[12:01] <jrib> !icons > liorsolomon    (liorsolomon, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:01] <jrib> !ask | dimas
[12:01] <ubotu> dimas: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:01] <bipolar> bobbyd: I'm sorry, I've never played with the ppc version :\
[12:02] <harry__> a radeon 7000
[12:02] <dimas>  I was editing a video with avidemux and the system end up with no sound...restart the computer and still doesnt work...what should i do?...
[12:02] <addam1> i seen a video online where mark shuttleworth wrote his phone number on a black board
[12:02] <addam1> and said if you have any questions call me
[12:02] <abo> whenever someone logs in to Skype, ubuntu freezes for 5-10 seconds, anyone seen this issue?
[12:02] <jrib> !offtopic | addam1
[12:02] <ubotu> addam1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:03] <bofh80> harry__, well you should be OK for fiesty, but i would wait for the release if you haven't updated already
[12:03] <addam1> sorry jrib
[12:03] <delphiuk> Hi, if I want to run a command on startup in Ubuntu server, where should I put it?
[12:03] <bofh80> abo, that's a Skype problem i do believe
[12:03] <bofh80> abo, do you leave it running all day?
[12:03] <abo> bofh80, any known fix?
[12:03] <iain_> hey all
[12:03] <abo> bofh80, yes
[12:04] <bofh80> abo, skype haven't updated their linux ver in ages
[12:04] <bofh80> abo, yes skype memory leaks and all sorts, leaving it running is a bad idea
[12:04] <dimas> di you guys hide?
[12:04] <bofh80> abo, i use it for hours at a time, but theni close it
[12:04] <ada`ubuntu_> delphiuk, make a script in /etc/init.d and either mainually (to rc2.d) or with uptade-rc.d you can add it to startup
[12:04] <abo> ok
[12:04] <iain_> can I ask if there are any kgods in here who know something about resolution? Ggods would do fine too.
[12:04] <eternaljoy> dimas: yes
[12:05] <dimas> in the bushes
[12:05] <Insolit> what's the difference between breezy, edgy and other debian dists?
[12:05] <apokryphos> Insolit: /msg ubotu debian
[12:05] <jrib> delphiuk: ada`ubuntu_ 's suggestion or /etc/rc.local would do or use crontab with @reboot
[12:05] <dimas> i can slmell the smoke
[12:05] <iain_> As I do with every computer within arms reach (look out mac users - you have been warned. I term installing 'Ubuntu' on a working mac 'fixing' it)
[12:05] <st00ner> ok i grepped /var/log/dmesg but i couldnt find kernel crash logs
[12:06] <Bondina> helloy guys
[12:06] <delphiuk> thanks
[12:06] <st00ner> i have greped almost every log in /var/log to no success
[12:06] <iain_> so I happily have installed it on my new Dell Latitude D420
[12:06] <bofh80> Insolit, they are names, for their Stable, Testing, and Unstable distributions
[12:06] <Bondina> i have a problem can anybody help me with ubuntu linux ?
[12:06] <Insolit> and what is the name for stable?
[12:06] <iain_> (which btw I got from Dell without Windows :-D and with a reduction on that account)
[12:06] <jexdawg13> my frostwire will open and then annoyingly close (for no reason) a few seconds later. so i'm looking for a different p2p software... what else is good out there? what do you guys recommend?
[12:06] <delphiuk> do i need a script if it is only one command?
[12:06] <iain_> Anyway the issue is this:
[12:06] <bofh80> Bondina, that's why everyone is here, ask away
[12:06] <iain_> The laptop is supposed to have quite a high native resolution (forget exactly what it was)
[12:06] <jrib> delphiuk: it's up to you
[12:06] <jexdawg13> !ask | bonida
[12:06] <ubotu> bonida: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:06] <iain_> but all I'm getting in uuntu/kubuntu is a low resolution.
[12:07] <jrib> jexdawg13: gtk-gnutella
[12:07] <bofh80> jexdawg13, i install wine, use wincfg set to windows 98 and download aresgalaxy.sf.net :P
[12:07] <iain_> anyone have any ideas why? or how to fix?
[12:07] <Insolit> bofh80: what's the name for the stable release?
[12:07] <jexdawg13> bofh80, that sounds overly complicated, but i do love ares. jrib, thanks, i'll check it out
[12:07] <bofh80> Insolit, last time i looked it was sarge
[12:07] <Bondina> my graphiccard st an ati radeon 9200 se with 128 from gigabite.. and i cant activate 3d acceleration !! i dont know how :(( please help me someone
[12:08] <krel> Bondina: welcome to ATI on linux
[12:08] <iain_> I read something about installing 915resolutions ................
[12:08] <iain_> ?
[12:08] <eternaljoy> i have a 120gig hard drive.  If I get an 40gig external usb hard drive, can I make a copy of the 25gig used space on my initial hard drive unto the external hard drive?  Can I also backed up the internal hard drives boot sectors etc unto the external hard drive?
[12:08] <jrib> !fixres > iain_    (iain_, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:08] <iain_> Gave it a shot.........edited the file as it said......
[12:08] <iain_> nothing happened.
[12:08] <Bondina> hehe thx krel :) can you please help me
[12:08] <iain_> well except an error with my bluetooth adaptors class that went away....
[12:08] <iain_> Thank you!
[12:08] <Bondina> maybe private :c)
[12:08] <krel> Bondina: no... that's why I said welcome to ATI on linux
[12:09] <bofh80> jexdawg13, yes, but as IT guy i need some windows apps. you use Synaptic, install WINE, then run winecfg in a terminal to set to 98. you should be able to RUN the ares setup when you download it, and then an ICON might just appear in the MENU for it :P
[12:09] <Bondina> lol ok
[12:09] <Insolit> bofh80: no sarge :(
[12:09] <Bondina> i need really help
[12:09] <thunkt> Bondina: Krel's telling you it can't be done.
[12:09] <jexdawg13> bofh80 - i love you. i'm going to do that now. hope i don't break ... everything.
[12:09] <iain_> don't think that's the problem Jrib! but thanks for your help. Rebooting doesn't fix it. CTRL+ALT + backspace doesn't fix it....
[12:09] <jexdawg13> why do i need to set it to win 98 though?
[12:09] <Bondina> why cant be done yet ?
[12:09] <iain_> I think it's an issue with the D420
[12:09] <jrib> Bondina: have you visited the wiki page about ATI?
[12:10] <jrib> iain_: how about the other suggestions?
[12:10] <bofh80> jexdawg13, every other P2p app sucks, :) that's why i bother :P
[12:10] <krel> because ATI's closed-source drivers are garbage, and the open source drivers aren't much better.
[12:10] <Bondina> oh
[12:10] <bofh80> jexdawg13, oh Ares only works if it's set to Win98
[12:10] <jrib> !ati > Bondina    (Bondina, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:10] <jexdawg13> bofh80, and the new ares version (2.0.8) should work, yes? the pretty one?
[12:10] <bofh80> wine doesn't seem very compatible with xp or 2000 apps, but set to windows 98 and everything seems to work fine.
[12:10] <liorsolomon> anyone knows how can I prevent from my ubuntu to place an icon on the desktop everytime i create a mounted drive
[12:11] <liorsolomon> ?
[12:11] <bofh80> jexdawg13, yes i run it
[12:11] <Bondina> thx jrib
[12:11] <albacker> can i use KINO for editing mpg/avi files ?!
[12:11] <jexdawg13> alright, cool bof. i'll let you know how it goes.
[12:11] <jrib> liorsolomon: read the message I had ubotu send you
[12:11] <bofh80> jexdawg13, cool :)
[12:11] <Bondina> thanks
[12:11] <Bondina> i try it
[12:11] <bofh80> Insolit, version 3.1 is still current, and afaik tohe codename is Sarge
[12:12] <crippen> hello

[12:13] <alekz> hi, i have samba running under suse, and i have 8 ubuntu workstations, the problem is that ubuntu is not saving the password and every 15 minutes samba asks for it, how can i fix that
[12:13] <crippen> i am using the vlc player and watching something the picuter is great but the sound somtimes turns off and then on again
[12:13] <screevo> I have copied the Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Server CD to /media/ubuntu. What do I add to /etc/apt/sources.list to use that DIR as a repository?
[12:13] <bofh80> alekz, LOL that must be damned annoying. sorry i can't help you :(
[12:13] <dimas> is there anybody to haelp with the sound system...whent down
[12:13] <dimas>  I was editing a video with avidemux and the system end up with no sound...restart the computer and still doesnt work...what should i do?...
[12:14] <Ryan__> how do i use gnome with root permissions?
[12:14] <OrTigaS> why when i played rmvb files from realplayer it always stop?
[12:14] <jrib> !root > Ryan__    (Ryan__, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:14] <jrib> screevo: you want to specifically use it from your HD?  You know that you can use it from the cd directly?
[12:14] <thunkt> jrib = botmaster :P
[12:14] <screevo> THis is a server
[12:14] <screevo> I can't leave the CD in the drive
[12:14] <screevo> because if I ever need to reboot it
[12:15] <screevo> remotely, that is
[12:15] <bofh80> Ryan__, i think you should describe what you want to do otherwise sudo passwd  will set root pass. then log in as root. running X as root is dumb, don't do anyhting on the net with it.
[12:15] <jrib> screevo: why even use the cd instead of the online repositories?
[12:15] <screevo> it will go to the "Boot from CD" and stay there. :-D
[12:15] <crippen> i am playing avi files on vlc player and the sound turns off and crapple and finally the sound works couple minutes and then it do it again
[12:15] <crippen> i am using ubuntu 6.10
[12:15] <iain_> jrib> thanks restarted KDM via command line to see if it would help
[12:15] <bofh80> crippen, is this just with VLC?
[12:15] <iain_> Jrib> so I missed the other suggestions
[12:15] <plb> this sucks...my mouse is broken lol
[12:15] <plb> can't do much
[12:15] <screevo> Well, I guess here's question two: Are all the packages on the CD also in the online repositories?
[12:16] <jrib> iain_: the important part in the message was the wiki link, it's a page full of troubleshooting info for resolution problems
[12:16] <jrib> !fixres > iain_    (iain_, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:16] <crippen> i dont know  because i only know that vlc can play avi files
[12:16] <crippen> havent try with another program
[12:16] <eternaljoy> I have an internal 120gig hard drive that contains about 25gig of data, including an ubuntu ext3 partition, and 2 NTFS partitions.  How can I make a mirror backup, including boot sectors etc unto an external 40 gig USB hard drive?
[12:16] <plb> pity vlc is going qt
[12:16] <indotel> i need people speark spanish
[12:16] <jrib> screevo: yes, and the repositories get security updates ;)
[12:16] <indotel> hi emanuel
[12:16] <slvmchn> plb: why is that a pity? i didn't know that but why is that a bad thing?
[12:16] <screevo> Well, I'll just rely on Apt-get then. Thanks.
[12:16] <eternaljoy> plb: qt?

[12:18] <Mirth> I accidentally deleted my Panel, and added back everything besides the Network Manager, cause I can't find it.
[12:19] <st00ner> nothing there :[
[12:19] <jexdawg13> oh crap i forgot what my nick was jrib. i got confused, haha. i thought i was bert in irc

[12:19] <iltomee> hi, does anyone know about an ffmpeg channel around here?
[12:19] <SmileyLap> can anyone help me setting up firestarter to internet connection share?
[12:19] <jrib> jexdawg13: you can just /msg ubotu FACTOID    and he will respond with the info (this way it reduces traffic in the main channel).  A good one to learn about ubotu is:  /msg ubotu ubotu
[12:20] <jrib> iain_: #ffmpeg
[12:20] <jrib> iltomee: #ffmpeg

[12:20] <slvmchn> i've been getting an error in the last few days. i changed my gnome-panel so instead of applications etc. menus, i have one drop-down menu with all the submenus within it. however, now as soon as i click the dropdown menu it opens, but a bug buddy opens with this error: http://rafb.net/p/eQfYX947.html  and then gnome-panel resets. this just started happening and i have no explanation for why, i didn't change anything for it to start do
[12:20] <slvmchn> ing this
[12:20] <Bondina> look my ubuntu was hacked by kevin mitnick

[12:22] <gg> is there any full tutorial on how to setup it/
[12:22] <gg> ?
[12:22] <Slart> gg: all you need for router ability is iptables.. and almost all linux distros has that
[12:22] <jrib> Ryan__: did you read the link ubotu sent you?
[12:22] <slvmchn> jrib: not sure, i'll have to make another user to do it... if it does/doesn't do you have any advice either way?
[12:22] <Ryan__> no
[12:22] <slvmchn> is there a gnome-panel reset somewhere?
[12:22] <jrib> Ryan__: why not?
[12:22] <slvmchn> although i'd rather not lose all my shortcuts
[12:22] <jexdawg13> bofh80. yeah, when i run it is has tons of errors, but i guess thats expected. i'm downloading jimmy buffet songs for my mom right now. so... woowee. question though - it created an icon on my desktop called "Ares.lnk" - what is .lnk?

[12:24] <Slart> gg: it's the same procedure for almost all distros since it uses iptables.. there are lots and lots of tutorials out there
[12:24] <jexdawg13> it didn't create an icon anywhere in my ubuntu menu bofh80. should i just create a custom launcher and have the command be ... uh.... well i don't know?
[12:24] <Bondina> i just go crazy here
[12:24] <gg> thanks
[12:24] <jrib> slvmchn: does changing the menu to the original one make the problem go away?

[12:27] <Slart> gg: eh.. you have installed ubuntu and it's not booting alright?
[12:27] <kaushal> ok
[12:27] <slvmchn> is there a file i can edit somewhere to take it out
[12:27] <jrib> slvmchn: try the new user
[12:27] <gg> not installed yet
[12:27] <Bondina> i like kevin mitnick
[12:27] <plb> K_Dallas, isn't that for Debian?
[12:27] <EnsignRedshirt> Is there a reason why the *-updates repositories are not listed at packages.ubuntu.com?
[12:27] <slvmchn> jrib: i can't MAKE a new user, i can't get to the menu
[12:27] <ada`ubuntu> plb, guessed so but what generic optimized for? everything that runs Ubuntu? (486+?)
[12:27] <kaushal> any one here has better explanation
[12:27] <gg> when i put the cd and boot from it
[12:27] <K_Dallas> pld, yes but i got redirected to it from a ubuntu discusion
[12:27] <gg> the boot menu appear
[12:27] <kaushal> to my question
[12:27] <jexdawg13> bofh80 - got it. have a launcher up now to ares.exe
[12:27] <jrib> slvmchn: ctrl-alt-f1 will get you to a terminal (alt-f7 will bring you back to X)
[12:27] <Slart> gg: ok.. I'm not to up to date on the install procedure any more.. been a while since I did it.. perhaps someone else can talk you through it
[12:27] <LinuxProbie> Can anyone give me wireless help on an install of Fiesty?
[12:27] <jrib> slvmchn: gnome-panel will die soon, it should restart forever
[12:28] <plb> ada`ubuntu, more or less yep...just generic
[12:28] <K_Dallas> plb, so it doesn't install ubuntu :(
[12:28] <jrib> *shoundn't*
[12:28] <crdlb> LinuxProbie, #ubuntu+1
[12:28] <an> if i use beryl and want to play games with transgaming, will beryl use resourses when im in game ?
[12:28] <gg> last thing of these i have
[12:28] <plb> K_Dallas, there is a windows based ubuntu installer in the works
[12:28] <bofh80> jexdawg13, did you associtate it with WINE? you can do this by tpying in wine at the bottom where it asks for a custom command
[12:28] <K_Dallas> plb, good to know
[12:28] <bofh80> jexdawg13, after you double click it on i mean
[12:28] <Slart> an: ask in the beryl channel
[12:28] <slvmchn> jrib: i added the normal dropdown menu in the middle of the bar, it loads up to that and then dies
[12:28] <K_Dallas> thanks
[12:28] <LinuxProbie> crdlb: Huh?
[12:28] <plb> K_Dallas, there is a big thread in feisty forums
[12:28] <crdlb> LinuxProbie, ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:28] <Slart> an: but probably..  =)
[12:28] <bofh80> K_Dallas, that is one of hte funniest sites i've ever seen
[12:28] <an> ok ;)
[12:29] <slvmchn> jrib: hold on, i'm gonna try logging in under xubuntu and making a new user
[12:29] <iain_> I'm going to give up on my resolution for a while now jrib. Scratching my head a lot....problem for tomorrow maybie :)
[12:29] <gg> BUG  Unable To Handle Kernel NULL
[12:29] <jrib> iain_: what card do you have?
[12:29] <Slart> an: I kind of think that tremulous runs slower while beryl is running in the background.. but it might be just me imagining things
[12:29] <iain_> ubuntu with too low resolution still beats M$ hands down. :-D
[12:29] <K_Dallas> plb, I see. but if i boot from ubuntu DVD on a xp+vista system, would my previous OSes remain intact and usable under ubuntu (grub) ?
[12:29] <jexdawg13> bofh80 - i just prefaced the command with wine, so the actual command is     wine /home/bert/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Ares/Ares.exe   and it runs fine
[12:29] <gg> any one can help?
[12:29] <bofh80> jexdawg13, heheheheh cool
[12:30] <mikebeecham> Hi There, can I ask a question about Twinview please?  Can twinview be configured so that I have a clone of my desktop going to my TV, and be able to run video in fullscreen through that Clone?
[12:30] <plb> K_Dallas, never tried it but I wouldn't see why not as long as you format those partitions
[12:30] <jexdawg13> bofh80 - is it possible to make it so when i click on a file in ares it will open it in rhythymbox automatically?
[12:30] <dimas> i do have a problem with the sound and dont know if is a hardware or a software problem...is there anybody there that manage the subjet?
[12:30] <gg> where is the customer services ^^
[12:30] <Slart> K_Dallas: I worked for me.. I got grub options for booting windows 2000 when I installed ubuntu
[12:30] <K_Dallas> plb, you mean the partition left unallocated for Ubuntu
[12:30] <slvmchn_> ok jrib, i'm in xfce, it loads alright
[12:30] <plb> K_Dallas, I mean don't format the xp and vista partitions lol
[12:30] <K_Dallas> ok ;)
[12:30] <bofh80> jexdawg13, aww i just rescan with RhythmBox lol. i never tried that
[12:30] <Muninn> How can you copy something from one partition of a HDD to another in Ubuntu? As in two seperate installs of Ubuntu on different partitions. They don't seem to be able to see the other partitions.
[12:30] <slvmchn_> is there no config file for gnome-panel that i can just directly edit?
[12:31] <jrib> dimas: just ask your question every 15 minutes or so, asking for "someone to help" is counterproductive and will usually not get you someone to help
[12:31] <K_Dallas> Slart, i have read that vista is bit trickier than 2000 or xp
[12:31] <plb> K_Dallas, I believe Windows must be in the 1 portion of the partition table
[12:31] <plb> windows then linux
[12:31] <K_Dallas> plb, as usual ;)
[12:31] <jexdawg13> bofh80 - yeah, thats fine with me. thanks for all your help!
[12:31] <plb> it's picky like that
[12:31] <jrib> Muninn: mount the other partition
[12:31] <bofh80> jexdawg13, i didn't bother Playin in windows with ARES either, so not osmething i bothered with, i wish they'd REMOVE the media player options in ares to make it simpler :P
[12:31] <dimas> really?
[12:31] <slvmchn_> dimas: i usually ask a question, then if nobody responds in a good half hour or so, just hit the up key and enter and repaste my question
[12:31] <Muninn> jrib: How'd you do that?
[12:31] <sirkism> what programming languages do you think would be helpful in using ubuntu or any distro?
[12:31] <iain_> jrib> thanks for all your help by the way bro. I appreciate it :-)
[12:31] <jrib> !mount > Muninn    (Muninn, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:32] <iain_> jrib> my specs are here http://www1.ap.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/latit_d420?c=th&l=en&s=lca&~section=specs pretty much.
[12:32] <jrib> iain_: np, hope you sort it out
[12:32] <jexdawg13> bofh80 - yeah, p2p progs built in players tend to suck
[12:32] <plb> sirkism, python or c for ubuntu
[12:32] <Muninn> Thanks, jrib.
[12:32] <Dasnipa`> sirkism, in using? or in developing in/for?
[12:32] <Slart> K_Dallas: mm... you might be right there... but of course you back everything up before you install ubuntu.. like we all do.. always.. *ahem*
[12:32] <sirkism> more using
[12:32] <bofh80> jexdawg13, no problem, when i switched to linux, loosing Ares was like loosing my left hand..........i couldn't believe it was OpenSource GPL and no linux version lol
[12:32] <sirkism> but i wouldn't mind programming for it either
[12:32] <plb> sirkism, gtk = c QT(KDE)=c++
[12:32] <plb> sirkism, go with python
[12:32] <eternaljoy> is anyone here experienced in making a mirror image backup of a hard drive to another?
[12:32] <sirkism> alright
[12:32] <jexdawg13> yeah bofh80 - that is ridiculous. do you have any idea why it isn't ported?
[12:33] <r4nge> if i lose internet access would "/etc/init.d/networking restart" be the way to try to bring it up again?
[12:33] <jrib> Muninn: if you are in edgy, you will need to do some reading so just ask if you need some more hints because it isn't clear what to do
[12:33] <Dasnipa`> sirkism, bash scripting is key for getting the most out of it... but yeah for developing, c/c++ for kernal and low level stuff, python, for other stuff
[12:33] <K_Dallas> Slart, i have bought a new sata just for that . i will be dealing with backup after the new system is up and running (btw, my old HDD was almost fried, i am going to use it with a linux flavour and see if linux  could take care of hardware problems too ;)
[12:33] <sirkism> is there a website or help wiki that lays out the folder paths for ubuntu?
[12:33] <plb> sirkism, ruby is quite popular these days as well
[12:33] <jrib> !fhs > sirkism    (sirkism, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:33] <sirkism> yeah i was testing that out online
[12:33] <sirkism> figure simple enough, i just downloaded the package
[12:33] <plb> sirkism, you mean directories?
[12:34] <sirkism> yes, i'm sorry
[12:34] <plb> sirkism, windows= folders ;] 
[12:34] <Slart> K_Dallas: hehe.. same here.. I just buy new hard drives and mash the old ones into my linux box... =)
[12:34] <K_Dallas> lol
[12:34] <thesilentw> hello, i need help, i messed up my bootloader, and lost my win Vista :( , can anyone point me to a tutorial? thx
[12:34] <sirkism> haha
[12:34] <sirkism> sorry about that
[12:34] <Dasnipa`> who needs window? good riddance
[12:34] <sirkism> thank you for the link
[12:34] <jrib> iain_: you installed 915resolution as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto#head-0e3051713171cb5d1bf49dc2dc7bea24eb9ed83e ?
[12:34] <panfist> hi, i have a .rar archive that i can use in windows that won't open with the gui archive manager, what other ways can i try to unzip it?
[12:34] <sirkism> i'm trying this open-source out
[12:35] <jrib> panfist: have you installed unrar?
[12:35] <iain_> jrib> yep. got it with apt-get a few days ago trying to fix this.
[12:35] <plb> sirkism, what exactly do you want to know about the directory layout?
[12:35] <panfist> jrib: no i guess i will try that, thanks
[12:35] <Slart> K_Dallas: at my former job I ran a debian server with 7 or 8  40GB hard drives in a huuge raid array.. they died every now and then but I had 20 or so drives just waiting to replace them.. all small ones though
[12:35] <jrib> iain_: and you setup /etc/default/915resolution ?
[12:35] <iain_> jrib> then played around with some config fileto add MODE=auto and X and Y peremeters.
[12:35] <coldboot> Does anyone run Xgl with an nVidia card, and have the problem where all your windows turn white, and you can't actually see anything?
[12:35] <Mumbles> can anyone help me identify this font ? http://mumbles-uk.com/uploads/frontLOGO.jpg
[12:36] <K_Dallas> thesilentw, look here: http://tinyurl.com/3xsmjs
[12:36] <sirkism> plb, if i have a tar file on my desktop
[12:36] <crackintosh> can I change my screen resolution for the the command line? I am pretty sure that my tty's are at 320x240
[12:36] <sirkism> it is a program, what dir do i send that to?
[12:36] <jrib> iain_: hmm what if you try using the MODE=SOME_NUMBER like the wiki describes?
[12:36] <Slart> coldboot: check in #buntu-effects.. they even have a keyword for it.. try typing !whitescreen
[12:36] <plb> sirkism, tar is just something compressed like a zip file
[12:36] <coldboot> !whitescreen
[12:36] <thesilentw> hello, i need help, i messed up my bootloader, and lost my win Vista :( , can anyone point me to a tutorial? thx
[12:36] <plb> sirkism, what is it?
[12:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about whitescreen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:36] <iain_> jrib> as in literally 'SOME_NUMBER'?
[12:36] <sirkism> i'm trying out the framework for metasploit
[12:36] <Slart> crackintosh: try adding a vga=XXX line in grubs boot menu
[12:37] <iain_> jrib> or pluck one out of the ether?
[12:37] <K_Dallas> thesilentw, did you read what i told you?
[12:37] <Slart> crackintosh: there are different VGA modes .. there is a list somewhere
[12:37] <iain_> :)
[12:37] <jrib> iain_: no, the wiki page gives you the command you need to run to get a list of numbers you can use and what mode they correspond to
[12:37] <plb> sirkism, just double click it and archive manager should open
[12:37] <sirkism> yes, that's no problem
[12:37] <bofh80> jexdawg13, sorry was AFK. lol kid woke up...naw i don't know why they don't port it. i was thinking of ignoring all the bumf and copying stuff into glade, and making my own simple version lol
[12:37] <thesilentw> k_dallas, i think i missed it, sorry, can you put again?
[12:37] <sirkism> but i guess i'm use to looking for .exe files to run programs
[12:37] <K_Dallas> thesilentw, look here: http://tinyurl.com/3xsmjs
[12:37] <iain_> jrib> ohh....*back to school today*....
[12:37] <K_Dallas> i hope that could help you
[12:37] <jexdawg13> bofh80 - if you did that, you'd be my hero
[12:37] <thesilentw> K_dalas, thx mate
[12:37] <bofh80> jexdawg13, considering the current tcpip.sys restrictions in windows it's actually better running under wine in linux lol
[12:38] <plb> sirkism, lol no exe's in linux
[12:38] <K_Dallas> mp
[12:38] <sirkism> i know
[12:38] <sirkism> that's why i am struggling
[12:38] <sirkism> haha
[12:38] <jexdawg13> bofh80 - haha
[12:38] <sirkism> i don't know what to click on to command to type to actually start the program
[12:38] <plb> sirkism, what exactly do you need to do so we can help you
[12:38] <slvmchn> jrib: making a different user didn't help, it still tried loading the same panel and crashed at the dropdown menu... so i'm running blackbox in the meantime... is there a config file for gnome-panel somewhere i can directly edit?
[12:39] <iain_> jrib>  can I be a pain and ask for that URL again? I didn't bookmark it before I killed X and restarted
[12:39] <iain_> jrif> :-)
[12:39] <jrib> iain_: /msg ubotu fixres
[12:39] <jrib> slvmchn: well that means that it isn't a user configuration issue and I don't know what other configuration you would want to change regarding gnome-panel
[12:39] <michoelc> Hi all. For some reason, I cannot connect to localhost (127.0.0.1), although I can connect if I use my internal ip. Any idea what could be the problem?
[12:39] <sirkism> plb, i just want to know where to place my program files, does it belong in the /bin folder so everyone on the laptop has access to it
[12:40] <jrib> slvmchn: you may want to search bugs.ubuntu.com and file one if one does not already exist for your issue
[12:40] <plb> sirkism, is it an executable?
[12:40] <angie75> hello, having problems with grub, error 18, i would like to switch to lilo
[12:40] <slvmchn> ok jrib... i just thought maybe there'd be a file where i could edit out the drop-down menus and leave the rest of the panel (which is mainly links)
[12:40] <plb> sirkism, usually go in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin
[12:40] <dimas> is there any smart person around with some spare time willing to spend it on helping me solve a problem i have with my sound...would like to check if there is a problem with the hardware and not the software...i did experience some power down while i was editing a video with avidemux...al tyhe seden i dont have sound anymore and even after restarting the comp. and the sound from ubuntu restart dont work eather...is that nice person around?
[12:40] <slvmchn> but thanks for helping me, i'll check ubuntu.com and google around for a bit
[12:41] <slvmchn> actually it looks like my programs so far all work under blackbox
[12:41] <mikebeecham> Hi There, can I ask a question about Twinview please?  Can twinview be configured so that I have a clone of my desktop going to my TV, and be able to run video in fullscreen through that Clone?
[12:41] <jrib> slvmchn: oh, yes you can do that.  I misunderstood.  You can run gconf-editor and go to /apps/panel.  There you will find (somewhere) a list of loaded applets
[12:41] <sirkism> plb, that's what i'm trying to figure out
[12:41] <sirkism> in linux
[12:41] <Budtske> Replaced broken NIC, new one gets detected (see the drivers load in dmesg) yet i have no Eth0 interface, this is driving me nuts.... what should i check ?
[12:41] <sirkism> what is the equivalent to the .exe
[12:42] <IndyGunFreak> mikebeecham: someone was here asking a very similar question yesterday, i don't think anyone ever came up with a way to do it... Good luck
[12:42] <seyton> anybody who use audacious in here?
[12:42] <Mirth> gggggggggggggggggggggoodsexisexpensive
[12:42] <iratik> How do i upgrade from dapper to edgy ?
[12:42] <plb> sirkism, depends...mainly scripts use extensions like *.c *.pl *.py...there are *.bin files but those are usually for installing things
[12:42] <jrib> sirkism: have your read the documentation in your help menu?  It is a great way to learn the small (big?) differences about Ubuntu if you have never used Linux before
[12:42] <slvmchn> !help
[12:42] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[12:43] <mikebeecham> IndyGunFreak: Thank you anyway....not a great result, but thanks :D
[12:43] <LinuxProbie> Awfully quiet in #ubuntu+1
[12:43] <dimas> the no nice people dont need to aswer...or give an opinion
[12:43] <Mirth> Anyone have a preference of DVD Ripper?
[12:43] <wdwhitney> I have no sound with an audigy 2. sound preferences show that the audigy 2 is selected. How can I fix this?
[12:43] <asy_> source apt for ia32 -lib32 in 64bit ubuntu
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> Mirth: acidrip
[12:43] <jrib> !sound > wdwhitney    (wdwhitney, see the private message from ubotu)
[12:43] <plb> my audigy works fine out of the box
[12:43] <asy_> ?
[12:44] <ada`ubuntu> iratik, www.ubuntuguide.org
[12:44] <sirkism> jrib, i apologize-that's probably the first thing i should have done.
[12:44] <Slart> Mirth: acidrip or dvd::rip
[12:44] <happyface0> whats the command in grub to set another partition as default boot?
[12:44] <Slart> Mirth: both available in the repos
[12:44] <Mirth> Okay, cool
[12:44] <iratik> Ada`ubuntu: I've gone there and followed the  "[How to upgrade from Hoary Hedgehog -> Breezy Badger -> Dapper Drake] " link - it goes nowhere ... the same page
[12:44] <sirkism> i just found out that you pronounce it lee-nucks
[12:44] <ardchoille> Mirth: dvd ripper: http://dvdshrink.sourceforge.net/
[12:44] <Mirth> Can you select parts of a DVD to rip
[12:44] <asy_> i have 7.0.4
[12:44] <Slart> Mirth: yes
[12:44] <maddash> happyface0: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:44] <Mirth> OKay, I'll check those out,.
[12:44] <Mirth> Thankies.
[12:45] <happyface0> thanks maddash
[12:45] <Slart> Mirth: there's not easy replacement for dvdshrink yet though
[12:45] <thesilentw> k_dallas, hey, sorry to bother you again, but, is it possible to install using win XP, cause i normally use ubuntu emulated via vmware on the vista install, and i messed it up somehow, maybe emulation had some setting wierd that changed real drive instead of the emulation
[12:45] <tdn> I want to use a specific nameserver. I have written that one in my /etc/resolv.conf, but every time I run ifup on my interface and do a dhclient, /etc/resolv.conf is overwritten with nameservers provided by the dhcp server. How do I use DHCP and still use my specific nameservers?
[12:45] <Slart> Mirth: but ripping to xvid or divx etc works fine
[12:45] <Muninn> !DiskMounter > Muninn
[12:45] <wdwhitney> jrib - I have tried the fresh kernel option, and it worked until my last reboot, then I lost sound again.
[12:46] <jrib> wdwhitney: sorry, I don't really know anything about sound.  Was just making sure you had a chance to take a look at that guide
[12:46] <LinuxProbie> so my wireless card shows in lspci and shows as eth1, but wlist eth1 scanning produces no results and the wi-fi light on my laptop isn't on.
[12:46] <wdwhitney> jrib - np, thanks
[12:46] <Budtske> Replaced broken NIC, new one gets detected: see the drivers load in dmesg, gets an irq and loads like it should. Yet i have no Eth0 interface, this is driving me nuts....
[12:46] <K_Dallas> thesilentw, i didn't understand your problem but i have never used vmware anyways so i might not be to help
[12:46] <dimas> snobie people dont need to answer
[12:46] <dogmeat> yo
[12:46] <ada`ubuntu> iratik, "To upgrade from Dapper to Edgy, just replace (ctrl+h) all instances of 'dapper' with 'edgy' within the /etc/apt/sources.list." apt-get update,  then upgrade then finall dist-upgrade
[12:46] <variant> whats the deal with ubuntu calling wifi cards "eth" it's not ethernet.. so why call it eth?
[12:46] <b14ck73425> hey, my sound just went out yesterday and i dont know why...can anyone help?
[12:46] <asy_> source unstable debian add to ubuntu ?
[12:47] <peaker> variant: I think it depends on the wifi driver
[12:47] <plb> variant, it's not ubuntu its linux
[12:47] <iratik> holy crap -- thats easy
[12:47] <wdwhitney> *shrug* I'll try it again, I was updating - maybe the settings were overwritten
[12:47] <iratik> thanks
[12:47] <variant> iratik: that is not the reccomended way
[12:47] <peaker> variant: in my laptop its called eth0 while in my pc another chipset is wlan0
[12:47] <variant> peaker: ok
[12:47] <Dasnipa`> variant, yes, it depends on the driver being used
[12:47] <iratik> variant: what is anyother way?
[12:47] <ardchoille> !upgrade
[12:47] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:47] <bruenig> variant, doesn't the update-manger -c or whatever do the same thing essentially
[12:47] <iMilad> Hi everybody,is there anyway to make gnome show only part of file names? because it always shows complete filenames and it messes my icons
[12:48] <b14ck73425> rename
[12:48] <variant> iratik:  change the sources.list file as you say but then just run update-manager and it will offer to update to the next release.. it's _much_ less likely to break your system
[12:48] <thesilentw> k_dallas, well, basically, i installed ubuntu on vmware virtual machine, so i would mess anuthing up, but i started to get a error on the bootloader with a MBR error, so i installed win xp on another partition to try and fix it
[12:48] <b14ck73425> or have it just show icons
[12:48] <iratik> variant: update-manager isn't a gui app is it?
[12:48] <variant> bruenig: yeah, didn't know it would handle the new sources.list thing on it's own though?
[12:48] <dogmeat> i installed ubuntu on /dev/hda2, then windows (was on /dev/hda1), how can i get back to a dual booting startup option? tried changing boot flag from gparted, and also deleting the windows part, but now the ubuntu won't boot giving message 'os not found'
[12:48] <bruenig> variant, what does update-manager do better than dist-upgrade, I am just wondering
[12:48] <variant> iratik: it is, there are command line alternatives that might be better though if you prefer
[12:48] <plb> thesilentw, why not just install ubuntu on a seperate partition?
[12:48] <iratik> variant: i'm running server
[12:49] <thesilentw> plb, first on virtual machine, so i would mess anything up xD
[12:49] <ardchoille> bruenig: I've been wondering the same thing.
[12:49] <thesilentw> plb, i guess it mess up anyways
[12:49] <variant> bruenig: no idea to be perfectly honest.. but I have had my head bitten off in here by "experts" insisting that it is.. it's certainly nicer for the newbies to not have to use the command line if they prefer
[12:49] <iMilad> b14ck... i'm looking for a better soloution. windows puts ... for files with long names. is it possible to do the same in linux?
[12:49] <bruenig> nowhere in the documentation has it said anything. It just says it is better
[12:49] <variant> iratik: in that case you should use aptitude
[12:49] <plb> thesilentw, lol
[12:49] <b14ck73425> iMilad, you could have gnome just show icons, or renam your files
[12:50] <b14ck73425> i dont think so, sorry about the repeat, i just saw your response
[12:50] <jrib> variant, bruenig: not knowing the specifics, it is aware of common mistakes apt-get makes when it needs to decide on a resolution and chooses the appropriate one.  There's a long thread on the mailing list about it
[12:50] <variant> bruenig: yeah, the normal excuse is that it wont leave you with "a bunch of broken packages" but i have never experienced that anyway and have always done apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:50] <variant> jrib: ok, cool :)
[12:51] <iMilad> b14ck: tx but that's not what i'm looking.
[12:51] <thesilentw> plb, btw, the live cd i have, on load, when ubuntu shows those small icons loading, (after login with user on normal install), it gets totally distorted, like a broken printer, with lots of lines, and i cant really read anything further, and it crashs
[12:51] <bruenig> iMilad, I doubt such functionality exists seeing as it is gnome
[12:51] <variant> might i reccomend to anyone in this channel who uses irrsi to block messages such as /joins and /quits etc.. it's _so_ much nicer in here iwthout the cruft
[12:52] <jexdawg13> bofh80, if you are still there, i can't open up ares anymore.. i run it in wine and it says it can't be found
[12:52] <iMilad> bruneig: tx
[12:52] <gneoso> what is the name of the defult cron dameon used in ubuntu??
[12:52] <bruenig> I like to know when people leave so I don't go on like an idiot talking to them
[12:52] <variant> bruenig: hahahaha
[12:52] <gneoso> out of interest
[12:52] <ardchoille> bruenig: hehe
[12:52] <b14ck73425> bruenig, not a fan of gnome im guessing
[12:52] <iratik> variant: Is there a tutorial for upgrading with aptitude - a method better than the apt-get method on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
[12:53] <bruenig> !cron
[12:53] <ubotu> cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[12:53] <awenasidilisome> hey
[12:53] <variant> bruenig: never thought of that :) would make a nice script to show you if omeone left (using the same method it uses to predict nick copmletion maybe)
[12:53] <plb> thesilentw, what kind of videocard do you have?
[12:53] <thesilentw> BFG 7800 GT
[12:53] <gneoso> does ubuntu use  vixie-cron?
[12:53] <variant> iratik: aptitude dist-upgrade i _think_ is hte command
[12:53] <variant> gneoso: if you want
[12:53] <awenasidilisome> anyone know about broadcom drivers
[12:53] <thesilentw> nvidia chipset
[12:53] <ardchoille> gneoso: Ubuntu uses Paul Vixie's cron, yes
[12:53] <bruenig> b14ck73425, per their design goals, it is meant not to baffle you with unnecessary functionality, so I am just assuming from that
[12:54] <gneoso> ardchoille: chears
[12:54] <b14ck73425> lol
[12:54] <b14ck73425> what do you use by the way
[12:54] <bruenig> xfce
[12:54] <b14ck73425> just curious
[12:54] <thesilentw> plb, did u see? BFG 7800 GT, nvidia chipset
[12:54] <bruenig> mainly out of hardware concerns though
[12:55] <b14ck73425> yeah, i didnt like it though
[12:55] <plb> thesilentw, strange I have an old fx5200 and it works fine
[12:55] <dimas> <man aptitude> u will have display all the commands for aptitude
[12:55] <b14ck73425> kde was okay
[12:55] <thesilentw> plb, i was thinking it made that error cause it is new ><
[12:55] <b14ck73425> but im a gnome fan
[12:55] <dooglus_> is there a command that will definitely shut down a box remotely?  'sudo shutdown -h now' and 'halt' have both failed.  I can still ssh to it after both of those command
[12:55] <plb> thesilentw, possible...have you googled about it?
[12:55] <dooglus_> s
[12:55] <lontra> kde 4.0 will be nice
[12:56] <plb> thesilentw, or checked the forums
[12:56] <b14ck73425> i hope
[12:56] <thesilentw> plb, not really
[12:56] <catid> oh yeah i'll use KDE4 when it comes out
[12:56] <thesilentw> plb, cause i have user ubuntu before on this machine
[12:56] <Slart> dooglus_: your computer didn't shutdown after a "shutdown -h now"?
[12:56] <awenasidilisome> anyone have info on broadcom wireless drivers so i can bounce some thoughts around
[12:56] <dimas> what command is good to check the sound on the terminal?
[12:56] <Slart> dooglus_: mine does..
[12:56] <iain_> I'm having resolution issues on my Dell. Does anyone have any experience with intels? (I've tried 915resolutions) :-/
[12:56] <bruenig> !fixres
[12:56] <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
[12:56] <awenasidilisome> iain what os is it?
[12:56] <jrib> dimas: aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup3.wav
[12:56] <Camaxtli> awenasidilisome: bcm4318?
[12:56] <Slart> dimas: try aplay filename to play a file using alsa
[12:57] <gneoso> plb: thesilentw: hey do the new 88000 work just as well as the 7*** series?
[12:57] <plb> thesilentw, I would look but my mouse is broken lol
[12:57] <dooglus_> Slart: it might have, but if it did, it came back up again.  all I know is it's up now...
[12:57] <dooglus_> Slart: I want it to switch off
[12:57] <gneoso> or are drivers still fairly new
[12:57] <b14ck73425> i use intel and have never had a prob with resolution
[12:57] <thesilentw> plb, i know the old ubuntu, i needed to stop the window-x install some drivers and start it again, but the new one should had work i guess, cause i had it before
[12:57] <awenasidilisome> camaxtli i think thats what i'm looking for i've looked around and all the places i go tell me to find the drivers from windows and write it for linux
[12:57] <b14ck73425> must be a dell thing
[12:57] <Slart> dooglus_: hmm.. mine shuts down as in *poof* silent, not running.. not restarting, no nothing
[12:57] <plb> gneoso, no idea I haven't brought a new video card in years lol
[12:57] <pewee> i have some issues with ubuntu 6.10 and the nvidia drivers. from time to time it just freezes and the reset button is the only way out. :(
[12:57] <Slart> dooglus_: any errors in the logs?
[12:57] <gneoso> plb: hehe
[12:57] <dooglus_> Slart: I think it must have restarted, because uname -r tells me the new kernel name
[12:58] <Camaxtli> awenasidilisome: Ndiswrapper?
[12:58] <b14ck73425> yeah i did too, the drivers thing is annoying
[12:58] <awenasidilisome> dunno
[12:58] <dooglus_> Slart: last thing in the logs: Mar 29 00:56:00 chrislap syslogd 1.4.1#20: restart.
[12:58] <pewee> b14ck73425: talking to me? :)
[12:58] <thesilentw> pewee, well, mine doesnt get that far
[12:58] <awenasidilisome> hold on let me get the dell c400 and see what i can do in there
[12:58] <Slart> dooglus_: ok.. so it restarts.. that's better but still not good.. check "man shutdown" to see if something has changed in the paramters
[12:58] <Slart> *parameters
[12:58] <Camaxtli> awenasidilisome: There are two options -> Ndiswrapper and fwcutter
[12:58] <pewee> thesilentw: managed that after an hour of work
[12:58] <LinuxProbie> Has the install for ATI cards changed at all between Feisty and Edgy?
[12:58] <iain_> Just searching for my install CD as being the easy way to remind myself :-)
[12:59] <gneoso> bob: jim:
[12:59] <iain_> think it's Edgy
[12:59] <Mirth> Hey Slart, you there?
[12:59] <gneoso> ?
[12:59] <b14ck73425> pewee, are you having problems with nvidia drivers?
[12:59] <Slart> Mirth: yes.. as far as I can tell.. I'm still here =)
[12:59] <plb> thesilentw, have you tried the feisty beta cd?
[12:59] <Mirth> lol!
[12:59] <awenasidilisome> camaxtli i've never used either one
[12:59] <Mirth> In AcidRip, how can I tell it to rip from one spot to another?
[12:59] <dimas>  has to be the hardware then...dont get no sound and saids is playing
[12:59] <ecker> whats this talk about ndiswrapper? thats why i came in here, I need help getting my wireless card to work using ndiswrapper. i have my driver installed and modprobed it i still can't get wlan0 to come up says no device found when i do ifup -a
[01:00] <thesilentw> btw, does anyone know how i can see (from windows :( ) the path to start the vista OS, cause i could write it on the boot.ini that is working now
[01:00] <iain_> 6.06 - though fully updated
[01:00] <theacolyte> !ndiswrapper | ecker
[01:00] <ubotu> ecker: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:00] <Slart> Mirth: isn't that what the "filename" box is for?
[01:00] <Camaxtli> awenasidilisome: I take it it doesn't work out of the box?
[01:00] <Slart> Mirth: under "general"
[01:00] <awenasidilisome> i think my friend hacked it into it
[01:00] <dooglus_> Slart: I see things like "Mar 28 23:21:35 chrislap kernel:  [<c0172069>]  sys_mount+0x6d/0xaa" in the logs too
[01:00] <Camaxtli> ecker: You also removed the default drivers from the wireless card?
[01:00] <awenasidilisome> i'm not sure what he did though
[01:00] <orange1> i saved some mp3s from to my media player but they wont play -- i assume its because linux wrote the mp3s in ext3 format and my mediaplayer is in FAT format
[01:00] <orange1> how can i make them playable
[01:00] <dooglus_> Slart: and "Mar 28 23:30:02 chrislap shutdown[11197] : shutting down for system halt"
[01:00] <bruenig> orange1, you assume wrongly
[01:01] <b14ck73425> anyway can somebody help me with some sound issues?
[01:01] <lontra> orange1: any mp3 is an mp3
[01:01] <theacolyte> !restricted > orange1 (check your PM's)
[01:01] <Mirth> I think that's just names the file, Slart.
[01:01] <thesilentw> plb, nah, i am a windows guy, only use ubuntu on laptop, cause it is old, or emulated on vmware so i can configure it while talking on msn
[01:01] <ecker> Camaxtli there wasn't one that i know of the driver that im using now is neti2220
[01:02] <Camaxtli> ecker: Did you already use this command? sudo modprobe ndiswrapper ?
[01:02] <thesilentw> i would change to ubuntu if it run the programs i use in windows tho
[01:02] <Slart> dooglus_: sounds right.. system halt..not system restart.. perhaps there are something else that makes it restart.. I've never had any problems with shutting my boxes down.. it's the one thing that almost always works =)
[01:02] <mikebeecham> Hi There, can I ask a question about Twinview please?  Can twinview be configured so that I have a clone of my desktop going to my TV, and be able to run video in fullscreen through that Clone?
[01:02] <Slart> Mirth: you mean like a temporary folder?
[01:02] <ecker> Camaxtli bout a hundered times so far
[01:02] <plb> mikebeecham, I believe so
[01:02] <plb> mikebeecham, there is a howto in the forums for that I believe
[01:02] <alucard> i installed ubuntu and now i cant boot on my windows partition (although I am able to access the files on it) my grub menu has linux booting off of (hd0,0) and linux reads my window partition as hda5, can anyone help me get windows working?
[01:02] <orange1> maybe i said it wrong. I can play the mp3 on ubuntu
[01:02] <Slart> mirth: there is a "cache" option in "Settings"
[01:02] <orange1> I cant play them on my media player
[01:03] <mikebeecham> plb: do you know how mate, because I cant find any information on it.  Also, i've been using linux for a little over a week, so I need lots of handholding on such things
[01:03] <Camaxtli> ecker: did you try "iwconfig" ?
[01:03] <thesilentw> alucard, same problem, but i dont have grub
[01:03] <bruenig> alucard, you are going to need to pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst and what your partition table looks like
[01:03] <bruenig> !paste | alucard
[01:03] <ubotu> alucard: 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:03] <Mirth> Slart: Oh, I meant start ripping the dvd at like, "0:30:50" to "1:13.00", for example
[01:03] <plb> mikebeecham, I don't know how personally but I was just looking on how to do it yesterday as well and came across a thread in the forums.
[01:04] <orange1> theacolyte: I can play the mp3s on ubuntu - but when i transfer them to my mediaplayer they dont play
[01:04] <mikebeecham> plb: any chance you would have the link mate?
[01:04] <theacolyte> orange1: are you reading them off a windows drive?
[01:04] <alucard> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12674/
[01:04] <Slart> Mirth: aahh.. now I understand.. I think you can only rip scenes/chapters.. but you can always rip it all and cut it down with avidemux afterwardds
[01:04] <bruenig> orange1, is there some special way that they are to be transferred, or are you supposed to be able to just dump mp3's to it like a usb stick and go
[01:04] <plb> mikebeecham, no but it should be pretty easy to find...just search for twinview clone something like that...I would look but my mouse is broken lol so all I can really do is talk in here
[01:04] <orange1> bruenig: dump and go
[01:04] <ecker> Camaxtli  Yes! is doen't say anything about wlan0 just says no wireless extention for lo, eth1, sit0 ??
[01:04] <Mirth> Yeah, I think I'm going to just rip it all anyways, Slart.
[01:05] <billy> !backup > billy
[01:05] <Muninn> jrib: I'm afraid none of that helped in any way. :)
[01:05] <bruenig> alucard, ok what partition is windows on, spatially, is it the second partition or the third or what.
[01:05] <alucard> well i installed it first so i assume it is the first partition
[01:05] <jrib> Muninn: k, join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[01:05] <plb> mikebeecham, I believe there is also something about it in the ubuntu wiki
[01:05] <alucard> is there a way i could access my partition table with software to determine that exactly
[01:06] <orange1> bruenig: my media player is in fat format so I just drag and drop files from my windows machine and they work -- i do the same in linux and the media player wont play them
[01:06] <Camaxtli> ecker: Wireless driver isn't active then, run ndiswrapper -i and pastebin (or copy paste) the result
[01:06] <plb> mikebeecham, didn't seem to difficult of a task
[01:06] <bruenig> alucard, are you on feisty?
[01:06] <alucard> bruenig: im on 6.10
[01:06] <alucard> edgy
[01:07] <bruenig> alucard, where did you get that 2.6.20 kernel,
[01:07] <alucard> kernel.org
[01:07] <alucard> but the problem existed before i ever recompiled my kernel
[01:07] <lontra> alucard: 2.6.20 is in feisty
[01:07] <bruenig> alucard, oh, I just assumed that if you compiled your own kernel, you would know how to setup grub
[01:07] <plb> alucard, gparted shows partitions
[01:08] <plb> or fdisk, cfdisk etc
[01:08] <alucard> bruenig: i know how to set up grub, i just cant seem to get the window partition working
[01:08] <slvmchn> jrib: i'm sorry, i closed xchat and reopened it, what was the file to edit for gnome-panel again?
[01:08] <plb> gparted is the easiest though
[01:08] <alucard> lontra: it supported the core 2 duo which is what i use
[01:08] <bruenig> alucard, well in that menu.lst, there is not a windows entry even in there,
[01:09] <thesilentw> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12675/ --> bootloader problems, help? :)
[01:09] <alucard> yah i removed it because it didnt work
[01:09] <jrib> slvmchn: oh, yes you can do that.  I misunderstood.  You can run gconf-editor and go to /apps/panel.  There you will find (somewhere) a list of loaded applets
[01:09] <alucard> but it was rootnoverify (hd0,0)
[01:09] <lontra> alucard: what about fdisk -l?
[01:09] <neil> hi guys bit of an odd one, installed kde to try it out, didnt like, removed
[01:09] <alucard> well
[01:10] <neil> all is perfect back to ubuntu now... but the bootloader is kubuntu!
[01:10] <neil> The loading bar immediately after grub..
[01:10] <alucard> gparted: gives me /dev/hda5 for ntfs
[01:10] <neil> how do i change it back :/
[01:10] <lontra> neil: kubuntu remains!
[01:10] <bruenig> neil, the splash screen is kubuntu, not the bootloader, but yeah I had that
[01:10] <lontra> neil: you need to remove the kubuntu usplash package
[01:10] <awenasidilisome> camaxtl broadcom 4306 drivers are what i need
[01:10] <ecker> Camaxtli   neti2220 is already installed. Use -e to remove it thats what ndiswrapper -i net2220 gave me
[01:10] <iratik> how do i check my version of ubuntu ?
[01:10] <bruenig> neil, it is a "bug" I guess, you can probably find it on the forums
[01:10] <bruenig> iratik, lsb_release -a
[01:10] <neil> balls :)
[01:10] <neil> ill look, thanks
[01:10] <lontra> bruenig: it's not a bug
[01:10] <neil> oh
[01:10] <thesilentw> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12675/ --> bootloader problems, help? :)
[01:11] <slvmchn> nice jrib, thanks a million
[01:11] <lontra> neil: it's a relic...you can remove the kubuntu-usplash package and run dpkg-reconfigure usplash
[01:11] <iratik> it still says dapper after i've run aptitude  dist-upgarde
[01:11] <bruenig> lontra, how is it not a bug?
[01:11] <alucard> /dev/hda2           12749       38912   210162330    f  W95 Ext'd (LBA)

[01:11] <neil> ive done the first bit, just not the reconfigure
[01:11] <neil> thanks :)
[01:11] <alucard> those are the non linux partitions i have
[01:11] <lontra> bruenig: because the splash package is still installed
[01:11] <Camaxtli> ecker: PM
[01:11] <lontra> it's not a bug at all
[01:11] <neil> i removed usplash :/
[01:11] <neil> just didnt reconfigure
[01:11] <lontra> anyways...brb
[01:11] <neil> neil@cascade:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash

[01:11] <neil> neil@cascade:~$
[01:11] <neil> guess that is sorted then..
[01:12] <bruenig> alucard, that is your whole table? grub does it spatially, if so then it would be hd(0,1)
[01:12] <morpheus74> Hi, has anyone installed skype on their Ubuntu machine?
[01:12] <Pelo> what's the command for displaying the kernel version again ?
[01:12] <neil> uname -r
[01:12] <LjL> uname -r
[01:12] <alucard> bruenig: (hd0,1)?
[01:12] <bruenig> morpheus74, I have at one point
[01:12] <alucard> ive tried that
[01:12] <Pelo> thanks
[01:12] <bruenig> alucard, yeah that is what I meant
[01:12] <kondor101> using 7.04, im impressed
[01:13] <billy> kondor101: what are you most impressed by?
[01:13] <bruenig> alucard, you said those were your non linux partitions though, which partition is your windows on. Taking the whole disk in consideration.
[01:13] <bruenig> is it the second partition of the whole disk or what
[01:13] <morpheus74> bruenig, I noticed skype is not in the repositories, not that I expected it would be.  I don't have much experience installing software on a Linux machine.  How difficult is it to install skype?
[01:14] <bruenig> morpheus74, there are debs you can use
[01:14] <kondor101> the codec thing
[01:14] <alucard> this is all the output fdisk -l gives me
[01:14] <alucard> /dev/hda1   *           1       12748   102398278+  83  Linux

[01:14] <ecker> Camaxtli your not recieving my PM's are you?
[01:14] <bruenig> alucard, you have windows on a logical partition?
[01:14] <bruenig> can you do that?
[01:14] <kondor101> billy:  the codecs install themselves, with just a little push here and there
[01:14] <morpheus74> bruenig, does debs mean that it's configured for the Debian package manager?  Where can I find some information on how to install debs?
[01:14] <Camaxtli> ecker: I ain't :/
[01:14] <alucard> no i believe that is just considered a logical partition because there is some freespace or something
[01:15] <thesilentw> can anyone point me to a boot cd that can install me a decent boot loader that works with win xp, vista and ubuntu? any one can do (maybe a simple one)
[01:15] <Pelo> morpheus74, http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[01:15] <iratik> WHat do I do after having ran aptitude dist-upgrade
[01:15] <jrib> iratik: what do you want to do?
[01:15] <Camaxtli> ecker: Join #wirelesstrouble
[01:15] <iratik> get to edgy from dapper
[01:15] <billy> thesilentw:  super grub disc should do.
[01:15] <Pelo> morpheus74,  .deb files are packages made for automated installation on debian based systems
[01:15] <Pelo> systems / distros
[01:15] <gannina> Can someone help me get gnome-color-chooser to work for Ubuntu Edgy?
[01:16] <morpheus74> Pelo, Thanks!  :)
[01:16] <bruenig> morpheus74, http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-deb
[01:16] <thesilentw> billy, lol, super?, if it works then where can i find it?
[01:16] <gannina> I can run the program, but when I change and apply new settings they don't do anything
[01:16] <billy> thesilentw: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Boot/Super-Grub-Disk-8071.shtml
[01:16] <bruenig> morpheus74, you should be able to double click on it or open it with gdebi, from command line it is "sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb"
[01:16] <madhatter349> hwo do i set up a vnc in ubuntu
[01:16] <thesilentw> billy, thx mate
[01:16] <morpheus74> Thanks all.
[01:16] <billy> no prob
[01:17] <kondor101> now my problem,  can someone tell me what line i would use for making sure that my torrent port is open, i know it has something of the iptables about it but i am not really techy enough to remember
[01:17] <thesilentw> billy, this works even without linux installed on normal partition right?
[01:17] <iratik> so what do i do next?
[01:18] <bruenig> !firestarter | kondor101 open it in this
[01:18] <ubotu> kondor101 open it in this: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[01:18] <wojownik> hi
[01:18] <billy> thesilentw:  to the best of my knowledge, though I've never used it sans Linux.
[01:18] <gannina> Can someone help me get gnome-color-chooser to work for Ubuntu Edgy?
[01:18] <morpheus74> I noticed Fiesty beta was released.  Does anyone know when the final version of fiesty is scheduled to be released?
[01:18] <iratik> gannina: try #gnome
[01:18] <kondor101> bruenig: thank you
[01:18] <gannina> thx
[01:18] <pix_525> hey
[01:18] <lavid> morpheus74: 19 april
[01:19] <pix_525> does anyone know what package I would find libc in?
[01:19] <billy> is there a terminal command to see info on particular file, like creation date, size, etc.?  ls with a flag?
[01:19] <pix_525> and I am installing the nVidia driver, so I suppose I need kernel-devel too?
[01:19] <Smilez> I got a quick question. Are all linux distributions the same when it comes to updating software via RPM (whichever one the system uses)??? I'm currently in OpenSuSe which I enjoy, but everytime there is a software update, I have to hunt down 10million dependencies
[01:19] <lavid> billy: ls -lha
[01:19] <thesilentw> billy, is there a chance i get things worse with that ?
[01:19] <bruenig> !info libc6
[01:19] <ubotu> libc6: GNU C Library: Shared libraries. In component main, is required. Version 2.4-1ubuntu12.3 (edgy), package size 4032 kB, installed size 9992 kB
[01:19] <billy> lavid:  thx.
[01:19] <pix_525> k
[01:20] <comodo> can someone tell me the command to check for direct rendering
[01:20] <bruenig> pix_525, that is installed by default though
[01:20] <lavid> comodo: try glxinfo
[01:20] <pix_525> okayu
[01:20] <ada`ubuntu> Smilez, cant understand your question totally but in Ubuntu its 2 click (or 2 command) to update
[01:20] <bruenig> pix_525, I presume you are looking for libc6-dev
[01:20] <billy> thesilentw:  well, there's always that chance I guess.
[01:20] <pix_525> I guess
[01:20] <pros1> Everytime I try to connect to freenode using irssi, I get connected to this &bitlbee servermode. Can't join these channels from there. Any ideas?
[01:20] <pix_525> the nVidia installer want's it
[01:20] <bruenig> !info build-essential
[01:20] <billy> comodo:  glxinfo | grep direct
[01:20] <ubotu> build-essential: informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.3 (edgy), package size 6 kB, installed size 48 kB
[01:20] <MrKeuner> hi, which package do I need to have /var/spool/mail/username
[01:20] <bruenig> pix_525, get build-essential it will install it along with other things needed to compile software
[01:20] <pix_525> okay
[01:20] <Smilez> ada`ubuntu: Basically, when updating software do the dependencies resolve themselves? Currently I'm in OpenSuSe and every software update requires I hunt down dependencies manually which is annoying
[01:20] <LjL> Smilez, unless 1) there is a packaging bug (doesn't happen often), or 2) you use non-official (and buggy) repositories,  then there is *no* dependency hunting to do
[01:21] <thesilentw> billy, ok, does it require you to input locations by hand?
[01:21] <pix_525> not just libc6-dev?
[01:21] <alucard> yo dudes
[01:21] <plb> MrKeuner, you could try postfix?
[01:21] <kondor101> a bit off topic, setting up my iptables for torrents,  is it tcp or udp?
[01:21] <Smilez> Thanks LjL... I recently read an article explaining how little effort is required in ubuntu to update software
[01:21] <bruenig> pix_525, right, it installs libc6-dev and make and other stuff
[01:21] <LjL> Smilez, "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" updates all the software you have installed, if there are updates available.
[01:21] <pros1> nobody here knows anything about the bitlbee gateway?
[01:21] <Smilez> which is very nice because of all the work I have to do in opensuse to do the same
[01:21] <awenasidilisome> anyone able to help me with a wireless problem
[01:21] <ada`ubuntu> Smilez, yes, totally automatically as for updates - using 3rd party programs may require a little more googleaing and reading to hunt down packages
[01:21] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: which?
[01:21] <MrKeuner> plb: I already have exim4
[01:21] <Smilez> LjL:  and is there a gui equivelent?
[01:22] <bruenig> !synaptic
[01:22] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[01:22] <pix_525> thanks
[01:22] <LjL> Smilez: of course, this means *only* using software from the *official* repositories - which will mean you can't just use the "latest version of everything", you'll have to wait a little. it's worth it, though
[01:22] <pix_525> is this all I need for the nVidia driver?
[01:22] <pagan0ne> does anyone have any reccomendations on how i could record a small clip of vidro synced to audio off my webcam and soundcard??
[01:22] <Smilez> thanks LjL and ada`ubuntu. what about repositories... I would still need to add them for things like VLC and Windows Media codecs?
[01:22] <billy> thesilentw:  no.  it'll read your hdd and stuff.
[01:22] <plb> pix_525, just use envy to install nvidia
[01:22] <LjL> Smilez: yes, Synaptic. however i don't use it, but it's totally equivalent to the CLI version, since they use the same backend (APT)
[01:22] <pix_525> any other packages to install now that could help with Beryl later?
[01:22] <porter> Is it possible to use pine to check multiple emaill adresses on the same server without establishing multiple user account on the local system?
[01:22] <bruenig> pix_525, no, but go to #ubuntu-effects and see what they tell you
[01:22] <ada`ubuntu> Smilez, yes and no, check www.ubuntuguide.com for more info altho I dont like every point of that site :)
[01:23] <Smilez> thanks for all the advice... and I can run KDE in Ubuntu right? but Gnome is the default?
[01:23] <Zues_62> who knows how to get display picks in gaim
[01:23] <kondor101> Smilez:  which ubuntu version you using?
[01:23] <bruenig> !kubuntu
[01:23] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[01:23] <plb> porter, sure
[01:23] <ada`ubuntu> Smilez, Kubuntu = KDE ubuntu
[01:23] <Smilez> I'm not in ubuntu... im just pondering an ubuntu install
[01:23] <Smilez> thanks ada
[01:23] <whta> anyone around know why it takes so long for gnome to log out on my machine? only with ctrl alt backspace and with logout button.
[01:23] <LjL> Smilez: VLC, no, it's available in the *standard* repos (you just need to enabled the "Universe" repo, since it's disabled by default, but it's still an official repositories). codecs, yes, since they're not legal in every country to distribute. there is a repository, however, and it usually works well enough.
[01:23] <Zues_62> by rights it should
[01:23] <awenasidilisome> insolit my broadcom 4306 wireless card wont always connect to the internet
[01:24] <LjL> !software > Smilez    (Smilez, see the private message from Ubotu) | to get a broader idea
[01:24] <Smilez> thanks a bunch... So is it safe to say that Ubuntu (kubuntu) is the easiest Linux desktop?
[01:24] <MrKeuner> why does mailituls install mysql-common
[01:24] <iratik> not by far -- thats quite a limited statement
[01:24] <kondor101> Smilez:  well i just installed 7.04 beta,  it goes and fetches any open source codecs for you
[01:24] <plb> Smilez, yes
[01:24] <LjL> Smilez: i'm uncomfortable with making blanket statements. it's probably on the easy side compared to the average Linux distribution ;)
[01:24] <porter> I'd sasy so
[01:24] <iratik> actually - i mean.. its a loaded question
[01:24] <thesilentw> billy, how do i burn it onto dvd to make it bootable?
[01:24] <awenasidilisome> insolit: it works but it only likes one of the wireless connections at work and it hates mine here at the house
[01:24] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: could you be more specific?
[01:25] <pix_525> hrmm
[01:25] <Smilez> Thanks for all the info and links guys. I've been using linux since slackware 5.x or so... so I'm used to the terminal, but i want to install a nice easy linux for my GF on an external USB drive
[01:25] <thesilentw> billy, shouldnt it be like...an ISO file
[01:25] <plb> I've been using Linux since 1999 and it's the easiest one I've used
[01:25] <bruenig> Smilez, I mean they are all pretty simple if you know what you are doing except gentoo, damn gentoo and its emasculating ways
[01:25] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: hates? what do you mean?
[01:25] <pix_525> is there a problem with name resolution on the default install?
[01:25] <ada`ubuntu> Smilez, easy and profession at the same time :) I like it
[01:25] <neil> emasculating ? :D
[01:25] <awenasidilisome> insolit: hates means it will never connect to it no matter what i do
[01:25] <awenasidilisome> insolit: but it knows its there
[01:25] <LjL> pix_525: uhm, like what?
[01:25] <pix_525> LjL: pm?
[01:25] <Smilez> I love linux, and I'm a huge open source supporter. So I'm trying to convert one windows user at a time... or at least get them to dual boot. My Girlfriend loves my opensuse install, especially with beryl and all the other gadgets... so I'm doing my part :D
[01:26] <kondor101> Smilez, I would say 7.04 is easier than 6.06, but there is more guides and help for 6.06LTS,  so it is a bit of a coin flip
[01:26] <awenasidilisome> right now i have it wired so i can get different programs off the internet and new drivers but i'm not having any good luck
[01:26] <LjL> pix_525: nah, keep it on the channel, i'm not even sure i can help you with this (i have had *one* specific instance of a DNS problem, and i'm not even too sure how i solved it...)
[01:26] <thesilentw> billy, shouldnt it be like...an ISO file
[01:26] <pix_525> hrmm
[01:26] <pix_525> k
[01:26] <billy> thesilentw: hmm ... i thought it was.  they may have changed it.  just a sec.
[01:26] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: maybe you configured it with a wep key?
[01:26] <porter> I had Ubuntu (with the gui) installe on this machine but it rann slower than butter in July?
[01:26] <ada`ubuntu> 7.04 is definately much more user friendly but not stable yet (max 1 month I guess)
[01:27] <Smilez> kondor101: Thanks for the tip. I want to set my girlfriend up with a linux desktop, so she'll be asking me for help before checking for guides... but I have been reading up on ubuntu for a little while... so I'm psyched
[01:27] <awenasidilisome> nope
[01:27] <Smilez> Also, I read that Canonical cut some deals with Linspire to adopt their Click n Run and linspire will use Ubuntu instead of Debian now
[01:27] <awenasidilisome> insolit: its showing up in wireless assistant as not having a wep and my macbook connects to it perfectly
[01:27] <LjL> Smilez: so they say
[01:28] <slvmchn> jrib: finally fixed it, thanks for the help, took a little tinkering in gconf-editor but it worked
[01:28] <Smilez> LjL: True
[01:28] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: pls open a command prompt
[01:28] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: *terminal
[01:28] <porter> Novel sold out to M$.
[01:28] <slvmchn> jrib: such a weird bug though, i'm gonna have to put it up on the ubuntu site
[01:28] <awenasidilisome> insolit: k
[01:28] <jrib> slvmchn: did the menu start working again or you just removed it?
[01:28] <awenasidilisome> insolit: now what?
[01:29] <Insolit> put yourself as root
[01:29] <LjL> Smilez: anyway, keep in mind that if you want to add some third-party repositories (codecs and... well, depends - anyway be careful to add repositories *that work*), you *might* still have to fiddle with the command line. only once, though
[01:29] <awenasidilisome> k
[01:29] <porter> use su root then enter the password.
[01:29] <awenasidilisome> done
[01:29] <Smilez> LjL:  I hear you. I appreciate all the helpful advice. So which iso should I download?
[01:29] <LjL> Smilez: i'd recommend you ask here before using any given repository. and most importantly, *don't* use repositories meant for Debian - they will most likely mess up your Ubuntu.
[01:30] <billy> thesilentw:  here it is.  it's a iso.gz.  just unpack it to the iso.  http://forjamari.linex.org/frs/download.php/533/sgd_0.9588.iso.gz
[01:30] <Smilez> I would definitely ask in here first
[01:30] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: now do "iwconfig" and tell me which is your wireless interface
[01:30] <andre_pl_> how would I do a reinstall from within ubuntu without a cd? something that would wipe out everything i might have messed up and start over.
[01:30] <LjL> Smilez: the Desktop CD is the standard one for installing, but some people find the Alternate more to their taste (Alternate is a text-mode only installer, while Desktop is a "live CD" + GUI installer)
[01:30] <billy> thesilentw:  sorry about that.  got my links mixed up.  that other was for usb drives.  :-)
[01:30] <LjL> Smilez: also, if you've got limited RAM (like less than about 192 or even 256), use Alternate
[01:30] <RoundyT1> Can someone pastebin their sources list (FROM EDGY) Please???
[01:30] <awenasidilisome> its got lo , eth0, eth1
[01:31] <jrib> !easysource > RoundyT1    (RoundyT1, see the private message from ubotu)
[01:31] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: and which one is the wireless?
[01:31] <Smilez> I've been spoiled by the latest GUI installers... I'm sick of text installers thanks to freebsd... and I have 2gb's of ram, so im alright :D
[01:31] <awenasidilisome> guessing lo but it says no wireless extensions
[01:31] <d1gital> how do i share my printer with a windows computer?   (i have samba installed)
[01:31] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: lo is loopback
[01:31] <porter>  love the good old minimaltext installers.
[01:31] <awenasidilisome> its eth1
[01:31] <Smilez> I used to...
[01:32] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: are there no wireless extensions either for eth0 and eth1?
[01:32] <awenasidilisome> eth1 is the one showing all the stats
[01:32] <Insolit> so now do iwlist eth1 scan
[01:32] <LjL> andre_pl_: that's not too easy at all without a CD...
[01:32] <porter> If im not mistaken wireles lan cards should be preconfigured as wlan 0.
[01:33] <Smilez> Alright well im out everyone. Thanks ada`ubuntu and LjL and anyone else who helped point me in the right direction!
[01:33] <LjL> andre_pl_: what is the problem with using a CD? no drive, no Ubuntu CD, slow connection to download one...?
[01:33] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: what wireless network did it find?
[01:33] <awenasidilisome> insolit: flutterby
[01:34] <awenasidilisome> insolit: which is the house
[01:34] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: ok
[01:34] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: now do: "iwconfig eth1 essid flutterby key off"
[01:34] <Insolit> then do iwconfig
[01:34] <Insolit> and tell me if it's associated
[01:35] <d1gital> how do i share my printer (i can print from this computer) with a windows computer?   (i have samba installed)
[01:35] <thesilentw> billy, nearly lost your message, thx mate
[01:35] <awenasidilisome> insolit: essid came back as flutterby under eth1 nickname: broadcom 4306 encryption key :off
[01:36] <awenasidilisome> signal level 0
[01:36] <josh_> test
[01:36] <LjL> failed
[01:36] <billy> thesilentw: no prob.  hope it works for you.
[01:36] <slvmchn> jrib: i just removed it
[01:36] <slvmchn> at least for now
[01:36] <Pelo> d1gital,   try looking it up in the forum
[01:36] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: have u considered having a bad signal?
[01:36] <commando> That requires a that a root password be added due to the fact that you can only edit settings in cups as root.
[01:36] <xtknight> d1gital, you could try installing CUPS on windows i suppoes
[01:36] <xtknight> suppose**
[01:37] <awenasidilisome> yeah
[01:37] <awenasidilisome> which i'm working on correcting that
[01:37] <TheCaptain> Hello, is there a seperate channel for ultimate support?
[01:37] <awenasidilisome> but even when i'm 3 feet from the wireless router it wont work
[01:37] <xtknight> TheCaptain, this channel not ultimate enough for you?
[01:37] <LjL> TheCaptain: ultimate?
[01:37] <Mirth> Any Video Editors that can edit AVI files?
[01:37] <d1gital> xtknight: once i have done that, where do i tell it to look for the printer
[01:37] <Mirth> Like Vegas?
[01:37] <slvmchn> jrib: i just set up a second machine with ubuntu that i got up and running a lot easier now that i know what i'm doing with it on this one, and this machine was originally breezy that was upgraded to dapper upgraded to edgy., in the last year or so, so i think i'm just going to copy over my files and wipe it
[01:37] <Pelo> the capgadget   ulitmate edition is just a repack of whatever the current distro is
[01:37] <TheCaptain> Ah, okay.
[01:37] <LjL> ah, the ripoff
[01:37] <xtknight> d1gital, cups will setup a server.  umm after that i dont know but CUPs is a network printing protocol
[01:37] <TheCaptain> Then it is in fact ultimate enough for me.
[01:38] <TheCaptain> I am having a problem with the live cd on my travelmate 8204wlmi
[01:38] <TheCaptain> I spent the last hour browsing forums to no avail.
[01:38] <xtknight> let's hear it
[01:38] <c_lisp> hi is there a linux software that converts your dvds to avis?
[01:38] <Flare183> does anybody know how to play SPC files without having to use XMMS?
[01:38] <xtknight> c_lisp, mencoder
[01:38] <Pelo> TheCaptain,  we don'T actualy support ULtimate live cd ,  just get the regular dvd/cd and you can get the rest of the progs easily enough throught synaptic
[01:38] <Mirth> Any Video Editors that can edit AVI, like Sony Vegas?
[01:38] <d1gital> xtknight: does that mean the printer has to be connected to that computer? it is connected to this one(ubuntu) and i need to print from my laptop(windows)
[01:39] <xtknight> Mirth, kino ?
[01:39] <TheCaptain> It starts up fine and I can see the loading bar and opening animation, but when the bar hits 100% it "sort of" boots into the OS. As in, I can see it's loading it up but the video is all wrong

