59] <Foon> made sure my comp ran at peak performance as much as possible
[12:59] <gordonjcp> Foon: yeah, there was something hypnotic about it
[12:59] <voidmage> what processes does hplip start?
[12:59] <gordonjcp> Foon: thing is, it *doesn't* make sure it runs at peak performance
[01:00] <cafuego_> Hmm, spending 2 hours on defrag twice a week to gaim 2 minutes of performance time...
[01:00] <Foon> I could play the music, but it locked up the entire system for the duration of the song, lol
[01:00] <gordonjcp> Foon: if you are capturing video onto something FAT32-formatted, it will scatter sectors all over the disk
[01:00] <broedje> foon damn small?
[01:00] <broedje> ah
[01:00] <xxMarka> hi peeps...I've got an ATI Radeon X800, are there any drivers I need to install to make the GUI and stuff smoother?
[01:00] <DM|> ghetek :( but i need to get it working for my teams podcast
[01:00] <Foon> gordonjcp: I know what you mean (hypnotic) lol
[01:00] <Shaba1> damn this livecd install it takeing a heck of a lot of time
[01:01] <Foon> broedje: eh?
[01:01] <_Mr_Denix_> ikonia  any ideas on how i should remote wake my edgy pc with lan card internet connection ?
[01:01] <broedje> dsl
[01:01] <newbie0057> hello, I'm trying to install ubuntu but my screen resolution is 640x480, I cannot change it in "Screen Resolution"
[01:01] <SwordRaven> how is Ubuntu so bad at setting up graphics drivers at install time?
[01:01] <SwordRaven> :/
[01:01] <Flannel> hot`loaded: You'd be best defragging your XP first.  But yeah, it'll resize XP.  Assuming youve got the freespace.  (If you have a windows repartitioner, you could use that to shrink your XP as well).  there's a certain amount of freespace you're not supposed to go under as well while repartitioning.  But, Im not sure how much that is.
[01:01] <gordonjcp> DM|: don't ask to ask, don't tell us what you need it for, just tell us the problem
[01:01] <ikonia> _Mr_Denix_: set wake on lan in your bios
[01:01] <Foon> hot`loaded: not to try to scare you, but do be careful when partitioning
[01:02] <_Mr_Denix_> ikonia did that
[01:02] <gordonjcp> hot`loaded: I resized a WinXP partition to do dual-boot at work - I found PerfectDisk was great for shifting all the stuff that the windows defrag leaves alone
[01:02] <_Mr_Denix_> ikonia still i want remote wake from outside my lan
[01:02] <newbie0057> (cannot install screen resolution) I'm using an old crappy monitor that is just for this installation, but it should support a better resolution
[01:02] <Onimae> I just upgraded to the Feisty Beta and I have a problem. Whenever I boot up, the desktop loads and the splash screen stays there a while, while the system hangs on loading something. The splash screen is stuck on the Nautilus icon. After about 5 minutes the computer loads everything in my session list. This means I have to wait forever for metacity and the like to start. Why is this happening?
[01:02] <Foon> I once tried to consolidate partitions I had made (1 NTFS +2 linux) into 1 NTFS, and it scrapped my NTFS partition
[01:02] <takesinn> Is anyone using mtpfs?
[01:02] <Flannel> hot`loaded: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[01:02] <_Mr_Denix_> ikonia i also have installed ssh server
[01:02] <takesinn> I'd like to know how that could be implamented into nautilus. I think that would be better than Banshee or Gnomad2
[01:02] <xxMarka> I've got an ATI Radeon X800, are there any drivers I need to install to make the GUI and stuff smoother, or should they already be installed?
[01:02] <gordonjcp> Foon: re fragmentation - if you are pulling data off a disk into a CPU-bound process, sometimes fragmentation is what you want
[01:03] <Shaba1> gordonjcpwhat is the rul perfectdisk and is it commercial?
[01:03] <hot`loaded> Flannel thanks
[01:03] <ikonia> _Mr_Denix_: so just ping the server
[01:03] <DM|> gordonjcp when i do a test call it makes a bubbly sound and says "ther is a sound problem" and also, when I make a call, it makes the gurgly stuttering sound and when the person picks up it says call dropped on their end
[01:03] <hot`loaded> another think
[01:03] <Foon> I had to use a boot CD to recover the NTFS partition, still lost an entire drive's worth of data (including 3 years of e-mails and contacts :'( ) though
[01:03] <hot`loaded> i cant watch video on youtube
[01:03] <teZ> grr fking linux drivers >.<
[01:03] <hot`loaded> :(
[01:03] <ikonia> _Mr_Denix_: that will use the lan and voila "wake on lan" is actived
[01:03] <Foon> gordonjcp: 0.o why?
[01:03] <gordonjcp> DM|: does sound generally work ok for you?
[01:03] <hot`loaded> i dont know how to install plugins
[01:03] <hot`loaded> :(
[01:03] <ikonia> teZ: no need for the language
[01:03] <DM|> gordonjcp works great, can even record great sound and i play music all the time
[01:03] <sillynub> how can i change the spacing of a font?
[01:03] <d00by> for some reason no sounds on my computer will play and when i go to preferences>sounds to run and click test it says "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available." any idea whats wrong?
[01:03] <teZ> sorry ikonia, i'm just annoyed that i can't get direct rendering
[01:03] <_Mr_Denix_> ikonia will try that in a few secs still how could i wake it from outside of my lan ?
[01:04] <Shaba1> I just did that yesterday Foon
[01:04] <ikonia> _Mr_Denix_: ping it
[01:04] <ikonia> _Mr_Denix_: any network traffic should wake it
[01:04] <Foon> Shaba1: really? ouch, my condolences :(
[01:04] <_Mr_Denix_> ikonia ok trying now be right back
[01:04] <Shaba1> but luckyly I had most important things copied to this desktop
[01:04] <teZ> well, i'm going to restart now
[01:04] <Foon> oh, lucky
[01:04] <d00by> for some reason no sounds on my computer will play and when i go to preferences>sounds to run and click test it says "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available." any idea whats wrong?
[01:04] <Shaba1> just lost on picture that I needed is all
[01:04] <gordonjcp> Foon: consider a disk spinning really slowly at 1 rev per second - if the sectors are all right beside each other 1,2,3,4 and it takes 1/4 of a second to read a sector and 1/4 a second to process the data, then that will be really slow
[01:04] <newbie0057> wwell, thanks anyway I'lll just do text mode
[01:05] <Foon> I suffer from professional technophile overconfidence, I never backup ANYTHING.
[01:05] <Foon> nasty habit, that
[01:05] <gordonjcp> Foon: 'cos you'll read 1, have to miss out 2 'cos you're busy, wait for 2 to come round again, and so on
[01:05] <kernel06> are there any good wiki that i can built for internal office use in ubuntu
[01:05] <Onimae>  I just upgraded to the Feisty Beta and I have a problem. Whenever I boot up, the desktop loads and the splash screen stays there a while, while the system hangs on loading something. The splash screen is stuck on the Nautilus icon. After about 5 minutes the computer loads everything in my session list. This means I have to wait forever for metacity and the like to start. Why is this happening?
[01:05] <gordonjcp> Foon: so you interleave the sectors - but if the interleave doesn't match the rate at which you're ready to fire sectors in or out, you get fragmentation
[01:05] <Foon> gordonjcp: er, ah, I think that's beyond my knowledge or abilities atm :)
[01:05] <robdeman> hey folks: if I download mencoder's last SVN trunk and compile a binary on my fedora core 6 box... (which has all the dev tools) ... can I use that binary on my Ubuntu Web server? (which has an absolute minimal install -- dont want to install gcc and stuff on it if I dont have too..)
[01:06] <Foon> gordonjcp: nifty
[01:06] <Shaba1> Thank god for ultravnc foon
[01:06] <Foon> Shaba1: lol
[01:06] <hase> What does (compiz-tray-icon:4770): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid (NULL) pointer instance mean?
[01:06] <Foon> :)
[01:06] <takesinn> hmm
[01:06] <gordonjcp> Foon: think about it - if you write it 1,3,2,4 then you read 1, miss 3, read 2, miss 4, miss 1 'cos we've done it already, read 3, miss 2, read 4
[01:07] <takesinn> The banshee deb doesn't have support for portable players I'm afraid
[01:07] <gordonjcp> Foon: you read the whole thing in two revolutions
[01:07] <cheeseboy> how do imount my  pendrive manually?
[01:07] <Foon> gordonjcp: ah, I see, quite cool :)
[01:07] <kernel06> any free wiki software i can use in ubuntu
[01:07] <hot`loaded> i dont know how to install plugins :(
[01:07] <jrib> kernel06: moinmoin and mediawiki spring to mind, but there are others I'm sure
[01:08] <gordonjcp> DM|: what have you got the sound drivers for Skype set to?
[01:08] <Foon> so, er, (still in aptitude) how do I run fluxbox now?
[01:08] <SeveredCross> Foon: I tihnk you need to logout.
[01:08] <phr0z3n> BRB
[01:08] <ektobot> how can i make the internet run faster, its very slow in comparrison to my windows os
[01:08] <SeveredCross> And log back in, choosing Fluxbox as your session type instead of Gnome
[01:08] <Onimae>  I just upgraded to the Feisty Beta and I have a problem. Whenever I boot up, the desktop loads and the splash screen stays there a while, while the system hangs on loading something. The splash screen is stuck on the Nautilus icon. After about 5 minutes the computer loads everything in my session list. This means I have to wait forever for metacity and the like to start. Why is this happening?
[01:09] <gordonjcp> DM|: oddly enough, my Skype is now trying to use my USB midi adaptor as a sound device, which understandably doesn't really come across so well
[01:09] <Foon> SeveredCross: I'm using LAMP server, again.
[01:09] <Foon> :)
[01:09] <SeveredCross> Onimae: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support.
[01:09] <SeveredCross> Oi, I forget.
[01:09] <Foon> heheh, np
[01:09] <SeveredCross> First you need a login manager..
[01:09] <Onimae> Thank you, SeverdCross
[01:09] <DM|> gordonjcp where do i find that option
[01:09] <Foon> bash prompt isn't enough?
[01:09] <SeveredCross> Gdm or kdm are common ones..There are others, I just don't know them.
[01:09] <gordonjcp> DM|: Tools->Options->Sound Devices
[01:09] <SeveredCross> Don't think so.
[01:09] <xyrer> hello, I need help mountig a fat32 partition and give users read/write access
[01:09] <tecta> anyone successfully using compiz with nvidia?
[01:09] <SeveredCross> Never really experimented with that.
[01:09] <DM|> gordonjcp HDA intel
[01:10] <Foon> ah
[01:10] <SeveredCross> Foon: You can try typing startx from your root prompt.
[01:10] <SeveredCross> See what happens.
[01:10] <Foon> just a LAMP server with a WM for a few things
[01:10] <d00by> for some reason no sounds on my computer will play and when i go to preferences>sounds to run and click test it says "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available." any idea whats wrong?
[01:10] <Foon> ooh, startx, that rings a bell
[01:10] <Foon> I'll try that indeed, brb, keyboard swap
[01:10] <SeveredCross> Does exactly what it says, starts X. :)
[01:11] <jhornick> Foon: once X starts I know Fluxbox and a couple other WM's will have a menu so that you can change WM without restarting X
[01:11] <robdeman> hrmm how would I install this on my Ubuntu box (updated mencoder binary) https://launchpad.net/+builds/+build/311600/mencoder
[01:11] <takesinn> Great
[01:11] <takesinn> Now gnomad2 is working fine
[01:11] <SeveredCross> Yeah, but that menu is usually provided by the login manager I thought (gdm/kdm/xdm whatever)
[01:11] <xyrer> hello, I need help mounting a fat32 partition and give users read/write access, haven't found anything on the web, except fstab editing wich I don't need
[01:11] <takesinn> Tho still ugly
[01:11] <z3n> I want sun-java's jvm to be the default, but everything is opening in java-gcj...how can I change the default?
[01:11] <takesinn> Any alternatives?
[01:11] <takesinn> Like nautilus?
[01:11] <DM|> gordonjcp i think the problem is that its running the KDE GUI for skype, and im only running gnome, is there a GTK version of skype
[01:11] <takesinn> I haven't gotten mtpfs to work properly, if anyone has a suggestion lemme know
[01:11] <jrib> !multijava | z3n
[01:11] <ubotu> z3n: To set which java version/implementation is to be used as default, use sudo update-java-alternatives
[01:11] <SeveredCross> xyrer, I think you have to edit /etc/fstab to do that, or learn the mount syntax.
[01:11] <emf> Does anybody know if there's a fix for the thunderbird bug, where the cursor goes to the beginning or end of a line, when you use the [Up]  or [Down]  arrow keys, and the cursor starts somewhere in the middle of a line of text?
[01:11] <Foon> /em plugs his keyboard back in
[01:12] <jhornick> Severed: yeah, but he sounds like he is going from terminal and not using a desktop manager to login
[01:12] <Foon> startx command not found
[01:12] <SeveredCross> Then you don't have X
[01:12] <SeveredCross> Err, at least it seems like you don't.
[01:12] <d00by> for some reason no sounds on my computer will play and when i go to preferences>sounds to run and click test it says "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available." any idea whats wrong? Also when i try to play music in BeatBox or other music players, the music refuses to actually start, the timer stays at 0:00
[01:12] <SeveredCross> You need X to run Fluxbox.
[01:12] <lior> hi sorry for bringing this again, but I am really desperate to get wifi working on LG K1 laptop - does any one know how to help ?
[01:12] <dtygel> hi folks: how can I know if my card supports BERYL?
[01:12] <Foon> installing fluxbox didn't install X as a dependency?
[01:12] <SeveredCross> Yeah, that's very strange.
[01:12] <xyrer> SeveredCross, I don't want to edit fstab, will take out the Hd in a few minutes, just want to copy some data on it
[01:13] <lior> dtygel, you can check beryl wiki
[01:13] <SeveredCross> If you know it'
[01:13] <z3n> jrib, do I need to reboot or anything?  Eclipse, at least, is still using gcj...
[01:13] <lior> dtygel, which card do you have ?
[01:13] <SeveredCross> *If you know its /dev/blah
[01:13] <twysted> lior> what kinda wifi card does it have?
[01:13] <RoundyT1> anyone wanna help me install GTK stuff?
[01:13] <SeveredCross> xyrer: If you know it'
[01:13] <SeveredCross> BaH!
[01:13] <SeveredCross> xyrer: man mount :)
[01:13] <dtygel> lior, that's the problem: it's "unknown device" using lspci
[01:13] <Foon> SeveredCross: I'll check aptitude again
[01:13] <SeveredCross> Read the documentation for Mount
[01:13] <lior> twysted, I don't know that's the prob...
[01:13] <xyrer> SeveredCross, That's the point, have tried a lot of things, none worked
[01:13] <Shaba1> ok guys this Edgy install seems stuck at the where are you screen
[01:13] <SeveredCross> Errors?
[01:14] <Shaba1> how do I get it to move on
[01:14] <lior> dtygel, is this a laptop ?
[01:14] <twysted> lior what model pc is it again?
[01:14] <Jordan_U> xyrer: sudo mkdir /mountpoint && sudo mount /dev/whateveryourdriveis /mountpoint
[01:14] <dtygel> lior: no, desktop. How can I discover what video card is there?
[01:14] <xyrer> Jordan_U, that doesn't give users read/write access
[01:14] <RoundyT1> What window manager does Ubuntu use by default?
[01:14] <SeveredCross> You need to add the rw option
[01:14] <lior> LG K2 PRO Express dual - that's all the info I have on it ?
[01:14] <SeveredCross> RoundyT1: Gnome.
[01:15] <dtygel> roundyT1: GNOME
[01:15] <Jordan_U> xyrer: I thought you just needed to copy some files quickly?
[01:15] <SeveredCross> Yeah, you don't need write access...
[01:15] <RoundyT1> SeveredCross, dude, im freakin getting myself SO confused. how do i run metacity?
[01:15] <Flannel> RoundyT1: metacity
[01:15] <DM|> gordonjcp any ideas
[01:15] <twysted> lior, k 1 sec
[01:15] <SeveredCross> RoundyT1: Have you installed it hyet?
[01:15] <ikonia> RoundyT1: metacity
[01:15] <lior> dtygel, I think just try and install - what can go wrong ?
[01:15] <Flannel> RoundyT1: metacity is Ubuntu (and gnome's default) window manager.
[01:15] <xyrer> then how do i copy the data without write access?
[01:15] <Jordan_U> RoundyT1: But there is also Kubuntu and Xubuntu for XFCE and KDE
[01:15] <SeveredCross> Copying data just requires ro
[01:16] <RoundyT1> wow. Well i have some theme's i want to run...they are xml....files?
[01:16] <dtygel> lior: I installed it, and it didn't work
[01:16] <Romexios> !fat32
[01:16] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[01:16] <SeveredCross> !fuse
[01:16] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[01:16] <SeveredCross> Ah.
[01:16] <d00by> for some reason no sounds on my computer will play and when i go to preferences>sounds to run and click test it says "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available." any idea whats wrong? Also when i try to play music in BeatBox or other music players, the music refuses to actually start, the timer stays at 0:00
[01:16] <Romexios> Is it okey to erase/add things on fat32 fom linux?
[01:16] <freshmeat> do any of you have a dell ?  my wireless isn't working and I have an intel 3945... any suggestions?  some of the ones I'm finding on the net arent working... the card worked fine under opensuse
[01:16] <lior> dtygel, I guess it'll be some kind of an onboard chipset ? is this a PCI mother board ?
[01:16] <jrib> Romexios: yes
[01:16] <dtygel> lior: I think ubuntu didn't detect the video card, since it's so slow, and in xorg.conf, it's simply "generic card"
[01:16] <SeveredCross> freshmeat: Mine registered fine in Edgy Eft
[01:16] <SeveredCross> I had Wireless OOTB.
[01:16] <Romexios> jrib: thanks
[01:16] <freshmeat> so maybe do a distro upgrade severed and hope for the best?
[01:17] <freshmeat> Im in dapper
[01:17] <SeveredCross> Oh...
[01:17] <Jordan_U> xyrer: sudo ( may or may not be required ) cp /whatever/you/want/to/copy /wherever/you/want/to/copy/to
[01:17] <SeveredCross> Yeah.
[01:17] <mozul> i installed ubuntu Edgy and then updated the 143 things that needed updating.  The updater gave this error at the end.  E: Linux-image-2.6.17-11-generic: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2.  and  E: Linux-image-generic: dependency problems -leaving unconfigured.  Is that a bad thing? What should I do?
[01:17] <SeveredCross> I never was able to use it in Dapper
[01:17] <freshmeat> okay
[01:17] <dtygel> lior: yes, it's onboard card. When I type "lspci | grep VGA", I get "VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. Unknown device 3230 (rev 01)"
[01:17] <freshmeat> so I'll do that next
[01:17] <tbuss> need help with proftpd what do i need to do to allow my family members that use windoze to be able to connect with FTP
[01:17] <freshmeat> the wifi lite beeps erratically
[01:17] <twysted> dtygel x will say generic if it cannot identify it, it did find it just not any known info ;)
[01:18] <freshmeat> !upgrade
[01:18] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:18] <lior> dtygel, than you have the answer. It doesn't support. My solution would be to open the box and find who's mother board is it?
[01:18] <xyrer> Jordan_U, I just wanted to take advantage of the nautilus ease of use, but anyways the question persist, it can't be done without editing fstab?
[01:18] <dtygel> twysted: ok, but how do I identify it to have it better optimized?
[01:18] <epi> Guys...
[01:18] <freshmeat> severed, btw... you are incredibly helpful
[01:18] <crparr> Hi! I'd like to install Kubuntu using lvm. What is the correct way to do so?
[01:18] <linux_user400354> Ferret: are you travis?
[01:18] <dtygel> lior: then I should disconnect?
[01:18] <twysted> dtygel find out what kind of video card you have and load the kernel modules for it =)
[01:19] <SeveredCross> crparr: I think guided partitioning on the Desktop CD should be helpful.
[01:19] <epi> this is killing me, I have a hotkey for some reason that means shift-backspace resets the gui and reloads the os without doing a full reboot.
[01:19] <Shaba1> somone I need help
[01:19] <SeveredCross> If not, the Alternate CD should have it.
[01:19] <SeveredCross> epi: That's a standard X hotkey I thought..
[01:19] <Shaba1> I am trying to install edgy from a live cd
[01:19] <dtygel> twysted: no way to do it without turning off?
[01:19] <epi> How in undergod can I fix that?
[01:19] <tbuss> what would be a good ftp client for a windows user so they can access my ftp server?
[01:19] <Shaba1> well I clicke the install icon
[01:19] <hesemes> epi, the command just restarts the X server
[01:19] <jrib> epi: google for "shift backspace disable", it's an xgl feature
[01:19] <hesemes> oh too late :d
[01:19] <twysted> dtygel more then likely no, pm me the system manufacutre?
[01:19] <Shaba1> and got past the pick a language screen

[01:19] <epi> aight ty
[01:19] <theo_> Can someone please help me with Cedega issues?
[01:19] <LjL> !shift-backspace-#ubuntu-effects | epi
[01:19] <ubotu> epi: If you have problems with shift-backspace or ctrl-backspace killing your X session update your Xgl and Compiz to a newer version (e.g. compiz.net), or do: xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = BackSpace BackSpace Terminate_Server"
[01:19] <twysted> lior i cannot find any info about that laptop you have
[01:20] <Shaba1> now its at the where are you at screen and the mouse it just stock
[01:20] <Jordan_U> freshmeat: Are you going Dapper -> Edgy?
[01:20] <lior> dtygel, no you can carefully open the box without disconnenting.. but If you haven't done it before it's safer to turn off the PC. That way you wont kill yourself from shock

[01:20] <hase> My 3d acceleration isn't working, and I don't know why, when I reboot the computer, I get the nvidia splash screen, so that means the drivers are installed (right?) but when I run the command to enable it (sudo nvidia-glx-config enable ) it says "Error: your X configuration has been altered.
[01:20] <hase> This script cannot proceed automatically. If you believe that this

[01:20] <dtygel> twysted, I'm in a neighbours computer. Is there any command to discover the manufacturer?

[01:20] <RoundyT1> How in the crap do i install this stupid theme?
[01:21] <hase> sorry
[01:21] <Jordan_U> hase: Are you running Edgy?
[01:21] <SeveredCross> RoundyT1: I think you drag its xml file to the Gnome themes menu?
[01:21] <SeveredCross> Something like that.
[01:21] <LjL> hase: it simply means you had modified your X config file manually (or near-manually...), so nvidia-config isn't confident to touch it
[01:21] <freshmeat> do I have to worry about bad md5's when I do an upgrade?
[01:21] <RoundyT1> SeveredCross, k i'll try that
[01:21] <lior> twysted, can you check this paste http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12060/
[01:21] <LjL> hase: do what it says
[01:21] <Jordan_U> RoundyT1: Drag the tar file into the theme chooser
[01:21] <RoundyT1> OH
[01:21] <RoundyT1> crap
[01:21] <lior> twysted, it's my lspci - maybe you can find which the wifi controler
[01:21] <z3n> jrib, for future reference, the culprit was /etc/eclipse/java_home; which did not listen to the java alternatives command...
[01:22] <Crazytom> how do you exit vi

[01:22] <jrib> Crazytom: :q

[01:22] <Mugwump09> Ubuntu will not run on my computer, it freezes up and the screen looks all weird when it tries to run
[01:22] <twysted> lior you sure it has one or that its enabled hardware wise
[01:23] <mozul> Jordan_U: it says No space left on device. would that be my boot partition?
[01:23] <nullcode> hi
[01:23] <nullcode> can someone offer a good rep for mplayer ?
[01:23] <lior> yes ofcourse it has wifi - I've seen work on the lousy vist on it
[01:23] <jrib> nullcode: ubuntu's multiverse has mplayer
[01:23] <MajorPayne> is there any thing I should be worried about before I do a "aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop" and an "aptitude install ubuntu-desktop"?
[01:23] <lior> twysted, yes ofcourse it has wifi - I've seen work on the lousy vist on it
[01:24] <Jordan_U> mozul: That would be your root partition, which by default is also your boot partition

[01:24] <twysted> lior i think i found it 1 sec

[01:24] <Mugwump09> Ubuntu will not run on my computer, it freezes up and the screen looks all weird when it tries to run
[01:24] <freshmeat> do I have to worry about bad md5's when I do an upgrade?
[01:24] <nullcode> thx =))
[01:24] <hesam> hi
[01:24] <jrib> MajorPayne: no, not really.  You know both can coexist peacefully right?
[01:24] <Shaba1> I think this 6.10 cd my be  bad
[01:24] <Jordan_U> Shaba1: Firefox 2.0, upstart and AIGLX by default
[01:24] <freshmeat> Mugwump... did you check the md5 and do the cd check first?
[01:24] <mozul> Jordan_U: my boot partition is seperate from my root partition.  boot is set to 50mb on a raid 1 mirror where root is on a 400gig raid 5.
[01:24] <Mugwump09> yes
[01:25] <Mugwump09> everything is fine
[01:25] <Shaba1> what are upstart and AIGLX?
[01:25] <freshmeat> Mugwump09: did you start by running in safe graphics mode?
[01:25] <Mugwump09> i can install with the alternative version but it won't run
[01:25] <jrib> !upstart > Shaba1    (Shaba1, see the private message from ubotu)
[01:25] <sanityx> Shaba1, upstart is a replacement for init
[01:25] <jrib> !aiglx > Shaba1    (Shaba1, see the private message from ubotu)
[01:25] <Mugwump09> I tried it but it froze up
[01:25] <aoirthoir> upstart ROCKS!
[01:25] <aoirthoir> i think
[01:25] <freshmeat> Mugwump09: whats your vidcard?
[01:25] <Shaba1> got it
[01:25] <Mugwump09> geforce 7800 GT
[01:25] <freshmeat> hmm
[01:26] <sanityx> actually upstart does almost nothing in 6.10. hopefully itll be fully utilized in 7.04
[01:26] <Shaba1> I may have to go with the 6.06 cd that I got for the Linux Magazine
[01:26] <Mugwump09> got the latest drivers and everything
[01:26] <twysted> lior check your priv msg
[01:26] <Shaba1> seems that BOT the livecds i burned have errors
[01:26] <MajorPayne> jrib: I assumed they could, I just didn't see a reason to keep it.  Maybe I will keep KDE for now just in case the other fails.  How do I stop kdm from starting up and make sure that gdm starts?
[01:26] <ferronica> how to use obex-test - u in ubuntu 6.06
[01:26] <Jordan_U> sanityx: Not fully, but many of the init scripts will be replaced
[01:26] <freshmeat> ubuntuforums.com is a good site if nobody helps you here
[01:26] <sanityx> Jordan_U, Cool.
[01:26] <jrib> MajorPayne: when you install gdm it should take care of that or prompt you
[01:26] <freshmeat> they respond quickly... will probably want you to pastebin some things
[01:26] <sanityx> Jordan_U, I love the way upstart works with the stop start commands. They just do nothing in 6.10
[01:27] <MajorPayne> jrib: Ok, that makes sense, thanks.

[01:41] <brophat> are their firewalls with ubuntu?
[01:41] <jrib> tyler_d: what do you mean?
[01:41] <LjL> __mikem: abusing the bot after the bot told him not to, using the channels as a testing place after i told him not to...
[01:41] <Nitro> tyler_d: Usually ./configure, then make and sudo make install
[01:41] <sillynub> jrib, I installed the fonts from synaptic and they still don't show up, but the wiki page says they should :( I even ran fc-cache -fv :/
[01:41] <tbuss> does a windows user need special client software to open a ftp link on my server
[01:41] <jrib> sillynub: did you restart the program?

[01:44] <help_installing> hi I'm trying to install ubuntu, I need help with partitions
[01:44] <morituri> i have a strange problem after upgrading to feisty: my keyboard just stops working during bootup. does this ring any bells?
[01:44] <freshmeat> and it's not my way of doing things
[01:44] <lufis> dwid: Have you opened up the sound mixer to see if it's set correctly?
[01:45] <jrib> morituri: please use #ubuntu+1 for help with feisty
[01:45] <morituri> thanks jrib
[01:45] <Shaba1> well help_installing at least you got to that point
[01:45] <Shaba1> I am stil at the where are you at screen
[01:46] <help_installing> in gparted I have multiple hard drives listed for some reason. I don't understand the dropdown at the top right of this program
[01:46] <lufis> help_installing: And you don't have multiple drives?
[01:46] <help_installing> no 1 drive
[01:46] <ernz> Hi, I can a weird problem, wondering if someone might have a solution? Whenever I try to copy files from my Ubuntu desktop to a secondary ext3 drive, it seems to take much longer than it should, and uses 100% of my CPU. Something else that may also be related is whenever my PC is idle for a little while, I will see the CPU usage jump to 100% and then return to normal when I move the mouse. Any ideas?
[01:46] <lufis> help_installing: Is anything connected, like a usb camera or something?
[01:47] <mihailo> Is there anyone who can help me install nvidia drivers?
[01:47] <help_installing> in the top right corner of gparted I have /dev/sda  and others like /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv02
[01:47] <jrib> !nvidia > mihailo    (mihailo, see the private message from ubotu)
[01:47] <lufis> help_installing: Hmm. Just use /dev/sda, i guess.
[01:47] <help_installing> there are usb drives connected to the computer but no disks inserted into them
[01:47] <tbuss> why cant a windows user connect to my ubuntu ftp server
[01:47] <lufis> help_installing: Maybe that's what it's detecting
[01:48] <ikaruga> hey anyone had success compiling rasterbator?
[01:48] <ernz> jrib: I recall you managed to fix my problems no prob last time. Recognise this problem at all?
[01:48] <lufis> help_installing: Anyway, don't worry about it I'd say. just use sda
[01:48] <help_installing> the drive is 300 gigs, but /dev/sda/ says 279.46 GB,, is this right?
[01:48] <Paddy_EIRE> could anyone tell me where I would go to get help compiling an app called QFlash for ubuntu?
[01:48] <lufis> help_installing: most likely
[01:48] <jrib> ernz: no idea, try checking top to see what is using the cpu
[01:49] <lufis> help_installing: Drives are typically rounded off
[01:49] <DM|> I use gnome normally, can anyone help me get my icons back to a normal size , heres a screenshot of settings / problem http://img249.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotbh0.png
[01:49] <Shaba1> jrib how long should that damn where are you at screen take
[01:49] <mihailo> I've read a lot of guides, but xorg always crashes saying is older than the one requierd for the nvidia 977 drivers
[01:49] <help_installing> lufis: another drive listed is 5 gigs,,, I suspect that the old OS left these. It was fedora before
[01:49] <Shaba1> its bee sitting there for 7 minutes now
[01:49] <ernz> jrib: when copying files it is nautilus that uses most of the CPU, as expected. Could it be a DRM issue?
[01:49] <mihailo> some kernel mismatch
[01:49] <lufis> help_installing: And these are drives, and not partitions?
[01:49] <ernz> DMR*
[01:50] <help_installing> lufis: I do not know, in Gparted they are listed in the top right corner
[01:50] <jrib> ernz: does it happen if you use the terminal?
[01:50] <ernz> jrib, good question, I will check it our
[01:50] <jrib> Shaba1: I don't know what screen taht is
[01:50] <black_13> !tuxracer
[01:50] <lufis> help_installing: Hmm. Are there any partitions listed in the main section?
[01:50] <ubotu> Tuxracer is now renamed Planet Penguin Racer! The package is planetpenguin-racer in !universe. Enjoy.
[01:50] <Shaba1> When you install to the hd from a live ce
[01:50] <khermans> if a pc will be used for doing very basic tasks, but sometimes extracting large archives to the same partition it is being read from, what is the fastest file system to choose?
[01:51] <Shaba1> cd the first screen you git is what is your language
[01:51] <help_installing> lufis: in each there are partitions listed
[01:51] <Shaba1> the second is where are you?
[01:51] <neoncode> What are the downsides of XFS?
[01:51] <jrib> Shaba1: how long has it been stuck?
[01:51] <lufis> help_installing: Can you describe each? How many drives does it list total?
[01:51] <Shaba1> That second one has been on my laptop for 10 minutes now
[01:51] <jrib> Shaba1: I don't recall any screen taking that long
[01:51] <mihailo> I don't know what i should fix! is there a specific graphix kernel that i can update?
[01:52] <Shaba1> Well its there and the mouse is stuck
[01:52] <jrib> mihailo: have you followed the wiki guide to install the nvidia drivers?
[01:52] <jrib> Shaba1: what version of ubuntu?
[01:52] <Shaba1> and the cd is in continuos read mode
[01:52] <Shaba1> 6.10 I think
[01:52] <Shaba1> I burned it in december
[01:52] <mihailo> yes
[01:53] <Shaba1> and got the most recent version
[01:53] <jrib> Shaba1: did you verify the integrity of the cd?
[01:53] <Shaba1> so it has to be nope
[01:53] <jrib> mihailo: what was the result?
[01:53] <Shaba1> but I think that is it the cd must be bad
[01:53] <help_installing> lufis: 4  /dev/sda 279 gigs, /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv02 925 MB,  /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv01 5 GB, /dev/mapper/videovg-videolv01 272 GB
[01:53] <Shaba1> I am going to power down and try the cd I got from Linux Magazine
[01:53] <dwid> i cant get all my speakers to work, i just switched from headphones to a stereo system with 4 speakers and a central speaker, and only two of the speakers work
[01:53] <reitblatt> Paddy_EIRE: could you pastebin the output?
[01:53] <Paddy_EIRE> reitblatt, ok
[01:54] <mihailo> i downloaded glx, i downloaded the drivers, i used xorg reconfigure and chosen nvidia instead of nv
[01:54] <lufis> dwid: Have you taken a look in the sound mixer?
[01:54] <mihailo> and then xorg refuses to start saying that some kernel is older than the driver for nvidia
[01:54] <lufis> help_installing: Weird. And they all have partitions in them?
[01:54] <ernz> jrib: Assuming I am in the directory of this folder, copying to a location that I know exists my command would be "cp pn /media/hda1/Music/", correct?
[01:54] <tbuss> has anyone heard of ftp_conntrack and how I would turn it on
[01:54] <jrib> ernz: yes, to copy the "pn" file
[01:54] <mihailo> im now plowing through synaptic, but i dont know what to upgrade
[01:54] <help_installing> the first has 3, the remaining have ext, one has swap
[01:55] <Paddy_EIRE> reitblatt, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12083/
[01:55] <jrib> mihailo: which step are you on on the wiki?
[01:55] <Shaba1> thats a 6.06 version
[01:55] <Shaba1> but at least I will have it on the laptop
[01:55] <ernz> jrib: I am getting error "cp: omitting directory `pn'"
[01:55] <jrib> ernz: cp -a
[01:55] <lufis> help_installing: Just use the first I guess
[01:55] <help_installing> lufis: I want to delete them all, but in GParted I can only access them individually though the dropdown in the top-right
[01:55] <lufis> help_installing: I don't know, that's strange
[01:55] <qbert_> im having trouble getting my intel wireless card working with ubuntu ( lenovo thinkpad ) , can sem to find any info on it , any ideas ?
[01:55] <qbert_> the card shows up, it just doesnt connect
[01:56] <tbuss> looking for help with ftp config, anyone hear have any success
[01:56] <reitblatt> Paddy_EIRE: try running ./configure from the /packages/QFlash/qflash-0.1-src directory
[01:56] <Paddy_EIRE> ok
[01:56] <lufis> help_installing: Deleting them one by one works, right?
[01:56] <help_installing> lufis: yes but they are still seperate
[01:57] <lufis> help_installing: Try removing the usb drives (they are drives, right?) and restarting the installation
[01:57] <viator> !ati
[01:57] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:57] <help_installing> lufis: I don't need one called  ...video....
[01:57] <Shaba1> how hard is it to upgrade jrib?
[01:57] <Nitro> How do I remove my sda5 icon form my desk?
[01:57] <Paddy_EIRE> reitblatt, bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[01:57] <lufis> help_installing: have you tried restarting the installation? maybe it messed up
[01:57] <ernz> jrib: Same thing, my mouse is going all coppy, and everything has slowed to a halt.
[01:57] <jrib> Shaba1: not difficult at all, I'll send you the info
[01:57] <jrib> !upgrade > Shaba1    (Shaba1, see the private message from ubotu)
[01:57] <help_installing> lufis: the installation fails
[01:58] <lufis> help_installing: Can you take a screenshot maybe?
[01:58] <reitblatt> Paddy_EIRE: hunt around for a file named configure
[01:58] <help_installing> lufis: if I choose the automatic option
[01:58] <tbuss> is it possible to setup a ftp server so that computers running something other than linux can connect
[01:58] <Oswy> Hey, my gksudo gedit can't open the display.
[01:58] <Bright-Light> Flannel: Are you her

[01:59] <jrib> ernz: I don't know, I used to get that on my laptop.  dual cores help...  I know that there is some kernel patch to help with that.  I never really looked into the issue though to tell you the truth
[02:00] <matthew1429> when doing the "upgrade" from dapper to edgy, many packages say perl error "warning setting locale failed, please check your locale settings...etc

[02:00] <Bright-Light> jrib

[02:00] <matthew1429> shoudl I worry about that warning ?
[02:00] <ernz> jrib, Alright, cheers for your help
[02:00] <tbuss> is it possible to setup a ftp server so that computers running something other than linux can connect
[02:00] <jrib> Bright-Light: if it's support related, please ask here, otherwise, sure
[02:00] <sanityx> tbuss, any computer can connect
[02:00] <Bright-Light> Someone PM plase?
[02:00] <Paddy_EIRE> reitblatt, that "configure" file is no where to be found although I have found a "Makefile" if thats any good?

[02:01] <Paddy_EIRE> k
[02:01] <Bright-Light> Fine. Jrib: I forward port 22 and install openssh-server or whatever, I made them an account, how do they connect?
[02:01] <help_installing> lufis: using a screenshot in this way cancels the dropdown, I was hoping ito include it
[02:02] <lufis> tbuss: What was the link? (just replace filenames with xxx or something)
[02:02] <lufis> help_installing: There's a delay option
[02:02] <tbuss> the link was my ip
[02:02] <jrib> Bright-Light: are they using Linux?
[02:02] <Paddy_EIRE> silly me thx reitblatt
[02:02] <lufis> tbuss: xx.xx.xx.x:21 right?
[02:02] <Bright-Light> No
[02:02] <tbuss> lufis: correct
[02:02] <jrib> Bright-Light: windows?
[02:02] <lufis> tbuss: Ftp://ip.ip.ip.:21 ?
[02:02] <tbuss> lufis: no, not the 21
[02:02] <lufis> tbuss: Try that
[02:03] <Crazytom> Oswy, have you tried doing startx?
[02:03] <reitblatt> Paddy_EIRE: plus, it looks like qflash has been abandoned
[02:03] <reitblatt> http://www.etynos.org/qflash/
[02:03] <Paddy_EIRE> reitblatt, really?
[02:03] <Paddy_EIRE> reitblatt, just when I thought I found something
[02:04] <reitblatt> Paddy_EIRE: yeah, over a year and a half ago
[02:04] <kk1> is there a way to create an icon that runs a command  'wine ./Ventrilo.exe'  that normaly i run trough terminal ?
[02:04] <tbuss> lufis: that worked, but so did the ip without :21, but why cannot my family memebers connect, do they need client software
[02:04] <lufis> tbuss: They should be able to access ftp right thru a web browser
[02:04] <reitblatt> Paddy_EIRE: try gnash?
[02:04] <Paddy_EIRE> reitblatt, gnash?
[02:04] <Paddy_EIRE> !gnash
[02:04] <ubotu> An open source flash replacement.  It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/
[02:04] <tbuss> lufis: it was unsuccessful using ie
[02:05] <Paddy_EIRE> reitblatt, is it in the repos
[02:05] <lufis> tbuss: Well it *is* IE ;)
[02:05] <reitblatt> Paddy_EIRE: yup
[02:05] <lufis> tbuss: Is setting up apache real quick not an option?
[02:05] <tbuss> lufis: don't know if I can convince my parent to convert just yet
[02:05] <mihailo> sorry, my x server crashed again
[02:05] <lufis> tbuss: Apache will let them access it thru http which might be more reliable
[02:05] <tbuss> lufis: apache is configured as well, same problem they could not convert
[02:06] <lufis> tbuss: oh, hmm,
[02:06] <mihailo> im at step no 10 i think
[02:06] <mihailo> the nvidia xorg configure
[02:06] <tbuss> lufis: connect
[02:06] <lufis> tbuss: And you said it works on a remote linux box?
[02:06] <tbuss> lufis: yes that is correct
[02:06] <lufis> tbuss: Do you mind PM'ing me the link?

[02:10] <mihailo> yes

[02:12] <lufis> kk1: Yes, just type "wine ./Ventrilo.exe" in the "command" field
[02:12] <lufis> tbuss: Have you got aim or msn or something? i'll give you my handle here and you can send it
[02:13] <lufis> kk1: although it has to be the correct path
[02:14] <GionnyBoss> kk1: there is a script that if you run it at boot, you can just execute wine files as normal files
[02:14] <mihailo> enyc: any ideas?
[02:14] <GionnyBoss> kk1: at least, there was in fedora... I don't have wine installed here on Ubuntu
[02:14] <tbuss> lufis: ive got msn
[02:14] <kk1> lufis: yes i know but this command has to be executed inside the folder ventrilo
[02:14] <lufis> tbuss: samuella@gmail.com
[02:14] <lufis> kk1: Then it's no different, just include the absolute path
[02:15] <tbuss> lufis: what do you need just the address

[02:17] <Oswy> Can anyone help me with a gksudo gedit problem?
[02:17] <lufis> tbuss: Oh, nvm, you emailed it. One sec
[02:17] <ceeg> top is reporting that 97% of my physical memory is being used but i see no processes running indicating that this is true. what gives?
[02:18] <maly> hey owsy
[02:18] <maly> ywhats the problem man
[02:18] <cables> ceeg, Linux uses the RAM as a hard drive cache.
[02:18] <cables> ceeg, that's pretty normal
[02:18] <Oswy> "(gksudo:4016): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:"
[02:18] <Oswy> I get that error message.
[02:18] <VikJES> buckminst: is your motherboard based on the Intel 965 chipset?
[02:18] <maly> hm
[02:18] <Oswy> I mean, I guess it just can't open the display, but can that be easily fixed?
[02:18] <jrib> ceeg: try    free -m
[02:18] <maly> are you in gnome or kde?
[02:18] <ernz> jrib: Incase anyone else comes across the problems I did here are the solutions: 100% CPU during file transfer was the result of installing new NTFS support through automatix. Removal fixed this. 100% during idling was due to beagled-helper indexing during idling. removal from startup fixed this nicely. ;)
[02:19] <ceeg> cables, i see. thanks!
[02:19] <Oswy> Uhh.
[02:19] <Oswy> I'm in the terminal.
[02:19] <buckminst> VikJES - It is not. ULi M1697
[02:19] <jrib> ernz: ah I see
[02:19] <Oswy> I'm trying to install ATI drivers, because I can't get to the GUI at all.
[02:19] <lufis> tbuss: Are you running a firewall? Have you got port 21 open?
[02:19] <ernz> jrib: Live and learn, eh?
[02:19] <maly> aaa
[02:19] <walskiii> hey
[02:19] <kk1> lufis: i am getting the error ' failed to execute child process "/home/arebibo/vebtrilo/wine" (no such file or directory)
[02:19] <maly> so you download the correct drivers
[02:19] <maly> yfor your graphics card
[02:19] <Oswy> I have.
[02:19] <maly> ok
[02:20] <Oswy> But it says that I need to access that part to get it working.
[02:20] <maly> and what type is it
[02:20] <maly> .package
[02:20] <maly> .rpm
[02:20] <walskiii> Can I install some packages to my HD Ubuntu while booted the Ubuntu CD because the hd system crashes on boot?
[02:20] <lufis> kk1: No, not like that. paste "wine /home/arebibo/vebtrilo/executable filename here"
[02:20] <tbuss> lufis: i have a router, do I need to enable the port on the firewall?
[02:20] <Oswy> ATI Radeon 9800.
[02:20] <allen> Greetings. I run a dual booting system. Windows 98 (Only for my scanner and for Flash development) and Dapper. My Fat32 was named hda1 but now the name has changed to ",+2+8+>+D+J". I can't change the name back even under "sudo Nautilus."  Under /media the directory is still name hda1 and I can still access it. What is wrong and can it be fixed?
[02:20] <Oswy> All-in-wonder, I think.
[02:20] <mihailo> jrib: hi again! i get stuck at step no10 i think. when nvidia writes the xorg file, the x server chrashes with this:  cant start x: api mismatch, nvidia kernel module is 1.0-9755 while xmodule is 1.0-9746
[02:20] <lufis> tbuss: Yes, the port has to be open
[02:20] <maly> :D
[02:20] <tbuss> lufis: on the router
[02:20] <maly> do me a favour
[02:20] <Oswy> I'm using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[02:20] <Oswy> k
[02:20] <Foon> how long is fsck supposed to take?
[02:20] <maly> goto where your ATI driver is
[02:20] <tbuss> lufis: would this explain why the computers here can connect but not computers outside the network?
[02:20] <VikJES> I am not familiar with this brand or chipset, I know there's been a lot of reported problems with SATA and Edgy. But I thought the problems would've been solved with Feisty.
[02:21] <maly> and
[02:21] <Foon> 20GB drive on a 566MHz with 488MBs RAM..?
[02:21] <lufis> tbuss: Probably
[02:21] <maly> click rename
[02:21] <Uber_newbie> hey all, i'm curious, if i use the following command dpkg-reconfigure locales shouldn't i get prompted to choose language and etc.
[02:21] <GionnyBoss> is it safe to enable backported updates?
[02:21] <maly> copy all of the file name to me
[02:21] <McFrosty> I am about to switch over but with the LiveCD I can't get online. Using a Dell D510 Laptop, I am on wireless with no LAN connection available. How can I see if my wireless card is supported?
[02:21] <lufis> tbuss: I'm getting a timeout error. I think you have 21 blocked
[02:21] <Oswy> Hmm.
[02:21] <kk1> lufis: sorry  linux is really new. i have to oil my fingers and brain :)
[02:21] <Oswy> How do I get to where the driver is?
[02:21] <lufis> kk1: ;)
[02:21] <Oswy> Sorry, I'm new at this.
[02:21] <maly> well you downloaded right?
[02:21] <maly> me too
[02:21] <twysted> McFrosty> google it
[02:21] <Oswy> The drivers, yeah.
[02:21] <maly> but
[02:21] <Oswy> Heh.
[02:21] <maly> i installed my nvidia driver
[02:21] <maly> fine
[02:21] <jrib> mihailo: are you using the official ubuntu repositories only and installing nvidia-glx from there?
[02:21] <tbuss> lufis: I enabled it in the config file. Port forwarding for the router?
[02:21] <maly> right
[02:21] <maly> so
[02:21] <VikJES> buckminst: can you describe the problem ato me gain?
[02:22] <maly> what is the file type
[02:22] <buckminst> VikJES: Yeah, I noticed a few posts regarding SATA on the Intel 965 chipset when I was searching the forums. I just find it strange that with Feisty grub won't even work, where with Edgy I at least got the bootloader (though it munged other things)
[02:22] <tbuss> lufis: that should do the trick?
[02:22] <maly> of your driver you want to install
[02:22] <lufis> tbuss: What?
[02:22] <mihailo> jrib:well i added some adittional repositories, but i think this one was officiall
[02:22] <Crazytom> Oswy, you used apt-get to get the drivers right?
[02:22] <lufis> tbuss: I don't know. Just as long as port 21 is open
[02:22] <Oswy> Yeah, I did.
[02:22] <mihailo> jrib: im now in recovery mode so i cant check synaptic
[02:22] <buckminst> VikJES: I complete a successful install from Desktop or Alternate Feisty installs. It states GRUB has been installed to (hd0), which is my first boot device, SATA. Upon reboot, no grub, just the Windows boot loader that was there before.
[02:22] <Oswy> But fglrxinfo isn't working.
[02:22] <Crazytom> maly, he used apt-get
[02:22] <jrib> mihailo: apt-cache policy nvidia-glx
[02:22] <Oswy> I need to change some stuff in gksudo to do it.
[02:23] <goku> is there a way to set up auto log in? on ubunto ?
[02:23] <maly> ok
[02:23] <VikJES> buckminst: stupid question; are you using a very recent build of Feisty?
[02:23] <maly> well
[02:23] <maly> when i used yast
[02:23] <buckminst> VikJES - I just downloaded the ISOs yesterday.
[02:23] <maly> for my nvidia drivers
[02:23] <maly> which is like apt-get
[02:23] <Consty> /join #ubuntu+1
[02:23] <macd> buckminst, did you read the topic in #ubuntu+1 ;)
[02:23] <mihailo> jrib: nvidia-glx:

[02:23] <maly> hmm
[02:23] <buckminst> macd - #ubuntu+1?
[02:23] <maly> owsy
[02:23] <Foon> oi? how long will fsck take? it's been running ages already, 566MHz 488MBs RAM
[02:24] <maly> give me all
[02:24] <lufis> tbuss: Have no idea. Try it and see
[02:24] <jrib> !language | maly
[02:24] <ubotu> maly: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:24] <maly> the commands the you typed
[02:24] <macd> buckminst, yes, join #ubuntu+1 and read the topic, it addresses your problem
[02:24] <maly> with apt-get
[02:24] <Oswy> I've just followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[02:24] <maly> ok let me look
[02:24] <Oswy> So apt-get update
[02:24] <Oswy> k
[02:24] <Uber_newbie> how do i remove a chroot safely
[02:24] <maly> at this
[02:24] <mihailo> jrib: nvidia-glx:
[02:24] <mihailo>    Installed: 1.0.9746+2.6.17.12-1
[02:24] <tbuss> lufis: okay, i just wanted to make sure that it was on my end and that my parents didnt need to install anything to connect
[02:24] <Shaba1> Ok this 6.06 disk is taking almost as long to boot
[02:24] <VikJES> buckminst: I'm trying to remember of a way to confirm if you grub has been actually installed...
[02:24] <Uber_newbie> sudo rm -RF chroot/broke
[02:24] <Uber_newbie> ?
[02:24] <lufis> tbuss: Yeah, ftp should be available thru IE
[02:24] <Foon> anyone?
[02:25] <buckminst> macd - Ah, I see. I'm not upgrading from Edgy though, I'm doing a clean install of Feisty.
[02:25] <lufis> tbuss: But your local 21 port has to be open for them to connect
[02:25] <jrib> mihailo: yeah, you're using albertmilone's repo.  I don't know how to fix this right away.  Using 'envy' might take care of it or someone here might know more
[02:25] <tbuss> lufis: okay, I'll give it try, thanks for your help lufis
[02:25] <jrib> !envy > mihailo    (mihailo, see the private message from ubotu)
[02:25] <lufis> tbuss: np :)
[02:25] <Foon> what's weird is it already says [ok]  next to the fsck but it's just been sitting there
[02:25] <lufis> tbuss: install firestarter and enable port 21
[02:25] <macd> buckminst, that is the Feisty kernel, that was built recently, your isos would have been built with it
[02:25] <lufis> tbuss: sudo apt-get install firestarter
[02:25] <maly> hmm owsy
[02:26] <maly> when did you isntall ubuntu?
[02:26] <Oswy> Today.
[02:26] <buckminst> macd - Ah. So, I guess I shall just wait until newer ISOs get released?
[02:26] <maly> version>?
[02:26] <Oswy> Edgy.
[02:26] <tbuss> lufis: i get kinda of sketchy when messing around with firewalls, it seems something always goes wrong
[02:26] <mihailo> jrib: i tried using envy but it cant find my card... and when i try manuall install it also chrashes x server
[02:26] <maly> be more specific
[02:26] <lufis> tbuss: Nah, firestarter is really simple
[02:26] <macd> buckminst, yessir
[02:26] <Oswy> Should I just do it directly from ati.com, per that page?
[02:26] <jrib> mihailo: use official repositories then, that's my suggestion
[02:26] <buckminst> Alrighty then.
[02:26] <Oswy> 6.10, using the alternate CD.
[02:26] <maly> yes! :) but first
[02:26] <tbuss> lufis: thats what they said about ftp :)
[02:26] <kk1> lufis: thanks working perfectly
[02:26] <lufis> tbuss: ;)
[02:26] <maly> i suggest you re install ubuntu
[02:26] <mikebeecham> hello...can anyone tell me why Ubuntu does not recognise the screen resolution of 1280 x 1024?  I've just installed it onto another machine and it will only go upto 1024 x 768?
[02:26] <maly> because
[02:26] <maly> you used these commands apt-get
[02:27] <maly> so
[02:27] <maly> you might conflict the drivers
[02:27] <maly> like i did
[02:27] <maly> on suse
[02:27] <Oswy> Hmm.
[02:27] <Oswy> k
[02:27] <mihailo> jrbi: ok, will do. but what now? should I uninstall something?
[02:27] <maly> but now i have ubuntu gamers edition
[02:27] <maly> sry
[02:27] <maly> but
[02:27] <jrib> !enter | maly
[02:27] <ubotu> maly: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:27] <mihailo> jrib: ok, will do. but what now? should I uninstall something?
[02:27] <maly> thats the way it goes :D
[02:27] <Oswy> k
[02:27] <maly> btw
[02:27] <viator> when i do flgrxinfo it says dri missing and that its using mesa
[02:27] <maly> what are you wanting to do on ubuntu?
[02:27] <maly> what is your purpose
[02:27] <Oswy> I'm just switching from XP.
[02:27] <Oswy> I dunno, really.
[02:28] <viator> who do i get the proper driver for my laptop
[02:28] <maly> games?
[02:28] <Oswy> No.
[02:28] <goku> what is  a good newsgroup software for linux?
[02:28] <jrib> mihailo: maybe this can help you http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Edgy .  I'm just pointing you at docs because I don't have any experience here
[02:28] <maly> well if not games you made a good choice :)
[02:28] <Oswy> Haha.
[02:28] <Oswy> Yeah.
[02:28] <Oswy> k, I'll try reinstalling.
[02:28] <mikebeecham> hello...can anyone tell me why Ubuntu does not recognise the screen resolution of 1280 x 1024?  I've just installed it onto another machine and it will only go upto 1024 x 768?
[02:28] <maly> oki doki
[02:28] <jrib> mihailo: the part about kernel upgrades will probably fix your issue
[02:28] <KromiX> hi
[02:29] <maly> hey what is the best version of wine to use on ubuntu gamers edition without no slow rendering
[02:29] <jrib> !fixres > mikebeecham    (mikebeecham, see the private message from ubotu)
[02:29] <lufis> mikebeecham: Your xorg.conf file is probably not right
[02:30] <lufis> !display
[02:30] <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
[02:30] <mikebeecham> lufis: would I also have to install nvidia drivers?
[02:30] <matthew1429> bah
[02:30] <matthew1429> upgrade is locking on "installing tomboy"
[02:30] <KromiX> .
[02:31] <lufis> mikebeecham: I'm not familiar with graphics drivers, but maybe
[02:31] <Foon> Oii? could someone answer me?
[02:31] <maly> i play conter strike 1.6 nonsteam and when i play it is terrible fps goes from 100 to 40 up and down all the time and the gameplay is really slow ??!?
[02:31] <lufis> maly: wine isn't perfect yet
[02:31] <Shaba1> ok guys
[02:32] <Foon> ...
[02:32] <maly> what about cedega ?
[02:32] <Foon> hello?
[02:32] <Shaba1> I got to the 6.06 desktop
[02:32] <lufis> Foon: what's the issue?
[02:32] <mikebeecham> lufis: thanks anyway.  I'm really not sure what to do with this, and I've heard a few horror stories about messing with my X :(
[02:32] <Shaba1> now where is the install icon like there is in 6.10?
[02:32] <Shaba1> or is there one
[02:32] <Foon> finally! thanks lufis..
[02:32] <Shaba1> ??
[02:32] <Foon> I restarted the machine and now it's been fscking for ages, how long is it supposed to take?
[02:32] <lufis> mikebeecham: Just make sure you backup the xorg.conf file beforehand. Then if anything goes wrong, restore it via the command line :)
[02:32] <Foon> it has been sitting at fsk..[ok]  but not going any further
[02:33] <lufis> Foon: Try rebooting? maybe it got hung
[02:33] <nexes> Foon: There wasn't a bar telling you what percentage done it was?
[02:33] <lufis> Foon: Alt + sysrq RSEIYB
[02:33] <lufis> whoops, RSEIUB
[02:33] <Foon> huh lufis?
[02:33] <lufis> er, actually, let me look that up
[02:33] <hase> what's the command to test direct rendering?
[02:33] <Foon> I don't know if it's hung, this is actually after a reboot
[02:33] <lufis> Foon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSEIUB
[02:34] <lufis> Foon: Oh, weird
[02:34] <nexes> Foon: Did a progress bar ever display while it was fsck'ing?
[02:34] <SeveredCross> hase: glxgears..
[02:34] <SeveredCross> Or you can do glxinfo | grep -i direct
[02:34] <maly> win4lin       CEDEGA  5.2     WINE 0.9.10 ?? which works better to play counter strike 1.6 nonsteam
[02:34] <Foon> the first time it did this too, but I rebooted it because it was taking forever...now it's doing it again, but I let it run in case it was just a case of time
[02:34] <hase> thanks
[02:34] <Foon> nexes: no
[02:34] <nexes> Foon: Okay. What size drive is it?
[02:34] <brophat> are some of those gui driven firewalls in the packages that you can easily install?
[02:35] <lufis> brophat: Firestarter is very userfriendly
[02:35] <Foon> 20GB drive on a 566MHz with 488MBs RAM..
[02:35] <lufis> brophat: sudo apt-get install firestarter
[02:35] <maly> win4lin       CEDEGA  5.2     WINE 0.9.10      CROSSOVER ?? which works better to play counter strike 1.6 nonsteam
[02:35] <maly> pls pls
[02:35] <nexes> I have a 200GB drive that acts odd. It never displays the progress bar, and it always takes long than other drives to fsck.
[02:35] <brophat> lufis so it is in the packages. I thought installing software was point and click
[02:35] <Foon> this is 20GBs though..not 200
[02:35] <nexes> Longer than my 300GB, even. Eventually it does finish though, although it takes up to 10 minutes. Has long has yours been checking?
[02:36] <gnu-linux> maly WINE 0.9.32
[02:36] <Foon> about an hour if not longer
[02:36] <lufis> brophat: It is, but there's multiple avenues for installing things
[02:36] <nexes> Oh wow.
[02:36] <maly> ok gnu-linux
[02:36] <lufis> brophat: Not like pasting a command into the terminal is hard or something ;)
[02:36] <maly> thx
[02:36] <Foon> this is on a P1 566MHz with 488MBs RAM though
[02:36] <maly> lets put it to the test
[02:37] <brophat> lufis it is for my brother. he has been on windoze all his life
[02:37] <twysted> foon why are you installing on that lol
[02:37] <nexes> There's a chance fsck might not be able  to fix whatever is wrong with the partition.
[02:37] <Foon> twysted: giving it a second life
[02:37] <brophat> lufis so you could do it point and click as well right?
[02:37] <lufis> brophat: Just tell him to go to applications > accessories > terminal, and paste
[02:37] <Foon> I got it for free
[02:37] <lufis> brophat: Yes, he could open Synaptic and install it that way
[02:37] <twysted> foon, just giving you hell ;) are you installing using the vanilla cd
[02:37] <nexes> I know sometimes fsck won't go ahead without user input..there's a way to get it to ask for input though I believe.
[02:37] <Foon> Edgy LAMP
[02:38] <Shaba1> GUYS
[02:38] <brophat> lufis i thought ubuntu has that intall new software button
[02:38] <Shaba1> is there and HD intall icon in 6.06?
[02:38] <matthew1429> how would a fresh install of edgy desktop differ from server edition?
[02:38] <Shaba1> or is that a menu choic I need to make?
[02:38] <quaal> hello i'm trying to setup this raid1 array in md.. im not sure what i'm doing wrong here http://pastebin.ca/409802 ??
[02:38] <nexes> Server edition has no desktop environment.
[02:38] <Foon> nexes: It doesn't even seem to want to give me a prompt or anything though
[02:38] <matthew1429> ahh
[02:38] <matthew1429> okay
[02:39] <tonyyarusso> Server has a different kernel too
[02:39] <nexes> Foon, do you have a live CD handy?
[02:39] <Foon> yeah
[02:39] <matthew1429> i need to learn how to vnc my server anyway
[02:39] <lufis> brophat: There's lots of ways of installing things. If you go to Add/remove programs on the applications menu and search for "Firestarter" i'm sure you could install it that way too
[02:39] <maly> gnu-linux ?
[02:39] <nexes> You could try running that, mounting the drive in question, and then fsck'ing it from a terminal.
[02:39] <kbrooks> boo
[02:39] <maly> you there
[02:39] <nexes> The same problem drive I mentioned before originally required me to do that.
[02:39] <Foon> another fsck? :S
[02:40] <Foon> ah
[02:40] <nexes> Yeah, but in this case, you'll get more control over it. =P
[02:40] <Foon> heh
[02:40] <gnu-linux> yes
[02:40] <brophat> lufis ok thanks
[02:40] <lufis> brophat: :)

[02:44] <byen> anyone here install feisty on a computer that came preinstalled with vista?
[02:45] <gnu-linux> yes those one are better, they got better quality
[02:45] <maly> so what do you use?
[02:45] <Kunk> BeastlyKings: what's the question?
[02:45] <maly> wine cedega crossover?
[02:45] <gnu-linux> wine
[02:45] <maly> version?
[02:45] <BeastlyKings> My boot loader won't load windows at startup

[02:46] <greig_> hey all , ive just installed firestarter from synaptic, but where does it install to so i can run it.?
[02:46] <maly> do you play cs? what graphics card you got?
[02:46] <Kunk> BeastlyKings: using grub?
[02:46] <BeastlyKings> yes
[02:46] <maly> oo you just downloaded wine 0.9.33 :D?
[02:46] <lufis> greig_: System > administration > firestarter
[02:46] <gnu-linux> yeah
[02:46] <maly> do u play cs
[02:46] <greig_> lufis : lol thanks,
[02:46] <MattCampbell> For a somewhat old computer with a 600 MHz Pentium 3 processor and 384 MB of RAM, which I'm setting up for a user with no prior Linux experience, would GNOME or KDE be feasible?
[02:46] <lufis> greig_: :)
[02:46] <mikebeecham> Can someone help me understand why X-Window has not changed my screen resolution, when I asked it to be set to 1280 x 1024?
[02:46] <MattCampbell> Or would Xfce be better given the limited resources?
[02:46] <Kube> [M] orpheus: ths?
[02:47] <gnu-linux> no i play call of duty 2
[02:47] <[M] orpheus> Kube: thanks :D
[02:47] <maly> what graphics card you got
[02:47] <Kunk> BeastlyKings: looked at the example config for grub & windows? Does it match?
[02:47] <Kube> what for?
[02:47] <lufis> mikebeecham: Did you take a look at that link?
[02:47] <gnu-linux> i got agforce
[02:47] <lufis> mikebeecham: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:47] <maly> do you notice any performance like SLOWNESS ?
[02:47] <gnu-linux> gforce
[02:47] <who_> has anyone here got experience with POWER PC?
[02:47] <mikebeecham> lufis: I did mate, and followed the instructions.  I went through setting up my X-Window again, but nothing changed
[02:47] <[M] orpheus> Kube: wrong nick =S... sry =(
[02:48] <who_> I'm new to ubuntu on mac but NOT new to ubuntu
[02:48] <maly> lagy fps go up and down slow gameplay does this happen to you?
[02:48] <Kube> [M] orpheus: no worries :)... someone does keep stealing it :/
[02:48] <BeastlyKings> Kunk, I do not follow what you are saying, but here is this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11956/  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11954/
[02:48] <mikebeecham> lufis: and the link is down as well, which makes going back over it a little difficult
[02:48] <lufis> MattCampbell: I would say so. I don't run on that much memory and gnome works well
[02:48] <jason0_> Is there a way to make icons only appear on specific monitor (I'm running dual head)
[02:48] <lufis> mikebeecham: Hm
[02:48] <gnu-linux> no
[02:48] <maly> what is your linux called?
[02:48] <lufis> MattCampbell: The important thing is the swap is big. 500 mb is good
[02:49] <gnu-linux> ubuntu feisty
[02:49] <mikebeecham> lufis: after setting up my X-Window again, I went back into my screen resolution, but there is only the settings of 1024, 800 and 640
[02:49] <Generalmozamota> Ok, I am having some trouble trying to boot from a hard drive on a sata pci card
[02:49] <lufis> mikebeecham: I dunno. i had the same problem but reconfiguring X fixes it
[02:49] <lufis> fixed*
[02:49] <BeastlyKings> Kunk?
[02:50] <maly> and
[02:50] <maly> do you use the update tool ?
[02:50] <mikebeecham> lufis: strange, I know...not really too sure what to look at now.  I've installed everything to do with nvidia that I can via Synaptics, but nothing there either
[02:50] <maly> or manually install?
[02:50] <maly> wine
[02:51] <giskardd> i seem to have messed up synaptic package manager, i get this error:  E: The package mfc5440cnlpr needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.  E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[02:51] <Kunk> BeastlyKings: Perhaps I'm not the best one to help - haven't used windows in 6 years - but did you load the bootloader in MBR or in boot partition?
[02:51] <twysted> mikebeecham> you may have to reconfigure X
[02:51] <gnu-linux> i installed the 0.9.32 from update tool and it upgraded to 0.9.33
[02:51] <giskardd> then it shows no packages on the list
[02:51] <mikebeecham> twysted: Yeah, I just tried that and nothing changed
[02:51] <maly> did you run any commands like
[02:51] <maly> opengl
[02:51] <maly> directx
[02:51] <maly> maybe?
[02:52] <twysted> mikebeecham> what do you mean nothing changes
[02:52] <gnu-linux> no, for what?
[02:52] <maly> well i read on forum
[02:52] <Kunk> BeastlyKings: I have a hunch it's in the MBR. Can you load Ubuntu properly, and Windows is the one that is not accesible?
[02:52] <maly> this
[02:52] <gnu-linux> ok
[02:52] <BeastlyKings> Kunk: I'm not sure, all I did was have the installer do everything for me but now after a couple days it doesn't work.
[02:52] <maly> wait to paste
[02:52] <gnu-linux> ok
[02:52] <BeastlyKings> Kunk: Yes ubuntu is fine
[02:52] <ammiel> Hello
[02:53] <maly> found it
[02:53] <maly> ./configure --enable-opengl
[02:53] <maly> BUT
[02:53] <maly> this must mean
[02:53] <ammiel> are there other dvd encryptions other than CSS?
[02:53] <mikebeecham> twysted: my screen resolution will not any higher than 1024 x 768.  I have reconfigured X and included the 1280 resolution, but when I finish configutration and go back to my screen resolutions, it still does not appear and I cannot go up a res!
[02:53] <ammiel> I have a dvd I can't seem to even mount, and I have css........
[02:53] <gnu-linux> that'swhen ur compiling
[02:53] <nexes> ammiel: No.
[02:53] <maly> yes
[02:53] <Kunk> BeastlyKings: Windows is notorious for wanting the boot sector to itself (as in MBR) so you will probably have to google for multiboot - I had the fiel a one time, but . . .
[02:53] <maly> and you can only compile it if you download tar.gz right ?
[02:54] <gnu-linux> yes and the .tar.bz2
[02:54] <maly> so this means i cant download that filetype ?
[02:54] <nexes> ammiel: The disc should mount regardless, the libdecss library should only affect whether or not a movie viewing app can decode/display it.
[02:54] <gnu-linux> yeah if u are able to compile it
[02:55] <maly> eh
[02:55] <maly> hmm
[02:55] <maly> are you english ?
[02:55] <maly> fully
[02:55] <gnu-linux> yeah
[02:55] <maly> hm
[02:55] <maly> so
[02:55] <maly> i should
[02:55] <BeastlyKings> Kunk, thanks, I'll look that up
[02:55] <maly> download tar.gz
[02:55] <maly> of wine
[02:55] <maly> and compile it with ./configure --enable-opengl
[02:55] <maly> ?
[02:55] <gnu-linux> no
[02:56] <Pelo> maly,  are you trying to install wine ?
[02:56] <maly> and why not?
[02:56] <gnu-linux> u have to do a couple step
[02:56] <Clint_> Hey
[02:56] <Stormx2> What is a "u" ?
[02:56] <gnu-linux> that one is the first one
[02:56] <maly> no im trying to make wine performance on cs nonsteam 100% like using windows normal :D
[02:56] <Clint_> Grub doesn't have vista in it, how do I add vista to the list of OSes?
[02:56] <maly> can you tell me them
[02:56] <Kunk> BeastlyKings: sorry I can't help mor, but in the Ubuntu help forum I think that's where I saw it. I'm going back to play on my Mandriva box until I get my prob fixed.
[02:56] <ott0> the config script for php-gtk is saying I don't have GLib ... searched for glib in synaptic and didn't seem to find it, anyone know what's up?
[02:56] <Pelo> Clint_,   ask in #grub
[02:57] <ammiel> nexes, It doesnt, I try mounting in terminal and it says trying to mount read-only then it says specify filesystem type
[02:57] <HipotermiA> out
[02:57] <maly> pelo you know how to tweak wine ?
[02:57] <ott0> checking for GLIB - version >= 2.6.0... no
[02:57] <Pelo> maly,  try asking in #winehq
[02:57] <BeastlyKings> Kunk, don't worry, I'll post it on the forums aswell to see if I get some more answers
[02:57] <maly> aa yes
[02:57] <maly> good idea
[02:57] <maly> except
[02:57] <maly> i dont know how to use irc :D
[02:57] <jaybuntu> god I love ubuntu and debian
[02:57] <maly> tell me where i go to type new servers to connect
[02:58] <jaybuntu> it well......is my fav distro's
[02:58] <maly> pls
[02:58] <Pelo> maly,    type  /join #winehq
[02:58] <Stormx2> ott0: sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
[02:58] <maly> ok thanks
[02:58] <jaybuntu> or...
[02:58] <quaal> anyone know what causes this when trying to create a raid array mdadm: /dev/md0 does not appear to be an md device
[02:58] <Clint_> Pelo all you're doing is sending people to other chans :}
[02:58] <Clint_> :|*
[02:59] <h1st0> lol
[02:59] <Shaba1> I think this laptops cd is misalinged
[02:59] <Pelo> Clint_,   I'm sending ppl to the right channel
[02:59] <ott0> thanks Stormx2
[02:59] <jaybuntu> maly
[02:59] <nexes> ammiel: I'm not sure how exactly to mount a disc by the command line..do your discs normally auto-mount?
[02:59] <Shaba1> or I do not have enought ram to install ubunto
[02:59] <Shaba1> becaue it should not take this long
[02:59] <ammiel> nexes, yeah
[02:59] <quaal> Pelo, any linux raid channels?
[02:59] <Generalmozamota> I could use someone's help trying to get a hard drive to boot on an sata pci card
[02:59] <Clint_> Pelo, type /join #your_mom
[02:59] <h1st0> Shaba1: you can do a check of the media from the menu when you boot to the cd.
[02:59] <Stormx2> nexes: Depends, but basically "sudo mount /media/cdrom"
[02:59] <Pelo> quaal,  not that I know of
[03:00] <h1st0> lmao
[03:00] <Moitio> documentation site down?
[03:00] <h1st0> No one in #your_mom
[03:01] <h1st0> lol
[03:01] <nexes> Stormx2: Well, you'd need to specify the device.
[03:01] <Stormx2> Lets take this #outside.
[03:01] <leafw> the ubuntu launchpad website does NOT accept any more bugs
[03:01] <leafw> is that perfect, or the servers are screwed?
[03:01] <notwen> hello, anyone familiar w/ smbfs? I'm wondering how i would go about adding this shared drive to my /etc/fstab?
[03:01] <nexes> Like, sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
[03:01] <Stormx2> nexes: not if its in fstab
[03:01] <h1st0> or to #ubuntu-offtopic would be better
[03:01] <Pelo> leafw,  might be getting ready for the next release
[03:02] <h1st0> notwen: just add a line
[03:02] <Pelo> I'm done
[03:02] <nexes> Ahah, okay then.
[03:02] <leafw> Pelo : I thought so too, but man, bringing up one function to bring down another is not a good idea
[03:02] <h1st0> notwen: I'm mounting my samaba share on boot from my server.
[03:02] <h1st0> notwen: you just have to use dmask and umask to set permissions.
[03:02] <Frag1le> hi
[03:02] <notwen> //servername/sharename /mountdirectory smbfs credentials=/home/myhomedirectory/.smbpassword,uid=notwen 0 0
[03:02] <notwen> what is servername and sharename?
[03:02] <__mikem> Did someone just get banned?
[03:02] <tbuss> ftp is a disaster, i have received tons of help but Murphy is still here
[03:02] <h1st0> notwen: the servername
[03:03] <notwen> in comparison to my windows workgroup?
[03:03] <h1st0> notwen: and the share name
[03:03] <h1st0> notwen: or you can do //192.168.1.1/sharename
[03:03] <Shaba1> Ok shit
[03:03] <h1st0> notwen: well if the linux box is on the same workgroup you just use the hostname of the server in there.
[03:03] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy
[03:03] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:03] <Shaba1> here we go for the 5th time
[03:03] <__mikem> tonyyarusso, you beat me to it
[03:04] <tbuss> how can computers on my local network connect to ftp but outside the network ftp is not accessible. I have opened all necessary ports and configured my router accordingly, what else could be the problem
[03:04] <h1st0> tbuss: you shouldn't have to open or forward ports.  Unlessyou are runing some sort of firewall some where.
[03:05] <wilo> hello all
[03:05] <nexes> h1st0: He has a router.
[03:05] <tbuss> h1st0: i have a wireless router installed
[03:05] <catxk> what good bittorrent clients are there that supports multitorrenting and individual file prioritization EXCEPT azureus and ktorrent? something like utorrent would be swell... (not azureus!) thanks
[03:05] <jotham> hi i can't seem to get the default ubuntu install of vim to load any plugins, any ideas?
[03:05] <shatrat> have you tried azureus?
[03:05] <jaybuntu> god its so easy now a days setting up beryl on ubuntu
[03:05] <jaybuntu> i love it
[03:05] <h1st0> tbuss: well the router won't deny ftp from inside the network out.  But it would deny from the out in.
[03:05] <nexes> catxk: What's wrong with KTorrent?
[03:05] <Pelo> catxk,  utorrent running on wine  , or the latest version of deluge torrent , from the site
[03:06] <Virgil> Does anyone know of problems booting from the AMD64 disc? I just wanted to try the OS out and the first problem is that my keyboard doesnt seem to be enabled at the boot menu (Start/Install Ubuntu, other options, etc). After that it says loading kernel, proceeds to do so, then sits at a splash screen with a progress bar going back and forth for about 5 minutes, finally I get to a light yellow screen with my mouse. Nothing else on the screen 
[03:06] <catxk> nexes: doesn't run well on my machine for some reason...
[03:06] <tbuss> h1st0: I enebled port fowarding on the router for port 21 is there a range I should enter?
[03:06] <Frag1le> AMD 2500+, nforce2 abit an7, radeon 9700pro, Can't get ubuntu to boot. Live CD won't get passed the Progress bar starting ubuntu, Then tried the alternate cd..installed ubuntu same problem..won't get passed the Openings loading bar. Can anyone help me?
[03:06] <nexes> catxk: Are you looking for a basic torrent client, or are you on private trackers?
[03:06] <h1st0> tbuss: are you trying to ftp from inside of your network to the outside world?  Or the other way around?
[03:07] <Crazytom> it's been a while but i thought ftp was port 23?
[03:07] <h1st0> Frag1le: safe graphics mode or boot to recovery mode and installt he apropriate video drivers.
[03:07] <Dave_O`Tool> 21
[03:07] <catxk> nexes: just wanna do my fare share of tv show piracy is all, so basic with some extra fucntionallity to be bale to prioritize certain files in a torrent :)
[03:07] <Frag1le> won't work
[03:07] <h1st0> Crazytom: 21
[03:07] <tbuss> h1st0: when I try from the inside, success. When I try from the outside, no connection
[03:07] <shatrat> Crazytom, 23 is ssh I think
[03:07] <Frag1le> safe graphics mode has same problem
[03:07] <Dave_O`Tool> 21
[03:07] <h1st0> tbuss: okay
[03:07] <Crazytom> oh that's it
[03:07] <Frag1le> i tried the alternate cd, that's text mode
[03:07] <Frag1le> it installs
[03:07] <tbuss> h1st0: I called my parents to see if they could connect, they can't.
[03:08] <budman> Can anyone help me mount an ISO?
[03:08] <Frag1le> but then on the first boot, it hangs after the first progress loading bar
[03:08] <budman> its erroring with -o loop
[03:08] <Virgil> Nobody has any information on my problem? =[
[03:08] <nexes> catxk: If KTorrent isn't working right for some reason, then probably your best bet is uTorrent in Wine. As long as you're on public trackers, there are other clients like QTorrent that are okay.
[03:08] <h1st0> tbuss: well to get the outside world to be able to ftp in.  You need to go in your routers config and tell it to forward port 21 to an ip inside your network.  i.e. 192.168.1.XXX.  Then when a person outside trys to connect to your public IP all information would be forwarded to that computer inside.
[03:08] <Dave_O`Tool> to much reading virgil
[03:08] <Virgil> lol
[03:08] <nexes> But if you're on a tracker that monitors stats, any private tracker, Qtorrent will get you banned.
[03:08] <Dave_O`Tool> lol
[03:09] <Virgil> Basically Ubuntu freezes when I try to boot it from an AMD64 disc.
[03:09] <h1st0> tbuss: keep in mind your public ip will be different than your internal ip.
[03:09] <robdeman> cartmanhey folks.. Im on Ubuntu 6.10 .. but I really want to install mencoder from Feisty.. it as an updated version... can I temporarily use feisty as repository?
[03:09] <Dave_O`Tool> tbuss: Try the DMZ on your router
[03:09] <h1st0> tbuss: your publick ip is 68.47.183.124
[03:09] <tbuss> h1st0: I configured the router like you suggested, port forward on 21 and assign ip for computer that will share files
[03:09] <Dave_O`Tool> tbuss: ftp://68.47.183.124
[03:09] <catxk> nexes: ok, I'll look into wine, thanks a lot!
[03:09] <nexes> catxk: One bit of advice for uTorrent in Wine: Turn on a dedicated wine desktop with the 'winecfg' line in a terminal. uTorrent will randomly disappear at times if you don't. It's a weird bug.
[03:10] <h1st0> tbuss: Is your router set up for DHCP?
[03:10] <nexes> No problem. ;)
[03:10] <notwen> h1st0: would sharename be my windoze workgroup or computer name?
[03:10] <Smacky_Wolf> catxk, apparantly, there's a linux version of uTorrent being worked on.. Fingers crossed. =3
[03:10] <h1st0> notwen: Your computername on the network.
[03:10] <notwen> thanks
[03:10] <h1st0> notwen: or you can use the ip of the computer like I suggested earlier.
[03:10] <tbuss> h1st0: yes
[03:11] <tbuss> Dave_0`Tool: how can I connect with another ip other than the public, inside the network that is what Ive been doing
[03:11] <Dave_O`Tool> tbuss you sure your ip is the one you fowarded like port 21 to .100
[03:11] <h1st0> tbuss: okay well just leave it DHCP and specify the ip on your server outside of the routers range.  Like if its dhcp'ing 192.168.1.100 - 150  just have your server be 192.168.1.151  Then port forward 21 to your server in your routers config.
[03:11] <Pelo> nexes,  what version of wine are you using ? I have never had this problem on my utorrent/wine install , I even have it matching my theme
[03:12] <gnomefreak> robdeman: no its not safe
[03:12] <Dave_O`Tool> tbuss pm me
[03:12] <nexes> Pelo: I'm using the latest, but it's happened over the last few months with all the latest releases of Wine. I personally use rTorrent now though.
[03:12] <robdeman> gnomefreak: mmm
[03:12] <Dave_O`Tool> unless you are not reged
[03:12] <robdeman> gnomefreak: so I will need to compile it from SVN then
[03:12] <catxk> Smacky_Wolf: yeah but then there's the thing with it being bought by bittorrent inc (i.e. hollywoord) which doesn't sound to appealing :)
[03:12] <gnomefreak> robdeman: libc6 (>= 2.5-0ubuntu1)  is not in edgy so you would upgrade that and nothing will work
[03:12] <Pelo> nexes,  very odd
[03:12] <nexes> Pelo: It was odd. uTorrent would be running, but would somehow get removed from the screen. It happened to a friend as well.
[03:12] <gnomefreak> robdeman: yes
[03:12] <robdeman> gnomefreakL wouldnt that screw up my Ubuntu installation?
[03:13] <gnomefreak> or upgrade to feisty (also not really a good idea atm
[03:13] <nexes> I had to delete the settings files and reload my torrents, then it would return to normal.
[03:13] <robdeman> gnomefreak: i have a minimal install.. webserver.. thats all .no gnome etc
[03:13] <gnomefreak> robdeman: yes majorly
[03:13] <catxk> nexes: ok, thanks again :)
[03:13] <Pelo> nexes,  were you using the them function in winecfg ?
[03:13] <jesusphreak> Jordan_U: Okay, I am connected by a wired connection on Ubuntu
[03:13] <nexes> The uTorrent settings specifically, so it's certainly a uTorrent problem in wine.
[03:13] <Smacky_Wolf> catxk, hrmf... I'm not so sure about that being a bad thing.. but I do believe the effect remains to be seen
[03:13] <h1st0> Yeah upgrading to fiesty atm would not be a good idea atleast wait a few hours for some packages to be fixed.
[03:13] <nexes> catxk: No problem. ;p
[03:13] <nexes> Pelo: What do you mean?
[03:13] <gnomefreak> robdeman: libc is the main lib it is very important you use only the version compatible with your install
[03:13] <robdeman> gnomefreak: so there is no chance sombody compiled a binary if mencoder rc1 for Ubuntu 6.10 right..
[03:14] <gnomefreak> robdeman: no but if i look at it i might
[03:14] <Jordan_U> jesusphreak: What happens when you try: iwconfig ath0 ?
[03:14] <Dave_O`Tool> I get a wierd error
[03:14] <Dave_O`Tool> www.agservers.com/linux_error.JPG
[03:14] <robdeman> gnomefreak: so to compile it myself I need to install tons of libraries and stuff I guess
[03:14] <jesusphreak> Jordan_U: 'no such device
[03:14] <Pelo> nexes,  there is a function to select themes for wine runnig applications ,  to match your dekstop,  this function is a bit weird, thought that might be the problem
[03:14] <nexes> I didn't have anything other than the basic wine theme.
[03:14] <tbuss> h1st0; so assign 192.168.1.151 in my routers settings?
[03:14] <nexes> I just checked, and no theme was turned on.
[03:15] <Dave_O`Tool> hey tbuss
[03:15] <gnomefreak> robdeman: read the documentation i dont know without looking at it
[03:15] <robdeman> ok
[03:15] <Jordan_U> jesusphreak: Do macbooks use atheros cards?
[03:15] <Smacky_Wolf> OK... so I'm having problems with PCI devices in my laptop. Everytime I insert a PCMCIA or a mini-PCI card into my machine, I receive an IOREMAP failed error in dmesg.. anyone have any idea if there is something software level that I can do, or if it's a problem with my hardware that I can't rectify?
[03:15] <qbert_> argh, anyone have a wireless laptop working with ubuntu ?
[03:15] <tbuss> Dave_0`Tool: whats up
[03:15] <Dave_O`Tool> can you pm?
[03:15] <Smacky_Wolf> qbert_, I did before.
[03:15] <catxk> Smacky_Wolf: sure, I don't know, it's just something that doesn't really rhyme with the concept of  downloading movies with closed source software owned by hollywood :)
[03:15] <tbuss> Dave_0`Tool i dont think im registered
[03:15] <Dave_O`Tool> #routers if not
[03:15] <nexes> Pelo: If you're a hardcore torrenter, you should check out rTorrent.
[03:15] <qbert_> Smacky_Wolf:  where do i see a list of available wireless networks
[03:16] <Smacky_Wolf> qbert_, using KDE or GNOME?
[03:16] <viator> hey my broadcome 4318 Finally works with ubuntu
[03:16] <qbert_> gnome
[03:16] <Dave_O`Tool> #routers tbuss
[03:16] <Crazytom> qbert_, what kind of card are you using?
[03:16] <nexes> With 300 torrents and a 10Mbit line, it's under 30MB of RAM and at 0% CPU most of the time..and you can leave it running with screen.
[03:16] <jesusphreak> Jordan_U: probably so I'm not sure; I had thought it was only second gen Macbooks that used Atheros but I am not sure
[03:16] <viator> well i had to use fwcutter
[03:16] <qbert_> intel
[03:16] <tbuss> Dave_0`Tool: okay
[03:16] <viator> but it worked :)
[03:16] <qbert_> its a thinkpad t60
[03:16] <Crazytom> qbert_, iwlist <interface> scan
[03:16] <Hyper-cool> i'm dying here. How can i fix this HAL failure to initialize error?
[03:16] <Jordan_U> jesusphreak: Just a second, I am actually in OSx now :) let me boot Ubuntu
[03:16] <Pelo> nexes,  utorrent on wine works very well for me,  I did enough support for ut and wrote several guides , It would feel like a betrale,  but I can'T wait for the linux version
[03:16] <Smacky_Wolf> qbert_, head into Synaptic and do a search to see if you have any wifi scanners installed. If so, just run wifiradar or whatever to look at a graphical use
[03:16] <matthew1429> if I wanted to make a script to change permissions in directories that I specify in the script... do I just make a launcher?  what's the bash syntax?
[03:17] <GekiBlue> Is comix the best program for sequential image viewing? :O
[03:17] <Pelo> I'm off, later folks
[03:17] <darksoule> lets see if i can stay connected for 30 seconds... bah!
[03:17] <nexes> Take it easy, Pelo.
[03:18] <qbert_> Crazytom: thx :)

[03:18] <Crazytom> Hyper-cool, did you disable apic?
[03:18] <adx2> what's the package name for it?
[03:18] <viator> i tried the driver

[03:22] <odinriko> what does this mean? gcc is unable to create an executable file.

