[12:17] <n-iCe> bruenig,  english isn't my languague
[12:17] <n-iCe> rickcr,  what?!
[12:17] <bruenig> rickcr, if you want to start him on that, you are responsible for the two hours of support after he begins that
[12:17] <nazo029A> or just use add/remove if its really bugin u, its in there ready to be clicked ;)
[12:17] <rickcr> it's not that bad:)
[12:17] <jrib> dm: yeah, doesn't sound like a user-specific problem but I would start with that anyway to rule it out.  Create a new temp user
[12:17] <n-iCe> jrib,  which one is the lastest version ?
[12:18] <rickcr> if he wants easy why is he even worrying about java6?
[12:18] <rickcr> just use java 5 from the manager
[12:18] <PriceChild> n-iCe, the guide is very good... please follow it.
[12:18] <dm> jrib how?
[12:18] <bruenig> n-iCe, what other language...

[12:18] <dm> jrib im at a terminal with CNRTL f2, but whats the command
[12:18] <jrib> dm: sudo adduser testuser
[12:18] <rickcr> guess i'm confused what he wants
[12:18] <Usher> Man.. that guy wanting help with his wireless internet must have been the most impatient person to have ever tried using Ubuntu.. he waited for help for 1 whole minute and then gave up, haha
[12:18] <jrib> n-iCe: 6 is the latest version
[12:18] <amorphous_> jrib: thank you. gotta go now see if it works :D
[12:19] <rickcr> if he's not developing he'll be fine with 5.

[12:31] <bullgard4> derrin: Sorrry that you did not get any help here. I personally cannot give you any advice about USRobotics USB phone.
[12:31] <Pollywog> The way I have been doing it is a hassle and is probably the wrong way

[12:31] <nazo029A> @Pollywog My downstairs windows box has a hpphotosmartc31000 on it shared over the network, you could then let ubuntu use a printer via the provided guis
[12:31] <jrib> dm: cat ~/.xsession-errors | netcat jrib.dyndns.org 1234
[12:32] <jrib> |thunder: the things you add to startup end up in ~/.config/autostart/
[12:32] <dm> ah
[12:32] <dm> gotcha
[12:32] <dm> moved all that out, now im trying again
[12:32] <Pollywog> nazo029A: In my case the printer (HP PSC 2110 ) is connected to the Ubuntu machine
[12:32] <|thunder> jrib: thakns alot.
[12:32] <dm> jrib that workd,  must be my beryl
[12:33] <Pollywog> I could not set up the driver on the windows host unless I used one for a different printer that was not USB
[12:33] <nazo029A> @Pollywog: I havent tried that approach yet, I was doing this today so im still a little new to it myself im afraid
[12:33] <ompaul> blprice, not a usual thing, cos mission critical should be tested first, however you might apt-get remove --package NameOfPackage and then cd /var/cache/apt/archives and there in dpkg -i previousVersionNumberofPakage_full_name
[12:33] <Pollywog> maybe I have to use a parallel printer next time

[12:42] <AmaroqWolf> Pollywog: Yes, but it says it's busy.
[12:43] <vox754> Pollywog, blprice, I think apt keeps logs on /var/logs or something
[12:43] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: I do not know how to do that on WINE, but Cedega can do multi CD installs
[12:43] <blprice> thanks looking
[12:43] <soothsay> MiniJames: Yes I will buy one soon. However, I'd like to try it now
[12:43] <soothsay> MiniJames: It should be possible to bridge the wireless connection
[12:43] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: can you copy the disks contents to the hd and install from that?
[12:44] <Pollywog> that sometimes works

If I turn Xinerama on, the clicking all works as expected, but maximising a window has an invisible edge that stops it from using the whole screen.

[12:47] <AmaroqWolf> Pollywog: loopback device?
[12:47] <jrib> downfallat111: (as you would do normally anyway to keep up to date with updates)
[12:47] <Yggdrasil> how can i foce ntp to update ?
[12:47] <downfallat111> alright, sounds good
[12:47] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: yes I don't recall the specifics but I did it once
[12:48] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: it is easier to copy the CD's to the hd though
[12:48] <owh> AmaroqWolf: What are you trying to do?
[12:48] <Pollywog> owh: a multi CD install on WINE
[12:48] <blprice> the log in /var/log/dpkg.log seems to contain all the update information
[12:48] <owh> From original CD
[12:48] <AmaroqWolf> owh: Trying to install Aliens vs Predetor 2 via wine, which has 2 cds.
[12:49] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: Cedega can do that, it allows you do umount the first cd and continue installing on a second
[12:49] <owh> I suspect that it depends on the installer. You could likely create an ISO of the second CD and mount that, but only if the Installer sees it.
[12:50] <AmaroqWolf> Pollywog: Cedega isn't free.
[12:50] <vvk-> hi, does anyone have a Joost invitation left?
[12:50] <owh> Just running the Installer and ejecting the CD doesn't work?
[12:50] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: I thought only the prepackaged version was not free
[12:50] <Yggdrasil> how can i update my system clock thru the internet?
[12:50] <AmaroqWolf> owh: I can't eject the CD, not even with sudo. It says the device is busy
[12:50] <AmaroqWolf> Pollywog: There's a free cedega?
[12:50] <owh> AmaroqWolf: How did you launch the Installer?
[12:51] <dm> jrib how do i stop gdm, whats the command?
[12:51] <AmaroqWolf> owh: through the terminal under wine
[12:51] <jrib> dm: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[12:51] <AmaroqWolf> wait...
[12:51] <synack> Hey everyone, how do i install things in ubuntu, where are the /ports or the apt-get?
[12:51] <Ace2016> hi all
[12:51] <owh> AmaroqWolf: Yes, but what command?
[12:51] <Pollywog> it is sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:51] <Ace2016> anyone know how to get shred to delete files as well as go into the dirs?
[12:51] <ravi_master> ok, installing Ubuntu on an old Inspiron 1100, any suggestions, I get a small screen 640x480, I know what ubuntuforums says but I wanted a second opinion
[12:51] <Ace2016> like using cp -r on something
[12:51] <synack> And is apt-get the "prefered way?"
[12:51] <AmaroqWolf> I cd'ed into the drive and then did wine setup.exe. Haha! That might be the problem.
[12:51] <owh> Pollywog: Yes, the other solution shown by jrib is also correct.
[12:52] <AmaroqWolf> The Terminal was still working in the cd's directory
[12:52] <owh> synack: You can use any of the following: apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, all do the same.
[12:52] <owh> AmaroqWolf: That's why I was asking :)
[12:53] <synack> owh, anyway to scan for a specific package like openbsd ports has?
[12:53] <synack> like say i need, postfix
[12:53] <owh> synack: apt-get search
[12:53] <bruenig> synack, apt-cache search postfix
[12:53] <owh> Uh
[12:53] <owh> apt-cache search
[12:53] <synack> thx
[12:53] <neil__> !packages
[12:53] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[12:53] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: that won't work either because it is busy
[12:53] <synack> "Invalid operation search"
[12:54] <AmaroqWolf> oh
[12:54] <owh> synack: apt-cache, not apt-get, my mistake.
[12:54] <bruenig> synack, check the command, you probably typed it poorly
[12:54] <yurimxpxman> is there any way to convert a wav/flac to WMA in linux?
[12:54] <bruenig> oh he said apt-get
[12:54] <synack> owh - cool
[12:54] <owh> Yeah
[12:54] <AmaroqWolf> How do I do it then?
[12:54] <vox754> synack, "aptitude search <package>"   and   "aptitude show <package>"
[12:54] <owh> AmaroqWolf: Copy the installer to your /tmp directory, try again.
[12:54] <neil__> he could just use synaptic and hit search if not
[12:55] <bruenig> apt-cache search <package> and apt-cache search <package>
[12:55] <AmaroqWolf> owh: okay
[12:55] <man_id_unknown> Where do I need to place a DLL I created to be able to use it with Ajunta?
[12:55] <owh> So, I'm guessing no-one here has any experience with Xinerama then :)
[12:55] <synack> a bunch of stuff came back, hrm, i guess ill need to learn to use apt get
[12:55] <synack> i like the ports soooo much :(
[12:56] <man_id_unknown> Where do I need to place a DLL I created to be able to use it with Ajunta?
[12:56] <bruenig> synack, what are you looking for specifically
[12:56] <owh> synack: apt-cache search {thing}|sort|less
[12:56] <synack> postfix, i want to make unbuntu into an internal mail server
[12:56] <bruenig> !info postfix
[12:56] <ubotu> postfix: A high-performance mail transport agent. In component main, is optional. Version 2.3.3-1 (edgy), package size 1041 kB, installed size 2436 kB
[12:56] <synack> sp i just want the postfix MTA
[12:56] <bruenig> synack, sudo apt-get install postfix
[12:56] <man_id_unknown> Where do I need to place a DLL I created to be able to use it with Ajunta?
[12:57] <bruenig> !repeat | man_id_unknown
[12:57] <bruenig> !repeat > man_id_unknown
[12:57] <bruenig> ubotu, tell man_id_unknown about repeat
[12:57] <ubotu> man_id_unknown: 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
[12:57] <owh> man_id_unknown: We don't know, stop repeating yourself.
[12:57] <AmaroqWolf> owh: I got an error box. "The InstallShield Engine (iKernel.exe) could not be installed. File not found."
[12:57] <man_id_unknown> OWH: So then just say you don't know. How else would I know?
[12:57] <synack> ok its coming down
[12:57] <synack> in a VM on this machine btw lol
[12:57] <bruenig> man_id_unknown, you want 1021 people to say they don't know?
[12:58] <bruenig> man_id_unknown, rule of thumb, no answer = don't know
[12:58] <owh> AmaroqWolf: Perhaps your /tmp directory isn't visible to wine? Put it somewhere where wine can see it.
[12:58] <man_id_unknown> Bruening: Rule of thumb, that rule of thumb doesn't apply to chats.
[12:58] <AmaroqWolf> owh: maybe wine has a tmp directory. xD I did it in my ubuntu's /tmp
[12:58] <synack> im assuming "local only" will get me all geared up for a local postfix install here, the purpose of this is to have my firewall send its logs to an internal email
[12:58] <bruenig> man_id_unknown, the channel would be flooded beyond use if everyone responded when they didn't know and that rule of thumb applies almost exclusively to chats
[12:59] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: look up something called supermount
[12:59] <owh> man_id_unknown: I do not know where you would put a DLL on a Linux machine to run an application I've never heard of. I would try to find the application package, the home page, installation documentation.
[12:59] <vox754> !Anjuta
[12:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anjuta - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:59] <bruenig> where else would it apply, it certainly wouldn't apply in normal human exchanges, that would be kind of awkward to ask someone something and have them not respond
[01:00] <dan20> I can't get DVDs to play in VLC (or anything else).
[01:00] <owh> AmaroqWolf: Ok, you need to understand something. While you're running wine, you're running a programme that is pretending to be a computer inside your computer. It has access to specific places, as defined in the configuration. Wine access maps over the top of the stuff you're already using, which makes it somewhat confusing. Likely you have set a C: drive in wine. Copy the installer into that.
[01:00] <bruenig> !dvd | dan20
[01:00] <ubotu> dan20: 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
[01:00] <dan20> Thanks
[01:01] <owh> bruenig: The | for the bot doesn't seem to be working :)
[01:01] <man_id_unknown> How do I switch to 'root' user?
[01:01] <vox754> !root
[01:01] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:01] <bruenig> !sudo | man_id_unknown there is no root user
[01:01] <ubotu> man_id_unknown there is no root user: please see above
[01:01] <owh> man_id_unknown: Under Ubuntu you normally don't.
[01:01] <lix> Hi. I used to do tunneling with vpnc in dapper drake. In feisty fawn there is networkmanager-vpnc and networkmanager-openvpn. What should I use that works better? any suggestions?
[01:01] <nazo029A> Does anybody know of any text editors similar to notepad++ in windows? With syntax highlighting and tabs? It's be used for php/html editing
[01:01] <kuma_> nazo029A: notepad++ is windows compatible
[01:02] <BarronVon> (I just installed the 6.10 version) I am trying to download multiple torrents with the bittorrent proggy that comes stock with the install and it wont let me download more than one at a time, it says "couldn't listen 98 address already in use? any idears?
[01:02] <bruenig> nazo029A, I know gedit has syntax highlighting, not tabs though
[01:02] <lix> nazo029A: gPHPEdit or Quantaplus
[01:02] <man_id_unknown> Owh: In which case, how do I create an install.sh file?
[01:02] <owh> nazo029A: Until recently I used nedit, but it's a little broken. I now use gphpedit which is a little less broken.
[01:02] <nazo029A> Thanks, trying gPHPediy first
[01:02] <blprice> eh I seem to have really fubared - apt-get remove --package xserver-xorg-core gave me errors so I did apt-get remove xserver-xosrg-core   that removed way too much, how to fix??
[01:02] <Pollywog> AmaroqWolf: supermount  do a google Linux search for it
[01:02] <bruenig> blprice, why would you be doing any of that
[01:02] <owh> man_id_unknown: You are obviously working from some instructions. Where are those?
[01:03] <blprice> because todays update broke my apps
[01:03] <owh> blprice: apt-get install xserver-xorg-core
[01:03] <man_id_unknown> Owh: Actually, I created a DLL with FreeBASIC and would like to use it with Ajunta.
[01:03] <Pollywog> which ones broke?
[01:03] <man_id_unknown> Owh: The only way I can think of is installing the DLL, somehow.
[01:03] <bruenig> blprice, do you know everything you lost?
[01:03] <blprice> owh: thanks but that gives me errors
[01:03] <owh> blprice: Be specific.
[01:04] <bruenig> blprice, that was probably a poor move, I would say. You are probably looking at a situation where fresh install will be the best choice
[01:04] <bruenig> or I should say "easiest"
[01:04] <blprice> yeah a fresh install of windows
[01:04] <owh> man_id_unknown: Uhm. I'm not sure I follow. I do not know of a way to make a DLL from an interpreted language. DLL's are not normally used in Linux.
[01:05] <gratuit> I am using idesk, and each time that I click on an icon, it disappears, has anyone else had this problem?
[01:05] <man_id_unknown> Owh: No, Sir. FreeBASIC is a BASIC to C (GCC/MingW) translator.
[01:05] <owh> man_id_unknown: Ok, so it generates DLL's?
[01:05] <man_id_unknown> owh: Yes, Sir.
[01:06] <owh> man_id_unknown: Or does it generate .so's?
[01:06] <wht1> !java
[01:06] <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
[01:06] <man_id_unknown> owh: Ahhh...good point. It generates dlls for WIndows, and .so's for Linux.
[01:06] <Arrick> hi all
[01:06] <owh> man_id_unknown: And I'm guessing that you're in #ubuntu because you're running Linux :)
[01:06] <downfallat111> does anyone know how to access/mount a novell directory?
[01:06] <Arrick> can someone help me out and walk me through seetting up mod_rewrite on the ubuntu 6.06.1 Server LAMP install?
[01:07] <man_id_unknown> owh: Indeed, Sir.
[01:07] <bruenig> downfallat111, a directory?
[01:07] <dan20> Once I get the CSS stuff installed for dvd playback, do I point VLC to /dev/cdrom0 or where it's mounted (/media/dvd)
[01:07] <owh> Arrick: There are a squillion HOWTO's on the subject.
[01:07] <Usher> anyone know how to setup RAID 0 on Ubuntu Linux?
[01:07] <nazo029A> @dan20 either worked for me
[01:07] <bruenig> dan20, open vlc, file>open disc and then select the device name and go
[01:07] <dan20> okay, so it goes by device, not where it's mounted?
[01:08] <bruenig> dan20, yeah, you could probably do both, but I know the open disc and device works
[01:08] <owh> downfallat111: I'm guessing that there's a client for that, but I don't know.
[01:08] <downfallat111> yep, there is a novell netware server at school and I have tried to access my directory but can't
[01:08] <mina_linux_Tux> hey i'm running ubuntu in a no x , is there a way to set my eth0 to DHCP from the command line ?
[01:08] <Arrick> owh, yeah, and I've read about 50 of them including the one that is directly related to the item I am trying to enable and I cant follow it. http://drupal.org/node/15365
[01:08] <dan20> thanks :)
[01:08] <wht1> running backported updates doesn't pose any risks, does it?
[01:08] <Arrick> but thanks for being more subtle about RTFM than others
[01:08] <downfallat111> there is an old client that hasn't been updated since 2002
[01:08] <bruenig> wht1, shouldn't
[01:09] <downfallat111> and i havn't been able to get it to work
[01:09] <Usher> what does backport mean?
[01:09] <owh> Arrick: Rather than solve the whole problem in one hit, try to do it in baby steps. Use the initial example and prove to yourself that it works, then do the next step.
[01:09] <mina_linux_Tux> ppl any comment
[01:09] <nikin_> If i write a program what i find usefull to include into Ubuntu what way should i go, to get it on the main repos... and is ther anywhere a DOC about what rules are there for packages to be included in Ubuntu?
[01:09] <Arrick> what init example
[01:09] <Jumbola>  if i install fiesty in my pc now its beta version.. when fiesty launch for full version.. so can i upgrade my beta to full?
[01:09] <owh> Arrick: It is possible that you cannot get to the first step, indicating that something needs to be configured.
[01:09] <bruenig> Usher, backports are packages being used in the newer ubuntu release that are being backported to the current or older release
[01:09] <bruenig> !backports
[01:09] <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
[01:09] <kuma_> hi, i'm having problems with the glibc library, i'm getting a "not found" error even tough i've installed build_essential. Any ideas?
[01:09] <lix> mina_linux_Tux: sudo dhclient3 eth0
[01:10] <Usher> bruenig: so it's just a way to use older software?
[01:10] <bruenig> kuma_, what is the exact error
[01:10] <mina_linux_Tux> lix: from the command line ?
[01:10] <nazo029A> @Jumbola yes, its usually something like a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade fro mlaunch day
[01:10] <bruenig> Usher, not it is a way to use newer software
[01:10] <kuma_> bruenig: /home/kuma/dbgl055/dosbox-0.70/dosbox: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /home/kuma/dbgl055/dosbox-0.70/dosbox)
[01:10] <jrib> nikin_: you'll want to package it or find someone willing to package it.  Anything with a free license can go to universe, if it's nonfree then it can go to multiverse
[01:10] <jrib> !motu > nikin_    (nikin_, see the private message from ubotu)
[01:10] <owh> downfallat111: What's the client called?
[01:11] <Usher> bruenig: I guess when I think 'Back' port I think going backwards towards older software :(
[01:11] <jrib> !packaging > nikin_    (nikin_, see the private message from ubotu)
[01:11] <owh> Usher: No, always forwards :)
[01:11] <bruenig> Usher, it is being ported, backwards to the older release
[01:11] <Jumbola> nazo029A: using apt-get dist-upgrade is just downloaded some packages or download whole fiesty?
[01:12] <nikin_> jrib: thank you
[01:12] <dabaR> porting a new version of software to an older distribution. backporting.
[01:12] <downfallat111> owh, novel, with one l
[01:12] <Usher> anybody have a magic wand that can make my 2 Seagate SATA HDDs work in Linux with RAID 0, like I had them setup in WinXP for Gaming ?
[01:12] <owh> downfallat111: I did a google for "linux netware mount"
[01:12] <owh> downfallat111: Lots of stuff there.
[01:12] <nazo029A> @Jumbola well the last upgrade i did involved switching everything "dapper" to "edgy" in my /etc/apt/sources.list - the dist-upgrade that gave me edgy
[01:13] <Usher> OOOH wait.. so backporting lets the people who use the older version of Ubuntu use the new versions of software that are in the newer versions of Ubuntu ?
[01:13] <bruenig> Usher, right
[01:13] <Jumbola> nazo029A: you are talking about whole fiesty download i think.
[01:13] <downfallat111> alright i'll see what i can find, but i havn't been successful with that before
[01:13] <Usher> Why don't those knuckleheads just upgrade their distro
[01:14] <nazo029A> @Jumbola Yeah that would download whole fiesty
[01:14] <BarronVon> (I just installed the 6.10 version) I am trying to download multiple torrents with the bittorrent proggy that comes stock with the install and it wont let me download more than one at a time, it says "couldn't listen 98 address already in use? any idears?
[01:14] <owh> Usher: Because you might be running in a production environment where that's not so simple.
[01:14] <bruenig> Usher, well for instance, 7.04 is in beta right now and was in alpha before that. I don't want to put that on my computer and have it fail and crash and stuff until it is ready. But if they are packaging new apps, I would want those.