[01:41] <xtknight> d1gital, ok.  well then maybe you need to install a CUPS client on your windwos
[01:41] <xtknight> d1gital, http://www.owlfish.com/thoughts/winipp-cups-2003-07-20.html
[01:41] <Insolit> bcm43xx sourceforge
[01:41] <TheCaptain> How do I lower the resolution without booting into the os
[01:41] <xtknight> using CUPS IPP (internet printing protocol) on Windows
[01:41] <Insolit> i believe you'll find them there
[01:42] <Flare183> i don't know..
[01:42] <godtvisken> how do i reconfigure X windows?
[01:42] <LjL> !xconfig > godtvisken    (godtvisken, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:42] <awenasidilisome> insolit: i'll go there and check hold on
[01:42] <godtvisken> thanks
[01:42] <c_lisp> so on snayptic I type dvd::rip lavid?
[01:42] <ironcitadel> If someone is running Feisty from Herd5 will it upgrade to Beta with apt-get dist-upgrade?
[01:42] <xtknight> d1gital, maybe this will be more helpful http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=110931
[01:42] <c_lisp> and it decodes and turns to avis easy?
[01:42] <LjL> ironcitadel: sure.
[01:42] <Darwin> wat's a good way to convert rmvb format files to ogg theora?
[01:43] <xtknight> Darwin, mencoder
[01:43] <Death_Sargent> thanks
[01:43] <xtknight> or perhaps VideoLAN client
[01:43] <Mirth> How can I make an Application start on Startup?
[01:43] <lavid> c_lisp: search for dvdrip, and yes, it's simple
[01:43] <LjL> !startup > mirth    (mirth, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:43] <xtknight> Mirth, edit your gnome session properties
[01:43] <TheCaptain> So it's definitely a resolution issue?
[01:43] <ironcitadel> Great, LjL.  I guess I'm up to date then <grin>
[01:43] <xtknight> Mirth, startup of pc or startup of your GNOME/user acct
[01:43] <xtknight> TheCaptain, no
[01:43] <gikid> wow
[01:43] <TheCaptain> I see
[01:43] <awenasidilisome> insolit: sourceforge.net is what i remember
[01:43] <xtknight> TheCaptain, use safe graphics mode?
[01:43] <LjL> ironcitadel: guess what, it will even update to the final release the same way ;)
[01:44] <gikid> i just realized how huge this channel
[01:44] <awenasidilisome> insolit: right"
[01:44] <TheCaptain> I tried that. Same effect.
[01:44] <awenasidilisome> right?*
[01:44] <Pelo> ugh ? http://www.linux-watch.com/news/NS5306151939.html
[01:44] <xtknight> TheCaptain, what video card?
[01:44] <ironcitadel> Is that great or what?
[01:44] <TheCaptain> xtknight: ATI Mobility radeon x1300
[01:44] <Mirth> xtknight, I think when I start up GNOME.
[01:44] <billy> how do I pm ubotu?
[01:44] <Komsip> jeez I was logged on to here first time i ever ran xchat on ubuntu... is this on freenode?
[01:44] <xtknight> Mirth, system->preferences->sessions---->startup tab
[01:44] <Komsip> I didn't choose to go here
[01:44] <xtknight> Mirth, add a command, and you cant put any sudo cmds in there by the way
[01:45] <ironcitadel> Komsip  Yes, this is freenode
[01:45] <xtknight> TheCaptain, some details on your platform?  pc/laptop, motherboard, chipset, cpu, etc?
[01:45] <Flare183> TheCaptain:>happened to me once but I changed the resolution and it fixed it so...
[01:45] <Komsip> thanks
[01:45] <Mirth> Ah, okay, will try that

[01:45] <ComputerMagic> how would i update gnome?!?!
[01:45] <xtknight> ComputerMagic, same way you update all other progs
[01:45] <TheCaptain> xtknight: It's a Acer Travelmate 8204WLMI, dual core. Let me grab the specs
[01:45] <ComputerMagic> well update gnome to the most current version
[01:45] <Flare183> !update | ComputerMagic
[01:45] <ubotu> ComputerMagic: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:46] <xtknight> ComputerMagic, synaptic/update-manager do that for you already.  you have the latest version
[01:46] <Insolit> awenasidilisome: http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/
[01:46] <lontra> ComputerMagic: don't use so many !?
[01:46] <chump> i need some help with evince a pdf reader  when i try to print from it it make my printer crash .. i got a samsung ml-1610 mono laser printer and it only do error when i try to print
[01:46] <Flare183> does anybody know how to play SPC files without having to use XMMS?
[01:47] <xtknight> Flare183, what's SPC?
[01:47] <kondor101> 7.04 problem,  i am used to 4 desktops, now i have 2, how do i add more?!
[01:47] <TheCaptain> xtknight. turns out its a mobility radeon x1600
[01:47] <chump> but i can print from firefox without any problem
[01:47] <awenasidilisome> insolit: thanks for that
[01:47] <ComputerMagic> xtknight:well the gnome site has a newer version or can i not upgrade in that way..
[01:47] <penguinlord> ubu works
[01:47] <xtknight> kondor101, right click on the two and goto propeties for that panel
[01:47] <penguinlord> yeyea
[01:47] <Flare183> xtknight:> it's a type of sound dump from the Super Nintendo Video Game system
[01:47] <kondor101> xtknight:  that was easy lol,  thanks
[01:47] <xtknight> ComputerMagic, you can't really upgrade that way.  it's not a gnome supported by ubuntu 6.10 yet, not officially
[01:47] <Darwin> What's a good, affordable router supported well by Ubuntu?
[01:48] <xtknight> Darwin, any tcp/ip
[01:48] <Flare183> and without having to use Audio Overload as well
[01:48] <Mr> hello :) can someone please tell me how could I download files via SSH ? thank you
[01:48] <ComputerMagic> xtknight: but is there an unoffical way of getting it
[01:48] <lontra> ComputerMagic: you'll need to upgrade to feisty
[01:48] <lontra> ComputerMagic: or compile it yourself
[01:48] <xtknight> ComputerMagic, you can compile it.  but i wouldnt recommend it unless you know how
[01:48] <TheCaptain> xtknight: any other ideas?
[01:48] <Mirth> How do I run gDesklets from the terminal?
[01:48] <Slart> Darwin: "supported router"? real routers don't need support from the os.. if a router needs a driver it's a bad router...
[01:48] <awenasidilisome> insolit: got it downloaded and i'm looking at the files
[01:48] <xtknight> Mirth, gdesklets<tab>?
[01:49] <ironcitadel> Mr. - What you want is scp "secure-copy"
[01:49] <Mirth> What is the <tab> xtknight?
[01:49] <xtknight> Flare183, hmm is SPC a container or a codec then?
[01:49] <xtknight> Mirth, autocomplete
[01:49] <Flare183> mirth:>create another launcher and in the command line type in:    gnome-terminail
[01:49] <lontra> gnome 2.18 isn't too much different than 2.16 imo
[01:49] <penguinlord> anyone know of any free internet
[01:49] <penguinlord> idc how slow
[01:49] <xtknight> gnome is never any different
[01:49] <xtknight> never seems like it anyway
[01:49] <penguinlord> i need it to dl packets for ubu
[01:49] <lontra> xtknight: i agree
[01:49] <xtknight> so .16,.18 what's the diff
[01:50] <Flare183> xtknight:> yeah it's in the "bad" or "ugly" part of gstreamer but i can't get it to work
[01:50] <Mr> ironcitadel i'm runing edgy i have succesfully instaled ssh and i see i have to install scp now. thanks; i might bug you with some questions because i'm kinda new :) thanks again
[01:50] <Slart> Darwin: most routers have some kind of web-interface for configuration.. that only requires a web-reader to use.. if the router-makers aren't royally retarded they make it usable with firefox or similar..
[01:50] <Flare183> xtknight:> not gstreamer but the codec itself
[01:50] <lontra> xtknight: very little...very little difference between 2.14 too
[01:50] <ironcitadel> No prob, amigo!
[01:50] <xtknight> Flare183, hmm. gstreamer-properties maybe?  there's some gstreamer seutp
[01:50] <TheCaptain> Alright, I'll try playing with the resolution and come back
[01:50] <xtknight> TheCaptain, hmm how?
[01:50] <Flare183> thecaptain:> good luck
[01:50] <xtknight> TheCaptain, use the alternate install cd if all else fails
[01:51] <Flare183> i did you have to know your desktop very well through
[01:51] <xtknight> TheCaptain, then you can stop gdm, edit xorg, fix it, and have a working system
[01:51] <xtknight> !alternate | TheCaptain
[01:51] <ubotu> TheCaptain: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[01:51] <sdrev> I use the bookmark bar in firefox to access my bookmarks. in windows i was able to drag the bookmarks around to organize them, but I don't seem to do that in unbuntu. is this a gnome limitation, or is there some way i can work around this?
[01:51] <lontra> the new human openoffice theme in feisty is real sweet
[01:51] <Flare183> or use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:51] <lontra> openoffice has needed an overhaul for a while
[01:52] <gnomefreak> sdrev: please file a bug and subscribe me to it
[01:52] <Slart> sdrev: I can't do that either.. I can still drag pages *to* the bookmark field.. but I can't move the ones that are there
[01:52] <sdrev> gnomefreak: how do i file a bug?
[01:52] <gnomefreak> !bugs
[01:52] <ubotu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots

[01:52] <gnomefreak> Flare183: no launchpad
[01:52] <Flare183> oh nevermind
[01:52] <gnomefreak> we dont use bugzilla anymore atleast since breezy
[01:53] <sdrev> gnomefreak: and how do i subscribe you to it?
[01:53] <ironcitadel> I've been able to move bookmarks around all I want in Firefox.  Just click on bookmarks, go to the top and click on manage bookmarks.
[01:53] <Flare183> oh snap i had better switch then i got edgy
[01:53] <gnomefreak> sdrev: file bug and give me bug number ill do the rest
[01:53] <sdrev> gnomefreak: ok
[01:53] <Slart> ironcitadel: in windows you could just move them around without opening the bookmark manager.. just drag from the bookmark field
[01:53] <commando> How do I add printer at the command line?
[01:53] <gnomefreak> sdrev: please give as much info on how to reproduce as you can and what ubuntu version and ff version
[01:53] <xtknight> commando, gnome-cups-add
[01:53] <pagan0ne> ok, problem 2, where do i direct a program to get input from my mic at?
[01:54] <MrPotbut> what filesystem should i use for ubuntu?
[01:54] <xtknight> MrPotbut, ext3
[01:54] <ironcitadel> Hmm.  Sounds like a better idea.  I never tried it in Linux ff.
[01:54] <Flare183> ext3
[01:54] <MrPotbut> thank you xtknight
[01:54] <Flare183> yeah
[01:54] <commando> ext3 should be fine
[01:54] <Slart> MrPotbut: I use reiserFS.. I with I didn't.. go with ext3
[01:54] <sdrev> gnomefreak: the bug occurs in both edgy and fiesty, should i file 2 reports, or just one?
[01:54] <xtknight> xfs for virtual machines and big files.  ext3 for everyone else
[01:54] <Slart> MrPotbut: *I wish I didn't
[01:54] <awenasidilisome> insolit: i can't get bcm43xx-fwcutter to work

[01:55] <gnomefreak> sdrev: just one
[01:55] <Flare183> on the terminal
[01:55] <ironcitadel> Nope, it doesn't work.  You have to go to the "Organize Bookmarks" page.  Sigh.
[01:55] <awenasidilisome> didn't do anything visible
[01:55] <Flare183> try sudomodprobe bcm43xx
[01:55] <Flare183> try sudo modprobe bcm43xx sorry
[01:55] <awenasidilisome> did the same thing
[01:56] <Flare183> crap
[01:56] <awenasidilisome> well how do i get the driver where there supposed to be is what i should ask
[01:56] <Flare183> can't help anymore on that since that fixed my problem with my card
[01:56] <xtknight> awenasidilisome, what does 'sudo modprobe bcm43xx' say
[01:56] <Flare183> ndiswrapper
[01:56] <Flare183> bcm5wl
[01:56] <Flare183> something like that
[01:56] <awenasidilisome> it just brings it back to the user@computername :~$

[01:57] <Haekke> Hello. I have a netcard problem. When my computer boots up the lights on the netcard are on but as soon as it starts loading grub it turns off .. never happened before.. what do I do?
[01:57] <xtknight> Mirth, there should be an entry that says default or something like that
[01:58] <Mirth> "makeactive"?
[01:58] <Mirth> Is that the same as default?
[01:58] <xtknight> any way of installing ubuntu from the livecd, other than ubiquity which is crashing for me ?  (Feisty but i assume there are default chroot install steps)
[01:58] <Slart> Mirth: hmm.. don't think so
[01:58] <Mirth> Oh..
[01:58] <MrPotbut> do i have to make a swap partition myself?
[01:58] <Death_Sargent> hpram prevents me from logging in

[01:58] <xtknight> MrPotbut, sudo swapon /block/device
[01:59] <Death_Sargent> how do i remove from run level
[01:59] <xtknight> MrPotbut, to make it permenant put swap in fstab
[01:59] <Slart> Mirth: ## default num
[01:59] <Slart> # Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0, and
[01:59] <Slart> # the entry number 0 is the default if the command is not used.
[01:59] <Slart> Mirth: mine says "default 0"

[02:02] <Slart> rocco_: it worked?
[02:02] <DARKGuy> Hey people :). Anybody knows how to change the gnome clock to a 12-hour time format? all it has is "24 hours", "UNIX time" and "UTC" :(
[02:02] <Slart> guess so
[02:02] <Flare183> he just quit on you
[02:02] <xtknight> DARKGuy, gee that's odd, mine has 12 hour listed
[02:02] <jeff__> hey all, is there a Ubuntu equivalent of "Crtl-alt-delete"? I get system freezes once and a while, and must completely reboot. Anyway to just shut down whatever the offending application is?
[02:02] <Slart> DARKGuy: mine has "24 hour" and "12 hour" too...
[02:03] <xtknight> DARKGuy, right click time, and preferences?
[02:03] <gotp> can anybody help me ?
[02:03] <gotp> can't update anymore
[02:03] <DARKGuy> xtknight, Slart: Ubuntu edgy? =/
[02:03] <Mirth> So like...
[02:03] <xtknight> jeff__, control alt backspace to kill X
[02:03] <gnomefreak> jeff__: ctrol+alt+delete will reboot your pc
[02:03] <awenasidilisome> ctrl alt del always works for me
[02:03] <xtknight> DARKGuy, feisty here but pretty sure edgy has it
[02:03] <ardchoille> jeff__: xkill  or  gnome-system-monitor
[02:03] <DARKGuy> xtknight: I'm right there
[02:03] <Pelo> jeff__,  ctrl + alt + backspace  will restart  Xwindow
[02:03] <Slart> DARKGuy: I'm running edgy, yes
[02:03] <Mirth> If it says "default		0", and my top choice in GRUB is Vista, that is 0?
[02:03] <Flare183> control alt backspace helps me most of the time
[02:03] <Mirth> And Ubuntu is 1?
[02:03] <Slart> Mirth: I think so
[02:03] <DARKGuy> xtknight, Slart: Weird... I'll upload a screenshot o.o
[02:04] <awenasidilisome> where can i find the the directory for drivers
[02:04] <xtknight> awenasidilisome, /lib/modules

[02:04] <hiways85> anyone can tell me how to install bootscreen for ubuntu i deleted it

[02:05] <Mr> ironcitadel thanks alot :)
[02:05] <Flare183> Pelo:> i'm not perfect
[02:05] <awenasidilisome> i foudn where the bcm43xx drivers are now
[02:05] <Slart> DARKGuy: I have "show seconds", "show date", "Use UTC" and "24 hour"/"12 hour" in my preferences..
[02:05] <awenasidilisome> but i still need to move the ones i just got to there
[02:05] <hiways85> i meant the whole boot process, sorry
[02:05] <xtknight> 12hr,24hr,unix time,net time here
[02:05] <Haekke> anybody??
[02:05] <DARKGuy> Slart: Same here, except the "12 hour" menu item :/
[02:05] <Slart> DARKGuy: you're using the default clock, right?
[02:05] <cafuego_> awenasidilisome: You need the firmware files as well as the drivers.
[02:05] <hiways85> now it just login to xp without any options
[02:05] <DARKGuy> Slart: how so?
[02:05] <DARKGuy> Slart: you mean the default gnome panel clock applet?
[02:06] <ironcitadel> Mr - Did you include the "to" directory in your command line?  for example "." without the quotes for "here"?
[02:06] <Slart> DARKGuy: just so you're not running "DARKGuys own, homemade clock application" =)
[02:06] <hiways85> i deleted it but now i can't remember, did that few months ago
[02:06] <xtknight> how do i force an NTP time update?
[02:06] <DARKGuy> Slart: Lol xD... nah, I'd make one to show 12-hour time format if I could 
[02:06] <awenasidilisome> i got bcm43xx-fwcutter.1, fwcutter.c fwcutter.h fwcutter_list.h

[02:06] <Mr> irconcitadel ummm No ...
[02:06] <awenasidilisome> none of those seem right to me
[02:06] <ironcitadel> Mr - That could possibly be the hangup.
[02:06] <Slart> DARKGuy: what timezone? perhaps it does sometihng stupid like assuming americans don't want 24-hour clock?

[02:07] <mikebeecham> Hi guys...been having some problems getting twinview run as a clone on my TV.  I've now sorted it but want to know if I can configure it to play videos at Full screen on the Clone?
[02:07] <jexdawg13> i just used synaptic to install gtk-gnutella. its in my menu bar now... and i click it... and nothing happens. wha?
[02:07] <DARKGuy> xD
[02:07] <Slart> DARKGuy: hehe.. ok, scratch that idea then =)
[02:07] <joseito> gnomefreak ?
[02:08] <DARKGuy> Slart: Hehe xD - I thought people knew we use a 12-hour time format D:
[02:08] <gnomefreak> joseito: ?
[02:08] <tarlerulz> it there a way with the installer cd just copy of the os and not movie and other stuff I have on it
[02:08] <DARKGuy> That's it, I'm gonna get a binary clock now (j/k)
[02:08] <joseito> DARKGuy you're venezuelan? :O
[02:08] <bruenig> !english | tarlerulz
[02:08] <ubotu> tarlerulz: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are english only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[02:08] <ironcitadel> tarletulz - then log in as root then do "useradd me" then "passwd me" and you should be reinstalled.
[02:08] <DARKGuy> joseito: I am :P
[02:08] <awenasidilisome> if the fwcutter are the newest version shoudln't that mean the drivers are done?
[02:08] <joseito> DARKGuy good me too
[02:08] <joseito> You know about ubuntu-ve?
[02:08] <Slart> DARKGuy: what version of the clock-thingy?
[02:09] <DARKGuy> joseito: What we're doing talking in english then? XD... yes, mostly empty there =/
[02:09] <tarlerulz> I am on the live/installer cd right now
[02:09] <Slart> DARKGuy: I have 2.16.1
[02:09] <DARKGuy> Slart: 2.16.1
[02:09] <hiways85> music sounds much cleaner on ubuntu than on xp
[02:09] <tarlerulz> would reinstalling write over my movies and stuff
[02:09] <xtknight> DARKGuy, here lets reinstall the cloc kapplet
[02:09] <penguinlord> i wish ubu had package cds
[02:09] <penguinlord> like mepis
[02:09] <penguinlord> with like 100s of apps on cds
[02:09] <Zues_62> how to i change the Resolution in KDE
[02:09] <penguinlord> and it has 3
[02:09] <xtknight> penguinlord, they have dvds
[02:10] <DARKGuy> xtknight: okay, apt-get remove --purge and then install again?
[02:10] <ironcitadel> tarlerulz - No.  But if you're nervous, copy your home directory to "home.bak" just in case.
[02:10] <bruenig> penguinlord, kind of a stupid thing anyways. Applications get old fast.
[02:10] <joseito> DARKGuy...besides...I not speak english very good lol
[02:10] <joseito> hehe
[02:10] <michael117> I have 1.5GB of RAM but my computer still feels kind of slow when I have firefox, amarok, gaim, and other apps open... is there any way to optimize ubuntu to fully utilize my 1.5GB and other ways to speed it up altogether?
[02:10] <DARKGuy> joseito: I imagine :P
[02:10] <Zues_62> does anyone knw
[02:10] <Haekke> Hello. I have a netcard problem. When my computer boots up the lights on the netcard are on but as soon as it starts loading grub it turns off .. never happened before.. what do I do? Anybody???
[02:10] <ardchoille> bruenig: Indeed
[02:10] <xtknight> DARKGuy, sudo dpkg --purge --force-all gnome-panel && killall gnome-panel && sudo apt-get install gnome-panel && gnome-panel&
[02:10] <joseito> DARKGuy, but, Why you dont stay on ubuntu-ve?
[02:10] <DARKGuy> o.o
[02:11] <xtknight> DARKGuy, i guess, so long as u dont care about losing some gnome panel things.  though i just did it a second ago and it kept my toolbar arrangements
[02:11] <DARKGuy> joseito: too few people, I like places where there's lots of people... that gives more chances to get an answer - and they're split up in two channels, I disagree with that so I feel more "at home" here xD
[02:11] <DARKGuy> xtknight: uh, alright, lemme try o,o;
[02:11] <xtknight> !ask
[02:11] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:12] <Mirth> Pitivi doesn't work for me.
[02:12] <joseito> DARKGuy hahaha but ubuntu-ve is our locoteam...
[02:12] <Mirth> How do I uninstall it, so I can reinstall it?
[02:12] <Haekke> Hello. I have a netcard problem. When my computer boots up the lights on the netcard are on but as soon as it starts loading grub it turns off .. never happened before.. what do I do? Anybody???
[02:12] <ironcitadel> Is it ok if I ask about permission to ask a question I want to ask, I'm asking?
[02:12] <gnomefreak> sdrev: do you know if it worked on 2.0.0.2? in edgy or feisty?
[02:13] <cables> !ask | ironcitadel
[02:13] <ubotu> ironcitadel: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:13] <xtknight> ironcitadel, we would rather you ask how to take over the world instead
[02:13] <DARKGuy> joseito: yeah, I know that :P
[02:13] <xtknight> or ask how to fix bug #1..
[02:13] <sdrev> gnomefreak: don't know, just set up ubuntu for the first time
[02:13] <gnomefreak> sdrev: ok ty ill look into it i assigned it to me
[02:13] <ironcitadel> Gotcha! <grin>
[02:13] <M4ri00sh> downloaded yesterday the 7.04 daily iso image alternate, installed, booted, and once i login into gnome 2 minutes later it freezes and i have to do manual reset ?? what the hell ??
[02:13] <jexdawg13> i just sudo apt-get updated and then sudo aptitude install gtk-gnutella. when i run it from terminal though, it says ANCIENT VERSION DETECTED.boo! what do i need to do to get the newest version?
[02:13] <xtknight> M4ri00sh, #ubuntu+1 channel for Feisty
[02:13] <joseito> DARKGuy also in April 28th the feistycitas...
[02:13] <sdrev> gnomefreak: thanks
[02:13] <penguinlord> lol
[02:13] <penguinlord> Z0MG
[02:14] <cables> M4ri00sh, it's a BETA.
[02:14] <gnomefreak> yw
[02:14] <cables> M4ri00sh, in addition, Feisty help is in #ubuntu+1
[02:14] <DARKGuy> joseito: oO where did you know that?
[02:14] <Haekke> Hello. I have a netcard problem. When my computer boots up the lights on the netcard are on but as soon as it starts loading grub it turns off .. never happened before.. what do I do? Anybody???
[02:15] <Haekke> anybody??
[02:15] <joseito> DARKGuy We work hard to do it
[02:15] <joseito> You're guest :)
[02:15] <joseito> What do you live?
[02:15] <ironcitadel> Haekke - do "dmesg|less" and check out what's happening during your boot sequence.
[02:15] <joseito> Where*
[02:15] <Askar> can someone confirm that it can harm flashmemorys when using them as swap, e.g writing to them very quickly???
[02:15] <DARKGuy> joseito: Heh, thanks XD... capital city, where's the event? o.o
[02:15] <M4ri00sh> xtknight: thank you :)
[02:16] <ardchoille> DARKGuy , joseito Please take that to #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:16] <joseito> Good...The event actually I dont know, but, I'll informate to you
[02:16] <xtknight> Askar, not that i know of.  i didnt know flash drives could be damaged by Writes
[02:16] <DARKGuy> ardchoille: kay, sorry 
[02:16] <xtknight> Askar, are you trying to pull off a Vista Readyboost or sometihng?
[02:16] <joseito> ardchoille sorry, DARKGuy you can enter to ubuntu-ve to talk about it
[02:16] <xtknight> it's not the same thing because readyboost is a cache not a page file
[02:16] <DARKGuy> joseito: sure, lemme try to fix my clock first >.<
[02:17] <Haekke> ironcitadel: what should I look after?
[02:17] <joseito> DARKGuy lol, but, what ubuntu you're running?
[02:17] <Askar>  xtknight: Yeah...it works but im afraid it will hurt my flashmemory..
[02:17] <micahcowan> Askar, most flash media will stop working after some (relatively large) number of writes.
[02:17] <DARKGuy> Slart, xtknight: Nope, I just tried the command you gave me and it still shows 24, UNIX and UTC =/
[02:17] <ironcitadel> Haekke - What you want to see is that your nic driver is loading and setting up "eth0"
[02:17] <DARKGuy> joseito: 6.10 up to date
[02:18] <Askar> micahcowan: do you think it would be hurt if used as swap?
[02:18] <joseito> DARKGuy good I'm running Feisty Beta is soo stable omg :S
[02:18] <micahcowan> I'm not an expert in that area, but personally I wouldn't use it as swap: likely to drastically reduce its lifespan.
[02:18] <micahcowan> Askar ^^
[02:18] <Haekke> ironcitadel: sohuld I just do it in a terminal? It just pastes a lot of numbers?.. should it be at boot time?
[02:18] <jason_> how do you upgrade to fiesty?
[02:18] <awenasidilisome> out for now
[02:18] <Slart> DARKGuy: UNIX, utc and 24.... and the preferences box doesn't have the 24/12 selection box...
[02:19] <Askar> micahcowan: ok ill skip it then, thanks
[02:19] <DARKGuy> joseito: cool ^^
[02:19] <DARKGuy> Slart: Nope
[02:19] <ardchoille> !upgrade | jason_
[02:19] <ubotu> jason_: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:19] <DARKGuy> Here's a screenie
[02:19] <Rohinton> Askar: There is a limited number of writes the memory can take, it probably in the small print :-)
[02:19] <ironcitadel> Haekke - Right.  Open a terminal or go to a console screen "ctrl-alt-F2".  The "less" part allows you to srcoll forward and backward
[02:19] <DARKGuy> Slart, xtknight: http://img481.imageshack.us/img481/5348/screen01gc1.png
[02:20] <ironcitadel> Er "scroll", that is.
[02:20] <alucard> ants are like linux
[02:21] <lontra> jason_: gksduo update-manager -d
[02:21] <Slart> DARKGuy: well.. it looks the same as mine.. exactly.. but in that 24-hour box I have "12 hour", "24 hour", "UNIX time" and "Internet time"
[02:21] <ironcitadel> (Oops.  I forgot to tell him about ctrl-alt-F7 to get back.  Drat, I hate when that happens.)
[02:21] <DARKGuy> Slart: could it be because you have a different timezone and someone forgot to add the 12-hour setting in the es_VE locale or something ?
[02:21] <lontra> jason_: i meant gksudo
[02:22] <Slart> DARKGuy: well. have you tried changing your timezone?
[02:22] <DARKGuy> Slart: not yet, I had a hard time when I played around with the time and sudo didn't want to work back then =/
[02:22] <jason_> lontra: thanks
[02:22] <Slart> DARKGuy: I just changed to Venezuala time and I still have to 12 hour option
[02:23] <DARKGuy> Slart: ... crazy o.O!
[02:23] <DARKGuy> Slart: I'll try changing timezones to see if that helps =/
[02:23] <Slart> DARKGuy: I'm going to do some googling to see if this is a known problem.. I'll be back
[02:23] <Haekke> ironcitadel: it says eth0 identified chip ... eth0 auto-negotiated..
[02:24] <xtknight> DARKGuy,  i have no idea
[02:24] <DARKGuy> Slart: Okay, I tried searching info in google about this but couldn't find much info, or maybe I don't know the correct keywords - I greatly appreciate the help
[02:24] <Haekke> ironcitadel: eth0: no ipv6 routers present
[02:24] <DARKGuy> xtknight: me either =P
[02:24] <ironcitadel> Haekke - sounds good.  It's loading the nic driver and assigning it to eth0.  Next ...
[02:25] <tha_toadman> can anyone here assist with LIRC for Ubuntu 6.10?
[02:25] <ironcitadel> H - do "ifconfig" and look for "inet address" and you should have your ip number for your network.
[02:25] <Mirth> Does anyone know if the Pitivi program in the repository even works?
[02:25] <Mirth> It won't even start for me...

[02:25] <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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:26] <Haekke> ironcitadel: realtek  bla bla bla driver v 1.02.. relased.... link status : not linked....irq:201...
[02:26] <Slart> DARKGuy: looks like this might be an old bug.. spanish and italian language installations don't get the 12 hour clock.. have you tried setting it to english?
[02:26] <Slart> DARKGuy: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/langpack-locales/+bug/51255
[02:26] <jexdawg13> when i run frostwire (latest version) it will open for about ten seconds then close. heres the pastebin of when i run it in terminal: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12689/ - please help, because gtk-gnutella won't work for me either :(
[02:27] <rendo> Tried mounting an ISO and got this message ioctl: LOOP_CLR_FD: Device or resource busy.  What exactly does it mean, google didn't help.
[02:27] <ironcitadel> Hmm...  Sounds like the nic isn't working.  I don't know what else to tell you except maybe try a different nic.
[02:27] <tha_toadman> lirc anyone?
[02:27] <um_whoa> what nic are you having?
[02:28] <um_whoa> erm nic issue
[02:28] <Haekke> um_whoa: asking me?
[02:28] <ironcitadel> Those generic rtl's seem to be pretty darned good for cheapo cards.
[02:28] <DARKGuy> Slart: interesting, though I wonder why this hasn't been fixed yet... we're almost in April now :/ so adding the "am_pm" line that Emilio posts at the end would work o.o?
[02:28] <um_whoa> whoever is having one, and is it a desktop or a laptop
[02:28] <pewee> i bet it's called drivers because they are driving me crazy
[02:29] <Slart> DARKGuy: I have no idea.. if the fix was that easy they would have fixed it by now, surely
[02:29] <ironcitadel> In my opinion, they're better than some of the major brands.
[02:29] <pewee> anyone encountered freezes (only way out: hard reset) with 6.10 and those official nvidia drivers?
[02:29] <pewee> i'm running on a 8800GTS if that helps
[02:29] <Haekke> um_whoa: its a brand new desktop... worked fine earler
[02:29] <whta> hi, i'm having issues with extremely long logout times when logging out/ctrl alt backspace'ing
[02:29] <um_whoa> and you can't what connect to the net using pppoe?
[02:29] <pewee> I could cry. nv don't work with 8800 anymore and nvidia freezes. arrg.
[02:29] <harry_> is there a command line command that tells me all of my hardware?
[02:29] <DARKGuy> Slart: Well, time to hack some files XD, how do I see what's my current locale? I can't remember the command x.x
[02:30] <Haekke> um_whoa: nope. my net card turns its lights off at kernel boot.. so I cant use it
[02:30] <Slart> DARKGuy: there is a menu-thingy.. in either administration or preferences menu
[02:30] <Mirth> Anyone ever got Pitivi to work?
[02:30] <jrib> harry_: lspci or lshw
[02:30] <um_whoa> are you trying to make a pppoe connection?
[02:31] <Haekke> ironcitadel: yeah maybe it isnt working.. just wierd there are lights on at boot
[02:31] <budluva> can someone please help me, i cant get edgy to detect my usb harddrive, its plugged in, turned on, edgy didnt detect it on boot, but it shows up in lsusb, should it not automount itselft?
[02:31] <EkToBoT> hi folks i need the terminal command to edit the boot up menu.lst? can anyone help??
[02:31] <Haekke> um_whoa: .. its just connected to a switch and at kernel load it suddenly turns off
[02:31] <ironcitadel> Haekke - stranger things have been known to happen.  You should have been around when we used coax for networks.  Wow!
[02:32] <TheCaptain> I'm back with limited success :(
[02:32] <xtknight> EkToBoT, gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:32] <harry_> it's prolly not a good idea to run Feisty on an ATI RAGE 2, right?
[02:32] <um_whoa>  vi menu.lst
[02:32] <EkToBoT> thanks
[02:32] <xtknight> harry_, why not?
[02:32] <xtknight> harry_, not for beryl but for everything else it should be fine
[02:32] <DARKGuy> Slart: Language support? it's downloading some needed language packs now, hope that fixes it or else I'm gonna go editing some files in /usr/share/i18n/locales :P
[02:32] <harry_> well, it's kinda old. it only has 4MB of vRAM
[02:32] <n33o> Hello, can someone please help me, i have been trying to get my tv card to work for days now, it has drivers for Windows XP.. easy click and install... but i want to use linux.. because it is more up to date.. please someone help me out.. this is my card.. ... http://www.sunsway.com.hk/photo/tv-fm.jpg  I need to get it working .. its a phillips chipset.
[02:32] <TheCaptain> xtknight: I tried every possible resolution and i tried loading it with live vga=771 but nothing is working. Also ctrl alt f12 leads to just a blinking cursor and no prompt
[02:32] <Haekke> ironcitadel: hah yeah I remember those.. they vere awful.. had to block non used ends etc.
[02:32] <the_rampant> Budluva ---- there is an option in system / preferences / removable drives and media preferences
[02:32] <xtknight> harry_, ah didnt realize it was THAT old :P
[02:32] <tha_toadman> xtknight: vim /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:33] <tha_toadman> or vi - whatever
[02:33] <Slart> DARKGuy: yup. .that's what I just did.. I'm a bit disappointed that everything didn't turn into spanish.. perhaps a reboot is needed for that
[02:33] <um_whoa> Haejje, i sent you a private message
[02:33] <xtknight> TheCaptain, hmm, odd.  did you try the 'acpi=verbose irqpoll' kernel options?
[02:33] <budluva> the_rampant, yeah it all looks good in there
[02:33] <xtknight> maybe they will give you some debug msges or fix irq problems
[02:33] <um_whoa> erm haekke that is
[02:33] <n33o> Hello, can someone please help me, i have been trying to get my tv card to work for days now, it has drivers for Windows XP.. easy click and install... but i want to use linux.. because it is more up to date.. please someone help me out.. this is my card.. ... http://www.sunsway.com.hk/photo/tv-fm.jpg  I need to get it working .. its a phillips chipset.
[02:34] <budluva> the_rampant, still doesn't show up though
[02:34] <bighouse> hi can someone tell me how or where to get the Gstreamer plugin for mp3 for RhythmBox?
[02:34] <TheCaptain> xtknight, not yet. I'll try that next.
[02:34] <Haekke> um_whoa: didnt get one.. plz check again
[02:34] <EkToBoT> xtknight: why would it look like i have 2 versions installed
[02:34] <um_whoa> i just sent you another one
[02:35] <ironcitadel> n33o - do a "dmesg|less" and check to see if it's being recognized on bootup.  Look to see if "bttv" is loading or not.
[02:35] <DARKGuy> Slart: me too :( well, if anything, I'll submit the fix if I can find it - thanks for the tip and the time, you too xtknight :)
[02:35] <Slart> DARKGuy: you're welcome.. hope it works out for you
[02:35] <Haekke> hmm wierd.. I just sent you one aswell.. seems like something is wrong...  /join #haekkenetworkerror and talk there??
[02:36] <DARKGuy> Slart: thanks :)
[02:36] <harry_> I'm trying to install Feisty Beta on my good machine via the updater , {I'm on a sandbox right now} and it is asking me "Replace the customized configuration file '/etc/login.defs' ? Should I? What effect will that have?
[02:36] <n33o> ironcitadel>> it is being recognised
[02:36] <um_whoa> hold on, i just realized something about my nic card  that isn't cool at all
[02:36] <um_whoa> brb
[02:36] <flickernoise718> hi
[02:36] <bighouse> im on Edgy 2.11
[02:36] <Haekke> ok
[02:36] <ironcitadel> n33o - ok, do "lsmod" and make sure bttv and bt878 are being associated.
[02:37] <n33o> what are bttv? bt878
[02:37] <lontra> harry_: i would just select the default (which is to keep it as it is)
[02:37] <xtknight> n33o, they are kernel modules, aka. drivers
[02:37] <jason_> anyone know of any good sites that have ubuntu podcasts about ubuntu itself?
[02:37] <ironcitadel> n33o - Most TV cards are built on the Brooktree chipset and the generic BT chip is the bt878.  Those are the linux drivers
[02:38] <flickernoise718> I need help with getting some radeon drivers installed for ubuntu 6.10
[02:38] <michael117> What are the best linux podcasts in general?
[02:38] <harry_> What's new in Feisty, anyways?
[02:38] <Ryan__> where is the apache's configuration file located?
[02:38] <bruenig> !feisty | harry_
[02:38] <ubotu> harry_: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007.

[02:39] <whta> hi, i'm having issues with extremely long logout times when logging out/ctrl alt backspace'ing
[02:39] <jason_> nobody does ubuntu podcasts?

[02:40] <whta> bruening: well logging out and restarting x take forever
[02:40] <michael117> bruenig: Yeah, that's a bug in xgl, I believe
[02:40] <asdfasdffdas> hey, I'm installing ubuntu, but the installer wont see my partitions. It only sees /dev/sda. However, if I fdisk as root I can see the partitions perfectly, is there a way to get the installer to see my partitions?

[02:43] <jbwan> my NICs are setting to ipv6 and not picking up a ipv4 address
[02:43] <jrib> zany_zeb1a_: pastebin full error, and 'apt-cache policy BROKEN_PACKAGE'
[02:43] <jbwan> any ideas?
[02:43] <wilo> bruenig: or you could show off and say that lol
[02:43] <TheCaptai1> xtknight: I'm afraid I have no idea what all that means.
[02:43] <whta> well is it normal for it to take a LONG TIME restarting X?
[02:44] <xtknight> TheCaptai1, im afraid i dont either
[02:44] <jrib> whta: long time =?
[02:44] <TheCaptai1> :(
[02:44] <coulix> hi , I ve got a problem with my ubuntu with fakeraid , the boot hangs , this is the last line before it hangs: drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c:v2.6:USB HID Core driver
[02:44] <bruenig> whta, try just logging out by going to the menus, how long does that take
[02:44] <pewee> anyone using a 8800 here?
[02:44] <whta> jrib: long time = several minutes, sometimes to the point where it needs to launch an "alternate greeter program"
[02:44] <xtknight> TheCaptai1, umm all i can suggest is google
[02:44] <pewee> GeForce 8800GTS or 8800GTX
[02:44] <jrib> whta: no, that's not normal.  How are you attempting to restart X?
[02:45] <TheCaptai1> thanks anyway xtknight
[02:45] <xtknight> TheCaptai1, not sure what to do for irq freezes but maybe ##linux would have a better idea
[02:45] <whta> jrib: ctrl alt backspace
[02:45] <xtknight> TheCaptai1, as far as i know, the firmware for APIC/irq on your motherboard is buggy.  or linux is buggy.
[02:45] <whta> bruening: logging out takes just as long. though restarting or shutting down takes little time
[02:45] <xtknight> TheCaptai1, i suggest trying other distros and seeing if they work perhaps.  or, Feisty
[02:45] <neil> bruenig, wilo: the sudo update command didnt change anything..
[02:45] <neil> irc still opens in konv, but word doe sopen firefox..
[02:45] <TheCaptai1> I'll give it a try. Thanks xtknight.
[02:45] <jrib> whta: does it happen with a fresh new user?
[02:45] <bruenig> neil, then it must be in the preferences of the konversation application
[02:46] <neil> yeah.. im searching, but not much luck
[02:46] <whta> jrib: i haven't tried that..
[02:46] <pewee> !8800
[02:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 8800 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:46] <whta> i'm the only user on this machine
[02:46] <jbwan> anyone who can assist with ipw2200 wireless problem?
[02:46] <pewee> 8(
[02:46] <wilo> neil: did you try the document test i told you?
[02:46] <jrib> whta: trying would help you troubleshoot
[02:46] <neil> wilo: yea, word opens with firefox :)
[02:46] <um_whoa> sorry, i forgot to use the -p switch for tcpdump and i was running in promiscous mode
[02:46] <whta> jrib: ok, i'll do that
[02:46] <wilo> neil: then it has to be a setting within your irc
[02:47] <wilo> what irc are you using?
[02:47] <whta> ALTHOUGH, jrib, ctrl alt backspacing on the gnome splash screen takes just as long
[02:47] <um_whoa> haekkem still around?
[02:47] <neil> wilo: konversation
[02:48] <Black^Dragon> question, is there a program, or package, that would assist me in writing, and viewing pearl scripts??
[02:48] <jrib> whta: did it always do this?
[02:48] <um_whoa> perl nor pearl
[02:48] <whta> jrib: i believe so.
[02:48] <dfeesd> Installer still wont see partitions, I can see them through fdisk, need help
[02:48] <tung> How come my volume control is no loser OSS, but ALSA?
[02:48] <bruenig> not not nor
[02:48] <Black^Dragon> sorry, bad spelling
[02:48] <cafuego_> voodoo is useful for perl.
[02:48] <n33o> If this card... http://www.sunsway.com.hk/products/tv-fm.html is not listed in the drivers list and comes up as generic... how do i configure it to work?
[02:48] <sigix> Black^Dragon: install eclipse (then install e-p-i-c plugin)
[02:48] <neil> wilo: found it :)
[02:48] <wilo> neil: would/could you change your irc client then?
[02:48] <wilo> neil: was it a setting?
[02:48] <neil> it obv. defaults to konqueror, which i didnt used to have
[02:49] <neil> theres a box that says 'use custom web browser'
[02:49] <wilo> hehehe
[02:49] <neil> after installing konqueror, you obviously need to set that up :)
[02:49] <wilo> thought so
[02:49] <neil> bit annoying! hehe.. thanks for the help
[02:49] <Black^Dragon> voodoo, or eclipse,, thank you cafuego and sigix
[02:49] <n33o> why is it that on windows its as easy as click click and nobody can come up with that for linux?
[02:49] <sigix> guys! I'm getting this error from apt-get:
[02:49] <sigix> E: The package armagetronad needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[02:49] <wilo> neil: no probs
[02:49] <sirkit> why is the older version of ubuntu going to be supported longer than the newest?
[02:49] <cables> n33o, linux is simpler. way simpler.
[02:49] <n33o> ok.. fix this... If this card... http://www.sunsway.com.hk/products/tv-fm.html is not listed in the drivers list and comes up as generic... how do i configure it to work?
[02:49] <sigix> after trying to install that game with an rpm and alien
[02:50] <bruenig> n33o, because drivers are closed
[02:50] <Zues_62> how do i change the Screen Resolution in KDE?
[02:50] <um_whoa>  /join #haekkenetworkerror
[02:51] <n33o> no .. there ARE drivers for it.. just .. you have to configure a bunch of crap for it to work... and i have no idea how.. whereas in windows its .. click click ... enter enter .. enter.
[02:51] <um_whoa> crap
[02:51] <Zues_62> does anyone know?
[02:51] <Haekke> is there a mysql database installed my default on edgy desktop?
[02:51] <Haekke> *by
[02:51] <jrib> whta: well I was going to suggest checking ~/.xsession-errors  but if it happens when you are at gdm I suppose there won't be anything useful there.  Any ideas on which logs to check?
[02:51] <bruenig> n33o, who do you think wrote that application? do you think it was windows or the driver manufacturer
[02:51] <jrib> Haekke: no
[02:52] <Haekke> ok how do I check if I have one installed?
[02:52] <um_whoa> haekke, i just entered your room, and asked you a question
[02:52] <sigix> anybody can private chat with me about an error I'm getting with a package?
[02:52] <JohnnyL> what kernel version is ubuntu 7.04?
[02:52] <n33o> what does that have to do with anything?
[02:52] <jrib> Haekke: do you want to install one?
[02:52] <KnowledgEngineer> someone know a wav splitter that create the files using the titles specified in the cue file??
[02:52] <n33o> I want to get my card working... They all have the same chipset/
[02:52] <Haekke> jrib: seems like I need one for mythtv
[02:52] <n33o> why cant there just be a generic click click and it works?
[02:52] <Haekke> jrib: so yep
[02:52] <bruenig> n33o, well then your complaint is not at linux, it is at the manufacturer. And your praise for windows is not praise for windows, it is praise for the manufacturer. In both instances you are misguided
[02:53] <n33o> I mean.. they did it for lan cards?
[02:53] <whta> jrib: i'm a massive noob still with linux so i wouldn't know what logs
[02:53] <jrib> Haekke: APT will automatically install mysql-server when you install mythtv
[02:53] <MrPotbut> where might i find a driver for my onboard network card?
[02:53] <n33o> yeah.. if im misguided regarding this issue then thanks.. but i still need to get my card working
[02:53] <bruenig> n33o, if you wish to waste time to create an application that will install one driver, feel free. But for the community as a whole, when you can just follow instructions, it is a terrible waste of time
[02:54] <n33o> ok
[02:54] <n33o> instruct me
[02:54] <Haekke> jrib: ok but it asked for my mysql password when I tried to install mythtv.. and I entered my root password but it doesnt work. is there another default password or how does it work??
[02:54] <bruenig> n33o, follow the instructions on that page. do they not work?
[02:54] <dfeesd> Installer still wont see partitions, I can see them through fdisk, need help

[02:57] <n33o> does that mean anything to anyone?
[02:57] <mojo> I know the Logitech bluetooth dongle "emulates" a USB kbd/mouse so that you can use the Kbd in BIOS, etc... I am wondering if Edgy has bluetooth drivers that are killing the dongle's kbd/mouse emulation maybe???
[02:57] <um_whoa>  i would use rm -i for a a file and rm -ir for a directory

[03:00] <zany_zeb2a_> every time i run a configure i am getting an error, i was told the solution to that error is to load build-essential. so after trying that i was prompted(as I have been any time i run apt-get or synaptic) to load f-prot, but f-prot will not compile, and will not allow build-essential to compile and then i cannot run a configure.

[03:07] <Gtyrs> Vista
[03:07] <Gtyrs> Ubuntu runs fine

[03:07] <Black^Dragon> ok, thank you, I'll check the site
[03:07] <sigix> You can install it by going into "Help->Software Update" once in eclipse
[03:08] <Flannel> Gtyrs: You'll probably have to search the interblags, or maybe try ##windows.  As that'd be a Vista issue.
[03:08] <sigix> then adding in the e-p-i-c repository
[03:08] <Black^Dragon> thank you very much sigix

[03:11] <Zues_62> what is xbuntu
[03:11] <Rohinton> is is a distro with xfce as it's UI.
[03:11] <mehow> google it
[03:11] <jrib> zany_zebra: apt-cache show f-prot-installer
[03:11] <Flannel> Rohinton, Zues_62, xubuntu, not xbuntu.
[03:12] <Zues_62> what is it
[03:12] <Flannel> !xubuntu
[03:12] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[03:12] <jrib> zany_zebra: do you want that installed?
[03:12] <xtknight> !xubuntu | Zues_62
[03:12] <ubotu> Zues_62: please see above
[03:12] <Rohinton> Flannel: noted.
[03:12] <tonyc__> Help  -- Edgy -- linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic fails to install
[03:12] <mehow> google it
[03:12] <zany_zebra> jrib: no, not really.
[03:12] <Zues_62> no im using Gnome and i installed KDe how do i remove kde and all its things it came with
[03:12] <tonyc__> i have with no result
[03:12] <Rohinton> ok - the package manager will help....
[03:12] <anirudha> Zues_62, There is also edubuntu specially catered towards students.
[03:12] <Flannel> Zues_62: You installed 'kubuntu-desktop'? or 'kde'?
[03:12] <jrib> zany_zebra: dpkg --configure -a    <-- does this return the error as well?
[03:13] <flodine> how long before feisty is final?
[03:13] <mehow> can anyone help me to mount my creative zen micro mp3 player?
[03:13] <tonyc__> yes
[03:13] <Zues_62> just KDE desktop
[03:13] <sigix> Zues_62: NOT TESTED: "sudo apt-cache search .+kde.+" will get you all packages... pipe this to a bash and/or perl script and remove them all
[03:13] <n33o> ok.. if my card saa7134 is detected as unknown generic does that mean that there is no driver for it?
[03:13] <Rohinton> Zues_62: I think you can start a session with Gnome and then use the package manager to remove the kde stuff.
[03:13] <Budtske> mehow: http://www.linux.ie/articles/tutorials/zen.php
[03:13] <mojo> flodine: sched 4 april release
[03:13] <jrib> Zues_62: how did you install kde exactly?
[03:13] <Zues_62> ya i rmoved KDE but it doesnt remove the appls
[03:13] <zany_zebra> jrib: it wants me to install f-prot
[03:13] <Zues_62> just thru package manager
[03:14] <smo> hi
[03:14] <Zues_62> it downloaded heaps of crap
[03:14] <jrib> Zues_62: what package manager?
[03:14] <Mirth> When I try to Reload Synaptic, I get this: "E: Malformed line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/edgy-universe.list (dist parse)
[03:14] <zany_zebra> jrib: do i wnat to run through that?
[03:14] <Mirth> E: The list of sources could not be read."
[03:14] <Mirth> Thoughts?
[03:14] <mojo> flodine: "for" not 4, :)
[03:14] <Zues_62> sypamtic
[03:14] <Budtske> mehow: you cant use it in console only
[03:14] <Zues_62> or how eva u spell it
[03:14] <Zues_62> the defualt one
[03:14] <Flannel> Zues_62: That's because "kde" is a metapackage.  You'll need to remove it's dependnecies.  I'd start with 'kde-core'  http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/kde/kde
[03:14] <smo> what s the best runlevel to add a  disk automounter script with update-rc.d ??
[03:14] <pewee> synaptic
[03:14] <jrib> Zues_62: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[03:14] <Zues_62> oh so does KDE core remove the packages as well
[03:14] <Flannel> Zues_62: removing 'kde-core' should remove most of the stuff that KDE brought in
[03:14] <jrib> smo: disk automounter?  What does that do?
[03:15] <Jumper> n33o: if u wish, I might be able to help, I spent about two weeks till I got my similar card working
[03:15] <Zues_62> cheers mate
[03:15] <mojo> Zues_62: synaptic
[03:15] <smo> sorry...
[03:15] <Budtske> smo: eeer just add them to fstab ?
[03:15] <Zues_62> ya
[03:15] <Flannel> Zues_62: no, but most od the stuff from KDE will depend on Kde-core, so removing it will remove that stuff as well
[03:15] <jrib> zany_zebra: on, second thought, try removing it first:  sudo dpkg -r f-prot-installer
[03:15] <Zues_62> neato and wil it remove the session
[03:15] <Flannel> jrib: He installed kde, not kubuntu-desktop, so he'll have a bit of a difference.
[03:15] <Haekke> um_whoa: sorry was afk for a sec. I got it working. tried 4 different network cables, and it seemed to be the problem. thanks for asking
[03:16] <Flannel> Zues_62: most likely, yes.  You might still have a package or two sticking around.
[03:16] <Zues_62> ok guys ty so much
[03:16] <smo> i made a start|stop script to detect and add good lines to fstab with ntfs-3g it works fine but i can t see new drives in nautilus they re right in /media

[03:18] <Mirth> Never touched it....
[03:18] <Mirth> Might have during a tutorial
[03:18] <Mirth> hehe
[03:18] <gfdfgdfds> Flannel, is there a way to get the installer on the livecd to see my partitions? I can see them with fdisk in terminal as root, but anything else cant see anything buy /dev/sda
[03:18] <jrib> Flannel: good point, though I think the list on the website should encompass the stuff that just kde would pull in
[03:18] <zany_zebra> jrib: thanks bunches for helping me.

[03:19] <gfdfgdfds> should I use the alt?
[03:19] <jrib> zany_zebra: k, does 'apt-cache policy f-prot-installer' show the package as installed?
[03:19] <gfdfgdfds> does it work better?
[03:20] <arentoine> Gtyrs : what is your problem
[03:20] <n33o> thanks to all who helped.. i seem to be making some progress

[03:20] <byen> hey guys, is there any other way to install ubuntu without actually touching the MBR (installing grub there)
[03:20] <n33o> Nb.. thanks for help.. bruenig
[03:20] <gfdfgdfds> byen, why wouldnt you want grub?
[03:20] <zany_zebra> jrib: installed:(none)
[03:20] <mojo> zany_zebra: nobody gets nailed here for accidental or minor floods but repeat flooding or big dumps will get you roasted
[03:20] <zany_zebra> mojo: sorry, and thanks.
[03:21] <jrib> zany_zebra: so does 'dpkg --configure -a' return without error then?
[03:21] <zany_zebra> mojo: it is odd to copy paste in cli
[03:21] <Gtyrs> arentoine: I pick Vista in the GRUB menu to load. It comes to the load bar and makes some HD activity and just hangs.
[03:21] <byen> gfdfgdfds: I have a preinstalled vista system and i have seen numerous threads which have users complaining that installing Grub has created issues
[03:21] <gfdfgdfds> ah
[03:21] <Gtyrs> me too...i have those issues
[03:21] <gfdfgdfds> I dont use vista... its still too shitty for me
[03:21] <gfdfgdfds> win2k > xp > vista
[03:21] <Flannel> gfdfgdfds: you might check the forums (ubuntuforums.org) for a thread about vista issues
[03:22] <Gtyrs> I like Vista...but not worth the money if I would have upgraded

[03:22] <mojo> Has anyone had luck running Logitech Bluetooth Wireless Desktop with Edgy?  The Dapper LiveCD seemed to be fine with it but the Edgy LiveCD... the mouse works when X is first starting but then it freezes and the kbd gets no connection... :(
[03:22] <um_whoa> w2k isn't all that bad
[03:22] <zany_zebra> jrib: yep
[03:22] <mojo> I am trying to install Edgy on a living room computer so I can put the Linux MCE packages on it.. but the kbd/mouse thing is a bummer
[03:22] <byen> there are so many users having issues.. there has to be a way arnd
[03:22] <mojo> I know the Logitech bluetooth dongle "emulates" a USB kbd/mouse so that you can use the Kbd in BIOS, etc... I am wondering if Edgy has bluetooth drivers that are killing the dongle's kbd/mouse emulation maybe???
[03:22] <Mirthy> ardchoille, you there by any chance?
[03:22] <tonyc__> Help  -- Edgy -- linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic fails to install
[03:23] <ardchoille> Mirthy: I am
[03:23] <Mirthy> I know you can help me with this. :)
[03:23] <gfdfgdfds> Flannel, is the alternate cd generally more successful for installing?
[03:23] <jrib> zany_zebra: k, you should be ok then.  The other error you pasted is because you don't have the GLIB -dev package
[03:23] <Flannel> tonyc__: What does it fail with?
[03:23] <ardchoille> Mirthy: What's up?
[03:23] <Mirthy> I get this error when doing an apt-get update

[03:23] <jrib> zany_zebra: sudo apt-get build-dep gaim     will probably get you what you need

[03:24] <jrib> Mirthy: pastebin the contents of that file
[03:24] <Nemes> Flannel: thanks

[03:36] <Flannel> Zues_62: You'll have to find the right package.  If you just walk through all those dependencies, erasing each one (except don't go down too far, or you'll start removing normal ubuntu stuff), you'll eventually get rid of it
[03:36] <bruenig> Mirthy, sudo apt-get update
[03:36] <orkid> Budtske: what motherboard. it's not a KT600 chipset NIC, it's possible a marvell.
[03:36] <DjViper> n33o: dvb card?
[03:36] <n33o> it is a tv tuner
[03:36] <Budtske> orkid: im verry sure its a Via Rhine II NIC
[03:36] <Mirthy> Yeah, I still get the Malformed Line 2
[03:36] <orkid> make sure it's' enabled in the bios.. but if you get it in dmesg then it probably is
[03:36] <n33o>  im not too sure what the difference is
[03:36] <Mirthy> I'll repaste what I have
[03:36] <orkid> Budtske: afaik via rhine doesn't come onboard
[03:36] <Budtske> orkid: EP-8kraI mobo
[03:36] <DjViper> n33o: analogue terrestial?
[03:36] <n33o> between dvb and normal tuner
[03:36] <bruenig> just rm the file
[03:36] <DjViper> hmm ok
[03:36] <Zues_62> how do i knw whn to stop
[03:36] <void^> orkid: i have a via rhine onboard. ;)
[03:37] <n33o> analogue terrestrial yes that is the signal
[03:37] <orkid> well i learn something everyday
[03:37] <DjViper> n33o: http://www.dvbshop.net/forum/index.php and www.doom9.org might have some info
[03:37] <Budtske> orkid: im verry sure they do, have another box that also has one onboard and works great
[03:37] <sigix> Please help!
[03:37] <sigix> E: The package armagetronad needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[03:37] <hansent> I will pay $10 (via paypal) to anyine who can figure out how to get my hdtv to disokay at the right resolution
[03:37] <sigix> how can I force this package removal?
[03:38] <Flannel> Zues_62: actually, you might try using auto-remove
[03:38] <Zues_62> how do i knw whn to sotp reomving stuff
[03:38] <DjViper> n33o: or just join #linuxtv ;)
[03:38] <n33o> thanks
[03:38] <Zues_62> auto reomve aye?

[03:39] <Zues_62> wat will audoreomve do
[03:39] <Zues_62> and sigix ksmserver - session manager for KDE what that do
[03:39] <orkid> Budtske: that sucks, don't quite know what it could be then. maybe your mobo isn't supported yet, but i don't think that's likely.
[03:39] <RoundyT1> !fto

[03:39] <orkid> Budtske: try playing with the 'PnP OS' setting in the BIOS maybe. but that shouldn't really do much. if it detects it in dmesg then it detects it. it might be a kernel issue somehow. does it work in Windows or another distribution/kernel?
[03:40] <hansent> has anyone here ever connected a hdtv(1080i) to their Ubuntu box (via DVI-D)?
[03:40] <rhYVNC> RoundyT1: I'm just using the ftp plugin for Firefox... Works good, and it's one less app I have to install seperately... :)
[03:40] <ricky> does anyone know how can i install the modem division usr 56k internal winmoden?
[03:40] <Budtske> orkid: i did, doesent make a difference :<

[03:41] <Mirthy> deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/  edgy
[03:41] <Mirthy> Is that what you needed?
[03:41] <Zues_62> ksmserver - session manager for KDE did nothing

[03:41] <mojo> n33o: from http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/help.html  it says there is a #tvtime channel here on freenode (if you can't get help here)
[03:41] <Zues_62> what was the ful one
[03:41] <bruenig> Mirthy, you need to add something after edgy, like "edgy multiverse"
[03:41] <RoundyT1> rhYVNC, you use it on your server?
[03:41] <godtvisken> any information available about how to get my media keyboard working? pause, mute and the volume control work (in rhythmbox), but not play, stop or next/previous
[03:41] <ardchoille> Mirthy: Remove one of those spaces before the word 'edgy'
[03:41] <bruenig> edgy alone won't work
[03:42] <RoundyT1> I need to install FTP on my server....how would I go about doing that?
[03:42] <ardchoille> bruenig: Even if it's in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/edgy-universe.list ?
[03:42] <wilo> bruenig: i am trying to run frostwire and it shits itself giving me this error:
[03:42] <wilo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12703/
[03:42] <bruenig> ardchoille, yeah
[03:42] <wilo> any ideas?
[03:42] <bruenig> wilo, don't run it
[03:42] <wilo> bruenig: dont run it?
[03:42] <RoundyT1> wilo, lol
[03:42] <Budtske> RoundyT1: apt-cache search ftp , choose a package and install it by apt-get install *package*
[03:42] <ardchoille> bruenig: I would have thought the 'edgy-universe' in the filename would take care of that.
[03:43] <RoundyT1> Budtske, what is recommended for a server side?
[03:43] <bruenig> ardchoille, no sources.list.d is just like extra sources.lists
[03:43] <abisen> where can i find /etc/inittab (equivalent) in ubuntu 7.04
[03:43] <Budtske> RoundyT1: it all depends really
[03:43] <commando>  RoundyT1: Its rather simple just do an apt-get install ftpd.
[03:43] <Flannel> abisen: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support, thanks
[03:43] <wilo> RoundyT1: :( hahaha i know
[03:43] <Budtske> oh you have an ftpd package ? nice :>
[03:43] <wilo> fucking java shits its guts out i do believe lol
[03:44] <Zues_62> it wont remove
[03:44] <sigix> anyone? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12704/
[03:45] <Mirthy> I give up
[03:45] <harry_> Is it possible to create a clone of a user
[03:45] <Mirthy> Nothing works :(
[03:45] <bruenig> Mirthy, look, very simple, what is the name of the file?
[03:45] <micahcowan> harry_, what do you mean by that?
[03:45] <Flannel> !language | wilo
[03:45] <Mirthy> "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/edgy-universe.list" ?
[03:45] <ubotu> wilo: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:45] <ricky> does anyone know how to install the modem division usr 56k internal winmoden?
[03:45] <bruenig> Mirthy, or just do this: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* && sudo apt-get update
[03:45] <commando> apt-get remove (paclage-name. Apt moght not beremovoving this package because other packages depend upon it.
[03:46] <harry_> which would keep all their files, settings, etc so that if someone got a virus ( unlikely) their data would be there
[03:46] <Mirthy> Oh, that worked bruenig
[03:46] <Flannel> harry_: Just backup their homedir, it contians all their data and configs
[03:46] <Flannel> !backup | harry_
[03:46] <ubotu> harry_: 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
[03:46] <Mirthy> Will that fix it too?
[03:46] <bruenig> Mirthy, it is fixed
[03:46] <RoundyT1> commando, so assuming that installed correctly -- do i just connect to the ip and it should work?
[03:46] <bruenig> Mirthy, to add all the extra official repositories, make sure synaptic, update-manager, or any other package managers are closed, open a terminal (applications>accessories>terminal) and copy and paste the following all at once: sudo sed -e 's/# deb/deb/g' -e 's/universe$/universe multiverse/g' -i.backup /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update
[03:47] <ronaldomeloferra> hi, i'm trying to update to 7.04beta but keep getting a "not enough free disk space". any clues about what is that?
[03:47] <sigix> bruenig: any help here?   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12704/
[03:47] <Flannel> ronaldomeloferra: just like what it says, you've run out of disk space.
[03:47] <harry_> becasue as I understand it the worst a virus can do without root is delete my files & settings
[03:47] <micahcowan> harry_, right, assuming that you don't have vulnerabilities that virus can exploit to obtain root.
[03:47] <Mirthy> Okay bruenig, that worked
[03:47] <ronaldomeloferra> flannel: thought so, but the root partition has more than 2gb free
[03:48] <Mirthy> Thanks mate
[03:48] <Flannel> ronaldomeloferra: What about var?
[03:48] <harry_> like what?
[03:48] <micahcowan> harry_, but you should be backing up important data anyway... you never know when an HD might just die.
[03:48] <bruenig> sigix, I know one way to get it to work, it might be a bit of an end around, but it will work
[03:48] <ronaldomeloferra> flannel: /var in is the root partition too
[03:48] <Flannel> harry_: well, all software has bugs.  Soemtimes they're priv. escalation bugs.
[03:48] <sigix> bruenig: talk to me
[03:48] <Flannel> ronaldomeloferra: It might be a bug, I don't know.  You might ask in #ubuntu+1
[03:48] <Budtske> ronaldomeloferra: df doesent show any partition that is low on diskspace ?
[03:49] <micahcowan> harry_, like poorly-written setuid programs (programs that users run as root). Such bugs tend to get fixed pretty quickly, though, and ubuntu's good with rapid security fixes.
[03:50] <harry_> ok. In any case, it's way more unlikely than running on Windoze.
[03:50] <ronaldomeloferra> Budtske: df shows 2gb free
[03:50] <mojo> WEIRD: Okay so the mouse/kbd work on Edgy fine as GDM comes up, and part-way thru trying to log in they both freeze up and I have to plug in another usb mouse/kbd to go on...  very strange
[03:50] <ronaldomeloferra> Flannel: will ask there
[03:50] <Mirthy> Now I just need to figure out how to install Cinelerra....
[03:50] <bruenig> sigix, if you edit the postrm script and postinst script to just include the line exit, the removal will work. So do "gksudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/armagetronad.prerm" and delete every line except the first one and under the first one put "exit" and save
[03:50] <Mirthy> :D
[03:50] <Flannel> harry_: Correct.  But, backing up is relatively painless, so there's no reason not to do it regularly.  Follow those links for a plethora of methods
[03:51] <bruenig> sigix, do the same thing to /var/lib/dpkg/info/armagetronad.postinst too
[03:51] <sigix> bruenig: got it, I commented out the one line in the prerm script and that worked
[03:51] <sigix> thx!
[03:51] <byen> can grub be installed in the  "/" patition and then maybe a way to access windows install?
[03:52] <micahcowan> I have never gotten a Linux virus, they're extremely rare. Much more common is port-knocking, but Ubuntu is great for secure default-configurations all in all, as well. Much more likely is that your stuff becomes toast due to drive failure, or accidental rm -fr ^_^
[03:52] <bruenig> sigix, yeah the postinst script error was confusing. I didn't understand why that would matter since it was already installed.
[03:52] <Flannel> byen: grub (stage 2) is always installed in /boot, if you don't have a spearate /boot artition, it's installed inside /
[03:52] <bruenig> but it was there so I just figured
[03:52] <Darwin> What's a simple way to convert video files to ogg theora in the highest quality possible?

[03:53] <byen> oh. ty Flannel . I am just a bit lost as to how i can dual boot with vista.. dont know whhich route to take
[03:53] <praettor> i know how to use synaptic, but am not sure where to check for updates
[03:54] <hanasaki> what do you guys use to manage users in ldap and groups etc
[03:54] <sigix> praettor: "update-manager" from command line
[03:54] <sp0ro> !resolution
[03:54] <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
[03:55] <micahcowan> praettor, you should be automatically notified when new updates of things you already have installed are available. Otherwise, you can run update-manager.
[03:55] <bruenig> gksudo update-manager will be necessary
[03:56] <micahcowan> bruenig, not on edgy, at any rate.
[03:56] <bruenig> !es | hendaus_

[03:56] <Darwin> What's a simple way to convert videos to Ogg Theora in the highest quality possible?
[03:56] <bruenig> won't you need root privileges to update
[03:56] <commando> thats the buty of sudo
[03:56] <micahcowan> Yes; update-manager runs gksu when actual updates are done; for viewing what updates are available, however, you can run it directly.
[03:56] <um_whoa> you will
[03:57] <adayah> hello
[03:57] <um_whoa> and it will prompt you for a passwd if you use the none cli way
[03:57] <bruenig> micahcowan, oh that's right because cron does it
[03:57] <um_whoa> and if you the cli way you have to do sudo apt-get
[03:57] <micahcowan> bruenig, oh, you mean the apt-get update? yeah.

[03:59] <praettor> i am running update-manager, can i close the terminal
[03:59] <shiva> from india
[03:59] <bruenig> jcapote, don't think so
[03:59] <micahcowan> shiva, well, if you're running Linux, you've already got the "L" of LAMP. You also need Apache, mysql and PHP. If you go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager, it should help you install those.

[04:02] <froyd> im in failsafe terminal
[04:02] <micahcowan> shiva, you may need to install a desktop environment if you installed it in server mode. If you don't want to do that, you can use dselect to install those packages from the commandline, instead of Synaptic.
[04:02] <bruenig> !xhangs | froyd
[04:02] <ubotu> froyd: If the GUI hangs after logging in, use <ctrl><alt><f1> to switch to text mode. Log in and do: rm .{X,ICE}authority

[04:03] <ubotu> Ryan__: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:03] <froyd> and run the command rm .{X,ICE}authority

[04:04] <shiva> i used tis command to view net work
[04:04] <shiva> how to edit the one
[04:04] <mjr> Darwin, ffmpeg2theora is a fairly simple command-line converter that reads most stuff you throw at it
[04:04] <shiva> i just use default ip when i installed lamp
[04:05] <mjr> Darwin, as for gui, thoggen rips DVDs into Theora, but is specialized for only that
[04:05] <flubber> locl abisen
[04:05] <micahcowan> shiva, have you used vi before?
[04:05] <shnastybiznastic> So I'm sure this is the wrong channel to ask in, but I expect that someone will direct me to the right channel.  When I play WoW, I get a constant "projector noise" in the background.  What can I do about this?
[04:05] <texastaz> Good Evening Fellas
[04:05] <shiva> yes
[04:05] <shiva> but there can view
[04:05] <shiva> cant edit
[04:05] <abisen> flubber what's locl
[04:06] <hendaus_> bruenig,  :)
[04:07] <micahcowan> shiva, you'll need to run it as root to edit things like /etc/network/interfaces (via sudo); but actually, you very likely don't want to edit that file directly: and it would probably not be sufficient to do so anyway.
[04:07] <Flannel> shnastybiznastic: #winehq is probsbaly your best bet
[04:07] <RoundyT1> i need help with wordpress :-D anyone wanna help?
[04:07] <shnastybiznastic> Flannel: my thanks
[04:08] <micahcowan> RoundyT1, you should ask in #wordpress.