[03:27] <Jordan_U> Foon, lspci, and hope it is intel not ATI :)
[03:28] <Ahorner> foon1: go to system>administration>device manager
[03:28] <hijjt> odinriko, you can also purge it by 'sudo aptitude purge build-essential' and then reinstall it, which will get rid of its config files too
[03:28] <odinriko> hijjt, that only reinstalled the "build-essential" package and the error persists.
[03:28] <Hyper-cool> Crazytom, oh. i have not disabled ACPI yet... althoug i am noticing acpi errors on boot and in the syslog. i can't figure what they are affecting
[03:28] <Foon1> Ahorner: I'm using fluxbox, this is a Edgy LAMP
[03:28] <Foon1> I added the window manager et al manually
[03:28] <Jordan_U> throllz, dvdrip will rip dvd's :)
[03:28] <jesusphreak> Jordan_U: lo and eth0 both say 'interface doesn't support scanning' ... that's it

[03:32] <throllz> Jordan_U:  do you reccomend a specific format to save the Movies on teh PC? I mean on the PC AUDIO_TS and VIDO_TS doesn't make hell lotta sense
[03:32] <Ahorner> it means you dont have the right videocard drivers
[03:32] <tonyyarusso> r4nge: In /boot/grub/menu.lst, on the kernel lines
[03:32] <darksoule> will that work from a kubuntu disk or do I need to connect to the internet?
[03:32] <hijjt> odinriko, gcc is a c compiler, g++ is your cpp compiler`
[03:32] <Foon1> Ahorner 640x480 and 800x600, yeah
[03:32] <Foon1> the old screen supports up to 1024x768
[03:33] <Foon1> but it won't display for some reason. I'm on my regular screen atm
[03:33] <Ahorner> foon1: you need to find what video card you have and download the correct drivers from the manufacturer's website
[03:33] <r4nge> tonyyarusso: thanks.. trying to understand upstart a little better, perhaps this'll help
[03:33] <Smacky_Wolf> OK... so I'm having problems with PCI devices in my laptop. Everytime I insert a PCMCIA or a mini-PCI card into my machine, I receive an IOREMAP failed error in dmesg.. anyone have any idea if there is something software level that I can do, or if it's a problem with my hardware that I can't rectify?
[03:33] <Teletran1> does anyone know how to get 1024x768 mode on a fresh ubuntu install with a ati rage 128 card? i cant seem to get drivers for this bad boy
[03:33] <Ahorner> that should fix everything

[03:34] <Ahorner> its what i had to do lol my resolution is 1440x900 lol
[03:34] <hijjt> darksoule, you have to add the cd as a source in /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:34] <Foon1> ..and it was with a different machine

[03:42] <Foon1> vesa?
[03:42] <Foon1> ..ok
[03:43] <r4nge> any way to see a step by step of things starting during a reboot.. for example, seeing rcS scripts starting one by one, then rc2 scripts, etc
[03:43] <hijjt> Foon1, in your xorg.conf
[03:43] <Foon1> seems the mga driver is already installed
[03:43] <Foon1> aptitude has it bright white
[03:43] <hijjt> xserver-xorg-driver-mga
[03:44] <cafuego_> ls /etc/rcS.d/S* /etc/rc2.d/S* will give you  anice listing of the startup order ;-)
[03:44] <Zaiden> I need help with a problem running the Live CD.
[03:44] <luiX_> hi
[03:44] <Ahorner> foon1: you have to get the drivers, iyts the only way
[03:44] <Foon1> how do I switch to it, hijjt?
[03:44] <hijjt> Foon1, edit your xorg.conf
[03:44] <cafuego_> Foon1: It's quite possible that you need the closed mga driver off the matrox website.
[03:44] <Foon1> where's that, hijjt?
[03:44] <r4nge> cafuego: but i was actually hoping to see them start during the boot up
[03:44] <Foon1> cafuego_: ah
[03:45] <hijjt> Foon1, it is in /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[03:45] <Ahorner> foon1: exactly what cafu said
[03:45] <harvey_> I'm trying to rename a folder in Registry Editor and it wont do anything.  F2 and "Rename" wont let me rename it.  Advice?
[03:45] <Foon1> k
[03:46] <Zaiden> I get an error with the X Version of Windows when I try to run the Live CD normally.
[03:46] <hijjt> Ahorner, I thought the xorg-mga drivers would work for a g200
[03:46] <Ahorner> o
[03:46] <Ademan> does the archive manager not support 7zip files by default?
[03:46] <Ahorner> i have no clue
[03:46] <cafuego_> r4nge: Edit /etc/init.d/rc and make it print stuff.
[03:46] <StoneNote> !p7zip | Ademan
[03:46] <Ahorner> i think you have to have 7zip to unzip them
[03:47] <ubotu> ademan: p7zip: 7-Zip is a file archiver with high compression ratio. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.42.dfsg.1-2 (edgy), package size 315 kB, installed size 944 kB
[03:47] <dougie> !paste

[03:47] <Ademan> thanks StoneNote
[03:47] <StoneNote> yw
[03:47] <hijjt> Foon1, you can give the open source drivers a try by editing the Driver line under device in your xorg.conf or you can look up a closed source driver
[03:48] <darksoule> hijjt  It didn't work. Couldn't find package kubuntu-desktop. Maybe I added it to sources.list wrong...
[03:48] <Vuen> hey guys, how do i check my memory usage from a terminal?
[03:48] <jmg> free
[03:48] <jmg> vmstat
[03:48] <hijjt> darksoule, did you do an apt-get update?
[03:48] <Foon1> hmmm
[03:48] <Foon1> I'm at the MGA site
[03:49] <darksoule> does that require internet?
[03:49] <Foon1> what's the Matrox 834 rev A?
[03:49] <linxeh> !lts
[03:49] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[03:49] <vox754> Vuen, "free -m" also "top"
[03:49] <linxeh> bleh - any idea what the next LTS release will be ?
[03:49] <bitwiseshiftleft> question: i'm trying to install on a soekris box... i've tried pxeboot, but it prints boot messages at like 1 character per second and then doesn't accept input
[03:49] <Ademan> StoneNote: there's no way to make the ArchiveManager GUI recognize it though?
[03:49] <bitwiseshiftleft> any idea how do do this?
[03:49] <hijjt> Foon1, If i remember correctly it is a g200 mystique or something
[03:49] <bitwiseshiftleft> *to
[03:49] <Foon1> :O ok
[03:50] <hijjt> Foon1, http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/corpo/support/drivers/previous/prv_drv.cfm#Linux
[03:50] <linxeh> its a g200 yes
[03:50] <darksoule> brb
[03:50] <hijjt> Foon1, can you give me a rough estimate of what hardware it is
[03:51] <hijjt> Foon1, what cpu?
[03:51] <shark-1> how can i block myspace on my home wireless network
[03:51] <bitwiseshiftleft> as a related question, is it possible to burn the cd to flash, and then boot from flash?  and if so, what changes need to be made?
[03:51] <StoneNote> Ademan, I've never thought to look into it.  I've used it twice since I installed it. unpacked the 7zip file and then did whatever I needed with it.  So I can't say it's impossible.
[03:51] <Ahorner> how do u do the (quit:your text here) thing
[03:51] <hijjt> Foon1, then the linux 2002 drivers should be it
[03:51] <Foon1> Pentium 1
[03:51] <Ahorner> is it /quit (message)
[03:51] <Ademan> StoneNote: ah, a little dissapointed, as the archive manager does support rar after you install unrar, so i dunno...
[03:52] <Zaiden> Is it possible to change the X version of windows?
[03:52] <Foon1> I just downloaded matrox_driver-x86_32-4.4.0.tar.gz
[03:52] <hijjt> shark-1, good luck...
[03:52] <shark-1> hijjt, why?
[03:52] <Ademan> Zaiden: huh?
[03:52] <hijjt> shark-1, because it has thousands of domains and different ways to get to
[03:53] <budman> anyone here familer with the 915resolution fix?
[03:53] <Shaba1> Hey anyone have problems gettting Dapper to install on a computer with 256mb?
[03:53] <Foon1> erm, do I need something to open the file?
[03:53] <Ademan> budman: slightly, i had to use it in breezy, haven't needed it since
[03:53] <Foon1> I click Open, nothing happens
[03:53] <hijjt> Foon1, mgadrivers-2.0.tgz is probably going to work better for you
[03:53] <Zaiden> When I run the live CD and select the normal option to boot Ubuntu (Not Safe Graphics) I always get an error relating to the X version of windows.
[03:53] <shark-1> hijjt, i dont care about proxies and such i just want to block the site
[03:53] <Foon1> where's that, hijjt?
[03:54] <Ademan> Zaiden: you mean your X windows version
[03:54] <budman> Ademan: how did you load it on boot? Ive tried rc.local does not work. i have to boot in recovery mode and manuall type the 915 command and start gdm.
[03:54] <Zaiden> Yes
[03:54] <Ademan> budman: just to clarify (cause i never mucked with rc.local) we're talking about the lcd graphics fix right?
[03:55] <Ademan> i might be  confused though... lol
[03:55] <Foon1> hijjt: ?
[03:55] <budman> Ademan: correct for the wide screen resolution.
[03:55] <Foon1> where's the file you mentioned?
[03:55] <Ademan> budman: i specified it in my /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:55] <Shaba1> this is the fifth time and the third cd I am trying to get this to install on
[03:55] <hijjt> \http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/corpo/support/drivers/previous/prv_drv.cfm#Linux
[03:55] <hijjt> Foon1, under linux 2002
[03:55] <Foon1> k checking now, thanks
[03:56] <matthew1429> i keep getting x.org errors with the edgy install on my laptop (dell e1705) using the saffe graphics mode... will it be worth my time to do a text install?
[03:56] <Ademan> matthew1429: naw, fiesty's commin out soon
[03:56] <matthew1429> april 19th
[03:56] <matthew1429> can't wait that long
[03:56] <Ademan> hahah
[03:56] <budman> Ademan:  you loaded the 915resolution command in there?
[03:56] <jesusphreak> is there a way to completely reset my linux install without reformatting/reinstalling?
[03:56] <Shaba1> how does one do a text install??
[03:56] <Ademan> Shaba1: it's the "alternate install" cd
[03:56] <hijjt> shark-1, it is not that easy to block, you canuse your router but there are still really easy ways around it without using proxies
[03:57] <viator> reset?
[03:57] <Ademan> budman: so long as we're talking about the same thing, yep
[03:57] <Shaba1> ah so I would have to download an iso and burn it?
[03:57] <Ademan> Shaba1: yeah
[03:57] <matthew1429> lol
[03:57] <Shaba1> Ok I can do that
[03:57] <Foon1> got the file
[03:57] <Shaba1> Does it include grub
[03:57] <Shaba1> not grub
[03:57] <viator> well you can add a new user and delete your old user that might solve some problems
[03:57] <Shaba1> but ah gparted
[03:57] <bambie> guys i'm having trouble with burn ubuntu iso
[03:57] <Shaba1> that is the important part fo rme
[03:57] <harvey_> Just going to ask once again so I dont spam :).. I'm trying to rename a folder in Registry Editor and it wont do anything.  F2 and "Rename" wont let me rename it.  Advice?
[03:57] <viator> make sure nu user is admin
[03:57] <Ademan> Zaiden: well i reccomend either doing safe graphics mode OR once you see that error, hit enter until you get to a command prompt, and type sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf, find where it says "Driver "SOMETHING"" and replace SOMETHING with vesa, then save and exit and type startx
[03:58] <Shaba1> being able to partion the window hd in my laptop
[03:58] <hijjt> Foon1, put it in a directory and run tar -xvzpf ?? archive name
[03:58] <jesusphreak> well what I really need to be able to do is revert some system updates
[03:58] <Foon1> k
[03:58] <Ademan> budman: lemme dig it up, there was an option i used that fixed my lcd problem at boot
[03:58] <Shaba1> and getting it back if I need to take ubuntu off
[03:58] <viator> well youd have to see what packages were updated and installed
[03:58] <bitwiseshiftleft> does anyone here know if it's possible to burn the install cd to flash, then install from flash
[03:59] <budman> Ademan: I  basicly just need to get this 915resolution command to run before gdm boots automaticaly.
[03:59] <Foon1> ./install.sh ?
[03:59] <Zaiden> Ademan: ok
[03:59] <Zaiden> Thank you
[03:59] <bitwiseshiftleft> because the machine i want to install on doesn't have a cd drive
[03:59] <throllz> hi, is there a better p2p than Frostwire? This one zucks big cock, can't dl nuthing
[03:59] <viator> maybe theres some sort of changelog
[03:59] <hijjt> Foon1, check for a readme
[03:59] <Foon1> already CAT'd it :)
[03:59] <matthew1429> so I'm getting from you guys that my only option for installing edgy on this laptop is to do alternate install
[03:59] <matthew1429> ??
[03:59] <throllz> AWAITNG FOR SOURCES and Waiting On Busy Hosts
[03:59] <matthew1429> why would dapper work and this one wouldnt
[03:59] <vvlaw> hi~anybody here?
[03:59] <matthew1429> weird
[04:00] <Shaba1> bitwiseshiftleft let me know if you get and answer
[04:00] <cables> Is there a graphical frontend for F@H (which displays progress and stuff)?
[04:00] <matthew1429> severed cross didnt have any problems either
[04:00] <CoryK> does anyone know if there are any packages for enlightenment beta anywhere?
[04:00] <Shaba1> I have a clean 512mb flash
[04:00] <hijjt> shark-1, use outbound packet filtering of the myspace ip addresses on your router, it is probably going to take a while because there are many
[04:00] <bjron> anyone know what the difference between "Free" space and "Available" space (as reported by df or the system monitor) is?
[04:00] <hijjt> Foon1, is there a configure script?
[04:00] <Shaba1> and a 1gb one I can clean off quickly
[04:00] <bitwiseshiftleft> matthew1429: have you tried feisty?  it's not much more edgy than edgy
[04:00] <Shaba1> I think my cd is th eproblem
[04:00] <matthew1429> lol
[04:00] <matthew1429> everyone says don't do it
[04:00] <Ademan> budman: it's possible we're not talking about the same thing but in my menu.lst i had vga=791   as a boot option
[04:00] <cables> bitwiseshiftleft, best not to recommend pre-release versions.
[04:01] <jmg> shark-1: install a proxy server and block it that way
[04:01] <Foon1> hijjt: ./install.sh ? :)
[04:01] <bitwiseshiftleft> cables: true
[04:01] <jmg> jmg: or dns poisoning
[04:01] <matthew1429> bitwiseshiftleft: everyone says it's not stable dont do it and that I wont be able to upgrade from it
[04:01] <hijjt> Foon1, go for it
[04:01] <jmg> shark-1: i mean
[04:01] <enderxim> I've been running feisty awhile now with not a single crash or bug found. I haven't had a single complaint, and I like alot about it.
[04:01] <Ademan> budman: iirc there are other vga=SomeOtherNumber   so 915 might be one of them, either that or i'm totally off...
[04:01] <bitwiseshiftleft> matthew1429: won't be able to upgrade?  to what?
[04:01] <Foon1> k
[04:01] <jmg> im waiting for feisty xubuntu
[04:01] <matthew1429> to the next distro etc
[04:01] <enderxim> matthew1429, I'm running that right now
[04:02] <bitwiseshiftleft> oh, yeah, i dunno
[04:02] <matthew1429> the "official" distro if there are changes
[04:02] <bitwiseshiftleft> i mean, feisty is working better than edgy on my desktop right now... but edgy always had its issues
[04:02] <bitwiseshiftleft> and i don't know about upgrading
[04:02] <Foon1> errr
[04:02] <enderxim> bitwiseshiftleft, I agree, I have less issues with feisty than I did with edgy
[04:02] <Foon1> it wants the full path to my X11R6 directory
[04:02] <throllz> FROSTWIRE sox cock, any better p2p programs?
[04:02] <Foon1> what is it?
[04:02] <bitwiseshiftleft> still, best to be careful... it is a beta
[04:02] <vvlaw> i got a problem when i complie the mplayer, who can help me ?
[04:02] <Ademan> vvlaw: don't compile mplayer?
[04:03] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | throllz
[04:03] <ubotu> throllz: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:03] <enderxim> throllz, bit torrent
[04:03] <matthew1429> doesn't ubuntu have a little iso to d/l like 50 megs that gets everything from the net individually?
[04:03] <viator> feisty is 90% of what edgy should have been
[04:03] <diginet> Hi there :D
[04:03] <Ademan> vvlaw: but what exactly is the problem? (i sincerely reccomend you DON"T compile mplayer yourself)
[04:03] <enderxim> matthew1429, I think it's ubuntu minimal
[04:03] <Foon1> it wants the full path to my X11R6 directory, what is it?
[04:03] <Shaba1> any advise on a flash drive install?
[04:03] <vvlaw> Ademan icompiled mplayer already 
[04:03] <Dave_O`Tool> I think that is pclos
[04:03] <Dave_O`Tool> I could be wrong
[04:03] <throllz> w00t? Isn't a cock a male chicken?
[04:04] <Ademan> vvlaw: why? is there anything wrong with the precompiled one?
[04:04] <con-man> !botabuse | ubotu
[04:04] <ubotu> ubotu: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[04:04] <hijjt> Foon1, probably /usr/X11R6
[04:04] <con-man> lolololol
[04:04] <Foon1> k
[04:04] <hijjt> Foon1, I am used to gentoo though
[04:04] <Crazytom> how do you abuse a bot?
[04:04] <con-man> uh oh
[04:05] <Dave_O`Tool> !bot
[04:05] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:05] <con-man> phew
[04:05] <Foon1> you were right
[04:05] <Foon1> :)
[04:05] <vvlaw> Ademan: yes, compiled it.and worked fine,but there are no "xv" option in the output selection :(
[04:05] <viator> the onl problem i have with fiesty is my cursor bounces all over the place
[04:05] <viator> its got a mind of its own
[04:05] <bigdawg72989> How can I look up what video card driver I have and whether it is updated or not?
[04:05] <viator> its a synaptic touchpad
[04:05] <Ademan> vvlaw: what's wrong with the precompiled version that comes with ubuntu though?
[04:05] <Foon1> err
[04:05] <Ademan> bigdawg72989: i think it depends on your graphics card vendor
[04:06] <Foon1> it says all my drivers are up to date
[04:06] <bigdawg72989> If it helps i have an ATI mobility radeon x300
[04:06] <hiffy> whats that offtopic channel anyways? I want to make some non ubuntu related venting
[04:06] <Ademan> bigdawg72989: which driver set are you using? open source? fglrx? or what?
[04:06] <Jordan_U_> hiffy, #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:06] <hijjt> Foon1, check what driver it is using in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:06] <Foon1> k
[04:07] <bigdawg72989> well i used a program called envy i think but I dont think it worked right.  I was wondering if there is a way to look up what I am using
[04:07] <draeath> Is it possible to 'blacklist' certain kernels from being added to grub/menu.lst automatically?
[04:07] <Foon1> what line in the file?
[04:07] <yell0w> draeath, /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[04:07] <nexes> Debian's auto-magic app has problems.
[04:07] <_seanc_> Quick question, I changed my resolution and whenever I turn on my ubuntu box my monitor says "the resolution is to large, please resize and try again", how do I do that through command line?
[04:07] <hiffy> danke Jordan_U_
[04:08] <hijjt> Foon1, should be under section display
[04:08] <draeath> yell0w: read my message... kernels not modules
[04:08] <yell0w> draeath, oh, wrong one
[04:08] <hijjt> Foon1, there is a line with Driver in it
[04:08] <draeath> yell0w: :D i know that one
[04:08] <yell0w> draeath, probably comment out the items on the list then
[04:08] <vvlaw> Ademan: i can player tha avi files well,but i can only basic on "x11" output ~
[04:08] <yell0w> draeath, why would you do that though ? @_@
[04:08] <Foon1> monistor says Generic DPMS Monitor
[04:09] <hijjt> Foon1, the monitor is probably cool
[04:09] <Foon1> it says it is using the mga driver for Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G200 AGP
[04:09] <Foon1> :S
[04:09] <jmg> hello
[04:09] <Crazytom> anyone here ever use an ipod with ubuntu?
[04:09] <Foon1> but I saw no flicker or anything of the screen readjusting
[04:09] <hijjt> Foon1, what is the goal here?
[04:09] <wilo> is there a way to hide hdd and flash drives from comming up as icons on your desktop in ubunt?
[04:09] <h1st0> Someone just made over 6500 attempts at hacking my server.
[04:09] <wilo> Ubuntu*
[04:09] <Foon1> if I switch back to the old screen now, it'll probably still not display properly
[04:09] <pppoe_dude> wilo, yes
[04:10] <Foon1> to have my old screen (an AOC spectrum) display properly
[04:10] <wilo> h1st0: brute force?
[04:10] <wilo> pppoe_dude: how?
[04:10] <pppoe_dude> wilo, gconf-editor, then search for 'nautilus desktop' in keys
[04:10] <draeath> yell0w: well, i have backtrack2 loading from an ISO as a grub boot option... but whenever apt updates my kernel the updater script spams my menu.lst with "Ubuntu, Backtrack (recovery)" which don't work (because im loading an .iso as a ramdisk)
[04:10] <pppoe_dude> wilo, you should find one that says 'show mounted volumes'... just uncheck it
[04:10] <hijjt> Foon1, alright you need to setup the horiz-sync and vert-refresh of the monitor in that same file under monitor
[04:11] <draeath> yell0w: which is also funny because backtrack is Slackware :P
[04:11] <matthew1429> !text install
[04:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about text install - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:11] <yell0w> draeath, heh
[04:11] <vvlaw> Ademan, i mean that i want to let mplayer can be support the "xv" output,but it can't :(
[04:11] <hijjt> Foon1, HorizSync 30-75
[04:11] <matthew1429> I had downloaded a text install version earlier and now can't find it :(
[04:11] <hijjt> Foon1, VertRefresh 50-85
[04:11] <yell0w> draeath, but still that doesn't prevent you from booting out of what you want right ?
[04:11] <Foon1> ok
[04:11] <hijjt> Foon1 is what mine has right now
[04:11] <pppoe_dude> wilo, /apps/nautilus/desktop/volumes_visible
[04:11] <yell0w> draeath, or into what you want, rather ;)
[04:12] <Foon1> oh, but yours is a decent screen I assume :S
[04:12] <hijjt> Foon1, look up the monitor specs before you run x again
[04:12] <Foon1> mine's older
[04:12] <Ademan> vvlaw: i don't understand what compelled you to compile mplayer though
[04:12] <bigdawg72989> I have an ATI card, my xorg.conf file says Section "Device"
[04:12] <bigdawg72989> 	Identifier  "ATI Technologies, Inc. M22 [Radeon Mobility M300] "
[04:12] <bigdawg72989> 	Driver      "ati" Is there any way to look up whether this is updated or not?
[04:12] <Foon1> yea
[04:12] <hijjt> Foon1, mine is an old 17 in dell right now
[04:12] <Foon1> if I restart, it won't go straight into X will it?
[04:12] <draeath> yell0w: right... it does give me bootable kernels and my staticly defined stanza for backtrack too...
[04:12] <draeath> yell0w: its just an annoyane
[04:12] <wilo> pppoe_dude: thankyou
[04:12] <vvlaw> Ademan, complied mplayer through the sources,not by the apt-get way
[04:12] <wilo> it worked :)
[04:13] <pppoe_dude> wilo, yep
[04:13] <hijjt> bigdawg72989, xserver-xorg-driver-ati
[04:13] <yell0w> draeath, ssshhhhh, how many times a months is a kernel update dued ?
[04:13] <Ademan> vvlaw: yes, but why?
[04:13] <bruenig> what command can I use to tell me the number of lines of a text file
[04:13] <draeath> yell0w: I KNOW! just put the kernels in a subdirectory of /boot
[04:13] <yell0w> tsk tsk whiner ;(
[04:13] <hijjt> Foon1, maybe?
[04:13] <Foon1> ?
[04:13] <draeath> yell0w: or even in a different directory (the iso is loaded from outside of /boot)
[04:13] <Arroll> does anyone know where I can find the correct drivers for my nvidia 7600 GS card that i can install Beryl with AIGLX?
[04:13] <Foon1> what syncs would I set to make it (temporarily, at least) 60Hz?
[04:13] <Crazytom> what is easier to use banshee amarok or gtkpod?
[04:13] <hijjt> Foon1, what monitor is it?
[04:13] <Ademan> Arroll: nvidia's website
[04:14] <hijjt> Foon1, brand and model?
[04:14] <vvlaw> Ademan: is the have the "xv" selection support in your mplayer ? i don't have it
[04:14] <delirus> Crazytom:  All a matter of opinion, I prefer Amarok
[04:14] <Foon1> AOC Spectrum, hang on for the model
[04:14] <yotux> is there any docs for feisty yet?
[04:14] <Foon1> 4N
[04:14] <bigdawg72989> hijjt: I dont understand what you are asking?
[04:14] <bigdawg72989> Im a little new to all this
[04:14] <Ademan> Arroll: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-9755.html   if you're on a 32 bit system
[04:14] <Crazytom> delirus, why is that is it better or easier to install?
[04:15] <delirus> Crazytom:  My opinion:  it's the least annoying
[04:15] <jmg> they are all easy, apt-get install
[04:15] <Ademan> vvlaw: oh so the version that came with ubuntu didn't have the xv?
[04:15] <Crazytom> ok
[04:15] <jmg> i found amarok too bloated
[04:15] <Arroll> thanks!
[04:15] <hijjt> bigdawg72989, that is the display driver that is installed right now and it is using, do sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-driver-ati
[04:15] <jmg> i use beep
[04:15] <Ademan> Arroll: beware, it's a pain in the butt
[04:15] <delirus> Crazytom:  As a rule, no one ever shares my opinions :D
[04:15] <Arroll> oh ya?   how so?
[04:15] <draeath> in grub, hda5 is (hd0,4) correct?
[04:15] <hijjt> Foon1, ok HorizSync 30-50
[04:15] <Ademan> Arroll: you might consider googling a tutorial, i can explain the steps if you'd like though
[04:16] <yell0w> draeath, yes
[04:16] <ardchoille> draeath: Yes
[04:16] <hijjt> Foon1, VertRefresh 50-90
[04:16] <Crazytom> i just don't want to have to mess with it too much, i just want to get away from using xp for everything
[04:16] <Foon1> k, I'll put that in, thanks hijjt :)
[04:16] <alamo> Arroll: you can use vesa module with the glx i think
[04:16] <Ademan> vvlaw: yes i have the xv output in my mplayer, and i didn't compile anything myself
[04:16] <hijjt> Foon1, you may need to put some resolution lines in the screen section
[04:16] <Foon1> there are already some there I think..I'll check
[04:17] <vvlaw> Ademan, i see . you got it throught the apt-get install way?
[04:17] <Arroll> i found a guide on beryls website.   it give step by step instructions for the install but it says nvidia cards requre the non-free drivers to be installed.    was just wondering what that means and which drivers I need?
[04:17] <Foon1> yea there are
[04:17] <Ademan> alamo: use vesa drivers and AIGLX? ...no...
[04:17] <hase> I've just about given up on ever seeing "Direct Rendering: Yes"
[04:17] <Ademan> vvlaw: yep
[04:17] <Ademan> hase: ATI?
[04:17] <hijjt> Foon1, a line like Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[04:17] <hijjt> Foon1, ok
[04:17] <alamo> Arroll: and get the 100 refresh rate on the vesa
[04:17] <Jordan_U_> hase, What card?
[04:17] <bigdawg72989> I ran that and it said no candidate version, no packages to install...Does that mean my driver is up to date?
[04:17] <Jordan_U_> hase, And running Edgy or dapper?
[04:18] <hase> Nvidia geforce go 6600tn/6200tn
[04:18] <Ademan> matthew1429: they're the "alternate install cd" ISOs on the main ubuntu website
[04:18] <Arroll> ok so am i looking for the drivers on nvidias site, or these vesa drivers?
[04:18] <hase> edgy
[04:18] <drcode> hi all
[04:18] <Ademan> hase: what exactly is the problem?
[04:18] <alamo> Ademan: he has a nvidia card...
[04:18] <drcode> I have bout new laptop 64bit
[04:18] <hijjt> bigdawg72989, ubuntu upgrades automatically, with sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[04:18] <Foon1> hijjt: yea
[04:18] <hijjt> bigdawg72989, and the visual utilities do the same thing
[04:18] <Jordan_U_> Arroll, I would try the drivers from the repos before the ones on Nvida's site
[04:18] <h1st0> matthew1429: yeah the alternate iso
[04:18] <happy_nic> can anyone connect to windows ftp servers using curlftpfs?
[04:18] <Ademan> alamo: yeah? so? vesa doesn't have anything for 3d acceleration, let alone AIGLX
[04:18] <draeath> I love backtrack
[04:18] <h1st0> matthew1429: or you can use the netinstall.
[04:18] <hijjt> Foon1, did those work?
[04:18] <bitwiseshiftleft> anyone here know how to install ubuntu from flash?
[04:19] <jmg> happy_nic: yes
[04:19] <alamo> Ademan: hehe
[04:19] <bitwiseshiftleft> possibly with network?
[04:19] <Foon1> hang on
[04:19] <hijjt> happy_nic, what is a windows ftp server?
[04:19] <drcode> what pepole recommnded to install ubuntu 64bit or 32bit?
[04:19] <bigdawg72989> ok thanks....Its just wine keeps crashing my pc and the wine people think its a video card issue.
[04:19] <Jordan_U_> !install | bitwiseshiftleft
[04:19] <ubotu> bitwiseshiftleft: 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
[04:19] <Foon1> gotta put the sync stuff in first
[04:19] <alamo> Ademan: that's i wanna say...
[04:19] <ziggy> quit
[04:19] <vvlaw> Ademan: in my memory,i apt-get install it at first. and it maybe have the 'xv' optition in it.but after that i reinstall it through the sources. but it have no xv selection after i compiled it :(
[04:19] <Arroll> Jordan_U_: the guide here says the defauld "nv" drivers does not work
[04:19] <h1st0> drcode: I would install 32bit so that everything just works.  Unless you really need the speed.
[04:19] <drcode> k
[04:19] <Ademan> hase: what exactly seems to be the problem?
[04:19] <hijjt> bigdawg72989, try to install the fglrx driver for your video card, it should make it more stable for wine
[04:19] <drcode> there are poblem with 64bit ?
[04:19] <Ademan> and what have you done so far?
[04:19] <Jordan_U_> Arroll, There are nvida drivers in the repos, not just nv
[04:20] <muszek> hi... which runlevel is a default one?
[04:20] <Arroll> Jordan_U_: ok ill check that
[04:20] <Shaba1> this cd take foreever just to boot up
[04:20] <Jordan_U_> !nvidia | Arroll
[04:20] <ubotu> Arroll: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:20] <Ademan> Jordan_U_: he want's to do AIGLX
[04:20] <drcode> most linux packges are for 64bit?
[04:20] <Arroll> ubotu: thanks
[04:20] <bigdawg72989> Ok could I get a little guidance for that?
[04:20] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[04:20] <Ademan> the versions in the repositories are hopelessly outdated
[04:20] <hase> Ademan: I installed the nvidia drivers (first manually then with envy) and I still don't have direct rendering when I do glxinfo
[04:20] <Jordan_U_> Ademan, Ahh, didn't realise, never mind Arroll
[04:20] <hijjt> bigdawg72989, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:20] <Arroll> ubotu: will this driver support Beryl in AIGLX?
[04:20] <wilo> is there a way to make a system directory to a virtual drive?
[04:20] <Ademan> Arroll: that link about the BinaryDriverHowTo is still very relevant and helpful
[04:20] <bigdawg72989> great  thanks
[04:21] <alphab8> hi
[04:21] <hijjt> bigdawg72989, it should give it to you step by step
[04:21] <Jordan_U_> Arroll, The ones from the Repos won't work with AIGLX
[04:21] <Ademan> Arroll:  ubotu is our bot :-)    !Whatever will make ubotu spit out information about Whatever :-)
[04:21] <alphab8> I need some help with accesing the internet with ubutu
[04:21] <draeath> Anyone know how I can track down (and report useful information about) the cause of this issue: when using snd-usb-audio together with the proprietary nvidia drivers in fullscreen, every 1/4 second there is a 1/4 of silence.... like the sound is underrunning
[04:21] <alphab8> ?
[04:21] <hijjt> bigdawg72989, under the ati section
[04:21] <Jordan_U_> Arroll, Ubuntu is just a bot, I told ubotu to give that link because I didn't know you wanted AIGLX
[04:21] <Ademan> hase: envy ruined one system of mine, i'm a bit weary of it, but you can boot into a GUI right?
[04:21] <emet> !beryl
[04:21] <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
[04:21] <Foon1> grr
[04:21] <alamo> in my case, vesa+glx = one of ten nvidia+glx
[04:22] <alphab8> anyone care to help?
[04:22] <Foon1> vi won't let me type in numbers
[04:22] <Ademan> Jordan_U_: i'm pretty sure the BinaryDriverHowto describes a way to do the newer versions of the drivers
[04:22] <hase> Ademan: Yes, luckily, after I didn't the manual install I couldn't
[04:22] <hijjt> Foon1, ...  i would generally recommend using nano as a quick editor
[04:22] <happy_nic> actually I can connect to this windows server via curlftpfs. I just can't do anything after connecting. an ls will give me an io error.. I can mount all my unix ftp servers perfectly..
[04:22] <bratman> !source.list
[04:22] <Arroll> Jordan_U_: well i understand you can install Beryl with either XGL or AIGLX.   what exactly is the difference and which is easier to install??
[04:22] <bratman> !find source.list
[04:22] <bigdawg72989> ok thanks
[04:22] <Ademan> Foon1 are you familiar with vi? because vi can be very confusing for a first timer
[04:23] <bratman> where are dappers repositories ?
[04:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about source.list - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:23] <ubotu> Package/file source.list does not exist in edgy
[04:23] <alphab8> I can't seem to get my ubutu to access the internet
[04:23] <Foon1> Ademan: quite
[04:23] <Ademan> Foon1: just checking :-)
[04:23] <hijjt> Arroll, aiglx is built into feisty
[04:23] <coffee-mug> is there a  package for bleeding edge gnus somewhere?
[04:23] <Foon1> but for some reason, I type i and try to enter numbers, it doesn't work
[04:23] <Ademan> Foon1: the whole concept of "insert mode" put me off for an entire month :-)
[04:23] <Foon1> but I loaded the file with sudo..
[04:23] <Foon1> heheh
[04:23] <Foon1> I jumped right in
[04:24] <dyrne> alphab8: wire or wireless?
[04:24] <alphab8> wired
[04:24] <Johno> is it hard to do dial up through ubuntu?
[04:24] <Foon1> that'll put an end to it
[04:24] <draeath> Foon1: vim is supirior :P
[04:24] <Ademan> anyways, the only things i can think of that might help would be checking numlock i guess
[04:24] <xSpecialistx> hello all
[04:24] <alphab8> its harware wired
[04:24] <bratman> !find repositories
[04:24] <alphab8> DSL
[04:24] <Ademan> draeath: i'm pretty sure in ubuntu vi is just a symlink to vim :-)
[04:24] <Foon1> emacs ftw! (heh) I don't use it much
[04:24] <ubotu> File repositories found in r-base-core, ubuntu-docs
[04:24] <Foon1> no no, Microsoft Word is best
[04:24] <bratman> !find source
[04:24] <hijjt> Foon1, ohh man noone likes nano
[04:24] <ubotu> Found: bf-utf-source, gcc-4.1-source, kdepim-kresources, libgtksourceview-common, libgtksourceview-dev (and 129 others)
[04:24] <dyrne> alphab8: open a terminal and type 'cat /etc/iftab' what interfaces show up eth0 ? eth1?
[04:24] <Arroll> hijjt: but im running Edgy
[04:24] <Foon1> edit the snot out of those text files
[04:24] <bratman> !find source.list
[04:25] <ubotu> Package/file source.list does not exist in edgy
[04:25] <xSpecialistx> i have problem with my 3d video card, is ATI  RADEON XpRESS 1100,
[04:25] <draeath> I need to get off my butt and add "set nowrap" in my .vimrc
[04:25] <hijjt> Arroll, xgl is a different Xserver, aiglx is the xorg way of doing it
[04:25] <Foon1> hijjt: heheh
[04:25] <happy_nic> ubuntu vi uses some package called vi-minimal by default. it's awfully limited
[04:25] <Jordan_U_> Arroll, And XGl is buggy and generally considered a hack
[04:25] <bratman> !bratman source.list
[04:26] <matthew1429> so the alternate install cd (600 megabytes) should help me get around my x.org crashes when installing ubuntu on my dell inspiron 9400/e1705?
[04:26] <Foon1> happy_nic: built in lack of support for typing numbers?
[04:26] <happy_nic> no wait, that's vim-tiny
[04:26] <draeath> Am I the only one who thinks grub should be automatically set up with an md5-ed password on install?
[04:26] <hijjt> Arroll, I recommend going with aiglx
[04:26] <Arroll> Jordan_U_: ok so AIGLX is the way i want to go then right
[04:26] <alphab8> ok
[04:26] <bratman> !find upgrade from dapper to edgy
[04:26] <ubotu> Found: unattended-upgrades, upgrade-system, update-notifier
[04:26] <hijjt> Arroll, i think it's long term support is going to be better
[04:26] <Zaiden> Ademan: i was able to get to the command prompt and did the sudo nano command for xorg.conf, but there was nothing written in the file.
[04:26] <Jordan_U_> Arroll, Yup
[04:26] <alphab8> I typed it in and it doen't say either
[04:26] <Arroll> hijjt: and repo drivers will be suffecient for the AIGLX then?
[04:27] <dyrne> alphab8: try 'ifconfig -a'
[04:27] <happy_nic> Foon1: I can't remember, I got so frustrated using it, i immediately install a proper vim on every fresh install now.
[04:27] <Jordan_U_> Zaiden, Did you get the path correct?
[04:27] <Foon1> hehe
[04:27] <hijjt> Arroll, yeah, it seemed to run well on my brothers ati mobility m1 on an 1800+ with ati repo drivers
[04:27] <alphab8> says " ok
[04:27] <Zaiden> Jordan: I did. sudo nano /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[04:27] <Jordan_U_> Zaiden, /etc/X11   ( capital "X" ) /xorg.conf
[04:27] <alphab8> I typyed in ifconfig
[04:28] <alphab8> and it give me eth0
[04:28] <Arroll> hijjt: but i am running an nvidia card.   7600 GS
[04:28] <Shaba1> !ubunto alternate cd
[04:28] <Ademan> Zaiden: everything is case sensitive, X is different than x
[04:28] <alphab8> is there something specific i should be looking at?
[04:28] <bratman> !find dapper
[04:28] <Ademan> kind of disorienting for windows converts, but it makes sense
[04:28] <Zaiden> Oh...
[04:28] <ubotu> File dapper found in debootstrap
[04:28] <Zaiden> I feel sily
[04:28] <Zaiden> silly*
[04:28] <Ademan> Zaiden: no worries, i'm a regular here, it happens all the time
[04:28] <hijjt> Arrol, I would imagine that it would work well enough
[04:29] <Zaiden> Will there be an option on the screen that tells me how to save?
[04:29] <dyrne> alphab8: ok so first lets try to obtain an address via dhcp.  'sudo ifconfig eth0 up' to bring the interface up then 'dhclient eth0' does it assign an ip or just keep waiting for an offer
[04:29] <arpegius> anyone here get coldfusion installed on their ubuntu box?
[04:29] <bratman> where is the file to change the mentioned dapper to edgy for upgrade ?
[04:29] <Jordan_U_> Zaiden, Just hit ctrl+x to quit and it will ask you if you want to save before quitting
[04:29] <jesusphreak> how do I check my kernel version?
[04:29] <arpegius> i'm pulling an error: /tmp/install.dir.5615/Linux/resource/jre/bin/java: not found
[04:29] <hijjt> jesusphreak, uname -a
[04:29] <Foon1> I've updated xorg.conf
[04:29] <Foon1> now what?
[04:30] <Zaiden> Ok. Thank you, and be right back again
[04:30] <hijjt> Foon1, restart the xserver
[04:30] <Foon1> how?
[04:30] <fatlip> heyo
[04:30] <hijjt> Foon1, the save way?
[04:30] <fatlip> superquick question
[04:30] <Foon1> which is..?
[04:30] <fatlip> how do i claim ownership over an entire partition?
[04:30] <hijjt> Foon1, logout
[04:30] <jesusphreak> okay, so how do I get my machine to use an older kernel?
[04:30] <alphab8> I type  'sudo ifconfig eth0" and it displays nothing
[04:30] <Foon1> oh, ok
[04:30] <Foon1> brb then
[04:30] <MajorPayne> I have a button that launches sudo -i in a terminal to get a super user terminal.  Is there a better way to do that, maybe something that lets me launch GUI applications as root if it is safe to do so?
[04:30] <alphab8> I type  'sudo ifconfig eth0" and it displays nothing
[04:30] <hijjt> Foon1, and hit ctrl alt backspace at the login screen
[04:31] <dyrne> alphab8: 'sudo ifconfig eth0 up'
[04:31] <Foon1> login screen?
[04:31] <bratman> what is the name of the repositories file that i change the dapper refernces to , to edgy for upgrade ?
[04:31] <dyrne> alphab8: it wont display anything
[04:31] <Foon1> theoretically, it should be the bash prompt login
[04:31] <dyrne> alphab8: after that 'dhclient eth0'
[04:31] <echoes> hi
[04:31] <hijjt> Foon1, fair enough, then just logout
[04:31] <Foon1> because I didn't install anything beyond fluxbox and its prerequisits
[04:31] <dyrne> alphab8: soory use sudo like 'sudo dhclient eth0'
[04:31] <Foon1> ok
[04:31] <Jordan_U> bratman, Don't upgrade like that!
[04:31] <hijjt> Foon1, or hit ctrl alt backspace
[04:31] <Foon1> brb
[04:32] <Foon1> now?
[04:32] <hijjt> Foon1, exit fluxbox
[04:32] <Foon1> ok
[04:32] <laptop> Which is better KDE or GNOME?
[04:32] <Jordan_U> bratman, It will likely break your system if you do!
[04:32] <laptop> for Ubunut?
[04:32] <laptop> Ubuntu?
[04:32] <Foon1> brb :)
[04:32] <hijjt> laptop, both
[04:32] <alphab8> ok
[04:32] <bratman> nope i've done it before
[04:32] <KromiX> wow
[04:32] <bratman> just forgot hte name of it
[04:32] <Foon1> I'll still be here as Foon, heh,...but anyway, brb
[04:32] <Shaba1> OK this time the install icon did not even show up
[04:32] <alphab8> i tyed them both
[04:32] <KromiX> My 3 days with Ubuntu and....... what have i been doing on Windows, I love you guys.
[04:32] <alphab8> *typed
[04:32] <laptop> So did I, i encountered more problems with KDE
[04:32] <dyrne> laptop: kde is better as far as technically but i guess gnome for idealistic reasons
[04:32] <KromiX> My First* 3 days
[04:33] <ardchoille> MajorPayne: use gksudo. gksudo nautilus
[04:33] <Jordan_U> bratman, NO, DO NOT DO IT ( seriously, this is a known problem, trust me )
[04:33] <laptop> technically?
[04:33] <buyandcry> by
[04:33] <Shaba1> laptop
[04:33] <bratman> well how else do i keep my stuff with all these updates?
[04:33] <arpegius> what package resolves libc.so.6 not foudns?
[04:33] <arpegius> *founds
[04:33] <bratman> i can't burn a new cd everytime there is somethign new
[04:33] <g0su> Hello, good night. Any body know why in nvidia driver the scaled is disable? http://img371.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pantallazonvidiaxserverud9.jpg
[04:33] <buyandcry> hi
[04:33] <Shaba1> do you know if ubuntu can be installed on a 256 mb laptop
[04:33] <crdlb> !upgrade| bratman
[04:33] <ubotu> bratman: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:34] <Shaba1> because I am having serious problems
[04:34] <laptop> Nope
[04:34] <alphab8> thee's nothing displaying?
[04:34] <laptop> takes more space than that
[04:34] <dyrne> Shaba1: xubuntu will run fine on 256mb ram
[04:34] <hijjt> laptoplaptop, I think kde runs quicker, and lets you access more features and customization
[04:34] <Jordan_U> bratman, You don't need to
[04:34] <ardchoille> bratman: If you upgrade like that, you'll just end up re-installing Ubuntu
[04:34] <buyandcry> http://rafb.net/p/AnxEP921.html
[04:34] <ardchoille> !upgrade
[04:34] <laptop> hrm
[04:34] <hijjt> laptop, gnome is more simplistic

[04:40] <Foon> Foon: how so?!
[04:40] <alphab8> Ubuntu 6.06
[04:40] <tritium> admin__: cd ~/Desktop
[04:40] <Frog292> wow... i looked for that for so long
[04:40] <Frog292> thanks if it works
[04:40] <laptop> If I dont like GNOME or KDE what else is there?
[04:40] <Foon> err, hijjt
[04:40] <alphab8> I should also mention....I installed the ethernet card after I installed Ubuntu
[04:40] <Shaba1> so what is the differnce between the two?
[04:41] <hijjt> Foon, goodness, well those are the values the manufacturer gives for it
[04:41] <ddonky> crdlb - thanks
[04:41] <dyrne> laptop: xubuntu is xfce  its a full desktop environment without the bloat. uses gtk like gnome
[04:41] <alphab8> so would that be a problem?
[04:41] <ardchoille> laptop: There are quite a number: http://xwinman.org/
[04:41] <admin__> ok, thanks. What is the "~" for?
[04:41] <Foon> :S
[04:41] <ardchoille> admin__: ~ means your $HOME
[04:41] <dyrne> laptop: i mean xfce itself isnt a de but.. you understand
[04:41] <MrXclusiv> my problem shouldnt exist - i am booting with the livecd, and it wont web browse, yet from terminal it pings localhost and pings google and pings winamp, yet firefox will not open a webpage
[04:41] <tritium> precisely
[04:41] <Foon> any specific depth or resolution along with those?
[04:41] <admin__> ok
[04:41] <alphab8> well?
[04:41] <hijjt> Foon, you can remove the horizsync and vertrefresh lines and get it to work on the other monitor again Max Resolution:    	    1024 x 768
[04:42] <hijjt> is the only thing it gives
[04:42] <kitche> dyrne: don't know but last tiem I checked xfce is a de
[04:42] <Foon> yea

[04:42] <kitche> ardchoille: I know was telling dyrne that it was one :)
[04:42] <tritium> ddonky: please don't advertise here
[04:42] <Foon> what about removing the references to 1024x768 to force it down to 800x600, say?
[04:42] <hijjt> Foon, and i am certain the g200 can handle that, I had one,,,
[04:42] <ant-> !modem | Johno
[04:42] <ddonky> sorry
[04:43] <Foon> yeah
[04:43] <ubotu> Johno: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[04:43] <hijjt> Foon, what does it look like on the screen?
[04:43] <MrXclusiv> my problem shouldnt exist - i am booting with the livecd, and it wont web browse, yet from terminal it pings localhost and pings google and pings winamp, yet firefox will not open a webpage
[04:43] <Zaiden> Changing the driver to vesa brought up a different error.
[04:43] <Foon> at depth 16 the screen only "repeats" (you know what I mean) about 4 times
[04:43] <Foon> at 8 and 24 it's just a complete mess
[04:44] <ardchoille> Foon: Did you try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:44] <alphab8> so any ideas?
[04:44] <kitche> MrXclusiv: you sure about that but anyways !ipv6 will help you out
[04:44] <Foon> nope
[04:44] <Foon> what does that do?
[04:44] <Tallen> anyone know where to get Mono Develop 0.13.1 for Ubuntu?
[04:44] <ardchoille> Foon: Recnfigures x, you can add/delete resolutions and all kinds of neat stuff.
[04:44] <tritium> Foon: you're trying to force a lower resolution?  Did you try through System->Preferences->Screen Resolution?
[04:44] <pchung83> hello everyone :)
[04:44] <hijjt> Foon, it will reconfigure your xorg.conf by the Xserver
[04:45] <Foon> tritium: lamp server, I'm not using a desktop, just a window manager
[04:45] <tritium> Foon: okay
[04:45] <alphab8> any ideas ardchollie?
[04:45] <Foon> ardchoille: oh, does it let me test out resolutions (y'know, timed like in Windows)?
[04:45] <Frog292> Hello, i'm back, following the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades did not work for upgrading ubuntu... it still says it cant find freecontrib
[04:45] <hijjt> Foon, fair enough, you can delete the 1024x768 at the begining of the lines
[04:45] <hijjt> Foon, it will default to the next highest one then
[04:45] <Foon> yah
[04:45] <Foon> k
[04:46] <linxeh> whats a good graphical ftp client ?
[04:46] <ardchoille> alphab8: About what?
[04:46] <pchung83> can anyone direct to a newbie guide to ubuntu?
[04:46] <Foon> I know it should work for 1024x768 as well, it worked for me for years too (and with some headaching, under Fedora Core 4 as well)
[04:46] <alphab8> I'm running Ubutu 6.06 fresh install
[04:46] <linxeh> pchung83: www.ubuntuguide.org - or the one on the ubuntu.com wiki
[04:46] <ant-> pchung83 : the help file that comes with it.
[04:46] <alphab8> and I can't connect to the internet
[04:46] <pchung83> thanks
[04:46] <Foon> but meh, I figure, a low resolution is better than no resolution, for starters
[04:46] <pchung83> where is the help file that comes with it?
[04:46] <alphab8> Its ahrware and its wired DSL
[04:46] <Johno> ant: That didnot answer all of my questions
[04:47] <tritium> pchung83: System->Help and Support
[04:47] <ant-> Johno : oh
[04:47] <pchung83> alright thanks tritium
[04:47] <Foon> I'll switch the keyboard over to the other computer and test out the reconfigure thing, brb
[04:47] <ardchoille> alphab8: I don't have any idea, but others might
[04:47] <alphab8> *hardware
[04:47] <alphab8> o ok
[04:47] <alphab8> I'm trying to google solutions but don't know where to start
[04:47] <Frog292> Hello, i'm back, following the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades did not work for upgrading ubuntu... it still says it cant find freecontrib
[04:47] <alphab8> cuz i'm totally new to Ubuntu
[04:48] <dan_y> it's possbile to play some games like Quake3 with an onboard graphic card?
[04:48] <MrXclusiv> my problem shouldnt exist - i am booting with the livecd, and it wont web browse, yet from terminal it pings localhost and pings google and pings winamp, yet firefox will not open a webpage
[04:48] <tritium> Frog292: freecontrib?  That's not mentioned in the upgrade instructions.
[04:49] <Frog292> im running the ditribution ulgrade.. and it gets stuck at fetching file 39 of39 and evnetually says it cant connet to freecontrib
[04:49] <ardchoille> Frog292: I told yo that freecontrib doesn't have an Ubuntu repo right now.
[04:49] <Frog292> but i'm following the official instructions...
[04:49] <ardchoille> Frog292: They are in the process of turning it over to new management, but it doesn't work right now.
[04:50] <Frog292> and they keep on leading my to the same distribution upgrade, and that says it can't
[04:50] <tritium> Frog292: freecontrib.org repositories are not official.
[04:50] <happy_nic> Frog292: this probably isn't what you want to hear, but my suggestion is to always do a clean install. I keep a separate partition with all my important media and documents and copies of some configuration files. This way I can always just fry the core os partition whenever I need.
[04:50] <ardchoille> Frog292: You might as well comment out the freecontrib repos for now.
[04:50] <Frog292> full erro: ""
[04:50] <Frog292> Failed to fetch http://packages.freecontrib.org/plf/dists/dapper/Release.gpg Could not connect to packages.freecontrib.org:80 (88.191.33.6), connection timed out
[04:50] <ardchoille> Frog292: Do you have me on ignore?
[04:51] <Frog292> i know
[04:51] <tritium> Frog292: again, easyubuntu repos are not official.  Further, they ar enow using medibuntu repos.  See their website.  This is the source of your problem.
[04:51] <Frog292> it's just that i'm new and i don't know how to comment it out
[04:51] <Frog292> but...but... all i'm trying to do is upgrade, nothing else
[04:51] <Arroll> ok i have now just installed the nvidia-glx drivers from the repositories.    is the only driver i need to run beryl with AIGLX?
[04:52] <ardchoille> Frog292: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file and I'll help with that
[04:52] <Frog292> the upgrade method on the ubuntu site leds me to this error
[04:52] <ardchoille> !paste
[04:52] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:52] <Arroll> and is that the correct driver?
[04:52] <Frog292> ok
[04:52] <tritium> Frog292: because you're using unofficial repos that currently have a problem

[04:58] <Frog292> and to not lose my boot menue's or partitions?
[04:59] <Foon> errr
[04:59] <ardchoille> Frog292: You can download the Edgy cd and install that. Then upgrade to Fesity when it comes out.
[04:59] <Ademan> Zaiden: interesting... can you tell us what/s in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:59] <Foon> dpkg-reconfigure says xserver-org doesn't exist
[04:59] <Pelo> Frog292,  clean install from cd , back up your /home folder first,  you can restore it afterwards and get all your customisation and settings back
[04:59] <Foon> but aptitude says it does
[04:59] <Foon> 0.o
[04:59] <Shrimpy_> i was wondering if any one has used ettercap on ubuntu?
[04:59] <Foon> (aptitude says its installed)
[04:59] <Frog292> so if i upgrade to 6.1 using the cd i won't lose my boot menu?

[05:01] <Pelo> Johno,  ,  ok much better info , we're getting there
[05:01] <ardchoille> Frog292: If you want to preserve your boot menu, copy the /boot/grub/menu.lst file to a usb key or burn it to cd or something, it's really easy to restore it later.
[05:01] <Johno> Pelo: what?
[05:01] <Frog292> if i install 6.10 from the cd and back up my home dir, will i lose my GRUB settings?
[05:02] <Frog292> oh
[05:02] <MrXclusiv> thankyou whoever gave me answer
[05:02] <MrXclusiv> :)
[05:02] <tritium> Frog292: what's so special about your grub settings?
[05:02] <Frog292> dual boot
[05:02] <Pelo> Johno,  it would have help if you had said you needed to setup a dial up connection to start with,  give me a minue to find the instructions
[05:02] <ardchoille> Frog292: Copy that file to be in with the files you are backing up.
[05:02] <kitche> Frog292: grub has nothing to do with your home dir all settings for that is kept in /boot
[05:02] <tritium> Frog292: that's easily setup again
[05:02] <Frog292> ok - i just rembmer it was a pain somehow
[05:02] <Johno> Pelo: ok

[05:05] <wyld> In the /boot/grub/menu.lst, is there a reason that the root for every boot option is (hd0,6)? If i wanted to add another option to the boot menu, would the 'root' option _have_ to be (hd0,6)?
[05:05] <Ademan> Mugwump09: do you have a new computer?

[05:08] <Mugwump09> Ademan: just won't run

[05:12] <kuma> hi, how can i configure the mounting system so any user can mount devices?
[05:12] <Pelo> Johno, I think this might help  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=388932&highlight=connecting+dialup
[05:12] <neuro_damage> so i am running the isntallation cd and then a laptop is going black

[05:12] <eisma> how do i support rar files?
[05:12] <neuro_damage> how do I fix this?
[05:12] <neuro_damage> anyone?
[05:12] <Ademan> Mugwump09: hrm could you make a paste of /var/log/syslog ?
[05:12] <Frog292> ah=ha i think catid's command wprked, thanks
[05:13] <kitche> !rar | eisma
[05:13] <ubotu> eisma: 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
[05:13] <Ademan> or at least check it out and see if there's some failure going on?
[05:13] <Mugwump09> Ademan: I don't know what that means
[05:13] <Frog292> nooooooooooooooo
[05:13] <bigdawg72988> I did everything on the ubuntu support page to install the fglrx driver for my ATI graphics card.  But in my xorg.conf file says http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12097/  I am confused as to what driver is actually installed?
[05:13] <Ademan> Mugwump09: /var/log/syslog is a file
[05:13] <Frog292> well, nm, i'm just going to go reinstall
[05:13] <Frog292> no need to get it workign if im reinstalling
[05:13] <Ademan> bigdawg72988: you have to modify your xorg.conf yourself (or use the ati xorg configuration utility)
[05:13] <Mugwump09> Ademan: okay, I think I understand, how do I get to it?
[05:14] <wyld> ***quick question here: what does initrd mean in /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[05:14] <Ademan> Mugwump09: what i'd do, is at the login screen, hit ctrl+alt+f1, there you can log in to a text console
[05:14] <kitche> bigdawg72988: they both are fglrx is the ati driver the ati driver is the open source wrapper for all the open source radeon drivers
[05:14] <kitche> !initrd | wyld
[05:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about initrd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:14] <kuma> hi, how can i configure the mounting system so any user can mount devices?
[05:14] <Ademan> Mugwump09: from there just type "nano /var/log/syslog"
[05:14] <bigdawg72988> ok
[05:14] <kitche> wyld: it's needed to boot
[05:14] <Mugwump09> Ademan: is that it?
[05:14] <wyld> kitche: thanks
[05:14] <Frog292> so let me ask to make sure - is there a page that says how to reinstall ubuntu with 6.10?
[05:14] <fuNk> Someone convince me - seriously, that linux aint too much of an annoyance to actually run the OS. Cause, i never ran linux, but i keep hearing over the years that performance-wise, it beats winblows anytime, but i dont want to RTFM for days just to install a game or video card
[05:15] <kitche> wyld: you don't need one but ubuntu uses one to keep the kernel relatively small really
[05:15] <catid> fuNk: but that's part of the *fun*
[05:15] <fuNk> Ah
[05:15] <Ademan> fuNk: it's either hit or mis, my install worked flawlessly out of the box, no configuration required
[05:15] <pkh> I've got a problem:  my date is wrong on my system.  but I can't chnage it because 'sudo date xxxxx' won't work because sudo complains that the date is in the future.....   is there a way to sort this?
[05:15] <Ademan> but for instance, Mugwump09 is having one hell of a time getting it to work
[05:15] <fuNk> Ademan: and is it hard to run, and install files and what not?
[05:15] <Mugwump09> yes I am
[05:15] <Ademan> fuNk: installing things is a breeze
[05:16] <kitche> fuNk: in ubuntu no in linux yes
[05:16] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:16] <wyld> kitche: do you know how i would add a suse option on hda7 that was not found by ubuntu, but i know it's there?
[05:16] <fuNk> isnt Ubuntu just another version of linux, like mandrake or redhat
[05:16] <fuNk> ?
[05:16] <fuNk> <- linux noob
[05:16] <catid> yes another "distribution"
[05:16] <Ademan> fuNk: yes, but each one brings certain things to the table
[05:16] <wyld> fuNk: yeah
[05:16] <happy_nic> fuNk: installing most things is easier than in windows. but some things can be 100 times more painful. namely things like video card drivers
[05:16] <catid> fuNk: it will work differently than Windows and MacOS, sometimes better sometimes worse
[05:16] <Ademan> Mugwump09: so once you do that, you should be able to view the contents of that file
[05:16] <fuNk> and apparently Ubuntu is the most user friendly linux OS as of yet
[05:16] <RamiKassab> gentlemen, I've been searching all over google to try to figure out how to accurately check how much video memory my integrated graphics card is using, the 'free' command reports 1 gig total memory (accurate) but shouldn't it be less since some of it is shared?
[05:17] <fuNk> see, something as simple as checking his vid memory card
[05:17] <fuNk> seems a pain
[05:17] <Toma-> fuNk: its the most popular so youll get plenty of help and packages for it
[05:17] <fuNk> and a lot of other users seem to have that pain
[05:17] <fuNk> its whats keeping me from getting linux
[05:17] <Mugwump09> Ademan: thank you, I will try it
[05:17] <kitche> wyld: copy the entry and edit it paste it toward the bottom root would be (hd0,x where x is hte partition that suse is on 0=first partition 1=second partition
[05:17] <Toma-> !envy > fuNk
[05:17] <catid> it's easier for me to debug problems with my video card than a window's user..  about the same difficulty of upgrading.. installation was a pain the first time
[05:18] <Ademan> fuNk: you hear about users having trouble because no one spam's message boards with "omg linux worked no problem please help me!!!"
[05:18] <kuma> fuNk, linux is getting better everyday, you'll find that things that were a pain in the past somebody has make them easier than windows
[05:18] <Johno> pelo: it says I can just type pon but that didn't work
[05:18] <happy_nic> fuNk: I fought my computer for days trying to get a proper dual head support. I finally ended up with a buggy solution.
[05:18] <GoGetta> how do you do a full page zoom in firefox? It is already built in opera, what extension do i need for firefox?
[05:18] <wyld> kitche: is the first partition on the disk, or the way linux numbers them?
[05:18] <fuNk> Ademan: true but then again, windows doesnt need a 900 user channel on IRC for support, since everything is pretty much self explanatory. Whereas in linux you MUST have some knowledge
[05:18] <catid> nvidia support for linux is great
[05:18] <Frog292> my personal views on linux - installing drivers and some programs needs to be easier, and dual booting needs to be a breeze
[05:19] <kitche> wyld: first partition ont he disk is 0 for x it's how grub numbers them
[05:19] <GoGetta> catid: i agree
[05:19] <Frog292> and each persons computer shouldn't have 2-3 individual problems.... then i could ocnvince everyone to get linux
[05:19] <Ademan> fuNk: i disagree, instead dell, hp, compaq all have 1-800 numbers to call and wait 45 minutes to talk to a tech support person in india
[05:19] <fuNk> True.
[05:19] <catid> well if you use anything for a while it seems easy..  windows can be just as hard to use the first time..
[05:19] <kuma> Ademan: true that

[05:20] <Frog292> oh, and i think linux needs read WRITE support of ntfs
[05:20] <Toma-> fuNk: right. well next time you instyall ubuntu, read the user guide provided with it and youll know all there is to know :)
[05:20] <happytron> catid: its not that great... who knows when the black windows bug will be fixed...
[05:21] <Ademan> fuNk: but like i said, linux is either hit or miss, it can support EVERYTHING out of the box, without requiring you to do anything at all, or you could be stuck without video and internet :-)
[05:21] <catid> happytron: what black windows bug?
[05:21] <Foon> grumble
[05:21] <catid> happytron: with compositing?
[05:21] <psyber> hey guys... can anyone help me with a bash question?
[05:21] <Ademan> fuNk: that's why they have LiveCD's so that you can test and see what will happen, without risking your computer
[05:21] <wyld> kitche: but my partitions are  numbered 1,5,6,7
[05:21] <Toma-> Smaug: you pasted in -offtopic, now you paste in here? dont you learn???
[05:21] <fuNk> Toma-: then why is is that its such a pain to install a simple video card or like the gentlemen above me earlier, who googled for hours just to know how to check his vid ram
[05:21] <wyld> kitche: i think
[05:21] <alekz> hi i have a problem with firestarter, i have allowed icmp traceroute packets, but i cant use traceroute, i just can use it with firestarter dissabled, can someone help me ?
[05:21] <happytron> with nvidia drivers, if you have too many windows open at once... some of them become black
[05:21] <Foon> I've tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:21] <Foon> I can now reconfigure the screen settings and junk
[05:21] <happytron> not sure exactly what the problem is, graphics memory isn't being managed correctly... i guess
[05:21] <Foon> but it STILL doesn't work
[05:21] <catid> happytron: ah yeah you can fix that by switching to a software rendering path "copy"
[05:21] <Ademan> happytron: that's a bug in the nvidia drivers, they were SUPPOSED to fix that 2 driver versions ago
[05:21] <Toma-> fuNk: because you and him didnt read the guide.
[05:21] <wyld> fuNk: it's linux, live with it ;-)
[05:21] <Foon> I still haven't found a working combination of settings :(
[05:21] <GoGetta> www.ubuntuguide.org for installing vid card drivers
[05:21] <Foon> all of which should work
[05:21] <fuNk> Toma-: lol
[05:22] <kitche> wyld: yes grub calls partitons this 0= first partition on the disk 1=2nd partition and so on it's the number that came before your partition
[05:22] <happytron> yeah, just saying nvidia support isn't that great =] 
[05:22] <happy_nic> psyber: just ask your question
[05:22] <Foon> hijjt: ?
[05:22] <kitche> wyld: grub numbers them different then the linux kernel does
[05:22] <wyld> kitche: ok, i'll try that
[05:22] <dkbg> #ubuntu-effects
[05:22] <wyld> kitche: thanks
[05:22] <kuma> happytron: but apps like automatix make's it easier to use, right?=
[05:22] <Foon> GoGetta: I'm beyond that I think, but thanks
 fuNk: it's linux, live with it ;-)
[05:22] <fuNk> * viator has joined #ubuntu
[05:22] <fuNk> my point exactly
[05:22] <fuNk> :P
[05:22] <Toma-> fuNk: heck, you can even search the guide for "video drivers" and install it within 30 seconds of reading it
[05:22] <Ademan> fuNk: plus, the problem with video card drivers is really the video card vendors themselves, NVIDIA and ATI make the video card installers, they're the ones that made them such a pain in the ass
[05:22] <Frog292> Ok - i'm haveing some problems copying my home directory, i've mounted windows NTFS on this computer, and now i'm copying the home directory and it gives me many errors saying it can't copy... a lot of those errors are files that are on my windows drive....
[05:22] <happytron> ?, what is automatix?
[05:22] <Frog292> !automatix
[05:22] <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
[05:22] <Ademan> happytron: a bad idea
[05:22] <fuNk> Ademan; why are there no problems with them on windows machine then
[05:22] <GoGetta> happytron: automated installer for a bunch of programs
[05:23] <RamiKassab> gentlemen, I've been searching all over google to try to figure out how to accurately check how much video memory my integrated graphics card is using, the 'free' command reports 1 gig total memory (accurate) but shouldn't it be less since some of it is shared?
[05:23] <kitche> !ntfs | Frog292
[05:23] <fuNk> or seldom, compared to linux
[05:23] <ubotu> Frog292: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:23] <Ademan> fuNk: NVIDIA and ATI care more about windows
[05:23] <fuNk> Ademan: money
[05:23] <fuNk> heh
[05:23] <Foon> hijjt: oi?
[05:23] <viator> how do i make it so that fspot is automatically opened when i hook up my camera
[05:23] <Frog292> ok.... but i still can't copy my home directory
[05:23] <GoGetta> ademan: only becuase windows has 90 percent of the market(estimate)
[05:23] <fuNk> sortof like what mark rein did with ut2k3
[05:23] <psyber> ok so I am trying to add my /bin direcory to my path variable for some shell scrips.  The code in my .bash_profile claims that it adds the /bin directory to the $PATH yet I cannot run my scrips outside of the /bin directory any thoughts?
[05:23] <kitche> happytron: automatix is a program that ubuntu does support and should not be suggested in this channel :)
[05:23] <atoponce> Heartsbane: ping
[05:23] <kitche> happytron: does/doesn't*
[05:23] <viator> the graphical preferred applications tool is USELESS
[05:23] <happytron> hmm, well i often use the synaptics manager... which seems to work well
[05:23] <Ademan> fuNk: well NVIDIA is far better with linux than ATi
[05:23] <kuma> sorry, it worked for me though
[05:24] <Ademan> NVIDIA drivers are relatively easy
[05:24] <happy_nic> psyber: odd, what does "echo $PATH" tell you?
[05:24] <wyld> kitche: what about the root=/dev/sda7 that happens to be on every entry in my menu.lst?
[05:24] <catid> RamiKassab: are you talking about the memory available to your system or to the graphics card?  graphics cards often have RAM just for their own uses (storing textures/pictures)
[05:24] <Toma-> fuNk: its all about licensing. windows is a multi-billion dollar OS and ubuntu is totally free. no-ones going to shell out huge amounts to let ubuntu have proprietry licenses for mp3 and video drivers and codecs.
[05:24] <kitche> wyld: that is what your / is for suse root=/dev/sdX
[05:24] <wyld> kitche: oh
[05:25] <psyber> it does not look like it works
[05:25] <psyber> /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games
[05:25] <fuNk> they should make linux conferences, where the public is allowed to attend, and they make us try to install linux on machines and give it a test drive
[05:25] <Toma-> fuNk: btw, this is a support channel... lets continue in #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[05:25] <RamiKassab> catid: I was under the impression that an integrated graphics card like the Intel ones used shared memory from the installed system ram
[05:25] <fuNk> im sure they would get a lot of windows users
[05:25] <Frog292> my poblem is not that i want to mount windows, its that i have and now i can't copy my home directory
[05:25] <RamiKassab> catid: correct me if I am wrong
[05:25] <fuNk> Toma- : ok
[05:25] <RamiKassab> catid: I know standalone cards have their own memory
[05:25] <kuma> hi, how can i configure the mounting system so any user can mount devices?
[05:25] <Coldopm> hello, can anyone help me? when I try to install Edgy on my notebook, it gives me an x-server error due to my grafix card driver....it shuts down my x-serve and goes to a non gui command, how can I install it from this screen?
[05:25] <happy_nic> psyber: I see /bin in the $PATH you pasted...
[05:26] <viator> any ideas??
[05:26] <wyld> kitche: hokay! here it goes
[05:26] <psyber> but then why wont my scripts run outside the /bin directory?
[05:26] <happy_nic> psyber: in fact you wouldn't even be able to "ls" if /bin wasn't in your path
[05:27] <psyber> im looking for the bin directory in my home folder
[05:27] <happy_nic> psyber: psyber: oh you mean "~/bin"
[05:27] <psyber> lol yeah....
[05:27] <psyber> sorry
[05:27] <wyld> kitche: dang, it says error 15: file not found
[05:27] <Mugwump09> Ademan: What kind of things am I looking for in the syslog?
[05:27] <slylyias> I just switched to ubuntu, I'm using KVirc, why is it when I search for a channel list if I put in any search criteria (such as: *ubuntu* ) I get no results?
[05:27] <Ademan> errors i guess, i couldn't tell you exactly, but if it's freezing, i'd bet it's near the end of the log
[05:27] <Mugwump09> Ademan: I found an error that said "no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects"
[05:28] <Smaug> catid: excuse my dumbness but how exactly do i get to the exstention(module)?
[05:28] <kitche> wyld: well you have hte tools to do it now just have ot figure out what / and kernel= is set to for suse
[05:28] <happy_nic> psyber: did you just make that directory? you might have to logout and log back into your shell. then .bash_profile will run and test to see if there is a ~/bin directory
[05:28] <Ademan> Mugwump09: unfortunately i'm not too good with the low level errors like that, your best bet in my opinion is googling the errors you have (sorry i can't be of more help)
[05:28] <catid> Smaug: search for Section "Extensions"
[05:28] <catid> Smaug: at the load line to that list
[05:28] <tehquickness> I am writing a bash script to copy drivers and install specific printers, is there a way to do a "dry run" run of the script to just see what output it will give?
[05:29] <Mugwump09> Ademan: alright, well atleast I'm making some progress, thank you
[05:29] <alucard> what processor family does the core 2 duo fit under for kernel config (recompiling kernel)

[05:35] <wyld> admin_: cry
[05:35] <deafboy> i installed fglrx but im still not getting acceleration, any ideas?
[05:35] <shirish> the router modem is 192.168.1.1

[05:35] <Frog29> Ok - if im doing a reinstall of ubuntu from 6.06 to 6.1 would i use the normal or alternate Cd?
[05:36] <tritium> deafboy: did you fully follow the instructions?
[05:36] <Mirth> Quick question
[05:36] <maly> can you tell me how to install   NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9755-pkg1.run i already looked at ubuntu but it does not work
[05:36] <shirish> the DNS is specified in the router itself
[05:36] <kitche> !ipv6 | shirish
[05:36] <ubotu> shirish: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[05:36] <Mirth> How do I delete a file that's in filesystem, using the terminal?
[05:36] <deafboy> tritium: yep installed all the required packages, but the thing is the newest fglrx installs itself
[05:36] <kitche> Frog29: alternate
[05:36] <Frog29> k
[05:36] <admin__> shirish: can you ping an outside server?
[05:36] <kitche> Mirth: rm you might have ot use sudo depending where the file is
[05:37] <tritium> !ati > deafboy
[05:37] <Coldopm> sudo apt-get remove "filename" ...Mirth
[05:37] <Frog29> and should iresinstall from ubunto or start u pteh CD? (i've isntalled the bas program, automatix)
[05:37] <Mirth> Yeah, I have to use sudo for this
[05:37] <Mirth> I'll try that coldopm, thanks
[05:37] <shirish> I don't think so, I can try, but how do I make sure tht I turn off the Sis NIC & only the Realtek NIC is up?
[05:37] <admin__> I can't start Firefox.
[05:37] <Coldopm> so it is your routers firewall blocking the connection Shirsh?
[05:38] <psyber> well thanks happy_nic it works now
[05:38] <Coldopm> Log into your router, allow all traffi and see if that changes it....Shirsh
[05:38] <patattach> So I am using fiesty with an ATI card, has anyone gotten this to work?
[05:38] <Coldopm> traffic*
[05:38] <psyber> the rc file worked that is
[05:38] <shirish> nope there is a firewall on the router, but its always disabled, I used software-based firewall
[05:38] <Mirth> Is there a way to open the File Manager in sudo mode?
[05:38] <Mirth> So I don't have to use terminal?
[05:38] <deafboy> tritium: i've followed that same how-to several times (gotta do it everytime the kernel updates) but this is the only time it didn't work

[05:39] <kuma> hi, where can i find the udev file?

