[12:20] <Cosmonaut3030> xtknight: Do I need to mount the CD first?
[12:20] <eck> (or use a gui)

[12:23] <nice> Can someone help me with my wireless connection?? please
[12:23] <awesomess3> Supaplex: The power connector is loose and I was thinking about saudering it back to the mother board, or replacing the jack that holds the power connector to the mother board.
[12:23] <DualCortex> DarthDave: try googling. You won't get much help here to straighten your opinions, etc.
[12:24] <Zues_62> um comeone does anyone know or not

[12:24] <mrfreeman123> what is the loopback interface? (lo)
[12:24] <Supaplex> awesomess3: humm. you might need a spudger, if it has locking tabs or something.
[12:25] <aricz> Ok, so I edited /boot/grub/menu.lst and added vga=ask .. on boot it changed graphics-mode.. but after desktop loaded and I hit ctrl+alt+f1 it was the same mode as the previous one .. anyone have a clue what I'm doing wrong?
[12:25] <Zues_62> so sup does that scan disk it
[12:25] <Cosmonaut3030> After I "add" a CD to my sources.list, how do I update apt to look for packages on it?
[12:25] <hateyla> r00tintheb0x: in that log file nothing happend wrong. Show something as my VGA Trio3D
[12:25] <mrfreeman123> what is the loopback interface? (lo)
[12:25] <Supaplex> Zues_62: no, that just reports what type file thinks it is.
[12:25] <Zues_62> how do i scan it
[12:26] <Zues_62> coz its in the my computer but it wont mount
[12:26] <Supaplex> mrfreeman123: important. it's a virtual networking device that allows networking applications to communication on your system, to yoursystem.
[12:26] <Zues_62> it was fine last nite

[12:26] <frandavid100> is there a way to know how much bandwith is being consumed by two people connected to my wi-fi?

[12:26] <mrfreeman123> Supaplex: thanks :)
[12:26] <Zues_62> so will that fix the issue
[12:27] <nice> ber1,  no no no i want to know the path for my wireless
[12:27] <felixjet> hi
[12:27] <ber1> its wireless. it has no path.... trust your instincts... you'll find the way. may the force be with you.
[12:27] <Supaplex> Zues_62: yes. read the man page if you have deeper questions about it.
[12:27] <rockzman> can someone tell me if there is how to use a hd as boot to install my server ?

[12:28] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, sudo apt-get update

[12:28] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, treat apt the same as before

[12:28] <bruenig> !howdy | ubuntu_
[12:28] <ubotu> ubuntu_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:28] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: I did. apt-cdrom ended successfully.
[12:28] <Cosmonaut3030> then I tried apt-get update
[12:28] <rockzman> bruenig can you help me out
[12:28] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, no I mean treat apt like you did before, apt-get install will work just the same after. Act like the cd isn't there
[12:29] <zen> Where do I get debuild?

[12:29] <bruenig> rockzman, ask the channel
[12:29] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: You mean like just type in "apt-get install konqueror" or something?
[12:29] <Cosmonaut3030> I tried that.
[12:29] <Zues_62> it says bad superblock
[12:29] <Cosmonaut3030> It hasn't worked.
[12:29] <mzanfardino> hmmm... easier question: what app will a gnome user run to open an rdc connection?
[12:30] <Supaplex> Cosmonaut3030: define "don't work"
[12:30] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, does apt-cache show konqueror do anything
[12:30] <bruenig> !info konqueror
[12:30] <netdiggerxxx> Hallo
[12:30] <ubotu> konqueror: KDE's advanced file manager, web browser and document viewer. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu3.2 (edgy), package size 1953 kB, installed size 5280 kB
[12:30] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: Nope. Nothing.
[12:30] <ferret> mzanfardino: rdesktop
[12:30] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, therefore it isn't on the cd
[12:30] <mzanfardino> ferret: from cli?
[12:30] <Cosmonaut3030> Supaplex: Well, I get no results for anything.,
[12:30] <xtknight> !ipv6
[12:30] <Supaplex> Cosmonaut3030: what do you do/run?
[12:30] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: But I'm using the Kubuntu 6.06.1 CD?
[12:30] <ferret> mzanfardino: It uses X. o.O
[12:30] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[12:30] <bcardarella> How should I address a POP3 issue? I have Courier installed but my mail client cannot connect to my server via POP3....
[12:31] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, I am not sure exactly what packages are supposed to be on the cd, but open synaptic and search around
[12:31] <Cosmonaut3030> Supaplex: 6.06 Fluxbuntu
[12:31] <bcardarella> Rather how should I start troubleshooting?
[12:31] <ferret> mzanfardino: I'm not sure how you'd get a text-only remote desktop client.
[12:31] <netdiggerxxx> Iemand die verstand heeft van Ubuntu en Nederlands sreekt aanwezig?
[12:31] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, I assume then that konqueror as it is installed by default wouldn't be available as a cd repository, kind of pointless
[12:31] <ompaul> !nl
[12:31] <ubotu> Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl
[12:31] <netdiggerxxx> Ik ben pas begonnen met Linux
[12:31] <Supaplex> Cosmonaut3030: describe what you do, when this nothing happens.
[12:31] <mzanfardino> ferret: I use krdc, so I'm not familiar with gnome rdesktop.  However, I'm just making sure he can run rdesktop from the cli with X running (it should launch the X interface), yes?
[12:31] <asc> Is there a way to send input to a running text-mode program?  E.g. so that a shell script can run an interactive one with predetermined values that cannot be set as -options.
[12:31] <eXcaliBuR> no one told eXcaliBuR yet how to fix his echo problem
[12:31] <xtknight> asc, by piping it?
[12:32] <awesomess3> Supaplex: Use the spudger to open the lap top if it has something like locking tabs?
[12:32] <bruenig> !patience | eXcaliBuR
[12:32] <ubotu> eXcaliBuR: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[12:32] <mzanfardino> !rdesktop
[12:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rdesktop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:32] <asc> xtknight: I don't know,  but I'll look that up.
[12:32] <xtknight> asc, program1 | program2
[12:32] <xtknight> ?
[12:32] <ferret> mzanfardino: It doesn't required gnome.  You type 'rdesktop server' and it comes up with a window containing the Windows domain login screen.  That's it, really.
[12:32] <Cosmonaut3030> Supaplex: I added the CD as a repository successfully, using apt-cdrom. Then I tried to install packages using apt, after updating it, nothing happens.
[12:32] <mzanfardino> ferret: ok, I'll check it out
[12:32] <welshchris> Any suggestions for a good .nzb app?
[12:33] <Supaplex> awesomess3: yes. are there seams where two sections of platic meet? a spudger is a small platic screwdriver/wedge that's gentle on plastic.
[12:33] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, open up adept
[12:33] <eXcaliBuR> :(
[12:33] <eXcaliBuR> is eXcaliBuR in trouble?
[12:33] <nice> Can someone help me with my wireless connection?? please
[12:33] <dinsley> Hm.. is there a reason piping all data to '&> /dev/null' doesn't work on ubuntu but it does on other boxes running different distros around the office? ('2> /dev/null' seems to work fine locally though.. but it won't work for the application we're using it for)
[12:33] <Supaplex> Cosmonaut3030: so, when you apt-get update, it just returns to the command line w/o printing a single thing?
[12:33] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: I don't have it. However, I apparaently have synaptic. will this do/
[12:33] <Cosmonaut3030> Supaplex: Yes.
[12:33] <asc> xtknight: Maybe if there's things to be done with | that I haven't heard of before.
[12:33] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, yes, it should. How do you not have adept or konqueror and you are saying that this is kubuntu
[12:34] <man_id_unknown> I have tried to run (sudo apt-get update) multiple times, and Ubuntu keeps returning the following error:
[12:34] <xtknight> asc, i didnt understand your question, obviously
[12:34] <man_id_unknown> Couldn't stat source package list http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[12:34] <Supaplex> Cosmonaut3030: that's odd. nopaste the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:34] <xtknight> asc, as far as i know you always have access to the stdin of a program, though im not sure how.
[12:34] <ferret> asc: You can do stuff like echo -e 'Yes\nYes\nNo' | someprogram
[12:34] <r00tintheb0x> Supaplex, just do

[12:35] <eegore> I will be blowing out the windows partition for a fresh install, can I install grub to teh floppy so I can reinstall grub to the primary when the windows install is finished?
[12:35] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[12:35] <awesomess3> Supaplex: Yes there is a plastic piece!  It's on the part of the laptop that is hard to open, so I bet that's it!  I tried using my mechanical pencil to open it up...I'll try something else lol
[12:35] <asc> xtknight: There's a text-mode program that, when run, prompts for some input; I want the input to be entered by the script.
[12:35] <xtknight> asc, oooh
[12:35] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, ok, well look in synaptic for the package, iirc build-essential is on there
[12:35] <xtknight> asc, "type", perhaps
[12:35] <Supaplex> nice: wireless? like the wireless ubotu answered you 5 min ago?
[12:35] <ferronica> hi room
[12:35] <xtknight> asc, hmm or "echo".  i dont know
[12:35] <nice> Supaplex,  i wanna know the path where is the configuration
[12:36] <ferret> asc: you mean read I think
[12:36] <asc> ferret: will play with that a little, see if I can get it to work.
[12:36] <Supaplex> asc: sounds like a job for expect ( look for autoexepct to )
[12:36] <ferret> asc: Oh, i see what you were asking.  Yeah.
[12:36] <Supaplex> !wireless | nice

[12:36] <green> hi
[12:37] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: Yeah, I just installed it... somehow, it downloaded them, even though my wireless card is not working?
[12:37] <nice> because that doesn't work
[12:37] <Supaplex> nice: does iwconfig show the adapter?
[12:37] <man_id_unknown> Can someone help me with 'apt-get update' ?
[12:37] <nice> yeah

[12:37] <ferret> asc: $ (echo 'no'; cat) | adventure
[12:37] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: Maybe they were on the cd?
[12:37] <jimmygoon> How does one go about seeing that a package is updated. For example... libpcap is at version .7 in ubuntu and its already up to .9 ....
[12:37] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, it didn't download it, it took it from the cd
[12:37] <Pici> man_id_unknown: What seems to be the issue?
[12:37] <awesomess3> Supaplex: Ok I got a sharp compass and it's pulling a little out, so this is good!  I tried it from the side...or should I try to pull it out from the top?...I'll keep experimenting :)
[12:37] <corevette> how do you mount an iso image?
[12:37] <man_id_unknown> Pici: I have run 'sudo apt-get update' multiple times, and it keeps returning: Couldn't stat source package list http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[12:37] <bruenig> jimmygoon, become a packager
[12:37] <ferret> asc: That works.  It echos the value and then allow you to continue typing input once you 'auto' input is finished (that's what the '; cat' is for)
[12:37] <bruenig> !mountiso | corevette
[12:37] <ubotu> corevette: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.

[12:38] <samman> I am dual booting XP Pro and Ubuntu. When I try to get my Linksys WPC54G v.6 network card to work, I'm not having any luck. I have tried to use ndiswrapper  to install the driver and i get "couldn't copy lsbcmds.inf at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper-1.8 line 144...  anyone have any ideas how i can make this work?
[12:38] <Supaplex> awesomess3: no idea. :)  My ibook is all good, thanks to some online breakdown guide I found for it.  I even managed to replace the screen frame hinge. (Quite the feat, and PITA)
[12:38] <jimmygoon> bruenig, is it something I can do, without being a packager - like I can update this package and "submit it" persay
[12:38] <asc> ferret: Okay, interesting.  I'll have to play with it a bit.
[12:38] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: So it's on the CD... however the KDE stuff isnt? Even though it's a Kubuntu CD? Are not all the KDE packages stored locally?
[12:38] <Supaplex> nice: where does the guide loose you, or where does it stop being helpful?
[12:39] <bruenig> jimmygoon, you have to go through the process. First you go and create packages for "REVU" and then if you do that well, they will let you package for the universe repository
[12:39] <nice> Supaplex,  i wanna know how to do it in the terminal
[12:39] <awesomess3> Supaplex: I think one of the engineering problems that HP, Apple, etc. face is... "how are we going to make this as difficult as possible for the consumer to take apart?" :)
[12:39] <robert_> I'm upgrading to feisty
[12:39] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, it wouldn't hold the packages in the cd repo because that would be pointless
[12:39] <ompaul> robert_, only if you go to #ubuntu+1 ita ain't supported yet :)
[12:39] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, you are supposed to install the thing first, meaning you already have all of those things
[12:39] <Pici> man_id_unknown: Sounds like its having troulbe connecting to the server, you could try removing the 'us.' from the addresses in /etc/apt/sources.list . Sometimes the ubuntu repos have temporary name resolution failures.
[12:40] <harry_> is there a go game I can get?
[12:40] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: So why does it hold certain packages, like build-essential NOT installed?
[12:40] <man_id_unknown> Pici: how do I do so?
[12:40] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, build-essential is necessary to compile software, so it is a good thing to have
[12:40] <Blar1> Ok... I'm on step five of the install from the live cd. I have my drives partitioned. the title of the current screen is Prepare mount points. I have one set as "/" and one set as "swap". What have I done wrong? I keep getting the error message "No root system".
[12:41] <Supaplex> awesomess3: lol. I think that's pretty much the design goal of anyone.
[12:41] <Pici> man_id_unknown: You could either wait a bit for the problem to resolve itself on Canonical's end, or manually edit your sources.list and change each address line.
[12:41] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: So why isn't installed by default?
[12:41] <man_id_unknown> Yes, let me try to edit the list.
[12:41] <rockzman> Can someone help me with a server installation
[12:41] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, because it isn't essential

[12:42] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: To get the kde package I'm looking for (kwifimanager), would I have to download the deb files and transfer them across some other way? As I cannot get them from the CD?
[12:42] <Blar1> whoops. I meant to say: Ok... I'm on step five of the install from the live cd. I have my drives partitioned. the title of the current screen is Prepare mount points. I have one set as "/" and one set as "swap". What have I done wrong? I keep getting the error message "No root system".
[12:42] <Supaplex> nice: I think there are extensions to /etc/network/interfaces for it.  I don't have wireless nearby, so I'm kinda stabbing in the dark to recall anything.
[12:43] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, yeah
[12:43] <awesomess3> Blar1: you have just distracted me from taking apart the laptop, you're horrible L(
[12:43] <awesomess3> :(
[12:43] <bruenig> !info kwifimanager
[12:43] <ubotu> kwifimanager: wireless lan manager for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu1.1 (edgy), package size 224 kB, installed size 780 kB
[12:43] <ferronica> from where to download ubuntu 6.10?
[12:43] <r00tintheb0x> yeah hateyla whats up
[12:43] <FlipCoder> how do i add more possible resolutions to my ATI videocard.  I'm looking in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:43] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, kwifimanager is in universe anyways, there is no way it would be on the cd
[12:43] <Blar1> awesomeness3: ha.
[12:43] <nice> Supaplex,  thanks
[12:43] <[Ex0r] > hmm, does ubuntu server still give you the option of installing a lamp server ?
[12:43] <bruenig> [Ex0r] , yeah
[12:43] <ferronica> from where to download ubuntu 6.10?
[12:44] <bruenig> ferronica, ubuntu.com
[12:44] <[Ex0r] > does it do it AFTER installing other stuff? I have ubuntu server installing and it never asked, it went straight to starting to install
[12:44] <bbm4n> does beryl works on kubuntu?
[12:44] <ferronica> bruenig: Live CD?
[12:44] <JensenDied> bbm4n: yes
[12:44] <bruenig> [Ex0r] , when the thing boots up, there is a choice that says Install LAMP or something like that
[12:44] <ferronica> bruenig: Or ISO ?
[12:44] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: Ahhh. I'm understanding now. But I'm sure it comes default in Kubuntu, hence why I burnt a Kubuntu cd, thinking I'd be able to get it from there. Haha. I think I'll have to download these packages from packages.ubuntu.com, and transfer them by USB stick, won't I?
[12:44] <bruenig> ferronica, the live cd is an iso
[12:44] <bbm4n> thanks
[12:44] <[Ex0r] > bruenig- first thing that came up was a screen that said press enter to boot
[12:44] <bruenig> Cosmonaut3030, it does not come default in kubuntu
[12:45] <ferronica> bruenig: Can you please give me the link???
[12:45] <bruenig> ferronica, ubuntu.com

[12:45] <samman> I'm having a problem getting Ubuntu to recognize my Linksys WPC54G ver.6 card. Can anyone help me through this?
[12:45] <Cosmonaut3030> bruenig: Ok then. Thanks a lot, you've been a great help to me tonight, now I know what I'm doing :)

[12:45] <yhan> hi is that a way to use an oss module with alsa ?
[12:46] <awesomess3> Supaplex: I have done the impossible!!
[12:46] <bruenig> ferronica, it should be very obvious, the link looks right
[12:46] <aricz> Hola, I added vga=ask in grub/menu.lst .. however, when I choose a graphics-mode it goes in to that mode for a few secs until Ubuntu (startx?) takes over.. when I ctrl+alt+f1 it's still the same old mode.. anyone know what's going on here?
[12:46] <awesomess3> Supaplex: time to get some coffee :)
[12:46] <aricz> I picked 80x50 .. but it's still 80x24.
[12:47] <[Ex0r] > heh yeah, I downloaded ubuntu server 6.10, and it doesn't ask about a lamp server anymore, it goes straight to the press enter to install menu
[12:47] <ferronica> bruenig: Is it okay to use ubuntu 6.10?
[12:47] <bruenig> ferronica, yes
[12:47] <ferronica> bruenig: okay thanx.
[12:48] <yhan> who has experience with ltsp and terminals ?
[12:48] <[Ex0r] > anyone know why that is ?
[12:48] <samman> bruenig: might you have a chance to help me get my wireless working?
[12:49] <yhan> Ex0r : apt-get install php apache mysql :)
[12:49] <awesomess3> Supaplex: Now I'm onto another problem on the opposite side of the laptop, it seems to not want to budge, this is interesting!
[12:49] <JensenDied> [Ex0r] : maybe they decided its easy enough to install from the command line install. and some people might want different versions of parts of lamp
[12:49] <bruenig> samman, don't know wireless
[12:49] <samman> bruenig: ok, danke
[12:49] <[Ex0r] > JensenDied- What's weird is documentation for server still says you can do it
[12:49] <Supaplex> awesomess3: double check for screws. even if they hide under a label.
[12:50] <samman> does anyone know wireless setup for a non-native compatible card?
[12:50] <JensenDied> [Ex0r] : the doc is probably for the 6.06 lts which is where i first/last saw the lamp install option
[12:50] <[Ex0r] > i see
[12:50] <brad_> Can anyone help me understand how to load an application xterm in X from the command line...
[12:50] <JensenDied> thats my guess at least
[12:50] <[Ex0r] > let me finish the install and see if it is in fact ubuntu server
[12:51] <chili555> samman: what kinda card is it?
[12:51] <brad_> *like xterm
[12:51] <[Ex0r] > it doesnt load up ubuntu to memory like the official cd I have does
[12:51] <vnchelper> Is there a way I can set up a Remote Desktop to my Ubuntu machine (in another location) through SSH access?
[12:51] <samman> chili555: it's a linksys wpc54g v.6
[12:51] <yhan> vnchelper, ssh -L 3389:somemachine:3389
[12:51] <NotKevinBacon> Hi all, does anyone know a nice GUI VPN client for Ubuntu?
[12:51] <[Ex0r] > will be back if it doesn't work!
[12:51] <vnchelper> buth will that let me see the GUI yhan
[12:52] <yhan> vnchelper, ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900
[12:52] <FlipCoder> you can see the gui if you use "connect to server" in the ubuntu places menu
[12:52] <yhan> NotKevinBacon, openvpn has a gui
[12:52] <NotKevinBacon> ok thanks yhan, is that in Synaptic?
[12:52] <vnchelper> But I don't have access to my GUI on my linux machine.
[12:52] <theacolyte> NotKevinBacon: openvpn has one, but it's not that great, and it doesn't work at all for me with my Cisco VPN concentrator
[12:52] <vnchelper> That's what I'm trying to get
[12:52] <yhan> NotKevinBacon, sure
[12:52] <FlipCoder> ah, nvm
[12:52] <brad_> I am trying to understand the X server better... and just wanna load an app in X like xterm
[12:52] <tung> Anyone has macromedia flash working on linux?
[12:53] <chili555> samman: what does lspci say chipset is?
[12:53] <yhan> tung, within ff ?
[12:53] <NotKevinBacon> ok thank yhan, and theacolyte, i will monitor this and see if it affects me
[12:53] <tung> yhan: whats ff?
[12:54] <DjViper> firefox
[12:54] <zaipai> Yea Flash is working well in Ubuntu and other distro's Flash 9 seems to be very well done.
[12:54] <tung> no
[12:54] <vnchelper> I'm trying to get GUI access.. but my VNCserver isn't accepting me.. is there another application?
[12:54] <ssaa> hello . i have a question please. I want to install beryl on my laptop, should i install xgl as well?
[12:54] <tung> i am talking about Macromedia Flash MX
[12:54] <vnchelper> Tung, get Crossover office.
[12:54] <samman> chili555: let me see, i'll return in a flash
[12:54] <tung> vnchelper: is it free?
[12:54] <Pici> ssaa: What kind of video card do you have?
[12:54] <chili555> ok
[12:55] <vnchelper> No.. but it does work
[12:55] <zulfajuniadi> vnchelper: i installed flash mx off standard wine, it works great
[12:55] <Kooka> cya all and good night
[12:55] <JensenDied> tung: you might like to check and see if wine works
[12:55] <ssaa> please anyone?
[12:55] <awesomess3> Supaplex: well the edge is right next to the DVD player, so I'd guess I might have to take the DVD player out first.
[12:55] <Pici> ssaa: What kind of video card do you have?
[12:55] <tung> JensenDied: Flash 8 is not listed in appDB
[12:55] <zaipai> Goto the Beryl website and follow the instructions. I believe that XGL is ATI cards but don't quote me on that
[12:56] <JensenDied> flash 8 is unsupported on linux completely (we are using 9 now right)
[12:56] <zaipai> Flash MX works well for me under Wine (the newest version)
[12:56] <brad_> does anyone in here have a firm grasp of how the X server works??
[12:56] <Supaplex> awesomess3: ahhh. the ibook has three, yea THREE obnoxious plastic tab interlocks above the dvd drive. maybe hp stole that idea to.
[12:56] <tung> zaipai: i am trying to install it, but the bar isnt moving at all
[12:56] <tung> JensenDied: i am talking about the program, not flash player
[12:56] <ssaa> zaipai: what do u mean with xgl is ati cards?
[12:56] <Supaplex> brad_: what's the question?
[12:57] <Kaneda> hello, I'm very new here >>
[12:57] <Kaneda> this linux thing is rather scary.
[12:57] <Kaneda> can anyone help me with some noobish questions?
[12:57] <brad_> I wanna load just a simple app without loading gdm or gnome
[12:57] <Flannel> !ask | Kaneda
[12:57] <ubotu> Kaneda: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:57] <brad_> like Xterm
[12:57] <Kaneda> oops ^^
[12:57] <Kaneda> I cant seem to find my windows partition on linux
[12:57] <NotKevinBacon> is openVPN a client or server side appliacation?
[12:58] <rockzman> can someone help me i need to boot sata.i kernel instead of ubuntu usual one can someone help
[12:58] <Kaneda> on "file system" theres just the ubuntu stuff
[12:58] <man_id_unknown> How do I update the GTK runtime files? I currently have a pre-2.0 version.
[12:58] <JensenDied> NotKevinBacon: it could be either depending on how its set up
[12:58] <yhan> tung, ff stands for firefox
[12:58] <Kaneda> and I really need some files from that partition
[12:58] <Staindit> hi to all
[12:58] <NotKevinBacon> oh ok, i guess ill have to read the documentation, im a client tring to connect to work
[12:58] <Kaneda> but ubuntu doesnt seem to see it
[12:58] <man_id_unknown> How do I update the GTK runtime files? I currently have a pre-2.0 version.
[12:59] <jamesjs> ode.net
[12:59] <brad_> Supaplex: Is there a command that would allow me to load an app when I start X?? cause if I type xterm from the command line it tells me It cant find the display...
[12:59] <detectiveinspekt> I am installing gallery2 through firefox, usually I put things in /var/www but it doesn't have the right permissions
[12:59] <Supaplex> brad_: .xinitrc iirc.
[12:59] <detectiveinspekt> should i put in home?
[12:59] <Flannel> man_id_unknown: What version of ubuntu are you using?
[12:59] <samman3> chili555: I don't believe that it is recognizing the card at the moment
[12:59] <Flannel> detectiveinspekt: You put them in /var/www, you'll need to, by default, use sudo to copy them.
[01:00] <man_id_unknown> Flannel: how do I tell? It is over 1 year old, though.
[01:00] <Flannel> man_id_unknown: lsb_release -a
[01:00] <Flannel> detectiveinspekt: you can also put them in your homedir (~/public_html) if you want to do that (that's url/~username)
[01:00] <chili555> samman: thats not good. is it a pci or pcmcia card. i am not familiar with every card..

[01:02] <Flannel> man_id_unknown: You ought to upgrade.  5.10 is only supported for ... what, 10 more days?
[01:02] <man_id_unknown> Ha! I see.
[01:02] <Flannel> man_id_unknown: And with that upgrade, you'll get newer versions of all your software
[01:02] <man_id_unknown> How do I do so?

[01:03] <sotec> google it
[01:04] <JensenDied> crossover office?
[01:04] <sotec> tunganet, it's pretty cool
[01:04] <Flannel> tunganet: #crossover might be active.  google to get their website.
[01:04] <sotec> but
[01:04] <tunganet> sotec: but..
[01:04] <tunganet> Flannel: thank you
[01:04] <man_id_unknown> Flannel: Thank you. However, before I read any further, is the update downloadable, or mailed?
[01:04] <sotec> i haven't figured out how to install a program that's more than one disk
[01:04] <andresmujica> hi i've just upgraded from dapper to edgy, and i'm having trouble with the kernel. it is still the same from dapper.. it diidn't upgrade the kernel what could be wrong?? any pointers or any package i must install again??? Thanks
[01:04] <Flannel> man_id_unknown: downloadable.  You'll upgrade in place.  Sort of like normal updates
[01:04] <tunganet> sotec: did you buy crossover office?
[01:04] <sotec> but i haven't tried the irc channel either
[01:04] <sotec> not yet
[01:05] <Flannel> andresmujica: how didyou upgrade?
[01:05] <tunganet> sotec: trial?
[01:05] <sotec> but if i can get a couple programs installed successfully, i will
[01:05] <man_id_unknown> Flannel: Great. Again, thank you, Sir. ;)
[01:05] <tunganet> sotec: where did you get it?
[01:05] <sotec> online tunganet. they have an official site, just google it
[01:05] <andresmujica> i've followed the "officila" guide, something like gksu update-manager -c"
[01:05] <tunganet> sotec: so you are using trial?
[01:05] <sotec> official*
[01:05] <sotec> yes
[01:06] <Flannel> andresmujica: what does 'uname -a' return?
[01:06] <andresmujica> Linux dieguito 2.6.15-27-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Dec 8 18:00:07 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:06] <sotec> i'm using the trial
[01:06] <andresmujica> dapper kernel
[01:06] <sotec> also....
[01:06] <sotec> if you're into graphics
[01:06] <Flannel> andresmujica: and you've restarted?
[01:06] <sotec> Pixel 1.0 is FANTASTIC
[01:06] <samman3> chili555: correction, it's wpc54g ver.4 and it's a pcmcia card i suppose because it's for my laptop
[01:06] <sotec> it might as well be Photoshop

[01:06] <sotec> and
[01:06] <Flannel> !enter | sotec
[01:06] <ubotu> sotec: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:06] <sotec> it's only $32
[01:06] <jhasse> Does someone know where i can find these example files? http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-python/doc/tutorial.html#see-also
[01:06] <sotec> sorry Flannel
[01:07] <andresmujica> yeap, i've restarted and also there's no 2.6.17 at /boot nor menu.lst or grub.conf....
[01:07] <Flannel> andresmujica: very odd.  You didn't have any issues with update-manager?
[01:07] <sotec> andresmujica, i don't get a grub menu either, it just boots into 2.6.20.13 kernel
[01:07] <chili555> samman3: according to the Ubuntu wiki, u need ndiswrapper.
[01:07] <sotec> :)
[01:08] <areez> hey

[01:08] <areez> can somone plz help me
[01:08] <andresmujica> Flannel: humm it ask 2 or 3 times if i wanted to overwrite some files, but nothing related to kernel, only bluetooth and things like that... i've choosen to rewrite everything.
[01:08] <Flannel> sotec: that's just because your grub menu is hidden
[01:08] <sotec> tunganet, Crossover OFfice is like Wine(because it uses some wine libraries) but a lot easier I think
[01:08] <andresmujica> maybe if i manually try to install the new kernel???
[01:09] <Flannel> andresmujica: odd.  Well, hmm.  pastebin your sources.list, just to make sure.
[01:09] <andresmujica> do you know tha package name??
[01:09] <_Titatovenaar_> what command shows the current kernel, and what is the latest kernel available atm?
[01:09] <sotec> Flannel, how do you show it?
[01:09] <tunganet> sotec: would it be nicer to run games from crossover office?
[01:09] <Flannel> andresmujica: to make sure nothing is abnormal, then yeah, we'll do some manual upgrades/installations
[01:09] <Flannel> sotec: comment out the hiddenmenu line in your menu.lst
[01:09] <chili555> areez: tell us what we can do
[01:10] <zaipai> Any one get Democracy (Version: 0.9.5.3) working in Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn? If so please let me know , so far it just crashes when I launch it.
[01:10] <awesomess3> Supaplex: What if you're trying to open up the laptop with the spudger..and you think there is tab there..and you feel that you're pulling so hard that plastic might break...what do you do? lol
[01:10] <samman3> chili555: that's what i've been trying to use. I'm a super n00b. when i try to install the driver, it gave me the error that it couldn't copy the file to line 44
[01:10] <mjr> Crossover Office is basically Wine plus some setup tools (and a few patches not yet in Wine proper perhaps, but Codeweavers is good about contributing back, unlike a certain Transgaming company)
[01:10] <Unarme1> question- I need the dev/ directory for the USB devices on an iBook. if this is machine specific, can you tell me where it is?
[01:10] <sotec> tunganet, like i said, i tried installing SWAT3, and the first disk installed, but I couldn't figure out how to install the second disk's missionpacks or tactics info. And when I tried to run the program from both within CXO, and just as the desktop shortcut, neither worked, even though on the their website it says that game is supported, so I don[t know man....i'm thinking of trying Wine again
[01:10] <Zues_62> hohow do i mount a volume?
[01:11] <tunganet> sotec: oh.. wine is good
[01:11] <tunganet> sotec: i am trying cxo now
[01:11] <sotec> Wine confused me
[01:11] <tunganet> sotec: it is simple :D
[01:11] <Zues_62> um how do i mount a volume?????????????????????????
[01:11] <sotec> so I ditched it....but i'm thinking a second go at it would be only right

[01:12] <tunganet> sotec: hehe, i am talking about warcraft III
[01:12] <samman3> chili: yes. i downloaded the drivers from linksys, and from what i understand, i needed the lsbcmds.inf file

[01:13] <Zues_62> i hav it says only rute can do it
[01:13] <bbm4n> aero is a piece of crap comparing to it
[01:13] <tunganet> sotec: i hope it will be easy (CXO)
[01:13] <Flannel> !sudo | Zues_62
[01:13] <ubotu> Zues_62: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:14] <awesomess3> theacolyte: I almost did but decided to use `gmail-notify` instead, I edited it just to give me how many messages is in the inbox as a return number.  It's in python.  I can give you the edited scripts if you want.  You can use a bash script, every 1 minute you can call the application, see if the number > 0, and if it is, call any command you want.
[01:14] <chili555> domo obrigado, mr ubotu
[01:14] <sotec> tunganet, it seems pretty simple compare to Wine, more GUI-based and user friendly, but with a little research, i think it can be awesome
[01:14] <Unarme1> asking for the third time. I would like to know how i can go about finding the /dev/ directory corresponding to the USB port on the left side of my iBook, so that i can finally and at long last install familiar on my iPaq
[01:14] <Flannel> Unarme1: what do you need to know about USB stuff?
[01:14] <andresmujica> Flannel: this is what it wants to upgrade http://pastebin.ca/423175 .. no kernel
[01:15] <tunganet> sotec: oh, alright.  Because i think wine is really simple :D
[01:15] <awesomess3> tunganet: Do the WCIII ever run slow on wine?
[01:15] <Balzac> hello
[01:15] <asc> How might I send a newline character to bash?  I doesn't seem to like '\n'
[01:15] <asc> *it
[01:15] <Flannel> andresmujica: do you have linux-image-686 installed?
[01:15] <tunganet> awesomess3: no, never.
[01:15] <cafuego_> asc: But it does
[01:15] <awesomess3> tunganet: and are you running the latest wine?
[01:15] <sotec> oh, also tunganet, i'm pretty sure that you can't patch pirated programs either. i tried it on PaintShop Pro and it didnt' work, even when the patcher was in the same folder as psp.exe
[01:15] <cafuego_> asc: In echo, you mean?
[01:15] <tunganet> awesomess3: yes latest
[01:16] <Kevlar_Soul> WHICH program makes your desktop into a 3-D square??///
[01:16] <cafuego_> asc: echo -e "\n"
[01:16] <tunganet> sotec: oh..
[01:16] <sotec> I'm just retarded to Wine
[01:16] <asc> cafuego_: Hm, yeah, probably.
[01:16] <awesomess3> tunganet: that is awesome :).  Have you ever had any issues?
[01:16] <Flannel> Kevlar_Soul: #ubuntu-effects, beryl or compiz
[01:16] <sotec> i'll try it again
[01:16] <Kevlar_Soul> Flannel:  both?
[01:16] <Unarme1> Flannel I need the /dev/ directory corresponding to it. Im using minicom to get to my ipaq so that i can install familiar on it. I need to connect through USB, so, it looks like its going to have to figure it out on its own unless i can tell it how, thusly, the /dev/ path corresponding to it
[01:16] <Zues_62> that page has nothing i need
[01:16] <Flannel> Kevlar_Soul: either
[01:16] <Balzac> i want to upgrade my ubuntu 6.10 to 7 beta
[01:16] <tunganet> awesomess3: i couldn't use the numpad more than once before, but it is fixed after a update.
[01:16] <Flannel> !upgrade | Balzac
[01:16] <Chamuco> Hi noob ? I have a mounted drive in media it got full deleted some files but still shows as full I go to thetrash bin to empty but it says there is no files? what am I missing?
[01:16] <ubotu> Balzac: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:16] <Kevlar_Soul> Flannel:  thanks!
[01:16] <asc> Heh, ooh.  Thanks.  *bonk self*
[01:16] <Balzac> thanks
[01:16] <sotec> Balzac, just upgrade to Feisty :D
[01:16] <samman3> chili555: hmmm, seems like i might have downloaded the wrong one. let me double check an dmake sure
[01:17] <Flannel> Unarme1: er, that a usb drive?
[01:17] <andresmujica> Unarme1: try with sudo lsusb, or insert a usbpen and just after that run a sudo dmesg | tail it would show some info, even the usb port used
[01:17] <awesomess3> tunganet: if I may ask, what does `wine --version` say?  Mine is wine-0.9.31
[01:17] <tunganet> awesomess3: give wine a try with warcraft, it was smiple for me
[01:17] <tunganet> awesomess3: 33 i believe

[01:17] <tunganet> awesomess3: my bad . 9.0.34
[01:17] <Flannel> andresmujica: Do you have linux-image-686 installed?
[01:18] <Unarme1> Flannel thanks. any tips on steps following or using minicom?
[01:18] <sotec> chili555, yea, hard to know unless you have the actual disk to the program
[01:18] <Flannel> Unarme1: I have no idea what minicom is.
[01:18] <sotec> which i dont' have many of
[01:18] <sotec> hehehe
[01:18] <awesomess3> tunganet: ty for checking :)
[01:18] <tunganet> awesomess3: i can also run counter strike 1.6 with wine :)
[01:18] <samman3> chili555: ok i'll check that out
[01:18] <Unarme1> Flannel. ha. thanks for your help.
[01:18] <mEck0> is somebody here using mysql? I have a problem
[01:18] <Flannel> !anyone | mEck0
[01:18] <ubotu> mEck0: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:18] <andresmujica> Flannel: hmmm seems that is not there dpkg -l | grep linux-image-686 .. root@dieguito:/etc/apt #
[01:19] <awesomess3> tunganet: I run ut2004 w/o wine, and I don't know if I can stand 2 FPS games :)
[01:19] <Flannel> andresmujica: eh?  Why are you using root?  Anwyay.  That's your issue.  You haven't gotten kernel updates in quite a while actually.  For edgy, install linux-image-generic
[01:19] <Zues_62> so how do i mount it
[01:19] <Zues_62> the website i was given doesnt say
[01:19] <tunganet> awesomess3: you run it w/o (without) wine?
[01:20] <Flannel> andresmujica: you should probably file a bug against update-manager, mentioning that it doesn't automatically check for a kernel metapackage
[01:20] <sotec> so tunganet, if i double click on an .exe, will Wine pick it up and install, or is it an exe-by-exe based process....some will, some wont work that way?
[01:20] <chili555> Unarmel: minicom over USB???
[01:20] <awesomess3> tunganet: yeah it has Linux binaries on the CDs :)))
[01:20] <tunganet> sotec: i usually type .wine [path of file] .exe
[01:20] <Flannel> Zues_62: mount it with System > Administration > Disks
[01:20] <rockzman> flamesrock can you help me i got an sata instalattion and it cannot detect my cdrom
[01:20] <sotec> oh cool
[01:20] <sotec> that works
[01:20] <sotec> i'd rather use the Command Line anyway :)
[01:20] <Zues_62> i have storage devices in system not disks flannel
[01:21] <ildreanciphe1> I am having problems with the partitioning step of my install.
[01:21] <tunganet> sotec: but i dont know why, after a while, i can just double click .exe and it will run through wine.
[01:21] <andresmujica> Flannel: thanks!! it's downloading right now
[01:21] <Flannel> Zues_62: alright.  Try that one then.
[01:21] <sotec> tunganet, Wine must develop a memory for exe's
[01:21] <Zues_62> i did i click on mount and it still doesnt show up on desktop
[01:21] <awesomess3> tunganet: I wish it ran faster though, I have a GeForce 3 Ti200 512MB, but it depends largely on the the maps, some maps are incredibly slow (< 25 FPS)
[01:21] <tunganet> sotec: haha yes.
[01:21] <tunganet> awesomess3: i get 100fps with geforce 5200 128mb on cs1.6
[01:21] <ildreanciphe1> can anyone help me?
[01:21] <sotec> kind of like what CxO does. I can't open anything exe without it opening to try and run it...annoying
[01:22] <Sirius_Black> ??

[01:22] <ubotu> ildreanciphe1: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:22] <Alysum> hi is there a way to chmod -R and do it on directories ONLY ?
[01:22] <awesomess3> tunganet: that is awesome :))

[01:42] <Supaplex> real men use ed to edit files. ;)
[01:42] <fghj> why do I need to compile kernle module?
[01:42] <fghj> why can't I do apt-get insatll openafs?
[01:42] <ildreanciphe1> How do i manually setup a partition in the install?
[01:42] <bruenig> Supaplex, real men use cat, sed, awk, and grep to do it
[01:42] <awesomess3> Supaplex: Well it's a friends, so if I gave it away they might get upset :( lol
[01:42] <rockzman> chili555 can ya look at pm
[01:42] <rockzman> chili555 for 3 mins
[01:43] <stormy|> What is the proper syntax for doing a 'hard link'?
[01:43] <scooper> I'm working with a Generic Nvidia 6800 and the drivers that I downloaded off the Nvidia website yesterday for Amd64. I've got a CRT and a REALSync DFP plugged in and I can't seem to A) make the DFP my primary monitor and B) Change the resolution of the DFP from 640x480 to anything reasonable. I've tried a bit of messing with the xorg.conf file, but I'm stumped so I thought I'd post some info and see if anyone else can help.
[01:43] <scooper> Ideally this is what I will have:
[01:43] <scooper> DFP (primary 1280x1024 higher refresh rate than 50 if at all possible) to the left of my CRT (secondary 1024x768 higher refresh rate than 50 if at all possible)
[01:43] <FlipCoder> anyone want to help me with some problems i ran into while uninstalling my ATI proprietary driver?  I can't even get into GNOME :(
[01:43] <chili555> rockzman: sure u can PM me?
[01:43] <awesomess3> bruenix: and sometimes use `perl -e` to use the non-greedy regular expressions that sed or awk does not possess.
[01:43] <rockzman> chili555 im going to now
[01:43] <rockzman> u wont waste more than 5 mins
[01:43] <Supaplex> awesomess3: but TNT is ok hum?
[01:43] <chili555> rockzman: no prob
[01:44] <ildreanciphe1> any advice for partitioning manually?
[01:44] <fbnts> does anyone know how to reinstall the glib6 package from the ubuntu CD?
[01:44] <bruenig> ildreanciphe1, I say do it
[01:44] <rockzman> chili555 i just did msged u
[01:44] <awesomess3> Supaplex: At least I have something to give back
[01:44] <Supaplex> fbnts: dpkg -i ?
[01:44] <Supaplex> awesomess3: a heap of parts ;)
[01:44] <Supaplex> yay!
[01:44] <stormy|> ildreanciphe1:  are you installing from scratch?
[01:44] <bruenig> stormy|, just ln
[01:44] <psycho78> can anyone recommend an easy to use image editor for simple tasks such as resize and crop?
[01:45] <ildreanciphe1> no ive already got windows.
[01:45] <stormy|> thanks bruenig
[01:45] <stormy|> Okay....
[01:45] <bruenig> stormy|, as in ln /whatever /new/thing/you/are/linking
[01:45] <rockzman> chili555 can you tell me if there is how to install ubuntu from another device not the cd
[01:45] <fbnts> is libc6 package in /pool/main/g/glibc/libc6-dev_2.4-1ubuntu12_i386.deb ?
[01:45] <scooper> anyone have any experience with dual monitors?  I ran into a snag following a guide
[01:46] <Supaplex> fbnts: dpkg --info file.deb (I think)
[01:46] <rogue780|laptop> i just installed vmware player, and I'm trying to boot from either the physical cd rom drive or an iso...can someone help me please?
[01:46] <awesomess3> psycho78: console app: `apt-cache search imagemagick`.   GUI app: `apt-cache search gimp`
[01:46] <JensenDied> scooper: slightly
[01:46] <stormy|> ildreanciphe1: : Dual booting.... I did it .... I only had to resize the partitions first.... once you resize them, you make sure that the one you have made for linux is empty... and then you install linux on there.... GRUB will most likely find windows and boot it... however, you may need to use these commands to get into it for the time being
[01:46] <bruenig> fbnts, are you asking where the deb file is on your drive?
[01:46] <z3b> rogue780|laptop: what's the problem?
[01:46] <doseryder> please guys, I'm feeling knocked out about my slow netsurfing(download is okay tho) behind router.  (In windows Xp the speeds is normal all around)
[01:46] <psycho78> awesomess3: yes, i like gimp but my wife is wanting something very simple.
[01:47] <stormy|> ildreanciphe1: :  rootnoverify (hd0,0)  <enter> chainloader +1 <enter>  boot <enter>
[01:47] <ildreanciphe1> i resized the windows partion to 48 gb  and ive got an 80 gig drive, how do i make a new partion?
[01:47] <doseryder> I need more help with correcting my netsurfing speeds behind my ZIO router.  I did not feel much improvement after comleting https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[01:47] <chili555> rockzman: where did you go?
[01:47] <z3b> rogue780|laptop: should be a matter of selecting drive/iso in vm-settings.
[01:47] <fbnts> kind of, I have screwed up apt-get and i keep getting: E: The package libc6 needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[01:47] <Comrade-Sergei> Im sorry how do i do "X Server"
[01:47] <bruenig> ildreanciphe1, right click on the unpartitioned space and click create or new or whatever it is
[01:47] <bruenig> fbnts, you need to go get a deb of it
[01:47] <Zues_62> hey guys im honestly so confused how do i check  a disk with the termal
[01:47] <ildreanciphe1> ok
[01:47] <Zues_62> im not sure of the comand to use
[01:47] <stormy|> ildreanciphe1: , you do it when you install ubuntu... or you could use Norton PartitionMagic
[01:47] <rogue780|laptop> z3b, are you using vmware workstation or player?
[01:47] <bruenig> Zues_62, define check
[01:47] <z3b> ildreanciphe1: try gparted (apt-get install gparted) it is a nice partition editor for gnome
[01:47] <stormy|> thing is ildreanciphe1, make sure you backup your windows!
[01:48] <z3b> rogue780|laptop: both
[01:48] <stormy|> you don't want to risk losing anything
[01:48] <Zues_62> ok well it shows the disk is there in the my computer but not on the desktop
[01:48] <Zues_62> its an external
[01:48] <BSG75> Zues_62: what do you mean by "check a disk"? do you want to know how much being used? do you want to know if there are any defects?
[01:48] <hossasaur> hi, i need help.  i copied my sda1 partition which had linux on it, changed the size of my ntfs partition (sda0) partition, now grub gives me an error 22
[01:48] <bruenig> Zues_62, so you want to do what, mount it or what?
[01:48] <rogue780|laptop> I only have player. I can't find vm-settings. where is it?
[01:48] <ildreanciphe1> what filesystem should i use for the new partition
[01:48] <hossasaur> my ubuntu partition is still there, it's just changed paths
[01:48] <bruenig> ildreanciphe1, ext3
[01:48] <hossasaur> as well as my ntfs partition
[01:48] <Zues_62> ya check defects and mount
[01:48] <Alan> is there a way to get ubuntu to redetect the hardware and set up the kernel modules accordingly ?
[01:48] <z3b> rogue780|laptop: i see vmplayer does not let you change vm options. you might have luck editing the vmx file directly.
[01:48] <fbnts> would that be on the CD?  I'm not familiar with Ubuntu with slackware i just grep'ed the file list
[01:48] <hossasaur> how do i fix grub?
[01:48] <Zues_62> i tryed mounting it
[01:48] <ildreanciphe1> thank you
[01:48] <bruenig> Zues_62, what happens when you try to mount?
[01:49] <scooper> I have a DFP and a CRT, but I can't seem to get my DFP to be primary or change its resolution, the CRT is workign great
[01:49] <fbnts> would that be on the CD?  I'm not familiar with Ubuntu with slackware i just grep'ed the file list
[01:49] <Comrade-Sergei> My linux isnt booting and it says its X Server isnt configured right and it wont boot how so i repair it from a live cd?
[01:49] <stormy|> ildreanciphe1: : actually,  you will need to make several partitions, one for your root partition, and another for swap... I dont remember how big to make the swap.... twice the size of your RAM will prolly be okay
[01:49] <Zues_62> it still wont show up
[01:49] <fbnts> sorry for the double post!
[01:49] <Zues_62> it comes up wif an error
[01:49] <awesomess3> psycho78: Well...when she gets to larger pictures she's going to need zoom pictures, and one of these days she might want to add text to the image after resizing or cropping.  My suggestion would tell her to learn how to crop with theGimp so that when she needs additional features, like borders/text, it'll be with the same tool she uses for cropping and resizing.
[01:49] <stormy|> ildreanciphe1:  make the big one as 'ext3' , and the one for 'swap' as 'swap'
[01:49] <bruenig> swap is the biggest waste, I have never had that thing over 150 MB
[01:49] <Zues_62> this filesystem can not be mounted it may be an incorect file system
[01:49] <Zues_62> and i know it works it was last nite
[01:49] <bruenig> Zues_62, well what is the filesystem, ntfs?
[01:49] <ponch666> who speack italian?
[01:50] <Zues_62> ext3
[01:50] <tunganet> sotec: hey
[01:50] <tunganet> sotec: are yout here
[01:50] <stormy|> lol... bruenig: I have a 2.9GB swap :x.... only using 21.4 mb of it
[01:50] <tunganet> How do i delete folders that appear to have a LOCK on the icon?
[01:50] <JensenDied> does anyone know of a util like xmodmap that works w/o X running?
[01:50] <ildreanciphe1> i dont know about 'swap'
[01:50] <awesomess3> stormy|: ouch lol
[01:50] <nekomancer> ildreanciphe1, swap should be about 1.5 times the ram you have.  or so i understand
[01:50] <tunganet> nevermind
[01:50] <nekomancer> ildreanciphe1, it is called linux-swap or something like that
[01:50] <masternave> Hello. I'm having extreme trouble with fglrx. Can anyone direct me to a good guide for installing it on edgy?
[01:50] <ponch666> please!!!!noboby italian????
[01:50] <sotec> yep, here
[01:50] <sotec> sort of
[01:50] <Zues_62> its ext3 so what do i do
[01:51] <nekomancer> ildreanciphe1, you only need about 256 mb of it, but the more you have the faster older computers will be.
[01:51] <[WaZ] > masternave: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide
[01:51] <stormy|> So, I have a question for you guys.... I am having major problems getting Dapper 6.06LTS AMD64 to upgrade to Edgy... as in... GPG key errors
[01:51] <masternave> Thank you. I don't know why I'm having so much trouble.
[01:51] <stormy|> Actually, I think i fixed that... let me check on this real quick
[01:51] <nekomancer> ildreanciphe1, i have a gig of ram and i don't have to have swap turned on, so you can get away without it.  but it is one of the nice things of linux
[01:51] <masternave> I did it before, then I messed around with beryl.
[01:52] <ponch666> ADMINISTRATOR can you help me?
[01:52] <fghj> how do I setup afs on ubuntu x64 ???
[01:52] <z3b> fghj: afs as in openafs the file system?
[01:52] <ZoDiaC13> hello
[01:52] <JensenDied> does anyone know of a util like xmodmap that works without X running?
[01:52] <Zues_62> bru so what do id o now
[01:53] <Alan> is there a way to get ubuntu to redetect the hardware and set up the kernel modules accordingly ?
[01:53] <ponch666> ufffff
[01:53] <ZoDiaC13> does anyone use NetworkManager in Ubuntu 6.10
[01:53] <nekomancer> ZoDiaC13, sometimes.  what needs done?
[01:53] <fghj> z3b: yes
[01:53] <awesomess3> psycho78: One time I really needed an application that just cropped an image.  I created a Java application that drew the image onto a window, and then I used the mouse to select the part I wanted of the image, and I passed the arguments to ImageMagick to do the actual cropping, it worked well!
[01:54] <fbnts> bruenig, I have just found the libc6 package but when I try to install it i get: /bin/sh: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /bin/sh)
[01:54] <awesomess3> psycho78: at least until the images started getting bigger than my screen :)
[01:54] <z3b> fghj: good luck, i looked into it a while ago. dismissed it and went for nfs instead.
[01:54] <ponch666> www.myspace.com/theearthfall
[01:54] <nekomancer> Alan, not that i know of, i just re-install... it isn't too hard.  esp if you can write up a little script to aptitude install alll the files you like
[01:54] <ZoDiaC13> i cant seem to see my windows shares over the network when im connected to my wireless network, i can see them fine when im wired
[01:54] <Zues_62> ok guys who knows how to check an ext3 for errors
[01:54] <fbnts> isnt this a circle cos thats what I am trying to install?
[01:54] <nekomancer> Zues_62, fsck or something like that should do it.
[01:54] <ponch666> www.myspace.com/theearthfall
[01:54] <psycho78> awesomess3: thanks for the info :)
[01:54] <Alan> nekomancer, it took me several attempts to get the install to work.... i think there is a tiny ACPI bug....
[01:54] <Zues_62> tryed it does anyone actualy know
[01:55] <nekomancer> Zues_62, it runs every third boot.
[01:55] <awesomess3> psycho78: if you'd like the code I can give it to you.
[01:55] <Zues_62> its an external drive its not showing up properly
[01:55] <nekomancer> Alan, did you md5sum check the iso image before burning?
[01:55] <ponch666> www.myspace.com/theearthfall
[01:55] <Zues_62> so who actualy knows how to check a disk in a terminal
[01:55] <zulfajuniadi> ponch666: enough with the adverts
[01:55] <Alan> nekomancer, yeah, and i ran the verifier too
[01:56] <Alan> nekomancer, i checked all the obvious
[01:56] <z3b> Zues_62: use fsck.
[01:56] <Alan> nekomancer, worked first time in another laptop
[01:56] <doseryder> I need more help with correcting my netsurfing speeds behind my ZIO router.  I did not feel much improvement after completing https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[01:56] <Zues_62> in what
[01:56] <Zues_62> fsk what do i do after
[01:56] <psycho78> awesomess3: I appreciate it but I don't know anything about programming. One day after I finish school and have time I will learn.
[01:56] <ponch666> i need help
[01:56] <Zues_62> will it check all disks z3b
[01:56] <z3b> Zues_62: unmount the partition, run fsck /dev/PARTITION
[01:56] <zulfajuniadi> with what ponch666?
[01:56] <nekomancer> Alan, i think it is beyond me then.  sorry
[01:57] <tunganet> sotec: hey are you theere
[01:57] <nekomancer> ponch666, what do you need help with?

[01:57] <zulfajuniadi> i have no idea ponch666
[01:58] <ildreanciphe1> ok, so i have a 37.25 gb ntfs partition for windows called /dev/sda1 , i have a 35.54 gb ext3 partition for linux called new partition #1, and a 1.91 gb partion for linux-swap called new partition #2 ( i have 1 gig of RAM).  Is this all i need to partition correctly?
[01:58] <ponch666> so i'm hera but i don't know why??? i have lost my server list from europe!!!!
[01:58] <Zues_62> it says the superblock could not be read or describe a correct ext2
[01:58] <nekomancer> ponch666, try reinstalling if it was a default list
[01:58] <stormy|> ildreanciphe1:  you shoul be fine, but you shouldn't have to do anything to the NTFS windows partition, just checking
[01:58] <ponch666> sure??
[01:58] <Zues_62> z3b
[01:59] <ildreanciphe1> i had to resize it
[01:59] <z3b> Zues_62: which partition do you want to check, what command did you use?
[01:59] <stormy|> That should be fine then ildreanciphe1
[01:59] <zulfajuniadi> stormy|: upgrade through alternate cd?
[01:59] <stormy|> what do you guys make of this? I've never done bug reports before...
[01:59] <stormy|> hmmm
[01:59] <ildreanciphe1> ok, thanks
[01:59] <Zues_62> i just used fsk /dev/sda2
[01:59] <stormy|> I suppose I could try that zulfajuniadi.... I've had problems though installing the full edgy from the main CD
[01:59] <Zues_62> ok its sda2 and its ext3
[02:00] <zulfajuniadi> stormy|: not the main cd... use the alternate
[02:00] <Comrade-Sergei> My linux isnt booting and it says its X Server isnt configured right and it wont boot how so i repair it from a live cd?

[02:00] <stormy|> Comrade-Sergei:  you shuld be able to do it from a command line
[02:01] <ildreanciphe1> do i have to rename the new partition to something special or can it remain as new partition #1?
[02:01] <stormy|> Comrade-Sergei:  I am assuming that you have an nVidia graphics card?
[02:01] <awesomess3> psycho78: If you'd like, you can look at the code: http://physics211.no-ip.org/imagecropper.html
[02:01] <z3b> Zues_62: hmmm

[02:02] <stormy|> Comrade-Sergei:  It sounds like a driver issue, but I dont know anything about that... all I can say is take a look at xorg.conf.... if you dont know how from command line... it's "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf"

[02:03] <nekomancer> hossasaur, so what did you shrink to do that?  grub may have been in that partition
[02:03] <zulfajuniadi> hossasaur: check your /boot/grub/device.map
[02:03] <awesomess3> psycho78: if you noticed, it just prints out the size of the crop, and its position.  The output is piped to ImageMagick that uses the output to do the actual cropping of the image.
[02:03] <Alan> any chance i can use hw-detect from the install cd?
[02:03] <Zues_62> do u know z3b

[02:07] <stormy|> zulfajuniadi:  can you help me find the URL for the alternate CD? I can't find anything called 'alternate install' in the download interface....
[02:07] <z3b> fghj: i don't want to discourage you, but if you don't know how to build/use another kernel -- forget afs.
 then ctrl-c and press y
[02:07] <awesomess3> rockzman: Yes :)

[02:07] <doseryder> xamox: I don't use gui in linux but theres always scp
[02:07] <nekomancer> hossasaur, grub should be accessable from the ubuntu partion.  mount that and take a look at menu.lst and device.map
 u dont need to
[02:08] <doseryder> !ipv6
[02:08] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
 just boot up your hd and press "e" when grub is booting

 ok
[02:10] <nekomancer> hossasaur, one moment.
[02:10] <stormy|> thanks zulfajuniadi: I can't find my way around the new interface....  they didn't make the server version the same thing is it?
[02:10] <nekomancer> hossasaur, you *can* try both, but i am unsure.
[02:10] <hossasaur> nekomancer: thanks for the help thus far, i'm going to try it out, i may get booted, my wireless has been acting up today
[02:11] <nekomancer> hossasaur, wait

[02:11] <ildreanciphe1> can anyone help me with auto resizing my windows partition, it keeps saying it couldnt create enough space for installation?
[02:12] <nekomancer> hossasaur, i don't know how to do that when not installing.
[02:12] <zulfajuniadi> ildreanciphe1: boot off livecd and use gparted
[02:12] <stormy|> zulfajuniadi:  Just checking, the install wont alter anything except for the OS itself, as in, my apps and whatnot will remain the same unless theres a wierd case....
[02:13] <ildreanciphe1> where do i find gparted
[02:13] <zulfajuniadi> yes, stormy|
[02:13] <hossasaur> so how do i fix this error 22?
[02:13] <z3b> hossasaur: afaik partition numbering always starts at 1.
[02:13] <stormy|> ildreanciphe1: : have you tried apt-get install gparted?
[02:13] <cables> ildreanciphe1, it's not on the Feisty livecd

[02:13] <cables> NefariousPrior, multiverse i believe
[02:13] <cables> Puppy, no
[02:13] <zulfajuniadi> hossasaur: /boot/grub/menu.lst paste @ paste.ubuntu-nl.org

[02:13] <cables> Puppy, the only reason to get antivirus is to prevent yourself from forwarding Windows viruses to other people

[02:15] <cables> NefariousPrior, I guess it's in Seveas' repos.
[02:15] <ildreanciphe1> ive opened gparted, but it looks the same as the manual partition step in the install which couldnt resize my existing windows partition.

[02:17] <cables> zulfajuniadi, there's always a possibility you'll screw up ntfs by resizing, but it's pretty rare... I don't see how Vista would be different.

[02:27] <zulfajuniadi> Gorilla: yes
[02:27] <CoRnJuLiOx> any ideas?
[02:27] <ponch666> i'm here and i don't know why

[02:28] <Salik> cables: samething downloading are restricted from server. 8kbs.. then how can i download.. fiesty.. i tried to use d/l accelerator for edgy.. but after 4 days.. downloadin.. in last edgy corrupt..
[02:28] <ponch666> i don't have a list room frmo my country

[02:28] <hossasaur> i seriously think this anti-vista stigma is out of hand.  i mean, i triple boot vista, ubuntu, and osx...i love using multiple os's, and still have few complaints about vista
[02:28] <Pelo> ponch666,  you are using emule to chat on this channel ?
[02:28] <cables> Salik, use a different mirror!

[02:28] <ponch666> yes
[02:29] <ponch666> i use emul
[02:29] <Gorilla> that is a good note, I wanted to install it, but its not worth it when you can't
[02:29] <nekomancer> hossasaur, interesting.  i gave up windows a while ago.  all i know of vista is what i have read, and that it takes more hardware specs than it seems worth to run an os which isn't even as flashy as beryl.
[02:29] <Salik> cables: i aint get what u saying... use a different mirror?  :< plz guide if u can.
[02:29] <zulfajuniadi> LeoNz: fchk?

[02:29] <h3x0r> I only use a windows product in this case thier OS just cause i wanna game and wineX doesnt play games 100% the way they are ment
[02:29] <LeoNz> chkdsk /f?
[02:29] <ponch666> ???
[02:29] <cables> Salik, what are you downloading? The Feisty ISO?
[02:29] <hossasaur> nekomancer: it's not as "flashy" as beryl, but it's 100% cleaner. it runs as efficient if not more efficient than ubuntu+beryl.  it runs faster than xp ever did on the same machine
[02:29] <Pelo> roadfish,  it is not something I have had dealings with
[02:29] <Gorilla> this is going fast
[02:30] <Salik> cables yes..
[02:30] <roadfish> roadfish: thanks
[02:30] <zulfajuniadi> chkdsk is fos dos i think LeoNz
[02:30] <LeoNz> oh ok
[02:30] <cables> ponch666, Per unire una scanalatura specifica, dovete scrivere "a macchina/J # channelname" di destra nel vostro cliente del IRC.
[02:30] <Salik> cables i want to download fiesty iso
[02:30] <LeoNz> so i go to run and try fchk?
[02:30] <hossasaur> nekomancer: i think most of it has to do with utilization of dual-core processor and sata
[02:30] <nekomancer> hossasaur, and that video drivres don't always work.  just had a friend lose his vista from trying to install nvidia drivers.
[02:30] <zulfajuniadi> LeoNz: lemme check first
[02:30] <cables> Salik, there should be a list of mirrors (other servers to download from) on the download page
[02:30] <LeoNz> kk, im on windows atm not ubunutu
[02:30] <CoRnJuLiOx> ferret: didn't work
[02:30] <Rkelly> if ubuntu stops when its almost finished its boot and the display turns black with a flasing dash it the top left corner what has happened
[02:30] <dimas> i did installed kdenlive with the terminal...so i dont know how to open it
[02:30] <ponch666> ok can you repeat in english please cables
[02:30] <nekomancer> hossasaur, dual core was weak in xp.  i think you need to configure ubuntu and beryl to take advantage of dualcore-ey ness
[02:31] <Pelo> Rkelly,  try booting the previous kernel
[02:31] <hossasaur> nekomancer: ubuntu 6.10 (i think it's the distro) automatically detects dual-core
[02:31] <zulfajuniadi> LeoNz: read this :D http://linuxgazette.net/issue37/tag/39.html
[02:31] <ferret> CoRnJuLiOx: Can you demonstrate what you are trying?
[02:31] <nekomancer> hossasaur, i use a semi elderly single core laptop... (she can't do vista)
[02:31] <ponch666> the translation is not goog sorry

[02:32] <dimas> pelo how i run kdenlive

[02:32] <dimas> pretty good thanks

[02:32] <hossasaur> nekomancer: i have a year-old dual core that i thought couldn't take the vista jump.  to my surprise, it runs every option of aero glass with no problems on the daily.
[02:32] <Salik> cables:  i dont know the any way to fix that.. coz i m new in linux. so thats why try to ask here.. coz server is on Linux.
[02:32] <ponch666> and i don't understand why i'm only here
[02:32] <|Jason8||> cables, thanks :)
[02:33] <cables> ponch666, what do you want to chat about?
[02:33] <Gorilla> use Xmule jason8
[02:33] <cables> Salik, you can't download faster if the server you're downloading from is slow.
[02:33] <nekomancer> hossasaur, has the recovery option been found?
[02:33] <Pelo> ponch666,   goto synaptic,   completely uninstall  xchat , and xchat-common,  then reinstall xchat
[02:33] <ponch666> after i used a italian chat
[02:33] <hossasaur> nekomancer: yeah.....it can't fix itself
[02:33] <Gorilla> the devil is in ponch666
[02:33] <cables> Salik, you also can't download faster if there are restrictions on your download speed
[02:33] <ponch666> now i'm here why??
[02:33] <Salik> cables:  it is not slow.. server have 2mb download link
[02:33] <hossasaur> i'm pretty sure this is a gparted issue.  it basically can't resize vista ntfs
[02:33] <ponch666> hahaha
[02:33] <cables> ponch666, you want an italian chat channel?

[02:35] <cables> ponch666, write it where you're chatting now.
[02:35] <CoRnJuLiOx> ferret: yeah its a song pack. i dunno how decent it is. the site i'm downloading from has 4 servers up, each w/a 60kbps downstream cap on it, thats why i'm trying to get axel working
[02:35] <CoRnJuLiOx> ferret: the link you gave me didn't work
[02:35] <ponch666> but i have only this chat
[02:35] <ferret> CoRnJuLiOx: That's bizarre, it works perfectly fine here.

[02:36] <dimas> i havent open it yet
[02:36] <CoRnJuLiOx> ferret: i never did figure out how to do that
[02:36] <ferret> CoRnJuLiOx: No... I'm not suggesting you use wget to get the file, just to do the http redirect stuff
[02:37] <MadDog011> --- Should I use envy?
[02:37] <dimas> cork how do i open kdenlive?
[02:37] <spawn311> I am have an issue ipp using cups -- jobs do not purge after printing
[02:37] <Cork> how should i know ^,^
[02:37] <CoRnJuLiOx> ferret: example? i don't know how to do that >.<
[02:37] <Pelo> MadDog011,  envy is a sin, you should strive for the virtue of learning to install by hand
[02:38] <cables> ponch666, you are not in the Italian channel now. Are you still having trouble?
[02:38] <juancgt> how does ubuntu control the packages that it holds back during apt-get update/upgrade ?
[02:38] <MadDog011> Pelo, honestly... im afraid
[02:38] <PriceChild> MadDog011, envy is not supported in this channel. Use it at your own risk :)
[02:38] <spawn311> I am thinking I need to add Listen fireball:631 to the cupsd.conf
[02:38] <PriceChild> juancgt, I don't quite understand the question, could you expand?
[02:38] <ubuntu> .ar
[02:38] <MadDog011> PriceChild, im afraid man im afraid of screwing my drivers up... Ijust want it to work :)
[02:38] <cables> juancgt, it says things are "held back" if you install stuff while there are new versions of anything available.
[02:38] <z3b> juancgt: use apt-get dist-upgrade or update-manager
[02:38] <Pelo> MadDog011, ppl are only affraid of things they don' t understand,   the only way to beat that is learning
[02:38] <ponch666> yes
[02:39] <spawn311> right now it just has Listen localhost:631 -- does anyone think this is the issue
[02:39] <MadDog011> pelo, :(
[02:39] <bimberi> juancgt: 'upgrade' won't install new dependencies or remove obsoleted ones.  'dist-upgrade' will
[02:39] <MadDog011> pelo, Can't argue
[02:39] <Pelo> MadDog011,  you'll thank me , eventualy

[02:44] <rockzman> How do I install UBUNTU using an IDE HD ?
[02:44] <jvai> !autoscan
[02:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about autoscan - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:44] <cafuego_> rockzman: boot from the cdrom, follow the steps.
[02:44] <cables> Hypnotic, did they put it in the repos?
[02:44] <ponch666> i don't know
[02:44] <micahcowan> !info autoscan
[02:44] <ubotu> Package autoscan does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[02:45] <micahcowan> jvai are you looking for the autoscan program? Look for "autotools", probably.
[02:45] <chili555> rockzman: read about SATA controllers here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core_2_Duo_Support?highlight=%28sata%29%7C%28controller%29
[02:45] <cafuego_> chili555: How is that relevant?
[02:45] <jvai> oooo. i have autoscan installed from source.. it works great! but it's n ?opt? by it self
[02:45] <atoponce> ponch666: how did you pull up your irc client?
[02:45] <Hypnotic> cables, nah not yet. I converted the RPMs to debs and used dpkg to install it.
[02:45] <jvai> i've been using it for 2 days.. it
[02:45] <jvai> niice
[02:46] <Pelo> atoponce,  version him , he's using the emule chat function
[02:46] <larson9999> Hypnotic: increasing the memory in the ooo options helps a ton too if you have memory to give it.
[02:46] <cables> Hypnotic, ok
[02:46] <cables> Pelo, I couldn't version him (not registered)
[02:46] <chili555> cafuego: becuz some sata controllers are just not supported on 2.6.17 kernel
[02:46] <cafuego_> chili555: he asked about ide hds though
[02:46] <Hypnotic> Cables: I used this help guide, it works well: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=397233

[02:47] <MadDog011> correct me if im wrong but you can install nvidia binary drivers from the repository, right?
[02:47] <jock_> If anybody is dual booting with windows please be carefull about their new security patch. I am not able to boot into windows at all anymore since I downloaded it. Not even last known good configuration.
[02:47] <cafuego_> MadDog011: correct
[02:47] <jrib> !nvidia > MadDog011    (MadDog011, see the private message from ubotu)

[02:47] <cables> MadDog011, yep, but you need to configure it yourself (easy, just run sudo nvidia-xconfig)
[02:47] <micahcowan> jvai, ah. In the GNU/Linux development world, autoscan is frequently associated with something else...
[02:47] <cafuego_> MadDog011: No, it's not the same as the .run file.
[02:47] <whtet> i want to change the key combination of 'Ctrl+Alt+F(n)' to 'Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F(n)' where can I change that? thanks

[02:48] <Arnar_> Hi there.. any MythTV or v4l gurus around here?
[02:48] <cafuego_> MadDog011: The repository version is prebuilt and "just works". The .run requires kernel headers, a compiler and rebuilding each time the kernel is updated.
[02:48] <tom47> video problem ..... sound continues but picture stops
[02:48] <jock_> Good luck. I am in trouble.
[02:48] <gnomefreak> PriceChild: good i can go back to filling my repo :)

[02:49] <MadDog011> cafuego_, but basically the result's are the same, you get the same driver ?
[02:49] <MadDog011> correct?
[02:49] <cafuego_> MadDog011: The repository one is a bit older.
[02:49] <Cdeszaq> Arnar_: well, I will do what I can...what's up?
[02:49] <MadDog011> you don't get anything special with the new ones...
[02:50] <cafuego_> Not really, no.
[02:50] <MadDog011> ok thanx
[02:50] <Arnar_> Cdeszaq: I just need help troubleshooting why I don't see any channels in MythTV or xawtv (scantv)
[02:50] <chili555> cafuego: on certain mobos, with 2.6.17, maybe with some tips i referred him to
[02:50] <Cdeszaq> Arnar_: what capture card do you have?
[02:50] <Arnar_> Cdeszaq: hauppauge pvr-500
[02:50] <cafuego_> Well, if you wanted to use beryl/compiz on Edgy 6.10, you'd want the .run ones probably.
[02:50] <Cdeszaq> Arnar_: sweet...same as me
[02:50] <Comrade-Sergei> Please! how can i fix a bad xserver setup so my ubuntu will boot ( im on the live cd)

[02:51] <Arnar_> Cdeszaq: nice :o) xawtv shows a black screen, but mplayer shows me the static I expected if I play /dev/video0
[02:51] <Arnar_> yup..
[02:51] <jrib> MajorPayne: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop    why?
[02:51] <Arnar_> Cdeszaq: can I change the channels in mplayer?
[02:51] <Cdeszaq> Arnar_: I am not sure...I think so, but I do not know how
[02:52] <MajorPayne> jrib: I want to stop it form running for a min, thanks.
[02:52] <Cdeszaq> Arnar_: What sort of signal do you have going into the card? Cable, antena?

[03:08] <Pelo> Comrade-Sergei,  reinstall ubuntu
[03:08] <atoponce> ep2011: what is the error that gnupg is putting out?
[03:08] <comradec> is there some kind of app like kompose for other windows manangers besides kde?
[03:09] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo oh god no there has to be another way...
[03:09] <ep2011> passphrase is "encrypted with the key *****/********" right?

[03:10] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo arent you an op?