[04:09] <KaoticEvil> anyone have experience with ubuntu server edition?
[04:09] <micahcowan> KaoticEvil, some here do, yes. Do you have a question to ask? :)
[04:09] <KaoticEvil> micahcowan: yeah.. ive got it installed.. how do i setup LAMP now?
[04:10] <froyd> !xhangs
[04:10] <ubotu> If the GUI hangs after logging in, use <ctrl><alt><f1> to switch to text mode. Log in and do: rm .{X,ICE}authority
[04:10] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: the LAMP preinstall was an option on the CD
[04:10] <Flannel> !lamp | KaoticEvil
[04:10] <ubotu> KaoticEvil: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[04:10] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: or you can follow that link
[04:10] <micahcowan> shiva, see above ^
[04:10] <KaoticEvil> Flannel: ive already installed lamp.. but i dont know how to conf it
[04:11] <hagabaka> the "quick reply" in ubuntuforums is so confusing...
[04:11] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: well, for the most part, it's already setup.
[04:11] <RoundyT1> micahcowan, they don't talk in there
[04:11] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: Do you have a particular thing you're looking to do?
[04:11] <KaoticEvil> Flannel: well, i dont see the process running, nor can i access the web server
[04:11] <micahcowan> RoundyT1, someone just asked what you need... in general though, it's better to ask the question you have, rather than to ask if someone can help.
[04:11] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: eh?  apache should be running, I think.  `ps aux | grep apache` doesn't show anything?
[04:11] <shiva> wat i hav to do now
[04:12] <decoy5657> anyone in here using acronis true image server linux 9?
[04:12] <KaoticEvil> Flannel: the only thing it shows is the process that i just started by issuing that command
[04:12] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: right.  Ok, go ahead and start apache, with `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start`
[04:13] <micahcowan> KaoticEvil, the link ubotu gave you has sections on configuring Apache, etc.
[04:13] <argonel> hiyas
[04:13] <chipbuddy> so i installed kubuntu and xubuntu to try them out. but they both installed a bunch of little programs and such in my applications (such as karm)... how do i get rid of all the stuff that was installed?
[04:13] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: I guess even with the LAMP preinstall, the 'nothing listening by default' still applies
[04:13] <shiva>  /etc/network/interfaces
[04:13] <argonel> i'd like to update to feisty and switch from amd64 to i386. can it be done in one step?
[04:13] <micahcowan> shiva, I was just pointing you to what ubotu had to say about LAMP.
[04:13] <n33o> k .., i found info on my tv card.. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=2485586 it apparently works.. can anyone help talk me through configuring this to work with tvtime?
[04:13] <Hypnotic> Is there a good partition manager for Linux?
[04:13] <harry__> How do I reduce the size of my windows partition?
[04:13] <shiva> when i use the command its showing erron permissin denited
[04:13] <KaoticEvil> hmmm.. i guess LAMP didnt get installed...
[04:14] <RoundyT1> I need to setup the MySQL part of wordpress....adding a database and making sure the right permissions are set.....
[04:14] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: you sure you selected the LAMP option when installing?
[04:14] <KaoticEvil> Flannel: yes, quite sure
[04:14] <n33o> k .., i found info on my tv card.. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=2485586 it apparently works.. can anyone help talk me through configuring this to work with tvtime?
[04:14] <chipbuddy> Hypnotic: i'm a noob so don't believe me right away. gparted works great... but you need to do it from a live CD (to make sure your drives are unmounted)
[04:14] <Flannel> argonel: no.  64 > 32 bit (and v.v.) requires a reinstall.
[04:14] <micahcowan> KaoticEvil, what is the output of "dpkg -s apache2"?
[04:14] <Hypnotic> ah, sweet!
[04:14] <froyd> my friendshelp me please :D
[04:15] <shiva> can u plz tel me i need to up my server
[04:15] <froyd> the rm .{X,ICE}authority didnt work for me
[04:15] <froyd> !xhangs
[04:15] <ubotu> If the GUI hangs after logging in, use <ctrl><alt><f1> to switch to text mode. Log in and do: rm .{X,ICE}authority
[04:15] <shiva> wat i hav to do  for tat
[04:15] <crdlb> froyd, that's not your problem
[04:15] <n33o> anyone? know about tv cards?
[04:15] <crdlb> froyd, X works fine
[04:15] <froyd> you know its not acctually hanging , it just boots, i hear the gnome sound and everything
[04:15] <froyd> crdlb: yah
[04:15] <crdlb> froyd, you just uninstalled some of gnome
[04:15] <micahcowan> shiva, as I said earlier, you have to be root (use sudo) to edit /etc/network/interfaces. As I also said, you probably don't want to edit that file anyway. And I'm not the guy to walk you through network config.
[04:15] <cambio_fotos> change photos xxx
[04:15] <froyd> i think the autoremove removed some important stuff
[04:15] <KaoticEvil> Flannel: says its not installed or available.. could this be because im using edgy, and not dapper?
[04:15] <shiva> already installed the lamp
[04:16] <crdlb> froyd, what desktop are you using?
[04:16] <froyd> crdlb: i did sudo apt-get install gnome again
[04:16] <chipbuddy> how do i uninstall all the applications that were installed with kubuntu and xubuntu at the same time?
[04:16] <froyd> but  nutting
[04:16] <froyd> still the same
[04:16] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: eh?  No.  Edgy's server Install still works fine.  What says it's not available?
[04:16] <shiva> sudo
[04:16] <crdlb> froyd, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:16] <crdlb> froyd, not everything you need is part of gnome
[04:16] <froyd> ok ill have to quit here to get to terminal again and then ill come back
[04:16] <crdlb> froyd, wiat
[04:16] <KaoticEvil> Flannel: dpkg says package apache2 is not installed or available
[04:16] <crdlb> wait
[04:16] <froyd> crdlb: humn
[04:16] <froyd> ok
[04:16] <froyd> im listening
[04:17] <crdlb> froyd, next time you run gaim: run "gaim &"
[04:17] <froyd> oh
[04:17] <froyd> ok
[04:17] <crdlb> froyd, then you can still use the xterm
[04:17] <Darwin> Why is the latest version of ffmpeg2theora in the repositories 0.16?
[04:17] <shiva> now iam in root
[04:17] <froyd> cool dude
[04:17] <froyd> thx
[04:17] <froyd> ill come back then
[04:17] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: then you don't have apache installed.  You can go ahead and install it, or if you'd like, try to reinstall with the LAMP preinstall thing
[04:17] <crdlb> froyd, or just use a VT
[04:17] <Nemes> What field should I change (within passwd or shadow, I guess) in order to force an user to change his password at his first login?
[04:17] <suterfugio> somebody know about an application in linux that changes your wallpaper automatically?
[04:18] <cminion> hi can anyone tell me if the sparc ubutnu download works on a sparc64 architecture?
[04:18] <KaoticEvil> grrrrrrrrr
[04:18] <cminion> ? sorry
[04:18] <crdlb> !apache2
[04:19] <ubotu> apache2: next generation, scalable, extendable web server. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.55-4ubuntu4 (edgy), package size 35 kB, installed size 80 kB
[04:19] <micahcowan> KaoticEvil, or just follow the instructions on the link ubotu gave. If apache2 didn't install, the other components of LAMP may not have, as well...
[04:19] <KaoticEvil> micahcowan: those only apply for breezy and dapper...
[04:19] <KaoticEvil> it says installation is different for edgy
[04:19] <Darwin> does ffmpeg2theora support RMVB?
[04:19] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: the instructions are the same.
[04:20] <mojo> suterfugio: i think there is a gnome applet called gwall or gwallpaper or some such iirc
[04:20] <suterfugio> ok
[04:20] <micahcowan> KaoticEvil, I don't see where it mentions edgy. The installation should be at /least/ essentially the same.
[04:20] <KaoticEvil> Flannel: its on a virtual machine, so i can just reintall the who ball of wax... im glad i did it this way instead of wiping my server box LOL
[04:20] <suterfugio> thanks
[04:20] <froyd> crdlb: THX DUDEEEE
[04:20] <harry__> what exactly is apache for?
[04:20] <sdrev> do i want to install libdvdread3 or libdvdcss to play dvds using vlc?
[04:20] <crdlb> harry_, web server
[04:20] <xX-ACID-Xx> hi what do i have to type into terminal to turn my cursor into skull?
[04:20] <KaoticEvil> harry_: apache is a webserver
[04:20] <froyd> crdlb: its back to normal now ....this autoremove thing is dangerous man
[04:21] <Flannel> Darwin: Edgy will only ever have .16, because that's what it was released with
[04:21] <xX-ACID-Xx> to refresh
[04:21] <KaoticEvil> xX-ACID-Xx: try xkill
[04:21] <oga> find do i find out what type of video card I have in this computer, is there a terminal command?
[04:21] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: instllation isn't any different in Edgy.  That's the server CD being different in Edgy
[04:21] <mojo> suterfugio: apt-cache show wallpaper-tray
[04:21] <xX-ACID-Xx> yeh thats it thanx
[04:21] <nb-bob> xkill xxACID
[04:21] <crdlb> oga, lspci|grep VGA
[04:21] <suterfugio> thanks
[04:22] <KaoticEvil> Flannel: as i said, ill just redo the install.. its only a virtual machine :)
[04:22] <Darwin> Flannel: doh, that's right I've read that before and I always forget
[04:22] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: sounds good.
[04:22] <froyd> crdlb: Is there a way to see whut the autoremove remove when i runned the command ?
[04:22] <crdlb> froyd, afaik it should tell you before it does it
[04:22] <chipbuddy> how can i uninstall all the applications that came along with kubuntu quickly?
[04:22] <crdlb> it should be like "are you sure"
[04:22] <froyd> yah it told me , but it told me also that it were stuff that i dont needed anymore :/
[04:23] <froyd> bad linux bad pinguin verybad :D
[04:23] <Darwin> I need to convert an RMVB file to theora but ffmpeg2theora does not support that format. What other programs can i use?
[04:23] <argonel> Flannel: if i use debootstrap to install the base system and then install the desktop package, would that be exactly equivalent to what would be installed if i downloaded a cd?
[04:23] <crdlb> Darwin, mencoder
[04:23] <froyd> anyway crdlb :D
[04:24] <froyd> im never autoremoving anything anymore :D
[04:24] <crdlb> prolly a good policy
[04:24] <froyd> k goodnite all
[04:24] <Flannel> argonel: yeah
[04:24] <McFrosty> When I make an application full screen it is leaving a small gap inbetween itself and the start menu bar (sorry not sure the correct term for it)
[04:24] <KaoticEvil> do the same install procedures apply in server as on the desktop? i.e. "sudo apt-get install <package name>"?
[04:25] <Flannel> KaoticEvil: yes.  All the server is is ubuntu, sans GUI, with the server kernel
[04:25] <KaoticEvil> ok, cool.. thats good to know
[04:25] <Darwin> crdlb, where can I find a god begginer guide for mencoder?
[04:26] <Darwin> *good
[04:26] <fr500_> does mpd do streaming audio or something?
[04:27] <Ryan__> where's the apache configuration file?
[04:27] <Flannel> Ryan__: /etc/apache2/ contains them
[04:27] <Darwin> KaoticEvil, do you play DnD?
[04:27] <Flannel> Ryan__: Ubuntu does stuff the debian way, so not quite the same as you may be used to.
[04:27] <Ryan__> my httpd.conf is blank
[04:27] <Ryan__> is that supposed to happen?
[04:27] <Flannel> Ryan__: that's correct.  Ubuntu doesn't use httpd.conf
[04:27] <Ryan__> then what does it use?
[04:28] <Flannel> Ryan__: serverwide configs are in apache2.conf, site (virtualhost) specific stuff is in /sites-available/, mod specific stuff is in /mods-available/
[04:28] <Ryan__> thanks
[04:28] <nb-bob> has anyone here setup a tablet pc with the finepoint driver?
[04:28] <Flannel> Ryan__: Ubuntu (being based off of debian) uses the debian layout, as specified in the apache manual
[04:28] <nb-bob> mine is jumpy and unpredictable
[04:29] <robbie_crash> How can I force a dismount of an nfts drive so that I can format it to ext3?
[04:29] <Flannel> fr500_: no.  mpd does local audio. Although as of Edgy's version, it can stream to a (shout|ice)cast server.
[04:29] <fr500_> Flannel: i though i could install mpd on a computer and hear the music via browser
[04:29] <fr500_> Flannel: am i mistaken?
[04:30] <fr500_> Flannel: browser on any other pc
[04:30] <Flannel> fr500_: sort of.  mpd can stream to shoutcast.
[04:30] <Flannel> fr500_: mpd has numerous frontends (including webbased ones)
[04:30] <Flannel> fr500_: so, tehcombination of mpd + icecast, and you can do that.
[04:30] <fr500_> Flannel: so it's up to the frontend
[04:30] <harry__> How do I get my computers to connect over a LAN? ( for file transfer) I want to get a file from this computer
[04:30] <harry_> to this one.
[04:30] <nb-bob> no tablet pc guru's tonight huh?
[04:31] <Flannel> fr500_: no, the frontend will be webbased, and you'll stream to whatever mpd is playing to (local audio, or shoutcast)
[04:31] <robbie_crash> harry__ what operating systems are your computers running?
[04:31] <fr500_> Flannel: got it
[04:32] <harry__> this one is running Feisty, and the other one is running Edgy
[04:32] <Ademan> has anyone used pkg-config with sconstruct?
[04:32] <robbie_crash> How can I force a dismount of an nfts drive so that I can format it to ext3? Each time I try and do $ sudo umount /dev/sda1 it tells me the device or resource is busy
[04:32] <harry__> but there are also windows computers on the network
[04:32] <robbie_crash> Have you set up a samba server?
[04:33] <rbd> hey guys, any idea what package linux/bitops.h is in for 6.10?
[04:33] <robbie_crash> and can your computers talk to each other across your lan
[04:33] <robbie_crash> ?
[04:33] <harry__> my computers don't see each other, no.
[04:33] <robbie_crash> do you know all of their ip addresses?
[04:34] <AngryElf> how do I make export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib  permanent?
[04:34] <harry__> yes
[04:34] <Ademan> AngryElf: you could use your .bashrc
[04:34] <robbie_crash> can any of them ping each other?
[04:34] <grayman> or the global one for all users
[04:35] <hansent> has anyone successfully configured Xorg to connect to a 1080i hdtv over dvi-d (nvidia 6150)?
[04:35] <harry__> yeah
[04:35] <robbie_crash> can they all ping each other?
[04:35] <harry__> yeah
[04:35] <pirothezero> is there a way to run nautilis for desktop shortcuts and konqueror for everything else?
[04:36] <robbie_crash> So they can talk to each other, but there are no shared files showing up?
[04:36] <robbie_crash> !samba | harry__
[04:36] <ubotu> harry__: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[04:36] <KnowledgEngineer> hello
[04:36] <rhYVNC> where do I go to make suggestions to improve Ubuntu?  Is that something I should be doing in the forums?
[04:36] <robbie_crash> Follow those
[04:36] <robbie_crash> Those will both get your linux shares showing up on your network
[04:36] <rhYVNC> I can think of about 20 small things that would make Feisty a perfect OS.
[04:36] <robbie_crash> For all computers
[04:37] <KnowledgEngineer> exist some program like easy-tag but fot WAV file??
[04:37] <Flannel> rhYVNC: Depends on the suggestions.  Forum might be a good place, yeah.
[04:37] <Banky019_> HEY
[04:37] <Flannel> rhYVNC: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate
[04:37] <robbie_crash> How can I force a dismount of an nfts drive so that I can format it to ext3? Each time I try and do $ sudo umount /dev/sda1 it tells me the device or resource is busy
[04:37] <rhYVNC> My suggestions are like, "right click option to enquee folder of mp3s in [default media player] " anywhere in nautilus.
[04:38] <david> hi
[04:38] <carthik> rhYVNC, there is a collection of nautilus scripts which might do that
[04:38] <Flannel> rhYVNC: You might post bugs (well, feature requests) in launchpad, if they're things like that.
[04:38] <nb-bob> does anything have /dev/sda1 open ? Robbie
[04:38] <harry__> Do I need to install samba on te windows computers too?
[04:38] <rhYVNC> Or, "right click"+drag option to make a launcher to an app in any toolbar/desktop.
[04:38] <robbie_crash> Nothing that I can see anywhere
[04:38] <david> anyone knows how I can send a message to an application with dbus? (the application is audacious)
[04:38] <grayman> robbie_crash, you can use the -f option
[04:38] <robbie_crash> harry__ no, samba is how windows sees shared files
[04:38] <carthik> rhYVNC, for that specific feature, chances are, things on a default install will stay the same - GNOME takes pride in keeping things minimal, sort of.
[04:39] <robbie_crash> $ sudo umount -f /dev/sda1
[04:39] <robbie_crash> umount2: Device or resource busy
[04:39] <vitao> hi how i can logout with terminal?
[04:39] <rhYVNC> Ah, so these are screwed up aspects of Gnome?
[04:39] <nb-bob> umount /dev/sda1 -f doesn't work ?
[04:39] <abisen>  can somebody recommend me a nice web based file manager that i can use for storing and sharing my documents with others .. something like a web based ftp++
[04:39] <vitao> hi how i can logout with terminal?
[04:39] <robbie_crash> $ sudo umount /dev/sda1 -f
[04:39] <Flannel> vitao: logout of... gnome?
[04:39] <robbie_crash> umount2: Device or resource busy
[04:40] <vitao> fluxbox
[04:40] <rhYVNC> abisen: there are programs that allow you to do that with gmail.
[04:40] <carthik> rhYVNC, http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/faq.php should help you do what you want, if you do want to do it :)
[04:40] <abisen> thanks
[04:40] <KnowledgEngineer> i need a program that can set the tag of a WAV file
[04:40] <KnowledgEngineer> better if is possible set a tag for all file in a directory
[04:41] <rhYVNC> I'm mostly interested in trying to get Feisty perfect "by default" so I can migrate all of the machines I administer to Feisty, and can windows once and for all.
[04:41] <rhYVNC> There are just 20 small options that should be included by default that are not.
[04:41] <KnowledgEngineer> example: set al TAG(artist) in this directory as (bach)
[04:41] <KnowledgEngineer> *all
[04:41] <Flannel> rhYVNC: I'd post in the forums, they might be able to better redirect you
[04:42] <robbie_crash> Well that seemed like a silly work around, editing fstab to comment out the mount point, doing sudo mount -a and then forcing a doing umount /dev/sda1 -f
[04:43] <nb-bob> best guess boot up live cd version and format it there and then reboot back into ubuntu
[04:43] <Pharaoh_Atem> Can someone help me? I have a problem about using wireless on Dapper
[04:43] <ToFeRRaDo> How do I install berly on ubuntu 7.04?
[04:43] <grayman> ToFeRRaDo, check beryl-project wiki

[04:45] <ToFeRRaDo> [Flannel] : ok thank you!
[04:45] <Flannel> !lamp | shiva, follow this URL
[04:45] <ubotu> shiva, follow this URL: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[04:46] <IcemanV9> Pharaoh_Atem: system > admin > networking ... try to set up there
[04:46] <rhYVNC> Flannel: Thanks!  Will do!
[04:46] <shiva> allready install the lamp server
[04:46] <shiva> after tat wat i hav to do
[04:46] <Ryan__> how do you start or stop apache? I tried apachectl but it said apache isn't installed. if i type locahost in firefox it says "it works!" so I no apache is installed
[04:46] <shiva> for up grade
[04:46] <Flannel> shiva: nothing.  Put stuff in /var/www
[04:47] <Flannel> Ryan__: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop|start|restart

[04:47] <sdrev> how do i install the libdvdcss2 package?
[04:48] <shiva> now i want to configure the net work
[04:48] <Flannel> shiva: You've already got it setup.  Just put stuff in your document root (/var/www) and you're done.
[04:48] <bimberi> !libdvdcss2 | sdrev
[04:48] <ubotu> sdrev: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[04:49] <shiva> how to configure network in lamp
[04:50] <Flannel> shiva: What?  LAMP is just the httpd, your network configuration is independant of it
[04:50] <shiva> i mean ubuntu i want to edit ip
[04:51] <shiva> wats is quota?
[04:51] <Flannel> !info quota

[04:51] <cas3> how can alphabetize a list in a file?
[04:52] <sodoku> new mainboard, how can i force hardware recognition ?
[04:52] <Foon> heya, does anyone else here run F@H?
[04:52] <um_whoa> sort file -o sorted_file
[04:53] <cas3> thanks um_whoa
[04:53] <um_whoa> welcome
[04:53] <um_whoa> man sort, it has some nifty options
[04:53] <Foon> heya, does anyone else here run F@H?
[04:53] <um_whoa> because you might have some upper case and lower case words that both start with the same letter, in that case you want to fold them all into lowercase for the sort
[04:53] <sodoku> no one ?
[04:54] <um_whoa>  of you will get some strange sorts
[04:55] <Pharaoh_Atem> IcemanV9, the system did not recognize the device at all
[04:56] <kondor101> Using 7.04,  I need to know how to unblock ports, I can not seem to do it
[04:56] <ricky> does anyone know how to install a winmodem
[04:57] <kondor101> !linmodem
[04:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linmodem - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:57] <Pharaoh_Atem> i looked around and saw that i could use madwifi or ndiswrapper
[04:57] <kondor101> ricky, look up linmodem
[04:57] <IcemanV9> Pharaoh_Atem: looks like you'll need ndiswrapper to get it up and running, i believe. more info on wifi > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:57] <bimberi> !modem | ricky
[04:57] <ubotu> ricky: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[04:57] <um_whoa>  i thought you couldn't that winmodems were not smart enough for what *unix need
[04:57] <bimberi> some have drivers for linux
[04:58] <kondor101> you can but it is a bit hit n miss
[04:58] <um_whoa> ah, how the world changes
[04:58] <ricky> so i can use a winmodem?
[04:58] <bimberi> as a doorstop, sure
[04:58] <kondor101> well you could 5 years ago, to be honest i dont think much has been done with them for years
[04:59] <ricky> bimberi what about a usrobotics, those one work on linux?
[04:59] <kondor101> ricky, maybe not, you have to research it a bit, try your model number and linmodem in google
[04:59] <bimberi> ricky: it depends on which one you have, the page ubotu linked to above will tell you
[04:59] <jetscreamer> linmodems.org
[04:59] <bimberi> ricky: (or link to a page that tells you)
[04:59] <kondor101> so, anyone up on unblocking ports?
[05:02] <Pharaoh_Atem> huh
[05:02] <Pharaoh_Atem> apparently ubuntu dapper drake has ndiswrapper 1.8
[05:02] <bimberi> kondor101: 'sudo iptables -L' will show you any firewall rules (Ubuntu blocks no ports out of the box)
[05:03] <Pharaoh_Atem> and the card's driver has problems with those below ndiswrapper 1.23
[05:03] <shiva> how to edit quota?
[05:03] <shiva> can u plz tel me the command how to edit quota?
[05:04] <Ubongo> hi folks...is there an ISDN simulator application that I can use on a linux box?
[05:04] <Pelo> Ubongo,  have you tried looking in synaptic ?
[05:05] <fr500_> Ubongo: isdn simulator?
[05:05] <Ubongo> I'm hoping to set up a cheap Cisco lab...
[05:05] <maney> just curious - is the "desktop" installer crippled by design, or is it just not yet ready for anything non-trivial, like a setup with LVM?
[05:05] <Ubongo> I've got some routers...but ISDN switches aren't cheap
[05:05] <bruenig> !find isdn
[05:06] <ubotu> Found: isdnutils-base, isdnutils-doc, isdnutils-xtools, asterisk-app-misdn-v110, asterisk-chan-misdn (and 12 others)
[05:06] <jetscreamer> Ubongo: http://www.google.com/linux?q=isdn+simulator&restrict=linux
[05:06] <chipbuddy> is there a gnome version of yakuake? or... really i just want a terminal that will launch very quickly (always open?)
[05:06] <harry__> I am getting an odd error message
[05:06] <bruenig> chipbuddy, xterm
[05:06] <maney> xfce's terminal has me half convinced that gnome-terminal is obsolete
[05:07] <bruenig> xfce-terminal and gnome-terminal are essentially the same
[05:07] <maney> don't really know how quickly it launches - a window with four tabs is just part of the desktop, always :-)
[05:07] <maney> xfce omits a few gnome stupidities
[05:07] <bruenig> xfce may, but that has nothing to do with xfce-terminal
[05:08] <maney> I think it was the kill buttons ont he tabs that pushed me
[05:08] <Crell> Hi all.  Can anyone recommend a stable PHP 5.2 backport for Edgy?
[05:08] <maney> no, that's what I meant, sorry
[05:08] <iosdfjdosi> xfce is very good
[05:08] <Phildo> heys - just followed a tutorial that suggested changing everything dapper to edgy in sources.list and then running dist-upgrade
[05:08] <maney> xfce-term lacks some gnome-term dumbth
[05:08] <Phildo> should that have worked?
[05:08] <maney> Phildo: sometimes...
[05:08] <chipbuddy> so... is there a consensus? i should download xfce term?
[05:08] <harry_> I tried to make a shell script, but it keeps telling me " ./alarm.sh: line 8: syntax error: unexpected end of file "
[05:08] <bruenig> Phildo, is there anything to suggest it doesn't
[05:08] <cafuego_> Crell: I've done one for Debian Sarge that *may* work with Edgy.
[05:08] <bruenig> harry_, pastebin the script
[05:08] <bimberi> Phildo: on a server yes, desktop - probably not
[05:09] <bruenig> !paste | harry_
[05:09] <ubotu> harry_: 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:09] <Pelo> Phildo,  it didnt, for me , so I dled the cd and started from scratch
[05:09] <Crell> I found one on the forums from dotdeb, but it conflicted with just about everything related to PHP. :-)
[05:09] <cafuego_> Crell: [No implied warranty if any kind] 
[05:09] <Crell> cafuego_: Eh, I suspect a sarge package won't work on Edgy unless I compile it from scratch.
[05:09] <maney> I've had fairly good luck with desktop upgrades, but there's always some cleanup to be done by hand IME
[05:10] <cafuego_> Crell: Well, let me see if it wrecks mine
[05:10] <Phildo> maney, it boots, but i get a black screen now... when i shell into it, things seem ok, except when i go to make menuconfig on the kernel - i get a bunch of errors: http://rafb.net/p/E05Mob56.html
[05:11] <maney> Phildo: black as in text-mode or as in X is lost?  the latter is often due to drivers, esepcially non-free ones IME :-(
[05:11] <godtvisken> i'm getting a no "no screens found error" when X tries to start. what should i try to do to fix it?
[05:11] <Phildo> yeah, latter.
[05:11] <Phildo> just get a few blotchy colors on the screen
[05:11] <Phildo> so i was gonna fiddle with drivers.
[05:11] <bruenig> harry_, ...
[05:11] <Phildo> but make looks unhappy
[05:12] <maney> yeah, prolly something hosed in the driver - some bits have to match the kernel and X, gets very picky
[05:12] <harry_> it's at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12709/
[05:12] <anirudha> Hi everyone is there a Realplayer for Ubuntu, I tried the Real One Gold for linux but it does not seem to install correctly.
[05:13] <Phildo> maney, if i cant configure the kernel, where would you suggest going from here?
[05:13] <bimberi> !info realplayer | anirudha
[05:13] <ubotu> anirudha: Package realplayer does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[05:13] <maney> anirudha: archive.canonical.com has a couple non-free packages.  realplay 10
[05:13] <bruenig> harry_, well first there is no shabang (no #!/bin/bash, or whatever else shell you are using)
[05:13] <harry_> ok.
[05:14] <harry_> whoops.
[05:14] <bimberi> !info realplayer dapper
[05:14] <anirudha> Oh okay guys ... I will try your suggestions.
[05:14] <ubotu> realplayer: Real Player (installer). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 8.0.11 (dapper), package size 22 kB, installed size 208 kB (Only available for i386)
[05:14] <bruenig> harry_, what shell are you using, and what exactly are you trying to accomplish?
[05:14] <maney> Phildo: if you can work from text mode, revert to base X drivers (no nvidia-*) and see if you can get a non-tweaked setup back would be my guess
[05:14] <cafuego_> Crell: So far so good
[05:15] <harry_> I am trying to make an annoying beeping sound in the mornig. My alarm clock isn't very good.
[05:15] <harry_> I was going to use cron
[05:15] <Phildo> maney, i dont want X running at all for now, i just want to be able to make menuconfig on the kernel...
[05:16] <PoofDaddy> Flannel: How are you, my friend?
[05:16] <Pelo> harry_,  how about a meeting in evolution, I think you can set the alarm.wav you want
[05:16] <maney> Phildo: oh, okay.  menuconfig failing is most often the ncurses-dev package IIRC
[05:16] <cafuego_> Crell: Ok, it works. My gallery2 is up and OK.
[05:16] <bruenig> echo -e "\a" doesn't even do anything, here, is it supposed to make some sort of sound?
[05:16] <Phildo> sweet, i'll reinstall it. thanks :)
[05:16] <godtvisken> i'm getting a no "no screens found error" when X tries to start. what should i try to do to fix it?
[05:16] <Crell> Hm, ok.  Actually I'm tracking this problem closer and it may not be a PHP 5.1-related problem.
[05:16] <Crell> What's the URL for it, just in case?
[05:17] <harry_> it's supposed to make the system bell go
[05:17] <cafuego_> http://debian.cafuego.net/dists/sarge-cafuego
[05:17] <Crell> Thanks.
[05:17] <maney> Phildo: could be something else, but that's what I usually turn out to have overlooked ;-)
[05:17] <Pelo> godtvisken,  where / when /how do you get this msg ,  I mean is gnome started ?
[05:17] <harry_> it works when I use echo
[05:17] <cafuego_> Crell: It's a complete port of the etch apache2.2+php5.2+php4.4 to Sarge
[05:17] <Phildo> maney, did you mean libncurses5-dev ?
[05:17] <cafuego_> oh and apache 1.3
[05:17] <Crell> 4.4?  Why? :-)
[05:17] <cafuego_> Crell: I actually needed 4.4.4
[05:18] <maney> Phildo: yeah, that should be it.  it's been a while since I've had to find it
[05:18] <cafuego_> There is a fair bit of stuff that won't run on 5.x
[05:18] <Phildo> alright :)
[05:18] <cafuego_> And paying clients want it, so 4.4 it is :-)
[05:18] <Pelo> godtvisken,  are you running beryl ?
[05:19] <carthik> how do I get network manager to refresh the list of wireless networks?
[05:19] <bruenig> harry_, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12712/
[05:19] <cafuego_> Crell: if you do want to build, I have (modified) source debs there too.
[05:19] <PoofDaddy> Need help:  I can't open skype and I get a window that says that another instance of skype may be running.  I don't have it up and I can't seem to exit from this fantom instance of Skype.  It seems to be fine again when i reboot, but I'd like to know how to avoid doing this.
[05:19] <Phildo> maney, that did it! nice work. thanks.
[05:19] <Crell> Thanks, cafuego_.
[05:19] <bruenig> PoofDaddy, killall skype<tab><tab>
[05:20] <Crell> I'm going to try a bit more to figure out what's dying here, since it may be my error after all...
[05:20] <maney> Phildo: nothing like having done the same stupid thing a dozen times over the years :-)
[05:20] <bruenig> PoofDaddy, it is either going to be killall skype or killall skype-bin (I forget which)
[05:20] <Phildo> :>
[05:20] <conga> Are there any LCD monitor that support 1ms respond time?
[05:20] <PoofDaddy> bruenig: I did the former and I got some output.  How do I interpret it?
[05:20] <conga> or 0ms
[05:21] <bruenig> PoofDaddy, well what is the output
[05:21] <Voytek> Hi... I'm having a bit of a problem: my external USB drive has 11 GB free and yet when I try to copy stuff onto it, I get an out of memory error after about 200 MB. Any advice?
[05:21] <PoofDaddy> bruenig:  ~ $ killall skype

[05:22] <bruenig> hmmm
[05:22] <zyth> yay.
[05:22] <tonyyarusso> PoofDaddy: Try again in ten minutes.
[05:22] <bruenig> the tab tab was supposed to allow him to make his decision, woops
[05:22] <Pelo> Voytek,  make sure the trashcan is empty
[05:22] <Voytek> It is empty. I deleted .Trash
[05:23] <Voytek> (rm -r .Trash)
[05:23] <bruenig> harry_, does that work? I didn't test it
[05:23] <Voytek> it was completely empty, actually. It's an external HD, with two partitions. One (the 11GB one) is completely free.
[05:23] <Pelo> Voytek,  I suppose you've also ejected it and remounted it ?
[05:23] <harry_> yeah.
[05:23] <Voytek> yes, restarted, ejected, etc. :)
[05:24] <harry_> what is the -ne for?
[05:24] <bruenig> harry_, not equal
[05:24] <Voytek> No worries, I'm sure I missed something, but it's bugging me and I'm at a loss at this point.
[05:25] <Pelo> Voytek,  I had some problems in  dapper with too many files at once ,  have you tried copying them in smaller batches
[05:25] <harry_> ok. and the $ tells it that it is a variable?
[05:25] <bruenig> harry_, yeah
[05:25] <harry_> why does one of them not have it then?
[05:25] <Voytek> ah, that might be it! Is there any way I can tell Ubuntu to copy a certain portion of a folder? It's one big folder (a cache folder for a research project) with 200,000 files. So I can't really do folders.
[05:26] <Pelo> Voytek,  not that I know of , sorry,
[05:26] <yell0w> Voytek, what portion ?
[05:26] <bruenig> harry_, the first n, sets the variable, the third n redefines the variable
[05:26] <bruenig> harry_, so you aren't using what is stored in n, you are actually setting n
[05:26] <bruenig> when you are using what is stored in n you use the $
[05:27] <harry_> Thanks.
[05:27] <Voytek> yellow -- I'm trying to copy a folder with over 200,000 files to an external HD... it's giving me out of memory errors after 20,000 files every time. I have the memory, but am at a loss of how to proceed.
[05:27] <Pelo> Voytek,  make a copy of the folder to your desktop and then cut /paste the files to the usb drive
[05:27] <jetscreamer> tar, rsync
[05:27] <kondor101> im actually going to physically break my pc into bit in a short while
[05:28] <Pelo> kondor101,  what is the problem ?
[05:28] <Voytek> ah, fair enough, i guess if that's it, then that's it. Manually copying takes a long time though.. (and tarring it also gives me a good 4 hour wait to untar)
[05:28] <kondor101> stupid stupid port blocking lol
[05:28] <jetscreamer> only copy 10,000 at a time
[05:28] <Voytek> can i make a scrip tthat does that?
[05:28] <Voytek> *script
[05:29] <brokenbin> what's the command to format a harddrive?
[05:29] <jetscreamer> probably, but that's beyond my abilities... try #bash or #perl maybe
[05:29] <Pelo> Voytek,  you might want to try and do it with a command line  like    cp /path/a*  /mnt/destination
[05:29] <bruenig> Voytek, what is the script meant to do
[05:29] <jetscreamer> mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda1 for instance
[05:29] <jetscreamer> or mkfs.vfat or .jfs or .whatever
[05:29] <Voytek> bruenig - copy a subset of a folder to another folder
[05:29] <kondor101> it is driving me insane, i know my interface is eth0,  i want to unblock a certain port, it list it in iptables as accept, but still i am stealth
[05:29] <Gtrys> Can anyone help me with a Vista/Ubuntu priblem? I found out that Gparted is incompatible with the new NTFS file system in Vista....what do I do now?
[05:29] <Voytek> Pelo - i'll try that, thanks! brb
[05:29] <Gtrys> I can
[05:29] <Gtrys> I can't acces Vista
[05:30] <naut> if I have a service running in the bakground
[05:30] <Pelo> Voytek,  I 'm not sure what the wildcard caracters are in bash  , you might need to check
[05:30] <jetscreamer> restore from backup
[05:30] <naut> and I nice the priority of thta service
[05:30] <bruenig> Voytek, are you copying or moving, because I can think of a way to move 20,000 at a time
[05:30] <Voytek> either or is fine.
[05:30] <Gtrys> anyone?
[05:30] <kondor101> its 4:30am, i have been working on this problem half the night, unblocking a port should not take half a night, this is just stupid now
[05:30] <naut> would any other processes it kicks off inherit the niceness of the parent?
[05:31] <jetscreamer> kondor101: i know nothing... try shorewall maybe
[05:31] <bruenig> Voytek, do any of these files have spaces in them?
[05:31] <Voytek> bruenig - nope.
[05:31] <yell0w> kondor101, firestarter ?
[05:31] <Voytek> (but hyphens and numbers, along with letters)
[05:31] <kondor101> which one?
[05:31] <Pelo> Gtrys,    partition your hdd in two ,  reinstall vista on one and ubuntu on the other ?
[05:31] <kondor101> shorewall or firestarter?
[05:31] <Gtrys> can someone help me install ntfs resize?
[05:31] <jetscreamer> either/or   or both
[05:31] <Gtrys> Vista was preinstalled
[05:31] <kondor101> easiest?
[05:32] <yell0w> kondor101, never tried shorewall, started out with firestarter and it works
[05:32] <jetscreamer> Gtrys: you'll probably need to restore from restore cd/dvd
[05:32] <Gtrys> I have a recover partition, main vista part., and the linux partitions
[05:32] <jetscreamer> kondor101: firestarter probably has more support in ubuntu but i'm guessing
[05:32] <kondor101> i will go with firestarter, and make another cup of tea
[05:32] <Voytek> Pelo, bruenig: seems like cp a* /media/<external hd> works!
[05:32] <Voytek> (for now :) )
[05:33] <jetscreamer> cp -a you mean?
[05:33] <Pelo> Voytek,  contrats
[05:33] <jetscreamer> what were you doing before?
[05:33] <Gtrys> Ubuntu really needs to get on this....Gparted needs to be compatible with the new Vista Boot software and the new NTFS...i am getting very frustrated.
[05:33] <yell0w> kondor101,  it's pretty easy to use, couples of clicks to open a port
[05:33] <Pelo> jetscreamer,  it's a wildcard thing
[05:33] <kondor101> well lets pray :D
[05:33] <jetscreamer> Gtrys: ubuntu doesn't dev gparted afaik
[05:33] <Pelo> Voytek,  so then you do   b* and c* and so one
[05:33] <Pelo> so on
[05:33] <bruenig> dang
[05:33] <jetscreamer> Voytek: you didn't do -R or -a so subdirs won't get copied
[05:34] <Gtrys> I guess I am not thinking in the open source world  :)
[05:34] <Voytek> jetscreamer - don't need 'em, this is one big folder without subfolders.
[05:34] <jetscreamer> Gtrys: i borked out my ntfs drive with gparted once
[05:34] <jetscreamer> ah ok
[05:34] <jetscreamer> Gtrys: i reinstalled
[05:34] <Pelo> jetscreamer,   he's using  a* as a filter to cut down on the number of files being copied at once
[05:34] <bruenig> I was going to suggest something like mv $(ls | grep -m 20000 .) /path/to/new/directory
[05:34] <Gtrys> Ubuntu has to realize this is a guaranteed way to loose users to Vista
[05:34] <jetscreamer> Pelo: yeah i got that once it got explained to me
[05:35] <bruenig> and you can loop that with while to stop when no more files are left
[05:35] <Gtrys> I am one of them
[05:35] <jetscreamer> Gtrys: or ms knows that...
[05:35] <Gtrys> ther we go again....
[05:35] <Voytek> bruenig -- im not much of a bash guy, so does that move the first 20000 files?
[05:35] <jetscreamer> vista bootloader will overwriite the mbr too
[05:35] <Pelo> bruenig,  yours is more leet and probably better,   mine is just a  quick fix
[05:35] <Gtrys> Ubuntu must adjust to what MS does if it wants to compete
[05:35] <jetscreamer> heh
[05:36] <bruenig> Voytek, yeah, probably could move that down to 15,000 or something to be safe
[05:36] <jetscreamer> how does one compete with a multi billion dollar company
[05:36] <Voytek> bruenig - how would i move the next 20000 though?
[05:36] <Gtrys> by making the partition software compatible
[05:36] <yell0w> jetscreamer, with a search engine ?
[05:36] <Pelo> jetscreamer,  hit and run   , run very fast and very far
[05:36] <Gtrys> to work with vista
[05:36] <atoponce> Gtrys: your best bet? completely remove vista, install ubuntu on the full harddrive, then put vista in a virtual machine with ubuntu as the host os
[05:37] <jetscreamer> buy a new hd and install on that one
[05:37] <jetscreamer> or use an old one
[05:37] <Gtrys> Vista is installed on an HP notebook with the recovery CD's.
[05:37] <Pelo> Gtrys,  the problem is that ntfs is propriatary,  which makes it tedious to develop support
[05:37] <bruenig> Voytek, you would use a while loop
[05:38] <Voytek> oh right, cuz we're moving, not copying!
[05:38] <Gtrys> no body has any tips then besides reinstalling?
[05:38] <Voytek> that's actually pretty nifty
[05:38] <jetscreamer> Gtrys: it's the solution i came up with for myself if that helps
[05:38] <Pelo> Gtrys,  if  you can't access vista anymore you'll probably have to do it anyway
[05:39] <jetscreamer> i had to order the install medium cuz i didn't save the recovery partiton :o
[05:39] <Voytek> bruenig - now I understand. I'll try that next time then since this'll be a regular occurrence (im moving the files so I can create more, *sigh*)
[05:39] <Gtrys> I read that you can use ntfs resize to fix the partition.
[05:39] <jetscreamer> i've heard that
[05:39] <jetscreamer> i've heard you can use gparted also...
[05:39] <yell0w> Voytek, or shell out $50 and get another hdd ?
[05:40] <yell0w> :P
[05:40] <shea> hi-lo
[05:40] <Gtrys> gparted isn't compatible with the new NTFS
[05:40] <jetscreamer> :o
[05:40] <jetscreamer> afaik it's not 'new' but i digress
[05:40] <Voytek> yellow -- haha, that's a long term solution :P
[05:41] <kondor101> that firestarter has not helped, is it a firewall or something to do with iptables?
[05:41] <yell0w> Voytek, exactly
[05:41] <Pelo> Gtrys,  then you only have two choices,  repartition the disk and reinstall windows and then ubuntu, or buy an extra disk,  but since you said this is a laptop you only have option 1
[05:41] <yell0w> kondor101, what do you want to open ?
[05:41] <Pelo> kondor101,  firestarter is a frontend for iptables
[05:41] <Gtrys> I'm goint to try ntfsresize
[05:41] <DrStein> hello
[05:42] <kondor101> yell0w, to be honest any port would do!!! I cant seem to be anything but stealth on torrents
[05:42] <DrStein> are you guys giving support for 7.04 beta?
[05:42] <Gtrys> how do i install ntfsresize?
[05:42] <Pelo> kondor101,  what client are you using
[05:42] <atoponce> DrStein: #ubuntu+1
[05:42] <brophat> I loaded a sound driver with modprobe, snd-au8820 to be specific. Do I need to do anything else to get the sound working?
[05:42] <yell0w> kondor101, did you do that in firestarter ?
[05:42] <DrStein> atoponce: thanks
[05:42] <kondor101> Pelo, ive tried several, at the moment i am using deluge (which is quite nice i must add)
[05:43] <NickGarvey> brophat: restart alsa
[05:43] <Gtrys> I got the .tar.gz folder
[05:43] <yell0w> kondor101, once that's done, you need to open your router as well
[05:43] <NickGarvey> brophat: (you might need to do depmod -a first... but I'm not sure about that)
[05:43] <Pelo> kondor101,   you shouldnt, need to open any port,  unless you've already messed with iptable to block stuff,  do you have a router ? maybe you need to forward your port there
[05:43] <brophat> NickGarvey depmod to see if I need to load more mods that that mod needs?
[05:44] <jetscreamer> ah... Transactional NTFS (TxF) infrastructure in Windows Vista
[05:44] <kondor101> yea but the router should be open, i have not touched it and it was all working fine until i installed 7.04,  but the obvious thig is for me to go and check the router
[05:44] <yell0w> kondor101, clean install ?
[05:44] <NickGarvey> brophat: yeah.. but I would suggest just restarting alsa first, see if it works, and go from there
[05:44] <kondor101> as far as i am aware the only codes i have used on iptables is ACCEPT
[05:44] <brophat> NickGarvey what is the restart command for alsa ?
[05:45] <Gtrys> can someone help me with installing ntfsresize?
[05:45] <Pelo> kondor101,  I do agree that deluge is very nice but it's not for me untill it has rss download capabilities
[05:45] <NickGarvey> sudo /etc/init.d/alsa(hittabhere) restart
[05:45] <yell0w> kondor101, ahhh, that is why there are such things as firestarter that does that for you
[05:45] <yell0w> kondor101, for simple folks like me :P
[05:45] <shiva> how to exit form help in ubuntu command mode
[05:45] <Geoffrey2> I'm installing Edgey on a desktop computer here....needed partitions are /, swap, and ?
[05:46] <natalia> hola
[05:46] <brophat> NickGarvey ok but funny name hittabhere for a directory hahhaah J/K
[05:46] <Pelo> kondor101,   where exactly do you get the info that you are ain stealth mode ?
[05:46] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, that should be it, but i'd recommend one more for /home if you want
[05:46] <r-webb> ubuntu 5.11 live cd question. what's the default root password?
[05:46] <atoponce> !sudo | r-webb
[05:46] <ubotu> r-webb: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:47] <shiva> how to exit form help in ubuntu command mode
[05:47] <mojo> What does it mean when my /var/log/dpkg.log has a bunch of half-installed and half-configured entries?
[05:47] <Gtrys> no one?
[05:47] <brophat> NickGarvey won't a space work just as well as tab?
[05:47] <bruenig> Voytek, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12715/ (if you chmod +x this script it can be used like this) "nameofscript /full/path/to/directory /full/path/to/destination"
[05:47] <mojo> Is that necessarily a bad thing?
[05:47] <jetscreamer> try q shiva
[05:47] <NickGarvey> brophat: no, because the tab autocompletes
[05:47] <atoponce> shiva: what program are you in?
[05:47] <brophat> NickGarvey ahh ok ic
[05:47] <brophat> kool
[05:47] <r-webb> then what's the user/pass to install 5.11 from live to partition?
[05:47] <don_jr> What is the package name to download and install the full KDE interface?
[05:47] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, which would help when your system crash or you want a clean update to new version
[05:48] <Geoffrey2> yell0w, ok, so root, home, and swap.....and I'll probably want an extra partition for data since I'm dual booting?
[05:48] <shiva> q its recording
[05:48] <atoponce> r-webb: there is no 5.11 version... there is 5.10 and 6.06...
[05:48] <Pelo> kondor101,  which version of deluge are you using ?
[05:48] <r-webb> breezy badger
[05:48] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, uhm you never said anything about dual booting
[05:48] <atoponce> r-webb: ok. just insert the disk, reboot, and start installing
[05:48] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, you can create maximum 4 primary partitions
[05:49] <Gtrys> ?
[05:49] <tehquickness> has anyone installed maya on ubuntu?
[05:49] <shiva> ubuntu lamp
[05:49] <Geoffrey2> yell0w, oh, sorry...yes, I'm dual booting....yep, four primary or three primary and an extended
[05:49] <ix86bp> anyone got messenger to connect msn live server?
[05:49] <don_jr> Anyone know the name of the KDE package so I can install it?
[05:49] <mojo> tehquickness: there is a linux version?  i thought it was win only
[05:50] <bruenig> don_jr, kubuntu-desktop
[05:50] <r-webb> can i install it directly from the boot prompt? i thought logon was necessary.
[05:50] <atoponce> don_jr: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[05:50] <don_jr> bruenig atoponce thank you very much!
[05:50] <atoponce> r-webb: yup. there is no login required
[05:50] <SeanM-IA> Good evening - I am a newbie, still learning about Ubuntu.  I need some assistance with compiling packages with C.
[05:50] <tehquickness> mojo, there is a rpm version
[05:50] <r-webb> thanks, i'll get to work. lol
[05:50] <atoponce> r-webb: just reboot from the disk, and follow the onscreen prompts
[05:50] <mojo> tehquickness: cool
[05:50] <shiva> how to exit form help in ubuntu command mode
[05:51] <atoponce> shiva: what program are you in?
[05:51] <genii> !compile | SeanM-IA
[05:51] <ubotu> SeanM-IA: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[05:51] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, sounds like you know what you need to do :) any other extra for data is your choice
[05:51] <tehquickness> mojo, however it does not install correctly with alien
[05:51] <yell0w> extra partition*
[05:51] <mojo> tehquickness: dependencies?
[05:51] <shiva> iam in ubuntu lamp
[05:51] <atoponce> shiva: what is ubuntu lamp?
[05:51] <shiva> iam in ubuntu  server lamp
[05:51] <atoponce> shiva: tell me the command you entered to get into that help
[05:51] <tehquickness> hmmm no its some weird error
[05:52] <Geoffrey2> yell0w, do any of the linux partitions need to be primary partitions, or could I just stick them all in a single extended partition?
[05:52] <SeanM-IA> genii and ubotu - will check those out.  Both packages I have tried to compile with the ./compile command have failed.
[05:52] <shiva> just now i was trying to check my sql
[05:52] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, / so that you can boot
[05:52] <shiva> then i press f1
[05:52] <tehquickness> mojo, it was some weird error
[05:52] <SeanM-IA> gcc complains that it can't find a file or directory.
[05:52] <atoponce> shiva: so are you looking at a gui? or just a console?
[05:52] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, and /home, but then that's my personal pref
[05:53] <shiva> just consle
[05:53] <Voytek> bruenig -- thank you! i will try that. brb (thanks VERY much)
[05:53] <shiva> i just want to exit from help
[05:53] <atoponce> shiva: then f1 doesn't do anything. if you were in a gui, it would pull up another window
[05:53] <genii> SeanM-IA: That is not the correct directive :) Usually you would do first: ./configure   to make the  Makefile   then the command make  to build the source
[05:53] <mojo> tehquickness: sry .. never tried it but my lil brother has played with maya on windows... he does all kinds of art
[05:53] <tehquickness> yeah
[05:53] <atoponce> shiva: if another window came up, then alt-f4 would work
[05:53] <shiva> iam in consle mode now not in gui
[05:53] <atoponce> shiva: or clicking on the 'x' in the upper right hand corner
[05:54] <uber_newb> hey all anybody here use skype with ubuntu edgy?
[05:54] <uber_newb> i'm having some audio issues
[05:54] <mojo> tehquickness: play with the other progs much, like blender?
[05:54] <uber_newb> the mic aint working
[05:54] <Geoffrey2> still rather new at Ubuntu....applications install in root or home?
[05:54] <atoponce> shiva: are you in console via ssh?
[05:54] <tehquickness> Yeah I like blender
[05:54] <bimberi>  /win 17
[05:54] <bimberi> sry
[05:54] <Pelo> uber_newb,  check that it is not turned off in alsamixer
[05:54] <mojo> uber_newb: you may need to unmute it in the advanced alsa settings...
[05:55] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, /, home is pretty much your personal config and personal files
[05:55] <yell0w> Geoffrey2, check PM
[05:55] <SeanM-IA> genii - sorry, you are correct.  ./configure, that is what I am doing.  My bad.
[05:55] <andrejkw> wow
[05:55] <mojo> uber_newb: right click on vol icon to open volume controls, or try alsamixer at the command prompt, which may show more options
[05:55] <SeanM-IA> Actually, I do    sudo ./configure
[05:55] <andrejkw> once would expect #gentoo to have the most users, but appearently #ubuntu does
[05:55] <shiva> via root
[05:55] <Pelo> andrejkw,  no this isn'T #wow, this is #ubuntu
[05:55] <andrejkw> *one
[05:56] <atoponce> shiva: but ssh?
[05:56] <genii> Geoffrey2:  Applications install into a place like /usr/bin or /bin or occasionally /opt    Then the binaries are availablwe for all users to run. The applications are available for all users then to run. The user-specifuc things to an app is in the users home dir. The applicaions themselves are installed as root
[05:56] <brophat> what is command to remove module from alsa?
[05:56] <asc> Anybody tried saving bittorrent downloads to a FAT partition?  I'm finding that in every program, the last piece is always bad.
[05:56] <mojo> Pelo: don't let M$ have the word wow.  I've been saying wow for, like, my whole life dude.  Next they'll think they can have "rad" and "awesome".  Sheesh!
[05:56] <atoponce> shiva: you installed what? 1: ubuntu desktop (gui)? 2: ubuntu server (no gui at all)
[05:57] <yell0w> mojo, they have sheesh as far as i'm concerned
[05:57] <mojo> lol @ yell0w
[05:57] <shiva> ubuntu server
[05:57] <atoponce> shiva: can start your replies with my nick? it's easier to see in this busy channel
[05:57] <shiva> ubuntu server no gui
[05:57] <Pelo> asc, fat32 can'T handle files larger then 4 gig I beleive that might be the problem
[05:58] <yell0w> mojo, yah, as in M$ ? sheeshhh!
[05:58] <atoponce> shiva: then, if you installed ubuntu-server, then pressing f1 won't do anything
[05:58] <atoponce> shiva: the key is not bound
[05:58] <atoponce> shiva: so, you should still see the command prompt
[05:58] <kondor101> LOL!!! all that time and it was my router being clever,  doh!!!
[05:58] <asc> Pelo: They've been smaller than 4 gigs
[05:58] <mojo> egg-zaktlee
[05:58] <shiva> ya i got it
[05:58] <andrejkw> anyone heard of the KDNOME yet
[05:58] <shiva> tq
[05:58] <kondor101> thanks guys
[05:58] <atoponce> shiva: np...
[05:58] <brophat> NickGarvey still got probs. what is command that removes sound module cause i think we loaded another one as well and maybe two sound modules loaded at the same time is breaking it?
[05:58] <yell0w> kondor101, check your bases my friend ;)
[05:58] <Pelo> asc, have you only tried linux clients ?  give ubuntu on wine a try
[05:58] <mojo> shiva.. as in hindu god or netmodem?
[05:59] <asc> Pelo: Hey, that is an idea.  Thanks.
[05:59] <shiva> is it possible to switch console mode to gui mode
[05:59] <kondor101> sometimes i hate the fact i jumped into ubuntu with both feet (no windows at all), but when you realise your stupid mistakes and get things running it feels rather nice
[05:59] <atoponce> shiva: you need to install the ubuntu-desktop package
[06:00] <atoponce> shiva: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[06:00] <atoponce> shiva: it may take a while though...
[06:00] <atoponce> :)
[06:00] <PanzerMKZ> and will download
[06:00] <PanzerMKZ> about 400meg worth of stuff
[06:00] <kondor101> but i do love this OS and so does my 5 yr old son (who hates windows as he struggles with it, go figure!!)
[06:00] <shiva> noprob rite for ubuntu server
[06:00] <uber_newb> no dice
[06:00] <atoponce> shiva: ?
[06:00] <PanzerMKZ> I love ubuntu server
[06:01] <uber_newb> i tried testing by install audacity.. and i'm still having issues with mic
[06:01] <yell0w> shiva, nope
[06:01] <mojo> rly, d00dz... I am about to do a major install but need to know if i should be worried about something:  after edgy install it did the "you need updates" dance (of shiva?, j/k).. srsly, though, it took 4ever and in the end LOTS of pkgs are "half-installed" and "half-configured" in /var/log/dpkg.log.  Is this normal?
[06:01] <Pelo> kondor101,  what does your 5yrs old hate about windows ? just curious about the evaluation a youngins could make
[06:01] <yell0w> shiva, just do sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[06:01] <PanzerMKZ> why aptitude and not apt-get
[06:01] <PanzerMKZ> ?
[06:01] <atoponce> mojo: do 'sudo aptitude update' then 'sudo aptitude upgrade'
[06:01] <jetscreamer> because
[06:01] <PanzerMKZ> on server at command line
[06:02] <atoponce> mojo: that should fix it. if not 'sudo apt-get install -f'
[06:02] <mojo> atoponce: thks... so taht will catch the unconfigured pkgs?
[06:02] <atoponce> mojo: should
[06:02] <mojo> atoponce: will do!!!
[06:02] <shiva> u want me to insert cd ha?
[06:02] <shiva> desttop one?
[06:02] <uber_newb> anybody have some tips on microphone
[06:02] <IcyMind> you talk on it
[06:03] <Pelo> uber_newb, look up your problem in the forum
[06:03] <atoponce> shiva: no. do it in the console: 'sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop' will get it from the online repos
[06:03] <kondor101> well, i think he likes the fact he can take screen caps and print them out easily,  he hates the fact he cant do that with certain video files in windows.  He also seems a dab hand at making XP do some wierd stuff, which he never seems to do in ubuntu
[06:03] <yell0w> PanzerMKZ, aptitude and apt-get are similar in function, i just happen to like aptitude
[06:03] <PanzerMKZ> see that is what I thought. I just normally use apt-get
[06:03] <shiva> i dont hav net connection rite now
[06:03] <SeanM-IA> genii:  Looked at the help page suggested.  Seems to be what I am trying now.  The error I am getting is when gcc tries to take over.  gcc says "conftest.c >&5   then on the next line, it complains that /usr/bin/ld: crt1.0 no such fil
[06:03] <atoponce> PanzerMKZ: aptitude has better dependancy handling then apt-get
[06:04] <atoponce> shiva: you'll need it before installing that meta-package
[06:04] <Pelo> kondor101,  :-)
[06:04] <shiva> I GOT CD
[06:04] <shiva> CAN I  INSTALL WITH TAT?
[06:05] <bimberi> !caps | shiva
[06:05] <ubotu> shiva: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[06:05] <atoponce> shiva: no need to shout. i'm right here
[06:05] <atoponce> shiva: do you have the desktop cd? or just the server cd?
[06:05] <PanzerMKZ> would that need to be kubuntu
[06:05] <PanzerMKZ> cd
[06:06] <shiva> i already installed server cd
[06:06] <genii> SeanM-IA: This looks to be a mismatch in the Makefile that points to the incorrect directory for the program "ld"
[06:06] <Pelo> PanzerMKZ,  if you want kde yes
[06:06] <atoponce> shiva: i know that. do you have the 'desktop cd'?
[06:06] <kondor101> Pelo, i have 3 kids, 5, 9 and 11,  they all seem to like it better, but the 5 yr old really flies around it.  The lack of root really makes it easy for him as his mistakes are not  big i guess.
[06:07] <mojo> atoponce: well both update and install -f gave 0 0 0 for pkgs to install/update/remove.  maybe it will be okay???
[06:07] <shiva> yes
[06:07] <shiva> i hav
[06:07] <mojo> atoponce: i don't want to do a dpkg-reconfigure --all unless i really have to
[06:07] <atoponce> shiva: then yes, you can install from the cd. it will take a very long time...
[06:07] <atoponce> shiva: just add this to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:
[06:07] <SeanM-IA> genii:  Looking at the makefile.in file now....
[06:07] <genii> SeanM-IA: Open the file "configure" and find a line something like "LD_PATH=/usr/bin"   and change the path to just /bin   then run the .configure   and then make agaigain
[06:08] <mojo> atoponce: and i am not good enough at shell scripting to grep out the half-baked files from dpkg.log and feed them to dkpg-reconfigure.  there are LOTS of them
[06:09] <atoponce> mojo: hmmm. there is a way to check if anything is broken, but i forget it off hand. just a sec
[06:09] <genii> SeanM-IA: Alternately you can put a symbolic link in /usr/bin  that points to /bin/ld
[06:09] <PanzerMKZ> so do I
[06:09] <PanzerMKZ> bash scripting is cool
[06:09] <atoponce> shiva: deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 6.10 _Edgy Eft_ - Release i386 (20061025)] / edgy
[06:09] <genii> But this is bad practice
[06:09] <atoponce> > main restricted
[06:09] <atoponce> shiva: deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 6.10 _Edgy Eft_ - Release i386 (20061025)] / edgy main restricted
[06:09] <atoponce> that's what i mean
[06:10] <atoponce> shiva: and comment out any of the repos that require the net
[06:10] <SeanM-IA> genii:  not sure what a symbolic link is yet.  :-)  Looking at the config file now.
[06:10] <jjcoolyo> how do you get maple sotry to work on ubuntu
[06:10] <b0xy|MacPro> ok. booted with 6.10 install CD and all the graphics are distorted
[06:10] <Pelo> mojo http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php  http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/index.html
[06:10] <mojo> thx Pelo
[06:10] <b0xy|MacPro> anyone have any ideas?
[06:10] <mojo> :)
[06:10] <Crell> SeanM-IA: A symbolic link, or symlink, is basically the same thing as a Shortcut in Windows, only better implemented.
[06:11] <kinema> Does anyone know of a way to limit a user's session/login time (e.g. 60 minutes per session)?    I need to limit users session lengths on terminals in a public library.
[06:11] <Pelo> b0xy|MacPro,  try using the alternate install cd , it's a txt interface
[06:11] <atoponce> mojo: 'sudo apt-get check' i think?
[06:11] <Pelo> kinema,  check the forum,  I'm sure you'll find someting like that in there
[06:12] <b0xy|MacPro> Pelo: alternate install CD? as in download a different one? or it's an option on the initial CD boot menu? i didn't see it
[06:12] <mojo> atoponce: i'll give it a try.. and thanks for helping
[06:12] <Pelo> b0xy|MacPro,  a different one , I don't know if you can do a txt install with the live cd,  try and check the menu at the start , maybe you can ,
[06:12] <atoponce> mojo: np
[06:13] <shiva> already insert the desktop cd wat command i hav use now
[06:13] <SeanM-IA> genii:  No LD_PATH in the configure file.  :-(
[06:13] <uber_newb> rtf now means read the forum
[06:14] <atoponce> shiva: did you edit /etc/apt/sources.list?
[06:14] <b0xy|MacPro> Pelo: I'll look around. thanks
[06:14] <Pelo> uber_newb,  did you check the alsamixer settings to make sure your mic isn'T muted ?
[06:15] <atoponce> shiva: *please* reply by starting with my nick
[06:15] <atoponce> shiva: otherwise, i have a hard time catching it
[06:15] <genii> SeanM-IA: OK, so as a fast fix without delving more into the Makefiles and so on, the simplest think is the symbolic link. So issue:      sudo ln -s /bin/ld /usr/bin/ld
[06:16] <g0su> A similar program of kalarm for kde please?
[06:16] <g0su> for gnome sorry xD
[06:16] <uber_newb> my alsa mixer is set appropriately
[06:16] <Pelo> g0su, check in synaptic for alarm
[06:17] <g0su> Pelo, i dont see nothing only kalarm and xmms alarm
[06:17] <Pelo> uber_newb,  is your mic working properly in other applications
[06:17] <uber_newb> well it workied in windows
[06:17] <SeanM-IA> genii:  OK, did that, got a "file exists" message.  ran the ./configure - same error.  :-(  Wants to be difficult.
[06:17] <Pelo> uber_newb,  does it work elsewhere in  ubuntu
[06:17] <SeanM-IA> Sorry to be a pain.
[06:18] <genii> Bleh I think I reversed the target/source again for ln
[06:18] <genii> I always need to "man ln" LOL
[06:19] <genii> SeanM-IA: Try instead: ln -s /usr/bin/ld /bin/ld
[06:19] <atoponce> genii: think of it this way: it's the same format as cp <source> <destination>
[06:19] <uber_newb> it breaks in audacity
[06:19] <uber_newb> how about another app
[06:19] <TooR4u> Is there any program like "Microsoft student partner"...?
[06:19] <TooR4u> in opensource
[06:20] <genii> atoponce :)
[06:20] <harpette> TooR4u: what's it do?
[06:20] <atoponce> TooR4u: what is MS student partner?
[06:20] <bill> hello... quick question... AFAICT, the apache-ssl package does not have mod_proxy included, and there is no separate package for it?  is there no way to get mod_proxy without compiling it by hand?
[06:21] <Gambit-> hey chaps
[06:21] <SeanM-IA> genii: No error this time on the command ln command...  but still no luck on the configure command.
[06:21] <Gambit-> anyone know how to perminently turn off powersave mode so that the monitor never turns off?  I've disabled the screensaver, but it still seems to be turning off after about 15 minutes.
[06:21] <SeanM-IA> I must have something gummed up somewhere, since it happens on two different packages.
[06:21] <harpette> i'm looking for a tool that'll help me move the gnome-art backgrounds i downloaded to a system-wide location, say /usr/share/backgrounds/, by updating the xml files in /usr/share/gnome-background-properties/
[06:22] <TooR4u> harpette, atoponce It is a student program, ....Throgh this the person can able to test all beta versions of microsoft & he can access all world servers of microsoft and he will have access to all microsoft digital libraries....etc
[06:22] <bimberi> bill: it comes with apache[2] 
[06:22] <harpette> Gambit-: yes, the screensaver is not the culprit. but i don't remember where that is. in the kernel config, i believe.
[06:22] <genii> SeanM-IA: Remember to be in the directory in which the Makefile is. The, exactly so:    sudo ./configure         <<---   the dot and slash are important                     then do:  sudo make
[06:22] <TooR4u> Any distribution offers this?
[06:22] <atoponce> TooR4u: so, basically, they're just giving you access to software?
[06:22] <TooR4u> student program?
[06:22] <Gambit-> harpette, ergh, apci I'm sure, I just don't know how to disable it.
[06:22] <Pelo> harpette,  make a small bash script    http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php
[06:22] <SeanM-IA> genii:  I am in that directory, yes.
[06:23] <TooR4u> atoponce, not for the source code..:P
[06:23] <genii> SeanM-IA:   The dot and slash indicate to run the program with that name in the current directory
[06:23] <atoponce> TooR4u: no. of course not, but you get to test drive all the latest and greatest in MS software? is that what i'm understanding?
[06:23] <bill> bimberi: i don't want to use apache2... does the plain apache 1.3 package have it? and if so, why doesn't the apache-ssl package have it?
[06:23] <TooR4u> yah
[06:24] <Pharaoh_Atem> what version of gcc is used to build ubuntu kernels in dapper?
[06:24] <atoponce> TooR4u: well then, yeah. of course. apt is the single greatest package manager that gives you access to over 20,000 software programs
[06:24] <TooR4u> Any distribution offers this?(student program..)
[06:24] <Pharaoh_Atem> i need to know if gcc-3.4 or gcc-4.0 is used so i can build ndiswrapper-1.35
[06:24] <atoponce> TooR4u: and, surprise, it's built in ubuntu/debian! :)
[06:24] <SeanM-IA> genii:  I verified I am in that directory; did an ls, and I can see the files for that program all listed.  Configure, makefile, etc.
[06:24] <genii> !info gcc dapper | Pharoaoh_Atem
[06:24] <ubotu> pharoaoh_atem: gcc: The GNU C compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.0.3-1 (dapper), package size 4 kB, installed size 64 kB
[06:24] <harpette> Pelo: to write a program you have to know what it's gonna do; i don't know what to put in those xml files. And i'm not even sure that the xml files are all that's needed.
[06:24] <port101> @ Pharaoh i had to install gcc-3.4
[06:25] <chikogollo> server irc.terra.cl
[06:25] <atoponce> chikogollo: is that a question?
[06:25] <Shrimpy_> hello whats the command for the x-org thingy? (i'm going to change my res again)
[06:25] <Pharaoh_Atem> port101, to build kernel modules?
[06:25] <Pelo> harpette,  I was just thinking of a small bash script to copy your files form a to b
[06:25] <TooR4u> atoponce, i am not talking to about the access to softwares.....
[06:25] <harpette> Pelo: thank you. that's not my issue though
[06:26] <genii> SeanM-IA: So after you type:   sudo ./configure                it gives some error?
[06:26] <TooR4u> it is greate if we selected for microsoft student partnet
[06:26] <atoponce> TooR4u: then i don't understand what the student program is
[06:26] <bullium> Here's something funny...it was easier to get Ubuntu 6.10 and Beryl running on a new computer than Windows XP MCE 2K5
[06:26] <TooR4u> atoponce,and he will have direct interview
[06:26] <port101> @ Shrimpy sudo dpkg-reconfigre x-server-xorg
[06:26] <SeanM-IA> genii:  Yes.  It never finished the process, complaining that it cannot find a file/directory that it is looking for.
[06:26] <Shrimpy_> :port101 thnaks
[06:26] <TooR4u> okkokk
[06:26] <TooR4u> okey
[06:26] <atoponce> TooR4u: do you have a link that i can look at it a bit better?
[06:27] <TooR4u> search in google
[06:27] <TooR4u> microsoft student partner
[06:27] <bimberi> bill: hm, no the apache package doesn't have it.  Not sure what the story is sorry
[06:27] <Shrimpy_> port101: saying command not found
[06:27] <genii> SeanM-IA: Did you first install the package   build-essential   before beginning to attampt any compiling?
[06:27] <harpette> TooR4u: no no we don't search in google to understand your request here
[06:28] <SeanM-IA> genii:  No, I do not remember that one.  Let me check my package manager.
[06:28] <TooR4u> okey 1m
[06:28] <GauntletMobile> Can anyone help me troubleshoot booting the Ubuntu installer from a network?
[06:28] <harpette> GauntletMobile: how does that work?
[06:28] <TooR4u> harpette, http://student-partners.com/Default.aspx
[06:28] <SeanM-IA> genii:  No, it is NOT installed.  Doing that now.
[06:29] <Paladine> hi could someone help with an X problem please.  I am unable to load X due to the nvidia kernel module filing to load.  I have removed the packages, reinstalled it and it is still not working.  Any ideas?  I am stuck in console :/
[06:29] <port101> @ shripmy http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/base/dpkg
[06:29] <genii> GauntletMobile: A very good tutorial is here: http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install
[06:29] <Pharaoh_Atem> so what version of gcc is used to build KERNEL MODULES?
[06:29] <port101> u wil hav to install that package
[06:29] <SeanM-IA> genii:  Could it be that easy....
[06:29] <Pelo> Paladine,  sudo dpkg recongifure x-server.xorg
[06:29] <Pelo> I think
[06:29] <zen> can I remove cron + anacron and install fcron?  Or is that not recommended?
[06:30] <atoponce> TooR4u: all i'm seeing is that this partner program is giving academic agencies access to proprietary ms software at reduced, and sometimes free, discounts
[06:30] <atoponce> TooR4u: other than that, i'm failing to see the objective of it
[06:30] <bimberi> !install | GauntletMobile, more info here too
[06:30] <thoreauputic> Pelo: close - xserver-xorg
[06:30] <ubotu> GauntletMobile, more info here too: 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
[06:30] <genii> SeanM-IA: Well, from your earlier description of path mismatches, I think also that your source code is set up to install on a more unix-like system where the paths all are more like /usr/bin /usr/sbin  or /usr/local/bin   instead of more ubuntu-like paths such as /bin  /sbin    and so on
[06:30] <TooR4u> atoponce, okey 1m
[06:30] <Pelo> thank you thoreauputic
[06:31] <thoreauputic> :)
[06:31] <GauntletMobile> Ok, I think i've got the /network/ booting part down, then
[06:31] <Paladine> pelo thats gives an error says I have to provide an action option
[06:31] <TooR4u> atoponce, which country ...?
[06:31] <atoponce> TooR4u: usa
[06:31] <bill> is the apache2 config pretty much the same as the apache13 config?
[06:31] <thoreauputic> Paladine:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:31] <atoponce> TooR4u: what does that matter?
[06:31] <harpette> TooR4u: why want access to (specialised) microsoft servers from a ubuntu linux machine?
[06:31] <TooR4u> 1m
[06:31] <SeanM-IA> genii:  think that did it.
[06:31] <thoreauputic> Paladine: he got it slighly wrong :)
[06:31] <rhYVNC> Alright, just switched one of my work accounts to run as webmail, so that's one less thing I'll need to VNC to the WinXP box for.... :D
[06:32] <Pelo> thoreauputic,  thanks for rubbing it in :-)
[06:32] <thiagoo___> i need help please ! while start the system, the error in mount the root files, what i do ? ( sorry my english )
[06:32] <thoreauputic> Pelo: heheh :p
[06:32] <Paladine> thor, gives the same error
[06:32] <Paladine> ahhh I missed the hyphen
[06:32] <Pelo> damn
[06:32] <thoreauputic> Paladine: did you do the whole thing ? Should work
[06:32] <thoreauputic> Paladine: right :)
[06:32] <Pelo> thiagoo___,  what is your native language ?
[06:33] <SeanM-IA> genii:  thank you very much for your assistance, and persistence.
[06:33] <harpette> thiagoo___: type the error msg exactly, please?
[06:33] <thiagoo___> pelo portuguese
[06:33] <genii> SeanM-IA: I'm just curious what you are trying to compile. If it is some application there may already be a package
[06:33] <Pelo> !pr | thiagoo___
[06:33] <genii> SeanM-IA: Glad to assist
[06:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pr - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:33] <Pelo> !pt | thiagoo___
[06:33] <ubotu> thiagoo___: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[06:33] <TooR4u> harpette, i think thats not matter .....;I am not willing to join in that program.I am trying to identify which distribution is offering that program
[06:33] <genii> !pt |thiagoo___
[06:33] <SeanM-IA> genii:  I am taking some infosec classes, currently trying to complile arpwatch and ettercap
[06:33] <thiagoo___> Pelo, thanks, but nothing ask me there =/
[06:33] <genii> Pelo :)
[06:34] <atoponce> TooR4u: all MS is doing is giving students discounts on software. that's it
[06:34] <TooR4u> ohh
[06:34] <thoreauputic> Pelo: hey, I can't type and I got slightly slighly wrong too ;)
[06:34] <atoponce> TooR4u: most OSS software, especially ubuntu, is free
[06:34] <floating> why can't i watch videos .rm and like this one on this site http://thatvideosite.com/video/4085 I have installed all codecs
[06:34] <atoponce> TooR4u: so what needs to be added to compare with it? i don't get it
[06:34] <genii> SeanM-IA: Ah, OK :) So it more an education journey than just needing some application properly installed
[06:34] <harpette> floating: what's it do? and what is "it"?
[06:35] <Pelo> thiagoo___,   when do you get the error,  when in grub or later ?
[06:35] <thiagoo___> Pelo, later
[06:35] <floating> it says "no video" on black screen. I guess it's wmv or something :(
[06:35] <SeanM-IA> genii:  Well, I do want them installed correctly too.  :-)  I am trying hard to learn about Ubuntu, and I see that it tens to run tools like this better than XP does.
[06:35] <TooR4u> atoponce, I want to do some thing for the opensource & i am trying to sharp my skills .....
[06:35] <thiagoo___> in mounting file system , so so
[06:35] <floating> there are just too many pages that has videos that doesnt work :i
[06:35] <Pelo> thiagoo___,  do you get as far as the desktop ?
[06:35] <TooR4u> atoponce, thats why i am trying to locate that program in opensource
[06:35] <atoponce> TooR4u: the best thing to do for open source, is just contribute. with ubuntu, there are lots of teams that you can join
[06:35] <harpette> floating: which software are you trying to view the videos with?
[06:36] <SeanM-IA> genii:  The process is running better now.  I am getting errors now on packages that each are looking for; dependency packages.  I can handle that.
[06:36] <jmg> floating: its a .wmv
[06:36] <atoponce> TooR4u: you could join a loco team in your area. that would probably be the first step
[06:36] <floating> firefox
[06:36] <jmg> floating: have you installed w32codecs?
[06:36] <TooR4u> atoponce, i have already joined
[06:36] <genii> SeanM-IA: There is at least an arpwatch package
[06:36] <TooR4u> in my loco team
[06:36] <TooR4u> but we did nothing
[06:36] <genii> !arpwatch
[06:36] <floating> jmg, I have
[06:36] <ubotu> arpwatch: Ethernet/FDDI station activity monitor. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1a13-2 (edgy), package size 121 kB, installed size 456 kB
[06:36] <Pelo> floating,   install  mplayer-mozilla and remove totem-mozilla
[06:37] <atoponce> TooR4u: good! then start contributing back to ubuntu. joining the marketing team would probably be the best fit for what you're looking to do
[06:37] <TooR4u> atoponce, actually we are doing language translations now
[06:37] <carthik> what exactly is alsa-utils, and why would I need it?
[06:37] <carthik> It is a startup service that is not enabled, (alsa-utils that is) - should I enable it?
[06:37] <floating> I have actually xubuntu. I have vlc player with really customed settings, wonder if I can avoid a new player
[06:37] <genii> When in doubt ubotu-bot is useful :)
[06:37] <carthik> (sorry if that is a repeat - having network issues)
[06:37] <jmg> floating: i have xubuntu too
[06:37] <atoponce> TooR4u: so, you are doing something then
[06:37] <thiagoo___> Pelo, as far ? i remeber that i update the system, and no more start the system, ...
[06:37] <Pelo> thiagoo___,  search for  the exact error message you get in  www.ubuntuforums.org
[06:37] <atoponce> TooR4u: where are you located?
[06:37] <TooR4u> atoponce, #ubuntu-ap
[06:37] <jmg> floating: i am going to try your link on my laptop
[06:38] <atoponce> TooR4u: what's that?
[06:38] <thiagoo___> Pelo ok, thanks
[06:38] <genii> SeanM-IA: There is also an ettercap package
[06:38] <TooR4u> atoponce, it is a channel& we got recognised
[06:38] <TooR4u> atoponce, and we form a community
[06:38] <atoponce> TooR4u: i know it's a channel. what country is 'ap'?
[06:38] <MonkeyFit> is there a specific channel for media on ubuntu?
[06:38] <TooR4u> atoponce, it is a state
[06:39] <TooR4u> andhrapradesh
[06:39] <TooR4u> in india
[06:39] <atoponce> TooR4u: thank you
[06:39] <atoponce> TooR4u: that's all i wanted to know
[06:39] <floating> thanks jmg. I checked ubuntu forum quickly for related problems, but they got assistance like installing a new player, or the help was especially for the one who asked help, so i wasnt sure what to do
[06:39] <TooR4u> sooo ....
[06:39] <TooR4u> what i have to do now?
[06:39] <SeanM-IA> genii:  OK, showing my Ubuntu newness.  I am sure there's a way to know that those packages are out there.  I do not see them in the Synaptic Package Manager.
[06:40] <atoponce> TooR4u: just 'give back'
[06:40] <TooR4u> heehee
[06:41] <harpette> TooR4u: most open source projects tell you how you can contribute. Mozilla and all the others
[06:41] <jmg> floating: worked for me with gxineplugin
[06:41] <genii> SeanM-IA: When you install packages, it looks to a file /etc/apt/sources.list which holds the urls to look for packages. Not all are enabled by default. You can edit the file as root usinfg some text editor then issue after:   sudo apt-get update   then the package manager will know about packages in the other repositories
[06:41] <Paladine> back, it made no difference, all that seemed to do was overwrite my xorg.conf
[06:42] <genii> !repositoires | SeanM-IA
[06:42] <budluva> can someone please help me, i cant get edgy to detect my usb harddrive, its plugged in, turned on, edgy didnt detect it on boot, but it shows up in lsusb, should it not automount itselft?
[06:42] <Paladine> I still get exactly the same error
[06:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repositoires - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:42] <genii> bleh typos
[06:42] <TooR4u> harpette, okey ..
[06:42] <floating> jmg, hmm ok. How to install the plugin?
[06:42] <genii> !repositories | SeanM-IA
[06:42] <ubotu> SeanM-IA: 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
[06:42] <Pelo> Paladine,  are you getting an error msg ?
[06:42] <jmg> sudo apt-get install gxineplugin
[06:42] <floating> maybe my plugins are installed in wrong location or something, how do i check it?
[06:43] <Paladine> pelo, yes, Failed to load NVIDIA kernel module
[06:43] <Paladine> fatal error
[06:43] <Pollywog> dpkg -L <packagename> tells you where the contents of the package are located
[06:43] <jmg> floating: it launches in a seperate xine window, not ideal but at least you can watch
[06:43] <Pelo> Paladine,   my only suggestion is to reinstall the nvidia drivers
[06:43] <Paladine> Pelo, done that 4 times now
[06:43] <SeanM-IA> genii:  Thank you.  (Again.)  :-)
[06:44] <Pelo> Paladine,  did you look up your problem in the forum ?  best place to get hardware support
[06:44] <genii> SeanM-IA: :)
[06:44] <floating> so, if i install an addition player xine, the w32codecs starts to work thru the xine ?
[06:44] <Paladine> pelo, how do you suggest I do that with only console?
[06:44] <Pelo> Paladine,  good point
[06:44] <jmg> floating: yes
[06:44] <Pelo> Paladine,  hole on
[06:44] <Pelo> hold
[06:44] <Paladine> and it was working perfectly well before I did updates
[06:44] <Paladine> xorg had 113 days uptime
[06:45] <floating> worth a shot then. is it more than apt-get install xine ?
[06:45] <Paladine> with glx working and dual monitor/dual graphic card setup with xinerama
[06:45] <jmg> floating: apt-get install gxineplugin and let apt-get resolv dependencies
[06:45] <Pelo> Paladine,  which version of ubuntu are you running ?
[06:46] <Paladine> edgy server
[06:48] <Pelo> Paladine, can you browse the internet ?
[06:48] <Pelo> at all ?
[06:48] <RaidenCX> #quit goodbye
[06:48] <Paladine> no
[06:48] <Pelo> Paladine,  pm ?
[06:48] <jmg> RaidenCX: /quit works better
[06:48] <Paladine> sure
[06:48] <RaidenCX> lol yeah
[06:49] <lcandell> vote sanjaya!
[06:49] <carthik> ??
[06:50] <atoponce> lcandell: ?
[06:50] <Acu> I have a Digital Voice recorder /MP3 Player IRock!150VM and I do not know how to see it in linux ?
[06:50] <Pollywog> is someone running for office?
[06:50] <n-iCe> hi why xubuntu is slower than windows !?!?!
[06:50] <Pollywog> is it slower than Windows?
[06:50] <floating> jmg, still (no video) tried restarting firefox
[06:51] <Pelo> g'night folks
[06:51] <budluva> anyone seen a howto for mounting usb hard drives? wiki has nothing i can find
[06:51] <Pelo> budluva,  it should automount to /media  and appear on your desktop
[06:52] <budluva> pelo, thats what i thought, but i plug it in, and nothing shows up, even plugged it in while powered down and it didnt detect through boot
[06:53] <kikdadog> after trying to update to the k-7 kernel, im still booting from the generic, when i go into the menu and select the k-7 kernel it shoots a kernel panic, anybody have ideas???
[06:53] <thoreauputic> budluva: try either   tail -f /var/log/syslog  before and during plugin. and/or   dmesg | tail  afterwards
[06:54] <thoreauputic> budluva: it should show up as a /dev/sd?  device
[06:54] <budluva> can i paste a few lines here?
[06:54] <thoreauputic> budluva: where ? could be a, b. c etc
[06:54] <n-iCe> how can i make my desktop more lighter?
[06:54] <budluva> there's an error
[06:54] <thoreauputic> budluva: it is not usual :)
[06:54] <genii> kikadog What is the exact model of your processor?
[06:55] <thoreauputic> budluva: pastebin it
[06:55] <thoreauputic> !pastebin | budluva
[06:55] <ubotu> budluva: 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:55] <floating> jmg. opening up a wmv stream file with gxine works at start, but gets jammed, while vlc didnt even know what to do, so I guess i'm closer, thx
[06:55] <kikdadog> amd
[06:55] <floating> firefox just doesnt do it automatically
[06:56] <thoreauputic> floating: I'v had the best results with mplayer and mozilla-mplayer plugin
[06:56] <thoreauputic> or is it mplayer-mozilla ?
[06:56] <thoreauputic> !mozilla-mplayer
[06:56] <ubotu> mozilla-mplayer: MPlayer-Plugin for Mozilla. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.31-1 (edgy), package size 467 kB, installed size 1616 kB
[06:57] <thoreauputic> ah
[06:57] <genii> kikadog The k7 kernel works on athlon chips for instance but will not work on amd64 chips for instance. Just because amd makes it doesn't mean the k7 kernel will work on it. You may need the amd64 kernel for instance.
[06:57] <n-iCe> how can i install swiftfox
[06:57] <n-iCe> with commands
[06:57] <budluva> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12720/
[06:57] <kikdadog> no its an older chip
[06:58] <thoreauputic> n-iCe: not in Ubuntu packages afaik
[06:58] <budluva> there its up on pastebin
[06:58] <thoreauputic> ok
[06:58] <n-iCe> xubuntu
[06:58] <budluva> can someone please have a look?
[06:58] <Paladine> damn it
[06:58] <budluva> so is my kernel not configured correctly for this usb hdd to work or what?
[06:58] <harpette> thoreauputic: i prefer mozplugger, which handles all the others
[06:59] <genii> kikadog If it's an older ship then it may be a k6 or earlier even. It is useful to know exact models of cpu before trying to install a cpu-specific kernel
[06:59] <thoreauputic> harpette: ah interesting - this is a package too ?
[06:59] <thoreauputic> budluva: which command is that from? was there any reference to /dev at all  ?
[06:59] <kikdadog> its a 1.4 gig amd thunderbird I think.....
[07:00] <harpette> thoreauputic: on Ubuntu/debian, dunno. But you can get it from the mozilla web site, and it's easy to install
[07:00] <thoreauputic> budluva: I don't know what causes that error, sorry
[07:00] <Geoffrey2> I have a TV tuner card from ATI...what kind of support can I find for it under Ubuntu?
[07:00] <thoreauputic> harpette: is it an extension ?
[07:00] <genii> Thats a Duron
[07:00] <budluva>  tail -f /var/log/syslog
[07:00] <budluva> .
[07:00] <harpette> thoreauputic: no. well perhaps now it is
[07:01] <kikdadog> im gonna reboot and check some specs brb
[07:01] <thoreauputic> budluva: so was ther any other output, like a reference to /dev/sdb1 or something similar ?
[07:01] <harpette> thoreauputic: yes there's a pkg in World Wide Web (Universe)
[07:01] <thoreauputic> harpette: ah cool - thanks for the info
[07:01] <pe6950> hey, I had a working xorg config, and then when I rebooted into windows and rebooted back, it now fails
[07:01] <Paladine> thor this still isn't working mate
[07:01] <budmang> s
[07:02] <budmang> s
[07:02] <genii> kikadog For optimising you'd be better off using the i686 kernel
[07:02] <kondor101> is there a way to refresh iptables ?
[07:02] <sdrev> how can i find out what version of things i have installed? (in particular i'm looking for what kernel version i have and what version of fglrx i have)
[07:02] <Paladine> pe6950: sounds like the same problem I am having cept I don't have windows
[07:02] <thoreauputic> Paladine: you mean the dpkg-reconfigure ?
[07:02] <pe6950> and I tried to restore a working config with nvidia-xconfig, but that didn't work
[07:02] <Paladine> yeah it didn't work it just ruined my xorg.conf
[07:02] <Paladine> thankfully I had a backup
[07:02] <pe6950> yeah, I guess, I can't seem to get X to start now
[07:02] <Ryan__> I just installed mysql and i typed in mysql -u root and got this: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[07:02] <pe6950> all the logs say "No Screens found"
[07:02] <thoreauputic> Paladine: are you using binary drivers? (a ti or nvidia etc)
[07:03] <Paladine> nvidia
[07:03] <pe6950> me as well
[07:03] <Paladine> or rather the ubuntu package nvidia-glx
[07:03] <thoreauputic> Paladine: you used the packaged driver ?
[07:03] <thoreauputic> ah
[07:03] <pe6950> I am using the nvidia drivers (nvidia.com)
[07:03] <thoreauputic> Paladine: there's a problem with some nvidia cards on feisty currently - are you running feisty?
[07:03] <Paladine> I can't use the run script from nvidia's website because it fails
[07:04] <pe6950> Paladine: where does it fail>
[07:04] <thoreauputic> Paladine: if you need to revert to the packaged driver, you have to uninstall the nVidia web site driver *completely* first
[07:05] <pe6950> what do I do?
[07:05] <pe6950> my xconfig was fine, and I rebooted, and now it no longer has a screen
[07:05] <pe6950> or it doesn't think my screen section is valid
[07:05] <kikdadog> genii, its an amd athalon xp 1700
[07:05] <thoreauputic> pe6950: new kernel?
[07:05] <pe6950> thoreauputic: maybe, do I need to reinstall the driver?
[07:06] <genii> pe6950    sudo dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:06] <pe6950> I did run system update
[07:06] <pe6950> k
[07:06] <pe6950> wait, I like my xorg file
[07:06] <Ryan__>  I just installed mysql and i typed in mysql -u root and got this: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[07:06] <pe6950> I don't want to totaly get rid of it
[07:06] <thoreauputic> pe6950: yes, unless you are using the packaged ubuntu drivers ( nvidia-glx)
[07:06] <port101> start sql
[07:06] <pe6950> k
[07:07] <pe6950> I will re-install drivers
[07:07] <genii> kikadog I found some ppl saying that it runs the k7 kernel but only the smp k7 kernel. so your mileage may vary with that flavour
[07:07] <port101> sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[07:07] <thoreauputic> pe6950: make a backup of the last known good xorg.conf
[07:07] <pe6950> does anyone reccomend the beta drivers over the standard ones?
[07:07] <pe6950> thoreauputic: I sure will
[07:07] <Ryan__> thanks
[07:07] <thoreauputic> pe6950: ;-)
[07:07] <kikdadog> ok I'll give that one a try
[07:07] <sdrev> how can i find out what version of things i have installed? (in particular i'm looking for what kernel version i have and what version of fglrx i have)
[07:08] <kikdadog> thanks
[07:08] <pe6950> sdrev: ususaly the command has a -v swithc
[07:08] <pe6950> or a --version switch
[07:08] <genii> kikadog If it doesn't go, I'd revert to a 686 kernel
[07:08] <thoreauputic> sdrev:  kernel version - type  uname -a  for a full listing
[07:08] <pe6950> but for kernel version, just do uname -a
[07:08] <genii> uname -r
[07:08] <thoreauputic> sdrev: uname -r for just the version number
[07:08] <kondor101> i still have not manage to fix this ports problem
[07:09] <kondor101> im going to reinstall everything and start again.  waste of space thing grrrr
[07:09] <sdrev> thanks everyone
[07:09] <kondor101> 6am, time to give up and go home
[07:10] <ecker> just curious, is there a way to hide the borders on the gnome panel with out use some desktop widget?
[07:11] <MTecknology> how can I set up separate viewports for Ubuntu, so they can each have different backgrounds?
[07:11] <harpette> ecker: try another theme?
[07:13] <ecker> harpette tried many, but when i make it transparent I still see then color riffled borders at each end
[07:13] <tonyyarusso> MTecknology: a) It's not easy/simple, b) I really need to go to bed very very soon, c) I believe it can be done, and have instructions - ping me another time if you can't find out tonight
[07:13] <b0xy|MacPro> hm.. when I try to install I get weird graphics issues with an eVGA 6600LE PCI-E. when I take it out and use onboard the graphics are fine
[07:13] <b0xy|MacPro> can't remember if this vid card was the fubar'd one or not though
[07:13] <Geoffrey2> will feisty likely work any better with laptop wireless cards than Edgey does?
[07:13] <b0xy|MacPro> doesn't work in VGA safe mode install either though
[07:14] <b0xy|MacPro> sound like the vid card is messed or is that a common install issue?
[07:14] <MTecknology> tonyyarusso: is there any other advantages other than just separate backgrounds?
[07:14] <tonyyarusso> MTecknology: not really
[07:15] <MTecknology> tonyyarusso: aight, i might just blow it off - thanks though
[07:15] <jmg> hmm
[07:15] <GauntletWizard> I'm booting from a Network interface, and I'm fairly certain it's working, as one computer will boot properly from such. However my second computer consistantly hangs while probing PCI devices. Any advice?
[07:15] <jmg> anyone here in .cn?
[07:15] <billy> greetings fellow earth creatures.
[07:16] <sdrev> how can i figure out what version ATI fglrx drivers i have?
[07:16] <jmg> hello billy
[07:17] <Paladine> k got x loaded with the nv drivers, installing new kernel headers and restricted modules now
[07:17] <Paladine> for some reason it seems the autoupdate tool changed my kernel from generic to server
[07:18] <Paladine> brb
[07:25] <__hase> Is there a way I can make a different desktop background on each face of the cube?
[07:25] <port101> yup
[07:26] <thoreauputic> __hase: try asking in #ubuntu-effects
[07:26] <__hase> thanks
[07:28] <um_whoa> was there a netsplit?
[07:29] <Geoffrey2> ok, I'm noticing in Firefox that symbols like ' are not displaying properly...the ' is a diamond with a ? inside it
[07:29] <um_whoa> oh no
[07:29] <Paladine> k that fixed it, but why on earth did autoupdate install the wrong kernel and restricted modules?
[07:30] <um_whoa> test
[07:30] <um_whoa>  was there a net split or something?
[07:30] <genii> GauntletWizard: There is akernel switch you could pass not to probe pci but offhand I forget exact syntax. Likely something like pci-noprobe or similar
[07:30] <genii> pci=noprobe rather (or similar)
[07:31] <GauntletWizard> genii: in the bootloader, it suggests hw-detect/start_pcmcia=false, but that's not seemed to work
[07:31] <b0xy|MacPro> ok. trying to install Nvidia linux driver. says I'm still running X. how can I stop X so that I can run the nvidia installer?
[07:32] <bulmer> o to single user mode
[07:32] <genii> GauntletWizard: Since acpi is usually the most problemmatic thing try the noacpi switch
[07:32] <b0xy|MacPro> bulmer: how?
[07:32] <bulmer> telinit 1
[07:32] <b0xy|MacPro> as in Ctrl+Alt+F1?
[07:32] <chipbuddy> so the main reason why i like yakuake is because i get a terminal very fast. how do i make it so gnome-terminal or xterm launches very quickly (or how do i make it so it never closes)?
[07:32] <GauntletWizard> tried that one too
[07:32] <bulmer> sudo telinit 1
[07:33] <kalorin> tell init what? :)
[07:33] <kalorin> nighty
[07:33] <genii> GauntletWizard: Somewhere there is a comprehensive list of kernel options. Let me see if I can find it
[07:33] <GauntletWizard> Thanks :)
[07:34] <GauntletWizard> I think it's a bad bit of hardware: The person I got it from said that windows hangs on hardware probe.
[07:34] <GauntletWizard> I'm just not sure what all I can try disabling to diagnose it
[07:35] <Peppery> Whats the difference between Ubuntu standard and Ubuntu "minimal"? I am switching my server from Fedora to Ubuntu, and was wondering what the difference was
[07:36] <link> Hello, can someone help me in getting Remote Desktop to function properly?
[07:36] <b0xy|MacPro> meh. and once again, I remember why I stayed away from linux
[07:36] <b0xy|MacPro> so much work and it's always GUI related for me
[07:36] <xircx> i have a prob
[07:36] <tonyyarusso> b0xy|MacPro: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop will kill X.
[07:36] <xircx> it might be a fast fix
[07:37] <xircx> im try'in to install a skin for amsn and when i try to extract it to the fold it says i dont have permission?
[07:38] <genii> GauntletWizard: Bleh, the list is being elusive :) I have it bookmarked but on a machine I am not at right now
[07:38] <xircx> can eny one help me out?
[07:38] <digen> xircx: what is the permissions/ownership of the folder in question ?
[07:38] <chipbuddy> i like yakuake because it takes me to a terminal very quickly. how do i make gnome-terminal launch that fast... or make it so there is always a terminal open?
[07:38] <GauntletWizard> Genii: Thanks for looking
[07:38] <xircx> hold on let me read it fast
[07:39] <xircx> You don't have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder "/usr/share/amsn/skins"
[07:40] <genii> GauntletWizard: Heh, found it finally :) There are a *lot* so maybe start with thye ones starting pci=<something>    to get some ideas http://stanton-finley.net/kernel-parameters.txt
[07:40] <um_who1> what was that telint 1 cmd?
[07:40] <xircx> i can extract it to the desk top but for some resion i cant move it to that folder
[07:41] <digen> xircx: that's because you're logged in as a normal user. A normal user doesn't have permissions to write inside /usr/
[07:41] <xircx> lmao so have to log back out in to the admin
[07:41] <xircx> will i still have the package on the other acount?
[07:41] <digen> um_who1: telinit 1 ? To change the runlevel ?
[07:41] <GauntletWizard> Genii: Thanks
[07:42] <harpette> xircx: use sudo
[07:42] <digen> xircx: use sudo
[07:42] <xircx> dude im a noob lol
[07:42] <xircx> sudo?
[07:42] <um_who1> yeah, i just spelled it right and then man-ed it
[07:42] <harpette> !sudo | xirc
[07:42] <ubotu> xirc: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:42] <genii> GauntletWizard: Just hope it helps. The options for things like buggy bios and so on may work as well
[07:43] <xircx> k i will check that out
[07:44] <um_who1> it would be cooler if !whatever | whomever was parsed to the screen and did it directly
[07:44] <brophat> does it makes sense that if a sound card is not detected that when starting programs that require sound you will get error msgs such as can't start totem or can't find gstreamer ?? or does it sound like something more than just not finding a sound card?
[07:44] <b0xy|MacPro> Nvidia installer says that it couldn't find a pre-compiled etc... needed to compile one, then I didn't have libc development etc..
[07:44] <b0xy|MacPro> so how do I install that
[07:44] <b0xy|MacPro> or am I using the wrong NVidia installer? I pulled it off the nvidia site
[07:45] <b0xy|MacPro> is there one specifically made for ubuntu I should be using instead?
[07:45] <solidus-river> how is ubuntu's 32bit libraries for amd64 architecture?
[07:45] <solidus-river> *how are
[07:45] <solidus-river> just tried out debian and one of the apps i wanted ran :'
[07:46] <omeil> !beryl
[07:46] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:46] <Geoffrey2> ok, 6.10 installed....it needs to install 162 updates.....about 95% are listed under NOT AUTHENTICATED......
[07:46] <kraypius> is there any way to specify which desktop area a program starts in?
[07:47] <solidus-river> anyone here on an amd64?
[07:47] <noobie0057> I'm on amd64
[07:47] <Supaplex> I'm on a soft chair.
[07:47] <Supaplex> that must be painful.
[07:48] <noobie0057> I just installed mythtv, and I'm told to log in as mythtv, but what is the password for this user? mythtv didn't work
[07:48] <Supaplex> does sudo work?
[07:49] <genii> noobie0057:  As your normal user:  sudo passwd mythtv        should change it to whatever you like
[07:49] <noobie0057> ah,, I'll try it
[07:50] <noobie0057> thanks
[07:50] <harpette> sounds wrong to have to log in as mythtv
[07:51] <noobie0057> I have never gotten mythtv to work, I've tried a dozen times so far
[07:51] <genii> Conceivably it could be something like mysql or whatever that is asking for a password and not some session as mythtv logon
[07:51] <harpette> noobie0057: do they have an irc channel?
[07:51] <AdamKili> is it just me or is #freenode-social not working?
[07:51] <sdrev> how can i figure out what version ATI fglrx drivers i have?
[07:52] <noobie0057> I believe so, but it is not very active
[07:52] <genii> sdrev: The fglrx version number should be explicit in the name of the file you downloaded from ATI
[07:52] <harpette> AdamKili: i just went in, but you have to wait until you get voice
[07:52] <noobie0057> if there was a simple command line program that would record I'd dump mythtv for good
[07:53] <barata> for you who's been in the cave in the past months ... introducing
[07:53] <barata> Ubuntu
[07:53] <barata> MUSLIM edition!!
[07:53] <newlaptop> harpette: are you having a problem with mythtv?
[07:53] <barata> :))))
[07:53] <barata> http://www.ubuntume.com/
[07:53] <harpette> newlaptop: no, not me. noobie0057
[07:53] <mike> Damn ubuntu is slow!!?
[07:53] <barata> the most ridiculous version of Ubuntu
[07:53] <avalon> Is there a way I can get a list of hard drives in my system that ubuntu sees?
[07:54] <sdrev> genii: i'm using feisty and i used the restricted drivers manager and just clicked enable...it didn't have any version number next to it
[07:54] <noobie0057> newlaptop, I am
[07:54] <barata> just df avalon
[07:54] <AdamKili> harpette: oh ya it's just that usually you get voice immediately after joining a channel
[07:54] <genii> ROFL  Look out Ubuntu Christian Edition!!
[07:54] <kraypius> avalon, sudo cat /etc/fstab
[07:54] <barata> df will show you all the mounted fs
[07:54] <noobie0057> newlaptop: I'm really starting to hate it
[07:54] <solidus-river> genii: it censers out ungodly pages for you ^ ^
[07:54] <paradoxx> Does anyone know of a command line compiler for java?
[07:54] <barata> javac
[07:54] <newlaptop> noobie0057: what's it doing / not doing?
[07:54] <genii> solidus-river: Sort of like a pre-emptive chinese Google site
[07:54] <avalon> Are those just for mounteds? Because every since I've upgraded to Feisty, one of my larger drives seems to be missing
[07:55] <noobie0057> newlaptop: not installing, mythtv-setup tells me it cannot connect to the database
[07:55] <AdamKili> harpette: thanks
[07:55] <newlaptop> ok
[07:55] <newlaptop> noobie0057: frontend and backend on different machines?
[07:55] <newlaptop> noobie0057: or all on one box?
[07:55] <kraypius> if it isnt listed there then you need the correct driver
[07:56] <noobie0057> newlaptop: one machine
[07:56] <kraypius> or u might just need to remount
[07:56] <noobie0057> newlaptop: it's an amd64 with 3 tuner cards
[07:56] <newlaptop> noobie0057: hmm... mysqld is running, correct?
[07:56] <genii> sdrev Perhaps do:   ls /var/cache/apt/archives|grep fglrx
[07:56] <avalon> It was working fine under edgy and it's xfs, so I'm assuming it should be fine?
[07:56] <solidus-river> anyone here on amd64?
[07:56] <solidus-river> or x86_64 in general?
[07:57] <sdrev> genii: that worked, thanks
[07:57] <genii> sdrev np
[07:57] <avalon> Is there a grep command I can use to find XFS disks?
[07:58] <noobie0057> newlaptop: I don't know, it should be, when I type mysqld I get warnings an a message saying it will shut down,, looks like this is the problem
[07:58] <newlaptop> what is in the logs for mysqld?  does the process die, or just give warnings?
[07:58] <sdrev> genii: any suggestions on figuring out what version of x i'm running?
[07:58] <genii> avalon sudo fdisk -l |grep xfs
[07:59] <noobie0057> newlaptop: when I try to log into mysql using root I get Access denied,, I just installed it, I'm sure the password is correct
[07:59] <noobie0057> newlaptop: I am not familiar with the logs