[05:39] <Coldopm> OK Can anyone try and help me with a x serv issue when trying to install Edgy on my notebook?
[05:39] <tritium> deafboy: not unless you failed to retreive linux-restricted-modules when you updated
[05:41] <deafboy> tritium: still shows up mesa, but i do have the linux-restricted intstalled for my kernel
[05:41] <Coldopm> OK how do I boot Edgy from CD from the command prompt?

[05:41] <mbdl> ubotu, read and write ntfs
[05:42] <gireesh> why isnt software update manager letting me select linux-restricted-modules package even though it lists a new one available?
[05:42] <Heywood> Hey, can anyone point me in the right direction for connecting to a WLAN using Ubuntu? Sorry, I'm a noob
[05:42] <kuma> ubotu, udev

[05:42] <DM|> Gireesh u said Wlan.
[05:42] <shirish> ok guys I hope u guys are still here, would give u the results after I have tried the whole IPv6 thing :)
[05:42] <kuma> thx
[05:42] <Mirth> Is there a way to open the File Manager in sudo mode?
[05:42] <Fujitsu> mbdl: What are you trying to do?
[05:42] <Heywood> DM|: no, I said WLAN
[05:42] <Fujitsu> Mirth: sudo nautilus, perhaps.
[05:42] <kuma> billy: thx
[05:43] <deafboy> tritium: the thing is with the newest fglrx, i can't build a debian package
[05:43] <billy> Mirth:  why you want to do that?
[05:43] <Fujitsu> !wifi | Heywood
[05:43] <ubotu> Heywood: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:43] <deafboy> tritium: it just installs itself
[05:43] <mjrosenb> Quick question: how do I prevent a module from getting loaded? ati is getting very sad because the default kernel agp driver is getting loaded.
[05:43] <DM|> heywood woops
[05:43] <gireesh> heh DM| maybe you were replying to Heywood
[05:43] <billy> kuma: no problem.  i'd rather teach people how to help themselves than just tell them what to do.
[05:43] <DM|> gireesh aye my bad, its late
[05:43] <tritium> deafboy: oh, _that's_ why you redo it with every kernel
[05:43] <Crane> Mirth, gksu nautilus
[05:43] <DM|> heywood u have wireless working at all?
[05:43] <tritium> deafboy: just use the ubuntu packages, and save yourself the hassle
[05:43] <gireesh> although I would luv to know why linux-restrcited-modules package is not available for upgrading on my box
[05:44] <tritium> gireesh: you're in the wrong channel for feisty
[05:44] <deafboy> tritium: ok
[05:44] <Crane> Mirth, I was warned not to do sudo nautilus
[05:44] <Fujitsu> Crane: gksu nautilus
[05:44] <gireesh> tritium: darn it! I need to go to #ubuntu+1 yeah?
[05:44] <DM|> heywood ??
[05:44] <Fujitsu> gireesh: Correct.
[05:44] <mjrosenb> anyone?
[05:44] <Coldopm> mirth did that command work?
[05:44] <Crane> yep that's what I posted
[05:45] <Fujitsu> mjrosenb: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[05:45] <Fujitsu> mjrosenb: List the module in that file, it shouldn't load.
[05:45] <phem> Hi, I have just installed 7.04.  I installed ndiswrapper, ndisgtk, and my windows drivers.  I can see the wireless networks to connect to, but after I type in my password and it tries to connect for a little bit, my caps lock and scroll lock keys start flashing and the whole thing hangs.  Any thoughts?
[05:45] <mjrosenb> Fujitsu: ahh thanks
[05:45] <Mirth> Coldopm, the sudo apt-get remove didn't work
[05:46] <Mirth> But the sudo nautilis did.
[05:46] <Coldopm> why not just use synaptic?
[05:46] <Fujitsu> phem: Please ask in #ubuntu+1
[05:46] <happy_nic> phem: that's sounds like a fun kernel panic. try #ubuntu+1. i bet the ndisp stuff did it
[05:46] <mjrosenb> what a crazy crazy system
[05:46] <Frog29> is ther any way with ubuntu to downoad a file from mutiple servers with the same file and save it to the same file?
[05:46] <ararr> I'm all ready to ditch vista but i have 2 questions 1) Is it possible with patches etc to make ubuntu render fonts like XP with cleartype (be default even with sub pixel rendering i find ubuntu horrible) 2) How well will my gma950 gpu be supported? Will I be able to play back video and use aiglx at the same time?
[05:46] <Crane> Mirth, next time try gksu nautilus
[05:47] <phem> will do
[05:47] <Mirth> Is there a difference, Crane?
[05:47] <Mirth> I never understood the "gk" commands
[05:47] <Fujitsu> ararr: Not sure about the first, but the second works fine.
[05:47] <Mirth> Or learnt about them.
[05:47] <Fujitsu> Mirth: gksu is generally safer, and is graphical.
[05:47] <mjrosenb> ararr: you can do the first as well
[05:47] <happy_nic> Frog29: there are firefox addon download managers that might be able to do that.
[05:47] <Mirth> Ah.
[05:47] <kitche> Mirth: gk means graphical
[05:47] <Frog29> fro multiple sources?
[05:47] <Crane> Mirth, yes sudo nautilus can in some cases write config files to your home directory as root
[05:48] <Mirth> Ah, I see....
[05:48] <Crane> Just a bit safer with less chance of problems
[05:48] <Frog29>  itihnk i found it - metalink
[05:49] <kuma> hi, i've been googling for a while some way so any user can mount any device. I haven't find something that solves my problem, can you guys help me?
[05:49] <happy_nic> Frog29: I didn't look at them too closely, but that was the impression I got. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search?q=download+manager&status=4
[05:49] <Frog29> thanks
[05:49] <happy_nic> download them all seems like it might do something like that.
[05:50] <Toma-> How do you change the 404 error in thttpd?
[05:50] <bigcx2> hon
[05:51] <Mirth> Anyone know how I can get Ctrl+# smiley's in GAIM?
[05:51] <Dasnipa`> Mirth, no, but you might ask the actual support team in #gaim
[05:51] <Mirth> I'll try that.
[05:51] <Coldopm> I try to install Edgy on my new notebook. I get "Unknown grfix device (16)" error. it then fails to load my x-server. It goes back to the non GUI interface to: ubuntu@ubuntu How can I finish the install from this screen without my X-server loaded?
[05:52] <Crane> What are Ctrl+# smilies
[05:52] <mjrosenb> another question: does anyone know how to solve this problem:  AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib/dri/atiogl_a_dri.so: undefined
[05:52] <mjrosenb> symbol: __driCreateNewScreen_20050727)
[05:52] <NickGarvey> Coldopm, I would suggest trying the "alternate" cd
[05:53] <Coldopm> it is not the cd works fine on my desktop. It is because there are no drivers on 6.10 for my GPU
[05:53] <catid> how do i get a user list in xchat?
[05:53] <h1st0> catid: /who
[05:53] <NickGarvey> Coldopm, the alternate cd is designed to be used to install without a GUI
[05:53] <racarter_> firestarter...
[05:53] <h1st0> catid: or on the right side there should be a user list.
[05:54] <catid> there isn't =/
[05:54] <h1st0> catid: perhaps its resized so its all the way against the scroll bar.
[05:54] <Fujitsu> catid: XChat, or XChat-GNOME?
[05:54] <racarter_> firestart will not let my connections to my tomcat server go through..
[05:54] <catid> ah there it is!
[05:54] <h1st0> catid: or check around int he file menu i.e. View > User list etc...
[05:54] <catid> thanks mate, it was just hiding =)
[05:54] <h1st0> np
[05:54] <racarter_> i tried to allow inbound connections to 8180 which is what it is using
[05:54] <Coldopm> oic, sorry I thought u meant a different CD Garvey....Can this image be d/l on ubuntu site?
[05:55] <Fujitsu> Coldopm: On the same page you downloaded the Desktop CD from, you'll find the Alternate one.
[05:55] <Crane> catid,  mouse over the far right edge, sometimes it just gets shifted over
[05:55] <Coldopm> Garvey, Thank you...Will I need to know the commands to run install?
[05:56] <shinichizio> Newbie question - I've installed something with Synaptic. How do I make it show up either as a shortcut of some kind on my desktop, or in the 'applications' menu?
[05:56] <happy_nic> man, i wish everyone just stopped promoting this fancy gl desktop. "ooh look at what linux can do!!". it clearly isn't ready for mass consumption yet.
[05:57] <Coldopm> Fujitsu, Will I need to know any special commands to install?
[05:57] <KalleDK> sudo :P
[05:57] <h1st0> happy_nic: true
[05:58] <theneb> KalleDK: sudo su
[05:59] <Coldopm> One last thing..What is the basic differences between Gnome and KDE like Kubuntu?
[05:59] <KalleDK> happy_nic Well I got intel graphiccard and got no problem running it - though its not the fastest in the world, and do I try to use it on my other computer with ATI its impossible :D
[05:59] <KalleDK> theneb ??
[05:59] <NickGarvey> Coldopm, mm.. well.. theres a lot.. I'm sure a google search would show you the basic differences
[06:00] <sizzam> Coldopm, check out this page:  http://www.psychocats.net/essays/kdevsgnome
[06:00] <Coldopm> Garvey: Thank you!
[06:00] <Coldopm> Sizzam: Thank you!
[06:00] <Heywood> I just installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 6.10, and any time I click on Network, it starts this "Bug reporting" thing or something...Can anyone help me with that?
[06:01] <KalleDK> Any got a good replacemt for Dreamweaver 8 - Really love that :)
[06:01] <kuma> hi, i've been googling for a while some way so any user can mount any device. I haven't find something that solves my problem, can you guys help me?
[06:02] <SubOne> Hi. I was just doing an update and it said there was some errors. I rebooted to see if that would clear it up but then I got a kernel panic and the system wouldn't boot. I booted using a previous kernel installed on the system. How can I fix it now that I've booted. I mean can I uninstall the newer kernel and try to reinstall?
[06:02] <mjrosenb> ok, follow up to the first question: if I've blacklisted agpgart, why is it loaded?
[06:03] <Flannel> SubOne: just ignore the latest kernel, you can switch around your menu.lst so your old one is default, and then that will be overwritten next kernel update (which will probably be fixed)
[06:03] <happy_nic> KalleDK: it just annoys me when newcomers to linux come here and expect to have that functionality with a click of a checkbox. I can't blame them with all the damn hype around it.
[06:03] <Flannel> SubOne: oh, and file  abugreport
[06:03] <tritium> mjrosenb: see what else is loaded that depends on it
[06:04] <mjrosenb> it says fglrx
[06:04] <mjrosenb> but fglrx also complains that the default agp driver is being used
[06:04] <Smaug> How come when i say beryl in the terminal my toolbars disappear
[06:04] <Smaug> ?
[06:04] <SubOne> so, should i not try to reinstall the newer kernel?
[06:04] <KalleDK> happy_nic Well I came with that expextation - And well better then last time I tried Linux (2 years ago) So now I'll actually try to have it on my laptop
[06:05] <Flannel> SubOne: you could.  I doubt it's installed incorrectly, more likely that it's a compatability issue
[06:05] <SubOne> ic
[06:05] <SubOne> well it still wont complete the remaining updates
[06:05] <KalleDK> happy_nic Do you know a good replacement of Dreamweaver ??
[06:05] <Flannel> SubOne: Eh?  What do you mean?
[06:05] <Smaug> ?
[06:05] <Coldopm> Sorry, Can anyone post a link where I can grab the Alternate CD for Edgy? I can only find the main image....
[06:05] <CoLdFiRe> i have a problem
[06:05] <arpegius> do routers generally slow down samba/nfs shares?
[06:05] <bambie> guys how come my wired internet is not working on ubuntu 5.04?
[06:05] <Flannel> SubOne: Oh, you got errors during the update?  What error?
[06:05] <SubOne> there are like 38 updates left in the update manager and they wont install i get an error
[06:06] <bambie> i ran live cd and it did work fine wired/wireless.
[06:06] <CoLdFiRe> can anyone help me?
[06:06] <Flannel> bambie: Uh, Hoary isn't supported anymore.  You should upgrade.  And, actually, the upgrading will probably fix your issue.
[06:06] <SubOne> it didnt say it just said there were errors during the install or commiting would break it or something like that
[06:06] <happy_nic> KalleDK: sorry, i was ambigious there, i was actually talking about the beryl/compiz gl type stuff :)
[06:06] <mjrosenb> tritium: it says fglrx, but fglrx also gets sad when I have agpgart
[06:06] <bambie> does 5.04 doesn't support internet at all?
[06:06] <bambie> lol
[06:06] <SubOne> i guess i could install them one at a time to see which is the issue
[06:07] <Flannel> bambie: 5.04 does.  But, that's too old.  It's no longer supported by Canonical, and actually, for about six months, you haven't been getting any bugfixes.
[06:07] <bambie> oh k
[06:07] <bambie> i actually installed like two days ago.
[06:07] <bambie> alright, thanks.
[06:07] <Flannel> bambie: eh?  You sure you're on 5.04 then?
[06:07] <bambie> yeah
[06:07] <bambie> i had those cds from last year
[06:07] <bulmer> can those 2.5" hard drives (laptop) stable enuff if its just powered from usb ports? and not from a dc power bricks ?
[06:07] <bambie> or a year an a half.
[06:07] <KalleDK> happy_nic: Me to ;) Last time it was really a pain in the ass.. Now it just worked :P (on the intel)
[06:08] <Coldopm> Sorry, Can anyone post a link where I can grab the Alternate CD for Edgy? I can only find the main image....
[06:08] <Flannel> bambie: I see.  Well, download a 6.06 CD and reinstall.  You'll be a lot happier (Ubuntu has gotten a lot nicer since hoary).  Or 6.10, if you want.
[06:08] <bambie> Flannel i'm download 6.10
[06:08] <Flannel> Coldopm: you have to click the "All download location" thing on the bottom, then you get the old download thing (then "additional install options")
[06:09] <bambie> i actually downloaded earlier but i was having issues with burning an iso image which is weird.
[06:09] <h1st0> Anyone know how to check cpu tempJ/
[06:09] <Coldopm> Flannel, The other install option links, Thank you!
[06:09] <Flannel> bambie: Burn at 4x, and verify the md5 (unless you downloaded via bittorrent)
[06:10] <Flannel> Coldopm: yeah, it's a really bad UI now.  There's a few bugreports about it ;)
[06:10] <bambie> Flannel, what software do you prefer.?
[06:10] <Flannel> bambie: for what?
[06:10] <bambie> burning
[06:10] <Flannel> !burn | bambie
[06:10] <ubotu> bambie: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[06:11] <bambie> thanks.
[06:11] <frog292> hello again, what file should i back up to back up my Grub boto settings?
[06:11] <frog292> *boot
[06:12] <Flannel> frog292: /boot/grub/menu.lst  but it's probably pretty standard.
[06:12] <frog292> aha! thanks
[06:12] <frog292> i have a dual boot so it isn't :)
[06:12] <Flannel> frog292: GRUB automatically detects dualboots, but that's the file regardless
[06:12] <frog292> now.... to reinstall ubuntu from .6 to .10
[06:13] <frog292> it does?
[06:13] <Flannel> frog292: when you (re)install GRUB, yeah.
[06:13] <frog292> well i also changed it to automaticallt boot to the 6th entry
[06:13] <frog292> is there anything special that  i should know about reinstalling?
[06:14] <frog292> becasue i've backed up my files to another partition, but i'm resintallign a new version
[06:14] <Flannel> frog292: Give yourself a separate home partition, so you don't need to backup in the future
[06:14] <happy_nic> KalleDK: If you're willing to shell out some money, I've had good experiences with crossover for running ms office. Dreamweaver is officially supported too.
[06:15] <mjrosenb> so anyone have any experience with aiglx on ati cards?
[06:15] <Comrade_Sergei> does anyone know where to get the chord library for gnometab?
[06:15] <h1st0> Is there a command to see cpu temps?
[06:15] <mjrosenb> hist0 acpi -t
[06:15] <frog292> Flannel - how large should i make hte partition?
[06:16] <h1st0> mjrosenb: ty
[06:16] <mjrosenb> h1st0: that's assuming that acpi happens to be set up correctly
[06:16] <Flannel> frog292: I make the home partition whatever I have leftover, since it contains most/all of the personal (big) stuff.
[06:16] <frog292> and i have an existing partition that i want to expand, it's fat32, is it possible to do thart without losing data?
[06:16] <gatekeep> out of curisoity
[06:17] <gatekeep> if there a way
[06:17] <gatekeep> to lock out upgrades
[06:17] <gatekeep> in apt-get
[06:17] <Fujitsu> frog292: If you choose to resize it in the installer, all data will be preserved.
[06:17] <frog292> current;ly i have 18 gigs or so for ubuntu - way too much...... so how large shoudli  make it and how large shoudl imake hte hoem dir?
[06:17] <Flannel> !pin | gatekeep
[06:17] <ubotu> gatekeep: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[06:17] <frog292> and can i use a fat32 partition for my home dir?>
[06:17] <Comrade_Sergei> does anyone know where to get the chord library for gnometab?\
[06:17] <h1st0> mjrosenb: yeah it works.  Well atleast thats the only thing acpi can report on my system so it works for me.
[06:17] <lkthomas> hey guys
[06:18] <lkthomas> I just plugin two serial ATA hdd, but both of them can't be found
[06:18] <Flannel> frog292: I'd think something like 3 or 4 GB for / and then the rest for /home would be sufficient.  Default ubuntu install is ~2GB
[06:18] <lkthomas> bios found two device
[06:18] <lkthomas> but not on linux
[06:18] <SubOne> where does the adept updater have a log file?
[06:18] <frog292> hmmm. what if iwant to isntall prgrams on wine? would they be in the home di?

[06:19] <happy_nic> frog292: they install to something like ~/.wine/c_drive
[06:19] <Fujitsu> ~/.wine/drive_c, actually.
[06:19] <frog292> what is ~ ?
[06:20] <Flannel> frog292: home, it's /home/username/
[06:20] <Fujitsu> frog292: ~ is your home directory.
[06:20] <Comrade_Sergei> does anyone know where to get the chord library for gnometab?\
[06:20] <frog292> nice
[06:20] <frog292> ok, so i'll remake ubuntu as smaller

[06:21] <NickGarvey> Fujitsu, !ops | jasonbbb
[06:21] <frog292> so it won't yell if my home is fat32.... ok
[06:22] <Comrade_Sergei> does anyone know where to get the chord library for gnometab?\
[06:22] <NickGarvey> frog292, mm.. I don't think.. that is a good idea..
[06:22] <devin_> just curious, is there a command that can tell when ubuntu was installed ?
[06:22] <Fujitsu> NickGarvey: I realise that now :)
[06:22] <Flannel> frog292: You sort of... lose the ability to have permissions
[06:22] <NickGarvey> frog292, because.. you don't have permissions
[06:22] <frog292> and can i expand my existing fat32 shared partition and change it to my home dir without losing data?
[06:22] <NickGarvey> frog292, you don't want a fat32 to be /home/you
[06:22] <frog292> ok
[06:22] <frog292> nm then
[06:22] <KalleDK> happy_nic looks nice special the singleuser cost
[06:22] <tunganet> Will installing the fonts from EASYUBUNTU create any problem for my system? eg. loading webpages and stuff
[06:22] <dhorn> Hey, can anyone help me with some ALSA stuff?
[06:22] <frog292> well, i;m off to go resintall
[06:22] <lkthomas> NickGarvey, what is that command use for
[06:22] <NickGarvey> lkthomas, what command?
[06:23] <sid> What is the proper way to do update-manager from command line?
[06:23] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Please do not use EasyUbuntu.
[06:23] <frog292> should i have a sperate boot partition?
[06:23] <tunganet> Fujitsu: why not?
[06:23] <frog292> !easyubuntu
[06:23] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[06:23] <NickGarvey> sid, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:23] <happy_nic> frog292: fat32 might not be such a good idea..
[06:23] <lkthomas>  Fujitsu, !ops | jasonbbb <--
[06:23] <Fujitsu> sid: For security upgrades and the like?
[06:23] <Fujitsu> lkthomas: Calls the ops.
[06:23] <NickGarvey> lkthomas, oh, that command would alert all the ops, and tell them who the troublemaker was
[06:23] <happy_nic> frog292: i'm not sure how the linux permissions and things will work out.
[06:23] <lkthomas> ahha, ok
[06:23] <sid> NickGarvey: But apt-get isn't as good as aptitude I've seen debian developers say. NickGarvey also.. there are policy changes that update-manager handles... does apt-get do that also?
[06:23] <crimsun> dhorn: pastebin requested info from http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems
[06:24] <frog292> so i'm not doojng fat now, but should i do a sperate boot parttion?
[06:24] <dhorn> crimsun: just a minue
[06:24] <tunganet> Fujitsu: how do i undo the things that easy ubuntu has done? :o
[06:24] <dhorn> crimsun: *minute
[06:24] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Reinstall, generally.
[06:24] <frog292> !easyubuntu
[06:24] <Shrimpy_> Any one ever used ettercap before, that can help me out?

[06:24] <NickGarvey> sid, can't say I use aptitude much.. (or ubuntu for that matter hah)
[06:25] <tunganet> frog292: it doesnt teach me how to uninstall it
[06:25] <tunganet> Fujitsu: what is the command line to re/uninstall easyubuntu sir =[
[06:25] <catid> hello.. does anyone know where Ubuntu keeps its microcode?
[06:25] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Uninstalling it won't revert what it has done.
[06:26] <catid> like if i want to install ipw3945 microcode where should i put it?
[06:26] <tunganet> Fujitsu: so.. what shall i do
[06:26] <h1st0> Shrimpy_: what are you tyring to do?
[06:26] <Fujitsu> catid: Firmware?
[06:26] <tunganet> Fujitsu: i have also used automatix before
[06:26] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Ah. That's even worse.
[06:26] <catid> Fujitsu: yeah
[06:26] <tunganet> Fujitsu: dear god, i heard good things about them
[06:26] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Your system is likely irreversibly scarred.
[06:26] <tunganet> Fujitsu: WHAT
[06:26] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Those good things are entirely wrong.
[06:26] <frog292> as mine is
[06:26] <Flannel> !automatix
[06:26] <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
[06:26] <happy_nic> frog292: i think the separate /boot is overrated. especially for a desktop install. and it might actually cause more headaches later if it fills up
[06:26] <frog292> !worksforme
[06:26] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[06:27] <tunganet> Fujitsu: help =[
[06:27] <frog292> this isn't a desktop install. its a laptop, but i won't have it seperate then
[06:27] <h1st0> !goodbotusage
[06:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about goodbotusage - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:27] <Fujitsu> tunganet: As it says, we don't provide support... It can break a lot of systems.
[06:27] <Fujitsu> People, please stop the bot-spam...
[06:27] <KalleDK> !love
[06:27] <ubotu> Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.
[06:27] <KalleDK> HAHA
[06:27] <Flannel> frog292, happy_nic, separate boot partitions are nice when dualbooting and stuff.  Because you've essentially isolated your ability to boot from the OS.  If you later delete linux, you can just leave your /boot and not have to fixmbr or anything.
[06:27] <catid> lol
[06:27] <frog292> lol
[06:27] <h1st0> !botabuse
[06:27] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[06:27] <tunganet> Fujitsu: so uh.. how do i reinstall easyubuntu?
[06:28] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Perhaps ask in #easyubuntu
[06:28] <frog292> ok, so how large should my boot partition be?
[06:28] <catid> where does Ubuntu look for firmware?
[06:28] <tunganet> Fujitsu: ok thanks
[06:28] <crimsun> catid: /lib/firmware/$(uname -r)
[06:28] <NickGarvey> frog292, I usually put them to be about.. 50MB
[06:28] <Fujitsu> Isn't ipw3945 supported OOTB?
[06:28] <NickGarvey> frog292, just clean out old kernels though..
[06:28] <kuma> hi, i've been googling for a while some way so any user can mount any device. I haven't find something that solves my problem, can you guys help me?
[06:28] <crimsun> it is.
[06:28] <catid> crimsun: thanks mate
[06:28] <frog292> and how large shoudl me swap be?
[06:28] <Fujitsu> NickGarvey: That's a little on the small size.
[06:28] <Fujitsu> *side
[06:28] <frog292> *my
[06:28] <NickGarvey> kuma, there is a program called "pmount", it might be in the repos
[06:28] <Flannel> frog292: I made mine 512 (boot), swap depends on what you're doing
[06:28] <NickGarvey> Fujitsu, well.. how big are your kernels..
[06:28] <frog292> any rue of thumb?
[06:29] <frog292> like same as ram?
[06:29] <frog292> or double
[06:29] <NickGarvey> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.5M Mar 24 15:25 bzImage
[06:29] <Fujitsu> /dev/sda1             236M  190M   34M  86% /boot
[06:29] <Flannel> frog292: Most people recommend swap to be 2X your RAM.  I don't see much use for swap more than 2GB.
[06:29] <frog292> k
[06:29] <Fujitsu> (although I do have a few old kernels there)
[06:29] <kuma> NickGarvey thanks
[06:29] <tunganet> Fujitsu: there is noone in the channel..

[06:30] <Flannel> frog292: If you're planning on suspending to disk, you need at LEAST as much swap as you have RAM.
[06:30] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Well, we don't provide support for it here. Maybe check their website.
[06:30] <NickGarvey> !info pmount
[06:30] <ubotu> pmount: mount removable devices as normal user. In component main, is optional. Version 0.9.13-1build1 (edgy), package size 39 kB, installed size 588 kB
[06:30] <frog292> ok
[06:30] <tunganet> Fujitsu: i cannot load webpages properly right now because of easyubuntu i think..
[06:30] <frog292> so my plan - 512 boot, 2 gb swap, 4.5 gb linux, the rest between shared and home dir
[06:31] <Flannel> frog292: of course, if your HD is 10GB, and you have 1GB of RAM.  I'd probably go 1GB swap max.  Since, well, I've got 1GB swap anyway, with 1GB RAM, and my HD is 300GB.
[06:31] <Fujitsu> tunganet: It's unlikely that EasyUbuntu did that... What error is it giving?
[06:31] <tunganet> Fujitsu: its just not loading, no error messages
[06:31] <frog292> Flannel: does that sound just about right?
[06:32] <Flannel> frog292: sounds good, yeah.
[06:32] <frog292> k
[06:32] <frog292> Godbye world.
[06:32] <tunganet> Fujitsu: May i ask why automatix and easyubuntu would cause damage even after re/uninstalled?
[06:32] <frog292> *goodbye >.<
[06:32] <Flannel> tunganet: because they do stuff that doesn't get undone when they get uninstalled
[06:32] <Fujitsu> tunganet: They do the damage when you run them and install stuff from them
[06:33] <Fujitsu> What Flannel said.
[06:33] <tunganet> Fujitsu: so here i am, installed automatix and easyubunut because of its false rumour.  What should i do?
[06:34] <Fujitsu> tunganet: Leave them alone for the moment. If you haven't noticed anything broken, there may be no problem at the moment.
[06:34] <tunganet> Fujitsu: "at the moment"? Are you saying it will generate problems over time?
[06:34] <Flannel> tunganet: just backup before you upgrade to Feisty (or whatever).  since that's another point at which hidden troubles with them show up.
[06:34] <Fujitsu> If you use them further, or upgrade, things are likely to break.
[06:35] <tunganet> Fujitsu: so easyubuntu/automatix is like a cancer that i've just downloaded for my computer?
[06:35] <Flannel> tunganet: actually, if you're planning on upgrading, it might be a good point to reinstall.  Backup (which you'd be doing any way, since you're not sure if your upgrade will work), then do a fresh install of Feisty.
[06:35] <Fujitsu> tunganet: It can break your system horribly, especially on upgrades.
[06:36] <Flannel> tunganet: a good point to get a fresh start, especially because from what I hear, Feisty removes most of the reason for stupid programs like automatix.
[06:36] <tunganet> dear god
[06:36] <tunganet> starting a fresh copy of ubuntu is a pain..
[06:36] <dhorn> crimsun: check #alsa when you get a second, thanks!
[06:36] <tunganet> i have done so much to get it to this point.. =
[06:37] <Fujitsu> Automated codec and driver installation, which is what most of the options in EasyUbuntu/Automatix do, is nicely integrated into Feisty :)
[06:37] <Flannel> tunganet: not if you've backed up properly.  You backup all config files, all data, and you can even get a list of what programs you've installed, to reference later.
[06:37] <Prez_> any suggestions on what i can check on my Edgy setup that whenever i resume my laptop sound is dead?  using intel HDA module
[06:37] <tunganet> Flannel: that sounds easy.. how do i do that?
[06:38] <Flannel> tunganet: Uh... Which part?  Backup all your stuff?  just normal backup.  To get a list of (all) packges installed, `dpkg -l`
[06:38] <Mugwump09> Ademan: you there?
[06:38] <tunganet> Flannel: normal backup means.. using an external harddrive to store the stuff?
[06:38] <Mugwump09> Ademan: I found some more errors, I think
[06:38] <Flannel> tunganet: mind you, if you're starting with a new version, not all of that stuff would necessarily need to be reinstalled (since there might be stuff on Edgy that isn't in Feisty, etc)
[06:38] <twysted> what are some good mp3 plays simular to itunes in how they organize music (pls no rythmbox)
[06:38] <Flannel> tunganet: Or a separate partition, or a CD, or whatnot.
[06:38] <Flannel> !backup | tunganet
[06:38] <ubotu> tunganet: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[06:39] <h1st0> twysted: rythmbox?
[06:39] <h1st0> twysted: lol amarok is another one to check out.
[06:39] <Flannel> tunganet: Linux makes backup pretty easy.  Everything of yours is in /home, maybe some stuff in /var (/var/www, for instance), and then all config stuff is just /etc.

[06:39] <tunganet> !install
[06:39] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[06:39] <Fujitsu> DGMurdockIII: No trolling, thanks.
[06:39] <twysted> h1st0 k ill check it out
[06:40] <kkd> can someone recommend a good newsgroup reader i can use in ubuntu ?
[06:40] <Flannel> tunganet: of course, Stuff in /etc shouldn't be replaced exactly either.  Because config formats change over time as well.
[06:40] <DGMurdockIII> im not
[06:40] <Fujitsu> tunganet: You might want to do that in a PM, rather than spamming the channel
[06:40] <twysted> DGMurdockIII> what would you have it based off of? lol
[06:40] <tunganet> I am sorry.
[06:40] <DGMurdockIII> built it from scratch
[06:40] <Mugwump09> hey guys, 6.10 keeps freezing after I log in, and I found these in the syslog "apm: overridden by ACPI" "ibm_acpi: ec object not found"
[06:40] <Flannel> DGMurdockIII: #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support related chatter, thanks.
[06:40] <h1st0> kkd: check out Applications > Add remove programs.  You can find apps that other people use there.
[06:40] <Ernesto4> twysted: try banshee
[06:40] <twysted> anywho :)
[06:41] <twysted> ernesto4 that looks nice thanks
[06:41] <tunganet> Flannel: will erasing all in my partitions and reinstalling them work?
[06:41] <Flannel> tunganet: Wha? what?
[06:41] <Mugwump09> so, can anyone help me?
[06:41] <tunganet> Flannel: reformatting it
[06:42] <Flannel> tunganet: wouldn't that be the same as reinstalling?
[06:42] <tunganet> Flannel: yes but uhh
[06:42] <h1st0> Mugwump09: is this installed system or are you trying to boot off of cd?
[06:42] <tunganet> Flannel: i want to do it without backing anything up
[06:42] <Flannel> tunganet: or do you mean one at a time?
[06:42] <Mugwump09> h1st0: it's installed already
[06:42] <arpegius_> can i do an apt-get remove that totally nukes all conf related to a package?
[06:42] <Rictoo> what is 'gtkwifi'?
[06:42] <Flannel> arpegius_: --purge
[06:42] <MaartenLx> I can't change the background in KDE anymore... I am suspecting its a configuration file that has no write rights or something, but /home/user/.kde has full rights and is owned by me... anyone any idea? Can't seem to figure it out.
[06:42] <Mugwump09> but it won't run off the disc either
[06:42] <h1st0> Mugwump09: Has the system ever worked or what has changed?
[06:42] <Mugwump09> I used the alternative to install
[06:42] <Mugwump09> no
[06:43] <tunganet> Flannel: i remember when i used the livecd to install ubuntu. it got me into a partition page.
[06:43] <Mugwump09> never has
[06:43] <Flannel> tunganet: If you're just shuffling partitions, you're effectively doing nothing.
[06:43] <Rictoo> !gtkwifi
[06:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtkwifi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:43] <h1st0> Mugwump09: So new install?
[06:43] <Rictoo> what is 'gtkwifi'?
[06:43] <Mugwump09> yeah
[06:43] <Johno> how do you display your system info as part of your background like this? http://overclockix.octeams.com/snapshot21.jpg
[06:43] <h1st0> Mugwump09: try booting with acpi support off.
[06:43] <Mugwump09> I did
[06:43] <Mugwump09> you mean type acpi=off?
[06:43] <Flannel> Johno: that's conky, I imagine.
[06:43] <Mugwump09> I did that, still froze up
[06:43] <happy_nic> Johno: those might be gdesklets
[06:43] <h1st0> Mugwump09: something to that effect not sure if thats the exact optoin.  They are listed if you hit f8 or somehting on the cds boot menu.
[06:44] <jerkface03> Hey guys I'm having problems running and installing Ubuntu. Ubuntu server never actually starts, it just makes my computer reboot over and over again, while ubuntu desktop's installation just stalls at the ubuntu splash screen.
[06:44] <jerkface03> Can anyone help me out?
[06:44] <h1st0> Mugwump09: there is one for apm as well I believe.
[06:44] <Flannel> jerkface03: try the alternate CD.
[06:44] <kkd> hlst0: is pan any good ?
[06:44] <Johno> flannel: is that a program?
[06:44] <tunganet> Flannel: How do i get to the page where it lets me reformat..
[06:44] <Flannel> tunganet: what?
[06:44] <Mugwump09> h1st0: so what exactly do I do?
[06:44] <jerkface03> Flannel: I didn't find one on the download page? Can you please provide me with a link?
[06:44] <Johno> happy_nic: what do you mean
[06:44] <tunganet> Flannel: I remember when i used LIVECD from windows, i double clicked "install ubuntu now" then it got me into a page with partitions and stuff
[06:44] <jmg> DGMurdockIII: no spam please
[06:44] <h1st0> Mugwump09: What type of hardware is this running on?  Is this older stuff?
[06:45] <Fujitsu> DGMurdockIII: Please turn that off.
[06:45] <Rictoo> what is 'gtkwifi'?
[06:45] <Flannel> Johno: yeah.  it's in the repos, also: http://conky.sourceforge.net/
[06:45] <SubOne> Everytime I try to install or uninstall something with Adept I get an error that says "There was an error committing changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages." Any idea how I would resolve this issue?
[06:45] <jmg> !nospam
[06:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nospam - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:45] <jmg> !spam
[06:45] <ubotu> Unsure how you should behave on this channel? See !CoC, !Guidelines, !Offtopic, !Language, !Attitude, !Repeat, !Enter, !Paste, !NickSpam, !AskTheBot - and most importantly, use common sense :-)
[06:45] <twysted> jerkface03>  use teh server install cd not the desktop cd
[06:45] <Flannel> tunganet: Right.  You need an install CD.
[06:45] <Mugwump09> h1st0: quite new, ASUS A8N-sli premium, GeForce 7800 GT
[06:45] <tunganet> Flannel: so its just the same thing right?
[06:45] <h1st0> Mugwump09: hrm... can you boot to recovery mode?
[06:45] <jerkface03> twysted, as I said, server installation didn't work. It installed but ubuntu never started up
[06:45] <Flannel> jerkface03: http://releases.ubuntu.com/  The new download pages are impossible to navigate.
[06:45] <h1st0> Mugwump09: and when exactly does the system hang?
[06:45] <Johno> flannel: what does repository mean?
[06:45] <madman91> HOW DO I .. find an isp?
[06:46] <Mugwump09> h1st0: it hangs right at the song, I can log in
[06:46] <twysted> jerkface03> how did it not start up, what kind of system are you trying to install this on? decently modern? older then sin?
[06:46] <Mugwump09> h1st0: how do I boot in recovery mode?
[06:46] <Flannel> Johno: when you use synaptic/adept/apt-get/whatever to install stuff, you're installing from a repository.
[06:46] <h1st0> Mugwump09: the screen just goes black right?
[06:46] <Flannel> !repository | Johno
[06:46] <Mugwump09> no
[06:46] <happy_nic> Flannel: some gnome thing that has embedded desktop stuff like that, but Flannel is right, it's conky
[06:46] <ubotu> Johno: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[06:46] <jerkface03> Flannel: which version of ubuntu do you recommend? I'm just setting it up on 400mhz box w/ a 10gig hd and 256mb ram
[06:46] <h1st0> Mugwump09: or do you get a X failed to start.
[06:46] <jerkface03> I'm going to use it as an SVN server
[06:47] <Mugwump09> h1st0: idk, it looks like something tries to pop up, but it doesn't come up completely, I only see the top of it
[06:47] <h1st0> Mugwump09: reboot the system and from the grub menu select recover mode.  That should get you a shell prompt so you can atleast fix some stuff.
[06:47] <Flannel> jerkface03: I'm running Dapper on my server-ish machine.  Alternate CD is also able to install a CLI only, which is handy.
[06:47] <Fujitsu> jerkface03: Ubuntu 6.10, the Server CD.
[06:47] <Fujitsu> Or Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, whichever you prefer.
[06:47] <Flannel> tunganet: Installing is the same as installing?  what?
[06:47] <h1st0> Mugwump09: Sounds like you are having issues with video.
[06:47] <h1st0> Mugwump09: not the computer locking.
[06:47] <Rictoo> what is 'gtkwifi'?
[06:47] <Flannel> Fujitsu: he already said the server CD doesn't work.  Which doesn't supriseme.  He needs the Alt. CD
[06:47] <Mugwump09> h1st0: yeah that's probably it
[06:47] <Rictoo> what is 'gtkwifi'?
[06:47] <Rictoo> -.-
[06:47] <tunganet> Flannel: reformatting is as easy as using the installcd like the first time correct?
[06:47] <Fujitsu> Flannel: Oh yes, oops.
[06:47] <jmg> !google
[06:47] <Rictoo> someone answer me =/
[06:47] <ubotu> Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[06:48] <jerkface03> Flannel: Awesome. I'll try it out. Thank you.

[06:48] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[06:48] <Rictoo> jmg, I did use google
[06:48] <h1st0> what is jfgi?
[06:48] <Mugwump09> h1st0: gah, I just want it to worrrk. I've been messing with this stuff for like, 3 days now
[06:48] <h1st0> haven't heard that one.
[06:48] <ardchoille> !gtkwifi
[06:48] <MaartenLx> Hmm... I can't seem to figure out why I can no longer change the background in KDE/Kubuntu.... and by the looks of it, not many people seem to know either, at least not according to google :D
[06:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtkwifi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:48] <jmg> Rictoo: im feeling lucky
[06:48] <Johno> flannel: do I have to be connected to the internet to instal conky?
[06:48] <jmg> h1st0: just fucking google it
[06:48] <h1st0> Mugwump09: well reboot in to recovery mode and we'll see what we can do.
[06:48] <Fujitsu> !language
[06:48] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:48] <Mugwump09> h1st0: okay
[06:48] <h1st0> Mugwump09: or just hit ctrl+alt+f1 and see if youg et a terminal
[06:49] <h1st0> jmg: ahh
[06:49] <jmg> Fujitsu: substitute fscking
[06:49] <Flannel> Johno: Repositories are online, yes.  Unless you have the alternate CD, then you can use that as small repos.  Let me check to see if conky is on it.
[06:49] <Fujitsu> jmg, that's still not CoC-compliant.
[06:49] <h1st0> Flannel: he could pull the deb from packages.ubuntu.com
[06:49] <Flannel> Johno: nope.  So, only way to get it is from the interblags, yeah.
[06:50] <banana43> I was wondering if i could get some help with getting my wifi to work
[06:50] <tunganet> Flannel: do you recommend using envy script to install nvidia driver?
[06:50] <Fujitsu> !wifi | banana43
[06:50] <ubotu> banana43: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:50] <Flannel> h1st0: that'd still require the internet.
[06:50] <h1st0> Flannel: ahh well yes
[06:50] <Fujitsu> !nvidia | tunganet
[06:50] <ubotu> tunganet: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:50] <Johno> flannel: is there anyway I could download a repository or file and instal that way?
[06:50] <jmg> eww CoC!
[06:50] <jmg> !language
[06:50] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:51] <h1st0> ?
[06:51] <Fujitsu> jmg, please stop the bot-spam!
[06:51] <ant-> thats kinda funny
[06:51] <billy> !botsnack
[06:51] <ubotu> Yum!
[06:51] <banana43> mmmm it's telling me to use the ndiswrapper trick again; but i get an error in the last step where it says 'permission denied'
[06:51] <Flannel> Johno: yeah.  you can sneakernet.  But you'll have to resolve dependencies yourself.  Or, you can use something like "Apt-on-CD" to download a whole CD full of goodness.
[06:51] <MaartenLx> Heh, no one here knows either. I must have a weird problem no one knows about yet :D
[06:51] <Fujitsu> banana43: What was the command?
[06:51] <h1st0> MaartenLx: what was your problem?
[06:52] <jmg> !attitude < Fujitsu
[06:52] <Fujitsu> MaartenLx: Try #kubuntu
[06:52] <MaartenLx> I can't change the background in KDE anymore... I am suspecting its a configuration file that has no write rights or something, but /home/user/.kde has full rights and is owned by me... anyone any idea? Can't seem to figure it out.
[06:52] <jmg> :(
[06:52] <jmg> okay okay
[06:52] <h1st0> MaartenLx: Well you might want to be a little more descriptive.  How are you trying to change it and any errors you get.
[06:52] <jmg> Fujitsu: ill stop now ;)
[06:52] <tunganet> Flannel: is there a way to backup the driver i am using right now?
[06:52] <Fujitsu> jmg: Thankyou.
[06:52] <h1st0> MaartenLx: also there is #kubuntu channel.
[06:52] <Fujitsu> MaartenLx: #kubuntu is for KDE support.
[06:52] <banana43> when i do ndiswrapper -m
[06:53] <h1st0> ughh ndiswrapper
[06:53] <Fujitsu> banana43: stick sudo in front of that.
[06:53] <robertlee> good morning!  can somebody suggest me a good program for technical-drawing
[06:53] <banana43> yeah, with that there
[06:53] <h1st0> robertlee: Applications > Add Remove Programs
[06:53] <hijjt> is there a grub option to make x not start, it refuses to start and won't let me back to console again at all, any other suggestions will help
[06:53] <banana43> then there was this whole step where they did a whole conffile; do sequence
[06:53] <h1st0> hijjt: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log for errors
[06:53] <banana43> (it's a broadcom card on amd64)
[06:54] <Fujitsu> hijjt: You can try recovery mode, which won't start X.
[06:54] <robertlee> i use xubuntu
[06:54] <h1st0> banana43: you could use fwcutter with the broadcom card.
[06:54] <judaz> Hey!
[06:54] <robertlee> and cannot find that in applications
[06:54] <MaartenLx> hist0: I get no errors whatsoever. It just doesn't do it. If I go in however and delete the wallpaper from \user\share\wallpaper, the wallpaper disappears. And if I then place a wallpaper with the same name (seaofconero.jpg in my case) that wallpaper appears. It seems that somewhere, there is a config file that has the seaofconero.jpg setting STUCK in it....
[06:54] <Fujitsu> Hi judaz.
[06:54] <judaz> Fujitsu, hey.. how are u?
[06:54] <judaz> hey, i need help with a dhcp server...
[06:54] <ant-> would you consider recovery mode a physical security risk?
[06:54] <Fujitsu> judaz, I'm alright, but this isn't the place for such discussion.
[06:54] <Flannel> MaartenLx: It's most likely in your homedir
[06:55] <banana43> thanks, i'll look that one up
[06:55] <h1st0> MaartenLx: wallpaper should be in your ~
[06:55] <quaal_mac> whats it mean when the screen is frozen. i can move the mouse and i can see someone in a chat window typing t me, but the keyboard and mouseclicks are disfunctional ?
[06:55] <h1st0> MaartenLx: not in /usr/share/whatever.
[06:55] <Fujitsu> ant-: No. Any physical access at all is a security risk.
[06:55] <Flannel> ant-: physical access to your computer is a security risk (liveCD, etc)
[06:55] <judaz> Fujitsu, -.- ok.. i was just beign polite.. sorry
[06:55] <MaartenLx> Flannel, thats what I thought.... so I chowned ./kde, but no go.
[06:55] <h1st0> MaartenLx: and how are you trying to change it?
[06:55] <MaartenLx> rightclick --> change desktop
[06:55] <Fujitsu> judaz: That's fine, but we're rather busy in here, as you can see.
[06:55] <robertlee> i use xubuntu.... can somebody suggest me a good program for technical-drawing
[06:55] <MaartenLx> select a wallpaper from the list, etc
[06:55] <Flannel> MaartenLx: Eh?  chown is never the answer.  And, it might not be ~/.kde anyway.  I'd grep to see if you can find it in your homedir.
[06:55] <judaz> I need a DHCP client connected to my server to reconnect
[06:56] <judaz> how can i do that?
[06:56] <quaal_mac> whats it mean when the screen is frozen. i can move the mouse and i can see someone in a chat window typing t me, but the keyboard and mouseclicks are disfunctional ?
[06:56] <budman_> Can anyone help me with 915 resolution fix?
[06:56] <h1st0> MaartenLx: alright what about changing in from kde's settings or whatever.  I dunno you probably get a better answer in #kubuntu since they can tell you where to look.
[06:56] <Fujitsu> !915resolution
[06:56] <ubotu> 915resolution: resolution modification tool for Intel graphic chipset. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.5.2-4ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 14 kB, installed size 128 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 kfreebsd-i386 kfreebsd-amd64)
[06:56] <h1st0> judaz: what you just want the computer to reconnect?
[06:56] <dkbg> robertlee: sagcad maybe?
[06:56] <Fujitsu> budman_: Install the 915resolution package
[06:57] <judaz> h1st0, yep..
[06:57] <dkbg> robertlee: try searching around in synaptic and ubuntuforums.org
[06:57] <ant-> budman_ : there is a script called auto915resolution that does it all for you. read up on it.
[06:57] <robertlee> :D
[06:57] <h1st0> judaz: well bringing up and down the net connection would work.  sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart  or something to that effect.
[06:57] <h1st0> judaz: there is also dhclient and similiar tools.
[06:57] <drfoz> is here a way to make firefox NOT lock up at youtube?
[06:57] <budman_> Fujitsu: Lol... yes but I need it to start every time to work. Ive tried rc.local init.d only way i can get it to work is to boot in recovery mode and run it manually.
[06:57] <Fujitsu> judaz: sudo dhclient in the terminal will do it.
[06:57] <wafro> nice .. suspend/resume works now on my acer aspire 9410
[06:58] <ant-> budman_ : did you see what i wrote?
[06:58] <Fujitsu> budman_: It will automatically run on each reboot.
[06:58] <budman_> Im looking at it ant now.
[06:58] <budman_> thanks.
[06:58] <h1st0> budman_: /etc/rc.local should work.
[06:58] <Fujitsu> ant-: That's the same thing I said earlier...
[06:58] <judaz> h1st0, im having a problem.. im trying to share internet between 2 interfaces
[06:58] <judaz> h1st0, i did iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
[06:58] <h1st0> judaz: wouldn't know where to begin on that one.
[06:58] <ant-> Fujitsu : the auto in front of 915resolution is a key difference
[06:58] <judaz> but it doesnt seem to work
[06:58] <dkbg> robertlee: so, did that help you?
[06:59] <hijjt> h1st0, there aren't any errors in the  Xorg.0.log
[06:59] <Fujitsu> ant-: Ah, didn't see that. 915resolution in 6.10 and above works automatically, because I uploaded it. 6.06 needs the resolution manually configured.
[06:59] <h1st0> hrm..
[06:59] <Fujitsu> budman_: Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[06:59] <ser_o> how do view .chm files ? I have a ebook which is .chm
[06:59] <h1st0> hijjt: well what happens on the system?
[06:59] <hijjt> h1st0, everything initialized ok, and i don't even think that it doesn't load, it just doesn't display anything at all on the screen
[07:00] <Fujitsu> ser_o: Try installing gnochm.
[07:00] <ser_o> ok.. thanks
[07:00] <ser_o> can I convert it to pdf ?
[07:00] <ser_o> or ps ?
[07:00] <Flannel> ser_o: xchm works too.
[07:01] <h1st0> hijjt: what type of video card do you have?
[07:01] <Fujitsu> ser_o: You might be able to use the Print feature to PDF, but I'm not quite sure.
[07:01] <h1st0> hijjt: and how did you install?
[07:01] <hijjt> h1st0, mobility 9600,
[07:01] <ser_o> ok..thanks anyway
[07:01] <brophat> hey what category is firestarter listed under in the add/remove programs.
[07:01] <nomopofomo> can someone name a disk check/repair program for me?
[07:01] <h1st0> hijjt: how'd you install it?  With alternate cd or the GUI desktop version?
[07:02] <hijjt> h1st0, alt install cd, or the first with safe graphics mode, i have had this working with the xorg ati driver in edgy before, this is a new feisty install

[07:02] <happy_nic> i just installed gdesklets for the hell of it. the sad thing about these cpu monitors is that the 3%-8% it hovers around is solely due to its own existence
[07:02] <mkquist> hey peeps - boot failure after moving usr directory, anyone know which logs might give some info?
[07:02] <h1st0> brophat: in the search box
[07:02] <billy> brophat: not sure it's in there.
[07:02] <Fujitsu> brophat: Not sure, but you can use the search box at the top.
[07:02] <Fujitsu> mkquist: .. why did you move it?
[07:02] <linux_user400354> nomopofomo: fsck
[07:03] <h1st0> hijjt: well fiesty support is in #ubuntu+1
[07:03] <SubOne> that command i ran "sudo aptitude install mplayer" is taking a long time and its saying its setting up a lot of stuff like open office and the kernel etc, what does that command do?
[07:03] <Fujitsu> happy_nic: That's what computers do...
[07:03] <billy> brophat:  you trying to install firestarter?
[07:03] <h1st0> hijjt: but most likely you just have to install the proper video drivers.  or sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:03] <mkquist> Fujitsu - only able to get an install to work on small disk (4 gig) and wanted to move some of the directories to my 400 gig to keep from filling up the small disk
[07:03] <nomopofomo> disk checking program anybody?
[07:03] <Fujitsu> SubOne: Sounds like it is upgrading a lot of stuff.
[07:03] <h1st0> nomopofomo: fsck
[07:03] <brophat> billy my borther is who lives i another state
[07:03] <nomopofomo> thanks
[07:03] <Fujitsu> mkquist: At what point in the boot does it fail?
[07:04] <mkquist> Fujitsu - init... something
[07:04] <hijjt> h1st0, fair enough, but the fglrx driver is annoying
[07:04] <billy> brophat:  you can find it in Synaptic Package Manager.  System > Administration > Synaptic
[07:04] <NickGarvey> what command will tell me my resolution?
[07:04] <mkquist> Fujitsu - before it gets to entering username
[07:04] <SubOne> Fujitsu: right, i havent seen any errors yet, i hope its not upgrading to the distro still in development
[07:04] <guest> nomopofomo: fsck testdisk
[07:04] <h1st0> hijjt: well atleast untill you can get proper dirvers or whatever.
[07:04] <Fujitsu> NickGarvey: System->Preferences->Screen Resolution
[07:04] <nomopofomo> h1st0: i forgot to mention that it's an ntfs partition
[07:04] <pibarnas> Hi folks, I'm trying to install feisty on vmware, but it reaches a point that says sda is'nt readable, that it must restart the partition and I will lose all data in it, and I'm afraid to go ahead. Is it a natural procedure or I'll risk the system if I go ahead?
[07:05] <h1st0> nomopofomo: hrm..
[07:05] <happy_nic> mkquist: i'm assuming you made a symlink or something to the new location from /usr?
[07:05] <Fujitsu> pibarnas: Unless you manually told VMWare to use a physical disk (it warns you against doing that), that's what it should be doing.
[07:05] <mkquist> happy_nic - ok that doesnt sound good, no, and what do u mean?
[07:05] <h1st0> nomopofomo: well fsck -t ntfs  maybe?
[07:06] <pibarnas> Fujitsu oh, it's a normal procedure then?
[07:06] <nomopofomo> hm
[07:06] <Fujitsu> h1st0, nomopofomo: There are no NTFS filesystem checkers for Linux.
[07:06] <h1st0> nomopofomo: and there is testdisk in repos as well as, ntfsprogs
[07:06] <pibarnas> Fujitsu it won't harm my Edgy, for example...
[07:06] <Fujitsu> pibarnas: It just means that the disk is blank.
[07:06] <h1st0> Fujitsu: sure there are.
[07:06] <Fujitsu> h1st0: ... like?
[07:06] <h1st0> Fujitsu: it will heck it but not repair it.
[07:06] <guest> nomopofomo: testdisk works with ntfs
[07:07] <linux_user400354> h1st0: apt-cache show ntfsprogs
[07:07] <h1st0> Fujitsu: ^^^^^^^^^
[07:07] <pibarnas> Fujitsu Okay, thank you, I'll go ahead with the installation without any fear then! :)
[07:07] <catid> =)
[07:08] <linux_user400354> h1st0: is that what you are looking for? it gives you a ntfsfix command.
[07:08] <happy_nic> mkquist: well it's no wonder that you failed to boot. =] . the boot process is trying to read from /usr and isn't finding it. You should have made a symlink ln -s /path/to/new/usr /usr
[07:08] <Fujitsu> There's ntfsfix in ntfsprogs, but that doesn't do much.
[07:08] <h1st0> nomopofomo: ntfsprogs is what you are looking for.
[07:08] <Fujitsu> mkquist: Is /usr on its own partition now?
[07:08] <h1st0> nomopofomo: or testdisk for that matter.

[07:20] <billy> brophat:  after he enables the repositories, he'll need to click the "Update" button in Synaptic.  Then he'll be able to find it using Synaptic, or he can simply run the line that I gave you earlier.
[07:20] <Flannel> !grub | Frog29, first link

[07:21] <Frog29> ok....
[07:21] <Flannel> billy, brophat, not update, "reload" or refresh, or something like that.  Unless they changed the text in the past two years (which is possible)
[07:21] <Frog29> but how dod i find which drive is grub?
[07:21] <hole> installing ettercap
[07:21] <Fujitsu> billy, brophat, Flannel: It's `Reload'
[07:21] <billy> Flannel, brophat:  yeah.  something like that.
[07:21] <Frog29> or rather boot
[07:22] <Flannel> Frog29: how did you partition ubuntu?  Just all on one partition?
[07:22] <Frog29> no i did many partitions
[07:22] <billy> brophat:  it's "Reload".  Not "Update">
[07:22] <hole> whats the url for pastbin
[07:22] <Flannel> Frog29: then where did you put /boot?
[07:22] <billy> !pastebin | hole
[07:22] <ubotu> hole: 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)
[07:22] <Frog29> i just never wrote down which partition the /boot was
[07:22] <Flannel> Frog29: alright, well, use the liveCD, open up gparted, and take a gander at your partitions
[07:22] <Fujitsu> Frog29: Why do you need to know that? Just install grub to hd0...
[07:23] <Frog29> its a dual boot
[07:23] <Fujitsu> Oh, of course... You can't boot.
[07:23] <Fujitsu> You should have just left the default during the installer.
[07:23] <Frog29> Flannel: can i just use teh old liveecd for .06?
[07:23] <Fujitsu> Frog29: That'll do.
[07:23] <mkquist> happy_nic - could it be permissions? do u know if moving the files couldve caused a prob there?
[07:24] <Frog29> g or qparte?
[07:24] <Frog29> *parted
[07:24] <Fujitsu> Frog29: gparted
[07:24] <Heywood> Hey, I just installed a clean Ubuntu 6.10, and any time I click Network under Administrator, it starts this "Bug Report" thing...Any ideas? P.S. I'm a newb
[07:25] <Frog29> wait... o nteh alternate cd can i get to gparted?
[07:25] <hole> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12109/
[07:25] <Flannel> Frog29: the alt. CD isn't a liveCD, so no.
[07:25] <h1st0> Heywood: possibly the network-manager is crashing.
[07:25] <Frog29> k
[07:25] <brophat> My brother is confirming that it is "Reload"
[07:25] <hole> ettercap gave me this
[07:25] <happy_nic> mkquist: i doubt it.. did the dmesg log have any mention of it? did it at least say it mounted the partition?
[07:25] <billy> brophat:  the easiest way to install now is to run this in a terminal:  sudo apt-get install firestarter
[07:26] <brophat> billy my brother would like to point and click
[07:26] <yell0w> hey folks, how do i find xorg version ?
[07:26] <Heywood> h1st0:what can I do about that?
[07:26] <h1st0> Heywood: configure the interface manually
[07:26] <wafro> yell0w what dist version?
[07:26] <h1st0> Heywood: if its not working.
[07:26] <yell0w> wafro, dapper
[07:27] <billy> brophat:   that's cool.  you can perform a search in Synaptic.  Tell him to be sure that "All" is highlighted in the left column before clicking on "Search".
[07:27] <Fujitsu> yell0w: That's Xorg 7.0
[07:27] <h1st0> Heywood: open a terminal and gksu gedit /etc/network/interfaces  and make the appropriate changes for your network.
[07:27] <wafro> yell0w 7.1 ..  to check you can run 'Xorg -version'
[07:27] <Fujitsu> wafro: That's Edgy...
[07:27] <wafro> sorry 7.1 is edgy
[07:27] <Frog29> can i install grub from the linux system rescue cd?

[07:30] <h1st0> !ati > bamboo7
[07:30] <mkquist> happy_nic - the last line referes to my network card, which ive had no probs with so far
[07:30] <h1st0> bamboo7: try booting in safe graphics mode.
[07:31] <bamboo7> tried
[07:31] <bamboo7> that
[07:31] <bamboo7> tried the noapic and nolapic and vga=771
[07:31] <brophat> billy it gives him the option to downloan package files ony. should he check that?
[07:32] <h1st0> bamboo7: you tried safe graphics mode?
[07:32] <bamboo7> i did
[07:32] <Frog29> Flannel; just a few quick premise questions, when i was isntalling the partition tables i set it up so that i have a serperate bootable partition that is primary for my boot dir
[07:32] <brophat> billy package files only that is
[07:32] <h1st0> bamboo7: the other option is to install with alternate iso and then boot to recovery mode to install the apropriate drivers.
[07:32] <Frog29> is that workable if i want to keeop my other windows partition normal?
[07:32] <quaal_mac> what are you supposed to do when all you can do is move the mouse?
[07:32] <quaal_mac> keyboard does nthing
[07:33] <quaal_mac> mouseclicks do nothing
[07:33] <quaal_mac> i can see someone typing to me in a chat window
[07:33] <billy> brophat:  i'm not sure about that message.  Haven't used Synaptic in a while.  Is it a Yes/No question?
[07:33] <h1st0> quaal_mac: hit ctrl+alt+f1 and restart X
[07:33] <happy_nic> mkquist: well i'm stumped..
[07:33] <brophat> check or no check
[07:33] <h1st0> quaal_mac: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:33] <quaal_mac> h1st0, keyboard does nothing
[07:33] <brophat> the question makes no sense.
[07:33] <h1st0> quaal_mac: restart computer then i guess.
[07:33] <quaal_mac> gah
[07:34] <quaal_mac> what the hell causes this
[07:34] <happy_nic> mkquist: did it get to the point where it started loading services?
[07:34] <Heywood> h1st0: Sorry about that. A)The network does not work on the machine, B) it's a Linksys wireless PCI card, the WMP45G, I believe, and a Linksys router
[07:34] <bamboo7> thanks so much i will try that is there a guide on that somewhere or one you can recomend if not thank you
[07:34] <mkquist> happy_nic - gonna reboot it and get the specific error...
[07:34] <h1st0> Heywood: ahh you need drivers for that particular card.
[07:34] <h1st0> !wifi | Heywood
[07:34] <ubotu> Heywood: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:34] <happy_nic> mkquist: err i guess you can't see that with the ubuntu splash.. if you press alt-f1 I think you might see a bit more
[07:34] <billy> brophat:  I've never used that option.  Tell him not to click it.
[07:34] <os1ris> can anyone give me some insight on ndiswrapper?
[07:34] <happy_nic> i think it's alt-f1..
[07:34] <Heywood>  h1st0:I've looked at this, but don't understand it at all...
[07:35] <happy_nic> i hate that stupid splash
[07:35] <mkquist> happy_nic - INIT: cannot execute "/etc/init.d/rc" is the error
[07:35] <billy> brophat: I think that if he clicks that, they'll just downlaod and not install.
[07:35] <h1st0> Heywood: let me check hold up.
[07:35] <Heywood> h1st0: One more thing, my card actually shows up, which makes me think that the drivers are pre-installed or something....
[07:35] <quaal_mac> i had a raid array building too
[07:35] <brophat> billy ok that does make sense
[07:35] <quaal_mac> this sucks
[07:35] <benplaut> The family computer is running Dapper (updated about a month ago, not too often), and it's having a bit of trouble.  Sometimes, apps just don't open.  I can't get any command line output because when you open them from a term (which you have to start up with a tty), they work fine!  In addition, sometimes they open about ten minutes after the fact, and everything works from then on.  I was thinking that the loopback wasn't connected to 127.0.0.
[07:35] <benplaut> 1 (it is), or that dbus is screwed up.  Any advice?  I'm putting on edgy this summer, after a new hard drive and it goes LTS.

[07:36] <mkquist> happy_nic - does that give u the line by line startup?
[07:36] <happy_nic> mkquist: yeah, i think. it might be alt-f8..
[07:37] <happy_nic> mkquist: hmm /etc/init.d... that isn't even in /usr

[07:38] <h1st0> Heywood: you need to follow these intructions https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper

[07:40] <os1ris> its installed

[07:40] <os1ris> but just having problems getting it to pass traffic
[07:40] <brophat> when you install package does it automaticaly get listed in the application menu?
[07:40] <nownott> so is the ntfs read / write stable enough to depend on? or does is still have big bugs
[07:40] <billy> brophat:  not sure.  he would have had it done by now in a terminal.  sudo apt-get install firestarter
[07:41] <brophat> billy it already installed but he can't find it listed in the menu

[07:42] <thompsoz> ntfs read / write should be good to go under feisty fawn... Its listed as fully supported under 7.04
[07:42] <nownott> nice
[07:42] <billy> brophat: right on.  tell him that firestarter loads on boot, so there's no need to restart it from the menu every time.  It just runs in the background, silently.
[07:47] (billy/#ubuntu) yellow_chicken: try sudo /etc/init.d/ipmasq status
[07:51] <happy_nic> mkquist: maybe try reinstalling grub.. launch grub and then "root(hd0,1)" or whatever your / partition is and then "setup(hd0)"
[07:51] <yellow_chicken> billy: it printed out Usage /etc/init.d/ipmasq {start|stop|force-reload|restart}
[07:51] <alucard> i edited my kernel configuration quite heavily, yet when i do make-kpkg it says "nothing to be done" and just quits
[07:52] <billy> yellow_chicken: hmm.   there's a "status" usage for mine.  try "top" and look for it.
[07:52] <alucard> i edited my kernel configuration quite heavily, yet when i do make-kpkg it says "nothing to be done" and just quits
[07:52] <hed2000> can you install windows app on ubuntu?
[07:52] <hed2000> i read it has wine but i dont see it
[07:52] <Flannel> !wine | hed2000
[07:52] <ubotu> hed2000: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:52] <alucard> i edited my kernel configuration quite heavily, yet when i do make-kpkg it says "nothing to be done" and just quits
[07:53] <Flannel> hed2000: You'll need to enable universe
[07:53] <mrigns> hed2000: www.winehq.org
[07:53] <mrigns> go there and download 0.9.33
[07:53] <wilo> does anyone know a screen recording application for ubuntu?
[07:53] <bulmer> alucard you used fakeroot right?
[07:53] <GekiBlue> Okay, guys... Sometimes when I restart my computer... After the loading screen, it just goes black... and then other times it's just normal.
[07:53] <alucard> nah bulmer
[07:53] <billy> wilo:  istanbul, perhaps?
[07:53] <alucard> i was actually on root
[07:54] <hed2000> i tell you what i love ubuntu THX ill look into all the links:)
[07:54] <mkquist> happy_nic - not been able to get this old machine to boot off of 400 gig (where i want it installed), gonna try LBA in bios, that seemed to fix the little one last nite
[07:54] <GekiBlue> Anyone have any ideas? :O
[07:54] <Flannel> wilo: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts
[07:55] <hole> is there any way to make ethereal sniff a specific ip
[07:55] <alucard> bulmer: what could not using fakeroot have done?
[07:55] <bulmer> alucard am not familiar with ubuntu way of compiling a kernel, so using fakeroot as oppose to real root didnt make that much sense to me
[07:55] <mkquist> happy_nic - thanks for the help tho, ill be back either on my windows machine or hopefully the linux one... ; )
[07:55] <alucard> bulmer: i compiled several kernels just fine, i deleted the last one and then tried to make-kpkg this one and it won't make a package out of it
[07:55] <yellow_chicken> billy: ps aux | grep -i "ipmasq" shows nothing
[07:56] <yellow_chicken> i restarted ipmaq
[07:56] <mephisto_> join #ubuntu
[07:56] <bulmer> alucard: did you have to do a make-kpkg clean ?
[07:56] <billy> yellow_chicken:  i'm not sure of any other way to check it.
[07:56] <alucard> bulmer: yah i did make-kpkg clean
[07:57] <yellow_chicken> billy do you know howto to configure it?  i am trying to get internet access from another pc via this laptop.
[07:57] <billy> yellow_chicken:  i've never worked with it.  wish I could help.

[08:01] <catid> 'lo  i got wireless working =)
[08:02] <catid> network manager is a bit irritating though.. it tries to manage my wired connection, which i'd rather not have it do, because it will disconnect one to use the other
[08:02] <catid> i would like to have both connected at once
[08:02] <spectrm> catid, I believe that can be changed - be able to run them concurrently
[08:02] <catid> any ideas where to start?
[08:03] <xreyye> I'm having a lot of problems setting up a wireless connection, is this the place to ask?
[08:03] <catid> xreyye: worked for me
[08:03] <xreyye> thanks :)
[08:04] <geekytrent> is port forwarding for bittorrent worth it? and since you can only have one connection using the default bittorrent app, don't you only need to accept connections on 6881 instead of all nine?
[08:05] <xreyye> I've gone to System-Administration-Networking and it displays a screen that lists Wireless Connection and Modem connection
[08:05] <catid> geekytrent: KTorrent will forward the port for you on most home routers
[08:05] <catid> xreyye: which wireless card are you using?
[08:05] <xreyye> Does the fact that its displaying Wireless connection mean that its recognizing my card?
[08:05] <xreyye> catid: using Netgear WPN511
[08:06] <shirish> ok guys anybody up?
[08:07] <shirish> can somebody help me?

[08:07] <geekytrent> catid: does it make a noticable difference having it forwarded?
[08:07] <Darkkish> catid what?
[08:07] <catid> Darkkish: it's an option in gaim, turn off sound
[08:08] <Darkkish> catid if you say soi

[08:08] <Flannel> !anyone | shirish
[08:08] <ubotu> shirish: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:08] <catid> geekytrent: the bit torrent clients tend to upload more if you're uploading too
[08:08] <shirish> hi ubotus thnx
[08:08] <catid> shirish: what's wrong?
[08:09] <geekytrent> catid: right, but still being behind a nat should allow (if you have the ports open) sharing right?
[08:09] <anirudha> Hi, has anyone upgraded to Ubuntu 7.04 Beta?
[08:09] <billy> anirudha: I have.
[08:09] <shirish> ok I'm not able to run Gaim on linux, while I'm able to run it on windows
[08:09] <Flannel> anirudha: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty stuff.
[08:09] <shirish> also my network icon doesn't show network but I'm able to browse net.
[08:09] <anirudha> Billy, What do you think?
[08:09] <catid> geekytrent: yeah.. the problem with NAT is if your computer with bittorrent changes IP address the NAT needs to know about the changes..  it's just easier to use UPnP to configure it for you (built into KTorrent)
[08:09] <shirish> I have 2 NIC's on the comp.
[08:09] <geekytrent> catid: err, uploading, that is
[08:09] <Samus_Aran> does anyone know what CFLAGS I can use for GCC so that an app doesn't require GLIBC_2.3, but just GLIBC_2.0 ?
[08:10] <catid> geekytrent: i mean IP inside the network.. say your sister gets an ip before you do so your ip is now .101 instead of .100
[08:10] <billy> anirudha:  a little buggy.

[08:13] <catid> shirish: does gaim print an error or something?
[08:13] <geekytrent> catid: ok, but it doesn't make a speed difference with downloading if i have the correct internal ip address right? i was reading that forwarding the ports somehow speeds up your download since it gets a "direct connection", but since i have the ports open for the specific computer and am not worried about other computers (i manually hand out the ip addresses), your still getting a direct connection...or so i believe. am i wro
[08:14] <geekytrent> ng?
[08:14] <shirish> anirudha: nope, it just tries to connect & stays there, I'm using windows to talk to u guys
[08:14] <shirish> hang on, lemme check if I can get the logs to tell me what's going on
[08:14] <xreyye> Why am I getting errors when I try to install ndiswrapper? Specifically errors for the loadndisdriver part...
[08:15] <catid> geekytrent: okay it doesn't speed up downloading DIRECTLY.  other computers on the internet need to be able to connect to yours in order to download from you.  if you're behind NAT, you need the ports on your computer forwarded either manually or via UPnP, for people to connect to them
[08:15] <tunganet> I am getting error messages updating my softwares... What might be the problem?
[08:15] <shirish> ok where should I see for the .gaim logs?

[08:15] <catid> geekytrent: the way bit torrent works, if you're uploading also, you get to download faster
[08:16] <geekytrent> catid: then another question, how am i uploading already without port-forwarding through my nat?
[08:16] <tunganet> !paste

[08:16] <shirish> ok I don't have any logs here in .gaim, I have status.xml here
[08:17] <catid> geekytrent: there are smart ways to poke holes through firewalls, or to reuse a download connection to upload.  i assume it's one of those.  you'll upload much more reliably if you open the ports though

[08:41] <geekytrent> tunganet: i'll give ya a link, just a sec
[08:41] <tunganet> geekytrent: any how come? =[
[08:42] <tunganet> geekytrent: and how come*
[08:42] <jedidor> anyone know how to get nvidia extended desktop running?
[08:42] <tunganet> yigal: hwo come i have to disable ipv6?
[08:43] <yigal> Coldprn:did u get my im?
[08:43] <geekytrent> tunganet: most likely your service provider doesn't use ipv6 yet, and every time you try to connect to something, it tries to use that protocol first
[08:43] <comodo> can someone tell me a good burning program for ubuntu
[08:43] <EbilPhish> Is there a way to find what package owns a file?
[08:43] <tunganet> geekytrent: okay, how do i fix it
[08:43] <Coldopm> Yigal, nope
[08:43] <EbilPhish> comodo: k3b
[08:43] <tunganet> geekytrent: did this just happen recently?
[08:43] <comodo> thanks
[08:43] <geekytrent> tunganet: no, it's been like this for a long time now
[08:43] <tunganet> geekytrent: where do i disable it =\
[08:44] <EbilPhish> comodo: or gnomebaker, nautilus will also burn cds fine if its just making basic data discs
[08:44] <yigal> Coldprn: can u read the xorg log and tell me where it seams to mess up
[08:44] <geekytrent> tunganet: here ya go: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4?highlight=%28ipv6%29
[08:44] <comodo> is there anyway to tell wich one burns faster?
[08:44] <Coldopm> Yigal I get the following
[08:44] <yigal> coldprn: its usually long and messy but there will be a place where it will say "fatal error"
[08:44] <tunganet> geekytrent: i think my linux experience is going to end soon
[08:44] <yigal> coldprn: or something like this
[08:45] <EbilPhish> comodo: They should all be the same speed, it depends on your burners speed. Just make sure they are set to use the maximum avilable speed
[08:45] <geekytrent> tunganet: sorry to hear that.
[08:45] <yigal> tunganet: there is a wiki on it
[08:45] <yigal> tunganet: ipv6
[08:45] <comodo> ok
[08:45] <tunganet> yigal: yes thanks
[08:45] <EbilPhish> comodo: Also on-the-fly burning can be faster than files>iso>burning
[08:45] <comodo> i like how in ubuntu you can just right click to burn isos i deal with isos alot so thats a blessing
[08:45] <yigal> tunganet: good, don't give up it gets easier
[08:45] <jedidor> anyone know how to get extended desktop working with nvidia ?
[08:45] <tunganet> Authentication Rejected,
[08:46] <tunganet> yigal: i've been using ubuntu for the past... 3-5 weeks and problems kept coming =[
[08:46] <hed2000> i can not dual mon with nvidia alsa
[08:46] <Coldopm> Yigal, i810 no video bios modes for depths chosen....(ee) Screens found but none have usable configuration...(ee) i810 no matching device section for the instance (busID PCI :0:2:1)
[08:46] <Mugsy> someone needs to help me with my video problems, I have been trying to get ubuntu to work for the past 3 days and I'm starting to get a little pissed off
[08:46] <Coldopm> Yigal Fatal server eror no screens found
[08:47] <mcfrosty> Trying to setup up NdisWrapper in Kbuntu. Trying to follow guides but nothing is working.
[08:47] <tunganet> geekytrent: why is it that, my internet applications were working perfectly before, and now it seems dead?
[08:47] <yigal> Coldoprn: try vesa
[08:47] <yigal> Coldoprn: as a driver
[08:47] <Coldopm> Mugsy try here first http://wiki.x.org
[08:47] <comodo> yea i went out and baught a 17" monitor from my buddy to run dual monitors but i need a dvi to vga converter i went to staples but there to expensive there when you can go on newegg and get one for like 2 bucks when at staples there almost 30
[08:47] <Coldopm> yigal, I can't load into my system because it won't load xserv
[08:47] <geekytrent> tunganet: i don't know
[08:48] <yigal> Coldoprn: have you looked over what your card needs?
[08:48] <tunganet> geekytrent: lol, my linux box is so messed after i woke up from my nap =[
[08:48] <yigal> Coldprn: I mean what driver
[08:48] <geekytrent> tunganet: you might just have isp issues also, or modem issues
[08:48] <scott_> ist
[08:48] <Coldopm> no, it is onboard intel...I swear I had it working previously with i810
[08:49] <tunganet> geekytrent: my other computers are running fine
[08:49] <yigal> Coldoprn: no Beryl?
[08:49] <Mugsy> Coldopm: that didn't help me at all
[08:49] <Coldopm> yigal, to the best of my knowledge those are generic drivers for most cards no?>
[08:49] <scott_> Does anyone know the name of that little piece of software that monitors the TCP stream of the network the comp is on for images and pulls them out and displays them in a nice little window?  I cant recall the name, its very simple, open source.......arg
[08:50] <Coldopm> Mugsy do you have the best drivers installed for your card?
[08:50] <yigal> Coldoprn: yes the idea is to load your Gnome setup with a weak generic driver that will work at least to begin things
[08:50] <geekytrent> tunganet: ah ok...have you tried pulling down the connection and bringing it back up to see if that fixes the issue?
[08:50] <tunganet> geekytrent: did, and nope my linux is the only one having problems
[08:50] <gansinho> jed
[08:50] <gansinho> hello, I'm not able to take the pictures in my digital camera anymore, the system recognizes it, but does not mount
[08:50] <lkthomas> guys
[08:50] <yigal> Coldprn: but now I have further info that tells me you had a work x environment a little while ago
[08:50] <Mugsy> Coldopm: I have a GeForce 7800 GT, I installed in OEM mode and I can log in, but when I do there is some pop-up box that I can't see completely and I can't do anything
[08:50] <lkthomas> is there have any docs tell me how to config software RAID 1
[08:50] <geekytrent> tunganet: no, i meant this command:    sudo ifconfig eth0 down   sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[08:51] <Coldopm> Yigal: I can't get onto the net to update as I can't load x serv at all, my notebook is a paperweight right now...
[08:51] <yigal> Coldprn: not true, you have the command line
[08:51] <tunganet> geekytrent: i will try that after my software updates, thanks. I'll get back to you in approx. 5 minutes
[08:51] <geekytrent> tunganet: what that will do is take down your connection, and then bring your connection back up from the computer
[08:51] <Coldopm> Mugsy: Try booting with cd in drive again and select the VGA option at the botom to boost your resolution
[08:51] <yigal> Coldprn: do you have your live CD?
[08:51] <geekytrent> tunganet: ok
[08:51] <tunganet> geekytrent: is that one line?
[08:51] <Coldopm> Yigal: I do, however I have no idea what commands to use
[08:51] <Coldopm> Yigal : yes
[08:52] <Mugsy> Coldopm: what do I set my resolution to?
[08:52] <yigal> Coldprn: please type "sudo apt-get update" in a terminal
[08:52] <Coldopm> Mugsy: I would go as high as it allows you to
[08:52] <geekytrent> tunganet: i separated the 2 different commands the first one ends at down...and yes, that is one whole line
[08:52] <tunganet> geekytrent: aright
[08:53] <geekytrent> tunganet: run the first one, press enter, then the second, press enter
[08:53] <yigal> Coldprn: my reasoning is as follows. If the x server worked for you before it probably doesn't due to upgrades
[08:53] <Coldopm> Yigal: When I leave the details it says X server now disabled Restart GDM when it is configured properly
[08:53] <jedidor> anyone know how to setup the extended desktop with nvidia?
[08:53] <tunganet> geekytrent: understood
[08:53] <yigal> fine, just hit Ctr+Alt+F1
[08:53] <Coldopm> Yigal, I removed it and installed windows....this is a brand new reinstall
[08:53] <geekytrent> tunganet: i'll bbiaf, gonna smoke
[08:54] <yigal> Coldoprn: Ctrl+Alt+F1
[08:54] <tunganet> geekytrent: alright
[08:54] <Coldopm> yigal: OK
[08:54] <jerkface03> Where do I go to get boot logs?
[08:54] <Coldopm> at cmd line
[08:54] <EbilPhish> jerkface03: 'dmesg' or /var/log/messages
[08:55] <yigal> Coldoprn: How did you install Ubuntu? 7.04 or 6.10?, to get to command line hit the above sequence Ctrl+Alt+F1
[08:55] <__hase> Is there some reason I time out every time I try to request a key from keyserver hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net, or does that happen to everyone?
[08:55] <yigal> Coldprn: did you use safe graphics mode for the live CD?
[08:55] <Coldopm> Yigal 6.10 alternate
[08:56] <ahorn> hello, how can i run two mysql-servers at ubuntu? does any know a howto?
[08:56] <yigal> Coldoprn: my suggestions are use the live CD to get on to the internet.  Then look up what you need to do for your graphics card to get xorg working.  That is you need to edit your xorg.conf file.  Is this possible?
[08:56] <Coldopm> Yigal I did the update it says some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead...I dont have it online if that matters?
[08:57] <Coldopm> Yigal, the live cd won't run because I can't boot x serv, so therefore I have to install in text
[08:57] <yigal> coldprn: What am I talking about.  you are online.
[08:58] <kintaro0e> hi guys..what do i need to install so that i can play .mov files
[08:58] <Coldopm> this computer is yeah, desktop never had any problems
[08:58] <yigal> Coldoprn: you had luck installing though, you were using Gnome on your laptop
[08:58] <lkthomas>  what's diff between dmraid and mdadm ?
[08:58] <yigal> coldoprn: yes?
[08:58] <Coldopm> Was, I think I ran 6.06 and then updated, but I can't get Dapper to run anymore either ;(
[08:58] <kkd_> Can anyone help me to install my all in one laser printer canon mf5730 ? Ubuntu recognize it but the driver does not exist !
[08:59] <yigal> Coldoprn: how are you connecting to the internet?  Can you use a wired, ethernet?
[08:59] <Unfrgiven_> kintaro0e: just open it in totem. it will then prompt you to download and install the latest codecs - this is a largely automatic process
[08:59] <bicycledaave> kkd_:are you using CUPS?
[08:59] <Coldopm> still had some driver issues when I was running it before thats it why I put windows back on, I am Just fed up with MS
[09:00] <Coldopm> Yigal, I am talking to you on my desktop, No hub or router, I just switch cables when I need to
[09:00] <cables> Coldopm, you switch who? :)
[09:00] <kingcobra> hello
[09:00] <yigal> Coldoprn: so you can connect your laptop to internet with an ethernet
[09:01] <yigal> Coldprn: please do that and boot up
[09:01] <bitwiseshiftleft> has anyone here tried installing feisty on a RAID?
[09:01] <kintaro0e> Unfrgiven_: ah..i see.but do you know what are this packages?
[09:01] <bitwiseshiftleft> because I tried, and it doesn't boot after
[09:01] <Coldopm> if I need to yes, you figure if I run sudo apt-get update with net plugged in?
[09:01] <Coldopm> Yigal^
[09:01] <kkd_> bicycledaave: you are talking in a lunguage i dont really understand. linux is very new for me. what i have is  system->preferences->printing   there i can install my printer.
[09:02] <Mugwump09> Coldopm: changing resolution didn't work, I think there was a misunderstanding, it doesn't cut off on the screen, but it's fragmented and stuff
[09:02] <kingcobra> does anybody know why azureus would fail to initialise ssdp
[09:02] <Flannel> bitwiseshiftleft: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support, not here.  Thanks.
[09:02] <Coldopm> Kingcobra, r u using a router?
[09:03] <kingcobra> yes Coldopm
[09:03] <yigal> Coldprn: how do you connect to the internet on your laptop?
[09:03] <yigal> does anyone use ooimpress?
[09:03] <Coldopm> Yigal I can plug it in and reboot modem and probably get online....
[09:03] <yigal> Coldoprn: please do this
[09:03] <Unfrgiven> kintaro0e: gstreamer-plugins-*
[09:03] <bicycledaave> kkd_:sorry for that.maybe you can try to visit http://127.0.0.1:631/  and follow the instruction there, good luck
[09:04] <kkd_> thanks
[09:04] <Coldopm> Kingcobra you need to set the allow on your router settings to allow Azeurus to communicate through an open port
[09:04] <kingcobra> surely upnp can work in ubuntu though Coldopm
[09:05] <kintaro0e> Unfrgiven: thanks
[09:05] <Unfrgiven> kintaro0e: np
[09:05] <Coldopm> Yeah, you would think so...but I had mega issues with the NAT and my firewall in my router and azuerus
[09:05] <Coldopm> yigal do what?
[09:06] <yigal> Coldoprn: I have to go to sleep.  I have a lot of work to do.