[03:10] <tunganet> Help, i cannot find the directory of kopete.
[03:10] <Steil> wait, gaim keeps crashing when i talk to people with chink characters in their name

[03:10] <doseryder>  what is the command to exit all x services and enter the console, is it init 12?  (i know its init something)
[03:11] <Comrade-Sergei> I need to redo the X server settings correct and i am on a Live cd how do i do it?
[03:11] <z3b> doseryder: init 1
[03:11] <atoponce> doseryder: do you want to kill X, or just get into a usable terminal?
[03:11] <jock_> Pelo_: Lost xp drive this morning. the microsoft security patch for animated cursor stuffed it totally. Can't boot anymore. Want to reinstall. Will Ubuntu still recognize the other drive after? sorry still new to Linux.
[03:11] <mEck0> I have problems connecting a mysql-database from php. I have followed the example code from php.net (I am using php5)
[03:11] <Pelo> Comrade-Sergei,   you can boot up the live cd , mount your hd and use that to backup your essential data , then you can reinstall at ease, and next time,  make a seperate partition for your /home folder so you can reinstall ubuntu at leasure without worrying about your data
[03:11] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, why are you on live cd, if you were in your actual install sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg would work
[03:11] <doseryder> atoponce: something like that, I know i did it before can't remember what the argument for init
[03:11] <colbert> What is/are efficient methods of backing up one's system ?? I would like to use DVD-RW if possible

[03:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mondo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:12] <bruenig> !backup | colbert
[03:12] <ubotu> colbert: 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
[03:12] <bruenig> I like the first one
[03:12] <tony_ubuntu_newb> bruenig, Yes it is.
[03:12] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig because i cannot access the gui to the HDD
[03:12] <bruenig> tony_ubuntu_newb, ok so good
[03:12] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, you don't need gui, just get into a console
[03:12] <atoponce> doseryder: if you just want to get to a terminal, do 'ctrl-alt-f1' to get back to X 'ctrl-alt-f7'
[03:12] <Pelo> jock_,   if you are installing xp to another drive there is no problem with ubuntu , at worst you will have to specity a diferent path for the drive when it gets mounted
[03:13] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig ok so what does it bring up?
[03:13] <ssaa> please help me .   i'm having some problems with the sound of my laptop
[03:13] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, it will bring up an ncurses looking thing that will allow you to configure your xserver
[03:13] <rellik_> what would cause exim to time out when trying to send mail, if it can resolve the MX records and IP addresses?  http://pastie.caboo.se/51550
[03:13] <jock_> How? Any info somewhere?
[03:13] <colbert> how do I find out if I have a certain package installed if I know the name of the package
[03:14] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig is it a enter, enter, enter  thing?
[03:14] <bimberi> colbert: apt-cache policy package
[03:14] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, yeah
[03:14] <ardchoille> colbert: ap-cache policy appname
[03:14] <colbert> ty
[03:14] <bruenig> there are so many ways to do that
[03:14] <bimberi> yep
[03:14] <PriceChild> bruenig, Comrade-Sergei add "-phigh" to the end  :)
[03:14] <Pelo> colbert,  you can also check using synaptic,  hit the status button at the bottom left
[03:14] <Comrade-Sergei> lol
[03:14] <Zaiden> Is 6.10 any better or worse than 6.06?
[03:14] <tony_ubuntu_newb> bruenig, My guess is it's not formatted. How do I go about that?
[03:14] <killaz> hiya there ubuntu
[03:14] <bruenig> tony_ubuntu_newb, do you have gparted installed?
[03:15] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig so i dont screw it up its just defaults?
[03:15] <LeoNz> Anyone: Hi im havin g trouble installin ubuntu because i have bad sectors, how do i solve, or bypass these sectors?
[03:15] <killaz> I have some problems wit setfacl
[03:15] <PriceChild> Zaiden, 6.10 includes newer technologies but is not supported as long as 6.06 which is more stable and an LTS
[03:15] <killaz> I get opertaion not supported
[03:15] <atoponce> LeoNz: you need a new hard drive
[03:15] <awesomess3> What is Ubuntu 6.10 nicknamed?
[03:15] <atoponce> LeoNz: you can't 'bypass' them
[03:15] <atoponce> awesomess3: edfy eft
[03:15] <ardchoille> 6.10 is Edgy Eft
[03:15] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, yeah, are you actually back on your real install or not, doing that on the live cd, unless maybe if you chroot into your install won't do anything
[03:15] <clearzen> LeoNz: You can use fdisk to correct problems sometimes
[03:15] <atoponce> s/fy/gy/
[03:15] <LeoNz> clearzen from terminal or dos?
[03:15] <n-iCe> Hi i can't save /etc/network/interfaces/ changes , why ??
[03:16] <killaz> this is strange cause I have acl in fstab and I remounted the partition
[03:16] <Comrade-Sergei>  bruenig no im on the live cd but i can do it on the real install with a cli right?
[03:16] <clearzen> LeoNz: from the terminal
[03:16] <killaz> is ubuntu compiled with acl in it?
[03:16] <bruenig> n-iCe, you need to edit it as root, so sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces or some other editor if you wish
[03:16] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, right
[03:16] <tony_ubuntu_newb> bruenig, No but I will get it and install it.
[03:16] <jock_> Pelo_: I'll have a look around. Thanx
[03:16] <Comrade-Sergei> k brb thanks
[03:16] <LeoNz> kk
[03:16] <eegore> had a total system lockup
[03:16] <n-iCe> bruenig says that is a directory is why ?
[03:16] <tom47> !multimedia problems
[03:16] <bruenig> tony_ubuntu_newb, yeah, sudo apt-get install gparted, and then look in the menus for gnome partition editor, should be an easy point and click
[03:16] <eegore> I wonder if it is the result of replacing all this hardware
[03:16] <atoponce> killaz: access control lists?
[03:16] <eegore> and not reinstalling
[03:17] <bruenig> n-iCe, what do you mean save changes? how do you change a directory
[03:17] <mosh> hello, i am having an issue getting xfonts-artwiz working on my edgy install
[03:17] <atoponce> killaz: depends on the app. not sure what you're asking
[03:17] <killaz> atoponce: yup
[03:17] <dan20> I had a weird Gnome issue so I used Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, and when Gnome didn't come back up, I had to power the machine off.  When I powered it back on, Grub gave me an Error 18 error and won't continue.
[03:17] <tom47> !multimedia

[03:17] <killaz> acl as in setfacl
[03:17] <ghaspias> hello
[03:17] <killaz> atoponce: yes acl as in setfacl
[03:17] <atoponce> killaz: i'm not familiar with setfacl
[03:17] <n-iCe> bruenig i joined to that directory with pico and maked some changes next control + x >> yes >> enter and then the message showed
[03:17] <mosh> i used apt-get to install the fonts, but they are not avail when i try to use them in applications
[03:18] <killaz> I want to change the permission of a folder with the use of acl, because chmod and chown is not enough
[03:18] <bruenig> n-iCe, interfaces is not a directory
[03:18] <Pelo> later folks
[03:18] <bruenig> n-iCe, on my computer at least
[03:18] <ghaspias> has any1 here had problems with live cd for feisty corrupted?
[03:18] <bimberi> !info acl | killaz
[03:18] <ubotu> killaz: acl: Access control list utilities. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.2.39-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 42 kB, installed size 220 kB
[03:19] <xjkx> how does ubuntu do to make fluxbox add menus automatically when softwares are installed?
[03:19] <bruenig> xjkx, are you saying it does or doesn't?
[03:19] <killaz> bimberi: I already installed acl
[03:19] <killaz> bimberi: the next step is to make it work.
[03:19] <xjkx> bruenig, i am saying it does, and i wanna know how
[03:20] <bimberi> killaz: kk, i just noted that it includes /usr/bin/setfacl
[03:20] <bruenig> xjkx, well, fluxbox is different right, it has a text file that defines its menus right?
[03:20] <bimberi> killaz: as to making it work, -ENOCLUE sorry
[03:20] <killaz> bimberi: I'm doing this sudo setfacl -m u:www-data:rw recordings
[03:20] <xjkx> bruenig, right
[03:20] <mosh> has anyone else had this issue with the artwiz fonts?
[03:20] <bruenig> xjkx, I know in gnome and kde it puts a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications, perhaps it has something in its fluxbox package to make that work
[03:20] <PriceChild> xjkx, uses the debian menu system
[03:21] <xjkx> whats debian menu system?
[03:21] <tony_ubuntu_newb> bruenig, That's what  I don't get about Linux. It looks like it installed but where did it go? When I look in the programs list , its not listed.
[03:21] <bruenig> tony_ubuntu_newb, GNOME partition editor, might be in system
[03:21] <xjkx> I am actually looking for the source code of the "thing" doing it
[03:22] <gaspipe1> hey people
[03:22] <bruenig> xjkx, well if i interpreted price child correctly, it uses the .desktop method, so dpkg puts a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications on install
[03:22] <tony_ubuntu_newb> bruenig, No. Just Easy Ubuntu and Automatix.
[03:22] <nekomancer> in the interest of spreading humor http://xkcd.com/c225.html
[03:22] <n-iCe> bruenig well i got that message what can i do
[03:22] <bruenig> !automatix | tony_ubuntu_newb don't call automatix linux
[03:22] <ubotu> tony_ubuntu_newb don't call automatix linux: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:22] <xjkx> bruenig, fluxbox doesnt read /usr/share/applications
[03:23] <bruenig> xjkx, have PriceChild explain himself
[03:23] <PriceChild> hehe easier said than done...
[03:23] <red|rain> hi ^_^ OOo Calc won't print the numbers just the grid any ideas?
[03:23] <dan20> Anyone have any ideas on my grub error 18?
[03:24] <ssstormy> hello, I have a quick question
[03:24] <PriceChild> xjkx, /etc/X11/fluxbox/fluxbox-menu
[03:24] <tony_ubuntu_newb> !WorksForMe
[03:24] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[03:24] <nekomancer> ssstormy, ask it.
[03:24] <atoponce> ssstormy: then ask
[03:24] <ssstormy> I know how to use xosd, but how do I send messages to a user in a nice little gui box with buttons or something
[03:24] <xjkx> PriceChild, fluxbox menu needs manually adding
[03:24] <smileboot> thats a WHOLE lot of users
[03:24] <bam79> I need to edit the menu.lst file but it says I'm not the owner and don't have permission. How can I change that?
[03:24] <PriceChild> xjkx, read that file _but don't edit it_
[03:24] <PriceChild> xjkx, it contains instructions :)
[03:25] <jaevel> can any1 help me get my nic card working again?? using ubuntu with KDE?
[03:25] <ssstormy> I don't even need specific instructions, just the name of the program or the library or something
[03:25] <dan20> bam79, you need to type 'sudo nano -w /boot/grub/menu.lst' from a command terminal
[03:25] <colbert> I am configuring Simple Backup to backup my system, is it wise to include or exclude /sys and /dev in the backup ??
[03:25] <PriceChild> dan20, have you looked up what that error code means?
[03:25] <colbert> or does it matter
[03:25] <bam79> Thank you, dan20
[03:25] <bruenig> colbert, I would say unnecessary
[03:26] <tony_ubuntu_newb> bruenig, Ok. Do you know how to find the program I just installed?
[03:26] <dan20> PriceChild, It normally has to do with BIOS not finding the kernel because it's out of the first 1024 blocks of the hard drive.
[03:26] <colbert> bruenig, will it hurt backup if I do include it?
[03:26] <xjkx> PriceChild, i know how to add menus manually, thats what it teaches me " If you read this it means you want to edit this file manually, so here..."
[03:26] <mosh> this is driving me crazy, why aren't the artwiz fonts i installed with apt-get working!!
[03:26] <Steil> colbert: you'll want to exclude /dev for sure
[03:26] <dan20> PriceChild, but I've already successfully rebooted into this system several times with no problem, so this simply cannot be the issue.  I routinely have Windows installed first on the hard drive, then swap, then / and I've never had an issue until this last time I rebooted.
[03:27] <PriceChild> dan20, I'm sorry I have to go.
[03:27] <colbert> Steil, ok, just curious, why?
[03:27] <PriceChild> xjkx, but it indicates how the file is autogenerated no?
[03:27] <n-iCe> to see my wireless ocnfiguration? is lwconfig or how ??
[03:27] <Steil> colbert: /dev is generated by udev every boot
[03:27] <fghj> I got afs to install (woot!) now, how do I tell which cell I want to connect to?
[03:27] <Steil> theres nothing in there you'd want to backup
[03:27] <colbert> ok
[03:28] <colbert> and what would the best way be to restore? During/after a fresh install or from live cd, or ?
[03:28] <xjkx> PriceChild, not here, sorry i use freebsd, i just wanted to know how ubuntu is doing it :>
[03:28] <xjkx> maybe its not explained on mine
[03:28] <nino> if im using fglrx drivers w/my ATI card
[03:28] <PriceChild> xjkx, ah :)
[03:29] <nino> what option do i chose when installing beryl?
[03:29] <nino> xgl, or aiglx?
[03:29] <xjkx> PriceChild, what is your saying xD
[03:29] <PriceChild> xjkx, I'm sorry I have to go though.
[03:29] <xjkx> :<
[03:29] <Steil> colbert: if you're backing up your whole system, to restore the backup...use a live cd copy everything back to /, and reinstall grub
[03:29] <xjkx> cya
[03:29] <n-iCe> to see my wireless ocnfiguration? is lwconfig or how ??
[03:29] <TooR4u> Hee i want to take the screen shot while rotating the cube in beryl .......How to take the screenshot while rotating .....?
[03:29] <colbert> nino, fglrx definitely XGL
[03:29] <nino> colbert: thank you sir
[03:30] <colbert> Steil, ok, thanks, that is what I thought
[03:30] <PoofDaddy> Can someone please tell me why Grip takes 20 hours for me to rip an entire CD?
[03:30] <TooR4u> No body in #beryl knows that ...
[03:30] <smileboot> ok i have a problem actually installing ubuntu. It boots from CD i get the options i hit install/run  then it gives me the rolling bar then about 2 mins after that it freezes
[03:30] <TooR4u> how to take the screenshot ....?
[03:30] <colbert> TooR4u, I do that all the time, just hit Print Screen
[03:30] <Kevlar_Soul> HELP with C-SPAN http://i13.tinypic.com/2v8mzxt.png
[03:31] <colbert> TooR4u, be sure to check your bindings in the Beryl Settings Manager to ensure it isn't used by something else possibly
[03:31] <TooR4u> colbert, on rotating the screen?
[03:31] <dan20> smileboot, how is your video card hooked up to your monitor?  What type of connection (DVI-DVI, VGA-VGA, DVI-HDMI)?
[03:31] <jaevel> any know how i can re-install or get my nic card working again??? i uninstalled all the tcp stuff and it removed the nic??
[03:31] <colbert> Steil, ok, I have /proc, /tmp and /dev listed in to "Exclude" form backup in the config.. anything else to exclude?
[03:31] <smileboot> vga
[03:31] <smileboot> im installing on an old dell
[03:31] <smileboot> so its integrated
[03:31] <dan20> smileboot: Okay, nevermind :)
[03:31] <smileboot> intel based
[03:31] <mosh> nvm, gotit
[03:32] <colbert> TooR4u, yeah, just rotate the cube to where you like and make sure you hold that spot , hit PRNT SCRN, and hold that spot until you see the little screenshot window popup on one of the workspaces
[03:32] <nino> dan20: i used dvi to dvi, and mine worked :)
[03:32] <colbert> TooR4u, be sure to *hold* the screen to that position even after you hit PRNT SCRN
[03:32] <nino> or does analog have problems?
[03:32] <colbert> TooR4u, otherwise, it will come out jagged if you let go a bit early
[03:32] <dan20> nino, I can use DVI to DVI too.  When I use DVI to HDMI though, I can't get anything to work.
[03:32] <nino> ahh.. i see

[03:32] <Steil> colbert: not really sure, sorry.
[03:33] <nino> so you can't display beryl on your 60" plasma? :(
[03:33] <nino> hehe
[03:33] <tom47> !sound
[03:33] <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).

[03:33] <dan20> nano:  lol, 37", but yeah
[03:33] <NDAKOTA> hi
[03:33] <nino> dan20: heh, woah.. that's what i have too
[03:33] <smileboot> dan20 do you know how i can view whats happening so i can see where its locking up?
[03:33] <nino> lcd tho
[03:33] <PoofDaddy> TooR4u: are you using Ubuntu?
[03:33] <TooR4u> colbert, I am rotating the cube in 2 ways 1)ctrl +alt + left mouse click 2) moving the mouse wheel  ...... On both cases the printscreen is not working ...
[03:33] <dan20> dan20, No, I'm not sure how to troubleshoot your issue.
[03:33] <TooR4u> PoofDaddy, yah
[03:33] <dan20> nino, mine's an LCD too

[03:34] <nino> philips too*
[03:34] <dan20> ah
[03:34] <PoofDaddy> TooR4u: in gnome if you go to Applications -> Accessories -> Take screenshot.
[03:34] <NDAKOTA> m
[03:34] <nino> dan20: any luck connecting via s-video?
[03:34] <colbert> TooR4u, I usually use my middle button to click, it then zooms out on the cube, I simply move till I have the position I want and hold the mouse button down.. then hit PRNT SCRN
[03:34] <nino> i mean, cable box to cpu
[03:34] <dan20> nino, i've never used s-video for it.  I just resolved it by using VGA to VGA
[03:34] <colbert> TooR4u, Check your Beryl Settings Manager to make sure your PRNT SCRN key isn't binded to something else
[03:34] <nino> or have you tried that?
[03:34] <dan20> nino, my TV has 3 HDMI connections, VGA, and S-Video
[03:35] <dan20> nino, so I just hooked my computer up via VGA
[03:35] <dan20> and it worked fine
[03:35] <nino> ahh okay
[03:35] <smileboot> does anyone know i can see whats happening during install instead of showing that rolling bar so i can see where its locking up
[03:35] <nino> im thinkin of something else tho
[03:35] <PoofDaddy> TooR4u: i understand you are using Beryl.  I'm not a fan of that eye candy crap, but there is something you can do called a screencast that is video of what you see on the screen.
[03:35] <nino> im talking about for purposes of watching tv in ubuntu :)
[03:35] <NDAKOTA> o
[03:35] <TooR4u> colbert, can u stop the moment of the cube while rotating ....
[03:35] <Kevlar_Soul> No one helps me.
[03:35] <Kevlar_Soul> No one helps me.
[03:35] <dan20> I just got a PS3 instead to play blueray discs rather than using the computer to watch DVDs
[03:35] <Kevlar_Soul> HELP with C-SPAN http://i13.tinypic.com/2v8mzxt.png
[03:35] <tom47> is there a video troubleshooting reference for ubuntu please?
[03:35] <gaspipe1> just curious... I have 6.10 64bit, and I am waiting for 7.04 final to be released. Should I upgrade using 64 bit... or should I do a re-install with 32 bit.
[03:35] <TooR4u> PoofDaddy, ookey ..:)
[03:36] <nino> what about live tv? ;)
[03:36] <dan20> nino, Oh, no, I just watch TV on the TV lol
[03:36] <nino> hehe
[03:36] <dan20> dan20, I have the computer hooked up to it and the cable hooked up to it too
[03:36] <TooR4u> colbert, how to stop that .?
[03:36] <nino> sometimes im too lazy to turn my chair around to the tv :p
[03:36] <NDAKOTA> i got a ati tv wonder card, but its reception is not acceptable
[03:36] <mjr> gaspipe1, that so completely depends
[03:36] <dan20> nino, so I just change the source using my remote
[03:36] <gaspipe1> I saw that wine isn't supported with 64 bit and such. I want to try out linux mce
[03:36] <dan20> and it switches computer display to tv
[03:36] <NDAKOTA> is anyone using a tv wonder card to watch tv on a computer?
[03:36] <nino> very nice
[03:36] <colbert> TooR4u, you mean hold the cube while rotating it? Of course, again I use middle mouse button to zoom out and move the cube around.. so I just stop moving my mouse with the middle button pressed and it stays where I have it
[03:37] <dan20> nino, Or I can split screen TV and computer lol
[03:37] <PoofDaddy> TooR4u: I'm having trouble doing it because I'm a n00b.  But you may have Istanbul pre-installed.  It's a screen capture software.
[03:37] <gaspipe1> mjr: hmmm it's just that right after i installed 64 bit I read that you should use 32bit b/c it is supported
[03:37] <colbert> dan20, that sounds neat :)
[03:37] <dan20> :)
[03:37] <nino> okay, im gonna try and get beryl working
[03:37] <dan20> It would be neat if I could get this grub issue solved
[03:37] <smileboot> ok i have to goto sleep ill be back to pester you all to help me later
[03:37] <Kevlar_Soul> ?? Should I just change my name to invisible? http://i13.tinypic.com/2v8mzxt.png
[03:37] <mjr> gaspipe1, you can install wine on the 64-bit ubuntu, but it would require more manual labor; see http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit
[03:37] <NDAKOTA> is anyone using an ATI tv wonder card?
[03:37] <TooR4u> colbert, soooo ... I have to chek my configuration settings ...
[03:38] <gaspipe1> mjr: i'm new to linux... and simple is my friend for now
[03:38] <colbert> TooR4u, what kind of mouse do you have and how many buttons
[03:38] <shooters> When I play games (i.e. Java) on firefox, after a while (~ 15 mins), the arrow keys get activated on their own (i.e. the character moves to the right even if I don't press the right key).  Any idea how to fix?
[03:38] <z3b> Kevlar_Soul: what exactly is your problem?
[03:38] <mjr> gaspipe1, it's not a question of being supported. It's a question of if you for some reason want proprietary 32-bit stuff.
[03:38] <NDAKOTA> my tv wonder card can only receive one channel
[03:38] <colbert> Kevlar_Soul, have you tried other players like VLC?
[03:38] <TooR4u> colbert, I am using logitech mouse (Normal mouse)
[03:38] <Kevlar_Soul> z3b:  http://i13.tinypic.com/2v8mzxt.png
[03:38] <gaspipe1> mjr: like flash and shockwave?
[03:39] <NDAKOTA> is anyone using a tv card
[03:39] <Kevlar_Soul> colbert:  Totem is supposed to work
[03:39] <mjr> like
[03:39] <colbert> TooR4u, # of buttons ?
[03:39] <MadDog011> !multiverse
[03:39] <ubotu> 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
[03:39] <z3b> Kevlar_Soul: What URI are you trying to access?
[03:39] <dan20> Totem never works out of the box for me
[03:39] <dan20> Playing anything
[03:39] <colbert> same
[03:39] <z3b> Kevlar_Soul: (what video)
[03:39] <dan20> I just install VLC lol
[03:39] <colbert> i just use vlc
[03:39] <TooR4u> colbert, 3 buttons (left+ wheel + right)
[03:39] <colbert> lol
[03:39] <colbert> TooR4u, is the wheel a button too? Can it be pressed down?
[03:39] <Kevlar_Soul> z3b:  Any of them under the video list http://i13.tinypic.com/2v8mzxt.png
[03:39] <TooR4u> colbert, yah
[03:40] <Kevlar_Soul> VLC works on those links in the video section in the middle of Cspan.org
[03:40] <Kevlar_Soul> ?
[03:40] <dan20> Kevlar_Soul, you really don't have to link us to your issue every time you make a comment about it.
[03:40] <colbert> TooR4u, Have you tried pressing down on it and what happens when in beryl?
[03:40] <Kevlar_Soul> dan20:  really ? http://i13.tinypic.com/2v8mzxt.png
[03:40] <gaspipe1> mjr: what do u use 32 or 64 bit?
[03:40] <TooR4u> colbert, i observe nothing ...
[03:40] <dan20> Kevlar_Soul, good luck getting help by acting obnoxious like that.
[03:40] <Kevlar_Soul> dan20:  thanks for all your help, instead you make fun of newbs
[03:40] <bimberi> Kevlar_Soul: for future reference it's usually better to give some clue to the nature of the problem in your question.  Posting random links is the work of spammers and many just ignore it.
[03:40] <yell0w> hey folks, what does the d in id in a result of searching a package with aptitude stand for ?
[03:40] <mjr> gaspipe1, 64, but I'm experienced and don't priritize legacy 32-bit stuff very high
[03:41] <Kevlar_Soul> bimberi:  not random link, thanks for playing.
[03:41] <TooR4u> colbert, I saw the "Beryl settings manager " But ... I am confused as there are lot of options ....
[03:41] <z3b> Kevlar_Soul: both types of video streams are proprietary, i've not had much luck playing real media or windows media in totem. try vlc or mplayer with w32codecs.
[03:41] <bimberi> Kevlar_Soul: random to me, np.
[03:41] <dan20> Kevlar_Soul, no problem.
[03:41] <MadDog011> hm I have a problem, my country repository is apparently not working, how do I use some other repo because if I change from CS.archive.... to US.archive I get forwarded to the same ip
[03:41] <Hypnotic> NDAKOTA: I have a TV wonder elite that isn't supported. The WinFast cards are supported thogh
[03:41] <RodT> Good evening.  Have a question regarding dual booting with a Vista system on two physical drives.
[03:41] <colbert> TooR4u, Let me login to my Beryl session then I can help better, hang on i'll brb
[03:41] <yell0w> MadDog011, try ca.arch
[03:41] <TooR4u> okey
[03:41] <Kevlar_Soul> z3b:  you think I should unload Totem? is that what you are referring to?
[03:42] <MadDog011> yell0w same...
[03:42] <MadDog011> tried
[03:42] <dan20> z3b, VLC can play windows media out of the box, so it would be a good choice.
[03:42] <gaspipe1> mjr: so would you rec. 32 for someone who is new to linux and been on windows since my 64C went into the garage?
[03:42] <dan20> It can't play RM though
[03:42] <jrib> yell0w: like in http://people.debian.org/~dburrows/aptitude-doc/en/ch02s02s02.html ?
[03:42] <z3b> Kevlar_Soul: no need to remove totem. just install vlc.
[03:42] <MadDog011> oh works
[03:42] <Aldanon27> heya's all ;)
[03:42] <chowmeined> How can I get cifs to preserver permissions? Every file my users creates is created with root permissions and then they cant access it anymore
[03:42] <chowmeined> preserve*
[03:42] <Kevlar_Soul> z3b:  VLC is installed.
[03:42] <mjr> gaspipe1, if you were a flash fan. If you'd be a free software user, it wouldn't really make a difference
[03:42] <Aldanon27> i'm trying to run nvidia x server settings... but when i try to save the x config file it says "Unable to create backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup"
[03:43] <mjr> usabilitywise
[03:43] <MadDog011> slow as hell but works
[03:43] <yell0w> jrib, thanks, thought somebody's know offhand :P
[03:43] <gaspipe1> mjr: ok...thanks
[03:43] <blu2> hi all, using 6.06 is there a way to choose which screensavers I can use or not use? I dont see this option when I go into system>preferences>screensaver
[03:43] <gaspipe1> anyone check out linux mce?
[03:43] <dan20> Kevlar_Soul, it looks like most of those links on Cspan.org are in Real Media format.  VLC wouldn't be able to play those either.
[03:44] <Aldanon27> i'm trying to run nvidia x server settings... but when i try to save the x config file it says "Unable to create backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup"
[03:44] <Kevlar_Soul> dan20:  what do you suggest?
[03:44] <Aldanon27> anyone know why it won't save?
[03:44] <dan20> Kevlar_Soul, You need to find some type of player that can play Real Media format in Linux.
[03:45] <dan20> Kevlar_Soul, http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?&
[03:45] <colbert> TooR4u, ok, go to Beryl Settings Manager, be in General Options (at top), then on left click Shortcuts
[03:45] <TooR4u> okey 1m
[03:45] <dan20> There's a section for Unix/Linux players, but I can't guarantee it will work or explain how to install/configure it because I've never used it.
[03:45] <Alan> I have a bit of a problem...  whenever i put the lid down, Xorg crashes on lid up ....
[03:45] <Kevlar_Soul> No one else here got them to play without Real Player?
[03:45] <bigjohnto> ls
[03:45] <RodT> If I install ubuntu on a second physical drive on my machine, can I simply boot into it by changing the boot order in my BIOS settings, and then if I need to go back to Vista for anything just reboot and change the boot order back to the Vista drive?
[03:45] <bigjohnto> hello
[03:45] <bam79> Help again, please. I edited the menu.lst file to show Vista in the GRUB menu, however, when I attempt to startup Vista, I get BOOTMGR is missing.... what is this and how do I fix it?
[03:46] <bigjohnto> can i combine two files that were created by dd?
[03:46] <dan20> Kevlar_Soul, they're Real format, so you'd have to have something that can play Real Media, otherwise it simply will not play.
[03:46] <Moosejaw> any graphic artists here and willing to do a small project for me?
[03:46] <bigjohnto> one is part 1 and the other is part 2
[03:46] <bigjohnto> i need part1 and part2 to be combined
[03:46] <Aldanon27> RodT: ubuntu will install Grub boot loader which will give the option to choose which OS you want
[03:46] <dan20> RodT, You don't mess with the boot order in BIOS
[03:46] <Aldanon27> no need to change the boot order
[03:46] <dan20> ^
[03:46] <RodT> Aldanon: I read somewhere that it'll screw up Vista's boot loader, though.  True or not?
[03:47] <bigjohnto> how can you combine two binary files?
[03:47] <Kevlar_Soul> Cool
[03:47] <TooR4u> colbert, In General Options i have 6 thins 1)General choices 2)Numaric values 3)commands 4)filenames 5)keyboard6)mouse
[03:47] <Kevlar_Soul> Thanks
[03:47] <dan20> RodT, It will, but Grub can do the same job, which is booting into Windows or Linux.
[03:47] <Kevlar_Soul> Thanks dan20
[03:47] <dan20> yw
[03:47] <TooR4u> colbert, out of these which way i have to go
[03:47] <TooR4u> ?
[03:47] <Aldanon27> Rodt: You need to install ubuntu after vista
[03:47] <Aldanon27> otherwise i never had issues
[03:47] <colbert> TooR4u, are you in the Beryl Settings Manager?
[03:47] <dan20> RodT, and if you reinstall Vista later, you will have to reinstall Grub again.
[03:48] <Puppy_> I have an older computer that I am wondering if it is good enough for ubuntu or if I should put xubuntu on it. It has 512 megabites of ram and a pentium 4 prossesor.
[03:48] <TooR4u> yahhh
[03:48] <TooR4u> colbert, conform
[03:48] <RodT> dan20: Ok, thanks.  Just thought I read somewhere that grub will make the Vista drive unreadable.
[03:48] <dan20> RodT, no, that's not true.
[03:48] <eilker> anyone installed oracle on ubuntu ?
[03:48] <TooR4u> colbert, can i send my screenshot?
[03:48] <colbert> TooR4u, open up terminal and type "beryl --version"
[03:48] <dan20> RodT, it could, if you made some major mistake.
[03:48] <jessid> ey sorry for this question, but I can't remember the name of the set of characters that are like an extension of ASCII... :-/
[03:48] <RodT> Aldanon: Got it.  Vista's installed now.  Ubuntu is on the live CD.
[03:48] <Xang> eilker; yes
[03:48] <TooR4u> okey
[03:48] <dan20> RodT, but any time you edit partition tables on a drive, you risk data loss.
[03:48] <bimberi> eilker: yes, 9i
[03:48] <blu2> eilker, i have
[03:49] <eilker>  it has gui front end ?

[03:49] <bigjohnto> just bugging you guys
[03:49] <dan20> bigjohnto, Ubuntu does offer live support, but you have to pay for it.
[03:50] <bimberi> bigjohnto: try this   cp file1 file3 && cat file2 >> file3
[03:50] <jrib> Kevlar_Soul: can you open "rtsp://video.c-span.org/60days/whpb040207.rm?mode=compact" directly? (try mplayer with w32codecs)
[03:50] <seshakiran> hello everyone
[03:50] <RodT> Aldanon: That was something I read.  Okay.
[03:50] <blu2> eilker, are you having a problem getting the installer to start?

[03:53] <bam79> dan20, I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop that came with Vista installed. I edited the GRUB menu to show Vista as an option. When I try to startup Vista, I get "BOOTMGR is missing" I either need access to Vista or I need to pull Ubuntu off, hopefully without reformatting the HD and losing all of my data.
[03:53] <chowmeined> please just tell me
[03:53] <jrib> Kevlar_Soul: do you know if they work on windows?
[03:54] <chowmeined> I just want to be able to write to cifs and then read from cifs mounts
[03:54] <chowmeined> i dont care if all the files are 777
[03:54] <Kevlar_Soul> jrib, yeah, they do.
[03:54] <dan20> bam79, I need to see your /boot/grub/grub.conf
[03:54] <fu-k-t> i have a quick command-line question: Is there a way for me to pipe the output of a program to both a file and STDOUT at the same time?
[03:54] <jrib> fu-k-t: use tee
[03:54] <B_B_B> fu-k-t , try "tee"
[03:55] <bam79> dan20, shall I type it up for you or what?
[03:55] <dan20> bam79, copy of, then search google for a "pastebin", then you can paste it in there and give me the link to it.
[03:55] <dan20> copy it*
[03:55] <ardchoille> !pastebin
[03:55] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:55] <TooR4u> Is there any other method to get root status without entering "sudo su"...?
[03:55] <bimberi> TooR4u: sudo -i
[03:55] <ardchoille> TooR4u: sudo -i
[03:55] <chowmeined> sudo -i
[03:55] <Kevlar_Soul> jrib, can you get them to work?
[03:55] <chowmeined> sudo passwd ... su -
[03:55] <dan20> Thanks ardchoille
[03:55] <fu-k-t> thanks, jrib and B_B_B
[03:55] <bam79> dan20, can't copy and paste. The lappy has no internet access due to the wireless card not being found by Ubuntu. I am on a desktop.
[03:56] <dan20> lol
[03:56] <dan20> bam79, Type out the windows part
[03:56] <jrib> Kevlar_Soul: nope
[03:56] <dan20> into the pastebin
[03:56] <TooR4u> ardchoille, loolllllllllllllll ...... But we need password ;)
[03:56] <dan20> bam79, it should only be like five lines
[03:56] <Kevlar_Soul> jrib:  oh well I'll figure something out.
[03:56] <Kevlar_Soul> thanks all
[03:56] <TooR4u> I dont want to enter the password
[03:56] <ardchoille> TooR4u: sudo -i  <-- use your passwd, lol
[03:56] <dan20> bam79, near the bottom of the file
[03:56] <bam79> dan20, will do... give me a couple of minutes.
[03:57] <dan20> actually
[03:57] <noelferreira> what can i use to copy files to my web page location?
[03:57] <TooR4u> ardchoille, i dont want to use the password
[03:57] <colbert> TooR4u, open up terminal and type "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"   then check if the beryl repo is in there and whether it is commented out or not (has a # at the beginning of the line)

[03:57] <karmax> hello, sorry for bother, maybe this is a kubuntu *only* problem, so sorry again. Im using kubuntu and after a fresh install i update everything with adept but it fails with libc6-i686 and fails and fails
[03:57] <colbert> ardchoille, true
[03:57] <dan20> bam79, that is what your windows section should look like in grub.conf
[03:57] <karmax> (kubuntu last version)
[03:58] <dan20> karmax, what's the error it's giving when it fails
[03:58] <colbert> TooR4u, and what video card do you have? If ATI, are you using fglrx drivers?
[03:58] <bam79> dan20, boot/grub/grub.conf doesn't exist.
[03:58] <dan20> 1 sec
[03:58] <dan20> bam79, /etc/grub.conf
[03:58] <ardchoille> dan20: Did you mean /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[03:59] <dan20> ardchoille, no, I mean /etc/grub.conf
[03:59] <ardchoille> Ah
[03:59] <noelferreira> what can i use to upload files for my web location?
[03:59] <jessid> some of you know which app can I use to convert an image into ASCII? thanks!

[03:59] <aozaki> I mounted a sever (Places > Connect to Sever...) I can connect to it without a problem using the gui, but how do I connect to it using the terminal?
[03:59] <TooR4u> these are the links in My source list
[03:59] <ardchoille> TooR4u: Are you using automatix?
[04:00] <dan20> jessid, try http://csl.sublevel3.org/jp2a/
[04:00] <TooR4u> ardchoille, nope .....
[04:00] <ardchoille> TooR4u: Good
[04:00] <BlackLiger> j wrongplanet
[04:00] <killaz> anyone with acl experience?
[04:00] <jessid> dan20: I will. Thanks a lot!
[04:00] <dan20> jessid, np
[04:00] <killaz> cause I'm stuck using acl...
[04:00] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  I just installed Samba network file sharing stuff.  When I try to connect with my windows computer, it asks for a name/password.  What do I use?
[04:00] <bam79> dan20, /etc/grub.conf does not exist.
[04:01] <noelferreira> people
[04:01] <TooR4u> ardchoille, why are u asking like that?
[04:01] <noelferreira> pleas
[04:01] <TooR4u>  ...
[04:01] <dan20> bam79, then you'll have a major problem when trying to boot any operating system lol
[04:01] <colbert> TooR4u, ok, what did you use to initially install beryl ?
[04:01] <ardchoille> TooR4u: Just curious
[04:01] <noelferreira> how can i upload files for my webpage location
[04:01] <colbert> TooR4u, in terms of a website
[04:01] <noelferreira> ?
[04:01] <bam79> dan20, obviously. :P
[04:01] <dan20> bam79, at this point, it would be time to look for your Vista install CD.
[04:01] <noelferreira> people please
[04:01] <dan20> bam79, You should be able to boot from your Vista CD, then when you get into the install, there should be a rescue console option
[04:02] <TooR4u> colbert, i have followed the tutorial in Ubuntuforums
[04:02] <karmax> dan20: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13811/
[04:02] <bam79> dan20, I didn't get a Vista install CD... all I got was a complete restore disk that will reformat and reinstal to factory image.... is that my only option?
[04:02] <ardchoille> noelferreira: gftp ?
[04:02] <dan20> bam79, from there, it should take you to a "dos" type prompt.  Type fixmbr, then fixboot, it should let you back into Vista with no loss of data in Vista
[04:02] <colbert> TooR4u, sorry, I'm a bit too new to really help you any further.. have you tried #beryl?
[04:02] <noelferreira> thankss ardchoille
[04:02] <colbert> TooR4u, or #ubuntu-effects
[04:02] <dan20> bam79, You could try booting off that and see if it takes you into a Vista install environment
[04:03] <TooR4u> colbert, i have been asking these questions in #beryl from 3 days
[04:03] <bam79> dan20, it won't when booting from that disk it automatically reformats and restores to factory image.
[04:03] <TooR4u> No one there knows that
[04:03] <Factory> You guys are killing me with the Factory business.
[04:03] <dan20> bam79, You're sure, it just automatically wipes everything?
[04:03] <bam79> dan20, I'm sure.
[04:03] <aozaki> If you mount a server, where is it in the file system?
[04:04] <ardchoille> aozaki: It's at the mount point you specified
[04:04] <dan20> bam79, if you know someone that has vista, you could make a boot floppy i'm guessing
[04:04] <ardchoille> aozaki: What is the command you used to mount it?
[04:04] <dan20> karmax, I'm not sure what this error is.  You're running apt-get as root, yes?
[04:04] <bam79> dan20, I don't. Looks like that is my only option. Thanks for your help, nonetheless.
[04:05] <colbert> TooR4u, Perhaps you can try Gimp.. start it up, then hit File > Acquire > Screenshot.. then click either Single Window or Whole Screen, and then you can set "Grab After" to like 5 seconds, so that you can rotate the cube and after 5 seconds it will take a screenshot
[04:05] <aozaki> ardchoille: I didn't specify anything though. i went to places> connect to server. I can see it on my desktop but don't know how to find it in the terminal
[04:05] <dan20> bam79, sorry I couldn't do more for you.
[04:05] <colbert> TooR4u, other than that, I am out of ideas about it :(

[04:07] <ardchoille> aozaki: It won't be in your file system, then.
[04:07] <dan20> Assuming you're just trying to update it and not install it from scratch
[04:07] <dan20> I'm really not sure what the error means though, to be honest.
[04:07] <seshakiran> hello..hello
[04:07] <nekomancer> seshakiran, hello
[04:08] <ardchoille> aozaki: iirc, nautilus can connect to it. Open nautilus and type the "user@host" into the textbox.
[04:08] <karmax> dan20: this kind of problems are normal in ubuntu?
[04:08] <seshakiran> neko: ah...thanks for answering
[04:08] <dan20> karmax, not at all, or I'd probably be able to help you more lol
[04:08] <seshakiran> I have a question regarding the Napster client on Ubuntu
[04:08] <aozaki> ardchoille: will do, thanks
[04:08] <dan20> karmax, i can normally install ubuntu, update the system, install ATI drivers, and get everything running about as easily as I can in Windows XP Pro.
[04:08] <TooR4u> colbert, kooooooooooooolollll  working dude ...
[04:09] <dan20> If not easier
[04:09] <seshakiran> Is there any client available for 6.06?
[04:09] <killaz> thus us ridiculous noone know anything about setfacl?
[04:09] <killaz> this*
[04:09] <colbert> TooR4u, awesome! :)
[04:09] <karmax> dan20: i only install kubuntu *normal install, then run adept to update everything.. and thats it, an error with libc6-i686
[04:09] <gianfranco_> hello?
[04:09] <bgmrk> he
[04:09] <z3b> killaz: sorry if you need to repeat yourself.. what are you trying to do?
[04:09] <whombat> hi @ all
[04:10] <dan20> karmax, hmm.  It seems like a really random issue.  I don't use kde though, so I'm not up on adept issues (if this is an adept issue, which it probably isn't)
[04:10] <whombat>  mkdir ~/.azureus/plugins/safepeer && unzip safepeer_2.5.1.zip ~/.azureus/plugins/safepeer
[04:10] <whombat> mkdir: kann Verzeichnis /home/exmethix/.azureus/plugins/safepeer nicht anlegen: No such file or directory
[04:10] <gianfranco_> Quin es de venezuela o habla espaol?
[04:10] <bgmrk> i have a tiny question
[04:10] <dan20> karmax, I'm not expert in general, so someone else could probably help you better
[04:10] <nekomancer> seshakiran, i'm very sorry, i can't help :S  i don't know about file sharing, other than DC++ and torrent.  i'll search and see if i can't find a better answer tho

[04:10] <whombat> could somebody hlp?
[04:10] <bgmrk> can u access files on your HDD through ubuntu
[04:10] <killaz> z3b: I'm trying to use setfacl to give another user rw permission on a foldeer
[04:11] <seshakiran> neko: thanks a lot.  I was wondering why Napster is only supporting windows?
[04:11] <dan20> bgmrk:  You'll have to be more specific.  Ubuntu is files on your HDD.
[04:11] <killaz> z3b: but this attempt is giving me a message operation not permitted
[04:11] <bgmrk> no like....get to your program files
[04:11] <bgmrk> in the C: drive
[04:11] <killaz> z3b: operation not supported, I mena
[04:11] <killaz> mean*
[04:11] <Inuyaga> can anyone tell me the package that will give me the sys/*** header files. Need to compile a kernel module to get my EX8350 RAID working.
[04:11] <z3b> killaz: what filesystem? what command are you using? who is the other user?
[04:11] <dan20> bgmrk, you mean mess with Windows files from inside Ubuntu?
[04:11] <karmax> dan20: dont know... i dont know what to do to fix this broken status
[04:11] <bgmrk> without having ubuntu installed on your computer
[04:12] <bgmrk> i just need to see what programs i have installed on my comp
[04:12] <dan20> karmax, You're in a pretty early stage, if it was me I'd just reinstall.
[04:12] <dogmeat> which player can i use to watch dvds?
[04:12] <dan20> bgmrk, what programs installed in Windows or in Ubuntu?
[04:12] <bgmrk> windows
[04:12] <dan20> bgmrk, You can't just boot into Windows?
[04:12] <bgmrk> nope
[04:12] <bgmrk> windows is currently broke
[04:12] <killaz> z3b: filesystem: ext3, command: sudo setfacl -m u:www-data:rw recordings, the other user is www-data
[04:13] <bgmrk> i gotta reformat..but i need a list of programs i have on my comp
[04:13] <bgmrk> so if i can get access just to see the files
[04:13] <dan20> bgmrk, you could mount the Windows partition in Linus
[04:13] <z3b> killaz: dude, you need to brush up your linux-fu. use chmod/chown.
[04:13] <dan20> linux*
[04:13] <Alonea> how do I get my webcam to show up in kopete?
[04:13] <Alonea> i think I installed the drivers right, but I don't see any devices on kopete?
[04:13] <bgmrk> dan? can we talk in personal chat?
[04:13] <nekomancer> seshakiran, there is a knapster client that may do what you wish.  install using [in terminal]  $ sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install knapster2
[04:13] <karmax> dan20: thanks, c ya
[04:13] <killaz> z3b: linux-fu???
[04:13] <dan20> bgmrk I'm not a registered user, hold on
[04:13] <nekomancer> seshakiran, it may work.  i don't know tho.  hope it helps
[04:13] <dan20> karmax, np
[04:14] <bgmrk> kk
[04:14] <killaz> z3b: chmod/chown wont do...
[04:14] <seshakiran> neko: I think I tried it earlier.  Let me try again anyways.
[04:14] <tyler_d> Gnome? KDE? Or other???
[04:14] <z3b> killaz: really? how so?
[04:14] <ardchoille> killaz: Why not?
[04:14] <tulio__> how do i know if my ubuntu is supporting my dual processor?
[04:14] <killaz> I have a user that I dont want to add to the group owner of that folder
[04:14] <PoSHi> hi
[04:14] <Inuyaga> anyone. Linux headers... what module?
[04:15] <PoSHi> i saw itanium2 whit ubuntu :D
[04:15] <m4jqp> if i change stuff in fdisk, like delete some partitions and add some stuff will writing out format the changed partitions?
[04:15] <killaz> the user www-data shouldnt be in the group... but still needs rw permission
[04:15] <seshakiran> neko: trying it now. will let you know in few minutes
[04:15] <dan20> bgmrk, i send you a query message
[04:15] <PoSHi> quit
[04:16] <z3b> killaz: why not change the directory to be owned by group www-data?
[04:16] <z3b> killaz: plus rw for group www-data.
[04:16] <ardchoille> z3b: I thought that was the default behaviour anyway
[04:17] <jerkface0> Stupid question: When I compile my test programs with gcc, why do I have to run it by putting a ./ infront of name of the output file?? Why can't I just type in the name of the output file by itself?
[04:17] <killaz> hmm I have a user A in group G, user A is owner and Group G of the directory. So the others in this group should read and wrote to this folder...
[04:17] <seshakiran> neko: this is for an old version of the napstrer
[04:17] <jerkface0> When I type in the name of the output file by itself it gives me a command not found error
[04:17] <jerkface0> I'm new to linux :X
[04:17] <ardchoille> jerkface0: Because the output file isn't in your $PATH
[04:17] <seshakiran> neko: not after Napster came out with the DRM
[04:17] <sirkism> where to extract drivers to?
[04:18] <dan20> jerkface0, it has something to do with using absolute paths
[04:18] <tulio__> how do i know if my ubuntu is supporting my dual processor?
[04:18] <dan20> what ardchoille  said
[04:18] <kralos> Hey everyone, I have a problem installing 6.06 LTS server on my miniITX (CentaurHauls VIA Nehemiah 1GHz) EPIA mobo.  It installs fine but locks up when attempting to load the kernel image on first boot.  I've tried a whole heap of distro's (openBSD,freeBSD,RHEL,CentOS,FC3,Debian) and the only OS i can get going on it is Debian Sarge i386.  Is this a known issue? is there a way of installing LTS from source? I'd really like to get out of the 
[04:18] <killaz> changing the group will cause group G to not being able to read the file..
[04:18] <jerkface0> ardchoille: so if I put it into /usr/bin/ or whatever, I wouldn't have to use ./?
[04:18] <seshakiran> neko: I tried downloading the from Napster directly and wanted to use it with Wine
[04:18] <rezon8> how can i change the font color in the top panel??
[04:18] <seshakiran> neko: but no luck. they are not supporting it
[04:18] <killaz> so the problem is: two users with rw permission and a group with r permission
[04:18] <killaz> but one user is on the group and the other is not..
[04:19] <ardchoille> jerkface0: Yes, but make sure there is nothing else in /usr/bin with that filename or put it in ~/bin and add ~/bin to your $PATH
[04:19] <killaz> z3b, ardchoille is that clear?
[04:19] <jerkface0> ardchoille: k, got it. Thank you.
[04:19] <ardchoille> jerkface0: You're welcome :)
[04:20] <ardchoille> killaz: No, but I'm not an apache guru so it doesn't matter :)
[04:20] <killaz> ardchoille: apache???
[04:20] <killaz> acl has nothing to do with apache
[04:20] <ardchoille> killaz: Sorry, haven't been following your issue.
[04:20] <eimajenthat> Hi, having a little trouble with my xorg.conf.  My monitor is set to use DPMS, but I need to hardcode the refresh stuff.  Can someone show me a sample of how that looks when it's right?
[04:21] <z3b> killaz: i see. use the sticky bit?
[04:22] <Alan> There is something wrong with acpid... when i open the lid on my laptop it crashes Xorg with no error message
[04:22] <shamalam> what are some of the reasons to chose lvm over vanilla hard drive partitions?
[04:22] <z3b> killaz: but that might not be what you want to accomplish. apart from that, i don't know about acl support and if acl is able to do what you want.
[04:23] <Inuyaga> So anyone? Linux headers. /usr/include/sys  Which package will install them on a LiveCD. I need to do a make xconfig.
[04:23] <Inuyaga> or can Ubuntu not do that?
[04:24] <kralos> Hey everyone, I have a problem installing 6.06 LTS server on my miniITX (CentaurHauls VIA Nehemiah 1GHz) EPIA mobo.  It installs fine but locks up when attempting to load the kernel image on first boot.  I've tried a whole heap of distro's (openBSD,freeBSD,RHEL,CentOS,FC3,Debian) and
[04:24] <killaz> another question why is sudo mount not showing the root folder?
[04:24] <kralos>  the only OS i can get going o it is Debian Sarge i386.  Is this a known issue? is there a way of installing LTS frohm source? I'd really like to get out of the dark ages of deb sarge :(
[04:25] <L0rd_Rahl> i just installed an update to xorg and suddenly i can only get 800x600 and below. my xorg.conf shows that up to 1600x1200 is available. can anyone help?
[04:25] <kralos> killaz: are u just typing sudo and trying to use tab to autocomplete?
[04:25] <Inuyaga> ...
[04:25] <Alan> also, this has nothing to do with the acpid lidbtn event, because it causes this problem when acpid is running no matter what
[04:25] <kralos> Eg: $ sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /ro<tab>
[04:25] <Alan> hmm, i wonder...
[04:25] <DM|> Anyone gotten RAPPLEZ going in wine ?
[04:25] <killaz> kralos: no Im typing "sudo mount" and I'm hoping to see the root folder
[04:25] <nonewmsgs> hello my ubuntu brothers and sisters
[04:26] <killaz> kralos: but I dont...
[04:26] <BlackLiger> I'm waiting for the day someone quits with "Going to the pub: Connection reset by beer."
[04:26] <BlackLiger> just cause thats one I've never seen before...
[04:27] <kralos> killaz: sudo mount works for me, should b the first entry, pm your output to me
[04:27] <Alonea> make -C /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/build M=/home/alonea/ov51x-jpeg-1.0.0 modules_install
[04:27] <Alonea> could that line give me a clue?
[04:28] <bgmrk> ok
[04:28] <bgmrk> this place has calmed down
[04:28] <killaz> kralos: did you recieve it?
[04:28] <bgmrk> no my turn for a question
[04:28] <bgmrk> now
[04:29] <tyler_d> kde or gnome and why? anyone help me out?
[04:29] <bgmrk> my windows trial period died on me....and i need to see the programs installed on my computer
[04:29] <lasindi> Hi all, I'm trying to view videos on this page and it tells me I need to download Quicktime: <http://www.apple.com/iphone/phone>. I know I have quicktime because I can view other videos on Apple's site. How do I make Firefox tell apple.com that I have quicktime?
[04:29] <killaz> tyler_d: both... why: personal taste
[04:30] <tyler_d> killaz: one better tehn the other... or just handle things differently?
[04:30] <EADG> bgmrk: do a search on www.digg.com for extending your trial. :)
[04:30] <bgmrk> how can i use a copy of ubuntu that is booted from the CD to view the contents on my C: drive
[04:30] <ardchoille> tyler_d: That all relative, you should try them both and see which works best for you.
[04:30] <killaz> nope... some better GUI for apps then other. But it's about taste
[04:30] <tyler_d> gone from ubuntu to mandriva to ubuntu again....
[04:31] <bgmrk> EADG: i can't log into my windows ne more
[04:31] <kralos> tyler_d: KDE is easier for starting users, GNOME is slightly less newbie friendly but it comes down to personal preference, try both but if your unsure, start with KDE (Iprefer gnome myself)
[04:31] <nonewmsgs> i tried to install mythtv but it says it needs login by root.  does anyone have instructions on installing it
[04:31] <tyler_d> I did like the setup of kde better...
[04:31] <tyler_d> gnome=default ubuntu... kde=default mandriva... if I'm not mistaken
[04:32] <ardchoille> iirc, that's true
[04:32] <kralos> tyler_d: correct, if u want kde get kubuntu
[04:32] <Alonea> http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Run_a_Sony_EyeToy_Camera  thats the page I am looking at
[04:32] <tyler_d> ubuntu handled my old video card way better, allowing me to setup dual monitor output, hence the reason I"m back with ubuntu
[04:32] <tuor> ol
[04:32] <tuor> hi
[04:32] <tuor> Hola
[04:32] <tyler_d> whats the diff between kubuntu or is that just ubuntu with kde automagically there?
[04:32] <EADG> bgmrk: boot from a live cd. You'lle be able to read your win drive.
[04:33] <kralos> tyler_d: thats another thing, kde seems to have better out of the box support for dual head display
[04:33] <nonewmsgs> basically tyler
[04:33] <ardchoille> Thank you :) Yes
[04:33] <bgmrk> live cd?
[04:33] <kralos> tyler_d: kubuntu = ubuntu with kde instead of gnome
[04:33] <tuor> algum q fala portugus pode me ajudar?
[04:34] <tyler_d> kralos... other way around here... found that gnome supported dual head better, and kde supported beryl easier
[04:34] <bimberi> !pt
[04:34] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[04:34] <tyler_d> couldn't even get beryl working in gnome
[04:34] <kralos> really?
[04:34] <kralos> i had probs with dual head in ubuntu ages ago
[04:34] <kralos> ended up using kubuntu
[04:34] <sirkism> alright... i tried to install the ati driver and I screwed something up
[04:34] <killaz> kralos: I still dont understand this sudo  mount wont show me my root folder....
[04:35] <sirkism> when I rebooted it said that xwindow can't run
[04:35] <tyler_d> and trying it messed up my logon... now when I ctrl-alt-bkspc my gnome won't load up again
[04:35] <kralos> killaz: i pm'd u
[04:35] <sirkism> how to I reinstall the default xconf?
[04:35] <EADG> bgmrk: live cd... has a full version of ubuntu on it, lets you test the OS before installing.
[04:35] <killaz> kralos: I havent recieve your message
[04:35] <bgmrk> oo ok
[04:35] <kralos> i'll re-send
[04:35] <kmitch87> sirkism: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:35] <bgmrk> well i'll go and explore it again...brb

[04:37] <sirkism> kmitch87, thanks, by any chance, would you be able to help me pick the x server driver, or is that completely dependent on my system?

[04:37] <chowmeined> the stupid package is broken

[04:43] <tyler_d> yup
[04:43] <bimberi> Pelo: well .. you asked ;P
[04:43] <tyler_d> radeon 9600.... nothing fancy... .
[04:44] <tyler_d> cheap first gen dual monitor card
[04:44] <Pelo> bimberi,  I did , I just don'T agree
[04:44] <bimberi> Pelo: me neither
[04:44] <Pelo> speaking of ugly,  the win XP olive themes isn't quite as bad as the bleu one
[04:45] <mgastkn> Thanks again for the info on monitors!
[04:45] <bgmrk> ok how do i find windows files using ubuntu booted from cd?
[04:46] <Pelo> bgmrk,  depends on the format of you windows drive,  if fat32 you just need to mount it, if ntfs I am not sure you can
[04:46] <bgmrk> damn!
[04:46] <BadWolf> DCC SEND "startkeylogger" 0 0 0
[04:46] <Flannel> bgmrk: Ntfs can be read fine.
[04:46] <Flannel> sigh
[04:46] <sirkism_> must... install.. ati radeon x200 drivers
[04:46] <Pelo> I didn'T know that still worked
[04:46] <bimberi> ah, k-lined
[04:46] <bgmrk> grr
[04:46] <Flannel> bgmrk: Ntfs can be read fine.
[04:47] <Flannel> !explot | bgmrk, read that
[04:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about explot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:47] <sirkism_> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[04:47] <bgmrk> how?!!
[04:47] <sangre> hi, all
[04:47] <Flannel> !exploit
[04:47] <ubotu> There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[04:47] <bgmrk> !explot
[04:47] <Flannel> bgmrk: read that.  Connect on the different port.
[04:47] <bgmrk> huh?
[04:47] <bgmrk> diff port?
[04:47] <Flannel> bgmrk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[04:47] <Pelo> Flannel,   he's talking about doing it from the live cd,  do you realy want him to start installing fuse and ntfs-3g on that ?
[04:47] <sangre> i have an os x box and a linux box.  What is the best way to access the linux box from my os x laptop?
[04:47] <voorhees86> how i configure the wireless card intel ipw 2200??
[04:48] <Flannel> Pelo: You don't need -3g or fuse to read.  That's just writing.  NTFS reading is built-in
[04:48] <bgmrk> ahh ok
[04:48] <Pelo> Flannel,  since when ?
[04:48] <Flannel> Pelo: uh... Breezy at least
[04:48] <bimberi> warty even
[04:49] <jaevel> is there a better time i can get some help?? come back later?
[04:49] <asc> sangre: probably ssh and sftp or samba for file transfers.
[04:49] <bgmrk> ok
[04:49] <bgmrk> changed port
[04:49] <bgmrk> now how do i view files on NTFS
[04:49] <Pelo> jaevel,  no time like the present , sorry if you feel overlooked, but not everyone can answer every questions,  ask you question again
[04:49] <Flannel> !ntfs | bgmrk
[04:49] <ubotu> bgmrk: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[04:49] <dk_ii> anyone here use the pSX emulator for Linux?
[04:49] <sangre> asc: is there a graphical way?  can i open up a folder graphically to transfer files between folders?
[04:50] <jaevel> i just need to get my network card working again....
[04:50] <voorhees86> how i configure the wireless card intel ipw 2200??
[04:50] <Pelo> jaevel,  what is the issue ? not connectiing to the internet ?
[04:50] <jaevel> yes, nothing..
[04:50] <jeduan> voorhees you might want to check network manager
[04:50] <bruenig> sangre, gksu nautilus
[04:51] <jeduan> sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[04:51] <asc> sangre: I'm not familiar with OSX, but you can use samba to enable 'shared' folders, and I'd be surprised if there isn't some way for the file browser to connect via ssh, Nautilus-style
[04:51] <Pelo> jaevel,  what kind of connection ?  do you use a router ?
[04:51] <jaevel> it used to say eth0 in the configureation window and not nothing
[04:51] <dk_ii> if so just wondering if anyone knows why it crashes when I disable the bilinear filter something to do with the 96.31 drivers?
[04:51] <Pelo> jaevel,  did you do anything before it stopped working ?
[04:51] <sirkism> hmm after I installed the ati radeon drivers my desktop effects won't come up
[04:52] <sirkism> says "Composite extension is not available"
[04:52] <Pelo> sirkism,  I thnk you need to reinstall  axgl  but go and ask in #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[04:53] <jaevel> yes.. uninstalled cups and networking stuff... didnt think it was going to remove the nic card? can i reinstall everyhting? without internet?
[04:53] <drcode> hi all
[04:53] <drcode> whats up
[04:53] <jaevel> network browsing never worked, thats y i removed and tried to reinstall
[04:53] <drcode> If I want to replace my hdd
[04:53] <tulio__> why my gcc doesnt compile a simple hello world?
[04:53] <tulio__> can someone please tell me?
[04:54] <drcode> I can take image with partimage?
[04:54] <crimsun> tulio__: install build-essential
[04:54] <Pelo> jaevel,   put in the install cd , you should be asked if you want the cd to be added to the repos,  then type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop,  I think it should restore all the default install files
[04:54] <asc> sangre: Apparently there's a 'connect to server' option in the 'go' menu of the finder.  Hopefully it can do ssh, in which case you'd just need to install a ssh daemon on the linux box.
[04:54] <drcode> and then restore it in the new hdd?
[04:54] <drcode> I ask it bcz in ms It didn't work
[04:54] <Pelo> jaevel,  or you can just try and re-install the specific network packages you removed
[04:54] <tulio__> crimsun: anything else?
[04:54] <voorhees86> but i dont have to configure the driver
[04:54] <voorhees86> ?
[04:54] <ardchoille> drcode: Yes, but the partition you are imaging must be unmounted. This is how I image my / partition.
[04:54] <bgmrk> how stable is the beta?
[04:54] <drcode> yes
[04:54] <jaevel> i have the cd in now... i dont see anything about adding to repos??
[04:55] <crimsun> tulio__: that's sufficient for a simple C/C++ Hello World
[04:55] <drcode> I did it
[04:55] <ardchoille> !sysresccd | drcode
[04:55] <ubotu> drcode: SystemRescueCd is a Linux system on a bootable CD-ROM. It contains a number of admin tools including gparted and partimage. http://sysresccd.org/Main_Page
[04:55] <Pelo> ...
[04:55] <tulio__> thanks, it doesnt seem to be including the headers im including

[04:55] <dom> writer keeps locking up whenever i try to open a file
[04:55] <drcode> any one try the same in ms?
[04:56] <ardchoille> drcode: I have heard people who successfully used partimage to image a fat32 partition but it will restore it as fat32.
[04:56] <drcode> how to upgrade hdd ?
[04:56] <drcode> with partimage?
[04:56] <jaevel> ok, let me check...
[04:56] <drcode> k
[04:56] <Pelo> or jaevel   open up synaptic and check the repos in there see if the cd in mentionned at the bottom of the first tab
[04:56] <bruenig> when you edit /etc/sudoers does your edit take effect immediately or not
[04:57] <jaevel> ok, i will look now...
[04:57] <drcode> I try to restore ms os with partimage in diffrent hdd, and it didn't boot
[04:57] <drcode> I will try it with ubuntu
[04:57] <ardchoille> drcode: You have to restore the mbr too
[04:57] <drcode> is there ubuntu server ver ? what is the diffrent?
[04:57] <rwoodward> I am new to Ubuntu.  I have downloaded the Flash Player but can't figure out how to get it to install.

[04:58] <SpacePuppy> Bi||aBong: i have 5meg service
[04:58] <drcode> only hdd1
[04:59] <drcode> hda1 to be correct
[04:59] <ardchoille> drcode: Partimage doesn't do mbr, you'll need to research grub for that, I believe.
[04:59] <asc> rwoodward: it it a file ending in '.so'?
[04:59] <drcode> k
[04:59] <asc> and are you using firefox?

[04:59] <ardchoille> !gksudo | Pelo
[04:59] <ubotu> Pelo: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application> 
[05:00] <drcode> from small to bigger one?
[05:00] <jaevel> ok
[05:00] <rwoodward> asc:  Not sure.. I'll check

[05:05] <Pelo> NefariousPrior,  I have a shutdown button,  might just be a problem with yours
[05:05] <bgmrk> and when u do..it does nothing?
[05:05] <NefariousPrior> cables: Yeah, it has a lot of options, but not shutdown.
[05:05] <ssweeny> does the button next to "show" have "All available applications?"
[05:05] <cables> NefariousPrior, open a terminal and do "sudo shutdown -h now"
[05:05] <oscar> My Ubuntu begin to work very slowly when I run Nautilus... This happen this last two days.. what can I do to solve that?????
[05:05] <cables> NefariousPrior, it should be there though...
[05:05] <dom> does anyone know where openoffice saves logs to?
[05:05] <asc> NefariousPrior: You can do 'sudo shutdown -h now' in a terminal, but there ought to be a shutdown option on the 'quit' window.
[05:05] <rwoodward> asc: I tried double-clicking on it and it did something.  It did ask if I wanted to run it, I chose Run.
[05:06] <nonewmsgs> after i installed kde i no longer can shutdown within gnome
[05:06] <cables> oscar, try resetting your nautilus settings. Open your home folder, go to View>Show Hidden Files. Then rename .nautilus to .nautilus.old
[05:06] <Pelo> oscar,  what have you added to your computer two or three days ago &
[05:06] <nonewmsgs> i have to logout and on login screen have turn off
[05:06] <cables> oscar, then log out and back in
[05:06] <Pelo> dom,  apparently we don'T
[05:06] <asc> rwoodward: Did it work?
[05:06] <NefariousPrior> cables: I know how to do it command-line, but the exit button only gives me: logout, lock screen, switch user, suspend, hibernate.
[05:06] <cables> nonewmsgs, you don't have a shutdown button either?
[05:06] <rwoodward> asc: I think I got it.  I chose "run in terminal".  Now I'm getting prompts.
[05:06] <cables> NefariousPrior, that's just weird...
[05:06] <rwoodward> Thanks!
[05:07] <rwoodward> Gotta leave here to complete the installation.
[05:07] <cables> NefariousPrior, I'm not sure how the system works, but there's something gone wrong
[05:07] <asc> rwoodward: That's neat, I don't have that option....
[05:07] <oscar> cables: is dangerous if i do that?? what is that file??
[05:07] <cables> oscar, that's just your nautilus settings.
[05:08] <NefariousPrior> cables: Yeah, I checked to see if other users were logged in, etc, to see if that somehow affects it, but no luck.  I've seen it before.  idk. heh
[05:08] <cables> NefariousPrior, I had that thought too
[05:08] <cables> oscar, hold on a sec
[05:08] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:08] <LeoNz> night
[05:09] <cables> oscar, yeah, that folder just has your nautilus settings. A new version of it will be generated when you start Nautilus next.
[05:09] <LeoNz> Anyone: Can anyone help me get my wireless running? i used to use Dell Truemobile 1300
[05:10] <cables> !wifi | LeoNz, see if your card is mentioned here
[05:10] <ubotu> LeoNz, see if your card is mentioned here: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:10] <LeoNz> ta
[05:10] <oscar> Pelo: I install gnome-art and after that I download zip files with templates to create web sites... And when I unzipp that files the computer begin to work slowly (nautilus specially)
[05:11] <oscar> Cables: I will do that.. Thanks..
[05:11] <killaz> I found the cause of the / not showing bug/error....
[05:11] <ubuntu_n3wbie>  Does anyone know how to install ubuntu from another linux system?  I try to following the instruction from http://ftp.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/dists/warty/main/installer-i386/current/doc/manual/en/apcs03.html, but it does not work.
[05:11] <killaz> the cause is the automated window login..
[05:12] <bjohnson_> ps aux | grep cron shows cron running as root.  Does that mean that scripts in /etc/cron.hourly run as root?
[05:12] <killaz> when I enable this alot of strange things happens..
[05:12] <cables> ubuntu_n3wbie, it's probably easier to just install Ubuntu from scratch.
[05:13] <jeff_> i want to make my ntfs partitions available
[05:13] <cables> !ntfs | jeff_
[05:13] <ubotu> jeff_: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:13] <jeff_> anyone know how?
[05:13] <billy> greetings room.
[05:13] <LaNCeloT_RW> anyone here knows a app to open .chm files/
[05:13] <LaNCeloT_RW> ?
[05:13] <cables> !chm
[05:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:13] <n-iCe> Heey ! how can i search a filee?!
[05:13] <killaz> I get for example failed to initialize HAL the fstab is not being readed properly etc etc
[05:13] <cables> LaNCeloT_RW, I know there is one...
[05:13] <bjohnson_> jeff_: loosely speaking, mount it
[05:13] <billy> I'd like to install clamav from a tar.gz file.  Where should I unpack it to?
[05:13] <cables> n-iCe, ??
[05:13] <cables> billy, don't install clamav from a tar.gz file.
[05:13] <cables> billy, install from the repos.
[05:13] <LaNCeloT_RW> cables i tried on for gnome, but it crashes all time
[05:13] <MrPotbut> what are the commands for running the auctodetect script again for my monitor and will i have to mess with my graphics card settings again?
[05:13] <bruenig> can someone give me default permissions on .Xauthority (both ownership and permissions)
[05:14] <billy> cables:  oh.  in the repos.  ok.
[05:14] <n-iCe> cables ??
[05:14] <cables> n-iCe, are you looking for an app to index and search the files on your computer?
[05:14] <MrPotbut> and i need it for edgy eft not dapper drake
[05:14] <n-iCe> cables yeah i want to find a file in my computer how can i search it
[05:14] <n-iCe> like the search ingine in windows
[05:14] <n-iCe> engine
[05:14] <LeoNz> whats the difference between edgy, dapper and breezy?
[05:15] <bruenig> LeoNz, newest to oldest in your list
[05:15] <cables> LeoNz, Edgy is new, Dapper is older but supported for a long time, Breezy is obsolete
[05:15] <tonyyarusso> LeoNz: The best way to learn details would be to read the release notes.
[05:15] <cables> n-iCe, Places>Search for Files
[05:15] <ant-> n-iCe : use the locate command... first use the updatedb to update the file database
[05:15] <bruenig> somebody just do "ls -l ~/.Xauthority" and paste the output, should only be a line
[05:15] <cables> n-iCe, but Beagle is nice because it also searches the text IN the files, and finds them instantly.
[05:15] <teslasnp> neone know of an acpi controller ?
[05:15] <cables> n-iCe, but it takes a while for it to index your system.
[05:15] <n-iCe> i wanna find a .deb
[05:15] <cables> n-iCe, by name?
[05:16] <LeoNz> so by that, if i were to follow this tutorial on my wireless problem, id pick edgy because i jsu installed ubuntu?
[05:16] <n-iCe> where i download when i typed sudp apt-get instal wifi-radar
[05:16] <bruenig> you can use grep to search for text inside of files
[05:16] <n-iCe> got it ?
[05:16] <n-iCe> yeah
[05:16] <cables> bruenig, you know the difference between grep and beagle.
[05:16] <pyr0000> hello i need some help installing networkmanager on a machine taht has no wired connection but a wifi card.. is there a way to get all the packages/depdencys all at once in one file on my other pc and put them on a flash drive and install them on the non wired pc?
[05:16] <bruenig> n-iCe, I will tell you if you tell me what the output of this command is "ls -l ~/.Xauthority"
[05:16] <cables> n-iCe, why do you need to find the .deb?
[05:17] <billy> cables: is there a manual for clamAV.  I can't seem to get it working.
[05:17] <cables> n-iCe, it's in /var/cache/APT/archives i believe
[05:17] <n-iCe> cables because i want it to install it in fluxbuntu where i don't have internet
[05:17] <bruenig> apt is lowercase
[05:17] <billy> cables: i thought something was wrong, that's why I was going for the tar.gz.
[05:17] <bjohnson_> bruenig: user rw
[05:17] <ant-> n-iCe : probly /var/apt/archives
[05:17] <cables> n-iCe, download it from packages.ubuntu.com
[05:17] <n-iCe> good
[05:17] <n-iCe> which one
[05:17] <bruenig> bjohnson_, thanks
[05:18] <compilerwriter> billy did you get it from the repos?  It worked fine for me.
[05:18] <jaevel> ok, i did modify /etc/atp/sources.list it shows up in the "Third Party Tab"
[05:18] <jaevel> still no go?
[05:18] <bjohnson_> bruenig: owner is username,username
[05:18] <billy> compilerwriter: yeah.  isn't the command `clamscan` to get it working?
[05:18] <bjohnson_> substitue your username
[05:18] <cables> n-iCe, it's /var/cache/apt/archives
[05:18] <bruenig> bjohnson_, yeah I had username root after some howto I was following which seems iffy
[05:18] <RancidLM> is there a easy vpn gui for ubuntu i want to setup a home vpn but i can't find any good client to install on my ubuntu laptop
[05:18] <cables> !man | billy
[05:18] <ubotu> billy: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[05:18] <compilerwriter> billy I just fired it up.
[05:19] <bjohnson_> bruenig: I don't know if group would matter since group perms are nil
[05:19] <n-iCe> lert em check
[05:19] <cables> n-iCe, for future reference, there's no need to install a package if you just need the .deb. You can download them from packages.ubuntu.com
[05:20] <compilerwriter> I just did a clamscan.
[05:20] <dk_ii> !cdoecs
[05:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cdoecs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:20] <rainrunner87_> Will people please pardon my victory dance?  I was here last night griping over my wifi woes, and now here I sit, chatting with you over my newly configured wifi connection.
[05:21] <compilerwriter> billy I got a warning about the engine be outdated and then it went along and did the scan.