[08:00] <pibarnas> Hi folks, I have mplayer and vlc and their plugins for firefox, but I can't listen audio from some sites, like 4shared for example. It says: "no video". Any ideas?
[08:00] <Smilez> Alright... so I was in here earlier looking for the right ubuntu flavor to download....... any suggestions?
[08:00] <ivx> hey i am trying to make a copy of a disc that was intended for windows, when i insert it how do i get it to show up on the desktop so i can make an .iso
[08:00] <pibarnas> Smilez 6.10
[08:00] <Smilez> pibarnas: that usually happens when its loading the media
[08:00] <genii> sdrev I think maybe X -v
[08:00] <Smilez> thats vlc plugin i believe
[08:01] <avalon> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12725/ <-- Does somebody mind telling me which one of those is my missing 300 GB Drive?
[08:01] <Smilez> pibarnas: but which one, vanilla, edgy eft?
[08:01] <sdrev> pibarnas: have you tried waiting? after it buffers, the media should start playing
[08:01] <pibarnas> Smilez edgy.
[08:01] <Smilez> 6.10's latest right
[08:01] <pibarnas> sdrev I'll try right now, thanks folks.
[08:01] <noobie0057> newlaptop: thanks, I can't get it changed, either, I'm going to reinstall  it
[08:02] <pibarnas> Smilez but I suppose you know the next version will be released in 20th april, in less than one month...
[08:02] <newlaptop> noobie0057: one sec
[08:02] <newlaptop> was googling
[08:02] <Zehava> what's the command to copy a folder from one dir to another please?
[08:02] <Smilez> pibarnas: How difficult is upgrading to the latest versions?
[08:02] <sdrev> genii: that didn't work :-\
[08:02] <mavericken> how swtch conlse mode to gui mode in ubuntu server
[08:02] <genii> Zehava: You want the old contents to stay there or to just move everything to the new place?
[08:02] <ivx> so will ubuntu be able to read ntfs partitions or do i have to install something?
[08:02] <brophat> my sound card is not being detected, but when I clicked on a video in the examples folder it would not even play the video. does that make sense?
[08:03] <Zehava> genii move all of 1 dir to new place
[08:03] <harpette> Zehava: man cp
[08:03] <genii> sdrev You could look at the X logs in /var/log   it shows usually in there the X server version when it started up
[08:03] <Smilez> Holy crap I'm getting 730KBps from Georgia Tech, NICE!
[08:03] <pibarnas> Smilez You mean installing the current stable and then upgrade when the next will be released?
[08:03] <Zehava> harpette thanks
[08:03] <mavericken> how swtch conlse mode to gui mode in ubuntu server help me...... plzzzzzzzz
[08:03] <Smilez> correct pibarnas
[08:03] <Smilez> maverick CTRL  + ALT F#
[08:03] <Smilez> I believe
[08:04] <Ryan__> i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. What did I do wrong?
[08:04] <genii> Zehava:  then use the mv command   eg:   mv /this old stuff/here   /to /here
[08:04] <Smilez> as in all linux distro's
[08:04] <newlaptop> noobie0057: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html
[08:04] <genii> Zehava:  No spaces in the pathnames
[08:04] <ivx> ryan__ what php5 did you install, the plug in, and did you try to restart apache?
[08:04] <pibarnas> Smilez Smilez, I've never had good experiences in upgrades in linux, in many distros. How can I solve it?
[08:05] <avalon> I'm getting a horrible feeling that Feisty's upgrade just formatted my 300 gig...
[08:05] <Smilez> pibarnas: :( thats not good...
[08:05] <pibarnas> Smilez I made a system prepared for new installation, with some extra partitions...
[08:05] <Zehava> genii thanks a bundle
[08:05] <Smilez> and no smooth sailing huh
[08:05] <mavericken> how swtch conlse mode to gui mode in ubuntu server help me...... plzzzzzzzz
[08:05] <genii> Zehava You're welcome
[08:05] <pibarnas> Smilez like that: /; /home; /data
[08:06] <genii> mavericken: intelikey knows :) If you can find hime somewhere
[08:06] <Smilez> right.... and made /home your home and /data like a work directory?
[08:06] <xircx> damn it
[08:06] <mavericken> how swtch conlse mode to gui mode in ubuntu server help me...... plzzzzzzzz
[08:06] <avalon> ctrl alt f7 or 11 I believe mavericken
[08:07] <avalon> or startx should also work
[08:07] <ivx> mavericken, you have to install gnome i think
[08:07] <genii> mavericken:     sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:07] <Smilez> can't believe my isp is letting me get such download rates
[08:07] <genii> mavericken:    Then reboot
[08:07] <pibarnas> Smilez then, when the new ubuntu arrives, I'll install it on / and backup things in /data, and my confs stays at /home! :)
[08:07] <pibarnas> Smilez but you must be used to partitioning to make this...
[08:07] <pibarnas> Smilez I think you can do the same, installing 6.10 (as I've done)!
[08:07] <Ryan__>  i installed the package php5 and i restarted apache
[08:07] <Ryan__>  do i also need something else?
[08:07] <genii> avalon: server edition comes with no gui :)
[08:07] <noobie0057> newlaptop: thanks, I'm in.  There in not a mythtv user in mysql. Do you think I should create one?
[08:07] <ivx> ryan__ so that still isn't working
[08:08] <r_r_s> Yes.
[08:08] <Ryan__> still not working
[08:08] <Smilez> pibarnas: I've been using Linux since 1997 so I don't mind partitioning, but I have been spoiled lately with all these pretty GUI installers :D
[08:08] <Ryan__>   do i also need something else
[08:08] <r_r_s> New Ubuntu install on nice new laptop
[08:08] <ivx> ryan__ which php5 did you install?
[08:08] <ivx> there is a couple things that have php5
[08:08] <Smilez> I used to run Slackware 10 for a couple years... and when i used mandriva with package installers and things like rpm's I was shocked
[08:08] <Smilez> It was too easy in my opinion. And Linux was for true geeks! :D
[08:09] <Ryan__> in synaptic i installed the package called php5
[08:09] <avalon> You hard drive eating monster ,show me my drive!
[08:09] <pibarnas> Smilez Well, I think you won't have trouble to prepare your system when you install edgy for the next version, then! :)
[08:09] <ivx> ryan__ i think you need to install something called apache php5 plugin
[08:09] <ivx> i forget that exact name
[08:10] <Ryan__> its not there
[08:10] <Ryan__> i dont see it
[08:10] <Smilez> pibarnas: so to recap... burn the 6.10 iso, partition with some extra directories, and install away... then when new version comes in, download, burn, upgrade
[08:10] <b0xy|MacPro> sweet. got the nvidia drivers working finally
[08:10] <ivx> ryan__ hold on
[08:10] <b0xy|MacPro> now I just wonder if my vid card is fucked or if I'm  having software related issues
[08:10] <avalon> I'm going to try restarting and seeing if it pops up. This is seriously freaking me out because that drive contained some vital information and it's not under the drive letter it used to be on here.
[08:10] <Smilez> pibarnas: do we know if the next version will include linspire's CNR (click n run) ?
[08:11] <pibarnas> Smilez I think that "no video" thing isn't a loading issue... I have no streaming here... How can I change the plugin for listening mp3 for example, in firefox?
[08:11] <Lowe> Smilez:  why don't you start with 7.04?
[08:11] <Smilez> Lowe: and wait until 4/20?! :D I might...
[08:11] <pibarnas> Smilez yep, it will be included.
[08:11] <Smilez> I have plenty of hard drives
[08:11] <ivx> ryan__ get libapache-mod-php5
[08:11] <Smilez> pibarnas:  gimme one sec ill checkfor you
[08:11] <newlaptop> noobie0057: good that it worked for you.  I would create a seperate id for mythtv.  reserve the root account for when something is hosed
[08:11] <Ryan__> thanks
[08:11] <Lowe> Smilez: or run the beta
[08:12] <Lowe> rock-stable here... :)
[08:12] <genii> !labguage | b0xy|MacPro
[08:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about labguage - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:12] <genii> bah
[08:12] <ivx> ryan__ then restart apache
[08:12] <Ryan__> i already have it
[08:12] <visionviper> Hello, I am looking for some mythtv/mysql help. I am getting the "can't connect to loacal MySQL server through socket" error. I have been looking for the past 2 hours trying to find a solution. I am hoping maybe someone here might be able to help. (sorry for long msg :P)
[08:12] <genii> !language | b0xy|MacPro
[08:12] <ubotu> b0xy|MacPro: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:12] <Smilez> Lowe: any news on whats going to be added from beta -> 7.04?
[08:12] <newlaptop> visionviper: new install of mythtv?  is the backend on the same box as the frontend?
[08:13] <pibarnas> Smilez I wouln't say you upgrade, but just do a Feisty install, taking care of course not erasing some partitions, only /, ok?
[08:13] <visionviper> I am runnung Ubuntu 6.10, MySQL 5 and the latest mythtv version
[08:13] <Smilez> pibarnas: right now im not in ubuntu at all
[08:13] <Lowe> Smilez: don't know
[08:13] <Smilez> im in open suse... but the 6.10 iso is almost done downloading
[08:13] <bulmer> visionviper do you know how to use mysql client?
[08:14] <Smilez> pibarnas: I'm still looking for your solution
[08:14] <visionviper> not really, I am a newbie when it comes to linux.
[08:14] <pibarnas> Smilez I think it's more secure than wait a new ubuntu upgrader (a thing no distro could do very well, at my point of view).
[08:15] <Smilez> pibarnas: you think its more secure if I wait for 7.04?
[08:15] <newlaptop> be right back... we shall see if repartitioning had any ill effects on the recovery partition for this new ibm laptop.  this will determine if i bother to keep windows around on this box at all.
[08:15] <bulmer> visionviper: its not stricly linux when it comes to mysql client..they have one for windoz too
[08:15] <bill_k> if I accidentally screwed up, lets say media wiki by deleting it's default configurations, how do I get it to re-create them? (I tried apt-get remove mediawiki && apt-get install mediawiki)
[08:15] <visionviper> bulmer: I have been looking with google for solutions to my problem, but I am yet to find something that works
[08:15] <Smilez> pibarnas: Some forums said to try http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66563&highlight=Automatix "Automatix"
[08:15] <pibarnas> Smilez If you can wait, I think you won't be disappointed afte all!
[08:16] <Smilez> pibarnas: I'm going to try and find a "whats new" or a change log for 7.04 to compare it to 6.10
[08:16] <pibarnas> Smilez I've used it. Don't like too much.
[08:16] <bulmer> visionviper: look, you can use any mysql client to test your connection to mysql server first
[08:16] <Smilez> I mean I still have linux so at least i don't have to be in windows
[08:16] <bulmer> visionviper: and if your client can connect, make sure the configs on mythtv are the same
[08:16] <pibarnas> Smilez Have you used ubuntu?
[08:17] <pibarnas> Smilez Have you already used ubuntu?
[08:17] <Smilez> not yet... its like the one distro i have yet to use
[08:17] <genii> visionviper: Usually errors like what you are reporting is due to no users with that name in mysql existing. You have to add the name mythtv for instance into mysql so it knows about it and cana llow that name acess to databases. If you "man mysqladmin" it has some good examples of commandline syntax for this. A web based mysql tool is also around. I think is called myphpadmin
[08:17] <Smilez> I started messing around with linux for servers
[08:17] <visionviper> bulmer: how do I do that?
[08:17] <k6rfm> Smilez: which linux
[08:18] <pibarnas> Smilez I use linux since 1999
[08:18] <Ryan__>  i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. I have installed libapache-mod-php5 and restarted apache. What did I do wrong?
[08:18] <pibarnas> Smilez I spent too many years using slackware.
[08:18] <Smilez> then started using them as a desktop. I've used Slackware 5-10, Mandrake (Then Mandriva), OpenSuse 10.2 (currently), and I've used openBSD freeBSD and netbsd, bsdi etc
[08:18] <pibarnas> Smilez very good system, too clear and clever.
[08:18] <Smilez> I still love Slackware. I lost my virginity to it :D
[08:18] <bulmer> visionviper: google for how to connect mysql client to mysql server
[08:18] <pibarnas> Smilez But I love gnome, and Patrick not, as far as I know.
[08:19] <visionviper> bulmer: I am in the process already ;)
[08:19] <Smilez> pibarnas: in the Address bar type "about:plugins"
[08:19] <Smilez> there you should see VLC media player
[08:19] <pibarnas> Smilez okay...
[08:19] <bulmer> visionviper: then why not read on more ?
[08:19] <Smilez> then locate your plugins directory (ie: /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/) and delete the VLC plugins
[08:19] <Smilez> make sure you're out of firefox first
[08:19] <jqg> Anyone can tell me how to install php_gd2.dll for ubuntu?
[08:20] <visionviper> bulmer: I tried connecting as root, it still won't connect
[08:20] <Ryan__>  i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. I have installed libapache-mod-php5 and restarted apache. What did I do wrong?
[08:20] <pibarnas> Smilez but how to change to another multimedia dafault plugin, like mplayer?
[08:20] <dametalone> hi people
[08:20] <Smilez> if mplayer has a firefox plugin, then download and install that
[08:20] <ivx> hey i am trying to copy a disc, but when i put it in i don't get the icon on the desktop to do the right click make copy thing, when i mount it it shows up in /cdrom/ but i don't have an option to make an iso, how can i make an iso of this disc
[08:20] <genii> jqg There is no file of that extension for linux. Only windows uses dll files
[08:20] <Smilez> otherwise firefox will ask you how to open it
[08:20] <dametalone> im new to linux and just installed unbutu and im haveing some issues
[08:20] <dametalone> anybody wanna pm me and give me a few pointers please?
[08:20] <visionviper> bulmer: I get the same error
[08:20] <pibarnas> Smilez I have both of them here!
[08:21] <lynucs> !ask
[08:21] <Smilez> ??
[08:21] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:21] <jqg> genii,ok,I think it should like php_gd2.so?
[08:21] <Ryan__>  i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. I have installed libapache-mod-php5 and restarted apache. What did I do wrong?
[08:21] <mavericken> how swtch conlse mode to gui mode in ubuntu server help me...... plzzzzzzzz
[08:21] <visionviper> bulmer: Can't connect to local MySQL server though socket 'var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[08:21] <pibarnas> Smilez Ubuntu is by far, the best linux distro I use, I'm forced to recognize.
[08:21] <Smilez> haha
[08:21] <dametalone> i have my computer set up as a dual boot system and i want to access my windows files.  How do i access them?
[08:21] <steve167> mavericken: try startx
[08:21] <Smilez> I've yet to use it... but I'm tired of chasing down dependencies in OpenSuSe to update software
[08:21] <cypher1> !ntfs | dametalone
[08:21] <ubotu> dametalone: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:22] <Smilez> and I hear fantastic things about ubuntu and its packaging system and repositories
[08:22] <k6rfm> dametalone: are they FAT or NTFS file sys?
[08:22] <dametalone> NTFS
[08:22] <JP79> hey, i installed ubuntu, moved the tower from one house to another, now the internet doesnt work.  how do i reconfigure the tower??  i tried sudo pppoeconf, but that didnt wokr
[08:22] <mavericken> this is serverversion
[08:22] <Smerity__> NTFS-3G has really worked wonders for me, really glad with it
[08:22] <genii> jqd For apache2 modules, they are usually named something like libapache2-mod-php5   or similar. so to find the right packagename, use apt-cahe like:  sudo apt-cache search libapache2|grep php
[08:22] <k6rfm> dametalone: you're mostly screwed then'
[08:22] <Smilez> I also know that Canonical is making some deals to help make Ubuntu Vista's strongest copetitor
[08:22] <genii> jqd This will give you some idea of possible install candidates
[08:22] <dametalone> how so?
[08:22] <pe6950> hey, can someone look at my xorg.conf file, and maybe point out why twinview isn't working
[08:22] <Smilez> and I'm all about taking down Vista
[08:22] <pibarnas> Smilez You may see for yourself, after installing feisty.
[08:22] <lynucs> dametalone: better not to write on a ntfs-partition on linux.. it is possible, but i woudn't if that are important files
[08:23] <Smilez> pibarnas: I don't doubt that I'm going to love it. I'm positive of that
[08:23] <Smilez> pibarnas: you get that plugin removed?
[08:23] <dametalone> well i made a seperate partition for unbutu
[08:23] <lynucs> dametalone: if i were you, i would create a FAT32 exchange partition
[08:23] <JP79> hey, i installed ubuntu, moved the tower from one house to another, now the internet doesnt work.  how do i reconfigure the tower??  i tried sudo pppoeconf, but that didnt work.... doesnt ubuntu find it automatically?
[08:23] <Smerity__> lol, Smilez, you should thank Microsoft - Vista turned me to pure Linux =]  In the past I dual booted for games and such, but after trying to get Vista working it <expletive> me of so much that I just bailed on it lol
[08:23] <pibarnas> Smilez nope.
[08:24] <dametalone> well my buddy set it up yesterday.  He was able to read but on super user mode and i have no idea how to do it
[08:24] <Ryan__> mavericken,  did u install gnome?
[08:24] <Lowe> JP79: what tower do you mean?
[08:24] <cens0red> is feisty fawn beta ready for the desktop yet?
[08:24] <bullgard4> What is the meaning of the file extension '.desktop' in Ubuntu? Example: /usr/share/app-install/desktop/kalarm.desktop
[08:24] <Smilez> Smerity__: I constantly tell my clients not to upgrade to Vista
[08:24] <Lowe> cens0red: 4/20
[08:24] <Smilez> but one of them didn't listen and bought a new dell laptop
[08:24] <JP79> Lowe: i mean, i moved the computer from one location to the next
[08:24] <steve167> mavericken: y use a gui for a server?  learn the console
[08:24] <cens0red> Lowe ?
[08:24] <Smilez> Smerity__: he calls me to install a bluetooth mouse, and a wireless N router
[08:24] <xircx> ok whats do i type in sodu "sudo xircx 1"
[08:24] <xircx> right
[08:25] <genii> mavericken: Ask intelikey about a gui for servers and he will give you a good lecture :)
[08:25] <pibarnas> cens0red it depends on what do you want it for.
[08:25] <Smilez> in the process of installing the bluetooth mouse, it asked me "are you sure" a million times then kernal panicked dumped the phys memory and rebooted
[08:25] <Lowe> cens0red: 4/20 is the final release
[08:25] <xircx> when i do that it ask for a password then i put in the pass it says cannot be found
[08:25] <Smerity__> Smilez, came preinstalled on the box unfortunately
[08:25] <visionviper> heh 4/20
[08:25] <Smilez> after getting the mouse installed I tried getting it on the wireless network which failed several times and then that too gave us a BSOD
[08:25] <harpette> i thought he meant 4:20
[08:25] <cens0red> Lowe oh, you mean 20/04/07 ?
[08:25] <Smilez> finally it joined the wireless network... and I told him "If you have any more problems... return this thing ASAP"
[08:26] <Lowe> cens0red: yep ;)
[08:26] <Ryan__> i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. I have installed libapache-mod-php5 and restarted apache. What did I do wrong?
[08:26] <Ryan__> plz help me!
[08:26] <JP79> hrmmmmm
[08:26] <lynucs> dametalone: sudo mount -t ntfs -o ro,umask=0222 /dev/yourpartition /media/yourdir
[08:26] <Lowe> cens0red: from europe i suppose? ;)
[08:26] <genii> bullgard4: That extension means it is a shortcut/appears on your desktop
[08:26] <Smilez> It is my belief that MS is pushing Internet Explorer 7 onto all windows XP machines so that it slows their system down and they believe they need to upgrade their computer... at which point they will end up with a new vista system
[08:26] <cens0red> Lowe no, Aus.
[08:26] <visionviper> bulmer: any ideas?
[08:26] <lynucs> or sudo mount -t ntfs -o ro,user /dev/yourparition /media/yourwindir
[08:27] <Lowe> cens0red: ok, thougt 20/04 whas europe-notation only ;)
[08:27] <Smerity__> Smilez, I thought that was what viruses were designed for? =] 
[08:27] <Lowe> whatever..
[08:27] <Lowe> i'm gone...
[08:27] <Ryan__> i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. I have installed libapache-mod-php5 and restarted apache. What did I do wrong?
[08:27] <dametalone> i just opened up my snynaptic package manager and they had it so i installed the NTFS 3g
[08:27] <Smilez> Smerity__: No viruses are designed by people who want to make money selling spyware...
[08:27] <pibarnas> Smilez Being realistc, many people use windows because its market domination, so knowledge about it is demanded for clients.
[08:27] <Smilez> Smerity__: Truly, viruses barely exist now-a-days except to create spam, and generate ad revenue
[08:27] <harpette> JP79: so, at the new location, you have a dhcp router too? or the same?
[08:27] <dametalone> well i need windows untill im more knowledgeable of linux
[08:28] <Ryan__> i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. I have installed libapache-mod-php5 and restarted apache. What did I do wrong?
[08:28] <JP79> harpette i have the same set up
[08:28] <pe6950> hey, can someone look at this config: http://cvnweb.pastebin.ca/414720
[08:28] <changinfaces> I'm having problems with vi, at school when i use vi i have the pleasure of having colored syntax and most important the use of arrow keys and backspace key.  I also noticed this being a common complaint on forums
[08:28] <qfour20> well, looks like xp still boots after shrinking the partition.  Can still access ibm's tools in the bios too.  that "hidden partition" must mean "embedded in the first partition in a windows installation".
[08:28] <pe6950> I can't get twinview to work
[08:28] <pe6950> is there a good guide on this?
[08:28] <harpette> JP79: same tel line, different room?
[08:28] <Smilez> pibarnas: I'm an I.T. consultant, and 85% of my income is because of Windows failing, so I really don't mind if people keep using Windows.. but I always tell them to keep an open mind when thinking about software and operating systems
[08:28] <pibarnas> Smilez but, as I'm not in IT market, cause I'm lawyer, I stopped using it a long time ago.
[08:28] <bullgard4> genii: I do not understand all of your message: All files having the extension '.desktop' are to be displayed on my desktop? Why do you mention a 'shortcut'?
[08:28] <pe6950> I have followed 2 and not gotten anywere
[08:28] <pibarnas> Smilez and I don't regret a bit.
[08:28] <Smilez> Smerity__: Market domination as a result of getting away with multiple thefts
[08:28] <cens0red> Frogzoo
[08:28] <JP79> harpette different telephone line.  completely different house... different ip address
[08:29] <Ryan__> i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. I have installed libapache-mod-php5 and restarted apache. What did I do wrong?
[08:29] <Smilez> then continuing to steal ideas and claim them as their own
[08:29] <Smilez> and suing anyone who gets in their way
[08:29] <Smilez> which is why i support Www.showusthecode.com or whatever site it is
[08:29] <Frogzoo> cens0red: stalker
[08:29] <pibarnas> Smilez I'm a happy ubuntu user since 5.10.

[08:30] <cens0red> I emigrated from mandrake 10.1 to ubuntu 5.04. Was a good move.
[08:30] <genii> bullgard4: because may things on your desktop are merely something like a link/shortcut to an application or disk or similar.Whatever they do, it could be to run an application or not, if they have that extension, they are appearing on your desktop
[08:30] <zeiter> could someone help me???
[08:30] <harpette> JP79: do you get a dhcp connection at all?
[08:30] <jqg> How to support gt2 in php?
[08:30] <pe6950> I need help also
[08:30] <JP79> harpette 1st place... modem to router to computer. 2nd place, modem to router (acting as a switch) to computer
[08:30] <qfour20> is it necessary to specify a seperate /boot partition and manually create a swap partition if you tell the ubuntu installer "use the largest continuous free space"?
[08:30] <harpette> zeiter: can you be a bit more specific?
[08:30] <pe6950> hey, can someone look at this config: http://cvnweb.pastebin.ca/414720
[08:30] <pe6950> I can't get twinview to work
[08:30] <Ryan__> i installed apache2 and i installed php5.  When i got to my website firefox tries to download my test php script. I have installed libapache-mod-php5 and restarted apache. What did I do wrong?
[08:30] <catid> anyone know how to change the mac address for an ipw3945 wireless card?
[08:30] <Smerity__> pibarnas, you're a lawyer? My father's a lawyer and wants to move to Linux - anything he should watch out for profession wise I guess?
[08:30] <pibarnas> zeiter what's the problem with music?
[08:30] <Ryan__> can anybody help me?
[08:31] <Ryan__> please!
[08:31] <pe6950> Ryan__, what guide are you following
[08:31] <zeiter> harpette: alsa says it plays from a soundcard....open sound apps like xmms, no sound come out
[08:31] <pe6950> I am a gentoo nerd, but I can try
[08:31] <JP79> harpette what do you mean... in the computer?  i went to network under the system menu and it is set to dhcp
[08:31] <ivx> ryan__ what are you trying to do, i walked away
[08:31] <pibarnas> Smerity__ Yep, I'm a lawyer free from windows many years ago... without any problem...
[08:31] <visionviper> Ryan__: It sounds like, for some reason, the server is not letting the browser execute the .php script or something rather. I think it is a permissions prob.
[08:31] <Ryan__> okm how do i fic that
[08:32] <Ryan__> *ok
[08:32] <Ryan__> *fix
[08:32] <digen> Ryan__: do you have AddType and AddHandler setup in apache configuration file ?
[08:32] <ivx> yeah to bad the server compiles the scripts
[08:32] <Smerity__> pibarnas, glad to hear =]  Fears that OpenOffice wouldn't be compatible enough with MS Office for his purposes kind of stopped him making the move - I guess I'll move him to OpenOffice then from there to Ubuntu or similar
[08:32] <bullgard4> genii: Thank you for explaining.
[08:32] <pibarnas> Smerity__ encourage your father do the same... In few months he will forget "the other".
[08:32] <ivx> that is why they call it a server side language
[08:32] <Ryan__> digen What?
[08:32] <Smerity__> pibarnas, haha, he's always had it in for MS since the Lotus days =] 
[08:32] <harpette> JP79: it sounds to me like your new dsl modem + new router setup is not working. Plug in the comp directly into the modem just to check
[08:33] <genii> bullgard4: Glad to help
[08:33] <ivx> ryan__ how are you trying to look at your page? /localhost/
[08:33] <Ryan__> no, im going through my external ip and through my router
[08:33] <qfour20> is it necessary to specify a seperate /boot partition and manually create a swap partition if you tell the ubuntu installer "use the largest continuous free space"?
[08:33] <pibarnas> Smerity__ My father tried linux for some time. Now he says good things about it. I'm proud!
[08:34] <ivx> and it is prompting you to dl the file
[08:34] <JP79> harpette: well i have two computers in this new house.  both computers are behind the same router.  this one (the one running mirc) currently has a connection.  OS is windows.  the 2nd computer isnt working. OS is ubuntu 6.06
[08:34] <digen> Ryan__ : could you paste your apache configuration file in pastebin ?
[08:34] <Smerity__> lol ^_^
[08:34] <Frogzoo> qfour20: /boot is not required at all
[08:34] <Ryan__> wats pastebin?
[08:34] <ivx> dude you don't have to do anything to the apache config file
[08:34] <Frogzoo> qfour20: well, not as a separate partition
[08:34] <JP79> harpette so i think it's localized to the computer running ubuntu
[08:34] <digen> Ryan__: http://pastebin.com/
[08:35] <JP79> harpette i just dont know how to tell it to find the connection
[08:35] <qfour20> ...or is having a dedicated /boot no longer necessary?
[08:35] <harpette> JP79: ok. but you say the Ubuntu comp used to work at the previous location?
[08:35] <pibarnas> Smerity__ I think to a lawyer, the only application MS wins is powerpoint... as I never learned to handle that application, I prefer OpenOffice! :)
[08:35] <cens0red> my only whinge about ubuntu is the animal names.
[08:35] <|Amon|> is there a way to get a five button mouse working? the only thing i really miss about windows is my two buttons on my mouse i was able to use to go back and forth on webpages in ff without going up to the back button...
[08:35] <qfour20> doh... didn't see your reply Frogzoo
[08:35] <JP79> harpette yes, thats correct.  it used to work at the other location
[08:35] <zeiter> does anyone know how to make my spdif card work in linux?
[08:35] <Smerity__> pibarnas, lol, fair enough, I shall hammer it into him soon =]

[08:36] <tarzeau> docvegan: use mplayer-plugin? what kind of videos?
[08:36] <pibarnas> docvegan what kind of videos?
[08:37] <|Amon|> Frogzoo, thx
[08:37] <tarzeau> Frogzoo: yes, but do you think this is the answer to my question?

[08:40] <visionviper> docvegan: try it. It worked for me when I was having probs playing DVDs. I just installed VLC and it worked right off the bat.

[08:46] <nisq_57> handinugraha:  its seems like your video card might not be up to the task??????
[08:47] <coldfish> is there any packet program for simulating my researches like MATLAB ?
[08:47] <nisq_57> just a guess
[08:47] <harpette> JP79: OK i gotta go. Good luck. Have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[08:47] <nisq_57> you need at least a 5200 in the nvidia world,   I am not sure what the min would be in the ATI world
[08:47] <handinugraha> but i also use another linux , and it's working very well
[08:48] <intelikey> xterm help ?  can't get fonts big enough to read.  anyone?
[08:48] <pdedecker> I'm looking for a good program that can do screencapturing. Anything you can suggest?
[08:48] <chipbuddy> i'd like to get a gnome-terminal to behave like yakuake in that pressing some hotkeys will minimize/bring it back into focus... how do i do that?
[08:48] <jtraub> coldfish, scilab
[08:48] <charles> I have an amd64 chip (dual core) and the system monitor in gnome keeps saying its constantly using 100% cpu but all the processors show only the cpu usage coming from my first cpu is this accurate and if so how can i find out what is wasting my cpu
[08:49] <jtraub> coldfish, it supports m-files
[08:49] <nisq_57> My laptop does do beryl because of the video card,  my desktop does because the video card works, both use linux, Suse - Ubuntu - Fedora and mandriva
[08:49] <J-_> intelikey: 'man xterm' may tell you.
[08:49] <nisq_57> correction my laptop does not do beryl
[08:49] <intelikey> j-_    i have a warper script that calls     /usr/bin/xterm -bg black -fg gray -fs 18 "$@"
[08:50] <intelikey> j-_ but it doesn't seem to affect the font size
[08:50] <Smerity__> charles, go System -> Administration -> System Monitor and it should tell you what's using the CPU - and if that doesn't work go to console and type top
[08:50] <starkruzr> anyone here familiar with using mencoder to create avis out of jpegs?  it's giving me a bus error when I use the example from the docs.
[08:50] <J-_> I use gnome-terminal, sorry.
[08:50] <nisq_57> I am planning on getting a new laptop....  hey all vista has a shinking program,  you can now shink windows to make room for a linux partition,   woops sorry
[08:50] <deep> Is /proc really necessary?
[08:50] <intelikey> J-_ yeah ok.
[08:50] <nisq_57> hehe
[08:50] <coldfish> jtraub: thanks a lot
[08:51] <charles> Smerity__, i am in the system monitor it shows only 1-2% usage coming from the first cpu on the system monitor everything else is 0%
[08:51] <bill_k> what do I put after sudo in bash to get a prompt with root access?
[08:51] <intelikey> -i
[08:51] <nisq_57> sudo -i
[08:51] <qfour20> bill_k: sudo su -
[08:51] <J-_> nisq_57: #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:51] <JP79> harpette ya know what? let me make sure it's not the ethernet cable
[08:51] <Lowe> bill_k: sudo su
[08:51] <deep> If i did'nt want to know anything about the computer, /proc-support is not needed, right? X / gnome / whatever wont break if i compile a kernel without /proc-sopport?
[08:51] <J-_> heh
[08:51] <bill_k> thanks all
[08:51] <muchmusic> sudo -s too =p
[08:51] <bill_k> lol
[08:52] <nisq_57> being able to install ubunutu is on topic sorry J-
[08:52] <JP79> brb
[08:52] <Smerity__> charles, sorry, mental blank when I read you're using the System Monitor - if it doesn't seem accurate there, go to console and type in top - see if that has anything
[08:52] <qfour20> sudo vi .profile <enter> !bash <enter>
[08:52] <jtraub> coldfish, also check GNU/Octave (http://www.octave.org/)
[08:52] <docvegan> is there a way to figure out my way around ubuntu, it seems like only a person with a degree in computers can figure it out
[08:52] <zeiter> qfour20: do you read my msgs in private??
[08:53] <qfour20> zeiter: i do not see them
[08:53] <zeiter> weird.
[08:53] <zeiter> im using xchat
[08:53] <stevieb> im using xchat too
[08:53] <qfour20> irssi
[08:53] <charles> Smerity__, when i do that nothing much shows up that would make me think my 2nd cpu is being used at 100% but the thing in system monitor says 100%ish on cpu number 2 I have no idea why
[08:53] <intelikey> docvegan did you figure out windows in a day?    you need to give yourself time to learn a new os.
[08:53] <coldfish> jtraub: Ok thanks, im downloading
[08:54] <Suurorca> Smerity__: I've been told that top actually counts twice the memory shared between applications, so it is off, too.
[08:54] <ChinaForge_Ubunt> hello,I try install ubuntu 7.04 beta,but false.
 do you see this message
 YES
[08:55] <muchmusic> ChinaForge_Ubunt: probably need more information and might be the wrong room
[08:55] <Smerity__> Suurorca, fair enough, but we were focusing on CPU usage
[08:55] <Lowe> hmm, i've installed beryl, with the emerald theme manager, but the theme-manager shows no borders around windows
[08:55] <Smerity__> charles, very strange :S Not exactly sure then mate, sorry ...
[08:55] <Suurorca> coldfish: octave is fairly decent matlab clone, but there are some functions that do not exist in octave and you might also need to tune some of your syntax to get the scripts run with octave
[08:55] <charles> yup
[08:55] <J-_> nisq_57: 'I am planning on getting a new laptop....  hey all vista has a...' etc. is not on topic =P
[08:56] <qfour20> zeiter: brb, we'll see if ubuntu boots properly
[08:57] <Lowe> nobody an idea?
[08:58] <nisq_57> J- being able to shink the partition size and create more partions to install ubuntu is on topic
[08:58] <nisq_57> shrink
 hm i see.. i will make a new simulation so its not a big deal:)
[08:58] <genii> Lowe: Try #ubuntu-effects
i will use its scripts
[08:58] <Geoffrey2> hmmm, I believe Ubuntu has stalled out or something doing a software update
[08:58] <ChinaForge_Ubunt> muchmusic:I download from http://nl.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04
[08:59] <Lowe> genii: running in a terminal i suppose?

[08:59] <Trek^> hi guys!how can i connect a dial internet connection?
[08:59] <Trek^> hi guys!how can i connect a dial-up internet connection?
[09:00] <genii> Lowe: No. I mean that the irc channel called #ubuntu-effects  is a better place to try asking about that subject, and not in this channel
[09:00] <Lowe> genii: thnx
[09:00] <genii> Lowe: Yer welcome
[09:00] <muchmusic> ChinaForge_Ubunt: does the live cd boot up? maybe try alternate-install cd or look in the wiki
[09:00] <ChinaForge_Ubunt> yes
[09:01] <Trek^> can the live cd connect a dial-up internet connection?
[09:02] <Geoffrey2> how can I stop a software update once the install process has started?
[09:02] <genii> First you should make sure you don't have some kind of "winmodem"
[09:02] <ChinaForge_Ubunt> muchmusic:I boot up for live cd.
[09:03] <ChinaForge_Ubunt> muchmusic:but i can't login.
[09:03] <SmileY> is there any download manager
[09:03] <SmileY> with i can pause my downloads ?
[09:03] <muchmusic> ChinaForge_Ubunt: try the alternate install cd from the site, otherwise it is too much for me =)
[09:03] <ChinaForge_Ubunt> muchmusic:prompt a error message:You session only lasted less than 10 seconds.......
[09:03] <jqg> How to find the installation directory after I use 'aptitude install'???
[09:04] <ChinaForge_Ubunt> muchmusic:i look in the wiki,but can't find.
[09:04] <J-_> jqg: 'locate program name' maybe help
[09:05] <ChinaForge_Ubunt> muchmuic:OK,Thank you.
[09:05] <muchmusic> =)
[09:05] <budluva> can someone help me get my usb harddrive running? i just installed all updates to feisty beta, and it didnt detect my usb harddrive on boot, and i tried plugging and unplugging it, power down, power on, and its still not detecting
[09:05] <budluva> any suggestions?
[09:05] <jqg> J-_, cannot find
[09:05] <Suurorca> jqg, you should be able to call the program from the command line if you just know it's not name (unfortunately it's not always the same as the package name). The binaries usually go down to /usr/bin1;5D
[09:06] <J-_> jqg: the program may be in /usr/share/
[09:07] <Trek^> can the live cd connect a dial-up internet connection?
[09:08] <genii> Trek^ Yes. But only if your modem is not a type called "winmodem"
[09:08] <Spliffster> Trek^: i have never tried it but it looked like all needed software is available on the cd
[09:08] <jqg> J-_,cannot find,it's a lib,not program
[09:08] <jqg> Suurorca>	cannot find, it's libgd2
[09:09] <muchmusic> jqg you ought to still be able to use (s)locate to find the files it will just take some effort to look through the list of results =)
[09:10] <xX-ACID-Xx> how do change the buttons colour like back and forward and stuf
[09:10] <jqg> muchmusic>	by package name?
[09:10] <shatrat> xX-ACID-Xx, like in firefox?
[09:11] <LinuxProbie> Hey people, How do I install the new ndiswrapper on feisty (1.9 I think?)
[09:11] <xX-ACID-Xx> yeh and in everything else
[09:11] <genii> Trek^:  If it's not a winmodem see the bottom of this page, 1st or 2nd method: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[09:12] <shatrat> xX-ACID-Xx, well, there are themes just for firefox for it's toolbar buttons like back and forwards.  Most other buttons in GTK apps, most of Gnome, you can skin the buttons and menus and stuff with GTK themes.
[09:12] <joseph> where can I find a Feisty Beta live cd (kubuntu if possible)?
[09:12] <Plecebo> can someone help me try and figure out why my USB flash memory card reader is having trouble?
[09:12] <muchmusic> joseph: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04
[09:12] <shatrat> xX-ACID-Xx, the firefox themes you can install from the gnome website, and you can get GTK themes from gnome-look.org and there are already a few different themes installed if you look in System -> Preferences -> Theme
[09:13] <Plecebo> when I plug it in (either with or w/o the car inserted it will not recognize and mount the card)
[09:13] <LinuxProbie> joseph: or you can run "update-manager -d" from a terminal if you're in 6.10
[09:13] <Trek^> genii: how can i determine if my winmodem is compatible with ubuntu?
[09:13] <bibe> hi all! I have just installed Ubuntu 7.04 beta, then I installed some applications, including a couple of KDE apps, and psi, that makes use of KDE libraries. psi's GUI is rendered very ugly (big fonts, weird borders): is there any library I have to install to make it look more gnome-ish, as it looks on Ubuntu 6.10?
[09:13] <Plecebo> even if I disconnect the card reader it does not remove the "drives" in the drive manager
[09:14] <shiva> how to switch from console mode to gui mode in ubuntu server version
[09:14] <shatrat> Plecebo, I had trouble in one of my USB sockets and when I moved my flash drive to a different socket it worked.  That might help you, otherwise Im not sure what to try.  Maybe a sugar pill
[09:14] <Spliffster> bibe: #ubuntu+1 for feisty descussion
[09:14] <joseph> LinuxProbie: but no kubuntu, is there?
[09:14] <bibe> Spliffster : thanks very much
[09:14] <genii> Trek^: The instructions for that are on the top of the link I gave earlier
[09:14] <Spliffster> nm
[09:14] <shatrat> shiva, I dont have the server version, but its probably either "startx" or "/etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[09:15] <Jowi> bibe, use qtconfig (I think) to set kde/qt theme fonts etc. #ubuntu+1 is otherwise for feisty.
[09:15] <muchmusic> joseph: none on that url... but http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.04-beta.php has kubuntu links
[09:15] <shiva> i tried startx but its cant switch
[09:15] <shatrat> shiva, you might want to install "ubuntu-desktop" first, and then use "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[09:16] <joseph> <muchmusic:
[09:16] <Jowi> bibe, an alternative is the package gtk2-engines-gtk-qt
[09:16] <joseph> muchmusic: this is where I looked first but are they live CD's?
[09:16] <docvegan> how do i get firefox to use a different video player
[09:16] <LinuxProbie> so yah, I really need to know how to install the latest version of ndiswrapper (1.9)
[09:16] <joseph> muchmusic:  my ISP has download size limits :(
[09:16] <shiva> iam useing server virsion for server
[09:16] <pewee> how do i extract part-rars? (r01,r02,r03) per command line?
[09:16] <Plecebo> shatrat, thanks for the suggestion, I just tried it in all of my USB ports (8 in all) and none work. The light on the drive comes on... and stays on (which is different behavior to how it works on my other machine running same version of ubuntu)
[09:17] <PresuntoRJ> I have managed to install the current 7.04 beta from a CD, and even update from a edgy on my laptop, but I cannot dist-upgrade from a dapper to edgy, cause it fails miserably on the Xorg dependencies... any clues?
[09:17] <Jowi> docvegan, simply select another player from the dialog after you have clicked the movie link.
[09:17] <muchmusic> joseph: ooh tricky. http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/7.04/ these ones are live cds... the first choices
[09:17] <shatrat> Plecebo, I dont know how to go about manually mounting a USB drive, sorry
[09:17] <Trek^> thanks genii!
[09:17] <docvegan> there is no dialogue
[09:17] <docvegan> it just automatically uses totem which never works
[09:17] <genii> Trek^:  Hope it helps :)
[09:18] <Trek^> genii: how about connecting to DSL connection?is it automatic when i turn-on the external modem?
[09:18] <Jowi> docvegan, in firefox: edit -> prefs -> contents -> filetypes: "Manage"
[09:18] <shiva> how to exit after check my ip address in ubuntu server
[09:19] <HamishTPB> does anyone know why a process called "whiptail" (which as far as I can see is some sort of dialogue box related program) would be running taking up 99% cpu time when I looked at my PC this morning (all that is running is Konversation and Kontact and I never seen whiptail before)
[09:19] <Jowi> shiva, exit what?
[09:19] <docvegan> doesnt allow me to add
[09:19] <joseph> muchmusic:  thanks a lot, downloading now
[09:19] <docvegan> there is no type for videos
[09:19] <muchmusic> =)
[09:20] <J-_> !whiptail
[09:20] <ubotu> whiptail: Displays user-friendly dialog boxes from shell scripts. In component main, is important. Version 0.52.2-5.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 33 kB, installed size 92 kB
[09:20] <genii> Trek^:  It depends on if you are using the dsl modem straight thru to the computer and it gets an IP from the internet or if you have a router in between and it gives the username/password to the modem. Router is better, the computer just connects automagically. If modem to computer then you need to set up the connection as a pppoe connection on the computer
[09:20] <Trek^> what should i do if i want to install chm files?
[09:20] <Jowi> docvegan, that is strange. if you use gnome how about checking "gnome-default-applications-properties" ?
[09:20] <HamishTPB> J-_: yeah that is all I could find out but I can't see any reason for it to be running
[09:20] <docvegan> i have no idea what that means jowi
[09:20] <J-_> !info whiptail
[09:20] <ubotu> whiptail: Displays user-friendly dialog boxes from shell scripts. In component main, is important. Version 0.52.2-5.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 33 kB, installed size 92 kB
[09:20] <J-_> hmm
[09:21] <docvegan>  what is gnome
[09:21] <adamh> Despite my CPU usage being 0% and the governor being "ondemand", my Feisty never uses Centrino's speedstep. Any ideas?
[09:21] <jtraub> Trek^, GnoCHM
[09:21] <adamh> Throttling works, but not scaling.
[09:21] <shiva> vi etc/network/interfaces i used this command to check my ip i can check the ip but how to exit from there
[09:21] <Jowi> docvegan, gnome is probably the desktop environment you use if you installed ubuntu. if you installed kubuntu it is kde
[09:21] <yell0w> hey folks, is it ok to install different version of python on a system ?
[09:22] <docvegan> probably using gnome, i'll see if i can locate
[09:22] <jtraub> yell0w, yes
[09:22] <Trek^> genii: i mean i have a router for DSL. so i can automatically connect to the internet?
[09:22] <jtraub> yell0w, i've installed python 2.4 (by default) and python 2.5. End everything works fine
[09:22] <yell0w> jtraub, how would that change things ? what's the default ?
[09:22] <docvegan> i hate linux, nothing i need to use works here except the basic browser
[09:23] <adamh> docvegan: So stop using it :)
[09:23] <yell0w> docvegan, what do you want to do ?
[09:23] <docvegan> i want to be able to color correct my screen so i can do graphics
[09:23] <J-_> docvegan: what are you running. edgy?
[09:23] <yell0w> adamh, that's not very encouraging you know
[09:23] <jtraub> yell0w, I mean, that 'python' in console runs python 2.4
[09:23] <Trek^> jtraub: wer can i find the GnoCHM?is it already bundled on Ubuntu?
[09:23] <docvegan> linux is useless for a graphics professional unless you can color correct the screen
[09:23] <genii> Trek^:  A router is not a modem.
[09:24] <Jowi> Trek^, if you have a dsl modem directly connected to the computer then either the modem or the computer handle the connection. however, if you use a router then it's either the router or the modem that connects. check your router config.
[09:24] <jtraub> !GnoCHM

[09:24] <jtraub> Trek^, install via apt-get or synaptic
[09:24] <coldboot> Does anyone have an Audigy SE working in Ubuntu?
[09:24] <docvegan> also it would be nice to have aol work, i get aol 5 to work, but it is very limited
[09:24] <Trek^> Jowi: thanks!
[09:24] <adamh> yell0w: Huh? Why waste time with people who aren't willing to keep an open mind? Shouldn't this channel be limited to discussions of how to use Ubuntu?
[09:24] <anthony_> hi, today my gnome-window-decorator dissappeared..
[09:25] <mojo> coldboot: audigy 2 zs works, dunno about se tho
[09:25] <genii> Jowi:  Thanks for the clarification :)
[09:25] <anthony_> yest there were loads of updates.. what could have happened?
[09:25] <docvegan> the 2 main advantages of linux is it is fast and i dont have to worry about viruses
[09:25] <shiva> vi etc/network/interfaces i used this command to check my ip i can check the ip but how to exit from there
[09:25] <yell0w> adamh, i just thought that he was complaining because he needs help and gets frustrated, that's all
[09:25] <Flannel> shiva: `:q`
[09:25] <adamh> anthony_: Is the process actually running? (gtk-window-decorator)
[09:25] <coldboot> mojo: I had it working earlier today, on a 2.6.17 kernel, but now it doesn't work on 2.6.17 or 2.6.18. I think it's because I installed ALSA.
[09:25] <J-_> docvegan: if you're using edgy, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy
[09:25] <Trek^> jtraub: thanks!
[09:26] <adamh> yell0w: Maybe. I'm quite comfortable with how little I care ;)
[09:26] <Flannel> J-_, docvegan, use the ubuntu wiki (help.ubuntu.com) over ubuntuguide.  Not everything u-g recommends is safe.
[09:26] <anthony_> yes, but when i do in the console it comes apt-get install cgwd cgwd-themes
[09:26] <anthony_> oops wrong paste
[09:26] <anthony_> bash: gnome-window-decorator: command not found
[09:26] <chipbuddy> can i set a hotkey to minimize/restore a specific window (a terminal window)?
[09:26] <adamh> anthony_: gtk-window-decorator
[09:26] <docvegan> i wish there was a central logic i could understand
[09:26] <anthony_> i use the "thefuture" script ...
[09:26] <J-_> Flannel: k, I just recommended it because it's helped me a lot in the past.
[09:26] <HamishTPB> chipbuddy: you could use something like yakuake
[09:26] <adamh> anthony_ (I think)
[09:27] <mojo> coldboot: i thought alsa was installed on ubuntu by default.  i am using alsa with the emu10k1 driver for audigy 2's sound chip
[09:27] <chipbuddy> i'd prefer to use gnome-terminal
[09:27] <Trek^> jtraub: how about running pdf files?what should i need to do?
[09:27] <anthony_> yes its there in the system monitor..
[09:27] <HamishTPB> chipbuddy: afraid I don't know about gnome's abilities on key handling
[09:27] <adamh> anthony_: But you don't see window decorations?
[09:27] <mojo> coldboot: honestly it has been a long time since i messed with setting it up (b/c i have two sound dev's... mobo and audigy card)
[09:28] <fotoflo> im looking into buying a new linux box to run my server on and I saw a machine with a GeForce2 Chipset MB,  is this well supported?
[09:28] <anthony_> adamh: normal metacity works fine, when I try to load xgl/compiz it fails telling me gnome-window-decorator does not exist
[09:28] <coldboot> mojo: Audigy 4 SE is the ca0106
[09:28] <adamh> anthony_: It should be gtk-window-decorator :)
[09:28] <Spliffster> fotoflo: if you are meaning nforce chipset, then yes
[09:28] <anthony_> let me try
[09:28] <budluva> anyone here have a vantec nexstar 3 hdd enclosure? im having problems getting ubuntu to detect my usb hdd, it doesnt detect on boot and nothing in fdisk either
[09:28] <anthony_> adamh: i have been using it for months loading it with thefuture script..
[09:28] <adamh> anthony_: The window decoration stuff changes quite regularly these days...
[09:28] <adamh> anthony_: Ah, I know nothing about thefuture :)
[09:29] <fotoflo> Spliffster, cool thanks
[09:29] <shiva> i press q but its cant exit
[09:29] <anthony_> adamh: got it from the ubuntu unofficial guide, anways let me try it
[09:29] <crazy_penguin> Hello
[09:29] <changinfaces> what is the name of the package manager in Ubuntu?
[09:29] <jtraub> crazy_penguin, hi!
[09:29] <fotoflo> Spliffster, yeah thats what i meant
[09:30] <jtraub> changinfaces, apt
[09:30] <Flannel> changinfaces: dpkg
[09:30] <Trek^> how to run pdf files?
[09:30] <shiva> i press q but its cant exit
[09:30] <Flannel> shiva: hit escape, then `:q` and hit enter
[09:30] <jtraub> Trek^, you shoud view them with Evince
[09:31] <shiva> ya  i got it
[09:31] <shiva> tqqqqqqqqq
[09:31] <changinfaces> Flannel: i'm more convinced with your answer b/c when I come across reading aptitude - which is the interface to the package manager
[09:31] <Trek^> where can i find Evince?
[09:31] <exsa_07> ng
[09:31] <genii> budlova Have it plugged into the computer and powered up before booting the computer
[09:31] <Dogun> Trek^: "sudo apt-get install evince" in terminal if it is not installed
[09:31] <Dogun> and ello all
[09:31] <jtraub> Trek^, press Alt+F2 and type into the textbox 'evince'
[09:32] <mojo> Trek^: if it is not installed try synaptic from the admin menu or sudo apt-get install evince... but methinks it is a default package
[09:32] <jtraub> Trek^, Evince is preinstalled package in Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft
[09:32] <shiva> how to change from console mode to guimode plz
[09:32] <budluva> can anyone here point me in the right direction on getting my usb harddrive working?
[09:32] <Flannel> changinfaces: apt-get and aptitude (and synaptic and adept and more) are both frontends to dpkg.  Well, they're frontends that also know about online stuff.
[09:32] <shiva> in ubuntu server
[09:32] <adamh> anthony_: The thing to remember about the Ubuntu Unofficial Guide is that the people who contribute it *aren't* Ubuntu developers (otherwise it'd be official, right?). And since the barriers to entry to being an Ubuntu developer are ridiculously low, it stands to reason the quality suffers.
[09:32] <anthony_> adamh: do you know how to load compiz/xgl using the gtk-window-decorator ?
[09:32] <coldboot> mojo: For some reason it's fixed, by mucking around with the alsamixer settings.
[09:32] <anthony_> yes i agree adamh..
[09:32] <adamh> anthony_: No...
[09:32] <Flannel> changinfaces: but, there's nothing saying you *have* to you use online packages.  Technically, youcould sneakernet everythign in, and install it (and track dependencies etc) with dpkg
[09:32] <anthony_> okay il look into it...
[09:33] <mojo> coldboot: cool beanz
[09:33] <adamh> anthony_: I'm using Feisty, which uses AIGLX and configures everything for you.
[09:33] <genii> sigh
[09:33] <Flannel> changinfaces: but, dpkg is usually far too low level for most people's everyday use, since it doesn't know about repositories or anything of the like.
[09:33] <changinfaces> Flannel: could you have used dpkg w/o those frontends and does it make u more hardcore so to speak to be using dpkg directly?
[09:33] <adamh> So if you're keen on bleeding-edge (and evidently you are, you're using compiz) you may consider a dist-upgrade
[09:33] <anthony_> adamh: is there a risk my system crashes if i install aiglx over what i already have?
[09:33] <belracu> using acpid how do i pop out nautilus for usb-pen driver events
[09:33] <mojo> changinfaces: dkpg manages the debs, but you have apt command line utilities, aptitude textual front end, and synaptic gfx front end
[09:34] <shiva> how to change from console mode to guimode plz
[09:34] <mojo> changinfaces: debs being debian packages
[09:34] <adamh> anthony_: Uh... sure. AIGLX is better-maintained than XGL I think.
[09:34] <belracu> shiv type init 5
[09:34] <adamh> anthony_: But there's always a risk :)
[09:34] <PresuntoRJ> changinfaces: any one you want installed, but the defaults are dpkg, apt and synaptic. there is also the update-manager and a simple "Add/remove" program to add and remove, but they are all compatible and interchangable
[09:34] <Trek^> Dogun: what is the of the terminal?
[09:34] <anthony_> adamh: from where can i get aiglx ?
[09:35] <Flannel> changinfaces: if you wanted to, sure.  But, dpkg is around more for the times when you need to get lower level.  I certainly hope no one uses it all the time just to be 'hardcore'.  But yeah, if you wanted, you could use exclusively dpkg
[09:35] <Dogun> Trek^: now I dont quite get you, you mean where to find terminal?
[09:35] <Spliffster> !aiglx
[09:35] <ubotu> AIGLX (Accelerated Indirect GLX) is an open source project founded by the X.Org Foundation and the Fedora Core Linux community to allow accelerated indirect GLX rendering capabilities to X.org and DRI drivers. This allows remote X clients to get fully hardware accelerated rendering over the GLX protocol. Head to #ubuntu-effects for support.
[09:35] <mojo> anthony_: aiglx is a feature set extension to the X-windows server, X.Org
[09:35] <genii> budluva: Right now there is no autodetect method for eSATA . Ubuntu will only see it if the enclosure is powered up and plugged into the computer before the computer boots. Hopefully soon someone will write a udev.rule for it. But until then it will not autodect magically.
[09:35] <budluva> its not esata
[09:35] <Dogun> Trek^: click applications -> accessories -> terminal
[09:35] <Trek^> Dogun: i mean where is it located?
[09:35] <budluva> its just a plain ata drive
[09:36] <budluva> attached via usb
[09:36] <adamh> anthony_: Upgrade to Feisty and it comes with.
[09:36] <Trek^> what is the meaning Edgy Eft?
[09:36] <mojo> anthony_: for you to have AIGLX you must have direct rendering capable video driver in X, i believe
[09:36] <anthony_> okay 10x
[09:36] <shiva> how to change from console mode to guimode plz
[09:36] <adamh> anthony_: The Ubuntu Wiki has instructions for Edgy, too.
[09:36] <anthony_> mojo: xgl worked fine before gnome-window-decorator dissapeared this morning ..
[09:36] <anthony_> adamh: okay i shall look into it..
[09:36] <adamh> anthony_: Also, the Ubuntu Wiki has instructions on setting up XGL. Those instructions likely work.
[09:36] <Spliffster> anthony_: are you using beryl ?
[09:36] <Dogun> shiva: havent lately installed server version of ubuntu, but I think there aint no gui on it
[09:36] <anthony_> Spliffster: no i was using compiz..
[09:37] <Spliffster> anthony_: ok ..
[09:37] <mojo> anthony_: xgl is different.. it is a partial x-server in it's own right that renders OpenGL to an underlying x-server, if i understand it right.
[09:37] <anthony_> all: what i know is that yesterday there were some updates named xgl and compiz..
[09:37] <Flannel> Dogun, shiva, the server isn't a "special" version.  It uses the same repos as everything else.
[09:37] <PresuntoRJ> is there a channel specific for laptops? I am current on feisty
[09:37] <shiva> i already in stalled but i cant go to gui mode
[09:37] <anthony_> and this morning it didnt work anymore..
[09:37] <shiva> u hav any idea wat is the command for tat
[09:37] <Flannel> shiva: `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start` if you installed ubuntu.  then ctrl-alt-f7
[09:38] <CrackUhToeUh> Hello!
[09:38] <CrackUhToeUh> How is everyone doing?