[09:06] <Coldopm> Yigal try to run update woth rj45 plugged into notebook?
[09:06] <yigal> Coldoprn: you have to change your xorg.conf so that your laptop works with GNOME
[09:06] <geekytrent> so, what directory does the default bittorrent app use for it's torrents for uploading?
[09:06] <kingcobra> Coldopm, any idea why it cant run ssdp
[09:06] <Coldopm> yigal well thanks for trying
[09:06] <yigal> Coldoprn: there are many ways to do this
[09:06] <HipotermiA> cual es el comando para ver los procesos
[09:06] <yigal> Coldoprn: have you looked on the forums yet?
[09:06] <Coldopm> yigal is there an easy way to do it from Cmd prompt?

[09:08] <eth01> kk thnks
[09:09] <Shaba1>  resized my windows ntsf partition to clear up 11.2gb of unallocated space
[09:09] <harpette> Shaba1: irc.gnome.org #gparted
[09:09] <Shaba1> now what?
[09:09] <Flannel> Shaba1: now... install ubuntu
[09:09] <Flannel> Shaba1: in the install process, you'll partition and format that freespace for Ubuntu to use it
[09:09] <Shaba1> wait I am not at that point yet
[09:10] <Sulo_Seppa> HARDCORE
[09:10] <Shaba1> I am installing xubuntu
[09:10] <Coldopm> Kingcobra did that work for you?
[09:10] <Shaba1> and I have got the gparted screen up
[09:10] <Shaba1> now what
[09:10] <Flannel> Shaba1: eh?  What?  You already shrunk NTFS, right?  Then the next step is to pop in the install CD
[09:10] <Flannel> Shaba1: or, whatever.  Start the install.
[09:10] <Shaba1> I am at that point
[09:10] <harpette> Shaba1: if your drive is already partitioned as you want, skip this step
[09:11] <Balachmar> How can I check what the expiry date is of a user, when this has been set with usermod?
[09:11] <Flannel> Shaba1: let the installer create the ubuntu partition in the freespace you just cleared.
[09:11] <Shaba1> HOW
[09:11] <Shaba1> everbody keeps saying do this and do that
[09:11] <Shaba1> but not HOW
[09:11] <Flannel> Shaba1: Start the installer.
[09:11] <kingcobra> ill try now, but before in windows azureus when i didnt use upnp usually there was just one inbound connection ip address my router instead of loads like it should be Coldopm
[09:11] <Shaba1> Flannel I told you I already have
[09:12] <harpette> Shaba1: we don't have the installation screen in front of us at present
[09:12] <Shaba1> I am at the point in the installwe where the gparted scren is
[09:12] <Coldopm> Anyone else getting error messages when you tried to install ekiga?
[09:12] <Flannel> Shaba1: no, you said you weren't there yet.  Anyway, how are you installing? ok, liveCD.
[09:12] <Shaba1> I have clicked manual install
[09:12] <Shaba1> yes
[09:13] <rapax> xit
[09:13] <harpette> is there a pkg for the flash plugin, or do i get it from what firefox proposes?
[09:13] <Shaba1> manual partition that is
[09:13] <Coldopm> Harpette go with firefox
[09:13] <harpette> Coldopm: TY
[09:13] <Coldopm> Harpette work fine
[09:13] <Coldopm> np
[09:14] <Flannel> Shaba1: create a new ext3 partition in that freespace.  You'll want to create two, if you want a swap partition.
[09:14] <Shaba1> Ok
[09:14] <Shaba1> but whever I choose linux saw
[09:14] <Shaba1> linux swap
[09:14] <Shaba1> it makes it a primary partition instead of extened
[09:14] <dougb> i'm having a problem ripping MP3's.  the profile is made and enabled, but it still isn't appearing as an option in sound juicer
[09:15] <harpette> Any recommendations for a calendar app(let)?
[09:15] <Shaba1> and that is suppsed to be the partition that the machine boots from
[09:15] <Coldopm> Harpette do you use synaptic or terminal?
[09:15] <Flannel> Shaba1: you can have a couple (four) Primary partitions,
[09:15] <harpette> Shaba1: you need a primary partition on the disk before you can create an extended partition
[09:16] <harpette> Coldopm: either
[09:16] <gabriel82> I'm trying to upgrade to 7.04 with gksu update-manager -c -d, but it doesn't work
[09:16] <Coldopm> Harpette: Try typing calender into synaptic search?
[09:16] <Shaba1> that should be the window ntfs partition that I shrunk should it now
[09:16] <Shaba1> not
[09:16] <harpette> Coldopm: by "terminal" you meant apt-get at the cmd line?
[09:17] <anti> hey
[09:17] <Flannel> gabriel82: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support.  But, I believe it's just -d
[09:17] <anti> how do I start Ubuntu in CLI??? so X doesnt start??
[09:17] <HipotermiA> :P
[09:17] <gabriel82> Flannel: thanks
[09:17] <anti> ??
[09:17] <harpette> Coldopm: i'm sure i can locate some, i'm wondering which is favorite
[09:17] <Flannel> Shaba1: what should be?  You can have a few primary partitions.
[09:17] <Coldopm> Harpette Yes but won't do you much good if you don't know the name of the software so searching with synaptic will probably yeild better results ;p
[09:17] <Flannel> anti: ctrl-alt-f1 should get you a TTY
[09:17] <anti> Hey guys can someoen help me?
[09:17] <anti> ya
[09:17] <anti> i know it will get me a TTY
[09:18] <anti> but i am trying to update a driver
[09:18] <Flannel> anti: so, thats... ubuntu in a CLI.
[09:18] <Coldopm> Harpette I use the one in Evolution...
[09:18] <anti> and cant be running X while i'm doing
[09:18] <Shaba1> ok I was reading and something I read said that the primary partion is that one the machines looks to boot from
[09:18] <mainer> anti: /etc/inittab  change the 5 to a 3
[09:18] <Flannel> Shaba1: no, that's the "active" partition.
[09:18] <anti> ya
[09:18] <anti> thanks dude
[09:18] <anti> i forgot
[09:18] <mainer> sure
[09:19] <Shaba1> ok well Flannel will grub do that
[09:19] <Flannel> Shaba1: will grub do what?  Grub will boot to hda2, yes.
[09:19] <harpette> Coldopm: yes i saw that there's one there, but when i launched Evolution it told me it you ask me about my e-mail address and such; i don't want it to go download my mail, i use a webmail interface
[09:20] <anti> flannel i am running 6.10 and in my etc i dont have an inittab but i have an init.d and an iftab, what one do you think it is if either of them?
[09:20] <mtholdenss> anyone here have a archive to all the wallpapers released with every ubuntu releasE?
[09:20] <Shaba1> create the active partition flannel
[09:20] <Shaba1> ??
[09:20] <Shaba1> like you said
[09:21] <Flannel> Shaba1: make your linux partition your active one.
[09:21] <anti> anyone/?
[09:21] <Shaba1> why
[09:22] <Shaba1> I want the choice to boot into windows or linux
[09:22] <Flannel> anti: as of 6.10, Ubuntu uses upstart, which I'm not totally familiar with.
[09:22] <mcfrosty> Hi
[09:22] <Shaba1> mostly windows since I need that for work
[09:22] <Flannel> Shaba1: right, grub will give you that choice.  Grub is in your linux partition
[09:22] <anti> upstart?
[09:22] <anti> so there is no inittab?
[09:22] <Flannel> Shaba1: the windows bootloader doesn't play well with others.
[09:22] <Flannel> !upstart | anti
[09:22] <ubotu> anti: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[09:22] <Shaba1> Flannel you are saying like five different things
[09:22] <Flannel> anti: I don't believe inittab is in debian based systemsanyway.
[09:22] <Shaba1> I appreciate the help
[09:23] <Flannel> Shaba1: no, I'm not.
[09:23] <Shaba1> but I need a straight line apporach
[09:23] <kineticjab1984> shaba1: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Boot_from_Windows_Bootloader_(NTLDR)_and_why
[09:23] <Shaba1> I want 28gb for widows
[09:23] <Flannel> Shaba1: Make your linux partition your active partition.  You will still be able to boot into windows.
[09:23] <kineticjab1984> this uses grldr, which I find pretty simple
[09:23] <Shaba1> which I have resized already
[09:23] <mainer> anti: sorry not in ubuntu atm,try init 3 in the console
[09:23] <Shaba1> I have 11 gb of unallocated space
[09:24] <Shaba1> now how do I make that into linux space
[09:24] <Shaba1> and get a menu when I turn on the computer so I can choose between windows and linux?
[09:24] <Shaba1> Simple as that
[09:24] <Flannel> !enter | Shaba1

[09:34] <tunganet> i am going to pm you
[09:35] <harpette> tunganet: not proper etiquette: you're asupposed to ask your question, not ask to ask
[09:35] <tunganet> ok
[09:35] <harpette> tunganet: so, what is the pbm?
[09:35] <ant-> !pm even worse
[09:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pm even worse - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:35] <dougie> anyone here use FrostWire?
[09:35] <tunganet> i want to go back to windows because of these constant troubles i am going through for the past 3-5 weeks.
[09:36] <tunganet> but when i boot my system up with my windows disk it says my harddrive is not detected
[09:36] <harpette> tunganet: what troubles?
[09:36] <dougie> for some reason i can't close FrostWire after i open it
[09:36] <tunganet> i cannot install windows if it cannot detect my harddrive
[09:36] <tunganet> troubles..
[09:36] <tunganet> harpette: i cannot even go on gaim now
[09:36] <ant-> atleast ubuntu detects the harddrive :P
[09:36] <dougie> like when i click the x or go file and close it just minimizes
[09:37] <tunganet> harpette: i reinstalled a fresh new copy of ubuntu just 2 hours ago, and nothing seems to work stil..
[09:37] <dougie> ...get a new hard drive
[09:37] <tunganet> dougie: my harddrive is indeed new but the problem is , the port where it connects to the mother board, the primary one is broken
[09:37] <tunganet> dougie: so i am using the secondary one
[09:37] <harpette> tunganet: what happens when you try to launch Gaim?
[09:37] <dougie> ah
[09:37] <madman91> hey guys
[09:37] <anti> hey
[09:38] <ant-> harpette : you probly just have to set a jumper
[09:38] <tunganet> harpette: it runs, but cannot connect through
[09:38] <anti> thanks for your sugestions but the init 3 didnt dwork
[09:38] <anti> work
[09:38] <dougie> yeah i don't think windows allows a MBR on a secondary harddrive controller or something like that
[09:38] <madman91> i have an .avi .sub .idx files ... how do i merge them
[09:38] <madman91> or play them together
[09:38] <ant-> harpette : sorry i meant tunganet
[09:38] <tunganet> ant-: pardon me
[09:38] <tunganet> ant- how do i set a jumper, can you please help.
[09:39] <dougie> did the primary ata controller ever work?
[09:39] <ant-> tunganet : it would be written on your harddrive, or goto the manufacturers site
[09:39] <tunganet> harpette: the problem where it frustrates me is that i can connect to irc, but not gaim
[09:39] <harpette> tunganet: hard disk drives have jumpers to set them as drive number 1, or 2 on a cable
[09:39] <tunganet> ant-: my internet does not work on my linux
[09:39] <tunganet> harpette: can you elaborate more? i am really stupid when it comes to hardware
[09:39] <dougie> how are you connected to IRC?
[09:39] <ant-> tunganet : goto the page right now.
[09:40] <Smerity> Does anyone know where I'd initialise another X session at boot? Atm I have to "sudo X :1 -ac" before I can start a game in it
[09:40] <tunganet> dougie: that is the problem
[09:40] <tunganet> dougie: i can connect to irc, but nothing else works
[09:40] <dougie> hmm
[09:40] <tunganet> ant-: what page?
[09:40] <dougie> thats strange
[09:40] <tunganet> dougie: i have lost all the hopes, i just want to go back to windows now
[09:40] <ant-> tunganet : the manufacturers page
[09:40] <dougie> ....windows is horrible lol
[09:40] <tunganet> ant-: i do not have internet from my browser
[09:40] <Mugwump09> yeah, I need someone to actually fucking help me
[09:41] <tunganet> dougie: but i cannot do anything with my linux right now
[09:41] <dougie> everytime i get on a windows box now i get headaches
[09:41] <harpette> tunganet: are you using this system you're speaking of right now? To communicate with us now?
[09:41] <ant-> tunganet : but irc works?
[09:41] <tunganet> ant-: yes
[09:41] <tunganet> harpette: xchat gnome works, browser doesnt, gaim doesnt
[09:41] <dougie> windows should be shipped with a big box of asprin
[09:41] <mainer> ant-: hmm try telinit 3
[09:41] <Mugwump09> can I just talk to someone 1 on 1?
[09:42] <tunganet> dougie: i know linux is superior, but i merely cannot do anything with my linux right now.
[09:42] <dougie> hmm
[09:42] <harpette> Mugwump09: you're supposed to ask your question here, and not PM people
[09:42] <Smerity> Mugwump09, just throw out your question - and try not to insult those asking for help
[09:42] <tunganet> harpette: can you help me on the jumper thing you mentioned?
[09:42] <mainer> anti: sorry 3am here try telinit 3
[09:43] <Mugwump09> I've asked my question about 3 times, but no one helps me
[09:43] <harpette> Mugwump09: missed it. ask again?
[09:43] <bambie> winblows
[09:43] <Smerity> Mugwump09, where exactly?
[09:43] <tunganet> haha bambie :)
[09:43] <bambie> lol
[09:43] <Mugwump09> a while ago
[09:43] <Smerity> lol, while ago is before I was here
[09:43] <bambie> make is 4th
[09:43] <tunganet> ant-: you there mate?
[09:44] <ant-> tunganet : look on the side of your harddrive, or if its new it shoulda came with docs i assume
[09:44] <anti> is 3 cli mode?
[09:44] <anti> whats 2?
[09:44] <Smerity> Mugwump09, ask and hope, that's the best you can do on a public forum like this - these people are just here of their own free will - but ask again, I'll try and help (though I can't promise expertise in whatever issue you have)
[09:44] <anti> i was gonna make an inittab file in etc and put id:2:initdefault: in it
[09:45] <anti> is 2 cli mode?
[09:45] <tunganet> ant-: what do i do?
[09:45] <mainer> 3 is cli,single user=1 =no daemons running at all,rescue mode
[09:45] <ant-> tunganet : i just told you
[09:45] <Mugwump09> well, my display messes up whenever I log in, I installed with in OEM mode, it plays the song then it looks like a window tries to pop up
[09:45] <anti> ohhh ok
[09:45] <Mugwump09> but it's all fragmented
[09:45] <anti> so i should use id:3:initdefault:
[09:45] <ant-> anti : are you using dapper?
[09:45] <Smerity> Mugwump09, so basically it's a display issue? What graphics hardware do you have?
[09:45] <tunganet> ant-: docs = documents?
[09:45] <mainer> anti: yes,then reboot
[09:45] <anti> ya
[09:46] <Mugwump09> GeForce 7800 GT
[09:46] <harpette> Mugwump09: what's OEM mode?
[09:46] <Smerity> I was going to ask the same thing lol
[09:46] <ant-> tunganet : yes, itll tell you all about masters and slaves :)
[09:46] <Smerity> So did it work in the past and then just stop working, or did it immediately bugger up after install?
[09:46] <Mugwump09> idk, it was on the alternate disc
[09:46] <tunganet> anti: no sir, my new harddrive was replaced by the store where my old one was broken
[09:47] <tunganet> ant-:no sir, my new harddrive was replaced by the store where my old one was broken
[09:47] <tunganet> ant-: they merely replaced it, but did not give me any documents
[09:47] <Smerity> Mugwump09, looking up OEM, but So did it work in the past and then just stop working, or did it immediately bugger up after install?
[09:47] <Mugwump09> it hasn't run yet
[09:47] <mainer> tunganet: then check the hdd manufacturer's website
[09:48] <tunganet> mainer: i do not have internet through browser
[09:48] <odor> hi
[09:48] <odor> where can I find out my connection interface ? (ethernet ,pppoe,ppp)
[09:48] <Mugwump09> I haven't gotten it to run
[09:48] <odor> in witch file is stored ?
[09:48] <odor> without using the ifconfig command for example
[09:48] <Mugwump09> it's the same thing everytime I try to run
[09:48] <giskardd> nice, my brother printer is working in ubuntu
[09:48] <giskardd> tough job, but i finally got it working
[09:49] <anthony--> odor /proc/net i think
[09:49] <giskardd> and it shares nicely through samba too
[09:49] <tunganet> anthony--: is there anyway where i can learn about jumpers without docs?
[09:49] <odor> anthony--, thanks
[09:49] <Smerity> Mugwump09, first, using OEM for install is kinda strange lol unless you have a specific reason for it, but no matter - second is that chances are you have a funky driver trying to display, so can you go Alt+Cntrl+F(something) and get into a console?
[09:50] <Mugwump09> yeah I can, but what am I supposed to look for?
[09:50] <anthony--> tunganet : you could ask someone with the same hard drive i guess
[09:50] <tunganet> anthony--: um.. about the jumpers, is it done physically?
[09:50] <anthony--> tunganet : yes
[09:50] <tunganet> anthony--: okay thats tough
[09:51] <madman91> I have an .avi .sub and .idx .. i can watch the avi but how do i watch it with the subs?
[09:51] <anti> ya, well that didnt work creating an inttab
[09:51] <anthony--> tunganet : just take it back to the store and tell em you want windows back on it....
[09:51] <tunganet> anthony--: ahh, okay
[09:51] <tunganet> anthony--: and say goodbye to linux =[
[09:52] <anthony--> :(
[09:52] <Smerity> Mugwump09, first it'd be good to see what driver you're currently using for display, just need to remember where the config file for xorg is kept
[09:52] <bambie> tunganet need a hug?
[09:52] <bambie> :<
[09:52] <anti> what was the other sugestion on changing my runlevel on dappy???
[09:52] <tunganet> bambie: i <3 ubuntu
[09:52] <Smerity> Mugwump09, nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:52] <anthony--> tunganet : you couldnt get your browser to work at all?
[09:52] <bambie> but a new hdd and install it
[09:53] <tunganet> anthony--: sometimes it doesnt, but its slower than dial up
[09:53] <bambie> buy*
[09:53] <tunganet> bambie: my harddrive is new
[09:53] <tunganet> bambie: the port ON my motherboard is broken
[09:53] <MajorPayne> How can I lock my computer when I am away so that I have to type my password when I want to use it?
[09:53] <bambie> eeek.
[09:53] <tunganet> bambie: it is on a secondary port
[09:53] <anti> any ideas on how to change my runlevel?
[09:54] <Smerity> Mugwump09, and go down until you get to a section that goes like "Section "Device"  Indentifier blah blah Driver "foo"" and tell me what the driver is
[09:54] <Mugwump09> ok, I will do that and come back
[09:54] <Mugwump09> thank you for helping me
[09:54] <tunganet> anthony--: can you give me a short and simple explaination about the jumper settings please?
[09:54] <Smerity> Mugwump09, no prob
[09:54] <tunganet> anthony--: i really need it
[09:55] <anthony--> tunganet : their called controllers not ports, fyi
[09:55] <tunganet> anthony--: sorry :P
[09:55] <anthony--> tunganet : on the back of your harddrive will be a set of pins, probly 6-8, the jumper connects two together
[09:56] <tunganet> anthony--: is jumper the red cable ?
[09:56] <anthony--> tunganet : for the hd to be recognized as a master it has to have a specific two pins "jumped"
[09:56] <MajorPayne> How can I lock my computer when I am away so that I have to type my password when I want to use it?
[09:57] <anthony--> tunganet : jumper is a little plastic piece that connects two pins
[09:57] <m1r0> anyone know how to change boot screen ?
[09:57] <anti> hey does anyone know about /etc/event.d
[09:57] <anti> ??
[09:57] <harpette> Smerity: i'm looking into "services-admin" for stopping GDM, since he doesn't have a GUI, but no man page, and "services-admin --help" doesn't help much so far
[09:57] <tunganet> anthony--: i do believe i have that, connected from my secondary controller to my only harddrive.
[09:57] <persept> anyone know of an app that will follow random links on a page every second
[09:58] <anthony--> tunganet : you have to have that, as far as i know every hd has a jumper in the back
[09:58] <Smerity> harpette, sorry? this in relation to Mugwhump?
[09:58] <tunganet> anthony--: but my system is not regonizing it as a harddrive?
[09:58] <harpette> Smerity: yes
[09:58] <anthony--> tunganet : a jumper is not a cable of any kind
[09:59] <tunganet> anthony--: a cable is that red piece of plastic with black on each end?
[09:59] <anti> hey
[09:59] <anti> anyone know??
[09:59] <tabman> I'm looking for a download accelerator/manager for linux ?
[09:59] <harpette> Smerity: i figure he should stop X and run the Xorg -configure, or similar
[09:59] <Smerity> harpette, afaik he said it was only a display issue? frazzled windows? i assumed it was an issue with the default driver havnig some fundamental incompatibility with his graphics card
[09:59] <tunganet> anthony--: jumper*
[09:59] <robertlee> hello, how do i find out what version of ubuntu i am using
[09:59] <harpette> Smerity: but what to do then ?
[10:00] <anthony--> tunganet : a cable is a piece of wire, a jumper is a little plastice piece about the size of an m&m
[10:00] <macd> robertlee, in a console you can "cat /etc/lsb-release"
[10:00] <Smerity> harpette, possible - just want to see - I'm we can get him straight onto the nvidia driver (binary) then the graphics card should be set straight
[10:00] <tunganet> anthony--: oh dear god, i was wrong the whole time
[10:00] <robertlee> thanx macd
[10:00] <anthony--> tunganet : yes, you just gotta look at some pictures or something.
[10:00] <tunganet> anthony--: so i wouldn't have a jumper unless i go and buy one right?
[10:01] <Mugwump09> drive was "nv"
[10:01] <anthony--> tunganet : you have a jumper, its how the hd is set to be a master or a slave
[10:01] <Mugwump09> which means nvidia, I'm guessing
[10:01] <Mugwump09> driver*
[10:01] <anthony--> tunganet : every hd has a jumper (as far as i know)
[10:01] <tunganet> anthony--: so what i do is.. take it out?
[10:01] <Smerity> Mugwump09, it's the opensource nvidia driver, let me just check it's compatibility
[10:02] <tunganet> anthony--: i am really confused, sorry
[10:02] <anthony--> tunganet : no you have to set the jumper the right way
[10:02] <anthony--> tunganet : obviously your only option is to take it back and have the store do it, and maybe show you
[10:02] <AmyRose> !nvidia
[10:02] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:02] <tw200> good morning guys, how do i run aptitude in advanced mode?
[10:02] <tunganet> anthony--: damnit.. =[
[10:03] <tunganet> anthony--: a-power i go
[10:03] <anthony--> tunganet : or you can try to get your browser working under ubuntu.. i assume that is the only reason you want to go back to windows.
[10:04] <Smerity> WOOT! Mugwump09 and harpette, think I got it - "
[10:04] <Smerity> So I did some browsing around and I found the solution (that worked for me, anyway). Apparently it's a problem with the graphics card. The 7800 has some incompatibility with the basic nvidia driver that comes on the CD. Thus, to boot from the live CD..."
[10:04] <tunganet> anthony--: the internet on this comp doesnt work .. i cannot log onto gaim, my internet in my browser is extremely slow or not working
[10:04] <Mugwump09> OH EM GEE!
[10:04] <Smerity> Have a read - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=379807
[10:04] <Mugwump09> thank you!
[10:05] <ssinghi> i installed ubuntu dapper, but it doesn't detect the gigabit ethernet card, one solution which i have found is upgrading the kernel, is it possible for me to just download the kernel package using windows, and then install it in dapper? and once the internet starts working do a proper upgrade.
[10:05] <Spike411> Hi! I hope you can give me a hint (I've tried searching the Web using Google, but without any luck) -- how can I make Gnome/Metacity to remember workspaces for apps?
[10:05] <geekytrent> tunganet: you are not able to ping google?
[10:05] <Smerity> Mugwump09, that seems just to replace it with the vega driver, which is fine, but won't have all the full hardware accleration support - I'd suggest just running with that to get Linux up and going, then move to the binary Nvidia driver once that's up
[10:05] <macd> ssinghi, you can download all the .debs required from packages.ubuntu.com then copy them over and use dpkg to install them
[10:05] <anthony--> hes able to chat on irc...
[10:05] <tunganet> geekytrent: i can go to google, but i typed jumper and images
[10:05] <harpette> tunganet: install a text-only browser, like elinks
[10:05] <tunganet> geekytrent: it just doesnt connect at all
[10:06] <tunganet> harpette: i want my comp to be normal..
[10:06] <harpette> tunganet: ...and run it in a terminal window
[10:06] <geekytrent> tunganet: and did you switch the ipv6 settings in firefox?
[10:06] <tunganet> geekytrent: yes
[10:06] <Smerity> Mugwump09, oh haha - it actually tells you to install the binary nvidia later - excellent - print that off and run through =] 
[10:06] <geekytrent> hmm
[10:06] <harpette> tunganet: for that you have to go browse some doc on the net
[10:06] <ssinghi> macd: thanks, can i bypass edgy and directly download feisty debs?
[10:06] <tunganet> harpette: my computer was perfectly fine this morning, then it became a nightmare
[10:06] <cwillu> "/proc/fs/cifs"  What's the recommended way to set an option in here permenantly?
[10:06] <macd> ssinghi, not a good idea
[10:06] <harpette> tunganet: what did you do to mess it up so bad. i ask?
[10:07] <tunganet> harpette: absolutely nothing
[10:07] <harpette> tunganet: hmmm
[10:07] <tunganet> harpette: i took a nap, i woke up, nothing works.
[10:07] <daseeb> hello... mhm... I developed an application that needs to link with option "-lgcc_s" but in /lib there is only a /lib/libgcc_s.so.1. why doesn't the symlink to libgcc_s.so exist? how should I properly set this up to share my sourcecode and others can compile it easily?
[10:07] <tabman> I'm looking for a download accelerator/manager for linux ?
[10:07] <benplaut> The family computer is running Dapper (updated about a month ago, not too often), and it's having a bit of trouble.  Sometimes, apps just don't open.  I can't get any command line output because when you open them from a term (which you have to start up with a tty), they work fine!  In addition, sometimes they open about ten minutes after the fact, and everything works from then on.  I was thinking that the loopback wasn't connected to 127.0.0.
[10:07] <benplaut> 1 (it is), or that dbus is screwed up.  Any advice?  I'm putting on edgy this summer, after a new hard drive and it goes LTS.
[10:07] <Smerity> Mugwump09, so basically, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change nv to nvidia then reboot
[10:08] <harpette> hey where's a good location in my filesystem to look for another noise for this Gaim thingy?
[10:08] <tunganet> anthony--: i now know what the jumper looks like, which pin is it supposed to be at?
[10:09] <arkadiuszsowinsk> hello
[10:09] <concept10> what media application plays .asf, .asx streams?
[10:09] <anthony--> tunganet : that is dependent on your hd
[10:09] <mEck0> whats the name of this icon-theme? http://img7.imageshack.us/my.php?image=2004_08_28_16_40_1600x1200.png
[10:09] <tunganet> anthony--: anyway where i can find out myself?
[10:09] <harpette> concept10: pbbly mplayer
[10:09] <Geoffrey2> could someone help me get the Unix Media Plugin set up to work with Timidity with Edgey?
[10:09] <arkadiuszsowinsk> polisch
[10:09] <anthony--> tunganet : the manufacturers website
[10:09] <cwillu> tunganet: it's usally labled
[10:09] <tunganet> anthony--: on the harddrive right?
[10:10] <cwillu> tunganet: top of the drive usually
[10:10] <tunganet> cwillu: the sticker thing?
[10:10] <ssinghi> macd: but finding out which all debs i'll need to download and doing so one by one will take lot of time, I just need to upgrade the kernel, so is it OK to just upgrade the kernel, i.e. linux-base?
[10:10] <cwillu> yep
[10:10] <tunganet> cwillu: okay.
[10:10] <concept10> crap why cant vlc or totem play these!!!
[10:10] <tunganet> cwillu: i'll get shut off comp and take a look
[10:10] <tunganet> brb for now =[
[10:11] <daseeb> no one can give me some hints on my library problem? is there another channel for development questions?

[10:22] <mikebeecham> Hi there...can anyone help me figure out how to force a 1280 x 1024 resolution?  I have just installed Ubuntu onto my machine and had some problems with configuring my X-Window
[10:22] <r4nge> !umask
[10:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about umask - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[10:23] <Flannel> MegaROM: that's not ubuntu, is it?
[10:23] <eshaase> is anyone having problems with firefox taking up way too much CPU? (i'm using feisty)
[10:24] <ant-> eshaase : firefox has always been a hog.
[10:24] <ferronica> ant: No
[10:24] <eshaase> ant-: well its really bad right now with 2.0
[10:24] <eshaase> ant-: signficantly more than 1.5
[10:24] <Flannel> eshaase: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support, they might know more about your particular issue.
[10:24] <ferronica> ant: i am using ubuntu
[10:24] <ferronica> ant: and i have nokia 7710
[10:25] <ant-> ferronica : why ask about a nokia in a ubuntu support channel?
[10:25] <eshaase> Flannel: ok, thanks
[10:25] <ferronica> ant: so where do i go
[10:25] <aidehua> Is upstart in use yet?
[10:25] <ferronica> ant: i am using ubuntu
[10:26] <ant-> ferronica : but your question is about nokia?
[10:26] <MegaROM> Flannel,  it is ubuntu
[10:26] <Ae01> Hi ,everbody
[10:26] <ferronica> ant: and ubuntu wont detect USB connectd
[10:26] <ant-> aidehua : since 6.10 (edgy)
[10:26] <Ae01> I'm need some help
[10:26] <MegaROM> edgy
[10:26] <TeReL50> anyone tried LinuxMCE yet?
[10:26] <Flannel> MegaROM: pluto-orbiter isn't in the Ubuntu repositories.
[10:26] <Ae01> some one  check English for me.
[10:26] <ferronica> ant: ok no nokia
[10:26] <RamiKassab> hey guys, is it typical of Ubuntu to take a lot of system memory
[10:26] <RamiKassab> ?
[10:26] <ant-> ferronica : oh i see
[10:26] <MegaROM> www.linuxmce.com ... special build for ubuntu
[10:26] <Ae01> http://oss.nn.nstda.or.th/index_en.php
[10:26] <MegaROM> allso the only build
[10:26] <ferronica> ant: ubuntu didnt detect some USB connected :(
[10:26] <Ae01> Please check for me
[10:27] <Flannel> MegaROM: Then you have an issue with them, not with ubuntu.  Sounds like a packaging issue with their repositories.
[10:27] <ant-> ferronica : does it detect it under lsusb?
[10:27] <ferronica> ant: dont know
[10:27] <anti> can anyone tell me how to kill X server in ubuntu 6.10
[10:27] <TeReL50> MegaROM:  i wanted to know if it's worth installing?
[10:27] <anti> like KILL x server
[10:27] <anti> not just cntrl alt f1
[10:27] <RamiKassab> i just rebooted the laptop and I have 1 gig of system memory, after running 'free -m', it states I only have 43 MB of mem free. Isn't that a bit odd? I am running Beryl but even with that it shouldn't take nearly that much memory
[10:27] <Flannel> RamiKassab: Linux tries to utilize all your RAM, since unused RAM is wasted RAM.  It'll load up stuff that you aren't necessarily usng (but might be in the future), to speed up stuff.  And of course, ditch that stuff when it needs it for real
[10:28] <ant-> ferronica : i dont know anything about your problem but i would start with finding out if its recognized at all
[10:28] <gary> I'm trying to run X-window application over ssh.  The problem is with my computer, but I don't know what is wrong.  The $DISPLAY variable on the host machine is set to myip:0.0 and I get the following error: Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded. Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly
[10:28] <gary> Any thoughts on what may be the cause of this issue?#
[10:28] <ferronica> ant: ok i just psted your command
[10:28] <anti> weill anyone please tell me how to kill X???? i
[10:28] <RamiKassab> ant-: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[10:29] <ferronica> ant: Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0421:041c Nokia Mobile Phones
[10:29] <RamiKassab> Flannel: so it's perfectly normal then? scared the living crap out of me!
[10:29] <Flannel> RamiKassab: yeah, perfectly normal.
[10:29] <ferronica> ant: but it dont mount it
[10:29] <anthony--> ferronica : that means it recognized it, thats a start now you have to mount it i assume
[10:29] <RamiKassab> Flannel: do you perhaps know how to see how much system memory is being allocated to an integrated graphics card like an Intel chipset one?
[10:29] <ferronica> ant: and i use Xgnokii
[10:29] <catxk> Flannel: is that what all the fuzz about firefox' ram usage on windows is about? :)
[10:30] <anthony--> ferronica : i dont know much about connecting cell phones, sorry
[10:30] <ferronica> anthony: ok how to mount,
[10:30] <ilpicaqu> yes,me too
[10:30] <RamiKassab> Flannel: I can't tell how much is being allocated using free because the total shows 994 and used + free equals 994
[10:30] <ferronica> anthony: manually
[10:30] <Flannel> catxk: no.  firefox has some issues with how it deals with memory.  Under certain conditions, it'll think it's normal to take up way too much.
[10:30] <RamiKassab> Flannel: and 1 GB of ram doesn't show up exactly was 1000 MB right?
[10:30] <RamiKassab> was = as
[10:31] <anthony--> ferronica : i would google your issue
[10:31] <RamiKassab> Flannel: or 1024 to be exact
[10:31] <Flannel> catxk: particularly in machines with >2GB RAM, it'll assume it's ok to take a good chunk of that.
[10:31] <catxk> Flannel:  roger that
[10:31] <Flannel> RamiKassab: If yours only shows 994 available, don't be worried.
[10:31] <ferronica> anthony: oh ok
[10:31] <lasking> who knows a language channel?
[10:31] <mkquist> hey anyone know, is dapper easier on older systems than edgy?
[10:31] <Flannel> mkquist: I imagine they're about the same.
[10:32] <ferronica> anthony: but when i connect my sony erricson mobile ubuntu mount it automatically
[10:32] <RamiKassab> Flannel: oh I know that, this is a separate thing because I'm curios as to how much video memory Beryl has to play with
[10:32] <mkquist> flannel - then what are the differences?
[10:32] <Flannel> mkquist: I don't believe there were any kernel changes that would signifigantly effect it.
[10:32] <RamiKassab> Flannel: 994 is more than enough
[10:32] <Flannel> mkquist: Edgy has newer versions of software
[10:32] <anthony--> ferronica : that is the problem, it should mount automatically
[10:32] <mkquist> flannel - thanx
[10:32] <lasking> and 7.04 can not install virtualbox
[10:32] <merc> that was easy..
[10:32] <ferronica> anthony: so how to check it where is the problem
[10:33] <anthony--> ferronica : see if someone else has had your problem.
[10:33] <RamiKassab> Flannel: I've tried googling all over for the answer but can't seem to find one. There's not a device manager or log file I can go through that tells me this?
[10:33] <anthony--> ferronica : because i haven't
[10:33] <ferronica> anthony: Is there any channel for mobil
[10:33] <Flannel> RamiKassab: No idea, sorry.  While it's not really related, you might ask in #beryl, they may know how to check for such things.
[10:33] <aidehua> anthony--: I hadn't noticed that upstart was in use.  I guess that's the point though :)
[10:33] <anthony--> ferronica : i dunno
[10:34] <ferronica> anthony: ok
[10:34] <RamiKassab> Flannel: ok thanks, will do
[10:34] <anthony--> aidehua : upstart.ubuntu.com
[10:34] <lasking> my god i need virtualbox
[10:34] <RamiKassab> Flannel: I find the guys to be very unhelpful in there though, but I'll give it a whirl
[10:34] <dale> On the 7.04 preview it mentions weather map, anyone tell me how to access it?
[10:34] <Flannel> RamiKassab: also see #ubuntu-effects.  Ubuntu's eyecandy channel
[10:34] <Flannel> dale: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support, thanks.
[10:34] <dale> OK
[10:35] <lasking> #ubuntu+1

[10:42] <selinuxium_> hi all, is it possible to do a traceroute to a particular port, I want to see if the local firewall is blocking port 3306
[10:43] <macd> selinuxium, you wouldnt use traceroute for that, just use curl.
[10:43] <macd> sorry, selinuxium_
[10:46] <Smerity> Mugwump09, no problem man, glad to be a help =] 
[10:46] <selinuxium_> macd, how would curl let me know where the trail stops?
[10:47] <macd> selinuxium_, you use curl to connect to the port, if it doesnt work then you know its blocked.
[10:48] <selinuxium_> macd, I can use telnet to do that! :) I know the port is blocked, but i want to find out if it is blocked at the local firewall, or the remote firewall
[10:48] <eck_> telnet is eeeeeeevil!
[10:49] <macd> selinuxium, then you need a point b/t the 2.

[11:05] <glyn> What's a good image program on Dapper that I can use to make a collage?
[11:06] <glyn> GIMP is way too retarded and complicated for me to use
[11:07] <jamescsy> a question, what's the pronunciation of "#"?
[11:07] <mwe> pound
[11:07] <glyn> does anyone know a good image program I can combine images into a collage?
[11:07] <mwe> jamescsy: pound
[11:07] <CheshireViking> jamescsy,   "hash"
[11:07] <glyn> good package
[11:07] <jamescsy> then, C#, how?
[11:08] <mkquist_> gimps not that hard, if u can use photoshop, u should be able to swing gimp
[11:08] <glyn> I don't like it..lol
[11:08] <wijnand> i use automatix and now, when updating edgy, it tells me there is an unauthenticated update for automatix... are simply all updates from non-ubuntu repositories unauthenticated now or is there something wrong with this particular one?
[11:08] <d31> hey guys, i've got a dual core 2 duo pc...just wondering what ubuntu image i should download?
[11:08] <mwe> but photshop is complicated too if you don't already know it I think
[11:08] <mkquist_> well yea, there is a learning curve
[11:08] <glyn> I'm looking for something I can just drag and paste pictures on
[11:08] <glyn> a simple program
[11:08] <h00t> can anyone tell me ... is it enough to install amule package or do i have to install amule GUI as well... also how do i reload the menu so the new apps appear
[11:09] <Fujitsu> wijnand: Upgrading after using Automatix almost guarantees a broken system.
[11:09] <h00t> wijnand: never use Automaix
[11:09] <mwe> !automatix
[11:09] <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
[11:09] <wijnand> Fujitsu: um.. i'm not upgrading to edgy.. i'm updating edgy
[11:09] <Fujitsu> Ah.
[11:09] <Fujitsu> Not so bad.
[11:09] <wijnand> good :)
[11:10] <Fujitsu> wijnand: You probably don't have the Automatix key installed (which is a good thing).
[11:10] <wijnand> i know for a fact i don't :)
[11:10] <wijnand> but i've been using it for a while and have never had this message
[11:11] <scv> hahaha
[11:12] <selinuxium_> What is the vnc deamon called? It is playing up on a remote machine and I would like to recycle it
[11:13] <MegaROM> Flannel,  so any clues for linuxmce for ubuntu ?
[11:13] <MegaROM> http://rafb.net/p/5qNz0R74.html
[11:13] <happytron> in the automatix faq: " Is Automatix2 safe ? Folks in #ubuntu on IRC keep telling me it isn't"
[11:13] <Odd_Bloke> Hey guys, I'm trying to install some updates but whenever I get to downloading them, I get a 'Could not connect to localhost:4001 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused)' error. Any ideas what I can do to remedy this?

[11:14] <sluimers> Hi, I'm trying to install sfark, but I can't seem to open the tar.gz file, it's not recognized as one
[11:15] <sluimers> Is there anyone who has sfark for me?
[11:15] <sluimers> that's not corrupt?
[11:16] <Stormx2> sluimers: Where did you get the tar.gz from
[11:17] <sluimers> http://melodymachine.com/sfark.htm
[11:17] <Stormx2> If it was off sourceforge, don't right click > download
[11:17] <sluimers> the linux one
[11:17] <mwe> happytron: I'm not sure but I think the unsafeness is mainly related to older versions of automatix.
[11:17] <Stormx2> You're right
[11:18] <Stormx2> It's corrupt.
[11:18] <sluimers> drat
[11:18] <happytron> hmm, well i don't really care... just think its funny that they specifically address this channel in their faq =] 
[11:19] <comodo> is there a program for ubuntu that allows you to burn avi to dvd formatt
[11:19] <sluimers> how is anyone supposed to decompress sfark files then?
[11:19] <mwe> happytron: well there is usually a very hostile attitude against automatix in here. Maybe that's why. I don't use it so I can't really argue if it's safe or not
[11:20] <sluimers> I can't find any other to download sfark
[11:20] <sluimers> other place
[11:21] <sluimers> There's gotta some other place to get sfark for linux right?
[11:21] <snez> Hello, I'm having problems recompiling the default Edgy kernel, specifically, I gen "undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail'" at linkage time, I was wondering if adding "CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-fno-stack-protector,)" to the Makefile is enough to solve the problem?

[11:24] <NotKevinBacon> hi guys, :-) Anyone know a nice simple VPN client for ubuntu?
[11:24] <CheshireViking> sluimers, i'm not on ubuntu at the minute, but (probably a draft suggestion) is it in the synaptic repositories?
[11:24] <sluimers> nope
[11:25] <sluimers> couldn't fid it in aptitude either
[11:25] <CheshireViking> sluimers, rite, thought it was worth a question anyway
[11:26] <discoloda> hello
[11:27] <discoloda> anyone know of a package that uses a text 2 speach system to 'read' RSS feeds?
[11:27] <NotKevinBacon> so no takers on the VPN question?
[11:27] <MrX|ubu> i got it working
[11:27] <MrX|ubu> ipv6 enabled was a pita
[11:28] <mwe> discoloda: do you know if such a thing even exists for linux?
[11:28] <happytron> discolada: that sounds pretty specific, but probably not hard to put together
[11:28] <glyn> anyone know some good graphic packages?
[11:28] <glyn> something I can make a collage with
[11:28] <MrX|ubu> having trouble installing packages
[11:29] <mwe> MrX|ubu: what kind of trouble?
[11:29] <busfahrer> Excuse me, does Ubuntu support LVM2 out of the box? (not for the root partition)
[11:29] <MrX|ubu> are there issues with the global package information atm
[11:29] <mwe> MrX|ubu: I think not
[11:29] <discoloda> mwe: not sure, theres a link on digg to a blog that had it, now its says 'page not found'
[11:30] <MrX|ubu> i have synaptic pkg manager going
[11:30] <MrX|ubu> and it just sits and does nothing saying "downloading package information"
[11:30] <mwe> discoloda: I see. I think it would be easy to put together, though, as the text to speech thing already exists
[11:31] <discoloda> yea
[11:31] <mwe> MrX|ubu: hmm
[11:31] <mwe> MrX|ubu: it works here. try closing synaptic and run sudo apt-get update from a terminal to see if you get more info
[11:32] <MrX|ubu> i tried that
[11:32] <mwe> MrX|ubu: and?
[11:32] <mwe> MrX|ubu: It just hangs at that point?
[11:32] <savvas> does anyone know if i can ask for ubuntu stickers shipment?
[11:32] <margo_citywalker> I need help in evolution. Can anyone please assist?
[11:33] <mwe> MrX|ubu: what repo does it hang at?
[11:33] <kingcobra> what is the easiest way to get the latest sun java
[11:33] <MrX|ubu> it sits there doing stuffall
[11:33] <mwe> !java | kingcobra
[11:33] <ubotu> kingcobra: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[11:33] <MrX|ubu> dont get any of tem
[11:33] <sipior> margo_citywalker: which environmental pressures require you to evolve?
[11:33] <MrX|ubu> they all timeout
[11:33] <MrX|ubu> or something
[11:33] <MrX|ubu> its an au server
[11:33] <MrX|ubu> maybe the au serve is dead
[11:34] <sipior> margo_citywalker: sorry, monday morning humour...
[11:34] <mwe> MrX|ubu: try arhchive.ubuntu.com instead. it should redirect you to the least busy mirror
[11:34] <margo_citywalker> sipior - you think you can solve my problem?
[11:34] <margo_citywalker> it's ok
[11:34] <sipior> margo_citywalker: only if you describe it first
[11:34] <MrX|ubu> Mwe : alologiez i dont know how
[11:34] <MrX|ubu> apologiez
[11:35] <margo_citywalker> i created an e-mail account in evolution. all settings are correct - I checked and double-checked
[11:35] <margo_citywalker> but it get "error sending password" error
[11:35] <margo_citywalker> and it won't log in to my mail server
[11:35] <sipior> margo_citywalker: which protocol?
[11:35] <mwe> MrX|ubu: settings somewhere or sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the au. part
[11:35] <margo_citywalker> however, I can use on online interface to log in just fine
[11:35] <margo_citywalker> pop
[11:36] <sipior> margo_citywalker: no ssl or anything like that?
[11:36] <margo_citywalker> nope
[11:36] <margo_citywalker> could the problem be, that my username is my e-mail address with the @ sign in it?
[11:36] <kingcobra> how do i enable the backports repository
[11:37] <Frogzoo> !easysource | kingcobra
[11:37] <ubotu> kingcobra: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[11:37] <margo_citywalker> sipior: I've searched online, but noone seems to have had an issue like this
[11:37] <sipior> margo_citywalker: it's possible. could be confusing evolution. @ is an awful choice for just that reason. any chance you can talk to your provider about that?
[11:37] <happytron> discolada:  here's one piece:  text2wave takes text as standard input and renders a sound file to stdout
[11:37] <happytron> discoloda*
[11:38] <margo_citywalker> sipior: not really. they're a big company with many users
[11:38] <margo_citywalker> sipior: any workarounds?
[11:38] <Frogzoo> margo_citywalker: so your email address is margo_citywalker@blah.com@blah.com   ?
[11:38] <sipior> margo_citywalker: you might try using # instead of @ and see if that still resolves
[11:38] <mneptok> margo_citywalker: are you 100% sure that the ISP does not require SSL/TLA/CRAM for authentication?
[11:38] <margo_citywalker> mneptok: positive
[11:39] <margo_citywalker> sipior: trying # now...
[11:39] <Frogzoo> margo_citywalker: I would lose the '@' from the username
[11:39] <comodo> anyone have a link for themes for gnome
[11:39] <sipior> margo_citywalker: actually, that might be a reason to switch providers...:)
[11:39] <Frogzoo> !themes
[11:39] <ubotu> Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[11:39] <margo_citywalker> sipior: :)
[11:39] <mneptok> comodo: art.gnome.org
[11:39] <sipior> plain old pop?  yeeesh.
[11:39] <MrX|ubu> i removed the au bit
[11:39] <MrX|ubu> same deal
[11:40] <mwe> MrX|ubu: sudo apt-get update
[11:40] <mwe> MrX|ubu: then retry
[11:40] <margo_citywalker> sipior: no luck. same error.
[11:40] <mwe> MrX|ubu: make sure to remove it everywhere too
[11:40] <margo_citywalker> sipior: corporate choice on the ISP, I can't really switch either :(
[11:40] <discoloda> happytron: i think i got a way: rawdog | html2text | festival
[11:40] <sipior> margo_citywalker: hmmm...tricky. you might try giving their tech support a call, as a last resort. there's a remote chance that they can help
[11:40] <happytron> nice
[11:41] <happytron> does it just talk to you as new things pop up in the feed?
[11:41] <margo_citywalker> frogzoo: my email is margo@blah.ee. and my username to log in is the same margo@blah.ee
[11:41] <MrX|ubu> still no love
[11:41] <sipior> margo_citywalker: you might at least explain the benefits of ssl and the like, along with why using @ in a login is not a great idea
[11:42] <MrX|ubu> not woorking
[11:42] <Frogzoo> margo_citywalker: depends on how they're setup - try both margo & margo@blah.ee
[11:42] <sipior> margo_citywalker: you sure it's not just margo to log in?
[11:42] <eXistenZ> Are the ntfs partitions in the HDD usually auto-mounted after installing ubuntu?
[11:42] <margo_citywalker> sipior: I previously used Outlook, and it was margo@blah.ee
[11:42] <margo_citywalker> sipior: same thing in the online interface
[11:42] <sipior> margo_citywalker: nevertheless, you might give it a shot
[11:43] <margo_citywalker> sipior: trying now...
[11:43] <busfahrer> Hi. I want to migrate my /home partition to a new hard drive. What would be the 'correct' way to copy the data over to the new volume so no settings as permissions etc are lost?
[11:44] <glyn> anyone know some good graphic packages?
[11:44] <glyn> something I can make a collage with
[11:44] <happytron> would be cool to render thousands of voices of things being said in real-time

[11:47] <sipior> SplashTK4: hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 and see if you get a virtual console, then hit Alt-F7 to get back
[11:48] <surak> The x keyboard layouts are stored differently from gnome's.
[11:48] <MrX|ubu> methinks there too many needing help nad not enough giving it
[11:48] <xine> hiiiiiii
[11:48] <SplashTK4> sipior, yeah i've done crtl+alt+f1 and it asks for username and pass, but anything I pout it says it's wrong :S

[11:49] <michup> my i ask for help with  Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller

[11:50] <glyn> I don't like gimp
[11:50] <glyn> it doesn't work for me
[11:50] <sipior> glyn: i think imagemagick has some auto-collage tools somewhere, have a look
[11:50] <surak> My problem is: the tilde key (~) is a composing key - however it is not configured as this in spanish layout. I can't do a "" on it.
[11:50] <glyn> alright
[11:50] <sipior> SplashTK4: can you log in remotely?
[11:51] <SplashTK4> sipior, meaning? lol
[11:51] <MrX|ubu> SHABA1 i know its wrong, how do i mkkae it right is the question
[11:51] <surak> I know how to fix it with xmodmap, however I don't on gnome.
[11:51] <sipior> SplashTK4: well, if you have another computer, can you connect to the problem machine via the network
[11:51] <skoenman> ok can someone help me im getting a funny error when triing to connect to my linux mail server
[11:51] <glyn> sipior:  how do I run imagemagick?  I have it but not sure how to run it
[11:51] <skoenman> The connection to the server has failed. Account: '192.168.1.71', Server: '192.168.1.71', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
[11:51] <Shaba1> I am talking about you telling me to use disk usage analysier MRX
[11:51] <SplashTK4> sipior, nah, don;t have another pc
[11:51] <skoenman> ) now i have setup postfix and dovecot
[11:51] <Shaba1> says I have 23.4gb free
[11:51] <skoenman> and both postfix and dovecot are running
[11:51] <sipior> glyn: man imagemagick lists all the individual programs
[11:51] <Shaba1> and 13.gb used
[11:52] <MrX|ubu> isnt that what you wanted?
[11:52] <xine> can, with vpn
[11:52] <Shaba1> well I only made the xubuntu partition 11.5 gb
[11:52] <michup> glxinfo says that direct rendering is okay, cedega tests failes into 3d acceleration, glxgears works okay while beryl is off, when its on it works but makes gaps, games like guild wars are booting into cedega with or without beryl but performance is very pure in both cases fps about 2 and gaps, so no acceleration
[11:52] <MrX|ubu> to know how much space you have left
[11:52] <Shaba1> the rest is window
[11:52] <mneptok> SplashTK4: login to a failsafe terminal and delete ~/.gconf
[11:52] <SplashTK4> mneptok, how do I do that, sorry I am noob
[11:52] <lasking>  who know virtualbox hot key?
[11:52] <mneptok> SplashTK4: look at the login screen
[11:53] <happytron> SplashTK4: sounds pretty funny if you try to login frmo a virtual console and it tells you your password is wrong... sure someone hasn't been screwing with your computer?
[11:53] <rehdon> Hi all
[11:53] <MrX|ubu> damn unix
[11:53] <sipior> SplashTK4: yeah, that's what i was thinking also :)
[11:53] <SplashTK4> happytron, yeah I am the only one who uses it
[11:53] <rehdon> I have had problems with the latest Ubuntus, anybody who can help?
[11:53] <MrX|ubu> when will there be a build in which shit just works.......
[11:53] <happytron> its possible to change the kernel boot parameters so that it will drop you into a root shell
[11:54] <happytron> if the password is actually the problem
[11:54] <kingcobra> rehdon #ubuntu+1
[11:54] <mneptok> MrX|ubu: works here. and please lose the profanity?
[11:54] <soundray_> happytron: recovery mode does that
[11:54] <MrX|ubu> i know it works
[11:54] <rehdon> kingcobra: sorry? is that a channel name?
[11:54] <iacopop> i have a problem with users-admin, the app that come with gnome-system-tools, when i click to manage group i cannot add an user to a group
[11:54] <SplashTK4> I was told to type sudo /edit/init.d/gdm restart, but couldn't cause it wouldn't accept username and pass
[11:55] <kingcobra> rehdon, yes
[11:55] <MrX|ubu> but for some reason it isnt on this sys
[11:55] <happytron> soundray_: ah, i usually do these things by hand =] 
[11:55] <sipior> mneptok: does shit count as profanity anymore? i think that might be a locale setting now
[11:55] <iacopop> do you know what is the problem?
[11:55] <mneptok> SplashTK4: unames/pwds are case sensitive
[11:55] <kingcobra> rehdon, theyll help with feisty
[11:55] <skoenman> anybody ???
[11:55] <rehdon> kingcobra: thank you
[11:55] <SplashTK4> mneptok, k I might try and few things and get back to yall :)
[11:55] <mneptok> sipior: would a ban count as a "yes?"
[11:55] <discoloda> happytron: well, im getting speech! now just to make a script for it! Woot!
[11:55] <soundray_> happytron: the options is 'single'
[11:55] <assasukasse> what is scim??? it popped up in my tray
[11:56] <sipior> mneptok: in a goose-stepping sort of way, i think it might :-)
[11:56] <Flannel> skoenman: Are you sure your server's IP is 192.168.1.71?
[11:56] <skoenman> yeah use it to connect on ssh
[11:56] <mneptok> sipior: i can now invoke Godwin's Law and win this debate by default. and i do so. ;)
[11:56] <MrX|ubu> frustration +++++++++++;
[11:56] <MrX|ubu> i all out ideas on this
[11:56] <Flannel> skoenman: and can you connect on port 110 with telnet?
[11:57] <MrX|ubu> its a real freesh insrtall
[11:57] <MrX|ubu> as in couple hrs
[11:57] <kingcobra> i still cant see sun-java6-jre in synaptic after backports is enabled can anybody help me install java 6
[11:57] <mneptok> kingcobra: update
[11:57] <glyn> sipior:Imagemagick is okay but is there something I can just copy and paste pictures into?
[11:57] <skoenman> on my server machien or client side???
[11:57] <MrX|ubu> at least synaptic work for you
[11:57] <happytron> 'single'? is that like setting init=/bin/bash?
[11:57] <MrX|ubu> at least synaptic work for you
[11:57] <MrX|ubu> at least synaptic work for you
[11:57] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: that looks like a DNS issue, looks like it thinks security.ubuntu.com i 1.0.0.0
[11:57] <MrX|ubu> thats what i thought
[11:57] <Flannel> skoenman: both?
[11:58] <skoenman> lets have a look
[11:58] <MrX|ubu> but i dunno how to fix it
[11:58] <sipior> glyn: not to my knowledge
[11:58] <Flannel> skoenman: Serverside (with ssh) will tell you if the service is running, clientisde (which will most likely fail) will tell you that it's still not connecting.  So, I guess clientside won't tell you much of anything you don't already know
[11:58] <eXistenZ> Flannel: Do you have ntfs partitions?
[11:59] <skoenman> k i get in on port 25 but not 110
[11:59] <skoenman> from client side
[11:59] <superman> How do I setup postfix to authenticate with mysql?
[11:59] <glyn> that's what I don't really like about linux, not very much developed software
[11:59] <sipior> glyn: well, use something else, i guess
[11:59] <happytron> hmm, i love imagemagick
[11:59] <mneptok> glyn: huh?
[11:59] <MrX|ubu> i know i got possible dns issues, but my net is right
[12:00] <MrX|ubu> surf webbies
[12:00] <skoenman> get connected on 25 but not 110
[12:00] <Flannel> skoenman: 110 is the default pop. so sounds like your server isn't actually running
[12:00] <MrX|ubu> etc
[12:00] <skoenman> hmm
[12:00] <Flannel> skoenman: 25 is SMTP, for sending mail.
[12:00] <MrX|ubu> but that not work
[12:00] <kingcobra> mneptok, update manager tells me im up to date
[12:00] <skoenman> o if i run the dovecot command
[12:00] <ferronica> how to mount USB device
[12:00] <mneptok> kingcobra: sudo apt-get update
[12:00] <snez> glyn: You mean not very much developed GUI based software
[12:00] <soundray_> glyn: that's just a nonsensical statement. There is plenty of highly developed software for Linux
[12:00] <rambo3> !diskmounter | ferronica
[12:00] <ubotu> ferronica: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[12:00] <MrX|ubu> is there
[12:00] <skoenman> */etc/init.d/dovecot start
[12:00] <MrX|ubu> i cant get nada
[12:00] <soundray_> glyn: and imagemagick is a prime example.
[12:01] <skoenman> if i run that it doesnt give any errors back
[12:01] <glyn> well, how come I can use a program in Windows and make a collage in 5 minutes instead of having to manually enter a bunch of commands etc
[12:01] <MrX|ubu> it dont matter how much of it is out there
[12:01] <Flannel> skoenman: check your configs, check your logs
[12:01] <MrX|ubu> if i cant get it
[12:01] <glyn> I love Linux, but I Just wish there was some more software
[12:01] <MrX|ubu> whats the point
[12:01] <skoenman> it says restarting dovecot and thats it
[12:01] <mneptok> glyn: because you've been using Windows for 15 years and Linux for a week?
[12:01] <kbrooks> glyn, collage ...
[12:01] <skoenman> k were do i check the logs again???
[12:01] <ferronica> rambo3: i want to mount USB device which is connected via my mobile phone
[12:01] <Flannel> skoenman: /var/log
[12:01] <rambo3> !universe  | glyn
[12:01] <ubotu> glyn: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[12:01] <soundray_> glyn: because you know what to use in Windows already. In Linux, you have to learn. So, the problem is not with Linux as such.
[12:01] <kbrooks> glyn, I have a lot of pictures, by the way
[12:01] <skoenman> k thanks
[12:02] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: Can you browse to security.ubuntu.com in a web browser?
[12:02] <soundray_> glyn: btw, I would use oodraw and it would take me 5 minutes max, too.
[12:02] <skoenman> wich one theres no dovecot log
[12:02] <sipior> glyn: "apt-cache search collage" turns up a program called metapixel, maybe apt-get install it and have a go?
[12:03] <kingcobra> mneptok, thanks very much
[12:03] <MrX|ubu> see security.ubuntu.com in browser
[12:03] <glyn> Thanks, maybe those will help
[12:03] <kbrooks> !info metapixel
[12:03] <MrX|ubu> i had ipv6 issues tho
[12:03] <ubotu> metapixel: generator for photomosaics. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.1-1 (edgy), package size 42 kB, installed size 148 kB
[12:03] <MrX|ubu> could that be part of prob?
[12:03] <kbrooks> glyn: i'll try it out and tell u
[12:03] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: Did you just edit the IPv6 stuff recently?
[12:03] <MrX|ubu> yes
[12:04] <MrX|ubu> and killed it in ff
[12:04] <rambo3> ferronica, sorry i dont know about mobile phones and ubuntu . what kind of phone is it?

[12:04] <ferronica> rambo3: its nokia 7710
[12:04] <skoenman> says permission denied
[12:04] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: as much as I hate to say it, you might try rebooting.  Could be that the IPv6 disabling hasn't taken affect in all stuff yet (since it was running pre-disable)
[12:04] <sipior> why doesn't linux have a program to write my papers for me??

[12:05] <soundray_> happytron: no, making blatantly stupid statements is.
[12:05] <skoenman> thats what it says
[12:05] <kbrooks> glyn: okay ...
[12:05] <MrX|ubu> i will try rebooot then
[12:06] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: alright, that's not it then.  But, the fact that you can get there in a browser is a bit odd.  Do you have any proxy settings or anything out of the ordinary like that?
[12:06] <kbrooks> glyn: explanation required.
[12:06] <MrX|ubu> flannel : no i dont
[12:06] <MrX|ubu> no proxy settings etc
[12:06] <MrX|ubu> not needed
[12:06] <kbrooks> glyn: I'll tallk in here...
[12:07] <skoenman> any ideas???
[12:07] <Steil> is there an easy way to convert my root partition from reiser 3 to reiser 4?
[12:07] <glyn> Hey, oodraw works fine thanks for the help
[12:07] <glyn> that's what I was looking for, not something I would have to manually configure via text
[12:07] <kbrooks> glyn: okay
[12:07] <kbrooks> :-)
[12:07] <kbrooks> all right, fine
[12:08] <MrX|ubu> i like the idea of linux cause miicrosoft sux
[12:08] <MrX|ubu> but its painful to get it running right
[12:08] <mkquist_> glyn - u dont know photoshop?
[12:08] <ubuntus> hi
[12:08] <happytron> hmm... if that's your reason for liking linux...
[12:08] <kbrooks> MrX|ubu, I don't think this channel is a bashing channel.
[12:09] <MrX|ubu> i not bashing
[12:09] <rambo3> and besides microsoft rules
[12:09] <soundray> MrX|ubu: yeah, last time I tried to install Windows it took me 3 hours. Testing feisty took less than 30minutes
[12:09] <MrX|ubu> its a real good idea
[12:09] <kbrooks> rambo3, bashing ..
[12:09] <MrX|ubu> but there is much difficulty
[12:09] <ubuntus> how to use useradd i dont know  im user files deleted please help me
[12:09] <kbrooks> MrX|ubu, linus did not create linux bc he hated ms
[12:10] <MrX|ubu> no thats one of the reasons i like it
[12:10] <kbrooks> MrX|ubu, huh?
[12:10] <MrX|ubu> and the fact is is customizable
[12:10] <MrX|ubu> windows will never be
[12:10] <ubuntus> how to use useradd i dont know  im user files deleted please help me
[12:10] <rambo3> MrX|ubu, stop with offtopic
[12:10] <MrX|ubu> i know that wasnt linus' motivation
[12:10] <sipior> MrX|ubu: preaching to the choir here, friend :)
[12:10] <kbrooks> MrX|ubu, i really think that this is getting into a flamewar. drop it or #ubuntu-offtopic please
[12:11] <chaoslynx> hi i want to report a bug in case anyone is intrested
[12:11] <rambo3> ubuntus can you elaborate ?
[12:11] <soundray> ubuntus: don't use useradd -- use adduser. Read man adduser
[12:11] <MrX|ubu> i just wish i could get it working
[12:11] <Uxen> hello
[12:11] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: I believe your issue isn't with your linux system, but with your DNS.
[12:11] <kbrooks> soundray, isn't saying "man ..." bad ?
[12:11] <ubuntus> trke bilen varm kanalda
[12:11] <MrX|ubu> hrm

[12:11] <MrX|ubu> so that eans what flannel
[12:11] <SplashTK9> Hey guys back again, x still doesn't load, but I figured out my username and password now what ;)
[12:11] <Uxen> can you tell me what chmod permission the Home directory has by default?
[12:11] <MrX|ubu> my isp
[12:11] <rambo3> !tr > ubuntus
[12:11] <ubuntus> yes
[12:12] <ubuntus> rambo3:
[12:12] <sipior> Uxen: usually rwxr-xr-x, iirc
[12:12] <chaoslynx> @hoot right click on the bar and then there is an option for it
[12:12] <happytron> SplayTK9: so you can login at the console?
[12:12] <Uxen> can you traslate in numbers please?
[12:12] <kbrooks> Uxen, ls -l /home | grep $USER
[12:12] <soundray> kbrooks: no, why?
[12:12] <SplashTK9> happytron, yep yep
[12:12] <ubuntus> trk birisi varm kanalda
[12:12] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: I think it's a router issue, not an ISP issue.
[12:12] <soundray> kbrooks: it's not like I rtfm'd him or her.
[12:12] <kbrooks> Uxen, uh, well, sure, looks like 755 to me. let me duplicate ...
[12:13] <rambo3> !tr | ubuntus
[12:13] <h00t_> chaoslynx: i don't knwo which one it is ... when i go to "add to panel" ... which one is systray

[12:13] <MrX|ubu> my modem seems to be working perfectly tho
[12:13] <happytron> so you just forgot it or something?
[12:13] <Uxen> ok thz
[12:13] <kbrooks> Uxen, i'm right.

[12:13] <MrX|ubu> windows box on network atm -- no problem
[12:13] <ubuntus> ubotu in room no users 1or2
[12:14] <soundray> kbrooks: can you explain what you meant by your question?
[12:14] <mneptok> ubuntus: that does mean you can speak Turkish here
[12:14] <Uxen> thanks :D i'll restart to try
[12:14] <mkquist_> glyn - cause if u do, gimp is not that hard to use, if u know the concepts behind photoshop (gimp is not photoshop of course), but it will do alot...
[12:14] <h00t_> sorry i got disconnected
[12:14] <mneptok> +not
[12:14] <Uxen> bye
[12:14] <mneptok> ubuntus: that does *NOT* mean you can speak Turkish here
[12:14] <kbrooks> soundray, i'm not sure now. sorry :-)
[12:14] <MrX|ubu> could apt trying to be using an ipv6 ip address, and as ipv6 has been shot its screwing it up?
[12:14] <SplashTK9> happytron, yes lol, it was something else entirely :p
[12:15] <happytron> SplayTK9: otherwise, i have no specific advice... you can look for fishy things in the logs: /var/log/gdm/* or var/log/Xorg.*
[12:15] <MrX|ubu> hmm
[12:15] <MrX|ubu> man apt
[12:15] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: You're on ADSL, right?
[12:15] <ubuntus> i know some english very small
[12:15] <tw200> how do i run system upgrade manager from the command line..?
[12:15] <happytron> maybe restarting it: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[12:15] <MrX|ubu> i am on adsl
[12:15] <MrX|ubu> yes
[12:15] <Flannel> tw200: in X? or start the GUI?
[12:15] <Flannel> tw200: er, in X, or update from the CLI?
[12:15] <soundray> ubuntus: have you deleted something by mistake?
[12:16] <mneptok> MrX|ubu: did you use EasyUbuntu or Automatix?
[12:16] <MrX|ubu> sorry dont know answer
[12:16] <tw200> Flannel, i cant use run anymore, thats how badly this system is broken :) so i want command line only?
[12:16] <Flannel> mneptok: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/81057
[12:16] <SplashTK9> happytron, yeah tried to restart it, nothing :(
[12:16] <Flannel> MrX|ubu, you'll want to read that too.  And follow the links on the bottom, I believe.
[12:16] <happytron> you can find your way around with the command line, right?
[12:16] <eXistenZ> When herd is out?
[12:16] <Flannel> tw200: `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`
[12:17] <ubuntus> useradd newusers    passwd newusers true or false
[12:17] <rambo3> eXistenZ, about 3 months ago
[12:17] <h00t_> can anyone know how to put back sysray in gnome
[12:17] <SplashTK9> happytron, I am alright
[12:17] <h00t_> systray
[12:17] <soundray> eXistenZ: now that there is a beta, there won't be any more Herds.
[12:17] <tw200> Flannel, thanks :)
[12:17] <soundray> !feisty > eXistenZ
[12:17] <ubuntus> useradd newusers    passwd newusers true or false
[12:18] <sipior> Flannel: that's quite the strange bug there
[12:18] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: so, it doesn't appear to be a bug in ubuntu, but a bug in your router/modem instead.  But you can apparently workaround it.
[12:18] <soundray> ubuntus: don't use useradd. Use adduser
[12:18] <MrX|ubu> how annoying
[12:18] <MrX|ubu> thanks flannel
[12:18] <MrX|ubu> will hunt for the solution some
[12:19] <eXistenZ> soundray: Are the ntfs partitions (usually) automatically mounted right after the installation of ubuntu (in media)?
[12:19] <Stormx2> eXistenZ: Mine were.
[12:19] <SplashTK9> any ideas happytron?
[12:19] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: solution is in that bugreport, setting DNS manually is one, upgrading firmware might also work, more stuff on that page.
[12:19] <rambo3> ubuntus : suddo adduser ubuntus
[12:19] <soundray> eXistenZ: I don't know, I'm not a Windows user
[12:19] <rambo3> -dd
[12:19] <ubuntus> how to use adduser you said parameter soundray
[12:19] <happytron> not really. look at the logs...
[12:19] <MrX|ubu> i cant upgrade firmware
[12:19] <MrX|ubu> it has latest version in it
[12:19] <happytron> sounds pretty weird if it just stopped working spontaneously
[12:19] <h00t_> anyone know how to put back sysray in gnome panel
[12:20] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: alright, then you'll need to set your DNS manually, I believe.
[12:20] <happytron> maybe your dot files are broken
[12:20] <SplashTK9> happytron, k k
[12:20] <soundray> ubuntus: 'adduser test' will add a new user with the username test. You will be asked to enter the password.
[12:20] <Stormx2> h00t_: Right click > add to panel. Look for notification area
[12:20] <happytron> try logging into x as a different user?
[12:20] <soundray> ubuntus: enter 'man adduser' to read about parameters.
[12:20] <dani> hola
[12:20] <MrX|ubu> that may be the case flannel but what ip address do i make it resolve to
[12:20] <SplashTK9> I only have 1 user though
[12:20] <dani> hi
[12:20] <sipior> MrX|ubu: maybe just simpler to install a proper dns server and configure your system to use that, bypassing the problem
[12:20] <happytron> *cough* root *cough*
[12:20] <ubuntus> parameter very difficult use soundray
[12:21] <ubuntus> :D
[12:21] <dani> hello
[12:21] <h00t_> Stormx2: It's called "notification area" ???
[12:21] <happytron> nah, i dunno really
[12:21] <Stormx2> h00t_: yeah.
[12:21] <superman> Hi
[12:21] <dani> god morning
[12:21] <soundray> ubuntus: you don't need any parameters
[12:21] <Flannel> MrX|ubu: Your ISP should provide you with DNS servers.  Or, you could host your own.
[12:21] <dani> jejeje
[12:21] <MrX|ubu> hmm
[12:21] <MrX|ubu> its a netcomm nb5 modem btw

[12:29] <Chapayev> (in 6.06)
[12:29] <tw200> cwillu, well, actually, i installed edgy and put dapper sources in sources-lists, thats where the messup came in,
[12:29] <cwillu> tw200: alt+f2, type gnome-terminal, tell me if you get anything
[12:29] <tw200> alt + f2 give me an error, Unable to load file '/usr/share/gnome/panel/glade/panel-run-dialog.glade'.

[12:30] <cwillu> tw200: ya, was just curious how broken it was
[12:30] <tw200> hehehe
[12:30] <ferronica> rambo: shows me long list
[12:30] <tw200> its broken :)
[12:30] <soundray> tw200: if you're currently running apt-get dist-upgrade, there's really no point trying to fix anything now. Wait till it's ready.
[12:30] <cwillu> tw200: you're running dist-upgrade right now you said?
[12:31] <h00t> Stormx2: soundray: wouldn't this http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/ be better ... by the filename it seems it's newer then this http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/dists/edgy-seveas/all/

[12:36] <ferronica> rambo3: how to do it
[12:36] <cwillu> soundray: can I do that?  it's open source :/
[12:36] <MrX|ubu> i edited the hosts
[12:36] <MrX|ubu> i need reboot
[12:37] <cwillu> MrX|ubu: shouldn't need to
[12:37] <_JP> ifup returns always 0, even if it says "Failed to bring up eth0". how do i detect the failure in a shell script?
[12:37] <cwillu> MrX|ubu:  unless you're renaming your machine
[12:37] <rambo3> ferronica, its in your mobile phone instructions . not ubuntu
[12:37] <soundray> cwillu: oh, in that case, just debug and recompile
[12:37] <MrX|ubu> no rename
[12:37] <econobeing> when i did "sudo gparted" it said "automounting disabled" yet for some reason it still automatically mounted my external, and i couldn't format/partition it...
[12:38] <cwillu> soundray: ya, just checked the manual; there's a big NO WARRANTY section, including "EXCEPT WHEN

[12:38] <MartyMcFly> Is it possible to get virtualbox to boot an existing windows installation?
[12:38] <cwillu> bigger than expected :p
[12:39] <soundray> econobeing: disable automounting in System-Preferences-Removable Drives
[12:39] <soundray> cwillu: that's enough impersonation for the day ;)
[12:39] <cwillu> quite

[12:40] <MrX|ubu> at least it resolves it to something other than 1.0.0.0
[12:40] <soundray> h00t: you don't have to, but if you don't, you'll get error messages when you install/update.
[12:40] <MrX|ubu> still no dice tho
[12:40] <soundray> h00t: it will still work
[12:40] <cwillu> MrX|ubu: what's the problem you're having?
[12:40] <rambo3> h00t, ask ubotu about source-o-matic
[12:41] <soundray> !easysource > h00t (good idea rambo3)
[12:41] <h00t> rambo3: how do you use the bot
[12:41] <kbrooks> cwillu, there is no guarantee that the software will actually be sellable or fit a particular purpose
[12:41] <kbrooks> cwillu, thats what the waranty means
[12:41] <MrX|ubu> when i apt-get update it resolves everything to 1.0.0.0
[12:41] <soundray> h00t: you just got a private message from the bot
[12:41] <Frogzoo> h00t: /msg ubotu help
[12:41] <MrX|ubu> so i put it in hosts file
[12:42] <MrX|ubu> and now it has the ipaddress in there
[12:42] <kbrooks> cwillu, no, i wasn't.
[12:42] <cwillu> MrX|ubu: cat you "dig archive.ubuntu.com"
[12:42] <ferronica> rambo3: have you checked my other link that i give you
[12:42] <Chapayev> help edit .conf for video res ???