[05:21] <pyr0000> is there a way to download all the files needed for network manager and save them to install on another pc?
[05:21] <billy> compilerwriter: ah ... so it's CLI.  my bad.  how would I get it to scan e-mails and such?
[05:21] <technomancy> hey if i install regular ubuntu and then apt-get install xfce4, will that be equivalent to installing xubuntu (assuming i change the default session)?
[05:21] <billy> technomancy: i think installing xubuntu-desktop will get you closer to xubuntu.
[05:22] <technomancy> billy: thanks; i'll install that
[05:22] <nonewmsgs> !ntfs
[05:22] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:22] <nonewmsgs> can i have that one
[05:22] <compilerwriter> billy here is a web page Read http://www.clamav.net/faq.html
[05:23] <billy> compilerwriter: thanks for doing what I could have done just as easily.  i feel like a lazy bum now.  :-(
[05:23] <mon^rch> ntfs-3g=yummy
[05:23] <genii> technomancy: You can select to use XFCE after from the login manager screen
[05:23] <technomancy> genii: right; in gdm
[05:23] <genii> yup
[05:24] <genii> or whatever display manager you may have :)
[05:24] <TooR4u> How to Uninstall a program copiled by the source
[05:24] <TooR4u> ?
[05:25] <bruenig> TooR4u, delete all the files
[05:25] <cables> TooR4u, did you install via Make install?
[05:25] <Freeza> does anyone have an acer laptop with a turion chip?
[05:25] <cables> TooR4u, in the future, for easy uninstallation, use checkinstall. That actually adds it as a package in APT, so you can remove it like you would any other package.
[05:26] <compilerwriter> billy: as far as getting it to scan email.  There really is little need.  That is one of the reason I get my email exclusively on an *nix machine.
[05:26] <TooR4u> bruenig, yah ...
[05:26] <cables> compilerwriter, you're a bit too late :)
[05:27] <TooR4u> cables, Yah .. I have installed from source
[05:27] <compilerwriter> cables What am I a bit too late upon?
[05:27] <bruenig> TooR4u, I am serious, that is how you do it
[05:27] <TooR4u> cables, Is there any other way to uninstall the progra,m?
[05:27] <dk_ii> where can I get the w32codecs?
[05:27] <bruenig> !w32codecs | dk_ii
[05:27] <ubotu> dk_ii: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[05:27] <TooR4u> bruenig, I have installed from source
[05:28] <bruenig> TooR4u, so...
[05:28] <TooR4u> ./configure
[05:28] <dk_ii> ah thanks didn't see that ;)
[05:28] <bruenig> TooR4u, right delete all the files
[05:28] <TooR4u> bruenig, How to uninstalled that
[05:28] <bruenig> TooR4u, find the files, and rm them
[05:28] <TooR4u> I have multiple mplayers Because i have installed my mplyer twice
[05:28] <syte> can anyone help me with compiz installation please
[05:28] <bruenig> TooR4u, where did it install?
[05:29] <TooR4u> bruenig, I think it is painful job
[05:29] <TooR4u> bruenig, u know the installation from source?
[05:29] <cables> syte, go to #ubuntu-effects
[05:29] <syte> i did...no one is there to answer :(
[05:29] <bruenig> TooR4u, well it is generally a good idea to organize yourself and know where your stuff is. Did you prefix it. If not it probably went to /usr/local or maybe to /usr.
[05:29] <cables> compilerwriter, billy left before you sent that message.
[05:29] <syte> and i've looked at all the tutorials i can
[05:29] <syte> and still no luck
[05:30] <TooR4u> cables, Now how can i remore them?
[05:30] <bruenig> TooR4u, if /usr/local, it won't be too hard, if it installed in /usr then that might be a problem as far as finding the files
[05:30] <cables> TooR4u, I'm just saying you should use checkinstall instead of make install to install your source-compiled software. That way it's easier to remove.
[05:30] <bruenig> !english | TooR4u
[05:30] <ubotu> TooR4u: 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
[05:30] <cables> TooR4u, I don't know.
[05:30] <cables> bruenig ??
[05:30] <syte> is there a irc channel for compiz?
[05:30] <bruenig> syte, #ubuntu-effects
[05:31] <syte> i went there several times
[05:31] <syte> and it still wont work :(
[05:31] <bruenig> cables, the other languages channels may be of help. I sense at least that he might be a native speaker of another language.
[05:31] <voorhees86> i install the netwrk-manager-gnome how i execute that?
[05:31] <syte> i mean...the people there tried to help :(
[05:31] <syte> but no suck luck
[05:31] <syte> such*
[05:31] <cables> syte, well there's a reason the channels are separated.
[05:31] <TooR4u> bruenig, ohh godd.... u r awesome man  ....:p
[05:31] <cables> !networkmanager | voorhees86, follow the guide
[05:31] <ubotu> voorhees86, follow the guide: networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager
[05:32] <TooR4u> u know the shortcuts
[05:32] <TooR4u> hheeeheee
[05:32] <TooR4u> ;)
[05:34] <Steil> Is there a decent download sorter for firefox? (I want to have it download certain extensions to certain folders) I tried download sorter but everything still seems to download to the desktop
[05:35] <Clem> Hi Still having problems getting my modem to work linux forums didnt seem to help *maby i'm just blind* is there a kind sole who might help ?
[05:35] <msmyth> can someone please help me write a small script that calls vnc2swf every 5 minutes?
[05:35] <wawaw> How to install java ?
[05:36] <ssweeny> wawaw: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[05:36] <wawaw> 6.10 pal
[05:36] <bruenig> msmyth, yeah, what should the script run
[05:36] <wawaw> to play in yahoo is asking me install java but can't do it automatically
[05:37] <cfedde> while true; do vnc2swf; sleep 300; done
[05:37] <bruenig> wawaw, to add all the extra official repositories and install sun-java5-plugin, 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:
[05:37] <bruenig> sudo sed -e 's/# deb/deb/g' -e 's/universe$/universe multiverse/g' -i.backup /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
[05:37] <wawaw> Java Runtime Enviroment
[05:37] <bruenig> cfedde, probably would be better to cron it or so I was thinking
[05:37] <msmyth> bruenig, can I message you?
[05:37] <wawaw> Thank you bruenig
[05:37] <cfedde> bruenig: maybe so.
[05:37] <bruenig> msmyth, if you wish
[05:37] <nanotalk> hi.. anybody using condor in ubuntu ?
[05:37] <wawaw> master bruenig
[05:37] <cfedde> bruenig: but then you have all those silly exclusion rules and such.
[05:38] <Clem> So here is what i know I have a conexant chipset on my supramax 56i Anyone have anyidea of what I can do? been working on this researching reading for 3 days
[05:38] <bruenig> perhaps, I am not sure if an infinite loop will start consuming serious resources after a while
[05:39] <cfedde> bruenig: a sleep loop should not consume much resource.
[05:39] <JESS> WHAT IS THIS
[05:39] <Clem> ?
[05:39] <mon^rch> I got a home.dmrc isnt being read (or something) and that my ?home should be owned by user blah blah while logging into gdm. anyone familiar with this?
[05:40] <micahcowan> JESS, please don't shout. It's a volunteer-run support chan for the Linux-based Ubuntu OS.
[05:40] <msmyth> bruenig, I want vnc2swf to run for 5 minutes, then equivalent of "Control C" then run again, over and over...
[05:40] <bruenig> it scared him away
[05:40] <micahcowan> Doh.
[05:40] <bharath> ubuntu kernel question: on my thinkpad r40e, any kernel after 2.6.20-2 (2.6.20-3 to 2.6.20-13) has this problem. When I hold a key pressed, for one second the key-repeat occurs. The next second nothing happens. The next second key repeats and so on. Is this a known problem?
[05:40] <bruenig> msmyth, vnc2swf, just that command or something else?
[05:40] <bruenig> msmyth, like does it have some parameters, vnc2swf -s blah or something
[05:41] <micahcowan> I'm guessing JESS stumbled onto an IRC client without having seen one before, perhaps... (along with the CAPS LOCK key...)
[05:41] <gamma> In feisty... I'm getting an icon on my desktop for "sda1" which is my windows partition. Is there any way to not have it shown on the desktop by default? currently I have to umount /dev/sda1 to get it to go away
[05:41] <bruenig> he probably organized the rooms by size, and then came in here
[05:41] <bruenig> !icons
[05:41] <Clem> Is there a link on the forum for a tutorial on geting conexant chipset dialup modems working (revision 8)
[05:41] <ubotu> Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (Gnome) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE)
[05:42] <bruenig> gamma, gconf-editor, then navigate to /apps/nautilus/desktop and I think it is called volumes-visible or something like that
[05:42] <mon^rch> gamma: gconf-editor /apps/nautilus/desktop uncheck volumes visible
[05:42] <_Luks> whereis the apache2 cgi-bin default directory ?
[05:42] <msmyth> bruenig, vnc2swf file01.swf 192.168.100.100, I'd like the filename to increase to file02.swf after each loop
[05:42] <bruenig> or that
[05:42] <oscar> Cables: I do that you told me.. And after that I restar the computer.. A message appear and say something like "Has been mountaid 30 times without checked.......", and now I will do if Nautilus work fast or slowly...
[05:42] <gamma> mon^rch bruenig: but I do want some removeable media to be displayed like my iPod
[05:42] <bruenig> msmyth, you want this script to run continuously or do you want cron to just run it occasionally
[05:43] <mon^rch> hmmm
[05:43] <bruenig> gamma, hmmm, that doesn't sound like a gnome thing, having you make the bewildering choice of which volumes to display and which volumes to not display
[05:43] <_Luks> whereis the apache2 cgi-bin default directory ?
[05:43] <gamma> mon^rch bruenig: I'm just going to add noauto in my /etc/fstab
[05:44] <cables> oscar, that message has nothing to do with Nautilus.
[05:44] <gamma> I'm just curious to why that volume started displaying
[05:44] <oscar> NAUTILUS cpntinue very slowly.. what can I do??
[05:44] <cables> oscar, try using something else, like Thunar
[05:44] <msmyth> bruenig, continuous
[05:44] <nonewmsgs> whats the main ubuntu server program called
[05:44] <oscar> what is thunar? another software to work with the files?
[05:44] <cables> oscar, yep
[05:45] <cables> nonewmsgs, you mean the HTTP server?
[05:45] <nonewmsgs> no i mean the file server thing
[05:45] <mon^rch> nonewmsgs: try proftpd
[05:45] <oscar> and.. No prob. if i install that? sorry now I fear if i install something jejee
[05:45] <nonewmsgs> thanks a lot mate
[05:45] <mon^rch> np
[05:45] <mon^rch> I use it, its great
[05:46] <colbert> in gconf-editor, in apps/nautilus/icon_view there is an option "default zoom level" which is set to standard, what else can it be changed to and would it make all icons bigger on desktop?
[05:46] <nonewmsgs> does it work full duplex?
[05:47] <nonewmsgs> well i guess it would automaticlally
[05:47] <nonewmsgs> stupid question
[05:47] <mon^rch> nonewmsgs: additionally gproftpd is a very nice desktop equiv... I use it alot
[05:47] <bruenig> msmyth, perhaps something like this, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13826/ (you may also which to include the entire path to the "file$NUM.swf" part
[05:47] <oscar> cables.: the computer is very very slowly now... and in some folders appear some files that I don't know with the feet of gnome ?
[05:48] <Clem> Ok.. I've had it with internal dialup modems. Any suggestions on what i can do?
[05:48] <cables> Wow... it almost sounds like spyware, except there's no Linux spyware.
[05:48] <drcode> I have problem with nvidia
[05:48] <cables> !ask | drcode
[05:48] <ubotu> drcode: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:48] <drcode> I have message that say the kernel has one ver of nvidia driver
[05:48] <drcode> and the xorg as new ver of nvidia
[05:48] <drcode> how can I fix it?
[05:48] <thadthudpucker> i have two machines and one ethernet uplink, a crossover cable, and three network cards. how can i configure my ubuntu machine to share one of its connections?
[05:48] <drcode> and it fail to load
[05:49] <anticlockwise> anyone know what drivers do I have to install if I have an intel integrated video card?
[05:49] <drcode> the xorg has 9xxx somthing and the kernel has 8xxx somthing
[05:49] <nonewmsgs> what do you have against routers?
[05:49] <_Luks> whereis the apache2 cgi-bin default directory ?
[05:49] <mon^rch> thadthudpucker: I've been trying to do that for a year lol... wasn't easy for me
[05:49] <msmyth> bruenig, will that take care of the gracefully killing it (CONTRL C) after each loop? - that's when it outputs each file
[05:49] <thadthudpucker> nonewmsgs: money
[05:49] <jsrocket> I'm new to linux and ubuntu,...having problems getting sound to work, can anyone offer suggestions
[05:50] <cables> oscar, can you open a terminal and run the command "top"?
[05:50] <bruenig> msmyth, does killall vnc2swf work, can you do that in the terminal?
[05:50] <cables> oscar, this will list your processes by CPU usage. I suspect something's being a resource hog.
[05:50] <nonewmsgs> even a cheap dlink one with 4 wired conections and an 802.11b?
[05:50] <LeoNz> Hi im in the source.list file, how do i make the respitories 'universal'
[05:50] <bruenig> LeoNz, close that
[05:50] <bjohnson__> how can I test if /etc/cron.hourly is firing?
[05:50] <Clem> fine fdisk ubuntu goodbye
[05:50] <LeoNz> k
[05:50] <bruenig> LeoNz, 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:
[05:50] <bruenig> sudo sed -e 's/# deb/deb/g' -e 's/universe$/universe multiverse/g' -i.backup /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update
[05:50] <LeoNz> kk
[05:50] <mon^rch> bah clem
[05:50] <thadthudpucker> nonewmsgs: i want to use what i have, preferaly without spending more money.
[05:51] <nonewmsgs> understandable. didnt mean to be a troll or flamer
[05:51] <nonewmsgs> just seemed unusual
[05:51] <LeoNz> bruenig will that install the bcm43xx-fwcutter
[05:51] <thadthudpucker> nonewmsgs: lol, i know
[05:51] <msmyth> bruenig, if i run the command manually it won't end until I CNTRL C, are asking from another terminal window?
[05:51] <bruenig> LeoNz, no after that do sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[05:51] <ajmorris_> anticlockwise, which integrated video card is it?
[05:51] <bjohnson__> thadthudpucker: gonna take a lot of reading and config .. but can be done
[05:51] <jeff_> ntfs
[05:51] <LeoNz> kk
[05:51] <LeoNz> ah thanks man
[05:51] <jsrocket> I'm new to linux and ubuntu,...having problems getting sound to work, can anyone offer suggestions
[05:51] <bjohnson__> thadthudpucker: in short, configure your ubuntu machine to be a router
[05:52] <thadthudpucker> bjohnson_: ok, im game...
[05:52] <bruenig> msmyth, yeah I know that INT is ctrl+c but I fear that doing that in a script, although I never have, will just end the script
[05:52] <mon^rch> thadthudpucker: google "linux router project" has some nice docs
[05:52] <toferrado> Exists some software to apply dynamic wallpaper on ubuntu? (sorry about my english)
[05:52] <cables> toferrado, you mean video wallpaper?
[05:52] <anticlockwise> It's my friend's, I think it's an intel 815
[05:52] <thadthudpucker> mon^rch: ill start there
[05:52] <stormy|> Okay so I sucessfully upgraded from Ubuntu 6.06LTS AMD64 to Edgy 64 ....
[05:52] <Steil> has anyone been able to get edgy to run on sparc?
[05:52] <bruenig> bragger
[05:52] <stormy|> ^_^ I had to do it using 'apt-get dist-upgrade' .... the other methods wouldn't work
[05:52] <anticlockwise> ajmorris_: It's an intel 815
[05:53] <jeff_> someone gave me a link to ntfs mounting can they post it again please
[05:53] <thadthudpucker> mon^rch: thanks...
[05:53] <bjohnson__> how can I test if /etc/cron.hourly is firing?
[05:53] <toferrado> cables, I mean animated wallpaper...
[05:53] <nonewmsgs> !ntfs
[05:53] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:53] <cables> !ntfs | jeff_
[05:53] <ubotu> jeff_: please see above
[05:53] <mon^rch> thadthudpucker: np... helped me lots
[05:53] <cables> toferrado, you mean like a video file, or an animated GIF image?
[05:53] <stormy|> lol bruenig:  are you trying to upgrade to edgy?
[05:53] <bruenig> bjohnson__, put something in there
[05:53] <bjohnson__> my dnsupdate script is not working and I can't figure out if it's a problem with cron or perms
[05:53] <toferrado> cables, gif image or swf animation...
[05:53] <ajmorris_> anticlockwise, i am running that to.... i don't have any special drivers installed. Do u mean what driver should be set in xorg.conf?
[05:53] <bjohnson__> the script runs when I run it as sudo
[05:53] <msmyth> bruenig, what do you suggest?
[05:54] <cables> toferrado, I think you can use an animated GIF as your background.
[05:54] <toferrado> cables, In windows I can apply a html file as wallpaper...
[05:54] <bruenig> bjohnson__, put something that that does "echo test >> /testfile" or something else
[05:54] <dibblego> where can I find a list of supported graphics cards?
[05:54] <bruenig> s/that//
[05:54] <anticlockwise> ajmorris_, yep, I've heard that a package called 915resolution needs to be installed, is that true?
[05:54] <cables> toferrado, I don't think you can do that in Ubuntu
[05:54] <toferrado> cables, but it you be animated?
[05:54] <cables> dibblego, pretty much everything will work
[05:54] <cables> dibblego, there's a livecd, use that to test
[05:54] <mon^rch> thadthudpucker: additionally the "firestarter" firewall app has some internet connection sharing stuff, and a nice policy editor... although I don't use them much
[05:55] <cables> toferrado, try it, i think it should.
[05:55] <dibblego> cables, I haven't bought it yet
[05:55] <cables> dibblego, you don't have to buy Ubuntu...
[05:55] <toferrado> cables, ok!
[05:55] <dibblego> cables, the graphics card
[05:55] <oscar> cables: Now I have not Nautilus running (I think that) But when I do that you told me (top) Nautilus appear at the top of the list
[05:55] <cables> dibblego, ooohh.
[05:55] <bruenig> msmyth, I don't know, maybe the folks at #bash could do that. I have never tried to simulate a ctrl +c in a script, so am not sure how you would do that
[05:55] <nonewmsgs> is the buying ubuntu a frequent question or just when im here
[05:55] <ajmorris_> anticlockwise, i don't have that installed so.... no. I am using the i810 driver in xorg.conf. A while ago i did install that package but appeared to do nothing for me
[05:55] <cables> oscar, okay, I'm not sure why.
[05:55] <dibblego> nonewmsgs, nobody asked it
[05:55] <cables> nonewmsgs, he wasn't talking about buying Ubuntu
[05:56] <thadthudpucker> mon^rch: thanks again!
[05:56] <anticlockwise> oh really? Ok, then I'll try installing nothing :)
[05:56] <cables> dibblego, nVidia cards are generally well-supported. I'll find a list of supported nVidia cards, just a sec.
[05:56] <anticlockwise> ajmorris_, thanks
[05:56] <oscar> cables: Do you know  some place or some person to ask about that?
[05:56] <ajmorris_> anticlockwise, but it won't hurt to install that package if you want it though.
[05:56] <ajmorris_> np
[05:56] <dibblego> cables, I'm looking at a ATI x550 specifically
[05:56] <cables> dibblego, I don't know
[05:56] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: I have integrated intel graphics, i have no problems without any extra drivers.
[05:56] <_Luks> whereis the apache2 cgi-bin default directory ?
[05:56] <_Luks> whereis the apache2 cgi-bin default directory ?
[05:57] <anticlockwise> thadthudpucker, thanks, I'll try that out then
[05:57] <dibblego> !graphics
[05:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about graphics - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:57] <Steil> I'm using evolution to connect to an imap server....but it keeps listing all the dot files as well as my mail folders....is there anyway to fix this?
[05:58] <danny500> Hello?
[05:58] <thadthudpucker> mon^rch: im dl'ing firestarter now...
[05:58] <mon^rch> :)
[05:59] <toferrado> cables, did not work :/
[05:59] <toferrado> cables, How can I apply a dynamic wallpaper?
[05:59] <cables> toferrado, ok... i don't know how to do it then.
[06:03] (colbert/#ubuntu) can someone help me fix this cron job, here is my crontab: http://pastebin.ca/423417    upon saving and exiting here is the error i keep getting: http://pastebin.ca/423419
[06:03] (anticlockwise/#ubuntu) thadthudpucker, ah, hopefully that the developers of firestarter could consider non-english users as well :)
[06:04] <jimmio> how do I execute a .rpm file?
[06:05] <mon^rch> jimmio: if you want to install an rpm, use "aline" to convert it to a deb and then install
[06:05] <Chetwin> Oh, here's a good one!
[06:05] <mon^rch> alien*
[06:05] <Chetwin> I installed feisty to "sample it"
[06:05] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: well, in a perfect universe, yea, every sentient being would consider every other sentient being, and we wouldnt hve wars.
[06:05] <jimmio> mon^rch: thanks
[06:05] <mon^rch> :)
[06:05] <Chetwin> Little too beta for me, but it loads in 8 seconds with the restricted modules
[06:06] <Marupa> I've got a celeron D, should I enable concurrent booting or not?
[06:06] <jimmio> !alien
[06:06] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[06:06] <anticlockwise> thadthudpucker, yeah, you're right
[06:07] <Chetwin> Can I upgrade just me kernel with the feisty source?
[06:07] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: i just wish everybody else was!
[06:07] <Clem> Hi people Any suggestions on what kind of dialup modem to buy that works good with ubuntu?
[06:07] <thadthudpucker> Clem: ill send you one for free....
[06:07] <Chetwin> Clem: here's a suggestion "Get on board with the broadband"
[06:07] <Chetwin> Sorry
[06:07] <xzai> www.youtube.com
[06:07] <thadthudpucker> Clem: you want two?
[06:08] <Chetwin> That was rude
[06:08] <anticlockwise> thadthudpucker, maybe they are
[06:08] <ajmorris_> anyone running virtualbox with windows XP or vista here?
[06:08] <xzai> http://www.youtube.com
[06:08] <xzai> its down
[06:08] <Marupa> ajmorris_: me.
[06:08] <xzai> viacom owned them
[06:08] <Chetwin> ajmorris: it workse with vm ware and xp
[06:08] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: its just a lot of people dont show it!
[06:08] <cables> ajmorris_, yeah, running xp.
[06:08] <Chetwin> ajmorris: Never tried it with vista
[06:08] <LadyNikon> why do we care about youtube here?
[06:08] <cables> !offtopic
[06:08] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:08] <narayana> hi, i've installed ubuntu server just to play around and i've accidently selected azerty keyboard, how would i change that to qwerty?
[06:08] <xzai> best website on earth
[06:08] <bimberi> Clem: any external modem should work.  It's pci 'winmodems' that are the problem.
[06:08] <genii> Clem Don't buy any winmodems if possible. If you have to buy one get a Lucent winmodem. Otherwise get a good hardware based modem
[06:08] <Clem> I would get broadband if i could when your out in the country dialed up with 2 modems and phonelines just to get a speed of 52.8 with 2 lines
[06:08] <mon^rch> vista-ha-ha-ha-ha
[06:09] <genii> Clem An external one is even better
[06:09] <Marupa> can Celeron D support concurrecy?
[06:09] <Chetwin> I know.  Vista is WEAK
[06:09] <ajmorris_> Marupa or Chetwin, have u installed office 2007 on it?
[06:09] <xzai> maybe we can suggest to them they try ubuntu server so they dont have a problem next time
[06:09] <cables> Marupa, it's a dual-core processor, right?
[06:09] <Marupa> ajmorris_: never.  I never use MS office.
[06:09] <Chetwin> ajmorris: No but I'd rather attempt the install with crossover office, instead of virtualizing
[06:09] <Marupa> cables: I don't know.  how would I check?
[06:09] <cables> ajmorris_, why wouldn't Office work on a VM?
[06:09] <anticlockwise> thadthudpucker, any particular things?
[06:09] <ajmorris_> chetwin, crossover is incapable of running office 2007
[06:10] <Chetwin> Marups: How do you fully compensate for the lack of formatting with openoffice and MS word?
[06:10] <ajmorris_> cables, VM was too slow for me with XP
[06:10] <cables> Chetwin, what do you mean?
[06:10] <Chetwin> ajmorris: doh
[06:10] <Marupa> Chetwin: What do you mean lack of formatting?
[06:10] <mon^rch> office 2k7 sucks anyway
[06:10] <cables> ajmorris_, you need more mRAM
[06:10] <mon^rch> 2k3 is better
[06:10] <Terminus> Chetwin: by writing all my documents in html. =P
[06:10] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: well, life, the universe, everything really....
[06:10] <LadyNikon> Chetwin: yeah.. i lost points on a paper.. when i used oo instead of word :/
[06:10] <Clem> Ok off to ebay. I currently have a conexant one. But yes i am looking for an external one. Just wondering on a good brand name.
[06:10] <ajmorris_> cables, VIrtualBox runs it normal speed though
[06:10] <cables> Chetwin, formatting transfers just fine between Office and OpenOffice, even with native Word files
[06:11] <Chetwin> I created a resume and the saved it as a doc, then sent it to a buddy who uses windows, and he said it was all jacked up
[06:11] <Marupa> cables: How would I check if it's dualcore?
[06:11] <pigeonflight> Chetwin: but you can export to PDF
[06:11] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: would you like to continue talking in a different venue?
[06:11] <rll> narayana, you should be able to go to System->Keyboard and add the layout you want
[06:11] <cables> Marupa, what do you mean by concurrency?
[06:11] <Chetwin> pigeonflight: that was my first idea, it worked perfect
[06:11] <narayana> i dont have gui
[06:11] <pigeonflight> :)
[06:11] <Chetwin> But to re-edit, it taked aeons
[06:11] <anticlockwise> thadthudpucker, yeah, I would consider that to be more sensible, as this is Ubuntu server
[06:11] <devian> hallo
[06:12] <ajmorris_> anyway my problem with Office 2007 on VirtualBOx (even though none of u r running it) is that it says i need a later version of windows. Anyone running VirtualBox come across this before?
[06:12] <Chetwin> LadyNikon: yeah WEAK
[06:12] <pigeonflight> Chetwin: I guess you didn't have the original
[06:12] <Marupa> cables: I'm following a Ubuntu tweaking guide that says if you hahve a dual core/ht/mt proc, enable concurrency.
[06:12] <ajmorris_> like with another app that needs xp or greater?
[06:12] <Chetwin> pigeonflight: That's not really my point.
[06:12] <devian> hi can i format any HDD with ubuntu during ubuntu'd live CD ??
[06:12] <Chetwin> pigeonflight: Someone mentioned that you could use Oo instead of MS
[06:13] <Chetwin> pigeonflight, so I contradicted, which may be a matter of opinion
[06:13] <NickGarvey> devian, as long as it isn't in use
[06:13] <devian> the HDD is now RAW,BLANK,no partition is there
[06:13] <pigeonflight> and this is true... I certainly do
[06:13] <Marupa> devian: format /dev/hda1
[06:13] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: you have MSN messenger?
[06:13] <cables> Marupa, you have dual-core.
[06:13] <pigeonflight> Chetwin: it depends on the use case, for me it's cool
[06:14] <Marupa> cables how can you tell?
[06:14] <devian> i want to format it with fat32....bcs i need that in that HDD
[06:14] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: or do you know of another channel on a different server?
[06:14] <cables> Marupa, 'cause it's a Pentium D.
[06:14] <cables> Marupa, you said so yourself.
[06:14] <Chetwin> But LadyNikon lost points on her paper over formatting issues.  What's wiggity whack
[06:14] <Marupa> cables Celeron D
[06:14] <anticlockwise> thadthudpucker, no, my MSN: anticlockwise_5@hotmail.com
[06:14] <thadthudpucker> ok.
[06:15] <cables> Marupa, damn, that's not dual-core
[06:15] <Marupa> cables Model 4, Family 14.
[06:15] <anticlockwise> thadthudpucker, I'm off to dinner, it's 12 o'clock here in China
[06:15] <thadthudpucker> anticlockwise: ok, im connected now...
[06:15] <thadthudpucker> WOW!!
[06:16] <cables> Marupa, Celeron D stands for Celeron Desktop, not Celeron Dual, unlike Pentium D which IS dual.
[06:16] <thadthudpucker> ill be here when you get back.
[06:16] <Marupa> cables ok.  That's all I needed.
[06:16] <anticlockwise> thadthudpucker, ok, gotcha
[06:16] <thadthudpucker> ok
[06:16] <thadthudpucker> your message arent going to come in chinese, are they?
[06:17] <anticlockwise> lol, ah, no, of course not
[06:17] <thadthudpucker> hehe
[06:17] <anticlockwise> they'll be in the same language as I speak here
[06:17] <Chetwin> So any help with my restricted modules and boot lag?
[06:17] <thadthudpucker> gives new meaning for me to " world wide web"
[06:17] <wawaw> hey
[06:17] <wawaw> i sent this command:

[06:19] <pixelcrash> does anyone here have experience getting sound drivers to work?
[06:19] <cables> wawaw, looks like a server's down...
[06:19] <wawaw> so i must wait?
[06:19] <Steil> is there a way to set the icon font for the desktop?
[06:20] <Steil> er the font color
[06:20] <cables> wawaw, you could go over there and fix the servers for them...
[06:20] <cables> Steil, System>Preferences>Fonts
[06:20] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, come over to #ubuntuforums-beginners i'll try and help. This channel is too active, lol for me to help u :)
[06:20] <wawaw> cables,  how ?
[06:20] <bschroed> any other amd64 folks having issues with 6.10 crashing during livecd install and regular use once ubuntu is installed? i really want to just get ubuntu working but i get non-stop crashes
[06:21] <cables> wawaw, I'm kidding... sorry.
[06:21] <sbjaved> Why are Dapper's repos so outdated? I thought it was for the long haul...
[06:21] <wawaw> cables,  haha so i must wait then right?
[06:21] <cables> sbjaved, exactly... they don't update them to preserve compatibility and stability.
[06:21] <wawaw> or other way to install java runtime enviroment?
[06:21] <pixelcrash> i have integrated SiS 630 audio card that I can't get working. Tried alsa-project, but the trident driver that i compiled is a "X?" status and didn't work. I have the windows audio driver exe, but not sure if there's a way to wrap the driver to ubuntu. couldn't find it in the forums. anyone have any ideas?
[06:21] <thadthudpucker> can i update dapper to the next one using the ubuntu 6.10 disc?
[06:21] <cables> wawaw, why are you using those weird repositories?
[06:22] <cables> thadthudpucker, you need the Alternate disc
[06:22] <Steil> cables: How do I change the font color, the font preferences doesn't have options for color....
[06:22] <wawaw> cuz here told me the command
[06:22] <nonuda_> how do i setup my workgroup in windows networking?
[06:22] <cables> Steil, oh, I didn't realize that...
[06:22] <sbjaved> I mean at least basic software such as Firefox should be updated for stability reasons...its stuck at 1.5.x!!
[06:22] <cables> wawaw, no, but you added debuntu repositories... you don't need those.
[06:22] <cables> sbjaved, it gets security updates but not program updates.
[06:22] <wawaw> hahaha so what i should do pal
[06:23] <cables> sbjaved, you're supposed to upgrade.
[06:23] <Steil> sbjaved: 1.5.x is stable....
[06:23] <cables> wawaw, I dunno... reverse the changes you made. I don't have enough time right now to do that for you.
[06:23] <pixelcrash> anyone know how to get stubborn sound cards working?
[06:23] <sbjaved> If i would like to install newer versions om Dapper...is there a way?
[06:24] <wawaw> cables,  i didn't do something i wanna install java only that
[06:24] <Crazytom> pixelcrash, is it an x-fi?
[06:24] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, alsa-project should have done the trick as it supports that card : http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=SiS&card=SiS+630.&chip=SI7018&module=trident#Inst
[06:24] <cables> wawaw, sudo aptitude install sun-java5-plugin
[06:25] <killermach> how to I get "apt-get" to show me all packages with "kernel" in them?
[06:25] <wawaw> cables,  lool just that?
[06:25] <jrib> killermach: apt-cache search kernel
[06:25] <pixelcrash> that card uses the trident driver, i compiled it, but i had no success with modprobe
[06:25] <jrib> !apt > killermach    (killermach, see the private message from ubotu)
[06:25] <bschroed> question... is 6.10 working for anyone with amd64?
[06:25] <cables> wawaw, yeah, but that might not work because of your weird sources.
[06:25] <pixelcrash> it's at "X?" status, which is probably a bad thing
[06:25] <jeff_> is there something special i need to do to run .sh files?
[06:26] <killermach> jrib: thanks.. trying to get an Nvidia 7900GS video driver working
[06:26] <jrib> !nvidia > killermach    (killermach, see the private message from ubotu)
[06:26] <jrib> jeff_: no
[06:26] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, type this into a shell: modinfo soundcore
[06:26] <jrib> jeff_: what exactly are you trying to run?
[06:26] <adorablepuppy> Hello all.
[06:26] <enix> does anyone know how to make firefox go back a page when the backspace key is pressed in FF2, it was this way in FF1.5
[06:26] <mon^rch> woof
[06:27] <jeff_> its a program
[06:27] <jeff_> an installation
[06:27] <jrib> jeff_: of course
[06:27] <jeff_> its just a .sh
[06:27] <jeff_> what do i have to type in command window to run it?
[06:27] <jrib> jeff_: I ask because if it is in the repositories, it is better to use the pacakges
[06:27] <adorablepuppy> enix: about:config, search for backspace
[06:27] <jeff_> its not
[06:27] <pixelcrash> ajmorris_, i get this :

[06:28] <pixelcrash> my bad
[06:29] <adorablepuppy> enix:To be more precise, I believe the exact name for the config setting is browser.backspace_action, you should be able to set it to zero and it'll do back on backspace. :)
[06:29] <sbjaved> um...any way to install Firefox 2 on Dapper without breaking it?
[06:29] <jrib> !firefox > sbjaved    (sbjaved, see the private message from ubotu)
[06:30] <LuxVoodoo> Hey, all. have ? about fonts. Use default Sans font on everything Ubuntu. Use firefox and have the FF default fonts installed there. But in form boxes like on LiveJournal, Myspace etc. my type looks light. Any ideas?
[06:30] <nonuda_> currently i have setup shared folders in my ubuntu 6.10, but windows networking detect my my workgroup as "workgroup", how do i change it?
[06:30] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, it returned that you don't have the alsa module go here to fix this problem.: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=SiS&card=SiS+630.&chip=SI7018&module=trident#Inst
[06:30] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, post back if your sound doesn't work after following those steps
[06:30] <sbjaved> Thankyou
[06:30] <Inuyaga> anyone got any experience with installing on a Promise SuperTrack EX8350 RAID 0?
[06:30] <enix> adorablepuppy: any idea on value, dn't see anything but browser.backspace_action: default-integer-1
[06:30] <thadthudpucker> cables, thanks
[06:31] <Inuyaga> cant find anything beyond compile your own driver...
[06:31] <pixelcrash> those are the steps i've been following for the past few hours, ajmorris_
[06:31] <Inuyaga> and Ubuntu's LiveCD does not make that easy
[06:31] <enix> adorablepuppy: nm, got it
[06:31] <enix> adorablepuppy: thanks for tip
[06:31] <adorablepuppy> np
[06:31] <pixelcrash> i'm willing to assume i've done something wrong, but i don't know what it is
[06:31] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, oh my bad. The output should have shown that you are using alsa though
[06:32] <pixelcrash> yeah...
[06:32] <pixelcrash> is there a way to get the whole source package somehow
[06:32] <nonuda_> !workgroup
[06:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about workgroup - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:32] <pixelcrash> maybe i'm missing chunks
[06:32] <devian> hallo how can i format the new HDD with xUbuntu? this is blank now
[06:32] <devian> can it be done with live Linux mode??
[06:32] <BrianG> !cinco midi file organizer
[06:33] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, where did u download the source from?
[06:34] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, and did you try the alsa drivers from the ubuntu repos?
[06:34] <stanner> i need some help with e2fsck
[06:35] <pixelcrash> ajmorris_, ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub
[06:35] <stanner> how do you fix a sort read when running e2fsck
[06:35] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, damn have to login to access that
[06:35] <pixelcrash> i only downloaded the driver, lib, and utils, though, since that's all it talks about
[06:36] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, did you try the alsa-base from the repos?
[06:36] <pixelcrash> that might help, let me check
[06:37] <glguy> Are there Linux drivers to provide hardware OpenGL support for legacy ATI Radeon 64MB VIVO cards?
[06:37] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, and maybe check out the alsa-tools-gui package too
[06:37] <stanner> Have you checked the ati site for legacy drivers yet?
[06:37] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, and the alsa utilities one
[06:38] <glguy> when I checked the site, and all the cards older than radeion 7000 were lumped into legacy
[06:38] <glguy> I didn't hold on to much hope
[06:38] <glguy> but I thought I'd ask before I moved on
[06:38] <sorcere12> gave me this error :
[06:38] <sorcere12> fatal error:
[06:38] <sorcere12> server is already active for display 0
[06:38] <sorcere12> if this server is no longer running remove /tmp/xo-lock
[06:38] <sorcere12> and start again.
[06:38] <sorcere12> sorry
[06:38] <sorcere12> i got this message
[06:39] <sorcere12> could anyone tell me what this means .. iam on a live cd
[06:39] <sorcere12> i have this problem .. my monitor flockers
[06:39] <bullgard4> Using Ubuntu 7.04 I can save the current session by selecting Gnome-Menu System > Preferences > Session > (Sessions) > Session Options > Save the current session. This button does not existin Ubuntu 6.10. How can I save the current session in Ubuntu 6.10?
[06:39] <mon^rch> happy Ubuntuing, and hey check out Linux MCE... wild, just wild
[06:40] <adorablepuppy> Means that the X server was already running, that you tried to start another instance of it. The Xorg lock file is to prevent from starting x on the same display twice.
[06:40] <stanner> bullgard its there
[06:41] <stanner> bullgard you have to click the save current session box
[06:42] <Varsendaggr> where is the nice easy disk management tool?
[06:42] <pixelcrash> ajmorris_, both are installed already
[06:42] <pixelcrash> i got the one labeled alsa-source, too, just in case it helps
[06:43] <wile_e8> I don't think I have a swap partition, and it's causing my computer to freeze a lot.  Would anyone be able to help me figure out what to do to fix it?
[06:43] <adorablepuppy> sorcere12
[06:43] <adorablepuppy> you still here?
[06:43] <pavs> I have used my whole HD to install ubuntu but now I want to try out a differant distro alongside ubuntu how do i "take out" some space from the original installation and install this new distro?
[06:43] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, have u looked through the gui tools?
[06:43] <Flannel> pavs: yeah.  Boot up a liveCD, run a partitioner (gparted) and shrink your partition
[06:43] <glguy> stanner: were you asking me about ATI's site because you didn't know the answer and wanted to respond anyway, or because I had missed something?
[06:43] <pixelcrash> ajmorris_, no, where are they located?
[06:44] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, if the alsa-gui-tools package is installed then they should be in the menu somewhere.
[06:44] <stanner> glguy i had a friend who had to use the legacy drivers because his card was not supported by the newer drivers
[06:45] <Flannel> wile_e8: you can add a swap partition, or a swap file.
[06:45] <stanner> wile_e8: run in a terminal $ sudo fdisk -l and look at what it outputs
[06:46] <Rimal> i have printer Canon LBP 2900, but i can't configure, how can i configure this printer
[06:46] <stanner> should have an entry saying something like /dev/sda5 ............. Linux swap /Solaris
[06:46] <tbuss> need help with lm-sensors. when I sudo sensors -s I get Can't access procfs/sysfs file, make sure you have mounted sysfs and libsensors
[06:46] <tbuss> was compiled with sysfs support! Anyone have any advice
[06:47] <pixelcrash> ajmorris_, i installed the gui-tools, but that just seems to be set up for hammerfall sound cards
[06:47] <pixelcrash> doesn't do anything
[06:47] <wile_e8> stanner: it's weird, I have /dev/hda2 and /dev/hda5 over the same sections (/dev/hda1 is the main partition)
[06:47] <stanner> Rimal: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-LBP-2900
[06:47] <Rimal> zipper, i have printer Canon LBP 2900, but i can't configure, how can i configure this printer
[06:47] <stanner> right
[06:48] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, ok sorry, unless you are getting any error outputs in the shell then i am stumped
[06:48] <stanner> /dev/hda2 ......... Extended?
[06:48] <wile_e8> yeah
[06:48] <pixelcrash> ajmorris_, alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[06:49] <pixelcrash> it's uber-lame
[06:49] <stanner> When you run the ubuntu installer guided partitioning, it created an extended partition then the swap partition inside it.
[06:49] <wile_e8> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13831/
[06:49] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, anctually have you experimented with the options in Systems >> Preferences >>sound?
[06:49] <Varsendaggr> !ntfs
[06:49] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[06:49] <pixelcrash> ajmorris_, yeah, no sound cards listed in it
[06:50] <stanner> wile_e8: yes you have a swap partion
[06:50] <ajmorris_> under sound events and sound playback have you experimented with those?
[06:50] <ajmorris_> and the test button
[06:50] <stanner> wile_e8: are you trying to turn your swap partion on?
[06:50] <louish> hi all.   I want to share a directory i.e. "/home/downloads" with smb and nfs.  Could someone tell me what I should chmod the directory to?  I want r/w access for others.
[06:51] <wawaw> how look my desktop !!  http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=check_download&ufid=FD1182B65F647C87&key=ef1fade4380313f112efaafd50cfe0b63caacb97
[06:51] <Varsendaggr> hey there use to be a easy disk management tool....   hard drives    where is it?
[06:51] <pixelcrash> ajmorris_, tried it, but it made no sound
[06:51] <wile_e8> stanner: yeah, I think so.  I was having lots of freezing, and ran into this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=393733&highlight=amount+of+memory
[06:51] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, is alsa there
[06:51] <pixelcrash> i clicked the test buttons, got no errors, but no sound either
[06:51] <pixelcrash> no
[06:52] <stanner> wile_e8: if you check you fstab, it might not be listed as hda5
[06:52] <wile_e8> stanne: free -m had all zeroes after the swap
[06:52] <Flannel> wile_e8: you need to create a swap partition, or a swap file.
[06:52] <dumezil> ive got a sound question.  my volume control seems messed up.  if i put the volume slider at approx 50%, its like i muted the sound.  only from like 75%-100% does any sound come out.  how do i reset the scale used to figure the volume?
[06:53] <dumezil> i used alsa on an intel HDA onboard sound card
[06:53] <adorablepuppy> So, does ubuntu have GNOME 2.18?
[06:54] <adorablepuppy> I mean available to upgrade to.  .
[06:54] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, i am stumped it obviously can't find the card but i don't know how to fix it at this time :(
[06:54] <ajmorris_> srry
[06:54] <musya> anybody here know of an IDE they like for ubuntu?
[06:54] <stanner> wile_e8: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13834/
[06:54] <adorablepuppy> musya: What language?
[06:54] <stanner> mono develop
[06:55] <stanner> or for just c++ codeblocks
[06:55] <musya> adorablepuppy: c++
[06:55] <stanner> if its c++ check out code blocks
[06:55] <musya> i wasnt a fan of codeblocks
[06:55] <stanner> meh to each his own
[06:55] <adorablepuppy> musya: I really like gedit. It's pretty non-intrusive. Doesn't have options to compile your code, but it's pretty nice.
[06:55] <stanner> i personal dont like the new anjut because they took away the easy compile/run buttons from the toolbar
[06:56] <bimberi> adorablepuppy: feisty (next release) has GNOME 2.18
[06:56] <Varsendaggr> how do i move a folder and keep all of the same permissions?
[06:56] <stanner> lol
[06:56] <musya> it had wierd debugging modes, but i suppose it just takes getting use too
[06:56] <musya> yea gedit and g++ is what i use now
[06:56] <adorablepuppy> bimberi: Will there be a way I can upgrade my Edgy to a fiesty?
[06:56] <bimberi> Varsendaggr: mv folder /path/to/destination
[06:56] <stanner> cp -p <folder> <new folder>
[06:56] <stanner> rm -rf <folder>
[06:56] <bimberi> adorablepuppy: you bet
[06:56] <Flannel> adorablepuppy: yep.  Just like normal updates
[06:56] <Varsendaggr> cool
[06:56] <adorablepuppy> ^_^ sweetness!
[06:56] <bimberi> :)
[06:56] <chowmeined> feisty
[06:57] <chowmeined> is cool
[06:57] <chowmeined> except i wish it came with bacula 2.0.x
[06:57] <adorablepuppy> I'll just wait till it turns stable. :D
[06:57] <Flannel> adorablepuppy: actually, with update-manager, once Feisty is released, you'll be notified of the upgrade automatically.
[06:57] <bimberi> !prevu | chowmeined
[06:57] <ubotu> chowmeined: prevu is an automated, personal backporting utility. Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu for more details
[06:57] <stanner> if you edit your sources.lst and replace edgy with feisty
[06:57] <wile_e8> stanner: I don't know what's up with mine, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13831/
[06:57] <adorablepuppy> Flannel: excellent! I always install my updates right when they come out.
[06:57] <chowmeined> bimberi: no I mean even feisty doesn't have bacula 2.0.x
[06:57] <chowmeined> I would have to compile it from source
[06:58] <Flannel> stanner: no.  That's not the recommended upgrade method anymore
[06:58] <stanner> wile_e8: sorry that was my fstab
[06:58] <stanner> Flannel: My b
[06:58] <bimberi> chowmeined: you can backport from debian sid.  as long as the dependencies don't get too complicated.  that is assuming sid has 2.0.x
[06:58] <stanner> what would you sugguest then fallenl?
[06:59] <chowmeined> bimberi: ah ok cool
[06:59] <Nubbie> hey guys, i have an annoying little problem. i have a cdrom disk mounted somewhere, yet i have no cd in my drives, there is no entry in fstab, and it is not mounted in /media. can somebody help me get to the bottom of this?
[06:59] <adorablepuppy> musya: I guess I wouldn't know a good C/C++ IDE, I rarely ever write in C/C++. Mostly just C# and Python.
[06:59] <Varsendaggr> stanner, i am getting ommiting directory    ".wine"
[07:00] <stanner> use sudo
[07:00] <stanner> so
[07:00] <wile_e8> stanner: yeah, I was just trying to figure out why mine looked so different
[07:00] <ajmorris_> pixelcrash, a few more things u could try : http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2006/03/msg01262.html
[07:00] <NDAKOTA> c# IDE for linux?
[07:00] <adorablepuppy> cat /proc/mounts?
[07:00] <adorablepuppy> NDAKOTA monodevelop
[07:00] <bimberi> !monodevelop
[07:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about monodevelop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:00] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: me?
[07:01] <bimberi> !info monodevelop
[07:01] <ubotu> monodevelop: C#/Boo/Java/Nemerle/ILasm Development Environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.12-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 1695 kB, installed size 5344 kB
[07:01] <adorablepuppy> Yeah, Nubbie cat /proc/mounts
[07:01] <NDAKOTA> 5mb?
[07:01] <louish> hi all.   I want to share a directory i.e. "/home/downloads" with smb and nfs.  Could someone tell me what I should chmod the directory to?  I want r/w access for others.
[07:01] <dumezil> in the keyboard shortcuts control, ive set a key for volume up and volume down.  what does that control?  when i have the mixer open, and i press vol up/down, every channel goes up or down.  i want these buttons to just control one channel, the PCM channel.  anyone know anything about this?
[07:01] <bimberi> NDAKOTA: yes, it might have some other dependencies though
[07:01] <stanner> c# ide would be mono develop
[07:01] <stanner> as far as i know
[07:02] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: http://pastebin.ca/423448 i should also mention i'm using Feisty.
[07:02] <stanner> Varsendaggr: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13835/
[07:02] <bimberi> s/other/not-already-installed/
[07:02] <NDAKOTA> does it use a simulator? that would be slow when doing debugging
[07:02] <Varsendaggr> stanner, thanks
[07:03] <musya> adorablepuppy: you ever make websties with python?
[07:03] <stanner> no no simulator
[07:03] <NDAKOTA> i guess tere's no other way
[07:03] <bimberi> NDAKOTA: no idea sorry - i know it exists, but that's the extent of myk knowledge
[07:03] <stanner> have you ever uses beagle fsport or tomboynotes?
[07:03] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: is it because edgy mounted my cdrom drives via UUID?
[07:03] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie: Can't be any of these, all these are mounted read-write.
[07:03] <Nubbie> all three of those applications are killer!
[07:03] <Nubbie> banshee too <-- :)
[07:04] <LeoNz> Is there a tutorial where i can find out how to install ndiswrapper?
[07:04] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: isn't it strange? after an upgrade it just never went away. as far as i know the drive is still functioning and mounting properly
[07:04] <stanner> sorry but im more of an amorok + mysql fan lol but i do like banshee and it is pretty sweet
[07:04] <adorablepuppy> musya: I wrote a page in python once, but then I decided I didnt like mod_python and went back to php.
[07:04] <Crazytom> LeoNz, do you know what chipset you have?
[07:05] <adorablepuppy> Nubbia, you sure it's mounted?
[07:05] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie*
[07:05] <LeoNz> yeh i already know what to get, i jsut need to find out how to install ndiswrapper
[07:05] <NDAKOTA> anyone familiar with the python scripting interface bounty?
[07:05] <LeoNz> but i have a broadcom one
[07:05] <musya> adorablepuppy: why was that? that you didnt like it?
[07:05] <stanner> LeoNz: if your running edgy or dapper you can use automatix
[07:05] <LeoNz> automatix?
[07:05] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: well there is an icon stuck to my desktop... can't delete it.
[07:05] <stanner> well
[07:05] <stanner> automatix2
[07:05] <stanner> but yes
[07:06] <NDAKOTA> leoNz, type ndiswrapper and see if it's already installed
[07:06] <stdin> LeoNz:, stanner: DON'T use automatix
[07:06] <Nubbie> !automatix
[07:06] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:06] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie: Right click, unmount volume
[07:06] <stanner> why not?
[07:06] <LeoNz> stdin no it isnt isntalled
[07:06] <stdin> stanner: read message from ubotu
[07:06] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: just has eject
[07:06] <LeoNz> ndkota no it isnt installed
[07:06] <louish> Is there a way I can index a NAS box with beagle?
[07:06] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie, that work then?
[07:06] <NDAKOTA> leoNz, use synaptic to install ndiswrapper
[07:06] <LeoNz> ah k
[07:07] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: um no... it didn't eject the disc.
[07:07] <NDAKOTA> LeoNz, have you tried it
[07:07] <Nubbie> (i put one in there just now)
[07:07] <Crazytom> LeoNz, is it a bcm4306?
[07:07] <LeoNz> im gonna tryin it now ndakota
[07:07] <LeoNz> yes crazytom
[07:07] <Crazytom> LeoNz, wait then
[07:07] <LeoNz> kk
[07:07] <Crazytom> LeoNz, are you using feisty?
[07:07] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie, try lookin at /proc/partitions I really can't tell what's what.
[07:07] <NDAKOTA> leoNz, I've had success using ndiswrapper
[07:08] <stanner> yeah yeah i read it **never had problem with it personally but understands position**
[07:08] <NDAKOTA> LeoNz, just remember to disable the already installed native bcm driver
[07:08] <LeoNz> no im not usin feisty crazy
[07:08] <NDAKOTA> because it conflicts with ndiswrapper
[07:08] <adorablepuppy> ^_~ my wireless has a native driver.
[07:08] <Crazytom> NDAKOTA, ndiswrapper is a giant pain in the ass with bcm4306
[07:08] <LeoNz> how do i disable it dakota
[07:08] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: http://pastebin.ca/423452
[07:08] <Crazytom> fwcutter works alot better
[07:09] <Nubbie> doesn't look out of the ordinary...
[07:09] <stanner> e2fsck: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while checking ext3 journal for /dev/sdb1
[07:09] <stanner> anyone got a fix
[07:09] <LeoNz> hmm so what should i do crazytom and ndakota
[07:10] <NDAKOTA> rmmod bcm43xx
[07:10] <yin> Hello everybody ,Is there some primary c/c++ progaramming book???
[07:10] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie, looks a little outta the ordinary to me. You have hda, which I'm assuming is your hard drive. I wonder what dm-0/1/2 is. . . .
[07:10] <Crazytom> fwcutter would be way easier
[07:10] <adorablepuppy> ls -l /dev/cdrom
[07:10] <NDAKOTA> then use ndiswrapper to load bcm windows driver

[07:10] <Crazytom> why are you telling him to use ndiswrapper when his native driver will work fine?
[07:10] <NDAKOTA> I don't recommend using the native driver for bcm43xx
[07:11] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: madm or something?
[07:11] <Crazytom> LeoNz, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear
[07:11] <NDAKOTA> LeoNz, lsmod bcm    is it listed
[07:11] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: my fstab: http://pastebin.ca/423452
[07:12] <LeoNz> usage: lsmod?
[07:12] <bschroed> anyone here successfully running ubuntu 6.10 on amd64?
[07:12] <LeoNz> dont think it is
[07:13] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie, just wanna see where /dev/cdrom links to. use ls -l /dev/cdrom and report back the findings.
[07:13] <NDAKOTA> LeoNz, if you intend to use ndiswrapper, delete the bcm43xx driver file, and then install ndiswrapper
[07:13] <Nubbie> !anyone | bschroed
[07:13] <ubotu> bschroed: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:13] <LeoNz> kk
[07:13] <Crazytom> LeoNz, do you want to use your native driver or do you want to install ndiswrapper and blacklist your other driver
[07:13] <stanner> bschroed: well what do you mean running x86_64 or running 386?
[07:13] <LeoNz> install ndiswrapper and blacklist
[07:13] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2007-04-01 00:32 /dev/cdrom -> hdc   (which should be correct)
[07:14] <bschroed> stanner: running 6.10 for amd64, not x86_64
[07:14] <adorablepuppy> Ok. Then sudo umount /dev/hdc
[07:14] <RyanRyan52> When I go to Ctrl+Alt+F1, use it, then go to Ctrl+Alt+F7 it has a blinking white screen, I am using the Feisty beta, how can i fix this?
[07:14] <adorablepuppy> And it should disappear from your desktop
[07:14] <Crazytom> go for it then
[07:14] <Crazytom> LeoNz, good luck
[07:14] <Nubbie> its not mounted <---
[07:14] <RyanRyan52> i have to unplug it to fix and restart
[07:14] <stanner> bschroed: i dont get what you mean
[07:14] <LeoNz> thanks crazytom
[07:14] <cables> @lart 8 doesthisworkinhere
[07:15] <Nubbie> crazypuppy: thats the problem: its not mounted.
[07:15] <Crazytom> LeoNz, i have a bcm4306 and after 3 hours of playing with ndiswrapper i used fwcutter and had it running in 10 minutes
[07:15] <bschroed> stanner: from what i understand, i think x86_64 technically refers to Intel's 64 bit chips, as opposed to amd's 64 bit arch
[07:15] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie: And the cd icon still appears on your desktop?
[07:15] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: yes that's the issue i think.
[07:16] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: i thought it was something not unmounting correctly, but it doesn't seem to be the case.
[07:16] <bschroed> stanner: i've tried installing and running 6.10 on my amd64 machine (newcastle 3200+ 2.2ghz) but I keep getting frequent crashes.  one time i was able to do the install quick enough before the livecd installer crashed, but now the installed-6.10 crashes too
[07:16] <stanner> bschroed: no. first amd had 64 out before intel. second, it works for both amd and intel. and third the "preformace gains" you get from running x86_64 are minimal compared to the "easy of use" gained from just running 386
[07:16] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: can i do something with nautilus to remove it? (i think there's a gconfkey... i'll try that)
[07:16] <jpsamara> The 64 bit extensions to IA32 were developed by amd and they are x86_64... intel call it emt64 but its the same
[07:17] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie: Maybe the auto mounter didn't clean it up. Is there a folder left in /media for the cdrom?
[07:17] <RyanRyan52> When I go to Ctrl+Alt+F1, use it, then go to Ctrl+Alt+F7 it has a blinking white screen, I am using the Feisty beta, how can i fix this???i have to unplug it to fix it and restart
[07:17] <Flannel> RyanRyan52: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support
[07:17] <bschroed> stanner: okay i guess i'll just try the 386 build to try to get rid of the crashes
[07:17] <bschroed> jpsamara: ah ok thanks for the clarification
[07:17] <RyanRyan52> thanks
[07:17] <uda> !samba
[07:17] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[07:17] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: there is nothing but cdrom, cdrom0, and cdrom1 in /media. none of these folders has any contents.
[07:18] <LeoNz> crazytom: i sent a PM
[07:18] <stanner> bschroed: i have an amd 64 x2 4400 2.2 ghz and i ran x86_64 for a while but tring to get flas/java/embede video working *easily* and the lack of other things like wine made me go back to just the 386. when runing the 2.6.*-*-generic it also detecs that i have dual core
[07:18] <jpsamara> stanner> did anyone benchmark i386 x x86_64 ? I think that because 64 has double the registers visible to the compiler, gcc would generate much faster binaries
[07:19] <Nubbie> coldboot: welcome my ontario friend.
[07:19] <Crazytom> LeoNz, if you aren't registered it won't show up
[07:19] <LeoNz> oh ok
[07:19] <LeoNz> well how do i use fwcutter
[07:19] <LeoNz> ?
[07:19] <coldboot> Nubbie: Hello there, not for long!
[07:19] <coldboot> Nubbie: I'm looking for a job out west
[07:19] <NDAKOTA> LeoNz,you can pm me
[07:19] <LeoNz> i already did, it didnt sent
[07:19] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie: Hmm. I've got no idea what's up. :( One thing you could do is get the Gnome Configuration Manager up, goto apps->nautilus->desktop and untick the box that says volumes visible.
[07:19] <dougie> anyone use gimp much?
[07:19] <LeoNz> lol
[07:19] <Nubbie> coldboot: good luck. theres no lack of jobs out there.
[07:19] <Crazytom> have you blacklisted or deleted anything?
[07:19] <NDAKOTA> LeoNz, you don't need fwcutter
[07:19] <stanner> jpsamara: i looked at some online bench marks and your right. when running gcc or some video encoding taks you do get a preformance gain. However thats where the gains stop for the most part.
[07:20] <coldboot> How would you use find to find files modified between now and two days ago? I know you can use -mtime +x to determine what was modfied 2 days or more ago, but not the other way around...
[07:20] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: thats what i was just doing. thanks anyways for your help, and personally, i don't like icons mounted on the desktop anyways.
[07:20] <Crazytom> NDAKOTA, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear
[07:20] <LeoNz> i think i dleeted it already crazytom
[07:20] <stanner> -mtime -x?
[07:20] <stanner> i need some help with ext3 corruption
[07:20] <Crazytom> then go with NDAKOTA but if you still can't get it working after awhile then hit me up
[07:20] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie, me either. All I got on my desktop is the computer, documents folder and home folder. That's the way I like to keep it.
[07:20] <LeoNz> kk
[07:20] <bschroed> stanner: cool.  yeah i've tried x86_64 in the past without crashes and i was able to get by with a chroot but it was a pain to try to get some packages working (flash plugin, etc.)
[07:21] <LeoNz> Ndaktoa: im havin trouble installin ndiswrapper, im gettin errors after "sudo make isntall"
[07:21] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: lol lots of times i get lots of pictures collecting up on my desktop. i just throw them all in ~/Desktop/.shit/ until i can sort them out ;D
[07:21] <NDAKOTA> LeoNz, use the synaptic package manager to install ndiswrapper
[07:21] <Crazytom> LeoNz, sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
[07:21] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie: I got one of them too! It's .stuff! :D
[07:22] <stanner> bschroed: i was able to eventually get flas and java ect but not embeded video. also i had to run the 32 bit version of FF anyway so i didnt see the point since i dont do much compiling cept wine and x11vnc
[07:22] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie: Well I used to.... I tarred it up and encrypted it. Haven't touched it since.
[07:22] <louish> I'm trying to mount a smb mount but I get the following!  smbmnt must be installed suid root for direct user mounts (1000,1000).  I'm not sure what it means?

[07:27] <CountDown> Two weeks ago I could record audio using the Sound Recorder application that comes standard with Ubuntu, but trying the same thing now results in a silent recording.  I don't remember changing anything about my system except making the usual security updates.  Any ideas?
[07:27] <stanner> n-ice: when you plug in your usb flash drive what happens?
[07:27] <Epic720> I can't get Ubuntu 6.10 to install on my older pentium hp
[07:27] <NDAKOTA> LeoNz, just search for "ndiswrapper" in the search field, and check it for installation
[07:27] <Crazytom> LeoNz, just type this into a terminal sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
[07:27] <NDAKOTA> then click "install marked"
[07:28] <adorablepuppy> stanner: It's more fun to watch them writhe in pain after they've screwed up. :)
[07:28] <Epic720> Everytime I select to install my computer reboots
[07:28] <feba> CountDown, hate to be too obvious, but have you checked the mute switch on your mic?
[07:28] <Epic720> can anyone help me?
[07:28] <LeoNz> ok done
[07:28] <Yggdrasil> is there a way to change the icons on the desktop and menubar to on a single click ?
[07:28] <n-iCe> stanner nothing
[07:28] <Ali_ix> Epic720: you may try xubuntu as a lighter version. if it is related to resource limits
[07:28] <n-iCe> doesn't appear but with lsusb appear
[07:29] <kaitrek> Epic720 you mean, after you installed ubuntu from CD, and you start loading, right after GRUB, the PC reboots?
[07:29] <feba> Yggdrasil yes, lemme see if I can find it
[07:29] <NDAKOTA> the one synpatic provides is already compiled version for ubuntu, if you do it manually you'll have to compile it
[07:29] <Epic720> can I run all the same applications
[07:29] <stanner> adorablepuppy: hahah yeah but i cant not tell them to since i help alot of people in my dorm with it and one wants xgl the other wants big view and id rather not tell them "just reonstall to fix it" when something goes wrong
[07:29] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: clean desktop once more. OCD was going off the scale for the past little while.
[07:29] <Yggdrasil> feba im looking too
[07:29] <CountDown> feba: Yeah, I looked for something like that, but didn't find anything.  Where would you look?
[07:29] <Epic720> yes, right after I see it say "unpacking kernel"
[07:29] <LeoNz> ndakota i think i installed it
[07:29] <Nubbie> adorablepuppy: thanks for trying. have a good night.
[07:29] <adorablepuppy> stanner: I think gedit automagically makes a backup.
[07:29] <LeoNz> yeh i did
[07:29] <feba> Usually they're on the side of the headset or on the volume control
[07:29] <adorablepuppy> Nubbie: np. YHave a nice night.
[07:29] <kaitrek> yep, i have the same problem with ubuntu-server edition, :(
[07:30] <stanner> n-ice: if you run $  fdisk -l
[07:30] <Nubbie> gedit makes backups with a tilde (~) in the same folder as the original file.
[07:30] <n-iCe> wanna know the anser?
[07:30] <feba> Yggdrasil, open Nautilus
[07:30] <feba> then click edit -> preferences -> behavoir
[07:30] <kaitrek> looks like a bug in the release :/
[07:30] <stanner> adorablepuppy: yeah to like xorg.conf~ but what if he uses nano/vim
[07:30] <feba> and it's the first option
[07:30] <Epic720> I put the disk in, got the ubuntu install menu, selected the text mode and any other mode I could try.
[07:30] <bullgard4> stanner: In my Ubuntu 6.10 there are 3 check boxes: 'Show splash screen when logging in', 'Assertain when logging out', and 'save automatically changes of the session'. There is no check box 'save my session' as you stated.
[07:30] <adorablepuppy> I think he had a command like gksudo gedit goin. :O)\
[07:31] <Epic720> at first I was getting the "unknown interrupt or fault at EIP"
[07:31] <Epic720> now I am trying the alternative CD
[07:31] <n-iCe> stanner a lot of things...
[07:31] <stanner> well i didnt read it the firts time thats why when i resated it i quoted it
[07:31] <Yggdrasil> febu thanks
[07:31] <stanner> also there is the add button
[07:31] <NDAKOTA> if you have the windows bcm driver handy, try loading it using ndiswrapper
[07:31] <feba> np, enjoy
[07:31] <stanner> doesnt that let you save your session profile?
[07:32] <arooni> hey question about evolution:  does it offer auto complete on the TO field like outlook does?  (its not enabled by default)
[07:32] <Yggdrasil> eh feba even
[07:32] <Yggdrasil> thanks
[07:32] <kaitrek> Epic720 damn it.., did you say you could install it or you couldn't get ubuntu to load right after you installed it?
[07:32] <LeoNz> kk
[07:32] <stanner> n-ice: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and paste what it says when you run that command then give me the link
[07:32] <kaitrek> Epic720 damn it.., did you say you couldN'T install it or you couldn't get ubuntu to load right after you installed it?
[07:32] <Epic720> I coulnd not get it to install
[07:32] <feba> I don't mind being called Febu. Pretty much anything with "feb" in it is fine. I even named my PC Febuntu :p

[07:33] <kaitrek> ah diff. problem, i can't get it to run ubuntu cuz it just keeps restarting 0.5 seconds after GRUB begins loading the system
[07:33] <drcode> I am using program dvdrecord in console
[07:33] <n-iCe> stanner how can i paste it?
[07:33] <drcode> It can also burn files
[07:33] <n-iCe> is in other pc
[07:33] <drcode> not iso?
[07:33] <Epic720> so you can't help me?
[07:33] <feba> Is your hard drive corrupted?
[07:33] <kaitrek> no
[07:33] <feba> have you checked?
[07:33] <Epic720> is there anyone who can help me?
[07:33] <adorablepuppy> arooni: I dont think so, but the To button is a button that brings up your contact list.
[07:33] <stanner> n-ice: waht do you mean its in other pc?
[07:33] <arooni> adorablepuppy: is there anyway to have auto complete on any client?
[07:33] <arooni> thunderbird etc...
[07:33] <arooni> i live for that feature
[07:34] <bullgard4> stanner: May be but I do not know under what circumstances the changes will be saved.
[07:34] <Epic720> I am trying to install ubuntu 6.10 on an older HP computer, seconds after selecting "Install a server" my computer reboots
[07:34] <Epic720> can anyone help me?
[07:34] <stanner> bullgard4: if you click the thid check box, and you have aim open and FF open and you log back in, they should both open back up.
[07:34] <adorablepuppy> arooni: Dunno. I uninstalled my thunderbird. I use evolution. Though I only ever mail 3-4 people at a time.
[07:35] <n-iCe> stanner what other thing can mean? isn't in this pc is in other... in other room, how can i paste you the info i can't connect that pc t internet

[07:37] <feba> oh, well then

[07:37] <adorablepuppy> arooni: Acutally I'm wrong. It does have autocomplete.