[01:15] <nazo029A> !lamp
[01:15] <Usher> I will pay 100 doll hairs to the person that can help me set up Linux on RAID 0 :)
[01:15] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[01:15] <Jumbola> nazo029A:  thats what i m not asking.. i want to ask if i m running fiesty beta.. when fiesty will launch full version for use.. then can i upgrade just beta to fiesty ? or download a new copy of full version fiesty?
[01:15] <kuma_> hi, i'm having problems with the glibc library, i'm getting a "not found" error even tough i've installed build_essential. Any ideas?
[01:15] <owh> Usher: Well, that will pay for about 30 minutes, what about the rest of my time :)
[01:16] <Usher> Jumbola: I'm pretty sure it will upgrade itself, unless you are using 6.06
[01:16] <Enverex> kuma_, Check that libc6 and libc6-dev are installed
[01:16] <owh> Usher: Seriously though, there are quite a few documents on the subject.
[01:16] <Jumbola> Usher:  i m using fiesty beta.
[01:16] <kupesoft> Jumbola: Feisty beta will "turn in" (to the best of it's ability) feisty stable when it comes out,
[01:16] <kuma_> Enverex: how can i do that?
[01:16] <owh> kuma_: dpkg -s libc6
[01:16] <Usher> owh: I searched the forums, lots of posts about it but no instructions on how to do it :(
[01:17] <nazo029A> @Jumbola it wouild just upgrade the packages in your system to match those in the fiesty release so yeah i think
[01:17] <owh> Usher: Gimmie a mo...
[01:17] <Jumbola> kupesoft:  thanks for ur suggestion..
[01:17] <Jumbola> nazo029A: thats what i wnt to ask :)
[01:17] <Jumbola> nazo029A:  thanks!
[01:17] <owh> Usher: google for "ubuntu raid 0"
[01:17] <kuma_> Enverex: both are "Status: install ok installed"
[01:18] <Usher> owh: Whats Google?
[01:18] <Usher> hah jk.
[01:18] <kuma_> lol
[01:18] <kupesoft> Jumbola: The only difference (minor) is that there may be some residual configuration from the beta installation that won't be the same had you installed the stable freshly. But it should matter, "if it ain't broke don't fix it". The software will be all the same as feisty stable.
[01:18] <vox754> !headers
[01:18] <ubotu> To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages

[01:22] <neil__> I want a spash background for grub :)
[01:22] <ericrost> is there an easy way to add an XP dual boot to a system with edgy already installed? I need xp to do a bios update (they only provide SWinFlash)
[01:22] <kuma_> hi, i'm having problems with the glibc library, i'm getting a "not found" error even tough i've installed build_essential. Any ideas?
[01:22] <ericrost> I did some minor searching and could only come up with guides for starting with XP installed
[01:23] <nazo029A> yeah but itl wipe the bootloader
[01:23] <owh> ericrost: Can you use something like BartPE instead?
[01:23] <ajmorris_> ericrost, it is fairly easy. Install XP then re-add grub back to the mbr via ubuntu live cd or another such as noppix
[01:23] <ericrost> owh: what's BartPE?
[01:23] <owh> ericrost: Alternatively, swap out the HDD?
[01:23] <owh> ericrost: Google is your friend :)
[01:24] <ericrost> owh: its a lappy and I don't have a second HDD for it
[01:24] <owh> ericrost: Will it boot off USB?
[01:24] <ericrost> owh: I did extensive googling and didn't come up with good options, yes it'll boot from usb
[01:24] <ericrost> owh: and I have a usb drive handy :)
[01:24] <geecko> Hi! i'm have a problem
[01:24] <ericrost> owh: only 512 MB though
[01:24] <owh> ericrost: Install XP onto the USB drive, boot, fix, wipe.
[01:25] <ericrost> can XP live on a 512 MB USB stick?
[01:25] <owh> ericrost: Does the BIOS tool only work under XP, or other versions of Windows
[01:25] <Epic720> does anyone know anything about NetJuke?
[01:25] <ericrost> owh: other versions, but XP is the only disk I have handy
[01:25] <owh> Epic720: Nope, did you use google?
[01:26] <Epic720> yes, no pages deal with the error.
[01:26] <owh> ericrost: Will it run from DOS?
[01:26] <ericrost> owh: no, that's what I tried first
[01:26] <salty-horse> does anyone have /usr/share/man/man1/orbd.1.gz on their system?
[01:26] <owh> Epic720: I have found that if I google for something and there is no result, then I'm looking for the wrong thing.
[01:26] <geecko> I have a toshiba notebook when I start ubuntu without conect to AC, ubuntu doesn't start, somebody can help me?
[01:26] <ericrost> owh: and the file won't work with the dos based phoenix flashers
[01:26] <ericrost> owh: bartPE looks like a good option though
[01:26] <owh> salty-horse: dpkg -S orbd.1.gz will tell you what installed it.
[01:26] <ajmorris_> neil__, yes that is still valid i did it myself
[01:27] <ajmorris_> *used it myself i mean
[01:27] <salty-horse> owh, nothing did :/ - that's why i'm asking if others have it
[01:27] <Epic720> yeah, I don't know anything about mysql and I am just trying to get NetJuke running, stuff shows up in the mysql database, but the install crashes.
[01:27] <salty-horse> owh, it's screwing with my "man 3" commands
[01:27] <owh> salty-horse: Visit packages.ubuntu.com and do a search there.
[01:27] <colbert> what's the command to use with VLC to get it to play a file.. like i know the command is "wxvlc" but when I click on a mounted DVD and click Play, it opens VLC but VLC just sits there
[01:27] <salty-horse> owh, give me an initial tip please - do you have it or not?
[01:28] <ericrost> owh: but it looks like I need a running win environment to do it?
[01:28] <thepumpkin1979> hi. I need a hand with PocketPC Sync :(
[01:28] <salty-horse> owh, thing is, if there's no such package, i may have installed it manually
[01:28] <salty-horse> owh, i just want to make sure. thanks
[01:28] <nazo029A> i second that request thepumpkin1979
[01:28] <ajmorris_> salty-horse, i have that file
[01:28] <salty-horse> ajmorris_, try running "man 3 blablabla"
[01:29] <neil__> ajmorris: Does it change the boot loader, or does it give an image for when gnome is starting?
[01:29] <owh> salty-horse: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=orbd.1.gz&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=feisty&arch=i386
[01:29] <thepumpkin1979> do you know how to syncronize PocketPC in Ubuntu? nazo029A?
[01:29] <owh> salty-horse: Java
[01:29] <salty-horse> ajmorris_, you *should* be seeing "No manual entry for blablabla in section 3"
[01:29] <ericrost> owh: will bartpe run under wine/cedega?
[01:29] <ajmorris_> neil__, gives an image as the background when choseing the kernel
[01:29] <AmaroqWolf> owh: haha, copying the second cd to the hd works just fine! :P It's installing.
[01:29] <owh> ericrost: I doubt it.
[01:29] <n-iCe> Hello how can i rename a file in the terminal?????????
[01:29] <salty-horse> owh, how come dpkg -S doesn't report it? is it automatically generated from the package install script?
[01:30] <owh> AmaroqWolf: Excellent.
[01:30] <owh> salty-horse: Only if it's still installed.
[01:30] <nazo029A> @thepumpkin1979 only from a virtual windows xp machine im afriad, using virtualbox
[01:30] <ericrost> hmm.. then that probably won't work, as I don't have a running win system (which is the original prob :(
[01:30] <owh> n-iCe: mv oldname newname
[01:30] <ajmorris_> salty-horse, no i see manual entries for it . lol
[01:30] <salty-horse> owh, which package should I report the bug under, then? how did you discover it was java?
[01:30] <thepumpkin1979> nazo029A, I have VMWARE with Windows XP.
[01:30] <owh> salty-horse: Did you click on the link I gave you?
[01:30] <salty-horse> owh, missed it :) thanks
[01:31] <salty-horse> channel too active
[01:31] <thepumpkin1979> nazo, let me check virtualBox.
[01:31] <ericrost> owh: how easy is it under an ubuntu live cd to re-grub the MBR?
[01:31] <salty-horse> owh, how come I don't have that package installed, but the file is still there?
[01:31] <owh> ericrost: That's not a bad idea, but you can only use it to create a BartPE, because you won't be able to flash from within Virtual PC.
[01:31] <thepumpkin1979> ActiveSync for WinXP on VMWARE does not recognize my devices:(
[01:31] <owh> salty-horse: Perhaps you manually installed it?
[01:32] <dm> -Anyone got Lineage2 working with WINE?
[01:32] <owh> ericrost: No idea, never wanted to :)
[01:32] <salty-horse> owh, possibly.. frankly, I don't remember - ajmorris_ how about you?
[01:32] <ripper> dm try qemu :)
[01:32] <ericrost> wait, install XP under vmware, create bartPE, boot from bartPE? that way no MBR messing?
[01:32] <owh> salty-horse: You can just delete the file :)
[01:33] <owh> ericrost: Indeed.
[01:33] <ajmorris_> salty-horse, sry wasn't following what about what?
[01:33] <salty-horse> ajmorris_, any chance you manually installed java?
[01:33] <ericrost> owh: I'll give that a try, do you think there'll be any messiness from AMD64 for vmware?
[01:33] <ajmorris_> salty-horse, nope used the repos

[01:48] <Wimpog> GUYS, does anybody know how to add modules to Apache server running on Ubuntu? I asked in #apache, but no one seemed to reply. The module I need is called 'mod_expires' and it doesn't even exist in the system, so I can't enable it...

[01:49] <waseem> right now its supposed to be 16:49
[01:49] <waseem> owh: ok
[01:49] <lix> Wimpog: in Apache2 you have the folder /etc/apache2/mods-available. to activate a module create a symbolic link in /etx/apache2/mods-enabled
[01:50] <lix> Wimpog: Then reload the apache config by doing: "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
[01:50] <Wimpog> lix: the problem is that module isn't in that folder, I already checked it
[01:51] <graft> wick2o: seems a bit daft, eh, to have to search through the web when the package manager knows exactly where the thing is?
[01:51] <graft> wick2o: surely apt has a way to do this?
[01:51] <owh> graft: What are you wanting to do again?
[01:51] <wick2o> graft: dont know, youll have to look at the man page
[01:51] <Wimpog> lix: that module simply doesn't exist on my system.... 'a2enmod' says it is not found
[01:51] <lix> Wimpog: do "apt-cache search apache2 | grep mod" to check if the module is there
[01:51] <graft> download a deb from the repository
[01:52] <owh> apt-get -d package doesn't work for you?
[01:52] <wick2o> i just wget when i only want one or two debs

[01:57] <Pelo> jacksonL,  sorry but we don'T indulge in MS bashing here
[01:57] <slackern> jacksonL, maybe linux has a driver to handle the SATA controller but windows doesn't

[01:59] <slackern> jacksonL, For some SATA controllers XP/Vista has driver but not for all of them, then you need to press F6 during the installation and insert floppy(other media) to access them.
[02:00] <Pelo> kelsey435,  you might need to manualy partition your hdd first and instal after,  we can tell you how to do that
[02:00] <owh> salty-horse: sudo dpkg-reconfigure man-db
[02:00] <Wimpog> lix what exactly have you found? I do have that directory, and a2enmod command, but I don't have 'mod_expires' module
[02:00] <kelsey435> ok, pelo can we do that is a pm so i dont get things lost in the channel
[02:01] <Pelo> kelsey435,  thank you for asking first

[02:02] <owh> salty-horse: Depends on your environment.
[02:02] <lix> Wimpog: I don't kno much about that module. But I've found it there and also: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_expires.so
[02:02] <salty-horse> owh, could you be a little less cryptic please?
[02:02] <graft> owh: thanks, but none of those worked... resorting to wget :(
[02:03] <AmaroqWolf> oh my... xD Aliens Vs Predetor is terrible under wine. White flashy stuff everywhere...
[02:03] <Wimpog> lix: YEAH, I just found mine here too. Do you know now how to enable it?
[02:04] <thepumpkin1979> hi. today is April 4. Feisty was released?
[02:04] <bruenig> thepumpkin1979, feisty releasted on april 19
[02:04] <jin> nope
[02:04] <bruenig> released*
[02:05] <thepumpkin1979> Understood:)
[02:05] <jin> it will be
[02:05] <thepumpkin1979> Thank you jin and bruening.
[02:05] <owh> salty-horse: I wasn't trying to be cryptic.
[02:06] <lix> Wimpog: I think you have to write the Line "LoadModule expires_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_expires.so" into /etc/apache2/mods-available/mod-expire.load
[02:06] <whtet> where can I read about chroot (other than wiki and man) and how to use chroot
[02:06] <salty-horse> owh, what do you mean by "depends on your environment"? what are the different environments?
[02:06] <thepumpkin1979> Another question :),  i have downloaded fesity beta. is the same that the one planeed to be released in April 19? I mean... should I do Dist-Upgrade on April 19?
[02:06] <bruenig> whtet, other than man and wiki? what do you have in mind?
[02:06] <lix> Wimpog: Then you'll need the file /etc/apache2/mods-available/mod-expire.conf as well
[02:07] <owh> salty-horse: It depends on who is using this computer, how many users, their usage patterns, etc.
[02:07] <whtet> some online article ...
[02:07] <salty-horse> owh, more specifically, why did you suggest running the alternatives configuration?
[02:07] <whtet> which explain stuff in layman term ;)
[02:07] <owh> salty-horse: I don't know that I did? What do you mean?
[02:07] <Wimpog> lix: CAN I just add that line into httpd.conf?
[02:07] <salty-horse> owh, sorry. i meant dpkg-reconfigure
[02:07] <lix> Wimpog: Sure. That should work as well
[02:07] <bruenig> whtet, the chroot wiki is not really all that crazy, if you are having some real big problems with that, chroot might be a bit much
[02:07] <thepumpkin1979> i repeat :$, i have downloaded fesity beta. is the same that the one planeed to be released in April 19? I mean... should I do Dist-Upgrade on April 19?
[02:08] <Wimpog> lix: OK, let me try...
[02:08] <lix> Wimpog: sorry, i'm not the apache pro. but trying to figure out as well ;)
[02:08] <man_id_unknown> How do I copy a .so to /user/lib/ with root permission?
[02:08] <owh> salty-horse: Because that runs the man-db configuration script. If for some reason it was trashed, this cleans it up again.
[02:08] <owh> man_id_unknown: sudo cp
[02:08] <bruenig> thepumpkin1979, yes, you should, go to #ubuntu+1 for other feisty questions
[02:08] <Wimpog> lix: so far you've been helpful a lot more than "apache pros" from #apache topic
[02:08] <Wimpog> lix: they dont' know anything there
[02:08] <whtet> bruening , i don't have the problem right now, i want to try using chroot
[02:08] <salty-horse> owh, all it did (visibly) was ask me if i want to change the configuration.
[02:08] <man_id_unknown> owh: Thank you. Also, do you know how to create an install.sh batch file?
[02:09] <whtet> may be, i have to read the wiki again, i guess.
[02:09] <bruenig> whtet, I have looked at the chroot wiki, it is basically downloading a package and then copying a bunch of stuff
[02:09] <man_id_unknown> owh: I see linux programs use them all the time.
[02:09] <owh> Wimpog: That's because in #apache they deal with specific Apache issues, bugs etc. Not generally useful for installation issues.
[02:09] <owh> salty-horse: It's the invisible stuff I was counting on :)
[02:09] <lix> Wimpog: Check this as well (the guy is enabling the same module in httpd.conf as well): http://www.openfsg.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=541&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
[02:09] <bruenig> man_id_unknown, install.sh could be anything, it is a script, create it however you want
[02:09] <salty-horse> owh, :)     where should I report/ask my problem?
[02:10] <Wimpog> lix: let's seee
[02:10] <owh> man_id_unknown: Well, you create a text file with commands in it, then you make it executable with chmod +x
[02:10] <man_id_unknown> bruenig: In other words, I could type into it anything I would in a terminal?
[02:10] <man_id_unknown> owh: Really, that simple?
[02:10] <shiv_j> I have a cd/dvdrw drive. Now this never reads any CD but only DVDs is that ever possible?
[02:10] <owh> salty-horse: Well, let's first find out what is actually happening. I'm googling for you in the background.
[02:10] <bruenig> man_id_unknown, pretty much, there is some higher level stuff, but generally yes
[02:10] <owh> man_id_unknown: Yup. Many examples exist in /etc/init.d/
[02:10] <man_id_unknown> bruenig: thank you.
[02:11] <man_id_unknown> owh: thank you.
[02:11] <bruenig> man_id_unknown, make sure at the top of the file you put #!/bin/bash for it to work
[02:11] <dewprism> .... wow im completely lost on the topic
[02:11] <man_id_unknown> bruenig: Ahhhh...I'll keep that in mind. ;)
[02:11] <BarronVon> anyclue why uploads would not be going above 0 in azureus?
[02:11] <thepumpkin1979> OMG, i did readed Vista DMR Restrictions... is amazing...!
[02:11] <man_id_unknown> bruenig: Question. Is the format 'sudo cp source distination' ?
[02:11] <dewprism> maybe you dont have enough downloaded to upload it?
[02:12] <bruenig> man_id_unknown, yes
[02:13] <mwosh> hey all.. I'm having some some troubles with my video card in ubuntu.. anyone able to help?
[02:13] <man_id_unknown> bruening: Again, thank you. This really is a life-saver.
[02:13] <owh> salty-horse: Ok, let's start somewhere. Do any other man commands fail?
[02:13] <man_id_unknown> bruenig: Sir, one last question, (until my next one). How do I leave comments, (such as // in c/c++) ?
[02:13] <bruenig> man_id_unknown, #
[02:14] <Wimpog> lix: hmm I added the line: LoadModule mod_expires /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_expires.so into httpd.conf and now when I restart it gives me that error: Can't locate API module structure `mod_expires' in file /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_expires.so: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_expires.so: undefined symbol: mod_expires
[02:14] <man_id_unknown> bruening: Great.
[02:14] <salty-horse> owh, "man <section other than 3>" gave me the correct "what do you want from.." output. "man 3 <existing manual>" gave me that manual
[02:14] <dewprism> wow... you guys are like automated robots
[02:14] <mwosh> My video card is really laggy when in ubuntu... where can I find driver updates for it?
[02:14] <owh> dewprism: Nope, people all the way :)
[02:14] <lix> Wimpog: Sorry. I have to surrender :(
[02:14] <mwosh> I tried going to ati.com but it doesnt seem to work
[02:14] <owh> dewprism: Well, except for the bot :)
[02:14] <dewprism> maybe its defected?
[02:14] <salty-horse> dewprism, I concur ***
[02:15] <Wimpog> lix: it's OK, I'll keep trying
[02:15] <owh> salty-horse: So, only section three is borked?
[02:15] <asd> hey, does anyone have an extra joost invite? could you please msg me if you do??
[02:15] <salty-horse> owh, yes
[02:15] <p_masho> I've installed Ubuntu and I think its edgy.. is that NOt the latest.. is it Feisty
[02:15] <bruenig> p_masho, do lsb_release -a to find out
[02:15] <dewprism> anyone tell me if i need a certain version of linux to use wine or whatever that windows simulator is
[02:16] <MTecknology> what is this file for? - /usr/share/man/man1
[02:16] <owh> salty-horse: Just for fun, try the man command with -d
[02:16] <bruenig> dewey, I would assume any kernel over 2.4 would be good, so that is basically any distro that exists
[02:16] <hekar> dewprise: the lastest version of ubuntu should be fine
[02:17] <onispawn> anyone know how I can dump a damaged ntfs drive to another drive?
[02:17] <owh> onispawn: ntfsclone
[02:17] <bruenig> onispawn, you could use dd
[02:17] <owh> onispawn: or dd
[02:17] <dewprism> hekar: do you know anywhere i can get info on how to get that to work? *is complete programming illiterate)
[02:17] <onispawn> I tried dd, but its taking forever due to the large amount of errors on the drive
[02:17] <bruenig> onispawn, dd if=/dev/damageddrive of=/dev/newdrive
[02:17] <neil__> !ati
[02:17] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:17] <bruenig> oh
[02:17] <mwosh> anyone know where i can update my ati driver?
[02:17] <mwosh> ahh
[02:17] <mwosh> thanks
[02:17] <onispawn> took 3 days for 6 GB
[02:18] <owh> onispawn: If the drive is physically fsked, then that's what you do. There is no other way.
[02:18] <owh> onispawn: You haven't actually mounted the drive I hope?
[02:18] <wick2o> norton ghost
[02:18] <onispawn> no its not mounted
[02:18] <owh> wick2o: That's just a tarted up version of dd :)
[02:18] <whta> on my XGL session, i don't have a restart or shut down button.
[02:19] <wick2o> owh: true, but sometimes you get hungry :)
[02:19] <wick2o> everyone likes a tart
[02:19] <owh> ROTFL
[02:19] <sizzam> is there a key command to hold while clicking something in Firefox to temporarily bypass the pop-up blocker?
[02:19] <dewprism> lol
[02:19] <bruenig> whta, go to system>admnistration>login window and make sure "show actions menu" is checked, and go to #ubuntu-effects for xgl help
[02:19] <dewprism> poptart?
[02:19] <onispawn> is there a way to make dd not try multiple times when it comes across an error?
[02:19] <wick2o> sweettarts
[02:19] <dewprism> dont have any ;(
[02:19] <owh> onispawn: Hmm, good question, lemmie look.
[02:19] <Wimpog> lix: I think I got it
[02:19] <wick2o> redbull = liquid sweet tarts
[02:20] <whta> bruenig: it's checked. I have the things like log off, switch user, hibernate, etc. just no shut down/restart
[02:20] <dewprism> *is too young to drink*
[02:20] <wick2o> man this auto mount thing is killing me
[02:20] <lix> Wimpog: Cool! How?
[02:20] <salty-horse> owh, http://paste.lisp.org/display/39234
[02:20] <bruenig> whta, yeah common problem with compositing, go to #ubuntu-effects
[02:20] <Wimpog> lix: I hade wrong name should be LoadModule expires_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_expires.so
[02:20] <kitche> onispawn: yes you can have dd ingore all erros
[02:20] <whta> thanks
[02:20] <bruenig> onispawn, looks like "noerror"
[02:20] <Wimpog> lix: and before I had mod_expires
[02:21] <lix> Wimpog: Oh! :) nice. Glad, you're successful!
[02:21] <bruenig> onispawn, not sure of the syntax, I assume something like "dd noerror if=..."
[02:21] <slackern> sizzam, not sure but the standard i think is holding down control button while clicking links
[02:21] <Wimpog> lix: Thanks to you!!!
[02:21] <onispawn> noerror just makes it so it doesn't quit on an error, but it still tries again and again
[02:21] <lix> Wimpog: :)
[02:21] <onispawn> it gives up after a while and moves on
[02:21] <dewprism> anyone here have about a million hours to teach someone whos never used linux,dos,c++,anything involving programming some of that basic programming?
[02:21] <sizzam> slackern: doesn't seem to work for me, tried shift, alt, ctrl
[02:21] <dewprism> no? thought so xD
[02:21] <wick2o> dewprism: lol
[02:21] <dewprism> hey cmon
[02:22] <wick2o> get a "programming for dummies" book
[02:22] <dewprism> its not my fault i dunno anything =(
[02:22] <slackern> sizzam, otherwise you could click the popupblocker icon thingy and choose it to not block that site
[02:22] <dewprism> no i just need a programming book
[02:22] <wick2o> dewprism: its completely your fault
[02:22] <bimberi> !info ddrescue | onispawn
[02:22] <neil__> lol
[02:22] <ubotu> onispawn: ddrescue: copies data from one file or block device to another. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.10-1 (edgy), package size 16 kB, installed size 76 kB
[02:22] <UnixTitan> K & R
[02:22] <dewprism> im not retarded >.> just special
[02:22] <wick2o> ignorance is no excuse
[02:22] <UnixTitan> dewey, K & R is the bomb :)
[02:22] <bruenig> dewprism, buy one
[02:22] <sizzam> slackern:  i think that allows all popups for that URL, i just want to temporarily allow one pop-up
[02:22] <milardovich> hi
[02:23] <wick2o> special as in "i found 10 bux in my pocket" or "george bush" special?
[02:23] <onispawn> tried that too. it was a little bit faster, but was still taking forever
[02:23] <mwosh> i'm getting an error when I try to update some drivers: "E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?" What might be causing this?
[02:23] <bruenig> dewprism, you could probably learn bash scripting, that is pretty easy, not really programming but sort of
[02:23] <bruenig> mwosh, synaptic or update-manager being open
[02:23] <mwosh> you guys are good
[02:23] <dewprism> website for it?
[02:23] <bimberi> onispawn: kk :|
[02:23] <dewprism> or a book?
[02:23] <neil__> google?
[02:23] <neil__> :)
[02:23] <whta> bruenig: do you know if it's possible to actually add the buttons back onto the menu? the people there right now aren't really making anything clear
[02:23] <UnixTitan> its a book dewprism .
[02:24] <wick2o> dewprism: it all depends what you want to program in
[02:24] <UnixTitan> a $65 dollar book
[02:24] <UnixTitan> that is the C bible.
[02:24] <dewprism> $65? O_O
[02:24] <wick2o> you can get the basics off the web for free
[02:24] <bruenig> whta, I don't know, I just know that I've seen that problem a lot with compositing
[02:24] <dewprism> im frigin 15. no job. poor.
[02:24] <wick2o> but investing in ref manuals may just save your life
[02:24] <bruenig> whta, you can always shutdown via command line if you want
[02:24] <dewprism> so no books
[02:24] <slackern> sizzam, sorry no idea then, maybe they just made it that way =/
[02:24] <owh> mwosh: You are running the command as a normal user, not with sudo.
[02:24] <onispawn> dewprism: http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/HOWTO/C++Programming-HOWTO-13.html
[02:24] <owh> salty-horse: That's a lot of output.
[02:24] <dewprism> yay
[02:24] <UnixTitan> dewey, K & R is in the library of every successful C programmer.
[02:24] <sizzam> thanks slackern, that's what i'm starting to think
[02:24] <salty-horse> owh, yup
[02:25] <owh> salty-horse: I'm working through it :)
[02:25] <UnixTitan> onispawn, for a starting programmer C++ how-to will suck.
[02:25] <salty-horse> owh, notice the "orbd" area. "trying a db located file"
[02:25] <onispawn> UnixTitan: on that page there is a learn c++ in 21 days ebook link
[02:25] <bruenig> 21 days right
[02:25] <salty-horse> owh, it looks for 3 under section 1
[02:25] <owh> salty-horse: Yup, I'm working on it :)
[02:25] <UnixTitan> onispawn, and I'm saying c++ isn't a good language to start with
[02:25] <UnixTitan> anything OO isn't.
[02:25] <dewprism> hells yeah
[02:25] <salty-horse> "man 1 3" gives me orbd
[02:26] <Epic720> I don't really know how to set up this php page with NetJuke, when I try to open the page login.php I get a parse error
[02:26] <onispawn> UnixTitan: why not? thats what I started with.
[02:26] <salty-horse> owh, "man 1 3" gives me orbd
[02:26] <pinksk1> hi
[02:26] <oktober> hello
[02:26] <dewprism> before i learn programming though i wanna learn to use "wine"
[02:26] <owh> salty-horse: What is your $PATH
[02:26] <dewprism> heh.... man am i annoying or what?
[02:26] <owh> salty-horse: Moreover, what is your $MANPATH
[02:26] <bruenig> dewprism, just open a terminal and do "wine /path/to/whatever.exe"
[02:26] <oktober> anyone know how to set up a printer with a print server hub? DI-707P?? :)
[02:27] <UnixTitan> onispawn, c is a much better starting language.. then when you move into c++ you have a much better understand of what is actually going on. and c++ is much easier then :)
[02:27] <bruenig> no such thing as MANPATH
[02:27] <dewprism> and that lets me run any windows program? O_O
[02:27] <compengi> when i'm ./configure gaim it gives me checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[02:27] <compengi> See `config.log' for more details.
[02:27] <wick2o> dewprism: in thery
[02:27] <pinksk1> I am trying to get my bluetooth mouse to work with this laptop, i have installed all bluez stuff but when i thefallen@TheFallenLaptop:~$ hcitool scan
[02:27] <pinksk1> Device is not available: No such device
[02:27] <pinksk1>  I get that,any ideas what I am doing wrong?
[02:27] <bruenig> compengi, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:27] <salty-horse> owh, $MANPATH is empty - $PATH is generic (my ~/bin has a few scripts in it): /home/ori/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games
[02:27] <kitche> bruenig: well there is but ubuntu probably doesn't set it
[02:27] <bruenig> kitche, that is what I meant
[02:27] <owh> dewprism: In theory practice and theory are the same, in practice they're not.
[02:28] <TiMoZi> hey
[02:28] <onispawn> meh.. to each their own I guess.
[02:28] <UnixTitan> :)
[02:28] <TiMoZi> hi, im doing an ubuntu installation right now
[02:28] <owh> salty-horse: Hmm, one mo.
[02:28] <mwosh> owh, what do you mean run it as normal and not with sudo?
[02:28] <owh> mwosh: You are running apt, aptitude or dpkg from the command line I'm guessing.
[02:28] <TiMoZi> it keeps crashing at the brug install, 94% done. can i install grub myself now? without having to start from scratch again?
[02:29] <vikingr> hey.. i use feisty and after todays update (just some minutes ago), my external hd cannot be mounted anymore. the hd is encrypted with cryptsetup/luks. when i try to mount it manually, i get the message "unknown filesystem type 'crypto_LUKS'" - the modules aes, sha256, dm_mod and dm_crypt are loaded
[02:29] <mwosh> yeah
[02:29] <TiMoZi> grub*
[02:29] <bruenig> vikingr, #ubuntu+1
[02:29] <owh> mwosh: You need to run those commands as root using the sudo command.
[02:29] <vikingr> bruenig: k, thanks
[02:29] <mwosh> so should i log into the root user?
[02:29] <mwosh> i'm currently in my username
[02:29] <mwosh> should i log in as root?
[02:29] <BarronVon> any ideas on why my torrents are downloading fine but wont upload a lick? and there are tons of leachers on the torrent
[02:29] <owh> mwosh: There is no such thing.
[02:29] <mwosh> sory
[02:29] <mwosh> lol
[02:29] <oktober> Can anyone help with getting broadband router/print server working?
[02:30] <dewprism> hmm... whats that command you gotta type to find out what linux labled as muh harddrive ..... sudo something -l
[02:30] <mwosh> i'm very green to linux
[02:30] <oktober> I can't get my printer to talk through it
[02:30] <owh> mwosh: That's fine.
[02:30] <bruenig> mwosh, you preface any command that would require root privileges with "sudo"
[02:30] <mwosh> yeah... i've been doing that
[02:30] <bruenig> !sudo | mwosh more thorough explanation
[02:30] <owh> salty-horse: I'm a little stumped.
[02:30] <steve_> irc://thelinuxlink.net/techshow
[02:30] <mwosh> !sudo
[02:30] <ubotu> mwosh more thorough explanation: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:30] <dewprism> ty
[02:30] <wick2o> BarronVon: you dont have the proper ports open on your network
[02:30] <salty-horse> owh, who should I ask? "answers" the man package in launchpad?
[02:30] <BarronVon> wick2o: thanks i'll look into that
[02:30] <mwosh> i've just been following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[02:31] <owh> salty-horse: Well, I've been doing this for a little while, so you're going to have fun anywhere. Give me a little time.
[02:31] <goldy> dewprism: get K&R C book from amazon.com marketplace for like $20
[02:31] <wick2o> BarronVon: look into port forwarding
[02:31] <neil__> Whats a good cpp development app for ubuntu?
[02:31] <owh> !port-forwarding
[02:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about port-forwarding - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <BarronVon> wick2o: on the router?
[02:31] <neil__> I want to write, edit and compile code
[02:31] <owh> ROTFL
[02:32] <oktober> Anyone know where I can figure out how to use my print server/ router?
[02:32] <payan> mwosh: if you want to install propietary driver try installing envy. It will do it for you
[02:32] <compengi> bruenig, thanks :)
[02:32] <jin_> !nvidia
[02:32] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:32] <BarronVon> wick2o: i don't think i need to port forward because i use this same router with windows xp torrent clients and it uploads and downloads just fine!
[02:32] <payan> mwosh: sudo apt-get install envy
[02:33] <bruenig> payan, envy is not in the repos
[02:33] <bruenig> !info envy
[02:33] <neil__> whats the best way to develop c++ in ubuntu? editing and compiling..
[02:33] <ubotu> Package envy does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas

[02:33] <Zues_62> hey guys
[02:33] <mwosh> ahhhh
[02:33] <salty-horse> owh, thanks
[02:33] <Zues_62> i have just formated a disc how do i set it to EXT3?
[02:33] <mwosh> one million times better
[02:33] <DM|> So does anyone know how to get 3d Accel working in VMware WinXP guest?
[02:33] <bruenig> Zues_62, how did you format it?
[02:33] <mwosh> thank you so much guys
[02:33] <Zues_62> with cfdisk
[02:33] <owh> Hmm, how do I add a factoid to ubotu?
[02:34] <compengi> bruenig, after continuing it gives me configure: error:
[02:34] <compengi> You must have the GLib 2.0 development headers installed to build Gaim.
[02:34] <PriceChild> DM|, youcan't get hardware acceleration as the guest has no access to your hardware. (unless you u se scary unstable stuff)
[02:34] <JoseBravo> Why sudo apt-get install conky don't found nothing?
[02:34] <bruenig> compengi, sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
[02:34] <mwosh> now i dont suppose any of you would know how to install beryl on edgy?
[02:34] <bruenig> JoseBravo, to add all the extra official repositories and install conky, 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:
[02:34] <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 conky
[02:34] <Zues_62> do u know how to format it so its an ext3
[02:34] <DM|> PriceChild im willing to experiement, VMGL got it working but i was curious to find out how i can use that same stuff for a winxp guest
[02:35] <PriceChild> DM|, I don't know how sorry
[02:35] <oktober> anyone handy with printer configurations?
[02:35] <onispawn> neil__: I personally use emacs for editing, but I have heard good things about eclipse with the C++ plugin
[02:35] <bruenig> compengi, to shortcut all the dependency finding, you may wish to do "sudo apt-get build-dep gaim"
[02:35] <DM|> PriceChild it ok, i forgive u this one time.
[02:35] <PriceChild> hehe thanks ;)
[02:35] <Zues_62> ok fine ill look on the net
[02:35] <DM|> anytime :)
[02:35] <compengi> bruenig, i've done that, but it's asking me those things :S
[02:35] <bruenig> compengi, fair enough
[02:36] <bimberi> owh: did ubotu respond when you tried?
[02:36] <owh> bimberi: It told me it was a bot :)

[02:37] <owh> salty-horse: I'm thinking your issue is a path issue, but I'm not yet sure.
[02:37] <bruenig> owh, I've seen someone do it before, it was something like !no factoidname is "whatever" but I don't know if that was because they were an op or something, but yeah

[02:38] <wick2o> anyone know how to run a custom bash script whenever a cd automounts?
[02:39] <owh> bruenig: Ok, lemmie do that :)
[02:39] <bruenig> owh, everything after the "is" is what the factoid would be
[02:39] <Fujitsu> bruenig: No, what owh said was right. The second port-forwarding is unnecessary.
[02:39] <wick2o> ive been googling on /etc/fstab but not finding anything useful
[02:39] <cafuego_> wick2o: udev
[02:39] <wick2o> cafuego: udev?
[02:39] <peepsalot> what does a private message look like in xchat?
[02:39] <bruenig> Fujitsu, I thought the first one was the name of the factoid and then everything after the is is what the actual factoid would be when you did it
[02:39] <Fujitsu> wick2o: Try System->Preferences->Removable Media
[02:39] <compengi> bruenig, You must have the GTK+ 2.0 development headers installed to compile Gaim's

[02:39] <compengi> specify --disable-gtkui when running configure.
[02:39] <wick2o> Fujitsu: no GUI
[02:39] <bruenig> peepsalot, a tab pops up on the bottom, assuming you are doing tabs
[02:39] <Manu_22> hola
[02:39] <Fujitsu> bruenig: ubotu says `blah is <whatever is after the is>'
[02:40] <wick2o> sorry i should have specificed
[02:40] <peepsalot> hmm, bruenig.  my xchat tray icon told me I had 3 private message, but i saw no extra tabs
[02:40] <compengi> bruenig, i wonder why it didn't install those stuff when i had downloaded build-dep gaim :S
[02:40] <owh> salty-horse: Does this problem occur as a different user?
[02:40] <peepsalot> actually, i think i know the issue, nevermind
[02:40] <thepumpkin1979> hola Manu_22. El espaol puede chocar por aca, te recomiendo que hables en english :)
[02:40] <bruenig> compengi, well it is only building the dependencies for the deb that is in the repos, so if the gaim you are compiling is newer, it would make sense that it would have other dependencies

[02:53] <metal03> I'm trying everything and I still can't make that .mkv video work...  anyone can help?
[02:54] <owh> oktober: The process is this: 1. Connect the printer to the router. 2. Configure the router. 3. Add a printer in Linux that prints to the router. 4. Profit.
[02:54] <hendrixski> how do I move an entire folder with the mv command?
[02:54] <bruenig> Zues_62, you will have to edit /etc/fstab in order for it to mount properly and stuff
[02:54] <owh> oktober: So, which of those have you done?
[02:54] <hendrixski> I didn't see it as one of the flags in the man files
[02:54] <bruenig> hendrixski, mv folder destination
[02:54] <Zues_62> oh how do i do that brue
[02:54] <oktober> owh: it's connected, what do I need to do to configure the router?
[02:54] <hendrixski> bruenig, that's what I thought too, but it said it can't move folders
[02:54] <owh> hendrixski: And don't include the trailing slash, or it will move the files.
[02:54] <oktober> owh: I can connect to it and play with all the little settings but I don't know what to look for
[02:54] <bruenig> Zues_62, well when you finish partitioning and applying changes, then I will tell you
[02:55] <Zues_62> ok
[02:55] <owh> oktober: I suspect that you have taken care of 1 and 2.
[02:55] <owh> oktober: Let's start with 3.

[02:58] <owh> neil__: What option did you choose?
[02:58] <Shadowpillar> soft lockup
[02:58] <bruenig> Victorr, then do mkisofs -dvd-video -o whatever.iso folder/
[02:58] <Victorr> bruenig, thanks a lot I will read the dvdauthor man page
[02:58] <owh> oktober: Now choose the driver, and you're good to go.
[02:58] <oktober> owh: alrighty, added the closest printer (MFC-9600)
[02:58] <bruenig> Victorr, well it is just those two commands
[02:58] <neil__> owh: Nothing, just system: admin: printing
[02:58] <owh> neil__: Then, yes.
[02:58] <neil__> Dont get an option
[02:58] <Victorr> bruenig, thanks a lot, I really appreciate it!
[02:58] <oktober> owh: but I try to do a test print and it says, "stopped: job-stopped"
[02:58] <neil__> ok,, just via synaptic?
[02:58] <owh> neil__: Yup
[02:58] <abisen> I have a Intel Core 2 Duo with 4GB of RAM and on ubuntu it only shows around 3GB available any idea what might be wrong... I am running 32bit ubuntu
[02:58] <bruenig> hendrixski, no
[02:58] <oktober> owh: "Paused: /usr/lib/cups/backend/lpd failed"
[02:59] <owh> oktober: That is likely a router issue. Is the IP address correct?
[02:59] <neil__> owh: thanks
[02:59] <oktober> owh: no, hold, typos
[02:59] <owh> neil__: Pleasure.
[03:00] <hendrixski> bruenig, wow, so you help all these people for fun?  that's awesome.  Thanks! :-)
[03:00] <hendrixski> definitely helped me a few times
[03:00] <owh> hendrixski: And perhaps next time when you come here for a question, you stick around for some answers :)
[03:01] <hendrixski> owh, I try to when I can :-)  I'm still kind of new myself
[03:01] <oktober> owh: holy cow, I think it might have gone through!!!
[03:01] <waseem> hi how do i uninstall limewire?
[03:01] <owh> hendrixski: A 747 pilot learnt to fly a Cessna once too :)
[03:01] <Apollo^101> i just installed ntfs-3g but i am unable to write nfts partitions. what can be the reason?
[03:01] <abisen> any grub modification that could get me 1GB back such that it's usable ?
[03:01] <bruenig> Apollo^101, cat /etc/fstab, pastebin that output of that command
[03:02] <bruenig> !pastebin | Apollo^101
[03:02] <ubotu> Apollo^101: 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)
[03:02] <oktober> owh: ok, it works! Thanks!
[03:02] <hendrixski> owh, totally.  I know
[03:02] <owh> oktober: You have not been charged for this free support service :)
[03:02] <waseem> hi does anyone here know how to uninstall limewire?
[03:02] <bruenig> waseem, how did you install it
[03:02] <oktober> owh: W00t! So... where can I learn more about this stuff??
[03:02] <owh> waseem: How did you install it?
[03:03] <waseem> ubuntuguide
[03:03] <bruenig> owh, that capital H and ? screwed you
[03:03] <dabaR> waseem: Do you know where it's dir is?
[03:03] <BarronVon> anyone have a clue why on this computer under windows xp i can go to any coffee shop in town and download and upload like a banshee with bittorrent clients but under ubuntu 6.10 i can't seem to get anything to fly?
[03:03] <bruenig> waseem, link to the ubuntuguide part
[03:03] <waseem> well i accidentally installed Dash when it tells you not to, so maybe i should just uninstall dash
[03:03] <dabaR> waseem: maybe try "which limewire"
[03:03] <waseem> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_P2P_Gnutella_Client_.28LimeWire.29
[03:03] <owh> bruenig: No, on my console I was first :)
[03:03] <NDAKOTA> hello, to automatically connect to a wireless router,which file do i add the essid name to
[03:03] <bruenig> owh, hmmm, well we need to go to the independent judges
[03:04] <bruenig> owh, although I do have lag as I am torrenting season 2 reno 911
[03:04] <owh> bruenig: The time-stamps are the same :)
[03:04] <owh> bruenig: I'm on a two-way satellite link, absolutely no excuse.
[03:04] <bruenig> which I own so it is not illegal ...
[03:04] <HymnToLife> bruenig won here :p
[03:04] <kylecasey> hi
[03:04] <NDAKOTA> hello, to automatically connect to a wireless router,which file do i add the essid name to
[03:05] <bruenig> !howdy | kylecasey
[03:05] <ubotu> kylecasey: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:05] <BarronVon> any clue why torrents under linux are not uploading?
[03:05] <waseem> owh: any ideas?
[03:05] <HymnToLife> NDAKOTA, /etc/network/interfaces
[03:05] <bruenig> BarronVon, probably port forwarding problems
[03:05] <wqeqwe> how to know my own ip? in the terminal
[03:05] <HymnToLife> I don't remember the exact syntax for wireless stuff but I'm sure it's in there
[03:05] <kylecasey> hey anybody use an ati graphics card and know how to make it work with ubuntu??
[03:05] <HymnToLife> wqeqwe, (sudo) ifconfig
[03:05] <owh> waseem: Well, we asked you how you installed it and you answered ubuntuguide, which is not a command I'm familiar with.
[03:05] <bruenig> wqeqwe, ipconfig | sed 's/addr://' | awk '/Bcast/ {print $2}'
[03:05] <waseem> owh: i linked you to the guide
[03:06] <hendrixski> kylecasey, I've done it a few times... what's up?
[03:06] <bruenig> wqeqwe, ifconfig | sed 's/addr://' | awk '/Bcast/ {print $2}'
[03:06] <bruenig> not ip
[03:06] <HymnToLife> bruenig, iFconfig, ipconfig in in the W' os :p
[03:06] <owh> waseem: You did at that. I'm now clicking to answer my question for you.
[03:06] <BarronVon> bruenig: how can it be a port forwarding problem when i have used this router with windows xp machines and torrents work fine?
[03:06] <jagsUT> yo peeps
[03:06] <jagsUT> im having a very bad ubuntu problem
[03:06] <hendrixski> kylecasey, it's a pain because thereare a hundred guides and none of them have all the steps :-(
[03:06] <jagsUT> i need help
[03:06] <jagsUT> badly
[03:06] <wqeqwe> WHAT?
[03:06] <wqeqwe> Which one
[03:06] <owh> !enter
[03:06] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:06] <bruenig> BarronVon, that is what it sounds like, I am not big on the networking stuff
[03:06] <kylecasey> im using a radeon 9600 and when i try halflife 2 (i finally got it installed and can read it) the screen says unsupported hardware
[03:07] <bruenig> wqeqwe, this one ifconfig | sed 's/addr://' | awk '/Bcast/ {print $2}'
[03:07] <Zues_62> brue its mounted now and has a journel but doesnt show up in computer window
[03:07] <kylecasey> i have the ati control panel for linux and its showing my card as a pci when its an agp
[03:07] <NDAKOTA> does anyone have any idea what softMAC is? It appears in the updated kernel
[03:07] <wqeqwe> bruenig,  thank you
[03:07] <owh> waseem: The answer to my question was: "I used alien and dpkg."
[03:07] <hendrixski> kylecasey, have you already tried to install the ATI drivers?
[03:07] <jagsUT> "your home directory is listed as: '/home/bruno' but it does not appear to exist......
[03:07] <jagsUT> what is going on
[03:07] <kylecasey> yep
[03:07] <NDAKOTA> sorry I forgot to include the full name, it is ieee802.11softMAC
[03:07] <bruenig> Zues_62, what is this you keep saying about journal
[03:07] <Zues_62> bruening do i have to reset pc?
[03:07] <BarronVon> bruenig: i have used this laptop at at least 5 coffee shops and downloaded torrents under xp... it doesn't make sense that all 5 of those routers would need port forwarding
[03:07] <waseem> owh: honestly, i dont even know what im doing. but really theres no need to be condescending
[03:07] <ajmorris_> anyone know of an app that can move, re-size and join together linux partitions?
[03:07] <kylecasey> i used the big x86.run one
[03:07] <owh> waseem: Now, inside some directory somewhere you have a list of .deb files that you installed. Go to that directory.
[03:08] <Zues_62> oh it needs a journel to be an ext3 brue
[03:08] <tom47> i have an apt problem ..... seems to be an invalid gpg problem
[03:08] <Zues_62> i have that and i have mounted it but cant see it yet brue?
[03:08] <owh> waseem: I wasn't trying to be condescending. I was looking for an answer.
[03:08] <waseem> owh: what is the default directory that it would install it to?
[03:08] <bruenig> BarronVon, not big on networking, like I said. I have a dsl modem, that is it. Worked by default, opened the port using firestarter and that is the extent of my linux networking knowledge.
[03:08] <BarronVon> is there a command to see which ports are open at a given time?
[03:08] <kylecasey> i also checked in the system and it shows the card as a pci as well so im kind of lost as to why it is doing it?
[03:08] <NDAKOTA> alright, hyhmtolife, thanks for your help.
[03:08] <owh> waseem: The same place that you downloaded the .rpm to.
[03:08] <hendrixski> kylecasey, hhhhmmm, that may be above my head
[03:09] <waseem> owh: ok theyre both in the home file
[03:09] <bruenig> Zues_62, do "cat /etc/fstab" and pastebin the output
[03:09] <bruenig> !pastebin | Zues_62

[03:09] <jagsUT> is there anyone in here that can help me with my problem??  i have no idea what i have done.....i was changing my splash screen and now i cant get ubuntu to work properly
[03:09] <owh> waseem: How many .deb files do you have?
[03:09] <waseem> just one
[03:09] <kylecasey> well i followed most of the guides(youre right most are a big pain) and i setup the fgrlx or whatever it is with xorg
[03:09] <student_modnar> Hello, I was curious, does any one else have a problem of linux not booting (Debian\Ubuntu) when you have a external usb hard drive plugged in?
[03:10] <kylecasey> now seeing that my card is being detected wrong has me wondering what else has to be done
[03:10] <Dark-cky> hello
[03:10] <Dark-cky> any Cky fans here??
[03:10] <owh> waseem: Excellent. Type this command: dpkg -l|grep -i lime
[03:10] <hendrixski> kylecasey, I think that the detection of the card is a way of checking if the install was succesful, if I remember some of the guides correctly
[03:11] <Dark-cky> Cky!!!!
[03:11] <Dark-cky> come on
[03:11] <jagsUT> is there anyone in here that can help me with my problem??  i have no idea what i have done.....i was changing my splash screen and now i cant get ubuntu to work properly

[03:11] <hendrixski> kylecasey, like if it's still detecting the mesa drivers instead of the ATI drivers for the card...  did you remember to restrict the olddrivers?
[03:11] <cables> Has anyone experienced flickering animated cursors with the nVidia binary drivers? I also notice it when using VirtualBox's video drivers.
[03:12] <kylecasey> i dont know how to do that
[03:12] <waseem> owh: ok what do i do after that?
[03:12] <kylecasey> and i dont even know what/where those are

[03:13] <tyler> Anybody here know about DVD codecs?
[03:13] <hendrixski> kylecasey, linux_restricted_modules   .... I think it's in /etc/init.d/  it stop the previous driver from loading, so that you load the ATI one that you want
[03:13] <jagsUT> what does this mean?   user's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored
[03:13] <jagsUT> i can not long in anymore
[03:13] <kylecasey> and i type that into terminal?
[03:14] <kylecasey> and does this mean i have to do the ati config all over again?as well
[03:14] <Niriven> Is geared toward a free project in the future too?
[03:14] <hendrixski> kylecasey, hold on... I'll find a guide that shows you how.... give me 1.5 minutes :-P
[03:14] <kylecasey> ok hopefully they actually list the steps
[03:14] <kylecasey> thanks
[03:14] <Zues_62> brue good news it shows up
[03:14] <jagsUT> is there anyone in here that can help me with my problem??  i have no idea what i have done.....i was changing my splash screen and now i cant get ubuntu to work properly
[03:14] <metal03> I've done everything I could to make that .mkv video work...  but all I get is from VLC and it's only the sound!!  Anyone can help?