[09:38] <CrackUhToeUh> Ubuntu is cool
[09:38] <DrSlump> hello
[09:38] <CrackUhToeUh> I have a slight problem, regarding the headphone jack
[09:38] <Trek^> what are Universe and Multiverse?
[09:38] <Flannel> !repositories | Trek^
[09:38] <ubotu> Trek^: 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
[09:39] <shiva> i installed ubuntu server version
[09:39] <CrackUhToeUh> I am running a dell inspiron e1505. whenever i hibernate my computer, afterwards plugging in headphones makes sound come out of both the internal laptop speakers and headphones port. any suggestions?
[09:39] <anthony_> 10x all..
[09:39] <Trek^> ubotu: thanks!
[09:39] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[09:39] <changinfaces> Flanneljust a little curiosity when I came across having to (and about to) upgrade the vim-tiny that came with my ubuntu install
[09:39] <Flannel> shiva: If you installed the server version, and nothing else, then you don't have a GUI currently
[09:40] <CrackUhToeUh> if you want to install a gui type in "$sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[09:40] <Flannel> changinfaces: vim-tiny is the default, you probably want to install the full 'vim' package.
[09:40] <DrSlump> is there a way to grep for hexadecimal values in files? i've read the man page and dont find how to do it... i'd like to find files matching FF FB C6 10
[09:40] <changinfaces> Flannel: i read on many forums many users are having this problem
[09:40] <shiva> any choice to get gui mode
[09:40] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:40] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: you will need your ubuntu livecd in the disk drive
[09:40] <shiva> i got cd
[09:40] <shiva> can i do with tat
[09:40] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: i do not recommend GUI on server, you should really just SSH/FTP in. It saves disk space and memory
[09:40] <LinuxProbie> Hey guys, I have a BIG problem
[09:40] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: whats up?
[09:41] <changinfaces> Flannel: problem of not being able to use the arrow keys, backspace and syntax highlighting (which is a must)
[09:41] <LinuxProbie> I did the walkthrough to install my wireless driver on feisty and it totally blew up
[09:41] <LinuxProbie> iwconfig doesn't show anything
[09:41] <J-_> ...
[09:41] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: are you using a laptop?
[09:41] <shiva> ya but iam much expert in commands tats y
[09:41] <genii> shiva If you don't know why the server version doesn't have a gui you probably want to install the regular ubuntu
[09:41] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh: Yup
[09:41] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: you should install the regular ubuntu and then install mysql, php, and apache separately
[09:41] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: is it a dell laptop?
[09:42] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh: You guessed it
[09:42] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: i think the problem is that you didn't blacklist the broadcom drivers
[09:42] <Flannel> changinfaces: right.  vim-tiny doesn't even have modes.  You need the full fledged vim
[09:42] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: you should boot ubuntu in MEMTEST mode, login as root and type in blacklist >> bcm43x
[09:42] <Lord_Maynoth_42> I was wondering anyone know if k3b 1.0 is gonna make it into feisty?
[09:42] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: i believe bcm43x is the driver that should be blacklisted
[09:42] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: but don't quote me
[09:43] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: does the wifi light turn on/
[09:43] <Lord_Maynoth_42> Krakatoa?
[09:43] <Lord_Maynoth_42> haha
[09:43] <CrackUhToeUh> yeah, the island that blew up
[09:43] <shiva> in regulor versioin we can host to other sever or not
[09:43] <CrackUhToeUh> i wanted to be clever :(
[09:43] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: what do you mean host to other server?
[09:43] <Lord_Maynoth_42> my theory of the universe is called my big toe
[09:44] <changinfaces> Flannel: well there is visual and insert mode which are essential
[09:44] <Flannel> shiva: there's no different in linux between a "desktop" and a "server".  They both can run server-ish stuff, and desktop-ish stuff.
[09:44] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: You have two options if you want a server. Option A: go with server distro, which has no GUI. Option B: use desktop ubuntu and install apache, mysql, php manually
[09:44] <shiva> i mean now iam going up my server this sever i want hosting to other server
[09:44] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: what do you mean "hosting to other server"
[09:44] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: your english is terrible, sorry
[09:45] <shiva> i mean connect
[09:45] <CrackUhToeUh> OH
[09:45] <CrackUhToeUh> open a terminal
[09:45] <budluva> so how do i enable my usb harddrive?
[09:45] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: type in SSH [host name]  -l [USERNAME] 
[09:45] <budluva> its not shoing in fdisk -l, but something shows up under lsusb
[09:45] <budluva> is there a module not loading?
[09:45] <CrackUhToeUh> budluva: is it a usb disk, or a usb to IDE
[09:45] <budluva> it seems lib_ata and usbcore are loaded
[09:45] <OkinawaInstructo> how do i mount an external hard drive?  i keep getting an error "/dev/sda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab"
[09:46] <budluva> CrackUhToeUh: ide to usb
[09:46] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: did that solve your problem?
[09:46] <CrackUhToeUh> budluva: you're fucked
[09:46] <CrackUhToeUh> budluva: srry :(
[09:46] <Flannel> !language
[09:46] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:46] <budluva> ubuntu wont read external enclosures?
[09:46] <CrackUhToeUh> budluva: i've tried it, but to no avail
[09:46] <CrackUhToeUh> budluva: run a few google searches
[09:46] <J-_> budluva: Mine works.
[09:47] <shiva> how to download php n my sql n apache for unix
[09:47] <budluva> J-_: how did you get it working?
[09:47] <Dogun> I am atm using a ide to usb hard drive
[09:47] <genii> budlova The model you specified should be automatically recognised if you are using the usb cable and not the eSATA cable. So it is likely some cabling or jumper issue of the hd in this case. It should be seen as /dev/sda    . Which means it should be the master drive on the first ribbon in the enclosure.
[09:47] <LinuxProbie> so I got booted
[09:47] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: type in sudo apt-get install apache2, mysql, php5.0
[09:47] <Dogun> worked by jsut connecting
[09:47] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh: I did blacklist the driver
[09:47] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: OR reinstall ubuntu server with lamp-server mode
[09:47] <fotoflo> ok, so im about to buy a new pc for a server... im in china, and im going to buy a used one for about $100 and i have a couple of options, what do you guys think is best:  rackmount p3 833 (expandable to 2 proccessors) + hotswapable 18GB 10000RPM SCSI + 1GB ram    OR     Desktop  P4 1.8 GHZ 256mb ram 80 gb hd?
[09:47] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: and it still upgraded?
[09:47] <genii> budluva The model you specified should be automatically recognised if you are using the usb cable and not the eSATA cable. So it is likely some cabling or jumper issue of the hd in this case. It should be seen as /dev/sda    . Which means it should be the master drive on the first ribbon in the enclosure.
[09:47] <shiva> i already installed lamp server
[09:47] <genii> I need to use the tab key more :)
[09:47] <LinuxProbie> crack what upgraded?

[09:49] <CrackUhToeUh> sponix: no...........
[09:49] <shiva> for tat i need down load php,mysql and apache
[09:49] <genii> budluva: Yes, they normally get recognised as a SCSI drive
[09:49] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: Its all in the repositories
[09:49] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: sudo apt-get upgrade, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get install apache2, mysql, php
[09:49] <Flannel> shiva: No.  YOu've already installed the server, you already have Apache, PHP, SQL, etc installed.
[09:49] <budluva> well how do i get a list of connect scsi devices?
[09:49] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva:php5 i  think
[09:49] <sponix> ok, anyone have a clue about fixing it ?
[09:50] <CrackUhToeUh> flannel: he is installing on ubuntu desktop, i think he wants a GUI

[09:50] <Flannel> !offtopic | CrackUhToeUh
[09:50] <ubotu> CrackUhToeUh: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:50] <CrackUhToeUh> i was curious :)
[09:50] <genii> budluva: It only uses a layer of SCSI commands to interface to the usb port. So you want instead commands for the usb port. To see if it is being seen by the hardware you could do:   lsusb    to see if the output sjows the drive
[09:50] <shiva> how to install  php,mysql and apache ubuntu dext top version
[09:51] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: you want to use synaptics
[09:51] <CrackUhToeUh> shiva: synaptics package manager, select apache2, php5, and mysql
[09:51] <budluva> budluva@feisty:~$ lsusb

[09:51] <budluva> genii, thats works, nothing shows in fdisk - l though
[09:51] <genii> budluva Good, it sees the adapter at least.
[09:52] <pe6950> I just wanted to say that you guys are awesome
[09:52] <pe6950> thanks for rocking!
[09:52] <pe6950> :S
[09:52] <pe6950> :D
[09:52] <genii> budluva My first sense is that inside the box the hard drive is not connected properly.
[09:52] <CrackUhToeUh> skeet skeet skeet
[09:52] <budluva> genii: im gonna say it is
[09:52] <budluva> power cable connected, ribbon connected, led connected, drive set to master
[09:53] <CrackUhToeUh> budluva: check the dip switches
[09:53] <eexpress> 
[09:53] <genii> budluva Is it on the end of tha cable and not the middle? Is the master/slave/cable select  jumper on the drive set to Master ?
[09:53] <CrackUhToeUh> budluva: is master what mfg recommends?
[09:53] <LinuxProbie> ok...I can't seem to stay connected using gaim.
[09:53] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: any luck with ndiswrapper/broadcom driver?
[09:53] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh I've blacklisted the driver, so what do you think went wrong?
[09:53] <eexpress> 
[09:53] <budluva> its the only connecter on the ribbon and it was set to cable select, that didnt work, so i changed to master, and it still doesnt work
[09:53] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: is the 'wifi' light on
[09:53] <LinuxProbie> no
[09:54] <genii> budluva: Also ensure ribbon is seated properly on both ends
[09:54] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: fn + f2?
[09:54] <Zewey|away> eexpress: yeah. :P
[09:54] <eexpress> matri:
[09:54] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh Turns off my bluetooth
[09:54] <eexpress> Zewey|away:
[09:54] <matri> eexpress, -_-b
[09:54] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: >.<
[09:54] <eexpress> 
[09:55] <pe6950> wut
[09:55] <genii> budluva: If all connections look proper and secure, then power the enclosure off then back up. Wait about 30 seconds then do:     fdisk -l /dev/sda
[09:55] <budluva> genii: yeah everything is good
[09:55] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: linuxprobie: goto this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1741197&postcount=1
[09:55] <pe6950> omg the chinese chars work by default in terminal :D
[09:55] <pe6950> amazing!
[09:55] <CrackUhToeUh> pe6950: welcome to ubuntu :)
[09:55] <pe6950> yeah
[09:56] <pe6950> I have been using gentoo+fluxbox forever
[09:56] <pe6950> and I love it, but this is quite splendid as well
[09:56] <eexpress> 
[09:56] <budluva> genii:  nothing
[09:56] <CrackUhToeUh> indeed, however, I have a couple of issues with ubuntu
[09:56] <CrackUhToeUh> does it annoy anyone else that by default openoffice writer DOESNT center the document in the window
[09:56] <changinfaces> Flannel: i just re-read your msgs, when u say sneakernet stuff in with dpkg, do you mean manually insert newly downloaded .deb files for dpkg to manange?
[09:56] <genii> budluva Likely a bum hd then
[09:56] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh tried that before, no luck
[09:56] <Flannel> changinfaces: yeah, you could do that.
[09:57] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: which model dell
[09:57] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh not to mention that i'll have to reinstall 7,04 again
[09:57] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh I have an Inspiron 6400
[09:57] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: i would recommend reverting to 6.10
[09:57] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh I was totally unsuccessful in getting it working on 6.10
[09:58] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: jeez, wanna let me ssh?
[09:58] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh and was told that it would be easier to get working on feisty
[09:58] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: i'll be gentle :)
[09:58] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh I would be more than happy to let you ssh, you'll just have to teach me how
[09:58] <genii> budluva: Remove entirely the master/slave/cs jumper from the drive then repeat the power of/on fdisk -l /dev/sda   cycle
[09:59] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: you'd have to give me root access, and your ip
[09:59] <pewee> gaaah. ubuntu freezes after some time (if i'm not using vesa) - any suggestions? :/
[09:59] <ddonky> if i use the terminal to start a program, what command do use to 'release' the terminal so i can use it to launch other apps?
[09:59] <CrackUhToeUh> ddonky: in that situation I open another terminal
[09:59] <budluva> genii leave the jumper out?
[09:59] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh so I'll have to dmz my lappy?
[09:59] <genii> budluva: Tho you may want to power off THEN remove the jumper :)
[09:59] <CrackUhToeUh> linuxprobie: dmz?
[09:59] <genii> budluva Yes, entirely off
[10:00] <ddonky> yeah, me too, but oi remember there is a way to do it so i can resuse the term
[10:00] <LinuxProbie> CrackUhToeUh demilitarized zone. on my router

[10:01] <dromer> hi, how can I, when x-forwarding from a windows-box also forward sound?
[10:01] <genii> dromer: I don't think it's possible
[10:02] <dromer> :(
[10:02] <LinuxProbie> ack...
[10:02] <LinuxProbie> he left
[10:02] <LinuxProbie> :'(
[10:02] <k6rfm> dromer: X consortium tried for years to do a x sound forwarder, no success
[10:02] <docvegan> how do i figure out where  a program is located
[10:02] <dromer> too bad, would be a grat implementation if you ask me :)
[10:03] <ramenboy> Hello all
[10:03] <Coweater> docvegan: which
[10:04] <genii> dromer There might be some roundabout solution by piping all stdout sound to some redirect over internet. but it would be convoluted
[10:04] <docvegan> vlc
[10:04] <docvegan> the browser is asking me where to find the movie player
[10:04] <Coweater> no, which
[10:04] <docvegan> VLC
[10:04] <Coweater> yes, you use which to locate it
[10:05] <genii> budluva: Did it show up on fdisk after removing jumper(s) ?
[10:05] <docvegan> lol who's on first
[10:05] <budluva> genii no
[10:05] <docvegan> do i type "which" in the terminal
[10:05] <Coweater> yes
[10:05] <budluva> genii is there a usb log or something i can view to see what kind of error message im getting?
[10:05] <Coweater> although you might want to give it an argument too
[10:06] <genii> budluva: Try some other hard drive you know is good, is my immediate suggestion
[10:06] <budluva> k
[10:06] <genii> budluva Just in /var/log/messages
[10:06] <budluva> well ill just install the hdd into my box, should work, maybe enclosure isnt compatible with linux
[10:06] <genii> My bet is bad HD

[10:07] <budluva> brand new hdd, bought it with the enclosure today

[10:12] <jshadias> LinuxProbie: people don't respond when they don't know how to help with your problem
[10:13] <pawel> hallo

[10:14] <Carsten-> Hi guys, I have been mucking about trying to get my monitor working for 1440x900 I know what the frequencies are for my monitor, but now i am wondering do I need to add a modline to my xorg.conf?
[10:14] <k6rfm> genii: looks ok from here
[10:14] <Phineas> anyone had trouble complex screen savers freezing?
[10:14] <genii> On my end then :)
[10:14] <Trek^> if i want to run my windows application on ubuntu?what should i do?
[10:14] <ramenboy> What type of card is in an Inspiron?
[10:15] <arruah> hi all
[10:15] <Spliffster> !wine | Trek^
[10:15] <ddonky> hi
[10:15] <ubotu> Trek^: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[10:15] <genii> Trek^:  First try to find a native Ubuntu app that does whatever the old windows thing did. then install it :)
[10:15] <Trek^> for example,i want to run dreamweaver 8 on ubuntu?how to do it?
[10:15] <arruah> anybody from Kazakhstan ?
[10:15] <Carsten-> trek, try a native linux prog, nvu
[10:15] <Spliffster> Trek^: no way to run DW 8 in linux
[10:16] <Spliffster> Trek^: DW 4 or 5 in wine works tho
[10:16] <arruah> Trek^: use wine dreamweaver.exe
[10:16] <_filippo_> hi is it possible to disable gnome-screensaver password request?
[10:16] <Trek^> is wine and win4lin the same methods?
[10:16] <Spliffster> Carsten-: thee is no compareable linux application to DreamWeaver ... with all due respect to daniel glazmann's N|Vu ... it's not the same
[10:16] <genii> Spliffster Not true. Theres a howto here http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-dreamweaver-and-flash-8-running-on-ubuntu-dapper/
[10:17] <Spliffster> genii: oh thanx ... must be outdated my infos then ...
[10:17] <Spliffster> genii: winhq says no
[10:17] <Carsten-> i dont know, never tried it
[10:17] <Trek^> genii: thanks!
[10:18] <Trek^> genii: how about win4lin?
[10:18] <Trek^> if i install win4lin,can i run all my windows xp application?
[10:18] <genii> Trek^: To be honest I wouldn't ever even bother to run anything like that myself, so I'm not qualified to give reviews :)
[10:19] <Carsten-> If I have the frequencies for my monitor, its native resolution is 1440x900 what modline do I use in my xorg.conf file?
[10:19] <arruah> Trek^: vmware is good chjoce
[10:19] <Spliffster> yup
[10:19] <genii> I don't have the patience to try and wiggle nostalgic windoze stuff into my linux :)
[10:20] <Broady> felixhummel: I got into your wiki (grub)
[10:20] <VSpike> Trek^: VMWare works well for me... I need Visual Studio
[10:20] <Trek^> arruah: vmware in sourceforge?
[10:20] <arruah> Trek^: vmware.com
[10:20] <Trek^> arruah: vmware in sourceforge download site?
[10:21] <genii> Trek^: Yes, if you absolutely require some other OS under linux vmware is the best route
[10:21] <ramenboy> Trek^: vmware is a commercial app.
[10:21] <VSpike> Trek^: http://www.vmware.com/products/server/
[10:22] <VSpike> If you want open source you could try Xen, but I don't know much about it other than it has a rep for being hard to get working
[10:22] <genii> There are a couple others too
[10:22] <LinuxProbie> So, I am getting totally turned off to linux now because of this issue.
[10:22] <_filippo_> when i come back from suspend or hibernate gnomescreensaver asks me for the password even if lock is disabled in the settings.. is it possibile to disable it everywhere???
[10:22] <Spliffster> VSpike: xen also requires special hardware to run windows
[10:22] <ramenboy> Xen okay if you have the hardware or it.
[10:25] <genii> For a comprehensive VM list http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_virtual_machines
[10:25] <Trek^> what's the alternative of vmware?
[10:25] <Twiztr> Hey everyone
[10:25] <Spliffster> quemu + kquemu is pretty nice ... or virtualBox if you are looking for simple oss solutions to virtualisation
[10:25] <_filippo_> does anybody knows the answer to my problem???
[10:25] <bcochofel> Hi, how can I generate a menu for fluxbox? I'm using ubuntu 6.10
[10:25] <genii> Trek^: The wikipedia site has a lot of those kinds of answers for you
[10:25] <Spliffster> _filippo_: you need to install gconf2 ... it can only be turned off with a hidden pref
[10:25] <ramenboy> _filippo_: what's the question
[10:25] <ramenboy> ZZZ
[10:26] <_filippo_> Spliffster: is gconf2 different from feisty gconf???
[10:26] <genii> Well, time to go do some work :)
[10:26] <_filippo_> Spliffster: it there any other way to do it? editing gnome-screensaver source?
[10:26] <Spliffster> _filippo_: i don't run feisty, but i guess not
[10:27] <_filippo_> Spliffster: do you remember the name of the hidden option?
[10:27] <Spliffster> _filippo_: nope ... let me check
[10:28] <Trek^> genii:thanks!
[10:28] <_filippo_> Spliffster: tnx
[10:30] <Spliffster> _filippo_: nope, but when i was looking for a sloution it took me 15 seconds asking goole to get an answer :D
[10:31] <Spliffster> bcochofel: i have not been using fluxbox for a long time ... AFAIK you can use a tool from blackbox, called whitebox, to generate menues. or just edit the menu file manually (pretty confising these names, ey?)
[10:32] <_filippo_> Spliffster: stil googling..
[10:32] <Twiztr> Woo for EasyUbuntu
[10:35] <Spliffster> _filippo_: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Ubuntu_on_a_ThinkPad_T20#Getting_rid_of_the_password_upon_resuming
[10:36] <_filippo_> Spliffster: thanks!! let's take a look at this
[10:37] <_filippo_> Spliffster: thank you! it worked fine!
[10:38] <_filippo_> Spliffster: i didn't get it since i was concentrating my self on gnome-screensaver options and not on gnome-power-manager...
[10:40] <ChevronX> Hey guys, I just installed Fesity and allowed the REstricted ATI Drivers, but it is complaining about Composite Video- How do I fix this?
[10:40] <ChevronX> I want to run Beryl
[10:40] <Spliffster> _filippo_: yea it's a bit confusing
[10:40] <Spliffster> i have searched for "gnome resume password gconf"
[10:40] <ddonky> where are the icons located? i want to add a custom launcher for evolution, but i cnat find the icon
[10:40] <Spliffster> /usr/share/icons
[10:40] <Spliffster> ddonky: preferrably use the scalable icons over the png/xpm versions
[10:40] <ddonky> Spliffster - thanks
[10:42] <Ranarion> Hello everyone... does anyone here know how I can contact canonical for legal questions?
[10:43] <Spliffster> not sure but i'd triy it via their contct infos on the website : http://www.canonical.com/contact
[10:44] <Ranarion> well, there are several options listed, but only for job inquiries, PR stuff and so on... I've got a mail here from an annoying student portal website that IMHO ripped off Ubuntu's logo, and I wanted to give them a hint
[10:44] <Trentster> hey all, where would be the best place for me to place a startup script that mounts samba shares for me at boot time?
[10:46] <kestaz> how to share internet with ubuntu ?
[10:46] <kestaz> which gui tool to use ?
[10:46] <Spliffster> Ranarion: ingo@cannonical.com is a good start ... they can direct it to whomever is responsible.
[10:47] <Spliffster> *info@canonica.com
[10:47] <Ranarion> Spliffster: Thanks!
[10:47] <Spliffster> Ranarion: doh .. my spelling! info@canonical.com
[10:48] <Ranarion> Spliffster: I figured ;-)
[10:49] <Spliffster> Ranarion: what .. that i can't spell? you insensitive clod ;-)
[10:49] <carlxyz> #ubuntu-es
[10:49] <Dogun> btw, anyone running WOW under wine with alsa sounds?
[10:49] <Dogun> having some problems with sound buffering, being a little late or missing in total
[10:51] <Ranarion> lol... well, before I send out the mail, have a quick look at studi.net and tell me if you feel I overreact... but for me, that's Ubuntu's logo, bent a bit
[10:51] <Dogun> or on the otherhand have tips improving alsa performance with creative audigy cards
[10:52] <Spliffster> Ranarion: naja ... es ist hnlich ... aber ... huh ?
[10:52] <Carsten-> Hi Guys, I have a benq fp92w 19 inch wide screen monitor, I am looking for a modeline for it to fit in my xorg.conf, does anyone have any idea where I might find this?
[10:53] <Spliffster> Ranarion: i mean .. well .. it's not that it is the same logo .. its quiet different
[10:53] <kelee> hello
[10:53] <Spliffster> !hi
[10:53] <asfalt> hello, i tried to run the Upgrade using the gui tool from edgy to feisty, it downloaded all the packages but last 3 or sow which failed with 404 error messages :|
[10:53] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:53] <jetscreamer> !info hwinfo
[10:53] <ubotu> hwinfo: Hardware identification system. In component universe, is optional. Version 13.4-1 (edgy), package size 39 kB, installed size 104 kB
[10:54] <Spliffster> asfalt: try #ubuntu+1 for feisty questions
[10:54] <asfalt> oh thanks, i should have read the topic
[10:54] <Spliffster> :)
[10:55] <asfalt> i havent touched my ubuntu machine for ages :D and to be honest havent had time to catch up on the news, simply assumed feisty was an official release but i see it is Beta :)
[10:55] <Ranarion> Spliffster: ok, I'll sleep another night over it. (ich bleib mal Englisch, falls das jemand anderes hier auch verstehen will...)
[10:55] <Ranarion> bye!
[10:55] <Spliffster> cu
[10:56] <asfalt> in which case i think i solved my problem, i will just wait till it becomes official/non beta :)
[10:56] <Carsten-> Ok, forgive me, but how do i use hwinfo to create a modline for my monitor?
[10:56] <VSpike> How can I force remove of a package where the pre-uninstall script hangs?
[10:57] <asfalt> apt-get remove <package> fails?
[10:57] <vlt> Hello. What is the best way to install kqemu (now GPL'ed) on Dapper? Is there a deb/repo somewhere?
[10:58] <asfalt> vlt did you add "universe" and 3rd party repos?
[10:58] <vlt> asfalt: Yes. Is it available there?
[10:58] <asfalt> it "might" be in one of those, once you add those you can try with apt-cache search kqemu
[10:59] <asfalt> and see if anything comes up
[10:59] <VSpike> asfalt: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12730/
[10:59] <asfalt> or apt-cache search kqemu |more if it returns more then a page full
[10:59] <Carsten-> I am looking for a mode line for my 1440x900 monitor, is anyone able to help?
[10:59] <vlt> asfalt: I got universe and even multiverse in sources.list but no match for kqemu ...
[11:00] <sxc> does anyone know which wifi card works well with linux, without needing ndiswrapper?
[11:00] <VSpike> asfalt: before i force removed erlang-base and the other erlang packages, it would hang instead, at a point where it said "starting ejabberd daemon"
[11:00] <VSpike> asfalt: Why it wants to start it to remove it I'm not sure... maybe to do some cleaning up
[11:01] <asfalt> perhaps you need to re-instate the package which provides /usr/bin/erl then try removing this one then the one containing erl
[11:01] <asfalt> i am not familiar at all with these packages/software but i would try that, ie. placing the apps that the remove script for this one needs
[11:01] <VSpike> asfalt: doesn't help - the daemon won't start anyway.. erlang is broken in edgy
[11:01] <asfalt> oh i see, i have no idea then, sorry
[11:02] <VSpike> I'm sure with rpm there was an option like --no-scripts
[11:02] <VSpike> That's the kind of thing I need
[11:03] <VSpike> asfalt: the other possibility I haven't looked into is I think by modifying some compiler flags in the source I can build the erlang package so it will work
[11:03] <clouder`grr> How come when I type $ sudo apt-get remove totem-mozilla It tells me that ubuntu-desktop will be removed also?
[11:04] <VSpike> asfalt: But I've never used a source deb before.. or even know where to get one
[11:04] <VSpike> clouder`grr: because totem-mozilla is part of ubuntu-desktop
[11:05] <VSpike> clouder`grr: ubuntu-desktop is a virtual package - but it cant be "installed" unless all the items it provides are installed
[11:05] <Nitro-Wii> are there no drivers for nvidia on fiesty?
[11:05] <VSpike> clouder`grr: it won't actually remove any other packages that make up ubuntu-desktop
[11:05] <clouder`grr> oh ok
[11:06] <clouder`grr> It's just letting me know I'm removing a bit from a complete package?
[11:06] <VSpike> clouder`grr: the only pita is that aptitude will keep telling you that "the following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:" and then list about 3 score packages that are the rest of ubuntu-desktop
[11:07] <VSpike> clouder`grr: yep.. its because of the way the virtual packages work
[11:07] <clouder`grr> Alright, thanks
[11:07] <VSpike> clouder`grr: np
[11:08] <Muninn> Quick and easy question: What's the command line command for copy?

[11:11] <prasys> hey guys
[11:11] <Dogun> yo
[11:11] <prasys> I got a question - whats that fdisk command again to list all the partitions in a disk , as i would like to mount HFS+ Partition
[11:12] <robokop> prasys: p or print
[11:12] <prasys> is it fdisk -e ?
[11:12] <robokop> prasys: sorry tought parted
[11:12] <prasys> no , not parted
[11:12] <Slart> have you tried "man fdisk" or fdisk --help?
[11:12] <Steil> Hello I'm having problems with evolution...I have 2 mail accounts setup...but send/receive is greyed out (disabled).....any idea how to fix this?
[11:13] <dcordes> is there a file size limit in ext3?
[11:13] <prasys> Slart, uh...thanks for your help. But I was looking for the exact command to do that
[11:13] <prasys> if i remember right , it was something like fdisk -e
[11:13] <robokop> prasys: use -l
[11:13] <prasys> robokop, thanks again
[11:13] <prasys> phew
[11:13] <czajkoz> hi
[11:13] <Slart> prasys: according to fdisk --help it is "fdisk -l DISK"
[11:13] <jordo23_> is it possible to change a system's name (netbios) in Ubuntu?
[11:13] <Muninn> Ok, I have a problem setting Firefox as my default browser. Links keep opening in the terminal.
[11:13] <prasys> umm under osx its -e , weird
[11:14] <prasys> no wonder it did not work
[11:14] <dcordes> i was trying to unrar an 8gb file but got File size limit exceeded (core dumped)
[11:14] <dcordes> is it ext3 that causes the error or rather unrar?
[11:14] <Spliffster> dcordes: on what filesystem did you to untar ?
[11:14] <prasys> just double checking , is this command right. I've mkdir already
[11:14] <dcordes> Spliffster: ext3
[11:14] <Spliffster> oh sry
[11:14] <prasys> sudo mount -t hfsplus /dev/sdb1 /mnt/macosx
[11:15] <czajkoz> hove many ubuntu cds i have to download to have x windows kde
[11:15] <Slart> prasys: looks correct
[11:15] <Spliffster> dcordes: yes it is very possible that you hit an FS limit ... i would have to read about it
[11:15] <prasys> Slart, good. now let me see if it mounts
[11:15] <jhaig> czajkoz: Download kubuntu.
[11:15] <VSpike> czajkoz: Download kubuntu .. one CD
[11:15] <jhaig> czajkoz: 1 cd
[11:16] <czajkoz> why kubuntu
[11:16] <Openix> Muninn: system > preferences >preferered application
[11:16] <prasys> that worked . Now to auto-mount it
[11:16] <jhaig> czajkoz: That is the KDE version of ubuntu.
[11:16] <directhex|work> is there an ETA for Dapper 6.06.2?
[11:16] <dcordes> Spliffster: the limit for ext3 is 16gig
[11:16] <Muninn> Openix: Tried that. Doesn't work.
[11:16] <Carsten-> Hello again.
[11:16] <Muninn> Openix: Also tried getting Firefox to set itself as the default, and that doesn't work either.
[11:16] <jhaig> czajkoz: It is the same as ubuntu, but with KDE instead of Gnome.
[11:16] <prasys> hello CarinArr
[11:16] <prasys> hello Carsten-
[11:17] <czajkoz> i think kde is better
[11:17] <prasys> whoops , Carsten- . My bad , I hit the wrong button
[11:17] <dcordes> anybody else knows something about unrar large files?
[11:17] <Bubbelhund> Every sound I play hangs software. Amarok, movieplayer or Firefox playing flashmovie with sound hangs. But system plays sound when I log in. hmm...
[11:18] <Carsten-> I want to force X to use 1440x900@60Hz but I can not work out how, every option i have tried in xorg.conf has not worked its at 75hz right now I need 60, does anyone know the correct settings? Gnome will only present me with 75hz
[11:18] <exs> My hard drive is almost full. is there any tempory files I am able to remove to free up some space?
[11:18] <Carsten-> thats ok prasys
[11:18] <Slart> exs try "sudo apt-get autoremove"
[11:19] <Slart> exs: it removes some downloaded packages that you don't really need
[11:19] <robokop> exs: sudo apt-get clean will do something too perhaps
[11:19] <exs> thanks
[11:19] <prasys> /dev/sdb1  /media/osx hfsplus ro,nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0 [my fstab entry] 
[11:19] <Slart> exs: then have a look in /var/log/   those are logs.. you can remove lots in there
[11:19] <robokop> exs: clean removes config from removed packages
[11:19] <eternaljoy> does an yone here use Acronic true image?
[11:19] <prasys> I mean that will set as read-only mode right
[11:19] <Carsten-> is anyone able to answer my question?
[11:20] <Uxen> hi
[11:20] <prasys> CarinArr, shoot
[11:20] <dcordes> Spliffster: i extracted it to my fat32 partition
[11:20] <dcordes> :)
[11:20] <Uxen> can you tell me how to change the default kernel at start?
[11:20] <dcordes> i tried to rather
[11:20] <eternaljoy> Carsten-: what Q?
[11:20] <Carsten-> I want to force X to use 1440x900@60Hz but I can not work out how, every option i have tried in xorg.conf has not worked its at 75hz right now I need 60, does anyone know the correct settings? Gnome will only present me with 75hz
[11:20] <Carsten-> ive been trying to work this out all day
[11:21] <dcordes> Spliffster: how do i unrar to a different location?
[11:21] <robokop> Uxen: /boot/grub/menu.list and then something like default
[11:21] <VSpike> Carsten-:  .. what driver do you use
[11:21] <Carsten-> nvidia
[11:21] <Uxen> thx
[11:22] <eternaljoy> Carsten-:  ytu need tl edit xorg.conf
[11:22] <VSpike> Carsten-: proprietary or open?
[11:22] <Carsten-> thats what i have been doing
[11:22] <Carsten-> im using nvidia not nv
[11:22] <VSpike> Carsten-: Ah ok.. I have had the same problem
[11:22] <eternaljoy> Carsten-: u have edited xorg wrongly
[11:22] <VSpike> Carsten-: editing xorg will not help.. the driver does not use the modelines
[11:22] <Carsten-> ive tried every setting under the sun, X has not rejected any of it
[11:23] <eternaljoy> Carsten-: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic
[11:23] <VSpike> Carsten-: it builds its own dynamic mode list
[11:23] <eternaljoy> Carsten-: i hope you installed the linux-restricted-modules-generic by now. yes?
[11:23] <Carsten-> yes
[11:23] <VSpike> Carsten-: it does that by interrogating the monitor and the card
[11:23] <Spliffster> dcordes: tar -C /working/dir
[11:23] <directhex|work> Carsten-, in a  slightly less condescending manner, try adding Option "UseEDIDFreqs" "false"
[11:23] <Carsten-> I have a wide screen monitor tho
[11:23] <directhex|work> Carsten-, probe your monitor capabilities with "sudo hwinfo --monitor", specify the horizsync and vertrefresh
[11:24] <directhex|work> Carsten-, then build a modeline if need be
[11:24] <Carsten-> directhex|work what am i adding that to?
[11:24] <VSpike> Carsten-: it doesn't always do it right - it wouldn't drive mine at 1600x1200 @ 75Hz - was limiting me to 60
[11:24] <Carsten-> I have modelines in there already
[11:24] <directhex|work> Carsten-, section device
[11:24] <dumezil> join #gaim
[11:24] <Spliffster> dcordes: resp. $ cd /some/location && tar xzf /full/path/to.tar
[11:24] <VSpike> Carsten-: have you tried nvidia-settings ?
[11:24] <eternaljoy> Carsten-: i gave u the solution, but you too busy talking
[11:25] <directhex|work> Carsten-, horizsync and vertrefresh go in section monitor
[11:25] <eternaljoy> Carsten-:  get a grip!  you are too emotional, and not thinking clearly and logically.  settle down first
[11:25] <Carsten-> Vspike, I already have those packages
[11:25] <directhex|work> good lord, i'm reminded of why i avoid this channel
[11:25] <billy> Hey eteraljoy.  How're things?
[11:26] <VSpike> Carsten-: in my experience with the nvidia-driver its much better to use nvidia-settings than the KDE (or presumably Gnome) X control applet
[11:26] <billy> Anyone know what this error means:  "Routing Error
[11:26] <billy> no route found to match "/podcast/nm02132007a.mp3" with {:method=>:get}
[11:27] <VSpike> Carsten-: I mean run nvidia-settings from the console - you'll get an nVidia control panel GUI
[11:28] <Carsten-> nvidia-settings doesn't give me any options to change resolution / frequency
[11:28] <VSpike> Carsten-: it should do, under "X Server Display Configuration"
[11:29] <Carsten-> eternal-joy im not in an emotional mood, I am just trying to do what everyone here is suggesting just hard to keep up
[11:30] <Carsten-> it isn't giving me that option
[11:31] <eternaljoy> does typing fdisk -l change anything?
[11:34] <eternaljoy> how can I make a backup of my boot sectors and MBR only?
[11:36] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: with dd
[11:39] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: how can I backup just my bootsectors and MBR with dd ?
[11:40] <usuario5> ola
[11:41] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: dd if=/dev/hda of=file bs=512 count=1  saves mbr of /dev/hda to file
[11:41] <bezibaerchen> change "file" to suite ur needs
[11:42] <somewhat> is it a new thing having to install the sun-java5-plugin to get java in firefox?  normally just installing sun-java5-bin did the trick?
[11:42] <jo_> hello people
[11:42] <spikeb> i dont think it's all that new
[11:43] <DjViper> how to I quit gnome at startup?
[11:43] <DjViper> so it doesnt load
[11:43] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: thats so cool :)  and then how can I retore it if needed?
[11:45] <c_w> http://www.ubuntu.com/n
[11:45] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: change of and if
[11:45] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: dd if=/dev/hda of=file bs=512 count=1  <-- whats the name of the file and where does it get saved?
[11:45] <c_w> hy
[11:45] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: name it as u like
[11:45] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: change what and if to what?
[11:45] <detectiveinspekt> ubuntu froze and I don't know why
[11:45] <c_w> hy
[11:45] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen:  where do I place name?  dd if=/dev/hda of=file bs=512 count=1 nameoftile ??
[11:45] <eternaljoy> detectiveinspekt: :)
[11:45] <bezibaerchen> no
[11:46] <detectiveinspekt> wine acually causes me problems but I wasn't playing games
[11:46] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: man dd dude...
[11:46] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: pls be more helpful
[11:46] <detectiveinspekt> how do I find out why?
[11:46] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: you are veru un helpful atm
[11:46] <bezibaerchen> sry but u dont bring any own effort
[11:46] <bezibaerchen> u could e.g. use google urself
[11:46] <bezibaerchen> i was typing an example for you
[11:46] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: dont be so arrogant dude!  would take u 5secs to give me the full command needed
[11:46] <bezibaerchen> but as u seem to be quite offending, i really do hesite
[11:47] <bezibaerchen> hestitate even
[11:47] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: you are trolling
[11:47] <bezibaerchen> lol and now u call me arrogant?
[11:47] <bezibaerchen> it WAS the full command
[11:47] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: no it wasnt as its got no NAME for the file
[11:47] <bezibaerchen> think for a name
[11:48] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: if I want to name the file backup, where do I place that word?
[11:48] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen:  where do I place name?  dd if=/dev/hda of=file bs=512 count=1 backup ?
[11:48] <Carsten-> well its working at 60hz now lol but now my fonts looks sort of wierd
[11:48] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: why you being so difficult and unhelpful?
[11:49] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: dd if=/dev/hda of=backup bs=512 count=1 for saving (if u want to save /dev/hda), restore with: dd if=backup of=/dev/hda bs=512
[11:49] <bezibaerchen> call me unhelpful once again and you can see where to stay... sry, but the way u behave is just a farce
[11:50] <robokop> eternaljoy: if is input file en of is output file
[11:51] <robokop> eternaljoy: bezibaerchen is helping you greatly there but maybe he could be a bit more verbose on explaining what the different parameters mean
[11:51] <dibeas> I am having problems with security.ubuntu.com for a couple of days already. Is there a known problem? Is it a network problem on my side? (security.ubuntu.com is resolved to 91.189.88.31)
[11:52] <exs> is there a eggtimer?
[11:52] <bezibaerchen> robokop: i loose my will if someone who gets help addresses me like that. he wanted the final command, which he's got now. i don't see any errfort on UNDERSTANDING it, so i didn't even reflect to explain
[11:52] <Carsten-> what is the correct chmod command to allow anyone access to a file?
[11:53] <bezibaerchen> Carsten-: what kind of access? read, write? execute?
[11:53] <Spliffster> dibeas: it resolves to (82.211.81.138 for me and i can ftp to it
[11:53] <Carsten-> everything
[11:53] <bezibaerchen> Carsten-: then its 777
[11:53] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen:  ok ty cheers
[11:53] <Spliffster> dibeas: however an nslookup says 91.189.88.31 and 82.211.81.138
[11:54] <PaulDev> Carsten: here they've got a chmod calculator... http://www.worldnet.nl/helpdesk/hosting/chmod.htm
[11:54] <Spliffster> gues they are using round robin
[11:55] <Carsten-> thanks
[11:55] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen:  when I type that command it says: dd: opening `/dev/hda': No such file or directory
[11:55] <dibeas> thanks...
[11:55] <Spliffster> dibeas: maybe you could temp override it in your /etc/hosts
[11:56] <robokop> eternaljoy: are you sure your harddrive is /dev/hda
[11:56] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: well, what harddrive mbr do u want to backup?
[11:56] <eternaljoy> robokop: how can I make sure?
[11:56] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: I only have 1 hard drive, 120gig with 4 partitions
[11:56] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: type "mount" and paste the output to pastebin.com
[11:56] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ok brb
[11:57] <eternaljoy> !pastebin
[11:57] <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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:57] <Muninn> Ok, I have a problem setting Firefox as my default browser. Links keep opening in the terminal. Setting as default in "System > Preferences > Preferered application" does nothing.
[11:57] <Dimensions> Hiya what does this command doe PROMPT_COMMAND='pwd>&7;kill -STOP $$' ???
[11:57] <dibeas> now the big question, I have an up-to-date ubuntu edgy, and at one time during the update vmware stopped working. Symptoms are: /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2) shown on startup and then vmware process geets 100% of one processor and does nothing
[11:58] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12738/
[11:58] <eternaljoy> dibeas: ive seen bigger :)
[11:58] <exs> my gnome menu (at the bottm) has just crashed. how do I fix it?
[11:58] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: ok, then use "/dev/sda" instead of "/dev/hda"
[11:58] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: and save file "backup" :-)
[11:58] <robokop> exs: how do you mean crashed?
[11:59] <dibeas> I have tried with different kernels (including some older where I had it working before with the same results, and it seems some kind of problem with the libraries
[11:59] <exs> robokop:  it's frozen.
[11:59] <exs> oh and the top menu too now
[11:59] <Chai_Sangeen> hello everyone
[11:59] <exs> they don't function
[11:59] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ok :-)  so I type: dd if=/dev/sda of=backup bs=512 count=1 backup ?
[11:59] <robokop> exs: probably restarting x helps
[11:59] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: no
[12:00] <eternaljoy> +P
[12:00] <exs> im in the middle of work, i can't do that, i'll loose it
[12:00] <eternaljoy> :P
[12:00] <perlm> hi
[12:00] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: you type: dd if=/dev/sda of=backup bs=512 count=1
[12:00] <perlm> perlmach
[12:00] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ok got it :)
[12:00] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: leave "backup" at the end away
[12:00] <PaulDev> exs: sudo killall gnome-panel
[12:00] <xenoix> rawr
[12:00] <exs> PaulDev:  how do i launch the terminal ?
[12:00] <FidelCapslock> greetings! I have a problem with my usb external hd; It do not automount when I connect it. How can I manually connect it/or scan/probe for it,  from the cmd line? (it do not show on fdisk-l even as root)
[12:00] <DjViper> my entire gnome session hangs while loading
[12:01] <perlm> hi
[12:01] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: and to resore I type: dd if=backup of=/dev/sda bs=512 ?
[12:01] <perlm> i have a major problem :/
[12:01] <robokop> exs: <alt>-<f2>
[12:01] <exs> nevermind fixed it. i had my ctrl alt + delete
[12:01] <PaulDev> exs: press CTRL+ALT+F2
[12:01] <DjViper> exs ctrl-alt-f2
[12:01] <exs> thanks lol
[12:01] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: exactly, but you need to be in the directory, that contains file with name "backup"
[12:01] <Chai_Sangeen> whats the best way to clone my hdd ? i want to replace my current drive with a new one...
[12:01] <PaulDev> exs: but ctrl-alt-del reboots your machine doesn it
[12:01] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: so I type:  dd if=/dev/sda of=backup bs=512 count=1 backup ?
[12:02] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: you reading what im wrting?
[12:02] <Schalken> who has totem-xine running on feisty?
[12:02] <bezibaerchen> 29.03.07 [12:00:09]  < bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: you type: dd if=/dev/sda of=backup bs=512 count=1                                                            abasinisvaca~
[12:02] <DjViper> PaulDev: my entire gnome session hangs, I changed some panels around last night, now it wont start up
[12:02] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: so if needed, I use a liveCD and change into that directory and type: dd if=backup of=/dev/sda bs=512 ?  And this should place back my grub menu?
[12:02] <DjViper> PaulDev: how do I fix it?
[12:02] <robokop> Chai_Sangeen: dd if=<old hdd> of=<new hdd>
[12:02] <perlm> im gonna go ahead and wait, perhaps i'll raise my hand later :>
[12:03] <PaulDev> DJViper: tell me wats wrong now then..
[12:03] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: well, if you have left the file on harddrive it should, yes
[12:03] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: wHAT?  i type:  dd if=/dev/sda of=backup bs=512 count=1 abasinisvaca~  ?
[12:03] <DjViper> perlm: its like this all day...
[12:03] <Dimensions> eternaljoy:  you dont need to type bs just type sudo dcfldd if=/dev/hda(this is source) of=/dev/sda(this is target) and instead of dd use dcfldd which is latest and faster also tells you how much data has transferred
[12:03] <DjViper> PaulDev: I dont know
[12:03] <perlm> DjViper: figures :S
[12:03] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: leave out abasinisvacant, was an error with c&p
[12:03] <perlm> DjViper: i have a rather weird+interesting problem though
[12:03] <Chai_Sangeen> robokop, this is also means that both hdd's must be plugged in?
[12:03] <eternaljoy> !dcfldd
[12:04] <ubotu> dcfldd: enhanced version of dd for forensics and security. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.4-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 35 kB, installed size 124 kB
[12:04] <Muninn> Ok, I have a problem setting Firefox as my default browser. Links keep opening in the terminal. Setting as default in "System > Preferences > Preferered application" does nothing.
[12:04] <PaulDev> DjViper: you can restart your panel by: sudo killall gnome-panel
[12:04] <robokop> Chai_Sangeen: yes
[12:04] <DjViper> perlm: okay, you should probably just ask it here, you might have to do it a few times, but dont spam
[12:04] <Chai_Sangeen> robokop, many thanks
[12:04] <PaulDev> DjViper: and then start it again by running: gnome-panel
[12:04] <Peppery> I need some general, http protocol help. Can someone answer a quick question or point me to a chan where they could?
[12:04] <DjViper> PaulDev: yes, but that wont fix it
[12:04] <eternaljoy> Dimensions: so to backup my MBR I type: dcfldd if=/dev/sda of=backup bs=512 count=1  ?
[12:04] <Schalken> Muninn: maybe go into firefox preferences > advanced and make it check if it is the default browser?
[12:04] <perlm> DjViper: hehe yeah, didn't get much sleep last night, i was busy raping the forums @ ubuntuforums.org
[12:04] <davf> Is fiesty worth upgrading from edgy?
[12:05] <Dimensions> eternaljoy:  u dont need bs and count ... its optional
[12:05] <Muninn> Schalken: Also does nothing.
[12:05] <PaulDev> DjViper: or reconfigure (losing al changes) sudo dpkg -reconfigure gnome-panel
[12:05] <robokop> Chai_Sangeen: maybe this one is only mbr so all partitions should be done too i suppose but not sure
[12:05] <bezibaerchen> Dimensions: he DOES need it, if he only wants to backup the mbr
[12:05] <DjViper> PaulDev: hmm that might work, what will I loose?
[12:05] <PaulDev> DjViper: All setting of the panel
[12:05] <Dimensions> for Only backing up MBR he Does ...
[12:05] <Dimensions> but in general its optional ...
[12:06] <eternaljoy> Dimensions: sorry im confused :(  so what is all I need to type then?  dcfldd if=/dev/sda of=backup ? And this will backup my enttire MBR and boot sectors?
[12:06] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ok thanks
[12:06] <bezibaerchen> Dimensions: but he WANTS only to backup his mbr.... pls dont confuse him
[12:06] <FidelCapslock> how do I probe/scan for devices connected to the usb port? The device does not auto mount
[12:06] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen:  ty for your help. I got it now. sorry about before.
[12:06] <DjViper> PaulDev: does that include xorg.conf changes?
[12:06] <DjViper> Im a newb...
[12:06] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: skipped, its okay :-)=
[12:06] <Dimensions> sorry eternaljoy just follow what bezibaerchen is telling you .. just use dcfldd instead of dd and follow the command he told you ...
[12:06] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen:  :-)
[12:07] <eternaljoy> Dimensions: ok!  i used: dcfldd if=/dev/sda of=backup bs=512 count=1
[12:07] <Steil> evolution won't let me send/receive mail...the buttons greyed out even though I have email accounts setup.....any ideas?
[12:07] <perlm> Q: I was configuring my machine with apache2+mysql+postfix+courier+squirrelmail when some of my programs started to crash randomly(firefox,vlc,term etc). At last I freaked and did a clean install(edgy), but the applications still hangs and crashes(exits). I have checked the forums and the logs(they just gave som error about the fonts, which i fixed). Thanks in advance!
[12:07] <PaulDev> DjViper: no only the panel (menubars) so the changes you made to your menu's and applets etc.
[12:08] <Chai_Sangeen> robokop, hmmm... so i have to dd for e.g. hdc , hdc1, hdc2, hdc5 ?
[12:08] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: so I can use dcfldd if=/dev/sda of=backup bs=512 count=1 and then to restore: dcfldd if=backup of=/dev/sda bs=512   Is that finally right now? :)
[12:08] <sogen> can anyone sey me why when i run gaim it quit after one sec ?
[12:08] <davf> Does anyone know how to get a Sony Vaio motioneye to work with ub?
[12:08] <robokop> Chai_Sangeen: first try hdc alone, if it is not everything then yes
[12:09] <CarinArr> when partitioning my harddrive, when should i choose primary partition and when should i choose logical?
[12:09] <Chai_Sangeen> robokop, ill try that later and report back
[12:09] <perlm> ahh.. :/
[12:09] <davf> Does anyone know how to get a Sony Vaio motioneye to work with ub?
[12:10] <Tarhabi> Yoo
[12:10] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: to be honest, i dont know why Dimensions insists on using dcfldd, i dont know if it works like dd. if you keep the file in place, u can do it with "dd" instead of "dcfldd", Dimensions seems "to know better", so follow him. i told you, what i know and most important: what i know, that it works that way
[12:10] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ill use dd.  thanks
[12:10] <Tarhabi> is there somone who nows how a psp can be downgraded
[12:10] <DjViper> PaulDev: -reconfigure, is that the correct option?
[12:10] <perlm> davf: have you checked www.ubuntuforums.org?
[12:10] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: as i said: u need the file "backup" to restore it again
[12:10] <robokop> CarinArr: you may only have 4 primary partitions, and some old bios types need to boot from primary but further primary is as good as logical
[12:10] <davf> perlm: yes. Nothing there
[12:11] <perlm> davf: they seem to have some threads about it
[12:11] <Tarhabi> can sombody help ,e
[12:11] <Tarhabi> me
[12:11] <davf> perlm... didn't see that b4. I'll look now.
[12:11] <CarinArr> robokop: so if i have <= 4 i can just stick with primary?
[12:12] <Dimensions> bezibaerchen:  sorry for getting into you guys conversation but ... the reason i asked to use dcfldd is ...because its latest version of dd ... its not something different but its faster and the good thing is it also tells you how much data is transferred ... while dd doesn't tell any thing unless its done in large cloning /backups that can take many many hours to days even ...
[12:12] <perlm> davf: http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca5xx.html
[12:12] <perlm> that may be helpful

[12:19] <Tarhabi> what must i do to downgrade is
[12:19] <Drac|BComp> Heh. I've always used shutdown -R now to shut down the machine, but this just throws it into 'maintenance mode', after which I need to do it again to actually turn the thing off. Is there a root console command that can do this in one shot, so to speak?
[12:19] <Tarhabi> it
[12:19] <mosi|work> slightly wrong channel for that :P
[12:19] <liujun> dfdf
[12:19] <k-edgy> hello
[12:19] <PaulDev> Tarhabi: check http://dl.qj.net and not this channel
[12:19] <k-edgy> a question with cairo dock
[12:20] <Drac|BComp> So yeah, how do I shut the machine down in just one command? I need to set up a cron thing so my little brother doesn't stay up all night playing games.
[12:20] <andreig> Hi, I can't seem to be able to use my Synaptics touchpad, is this a common issue? It worked few days ago (before an upgrade, playing with the TVOUT and an USB Joystick, not sure what caused the issue).
[12:20] <Drac|BComp> And when I say "always" I mean that I usually do that if I need to shut down from console.
[12:21] <k-edgy> how do i put cairo at the top from its default bottom position?
[12:21] <liujun>  
[12:21] <ratzefax> hi, i need to boot into a runlevel without x. grub has only one entry wih x enabled. what key do i have to press at boot time to edit boot options?
[12:22] <sarah> hi, which package would i need to install to get the "debian" submenu added to the standard gnome-menu?
[12:23] <Broady> Someone, please help me with GRUB!
[12:23] <ikonia_> whats the problem Broady
[12:23] <liujun> what??
[12:23] <Broady> ikonia_: I had windows installed on HDD #1, HDD #2 is data. HDD #3 has ubuntu
[12:23] <Broady> I can't boot into windows.
[12:24] <andreig> Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:24] <Dimensions> Broady:  do u have option to boot into windows ?
[12:24] <liujun> yes
[12:24] <Broady> Dimensions: no
[12:24] <Broady> andreig: doing that ATM, but not quite sure what to do.
[12:24] <Dimensions> well do as andreig asked you
[12:24] <ikonia_> !grub >Broady the pm from ubotu will explain how to configure grub
[12:24] <andreig> Broady, you have a sample boot option for Windows at the top of the file. Or somewhere around :)
[12:24] <Broady> It reckons linux is hd0,0 but shouldn't it be on 3,0 ?
[12:24] <ikonia_> Broady no
[12:25] <ikonia_> !grub >Broady the pm from ubotu will explain how to configure grub
[12:25] <amayera> hi
[12:25] <Broady> ikonia_: thanks, I needed a thread like that.
[12:25] <k-edgy> how do i put cairo-dock at the top, from its default bottom position?
[12:25] <amayera> does anybody know what I need /proc/kcore for?
[12:25] <andreig> ppl, help me out with the Synaptics :)
[12:25] <amayera> it uses nearly 1 GB
[12:26] <ikonia_> amayera of ram ?
[12:26] <eternaljoy> Dimensions: why is it better than dd?
[12:26] <Broady> ikonia_: that addresses Grub lost after installing windows -- i'm the opposite.
[12:26] <amayera> ikonia_: now of hdd-place.
[12:26] <PaulDev> sarah: i thougth it was the packet menu (sudo apt-get install menu)
[12:26] <amayera> that is 1/5 of my total space in my /-partition
[12:26] <ikonia_> amayera /proc is not real file system
[12:26] <nox-Hand> Lets hypothesise that I have installed Ubuntu on hda2, then ditched that, installed on hd3 and then deleted hda3. How I have a grub that opints to a /boot on hda3 which is non existant. How would I install the grub to work on hda2 instead? I am on liveCD and have chrooted to /mnt/root which is my hda2
[12:27] <amayera> ikonia_: but it gets its space from /?
[12:27] <ikonia_> amayera /proc/kcore is a kernel representation of your system ram
[12:27] <andreig> # root          (hd0,0)
[12:27] <andreig> # makeactive
[12:27] <andreig> # chainloader   +1
[12:27] <mosi|work> anyone here managed to get an n80 to sync with evolution using multisync and bluetooth?
[12:28] <ikonia_> amayera no - it doesn't get any space from / 1.) proc is seperatly mounted b.) proc is not a real file system but a kernel interface
[12:28] <amayera> ikonia_: so I guess it is used for suspend to ram?`
[12:28] <Broady> oh shit.
[12:28] <mosi|work> deb http://www.in.fh-merseburg.de/~jahn/ dapper main
[12:28] <mosi|work> deb-src http://www.in.fh-merseburg.de/~jahn/ dapper main
[12:28] <ikonia_> amayera no
[12:28] <Broady> i overwrote my windows drive
[12:28] <Broady> wtf.
[12:28] <mosi|work> onnection failed
[12:28] <Broady> oh shit
[12:28] <ikonia_> Broady watch the language !
[12:28] <Johbe> amayera: don't bother with /proc it has nothing to do with real space usage
[12:28] <mosi|work> argh i didnt click anything to paste that >_<
[12:28] <amayera> ikonia_: df -h does not show me a seperately mounted /proc
[12:29] <ikonia_> amayera because its not a real file system
[12:29] <ratzefax> is there a way to make my computer boot without x while booting?
[12:29] <ikonia_> amayera df only shows file systems
[12:29] <Johbe> amayera: type mount
[12:29] <Johbe> proc on /proc type proc (rw)
[12:29] <ikonia_> ratzefax change the init level to a run level without X
[12:29] <mkquist> hey folks - anyone know how to change the default folder icons?
[12:29] <ratzefax> ikonia: it hangs when x starts. first i need to boot it without x...
[12:30] <ikonia_> ratzefax use safe/recovery mode from the boot menu
[12:30] <ratzefax> ikonia: i have no boot menu
[12:30] <ikonia_> ratzefax you don't boot into grub ?
[12:30] <amayera> Johbe, ikonia_: thanks. I need to find something else that fills up my / and can be deleted then. because my 4.5 GB of space in / are nearly full.
[12:30] <Dimensions> eternaljoy:  i have already explained that ...
[12:31] <ikonia_> amayera 4.5 of space for the whole box could be eaten up quite quickely, check your home dir and /var/archive
[12:31] <ratzefax> ikonia: i think i boot into grub, but it does not display anything, because there is only one entry.
[12:31] <andreig> ikonia_, may I get some help with the Synaptics driver?
[12:31] <mkquist> amayera - do you have a second drive?
[12:31] <andreig> Hi, I can't seem to be able to use my Synaptics touchpad, is this a common issue? It worked few days ago (before an upgrade, playing with the TVOUT and an USB Joystick, not sure what caused the issue).
[12:31] <amayera> ikonia_: /var is a different partition and /tmp is one and /home is one.
[12:32] <amayera> ikonia_: / only contains bin, lib, usr and things.
[12:32] <eternaljoy> Dimensions: accordin to this website: http://www.pixelbeat.org/docs/disk/ the next 32KB after the first 512bytes need to also be backed up!  true?
[12:34] <Schalken> does anyone have totem-xine on feisty?
[12:34] <amayera> maybe I should look for no longer needed apps.
[12:34] <mkquist> amayera - are u stuck w/only the 4.5 gig?
[12:35] <eternaljoy> Dimensions: your thouhts?
[12:35] <amayera> mkquist: well I have enough space in /home, /var and /tmp as they are different partitions, but feisty wants to install a new kernel and there is not enough space for that.
[12:36] <Broady> ok fellas, now that i've realised i don't actually have windows at all anymore hence grub is not a problem - how do i recover formatted data off this partition?
[12:36] <dromer> ok, I'm installing/configing mpd using this howto: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31763  but when I try the $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure mpd nothing happens
[12:37] <Stormx2> dromer: I just installed from source?
[12:37] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: no, u dont need to inculde, as it only is 512 bytes large
[12:37] <Stormx2> dromer: I think thats just for editting config right? gksudo gedit /etc/mpd.conf
[12:37] <dromer> Stormx2: no, I installed using apt
[12:37] <dromer> ok
[12:37] <Stormx2> Hey Seveas
[12:37] <mkquist> ic - i'm running a 3.5 gig, just installed /boot and grub on it, the rest went to a larger drive to avoid that
[12:38] <perlm> Q: I was configuring my machine with apache2+mysql+postfix+courier+squirrelmail when some of my programs started to crash randomly(firefox,vlc,term etc). At last I freaked and did a clean install(edgy), but the applications still hangs and crashes(exits). I have checked the forums and the logs(they just gave som error about the fonts, which i fixed).

[12:38] <dromer> Stormx2: I have no idea what I need to change to make it work
[12:39] <Stormx2> What isn't working?
[12:39] <Stormx2> dromer: Do you want me to give you my conf file?
[12:39] <dromer> er, sure, is it basically default-stuff ?
[12:39] <assassint> hi every body
[12:40] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ok!  i just read a websire where it talks about the next 32k
[12:40] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: http://www.pixelbeat.org/docs/disk/
[12:41] <assassint> 
[12:41] <assassint> 
[12:41] <assassint> 
[12:41] <assassint> 
[12:41] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: mbr is 512, as it is said on the page
[12:41] <assassint> 
[12:41] <Stormx2> dromer: Yeah. Basically just set up your music directory at the top and enable alsa
[12:41] <assassint> wich one
[12:42] <Stormx2> assassint: Eh?
[12:42] <dromer> Stormx2: oh ok
[12:42] <elkbuntu> assassint, behave please
[12:42] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: yes i re-read it
[12:42] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: if u need more, look at the page where u wanna go and change bs-value
[12:42] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ty so much. i learned so much today
[12:42] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ok cheers
[12:42] <bezibaerchen> pnp
[12:42] <assassint> ok man
[12:42] <dromer> Stormx2: the howto explains making symlinks in the music-folder
[12:43] <Stormx2> dromer: Yeah I tried that. I found it unnecessary though
[12:43] <Stormx2> dromer: Mine just points to "/media/Music" (my music directory)
[12:43] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: the other thing I learned today was that Grub only points to /boot/grub/menu.lst.  Before today I thought its all stored in the MBR :P
[12:43] <dromer> ok, I have multiple music dirs :$ (I really a new hd and better partition-layout)
[12:44] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: kinda hard to fit that into 512 byte, isnt it? ;-)
[12:44] <Stormx2> dromer: Then symlinking would be the best way of going about it.
[12:44] <Stormx2> dromer: Create ~/music, then symlink all your other music directories into there, and point MPD to ~/music
[12:44] <daya> Dailup Modem , site ?
[12:44] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: well, not in the mind of a newbie who is ignorant and still learning ;)
[12:45] <PaulDev> he guy's how to add a shortcut key combination to an app???
[12:45] <dromer> ok :) how do I enable alsa? just uncomment that part of the config?  also, how can I use mpd over ssh? (from windows-machine etc)
[12:45] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: its only kinda hard to fit that into 512 byte for someone with an experienced and educated mind-set when it comes to these things ;-)
[12:45] <bezibaerchen> eternaljoy: keep the "still learning" but try to skip that ignorance-stuff :-)
[12:45] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: lol :)
[12:45] <Stormx2> dromer: Not ssh. MPD is just a server. You can run mpd on your ubuntu box and connect to it via a media player on windows
[12:46] <Stormx2> But yeah, I guess you could run the "mpd" command via ssh if you really wanted to >.<
[12:46] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: ignorance always precedes awareness ;)
[12:46] <eternaljoy> bezibaerchen: I did an hex dump  of the MBR, vey intersting indeed :)  i typed: dd bs=512 count=1 if=/dev/hda | od -Ax -tx1z -v
[12:47] <dromer> Stormx2: can't I use mpc over ssh? I'm not sure, I thought it worked that way too
[12:47] <Stormx2> Wait
[12:47] <Stormx2> mpc ?
[12:47] <Stormx2> Yeah you could
[12:47] <dromer> the console client
[12:48] <Stormx2> Are you just setting it up as a music box then?
[12:48] <Stormx2> There are plenty of nice mpd clients for ubuntu...
[12:48] <PaulDev> Never mind, found it:
[12:48] <dromer> er, I guess
[12:48] <PaulDev>    1. Open "gconf-editor" as the user as you're logged in in GNOME
[12:48] <PaulDev>    2. Go to "apps" -> "metacity" -> "keybinding_commands"
[12:48] <PaulDev>    3. Double click on e.g. "command_1"
[12:48] <PaulDev>    4. Type in the name of the application you want to launch, e.g. "gcalctool", the GNOME calculator
[12:48] <PaulDev>    5. Go to "apps" -> "metacity" -> "global_keybindings"
[12:48] <PaulDev>    6. Double click on e.g. "run_command_1"
[12:48] <PaulDev>    7. Type in e.g. <Control><Alt>c
[12:48] <PaulDev>    8. Note the < and > for the special function keys
[12:48] <Stormx2> Don't paste.
[12:48] <dromer> Stormx2: no I want to access/listen my music over ssh
[12:48] <PaulDev>    9. DONE! Close the gconf-editor and press CTRL-ALT-c and the calculator should come up

[12:53] <dromer> Stormx2: hmm, no I don't want that
[12:53] <sarah> PaulDev: i thought so too, but it wasn't.
[12:53] <VirhYl3> So who hates me now?
[12:55] <VirhYl3> A bunch of people!  See!  I knew it!
[12:55] <wInd> =)
[12:55] <wInd> hi
[12:56] <VSpike> When I use apt-get source, where does the source get stored?
[12:56] <VirhYl3> Feisty just updated, and everything is running much faster now.
[12:56] <VirhYl3> I wonder which update it was?
[12:57] <IdleOne> try asking in #ubuntu+1
[12:57] <wInd> I had some broken dependencies yesterday in the update of feisty amd64
[12:57] <stutter> hi
[12:57] <wInd> with the nv drivers ^^
[12:57] <VirhYl3> i'm not using the amd64, I wanted to, but there's too much that won't work in it. :(
[12:58] <wInd> everything works on mine
[12:58] <wInd> or almost
[12:58] <stutter> i just installed ubuntu 6.10 and i wanna make 3d work with my k8m800 unichrome video in my laptop, can anyone point me to the right direction?
[12:58] <ChevronX> Hello I just tried to install ati-driver-installer-8.14.13; and am getting this error: loki_setup: directory: (null)
[12:58] <ChevronX> Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install
[12:58] <wInd> it is a lot of disinformation to say that a lot of things don"t
[12:59] <stutter> i just installed ubuntu 6.10 and i wanna make 3d work with my k8m800 unichrome video in my laptop, can anyone point me to the right direction?
[12:59] <wInd> (sorry)
[12:59] <ChevronX> lol
[01:00] <ChevronX> Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install
[01:00] <ChevronX> Hello I just tried to install ati-driver-installer-8.14.13; and am getting this error: loki_setup: directory: (null)
[01:00] <ChevronX> Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install
[01:00] <stutter> ok actually, i found this page that gives instructions on how to install the drivers using SVN but I get the error 400 bad request...what does this mean?
[01:00] <VirhYl3> wind: sorry... I just had problems with the amd64 builds and comapat with diff stuff.
[01:00] <VirhYl3> the i386 is workin' fantastic though!
[01:00] <ChevronX> stutter: The webpage is unavaliable - Try using Google cache
[01:01] <wInd> yes it's true that sometimes for the same thing, I needed more time and work to get it to work on amd64
[01:01] <stutter> ChevronX:  I checked it.  The command is "svn checkout http://svn.openchrome.org/svn/trunk openchrome" i checked the url, it's there...
[01:01] <wInd> just now I can't get squeak to compile and run on my feisty amd64
[01:01] <VirhYl3> I bet it's faster...
[01:02] <VirhYl3> but then i look at my current setup, and realize.... not much to be jealous about... :P
[01:02] <wInd> =)
[01:02] <robokop> how can i set my sshd to send terminal colors to the client?
[01:02] <Steve^> How can I set a domain to act like localhost?
[01:07] <stutter> ok actually, i found this page that gives instructions on how to install the drivers using SVN but I get the error 400 bad request...what does this mean?
[01:09] <kalin> is there some way i could set up my consoles to autologout idle root terminal sessions after some time interval?
[01:11] <stutter> i just installed ubuntu 6.10 and i wanna make 3d work with my k8m800 unichrome video in my laptop, can anyone point me to the right direction?
[01:11] <john> Hello. I am running Feisty, and i would like to report a bug again "Disk Usage Analyzer" aka baobab. Launchpad doesn't allow me to report said bug on the gnome-utils section. So where can i do that?