[07:40] <adorablepuppy> arooni: You must have the person in your contacts. I don't think it'll go by the people you have gotten mail from.
[07:40] <n-iCe> stanner the usb is detected i just want a command like no idea, open /adv/usb/

[07:42] <stanner> that will atleast let you read it
[07:42] <feba> don_j: this is ubuntu you're talking about?
[07:42] <n-iCe> which one
[07:42] <don_j> feba: yes but with no gdm running
[07:42] <adorablepuppy> arooni: I'm not entirely sure you can. . .
[07:42] <arooni> sweet!!!!!! figured it out
[07:42] <feba> What's wrong with dhclient?
[07:43] <stanner> n-ice: which one what?
[07:43] <adorablepuppy> arooni: Really? What was it?
[07:43] <n-iCe> of the commands i need to use
[07:43] <n-iCe> both ?
[07:43] <arooni> adorablepuppy: view ==> preview ==> vertical view
[07:43] <stanner> yes
[07:43] <thadthudpucker> i have a palm treo 650 and would like to get it to open up in ubuntu so i can get the old contact list downloaded from it. any suggestions?
[07:43] <arooni> i love this view
[07:43] <don_j> feba: nothing. it's just that it doesnt autostart
[07:43] <n-iCe> how can i know my usbdevice ?
[07:43] <stanner> just replace <usbdevice> with sdb1 or sda1 or what ever it shows up as under fstab
[07:43] <n-iCe> let me see
[07:43] <stanner> not fstab i mean fdisk
[07:43] <adorablepuppy> arooni: I see. Well, glad you got it goin. :)
[07:44] <feba> don_j: I beleive there is a way to make things run automatically on boot. Google it- then just make something that says "run this"
[07:44] <Crazytom> !palm
[07:44] <ubotu> A good guide for setting up Palm devices is at http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/PalmOS-HOWTO.html#PC-CONNECT-USB
[07:44] <feba> bit of a dirty work around, but hey
[07:44] <Crazytom> !palm > thadthudpucker
[07:44] <stanner> need help with ext3/2 corruption
[07:44] <ndlovu> hi all. pastebin is complaining that I'm a spammer because I don't have JavaScript enabled; but JavaScript *is* enabled. Any ideas how to fix it?
[07:45] <feba> thadthudpucker: a Palm probably can't run Ubuntu...aside from hardware limitations, the point of a Palm is that it uses Palm OS, which means your contact list will likely not load in ubuntu, even if it does work
[07:45] <stanner> ndlovu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[07:45] <stanner> lol
[07:45] <n-iCe> stanner brb i will check
[07:45] <stanner> ok
[07:45] <ndlovu> stanner: that's what I'm using
[07:45] <stanner> ahh well shoot
[07:45] <stanner> lol
[07:45] <thadthudpucker> thanks!
[07:45] <stanner> google patesbin
[07:45] <stanner> lol
[07:46] <Epic720> I did the MD5 checksum and it came back the same.
[07:46] <ndlovu> "You appear to be spamming the pastebin. I hate spammers so I won't let you. If you're not attempting to spam, please enable javascript so you can pass the antispam check"
[07:46] <adorablepuppy> arooni: You can also schedule tasks by clicking the time, then double clicking a day. If you use the calendar anyway.
[07:46] <stanner> you using FF
[07:46] <ndlovu> stanner, yup
[07:46] <arooni> adorablepuppy: do you send email thru gmails smtp?
[07:46] <stanner> and have you tried quitting then opening
[07:47] <stanner> FF again?
[07:47] <Epic720> feba, the checksum was good. Can you help me?
[07:47] <adorablepuppy> arooni: No, I don't. I use my company's smtp. . .
[07:47] <don_j> could it be in some runlevel script that I have to do something to autostart dhclient3?
[07:47] <Epic720> btw, I just realized that I switched to 6.06 alternative CD
[07:47] <stanner> ndlovu: *that sentience did require 2 lines in case you were wondering*
[07:48] <stanner> lol
[07:48] <dyfrgi> Hi folks. I'm installing Edgy, and in the "install base system step", it freezes at 73% with the message "creating device files".
[07:48] <feba> Sorry epic, i've no idea ;/
[07:49] <adorablepuppy> Well all, it's been swell, but the swelling has gone down. I'm gonna get outta here. :D
[07:49] <Epic720> well thanks anyways
[07:49] <Steil> are there any bittorrent clients out that support encryption? (my network blocks torrent traffic)
[07:49] <ndlovu> stanner, :). yup. closed FF and reopened and it's still calling me a spammer
[07:49] <feba> dyfrgi: is the partition large enough?
[07:49] <dyfrgi> If I look at the output of ps ax in a shell, I see an apt-get process: apt-get -y --no-remove install lvm2
[07:49] <dyfrgi> feba: Yup, about 100GB.
[07:49] <feba> Steil:  i'm pretty sure utorrent does, but I don't think it has ubuntu support.
[07:49] <Epic720> can anyone help me, I have a celeron D HP computer that I am trying to install 6.06 on and it reboots before installation
[07:50] <dyfrgi> 99.8GB free, according to df.
[07:50] <feba> dyfrgi: How long have you let it sit there for?
[07:50] <stanner> " My father told me once 'if a guy calls you a horse once you call him a jerk, he calls you a horse twice you punch him in the mouth, he calls you a horse 3 times, well i guess its time to shop for a saddle'" lol
[07:50] <cables> Steil, I hear uTorrent runs well in Wine.
[07:50] <dyfrgi> feba: About 6 hours.
[07:50] <feba> hm
[07:50] <ndlovu> stanner, lol
[07:50] <dyfrgi> IIRC when I tried to run it manually before (chrooting into the target partition), I get an error about the media.
[07:50] <Supaplex> woo! time to get a hamster. http://thorgolucky.com/humor/Hamster_Fighting_Machine.jpg
[07:50] <dyfrgi> Saying "insert this disc".
[07:51] <Enselic`> How do I make sudo cat > /etc/foo work again?
[07:51] <don_j> /etc/network/interfaces lol
[07:51] <dyfrgi> And yes, the MD5 sum is correct.
[07:51] <arooni> man evolution is awesome!!!!!!!!
[07:51] <stanner> ndlovu: sorry but i have been waiting too long to pull that one out just right
[07:51] <Enselic`> arooni: no
[07:51] <stanner> lol
[07:51] <Supaplex> Enselic`: sudo su -c "cat > /etc/foo"
[07:51] <dyfrgi> Enselic`: You have to get into a shell as root. e.g. sudo -s
[07:51] <feba> dyfrgi: hm
[07:51] <arooni> Enselic`: oh noes?  what do you use?
[07:51] <bullgard4> stanner: What do you mean when saying: "and you have aim open"?
[07:51] <meq> anyone know how to get to the restricted drivers manager if its not under the system->administration menu
[07:51] <bschroed> Epic720: I was having similar problems.  are you installing ubuntu for x86_64 perchance?
[07:51] <Enselic`> arooni: Thunderbird, of course
[07:51] <dyfrgi> Supaplex's suggestion also works.

[07:51] <Epic720> no
[07:51] <Epic720> celeron D
[07:51] <Enselic`> dyfrgi: there is another way with 'tie' or something
[07:51] <stanner> bullgard4: gaim*
[07:51] <don_j> why the heck arent the startup steps runnin in parallel?
[07:52] <feba> dyfrgi: could be a bad file
[07:52] <bullgard4> stanner: ok. I will check.
[07:52] <stanner> aim does have a linux client but it is very old and i cant get it to work
[07:52] <Supaplex> Enselic`: the su is slightly redundant. maybe sh -c
[07:52] <feba> dyfrgi: have you tried a different disc, or just the one?
[07:52] <dyfrgi> feba: I've tried a different disc.
[07:52] <stanner> maybe the lot of CDs are bad?
[07:52] <Enselic`> Supaplex: hmm, there is a different way somehow
[07:52] <dyfrgi> feba: I've also checked the MD5 sum of the image and the disc itself against the MD5SUM file on the mirrors.
[07:52] <feba> stanner has a point dyfrgi, could be something wrong with the CD or CDROM
[07:53] <dyfrgi> And run the MD5 checker in the installer.
[07:53] <dyfrgi> Let me get the exact apt error.
[07:53] <feba> Well.
[07:53] <Epic720> feba: I have tried 3 different disks. Originally I was getting an error of "unknown interrupt or fault at EIP ...."
[07:53] <Enselic`> dyfrgi, Supaplex: recalled it now: tee
[07:53] <Supaplex> Enselic`: otherwise, the redirection runs as you. there's | sudo tee /etc/foo   but that'll output to stdout and write to foo. use -a to append.
[07:53] <feba> By chance, have either of you tried installing another form of linux and seeing if that works?
[07:54] <Supaplex> Enselic`: ahh. gmta.
[07:54] <stanner> dyfrgi: have you tried using the alternate install cd?
[07:54] <Enselic`> Supaplex: gmta?
[07:54] <Supaplex> !gmta
[07:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gmta - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:54] <dyfrgi> stanner: Already doing so.
[07:54] <Supaplex> Enselic`: great minds think alike
[07:54] <stanner> then have you tried the gui?
[07:54] <dyfrgi> stanner: No mouse on this system currently, so I have no choice there.
[07:54] <stanner> lol
[07:54] <Epic720> I had installed slackware 9. but 10 didn't work and neither did gentoo.
[07:54] <Epic720> or redhat
[07:54] <stanner> hmm
[07:54] <stanner> well
[07:54] <stanner> not true
[07:55] <Supaplex> ubotu: gmta is Great Minds Think Alike
[07:55] <stanner> you could use rat poison
[07:55] <dyfrgi> It's the same code in the backend anyway.
[07:55] <mzanfardino_> I've recently downloaded an mp4 video and I want to burn it to dvd.  Do I need to use transcode (as I would with an AVI file) to prep to burn?  Or is there another tool required?
[07:55] <Enselic`> Supaplex: oh :)
[07:55] <dyfrgi> I have no idea how to make ratpoison run in the installer, stanner.
[07:55] <Epic720> I really hate using win2k and IIS..... can anyone help me
[07:55] <carpediem> is there any chance that Ubuntu released a mysql-client that doesn't work.  It stopped working on all my machines simultaneously it seems.  But I can connect with mysql with JDBC fine.
[07:55] <stanner> and tech with tabs+enter and arrow keys, you could possibly run the gui installer?
[07:55] <dyfrgi> It starts up GNOME and sits there, awaiting input which it can never receive with the input devices I have attached.
[07:56] <bwatson> Question: I'm currently running Breezy Badger (2.6.12-10-386) but need to build some USB drivers under 2.6.19.2.  What's the best way to do this?  Do I need to completely upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu?
[07:56] <_Exile_> can any1 tell me how to get a damn IRC server going on my nix?
[07:56] <stanner> then launch a virtual terminal edit your xorg and remove the devices then hit ctr+alt+backspace
[07:56] <n-iCe> stanner doesn't work
[07:56] <n-iCe> can you tell me the usbs path?
[07:56] <gogeta> hi
[07:56] <dyfrgi> "Media change: please insert the disc labeled 'Ubuntu 6.10 _Edgy Eft_ - Release i386 (20061025.1)' into the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter
[07:56] <stanner> what usb path
[07:56] <dyfrgi> That's the error I get if I chroot /target /bin/bash and then run apt-get install lvm2
[07:57] <n-iCe> stanner yeah where can i see the usbs !
[07:57] <gogeta> i need to get to the console on the beta live cd init 3 and alt f1 does not work
[07:57] <dyfrgi> That's got to be what it's stalling on in the installer.
[07:57] <stanner> lol
[07:57] <stanner> its fdisk -l or sudo fdisk -l
[07:57] <n-iCe> :/
[07:57] <n-iCe> /1/2/3/4/5/usbs/her/the/info
[07:57] <n-iCe> like that
[07:57] <Madpilot> bwatson, yes - Breezy is about to end support, so it's a good time to upgrade to Dapper, and maybe even past Dapper to Edgy
[07:57] <genii> dyfrgi: open the file /etc/apt/sources.list   by: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list    then put a #   before the cdrom entry. exit and try again
[07:58] <dyfrgi> Huh. /cdrom/README.diskdefines gives me an I/O error.
[07:58] <gogeta> anyone
[07:58] <dyfrgi> genii: I tried that, but the installer clears out sources.list before doing anything.
[07:58] <Epic720> can anyone help me, I have a celeron D HP computer that I am trying to install 6.06 on and it reboots before installation
[07:58] <stanner> n-ice: speak in some what more well formed senticnes because its late and im just not getting what your sayng
[07:58] <n-iCe> stanner hahaha :)
[07:58] <n-iCe> i wanna now the location of the usbs
[07:58] <n-iCe> got it ?
[07:58] <gogeta> i need to get to the console on the live cd standerd metheds do not work
[07:58] <dyfrgi> genii: I added a network source line earlier and finished the install that way, but I had "not quite initialized" problems, like it not putting lvm into my initrd.
[07:59] <bwatson> Madpilot: I don't mind being unsupported, I just want to know how painful it is to upgrade?  Or, can I just swap out the kernel for this specific driver build?
[07:59] <gogeta> jeeez
[07:59] <stanner> Epic720: when it logs the gui?
[07:59] <Madpilot> bwatson, you can't "just swap out the kernel", and upgrading isn't that bad
[07:59] <dyfrgi> It also sends my monitor an incorrect frequency (48kHz / 85Hz to an LCD) when the bootsplash starts up.
[07:59] <stanner> loads*
[07:59] <Madpilot> ubotu, upgrade | bwatson
[07:59] <ubotu> bwatson: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:59] <genii> dyfrgi: Ah one of those catch-22 spots LOL
[08:00] <Epic720> it boots to the install screen for selecting different modes of installation, I choose install in text mode or install a server and it reboots
[08:00] <dyfrgi> I might be able to hack an install, but if I'm going to do that, I'll just install Gentoo. No point in using the easier-to-admin option if it's not actually easier to admin, especially when I'm already very familiar with Gentoo.
[08:00] <bwatson> Madpilot: one more thing.  Assuming I upgrade, can I choose the specific kernel version I mentioned (2.6.19-2)?
[08:00] <stanner> Epic720: you trying to do the server install?
[08:00] <Epic720> yes
[08:00] <dyfrgi> Maybe it's the drive. I'll try swapping that out.
[08:00] <stanner> is this going to be a server?
[08:00] <Epic720> yes
[08:01] <stanner> is it server hardware?
[08:01] <Epic720> no
[08:01] <stanner> run the alternate install cd
[08:01] <gogeta> the alt cd has text mode?
[08:01] <Epic720> I am
[08:01] <stanner> and it has a server mode?
[08:01] <Epic720> yes
[08:01] <stanner> since when?
[08:01] <Epic720> IDK
[08:01] <Madpilot> bwatson, 2.6.19 is too new for Dapper, or even Edgy - my Edgy install here is running 2.6.17-11 - Feisty will have a 2.6.19 kernel
[08:01] <erikja> !kubuntu
[08:01] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[08:01] <ndlovu> cups gave me a problem when I did an apg-get dist-upgrade from breezy (5.10) to dapper (6.06). Can someone please look at the problem message and my sources.list and see if you can see the problem? http://pastebin.ca/423487
[08:02] <gogeta> i can get to the console in the kubuntu live cd so i guess the alt installer
[08:02] <gogeta> cant
[08:02] <stanner> madpilot: no fiesty is running 2.6.20-* for the beta
[08:02] <dyfrgi> Edgy has a "commandline install" on the alternate at least, stanner, Epic720.
[08:02] <gogeta> what a pain i always cvcould befor
[08:02] <Epic720> edgy?
[08:02] <ndlovu> sudo apt-get install cups also doesn't work it seems
[08:02] <Madpilot> stanner, cool - good to know, I'm not following Feisty that closely
[08:02] <stanner> yes the one after
[08:02] <stanner> well im running it now
[08:02] <dyfrgi> Epic720: Ubuntu 6.10
[08:03] <dyfrgi> aka Edgy Eft.
[08:03] <gogeta> arg
[08:03] <stanner> and all i have to say is the alpha was good enough for install
[08:03] <snowpunk98> How do I run a command in mysql once im in the mysql shell
[08:03] <Epic720> not the alternative CD, but the regular server disc?
[08:03] <gogeta> all i needed to do was reconfigure xorg to make the live disk work
[08:03] <bwatson> Madpilot: one more question then.  Do upgrades need to happen sequentially (e.g. Dapper, to Edgy to Fiesty)?  Or can I jump from Breezy directly to Fiesty?
[08:03] <dyfrgi> I haven't used the server disc.
[08:03] <gogeta> but they removed the console threw alt f1
[08:03] <ypSami> how can I kill a process that is defunct?
[08:03] <gogeta> pain in the ass
[08:04] <stanner> Epic720: you seem to be trying to install Ubuntu Dapper Drak 6.06 LTS am i correct?
[08:04] <jpsamara> upgrades must be sequential
[08:04] <Madpilot> bwatson, sequentially. Or you could just reinstall right to Fiesty, if you don't mind reinstalling your apps afterward (assuming you have a seperate /home partition
[08:04] <ant-> ypSami : kill -15 pid
[08:04] <ypSami> thanks
[08:04] <mneptok> gogeta: that's only another X display. same as opening a terminal.
[08:04] <ant-> ypSami : if kill -15 doesnt work use kill -9
[08:04] <killermach> I cannot find module-assistant package to install.. how do I find the repository that has it?
[08:04] <ypSami> This is what I get for trying to run gtalk with wine
[08:04] <Epic720> the name of the ISO was ubuntu 6.06.1-alternate-i386.iso
[08:04] <mneptok> or, rather, another tty
[08:04] <jpsamara> but I prefer a cleanslate .. backup /home and reinstall
[08:04] <stanner> ok
[08:05] <bwatson> OK, thanks to all for your help!  I'm a bit of a Ubuntu/Debian newbie (if you couldn't tell).  But I'm liking it.  Thanks again.
[08:05] <gogeta> mneptok i was trying to insatlll xorg failed
[08:05] <stanner> you might want to try installing using the server version
[08:05] <stanner> or
[08:05] <gogeta> always does but noramaly i just run to console reconfiure and startx again
[08:05] <mneptok> gogeta: the alternate CD for text mode install has been required since Dapper
[08:05] <gogeta> hyy
[08:05] <Epic720> I am burning the desktop one now, I have tried both the server and alternate, but not yet the destop.
[08:05] <stanner> epicim prettsure the alt cd installs via text but installs a gui do you want a gui?
[08:06] <Epic720> IDC, I just want to get it to install
[08:06] <mneptok> gogeta: ctl-alt-bkspace
[08:06] <stanner> do you care about how long it is supported for?
[08:06] <Epic720> no
[08:06] <gogeta> dam netspits
[08:06] <Epic720> just as long as I can get it up and working
[08:06] <stanner> Try Edgy Eft then or 6.10
[08:07] <stanner> i mean 6.10 Edgy Eft
[08:07] <Epic720> ohh there is a memory test option.....
[08:07] <gogeta> as i was saying the live cd x failes couse it hates auto finding my ati so in the past i switch to a console reconfiged x manuly and resumed i cant now
[08:07] <catid> anyone know how to remove the coloring from openoffice impress documents?  i'd like to make them all have white background and just black text
[08:07] <temporaryname> quick question:  anyone know if there is anything like fluxbox for gnome (I'm a n00b)
[08:07] <stanner> catid: magic
[08:08] <ssaa> hello. i need some help please, the sound is not working on my laptop, whhat can i do?
[08:08] <catid> will you do it now?
[08:08] <stanner> teporaryname: fluxbox is a window manager.
[08:08] <stanner> gnome is a GUI
[08:09] <stanner> gnome uses by default metacity as its window manager
[08:09] <temporaryname> I just looked at some screen shots..  (been reading the edgy guide) and I really like the visual styles, getting tired of looking @ the same one all the time
[08:09] <stanner> metacity can be replace with something like fluxbox
[08:09] <temporaryname> oic
[08:09] <LeoNz> Anyone: "bcmwl5  invalid driver!" any reason?
[08:09] <stanner> fluxbox's site sais they lean more twords kde compatabilty though
[08:10] <dyfrgi> I'm sure you can run it with Gnome.
[08:10] <[Spooky] > Hm... No good music programs in Ubuntu...
[08:10] <stanner> it is
[08:10] <dyfrgi> WM/DE integration is overrated.
[08:10] <stanner> you can install throug the repos then selec it through the session manager at login
[08:10] <temporaryname> but isn't fluxbox for "x-whatever you call it" desktops only?
[08:11] <temporaryname> nm.. just noticed the above comment

[08:20] <covrigel> anyone got any ideas
[08:20] <Enselic`> The 'host name' of a server, has that anything to do with anything, or is it just a name/identifier?
[08:20] <Ali_ix> no
[08:20] <ardchoille> covrigel: Which command gives that problem?
[08:20] <covrigel> arcade any command
[08:20] <covrigel> it just goes back to the command problpt
[08:20] <lynucs> could anyone give me an advice on a xml plugin i could use with eclipse? which is the most used one?
[08:20] <LeoNz> Crazytom: yes im using edgy
[08:20] <bullgard4> Enselic`: Was your posting directed to me?
[08:20] <Crazytom> ok
[08:20] <ardchoille> Hmm.. Never seen that.
[08:21] <Enselic`> bullgard4: not until now :)
[08:21] <covrigel> ardchoille: I dont understand because I am not getting any error
[08:21] <covrigel> ardchoille: no output
[08:21] <ardchoille> covrigel: Yeah, that's weird.
[08:21] <Crazytom> LeoNz, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[08:21] <ant-> covrigel : what does /var/log/auth.log say
[08:21] <covrigel> ardchoille: is there a way to enable the root account without the command sudo?
[08:21] <Enselic`> covrigel: please don't
[08:21] <ardchoille> covrigel: Check what ant- posted.
[08:21] <LeoNz> crazytom: k
[08:22] <covrigel> I get premission denied
[08:22] <ant-> ouch
[08:22] <ardchoille> covrigel: Enabling the root account is not an option, IMHO
[08:22] <Crazytom> LeoNz, save this file to your desktop http://boredklink.googlepages.com/wl_apsta.o
[08:22] <covrigel> what can i do?
[08:22] <covrigel> thats my question
[08:22] <LeoNz> wait crazytom:
[08:22] <ant-> covrigel : have you tried gksu gedit /var/log/auth.log?
[08:22] <dealc_> I have a small problem.
[08:22] <kofler> I really hate rsync. I can't figure this out. See if someone here can help me out. I call rsync and here are the rules it displays as being added, and then the corresponding list of files it actually copies over. [client]  add_rule(+ /home/kofler/\..*) -> .file file
[08:23] <Crazytom> LeoNz, what?
[08:23] <ardchoille> covrigel: Could it be that you aren't in sudoers?
[08:23] <covrigel> sorry can't im in a server
[08:23] <covrigel> ssh
[08:23] <dyfrgi> There are certain things which can't be done without a root account. Ever tried to do a remote backup without a root account?
[08:23] <covrigel> that is a possibility
[08:23] <covrigel> how do i add myself
[08:23] <LeoNz> Crazytom: im gettin this thing sayin timestamp to far into the future
[08:23] <dealc_> I need a package called "courier-authmysql", Anyone have a copy?
[08:23] <ardchoille> dyfrgi: The root account is there, it's just disabled and there is no need to enable it.
[08:23] <LeoNz> Crazytom: maybe its still there
[08:23] <Crazytom> LeoNz, what do you mean?
[08:23] <kofler> Anyone?
[08:23] <LeoNz> yes its still there
[08:24] <ant-> you get a permissions error when your not a sudoers
[08:24] <LeoNz> crazytom: i installed it awhile ago
[08:24] <covrigel> i get no error ant-
[08:24] <ardchoille> ant-: Good point
[08:24] <Crazytom> LeoNz, installed what?
[08:24] <dyfrgi> ardchoille: My claim is that there is a reason to enable it, and that reason is remote backups.
[08:24] <covrigel> tmatei@server1:~$ sudo ls
[08:24] <covrigel> tmatei@server1:~$
[08:24] <covrigel> it just goes to the next line
[08:24] <LeoNz> Crazytom: the cutter
[08:24] <ant-> covrigel : have you tried gksu instead?
[08:25] <covrigel> dont have it installed
[08:25] <covrigel> its a server
[08:25] <covrigel> with no xwindow
[08:25] <ardchoille> dyfrgi: When in this channel, it's good to adhere to the recommended things. Enabling root is not one of those things.
[08:25] <ant-> oh, duh
[08:25] <ndlovu> I upgraded from 5.10 to 6.06 by changing breezy to dapper in my sources.list. now a lot of stuff (like synaptic) is missing from the menu system, and cups at least is broken. is it necessary to have ubuntu-desktop installed for the upgrade to work properly?
[08:25] <covrigel> ant- can i enable root account without sudo command?
[08:25] <LeoNz> Crazytom: The download isnt starting
[08:25] <dyfrgi> ardchoille: True, it's certainly not useful for most people. Point taken.
[08:25] <ant-> covrigel : nope
[08:25] <covrigel> ant- what can i do?
[08:25] <pavs> o !xinetd
[08:26] <Crazytom> ok go into synaptic and tell it to uninstall fwcutter
[08:26] <pavs>  !xinetd
[08:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xinetd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:26] <LeoNz> Crazytom: wait i got it
[08:26] <ardchoille> covrigel: I don't think you're going to get any help in here with enabling root.
[08:26] <covrigel> ardchoille what can i do? how can i fix this sudo problem
[08:26] <ant-> covrigel : i guess check forums for related problems, maybe a fix.. maybe a corrupt sudo, i dunno
[08:26] <Crazytom> LeoNz, ok let me know what your status is
[08:26] <ardchoille> covrigel: I don't know.
[08:26] <ant-> covrigel : i've broke my sudo before
[08:26] <pavs> whats xinetd?
[08:27] <covrigel> ant- how could i fix it?
[08:27] <preaction> pavs: a way to run a bunch of server daemons for the duration of a request, so they don't sit there chewing up memory and clock cycles
[08:27] <LeoNz> crazytom: well i completely removed fwcutter
[08:27] <ant-> covrigel : well at the time i was new and just did a clean install :(
[08:27] <kofler> Can someone help me with rsync?
[08:27] <kofler> It really makes no sense why it copies files that I don't tell it to copy.
[08:27] <thepumpkin1979> hi. how could I Clean all the files generated by ./autogen.sh for some proyect?
[08:27] <Crazytom> ok do this so we have a fresh install
[08:27] <Crazytom> LeoNz, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[08:28] <covrigel> i've already installed alot of applications and configured apache
[08:28] <bimberi> covrigel: booting into recovery mode gets you to a root shell, any fix can be applied there
[08:28] <pavs> preaction thanks
[08:28] <covrigel> bimberi thanks, i will try that
[08:28] <ant-> bimberi : good point
[08:28] <ardchoille> bimberi: good call
[08:28] <ant-> covrigel : but you still have to find out whats wrong with sudo
[08:28] <covrigel> bimberi I can't do it from here, but ya i will try it when im in front of the server
[08:28] <covrigel> i will try to reinstall it maybe
[08:29] <LeoNz> Crazytom: done
[08:29] <ant-> covrigel : i would search forums first
[08:29] <Crazytom> LeoNz, save this file to your desktop http://boredklink.googlepages.com/wl_apsta.o
[08:29] <bimberi> covrigel: kk, as to what the problem is - i'm mystified too :/
[08:29] <LeoNz> Crazytom: Done
[08:29] <covrigel> bimberi any other ideas that i can try now from SSH
[08:30] <Crazytom> LeoNz, sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware ~/Desktop/wl_apsta.o
[08:30] <LeoNz> done
[08:30] <LeoNz> Crazytom: done
[08:30] <Crazytom> LeoNz, sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r` ~/Desktop/wl_apsta.o
[08:30] <me2> i have a problem to set up Canon LBP 2900 USB printer ,help me
[08:30] <bimberi> covrigel: looking int /var/log/auth.log was a good one.  prolly need sudo though (heh)

[08:31] <Rayan> Hi All - Does anyone know of any Webcam recording software I can use on Ubuntu (Thats easy to install!! lol )

[08:31] <Crazytom> LeoNz, please join #ubuntuflak so you don't flood in here
[08:32] <drcode> hi all
[08:32] <drcode> what is best player in linux to play wmv,avi and so?
[08:33] <me2> drcode, can u help me?
[08:33] <drcode> yes
[08:33] <bimberi> covrigel: nothing rushes to mind.  When you try recovery mode, check that log, also try running visudo and make a trivial change to the file (eg. in a comment) and save it.  That will ensure the file is checked over.  Also make sure you're a member of the 'admin' group
[08:33] <covrigel> any other ideas guys? that i can try from ssh?
[08:33] <Rayan> drcode - VLC's good
[08:33] <covrigel> hmm
[08:33] <Rayan> Hi All - Does anyone know of any Webcam recording software I can use on Ubuntu (Thats easy to install!! lol )
[08:33] <drcode> how can I tell evolution to play in vlc?
[08:33] <magez> mplayer is good too
[08:34] <Crazytom> how do i turn off kicking people for flooding in another channel?
[08:34] <me2> drcode, i have problem to set up canon 2900 LBP USP printer
[08:34] <Rayan> drcode - just ask it nicely and say please
[08:34] <Rayan> joking
[08:34] <bimberi> Crazytom: use #flood
[08:34] <drcode> please
[08:34] <drcode> me2 U need cups
[08:34] <drcode> to config printer
[08:34] <drcode> I have a frind with same printer
[08:35] <Crazytom> bimberi, the channel?
[08:35] <dyfrgi> Looks like it was the CD-ROM drive.
[08:35] <drcode> btw: cannon dosnt support linux (I have email them also about cannon 2000)
[08:35] <drcode> Rayan,  ?
[08:35] <ant-> covrigel : the su -c <command> <loginname> will run command for you maybe
[08:35] <bimberi> Crazytom: yes, i'm guessing the normal flood kicking rules are less stringent in there
[08:35] <Rayan> Hi Drcode
[08:35] <me2> drcode, where can i find CUPs
[08:36] <dyfrgi> bimberi: I think that Crazytom means turn off floodkicking in his client.
[08:36] <Crazytom> i just made up a channel and then i kicked a guy i told to flood
[08:36] <drcode> how can I please change evolution player to vlc?
[08:36] <JLXL> has anyone used bittorrent before,  I haven't.  I need some info about what I'm doing..  When I click on the link in the gnome menu and it says to find a metafile.  where can I find that.  I want to d/l the feisty cd.
[08:36] <dyfrgi> Crazytom: Ask in #xchat

[08:36] <Crazytom> thanks
[08:37] <bimberi> dyfrgi: ah, kk
[08:37] <covrigel> ant- it gives me authentication failure
[08:37] <mzanfardino_> what might be a suitable channel to ask dvd authoring questions?  Specifically, what tool should be used to burn an MP4 to DVD... or better yet to recode the MP4 into something suitable for the TV?
[08:37] <Madpilot> JLXL, you need to get the .torrent file from one of the Ubuntu download sites
[08:38] <Madpilot> JLXL, that's the 'metafile' that gnometorrent is asking for
[08:38] <badserii> is there an official Ubuntu Presentation ?
[08:38] <dillon> hello
[08:38] <JLXL> thanks madpilot.
[08:39] <Crazytom> mzanfardino_, if you find out let me know
[08:39] <ant-> covrigel : i dunno what else to say...
[08:39] <dillon> im trying to install a lucent technologies wavelan wireless card how do i do it?
[08:39] <bimberi> badserii: there's one in the Examples folder of every install.  Official?  Not sure.
[08:39] <covrigel> thanks alot guys, g2g but i'll keep this in mind
[08:40] <ant-> atleast thats an error
[08:40] <Rayan> Hi All - Does anyone know of any Webcam recording software I can use on Ubuntu (Thats easy to install!! lol )
[08:40] <cX-kads> How do I upgrade from edgy to feisty using the live cd? I have two partions on is / and the othere is /home I want to keep /home unchanged and all my programs installed
[08:40] <mkquist> anyone have experience setting up music server? what file system should the storage drive be formatted with?
[08:41] <cX-kads> mkquist: what music server do u have
[08:42] <mkquist> well, at the mo, none, looking (in process) of setting up headless server to stream to stereo system, but want to be able to access it from other machines and xsfer files
[08:42] <mzanfardino_> Crazytom: I just can't seem to find any info on MP4 recoding.  I know that I can likely burn the MP4 to a CD or DVD and have it play in my DVD player, but it's been encoded to such a small image that I'm afraid the results will be poor.
[08:43] <mzanfardino_> Crazytom: I was hoping I could use transcode as I've done with AVI files to create two separate files: the video and the audio tracks.  Then just burn them as I would any other DVD
[08:43] <mkquist> cX-kads - just wanna be able to add to it from windows machine, like transfer music over to it
[08:43] <cX-kads> mkquist: I use a raw filesystem for my music server
[08:43] <mzanfardino_> Crazytom: but I can't seem to find anything to recode the MP4...
[08:43] <cX-kads> mkquist: that works fine with a virtual music server
[08:43] <Crazytom> mzanfardino_, i'm assuming you're trying to do something with itunes video?
[08:44] <dyfrgi> mkquist: I like ext3 on LVM, though I had some issues with expanding an ext3 filesystem recently.
[08:44] <cX-kads> mkquist: do u wanna stream music?
[08:44] <mkquist> cX-kads - yes
[08:44] <cX-kads> mkquist: if not u just need a server with a ftp server and windows can download from i
[08:45] <cX-kads> mkquist: do u want it to act as NAS
[08:45] <me2> draky, can u help me to setup printer canon LBP 2900 USB
[08:45] <cX-kads> How do I upgrade from edgy to feisty using the live cd? I have two partions on is / and the othere is /home I want to keep /home unchanged and all my programs installed
[08:45] <n-iCe> can any one tell me the difference between a normal cd and a alternate cd ??
[08:45] <mkquist> cX-kads - want to stream internet radio, but thought since im setting it up, then i might as well do more w/it. not sure on the NAS part, guess I'll have to think this thru a bit more
[08:46] <bimberi> !alternate | n-iCe
[08:46] <ubotu> n-iCe: 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.
[08:46] <billy> n-iCe: alternate = install only.
[08:46] <mkquist> cX-kads - but what is a raw filesystem? if u will....
[08:46] <draky> me?
[08:46] <draky> um, I can try
[08:46] <bimberi> cX-kads: you need the alternate cd to upgrade using cd
[08:46] <cX-kads> bimberi: thx
[08:46] <bimberi> yw
[08:47] <cX-kads> mkquist: I use a virtual server
[08:47] <LeoN1> hi
[08:47] <n-iCe> ok but have graphic interface dsktop ?
[08:47] <robokop> is there a command that just prints cpuload and exits?
[08:47] <n-iCe> or everything is text ?
[08:47] <cX-kads> mkquist: It runs inside of ubuntu and reads all my music for a .img file in raw format
[08:47] <mzanfardino_> Crazytom: no. I've found a site with a tv program thats been encoded as mp4.  I've downloaded the mp4 and it plays just fine on my PC. I want to be able to watch it on my TV though...
[08:47] <mkquist> cX-kads - im assuming that if it is to act as a NAS then it would need fat or ntfs?
[08:47] <cX-kads> mkquist: no
[08:47] <cX-kads> mkquist: it can be ext3 or reiserfs with samba on the machine
[08:47] <mkquist> cX-kads - so other os can still read it no matter what filesystem?
[08:47] <cX-kads> mkquist: Samba
[08:48] <cX-kads> mkquist: do u want to stream music on the network or outside the network
[08:48] <n-iCe> billy ?
[08:48] <mkquist> cX-kads - so w/Samba running other OS can access the files too? and stream to stereo
[08:48] <n-iCe> bimberi ?
[08:49] <cX-kads> mkquist: ok NAS is to access the files directly not streams
[08:49] <billy> n-iCe: yes?
[08:49] <draky> me2: I'm still fairly new as well, but if you go to System -> Administration -> Printing, you can set up a new printer, or try
[08:49] <bimberi> n-iCe: alternate cd is text-only
[08:49] <mkquist> cX-kads - right, so file system doenst matter then? for instance if windows machine wants to access files?
[08:49] <draky> but beyond that someone that's more knowledgable would have to help
[08:49] <n-iCe> no desktop !?!?
[08:49] <cX-kads> mkquist: for streams any music player like rhythmbox on any OS can
[08:49] <bimberi> n-iCe: sorry
[08:50] <cX-kads> mkquist: yes, using samba (this is for on the network downloads)
[08:50] <billy> n-iCe: the installer isn't what i'd call pure CLI. It is a bit graphical.  don't be put off.
[08:50] <robokop> is there a command that just prints cpuload and exits?
[08:50] <bimberi> n-iCe: misunderstood your question. both CDs can be used t oinstall a desktop environment
[08:50] <TheLance> hey is there a way i can activate the scroll lock button so it'll do something?
[08:50] <mkquist> cX-kads - ty, sounds like my answer then ext3 or reiserfs
[08:50] <TheLance> i have one of those light up keyboards
[08:50] <n-iCe> i mean billy when the installation finish is a desktop like normal ubuntu ?
[08:50] <arooni> how can i update my subversion client?
[08:50] <arooni> on linux
[08:50] <TheLance> that doesn't work too well without the scroll lok
[08:50] <cX-kads> mkquist: wait, do u want ppl to only hear the music, not download it?
[08:51] <billy> n-iCe: yes.  alternate cd only lacks liveCD capability.
[08:51] <dyfrgi> mkquist: Those filesystems both work fine. So would XFS.
[08:51] <n-iCe> How can install a graphical mode?
[08:51] <mkquist> cX-kads - prob both, although the original idea was to just get it to stream to stereo system, but i figure if im gonna set it up, then might as well just use it as music server too
[08:51] <dyfrgi> mkquist: I have found that ext3 is more stable than the other two, but XFS and ReiserFS are easier to expand if you want to make the filesystem larger later.
[08:52] <billy> n-iCe: to install through GNOME, you'll have to have a liveCD.  alternative CD's installer is just as easy though.
[08:52] <mkquist> cX-kads - 500 gig seemed like the best price, so i guess itll be NAS too
[08:52] <cX-kads> mkquist: yep go with ext3 with samba or proFTP server and gstreamer or vlc streaming
[08:52] <dyfrgi> mkquist: However, which one you choose is immaterial to your goal of creating a file/audio server.
[08:52] <mkquist> cX-kads - old amdk62... lol gets put back to work now
[08:52] <n-iCe> look billy i have the alternate xubuntu cd, if i install it i don't going to se a desktop? just like a terminal?!?!
[08:53] <dyfrgi> n-iCe: Once you install, you'll have the usual Ubuntu software, including Gnome.
[08:53] <mkquist> cX-kads - thanks for the info
[08:53] <cX-kads> mkquist: Samaba will cover NAS for the network, FTP will cover downloads for ppl outside of network
[08:53] <billy> n-iCe: you'll have a nice desktop if you use the xubuntu alternative CD.
[08:53] <n-iCe> thank you that's :)
[08:53] <n-iCe> let me check it
[08:54] <dyfrgi> The normal ubuntu alternative CD also installs desktop software.
[08:55] <rwoodward> Hello, I'm very new to Ubuntu and Linux in general.  I am trying to get DeVeDe running, but it keeps prompting that vcdimager is missing.  Can someone help?
[08:55] <romeo_rulez> can anyone help me on how to connect my wireless usb thing in ubuntu...
[08:55] <billy> !info vcdimager
[08:55] <cX-kads> rwoodward: did u install DeVeDe from the repositories?
[08:56] <ubotu> vcdimager: A VideoCD (VCD) image mastering and ripping tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.7.23-3 (edgy), package size 514 kB, installed size 1000 kB
[08:56] <billy> rwoodward: you're using Edgy?
[08:56] <rwoodward> cX-kads: Yes, and then used Synaptic to reinstall it.  Still the same problem.
[08:56] <cX-kads> billy: is there a way to make kvcd images with DeVeDe?
[08:56] <rwoodward> billy: yes
[08:56] <cX-kads> rwoodward: sudo apt-get install vcdimager
[08:57] <billy> rwoodward: if DeVeDe requires vcdimager, try installing it.  `sudo apt-get install vcdimager`
[08:58] <billy> cX-kads: i dunno.  haven't worked with it.
[08:58] <rwoodward> cX-kads: I get this error:  Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[08:58] <Crazytom> romeo_rulez, what's the problem
[08:59] <billy> rwoodward: do you have synaptic open?
[09:00] <rwoodward> Ibilly: I did.  Just closed it.  Should I try the command again?
[09:00] <cX-kads> rwoodward: yes
[09:00] <billy> rwoodward: yes.
[09:00] <rwoodward> billy:  Never mind... it worked that time.
[09:00] <somafm> anyone know how to run gproftpd as root from the Applications menu, instead of having to use the cli to run it every time?
[09:01] <Gnuyen> where can i get a list of all the packages that are installed by default by a desktop installation?
[09:01] <billy> rwoodward: suhweet.
[09:01] <Gnuyen> i think i'm missing a few
[09:01] <Gnuyen> and want to apt-get them all
[09:01] <rwoodward> billy and cX-kads, thanks!  DeVeDe came right up!
[09:02] <cX-kads> ok
[09:02] <billy> Gnuyen: ubuntu desktop?  or kubuntu, etc?
[09:02] <JLXL> madpilot, if you're still here, I have the bittortent meta file loaded now in the window and it's just sitting there and doesn't appear to be downloading.
[09:03] <Madpilot> JLXL, which .torrent?
[09:03] <JLXL> ubuntu-7.04-beta-alternate-amd64.iso.torrent
[09:03] <Gnuyen> ubuntu desktop
[09:03] <carlesoriol> how can i redirect the output of an already running process to my terminal?
[09:04] <billy> cat the file to which it's outputted?
[09:04] <Madpilot> JLXL, give it a few minutes, torrents are often slow to start for me. It might be that there's no-one else peering it, though.
[09:05] <JLXL> ok
[09:06] <carlesoriol> billy: no file, I want to get the stdio
[09:07] <billy> carlesoriol: i don't know.
[09:09] <robokop> is there a command that just prints cpuload and exits?
[09:09] <dyfrgi> robokop: dstat might be able to do it.
[09:10] <dyfrgi> robokop: You can also parse /proc/loadavg directly.
[09:11] <robokop> dyfrgi: /proc/loadavg are 5 numbers what do they mean
[09:12] <cafuego_> 1 5 15min load, active/idle
[09:13] <cafuego_> th final number is the last processid that started (I think)
[09:13] <dyfrgi> That, or it's the process ID of the reader. That'd be an odd choice, though.
[09:13] <robokop> cafuego_: thanks
[09:14] <robokop> i'm not verry good with sed, can sb give me help how to filter them out
[09:15] <robokop> sorry meant last two numbers
[09:15] <librano> hello everybody
[09:15] <robokop> active/idle and the processid
[09:15] <librano> i need some help with setting my cpu frequency scaling...
[09:16] <cafuego_> awk '{print $1 " " $2 " " $3}' < /proc/loadavg
[09:16] <cafuego_> cut -d ' ' -f 1-3 < /proc/loadavg
[09:17] <librano> I want it so that my cpu is set to conservative governor as soon as i boot up
[09:17] <robokop> cafuego_:  thanks again
[09:17] <librano> what config file should i edit and what changes should I make
[09:17] <robokop> never used awk always worked with sed and hated to debug that, but awk is more easy for this
[09:18] <librano> any help would be appreciated
[09:18] <papillon> i have some troubles with antidote Rx. Any help
[09:19] <librano> anybody?
[09:20] <atiredmachine> Hello, I'm trying to change my /home/ folder to a new partition I just created.  I can't seem to figure out the partition label (something like hd3?).
[09:20] <papillon> i wanna fix antidote Rx. Any help
[09:21] <atiredmachine> nevermind
[09:21] <pingpongboss> what's the fastest way to convert a MKV video file into a AVI file?
[09:21] <pingpongboss> I tried looking up documentation on mencoder but it's way dam confusing and slow :(
[09:22] <gordonjcp> pingpongboss: converting video *is* slow
[09:22] <papillon> ok so no one know Antidote Rx
[09:22] <pingpongboss> gordonjcp, slower than playing them even? o_o
[09:23] <gordonjcp> pingpongboss: massively so
[09:23] <pingpongboss> ;_;
[09:23] <gordonjcp> pingpongboss: encoding video is a very slow process
[09:23] <gordonjcp> it's much harder to compress than uncompress
[09:23] <pingpongboss> gordonjcp, dang. guess i just have to wait it out then. thx
[09:24] <librano> can anyone help with the cpu freq question above?
[09:25] <masa> I'm trying to install xwine, it did load some time and then the installer disappeared, now it says it can't run two installers at the same time but there is no other installators working. I already tried to reboot computer but still it says there is other installation going
[09:27] <ndlovu> can modified conf files cause dependency problems during a system upgrade? I have a modified cupsd.conf file and now cups is giving me dependency problems upgrading from breezy to dapper
[09:28] <gordonjcp> pingpongboss: yup, you do ;-)
[09:28] <gordonjcp> pingpongboss: video codecs are designed so it's easy to uncompress at the expense of being difficult to compress
[09:28] <gordonjcp> pingpongboss: because, you generally want to play back a lot more than you want to compress
[09:29] <preaction> pingpongboss: but converting an MKV to an AVI shouldn't take much, since you're not doing any real encoding. you're just changing the container.
[09:29] <pingpongboss> gordonjcp, right. are u familiar with mencoder?
[09:29] <librano> video encoding takes long in windows too...
[09:29] <finalbeta> Playback has to be real time, encoding doesn't. So that allows them to do what gordonjcp said.
[09:29] <pingpongboss> preaction, really? plz tell me how x] 
[09:29] <preaction> pingpongboss: i don't know how on linux, i always used vdub and the gknot utils on windows
[09:29] <dyfrgi> masa: Presumably it created some files, maybe in ~/.xwine
[09:29] <pingpongboss> I just need to put it into an AVI file so i can play it on my zen vision
[09:30] <preaction> pingpongboss: i'm pretty sure that there's a set of mkv tools for linux to demux the streams, then you just need an avi muxer
[09:30] <pingpongboss> preaction, lol i have no clue what u just said there
[09:30] <pingpongboss> preaction, but i'll look into it
[09:30] <librano> check out kino as well..
[09:30] <librano> i'm not sure  what it does but its a video editing tool
[09:31] <pingpongboss> librano, k
[09:31] <preaction> pingpongboss: demux means to extract the audio and video (and maybe subtitle, etc...) components into separate files. mux means... well you get the idea
[09:31] <pingpongboss> preaction, ic
[09:32] <librano> can anybody help with cpu frequency settings?
[09:32] <cherva> can someone advice me a very simple ftp server like "quick and easy ftp server" for windows i need it to minimize to try and just look who tries to connect to it. Not to use it as an actual server
[09:33] <ndlovu> pingpongboss, you might get some useful stuff from http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/MMM/Tools_and_Equipment/Linux_in_film_production
[09:33] <gordonjcp> pingpongboss: a bit
[09:33] <preaction> pingpongboss: doom9.org has useful stuff too
[09:33] <ndlovu> pingpongboss, there's a section on file conversion tools you could look at
[09:33] <preaction> !ftpd | cherva
[09:33] <ubotu> cherva: FTP servers: !ftpd, !proftpd, !pure-ftpd, !twoftpd, !vsftpd - Graphical front-ends: !PureAdmin, !GProftpd (for !GNOME), !KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP
[09:33] <pingpongboss> sweet. thx for links
[09:33] <librano> cherva, are u using any ftp server now?
[09:34] <cherva> ubotu: 10x
[09:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 10x - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:34] <cherva> thx
[09:34] <steel_lady> Hi! I have problem that when trying to transfer some files, I get 0 length files. anyone can tell me why?
[09:34] <pingpongboss> ndlovu, do u konw if any of hte programs mentioned has a GUI?
[09:35] <valehru> Hey guys, I want to get the HP-Toolbox installed, it relies on python-qt3.  When I try and install it I get:  python-qt3: Depends: python (< 2.5) but 2.5-0ubuntu6 is to be installed
[09:35] <SeveredCross> valehru: Try apt-get -f install
[09:35] <SeveredCross> Err, sudo apt-get -f install
[09:35] <SeveredCross> That may help you out..
[09:35] <phire> hey, How can I edit my fstab to make allow a vfat partition to be mounted and edited by anyone, without sudo?
[09:35] <ndlovu> pingpongboss, afraid I don't know; you'll have to check them out
[09:35] <valehru> SeveredCross, is it wise to force an installation?
[09:35] <hole_> anyone here got quake3 running on ubuntu
[09:36] <pingpongboss> wow... i just realized
[09:36] <SeveredCross> Eh, probably not, though I seem to recall hp-toolbox being stubborn and having to do that when I installed it myself.
[09:36] <pingpongboss> think htere's something wrong with the command i'm using..
[09:36] <pingpongboss> it keeps saying Too many audio packets in the buffer
[09:36] <pingpongboss> and exiting
[09:36] <pingpongboss> ><
[09:36] <valehru> hmm...
[09:36] <pingpongboss> arg. stupid mencoder :)
[09:36] <valehru> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[09:36] <valehru> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[09:36] <valehru> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[09:36] <valehru> or been moved out of Incoming.
[09:36] <valehru> Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
[09:37] <valehru> the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
[09:37] <valehru> that package should be filed.
[09:37] <valehru> The following information may help to resolve the situation:
[09:37] <valehru> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[09:37] <valehru>   python-sip4: Depends: python (< 2.5) but 2.5-0ubuntu6 is to be installed
[09:37] <valehru> sorry for flodding.
[09:38] <steel_lady> pleaseeee
[09:38] <phire> never mind, worked it out
[09:39] <librano> i need some help with cpu frequency settings... can anyone help?
[09:39] <steel_lady> anyone here so good to give me a hand?
[09:40] <Ali_ix> ywhta is problem
[09:40] <librano> what problem do u have steel_lady
[09:40] <Ali_ix> *what
[09:40] <steel_lady> in various situations I get 0 length files
[09:40] <mwe> valehru: you probaby messed up sources.list
[09:41] <steel_lady> first my friend tried to trensfer the file to me by messenger. it starts and breaks after some kb
[09:41] <steel_lady> then I tried to dl it from mail
[09:41] <seamus7> Hi... I want to try out XFCE (xubuntu) .. i'm using Gnome on Edgy Eft ... will installing xubuntu-desktop interfere with my current Gnome configuration and is Xubuntu easy to completely uninstall?
[09:41] <steel_lady> I got 0 length
[09:41] <pingpongboss> seamus7, i'd think it should be if u used aptitude instead of apt-get
[09:41] <Ali_ix> seamus7: yes, easy to install via apt-get or synaptic
[09:41] <steel_lady> then I tried to convert one video from flv to mpeg online and when i try to dl converted 0 length again
[09:42] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: you may have some problem with your intenet connection.
[09:42] <seamus7> I wonder if there's a xubuntu install option that install only a minimal set of packages???
[09:42] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: try to download some thing directly by wget
[09:42] <steel_lady> Ali_ix but I tried to do it many times, it would succeed once, no?
[09:43] <steel_lady> like what?
[09:43] <seamus7> Do any of you run XFCE and Gnome??
[09:43] <steel_lady> ok, I put the link from youtube and it converts to mpeg and pops up to dl. what can I do?
[09:44] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: any DIRECT http download i mean
[09:44] <ypSami> is there a way to disable desktop icons with edgy?
[09:44] <Traveler> are there daily builds of alternativ cd for feisty ?
[09:44] <valehru> awe, you were right....restored the default synaptic package list...seems fine now..
[09:44] <valehru> thx
[09:44] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: just try this in terminal wget -c DOWNLAOD_URL
[09:44] <fazzi> max jut leute
[09:44] <Ali_ix> ypSami: your desktop is a nautilus, try prefrences for nautilus
[09:45] <ypSami> thanks
[09:45] <librano> i need some help with cpu frequency settings... can anyone help?
[09:46] <fazzi> some dummy question "how to quit bitchx ?
[09:46] <mwe> librano: please elaborate
[09:46] <librano> finally :-)
[09:46] <fazzi> i am lost in qwertz
[09:46] <Ali_ix> fazzi: what is bitchx? you can kill any procces using kill PID command in terminal
[09:46] <mwe> librano: usually it clocks up when it's busy and vica versa
[09:47] <valehru> is there a way I can restore the the cups packages to the original configurations?
[09:47] <librano> i would like to have my computer set to a conservative cpu freq profile on boot..
[09:47] <samu2> How can I make the gnome-terminal maximize automatically when I run it?
[09:47] <librano> yes i know... but i think it was after i ran dpkg-reconfig on acpi or acpid n now when it boots its at full throttle and performance profile
[09:48] <eck> samu2: use something like devilspie
[09:48] <samu2> You can't do it without extra tools?
[09:48] <pingpongboss> attempting to encode a mkv file with avidemux. hope i works ><
[09:48] <librano> mwe,  any ideas?
[09:49] <eck> no, because it is controlled by the window manager
[09:49] <mwe> librano: Well are you using powernowd?
[09:49] <eck> i think you can change the default geometry
[09:49] <librano> what file should i edit to have it boot in the profile i want
[09:49] <librano> mwe, yes..
[09:49] <amicrawler> is there a reason that stream tuner can not record any more ?
[09:49] <samu2> Yeah but I was thinking there would be some gnome option...
[09:50] <librano> i can set the freq i want using the cpufreq-select under sudo
[09:50] <ryukent> Any one a SCIM user?
[09:50] <amicrawler> the shell comes up for a  sec then goes off
[09:50] <amicrawler> is there a reason that stream tuner can not record any more ?
[09:50] <amicrawler> the shell comes up for a  sec then goes off
[09:50] <amicrawler> will not record any more
[09:50] <Ali_ix> !repeat | amicrawler
[09:50] <ubotu> amicrawler: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[09:51] <librano> mwe: so i am sure it works... i just have to edit the config files... and i am not sure which one it is... dont want to break anything
[09:51] <mwe> librano: it's running but doesn't work as expected? or would you like a static low freq?
[09:51] <amicrawler> any ways  i got my mac mini working
[09:51] <AzMoo> Hey, I'm having a problem with my packages. Every time I try and install something it tells me that 'python-uno: Depends: openoffice.org-core (= 2.0.4-0ubuntu4) but 2.0.4-0ubuntu5 is to be installed'. It says the solution is to run 'sudo apt-get -f install' which I do, but that fails when it attempts to upgrade the python-uno package. Does anybody know what I can do to fix this? I haven't been able to add or remove anything in days :\
[09:51] <amicrawler> i run linux on it now
[09:51] <amicrawler> mac os  is pissing me off very badly
[09:52] <seamus7> hi .. should i expect any (even minor) problems from installing two desktop managers (gnome and kde or xfce)? should i expect my menus to be corrupted in each or if i uninstall one of the desktop managers later, will it cleanly uninstall?
[09:52] <amicrawler> very slow and hangs all the time
[09:52] <librano> mwe: right now when i boot the profile is max freq and governor is performance... i want the conservative governor to be the default when i boot...
[09:52] <amicrawler> must run
[09:52] <steel_lady> Ali_ix I tried to dl and I got:  Resolving tc1.vixy.net... 222.225.235.112  Connecting to tc1.vixy.net|222.225.235.112|:80... connected.  HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 400 Bad Request  08:50:52 ERROR 400: Bad Request.
[09:52] <AzMoo> seamus7, I have gnome+beryl and xfce and haven't had any problems with my window manager.
[09:53] <mwe> librano: then I don't think powernowd is running. it should set it to userspace I believe
[09:53] <dyfrgi> AzMoo: Try removing openoffice.org-core and python-uno and reinstalling them.
[09:53] <somafm> for proftp, if I dont use a "group" should i erase the default entry in the conf file that says "group nobody"?
[09:53] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: did you tried an direct and not session based download url?
[09:53] <AzMoo> dyfrgi, I can't remove anything, because it always comes up with the same thing, telling me to run sudo apt-get -f install.
[09:53] <librano> mwe: oh... let me check my services
[09:53] <eck> AzMoo: you can also just pin the package at whatever version it is currently at, see the man page for apt_preferences
[09:53] <eck> and file a bug of course
[09:54] <seamus7> azmoo: i have gnome+beryl and want to play around with xfce ... did you just install the basic xubuntu-desktop or is there a minimalist version like there is for kubuntu? I wonder.
[09:54] <steel_lady> I tried that converted video
[09:54] <Ali_ix> :|
[09:54] <dyfrgi> AzMoo: Use dpkg to remove them, then.
[09:54] <dyfrgi> AzMoo: dpkg -r python-uno openoffice.org-core
[09:54] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: try this one for test: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-alternate-amd64.iso
[09:55] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: wget -c http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-alternate-amd64.iso
[09:55] <mwe> librano: Personally I just diabled powernowd and set the governor to ondemand. It works well for me.
[09:55] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: and see if it fails or...
[09:55] <AzMoo> eck, dyfrgi, thanks. I'll give them a go.
[09:55] <steel_lady> Ali it works
[09:55] <cmatheson> i just untarred firefox from the mozilla foundation (apparently that is the only way that the vmware plugin can work).  when i try to start firefox it segfaults though.  is this a known issue?
[09:56] <librano> mwe: i am on an acer laptop with sempron proc and it gets hot quit quickly if its runs at full throttle for abt 5 mins...
[09:56] <librano> goes to 80-90 degrees
[09:56] <urbanp00r> would apt-get remove openoffice* will remove all openoffice related installated files?
[09:56] <librano> degrees C that is
[09:56] <mwe> librano: yeah that's hot
[09:56] <Tomcat_> urbanp00r: Add --purge to remove configs as well
[09:57] <caustic> can anyone point me in the right direction for adjusting screen resolutions? I have an ATI X1300 vid card and have fglrx installed, I ran the line aticonfig ==resolution=0,1600x1200 etc, it shows up in xorg.conf but I can't select it in System->Preferences->Screen Resolution.  Suggestions?
[09:57] <mwe> librano: so you don't want it to clock to full speed at any time?
[09:57] <steel_lady> Ali_ix what now?
[09:57] <urbanp00r> Tomcat_:  that's not on the manual.. hehehe.. but what if i have already throw off the command?
[09:57] <willskills> caustic try it again - I just had to do it twice
[09:58] <willskills> to get my tv to display properly
[09:58] <librano> mwe: yes, i want it to run at the lowest freq 800mhz and ondemand to scale to 1600mhz
[09:58] <Tomcat_> urbanp00r: "throw off the command"? What do you mean?
[09:58] <librano> i can do that from cammand line but i want it to happen when i boot up..
[09:58] <urbanp00r> i have already issued the command "apt-get remove openoffice"
[09:59] <eck> cmatheson: i think that mozilla statically compiles their version of firefox so i am surprised that it segfaults, but you might be able to run it through something like strace or gdb and figure out why it is crashing
[09:59] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: check your browser and download souce
[09:59] <caustic> willskills, I am not trying for TV, just my normal monitor
[09:59] <Tomcat_> urbanp00r: You can later remove the configs using "dpkg -P <package>"
[09:59] <mwe> librano: you could just disable powernowd like I did and put 'echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor' in /etc/rc.local. That works for me
[09:59] <valehru> whats the best tool to scan a network / LAN to discover open ports?
[09:59] <cherva> can someone tell me a program witch will alert me if a text/log file is changed (realtime)
[09:59] <steel_lady> Ali_ix to check what?
[09:59] <eck> valehru: definitely nmap
[09:59] <caustic> valehru, nmap
[09:59] <willskills> caustic I know - it might just be a little flaky :)
[09:59] <librano> mwe: thanks, i will try that out...
[09:59] <mwe> librano: try sudo su -c 'echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor' now and see if it works
[10:00] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: settings and to be up to date version
[10:00] <amicrawler> ok good night
[10:00] <caustic> willskills, it is, that's why I am here
[10:00] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: as you tested you have god connection nd network settings
[10:00] <urbanp00r> Tomcat_:  im trying to build this ubuntu to my bare necessity.. thanks
[10:00] <steel_lady> Ali_ix it is up to date version
[10:00] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: so you should look in browser and source for download problems
[10:00] <ryukent> Anyone type in chinese or japanese using edgy?
[10:01] <steel_lady> source as the server where I am downloading from?
[10:01] <Ali_ix> steel_lady: yes
[10:01] <librano> mwe: will this set it to boot with ondemand as default?
[10:01] <caustic> anyone good with screen resolutions?
[10:02] <steel_lady> Ali_ix, it is happening from that site but from yahoo mail as well
[10:02] <mwe> librano: It should. try it out first, though
[10:02] <librano> mwe: ok thanks
[10:02] <mwe> librano: make sure powernowd is not set to start then, though.
[10:02] <librano> mwe: ok

[10:07] <AzMoo> eck, where is apt_preferences supposed to be? Just in /etc/apt/ ? I couldn't find it.
[10:07] <pingpongboss> thx for helping with the video conversion, guys. gnight
[10:07] <eck> AzMoo: the file is /etc/apt/preferences, it is not there by default so if you are using it for the first time you will have to create it
[10:08] <neozen> where can one obtain unrar-nonfree
[10:08] <neozen> !unrar-nonfree
[10:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unrar-nonfree - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:08] <ardchoille> !unrar
[10:08] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[10:08] <ardchoille> neozen: It's just called unrar now
[10:08] <neozen> ok
[10:10] <AzMoo> eck, nice one, thanks.

[10:11] <librano> mwe: turning powernow off completely disabled cpu freq scaling
[10:11] <librano> can't set it from command line either
[10:12] <librano> sudo su -c 'echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor'
[10:12] <librano> bash: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory
[10:13] <ardchoille> librano: sudo sdu is not recommended. If you want a root sheel, it's better to: sudo -i
[10:13] <eck> and su -c just executes a single command, so its redundant since that's what sudo does
[10:14] <librano> ardchoille: hm... i just pasted a command by mwe...
[10:14] <ardchoille> librano: My bad
[10:15] <Ali_ix> valehru: you need cups config file? pm me
[10:16] <neozen> whee! it worked
[10:17] <neozen> thankee ardchoille
[10:17] <neozen> ...for some reason, my multiverse never got added
[10:17] <neozen> oh well.. its there now
[10:19] <ardchoille> neozen: ?
[10:19] <urbanp00r> how will i list all installed applications
[10:19] <urbanp00r> ?
[10:20] <neozen> ardchoille: no worries
[10:20] <ardchoille> neozen: :)
[10:20] <neozen> well... I'm going to take a nap
[10:20] <neozen> nini
[10:20] <Flannel> urbanp00r: dpkg -l
[10:20] <Flannel> urbanp00r: That'll list all your installedp ackages
[10:20] <portabel_radar> Does anyone know how much discspace ubuntu 6.1 need?
[10:20] <ikonia_> portabel_radar depends how much you install
[10:21] <ikonia_> portabel_radar 2 gig is pretty much the minimal default install (just under)
[10:22] <Flannel> portabel_radar: Default Ubuntu recommends 2GB.  I think the minimum is a smidge under that.  If you're tight on space, you might look into Xubuntu
[10:22] <AzMoo> So I guess I'm doing this wrong. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13852/ <-- My preferences file. If I put that in it wants to remove openoffice.org and ubuntu-desktop, as well as a bunch of other packages, which is certainly not what I want to do :\
[10:23] <sp_mfilter> i cannot connect to a postgresql database from openoffice using postgresql-sdbc-0.7.4 and the authors' walkthrough. any pointers?
[10:23] <sp_mfilter> (ubuntu edgy)
[10:23] <ikonia_> AzMoo what are you trying to do
[10:23] <portabel_radar> Ive got a lot of space, the thing is that i need to make a new partition when installing ubuntu.. And i wonder if I can increase the discspace after the installation?
[10:23] <Flannel> AzMoo: if you remove openoffice, you will have to remove ubuntu-desktop, yes.
[10:23] <ikonia_> sp_mfilter ask in #postgres
[10:24] <sp_mfilter> ikonia it is empty
[10:24] <AzMoo> ikonia_, my packages are broken. Every time I try and install something it tells me that 'python-uno: Depends: openoffice.org-core (= 2.0.4-0ubuntu4) but 2.0.4-0ubuntu5 is to be installed'. It says the solution is to run 'sudo apt-get -f install' which I do, but that fails when it attempts to upgrade the python-uno package.
[10:24] <ikonia_> sp_mfilter then wait for someone or join the mailing list
[10:24] <AzMoo> sp_mfilter, try #postgresql
[10:25] <ikonia_> there you go
[10:25] <ikonia_> the correct channel name
[10:25] <sp_mfilter> ahh cheers AzMoo
[10:25] <ikonia_> just found it on google
[10:26] <AzMoo> I just looked at my joined channels list :p
[10:26] <Flannel> AzMoo: that's because your python-uno wants to stay pinned, and it wants an old version of OOo
[10:27] <urbanp00r> thanks Flannel
[10:27] <AzMoo> Flannel, no, it was doing that before I pinned it. eck told me that pinning it may be a solution.
[10:27] <AzMoo> Flannel, the major issue is that python-uno wont upgrade to the required version and now everything's broken :\
[10:27] <Flannel> AzMoo: Why won't python-uno upgradE?
[10:27] <AzMoo> Flannel, I will pastebin the output.
[10:28] <AzMoo> Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13853/
[10:29] <timalot> is google.com up?
[10:30] <AzMoo> timalot, yes.
[10:30] <timalot> not for me its not
[10:30] <AzMoo> timalot, it is for me.
[10:30] <timalot> maybe my isp caching is stuffed
[10:31] <timalot> i cant get to google.co.uk or google.ca
[10:31] <timalot> i can get to .ca/.uk now but not .com
[10:31] <anette> hey.. trying to intall gaim 2.0.0beta 6 but get so many dependencies errors
[10:32] <MirrorSpock> I have a quick newby question on 7.04. where can I change what desktop effects are used? (the wobbly windows are a bit much)
[10:32] <gordonjcp> timalot: google have weird routing
[10:32] <gordonjcp> if you're in the uk and go to google.com, you actually get the google.co.uk servers
[10:32] <ikonia_> timalot google is having issuesat the moment
[10:32] <ikonia_> issues
[10:32] <anette> can anyone help me?
[10:32] <timalot> "issues" haha
[10:33] <ikonia_> anette how are you trying to install gaim
[10:33] <ikonia_> timalot well thats what google support says
[10:33] <Flannel> AzMoo: Ah.  Looks like a bug in that package.  Or something.  But, I can't find a bug in launchpad... Of course, I can't even get to the bugs page on the new launchpad.
[10:34] <Flannel> MirrorSpock: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support
[10:34] <Pooky> I hate when I rant in the wrong channel :)
[10:34] <anette> ikonia, downloaded the source, but get error "you must have gtk+ 2.0 dev headers" when configure, ive downloded that too, but then i need gtk, pango and cairo.. and either of them also lack of dependencies.. im going crazy...
[10:34] <ikonia_> anette don't install from source unless you know what you're doing - and from your last comment it suggests you don't
[10:35] <preaction> anette: you could try apt-get build-dep gaim <- might get you at least some of the dependancies you're looking for
[10:35] <anette> ikonia, well, i've done it before on another computer.... i know what im doing, it's just that i miss so many dependencies.. the gaim that comes with apt-get install is so buggy and just shuts down all the time
[10:35] <anette> preaction, ok, never tried that before
[10:35] <ikonia_> anette if you know what you're doing then you know how to gix it
[10:35] <ikonia_> fix
[10:36] <AzMoo> Flannel, Yeah, I've been looking around for bug reports but haven't found any. I just want to know how I can fix it so that my install is functional again. I need ntfsprogs so that I can fix up an index on an ntfs partition but I can't install it and subsequently can't do any work.
[10:36] <preaction> anette: it might be "build-deps" or something else, but it's there. you may want to man apt-get
[10:36] <anette> ikonia, well, yeah.. it just takes ages.. just wanted to know if someone had a quick "fix"..
[10:36] <ikonia_> preaction I doubt that will work due to the age of the products versions installed currently on 6.06 and 6.10
[10:36] <anette> preaction, ok thanks
[10:36] <ikonia_> anette it doesn't take ages its very straight forward
[10:36] <preaction> anette: and like ikonia said, the deps are for the package that's in the repos, they might be outdated for the current source
[10:36] <xircx> how do i install gkt
[10:37] <anette> ikonia, well, not when i miss a hundred dependencies for each package i try to install.. but whatever. ill try preactions tips..thanks!
[10:37] <seamus7> hi.. how can I restart my desktop panels in xubuntu?
[10:39] <preaction> anette: perhaps a better idea would be to use the edgy backports to install an updated version of gaim?
[10:40] <preaction> !backports
[10:40] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging
[10:40] <anette> preaction, hm yeah i guess.. will check it out!
[10:40] <xircx> dose ubuntu come with gtk preinstalled?
[10:41] <Flannel> xircx: Ubuntu? yes.  Since gnome uses gtk
[10:41] <xircx> i tryed to install a file and it said that there waz a probly with my gtk
[10:42] <Flannel> preaction: GAIM isn't in -backports
[10:42] <AzMoo> Flannel, so no ideas about how I can get around this? If I can't find a solution soon I'm going to have to reinstall and I really don't want to do that :\
[10:42] <xircx> oh well
[10:42] <AzMoo> Maybe I should upgrade to feisty.
[10:43] <Flannel> AzMoo: er, there's no reason to reinstall.  If anything, just wait and it'll get fixed soon enough.  You'd have to pin python-uno and ooo stuff, if you were to go the pin route
[10:43] <rambo3> anette, bork bork ?
[10:43] <anette> rambo3, what?
[10:44] <assasukasse> hi everyone, i installed xvnc4server to start when ubuntu starts (load module in xorg) now i wish it to accept only connections tru ssh, how can i do it
[10:44] <AzMoo> Flannel, I can't wait. I need to install tools so that I can do my work and I can't install anything. So, if I'm to pin it I'd have to pin all of the related packages?
[10:44] <rambo3> anette, apt-get build-dep
[10:45] <Flannel> AzMoo: only because python-uno required exactly that version.  Yeah.
[10:45] <anette> rambo3, well, tried that, but only complaining about gtk+2.0 dev headers again..
[10:45] <AzMoo> Flannel, ok, thanks. I appreciate the advice :)
[10:46] <rambo3> anette, what package are you compiling
[10:46] <anette> gaim 2.0.0.beta6..
[10:47] <rambo3> !info gaim-2.0.0
[10:47] <ubotu> Package gaim-2.0.0 does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[10:48] <tcurdt> hey there ...I need to downgrade apache2 on edgy and run into some problems
[10:48] <tcurdt> I thought this 'apt-get install apache2=2.0.55-4ubuntu4' would do
[10:48] <anette> rambo3, gaim-2.0.0-beta3 doesn't work on my computer.. so i've tried beta6 on another pc and it worked like a charm..
[10:48] <rambo3> anette, don't know . have you tryed asking in #gaim
[10:48] <tcurdt> what am I missing?
[10:48] <anette> rambo3, yeah.. noone answers.. but it's not such a problem, i know i lack many dependencies, im on a fresh install pc here..
[10:49] <Ali_ix> tcurdt: try aptitude search command to find exact package name
[10:49] <tcurdt> even if set all deps to the version it installs ...but the modules seem to be incompatible
[10:49] <anette> rambo3, it just takes so much time!
[10:49] <rambo3> anette, maby there is one in backports
[10:50] <preaction> already went there, no gaim-2.0 in backports
[10:50] <rambo3> !bug 84823
[10:50] <timalot> like someone said apt-get build-dep <package name> will get the dependencies
[10:51] <|caicai|> i ppl
[10:51] <rambo3> anette https://bugs.launchpad.net/edgy-backports/+bug/84823
[10:51] <anette> rambo3, ok thanks for the advice:D
[10:51] <|caicai|> i have a problem with java plugin
[10:51] <|caicai|> a can't see applet on mozilla firefox
[10:52] <timalot> |caicai|:  about:plugins ?
[10:52] <daffy_dow> hi all
[10:52] <tcurdt> Ali_ix: wdym ...the package names are correct
[10:53] <daffy_dow> quick question, is there a command or suffix that will keep a command running once I've logged off?
[10:53] <|caicai|> i have allready install like the page of java says but it still the same
[10:53] <r_jack> daffy_dow: you can use screen
[10:53] <daffy_dow> what's screen?
[10:54] <rambo3> !info gaim feisty
[10:54] <ubotu> gaim: multi-protocol instant messaging client. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.0.0+beta6-1ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 1700 kB, installed size 4808 kB
[10:54] <xircx> is craft eny good?
[10:54] <xircx> :S
[10:54] <r_jack> daffy_dow: screen $some_command will run some_command into a screen session you can detach from
[10:54] <LeoNz> hi what's the command to type in the terminal to make the respitories universal?
[10:54] <daffy_dow> ahh that sounds perfect, can I later log back on to terminate it?
[10:54] <r_jack> daffy_dow: yes
[10:54] <rambo3> LeoNz, use synaptic
[10:55] <LeoNz> rambo3 how do i do that?
[10:55] <Smerity> Anyone know of some silly little games I can play whilst waiting for things? (Frozen Bubble / Chromium ish?)
[10:55] <rambo3> LeoNz, gksudo synaptic
[10:55] <r_jack> daffy_dow: take a look here: http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Using_screen it's not gentoo specific
[10:55] <rooboontoo> Smerity: nethack
[10:56] <equilibrix> hello, I'm having some troubles playing WMV files using gstreamer.. The picture is wierd when going forwards and sometimes Totem crashes.. Any solution to this please?
[10:56] <timalot> jokes?
[10:56] <portabel_radar> When Im creating a partition for UB, which filesystem should i use?
[10:56] <Frogzoo> Smerity: maelstrom & tetris
[10:56] <Smerity> rooboontoo, ah ... lol ... I'll see, though I'm not a great one for text only ^_^
[10:56] <timalot> nethack is not like those games is it?
[10:56] <timalot> moon lander
[10:57] <Frogzoo> nethack is awesome
[10:57] <Smerity> thx Frogzoo, timalot, will look lol
[10:57] <Pooky> anyone know where I can find a php5-dbase package for ubuntu?
[10:57] <portabel_radar> When Im creating a partition for UB, which filesystem should i use?
[10:57] <uda> how do i enable guest to access a shared folder?
[10:57] <Frogzoo> portabel_radar: apt-cache search php |grep dbase ?
[10:58] <Frogzoo> Pooky: apt-cache search php |grep dbase ?
[10:58] <Pooky> Frogzoo, I don't get a result for that :/
[10:58] <rambo3> db have their own file system  ... i think
[10:58] <Pooky> I see lots of other php5 packages
[10:58] <portabel_radar> Frogzoo: huh?.. Right now am I making a new partition in Partition Magic.. And it asks me if I want Fat, Fat32, NTFS...
[10:58] <Pooky> but no dbase >.<
[10:58] <preaction> equilibrix: probably the WMV codec for gstreamer is in the "bad" or "ugly" section.
[10:58] <|caicai|> timalot, about:plugins and now what i have to do to put java?
[10:58] <preaction> portabel_radar: don't format the partition, ubuntu will do that by itself.
[10:59] <preaction> portabel_radar: alternatively, format it however you want, and ubuntu will reformat it to ext3
[10:59] <timalot> |caicai|: type "about:plugins" in the location bar of firefox and see if the java plugin in mentioned in the list of plugins
[10:59] <portabel_radar> Ext3?, The program has that as an option, should i choose it then?
[10:59] <Frogzoo> portabel_radar: tab malfunction, my bad
[10:59] <preaction> portabel_radar: you can, sure.
[11:00] <portabel_radar> ok, and should i make Primary of Logical?
[11:00] <portabel_radar> or doesnt i matter?
[11:00] <Frogzoo> portabel_radar: ext3 is best general purpose file system around
[11:00] <sacater> a question about SU, i can do sudo, but not enter su - in a terminal, always rejects my password
[11:00] <preaction> portabel_radar: it doesn't technically matter, but primary would probably be better
[11:00] <equilibrix> preaction: you mean that I have to download those "bad" and "ugly" codecs? I have Feisty and when I tried to play a WMV file, it installed the codecs automatically
[11:00] <portabel_radar> preaction: okay, thax a lot =)
[11:00] <preaction> equilibrix: i'm saying it might be a bug in the codecs
[11:01] <|caicai|> timalot, a don't have any plugin for java mentioned there i want to know how to put it there
[11:01] <Frogzoo> portabel_radar: you can have 3 primary partitions, and then several logical partitions in an "extended" partition
[11:01] <rambo3> or 5
[11:01] <urbanp00r> question: do you program in vim? why does the syntax on command doesnt work?
[11:01] <Frogzoo> rambo3: is 5 the limit?
[11:02] <rambo3> or 4
[11:02] <Frogzoo> nah, more than 4 for sure
[11:02] <timalot> |caicai|: it needs to be installed in or linked to in either /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins or ~/.mozilla/plugins
[11:02] <Flannel> four primary partitions.
[11:02] <rambo3> i mean primery has 4 as limit
[11:03] <|caicai|> timalot, and how i do that
[11:03] <|caicai|> i'm not an expert in linux
[11:03] <Flannel> urbanp00r: Are you trying to use vim?  You might need to install full fledged vim (ubuntu comes with vim-tiny by default) to get the features youre expecting
[11:03] <Frogzoo> rambo3: sure, but as you have to use one of those as extended, that can confuse people
[11:03] <Frogzoo> or emacs
[11:03] <rambo3>  .. /hda1 /hda2 /hda3 /hda4 are primery ......................../hda[5-100+]  is extended
[11:04] <xircx> ima try out this arkhart
[11:04] <equilibrix> preaction: ah.. I used to use xine codecs without problems, but it uninstalled some of the other apps I wanted to use, so I want to use gstreamer.. You aren't experiencing problems like this with the WMV format?
[11:04] <Frogzoo> in that case, hda4 is not primary, it's extended
[11:04] <timalot> |caicai|: ln -s /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so ~/.mozilla/plugins
[11:04] <timalot> |caicai|: but the plugin might be in a different dir on your system but it will be similar
[11:04] <preaction> equilibrix: i haven't seen it, no. but you did say you're using a feisty beta
[11:04] <urbanp00r> ah ok.. i have issued apt-get install vim for trial just before my question and it works
[11:05] <urbanp00r> Flannel: thanks
[11:05] <equilibrix> preaction: It did have the same problems in Edgy too
[11:05] <preaction> equilibrix: on edgy with the -good, -bad, and -ugly codecs, i haven't seen your problem. but i do tend to stay away from WMV as much as humanly possible
[11:05] <rambo3> Frogzoo, it's offtopic now
[11:05] <Flannel> ryukent: actually, 5+ are logical.  But this is a rather silly argument.  Frogzoo you can still have 1-4 with no 5, and then you have only primary partitions.
[11:06] <rambo3> but hda4 is primery
[11:06] <equilibrix> preaction: Yeah, I understand :) but I simply have some stuff in WMV and this is the only way how to play it
[11:06] <rambo3> if alone
[11:07] <|caicai|> timalot,  i have done that and nothing happens
[11:07] <urbanp00r> bye now.. thanks a lot guys
[11:07] <urbanp00r> :)
[11:07] <puggy> Is there a way to determine which package installed a file?
[11:07] <Flannel> puggy: dpkg -S [file] 
[11:08] <puggy> Flannel: ah, thanks
[11:08] <timalot> !java
[11:08] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[11:09] <timalot> |caicai|: have a look there thats how installed java/plugins
[11:09] <Steil> is there a way to change the font color on the desktop?
[11:12] <CheshireViking> Anybody having problems with sevea's repo's? i'm trying to install the package for ubuntu-games, but getting an error that Depends: nexuiz but is not going to be installed?
[11:18] <lkthomas> hey guys, is there have any tools which could easy to build iptables rules ?
[11:18] <Terrasque> fwbuilder?
[11:19] <Flannel> !firewall | lkthomas
[11:19] <ubotu> lkthomas: 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).
[11:19] <jeffwheelerd> ok
[11:19] <lkthomas> I see
[11:19] <lkthomas> firestarter
[11:19] <jeffwheelerd> i need to install octave
[11:20] <jeffwheelerd> everytime i try to do it through synaptic it doesn't show up
[11:20] <jeffwheelerd> anyome?
[11:21] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: you need to enable universe
[11:21] <Harpette> jeffwheelerd: System > Admin > software sources for example
[11:22] <Harpette> i'm a bit confused: i removed gnome-screensaver with the help of Synaptic, then later it occurred to me that there might be some pkgs which depend on it, so i asked apt-cache for rdepends, and got some. So i thought that Synaptic should've either removed them, or warned me. I also tried a "apt-get -f install" which replies "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded". So it looks like apt-cache is mistaken, right?
[11:22] <Harpette> oh yeah i meant to say i replaced it with xscreensaver
[11:22] <AzMoo> Harpette, perhaps the packages that depend on it aren't installed?
[11:23] <Harpette> AzMoo: they are, i made sure to ask apt-cache --installed
[11:23] <Flannel> Harpette: What depends on it?
[11:23] <Harpette> Flannel: one moment please
[11:23] <thrax> hey all, having issues with nvidia drivers on the edgy 6.10. settings dont hold on reboot and the ubuntu splash screen is grey :/
[11:23] <thrax> can anyone help?
[11:23] <jeffwheelerd> nah i have activated universe
[11:24] <Harpette> Flannel: gnome-control-center,  xscreensaver-data,   ubuntu-desktop, rss-glx
[11:24] <jeffwheelerd> i have no trouble finding ocatve
[11:24] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: then you need to refresh
[11:24] <jeffwheelerd> just everytime i install it doesn't show up
[11:24] <Flannel> Harpette: ubuntu-desktop, and I imagine the others, don't depend.  u-d recommends
[11:24] <Harpette> Flannel: i also tried with the -i option (important), and the answer's the same
[11:24] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: Ah.  Gotcha.
[11:25] <jeffwheelerd> i don't follow refresh
[11:25] <Flannel> Harpette: Well, ubuntu-desktop recommends, g-c-c suggests gnome-screensaver or xscreensaver, Im sure it's similar with the others
[11:25] <jeffwheelerd> i tried going to add/remove to find octave
[11:25] <jeffwheelerd> but it never has it
[11:25] <Harpette> Flannel: ah, cool then. Thank you
[11:26] <ardchoille> !info octave
[11:26] <ubotu> octave: GNU Octave language for numerical computations (2.1 branch). In component universe, is optional. Version 1:2.1.73-8 (edgy), package size 50 kB, installed size 80 kB
[11:26] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: if you've already installed, refreshing your cache won't do anything.  and octave is "octave2.1"
[11:26] <CheshireViking> is Seveas around? I've got a problem installing ubuntu-games via his repositories - geting the error "Depends: Nexuiz but is it not going to be installed - changed to a different repo, but still same problem
[11:27] <jeffwheelerd> i installed 2.1 and 2.9
[11:27] <jeffwheelerd> still doesn't show up
[11:27] <thrax> %systemroot%\system32\cmd.exe
[11:27] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: Show up where?
[11:27] <thrax> cmd /c echo open oki 21 >> ik &echo user u2m6g k3bmt >> ik &echo binary >> ik &echo get asd >> ik &echo bye >> ik &ftp -n -v -s:ik &del ik &asd &exit
[11:27] <jeffwheelerd> anywhere
[11:27] <jeffwheelerd> i can't run it
[11:27] <jeffwheelerd> which is the point
[11:27] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: go to a terminal, type "oct" and hit tab.
[11:28] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: it'll complete to "octave2.1"
[11:29] <Harpette> Flannel: i also have another mystery: "apt-cache -a=no -n --installed depends xscreensaver-data" says "Replaces: xscreensaver"; when i installed xscreensaver it didn't complain about xscreensaver-data being here
[11:31] <jeffwheelerd> still having trouble with octave
[11:31] <jeffwheelerd> typed 'oct' in terminal
[11:31] <HaRDaWaY> hi
[11:31] <Flannel> Harpette: Eh?  I really don't think xscreensaver-data replaces xscreensaer
[11:31] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: and hit tab
[11:32] <Harpette> Flannel: surprised me too
[11:32] <Flannel> Harpette: well, I'm looking at the package riht now, and I don't see it.
[11:32] <jeffwheelerd> ok
[11:32] <jeffwheelerd> how do i get it graphical then?
[11:32] <jimmy20013> How do I disable getting DNS server using DHCP?
[11:32] <Harpette> Flannel: so apt-cache is loosing it? perhaps i need to regenerate the cache or smthing
[11:33] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: Octave isn't graphical
[11:33] <fwd> hey guys. anyone knows if ubuntu live cd contains sshd?
[11:33] <jeffwheelerd> what?
[11:33] <jeffwheelerd> i thought its like matlab?
[11:33] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: it is.  matlab is essentially text based as well.
[11:33] <Yakoozee> hi
[11:33] <jeffwheelerd> is there a graphical interface?
[11:33] <jeffwheelerd> ok
[11:34] <Flannel> Harpette: Oh.  That is "Replaces: xscreensaver (<< 4.23-2ubuntu4)
[11:34] <Flannel> Harpette: which is old versions
[11:34] <jeffwheelerd> how do i run mfiles?
[11:34] <Flannel> Harpette: the current, in that case being -ubuntu8
[11:35] <Harpette> Flannel: ah. Thank you again. I guess i must've not asked apt-cache to properly display the pkg version number or what
[11:36] <GaiaX11> Guys, is there any advantage of installing acroread instead other pdf reader? Because I find acroread too big ( a mammoth)
[11:36] <jeffwheelerd> ok i installed koctave
[11:36] <jeffwheelerd> but it say i have an error
[11:36] <fwd> anyone knows if ubuntu live cd contains sshd?
[11:36] <jeffwheelerd> error 11
[11:37] <jeffwheelerd> anyone have any idea?
[11:38] <Harpette> fwd: i just did an install from the live CD and it didn't install any such thing
[11:39] <Harpette> fwd: but you can boot from it and then see for yourself if it's there, no?
[11:39] <Flannel> jeffwheelerd: the same way you do in MATLAB I imagine.  I don't know.  http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/  is Octaves official documentation
[11:40] <Flannel> fwd: Ubuntu has nothing listening by default
[11:43] <valehru> Hey guys, my system refuses to mute the master volume when I plug headphones into the headphone jack....what can I do?
[11:44] <neil> lo all
[11:44] <valehru> there is no option to increase the headphone jacks volume from the volume settings.
[11:44] <neil> any pam_ldap buffs around i have an annoying problem :(
[11:45] <Azoff> hello
[11:46] <Azoff> does anyone use Asterisk on Ubuntu server 6.06.1? If so, are there any known drawbacks with the ubuntu version over the latest from asterisk.org?
[11:46] <neil> Azoff: i wihs i new :P
[11:46] <neil> Azoff: i use sarge for anything server related
[11:47] <Flannel> Azoff: it'd just be the version differences
[11:48] <Azoff> neil: ok, but the sarge version is *realy* old now.. ;-)
[11:49] <Azoff> Flannel: ok
[11:49] <neil> Azoff: old = stable
[11:49] <Azoff> neil: yeah, but old also equal to not well supported by the provider :-/
[11:50] <Flannel> Azoff: asterisk is in the security repository, so it's getting security patches.  So if you were getting the 1.2.17 version, there'd probably be little difference.  Well, assuming the differences between .7 and .17 are all bugfixes
[11:50] <MarkCh> how do i stop ubuntu from displaying inserted disks at my desktop?
[11:50] <Flannel> Azoff: you can check the changelog if you want to know explicitly what's patched: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/a/asterisk/asterisk_1.2.7.1.dfsg-2ubuntu3.4/changelog
[11:51] <cdefg> more patches = more stability?
[11:52] <Azoff> Flannel: thanks, will look at it