[03:19] <kylecasey> give me a few seconds to reopen the terminal and run the commands and find the error i got before
[03:19] <jagsUT> how can i scheck that?
[03:19] <hendrixski> kylecasey, yeah, the guide has two methods... use the second one ... 3: install from ati.com (latest version)
[03:19] <undeadelf527> jk found the wine stuff online
[03:19] <bjt32> ouch.. someone installing ati drivers? or what

[03:21] <abisen> my linux 32-bit dosent shows me my 4G (installed) RAM instead it shows 3G i just checked google.com and figured that a 32 bit kernel should support upto 4 GB
[03:21] <hendrixski> kylecasey, oh ... umm, yeah.  Then I may not be able to help you beyond that.  I'm still kind of a linux newb myself :-)
[03:21] <kylecasey> damn

[03:22] <bruenig> kylecasey, what is the problem
[03:22] <kylecasey> i cant get my ati card to work right with ubuntu
[03:22] <bruenig> !nvidia | kylecasey did you follow this?
[03:22] <ubotu> kylecasey did you follow this?: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:22] <kylecasey> im trying to play halflife 2 and have wine and all of that
[03:22] <kylecasey> yes but i get an error
[03:23] <bruenig> kylecasey, are you trying to install the .bin or what exactly
[03:23] <coolbone> anyone recomend an easy reading apache config walkthrough for newbies?
[03:23] <coolbone> im using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP and having questions about apachefonig part
[03:23] <tom47> i have a problem sudo apt-get update says 400 Bad Request (prev had what seemed gpg problems)

[03:24] <bruenig> kylecasey, yeah I have integrated garbage, so can't help you there
[03:24] <bruenig> kylecasey, perhaps try the envy script?
[03:24] <bruenig> !envy
[03:24] <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
[03:24] <kylecasey> envy?
[03:25] <hendrixski> kylecasey, I think easyUbuntu has an ATI install script... I haven't tried that, but it may work?
[03:25] <bruenig> kylecasey, yeah what ubotu just said

[03:28] <shadownet> greetings all, i know Feisty is coming out soon but just curious if there is any way to upgrade Gnome from 2.16 to 2.18 in Edgy?
[03:28] <bruenig> hendrixski, I assume you know of "vimtutor"
[03:28] <akari> No nwn then :(

[03:29] <Epic720> my raided SATA drives show up in fdisk under the system SFS, how do I mount them?
[03:29] <hendrixski> !vimtutor
[03:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vimtutor - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:29] <PRAEDO> the dmesg shows a lot of errors about reiserfs and udev
[03:29] <PRAEDO> how could i fix this?
[03:29] <bruenig> hendrixski, no in terminal do "vimtutor"
[03:29] <Malachi> Anyone have a copy of the MetaTracker-Nautilus integration deb for Edgy?
[03:30] <Epic720> can someone please help me mount my raided drives?
[03:30] <Sasa> hi all, I'm running Edgy and I was wondering what I need to do in order to re-arrange the boot sequence: I would like windows to be first in the list and Ubuntu second
[03:30] <hendrixski> bruenig, cool,  did not know that.   I went through the man pages a lot though... and I'm trying to get c++ intellisense working on it now
[03:30] <bruenig> Sasa, do gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list and cut and paste the entire windows entry above the ubuntu entry
[03:31] <JunK-Y> any reason evolution is saying my mail server "no route to host", while i go in a shell, i can ping it without any issue.
[03:31] <Sasa> bruenig, sorry I don't understand, can you please clarify

[03:31] <snarfer> PRAEDO: Paste
[03:32] <tom47> i have a problem sudo apt-get update says 400 Bad Request (prev had what seemed gpg problems)
[03:32] <wick2o> find / -name *.rar | xargs unrar command here
[03:32] <hendrixski> kylecasey, :-) I haven't used it yet, but heard good things
[03:32] <bruenig> Sasa, ok open the terminal, applications>accessories>terminal and do "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list"
[03:32] <jenda> gargh
[03:32] <bruenig> jenda, if you have them all in one directory just do, unrar e directory/*
[03:32] <kylecasey> ok before i tried getting it from another site with the sudo apt get thing and it didnt work thanks i was trying to get this
[03:33] <snarfer> Can anyone help with this:
[03:33] <bruenig> jenda, unless you mean they are in one directory and then in subdirectories of that directory too
[03:33] <snarfer> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/103130

[03:33] <Sasa> bruenig: thank you , I now have an open gedit screen
[03:33] <hendrixski> kylecasey, it's an install script, so it's supposed to type in all of the commands for you... I look forward to hearing how well it works :-)
[03:33] <Sasa> it's empty
[03:34] <bruenig> Sasa, check that command again, you may have mistyped it
[03:34] <Sasa> ok
[03:34] <bruenig> Sasa, oh I mistyped it
[03:34] <kylecasey> ok it does have something for ati and nvidia cards but its telling me it cant uninstall old components
[03:34] <bruenig> Sasa, close that out, and do "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[03:34] <kylecasey> would it work for me to just delete the .run for ati i have or what would be the best way to get it to install it for me?
[03:35] <NickGarvey> wow, I had to log files, that together added up to almost a gig
[03:35] <bruenig> kylecasey, yeah I feared that might happen, because you already tried to install, it doesn't work
[03:35] <NickGarvey> wow, I had two log files, that together added up to almost a gig*
[03:35] <kylecasey> great now what then?
[03:35] <PRAEDO> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13968
[03:35] <PRAEDO> please have a look
[03:35] <PRAEDO> any idea on how to fix that?
[03:35] <talon223> i'm just confirming something here: If i have integrated SiS graphics(crappy)...then it's normal for beryl or compiz to give me WSOD
[03:35] <Sasa> bruenig: thank you, it worked I have an open sheet now
[03:35] <talon223> right?
[03:35] <tonetheman> can anyone tell me where to look for information on sound problems with a satellite a135-2276 on fiest
[03:35] <tonetheman> y
[03:36] <heath> beryl and compiz are still alpha/beta stages
[03:36] <bruenig> Sasa, ok scroll down, there should be a windows entry that is five or six lines long perhaps, move that whole entry (all the lines) above the ubuntu entry in that file.
[03:36] <talon223> www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:36] <tonetheman> it used to work on 6.10
[03:36] <bruenig> talon223, #ubuntu-effects
[03:36] <talon223> search on there tonetheman
[03:36] <talon223> that or just google it
[03:36] <tonetheman> just anywhere... i am just trying to find something or maybe put in a bug
[03:36] <kylecasey> any ideas?
[03:36] <talon223> send in a bug report
[03:36] <tonetheman> if i boot off the live cd for 6.10 the sound works fine
[03:37] <talon223> mmm..report it anyways
[03:37] <talon223> even if you do find a fix
[03:37] <bruenig> tonetheman, if you are having problems with feisty, go to #ubuntu+1
[03:37] <bur[n] er_> anyone know if gparted is going to come back for Feisty Final?  the new partitioner in the beta sucks
[03:37] <tonetheman> ok
[03:37] <tonetheman> thanks i will do it
[03:37] <PRAEDO> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13968
[03:37] <AmaroqWolf> I'm trying to install a game under wine, and the installer requires me to check the second CD, which is an audio CD. When I eject the first and put in the second, the installer can't verify the CD. I think that the problem is that the second CD is an audio CD and Ubuntu isn't mounting it right...
[03:37] <PRAEDO> anyone please?
[03:37] <talon223> yeah, i thought that too burner
[03:37] <PRAEDO> my server isn't booting and i don't know the reason
[03:37] <talon223> i missed gparted when i updated
[03:37] <PRAEDO> please look at my paste
[03:37] <bruenig> !repeat | PRAEDO you already got away with two floods, don't push it
[03:37] <ubotu> PRAEDO you already got away with two floods, don't push it: 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
[03:37] <talon223> but #ubuntu+1 is a better spot for that
[03:37] <Sasa> bruenig: I just cut it and pasted it above all ubuntu entries, I'll reboot now and see if it works
[03:37] <Sasa> thank you!
[03:38] <oicu812> is ubuntu restricted extras package available still
[03:38] <talon223> !patience
[03:38] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[03:38] <bruenig> oicu812, that is a feisty package if it is a package at all, therefore #ubuntu+1 for that question
[03:38] <tonetheman> thanks for the help everyone!!!
[03:38] <talon223> lol...so how many people have you had to tell to go to ubuntu+1 so far?
[03:38] <man_id_unknown> Is anyone here familiar with Ajunta?
[03:39] <NickGarvey> !anyone
[03:39] <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?
[03:39] <Epic720> my raided SATA drives show up in fdisk under the system SFS, how do I mount them?
[03:39] <bruenig> talon223, it picks up seeing as we are 15 days away, but in the six months between releases, it is nearly none
[03:39] <kylecasey> bruenig hendrix any ideas on what i might try now?
[03:39] <bruenig> kylecasey, none here
[03:39] <ruben> Hi, what is the way to gro an XFS partition if I don't have a LVM? xfs_growfs /xfspartition -D 256 does not work for me :(
[03:39] <kylecasey> ah thanks for the help though
[03:40] <NickGarvey> ruben, try using the gparted live cd, or just the program gparted
[03:40] <hendrixski> kylecasey, it didn't work???
[03:40] <rawly> Hello, looked in website and couldn't find an answer to my problem, trying to run the live CD, boots up fine until it's time to show the gui, then the lcd screen just shows signal out of frequency?
[03:41] <kylecasey> no easyubuntu wont let me access the ati download
[03:41] <man_id_unknown> Excuse me, what is a good chat server?
[03:41] <PRAEDO> please
[03:41] <PRAEDO> anyone can help me?
[03:41] <PRAEDO> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13968
[03:41] <PRAEDO> look this please
[03:41] <man_id_unknown> Sorry, I meant, what is a good programming, chat server? ;)
[03:41] <Sasa> bruenig: that worked beautifully, thank you very much!
[03:42] <hendrixski> kylecasey, did you set up the gpg key?
[03:42] <kylecasey> and im trying to follow the guides you gave me again but somewhere weird is happening
[03:42] <Toma-> PRAEDO: youre using a live cd?
[03:42] <kylecasey> i think so
[03:42] <PRAEDO> no
[03:42] <PRAEDO> it's a remote server
[03:42] <PRAEDO> on rescue mode
[03:42] <PRAEDO> normal mode isn't booting
[03:42] <Sasa> another fast question (s): I understand there is a newer version of ubuntu out (I am running Edgy). Is there a simpler way to install it other than burning it to a CD and reinstalling it from scratch??
[03:43] <Toma-> PRAEDO: looks like an NTFS drive in it is looking pretty darn sick
[03:43] <hendrixski> kylecasey, have you posted on ubuntu forums? I may not know enough to help you, but I'm sure that someone there can.
[03:43] <PanzerMKZ> Sasa: do the distro update
[03:43] <Epic720> does ubuntu support drives under the filesystem SFS?
[03:43] <Marupa> is there any problem with 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop'? if I installed ubuntu rather than kubuntu?  or will everything just run fine?
[03:43] <talon223> http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/upgrade-ubuntu-edgy-to-feisty/
[03:43] <Sasa> Panzer: how is that done--through synaptic??
[03:43] <slvmchn> marupa, it'll work fine
[03:43] <talon223> check that link out
[03:43] <talon223> sasa
[03:43] <PanzerMKZ> yea
[03:43] <slvmchn> marupa, when you go to log in, there will be a "session" menu on the login screen
[03:43] <PanzerMKZ> check said link
[03:43] <Marupa> slvmchn, so I can choose either one, then?
[03:44] <slvmchn> marupa, so you can load into kubuntu, gnome, xubuntu, whatever
[03:44] <Epic720> how can I mount my SFS drives?
[03:44] <Toma-> PRAEDO: so what partition is the system installed on?
[03:44] <Marupa> slvmchn, Cool, thanks.
[03:44] <kylecasey> well ive been all over linux.org today and yesterday and so far only a few responses from other newbs like myself. so far i havent gotten very far and when i do the second line for that key the terminal just sits there
[03:44] <Sasa> can you actually upgrade the OS that way, or just applications within it?
[03:44] <slvmchn> kylecasey, can you be more specific?
[03:44] <Epic720> can anyone even see what I am typing?
[03:44] <slvmchn> epic720: yeah
[03:45] <Marupa> slvmchn, mostly I just want to try out both and see which I like better.  I love gnome, but I may as well try other stuff.
[03:45] <Marupa> slvmchn, which do you use?
[03:45] <Toma-> kylecasey: what are you doing?
[03:45] <Pelo> Epic720,  we see you
[03:45] <slvmchn> marupa: i started on gnome, tested xubuntu, but some programs acted funny in it, especially when i tried updating stuff
[03:45] <Epic720> does ubuntu support drives under the filesystem SFS? can anyone help me?
[03:45] <slvmchn> marupa: some might disagree with me, but once you find what you like, try installing that distro
[03:45] <hendrixski> kylecasey, :-( I'm sorry.  Wish I weren't a newb as well.  I had a similar set of problems lately with .vim, nobody could help me for days... and the people onthe #vim room were ant-newb, It can be frustrating I know
[03:45] <Pelo> Epic720,  let me check
[03:45] <Epic720> ty
[03:46] <slvmchn> marupa: you can install kde on top of ubuntu to test it out, but i'd recommend installing from the kubuntu discs after
[03:46] <talon223> everyone told me to go KDE, and I find gnome alot ...cleaner?
[03:46] <talon223> so it's all personal choice
[03:46] <kylecasey> ati card isnt working right and we've found out the mesa drivers are still there. i got easyubuntu but it wont let me download the drivers for the card because i already tried to do it from other sites
[03:46] <talon223> try each one out...
[03:46] <Toma-> talon223: well... use gnome?
[03:46] <Marupa> slvmchn, The only thing I don't like about gnome so far is that the icons are just a touch too large. :3
[03:46] <slvmchn> marupa: only because putting xubuntu on this on top of gnome, it acted real funny with certain things, i installed it on another machine from the discs and it worked better
[03:46] <slvmchn> marupa: i <think> you can change that but i'm not too sure
[03:46] <talon223> it's not hard to undo the kubuntu installation and put it back to gnome
[03:46] <slvmchn> check your nautilus settings
[03:46] <kylecasey> and heres the second code for the key for easyubuntu sudo apt-key add - this is the one the terminal just sits with
[03:46] <FunnyLookinHat> !easyubuntu
[03:46] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[03:46] <FunnyLookinHat> Yea...  don't use it.
[03:47] <Marupa> slvmchn, I mean the panel icons.
[03:47] <talon223> well kde has really huge icons
[03:47] <slvmchn> ah marupa, you can change that too
[03:47] <kylecasey> thanks hendrix i mean you been more help than the forums i spent days on
[03:47] <slvmchn> marupa, if you change the size of the panel, it'll automatically size the icon
[03:47] <Pelo> Epic720,  sorry I don't see  sfs in the list   adfs,  affs,  autofs,  coda, coherent, cramfs, devpts, efs, ext,
[03:47] <Pelo>               ext2, ext3, hfs, hpfs, iso9660, jfs, minix, msdos,  ncpfs,  nfs,

[03:47] <Toma-> pasterific
[03:47] <slvmchn> marupa: nice :-D me too, i run 1280x1024 with tiny icons
[03:47] <slvmchn> my girlfriend thinks i'm nuts
[03:47] <Epic720> thank you
[03:48] <slvmchn> and 1280x1024 has spoiled me, at work i do excel all day and i changed from 1024x768 because everything's so damn big
[03:48] <brunoUT> tom
[03:48] <brunoUT> i am back
[03:48] <kylecasey> toma slvmchn any ideas or no?
[03:48] <brunoUT> my gay wireless kicked me
[03:48] <Marupa> slvmchn, same. 1920x hates my monitor.
[03:48] <brunoUT> go back to #bruno
[03:48] <Sasa> I get the following error message when trying to update using synaptic: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[03:48] <Pelo> Epic720,  you might want to check the forum out to see if there is an alternate way to get that file system mounted
[03:48] <Epic720> thank you, I will
[03:48] <brunoUT> tom47 are u still here?
[03:48] <slvmchn> sorry kylecasey, i don't know about easyubuntu
[03:48] <Toma-> kylecasey: drivers can co-exist...
[03:48] <kylecasey> sasa i believe you go to terminal and it will start with that command
[03:49] <Marupa> slvmchn, how do you change the panel icon size though?
[03:49] <xenos> HI, I'm trying to extract a tar.gz file to my root directory, what would be the syntax for that?
[03:49] <talon223> haha...in linux, wireless is at the bottom of the food chain most of the time
[03:49] <kylecasey> so how would i get rid of the mesa drivers?
[03:49] <slvmchn> right click the panel and select properties
[03:49] <tom47> brunoUT yes my irc client aborted as well
[03:49] <slvmchn> just change the size of the panel
[03:49] <slvmchn> if you make it smaller the icons will change size
[03:49] <slvmchn> you mean the panel up top right?
[03:49] <slvmchn> with the quicklaunchers for your programs
[03:49] <Toma-> kylecasey: you dont need to... but you can remove the packages it comes in. sysnaptic > search > mesa
[03:49] <Toma-> *synaptic
[03:49] <slvmchn> i shrank mine a bit but careful, it's touchy, if you shrink it too much the icons get TINY
[03:49] <Ltar> Can anyone refer me to a NES emulator other than fceu/gfce? I am unable to configure the controls in said emulator, attempting to do so brings up a useless, frozen title bar that must be forcekilled.
[03:49] <Ltar> glitchy emulator is glitchy
[03:49] <slvmchn> ltar: check the repos?
[03:50] <brunoUT> yo tom
[03:50] <tom47> brunoUT i suggest you ask how to reinstate a moved /home here
[03:50] <xenos> HI, I'm trying to extract a tar.gz file to my root directory, what would be the syntax for that?
[03:50] <brunoUT> ok
[03:50] <brunoUT> yo peeps
[03:50] <kylecasey> ok more info the ati control center shows the card as a pci and it shows the bus setting at 0 Toma
[03:50] <Marupa> slvmchn, I have the size at minimum.