[01:15] <VirhYl3> Hi, is there a volume normalization plugin for Rhythmbox?
[01:16] <ChEeko> Arkaitz Chk Ur Private MSg n Read The Grub info on web.
[01:16] <_bachus_> sonsnix: instead of giving dev=0,1,1 whatever try putting the path to your drive, eg. dev=/dev/hdd
[01:16] <VirhYl3> I keep feeling like rhythmbox is not the best mp3 player for Ubuntu.
[01:16] <VirhYl3> like there must be something better out there.
[01:16] <sonsnix> _bachus_, i check it out
[01:16] <stutter> why am i getting this error:  svn: REPORT request failed on '/svn/!svn/vcc/default'
[01:16] <ChEeko> VirhYl3: use xmms player fro mp3.
[01:16] <zakaria> hi everybody

[01:17] <zakaria> *Can i need help. It's about webcam
[01:17] <VirhYl3> what about one of the xmms2 front ends?
[01:17] <zakaria> i cannot launch it
[01:17] <VirhYl3> not as good?
[01:17] <ChEeko> Arkaitz: ubotu msg you chk ur pvt.
[01:17] <kane77> is it OK to burn a ,iso (cd) to a dvd?
[01:17] <zakaria> how can i dot under Amsn?
[01:17] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: they're still pretty lame
[01:17] <Arkaitz> !grub > Arkaitz
[01:17] <ChEeko> VirhYl3: i m using it.. its gud. just xmms
[01:18] <VirhYl3> Ok...
[01:18] <_bachus_> kane77: no problem with that
[01:18] <sonsnix> _bachus_, thank you very much, it works that way, is there anyway i can tell k3b etc. to do the same?
[01:18] <kane77> _bachus_, great.. I ran out of cd's :D
[01:18] <_bachus_> sonsnix: dunno, check out that k3bsetup program!
[01:19] <_bachus_> sonsnix: or the preferences in k3b
[01:19] <sonsnix> _bachus_, i'will, but during the write process i got this error: http://rafb.net/p/j7rs2M47.html
[01:20] <ucordes> how can i umount my fat32 partition when there are no open files and no open bash on it and umount says device busy? --force doesn't work either?
[01:21] <VirhYl3> what's a good WYSIWYG html editor for ubuntu?  I was using NVU on winXP.
[01:21] <ChEeko> !upgrade
[01:21] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:21] <_bachus_> sonsnix: you either have the wrong path specified for your drive. use konqueror to see which path it is. or it might be that your iso image is corrupt
[01:21] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: nvu
[01:21] <_bachus_> :)
[01:21] <VirhYl3> there's no better one?
[01:21] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: it's the best one so far
[01:22] <sonsnix> _bachus_, i used wodim --devices
[01:22] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: i also use Dreamweaver 4 emulated under wine, works very good
[01:22] <kane77> VirhYl3, I wouldnt suggest using WYSIWYG thou
[01:23] <_bachus_> sonsnix: open a query to my nick and paste what wodim --devices said!
[01:23] <bronze_0_1> Good morning folks.  Can anyone tell me what the "gam_server" process does?
[01:23] <VirhYl3> I want a clean all FOSS system.  Except for codecs and drivers :P
[01:23] <spikeb> heh
[01:23] <bronze_0_1> hee hee
[01:23] <VirhYl3> NVU isn't in synaptic, and I haven't mastered another form of software installation for Ubuntu yet.
[01:23] <spikeb> ffmpeg can play almost anything now, so soon it'll just be drivers
[01:24] <VirhYl3> true that.
[01:24] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: go to the nvu site, there should be instructions on how to add their repository
[01:24] <spikeb> wow, it really isn't.
[01:24] <VirhYl3> bachus: thanks, i'll try that.
[01:24] <_bachus_> good girl/boy/whatever :)
[01:25] <ChEeko> :/
[01:25] <VirhYl3> ew.... essence of RMS...
[01:25] <bersace> Hi all, i would like to rename a product, how to ?
[01:25] <VirhYl3> MAN.
[01:25] <VirhYl3> :P
[01:25] <bersace> Also, i would like to add a trunk vcs branch, but i didn't find how
[01:25] <bersace> the product is gnome-scan http://launchpad.net/product/gnomescan
[01:26] <bersace> well, https://launchpad.net/gnomescan
[01:27] <VirhYl3> i think rhythmbox sounds better than xmms.
[01:27] <VirhYl3> does that make me a crazy person?
[01:27] <_bachus_> no, but a person who judges things by the cover ...
[01:28] <_bachus_> rhythmbox is soooooooo lame
[01:31] <ChEeko> _bachus_ any idea of Utorrent Software?
[01:31] <perlm> Q: I was configuring my machine with apache2+mysql+postfix+courier+squirrelmail when some of my programs started to crash randomly(firefox,vlc,term etc). At last I freaked and did a clean install(edgy), but the applications still hangs and crashes(exits). I have checked the forums and the logs(they just gave som error about the fonts, which i fixed). Thanks in advance!
[01:31] <ChEeko> rambo3: welcome dude.
[01:32] <VirhYl3> how do I install a .bz2?
[01:32] <arne_> can anyone tell me what is wrong if I don't have a inittab in my /etc/ ?
[01:32] <Muninn> I have a problem setting Firefox as my default browser. Links keep opening in the terminal. Setting as default in "System > Preferences > Preferered application" does nothing, nor does getting FF to set itself as default.
[01:32] <rambo3> VirhYl3, you dont
[01:32] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: bz2 is an archive, like zip, it's not installed
[01:32] <_bachus_> rather extracted
[01:32] <VirhYl3> Yeah, I know, but can't synaptic just open it or something?
[01:33] <rambo3> VirhYl3, whats the program you are trying to install
[01:33] <VirhYl3> For instance: Mupen64, or NVU.
[01:33] <VirhYl3> :)
[01:33] <IdleOne> VirhYl3, right click the file and extract it
[01:33] <rambo3> !info nvu edgy
[01:33] <VirhYl3> They are both debian packages... so Ubuntu possible, yeah?
[01:33] <ubotu> nvu: Complete Web Authoring System. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0final-2ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 8373 kB, installed size 26448 kB
[01:33] <ChEeko> rambo3: want to ask. can i install edgy in 550 mghz. with 128 mb ram?
[01:34] <VirhYl3> heh, I did a search in synaptic, I have all the repos turned on.
[01:34] <IdleOne> ChEeko, yes
[01:34] <VirhYl3> chEeko: probably better off with xubuntu.
[01:35] <_bachus_> ChEeko: use xubuntu. otherwise consider adding some RAM
[01:35] <rambo3> ChEeko, maby fluxbuntu . i am running smoothly ubuntu feisty on 800 Mh P3 and 192 Mhz Ram
[01:35] <VirhYl3> yeah, i was right for once!
[01:35] <ChEeko> IdleOne: i tried it. but Getting GNOME problem.. i download edgy from web and burn it in cd.. then i check the media.. there is no checksum failed. but when i try to install it computers get stuck alot. and .. when i m on desktop i get the GNOME Error.
[01:36] <ChEeko> rambo3: well In my laptop all thing working fine.. in my laptop i have dapper-drake. RHeL4. Vista. .. just want to install edgy in PC . another machine.

[01:36] <ChEeko> whats that ?
[01:37] <ChEeko> for old Machines?
[01:37] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: the thing you downloaded is a compressed archive. you have to extract it first
[01:37] <robokop> ChEeko: yes for old machines
[01:37] <VirhYl3> _bachus_: OK, done.  now what?
[01:37] <rambo3> VirhYl3, whats wrong with programs in synaptic or backports ?
[01:37] <VirhYl3> there wasn't one!
[01:37] <VirhYl3> no mupen, no nvu.

[01:38] <ubotu> VirhYl3: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[01:38] <_bachus_> to do that, run: tar jxvf archive.tar.bz2
[01:38] <VirhYl3> I have those enabled.
[01:38] <niru> How does ubuntu use the tasksel
[01:38] <niru> I mean d-i
[01:38] <niru> Do ubuntu use preseed file
[01:38] <_bachus_> then just sudo dpkg -i nvu-whatever-name.deb
[01:38] <niru> Is there any link to get the method that ubuntu follows to come up with ubuntu cd
[01:39] <VirhYl3> the name of the directory?
[01:39] <ChEeko> well having problem with Utorrent. when i try to download some torrent files with Utorrent my App are not connecting with server :<
[01:39] <_bachus_> the name of the .deb file you extracted from the .tar.bz2
[01:39] <VirhYl3> God I hate the terminal, why can't I just right click the folder and select dpkg?
[01:39] <IdleOne> VirhYl3, if synaptic doesnt find NVU then you dont have universe and multiverse enabled properly
[01:40] <perlm> does anyone know if the 2nd installdvd for Debian is necessary?
[01:40] <omeil> guys i have a problem
[01:40] <VirhYl3> IdleOne: they are both checked under software sources.
[01:40] <_bachus_> perlm: depends on what you want. i have the first 7 cds, and i don't need more programs
[01:40] <omeil> I'm not able to record in my mic :(
[01:40] <rambo3> VirhYl3, reload
[01:40] <omeil> i used to be able to talk in SKype but now i can't
[01:40] <perlm> _bachus_: just want to install the system
[01:41] <perlm> perhaps with xorg
[01:41] <perlm> :)
[01:41] <IdleOne> VirhYl3, and again. if synaptic doesnt find nvu then you DONT have universe and multiverse enabled
[01:41] <kane77> how can I set a network interface to be the default "out" (internet)? there was this choice in dapper..
[01:41] <VirhYl3> Ok, I'm reloading....
[01:41] <_bachus_> perlm: for a decent desktop system the first 3 cds are quite enough. so, the first DVD covers all that
[01:41] <IdleOne> !universe > VirhYl3 follow the link and do it right this time
[01:41] <VirhYl3> is mupen in synaptic?
[01:41] <niru> hello jordo23_
[01:41] <niru> Is there any link to get the method that ubuntu follows to come up with ubuntu cd
[01:41] <niru> Do ubuntu use preseed file
[01:42] <_bachus_> niru: don't get your question...
[01:42] <perlm> _bachus_: ok, but let me get this right also, debian uses apt, right? :-)
[01:42] <omeil> When i run audacity i get this message "There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer . you will not be able to record audio. Host: Error.
[01:42] <_bachus_> perlm: debian invented apt :)
[01:42] <niru> _bachus_ I want to go with ubuntu way of creating cds
[01:42] <rambo3> !info mupen
[01:42] <perlm> _bachus_: darn right!
[01:42] <perlm> haha
[01:42] <perlm> i had no idea
[01:42] <perlm> well, thanks!
[01:42] <ubotu> Package mupen does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[01:42] <_bachus_> np
[01:42] <niru> _bachus_ So is there any link or wiki page where I can get whole process
[01:43] <perlm> btw _bachus_
[01:43] <niru> _bachus_ I am having whole repo and d-i
[01:43] <perlm> is the 3.1_r5 release to prefer?
[01:43] <rambo3> perlm, you are in the wrong channel
[01:43] <VirhYl3> Ok, I check all the boxes under Software Sources, I reload, no NVU, no mupen.
[01:43] <perlm> or should i consider something earlier
[01:43] <perlm> rambo3: just asking harmless questions
[01:43] <rambo3> yeah consider #debian
[01:43] <perlm> i'll be off soon
[01:43] <_bachus_> niru: ubuntu creates cds the same way debian did, so followin their instructions should get you there. ill find a link
[01:44] <niru> _bachus_:But debian does not use seed method
[01:44] <niru> _bachus_does ubuntu use preseed file
[01:44] <_bachus_> perlm: http://www.debian.org/
[01:44] <niru> _bachus_How can I also use seed method for tasksel
[01:45] <VirhYl3> Oh, wait, I'm on Feisty.  That's the problem, isn't it?
[01:45] <spikeb> heh
[01:45] <spikeb> yes
[01:45] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: that's the kind of info you have to mention BEFOREHAND!
[01:45] <VirhYl3> soz...
[01:45] <VirhYl3> *sigh*
[01:45] <VirhYl3> still new.
[01:45] <jubei_> guys I wanna compile a kernel for my "2.6.15-26-server #1 SMP Fri Sep 8 21:00:37 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux"
[01:45] <VirhYl3> So how do I get NVU in Feisty?
[01:46] <VirhYl3> add a backport repo?
[01:46] <kane77> me again.. I couldnt read the answer as I turned on the desktop effects and it failed...
[01:46] <kane77> so how can I have one interface to be the default "out"?
[01:46] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: try installing the package you downloaded, it should work
[01:46] <Muninn> I have a problem setting Firefox as my default browser. Links keep opening in the terminal. Setting as default in "System > Preferences > Preferered application" does nothing, nor does getting FF to set itself as default.
[01:46] <rambo3> niru, that auto configuration file ? i have no idea
[01:46] <VirhYl3> does this mean terminal jargon?
[01:46] <VirhYl3> HURRAY!
[01:47] <jubei_> which package must I get?
[01:47] <VirhYl3> No way, I just double clicked nvu and it just ran.
[01:47] <VirhYl3> I'm down with portable apps!
[01:48] <el_moreniyo> ola alas xica
[01:48] <VirhYl3> installing is over rated anyway. :D
[01:49] <robokop> !es > el_moreniyo
[01:49] <_bachus_> hmm... wonder if there are instructions for my language...
[01:49] <_bachus_> !bs > _bachus_
[01:50] <_bachus_> nope... :/
[01:50] <_bachus_> !hr > _bachus_
[01:50] <jubei_> guys I want to compile a custom kernel for my 2.6.15-26-server. Which package must I get to have the kernel source?
[01:50] <rambo3> _bachus_,  #lugbih
[01:51] <_bachus_> tnx, i know, just wanted to see if there are any tips when typing bs ;)
[01:51] <VirhYl3> uh oh.  Mupen won't work the same way.
[01:51] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: maybe it needs to be compiled. look for a file called INTALL and README
[01:51] <rambo3> _bachus_, there is no bosnian loco team so no . you should find some people and start it
[01:52] <Arkaitz> So no one can tell me how to solve the Error 21, right?
[01:52] <VirhYl3> No there's an executable, a .ini, a .conf, and a what's new and icon.
[01:52] <VirhYl3> no compiling, I'm sure.
[01:53] <_bachus_> i think there was one, just that they never did anything...
[01:53] <VirhYl3> I bet it has dependencies in debian.
[01:53] <_bachus_> and no1 ever accepted them cuz they failed to recognize all citizens and languages of BiH
[01:53] <VirhYl3> what was that dpkg command again?
[01:54] <anthony_> hi, from where do i change the theme for beryl
[01:54] <VirhYl3> system preferences emerald.
[01:55] <anthony_> 10x VirhYl3
[01:55] <anthony_> didnt see it must be blind
[01:55] <rambo3> _bachus_, no i was wron : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BosniaHerzegovinaTeam
[01:55] <VirhYl3> np
[01:55] <VirhYl3> lol, worse has happened.
[01:55] <kippi> hey
[01:55] <VirhYl3> buenas nachos.
[01:55] <kippi> can you create a raid 0 in ubuntu using software?
[01:55] <_bachus_> Arkaitz: there is a package called grub-doc or similar, maybe you can find sth in the documentation
[01:56] <Arkaitz> Im on windows now, I cant download that package
[01:56] <skoen> does anybody know if one whould be able to install axis camera station on ubuntu???
[01:56] <VirhYl3> So how do I manually add a package I downloaded in Synaptic?
[01:56] <skoen> i think you will most probably have to use wine
[01:56] <_bachus_> Arkaitz: http://packages.ubuntu.com  make a search
[01:57] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: sudo dpkg -i package.deb
[01:57] <omeil> so can anyone help me with my audio problem?
[01:57] <SiMONZ> hello
[01:58] <_bachus_> omeil: Audacity right?
[01:58] <VirhYl3> database area is locked by another process.
[01:58] <VirhYl3> wtf?
[01:58] <SiMONZ> if i was to use ubuntu wat irc program can i use?
[01:58] <skoen> does anybody know if one whould be able to install axis camera station on ubuntu???
[01:58] <VirhYl3> gaim.  It's built in.
[01:58] <omeil> _bachus_, Everything won't work :(
[01:58] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: CLose Synaptic first!
[01:58] <VirhYl3> o ic.
[01:58] <VirhYl3> :)
[01:58] <_bachus_> omeil: Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[01:58] <omeil> _bachus_, i tried other sound recorder programs and nothing. even skype won't work.
[01:58] <omeil> _bachus_, Ubuntu but i also have Kubuntu installed
[01:59] <VirhYl3> new problem.  There is no .deb in that file, just an executable.
[01:59] <_bachus_> omeil: Seems like your sound is not set up to be duplex, so one program when using sound is always blocking the other
[01:59] <omeil> _bachus_, anyways to fix the problem?
[01:59] <Arkaitz> Can be ubuntu installed on a external HD drive?
[02:00] <jubei_> hello everyone: To compile a kernel, do I need a generic kernel source package from kernel.org or do I need an Ubuntu-specific package?
[02:00] <jubei_> i.e what's best?
[02:00] <_bachus_> omeil: dunno. search the boards on http://www.ubuntuforums.org
[02:00] <_bachus_> they sure have the answer
[02:00] <rambo3> omeil, alsamixer  find (MM) and press m to enable the sound
[02:00] <_bachus_> jubei_: doesn't matter.
[02:00] <vciaglia> hello, everyone is using VMWARE SERVER on feisty amd64 ?
[02:01] <jubei_> _bachus_: u sure? I was thinking that mabye an ubuntu package might have specific ubuntu patches etc
[02:01] <Flannel> !kernel | jubei_
[02:01] <ubotu> jubei_: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[02:02] <zhuqi> is there anybody tell me how to recover yaboot when it lost?
[02:02] <Agiofws> is there a net install for ubuntu server ?
[02:03] <omeil> rambo3, nope didn't work. I have sound. whats weird is i did the audio tests and only the sound capture is not working
[02:03] <Flannel> Agiofws: do you mean full fledged netinstall? or just the minimal iso?
[02:03] <Agiofws> Flannel,  mayme minimal install iso
[02:04] <_bachus_> omeil: It's a problem with Audacity, it has to be set up to use your sound wrapper (esound or arts, depends on whether it's Gnome or KDE
[02:04] <jubei_> Flannel: ok. However this howto says and i quote: "to build the mISDN modules locally using your current linux kernel sources". I can't find sources for my current kernel "2.6.15-26-server"
[02:04] <Agiofws> i wan to instal ubuntu server though
[02:04] <Flannel> Agiofws: minimal ISO is like the alternate CD, but without any packages (downloading them all from the interblags)
[02:04] <Agiofws> ok good
[02:04] <omeil> _bachus_, so audacity is effecting every single program that has voice capture?
[02:04] <_bachus_> search the boards, cuz this takes a bit longer to fix
[02:04] <Flannel> Agiofws: Ubuntu server is just the alt CDs "server" install (no GUI) with the server kernel (which can be swapped easily enough after install)
[02:05] <rambo3> omeil, so mic and mic boost enabled didnt work,
[02:05] <taggie> is anybody who is ACPI smart around? I'm having a cpu-scaling problem (on a thinkpad t60p) with feisty.
[02:05] <omeil> rambo3, nope
[02:05] <rambo3> omeil, whats the driver/card ?
[02:05] <Flannel> taggie: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support
[02:05] <Agiofws> Flannel,  you a url fro minimal install  cause ubuntu server is 480 mb DL in size
[02:05] <_bachus_> omeil: ahhhhh! sorry, then it might be your drivers
[02:06] <omeil> rambo3, AC97 was working before tho...
[02:07] <Flannel> !mini | Agiofws
[02:07] <ubotu> Agiofws: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[02:07] <Flannel> Agiofws: you'll still be downloading all that stuff though, just at install time.  So, it won't really help if you're looking to save on bandwidth
[02:08] <Agiofws> is there an official ubuntu monimal install iso ?
[02:08] <clip> never heard of it
[02:08] <VirhYl3> where does wine install c:\program files?
[02:08] <Flannel> Agiofws: That URL I just gave you
[02:08] <gnomefreak> Agiofws: server install from the alternate cd
[02:08] <Flannel> VirhYl3: ~/.wine/drive_c/
[02:09] <Agiofws> Flannel,  so i should DL the server edition  which is about 500MB is the same thing as installing minimal iso ?
[02:09] <_bachus_> VirhYl3: /home/yourname/.wine/drive_c/
[02:09] <Haekke> Is it just as easy to mount a usb disk as a normal hd on edgy?
[02:09] <Flannel> Agiofws: no.  The minimal CD is about 10MB
[02:10] <rambo3> omeil, ok and board ? do you have alsa-oss ?
[02:10] <Flannel> jubei_: just install linux-source, thatll get you the source for 2.6.15-26
[02:10] <jubei_> Flannel: thanks!:D
[02:10] <Arkaitz> Can be ubuntu installed on a external HD drive?
[02:11] <omeil> rambo3, don't really know what both of them mean :( i know they are different sound things :)
[02:11] <Flannel> Arkaitz: no reason why it couldn't, so yeah.
[02:11] <omeil> rambo3, but i think i have it
[02:11] <rambo3> omeil, lspci
[02:11] <Arkaitz> so anyone knows why I get the Grub error # 21 ?
[02:11] <rambo3> omeil, lshw -C sound
[02:12] <rambo3> works too
[02:12] <Askar> I want a calendar on my desktop that shows information from evolution, is it possible?
[02:13] <omeil> rambo3, what do you need to know?
[02:13] <rambo3> vendor
[02:13] <jubei_> Flannel: shouldn't linux source install the sources in /usr/src?:)
[02:13] <omeil> SiS
[02:13] <derrin> Hi all.  I'm having trouble finding #phpwm  which is supposed to be on freenode??
[02:14] <Flannel> jubei_: I believe it does.
[02:14] <rambo3> omeil, it cant be ac97
[02:14] <Flannel> derrin: looks like you got bad info.  that channel isn't on freenode.  You might try ##php though.
[02:15] <jubei_> Flannel: "Get:1 http://security.ubuntu.com dapper-security/main linux-source 2.6.15.26 [23.4kB] " 23 kilobytes, does that make sense?:)
[02:15] <rambo3> omeil, http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/index.php?vendor=vendor-SiS#matrix
[02:15] <omeil> rambo3,product: AC'97 Sound Controller
[02:16] <derrin> Thanks Flannel
[02:16] <Toby2> I have an older sony notebook (192mg ram) which ran XP fine, so I wiped the hard drive totally clean, even the MBR, so to get Ubuntu on, can someone point me to an easy resource on how to add a MBR then install U... This machine was set to boot from the CD drive.
[02:16] <rambo3> omeil, witch one of those do you have ?
[02:16] <spikeb> Toby2: ubuntu should offer to put grub in the MBR
[02:16] <JdGordon> anyone know if sdl is broken in FF beta?
[02:16] <Flannel> jubei_: yeah, it's getting the package from the repositories
[02:16] <Haekke> Is it just as easy to mount a external usb disk as a normal harddisk on edgy?
[02:16] <Toby2> so download the iso, put on cd, and restart? That's all?
[02:16] <spikeb> JdGordon: you could probably find out on launchpad or in #ubuntu+1
[02:16] <jubei_> Flannel: but only 23 kilobytes?
[02:16] <Flannel> jubei_: Yeah.  It's source, and gzipped
[02:16] <omeil> rambo3, i don't know..i don't have any info like that :(
[02:16] <Jowi> Arkaitz, error 21 is normally that grub can not find the disk. might be that grub has wrong info (trying to access hda3 when it's actually hdb3 it need).
[02:16] <Flannel> jubei_: the kernel is rather small
[02:17] <derrin> I am a new Ubuntu user (got new computer last night) nd am hitting vrious proems.  An urgent one is that I need to emil an important document dtored on my external hard drive but it won't attach to the email message I want to send.  any ideas wht the problem could be?  I'll bet it's something v basic?
[02:17] <jubei_> Flannel: but it doesn't put anything in my usr/src .. where will I point the stuff that i wanna compile. somethings wrong
[02:17] <Arkaitz> [Jowi]  and how can i change that info?
[02:17] <varka> Toby2: yes
[02:17] <nox-Hand> How do I add fonts to Ubuntu?
[02:17] <rambo3> omeil, in terminal type : lshw -C sound | grep product
[02:17] <omeil> rambo3, its ok just looked in the device manager. its the SiS7012
[02:18] <Toby2> thanks. this is a good resource. will try this. haven't use IRC for 7+ years. Out.
[02:18] <Flannel> jubei_: it does.  /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.15.tar.bz2  you need to unzip/untar it.
[02:18] <spikeb> Toby2: :)
[02:18] <Jowi> Arkaitz, you change it in /boot/grub/menu.lst (or swap the disks in CMOS/BIOS). it depends on your hardware setup really. hard for me to say.
[02:18] <Flannel> !fonts | nox-Hand
[02:18] <rambo3> omeil, ok you have the same driver as i do
[02:18] <ubotu> nox-Hand: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[02:18] <sabe4baba> hello
[02:18] <nox-Hand> Flannel: Thanks
[02:19] <omeil> rambo3, is there anyway i can reinstall the driver?
[02:19] <sabe4baba> please how can I get the drivers for my toshiba laptop M45-S265
[02:19] <Haekke> Is it just as easy to mount a external usb disk as a normal harddisk on edgy?
[02:19] <rambo3> omeil, no need for that you just need to add some flags to driver
[02:19] <Arkaitz> [Jowi]  the thing is if I get the Grub loading error how can I change the /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[02:19] <Askar> How do I get permission to move files to trash?!
[02:20] <Jowi> Arkaitz, from the live cd.
[02:20] <omeil> Askar: files from / ?
[02:20] <Flannel> Arkaitz, Jowi, you can edit your menu listing fromGRUB, just hit 'e' while highlighting the one you want to change.
[02:20] <Cork> how does one go about copying files into /usr/games/?
[02:21] <Jowi> Flannel, Arkaitz, yes. but it's a bit hard to verify the disk names/locations from there :)
[02:21] <Haekke> Can someone help ?? Is it just as easy to mount a external usb disk as a normal harddisk on edgy?
[02:21] <Arkaitz> [Jowi]  so what do you recommend me to do?
[02:21] <spikeb> Haekke: should be
[02:21] <Arkaitz> Load the LiveCD?
[02:22] <derrin> I am a new Ubuntu user (got new computer last night) and am hitting various problems.  An urgent one is that I need to email an important document stored on my external (USB) hard drive but it won't attach to the email message I want to send.  I think the problem may be permissions? Any ideas what the problem could be?  I'll bet it's something v basic?
[02:22] <somewhat> Haekke, easier, just plug it in and turn it on :)
[02:22] <Askar> omeil:  no files from my desktop
[02:22] <Haekke> spikeb: thanks.. how about if I format the system drive. Then its easy to mount the drive again without losing data?
[02:22] <omeil> Askar: you can't delete them?
[02:22] <Haekke> somewhat: sounds good :D
[02:22] <johnh> can someone help - when I issue mpstat 1 | awk '{print}' I get no output for 15-20 seconds then get a batch - can I turn off the buffering?
[02:22] <sabe4baba> please how can I get the drivers for my toshiba laptop M45-S265 ?
[02:22] <Accident> what does ubuntu use to handle the volume stuff?
[02:22] <Askar> omeil: No.. I have no permission to write to .Trash
[02:22] <Jowi> Arkaitz, load the live cd. run a terminal. check with fdisk or parted what the name of the disk actually is. mount the external disk partition you installed ubuntu on and edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to correct the info in there. reboot.
[02:22] <Haekke> somewhat: while system is running?
[02:22] <Accident> i really like that volume meter that appears when the fn volume keys are used
[02:23] <Accident> and i'd like to use it on gentoo.
[02:23] <omeil> Askar: you could always gksu nautilus then browse to desktop then delte from the browser
[02:23] <somewhat> Haekke, sure - its just like using a USB thumb drive
[02:23] <Askar> omeil: yeah..but I want to be able to use my tras :(
[02:24] <tarzeau> johnh: maybe http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man1/unbuffer.1.html
[02:24] <omeil> Askar: ah i forgot how to remove the root permission lol :D
[02:24] <Arkaitz> [Jowi]  step by step ahahahahaIm kind of nerdy. If I access to the /boot/grub/menu.lst wont I be accesing to the temporal liveCD file instead of the one on my HD ?
[02:24] <Haekke> somewhat: great :D how about if I format the system drive and reinstall ubuntu? Can I then just mount the drive again without losing data?

[02:25] <genii> hmm
[02:25] <somewhat> Haekke, sure, just make sure you dont format your USB drive too ;)  keep it unplugged
[02:25] <Askar> omeil: yes
[02:25] <omeil> rambo3, do you know what to do?
[02:25] <somewhat> when you plug it in it will just automount and put an icon on your desktop
[02:26] <Jowi> Arkaitz, yes. that's why you mount the partition you installed ubuntu to. and you access menu.lst on that partition. I do not have any step by step instructions but perhaps ubotu do....
[02:26] <spikeb> Askar: you can just sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash and it will be recreated
[02:26] <Jowi> !grub | Arkaitz

[02:26] <Haekke> somewhat: I will :), is ext3 the preferred filesystem for file storage 350mb-8gb files?
[02:26] <omeil> Askar, umm....just ask your question again on here someone is bound to know.
[02:26] <somewhat> I guess it depends on if you care about reading the drive in a windows box also
[02:26] <Accident> anyone? volume popup?
[02:26] <majesty89> hi everyone, does anybody know how to broadcast my webcam via a specific program? i want to broadcast my webcam through my modem..
[02:27] <angela__75> hello there, having problems with lilo, Warning: '/proc/partitions' does not match '/dev' directory structure.
[02:27] <genii> ext3 does 8TERA not GIGA filesize limit
[02:27] <Haekke> somewhat: yep its supposed to be readable via samba on windows too
[02:27] <Arkaitz> [Jowi]  ahahahaha I just needed that explanation, you have been really helpfull. :D
[02:27] <Askar>  How do I get permission to write to /home/askar/.Trash
[02:27] <Askar> ??
[02:27] <Arkaitz> hope it works
[02:27] <Jowi> Arkaitz, there might be more info in the forums.
[02:27] <somewhat> oh ok, I meant directly plugging it in to a winodows box ;) it wouldnt like ext3!
[02:28] <genii> Well, technically 4 Tb 1 file
[02:28] <omeil> rambo3, ill try loggin in with the KDE GUI and see if the drivers owrk there
[02:28] <spikeb> Askar: using chown

[02:28] <Haekke> somewhat: ahh yeah I know that.. no its only used for this box. is there a filesys for both windows and linux for external drives?
[02:29] <Jowi> gandor, it seems to be in universe repo
[02:29] <somewhat> looking at the file sizes you said not really, usually fat32 is safe but has 2gb file limit
[02:29] <Arkaitz> [Jowi]  one last thing, I have 2 hard drives, in one of them it is windows installed, in the other one 3 partitions / /home and swap. which one do I have to mount and how do I mount it?
[02:29] <Askar> spikeb: doesnt help
[02:30] <somewhat> in saying that NTFS is readable stable, writeable somewhat experimental although I think its a lot better now
[02:30] <Askar> spikeb: still cant things to trash from my desktop
[02:30] <spikeb> hmm
[02:30] <spikeb> Askar: sounds like a bug
[02:30] <somewhat> also I believe ext2/3 can be read from windows with a driver installed, just not plug an play
[02:30] <ondrejp> Hey guys.
[02:30] <gandor> Jowi, where should I go to get it then? sorry but I'm still kinda new to this
[02:30] <ondrejp> I installed Beryl. What does it perform better with, nVidia or nVidia and XGL?
[02:30] <genii> somewhat There is an ext3 driver for windwos
[02:30] <Jowi> ubotu, tell gandor about universe
[02:31] <ikonia_> the ext3 driver for windows should not be clased as stable though
[02:31] <somewhat> from memory the ext2 driver works with ext3, I remember reading somewhere
[02:31] <Jowi> gandor, you should receive a message from ubotu
[02:31] <rambo3> omeil, you can test my config
[02:31] <somewhat> thanks ikonia :)

[02:31] <gandor> Jowi, yes got it, I'll have a look, thank you
[02:31] <Haekke> somewhat: ok.. Ill just stick with ext3 then.. doesnt matter about windows compatibility :D

[02:34] <ikonia_> Arkaitz selected for what ?
[02:34] <omeil> rambo3, didn't do anything..should u follow wat it says in the alsa website u gave me?
[02:35] <Arkaitz> I mean mount /dev/sdb1 /mountpoint

[02:45] <omeil> rambo3,  og ok
[02:46] <omeil> rambo3, i don't have the .asoundrc folder
[02:47] <omeil> rambo3, i don't have the .asoundrc folder
[02:47] <Toma-> some just broke the internet :<
[02:47] <bronze_0_1> Cause Gnome sucks
[02:47] <bronze_0_1> Its has a lousy design and tends towards bloatware in the windows tradition.
[02:47] <bronze_0_1> Sorry for the strength of that statement but I've been geting bitten by the Gnome "programming paradigm" quite a bit recently.
[02:47] <omeil> rambo3, i don't have the .asoundrc folder
[02:48] <jicecruncher> can anyone pleas tell me how to set up a transparent proxy over 2 network cards?
[02:48] <rambo3> omeil, its not folder its hidden file
[02:48] <omeil> rambo3, yup i know its not there :(
[02:48] <rambo3> !asoundrc
[02:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about asoundrc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:48] <rambo3> omeil, you need to create one
[02:48] <B|nTaRa> cp: reading `/media/cdrom0/mpegav/avseq01.dat': Input/output error
[02:48] <B|nTaRa> 
[02:48] <B|nTaRa> what the error means ?
[02:49] <jhaig> jicecruncher: Some time since I did it, so I cannot really remember.  I would recommend you to avoid it if you can, though.
[02:49] <omeil> rambo3, oh ok
[02:49] <Symmetria> :p it means you shouldnt be trying to pirate vcds *grin*
[02:49] <Symmetria> just kiddin :) it means it cant read the disk
[02:49] <Arkaitz> which graphic text editor does Kubuntu have?
[02:49] <Arkaitz> Ubuntu has gedit
[02:49] <rambo3> kate
[02:49] <Arkaitz> but Kubuntu?
[02:49] <rambo3> kate
[02:49] <Arkaitz> thanks
[02:49] <B|nTaRa> Symmetria, i can mount and see the data
[02:50] <jicecruncher> jhaig: yeah, but unavoidable, a pitty
[02:50] <B|nTaRa> what u mean by it cant read it ?
[02:50] <Enverex> When I log into Gnome it seems to take nearly a minute before the machine finishes loading everything even though I have no third party apps set to load on startup, can anyone give me any clues as to why it'd be taking so long?
[02:50] <omeil> rambo3, k done
[02:50] <omeil> rambo3, now i update-module?
[02:50] <DjViper> how do I configure fonts in gdm ?
[02:50] <rambo3> omeil, i would restart computer
[02:51] <omeil> rambo3,  k
[02:51] <exs> how do i get opera / firefox/ epiphany to register as uder the guide of internet explorer?
[02:51] <jhaig> jicecruncher: I found this - http://tldp.org/HOWTO/TransparentProxy.html.  On a modern kernel you should be able to skip the "Configuring the Kernel" section.
[02:51] <genii> ouch
[02:51] <jicecruncher> thanks
[02:52] <bain> afternoon all
[02:52] <jhaig> jicecruncher: However, remember that you can only have a transparent proxy in squid on one port.  This, for me, is possibly the major drawback.
[02:52] <jicecruncher> k
[02:53] <jubei_> guys dpkg -l shows me that i have "ii  linux-source-2.6.15               2.6.15-28.51 " installed. But I can't find it under /usr/src. What can I do to make the system download it again?
[02:53] <Toby2> i'm back. 1st ever install, on older sony notebook, w/a wiped disk, no mbr. booted into 6.10 iso, starts okay, but now says "can't access tty; job control turned off. (initramfs) thanks.
[02:53] <unice> hi
[02:53] <exs>  how do i get firefox to go under the name of internet explorer, so i can access internet-only explorer sites?
[02:54] <kambei> exs: Why not just use Internet Explorer?
[02:54] <Enverex> exs, Are they IE only sites because of ActiveX or because some idiot made a check to only allow IE?
[02:54] <unice> just installed irssi on feisty beta
[02:54] <exs> kambei:  using ubuntu here
[02:54] <unice> the backspace key fails :)
[02:54] <kambei> exs: http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
[02:54] <exs> only to allow IE
[02:54] <unice> german kezboard
[02:54] <kambei> exs: We have the technology.
[02:54] <genii> I actually have somewhere a Solaris version of IE5
[02:55] <unice> irssi is the only app so far that has any problems
[02:55] <qb89dragon> can anyone please help me try to remove the yellow tooltips at the top of the gnome windowlist. When I installed fiesty beta, they were not present, after enabling and disabling desktop-effects, they have reappeared to haunt me
[02:56] <kambei> genii: You can run IE on Debian.
[02:56] <genii> kambei I'm talking of a native Unix IE, not under some emulator
[02:56] <AstroTralfaz> I'm having trouble running a live session on an iMac G3. Any suggestions?
[02:56] <jicecruncher> jhaig: anything else that I would have to know?
[02:56] <eilker> why "whois www.foo.com" not working in console  any idea ?   it says no match for it
[02:56] <kambei> genii: Why would you want to?
[02:57] <rambo3> do you mean:  host www.google.com  ?
[02:57] <cheapshades> jicecruncher: try foo.com
[02:58] <cheapshades> no "www."
[02:58] <_JuJuBee_> I teach in a wireless classroom.  What can I install on a server between the wifi router and the internet connection that will allow me to block URL's and access during certain time of day?
[02:58] <jicecruncher> cheapshades: ?
[03:03] <cheapshades> hehe, this dude acutally : eilker
[03:03] <mtron_x86> genii: check out http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page , it's a script that installs a special version of wine together with IE (with the latest rendering engine of IE7)
[03:03] <cheapshades> sorry
[03:03] <jubei_> _JuJuBee_: ubuntu server and then squid
[03:03] <genii> kambei I wouldn't actually particularly want to. But just the idea is intriguing. Then for instance you could use IETab extensions from Firefox and such
[03:03] <gh0st> hello, how can i get a usb game pad (joytick to work)?
[03:03] <rambo3> _JuJuBee_,  you can run a publicip
[03:03] <_JuJuBee_> What does installing ubuntu server give me that ubuntu does not?
[03:03] <kambei> genii: Hrm.
[03:09] <dyrne> _JuJuBee_: nothing but a diff kernel
[03:09] <mtron_x86> JuJuBee:and  a option to install LAMP right away
[03:09] <dyrne> _JuJuBee_: its more or a stripped down desktop install without bloat
[03:09] <genii> mtron_x86:  Interesting :)
[03:09] <_JuJuBee_> I already have ubuntu installed, do I need to change?  I have mysql, php, apache all running
[03:09] <_JuJuBee_> along with nis, nfs
[03:09] <eilker> cheapshades> right, thanx
[03:09] <gh0st> hello, how can i get a usb game pad (joystick to work)? Where can i enable/configure it?
[03:09] <kambei> gh0st: You just plug it in.
[03:09] <hnsn> hello my 1050 friends, how are you all?
[03:09] <gh0st> kambei: and then?
[03:09] <kambei> gh0st: What are you trying to do with it?
[03:09] <gh0st> kambei: where can i know the DEVICE NAME?
[03:09] <kambei> gh0st: /dev/input/js0
[03:09] <gh0st> kambei: play a game with snes9x
[03:09] <kambei> gh0st: or /dev/js0

[03:09] <angela__75> hello, while with ubuntu 6.06 fonts visualization was perfect, I'm having ugly rendering with feisty (and with edgy before)... tried with elisanet repositories but i'm not having good results
[03:09] <sambagirl> total i mean
[03:09] <AstroTralfaz> I'm getting ready to install ubunto 6.10LTS on an iMac G3 but am having trouble getting a live session going. Any suggestions?
[03:09] <aalhamad> thanks
[03:09] <qb89dragon> anyone know how to remove the tooltips from gnome windowlist?
[03:09] <mtron_x86>  6.10 is NOT LTS!
[03:09] <angela__75> AstroTralfaz: try with safe graphics mode
[03:09] <mtron_x86> if you want a LTS version get dapper 6.06 (5 years support)
[03:09] <AstroTralfaz> 6.06 rather.
[03:09] <apokryphos> 5 year *server* support
[03:09] <apokryphos> 3 years on the desktop
[03:09] <mtron_x86> oh, ok, sorry for the mistake...;-)
[03:09] <AstroTralfaz> angela_75, I have an iMac G3.
 how many users have u seen here mostly ? i wonder it after your question
[03:09] <genii> AstroTralfaz: Did you hit C on boot to boot to the CD ?
[03:09] <sambagirl> well last year i saw maybe 1400 total?
[03:09] <AstroTralfaz> Yes, I did.
[03:09] <sambagirl> i dont recall this was when Seveas and bob2 were in here.
[03:09] <sambagirl> eilker
[03:09] <rambo3> sambagirl, it reaches max on new  version releese
[03:09] <jubei_> guys: "apt-get install linux-source" should fetch the sources for my RUNNING kernel, right?
[03:09] <Seveas> santos, back when bob2 was still here, ubuntu was 400-600 people
[03:09] <Seveas> sambagirl*
[03:09] <sambagirl> chao seveas
[03:09] <eilker> sambagirl> in fact i am mostly kubuntu channel , it is less than here
[03:09] <hnsn> have you ever seen the rain?
[03:09] <Seveas> max i've seen hre is 1200+
[03:09] <genii> AstroTralfaz: Does the screnn just stay black but the disk whirrs and so on?
[03:09] <sambagirl> ok maybe i exagerated some seveas
[03:09] <andrejkw> Hey guys.
[03:09] <eilker> rambo3: yeah u r rgiht

[03:09] <sambagirl> oh yes i remember that channel eilker
[03:09] <rambo3> andrejkw, xmms can
[03:09] <AstroTralfaz> I get a splash screen after I hit return. Stuff seems to load but the screen remains black after that.
[03:09] <sambagirl> but you know what, ubuntu has opened up linux to the world moreso then any other distrobution in my opinion. finally.
[03:09] <exs> has anyone got ineternet explorer running in ubuntu?  I really need it running... lots of people have got it working before i've seen
[03:09] <mtron_x86> yea i have IE running
[03:09] <MLimburg`AFKish> i dont at the moment, but a few installs ago i did
[03:09] <kambei> There is some app that displays a single line of system information on the desktop with a transparent background, I am wondering what the name is
[03:09] <genii> AstroTralfaz: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=118702
[03:09] <kambei> exs: Did you follow the link?
[03:09] <rambo3> exs, IEs4linux
[03:09] <eilker> sambagirl> i agree, ubuntu gave a new taste to linux world
[03:09] <kambei> exs: I gave you the link 10 minutes ago.
[03:09] <AstroTralfaz> that link addresses installation on an iMac G3?
 i installed it and it works but i dont use it
[03:09] <exs> rambo3:   i need ie 5 or higher
[03:09] <eilker> exs: mine is 6
[03:09] <exs> elkbuntu:  how did you do that?

[03:12] <andrejkw> It's a little sad that Kaffeine doesn't play shoutcast steams.
[03:13] <mtron_x86> andrej: hop over to #kaffeine and beg hftom ;)
[03:14] <Arkaitz> I dont have a grub.conf on my computer how do I create it?
[03:15] <Seveas> Arkaitz, you don't
[03:15] <elkbuntu> exs, how did i do what?
[03:15] <Seveas> grub.conf is a redhatism
[03:15] <Seveas> it's proper name is /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:15] <mtron_x86> i think you are looking for /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:15] <Arkaitz> [Seveas]  Im checkng that file
[03:15] <andrejkw> Having a little issue here. I get "The module Monitor & Display could not be loaded." whenever I click on Monitor & Display in System Settings. I think this has something to do with XGL, possibly. Is there anything I can do to fix it?
[03:16] <exs> elkbuntu:  install ie 6
[03:16] <Crescendo_> Is there a page for Ubuntu that "sells" it?  Makes the point of why it's so awesome?
[03:16] <genii> Seveas I like that term "redhatism" :)
[03:16] <Toma-> Arkaitz: if you really desire to have a grub.conf, just "sudo ln -s /boot/grub/menu.lst /etc/grub.conf" for that redhatian charm :)
[03:16] <Crescendo_> And perhaps helps people through their first experience?
[03:16] <Seveas> genii, the proper term is redhat-induced bastardization
[03:16] <Seveas> redhatism is shorter :)
[03:16] <um_whoa> !find mount
[03:16] <genii> Seveas LOL
[03:16] <ubotu> Found: mount, pmount, xfce4-mount-plugin, asmounter, gisomount (and 10 others)
[03:17] <_JuJuBee_> Is there a HOW-TO for squid on ubuntu?
[03:17] <um_whoa> !mount
[03:17] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[03:17] <_JuJuBee_> I found it in synaptic, but don't know how to configure it.
[03:17] <um_whoa> !fstab
[03:17] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[03:18] <um_whoa> !partitions
[03:18] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[03:18] <genii> JuJuBee Since it can be used in numerous ways it might help to know how you intend. Transparent proxy? Nonstandard port? Part of a proxy caching groups of squids? etc
[03:18] <Arkaitz> [Seveas]  one thing, the fact is that I get Error 21 because the Grub doesnt find the partition where theh SO is, but I dont really know what to change in this file
[03:18] <um_whoa> thanks ubotu ;)

[03:22] <hendrixski> genii, someone asked arien to post his error output
[03:23] <Seveas> Arkaitz, ubuntu maintains menu.lst for you. If it looks like what you said, you broke it yourself
[03:23] <Toma-> Has anyone tried Penumbra? It looks to be a sweet game. Does it run on ubuntu?
[03:23] <genii> _JuJuBee_: Ah, the _ in front is why I missed it :)
[03:23] <hendrixski> guys, you could use pastebin.ca to communicate the error output
[03:23] <_JuJuBee_> genii : Yes, created 2 different nick's One for home and one for work.  I forget to logout at home sometimes.
[03:23] <_JuJuBee_> My bad...
[03:24] <Toma-> mtron_x86: make sure you tell people to pastebin, rather than paste
[03:24] <rambo3> _JuJuBee_, /ghost
[03:24] <_JuJuBee_> You helped me earlier installing (or trying to) feisty...
[03:24] <_JuJuBee_> rambo3 ?
[03:24] <mtron_x86> ok, sorry, i thout people think of that on their own :-P
[03:24] <hendrixski> !pastebin
[03:24] <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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:24] <hendrixski> :-)
[03:24] <genii> _JuJuBee_:  Well, there is a decent article for squid/dansguardian here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=320733  which is what I suspect you are looking for
[03:25] <Arkaitz> [Seveas]  I didnt touch anything before the Error 21
[03:25] <Toma-> Seveas: looks like that guy didnt know any metter
[03:25] <rambo3> _JuJuBee_, you can ask server to remotly kick somone . but using 2 kicks is ok
[03:25] <Arkaitz> I opened the file to try to solve the Error 21
[03:25] <Kooka> hi all
[03:25] <Seveas> Arkaitz, then pastebin the complete file
[03:25] <_JuJuBee_> rambo3, don't know what you mean?  Sorry for my ignorance.
[03:26] <bobslaede> how do i permit ssh to localhost?
[03:26] <Seveas> bobslaede, apt-get install openssh-server
[03:26] <Jowi> Seveas, (sorry, I'm actually not available but had a quick look on my screen) I think you should know that Arkaitz has installed on external disk.
[03:26] <bobslaede> haha Seveas, i have that
[03:26] <bobslaede> i just cant ssh localhost
[03:26] <bobslaede> permission denied
[03:27] <Seveas> bobslaede, type this command: type ssh
[03:27] <Toma-> bobslaede: are you using the right username? "ssh username@localhost"
[03:27] <Seveas> and paste output :)
[03:27] <bobslaede> ssh is hashed (/usr/bin/ssh)
[03:27] <bobslaede> i can ssh fine to the machine from other computers..
[03:27] <Seveas> that's weird
[03:27] <bobslaede> Toma-: yes
[03:28] <hendrixski> bobslaede, whatis the benefit of ssh'ing onesself? just to test that it works?
[03:28] <bobslaede> hendrixski: nx
[03:28] <genii> hendrixski: My thought exactly
[03:28] <dyrne> bobslaede: youre not running in root shell or anything right?

[03:29] <bobslaede> hmm..
[03:29] <shinichizio> dyrne: compile something. to do that, I need to 'cd' to the directory with the file I want to compile. Somehow I'm not doing it right
[03:30] <bobslaede> Pici: which is wierd, as im on the machine in a ssh session already..
[03:30] <bobslaede> doing this
[03:30] <genii> try ssh localhost -p22
[03:30] <Arkaitz> http://rafb.net/p/A4gDS636.html
[03:30] <bobslaede> genii: nope
[03:30] <dyrne> shinichizio: what cd command are you using?
[03:30] <Arkaitz> [Seveas]  I pasted it there
[03:31] <shinichizio> dyrne: cd home/[and so on] 
[03:31] <EnsignRedshirt> What's the command to find the name associated with an ip address?
[03:31] <bobslaede> Nevermind folks...
[03:31] <genii> some access rule likely culprit in sshd_config
[03:31] <|sharky|> how can i view Photoshop PSD files on ubuntu ?
[03:32] <dyrne> shinichizio: cd /home  or just ~/ which means /home/$USER you need to tell it the home dir in / root
[03:32] <genii> EnsignRedshirt:  whois
[03:32] <hendrixski> shinichizio, if you're in /home/username and type cd home/asdf you're trying to go to/home/username/home/asdf...
[03:32] <bobslaede> genii: i was stupid...
[03:32] <Pici> bobslaede: You figured it out?
[03:32] <adop> I have a problem with samba. I can't see any computer from nautilus, not even mine.
[03:32] <genii> or arp/rarp
[03:32] <bobslaede> Pici: yeah... i had "AllowUsers nx" in there...
[03:32] <bobslaede> apprently then, i cant ssh localhost from other users...
[03:32] <hendrixski> shinichizio, for example cd /etc sends you to etc, cd etc/ sends you to /currentdirectory/etc
[03:32] <shinichizio> hendrixski: Oh. That would mess it up. How do I check where I 'am?
[03:33] <Prez_> what version of f-spot comes with feisty?
[03:33] <EnsignRedshirt> genii: Thanks.
[03:33] <hendrixski> shinichizio, pwd
[03:33] <hendrixski> pwd will tell you what directory you're currently in
[03:33] <shinichizio> hendrixski: Thankee.
[03:33] <hendrixski> :-)
[03:33] <_JuJuBee_> genii : did you find info for me? did I miss the post?
[03:33] <Pici> !info f-spot feisty
[03:33] <genii> _JuJuBee_:  Well, there is a decent article for squid/dansguardian here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=320733  which is what I suspect you are looking for
[03:33] <ubotu> f-spot: personal photo management application. In component main, is optional. Version 0.3.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 1397 kB, installed size 7212 kB
[03:33] <compilerwriter> bobslaede you should be able to ssh to localhost; at least I think you should be able to.
[03:33] <genii> _JuJuBee_:  You missed it :)
[03:33] <Pici> Prez_: See ubotu's message above
[03:33] <Prez_> thanks
[03:34] <_JuJuBee_> thanks, I did miss it,
[03:34] <shinichizio> The hell? It's still not working.
[03:34] <hendrixski> shinichizio, what isn't, the cd command?  you do have to cd into a legitimate directory
[03:34] <shinichizio> If I'm at home/shinichizio, and I wanted to get to home/shinichizio/desktop, wouldn't I just type cd /desktop? Or am I having some sort of series of brain failures
[03:34] <Prez_> anyoen try f-spot .35 to export to smugmug?
[03:34] <bobslaede> compilerwriter: yeah, i would think so too
[03:34] <hendrixski> shinichizio, Desktop has a capitla D
[03:34] <Pici> shinichizio: brain failures, unfortunately
[03:35] <Arkaitz> [Seveas]  are you there?
[03:35] <compilerwriter> bobslaede: are you certain that your ssh server is up and running properly.
[03:35] <shinichizio> hendrixski: It's still not working. : /
[03:35] <Pici> shinichizio: cd /desktop would take you too /desktop not /home/user/desktop
[03:35] <Arkaitz> http://rafb.net/p/A4gDS636.html
[03:35] <hendrixski> if you want to go to /home/shin/Desktop and you're in /home/shin/ then just type cd Desktop
[03:35] <Haekke> Hello, does somebody know what happens if I mount 2 harddrives to the same folder? which drive will the files I transfer end on?
[03:35] <shinichizio> Aaahhh. Okay.
[03:35] <compilerwriter> haekke I am thinking that that is just a bad idea.
[03:35] <shinichizio> I was using too many slashes.
[03:36] <ikonia_> ~~Haekke the second will mount over the fist
[03:36] <ikonia_> first
[03:36] <hendrixski> shinichizio, it took me a while to get used to at first ... yeah, just start by not using slashes
[03:36] <dyrne> Haekke: didnt you ever see ghostbusters? dont cross the streams man
[03:36] <Haekke> ok thanks.
[03:36] <Haekke> haha
[03:36] <hendrixski> then when you're comfortable with it, start playing around with the slashes
[03:36] <Pici> dyrne: hehe
[03:36] <dddddddd> arien here, back again... so i just got kicked for sending too much text?
[03:36] <shinichizio> okay, thank you for the help. I'll probably be whining again in minutes when I try to compile... -_-
[03:36] <mtron_x86> sorry, my bad, use a pstebin in the future
[03:36] <bobslaede> compilerwriter: yeah
[03:37] <bobslaede> compilerwriter: i had "AllowUsers nx" in sshd_config..
[03:37] <hendrixski> !pastebin | dddddddd
[03:37] <ubotu> dddddddd: 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:37] <bobslaede> compilerwriter: apparently that stoped me from ssh'ing localhost...
[03:37] <Baktaah> Excuse me, why can't I install ubuntu 7.02, I chooe format and it says I need a root disk, ( I got Ubuntu 6.10 installed) and it wont format
[03:37] <dddddddd> anyways... kaffeine tells me "X Error: BadDevice"
[03:37] <Haekke> Is there then a way to just mount them as 2 seperate, but merge them in 1 folder under proftpd?
[03:37] <mtron_x86> no, your log says: arien: /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 : opened ( ST STV0299 DVB-S )
[03:37] <ikonia_> Baktaah 1.( ubuntu support for fesity is in #ubuntu+1 2.( you need to define a root partition
[03:37] <mateus-br> Will Feisty has a free shipit?
[03:38] <compilerwriter> bobslaede It would have allowed user nx and only user nx to ssh to the machine period.
[03:38] <hendrixski> mateus-br, why wouldn't it?
[03:38] <dddddddd> yes that's true, i just quoted the first part of what you refer to
[03:38] <Haekke> ikonia_ : Is there then a way to just mount them as 2 seperate, but merge them in 1 folder under proftpd?
[03:38] <ikonia_> Haekke no there isn't
[03:38] <shinichizio> waaah.
[03:38] <mateus-br> hendrixski: because edgy wasn't
[03:38] <bobslaede> compilerwriter: you sure? wouldnt that throw me off my current session with another user?
[03:38] <dddddddd> weird thing is, dvb stopped working after i changed resolutions in xorg.conf
[03:39] <ikonia_> Haekke the only think you could do is mount them both and rsync them into another folder
[03:39] <hendrixski> mateus-br, ??? I was under the impression that it was
[03:39] <Baktaah> ikonia
[03:39] <Baktaah> I did
[03:39] <dyrne> shinichizio: sudo apt-get install build-essential   btw what are you trying to compile. its rare to not find something in a repo
[03:39] <compilerwriter> That stuff would only have gotten reread at the next time the ssh server fired up.
[03:39] <ikonia_> Haekke so you end up with two seperate mounted dir's but then a third folder containing a copy of both
[03:39] <Baktaah> ikonia I marked the Ext 3 disk and the Swap disk for format
[03:39] <dddddddd> now i use the old xorg.conf that i made a backup of, but dvb doesn't come back
[03:39] <hendrixski> mateus-br, let me check that really quickly
[03:39] <Haekke> ikonia: ok thanks.. wierd its just a simple command under my xp ftp. never tried transferring anything to the folder from the ftp thou, guess that could be bad
[03:39] <compilerwriter> blbslaede what are you trying to accomplish with ssh anyway.
[03:39] <mateus-br> hendrixski: only dapper has a worldwide free shipit
[03:39] <mateus-br> 6.06 LTS
[03:39] <bobslaede> compilerwriter: a nx server thing...
[03:39] <ikonia_> Baktaah as I said ubuntu support for fesity is in #ubuntu+1
[03:40] <shinichizio> dyrne: I'm trying to compile a plugin for xmms that will, allegedly, let me play various types of file that I can't now.
[03:40] <hendrixski> mateus-br,  oh worldwide.. maybe parts of the world
[03:40] <bobslaede> compilerwriter: terminal server stuff... which doesnt work anyway...
[03:40] <Baktaah> ikonia I havent even installed it... so :/
[03:40] <hendrixski> mateus-br, crap, I gotta go.  nevermind
[03:40] <hendrixski> good luck
[03:40] <ikonia_> Baktaah as I said ubuntu support for fesity is in #ubuntu+1
[03:40] <dyrne> shinichizio: and 'apt-cache search xmms | grep plugin' or whatever doesnt show it?
[03:40] <bobslaede> compilerwriter: but i restarted the ssh server
[03:40] <Haekke> ikonia_: yeah thats exactly what I want , oh well I guess its more secure to just make 2 seperate folders so nothing messes up
[03:41] <shinichizio> dyrne: Durrrrh? I dunno. Didn't know to try that.
[03:41] <mtron_x86> arien, can you test dvb with mplayer or xine?
[03:41] <compilerwriter> You must not yet have a DenyUsers going then.
[03:41] <dyrne> shinichizio: anyway its good to learn to compile stuff and a plugin is a safe way to start. youll have to install the build-essential package though first
[03:41] <dddddddd> mtron_x86, hang on a sec, i'll install the frontend to xine
[03:42] <mateus-br> maybe when 6.06 LTS ends
[03:42] <dddddddd> or do i need to do this in the commandline?
[03:42] <compilerwriter> I was working under the assumption you had a DenyUsers all going on.
[03:42] <sambagirl> ii see there is a server addition for ubuntu now. is this considered an enterprise server? does it incorporate for example IM, WEBMAIL SERVER, etc?
[03:42] <mtron_x86> mplayer -dvbin timeout=5 dvb://1@Channelname (as in ~/.mplayer/channels.conf
[03:42] <mtron_x86> dam smilies....
[03:42] <ikonia_> sambagirl read ubuntu.com - there is a server install
[03:42] <sambagirl> ikonia_ does it include like horde for webmail ?
[03:42] <mtron_x86> dvb : / / 1 @ Channelname (strip out the spaces)
[03:43] <shinichizio> dyrne: Yeah, it seems essential. heh
[03:43] <ikonia_> sambagirl read ubuntu.com- it has access to all the ubuntu repo's
[03:44] <dddddddd> my channel.conf in mplayer is empty. can i just use the one caffeine used?
[03:44] <matthew_> what command can I use to find out what kind of wireless card I have?
[03:44] <mtron_x86> no, kaffeine uses a different format for it's channes.dvb
[03:44] <mtron_x86> which sat are you on?
[03:44] <dyrne> matthew_: lspci -v or sudo lshw i believe

[04:11] <GNu_Joe> Question: setting up Ubuntu on a RAID array what block size to pick? ( which one works best for a desktop? )
[04:11] <Lunar_Lamp> I'm using edgy on a server, with a wireless connection. Currently the wireless network is unsecured.  How can I input a key so that when I turn on WEP encryption, the server can use it?
[04:11] <dddddddd> well halelujah
[04:11] <dddddddd> it works
[04:11] <mtron_x86> great ! :-O
[04:11] <dddddddd> thanks a lot!
[04:11] <tom_nessie_dappe> any can help with apt cache?
[04:11] <busfahrer> Anybody in here using MoBlock?
[04:11] <Horth> hi i have installed madwifi but still cant see any access points any ideas? thanks
[04:11] <dddddddd> now i'll have a look what kaffeine does
[04:11] <dyrne> aalhamad: not sure. if you just want to view then xchm ive used but i havent done any pdf work in linux
[04:11] <aalhamad> ooh ok
[04:11] <Zewey|away> busfahrer: yep?
[04:11] <abelard> my graphics card is onboard; which method do I use to install beryl
[04:11] <bulmer> Lunar_Lamp: so what if your wifi is unsecured, can a user log on to your system if not using ssh?
[04:12] <Horth> hi i have installed madwifi but still cant see any access points any ideas? thanks
[04:12] <ferronica> How to change Port in BitTorrent??
[04:12] <bulmer> Horth: what have you done so far to test connectivity?
[04:12] <Zewey|away> ferronica: what application are you using for bittorrent?
[04:12] <NET||abuse> void^, also found xdiskusage and wmdiskmon
[04:12] <Horth> ifdown eth0 and ifup ath0
[04:12] <Lunar_Lamp> bulmer huh? I want to turn on the wireless network security. When I do that, the server will need to have a wireless key so that IT can connect to the network
[04:13] <tom_nessie_dappe> anyone help with corrupt apt sources cache?
[04:13] <Zewey|away> ferronica: it should be somewhere in options or preferences
[04:13] <deep> Anyone know any good IDE (html / css in first hand, the more the merrier) that handles FTP?
[04:13] <asy> libdvdread3
[04:13] <xerophyte>  is there any guide or howto which explain how to secure a shell access + ircd server ?
[04:13] <ferronica> Zeweylaway: only bittorrent
[04:13] <dddddddd> cool, for whatever reason kaffeine plays fine too
[04:13] <dddddddd> or receives, rather
[04:13] <ferronica> Zeweylaway: default by ubuntu
[04:13] <dddddddd> b/c there is no sound
[04:13] <bulmer> Lunar_Lamp: it should not be anymore different than a client using a key to get to your AP
[04:13] <dyrne> bulmer: linux is used regularly in routers and such. im sure there are vulnerabilities but as a rule you need a service running for a connection to be established
[04:14] <Horth> any ideas?
[04:14] <kishore> what is the use of swap space in linux
[04:14] <Zewey|away> tom_nessie_dappe: do you have deb-src specified in your sources.list?
[04:14] <Lunar_Lamp> bulmer - yes - but I don't know to which file to add the key.  That's my question!  I want to do it before I turn on the network, as currently the server is running headless and accessed via ssh.
[04:14] <dyrne> bulmer: they might be able to print nasty things on your printer. call you names and stuff :)
[04:14] <tom_nessie_dappe> Zewey: yes
[04:20] <Zewey|away> ferronica: let me check :P
[04:20] <Horth> can someone help me with madwifi please?
[04:20] <mtron_x86> ddd: go to settings - xine parameters - audio.  what driver do you use (oss or alsa)
[04:20] <bulmer> dyrne those are in the non routable side not on same subnet as the AP
[04:20] <Zewey|away> ferronica: i don't think you can
[04:20] <Zewey|away> ferronica: you'll need to use a different client
[04:20] <busfahrer> Zewey|away: Can I query you for a second?
[04:20] <mknights> Does anyone know how to set up Networking on VIrtualBox?
[04:20] <kishore> ubotu, swap area
[04:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swap area - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:20] <Zewey|away> busfahrer: sure :P
[04:20] <kishore> ubotu, swap
[04:20] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[04:20] <mknights> nick MK_Mike
[04:20] <Frogzoo> xerophyte: that's quite an ask
[04:20] <bulmer> Lunar_Lamp: umm in ubuntu i assume debian ..uses  /etc/network/interfaces
[04:20] <ferronica> Zeweylaway: from command line
[04:20] <Zewey|away> tom_nessie_dappie: have you tried apt update once to make sure it has downloaded the Source file correctly from your mirror?
[04:20] <MK_Mike> Does anyone know how to set up Networking on VIrtualBox?
[04:20] <Lunar_Lamp> bulmer = ok - thanks - do you know the syntax required for it? I just know that i will need a key for ra0 - but not how to specify in there what it is.
[04:20] <MojoWork> hi. is upstart an ubuntu project, or a debian project?
[04:20] <tom_nessie_dappe> zewey: yes
[04:20] <busfahrer> Zewey|away: Getting anything? :-P
[04:20] <bulmer> Horth: whats the status of you ifup wlan0   what does it tell you?
[04:20] <dyrne> MojoWork: ubuntu
[04:20] <geekydiv> Hi I am trying to set up a mirror for edgy  using apt-mirror and i am getting this error  - apt-mirror: invalid config file specified at /usr/bin/apt-mirror line 101. when i give this command
[04:20] <MojoWork> dyrne: interesting
[04:20] <tom_nessie_dappe> zewey: or maybe not
[04:20] <MojoWork> are there any others? ;)
[04:20] <dyrne> MojoWork: i like debian but it would have taken another decade for any movement from them
[04:20] <tom_nessie_dappe> zewey: am checking
[04:20] <MojoWork> i had up to now been assuming ubuntu was basically 6-month stabalized snapshots of sid
[04:20] <tom_nessie_dappe> zewey: i did it again... now it works
[04:20] <MojoWork> dyrne: LOL, tru dat
[04:20] <tom_nessie_dappe> thanks
[04:20] <Zewey|away> ferronica: um, not sure about command line :P
[04:20] <bulmer> Lunar_Lamp: not off hand, but if I were you, get your server working with wifi access first in the clear and then attempt to make it work with wpa keys or whatever, easier to troubleshoot
[04:20] <rocksouled> Lads, I'm having difficulty alternating between wireless connections in college and my lan connection at home. Is there anything specific i should be watching out for?
[04:20] <xerophyte> Frogzoo, i know :)
[04:20] <Zewey|away> ferronica: try out "Deluge"
[04:20] <Lunar_Lamp> bulmer it is working wirelessly :-)
[04:20] <rocksouled> altering the network settings doesn't appear to help my lan
[04:20] <Zewey|away> busfahrer: are you getting my replies?
[04:20] <Horth> There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.wlan0.pid with pid 134993416
[04:20] <Horth> Failed to bring up wlan0.
[04:20] <busfahrer> Zewey|away: Nope, are you regged?
[04:20] <dddddddd> mtron: in xine it says auto, but i'm pretty sure it's alsa. switching to alsa makes kaffeine crash though
[04:20] <ferronica> Zeweylaway: Bad command :(
[04:20] <Zewey|away> busfahrer: good point :P
[04:20] <bulmer> Lunar_Lamp: okay, umm would it be too difficult to search in google for setting up a key?  :)
[04:20] <mtron_x86> wow, are you running ubuntu or kbuntu?
[04:20] <Lunar_Lamp> bulmer - by the evidence on my searching so far - yes ;-)
[04:20] <bulmer> Horth: then bring it down first, ifdown  and then ifup
[04:20] <geekydiv> Hi I am trying to set up a mirror for edgy  using apt-mirror and i am getting this error  - apt-mirror: invalid config file specified at /usr/bin/apt-mirror line 101. when i give this command can someone help me in this regard please
[04:20] <Zewey> !deluge dapper
[04:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about deluge dapper - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:20] <Frogzoo> xerophyte: remove all suid binaries & run tripwire regularly for starters
[04:20] <bulmer> Lunar_Lamp: let me see what i'd find ..
[04:20] <Horth> wlan0?
[04:20] <FD-Spuddy> hi guys
[04:20] <MK_Mike> Does anyone know how to set up Networking on VIrtualBox?
[04:20] <Zewey> ferronica: oops, dapper doesn't have deluge

[04:20] <ferronica> Zewey: ok
[04:21] <dddddddd> it's ubuntu edgy here

[04:21] <ferronica> Zewey: you know i prefer Azureus but when download azureus mozilla firefox too downloded free with it LOL
[04:21] <vieirar> Hi I was wondering two things. 1. I have an 57" HDTV 1080P will a Mythtv box upconvert my DVDs? 2. What is the best HD TVTuner for linux?
[04:21] <ferronica> Zewey: which i dont want
[04:21] <bulmer> Lunar_Lamp: see it wasnt that difficult ..hehehe
[04:22] <mtron_x86> install kcontrol (sudo apt-get install kcontrol) and check that Sound & Multimedia - Sound System - Hardware Tab is set to use "Advances Linux Sound Architecture"
[04:22] <vieirar> I also asked on mythtv-users but thought I would ask here too since the Ubuntu community is the best
[04:22] <Lunar_Lamp> bulmer = yeah - my google skills are weak today clearly - took me a while to find what I needed ;-)
[04:22] <Zewey> ferronica: do you have wine?
[04:22] <ferronica> Zewey: no
[04:22] <bulmer> Horth look you need to prefix your responses with a nick, we will miss your directed responses
[04:22] <lix> vieirar: Check http://linuxmce.org
[04:22] <ferronica> Zewey: downloded azureus via synaptic
[04:22] <Zewey> hmm, better not
[04:23] <ferronica> Zewey: i dont wanna to use windows application
[04:23] <abelard> is it possible to have a passwordless acount?
[04:23] <Horth> in other words? coz i didnt get that
[04:23] <lix> vieirar: ups. sorry. it's http://linuxmce.com
[04:23] <ferronica> Zewey: i think wine is for window application to run in linux
[04:23] <Zewey> ferronica: yes, i thought you might prefer easier to install ones as well :P
[04:23] <Zewey> hold on
[04:23] <Zewey> ferronica: it is
[04:24] <geekydiv> Hi I am trying to set up a mirror for edgy  using apt-mirror and i am getting this error  - apt-mirror: invalid config file specified at /usr/bin/apt-mirror line 101. when i give this command can someone help me in this regard please
[04:24] <tweako> hey guys..any of you operate a tech blog or website??
[04:24] <Zewey> ferronica: and utorrent actually runs incredibly well on linux, which is even better than most linux bittorrent clients.
[04:24] <vieirar> lix cool thanks. I was planning on using linuxmce since I always install Ubuntu. Will look over there site
[04:24] <Horth> bulmer, ifdown: interface wlan0 not configured
[04:25] <ferronica> Zewey: but utorrent not avaialble for linux !
[04:25] <shinichizio> Hey, can someone help me with compiling something?
[04:25] <bulmer> Horth: what is the configured name for your wifi nic?
[04:25] <void^> NET||abuse: well, that system monitor should be installed by default :)
[04:25] <Zewey> ferronica: that's why people run it on wine :)
[04:25] <Horth> bulmer: how do i know that?
[04:26] <ferronica> Zewey: other
[04:26] <um_whoa> Horth: lspci -v
[04:26] <Toma-> ferronica: deluge is a superb linux torrent manager
[04:26] <Zewey> ferronica: hold on
[04:26] <Toma-> i use it daily
[04:27] <kane77> how can I have one (wifi) interface to be the default "out" (internet) interface and use the eth0 only for LAN? in dapper there is a choice of default, however not in feisty...
[04:27] <bulmer> Horth: whats the listed names in the file /etc/network/interfaces file?
[04:27] <tweako> my site has launched today - http://www.tweako.com - i think its a site you guys will all love..its a social network based on technology and computing
[04:27] <tweako> if you run a tech blog or site..you can submit all of your links to content, etc
[04:27] <tweako> its a great site
[04:27] <tom_nessie_dappe> add a mounted iso to repository instead of cd using synaptic? anyone?
[04:28] <tom_nessie_dappe> i mounted 6.10 iso to /mnt/iso on 6.06
[04:28] <tom_nessie_dappe> and what to use it upgrade rather than doing it online
[04:28] <bulmer> tom_nessie_dappe: am not sure but i would assume just like the cdrom as the source, but instead of "cdrom://" maybe "file://"
[04:28] <tom_nessie_dappe> synaptic only lets you add a CD
[04:28] <Zewey> ferronica: see if you install ktorrent
[04:28] <dddddddd> all right... i set kcontrol to alsa... now kaffeine causes a "signal 11 SIGSEGV"
[04:29] <peaker> omg! I am looking at ifup/ifdown's code. Its written in noweb! I can't believe people actually use those "literary programming" frameworks!
[04:29] <ferronica> Zewey: ok
[04:29] <dddddddd> damn linux is fun :)
[04:29] <tom_nessie_dappe> ie it doesnt let you specify a source

[04:29] <_JuJuBee_> Got a dansguardian question : if I set dansguardian filterip to the ip address of the NIC that connects to my internal network and the filterport to 80, will that filter ALL http requests coming from inside my classroom without having to use proxy settings in the browser?
[04:29] <dimas> if i install spca5xx drive with synaptic do i have to compil?
[04:29] <MK_Mike> Can some one help me with VIrtualBox http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=396295
[04:30] <ferronica> Zewey: yes K torrent and Azureus available in Add/Remove
[04:30] <Zewey> ferronica: try that :)
[04:30] <bulmer> peaker what is noweb? is that another programming script language?
[04:31] <MLimburg`AFKish> Damn, deluge looks nice
[04:31] <Zewey> deluge was a little buggy the last time i tried it...
[04:31] <Toma-> Deluge is the best :>
[04:31] <ferronica> Zewey: So there is no way to change Port
[04:32] <Zewey> good to hear they've improved
[04:32] <Zewey> ferronica: not that i know of :P
[04:32] <Mr_Ravel> hmmm is there like a gnome and kde ubuntu?
[04:32] <mtron_x86> ddd: which package of kaffeine are you using?
[04:33] <Rumpanzle> Q: how do I get my ALT GR key working like expected (I edited xorg.conf and commented the lv3 out)
[04:33] <Toma-> Mr_Ravel: yes indeedy
[04:33] <mtron_x86> Get yourself the latest 0.8.3 release and build it from source (the package in the Repos is unfortunatly very buggy)
[04:33] <Rumpanzle> I need special symbols and like to get them wihtout using the charmap and copy/paste
[04:33] <lavid> Rumpanzle: mejor preguntar en ubuntu-es, como usan eso mas que nosotros aca
[04:34] <lavid> Rumpanzle: i'm assuming arcor is argentina
[04:34] <Mr_Ravel> hmmm ok
[04:34] <dddddddd> well 0.8.3 is what i have... should i still compile it from source nontheless?
[04:34] <Rumpanzle> nope, germany
[04:34] <lavid> i lose
[04:34] <peaker> bulmer: Its a silly "literate programming framework" that makes the code completely unreadable/unmaintainable :) It allows exrtacting either a .c file or an .html file from the same code
[04:35] <ph> hi
[04:35] <peaker> bulmer: I think these people don't know that "literate programming" can be done by using good function/variable naming :P
[04:35] <mtron_x86> yes, there are custom ubuntu / debian patches added that make kaffeine IMO much more unstable
[04:35] <Rumpanzle> the key right of space (alt gr) just gives me numbers on num pad
[04:35] <dddddddd> hehe now that sounds reasonable ;)
[04:35] <bulmer> peaker thats the 1st time i've heard of such..thanks for the enligthenment
[04:36] <lavid> Rumpanzle: open up the keyboard config setting from the system dropdown
[04:36] <dddddddd> kay, off for a cig and we'll see what i can achieve
[04:36] <mtron_x86> better: make a svn checkout http://kaffeine.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=developers
[04:36] <ph> can anybody tell my which ubuntu version i need to install on a coredou notebook?
[04:36] <lavid> Rumpanzle: then find the appropriate layout
[04:36] <Rumpanzle> problem: xfce desktop :/
[04:37] <peaker> bulmer: I knew these things existed somewhere, but I didn't know people actually used them :)
[04:37] <lavid> Rumpanzle: then it's a question of changing the layout... however one does that on xfce
[04:37] <Rumpanzle> couldn't find so far
[04:37] <Rumpanzle> I take a deeper look into that
[04:37] <lavid> Rumpanzle: beyond just the xorg.conf
[04:37] <lavid> Rumpanzle: best of luck
[04:37] <Rumpanzle> ty, lavid
[04:37] <peaker> bulmer: I am trying to fix ifupdown's bug in ubuntu where it simply ignores wireless options in /etc/network/interfaces -- rendering encrypted/far access points  unusable at boot time and after install in all ubuntu machines
[04:38] <peaker> bulmer: and its quite hard to figure out where it is
[04:38] <mtron_x86> ddd a small tip before compiling run "sudo apt-get build-dep kaffeine" and use "sudo chekinstall" instead of "sudo make install"
[04:38] <bulmer> peaker all along i thought those were C code and are just binaries..never realy looked deep into those
[04:38] <mtron_x86> it's "sudo checkinstall" sorry for the typo
[04:39] <EkToBoT> Hello what is linux ?
[04:39] <ph> EkToBoT: an operating system
[04:39] <EkToBoT> ph: whats that ?
[04:39] <mtron_x86> actually Linux is only the kernel
[04:40] <ph> EkToBoT: use wikipedia
[04:40] <ferronica> Zewey: but K torrent is designed for KDE
[04:40] <Toma-> Whats the boot time ment to be like on ubuntu 7.04 live in qemu? fairly quick PC, are we talking a couple minutes? or like 20 minutes?
[04:40] <EkToBoT> im kidding
[04:40] <jubei_> guys I'm trying to make mISDN but I get "make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.15-28-server/build: No such file or directory.". I've got kernel sources for 2.6.15-28-server.
[04:40] <peaker> bulmer: It really surprised me that such a basic bug existed in ubuntu for so many months and years without being fixed. So it must mean I should fix it :)
[04:40] <peaker> though maybe I should upgrade to feisty first
[04:40] <EkToBoT> thanks bye bye
[04:41] <ferronica> Zewey: but K torrent is designed for KDE ...................
[04:41] <Zewey> ferronica: yeah :|
[04:41] <Zewey> ferronica: i couldn't find a gtk/gnome bittorrent client for dapper
[04:41] <ferronica> Zewey: but mine is GNOME
[04:42] <bulmer> peaker: umm wifi nic cards did not become cheap only until as of late, so thats why you get more people to use wifi now because its in-expensive devices now proliferating compare to say two years ago
[04:42] <Zewey> ferronica: oh wait. try "Freeloader"
[04:42] <PowerGene> hello, i've just installed Ubuntu 6.10, then updated the OS, and the updater downloaded more than 200Mb of security updates. But there is one packeage that seems is unreachable.
[04:42] <dyrne> Zewey: there is deluge
[04:42] <ferronica> Zewey: Is there any problem if i use KDE application for GNOME
[04:42] <dyrne> Zewey: python gtk
[04:43] <PowerGene> Here is the package with problem, this is on a clear install: W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openoffice.org/openoffice.org-core_2.0.4-0ubuntu5_i386.deb

[04:43] <bark> does anyone know if it's possible to add keybindings to move the mouse pointer using metacity?  with metacity itself or some other application?  example, I want ctrl-alt-<up arrow> to move the mousepointer X pixels upwards
[04:43] <Zewey> dyrne: but ferronica is on dapper, deluge wasn't in until feisty isn't it?
[04:43] <peaker> bulmer: Well, last 6 months wifi has become pretty common place and still the newest ubuntu has this basic problem
[04:43] <Zewey> ferronica: nope.
[04:43] <dyrne> ah no.  it would be a pain to install
[04:44] <peaker> also pda's are supported, but a metapackage for pda support is missing, as well as a GUI for starting/stopping the pda communications
[04:44] <peaker> so a noob would need howto's and stuff to use it, it took me a few hours to get my pda to work
[04:44] <ferronica> Zewey: so there is no problem if i use KDE in GNOME ?
[04:44] <bulmer> peaker boy you're deep into those things, im just in the periphery, i dont know all that stuff yet
[04:44] <xukun>  hi all. is there a newsreader client for linux to download from newsgroups?
[04:45] <Toma-> ferronica: http://burke.libbey.name/deluge-mirror/
[04:45] <lavid> xukun: thunderbird
[04:45] <Zewey> ferronica: no
[04:45] <ferronica> Toma: For what???
[04:45] <Toma-> ferronica: deluge for dapper
[04:45] <the_rampant> has anyone else read about dell switching to offer a preinstalled linux distribution of desktop pc's?
[04:45] <Zewey> ferronica: i use kde apps for writing my thesis. :P
[04:46] <MLimburg`AFKish> xukan: i use pan myself, but it's only quasi-good for binary stripping from newsgroups
[04:46] <the_rampant> I wonder if Ubuntu will be one of the options
[04:46] <xukun> lavid thanks, is't like or good as newsleecher and newsbinpro?
[04:47] <lavid> xukun: wouldn't know
[04:47] <lavid> xukun: if you really want those (i'm assuming they're windows apps), try them under wine
[04:47] <MLimburg`AFKish> xukun: there isn't an app as good as that in linux yet i hate to say
[04:47] <dddddddd> mtron: thanks for all the help, i'll give it a go
[04:47] <MLimburg`AFKish> xukun: yeah, what lavid said :) try em under wine
[04:47] <xukun> thanks guys
[04:48] <Zewey> the_rampant: i'm betting either ubuntu, or novell's suse. :P
[04:49] <MLimburg`AFKish> xukun: give pan a shot first though .. the filter system really does help, even if you have to click on each message to start the queue .. can't select a range of messages and autograb as far as I can see
[04:49] <the_rampant> The support network for Ubuntu is immense - surely that will count :) seems they are doing a survey to guage what people want...