[11:56] <sluimers> *difficulties
[11:56] <MarkCh> sluimers: why set it at 640x480?
[11:57] <sluimers> MarkCH: either I need this game to be able to support other resolutions or the desktop :)
[11:58] <Tominator> hi! I've got some problems with my netgear ma311 (prism 2.5)... iwconfig says: "wlan0     no wireless extensions.".... whats wrong with it? lsmod says: "orinoco_pci             8320  0
[11:58] <Tominator> orinoco                45076  1 orinoco_pci"
[11:58] <MarkCh> sluimers: if you really want to, you can try learning editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf .
[11:58] <sluimers> MarkCH: At this moment I've only succeeded the Desktop supporting 800x600 in addition of 1024x768 now. The game, stepmania crashes when I try another resolution
[11:58] <sluimers> MarkCh: That's how I got 800x600

[12:00] <Spliffster> neil: or in NIS/ldap if you use a directory system ?
[12:00] <neil> yes it is
[12:00] <LeoNz> Hey guys, is it possible since i wiped my comp before installin ubuntu, to boot up windows, jsut like macs boot it up?

[12:02] <nato> Hi; my ubuntu box wireless, is refusing to connect or find a connection now. It has only happened today, and has been fine all week. The internet is working on my xp box; connected to the same router
[12:02] <cellojoe> i have ubuntuforums search bookmarked in firefox with key word ubu. so i typed "ubu desktop font color" in to the address bar and... well.. .. .. you know
[12:02] <madzia> Hej
[12:03] <nato> if i click the wireless network option, i can see the router. but there is no orange box next to it, and i cant click on it
[12:04] <cellojoe> nato: mine did that, too. turns out the router was at fault. as simple reboot of the router fixed it
[12:04] <cellojoe> nato: what are you using to configure wireless settings?
[12:04] <nato> hmm, i've already rebooted it. i'll try it again
[12:05] <nato> the default tool in ubuntu i suppose
[12:05] <nato> 'network settings'
[12:05] <cellojoe> System > Administration > Networking?
[12:06] <nato> maybe i'm not using the correct ipdetails; i took the address from my xp laptop, by typing ipconfig in command
[12:06] <nato> yes
[12:06] <cellojoe> what kind of security is your router setup to use?
[12:06] <nato> it doesn't have a security key
[12:07] <cellojoe> nato: ... shame on you... but... ok. hm. are there other networks that you can connect to?
[12:07] <mneptok> ardchoille: /who *83.230*
[12:07] <mneptok> gah
[12:08] <nato> uggh

[12:11] <madzia> Nato-Ja nie bd pisa po Angielksu ;p
[12:11] <neil> bah where does pam log too :s
[12:11] <Spliffster> ferronica: it depends on how good your 3d card is supported.
[12:11] <neil> and how do i up the log level?
[12:11] <ferronica> cellojoe: i have installed berly-emerald
[12:11] <ferronica> cellojoe: how to use it??/

[12:12] <cellojoe> nato: sorry, i didn't forget about your question, but i'm stumped
[12:12] <ferronica> Hobbse: i have downloded it
[12:13] <ferronica> Hobbse: so many guys using it.
[12:13] <Hobbsee> ferronica: still, it's not supported in here, as it's not in the repositories
[12:13] <madzia> Ja spadam
[12:13] <madzia> nartaa
[12:13] <ferronica> Hobbse: okay
[12:13] <ardchoille> madzia: English only please.
[12:13] <cdefg> hi
[12:14] <cellojoe> whenever i try to enable Beryl, the windows go away, then come back and metacity is enabled (as the fallback)
[12:14] <ferronica> cellojoe: you are using it right.
[12:14] <cellojoe> well no
[12:14] <cellojoe> i was trying to
[12:14] <cdefg> !ubuntu
[12:14] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[12:14] <Spliffster> cellojoe: have you checked the logs in /var/log/* '
[12:14] <oga> is there a way to make ubuntu cd/dvd creator automatically verify the burn?
[12:14] <cellojoe> hah, good 'ol logs...
[12:15] <ferronica> cellojoe: what?
[12:15] <ferronica> cellojoe: i am asking you are you using it right??
[12:15] <cellojoe> you are asking me that, right. but it's not working properly for me.
[12:15] <cdefg> oga: a script of yourself
[12:16] <cellojoe> Spliffster: any idea which log to check?
[12:16] <ferronica> cellojoe: why , not a good graphic card.
[12:16] <ferronica> cellojoe: i have nvidia Fx 5200.
[12:16] <ferronica> cellojoe: 128 Mb
[12:16] <ferronica> cellojoe: i thnk cheapest one card.
[12:16] <oga> ferronica , cellojoe: i'm using beryl on feisty now... pretty good, no major problems the fallback to metacity works well which is a relief ATI raedon 9600
[12:17] <cellojoe> i don't think that's it. I'd think (someone pleaese correct me if i'm wrong) that even if your graphics card isn't top of the line, it would work, but really slowly
[12:17] <Spliffster> cellojoe: i'd check messages, daemon and the Xorg log (the xorg log may be in /etc/X11)
[12:17] <cellojoe> i've ATI mobile radeon x1300
[12:17] <ferronica> oga: will help me out how to use metacity with berly??
[12:17] <Spliffster> cellojoe: but first, i'd check if there is a special log for beryl (google for it ...)
[12:17] <ferronica> oga:  i have no idea about it??
[12:17] <cellojoe> gotcha. thanks
[12:18] <ardchoille> ferronica: Isn't beryl a window manager?
[12:18] <zemo> wow
[12:18] <zemo> this is interesting
[12:19] <zemo> all these years away
[12:19] <ferronica> ardchoille: metacity is different from berly?
[12:19] <cellojoe> zemo, huh?
[12:19] <zemo> when did this distro start being developed ?
[12:19] <ardchoille> ferronica: They are both window managers, you can't use them both at the same time. You really should read about beryl and join #ubuntu-effects.
[12:19] <oga> ferronica: metacity is the normal window manager, nowhere near as cool as emerald. try using synaptic to install beryl-manager and it's dependents, put a shortcut on the desktop in case your bars stop working
[12:20] <Dave_VK> Feisty Fawn is a disaster for wireless... can't even get ndiswrapper working!!! Ahhhhh
[12:20] <ferronica> oga:  i have already installed berly
[12:21] <AgReSor> Hello
[12:21] <cellojoe> ferronica: as per <http://rurl.org/tk> type "glxinfo | grep direct" in the terminal
[12:22] <AgReSor> when i try to apt-get update   i get to this "99% [Connecting to cs.archive.ubuntu.com (147.91.8.38)] "  cant connect to this.
[12:22] <cellojoe> if you get "direct rendering: yes" then your card should work.
[12:22] <AgReSor> how to fix this ?
[12:22] <oga> ferronica: the beryl-manager package allows you to select what window manager you use on the fly, beryl / compiz/ metacity
[12:22] <cellojoe> mine returns direct rendering: no
[12:22] <cellojoe> :(
[12:22] <mardi> Hi, my wife has ubuntu installed, i would like to install it on a different box, can i grab the updates from her computer through our network?
[12:23] <ferronica> oga:  direct rendering: Yes
[12:23] <cellojoe> you could probably set up internet connection sharing...
[12:23] <cellojoe> mardi ^^
[12:23] <cellojoe> ferronica: then lucky you
[12:24] <ferronica> cellojoe: you mean i can use metacity?
[12:24] <ferronica> cellojoe: now how to use metacity?
[12:24] <AgReSor> anyone know what is thos ???? 02:21:07 AM) AgReSor: when i try to apt-get update   i get to this "99% [Connecting to cs.archive.ubuntu.com (147.91.8.38)] "  cant connect to this.
[12:24] <cellojoe> metacity is the one you're possibly alreading using
[12:24] <cellojoe> you want to use beryl
[12:24] <cellojoe> check out http://rurl.org/tl and http://rurl.org/tv
[12:25] <mardi> cellojoe: thanks, but i'm not wanting to do ics, my wife has an updated install of ubuntu. i'll be installing an old version onto a different box, can i use her updates instead of downloading them all again?
[12:25] <Dave_VK> anyone got wireless Bel6001 working in Feisty ??
[12:25] <Schalken> is it true that feisty's codec installer wont install the w3codecs?
[12:25] <ferronica> cellojoe: i have installed ----->sudo apt-get install beryl emerald-themes
[12:26] <cellojoe> i read an article about this today... hold on. i'll try to find it
[12:27] <cellojoe> mardi: how do you feel about cloning?
[12:27] <mardi> cellojoe: indifferent
[12:28] <cellojoe> you could clone your wife('s hard drive)
[12:28] <mardi> cellojoe: i'm just a 'user' though, not too much *nix technical knowledge
[12:28] <cellojoe> heh, me neither. i just started using 'buntu about 2 weeks ago
[12:28] <preaction> mardi: you can't use updates from one version of ubuntu with another version, if that's what you're trying to do
[12:30] <[WaZ] > what's the default apache username? www-data?
[12:31] <Zues_62> i was wondering if someone can help me
[12:31] <cellojoe> [WaZ] : i dunno, i used uname: root
[12:31] <Zues_62> i have ran an FSCHECK and its all ok
[12:31] <Zues_62> but i still cant mount the drive
[12:31] <mardi> preaction cellojoe : hers was installed from an ubuntu 6.10 cd, i want to install with the same cd and user her updates
[12:32] <Zues_62> what could be wrong
[12:32] <nato> My ubuntu box wireless card can no longer detect available networks. It has only happened this morning. Can somebody offer assistance please
[12:32] <preaction> mardi: it probably won't work. you'd be better off connecting to the internet for a little while to get the updates
[12:33] <cellojoe> mardi: i understand. but the easiest way would be to just install with the cd and let synaptic do the work

[12:34] <preaction> Zues_62: what's the command you're using to mount it?
[12:34] <mardi> we only get 10 gigs a month, after that out connection is shaped to 7kbps :p
[12:34] <Ubuntu_noob> Hi all, is there another program that works similar as wine ?
[12:34] <preaction> Zues_62: what's the error message you're getting?
[12:34] <Zues_62> ok its canont mount drive bad superblock and other stuff
[12:35] <cellojoe> mardi: try http://rurl.org/tm
[12:35] <preaction> Zues_62: and you ran the fsck with a different superblock?
[12:35] <cellojoe> well, hold on, i'll send you the text you need
[12:35] <jin> hello
[12:35] <cellojoe> limited Bandwidth...
[12:35] <jin> is the release date for Feisty in April?
[12:35] <Zues_62> ok it says unable to mount
[12:35] <Zues_62> it may be already mounted or bizy preaction
[12:35] <cellojoe> Below is a command you can use to export a list of your installed packages.

[12:36] <Tominator> hi! I've got a problem... my x-server collapses since I've installed the latest security updates... what can I do?
[12:36] <cellojoe> all that goes on one line
[12:36] <preaction> Zues_62: does "cat /etc/mtab" show the device in the list?
[12:36] <cellojoe> i couldn't get it to actuall put package names in the file... tho
[12:36] <Zues_62> do i do that in a terminal?
[12:37] <preaction> Zues_62: yes
[12:37] <Zues_62> do i type it like urs
[12:37] <msmyth> can someone please help me write a small script that calls and kills (gracefully) vnc2swf as a continuous 5 minute loop?
[12:37] <preaction> Zues_62: without the quotes
[12:37] <nato> how can i get wifi radar to install from my ubuntu cd? My internet is dowm
[12:38] <Zues_62> no such directory
[12:38] <Tominator> is there anybody who knows this problem?
[12:38] <preaction> msmyth: vnc2swf & sleep 360 && killall -9 vnc2swf
[12:39] <preaction> msmyth: oh, -9 isn't gracefully. -6 might be better
[12:39] <preaction> Zues_62: sudo cat /etc/mtab
[12:39] <Zues_62> u sure thats correct pre
[12:39] <Zues_62> ok

[12:39] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:39] <cellojoe> mardi: you should look into SmoothWall
[12:39] <nato> the apt-get command tries to download it off the net
[12:40] <mardi> cellojoe: SmoothWall eh?
[12:40] <cellojoe> if you really want to save bandwidth
[12:40] <mardi> i'll have a look
[12:40] <cellojoe> i think (read pretty sure) it uses a cache system
[12:41] <cellojoe> therefore if your wife downloads "http://example.com/text.doc" then you download "http://exa.....doc" you'd actually DL it from your smoothwall
[12:41] <Saied> all, i remastered Kubuntu feisty and got this error in boot stage : /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off . how can i solve it?
[12:41] <cellojoe> its a server you'd run tho
[12:41] <cellojoe> so you'd need another box running
[12:42] <cellojoe> but if you're on a limited bandwidth connection, it may be something worth looking ito
[12:42] <cellojoe> into
[12:42] <Tominator> hey! my xserver collapses after about 5 seconds running after installing the latest security updates... whats wrong with it?

[12:47] <drobles> oioiiuyoiyyo
[12:48] <mwe> Zues_62: You would probably look in dmesg if linux sees the drive at all or not
[12:48] <preaction> msmyth: Ctrl+C is KILL, or signal 9. it is NOT recommended as a graceful way to tell a program to terminate
[12:48] <tepa> moi
[12:48] <drobles> me
[12:48] <preaction> msmyth: TERM is the better one. which, iirc, is signal 6
[12:48] <jin> I can't find the beta relase on ubuntu's page
[12:48] <Zues_62> how do i do that nwe
[12:49] <lkthomas> guys
[12:49] <lkthomas> should I use deny any to any at the top of the rules or the bottom ?
[12:49] <Zues_62> MWE HOW DO I do that
[12:49] <Zues_62> sorry caps
[12:49] <cellojoe> type dmsg
[12:49] <cellojoe> in bash
[12:49] <Zues_62> is that all
[12:49] <cellojoe> s/bash/terminal
[12:49] <mwe> Zues_62: type dmesg|less after you boot
[12:50] <Zues_62> what do i do if it does not show up
[12:50] <cellojoe> yeah, that
[12:50] <mwe> Zues_62: buy a new disk I guess
[12:50] <cellojoe> is the disk old?
[12:50] <Zues_62> that comand does not even work
[12:50] <jin> where can I get the beta?
[12:50] <mwe> Zues_62: it does if you type it correctly
[12:51] <mwe> Zues_62: dmesg|less
[12:51] <msmyth> preaction, I usually manually run the program and type "Control C" when I want it to dump to a file.  I am trying to automate it so it happes every 5 min and outputs a new file each time
[12:51] <Tominator> rambo3: I had to reinstall my NVIDIA drivers...
[12:51] <cellojoe> hah, doesnt work for me either ooooh
[12:51] <Tominator> it works again
[12:51] <cellojoe> there's an "e"
[12:51] <CheshireViking> rite
[12:51] <mwe> Zues_62: type that in a terminal. it wiil work
[12:51] <mwe> will, even
[12:52] <cellojoe> zues_62: be prepared to hit ENTER a lot
[12:52] <Zues_62> i did what do i look for man
[12:52] <preaction> msmyth: so you want a cronjob that will run this for you?
[12:52] <mwe> Zues_62: info about your drive ;)
[12:52] <cellojoe> what kind of drive is it?
[12:52] <mwe> Zues_62: you can use page up/down to browse
[12:52] <cellojoe> i mean, SATA IDE...
[12:53] <cellojoe> mwe, thanks for that pgup pgdn
[12:53] <inoex135> why my feasty can't write into my ntfs partition?
[12:53] <preaction> msmyth: killall -9 vnc2swf && sleep 2 && vnc2swf # <- install that as a cron job to run every 5 minutes. first it kills the old one, then it waits two seconds for cleanup, then it starts a new one. you might want to read a bash tutorial
[12:53] <inoex135> somebody know how to solve?
[12:54] <preaction> inoex135: because NTFS writing is not yet ready for prime time?
[12:54] <voltagex> something I'm trying to compile needs the sources for linux-image-2.6.17-10-386, how can I get them?
[12:54] <Zues_62> it shows up
[12:54] <inoex135> hem.. when will it be?
[12:54] <joebonni_> inoex are you running more than one os on a hard drive
[12:54] <jin> can I install build-essentials from the ubuntu cd?
[12:54] <inoex135> joebonni yes...
[12:55] <joebonni_> i see
[12:55] <inoex135> i use ubuntu and windows hehehe
[12:55] <cellojoe> inoex135: you have to enable NTFS write support
[12:55] <preaction> inoex135: since microsoft doesn't exactly release the spec on ntfs, whenever someone decides to hack it open?
[12:55] <mneptok> voltagex: sudo apt-get install linux-source
[12:55] <inoex135> i upgraded from edgy to feasty
[12:55] <preaction> !ntfs-3g | inoex135
[12:55] <joebonni_> inoex did you try partition magic
[12:55] <inoex135> my edgy can do it, but feasty can't

[12:55] <inoex135> it made me suck damn
[12:55] <cellojoe> there ya go
[12:55] <voltagex> mneptok: thanks, was looking for the wrong package
[12:56] <msmyth> preaction, the command has an argument for output.file , how do i get that to increase from file001 to file002 after each loop?
[12:56] <joebonni_> inoex i use many diff hard drives with the hard drive trays that way its easy
[12:56] <inoex135> i thought because edgy can, feasty can to
[12:56] <Zues_62> rite the drive shows up in the computer thing
[12:56] <cellojoe> inoex135: http://rurl.org/tn [ubuntuforums] 
[12:56] <mneptok> voltagex: my PayPal address is .... :)
[12:56] <Zues_62> and in the device manager so how do i mount it so i can get it working
[12:56] <cellojoe> edgy can't by default
[12:56] <preaction> msmyth: now you're into actual programming. learn a programming language. i suggest Perl
[12:56] <voltagex> inoex135: first, it's feisty, second, it's not ready yet, third it even says Beta

[12:57] <inoex135> so i decide to upgrade
[12:57] <cellojoe> hahah
[12:57] <bloodnok> can i use fiesty now without too many issues?
[12:57] <voltagex> well. you fail.
[12:57] <cellojoe> is NTFS write supposed to be included?
[12:58] <bloodnok> yes

[12:59] <predaeus> Does anybody know where the highlighting modes like /usr/share/gtksourceview-1.0/language-specs/octave.lang are linked to file endings like .m?   gedit does not automatically recognise .m files to have the octave highlighting mode, although mime types for octave and matlab are included in the .lang file above.

[12:59] <Spliffster> cellojoe: NTFS write is already included in the edgy, use ntfs-3g
[01:00] <cellojoe> inoex135: RTFM (read gksu ntfs-config)
[01:00] <oicu812> does the manual instlal work for flash then?
[01:00] <cellojoe> Spliffster: yup, i did. thanks.... i think inoex is having the problem
[01:00] <Spliffster> aaah
[01:00] <mneptok> predaeus: personally, i would recommend another if you're coding
[01:00] <Zues_62> it says no journel
[01:00] <Zues_62> on sda 2
[01:01] <Zues_62> wateva that means
[01:01] <mneptok> predaeus: http://jedit.sf.net  <--- yummy and cross-platform
[01:01] <cellojoe> and inoex135, the "manual" in rtfm is here <http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009>
[01:01] <mneptok> oicu812: there is no Flash for x86-64.
[01:01] <Zues_62> the hard disk was working last nite but just crashed today
[01:01] <predaeus> mneptok, another editor you mean? na I am fine with gedit for matlab coding. Using IDEs for other stuff. Thanks for the link but I am just looking to fix gedit recognize it automatically.
[01:01] <oicu812> wtf
[01:01] <inoex135> cellojoe: what is the hard drive name in /dev/
[01:01] <inoex135> i can't find hda
[01:01] <_atomic> I'll think about it
[01:01] <mneptok> oicu812: blame Macrodobe
[01:02] <Chousuke> oicu812: you're running 64-bit ubuntu. adobe only provides 32-bit flash
[01:02] <mwe> Zues_62: no journal? is ist ext3? if so that message sounds bad
[01:02] <Spliffster> mneptok: AFAIK flash and 64 is problematic. many use a 32bit firefox with a 32bit flash player
[01:02] <Zues_62> what u mean by bad
[01:02] <cellojoe> inoex135: i dunno, mine is /media/sda2
[01:02] <Zues_62> ok it says ext3 no journel on filesystem sda2
[01:03] <Zues_62> what does that mean exactly
[01:03] <cellojoe> sda1 is the first partition, swap is 2nd, ext3 is 3rd, and finally ntfs
[01:03] <preaction> Zues_62: it means it's not ext3, it's probably ext2, or it's corrupted
[01:03] <oicu812> ok ty, i'll install after work
[01:03] <mneptok> Spliffster: i just use i386 until Macrodobe wakes up
[01:03] <mwe> Zues_62: it means it can't see a journal for the file system. that effectively means its ext2
[01:04] <Chousuke> Zues_62: run fsck on the partition
[01:04] <Zues_62> so if its corrupted how can i fix it
[01:04] <Zues_62> i have
[01:04] <Zues_62> ok how do i
[01:04] <preaction> Zues_62: if fsck doesn't work, you're fscked
[01:04] <mwe> Zues_62: you can't if the journal is lost
[01:04] <inoex135> why is there no hda in /dev ??
[01:04] <Chousuke> inoex135: you only have sata disks?
[01:05] <mwe> Zues_62: if the journal is lost your only option is to recreate the file system, loosing all data on the partition
[01:05] <inoex135> i use notebook
[01:05] <Chousuke> hmmh
[01:05] <ndlovu> I'm getting this error after a somewhat fraught upgrade process. Is it serious? "I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/var/lib/scrollkeeper/(null)/scrollkeeper_cl.xml""
[01:05] <voltagex> inoex135: scsi/sata drives?
[01:05] <Zues_62> oh bugger
[01:05] <Zues_62> how can i do that then
[01:05] <Spliffster> mneptok: good desition. don't expect too much from adoedia tho ... they won't support niche markts. blame the web developers which rely on flash ...
[01:05] <Chousuke> Zues_62: try remounting the partition as ext2
[01:05] <predaeus> oicu812, there is gnash an open flash implementation, that might run on 64bit but it's probably way behind the commercial implementations.
[01:05] <Chousuke> Zues_62: ext2 is ext3 without a journal
[01:05] <inoex135> scsi
[01:06] <Zues_62> not to sure how
[01:06] <Zues_62> how do i do that
[01:06] <mwe> Zues_62: sudo mke2fs -j /dev/whateverthedevnameis
[01:06] <Spliffster> /dev/sdXY where X is the drive numer and Y is the partition number
[01:06] <Chousuke> hmn
[01:06] <Spliffster> for scsi
[01:06] <Chousuke> Zues_62: don't do that yet. :/
[01:06] <Zues_62> do what then i cant do much else
[01:06] <Zues_62> what do i do
[01:06] <Chousuke> Zues_62: try remounting the partition as ext2
[01:07] <Priddo> Hey guys, Can I use FAT32 for the partition running Ubuntu? If not, whats the best File system to use?
[01:07] <Zues_62> how do i do that
[01:07] <Chousuke> mount -o remount -t ext2 /dev/sda2
[01:07] <Chousuke> or something, I suppose
[01:07] <mneptok> Spliffster: heh.
[01:07] <Zues_62> im sure it was ext3 tho
[01:07] <mwe> Chousuke: good thinking
[01:07] <Chousuke> it doesn't matter.
[01:07] <cellojoe> Priddo: nope
[01:07] <cellojoe> ext3
[01:07] <Chousuke> ext3 = ext2+journal
[01:07] <mneptok> Spliffster: i usually make pretty good decisions about Linux usage :)
[01:07] <mwe> Zues_62: ext3 is ext2 with a journal
[01:08] <mneptok> mwe: and a 3
[01:08] <cellojoe> Priddo: 'buntu can read files from fat,but you can't install to it
[01:08] <mwe> Zues_62: so if only the journal is lost you could probably save your data
[01:08] <Chousuke> so if you ignore the journal, you just get an ext2 fs
[01:08] <cellojoe> Priddo: fat has no way of telling ownership
[01:08] <Arta> Hello
[01:08] <mneptok> Zues_62: boot single user mode and use fsck.ext2 on the partition
[01:09] <cellojoe> i leared that trying to share files on my fat partition thru samba
[01:09] <cellojoe> doesnt work
[01:09] <Priddo> Ok, thanks guys
[01:09] <Priddo> So I should make it a ext File System?
[01:09] <Arta> I have a quick question if anyone's willing: I've just switched to ubuntu from windows, and divx playback is *terrible* -- really blocky
[01:09] <inoex135> hehehe thanks
[01:09] <Zues_62> that did nothing man
[01:09] <cellojoe> Arta, using what?
[01:09] <inoex135> i can write into my ntfs now :P
[01:09] <Arta> Is there something better than the method suggested in the ubuntu docs for getting multimedia stuff going?
[01:09] <inoex135> hehehe
[01:09] <cellojoe> program i mean
[01:09] <oxygenws> Arta: hi :D download easyubuntu and have fun :>
[01:09] <cellojoe> hahah
[01:09] <cellojoe> or that
[01:09] <Zues_62> ok so how do i use fsk.ex2 on it
[01:09] <Arta> easyubuntu?
[01:09] <MadDog011> in login screen I have one refresh rate and when I login I have a different refresh rate... Where is the configuration file for KDE USER SPECIFIC refresh rate?
[01:10] <Pooky> can anyone point me to a howto for recompiling packages? I need to recompile the php5-cli :/
[01:10] <Arta> Aha
[01:10] <Zues_62> opps i mean fsck.ext2 on it
[01:10] <Arta> Thanks, shall have a read

[01:10] <oxygenws> Arta: google it

[01:10] <Spliffster> inoex135: hda is an ide disk, sda is a scsi disk. if you have SATA (ide) then a scsi driver will be used ... and you end up with sdXY

[01:14] <gavan> hi.... can anyone tell me how to get Vim to use the keyring? I'm opening files on a (nautilus FTP connected) drive, and it keeps asking me for passwords everytime i open a file :(((
[01:14] <Zues_62> come on
[01:14] <Zues_62> what do i do now
[01:14] <paradroid> I have this audio file here in Sipro (Real Media) which I got using mplayer -dumpstream which I would like to convert to some proper ;) codec. What would be the best way to achieve this?
[01:14] <Zues_62> GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
[01:14] <paradroid> I have this audio file here in Sipro (Real Media) which I got using mplayer dumpstream which I would like to convert to some proper ;) codec. What would be the best way to achieve this?
[01:14] <cellojoe> Furbs:http://es.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/
[01:14] <cellojoe> better yet http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta
[01:14] <Furbs> hmmm would there be any errors, if i partitioned my hdd, and have home on a new partition then the rest of the os
[01:15] <cellojoe> so have /home on a different partition than the root /?
[01:15] <Furbs> ya
[01:15] <Spliffster> Furbs: thisw would be recommendable even!
[01:15] <cellojoe> i know it's possible and a good idea, but i don't remember how
[01:16] <Furbs> ok
[01:16] <Furbs> and if i upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04 would i need to do anything to the home dir?
[01:16] <cellojoe> back it up?
[01:16] <cellojoe> burn to disk?
[01:16] <Spliffster> Furbs: once your home partition is full, you mount a new hdd, copy all content from the old o the new, mount the new partition as /home and no user can se the difference
[01:16] <cellojoe> save to offsite location deep underground?
[01:16] <Spliffster> and with LVM you can even expand it further
[01:17] <gavan> Is there any way to debug what nautilus does over an FTP connection? My conn keeps getting reset, with weird errors..
[01:17] <cellojoe> after you install the new one, you can change the /home folder location in System > Administration > Users and Groups
[01:17] <Furbs> nahh i mean
[01:17] <cellojoe> but i think theres a way to do it during install
[01:17] <Furbs> say i'm on 6.10
[01:17] <cellojoe> you're on 6.10
[01:17] <Furbs> and i want to upgrade to 7.04
[01:17] <Furbs> would i need to backup the home dir if its on the new partition
[01:17] <Furbs> ?
[01:18] <cellojoe> why is there a new partition?
[01:18] <predaeus> gavan, you could use wireshark as root, see Applications/Internet/Wireshark(as root)   to debug package transfer.
[01:18] <predaeus> gavan, Wireshark is a package sniffer.
[01:18] <Furbs> cellojoe because if i don't need to do backup, it is alot easyier
[01:18] <phatmonkey> trying to import some photos from a canon camera, "import photos" dialogue says "An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device."
[01:18] <cellojoe> so just don't format that partition
[01:18] <cellojoe> and you'll be fine
[01:19] <cellojoe> right now is /home on the same partition as the rest of the system files?
[01:19] <Zues_62> guys i get this error
[01:19] <Zues_62> when trying to mount a drive

[01:19] <Zues_62>        in some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[01:19] <Zues_62>        dmesg | tail  or so
[01:19] <cellojoe> maybe thil will help, Furbs
[01:19] <cellojoe> http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/
[01:20] <Zues_62> does anyone knw y
[01:20] <cellojoe> Zues_62: can you type "df" for that drive
[01:20] <cellojoe> waaaait
[01:20] <cellojoe> you can't do anything to it can you ?
[01:20] <Zues_62> what do?
[01:20] <Oetzi> 6
[01:21] <cellojoe> in the terminal type    df
[01:21] <Zues_62> what does df do
[01:21] <somafm> do i need to backup the /DEV folder when making a full system backup?
[01:21] <cellojoe> gives you info
[01:21] <Zues_62> ohhhhhhhh
[01:21] <cellojoe> nothing bad
[01:21] <Zues_62> so do i go df then what sda1?
[01:21] <Ali_ix> somafm: no
[01:21] <somafm> k thanks
[01:21] <cellojoe> just type df
[01:22] <cellojoe> the drive that you can't mount, its just a storage drive?
[01:22] <lynucs> hey guys, how to set the java_home variable?? how to determine the proper path??
[01:22] <Zues_62> nothing bout that drive
[01:22] <lynucs> all links of 'which javac' lead to /usr/bin/ecj-bootstrap
[01:22] <somafm> Ali_ix: what other folders i exclude, assuming i restore this backup to a clean ubuntu install on the same machine?
[01:23] <cellojoe> damn
[01:23] <somafm> can i*
[01:23] <cellojoe> you're sure?
[01:23] <Zues_62> it shld say sda2 rite
[01:23] <Zues_62> coz thats what it always has been
[01:23] <Ali_ix> somafm: basically you need to backup /ets and your /home/USER accont at first
[01:23] <cellojoe> that would make sense
[01:24] <Zues_62> it only shows up one drive
[01:24] <Ali_ix> somafm: so you have backed up your settings, config files and user documents
[01:24] <Zues_62> im using linux now
[01:24] <Zues_62> so what do i do
[01:24] <Ali_ix> somafm: hold on plz
[01:24] <phatmonkey> any reason for no answer to my question, or does nobody have a clue?
[01:24] <somafm> i just want to move my systems exact state, files and everything to a new hard drive
[01:24] <somafm> k
[01:25] <Spliffster> somafm: you woud want to use dd, try $ man dd
[01:25] <cellojoe> thanks Spliff
[01:25] <cellojoe> phatmonkey, whats you're query?
[01:25] <cellojoe> question...
[01:25] <phatmonkey> trying to import some photos from a canon camera, "import photos" dialogue says "An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device."
[01:25] <Zues_62> cell so does that mean my drive is screwed
[01:25] <Ali_ix> somafm: if you need a complete backup/restore soloution try this: http://www.debianadmin.com/create-backup-of-all-packages-using-aptoncd-in-ubuntu.html
[01:25] <phatmonkey> i might just use my mac actually
[01:25] <phatmonkey> tends to work, heh
[01:25] <Ali_ix> somafm: sorry this is the link: http://www.debianadmin.com/backup-and-restore-your-ubuntu-system-using-sbackup.html
[01:26] <cellojoe> zues_62 probably not completely, but it's beyond my powers (and ubuntuforums)
[01:26] <cellojoe> well, mine anyway
[01:26] <phatmonkey> works fine on my mac, nm
[01:26] <Zues_62> so who wld knw
[01:26] <Ali_ix> !info | sbackup
[01:26] <somafm> cool thanks
[01:26] <Zues_62> coz the drive is oviously still there
[01:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about info - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:26] <Furbs> !info home
[01:26] <Spliffster> phatmonkey: is the camery mounted as block device (ie. as harddisk?) .. usually one doe not need to "import" photos .. because these can be accessed directly trough the mounted block-device
[01:26] <ubotu> Package home does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[01:27] <paradroid> Anyone have an idea about converting a Real Media audio file with Sipro codec into something useful?
[01:27] <cellojoe> furbs:http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/
[01:27] <Furbs> cheers
[01:27] <Furbs> //echo http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/

[01:27] <chisimba> hi anyone knows how to adjust the desktop settings. Im running Ubuntu version 5.04
[01:27] <Furbs> nvm
[01:28] <phatmonkey> Spliffster, nope, import photos screen came up automagically. they're on my mac now, thanks for the help anyway
[01:28] <Furbs> mIRC Command
[01:28] <cellojoe> what kind of desktop settings
[01:28] <cellojoe> ah
[01:28] <cellojoe> furbs: what have you learned about using windoze?
[01:28] <chisimba> my browser for instance squashes the sites I visit
[01:29] <Spliffster> phatmonkey: if there is no block device mounted ... it sounds more driver problem. is this camera hfs formatted or does it use fat/vfat ?
[01:29] <cellojoe> i mean, just because the partition manager is running doesnt mean you must revert to windows
[01:29] <Furbs> cellojoe: it crashes to much
[01:29] <cellojoe> :D
[01:29] <cellojoe> damn straight
[01:29] <cellojoe> i got something like 35 Blue Screens since DECEMBER
[01:30] <phatmonkey> Spliffster, doesn't matter now, my mac's sorted it. this isn't my digi cam anyway, mine works fine on ubuntu. thanks
[01:30] <Spliffster> phatmonkey: ok ... i am just passionately curious ... nm
[01:30] <cellojoe> :)
[01:31] <eilker>  i need tux picture, as gif file , playing tux... i cant find it...
[01:31] <cellojoe> playing tux?
[01:31] <phatmonkey> Spliffster, hmm, i suppose it might be a bug
[01:31] <phatmonkey> maybe it's worth finding the problem
[01:31] <Ali_ix> eilker: google it!
[01:31] <eilker> Ali_ix: i do
[01:32] <Spliffster> phatmonkey: it might be .. especially if hfs is onvolved .. i guess not many ppl here have the h/w to test it :)
[01:32] <Spliffster> s/onvolved/involved/
[01:32] <cellojoe> my turn for a question... does any one know how to install fonts? other than apt-get install msttcorefonts. i have .ttf files i'd like to use
[01:32] <cellojoe> i'm wondering where the files are saved
[01:32] <Arta> hmm -- not much better. I think easyubuntu was installing the same things that the ubuntu docs tell you to?
[01:32] <cellojoe> its not ~/.fonts
[01:32] <Ali_ix> eilker: as i see there is at east 10 cleat tux image in the first page (google image search)
[01:32] <gavan> how do i get vim to stop asking for passwords on a FTP connection?
[01:33] <oxygenws> Arta: i used that for a long time and it works amazing for me.
[01:33] <eilker> Ali_ix: i want dynamic image, may be gif file
[01:33] <Arta> Ok
[01:33] <LeoNz> Hey, i'm failing my 3d acceleration test when i test the cedga video test, how do i resolve this?
[01:33] <Arta> Perhaps It's just me :(
[01:33] <Spliffster> cellojoe: hmmm ... i lost how fon'ts work... there were some huge changes since 1997 .. but you might google for that nice fonts mini howto :)
[01:33] <Ali_ix> eilker: dynamic> you mean animated?
[01:33] <oxygenws> Arta: did you install it?
[01:33] <Arta> which?
[01:33] <eilker> Ali_ix: yes
[01:34] <oxygenws> Arta: easyubuntu
[01:34] <Arta> Yup: Installed easyubuntu and then used that to install multimedia codecs
[01:34] <_wraith_> does anyone know a lot about SWAP space and adding more?
[01:34] <NineTeen67Comet> Whelp .. If my wireless card is showing up in lspci/dmesg and in the Network settings BUT doesn't do anything .. what else can I do? (My other computer has the wifi card) .. It is a Linksys WMP54G PCI card .. RT61 chip .. help? (I've worn out the Forums with no help and "just" re-installed)
[01:34] <cellojoe> oooo... the ubuntu title font :) $sudo apt-get install ttf-ubuntu-title
[01:35] <Arta> But I think it installed the same things that this tells you to: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/codecs.html
[01:35] <oxygenws> Arta: please install VLC too, and play your movies with VLC. then try MPlayer
[01:35] <gavan> people, i really need an answer; how do I stop vim from asking for passwords when opening files over an FTP connection?
[01:35] <inoex135> which one is better vls or mplayer?
[01:35] <Arta> Ok, will do -- did try that yesterday but their repository was down
[01:35] <LeoNz> Anyone: I've installed the driver from http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide, yet i haven't fully installed for 3d acceleration, can anyone help?
[01:35] <Spliffster> inoex135: IT'S A MATTER OF TASTE .. TRY BOTH
[01:36] <cellojoe> HA
[01:36] <Spliffster> sry for caps!!
[01:36] <cellojoe> damn
[01:36] <genii_> AAARRRGGG disconnected

[01:36] <Ali_ix> eilker: check here: http://www.babytux.org/gallery.php
[01:37] <_wraith_> I need help with repartitioning to add more swap space
[01:37] <eilker> Ali_ix: thanx friend
[01:37] <cellojoe> hahaha, i have the tux w/rocket launcher as the login wallpaper for XP
[01:37] <cellojoe> that took some registry editing
[01:37] <Ali_ix> eilker: ;
[01:37] <Ali_ix> ;)
[01:37] <cellojoe> HA, regedit... i haven't typed that in a while
[01:39] <lynucs> how do i change owner recursively where root is set, but not where another owner is set?? is there a simple wy to do this?
[01:39] <Spliffster> cellojoe: the problem is, if you have wine installed it will actually come up on your ubuntu box (regedit that is)
[01:39] <cellojoe> HA, it does!!!
[01:39] <Arta> oxygenws: VLC repository is still not working properly -- "Failed to fetch ftp://ftp.videolan.org/[...] /Packages.gz  Unable to fetch file, server said `Packages.gz: No such file or directory  "

[01:40] <cellojoe> it's TINY
[01:40] <nanotalk> hi.. what's the package name that provide /usr/bin/mail ?
[01:40] <Ali_ix> lynucs: chown -R cmmand do this

[01:40] <whatspy> midnight commander doesn't actually "save" my settings, even when I run the "save my settings" command... am I doing something wrong ?
[01:40] <Ali_ix> lynucs: chown -R user: group /folder/
[01:41] <Spliffster> cellojoe: home sweet home ... you are not even missing the transparency and ease of use a tool like regedit gives us all on your linux box. now that's sweet, isn't it ? :D
[01:41] <cellojoe> transparency?
[01:42] <lynucs> Ali_ix: i mean only the files, where root is the owner atm.. all other files should not be touched
[01:42] <Spliffster> cellojoe: i mean the very transparent access to important data ... :d
[01:42] <cellojoe> oh, yeah that
[01:42] <Spliffster> cellojoe: ok ... ok ... this was a bit sarcstic
[01:42] <cellojoe> i figured as much, but i didnt get it at first
[01:42] <Ali_ix> lynucs: you can write some simple one line command with "find" to handle this... i cant remember exact command, google it.
[01:43] <Spliffster> cellojoe: yeah well my english isn't that good ... and my spelling even worse ... so ..
[01:43] <cellojoe> i was messin with the vista notebooks at MicroCenter the other day. the only changes i noticed w/in 5 minutes were....
[01:43] <_wraith_> I think i need to add more swap space, see what happened is this: I had an old machine which died. I picked up another machine which had mode ram and I put the HD from my old machine in it. The old machine had 256mb of sd ram and the new on has 512 ddram. Only prob was, the old HD was nearly full and i added a second HD and i didn't even think about adding more swap and put like 10 gigs of stuff on it. My question is: does it really ma
[01:43] <_wraith_> tter where the swap partition is on the second drive or should it be the first partition of the second drive?
[01:43] <somafm> ali_ix: will using this Sbackup backup all my programs and settings, like mysql stuff, apache, cron jobs, etc?
[01:43] <lynucs> Ali_ix: ok

[01:49] <cellojoe> splif, what are you monitoring on the top panel?
[01:50] <alextj> damn
[01:50] <bowsey-unix> alextj: what kinda prob?
[01:50] <J-_> Spliffster: very cool, never knew google had shtuffs like that.
[01:50] <HotO`> awn seen it while reading the ubuntu wiki
[01:50] <alextj> bowsey-unix, it because extremely slow and unresponsive when I use a simple small gif image as a background to draw on top of
[01:50] <alextj> bowsey-unix, actually when I start zooming in and moving around
[01:50] <Zaggynl> Is there a Filemon for Linux?
[01:51] <Ali_ix> lynucs: nice
[01:51] <bowsey-unix> alextj: do you perhaps have a slow computer?
[01:51] <gordonjcp> Zaggynl: there's lsof, a command-line tool
[01:51] <alextj> bowsey-unix, no. AMD Athlon 64 3000+, 1280MB DDR400, NV GF6800...
[01:51] <HotO`> hey are there any apps software i MUST have?
[01:51] <alextj> bowsey-unix, should be enough?
[01:51] <bowsey-unix> lol. definetly so
[01:52] <cellojoe> firefox
[01:52] <Spliffster> J-_: it's actually not google ... its one project of google's "summer of code 06"
[01:52] <cellojoe> um, a good IRC client, and gaim?
[01:52] <bowsey-unix> this might just be a bug in the GIF library or Inkscape itself
[01:52] <cellojoe> oh, amarok's good
[01:52] <J-_> Spliffster: ah
[01:52] <cellojoe> googles summer of code is pretty sweet
[01:52] <alextj> bowsey-unix, maybe I should try to convert gif to something else first
[01:53] <bowsey-unix> try Sodipodi as an alternative. it's not as advanced as Inkscape, but might be an answer
[01:53] <alextj> bowsey-unix and see if it's gif library problem or not
[01:53] <bowsey-unix> alextj: yup, do that!
[01:53] <bowsey-unix> i recommend Imagemagick for converting
[01:53] <alextj> alright, thanks, ill check it out if nothing else works
[01:53] <bowsey-unix> np
[01:53] <alextj> Gimp no go for converting?
[01:53] <holdenmann> can somebody please help me with my wireless networking problems in edgy eft???????
[01:53] <bowsey-unix> yeah, but w/ Imagemagick you can do it in the commandline
[01:54] <bowsey-unix> it's faster
[01:54] <Spliffster> alextj: gimp is goog, imagemagick is very good for automated batch conversion (on the command line)
[01:54] <alextj> Ah, I see, thanks
[01:54] <bowsey-unix> and you wanna do it as fast as possible, right?
[01:54] <bowsey-unix> wait
[01:54] <alextj> Well, it's only one image... So it doesn't matter if I do it in one minute or 1 second
[01:54] <bowsey-unix> sudo apt-get install imagemagick  and then try man convert
[01:54] <alextj> But it's good to know there is imagemagick, if I ever need that
[01:55] <bowsey-unix> try converting your holiday photos 1 by 1 via gimp :)
[01:55] <alextj> bowsey-unix, alright, thank you for all the tips

[02:01] <bowsey-unix> alextj: that is the problem my friend :)
[02:01] <bowsey-unix> gif is not really an open standard, that is why it probably wasn't installed
[02:01] <HotO`> hum.. can anyone tell me how can i get my webcam working?
[02:02] <alextj> bowsey-unix, wth, I selected libgif4 for installation, and now it says I need to remove something like 30 other packages first
[02:02] <HotO`> its a free webcam creative webcam
[02:02] <bowsey-unix> alextj: does it say that you SHOULD remove them or that it WILL remove them?
[02:02] <alextj> bowsey-unix, To be removed:.... and list
[02:02] <alextj> bowsey-unix, required

[02:08] <lkthomas> guys
[02:08] <alextj> well, go figure
[02:08] <bowsey-unix> alextj: :) oki
[02:08] <lkthomas> why new version of kernel does not have ip_conntrak anymore ?
[02:08] <foormea> i just installed xserver-xorg's update, 3d won't work now. X launches fine but whenever i wanna use 3d it'll kill X. i tried downgrading but the problem persists. any idea?
[02:08] <Aaronformchina> i cann't see my disk's partitions when i install 6.10/7.10... why?
[02:08] <foormea> i'm on nvidia
[02:09] <bowsey-unix> alextj: i'm affraid i have no idea about that, sorry dude / gal... :(
[02:09] <holdenmann> because the laptop will pick up my belkin pcmia wireless G card but not the usb card i don't want to use that card in that lappy because i use it on this computer and i don't want to use the usb on this one
[02:09] <alextj> bowsey-unix, dude, yes, haha, it's a weird one indeed. Thank you very much for your help!
[02:09] <bowsey-unix> np
[02:09] <Aaronformchina> Help.......i cann't see my disk's partitions when i install 6.10/7.10... why?
[02:09] <Ali_ix> foormea: are you installed nvidia drivers?
[02:09] <bowsey-unix> foormea: u gotta install the nvidia proprietary drivers
[02:09] <foormea> they are installed
[02:09] <Dimensions> Hiya Guys ... I have installed xdialog but can't find it ... how do it run it... ?
[02:10] <Ali_ix> foormea: try binary (official) nvidia drivers
[02:10] <foormea> it worked perfectly before the update
[02:10] <foormea> yeah that's the ones i've got
[02:10] <foormea> oh hum
[02:10] <foormea> do you think the update might have broken my nvidia stuff?
[02:10] <Spliffster> Dimensions: have you tried to start it fro mthe consle?
[02:10] <foormea> kernel is still the same
[02:10] <Ali_ix> foormea: you may need to update drivers (wait for update)
[02:10] <Spliffster> Dimensions: if you are on a gtk based system (ie gnome) then you also might give zenity a try
[02:10] <bowsey-unix> foormea: updates have broken many other things, so it might very well be
[02:11] <Ali_ix> vga drivers is tightly based on xorg proprties
[02:11] <foormea> yeah but i don't understand, when i downgrade to the previous xserver-xorg, the problem is still there
[02:11] <foormea> i see
[02:11] <holdenmann> would wiping the entire hard disk and then reinstalling edgy eft with my usb card plugged in install it?
[02:11] <Dimensions> Spliffster:  im on ubuntu ... and have installed xdialog with apt-get ... will run it from console only if i could find where it is ...
[02:12] <bowsey-unix> foormea: did you try doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to set the drivers?
[02:12] <foormea> Dimensions> updatedb          then use         locate
[02:12] <Ali_ix> foormea: upgrade may affected some configurations. try to reinstall drivers from the begiining on new xorg version
[02:12] <Spliffster> Dimensions: you can check with synaptic or apt-cache which files were installed with which package
[02:12] <foormea> Ali_ix> roger that
[02:12] <Spliffster> Dimensions: it's most probably in /bin/ /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin and therefore in your $PATH
[02:13] <cellojoe> ha, any one got ideas for random restarts in windows? :P
[02:13] <foormea> bowsey-unix> nope didnm't try that. what does dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg do? (i mean i know dpkg-reconfigure but i wanna know what conf file it's gonna change)
[02:13] <zhangch> a
[02:13] <Ali_ix> /etc/X11/xorg.cong will be rewritten
[02:14] <Spliffster> cellojoe: not sure if i understand you right. if you are looking for a solution to randomly restart windows ... just boot it and wait :-P
[02:14] <foormea> same as debconf ?
[02:14] <bowsey-unix> Ali already answered :)
[02:14] <cellojoe> Spliffster: haha, good answer, but someones windows box is restarting randomly.
[02:14] <foormea> i'll see. thanks!
[02:14] <cellojoe> way to use your head, tho
[02:14] <Dimensions> Spliffster:  have checked all those location including /usr/sbin /usr/bin /bin etc etc ... can't find it ... while which doesn't show it ... and apt-get says its installed
[02:14] <bowsey-unix> foormea: just run it and see for yourself! it sets up all things related to X, from graphics card to mouse
[02:15] <foormea> my xorg.conf is perfect already :D okay anyway
[02:15] <foormea> i'll try that
[02:15] <Spliffster> cellojoe: bad ram, goofy drivers, corrupt registry ... funny services ... there are plenty of possibilities and no usable logs .... good luck troubleshooting
[02:15] <cellojoe> thanks
[02:16] <Spliffster> Dimensions: use synaptic if you are not familiar with apt-cache. search for the package, rightclick and select properties. if it is instaleld you can see the list of all installed files
[02:16] <holdenmann> not to be pushy but can anybody help me with my problem with my card?
[02:16] <itch_> Hello guys. I know this may actually sound lame, but I`m in a bit of trouble. I`m trying to mount a NTFS partition via fstab, so that all users from the "users" group can acceess it. So, in fstab file, my options are : auto,ro,gid=100 . But no good, because when I try to access the mounted nfts partiotion, I get "access denied". What did I do rong ?
[02:17] <Ind[y] > adding "vesafb=1024x768" as a kernel parameter will enable framebuffer support to my console?
[02:17] <Spliffster> itch_; add users to the options so users can mount the partition not only root
[02:17] <pjrodz> hi everyone! newbie here
[02:18] <holdenmann> ok seeing as nobody is willing to help is there any irc channels dedicated to networking problems?
[02:18] <myte> itch_: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_mount_Windows_partitions_.28NTFS.29_on_boot-up.2C_and_allow_users_read_and_write_access
[02:18] <pjrodz> anyone here tried burning dvds with ubuntu?
[02:19] <Ind[y] > adding "vesafb=1024x768" as a kernel parameter will enable framebuffer support to my console?
[02:19] <holdenmann> hello?
[02:20] <Zaggynl> Hi, I'm trying to find a way to mimic Filemon as close as possible, ' sudo watch --interval=1 --differences lsof' gives me the right info, but I would like to view this in a scrollable window
[02:20] <Zaggynl> I tried with zenity and dialog, but the output comes out garbled
[02:21] <pjrodz> anybody here tried burning cd/dvds with ubuntu?
[02:21] <Spliffster> Zaggynl: if you want fine control you must use a propper language with gtk bindings like perl,C or python
[02:21] <HowlingMad> is there a package like w32codecs on debian to get all codecs working on debian also how do i get mplayer with 6.10
[02:21] <Zaggynl> darn, I can't really code
[02:22] <pjrodz> what's the best mp3 player for ubuntu?
[02:22] <HotO`> xmm
[02:22] <HotO`> xmms
[02:22] <Spliffster> Zaggynl: AFAIK python is pretty easy to learn
[02:22] <Zaggynl> hm, okay
[02:22] <Spliffster> Zaggynl: i know many other languages os i can't really say out of experience
[02:22] <finalbeta> HowlingMad: duno, ask in #debian
[02:22] <Zaggynl> pjrodz, xmms, amarok, quodlibet, beep are some of the popular choices
[02:23] <HowlingMad> sorry i mean in ubuntu
[02:23] <pjrodz> cool!! thanks zaggynl
[02:23] <Zaggynl> you're welcome, remember, search on synaptic first ;-)
[02:24] <pjrodz> i'm using amrok now.....but i'm looking for something like winamp
[02:24] <cellojoe> i like amarok
[02:24] <Zaggynl> xmms can resemble winamp very well
[02:24] <pjrodz> thanks so much!! :)
[02:24] <darkdude> Hi!
[02:24] <pjrodz> i will try xmms
[02:25] <Spliffster> Dimensions: oh btw, the obligatory $ man packagename :D
[02:25] <pjrodz> have you guys tried burning cds/dvds in ubuntu?
[02:25] <Zaggynl> yes
[02:25] <Zaggynl> dvd burning is slow, but alsmost never fails, cd burning goes fine
[02:25] <darkdude> No cd burner :(

[02:29] <blackes1> hi can anyone tell me how to get bash shell instead of dash
[02:29] <zyth> holdenmann, http://opensource.bureau-cornavin.com/belkin/index.html
[02:29] <holdenmann> thanks
[02:29] <darkdude> Type bash
[02:30] <darkdude> But if that doesn't work..
[02:30] <pjrodz> wow almond skin is slick man
[02:30] <darkdude> sudo apt-get install bash
[02:30] <Bokeh> how on earth did you get dash as the default shell by accident? :D
[02:30] <zyth> Bokeh, it IS the default shell in edgy
[02:30] <Bokeh> it is?
[02:30] <darkdude>  chsh -s bash to make deafult
[02:31] <zyth> Yes, it is.
[02:31] <Bokeh> ok, weird
[02:31] <darkdude> I got bash in edgy
[02:31] <Bokeh> yeah, same here
[02:31] <zyth> sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash to select it as shell or not
[02:31] <foormea> hey
[02:31] <blackes1> and feisty trouble is itbreaks stuff
[02:31] <Bokeh> both upgraded and clean installs
[02:31] <foormea> i reinstalled nvidia drivers, works fine now
[02:31] <darkdude> Any way to tell what your graphics card is?
[02:31] <zyth> hmm, might be feisty its the default in.  Regardless, yea.
[02:32] <pjrodz> noob question: do i still have to install nvidia drivers or does it come with edgy eft?
[02:32] <blackes1> bash is an invalid shell. :(

[02:32] <IdleOne> holdenmann, just because acting like a spoiled brat got you attention this time and maybe a solution to your problem does not mean that it was the right way of going about it. Linux in general and Ubuntu require alot of patience and reading so dont be affraid to use google and to try and find the answer yourself. ( wiki.ubuntu.com ) <---great place to search for help
[02:32] <darkdude> Oh and to make bash deafult: chsh -s bash <user>

[02:44] <cellojoe> by here i mean the free (as in freedom) world of linux
[02:44] <darkdude> Yeah
[02:44] <darkdude> cd= change directnary

[02:46] <Spliffster> empylap, Toma-: just open nautilus, hit CTRL+L and then type: ftp://user:password@server/dir/path/blah
[02:46] <Toma-> ewww nautilus :)
[02:47] <Spliffster> there is no need for a seperate ftp program. natilus also supports scp, smb and prolly a whole bunch of other protocols i am not aware of
[02:47] <darkdude> Is there a good password cracker other than John?
[02:47] <darkdude> I'm a security expert
[02:47] <Spliffster> darkdude: that's what they all claim
[02:47] <Spliffster> to be
[02:47] <darkdude> I know...
[02:47] <blackes1> darkdude sudo rm /bin/sh sudo  ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh sorted my bash problem
[02:47] <voltagex> darkdude: then you'd know other crackers
[02:47] <Spliffster> darkdude: but you wouldn't ask thinks liek this here ... would you ?
[02:47] <IdleOne> not much of an expert if you dont know already
[02:47] <voltagex> "You do not appear to have the sources for the 2.6.17-10-server kernel installed." << I installed kernel-source, that's when compiling zaptel on Ubuntu

[02:48] <darkdude> g2g
[02:48] <Toma-> Make your own using your expert skills
[02:48] <darkdude> bye! :)
[02:48] <holdenmann> ok..
[02:48] <Bokeh> most likely you will need to link /usr/src/linux to your current kernel sources, voltagex
[02:48] <predaeus> g
[02:48] <holdenmann> ?
[02:48] <Bokeh> roflol
[02:48] <Bokeh> that was funny :D
[02:48] <Spliffster> voltagex: are you sure you have the right kernel sources/headers ... is there anything in /usr/src/linux ? or might there be a symlink missing ?
[02:49] <voltagex> Spliffster: I think I'll do what Bokeh said
[02:49] <Spliffster> Toma-: hehe ... good one :D
[02:49] <kelsa|martalli> Did opera get taken out of the feisty repositories?

[02:56] <PriceChild> Toma-, there are live cds out there and vmware images I'm sure...
[02:56] <Aaronfromchina> can someone help me ?  I type sudo fdisk -l on livecd and get nothing results.  what's the problem??? I have MSwindows on disk.
[02:56] <erUSUL> Aaronfromchina: a sata disk should appear as /dev/sdx where x is a letter
[02:56] <Spliffster> Luke: nae seriously, i can't remeber the name .. there is a command line utility to find the uuids of the partitions
[02:56] <erUSUL> Aaronfromchina: maybe the livecd has not detcted the hard disks... which sata controller do you have?
[02:56] <Luke> Spliffster: ok i'll google more then. thanks. do you know why ubuntu uses UUIDs in fstab now?
[02:56] <Toma-> PriceChild: good call :) downloading a qemu image now
[02:56] <Priest-of-Psi> Spliffster: you know how to install new hard drives in ubuntu?
[02:57] <tom47> just did apt-get update .... all errors ... are repos ok??
[02:57] <colsham> voltagex, thks but how?
[02:57] <voltagex> colsham: with an image editor
[02:57] <orangefly> is there a real difference between servers dapper and edgy....??....
[02:57] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: I'm using MSI 915 motherboard, don't know the sata controller parameters excatlly?
[02:57] <Toma-> gah. 500mb :<
[02:57] <HotO`> hey can anyone tellme how i can install kiba dock  and desklets on my ubuntu 6.10
[02:57] <IdleOne> tom47, what errors?
[02:57] <tsb> I switched the default charset to iso-8859-1 and now I want utf-8 back.. not quite sure how I did it; is modifying /etc/enviroment enough? "locale" gives "en_US", I assume this is iso-8859-1 as utf-8 would be "en_US.UTF-8" correct?
[02:57] <colsham> voltagex, i use gimp, any compressor in it?
[02:57] <tom47> Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-backports/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[02:57] <tsb> On a gentoobox, locale gives "posix". I am pretty sure it uses utf-8, how can I find out exacly?
[02:58] <Priest-of-Psi> is there any temprature monitors for ubuntu?
[02:58] <voltagex> colsham: yes, save the JPG then lower the quality when given the option
[02:58] <Priest-of-Psi> errr ubuntu = gnome
[02:58] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: I think you are right. I tried sudo fdisk /dev/sda, b, c. same blank.
[02:58] <lorsche> i always get "Cannot Eject Volume" with any external storage device. how do i fix this?
[02:58] <colsham> voltagex, thks again.
[02:58] <tom47> IdleOne Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-backports/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[02:58] <Spliffster> Luke: i do not know why and you can still use /dev/hdaX. AFAIK the UUID's make sense with hotpluggable devices (usb/firewire) whee the same device can be mounted on a variety of device names ... but a programm (like nautilus) should be able to detect the device .. the uuid is unique to the device instead of using a chaing device node
[02:58] <tom47> IdleOne just one example
[02:59] <IdleOne> tom47, not sure what error code 2 means
[02:59] <erUSUL> Aaronfromchina: do 'dmesg | grep sd' and see if the kernel has detected the disks...
[02:59] <Luke> Spliffster: so it would be safe to change them all back to /dev/* ?
[02:59] <Bokeh> yes
[02:59] <Luke> Spliffster: i've already done it for some but I just didnt know and cant really find docs on it
[03:00] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: dmesg | grep sd      blank result as well.
[03:00] <Bokeh> i personally hate the UUID entries in fstab for fixed devices
[03:00] <Spliffster> Luke: basicly you can do that ... it used to work before.
[03:00] <colsham> ?
[03:00] <lorsche> !volume-manager
[03:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about volume-manager - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:00] <Luke> Spliffster: ok thanks
[03:00] <Spliffster> Bokeh: yeah .. i personally do not see the need for using uuid's for internal devices
[03:00] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: my experience is that dapper is able to detect my sata controller, 6.10, and 7.04 is NOT
[03:00] <erUSUL> tsb: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales' and 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure locale-conf'

[03:01] <tom47> IdleOne again just a random example
[03:01] <erUSUL> Aaronfromchina: maybe you have to try acpi=off or noacpi or some other boot option
[03:01] <Spliffster> ok kids .... gona kill hordes in BF2142 ... cu l8r

[03:01] <predaeus> Priest-of-Psi, there is the gnome sensors applet, x-sensors, and the nvidia settings application provides heat info about nvidia based gfx cards.
[03:01] <tsb> erUSUL: are you sure it is "locale-conf" ?
[03:01] <Priest-of-Psi> predaeus: yup thanks
[03:02] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: did you say reboot and use acpi=off / noacpi option?
[03:02] <erUSUL> tsb: maybe is localeconf or something like that
[03:02] <Priest-of-Psi> can you remount the fstab?
[03:02] <osfameron> how I can I check from command line what network traffic my machine is doing (upload/download)  ?