[12:42] <kbrooks> cwillu, metaphorical car?
[12:42] <ferronica> rambo3: where is used lsusb command
[12:42] <cwillu> MrX|ubu: I'm interested if it gives a warning message when you do that command
[12:43] <cwillu> kbrooks: somewhat
[12:43] <rambo3> ferronica, yes it reports USB device but not a storage device ergo you cant mount the device
[12:43] <kbrooks> cwillu, elaborate.
[12:43] <MrX|ubu> i do a dig
[12:43] <MrX|ubu> no error
[12:43] <MrX|ubu> gives me the ip address
[12:43] <mkquist_> yeah for Kaffeine!! got the radio streaming from KCRW at last - Nocturna!
[12:43] <h00t> soundray: where can i see all the apt keys i got so far

[12:45] <MrX|ubu> the router

[12:53] <Chapayev> anyone rec. which player to install for mpg ?
[12:53] <MrX|ubu> it worked

[12:53] <ubotu> ferronica: cobex: Connector for mobile devices. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.8-1 (edgy), package size 22 kB, installed size 140 kB
[12:53] <cwillu> MrX|ubu: I think there's an option you can enter for dns to have it ignore some weirdness that your router is doing
[12:53] <jrib> h00t: sudo apt-get update    and then try again
[12:53] <h00t> ahhhh
[12:53] <cwillu> MrX|ubu: but it's been about a year since I ran into someone with this problem
[12:54] <ferronica> rambo3: okay
[12:54] <MrX|ubu> i see
[12:54] <MrX|ubu> point is its fixed
[12:54] <cwillu> MrX|ubu: "worked around" is the technical term :p
[12:55] <MrX|ubu> yea well worked around
[12:55] <hobs> I am having a problem with my nvidia drivers, specifically, I install them (I have tried automatix and synaptic so far) and then I am not able to get to the logic screen anymore without ctrl alt f1
[12:55] <MrX|ubu> point is it is doing what it is supposed to
[12:55] <Chapayev> anyone rec. which player (package in synapt.)  to install for mpg ?
[12:55] <hobs> and I know I have an Nvidia 6000 go series card
[12:55] <jrib> !mpg > Chapayev    (Chapayev, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:55] <cwillu> MrX|ubu: if your isp ever changes their dns, you'll have to update it by hand, just try to remember that if things break again

[12:55] <hobs> so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on where to start troubleshooting :D
[12:56] <jrib> h00t: use a different mirror
[12:56] <MrX|ubu> yea i may have to refix it
[12:56] <hobs> I think it may be the fact that it is a go series nvidia card, or something to that effect
[12:56] <cwillu> Steil: did it work under xp?
[12:56] <Steil> yes
[12:56] <cwillu> Steil: might need to enable it in the bios

[01:08] <h00t> does anyone know what happens when you have 2 firefox plugins (totem, mplayer) and they both can handle a certain type of stream ... which plugin will handle it .. how will firefox decide
[01:09] <h00t> basically i'm just trying to get internet xm radio to work
[01:10] <sipior> hoot: in that case, why would it matter which plugin handled it?
[01:10] <hobs> Hrm, after searching (EE) I only found one telling me that the "Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found", even though I tried to install the recommended ones from the repositories
[01:10] <hobs> and let automatix also try

[01:11] <ubotu> hobs: envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. This software is NOT supported by ubuntu and you will not receive aid for it here. More at http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html See !nvidia and !nvidia9
[01:11] <h00t> sipior: 'cause totem isn't handling it
[01:11] <hobs> thank you :D
[01:11] <h00t> and i don't know if i have to uninstall it
[01:11] <hobs> man that is a pretty useful bot
[01:12] <sipior> hoot: well, you can always try and then reinstall. have you done the usual steps for installing all 3rd party codecs &cet.?
[01:12] <hobs> Holy crap rambo3, this is what I have been looking for my entire life, thank you :D:D:D:D
[01:12] <sipior> hoot: i forget which handles wma, but surely one of them must :-)
[01:12] <kbrooks> hobs: "crap" is inapprop
[01:13] <hobs> is it D:
[01:13] <hobs> I apologize
[01:13] <sipior> hobs: i like crap, hobs. nothing to apologise for

[01:13] <hobs> Well where I come from it is pretty tame, but when in rome...
[01:13] <catxk> ok, so my computer died all of a sudden (does this sometimes, no worries) and when I rebooted into ubuntu, I don't get any sound! it's all dead... any ideas what might have happened?
[01:13] <kingcobra> does anybody know how to get windows media in web pages to play
[01:14] <OrTigaS> w00t
[01:14] <sipior> catxk: i've had this happen myself. you might try a cold boot (shut the power off, wait ten seconds, power back on)
[01:14] <h00t> w32codecs | kingcobra

[01:15] <h00t> heh
[01:15] <sipior> catxk: i've yet to figure out the underlying cause, i'm sorry to say
[01:15] <hobs> nooooooooo
[01:15] <hobs> Envy does not recognise your card as compatible with any version of the driver
[01:15] <kingcobra> h00t, thank you
[01:15] <catxk> sipior: odd! thanks for the tip though, I'll try it out
[01:16] <sipior> catxk: i believe the card gets left in an inconsistent state, which for some reason a reset does not alleviate
[01:23] <hobs> So does anyone have any idea why my nvidia 6150 go wouldnt be supported by any of the nvidia drivers?
[01:23] <_StefanS_> hi
[01:23] <_StefanS_> I was wondering, can I run x86_64 binaries when running x86 of ubuntu ?
[01:23] <sipior> hobs: does nvidia list it as supported at their site?
[01:23] <_StefanS_> I have a 64bit cpu
[01:23] <hobs> Well, it works under windows, let me check their site
[01:23] <catxk> sipior: didn't do it :(
[01:24] <sipior> catxk: ah well, worth a try
[01:24] <catxk> yeah thanks
[01:24] <kingcobra> h00t, E: Type 'gpg' is not known on line 43 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:24] <deus> say, i want my intel centrino cpu (with two cores) to take it easy, it runs on 1.6 ghz and i want to to run on 1 ghz, so it does not run so hot and so it saves some power
[01:24] <deus> what programs does that?
[01:24] <kingcobra> h00t, i cant get seveas list
[01:24] <sipior> catxk: i've had to reboot a few times to get it to work on occasion, but perhaps you've a different problem. see if you can get your computer to crash in exactly the same way again... :-)
[01:25] <kbrooks> kingcobra, pastebin your sources.list
[01:25] <hobs> Hrm, do you know where their supported list is, the computer I bought from HP has a "graphics by nvidia" but i dont know if that is true
[01:25] <sipior> deus: look at cpufreqd, i believe that does what you want
[01:25] <sipior> deus: there's also a gnome applet, iirc
[01:26] <kingcobra> kbrooks, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12132/

[01:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about soundserver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:34] <sipior> fenrig: what precisely do you mean by soundserver?
[01:34] <sipior> fenrig: something like arts or esd?
[01:34] <fenrig> sipior: something like arts
[01:34] <kingcobra> its done but i still dont see win32 codecs in synaptic h00t
[01:34] <fenrig> but better updated
[01:35] <um_whoa> i googled that error message but what they were talking about was a failure on boot
[01:35] <um_whoa>  mine only happens when i use pon and poff
[01:35] <h00t> then do this "sudo apt-get update"
[01:35] <kingcobra> done that h00t
[01:35] <adn_> alguien en castellano?
[01:36] <sipior> fenrig: hmm...i only know arts and esd, so if those don't do it for you...
[01:36] <h00t> now try this "apt-get install w32codecs"
[01:36] <h00t> sud
[01:36] <h00t> sudo
[01:36] <h00t> sudo
[01:36] <h00t> kingcobra: "sudo apt-get install w32codecs"
[01:36] <fenrig> okay
[01:36] <h00t> sry
[01:36] <kingcobra> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12134/
[01:36] <fenrig> but how do i install arts in ubuntu
[01:36] <fenrig> i only used it in kubuntu
[01:37] <sipior> fenrig: aptitude install arts should do it
[01:37] <fenrig> and how do i start arts then?
[01:38] <sipior> fenrig: well, that's a good question. if you're running gnome, you're probably best off just running esd, as it should be started automatically
[01:38] <um_whoa> what package do you have install before you install w32codecs?
[01:38] <fenrig> ah
[01:38] <sipior> sipior: you can always hack a system startup script to start arts, i guess
[01:38] <sipior> fenrig: it may even install one for you
[01:38] <h00t> um_whoa: none
[01:38] <fenrig> and how do i configure arts
[01:38] <kingcobra> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12134/ its changed h00t
[01:39] <fenrig> cause i can just play one source
[01:39] <fenrig> nothing else
[01:39] <fenrig> not totem and firefox both
[01:39] <fenrig> only totem
[01:39] <um_whoa> are you sure, because when i tried to do it i got back: "Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[01:39] <um_whoa> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[01:39] <um_whoa> is only available from another source
[01:39] <um_whoa> E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate
[01:39] <um_whoa> "
[01:39] <sipior> fenrig: that i can't help you with, i'm afraid. not sure if the man page is helpful for kde stuff
[01:39] <skar> hi, how do i disable/edit the LS_COLORS env variable?
[01:39] <sipior> fenrig: probably best off with esd, in that casr
[01:39] <sipior> skar: unset LS_COLORS
[01:39] <fenrig> and how do i configure esd
[01:40] <sipior> fenrig: man esd should show you enough to get on with
[01:40] <h00t> kingcobra: what's the output of "sudo apt-get install w32codecs"
[01:40] <skar> sipior: i want to change color codes for some file types, which file has this def ?

[01:41] <h00t> kingcobra: nothing has changed at link you posted .. check it
[01:41] <um_whoa> is the reason no one is saying a word to me the fact i am not using the http://paste deal like king is?
[01:41] <h00t> kingcobra: just paste the output here
[01:41] <um_whoa>  i guess not
[01:41] <kingcobra> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12135 sorry
[01:42] <sipior> skar: hmm...used to be /etc/DIR_COLORS, but i must be thinking of gentoo. you can just make a .dir_colors file, and load that via your .bashrc
[01:42] <kingcobra> its a bit long h00t
[01:42] <shirish> anybody game what could be going on? I'm have to use windows to find out why things are not happening in ubuntu :/

[01:43] <ferronica> rambo3: something like that

[01:44] <ubuntus> hi
[01:44] <kor> anyone can help me please?
[01:44] <um_whoa> is ubotu mod?
[01:44] <burito> shirish, why do you have 2 nics in the first place?
[01:44] <skar> and you'll only have eth0 up now
[01:44] <JosefK> could anyone point me to some docs about how to configure Lire on 6.10?
[01:44] <PriceChild> kor, what error?
[01:44] <PriceChild> um_whoa, ?
[01:44] <JosefK> I've setup a DLF, but I can't figure how to get the cron jobs to use it to create reports
[01:45] <shirish> one NIC is on the m/b & it doesn't have buffers, had bought the realtek card which also does have some memory
[01:45] <um_whoa> pricechild mod = head person in charge here.
[01:45] <fenrig> where do i configure esd?
[01:45] <kor> PriceChild: It says that my nvidia or something isn't set proprly
[01:45] <PriceChild> um_whoa, wanna pm?
[01:45] <shirish> also the SIS nic isn't so good
[01:45] <PriceChild> kor, could you give me the actual error? :)
[01:45] <um_whoa> about what? price child
[01:45] <sipior> um_whoa: wget -c http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20061022-0.0_i386.deb
[01:45] <PriceChild> kor, also the method you used to install nvidia
[01:46] <sipior> um_whoa: then install via "dpkg -i"
[01:46] <skar> shirish: "ifconfig ethx down" should down whichever NIC you want down, where x is the number
[01:46] <um_whoa> thanks
[01:46] <ubuntus> i have got media/sda2 partion  i amnot write
[01:46] <kor> PriceChild: well, I have to config it again but i forgot the command.
[01:46] <IdleOne> !w32codecs
[01:46] <skar> more importantly, you can have internet through 1 nic while the other nic is also up
[01:46] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[01:46] <shirish> skar: thnx now how to know if eth0 is Sis or the Realtek one, is there anyway to find out?
[01:46] <skar> shirish: which nic is connected to the net?
[01:47] <sipior> oh sure, now!
[01:47] <shirish> skar: the realtek one, its connected to my router+modem
[01:47] <h00t> does anyone know what player is totem based on
[01:47] <ubuntus> i have got media/sda2 partion  i amnot write please help me
[01:47] <sipior> hoot: gstreamer, by default. there's also a xine version

[02:26] <TSCDan> Hmm... on http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download 6.06 is supported longer than 6.10. Am I missing something here?
[02:26] <babo> sipior: nope, I have the name server on 192.168.1.254
[02:26] <babo> wow, my dns server is sloooooooow
[02:26] <sipior> babo: oh, well then installing djbdns or bind isn't changing anything for you
[02:26] <IdleOne> TSCDan, no you arent. 6.06 is a LTS ( long term support ) release
[02:26] <cypher1> TSCDan, thats correct.. 6.06 is a LTS ..
[02:26] <TSCDan> Ohh... that's what LTS was :)
[02:26] <babo> sipior: yes, it is. It'll cache names at least ...
[02:27] <babo> no more 4 minute waits for www.google.com :-)
[02:27] <jhaig> Is there a plan for when the next LTS will be, or will it be "when it's ready"?
[02:27] <TSCDan> Which would be recommended for a server?
[02:27] <comm[A|n] der> hi there, are there any documents regarding to feature-changes when upgrading to feisty, especially changes regarding to /etc/network/interfaces?
[02:27] <IdleOne> jhaig, all ubuntu releases are supported for atleast 18 months
[02:28] <IdleOne> !feisty | comm[A|n] der
[02:28] <ubotu> comm[A|n] der: 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)
[02:28] <sipior> babo: if it's not listed in resolv.conf, it's not caching anything, i don't believe
[02:28] <babo> sipior: it looks like it hasn't installed bind on the system. I think djbdns is just a small file, kinda like the routing table scenario. Maybe I should install bind and point /etc/resolv.conf to it ? But I'd still have to point bind to my ISP's crappy nameservers anyway right ?
[02:29] <shirish> skar: you still here?
[02:29] <sipior> babo: no, your name server can do all the queries by itself, so the isp servers are out of the picture
[02:29] <TeTeT> does anyone know how to change the xserver screen resolution from the command line?
[02:29] <babo> sipior: where does my bind server point to ?
[02:30] <sipior> babo: the default install will know how to make the appropriate queries. just add nameserver 127.0.0.1 to your resolv.conf and it should start working immediately
[02:30] <babo> sipior: so what do I do then ? just 'sudo apt-get install bind' and then => /etc/resolv.conf 'nameserver localhost' and then chkconfig -add bind and then /etc/init.d/bind start ?
[02:30] <mikebeecham> Hello...can someone help me with a screen resolution issue.  I have installed nvidia drivers, but cant get the resolution past 1024.  I have tried to configure the x-window a few times, but I keep crashing the computer
[02:31] <babo> sipior: does that pretty much do it ?
[02:31] <sipior> babo: yep, that should do it, although no chkconfig on ubuntu, i think...
[02:31] <sipior> babo: see here for more information: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO.html
[02:31] <sipior> babo: that should get you going
[02:32] <babo> sipior: yeah, I've read it a couple of times already. DNS can be a bit of pain at times though ..
[02:32] <sipior> babo: yeah, takes some getting used to
[02:32] <babo> sipior: what is there instead of chkconfig then ?
[02:33] <sipior> babo: i confess i usually just start it with /etc/init.d/bind start, which is maybe a trifle crude
[02:33] <sipior> babo: there's a gnome service manager which you could use, i suppose
[02:34] <aeromix> hi all.. I have many identical lines in a file and I want to print the last occurence of each of them... any tips?
[02:34] <tarzeau> aeromix: sort -u or | uniq ?
[02:34] <babo> hmm
[02:34] <jenda> aeromix: nazdar ;)
[02:34] <tarzeau> aeromix: i'm not sure if it's the first or last occurence printed, but one shouldn't notice
[02:34] <aeromix> tarzeau: doesn't works.. cause it sorts it alphabetically
[02:35] <aeromix> jenda: hoj
[02:36] <kingcobra> does anybody know how to get windows media working in firefox
[02:36] <aeromix> tarzeau: I don't want to have it sorted

[02:40] <shirish> ok guys I'm having issues using my router modem on linux
[02:40] <shirish> I have 2 NIC's on my comp.

[02:41] <shirish> perhaps somebody can help me with this & tell what's going on?
[02:41] <rinman> babo: but i install it with apt-get and get the error while unpacking (it seems), so seems to me like a ubuntu related error rather than a mysql error
[02:41] <neho> my wife wants me to install vista (we have ubuntu at the moment)- I only have a non-bootable disk - how do I run setup?
[02:41] <robdeman> my system says 'You have new mail.' -- how do I read this new mail?
[02:41] <main2> neho: you dont
[02:41] <babo> rinman: depends on what the error is i suppose. If it's a package problem then you might try to compile it ...
[02:41] <shirish> neho: I don't think people would be helping u with vista instals
[02:41] <main2> and dont expect that we gonna help you with that vista piece of shit
[02:41] <IdleOne> neho, let your wife read www.badvista.org
[02:42] <main2> go to #windows or something
[02:42] <PriceChild> !ohmy
[02:42] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:42] <defrysk> neho, maybe its time to devorce ? ;p
[02:42] <neho> I know that - my wife just doesnt want to learn something else
[02:42] <main2> get that bitch under your desk, and teach her
[02:42] <PriceChild> !ohmy > main2
[02:42] <neho> classic - I like ubuntu guys - she doesnt - I was aiming for a dual boot (I just dont know how to get there)
[02:42] <shirish> there are pretty no. of channels which would help u with tht, finding resources & getting things done
[02:42] <nox-Hand> main2: language..?
[02:42] <PriceChild> neho, install vista then reinstall grub.
[02:43] <IdleOne> main2, we help anybody we can and dont tell them to go somewhere else unless it absolutely necessary and NEVER with that language
[02:43] <sipior> main2: being a jerk..?
[02:43] <IdleOne> PriceChild, we got a troll in here
[02:43] <PriceChild> Lets move on please
[02:43] <shirish> guys can anybody tell me why my ifconfig is saying Media link off?
[02:43] <main2> shirish, do you have lights burning on the NIC's?
[02:44] <IdleOne> !dualboot | neho
[02:44] <ubotu> neho: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[02:44] <shirish> main2: hi, I have 2 NIC's out of which the RTL NIC is connected to the router+modem.
[02:44] <main2> shirish, but if you have no media link, that means that there's something with the cable normally
[02:44] <main2> is this working under another setup perhaps?
[02:45] <neho> ubotu - I know what to do to dual boot once it is installed - I just cant install the vista at the moment - I can run the setup.exe file
[02:45] <shirish> main2: its working under windows, no issues
[02:45] <Bokeh> afternoon people, i've got an issue with dapper in combination with the new desktop machines we're planning on purchasing...
[02:45] <Bokeh> the dapper setup works normally, however on the new machines, the network doesn't start on boot
[02:45] <robdeman> folks.. mail: command not found...??
[02:45] <main2> shirish, ok lemme see..
[02:45] <robdeman> how can I read the 'You have new mail'...?
[02:45] <PriceChild> !windows | neho (see pm from ubotu)
[02:45] <ubotu> neho (see pm from ubotu): For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[02:45] <shirish> neho, pm me in a pvt. channel I'll tell u what u need to do
[02:45] <Bokeh> ifup -a doesn't do anything, an strace shows it reading the /var/run/network/ifstate file, but nothing after that
[02:45] <IdleOne> neho,  you should be able to just pop the cd in and reboot
[02:46] <babo> sipior: my dns is still pretty slow dude ...
[02:46] <Bokeh> if i do an /etc/init.d/networking restart of rm /var/run/network/ifstate && /etc/init.d/networking start it works fine though
[02:46] <Bokeh> except when i try that in the init script
[02:46] <sipior> robdeman: install the mailutils package, then try again
[02:46] <ubuntus> sipio gparted edit when two errors
[02:46] <main2> shirish, this is about eth0?
[02:46] <main2> right
[02:46] <sipior> babo: even hitting cached names?
[02:46] <shirish> main2: I was told the Realtek NIC is eth1
[02:46] <main2> eth1 it is, i see
[02:46] <sipior> babo: is this in firefox?
[02:47] <babo> sipior: nope, cached names are fine ...
[02:47] <babo> sipior: yip
[02:47] <neho> idleone - it doesnt boot up - I thought it would but it doesnt
[02:47] <robdeman> sipior: ok thanx
[02:47] <sipior> babo: and you restarted firefox after changing resolv.conf?
[02:47] <ruschi> Hi guys  - my fstab/mount acts really suspiciously: the NFS volumes are mounted (I can see the content) but they don't show up in mtab or on the desktop..... any idea?
[02:47] <babo> sipior: hmm
[02:47] <ruschi> I can manually UNmount them
[02:47] <IdleOne> neho, bios are set to boot from CD first ?
[02:48] <shirish> also the network manager applet refuses to show link icon, should the router be turned off before & be on after getting in linux, or before?
[02:48] <babo> sipior: can it be nameserver 127.0.0.1 or shoudl I add the :53 ?
[02:48] <neho> idleone - yep
[02:48] <lpf> Can someone please tell me if intel chipset PCI Dail up modem would be work with Ubuntu?
[02:48] <babo> sipior: but I'm using dig to test it ...
[02:48] <sipior> babo: no, just the ip address there
[02:48] <sipior> babo: the :53 is implied
[02:48] <babo> www.worldwidenews.com takes 4235msec
[02:48] <ruschi> and then do a mount -a -t nfs and they show up...
[02:48] <IdleOne> neho, /join ##windows and ask them not sure what it could be
[02:48] <neho> idleone - I thought it might have something to do with grub or ubuntu in general that it didnt boot up
[02:48] <sipior> babo: might just be you have a slow connection to the nearest root servers
[02:48] <Bokeh> lpf: is it a software modem?
[02:48] <sipior> babo: happens some times
[02:48] <IdleOne> neho, nope grub nor ubuntu would affect it
[02:48] <shirish> main2: any ideas?
[02:48] <main2> shirish, its weird -> it says that there is no media link
[02:49] <PriceChild> neho, "Windows in #windows or your nearest mental health institute." Please.
[02:49] <ruschi> but if mounted at boottime they don't show
[02:49] <main2> but it does get an ip, or did you give it a static one?
[02:49] <neho> sorry for harassing you guys
[02:49] <IdleOne> neho, no worries
[02:49] <lpf> not sure
[02:49] <Bokeh> hehe :)

[02:49] <shirish> tht is what I'm saying, I know it's weird, the more weirder thing is it works somehow when I open up the Sis i.e. eth0 otherwise I'm unable to browse, don't know what's happening there
[02:49] <mikebeecham> Hello...can someone help me with a screen resolution issue.  I have installed nvidia drivers, but cant get the resolution past 1024.  I have tried to configure the x-window a few times, but I keep crashing the computer
[02:49] <Bokeh> but anyways, anyone ever encountered a problem with dapper where network won't come up at boot time and after booting only by doing an /etc/init.d/networking restart ?
[02:49] <babo> sipior: yeah, it is running smoother though. Thanks. :-)

[02:50] <Bokeh> "start a new file" ?

I have had it working before on a previous installation, but everything has gone bananas this time, and if someone, anyone, could give me a hint here I would be really appreciative. I have done multiple installs of gnomad2 from several locations, and I decided to start again from scratch, just from libmtp and everything and start again. My problem now, is that although I ha
[03:00] <ernz> ve sudo apt-get removed gnomad2 and removed it rhough the synaptic package manager, it is STILL INSTALLED! I can run gnomad2 despite ite being "removed" from the system. I ran locate gnomad2 and it scrolls tonnes of entries on this box of gnomad2. It is still definitely installed. Can anyone suggest a proper way of removing it for sure?

[03:02] <ubuntus> Hobbsee:  ubuntu users old or young
[03:02] <Reuben> mikebeechham....whats the issue
[03:02] <Hobbsee> ubuntus: sorry?
[03:02] <kkkkkkkkkkkk> kingcobra, did you install all of the codecs?  If I remember correctly, wmv is not in the prepackaged group of codecs.
[03:03] <IdleOne> ubuntus, from 10 to 110
[03:03] <kingcobra> what are all the codecs kkkkkkkkkkkk
[03:03] <mikebeecham> Reuben: I have recently installed Ubuntu onto my windows machine as a dual boot system.  I have installed the latest nVidia drivers, but cannot get the resolution past 1024 x 768.  I have tried to configure X-Window, but the two times I have tried have crashed the computer

[03:04] <ubuntus> im sorry im know some english :D Hobbsee
[03:04] <Reuben> mikebeecham ok assuming you have a laptop with a wxga screen? because thats what mine was
[03:05] <Reuben> mikebeecham do you have the graphics card specs?
[03:05] <mikebeecham> Reuben: No, I have a dual-boot PC, with a BenQ FP91G+ 19" Monitor
[03:05] <mikebeecham> Reuben: My card is an nVidia 7600GT
[03:05] <joachim-n> does cron.hourly run on the hour?
[03:05] <kkkkkkkkkkkk> kingcobra theres a codec pack you can download if my memory serves me correctly... dont remember offhand what it's called, or where to get it, but if you google for mplayer codec wmv, it should come up.
[03:05] <ubuntus> waw 1014 users in ubuntu channel
[03:05] <ubuntus> :d
[03:05] <Terrasque> mikebeecham: what is the max res of the screen in windows?
[03:06] <mikebeecham> Terrasque: 1280 x 1024 @ 60Mhz
[03:06] <ubuntus> you is know and use pardus sipio
[03:07] <Reuben> mikebeecham ok same situation....download the latest nvidia drivers if you don't already have them....also what is the native resolution i.e. the max resolution or the one you want to force
[03:07] <mikebeecham> Reuben: I have installed the latest drivers via Automatix 2.  I want to run 1280 x 1024
[03:07] <kryppen> mikebeecham: try using envy i guess, works easy enough to get the latest nvidia drivers
[03:08] <valehru> hey guys, is there a good defragger I could use to defrag my ipod?  Its a FAT32 system
[03:08] <mikebeecham> Kryppen: envy?
[03:08] <IdleOne> !automatix | mikebeecham
[03:08] <ubotu> mikebeecham: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:08] <nick01> I just received the cds I ordered after only 20 days :) thing is I also ordered 2 years ago 5.10 which I never received for some reason; now after a new version is available can I still get that ?
[03:08] <kryppen> mikebeecham: http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[03:08] <kryppen> script to automatically take care off drivers
[03:08] <valehru> nick01, why would you want an old version?
[03:09] <nick01> valehru: to give to people :) anyway can I still get it once a new version is available through sipit ?
[03:09] <nick01> shipit
[03:09] <kryppen> mikebeecham: are your current drivers installed properly, i mean do you get  a nvidia screen at startup
[03:09] <valehru> nick01, I don't think so.
[03:09] <ubuntus> sipio you see http://www.pardus.org.tr/eng/index.html
[03:09] <nick01> :(
[03:10] <Pici> nick01: You'd have to ask the people at Ship-It for a definite answer though.
[03:10] <nick01> Pici: through email ?
[03:10] <Pici> nick01: I guess, check their website for contact info.
[03:11] <nick01> Pici: no email on the page
[03:12] <Reuben> mikebeecham confirm you have X11 and the latest drivers, then http://othello.alma.edu/~07tmhopk/ubuntuhowto.html (scroll down a bit)
[03:12] <IdleOne> nick01, try going through the shipit process. IIRC it gives you a choice of version see if it isa available
[03:12] <ubuntus> sipior: you see http://www.pardus.org.tr/eng/index.html
[03:12] <Reuben> mikebeecham this is the exact workaround i used for my laptop and nvidia card

[03:13] <realrhY> I'm now using the live cd and gaim to talk in here, because I can no longer load ubuntu or vista on any of my hds.  Any help?
[03:13] <realrhY> I'm getting grub error 22
[03:13] <laskin1> xxx.kth
[03:14] <IdleOne> realrhY, what changed that you cant install ubuntu anymore?
[03:14] <nick01> IdleOne: dunno if that means they would also accept it
[03:14] <IdleOne> nick01, well if the version you want is available I would assume they accept the order for it but you need to make sure with shippit
[03:15] <realrhY> IdleOne: I was trying to install feisty in some extra room on my hard drive, and I had a hd crash.  Now I can't install on any hard drive, or grub is loading automatically on the hosed one or something.
[03:15] <IdleOne> !fixgrub | realrhY

[03:15] <nick01> IdleOne: that would be had since theres no means of contact provided; anyway I already received my cds as I said I only wanted to know if I still could get the next version when it comes

[03:16] <realrhY> Can I boot off of a usb drive?  How do I get grub on there from the LiveCD?
[03:16] <IdleOne> nick01, lmao you said the older version earlier... yes you can get the NEXCT version when it is released

[03:17] <nick01> IdleOne: I said I ordered 2 years ago 5.10 and never received it I now received 6.06
[03:17] <mikebeecham> Reuben: Right, I have rebooted and I now have both the nVidia splash screen, and also I have nVidia settings.  However, there is no way I can change the resolution.  I can open up the resolution setting within system > preferences, but still no higer than 1024?
[03:17] <IdleOne> nick01, 2 yrs ago was a different story..
[03:17] <realrhY> ok, thanks, I'm reading now.
[03:17] <nick01> IdleOne: just today :)

[03:18] <birgstef> hello friends... just a problem with the DOWNLOAD link Feisty Beta?
[03:18] <birgstef> ive downloaded, and have now a fine dapper install CD
[03:18] <mikebeecham> Reuben: How do I check X11?
[03:18] <mweichert> does anyone have a working preseed configuration file that automatically partitions the hard disk - that they would be willing to share? :)
[03:18] <q_> how to connect two computers using a crossover cable?
[03:18] <birgstef> downloaded from: http://de.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386.iso
[03:18] <rohan> does DoctorMO hang out here ?
[03:18] <birgstef> md5sum: b48f708dd3680b337fb8edb54c5cda31
[03:18] <realrhY> umm... man that is all complete greek.
[03:18] <birgstef> mistake? april ? or whats wrong ?
[03:19] <realrhY> Do I have to like make a program or something?
[03:19] <realrhY> There's code everywhere!!!
[03:19] <IdleOne> realrhY, I understand it is confusing but for you to get grub fixed your going to need to read and re-read if needed and follow the instructions... not as hard as it seems and I know you can do it because you already installed Ubuntu 1 time 
[03:19] <Reuben> mikebeecham open the terminal Applications>Accessories>terminal            then type sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[03:20] <_filippo_> is there a way to move all evolution settings and accounts from a distro to another?
[03:20] <realrhY> IdleOne, no I haven't.  This was my first time.
[03:20] <_filippo_> what do i have to copy?
[03:20] <realrhY> I'm not recommending this for grandma.
[03:20] <IdleOne> lol
[03:20] <mikebeecham> Reuben: Thank you for your help..I have been using Linux for about a week now..so will need some hand-holding I think!
[03:20] <_filippo_> .evolution seems not enought since it copies just the messages but no accounts
[03:20] <old> any one know framebuffer?
[03:21] <mikebeecham> Reuben: xorg.conf is empty?
[03:21] <IdleOne> realrhY, need to be patient and willing to learn something new. read the docs before doing anything and try and make sense of it... something you arent sure of you can ask in here
[03:21] <realrhY> all I want to do is have grub installed on my USB drive.  What do I need to copy/paste, and can I do that from the LiveCD?
[03:22] <dcordes> how can i upgrade from dapper to edgy?
[03:22] <dcordes> or even to feisty
[03:22] <IdleOne> realrhY, that link ubotu gave you has info on making grub boot disks and such
[03:22] <CheshireViking_> !upgrade > dcordes
[03:22] <dcordes> !upgrade
[03:22] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:23] <realrhY> Ok, I tried df /boot in the console and got unionfs  a bunch of numbers, and the prompt again.
[03:23] <cliebow_> dcordes..upgrade on revision at a time...
[03:23] <realrhY> where and what is groot?
[03:24] <birgstef> any one knows who upped the files on http://de.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386.iso
[03:24] <birgstef> ?
[03:24] <realrhY> any way to make Vista work again?
[03:24] <_filippo_> no answer to me?
[03:24] <birgstef> this is not the right version, under http://de.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386.iso where upped DAPPER 6.06!
[03:24] <mikebeecham> Reuben: xorg.conf is empty?
[03:24] <Freakazilla> I have a question about the forums
[03:24] <realrhY> PS I hate vista which is why I was trying ubuntu.  Plus I saw a youtube of beryl that was the bomb.
[03:24] <Reuben> mikebeecham and then use the instructions on the webpage.....i switched 2 weeks ago but this is the exact issue i had............that means it hasn't opened as superuser
[03:25] <realrhY> but now I'm in a ugly brown window and can't boot off anything but CD.
[03:25] <mikebeecham> Reuben: my xorg.conf is empty, and I have been down this route already...I'm not sure whether I put the wrong info in or not, but X would not restart, and I had to uninstall and reinstall ubuntu via the live CD
[03:26] <Reuben> mikebeecham ok in the terminal type sudo gedit
[03:26] <birgstef> i asked again: who upped the beta feisty files on : http://de.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386.iso ?
[03:26] <realrhY> unionfs isn't even listed in that example.
[03:26] <birgstef> when u download it, u get DAPPER!
[03:26] <IdleOne> birgstef, try #ubuntu-dev
[03:26] <Reuben> mikebeecham it should ask for your passwrod
[03:26] <birgstef> ty IdleOne
[03:28] <mikebeecham> Reuben: I have opened up the xorg.conf file...lots of info in there...I am just a bit afraid that if I crash X, then I will not be able to get back into the desktop
[03:28] <Reuben> no clue
[03:29] <bulmer> mikebeecham: always make a copy  before you modify
[03:29] <Reuben> mikebeecham back up the file
[03:29] <Black^Dragon> or if ya lucky to have a second pc, experiment there first
[03:29] <q_> how to connect two computers using a crossover cable?
[03:30] <realrhY> Is there a way to VNC to another computer off of the LiveCD?
[03:30] <realrhY> At least then I could check my email.
[03:30] <ubuntus> sipior i format pc ubuntu errors no fix
[03:31] <mikebeecham> bulmer: I have done that, as per the instructions.  However, last time I crashed X, all I had was a black screen with a flashing cursor.  No matter what I entered it just dropped the cursor to the next line down without doing anything else
[03:31] <bulmer> realrhY: yes you install the vncviewer or some similar client
[03:31] <realrhY> bulmer: how do I do that?
[03:31] <ricardo> have anybody tried the distr updater of adept?
[03:31] <bulmer> mikebeecham: once you realized you made  mistake you can re-coup the old config from your backup ..did you do that?
[03:32] <bulmer> realrhY: does your liveCD have access to the internet now?
[03:32] <mikebeecham> bulmer: I have been using Linux for a week....no!
[03:32] <Reuben> mikebeecham in the subsection screen what is the highest resolution shown? replace it with the resolution you want.....here's what mine looks like: Modes      "1440x900" "800x600" "640x480" NOTE I CHANGED it for ALL depths, not just 1 as recommended in the how-to
[03:32] <realrhY> yeah, I'm on the livecd right now!
[03:32] <realrhY> (in gaim)
[03:32] <ubuntus> sipior linux full backup program ???
[03:33] <bulmer> realrhY: okay, then you can use the synaptic manager to download vncviewer and off course the other end must be running VNCSERVER okay?
[03:33] <CPF_> Anyone here knows some partition cloner for linux?
[03:33] <mikebeecham> Reuben: The highest res shown in the config is 1024.  If I added 1280 into each line, then saved and rebooted...should that work?
[03:33] <realrhY> yeah, it should be running already.
[03:33] <CPF_> mikebeecham no need for reboot
[03:34] <bulmer> mikebeecham: okay now you would learn to rename your backup copy to xorg.conf  so you can recover..okay?
[03:34] <Reuben> mikebeecham thats exactly what i did and no hassles
[03:34] <CPF_> mikebeecham just CRTL+ALT+BACKSPACE
[03:34] <CPF_> So, anyone knows some partition cloning software?
[03:34] <CPF_> I could kinda use it?
[03:34] <ubuntus> cpf linux full clone ????
[03:35] <realrhY> all i see is vnc-common.  And it's already green?
[03:35] <kingcobra> does anybody know how to copy a folder contents into another folder
[03:35] <CPF_> What do you mean ubuntus
[03:35] <CPF_> I can't find that on google -.-'
[03:35] <bulmer> realrhY: do not forget yours is liveCD, whatever you download and install will be gone at next reboot
[03:35] <IdleOne>  kingcobra sudo cp folder newfolder
[03:35] <realrhY> yeah.
[03:35] <yeti> CPF_: well, you can create a byte-by-byte image of a partition with dd
[03:35] <kbidd> CPF_, what do you mean by clone?  Are you looking to just copy the partition, or are you looking for a tool like partition magic for windows?
[03:35] <realrhY> but there is no vncviewer.
[03:35] <CPF_> Something like ghost? :-S
[03:36] <kbidd> CPF_: as yeti said, dd is good for a byte-by-byte copy if you just want to make a backup that you can restore from.
[03:36] <Freakazilla> helloooo
[03:36] <realrhY> nor do I have any idea where the shortcut is for vnc-common.
[03:36] <bulmer> realrhY: one more thing, you need to prefix your responses with a nick so we know who you are responding to
[03:36] <ubuntuEdgy> im trying to setup static ip for my server, can any one help ,really getting confused with these guides
[03:36] <realrhY> bulmer: ok.
[03:36] <ubuntuEdgy> i have a broadband router
[03:36] <CPF_> kbidd and how should I use dd then, the only moment I used dd was for grub, and I didn't know what I was doing -.-"
[03:36] <realrhY> bulmer: any idea where vncviewer is?
[03:36] <kingcobra> IdleOne, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12153/
[03:36] <bkarnes> Hello?
[03:36] <kbidd> CPF_: but if you're looking for a more powerful/easy to use suite like partition magic, I've heard very good things about gparted (although ive never used it myself).
[03:36] <bulmer> realrhY: there should be some descriptions on those vnc as to which is the client
[03:36] <ubuntus> partion imager
[03:37] <realrhY> bulmer, wait is xvncviewer what I want?
[03:37] <mikebeecham> Reuben: I Love you :D
[03:37] <realrhY> bulmer: how do I start that?
[03:37] <IdleOne> bulmer, realrhY is he needs to fix grub so he can boot into either ubuntu or windows . I gave him the link for !grub ( but it's all greek ) now he is searching for the quick and easiest way to not have to fix grub
[03:37] <bulmer> realrhY: where is your VNCSERVER and is it set up already?
[03:37] <bkarnes> Does anyone know anything about half-installed apps?
[03:37] <ubuntus> one number partion imager linux bakup systems
[03:37] <CPF_> Hmm... So gparted should be able to backup?
[03:37] <realrhY> bulmer: yes, it's the ip in my living room.
[03:37] <Reuben> mikebeecham worked i take it?
[03:37] <_filippo_> after installing my language packs gdm username entry became bolded and ugly does anybody knows this issue?
[03:38] <bulmer> realrhY: via the command line  xvncviewer ipaddressofvncserver
[03:38] <CPF_> Odd, I never heard of it being able to do that...
[03:38] <realrhY> bulmer: 192.168.1.100
[03:38] <kbidd> realrhY, did you try just chrooting into your actual installation, and running the grub command?
[03:38] <felixhummel> NFS problem: I moved my server's /home to an external drive. In /etc/exports I share / with my whole network. Before I mounted /home from my hdc1, I could mount /home from my client easily, but now it's just empty (although all permissions are the same -- ls -la tells). Please help.
[03:38] <CPF_> I'll look up that dd thing though, it looks just like I wanted.
[03:38] <mikebeecham> Reuben: Yes it did thankyou very much.  Becuase I did not know about backing up the xconf file, I installed Ubuntu 5 times since yesterday
[03:38] <iAmTheDave> hey - trying to set up cygwin and xwin to get to a remote XDMCP session on my home ubuntu box... any idea what ports i need to open in my router?  i tried 177 UDP and 6000 TCP after a google search, and am using xwin -query ipaddress
[03:38] <realrhY> kbidd: you just totally freaked me out beause I have no idea what any of that sentence means.
[03:38] <ubuntus> CPF_:  www.partionimager.org
[03:38] <bkarnes> Anybody?
[03:39] <q_> .
[03:39] <CPF_> Link broken?
[03:39] <Broady> guys, i think i rooted my other computer, it had XP on it, then i installed ubuntu on the other drive, windows wont boot now.
[03:39] <kbidd> realrhY the chroot command allows you to switch from the liveCD environment (which I assume you're running in right now) to the actual one installed on the hard drive
[03:39] <realrhY> partimage.org?
[03:39] <Broady> something to do with GRUB?
[03:39] <skoenman> ok i have installed a mail system with postfix and courierpop3 on the system i have added the user and made the user part of the postfix and maildrop group..... but when i try and connect with outlook express it says password rejected.
[03:39] <blackdevil> cia a tutti, c' qualche italiano?
[03:39] <felixhummel> Broady, probably.
[03:39] <realrhY> kbidd: sweet, then I can fix grub?
[03:39] <Broady> felixhummel: How do I fix that then?
[03:40] <bulmer> its fine, realrhY as long as you know how to use VNC ..you can try xvncviewer via the command line, btw once you installed you can type man xvncviewer  to get synopsis of the command
[03:40] <felixhummel> Broady, when u select windows, it tells ntloader not found?
[03:40] <skoenman> anybody got some idea???
[03:40] <Broady> felixhummel: I can't select Windows?

[03:41] <felixhummel> yep
[03:41] <Broady> felixhummel: or are there other steps
[03:41] <Broady> ok, thanks. will look it up
[03:41] <felixhummel> though, windows is a little tricky
[03:42] <Broady> should just be hda
[03:42] <Broady> cause its my 1st drive
[03:42] <felixhummel> Broady, edit that file, then do update-grub
[03:42] <IdleOne> sudo update grub
[03:42] <Broady> sudo update-grub?
[03:42] <maitscha> hi! where can I find the linux-headers-generic?
[03:42] <IdleOne> sudo update-grub
[03:42] <Broady> with a hyphen?
[03:42] <felixhummel> Broady, no. It would be (hd0) for grub
[03:42] <Broady> IdleOne: thanks
[03:42] <Broady> felixhummel: oh ok, well i'll follow by example.

[03:43] <kingcobra> IdleOne, copying a folder didnt work for me http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12153/
[03:43] <IdleOne> realrhY, to talk in private you are going to need to register your nickname type /msg nickserv register
[03:43] <realrhY> kbidd: I pmed you!
[03:43] <maitscha> I need to install the linux-headers-generic for the ati-drivers.
[03:43] <skoenman> mail help please
[03:43] <maitscha> but apt always says package not found
[03:43] <felixhummel> Broady, maybe this could help you too: http://www.felixhummel.de/tiddlywiki.html#GrubFix
[03:44] <kbidd> realrhY, do you know which partition your boot partition is?
[03:44] <realrhY> nope!
[03:44] <Broady> felixhummel: thanks heaps mate
[03:44] <felixhummel> Broady, is grub installed on your (hd0) too? Then it should be really easy.
[03:44] <Broady> felixhummel: I really doubt it. all I did to install ubuntu was put in a new HDD and install it onto that.
[03:44] <Broady> no prompts about grub :/
[03:44] <ubuntu_noob> hello, can someone please help me with bittorrent (deluge) ?
[03:44] <realrhY> can I find that out somehow?
[03:45] <IdleOne> kingcobra, what is it you are try to do? use wmv?
[03:45] <realrhY> I wish I could just install grub onto my little USB drive.
[03:45] <realrhY> that would be sweet.
[03:45] <felixhummel> Broady, then the first two lines in the second paragraph from my page are essential.
[03:45] <Zennor> hej hej
[03:46] <kbidd> realrhY, do a > fdisk -l
[03:46] <kbidd> realrhY that will list the partitions on your disk
[03:46] <felixhummel> NFS problem: I moved my server's /home to an external drive. In /etc/exports I share / with my whole network. Before I mounted /home from my hdc1, I could mount /home from my client easily, but now it's just empty (although all permissions are the same -- ls -la tells). Please help.
[03:46] <CPF_> ok, guys, thanks, that partimage is just what I looked for :-)
[03:46] <Zennor> i need some asistance on installing kubuntu from cd-rom! i boot from cd and start the installation and at cd-rom-detect he doesn't find my device...
[03:47] <Broady> felixhummel: I'm getting an error on your page in Safari
[03:47] <Broady> Problems were encountered loading plugins. See PluginManager for details
[03:47] <realrhY> kbidd: /dev/sdc1
[03:47] <felixhummel> damn
[03:47] <kbidd> Zennor, the kubuntu channel is #kubuntu... while we can try to answer your questions here, you'd probably be better off asking there.
[03:47] <felixhummel> Broady, javascript enabled?
[03:47] <kbidd> realrhY, is that your root or boot partition?
[03:47] <Broady> felixhummel: afaik yes
[03:47] <felixhummel> omg.
[03:48] <realrhY> umm... how would I know?  what does that even mean?
[03:48] <ubuntu_noob> Can someone please help me with bit-torrent?
[03:48] <skoenman> ok i have installed a mail system with postfix and courierpop3 on the system i have added the user and made the user part of the postfix and maildrop group..... but when i try and connect with outlook express it says password rejected.
[03:48] <kbidd> realrhY, open a terminal window, and type sodu -s
[03:48] <Spliffster> ubuntu_noob, what's the problem ?
[03:48] <felixhummel> Broady, here: http://www.fifi.org/doc/grub-doc/html/grub_4.html#SEC21
[03:48] <realrhY> bash: sodu: command not found
[03:48] <Broady> Same thing?
[03:48] <kbidd> realrhY, sorry... thats sudo
[03:48] <Broady> where are these important 2 lines, felixhummel ? :)
[03:49] <kbidd> realrhY mistyped there
[03:49] <ubuntu_noob> spliffster, I can't get my download speed to max out...
[03:49] <realrhY> ok, I'm root@ubuntu now!
[03:49] <realrhY> feel the power!
[03:49] <felixhummel> Broady,  http://www.fifi.org/doc/grub-doc/html/grub_4.html#SEC21
[03:49] <IdleOne> oh my god watch out
[03:49] <Spliffster> ubuntu_noob, then it is probably a problem that the other peers do not provide enough download speed.
[03:49] <kbidd> realrhY after that, use > mkdir /mnt/root
[03:50] <Dimensions> Hiya Does any one know of a USB W/ Adaptor which works in ubuntu without any driver installation etc
[03:50] <Zennor> kbidd: its a general problem of the installation^^ I didn't reached the stadium where it is important to decide between kubuntu and ubuntu...
[03:50] <realrhY> now fdisk -l gave me a giant list.
[03:50] <felixhummel> Broady, wait! Do you boot from you  first or second hd (in bios)?
[03:50] <RoundyT1> I have a questoin.
[03:50] <kbidd> realrhY, followed by > mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/root
[03:50] <Broady> felixhummel: Ubuntu is the 3rd HDD, 2nd HDD is data, and 1st is XP
[03:50] <RoundyT1> How do I add a user---through being logged in as root?
[03:50] <skoenman> i need some help please
[03:50] <rockzman> does anyone know how to use internet behind isa server?
[03:50] <ubuntu_noob> spliffster, = = I don't think so...
[03:50] <simonsays> hey i downloaded a java jre5 thing (recommened from here) and the flash from repo, but youtube doesnt work, do i download the flash thing through the firefox browser or by some other means?
[03:50] <felixhummel> Broady, no. Where's the bootloader? From which drive do you boot?
[03:50] <bur[n] er> Dimensions: a usb what?  usb hub?  they all work without drivers
[03:50] <kbidd> realrhY, then cd /mnt/root
[03:51] <RoundyT1> How do I add a user---through being logged in as root?
[03:51] <ubuntu_noob> spliffster, it happens to every single tasks...
[03:51] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, man adduser (for the command line version) or in gnome it's under system/administration ... you do not need to be root
[03:51] <felixhummel> RoundyT1, adduser
[03:51] <Dimensions> bur[n] er:  i mentioned usb W Adaptor
[03:51] <RoundyT1> will it as for a password?
[03:51] <Broady> felixhummel: Not quite sure... definitely not the 3rd as i unplugged it and it still seemed to try to boot ubuntu, so perhaps the 1st
[03:51] <kbidd> realrhY then if you issue a ls command you should see the root directory structure if you picked the right partition
[03:51] <bur[n] er> Dimensions: wireless?  there are a few, but it's hard to find them
[03:52] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, passwd is used to set/change passwords on the commandline
[03:52] <kbidd> RoundyT1, if i remmeber correctly, adduser username will create a user with no pasword, and then you can do passwd username to change it's password
[03:52] <GionnyBoss> can you install SELinux for Ubuntu? in Fedora core there was by default
[03:52] <realrhY> i got nothing.  ls does nothing.
[03:52] <kbidd> realrhY, what did the mount command tell you? any error messages?
[03:52] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, so forst use adduser, then passwd ... or if you like klickedclick ... use the kde/gnome equvalent (gui version)
[03:52] <OrTigaS> hi when i'm miniming my window i dont see where it go?
[03:52] <realrhY> nope, they all worked.
[03:53] <felixhummel> Broady, presumably, grub wrote itself into the MBR of your primary master, but is (as the rest of ubuntu) installed on your sec. master. So you will need these two lines. :D
[03:53] <OrTigaS> sorry
[03:53] <Dimensions> yes bur[n] er ... if you know abt any USB Wireless Adapter ... which is auto detect in ubuntu as plug and play ?
[03:53] <realrhY> Cause I'm root and totally 7ee+
[03:53] <RoundyT1> so if i want to add a user with normal permissions (like default with ubuntu) and a password...what would i type?
[03:53] <simonsays> hey i downloaded a java jre5 thing (recommened from here) and the flash from repo, but youtube doesnt work, do i download the flash thing through the firefox browser or by some other means?
[03:53] <OrTigaS> hi when i'm minimizing my window i dont see where it go?
[03:53] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, $ sudo adduser <username> && sudo passwd <username>
[03:54] <realrhY> kbidd?
[03:54] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, passwd is interactive, it wil lask for the password twice
[03:54] <kbidd> realrhY, what does > pwd     return?
[03:54] <RoundyT1> dang, how do i exit a manual now?
[03:54] <jh> Hi all.  I was wondering if I could get some help with getting Ubuntu 6.10 to recognize that I'm running two processors?  I'm running on a Dell Latitude D820 Centrio Duo 2.0 GHz.
[03:54] <realrhY> /mnt/root
[03:54] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, q
[03:54] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, or ^C
[03:55] <Broady> felixhummel: I need ta lynes!!!
[03:55] <Broady> hehehe
[03:55] <Spliffster> Ctrl+C mostly works .. its just not very nice
[03:55] <bur[n] er> Dimensions: I forget them off the top of my head, but I think this has info...
[03:55] <kbidd> realrhY, and when you type > mount   does /dev/sdc1 mounted at /mnt/root
[03:55] <bur[n] er> ubotu: tell Dimensions about hardware
[03:55] <Broady> felixhummel: It was kinda painless installing it onto my brothers system, but he had it on the same drive, perhaps that is the way to go...
[03:55] <realrhY> that did all kinds of stuff.
[03:55] <jh> uname -a -->   2.6.17-11-generic #2 SMP Thu Feb 1 19:52:28 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:56] <simonsays> hey i downloaded a java jre5 thing (recommened from here) and the flash from repo, but youtube doesnt work, do i download the flash thing through the firefox browser or by some other means?
[03:56] <realrhY> i'm reading a whole screen of random shit.
[03:56] <bur[n] er> simonsays: you need flash 9... i'ts in the edgy-backports repository
[03:56] <bur[n] er> !backports
[03:56] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[03:56] <Spliffster> simonsays, $ sudo apt-get install flash-nonfree
[03:56] <Spliffster> should do the trick
[03:56] <kbidd> realrhY, the command mount by itself will return a list of mounted filesystems... was /dev/sdc1 listed as one of those?
[03:56] <simonsays> ok ty
[03:56] <bur[n] er> Spliffster: aren't hte ubuntu-backports necessary too if you're running edgy?
[03:56] <realrhY> yes!
[03:57] <realrhY> on /media/Moviez type ntfs
[03:57] <Spliffster> bur[n] er, simonsays: right. you need to activate backports to be able to install flash 9!
[03:57] <jh> From my understanding the generic kernel is suppose to support smp by default...but for some reason, cat /proc/cpuinfo only shows processor 0??
[03:57] <simonsays> how do i go about that?
[03:57] <realrhY> no wait, sorry, on /mnt/root type vfat (rw)
[03:57] <bur[n] er> !backports > simonsays
[03:57] <nazgjunk> hey, how'd i go about changing my locale?
[03:58] <bur[n] er> simonsays: listen to ubotu :)
[03:58] <nazgjunk> for some reason everything appears to be using en_au
[03:58] <Reuben> help: i need to set up the special buttons on my laptop keyboard
[03:58] <kbidd> realrhY, then you picked the wrong partition off of fdisk -l
[03:58] <nazgjunk> while i didn't exactly specify that
[03:58] <ryan_> how to upgrade to firefox 2.0 from 1.5
[03:58] <RoundyT1> what the crap....i tried to login and see if mysql is working and this is what it said "roundy is not in the sudoers file.
[03:58] <realrhY> kbidd: Oh.  So...? What am I doing then?
[03:59] <realrhY> Do you want me to run vncserver or something?  You can take over, I'm desperate.
[03:59] <bill_> RoundyT1, define "it"
[03:59] <Math^> hello, im searching for some program that can not only show from my tv-card, but also can capture from it
[03:59] <Grayyoga> does anyone know why my emacs couldn't activate rfc1345  input-method(which AFAIK is the default one)?
[03:59] <Spliffster> simonsays, add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list:
[03:59] <Spliffster> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[04:00] <Spliffster> simonsays, then run $sudo apt-get update; and from then one .. backports packages are available
[04:00] <kbidd> realrhY, if you set up a ssh server, and get port forward working, i'd be happy to take a look at it for you, but if you can't get grub working, no offense, but I doubt you'd be able to get the ports working properly.
[04:00] <Math^> realrhY: lol, why
[04:00] <bill_> RoundyT1, i.e.  "I ran the command 'mysql ...' and it said"
[04:00] <ryan_> how to upgrade firefox..somone plz help!
[04:00] <RoundyT1> ok so i input "sudo apt-get update" it outputs "roundy is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported"
[04:00] <ikaruga2099> hi all.... great work!
[04:00] <realrhY> I'm a n00b drowning in an ocean of foreign code.
[04:00] <jh> Any one with some suggestions?
[04:00] <simonsays> hmm im still new so that sounds a little tricky
[04:00] <bill_> RoundyT1, so is roundy in the sudoers file?
[04:00] <simonsays> il give it a go
[04:00] <ikaruga2099> just wanted to know if anyone has had success compiling rasterbator? (The forums seem to be silent on this)
[04:00] <realrhY> I just wanted beryl+3dworld.  *tear*
[04:00] <RoundyT1> bill_,  where do i edit that?
[04:00] <bur[n] er> RoundyT1: add that user to the admin group... or use the users & groups control panel thing to give the privelege of running admin tasks
[04:00] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, /etc/sudoers
[04:01] <bur[n] er> no no no
[04:01] <RoundyT1> I'm actually running a debian server
[04:01] <bur[n] er> don't edit /etc/sudoers... that's the hardcore, i use a term and wouldn't ask the question if I knew how to use a term answer
[04:01] <bur[n] er> users & groups gui tool is for newbies :)
[04:01] <bulmer> you dont use vi to edit /etc/sudoers  use visudo
[04:01] <bill_> in the sudoers file there should be a group defined, which is for admin users, and you'll want to make yourself a member of that group
[04:01] <Spliffster> bur[n] er, huh .. whats wwring with sudovi ?
[04:02] <Erb_> Is it possible to give permission to a remote server to access certain directories on my PC?
[04:02] <RoundyT1> bill_,  how do i add "roundy" to the admins?
[04:02] <rnY|pizza> kbidd: Thanks for the help, I'm going to attempt a reboot.
[04:02] <bur[n] er> Spliffster: you can hose yer system if you're not crareful
[04:02] <rnY|pizza> Though it seems fruitless.
[04:02] <bur[n] er> RoundyT1: you need to have another user than can use sudo first
[04:02] <Spliffster> bur[n] er, it won't block root logins .. so . no!
[04:02] <RoundyT1> bur[n] er, im logged in as root...(i know its bad)
[04:02] <bur[n] er> RoundyT1: run "users-admin"
[04:03] <kbidd> Erb_, yes, you can... ssh is the way that I usually choose to do it.
[04:03] <bur[n] er> RoundyT1: also found in the system -> administration -> users & groups
[04:03] <mikebeecham> Hi, it's me again....can anyone tell me if it's easy to remove the Ubuntu logo and replace it with the gnome foot?
[04:03] <RoundyT1> bur[n] er, NO gui --- debian "sarge"
[04:03] <bur[n] er> ohhhhhhhhhhh
[04:03] <RoundyT1> bur[n] er,  lol
[04:03] <bur[n] er> RoundyT1: Spliffster: ok Spliffster, you're all about it ;)
[04:03] <jink_> Hi
[04:04] <kbidd> Erb_, but you could also set up a samba server and access the directorys through windows shares if you're more comfertable with those
[04:04] <bur[n] er> RoundyT1: btw, this is #ubuntu ;)
[04:04] <RoundyT1> Spliffster, ok so what do i type.
[04:04] <jink_> Does anybody know how to use MY sql on ubuntu?
[04:04] <Zambezi> Anyone know why the preview in XScane is black? I have a Feisty and HP Scanjet 4370.
[04:04] <RoundyT1> bur[n] er, it's based off debian and i want to roll out a ubuntu server later...

[04:05] <laptop> How can you update through terminal???
[04:05] <bur[n] er> laptop: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:05] <clustoizid2> sudo apt-get
[04:05] <Zambezi> Pici, Thanks.
[04:05] <jink_> hey bur[n] er how do i log in to their server
[04:05] <RoundyT1> So how do i add a user to the admins group? a.k.a "sudoers"
[04:05] <laptop> Plus, on the last update it broke my wireless notebook card
[04:06] <laptop> bur[n] er:  all of that together?
[04:06] <bur[n] er> laptop: sure, && just means to run the next command after the first one
[04:06] <Spliffster> RoundyT1, edit /etc/sudoers, at best use `visudo` but vi will work too (visudo will check the syntax to prevent master screwups). then add the following line: "usernam ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL" where you replace username with your username. save and exit ":wq". NOTE: this is pretty simple rule. it will allow the user to access all files with sudo with no password! it's risky. read man sudoers for finer grained control
[04:06] <kbidd> laptop, if you have configured the card through a module, you will need to reinstall it after upgrading your kernel.
[04:06] <alucard> im trying to make-kpkg some kernel sources that i configged and it keeps returning "nothing to be done" (im on ubuntu)
[04:07] <loca|host> how to convert ps documents to rtf or other readable documents except pdf
[04:07] <laptop> kbidd:  it actually wokred with stock drivers
[04:07] <bulmer> alucard you said you have done it several times, what did you do differently this time?
[04:07] <kbidd> alucard, then make cant find anything that needs to be rebuilt... to force a full rebuild, you could try a make clean... just make sure you realize what its doing
[04:07] <Erb_> kbidd - my host does not allow SSH, is there an alternative to share directories? Server and local are both Linux.
[04:07] <kbidd> laptop: hmmm... a little surprising that it would break then.
[04:07] <sogen> Hi can someone tell me how i can restart alsamixer settings ?
[04:08] <laptop> kbidd, exactly
[04:08] <kbidd> Erb_, there's always ftp or samba if you can't use ssh for some reason.
[04:08] <Spliffster> loca|host, you could print a ps file to the pdf printer. it isn't much different to ps anyways.
[04:08] <loca|host> Spliffster, need a ps2rtf or pdf2rtf converter
[04:09] <sipior> sogen: /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:09] <mikebeecham> Can anyone tell me if it's easy to remove the Ubuntu logo and replace it with the gnome foot?
[04:09] <alucard> kbidd, ive make-kpkg clean'd before my attempt to make-kpkg the sources, ive compiled several kernels and none of them worked until i compiled 2.6.20.4 with the --initrd flag and it worked, however i forgot to add in ethernet support for my nforce onboard ethernet so i couldnt use that image, after that i havent been able to make-kpkg
[04:09] <sogen> sipior: thx :D
[04:09] <sipior> sogen: np
[04:09] <rhYVNConWindowz> Ok, seriously, I have a USB flash drive, and if I could boot off of that, somehow, I could at least get Vista up and running, and try to fix Ubuntu.
[04:10] <Spliffster> loca|host, i used to have something like that ... i used it with ht://dig. you may check ht://digs faq .. they point to various converters.
[04:10] <RoundyT1> am i allowed to ask Mysql questions here?
[04:10] <alucard> bulmer and kbidd: ive make-kpkg clean'd before my attempt to make-kpkg the sources, ive compiled several kernels and none of them worked until i compiled 2.6.20.4 with the --initrd flag and it worked, however i forgot to add in ethernet support for my nforce onboard ethernet so i couldnt use that image, after that i havent been able to make-kpkg

[04:11] <voorhees86> hey people
[04:11] <voorhees86> any body can help if my problem
[04:11] <Spliffster> voorhees86, if you tell us what the problem is ?
[04:11] <rhYVNConWindowz> voorhees86, just ask!
[04:11] <kbidd> alucard, when you way you make-kpkg clean'd, i assume you did it immediatly before your make-kpkg attempt, right?
[04:11] <sogen> someone here using teamspeak i need some help to configure it :/
[04:11] <alucard> yah kbidd, immediately before
[04:12] <Spliffster> sogen, yes i do ... and it doesn't work well. it still uses oss. i have never got it working relaiably
[04:12] <soundray> RoundyT1: ask any question here that relates to problems running software under ubuntu. There is a #mysql channel which is better suited for specific questions, though.
[04:12] <kbidd> alucard, dont know then... unless the makefile is missing, but i would think that would give a different error.
[04:12] <tung> How do i turn off dynamic twinview in my xorg.config?
[04:12] <alucard> maybe its looking at a different config somehow?
[04:13] <alucard> kbidd: do you think it could be skipping over .config for some reason and going to some generic config
[04:13] <sogen> Spliffster: my problem is that i cant talk to ppl and i dont hear them
[04:13] <Erb_> kbidd - so Samba allows sharing of just linux systems. I don't use Windows at all. Is it the best solution?
[04:14] <RoundyT1> I need to figure out why I'm getting this error with MySQL = "Starting MySQL database server: mysqld" --- "...failed."

[04:14] <Spliffster> sogen, or IIRC Teamspeak client accesses /dev/dsp directly which is a bad idea. only one programm can access it at a time. alsa or esd should take care of that. but TS Client bypasses al sound layers and opens the device directly. if teamspeak is open, other programs might not be able to access your sound card
[04:14] <kbidd> Erb_, samba allows you to make a windows style share (using the windows filesharing protocol)... they can be shared from, and accessed from linux, although it is usually not considered the best way of doing so if you don't need windows support.  Should work though.
[04:15] <kbidd> well, im out for the night guys...
[04:15] <tung> How do i turn off dynamic twinview in my xorg.config?
[04:15] <Spliffster> sogen, hold on a sec .. .booting the other computer where it is installed and configured
[04:16] <simonsays> got flash working now, thanks guys
[04:16] <sogen> Spliffster: i also cant make my green light om
[04:16] <bulmer> alucard does it fail at make menuconfig or after that?
[04:16] <sogen> i tryed by button andnonthing
[04:17] <OrTigaS> hi when i'm minimizing my window i dont see where it go?
[04:17] <Erb_> kbidd: thanks
[04:17] <OrTigaS> theres nothing in panel :(
[04:17] <Spliffster> sogen, when TS Client is open, go to "Settings > Options". the default way to access the sound system is "OSS", this should be selected. if you do not have OSS installed or OSS is not running ... you may choose Other = /dev/dsp. this, however, will render all other sound input/output useless (ie. if you are playing on this computer od listening to music ... this will make trouble).
[04:17] <sogen> Spliffster: for example i set "push to talk" for ctrl then push and hold ctrl and my light dont turn on :(
[04:18] <Pici> OrTigaS: Do you have the window list applet on your panel?
[04:18] <soundray> OrTigaS: right-click the bottom panel and add the Window List applet
[04:19] <sogen> Spliffster: i have oss selected
[04:20] <sogen> deafult (oss /dev/dsp)
[04:20] <OrTigaS> thanks guys~
[04:20] <OrTigaS> i did it
[04:20] <sogen> Spliffster: it still dont works :(
[04:21] <Spliffster> sogen, it is also hardware dependent. you are better off asking in the TeamSpeak forum. i have a couple of friends ... all of them had strange problems with TS, none of them had the same problem though. so the problems are TS related ...
[04:21] <sogen> btw it was working good on that system
[04:21] <sogen> but i reinstaled team speak
[04:21] <sogen> and now it dont works
[04:21] <sogen> i have used uninstal script
[04:21] <Spliffster> sogen, reboot and it might work again. it has to do how TS tries to access your audiocard
[04:22] <mikebeecham> Can anyone tell me if it's easy to remove the Ubuntu logo and replace it with the gnome foot?
[04:23] <Spliffster> sogen, have you checked that input/output devices are not muted/disabled in the mixer panel ... i know .. that's trivial ... but always good to check

[04:30] <mikebeecham> Does anyone know how I can install drivers for my Audigy 4 soundcard?
[04:32] <Spliffster> mikebeecham, in linux usually drivers are not "installed" like iin other operating systems. eighter they ship with the kernel or you might find source code for that soudn card. in my case the audiogy card was working out of the box with edgy.
[04:32] <ferronica> Any one here please tell me how to mount USB Device???? :(
[04:32] <Spliffster> mikalaukka, have you checked the ubuntu wiki and google if your card is supported ?
[04:32] <mikebeecham> Spliffster: Thanks very much mate...I've been using Linux for a very short time, so I'm trying to figure it all out
[04:33] <Spliffster> mikalaukka, sorry this wasnt meant for you, i was directing it to mikebeecham

[04:34] <ferronica> bulmer: symbian operating system
[04:35] <kalpik> ferronica, which phone?
[04:35] <bulmer> ferronica: thats maybe a problem if Ubuntu does not recognize the file system it is on, just like my motorola, i does not recognize the format its on
[04:35] <ferronica> kalpik: nokia 7710
[04:35] <kalpik> does it support mass USB?
[04:35] <slone> kalpik, and nokia e60
[04:36] <bulmer> you can tell by the filename it recognize, it not near anywhere close to the filename i created on the cellfone
[04:36] <ferronica> kalpik: i use gnokii
[04:36] <bulmer> so it may even be the UTF-8 vs international or whatever
[04:36] <maitscha> where can i find the xorg-driver-fglrx package?
[04:37] <bulmer> rhYVNConWindowz: you can mount like  /dev/sda1
[04:38] <ferronica> kalpik: do you have any idea???
[04:39] <ferronica> kalpik: are you there????

[04:42] <bicycledaave> hi all. the edgy upgrade page said that apt-get upgrade is not recommended for reasons like packages being unexpectedly removed, apt crashing, etc. So how does the Update Manager(as recommended) works? It won't encounter like crashing problems?