[04:56] <LadyNikon> FD-Spuddy: do you know what version you have?
[04:56] <Zewey> sdac221x: there's a line in section "Device" called "Driver". you might have to chage it back to whatever it was

[04:56] <FD-Spuddy> But im getting 6.10
[04:56] <LadyNikon> thats not that old.
[04:56] <FD-Spuddy> 6.6 i think

[05:04] <hendrixski1> Spliffster, the error is that when I make a .ui file... myForm.ui ... it makes the .h all properly, but then when I create a main.cpp file it doesn't recognize myForm :-(

[05:15] <sharkp> hi to everybody
[05:15] <jrib> anto_: #ubuntu+1
[05:16] <Spliffster> hendrixski1: /list is the command you are looking for. try "/help list" because usage depends upon your client
[05:16] <Jan22> What is the keyboard shortcut to access the main menu when the muse dies (equivalent of Windows Ctrl+Esc)?
[05:16] <anto_> k
[05:16] <sharkp> Does Feisty directly read NTFS partitions?
[05:16] <Jan22> muse=mouse
[05:16] <hendrixski1> Spliffster, it tells me that there is no help available for that command :(
[05:16] <jrib> Jan22: alf-f1
[05:16] <hendrixski1> which is why I asked
[05:16] <Spliffster> Jan22: ALT+F1
[05:16] <Spliffster> Jan22: in gnome that is ... dunno for kde
[05:16] <sharkp> Will Feisty directly read NTFS partitions?
[05:17] <Jan22> Many thanks jrib and Spliffster, that worked.
[05:17] <SeveredCross> sharkp: Read, yes, write no.
[05:17] <Spliffster> hendrixski1: what irc client are you using ?
[05:17] <hendrixski1> Spliffster, XChat
[05:17] <sharkp> SeveredCross, thanx
[05:17] <SeveredCross> To write, you need fuse/ntfs-3g.
[05:17] <Spliffster> hmmm
[05:17] <sharkp> SeveredCross, I need to work with a liveCd on a NTFS partition
[05:17] <sharkp> how can I do?
[05:18] <Spliffster> hendrixski1: try "Window > Channe list" you have filter optiosn there
[05:18] <SeveredCross> sharkp: The LiveCD will read NTFS partitions, you just have to mount them.
[05:18] <addam1> i just upgraded to edgy, and nautalis quits unexpectedly
[05:18] <addam1> whats the deal ?
[05:18] <Spliffster> hendrixski1: aolso search fro troll or trolltech if you are looking for qt stuff
[05:18] <SeveredCross> First, you might need sudo mkdir /mnt/ntfs
[05:18] <SeveredCross> Then
[05:18] <SeveredCross> Try sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hdax /mnt/ntfs
[05:18] <sharkp> oh, so my problem is solved? After mounting the partition, Can I write on it?
[05:19] <SeveredCross> sharkp: You cannot write on it with the standard NTFS driver, you need to install fuse/ntfs-3g.
[05:19] <SeveredCross> !fuse | sharkp
[05:19] <ubotu> sharkp: Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[05:19] <SeveredCross> ^^
[05:19] <sharkp> So, I must install fuse...But Can I use it with a liveCD?
[05:19] <Spliffster> hendrixski1: and kde of course ... the kde devs know qt pretty well
[05:19] <SeveredCross> Yes.
[05:19] <hendrixski1> Spliffster, Thanks :-)  again
[05:19] <hendrixski1> good call
[05:19] <SeveredCross> You can install things on a LiveCD, using sudo apt-get
[05:19] <Spliffster> hendrixski1: yw
[05:20] <sharkp> SeveredCross, thanx
[05:20] <SeveredCross> They'll be installed with your system if you decide to install it to hard drive.
[05:20] <LususX> help mode
[05:20] <sharkp> SeveredCross, yes, but without installing anybody,can I use it?
[05:21] <sharkp> I don't want to install all ubuntu
[05:21] <sharkp> I want to work once with this partition
[05:21] <SeveredCross> Yes, you can use it without installing anything
[05:21] <sharkp> Ok
[05:21] <SeveredCross> Just open a terminal, type sudo apt-get install fuse and that should install the fuse driver.
[05:21] <sharkp> thanx, SeveredCross
[05:22] <sharkp> !fuse
[05:22] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[05:22] <SeveredCross> Then, mount NTFS by first creating a folder (sudo mkdir /mnt/ntfs) then mount with sudo mount -t fuse /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs
[05:22] <muddy> Hi all, I am having audio issues.....more like No audio.   I am a total newb so be easy with me.
[05:22] <SeveredCross> Assuming /dev/hda1 is your NTFS partition...Change that as needed.
[05:22] <sharkp> ok
[05:23] <sharkp> bye!

[05:30] <p_masho> chainlynx:   drag and drop
[05:30] <tkamppeter> I need as many reports as possible, to get the new HPLIP 1.7.3 into Feisty.
[05:30] <Spliffster> tkamppeter: oh i do not have feisty installed ... didn't you want to ask in #ubuntu+1 ?
[05:30] <bensode> heh yeah I'm happy as a clam with 6.10
[05:30] <tkamppeter> besnode, yes, if you cannot print to an HP printer, this is a bug.

[05:31] <bensode> tkamppeter : I've always used the generic laser4 driver seems to work on nearly any printer, HP or not
[05:31] <chainlynx> not sure, but on the command line if you have sufficient permissions you can use chmod
[05:31] <tkamppeter> besnode, but you must tell which model you have and how it is connected. Otherwise we have no chance to fix it.
[05:31] <elkbuntu> meep, please behave, and dont swear
[05:31] <Spliffster> bensode: inkjet printer need special hpdrivers .. that's the reason hplip exists
[05:31] <meep> heh - and on the day I wrote about CoC waving people :)
[05:31] <meep> the whole secretlondon thing :|
[05:31] <tkamppeter> besnode, so what is your problem? What does NOT work for you?
[05:32] <chainlynx> i'm assuming you have write permissions to these files, so chmod 744 <file> will give you all permissions and others read permission
[05:32] <bensode> Ahhhh inkjet ... eww I avoid them they are what I consider "retail" printers.  Basically a free printer you get with a cartridge purchase ;)
[05:32] <chainlynx> ha
[05:32] <bensode> tkamppeter : I don't have any problems with printing I don't use inkjets... I have a hp1320 that I use with my 6.x systems
[05:33] <tkamppeter> bensode, but HP's lasers also get extra functionality with HPLIP, as toner level read out for example
[05:33] <bensode> tkamppeter : I haven't found an HP laser in the last 5 years produced that I can't get that info from http://ip.to.printer
[05:33] <tkamppeter> bensode, so do the test on  https://launchpad.net/bugs/98520 with your HP LaserJet 1320.
[05:34] <kazim86> pdf pdf pdf.... can i have a faster program to read pdfs? or is it simply impossible on linux?
[05:34] <chainlynx> yeah you can download adobe reader
[05:34] <chainlynx> the same program that is used, ususally, on windows
[05:34] <bensode> kazim86 : ummm try xpdf that works lightning fast
[05:34] <kazim86> bensode: not "lightning"
[05:35] <tkamppeter> bensode, but by doing the test you will help other users, for example the ones who have their LaserJet on USB or Parallel and so do not have http://ip-of-printer/.

[05:35] <Spliffster> tkamppeter: is it sufficient to just apt-get update and then install hplip from the feisty repos ?
[05:36] <bensode> Cya around later ... back to work for me
[05:37] <tkamppeter> Spliffster, no, will have HPLIP 1.7.1 only then, the buggy version which I want to replace. The 1.7.3 you MUST download from http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/feisty/hplip/binary/, as I described.
[05:37] <tkamppeter> It only gets into the archives if enough users give their positive reports.
[05:37] <Spliffster> tkamppeter: ok .. thanx for the info
[05:38] <Spliffster> oh next time i'll RTFBR
[05:38] <tkamppeter> Spliffster, and it must be a 32-bit Feisty.
[05:38] <Spliffster> tkamppeter: you 32 here
[05:38] <robert_> hm
[05:38] <robert_> I'm trying to get oss to play nicely with alsa or esd
[05:38] <tkamppeter> Spliffster, I have both, but the packages are built on 32-bit.
[05:39] <Spliffster> tkamppeter: thanks to vmware i could also test the 64bit drivers ... but this would take soem time casue i'd have to set it up first
[05:39] <robert_> but I can't seem to get it to work properly
[05:39] <robert_> it keeps wanting to open /dev/dsp
[05:43] <mkrufky> is there any such tool that does the same as 'sed' , except that is treats all strings as plain text ... ie, will NOT try to evaluate regular expressions?
[05:43] <Spliffster> mkrufky: ever tried ex (aka vi) ?
[05:43] <KnowledgEngineer> hello
[05:43] <mkrufky> i want to do this, but the special chars ar farking me up:
[05:43] <mkrufky> sed -i s/"{\*\docvar {ST_DOC_ROUTING}{MSKCC-NEUROLOGY}}"/"{\*\docvar {ST_DOC_ROUTING}{MSKCC-NEUROL-}}{\*\docvar {ROUTING_SUFFIX}{$Service}}"/1 *.DOC
[05:44] <KnowledgEngineer> why in apache2.conf
[05:44] <KnowledgEngineer> IndexOptions FancyIndexing VersionSort NameWidth=*
[05:44] <KnowledgEngineer> do not have effect?
[05:44] <p_masho> any idead as my CD is readonly ?
[05:44] <chainlynx> mkrufky, grep?
[05:44] <mkrufky> Spliffster: hmm, i'm probably the only linux developer who doesnt like vi
[05:44] <p_masho> any idea why  my CD is readonly ?
[05:44] <alitrix> can somebody explain me, why my wireless isn't working in Kubuntu, but works fine in Kubuntu live-cd?
[05:44] <josue_m> hi, how to list the services a ubuntu box is running a turn off the unnecessary ones?
[05:44] <KnowledgEngineer> in #apache2 the people tall that ubuntu messed it!!!
[05:44] <chainlynx> oh, there's probably some flag you can set
[05:44] <Spliffster> mkrufky: well, i meant ex of course ... did i say vi ? :P
[05:44] <chainlynx> or rewrite the expression?
[05:44] <mkrufky> :-P
[05:44] <alitrix> it was working before, but after a new and clean kubuntu install, I lost it :(
[05:45] <mkrufky> grep will try to evaluate the regex, chainlynx, but i need to treat it all as plaintext
[05:46] <chainlynx> oh, so you're actually trying to match all of those backslashes and stuff?
[05:46] <dyrne> josue_m: look in /etc/init.d/  for the startup scripts. to disable do sudo update-rc.d -f scriptname remove
[05:46] <mkrufky> ugh, ex doesnt look user friendly either.... maybe i should just do GUI-based search and replace through gedit :-(
[05:46] <kane77> i'm planning to reinstall my dapper with feisty, however I'm kind of worried about grub, because installing grub where previous grub was messed up my mbr and I had to reinstall both OS's (win & ubuntu)...
[05:46] <kane77> is it safe to do it?
[05:46] <mkrufky> chainlynx: yes.... i need to keep those backslashed and brackets, etc. ....  this is an RTF document
[05:47] <chainlynx> i see
[05:47] <mkrufky> it's actually MSWORD rtf, even uglier....  but i cant help that
[05:47] <madhatter_> hey i tired changing my screen frequency but i messed up no i cant get onto linux im using a live cd nwo hwo can i change back the file i mesed up
[05:47] <Spliffster> mkrufky: maybe perl could help ... but i do not know much about perl
[05:47] <KnowledgEngineer> IndexOptions FancyIndexing VersionSort NameWidth=*
[05:47] <dandel> i'm looking to get the source package for qt-x11-free... anyone know how to use apt-get to get that source?
[05:47] <KnowledgEngineer> why this line have not effect ?
[05:47] <chainlynx> well, at the risk of your regex getting uglier, you can try escaping all the special characters
[05:47] <KnowledgEngineer> is a line from apache2.conf
[05:47] <dandel> nvr mind
[05:47] <mikebeecham> Hi there, does anyone know how I can play fullscreen video through the Clone aspect of Twinview?
[05:47] <madhatter_> hwo do i mount my linux hard drive in a live cd
[05:47] <dyrne> kane77: you should never have to reistall the os to fix grub. but yeah feisty is safe as far as writing to the mbr
[05:47] <mkrufky> yes, i tried to escape them all, and it got messier.....   and again... realize that my search phrase above is NOT a regular expression
[05:47] <KnowledgEngineer> the apache people tall me that it's not normal
[05:48] <chainlynx> right
[05:48] <kane77> dyrne, thx that's what I wanted to know.. off to install grub :D
[05:48] <mikebeecham> #twinview
[05:48] <mkrufky> maybe i'll just add a "dummy text mode" to sed
[05:48] <madhatter_> anybody know
[05:48] <kane77> dyrne, *err.. feisty
[05:48] <mkrufky> ...make it an option to turn off regular expressions
[05:48] <chainlynx> yeah, try looking for some sed flag in the manpage
[05:48] <chainlynx> maybe it has that functionality already
[05:48] <dyrne> kane77: ;)
[05:48] <mkrufky> thats what i was hoping for, but couldnt find any such option
[05:49] <madhatter_> hwo do i acess my linux hard drive in a live cd
[05:49] <mkrufky> mount it, madhatter_ ... 'man mount'
[05:49] <Spliffster> mkrufky: do i understand you right ... you need a primitive string replace function right ?
[05:49] <mkrufky> Spliffster: exactly
[05:50] <madhatter_> whats the command
[05:50] <mkrufky> Spliffster: it must NOT try to evaluate what it thinks is a regular expression
[05:50] <madhatter_> all that i tried didnt work
[05:50] <mkrufky> madhatter_: 'mount' is the command, 'man mount' will give you documentation
[05:50] <michup> hi, ive question, how to convert flash swf files to avi or mpeg format?
[05:50] <madhatter_> what
[05:50] <Spliffster> mkrufky: can you assume that perl is available ?
[05:51] <mkrufky> perl is available, yes
[05:51] <mkrufky> i just need to do this to nine files....
[05:51] <Spliffster> mkrufky: sounds like a perl one liner to me
[05:51] <madhatter_> mkrufky i dont understand you
[05:51] <madhatter_> whats man mount
[05:51] <mkrufky> i believe that you're correct, Spliffster ...  i was just hoping sed would do it
[05:51] <chainlynx_> madhatter: man mount is a command on the command line
[05:52] <mkrufky> madhatter_: please type 'man mount' in your shell, and the question will answer itself
[05:52] <chainlynx_> enter "man mount" in a terminal (without the quotes)
[05:52] <madhatter_> k
[05:52] <Spliffster> mkrufky: ok ... i do not know sed well ... so huh
[05:52] <IcemanV9> what the heck?! is there a way to increase the buffer for Totem?? i am trying to play quicktime movie trailer.
[05:52] <mkrufky> 'sall good... thanks anyway, Spliffster
[05:52] <michup> how to convert flash swf-files to avi or mpeg format? some suggest programs?
[05:52] <mkrufky> i'll write a 1-liner function

[05:56] <jubei_> guys what can I do about this: "/lib/modules/2.6.15-28-server/build: No such file or directory" ?
[05:56] <madhatter_> what should i do
[05:56] <kashogi> ok
[05:56] <madhatter_> i cant figure out what command to use
[05:57] <Spliffster> mkrufky: if you have mysql installed, then there is a general purpose replace utility in /usr/bin/replace
[05:57] <dyrne> kashogi: your router needs to forward port 22 to your ssh servers ip address like 192.168.1.3 that should be it
[05:57] <kashogi> ok am in 192
[05:58] <madhatter_> what command should i use to mount my hda1
[05:58] <thesilentw> !gparted
[05:58] <ubotu> GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[05:58] <vaizard> hello someone could help me , i'd want to open an application always with the same program , do u know how to fix it?
[05:58] <cefx> what's the best way to change your root mysql password?
[05:58] <cefx> !mysql
[05:58] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[05:58] <kashogi> where do i find option for port forwarding in dlink
[05:59] <madhatter_> mkrufky what should i do
[05:59] <mkrufky> madhatter_: sorry, i was afk
[05:59] <mkrufky> madhatter_: is it a ide hard drive, or a sata hard drive, or scsi?  or what?
[05:59] <madhatter_> ide
[05:59] <mkrufky> Spliffster: thanks... trying that now
[05:59] <frojnd> helo, what program is good to setuo ftp sever on ubuntu
[06:00] <mkrufky> madhatter_: what livecd is it?
[06:00] <frojnd> setuo=setup
[06:00] <madhatter_> an old ubuntu one with ophcrak on it
[06:01] <mkrufky> eh, i dont have mysql on this box, nor do i have 'replace' ....  i think i'll just write the 1-liner perl script and get it over with :-P
[06:01] <vaizard> hello someone could help me plz , i'd want to open an application always with the same program , do u know how to fix it?
[06:01] <dyrne> kashogi: is this a wireless router?
[06:01] <mkrufky> madhatter_: recent ubuntu livecds automount all hard drives, afaik
[06:01] <kashogi> no wired
[06:01] <madhatter_> k
[06:01] <madhatter_> so i should just boo the newest one
[06:01] <madhatter_> brb
[06:01] <sacater> vaizard: yes, rght-click the file, choose 'open with', then tick the always button
[06:01] <baktaah_> Anyone know how to add users to the left side of the XChat window?
[06:01] <dyrne> kashogi: oh. i was just going to recommend you lock it down better.  youll have to google ive never had a dlink
[06:02] <dandel> hmm... where does ubuntu put the  pool directory 0o
[06:02] <mkrufky> madhatter_: but, assuming that the running kernel contains the correct filesystem drivers that your hard drive is using, the all you should have to do it something liek this:
[06:02] <chainlynx_> how is perl going to be different from sed?  it seems that either way you're going to have to end up \-escaping everything (although I grant that perl may have something to make this more succint)
[06:02] <mkrufky> oh, he's gone
[06:02] <kashogi> ok thanks
[06:02] <mkrufky> chainlynx_: my easy way out is to just write this silly script in windows (yuck)
[06:03] <frojnd> helo, what program is good to setuo ftp sever on ubuntu
[06:03] <Jinx_Dojo> investigating
[06:03] <vaizard>  sacater i cant see always button

[06:04] <sacater> vaizard: it should be there
[06:04] <chainlynx_> er scuse me... what sacater said
[06:04] <frojnd> sacater: ok
[06:05] <vaizard> hmm isnt there anotehr way ?
[06:05] <baktaah_> I just updated my Ubuntuinstallation, anyone know how to get red of the other kernel in the Grub, there are two of them, one .10 and other .11 ( I assume .11) is the latest
[06:05] <elgilbert01> hola
[06:05] <sacater> vaizard: ask someone else, thats the only way i know of
[06:06] <thesilentw> is there a way to make a bootloader that simply shows 2 items, 1 for my vista and 1 for my winxp, both already installed but lost somehow
[06:06] <elgilbert01> hello
[06:06] <mkrufky> baktaah_: you can 'apt-get remove' the old kernel package
[06:06] <vaizard> like change something in system , to always  , eg,mp3 opens with real player
[06:06] <mikebeecham> Can anyone tell me how I can play fullscreen videos on the Clone section of Twinview?
[06:06] <baktaah_> mkrufky: wich one is the old kernel package, and how do I find out?
[06:06] <mkrufky> well, do this first:
[06:06] <mkrufky> uname -r
[06:06] <mkrufky> that is the CURRENT kernel
[06:07] <mkrufky> most likely, something like 2.6.20-blahblah-13
[06:07] <baktaah_> perhaps I should restart the system first, the current is .10... I guess the new one is .11
[06:07] <Jowi> thesilentw, ...is ubuntu installed on that disk? if so use grub, if not 1. use windows bootloader 2. ask in a windows channel how. :)
[06:07] <mkrufky> you need to remove kernel-image-2.6.20-blahblah-whatever old one
[06:07] <depper> Just do 'dpkg -l | grep linux-image' and remove whichever you aren't using. :V
[06:07] <thesilentw> jowi, ubuntu is on vmware virtual drive inside the vista :(
[06:07] <michup> someone try to convert swf-files to mpeg or avi format?
[06:07] <mkrufky> baktaah_: do what depper said -- it's much better advice
[06:08] <Jowi> thesilentw, so you should use the windows boot loader.
[06:08] <Lattyware> OK, I need some help. I have an ubuntu install, I recently moved hard drives around (physically) now it won't boot. I made a new install on another drive and am running of that. The old install fails to boot, getting a tiny way along the loading bar, then crashing when trying to do a modprobe. Can anyone help me?
[06:08] <baktaah_> mkrufky: all it does is saying wich one is the old one
[06:08] <baktaah_> apt-get remove  [insert kernel image here]  =
[06:08] <Lattyware> (The drive is fine, I have mounted it in this install and everything is correct)
[06:08] <thesilentw> jowi, i tryed to install it outside, but it made both ext3 and swap crazy and my 140gb documents partition with them :((((
[06:08] <nox-Hand> Hey
[06:08] <nox-Hand> On teamspeak, what do I set as output?
[06:09] <thesilentw> jowi, i think that if i can at least get my windows back, i can burn gparted into a cd and maybe get my documents back
[06:09] <Rootweiller> problem with ubuntu 7.04
[06:09] <thesilentw> jowi, so, how do i install that bootloader ?
[06:10] <Jowi> thesilentw, you need to ask that in a windows channel. I haven't used windows for quite some time.
[06:10] <thesilentw> jowi, whats the windows channel ? #windows ?
[06:10] <harry_> !ubotu
[06:10] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots

[06:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:11] <Jowi> thesilentw, ##windows i think
[06:11] <thesilentw> jowi, a guy, dont remember its name, yesterday gave me a super boot disk with grub, but it made it even worse :(
[06:11] <harry_> I am not sure whether my video card is ati or nvidia
[06:11] <thesilentw> jowi, ok, thx for the channel, gona ask for help there
[06:12] <vignesh> Does the current daily build include Xorg 7.2 ?

[06:18] <zany_zebra> can anyone tell me what sort of rpm a good hard drive run at?
[06:18] <mkrufky> (12:07:29) depper: Just do 'dpkg -l | grep linux-image' and remove whichever you aren't using. :V
[06:18] <Jowi> madhatter349, change Vertrefresh value-value to: VertRefresh 60
[06:18] <zany_zebra> what the idea rpm is
[06:18] <madhatter349> i wont let me change the freq in prefs
[06:18] <baktaah> mkrufky:  I restarted thats Why I asked :) if u could scroll up that would be great :)

[06:19] <Jowi> madhatter349, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:19] <madhatter349> im there
[06:19] <madhatter349> there is no VertRefresh 60

[06:21] <chainlynx_> no, just /opt
[06:21] <Jowi> madhatter349, ok, add (without quotes) this under DPMS line: VertRefresh 60
[06:22] <Jowi> madhatter349, V and R are capital letters
[06:22] <mikebeecham> chainlynx_: yer a star mate!!!!
[06:22] <madhatter349> k
[06:22] <madhatter349> now what save
[06:22] <jubei_> guys a build fails with "/lib/modules/2.6.15-28-server/build: No such file or directory". I recently installed a new server image "2.6.15-28-server" from apt-get. Do I need to do something so that all modules are ok?
[06:22] <madhatter349> jowi should we add a Horizontal scan range
[06:22] <Smilez> anyone know if I can extract a .dmg file in linux? or something that will rawrite the image onto a HDD?
[06:23] <michaelpo> how do i import evolution emails into thunderbird?
[06:23] <Jowi> madhatter349, save and restart Xorg (ctrl-alt-backspace). you can add a HorizSync if you wish and know its values. like "HorizSync 30-65"
[06:24] <madhatter349> why didnt we do between got vertical
[06:24] <Jowi> madhatter349, I don't understand your question
[06:24] <madhatter349> like VertRefresh 56-76
[06:25] <Jowi> madhatter349, because you wanted 60
[06:25] <madhatter349> k
[06:25] <madhatter349> np
[06:25] <Smilez> Anybody .DMG file -> write directly to HDD?
[06:25] <mkrufky> baktaah: mplayer
[06:25] <madhatter349> how do i resrt xorg
[06:26] <r00tintheb0x> ctrl+alt+delete madhatter349
[06:26] <baktaah> mkrufky:  yeah but ehm, I asked how do I found out what kernels I have so I can remove the old one
[06:26] <r00tintheb0x> wait
[06:26] <r00tintheb0x> ctrl+alt+backspace
[06:26] <mkrufky> madhatter349: CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE
[06:26] <Jowi> too late r00tintheb0x
[06:26] <dandel> lol.
[06:26] <dyrne> Smilez: well assuming its just an image dd if=file.dmb of=/dev/partition
[06:26] <Jowi> hopefully he will be back
[06:26] <dandel> well that's goin to cause a system file check on him.
[06:27] <madhatter349> when i switched resolutions it still says 75 and flickers
[06:27] <mkrufky> baktaah: (for the 3rd time)  (12:07:29) depper: Just do 'dpkg -l | grep linux-image' and remove whichever you aren't using. :V
[06:27] <Smilez> dyrne: I can just dd if=myimage.dwg of=/dev/usbdrive or whatever?
[06:27] <dandel> i'm working on fixing a small bug with qt, i just gotta ask what is a good default dpi to automatically force if it is a negative value in xdpyinfo?
[06:27] <baktaah> mkrufky:  thanks =)
[06:27] <baktaah> mkrufky:  I restarted
[06:27] <mkrufky> :-)
[06:27] <graabein> hi, i have a different font size in firefox than say xchat. is there a hidden config-file somewhere?
[06:27] <dandel> yea your user directory, graabein.
[06:27] <madhatter349> jowi this is what i saved before Section "Monitor"
[06:27] <madhatter349> 	Identifier	"DELL E173FP"
[06:27] <madhatter349> 	Option		"DPMS"
[06:27] <madhatter349> 	VertRefresh 60
[06:27] <madhatter349> 	HorizSync 31-80
[06:28] <dyrne> Smilez: i believe so. this is an hfs image? a mac thing or something? you might be able to mount it as well like sudo mount -t hfs -o loop myImage.dmg /macdisk
[06:28] <dandel> just press ctrl+h in that dir and you should find it.
[06:28] <graabein> dandel, do you know the file name?
[06:28] <dandel> oh and note that is through nautalis.
[06:28] <Jowi> madhatter349, looks good
[06:28] <Jowi> madhatter349, you're sure you restarted Xorg?
[06:28] <Smilez> dyrne:  Its the apple tv image. im trying to put it on an external usb
[06:28] <graabein> dandel, i am on xfce (xubuntu) btw
[06:28] <madhatter349> why does it still flicker and still say 75
[06:28] <dandel> go to this dir: $HOME/.mozilla
[06:29] <madhatter349> ya i had to relogin
[06:29] <madhatter349> i hit cntrl alt delete
[06:29] <h4lfl1ng> hello!
[06:29] <madhatter349> i mean backspace
[06:29] <nesan> dandel: Xfce's mcs-manager should have an option to set gtk font sizes and type.
[06:29] <mikebeecham> How do I play fullscreen videos on the clone side of Twinview?
[06:29] <Jowi> madhatter349, don't know. it should use 60.
[06:29] <dandel> you gotta set dual screen mode
[06:29] <h4lfl1ng> can anyone help me get my audio working?
[06:29] <dyrne> Smilez: dd should work. as for the abliity to read the file format that will depend on the OS
[06:30] <nesan> h4lfl1ng: Sound cards are always fun, what kind you trying to get to cooperate? :V
[06:30] <Jowi> madhatter349, I have forced several setups this way to use 60Hz
[06:30] <h4lfl1ng> its a laptop with an ac' 97
[06:30] <madhatter349> under system prefrences screen prefrences it still says refresh rate 75
[06:30] <nesan> Ah, onboard. Any idea what chipset or what kind of mainboard it's using?
[06:30] <mikebeecham> dandel: I have set twinview as clone, but within Windows lets you play videos fullscreen.  This means that my clone is going to my TV, and I can watch movies on there...I just dont know how to set it up in Linux
[06:31] <h4lfl1ng> intel 82801db
[06:31] <Jowi> madhatter349, try in a terminal "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" to make sure.
[06:31] <dandel> what video card maker?
[06:31] <dandel> that will help because i gotta know so i can pull up the right info.
[06:31] <mikebeecham> dandel: nVidia 7600GT
[06:31] <Smilez> dyrne: thanks!
[06:31] <nixnoob> anyone kno how to fix soft lockup on cpu#0 during boot from live cd?
[06:32] <Smilez> im going to give it a try right now... i got spare drives all over
[06:32] <dandel> this is for gentoo, but the same proccess applies... http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors
[06:32] <graabein> nesan, i do change font in mcs-manager but firefox uses something else
[06:32] <fuzzy_logic> hello ubuntu brothers!
[06:32] <mikebeecham> dandel: I have my dual monitor setup..I just cant seem to play a video at Full Screen on my TV
[06:32] <graabein> hi how do you do?
[06:32] <fuzzy_logic> great..
[06:32] <dyrne> Smilez: if you see smoke run
[06:32] <fuzzy_logic> just wondering something..
[06:32] <Smilez> :D
[06:32] <robdeman> does ubuntu 6.10 edy support Webmin?
[06:33] <dandel> mikebeecham, run this in the command line... echo $DISPLAY
[06:33] <dandel> you gotta tell it to use the display that's the tv
[06:33] <kane77> how can I have one (wifi) interface to be the default "out" (internet) interface and use the eth0 only for LAN? in dapper there is a choice of default, however not in feisty...
[06:33] <fuzzy_logic> i have ubuntu with gnome.. but i want to use kde instead.. without installing a fresh kubuntu installation.. is that possible?
[06:33] <nesan> graabein: Firefox has its own separate font controls, check Edit > Preferences > Content.
[06:33] <dandel> on mine i told vlc in advanced options to use :0.1
[06:33] <mikebeecham> within Terminal?
[06:33] <dandel> yes.
[06:33] <DjViper> robdeman: you need apache+php
[06:33] <mikebeecham> I did...it came back with......sDISPLAY!
[06:33] <madhatter349> jowi still says 75
[06:34] <fuzzy_logic> but will i have any problems? because kde is not 'native' ubuntu
[06:34] <dandel> mikebeecham, type it exactly as i had.
[06:34] <h4lfl1ng> nesan, can you help me?
[06:34] <dandel> because s != $ int hat statement
[06:34] <nesan> Well, now that I think about it. Those settings are just for rendering pages.
[06:34] <robdeman> DjViper: I have that
[06:35] <mikebeecham> dandel: ahhh sorry..... :0.0
[06:35] <nesan> h4lfl1ng: Don't think so, looking around on ALSA's docs over the chipset. Not much experience with onboard audio, tbh.
[06:35] <dandel> run it on the other montior too.
[06:35] <dandel> it should be different if you have multiple monitors setup right.
[06:35] <dandel> it should be :0.1
[06:35] <Jowi> madhatter349, I've never encountered that before. maybe it's the driver, maybe something else. you might want to try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but that's my last advice. and make sure you backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf before you do just in case.
[06:35] <dandel> if it's on your primary card.
[06:35] <DjViper> robdeman: no wait, you dont need php
[06:35] <mikebeecham> dandel: sorry, but I've only been using linux a week
[06:35] <mikebeecham> how do I run it on the other monitor?
[06:35] <madhatter349> jowi i tried taht and messed up
[06:35] <graabein> nesan, i mean the font in the menus and dialogboxes of firefox, not the of the web pages
[06:36] <mikebeecham> and it's not a monitor...it's my TV
[06:36] <h4lfl1ng> can anyone help me out with my sound?
[06:36] <dandel> can you move the curser to the other monitor?
[06:36] <nixnoob> anyone kno how to fix soft lockup on cpu#0 during boot from live cd?
[06:36] <mikebeecham> no, becuase I have set them up as a clones
[06:36] <kane77> i may be back as I'll be trying to reinstall my dapper with feisty :P
[06:36] <madhatter349> why is the only refresh rate set to 75
[06:36] <dyrne> h4lfl1ng: what is the problem exactly?
[06:36] <mikebeecham> dandel: my TV is just viewing what is on my desktop
[06:36] <h4lfl1ng> just no sound
[06:36] <nesan> graabein: Yeah, what I swayed my head over a minute ago. Would assume those are inherited from whatever fonts you have set using .gtkrc-2.0 (or whatever Xfce's mcs-manager has).
[06:37] <baktaah> does .asx files work with mplayer, because they dont for me :(
[06:37] <madhatter349> i ahve a Intel 82865G Graphics Controller
[06:37] <nesan> baktaah: .asx is just a audio stream platlist, right?
[06:37] <dandel> mike, open up your xorg.conf file
[06:37] <Warbo> baktaah: asx is a container isn't it? If so then it depends what's in it (or am I thinking of asf?)
[06:37] <robdeman> DjViper: ok I have that too but anyway, so it is supported then
[06:37] <baktaah> nesan: no..
[06:37] <baktaah> Warbo: movies
[06:38] <nadd> hello, if grub failed to install,  how could i continue installation ? do i have to start all over again ? it finished copying the filesystem, anything else left after creating grub ?
[06:38] <nesan> If it's anything like .asf files, open it with a text editor and use the literarl address it goes to...
[06:38] <fuzzy_logic> anyone help plz?
[06:38] <mikebeecham> dandel: ok...
[06:38] <graabein> nesan, okay cause i used to have gnome but now i have xfce but with the same user settings (home-directory)
[06:38] <dandel> tell me what this option says... "TwinViewOrientation"
[06:38] <dandel> it should be clone
[06:38] <dandel> if it is, change it to rightof
[06:38] <Warbo> baktaah: I mean the codec, and whether it is actual data or just a stream address
[06:38] <mikebeecham> dandel: Clone
[06:38] <dandel> then save the file.
[06:38] <Warbo> baktaah: w32codecs is probably an option...
[06:38] <graabein> nesan, what gtk* does xfce use do you think?
[06:38] <dyrne> h4lfl1ng: 'cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp&'  then: 2 things 1. check the setting in gnome panel so make sure using correct device and alsa  2. run alsamixer in term and adjust volume
[06:38] <dandel> reboot and come back.
[06:38] <soundray> fuzzy_logic: install the kubuntu-desktop package.
[06:38] <baktaah> Warbo: thanks man
[06:38] <Warbo> !codecs

[06:38] <baktaah> Warbo:  gonna try it
[06:38] <dandel> if it worked right you will have the monitor blank at the gdm screen.
[06:39] <dyrne> h4lfl1ng: hearing a hellish static is good
[06:39] <dandel> the one that is your tv.
[06:39] <dyrne> !sound
[06:39] <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).

[06:39] <mikebeecham> dandel: ok?  and then what?
[06:39] <madhatter349> jowi and i idea if its a problem with my graphic card
[06:39] <nesan> graabein: GTK+ 2.x
[06:39] <dandel> install vlc
[06:39] <mikebeecham> dandel: it's already installed
[06:39] <dandel> now or after the reboot don't matter
[06:39] <dandel> just open up the preferences
[06:39] <nesan> Oh, you were asking for the rc file.
[06:39] <budluva> i have a quick question, if im formatting an hdd to use in a usb enclosure, what is the best filesystem to use if i want to swap between linux/windows?
[06:39] <h4lfl1ng> dyrne: says device or resource busy
[06:40] <mikebeecham> dandel: ok
[06:40] <dandel> then under video
[06:40] <nesan> If it isn't entirely ignored, it'd be .gtkrc-2.0.
[06:40] <Warbo> budluva: Unless you need file +4GB then FAT32
[06:40] <mikebeecham> dandel: yes?
[06:40] <dyrne> h4lfl1ng: leads me to believe its just a point and click setting in gnome. see the above links. good luck
[06:40] <dandel> output modules
[06:40] <soundray> fuzzy_logic: got me?
[06:40] <samalex> I'm about to intall the deb package via dpkg, but is there anyway to verify I have all the dependencies installed first?
[06:40] <mikebeecham> dandel: yup
[06:40] <dandel> set display to this exactly:  :0.1
[06:40] <nixnoob> YEY CPU LOCKUP
[06:40] <dandel> it's an advanced option.
[06:40] <samalex> ubuntu doesn't seem to have webmin on the default repositories.
[06:40] <budluva> Warbo: windows wont read ext3 eh?
[06:40] <gerhard> hey
[06:41] <mikebeecham> dandel: under what subsection?
[06:41] <gerhard> how do i convert ogg to mp3?
[06:41] <budluva> Warbo: so im stuck with file sizes smaller than 4gb, so no dvd transfers :P
[06:41] <dandel> you want to set that option under all of em.
[06:41] <soundray> budluva: it will, if you install ext2fsd
[06:41] <dandel> that way it's setup for later.
[06:41] <dandel> if you change the module your using.
[06:41] <dandel> and click save.
[06:41] <nesan> webmin's on the universe repos, samalex.
[06:41] <ikonia> I thought webmin  had been removed
[06:41] <mikebeecham> dandel: what text box should I be putting that under?
[06:41] <Warbo> budluva: It can, using crazy third party drivers that I have never tried because I'm not on Windows, so you could use them but I won't be able to offer any help for them personally
[06:41] <fuzzy_logic> soundray: yes
[06:41] <dandel> close out, and reboot, and it should be working
[06:41] <Arghetlam> Okay, so, my 6.10 server's throwin' me for a loop. Perhaps you can help.
[06:41] <nesan> Yeah, it was dropped after Breezy.
[06:41] <dandel> the ones witht he word display
[06:41] <dandel> it's the top option.
[06:41] <thierry> joing #truevision
[06:42] <soundray> gerhard: best not at all, because you lose sound quality. If you still want to, go via the wav format.
[06:42] <jarhed> hey all
[06:42] <dandel> it says "X11 display"
[06:42] <Warbo> budluva: Or of course you could do it the other way around and get ntfs3g for Ubuntu
[06:42] <gerhard> dont matter
[06:42] <gerhard> is only a language course no music
[06:42] <budluva> Warbo: gparted wont format in ntfs
[06:42] <jarhed> can anyone tell me where my icon information is stored for a usb drive?
[06:42] <mikebeecham> dandel: done and saved...will be back in a mo!
[06:42] <jarhed> for example a .DS_Store on mac does it
[06:43] <dandel> wait
[06:43] <dandel> test vlc out real quick
[06:43] <dandel> if it didn't work/crashes reboot and try again.
[06:43] <dumezil> hey i just installed beryl and it works great except for one thing, i have no borders to my windows and no close, minimize, etc buttons, and when i launch the terminal, i don't see anything but a blank white box, and when i type, nothing.  i can type exit and it closes, but i don't see exit
[06:43] <madhatter349> Jowi i downloaded the graphic drivers from intels website hwo do i install them
[06:43] <nesan> You could try a generic Debian pkg of webmin or try usermin.
[06:43] <dandel> on testing vlc
[06:43] <Arghetlam> Okay, so, my 6.10 server's throwin' me for a loop. Perhaps you can help.
[06:43] <Warbo> jarhed: Depends on the theme. Usually /usr/share/icons/<them name>/dev/ or, if you have installed your theme yourself, <your home>/.icons/<theme name>/dev/
[06:43] <mzracer360> I accidentally chmod'ed a wrong folder, what is the chmod command to set it back to these permissions: drwxr-xr-x
[06:43] <shirish> guys anybody here who knows about the 915resolution fix?
[06:44] <soundray> !elaborate | Arghetlam
[06:44] <ubotu> Arghetlam: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel)
[06:44] <nesan> Well, dang, usermin isn't even on the repos anymore.
[06:44] <Arghetlam> I installed Gnome, and then I had to downgrade to create another machine. Now, whenever I try to boot, it promply freezes at the splash.
[06:44] <soundray> mzracer360: chmod 755 foldername
[06:44] <mzracer360> ok thanks
[06:44] <dyrne> mzracer360: you can also use +w -w or -x etc instead of the number
[06:44] <jarhed> Warbo: How will it remember my icon if I take it to another computer?
 what graphic card u have
[06:44] <soundray> Arghetlam: how do you mean "downgrade to create another machine"?
[06:45] <budluva> does feisty use a new way of listing filesystems?
[06:45] <Arghetlam> Swapped the 2800 to a 2100.
[06:45] <soundray> budluva: ask in #ubuntu+1
[06:45] <soundray> Arghetlam: please, use my language.
[06:45] <budluva> im looking in my fstab, trying to mount this fat32 drive i just formatted, and they all show up as UUID's
[06:45] <Arghetlam> AMD 2800 to AMD 2100, that is.
[06:45] <mikebeecham> dandel: it plays, but there is a HUGE black border at the top, and I have lost a little of the widescreen, so some of the picture is cut off towards the right
[06:45] <dyrne> budluva: you can replace those with the old /dev/hda1 or whatever
[06:45] <Warbo> Each user gets to use the icons they prefer, the usb drive doesn't override that
[06:45] <dandel> it plays on that screen?
[06:45] <soundray> Arghetlam: both Athlon XPs?
[06:46] <shirish> madhatter349: hi there, it's a Intel Express 845 chipset
[06:46] <Arghetlam> Yeah.
[06:46] <dandel> wow, i didn't know itd work that way.
[06:46] <grant> anyone think they can help with wireless?
[06:46] <madhatter349> the 82865g one
[06:46] <dandel> i have mine set off of clone for fglrx ( ATI driver )
[06:46] <shirish> madhatter349: nope the 82845g one
[06:46] <dandel> is your tv 16x9 ratio?
[06:46] <nesan> Who was asking about wemin earlier?
[06:46] <madhatter349> o
[06:46] <mikebeecham> dandel: nope 4:3
[06:46] <nesan> Just now noticing there's a generic deb on the official site. lol
[06:46] <Arghetlam> Basic system stats - it's running an AMD 2100+, 768 megs of ram with a 30 GB HDD
[06:46] <dandel> set the source aspect ratio to 5:4
[06:46] <madhatter349> im also trying to get mine to work
[06:47] <gerhard> and how can i directly rip to mp3?
[06:47] <dandel> under the video options
[06:47] <mikebeecham> dandel: how do I do that?
[06:47] <mikebeecham> ok
[06:47] <dandel> and restart vlc
[06:47] <soundray> Arghetlam: at the grub menu, hit 'e' to edit the boot entry. Go to the kernel line, and edit it to remove 'quiet splash'. Then you should see more of what's going on as it fails.
[06:47] <dandel> or you can test things
[06:47] <kane77> how can I change the resolution on livecd of feisty? I cannot see the lower edge of the installer window...
[06:47] <shirish> madhatter349: I have made a detailed concerning all the steps I have taken till now at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2367180#post2367180
[06:47] <michup> someone know how to convert swf file to mpeg or avi format??
[06:47] <soundray> gerhard: with lame, for example
[06:47] <grant> I have used ndiswrapper and driverloader. but to no avail I can view all networks at half strength and none of them connect,
[06:47] <shirish> madhatter349: if u can see something I have left out or need to change something please lemme know.
[06:48] <master_> hi
[06:48] <FD-Spuddy> hi how are you - You are Speaking to Spuddys Bot
[06:48] <soundray> !lame | gerhard
[06:48] <ubotu> gerhard: lame: LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.96.1-2 (edgy), package size 260 kB, installed size 696 kB
[06:48] <mikebeecham> dandel: I cant find where to set it
[06:48] <gerhard> ok htx
[06:48] <gerhard> thx
[06:48] <thorat> is there any way to search the package repo via a web interface? (like http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_packages)
[06:48] <Warbo> thorat: packages.ubuntu.com
[06:48] <dumezil> can anyone help me with a beryl problem?
[06:48] <Arghetlam> Yeah, same thing as booting into failsafe - stops at: [42949374.110000]  checking if image is initramfs. . .  it is
[06:48] <addams> edgy eft is faster
[06:49] <Arghetlam> And then stops working.
[06:49] <kane77> what replaced xorg.conf in feisty?
[06:49] <thorat> Warbo: thanks, (I didn't find it via the website a while ago...)
[06:49] <soundray> kane77: it's still xorg.conf. Please ask feisty questions in #ubuntu+1
[06:49] <bigjohnto> ld.so.1: openvpn: fatal: libssl.so.0.9.8: open failed: No such file or directory ---> when trying to start openvpn and I have made env variable LD_LIBARY_PATH=/usr/local/ssl/lib:/usr/local/lib.... the "not found file" is located in /usr/local/ssl/lib..... any ideas why that might still be popping up?
[06:49] <shirish> kane77: all feisty discussions I guess are in #ubuntu+1
[06:49] <nesan> michup: Not sure, transcode utils might allow for.
[06:49] <kane77> soundray: ok thx..
[06:49] <K0smiC> hi all
[06:50] <K0smiC> :D
[06:50] <nesan> Could always dump the video stream using mplayer then transcode it however you want. Though that's probably beyond what most would want to bother. lol
[06:50] <Arghetlam> Is there a way to just boot directly to command line through grub?
[06:50] <soundray> Arghetlam: yes, recovery mode
[06:50] <nb-bob> is there a specific forum for edgy?
[06:50] <Warbo> Arghetlam: add the option "single" to the "kernel" line
[06:50] <master_> where are girls ?
[06:50] <soundray> nb-bob: this is it
[06:50] <nesan> master_: Outside.
[06:51] <nb-bob> cool thanks
[06:51] <dandel> scroll down on the vlc options for video ( says " source aspect ratio "
[06:51] <Arghetlam> Alright, I'll give that a shot.
[06:51] <dandel> i set that to 5:4 on my 4:3 tv so i didn't have the right and left side of the screen chopped off during video playback.
[06:51] <gerhard> i think it works now, i set sound juicer to use lame
[06:51] <michup> basicly im askin about convert swf to mpeg or avi is because i use pyvncviewer to capture my screen via vnc to swf format, but i wish to share my desktop records and better format would be mpeg or avi
[06:51] <addams> why does ubuntu jump from 6.10 to 7.0 with feisty fawn?
[06:52] <Arghetlam> I'm assuming a segmentation fault is a bad syntax error.
[06:52] <shirish> addams: it's 7.04
[06:52] <soundray> addams: it's a year.month scheme
[06:52] <unimatrix9> is a date 7.04
[06:52] <shirish> addams: Ubuntu releases are always with year.month thing
[06:52] <addams> oh
[06:52] <addams> how does windows do it?
[06:52] <shirish> addams: what do u mean?
[06:53] <unimatrix9> vista took 6 years
[06:53] <Arghetlam> Hmm.
[06:53] <addams> windows vista, what does that mean?
[06:53] <Arghetlam> I added option "single"
[06:53] <Warbo> addams: n+1 = n.setNewTheme(shiny)
[06:53] <Arghetlam> And it took me to the Ubuntu splash sscreen.
[06:53] <Arghetlam> Where it promptly freezes.
[06:53] <nesan> michup: Well, I know mencoder can do the job.
[06:54] <michup> nesan:where i can find mencoder?
[06:54] <cevizuser> slm millet
[06:54] <michup> nesan: is this in ubuntu repos?
[06:54] <nesan> michup: It's included when you install any 'mplayer' pkg.
[06:54] <michup> nesan: and how it works?
[06:54] <shirish> anybody done the 915resolution fix thing?
[06:54] <Arghetlam> Okay, so, my Kernel line looks like this:
[06:55] <igor> shirish i have
[06:55] <michup> nesan: i mean is this terminal program?
[06:55] <mikebeecham> dandel: getting better....is there anyway to keep the aspect normal on the monitor, but play it in 5:4 on the TV?
[06:55] <nesan> Yeah, it's text-only. Trying to think of a GTK/QT front-end you could use.
[06:55] <shirish> hi igor, I have tried & tried but haven't got it
[06:55] <soundray> Arghetlam: you have to provide more context. Boot without quiet and splash again. Make a screenshot with a camera if you can. Keep your descriptions to one line.
[06:55] <igor> you have done sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[06:55] <shirish> igor: I have made a detailed post at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2367180#post2367180 perhaps u can look at the post & tell me what I lack or have missed.
[06:55] <MidnightCowboy> Im trying to install flash9 plugin into my firefox in ubuntu Dapper... right now Im in the install process and Im in the terminal , I keep typing my install path /usr/lib/firefox/plugins but the installer keeps giving me a msg saying "please enter a valid installation path"... what am I doing wrong?
[06:56] <shirish> igor: I have already installed 915resolution as well as done 915resolution -l thing
[06:56] <nesan> There are a lot of front-ends to it, just trying to think of a general-purpose one for transcodes. Most are geared for DVD ripping and * --> MP4 as of late.
[06:56] <igor> k let me look at your post
[06:56] <Warbo> MidnightCowboy: I think you don't need the /plugins
[06:56] <jubei_> could somebody help with kernel/module issues? I'm getting "Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.15' then "WARNING: Symbol version dump /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.15/Module.symvers is missing; modules will have no dependencies and modversions.". What could be wrong?
[06:56] <addams> anyone running the feisty beta?
[06:56] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: it can't write to the path if you've started the installer without sudo.
[06:56] <shirish> igor: Thnx, ask/shoot away if u wanna know something more.
[06:56] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: and yes, you do need the /plugins (Warbo)
[06:56] <michup> nesan: mencoder - MPlayer's Movie Encoder, this what apt search find,
[06:56] <MidnightCowboy> Im doing it in ROOT
[06:57] <tortora> ciao
[06:57] <Terrasque> MidnightCowboy: kinky
[06:57] <Warbo> soundray: Oops
[06:57] <michup> nesan: but how it convert swf?
[06:57] <xenophoebic> anybody remember whats the command to eject the cdrom?
[06:57] <MidnightCowboy> lol terra
[06:57] <nb-bob> eject cdrom
[06:57] <MidnightCowboy> ha ha ha
[06:57] <dandel> not really, mike.
[06:57] <Terrasque> xenophoebic: eject?
[06:58] <nesan> michup: http://www.thisishull.net/showpost.php?p=977401&postcount=6 <-- Good example I found in a quick Google. lol
[06:58] <mikebeecham> dandel: well thanks for ALL the help mate...I'm so close now to how I want it
[06:58] <dandel> oh... i also forgot to tell you to change the default setup on the video window to unintegrate it.
[06:58] <Warbo> xenophoebic: sudo eject <devicename>
[06:58] <nesan> Wish I had a .swf file on hand to see if Avidemux will accept it or not. Only video editor I have on-hand.
[06:58] <michup> nesan: thx ill read it
[06:58] <mikebeecham> dandel: how again?
[06:58] <dandel> interfaces -> main interfaces -> wxwidgets
[06:58] <crippen> problem with VLC player, sound goes on and off all the time
[06:58] <dandel> uncheck the embed video window.
[06:59] <dandel> that will keep the vlc player in the main monitor.
[06:59] <michaelpo> how do i import evolution emails into thunderbird?
[06:59] <dandel> and make the output go tot he tv.
[06:59] <igor> Shirish when you boot to live cd does it show up at 1024x768?
[06:59] <Arghetlam> Great. Wonderful time for my digital camera to go AWOL.
[06:59] <gerhard> how do i change rights for my mp3 player, i cant write to it suddenly
[06:59] <gerhard> chmod doesnt seem to work
[06:59] <shirish> igor: nope when I boot the live CD it shows up in 640*480
[06:59] <igor> You shouldn't even need 915resolution for 1024x768
[07:00] <gerhard> i have a muvo 2
[07:00] <gerhard> creative
[07:00] <Diana> /msg nickserv identify USERNAME PASSWORD

[07:00] <nesan> gerhard: Oh man, those are adorable.
[07:01] <gerhard> nesan, why?
[07:01] <gerhard> it is great i know :-D
[07:01] <robert_> blah, how do I use NAS?
[07:01] <gerhard> it says sistema de solo lectura, must be write only
[07:02] <gerhard> but i used to write to it a lot of songs..
[07:02] <nesan> gerhard: No real reason, had a 4G one and thought it was just cute at the time. :V
[07:02] <th3margi> hey i cleared private data on ma gmail

[07:02] <th3margi> now ma gmail aint sendin mail
[07:02] <th3margi> help me
[07:02] <igor> shirish have you tried putting in the refresh sync rates in the Monitor section?
[07:02] <gerhard> nesan, i had to send it back to have it repaired and then i got a 5 gig one back :-D
[07:02] <MidnightCowboy> Soundray: I did the sudo this time and still got the same msg.... any ideas? as I said before Im logged in as root
[07:02] <shirish> lemme check
[07:03] <shirish> igor: lemme check
[07:03] <Warbo> gerhard: I only know manual mounting, not this new-fangled HAL stuff. I would umount it then mount it with "sudo mount <devicename> <mount point> -o uid=<your username>"
[07:03] <EdgEy> anyone know of a program similar to FRAPS for linux ? (it records what your monitor is displaying)
[07:03] <gerhard> all right
[07:03] <igor> shirish according to your post on the forums you didn't have any in there
[07:03] <Warbo> EdgEy: A 'screencast' maker?
[07:04] <gerhard> lol, now it is in use by some thing
[07:04] <nesan> Man, I remember when the Muvo2 first came out. Sold moutains because people wanted the Hitachi microdrives in 'em to resell to digital camera owners... was one of 'em.
[07:04] <EdgEy> Warbo, i think that is what i need yes. basically say, i'm playing a game and I want to record it to a video file :p
[07:04] <gerhard> so i cant umount it
[07:04] <gerhard> xD
[07:04] <shirish> igor: yup I dont have any, I'm actually using windows to chat, linux is unusable till I don't get 1024*768
[07:04] <SoftIce> hi, how do I install a package but deslect 1 of the dependencies?
[07:04] <SoftIce> apt-get install package --exclude packagename?
[07:04] <igor> try putting this in your monitor section
[07:04] <igor> HorizSync       28-64
[07:04] <igor> VertRefresh     43-75
[07:04] <Warbo> EdgEy: The most popular one is xvidcap (and its gui gvidcap) I don't think they're in Ubuntu, you might need to google
[07:04] <nesan> SoftIce: It's called a dependency for a reason...
[07:04] <SoftIce> nesan: goodnes stop being a smart ass
[07:04] <dandel> mikebeecham, did what i say about disabling the video embedding the window help at all?
[07:05] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: you should never login as root on an ubuntu system. That aside, try 'touch /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/test' to see if you can write to that directory at all.
[07:05] <shirish> igor: but these refresh rates are wrong, my refresh rates are better than this
[07:05] <SoftIce> I have qmail on my system I want imap ssl not postfix
[07:05] <nesan> SoftIce: It's so hard not to. :\
[07:05] <mrsno> hey, is there a polish ubuntu support channel?
[07:05] <tempsanity> mrsno unofficial one #ubuntu-pl
[07:05] <igor> you can try putting higher
[07:05] <tempsanity> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/control-center/+bug/61381
[07:05] <SoftIce> nesan: so you dont know how to ?
[07:05] <mrsno> thx
[07:05] <igor> most people can't see over 75hz
[07:05] <tempsanity> was anybody able to fix this bug? i cant use gnome
[07:05] <shirish> igor: did u see my DDCprobe thing
[07:05] <nixnoob> is it possible to blacklist a module from the boot line?
[07:05] <MidnightCowboy> soundray: I will try right now, as far as logging into root.... I know thats not good, but I had no choice.
[07:05] <nesan> Short of editing the pkg cache, nein.
[07:05] <shirish> igor: monitorrange: 30-71, 50-160
[07:06] <tempsanity> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/control-center/+bug/61381  - was anybody able to fix this? I could really use some help with that (cant use gnome - gnome settings error)
[07:06] <SoftIce> nesan: what about masking a package not allowing the instalation of it?
[07:06] <EdgEy> Warbo do you use xvidcap ?
[07:06] <nesan> What pkg and dep are we talkin' 'bout har?
[07:06] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: next time, try 'sudo -i'. If that works for you, lock your root account again with 'sudo passwd -l'
[07:06] <Warbo> EdgEy: I have done in the past
[07:06] <Chris1> hi, is there a command to close and reactivate the network connection?
[07:06] <Arghetlam> Screenshot: https://home.comcast.net/~pinstripedeva/PICT0020.JPG
[07:06] <igor> try putting those numbers into your xorg.conf
[07:06] <EdgEy> Warbo, does it capture smoothly? i need at least 20fps or so
[07:06] <Warbo> EdgEy: I have also used Istanbul and pyVNC2SWF
[07:07] <SoftIce> nesan: im installing imap-ssl and it wants to install postfix, i'm using imap-ssl for my qmail installation, so I dont want/need postfix installed. so before it messes with my mail setup I want to maks postfix from ebing installed
[07:07] <soundray> Chris1: you might try 'sudo invoke-rc.d networking restart' or 'sudo ifdown eth0 ; sudo ifup eth0' (assuming eth0 is the interface you want to cycle)
[07:07] <Warbo> EdgEy: Depends on the load your system is under. It is the best performing out of the ones I have used though
[07:07] <nesan> Hmm.
[07:07] <Warbo> EdgEy: I have seen loads of YouTube videos of games on Linux where the gvidcap GUI is being clicked on
[07:08] <Chris1> soundtray: thank you. I'll try the commands
[07:08] <shirish> igor: where actually should I put them in the Monitor Section?
[07:08] <Arghetlam> And that's where I booted without the "quiet" command and with option "single"
[07:08] <baktaah> Warbo, xvidcap is crap
[07:08] <K0smiC> blank boys I have a problem I can ask?
[07:09] <igor> Shirish here is what mine looks like: Section "Monitor"
[07:09] <igor>         Identifier      "Generic Monitor"
[07:09] <igor>         Option          "DPMS"
[07:09] <igor>         HorizSync       28-64
[07:09] <igor>         VertRefresh     43-60
[07:09] <igor> EndSection
[07:09] <MidnightCowboy> soundray: I did the "touch" thing... not sure what that command is for but I looked in the plugins dir and there is the word test in the dir now....
[07:09] <soundray> Arghetlam: Does 'Ctrl-Alt-F1' do anything at this point?
[07:09] <mikebeecham> dandel: I missed what you meant by that, would you mind repeating it about the disabling video embedding
[07:09] <avinash240> I am running kubuntu Feisty with an nvidia fx 5200 with a SamSung SyncMaster 997df, I ran dpkg-reconfigure to get a basic xorg.conf file with the nvidia drivers enabled..however when I start up my xserver the refresh rate it is running at is horrible..86hz which shows up really poorly on this monitor i know it will do 1024x768@100, I've edited the xorg.conf file to reflect that in a modeline setup..but for some reason it doesn't seem to be
[07:09] <Warbo> baktaah: Well pyVNC2SWF forced me to run a seperate X server, connect to it from in a chroot, then afterwards export the video as thousands of bitmaps which I had to convert to PNG then compile into an Xvid with mencoder. That was NOT a happy day....
[07:09] <Arghetlam> Soundray: Negative.
[07:09] <koper> I accidentally dropped an image on the panel instead of the deleted items folder and now the image is in the panel, how do I remove it?
[07:10] <tempsanity> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/control-center/+bug/61381 any help :( ?\
[07:10] <baktaah> Warbo  hahaha so pwned :)
[07:10] <baktaah> Warbo  still xvidcap will lag ur computer alot
[07:10] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: it just creates an empty file if there wasn't any. You can remove it again now. Give me a minute to think about your installer problem.
[07:10] <Arghetlam> Soundray: As a matter of fact, the lights on my keyboard no longer light up. It froze up tight.
[07:10] <nesan> Well, SoftIce. What little I know about the deb format is there is two archives compressed inside, one holding control information that lists dependencies. You could try manually editing it and installing manually via dpkg/gdebi.
[07:10] <K0smiC> I have installed ubuntu on mine laptop and possess one audio card Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Audio Definition Controller
[07:11] <nesan> Should be control.tar.gz.
[07:11] <shirish> igor: did tht, now how to make sure tht 915resolution kicks in first before the gdm kicks in?
[07:11] <dandel> mikebeecham, it's under interface > main interfaces > wxwidgets
[07:11] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: are you on amd64?
[07:11] <dandel> mikebeecham, just uncheck the checkbox beside the option,  embed video
[07:11] <mikebeecham> done
[07:11] <igor> it should automatically
[07:11] <MidnightCowboy> negative soundray
[07:11] <mikebeecham> dandel: done...not sure what it does
[07:12] <tdn> I have trouble waking up from hibernate on my laptop. I have a Thinkpad T42. I am using LUKS, is this of any importance? I have more information about the problem here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/98680.
[07:12] <igor> try rebooting now
[07:12] <shirish> ok then, have to leave u for now, would go to linux now & see if it works
[07:12] <soundray> Arghetlam: have you tried any boot options, other than single? pci=noacpi might be one to try, and acpi=off if there's no other way
[07:12] <soundray> Arghetlam: btw, have you installed a CPU cooler?
[07:12] <dandel> save and restart vlc
[07:12] <mikebeecham> dandel: brb
[07:12] <dandel> and you will the video on the tv only
[07:12] <Arghetlam> Soundray: Yes; standard stock AMD with Arctic Silver.
[07:12] <dandel> with vlc on your destop
[07:13] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: are there any other files in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ ?
[07:13] <MidnightCowboy> yes
[07:13] <mikebeecham> dandel: gotcha
[07:13] <MidnightCowboy> one
[07:13] <nesan> SoftIce: Another idea would be to use a debtags-edit, but I have _no_ experience in.
[07:13] <soundray> Arghetlam: could it still be overheating? Bubble under the cooler?
[07:13] <mikebeecham> dandel: just need to figure out how to sort out the two different aspect ratios now....brb
[07:13] <Arghetlam> Soundray: I'll check; I don't wanna cook my server.
[07:13] <K0smiC> Someone gives one hand to me? as soon as you are free
[07:13] <MidnightCowboy> soundray: yes, it is called libunixprintplugin
[07:14] <soundray> Arghetlam: consider the System Monitor thing that your BIOS offers (if it's generous)
[07:14] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: is your disk full? Check with df -h
[07:15] <K0smiC> .................................
[07:15] <K0smiC> LoL
[07:15] <soundray> K0smiC: describe your problem and hope that someone picks it up. DO NOT SPAM
[07:15] <K0smiC> soundray,
[07:15] <K0smiC> ok
[07:15] <michup> nesan: ive some problem with this it might be because of my english knowledge... ill give you links to tutorials wich i had read
[07:16] <K0smiC> I have installed ubuntu on mine laptop and possess one audio card Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Audio Definition Controller
[07:16] <michup> nesan: http://wolphination.com/linux/2006/06/30/how-to-record-videos-of-your-desktop/

[07:16] <michup> nesan: http://robrohan.com/2006/11/03/screen-casting-in-ubuntu-610/
[07:16] <tempsanity> nobody experienced the bug with gnome settings daemon?
[07:16] <tempsanity> icons acting weird etc
[07:16] <K0smiC> the audio card works alone if start with the option acpi=off even if feels low the volume and the quality is insufficient
[07:17] <soundray> K0smiC: have you tried pci=noacpi ?
[07:17] <K0smiC> how I can resolve?
[07:17] <MidnightCowboy> soundray: you know some cool commands, where did you learn those, oh yeah, no its not full , but the disk is 95% full, I have like 120 megs left on the drive the /usr folder is on.
[07:17] <K0smiC> soundray, no ....
[07:17] <mzracer360> What chmod permission would I need to give a folder outside of /var/www/ so my webserver can access it?
[07:18] <K0smiC> then start as you say and I make to know you.
[07:18] <nesan> mzracer360: chmod a+x
[07:18] <baktaah> Could someone test and see if they can play the .asx movie file if I gave them login info :) ?
[07:18] <SoftIce> nesan: i've worked it out, echo "postfix hold" | dpkg --set-selections
[07:18] <Arghetlam> Soundray: Weirdo; looks perfect.
[07:18] <nesan> SoftIce: Glad to hear, your solution sounds more sane. lol
[07:18] <Arghetlam> I'll clean it up and try it again; see if that helps.
[07:18] <Warbo> baktaah: Are you running 32bit or 64bit Ubuntu?
[07:19] <baktaah> war 32
[07:19] <baktaah> Warbo 32 linux
[07:20] <Terrasque> Warbo: ah, the reason i went 32bit again :)
[07:20] <soundray> MidnightCowboy: try giving the installer another path, like /tmp or your home dir. You can always mv it if it installs it there.
[07:20] <baktaah> I have already installed those codecs for real and mms, does it require restart of x? besides it has nothing to do with codec
[07:20] <Terrasque> couldnt watch my por.. eh nature videos, you see
[07:20] <MidnightCowboy> soundray: ok I will. thx

[07:24] <ferronica> nesan: Is there any problem???
[07:24] <nesan> ferronica: Problem? Nah.
[07:25] <soundray> K0smiC: the Intel audio devices are funny, I have one that makes no sound at all, although all the sound apps pretend to be playing.
[07:25] <K0smiC> it is possible that nobody has my same audio card? I do not want to install windows in order to listen to music and only to see films.
[07:25] <ferronica> nesan: you know what i am doing???
[07:25] <soundray> K0smiC: have you seen the official sound troubleshooting info? Private message from ubotu coming...
[07:25] <soundray> !sound > K0smiC
[07:26] <ferronica> nesan: it wont creat any problem???
[07:26] <nesan> michup: ferronica lol, no. I'm oblivious to how the gnome-bittorent client works, I use rtorrent.
[07:26] <K0smiC> !sound
[07:26] <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).

[07:29] <nesan> Wouldn't advise rtorrent, I use it personally because I have a hardware firewall that doubles as a box to handle my torrents. Deluge is a nice GTK2 client if you need something more user-oriented.
[07:29] <K0smiC> ok sorry

[07:30] <budluva> can someone lend me a hand here with mounting a usb hdd?
[07:30] <soundray> Arghetlam: no way to monitor CPU temps in the BIOS setup?
[07:30] <budluva> i had the drive inside my box, formatted as ext2, then put it into my vantec enclosure and now it should be mounted to /media/usbhdd but its not showing up
[07:30] <addams> ok guys
[07:30] <Arghetlam> Soundray: Probably; but I didn't have my BIOS set to start beeping at me or anything.
[07:30] <Arghetlam> Soundray: But it's running fine now.

[07:31] <addams> it is so fast, i actually think something is wrong

[07:31] <soundray> Arghetlam: it was a bubble, then ;)
[07:32] <nesan> ferronica: Works pretty well, really anxious to use the version shipped with Feisty but the installer on the beta discs don't pick up my HDD partition tables.
[07:32] <ferronica> nesan: ok
[07:32] <ferronica> nesan: which version are you using???
[07:33] <Arghetlam> Soundray: Cool beans. Thanks for the help. :D
[07:33] <shirish> igor: u still here?
[07:33] <nesan> ferronica: 0.5.3-1, off the Edgy repos.

[07:33] <shirish> igor: it didn't work, still got 640*480
[07:34] <nesan> ferronica: The version on Feisty has a much more complete interface from what little time I spent with it, brought a tear out of me. :\
[07:34] <Dell-Net> feisty any god ?
[07:34] <nesan> ferronica: rtorrent 0.5.3-1, off Edgy (Ubuntu 6.10).

[07:56] <Ferret> Thanks Seveas.
[07:56] <pirea> Gaim's lack of scroll-lock and ignore makes me a sad bear.
[07:56] <shark_> pirea, done then /dev/fd0 error goes but it still says cannot open framebuffer
[07:57] <pirea> shark_: No idea, that's a peculiar problem you have there.
[07:57] <Ferret> pirea: You can probably emulate scroll lock by pressing page-up once, waiting for a message to hit the channel, then page-down ...
[07:57] <apokryphos> yell0w: as a general tip, you might consider doing !ops | X is trolling, for example.
[07:57] <yell0w> apokryphos, ok
[07:58] <Ferret> pirea: And you can use /quote silence +Nickname!User@Host instead of ignore, but are you sure it doesn't have it?
[07:58] <shark_> pirea, what option should i use ?
[07:58] <wade> can anyone help me with a kernel issue?