[03:03] <orangefly> does anyone here even use ubuntu server....???....
[03:03] <predaeus> Priest-of-Psi, mount -a mounts everything in fstab, probably need to do a umount -a before or something
[03:03] <predaeus> Priest-of-Psi, see "man mount" for details
[03:03] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: Thank you very much. I'll go and try.
[03:04] <Priest-of-Psi> predaeus: yeah

[03:10] <predaeus> Priest-of-Psi, do a "ls -l /mnt/media" and see if users are allowed to read/write to that directory
[03:10] <Bokeh> if you click on that, you should be able to select your application and start translating strings, IR
[03:10] <ruffles> some of my video files have weird noises when i try to play 'em on mplayer or totem, however when i play 'em with vlc selecting MONO they'll work ok. what could i do?
[03:10] <steel_lady> anybody knows some program to convert avi o mpeg to wma?
[03:10] <NotKevinBacon> does "/j java" not work in xchat?
[03:11] <steel_lady> sorry avi o mped to wmv
[03:11] <IR> ok thanks !
[03:11] <ubotu> IR: launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[03:11] <ruffles> steel_lady: i guess vlc can do that
[03:11] <IR> ok i will register now
[03:11] <Priest-of-Psi> predaeus: well it says root:root?
[03:11] <IR> thank yiu
[03:11] <IR> you
[03:11] <Priest-of-Psi> so I presume they may not
[03:11] <Priest-of-Psi> jeanre@jeanre-desktop:/mnt/media$ touch test
[03:11] <Priest-of-Psi> touch: cannot touch `test': Permission denie
[03:11] <Bokeh> oh, by the way, now that i have the time anyways: i still have a major issue with 2 new desktops and networking: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/54911
[03:11] <steel_lady> ruffles, really? how?
[03:12] <Priest-of-Psi> ok now I am confused
[03:12] <Bokeh> basic recap: i've bought 2 new dell machines for users here, and network doesn't come up on dapper 6.06 LTS

[03:12] <Priest-of-Psi> predaeus:
[03:12] <NotKevinBacon> predaeus, is #java on EFnet?
[03:12] <Priest-of-Psi> /dev/hdb1       /mnt/media      ext3 auto,owner,users,rw 0 1
[03:12] <Bokeh> after the machine's booted and i do a manual /etc/init.d/networking restart, ifup -a --force it does work
[03:12] <Priest-of-Psi> that should be fine
[03:12] <ruffles> steel_lady: fire up VLC, go to file / wizard / transcode
[03:12] <predaeus> Priest-of-Psi, that is the owner and group the directory belongs to. what does the xw-x--w--x- thingy infront say
[03:12] <Bokeh> however, it doesn't work during booting: tried a new kernel, driver in kernel as opposed to a module, no luck though
[03:13] <SoulChild> Hey All... is it possible to see images in terminal without Xorg ???
[03:13] <predaeus> NotKevinBacon, there is #java on freenode or maybe it is calle ##java
[03:13] <Bokeh> so i don't know if anyone's encountered this issue before :)
[03:13] <Priest-of-Psi> drwx------
[03:13] <Tom_Kun> hey, anyone around with some idea on how to enable iptables? :)
[03:13] <bjohnson> do /etc/cron.hourly scripts run as root?
[03:14] <Tom_Kun> Trying to get a tap device to get access to the internett frough iptables, but the standard commands for doing this simply does.. nothing? :)
[03:14] <predaeus> Priest-of-Psi, the d means directory the rwx means that the owner can read/write/execute the next 3 - are for the same for the group the last 3 are for others. if it is a - it is not set, so not allowed.
[03:14] <Bokeh> bjohnson: yes
[03:14] <bjohnson> and is running a script as sudo any different than root running it?
[03:14] <factorx> bjohnson, no
[03:14] <Bokeh> bjohnson: no, except for possibly env variables
[03:14] <Priest-of-Psi> I fixed it
[03:14] <Priest-of-Psi> nm
[03:14] <predaeus> Priest-of-Psi, you could do a "sudo chmod +wr /mnt/media" but then everybody can read and write to that directory
[03:14] <Bokeh> but there's an option for that as well :)
[03:14] <SoulChild> how to view images in terminal ???
[03:15] <Domster> bjohnson, and everything else in your .bashrc
[03:15] <bjohnson> I can't figure out why a script that runs fine as sudo isn't running from cron
[03:15] <RoundyT1> so i think i broke something....I "umount" my usbdisk and when  i try to "mount -rw" it says it cannot find it in fstab and some othre place....any ideas??
[03:15] <Ruffles> some of my video files are odd to listen to. any1 could help me with that?
[03:15] <bjohnson> Domster: isn't .bashrc for personal cron jobs?
[03:15] <lorsche> i cannot eject usb drive. help please.
[03:15] <steel_lady> ruffles, I don't see where to tell it to which type of file I want to convert it
[03:15] <Domster> bjohnson, no, it's for profile specific bash stuff
[03:16] <Domster> bjohnson, can you sudo -i then run it
[03:16] <RoundyT1> lorsche, type in a terminal "umount NAME OF DRIVE+LOCATION"
[03:16] <RoundyT1> so i think i broke something....I "umount" my usbdisk and when  i try to "mount -rw" it says it cannot find it in fstab and some othre place....any ideas??
[03:16] <predaeus> bjohnson, probably the paths are wrong. Maybe add a cd command into the script if a specific working directory is needed for the script
[03:17] <bjohnson> I can't get access to it right now .. I'm on a remote machine.  The script is supposed to update it's dynamic dns on an hourly basis and it isn't working
[03:17] <Ruffles> steel_lady, after selecting which file you want to convert i guess it shows you several codec options
[03:17] <Priest-of-Psi> now to get my torrents working better
[03:17] <Priest-of-Psi> predaeus: do you use gnome bt-downloader
[03:17] <steel_lady> ok I see now.
[03:17] <HowlingMad> anybody know how to fix this im getting an error box when launching an avi with media player saying 'requested audio codec famerly.{mp3} (afm=mp3lib) not acailable. enable at compilation. the video plays fine and i have sound , how can i stop this box ?
[03:17] <bjohnson> yeah .. I'll have to double check paths
[03:17] <steel_lady> VLC for win can do it also???
[03:17] <HowlingMad> acailable = available
[03:17] <dyrne> RoundyT1: youre wondering about automount or are you wanting to mount it manually?
[03:17] <Ruffles> steel_lady, i think so
[03:18] <lorsche> RoundyT1: that did it but unmounting from gnome fails.
[03:18] <Ruffles> steel_lady, i've found out that feature accidentally lol
[03:18] <RoundyT1> lorsche, sudo?
[03:18] <steel_lady> it is great!
[03:18] <unimatrix9> what would you use to boot an iso from hard disk? mbr / iso boot from hard disk
[03:18] <steel_lady> the only thing I don't understand at the end about encapsulation
[03:18] <RoundyT1> dyrne, i guess can i automount it with -rw privs
[03:18] <RoundyT1> ?
[03:18] <lorsche> RoundyT1: sudo ain't needed when unmounting from gnome.
[03:19] <RoundyT1> k
[03:19] <RoundyT1> ?
[03:19] <lorsche> RoundyT1: it worked fine till a few days back.
[03:19] <predaeus> Priest-of-Psi, nah I use Azureus
[03:19] <lorsche> RoundyT1: i am using feisty beta btw.
[03:19] <steel_lady> ruffles, I need wmv for my PDA and then I put to transform to it and at the end I am afraid that PDA won't recognize it because of encapsulation
[03:19] <Ruffles> steel_lady, got no clue for that
[03:19] <RoundyT1> ask in #ubuntu+1
[03:19] <mwe> unimatrix9: are you sure it's even possible?
[03:20] <unimatrix9> i hope so, but i think not...
[03:20] <Ruffles> steel_lady, well.. don't choose it unless it's selected by default then..
[03:20] <vio> hiya guys, need help with getting back my Backspace+Shift
[03:20] <RoundyT1> dyrne, how do automount with -rw privs?
[03:20] <vio> when i press them ubuntu edgy logs out
[03:21] <vio> And the AltGr stop working :(
[03:21] <vio> ^^,
[03:21] <vio> i have beryl installed
[03:21] <RoundyT1> vio, look it up on thinkwiki.org

[03:21] <root___> hey! im migrating my install from hda1 to hdb1, all done. How do i install grub and make hbd1 bootable?
[03:21] <Spliffster> vio: use the bery manager and check all key bindings ... beryl replaces the defaut gnome WM metacity with it's own wm ... so keybindings are set by beryl not gnome
[03:21] <vio> thats great.. it's kinda anoyhing..
[03:21] <vio> anoying **
[03:22] <Yakoozee> hi
[03:22] <vio> ah... the log out also?
[03:22] <Priest-of-Psi> hmmm
[03:22] <Priest-of-Psi> I need a better torrent client
[03:22] <steel_lady> ruffles, it didn't work. I got 4 bytes file. how long does it last to convert and is it showing some signs that it is working on it?
[03:22] <Yakoozee> any recommendation for a fast bittorrent client pls?
[03:22] <gordonjcp> bittorrent
[03:22] <gordonjcp> the original and best
[03:23] <erdinger> !livecd
[03:23] <ubotu> Ubuntu Dapper 'Desktop' CD contains a Live CD (Ubuntu that runs straight off the CD and RAM) with an install option. Breezy's Live CD contained no install.
[03:23] <RoundyT1> Yakoozee, the one that is installed automatically works great
[03:23] <Ruffles> steel_lady, it may take quite a while.. the last time it tried it it took like 1 minute i guess.. and i also guess there were a progress bar or something..
[03:23] <Yakoozee> ok,thxguys
[03:23] <rambo3> did they deprocate debootstrap in ubuntu ?
[03:23] <RoundyT1> dyrne, ping!
[03:23] <predaeus> vio, the web says the shift-backspace problem is related to old xgl versions. Probably need to update. As far as I know beryl does not need xgl anymore but works with aiglx now.
[03:25] <dyrne> RoundyT1: sorry im swamped
[03:26] <RoundyT1> lol take your time
[03:27] <foutrelis> hey :)

[03:30] <CypherGary> of my ...
[03:30] <vio> im a newbie at this.. don't really know how to update it... and im not sure i dare
[03:31] <Spliffster> steel_lady: hit CTRL+F2 .. enter xkill [Enter]  then click on the frozen window
[03:31] <Ruffles> ALT+F2
[03:31] <Spliffster> err alt+f2 right
[03:31] <Ruffles> :)
[03:32] <steel_lady> spliffster, I already reported a bug in handling SD cards. after more than a month they asked me some stupid question and now a month more passed and nobody said a word
[03:33] <zeldafan500> omg..
[03:33] <CypherGary> Is there a standard way to do a backup?
[03:33] <zeldafan500> thats alot of users on one channel :O ive never seen so many users on one ir channel before im my whole life!!1111!
[03:33] <cellojoe> i've heard sbackup does a good job. but standard? not really
[03:33] <Spliffster> steel_lady: it's opens source ... nobody must fix that ... and anybody can fix it (including you)
[03:34] <Ruffles> zeldafan500, get used
[03:34] <cellojoe> zeldafan500: i said the same thing the first time was in here... 1203 users

[03:34] <zeldafan500> amazing. simply amazing.
[03:34] <diminthedam> my soundcard stopped working, how can i troubleshoot?
[03:34] <steel_lady> Spliffster: I would pay somebody willing to fix it since I don't know how
[03:34] <CypherGary> cellojoe: Can you backup your home tree while in that tree?  As there is not root account?
[03:34] <zeldafan500> by bying a new one?
[03:35] <vio> how can i fix my wlan drivers?
[03:35] <mwe> !sound | diminthedam
[03:35] <ubotu> diminthedam: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:35] <diminthedam> zeldafan500: its a laptop
[03:35] <zeldafan500> what difference does that make?
[03:35] <diminthedam> mwe: sound event not found
[03:35] <cellojoe> CypherGary: what do you mean "while in that tree"
[03:35] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: Hi.
[03:35] <cellojoe> and do you not have a root acct?
[03:35] <mwe> diminthedam: then follow some of the links ubotu provided :)
[03:36] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: Bad news, the option noacpi and no apic don't work.
[03:36] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: good news is
[03:36] <ubuntuEdgy> can i ask about a beryl setting here ?
[03:36] <cellojoe> if all you're backing up is /home/`whoami` then wrap it all up in a tar ball and call it done
[03:36] <cellojoe> ubuntuEdgy: sure
[03:36] <CypherGary> If I go to backup that tree, where do I put the file?  The file will be in the tree that is being backed up.
[03:36] <Puppy_> How can I customize my keyboard in Ubuntu? (All I want to do is make Cntrl+Alt+Del load up the process manager).
[03:36] <zeldafan500> are we talking about windows or mac?
[03:36] <cellojoe> but #ubuntu-effects might be able to help more
[03:36] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: I move harddrive from sata4 to sata1, it is detected.

[03:42] <coollettuce> and i start with the noapic option and it doesnt work either
[03:43] <Aaronfromchina> coollettuce: sorry, i have no idea.
[03:43] <coollettuce> so should i just use the x86 version?
[03:44] <cellojoe> coollettuce: don't think that'd work. that's why they release two versions
[03:44] <coollettuce> is the x64 a little more buggy or something?
[03:44] <coollettuce> oh
[03:44] <erUSUL> Aaronfromchina: glad to be of some help ;)
[03:44] <coollettuce> its sad to say but i dont get these problems when i install win xp
[03:45] <mwe> you can install the x86 version on amd64
[03:45] <Aaronfromchina> erUSUL: thanks for helping me to solve the problem. I can upgrade dapper to 7.04 by using liveCD now.

[03:46] <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)
[03:47] <erUSUL> Aaronfromchina: no problem, and good luck

[03:48] <michaelpo> hi... how do i start bittorrent-gui?
[03:50] <kane77> ehh how do I update alternatives for java? I need jdk...
[03:50] <mwe> kane77: sudo update-alternative --config java
[03:50] <bulmer> you install the java from sun and then run update-alternatives
[03:51] <mwe> kane77: supposing you installed it with APT
[03:51] <erUSUL> kane77: 'sudo update-alternatives --config java' iirc
[03:52] <kane77> thx, couldnt remember it precisely :)
[03:52] <oc> Why doesnt ubuntu show link sense with ifconfig ? I have 4 NICs, 2 integrated - and 2 on a PCIe card.. All Intel - They would be named eth0..eth3 i assume.. I have identified which is eth0, but it seems impossible to figure what the other ports are as they dont respond in either syslog or ifconfig with link sensing... Any suggestions?
[03:52] <oc> Btw, I cannot just plug and test easily
[03:55] <babo> everytime I change my nameserver to localhost, it gets changed back by my home router. I've already changed swapped it in the gnome Networking widget...
[03:55] <danny> hi! any experiences with 7.04?
[03:56] <bulmer> babo do not allow you dhcp to change your /etc/resolv.conf
[03:56] <gnomefreak> danny: join #ubuntu+1 for 7.04
[03:56] <babo> bulmer: right. how do I do that ?
[03:57] <chili5555> oc: i believe sudo ethtool eth0 will tell you if a link is detected
[03:58] <Ace2016> hi all

[04:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wlan - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:03] <vio> argh..
[04:03] <vio> wlan help needed
[04:03] <Bokeh> shred is file deletion, not filesystem deletion :)
[04:03] <vio> need drivers
[04:04] <Bokeh> need coffee
[04:04] <vio> sure do
[04:04] <vio> and a smoke
[04:04] <Aaronfromchina> need sleep
[04:05] <Bokeh> sleep is overrated
[04:05] <zigma> hello everyone
[04:05] <Bokeh> who needs sleep when you can just fall over unconscious on your keyboard
[04:06] <zigma> I need some help anyone know how to remove a corrupt package in the terminal
[04:06] <Bokeh> shoot
[04:06] <Aaronfromchina> lol
[04:06] <Bokeh> what's the package you need removed, and what's the error message?
[04:06] <zigma> give me a sec to get the message
[04:06] <zigma> E: The package oss-linux needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[04:06] <Bokeh> ew.
[04:06] <Bokeh> oss?
[04:07] <zigma> i just want to remove it so that i might be able to use synaptic package manager
[04:07] <Bokeh> hehe, k
[04:07] <Bokeh> try dpkg --force-all -r oss-linux
[04:07] <Bokeh> as root in a terminal
[04:07] <zigma> thanks
[04:07] <danny> gnomefreak: thanks
[04:08] <elvirolo> hi all
[04:08] <elvirolo> my external usb harddrive doesn't seem to be recognised
[04:08] <zigma> oooh it is doing something
[04:08] <AzMoo> Is it possible to extract a passworded zip without the password?
[04:08] <mwe> AzMoo: no. that's the point ;)
[04:08] <Bokeh> whoops
[04:08] <Bokeh> ctrl-w in the wrong window ftl
[04:09] <zigma> damn it did not work
[04:09] <mwe> AzMoo: you need the password. if not it would be pointless
[04:09] <AzMoo> mwe, well yeah, but I thought there might be some kind of back door. Does it use the password as an encryption key?
[04:10] <Bokeh> zigma: what release are you running?
[04:10] <Bokeh> dapper, edgy, feisty, breezy, or pre-ancient times?
[04:10] <zigma> fiesty fawn
[04:10] <Pici> AzMoo: AFAIK, the only way would be to bruteforce the password
[04:10] <zigma> might just do a full reinstall
[04:10] <mwe> AzMoo: I'm not sure how it works
[04:10] <WorldDomination> hi
[04:10] <elvirolo> ideas anyone?
[04:11] <zigma> hello domination
[04:11] <jolt_> ANyone know how to update ALSA in edgy
[04:11] <rambo3> update ?
[04:11] <jolt_> I keep getting strange errors and not detected with an ice1724 card, it also tends to randomly dissapear and resetting alsa is the only way to fix it
[04:11] <rambo3> jolt_ update alsa-utils or somehting else ?
[04:12] <jolt_> alsa-utils and alsa-base
[04:12] <Aaronfromchina> Bokeh: installing fiesty fawn
[04:12] <jolt_> Also seem to get a eeeprom error in ALSA on the device during boot which is sort of odd for audio
[04:12] <AzMoo> OK, thanks guys. Guess I tell the client that he's screwed :p He zipped up a bunch of his files that he wanted private, passworded them and then deleted both his originals and backups.
[04:12] <rambo3> jolt you mean reseting with /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:12] <Bokeh> rofl
[04:13] <jolt_> ramo Yeah
[04:13] <rambo3> jolt_, yeah that nic cards with eeprom
[04:13] <Bokeh> just for those kind of people there should be an option to electrocute people through TCP-IP
[04:13] <ravi_master> how do I change overlay on the video card from one screen to the other?
[04:13] <jolt_> no the eeprom error is for the ice1724 which i think is odd..
[04:14] <rambo3> dont know . jolt_ picup config for your card from alsa page and paste it in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base instead of ubuntus defailt witch probes everything . and set module parameters
[04:15] <AzMoo> Bokeh, he's a funny guy. He has a history of doing stupid stuff like this. He lost a bunch of data once when he stored his backup tapes in a safe next to the server. Got broken into and they stole both the safe and the server :p He's going to be absolutely livid, but I will be laughing on the inside.
[04:15] <mwe> AzMoo: maybe he can remember if he used a plain word for the pass. if so it should be easy to brute force it
[04:16] <Bokeh> :D
[04:16] <Bokeh> yeah, i've got some of those people here as well
[04:16] <Bokeh> people who ask me to recover a document from 6+ months ago, because they deleted it after they printed it
[04:17] <AzMoo> mwe, true. He thinks he mistyped it when he was putting it in. I don't think it would be too hard to write something that will try different variations and misspellings. Thanks.
[04:18] <AzMoo> Bokeh, Comedy gold.
[04:18] <zigma> sod it full install does not take long at all
[04:18] <Bokeh> hehe, nope
[04:18] <Bokeh> systemimager ftw :P
[04:18] <Apollo^101> i messed with themes. i want to have the default theme of kde in kubuntu. how can i do it?
[04:18] <tim__> elvirolo: after you've plugged in your drive have you run 'dmesg' to see if the kernel has detected it and assigned it to a device?
[04:19] <elvirolo> tim__ : let me try
[04:19] <CAiRO> hi
[04:19] <CAiRO> i have a problem with copy & paste in ubunut, when i select text in my gnome terminal, the selection disappears after 2 or 3 seconds even though i didn't press a key or touch the mouse in the meantime
[04:20] <CAiRO> what could possibly be the cause of this?
[04:20] <ep2011> Anyone know when ubuntu will be ubdated to 2.18? (In repositories)
[04:20] <elvirolo> tim__ : nope, doesn't appear in dmesg
[04:20] <Bokeh> 2.18?
[04:20] <Bokeh> you mean gnome?
[04:21] <Bokeh> 2.18 is in feisty (7.04), so when that's declared stable
[04:21] <Epic720> I am a total noob, I just got 6.10 installed and I can't figure out how to start gnome
[04:21] <mwe> ep2011: program versions are frozen until the next ubuntu release
[04:21] <Answer> Hello, I am running into error "MLME-REPLAYFAILURE.indication(keyid=1 broadcast addr=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff)" very similar to ticket http://madwifi.org/ticket/404.   Can anybody explain to me what this error means or how to get around it?
[04:21] <ep2011> Aw :(
[04:22] <Spliffster> Epic720: gnome should start automaticly. if not your Xwindows (X11) installation has problems with your video card
[04:22] <squeaks> can someone point me to a how-to to get x11 forwarding to work, i think my server is refusing my hosts connections, i'm guessing it is xauth, but i have no indication of where it is going wrong and can't find forum posts with a solution?
[04:22] <Answer> squeaks, you have to run the command "xhost +" first to allow forwarding
[04:22] <Epic720> Spliffster: it never reported any errors
[04:22] <squeaks> Answer, yes
[04:22] <Spliffster> squeaks: check if xauth is even installed. had this problem a few times with ubuntu due to missing xauth
[04:22] <Epic720> Spliffster: I installed from the server disk, and chose LAMP
[04:23] <squeaks> Spliffster, xauth is a valid command
[04:23] <Spliffster> Epic720: is gnome even instaleld ? if so .. try $ startx
[04:23] <Answer> squeaks, on the remote server you have to set the DISPLAY environment variable to your IP (who -u)
[04:23] <Epic720> Spliffster: startx: command not recognized
[04:23] <Epic720> err not found
[04:24] <Spliffster> squeaks: have you checked if /etc/ssh/sshd_conf does allow X forwarding on your remote machine ?
[04:24] <squeaks> it says 'yes'
[04:24] <Spliffster> Epic720: on the console: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:24] <rossman> hey, I just installed feisty and the update manager wants to do a 227 package upgrade.  Is that cool, or is it trying ot hit me with dapper packages?  I have no changed default repos, but I did uncomment universe
[04:24] <Spliffster> squeaks: have you been using ssh -x ?
[04:25] <Apollo^101> any one help please
[04:25] <Bokeh> rossman: feisty is still in development
[04:25] <Spliffster> squeaks: if in doubt try ssh -x -vvv
[04:25] <squeaks> i do ssh -X me@remote, then export DISPLAY=local:0.0, then xclock
[04:25] <squeaks> Spliffster, k
[04:25] <rossman> yar, I get that
[04:25] <Bokeh> so if you installed from cd you will most likely have tons of upgrades
[04:25] <Bokeh> it's normal
[04:25] <rossman> ok
[04:25] <rossman> thanks much
[04:25] <Bokeh> nps
[04:25] <squeaks> Spliffster, and on local i did xhost +(remote) and xhost + again
[04:25] <Spliffster> Epic720: the server cd does not install a desktop environment by default .. you need to add it manually as described in my last msg
[04:26] <Epic720> ok, it is installing now, thank you
[04:26] <Spliffster> squeaks: with ssh you shouldn't need xhosts
[04:26] <Spliffster> squeaks: try ssh -vvv -x .. this is extremely verbous and will show you where the conenction fails
[04:26] <squeaks> Spliffster, doing that now
[04:27] <Spliffster> squeaks: and make sure xauth is instaleld on the remote host ... not on the local
[04:27] <Spliffster> ok .. i am off again killing hordes in BF2142
[04:30] <Answer> squeaks, DISPLAY needs to be what the remote machines sees your IP Address as, in the command "who -u"
[04:30] <yurri> hey
[04:30] <yurri> hey
[04:31] <yurri> how do i join the wine channel/?
[04:31] <MadDog011> in login screen I have one refresh rate and when I login I have a different refresh rate... Where is the configuration file for KDE USER SPECIFIC refresh rate?
[04:31] <Spliffster> Answer, squeaks: DISPLAY must not be set manually when the x session is forwarded over ssh -x .. this should be done by ssh
[04:31] <Answer> squeaks, in my setup it takes two commands.   "xhost +"  then "ssh -X 10.10.10.1   DISPLAY=10.10.10.22:0 xclock"
[04:32] <Answer> squeaks, "xhost +" has to be run on the local machine to allow forwarding
[04:32] <Answer> squeaks, "ssh -X" will allow X11 forwarding
[04:32] <Answer> squeaks, DISPLAY=10.10.10.22:0 sets the display to my machine
[04:32] <yurri> ?
[04:33] <Spliffster> Answer: xhosts is used to allow x conenctions from remote to the local server. because ssh tunnels these conenctions they come from localhost to the xserver thus no xhost should be needed.
[04:33] <Answer> Spliffster, say what you want but it doesn't work unless I run "xhost +" on my local machine first.
[04:33] <squeaks> hey yall, Answer's worked, i just neglected to do DISPLAY=... part
[04:34] <Spliffster> Answer: then you might have a problem with your setup or have changed your x configuration ... are you using ssh ?
[04:34] <bulmer> Answer you are using xhost +  thats allowing all to view your X
[04:34] <AVN`> I am looking to buy a new MP3 player, and want something in the range of an 80 gb video ipod, but something linux compatible.  any suggestions?
[04:34] <squeaks> AVN`, cowon iAudio products
[04:35] <Answer> Spliffster, bulmer,  I am not concerned.  I was just telling squeaks that is what I have to do to make it work on my machine.
[04:35] <somafm> !wireless
[04:35] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:35] <Spliffster> AVN`: i heared nomads are nice .. syndisk has a couple of nice products which are not bound to specific client software
[04:35] <mwe> AVN`: most players just act like an external drive
[04:35] <Answer> Hello, I am running into error "MLME-REPLAYFAILURE.indication(keyid=1 broadcast addr=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff)" very similar to ticket http://madwifi.org/ticket/404.   Can anybody explain to me what this error means or how to get around it?
[04:35] <AVN`> I want it to have a huge storage capacity
[04:35] <bulmer> Answer: you can limit it a little bit, but only allowing a specific up address likes so   xhost +192.168.1.57
[04:36] <Spliffster> squeaks: you should get it working without xhosts really, this is a huge security problem. and ssh -X should set the DISAPLY variable on the local host.
[04:36] <yurri> list
[04:36] <yurri> help
[04:36] <Spliffster> er on the remote host
[04:36] <squeaks> Spliffster, it did set DISPLAY on remote
[04:37] <Spliffster> squeaks: if you ssh -X ... there is no locally set DISPLAY variable ?
[04:37] <squeaks> echo $DISPLAY says localhost:10.0
[04:37] <squeaks> on remote
[04:37] <squeaks> it's working now btw
[04:37] <squeaks> thanks
[04:37] <XangelusX> hi to everyone
[04:37] <XangelusX> One question please
[04:37] <squeaks> i think the solution was just like how i had always done it before ubuntu, but without setting DISPLAY on remote
[04:38] <squeaks> i'm not sure, i'll have a chance to try after a reboot in a few weeks or something
[04:38] <Spliffster> squeaks: ssh -X remotehost "echo \$DISPLAY* .. what does it say ?
[04:38] <Spliffster> squeaks: ssh -X remotehost "echo \$DISPLAY"
[04:38] <XangelusX> anyone knows how to have working the SVGA out of a Via S3 graphic card?
[04:40] <squeaks> Spliffster, "localhost:11.0"
[04:40] <Spliffster> ok then it wasn't a display variable problem :) it seems to be exported propperly
[04:41] <squeaks> it was a 'i thought it was necessary to do this and it broke it' problem
[04:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> Hi!
[04:42] <pandum> test
[04:42] <djwilcox> Im trying to add a cronjob with crontab -e but it never runs
[04:43] <tyler_d> using kopete.... how do I hide the group messages, ie. User has joined/User is away?
[04:43] <djwilcox> also tried adding the cronjob to the system crontab but that doesnt work either
[04:43] <sacater> is there anything in my init.d that i dont need, i would like to make bootitme faster
[04:44] <pandum> I'm looking to buy a desktop computer and install Ubuntu on it. Does anyone know if there is a list of recommended hardware on the ubuntu site?
[04:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> I am on the Feisty Beta 7.04 running Compiz.  A couple of times a day, I have to restart gtk-window-decorator.  How can I figure out why it is dying?  I tried running it in a shell window with --debug, but that didn't produce any useful output.
[04:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> Pandum:  I have not seen one.
[04:45] <bulmer> pandum but what you can afford
[04:45] <bulmer> buy*
[04:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> Pandum:  I have been using Dell Optiplexs' with good success.
[04:45] <djwilcox> whats Feisty like any good for wireless wpa
[04:45] <Answer> djwilcox, redirect the output to a log file in the crontab and then read the error it says.  you probably need to specify the full path
[04:45] <davisc> djwilcox: Worked for me - but so did edgy
[04:46] <nerdygirl_ellie> djwilcox:  I am on a dell with a broadcom wireless nic.
[04:46] <pandum> It's actually my company that is going to buy it. We just want to avoid hardware problems by getting compatible hardware from the start
[04:46] <eltese> anyone know if ubuntu is able to be installed without cdrom or emulation? I want feisty beta :)
[04:46] <nerdygirl_ellie> djwilcox: I had to load ndiswrapper for the dell windows wireless driver, but other than that it works well.
[04:46] <djwilcox> ive got a mac powerbook and have never got wireless working
[04:46] <davisc> eltese: You could debootstrap it
[04:46] <eltese> also! If anyone knows wheter a good recovery program
[04:46] <eltese> davisc: And that means? =)
[04:46] <Hidan> I'm running the Feisty installation process now.  Does anyone here have any idea why I need to mount my fat32 partition as /windows or /dos ? Or should I tell Ubuntu to ignore it?
[04:47] <nerdygirl_ellie> Hidan:  It is trying to be helpful so you can access your windows files from ubuntu
[04:47] <davisc> eltese: Well, are we talking a clean machine here or upgrading from some version of linux?
[04:47] <nerdygirl_ellie> It won't hurt anything to mount it.
[04:47] <Hidan> nerdygirl_ellie: okay dokie... phew...
[04:47] <eltese> davisc: Im gonna dual-boot it with windows but on different partitions
[04:48] <djwilcox> whats the multimedia like in Feisty - can you play flash and video in firefox ?
[04:48] <eltese> only thing is I dont got any clean install cd's
[04:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> hidan: just don't rm -rf / ok..
[04:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> because it will recurse into /dos...
[04:48] <eltese> djwilcox: Why shouldn't you be able to do that? Im guessing its exactly the same as in 6.10
[04:48] <eltese> or edgy
[04:48] <davisc> eltese: You'd be best off downloading the ISO and burning it. Other methods or tricky - to say the least
[04:49] <jacknn> in kubuntu edgy i can connect to the net with wireless assistant but not through network settings. any help ? (it's a laptop)
[04:49] <Hidan> nerdygirl_ellie: okay i've no idea what those commands are used for. Safe to say, it's highly unlikely I'll enable them. =P
[04:49] <eltese> jacknn: I think theres a relatively good wiki on that ... Google ;)
[04:50] <QricasTETONAS> hi. im looking for two boys in the same cam... im a girl with cam!!!!
[04:50] <|cellojoe|> i wonder...
[04:50] <MadDog011> in login screen I have one refresh rate and when I login I have a different refresh rate... Where is the configuration file for KDE USER SPECIFIC refresh rate?
[04:51] <predaeus> Hidan, first thing you could do when seeing a new command is "man commandname" in a console. this will give you a description for most commands. You can scroll the window with the page-up/down keys and quit with the Q key.
[04:52] <eltese> MadDog011: You need to set your refresh rate in xorg conf )=
[04:52] <eltese> =)
[04:52] <predaeus> !offtopic > QricasTETONAS
[04:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> Hidan:  That's good.
[04:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> Go ahead and mount it then.  Have fun.
[04:53] <nerdygirl_ellie> Can anyone tell me how to turn on debugging in gtk-window-decorator?
[04:54] <Hidan> predaeus: thank you for the command. :)

[05:05] <nerdygirl_ellie> rymo: still looking.   on.  Let me see if that is just a simple modprobe.
[05:06] <Answer> ror, why don't you go ask in ubuntu-edgy and see what they say
[05:06] <Puppy_> I was wondering if my computer was normal. I have two Sata hard drives (one with XP and one with Ubuntu), Intel core two duo E6600, and one GB or Ram. I did some tests and was wondering if they look right: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13890/
[05:06] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie thx for giving me your time :)
[05:06] <ror> ok Answer I guess I will
[05:06] <Answer> Lybbels, aptitude search xserver-xorg-core returns that as the package name.  apt-cache search xserver-xorg-core also returns
[05:07] <ror> #ubuntu-edgy is empty
[05:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> rymo_:  Those functions come from the cpufreq kernel modules, which it should autodetect and load.
[05:08] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie i installed newest ubuntu cd, updated, installed linux-686-smp..that's all
[05:09] <nerdygirl_ellie> rymo_:  can you try 'sudo modprobe freq_table'
[05:09] <ferronica> how to uninstall beryl from ubuntu 6.10 completely ??
[05:09] <nerdygirl_ellie> ferronica:
[05:09] <bronze_1_9> hi all, I'm trying to use wget, but I get an err:  I'm missing a library.  apt-get remove and then install on wget did not fix this.  I'm new to apt I need to find out what package provides the missing library (libssl.so.4)  anyone know of an apt tuorial?
[05:09] <Pici> ror: Those are just different release codenames.  Currently Feisty is in beta. you can read more information on the development codenames here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DevelopmentCodeNames
[05:09] <nerdygirl_ellie> ferronica 'sudo apt-get remove beryl beryl-manager emerald'
[05:09] <Spliffster> ferronica: check the beryl wiki .. it's a stept b y step guide for ubuntu 6.10 .. simple and quick
[05:09] <predaeus> !cloning > Aw0L
[05:09] <Lybbels> bye
[05:10] <ror> thank you for your help
[05:10] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie i typed modeproble freq_table..but nothing happened :/ (i typed without sudo..i;m in root account)
[05:10] <Aw0L> predaeus, cloning?
[05:10] <ferronica> Spliffster: link ?
[05:10] <ror> wee xchat2 crashes right clicking it
[05:10] <nerdygirl_ellie> rymo_:  can you see if the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq think exists now?
[05:10] <predaeus> Aw0L, look at the message ubotu sent you. Best package list ive found so far. Please tell me if you find a better one today. I would also be interested in a fast list.
[05:10] <ror> yay for buggy windows implementations
[05:11] <xpaavi> rymo, modprobe, not modeprobe :)
[05:11] <Spliffster> ferronica: www.bery-project.org -> wiki
[05:11] <Cidwel> hi
[05:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Hi Cidwel.
[05:11] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie fatal: cpu_freq not found
[05:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> :(
[05:11] <balzac> i upgraded to feisty fawn
[05:11] <ror> right, clearly the lighthouse-blue theme is unstable in windows :(
[05:12] <ravi_master> can someone give me hand with an ati video overlay on the wrong screen?
[05:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> rymo_:  here are the packages I have related to that.

[05:12] <ravi_master> come on.. use pastebinn
[05:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> sorry.
[05:12] <Aw0L> predaeus, for ubuntu/debian, I don't know that I could find something better
[05:12] <Spliffster> !pastebin | nerdygirl_ellie
[05:12] <ubotu> nerdygirl_ellie: 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)
[05:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> Sorry!
[05:13] <Aw0L> predaeus, I'm a gentoo guy myself - but I'm learning ubuntu
[05:13] <ravi_master> Aw0L: welcome to a fast package management system...
[05:13] <predaeus> Aw0L, did you try the dpkg command that ubotu sent you? it seems to list all currently installed packages
[05:13] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie well fine..but still i don't know what to do with them
[05:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> rymo_: sorry I couldn't help.  my guess is that it can't load the cpufreq module for me.  Over my head now.
[05:13] <Aw0L> predaeus,
[05:14] <rymo_> :(
[05:14] <nerdygirl_ellie> Rymo_: Agreed.  Hot laptops are bad!
[05:14] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie damn..why it can;t :(
[05:14] <Aw0L> ravi_master, like I said, I like debian's package management system, definitely better than any commercial distro - but I think gentoo's portage is a bit more powerful
[05:14] <Aw0L> granted, not as fast, since you compile everything instead
[05:14] <igor> Congratulations ubuntu team, for this new beta release.. you are all great. I was amazed with the details. The applet to inform about restricted modules. its amazing ;-) The applications suite has almost everything needed for any user. Congratulations. (i haven't finished my overview! ;-)
[05:14] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie well hot is nothing..the life time on battery is what concerns me :(
[05:14] <ror> gentoo's portage is gorgeous
[05:15] <Aw0L> ror, definitely
[05:15] <ror> the fact that in portage you can decide you dont' want anything using qt or kde libs, and can compile everyhting without alsa/sound support is amazing
[05:15] <Aw0L> both gentoo and debian based are wonderful compared to other distros
[05:15] <JosefK> hmm, for building from source I still prefer freebsd's ports
[05:15] <Spliffster> nerdygirl_ellie: if you have a pentium M you do not need frequency scaling .. this was an old method before pentium M ... the vanilla kernel will take care of the cpu frequency automagically.
[05:15] <igor> ror: I'm waiting 4 da day when apt-build will do something like portage
[05:15] <Aw0L> I never messed with freebsd
[05:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> you could dmesg and see if it threw an error when you modprobe cpufreq.
[05:15] <Aw0L> one day I'll get around for it
[05:16] <Aw0L> igor, why not just use gentoo?
[05:16] <balzac> i might try the binary gentoo one of these days, but i'm not up for compiling all my own code
[05:16] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie could you type command for me?
[05:16] <ravi_master> Aw0L: you'll see the advantages in apt-get over portage sooner or later, it's a give and take game
[05:16] <igor> Aw0L: I love debian admin tools, and ubuntu distro.
[05:16] <ror> the fact it doesn't take 20 hours to install openoffice? :S
[05:16] <igor> ror: also! ;-)
[05:16] <nerdygirl_ellie> rymo_: 'dmesg'  look at the last few lines for anything that looks suspicious.
[05:16] <Aw0L> ravi_master, I can't see how apt-get is can ever be as powerful as portage - but I would prefer a debian server for some uses
[05:17] <Aw0L> just depends on what I want to use it for
[05:17] <ror> I just nuked a gentoo installation so I'm trying ubuntu now cos I wanna see how easily my parents would handle it
[05:17] <ravi_master> sure, I am speaking strictly as a Desktop system.
[05:17] <balzac> i'm glad gentoo exists and people are still compiling their own installations.
[05:17] <Aw0L> ror, igor just use the binary for open office - it doesn't take too long
[05:17] <Aw0L> ubuntu is definitely easier
[05:17] <Aw0L> but it's not as fast
[05:17] <igor> Aw0L: is it REALLY so fast?
[05:17] <Aw0L> igor, it's faster than ubuntu, yes
[05:17] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie it ask's me about parameters ..the dmesg
[05:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> ?
[05:17] <kitche> !offtopic | Aw0L neither is gentoo unless you count the 0.0000001% increase
[05:18] <ubotu> Aw0L neither is gentoo unless you count the 0.0000001% increase: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:18] <Aw0L> you won't really notice a difference unless you're installing on old hardware
[05:18] <igor> Aw0L: how much fast? 5%?
[05:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> no parameters, just dmesg
[05:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> odd.
[05:18] <igor> Aw0L: understood ;-)
[05:18] <orangefly> in a server, i have 2 drives with a hardware raid 1 for the os and 3 drives in a hardware raid 5 for data....do i want the swap on the data drives....???....
[05:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> it dumps the current log.  odd.
[05:18] <ravi_master> igor: no concrete numbers can be thrown at it, it varies with the package
[05:18] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie i typed dmesg modprobe cpu_freq ...and it asked about usage: dmesg [-c]  .....
[05:18] <ror> for some stuff it's worth compiling yourself, especially if you find your games or video players aren't built with sse2 support
[05:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> orange:  On a server You want the swap in ram!
[05:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> ry:  no it is just dmesg
[05:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> no parameters.
[05:19] <Aw0L> kitche, didn't mean to get off-topic
[05:19] <ep2011> Does anyone know if Shipit will be shipping feisty fawn when it releases?
[05:19] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie well i typed like that..but it asked about parameters :/
[05:19] <sdfg> what is the capacity of ram to install the kubuntu?
[05:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> Odd!
[05:19] <dyfrgi> update-grub seems to want me to have splash and quiet in my kernel options. I do not. How do I tell it to stop?
[05:19] <sdfg> i mean the requered ram
[05:19] <dyfrgi> I tried editing defoptions, but it just sets it back again.
[05:19] <orangefly> nerdygirl_ellie: ok....how the hell do you do that....???....
[05:19] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie linux is odd for me :P
[05:19] <Spliffster> sdfg: i have managed to install it with 64mb
[05:19] <Cidwel> ehmm... i have a question, anyone knows if the Intel pentium core 2 duo works nicely in ubuntu? and... why that core is less potentially than an old pentium 4 ?
[05:20] <Spliffster> sdfg: but that's the absolute minimum and slooooow
[05:20] <sdfg> i have 128 mb
[05:20] <ror> this seems odd but ubuntu installer never asked me for a root password, is the user created in wheel?
[05:20] <Spliffster> sdfg: you might want to try xubunt then .. it is by far less ressource hungry than kde
[05:20] <igor> Cidwel: cause you have 2 and yes.. it works
[05:21] <Spliffster> sdfg: xubuntu is using xfce as desktop environment
[05:21] <ravi_master> Cidwel:  what do you mean by "core is less than an old pentium 4"??
[05:21] <Aw0L> ror, ubuntu doesn't give root a password
[05:21] <crdlb> Cidwel, a core 2 duo will work very well and be a lot faster than any pentium 4
[05:21] <Pici> ror: Ubuntu uses a sudo, and the default user is in the sudoers file.
[05:21] <dyfrgi> Wow, that's horribly lame.
[05:21] <Aw0L> ror, set a root password by " sudo passwd"
[05:21] <sdfg> spliffster:and i try to install the fedora core 6 under ram 128 and don t install it
[05:21] <ravi_master> Cidwel: Core 2 Duo > P4. no doubt.
[05:21] <igor> ror: you have to use sudo for everything
[05:21] <dyfrgi> It's just impossible to do what I want to do. It simply doesn't make that option available.
[05:21] <haykuro> Hello! I've just recently made the switch (once again) to ubuntu, after hearing about the Edgy 6.10, and I'm very pleased with it. The only problem I'm experiancing now is when i attempt to install my graphics drivers, and add them xorg.conf, a big black bar appears on the right side of my screen, and a mirror image on the bottom.. Can someone help me get this working? My brother is using the exact same setup as me but it works for
[05:21] <haykuro> him. I'm using a nvidia geforce 440 GO
[05:21] <dyfrgi> "YOU WANT THESE OPTIONS", says update-grub, and there's no way to tell it otherwise.
[05:21] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie fine..that command should look like: dmesh | modprobe cpu_freq     ? but it gave that same message (that about not found)
[05:21] <igor> ravi_master: each core ;-)
[05:22] <Cidwel> thanks all answers :)
[05:22] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie dmesg!
[05:22] <RobHu> I did a dist-upgrade in feisty, but it broke my system. Beforehand I made a lvm snapshot of / Is there a command that will restore / to the state it is in the snapshot?
[05:22] <ravi_master> igor: what?
[05:22] <crdlb> haykuro, what card?
[05:22] <Aw0L> ror, typing "sudo" for everything will drive you insane - but setting a root password is easy - then you can get your hands dirty
[05:22] <Spliffster> Cidwel: more than one cpu is always a little overhead ... so 2 cpus are not as fast as one which has doupble power. there is always overhead distributing/controlling tasks to multiple cpus.
[05:22] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdfg:  with 128 it will be faster with xubuntu.  If you get kubuntu installed and it is too slow, then 'apt-get install xfce-desktop' will switch you to xubuntu.
[05:22] <kitche> RobHu: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support
[05:22] <Cidwel> ravi_master, my old p4 was 2.6ghz, the core duo have 2.4 :S
[05:22] <RobHu> kitche: ok...
[05:22] <nerdygirl_ellie> Awol/Ror:  correct.
[05:22] <igor> ravi_master: each core on core duo runs at slower speed.. but can do 2 operations at "same" time
[05:22] <ravi_master> Cidwel: Clock speed is the worst measure of performance
[05:22] <MFen> does anyone know how to bring back the gaim system tray icon if you accidentally remove it?
[05:22] <RobHu> The question would apply to any Ubuntu of course, as it's about lvm
[05:23] <MFen> gaim 2.0.0beta3.1 and gnome on edgy.
[05:23] <Spliffster> Aw0L: you can sudo -i and have a root shell
[05:23] <igor> ravi_master: i understood what did you said ;-)
[05:23] <Cidwel> omg, ok, thanks :=)
[05:23] <crdlb> MFen, look in the plugins
[05:23] <nerdygirl_ellie> or sudo su -
[05:23] <ror> typing sudo for everything is only annoying because as soon as you type it you can no longer tab-complete commands
[05:23] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie ?
[05:23] <Aw0L> Spliffster, didn't know that one
[05:23] <Spliffster> ror: you can sudo -i and have a root shell
[05:23] <ravi_master> in reality, it's more than 2 operations because they use pipelining
[05:23] <igor> ravi_master: bogomips is the "better" way ;-)
[05:23] <balzac> or sudoku
[05:23] <Aw0L> I still like just setting a root password though :)
[05:23] <ror> yes, or sudo su - ;)
[05:23] <nerdygirl_ellie> rymo:  I don't have an answer.  sorry. :(
[05:23] <Cidwel> anyway, p core 2 duo is better than p4 :D
[05:23] <MFen> crdlb: yeah, the system tray plugin. it isn't helping.. i said tray icon > remove and ever since then, the tray icon has no effect
[05:23] <haykuro> @crdlb: nvidia geforce 440 GO
[05:23] <rymo_> nerdygirl_ellie fine :(
[05:23] <igor> ror: or sudo bash
[05:23] <Spliffster> ror: rright but sudo su - will mes up your ENV variables
[05:24] <Aw0L> or "sudo rm -r /usr/lib"
[05:24] <crdlb> haykuro, what version did you install?
[05:24] <Aw0L> that should do it too
[05:24] <igor> Cidwel: yes it is.. far better
[05:24] <MFen> crdlb: i've disabled and enabled it
[05:24] <Aw0L> no wait, scratch that
[05:24] <ravi_master> igor: pipelining architecture allows each core to execute 3 instructions per cycle
[05:24] <nerdygirl_ellie> awol no.  that is naughty.
[05:24] <Cidwel> ok thanks all :D
[05:24] <nerdygirl_ellie> (spanks awol)

[05:24] <igor> ravi_master: I really dunno about this ;-) thankz ;-)
[05:24] <Mydoom666> What's the snapshot command in a terminal please ? (Scuze my bad English, i'm French :p)
[05:24] <sacater_> is it possible to boot into an older kernel
[05:24] <Spliffster> gaaaah java alert *whoop* whoop*
[05:25] <ror> I change sudo to not prompt for password usually so it's no problem just to sudo everything, it's only software installation that needs admin rights anyway really
[05:25] <sacater> sorry
[05:25] <sacater> is it possible to boot into an older kernel
[05:25] <nerdygirl_ellie> sacater: yes, if it is installed, you can quickly hit escape to reach the grub menu and select the older kernel
[05:25] <igor> sacater: yes it is
[05:25] <crdlb> MFen, are you sure you still have a "notification area" in your panel?
[05:25] <Spliffster> sacater: yes if you add it to your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:25] <sacater> nerdygirl_ellie: well i am using 13 and went to try 11, but i got kernel panic
[05:25] <MFen> crdlb: no..
[05:26] <MFen> crdlb: OOPS.  heh. thanks. :)
[05:26] <Spliffster> sacater: then hit ESC when grub loads (very early) and select that kernel fro mthe menu ... if this kernel was installed with apt-get then you have it already in the menu.lst just hit ESC oin bootup
[05:26] <igor> sacater: twhat happened? which message before the panic?
[05:26] <ror> o0 sshd not installed by default :O
[05:26] <sacater> igor: nothing,
[05:26] <bareer01> hello
[05:26] <haykuro> crdlb, i've tried both, legacy and non, my brother uses same video card, and i installed non-legacy drivers and it worked fine for him.
[05:26] <igor> sacater: nothing? incredible.
[05:26] <Spliffster> sacater: just hit ESC in that case when grub loads you get a list of kernels
[05:27] <sacater> Spliffster: i did, and i selected an earlier one, and got 'kernel panic'
[05:27] <sacater> please note i have upgraded to feisty beta
[05:27] <Spliffster> sacater: does his also happend with other kernels ?
[05:27] <Spliffster> *this
[05:27] <sacater> Spliffster: havnt tried yet
[05:27] <Cidwel> last question, the parallel to amd 64 arch for the intel users ...what is it?
[05:28] <c5jr> itanic?
[05:28] <Spliffster> sacater: i would try .. might be that the lib/modules directory is messed up
[05:28] <sacater> ok
[05:28] <sacater> trying
[05:28] <delcoyote> a toast for all the linux community!
[05:28] <crdlb> haykuro, http://albertomilone.com/latest_nvidia_udsf_edgy.html#PROBLEMS_SECTION look at point 7
[05:28] <c5jr> Cidwel, its ia64
[05:28] <tuxcrafter> hello i am resintalling grub with this command grub-install--root-directory=/mnt/root/dev/hda and i got the error /dev/hda does not have any corresponding BIOS drive, what now?
[05:28] <Spliffster> sacater: if this doesn't work .. you can boot off the install cd, chroot to your file system on the disk and reinstall the kernle
[05:29] <haykuro> crdlb, thats what i'm using right now but these black bars stayed. i used on my brothers and it worked.
[05:29] <cypher1> how can i find held packages ?
[05:29] <crdlb> haykuro, did you follow the workaround for your card? (point 7)
[05:29] <Cidwel> omg sorry :o
[05:29] <kritzstapf> hi, i updated today, think there were some xorg-updates, and now beryl doesnt work anymore :/ "Checking maximum texture size : failed", what happened? :(
[05:29] <haykuro> crdlb, yes..
[05:29] <dyfrgi> Something tells me that Ubuntu devs don't actually use update-grub themselves.
[05:29] <balzac> i haven't tried xubuntu yet but i'm looking forward to it
[05:30] <orangefly> can you download the ubuntu server dvd anywhere....???....
[05:30] <delcoyote> crdlb: thanks for the tips given , i got working the gdm.conf package working , the X are back again, thanks a million
[05:30] <balzac> does xubuntu have any limitations that i should know about?
[05:31] <Spliffster> balzac: no. if you are unhappy with xfce you just apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and you are back to gnome
[05:31] <Spliffster> balzac: it's just another package selection
[05:31] <c5jr> tuxcrafter, try grub-install with the --recheck option? from http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/error-devhdx-does-not-have-any-corresponding-bios-drive-and-solution/
[05:31] <balzac> well, i'm looking forward to xfce because gnome isn't too snappy on my dell 2400
[05:31] <ror> what the
[05:32] <ror> I can't find sshd *anywhere&
[05:32] <c5jr> gnome is fine on my dell inspiron 1100
[05:32] <Spliffster> balzac: yeah gnome is getting bloated
[05:32] <Spliffster> :(
[05:32] <haykuro> crdlb, ill be right back, i think i found something that might work
[05:32] <balzac> Spliffster: not as bad as vista
[05:32] <Pici> ror: its openssh-server
[05:32] <balzac> i'm just guessing here
[05:32] <ror> ta Pici
[05:32] <Pici> ror: If you're looking for the package to install
[05:32] <Spliffster> balzac: yeah well ... i won't comment on that one .. ok
[05:32] <Answer> ror, openssh
[05:32] <balzac> people want eye candy, so gnome has to give it to them, but it raises the requirements
[05:33] <HowlingMad> i just `sudo apt-get install ssh`
[05:33] <Spliffster> ror, Pici: or just the meta package ssh which includes server and client
[05:33] <Spliffster> ror: apt-get install ssh
[05:33] <Cidwel> anyone knows if GIGABYTE for assembled graphic cards is a good election? P_P

[05:34] <ror> weird that it's not installed by default? what's up with that?
[05:34] <boggystudios> is there a way to run make and have the output dump into a text file?
[05:34] <Aw0L> ok, is there an easy apt command to tell me whether or not a program is installed?
[05:34] <Spliffster> boggystudios: make ... > make.log
[05:34] <ror> should I have just got the "server" version?
[05:34] <Pici> Spliffster: But ssh-client is in the standard install...
[05:34] <boggystudios> sweet
[05:35] <Pici> ror: The server is not installed because most desktop users don't need it.
[05:35] <Spliffster> Pici: if it is already installed it will not get installed again ... sweetness of apt :D

[05:36] <Spliffster> Aw0L: apt-get
[05:36] <kitche> Aw0L: dpkg -L|grep package
[05:36] <Aw0L> ooooh
[05:36] <Aw0L> Spliffster, how do I use apt get?
[05:36] <mwe> dpkg -l
[05:36] <Aw0L> kitche, thanks, I'll give that a go
[05:36] <mwe> dpkg -L will show contents
[05:36] <Spliffster> Aw0L: apt-get install packagename; apt-cache search package name; etc. man apt-get
[05:36] <ferronica> http://www.bery-project.org/ <-------This one is chinese site. :(
[05:37] <Answer> Aw0L, use aptitude and go to "Installed Packages"  and it will show u the list
[05:37] <ferronica> Spliffster: what is this?
[05:37] <Spliffster> ferronica: www.beryl-project.org
[05:37] <ferronica> Spliffster: http://www.bery-project.org/
[05:37] <Aw0L> Spliffster, apt-cache search just shows whether or not the package is availble for install, not whether or not it's installed
[05:37] <Spliffster> ferronica: typo
[05:37] <victory747> Hi, suddenly this morning ubuntu(feisty) boots with "waiting for root filesystem" and it seems it's because the volume group is not activated.  If I activate it after waiting times out, it goes on and boots.  Any ideas what's up?
[05:37] <Spliffster> sorry
[05:37] <ProN00b> bery-project.org doesn't resolve for me
[05:37] <Pici> victory747: Feisty -> #ubuntu+1
[05:38] <Spliffster> Aw0L: that's right ... it's good for searches ... but doesn't give much status info
[05:38] <victory747> Pici: Ok, Thanks.
[05:38] <Spliffster> Aw0L: once you know the package name you can use dpkg
[05:38] <Aw0L> Spliffster, so can apt give that info
[05:38] <mwe> beryl-project, probably, ProN00b
[05:39] <sacater> Spliffster: ive tried, it complains about xserver on another one
[05:39] <ferronica> Spliffster: when i connect my sony Digital Camera it showing me a error window. :(
[05:39] <Aw0L> dpkg
[05:39] <Aw0L> ocol
[05:40] <Spliffster> yeah dpkg can do that for you
[05:40] <haykuro> crdlb, no luck with the drivers yet..
[05:40] <Spliffster> sacater: lost track ... what did you try ?
[05:40] <dromer> gaahh, I have a big video-clip database from VJing, but it's all encoded in midvid, and now I can't use the clips under linux, does anybody know how I could play them again? :(
[05:41] <haykuro> dromer, did you try VLC?
[05:41] <dromer> yes, didn't work
[05:41] <sacater> Spliffster: i restarted and loaded into an eeven older kernel, for that i got 'Xserver FAIL'
[05:41] <mwe> dromer: did you install w32codecs?
[05:41] <dromer> mwe: afaik
[05:41] <haykuro> dromer, lol kk. just making sure cause VLC generally plays anthing
[05:42] <dromer> mwe: yes is newest version
[05:42] <mwe> dromer: hmm
[05:43] <Spliffster> sacater: oh ok ... so this old kernel is probably missing the video driver module (nvidia or ati i guess) ... this is actually just a rescue system. you would have to install the vid drivers again
[05:45] <Ghost_S> Hi UbUnTu FuNs
[05:46] <dogmeat> put that in your pipe and smoke it!
[05:46] <Syntra> K, this is a dumb question, but How do I access my CD Drive in Ubuntu?
[05:47] <int21h> anyone having issues with deskbar-applet under beryl ?
[05:47] <dromer> Syntra: there are no dumb questions ;)
[05:47] <bigjohnto> hey anyone know if a multitab terminal window has been created for windows?
[05:47] <Aw0L> Syntra, check your /etc/fstab and see the mount pount for it - it's probably /media/cdrom0 or something similar
[05:47] <int21h> somehow I can no longer type text in it
[05:47] <Syntra> Yeah, I looked in there, and it had nothing.
[05:47] <ror_> mmm I wish there was a gtk version of amarok
[05:48] <Aw0L> Syntra, what does "ls /media" say?
[05:48] <Syntra> I know the CD is in the drive, and I know my drive works, maybe I should test the CD again?
[05:48] <int21h> seems deskbar applet is tied into metacity ?
[05:48] <ror_> seems a waste to install kde-libs just to get it but it's by far the nicest media player around
[05:48] <Syntra> hold on
[05:48] <magic_ninja> !libkrb53
[05:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libkrb53 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:48] <Pici> int21h: I had a window focus problem while using my panel applets and beryl.  Theres a setting in the main options somewhere to modify how nicely beryl does focus.  I'm not sure what the option is called, I'm not on that computer at the moment.
[05:49] <int21h> Pici, thanks I will investigate
[05:49] <Aw0L> Syntra, is it an internal IDE drive?
[05:49] <alc> just came across the cool screenlets ( http://forum.go-compiz.org/viewtopic.php?t=358 ),  did anybody know of any feisty pkg/repo for it?
[05:49] <Spliffster> Pici, int21h : its probably called "focus stealing" what you want to check
[05:49] <int21h> Spliffster, thanks checking
[05:50] <Syntra> Its a
[05:50] <Syntra> Laptop Drive
[05:50] <samman> I'm having some issues configuring my wireless card. Anyone who knows wireless care to help?
[05:50] <Syntra> Internal
[05:50] <alc> found a repo for edgy: http://syzygy42.tuxfamily.org/dists/edgy/screenlets/ , but not for feasty
[05:50] <Aw0L> Syntra, then your device is probably /dev/hdc or /dev/hdd - try "eject /dev/hdc" and see if it kicks your drive out
[05:50] <alc> feisty
[05:50] <Syntra> Alright, lemme give that a try.
[05:50] <ror_> this is weird, if I sudo something, it prompts for password, when I sudo it next time it doesn't prompt again the second time
[05:51] <Pici> ror_: Theres a timeout on how long the sudo password is kept.
[05:52] <ror_> o0 ok
[05:52] <Pici> ror_: I dont know how long it is off the top of my head, but its no longer that 15 min.
[05:52] <ror_> ok, thanks
[05:52] <simonp> hi, anyone know how to get a faster mirror? I only  have ~20 kB/s apt-get now
[05:52] <simonp> thx
[05:53] <int21h> Spliffster, Pici , found it under "General Options" -> "Level of focus stealing prevention" set it to "None"
[05:54] <dyrne> simonp: might remove the country prefix in sources.list us. or whatever
[05:54] <Spliffster> int21h: col
[05:54] <Spliffster> *cool even
[05:54] <AVN`> If I get a creative zen vision W 60gb player, will i be able to use it on linux?
[05:55] <simonp> dyrne: mine is hk.archive.ubuntu.com, should i change to archive.ubuntu.com?
[05:55] <Spliffster> AVN`: if it can be mounted as block-device (with a known FS) yes
[05:55] <dyrne> simonp: yeah i usually do.
[05:55] <Spliffster> AVN`: then it's noting more than an usb stick for your os
[05:56] <simonp> dyrne: thx, let me try it
[05:56] <AVN`> Spliffster, I don't think it supports UMS
[05:56] <Spliffster> AVN`: i'd ask the manuactorer before buying then
[05:59] <orangefly> can you do everything with the desktop you can do with the server....???....
[05:59] <Syntra> K, I tried eject /dev/hdc/, and that ejected my CD
[05:59] <test> lol root
[06:00] <Syntra> But I wanna get the files that are on there.
[06:00] <_root> what is "brb lemme" ??
[06:00] <o2rm1w> sudo -i
[06:00] <Syntra> I tried going to the /dev/hdc path, but its like What Program should I use?
[06:00] <o2rm1w> cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:01] <Epic720> I cannot see my raided NTFS drives, how do I mount them?
[06:01] <_root> what is "brb lemme" ??
[06:01] <arch_> How do you change the icon set in Gnome? (I've downloaded a collection already)
[06:01] <orangefly> can you do everything with the desktop you can do with the server....???....
[06:01] <predaeus> orangefly, the Ubuntu Desktop has the desktop and graphical user interfaces based on the X server, Ubuntu server installation is missing those graphical displays.
[06:01] <jburd> _root, laziness.
[06:01] <AzMoo> orangefly, yes. The server version is just a different set of packages.
[06:01] <Aw0L> Syntra, /dev/hdc is just your device
[06:01] <Aw0L> you need to have a mount point
[06:01] <jburd> _root, it means "Be right back.  Let me..."
[06:02] <Aw0L> Syntra, what is in your /media directory?
[06:02] <Epic720> can anyone help me find my NTFS drives?
[06:02] <_root> jdurd thank you a lot
[06:02] <Syntra> I think 2 CD1 folders, and 2 Floppy1 folders
[06:02] <Aw0L> if there is no mount point for your cdrom, create one - "mkdir /media/cdrom"
[06:02] <tarzeau> Epic720: fdisk -l
[06:02] <Aw0L> then mount the drive
[06:02] <Syntra> lemme make sure
[06:02] <Aw0L> "mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom"
[06:02] <Aw0L> as an example
[06:02] <orangefly> that's cool....i have serious over kill on the hardware end....figured i might as well use the GUI if i can....
[06:02] <Aw0L> ubuntu should've made an entry in your /etc/fstab though
[06:02] <o2rm1w> hey
[06:03] <o2rm1w> i thought here is the terminal
[06:03] <o2rm1w> but the commands i write doesn't work
[06:03] <o2rm1w> ls
[06:03] <Syntra> So I should enter Mount /dev/hdc in the teminal?
[06:03] <Syntra> *terminal?
[06:03] <o2rm1w> here is the terminal!
[06:03] <sacater> hey, can anyone here progam perl well?
[06:03] <Syntra> I'm gonna try that anyways, brb.
[06:04] <o2rm1w> pearl jam
[06:04] <bigjohnto> Please, anyone know if you can have a terminal window in Microsoft Windows that can handle multiple terminals by tabs? instead of multiple seperate windows kind of like how ubuntu does it?
[06:04] <Aw0L> Syntra, yes, in the terminal
[06:04] <Syntra> K, I tried, and its like "hey its read only"
[06:04] <samman> I have a linksys wpc54g v4 wireless notebook card. I've got the driver installed and it recognizes the hardware, but I can't get it to connect to my network.
[06:04] <Aw0L> you can do it through the gui also, but the terminal is just more fun :)
[06:04] <Syntra> So I'm like k, tries again, I get the same thing.
[06:04] <Epic720> tarzeau: after typing in fdisk -l nothing happens
[06:04] <eltese> hi. Anyone knows why wine is down?
[06:05] <Syntra> Should I try mount /media/cdrom/?
[06:05] <Aw0L> Syntra, try "unmount /media/cdrom; sudo mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom"
[06:05] <predaeus> orangefly, Xubuntu provides a Desktop experience that is more lightweight than the default Ubuntu one. So if the GUI stuff is running slow on your hardware you could aswell try Xubuntu.
[06:05] <LjL> eltese: to keep it cool
[06:05] <Syntra> k
[06:05] <Syntra> brb
[06:05] <o2rm1w> wine is good. but i prefer beer
[06:05] <Aw0L> If it's read only, it's probably just because you didn't do it as root - that can be fixed with options in your /etc/fstab
[06:05] <LjL> eltese: if you mean the winehq site, it's not down
[06:06] <eltese> LjL: ok? I cant reach it ;p
[06:06] <tarzeau> Epic720: do you know which harddisk? try fdisk -l /dev/disk
[06:06] <tarzeau> Epic720: like sda, or hda
[06:06] <predaeus> Epic720, run it like "sudo fdisk -l"
[06:06] <LjL> eltese: your ISP's problem... i reach it fine
[06:06] <Epic720> hda I think
[06:06] <LjL> eltese: the site is www.winehq.com
[06:07] <eltese> lol, firefox couldnt reach it. But opera could ;p
[06:07] <Epic720> no, it is sda.
[06:07] <theacolyte> eltese: check your proxy settings in firefox
[06:08] <Epic720> my raided drives show up as two different drives, sda and sdb
[06:08] <Epic720> but I don't know how to access them
[06:08] <orangefly> predaeus thanks....but i really doubt if this will slow down....2 drives raid 1 for os, 3 drives raid 5 for data, 4gb ram, and two 3ghz dual cores....
[06:09] <Syntra> K um, how do I get into my /etc/fstab?
[06:09] <LjL> Syntra: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[06:09] <Epic720> how do I access my raided NTFS drives? They show up in fdisk as sda and sdb
[06:10] <kritzstapf> do you know a good programm for recording multiple tracks?
[06:10] <kritzstapf> audacity is not working as it should..
[06:10] <Spliffster> Epic720: if this is a sotware raid ... it might not be possible to acces it in linux. i have never tried it tho
[06:10] <predaeus> orangefly, ok ;-), I was not sure what you meant. Then wait for the Feisty release (1-2 weeks) and enjoy the Compiz experience out-of-the-box or easily install Beryl then.
[06:11] <Syntra> LjL, that didnt work.
[06:11] <Epic720> I am using a Promise Fasttrax tx 2300, I am pretty sure it is hardware raided....
[06:11] <Aw0L> Syntra, "sudo nano -w /etc/fstab"
[06:11] <Aw0L> hold on I'll give you an example of mine
[06:11] <Epic720> I set them up under my Win2k server
[06:11] <LjL> Syntra: define "didn't work"
[06:11] <kritzstapf> predaeus, theyll include compiz instead of beryl?
[06:12] <A55A551N> What's up Kids?
[06:12] <Syntra> "Command Not Found"
[06:12] <Aw0L> what command?
[06:12] <LjL> Syntra: are you on GNOME?
[06:12] <Pici> Syntra: commands are case sensitive.
[06:12] <A55A551N> I'm trying to run Wellenreiter and it keeps coming back with Gtk@INC not found....
[06:12] <Syntra> Aw0l: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[06:12] <predaeus> kritzstapf, as far as I know Compiz is installed by default has to be enabled though, Beryl can be added with apt-get easily. That's what I've seen in the Feisty Herd5 Beta release or what it was.
[06:13] <Syntra> LJL: Not sure, just installed 6.10
[06:13] <Aw0L> Syntra, that's not for the terminal is it?
[06:13] <Aw0L> sounds gui
[06:13] <LjL> predaeus: it's only installed by default on Feisty, yes, not in Edgy though
[06:13] <Aw0L> unless it was kubuntu, or xubuntu
[06:13] <Syntra> Yeah, its Xubuntu
[06:13] <Epic720> how do I access my raided NTFS drives? They show up in fdisk as sda and sdb
[06:13] <LjL> Syntra: well, then that surely makes a difference.
[06:13] <Aw0L> well that makes a difference
[06:13] <predaeus> LjL, yup that's what I meant.
[06:13] <Syntra> XD. I thought it wouldnt
[06:13] <Syntra> I thought it was just a downgraded Ubuntu
[06:14] <samman> I have a linksys wpc54g v4 wireless notebook card. I've got the driver installed and it recognizes the hardware, but I can't get it to connect to my network.
[06:14] <LjL> Syntra: i don't know what the standard editor in Xubuntu is called, but "sudo nano /etc/fstab" will work, though it isn't a GUI program
[06:14] <Aw0L> no
[06:14] <Aw0L> Xubuntu is just another desktop
[06:14] <Syntra> k, I'll try that now
[06:14] <Aw0L> the only difference it makes is what GUI-based tools you can use
[06:14] <kitche> LjL: think it's mousepad
[06:14] <Aw0L> yeah, do what LjL said
[06:14] <LjL> Syntra: no. it uses Xfce instead of GNOME - two completely different desktop environments. the one thing they have in common is that they use the GTK libraries as a backend
[06:14] <Aw0L> you should have a line in your /etc/fstab that looks like this: /dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[06:14] <Aw0L> wait, I should pastebin that
[06:15] <Syntra> K, I got into the Fstab, and I have no clue what I'm doing.
[06:15] <Syntra> Should I edit that?
[06:16] <Aw0L> Syntra, look for a line that says /dev/hdc        /media/cdromx
[06:16] <Aw0L> etc
[06:16] <Syntra> Yeah, I have that line
[06:16] <Syntra> I have no clue what to do with it. XD
[06:16] <boggystudios> how do I get the kernel headers for 2.6.15 ?
[06:16] <Aw0L> on that line, does it say something like "user,noauto..."?
[06:16] <skilover> I am trying to install ubunto from a CD burned from ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso. The HD has one partition for WinXP. When the installer gets to the repartitioning step it hangs.
[06:17] <skilover> Can anyone help?
[06:17] <A55A551N> does anybody know the command for finding a particular channel as opose as to /list '
[06:17] <Syntra> Yeah, it says like Iso 9660 user,noauto
[06:17] <A55A551N> which brings all of them up?
[06:17] <Aw0L> Syntra, if I remember correctly, you should just need to change "user" to "users"
[06:17] <Spliffster> A55A551N: if you are using irssi i can recommend the grep.pl plugin, inthat cas its /grep regexp list
[06:18] <Aw0L> hit Ctrl + x to exit
[06:18] <Syntra> Thats it? Sweeet. :D
[06:18] <Aw0L> Syntra, I think - could be wrong though ;)
[06:18] <Aw0L> it won't break anything if I am
[06:18] <Aw0L> hehe
[06:18] <A55A551N> Spliffser: Thanks! I'm using X-Chat...
[06:18] <HowlingMad> how do i change default media player to mplayer from totem in edgy
[06:18] <HowlingMad> ?
[06:18] <Spliffster> A55A551N: chck the menues there is a window where you can filter the /list output
[06:18] <orangefly> predaeus should i wait or just upgrade later...
[06:18] <HowlingMad> its not in perferd applications
[06:19] <Arta-> Having a problem with my dual monitor setup if someone has a second?
[06:19] <Syntra> Okay, all thats done, now what? Do I try mount /dev/hdc/?
[06:19] <A55A551N> Spliffster: Menus as in /help
[06:19] <skilover> Need help installing. Disk partitioner hangs. Can anyone help?
[06:19] <Spliffster> A55A551N: no the menu bar of xchat
[06:19] <kritzstapf> hi, trying to import photos from my camera i get "Error USBClaim: LibGPhoto2.GPhotoException: Could not claim the USB device", whats wrong here?
[06:20] <A55A551N> Spliffster: Oh...got it. Thanks Friend!
[06:20] <BR> HowlingMad, go to System/Preferences/Removable Drives and Media
[06:20] <iratiku> I'm running ubuntu-server Dapper Drake - - Even after running ntpdate , time is synced but 1 hour off (DST not set? it says 11:18, its 12:18) ? Good Link?
[06:21] <predaeus> orangefly, depends on what you prefer. In the past upgrades from one release to the other did bring problems. But it is very likely better now, with all the great improvements they did. You could also risk installing the feisty beta release now, that will be less changes when upgrading to the final release.
[06:21] <samman> I have a linksys wpc54g v4 wireless notebook card. I've got the driver installed and it recognizes the hardware, but I can't get it to connect to my network. Any wireless network gurus out there?
[06:21] <Aw0L> Syntra, what's your mount point - /media/cdrom.....?
[06:22] <Aw0L> or 0
[06:22] <BR> samman, have you tried network manager?
[06:22] <b00gz> anyone know how to make it so I can boot my computer up with UDMA66 instead of UDMA100?
[06:22] <Aw0L> is it /media/cdrom1 or 2? or 3? or 0?
[06:22] <HowlingMad> ahh i see does that change when i click on like avi files or mpeg files
[06:22] <Syntra> I think its 0, lemme check
[06:22] <int21h> anyone now how to force Beagle to index emails in evolution ?
[06:22] <Spliffster> iratiku: ntp has nothing to do with DST (it's always UTC) you might have set a wrong timezone during setup
[06:22] <predaeus> orangefly, so safest would be to wait. I would say upgrading will be easier if you install beta now. But edgy is probably still more stable than the current Feisty beta.
[06:22] <iratiku> now i'm lost
[06:22] <BR> HowlingMad, it should
[06:22] <Syntra> Yeah, theres CDROM then theres CDROM0
[06:23] <orangefly> predaeus, that's cool....i just got this new toy for work....i figured i play with it for a few weeks anyway....my first $6,000 pc....unfortunatly it's a dell, but beggers you know....
[06:23] <rambo3> b00gz, i am guessing its got something to do with hdparam
[06:23] <iratiku> how do i check my timezone (well.. actually  - when I ran ntpdate before dst went into effect .. the time seemed correct)
[06:23] <Scunizi> Hi All... Trying a mail merge w/12 fields of data on about 14 records and for some reason the data is not merging at all.  When hovering over each data field name OO correctly shows the database and appropriate field name it's linked to ... but nothing merges... Can anyone help?
[06:23] <anonymeeee> anyone know how to set up Konsole to see com 1?  I need to connect to a console cable connected to a cisco router using 9600 baud 8-N-1
[06:23] <Aw0L> Syntra, try just typing "mount /media/cdrom0"
[06:23] <Aw0L> You created /media/cdrom right?
[06:24] <Aw0L> I think yes
[06:24] <predaeus> orangefly, you can try the feisty betas like any other ubuntu live cd. And decide to install later.
[06:24] <HowlingMad> when i click on a avi it still opens in totem
[06:24] <boggystudios> how do Iget the kernel headers for 2.6.15?
[06:24] <boggystudios> how do I get the kernel headers for 2.6.15?
[06:24] <Syntra> Aw0L: I got the same thing. Its Write Protected.
[06:24] <dogmeat> im having lots of problems with totem player, should i deinstall this and go with something better?
[06:25] <samman> br: how does network manager differ from network settings
[06:25] <rambo3> b00gz, add de1=ata66 on boot
[06:25] <rambo3> b00gz, add ide1=ata66 on boot
[06:25] <Aw0L> clenver
[06:25] <Aw0L> clever

[06:27] <predaeus> boggystudios, there is a package in the Dapper repositories.
[06:28] <mjr> dromer, "file" will recognize at least some codecs, mplayer's output may also be useful
[06:28] <Aw0L> Syntra, I just mean it's not a hard problem to fix - I'mhaving a memory lapse
[06:28] <jamol> help
[06:28] <Syntra> Ahh.