[04:47] <Yodude> i have alittle question, i was trying to open the "C:" windows partition on a computer at school, and i got an error message saying " you do not have the permission to view this folder". How can i override those permissions, using chmod in the terminal or sudo something?
[04:48] <yeti> Yodude: you have sudo access on your school computers?
[04:48] <neozen> !repeat> yodude
[04:48] <bulmer> Yodude: you tried asking the principal yet?
[04:48] <clustoizid2> sudo chmod a+rw
[04:48] <Yodude> yeti: what do you mean?
[04:49] <Yodude> bulmer: nono you got me wrong i just need to access a file
[04:49] <Yodude> bulmer: i'm not trying to erase windows or anything
[04:49] <yeti> Yodude: pupils don't have root access on school computers in general. and there's a reason for that
[04:49] <bulmer> Yodude: yes yes, you asked the principal for permission to access that directory?
[04:50] <Yodude> yeti: no  i am not using ubuntu installed i was just using the LiveCD
[04:50] <parag0n_> i assume he's running a livecd on the (normally windows) PC
[04:50] <Camaxtli> Yodude: Boot with a liveCD and then mount the volume
[04:50] <Pici> Yodude: What bulmer is saying is, we're not going to help you break into some computer at your school.
[04:50] <Yodude> i mounted it but i can't access C: because of the permissions
[04:51] <yeti> that's obviously cracking a system, i hope noone is going to help him on that one.
[04:51] <ferronica>  usb device that i am tryin to connect is nokia 7710. lsusb output showing --->Bus 004 Device 007: ID 0421:041c Nokia Mobile Phones
[04:51] <Clint_> oh shit
[04:51] <Yodude> Pici: non it's our computer, means in the" "foyer" or the place where we go when we have free hours
[04:51] <Yodude> lol you got me all wrong
[04:51] <Camaxtli> yeti: The "cracking" part of it is so obvious that even a small child can do it ;)
[04:51] <Spliffster> Camaxtli, Yodude, bulmer: if it is an ntfs partition, you must use the ntfs-3g driver or you will not get write access. i am not sure if this driver is shipped with the livecd kernel (it would make sense ... but its not default in the installed version so i doubt it's on the live cd)
[04:52] <yeti> Yodude: so you need access to a file on the C: windows partition. why not just start windows then?
[04:52] <yeti> Camaxtli: he obviously can't ;)
[04:52] <Camaxtli> Spliffster: He probably needs only read :)
[04:52] <Yodude> even in Windows it doesn't let me
[04:52] <Yodude> they changed something in the settings
[04:52] <yeti> well if windows won't let you then there's a reason for that, huh?
[04:53] <Yodude> yes to not let people break windows
[04:53] <Yodude> but i am not trying to that here
[04:53] <Camaxtli> Windows is broken per default.
[04:53] <bulmer> lolz
[04:53] <Camaxtli> Giving every user root per default is insane.
[04:53] <Yodude> Camaxtli: lol yeah that's a good point!
[04:53] <Yodude> man if i wanted to break windows i can do it without ubuntu
[04:53] <Yodude> i know a million ways
[04:54] <Yodude> i just need to access C: from linux, can you help please?
[04:54] <s0me_assh0le> don't we all
[04:54] <Spliffster> Yodude, yeti. if windows prohibits read access to a partition .. then it is done on application level (the system still needs to read these data and userland programs need to access certain features too) so windows not allowing to access a partition should not prohibit linux to access it.
[04:54] <Yodude> i don't know
[04:54] <Yodude> it just give me that error
[04:54] <Yodude> is there a command i can add "sudo" to that can open a directory?
[04:55] <Spliffster> what error message (exactly) ?=
[04:55] <Yodude> maybe that will do the trick

[04:56] <tsurc> hi, what program/scrip is called when a user goes to System->Quit... on Dapper?
[04:56] <dyrne> trying to determine the easiest software for poeple to use in constructing an internal knowledge base or wiki.  anyone have recommendation?
[04:57] <Spliffster> Yodude, have you tried to access it in a shell? this would give yo ua more meaningfull error message than gnome's
[04:57] <s0me_assh0le> tsurc:  if I remember correctly it switches to runlevel 6 and goes through the scripts in that runlevel's directory
[04:57] <Yodude> Spliffster: well what's the command for opening a directory?
[04:58] <Spliffster> Yodude, `cd /media/yourdrive/`replace yourdrive with the name of the hd partition
[04:59] <Yodude> i actually want to see the files in Nautilus
[04:59] <Camaxtli> Yodude: Root mounted it, you'll need to access it as root or set read permissions for all users.
[04:59] <s0me_assh0le> ntfs-3g never works right for me so I gave up on it; I'll probalby try again some other time when I don't have anything better to do.
[04:59] <Yodude> don't you think using chmod will be good?
[04:59] <Spliffster> Yodude, you actually want to know what the problem is, so you could fix it?
[04:59] <s0me_assh0le> chmod won't work on ntfs
[04:59] <_filippo_> does anybody know how to change gdm username font?
[04:59] <Yodude> no i just want to be able to see the files
[04:59] <Spliffster> Yodude, chmod works un unix-ish filesystem, not on windows/ms filesystems
[05:00] <tsurc> I want to put a Quit button in the applications menu for our Canteen staff. I'm getting rid of their old Win95 machine
[05:00] <Spliffster> Yodude, if you want help me debugging your problem i can't hel you sorry. hire a technichian .. he'll solve your problem. spoiled kid. next.
[05:00] <s0me_assh0le> if you think it's a permissions issue you'll need to hook up the drive to another windows-based system, go into that folder's properties, and take ownership of the folder/files you want to gain access to.
[05:00] <Camaxtli> Yodude: The quick risky option of reading it after it's mounted (And usuably by root only) would probably something along the lines of "gsudo nautilus"
[05:00] <Noca> hey
[05:00] <Noca> i'm trying to update from hoary to breezy

[05:01] <Noca> doesn't work
[05:01] <Noca> ;/
[05:01] <s0me_assh0le> Spliffster: tough love, eh?  :)
[05:01] <Yodude> Camaxtli: will that be able to see a non-permissioned prtition?
[05:01] <Spliffster> s0me_assh0le, no comment. i am too old for this.
[05:01] <Camaxtli> Yodude: It gives you a file brower as root
[05:01] <s0me_assh0le> hehehe been there; done that.  Usually before my second cup of coffee
[05:01] <clustoizid2> @Noca just sudo...
[05:02] <Camaxtli> Yodude: Or in other words, you'll browse the files as root which basically means you have access to everything.
[05:02] <tsurc> so I need to know which script, rather that what it does
[05:02] <Yodude> Camaxtli: but C: does not even belong to root, do you mean root here indicates superuser with superpowers?
[05:02] <Camaxtli> Yodude: You mounted it with sudo right?
[05:03] <Noca> cheers clustoizid ~_~
[05:03] <Yodude> Camaxtli: man i'm loving linux more n more, that can help me crack my windows if compromised or messed up!
[05:03] <Spliffster> Camaxtli, he is using a livecd. its mounted "automagically" ... with some voodoo
[05:03] <Spliffster> :-P
[05:03] <Yodude> yes of course with sudo mount -a
[05:03] <Camaxtli> I don't like automounters. ;)
[05:03] <c1|freaky> im currently running kubuntu feisty - can i do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop to get gnome and try it but in a way so it doesnt change anything like bootsplash, kdm etc.?
[05:04] <Yodude> remembeer this is liveCD so i have to do it again everytime it's not automatic
[05:04] <aldarsior> Does adding something to crontab take effect immediately?
[05:04] <maitscha> how can i install the fglrx driver?
[05:04] <Spliffster> c1|freaky, i am not sure about the boot splash (i don't think so) ... you should have the option upon login (which still should be kdm) to select your session. i ddi it the other wy round (on dapper) and it worked nice
[05:04] <Toma-> c1|freaky: feisty isnt out yet in final form so its still unsupported. but yes. or gnome-desktop i think works too
[05:04] <Camaxtli> Yodude: You did sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt  or something like that?
[05:05] <Yodude> camaxtli: no i did the way wich edit fstab
[05:05] <maitscha> apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx does not work
[05:05] <c1|freaky> Spliffster: ok, thankyou :)
[05:06] <DBFT> hey, is there any way of forcing an install to get the required files online instead of from the ubuntu cd? (i've kinda lost it :P)

[05:06] <Yodude> btw the greatest ubuntu thing happened today, anyone wanan hear it?
[05:06] <gordonjcp> let's hear it...
[05:06] <Camaxtli> They added the Gentoo Docs to the CD
[05:06] <Camaxtli> ?
[05:06] <Toma-> DBFT: just disable the cdrom in /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:07] <Yodude> i went on windows to play some games, and i noticed that they formatted it and removed all those games n music
[05:07] <Yodude> so what i did was enter Ubuntu to save the day n let me have some fun with it's games
[05:07] <Yodude> and guess what, my firend saw me
[05:07] <vieirar> Hi I have nvidia drive loaded and working however, the cursor shadows do not show up. Do they only work on certain cursors?
[05:08] <Yodude> he asked me "what is this"
[05:08] <Toma-> vieirar: yep
[05:08] <s0me_assh0le> speaking of which, I'm a gentoo veteran who switched to ubuntu awhile back; what's the command to access and build source DEB's, and would I use /etc/profile or another file to store the CFLAGS variables?
[05:08] <Yodude> i told him it's Linux, ( he knows about it cuz i was explaining what it is to the class the other week)
[05:08] <vieirar> Toma-, Ok thanks
[05:08] <DBFT> trying Toma- :p
[05:09] <vlad> you go Yodude :)
[05:09] <Yodude> so he saw me playing these games n having fun n he looked at the interface and he told me
[05:09] <Toma-> !enter | Yodude
[05:09] <ubotu> Yodude: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:09] <Toma-> :)
[05:09] <Yodude> "i like it"
[05:09] <Yodude> !!!!
[05:09] <Toma-> Yodude: show him a video of beryl?
[05:09] <Camaxtli> s0me_assh0le: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=07/02/21/1546215
[05:09] <Yodude> k. so he began telling me how windows is always giving him errors n stuff
[05:09] <DBFT> it worked, go Toma- ;)
[05:09] <s0me_assh0le> excellent; thanks!
[05:09] <Yodude> Toma: i know i'm gonna show it to him sooon
[05:09] <Toma-> DBFT: sweet! :)
[05:10] <vlad> When Feisty comes out I'll really start working on converting people to Linux
[05:10] <Yodude> so i suggested he installs it n told him he can even run windows apps
[05:10] <Toma-> hey s0me_assh0le... youre nick is against the CoC... change it or leave
[05:10] <Yodude> vlad: me too especially with virtualization
[05:10] <Camaxtli> s0me_assh0le: It details the entire package system. (It's a shame though that portage doesn't come with binaries)
[05:10] <s0me_assh0le> um, okay
[05:10] <Yodude> but sadly he said he doesn't want to take the plunge right now
[05:10] <Toma-> !coc
[05:10] <s0me_schmuck> better?
[05:10] <Toma-> yes :)
[05:10] <ubotu> The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[05:11] <Yodude> but i'm sure he will eventually, he knows about tech a bit so he knows windows sucks
[05:11] <Toma-> this channel is G rated. keep it as Disney like as possible ;D
[05:11] <s0me_schmuck> sorry; the former is my nick during BF2 games :)
[05:12] <s0me_schmuck> windows has it's uses, just as linux and even osx does
[05:12] <Yodude> i'm also thinking of sending a letter to the principal telling him about ubuntu, especially snce the Frensch parliament moved to it recently ( we're a french school)
[05:12] <Yodude> i couldn't manage to get the technician to do it5 she's so micro$oftish
[05:13] <Toma-> Yodude: edubuntu is the best thing for schools. it really is quite nice now
[05:13] <vlad> The greatest barrier to converting people is that they have to have a separate disk partition to not risk losing any data
[05:13] <Zambezi> Something is wrong when I try to enter the password to the Gnomekeyring. Is it necassary to reinstall everything to inactivate it or reset the password?
[05:13] <Spliffster> s0me_schmuck, if you want to build your custom kernel... you might want to check `make-kpkg`. a very nice debian utility which makes it easy to build a kernel and generate a deb, so you can easily install/uninstall kernels. also, updating modules and the such is much easier with make-kpkg
[05:14] <vlad> I'm a gnome user - any reason I should try out KDE?
[05:14] <Toma-> vlad: nope. unless you want to try it out?
[05:14] <eth01> any ideas?? >>
[05:14] <eth01> ERROR: Could not find a suitable SSL library (GnuTLS, libnss or OpenSSL).
[05:14] <eth01>        This is necessary for MSN and full Jabber support.
[05:14] <Yodude> vlad: i wondering the same thing
[05:14] <apokryphos> vlad: Yodude: yes, you should try out both.
[05:14] <emefei> hi folks
[05:14] <Spliffster> vlad, no particular ... just try it. you can have both gnome and kde on your system. apt-get install kde-desktop. that's it
[05:15] <Toma-> KDE is a splendid DE. Just like Gnome
[05:15] <MetaMorfoziS> how can i dump my bluetooth communication?
[05:15] <dyrne> vlad: well its good to be familiar with the other big DE.  kde is more effecient at stuff.. *shrugs*
[05:15] <vlad> Spliffster: thx
[05:15] <s0me_schmuck> Spliff:  I just loved being able to make my own gentoo linux from stage 1 using custom CFLAGS settings (contrary to what people say I did see a difference doing it that way), but now stage1 (bootstrapping) is unsupported in Gentoo so what's the point?
[05:15] <avalon_> Hi guys
[05:15] <Yodude> apokryphos: gonna get kubuntu this holiday, that way i try it and i convert those friends of mine that digg pretty graphics
[05:15] <apokryphos> Yodude: you're already running ubuntu?
[05:15] <avalon_> Just popping in to see if anyone had gotten to try Feisty
[05:16] <apokryphos> avalon_: /msg ubotu feisty
[05:16] <Toma-> MetaMorfoziS: what are you trying to dump?
[05:16] <s0me_schmuck> I'm actually suprised differnet DEB packages/repositories aren't offered for different arch's
[05:16] <MetaMorfoziS> my bluetooth communication
[05:16] <apokryphos> s0me_schmuck: what?
[05:16] <MetaMorfoziS> something like irdadump
[05:16] <MetaMorfoziS> what i want...
[05:16] <touer> Does anyone know if it is true that Automatix will damage my ability to upgrade ubuntu? And if so, where can i find instructions to get the multimedia codecs and fonts and the like wihout it?
[05:16] <apokryphos> !automatix | touer
[05:16] <ubotu> touer: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:16] <RoundyT1> why would my server not connect to the internet?
[05:17] <dyrne> touer: wiki.ubuntu.com or help.ubuntu.com search for restricted
[05:17] <apokryphos> touer: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[05:17] <Toma-> !easyubuntu | touer
[05:17] <ubotu> touer: easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[05:17] <touer> thanks.
[05:17] <Spliffster> s0me_schmuck, i haven't used gentoo for years. i liked the idea of building it all from source (optimisation) but in a real world environment (workin for an ISP at that time as developer) it is just a pain in the royal arse to wait for emerge to finish over and over again :D gentoo has surely its place in the embedded theatre. i wouldn't use it to run a server which should be available 24/7 :D but as it is with gnu/linux ... many der
[05:17] <Spliffster> ivate .. every single one is filling a gape
[05:18] <RoundyT1> My Laptop is on the same network as the server, yet the server won't connect to the internet---any ideas?
[05:18] <Toma-> MetaMorfoziS: so you want raw bluetooth info spewed into the terminal?
[05:18] <MetaMorfoziS> yes, something like that
[05:18] <Yodude> btw just a question: why is the GAIM included in ubuntu Beta sofwtare, you guys should include the stable version
[05:18] <MetaMorfoziS> cli is not recommended, gui is not problem
[05:18] <MetaMorfoziS> but yes...
[05:18] <flint> RoundyT1, go to the /etc/  directory and grep for your laptop name, then change the name.
[05:19] <s0me_schmuck> Spliff:  I used to sugget gentoo to people who were PC-savvy who wanted to learn linux -- if nothing else it does force you to learn the workings of a linux system
[05:19] <RoundyT1> flint, what do you mean? why would that help?
[05:19] <Toma-> MetaMorfoziS: well theres 2 paths. you can take the road that will lead to a program accessing it, or you can make a dev entry for your bluetooth device then start doing crazy with cat
[05:19] <DBFT> how do i delete a directory and all files/subdirectories from command line?
[05:19] <flint> RoundyT1, you need to change the name of your laptop eh?
[05:19] <Toma-> DBFT: rm -r
[05:20] <RoundyT1> flint, nope, my laptop is fine, my server can't get on the network for some reason, but my laptop is on the same network and working just fine...
[05:20] <Spliffster> s0me_schmuck, i have been using gentoo after working on bsd systems for some years. bsd*'s port trees usefull. that's why i tried gentoo. IIRC at that time only a stage 1 install was possible and this is what turned me away ... i wanted a binary base system.
[05:20] <touer> Ihave installed easyubuntu but it will not open, does anyone know why?
[05:20] <Toma-> touer: you need to run 'gksudo easyubuntu'
[05:20] <emefei> RoundyT1: Did your server obtain an IP-Adress and is reachable via Network?
[05:20] <soundray> DBFT: rm -rf /path/dir
[05:20] <vlad> what's the difference between sudo and gksudo?
[05:20] <RoundyT1> emefei, good question it is like 10.0.1.54 ----i can ssh into the server?
[05:21] <soundray> !gksude | vlad
[05:21] <DBFT> :) thankie :D
[05:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gksude - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:21] <Toma-> -f isnt needed :(
[05:21] <s0me_schmuck> Spliff:  I thought about checking out the LFS project as a learning experience, but I'm not sure I'm that much of a masochist...  :|
[05:21] <soundray> !gksudo | vlad
[05:21] <ubotu> vlad: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application> 
[05:21] <Yodude> !gksudo | vlad
[05:21] <emefei> good, if you can ssh to it, then it is obviously reachable
[05:21] <RoundyT1> emefei, ya, i can ssh into it. so i assume that works just fine
[05:21] <flint> RoundyT1, ah indeed, I misunderstood your post...  the server is a linux something eh?  When did it last work?
[05:22] <soundray> Toma-: do you happen to know the background of that? rm -r used to work only on empty directories...
[05:22] <Spliffster> s0me_schmuck, yes, gentoo is brilliant for learning purposes! i loved it for that aspect. and well, I have never heared about LFS :'(
[05:22] <MetaMorfoziS> Toma-: how can i do the cat version? I get this after insert the usb bt dongle : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12166/
[05:23] <Toma-> soundray: its safer?
[05:23] <RoundyT1> flint, lol funny you ask, it was running fine and i started a ping and stuff and didn't know how to stop it (so i was a noob and hit Ctrl alt delete) and it shutdown and came back on, now my internet site wont work as well as the "sudo apt-get update" command --it says "failed" every time
[05:23] <s0me_schmuck> Spliff:  Linux From Scratch (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/) ; think gentoo without portage.  It's literally getting the source code yourself and building it.
[05:23] <Spliffster> s0me_schmuck, oh LFS looks like a good idea for appliances/embedded systems ...
[05:23] <Toma-> soundray: and i guess people just didnt have trees of empty directorys
[05:24] <flint> RoundyT1, <ctl> c will stop a ping.  Can you go to the server and have it ping itself?
[05:24] <Spliffster> yay ... my virtual feisty just booted the first time .. .gotta explore it
[05:24] <RoundyT1> one sec
[05:24] <soundray> Toma-: I don't think it's safer. 'rm -rf' for me was the synonym of "I really mean to delete all this stuff"
[05:24] <quaal> does anyone know about creating raid1 arrays with mdadm? i just created it, made the partition, it said i had to reboot to update the partition tables, i rebooted and now /dev/md0 is not there anymore. it disappeared.
[05:24] <Yodude> hey did anybody hear from DELL again? i hope they decided to pre-install linux after all
[05:24] <RoundyT1> flint, --- 127.0.0.1 ping statistics ---
[05:24] <RoundyT1> 11 packets transmitted, 11 received, 0% packet loss, time 9997ms
[05:24] <RoundyT1> rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.012/0.019/0.059/0.013 ms
[05:25] <Spliffster> Yodude, they said they will, but it will take some time
[05:25] <Toma-> soundray: sometimes its safe to question your own sanity with the rm command :)
[05:25] <anabelle> Hi, im unable to download torrents with ktorrent....
[05:25] <flint> RoundyT1, that is actually interesting... what is the IP address of the server?
[05:25] <charles> can someone tell me how long it is till feisty gets released??
[05:25] <touer> when I attempt "gksudo easyubuntu" i get an error. Unable to determine desktop environment, falling back to gksudo
[05:25] <s0me_schmuck> Yodude:  don't hold your breath; gateway played around with that idea for years when I worked there.
[05:25] <Yodude> hopes so ttough
[05:25] <RoundyT1> flint, 10.0.1.54
[05:25] <Mrgreen2> Hi, I'm new to Linux and I wondering if ubuntu supports a dual monitor setup.  I tired it once before but gave up on it.  From what I can tell on the web it's possible but still complicated.
[05:25] <hanbush> hey guys, the wine chan is dead, does anybody know how to run a cmd file in wine?
[05:25] <anabelle> Hi, i mounted a new partition /media/Downloads and i want ktorrent to download files and keep temps in this partition.
[05:25] <anabelle> So i changed in ktorrent's preferences to keep temps in /media/Downloads/Ktorrent/temp and downloads in /media/Downloads/Ktorrent
[05:25] <anabelle> But now, when i add a torrent i get this error:
[05:25] <anabelle> "No se puede crear el enlace simblico de /media/Downloads/Ktorrent/temp/tor0/cache a /media/Downloads/Ktorrent/Waking.Life.LiMITED.DVDivX-QiX.avi: Operacin no permitida"
[05:25] <anabelle> Can't create simbolic link, operation forbidden, i've set the permissions to the partition so that anyone can rwx and its working fine. But ktorrent doesn't work.
[05:25] <anabelle> What can i do to fix this?
[05:25] <Spliffster> Yodude, as s0me_schmuck ... it's probably only a way to get cheaper windows licenses for dell. i am not sure if they are serious.
[05:25] <RoundyT1> flint, internal ip= 10.0.1.54 external ???idk
[05:25] <quaal> anabelle, you cant be serious.
[05:26] <soundray> Toma-: the point is, 'rm -r' now deletes things that formerly it would not have. That's not safer.
[05:26] <anabelle> why?
[05:26] <anabelle> quaal why?
[05:26] <Toma-> soundray: ok.
[05:26] <flint> ok, can you ping 10.0.1.54?  Does this server have two ethernet cards in it?
[05:26] <hanbush> anabelle: use pastebin.ca
[05:26] <s0me_schmuck> Spliff:  exactly:  every time Gateway talked about it, MS would throw a deal at them to get them to shut up.
[05:26] <Yodude> hey just the last question: do you know any app that can record video of my desktop? i would use it for recording beryl action
[05:26] <Yodude> "converting the world"
[05:26] <shaY-> hi @all
[05:27] <RoundyT1> flint,  not that i know of -- its a machine i took over as IT manager and the old it guy just left it all alone
[05:27] <shaY-> http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/77414/15/
[05:27] <soundray> Yodude: istanbul records desktop sessions, but I'm not sure whether it can deal with OpenGL stuff
[05:27] <flint> RoundyT1, what happens when you ping 10.0.1.54?
[05:27] <Spliffster> soundray, Yodude ... istanbul has problems with beryl
[05:27] <flint> RoundyT1, on the server that is...
[05:27] <RoundyT1> flint,  interestingly enough it does have a second ethernet card lol. im gonna try the sudo update really quick then i'll ping
[05:27] <shaY-> I have this blue screen on the first side. The man who has that problem says he did this with this software!http://www.ptdd.com./ How does it work?
[05:27] <Yodude> how about "recordmydesktop"
[05:28] <Spliffster> dunno
[05:28] <flint> RoundyT1, update will not hurt anything.  BTW what is the IP of your laptop?
[05:28] <ferronica> any one here tell me how to open sources text file??/
[05:28] <Toma-> Spliffster: you need the beryl plugin to record video, afaik
[05:28] <anabelle> ktorren is unable to create simblic links, may this be a permisions problem? http://pastebin.ca/410625
[05:28] <hanbush> hi, does anybody know how to open cmd.exe in wine?
[05:28] <s0me_schmuck> anyone know if there's a linux program to make animated menus for DVD's?
[05:28] <Spliffster> Toma-, ok .. tell Yodude ... he's looking for a solution to record beryl "in action[tm] "
[05:29] <RoundyT1> flint,  hmm...my ip...good question
[05:29] <Toma-> hanbush: you want a windows terminal in ubuntu?
[05:29] <charles> can someone tell me when feisty will be released
[05:29] <flint> RoundyT1, I suspect that you flipped the cables on the server when you unplugged them...
[05:29] <Toma-> Yodude: you need the beryl plugin to record video, afaik
[05:29] <gnomefreak> charles: april 27
[05:29] <hanbush> toma-: i need to run a cmd file
[05:29] <gnomefreak> give or take
[05:29] <Yodude> charles: 19th April
[05:29] <charles> thanks
[05:29] <Toma-> hanbush: well 'wine cmd.exe'
[05:29] <Yodude> afaik? k let's see
[05:29] <Toma-> in a terminal
[05:29] <touer> Charles : The beta is out, and i believe the date is april 27, but dont hold me to it.
[05:29] <gnomefreak> Yodude: when did it change to the 19th?
[05:29] <ferronica> gnomefreak: can you help me out???
[05:29] <gnomefreak> ferronica: no im leaving atm
[05:30] <RoundyT1> flint, possible, but i don't think its the problem because im still getting update errors from the repositories...(can't connect)
[05:30] <ferronica> gnomefreak: okay
[05:30] <MetaMorfoziS> Toma-: i have found the solution, if you interested: hcidump:)
[05:30] <Yodude> gnomefreak: ity didn't it always was 19th
[05:30] <flint> RoundyT1, anyway, the ticket here is to get your laptop to ping the server, and the server to ping the laptop.
[05:30] <charles> touer, yeah i tried the beta it was nice but it didnt detect my tv tuner so i put it down to being a beta with bugs (hence why im not using it now)
[05:30] <hanbush> toma-: i need to run a .cmd file, i dont need to open a terminal
[05:30] <flint> RoundyT1, is the server also the gateway?
[05:30] <ferronica> Toma: can you help me out???
[05:30] <Yodude> i'm so dying to get it
[05:30] <anabelle> http://ktorrent.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=8404 - This is the description of my problem
[05:30] <Toma-> MetaMorfoziS: rad. i was going to suggest opening an rfcomm port and just going nuts with that
[05:30] <Yodude> so Vista-Killer
[05:30] <mweichert> when I try "gdmflexiserver --xnest", I get an error "You do not seem to have the authentication needed for this operation. Perhaps your .Xauthority file is not set up correctly". Can anyone help me with that please?
[05:30] <flint> RoundyT1, is the server also the dhcp server?
[05:30] <s0me_schmuck> I know this is off-topic, but I've got the news on in the background and I just have to say this:  is it just me or will anyone else be glad when they stop talking about Anna Nichole Smith?
[05:31] <Toma-> ferronica: whats the problem?
[05:31] <touer> charles: yeah, it is semi-buggy
[05:31] <ferronica> Toma: regarding Nokia 7710 mobile,
[05:31] <Toma-> btw, im playing Cannon fodder 2 while im helping.
[05:31] <ferronica> Toma: ubuntu dont mount it what i do??
[05:31] <Toma-> ok..?
[05:31] <shaY-> http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/77414/15/ On the first side of this page there is a picture with a blue screen. I have the same bluscreen with Dual Boot after i install ubuntu. He says with this software he makes windows working. How does he did this? http://www.ptdd.com./
[05:31] <RoundyT1> flint, i don't believe so, i think the Microsoft servers take care of that. It runs our external site (www.roundy.net)
[05:31] <ferronica> Toma: its connected via USB cable
[05:31] <Toma-> ferronica: doesnt 'mount' it? has it got a memory card?
[05:32] <ferronica> Toma: yes there is memory card
[05:32] <flint> RoundyT1, Well, www.roundy.net is not loading...
[05:32] <Fantasma> hi guys i have a doubt. if i install ubuntu 7.04 beta is it easy to upgrade to the release version once it comes out?
[05:32] <Toma-> ferronica: can you put a copy of the output from 'dmesg' on pastebin?
[05:32] <Toma-> !pastebin
[05:32] <charles> I dont suppose anyone knows if feisty will have fixed the problems with wine and flash plugins that users of the 64bit version have had problems with?
[05:32] <deltron> anyone install from a usb thumb drive?
[05:32] <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)
[05:32] <Yodude> you're sure the beryl video capture plugin is "Afaik"?
[05:32] <ferronica> Toma: yes just a second
[05:32] <dcordes> how do i run dvdrtools?
[05:32] <RoundyT1> flint,  i couldn't ssh into it with it plugged into the "other" ethernet card....i switched it back
[05:32] <shaY-> can i install exe under ubuntu?
[05:33] <Yodude> afaik doesn't have any sense related to it
[05:33] <flint> RoundyT1, you need to get someone onsite.  Get someone there to help you onsite.  Good Luck.
[05:33] <Spark> is there a filesystem that will keep a local and remote copy of a directory tree in sync
[05:33] <Spliffster> charles, to be honest ... not only the 32bit problems of the flash plugin are solved yet (well it's macromedias problem ...)
[05:33] <Spark> sort of like nfs/smb/sshfs with heavy caching
[05:33] <dcordes> !wine | shaY-
[05:33] <Toma-> dcordes: its all commandline stuff. what are you trying to do?
[05:33] <ubotu> shaY-: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:33] <Spark> or like svn as a filesystem
[05:33] <Yodude> shaY: you can with wine. Though be areful it's still in development so it might not work
[05:33] <touer> shaY-: not unless you have wane setup.
[05:33] <Spark> but with automatic commits
[05:33] <emefei> RoundyT1: do you have a shell open on your server?
[05:33] <shaY-> kk thx
[05:33] <dcordes> Toma-: i'm trying to do command line stuff like burning a dvd with command line similar to cdrecord
[05:34] <s0me_schmuck> Spark:  afs?
[05:34] <hanbush> how do i mount a .mdf image in edgy?
[05:34] <dcordes> hanbush: same as iso
[05:34] <Toma-> dcordes: if you want to burn a dvd from command line (iso) id use growisofs
[05:34] <Zaqq> hi. can ubuntu run with 3D effects in any virtual machine?
[05:34] <Yodude> Toma: what was the name of that beryl video capture plugin
[05:34] <touer> Does anyone know why Synaptic defualts to a more primitive looking gtk+ theme?
[05:34] <dcordes> Toma-: okay i will check this out. but what about dvdrtools?
[05:35] <Toma-> Yodude: no idea. scout around the beryl website
[05:35] <dcordes> how do you use that
[05:35] <ferronica> Toma: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12167/
[05:35] <hanbush> dcordes: i cant mount it, i know i can use wine with alcohol 120 or daemon tools, but id rather have something native
[05:35] <RoundyT1> emefei, what do you mean? ....there's no gui
[05:35] <touer> Zaqq: in vmware workstation you can. What are you using?
[05:35] <Yodude> Toma-: k
[05:35] <pip> Hello ,I have installed Tango themes package,how can I use it ?
[05:35] <Spliffster> will the fineal feisty still have the turd brown default theme or is this not the final theme ?
[05:35] <Zaqq> Virtual PC 2007
[05:35] <Toma-> dcordes: theyre more for manipulation dvd formats and authoring i think
[05:35] <dcordes> hanbush: for me, it works with mount -o loop -t iso9660 dunno what mdf you got there...
[05:35] <touer> I dont believe you can. You are running ubuntu in virtual pc?
[05:35] <Zaqq> vmware workstation? u mean the paid version?
[05:36] <dcordes> Toma-: ok thanks for quick help
[05:36] <touer> yeah.
[05:36] <emefei> ok, but you are connected to the server? Try to execute "tracepath heise.de" and look at the results
[05:36] <Zaqq> :( so the vmware server free edition has no 3d supprt?
[05:36] <eth01> file:///home/tmarkey/bitlbee_1.0.3-1_i386.deb
[05:36] <Toma-> Spliffster: blubuntu will make it all blue. its a simple package to install. also, mind your language
[05:36] <eth01> opps
[05:36] <dk1447> Hello, I have a ext3 drive which is mounted in fstab, now I wish to mount a folder from that drive into a ftproot, and read from a guide om the forums it should be mounted in ftab as vfat is that correct?
[05:36] <touer> there is a free trial, and it may be possible in the free Vmware Server Console, but i have not found out how.
[05:36] <Spliffster> Zaqq, no vmware products have 3d support
[05:36] <eth01> how do i install netkit-inetd
[05:36] <Zaqq> i am about to setup ubuntu .. have read about changing to 16 million colors to avoid screen corruption
[05:36] <dcordes> Toma-: wait.. where can i get that growisofs?
[05:37] <hanbush> does anybody know how to mount a mdf file?
[05:37] <touer> Spliffster: Untrue, workstation has for a couple years, you simply have to activate it.
[05:37] <Spark> s0me_schmuck: is afs maintained?
[05:37] <RoundyT1> emefei,

[05:38] <touer> Workstation does it, it simply must be enabled.
[05:38] <Spliffster> touer, oh ... well, i must have slept. i have only been working with server products so far ... now i see why they can sell the "desktop" version
[05:38] <dk1447> Hello, I have a ext3 drive which is mounted in fstab, now I wish to mount a folder from that drive into a ftproot, and read from a guide om the forums it should be mounted in ftab as vfat is that correct?
[05:38] <touer> and it is imperfect.

[05:38] <ferronica> Toma: what is problem :(
[05:38] <ferronica> Toma: why ubuntu didnt mount it automatically????
[05:39] <Spark> s0me_schmuck: i read that already, doesn't answer the question
[05:39] <Toma-> ferronica: in theory it should be mounting automatically. strange that it wont. have you tried manually mounting it?
[05:39] <s0me_schmuck> Spark:  I can only give you a starting point I'm afraid -- I've never had the need for such filesystems myself.
[05:39] <Spark> ah, openafs is what i want
[05:39] <Spliffster> touer, http://www.vmware.com/support/ws5/doc/ws_vidsound_d3d_enabling_vm.html does it only work on windows (and for windows as guest) ?
[05:39] <ferronica> Toma: then?
[05:39] <ziro01> Hello
[05:40] <ferronica> Toma: you i have to mount manually???
[05:40] <Spliffster> s0me_schmuck, here's some info on 3d support in vmware. looks like its windows only (Direct3D) http://www.vmware.com/support/ws5/doc/ws_vidsound_d3d_enabling_vm.html
[05:40] <dcordes> Toma-: ok that's already installed out of the box. but how do i use it? the man looks a bit complicated. i have the iso of a computer game dvd here. how would i burn that?
[05:40] <ferronica> Toma: you mean i have to mount manully
[05:40] <touer> Spiffster: I don't know, i have only tried it with windows as geust. I thought it worked with other, i may have been wrong.
[05:40] <Toma-> ferronica: you can try. that way if it does mount, then its a udev problem that we can fix
[05:40] <theacolyte> Can't seem to find this on your website easily, what version of mysql does 6.10 server come with? 4 or 5?
[05:40] <cjsoftu1> Issue with ACPI: Fan is at 100%, can't change it.  Any ideas?

[05:41] <cjsoftu1> custom
[05:41] <s0me_schmuck> Spliff: it is, and it's for the workstation version of VMWare only.  I've been told that right now it's a feature they're working on and it only works about half the time
[05:41] <dcordes> cjsoftu1: sounds interesting. how do you set the fan speed?
[05:41] <ferronica> Toma: can you please help me in mounting manually.....
[05:41] <cjsoftu1> i'm trying to echo to /proc/acpi/fan/FAN/
[05:41] <ferronica> Toma: I dont know how to mount manually :(

[05:42] <theacolyte> cjsoftu1: what kind of motherboard?
[05:42] <Spliffster> s0me_schmuck, i have read something on /. about 3d support (hw emulation) is in the works. i hope it'll be available.
[05:42] <Toma-> dcordes: thats from the examples in the man pages

[05:43] <O_Shekinah> Hi!
[05:43] <Spliffster> s0me_schmuck, well you could use wvista with even less perfomance ... or ... ummm get a hard on while looking at beryl rotating desktops in your vm ... muwhahaha
[05:43] <dcordes> Toma-: :-( unable to WRITE@LBA=220h: Input/output error

[05:44] <ferronica> Toma: error ---> mount: you must specify the filesystem type

[05:44] <ubotu> mikebeecham: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:44] <ferronica> Toma: :(
[05:44] <Toma-> ferronica: ahh.
[05:44] <s0me_schmuck> dcordes:  what DVD are you attempting to make an image of?
[05:44] <theacolyte> cjsoftu1: often what I've done for fan control is found the linux drivers for the motherboard, it usually has acpi information so it doesn't run at 100%. For instance, I had to do it for my Dell and HP servers
[05:45] <Toma-> ferronica: i hope nokia doesnt use some whacky proprietry format
[05:45] <dcordes> s0me_schmuck: i want to burn an image to a dvd
[05:45] <Toma-> "* gnomefreak gone"
[05:45] <Toma-> :P
[05:45] <cjsoftu1> theacolyte: small issue there, I can't seem to find the drivers
[05:45] <theacolyte> Anyone know what version of mysql 6.10 server comes with? 4 or 5?
[05:45] <gnomefreak> Toma-: i typed it
[05:45] <ferronica> Toma: what that mean ???
[05:45] <s0me_schmuck> cdrdao should work fine for that depending on the image; usually I'll use K3B myself
[05:45] <Toma-> oh ok ;)
[05:45] <gnomefreak> its not away message
[05:45] <dcordes> s0me_schmuck: looking for a CLI program here
[05:46] <Toma-> gnomefreak: it was just great timing that it happened at the same time
[05:46] <Toma-> ferronica: 1 moment
[05:46] <s0me_schmuck> what format is the image?  iso?  bin?
[05:46] <dcordes> iso
[05:46] <cjsoftu1> theacolyte: it's an NForce3 250 chipset
[05:46] <ferronica> Toma: ok
[05:46] <sevo> hi! i just plugged in a usb stick and my edgy eft recognizes it as cdrom and wont write on it. even if i mount it manually.  any ideas what could be the cause?
[05:46] <s0me_schmuck> cdrecord?  if I remember correctly there's a curses-based frontend to it as well that might make things easier
[05:46] <ferronica> Toma: will i am able to use my nokia 7710 in ubuntu 6.06 LTS :(
[05:47] <dcordes> s0me_schmuck: cdrecord told me it can
[05:47] <dcordes> it can't burn dvd
[05:47] <ferronica> Toma: because ubuntu is my primary operating system :)
[05:47] <dcordes> s0me_schmuck: because of GPL conflicts with DVD
[05:47] <ferronica> Toma: i quiet windows Xp pro. :)
[05:47] <s0me_schmuck> there's a version out there you can grab that supports DVD writing; lemme see if I can find the URL
[05:48] <mikebeecham> Down with Windows....it sucks big time...I am so impressed with linux after a week
[05:48] <dcordes> s0me_schmuck: thanks. maybe you can get me a deb compatible to edgy?
[05:48] <O_Shekinah> Who change the TTL of my linux?
[05:48] <cjsoftu1> theacolyte: any ideas on my ACPI?
[05:48] <Toma-> dcordes: have you got DMA enabled on your DVD drive?
[05:48] <sevo> dcordes, it's called cdw
[05:48] <dcordes> Toma-: what's that?
[05:49] <s0me_schmuck> dcordes: beggars will be choosers, eh?  Just kidding, gimme a sec...
[05:49] <dcordes> Toma-: i pretty much have a clean edgy install here
[05:49] <theacolyte> cjsoftu1: did a look, couldn't find anything good :( Sorry about that
[05:49] <dcordes> s0me_schmuck: ^^ no hurry thanks
[05:49] <O_Shekinah> I want change my TTL (of linux) for response 128.
[05:49] <Toma-> dcordes: does 'hdparm /dev/dvd' return that DMA is on 1?
[05:50] <cjsoftu1> theacolyte: ok, looks like a fan controller then... second thing with ACPI, my Dell 4600 doesn't show ANY ACPI devices.
[05:50] <mikebeecham> One question...how do I install fonts in Ubuntu?
[05:50] <mikebeecham> !fonts
[05:50] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[05:50] <dcordes> Toma-:  using_dma    =  1 (on)
[05:50] <cjsoftu1> theacolyte: if I modprobe acpi, I get FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko): No such device
[05:51] <dcordes> Toma-:  HDIO_GETGEO failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[05:51] <Toma-> ferronica: ok, im stumped. can you get a media card reader and just use that till you upgrade? im sure the next version will have it fixed :/
[05:51] <Toma-> dcordes: ok thats all fine
[05:51] <dcordes> nice
[05:51] <morpheus74> Hello.  I have 2 computers running Ubuntu (1 -6.06, 1-6.10).  How can I network these two computers so I can access the files from one on the other?
[05:52] <dcordes> !ssh | morpheus74
[05:52] <Toma-> morpheus74: NFS. just go to... System>Prefs> SHared Folders
[05:52] <ubotu> morpheus74: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[05:52] <s0me_schmuck> dcordes:  have you tried 'apt-get install dvd+rw-tools'?
[05:52] <dcordes> s0me_schmuck: i have that package installed
[05:53] <s0me_schmuck> hmm alright then you have the right software... I'm assuming your DVDR drive is IDE?
[05:54] <dcordes> s0me_schmuck: yeppers. samsung
[05:54] <cjsoftu1> theacolyte: any ideas why I can't load acpi_cpufreq?
[05:54] <Pitze> Hi! When installing ubuntu, what is the root password?
[05:54] <morpheus74> I'm prompted to install 'sharing services'.  NSF is for sharing with other unix pc's, and SMB is for sharing with Windows machines, right?  Are NSF and SMB protocalls?
[05:54] <Toma-> dcordes: just for a larf, try disabling DMA to the drive and try the growisofs command again
[05:54] <theacolyte> morpheus74: yes

[05:56] <dcordes> ^^
[05:56] <Pitze> soundray: ok.. but I don't really know how to use sudo.. what should I write more than sudo?
[05:57] <mikebeecham> Pricechild: thanks :D....cannot seem to find any options in nVidia for dual monitor
[05:57] <PriceChild> !twinview
[05:57] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead

[05:57] <soundray> Pitze: "sudo command" - that's all
[05:57] <PriceChild> mikebeecham, you want to use "twinview"
[05:57] <theacolyte> xinerama =! twinview
[05:57] <soundray> !sudo > Pitze, read ubotu's private message please
[05:57] <PriceChild> theacolyte, I know... twinview makes nvidia nice though :)
[05:57] <mikebeecham> Do I need to download that, or is it available through Synaptic?
[05:57] <Toma-> dcordes: try this... "growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=2 -Z /dev/dvd=whatever.iso"
[05:58] <sevo> any idea why my ubuntu automount a usbstick without write protection read-only on /media/cdrom?
[05:58] <ubernewb> hey all, i'm trying to add a harddrive and i'm using ubuntu edgy.. when i look at fstab it has the /dev/dsa remarked and there is a uuid=some long number
[05:58] <sevo> that's a faq
[05:58] <mikebeecham> PriceChild: Do I need to download that somewhere?
[05:58] <ubernewb> can i just add a line /dev/sdb /home/user/backup ext3 0 0
[05:59] <soundray> ubernewb: yes
[05:59] <PriceChild> mikebeecham, Nope. I'm not experienced with it though :)
[05:59] <ubernewb> why is there is uuid thing in fstab?
[05:59] <soundray> ubernewb: should be 0 1 and the end, though (explained in man fstab)
[05:59] <bedake> how do you add  a program/icon to the toolbar so when you click it will hide/unhide?
[05:59] <soundray> !uuid > ubernewb, read ubotu's private message please
[06:00] <Pitze> soundray: ok it worked. thnx for the help
[06:00] <ferronica> Toma: but my contacts are saved in phone memory
[06:00] <eulero> I've been trying to register as ubuntero but I couldn't. I uploaded my OpenPGP key to the server but I keep getting Launchpad could not import your OpenPGP key.
[06:00] <dcordes> Toma-: now it is doing something. should this give me a status?
[06:00] <PriceChild> eulero, which server did you upload to?
[06:00] <Toma-> dcordes: yes.
[06:01] <Toma-> (i think)
[06:01] <eulero> PriceChild: gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --send-keys
[06:01] <PriceChild> eulero, you may just have to wait for it to propogate
[06:01] <PriceChild> hmm
[06:01] <eulero> PriceChild: I thought that was the direct one.
[06:01] <mEck0> Are somebody here running a computer with 3GB DDR-DIMM?
[06:01] <eth01> bash: cd: bitlbee: Permission denied < im even using sudo ??
[06:02] <PriceChild> eulero, yeah should be fine me thinks... sure you have the fingerprint correct?
[06:02] <Peter77> quick question, I have about 5 kernels listed in my boot loader, can I/ do I need to uninstall some or just remove the grub entries for the uneeded ones?
[06:02] <PriceChild> eulero, have you tried querying the server to check your key's there?
[06:02] <brophat> Do all the programming tools get loaded by default with ubuntu; such as phython, perl, java, etc.......... ?
[06:02] <eulero> PriceChild: I get Error handling request: No keys found
[06:02] <osfameron> brophat: nope
[06:02] <PriceChild> Peter77, "sudo apt-get remove package" where package is the name(+version) of the installed kernel you want to rmeove - grub will update itself
[06:02] <PriceChild> eulero, well then you didn't upload it?
[06:03] <osfameron> brophat: well, python and perl might do, by virtue of being dependencies for various scripts
[06:03] <touer> Who here has tried the beta and what sort of results did you have?
[06:03] <frojnd> hello
[06:03] <eth01> bash: cd: bitlbee: Permission denied < im even using sudo ??
[06:03] <morpheus74> This maybe an elementary question, but when using ssh for remote login one pc needs ssh server installed, and one needs ssh client installed, right?  Does it matter which pc has server or client installed?
[06:03] <eulero> PriceChild: isn't running the command "gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --send-keys" enough to upload it?
[06:03] <stickman> anybody out there running ubuntu on an old imac?
[06:04] <frojnd> I have kubuntu and don't know how to stop xserver: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop ??
[06:04] <soundray> frojnd: yes
[06:04] <Innatech> morpheus: for most applications you need the standard client/server combination: an ssh client on the machine you're in front of, and an ssh server on the machine you want remote acccess to.
[06:04] <frojnd> oki
[06:04] <stickman> i'm curious if anyone has tried usb wireless with imac ubuntu.
[06:04] <frojnd> let's try

[06:05] <Supre_Me> Hello, I'm trying to setup the GUI called ghamachi for hamachi, but I get errors complaing about gtk something. Any ideas?
[06:05] <brophat> osfameron can you turn gnome off and just use the terminal with no window manager?
[06:05] <eulero> PriceChild: I solved by sending a specific key. Thanks a bunch for your help.
[06:05] <sevo> frojnd, you can also sudo invoke-rc.d kdm stop
[06:05] <cjsoftu1> Anyone got any ideas why a Dell Dimension 4600 can't load acpi_cpufreq?
[06:06] <soundray> cjsoftu1: no, but I have the same problem
[06:06] <osfameron> brophat: er... well, you can do anything.  The easiest way would be just press Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get that terminal session (Ctrl-Alt-F7 usually to take you back to the graphical session)
[06:06] <osfameron> brophat: but I guess you could script it not to bother starting up X.  If you really wanted to.
[06:06] <Innatech> anyone have any distro specific gotchas to share for building a Samba PDC with OpenLDAP on Ubuntu LTS?
[06:06] <cjsoftu1> soundray: nice to know i'm not the only one
[06:06] <digitalspaghetti> Can any tell me what the package is in aptitude to install php5 source code?
[06:07] <ferronica> PriceChild: will you help me out???
[06:07] <brophat> osfameron so ubuntu starts the gui at boot
[06:07] <sevo> osfameron, you can install the server flavour of ubuntu if you don't want X at all
[06:08] <soundray> cjsoftu1: I've reported a bug, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/84026
[06:08] <osfameron> brophat: ^^^^ what sevo said
[06:08] <soundray> cjsoftu1: see if it matches yours. I'll be away for a while
[06:08] <brophat> osfameron I use fluxbox and right in the menu I can switch to another window manager.
[06:09] <cjsoftu1> soundray: different box, same problem
[06:09] <zen> Is anyone else having "linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic" being held back?

[06:09] <eulero> how do I decrypt a gpg message that I received from Launchpad?
[06:10] <Shacker6363> I got it via BitTorrent and everytime I go to burn the .iso file, it fails miserably.
[06:10] <sevo> snaidis, i don't know but you can easily find out going to winehq.com and searching the app database for it
[06:10] <quaal> what is the equivalent of /etc/sysconfig/kernel in ubuntu?
[06:10] <theacolyte> !schedule > theacolyte
[06:10] <snaidis> yes but what about the .net framework?
 yes but what about the .net framework?
[06:11] <theacolyte> !mono
[06:11] <stickman> anybody successfully connected a dlink usb device to any imac running ubuntu?
[06:11] <ubotu> mono: Mono CLI (.NET) runtime. In component main, is optional. Version 1.1.17.1-1ubuntu7.1 (edgy), package size 1 kB, installed size 24 kB
[06:11] <brophat> I use fluxbox and it allows you to shut off fluxbox in the menu and the terminal that fluxbox is running on top of come up. So you are then in command line mode.
[06:11] <sevo> dunno ...it's not ubuntu related btw ^^
[06:11] <brophat> so if for any reason the wm breaks youi at least have terminal
[06:12] <gordonjcp> brophat: as opposed to hitting <CTRL><ALT><F1> ?

[06:13] <tony_> Camaxtli, there it is :) thanks
[06:13] <osfameron> is the answer to the question "why would I want to use another window manager?" basically "If you don't know why, then you don't want to" ?
[06:14] <Pici> brophat: Check what it depends on: http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/metapackages/ubuntu-desktop
[06:14] <Lunar_Lamp> How can I make sure I only install security updates on my Edgy Ubuntu server?
[06:14] <sevo> tony_, you can help youself next time by typing 'which azureus' into a console ;)
[06:14] <eilker> i have problem with time, it shows 22:06 but now it is 19:06 , when i try to set, i see that it is 19:06 , but display is 22:06 . any idea ?
[06:14] <snaidis> The wine rating about the VS2005 is "Garbage"...
[06:14] <snaidis> So I can't run it properly on UBUNTU
[06:14] <snaidis> I'v heard that there is way...
[06:14] <Lunar_Lamp> I'm sure I'll need to edit my sources.list, but I'm not sure how the file works well enough to make sure I only get security updates.
[06:15] <waxyfresh> is there a way to restart firefox without loosing any opentabs?

[06:20] <bXi> someone around who could help me with my firewall script ( http://pastebin.ca/410680 ) ?
[06:20] <tony_> Camaxtli, Sun java 5.0 Plugin + Runtime is installed, yes

[06:21] <elia> can anybody help me to recovery
[06:21] <brophat> FunnyLookinHat yeah but after a few drinking sessions it will be gone. I dunno, i think it should be navigatable from the main page.
[06:22] <Xbehave> kde has some transparency and i think there are a few eye candy interace things like pannels

[06:24] <brophat> FunnyLookinHat ok i think maybe I will.
[06:24] <tony_> Camaxtli, it is set to "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java", and the other alternative is "/usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1"

[06:30] <Prez> hello
[06:30] <Spliffster> mindstate, i don't know .. al i know is that you won't find an ubuntu with sch an old kernel ... ubuntu was not evene around then.
[06:31] <Spliffster> mindstate, what i want to say: you are asking at the wrong place, try #linux
[06:31] <mindstate> Spliffster, tried in there didnt get an answer lol

[06:32] <poolkey172> how do I uninstall xorg ?
[06:32] <Spliffster> cebrax, that's strange, i have an ipw2200bg in my laptop. i did not have to configure it .. it was working out of the box. sounds like a bug
[06:32] <Prez> someone have an IBM X60x running edgy?
[06:32] <brophat> I got my brother (windows user all his life) to load ubuntu last night. He said the speaker icon on his desktop have a big X through it. Does he have to run a configure tool to get his sound working?
[06:32] <Prez> X60s, that is
[06:33] <cebrax> Spliffster, after ages of scans with iwlist i am now managed to see my ap in list =) thanks for your interest on me :)
[06:33] <Prez> everything works beautifully, except when I resume from suspend to disk, sound is dead

[06:34] <mrpoundsign> er, kubuntu-desktop
[06:34] <brophat> mrpoundsign you like gnome more?
[06:34] <cebrax> Spliffster, do you know what is the command for enabling/disabling thru wired and wireless or such, i mean there was something like that that we configure... it may be a config file, do you know ?
[06:35] <jetsaredim> I just upgraded to feisty and my nvidia drivers are broken
[06:35] <Spliffster> cebrax, ipw2200* use binary firmware blobs ... if you have trouble ... it is helpfull to update the firmware manually .... 1 sec, seaching for the url
[06:35] <jetsaredim> how do I get them re-enabled?
[06:35] <mrpoundsign> brophat: yes.
[06:35] <cebrax> Spliffster, thanks
[06:35] <mrpoundsign> brophat: for the sake of this conversation :)
[06:36] <robinlinth> What's the website of the deskbar? Mine's acting really strange and there isn't ANY support for it
[06:36] <Spliffster> cebrax, i use network manager, resp. my own script. basicly what needs to be done: 1) disable wireless NIC, 2) change firewall config, 3) enebale wired NIC ... there are many ways to do this. my way is a bit special, since i use the same ip adreess on both interfaces. if you are using edgy, i can send you my script
[06:37] <cebrax> Spliffster, yes i use edgy.
[06:37] <Spliffster> cebrax, ok, will paste the script to the pastebin ... one sec ....
[06:37] <cebrax> Spliffster, thanks

[06:41] <eliran> hey
[06:41] <Spliffster> cebrax, check this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12177/ . in my case eth0 is my wired network card, eth1 is the 2200bg. if this script is called without any parameter it will open a dialog which asks you which interface to enable. otherwise you may call it with `interface eth1` and eth 1 is activated and firestarter is reconfigured accordingly. you might need to alter it to your needs.
[06:42] <ferronica> PriceChild: ubuntu unable to automount :(
[06:42] <Spliffster> cebrax, i'll be AFK 5

[06:49] <soundray> DavidHKMrPowers: yes, but it's offtopic here
[06:50] <ferronica> Spliffster: i thought you may help me
[06:50] <El_Fart0> Seppo, yup :)

[06:51] <h00t> kazuki: ok hold on
[06:51] <voorhees86> how i configure the hrz of my monitor, dpkg-reconfigure... whidout change the driver?
[06:52] <ferronica> Spliffster: ubuntu unable to mount it
[06:52] <h00t> kazuki: can't find the package
[06:53] <exoide> There's some channel to Linux programmers?
[06:53] <Spliffster> ferronica, duh i don't even own a nokia phone. sorry.
[06:53] <kazuki> h00t, you copy and paste that package name ? also make sure you have universe enabled and restricted
[06:53] <kbidd> voorhees86, you could take a look at X11.conf -- if my memory serves me correctly, you can do it there (That is, if you are talking about changing the refresh rate of the X windowing system).
[06:53] <ferronica> Spliffster: then just tell me how to mount usb device???
[06:54] <pookey> can anyone tell me what version number feisty is?
[06:54] <Animortis> 7.04?
[06:54] <voorhees86> kbidd yeah, but i whant to put 60hz but there are horizsync, and vertrefresh
[06:54] <nielfr> There is a thing I want to do with Ubuntu that just seems impossible: make it use WiFi.
[06:54] <Spliffster> ferronica, all i know is that the obex server is nice to use various mobile phones via bluetooth. if you have bluetooth you might give it a try (it wil lenable you to access it as block device, no special phone functions are available)
[06:54] <Shrimpy_> ferronica: i think i have somthing, hold on, and don't get your hopes up
[06:55] <Spliffster> ferronica, if you have not fiddeled with your installation, usb block devices are "automagically" mounted ... as long as udev understands the filesystem.
[06:55] <ferronica> Spliffster: from where do i download obex
[06:55] <kbidd> ferronica, if you go to CTR-ALT-F8, and look at the system messages when you plug in the usb device, you can usually capture the device name its using... My usb flash drive usually comes in as /dev/sdc... just mount it as > mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/usbmdeia
[06:55] <Seppo> El_Fart0, check your pm
[06:55] <Spliffster> ferronica, check in synaptic. it's called obex-server (just search for obex) AFAIK
[06:56] <El_Fart0> Seppo, didn't get one
[06:56] <adriangiron> hola
[06:56] <snez> exoide: you mean linux kernel programmers?

[06:58] <Pici> kazuki: Feisty support is in #ubuntu+1
[06:58] <kazuki> h00t, cool :D
[06:58] <LucidFox> my Edgy didn't automatically account for DST
[06:58] <LucidFox> what should I do?
[06:58] <Spliffster> LucidFox, it did for me.
[06:59] <Seppo> El_Fart0, #weesblij?
[06:59] <LucidFox> my timezone is Asia/Novosibirsk
[06:59] <Spliffster> LucidFox, if you are in the US .. it might have not worked due to this years changes to american DST dates
[06:59] <El_Fart0> Seppo, yeah
[06:59] <LucidFox> no, I'm in Russia
[06:59] <nielfr> Wow. Is the GUI for SWScanner home made or just slower than the webbrowser for PS2?
[06:59] <Spliffster> LucidFox, oh ok ... just use the system clock and change it,
[06:59] <Spliffster> LucidFox, rightlick on the clock, then select Adjust time. that's it
[06:59] <h00t> kazuki: do you know if there's something like that for totem-gstreamer package ... it wasn't working for me
[07:00] <LucidFox> but when I synchronize it via NTP, it will get reset to UTC+6 again, won't it?
[07:00] <blu2> Hi All, I am dual booting winXP and Ubuntu5.10. Now after getting everything set up I find I need more space.Is there a easy way to add more space without starting all over again?
[07:00] <LucidFox> (it should be UTC+7 for me)
[07:00] <Spliffster> LucidFox, ok you are using NTP, then you must adjust the timezone ....
[07:00] <mrpoundsign> How do I re-enable gdm after installing kubuntu-desktop ?
[07:00] <exoide> snez, No, C programmers
[07:00] <kazuki> h00t, not sure about totem, just use movie player/vlc/mplayer to play stuff
[07:00] <ferronica> Spliffster: its obexftp
[07:01] <kbidd> blu2, although I've never used it, Ive heard that gparted can do excatly that.
[07:01] <nielfr> Can anybody tell me the secret of using wireless on Ubuntu?
[07:01] <snez> exoide: ##c
[07:01] <yell0w> hey folks, where can i find some hold'em poker game software ?
[07:01] <exoide> snez, ok I'll try
[07:01] <ferronica> Shrimpy; got anything????
[07:01] <LucidFox> isn't there any way to enable DST, say, in config files?
[07:01] <exoide> snez, I'm curious, snez comes from the name of the NES emulator?
[07:02] <blu2> kbidd, I will take a look at that application. I think I do have it installed. Wasnt sure about it though....Thanks
[07:02] <Spliffster> ferronica, aaha, thanks for refreshing my memmories. it's really cute. if you have a laptop with bluetooth and a phone with bluetooth it's really the nicest way to trransfer files. make sure you start the server (should be an init script in /etc/init.d) and you prolly can start it via gnome menue too (system)
[07:02] <kazuki> h00t, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[07:02] <LucidFox> whoa
[07:02] <LucidFox> I did ntpdate and it did change it properly
[07:02] <snez> exoide: no, its random
[07:02] <LucidFox> taking DST into account
[07:02] <pookey> where can I find information on what versions are called what?
[07:02] <exoide> snez, ok
[07:02] <nielfr> Does anyone know a channel for support for Ubuntu?
[07:02] <LucidFox> nielfr> this channel :p
[07:02] <ferronica> Spliffster: there is obexserver should i download
[07:02] <LucidFox> it's the official Ubuntu support channel
[07:03] <kbidd> blu2, Again, I havn't used it myself, but from what Ive read, its supposed to be very similar to partition magick
[07:03] <Pici> pookey: What do you mean?
[07:03] <kbidd> *magic
[07:03] <pookey> Pici: as in, what version number breezy is etc.
[07:03] <Shrimpy_> ferronica: sorry, i got something but it does not look very good. i would try to connect it via blue tooth, but i'm sorry have you tried the Ubuntu Forums
[07:03] <pestilence> !versions
[07:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about versions - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:03] <pestilence> !versioning
[07:03] <ubotu> Ubuntu and Debian have slightly different package versioning schemes, for an explanation see http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/basic-scratch.html#id2528873
[07:03] <nielfr> OK. I have this problem: Wifi doesn't work. ndiswrapper has succesfully been applied and the network program tells me everything is fine: Using Wireless connection... but it simply doesn't work. I am trying Kwlan, but it doesn't want to connect and SWScanner's GUI never responds. How do I get my Ubuntu box on-line?
[07:03] <carier> please send me ubuntu repositories list (daper drake, only defolt list) to saha131@yandex.ru sanks
[07:03] <Spliffster> LucidFox, sounds like a bug to me. gnome is able to automagically change time when DST changes. but the configuration must be made for every time zone seperately. it might be that it is wrong for your timezonr/location. i recommend, filing a bug. add your timezone/location to the bugreport as well as your OS version.
[07:04] <pestilence> pookey: the version numbers are derived from the release date
[07:04] <ferronica> Shrimpy; yes i tried ubuntu forums
[07:04] <Shrimpy_> ferronica: also the website i was looking at is :  http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/02/24/1725240  ;
[07:04] <Pici> pookey: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DevelopmentCodeNames
[07:04] <pestilence> pookey: 6.06 was released in june of 06
[07:04] <ferronica> Shrimpy; i have Bluetooth toooo
[07:04] <pookey> Pici: thanks :)
[07:04] <blu2> kbidd, Nice that is exactly what I think I will need...Another question...worse case happens, how should I back up or copy my existing data?...
[07:05] <eth01> :/
[07:05] <kbidd>  blu2, you could always use something like dd, and write the binary backups to dvd... would let you restore your system if "the worst case happens"
[07:06] <nielfr> OK. The whole system has frozen :S
[07:06] <Shrimpy_> ferronica: i would try that then, there is a little section on that web site that tells you how, although its not the best
[07:06] <nielfr> Only the mouse responds... but it does so quite well.
[07:06] <exoide> snez, Are you a C programmer?
[07:06] <blu2> kbidd, ok I appreciate your time..I am not familiar with dd, but i will check online for documentation..Thanks again...
[07:07] <ferronica> Spliffster: ok i have downloded obex-server now from where to start it :(
[07:07] <kbidd> blu2, I'll save ya the google time :-P   ( http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/ddcommand.htm )
[07:07] <snez> exoide: partly
[07:07] <Spliffster> ferronica: i don't have it installed on this computer. it was eighter unter "application > System tools" or "System > Administration". once started, you should see a new try icon
[07:08] <ScatterBrain> When's Fiestly official launch date?
[07:08] <ScatterBrain> er fiesty
[07:08] <deltron> april-ish
[07:08] <IdleOne> !Feisty
[07:08] <ubotu> 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)
[07:08] <dauoalagio2> hello i am having problems with sound, it was working before a restart and now it's not.  "alsamixer" works but there is no "alsaconf"
[07:08] <IdleOne> ScatterBrain, April 19
[07:09] <blu2> kbidd, much appreciated....talk with you later...Thanks
[07:09] <ScatterBrain> Cool.  Thanks all.
[07:09] <Spliffster> ferronica: then you need to add your phone to the allowed devices .. do this (ummm .. my memmory) ... rightlick on the tray icon and play with it. you should be able to see a list of devices within range. add your phone to the allowed devices. set password if needed. that's it. once you send a file from phone to computer, a dialog should pop up askin you where to store the file.
[07:09] <mailow> hi all
[07:09] <IdleOne> how do I remove " window list " from bottom panel?
[07:10] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne, right click remove
[07:10] <DavidHKMrPowers> I was kicked in #freebsd !
[07:10] <_filippo_> hi i have a ubuntu cd (but i think it's the same with any repo) how could i know which packages on the cd i've installed and which not^
[07:10] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, doesnt give me option to remove
[07:10] <Spliffster> ferronica: at best, it should be possible to mount your phone wia autofs or maybe via gnome .... after all, obex just mimiks an ftp server/client.
[07:10] <kbidd> anyone know the system requirements to run the latest release of ubuntu offhand?  If not, i'll just look them up myself.
[07:10] <ferronica> Spliffster: you mean pair
[07:10] <Spliffster> ferronica: but i have never tried/done this ... just a thought.
[07:10] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: see the like column with slits in on the right side?
[07:11] <Spliffster> ferronica: pair sounds good.
[07:11] <DavidHKMrPowers> can anyone her please help me ask #freebsd unban me please?
[07:11] <Spliffster> ferronica: AFK 5 gonna smoke one ... just /msg me in the meanwhile
[07:11] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, no I dont
[07:11] <ferronica> Spliffster: unable to pair dont know the passcode what toput
[07:11] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: have you done any editing with your taskbars?  it should be right next to "System"
[07:11] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, right now I have 2 xchat tabs one on the left hand side and a smaller one on the right
[07:12] <Oritemis> hy guys, You know if drivers jdbc comes with ubuntu by default? If don't, how may I take it?
[07:12] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: what? take a picture of your desktop or something
[07:12] <jusama14> hey, does anyone know how to watch nsv streams on ubuntu?
[07:12] <Pici> IdleOne: The window list thing that you can right click on is kinda shaped like a vertical separator
[07:12] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, gimme a sec and a link to paste image please
[07:12] <jusama14> some use h264 codecs..other use vp6
[07:12] <elvirolo> hi all, i'm looking for an amarok equivalent for gnome ... i tried exaile but it uses up twice to three times as much memory as amarok does, even on gnome...
[07:13] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: okay
[07:13] <ferronica> Spliffster: what u said???
[07:13] <gameover> how can i redirect the home page of new users in my network?
[07:13] <jusama14> basically I'm looking for kplayer for ubuntu
[07:13] <Oritemis> elvirolo, nothing is like amarok.
[07:13] <waxyfresh> wrong place to ask but anyone know what key you hold down on an older ibm aptiva to get to the bios menu?
[07:13] <LjL> !players > elvirolo    (elvirolo, see the private message from Ubotu)
[07:13] <Oritemis> elvirolo, imho is the best player for linux.
[07:13] <maja> i
[07:13] <kbidd> jusama14, can't VLC do it?
[07:14] <unimatrix9> hi there
[07:14] <jusama14> it can..but it's choppy
[07:14] <nielfr> 8 hours and I have still not managed to get Ubuntu to use WLan.
[07:14] <Oritemis> hy guys, You know if drivers jdbc comes with ubuntu by default? If don't, how may I take it?
[07:14] <_filippo_> no answer to me? :(
[07:14] <_filippo_> hi i have a ubuntu cd (but i think it's the same with any repo) how could i know which packages on the cd i've installed and which not^
[07:14] <elvirolo> LjL: thanks, in fact i tried most of these
[07:14] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, ok I see what you mean about the slits thingy
[07:14] <kbidd> jusama14, in that case, i'd give mplayer a shot... i dont know, but if i had to guess, i'd say it supports it.
[07:14] <jusama14> and vlc doesn't seem to be play vp62...i did install w32 codecs
[07:14] <IdleOne> Pici, ty 
[07:14] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: right click, remove
[07:14] <unimatrix9> are there any developers of feisty around today?
[07:14] <LjL> elvirolo: well, it's probably why quite a few people, when they want something like Amarok, use Amarok ;-)
[07:14] <jusama14> yeah ubuntu came with mplayer
[07:14] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, that removes the entire panel
[07:14] <jusama14> it had some error kbidd
[07:15] <Pici> _filippo_: the Synaptic package manager will show you graphically what packages you've installed and which are uninstalled
[07:15] <elvirolo> LjL: yup :)
[07:15] <Shrimpy_> has any one here used ettercap?
[07:15] <jusama14> mplayer..movie player right?
[07:15] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: the window list takes up a lot of it.
[07:15] <kbidd> Shrimpy_, yes, but not in a while
[07:15] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: it can be quickly replaced
[07:15] <unimatrix9> are there any developers of feisty around today?
[07:15] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, ok done
[07:15] <Spliffster> ferronica: first of all, this is a good sign. a handshake seems to work. the password is the one set in your phon .. prolly the factory setting. try it the other way 'round. try to conenct fro mthe phone to the compuer. also; find out how to reset (or set a new pw) on the phone so you know it
[07:15] <nielfr> OK. I have received this way of solving it: format the HD and install Windows.
[07:15] <jusama14> I did read somewhere that mplayer works...but when I tried to open a stream it says
[07:15] <IdleOne> but now my xchat tab is on the right instead of left
[07:15] <unimatrix9> or is there an seperate devopers channel?
[07:15] <_filippo_> Pici: thanks i'm new to debian
[07:15] <Pici> unimatrix9: Try in #ubuntu-dev
[07:15] <unimatrix9> ok thanx
[07:15] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, but now my xchat tab is on the right instead of left
[07:16] <elvirolo> it's a shame really ... i've always been a KDE user so i decided to test out feisty with gnome, and all works rather well but i still have to use k3b (brasero is -no- way as good) and amarok ... gaim is also quite disapointing
[07:16] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: that makes no sense
[07:16] <ferronica> Spliffster: what is default password
[07:16] <budman> anyone having issues with firefox crashing randomly?
[07:16] <mirra> wtf is wrong with ubuntus ssh:// ?
[07:16] <jackson3246> where are the configuration files for the gnome menu located?
[07:17] <Spliffster> ferronica: default password (noun) some silly string set by the manufatorer
[07:17] <mirra> anyone else have problems using ubuntus built in browser for ssh:// ?
[07:17] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, you know how you have a tab on the bottom panel for xchat? well it is normaly on the left hand side and all tabs after open to the right of the left most tab? well now I have xchat tab on the bottom right hand side
[07:17] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, after removing the window list
[07:17] <sarixe> hey, i'm connected to my computer through ssh right now.  I killed gdm, which, in turn, killed my vnc server.  my question is this: how do i get my vnc server up and running so i can connect to it, all from a remote ssh connection? I'd like to also know how to get the server to transfer the whole graphical interface of tty7, not just my login.  any help?
[07:17] <jusama14> I have Mplayer movie player
[07:17] <jusama14> is that right?
[07:18] <jusama14> kbidd
[07:18] <nielfr> Does anyone know a channel for support for WLan on Ubuntu?
[07:18] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: i don't use xchat
[07:18] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: sorry mate
[07:18] <tony_> I want to set up a local SMTP server... which one is the most user friendly and simple to set up?
[07:18] <Pici> nielfr: This is the place, What seems to be the issue?
[07:18] <mirra> anyone else have problems using ubuntus built in browser for ssh:// ?
[07:18] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, what ever app you are using it would normaly place a tab to the left of bottom panel right?
[07:18] <nielfr> OK. I have this problem: Wifi doesn't work. ndiswrapper has succesfully been applied and the network program tells me everything is fine: Using Wireless connection... but it simply doesn't work. I am trying Kwlan, but it doesn't want to connect and SWScanner's GUI never responds. How do I get my Ubuntu box on-line?
[07:18] <mirra> im goin to rip this computer apart
[07:18] <jusama14> when i try to open the stream on mplayer it says.."Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device
[07:18] <kbidd> jusama14, yeah, mplayer plays almost every format you want... If my memory serves me correctly, you do sometimes need to find a codec pack and install it... dont remember if all codecs come built in for ubuntu or not.
[07:19] <crdlb> mirra, are you using "connect to server"?
[07:19] <mirra> is there another program i can use to do ssh file transferring
[07:19] <mirra> yes
[07:19] <IdleOne> mirra, problem is probably router related and not ubuntu
[07:19] <jackson3246> where are the configuration files for the gnome menu located? I'd like to reset my menu
[07:19] <jusama14> yes kbidd...i installed w32 codecs if that's the codec pack you are talking about
[07:19] <mirra> no its not..i have no problems using a shell
[07:19] <Spliffster> sarixe: 1. `/etc/init.d/vnc-something start` to start the vnc server. 2. i don't know if this is possible (yet). transferring displays (ala screen) should be possible somewhen in future xorg implementations. but it's not sure
[07:19] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: taht's what you just removed
[07:19] <crdlb> jusama14, specify a different video out: mplayer -vo xv movie.avi
[07:19] <airox> Hi guys.
[07:19] <mirra> im connecting to my vps..it works for a while..then just dies..but the shell works fine
[07:19] <mirra> ???
[07:19] <Pici> nielfr: if you type `iwconfig` into a terminal, do any of your interfaces give you any wireless settings?
[07:19] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: taht's what you just removed
[07:19] <crdlb> jusama14, if that works we can fix the GUI version too
[07:19] <kbidd> jusama14, that was the pack i was talking about... try what crdlb just said... he beat me to it.
[07:20] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, lmao ummmnm never mind
[07:20] <ferronica> Spliffster: 00000
[07:20] <jusama14> crdlb how do i do that
[07:20] <airox> I've booted the Feisty Fawn Herd 5 cd and enabled desktop effects. It is looking all great :) Is there a way to save the xorg.conf for later use ?
[07:20] <IdleOne> dauoalagio2, ty for your help
[07:20] <jusama14> i don't understand lol sorry kinda ne
[07:20] <jusama14> new*
[07:20] <nielfr> No. They all say "no wireless extensions"
[07:20] <mirra> crdlb, IdleOne  did you see what i wrote?
[07:20] <Spliffster> ferronica: heh :D
[07:20] <dauoalagio2> IdleOne: haha, no problem
[07:20] <ferronica> Spliffster: i tried many
[07:20] <airox> Cause in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf there is nothing specific for AIGLX
[07:20] <ferronica> Spliffster: no one working :(
[07:20] <bill_> i just slapped an ubuntu 6.10 server CD into my box which has two SATA RAID controllers, each with a SATA RAID configured on it, and the installer only shows me sda-sdh for the individual disks, but no devices for the arrays....
[07:20] <mirra> is there something else I can use?
[07:20] <crdlb> jusama14, type that in a terminal
[07:20] <airox> (No Option "AIGLX" "true" or so)
[07:20] <Pici> nielfr: Then it sounds like ndiswrapper didn't work properly
[07:20] <jusama14> okay but it's not a video i'm trying to open it's a stream
[07:20] <bill_> how do i get the installer to recognize my SATA RAIDs
[07:21] <IdleOne> mirra, I saw you cursing and talking about ripping a machine apart and complaining that it must be ubuntu's fault
[07:21] <Spliffster> ferronica: just go to your phone settings, then find the bluetooth password and set a new one. it might not be possible to find it out.
[07:21] <IdleOne> mirra, search in synaptic for ssh
[07:21] <crdlb> mirra, you can mount ssh shares with sshfs and fuse if you want to
[07:21] <mirra> IdleOne, i dont recall cursing..
[07:21] <nielfr> ndiswrapper doesn't give any error messages: "driver present, hardware present"
[07:21] <IdleOne> wtf is a abreviation of a curse therefor also a curse
[07:21] <Spliffster> ferronica: it's actually a feature (a security feature so nobody can abuse your bluetooth)
[07:22] <Dave_O`Tool> f could be frig
[07:22] <Pici> nielfr: I've never used ndiswrapper, so I'm afraid I'm not going to be of much help
[07:22] <nielfr> Is there any other way then?
[07:22] <IdleOne> Dave_O`Tool, and frig is slang for??
[07:22] <waxyfresh> while installing 5.1 i enconter tehis error kernal panic tryed to kill init
[07:22] <Heywood> Is there a way to run both Ubuntu and XP on the same computer at the same time?

[07:22] <Zaiden> Is it possible that my Graphics card keeps giving me an error about X Windows version when trying to run the Live CD normally?
[07:22] <IdleOne> lol Dave_O`Tool
[07:22] <Dave_O`Tool> ty
[07:22] <jusama14> crdlb so i just type mplayer -vo xv movie.avi that into terminal?
[07:22] <jusama14> even if i'm trying to open a stream?
[07:23] <bill_> sata raid anyone?
[07:23] <crdlb> jusama14, you can put the stream url in place of "movie.avi"
[07:23] <Spliffster> Zaiden: it is spossible, because not 100% of the available vid cards are supported. it might also be that your cd has an error. try the cd check i nthe boot menu.
[07:23] <alucard> enouf: does make use the .config file automatically?
[07:23] <jusama14> okay i typed it
[07:23] <Zaiden> Ok
[07:23] <jusama14> want me to paste what it says?
[07:23] <waxyfresh> while installing 5.1 i enconter tehis error kernal panic not synching tryed to kill init whats the matter?any ideas?
[07:23] <Heywood> Is there a way to run both Ubuntu and XP on the same computer at the same time?
[07:23] <airox> Heywood: Yes.
[07:23] <waxyfresh> Heywood: yes
[07:24] <Zaqq> yes
[07:24] <crdlb> jusama14, ok
[07:24] <airox> Heywood: It will autodetect the Windows XP partitions.

[07:24] <nielfr> OK. I will try to see if I can find out what went wrong with ndiswrapper.

[07:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tell jusama14 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:24] <waxyfresh> Spliffster: nope old school aptiva,no raid or  anything fancy
[07:24] <jusama14> pastebin?
[07:24] <Heywood> I don't mean have it on the computer at the same time, I have that already. I mean actually running it at the same time
[07:24] <IdleOne> Heywood, but you can have both OS'es on same machine but only run one at a time
[07:24] <Pici> !paste | jusama14
[07:24] <ubotu> jusama14: 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)
[07:25] <jusama14> oh ok thx
[07:25] <Pici> Heywood: Unless you want to run one in a virtual machine, like vmware
[07:25] <budman> anyone having issues with firefox crashing randomly? - I did not see answers
[07:25] <waxyfresh> Heywood: try a virtual machine progra,thats the best i can tell you
[07:25] <IdleOne> Heywood, you can run a Virtual Windows or Ubuntu not sure how it's done Im sure someone here knows
[07:25] <Heywood> Alright, thanks guys. I'll do some more searching now that I actually have a term. Virtual Machine is the way to go?
[07:25] <IdleOne> Heywood, not sure
[07:26] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: ok ... was worth a try. sorry can't help much. if the root filesystem (and especially /var) was mounted before ... boot into the live cd and the mount the var partition and investigate the logfiles in /var/log .... you may find more information. the current information doesn't point out a specific problem
[07:26] <waxyfresh> Spliffster: innotek virtual box
[07:26] <IdleOne> Heywood, possible though I have seen ppl talking about it here

[07:28] <crdlb> mirra, I have no idea
[07:28] <crdlb> sshfs is mpre robust

[07:28] <dauoalagio2> hello i am having problems with sound, it was working before a restart and now it's not.  "alsamixer" works but there is no "alsaconf"
[07:28] <mirra> crdlb, will it allow me to do the same thing in the end
[07:28] <crdlb> jusama14, I don't think you have the right codecs
[07:28] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: oh i see. this might be an emulation problem. ubuntu (well debian) works great in vmware-server and qemu ... the performance is not too bad if you use the kquemu virtualisation module for quemu. quemu is gpl, vmware is free as in beer.

[07:29] <crdlb> mirra, you can mount a folder over ssh to a folder on your filesystem
[07:29] <jusama14> does the stream work for you crdlb?
[07:29] <mirra> k..thanks

[07:29] <waxyfresh> Spliffster: the innotek virtual machine coment wasent for you i just got confused on the name,i ment to send it to heywood
[07:29] <crdlb> jusama14, yep, but I tested it on a different distribution
[07:30] <jusama14> oh..
[07:30] <mirra> crdlb, doesnt using connect to server mount the volumes as well?
[07:30] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: try to play with the boot options .. AFAIK there is a non graphical installer. if not .. try debian. ubuntu has one big problem. it wants to run that live CD first. the live CD uses some defaults which might wreck hovac in special cases (such as yours or dubious hardware)
[07:30] <mirra> i just had to unmount them to delete the shortcuts
[07:30] <jusama14> so any ideas?
[07:30] <kbrosnan> budman: plugins like adobe flash and java if misconfigured can crash firefox
[07:30] <jusama14> do I have to install any other codecs?
[07:30] <crdlb> mirra, no, it only "mounts" them on gnome-vfs
[07:30] <theacolyte> what's the ubuntu equivalent to chkconfig?
[07:30] <jusama14> vlc works when the stream uses h264 codecs but it's really choppy
[07:30] <crdlb> mirra, you can only view "connect to server"-mounted files with gnome apps
[07:31] <jusama14> i heard mplayer can run it great..but yeah
[07:31] <waxyfresh> anyone know the command for a non graphic install on 5.1?
[07:31] <mirra> i have gnome
[07:31] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: aye .. ok then. if you have no logs, try to use a curses installer ... i thought there was a way to install ubuntu that way (just the plain good ole debian-installer).

[07:33] <IdleOne> aib_, type free in terminal
[07:33] <kbrosnan> budman: i don't know what exacly easyubuntu does, it would sill be useful to look at plugins. type about:plugins in the address bar, select all the text and copy and paste it to a pastebin service

[07:34] <crdlb> mirra, that sounds right
[07:34] <waxyfresh> Spliffster: sorry my keybored really messed up
[07:34] <crdlb> mirra, edit /etc/group or use users-admin
[07:34] <mirra> that would be my local user or remote user?
[07:34] <jackson3246> how do I reset the gnome menu?
[07:34] <crdlb> mirra, your local user
[07:34] <nomike> my screen is in 800x600@60 Hz now, the highest I could set via system-->preferences-->screen-resolution

[07:34] <nomike> what do i have to do to enable a higher resolution?
[07:34] <IdleOne> cebrax, first partition hd and make some room for windows then install windows to that partition then you need to reinstall grub see !grub and then your good to go
[07:35] <cebrax> I have no windows installed and i want to.. but all my hdd space is used by ubuntu partitation

[07:35] <[GuS] > Hi!
[07:35] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: i see. so then to plan b. try to figure if there is a way to install without a xorg running, ie. a command line installer. you may fiddle with the xorg config later. all virtual machines emulate some hardware (also the vid card) the ubuntu installer tries to identify it ... but might fail at that stage

[07:36] <mirra> crdlb, it is saying that mountpoint is not empty, and i should use nonempty mount option if it is safe.. ?
[07:36] <kbrosnan> budman: that looks clean, unless you are crashing on pages with videos on them
[07:36] <Spliffster> jedidor: try the nvidia settings program. you can downlaod it from the nvidia site. it might also be in the multiverse repo.
[07:36] <jackson3246> IdleOne: reset it to the default menu, as if I'd created a new user and copied their menu to my user. I can't find the configuration files
[07:36] <IdleOne> cebrax, get the live cd of gparted and boot into it then do it from there
[07:37] <crdlb> mirra, you should use a nonempty folder as the mountpoint

[07:42] <crdlb> jusama14, do any streams work?
[07:42] <cebrax> Evening all!
[07:42] <jusama14> not on mplayer
[07:43] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: ok, if you use the server iso (there is a seperate server download) you get a cli installer. the server distro is not much different from the desktop, except, you must install the desktop later manually (sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop) and soem server services like ssh are already installed (which is nearly always needed) the server install, however, is absolutely minimal (250mb or so) and a very good starting point.
[07:43] <jusama14> when i try opening a stream on the gui one it has the -vo error
[07:43] <waxyfresh> Spliffster: ill se ifit will work
[07:43] <HostilePenguin> running edgy eft off usb is the most geekiest thing ever its so cool
[07:43] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: good luck!
[07:44] <crdlb> jusama14, you need to rightclick on it, choose preferences, go to the video tab, and select "Xv"
[07:44] <HostilePenguin> anyone else using usb flash ?
[07:44] <jusama14> there is
[07:44] <jusama14> xvidix

[07:45] <jusama14> under drivers
[07:45] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: one more note ... on the boot screen you can hit F4 and select the vga mode. you may try to use the absolute minimum (vga 640x480x8) this might help.

[07:53] <TeReL50> !sound
[07:53] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[07:54] <Pici> Supre_Me: All of the computers in your network will have the same external IP, but they will have different internal IPs.
[07:54] <alucard>  i found this error when i was doing make-kpkg clean, do you have any idea if this might be responsible " Error. The version number # # configuration written to .config # 2.6.20.4 is not all lowercase. Since the version ends up in the package name of the kernel image package, this is a Debian policy violation, and the packaging system shall refuse to package the image. .  Stop."

[07:55] <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)
[07:55] <dotnettt> cX-kads:  how?
[07:55] <Supre_Me> Pici, ok. Well, I tried to portforward 5900, but nothing seems to happend when I connect from my laptop to my stationary comp. Hm, I'll check the routers support website
[07:55] <mojodenbow> I'm running 6.06 but would like to upgrade to the 7 Fiesty beta... do I just download and extract the .iso to a CD and then run the CD?
[07:55] <cX-kads> wavyfresh recompile the program that created that message
[07:55] <cX-kads> dotnett using mount in command
[07:55] <IdleOne> !upgrade | mojodenbow
[07:55] <ubotu> mojodenbow: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes

[07:56] <crdlb> mirra, that's because you sudid it
[07:56] <cX-kads> no
[07:56] <dotnettt> cX-kads:  may u tell me how i can do it?
[07:56] <mirra> i didnt
[07:56] <cX-kads>  sudo mount /dev/usb
[07:56] <crdlb> mirra, you got it to mount without sudo?
[07:56] <mirra> it connected fine..when i was editting a file on the system with gedit..and it wouldnt save
[07:56] <mirra> yes
[07:56] <TeReL50> hmm
[07:57] <mirra> sshfs root@mymachine:/ /home/mirra/Desktop/sshfolder
[07:57] <baktaah> Damn it

[07:57] <baktaah> tIts driving me mad
[07:57] <dotnettt> cX-kads:  its not there

[07:57] <baktaah> Could someone please assist me, it's getting quite annoying when the computer lags when I scroll for example or other related stuff, s
[07:57] <Guest858> Hi all. Just asked about connecting to wireless then I got disconnected. Sorry if I missed an answer.. if not, can anyone help?
[07:57] <cX-kads> dotnett pm me
[07:57] <mirra> crdlb, if i am connected as root to the machine..why would i get permission errors????
[07:57] <cX-kads> channel is too buzy
[07:57] <baktaah> It lags when I scrool
[07:57] <baktaah> scroll
[07:57] <baktaah> even for regular text
[07:57] <dauoalagio2> hello how can i find out the source build directory that matches my kernel?
[07:57] <baktaah> got an ati 9600 pro
[07:57] <crdlb> mirra, your ssh server should *not* be set to allow root connections
[07:57] <mirra> it only allows ssh from my IP though
[07:58] <michoelc_> Sorry.. guest858 = michoelc
[07:58] <Steve^> CheshireViking, I got Ubuntu to update now, it appears clicking auto-update doesn't give the right time
[07:58] <mirra> so it doesnt matter
[07:58] <Pici> baktaah: Sounds like you need to install video card drivers
[07:58] <baktaah> Pici,  I got the latest already
[07:58] <baktaah> this is really driving me mad :(
[07:58] <dot-net> cX-kads:  i did pm u and u arent there :P
[07:58] <baktaah> Please help me
[07:58] <cX-kads> hmmm I am talking to u in pm
[07:59] <cX-kads> but my irc is acting up
[07:59] <cX-kads> so lets tak here
[07:59] <cX-kads> dot-net
[07:59] <waxyfresh> while installing 5.1 i enconter this error: "segmantation fault" whats the matter?any ideas? s
[07:59] <cX-kads> dot-net what is not there?
[07:59] <mirra> crdlb, before i sell my computer..could you maybe explain why i wouldnt be allowed to change files on the ssh as root
[07:59] <alucard>  i found this error when i was doing make-kpkg clean, do you have any idea if this might be responsible " Error. The version number # # configuration written to .config # 2.6.20.4 is not all lowercase. Since the version ends up in the package name of the kernel image package, this is a Debian policy violation, and the packaging system shall refuse to package the image. .  Stop."
[07:59] <dot-net> cX-kads:
[07:59] <dot-net> wait
[07:59] <soundray> baktaah: run 'top' in a terminal and find out what's hogging your CPU
[07:59] <alucard> i can't figure out why it wont compile my kernel
[08:00] <dot-net> cX-kads:  /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[08:00] <renz> can someone help me with setting up my server to get updates from behind an ISA proxy?
[08:00] <crdlb> mirra, I'm guessing that your sshd config file is preventing it somehow but I'm not sure (I've never tried it because it's a terrible idea :D)
[08:00] <baktaah> soundray,  it isnt the CPU , it's the GPU
[08:00] <cX-kads> dot-net: it shouldn't matter
[08:00] <cX-kads> dot-net: try sudo mount /dev/usb
[08:00] <mirra> crdlb, when i used ubuntus horrible 'connect to host' i had no problems at all..and like i said my ssh only allows connections from my IP
[08:00] <cX-kads> dot-net: and tell me the error
[08:00] <dot-net> ok
[08:00] <soundray> baktaah: what kind is it, and what driver do you use?
[08:01] <ikonia> cX-kads: /dev/usb isn't a device
[08:01] <cX-kads> ikonia I know but ubuntu detects it in that format
[08:01] <baktaah> soundray,  i use the latest ati drivers (ati.com)  9600 pro
[08:01] <ikonia> cX-kads: no it doesn't
[08:01] <baktaah> soundray,  it's odd, it even lags when I scroll while reading some text
[08:01] <dot-net> cX-kads:  mount: /dev/usb  /etc/fstab yor /etc/mtab its not in there
[08:01] <dauoalagio2> Hi, i am having problems with alsa..for some odd reason it has decided not to work.
[08:01] <ikonia> cX-kads: it will detect a device as /dev/usb/$X
[08:02] <cX-kads> ikonia
[08:02] <ikonia> cX-kads: unless you've messed with the udev rules
[08:02] <cX-kads> ikonia oh yeah
[08:02] <cX-kads> ikonia u are rite I did mess with my udev rules
[08:02] <TeReL50> freedom rulez
[08:02] <crdlb> mirra, well when you do it with fuse, you're allowing any app with your privileges to have root-level access to that computer (it's much more insecure that using connect to server since then you have to authorize every app that can connect)
[08:02] <ikonia> cX-kads: then more fool you
[08:02] <cX-kads> ikonia oopps dot-net listen to ikonia
[08:02] <dot-net> ok
[08:02] <dot-net> ikonia:  hi
[08:02] <ikonia> hello
[08:03] <dot-net> may i pm u?
[08:03] <ikonia> dot-net: no
[08:03] <dot-net> ok
[08:03] <cX-kads> ikonia whats the mount prosses for the usb plugin speakers
[08:03] <baktaah> Could someone please assist me, it's getting quite annoying when the computer lags when I scroll fand stuff, I got the latest ati drivers installed 9600 pro.
[08:03] <ikonia> cX-kads: you don't mount speakers
[08:03] <aDDe> To begin with, I am a Linux NOOB.. But you have to learn some time right? I have problems with my graphic card. I have a ATI Mob radeon 7500 but haven't been able to find any drivers for it anywhere..  Anyone know where I can find a driver?
[08:03] <ikonia> cX-kads: unless they have a hard disk in them
[08:03] <cX-kads> ikonia I do for mines
[08:03] <dot-net> ikonia:  what should i do?
[08:03] <cX-kads> ikonia they do
[08:03] <ikonia> cX-kads: then it will probably be seen as a scsi disk
[08:03] <soundray> baktaah: I haven't really got any suggestion for you, but I've seen similar complaints from other users of the binary ATI drivers. It might be worth searching the web, if you haven't tried that already.
[08:04] <ikonia> dot-net: what are you trying to do
[08:04] <dot-net> my usb speakers not giving any sound i dont know why?
[08:04] <xMorgawr> does someone know a nice guide about GNOME?
[08:04] <dot-net> ikonia: my usb speakers not giving any sound i dont know why?
[08:04] <ikonia> dot-net: have you configured the sound system such as alsa to use the correct /dev/$device
[08:04] <prybar> hola.. test
[08:05] <dot-net> ikonia:  i tried to download all alsa programs
[08:05] <ikonia> dot-net: thats not what I said
[08:05] <xipietotec> I'm trying to reach the internet through my laptop, my wife's computer is running ubuntu, and I'm plugged in through it's ethernet port, but I can't get a dhcp to the router...even though she's connected?