[08:00] <wade> ubuntu 64bit works fine on my machine, but when I try to install 32bit, the -generic kernel tries to use x86_64 instead of i686 and none of my modules will load saying "invalid module format"
[08:00] <Dell-Net> vmware vs XEN ?
[08:00] <wade> this is on a fresh install
[08:00] <\lart> greetings all..  Running Edgy here.  Video card is an ati x1950.  I've got the fglrx 8.34.8 drivers built and working.  The xorg.conf defines the only display mode as 1680x1050 (the native res of the dell e207wfp monitor attached).  Yet, somehow it insists on trying 1920x1080 for the gdm screen (once logged in, I've changed to 1680x1050).  Anyone have any thoughts as to why the x server would ignore the definitions in the Screen section of xorg.conf?
[08:00] <shark_> pirea, same error
[08:01] <ferronica> nesan: i diidnt found it in Internet :(
[08:01] <mikebeecham> does anyone know if you can force two different aspect rations in VLC?  I want to run video at fullscreen 4:3 on my clone in twinview, while keeping the normal ratio on my desktop
[08:01] <edistar> I have a software raid (/dev/md0) and upgraded to feisty... now grub(?) doesn't find my root partition anymore.... how can I repair this?
[08:01] <secureboot> is it possible to get gconf in feisty?
[08:01] <shirish> any 915resolution fixers out here?
[08:01] <Pelo> ferronica,  it is possible that you have to make it manualy ,  command line to start rtorrent should be just rtorrent from the terminal
[08:01] <pirea> Ferret: Very sure, nothing of the like listed in /help. Ah well, not like I have to use it that often. lol
[08:01] <secureboot> i want to add keybindings to launch programs other than the ones in Keyboard Shortcuts
[08:01] <ferronica> nesan: i did
[08:01] <Pelo> ferronica,  cosider using deluge-torrent , from their site
[08:01] <pirea> ^ Seconded.
[08:02] <Kriss> can someone recomend me some good dell laptops that's bound to be no hassle getting ubuntu on?
[08:02] <Pelo> edistar,  try booting form the live cd go in gparted and re-flag your boot partition to boot
[08:02] <h4lfl1ng> is there a way to auto detect the sound card? because alsamixer/ and volume controll cant find anything..but lspci shows my card
[08:02] <ferronica> Pelo : deluge it is for ubuntu 6.10 but i am using 6.06 LTS
[08:02] <mikebeecham> #vlc
[08:02] <edistar> does gparted recognize a raid?
[08:03] <Pelo> Kriss,   dell just anounced preinstalled linux on laptop and desktop , you might want to have a look at their site
[08:03] <pirea> There's bound to be a Dapper pkg.
[08:03] <edistar> hm, my boot is not in the raid, true
[08:03] <Pelo> ferronica,  are you absolutely sure ?
[08:03] <vanberge> is anybody willing to help me get my external HD writable?  Im starting to get desperate, i just bought it today!
[08:03] <ScatterBrain> Kriss:  I've had very good luck with Latitude line from Dell.
[08:03] <ferronica> Pelo : of what ,that i said above
[08:04] <yell0w> vanberge, is it fat32 ?
[08:04] <pirea> vanberge: Is it formatted? If so, what filesystem?
[08:04] <wade> is there a way to force my -generic kernel to use i686 instead of x86_64?
[08:04] <vanberge> yell0w, pirea it is pre-formatted ntfs unfortunately  :-(
[08:04] <mikebeecham> Are there any VLC professors out there, I need some help!!!
[08:04] <ScatterBrain> Kriss: The Inspiron line will work, but it might take some effort to get everything *just right*
[08:04] <Pelo> ferronica,  deluge 5.0 is just a regular  .deb package  shoudln't have any issues with dapper
[08:04] <ferronica> Pelo : some one in room told me deluge is for ubuntu 6.10
[08:04] <yell0w> !ntfs  | vanberge
[08:04] <ubotu> vanberge: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:05] <vanberge> yell0w, i already went through that...
[08:05] <ferronica> Pelo : let me check it in my synaptic
[08:05] <mikebeecham> !vlc
[08:05] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[08:05] <Pelo> ferronica,  not in synaptic, from the deluge site   http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=i386&file=pool%2Fmain%2Fd%2Fdeluge-torrent%2Fdeluge-torrent_0.5.0-2_i386.deb&md5sum=2da611f95e0eefd6d4a6e48d122d5aee&arch=i386&type=main
[08:05] <yell0w> vanberge, did you try ntfs-3g ?
[08:05] <Pelo> ferronica,  if you need advance features  consider  utorrent running on wine
[08:05] <pirea> If there's nothing on it, why not just format it to ext3 or vfat?
[08:05] <Kriss> ScatterBrain, ok, I think I'll go with the pre-installed option then =)
[08:05] <vanberge> yell0w, yes i just did that... plus got the ntfs-config tool
[08:06] <Kriss> might save me some money on no MS license fee as well
[08:06] <bas> hiy'all.. i just resized and moved around my partitions. when i do update-grub menu.lst is however still referring to the old root partition.. how can i change this?
[08:06] <Terrasque> Pelo: last time i tried that utorrent just generated files full of garbage.
[08:06] <yell0w> vanberge, as pirea said, why not format it as fat32 or ext3 ?
[08:06] <ferronica> Pelo :  i am using linux , prefer to use linux application only this my principal  :)
[08:06] <yell0w> vanberge, writing to ntfs is at a very early stage right now
[08:06] <Pelo> Terrasque,  I never had a problem ,  and I wrote the guide on how to do it
[08:06] <vanberge> yell0w, i wouldnt mind... but i can't get it to do anything
[08:06] <ScatterBrain> Kriss: that pre-installed thingy is new.  I don't know when it's going into effect or even which distro they're going to pre-install.
[08:07] <vanberge> yell0w,  even if open iwht partitioner, cannot do anything with it
[08:07] <vanberge> says 'read only disk
[08:07] <ScatterBrain> Kriss: Have you tried system76?
[08:07] <yell0w> vanberge, even with gparted ?
[08:07] <ScatterBrain> !system76
[08:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about system76 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:07] <Kriss> ScatterBrain, I don't know what system76 is, I'm just in the market for a Linux compatible laptop
[08:07] <yell0w> vanberge, start gparted, unmount the drive, then reformat it
[08:07] <vanberge> yell0w, i can't even delete the partition
[08:07] <Smilez> Hello everyone... I'm currently trying to dd an image onto a usb drive... but it seems to have hung... its been writing for well over an hour now
[08:08] <ScatterBrain> Kriss: system76 is a hardware vendor - like Dell - and they only sell Ubuntu Machines.
[08:08] <pirea> vanberge: That's odder than all.
[08:08] <yell0w> vanberge, what does gparted tell you ?
[08:08] <StanRex> hi everyone \o/
[08:08] <Kriss> ScatterBrain, ok great do you know if they ship to North Europe?
[08:08] <ScatterBrain> Kriss: http://system76.com
[08:08] <ScatterBrain> Kriss: I think they ship anywhere.
[08:08] <vanberge> nvm... i am dumb.   i couldnt delete the partition because it was auto mounted to /media/usbdisk
[08:09] <ferronica> Pelo : error
[08:09] <Pelo> ferronica,  with the install ?
[08:09] <Kriss> ScatterBrain, ok thanks I'll have a look!
[08:09] <ferronica> Pelo : Deluge
[08:09] <pirea> On a side note: Darter notebooks are adorable.
[08:09] <Pelo> ferronica,   I am very surprised , it was worth a shot
[08:09] <wade> is there a way to force my -generic kernel to use i686 instead of x86_64?
[08:09] <h4lfl1ng> alsactl name doesnt find any sound cards
[08:09] <ferronica> Pelo : dependency is not satisfiable: libc6
[08:10] <Smilez> Anybody? Tips of using DD? This has been attempting to write to a device for over an hour
[08:10] <Pelo> ferronica,  go in synaptic and see to install libc6
[08:10] <r00t_> lspci says i have  ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro AGP 1X (rev 5c) for a graphics card,should i be able to run beryl?thanks i dnt want to waste my time trying
[08:10] <ferronica> Pelo : when i used package installer to install it
[08:10] <r00t_> compiz/xgl
[08:10] <pirea> Pelo: It requires a higher version than what's on Dapper's repos, if I'm not mistaken.
[08:10] <Kriss> ScatterBrain, they only ship to North America :(
[08:11] <vanberge> yell0w, pirea tyvm... i think i'm good now!
[08:11] <Pelo> r00t_,    ask in  #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[08:11] <yell0w> vanberge, those things happen to everyone ;P
[08:11] <ScatterBrain> Kriss: Ah...that sucks.  Sorry.
[08:11] <wade> will 32bit ubuntu not work on a 64bit cpu?
[08:11] <Pelo> pirea,  could be
[08:11] <pirea> wade: Yes, it should.
[08:11] <Kriss> ScatterBrain, jaja dell it is then =)
[08:11] <Pelo> wade,  I beleive it does,  better then the 64 bit version
[08:11] <Terrasque> wade: 32bit works fine on 64bit cpu
[08:11] <yell0w> wade, i'm running it on amd64
[08:12] <pirea> x64 is depreciated as far as I am concerned, some things just will not work in the 64-bit edition.
[08:12] <StanRex> guys, I have a question regarding partitioning : I m a windows xp user, who has two 250gb hd in raid0. I d like to remove the raid, and create the following partitions on those two hd : one partition for ubuntu, one for vista, one for fat32 storage (music and videos that I can access under both ubuntu and vista), one for ntfs storage for files>4gb and maybe one for games
[08:12] <Terrasque> pirea: true
[08:12] <Warbo> For me 32bit Ubuntu won't load due to some BIOS thingie, but 64bit works fine
[08:12] <wade> ubuntu 64bit works fine on my machine, but when I try to install 32bit, the -generic kernel tries to use x86_64 instead of i686 and none of my modules will load saying "invalid module format"
[08:12] <StanRex> I was wondering on which hd I should put those partitions
[08:12] <StanRex> if I should install ubuntu first, then vista
[08:12] <vanberge> yell0w, pirea i spoke too soon!
[08:12] <pirea> ferronica: GetDeb has a Dapper pkg for Deluge 0.4
[08:12] <vanberge> i can't format it!

[08:13] <StanRex> and if I should wait for the next ubuntu release or install 6.10, and maybe get feisty fawn later
[08:13] <ferronica> pirea: How
[08:13] <pirea> ferronica: Magic! How what?
[08:13] <professor_qwerty> Alacarte Menu Editor is not loading, there's a bunch of blinking lights and then nada.
[08:13] <ferronica> pirea: getdeb???
[08:13] <life> where should I proceed?
[08:13] <wade> i wish i could get 32bit to work on my 64bit... anyone know some links to get places to get information on problems?
[08:14] <Smilez> what can I use to format a disk to be HFS
[08:14] <Smilez> ?
[08:14] <wade> should I try the ubuntu forums?
[08:14] <pirea> ferronica: It's a site, lol. http://getdeb.net

[08:14] <Pelo> StanRex,  sounds to me like you've pretty much figured out what you want to do and only need to do it,  put vista on one hdd and ubuntu on the other that way you'll have an eaiser time upgrading to feisty, ,  make a seperate partition for your /home folder  make it easier still
[08:15] <uni_> is there a spanish support?

[08:15] <ferronica> pirea: what is this, and why i need it
[08:15] <StanRex> seperate partition for home folder?
[08:15] <Pelo> ooglaboogla,   try asking in #grub
[08:16] <yell0w> StanRex, that would help in crashes/version update
[08:16] <mikebeecham> Are there any VLC experts in here today?
[08:16] <StanRex> and huh, how is it done?
[08:16] <Pelo> StanRex,  on the hdd where you will setup ubuntu   make  10gig part for /  , 2 gig part for swap  and  use the rest for /home
[08:16] <pirea> Keep forgetting English isn't ferronica's native tongue. X(

[08:19] <drake> hello?
[08:19] <Pelo> eyalw,  it is customary to pay attention for answers when you ask for help
[08:19] <drake> I need some help with my graphics card ...
[08:19] <devil_> bonjour
[08:20] <pirea> Hmm.
[08:20] <Pelo> drake,  you need to be more specific
[08:20] <drake> I have a gforce 420 and Im trying to play an mmorpg called Tibia but whenever I log in its all white and it flashes..
[08:20] <eyalw> Pelo: can ndiswrapper run 32bit drivers on 64bit systems?
[08:20] <pirea> drake: You scared of the terminal by chance?
[08:20] <drake> I checked glxinfo and it says 3d rendering is enabled
[08:20] <Pelo> eyalw,  I have no idea, I know nothing about wireless
[08:21] <professor_qwerty> Alacarte Menu Editor is not loading, there's a bunch of blinking lights and then nada.  What could this be?  Its only happening with a new user I added to the system.
[08:21] <eyalw>  can ndiswrapper run 32bit drivers on 64bit systems?
[08:21] <troy> Quick question for compiling software: //lib/modules/2.6.17-10-server/build symlink should point to where?
[08:21] <pirea> Try running Tibia from a terminal and see if anything useful shows, sounds more like a problem with the game itself.
[08:21] <mjr> eyalw, no
[08:21] <drake> um.. not really scared of the terminal why?
[08:21] <Pelo> professor_qwerty,  make sure the new users as permission
[08:21] <drake> I installed Envy to update my drivers and everything but then the screen goes black and I cant log in
[08:21] <eyalw> anyone know how to wireless on macbook 2 ?
[08:22] <drake> how can I run from the terminal?
[08:22] <professor_qwerty> Pelo, The new user is set as an administrator with full permissions.
[08:22] <Lowe> drake: have you checked the system log?

[08:23] <pirea> drake: Err, you talking to me? ;F
[08:23] <eyalw> pirea: i cant, i have 64bit ubuntu
[08:23] <yell0w> Haekke, try df at terminal
[08:23] <drake> @ Lowe, what do I look under System Log?
[08:23] <Pelo> Haekke,  is your trash can empty ?  are you seing the full disk or just the partitionned portions with  an unallocated sections ,  are yo sure you are looking at the right hdd in gparted
[08:23] <Lowe> drake:  messages maybe?
[08:23] <Lowe> drake: i'm not sure
[08:24] <Haekke> yell0w & Pelo: just a sec
[08:24] <drake> Doesnt say anything under messages
[08:25] <drake> I have tibia on my desktop.. how would I get it to run in terminal?
[08:25] <yell0w> drake, tibia <enter> ? :P
[08:26] <drake> bash: tibia: command not found
[08:26] <Haekke> yell0w & Pelo: take a look at this.. isnt something wrong? : http://11dem.dk/ubuntu/Screenshot.png
[08:26] <Azzkikr> drake: how would you normally start it?
[08:26] <pirea> drake: Did you install Tibia from a deb package or some other means?
[08:26] <drake> open the folder and run the binary
[08:27] <Azzkikr> remember the location of the binary
[08:27] <LaNCeloT_RW> dudes, is it: On the internet or In the internet ? - I hate prepositions
[08:27] <Pelo> Haekke,  which partition is the problem ?
[08:27] <Azzkikr> and then, type the foldername + executable to execute it within a terminal
[08:27] <Azzkikr> for instance, /usr/share/games/tibia/tibia
[08:27] <pirea> LaNCeloT_RW: I would think it would 'on' if anything, both sound off.
[08:27] <Haekke> Pelo: dev/sdb1
[08:28] <Haekke> Pelo: kook at available and free
[08:28] <Ademan> anyone familiar with a problem where the network manager doesn't work with secure networks?
[08:28] <Pelo> Haekke,  have you tried difraggenting it ?
[08:28] <drake> /home/drake/Desktop/Tibia thats the directory
[08:28] <Pelo> defragmenting
[08:28] <LaNCeloT_RW> pirea, im from brazil, i need to know this.. LOL.. im writing about TCP IP so, i need this.. :>
[08:28] <Azzkikr> then type :  /home/drake/Desktop/Tibia/<binary>
[08:28] <drake> On the tibia.com website it says to extract the contents.. and then run the binary file called 'Tibia'
[08:28] <yell0w> Pelo, you don't really need to do that with ext3
[08:28] <Haekke> Pelo: nope dont even know how to do that. But its a brand new format just copied files over via ftp fom this computer. never deleted anything
[08:28] <Pelo> Haekke,   sorry I just noticed it's ext3,   check the lost&found folder
[08:29] <Haekke> Pelo: lost+found folder seems empty
[08:29] <Guychi> Hi!  How can I create a single command line that takes the number output from "pgrep myprocess" and feeds it to "kill -9" ?
[08:29] <pirea> LaNCeloT_RW: lol... I'd personally just rephrase it so it read 'through the internet' or something. XD
[08:29] <Pelo> Haekke,  why is  sdb1 mounted twice ?
[08:29] <drake>  /home/drake/Desktop/Tibia/<binary>
[08:29] <wizi> hey weiss jemand wie ich im xgl bzw beryl das farbschema ndern kann?
[08:29] <drake> I get an error..
[08:29] <LaNCeloT_RW> piok, tnx
[08:29] <LaNCeloT_RW> =)
[08:29] <Guychi> Or in short, how to do a "kill -9" to myprocess in one command?
[08:30] <LaNCeloT_RW> pirea, tnx!
[08:30] <jmhodges> hey, how do i get the Edgy or Beta cd to recognize my USB keyboard?
[08:30] <drake> I tried putting 'tibia' where the <binary> is but it says command not found
[08:30] <leme-twra> any greek here
[08:30] <Azzkikr> okay drake: open up the folder where Tibia is located, what do you see?
[08:30] <pirea> Guychi: Why not just use 'killall -9' followed by the literal cmd?
[08:30] <Haekke> Pelo: not really sure. I mounted in on dev as a guide said.. but I wanted x264 folder visible under my ftp and a guide said do mount it like that
[08:30] <Haekke> Pelo: *to
[08:31] <Ferret> Guychi: You could use pgrep
[08:31] <leme-twra> any greek here
[08:31] <Pelo> Haekke,   I think that might be the problem , unmount both /media dolder and see what happens
[08:31] <drake> 'show error' , 'tibia' . tibia.dat and some map files
[08:31] <Pelo> folder
[08:31] <pirea> Or that. ^
[08:31] <drake> in terminal it says it couldnt find it because its not installe
[08:31] <Guychi> pirea: thanks!!
[08:31] <IcemanV9> Guychi: "pkill myprocess" will do the trick
[08:32] <Haekke> Pelo: ok just a sec- btw thanks for helping
[08:32] <Guychi> IcemanV9: pkill doesn't take -9 on my system
[08:32] <Azzkikr> then its not installed properly i gues
[08:32] <drake> I think its a problem with nvidia..
[08:32] <IcemanV9> Guychi: no need to add -9; just (e.g.) pkill rhythmbox
[08:32] <pirea> drake: I doubt it.
[08:32] <drake> because the game runs and all but it just looks like crap :S
[08:33] <Guychi> IcemanV9: doesn't kill it without -9
[08:33] <Guychi> IcemanV9: svn in my case
[08:33] <Azzkikr> drake: did you install your video drivers?
[08:33] <drake> Yeah I used automatix
[08:33] <pirea> drake: You know how to use 'cd' in the terminal, right?
[08:33] <drake> no :/
[08:33] <jeeves_Moss> can someone give me a URL to d-load the net install for Ubuntu?  I don't care if I have to upgrade the dist after.  the laptop I'm working with has a shot CD-ROM drive and no floppy
[08:34] <pirea> Alright, cd stands for 'change directory'. Little lesson, anyhow. Open a terminal and type 'cd  /home/drake/Desktop/Tibia/'.
[08:34] <IcemanV9> Guychi: interesting. guess you'll have to use kill -9 <process number>
[08:34] <pirea> Then type './Tibia'.
[08:34] <pirea> Times like this I wish Nautilus had a 'Open Terminal Here' option. lol
[08:34] <drake> ~/Desktop/Tibia$  is what I got
[08:34] <jeeves_Moss> azzkikr:  do you know of a net install of Ubuntu?
[08:34] <Daemonik> xcompmgr doesn't get along with the logout window, with xcompmgr on the logout windows remains completely hidden. Is there a work around for this?
[08:34] <Azzkikr> jeeves_Moss: no mate
[08:34] <pirea> Yeah, that shows your working directory. What's the name of the binary file?
[08:35] <drake> Tibia
[08:35] <jeeves_Moss> azzkikr:  damn, I know they made one once.  I didn't care if I had to do a dist upgrade or not.
[08:35] <pirea> Then do this: ./Tibia
[08:35] <Azzkikr> drake: you can type 'ls' to List the Structure of your current working directory

[08:40] <Azzkikr> drake, what is your graphics card?
[08:40] <pirea> There are some odds-and-ends like FVWM-Crystal and E17 which are more like decked-out window managers than full-fluged DE's.
[08:40] <nixnoob> feisty amd 64 and i386 live cd both cause cpu lockups on my laptop and my desktop during boot
[08:40] <Pelo> Haekke,  what I think is happending is that you created a loop inside the mount point so that all the infor is read over and over again

[08:49] <drake> alright, sorry

[08:52] <tommy_> how can i unrar a file in ubuntu? (like, what programs can i download that can do it)
[08:52] <LegolasV> Hi, I'm using the nv driver in my X.org, and not the nvidia one (I've got an older Nvidia GeForce, so that'd be nvidia-glx-legacy) but things like SuperTux and TuxRacer get extreme slow. But when I switch to the nvidia one I only can get resolutions up to 800x600 and now I'm using 1280x1024. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong, or is it just beter to stick with what I have?
[08:52] <Azzkikr> drake: can you try executing fgl_glxgears ?
[08:52] <pirea> tommy_: Install either 'unrar' or 'rar' packages from Synaptic.
[08:53] <drake> just paste that into terminal?
[08:53] <Azzkikr> yeah: fgl_glxgears
[08:53] <pirea> Archives should open in File Roller w/o any nagging whatsoever. Can use those two from a terminal as well.
[08:53] <mikebeecham> LegolasV: Have you tried adding the reasolutions you want into your xorg.conf?
[08:53] <Haekke> yell0w: do you know a way to fix this?
[08:53] <yell0w> Haekke, maybe disable ext3's journaling option ?
[08:53] <LinuxProbie> So, my audio doesn't quite work properly, how do I make it totally work?
[08:53] <LNX1> Hi !
[08:53] <Azzkikr> YO!
[08:54] <LNX1> I have a little trouble with my scanner
[08:54] <LegolasV> mikebeecham: They still were there
[08:54] <yell0w> Haekke, my root partition has 15 gb, currently 0.8 gb is "missing"
[08:54] <LNX1> I'ts a Canon Lide 20
[08:54] <drake> It says "Bash command not found"
[08:54] <Azzkikr> hmm okay
[08:54] <Rooy> drake: try glxgears
[08:54] <LNX1> when I come in xsane, my scanner is detected
[08:54] <LNX1> ok
[08:55] <LoRez> Haekke: turn the reserved blocks off.  tune2fs -r 0 /dev/$foo
[08:55] <LNX1> but when I want to make a scan preview or just a scan, nothing
[08:55] <PiNE_> what command would i use to find out what my processor is?
[08:55] <drake> I typed in glxgears and I got 3 gears spinning
[08:55] <LNX1> in preview mode, a black windows appear
[08:55] <Azzkikr> drake: normal fps?
[08:55] <tsoler> !greek filenames
[08:55] <drake> 5.0 fps
[08:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about greek filenames - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:56] <pirea> PiNE_: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[08:56] <Azzkikr> ok... seems like your graphics card isn't functioning alright...
[08:56] <tommy_> question: how would i open an .exe file that i already know is compatible with wine? It doesnt list wine when i right click and select "open with other application"
[08:56] <drake> sorry
[08:56] <drake> 33,000 fps
[08:56] <Azzkikr> oh heh
[08:56] <drake> in 5.0 seconds
[08:56] <Azzkikr> working alright then, i guess :D
[08:57] <pirea> Anyone messed with the VT extensions on the Feisty generic kernel?
[08:57] <LNX1> Ok thanks, found BUG
[08:57] <Azzkikr> but when you start tibia, you get flickering?
[08:57] <LNX1> Bug #85488:
[08:57] <LNX1> Canon Lide25 (plustek backend) scanner does not scan via gui
[08:57] <drake> yes when I try to login, and then when I am in I freeze and it flashes
[08:57] <Azzkikr> hm
[08:57] <Fufy> People help me !
[08:57] <fuzzy_logic> hi.. i just installed the kubuntu-package.. but when i try to login i get this message: "Could not load kstartupconfig. Please check your installation."
[08:57] <Azzkikr> any output on your terminal?
[08:57] <fuzzy_logic> anyone help?
[08:57] <tsoler> can anyone help me to view my files that have greek filenames?
[08:58] <drake> when I run tibia?
[08:58] <Azzkikr> yeah?
[08:58] <drake> nope no output
[08:58] <The_Machine> I was trying to get an NTFS External USB drive to work with kubuntu - didn't really work, so i finally undid all of the instructions i was following and was able to reformat as ext3 drive.  Now it doesn't seem to be mounting when I plug it into the USB port.  Can someone help me make it so that it automounts when plugged in again?  (to /media/ and shows up as an icon on my desktop, etc?)
[08:58] <Azzkikr> you run it within the terminal, right?
[08:58] <Rooy> tsoler: are those files on an ntfs filesystem?
[08:58] <drake> yes
[08:58] <drake> Before I installed the automatix drivers I could log in normal without flashes
[08:58] <Azzkikr> hmm... weird stuff
[08:59] <drake> the only problem is that I would constantly lag and freeze
[08:59] <pirea> tsoler: I think you need to isntall ttf-gentiu.
[08:59] <Azzkikr> perhaps the tibia forum people know more?
[08:59] <pirea> Not entirely sure, know as much of the Greek language I do about astro-physics.
[08:59] <PiNE_> i am going to try swiftfox and my cpu is a pentium 4-M, should i use the swiftfox for the pentium M or for the pentium 4?
[09:00] <drake> Its slow reponse there.. I've been waiting 5 days :/
[09:00] <Azzkikr> tried ubuntu forums?
[09:00] <Cleine> hi all
[09:00] <Kriss> hi Cleine
[09:00] <drake> nope
[09:00] <mikebeecham> Are there any resolution / twinview / clone experts out there?
[09:01] <tdn> Can I use hibernate if I use LUKS to encrypt my swap partition with a random key?
[09:01] <pirea> PiNE_: Pentium M, I would imagine.
[09:01] <rellik> how can I tell how much memory a process is using? is it the 'rss' or 'vsz' in 'ps -u' ?
[09:01] <pirea> Actually, probably P4.
[09:02] <mikebeecham> Hi...can anyone help me with a twinview issue?
[09:02] <drake> could you please give me the 'CD' code to type into terminal so I can try again?
[09:02] <Pici> rellik: use top
[09:02] <PiNE_> pirea, thanks.  do you run swiftfox? is there a noticeable difference between it and firefox?
[09:02] <rellik> Pici I don't have permissions for 'top'
[09:03] <Azzkikr> drake: cd /home/drake/Desktop/Tibia/      or something
[09:03] <mikebeecham> I want to play movie files on my TV, which has been set up as a clone via Twinview.  However, as my TV can only go up to 1024x768, the video image is bigger than my TV can fit on the screen
[09:03] <pirea> Naw, I just use the generic pkg off Ubuntu's depos. Tried it against a generic on another machine and didn't notice much of a difference.
[09:04] <shirish> is there a launchpad channel?
[09:04] <drake> how do I open the exe from there?
[09:04] <Azzkikr> shirish: #launchpad?
[09:04] <PiNE_> pirea, well i'll see how it goes... thanks for the help!
[09:04] <Azzkikr> drake: you type:    ./Tibia
[09:04] <shirish> Azzkikr: does the channel exist?
[09:04] <Azzkikr> shirish: yes
[09:05] <shirish> Azzkikr: thnx :)
[09:05] <Haekke> yell0w: I figured out its ext3 by default reserves about 5% for superuser purposes.
[09:05] <LinuxProbie> Any bluetooth advice at all? I can't even tell if it works or not cause I've dug around to find a bluetooth manager and I can't find one.
[09:05] <Azzkikr> LinuxProbie: OBEX was some kinda client for bluetooth...
[09:05] <Azzkikr> LinuxProbie: dont know any specifics, i once tried it.... 5 months ago
[09:05] <yell0w> Haekke, :)
[09:05] <drake> ok thanks guys
[09:06] <Azzkikr> drake: any luck running it?
[09:06] <Haekke> yell0w: but I kinda dont know how to remove that part :/
[09:06] <drake> its still the same white and lag
[09:06] <Megaqwerty> when I try to restart apache2 after adding the include line for squirrelmail, I get this message: Syntax error on line 4 of /etc/squirrelmail/apache.conf:
[09:06] <Megaqwerty> Invalid command 'php_flag', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
[09:06] <Megaqwerty> I have libapache2-mod-php4 installed, what am I missing?
[09:06] <drake> I will try contacting tibia
[09:06] <Azzkikr> okay, but does the terminal output some messages?
[09:06] <LinuxProbie> I just need bluetooth to do some coonnecting to my phone. my laptop didn't come with an M2 reader.
[09:06] <yell0w> Haekke, if ext3 developers make it like that, there's got to be a reason, don't mess with it
[09:06] <drake> no output in terminal
[09:06] <pirea> rellik: RSS/RES reflects actual, physical memory usage.
[09:06] <yell0w> Haekke, after all you have 475 gb left don't you ?
[09:06] <drake> is there something I should type in to get output?
[09:07] <Azzkikr> is there any log file in the current directory?
[09:07] <StoneNote> !bluetooth
[09:07] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[09:07] <LinuxProbie> StoneNote: Thanx!
[09:07] <StoneNote> yw
[09:07] <Azzkikr> drake: type    ls -la   to view your directory structure. Perhaps some log file was created
[09:07] <rellik> pirea, just physical mem usage?  what about swap soace?
[09:07] <Haekke> yell0w: hehe thats only for the next hour. moving about 2tb and adding drives. just need to figure this out as i need the space
[09:08] <kestaz> wtf is eth0:avah ?
[09:08] <pirea> rellik: You can use top or htop to measure that.
[09:08] <Rooy> Haekke: a switch for mke2fs [-m reserved-blocks-percentage] 
[09:09] <Ice_Wewe> hello all, I'm having a problem with wine and this *expletive* generic x64 kernel
[09:09] <Haekke> Rooy: Can I ask you to explan a bit more?
[09:09] <drake> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12787/
[09:09] <drake> thats the output of the log file
[09:09] <drake> running it on my laptop and uni is the profile name
[09:09] <Ice_Wewe> whenever I try to run a program I get this error: "Message from syslogd@piko at Thu Mar 29 15:01:53 2007 ...; piko kernel: [787260.751999]  Oops: 0000 [1]  SMP ; Message from syslogd@piko at Thu Mar 29 15:01:53 2007 ...; piko kernel: [787260.752401]  CR2: ffffc20000073000"
[09:10] <Rooy> Haekke: when you create an ext2/3 filesystem with mke2fs, you can choose the reserved persentage with that switch
[09:10] <rellik> pirea, well, as per my previous comment, I don't have top
[09:10] <Haekke> Rooy: so I have to format the drive again to make that change?
[09:11] <crparr> Hi! What is the correct way to configure my laptop, so that it uses the external monitor (when present), otherwise the lcd flat panel?
[09:11] <crparr> Dialhead is not wanted!
[09:11] <pirea> rellik: How could you not having top? :|
[09:11] <Azzkikr> drake: can you copy and paste the text within the file   showerror ?
[09:11] <Rooy> Haekke: tune2fs also has [-m reserved_blocks_percent] 
[09:11] <drake> showerror file?
[09:11] <Rooy> Haekke: i guess that just require unmount that
[09:12] <drake> how would I open up the showerror?
[09:12] <LinuxProbie> StoneNote: Ok, it's actually installed and stuffs, but I was hoping for a nifty GUI interface for pairing with stuff.
[09:12] <rellik> pirea, I don't have permissions for it on the system
[09:12] <Azzkikr> there is a file there, called 'showerror'. It was 9643 bytes large. The file you pasted on pastebin is a directory structure
[09:12] <Haekke> Rooy: I will try install and mess a bit, can I return to you ?
[09:12] <StoneNote> linesUB, gnome or kde ?
[09:12] <Azzkikr> you can view the contents by typing:     cat showerror
[09:12] <pirea> rellik: Wow, I think you have bigger problems. XD
[09:12] <StoneNote> LinuxProbie, gnome or kde?
[09:12] <Rooy> Haekke: i don't get what you mean
[09:12] <linesUB> StoneNote: gnome
[09:12] <pirea> I think 'free -m' will also show swap usage.
[09:13] <LinuxProbie> StoneNote: I;m pretty sure i;m on gnome (running feisty)
[09:13] <rellik> pirea, "bigger problems"
[09:13] <Rooy> or swapon -s
[09:13] <Rooy> no, free -m beats swapon -s
[09:13] <Haekke> Rooy: I meant install tune2fs and have a look at it, but I cant find it in packages?
[09:13] <pirea> rellik: Permissions for top usually allow for anyone to use it.
[09:13] <xircx> how do i use wine?
[09:13] <pirea> Rooy: Hell, they both work. XD
[09:14] <drake> It shows weird characters, you still want to see them?
[09:14] <Ice_Wewe> my SMP error is here: http://pastebin.ca/415603 for anyone that wants to look at it and tell me what's wrong
[09:14] <Azzkikr> yeah sure
[09:14] <Azzkikr> it might be a binary too
[09:14] <Rooy> Haekke: it should be on your system already, partof ext2progs
[09:14] <xircx> iv installed then complied
[09:14] <gu014> what command can i issue to remove the GUI for ubuntu and stricly have console?
[09:14] <xircx> i just wanna acess it
[09:15] <LinuxProbie> StoneNote: I dug through the add programs thing, but all of the bluetooth things were for KDE
[09:15] <Rooy> Haekke: sorry, pulled that package name out of my imagination
[09:15] <StoneNote> LinuxProbie, I've never used it but try sudo apt-get install gnome-bluetooth
[09:15] <drake> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12789/           thats what it shows
[09:15] <xircx> well with wine would i need to reboot my system then?
[09:15] <Haekke> Rooy: you are right its installed :D do you know what exactly I should type? im kind of a ubuntu newbie
[09:15] <Flannel> gu014: You'll just have to start removing them.  Is this a fresh install
[09:16] <Azzkikr> okay, drake, type :          ./showerror
[09:16] <Slart> gu014: if you just want a gui-less os you might find it easier to try another distro (I don't think the server version is guiless)
[09:16] <Flannel> gu014: since, you can install a GUIless system.  That might be easiest.
[09:16] <Flannel> Slart: What are you talking about?  Of course server is GUIless.  Alt CD also has a guiless install
[09:16] <gu014> Flannel, i would rather not reinstall...have a ftp setup and all that
[09:16] <Rooy> Haekke: tune2fs -m 0.001 /dev/foo2, but you should see tune2fs --help if there's a testrun switch
[09:17] <LinuxProbie> StoneNote: Ahh, thx. That's the filesharing client, which I guess is all I really needed.
[09:17] <Flannel> gu014: Then you'll have to bite the bullet and do a bit of manual removal.
[09:17] <drake> all the characters are weird..
[09:18] <LinuxProbie> the last issue I;m having is that my audio makes funny popping noises. I don't think the High-Def audio is installed properly (if at all)
[09:18] <drake> I cant see whats going on anymore? how do I reset it?
[09:18] <Flannel> gu014: apparently this one will remove everything ubuntu-desktop installed : http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde
[09:18] <soop> drake: ctl-alt-backspace
[09:18] <Haekke> Rooy: doesnt look like it. but I can just do this to my drive with all the data on it? just unmount it?
[09:18] <Rooy> Haekke: and information about commands are available in manpages, eg man tune2fs
[09:18] <Azzkikr> ctrl+c
[09:18] <Fawzib> hello, one question: I upgraded from dapper to edgy I used the linux-image-k8-smp package it's replacement is linux-generic, right?
[09:18] <Flannel> Fawzib: Correct
[09:19] <Fawzib> ok, thanks
[09:19] <Azzkikr> drake: i've given every hint on something i dont know, i am afraid i can't help you further. I hope the forum people have a clue
[09:19] <Rooy> Haekke: go along with it, you trust ext2/3 devs, don't ya? :)
[09:19] <drake> ok :/
[09:20] <AaronCampbell> How can I either: a) boot to a comamnd prompt *or* b) pass extra parameters to startx when booting (startx -- -logverbose 6)?
[09:20] <Ice_Wewe> does anyone else have SMP x64 kernel errors on a single core machine?
[09:20] <StoneNote> LinuxProbie, here's what I get when I search on bluetooth. maybe something off this list will be what you're looking for. good luck http://www.pastebin.us/19615
[09:20] <budluva> anyone here have an external usb harddrive? i have a vantec enclosure and a seagate ide hard drive, i can see that the adapter is connected via lsusb, but fdisk -l shows only my hda
[09:20] <Haekke> Rooy: Doesnt really matter.. have a backup of one of the drives.. I will try with that drive first.. should I unmount first or just go ahead?
[09:20] <Rooy> Haekke: sure
[09:20] <budluva> how do i find out the device for this usb harddisk?
[09:20] <jorooooooooooOo> xora kak se instalira ubunto
[09:21] <LinuxProbie> StoneNote: The file transfer is all I need for the most part (to pull pictures off of my phone), can you lend any advice on getting my audio working properly?
[09:21] <Haekke> Rooy: how about that 0.001. you sure I wont be reserving too little?
[09:21] <Azzkikr> AaronCampbell: man startx
[09:21] <lingga_jove> anybody knows how to set up 3d desktop fot ubuntu ? such as compiz ?
[09:21] <Flannel> lingga_jove: #ubuntu-effects will get you all setup
[09:21] <ferronica> pirea: getdeb from this link what i download?
[09:21] <Azzkikr> AaronCampbell: it will redirect you to the systemwide /etc/X11/xinitc file
[09:21] <Rooy> Haekke: no, i just get your attention to that part, you should tweak it to your liking
[09:21] <ferronica> pirea: i am not aware of all thses.....
[09:22] <Haekke> Rooy: ah ok.. I guess 500mb must be more than enough. I'll make it 0.1 :D
[09:22] <lingga_jove> Flanel : what is the of the pkg ?
[09:22] <Rooy> Haekke: reserved percentage makes sense on filesystem which root needs space, eg to keeps system logs
[09:22] <Flannel> lingga_jove: No idea.  But they have howtos in thir topic, I believe.
[09:22] <StoneNote> LinuxProbie, probably not. Mine keeps going out to so I wind up doing a # chmod 666 /dev/audio | chmod 666 /dev/dsp | chmod 666 /dev/mixer to bring it back.  So like if I open totem and it doesn't work, I enter those commands into a shell as root, close totem, open totem and I have sound again. I'd like to know what keeps stepping on it.
[09:22] <madhatter349> what does dsp1 mean
[09:22] <ferronica> Pelo : dependency is not satisfiable: libc6
[09:23] <michup> to the answer for my question about how to convert swf to avi pyvnc2swf supports that either didnt notice i
[09:23] <ferronica> Pelo : so how to install and use Deluge???
[09:23] <michup> it*
[09:23] <Rooy> Haekke: i think root (you :) ) wouldn't mind if there's no reserved space on a data drive
[09:23] <nox-Hand> Anyone know where I can start learning Japanese for cheap?
[09:23] <michup>  this is my script which makes it works
[09:23] <LinuxProbie> StoneNote: Sounds like your problems are worse than mine. My audio just starts making funny popping noises if I;m running anything that may require the usage of the high-def stuff.
[09:23] <Azzkikr> nox-Hand: yeah thats pretty much on-topic here
[09:23] <strager> Hi, I'm resizing my ext3 partition with parted, and I'm wondering if there's a safe method to cancel the operation without losing my data.

[09:50] <Jowi> Ahorner, gnome-system-monitor
[09:50] <Ahorner> wow pretty similar
[09:50] <SnrWhippy> shortcut for sys mon?
[09:50] <Jowi> Ahorner, htop is quite nice (console) as well

[09:50] <jjido> mount: Mounting /cdrom on /root/cdrom failed: Invalid argument
[09:50] <jjido> chroot: cannot execute debconf-communicate: No such file or directory
[09:51] <Ahorner> how long should make take on a 12 mb package?
[09:51] <Jowi> jjido, does /root/cdrom exist?
[09:51] <strager> Ahorner: What package?
[09:51] <patinger> i have just joint ubuntu
[09:51] <Ahorner> strager: wine
[09:51] <strager> Ahorner: And is that 12MB for the source files uncompressed?
[09:51] <spasticteapot> I got my THINKPAD BACK!
[09:51] <strager> Ahorner: Why you be compiling wine?
[09:51] <spasticteapot> Whee!
[09:51] <Ahorner> strager: i think
[09:51] <jjido> Jowi: yes
[09:51] <xircx> when i install wine do i need to restart
[09:51] <spasticteapot> Can anyone point me to the location of the Xubuntu Feisty ISO?
[09:51] <Ahorner> strager: needed to change something for mouse settings
[09:51] <xircx> cuz it wont open
[09:51] <[WaZ] > Ahorner: sudo apt-get install wine
[09:51] <Flannel> xircx: no.
[09:52] <Jowi> jjido, how do you mount it? and what type of cd is it?
[09:52] <strager> Ahorner: So you touched the sources eh?
[09:52] <xircx> iv clicked on it and it hights and thats all
[09:52] <Ahorner> [WaZ] : thx but thats not what i needed
[09:52] <[WaZ] > ok
[09:52] <Ahorner> yes why
[09:52] <Ahorner> only had to add one line
[09:52] <|thunder> hey all, whats a good ram to swap ratio ?
[09:52] <Ahorner> hope it worked or im gonna have to recompile lol
[09:52] <Flannel> spasticteapot: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/beta/
[09:52] <jjido> Jowi: I am not interested in mounting it, I want to boot into Ubuntu using the CD image
[09:52] <Ahorner> 2 times the swap
[09:53] <strager> Ahorner: Just run make, then make install.  Be sure to uninstall the deb package first...
[09:53] <xircx> is wine a realy laggy program?
[09:53] <[WaZ] > compiling time depends on your CPU of course
[09:53] <Ahorner> deb package?
[09:53] <strager> Ahorner: That is, before make installing
[09:53] <strager> Ahorner: remove wine from apt first.
[09:53] <Ahorner> i have to do make depend first silly
[09:53] <patinger> hi
[09:53] <FD-Spuddy> hi how are you - You are Speaking to Spuddys Bot
[09:53] <Ahorner> o yeah i did
[09:53] <SnrWhippy> i havent actually got anything running with wine yet
[09:53] <Ahorner> snr, its worked fine for me on everything ive needed
[09:53] <SnrWhippy> i installed it and couldnt think of a prog to get
[09:53] <Jowi> |thunder, depends on what software you use. I use a gig for 512MB ram but I've noticed that my system has used maximum 250MB.
[09:53] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: I got IE 6 to run ;-)
[09:54] <strager> [WaZ] : Why would you want to do that?  ;P
[09:54] <Flannel> |thunder: most recommend 2x.  Although If you've got a gig of RAM, a gig of swap ought to be fine.
[09:54] <Ahorner> 1e6 works fine on wine
[09:54] <SnrWhippy> yeah thats the thing i thought yeah i'll use ie7
[09:54] <[WaZ] > strager: I make websites
[09:54] <Ahorner> 7 doesnt work at all
[09:54] <strager> [WaZ] : Ah right.
[09:54] <Flannel> |thunder: if you're hibernating, you'll need at least as much swap as you have RAM
[09:54] <xircx> i have a few id like to run but i need to get this working first
[09:54] <SnrWhippy> but i would have to boot into windows validate my copy to get a download
[09:54] <jjido> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1229101
[09:54] <Jowi> jjido, so this is when you boot the live/desktop cd and not an already installed system?
[09:54] <strager> [WaZ] : When I webdev, making it IE-conforming is the last thing on my mind, honestly.
[09:54] <Ahorner> i have one if you need
[09:54] <[WaZ] > strager: Im not a masochist ;-)
[09:54] <Ahorner> i can send it over right now

[09:58] <Flannel> SnrWhippy: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[09:58] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: it should do that automatically
[09:58] <Jowi> jjido, normally, I would check if the cdrom entry in fstab is ok. but if this is a homebrew live cd I do not know.

[09:59] <SnrWhippy> even for your graphics?
[09:59] <xircx> hmm

[10:02] <Arkaitz> the thing is that I installed Ubuntu on a external USB HD and it seems it cant access to it
[10:02] <Jowi> Arkaitz, or fixboot maybe.
[10:02] <Ahorner> ferronica: thats weird

[10:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xorg.confg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:03] <Jowi> jjido, can't argue with that as long as the boot understand that it should look for them on the disk instead of the cd.
[10:03] <ferronica> Deluge given me this error  when i opened it --->PopupNotifier: not all necessary dependencies are installed. To install them, on Ubuntu run: apt-get python-notify notification-daemon

[10:04] <LightHammer> somebody knows a good TV-Viewer for Edgy? (Sources and deb packages)?
[10:04] <Ahorner> so after make install a program should be ready to use?
[10:04] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  yeah
[10:04] <LightHammer> yeh
[10:04] <gnomefreak> Ahorner: yes if it doesnt fail
[10:04] <[WaZ] > ferronica: try apt-get install python-notify notification-daemon
[10:05] <LightHammer> but if you want everybody to aces to this programm you should run "sudo make install"
[10:05] <Ahorner> ok
[10:05] <liquiddoom> !vnc
[10:05] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX

[10:06] <liquiddoom> Erm.
[10:06] <liquiddoom> FreeNX is faster
[10:06] <LightHammer> ehm, looking for the sources or deb packages of a good TV-viewer like WinTV under Windows
[10:06] <LightHammer> for 6.10
[10:07] <xircx> wow this terminal stuffs not all that hard
[10:07] <xircx> lmao
[10:07] <[WaZ] > ferronica: try installing restricted sources in System>Admin>Software sources
[10:08] <[WaZ] > ferronica: just check restricted and multiverse
[10:08] <SnrWhippy> yeah but vnc works on more platforms?
[10:08] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: yes
[10:08] <julio> nobody? :(
[10:09] <SnrWhippy> always the winner
[10:09] <ferronica> [WaZ] : in Rpos.
[10:09] <budluva> how do i remove a module from being loaded?
[10:09] <assasukasse> hi someone could help me with NFS i can't mount a share!

[10:09] <budluva> i put 2 modules in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and rebooted, but they still got loaded
[10:09] <StoneNote> LightHammer,  kdetv - TV viewer for KDE zapping - television viewer for the GNOME environment
[10:09] <ferronica> [WaZ] : ok done
[10:09] <SnrWhippy> what would be infinitely useful is a remote desktop that works over http or https
[10:09] <[WaZ] > ferronica: did it update?
[10:09] <[WaZ] > or reload
[10:10] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: VNC does
[10:10] <ferronica> [WaZ] : yes i clicked Reload
[10:10] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: with a java applet
[10:10] <LightHammer> yeh i use kdetv but zapping wouldn't start
[10:10] <[WaZ] > ferronica: ok now try installing again
[10:10] <SnrWhippy> you need port 5900 for that or 5800 i think
[10:10] <ferronica> [WaZ] : ok
[10:10] <LightHammer> not the version from apt or the source version
[10:10] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: ah maybe
[10:10] <SnrWhippy> yeah defo
[10:11] <SnrWhippy> we need more devel on remote desktop that works over web traffic
[10:11] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: whats wrong with opening a port?
[10:11] <SnrWhippy> a large company doesnt open any ports easily
[10:11] <ferronica> [WaZ] : E: Couldn't find package python-notify

[10:12] <[WaZ] > ferronica: that might be the problem
[10:12] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  the LiveCD doesnt detect my Ethernet Card so I cant connect to the internet from the liveCD
[10:12] <xircx> o.O
[10:12] <LightHammer> another question, how can i autostart a bash command?
[10:12] <ferronica> [WaZ] : downloded from here-----> http://www.getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=Deluge
[10:13] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: have you tried dhcpd in terminal?
[10:13] <LightHammer> autostarting by starting the system
[10:13] <Jowi> SnrWhippy, you can use port 80 for vnc. and if you want it secure tunnel it through ssh.
[10:13] <[WaZ] > ferronica: don(t know that site
[10:13] <LightHammer> a Fan-regulator for my graphiccard "nvclock -f -F 90"
[10:13] <Wibble-> Hey... I've got an application which needs openmotif 2.1.30-4... The suggestion is to run on SuSE, where the RPM is available... but I want to run on Ubuntu.  Can anyone tell me how I can do this?
[10:13] <xircx> what dose ubuntu have for wireless and ethernet drivers
[10:14] <Kevlar_Soul>  no one here knows of a well made CD audio ripper program that uses GUI of KDE or GNOME?
[10:14] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  it says dhcpd command not found
[10:14] <LightHammer> use alien to convert the RPM into a Deb packaghe
[10:14] <[WaZ] > hmmm
[10:14] <SnrWhippy> jowi i wonder if you can get it through a proxy port 8080
[10:14] <Flannel> Kevlar_Soul: sound juicer
[10:14] <SnrWhippy> maybe my company's isa server is blocking it at application level
[10:14] <xircx> when i booted it picked up every thing unlike linspire it took weeks just to find me drivers
[10:14] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: dhclient3
[10:15] <Jowi> SnrWhippy, depends on the proxy. vnc does not care which port it runs on.
[10:15] <[WaZ] > why did i say dhvpd anyways?
[10:15] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  No broadcast interfaces found - exiting
[10:15] <SnrWhippy> yeah isa server
[10:15] <Jowi> SnrWhippy, (apart from the java front-end that is)
[10:15] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: what network card?
[10:15] <ferronica> Any one who have idea??
[10:16] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  Ethernet 10/100BT integrated network interface

[10:24] <[WaZ] > xircx: I wanted you to pastebin it so i can take a look at it
[10:25] <rambo3> [WaZ] , you need to mount ubuntu on hd first

[10:25] <mzracer360> how do I give my webserver permission to /home/derek/... ?
[10:25] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  hd0 would be the name of the partition?
[10:25] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: that is of course if both windows and linux run on the same hd
[10:25] <wizi> i am glad
[10:25] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: yes

[10:26] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: oh, ive never tried on an external hd
[10:26] <xircx> waz
[10:26] <Flannel> mzracer360: make a public_html folder inside of your homedir.  then go to http://your.ip/~derek/
[10:26] <Arkaitz> and since I installed Linux in the External HD
[10:26] <SnrWhippy> actually terminal services gateway looks exiting
[10:26] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: guess it must be sda0 then?
[10:26] <Arkaitz> I cant access either Linux nor Windows
[10:26] <xircx> i will paste it in the privet window
[10:26] <assasukasse> if i put a bin folder in my home, can i launch the commands just by the name? for example if i make a script and put there can i launch it directly?
[10:26] <McFrosty> Should I use wine vs vmware?
[10:26] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: you can always reinstall MBR with a windows installation CD
[10:26] <scud> why is server 6.10 and 6.06 support expires at different times? i would think 6.06 would expire before 6.10
[10:26] <[WaZ] > just format /MBR
[10:26] <xircx> or not
[10:26] <wizi> argh
[10:26] <xircx> how do i pastebin?
[10:26] <[WaZ] > xircx: pastebin
[10:27] <wizi> i am unable to download galternatives over my apt-get

[10:27] <[WaZ] > !pastebin > xircx
[10:27] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  with a windows xphome edition cd for example?
[10:27] <erUSUL> scud: it is special
[10:27] <kane77> scud, 6.06 is LTS (long time support)
[10:27] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: yes
[10:27] <erUSUL> !lts
[10:27] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[10:27] <scud> gotcha
[10:27] <shiris1> ok guys, I need to install a .deb on the cmd line. The .deb conflicts with another driver. So what command should I use?
[10:27] <xircx> in the terminal?
[10:27] <MegaTrousers> I am compiling a driver and I am getting this part way through the build: "/bin/sh: scripts/mod/modpost: not found". I have installed the kernel-source and headers packages. I am running latest Feisty beta.
[10:27] <scud> should i use 6.06 or 6.10?
[10:27] <[WaZ] > !pastebin
[10:27] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:28] <xircx> kk hold on

[10:28] <gizmo_the_great1> Hi. Is there an application that is really good for handling digital photos from a digital camera - an application that will show me all the EXIF data of the JPEG's etc?
[10:28] <MegaTrousers> THanks
[10:28] <xircx> im loading it
[10:28] <shiris1> xircx: were u telling me or somebody else?
[10:28] <Flannel> mzracer360: You need to make sure it's readable by the php user (www-data).
[10:29] <[WaZ] > gizmo_the_great1: digikam?
[10:29] <SnrWhippy> what about picasa anyway of running that in ubuntu
[10:29] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: yes
[10:29] <xircx> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12802/
[10:29] <mzracer360> Flannel: can you explain to me how I do that?  thanks
[10:29] <SnrWhippy> trough wine perhaps
[10:29] <xircx> sound be it
[10:29] <Jowi> wizi, galternatives is in the universe repo. you will need to add it.
[10:29] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: theres a linux version
[10:29] <xircx> should *
[10:29] <Jowi> !universe > wizi
[10:29] <erUSUL> SnrWhippy: google ships a linux version
[10:29] <xircx> waz did you get that?
[10:29] <Flannel> mzracer360: set your homedir to be readable by others
[10:29] <mzracer360> Flannel: I've already done a chmod 777 on the folder without any luck
[10:29] <robokop> how do i get higher resolutions and mouse support on tty1 till 6
[10:30] <SnrWhippy> yeah picasa is a great prog for images
[10:30] <Flannel> mzracer360: 777, eh?  Thats... not ever a good solution.
[10:30] <SnrWhippy> right ill be installing
[10:30] <Jowi> robokop, you change the framebuffer resolution
[10:30] <Jowi> !framebuffer | robokop
[10:30] <gizmo_the_great1> WaZ : thanks - I will try that and see.
[10:30] <ubotu> robokop: If you would like information on framebuffers, please visit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer
[10:30] <Flannel> mzracer360: I imagine it has soemthing to do with PHP being jailed.  You might ask in ##php, they'll be able to help more.
[10:30] <rambo3> [WaZ] , stop giving wrong advice
[10:30] <mzracer360> Flannel: thats what a teacher of mine had me do when i asked him
[10:30] <[WaZ] > rambo3: okay ;-)
[10:30] <Flannel> mzracer360: your teacher doesn't care about your security, apparently.
[10:30] <snez> anyone else having problems with the standard c++ libraries of Edgy?
[10:31] <mzracer360> Flannel: lol, guess not
[10:31] <[WaZ] > xircx: have you tried pressing Escape at boot? you have an entry for windows
[10:31] <xircx> hmm
[10:31] <xircx> oh i have no problem booting both os
[10:31] <xircx> lol
[10:31] <xircx> my grub works just fine
[10:31] <SnrWhippy> Waz what wrong info
[10:31] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: not sure
[10:32] <SnrWhippy> ok picasa is good just found linux version
[10:32] <thezenmaster> What's going on with GAIM??
[10:32] <thezenmaster> does anyone uses it?
[10:32] <SnrWhippy> yeah im using it now
[10:32] <SnrWhippy> its ok
[10:32] <[WaZ] > rambo3: you don't need to mount anything to reinstall grub using a live cd ;-)
[10:32] <gizmo_the_great1> SnrWhippy: can you give me the URL? I am currently downloading digikam which I think might be OK but in the meantime...
[10:32] <thezenmaster> it's in a non stop crashing trick
[10:33] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  by doing format /MBR I wont lose any data, right?
[10:33] <SnrWhippy> http://picasa.google.com/linux/thanks-deb.html
[10:33] <thezenmaster> is it a bug?
[10:33] <SnrWhippy> maybe there is a way of doing it with apt-get though
[10:33] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: maybe you should google it, I think that was the command for Windows 98
[10:33] <sh00t1> http://gaim.sourceforge.net/downloads.php
[10:33] <thezenmaster> I can't have MSN open for more than 1-2 minutes
[10:33] <Mirthy> Anyone know what type of files Cinelerra can open?
[10:33] <[WaZ] > Arkaitz: but im 100% positive you can restore the MBR using your windows CD
[10:33] <SnrWhippy> sorry thezenmaster its working fine for me
[10:33] <stevethepirate> You can. I just did it
[10:34] <SnrWhippy> over my wireless
[10:34] <thezenmaster> what's your version?
[10:34] <Jowi> Arkaitz, ask in ##windows. i think the commands to use for XP are fixmbr or fixboot but unsure since I haven't used it in a looong time
[10:34] <sh00t1> fdisk.exe /MBR
[10:34] <stevethepirate> Open recovery console.. Then Fixmbr
[10:34] <SnrWhippy> 2.0.0beta3.1
[10:34] <Arkaitz> [[WaZ] ]  one las question, Now on the live CD appear my 2 partitions /home and / on the desktop.
[10:34] <Arkaitz> that means that they are well created
[10:34] <Arkaitz> isnt there any way to make GRUB read them=
[10:35] <Arkaitz> ?
[10:35] <xircx> slow
[10:35] <sh00t1> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/69013

But when I create a file to test the php page (info.php) with the text "<?php phpinfo();?>" (without the quotes) and point my browser to http://mydomain.com/info.php it tries to get me to download the file, instead of displaying the page. Ideas?
[10:36] <lorsche> ethernomad - home directory. its hidden.
[10:36] <[WaZ] > just installed ndiswrapper drivers and Network-Manager

[10:37] <Megaqwerty> rambo3: It's Megaqwerty, and is that a command?
[10:38] <SnrWhippy> i was guns blazing b4
[10:38] <Jowi> Wibble-, change font (don't ask me how). char 57 should be the forward slash "/" which is quite important.
[10:38] <SnrWhippy> now im looking for a good rollback prog
[10:38] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: Id deselect the beryl repos
[10:38] <ethernomad> lorsche interesting tidbit of info...thanks again!

[10:39] <shirish> guys how do I install a .deb on my desktop & it conflicts with another .deb , I want this .deb to over-write the other .deb
[10:39] <Jowi> Wibble-, strange since you just used the forward slash.
[10:39] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: nah but when they update they sometimes break :S
[10:39] <Megaqwerty> rambo3: why do you think none of the tutorials I've read include that command?
[10:39] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: especially using svn
[10:39] <Luca82> hi all
[10:39] <SnrWhippy> oh yeah i think im on svn also
[10:39] <SnrWhippy> it only worked on svn
[10:39] <Wibble-> Jowi: Ahhh, but this isn't a motif app
[10:40] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: so I just deselected the repos so it doesn't automatically ask for updating them
[10:40] <shirish> anybody can help me?
[10:40] <ken> hello
[10:40] <ken> what with?
[10:40] <Jowi> Wibble-, oh only with motif. no idea about that i'm afraid.

[10:40] <Luca82> sorry, but AcetoneISO is opensources? or is freesoftware?
[10:40] <SnrWhippy> but i do like my cube
[10:40] <[WaZ] > SnrWhippy: Why? Its pretty stable

[10:40] <shirish> I wanna install a .deb & it conflicts with other .deb , I wanna over-write it, how do I do tht?
[10:41] <Wibble-> thanks for your help

[10:46] <reyn> strager, could it be a 64 issue ?

[10:47] <[WaZ] > shirish: you can always apt-get remove nameoftheckage
[10:47] <shirish> Waz: the only thing I wanna know is what the overwrite flag is for, whether the driver works or not, tht's equally good. I can easily remove the old driver & do an apt-get for the older driver.

[10:55] <noelferreira> how can i activate my swap memory?
[10:55] <ian_> ive done a bit of reading on this but cant find anything to help and was wondering if anyone here could give me a hand. i know that scripts exist for this but i was wondering if there was a package to do it:- im looking for an alcohol 120% similar app for ubuntu, something to mount isos, ccd, mdf etc - as i said i know scripts exist but anyone know of any packages?
[10:55] <Jowi> shirish, then you can put a modeline in xorg.conf. I've got the 945GM using i810 driver with 914resolution and wrote a few lines about it at http://www.burninghands.eu if you want to have a look. it is under "articles" -> linux on intel mac
[10:55] <strager> ian_: Look up the ubuntu guide
[10:55] <rambo3> Megaqwerty, well that or in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[10:55] <CrackUhToeUh> hello everyone
[10:55] <strager> ian_: There's a shiny entry in there.
[10:56] <rdesh> ian_: i'm pretty sure i've done taht with just the mount command
[10:56] <ian_> tried it - doesnt work
[10:56] <thezenmaster> all repos are enabled but the only version available is 2.0.0b3.1  i want to try b6 and see if my problems persist
[10:56] <pirea> noelferreira: sudo swapon -a
[10:56] <strager> ian_: You need to set up a loop mount thingy...
[10:56] <bbm4n> a quick question: what does it take to ship something with the original ubuntu disto?
[10:56] <strager> ian_: Again, see the ubuntu guide (first link in google)

[10:57] <pirea> There's a simple line you can do in the shell but it slips my mind atm.

[10:58] <strager> kane77: man mode

[10:58] <Death_Sargent> does fsck at boot actually repair problems

[10:58] <strager> er, chmod..

[10:59] <Steil> is there a trivial way to convert a resier3 fs to ext3?
[10:59] <VCSkier> does anyone know when or if there will be a feisty kernel update to fix the serial ata issue, or if there is a workaround.  my feisty still won't boot on my thinkpad t41, and now the live cd's partitioner in the beta won't even properly show my partition table.
[11:00] <soundray> Steil: "trivial" would be backup, format, restore.
[11:00] <Steil> VCSkier: #Ubuntu+1
[11:00] <pirea> Steil: Far as I know, you'll have to move the files over to another volume and back. ;\
[11:00] <Away> soundray yup yup.. but I want to do it with fdisk, for example give 10 gb to "/" .. 5 GB to /home and another 5 GB to /swap (for example), how can I do that in fdisk ?
[11:00] <SeveredCross> Steil: Formatting is the only way I believe.
[11:00] <SeveredCross> Away: fdisk /dev/sda
[11:00] <CrackUhToeUh> Fedora pwns Ubuntu

[11:12] <soundray> Away: no
[11:12] <kazuka> hey all
[11:13] <kazuka> i am screaming inside of my head
[11:13] <soundray> Away: to specify a 2.5GB size, you would type '+2500M' in fdisk (not the quotes obviously)
[11:13] <lynucs> hi, anyone ever used lmms with vst plugins??
[11:13] <kazuka> hi lynucs
[11:13] <lynucs> hi kazuka
[11:13] <kazuka> not me
[11:14] <lynucs> anyone used lmms at all? :)
[11:14] <Away> soundray got it. Thanks again!
[11:14] <lynucs> !lmms

[11:15] <willorbill> #banshee
[11:15] <lynucs> Jowi, thanks a lot
[11:15] <dasis> hello
[11:15] <soundray> lynucs: your best chance is to describe the problem as precisely as you can. If someone knows, they will help.
[11:16] <lynucs> soundray, you mean in this chan? :D
[11:16] <dasis> soundray help me
[11:16] <rpc>  is there a way to force ntfs-3g to mount an ntfs partition? ntfsfix didn't seem to help
[11:16] <soundray> lynucs: especially in this channel, but it's generally a good idea.
[11:16] <soundray> dasis: describe the problem to the channel
[11:16] <lynucs> soundray, yeah, you're right ;)
[11:17] <soundray> lynucs: none of the regulars here like the "anyone" questions, especially ubotu:
[11:17] <soundray> !anyone | Lynucs
[11:17] <ubotu> Lynucs: 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?

[11:23] <soundray> sp0ro: funny, you put this lengthy preamble, and when you get to the actual problem, you say it's "still not working".
[11:23] <soundray> sp0ro: how is anyone supposed to help you on that basis?
[11:23] <sp0ro> soundray: I was just trying to give as much information as possible, geesh.
[11:24] <soundray> !doesntwork | sp0ro
[11:24] <ubotu> sp0ro: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.

[11:24] <z3r0ph3wl> if i have HP notebook with windows xp and restore partition - can i install ubuntu as dual boot and work normaly with both?
[11:25] <soundray> z3r0ph3wl: yes
[11:25] <soundray> !dualboot | z3r0ph3wl
[11:25] <ubotu> z3r0ph3wl: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[11:25] <sp0ro> soundray: I am trying to get ubuntu to recognize my video card, I kind of figured that was obvious after my first sentence...I wasn't trying to piss anyone off, there is no need to get offensive about it...
[11:25] <soundray> z3r0ph3wl: I would recommend booting a live CD and backing up the restore partition with partimage.
[11:26] <soundray> sp0ro: have a bit of humour about it. Even ubotu sees the lighter side.
[11:26] <uplinked> soundray, thanks for the filename, but that's not the right icon. i'm looking through /usr/share/icons/gnome for more, but do you have any ideas? it's the speaker (with sound waves) that sits on the gnome panel
[11:26] <soundray> sp0ro: instead of complaining, improve your error report & your chance of getting help here
[11:27] <riaal> Evening all, Im planing to have a party but don't wont ppl to mess around whit my computer.. what way would you lock it? all default screensavers look really nasty in 1680x1050 (its goint to play the musik)
[11:27] <z3r0ph3wl> and second question i have HP compaq nx6310 with broadcom wireless card. then i tryed ubuntu 6.10 on it i had problems with it. i searched for solution and find one using ndiswrapper but it didnt work for me. anyboy knows how to?
[11:27] <sp0ro> soundray: I wasn't complaining until you made it sound as if this channel isn't for newbies and that I shouldn't even ask for help...
[11:28] <soundray> z3r0ph3wl: that way you can delete the restore partition. Let ubuntu's installer resize your Windows partition if still required
[11:28] <soundray> z3r0ph3wl: broadcom cards are still finicky, but they will work better in the new release.
[11:28] <sp0ro> soundray: It's kind of hard when I get criticism that isn't even constructive. What should I change in my question if I have no idea what to add to it?
[11:28] <Jaime> heya
[11:28] <z3r0ph3wl> when new realease comes out?
[11:28] <soundray> sp0ro: put yourself in my position. What do you think I would want to know?
[11:29] <soundray> z3r0ph3wl: end of April
[11:29] <z3r0ph3wl> okay thank u
[11:29] <soundray> sp0ro: hint: something about how your graphics fail
[11:29] <sp0ro> soundray: I have no idea because I know nearly nothing about linux, that's why I am here. to try to learn.
[11:29] <neeewww> hello
[11:29] <neeewww> ive just upgraded
[11:29] <soundray> sp0ro: moaning is not the way you will learn, so get over it and improve your help request

[11:32] <uplinked> soundray, the icon i'd like to change *looks like* /usr/share/icons/gnome/24x24/status/audio-volume-high.png, but that clearly has a transparent background. Is there something else I could do to make it transparent?
[11:32] <sp0ro> soundray: I can't run cedega without 3d acceleration and I am 99.9% sure that 3d acceleration isn't enabled if the system doesn't recognize the video card. I upgraded to the restricted linux module (like the guide from the website I listed in my original inquiry said to) and then downloaded the nvidia-glx drivers(6800xt was listed for glx, not legacy drivers). The system doesn't recognize the card still after a reboot of X and then
[11:32] <sp0ro>  a complete restart of the box. I don't know what else to add because I
[11:33] <sp0ro> soundray: am not sure what else there is to know at this point

[11:33] <ph1zzle> hey all
[11:33] <raylu> how do I install grub? I had XP, installed ubuntu (which installed grubloader), and then installed vista (which overrode grub)
[11:33] <gnomefreak> !grub | raylu
[11:33] <ubotu> raylu: 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
[11:33] <Igor> raylu: SuperGrupDisk
[11:33] <uplinked> soundray, thanks for trying. #gnome is the place to go, or other?
[11:34] <Igor> raylu: SuperGrubDisk
[11:34] <dyrne> sp0ro: id get video card setup and something like tremulous working before fooling with cedega
[11:34] <Away> soundray does directory exist /etc/X11/xorg.conf for Ubuntu?
[11:34] <arch_> Does anyone know why "sudo gedit <filepath>" would fail to function after editing /etc/network/interfaces?? (note: "sudo vi <filepath>" still works)  Thanks in advance.
[11:34] <soundray> sp0ro: your problem isn't the lspci output. Don't get hung up about that. I still don't know how your graphics are failing.
[11:34] <ph1zzle> I have a serious question I was hoping someone could help me with... I think I may have destroyed apt-get on my system, I accidently deleted some perl modules that were in /usr/local where I was working with a second version of perl and now when I run apt-get I get this --> http://rafb.net/p/emqSqA68.html
[11:34] <soundray> Away: no, it's a file
[11:34] <sp0ro> dryne: I haven't even tried to get cedega running a this point, I am just trying to get the video card working at this point.
[11:35] <soundray> uplinked: I don't know, you could try
[11:35] <uplinked> soundray, thanks.
[11:35] <Away> soundray ok, does it exist in ubuntu?
[11:35] <gnomefreak> soundray: his issue on feisty?
[11:35] <dyrne> sp0ro: nvidia? i havent used it but alot of people are having success with envy
[11:35] <Noxville> Hi
[11:35] <Noxville> Anyone here?
[11:35] <gnomefreak> sp0ro: edgy or feisty?
[11:35] <soundray> gnomefreak: not sure
[11:35] <MasterManX2006> unbuntu that good
[11:35] <sp0ro> dryne: I'll check that out, I was having nothing but problems with envy and ATI. Hopefully it's different with nvidia. :) Thanks for the suggestion
[11:35] <dyrne> Noxville: hi
[11:36] <sp0ro> gnomefreak: edgy
[11:36] <dasis> How install torrent ubuntu?
[11:36] <Away> daedalus_ depends on what torrent client you want.
[11:36] <gnomefreak> sp0ro: did you install from nvidia.com?
[11:36] <gnomefreak> at any time before this issue
[11:36] <sp0ro> gnomefreak: No, I followed the instructions from this guide; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29
[11:37] <gnomefreak> ok cool.
[11:37] <dyrne> dasis: you want a torrent application?
[11:37] <ph1zzle> does anyone know where I may be able to get the debconf perl modules by chance?
[11:38] <sp0ro> gnomefreak: It's a fresh installation of edgy for the most part. The only thing I have done is updated the critical packages and followed the instructions on that guide exactly.
[11:38] <ulisse> I have a problem with cupsys, if I try to add a printer it hangs a lot of time on "reading database", then I get the dialog but the result is a non working printer, without the "driver" tab in the prefs panel. Can someone help me? I'm on Feisty
[11:38] <dasis> dyrne i want install, but i don't now how do tit
[11:38] <dyrne> ulisse: in localhost:631 or using gnome tool?
[11:38] <gnomefreak> !restricted | MasterManX2006
[11:38] <ubotu> MasterManX2006: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[11:39] <dyrne> dasis: install ubuntu?
[11:39] <dasis> yes ubunt
[11:39] <ulisse> dyrne: I can't either connect to localhost:631
[11:39] <arch_> I think I have a pretty simple problem:  I need to execute this command: /usr/bin/conky after everything else boots up first (conky fails to draw properly if initalized before Beryl), I have been told this can be done in /etc/init.d/rc.local but I have no clue where to put it in that file.  Any ideas?
[11:39] <ulisse> dyrne: but I'm sure that cupsys is up
[11:39] <dasis> dyrne in terminal install
[11:40] <dyrne> dasis: you can download the iso file from ubuntu.com then select 'burn image' in your cd burning app to burn it to cd. change the speed if it lets to to as slow as possible
[11:40] <dyrne> dasis: ah sorry thought you were inexperienced user
[11:41] <gnomefreak> night everyone
[11:41] <Snoppy> Hi i'm a new user with Ubuntu i have a little problem every time i try to use /etc/apache2/apache2.conf i get "permission denied"
[11:41] <Snoppy> are there someone there can help ?
[11:42] <unixman> snoopy, what are you trying to do?
[11:42] <dyrne> ulisse: i think youd just need to edit /etc/group and add cupsys to the shadow group or do it in system ->administration i guess. then sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart. i think thats it
[11:42] <Snoppy> I try to "open" the conf file
[11:43] <unixman> try typing # vi /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[11:43] <ulisse> dyrne, so I have to change the line to this: "shadow:x:42:cupsys"  right?
[11:44] <Snoppy> okay, there came a lots of lines
[11:44] <eyalw> u think its safe to install fiesty? or should i wait for the official release?
[11:44] <addams> i'd wait
[11:44] <SeveredCross> Wait for the release eyalw, it won't be much longer.
[11:45] <addams> If I install something from the command line, could it have a virus
[11:45] <eyalw> u right
[11:45] <addams> ?
[11:45] <dyrne> ulisse: yeah if more than one user just :user1,user2
[11:45] <addams> It seems highly unlikely i could be sent to a hacker site, if I don't supply the addres, just sudo get install poop
[11:45] <unixman> yes thats right!  vi is a command you can use to edit the file.  I just realised that you are newbie.  Perhaps vi is not the best.  Hit the following key sequence " esc : q return "
[11:45] <eyalw> fiesty sounds great, but i'll wait
[11:47] <unixman> Snoopy, did that get you out and back to the command line?  If so, try  # gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[11:47] <micahcowan> Best to suggest using "editor", which should use the default editor that the user has configured (nano, by default).
[11:47] <Snoppy> I did not came out i just get the message "recording"
[11:47] <micahcowan> Or, yeah, gedit can work.
[11:48] <jubei_> guys "make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.15-28-server/build: No such file or directory" .. er.. why?:)
[11:48] <matthew_> how do I find out what my cdrom is?  like, what it's /dev/ name is?
[11:48] <micahcowan> Snoppy, did you type the escape key before typing ": q <return>"?
[11:48] <matthew__> how do I find out what my cdrom /dev/ location is?
[11:49] <Snoppy> when i touch esc i gets biiiip
[11:49] <matthew_> oops
[11:49] <Snoppy> and nothing happens
[11:49] <raylu> generally, it's "safe" to install it. whether it's really usable depends on your specifics :P
[11:49] <neeewww> my graphics are really poor in ubuntu. so im downloading drivers from ati website. will they work? i have radeonx1300 mobile
[11:49] <SeveredCross> matthew_: Isn't it just /dev/cdrom?
[11:49] <raylu> er...ignore that
[11:49] <SeveredCross> neeewww: They will work, yes.
[11:49] <raylu> anyway, i think i got grub loader working
[11:49] <SeveredCross> What you need to do is download the driver.
[11:49] <micahcowan> Okay, that's fine. Try typing ": q <return>" again, then. That's colon, q, return key.
[11:49] <neeewww> ok good.
[11:49] <raylu> with that link; here goes :D
[11:49] <SeveredCross> chmod it executable (chmod +x ati-driver-filename)
[11:50] <SeveredCross> And there's an option you have to give it
[11:50] <SeveredCross> But I don't remember it right now..
[11:50] <SeveredCross> !ati
[11:50] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:50] <unixman> snoopy, try hitting "shift z shift z"
[11:50] <matthew_> SeveredCross:  No, that's a symbolic link to scd0 which when I open I get the message 'cannot not open...'
[11:50] <Snoppy> unixman: i'm out now
[11:51] <assasukasse> i had a NFS share mounted, the machine with the share went offline, now i can't use nautilus neither ls my home dir, how do i kill the NFS share process? i tried mount -f but keeps saying resource busy
[11:51] <unixman> good!  Now try "gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf"
[11:51] <chirs25> hi i am trying to setup mail on a ubuntu server
[11:51] <chirs25> i have imap and postfix configured now i want to test it but how. currently i only have an dyndns domain
[11:51] <Snoppy> -bash gedit: command not found
[11:52] <micahcowan> chirs25, in order to send mail to it from the outside, you need a DNS MX record for the email domain to point at your mail server.
[11:53] <unixman> snoopy, type "sudo apt-get install gedit"
[11:53] <micahcowan> unixman, there's always nano, which should be preinstalled...
[11:54] <mike> list
[11:54] <chirs25> micahcowan: is this possible with dyndns?
[11:54] <ulisse> dyrne: nothing to do, I added cupsys to shadow and restarted it, but nothing changes
[11:54] <unixman> micahcowan, correct! But having gedit is not a bad thing and GUI is better for newbie!
[11:54] <lufis> Where can I get good, free Linux fonts?
[11:54] <chirs25> micahcowan: or can i send to an ip for test purpose? user@ip?
[11:54] <micahcowan> chirs25, unfortunately, I know little about dyndns.
[11:54] <micahcowan> It depends on what mail program you use: many don't support user@[ip] .
[11:55] <micahcowan> However, if you just want to test a message going through, I can show you how to connect directly to postfix to send the message.
[11:55] <ulisse> dyrne: also, when i run gnome-cups-add, cupsd jumps to 100% cpu usage
[11:55] <Snoppy> its have begin something there looks like a update ?
[11:56] <chirs25> micahcowan: can i simulate incoming email from another mailserver that way?
[11:56] <tjl30> Hi I just discovered I had my jumper on my HD in the wrong place which I just fixed, but my grub loader still trys to boot to hdb1 which is now hda1
[11:56] <ardchoille> I need to package a few custom wallpapers for a friend who uses Windows XP. I haven't used Windows in years and am wondering how to package these images. Does Windows do .tar.gz or .tar.bz2? Can Windows recognise .png files or do I need to convert them to .gif or .jpg?
[11:56] <micahcowan> chirs25, yes. Did you get my pm?
[11:56] <tjl30> is there a way to edit grub from my live CD
[11:57] <lufis> tjl30: Try editing the /boot/grub/menu.lst file to reflect the changes
[11:57] <unixman> snoopy, whats happening now?
[11:57] <Snoppy> Its downloading many files
[11:57] <riaal> what file to edit for a user to be able to run only firefox?
[11:58] <shirish> guys who was it who sometime ago was giving me advice on i845 he has a Mac?
[11:58] <micahcowan> chirs25, or, if you give me the IP address, I can connect and send a test mail message.
[11:58] <micahcowan> I'd also need a valid destination email address.
[11:59] <chirs25> micahcowan: it is 84.16.252.254
[11:59] <riaal> is it hard to restrict a user for everything exept "firefox"?
[11:59] <micahcowan> chirs25, to whom shall I address the email address?
[11:59] <lufis> archangelpetro: Png works natively in XP, but not gz or bz
[11:59] <lufis> whoops, i meant ardchoille

[12:00] <archangelpetro> you*

[12:00] <lufis> ardchoille: Yep, zip works natively too
[12:00] <dingdong> i have bad luck with linux
[12:00] <lufis> ardchoille: You can open it up in windows explorer without any third party app