[06:28] <Syntra> Maybe I should try the Xubuntu IRC?
[06:28] <b00gz> rambo3: what fille do I add ide1=ata66?
[06:28] <dromer> mjr: mplayer can't play these avi's I got :(
[06:29] <Aw0L> Syntra, if you'd like, but that problem isn't xubuntu specific
[06:29] <Syntra> Ahh
[06:29] <Syntra> I know the CD is by Samsung, if that helps any....
[06:29] <Syntra> err
[06:29] <Syntra> The CD Drive is by Samsung
[06:29] <iratiku> oh boy .... this room seems so congested with such a wide range of issues - - is there a more specific place I can go to for issues with time in ubuntu ?
[06:29] <JuJuBee> I have a server in my room. I have an account on the server that has a different uid than my account on my laptop.  How can I mount /home from the server so I can access my documents on my laptop?
[06:29] <predaeus> boggystudios, open http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/devel/ in your browser and search for 2.6.15. there are several packages.
[06:29] <Nocker-> Does anybody know how to disable that icons on the desktop are automatically added when drives are mounted?
[06:29] <MTecknology> what is Routing Table Management ?? - it has Type, Target, Mask, and Gateway that I need to fill out I don't know what it does
[06:30] <SeanTater> What's the best program for trimming exceptionally long log entries to save log space?
[06:30] <int21h> seems not much work being done on Beagle anymore :(
[06:30] <int21h> sadly
[06:30] <theacolyte> SeanTater: logroate
[06:30] <theacolyte> logrotate rather
[06:30] <c5jr> i second logrotate
[06:30] <boggystudios> predaeus: I got it by typing sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[06:30] <Aw0L> Syntra, are you using IRC on that laptop with Xubuntu?
[06:31] <Syntra> No, I'm on my PC with Chatzilla.
[06:31] <SeanTater> theacolyte: Even for only removing a single entry as opposed to the whole file?
[06:31] <BR> HowlingMad, try right-clicking on the file, go to Properties/Open With
[06:31] <Syntra> The Laptop is like 5 feet away from me, charging.
[06:31] <Aw0L> Try rebooting the laptop
[06:31] <theacolyte> SeanTater: a SINGLE line from a log file?
[06:31] <predaeus> boggystudios, ok fine, so you are still on Dapper. The thing is those are not available on Edgy anymore. That's why I looked for them on the web.
[06:31] <Aw0L> might just take you logging in and out, but reboot for the heck of it, if ou can
[06:31] <SeanTater> theacolyte: yes, I have some spammers who send 8191-byte long querys to fill my logs
[06:32] <HowlingMad> ahh thats it thanks
[06:32] <Syntra> Alright, I'll give that a try.
[06:32] <HowlingMad> simple when ya find it ;)
[06:32] <HowlingMad> thanks
[06:32] <theacolyte> SeanTater: wow, that's completely different than what I thought, I honestly have no idea on that one, I've never wanted to
[06:32] <BR> no problem
[06:32] <Znortfl> Hello ubuntu people. When I try to do something grafical on my edgy, i.e. glxgears or WoW, my X server crashes and I am logged out. What am I doing wrong?
[06:33] <HymnToLife> Znortfl, which video drivers ?
[06:33] <Znortfl> nvidia
[06:33] <HymnToLife> most likely a problem with them, then
[06:33] <HymnToLife> try reinstaling the drivers
[06:33] <SeanTater> theacolyte: It's not a big deal as it takes a heck of a lot of querys to fill 10GB, which they have FAR from accomplished, I just can't read the log for all the garbage..
[06:33] <c5jr> SeanTater, I'd write a little script
[06:34] <Znortfl> HymnToLife, will do. brb.
[06:34] <Aw0L> Syntra, do you need to write anything to this cd?
[06:34] <c5jr> clean it up, there should be an identifiable pattern to the line..
[06:34] <HymnToLife> Znortfl, sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) nvidia-glx
[06:34] <HymnToLife> should do the trick
[06:34] <c5jr> use a regex to find and remove these log entries
[06:34] <jamol> To Nocker, Alt-F2 and type "gconf-editor", on the left panel navigate to apps->nautilus->desktop, and uncheck 'volumes_visible'
[06:34] <A55A551N> Hi all...I'm new to Linux and I am trying to transition using Ubuntu as a suggestion from a Linux savvy co-worker...I am on the part of downloading source or binary packages, the extract, compiling, and installation of these. It is a bit duanting and complex for me....I was wondering if I could get some help with these...? I know Synaptic is a utility that can faicilitate this for the most part...
[06:34] <A55A551N> 	but, I am trying to understand and familiarize myself with this process from at the very rawest level possible, which, I believe is through the shell. I want to understand the process through the shell. Now...don't all rush to answer.....LOL!
[06:34] <Syntra> Aw0L: No, I just wanna get some files from it.
[06:34] <Aw0L> oh
[06:34] <louish> Hi all.   I'm having a samba problem.  I've installed samba and enabled samba users.   I can browse to the ubuntu pc, but cannot log into it.  I've run testparm and its saying... WARNING: passdb expand explicit = yes is deprecated
[06:34] <louish> Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE
[06:34] <louish>   I'm not sure what to do at this point.
[06:34] <Aw0L> Syntra, then it should be working already
[06:35] <Aw0L> Syntra, I may have given you a wrong option according to this: http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/doc/debian/ch-disks.html
[06:35] <Aw0L> it says to just use "user"
[06:35] <SeanTater> c5jr: okay -- shouldn't be too hard, I just thought there might already be one
[06:35] <HymnToLife> A55A551N, what exactly do you want to do through the cli ?
[06:35] <samman> br, i had to use ndiswrapper to install the driver. is that thread only referring to natively supported cards? when i try to install network manager as described there it gives me "couldn't fine package network-manager-gnome"
[06:35] <Aw0L> so you might want to replace "users" back with "user"
[06:35] <c5jr> SeanTater, there may be...
[06:35] <c5jr> if you find one, let me know!
[06:35] <Aw0L> but if you can mount it as your regular user account (not as root) then there shouldn't be a problem
[06:35] <iratiku> The time is 12:32 Central Standard Time --   when I type date (and in mysql and all time dependent services) it says 11:32 CDT --- .. I've run ntpdate and its synced -- what do I do ?
[06:35] <ArkLaVey> hi!! ubunters
[06:35] <A55A551N> HymnToLife: Thanks! Well, I don't quite get the process of installing a module or program in Linux.
[06:35] <Aw0L> when it boots back up, go to the command line and type "mount /media/cdrom1; ls /media/cdrom1"
[06:35] <Aw0L> it should display the contents
[06:36] <Aw0L> for getting to it through the gui, you should ask that in the Xubuntu chat, as I haven't used XFCE in a long time
[06:36] <HymnToLife> A55A551N, the preferred way to install software in Ubuntu (and Debian-based distros in general) is !apt
[06:36] <BR> samman, make sure you have all repositories in your sources list
[06:36] <doodle> Somebody please help me; i was following a beryl installation guide; and after installing my nvidia drivers, and executing beryl, the screen went white, and X rebooted! Now i can't load ubuntu with a graphic GUI. I just get thrown into the X system terminal. How can i undo this, and make it all go away???
[06:36] <A55A551N> HymnToLife: I'm trying to run a program called Wellenreiter off my ubuntu insance, but everytime I attempt to execute the script it comes back with a statement that a dependency isn't being located....
[06:37] <louish> anyone?
[06:37] <HymnToLife> A55A551N, could you !pastebin the exact error ?
[06:37] <doodle> I found it it is because the drivers i installed, no longer support Geforce 4 mx440
[06:37] <A55A551N> HymnToLife: Sure Hymn...let me recreate it and come back. Will you be here?
[06:37] <HymnToLife> sure

[07:00] <hidan> okay man i'm back... the feisty install went okay although ubuntu had some crashes. anyone can suggest a good browser, though? 'cos FF keeps crashing non-stop.
[07:01] <jusama14> how do i actually open Xorg.0.log
[07:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> hidan:
[07:01] <jusama14> i typed dir
[07:01] <ben> sipior: all menus are activated
[07:01] <jusama14> and found that
[07:01] <sipior> ben: then you're out of luck, sorry :)
[07:01] <hidan> nerdygirl_ellie hmm? what were you trying to say?
[07:01] <ben> sipior: but how do i activate my three speakers?
[07:02] <ben> sipior: only front two speakers and front two are working!
[07:02] <ben> sipior: only front two speakers and woofer are working
[07:02] <sipior> ben: my guess is that you need to select the appropriate media system from the menu. if you can not find the application for that, you can try googling for your card and see if someone has come up with a solution
[07:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> Let's try that again.  Hi all.  I am on 7.04 Beta, and have been working great until I pulled down today's updates.  Now I can't start the gnome desktop or the gnome_failsafe desktop.  I am at the gui login screen and It looks like it is trying to start gnome, but then I get kicked back to the (gui) login prompt.
[07:03] <jusama14> sipior, how do i open the log??
[07:03] <nerdygirl_ellie> I can start an xfce session, but not gnome.
[07:03] <sipior> jusama14: less X.org.0 or whatever
[07:03] <sipior> brb

[07:08] <Parr> So I ask for help in this room?
[07:08] <Spliffster> !ask
[07:08] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[07:09] <Parr> Well I decided to take a stab at this Linux buisness today, downloaded, installed - seems easy enough.  Then came using it - I can't get my wireless to work.. :S

[07:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> tgelter:  smbclient is what I use
[07:11] <Spliffster> jawollja!
[07:11] <Spliffster> :D
[07:11] <sipior> jusama14: the card looks old, and may not support 3d access, though in that case i'm surprised the x server didn't complain
[07:11] <sipior> jusama14: is it a recent card?
[07:11] <predaeus> Akkapuko, just hit CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE to restart X
[07:11] <tgelter> nerdygirl_ellie: would that work on a solaris box as well?
[07:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> tgelter:  or, you can mount it if you want to treat it like a regular unix filesystem.  For scripts, smbclient is probably best.
[07:11] <sipior> ben: they should have a web page for the card itself, and it should mention whether 5.1 support is there
[07:12] <drew> how do i remove repositorys through terminal
[07:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> tgelter:  I think so.
[07:12] <Parr> Is there not a wireless search option or something - I know the name of my wireless but I get no indication if it can even find it.  Help :(!!!
[07:12] <ben> sipior: thanks sipior.Let me check that
[07:12] <predaeus> drew, edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:12] <sipior> ben: good luck
[07:12] <tgelter> nerdygirl_ellie: thanks for the tip
[07:13] <predaeus> drew, run apt-get update after changing sources.list
[07:13] <rpto> anyone have time to solve video drag problems?.
[07:13] <Costel> my PC freezes
[07:13] <drew> preaction, its telling me i have lots of duplicates, but all i did was enable all of them, any idea how to set it back to defaults?
[07:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  network-manager-gnome is a friendly gui that lets you pick wireless networks.
[07:13] <Parr> The help that comes with it basicly tells me to put its name in and itl work - how do I do it?
[07:13] <Tominator> Hi! I've got some problems installing the linux-wlan-ng... modprobe prism2_pci puts out errors (in the dmesg): http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13869/
[07:13] <Costel> :(
[07:13] <HymnToLife> Parr, sudo iwlist ethSomething scan
[07:14] <preaction> drew, predaeus: i hate you both.
[07:14] <jusama14> hey sorry
[07:14] <jusama14> did you read the paste bin?
[07:14] <dol> I need help ... someone here?
[07:14] <predaeus> preaction, ;-)
[07:14] <Parr> are these programs on ubuntu at the moment? because the computer doesnt have internet access
[07:14] <drew> eh?
[07:14] <HymnToLife> yes
[07:14] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr: first lets see if your wireless card is detected, ok?
[07:14] <mohsin> hello all
[07:14] <jusama14> sipior, hello?
[07:14] <sipior> jusama14: i did, it shows an S3 unichrome pro vga adapter, right?
[07:14] <Spliffster> !ctrl-alt-backspace is do not use CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE for ending an X session if you have other options. CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE will kill your xsession and all child threads (firefox, session managers, etc.) and might cause serious problems to programms which need to cleanup (ie. release lock files, clean files in tem, close connections propperly, etc.) use $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (or kdm/xdm) instead!
[07:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  run Applications->Accessories->Terminal
[07:15] <HowlingMad> what debian is ubuntu based on ?
[07:15] <dol> i connected my external hardisk and the ubuntu dosn't  detected
[07:15] <jusama14> i don't know any of what it says lol
[07:15] <sipior> jusama14: you haven't answered my question regarding the age of the card. is it new?
[07:15] <mohsin> this is a chat room
[07:15] <Parr> okies - I think it is because System > Administration > Networking it gives me the option for wireless, wired, and modem
[07:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  Then type 'iwlist scanning'  (without the quotes).  This should scan for available wireless networks.
[07:15] <PriceChild> HowlingMad, testing
[07:15] <mohsin> that uare chating
[07:15] <MarkCh> hi room. how do i record music that im currently playing.
[07:15] <jusama14> well
[07:15] <sipior> mohsin: this a test?
[07:15] <jusama14> sorry i said that i had to restart
[07:15] <HowlingMad> so currently etch
[07:15] <predaeus> drew, try http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/
[07:15] <jusama14> it's onboard
[07:15] <MarkCh> i want to extract a music from a video i am playing.
[07:16] <HymnToLife> Spliffster, telling ppl to use /etc/init.d/?dm instead saves the (or kdm/xdm) part ;)
[07:16] <dol> someone can give me help in privat ?
[07:16] <jusama14> i didn't put in a new video card
[07:16] <sipior> jusama14: but the computer itself is new?
[07:16] <benkillin> MarkCh, set the record source to "Stereo Mix"
[07:16] <jusama14> yeah pretty new...made it in class
[07:16] <PriceChild> Spliffster, for some that request didn't come to #ubuntu-ops, I'm not sure whether I want to add it so best you suggest it in there
[07:16] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  Do any of the interfaces NOT say "Interface doesn't support Scanning?"
[07:16] <Parr> Ok, it tells me that the Interface doesnt support scanning
[07:16] <sipior> jusama14: made it? oh well, then :) does the S3 card sound right, then?
[07:17] <Parr> apart from eth1 - which says no scan result
[07:17] <jusama14> what's an S3 card?
[07:17] <jusama14> lol
[07:17] <MarkCh> benkillin: btw. what recorder should i use, the default one in gnome doesnt have a record source option.
[07:17] <Arta-> Really stuck with an X problem, can anyone help?
[07:17] <drew> predaeus, thx
[07:17] <dol> someone can give me help in privat ?
[07:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  All of them?
[07:17] <DeiNickHier> hello.
[07:17] <sipior> jusama14: where'd you get the motherboard for the computer
[07:17] <benkillin> MarkCh, audacity is good
[07:17] <Parr> apart from eth1
[07:17] <HymnToLife> !ask | Arta-
[07:17] <ubotu> Arta-: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:17] <Spliffster> HymnToLife: not if they have installed kdm and gdm which is possible
[07:17] <Arta-> Ok
[07:17] <Epic720> how can I found out eth0's IP?
[07:17] <Arta-> I have dual monitors
[07:17] <jusama14> my teacher bought it from some warehouse
[07:17] <MarkCh> ok. thx benkillin, ill try that
[07:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr: Ok.  That's good.  Eth1 is your  wireless card.
[07:17] <Arta-> They are working, after many hours of fiddling, but the wrong monitor is the primary
[07:17] <sipior> Epic720: ifconfig eth0
[07:18] <Shaezsche> ok wtf, after latest patches, now on boot my laptop hangs for 30s when it says "configuring network"
[07:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> Epic720 ifconfig eth0
[07:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  Now to get you connected.
[07:18] <Spliffster> PriceChild: are only ops allowd to add factoids ?
[07:18] <Parr> phew, thought i had failed already lol
[07:18] <mohsin> any thing about horror or adventure movies
[07:18] <Arta-> IE, the ubuntu splash/login comes up on the wrong monitor, dialogs, apps, the panels
[07:18] <Arta-> etx
[07:18] <spider> i want to install ubuntu 6.10 but after Bootloader, my Monitor goes "out of range" i can't do anything.
[07:18] <Arta-> ALl on the wrong monitor
[07:18] <PriceChild> Spliffster, only certain ops
[07:18] <sipior> jusama14: my guess is that the card is either not detected properly, or that it is an old card (maybe both)
[07:18] <predaeus> drew, :-)
[07:18] <Shaezsche> im talking about feisty
[07:18] <Arta-> I've tried swapping screens in xorg.conf
[07:18] <Shaezsche> is there a room for feisty
[07:18] <Whitor> Hi, In my xorg.conf file I have two Section "Device" areas... one right after the other. Is this bad? Should I delete one ?
[07:18] <jusama14> maybe i need to get the drivers for it?
[07:18] <Arta-> I've tried changing things around in ServerLayout
[07:18] <Spliffster> PriceChild: this would explain why ubotu is so stupid :p
[07:18] <HymnToLife> Shaezsche, #ubuntu+1
[07:18] <Arta-> I've even just swapped the monitors around on the card
[07:18] <jusama14> cause we never updated drivers
[07:19] <PriceChild> Spliffster, it should have relayed your request to the ops channel but didn't :(
[07:19] <computer432> dangit whats the command to copy a folder, and all files with then that folder?
[07:19] <Arta-> Whatever I do, it seems to insist on making the wrong one primary
[07:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  Lets see if we get lucky.  Can you try 'sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome'
[07:19] <sipior> jusama14: if the card is supported in X, the driver is already there. what processor in the motherboard?
[07:19] <Arta-> <--- stuck
[07:19] <jusama14> amd sempron
[07:19] <HymnToLife> computer432, -R switch to cp
[07:19] <Spliffster> PriceChild: so would you be kidn and add the above factoid ? it's a ommon misunderstanding by ubuntu users that ctrl-alt-backspace is for restarting the x session
[07:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  Hopefully it will ask for the cd and install it from the cd
[07:19] <HymnToLife> use with care
[07:19] <spider> i want to install ubuntu 6.10 but after Bootloader, my Monitor goes "out of range" i can't do anything.
[07:19] <PriceChild> Spliffster, lI don't want to add it myself sorry.
[07:19] <HymnToLife> !repeat | spider

[07:20] <shouen> Can anybody help me with a gdm/gnome problem - my Ctrl+Alt+F1-F9 buttons doesnt work under X... I have checked my keyboard layout and googled. but to no avail...
[07:20] <mohsin> i love u at first sight
[07:20] <Parr> Its telling me it could not find package
[07:21] <Parr> "E: Couldn't find package network-manager-gnome"
[07:21] <Spliffster> PriceChild: ok ... postedt it in the ops channel. thank you for advice
[07:21] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  That's unfortunate.  Any way you can plug in for long enough to pull that down?
[07:21] <ouam> hy
[07:21] <Arta-> HymnToLife: Any thoughts?
[07:21] <shezif> someone can give me help in privat ?
[07:21] <sipior> jusama14: hmm...the file you pasted was /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[07:21] <shezif> please
[07:21] <Parr> Plug in? as in through a wired connection yes?
[07:21] <jusama14> yeah
[07:21] <sipior> jusama14: and you were running X on it already, right?
[07:21] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  Yes.
[07:22] <jusama14> Unreal Tournament works
[07:22] <HymnToLife> Arta-, nope, I rarely use multi-monitors, sorry
[07:22] <Whitor> Hi, In my xorg.conf file I have two sections that both read: Section "Device"      one right after the other. Is this bad? should I delete one ?
[07:22] <jusama14> what do you mean running X already?
[07:22] <Arta-> ok, ty anyway
[07:22] <Parr> I don't have any other wires, but I have got a flash drive if I could copy it over that way?
[07:22] <jusama14> i haven't done anything except for what you told me
[07:22] <sipior> jusama14: really? oh, then GLX is fine
[07:22] <Whitor> I used envy to install the ati driver
[07:22] <sipior> jusama14: not sure why glxinfo is crapping out then. might be that the X driver for the card isn't finished
[07:23] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  Do you have IM?
[07:23] <nerdygirl_ellie> (yahoo)
[07:23] <lHck> just installed vino, but how to start this service please ?
[07:23] <man_id_unknown> How do I fully install GTK and all dependancies?
[07:23] <spider> i want to install ubuntu, but after start installer my Monitor go "out of range - max 1280x1024" can anyone help me?
[07:23] <Parr> Not Yahoo, I do have MSN though...
[07:23] <HymnToLife> man_id_unknown, could you be more precise ? what exactly do you want to install and why ?
[07:24] <jusama14> unreal tournament works
[07:24] <nerdygirl_ellie> spider:  The short version is to edit your xorg.conf and change your resolution and refresh rate to something your monitor supports.
[07:24] <jusama14> i'll play with that for now lol
[07:24] <sipior> jusama14: unless glxinfo is vital to you, i'd say just let it alone then
[07:24] <jusama14> cya later man, thx a lot
[07:24] <jusama14> ohk
[07:24] <jusama14> oh
[07:24] <man_id_unknown> HymnToLife: I want to install GTK for development.
[07:24] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  Is your wireless network secured or open?
[07:24] <sipior> jusama14: my guess is that the driver is a work in progress
[07:24] <shezif> someone here knows herew ?
[07:24] <Parr> Secured

[07:24] <flami> hi
[07:24] <spider> how can i edit the xorg.conf if i don't have ubuntu installed?
[07:24] <HymnToLife> man_id_unknown, you most likely neet libgtk2.0-dev then
[07:24] <jusama14> thx
[07:25] <man_id_unknown> HymnToLife: Exactly.
[07:25] <lHck> anyone let me know how to start vino please ?
[07:25] <HymnToLife> just apt-get it
[07:25] <nerdygirl_ellie> spider:  oh, you haven't installed yet.  I see.
[07:25] <man_id_unknown> HymnToLife: That is exactly the file both compilers are requesting.
[07:25] <flami> I want to install ubuntu on an ancient pc that cant start from cd yet :P is there a boot floppy ?
[07:25] <spider> boot loader starts correctly
[07:25] <Spliffster> man_id_unknown: install the packages "libgtk2.0-dev" ... and maybe "libgtk2.0-doc" ... i an highly recommend glade also, an nice interface builder
[07:25] <nerdygirl_ellie> spider: you need to tell the installer to do a different video mode for installing and the live cd.
[07:25] <Epic720> having troubles installing php4 with sudo apt-get install php4
[07:25] <Parr> My security is WPA
[07:26] <man_id_unknown> Spliffster: thank you. Let me do so now.

[07:26] <spider> how? i tried the f4 Button to change the resolution, but it don't work
[07:26] <Tominator> Hi! I've got some problems installing the linux-wlan-ng... modprobe prism2_pci puts out errors (in the dmesg): http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13869/

[07:26] <soundless> hi everyone could anyone help this noob out to install the webcam on my HP DV2000 laptop
[07:26] <HymnToLife> Epic720, then apt-get install libapache2-mod-php4
[07:26] <man_id_unknown> Spliffster: Ha!
[07:27] <shouen> spider: for spider and berdygirl : vga=775 (maybe 774)
[07:27] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  Ok.  You'll have to configure "wpa_supplicant" to connect to your wireless network.  I'm not too good at that, but there are some FAQs
[07:27] <Guest5751> Does anyone knows Billy Cina?
[07:27] <sipior> Tominator: it's a little weird that it thinks the irq is 0, does lspci say anything interesting?
[07:27] <soundless> anyone pls?
[07:27] <Parr> Well il turn off my wireless security, I just want to be able to connect to my wireless V_V
[07:27] <nerdygirl_ellie> spider:  here is your answer.  There is a thingy when the cd starts that lets you enter special options, use this option vga=775
[07:27] <sipior> Tominator: is this a card which requires that formware be loaded?
[07:27] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  That would be easier.
[07:28] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  To connect to an unsecured wireless network you can use iwconfig.
[07:28] <spider> THX nerdy, i'll go try it now
[07:28] <Tominator> sipior: It just says: 01:07.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev 01)
[07:28] <nerdygirl_ellie> good luck spider.
[07:28] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  like this.
[07:28] <Syntra> I need some help installing something.
[07:28] <soundless> pls can someone help me install my webcam?
[07:28] <sipior> Tominator: maybe try lspci -v ?
[07:28] <eyal> hello
[07:29] <Fastn> Hi can someone help me out?
[07:29] <cogumbreiro> why is auctex failling to install?
[07:29] <raylu> how do you change the sensitivity/speed of the scroll wheel?
[07:29] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr: iwconfig eth1 essid "your network"
[07:29] <sipior> Tominator: and i'm pretty sure that those cards require loading firmware. do you have that set up?
[07:29] <cogumbreiro> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/auctex/+bug/102949
[07:29] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr: iwconfig eth1 ap (your ap's mac address)
[07:29] <eyal> anyone knows how i activate Python in my linux?
[07:29] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr: iwconfig eth1 commit
[07:29] <sipior> eyal: should already be done
[07:29] <Azzkikr> eyal: type python in your terminal
[07:29] <cogumbreiro> eyal, activate python? what is that?
[07:29] <Berardo> anyone knows billy cina?
[07:29] <sipior> eyal: type python, and see what happens

[07:29] <Syntra> Seriously, How to I install a simple program?
[07:30] <eyal> k. let me check
[07:30] <Parr> Is this one after the other yes?
[07:30] <soundless> Syntra: synaptic
[07:30] <raylu> syntra: with the package manager
[07:30] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  That should get you connected this one time.  THen you can install network-manager and never have to do it again. :)
[07:30] <Syntra> K, I'll try atth
[07:30] <Azzkikr> Syntra: or using apt-get
[07:30] <Syntra> *that
[07:30] <raylu> so, how do I config my scroll wheel?
[07:30] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr: yes.
[07:30] <Fastn> Im going to install Ubuntu right now, but i dont now wich one, server or desktop, im going to program - PHP/MySQL on it so... Does LAMP come with the desktop
[07:30] <EADG> Would somebody be kind enough to give me Google's ip# please.
[07:30] <Fastn> Im going to install Ubuntu right now, but i dont now wich one, server or desktop, im going to program - PHP/MySQL on it so... Does LAMP come with the desktop?
[07:30] <raylu> eadg: ping google.com
[07:30] <eyal> ok...seem to have started. now here is the thing
[07:30] <Tominator> sipior: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13905/ ; yes I have installed the linux-wlan-ng-firmware package, but I've not done anything else with it yet...
[07:30] <Azzkikr> raylu: he may not have DNS.
[07:30] <sipior> EADG: dig google.com
[07:30] <Syntra> I've got the file, and it says to run its install.sh in root or something

[07:30] <PriceChild> Fastn, do you want a gui?
[07:31] <flami> oh man ill go back to debian :P
[07:31] <raylu> syntra, what are you trying to install?
[07:31] <soundless> syntra go to console and get in your folder
[07:31] <EADG> DNS (I think thats what it's called) is down.
[07:31] <Syntra> DivX For Linux
[07:31] <eyal> i have a program which was written i think in C and is supposse to work in PPDEV interface. anyone knows what that is?
[07:31] <raylu> Azzkikr: how do I configure my scroll wheel?
[07:31] <PriceChild> !pm | Fastn
[07:31] <soundless> sudo install
[07:31] <Spliffster> Syntra: yyou have several options. most can be instaleld trough the debian package system. frontends are synaptic, aptitude, apt-get and dpkg (prolly others) ... then you can install rpms with alien or you may install build-essentials and install s/w from source (compile it for yoru platform)
[07:31] <Azzkikr> EADG: try 66.249.93.147
[07:31] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  You can get the Mac address of the AP by looking at the output from iwlist scan
[07:31] <ubotu> Fastn: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[07:31] <EADG> Azz; Dunke
[07:31] <PriceChild> Fastn, do you want a gui?
[07:32] <Fastn> Yes
[07:32] <Fastn> I have PM u
[07:32] <Landon> Hey all, I'm having a problem with my audacity, it just won't play files even though it was just doing it a little bit ago. Any ideas?
[07:32] <Azzkikr> raylu: you mean it isn't working at all?
[07:32] <PriceChild> Fastn, install a standard ubuntu, then follow the instructions from ubotu
[07:32] <PriceChild> !lamp > Fastn
[07:32] <Parr> Ugh, says "Set failed on device eth1 ; operation not permitted." when I type in "iwconfig eth1 essid networkname"
[07:32] <soundless> still needs help with installing a webcam
[07:32] <Spliffster> Parr: must do this as root .. .sudo!
[07:32] <Epic720> why can't I do anything under my administrator account?
[07:32] <Landon> It says "There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer. You will not be able to play or record audio
[07:33] <sipior> Tominator: and this error in the first pastebin happens when the module is loaded?
[07:33] <Parr> As root?
[07:33] <dogmeat> i have a lexmark 3200 printer, was wondering which printer s/w/driver i ought to use?
[07:33] <Azzkikr> Landon: sudo killall esd    -> will kill sound daemons
[07:33] <kee> i love ubuntu.
[07:33] <Tominator> sipior: yes...
[07:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  I'm sorry, put sudo before each command.
[07:33] <Spliffster> Parr: are you reconfiguring your NICs ?
[07:33] <Landon> Azzkikr: Thanks!
[07:34] <eyal> i have a program which was written i think in C and is supposse to work in PPDEV interface. anyone knows what that is?
[07:34] <Azzkikr> Landon: first shut down Audacity, then sudo killall esd (or killall esd), let me know if it worked
[07:34] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spliffster:  Parr has a wireless nic that is recognized and can scan, and needs to get connected to the wireless just once to install network-manager-gnome.
[07:34] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spliffster:  if there is another way to do it besides iwconfig, I am all ears!
[07:34] <sipior> Tominator: some dumb questions: you're sure the card is supported by the prism people, and that the correct driver is loaded? (i don't think that's the problem, but...)
[07:34] <Landon> Azzkikr: That didn't work :(
[07:34] <Spliffster> nerdygirl_ellie, Parr: the above error is thrown when no sufficient rights are available (not root) or if a firewall is blocking the interface. not sure what you did .. so pick one :-P
[07:35] <emet> does gcc's path for headers in /usr/include ?
[07:35] <sipior> Tominator: also, there's the prism54 driver, not sure if that's of use to you
[07:35] <Azzkikr> Landon: usually, when i get that error, it means some sound thing is running on my desktop. After killing those, Audacity works fine
[07:35] <Spliffster> nerdygirl_ellie: iwconfig is the way to go ... or /etc/network/interfaces if you are as lazy as i am :D
[07:35] <Fastn> What type of computer do i have, i have a Amd Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ , what should i take, standard or 64bit? :S
[07:35] <Tominator> sipior: it is a Netgear ma311 with a Prism2.5 chipset... and I think prism2_pci is the right driver (it is a PCI card)
[07:35] <Landon> Azzkikr: I know, same for me, and it was just working a minute ago, then my computer crazed out, and I had to restart. After the restart, it's not working even if it's the first process I start
[07:36] <Parr> This is alot of hard work lol.  How do I grab my AP mac addy?
[07:36] <nerdygirl_ellie> Fastn:  32 bit actually, 64 bit is a little.. em shaky?
[07:36] <Landon> Azzkikr: I restarted X again, still nothing
[07:36] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  You can see it in the 'iwlist scan'
[07:36] <soundless> anyone got an idea where to get HP webcam drivers
[07:36] <lHck> what's the best way to enable YAHOO WEBCAM support please ?
[07:36] <PriceChild> Fastn, Depends :) If you're going to do _REALLY_ intensive stuff like video encoding, you may like the performance boost of 64bit
[07:36] <EADG> Is there any way to browse the web without DNS and not knowing ip numbers?
[07:36] <Tominator> sipior: it is a 11mbit card... so i think prism54 would be the wrong driver...
[07:36] <Syntra> I've still got nothing. It says the file doesnt exist, even though I know it does.
[07:36] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  and you only have to do it once.
[07:36] <PriceChild> Fastn, However some apps aren't packaged for 64bit
[07:36] <eck> EADG: no
[07:37] <Spliffster> Fastn: is second that: don't use 64 bit version unless your really know what you do and actually need it (most don't)
[07:37] <soundless> syntra are you in the right folder?
[07:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> Fastn:  and some of them are broken.
[07:37] <Parr> it never game me any mac addresses in the scan though
[07:37] <spider> nerdygirl_ellie: i've tried vga=774/775 but its still the same
[07:37] <EADG> Hmm, bummer. Thanks eck.
[07:37] <Epic720> I am getting the error: package libapache2-mod-php4 has no installation candidate

[07:37] <HymnToLife`> Epic720, which UBuntu are you using ?
[07:37] <eck> EADG: there are some open access dns servers though, you might be able to use one of those

[07:38] <soundless> and try sudo install.sh again
[07:38] <rbs-tito> *Wireless
[07:38] <EADG> I'll google that, thanks for the heads up.
[07:38] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spider arg.  You can try installing the server version, and then 'apt-get install ubuntu-desktop', but that is no fun.
[07:38] <Landon> Azzkikr: Hahaha, I'm actually on the same page at the moment
[07:38] <Azzkikr> Landon: :D
[07:38] <eck> try searching for opendns
[07:38] <Syntra> What do you mean by go to it?
[07:38] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  Oh, so it can't see your wireless.  That sucks.  That might mean that it doesn't really recognize your wireless card.
[07:38] <Syntra> Like open the file?
[07:38] <soundless> console
[07:38] <EADG> on it.
[07:39] <spider> oh lol. but i hear the "sound" of the installer, and see nothing
[07:39] <soundless> open your console
[07:39] <Epic720> HymnToLife: I chose the option of a LAMP server, but nothing was installed.
[07:39] <nerdygirl_ellie> parr:  what type of wireless card is it?
[07:39] <Syntra> Its open
[07:39] <soundless> then type cd desktop/divx
[07:39] <ububob> In 6.10 my wireless worked fine. After 7.04 upgrade I don't auto-connect any more, so I do ifdown -a , ifup eth1 after reboots. Network settings hangs. What to do?
[07:39] <craigbass1976> Is it pretty common for OO to crash when opening files in edgy?
[07:39] <Parr> its not a card, its built into the laptop :S
[07:39] <PriceChild> ububob, feisty in #ubuntu+1
[07:39] <soundless> then try sudo install.sh
[07:39] <Denny_ZA> Landon: Anatol?
[07:39] <Parr> Iv never had drivers for it before - just let windows XP take care of it
[07:39] <Syntra> It says that directory doesnt exist.
[07:39] <Landon> Denny_ZA: ?
[07:40] <xhyuan> good night everyone~~see u
[07:40] <Flare183> how do you find out what your ip address is in KDE?
[07:40] <craigbass1976> seems to be worse when opening them up from a folder containing a mounted nfs share
[07:40] <soundless> -,-
[07:40] <Denny_ZA> Just wondering if you're someone I know.
[07:40] <craigbass1976> Flare183, sudo ifconfig
[07:40] <soundless> what folder do you need to be in
[07:40] <Landon> Denny_ZA: No, sorry
[07:40] <sipior> Tominator: hmm...i found this page: http://www.friedhoff.org/ma311.html, perhaps it would be useful to you? unfortunately, i can think of no more direct approach to solving your problem at the moment
[07:40] <Syntra> The folder is on my desktop, and its called divx
[07:40] <moosa> by the way when will feisty be ready?
[07:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  It's probably a broadcom wireless card.  Here is the short version of how to make it work.  First you want to install ndis-wrapper.  This package allows you to use the windows driver under linux.  Then you install the windows wireless driver, and finally you can connect to a wireless network.
[07:41] <rbs-tito> Are there any wireless cards with good Linux drivers?
[07:41] <soundless> have you typed Desktop or desktop :P
[07:41] <KaroSHi> moosa: define ready
[07:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> Moosa: week of April 19.
[07:41] <craigbass1976> rbs-tito, atheros I think
[07:41] <soundless> ubuntuconsole = case sensitive...
[07:41] <Tominator> sipior: thnaks I'll have look ;)
[07:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> rbs-tito: Without ndiswrapper?
[07:41] <ubuntuEdgy> hey noobs :)
[07:41] <sipior> Tominator: good luck
[07:41] <moosa> ready = every day use
[07:41] <spider> ubuntu installation works, but i cna't see anything. Monitor Out-of-range. What can i do????
[07:41] <Flare183> thanks
[07:41] <mon^rch> feisty release has been pushed back, I hear
[07:41] <Syntra> Could there be another way of getting it?
[07:42] <Parr> there a trick to installing ndis-wrapper - i read something about it in the help already being on a CD
[07:42] <soundless> hmm
[07:42] <KaroSHi> Symmetria: what kind of gfx card you got?
[07:42] <Syntra> I typed desktop
[07:42] <soundless> cd Desktop
[07:42] <soundless> use higher D
[07:42] <Syntra> k
[07:42] <rbs-tito> nerdygirl_ellie: Well, without NDISWrapper preferably. I don't mind if it is known to work perfectly in NDISWrapper. I'll look into an Atheros
[07:42] <craigbass1976> Parr, I couldn't get it to work on mine and ended up using the slower driver that comes with ubuntuand doing fwcutter
[07:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> Parr:  I'm not sure.  I downloaded the source and installed it.
[07:42] <kane77> rbs-tito, my rt2500 works... (except that on feisty it doesnt work with network manager... but after you uninstall it, it works just right...)
[07:42] <Syntra> Nope.
[07:43] <Syntra> Still nothing. :(
[07:43] <luiX_> hi
[07:43] <soundless> what path are you on with your console?
[07:43] <moosa> question: how do i know if my sound card supports ALSA
[07:43] <Warbo> spider: Try pressing ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a text console, then logging in and running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[07:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> rbs-tito:  My dell d820 has the dell 1490 card and it is great (with ndiswrapper)
[07:43] <rbs-tito> My rt2500 works, but my rt2561 is a PITA.
[07:43] <spider> ok warbo i try it
[07:43] <assasukasse> hi all, i wish to use my mp3 player in ubuntu, but when i connect it it says is just a 150mb one (is a 512one)
[07:43] <spider> but ubuntu isn't installed
[07:43] <rbs-tito> Ralink really do suck, even if they try to produce Linux drivers, they suck at it.
[07:43] <Flare183> if anybody is trying to use a broadcom wireless card then try typing in
[07:44] <soundless> SYNTRA: lets retry reopen your console type cd Desktop
[07:44] <aoirthoir> yo do we have anything on grub?
[07:44] <spider> do a console works anyway?
[07:44] <sipior> moosa: have a look at the supported cards at: http://www.alsa-project.org/
[07:44] <ddonky> Lynoure - i cant find it now, for some reason typing in the same search terms is giving different results
[07:44] <Flare183> someone having problems with a broadcom wirless card?
[07:44] <Syntra> K, I think I'm in
[07:44] <rodrigo_> Hi all. Anybody here use Ubuntu 6.10 with Backports repos?
[07:44] <Syntra> Now CD divx?
[07:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> Flare:  No, just talking about what works..
[07:44] <Warbo> spider: A console should work from the CD too
[07:44] <sipior> rodrigo_: yup
[07:44] <Parr> ffs this laptop is nothing but a pain in the ass - wont work with windows and i dont know how to work with linux - in the bin time I think
[07:45] <Flare183> ok
[07:45] <soundless> yep
[07:45] <soundless> cd divx
[07:45] <gortba> I know this is ubuntu, but there is no-one in Knoppix. If someone has a moment that can help:...
[07:45] <gortba> Hello. I was wondering if someone would help. I'm currently using the knoppix 5.1.1 live DVD. I currently have Fedora Core 6 installed on my hdd. I would like to install Knoppix on my hdd over fc6. I'm not quite sure how to do this with the installer. I think I need to partition the hdd, but I'm not quite sure how to do this. The installer lets you manual partition as an option, but I've never done it before. Can someone help?
[07:45] <Warbo> Parr: Or your local school...
[07:45] <Syntra> K, I'm in, the file is called Install.sh, Should I type sudo install install.sh?
[07:45] <mon^rch> spider: 5 bux sez you're using a monitor that don't support 1280X1024 res. you just might be better off downloading the alternate cd and then installing a desktop :(
[07:45] <spider> ok, and can i "force" my Monitor to a resolution i want? for example: 1024x786
[07:45] <craigbass1976> gortba, get to a command line and fdisk /dev/hda
[07:45] <Spliffster> gortba: prolly #knoppix would be the right place to ask
[07:45] <rodrigo_> I have upgraded using backports, and after the upgrade, the following error happen:
[07:45] <rodrigo_> sipior
[07:45] <rodrigo_> The Application "nautilus" has quit unexpectedly.
[07:46] <spider> i use 1280x1024 on my windows right now
[07:46] <nerdygirl_ellie> gortba:  Hi!  Pushing knoppix to the hard drive only feels like a good idea.  With it you don't get updates.
[07:46] <rodrigo_> You can inform the developers of what happened to help them fix it.  Or you can restart the application right now.
[07:46] <craigbass1976> gortba, or use qtparted
[07:46] <sipior> rodrigo_: and it won't restart?
[07:46] <soundless> sudo install.sh is probably enough but try both I'm still a noob too so I don't remember it exactly
[07:46] <nerdygirl_ellie> bye for now all.
[07:46] <cab938_> Just installed ubuntu 6.10 and I can't seem to compile things with gcc.  I tried both svn and ffmpeg, and both died with odd errors like "C compiler cannot create executables"
[07:46] <cab938_> Any thoughts?
[07:46] <rodrigo_> It always appear. In restart, too.
[07:46] <Flare183> !gparted | gortba
[07:46] <ubotu> gortba: 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
[07:46] <craigbass1976> gortba, qtparted is in the menu soewhere and looks like partition magic, sort of
[07:46] <rodrigo_> My desktop dont't appear.
[07:46] <nerdygirl_ellie> cab938: try installing 'build-essentials'
[07:46] <rodrigo_> if i click in the close button, the error shows again
[07:47] <rbs-tito> So if I buy a " NetGear WG311T (wg311tge)" it will work?
[07:47] <craigbass1976> gortba, unless you want to install gparted instead of course
[07:47] <craigbass1976> Is it pretty common for OO to crash when opening files in edgy?
[07:47] <Spliffster> gortba: if you want to use gparte use another repo than the ubuntu repo. ununtus gparte version is badly outdated and has seirous bugs (=read: it can destroy all your data)
[07:47] <craigbass1976> seems to be worse when opening them up from a folder containing a mounted nfs share
[07:47] <sipior> rodrigo_: hmm...i don't have that problem. i hate to suggest it, but you might try moving the .nautilus directory and restarting
[07:47] <rbs-tito> craigbass1976: Of course not
[07:48] <rodrigo_> hmmm....
[07:48] <rodrigo_> I will try it.
[07:48] <rodrigo_> Move .nautilus and restart... right?
[07:48] <gortba> ok...either GParted or qtparted is with the installation--however, I've never done it before--perhaps someone could give me a basic rundown of how the partitions should be set up
[07:48] <sipior> rodrigo_: yeah, give it a try. if it doesn't work, move it back
[07:48] <soundless> could someone help me with my webcam now pls
[07:48] <rodrigo_> Ok.
[07:48] <spider> can i force the ubuntu installer to show 1024x768 resolution on my monitor?
[07:48] <rodrigo_> Thanks.
[07:48] <soundless> I need webcam drivers
[07:49] <Syntra> I think I got it....
[07:49] <pike_> gortba: ubuntu partitions?
[07:49] <peeks> hello
[07:49] <gortba> nerdiegirl_ellie: You don't get updates with knoppix??
[07:49] <peeks> i have installed the eclipse package, that comes with JDK, but the libraries doesnt seem installed, how can i get them ?
[07:49] <craigbass1976> rbs-tito, ok, the problem is jsut with nfs shares.  When it opens, if it finally does, it's read only.  But with other programs (kate or vi) I've no trouble opening and editing files that have the same permissions as the .odt files I'm trying to mess with.
[07:49] <cab938_> nerdygirl_ellie: You da bomb, thanks
[07:49] <peeks> for example, the Scanner from the java.util  package is not here
[07:50] <gortba> pike_: No the installation disk brings up the option to manual partition
[07:50] <mon^rch> spider: download the alternate cd and install the desktop after....
[07:50] <sipior> gortba: basically, you'll be choosing a root partition for the install, and for that you should choose the partition on which fc6 is already installe.d. you should also be careful that you do not touch any partition on which you have data you want to keep...
[07:50] <ibra> ciao
[07:50] <Azzkikr> peeks: install jdk1.5 seperately, i guess
[07:51] <peeks> Azzkikr, which package ? there are lots
[07:51] <rbs-tito> craigbass1976: Oh, I did hear some problems about doing it over NFS Shares. You might have to copy the files somewhere local first
[07:51] <gortba> sipior: I don't want to keep anything--so it all goes. Don't I need to also specify a swap?
[07:51] <mon^rch> spider: your monitor is trying to displat ares with too high a refresh rate, I'm not sure you can edit the xorg.con
[07:51] <craigbass1976> rbs-tito, Gahhhh
[07:51] <sipior> gortba: yep, but you can just use the sawp partition of the old install
[07:51] <simonkern> hi, my root, home and swap partitions is encrypted by cryptsetup. today  I changed the kernel, the problem is, the new kernel don't boot
[07:51] <pike_> gortba: i ususally create a / partition and a /swap and /home / is usually only like 8 gigs but i install alot of stuff to home so you might go differently.  advantage of sep home partition is that you can maintain your configs across reinstalls of / and even use it when booting mulitple distros
[07:51] <spider> ubuntu is disapointing :-(
[07:52] <mon^rch> spider: but very nice when you got er up & running
[07:52] <Azzkikr> peeks: try this link: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Java_Development_Kit_.28JDK.29_v5.0
[07:52] <craigbass1976> spider, can you get to a command line
[07:52] <erUSUL> !java | peeks
[07:52] <ubotu> peeks: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[07:53] <spider> ya, i can get the command line whith f6
[07:53] <gortba> pike_: ok, so 8 megs for the /home. How much for / and for /swap?
[07:53] <spider> from the bootloader
[07:53] <soundless> pls someone just name some webcam drivers pls
[07:53] <bjohnson> it seems that cron only sends status emails for /etc/cron.hourly scripts if there is an error?  how can I get it to send status email no matter what?
[07:53] <rodrigo_> sipior: The .nautilus folder was re-created, but the error shows again.
[07:54] <clamiam> gortba, you're going to want more than 8 megs for /home
[07:54] <sipior> gortba: best to give about 8-10 gigs for /, maybe more. swap should be around as big as your total memory (maybe twice as big, if you have the space). /home should be everything else
[07:55] <pike_> gortba: 8 gigs for / is pretty safe. most of my space is usually in home or another partition i mount on /mnt/share or something
[07:55] <sipior> rodrigo_: sorry chief, the only other thing you might try is moving .gconfd and restarting. not sure why else this would throw up an error. if you start nautilus from the command line, what does it say in the terminal?
[07:55] <pike_> gortba: /home can quickly grow
[07:55] <mon^rch> spider: if you can get to a command lint try sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf and delete everything that says 1280X1024
[07:56] <spider> sounds good. i go try it
[07:56] <steel_lady_> hm, somebody told me this morning that VLC converts video to other formats. I tried it and realized that it is not going to work because it uses bitrates that my PDA does not recognize. somebody knows some other video converter doing the job for PDA/pocket PCs?
[07:56] <erUSUL> steel_lady_: ffmpeg
[07:56] <sipior> steel_lady: might have a go with mencoder
[07:56] <simonkern> my cryptsetup encrypted pc can't boot with a new kernel
[07:57] <sipior> simonkern: i hope you kept the old kernel?
[07:57] <steel_lady> ok, can you explain to me how to install ffmpeg? does it convert from AVI to WMA?
[07:57] <mon^rch> spider: changing the refresh rate to 60hz should help also
[07:57] <simonkern> yes, of cource
[07:57] <facugaich> anyone with NeverWinter nights installed?
[07:57] <rodrigo_> sipior: A lot of "Self Mount Volume: missing action", "Self Unmount Volume: missing action", "Self Eject Volume: missing action", "Self Format Volume: missing action" . . .
[07:57] <Parr> with linux applications what files am i trying to get? I went to a FTP with a list of things and there is loads of different types .bz2 .gz
[07:57] <Parr> whats what?
[07:57] <Azzkikr> facugaich: yeah, here
[07:58] <sipior> rodrigo_: weird, not sure how to pursue this further
[07:58] <simonkern> sipior: but how can I get the now one work?
[07:58] <rodrigo_> sipior: let me remove the .gconfd....
[07:58] <rodrigo_> sipior: .gconf or .gconfd?
[07:58] <facugaich> Azzkikr, I'm copying from an existing windows install, do I have to recreate the folder structure or all the files to one folder?
[07:58] <EADG> steel_lady: There is a free player for PDA/PPCs that will play regular .avi, mpg, ect.
[07:58] <soundless> bot help me pls
[07:58] <AlbertoP> hello
[07:59] <soundless> where is that bot -,-
[07:59] <EADG> steel_lady: Gimme a sec to check the name.
[07:59] <sipior> simonkern: not sure, you might consider leaving the root partition unencrypted...i assume the problem is that the new kernel image can't find some files?
[07:59] <steel_lady> EADG but I have win mobile on!
[07:59] <sipior> rodrigo_: eh, gconfd, i believe
[07:59] <soundless> web cam
[07:59] <soundless> cam
[07:59] <rodrigo_> sipior: ok.
[07:59] <PriceChild> soundless, ?
[07:59] <soundless> where is that bot -,-
[07:59] <PriceChild> soundless, /msg ubotu
[07:59] <simonkern> sipior: your right, when i want to boot, nothing happens
[07:59] <EADG> steel_lady: me too.
[08:00] <Azzkikr> facugaich: erm.. I don't know, I installed it from scratch (Diamond Edition) using the guides on this page: http://nwn.bioware.com/forums/viewforum.html?forum=72
[08:00] <sipior> simonkern: also, any chance you may have forgotten to build the crypto stuff into the kernel?
[08:00] <steel_lady> ok then of it works great!
[08:00] <craigp84>  /j #scotlug
[08:00] <EADG> steel_lady: The player name is tcpmp
[08:00] <facugaich> Azzkikr, ok, thanks anyway
[08:00] <facugaich> Anyone else with NeverWinter Nights?
[08:00] <steel_lady_> but anyway, I am not finding installation for ffmpeg. everybody talks about it though
[08:01] <Lin> there is anywhere a package for nvidia driver  1.0-9631?
[08:01] <mon^rch> Lin: nvidia-glx-legacy?
[08:01] <EADG> steel_lady: Download and install the codec packs too and you'lle be all set. :)
[08:01] <steel_lady> eadg, I will for sure install this one, but first I have to install windows :-/
[08:02] <sipior> facugaich: pretty sure you have to recreate the file structure. i believe there's a guide for just this, if you google for it
[08:02] <simonkern> sipior: i checked it twice  :)
[08:02] <Infohawk> Anyone know how to have a usb key launch an app when inserted into ubuntu?
[08:02] <ububob> PriceChild, Thanks, going now (was away).
[08:02] <steel_lady> EADG, can you lead me please? first do you know where is the installation of that ffmpg program?
[08:02] <mkquist> !webcam

[08:02] <facugaich> sipior, I'm following the guide at Bioware's site, but it isn't very clear on the matter
[08:02] <steel_lady> and EADG how to get codecs
[08:02] <EADG> Windows for what? to xfer data to ppc?

[08:03] <sipior> simonkern: hmm...i'm afraid this is beyond my expertise. without being able to play with the system directly, i'd suggest going back to your old kernel, and unencrypting /

[08:03] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[08:03] <Lin> mon^rch: this one is 7184
[08:03] <sipior> facugaich: well, try it that way, and if it doesn't work...
[08:03] <EADG> ffmpg or tcpmp? ffmpg is for linux, tcpmp is player for ppc
[08:03] <facugaich> sipior, yep, it's what I'm doing
[08:03] <sipior> facugaich: k, good luck
[08:04] <simonkern> sipior:  hmm.... i think it would be the fastest solution...
[08:04] <rodrigo_> sipior: Thanks your support. The problem still happen. Removing .nautilus, .gconfd and .gconf don't resolve. Thanks a lot your attention!
[08:04] <rNIUS> hi!
[08:04] <wilfred> does anyone know if the ralink wireless chipset is supported by feisty
[08:04] <sipior> rodrigo_: sorry it doesn't work for you. i'm baffled, frankly
[08:04] <sipior> rodrigo_: you might try reinstalling, but that's a long shot
[08:04] <rodrigo_> sipior: Don't worry... let's wait the Feisty Official...
[08:05] <steel_lady> EADG, what are these plugins for windows mobile?
[08:05] <Warbo> wilfred: It should be, as they have been for a while. I got problems with Dapper on SMP-enabled kernels though, don't know if that's fixed yet
[08:05] <mon^rch> feisty feisty, yummy yummy
[08:05] <spider> it doesn't work
[08:05] <MarkCh> hello. how do i record a sound i am currently playing?
[08:05] <EADG> steel_lady: the codecs for tcpmp are on the tcpmp website... with tcpmp installed you shouldn't have to convert your videos (thats what ffmpeg is for)
[08:05] <rm_you|> I'm customizing a liveCD and I want to make sure it never configures X to use "ati", only "radeon". How would I go about this? Removing the ati driver? Changing the auto config scripts? Setting a disable flag somewhere?
[08:05] <EADG> steel_lady: sec, lemme find site.
[08:06] <steel_lady> http://picard.exceed.hu/tcpmp/0.71/ EADG

[08:06] <steel_lady> EADG what are these plug-ins?
[08:06] <wilfred> warbo: networkmanager doesn't seem to recogneize them, but I can get it work by edit interfaces
[08:06] <mon^rch> !hello> Padraig_OC
[08:07] <steel_lady> EADG, should I dl all of them?
[08:07] <erUSUL> rm_you|: why would you want to do this knowing that the ati driver is a dummy one that just loads radeon or rage128 driver depending on the card it sees?
[08:07] <Padraig_OC> I have a small problem getting the DVD to work.
[08:07] <EADG> steel_lady: Plugins are just some extra bits for tcpmp... for playing uncommon files types.
[08:07] <Padraig_OC> Anyone there who can help me??
[08:07] <erUSUL> rm_you|: man ati
[08:08] <EADG> steel_lady: start with the base program first.
[08:08] <erUSUL> !anyone > Padraig_OC
[08:08] <MarkCh> hi room, how do i record a sound i am currently playing?
[08:08] <elvirolo> hi
[08:08] <mon^rch> !dvd
[08:08] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[08:08] <Warbo> wilfred: Well mine used to hang my system :( (on a laptop now with Broadcom ndiswrapper crap)
[08:08] <rm_you|> erUSUL: because most systems load the radeon driver fine, but I have a batch of computers that have ATI X600 cards, and they try to load something else.... X won't start when driver is set to "ati", only when set to "radeon", and it autoconfigures to ati\
[08:08] <elvirolo> i'm using kubuntu and my USB drive is mounted automatically ... i can do it manually though
[08:09] <steel_lady> EADG, I would like to install converting tools anyway because I would like to have it soon on my PDA and can not set up my windows now
[08:09] <pinos_grise> hi
[08:09] <erUSUL> rm_you|: that's strange... i'm afraid i can not help you...
[08:10] <rm_you|> erUSUL: ok, well, thanks anyway :P
[08:10] <elvirolo> i'm using kubuntu and my USB drive isn't mounted automatically ... i can do it manually though
[08:10] <wilfred> warbo: I'm playing with the live CD and I can see network, but not connect to it (the icon says it's connecting) but nothing happens. Just wondering if I can bypass network manager
[08:10] <EADG> steel_lady: We should take this offline, not really linux related... /join #EADG and I'll help ya out.
[08:10] <Gacoment> we
[08:10] <Gacoment> ragazzi
[08:11] <pike_> wilfred: you have a few options. easiest is sudo ifdown eth0; sudo ifconfig eth0 up; sudo dhclient eth0   <-- for dhcp
[08:11] <Gacoment> chi di voi ha mai masterizzato i dual layuer
[08:11] <Gacoment> ?
[08:11] <pike_> wilfred: you can also do static like sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.someting
[08:11] <Robert_Wright> /motd
[08:11] <rm_you|> Does any here know how the LiveCD autoconfiguration scripts work, and how I would edit them? (and has time to explain at least the Xorg one to me)? :P
[08:12] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> Gacoment ,which language?
[08:12] <rukos_> can anyone recommend a good hex editor?  (why is hexcurse no longer available from apt?)
[08:12] <Warbo> wilfred: iwconfig and stuf for wireless BTW
[08:12] <pike_> rm_you|: you can do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg for a gui like config also just gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[08:16] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> Gacoment ,don't worry ..someone who knows will come by ;)
[08:16] <Padraig_OC> I downloaded the packages suggested in the medibuntu FAQs the dvd player brings an error message "Totem could not play 'dvd:///media/cdrom0'."

[08:16] <umbyboy> so any suggestion?
[08:16] <Agrajag> Fastn: what is on the CD?
[08:16] <RAMBALDI> HOLA

[08:20] <tmroland> mon^rch : and then i modify the text on that button to suit my needs?
[08:20] <nandasunu> ok

[08:21] <tmroland> i have it
[08:21] <tmroland> but i need buttons
[08:21] <mon^rch> :)
[08:21] <agresor> rihh
[08:21] <PriceChild> tmroland, ensure you don't break copyright or licensing by copying them.
[08:21] <rm_you|> tmroland: also you might look into "Gimp", which is like photoshop, or possibly "Inkscape" which is a really cool SVG tool that might make some good buttons :P
[08:21] <tmroland> im not that good in those programs to make  buttons
[08:21] <rm_you|> Inkscape is really easy to pick up
[08:21] <cheetahfoot> i'm trying to set a configuration param which calls for a hard drive and partition number, like (hd0,1) ... how can if find out where, in that scheme, a file resides?
[08:21] <tmroland> i wanted a specialized program windows has loads of them
[08:22] <mon^rch> tmroland: cant you copy paste them intoyour new sheet?
[08:22] <tmroland> wait i need to look for some good buttons to steal first

[08:25] <moonwatcher> hello
[08:25] <moonwatcher> how do i know which ATI drivers i am using
[08:25] <moonwatcher> (T42 with ATI 9600 oh fiesty)
[08:25] <mon^rch> is there a way to get my BOINC manager to sit pretty in my notification area?
[08:25] <eck> moonwatcher: you can look at the xorg logs (typically /var/log/Xorg.0.log)
[08:26] <atomiku> Why cant I add/edit/delete policies in firestarter? The buttons are greyed out :S
[08:26] <papapapapa> Helloooow
[08:27] <A55A551N> erUSUL: thanks!
[08:27] <greig__> does anyone know if the "trust spacecam 120" works with 6.10?
[08:27] <mon^rch> atomiku: r-click in the bottom white area.... add rule?
[08:27] <PriceChild> greig__, depends on the chipset
[08:27] <atomiku> mon^rch: yeah. its greyed out
[08:27] <atomiku> oh
[08:27] <atomiku> wait
[08:27] <atomiku> AHH

[08:28] <atomiku> why is that so confusing lol
[08:28] <mon^rch> atomiku: I love firestarter
[08:28] <spider> what can i do: i start the ubuntu installer, and my Monitios says OUT OF RANGE
[08:28] <greig__> PriceChild : ive tried everything a few weeks back to get it working but i cant seems to get it, unfortunatly im new to linux/ubuntu and not having any joy, as far as i notice the cam chipset was supported
[08:29] <freezey>  how do i sent a testmail using sendmail? from command line
[08:29] <moonwatcher> (II) ATI: ATI driver (version 6.6.3) for chipsets: ati, ativga
[08:29] <Fastn> Spider: change your Hz on your monitor
[08:29] <moonwatcher> does that mean fglrx?
[08:29] <moonwatcher> ie the binary, non open source one?
[08:29] <Alex27> hi all, anyone one to help me with my sound card problem?
[08:30] <wyth> If anyone has some ATI knowledge, could I ask a question?  I've just updated to Feisty, and things are pretty good, but my ATI Radeon R250 isn't performing all that well
[08:30] <mon^rch> spider: since you're having so many problems I suggest that you download the alternate cd to do your install...
[08:30] <eck> freezey: i think you can just do something like sendmail foo@bar.com
[08:30] <spider> fstn: i cant enter my monitor menu wehan its out of range
[08:30] <freezey> eck: didnt work
[08:30] <spider> whats the alternate cd?
[08:30] <eck> now you need to type your message
[08:30] <freezey> command not found
[08:31] <sjbrown> Warbo, ah nice.  works well enough.  thanks
[08:31] <mon^rch> spider: yeah, also try changing your refresh rate to 60hz
[08:31] <eck> uh, you could install postfix, it provides a sendmail command
[08:31] <eck> that is what i have
[08:31] <spider> its an LCD
[08:31] <papapapapa> from where can i download the .deb for swiftfox ?
[08:31] <spider> no options like refresh rate
[08:32] <pike_> spider: something like that you can fix by alt-ctrl-f2 then login then either sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf or sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.  or use altcd
[08:32] <eck> otherwise you probably need to grab one of the exim packages (or make sure it isn't in some other path)
[08:32] <freezey> eck: after typoing the subject etc... it brings you to the body... how do you send it now?
[08:32] <spider> pike: but i havn't installed ubuntu
[08:32] <pike_> spider: yes from the livecd
[08:32] <kps_> how do i make grub use a certain menu.lst?

[08:34] <BlobbDobb> Who here is a Grub expeert
[08:34] <wyth> here's the thing: fglrx worked great on Edgy, but won't take on Feisty.  When I use the ATI driver that comes with Feisty, every time I do something a little graphics-intensive, it looks like my screen is growing hair. I've been looking for a fix for a while now.
[08:34] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  I just installed Samba, can someone tell me how I can view the shared files on my windows box?  When I try it gives me a message in effect to "Access Denied"
[08:34] <craigbass1976> |Jason8|, is it wide open?
[08:35] <|Jason8|> craigbass1976, no.  the windows box isn't wide open
[08:35] <BlobbDobb> Who here is good with Grub?
[08:35] <pike_> spider: id ignore the hp cd and go to ubuntu.com then download either the livecd or alternate. youve paid for windows already also so dont feel bad about downloading whatever version via torrent if you want
[08:35] <mon^rch> (factory recovery disks are for people who like to cross their fingers lots)
[08:35] <payan> i've been kind to him :)

[08:36] <MebePwnd> Oh, hello.
[08:36] <MebePwnd> Is this all that goes on here? Parts, joins, and quits? :/
[08:37] <|Jason8|> craigbass1976, I can access the files on the ubuntu box from windows.  I'm talking the other way around.
[08:37] <moosa> it IS irc
[08:37] <|Jason8|> using Samba, how can I get clearance from the windows box?
[08:37] <KurtKraut> Upgrading packages makes my system very slow. How can I raise the upgrading process priority to make may system more responsive ?
[08:37] <gooffy> I have problems with my wireless conection

[08:38] <philipsmith> Hi, Y'all. I have 2 Ubuntu machines and I want to be able to use one (machine "A") to do all the things on the other (machine "B"). Specifically, I want to be seated at A, open a window, and have it look and perform just like the desktop of B. How can I do this? SSH seems to give me only the directory structure of B, and "Terminal Server" doesn't seem to work. What should I do?
[08:38] <|Jason8|> craigbass1976, there shouldn't be.  although my sister was having firewall-like problems on it.
[08:38] <KurtKraut> eck, but the upgrading calls others programs like gzip or even perl scripts. Will they be with higher priority too ?
[08:38] <|Jason8|> philipsmith, vnc to it
[08:38] <moosa> MebePwnd, yes
[08:38] <eck> KurtKraut: they will inherit the nice value of the parent process

[08:39] <craigbass1976> |Jason8|, well, shut it off.  If things work, fine.  How have you been mounting it up?
[08:39] <atomiku> ive added the policy
[08:39] <atomiku> the port still looks closed
[08:39] <mon^rch> atomiku: hey...
[08:39] <eck> although there are still things a niced process can do to slow down a system (e.g. agressive I/O use)
[08:39] <KurtKraut> eck, oh, good to know that. Thanks a lot !
[08:39] <papapapapa> where is the location off the apt-get ? where is the folder?
[08:39] <moosa> according to the sun postion MebePwnd
[08:39] <craigbass1976> |Jason8|, after finding that it works with the firewall off, it's a questions of how to have the firewall still on but allowing smb traffic

[09:11] <bahadunn> so I do not receive the mail
[09:11] <RARCA> So, to solve the internet problem, I should disable ipv6 and it should work?  or should I do that and then run dhclient?

[09:11] <Pici> topspin: Kubuntu and Ubuntu share the same core packages, but kubuntu has kubuntu-desktop and ubuntu ubuntu-desktop metapackages.
[09:11] <bahadunn> I have no idea why there would be a problem but it has something to do with client certificates

[09:14] <kazim86> huh... room.. i felt what i think is a homely feeling... i m just coming from #fedora
[09:14] <topspin> Pici: I'm thinking I'd like to try kubuntu and I'm fishing to find out if it... gets the same level of attention and care as ubuntu.
[09:14] <shmeelAway> hey, i just downloaded the new xconf files, and my gnome session doesn't work, shows black screen then sends me back to the nVidia logo, but KDE session works fine still
[09:14] <papillon> anyone can help me with lyx, Latex
[09:14] <EnsignRedshirt> !anyone
[09:14] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:15] <Pici> topspin: On the most part yes.  The packages are grabbed from the same repositiores.  We get alot of people in here with Kubuntu issues, its just Ubuntu with KDE installed by default.
[09:15] <kazim86> and when u find that other IRC like #fedora wont answer ur queries but rather discourage a newbie... u come to know the real value of #ubuntu and why ubuntu is so home
[09:16] <snarfer> OK, seriously
[09:16] <kazim86> this room has maintained far more friendly environment than any other room...
[09:16] <igor> hjhj
[09:16] <joeyk_> kazim86, and plus apt owns rpm's lol
[09:16] <snarfer> This is starting to tick me off
[09:16] <papillon> i hope someone help me about lyx, Latex and memoir.cls
[09:16] <EnsignRedshirt> papillon: Have you asked a question?
[09:16] <kazim86> joeyk_: i think i did a wrong thing when i told them that i use ubuntu
[09:17] <kazim86> joeyk_: they must be a jealous or something... lol
[09:17] <gortba> kazim86: That literally just happened to me. But someone here helped me with my knoppix install
[09:17] <snarfer> Why won't Ubuntu install?
[09:17] <topspin> Pici: thanks. I miss Konqueror pretty bad as I use Suse all day at work.  Unfortunately Nautilus just doesn't cut it.  It wish it did but...
[09:17] <snarfer> I have a swap

[09:19] <Ademan> Epic720: synaptic? apt-get?  can you paste the exact error? it could be your repository server is down
[09:20] <EADG> azky /join #channel name
[09:20] <A55A551N> If I apt-get install <package>....how do I ensure that all dependent packages are available for the objective program to work properly?