[03:50] <brunoUT> so i can log back in?
[03:50] <Toma-> kylecasey: super

[03:50] <Marupa> slvmchn, they're still too big XD
[03:50] <Sasa> I received the following message when I tried to paste command to enable upadate: dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[03:50] <Ltar> slvmchn: the apt-get version of gfce is not even up to date, Nothing to be found on the ubuntu forums except fceu- I seem to be the only person complaining of the controller issue
[03:50] <kylecasey> what is that super bad?
[03:50] <slvmchn> lol don't know what to tell you marupa, you have superman eyes
[03:51] <Marupa> slvmchn, lol.  Like I said, I have good eyes. XD
[03:51] <kylecasey> sasa you try the command you had copied here?
[03:51] <slvmchn> ltar: i don't know, i never really play nes roms, i had a SNES period though
[03:51] <Toma-> kylecasey: no, video cards are basically pci
[03:51] <xenos> Please can someone tell me how to extract a tar.gz file to a directory through terminal?
[03:51] <brunoUT> tom no one answers me in here
[03:51] <slvmchn> what's gfce?
[03:51] <brunoUT> i need help reistating /home
[03:51] <Sasa> kylecasey: I tried this one: dpkg --configure -a
[03:51] <Pelo> xenos,  hold on
[03:51] <kylecasey> well how would i fix the bus setting when it's really a 4x/8x card
[03:51] <xenos> Pelo: thanks
[03:52] <kylecasey> so it worked?
[03:52] <Toma-> brunoUT: boot into rescue mode and use mv to move it back
[03:52] <talon223> this isn't really a support question, but does anyone have a recommendation on an icon set for gnome2?
[03:52] <Sasa> no, I got the "not a superuser" error message
[03:52] <Marupa> Anyone else know how to alter the icon sizes?
[03:52] <brunoUT> what are the exact commands
[03:52] <brunoUT> i am very new to ubuntu
[03:52] <gortba> Hi. This might be a stupid question--but how do I burn an .iso in Ubuntu?
[03:52] <smo> use gion icon set it s right
[03:52] <Marupa> gortba, k3b
[03:52] <smo> gnome-look.org
[03:52] <Toma-> kylecasey: the whole AGP business is handled by the PCI section of the kernel. its no issue and it'll be running just fine
[03:53] <dewprism> no such thing as stupid question
[03:53] <Marupa> gortba, you can also right click it and hit 'burn to disk'
[03:53] <gortba> Thanks Marupa
[03:53] <gaspipe1> hey all
[03:53] <Ademan_away> how might one convert a *.avi file to an mpg for burning to a vcd?
[03:53] <Pelo> xenos, tar -xvzf <filename>.tar.gz
[03:53] <hendrixski> gortba, I just right click on an icon of the .iso and there's an option to burn to CD... and it works
[03:53] <kylecasey> sasa run it in X terminal
[03:53] <xenos> how would I send the file to root?
[03:53] <Toma-> Ademan_away: tovid or mandvd are exellent applications
[03:53] <Marupa> Anyone here use a custom kernel?
[03:53] <Sasa> kylecasey: where can I find the xterminal?
[03:53] <brunoUT> damnit i died again
[03:53] <brunoUT> what are the move commands?
[03:53] <brunoUT> i missed them
[03:53] <Ademan_away> Toma-: thanks, any reccomendations between the two?
[03:53] <kylecasey> debian apps system
[03:54] <heath> bruno: mv
[03:54] <kylecasey> sasa
[03:54] <talon223> marupa
[03:54] <talon223> if you change the menu size
[03:54] <Toma-> Ademan_away: i made my own scripts for making DVDs :)
[03:54] <talon223> in properties
[03:54] <talon223> it should scale everything else
[03:54] <Toma-> Ademan_away: but i used ToVid prior
[03:54] <brunoUT> i know that much
[03:54] <PhewL> so if i have 3 drives (hdb, hdc, and hdd) and hdc has ubuntu on it, what is hdd's drive number i use in grub so i can load it
[03:54] <Ademan_away> Toma-: lol, well thanks
[03:54] <brunoUT> but how do i move from one location to another?
[03:54] <xenos> Pelo: Do you know how to make it so it extracts to root?
[03:54] <Marupa> talon223, They're already at 23.  That's too big XD
[03:55] <heath> bruno: type "man mv" in terminal
[03:55] <kylecasey> ok toma but when i start steam it gives me the error about hardware not supporting minimum requirements and all and it says "your driver" and nothing is there
[03:55] <_7E6h> howdy =)  can any of you advise me on an easy way to rip stuff that is playing thru my audio (speakers) to mp3?  using edgy,  i am, and i have plenty'o'en/de coders installed... just dunno what exactly would be right for pulling from current audio stream or whatever
[03:55] <talon223> lmao...
[03:55] <Pelo> xenos,  you mean to /root ?
[03:55] <Ademan_away> brunoUT: cd NewDirectory
[03:55] <brunoUT> and thats it?
[03:55] <Ademan_away> you mean move "yourself" right?
[03:55] <Pelo> xenos,   man tar
[03:55] <Marupa> talon223, So yeah...any OTHER way to make it smaller?
[03:55] <Toma-> kylecasey: thatll be wine/steam having a cry. does your video card meet the minimum requirements?
[03:55] <Ademan_away> yeah, and to go back one directory you cd ../
[03:55] <PCGenie> hello, how can I trace errors on my firefox browser? (dappy m6.06 64 bit)
[03:55] <brunoUT> can someone just come to #bruno so i can get these commands?
[03:55] <xenos> Pelo: I mean so that the tar goes to the dir "/"
[03:55] <kylecasey> yeah
[03:56] <Sasa> where can I find the Xterminal, all I see is "Terminal" under Applications>Accesories
[03:56] <kylecasey> 128 mb of ram and its 4x/8x
[03:56] <megafauna> Hi, how do I fix a messed up install? I can't reinstall the package as it tells me that I have "Dependancy Errors"
[03:56] <brunoUT> someone please
[03:56] <Pelo> xenos,  why do you want to extract something there ?
[03:56] <Pelo> xenos,  extract it and move it afterwards
[03:56] <xenos> Pelo: it is a download that requires to go to that folder
[03:56] <kylecasey> ive played farcry with it on winblows before so i think it should work fine(am i wrong)?
[03:56] <Ademan_away> brunoUT: http://www.ss64.com/bash/   it's all there
[03:56] <Marupa> also, is there any way to have multiple window lists but not have the same window list in each panel?  Sorta like Windows' tray when it's doubled up.
[03:57] <xenos> Pelo: I cant, it says I dont have permission
[03:57] <Pelo> xenos,  sudo tar -xvzf <filename>.tar.gz  /
[03:57] <xenos> ok
[03:57] <Pelo> no garranties
[03:57] <kylecasey> sasa do apps debian apps system
[03:57] <Ademan_away> Marupa: are you wanting to just have your window list be 2 windows "thick" ? because if you resize your panel it should do that automatically
[03:57] <xenos> tar: /: Not found in archive
[03:57] <xenos> tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[03:58] <Toma-> kylecasey: there might be some sort of bypass for steam to run with "lesser" cards.
[03:58] <Marupa> Ademan_away, so that the windows are 'stacked' on top of each other...hard to explain, I guess.
[03:58] <Pelo> xenos,   jsut extract it and then move it     sudo mv /patth/   /
[03:58] <squiggie> can anyone tell me how to start vnc commandline?
[03:58] <Sasa> kylecasey: I'm runing Edgy--> you may be over-estimating my abilities
[03:58] <xenos> ok
[03:58] <Pelo> xenos,  http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php
[03:58] <talon223> squiggie
[03:58] <talon223> rephrase your question
[03:59] <kylecasey> no i have edgy as well (6.10 right) im guessing you dont have the debian section
[03:59] <Ademan_away> Marupa: like in this screenshot? http://kde.linux.org.ba/screenshot.png
[03:59] <dewprism> my turn! how do i get .avi's .mid's and that kinda stuff to work... is there a way besides wine?
[03:59] <squiggie> talon223, I don't have physical access to the box but ssh is working. I need to start the vncserver so I can remote in.
[03:59] <Marupa> Ademan_away, yes.  But I'm in Gnome.
[03:59] <kylecasey> for me its the second item in applications (debian) then applications again then system then X terminal
[03:59] <talon223> mmm..that's why i don't like kde, right there...
[03:59] <talon223> clutter
[03:59] <Ademan_away> Marupa, you still should be able to just make your panel thicker
[04:00] <Toma-> !restrictedformats | dewprism
[04:00] <ubotu> dewprism: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:00] <Ademan_away> Marupa: just right click on the panel and hit properties, size should be in there
[04:00] <heath> squiggie: you want to start vnc client or vnc server?
[04:00] <hendrixski> just thought I'd share my excitement
[04:00] <talon223> yea, but he's got it as far as it goes
[04:00] <kylecasey> toma thanks so far
[04:00] <Marupa> Ademan_away, Except that makes my icons HUUUUGE.
[04:00] <squiggie> heath, vncserver
[04:00] <talon223> he wants the ICONS to be smaller
[04:00] <heath> oh
[04:00] <Pelo> hendrixski,   we all have our special glasses on , we can all read smallcap
[04:00] <talon223> i'm still looking at a way, because i'm kind of interested myself...i'll let you know what i find marupa
[04:00] <Marupa> Icons small, window list doubled.
[04:00] <Ademan_away> Marupa: you may be out of luck, sorry
[04:00] <Sasa> kylecasey, no, I don't have that
[04:00] <kylecasey> let me go back to the guide i have then throw the error i get up here maybe youll know what i can do from there
[04:01] <dewprism> ubotu, ty *^.^*
[04:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ty *^.^* - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:01] <hendrixski> Pelo, I know... just... I've been trying to get this for a while now... on and off for a week
[04:01] <dewprism> ahahah
[04:01] <Ademan_away> hendrixski: i'm excited for you, mind sharing how you did it?
[04:01] <dewprism> i love that
[04:01] <kylecasey> sasa you might try "su -"
[04:01] <hendrixski> Ademan_away, sure
[04:01] <kylecasey> and just enter the password to start the computer
[04:01] <Marupa> Well, if anyone finds a way to do it, please let me know?
[04:01] <Sasa> kyle: what is the complete command
[04:01] <Sasa> ?
[04:02] <Ademan_away> hendrixski: i've been kinda on and off about wanting intellisense (and really missing it from my days on windows)
[04:02] <kylecasey> for what sasa?
[04:02] <firefoxman> !google
[04:02] <ubotu> Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[04:02] <Pelo> g'night folks
[04:02] <Ademan_away> night
[04:02] <Sasa> kyle: for this comand:dpkg --configure -a
[04:02] <firefoxman> !googlebot
[04:02] <hendrixski> Ademan_away, I thought that vim 7 had it built in... which it sort of does, but you have to tinker with stuff
[04:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about googlebot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:02] <kylecasey> exactly that but you have to be logged in as superuser
[04:02] <tom47> brunoUT still there?
[04:02] <hendrixski> Ademan_away, so I finally got someone to answer a post on ubuntu forums abut it... and I'll send you the link... it's really easy
[04:03] <Ademan_away> hendrixski: thanks, did you have to use a plugin for it?
[04:03] <Sasa> kylecasey: how do I log in as a superuser...I thought I already wasa
[04:03] <Sasa> was
[04:03] <emach> anyone know how I can go back to the last version of firefox?  this new one runs like a 3 legged turtle
[04:03] <PhewL> if i got 3 drives (hdb, hdc, and hdd) as harddrives and im currently running off of hdc, in grub it calls that hd(0,0) what number would the drive hdd be?
[04:03] <squiggie> heath, did you reply with a way? I missed it if you did
[04:03] <kylecasey> just do "su -"then put this in dpkg --configure -a
[04:03] <Marupa> also...Dunno if this is totally off topic or not, but anyone know of any good Gnome themes?
[04:03] <Ademan_away> emach: i do believe you can force an older version with apt
[04:03] <hendrixski> Ademan_away, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=398855
[04:03] <hendrixski> Ademan_away, yes, a script
[04:04] <Ademan_away> Marupa: murrina is a great theme engine, and there are lots of cool themes for it
[04:04] <Ademan_away> thanks a lot hendrixski
[04:04] <hendrixski> Ademan_away, I guess that's the vim equivalent of a plugin
[04:04] <talon223> and were you talking about kind of like a start bar for gnome marupa?
[04:04] <talon223> because that's easy to do
[04:04] <emach> I think the newer not always being better definitely applies here
[04:04] <Marupa> talon223, no.  doubled up window lists.
[04:04] <hendrixski> Ademan_away, and there's a ton of other text completiong available for vim vimdocs.sourceforge.net :-)
[04:04] <Marupa> Ademan_away, link?
[04:04] <jenda> bruenig: hmm, it doesn't work that way (unrar *.rar)
[04:05] <jenda> bruenig: it tells me 'no files to extract'
[04:05] <kylecasey> bruenig welcome back
[04:05] <emach> thanks Ademan_away
[04:05] <Ademan_away> Marupa: well technically it's a gtk+ theme, but i'll link you anyways
[04:05] <ericros1> is anyone else having trouble with cedega after the last update on amd64 edgy?
[04:05] <kylecasey> thanks for the help you did have
[04:05] <emach> I'll check it out
[04:05] <ericros1> its crashing my x server
[04:05] <bruenig> jenda, give me a breakdown of what this directory looks like
[04:05] <jenda> bruenig: full of blah.rar
[04:05] <jenda> nothing else
[04:05] <bruenig> jenda, unrar e *.rar
[04:05] <jenda> each .rar has files in it
[04:05] <Marupa> brb, gonna try out KDE....
[04:05] <jenda> that doesn't work
[04:06] <jenda> bruenig: and yet unrar e bleh.rar works for each
[04:06] <Sasa> can anyone please help: I cannot run "dpkg --configure -a" command in the terminal. I am trying to do this so I can fix the synaptic update manager. I receive an error message stating: "dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[04:06] <Sasa> "
[04:06] <Ademan_away> Marupa: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Murrine+GTK2+Cairo+Engine?content=42755
[04:06] <bruenig> jenda, hmm perhaps unrar doesn't support wild cards
[04:06] <heath> sasa: do sudo dpkg....
[04:06] <talon223> squiggie, i don't know if anyone answered you, ...but you would just "sudo vncserver"
[04:06] <bruenig> jenda, you can do find /directory -iname *.rar -exec unrar e {} \;
[04:06] <kylecasey> toma when i put this into terminal it does nothing just goes back to root........ "mkdir -p /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri"  does this mean i dont have the dri?
[04:07] <kylecasey> whatever that is
[04:07] <squiggie> talon223, that says command not found
[04:07] <slvmchn> i know this isn't really an ubuntu-specific question, but does anyone know if the openoffice version of excel can open microsoft excel documents?
[04:07] <bruenig> kylecasey, it means the command was successful and worked
[04:07] <jenda> bruenig: is that exactly it, or are there placeholders? (/directory?)
[04:07] <bruenig> kylecasey, all that command is meant to do is create it
[04:07] <ericros1> I'm getting the following in my Xorg log: Client 2 rejected from local host
[04:07] <bruenig> jenda, /directory is the directory, everything else is exact
[04:07] <ericros1> never seen that before
[04:07] <Marupa> well, kde is definitely....happier looking XD
[04:07] <Toma-> kylecasey: like bruenig said, that will make a directory. nothing more, nothing less.
[04:08] <talon223> squiggie, what version of vnc are you using?
[04:08] <kylecasey> ok thanks
[04:08] <jenda> bruenig: find ./ -iname *.rar -exec unrar e {} \;
[04:08] <Sasa> that seemsed to work: what does "sudo" do?
[04:08] <jenda> find: paths must precede expression
[04:08] <squiggie> talon223, 3.3.7
[04:08] <heath> sasa: it runs the following command as super user
[04:08] <obat> hello, I have a friend who was moveing files with konqueror. The disk ended up being full. Now most of the files are in one location or the other, but not all
[04:08] <jenda> Sasa: does the command after it with 'root' priviledges
[04:08] <obat> is there any way to recover the other files?
[04:08] <bruenig> jenda, if you are already in the directory try doing find . -iname *.rar -exec unrar e {} \:
[04:09] <jenda> bruenig: same
[04:09] <bruenig> jenda, that is a semicolon on the end, by the way
[04:09] <Sasa> thank you jenda
[04:09] <heath> bruenig: a semicolon
[04:09] <jenda> ah
[04:09] <jenda> bruenig: still the same
[04:09] <Sasa> can Ubuntu run alongside Vista ok?
[04:09] <jenda> Sasa: should
[04:09] <Sasa> you're great, thank you again
[04:10] <Marupa> well, gnome is definitely better.
[04:10] <Sasa> one last quick thing
[04:10] <Marupa> brb
[04:10] <bruenig> jenda, hmmmm, maybe execdir find. -iname *.rar -execdir unrar e {} \;
[04:10] <Sasa> stupid question actually
[04:10] <DualCortex> eh... how do I minimize xchat to the notification area? ;)
[04:10] <Sasa> where can I find strategy for playing "Tetravex" game, it's driving me crazy
[04:10] <obat> anyone? half moved files?
[04:10] <jenda> bruenig: bah, it can be done with a right-click :D
[04:11] <jenda> bruenig: thanks anyway.
[04:11] <Marupa> I'm definitely more at home in gnome...
[04:11] <bruenig> jenda, I will try to figure this out though
[04:11] <Ademan_away> anyone use dvd::rip?  because it's bitching about a rar-2.80 command not being present, shouldnt it be like unrar or something?
[04:11] <Ademan_away> Marupa: ah, i got the link if you're interested
[04:11] <jenda> bruenig: I will try sleeping now ;)
[04:11] <Marupa> Ademan_away, will it work with ghome?
[04:11] <Marupa> gnome*
[04:11] <Ademan_away>  Marupa: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Murrine+GTK2+Cairo+Engine?content=42755
[04:11] <Ademan_away> yep
[04:11] <Marupa> awesome
[04:12] <Ademan_away> Marupa: http://murrine.netsons.org/?q=node/8/release  adn there's this for apparently making your own themes using the murrina engine
[04:12] <PhewL> if i got 3 drives (hdb, hdc, and hdd) as harddrives and im currently running off of hdc, in grub it calls that hd(0,0) what number would the drive hdd be?
[04:12] <Marupa> Ademan_away, er, how do I install it?
[04:12] <BarronVon> anyone know a way to scan the ports on wifi routers to see which are open?
[04:12] <Ademan_away> Marupa: one thing that always confused me was that, there are theme ENGINEs, and then themes, which are basically color settings for the engines
[04:13] <Ademan_away> Marupa: it's actually in apt
[04:13] <xenos> can someone tell me a way that I can run windows 2000 with Ubuntu already installed?
[04:13] <kylecasey> ok guys another dumb question on my part what is libgl and what does "libGL error: XF86DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable failed" mean
[04:13] <Marupa> Ademan_away, I tried finding it but couldn't
[04:13] <talon223> xenos, create a new partition with gparted
[04:13] <xenos> thanks
[04:13] <talon223> then load up the cd
[04:13] <Ademan_away> Marupa: it's gtk2-engines-murrine
[04:13] <talon223> and tell it to install to that partition
[04:14] <xenos> ok
[04:14] <Marupa> Ademan_away, maybe you're using some speical apt sources.
[04:14] <Ademan_away> apparently murrina is multiple murrine, and thats why themes are called murrina, and the engine is called murrine i guess
[04:14] <hendrixski> kylecasey, Hope that ATI stuff ends up working out for you :-)
[04:14] <Ademan_away> Marupa: hrm lemme check what repository it's comming from
[04:14] <hendrixski> bye
[04:14] <bruenig> how do you create a rar
[04:14] <BarronVon> anyone have a clue as to why my windows box runs bittorrent clients just fine but my ubuntu doesn't?
[04:14] <Marupa> bruenig, 'man rar'
[04:14] <kylecasey> hendrix nothing as of yet but thanks
[04:14] <noppe> which log contains whether a daemon failed to start during booting?
[04:14] <bruenig> Marupa, yeah I looked through that
[04:15] <Ademan_away> Marupa: the "malteo" repository
[04:15] <bruenig> Marupa, I see that rar a should add a file
[04:15] <talon223> Marupa, btw, use apt-get to install "brightside"
[04:15] <talon223> that'll make your experience alot nicer XD
[04:15] <bruenig> Marupa, but there exists no rar to add it to
[04:15] <SeveredCross> bruenig, if you install the rar package, the Archive Manager can make a new RAR for you I think
[04:15] <Marupa> bruenig, you have to specify a new file.
[04:15] <emach> anyone know what could have caused my browsers to take 1-2 minutes to resolve a host?  thought it was just the new firefox but opera is doing it too..
[04:15] <Marupa> Ademan_away, full list?
[04:15] <bruenig> Marupa, can you give an example perhaps
[04:16] <bruenig> rar's switch list is like mencoder almost
[04:16] <squiggie> talon223, ok, I've got the vncserver service running now, but I still can't connect. I know there are a thousand network reasons that might not let me connect, but besidees them, is there anything on the system that would prevent me from getting in like a firewall or something?
[04:16] <Ademan_away> Marupa: deb http://malteo.homelinux.net edgy-malteo all
[04:17] <kylecasey> toma im gonna uninstall the mesa drivers and then retry the ati .run again
[04:17] <talon223> are you on the same network as the vncserver?
[04:17] <Marupa> Ademan_away, thanks.
[04:17] <Sasa> I know this may be the most light-hearted question of the evening: where can I find a guide on how to play "Tetravex" game that came with my Ubuntu installation
[04:17] <Sasa> ?
[04:17] <squiggie> talon223, yes
[04:17] <talon223> LMAO :)
[04:17] <Hypnotic> Anyone have any luck setting up F@H?
[04:17] <Toma-> kylecasey: ok. i suspect it wont solve your steam issue tho
[04:17] <bruenig> rar a -s whatever.rar apparently does it
[04:17] <Hypnotic> I am follding the scripts and can't it to do anything
[04:17] <Marupa> Ademan_away, Connection refused.
[04:18] <Sasa> when I say "Guide" I mean mathematical way of analyzing data there
[04:18] <Ademan_away> Marupa: hrm, i did get it a long time ago, maybe it's down, lemme see if there's a mirror
[04:18] <troggshow> Hello?
[04:18] <heath> How do I "trust" an apt source?
[04:18] <Ademan_away> heath: you have to add the gpg key
[04:18] <Marupa> heath look for a gpg key
[04:18] <Ademan_away> which imho is more of a pain in the ass than it's worth
[04:18] <talon223> squiggie, you should be able to connect
[04:18] <heath> hehe yeah i'll bet
[04:18] <talon223> what viewer are you using
[04:18] <heath> thanks guys
[04:18] <Marupa> Ademan_away, thanks a bunch.
[04:18] <troggshow> IS there a waiting order for questions?
[04:19] <Marupa> troggshow, no.
[04:19] <Marupa> troggshow, FCFS, but not all of us may know the answer.
[04:19] <troggshow> is there an easy upgrade from edgy fit to feisty fawn?
[04:19] <squiggie> talon223, from my laptop in my living room, I get a failed to connect to serever error
[04:19] <PersonA> Is there a way to upgrade from edbuntu 6.06 to 6.10 Edgy ? Other then formatting and re-installing from scratch ??
[04:19] <atlantia> hm.. getting error -71 "device not accepting address" when trying to mount an MP3 player that presents itsefl as a mass storage device
[04:19] <Marupa> PersonA, Yes.  update-manager -c
[04:19] <doug__> hello, trying to set Pan to be able to send mail.  Running Edgy...
[04:20] <talon223> yea, troggshow
[04:20] <PersonA> Thank you Marupa
[04:20] <atlantia> remove ehci-hcd module (usb 1.1 for now)
[04:20] <talon223> http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/03/upgrade-ubuntu-610-edgy-eft-to-ubuntu.html
[04:20] <atlantia> still getting errors, although after removing the module the situation has improved
[04:20] <troggshow> see, this is why i'm loving linux
[04:20] <atlantia> have found a TON of forum threads, kernel bugs, and gripes about this issue with other devices
[04:20] <Ademan_away> Marupa: i don't think there's a mirror, but http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=239378   has the package
[04:20] <PersonA> Even better .. thanks a bunch for the link !
[04:20] <atlantia> but no answers
[04:21] <atlantia> can't someone help?
[04:21] <Marupa> atlantia, what was the question?
[04:21] <Aldanon27> anyone heard news about x-fi sound blasters? the drivers are suppose to be out anytime
[04:21] <squiggie> talon223, do you know that the process name runs under?
[04:21] <kylecasey> hey toma im in synaptic and ive found these files "libgl1-mesa-dri" and when i go to remove it it says items to be removed are ubuntu desktop and xorg (not the thing to do huh?)
[04:22] <Ademan_away> Marupa: ah, there's apparently a different repository i think, gimme a second
[04:22] <Marupa> Ademan_away, sure.
[04:22] <atlantia> Marupa: getting error -71 "device not accepting address" when trying to mount an MP3 player that presents itself as a mass storage device, and I have modprobe -r ehci-hcd (USB 2.0 extended) module for now, which made the situation better (device says "connected, not "Connecting".. been searching everywhere
[04:23] <bruenig> I do "find / -iname *firefox" and find goes to work getting all the matches. I do "find / -iname *rar" and find gives me find: paths must precede expression
[04:23] <Marupa> atlantia, tried disabling legacy USB in bios?
[04:23] <atlantia> Marupa, lsusb shows device hardware address, (although no identifier)
[04:23] <whta> !iso
[04:23] <ubotu> 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.
[04:23] <Aldanon27> anyone else here dying for x-fi soundblaster support? hehe
[04:23] <talon223> atlantia, it's not MTP is it?
[04:23] <atlantia> Marupa, the device is a 1.1 USB drive
[04:23] <Marupa> atlantia, I had a similar problem with my USB2.0 devices until I disabled legacy support in bios.
[04:23] <Marupa> atlantia, it still may help.
[04:23] <atlantia> Marupa, will reboot and try
[04:24] <atlantia> talon223, AFAIK no, it is a FAT32 drive when presented to a (cough) windows machine
[04:24] <doug__> Anyone know how to set Pan newsreader to be able to send mail?
[04:24] <atlantia> ok brb reboot and change bios if possible
[04:24] <kylecasey> gonna reboot be back in a few
[04:24] <talon223> then probably not..
[04:24] <talon223> try what he said
[04:25] <Toma-> kylecasey: theyre probably meta-packages.
[04:25] <Marupa> my tablet nor my USB video encoder would work until I disabled it.