[08:05] <ooglaboogla> hello all. I've got a laptop that came with xp media center, i later added ubuntu and a swap partition. i've just now deleted the /dev/sda1 partition which contained windows and /dev/sda2 is the ubuntu '/' partition and /dev/sda5 is the swap. i want to move, merge, resize /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 together, can I do this ?
[08:06] <ikonia> dot-net: what usb device is your speakers shown as ?
[08:06] <soundray> xipietotec: you have to enable connection sharing on your wife's computer. You can use firestarter to configure it.
[08:06] <dot-net> ikonia:  i cant see anything aobut it
[08:06] <Robokop> i have messed up my grub and lost it, and now i have done fixmbr from windows, how can i set grub back up
[08:07] <ikonia> dot-net: where are you looking ?
[08:07] <aDDe> ATI M R 7500 driver... Anyone know where to download?

[08:10] <dot-net> ikonia:  there is no one
[08:10] <d173465> Hello
[08:10] <ikonia> soundray: nice
[08:10] <Zennor> my problem is the following: while installation he puts error: "exiting on error base-installer/no_codename"...
[08:10] <soundray> ikonia: what's that?
[08:10] <ikonia> the tr factoid
[08:10] <jammer> someone has problems with 2 nic installation on feisty like me?
[08:10] <alucard> thapa: what are you asking about command line?
[08:10] <thapa> how did you call make-kpkg?
[08:11] <dot-net> ikonia:  try to explain maybe i can understand :D
[08:11] <omha> hey
[08:11] <ikonia> dot-net: no - sorry
[08:11] <soundray> ikonia: I can't see any tr factoid. ubotu didn't even respond to mine
[08:11] <dot-net> :(
[08:11] <ikonia> soundray: I thought it did
[08:11] <soundray> dot-net: oh dear, you've annoyed ikonia.
[08:11] <omha> i have a wired problem, my batteries are not charging
[08:11] <soundray> dot-net: do you have a terminal window open?
[08:11] <ikonia> soundray: I'm not annoyed
[08:11] <dot-net> soundray: yep
[08:11] <colbert> anyone here gotten 5.1 sound working in ubuntu ?
[08:12] <mbdl> hey if i wanted to instal linspire over ubuntu would i just install or would it over ride ubuntu... is it like windows if u install it after linux that ubuntu cant been seen from boot?
[08:12] <soundray> dot-net: run 'lsusb' and see if any of the output lines corresponds to your USB speakers.
[08:12] <soundray> ikonia: of course not :)
[08:12] <Spliffster> alucard: AFAIK if you change the " --revision number " the kernel is compiled again ... an all of it
[08:12] <soundray> !tr
[08:12] <ubotu> Turk ubuntu kullanicilari, turkce yardim yada geyik icin #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde.
[08:12] <genii> No, linspire is a linux dist so it can use grub like ubuntu does
[08:12] <soundray> Now it's worked
[08:13] <alucard> spliffster: it still says "nothing to be done"
[08:13] <pibarnas> mbdl it depends on where you install it. Do you have a partition reserved for it?
[08:13] <Zennor> is there a known bug with the ide-controller sis963l?
[08:13] <mbdl> genii: so it would use grub...THX
[08:13] <Phoren> updating to feisty, takes a long time at file 50/53 this normal?
[08:13] <dot-net> soundray:  it says c media
[08:13] <mbdl> pibarnas: well as it stands no but ill resize ubuntus and work form there
[08:13] <maja> ok i'm a total newbie. i have a question. can ubuntu see my second hdd that was formated to be used with windows xp? there is no system on it , only pics and vids
[08:13] <Spliffster> alucard: and if you do: "$ sudo make-kpkg clean && sudo make-kpkg <your options>" it _must_ compile
[08:13] <kittyhawk> I have a bizarre question
[08:13] <dot-net> and microdia
[08:13] <dumbalien> anyone know of a good linux based home automation website
[08:14] <dyrne> !ntfs | maja :)
[08:14] <ubotu> maja :): To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:14] <kittyhawk> it seems like the video is causing static on the audio channel
[08:14] <soundray> dot-net: good, that means the problem is not electrical.
[08:14] <maja> thank you :)
[08:14] <waxyfresh> while installing 5.1 i enconter this error: "segmantation fault" whats the matter?any ideas? s
[08:14] <pibarnas> mbdl if you resize the partition, you can make a dual boot system, yeah.
[08:14] <omha> what is the KDE battery control panel called ?
[08:14] <alucard> spliffster: it won't do it, no matter if i do make-kpkg clean before hadn and run with --version (number)
[08:14] <genii> dumbalien What sort of protocol? eg? dm512 or something else
[08:15] <mbdl> pibarnas: ya i know what program should i use to resize ubuntu
[08:15] <kittyhawk> I've noticed it on a few different machines, notably with nvidia cards (and not with my old ati card)
[08:15] <dot-net> soundray: what will i do?
[08:15] <mbdl> pibarnas: b/c iknow u cant resize while running
[08:15] <Kewlb> tell me if this too OT or not.. I am building a new linux machine to run Dynamips to help me prepare for my 2nd CCIE lab attempt.. I have been out of hardware game for a long time.. how much better is a Pentium D compared to an Athalon 64 X2 ?
[08:15] <soundray> dot-net: run 'lsmod | snd-usb-audio' -- do you get any output? (Just say yes or no)
[08:15] <Phoren> updating to feisty, takes a long time at file 50/53 this normal?
[08:15] <mbdl> pibarnas would i haft to do it in the live cd for ubuntu?
[08:15] <waxyfresh> ubuntu wont install on my girlfrineds computer,soim loking for another os,any suggestions?it has to be easy and under a gig
[08:15] <pibarnas> mbdl gparted that exists on ubuntu-cd
[08:15] <Spliffster> waxyfresh: any program can seg-fault ... its now interesting to find out which program is segfaulting and when (can you paste the boot output to pastebin or put up a camara shot of your boot screen?) sgfault means nothing .. .actually ... at least not from the point of trouble shooting.
[08:16] <kriston> How complete is the Upstart system in Fiesty?
[08:16] <mbdl> gparted: thx
[08:16] <Joenin> I'll find out
[08:16] <dot-net> soundray:  command not found
[08:16] <pibarnas> mbdl considering you may be using the partition you want to ressize right now...
[08:16] <soundray> dot-net: sorry 'lsmod | grep snd-usb-audio'
[08:16] <biberao> hi
[08:16] <biberao> any of you know fonera?
[08:16] <pibarnas> mbdl maybe it's a good idea to use a live-cd to resize, because the partition must not be in use.
[08:17] <Spliffster> alucard: now this is strange. and the kernel sources are available at /usr/src/linux ? or is there a symlink missing ? if the sources are there, you might try to ask in #debian because make-kpkg is developed by the deb devs.
[08:17] <dot-net> soundray:  i tried make it and i  didnt see anything
[08:17] <dot-net> soundray:  just same paragraph
[08:17] <soundray> dot-net: okay, unplug the speakers now and run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog'
[08:18] <ere> I use OpenLDAP to authenticate users. To update the information in the directory I use various python scripts and GQ. What kind of software do you use to do the same? like chaning passwords, etc?
[08:18] <sm> morning all
[08:18] <soundray> dot-net: then plug the speakers in again and see if any error messages are shown under the tail command.
[08:18] <pibarnas> sm morning?
[08:18] <sm> how the heck do I reliably find what version of (packages matching a string) is installed, at the command line ?

[08:19] <aDDe> Hmm.. What about this one.. If I look in the device manager Ubuntu has recognized my graphic card as a Ati mobility radeon 7500 (Which it is) But when looking in "xorg.conf" it is listed as a Radeon Mobility 9000.. How come?
[08:19] <Phoren> I am trying to update the the feisty beta, but using the command 'update-manager -d' it stops at file 50/53 on the preparing the update section, is this normal?
[08:20] <soundray> xipietotec: did you launch firestarter with sudo?
[08:20] <xipietotec> soundray: yes
[08:20] <Slart> sm: there is another command too.. dpkg -l or something like that.. gives you a long list of installed packages which you can grep etc...
[08:20] <sm> soundray: thanks for trying to help. 1 is "heck" considered out of line here ? 2 your answer doesn't seem to fit

[08:30] <genii> bleh
[08:30] <Spliffster> myren_: none
[08:30] <Jacks_Depression> I am getting a "expected ')' before string consent" while trying to compile a LAN driver
[08:30] <Spliffster> myren_: you must set it with $ sudo passwd root
[08:30] <soundray> myren_: the root account is locked by default
[08:30] <Zennor> cdrom-detect: CD-ROM mount failed: device=/dev/scd1
[08:30] <xipietotec> okay....this is annoying. My laptop actually tells me "This device is connected to the network" or whatever. However, firestarter tells me that both eth0 and eth1 aren't set up...despite the fact I'm connected to either eth0 or eth1 on my laptop
[08:30] <soundray> Spliffster: no

[08:30] <regius> Hi! I'm trying to install ubuntu on a pendrive. I found this site https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent. It works great exept it don't save my changes...
[08:30] <soundray> myren_: please leave the root account locked. It is safer that way.
[08:31] <Spliffster> soundray: what no .. it worked here ?
[08:31] <waxyfresh> is there anything else out there like edubuntu?like another kids linux
[08:31] <myren_> i'll just sudo su my way in
[08:31] <regius> or sudo -s
[08:31] <soundray> myren_: sudo -i is better than sudo su (environment variables)
[08:31] <myren_> good call soundray
[08:31] <dyrne> waxyfresh: edubuntu is basically just a few packages and a theme.  you could look for kid friendly themes and choose whatever packages you want
[08:32] <soundray> Spliffster: of course it worked, and it left your machine open to brute-force root password attacks.
[08:32] <Coldopm> Can anyone help me with this issue: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=394072
[08:32] <Spliffster> soundray: well yes this is true. but it's also open to brute force attacks to my user which has sudo rights. so what !?
[08:33] <soundray> xipietotec: where does firestarter tell you that -- in the Prefs dialog?
[08:33] <soundray> Spliffster: big difference
[08:33] <chooser> Hello peeps. Can anyone tell me if *buntu live cd's detect other partitions yet?
[08:33] <soundray> Spliffster: the attacker must bruteforce your username as well.
[08:33] <Spliffster> soundray: ppl who know mw know my login name ... it's easy sniffable on the network ... blah blah bla. .. fill in all the space by yourself
[08:33] <thapa> Coldopm: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:34] <ooglaboogla> how can i merge or resize my ubuntu partition /dev/sda2 with my windows /dev/sda1 partition (which i have deleted) so the space of /dev/sda2 is increased
[08:34] <ooglaboogla> also /dev/sda1 can be made /boot
[08:34] <soundray> Spliffster: the attacker won't necessarily know that you're setup like that. While they are trying your root account, you're protected. Besides ubuntu is designed to be administered by sudo.
[08:34] <arod> how do I play 3gp videos with totem? I'm using feisty. video is fine but I got no sound

[08:35] <Coldopm> Thapa OK can you hang tight while i try this a sec?
[08:35] <oskar_> are the beta upgradable to final?'

[08:35] <rickyfingers> hey everyone what's going on?
[08:35] <Gekiblue> Firestarted won't start... It keeps giving me a 'eth0 is not ready' error... and tells me to make sure my connection is on... but clearly... my connection is on?
[08:35] <h00t> can someone tell me why everytime i try to uninstall something it's trying to remove meta package ubuntu-desktop ... can i proceed ... what are the consequences
[08:35] <xipietotec> soundray: it tells me that when I try and start the firewall it says "eth1/eth0 not ready
[08:35] <Spliffster> soundray: security by obscurity ? i hardly ever log in as root. but sometimes it's well .. umm a life saver. i am not running a single ubuntu desktop. i am running a unix network!
[08:35] <AaronMT> !faq internet
[08:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about faq internet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:35] <ooglaboogla> dyrne: i've booted from the ubuntu live cd and ran gparted but it won't let me resize /dev/sda2 towards /dev/sda1 only to make /dev/sda2 smaller
[08:36] <Coldopm> thapa r they I driver, for example i810 for intel cards?
[08:36] <Flannel> h00t: When you remove something that's part of the default desktop (which was installed because ubuntu-desktop was installed), you'll have to remove it.  It's just a metapackage, no big deal if you do remove it.
[08:36] <thapa> umm...
[08:36] <soundray> Spliffster: you are aware that security is essentially a game of probabilities, then.
[08:36] <thapa> Coldopm: Google says yes :)
[08:36] <Flannel> h00t: It only comes into play when upgrading (you want to reinstall ubuntu-desktop), but I believe the new update-manager takes care of that for you.
[08:36] <Spliffster> soundray: yes i am.
[08:36] <dyrne> ooglaboogla: maybe delete the windows parittion first so that it shows up as free space.  im not sure really havent used gparted too paranoid
[08:36] <rickyfingers> I installed a 32-bit chroot environment, or at least I think I did, I can watch flash in firefox, (had to hack the install program, though) but when I execute uname -m it still says x86_64...so is it still running in a 64 bit environment, or what?
[08:37] <soundray> Spliffster: why would you make an attacker's job easier than necessary and disable a security measure that is designed into Ubuntu?
[08:37] <Coldopm> Thapa so does ubuntu in the next step ;) brb
[08:37] <ooglaboogla> dyrne: the windows partition was deleted and i even rebooted, still not able to resize /dev/sda2 towards the left, anyone else know how to do this
[08:37] <vfdww> anyone has a good tutorial to install intel gfx cards? (dell inspiron 6400)
[08:37] <soundray> rickyfingers: uname still interrogates the kernel, which is 64bit even in the chroot. I think that's the difference.
[08:38] <Coldopm> thapa bus id is going to be fun, should I just leave it?
[08:38] <thapa> Coldopm: yes, the default values should be fine nearly everywhere
[08:38] <thapa> so, if you don't know something, hit return ;)
[08:38] <Spliffster> soundray: cracklib in place, no passwd but krb5. there are times (lucke a fucked up sudoers) i would have to trash a machine. and once an attacker is in this network i have a real problem. is hould be concerned of not letting him in in the first place. shouldn't i? once compromised i must take all machines offline or wouldn't yo uagree ?
[08:39] <genii> soundray something like how default user for files in su is still user that called su, not root
[08:39] <rickyfingers> Got it soundray, but then howcome in the howto's it says nothing about having to alter the flash plug-in installer program?  I had to guess on that for on my own.  Not that it was an amazing feat of intellectual capability, but I would expect that if I really had to do that, there'd be a hint.
[08:39] <soundray> Spliffster: btw, if you really need root as a life saver, you can set a root password and disable it afterwards with passwd -l. There's also the recovery mode root shell
[08:40] <tienbkit> hi
[08:40] <soundray> rickyfingers: go add that hint, or suggest it to the authors, then ;)
[08:40] <Spliffster> soundray: good to know

[08:40] <shaya> its updated
[08:40] <Spliffster> soundray: i mean passwd -l
[08:40] <linxeh> shaya: probably a bug :)
[08:41] <linxeh> it might be a bug in your drivers too
[08:41] <rickyfingers> Thanks, I was just looking for the go-ahead.  What I'm afraid of is that I would suggest that, and then just annoy someone who'd be like, "gosh...shut up, N00B".
[08:41] <soundray> Spliffster: no, it just locks the accound
[08:41] <soundray> account
[08:41] <Spliffster> ah
[08:41] <shafto> Umm, How do you check if 3d acceleration is turned on?
[08:41] <rickyfingers> Because depending on the community I'm hanging around, there's a big difference between the meaning of the word n00b.
[08:41] <soundray> dot-net: how are you getting on?
[08:42] <Spliffster> soundray: well you might have a point there. pitty it's not an ubuntu/debian only network.

[08:43] <thapa> Coldopm: any problems?
[08:43] <shafto> Umm, How do you check if 3d acceleration is turned on? Please someone?
[08:43] <Coldopm> Thapa I went through most of the steps blind, I am now back at command prompt...shall I reboot and see what happens?
[08:43] <thapa> Coldopm: no, it's not Windows
[08:44] <Spliffster> soundray: not sure what you mean by that, i am not talking about windows ;)
[08:44] <thapa> Coldopm: invoke-rc.d gdm restart should do
[08:44] <thapa> um, *start*, in this case
[08:44] <soundray> tienbkit: it depends. Some online music just works, for some you have to install proprietary codecs or player software.
[08:45] <Coldopm> thapa permission denied operation failed
[08:45] <thapa> oh

[08:53] <neozen> hoallo all.... got a question.... for once ... how might I synchronize time in ubuntu server from the command-line automatically on startup?
[08:53] <genii> Jacks_Depression: If one has a configure file, runit to create the Makefile eg: sudo ./configure     then after sudo make clean   then sudo make then sudo make install

[08:54] <neozen> ciaron: run it from the terminal
[08:55] <thapa> Coldopm: is there a line with "VGA compatible controller" in it?
[08:55] <thapa> Coldopm: or at least something similar
[08:55] <aDDe> dyrne: Yeah I know.. But I have also read that ppl have got it to work.. =) At the moment my beryl works just fine.. But would like to get higher resolution

[08:58] <pc_> have ppl that speeck portuguese
[08:58] <genii> Jacks_Depression: Sometimes they need the kernel headers or source to compile. So aside from build-essential you need something like packages named kernel-source Version exactly needed found out by uname -r)
[08:58] <thapa> Coldopm: anything that looks like a graphics card?

[09:00] <Coldopm> Thapa OK but my dilema is how to get it onto notebook ;p
[09:00] <l90bpm> ok, so what about read only?
[09:00] <l90bpm> was not aware it was unsafe
[09:00] <Jacks_Depression> genii: 1.6.17-10-generic, where to I look for said source?
[09:01] <B_166-ER-X> eh, is there a bug with Nautilus with the latest update ? or something ?
[09:01] <thapa> Coldopm: you are sure that it is not on your installed system?
[09:01] <B_166-ER-X> my Nautilus keeps crashing and i have no idea why
[09:01] <bobak255> hello
[09:01] <ardchoille> Jacks_Depression: Is that a typo? Shouldn't it be 2.6.17-10-generic ?
[09:01] <genii> Jacks_Depression: A good way to search for packages is use the apt-cache search function. eg: something like   sudo apt-cache search kernel|grep headers|more
[09:01] <Coldopm> Thapa, might be but how do I install it?
[09:02] <neozen> thapa: Flannel: thankee
[09:02] <Coldopm> All forums I have read suggest i810, which is the one the cd installs and does not work ;(

[09:04] <genii> xipietotec: Sometimes eth1eth2 and up need their mac address added to /etc/iftab to consistently work properly
[09:04] <thapa> Coldopm: you could try using the driver "vga", just to test if the X server works at all
[09:04] <dumbalien> Help, got beryl working but have no window borders or top bar
[09:04] <xipietotec> genii: I'll try that, thanks! =)
[09:04] <genii> xipietotec: np

[09:04] <ardchoille> dumbalien: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support

[09:05] <Zaiden> VGA might work?

[09:07] <base_slash> i want to install this program called aircrack-ng
[09:07] <abasinisvacant> i'm looking for a file that i just downloaded.  what's the terminal command to do that?
[09:07] <Jacks_Depression> genii: I have no idea

[09:07] <quaal> i just synced my disks in raid 1 array with mdadm, now fdisk -l gives /dev/md0 does not contain a valid partition table?
[09:07] <neozen> base_slash: ok
[09:07] <quaal> what is this
[09:07] <Jacks_Depression> genii: downloaded it less than a month ago
[09:07] <neozen> !install
[09:07] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[09:07] <neozen> lol
[09:07] <neozen> doh
[09:08] <thapa> Coldopm: believe me, I can absolutely understand you, I have to work with Windows at school ;)
[09:08] <ardchoille> base_slash: sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng
[09:08] <neozen> base_slash: its in the repositories you should be able to install via apt or synaptic
[09:08] <base_slash> it says that i need to extract the files to a directory
[09:08] <thapa> Coldopm: one last idea, can you handle any text editor from the command line?
[09:08] <WorldBFree> is there a checksum file i can use to check my ubuntu cd?
[09:08] <neozen> base_slash: which files... what directory
[09:08] <WorldBFree> or moreso the file i burnt to cd
[09:08] <neozen> base_slash: and what is "it"
[09:09] <skulrid> hi
[09:09] <Coldopm> Thapa have not used one yet but I learn pretty fast.... sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf~  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:09] <Coldopm> gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[09:09] <base_slash> -i am not shour it says that but i cant even mount the HD because ubuntu wont detect it
[09:09] <ardchoille> base_slash: That is in the repos, easy to install
[09:09] <iqon> WorldBFree, there's a file with checksums listed on the download page
[09:09] <genii> !headers | Jacks_Depression
[09:09] <ubotu> Jacks_Depression: To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages
[09:09] <skulrid> ive downloaded some files with amule, but the files just are not in the folder it says they are. how can I find them?
[09:09] <Coldopm> thapa oooops
[09:09] <thapa> Coldopm: gedit only works when an X server is running ;)
[09:09] <neozen> base_slash: keep in mind.... we can't see your screen... what you're looking at... or the tutorial you have open..... so you're going to have to learn to be more descriptive
[09:09] <teepark> What do I do about this problem with the multiverse repository? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12200/
[09:09] <base_slash> ok
[09:10] <Kou> Hello everyone.  I have a noobish question concerning how I can create an SSH server with Ubuntu.  Is anyone willing to help me?
[09:10] <Camaxtli> Coldopm: console editors: pico/nano/vim
[09:10] <base_slash> ok
[09:10] <neozen> Kou: its really easy
[09:10] <Camaxtli> Coldopm: I recommend nano/pico
[09:10] <Pici> !ssh | Kou
[09:10] <ubotu> Kou: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[09:10] <thapa> Coldopm: nano :)
[09:10] <base_slash> the program is called aircrack-ng
[09:10] <base_slash> oh wait
[09:10] <base_slash> got it
[09:10] <neozen> Kou: do you have your own keys... or do you want them to be autogenerated?
[09:10] <WorldBFree> iqon: i see it now thanks.  i had to select download first
[09:10] <vikingr> hi.. i've got a notebook with an intel gma950 graphics chip. i read on several forums that it runs pretty well (50-80fps) with this chip. unfortunately it doesn't on my notebook (core2duo 1.83ghz, 2 gb ram) as i only get about 10fps. here's my glxinfo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12201/ (direct rendering is set yes)
[09:10] <thapa> Coldopm: so, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:10] <skulrid> ive downloaded some files with amule, but the files just are not in the folder it says they are. how can I find them??
[09:10] <Coldopm> thapa ok
[09:10] <neozen> Kou: if this server is for personal use... you probably want them autogenerated
[09:11] <vikingr> ... i read that the game "sauerbraten" runs pretty well
[09:11] <Kou> neozen: should I be running the server or desktop edition?  I went into the package manager with the desktop edition and didn't find openssh-server there so I wiped the drive and booted with the server edition.  Bad move?
[09:11] <neozen> Kou: it doesn't matter
[09:11] <soundray> skulrid: if you've finished downloading them in the last 10 minutes, try 'find $HOME -mmin -10'
[09:11] <Kou> Which would be ideal?
[09:11] <neozen> Kou: you can install the openssh-server from either
[09:11] <genii> !info linux-source | Jacks_Depression
[09:11] <neozen> Kou: depends on your preference
[09:11] <ubotu> jacks_depression: linux-source: Linux kernel source with Ubuntu patches. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.17.11 (edgy), package size 23 kB, installed size 52 kB
[09:11] <thapa> Coldopm: look for the line with "BusID" in it
[09:11] <Kou> I really just want the computer to act as a file dump for my PC.
[09:12] <neozen> Kou: lol... then you probably won't need a gui
[09:12] <thapa> Coldopm: F6 is search
[09:12] <neozen> Kou: the server edition would probably be best for your purposes
[09:12] <Kou> Though so.  So then I'll stick with the server edition.
[09:12] <neozen> Kou: and it will leave alot more space to store your .... collection
[09:12] <Kou> ...Of music.
[09:13] <hejaasasd> Hello, i installed my ubuntu with my cdrom as master .. can i safely switch it over to slave without doing anything?
[09:13] <neozen> Kou: sudo aptitude install openssh-server
[09:13] <neozen> Kou: that will do everything you need
[09:13] <NickGarvey> how can I set up my repos to use the daily build for feisty?
[09:13] <Coldopm> thapa, lol give me one sec, messed up my keyboard when changing driver ;p
[09:13] <Flannel> NickGarvey: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support, thanks
[09:13] <Xbehave> is there any ppis there an easy way to add tags to mp3s in bulk if its a CD?
[09:13] <neozen> Kou: run it from a terminal on a gui system.... or the console from a server distro
 it showsme the files, but why are they not on the folders? how ma i suppose to open them?
[09:13] <NickGarvey> Flannel, I really really really thought I was in that channel, very sorry
[09:13] <NickGarvey> Flannel, its open.. must have bumped it heh
[09:13] <Flannel> NickGarvey: it happens ;)
[09:13] <Xbehave> *is there an easy way to add tags to mp3s in bulk if its a CD
[09:14] <neozen> Kou: got it?
[09:14] <ardchoille> Xbehave: Easytag can do some bulk tag editing.
[09:14] <soundray> skulrid: the output of that command includes the name of the folder where the files are.
[09:14] <neozen> Kou: you'll also want to update your repositories every once in a while
[09:14] <thapa> Coldopm: Control+W also searches, if F6 doesn't work
[09:14] <neozen> Kou: just to keep the server secure
[09:14] <Flannel> Xbehave: there are also rippers that check CDDB and doall that fancy stuff.
[09:15] <neozen> Kou: sudo aptitude update
[09:15] <neozen> Kou: sudo aptitude upgrade
the folders either are empy or dont exist...
[09:15] <neozen> Kou: that will get you up to date
this is weird, iv changed the output folder to a folder on my desktop, the file downloads but then thers nothing in there...
[09:15] <Kou> Wait.  So sudo aptitude install openssh-server.  I then get a few options about installing now, later, etc.
[09:15] <quaal> is it normal for fdisk -l to give a raid 1 device Disk /dev/md0 doesn't contain a valid partition table
[09:16] <neozen> Kou: install now
[09:16] <neozen> Kou: lol
[09:16] <soundray> skulrid: can you paste one of the result lines (just one please)
[09:16] <Kou> yea yea
[09:16] <WorldBFree> where on the 6.10 installation disc can i find the files vmlinuz and initrd.gz?
[09:16] <neozen> teepark: you still there?

[09:17] <Coldopm> Thapa sorry i am getting really fruterated here......I will brb ok?
[09:17] <thapa> Coldopm: five minutes?
[09:17] <neozen> Kou: for a windows pc I can recommend putty as a ssh client
[09:17] <spankdidly1> anyone get beryl to work on feisty fawn?
[09:17] <thapa> Coldopm: I'll have to go to bed soon ;)
[09:17] <Flannel> spankdidly1: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support, thanks
[09:17] <soundray> skulrid: .aMule is a hidden directory. Make sure that nautilus shows hidden files and directories via Preferences
[09:17] <NickGarvey> Flannel, you are fast
[09:18] <neozen> Kou: and for file transfers via scp or sftp I can recommend winscp
[09:18] <donnie619> hi
[09:18] <spankdidly1> ah ok thanks
[09:18] <rickyfingers_> is fiesty officially released, or is that in April?
[09:18] <spankdidly1> april
[09:18] <donnie619> Can anybody help me?
[09:18] <Pici> rickyfingers_: April, this is just !beta
[09:18] <ubuntuEdgy> guys whats this all about    WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!     @
[09:18] <ubuntuEdgy> @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
[09:18] <ubuntuEdgy> IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
[09:18] <neozen> donnie619: that is debatable
[09:18] <soundray> donnie619: jack up your car?
[09:18] <kazim86> donnie619: we hope so... ask your problem
[09:18] <Bonaldo2000> My ubuntu just freezed in the desktop and I could not do anything. This hasnt happens before. What might be the cause? Is it "what happens" or could it be serious?
[09:18] <NickGarvey> ubuntuEdgy, perhaps.. you reinstalled the computer?
 where can i change that?
[09:18] <donnie619> so, I've just installed a usb modem on ubuntu
[09:18] <ubuntuEdgy> NickGarvey:not at all
[09:18] <rickyfingers_> ubuntu-edgy: I bet you just re-installed ssh or something close to that.
[09:18] <neozen> donnie619: in future ... just state your problem... and we'll see what we can do
[09:19] <neozen> donnie619: ok
[09:19] <bill_> ubuntuEdgy, you changed your sshd keys... you need to remove them from your .ssh/known_hosts
[09:19] <donnie619> but i've got a problem with the pppd call alice
[09:19] <neozen> Kou: you all set up now?
[09:19] <soundray> skulrid: nautilus is the file manager. Edit-Preferences should give you an option on one of the tabs
[09:19] <rickyfingers_> ubuntuEdgy: bill_'s got it.
[09:19] <Malachi> I did something a LONG while back to prevent KDE apps from showing up on my GNOME menu. Now, I'd like to get them back, but I have no idea what I did. Any suggestions?
[09:19] <Coldopm> Thapa, ok I really appriciate you trying to help.....!
[09:19] <donnie619> cuz it starts writing codes
[09:19] <ubuntuEdgy>  bill_: i only changed it address
[09:19] <neozen> donnie619: wow... its been so long since I've worked with modems under linux
[09:19] <donnie619> lol i'm a newbie,
[09:19] <neozen> donnie619: give me a sec... I'll dig up a howto
[09:19] <thapa> Coldopm: you're welcome, I'm only running out of time :)
[09:19] <WorldBFree> is there a place i can download the vmlinuz and initrd.gz files to put in a directory to boot from iso?
[09:19] <donnie619> you've understoode it
[09:20] <donnie619> thx neo
[09:20] <WorldBFree> i cannot seem to find them in the iso
[09:20] <Kou> neozen - It's installed.  I have to go drop my roommate off on campus.  I'll pester you some more when I get back if need be.  Thank you.
[09:20] <nevermind> howdy
[09:20] <neozen> Kou: my pleasure
[09:20] <bill_> ubuntuEdgy, you must have changed it to one that you already had a stored key for, so you need to remove the stored key that doesn't match the current machine at that address
[09:20] <rdesh> ello
[09:20] <neozen> Kou: enjoy your file dump
 thnaks I can see the files now :)
[09:20] <Coldopm> Thapa you were a great help.....I will figure it out
[09:20] <rickyfingers_> WorldBFree: is it that you can't boot from CD but can from floppy?
[09:21] <thapa> Coldopm: okay, otherwise tomorrow, same time? ;)
[09:21] <hejaasasd> Hello, i installed my ubuntu with my cdrom as master .. can i safely switch it over to slave without doing anything?
[09:21] <Coldopm> To be honest I would not be surprised if MDG puts hardware in that makes it as hard as possible to not use MS
[09:21] <WorldBFree> rickyfingers, well i finally found a blank cd laying around at work but the disc has an error on it and wont load.  i want to boot the iso from hdd
[09:21] <ubuntuEdgy> so do i just delete every thing in this file .ssh/known_hosts, this really scared me by the way
[09:21] <ubuntuEdgy> :)
[09:21] <donnie619> oh, I was so happy when I installed the modem after 3 days
[09:21] <kazim86> i want sshd to listen on some other port than 80
[09:21] <donnie619> and now I can't connect!
[09:21] <genii> KIt shouldn't be listening on port 80 to begin with
[09:21] <Pici> kazim86: It usually listens on 22
[09:21] <nevermind> hejaasasd: shouldnt be a problem, just do an fdisk -l afterwards
[09:22] <kazim86> Pici: thats blocked.... can i make it listen at 8080...
[09:22] <nevermind> and in case your drive changed, correct the line in /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:22] <nevermind> that corresponds to it
[09:22] <Xinxin> today I installed feisty on a machine with Vista already installed, and when I rebooted it ran vista. what should i do to fix that?
[09:22] <WorldBFree> rickyfingers, i saw how to boot from hdd but i need the files vmlinuz and initrd.gz to be placed in the proper directory.  i cannot seem to find these files
[09:22] <nevermind> sshd doesnt listen on 80, kazim86
[09:22] <arkanes> Xinxin: you need to install a bootloader
[09:22] <nevermind> sshd listens on 22
[09:23] <Xinxin> arkanes: yes, grub should have been activated and installed by the setup process, no?
[09:23] <Pici> kazim86: I would think that editing /etc/ssh/sshd_config should change it
[09:23] <IdleOne> !grub | Xinxin
[09:23] <ubotu> Xinxin: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:23] <Malachi> Xinxin: It should be; have you noticed it?
[09:23] <rickyfingers_> WorldBFree: I think it's possible, but it's unusual.  I never heard of doing that, but in theory, I think it's possible.  The thing would be to put an image of a first stage boot floppy on your HD, but that would blow away anything you had on the floppy.  What kind of resoureces are you working with?  CD's are about $0.35 cents a piece.  That's not a lot of money, but I know money doesn't grow on trees.
[09:23] <nevermind> kazim86: for further info "man sshd_config"
[09:23] <nevermind> works all the time;)
[09:23] <Xinxin> ubotu: thing is, it's not after installing windows. it's after installing ubuntu!
[09:23] <sisplau> ;D
[09:23] <Zaiden> Is there a way to have the Live CD detect my graphics card and not the onboard card?
[09:23] <rickyfingers_> WorldBFree: I meant blow away anything on the first partition of your HD.
[09:24] <Camaxtli> Xinxin: You can boot Ubuntu as well?
[09:24] <WorldBFree> rickyfingers, its not about cost its just that i dont have any laying around and would save myself a trip today
[09:24] <hejaasasd> nevermind: thank ill try :D
[09:24] <neozen> Xinxin: that's a known problem with vista
[09:24] <rickyfingers_> Zaiden: mabe you can disable the on-board graphics card in the bios.
[09:24] <nevermind> Zaiden: sure, disable the onboard card could do a great job for ya;)
[09:24] <Xinxin> neozen: is there a solution?
[09:24] <donnie619> yes xin
[09:24] <donnie619> forget about vista
[09:24] <WorldBFree> ive booted from an iso before with another distro, it works very easy, you just need two files and to edit the menu.lst
[09:24] <Xinxin> donnie619: not an option, sadly
[09:24] <Zaiden> nevermind: How do I do that?
[09:24] <neozen> Xinxin: seems to mess with the bootsector even after it changed
[09:24] <sisplau> what time is it?
[09:24] <nevermind> Zaiden: at pc boot press "del" key
[09:25] <nevermind> Zaiden: if its a laptop, might be f2
[09:25] <nevermind> Zaiden: thatll lead you into bios
[09:25] <rickyfingers_> Zaiden: you can also make a bootable mem stick...if you're in for some tinkering.
[09:25] <nevermind> Zaiden: your basic pc os
[09:25] <Kevlar_Soul> Greenpeace said LINUX is Green today
[09:25] <neozen> Xinxin: I'll take a look
[09:25] <rickyfingers_> WorldBFree: : you can also make a bootable mem stick...if you're in for some tinkering.
[09:25] <neozen> Xinxin: wait 5
[09:25] <Kevlar_Soul> To use Linux rrather than MS
[09:25] <Kevlar_Soul> plus
[09:25] <Xinxin> neozen: ok, thx for the help
[09:25] <Kevlar_Soul> England did a business study and said its cheaper to use linux
[09:25] <Petaris> Hello
[09:25] <donnie619> neozen, sorry, have you find out that link? :)
[09:26] <Petaris> can anyone tell me what the name of the network config binary is?
[09:26] <Kevlar_Soul> If everyone uses Linux, that'll suck
[09:26] <Zaiden> I think the reason I keep getting an X server error is because it never detects the graphics card I have, but the onboard card.
[09:26] <Kevlar_Soul> we wont be special
[09:26] <donnie619> ah to everybody, sorry 4 my english
[09:26] <Pici> !offtopic
[09:26] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:26] <neozen> donnie619: nope.... sorry
[09:26] <thcmonkey> right i've set up a windows network  on my ubuntu machine
[09:26] <neozen> donnie619: take a look in the forums @ ubuntuforums.org
[09:26] <donnie619> nooooooooo!!! oh, it doesn't matter :)
[09:26] <Kevlar_Soul> congratulations
[09:26] <thcmonkey> but when i connect to \\charlie-desktop from my xp machine it asks me for user and password...
[09:26] <Xinxin> another question: outbound irc connections are blocked by the firewall at my workplace. is there a way to access this channel, say over the web somehow?
[09:26] <nevermind> Kevlar_Soul: one hot tip for our brits: dont spy on your folks, and youll have some money to spare;L=)
[09:26] <sisplau> donnie619: how do you from?
[09:26] <neozen> donnie619: search for your modem's model number and such....
[09:26] <thcmonkey> but i try my username and password on ubuntu machine and it doesn't work
[09:26] <Kevlar_Soul> lol
[09:27] <donnie619> Italy sis :)
[09:27] <rbil> Zaiden: if that is the case then blacklist the onboard video if there's no other way to turn it off in BIOS or switches on mobo
[09:27] <Kevlar_Soul> Xinxin:  use a different port, you can set the ports manually....dont have to use 667
[09:27] <Kevlar_Soul> 6667
[09:27] <donnie619> oh but that log is quite strange
[09:27] <sisplau> im fron spain
[09:27] <genii> Xinxin: You may be able to find some outise site running cgiirc
[09:27] <donnie619> how can he write codes when i press pppd call alice
[09:27] <donnie619> ohhh de Espana,
[09:28] <sisplau> siiii
[09:28] <Xinxin> Kevlar_Soul: but i need a server with that port, no? i only have a client
[09:28] <sisplau> xD
[09:28] <nevermind> guys, please stay english;)
[09:28] <Zaiden> When I'm in the BIOS, how do I blacklist the Onboard?
[09:28] <neozen> Xinxin: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=371530&highlight=vista
[09:28] <sisplau> sorry ;D
[09:28] <neozen> Xinxin: that might work for you
[09:28] <donnie619> oh estudio el espanol tambin :D
[09:28] <nevermind> donnie619: what do you mean by "write codes"
[09:28] <neozen> Xinxin: best of luck
[09:28] <donnie619> ehm,
[09:28] <donnie619> let's say that
[09:28] <Kevlar_Soul> Xinxin: most servers accept many ports
[09:28] <rickyfingers_> Xinxin: some irc clients let you choose the port to connect on.  I don't know if this would work for sure, but just connect on port 80, then write a little c program that listens on 80 and writes everything to port 660 or whatever the common irc port is, then it might work.
[09:28] <donnie619> when I write pppd call alcie
[09:29] <donnie619> he starts putting codes
[09:29] <donnie619> without a sense
[09:29] <donnie619> like =?=)?=("
[09:29] <genii> Xinxin: The cgiirc program is a web based interface to irc. But if you run it inside your firewall it still will be locked out of course. However you may find some site that lets you put int he server address, that is using this program
[09:29] <nevermind> donnie619: those are connection strings
[09:29] <rickyfingers_> Xinxin: I would say that, if you can connect on port 80 to a server, do that. They won't shut that one down at work.
[09:29] <donnie619> ohhhhhh
[09:29] <mom> I have a printer connected to this machine (ubuntu dapper) and can print from it fine. How can i print to it from a Windows XP Pro machine?
[09:29] <nevermind> donnie619: they make perfect sense to your modem;)
[09:29] <donnie619> :D
[09:29] <Kevlar_Soul> Xinxin:  TYPE ./server   irc.server.org  ### <---port number
[09:29] <donnie619> you alread know that I'm newbie
[09:29] <Kevlar_Soul> ./server SERVERADDRESS  SERVERPORT
[09:29] <donnie619> In Italian Slang we say "niubbo"
[09:29] <nevermind> donnie619: everyone is at some point
[09:30] <mom> (i just realized my nick is mom...)
[09:30] <Sayers> What's the alternative to AmoraK for Gnome?
[09:30] <Xinxin> rickyfingers_: you know any servers running on port 80? :)
[09:30] <dcordes> !rtfm
[09:30] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[09:30] <neozen> mom: lol
[09:30] <nevermind> Sayers: there are plenty, i like totem
[09:30] <dcordes> just wanted to try
[09:30] <dcordes> !botsnack
[09:30] <ubotu> Yum!
[09:30] <Xinxin> neozen: thanks. unfortunately, i did something like that and don't get the grub menu at all...
[09:30] <donnie619> in any case,
[09:30] <neozen> Xinxin: drag mon
[09:30] <donnie619> when it starts with those strings
[09:30] <rickyfingers_> Xinxin: Just about every doggone web server in the world.  That's why it won't get blocked, unless they want to block like the whole internet.  On the other hand, they can still block specific domains...
[09:30] <donnie619> it doesn't connect
[09:30] <neozen> Xinxin: I honestly don't know what to tell you...
[09:30] <Xinxin> rickyfingers_: um, i mean an IRC server running on port 80
[09:30] <neozen> Xinxin: I don't run vista
[09:30] <nevermind> donnie619: eventually you need to set some params for alice
[09:30] <ozubu> hi all
[09:31] <Sayers> nevermind : I want a cool one , just for media
[09:31] <Sayers> I mean songs*
[09:31] <nevermind> donnie619: i dont use alice, so i wouldnt know exactly, might try google up on it though
[09:31] <ozubu> I am trying to enable a wifi card on a LG laptop
[09:31] <donnie619> I've configured it
[09:31] <ozubu> can any help me ?
[09:31] <neozen> Xinxin: you problem is due to something funky that vista does with the boot sector
[09:31] <donnie619> but I don't understand why it goes on like that
[09:31] <nevermind> Sayers: rythmbox
[09:31] <nevermind> Sayers: the name says it all
[09:31] <rickyfingers_> Xinxin: someone above said that you can give your IRC client a command to connect on an arbitrary port. If that's so, 80's usually not blocked.
[09:31] <Xinxin> Xinxin: yes. i have no clue about that tho, sadly
[09:32] <mom> I have a printer connected to this machine (ubuntu dapper) and can print from it fine. How can i print to it from a Windows XP Pro machine over the network?
[09:32] <Xinxin> rickyfingers_: yes, but which server can i connect to to access #ubuntu on port 80??
[09:32] <LadyNikon> ozubu: does it have a wifi switch? that needs to be turned on?
[09:32] <nevermind> ozubu: please "sudo lspci"
[09:32] <Xinxin> rickyfingers_: if you don't know, that's fine....
[09:32] <nevermind> ozubu: please also "lspcmcia"
[09:32] <nevermind> ozubu: so we find out what card you have
[09:32] <Sayers> nevermind : Rythmbox is blargish
[09:32] <nevermind> ozubu: the rest should be a piece of a cake
[09:32] <neozen> mom: wow... consider yourself lucky..... printing from linux is... iffy
[09:33] <nevermind> Sayers: what do you mean by "blargish"
[09:33] <rickyfingers_> Xinxin: the command is /server hostname port-number
[09:33] <neozen> mom: you'll need to use samba on the linux machine to share the printer
[09:33] <donnie619> ahhhhhhhhh I hate usb modems
[09:33] <Xinxin> rickyfingers_: ok whatever
[09:33] <iskin> Getting an "Error authenticating some packages" from libgl1-mesa* and can't upgrade to Feisty. Is there any way around it?
[09:33] <neozen> !samba
[09:33] <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
[09:33] <nevermind> donnie619: word on that, now we gonna write mail to the companies;)
[09:33] <kayak_matt> Is there a bug with printing which caused a several minute delay for items sent to the printer? I have noticed this in the past.
[09:33] <mom> neozen: i have samba installed, how do i configure it to share the printer?
[09:33] <rickyfingers_> Xinxin: what I don't know is how true it is that most IRC servers will allow you to connect on any port.  Let me see...
[09:33] <neozen> mom: well.... that depends....
[09:33] <donnie619> oh good
[09:34] <neozen> mom: there's a lot of ways to do it
[09:34] <neozen> !swat
[09:34] <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
[09:34] <genii> Xinxin: There is a cgiirc interface you can type in the server particulars here:  http://irc.oasis-open.org/cgi-bin/cgiirc/irc.cgi I just tried it with irc.freenode.net and it works fine
[09:34] <Budtske> Switched to ubuntu today, i can mount all my drives fine, but 3 of them keep giving permission denied errors except on root (have done chown -R *user*:*group* and chmod 666) any idea ?
[09:34] <donnie619> so
[09:34] <nevermind> donnie619: actually i have no prob with usb, i just have a prob with all the closed protocols that companies use over it, that make it darn hard to actual write device mods
[09:34] <donnie619> yeah i see
[09:34] <donnie619> so you say that
[09:34] <donnie619> it's a configuration problem?
[09:34] <neozen> who's got experience setting up swat?
[09:35] <donnie619> and those "arabian" strings are normal?
[09:35] <nevermind> donnie619: id guess so, from what ive read from ya
[09:35] <Budtske> neo: i just did
[09:35] <nevermind> donnie619: yes, they are
[09:35] <donnie619> ok thx, now I've got something
[09:35] <nevermind> donnie619: if youre kind of ace, you may read from those chars whats wrong
[09:35] <Budtske> neozen: http://copia.ogbuji.net/blog/2006-01-26/The_madnes , except remove the comment after the user, and dont use root
[09:35] <neozen> Budtske: you mind talking mom through it... she's trying to share a local printer on her linux machine...
[09:35] <donnie619> oh, I haven't understood lol,
[09:36] <mom> lol im a he for the record
[09:36] <donnie619> "kind of ace"
[09:36] <donnie619> :D
[09:36] <donnie619> what does it mean?
[09:36] <neozen> mom: lol
[09:36] <sisplau> siamo amichi :P
[09:36] <mom> this is mt moms computer lol i forgot to change the nick
[09:36] <nevermind> donnie619: pro/freak
[09:36] <neozen> mom: lol... that's ok
[09:36] <neozen> mom: sorry about the mistake
[09:36] <trond> How do I start a program minimized in the gnome-session manager
[09:36] <dcordes> ok mom
[09:36] <trond> ?
[09:36] <kayak_matt> Has anyone else experienced printing delays?
[09:36] <neozen> mom: on irc, you can change your nick by using "/nick nicknameyouwanttouse"
[09:37] <nevermind> trond: do a program --help in the shell
[09:37] <nevermind> trond: and look if it has an option for minimizing
[09:37] <d1gital> there we go
[09:37] <neozen> there you go
[09:37] <neozen> lol
[09:37] <Budtske> neozen: shares i can handle, printers i have no experience with (print$ share with drivers right??? )
[09:37] <neozen> Budtske: well... the printer seems to work just fine in linux....
[09:37] <neozen> Budtske: shouldn't be too difficult to share
[09:38] <neozen> _shouldn't_ being the key phrase
[09:38] <nevermind> short note on side... whenever i get in here its scrolling that fast, are you guys 24/7;)
[09:38] <Budtske> neozen: setting up swat on ubuntu was a bitch, just switched from debian today
[09:38] <d1gital> yes, i can print fine from the computer it is connected to
[09:38] <Budtske> neozen: "a bitch" being still way easyer then any debian problem ive encoutered though :>
[09:39] <neozen> Budtske: great
[09:39] <kayak_matt> d1gital: And there is no delay when you print?
[09:39] <neozen> wonder why we recommend it then
[09:39] <nevermind> Budtske: nother q, whats cheaper;)
[09:39] <rickyfingers_> Xinxin: well, I just tried it, and I can tell you that not every irc server will just let you join on any port.
[09:39] <d1gital> kayak_matt: not that i have noticed

[09:40] <ubuntuEdgy> hi , i have a issue here , after moving my hard drive about i on gparted it now tells me its "unallocated"
[09:40] <Artemis3> anyone who uses beryl in edgy has noted considerable slowdown switching tabs inside firefox? (and always going into gray for a while)?
[09:41] <Budtske> FiRaRdA: sudo apt-get install java-common
[09:41] <rickyfingers_> No, but I do have sound card problems.  If I try to adjust the volume using the main gnome volume control (over by the time) I get no more sound until I reboot. Anyone know what that is?
[09:41] <nevermind> Budtske: in case , have you checked the default fs on em?
[09:41] <nevermind> Budtske: you usually cannot mount a swap partition
[09:41] <Budtske> yes, ext3
[09:41] <FiRaRdA> Budtske: Ok! Thanks..
[09:41] <neozen> d1gital: I'm looking
[09:41] <Budtske> nevermind: im verry sure of the fs type and can access them fine under root
[09:41] <RedRose> nevermind, WHat?

[09:42] <alucard> how do i get mkinitrd on ubuntu
[09:42] <adaptr> sarixe: mutt does all that
[09:42] <theacolyte> nani: do you want to connect to a vpn or set up a vpn server?
[09:42] <neozen> adaptr: really..... awesome
[09:43] <nevermind> for vpn server: openvpn as one of many
[09:43] <sarixe> adaptr: i tried mutt... but i couldn't figure out how to set up a mail account
[09:43] <nani> theacolyte: i want to setup a vpn server
[09:43] <nevermind> for vpn connection, try pppd
[09:43] <sarixe> realize that i'm coming from thundebird.

[09:43] <ubernewb> hey all anyone have a good howto for 64 bit freenx
[09:43] <adaptr> sarixe: well, perhaps man mutt would help ?
[09:43] <sarixe> adaptr: thanks.  i didn't think of that... brb
[09:43] <rickyfingers_> ubuntuEdgy: whew....I'd try booting off something like the knoppix cd, and first of all run cfdisk and see if that tells you anything about partitions, and then try mounting them...I'm assuming fstype is something easy like ext3?
[09:43] <IcemanV9> how do i restart evolution-data-server? i do not see one in /etc/init.d.
[09:43] <Budtske> if i look at them in root i can copy anything to another partition a normal user has access too and works fine, doubt its a fs problem , i must be forgetting some simple permission stuff
[09:43] <theacolyte> !openvpn @ nani

[09:46] <nevermind> IcemanV9: if im right, init.d stands for initialize.daemons
[09:46] <neozen> mtrcn: ok.. what part of it are you having trouble with?
[09:46] <kevin> tanyone have any ideas?
[09:46] <d1gital> or i could always just start screwing around with the conf file and hope i dont screw anything up
[09:46] <IcemanV9> nevermind: yea, i thought it would be there, but it is not ... i just want to restart it after modifying the config file
[09:46] <d1gital> wow screw without screwing... i love my word choice
[09:46] <Oritemis> guys, how do I disable temporally the iptables?
[09:46] <neozen> d1gital: lol.... well... just back it up before you edit it
[09:46] <nevermind> IcemanV9: try a killall -HUP yourprocessname
[09:47] <mtrcn> neozen: I dont know how to apply patch
[09:47] <beoba> hey, when installing mutt, why does it need to also install postfix?
[09:47] <d1gital> did :-)
[09:47] <nevermind> IcemanV9: *might* work
[09:47] <beoba> not 'recommends', either
[09:47] <colbert> !sound
[09:47] <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
[09:47] <xtknight> RichiH: did you call my name earlier ?
[09:47] <rickyfingers_> d1gital: just cp conf conf.bak before you do anything
[09:47] <IcemanV9> nevermind: ok.
[09:47] <neozen> !patch
[09:47] <ubotu> patch: Apply a diff file to an original. In component main, is optional. Version 2.5.9-4 (edgy), package size 93 kB, installed size 188 kB
[09:47] <sarixe> adaptr: i tried... but i just couldn't do it
[09:48] <neozen> mtrcn: lol... that should do it
[09:48] <adaptr> sarixe: my best wishes are with you :)
[09:48] <bluefox83> anyone here tried e17 for ubuntu yet?
[09:48] <Chai_Sangeen> hello everybody
[09:48] <mtrcn> neozen: what way? how?
[09:48] <sarixe> adaptr: you have any other client suggestions?
[09:48] <neozen> mtrcn: wait... looks like there's no need to apply the patch anyway
[09:48] <Oritemis> guys, how do I disable temporally the iptables?
[09:49] <iskin> bluefox83: Yes. It works alright
[09:49] <neozen> mtrcn: take a look below the ad
[09:49] <Chai_Sangeen> can anyone help config the driver for epia board? i have the M1000 CLE266 direct rendering is not enabled.
[09:49] <dcordes> when i try to boot my edgy, it freezes after the splash screen appears. when i boot the recovery mode it boots up fine. i used startx then to get a gnome session. any ideas on how i can solve this?
[09:49] <sarixe> adaptr: guess not
[09:49] <neozen> mtrcn: and you might want to look on the ubuntuforums for this.... will have more relevant guides
[09:49] <snez> yeah, my printer takes at least 10 seconds to print a single page
[09:49] <kevin> anyone know why I cant install xchat-systray?
[09:49] <Chai_Sangeen> its running edgy with mythfrontend
[09:49] <nevermind> Chai_Sangeen: i guess you googled, those stuff is always so special....
[09:49] <nevermind> Chai_Sangeen: cannot make general suggestions
[09:49] <trond> Bluefox83: Will it ever be released? :b
[09:49] <neozen> mtrcn: I take it you're trying to enable this webcam under an ubuntu derivative?
[09:49] <dougie> How would i go about making my media card reader work in ubuntu? It's built into my laptop.
[09:50] <bluefox83> iskin, i'm having issues configuring things, and there is like, absolutely no documentation on anything yet...
[09:50] <trond> bluefox: They have coded on that thing since the start of this decade? :)
[09:50] <ardchoille> kevin: Do you get an error? If so, what is the error? What is preventing you from installing it?
[09:50] <nevermind> dougie: if it doesnt yet, youll need to compile the driver prolly
[09:50] <disasm> I got an odd python issue... Using pyraf (astronomy software), it tries to import module LinearAlgebra (which is part of numeric) numeric is installed from ubuntu, and breaks a lot of things if removed. The version in ubuntu doesn't contain module LinearAlgebra. If I download numeric, and install it manually to anywhere but /usr it still has issues, if I install it to /usr it works fine though, any suggestions?
[09:50] <nevermind> dougie: but first, check with an lspci
[09:50] <Chai_Sangeen> nevermind, well i searched google and ubuntu forums but couldnt find anything interesting except openchrome
[09:50] <bluefox83> trond, i'm in it right now...you can install it via apt if you add their repositories to your sources.list
[09:50] <nevermind> dougie: and then if he has it, try some card reader app, if it may access it
[09:50] <holycow> dougie, if it doesn't work right away chances are its not supported on linux at all
[09:50] <ferronica> Any one here expert in mobile phones????   :(
[09:50] <neozen> dougie: or look up in the forums with your laptop model number and card reader
[09:50] <trond> bluefox83: I am fine in Beryl and Emerald thanks :)
[09:50] <neozen> dougie: might get lucky
[09:51] <disasm> I was possibly considering building a new python-numeric package, but I've never built a python package before...
[09:51] <nevermind> Chai_Sangeen: tell me a bit more bout that hw, whats it built in, is it a laptop, a pc, a server
[09:51] <mtrcn> neozen: yes I'm using Mepis
[09:51] <nevermind> Chai_Sangeen: the component doesnt say a thing to me exactly;)
[09:51] <disasm> package being deb
[09:51] <adaptr> sarixe: try pine, I may have been confusing the two :)
[09:51] <dougie> 06:09.3 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller
[09:51] <dougie>  think this is it?
[09:51] <Chai_Sangeen> it used to run windows on it but im converting everyting at home to linux so no experience with this board.
[09:51] <theacolyte> anyone know a good snmp/mib browser with a GUI?
[09:51] <neozen> !mepis
[09:51] <ubotu> Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems)
[09:51] <bluefox83> trond, yeah i'm thinking i might go back to gnome...i been waiting on enlightenment's e17 for a long time, i had high hopes..it's clean and all..but there's no documentation and it's a pain to configure...
[09:51] <neozen> mtrcn: aaah
[09:51] <neozen> mtrcn: ok
[09:52] <neozen> mtrcn: well welcome
[09:52] <IcemanV9> nevermind: found it in top and restarted it; thanks for pointing it out to another way to restart it. :)
[09:52] <Chai_Sangeen> nevermind, i tried using knippmyth and video was working fine .... but still i won't give up on edgy :)
[09:52] <neozen> mtrcn: what model of camera?
[09:52] <nevermind> Chai_Sangeen: in case, try to boot the livecd, try it, if theres anything not working, make a short list, and put it on some page
[09:52] <bluefox83> and whoever said "if it doesn't work right away, it probably doesn't work in linux" is wrong
[09:52] <xtknight> disasm: it's a conflict of installations.  (if /usr works but nothing else does)
[09:52] <mtrcn> neozen: by the way, I'm from Turkey, nice to meet you!
[09:52] <neozen> mtrcn: ah...
[09:52] <xtknight> disasm: if for example /usr/local doesnt work then you need to set some variable to be pointing to /usr/local instead of /usr
[09:53] <neozen> mtrcn: I'm in chicago, US
[09:53] <phuzzie> so, I just hooked up a USB ext. hdd...how do I find what device it is for mkfs and mount?
[09:53] <iskin> bluefox83: Have you done 'enlightenment-remote help' ion the command?
[09:53] <neozen> mtrcn: what make/model of camera?
[09:53] <mtrcn> neozen: Bus 001 Device 004: ID 05e1:0501 Syntek Semiconductor Co., Ltd
[09:53] <nevermind> Chai_Sangeen: yeah, edgy is a hell of a system, best os i have ever seen and ive seen many
[09:53] <Chai_Sangeen> nevermind, good idea ... i'm noting everything down so ill post it on some website... when done...
[09:53] <mtrcn> my lsusb's result
[09:53] <frojnd> hello! how can I get info about size of the installed package (before I do sudo apt-get install package) ??
[09:53] <bluefox83> dougie, my girlfriend's computer has 4 built in card slots for flash media cards, she never had to do anything to get them to work, they just did
[09:53] <disasm> xtknight: yes, I even tried removing /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages from my PYTHONPATH env var and it still fails
[09:53] <kevin> ardchoille, I have xchat, xchat-common, and xchat-sys already installed, when i try to install xchat-systray through synaptic it tells me i need to remove xchat and xchat-sys, if i click ok its returns an error saying "xchat-systray: depends xchat but its not going to be installed
[09:53] <nevermind> Chai_Sangeen: including lspci and lsusb output
[09:53] <nevermind> Chai_Sangeen: just in case;)
[09:53] <bluefox83> iskin, no, didn't know that was an option!
[09:53] <neozen> mtrcn: I was looking more along the lines of a model number off the bottom of the camera itself
[09:54] <neozen> mtrcn: but I'll see what I can do
[09:54] <dougie> nevermind: is this it? 06:09.3 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller
[09:54] <dougie> 06:09.4 Generic system peripheral [0805] : Texas Instruments PCI6411/6421/6611/6621/7411/7421/7611/7621 Secure Digital Controller
[09:54] <disasm> xtknight: what I'm really wondering is why ubuntu's version doesn't have LinearAlgebra?
[09:54] <xtknight> disasm: hmm well it sounds like you're a step ahead of my suggestions
[09:54] <nevermind> dougie: yes, so your sys knows it
[09:54] <iskin> bluefox83: It will show youall the configure options but it still isn't very intuitive.
[09:54] <nevermind> dougie: good chance its already working
[09:54] <disasm> xtknight: thanks for the help
[09:54] <bluefox83> iskin, i just did, nothing happened...
[09:54] <dougie> nevermind: ok so...how do i get it to mount or what not?
[09:54] <xtknight> disasm: linearalgebra, it's a python module?
[09:54] <ardchoille> kevin: I've heard quite a few people say xchat-systray isn't all that great. Why do you want it if you already have xchat?
[09:54] <nevermind> dougie: fdisk -l
[09:54] <Chai_Sangeen> nevermind, yeah  gotta love it even removed my osx from my macbook and running only edgy....
[09:55] <disasm> xtknight: it's part of numeric
[09:55] <neozen> mtrcn: looks like a driver is in the works
[09:55] <xtknight> disasm: ill see what i can do i hate giving up on things
[09:55] <neozen> mtrcn: http://syntekdriver.sourceforge.net/
[09:55] <disasm> xtknight: some reason ubuntu removes it (it's in debian)
[09:55] <dougie> nevermind: no output
[09:55] <xtknight> disasm: oh what's the pkg name for Debian?
[09:55] <nevermind> dougie: write "sudo fdisk -l"
[09:55] <nevermind> dougie: has to work;)
[09:55] <morrolan> Hi, is there a seperate channel for Ubuntu-server by any chance?
[09:55] <xtknight> !server
[09:55] <mtrcn> neozen: Yes...
[09:55] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[09:55] <nevermind> dougie: on the other hand, try "sudo dmesg |grep sd"
[09:55] <bluefox83> dougie, from my experience, flash card readers auto-mount... my girlfreind's just lets you slide the card in and you go to places-. computer and it's listed as a drive
[09:55] <morrolan> thanks
[09:55] <drewzf> I have vnc4server configured on a server, everything connects okay but I get a grey screen post-login. I have modified my gdm.conf to enable gdmlogin to run for remote-greeting and xdmcp is turned 'on'
[09:55] <kevin> ardchoille im using Konversation right now, i like the sys tray feature it has but I want to get away from KDE apps
[09:55] <drewzf> Where else should I look to resolve the issue?
[09:55] <disasm> xtknight: python2.4-numeric
[09:55] <phuzzie> nm, found it looking through /var/log/messsages, I guess it choose sdb
[09:56] <ardchoille> kevin: Ah, ok.
[09:56] <dougie> nevermind: ok it worked....but it only lists my 2 hard drive partitions
[09:56] <Chai_Sangeen> nevermind, i just downloaded imedia distro i think its debian based... will check it out and report back....
[09:56] <indotel> \
[09:56] <Flannel> morrolan: this is it.  That factoid is wrong.
[09:56] <bluefox83> dougie, did you slide a card in?
[09:56] <trond> Is the firestarter daemon named "watchdog/0"?
[09:56] <neozen> mtrcn: they should have a guide on how to install their driver and what is supported
[09:56] <iskin> bluefox83: I meant 'enlightenment_remote help'.
[09:56] <xtknight> !info python-numeric | disasm
[09:56] <ubotu> disasm: python-numeric: Numerical (matrix-oriented) Mathematics for Python. In component main, is optional. Version 24.2-5build1 (edgy), package size 176 kB, installed size 656 kB
[09:56] <dougie> bluefox83: yes its in
[09:56] <trond> Starting it without gui and I am unsure whether it is running
[09:56] <kevin> ardchoille are there any other full featured irc clients out there
[09:56] <neozen> bluefox83: looks like he did... it shows up in lsusb
[09:56] <disasm> xtknight: I think I might have found something, my debian system has python2.4-numeric-ext installed, looks like they separate it, attempting to add that to ubuntu right now, will let you know what happens
[09:56] <bluefox83> dougie, very odd...sorry it's not working as expected
[09:56] <morrolan> Thanks Flannel
[09:56] <nevermind> dougie: then try this "sudo dmesg |grep sd"
[09:57] <iskin> You might want to pipe it thru more too.
[09:57] <morrolan> Hi, I've just installed ubuntu-server, and I'm struggling to create an SQL database?
[09:57] <xtknight> disasm: see the message from ubotu, also !universe and !multiverse
[09:57] <nevermind> dougie: that should show you any "sd ..." media
[09:57] <RoundyT1> morrolan, do you have a gui installed?
[09:57] <ardchoille> kevin: I use irssi (I dislike gui's) and I hear bitchx is good too, but they're both text-based.
[09:57] <dougie> [44964.932000]  tifm_7xx1: sd card detected in socket 3
[09:57] <dougie> [44966.044000]  tifm_sd: card failed to respond for a long period of time<6>tifm_7xx1: demand removing card from socket 3
[09:57] <disasm> xtknight: I have universe and multiverse already ;-)
[09:57] <andred__> My usb disk isn't mounted automatically on bootup, but if I do "mount /media/Data" it is mounted. What could be wrong? Here is my fstab line for the drive:  UUID=4576-DE1E       /media/Data      vfat      defaults,iocharset=utf8,umask=007,gid=46    0      1
[09:57] <neozen> dougie: in the future ... when buying a camera... be sure it supports the v4l (video4linux) standards or they have a positive review for it....
[09:57] <Flannel> morrolan: Alright.  Do you already have some flavor of SQL installed?
[09:57] <morrolan> Hi, I've just installed ubuntu-server, and I'm struggling to create an SQL database?  I tried:  mysqladmin -u username -p create databasename
[09:57] <xtknight> disasm: is python-numeric not the package you were looking for?
[09:57] <nevermind> dougie: that does not sound too good
[09:57] <kevin> ardchoille ok thanks
[09:57] <nevermind> dougie: try to insert nother card
[09:57] <drewzf> I have vnc4server configured on a server, everything connects okay but I get a grey screen post-login. I have modified my gdm.conf to enable gdmlogin to run for remote-greeting and xdmcp is turned 'on'
[09:57] <nevermind> dougie: maybe just got a bad one;)
[09:57] <neozen> dougie: they handle a lot of the webcam type stuff
[09:58] <xtknight> disasm: it replaces the debian pkg you mentioned, python2.4-numeric
[09:58] <morrolan> Flannel it isn't on this machine, it is on the other side of the room and I've ssh'd into it
[09:58] <dougie> neozen: i can connect it via usb no problem i just want the car reader to work
[09:58] <morrolan> mysql is installed
[09:58] <mtrcn> neozen: but I didnt find anything :(
[09:58] <RoundyT1> What is the best program to edit php websites and things with?
[09:58] <nevermind> dougie: then try nother usb port
[09:58] <nevermind> dougie: also sometimes works for me with usb crap:
[09:58] <RoundyT1> or base phph sites off of
[09:58] <dougie> nevermind: its not a usb port lol its the card reader
[09:58] <cyris> is their an equivellent to system-auth ?
[09:58] <neozen> oh wait... sorry dougie.. that wasn't for you
[09:58] <nevermind> dougie: 1. connect the usb device
[09:58] <Flannel> morrolan: Ok, did you set a mysql root password yet?
[09:58] <neozen> meant for mtrcn
[09:59] <Sayers> for some reason the built in CD writer doesn't let me write on a cd more than once... ?
[09:59] <nevermind> dougie: 2. power off and power on the usb device
[09:59] <disasm> xtknight: that package is installed, I'm testing python-numeric-ext right now, app takes a while to run though
[09:59] <nevermind> dougie: 3. insert media
[09:59] <morrolan> ahhh, no?  I get an error saying that access for username@localhost is denied
[09:59] <neozen> (this is what I get for trying to handle more then one problem at once)
[09:59] <neozen> lol
[09:59] <morrolan> maybe that's the problem Flannel?
[09:59] <JebJoya> hey, having wireless card issues on a fresh ubuntu install, Device Manager lists "88w8335 [Libertas]  802.11b/g Wireless", but is not listed in Networking - any suggestions?
[09:59] <dougie> nevermind: yeah the camera works through usb just fine torkinghe card reader is built into my laptop thats what i'm trying to get w
[09:59] <disasm> xtknight: haha, it works, they just split the python package up into two parts!
[09:59] <Chai_Sangeen> nevermind, my file browser keep freezing when trying to access smb shares or usb drives why is that do u have the same prob?
[09:59] <dougie> nevermind: yeah the camera works through usb just fine the card reader is built into my laptop thats what i'm trying to get working
[09:59] <xtknight> disasm: bit confused but if it works that's all that matters :P
[09:59] <nevermind> dougie: try to disable some stuff in bios that you dont need right now, might help too
[09:59] <Flannel> morrolan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#head-b61e938a59a33a4e3a56552fa81a5ae0eec86651 should get you up and running
[09:59] <nevermind> dougie: in case its a conflict
[10:00] <disasm> xtknight: thanks for your help, without your question of what version was on debian, I would have never realized the additional package ;-)
[10:00] <neozen> mtrcn: what's the exact model of camera
[10:00] <xtknight> disasm: call me socrates :P
[10:00] <neozen> mtrcn: not what shows up in lsusb...
[10:00] <neozen> mtrcn: but the one that the company addresses it as
[10:00] <xtknight> disasm: wait a minute though, was it -ext or python-numeric itself which contained what you needed?
[10:00] <disasm> xtknight: now I can make a lot of angry astronomers happy again ;-) We upgraded a bunch of machines in the department and it broke pyraf ;-)
[10:01] <morrolan> Flannel thanks, i'll look at that right now :)
[10:01] <mtrcn> neozen: it is built-in cam on my asus desktop
[10:01] <Coldopm> Anyone have an idea of what is the best Peer to Peer file sharing program for mp3's? My gnutella stopped loading for some reason....
[10:01] <disasm> xtknight: python-numeric was already installed, it was python-numeric-ext that added the LinearAlgebra stuff
[10:01] <xtknight> disasm: ahh ext cnotains   * Linear Algebra (LAPACK)
[10:01] <mtrcn> neozen: sorry... laptop
[10:01] <neozen> mtrcn: generally... if you don't find something on video4linux 's site for your cam.... it MIGHT be supported on linux..... but it WILL be difficult to set up
[10:01] <dougie> is there a way to clear dmesg so i can see whats new? lol
[10:01] <disasm> xtknight: yup
[10:01] <neozen> mtrcn: if indeed it can be set up at all
[10:01] <neozen> mtrcn: this... is why you research before you buy
[10:01] <neozen> mtrcn: sorry
[10:02] <disasm> xtknight: well time to mass install python-numeric-ext, and it to my install script ;-)
[10:02] <lenaud01> I do sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin says its installed where is it?
[10:02] <dxdemetriou> how can I configure a modem? I tried 3 types and doesn't work
[10:02] <neozen> mtrcn: look in the documentation on that driver site I mentioned
[10:02] <ferronica> any one here help me regarding  mobile phone???
[10:02] <neozen> mtrcn: perhaps it will work for you
[10:02] <Coldopm> Anyone have an opinion of the best p2p file sharing program??
[10:02] <xtknight> lenaud01: `dpkg -L phpmyadmin`  to see a list of installed files.  that will guide you in the right direction
[10:02] <dougie> nevermind: can you clear dmesg so that i can see what messages are new?
[10:02] <neozen> mtrcn: that's all I can recommend
[10:02] <kingcobra> Coldopm, what network u talkn bout
[10:02] <neozen> Coldopm: them's fighting words
[10:02] <dyrne> ferronica: what was the question?
[10:02] <neozen> Coldopm: lol
[10:03] <lenaud01> thanks xtknight
[10:03] <neozen> Coldopm: matter of preference
[10:03] <mjr> Coldopm, I'd have to say gnunet, but of course there's not much peers there
[10:03] <cyris> Does Ubuntu have something similar to fedoras /etc/pam.d/system-auth ?????
[10:03] <mtrcn> neozen: thanks for your interest

[10:04] <d1gital> /nich ubotu
[10:04] <dyrne> ferronica: well when you attache the phone and do dmesg | tail  does it mention a node like sda or sdb?
[10:04] <Coldopm> maybe I will try to reinstall it and see what happens, pretty sure it searched them all, bearshare, limewire etc
[10:04] <xtknight> kingcobra: bcm43xx although you may need to rip firmware from a windows driver
[10:04] <kingcobra> Coldopm, i suppose things are different in linux but hav ya checked slyck
[10:04] <d1gital> darn lol
[10:04] <d1gital> no one saw that o.O
[10:04] <xtknight> kingcobra: i dont know about the bcm4318 specifically
[10:04] <neozen> kingcobra: the native driver is iffy
[10:05] <xtknight> native driver worked for my bcm43xx
[10:05] <Sayers> is there a program that can make a chart of my computers performance?
[10:05] <xtknight> worked great
[10:05] <neozen> xtknight: nice
[10:05] <kingcobra> neoncode, what is wrong with it
[10:05] <xtknight> Sayers: what kind of performance?  just everything like HD/mem/cpu?
[10:05] <wastrel> "hello"
[10:05] <mtrcn> neozen: I dont know, only Syntek is writed by Asus
[10:05] <kingcobra> neozen, what is wrong with it
[10:05] <Sayers> xtknight Yes problem is for some reason acpi doesnt work to well
[10:05] <neozen> kingcobra: the only way i've seen it work is via ndiswrapper
[10:05] <xtknight> Sayers: `glxgears -printfps` to test GL.  `sudo hdparm -Tt /dev/sdx` to test a HD (unbuffered/buffered)
[10:06] <wastrel> glxinfo | grep render to test GL
[10:06] <neozen> xtknight: did you have to recompile your kernel?
[10:06] <Coldopm> OK so I removed GTK-Gnutella then reinstalled it and it will not load for me, anyone have any ideas?
[10:06] <xtknight> Sayers: bogomips is listed in the device /proc/cpuinfo , should be a reasonable indication of CPU
[10:06] <drewzf> Could anyone address my lack of gdmlogin with vnc4server please?
[10:06] <Sayers> xtknight you wouldn't know how to fix my ACPI problem would you?
[10:06] <disasm> xtknight: if you're up for another question, any suggestions for using cpan to mass install to perl modules to 50 machines?
[10:06] <xtknight> neozen: nope
[10:06] <disasm> Sayers: whats your acpi problem?
[10:06] <neozen> xtknight: apparently the revision number of the hardware also has something to do with whether the native driver works properly
[10:06] <xtknight> neozen: not that i remember....
[10:06] <kingcobra> neozen, do you know what is wrong with the native linux driver
[10:06] <xtknight> neozen: i may have used a new kernel that included bcm43xx but i dont remember having to apply any fixes
[10:07] <xtknight> neozen: this was suse i think anyway
[10:07] <neozen> xtknight: kingcobra: on rev 02, it didn't seem to be happy
[10:07] <xtknight> Sayers: i might.  what acpi problem?
[10:07] <d1gital> if i'm on a WEP secured network and im the only one with the password.. is it safe to share / or is it still shared to "the world"
[10:07] <dyrne> drewzf: is there a reason you dont want to just run gnome-session or whatever? you need gdm?
[10:07] <xtknight> disasm: cpan?  dotn know never heard of it.  what about a debian repo?
[10:07] <Sayers> xtknight : Well the fan runs at full throttle which on windows was usually quiet .  Also when I turn the computer off I still have to turn it off, and hibernate doesn't do what it's supposed to
[10:07] <Renu23> i can not burn at 1x
[10:07] <Renu23> why?
[10:07] <neozen> kingcobra: stick your output of lspci in the pastebin
[10:07] <drewzf> dyrne: No. I just need a GUI for VNC
[10:07] <ferronica> dyrne: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12217/
[10:07] <chrisbk> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6mlXIi-4fc
[10:07] <neozen> kingcobra: and paste the link
[10:07] <drewzf> dyrne: I should replace gdmlogin with gnome-session?
[10:08] <dxdemetriou> when I put an internal modem on my pc must I do something else before the gnome-ppp?
[10:08] <kingcobra> neozen, broadcom dont provide a lin driver do they, its made by community is it
[10:08] <drewzf> I'm trying to connect from WinXP to Ubuntu Edgy Eft
[10:08] <xtknight> Sayers: use userspace governor for your CPU (instead of the default 'performance governor').  it might require a recompile though those are the keywords you should be looking for
[10:08] <cX-kads> Hi there I am having problems with xchat and irc
[10:08] <Renu23> can anybody tell me how to burn an iso at 1x?
[10:08] <xtknight> Sayers: what CPU exactly?  intel core duo?  intel core 2 duo?  intel pentium D?  amd athlon 64?
[10:08] <Menasim1> how can I get packages from debian?
[10:08] <maddog39> cX: what problem are you having with IRC?
[10:08] <ferronica> dyrne: have you checked???
[10:09] <Sayers> xtknight Good ole pentium 4 single core processer, nothing special
[10:09] <neozen> kingcobra: yes... the driver has been reverse-engineered by the community.... for some cards in this series its been known to work... for others, it doesn't
[10:09] <xtknight> Menasim1: sudo apt-get install <pkgname>  will get them from the Ubuntu repositories (debian-based)
[10:09] <mjr> Menasim1, you don't, but pretty much all of them are in the universe repo if not main
[10:09] <xtknight> Sayers: oh, full PC or laptop?
[10:09] <Renu23> i don t have system tools in applications menu why?
[10:09] <quaal> how do i set the default browser in ubuntu?
[10:09] <dyrne> drewzf: well when editing the ~/.vnc/xstartup file gnome-session would work i think but for example i have just startxfce4& or sometimes startfluxbox&   do this run vnc then at the x window try running gnome-session or maybe there is a startgnome though im not sure of that
[10:09] <xMorgawr> guys... i have a serious problem.. i accidentally removed dpkg from /usr/bin (i did sudo rm /usr/bin, don't ask me why).. how in heaven's name can i get it back? if i dont' have it i can't install packages >.<
[10:09] <neozen> kingcobra: I've got a solution for getting the card to work using ndiswrapper
[10:09] <neozen> kingcobra: if you're interested
[10:09] <Sayers> xtknight: Full
[10:10] <Renu23> hello
[10:10] <xtknight> xMorgawr: sudo apt-get install dpkg  ?
[10:10] <drewzf> dyrne: I don't get a terminal
[10:10] <NickGarvey> xMorgawr, I um.. wow
[10:10] <drewzf> When I log in to VNC
[10:10] <cX-kads> Renu23 u can edit ur menu by going to System > Preferences > Menu Layout
[10:10] <dyrne> drewzf: gnome-session and gnome-pangel would work id think
[10:10] <xMorgawr> it says it can't exec dpkg.. you NEED dpkg to install packages
[10:10] <xtknight> not sure if apt-get uses dpkg directly
[10:10] <neozen> kingcobra: should make the card supported by network-manager-gnome and allow you windows-style point&click wireless networking
[10:10] <wastrel> xMorgawr:  boot from rescue disk and cp ?
[10:10] <wastrel> ro just mount rescue disk and cp i guess...
[10:10] <dyrne> drewzf: remove the gdm and put like twm& or something
[10:10] <xtknight> ah k well i guess that's your answer
[10:10] <NickGarvey> no you need dpkg I'm pretty sure
[10:10] <xtknight> xMorgawr:  what architecture?
[10:10] <xtknight> edgy/i386.. ?
[10:10] <dyrne> drewzf: then vnc4server -kill :port
[10:10] <xMorgawr> i have ubuntu 6.10.. i'm quite a noob with it >.<
[10:10] <dyrne> drewzf: and rerun
[10:11] <Silencer> I am having problem with liveupdate
[10:11] <wastrel> if it's just hte binary from /usr/bin you can just cp it from another source
[10:11] <cX-kads> Renu23 also you maynot see any system tools under applications becuase u have no system applications installed
[10:11] <Silencer> Software index is broken
[10:11] <Silencer> how to fix this ?
[10:11] <xMorgawr> wastrel, i tried to cp a dpkg file a friend sent me from xchat, it didnt' recognize it
[10:11] <cX-kads> Silencer
[10:11] <xtknight> xMorgawr: i386?
[10:11] <xMorgawr> xtknight yes
[10:11] <Sayers> xtknight: No ACPI support in kernel, or incorrect acpi_path ("/proc/acpi"). [[[[ Occurs when I type acpi w/ sudo or w.o/ it ] ] ] ] 
[10:11] <xtknight> xMorgawr: do you have wget installed
[10:11] <Budtske> Silencer: sude apt-get update
[10:11] <neozen> kingcobra: do you want to try the ndis solution or not?
[10:11] <cX-kads> Silencer sudo apt-get install -f try that
[10:11] <xMorgawr> xtknight i don't know what wget is..
[10:11] <dyrne> ferronica: looks like sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt  would mount it maybe
[10:11] <neozen> kingcobra: just give me a place to send it
[10:11] <xtknight> xMorgawr: type it and see if it's a valid command
[10:11] <wastrel> xMorgawr:  did you get the permissions set up right? was the dpkg from the same distro/release version?
[10:11] <cX-kads> Silencer are u having problems with automatix2 ?
[10:12] <cX-kads> Hi there I am having problems with xchat and irc
[10:12] <arashf> quit
[10:12] <xMorgawr> xtknight it says wget: missing URL
[10:12] <dyrne> ferronica: im not that familiar with hal/udev and all that though for automount and such
[10:12] <xtknight> xMorgawr: i'll just upload the dpkg binary
[10:12] <xMorgawr> wasterel, i did set the permissions right, but i don't know about the distro