[09:20] <barronvon> can anyone suggest a good readily available wifi laptop card that work with ubuntu 6.10 out of the box? I am tired of screwing around with this realtek 8185?
[09:20] <topspin> snarfer: it looks like (from your screenshot) that you are specifing a / file system...
[09:20] <topspin> which is good
[09:20] <shmeelAway> can any1 help me fix my xconf file? the last update screwed it up so thati can't start up gnome
[09:21] <snarfer> Yes, that would be root, to my understanding
[09:21] <Ademan> barronvon:  my intel wireless worked perfectly out of the box, and i hear ALL intel cards are like that
[09:21] <PriceChild> !xconfig > shmeelAway (see pm from ubotu)
[09:21] <moosa> one last question my bluetooth device have been on sence i installed ubuntu how do i turn it off?
[09:21] <topspin> snarfer have you examined the text console for any clues?
[09:21] <barronvon> Ademan: thanks
[09:21] <Ademan> no problem
[09:22] <snarfer> Where would I find this?
[09:22] <papillon> shmeelAway, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.<your last one> xorg.conf
[09:22] <whitor> Having trouble gettin an ATI (I know Iknow) radeo mobility x1300 working with hardware 3d support
[09:22] <Epic720> how do I give permissions to the folder www to a user beside root?
[09:22] <whitor> radeon
[09:22] <snarfer> /var/install.log ?
[09:22] <Ademan_away> !ati > whitor
[09:22] <papillon> shmeelAway, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.<your last one> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:22] <shmeelAway> papillon, i don't understand, what's my last one?
[09:22] <topspin> snarfer: press ALT-SHIFT-1 while inside the installer.  That should cause the text console to appear.
[09:22] <Ademan_away> whitor: that's all i can really think of, unless you've already done that
[09:22] <iratiku> Alright I give up - there appears to be no way to get time to work correctly in ubuntu - how do I set it manually ?
[09:22] <whitor> Ademan_away: Nothing popped up
[09:23] <kazim86> snarfer: are u sure sdb2 is the root partition ... ? did u format it ext3 etc?
[09:23] <whitor> Ademan_away: your !ati didn't work
[09:23] <Ademan_away> whitor: should have been a PM
[09:23] <AlCantara> notebook with intel shared-mem graphic. how to install the intel-driver? do I need to know the model or is it an all-for-one driver?
[09:23] <Ademan_away> !ati | whitor
[09:23] <ubotu> whitor: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:23] <snarfer> yes, I formatted it as ext3
[09:23] <whitor> Oh I see it now, thanks
[09:23] <Ademan_away> that should work at least
[09:23] <papillon> shmeelAway, after each modification in xorg.conf the system saves a file called xorg.con.29032007 for example
[09:23] <Ademan_away> haha no problem, but you've probably already done it, but it may be worth reading over
[09:23] <shmeelAway> papillon, and how can i find my lastone?
[09:23] <SurfnKid> :)
[09:23] <Madeye> guys, since I upgraded to Feisty I'm getting this error apache2: Syntax error on line 185 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.load: API module structure `php5_module' in file /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so is garbled - perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO?
[09:23] <topspin> snarfer: ALT-7 (or some other digit) should get you bad to the installer framebuffer.
[09:24] <whitor> yeah... been there and back again
[09:24] <rwoodward> craigp84: I am setting up the CUPs now.  I had to reboot the XP machine because it would not let go of the old test print job.
[09:24] <papillon> shmeelAway, you can see in /etc/X11 directory
[09:24] <dmead_> is there a decent way to fix apt?
[09:24] <dmead_> dpkg fails for me when trying to get new packages
[09:24] <dmead_> and i'm trying to upgarde from breezy to eft
[09:25] <whitor> its a shame... my ati mobility firegl card works fine... its a shame the newer card does not.. and its in a laptop, so I cant change it
[09:25] <snarfer> Nope
[09:25] <papillon> shmeelAway, type cd /etc/X11
[09:25] <snarfer> Nothing's bringing me to the framebuffer
[09:25] <dmead_> once apt is fucked it's fucked?
[09:25] <papillon> shmeelAway, type ls  ... after that
[09:25] <ompaul> dmead_, you can't do that - you just one to the other and language of that nature is not required
[09:26] <papillon> shmeelAway, is it clear?
[09:26] <WolfAngel> I'm having a trouble with my ALT GR key, does anyone know to such a problem?
[09:26] <HairyDude> hello
[09:26] <max_> dmead_ apt is just a front end for dpkg
[09:26] <arigold> I have 2.6.17 running (6.10...) and I am trying to find the holy grail for Atheros. The steps I took showed that hw probe does not show the right code for the compatibility chart.
[09:26] <shmeelAway> papillon yes
[09:26] <shmeelAway> trying it now
[09:26] <Chetwin> Hi all
[09:26] <topspin> snarfer: perhaps it's CTRL-x where x is 2..8
[09:26] <HairyDude> re https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash, is there a public key available for the feisty debug repo?
[09:26] <iratiku> How do you manually set the time in ubuntu - no matter how i run it - its wrong. .. i need to set it manually - its wrong in the database ... every timestamp is wrong -- the whole system is off because of the system time and I _really_ need to get this fixed asap .... how do you manually set the system time ?
[09:26] <snarfer> Oh, great
[09:26] <mina_linux_Tux> in my way to install ubuntu 6.10 , always i get a black screen for a long time while the CD is steel reading , any comment ?
[09:27] <biff_> does anyone know what would make Azureus close quickly after being opened?
[09:27] <snarfer> I didn't allocate enough space
[09:27] <dmead_> max_: is it common to break dpkg when we upgrade major versions?
[09:27] <max_> WolfAngel : you have a GR key ?
[09:27] <topspin> iratiku: the 'date' command in a terminal can do that
[09:27] <WolfAngel> an "ALT GR" key
[09:27] <snarfer> Apparently
[09:27] <arigold> iratiku - system function?
[09:27] <biff_> I get 'Aborted (core dumped)' in the terminal
[09:27] <arigold> mina_linux_Tux - same happens to my thinkpad with CD
[09:27] <max_> dmead_ apparently
[09:27] <pike_> iratiku: run 'date' to get an idea of the syntax then one way is to sudo date -s newstringvalue
[09:27] <dmead_> =/
[09:27] <iratiku> x   "2007-04-04 15:26:00"  sets the time ... what is x
[09:27] <max_> WolfAngel wuts dat?
[09:27] <EADG> iratiku: Make sure your bios time is correct too.
[09:27] <snarfer> What. The. Hell.
[09:28] <mina_linux_Tux> is it something related to ubuntu to don't be able to detect the VGA
[09:28] <mina_linux_Tux> arigold: so ?
[09:28] <pike_> iratiku: i believe the value has to be in quotes if you do the -s
[09:28] <sh4zzr> hi. just installed edgy on a toshiba satellite 1410-303 and I'd like to add compiz-support to it....tried a couple of beryl-howtos, but I couldn't get it to work properly....black screen and shit. So I'd be glad if someone could give me some pointers of how to get going....
[09:28] <PriceChild> mina_linux_Tux, how much ram do you have? Have you tried using safe video mode?
[09:28] <mina_linux_Tux> PriceChild: 96
[09:28] <WolfAngel> ... It's a key I have at least, I need it to write dollar sign, back-slashes, brackets and pipelines
[09:28] <topspin> snarfer: I had a nice fight with the installer on a USB drive myself.  I did get through it though, so don't give up.
[09:28] <PriceChild> sh4zzr, compositing is not for beginners, support in #ubuntu-effects
[09:28] <max_> iratiku : the command 'date' will set the date and time
[09:28] <PriceChild> mina_linux_Tux, 96Mb ?
[09:28] <max_> man date
[09:29] <arigold> mina_linux_Tux: I was just saying that I have the same response... never figured out the way to shorten the timeline
[09:29] <iratiku> why is the time wrong though
[09:29] <mina_linux_Tux> PriceChild: yes maybe it 's abnormal , but it's true
[09:29] <PriceChild> !alternate | mina_linux_Tux
[09:29] <ubotu> mina_linux_Tux: 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.
[09:29] <joebob777as7> can someone help me troubleshoot an install on my tablet?
[09:29] <ep2011> You can install Ktorrent with gnome, correct?
[09:29] <iratiku> its the correct time zome -  and its 3:27 in central daylight savings ... date says CDT ---   but its an hour behind !? ??
[09:29] <PriceChild> mina_linux_Tux, use the alternate installer for machines with less than 192Mb RAM
[09:29] <topspin> snarfer: the partition you specified was 88G... that is more than enough space.
[09:29] <arigold> iratiku: could be a BIOS / battery issue..
[09:29] <barronvon> is samba pretty easy to setup in ubuntu?
[09:30] <iratiku> but... its set to the ntpdate servers!! -- are they wrong too ?
[09:30] <mkquist> whats the apt-get for gstreamer?
[09:30] <GionnyBoss> iratiku: you have to set correctly "use UTC time" and that stuff... try some different options and then it will work with time server properly, too
[09:30] <arigold> barronvon: hint - make certain you are consistant with all user names and passwds
[09:30] <max_> barronvon : yes - but no gui
[09:30] <barronvon> I am looking to setup samba so I can dump files over my windows network
[09:30] <iratiku> ugh..... I'll just set it -- i just don't have the time to read a thousand man pages -- if there was a link to a guide concerning this --- then i could read that ...
[09:30] <max_> barronvon : i forget what the samba gui is but - it's out there
[09:31] <Flare183> does anybody know how to change the workgroup name on samba
[09:31] <mina_linux_Tux> PriceChild: what makes The current not works with memory less than 192
[09:31] <max_> barronvon : samba is great for that =] 
[09:31] <arigold> barronvon: swat
[09:31] <PriceChild> mina_linux_Tux, not current. the "Live" or "Desktop" cds _require_ 192Mb
[09:31] <arigold> barronvon: swat is the web interface for samba
[09:31] <GionnyBoss> Flare183: in samba.conf there's a workgroup option... just go and edit the conf file
[09:31] <max_> Flare183 : it's your linux machine name i think
[09:31] <Flare183> ok
[09:31] <max_> flare183 : i mean your hostname
[09:31] <barronvon> max_ and arigold: thanks
[09:31] <joebob777as7> can someone help me troubleshoot an install on my tablet? I can't boot the live cd on my toshiba 1400x1050 display
[09:32] <max_> nm
[09:32] <joeljkp> is there a way to get eclipse to use sun java instead of gcj?
[09:32] <mina_linux_Tux> PriceChild: it's ok why and from where can i get this alternate CD and does it have like a netinstall ?
[09:32] <arigold> barronvon: no problem :-0
[09:32] <sirkism> seems like the updates are slowly eating up hard drive space on my computer-if I went back on the live cd would I be able to expand the size of my root directory?
[09:32] <max_> joebob777as7 : there is a great tablet howto on the ubuntu pages
[09:32] <RARCA> Hey again....  so typing "sudo dhclient" did not result in me getting more internet than just gmail and google.  any other ideas?
[09:32] <PriceChild> !alternate > mina_linux_Tux (see the pm from ubotu)
[09:32] <arigold> mina_linux_Tux: check out the released directories in ftp mirrors for alternative
[09:32] <robinlinth> Where can I get support for Second Life?
[09:33] <max_> RARCA : you can surf the web but not do anything else?
[09:33] <pike_> joeljkp: are the links in path pointing to sun? sudo update-alternatives --config java i believe
[09:33] <PriceChild> robinlinth, from the second life forums
[09:33] <RARCA> Max:  I can only surf those 2 sites
[09:33] <max_> robinlinth : www.secondlife.com

[09:35] <robinlinth> max_, I've been banned out. I had requested a move to the Teen Grid, because I am underaged. I sent a photo of my ID card with it. They haven't get back ever since.
[09:35] <mina_linux_Tux> arigold: where on http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download ?

[09:36] <pike_> kazim86: typically i setup an ssh server at home and ssh into that to run irssi. port forwardiing is also an option
[09:36] <robinlinth> me: Where can I get support for second life? them: <mon^rch> robinlinth: heaven?
[09:36] <EADG> None of my 3 linux boxes nor the WinXP machine can access DNS, even after rebooting (router & modem too) but my Palm is able to see the web. Any ideas?
[09:37] <robinlinth> and they just continue their offtopic chatter, not answering to my question.
[09:37] <dmead_> does anyone know what package in apt contains the apache module Apache Module mod_auth_basic
[09:37] <kazim86> pike_: well how do u setup ssh when ports are blocked!
[09:37] <arigold> palm is on different network then the rest...right?
[09:37] <EADG> No sir
[09:37] <pike_> kazim86: you can designate the port in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[09:37] <EADG> Connects to the same router.
[09:37] <ompaul> robinlinth, please stop, you are offtopic for here, and other places are other places

[09:37] <robinlinth> ompaul, alright, then..
[09:38] <ubuntu> hey i need help with something
[09:38] <max_> kazim86 : connecting to IRC is an outbound connection - you dont need open ports for that
[09:38] <kazim86> pike_: if i tell u my router menu etc... can u tell me how to do port forwarding...
[09:38] <iratiku> oh my god i'm an idiot
[09:38] <joebob777as7> max_: yes i've got the feisty beta and i get xorg errors before boot to the live portion
[09:38] <mina_linux_Tux> from where can i get or install this alternate CD ?
[09:38] <bullgard4> waseem: Obtain an CD.
[09:38] <waseem> bullgard4: ok
[09:38] <iratiku> i trusted the windows time and assumed the server time was wrong this whole time....    it was time.windows.com that was not reporting or syncing correctly - my time was off.. the server time was dead on
[09:39] <max_> joebob777as7 : errors about your tablet ?
[09:39] <kazim86> max_: gaim refuses saying port is blockd or something

[09:57] <Rkelly> well
[09:57] <Rkelly> i use to agree
[09:57] <gadgerama> i'm fairly happy with edgy
[09:57] <jaevel> i love Ubuntu until i mess it up
[09:58] <Rkelly> same
[09:58] <jaevel> then im hating life...
[09:58] <jaevel> lol
[09:58] <jaevel> but it is usually my falt....
[09:58] <jaevel> fault*
[09:58] <Factory> It's ALWAYS my fauklt.

[09:58] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:58] <jaevel> LOL
[09:58] <gadgerama> yeah, i killed my version of dapper and had to start over ...
[09:58] <disasm> jaevel: try partimage before you break it ;-)
[09:58] <RARCA> I would love to use it...  but I am still fighting with the internet and getting past google.com and gmail.com with ubuntu
[09:58] <Rkelly> i re installed it
[09:58] <Rkelly> same problem again
[09:58] <jaevel> partimage? backup ?
[09:59] <RARCA> yup
[09:59] <jaevel> kewl
[09:59] <RARCA> still not working....
[09:59] <jaevel> is it preloaded?
[09:59] <disasm> RARCA: wait, you can get to google/gmail but no where else?
[09:59] <RARCA> yeah....
[09:59] <pursuantirc> that's bizarre
[09:59] <jaevel> nice... for ppl like me i guess
[09:59] <disasm> RARCA: do you have a windows machine?
[09:59] <RARCA> I do...  That is what I am using right now, to try and figure this out
[10:00] <RARCA> Disasm:  I have my drive partitioned so I can choose the OS I want
[10:00] <jaevel> max_: you did direct me to #linux right?
[10:00] <disasm> RARCA: print out all output from ipconfig /all and route PRINT in windows, then compare that to ifconfig and ip route show in linux
[10:00] <jaevel> max_: for my prob?
[10:00] <max_> no
[10:01] <max_> not u
[10:01] <jaevel> ok
[10:01] <max_> afk
[10:01] <jaevel> ahh
[10:01] <crazy_penguin> Good night to all1
[10:01] <RARCA> Disasm:  I will give that a go....
[10:01] <MarkCh> good morning to all!
[10:01] <jaevel> any with any idea how to get net-tools loaded from cdrom again?
[10:02] <gadgerama> hi
[10:02] <disasm> jaevel: it creates an image of a drive, I always keep a working image of / around (/ partition is usually less than 7 gigs), rather than doing a painful full reinstall
[10:02] <pursuantirc> is there a ubuntu server gui, or is it all text based.
[10:02] <disasm> jaevel: create the image from a live cd
[10:02] <gadgerama> what services you want?
[10:02] <rvhi3> hi installed ubuntu 6.06 on a celeron d process, but only see one cpu, is that right?
[10:03] <pike_> pursuantirc: there is no gui in server install though you can apt-get one
[10:03] <disasm> pursuantirc: server is the minimal install, it uses same repos so if you want a gui, you could technically install one, I avoid gui's on servers at all cost though
[10:03] <pike_> pursuantirc: xserver i mean
[10:03] <jaevel> disasm: loading live cd gives option to create backup?
[10:04] <magnanimous> which port do I connect to for FTP?
[10:04] <MarkCh> hello, does anybody know how to record music currently playing? i can easily do this in windows...
[10:04] <pursuantirc> thanks for being kind, and thanks for the info
[10:04] <disasm> jaevel: yeah, get a cd that contains partimage (does ubuntu live cd? I'm not sure) I think it's insert.cd that I've been using, however, I got so many live cd's laying around...
[10:04] <gadgerama> mag - normally 21
[10:04] <magnanimous> MarkCh: yes.  install audacity
[10:04] <pursuantirc> askiing for gui on the server says "newbie" all over it, and I appreciate the info
[10:04] <magnanimous> gadgerama: thank you
[10:04] <disasm> MarkCh: loopback cable/audacity
[10:05] <gadgerama> np
[10:05] <disasm> MarkCh: by loopback, I mean spkr out -> line in
[10:05] <jaevel> disasm: kewl, i have 6.10 edgy, might be on there?
[10:05] <magnanimous> MarkCh: audacity lets you select an option where you can record what's currencly going thruogh your speakers and record it as ogg, wav, or mp3
[10:05] <Kaneda> Hello. I am running Ubuntu off the CD because I messed up my nvidia configuration and really destroyed my X server config thing. is there any way I can access the files through the CD and save my ubuntu configuration?
[10:05] <pursuantirc> any tips or tricks for a newbie ubuntu server admin?  I have other windows servers, but want to switch from the darkside.
[10:06] <magnanimous> MarkCh: though, you can only record it as mp3 if you install the codecs
[10:06] <dom> does anyone know - is the wacom-tools package up to date?
[10:06] <shmeelAway> Has anyone here updated the xconf file from the update manager?
[10:06] <disasm> magnanimous: without a stereo cable coming out of spkr out? I didn't know that
[10:06] <Rkelly> if ubuntu boots to a black image on both monitors with a white dash it the top left what should i do
[10:06] <PriceChild> pursuantirc, try things to do things you need to.... iif you need help then ask.
[10:07] <pike_> Rkelly: can you alt-ctrl-f2 and get a login screen?
[10:07] <Kaneda> don't mean to be impatient but, anyone?
[10:07] <magnanimous> disasm: you don't need to actually hear the music for your system to play it....  I hope I didn't mis-understand te question
[10:07] <Priest-of-Psi> hmmmm this tvcard is crap
[10:07] <Kaneda> I dont want to reinstall :(

[10:08] <magnanimous> Kaneda: just change the xorg.conf back to the orriginal ... you did keep a backup, right?
[10:08] <disasm> I can't believe I just wrote bind ;-)
[10:08] <Kaneda> I cant seem to access my hard drive off this cd, and even if I could  I dont know what to do

[10:15] <Kaneda> <--- noob
[10:16] <Factory> Capturing photo images and providing them as a video source to client applications mostly.
[10:16] <PriceChild> DarphBobo, afaik that's an ubuntu distro with different preinstalled apps from the ubuntu repos, nothing special so yse
[10:16] <Kaneda> what exactly are "running operations" and what is the "current server" ?
[10:16] <Factory> Also it can show your desktop as a source as well.
[10:16] <Factory> Or a video file, too.
[10:16] <Desp_> iam trying to set admin passwd for mysql and iam getting this mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed

[10:16] <Kaneda> so nothing major?
[10:16] <PriceChild> Factory, hmm
[10:16] <Desp_> hrmmm
[10:16] <Kaneda> my programs wont be affected
[10:17] <PriceChild> Factory, I think it will be more of finding different apps for each purpose
[10:17] <Factory> That'd be fine, PriceChild
[10:17] <Factory> However, My googles have been fruitless
[10:17] <Desp_> no
[10:17] <Desp_> I havent set one yet
[10:17] <Factory> PriceChild, was just wondering if anyone knew of one or where specifically I should look or WHAT I should search for.
[10:18] <gadgerama> Factory - why not contact the developers?
[10:18] <PriceChild> Factory, I don't know any off the top of my head sorry
[10:19] <Factory> PriceChild, ah well.
[10:19] <Factory> and gadgerama , what do you suggest I say? =p
[10:19] <Desp_> anything wrong with this command to set the passwd mysqladmin -u root password yourrootsqlpassword
[10:19] <Factory> "Hay would you guys write this for linux, too? lol!"
[10:19] <PirateHead> For some weird reason, sound juicer cannot import a CD unless it is run as root. This is a recent problem, as just weeks ago I could import CDs as my normal user account. Can anybody help me fix that?
[10:19] <PriceChild> Factory, there are many apps which capture a desktop to a file.... I see no reason why not to stream if you hit it...
[10:19] <gadgerama> Factory - try, you ain't ported your software to linux. what can I use instead? :-)
[10:19] <vassely> what is the command for downloading all the needed files for building a program?
[10:19] <Factory> gadgerama, ah smart man.
[10:19] <Priest-of-Psi> err
[10:20] <Priest-of-Psi> gives up
[10:20] <bruenig> PirateHead, figure out what exactly sound juicer does, as in where it runs, and where it puts stuff, and then make sure those things have appropriate permissions
[10:20] <gadgerama> heh
[10:20] <Factory> PriceChild, Ah well see, I'm strying to get it so I can do it on the fly, specifically in a flash player (they use it on acommunity site)
[10:20] <Spliffster> Factory: istanbul is a nice app to record desktop sessions as video. there are many .. i have tried seom ... istanbul is all i can remember (this is what i eventually used)
[10:20] <Factory> Spliffster, Yes I use this, just not sure how to send this as a webcam stream, yahknow?
[10:20] <PirateHead> bruenig: hmm... I never thought that perhaps I had changed my media folder permissions. I will look into that. I had rather suspected the CD device permissions, but that didn't really make sense to begin with.
[10:21] <vassely> gnomefreak: well it worked finally.. do you know what is the command for downloading all the building files needed for a certain program?
[10:21] <bruenig> PirateHead, are you saying the thing won't open without root or won't run properly without root, if the latter, it could be a problem with the temporary directory it uses, (assuming it uses a temp directory, probably does)
[10:21] <Priest-of-Psi> why will I not have /dev/video0?
[10:22] <Spliffster> Factory: no. i guess it depends what kinda format you are going to use.
[10:22] <gnomefreak> vassely: there are 1000+ people in here they know the answers as well. sudo apt-get build-dep <package>
[10:22] <mina_linux_Tux> if you here say that ubuntu 6.10 requires memory not less than 192 , so even  i tried 4.10 which requires minimum 32 M of memory and it works with installation but not for the logon screen it hangs at grub before the grub option , may i know what was the reason ?
[10:22] <pike_> Factory: if youre looking to script somthing ive dont this before: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=07/03/09/2013236 .  results arent perfect but it works
[10:22] <vassely> gnomefreak: i'm sorry for disturbing you, but anyways thanks for your kind help to me
[10:22] <PriceChild> mina_linux_Tux, the live/desktop install cd requires 192Mb ram
[10:23] <PriceChild> mina_linux_Tux, an installed ubuntu doesn't require 192
[10:23] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: give me a hand will ya?
[10:23] <PirateHead> bruenig: I figured it out - it was a dumb noob mistake. I created a new partition for my music and mounted it at /music -- but the /music folder is owned by root and good permissions were not given. I'll be the whole thing will be fixed when I give universal write permissions to the /music folder
[10:23] <Factory> Thanks you guys)_
[10:23] <Factory> =)
[10:23] <bruenig> PirateHead, good
[10:23] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, hey
[10:23] <Priest-of-Psi> hey buddy
[10:23] <PriceChild> PriceChild, installed tvtime?
[10:23] <Priest-of-Psi> hehe
[10:24] <crdlb> lol
[10:24] <PriceChild> argh
[10:24] <PriceChild> PriceChild, installed tvtime?
[10:24] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: pm?
[10:24] <Priest-of-Psi> hehe
[10:24] <PriceChild> !pm > Priest-of-Psi (see pm from ubotu)
[10:24] <mina_linux_Tux> PriceChild: i'm talking about 4.10 it hangs before  the Grub options , i didn't even get th way to figure out what's going on , that what i'm asking about . not an installed ubuntu
[10:24] <Priest-of-Psi> yup yup
[10:25] <PriceChild> mina_linux_Tux, 4.10 is no longer supported
[10:25] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: I have yes
[10:25] <bruenig> mina_linux_Tux, 4.10 is probably unsupported at this point, not that someone won't help you, but you will have a hard time finding for that reason and some people just don't remember or know it
[10:25] <Priest-of-Psi> videoinput: Cannot open capture device /dev/video0: No such file or directory
[10:25] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, and its not picking anything up? :(
[10:25] <Priest-of-Psi> but I cant really say what driver this is
[10:25] <PriceChild> ok
[10:25] <crdlb> mina_linux_Tux, 6.10 requires less memory than 4.10
[10:25] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, what card is it?
[10:25] <crdlb> mina_linux_Tux, gnome has actually gotten lighter
[10:26] <mina_linux_Tux> crdlb: so that's why the installation went good and 6.10 installation doesn't
[10:26] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: http://pastebin.ca/424470 thats as much as I know
[10:26] <xai> I can't get our usb drive on /dev/sdb1 to mount at boot time. I have /etc/fstab setup right.. What do I need to do?
[10:26] <crdlb> mina_linux_Tux, use the alternate installer
[10:27] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, /me googles
[10:27] <PirateHead> General Linux question: where are file permissions stored? If I have multiple partitions and I overwrite my main OS partition, will my other partitions retain their current file permissions?
[10:27] <paradroid> Hi, I am having trouble with NFS and access rights concerning UIDs and UGIDD. Anyone have any experience?
[10:27] <timerabu> how do you delete dic ?
[10:27] <bruenig> PirateHead, yes they will
[10:27] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: I tried maybe google does not love me
[10:27] <dc20070404> can anyone point me to documentation of how to install Ubuntu without the desktop?
[10:27] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, MIRO PCTV pro ? :)
[10:28] <PriceChild> !alternate | dc
[10:28] <ubotu> dc: 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.
[10:28] <PriceChild> dc20070404, ^
[10:28] <PirateHead> dc20070404: it's easy. Download the Ubuntu server CD, and it will not come with a graphical desktop.
[10:28] <timerabu> how do you delete dir ?
[10:28] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: might be
[10:28] <nazo029A> @<dc20070404> try the server
[10:28] <paradroid> timerabu: rm directory_name -r
[10:28] <PirateHead> dc20070404: I'm not really sure what you mean: install ubuntu (without the desktop), or (install ubuntu) without the desktop -- ?
[10:29] <shmeelAway> does any1 know how to undo a automatic update to xconf?
[10:29] <pike_> timerabu: you need to do it recursively if there is something in the directory
[10:29] <timerabu> thank you
[10:29] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Have a look if there is a backup.
[10:29] <shmeelAway> or wehre i can find a xconf file previous to this update?
[10:29] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: I never got a box :( so I dunno
[10:30] <paradroid> shmeelAway: ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf*
[10:30] <jamesjs> Hi, i'm trying to forward an X app from a BSD server to my ubuntu box, but i  get the "can't open display".  sshd is installed on ubunutu, etc, is x forwarding disabled by defualy?
[10:30] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, Ok... your card _is_ supported... it is even in the standard kernel, however I'm not sure whether its in ubuntu's
[10:30] <waseem> does anyone know any good mirrors to download edgy?
[10:30] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: we can try?
[10:30] <waseem> the ones on the ubuntu site are taking about 2 hours
[10:30] <mina_linux_Tux> crdlb: if you say so the Live CD of 4.10 should not work right
[10:30] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, I'm thinking/trying :P
[10:30] <ny00123> hey
[10:30] <crdlb> mina_linux_Tux, 4.10 didn't have a livecd
[10:30] <shmeelAway> paradroid, and then?
[10:31] <Priest-of-Psi> hehe thanks buddy :)
[10:31] <PriceChild> !download > waseem (pm from ubotu)
[10:31] <crdlb> mina_linux_Tux, the first release with a livecd installer was 6.06
[10:31] <ny00123> synaptic in ubuntu amd64, 32-bit chroot, has the checkboxes 'invisible' :o maybe I should install some (32-bit) gtk package?
[10:31] <chili5555> jamesjs: try ssh -X user@host
[10:31] <shmeelAway> nnliu@nnliu-laptop:~$ ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:31] <shmeelAway> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:31] <paradroid> shmeelAway: So, is there a backup?
[10:32] <mina_linux_Tux> crdlb: i have both in the same package
[10:32] <shmeelAway> is that it?
[10:32] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: but it still does not explain why it does not give me a /dev/video0
[10:32] <mina_linux_Tux> crdlb: the live/install
[10:32] <dc20070404> sorry..got side tracked...when I say without the desktop I want to install without graphics mode and when installed I don't want any UI
[10:32] <jewfro-Macabbi> I've got a kde problem, my main user cannot start kde, "cannot open kstartconfig", but my other user can...
[10:32] <dc20070404> I'll try the Server CD....thanks!
[10:32] <crdlb> mina_linux_Tux, you want the 6.10 Alternate cd, it will work like 4.10's install cd
[10:32] <jamesjs> chili5555: thats what i've been using, no luck :(
[10:33] <MarkCh> jewfro-Macabbi: try /j #kubuntu
[10:33] <waseem> pricechild: thank you so much.
[10:33] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, "dmesg | grep bttv" should give something like "bttv0: model: BT848 (Hauppauge old)"
[10:33] <mina_linux_Tux> crdlb: and they says if must have at least 128 of memory, i tried and it works with the 96 M of my box memory
[10:33] <chili5555> jamesjs: is X installed on the host?
[10:33] <MarkCh> jewfro-Macabbi: kde support is better there to some degree...
[10:33] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: nope
[10:33] <ferronica> how to print 4 x 6 Size photo in ubuntu 6.10
[10:33] <Priest-of-Psi> nothing
[10:33] <jamesjs> chili5555: yes, and i've exported the right display variable, etc
[10:33] <shmeelAway> that's just my normal xconf file
[10:33] <ferronica> i wanna to print photos
[10:33] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, looks like it isn't with the ubuntu kernel then... :P
[10:33] <jewfro-Macabbi> MarkCh, thanks trying there
[10:33] <bruenig> ferronica, open it in some photo viewer, perhaps gimp or something else, and then file print
[10:34] <MarkCh> jewfro-Macabbi: no prob. good luck.
[10:34] <PirateHead> ferronica: probably Eye of GNOME is faster than The Gimp just for printing
[10:34] <lm_> hey there anybody give me a helping hand.... ive just formatted an old windows disk via gparted in gnome... how am i going to "mount" i can use it like another home dir?
[10:34] <rayman_> hi all
[10:34] <colbert> How would I uninstall my fglrx driver (I am changing video cards) ???
[10:34] <philipsmith> Hi Y'all. I've got 1 ubuntu machines, A and B. On machine A there is a directory music files. When I connect from A to B using Terminal Server Client, I can work on B, and using SSH I can mount that music directory on A... and I can navigate within that directory and see all files. Then, when I use XMS on B, I want to play music files in that mounted directory... when I look on the desktop that music directory is there. How
[10:34] <PirateHead> Hey rayman_
[10:34] <philipsmith> ever, XMMS can't find it!!! How do I get XMMS to see that mounted directory?
[10:34] <chili5555> jamesjs: dunno, maybe someone else will jump in; -X works for me.
[10:35] <ferronica> PirateHead: i wanna to print photo size 4 x 6
[10:35] <mina_linux_Tux> crdlb: ..... any comment ?
[10:35] <ferronica> PirateHead: not A4 size
[10:35] <jamesjs> chili5555: thanks!
[10:35] <timerabu> hi guy, how do i launch a program from the terminal
[10:35] <PirateHead> ferronica: Yeah, in that case you might need a specialized program. Are you printing onto glossy photo paper or something?
[10:35] <jewfro-Macabbi> timerabi, type the name, say "amarok"
[10:35] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: thats sucks
[10:35] <psycho78> Is there a way to setup my wifi card to connect to a network automatically? Going between home & school I must constantly change my network location using system >> administration >> networking.
[10:35] <ferronica> PirateHead: yes glossy
[10:35] <micahcowan> I never had problems using Eye of Gnome to print 4x6 photos...
[10:35] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Do a ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf* -lha
[10:35] <waseem> my harddrive is already partitioned because i currently have windows XP installed, are there any step-by-step manuals for installing edgy?
[10:35] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, bear with me....
[10:36] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, im' finding things :P
[10:36] <colbert> How would I completely uninstall my ATI fglrx driver (I am changing video cards) ???
[10:36] <micahcowan> I had a couple issues with it in feisty, but...
[10:36] <pike_> !gparted | waseem
[10:36] <ubotu> waseem: 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
[10:36] <Factory> Hey alright, when trying to run something with wine, I get this message: Wine(X) not in your PATH
[10:36] <Factory>   ..... However, echo $PATH shows that the path to wine is in the variable.
[10:36] <PriceChild> PriceChild, modprobe bttv
[10:37] <PriceChild> argh
[10:37] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, sudo modprobe bttv
[10:37] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: heheh
[10:37] <waseem> pike_: my harddrive is already partitioned, i just dont know how to install edgy
[10:37] <Priest-of-Psi> ok done
[10:37] <POVaddct> philipsmith: connection to a ssh server in the gnome file manager is not a real mount
[10:37] <micahcowan> ferronica, when you choose print from eog, and choose the Page Setup tab, doesn't it present a list of options for "Paper Type"?
[10:37] <pike_> waseem:  basically you can resize existing partitions with gparted or tell ubuntu to do it for you during install.  id backup anything important first though
[10:37] <POVaddct> philipsmith: or do you mount via sshfs?
[10:37] <ferronica> PirateHead: and photo size
[10:37] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: http://pastebin.ca/424474
[10:38] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, "dmesg | grep bttv"
[10:38] <timerabu> drupsta whats up?
[10:38] <micahcowan> Choosing 4x6 worked for me in Dapper (IIRC) and Edgy
[10:38] <ferronica> micahcowan: photo size
[10:38] <drupsta> timerabu :nothing much
[10:38] <pike_> waseem: edgy will want to create a small swap partition and then another large one for / on which the file system will be installed
[10:38] <ferronica> micahcowan: i want 4 x 6
[10:38] <drupsta> hi guys...i ran into a problem after installing nvidia driver
[10:39] <PirateHead> ferronica: I really don't know how that stuff works on Linux, never having done it myself. I'll bet there's something in CUPS that supports it, but whether you can find a program that makes it easy is another story. Wish I could help mroe.
[10:39] <pike_> waseem: iow you need some freespace and gparted will let you resize to get it
[10:39] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: I am going to throw this card
[10:39] <Priest-of-Psi> :(

[10:40] <philipsmith> POVaddct: I use places > connect to server  and then choose ssh and specify the IP address.
[10:40] <lm_> can anybody tell me how to mount a newly formatted (ext3) disk in ubuntu?
[10:40] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Yes.
[10:40] <shmeelAway> did you get the PM?
[10:40] <ferronica> micahcowan: which application do i use?
[10:40] <POVaddct> philipsmith: yes. that one is not a real mount, its only visible for gnome apps.
 reply to mee in the private window
[10:40] <Zikiki> what i have to tipe to join the room ubuntu-it???
[10:40] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Oh, uhm, sorry. Doesn't look like it.
[10:40] <micahcowan> ferronica, as I just spelled out, I have done it easily with eog.
[10:40] <shmeelAway> hmm, i see
[10:40] <paradroid> shmeelAway: But maybe I wasn't paying attention. :/
[10:40] <ferronica> micahcowan: i have GIMP

[10:42] <micahcowan> ferret, in Gimp, in the print window, you just select "Page Size", there's a 4x6 option. You should click Center: "Both" after that.
[10:42] <paradroid> shmeelAway: OK, there seem to be some backups. ;) Good.
[10:42] <philipsmith> POVaddct: I'll try it. BTW, does POV=privately owned vehicle?
[10:42] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, what step is that at?
[10:42] <shmeelAway> do you know how i can set those backups then?
[10:42] <POVaddct> philipsmith: no, persistence of vision
[10:42] <paradroid> shmeelAway: All seem to date back to February.
[10:42] <Priest-of-Psi> modprobe

I'd say it's about 10 pixels off
[10:46] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, looks like unless disasm has an idea we need to know what error -22 is :P
[10:46] <knueppel> ach klappt schon alles...

[10:49] <ROnewbie> hi there; for some reason I have no audio on my Gateway 3040GZ laptop - any help? (until now I managed to fix widescreen and wi-fi problems, this is almost the last one)
[10:49] <shmeelAway> -.- that might be the problem?
[10:49] <Priest-of-Psi> shmeelAway: update-pciids
[10:49] <lm_> coudl anybody here please tell me what to do with a newly formatted drive in order to make it "usable"?
[10:50] <lm_> could
[10:50] <PriceChild> lm_, what is it formatted as?
[10:50] <lm_> PriceChild: ext3
[10:50] <Priest-of-Psi> disasm: my knowladge of this is limited
[10:50] <cX-kads> how do I mount cd-rw as writeable?

[10:50] <{Core}elak> Hi, I have a problem installing ubuntu (6.10). The CD boots and shows the menu, but once I select the install option it crashes halfway through the loading.
[10:51] <cX-kads> how do I mount cd-rw as writeable?
[10:51] <PriceChild> !fstab | lm_
[10:51] <ubotu> lm_: 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
[10:51] <GoClick> Are there still live CDs?
[10:51] <ROnewbie> {core}elak: i'm no expert, but the cd may be written badly; before anything else, I'd consider burning a new one
[10:52] <pike_> elak: change your name ;p. id try the alternate install cd available at ubuntu.com. also make sure you burn it at slowest speed
[10:52] <GoClick> I got a 6.10 CD and put it in but it wants to install, but I want to boot it
[10:52] <{Core}elak> Did I mention this was my third CD?
[10:52] <GoClick> I just need to access a drive
[10:52] <micahcowan> lm_, to mount it temporarily, you can use "mount -t ext3 <device-file>"

[10:52] <ROnewbie> hi there; for some reason I have no audio on my Gateway 3040GZ laptop - any help? (until now I managed to fix widescreen and wi-fi problems, this is almost the last one)
[10:52] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: I think he left
[10:52] <ROnewbie> any ideas ?
[10:53] <disasm> Priest-of-Psi: looks like a bt878 driver by your pastebin
[10:53] <shmeelAway> i hae a nvidia geforce go 7400
[10:53] <Pelo> GoClick,  are you sure you hve the live cd and not the alternate installation ?
[10:53] <SpArTaKo> haber
[10:53] <GoClick> I didn't see an option to download any other kind of CD
[10:53] <Priest-of-Psi> docta_v: yup
[10:53] <Priest-of-Psi> but I dont even have /dev/video0
[10:54] <disasm> Priest-of-Psi: do you have /dev/video?
[10:54] <Priest-of-Psi> disasm: but the error -22
[10:54] <Priest-of-Psi> is a issue
[10:54] <Priest-of-Psi> no I dont
[10:54] <LiveKubuntu_ian> hello. Whats the firs thing i should check if a live CD only detects 1 of 2 graphics cards ?
[10:54] <Pelo> ROnewbie,  chck the forum for your laptop model do see if there are any known issues and fixes
[10:54] <disasm> Priest-of-Psi: you have mttv in /etc/modules?
[10:54] <Pelo> LiveKubuntu_ian,  the forum
[10:54] <Priest-of-Psi> bttv?
[10:55] <pike_> ROnewbie: there arent btw :)
[10:55] <Priest-of-Psi> or mttv?
[10:55] <shmeelAway> does any1 know where to find my Video card's bus identifier?
[10:55] <disasm> Priest-of-Psi: also, you need a /etc/modprobe.d/bttv file
[10:55] <ROnewbie> pelo: did that
[10:55] <GoClick> 14mbit fiber and I get 153kB/sec gershdang kids downloading their mp3s and videos... SO MAD
[10:55] <hoergen> Moin
[10:55] <disasm> yeah, bttv, bad typer ;-)
[10:55] <Priest-of-Psi> disasm: I do yes
[10:55] <ROnewbie> pelo, pike_: I know, that's the problem
[10:55] <LiveKubuntu_ian> Pelo: Checking...
[10:55] <Priest-of-Psi> I had to make it
[10:55] <Priest-of-Psi> but its there
[10:55] <Priest-of-Psi> I set the card in it
[10:56] <Pelo> LiveKubuntu_ian,  seriously  check the device manager , see that if they are actaualy detected but only one is working,  might just be that the live cd only allows you to use the one card
[10:56] <Pelo> ROnewbie,   there is a knonw issue ??
[10:57] <LiveKubuntu_ian> Pelo: I had a look and its only showing one. I did a   lspci | grep VGA and only one shows   :(
[10:57] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: -22 is a irq issue I think
[10:57] <ROnewbie> pelo, pike_: it doesn't seem to be a very common issue; the funny thing is I actually think it sees both my drivers and hardware, but for some reason there's no sound. There's a guy in those forums describing a totally random way of getting it to work (checking and unchecking the external in alsamixer, which I did, but still nothing"
[10:57] <Pelo> LiveKubuntu_ian, might be that you need to setup your second card manualy
[10:57] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, we're moving out of my depth...
[10:57] <Priest-of-Psi>  disasm I think I have a IRQ issue
[10:58] <LiveKubuntu_ian> Pelo:  hmm, know were i could find a Howto on doing that ?
[10:58] <disasm> Priest-of-Psi: when I got it working, it would only work in one pci slot, have you tried swapping it around?
[10:58] <Priest-of-Psi> I am not going to reboot
[10:58] <Priest-of-Psi> lol
[10:58] <Priest-of-Psi> thats silly
[10:58] <Pelo> LiveKubuntu_ian,  in the forum,  if you are using kubuntu the ppl at #kubuntu might be better at helping you
[10:59] <LiveKubuntu_ian> Pelo: I have tried talking to them. Thanks for your help though.
[10:59] <Pelo> ROnewbie,   ask your question again in a few hours  maybe someone will be around that will be able to help with your issue
[10:59] <shmeelAway> alright hopefully this works
[11:00] <ROnewbie> pelo: ... :-)) ... thanks, i
[11:00] <ROnewbie> I'll give it a try
[11:01] <ROnewbie> pelo: just for the sake of it: is it a familiar problem, at least from your experience ? there are  surprisingly few problems with audio
[11:01] <ROnewbie> ?
[11:01] <pike_> ROnewbie: crimsun is often helpful with sound issues
[11:01] <ROnewbie> pelo: on the forums
[11:01] <train> is there a way to have grub reinstall itsself automatically like it did when I first installed it?

[11:05] <ardchoille> Vilhelms: Beryl support in #ubuntu-effects.
[11:05] <Vilhelms> Pelo, The issue isn't beryl
[11:05] <shmeelAway> do you guys think that if i uninstalled ubuntu and reinstalled it'd work? i currently am running both gnome and KDE
[11:05] <Pelo> Jester, http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html
[11:05] <Vilhelms> ardchoille, The issue isn't beryl, its Xgl giving me problems
[11:06] <Jester> Pelo: thx
[11:06] <ardchoille> Vilhelms: Ah, ok
[11:06] <Jester626> Pelo: Thanks I'll check it out
[11:06] <pike_> mjg: ok. slashdot has made me paranoid about such things
[11:06] <ompaul> Jester, look again at dia you just need to get the right stuff in there
[11:06] <Jester> ompaul: will do
[11:06] <Jester626> ompaul:  Like what?
[11:06] <Pelo> Vilhelms,  I think that ati cards require  axgl , not xgl.  the #beryl ppl will know better
[11:06] <Pelo> sorry Jester  blame nick complete
[11:06] <GoClick> If I start a 6.10 machine with a USB drive attached to it, will it automout it? If it doesn't, where is the device normaly?

[11:06] <Vilhelms> Pelo, okay thanks
[11:07] <Jester626> ok, two Jester's :)
[11:07] <ompaul> Jester626, the last time I ran it I was in that space
[11:07] <paradroid> shmeelAway: So, what happens, is that you log in and get kicked back to GDM?
[11:07] <shmeelAway> yes
[11:07] <Jester626> ompaul:  Does it allow you to input field names and then set up realtionships?
[11:07] <shmeelAway> it worked just one time, and beryl ddin't work
[11:07] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Do you have 3D-effects installed?
[11:07] <shmeelAway> when i tried it, it kicked me out
[11:07] <ompaul> Jester626, have not used it in two years let me look
[11:08] <shmeelAway> paradroid, so you think that i should configure it to allow beryl right now?
[11:08] <shmeelAway> i don't know what else you mean by 3d effects
[11:08] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Actually I was wondering if it might be Beryl causing you trouble. :)
[11:08] <waseem> how do you change the resolution on your computer?
[11:08] <Pelo> waseem,   menu > system > prefs > screen rez or someting
[11:09] <shmeelAway> paradroid, i'm not sure, but i didn't change anything involving beryl
[11:09] <shmeelAway> no updates no nothing
[11:09] <shmeelAway> just the xconf update
[11:09] <shmeelAway> but that update might have wiped out what i previously added for beryl
[11:10] <ompaul> Jester626, I can do stuff there, it looks functional to me - try it
[11:10] <ZoOlMaN> hi all, I lost my boot
[11:10] <ZoOlMaN> how can I restore it back!
[11:10] <shmeelAway> grub?
[11:10] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: heh changed the slot now nothing
[11:10] <Pelo> ZoOlMaN,  lost your grub menu ?
[11:10] <ZoOlMaN> yes!
[11:11] <Pelo> ZoOlMaN,  what is the last thing you did before loosing it ?
[11:11] <ZoOlMaN> yes...I installed windows so it deleted the mbr record
[11:11] <pike_> !grub | ZoOlMaN
[11:11] <mon^rch> I am trying to install vmware but after a couple of fails and uninstalls when I try to install it again it fails saying that it is already installed (I know it's not) is there a way to FORCE it to install??
[11:11] <Pelo> ZoOlMaN,  I think you can resintall grub from the live cd
[11:11] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Hm, reconfiguring xserver didn't do anything for you...
[11:11] <pyr0000> can i play drm files on ubuntu? or strip the drm off?
[11:11] <ZoOlMaN> grub-install?
[11:11] <shmeelAway> paradroid, not really
[11:12] <ZoOlMaN> wats the aprobrite command
[11:12] <shmeelAway> same thing
[11:12] <shmeelAway> i will try and change it to allow beryl
[11:12] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: now when I modprobe I get nothing
[11:12] <Pelo> mon^rch,  you can try force removing it ,  search the hdd and manualy delete all instance of vmware you find
[11:12] <shmeelAway> maybe that will do the trick
[11:12] <paradroid> shmeelAway: ;)
[11:12] <wrox> how can i make my xchat not to automatically going to this network/channel after startup every time?
[11:12] <temporaryname> Firefox generates a crash report each time I boot, anyone know why?  Didn't have this problem till firefox upgraded it's self.  I would generally think it was due to add ons, but removing my add-ons didn't help a thing.

[11:15] <arnie_> i have just installed ubuntu and am wondering if its possible to install the cube effects on the desktop ?
[11:15] <pyr0000> drm in ubuntu?
[11:15] <DigitalNinja> arnie_: What version of Ubuntu did you install?
[11:16] <arnie_> 6.10
[11:16] <EADG> Is there a console web browser that will display pictures? I'm using lynx atm.
[11:16] <PriceChild> arnie_, #ubuntu-effects Compositing is NOT for beginners.
[11:16] <arnie_> i managed it on open suse 10.2
[11:16] <DigitalNinja> arnie_ : Make sure you have 3D working. Once you have that take a look at beryl
[11:16] <temporaryname> from command, firefox starts fine, just seems to be after I reboot that I generate the crash
[11:17] <DigitalNinja> arnie_ : You could install Feisty Fawn. That comes with 3D support.
[11:17] <PriceChild> arnie_, support in #ubuntu-effects
[11:17] <DigitalNinja> Or I should say a 3D desktop
[11:17] <arnie_> is feisty fawn another release ?
[11:17] <PriceChild> arnie_, feisty is not finishedf
[11:17] <temporaryname> 3d desktop?  sounds kool..
[11:18] <arnie_> so i need the latest driver for m,y nvidia fx5200
[11:18] <benkillin> how do I run an app written for SCO UnixWare under Ubuntu 6.10
[11:18] <djm62> benkillin: do you have the source code?
[11:19] <Usher> hey guys, I'm installing Ubuntu on my desktop PC right now.. whats the deal with "Select a City in your Country and Timezone" part of the installation?
[11:19] <benkillin> all I have is some sort of binary
[11:19] <benkillin> its a .Z file
[11:19] <paradroid> shmeelAway: You could of course also do some reconfiguring of other things like Nautilus, Metacity, Gnome-Panel... all that stuff related to the desktop. ;) But I'm blindly guessing right now.
[11:20] <shmeelAway> i think it's beryl
[11:20] <cafuego_> benkillin: `uncompress'
[11:20] <temporaryname> arnie_: had that issue last night..  the guys over in effects directed me to albertomilone.com
[11:20] <shmeelAway> that might be the reason KDE works not gnome
[11:20] <Agrajag> benkillin: that's a compress archive, probably.
[11:20] <Usher> help help emergency
[11:20] <cafuego_> benkillin: or use 'znew *.Z' to convert it to .gz
[11:20] <temporaryname> http://albertomilone.com/index.html
[11:20] <Droce> I have a quick, and quite probably stupid question, I'm currently installing (running this off the disk) and it says "No root file system" I thought this was "/" which I have, can anyone give me a quick hand?

[11:20] <arnie_> thanks mate
[11:20] <Agrajag> benkillin: if it's a binary you'r pretty much SOL.
[11:20] <benkillin> oh
[11:20] <benkillin> what about WINE
[11:20] <chewychomp> my 5700 overheats too much so i switched to 5200, uninstalled nvidia-glx and restricted kernels, then i reconfigured xserver(full reconfigure and  tried -phigh), and nvidia-glx does not work only nv
[11:20] <djm62> Agrajag: possibility of using vmware player?

[11:21] <Usher> PriceChild: who do I talk to about having Little Rock, AR, USA added to the map ?
[11:21] <PriceChild> Usher, use the nearest city with the same timezone
[11:22] <EnsignRedshirt> !someone | mitah
[11:22] <Agrajag> benkillin: if SCO Unixware runs on x86 processors, and that is an x86 binary you have, you might be able to run unixware in VMWare and run the program in that.
[11:22] <ubotu> mitah: 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?
[11:22] <Usher> julian1223: I've had that happen to me twice, once installing edgy and once installing feisty
[11:22] <benkillin> that's too much overhead
[11:22] <benkillin> this is a RAID management app for my RAID 1 setup
[11:22] <benkillin> I have UnixWare and Windows downloads only
[11:23] <Agrajag> benkillin: then it's not going to work
[11:23] <julian1223> know what I can do to actually see a GUI? I spent 3 hours making boot camp happy so I could try it, a BSODy screen is somewhat anticlimactic ;)
[11:23] <benkillin> damn
[11:23] <benkillin> thanks anywqay
[11:23] <Landon> Hey all, I can't seem to get my esd to stop running. I'll kill it, and then 1 minute later it'll be running again, and I can't figure out which program it is that is causing the problem. I need to kill it so I can run audacity. If anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it
[11:23] <clouder`grr> will apt-get tell me if I need to reboot after an upgrade?
[11:23] <Usher> does Ubuntu support RAID? with winXP I have to have RAID drivers on a floppy disk and I don't have any :(    do I need them for Linux too ?
[11:23] <DigitalNinja> Where can I find the "codec wizards" for Feisty Fawn?
[11:23] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, #ubuntu+!
[11:23] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, #ubuntu+1 sorry
[11:23] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: thanks
[11:24] <kevin> HELLO
[11:24] <Usher> kevin: Hi
[11:24] <kevin> anyone know what i need to setup bluetooth
[11:24] <[doctor] > hi, can anybody say me last kernel version in Ubuntu-7.04?
[11:24] <kevin> i got the fileshareing program from synaptic, but theres no configuration for it
[11:25] <Droce> I have a quick, and quite probably stupid question, I'm currently installing (running this off the disk) and it says "No root file system" I thought this was "/" which I have, anyone know what I did wrong?
[11:25] <PriceChild> [doctor]  #ubuntu+!
[11:25] <PriceChild> [doctor]  #ubuntu+1 sorry
[11:25] <kevin> :d
[11:25] <Usher> ***kevin: huh?
[11:25] <kevin> i got the fileshareing program from synaptic, but theres no configuration for it
[11:25] <PriceChild> kevin, you on feisty?
[11:25] <Usher> click on System>About GNOME
[11:26] <kevin> umm, not sure
[11:26] <kevin> how do i tell?
[11:26] <paradroid> Droce: Are you in the middle of the installation process?
[11:26] <PriceChild> kevin, nevermind, what filesharing program?
[11:26] <Usher> kevin: click on System>About Ubuntu
[11:26] <Droce> yes paradroid, I just ran GAIN off the disk
[11:26] <frozenhan1> Hello
[11:26] <kevin> PriceChild,  I have a bluetooth device , i need to set up
[11:26] <paradroid> Droce: Which version are you installing? 6.10/7.04?
[11:27] <Droce> 6.04
[11:27] <paradroid> Droce: And what installer are you using? WIth GUI or text-based?
[11:27] <frozenhan1> Is here anyone german?
[11:27] <PriceChild> Droce, use you're on 6.04?
[11:27] <Droce> GUI
[11:27] <Droce> yes pricechild
[11:27] <frozenhan1> If yes, Query please.
[11:27] <PriceChild> Droce, sure you're on 6.04?
[11:27] <Droce> that's the one I clicked, yes
[11:27] <linxeh> you mean 6.06
[11:27] <Droce> oh, sorry
[11:28] <Droce> I have a screenshot of the problem
[11:28] <Droce> http://img61.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotpf0.png
[11:28] <kevin> Usher,  im on edgy 6.10
[11:28] <waseem> hi i need some help installing ubuntu edgy
[11:28] <s25_> hey all, i just install linux-current the kernel as i reckon that should have smp support so my dual core will work (did some googling and that was what was suggested) How do I make it boot said kernel? Thanks
[11:29] <fghj> !ati
[11:29] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:29] <waseem> im manually partitioning the hard drive right now and i plan on installing windows later one
[11:29] <waseem> on
[11:29] <pike_> s25_: the generic kernel has smp support
[11:29] <frozenhan1> Can anyone help me with the formating of the hardrivedisks?
[11:29] <Usher> frozenhan1: I'll try, whats up?
[11:29] <kevin> well
[11:30] <kevin> no one here uses bluetooth?
[11:30] <s25_> pike_, Yes well after upgrading the system my dual core is no longer recognised (strange as this was not the result of doing this before)
[11:30] <frozenhan1> I'm trying to format the disks manually. And i am not shure if is's right.
[11:30] <Usher> kevin: bluetooth for what, I use it on my phone
[11:30] <paradroid> Does / need a primary partition and won't accept a logical one?
[11:30] <elvirolo> when i plug my usb drive in, it seems to be detected (all the right stuff appears in dmesg) but it is not mounted automatically
[11:30] <PriceChild> paradroid, /boot needs primary
[11:30] <kevin> Usher, to transfer files from my pc to my phone
[11:30] <gOLdenHaWK3D> hi all.
[11:30] <paradroid> PriceChild: Thank you. I will direct that answer to Droce ;)
[11:30] <Usher> frozenhan1: Are you dual booting?
[11:31] <OuZo> how can i install 32bit debs on a 64bit pc? thanks
[11:31] <Droce> ohh, I see, it's logical atm
[11:31] <Usher> kevin: Oh, I use a USB adapter for my phone for that sort of thing
[11:31] <paradroid> Droce: Did you get PriceChild's hint? Obviously the root file system needs a primary partition and won't be satisfied with a logical one.
[11:31] <kevin> Usher, i have a usb bluetooth device and a motorola razor
[11:31] <Usher> kevin: and I don't think my PC has bluetooth
[11:31] <pike_> s25_: id ls /boot  and if you have old kernel there gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and point it to a different kernel
[11:31] <frozenhan1> Yes, Win XP is on the first Partition. On the second is Data. I'f got a third and want to install it on this.
[11:31] <Administrator> Hi, i'm wondering if it's possible to install Ubuntu, or Debian on a system running windows. I mean, installing on a live windows system. I have a panasonic toughbook for work, but no docking station :-(
[11:31] <kevin> i just have the usb wireless adapter
[11:32] <kevin> Usher, ok thanks anyway
[11:32] <pike_> s25_: what i mean to say is ubuntu should have a number of kernel versions for you to try. apt-cache search linux-image
[11:32] <Droce> one other quick question, do I set up GRUB after I install linux?
[11:32] <s25_> thanks
[11:32] <Usher> frozenhan1: what version of ubuntu are you installing
[11:32] <PriceChild> Droce, the installer does that
[11:33] <Droce> thank you PC
[11:33] <GrueTamer> when i try to launch games in ubuntu, they crash the entire system 90% of the time.  my video drivers are updated as far as i can tell, but feel free to tell me im wrong.  does anybody have any ideas what to do?
[11:33] <Usher> frozenhan1: I think Feisty has a friendlier setup for managing the partitions and from WinXP than previous versions
[11:33] <Landon> Hey all, I can't seem to get my esd to stop running. I'll kill it, and then 1 minute later it'll be running again, and I can't figure out which program it is that is causing the problem. I need to kill it so I can run audacity. If anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it
[11:34] <Usher> esd?
[11:34] <frozenhan1> 7.03? Im not sure... 7.04
[11:34] <Landon> esd, something to do with sound
[11:34] <Droce> do I have to turn off GAIN while I install?
[11:34] <Usher> does 7.04 not walk you through everything step by step pretty simple? I thought they had improved it quite a bit
[11:34] <PriceChild> frozenhan1, Usher feisty in #ubuntu+1 please
[11:35] <pike_> GrueTamer: what do you mean by whole system? just X or what?
[11:35] <frozenhan1> Pardon?
[11:35] <PriceChild> frozenhan1, support for feisty is in #ubuntu+1
[11:35] <Usher> frozenhan1: He's saying to join the room #ubuntu+1
[11:35] <GrueTamer> pike_: i think its just X, but theres no way for me to do anything but reboot
[11:36] <Landon> How do you keep ESD killed?
[11:36] <pike_> GrueTamer: id check the logs i guess.. is your system up to date?
[11:36] <ikonia> Landon: stop the service in the init script
[11:36] <GrueTamer> yes it is
[11:36] <s25_> pike_,  How does this look to you? title		linux-image-686
[11:36] <s25_> root		(hd0,6)
[11:36] <s25_> kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-linux-image-686 root=/dev/sda7 ro
[11:36] <s25_> initrd		/boot/initrd.img-linux-image-686
[11:36] <s25_> savedefault
[11:36] <s25_> boot
[11:36] <Landon> ikonia: Where?
[11:36] <ikonia> s25_:  fine
[11:36] <GrueTamer> ill check the logs now
[11:36] <Priest-of-Psi> omg why dont I have /dev/video0
[11:36] <ikonia> Landon: in the init script
[11:37] <Landon> ikonia: I got that part :P Where is that?
[11:37] <ikonia> Landon: /etc/init.d
[11:37] <UnixTitan> Hi I have a question.. Ubuntu 6.10 standard gnome setup with the Human theme.. where are the images that the battery is using?

[11:37] <methodx> hello
[11:38] <Vorian> duelboot, yep :)
[11:38] <geraldhornsby> uhhhhhrghhhhhh -.-
[11:38] <lynucs> is there anyway to remove synaptics driver over synaptic without removing xorg??
[11:38] <UnixTitan> and the ones in /usr/share/icons/hicolor aren't the same
[11:38] <geraldhornsby> I cant seem to fix this damn thing
[11:38] <duelboot> heHATEme was the best name on the jersey, Vorian...so stupid, but yet so good, he actually played in the NFL I think
[11:38] <geraldhornsby> is there any way to fix api mismatch quickly with nvidia drivers?
[11:39] <geraldhornsby> or can anyone help me with my xserver stopping the GUI starting
[11:39] <PriceChild> geraldhornsby, install them properly
[11:39] <geraldhornsby> i need some help...it may take a while
[11:39] <duelboot> PriceChild, thx for the non advice
[11:39] <geraldhornsby> oh I have. its kaneda btw, me again
[11:39] <fghj> !ati
[11:39] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:39] <darx> whats the command to run the default bt client?
[11:39] <geraldhornsby> its an api mismatch
[11:39] <Vorian> duelboot, :)
[11:40] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: just ask the question
[11:40] <PriceChild> gene_, how did you install them?
[11:40] <PriceChild> argh
[11:40] <PriceChild> geraldhornsby, how did you install it?
[11:40] <geraldhornsby> i have installed, reinstalled the nvidia-gtx thing
[11:40] <Sherlockian> where would i configure my default essid, my wireless card connects to wrong ap at boot?
[11:40] <Nazo029A> have you tried envy?
[11:40] <Nazo029A> automated i hear
[11:40] <ikonia> gtx thing - why can people not take the time to report things properly
[11:40] <geraldhornsby> a forum reccomended i used an auto update
[11:40] <cafuego_> !envy
[11:40] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. This software is NOT supported by ubuntu and you will not receive aid for it here. More at http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html See !nvidia and !nvidia9
[11:40] <jrib> darx: gnome-btdownload
[11:40] <geraldhornsby> i think it was that bloody envy thing
[11:40] <frojnd> hello. I have problem with findinf ftp server that's insatlled. Any ideas how can I check which ftp server is installed. I just know that the name incluedes ftp and first latter is A as advanced..
[11:40] <geraldhornsby> yes that was it!
[11:40] <duelboot> Sherlockian, you can do it in the gui or command line...
[11:41] <Sherlockian> or where would i put a script to excute commands at boot???
[11:41] <vassely> #ubuntu-lb
[11:41] <darx> jrib: thanks
[11:41] <Sherlockian> commandline
[11:41] <lynucs> !synaptics
[11:41] <ubotu> For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[11:41] <Sherlockian> i have no X
[11:41] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: if you know its "bloody" envy - why did you use the bad product
[11:41] <Sherlockian> duelboot: i have no X
[11:41] <geraldhornsby> it made my system bugger up with an api mismatch
[11:41] <geraldhornsby> i didnt know til it made it not work ^^
[11:41] <duelboot> Sherlockian, setup your /etc/network/interface with the proper info
[11:41] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: why did you not use the driver in the repo - as instructed on the ubuntu forums official howto
[11:41] <geraldhornsby> im a noob.
[11:42] <Sherlockian> duelboot: i can put wireless infomation in there - such as essid?
[11:42] <duelboot> Sherlockian, are you registered?
[11:42] <duelboot> yes
[11:42] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: so why did you not use the ubuntu howto rather than some random website if your a "noob"
[11:42] <Sherlockian> in forums
[11:42] <Sherlockian> not here
[11:42] <Megaqwerty> Will making a disk image make an exact copy of the drive (like cluster for cluster) ?
[11:42] <geraldhornsby> i had some installed but there was some conflict with nvidia settings and nvidia gtx
[11:42] <duelboot> check private Sherlockian, we'll discuss there
[11:42] <clouder`grr> How would I know if I need to reboot or not after doing $ apt-get upgrade ?
[11:42] <geraldhornsby> because i googled the problem and that said it would fix my problem
[11:42] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: thats explained in the ububntu howto
[11:42] <duelboot> register Sherlockian  and we'll take it private
[11:42] <Sherlockian> and i register where??
[11:42] <ikonia> I just don't get why people don't use the rich ubuntu resources and listen to stupid 3rd party unofficial sites
[11:42] <geraldhornsby> alright alright so i shouldnt have done it
[11:42] <geraldhornsby> but i need to fix it =] 
[11:42] <Sherlockian> duelboot: under freenode?
[11:42] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: re-install ubuntu
[11:43] <PriceChild> ikonia, ?
[11:43] <duelboot> nevermind..hold one and I'll get it for you
[11:43] <IgorSobreira> i have a video .mpg...but i doens't play the song...just the image...anybody knows? i use totem...
[11:43] <Sherlockian> duelboot:  ok
[11:43] <ikonia> PriceChild: "I found a howto on this website" "I used auto tools" "I did this" - did you check the ubuntu website/howto/wiki/forum "no I just found this extenral site"
[11:43] <cafuego_> clouder`grr: if you did not get 1) a new kernel  2) a new libc6 or  3) a new dbus version - you don't need to reboot.
[11:43] <duelboot> Sherlockian, using encryption?
[11:43] <PriceChild> ikonia, reinstalling is kinda drastic...
[11:44] <Sherlockian> duelboot: no
[11:44] <duelboot> okay
[11:44] <clouder`grr> cafuego: thanks :D
[11:44] <duelboot> hold one
[11:44] <ikonia> PriceChild: agreed, bit it will get him back to a plain statee thats "known" rather than what a 3rd party site has broke
[11:44] <cafuego_> clouder`grr: And even if you did, a reboot isn't requiored until you think you want to *use* these new versions ;-)
[11:44] <CDC171> good evening
[11:44] <ikonia> PriceChild: I don't feel like debugging a 3rd parties "how to" to put him normal, if he's not got the dirvers installed yet, should be a quick re-install
[11:44] <Sherlockian> duelboot: the ubuntu community is so great....check this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo
[11:45] <Usher> is there such thing as RAID 0 in linux?
[11:45] <amorphous_> can anyone tell me why I cant put new apps in my startup list (sustem>preferences>session>startup programmes)
[11:45] <Sherlockian> duelboot:  about half way down
[11:45] <ikonia> Usher: yes
[11:45] <[A] GreSor> Can i have KDE on ubuntu ?
[11:45] <ikonia> [A] GreSor: yes
[11:45] <Sherlockian> duelboot: my forums queston just got answerd
[11:45] <Usher> ikonia: How do I go about setting that up ?
[11:45] <ikonia> Usher: use mdadm
[11:45] <Nazo029A> yes sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:45] <[A] GreSor> how, and is it recomendet ?
[11:45] <Nazo029A> for kde
[11:45] <amorphous_> they just dissapear when i close the box :/
[11:45] <Nazo029A> &packages
[11:45] <Usher> ikonia: I've never heard of that, whats that
[11:45] <duelboot> Sherlockian, add the following to your /etc/network/interfaces...under your iface add....wireless-essid <your-essid>
[11:45] <ikonia> Usher: its a command
[11:45] <jrib> !kde > [A] GreSor    ([A] GreSor, see the private message from ubotu)
[11:46] <Usher> ikonia: Do it during installation or after?
[11:46] <jrib> [A] GreSor: yes, it's perfectly fine, you can have as many wm's as you want.  You just select it when you login by pressing the "options" button in the corner
[11:46] <Sherlockian> duelboot: thank you for your help, this must be the info i am looking for
[11:46] <ikonia> Usher: advanced installation - the installer will do it for you, set it up afterwards, you have to do it
[11:47] <looner> can any help me with raid 1
[11:47] <duelboot> Sherlockian, you're quite welcome
[11:47] <ikonia> looner: whats up
[11:47] <Usher> ikonia: How do I do that advanced installation? Alternate CD?
[11:47] <mwtb> My Fedora Core server install has died, so I've got an opportunity to refit with Ubuntu to match my laptop. The server acts as my personal webserver (Apache, running Wordpress, RoR and Django app installs), mailserver (postfix) and as my MythTV server. I also use the box to test my own web-dev work. My question is whether I should use the server edition or the desktop edition.
[11:47] <[A] GreSor> Jrabbit, thanks :)
[11:47] <Sherlockian> duelboot: the ubuntu community is really amazing - just to let everyone knw =)
[11:47] <ikonia> Usher: think its the server cd only
[11:47] <Usher> ah damn
[11:48] <Jrabbit> [A] GreSor: YW
[11:48] <JosefK> mwtb, for those needs, only the server
[11:48] <flodine> how much longer before feisty is released?
[11:48] <duelboot> Sherlockian, it's simply the best out there...there is none better
[11:48] <julian1223> I ask here because the people in +1 appear to be asleep ;), https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/95411 if Mike is saying a later build fixes it, where do I go for such a build?
[11:48] <jrib> mwtb: server, why are you considering desktop for that out of curiousity?
[11:48] <ikonia> julian1223: this is not fesity support - thats in #ubuntu+1
[11:48] <mwtb> JosefK: Thanks. jrib: I just wasn't sure about the mythtv stuff.
[11:48] <looner> ikonia i want to recover raid one
[11:49] <snama> hey whats up?
[11:49] <ikonia> looner: ok - so whats the problem, and what have you done so far
[11:49] <julian1223> I know, I've been in there for 25 minutes
[11:49] <jrib> mwtb: ah well, the same repositories are used, the initial setup is just different
[11:49] <ikonia> julian1223: great, wait for a response
[11:49] <snama> iam just curious, whats the age of an average desktop linux user?
[11:49] <looner> one of the hard drives had crashed bad sector
[11:49] <Usher> 22 here
[11:49] <ikonia> looner: ok
[11:49] <snama> average age*
[11:49] <looner> and we need to change it
[11:50] <looner> luckly we have raid one
[11:50] <ikonia> snama: please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:50] <ikonia> looner: ok
[11:50] <looner> how can we recover
[11:50] <snama> ok
[11:50] <ikonia> looner: take the hard disk out, put the new one in and resync
[11:50] <looner> can it work
[11:50] <Desp_> Package proftpd-common has no installation candidate
[11:50] <ikonia> looner: totally, I do it all the time
[11:50] <mwtb> jrib: Okay, if that's the case then server it is. A-downloading I go. Thanks.
[11:50] <amorphous_> anyone know why anything i put in system>preferences>session>startup programmes dissapears from the list???
[11:50] <looner> give me alink
[11:50] <ikonia> looner: a link to what ?
[11:51] <looner> how to resync it
[11:51] <Desp_> is there other way i can install this pakage with ?
[11:51] <muszek> hi... which name contains a username?  My sister messed up networking stuff and now a prompt at the console looks like this: username@(none)
[11:51] <looner> do u mean rsync
[11:51] <ikonia> looner: just man mdadm
[11:51] <ikonia> looner: no

[11:52] <BarronVon> does anyone else think that the bittorrent app that comes stock with ubuntu sucks?  I mean where is the rest of the controls?
[11:52] <PriceChild> jeanre, I don't remember talking with you,,,
[11:53] <ikonia> BarronVon: its fine
[11:53] <jrib> BarronVon: install the one you prefer.  It's a gnome app, so its intent is to be simple and straightforward
[11:53] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: heh
[11:54] <BarronVon> ikonia: it seems slow too
[11:54] <PriceChild> ah :(
[11:54] <BarronVon> ikonia: download rates I mean
[11:54] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: I am going to kick this thing into hell
[11:54] <Priest-of-Psi> maybe satan can use it
[11:54] <agresor> a
[11:54] <BarronVon> jrib: can you suggest a good bittorrent app for gnome?
[11:54] <ikonia> BarronVon: doubtful anything to do with the client