[04:25] <Ademan_away> Marupa: murrine's homepage http://cimi.netsons.org/pages/murrine/download.php   has a download, but apparently it's in universe in fiesty, which i guess you coudl get through fiesty-backports
[04:25] <kylecasey> so it wouldnt be a good idea to delete them would it?
[04:25] <Marupa> Ademan_away, you're on feisty, then?
[04:26] <Ademan_away> Marupa: no, it just says that on the download page below the ubuntu package
[04:26] <Marupa> Ademan_away, ahh
[04:26] <Ademan_away> Marupa: actually i THINK i've got backports, and no murrine through universe, so maybe it's not in backports
[04:26] <BarronVon> what is the easiest way to open ports which might be firewalled?
[04:26] <dewprism> can someone tell me how to find out what linux uses as a home directory or something? im trying to use wine and i need to run things.... so in terminal i gotta type wine some/kind/of/directory.exe
[04:27] <ant-> BarronVon : firestarter
[04:27] <Ademan_away> dewprism: it uses /home/YourUser/   as a home directory
[04:27] <Marupa> Ademan_away, Ahh, gotta love it when gdebi is satisfied.
[04:27] <kylecasey> be back
[04:27] <dewprism> ty ill try
[04:27] <BarronVon> ant- doh i tried it already i guess i am too dumb to use it
[04:27] <kitche> dewey: wine /home/YourUser/ win puts fiels in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files usually
[04:28] <Marupa> Ademan_away, also get the configurator?
[04:28] <ant-> BarronVon : firestarter is as easy as it gets
[04:28] <kitche> dewey: so you would wine ~/.wine/drive/Program\ Files/Xfire/xfire.exe for xfire
[04:28] <salty> what is a good cd burner for audio
[04:28] <BarronVon> ant-: I'll try it aain thx
[04:29] <Marupa> salty, k3b is good
[04:29] <dewprism> i gotta use ~/.wine/?
[04:29] <SurfnKid> anyone know a good signature/watermark proggy for batching on jpgs?
[04:29] <Marupa> salty, Serpentine is good too.
[04:29] <Ademan_away> Marupa: i dunno, it might be nice, and here's the configurator's homepage if youre interested http://murrine.netsons.org/?q=node/8
[04:29] <kitche> dewprism: that is where wine puts programs it's ~/.wine/drive_c/program\ Files\ usually
[04:29] <doug__> Any Pan users here?
[04:30] <salty> Marupa ... do you have to have kde installed for k3b...serpentine and gnomebaker aren't working
[04:30] <ant-> BarronVon : make sure your outbound traffic policy is 'permissave by default'
[04:30] <Marupa> salty, no.
[04:30] <ant-> s/permissave/permissive
[04:30] <dewprism> think i get it... ty ill try to see if i can get it ^.^
[04:30] <salty> ok...i'll try it thnx
[04:30] <BarronVon> ant-: thanks i will check into that I am reinstalling firestarter now
[04:30] <kitche> salty: k3bv just needs kde libs and I think kdebase but not sure about that anymore
[04:31] <vanberge> anybody want to recommend a good security #?
[04:31] <dave_abrahams> Anyone know whether we can count on the good people of ubuntu to update fglrx in feisty to the very latest soon?
[04:31] <snarfer> ##crypto?
[04:31] <ant-> BarronVon : if you cant figure it out at first, disable it so you can get the stuff done you need to get done.
[04:31] <salty> ok... i'm getting it now
[04:31] <BarronVon> ant-: kk thanks
[04:31] <talon223> Marupa, my icons just became ALOT smaller
[04:31] <Toma-> vanberge: what matters of security?
[04:31] <talon223> i don't know if it's because i changed my themes
[04:31] <talon223> to a custom kind
[04:32] <vanberge> Toma-, pen testing... tools like metasploit, nessus.
[04:32] <talon223> or because i added a file to my home folder to test something
[04:32] <talon223> but they're about 2 cm now
[04:32] <atlantia> Marupa, well no luck.. no BIOS setting for USB device,.. ASUS doesn't offer a world of BIOS options
[04:32] <bruenig> talon223, not the latter
[04:32] <vanberge> Toma-, i have to test some things for work
[04:32] <ant-> vanberge : try 'nubuntu'
[04:32] <doug__> doug out
[04:32] <Marupa> atlantia, drat.  >.<  Sorry, that's as much as I knew.
[04:32] <Toma-> vanberge: ahh. reading the man pages would be your best bet
[04:32] <talon223> well it was a file that was supposed to mess with my gtk2 settings
[04:32] <Marupa> cd ..
[04:32] <MarkFeathers> How well does Feisty handle MythTV right now?
[04:32] <Marupa> oops. XD
[04:33] <bruenig> MarkFeathers, feisty help in #ubuntu+1
[04:33] <ant-> vanberge : vanberge : nubuntu.org
[04:33] <ant-> blah
[04:33] <atlantia> Marupa, well thanks for the help, I will forge on
[04:33] <ant-> i seem to stutter when i talk
[04:33] <salty> are there any command-line cd/dvd burner apps available?
[04:33] <dewprism> erk..... did ~/.wine/drive_d/temp/zsnes/zsnesw.exe
[04:34] <squiggie> can anyone tell me how to turn off the firewall via commandline?
[04:34] <dewprism> it doesnt like me =(
[04:34] <MarkFeathers> bruenig: Honestly I posted it in there too but I always have trouble getting a response from people there
[04:34] <facugaich> I'm troubleshooting a friend over msn but his terminal doesn't seem to be verbose enough, how can I change this?
[04:34] <kylecasey> ok im back
[04:35] <ant-> vanberge : another recommendation is a book by Syngress called 'Pentesters Open Source Toolkit'.. it covers all those programs
[04:35] <kylecasey> toma i got this message while checking fglrxinfo "Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[04:35] <kylecasey> " what does this mean and how can i fix it?
[04:35] <bruenig> MarkFeathers, perhaps the people in #gentoo can help
[04:35] <Marupa> ewww XD  This murrina theme sucks XD
[04:36] <Toma-> kylecasey: is dri getting loaded in xorg.conf?
[04:36] <PersonA> Marupa : Thanks once again for the help !
[04:36] <MarkFeathers> bruenig, Hah, fair enough
[04:36] <kylecasey> no idea
[04:36] <vanberge> ant-, ty
[04:36] <fizzle> hey how would i go about installing fluxbox on ubuntu
[04:36] <kylecasey> just need the command so i can find out
[04:36] <ant-> vanberge : np
[04:36] <vanberge> ant-, i am pretty good with metasploit... the new version had me stumped for  a sec
[04:36] <vanberge> i think im good now
[04:36] <vanberge> fizzle, sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[04:36] <Toma-> kylecasey: if you dont use my name in your reply, i wont read it
[04:36] <colbert> what is the command to completely remove something again, apt-get purge something ?
[04:36] <ant-> vanberge : metasploit isnt even a foot in the door with pentesting
[04:37] <fizzle> vanberge, ty
[04:37] <vanberge> ant-, its a big one for me...  all windows environment...
[04:37] <kylecasey> sorry toma i have no idea if dri is getting loaded or how to find out
[04:37] <Marupa> PersonA, Sure thing.
[04:37] <facugaich> colbert, sudo apt-get uninstall --purge <package> me thinks
[04:37] <ant-> vanberge : nmap wil be your best friend and the source of most of your intelligence gathered.
[04:37] <Epic720> what filesystems besides FAT and NTFS can be read in both windows and linux?
[04:38] <Toma-> vanberge: you could always install lids or snort then try pen testing to see if it gets stopped. (which is what ist all about)
[04:38] <MarkFeathers> Epic720, If you install the driver for windows, ext3 & ext2
[04:38] <vanberge> ant-, i am wise in the ways of the nmap...  :-)
[04:38] <mon^rch> ext2-3 can too
[04:38] <colbert> facugaich, ok thx
[04:38] <vanberge> ant-, and the nessus
[04:38] <BarronVon> ant-: would you have any clue why i can't upload in azureus?
[04:38] <Epic720> what driver is that?
[04:38] <kylecasey> toma did you see my last reply?
[04:38] <colbert> facugaich, oh i just found it, it's apt-get remove --purge package
[04:38] <facugaich> I'm troubleshooting a friend over msn but his terminal doesn't seem to be verbose enough, how can I change this?
[04:38] <vanberge> Toma-, there is an ids already on the network
[04:38] <Epic720> MarkFeathers: what driver is that?
[04:39] <mon^rch> fsdriver.org (I think)
[04:39] <cellojoe> so if you haven't heard...
[04:39] <facugaich> colbert, sorry
[04:39] <ehou> X Windows System doesn't seem to work on my computer. When I try to use the Live CD, everything is fine until the X Server tries to start.
[04:39] <cellojoe> http://tinyurl.com/2nlfsr
[04:39] <MarkFeathers> Epic720, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[04:39] <cellojoe> feisty will be available for shipping
[04:39] <Toma-> vanberge: ahh. well give it a run and see what gets stopped. then based on what you test, create more rules
[04:39] <ant-> BarronVon : azureus is real good about telling you why at the botton right, either dht firewalled or NAT problems.. there is a lot of documentation on it
[04:39] <MarkFeathers> Epic720, It says ext2 but ext3 support is perfect as well
[04:39] <Epic720> ok, thansk
[04:39] <colbert> facugaich, np ;) i'm wrong too much to count so lol
[04:40] <BarronVon> ant:- I took out DHT firewall, but it just says firewalled
[04:40] <PureRumble> Ubuntu refuses to start on my computer. Something about S20checkroot.ch and that I should do a manual fsck. I know Im supposed to just state my problem and wait for help. But it is a rather lengthy problem-description, and I just want to know first if anyone thinks he/she can help :-/
[04:40] <Toma-> kylecasey: yes. what does "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep dri" return?
[04:40] <ant-> BarronVon : did you start firestarter and then disable it?
[04:40] <squiggie> can someone please tell me how to disable the ubuntu firewall via command line?
[04:41] <Sasa> can someone tell me which website aggregates scores and times for the Tetravex game that comes installed on Ubuntu?
[04:41] <ant-> squiggie : iptables
[04:41] <BarronVon> ant-:  yes i started firestarter then disabled the firewall
[04:41] <mon^rch> sudo killall -iptables?
[04:41] <kylecasey> toma it gives me only this (load "dri")
[04:41] <ant-> BarronVon : then its probly your router firewalling it
[04:41] <BarronVon> ant:- and i also set outgoing to permissive by default
[04:41] <Toma-> kylecasey: super
[04:41] <Sasa> wherecan I find tetravex sourcecode and strategies for playing this game?
[04:41] <Marupa> talon223, what was the program you said to install?
[04:41] <BarronVon> ant-:  i use this router for my windows xp torrents all the time and it works fine
[04:42] <facugaich> How can I make the terminal be more verbose?
[04:42] <Marupa> facugaich, -v ?
[04:42] <kylecasey> toma guess that means it is running?
[04:42] <ant-> BarronVon : i'm sorry thats the best i can do, but if you disable firestarter all your ports should be able for use.
[04:42] <facugaich> marupa, I mean the terminal... it seems it is not displaying errors and such
[04:42] <Toma-> kylecasey: you bet
[04:43] <Marupa> facugaich, as in what?  I don't understand.  Is there a program in terminal that isn't displaying errors?
[04:43] <PureRumble> OK, no initial response :-(. Well I hope then it's ok that I write the problem. Hope no one gets mad at me if it is lengthy :-(
[04:43] <BarronVon> ant:- do you know of a way i can scan all the ports on my router to see whcih may be open?
[04:43] <squiggie> ant-, there is no switch to tell iptables to stop
[04:43] <kylecasey> so what would be the next thing to do since it tells me "Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"" ?
[04:43] <facugaich> Marupa, while using apt-get or even make the terminal doesn't show anything
[04:43] <Rico> Hello, I need help... My sound only works in Ubuntu when I turn acpi off is there a fix for this ? I have other issues as well but this is my main one for now
[04:44] <Marupa> PureRumble, Ask not to ask a question.  Just ask the question.
[04:44] <ant-> squiggie : there is no stop, but you can allow everything basically
[04:44] <BarronVon> ant-: because with xp my client (bitlord) scanned for a port, perhaps it was able to find an open one
[04:44] <Marupa> Is there a way to see what program was last apt-get installed?
[04:44] <bruenig> is iptables in /etc/init.d, I can't remember
[04:44] <PureRumble> Marupa: OK, but like I said it is quite lengthy. That was why I asked if I can ask it ;/
[04:44] <MarkFeathers> Marupa: cheap way - "history | grep apt-get install"
[04:45] <Marupa> PureRumble, As long as it doesn't span more than 3 lines, we should be fine.
[04:45] <nonewmsgs> howdo i empty the quod libet library
[04:45] <ant-> http://www.linuxguruz.com/iptables/howto/
[04:45] <bruenig> that assumes you used apt-get install, you could have apt-get upgraded to get a package
[04:45] <Marupa> MarkFeathers, Thank you!
[04:45] <MarkFeathers> Marupa: Your welcome
[04:45] <Marupa> That's nice, I never knew about 'history' :3
[04:46] <Toma-> kylecasey: ok try this... "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[04:46] <talon223> Marupa, brightside
[04:46] <talon223> sudo apt-get install brightside
[04:46] <talon223> it's a screen actions program
[04:46] <facugaich> Is there an system error log or something for programs such as apt-get or make?
[04:46] <Marupa> talon223,  what does it do?
[04:46] <kylecasey> toma i got this "GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[04:46] <kylecasey> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed."
[04:46] <talon223> you can set it to switch to a second desktop when you move the mouse over far enough to the right for like 3 seconds
[04:47] <facugaich> In other words, is stderr stored somewhere?
[04:47] <talon223> or 1 1/2 seconds
[04:47] <Toma-> kylecasey: what the...
[04:47] <talon223> w/e...
[04:47] <PureRumble> So when I start Ubuntu, I get this error message.
[04:47] <PureRumble> * Checking root file system....
[04:47] <PureRumble> /etc/rcS.d/S20checkroot.sh:470 logsave: not found
[04:47] <PureRumble> * An automatic file system check (fsck) of the root filesystem failed. A manual fsck must be performed in maintenance mode with the root filesystem mounted in read-only mode.
[04:47] <talon223> it makes it better
[04:47] <Toma-> kylecasey: did gedit pop up?
[04:47] <talon223> really good for gnome. :)
[04:47] <kylecasey> toma yeah with a lot of info
[04:47] <Marupa> talon223, not understanding what it does or how to enable it or whatever.
[04:47] <PureRumble> The problem is that Im  then presented with a prompt where I can not run any command that I know of.
[04:47] <Toma-> kylecasey: great. and these 3 lines to the end of all that info http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13973/
[04:48] <talon223> lol
[04:48] <talon223> just sudo apt-get install brightside
[04:48] <talon223> then mess around with it
[04:48] <talon223> if you don't like it..uninstall it
[04:48] <Marupa> PureRumble, tried 'fsck /dev/hda' ?
[04:48] <TooR4u> what is vnc/X11?
[04:48] <talon223> it'll be in preferences
[04:49] <salty> how do i change permissions on my cd/dvd writer...command-line
[04:49] <Toma-> kylecasey: then save, and exit. then hold your breathe and run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[04:49] <PureRumble> Marupa: Thanks for response. I could not do that from the prompt at the startup. However, I might be able to do it from this ubuntu liveCD that Im on right now. Should I try?
[04:49] <biff_> I have a question about BitTorrent...
[04:49] <Marupa> PureRumble, Might as well.
[04:50] <whta> i have a problem where either trying to log off or restart the X server either takes several minutes or just causes my computer to hang completely. the screen goes dark and my monitor goes into power saving mode.
[04:50] <Rico> can someone help me with my sound problem please ?
[04:50] <Marupa> Rico,  what problem?
[04:50] <ant-> salty : use chmod
[04:50] <crimsun> Rico: pastebin the output from http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems
[04:50] <Marupa> is there a tightvnc howto somewhere?
[04:50] <TooR4u> what is vnc/X11?
[04:50] <ant-> !sound | Rico
[04:50] <ubotu> Rico: 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
[04:50] <Rico> Marupa, if I turn acpi=off the sound works but then my fan is always running
[04:51] <salty> 'chmod u+x /dev/scd0'?
[04:51] <biff_> ever since I got on Ubuntu, I've been unable to find the tracker in any bittorrent client that I've tried, while using my laptop at this location.  However, when I go on campus it works just fine, and also while I was on Windows it worked just fine...any ideas?
[04:51] <Rico> Marupa, with acpi off I can't load the latest Nvidia drivers only if acpi is on but then no sound
[04:51] <ant-> salty : that looks good
[04:51] <salty> ok...thnx
[04:51] <biff_> and it still doesn't work even when i use DMZ
[04:51] <TooR4u> what is vnc/X11 access ... any one tell me abot that?
[04:51] <ant-> salty : or to the link /media/cdrom
[04:51] <TooR4u> !vnc/x11
[04:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vnc/x11 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:52] <PureRumble> Marupa: But I have several partitions on /dev/hda. The first is a FAT32, the second is NTFS, third is EXT3 and fourth is SWAP, which one?
[04:52] <facugaich> Is there an system error log or something for programs such as apt-get or make?
[04:52] <Marupa> PureRumble, third
[04:52] <kylecasey> toma dont mean to be a pain but i dont see extensions or composite in gedit
[04:52] <PureRumble> Marupa: It says that it is completely clean
[04:52] <MarkFeathers> TooR4u: Vnc allows you to control a system as if you were sitting down at it.  X11 is responsible for graphics processing in linux
[04:52] <salty> ok... ant-
[04:52] <Toma-> kylecasey: yeh. you need to ADD those three lines to the end.
[04:52] <Marupa> PureRumble, try the first partition then
[04:52] <MarkFeathers> !vnc | TooR4u
[04:52] <ubotu> TooR4u: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[04:52] <ep2011> I'm using a RT61 chipset for my wireless, and for some reason I have to type commands every time I boot for it to work, ex: sudo iwpriv ra0 set SSID=<SSID>. is there any way why this happens? I followed this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=296822
[04:53] <Toma-> kylecasey: it will disable the composite extensions, which are terrible with ATI.
[04:53] <Differ> what does the first section at http://ruby.wikidot.com/linux do?
[04:53] <Differ> the one titled "Galcon full version"
[04:53] <Hon1> hi everyone!
[04:53] <PureRumble> Marupa: But it is a FAT32, and it tries to run fsck.ext2 on it... and ofcourse it presents some error-message ;/
[04:54] <Toma-> ep2011: you can set it in the network-manager dialog, or you can add that command to /etc/rc.local and never think about it again
[04:54] <Differ> hello
[04:54] <kylecasey> toma ok im gonna do exactly as you have it on that page you sent me
[04:54] <kylecasey> hope this works
[04:54] <Marupa> PureRumble, try fsck.fat32?
[04:54] <Toma-> kylecasey: make sure you ADD. dont replace everything with that little tiny bit
[04:54] <ep2011> Toma-, Supposily I cannot use network-manager with my card...
[04:54] <TooR4u> MarkFeathers, okey .. thank u ...; I have another dount ... If i have account in any hosting services it is possible to login it through "SSH"?
[04:54] <Toma-> ep2011: ahh sorry, network-admin
[04:55] <Hon1> So... I have a question about my broadcom wifi card
[04:55] <Rico> I don't think the problem is with the sound driver but with acpi
[04:55] <Hon1> Its a broadcom 43xx model
[04:55] <kylecasey> toma yeah im at the bottom in gedit  and i have them exactly how you put them
[04:55] <Hon1> aka Dell 1390
[04:55] <MarkFeathers> TooR4u: That completely depends on your hosting.  SSH gives you a remote terminal on that computer.
[04:55] <Toma-> kylecasey: cool :) none of that 10, 20, 30 stuff right?
[04:55] <ant-> !bcm43xx | Hon1
[04:55] <ubotu> Hon1: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[04:55] <Toma-> kylecasey: let make sure. copy all that was in xorg.conf onto pastebin plz
[04:56] <crimsun> Rico: right, I'd say the binary-only drivers are to blame
[04:56] <Pie-rate> i got an xorg update recently and now when i try to log in the screen flashes for a second and it takes me straight back to the login screen
[04:56] <PureRumble> Marupa: There is no such thing on this liveCD. But I mean the startup finnishes well up to like 25%. It is when it reaches the /etc/rcS.d/S20checkroot.sh that it says that logsave was not found. Doesnt that kind of tell us the error must be somewhere in hda3? :/ Pardon for questioning your advice.
[04:56] <squiggie> can someone please help me with troubleshooting why I can't connect to vncserver?
[04:56] <ep2011> Toma-, do i leave exit 0 at the end of rc.local?
[04:56] <Toma-> ep2011: yep
[04:56] <ep2011> Toma-, Okay, Ill try that, thanks
[04:56] <Toma-> ep2011: you can also remov the 'sudo' part of the command as its not needed
[04:56] <glguy> Every time I try to shutdown my Ubuntu 6.10 x86 install, it seems to hang intstead of turning off the computer
[04:56] <Hon1> honk
[04:57] <glguy> What log file should I be looking over to start with resolving this?
[04:57] <ep2011> Toma-, Oh, okay, thanks
[04:57] <TooR4u> MarkFeathers, okey ... my friend is saying that i should have publicIP to login through "SSH" ... is it correct?
[04:57] <Hon1> is 7.04 better than 6.10?
[04:57] <Toma-> Hon1: not yet
[04:57] <Rico> crimso: how do I fix that. with the acpi turned off I have sound but I can't install the latest Nvidia drivers without having acpi turned on.
[04:57] <waxyfresh> can i get some repo related help::http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=401331
[04:57] <Marupa> PureRumble, I'm no expert, so no problems there.  as for that logsave error,not sure.  Are you able to boot the computer at all?  If so, can you boot into single user mode?
[04:57] <kylecasey> toma how would i get you to see it i just used the same pastebin you did heres the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:57] <Toma-> kylecasey: copy the weblink with your xorg.conf in it
[04:58] <MarkFeathers> TooR4u: Your ip address has to be accessable from the outside world.  (aka not 192.168.X.X)
[04:58] <crimsun> Rico: you could use 'nv' if you're willing to live without hardware-accelerated 3D
[04:58] <waxyfresh> is  something wrong with #kubuntu i was in there for 10 mins without anyone asking/reponding to questions
[04:58] <kylecasey> toma it isnt the one i sent?
[04:58] <MajorPayne> I recently recovered from a system crash (Everything just froze).  Is there any log files I can look at?
[04:58] <MarkFeathers> TooR4u: When I say your ip I mean the IP of the server you are trying to connect to
[04:58] <Toma-> kylecasey: itll have i=2cyat77d at the end or something
[04:58] <PureRumble> Marupa: I can boot the computer up. The startup screen of Ubuntu (the bar that gets full slowly) shows up. But it will stop at like 20%, and then the error is presented
[04:58] <Pie-rate> someone please help, i really need to get into my computer. it downloaded a new xorg and now when i login it takes me back to the login screen
[04:58] <shmeelAway> hey how do i change the start up resolution?
[04:59] <Rico> crimsun: but with the acpi turned off my fan is always running and the battery indicator isn't there
[04:59] <kylecasey> toma i think this is the one http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13974/
[04:59] <PureRumble> Marupa: What is single user mode?
[04:59] <Toma-> shmeelAway: with great difficulty
[04:59] <toferrado> How can I set a screensaver as my desktop background?
[04:59] <shmeelAway> i want 1200x800, right now it's 1200 by 758
[04:59] <crimsun> Rico: sorry, your issue's not sound-related
[04:59] <MarkFeathers> Pie-rate: Select a different session from the bottom left? (safe?)
[04:59] <facugaich> MajorPayne: you have lots of logs at /ver/log, don't know which one could be useful
[04:59] <Marupa> PureRumble, hit ctrl+alt+f1  it should kick you to a terminal.
[04:59] <facugaich> MajorPayne: /var/log*
[04:59] <waxyfresh> anyone know how to install tork?i cant seem to apt-get it
[04:59] <Toma-> kylecasey: ok, get rid of the first three lines about Extensions composite and endsection. its already at the end of the file
[05:00] <Toma-> and that should be ok
[05:00] <TooR4u> MarkFeathers, if i should have Public IP than i can host my self.What is the need of other hosting services?
[05:00] <Pie-rate> MarkFeathers: no such luck. failsafe gnome fails
[05:00] <MajorPayne> facugaich: Ok, I will take a look, maybe it recorded nothing, there defiantly wasn't any error message on my end.  This was the second time in a month it happened.
[05:00] <shmeelAway> toma- so i'm stuck changing the resolution manually?
[05:00] <Rico> crimsun: I have many issues that have do do with acpi and conflicts but i'm not sure how to fix them.. i have rebuilt the kernel to the latest one and that didn't fix the problem. I have done lots of research and still haven't found anything.
[05:01] <PureRumble> Marupa: When do you want me to do that? During startup?
[05:01] <shmeelAway> isn't ctrl alt "+/-" supposed to change resolution?
[05:01] <Toma-> shmeelAway: yep. you can always set vga= to ask but thats a pain.
[05:01] <Marupa> PureRumble, right after the error.
[05:01] <Toma-> shmeelAway: only for X
[05:01] <Toma-> shmeelAway: startup is framebuffer
[05:01] <shmeelAway> right, but mine doesn't work in X
[05:01] <kylecasey> toma those arent in my xorg those where from the first pastebin you used so now its ready to save
[05:01] <MajorPayne> facugaich: Where might I be able to find out if there was a kernel panic?
[05:01] <kylecasey> ?
[05:01] <PureRumble> Marupa: Are you aware of that I never reach some GUI; Im only stuck in the command prompt.
[05:02] <shmeelAway> if it did i could press it twice and things would work
[05:02] <Marupa> PureRumble, that's fine.
[05:02] <ElijahBaley> hi everyone
[05:02] <Toma-> kylecasey: ok good stuff. save exit restart gdm