[10:12] <ubernewb> hey all anybody have any tips for cedega-ubuntu edgy and amd64
[10:12] <Kou> Hey.  Is anyone willing to assist me with creating an SSH server through aptitude with Ubuntu server?
[10:12] <mom> took 3 tries...
[10:12] <wastrel> xMorgawr:  what ubuntu are you on?
[10:12] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: state the problem and someone may give you the solution :)
[10:12] <ubernewb> Kou sure
[10:13] <Silencer> cX-kads, nah everything is fine now thx alot <3
[10:13] <xMorgawr> wastrel edgy
[10:13] <ferronica> dyrne: ok give me command i will paste it on terminal
[10:13] <cX-kads> Hi there I am having problems with xchat and ssl servers
[10:13] <neozen> kingcobra: thankee.. looking now
[10:13] <ubernewb> apt-get install openssh-server
[10:13] <wastrel> xMorgawr:  what platform?  x86?
[10:13] <xMorgawr> wastrel yes
[10:13] <kingcobra> neozen, yeah i suppose ill try the ndiswrapper method
[10:13] <cX-kads> uberneb is that for me
[10:13] <neozen> kingcobra: yeah... you've got revision 2
[10:13] <neozen> kingcobra: alrighty....
[10:13] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 thx again for coming to my rescue lol
[10:13] <neozen> kingcobra: let me just get you the link
[10:13] <kingcobra> neozen, can u pastebin it
[10:13] <xtknight> xMorgawr: type: "cd /usr/bin"  "sudo -H -s"
[10:13] <Kou> ubernoob: I'm in aptitude right now and I think that i installed the server off the cd but in the list of installed packages openssh-server comes up in purple text.
[10:14] <cX-kads> ubernewb is that for me <cX-kads> uberneb is that for me
[10:14] <dyrne> ferronica: something like: 'sudo mkdir /media/nokia; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/nokia'
[10:14] <xMorgawr> xtknight yes , now?
[10:14] <xtknight> xMorgawr: now, "wget -c http://xtknight.atothosting.com/bin/dpkg ; wget -c http://xtknight.atothosting.com/bin/dpkg-deb ; wget -c http://xtknight.atothosting.com/bin/dpkg-query ; wget -c http://xtknight.atothosting.com/bin/dpkg-split "
[10:14] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: joining the secure server via xchat .. is that what you're looking for?
[10:14] <neozen> kingcobra: its a tar.gz you just need to unzip and install using a shell script
[10:14] <Sayers> xtknight: I think this is what I am going to want to run when my APT running at the moment is finished : sudo apt-get install acpi acpid acpi-support
[10:14] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 I can connect to ssl irc servers via +9999 ports but it keeps disconnecting
[10:14] <Kou> ubernoob: with "idA" instead of "i" next to it.
[10:14] <xtknight> Sayers: sorry not really sure bout the ACPI problem
[10:14] <mrpoundsign> anyone running apache2+php5 on Fiesty experience that the session system doesn't seem to be working?  (I also asked in ubuntu+1, but didn't get a response)
[10:15] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 after a while and then reconnects
[10:15] <Sayers> xtknight: Does it work for you?
[10:15] <chrisjs169> i just got sound working in Feisty, but the volume control from my keyboard/icon at the top doesn't work
[10:15] <xtknight> Sayers: acpi returns nothing for me, so i guess it works
[10:15] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 also the data flow freezes every 2 mins
[10:15] <Sayers> :S
[10:15] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: it could be the configuration or the server acts funny today
[10:15] <ferronica> dyrne: mount: /dev/sda1 already mounted or /media/nokia busy
[10:15] <ferronica> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is mounted on /mnt
[10:15] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 the server is fine as everyone else on it can join it fine
[10:16] <dyrne> ferronica: ah well youve mounted it already you should be able to navagate to /mnt and see the contents of your phone
[10:16] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 only I have a problem
[10:16] <ferronica> dyrne: where
[10:16] <xMorgawr> xtknight, i wrote that and now i have a command line like this >
[10:16] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 I also recompiled the xchat 2.8 from scratch
[10:16] <xMorgawr> and did nothing
[10:16] <neozen> kingcobra: http://neozen.no-ip.info/.neozen/bcm4318-nm.tar.gz
[10:16] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: but same problem
[10:16] <xtknight> xMorgawr: dont put in the double quotes
[10:16] <xtknight> xMorgawr: pres control C to get out of the >>
[10:16] <xMorgawr> xtknight oh nvm, i had to re-write it
[10:16] <jhutchins> Anybody know what causes the apt tools to fail to update and say "file is not in gzip format"?
[10:16] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: maybe the router + firewall causes the data loss for a few sec?
[10:16] <dyrne> ferronica: with your file manager or just 'cd /mnt' then 'ls' to list the contents of the directory
[10:16] <Sayers> xtknight: If it doesn't work should I worry?
[10:16] <xtknight> Sayers: not sure
[10:17] <neozen> kingcobra: untar and ungzip
[10:17] <kingcobra> neozen, ok giv us a min
[10:17] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: maybe but I can't test it because I don't know any other ssl servers out there to test on
[10:17] <xMorgawr> xtknight mm.. it might be working, i'm trying apt-get update to see if it works
[10:17] <xtknight> xMorgawr: after the downloads are done, (without the quotes): " chmod 755 dpkg* "
[10:17] <liquiddoom> I connected to an SMB share and tried to play music off it, but only totem will play it. smbmount gives "access denied". Do I need to change the server's smb.conf?
[10:17] <xMorgawr> xtknight oh lol ok hang on
[10:17] <neozen> kingcobra: then run "sudo ./ndiswrapper_setup"
[10:17] <xMorgawr> xtknight ok, now?
[10:17] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: try normal one and see how it goes ... then work from there (change back to secure one)
[10:18] <neozen> kingcobra: after that "sudo aptitude install network-manager-gnome"
[10:18] <dyrne> ferronica: or just do this 'ln -s /mnt /home/$USER/Desktop/phone' though the shortcut it creates will only work if the phone has been mounted there as you just did
[10:18] <neozen> kingcobra: and reboot
[10:18] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: the normal one works fine
[10:18] <xtknight> xMorgawr: now , 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get --reinstall install dpkg'
[10:18] <mbd1> i was updating ubuntu and my gnome panel now isnt responsive...and the update is in another workspace... what cammand can i use to restart the panel but not the computer
[10:18] <kingcobra> neozen, great thanx
[10:18] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: 65 hrs and no glithes
[10:18] <neozen> kingcobra: np
[10:18] <neozen> kingcobra: good luck
[10:18] <Sayers> xtknight: It runs at 90 F and I have been using Ubuntu for ever ;S
[10:18] <xMorgawr> xtknight ok i'll try thanks
[10:18] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: at least it's the server side with secure ports then
[10:19] <Renu23> i can not set the burn of my writer at 4x why?
[10:19] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: can u find out what's other ssl server from ops?
[10:19] <kingcobra> neozen, ill try all that n come back after, thanx again
[10:19] <xMorgawr> xtknight it doesn't work.. it says the same thing, can't find dpkg
[10:19] <neozen> Renu23: it might not support that speed
[10:19] <mbd1> HELP i was updating ubuntu and my gnome panel now isnt responsive...and the update is in another workspace... what cammand can i use to restart the panel but not the computer
[10:19] <ferronica> dyrne: error when i cliked over that icon
[10:19] <xtknight> xMorgawr: alright, type this:  'which dpkg'
[10:19] <neozen> kingcobra: glad to be of help
[10:19] <xMorgawr> xtknight it says this "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[10:19] <xMorgawr> "
[10:19] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: I can try,
[10:19] <Renu23> it support 16x but is starting from 6,1x
[10:19] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: is there anything else I can do?
[10:19] <gergr> hi
[10:19] <mooseman447> hey
[10:20] <xMorgawr> xtknight i did which dpkg and did nothing...
[10:20] <ferronica> dyrne: You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "phone".
[10:20] <xtknight> xMorgawr: do you have Synaptic open?  if so, close it.
[10:20] <xtknight> xMorgawr: restart your terminal for it to recognize dpkg
[10:20] <mooseman447> hey can i ask a question about ubuntu and raid 0?
[10:20] <xtknight> mooseman447: yeah
[10:20] <Renu23> how can i fix my writer at 4x?
[10:20] <dyrne> ferronica: 'sudo chmod 755 /mnt'  this is really messy the way were doing this btw :)
[10:20] <neozen> dyrne: ewwww
[10:20] <neozen> dyrne: lol
[10:20] <xMorgawr> xtknight ok, i closed synaptic and restarted terminal, now i retry apt-get --reinstall install dpkg?
[10:21] <neozen> but... it'll work
[10:21] <xtknight> xMorgawr: try again
[10:21] <xtknight> xMorgawr: actually 'which dpkg' tell me what it says
[10:21] <mycroftiv> How do I prevent update-grub from being executed automatically on kernel updates etc? Im on feisty and i prefer to update my menu.lst manually.
[10:21] <mooseman447> i just got a new system with a nforce based motherboard supporting raid 0 for my 3 drives and i set it up in th bios but i just started the ubuntu installer and it found all the drives seperate
[10:21] <neozen> ferronica: tell me this is not a server
[10:21] <xtknight> how do i find the PID that is using a specified file?
[10:21] <xtknight> it was a more specific command than 'lsof'
[10:21] <mooseman447> (im using the text installer)
[10:21] <xMorgawr> xtknight mmm... it says this E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[10:21] <mbd1> HELP does anyone know how to restart the gnome panel
[10:21] <neozen> ferronica: or a machine with an ssh server installed
[10:21] <ferronica> neozen: what???
[10:21] <xtknight> xMorgawr: alright do you have synaptic or update manager open?
[10:21] <xMorgawr> xtknight no wait.. wrong copy
[10:21] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: just keep watching for the culprit by take a look at log and ask around for another ssl server ... maybe check the configuration of xchat for ssl server (make sure it is correct again)
[10:21] <xMorgawr> xtknight sorry, it says this Could not exec dpkg!
[10:21] <ferronica> neozen: this is my own computer
[10:21] <Menasim1> how can I create a package?
[10:22] <dyrne> mbd1: pkill gnome-panel   it should just respawn if thone nohu gnome-panel&
[10:22] <xMorgawr> xtknight then it says the program returned an error and goes back to the command line
[10:22] <xtknight> xMorgawr: yet 'which dpkg' returns a proper path?
[10:22] <ferronica> dyrne: this my own computer
[10:22] <mooseman447> so should i leave the hardware raid enabled or use software raid?
[10:22] <mooseman447> would it matter if i left hardware and still used the software?
[10:22] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: which log should I look at?
[10:22] <xMorgawr> xtknight nope, it does nothing
[10:22] <xtknight> xMorgawr: what does this do?  'dpkg'
[10:22] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: is it in xchat?
[10:22] <xMorgawr> xtknight command not found

[10:24] <ppd> hi. does anyone have the epiphany super tab extra extension and could send it to me?
[10:24] <disasm> xMorgawr: did this just start happening?
[10:24] <LjL> !packaging > Menasim1    (Menasim1, see the private message from Ubotu)
[10:24] <xtknight> xMorgawr: well did the wget succeed?  try this again.  "cd /usr/bin/" then "sudo -H -s" then "wget -c http://xtknight.atothosting.com/bin/dpkg" and tell me exactly what wget says when it's done
[10:24] <adaptr> LjL: yes, but that's freenode - most well-behaved bots do this per-channel, too
[10:24] <neozen> LjL: thankee
[10:24] <wastrel> disasm:  it started happening after he rm'd /usr/bin
[10:24] <cringous> Hello all. I've bought an ASUS M2N-E motherboard and 2 SATA Samsung 250GB, configured as RAID mirror in setup. Can I install Ubuntu with this configuration ?
[10:24] <ferronica> dyrne:  this is my mobile not a hdd
[10:24] <xMorgawr> disasm> i accidentally deleted dpkg in /usr/bin with rm... i screwed it damn
[10:24] <disasm> wastrel: yikes!
[10:24] <genii> Menasim1: man makedeb
[10:25] <dyrne> ferronica: same thing. the partition is sda1
[10:25] <wastrel> given that wget is in /usr/bin...
[10:25] <LjL> adaptr: well, we don't have that.
[10:25] <adaptr> cringous: I have that board, it should fly.. dual core on it ?
[10:25] <xMorgawr> xtknight yes that wget succeeded, i try that now
[10:25] <xtknight> wastrel: well he has wget
[10:25] <decomas> exit
[10:25] <ferronica> dyrne: but when i trying to open it same error window open
[10:25] <wastrel> so it would appear
[10:25] <xtknight> xMorgawr: so the wget says it downloaded dpkg?  now what happens if you type '  ./dpkg ' ?
[10:25] <mooseman447> can anybody help me/
[10:25] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: ok thx
[10:26] <nippoo> Hm. I just installed Ubuntu 6.10 on my computer. It has a Promise FastTrak RAID controller, which stripes two drives together to make one big one. On Windows this is properly recognized, but on Linux it still recognizes it as two drives. No big deal, I thought, and deleted the array before installing Ubuntu.
[10:26] <adaptr> mooseman447: not as is, no - you';d have to sort of ask a question first
[10:26] <neozen> !ask >mooseman447
[10:26] <disasm> xMorgawr: well, if you get dpkg/apt installed you may be able to apt-get --reinstall install ".*"
[10:26] <ferronica> dyrne: The folder contents could not be displayed.You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "phone".
[10:26] <shatrat> nippoo, sounds like a fakeraid
[10:26] <cringous> adaptr: I have an Atlhon 64 3500 on it. But just Windows running :-(
[10:26] <xMorgawr> xtknight wait.. i re-did that and it said after a download "dpkg saved"
[10:26] <nippoo> Yup, I know.
[10:26] <mooseman447> oh i didnt know there was a command to ask....
[10:26] <xtknight> xMorgawr: alright,.  now what does ' ./dpkg ' say
[10:26] <ferronica> dyrne: may be i need full permission
[10:26] <neozen> !fakeraid
[10:26] <nippoo> So I got it as two drives (still plugged into the RAID controler, just no array) and it installed fine.
[10:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fakeraid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:26] <xMorgawr> xtknight permission denied (i'm in root wtf)
[10:26] <nippoo> However, it won't boot - it doesn't detect that the HDDs are there
[10:26] <xtknight> xMorgawr: chmod 755 ./dpkg
[10:26] <disasm> xMorgawr: check with someone else before doing that though, I'm not sure if that will expand packages dpkg -l has or every package
[10:26] <adaptr> cringous: that's too bad - I gots me an X2 2GHz low-power, and it runs cooler than my single-core 2GHz :)
[10:26] <Sayers> xtknight: Is this a common problem I am having
[10:27] <nippoo> (in the BIOS, it says "not installed").
[10:27] <xtknight> xMorgawr: now ./dpkg again, and report the results
[10:27] <nippoo> I plugged them in to the onboard SATA, but it still doesn't recognize they're there.
[10:27] <dyrne> ferronica: just 'gksu nautilus&' and navigate to the /media/phone or whatever the directory is
[10:27] <xtknight> Sayers: i dont know.  i haven't heard much about acpi problems, personally
[10:27] <xtknight> Sayers: have you tried googling it?
[10:27] <nippoo> Anyone know how I might get my HDDs enabled?
[10:27] <Sayers> xtknight: Yes
[10:27] <xMorgawr> xtknight mm... seems that it recognized it (at least it exec it), it printed some lines about how to use dpkg and how i was missing parameters
[10:27] <xtknight> xMorgawr: now what does 'which dpkg' say?
[10:27] <nippoo> er, recognized by the BIOS?
[10:27] <Budtske> nippoo: have you mounted them ?
[10:27] <nhy> how do I reset /etc/apt/sources.list to the default?
[10:27] <Sayers> xtknight: No ACPI support in kernel, or incorrect acpi_path ("/proc/acpi").
[10:27] <shatrat> nippoo, try different connectors?
[10:27] <cringous> Coll. But my problem is about installing Ubuntu on it. It is possible ? With RAID configured ?
[10:27] <nippoo> it's a Dimension 8000
[10:27] <disasm> xMorgawr: if it does every package, I have a script somewhere that parses dpkg -l output for all package names marked ii
[10:27] <Sayers> xtknight: It
[10:27] <xMorgawr> xtknight yay! it says /usr/bin/dpkg
[10:28] <Sayers> xtknight: It's the path*
[10:28] <xtknight> xMorgawr: try 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install dpkg' now
[10:28] <adaptr> nippoo: you need a) the fastrak driver loaded, qand b) to make a software raid under Linux - the hardware stuff isn't really worth it, unless it is true hardware raid
[10:28] <theacolyte> someone remind me the name of the CLI version package manager?
[10:28] <xtknight> theacolyte: aptitude
[10:28] <adaptr> !aptitude
[10:28] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[10:28] <cringous> adaptr, But my problem is about installing Ubuntu on it. It is possible ? With RAID configured ?
[10:28] <nippoo> Where would I get the FastTrak drivers from?
[10:28] <Sayers> !acpi
[10:28] <disasm> xtknight: isn't apt-get in /usr/bin?
[10:28] <adaptr> cringous: what kind of raid ?
[10:28] <ubotu> acpi: displays information on ACPI devices. In component main, is optional. Version 0.09-1 (edgy), package size 10 kB, installed size 72 kB (Only available for i386 ia64 amd64)
[10:28] <xMorgawr> xtknight doing it thanks | disasm> i might have fixed it (let's hope)
[10:28] <dyrne> ferronica: its just like a usb HD.  basically when i mount one i do: 1)plug the sucker in 2) 'dmesg|tail' depending if sda or sdb or whatever shows 3)sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb
[10:28] <xtknight> disasm: yes, but he seems to have it.  he must not have deleted everything in bin
[10:28] <nhy> how can I reset apt's sources?

[10:29] <nippoo> (I've tried creating software RAID. However, it doesn't boot, because the BIOS sees it as one big drive, so GRUB doesn't load. If I disable RAID, the BIOS doesn't see it at all. That's my problem!)
[10:29] <disasm> xtknight: ah, a good ctrl-c after realizing what he did ;-)
[10:29] <shatrat> nippoo, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto  I havent done it myself but Ive seen other people get it going using this guide

[10:30] <xMorgawr> xtknight i think it's working.. it's reinstalling it thanks a lot man ;) seriously, i'd have been screwed without you lol (i was already thinking of reinstalling the whole os)
[10:30] <linxeh> adaptr: I'm not installing that junk
[10:30] <nhy> ubotu, thanks. this should be more known

[10:30] <christian> hy guys
[10:30] <xtknight> xMorgawr: ehh fixing things is how you learn
[10:30] <xtknight> xMorgawr: so did dpkg get reinstalled properly via apt-get?
[10:30] <adaptr> not fixing things is how you learn even more
[10:30] <linxeh> adaptr: well I have windows too ;-)

[10:31] <neozen> deleted the c runtime?

[10:31] <neozen> lol
[10:31] <xMorgawr> xtknight yeah.... lol,i just wanted to move (mv) but i wasn't thinking and i typed rm... >_>
[10:32] <cringous> adaptr, That's bad, really not happen. With only one SATA disk the livecd don't recognize too, but it can be done.
[10:32] <xtknight> xMorgawr: ehh mv usr bin?  shouldnt be doing that either :P
[10:32] <neozen> xMorgawr: this... is why I have a bash alias for rm
[10:32] <xMorgawr> xtknight no no, just moving dpkg...
[10:32] <adaptr> cringous: well, what kind of controller are the disks on ?
[10:32] <xtknight> xMorgawr: ohh
[10:32] <xtknight>  you shouldnt do any massive/sweeping operations on any of your system directories
[10:32] <neozen> xMorgawr: why mv dpkg?
[10:32] <ferronica> dyrne: now how to open it????

[10:33] <Renu23> can anybody help me to fix the burn of an image at 4x?
[10:33] <xtknight> fabiano: repositories^^
[10:33] <xMorgawr> neozen, yeah... that was close, almost screwed my new ubuntu.. lol
[10:33] <cringous> adaptr, Let me see exactly...
[10:33] <lenaud01> I do sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin find that phpmyadmin installs to /usr/share/phpmyadmin my apache server is on /var/www how do I run phpmyadmin in webbrowser?
[10:34] <Silencer> I am now having problem with ubuntu package manager that give me 3 updates and they don't exist on ubuntu servers
[10:34] <Silencer> example
[10:34] <neozen> xMorgawr: in linux... there are things you experiment with.... and things you CAN experiment with... but that are NOT a good idea to poke at if you don't know what you're doing and mind doing a reinstall

[10:34] <stickman> anyone here run ubuntu on an imac?
[10:34] <xtknight> lenaud01: phpadmin is something you install on your server.  you run an install script like install.php then access phpmyadmin via a GET request on you server like http://mysite.com/phpadmin/
[10:34] <ferronica> j
[10:34] <cringous> adaptr, It's a shame can't running Linux on my machine, just Windows... Wait a minute, I'm looking for the specifications
[10:34] <disasm> xMorgawr: well learning the hard way is the best way to learn... I once removed libc and broke ls ;-) I fixed it of course, but I'll never do that again (note to self, don't operate as root in the morning without coffee, you will regret it)
[10:34] <neozen> xMorgawr: I borked mine my first week when I changed the hostname in /etc/hostname but didn't change it in /etc/hosts
[10:34] <mycroes> can anyone tell me how to enable glx support for an intel graphics card?
[10:34] <xMorgawr> neozen yeah, but usually a rename doesn't ruin something, i just didn't expect it being deleted totally lol
[10:34] <adaptr> _Mr_Denix_: your explanation is anything but short.. more like snippy ;-) it's like this: on the basis of what you write *here*, I will either look at it, or think about it, or both - or none... if you don't support your own case HERE, then nobody will care
[10:35] <dougie> i don't think my camera is useing usb 2.0 in linux...its going really slow
[10:35] <neozen> xMorgawr: nothing could find itself... so the whole thing went kaboom
[10:35] <xMorgawr> lol
[10:35] <Sayers> xtknight: I am going to switch to APM
[10:35] <disasm> neozen: that just broke it remotely, right?
[10:35] <DaveyJ> i'm an idiot :(
[10:35] <adaptr> DaveyJ: no argument
[10:35] <xtknight> Sayers: isn't that side-by-side with acpi?  or is it something different
[10:35] <Renu23> i can not burn at 4x pls help
[10:35] <DaveyJ> :)
[10:35] <neozen> disasm: no... that broke running it locally too
[10:35] <DaveyJ> i just reinstalled ubuntu and now i forgot how to get my resolution back to (whatever)x900

[10:35] <xMorgawr> ok guys, i'm going now, thanks to everyone that helped me (Expecially xtknight) ;) bye
[10:35] <disasm> neozen: how, I've done that a zillion times?
[10:35] <xMorgawr> and goodnight
[10:36] <xtknight> good afternoon :P
[10:36] <neozen> disasm: you probably don't run xubuntu dapper
[10:36] <disasm> yeah, afternoon ;-)
[10:36] <Sayers> xtknight: It's older but has pretty much the same features, just a different approach. Both are good for saving power, ACPI does it differently and a bit more effective in some cases.
[10:36] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: hi there I keep getting this in my xchat raw log  PING LAG3342580158
[10:36] <neozen> xMorgawr: farewell
[10:36] <disasm> neozen: dapper doesn't connect to localhost for X, that's scary...
[10:36] <cringous> adaptr, As far I know, the controller is the NVIDIA nForce 570
[10:36] <xtknight> cX-kads: that's a normal message that the IRC Client uses to keep the connection alive with the IRC server.  it is by specification
[10:37] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: ok
[10:37] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, the first two errors I get as well. that's "normal" :) however there seem to be a problem with the config file. does it exist?
[10:37] <neozen> cX-kads: servers ping you every once in awhile to make sure you're still there
[10:37] <adaptr> cringous: yes, that's what I have, too - surprise!
[10:37] <neozen> !ping
[10:37] <adaptr> cringous: don't. use. on-board. crap.
[10:37] <ubotu> pong
[10:37] <neozen> lol
[10:37] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: but that is usually when I lose my ssl connection
[10:37] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: it's the server side - it makes sure you're alive or ghost on their network
[10:37] <xtknight> cringous: what are you having trouble running with the nforce570
[10:37] <magfra6> moin moin
[10:37] <Renu23> is anybody burning here iso data?
[10:37] <xipietotec> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370 I tried following this guide....and only succeeded in making both computers have no internet connection, fixed that by disabling ipmasque.... as of right now I cannot figure out how to share my connection with another ubuntu machine. firestarter is broken (Because of a bug...which has not been fixed for quite some time), and iptables is a *MAZE* to figure out
[10:38] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi of course it does. i have modified only one line groups nobody  to groups users would you like me to paste it for you ?
[10:38] <cringous> xtknight, I configured RAID in 2 SATA disks, but can't install Ubuntu.
[10:38] <alekz> how can i run the wireless assistant ?
[10:38] <fabiano> is the amsn the best for msn?
[10:38] <Renu23> can anybody help me to fix at 4x a burn?
[10:38] <neozen> alekz: lol.... wireless assistant?
[10:38] <cX-kads> fanbiano: use gaim
[10:38] <hypn0> Renu23: in nautilus, can't you right click on iso and wirte to cd
[10:38] <cringous> xtknight, RAID mirroring
[10:38] <xtknight> cringous: ahh raid is tricky with onboard.  there is linux software raid available which generally exceeds pseudo-HW raid such as the nforce5 in performance.  it's also more scalable
[10:38] <neozen> alekz: I think... you need windows
[10:38] <alekz> yes neoncode
[10:38] <disasm> fabiano: I prefer bitlbee, but I prefer IM in my irc client, gaim works great too
[10:38] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, it say that it can not determine the IP or "mrdenix". yes pastebin it please
[10:39] <fabiano> why?
[10:39] <alekz> no neozen there's one for ubuntu i've read in the forums
[10:39] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: i don't remember if there is a specific set in xchat to stop the ping from the server
[10:39] <hypn0> oh, it was 1x before, so burning works then Renu23 :-)
[10:39] <Renu23> yes i can but i can not to burn at 4x because is starting from 6x
[10:39] <neozen> alekz: for linux.... you are IN the wireless assistant
[10:39] <DaveyJ> there we go :) thanks
[10:39] <neozen> excuse me... for ubuntus you are in the wireless assistant
[10:39] <linxeh> hmm, gdesklets and superkaramba don't really behave like dashboard
[10:39] <xtknight> network-manager you mean perhaps, not wireless assistance
[10:39] <neozen> just ask your question
[10:40] <Renu23> any ideea/
[10:40] <cringous> xtknight, adaptr, So the best choice is installing Ubuntu in a disk and configure RAID by software through ubuntu, right ?
[10:40] <xtknight> cringous: unquestionably
[10:40] <pder> is it possible to install ubuntu on a personal computer system?
[10:40] <adaptr> cringous: erm.. no
[10:40] <xtknight> lol
[10:40] <hypn0> can't you select 4x Renu23?
[10:40] <xtknight> hows that for canceling out answers
[10:40] <xtknight> :P
[10:40] <adaptr> cringous: if you want to run ubuntu on a mirror then you have to install it on one
[10:40] <Renu23> i can t
[10:40] <mooseman447> does software raid 0 have any serious performace vs hardware?
[10:40] <neozen> alekz: if there is one for ubuntus ... its new to me
[10:40] <adaptr> mooseman447: depends on the controller
[10:40] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: it keeps saying  PING LAG3342580158 but i can clearly see it is froze
[10:40] <xipietotec> anyone have a guide to configuring connection sharing using route add?
[10:40] <alekz> neozen any idea of how update the firmware of my wireless card ?
[10:40] <adaptr> mooseman447: both of them, in fact :)
[10:40] <Silencer> how to reset apt-get update cache ?
[10:40] <hypn0> does your writer support 4x Renu23 :-/
[10:40] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi memory failure :( i forgot where the .conf file should be :))
[10:41] <Renu23> becauise i have 6x value
[10:41] <adaptr> xipietotec: there is no connection sharing using routing
[10:41] <xtknight> adaptr: AFAIK that's what he meant...use the partition manager to setup  software mirroring
[10:41] <neozen> alekz: network-manager-gnome makes connecting really easy though
[10:41] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, in the error it say where it is
[10:41] <neozen> alekz: ::sigh::
[10:41] <mooseman447> adapter its a nvidia sata controller and the cpu is a amd 5200+ x2
[10:41] <pder> does anyone know if ubuntu supports input devices?  i wish to use a keyboard to enter text into my computer system.
[10:41] <Renu23> yestarday i wrote at 4x
[10:41] <neozen> alekz: what model of card
[10:41] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi right thanks 2s
[10:41] <Renu23> but i dont know today why
[10:41] <alekz> neozen does not work for me
[10:41] <fabiano> there is no amsn in repositories
[10:41] <xtknight> !universe  | fabiano
[10:41] <ubotu> fabiano: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[10:41] <fabiano> where can i find?
[10:41] <neozen> alekz: state model of card.... or begone
[10:41] <alekz> neozen ITS A dwl-510
[10:42] <fabiano> or other program
[10:42] <xtknight> fabiano: you need to enable an extra repository, the instructions are above from Ubotu
[10:42] <neozen> alekz: most don't allow you to do that
[10:42] <cringous> adaptr, xtknight, thank you very much
[10:42] <c1ru> hi there
[10:42] <_Mr_Denix_> jowi http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12228/
[10:42] <kingcobra> neozen, problems installing http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12226
[10:42] <adaptr> mooseman447: *controller*, as in : disk controller
[10:42] <cringous> quit
[10:42] <Digit0> Hi
[10:42] <neozen> kingcobra: AWWW
[10:42] <c1ru> i have a problem, i just start in gnome, but if i press ctrl+alt+F8 i can see that error alot of lines
[10:42] <c1ru> mmcblk0: error 1 sending read/write command
[10:42] <neozen> kingcobra: drat ... sorry about that
[10:42] <theacolyte> !nsclient
[10:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nsclient - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:42] <kingcobra> neozen, i know its a pity
[10:42] <neozen> kingcobra: what is ifconfig /all telling you?
[10:43] <chrisjs169> i just got sound working in Feisty, but the volume control from my keyboard/icon at the top doesn't work
[10:43] <xtknight> ifconfig -a for linux 'ipconfig /all'
[10:43] <pder> i am interested in install ubuntu but i am unsure if ubuntu supports a monitor.  i want to be able to display text on a monitor.
[10:43] <mooseman447> adapter ok another question what is a good swap size with 2gigs of ram?
[10:43] <xtknight> mooseman447: probably 2 gigs
[10:43] <neozen> kingcobra: yeah.. i think I gotcha
[10:43] <neozen> kingcobra: cd into the directory first
[10:43] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: this is the error I get on dis connect  >> ERROR :Closing Link: cX-kads[CPE001310a1899c-CM001692fa7e8e.XXX.XXX.XXX.XXXXX.com]  (Ping timeout)
[10:43] <boarderwinterman> hello :D
[10:43] <xtknight> pder: yes, ubuntu does support a monitor.  it's a very new feature
[10:43] <Digit0> pder, only display text ?
[10:43] <neozen> kingcobra: then sudo ./ndiswrapper_setup
[10:43] <alekz> neozen so i cant update my firmware ?
[10:44] <xtknight> :P
[10:44] <boarderwinterman> i am writing from a new version of xubuntu feisty fawn beta and everything is perfect :D
[10:44] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: /set net_ping_timeout ... what did it show?
[10:44] <neozen> alekz: you might be able to... I'd punch the card model into the ubuntuforums
[10:44] <neozen> alekz: and see if anyone else has gotten the card working
[10:44] <alekz> 10x
[10:44] <adaptr> mooseman447: I have 256MB on this box
[10:45] <cX-kads> net_ping_timeout.............: 0
[10:45] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, what is the ip address of the computer?
[10:45] <neozen> kingcobra: you get that?
[10:45] <adaptr> mooseman447: you'll never use it - that's the whole point
[10:45] <kingcobra> neozen, ifconfig  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12231
[10:45] <AmazingRando> hey all, just a quick question
[10:45] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: ok. it should be okay. hmm.
[10:45] <adaptr> too late!
[10:45] <xtknight> i have 7 gigs swap but i run a lot of VMs
[10:45] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi 85.204.121.136
[10:45] <adaptr> _Mr_Denix_: thank-you :)
[10:45] <mooseman447> adapter yea i know and there is 750gigs of drives anyway so im good i just didnt know if a 4gig swap was overboard lol
[10:45] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, there is a different ip in your config.
[10:45] <adaptr> mooseman447: depends on what you do with it
[10:46] <_Mr_Denix_> adaptr what for  ?
[10:46] <neozen> kingcobra: I think your issue is that the ndiswrapper.deb file isn't in the directory you were running it in
[10:46] <xipietotec> how do I find out the ip address for my router? my computer's IP for the wireless card is listed as: 192.168.1.104, is the router addy then just 192.168.1.0?
[10:46] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi i've changed it . now i realised still the same
[10:46] <adaptr> _Mr_Denix_: giving out your public IP in a chat room...
[10:46] <mooseman447> adaptr i think 2 is fine its just a apache,mysql,mail server
[10:46] <AmazingRando> i've got a single core machine running feisty beta but i'm going to upgrade it to dual core.  will it automatically recognize the change and take advantage of both cores?
[10:46] <_Mr_Denix_> adaptr i thought
[10:46] <neozen> kingcobra: you need to get into the directory where you uncompressed that tar.gz
[10:46] <kingcobra> neozen, i just put in the whole address in the command
[10:46] <xtknight> xipietotec: type "route" and look under the gateway section.  any that start with 192. is probably your router
[10:46] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: are you using proxy?
[10:46] <neozen> kingcobra: don't do that
[10:46] <dyrne> xipietotec: nestat -rn  or route -n for the gateway
[10:46] <kingcobra> neozen, ok ill try it that way
[10:46] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, are you behind a router?
[10:46] <Enverex> adaptr, There's nothing wrong with giving out your IP, it's even displayed as you join the channel anyway
[10:46] <neozen> kingcobra: just go into the directory
[10:46] <neozen> kingcobra: cool
[10:46] <adaptr> AmazingRando: if feisty uses the same "generic" kernel scheme edgy uses, yes
[10:46] <_Mr_Denix_> adaptr i thought you guys are meant to help not to destroy
[10:46] <Renu23> can anybody knows how to fix the writer at 4x to burn
[10:47] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi no no router . lan card internet connection
[10:47] <adaptr> Enverex: that's not the point, really
[10:47] <neozen> kingcobra: you should be able to do all this from within the gui
[10:47] <xtknight> AmazingRando: very likely, ye.s
[10:47] <xtknight> yes*
[10:47] <neozen> kingcobra: in a terminal ... its not like it conflicts with X or anything
[10:47] <AmazingRando> adaptr, xtknight - thanks.  i'll give it a try
[10:47] <adaptr> _Mr_Denix_: there is no such entity as "you guys"
[10:47] <Enverex> adaptr, Yes it is, it's not like someone's suddenly going to get "h4x3d"
[10:47] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: it was ticked in the server prefs by default
[10:47] <AmazingRando> bye guys!
[10:47] <Renu23> can anybody knows how to fix the writer at 4x to burn
[10:47] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, can you start proftpd manually? "sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start"
[10:47] <cX-kads> Renu23: u can picke speed when burning with nautilus
[10:48] <_Mr_Denix_> adaptr useless chat mate
[10:48] <_Mr_Denix_> jowi trying now
[10:48] <Renu23> i can not
[10:48] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: can you un-tick it? and see how it goes?
[10:48] <Renu23> because i tried and nothing
[10:48] <adaptr> Enverex: there are 30K odd users on freenode.. imagine if one of them was asking for help with iptables, or some such, and he made it extra easy to start harassiing him... there is a point, sir, deny it all you like
[10:48] <cX-kads> kk
[10:48] <neozen> kingcobra: how's it working?
[10:48] <xipietotec> http://rafb.net/p/r3mUK050.html okay, so which one of these is the router?
[10:48] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: trying it nowkk
[10:48] <xtknight> i wonder why they dont just mask user's IPs by default with a hash like on other IRC nets
[10:49] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi " ProFTPd warning: cannot start neither in standalone nor in inetd/xinetd mode. Check your configuration.
[10:49] <_Mr_Denix_>  "
[10:49] <preaction> xipietotec: 192.168.1.1 is most likely your router
[10:49] <Agrajag> xipietotec: none of them, those are routes on your own computer, right?
[10:49] <Enverex> adaptr, Type "/whois someperson" and it'll tell you their IP. And having someones IP doesn't enable you to "harass" them anyway. It's not like in the movies.
[10:49] <xipietotec> Agrajag: ra0 connects to the wireless router
[10:49] <ulisse> 'lo tribe!
[10:49] <adaptr> Enverex: okay, I'm sure you know best
[10:49] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: now I get >> ERROR :Closing Link: [xx.xxx.x.xx]  (Ping timeout)
[10:49] <dyrne> adaptr: though i fully intend to harras you now :)
[10:49] <Agrajag> xipietotec: look at the routes.
[10:49] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: do I need to port forward?
[10:50] <adaptr> dyrne: bring it on, n00bster! :P
[10:50] <Agrajag> xipietotec: the one to 0.0.0.0 is your default route
[10:50] <Renu23> if i wright click on an iso image and i want to burn it the minimum value is 6x;i want at 4x>>how can i do this?
[10:50] <dyrne> adaptr: soon as i learn to spell properly
[10:50] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, If you created that config with gproftpd it seem like it messed up somewhere but I can not locate where, try to comment out (or delete) the last block of the config that starts with "<Anonymous /home/mrdenix>".
[10:50] <ulisse> in Feisty I have my nautilus statusbar no more displaying status, what can I do?
[10:50] <Agrajag> the gateway for that is 192.168.1.1
[10:50] <Agrajag> xipietotec: to 192.168.1.1 is your router.
[10:50] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: that would be the next step
[10:50] <hypn0> you'd have to be pretty stupid to harass people on net :-))
[10:50] <maxamillion> how close is feisty to the package freeze?
[10:50] <wastrel> hi
[10:50] <james296> how is it possible to change my font color on my desktop icons?
[10:50] <neozen> maxamillion: hey!
[10:50] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: op now it connected
[10:50] <maxamillion> neozen: hiya
[10:50] <xipietotec> Agrajag:  okay, so following http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370 this guide, I should use 192.168.1.1, ja?
[10:50] <adaptr> hypn0: and we all *know* that 90% of humanity is really, really smart... yes ?
[10:50] <Renu23> can anybody help me please
[10:50] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: hmm weird
[10:51] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: let see how this fairs
[10:51] <adaptr> Renu23: if you ask a question, maybe...
[10:51] <Renu23> if i wright click on an iso image and i want to burn it the minimum value is 6x;i want at 4x>>how can i do this?
[10:51] <neozen> maxamillion: I ended up perching in here as there seems to be more possibility for help
[10:51] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi  did that i got the same errors
[10:51] <xipietotec> and I should use: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ra0 -j MASQUERADE     ?
[10:51] <Enverex> adaptr, Ok, theoretically speaking if you had someones IP and wanted to "harass" them. What would you do?
[10:51] <adaptr> Renu23: I have no idea what happens if you right-click on an ISO file
[10:51] <Renu23> if i want to burn
[10:51] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, did you make a backup of that config file?
[10:52] <Agrajag> xipietotec: yeah, looks like it.
[10:52] <neozen> maxamillion: other then the default programs and the speed, I haven't seen many differences between xubuntu and regular ubuntu
[10:52] <adaptr> Enverex: I have no idea, I have never felt the need yet
[10:52] <kingcobra> neozen, new stalling point in terminal  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12232
[10:52] <Renu23> adaptr my english is not so good
[10:52] <juanfe> hi all
[10:52] <Menasim1> I want to install realplayer
[10:52] <Renu23> sorry
[10:52] <kingcobra> neozen, illtry it in gui also
[10:52] <adaptr> Renu23: please just open th efile in k3b or something, and set your preferences there
[10:52] <_Mr_Denix_> Jow not really :D . should i uninstall and reinstall the app ?
[10:52] <Enverex> adaptr, Well that's my point, what exactly are you going to do? Ping them to death? lol
[10:52] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi not really :D . should i uninstall and reinstall the app ?
[10:52] <xipietotec> allright, here's hoping it doesn't disable my net access again
[10:52] <neozen> kingcobra: did it work?
[10:52] <juanfe> any has a toshiba satellite a100 laptop with Ubuntu installed?
[10:52] <adaptr> Enverex: that's not to say I don't know how - surely you have heard of botnets
[10:52] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi woudl pasting your conf help ? so i could use yours ?
[10:52] <fabiano> how i do to add the amsn in repositories?
[10:53] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, done and done: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12233/
[10:53] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, that's the standard one.
[10:53] <xtknight> fabiano: you enable the universe and multiverse repositories
[10:53] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi checking .thank you :)
[10:53] <xtknight> !multiverse | fabiano
[10:53] <ubotu> fabiano: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[10:53] <Enverex> adaptr, Well if the person has botnets then I'm sure they'd be able to get the persons IP without having to wait for them to manually post it to a channel, heh.
[10:53] <Renu23> but i want to burn an iso image at 4x and i can t because the minumum value at wright click on it>write to disc is 6x
[10:53] <IcemanV9> fabiano: it is in universe repo
[10:53] <james296> so yeah, how can I change the font color of icons on my desktop?
[10:53] <Renu23> adaptr any ideea?
[10:54] <neozen> kingcobra: you should be able to just open up a terminal and run these commands:
[10:54] <neozen> cd /home/turlach/Desktop/bcm4318-nm.tar.gz_FILES/
[10:54] <neozen> sudo ./ndiswrapper_setup
[10:54] <adaptr> Enverex: and yes, I probably would ping him to death... as you know, dripping a packet on your head every second for days on end is guaranteed to drive him nuts :)
[10:54] <adaptr> Renu23: as I said, open a disk burning program and burn it from there
[10:54] <colbert> What is the command to put in a launcher when I want to run a program with wine? just "wine program" doesn't work
[10:54] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, fyi, I found gproftpd harder to use then to edit /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf manually after reading up abit on the settings.
[10:54] <Renu23> adaptr i want to burn at 4x and i can not
[10:55] <neozen> Renu23: your burner just might not support 4x
[10:55] <adaptr> Renu23: you have not tried what I told you, how do you know
[10:55] <kingcobra> neozen, i did that
[10:55] <ulisse> colbert: try wine "program"
[10:55] <Renu23> yestarday suported
[10:55] <neozen> kingcobra: ok
[10:55] <neozen> kingcobra: and?
[10:55] <dyrne> colbert: the exe files are under a wine drive at like /home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/  and so on
[10:55] <neozen> kingcobra: what did it say?
[10:55] <dyrne> colbert: once they are installed
[10:55] <neozen> kingcobra: pastebin the result
[10:55] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: I think its working now
[10:55] <mooey> howdy. i need to buy a wifi pci card, can anyone recommend one thats supported with open drivers?
[10:55] <kingcobra> neozen, still stalls at the point in th paste
[10:55] <fabiano> i selected the amsn how i do to install now?
[10:55] <kingcobra> neozen, new stalling point in terminal  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12232
[10:55] <colbert> well if I am trying to run uTorrent, and I have it in /home, what do I put ?
[10:55] <mlankhorst> mooey: intel wifi :D
[10:55] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: the server responds to my ping << PING LAG284162174
[10:55] <cX-kads> >> :wraith.crucial-x.net PONG wraith.crucial-x.net :LAG284162174
[10:56] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: thx a loy man
[10:56] <Renu23> yesterday i had values from 1x to 16x
[10:56] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: thx a lty man
[10:56] <mooey> mlankhorst: do intel sell pci wireless cards?
[10:56] <Renu23> today i dont have
[10:56] <dyrne> colbert: wine utorrent.exe  but might have to run winecfg first
[10:56] <Renu23> why
[10:56] <neozen> mooey: check ebay or bestbuy lol
[10:56] <mlankhorst> not sure if they sell them seperately, this 1 came with laptop, but might have to look for something else then
[10:56] <Renu23> adaptr any ideea?
[10:56] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: terrific! :D
[10:56] <Renu23> neozen?any ideea?
[10:56] <mikebeecham_> Hi there, can anyone point me in the right direction of K3B troubleshooting?
[10:57] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 to my rescue again
[10:57] <fabiano> i selected amsn in repositories how i do to install now?
[10:57] <neozen> Renu23: did you do something stupid like flash the firmware of your drive?
[10:57] <Renu23> no
[10:57] <neozen> Renu23: b/c that would do it
[10:57] <Renu23> nothing
[10:57] <neozen> kingcobra: yeah... I think I gotcha
[10:57] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi using your .conf still get the same errors ! i'm confused lol
[10:58] <Renu23> i have also xp on pc and is writing at 4x
[10:58] <neozen> kingcobra: type lsmod |grep "bcm"
[10:58] <Renu23> but my iso file is on ubuntu
[10:58] <cX-kads> IcemanV9 damnit !@!!! it died again
[10:58] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi maybe i should try using other FTP server ? any recommendations  ?
[10:58] <Renu23> if it was on xp it was burned from a long time
[10:58] <neozen> kingcobra: the ndis driver argues with the builtin one... which is probably already loaded
[10:59] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, I only used proftpd so no comment :)
[10:59] <neozen> kingcobra: thus...... the ndis driver can't install
[10:59] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: I don't get any more pONGs from the server
[10:59] <dyrne> _Mr_Denix_: why not just use ssh? from windows you can run winscp and from linux just scp or sftp
[10:59] <patchrick> #etech
[10:59] <kingcobra> neozen 1 min
[10:59] <family> hi!
[10:59] <neozen> kingcobra: let me dig around
[10:59] <family> can someone help me?
[10:59] <mikebeecham_> Hi there, can anyone point me in the right direction of K3B troubleshooting?
[10:59] <_Mr_Denix_> dyrne i have succesfully used ssh server on linux with a putty from an windows os . still FTP sounds more human :)
[10:59] <genii> Renu23 at commandline, to find the right drive: cdrecord -scanbus   then make a note of the 3 # to left of the recorder. Then   sudo cdrecord -v -eject speed=4 dev=ATA:1,0,0  <isofilename here>      but replace ATA:1,0,0 with what is correct from scanbus
[10:59] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: you're still online, right?
[10:59] <_Mr_Denix_> Jowi thank you for trying :) appreciate it
[11:00] <kekos> which is the channel for wireless help???
[11:00] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: yup
[11:00] <family> mikebeecham_: #kde is a good place to start
[11:00] <dyrne> _Mr_Denix_: winscp is actually a very nice gui interface (drag drop)
[11:00] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: then i wouldn't worry about it .. as long as you're not disconnected.
[11:00] <Jowi> _Mr_Denix_, no prob.
[11:00] <linxeh> _Mr_Denix_: you really shouldnt use FTP unless you are using anonymous ftp, or some form of encrypted authentication
[11:00] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: ok well it disconnect me now
[11:00] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: lol
[11:01] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: so I guess port forwarding?
[11:01] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: how do I point xchat to an open port?
[11:01] <_Mr_Denix_> dyrne checking it out thank you :) will bug later with questions if i won't make it :P
[11:01] <jeanre> anyone know how to run Murrina themes on ubuntu?
[11:01] <family> how do I stop ubuntu from fscking on boot up?
[11:01] <family> it dosfscks my other two hard drives
[11:01] <Jowi> linxeh, well, it's quite useful if restricted to the local lan. easier then setting up samba that's for sure :)
[11:01] <family> and takes like 20 mins to boot
[11:02] <arch_> what is the name of the config file (if there exists one) where I can change the order of execution for programs on startup? (I need to initiate conky after I initiate beryl)
[11:02] <_Mr_Denix_> linxeh its like private FTP .only for my data. i just want to access it remote. i have FTP on my windows pc , still i want it on linux
[11:02] <IcemanV9> family: each time? or every 30 boots??
[11:02] <kekos> which is the channel for wireless help???
[11:02] <kingcobr1> neozen: that command doesnt have any output
[11:02] <family> IcemanV9: each time
[11:02] <dyrne> family: there is a script in /etc/init.d/ you can disable im not sure of the name. itll still check / occationally but not the others  like: sudo update-rc.d -f scriptname remove
[11:02] <IcemanV9> cX-kads: yeah. port-forwarding. dunno about other ports (ask ops)
[11:02] <kingcobr1> neozen: it could stil hav worked though
[11:03] <neozen> kingcobr1: possibly
[11:03] <neozen> kingcobr1: restart.... and see
[11:03] <kingcobr1> neozen: ok bak in a wile
[11:03] <neozen> kingcobr1: make sure you have network-manager-gnome installed
[11:03] <jeanre>  anyone?
[11:03] <IcemanV9> family: yikes. never seen this before. hard drive is dying?
[11:03] <neozen> kingcobr1: if you're in gui ubuntu
[11:03] <kingcobr1> ok
[11:03] <martin_> clear
[11:04] <family> IcemanV9: no... it does hda1 two, but I have a windows 98 install
[11:04] <Zambezi> martin_, /clear
[11:04] <family> IcemanV9: and I have it auto mount
[11:04] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: ok thx
[11:04] <neozen> kingcobr1: here's the guide I've recommended for use with this particular card: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102
[11:04] <prohacker> ice box =)
[11:04] <family> IcemanV9: hda1 takes about .5 seconds to do
[11:04] <_Mr_Denix_> is the .md5 extensions recognized by linux ? (ubuntu edgy) . next to it , it says " platform independent ". thanks
[11:04] <family> IcemanV9: but I guess dosfsck on fat32 is slower
[11:04] <Zambezi> Anyone here using XSane? I tried today and the pictures are just black.
[11:05] <CaRLoS_23_> hola
[11:05] <CaRLoS_23_> alguien puede ayudarme?
[11:05] <IdleOne> !es
[11:05] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[11:07] <neozen> family: size of the partition also has a lot to do with the time necessary to fsck it
[11:07] <CaRLoS_23_> gracias
[11:07] <coldfish> how can i delete my swap partition? i don need it anymore. my RAM is enough for all the work.
[11:07] <mlankhorst> coldfish: recommended to keep it anyway
[11:08] <family> neozen: I don't think its "fsck"ing it, I think its just doing some type of light scan or something
[11:08] <neozen> coldfish: swap might still be necessary for some operations....
[11:08] <Zambezi> If I use LVM with six harddrives. What happens if one harddrive breaks?
[11:08] <Airforce5555> Im getting problems with sound in skype
[11:08] <neozen> coldfish: even though it doesn't seem to be in use
[11:08] <Enverex> I have a Radeon Mobility 9000 and I'm using the "radeon" driver but the 2D rendering performance is abysmal, is there anything specific I should be doing?
[11:08] <Apoc> hello?
[11:08] <violot> Airforce5555, you mean sound in general
[11:08] <neozen> family: well... seems like its checking it
[11:08] <Airforce5555> yep
[11:08] <coldfish> but it uses small amount of it. for example: %5 . and hdd sound makes me crazy.
[11:08] <violot> He has problems with any sound
[11:08] <Airforce5555> just in skype
[11:09] <family> neozen: I have 2 40GB hds and one 14GB
[11:09] <Enverex> coldfish, It wont use the SWAP unless it REALLY needs to, so the HDD wont drive you crazy
[11:09] <neozen> family: it does that when it notices big issues with the harddrives
[11:09] <family> neozen: the Linux 40GB does not even take a second
[11:09] <neozen> family: ie... bad sectors
[11:09] <Apoc> ok, can anyone give me a hand with some extremely minor noobish questions?
[11:09] <Airforce5555> can anybody offer help?
[11:09] <neozen> apoc: we'll see
[11:09] <family> the fat32 with dosfsck takes about 5 mins
[11:10] <neozen> apoc: ask away
[11:10] <Apoc> a'ight, i'm just curious how i access a different hard drive
[11:10] <Airforce5555> skype does not have sound output or input
[11:10] <neozen> apoc: you mount it
[11:10] <Apoc> ok?
[11:10] <kingcobra> neozen: no joy theres no wireless devices installed
[11:10] <jrib> Apoc: what filesystem?
[11:10] <family> neozen: both
[11:10] <Apoc> NTFS
[11:10] <family> HDs are good
[11:10] <jrib> !ntfs > Apoc    (Apoc, see the private message from ubotu)
[11:10] <Apoc> ok thank you
[11:10] <kipseron> !gtksu
[11:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtksu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:10] <coldfish> why does my ubuntu use the swap partition unless it really needs to? MY ram is not full however it uses the small amount of the swap partition
[11:11] <cX-kads> IcemanV9: now I get this error Connection closed by foreign host.
[11:11] <neozen> kingcobra: take a look at the guide I mentioned
[11:11] <AngryElf_> it seems that everytime new updates come down these days I have to run dpkg --configure -a before I can get the new ones -- and it always seems like it's different packages that aren't configured correctly.....any ideas?
[11:11] <IdleOne> jrib, how do you do that so quickly?
[11:11] <Jowi> Airforce5555, it was quite a while since I used skype (quit using it when ebay bought it up) but try "killall esd" in a terminal and start skype again.

[11:26] <jrib> Apoc: hmm I don't see any other partitions on there
[11:26] <Oswy> It's called wlan0, but it sees it as a wired connection.

[11:28] <jeanre> is there a quick way to do this?
[11:28] <Oswy> Ugh.
[11:28] <Oswy> Well, thanks anyway.
[11:28] <Apoc> jrib: would it make a difference that the second drive is on IDE and the one ubuntu is installed on is SATA?
[11:28] <Oswy> I'll keep asking, maybe try some other things.
[11:29] <mikebeecham> xtknight: no, I've only been using linux for a week, and am still getting to grips with it...I still need a lot of hand-holding

[11:29] <razzorz> ok lets try tis again... ( how does one make VLC default Player... ( so it popus up when a download is done ) besides Totem player
[11:29] <TheVault> Hello everyone, was wondering if anyone has used Wifi yet in the new feisty fawn release so I can hear feedback on that particular area?
[11:29] <xtknight> mikebeecham: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9755/README/index.html
[11:29] <jrib> Apoc: there have been some issues with that recently... does it use jmicron?
[11:29] <Apoc> jrib: don't have a clue
[11:29] <mikebeecham> xtknight: thanks...will read now
[11:29] <xtknight> TheVault: #ubuntu+1 channel for Feisty feedback
[11:30] <jrib> Apoc: what chipset on the mobo?
[11:30] <xtknight> mikebeecham: looks like this specifically is what you want, appendix G http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9755/README/appendix-g.html
[11:30] <TheVault> xtknight: Thank you very much
[11:30] <deebus> Jowi:  added a new user, still has the same problem
[11:30] <kingcobra> neozen: yes i forgot 2 put in password bak in a min
[11:30] <xtknight> mikebeecham: i dont know why it wouldn't appear in nvidia-settings though try the manual X.org configuration way as described in the aforementioned link..
[11:30] <neozen> kingcobra: lol
[11:30] <neozen> ok then
[11:30] <goku> ice- i get the messge connection refuse
[11:30] <Camaxtli> Oswy: You mean an invisible folder?
[11:30] <Pitze> I'm pretty used to gentoo.. and I was wondering when and how I use su.. cause I don't have the password for it.. don't I ever want to be root in ubuntu?
[11:31] <Oswy> I guess, yeah.
[11:31] <chrisjs169> how can i restart the sound server?
[11:31] <xtknight> Oswy: prefix the folder with . to hide it
[11:31] <Apoc> jrib: Nvidia nforce 4 SLI
[11:31] <Recyclable> is there a way to make grub boot XP by default - or the last used OS?
[11:31] <jrib> !sudo > Pitze    (Pitze, see the private message from ubotu)
[11:31] <Oswy> k, thanks.
[11:31] <Camaxtli> Oswy: Just add a . in front of the folder name
[11:31] <Ferret> Pitze: 'sudo su'
[11:31] <goku> ice- i get the msg could not connect to pop.earthlink.net. connection refuse
[11:31] <xtknight> Oswy: it can still be shown in ls -al and Show Hidden Files in nautilus but it's harder to see
[11:31] <Oswy> Also, noob question, how do I log in as root?
[11:31] <xtknight> Oswy: sudo -s
[11:31] <jrib> !sudo > Oswy    (Oswy, see the private message from ubotu)
[11:31] <Bagua> hi, I installed the Nvidia driver, and it changed the language of nautilus, how can i get back my language??
[11:31] <Ferret> Pitze: But generally you shouldn't use a root shell, but I use it if I have to do a lot of fiddly folder and file moving work
[11:31] <swhalen> you dont want to do that
[11:31] <mikebeecham__> xtknight: Yeah, i'm reading now, but one thing's for sure...for a windows boy NOTHING is going to be easy!
[11:31] <deebus> Oswy:  you have to explicitly allow it
[11:31] <Toran1> OK, when I plug my camera into my computer and open up f-spot to import the pictures, it says "could not claim the usb device". I've tried downgrading the libgphoto-related libraries  as described in this forum thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=383058 . I've tried editing /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules , replacing the line described in this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgphoto2/+bug/91250 . Neither of thes
[11:31] <Oswy> OK, thanks.
[11:31] <deebus> look at your login manager
[11:32] <Camaxtli> Recyclable: Change the grub config and reinstall grub
[11:32] <Oswy> k
[11:32] <deebus> Oswy:  I don't recommend allowing that unless it's necessary
[11:32] <Pitze> Ferret: ok.. but it's totally normal that I don't have the password then? :] 
[11:32] <swhalen> oswy, use sudo as a prefix for root commands
[11:32] <Jowi> deebus, how about restarting gdm "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" and "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start". there is also "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" but that does not work all the time for me.
[11:32] <deebus> it's safer not doing that
[11:32] <chrisjs169> any ideas for restarting sound server?
[11:32] <deebus> Jowi:  tried that
[11:32] <mihailo> hello! anyone here use the tv out on an nvidia card?
[11:32] <deebus> Jow:  gdm restarts just fine, actually
[11:32] <Oswy> I mean, I just have to enable sudo access (or something) by other users.
[11:32] <goku> hwo do u set up email pop email in evolution  and earthlink . i keep getting pop connection refuse. can some1 point me to the right place for help?
[11:32] <Oswy> Is that doable?
[11:32] <Ferret> Pitze: I guess so, I don't have my root password on any of my machines... I set it to something random
[11:32] <jrib> Apoc: well it sounds like this https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/57502 even if we are not sure that your mobo uses the jmicron controller.  Maybe someone else here has more info about that
[11:33] <swhalen> could someone help me with googleearth
[11:33] <Jowi> deebus, do you get any errors at all logging in. like "your session lasted less than 10 seconds" or similar=
[11:33] <Jowi> ?
[11:33] <deebus> I think I found it...I removed evolution, like, all of it, and I think accidently removed ubuntu-desktop
[11:33] <Bagua> hi, I installed the Nvidia driver, and it changed the language of nautilus, how can i get back my language??
[11:33] <deebus> Jowi:  no
[11:33] <deebus> Jowi:  unless I ctl-alt-backspace multiple times
[11:33] <jrib> swhalen: what specically?
[11:33] <Jowi> deebus, ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package and can be removed without affecting other installed programs.

[11:33] <deebus> aw crap.  that sucks
[11:33] <nick__> Can someone help me edit my Places menu
[11:33] <swhalen> it just wont start, hangs at splash, with no output
[11:34] <mihailo> does anyone know how to clone the picture from my desktop onto my tv?
[11:34] <deebus> Jowi:  does that pastebin error msg make sense to you?
[11:34] <jrib> swhalen: do you get any output when you try running it from a terminal?
[11:34] <Pitze> Ferret: oki nice... can I ask how you normally install programs? as I said I'm used to gentoo, so I've almost only done the "emerge" thing and stuff works fine.. is there something like that or should I dl the progs?
[11:34] <IcemanV9> goku: that page should help you to set up correctly (even though it was for thunderbird client, but same info though)
[11:34] <deebus> http://pastebin.ca/411140
[11:34] <Jowi> deebus, but if you think you might have remove other programs that you might need you can re-install ubuntu-desktop.
[11:34] <swhalen> no..thats the odd thing.......
[11:34] <Apoc> jrib: ubuntu recognizes my PATA optical drives though
[11:34] <alucard> i recompiled my kernel and it just says "loading kernel" and then it hangs
[11:35] <deebus> Jowi:  I just did (via ssh).  I sent it a reboot signal.  going to try to log in in a minute
[11:35] <jrib> swhalen: are you using beryl or compiz?
[11:35] <swhalen> i use fglrx
[11:35] <zasf> hi all
[11:35] <nick__> Can someone help me edit my Places menu
[11:35] <Jowi> deebus, no, that one does not mean a thing to me.
[11:35] <Jowi> deebus, the error I mean.
[11:35] <alucard> i recompiled my kernel and it just says "loading kernel" and then it hangs
[11:35] <jrib> nick__: anything you bookmark in nautilus will appear in your Places menu
[11:36] <Jowi> deebus, perhaps that file is corrupted.
[11:36] <Ferret> Pitze: Try the FAQ and other links in the topic
[11:36] <mihailo> no one here uses tv out on an nvidia card?
[11:36] <morrolan> exit
[11:36] <deebus> hm.  not sure what I'd do to fix it
[11:36] <Jowi> deebus, are you using edgy or?
[11:36] <deebus> it's a strange message
[11:36] <deebus> dapper
[11:36] <trond> Is it possible to make windows float over panels in gnome? It used to be a setting in gnome-conf, is there a way to fix this in a configuration file or anything?
[11:36] <nick__> jrib I made a link called Documents in my home folder and it automatically adds it to the places menu
[11:36] <deebus> dapper with mythtv
[11:36] <Jowi> deebus, I would give you mine, but I'm on edgy and not sure they are the same.
[11:37] <nick__> jrib and it wont let me right click in nautilas and remove it because its above the line
[11:37] <deebus> good call
[11:37] <trond> By floating over panels I mean that I can maximize windows fully over the panels
[11:37] <jrib> nick__: weird
[11:37] <deebus> I'd like to avoid a complete reinstall...mythtv setup is kind of tricky
[11:37] <Jowi> deebus, if mythtv is setup to run when you logon perhaps it modified that file.
[11:37] <nick__> jrib i figured there has got to be a txt file to edit
[11:37] <goku> basically i know how to set up pop email on outlook and so on but i cant set it to work in evolution
[11:37] <goku> can some1 help me
[11:38] <nick__> jrib also i deleted it and remade teh documents link and it added itself back
[11:38] <Recyclable> use thunderbird
[11:38] <Recyclable> goku
[11:38] <Jowi> deebus, make a backup of /etc/X11/Xsession.d/55gnome-session_gnomerc and try mine anyway if you like
[11:38] <goku> recyclable - ?
[11:38] <deebus> Jowi:  I got it.  reinstalling ubuntu-desktop fixed it
[11:38] <Recyclable> goku: go to package manager and find thunderbird
[11:38] <goku> i keep getting connection refuse and in evulution.
[11:38] <deebus> right now myth is not set to run at startup
[11:38] <Jowi> deebus, ok
[11:38] <Recyclable> it's a better email client
[11:39] <deebus> Jowi:  thanks for the help man
[11:39] <michaelfavia> anyone know how i can install ffmpeg header on my box?
[11:39] <deebus> have a good one, folks
[11:39] <michaelfavia> headers
[11:39] <jrib> nick__: hmm, I can't replicate that here though I am using a different version.  What capitalization scheme did you use?
[11:39] <michaelfavia> there isnt a ffmpeg-dev package
[11:39] <swhalen> jrib, is there a log i can use?
[11:39] <michaelfavia> and i need the headers to compile ffmpeg-php
[11:39] <jeanre> man I hate firefox
[11:39] <jeanre> it so sucks
[11:39] <swhalen> why?
[11:39] <jeanre> as soon as I open it my pc slows down
[11:39] <jrib> swhalen: not that I know of.  Check if google earth has any verbose or debug flags you can use
[11:40] <nick__> jrib "Documents"
[11:40] <Kou> what program would a mac user need to transfer files with my ubuntu machine via ssh?
[11:40] <Oswy> Ugh, how do I rename a file? Is it sudo rename -v '/hda1/folder' '/hda1/newname'?
[11:40] <mihailo> Nvidia TV Out, anyone having experience with it?
[11:40] <swhalen> jeanre, try swiftfox
[11:40] <goku> it is strange why i cant connect using evolution?
[11:40] <preaction> Kou: OSX comes with scp, which is file transfer using SSH
[11:40] <goku> anyone know why?
[11:40] <rendo> How do I shutdown X?
[11:40] <nick__> jrib i erased the link it dissapeared, i recreated and it didnt show up, but when i rebooted it did
[11:40] <goku> anyways i'm downloading tbird right now
[11:40] <Kou> preaction - thanks
[11:40] <Jowi> jeanre, there are tons of how-to's on how to speed up firefox. make it use less memory and faster connections.
[11:40] <neozen> michaelfavia: nope
[11:40] <jrib> nick__: why do you say link?  Is it a different partition?
[11:41] <dyrne> Oswy: i only use rename for bulk renaming normally just 'mv file newfile'
[11:41] <Oswy> k
[11:41] <Oswy> Thanks.
[11:41] <neozen> michaelfavia: you need to download the source for ffmpeg off of their site
[11:41] <xtknight> anyone use Firewire via their Audigy in Linux?  if so, how well does it work?  i need a firewire-in port and that's the only port i have available.
[11:41] <neozen> michaelfavia: try googling ffmpeg
[11:41] <jeanre> swhalen: is it in the repos?
[11:41] <IcemanV9> goku: are you using secure connection or not? if yes, then turn it off ... and are you using 'password' for auth type?
[11:41] <hypn0> jeanre: you tried dillo?
[11:41] <neozen> michaelfavia: should be one of the top results
[11:41] <nick__> jrib I have all my documents movies music etc on a mirrored partition
[11:42] <Jowi> rendo, "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" if you're using ubuntu. kdm if you use kubuntu
[11:42] <rendo> Ty
[11:42] <jrib> nick__: well mounted partitions will show up there automatically somehow
[11:42] <swhalen> jeanre, im not sure, i use automatix

[11:45] <neozen> !apt
[11:45] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[11:45] <goku> anyone know a good newsgroup reader software
[11:45] <Flannel> !synaptic | goku
[11:45] <ubotu> goku: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[11:45] <crdlb> goku, pan
[11:46] <nick__> jrib that link u sent was very helpful on knowing why it shows up but i wish i knew hows to stop that
[11:46] <xtknight> thunderbird
[11:46] <crdlb> goku, if you use sylpheed it has newsgroups too
[11:46] <jrib> nick__: just make it lowercase
[11:46] <goku> flannel- ok i used syn and download thunderbird.. what next? where is that program d/l to
[11:47] <nick__> jrib I know I can do that but I am one of those people that wants to know how to fix not how to work around
[11:47] <crdlb> goku, applications -> internet
[11:48] <goku> ok i see hwo about uninstall program?
[11:48] <crdlb> goku, find it in synaptic and remove it
[11:48] <goku> ok cool
[11:48] <nick__> jrib whats is the command to show all the running processes
[11:48] <goku> syn is a cool feature hehehe
[11:48] <IcemanV9> top
[11:48] <crdlb> nick__, ps ax
[11:48] <Prez> my Edgy setup works beautifully except when I resume from suspend to disk, my sound is dead
[11:48] <Prez> y have intel_hda driver
[11:48] <nick__> jrib oh yea i knew it was 2 letters
[11:48] <Prez> on Lenovo X60s
[11:48] <goku> i'm jus starting to use ubunto so please excuse me for asking newbies question
[11:49] <emet> help
[11:49] <Jowi> goku, the packages are automatically installed for you and should appear in the menu on your taskbar. if you want to see exactly what was installed you find the package in synaptic and right click on it. there is an option there to see more info.
[11:49] <haxality> goku: hint: it's spelled 'ubuntu' not 'ubunto' :)
[11:49] <jrib> nick__: you comfortable take a look at some C source code?
[11:49] <IcemanV9> !welcome | goku
[11:49] <ubotu> goku: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[11:49] <nick__> jrib for what?
[11:49] <jrib> nick__: to see where your documents thing is coming from, I think I've found it
[11:50] <billy> howdy folks.
[11:50] <emet> some clippy thing
[11:50] <emet> name vigor
[11:50] <emet> like 5 of them
[11:50] <emet> are on my computer
[11:50] <emet> and I can't kill them
[11:50] <bigcx2> the xchat in my tray bar says i have 2 private messages but i have no tab at the bottom or any way to check them
[11:50] <tts> how dose one disable and enable gmd using a terminal most likely ssh
[11:50] <nick__> jrib no i am not familiar with C
[11:50] <Flannel> goku: With *nix, you don't really need to know where programs go.  They're all in your path.  So, (if you ddn't have an applicaion menu) you'd go to a terminal and type 'thunderbird' and it'd start.  (well, usually the name is pretty straightforward, sometimes you need to use tabcomplete to figure it out)
[11:50] <preaction> tts: gmd?
[11:50] <Jowi> tts, you mean gdm?
[11:50] <nick__> jrib if its not just some txt config file then I am happy with saying its over my head...lol
[11:51] <bigcx2> Flannel: or in the case of thunderbird -- mozilla-thunderbird
[11:51] <tts> yes
[11:51] <Jowi> tts, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start|stop|restart
[11:51] <Flannel> goku: like bigcx2 said.  Sometimes the name isn't quite so simple, but it's easy to figure out.  But even then, it should be in your application menu currently.
[11:51] <KalleDK> Any know about OpenSSH ??
[11:51] <jrib> nick__: it's actually a debian patch, 06_documents_place.patch .  If you're interested, you can probably understand most of it.  And if you get rid of the patch and rebuild the package I'm fairly certian it will just remove that feature.  It seems to be hard-coded so no text file to edit
[11:51] <Flannel> !anyone | KalleDK
[11:51] <nick__> jrib how did you restart nautilas without loggin out
[11:51] <ubotu> KalleDK: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:51] <dyrne> KalleDK: quite a few of us :)
[11:52] <neozen> KalleDK: yeah
[11:52] <chibiace> Flannel: tab auto completion for the win.
[11:52] <neozen> KalleDK: having trouble?
[11:52] <KalleDK> Hehe
[11:52] <goku> ty - all for the helpful tips
[11:52] <KalleDK> Well I made a global authorized_keys file
[11:52] <jrib> nick__: well I don't have nautilus managing my desktop so I just closed it and opened it again but you can do 'killall nautilus'
[11:52] <neozen> KalleDK: ooohhhh boy
[11:52] <KalleDK> And downloaded it to my different servers / conputers
[11:52] <neozen> KalleDK: ok
[11:52] <nick__> jrib i know how to kill but not restart with proper config
[11:52] <KalleDK> and one of them refuse to log me in
[11:52] <neozen> KalleDK: sounds like an interesting setup
[11:53] <KalleDK> Well
[11:53] <jrib> nick__: it should restart on its own
[11:53] <KalleDK> I got 3 servers and would like to just use on key ;)
[11:53] <nick__> jrib: thanks
[11:53] <KalleDK> but one of them refuse the other two accepts fine
[11:53] <takesinn> Hey
[11:53] <goku> is there any good chess inferface software to play on fics?
[11:53] <takesinn> I can't get Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory or True Combat: Elite to work properly
[11:53] <KalleDK> Do you know why that could be :)
[11:54] <neozen> hoallo takesinn
[11:54] <tts> thanks Jowi:
[11:54] <billy> isn't the wine directory ~/.wine ?
[11:54] <neozen> KalleDK: nope... I have a very simple setup of openssh-server
[11:54] <neozen> KalleDK: good luck
[11:54] <neozen> KalleDK: I'm sure someone here can help you
[11:54] <Jowi> goku, eboard is one recommended on fics homepage and it works fine
[11:54] <KalleDK> hehe when im done I can ssh between them ;)
[11:54] <takesinn> When I try to get the server list the game just freezes. I have to ALT+F1 and ALT+F7 to make it respond again, only then the server list hasn't appeared
[11:54] <IcemanV9> billy: that is correct
[11:54] <Jowi> !info eboard
[11:54] <ubotu> eboard: A graphical chessboard program. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.5-6.1 (edgy), package size 470 kB, installed size 1232 kB
[11:54] <sisplau> ciao
[11:55] <neozen> takesinn: you're running these in wine right?
[11:55] <luiX_> wenas
[11:55] <luiX_> hi
[11:55] <billy> IcemanV9: thanks.  for some reason it wasn't showing up until just now.
[11:56] <IcemanV9> :)
[11:56] <dyrne> takesinn: well.. there's always tremulous :) did you install from a unofficial repo or just user the installers?
[11:56] <gnahhhh> Oswy, did you ever get that wireless working?
[11:56] <Oswy> Nope.
[11:56] <Oswy> :/
[11:56] <Oswy> Do you know how?
[11:56] <trond> After I installed firestarter external users can not connect to proftpd without me shutting down the firewall. How to fix that?
[11:56] <neozen> Oswy what card?
[11:56] <chiculub> i only have two screen resolution options, and the best one is 800x600.  how can i make this better or can somebody point me to where i can figure this out.  i didnt see anything in the manual
[11:56] <Oswy> Also, it says that my media drive (imported from Windows) is read-only, can I fix this, or am I stuck?
[11:57] <Oswy> Netgear MA311.
[11:57] <neozen> !resolution
[11:57] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:57] <neozen> 311
[11:57] <neozen> hmm
[11:57] <Lowe> Oswy, your media drive is NTFS?
[11:57] <neozen> any relation to the 111?
[11:57] <felixhcat> Hello
[11:57] <Joenin> hello
[11:57] <hanbush> hello, my copy of ubuntu isnt booting up, it hangs at the last part of the loading screen
[11:57] <ziro01> Hello
[11:57] <Oswy> Yes.
[11:57] <Oswy> Is that unreadable?
[11:57] <IcemanV9> when i typed 'xload -remote xxx.xxx.x.xxx' and it does not register any activities?! why xload works on local and not on remote??
[11:58] <diginet> Hi there :)
[11:58] <goku> how would i go about installing eboard?
[11:58] <Joenin> investigating
[11:58] <felixhcat> good
[11:58] <dyrne> hanbush: can you alt-ctrl-f2 and get to a getty login?
[11:58] <Lowe> Oswy, it's readable, but not writable afaik
[11:58] <IcemanV9> sudo aptitude install eboard
[11:58] <Oswy> Well, crap.
[11:58] <Oswy> Anyway, back to the wireless card issue.
[11:58] <Jowi> goku, enable universe repo, then install it with either apt-get, aptitude or synaptic package manager.
[11:58] <neozen> Oswy: if you feel lucky... check you ntfs-3g
[11:58] <neozen> *out
[11:58] <Jowi> !universe | goku
[11:58] <ubotu> goku: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:58] <Oswy> Haha, OK.
[11:58] <neozen> Oswy: that's stable now
[11:58] <Oswy> What's that do?
[11:59] <neozen> !ntfs-3g