[05:02] <TooR4u> MarkFeathers, u there
[05:03] <MarkFeathers> TooR4u: Professional security, More bandwidth / speed.  Stability.  Most residential ISPs dont allow server hosting
[05:03] <PureRumble> Marupa: OK, what do you want me to do there?
[05:03] <kylecasey>  toma ok guess thats means ill be back again

[05:10] <Toma-> kylecasey: shucks :(
[05:10] <MarkFeathers> drcode, yes, all the restricted modules do is install binary modules for you, they should be autoloaded, but you can manually load them as well with modprobe

[05:27] <BarronVon> anyone know why torrents wont upload?
[05:27] <talon223> squiggie
[05:27] <Toma-> BarronVon: you need to open some ports up
[05:27] <talon223> open up your browser for the internet
[05:27] <geecko> ok Pelo, I have a toshiba notebook and ubuntu 6.10, the problem is ubuntu doesn't start when is unpluged to AC

[05:28] <Toma-> BarronVon: have you installed a firewall in ubuntu?
[05:28] <BarronVon> Toma-: yes firestarter, it's totally disabled
[05:28] <Pelo> geecko,   try looking your laptop model up in the forum,  maybe this is a know issue
[05:28] <kylecasey> toma how would you do that? or do you want me to restart it with the sudo... command again?
[05:28] <squiggie> talon223, and just try to connect to the server?
[05:28] <talon223> let's say the ubuntu box = 192.168.0.30, then type that in first...now VNC Java Client is on port 5800+the Display number...Which you said it started a new display on :2
[05:28] <talon223> so try 192.168.0.30:5802
[05:28] <Toma-> BarronVon: sounds like some residual config is still loaded firestarter
[05:29] <talon223> but replace ip with the right one
[05:29] <Silent_Chaos>  i copied and pasted the outputted xorg.conf from the vnidia setting manager into /x11/xorg.conf, and restarted the system. now i have to pan around my screen and beryl is not working
[05:29] <Toma-> kylecasey: just wait a sec.
[05:29] <talon223> try anything in the 5800-5805 range
[05:29] <BarronVon> Toma-:  how would you rectify that problem?
[05:29] <geecko> thanks Pelo
[05:29] <kylecasey> ok toma

[05:31] <talon223> ahh..poop.
[05:31] <talon223> it seems like the vncserver isn't even running
[05:31] <talon223> if you're on the same subnet...and it won't even handshake with the server
[05:32] <squiggie> talon223, well that is what I'm thinking as well, and that dmesg output makes me think there is a problem with it starting
[05:32] <talon223> message me the dmesg
[05:33] <Toma-> kylecasey: ok, FIRSTLY. backup your current xorg.conf file
[05:33] <Toma-> to your directory or something
[05:33] <Pelo> waxyfresh,  did you manualy play around with your sources.list ?
[05:33] <talon223> squiggie, send me the dmesg output in a private message

[05:35] <Toma-> kylecasey: .... im talking about /etc/X11/xorg.conf ...THATS where it is. and should be.
[05:35] <bthornton> I'm trying to figure out how to adjust the cursor speed on the USB mouse attached to my laptop.  The GNOME Mouse Properties only changes the speed/acceleration for the touchpad, but the USB mouse is unaffected.  Any ideas how to achieve this without screwing up my touchpad settings?
[05:37] <waxyfresh> how do you select all in nano?
[05:37] <smo> can i add some space to an existing .ext2 image file ???
[05:38] <Pelo> waxyfresh,  no idea ,  try using gedit if you are in gui mode
[05:39] <toferrado> Does xwinwrap works whitout glx?
[05:39] <LvcisPveR> oh boy, my ubuntu edgy failed in an olidata laptop
[05:40] <Pelo> waxyfresh,  you could also try copying from this page and replacing edgy with dapper  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=398676&highlight=dapper+sources.list
[05:40] <LvcisPveR> i couldn't install it
[05:40] <kylecasey> toma i finally found the right directory but it looks like i have 12 xorg config fiels
[05:40] <kylecasey> *files
[05:40] <Pelo> LvcisPveR,  did you get an error msg ?
[05:41] <Toma-> kylecasey: we only want xorg.conf (not the other files)
[05:41] <Pelo> toferrado,  check their requirements on their site
[05:41] <waxyfresh> Pelo: im checking the link,i couldent find a select all in nano so to delete the whole thing i just stuck a fork in my backspace key :)

[05:41] <LvcisPveR> pelo, no i just cuoldn't install it

[05:42] <biff_> ever since I got on Ubuntu, I've been unable to find the tracker in any bittorrent client that I've tried, while using my laptop at this location.  However, when I go on campus it works just fine, and also while I was on Windows it worked just fine...any ideas?
[05:42] <kylecasey> ok toma done
[05:43] <Toma-> kylecasey: ok, "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[05:43] <Pelo> LvcisPveR,   fixing the screen rez is easy enough,  you can also try installing with the alternate install cd  it is text based,
[05:43] <LvcisPveR> pelo: i also tried mandriva one but didn't work
[05:43] <arooni> once i have a .deb file  on my machine, how do i nstall it?
[05:44] <felixhummel> How do I make a bash script run every time at startup (non-X)?
[05:44] <LvcisPveR> pelo: the screen resolution , well, it only appear the one by dfec
[05:44] <cafuego> arooni: sudo dpkg -i <foo>.deb

[05:44] <timerabu> ?
[05:44] <cafuego> felixhummel: /etc/rc.local
[05:45] <Pelo> LvcisPveR,  you only need to open up xorg.conf and add the extra rezolutions you want ,  just means your screen wasn'T properly identified
[05:45] <cafuego> timerabu: ls /etc
[05:45] <squiggie> talon223, did you see that output?
[05:45] <waxyfresh> !version
[05:45] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[05:45] <Toma-> kylecasey: paste all this into it.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13982/plain/
[05:45] <talon223> squiggie, do "Xrealvnc" in the ssh

[05:49] <slackern> bah to tired for this, now you got me laughing
[05:49] <brophat> does atp-get just get package, or does it install it?
[05:49] <Epic720Admin> no
[05:49] <Jordan_U> I just installed ntfs-3g and plugged in an external ntfs formatted drive, I see the drive in lsusb but how do I mount it?
[05:49] <Epic720Admin> LvcisPveR: I am trying to mount my raided NTFS drives
[05:49] <billy> brophat: it installs it if you use `apt-get install` command.
[05:49] <GutterPhenomenon> wow, i just installed ubuntu on a really crappy machine in my room, now i have 3 machines running all at once; WinXP Build 2600, WinVista Home Premium, and Ubuntu!
[05:50] <talon223> squiggie
[05:50] <LvcisPveR> didn't automatix o it
[05:50] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:50] <LvcisPveR> do it
[05:50] <talon223> you need to run cat /etc/lsb-release
[05:50] <LvcisPveR> by pelo
[05:50] <LvcisPveR> bye
[05:50] <talon223> i think that is where you find out
[05:50] <ardchoille> GutterPhenomenon: Well, you have one really good machine ;)
[05:50] <brophat> billy apt-get just gets it? where does it put it?
[05:50] <Epic720Admin> talon, are you talking to me?
[05:50] <dan20> Can anyone tell me how to change the resolution of just the login screen (not the desktop)?
[05:50] <s> please i need help installing my sound card. anyone?

[05:50] <squiggie> talon223, 6.1 edgy
[05:51] <talon223> alright...
[05:51] <arooni> what do i need to add to edgy so that i can play back wma and wmv files?
[05:51] <billy> brophat:  you mean, where is the executable file put?
[05:51] <ardchoille> brophat: /var/cache/apt/archives I believe
[05:51] <talon223> that's odd..gimme a second to research something real quick
[05:51] <brophat> so if you just do an apt-get and then want to install it, how do you do that?
[05:51] <Toma-> i think i killed kyle :<
[05:51] <smo> w32codecs arooni
[05:51] <Jordan_U> waxyfresh, I am not quite sure what you want that isn't in /proc/cpuinfo but if you want to know what kernel you are using try uname -r
[05:51] <smo> not all wmv..
[05:52] <GutterPhenomenon> i do, the Windows XP machine is running Athlon 64 3500+ OCed, Radeon X850XT 256MB GDDR3 + Radeon X1800GTO 256MB GDDR3, Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS PCI, ASUS MVP-Deluxe Radeon Xpress 3200 mobo, 2GB DDR SDRAM PC 3200...
[05:52] <ardchoille> Jordan_U: He wants i386, 64bit, etc
[05:52] <billy> brophat: if you do `sudo apt-get install <packagename>`, apt-get will download and install the package.
[05:52] <arooni> smo: Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, oris only available from another source
[05:52] <billy> brophat: most programs will be accessible through the "Applications" menu.
[05:52] <squiggie> how do you personal message people?
[05:52] <GutterPhenomenon> is ubuntu based off of any single build, like fedora core for instance?
[05:52] <ardchoille> squiggie: /msg nick
[05:52] <smo> add debian multimedia to your sources.list get the package and remove it
[05:52] <squiggie> seems like that aren't getting through
[05:53] <brophat> billy what do you do if you have already downloaded it and want to install it.
[05:53] <dan20> GutterPhenomenon:  Debian
[05:53] <smo> aosearch another ubuntu source..
[05:53] <waxyfresh> Jordan_U: like what my proc type is amd,i386 i686 etc. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13984/
[05:53] <billy> brophat:  did you download it via apt-get ?
[05:53] <arooni> so does anyone know how to get w32codecs
[05:53] <arooni> when its not found
[05:53] <brophat> billy yes
[05:53] <ScrAm> ehh
[05:53] <ardchoille> waxyfresh: Try: uname -m
[05:53] <billy> brophat: what command did you use?  curious.
[05:53] <ssaa> please help me. Im getting sound from my headphone out but no from the speakers in my laptop. why?
[05:53] <ScrAm> I installed Java, restarted Firefox, but it still says it's not installed.
[05:53] <brophat> i did not use command my brother did
[05:54] <brophat> apt-get
[05:54] <dan20> waxyfresh:  You have a pentium 2
[05:54] <dan20> waxyfresh:  it seems
[05:54] <LvcisPveR> arooni: install mplayer
[05:54] <brophat> sudo apt-get clean i believe it was
[05:54] <billy> brophat: was that all you typed into the terminal?
[05:54] <arooni> LvcisPveR: its already on my computer
[05:54] <GutterPhenomenon> use XMMS Music Player? i use it over anything else
[05:54] <brophat> billy yes
[05:54] <teoti> what distribution are you running ScrAm ?
[05:54] <Cosmo_> I am using a averatec c3500 laptop, the touchpad works just fine but I can't get it to recognize a USB mouse, anyone know how to get the mouse working?
[05:54] <ssaa> please someone help me
[05:54] <ScrAm> ubuntu
[05:54] <GutterPhenomenon> /dev/usb??
[05:55] <LvcisPveR> arooni: are you using ubuntu?
[05:55] <teoti> cosmo find the driver for your usb mouse
[05:55] <LvcisPveR> or another distro
[05:55] <brophat> billy i guess an apt-get install clean can be done now anyway
[05:55] <teoti> ScrAm, what version?
[05:55] <arooni> LvcisPveR: ubutnu 6.10
[05:55] <ScrAm> 6.10 I think.
[05:55] <smo> arooni
[05:55] <teoti> k
[05:55] <smo> look it
[05:55] <billy> brophat: then you probably didn't download anything.  you have to use the apt-get program in conjuction with several other words and stuff.  like, to download XMMS, you'd type `sudo apt-get install xmms`.  just typing `apt-get` won't do anything.
[05:55] <arooni> how can i get the beep media player
[05:55] <smo> http://alibisca.free.fr/mediawiki/index.php?title=Finalisation_ubuntu
[05:55] <slackern> hehe model name      : Unknown CPU Type

[05:55] <LvcisPveR> arooni: did you install automatix?
[05:55] <ScrAm> I apt-getted java
[05:55] <smo> add the medibuntu to your sources.list
[05:55] <ScrAm> and restarted Firefox
[05:56] <teoti> ScrAm, http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[05:56] <dan20> Can anyone tell me how to change the resolution of just the login screen (not the desktop)?
[05:56] <arooni> LvcisPveR: yes
[05:56] <brophat> billy sudo apt-get clean is what was typed
[05:56] <Cosmo_> where should I look for the driver? it is a logitech
[05:56] <teoti> go there install that then install everything you might need including flash and java
[05:56] <GutterPhenomenon> does ubuntu use a program similar to HyperTerminal in windows? im trying to be able to program my Cisco 1721 router via a serial connection, COM1, 9600 baud rate
[05:56] <LvcisPveR> arooni: so what's the problem then?
[05:56] <teoti> it's an installer for stuff like java and flash
[05:56] <teoti> :)
[05:56] <teoti> Does all the work for ya
[05:56] <arooni> LvcisPveR: ok ur just staying use the automatix
[05:56] <billy> brophat:  oh.  well, that didn't install anything either.  just cleared your archive, or something like that.  What package are you trying to install?
[05:56] <ardchoille> !automatix | arooni
[05:56] <ubotu> arooni: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:56] <ScrAm> teoti: okay, I did the command in "Download"
[05:56] <ScrAm> it just said "OK"
[05:56] <arooni> ooh no
[05:56] <ScrAm> does that mean it's done?
[05:56] <teoti> automatix sucks
[05:56] <arooni> maybe i shouldnt use it!!!!11
[05:57] <billy> automatix = the devil.
[05:57] <teoti> ScrAm, got aim?
[05:57] <ardchoille> arooni: Stay away from it :)
[05:57] <Cosmo_> do I check the logitech website or should I look somewhere in ubuntu?
[05:57] <GMWeezel> How can I speed up SDL programs?
[05:57] <arooni> wow
[05:57] <LvcisPveR> arooni: automatix installs all you need
[05:57] <ScrAm> teoti: yep.
[05:57] <Matt101> lol billy
[05:57] <arooni> i was gonna use it
[05:57] <teoti> what is it?

[05:57] <teoti> k imma im you
[05:57] <arooni> heath: but how do i get w32codecs?  i get a error message that its not found
[05:57] <ardchoille> LvcisPveR: automatix is not supported and not recommended.
[05:57] <ScrAm> k
[05:57] <LvcisPveR> i prefer BMP
[05:57] <arooni> heath:  Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, oris only available from another source
[05:57] <billy> arooni: from what I understand, Feisty removes nearly all need for things like automatix or easyubuntu.
[05:58] <GutterPhenomenon> anyone know how to properly install a downloaded archived program using 'make'? like in tty2 i must specify 'make -f Makefile', but then it gives me an error...
[05:58] <smo> updated the sources.list arooni?
[05:58] <brophat> billy have you even ever heard of an app called clean?
[05:58] <LvcisPveR> ardchoille: it has worked well on my pc and almost any single computer i've installed it, even with beryl
[05:58] <micahcowan> arooni, you need to have the "restricted" repositories enabled.
[05:58] <talon223> mmm...i dunno about feisty removing the need for automatix
[05:58] <Matt101> waxyfresh if thats what you want to use then use it
[05:58] <arooni> where do i go to edit the sources.list?
[05:58] <talon223> the NEED ..maybe...but it's a convenience with some of the apps
[05:58] <smo>  apt-cache search w32codecs
[05:58] <smo> w32codecs - win32 binary codecs
[05:58] <ardchoille> LvcisPveR: In this channel, we are not to recommend or support it. When in Rome..
[05:58] <talon223> saves alot of time
[05:58] <squiggie> talon223, anything?
[05:59] <billy> brophat:  no.  but I have heard of using that command with apt-get to clean your archives, or something.
[05:59] <GutterPhenomenon> hmm...
[05:59] <GutterPhenomenon> i was surprised to find that ubuntu even had tty2 enabled
[05:59] <arooni> smo: micahcowan where do i edit this sources.list?
[05:59] <GutterPhenomenon> lets try tty3-tty7!!
[06:00] <GutterPhenomenon> ok... looks like just tty2 and tty7
[06:00] <brophat> billy yah i know. i think my brother might be getting confused bwahahaha
[06:00] <brophat> he is just comming over from winblows hahaha
[06:00] <arooni> smo: micahcowan my restirected sources are already enabled............. any other ideas
[06:01] <billy> brophat: that's what brothers do.  get confused and ask you.
[06:01] <micahcowan> Run smo's example command with apt-get: do you get the same output he does?
[06:01] <micahcowan> arooni, also: have you run "apt-get update" since enabling restricted?
[06:02] <BSG75> looking for help finding a bittorrent client .. Azureus is killing my system and bittornedo is awefully slow
[06:02] <GutterPhenomenon> BitLord
[06:02] <Toma-> BSG75: Deluge is the best.
[06:02] <Differ> BitComet
[06:02] <BSG75> thank you
[06:02] <GutterPhenomenon> or BitTyrant/BitComet
[06:03] <Differ> BitTornado is the fastest
[06:03] <Cosmo_> anyone know were I can find drivers for a old logitech optical mouse, all I can find on logitech's website is windows and mac drivers
[06:03] <Differ> you probably haven't configured your firewall
[06:03] <BSG75> I wish Azureus wasn't such a hog
[06:03] <GutterPhenomenon> Xtreme eMule
[06:03] <GutterPhenomenon> MorphXT
[06:03] <billy> BSG75: it's not Azureus.  it's Java.
[06:03] <Toma-> BSG75: sad fact about Java apps. They suck.
[06:03] <GutterPhenomenon> lol i program in java
[06:03] <BSG75> I agree
[06:03] <GutterPhenomenon> and yes, it sucks
[06:03] <Toma-> GutterPhenomenon: tell them to reduce the momery footprint :)
[06:03] <arooni> micahcowan: smo chasetoys@LilArooni:/etc/apt$ apt-cache search w32codecs; chasetoys@LilArooni:/etc/apt$ (no results come back)
[06:03] <talon223> java is slow
[06:03] <Toma-> and the memory footprint
[06:04] <K_Dallas> Q: I booted from an ubuntu CD and while in the livecd, I tried to copy my present MBR by: dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/mnt/floppy/sda1.img count=1 bs=512 , now i want to know if i could always recover my mbr by the reversin if with of ? thanks
[06:04] <Matt101> I'm very frustrated with frostwire and port numbers
[06:04] <talon223> it's...nice because it's very portable
[06:04] <micahcowan> arooni, if you have restricted enabled, then it sounds like yo uneed to sudo apt-get update.
[06:04] <talon223> but...has anyone opened limewire on windows?
[06:04] <GutterPhenomenon> why
[06:04] <talon223> when my brother uses it
[06:04] <GutterPhenomenon> limewire sucks
[06:04] <talon223> i know...dc++
[06:04] <talon223> but...
[06:04] <arooni> micahcowan: well i just did run it... and it updated, but i still cand find w32codecs
[06:04] <talon223> my brother is a bit gay.
[06:04] <GutterPhenomenon> ??
[06:04] <talon223> and it freezes his entire computer
[06:04] <GutterPhenomenon> oh
[06:04] <EADG> Matt101: I gave up on Frostwire... nothing but grief.
[06:04] <GutterPhenomenon> its a mem hog
[06:04] <talon223> same with like..azureus and shit
[06:05] <Fire23> newbie here, I wanted to check out ubuntu and couldn't install it on my old pb g3 is this the right place to ask about an install issue?
[06:05] <BSG75> differ: any idea how I can tell my dhcp server to allow the ports to 192.168.2.105?
[06:05] <GutterPhenomenon> talon what specs are in his system
[06:05] <talon223> i mean, the damn program downloads files, how can you turn that into 100mb worth or RAM
[06:05] <arooni> micahcowan: smo  any other ideas :P?
[06:05] <GutterPhenomenon> limewire uses lots of caching
[06:05] <GutterPhenomenon> its annoying
[06:05] <talon223> lol..it's my little brother...he doesn't do much and it's an OLLLDD computer...
[06:05] <GutterPhenomenon> stick with eMule bro
[06:05] <talon223> it's ME
[06:05] <Matt101> EADG its not bad but I like it why you give up?
[06:06] <GutterPhenomenon> its got so many more sources
[06:06] <micahcowan> arooni, what is the output of grep restricted /etc/apt/sources.list?
[06:06] <talon223> with 256mb
[06:06] <GutterPhenomenon> hahaha
[06:06] <EADG> Port numbers.
[06:06] <talon223> yea..i know
[06:06] <GutterPhenomenon> 256MB on ME should run like a charm dude

[06:06] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:06] <talon223> i don't think it's a memory problem
[06:06] <talon223> i think it's a microsoft/crappy java problem
[06:06] <GutterPhenomenon> defrag hard drive?
[06:06] <GutterPhenomenon> scan for infection?
[06:07] <efface> i have a amd64 but i run a 32bit kernel....is is beneficial to install 64 if I use the comp for everyday use? will I see any marked performance increases?  Or will i only see increases if i were to be running this as a serer
[06:07] <arooni> micahcowan: results here: http://pastie.caboo.se/51862
[06:07] <talon223> that computer can rot
[06:07] <GutterPhenomenon> x64 only performance plus in x64 applications
[06:07] <arooni> how do i increase the size of my swap partition?
[06:07] <nonuda_> yo guys, i have shared a folder (samba), but when i try to browse it from another box it said that i don't have the permission, how do i enable it?
[06:07] <arooni> and decrease the size of my main partition accordingly
[06:07] <GutterPhenomenon> hmm, i should know this
[06:07] <GutterPhenomenon> im taking a Linux+ class
[06:07] <efface> GutterPhenomenon: would i have a faster boot time? Do any of the WM run in 64?
[06:07] <arooni> and how big should my swap partition be
[06:07] <talon223> and don't 32 bit programs run slower in 64 bit kernel
[06:07] <ardchoille> arooni: How much ram and swap do you have?
[06:08] <talon223> or ...is that just in windows?
[06:08] <LastMall> efface  doubt you'd notice the difference in every day use
[06:08] <arooni> ardchoille: right now i have 2gig ram; 1gig swap
[06:08] <talon223> i'm with lastmall
[06:08] <talon223> i work at BB and i tell people that all the time...
[06:08] <Crankymonky> GutterPhenomenon, You could use a variety of tools...
[06:08] <ardchoille> arooni: Enlarging swap in your case would be useless I think.
[06:08] <talon223> they start getting into athlon x2 4400+ vs 4200+
[06:08] <efface> yea you wouldnt notice that
[06:08] <efface> hehe
[06:08] <arooni> ardchoille: well when i tried to hibernate one time; it said there wasnt enough swap space ( i have a sony laptop )
[06:09] <talon223> i'm like, you're 50 years old, will probably use it for email and internet, and will DEFINITELY never see the difference
[06:09] <efface> be nice if more apps came out for 64 since its taken more adoptation into the market place
[06:09] <GutterPhenomenon> exactly
[06:09] <talon223> we sell 32 bit vista
[06:09] <talon223> some old guy got pissed off
[06:09] <talon223> i was like...you're old, hurry up and die.

[06:15] <CokeNCode> can anyone help me out here ?
[06:15] <kylecasey> toma doing this with the livecd will fix the os thats already on here?
[06:15] <billy> CokeNCode: are you sure you're using the correct driver?
[06:15] <Toma-> kylecasey: no, you need to reboot into it
[06:15] <Nergar> tombow, ur right thanx :p
[06:16] <Nergar> ardchoille, no, add files to the .iso and delete others
[06:16] <ardchoille> Nergar: an .iso file is a finalised file system, you can't add to it. but you can copy the files to another folder, add files and then build a new iso
[06:17] <CokeNCode> billy, how would i be using the wrong driver
[06:17] <waxyfresh> 2 questions where do i get a sources list for a i686 computer running dapper?

[06:17] <kylecasey> yeah
[06:17] <billy> CokeNCode: it happens.  be sure you're up to date and then reconfigure the xserver.
[06:17] <ardchoille> Nergar: I bet those just build a new iso and delete the old one when the work is done ;)

[06:20] <billy> polles: type "/join #ubuntu-es"
[06:20] <facugaich> I win :)

[06:22] <LastMall> would it be accurate to say that atheros chipset wifi is a bit easier to use than broadcom wifi chipset ?
[06:23] <crdlb> LastMall, a lot easier
[06:23] <ben339> gah this is frustrating :p
[06:23] <ardchoille> ben339: What is your exact issue?
[06:24] <ben339> when I load the livecd, it boots ok, but as it starts to set things up it says it cannot detect the CD-ROM
[06:24] <ben339> it gives me a list of drivers, and none of them work

[06:35] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:35] <kylecasey> alonea
[06:35] <Toma-> right
[06:35] <waxyfresh> !pastebin\
[06:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebin\ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:35] <Toma-> kylecasey: get the drivers using easyubuntu
[06:35] <waxyfresh> !pastebin
[06:35] <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)
[06:35] <Alonea> kylecasey: hang on. MUUUCH easier way than that. Its called ENVY
[06:35] <kylecasey> remember i tried that easy thing but it wouldnt let me because i already had some installed
[06:35] <kylecasey> toma
[06:36] <kylecasey> alonea what is this envy thing and how do i get it?
[06:36] <Alonea> kylecasey: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[06:36] <Alonea> kylecasey: it installs your nvidia or ati drivers for you. Basically what the howto wiki does with a few adjustments and it does it all for you.
[06:36] <heath> Envy = wonderful :D
[06:36] <waxyfresh> ardchoille: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13990/
[06:37] <kylecasey> ok thanks lets see if that works
[06:37] <Bicchi> Is there going to be a herd 6 CD release?
[06:37] <kylecasey> hey toma thanks for getting me back up without having to frigin reinstall everything
[06:37] <GutterPhenomenon> id really like the beta to go full release so i can start ordering some cds finally!
[06:37] <Alonea> kylecasey: you will most likely neled some packages before it will instal
[06:37] <Toma-> kylecasey: np. find the SIMPLEST method for installing drivers.
[06:37] <hajiki> hey guys i need a good application like winrar... to compress files and input passwords to them. I DLed Ark, but i dont like it.
[06:38] <Alonea> waxyfresh: gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys KEY    replace capital KEY with the number (like the one in line 14)
[06:38] <ardchoille> waxyfresh: Looked at your sources, seriously, I don't think the problem is with your sources.. I still think it's something else.
[06:38] <Alonea> ardchoille: he said he didnt do the key thing. the error he has is due to that.
[06:38] <kylecasey> yeah alonea / toma i figure that but as far installing more stuff shouldnt i start getting rid of some of the stuff that isnt working?and how will i know if the stuff is configd right?
[06:38] <ardchoille> Alonea: This error? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=401331
[06:38] <BSG75> I am so very impressed with compiz on ubuntu
[06:38] <Alonea> ardchoille: yes
[06:39] <ardchoille> waxyfresh: I stand corrected.
[06:39] <mistone> I am about to buy a dual core 64 bit computer should I go with AMD or intel... cause I only see AMD 64 bit download not intel 64 bit download
[06:39] <Alonea> kylecasey: I just mean packages like python so envy can work.
[06:39] <bulmer> I need to telnet into a Windows 2000 telnet server but it uses NTLM, how do I get around this if am using Ubuntu?
[06:39] <waxyfresh> ardchoille: how can i tell if im behind a proxy?coudl that be it?
[06:39] <GutterPhenomenon> AMD is the cheapest
[06:39] <ardchoille> Alonea: How is that related to "Could not connect to localhost:4001 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused)" ?
[06:39] <mistone> yea I will prob get AMD
[06:39] <hajiki> j0
[06:39] <Toma-> kylecasey: yeh, remove all the junk youve installed. but envy will sort eberything out for you, so try that first
[06:39] <mistone> but what is better for ubuntu
[06:39] <GutterPhenomenon> i always will go with AMD
[06:40] <GutterPhenomenon> no matter what
[06:40] <MonkeyFit> AMD 64 should run fine on Intel 64
[06:40] <mistone> oh ok
[06:40] <Alonea> ardchoille: it can't connect to the repo without the keys. it doesn't see them.
[06:40] <mistone> thats what I was asking
[06:40] <kylecasey> ok alonea where would python be if i have it?
[06:40] <bulmer> btw I tried to disable NTLM on the W2K side via  unset NTLM but am still getting an error of not correct NTLM authentication
[06:40] <mistone> shit is cheap tho its only 500 bucks for a nice dual core computer now :D
[06:40] <Alonea> kylecasey: ok, I use kubuntu, so dunno if ubuntu uses adept or what.
[06:40] <Alonea> kylecasey: give me just a sec.
[06:41] <wine> hello people
[06:41] <kylecasey> ok sure
[06:41] <kylecasey> alonea
[06:41] <ardchoille> Alonea: I don't understand how that relates to 127.0.0.1 refusing the connection. But, nevermind.
[06:41] <mistone> oh also I have a P4 2.4 ghz now and i cna't seem to enable hyperthreading...
[06:41] <MonkeyFit> Ubuntu doesn't use adept
[06:41] <mistone> it says I have it in hardinfo
[06:41] <MonkeyFit> I think it uses synaptic
[06:41] <Flannel> kylecasey: synaptic package manager is Gnomes
[06:42] <Alonea> kylecasey: ok, do this command in your terminal. this will install most of the packages you need. sudo aptitude install module-assistant build-essential debhelper debconf dh-make fakeroot libstdc++5 linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[06:42] <mon^rch> hmmm what should I type to see what freq. my cpu is running at?
[06:42] <kylecasey> flannel what does gnomes do for me here?
[06:42] <wine> hi, i'm new in ubuntu and no have pass root
[06:42] <Flannel> kylecasey: I dont know?  Synaptic : gnome :: Adept : KDE
[06:42] <heath> alonea i think he can run apt-get install -f ?
[06:42] <wine> what is it?
[06:42] <Flannel> wine: that's correct.  Ubuntu doesn't usethe root account, uses sudo instead
[06:43] <kylecasey> alonea i just ran the install from the site is the sudo you listed in addition to that?
[06:43] <wine> flannel so... what is the password root?
[06:43] <mistone> wine: if you REALLY need the root account use sudo su thats what I do
[06:43] <Flannel> wine: the root account is disabled.
[06:43] <heath> kylecasey just follow the instructions at the bottom of albert's site
[06:44] <wine> fuck
[06:44] <Flannel> mistone: that's incorrect.  If you want a root shell, `sudo -i`
[06:44] <Flannel> !language | wine
[06:44] <ubotu> wine: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:44] <wine> this sucks
[06:44] <mistone> oh fine whatever
[06:44] <Flannel> wine: why?
[06:44] <wine> sorry, i'm from argentina and try speak english
[06:44] <mistone> wine: you can enable it if you really want there is no reason to tho
[06:44] <mon^rch> what do I type to see what freq my cpu is running at?
[06:44] <Flannel> wine: just prefix whatever commands you want with `sudo` to run them as the super uesr
[06:45] <Alonea> kylecasey: the rest you will need are called gksu, python-gtk2, python-vte, python-vtk, and damn. there is one or two more. When you install envy it will tell you the missing packages.
[06:45] <bimberi> cat /proc/cpuinfo
[06:45] <wine> per example... i need into to Synaptic and i need the pass root
[06:45] <mon^rch> ty bimberi
[06:45] <wine> so...
[06:45] <heath> wine: that should be your user password
[06:45] <Alonea> kylecasey: yeah, you see, some programs need "packages" so the program can run.
[06:45] <wine> i don't know
[06:45] <bimberi> mon^rch: yw (sry, should have prepended your nick)
[06:45] <Flannel> wine: Synaptic is asking for YOUR password, your user password
[06:45] <wine> haha
[06:46] <kylecasey> ok alonea just ran that and everything seems to be there and nothing was updated or removed
[06:46] <GutterPhenomenon> synaptics, isnt that for touchpads on laptops?
[06:46] <wine> por dios, gracias
[06:46] <wine> este sistema es muy diferente
[06:46] <Flannel> GutterPhenomenon: synaptics is, synaptic isnt
[06:46] <facugaich> wine, en #ubuntu-es hay ayuda en espaol
[06:46] <heath> wine: system -> administraton -> users and groups
[06:46] <Alonea> kylecasey: ok, thats fine. and check your adept or synaptic or whatever and check for those others i listed
[06:46] <wine> realy?
[06:46] <wine> thks
[06:46] <mon^rch> now, is there a way to get it past 1000mhz? it's a AMD64 3000+
[06:46] <smileboot> is there a command that prevents the rolling bar coming up during install so i can see where the install is locking up ?
[06:47] <wine> but here can probe my english
[06:47] <wine> my bad english
[06:47] <wine> and try understand you
[06:47] <facugaich> wine, do as you wish :)
[06:47] <mon^rch> bimberi: now, is there a way to get it past 1000mhz? it's a AMD64 3000+
[06:47] <GutterPhenomenon> what, FSB?
[06:48] <wine> anywhere, thks for the data over the channel #ubuntu-es
[06:48] <bulmer> smileboot: you can look into one of those console via ctl+alt+fx
[06:48] <GutterPhenomenon> tty2
[06:48] <andrei> If I wanted to ask about my SoC application who would I ask?
[06:48] <smileboot> bulmer  cheers gonna give that a try find out where im crashing
[06:48] <bulmer> smileboot: each script command line is echoed on one of those consoles
[06:48] <bimberi> mon^rch: does it have frequency scaling?  if so it should scale automatically
[06:48] <kylecasey> ok alonea ive got pythongtk2,gtk.dev,gtk2-doc and tutorial
[06:49] <waxyfresh> Alonea: did what you said still haveing the same prob :http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13991/
[06:49] <Alonea> kylecasey: ok, to install Envy, right click on the  file and look for "install package" thing its under something called package manager or something like that. You will most likely get some error listing names of packages you need.  Just go back and look for those and then reinstall it.
[06:49] <Prez_> ne1 running laptop with intel_sda module? i have no sound after resume from hibernate on edgy..
[06:49] <mon^rch> bimberi: I wouldn't know but it IS overclocked via the BIOS and windows reports the correct freq, so...
[06:49] <kylecasey> ok alonea i did install and right now im at the install ati driver/nvidia /uninstall
[06:50] <wine> sorry, xfce is available in ubuntu?
[06:50] <bimberi> mon^rch: there's also a frequency scaling monitor panel applet - right-click on panel, Add to Panel...
[06:50] <wine> i can install with synaptic?
[06:50] <bimberi> !xubuntu | wine
[06:50] <ubotu> wine: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[06:50] <mon^rch> bimberi: mmm ok, ty
[06:50] <wine> what?

[06:53] <GrahamT> I just installed ubuntu, but cannot get telnet to work.  I ran apt-get install telnetd and received a message that it could not find the telnetd package
[06:53] <bimberi> wine: mon^rch yes

[06:53] <PoofDaddy> Prez_ How is the nokia?
[06:53] <Alonea> kylecasey: I have a PSOne emulator on Linux
[06:53] <bimberi> sry wine, that was a typo
[06:53] <mon^rch> bimberi: ok, tyvm
[06:53] <Toma-> kylecasey: you can use zsnes, but no, im running a real SNES thru my tvcard in linux and playing it thru that.
[06:53] <Flannel> GrahamT: you need to just use telnet?  or you want to run a telnet server?
[06:53] <Toma-> none of that emulator rubbish :)
[06:53] <cmatheson> hey, does anyone know where i can get a ready-to-go xen-disk-image of ubuntu-server?
[06:54] <GrahamT> just a telnet server
[06:54] <bimberi> mon^rch: yw

[06:54] <Prez_> poofdaddy: rockin..getting better with each release..
[06:54] <GrahamT> just used to telnet and it is a home network so i don't need to worry about security
[06:54] <Flannel> GrahamT: telnetd is in universe, you'll need to enable universe
[06:55] <cmatheson> kylecasey: i don't have any tricks... you just install zsnes and use that
[06:55] <TooR4u> how can i chech whether my "SSH" is working proparly
[06:55] <TooR4u> ?
[06:55] <Flannel> TooR4u: by connecting to it
[06:55] <TooR4u> i am not able to connect any servers flamesrock
[06:55] <TooR4u> oops
[06:55] <kylecasey> ok sweet alonea envy is great
[06:55] <TooR4u> Flannel,
[06:55] <Flannel> TooR4u: Any servers?  what do yo umean by that?
[06:55] <Alonea> kylecasey: *shrugs* I installed epsxe . it has a lot of steps in successfully installing it, but once you get it and some other stuff you can play psx games with a gamepad if you want
[06:56] <Alonea> kylecasey: got it to install without any errors?
[06:56] <heath> toor4u ssh root@localhost?
[06:56] <PoofDaddy> Prez_  I was thinking about getting a voice recoder, but if that has that feature too, I might as well not.  Because I'm planning on getting it.
[06:56] <GrahamT> ok..let me look at the docs and see if that works
[06:56] <TooR4u> yahh
[06:56] <kylecasey> looks like its time to restart again yeah alonea surprising right
[06:56] <Flannel> TooR4u, heath, your root account is disabled.  Apart from that, you've probably got the root account disallowed to login remotely anyway.
[06:56] <Alonea> kylecasey: hope your video went well!
[06:56] <PoofDaddy> Prez_ It's got Linux as the OS and Opera as a browser, right?
[06:57] <heath> toor4u then do ssh user@localhost
[06:57] <TooR4u> Flannel, i have one account in nipl.net
[06:57] <kylecasey> yeah dont worry ill come back and let you know thanks i gotta get those emulators anyway when im done restarting alonea
[06:57] <Prez_> it's got a mic so should work as recorder..
[06:57] <TooR4u> It is the first time to login
[06:58] <Prez_> poofdaddy: yes..debian based..
[06:58] <Alonea> waxyfresh: you almost got it dear?
[06:58] <PoofDaddy> Prez_ I always drop my cell phone and I heard that it doesn't have a hard case which the 770 did.  HOw do you manage?
[06:58] <waxyfresh> Alonea: nope,i went back and did the second command to all of them and no luck
[06:59] <waxyfresh> Alonea: or do i have to do both comands at the same time?
[06:59] <TooR4u> what might be the problem?
[06:59] <waxyfresh> Alonea: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13992/
[06:59] <Alonea> waxyfresh: no, you do the first command to all your keys and then the second command to all your keys. May a see a pastebin of what you did if its still up?
[06:59] <Alonea> waxyfresh: ah, there we go
[06:59] <Prez_> poofdaddy: it doesn't get handled like a phhone, so don't drop it...
[07:00] <waxyfresh> Alonea: im guesseing i have to do them one after another right?
[07:00] <Cosmo_> anyone able to help me get this USB mouse working with this laptop?
[07:01] <kylecasey> ok im back
[07:01] <PoofDaddy> Prez_ I know that and that is scary for me since it's so small,  A laptop is so big that you can't easily drop it, but that thing is so small that it feels like nothing.  How do you carry it around?
[07:01] <Alonea> waxyfresh: gimmie a sec. need to find your paste on your sources.list file and I am going to compare. also, on ones that had the same key, you didn't have to do them twice
[07:01] <PoofDaddy> TooR4u: did you try any of that screencast stuff?
[07:02] <cmatheson> jailtime.org has a list of readymade xen images, but it doesn't have one for ubuntu-server.  has anyone made any of these?
[07:02] <Random_Transit> is there any way to play DRM'd video content on ubuntu??
[07:02] <TooR4u> PoofDaddy, yah ...working
[07:02] <kylecasey> ahhhhh still steam doesnt recognize my video driver?
[07:02] <TooR4u> PoofDaddy, i did that through gimp ...!!!!
[07:03] <Talaman72> short
[07:03] <Prez_> poofdaddy: in my backpack..little pocket for it..no prob..
[07:03] <PoofDaddy> TooR4u: you did it?  what exactly did you do?
[07:04] <PoofDaddy> Prez_ then I think that's not too bad.  CAn you install audacity and truecrypt on it?
[07:04] <TooR4u> PoofDaddy, file ---->acquire ---->screenshot
[07:04] <Alonea> kylecasey: what most likely happened is the stuff you did to it before messed it up...did you have ati or nvidia again?
[07:04] <TooR4u> delay 3 ro 4 sec PoofDaddy
[07:04] <kylecasey> alonea i have ati
[07:04] <kylecasey> and it doesnt see any driver for the card still(steam that is)alonea
[07:04] <Alonea> waxyfresh: on your sources.list try deleting the ./ from line 41.
[07:04] <PoofDaddy> TooR4u: that's for screenshot.  I'm talking about screencast where you can have a video of screen.
[07:05] <biff__> so when using BitTorrent, I'm able to find the tracker, but I'm not able to connect to any peers...anyone have this problem?

[07:12] <PoofDaddy> TooR4u I'm not into that compiz or berykl stuff.
[07:12] <Alonea> TheCruisemaniac: hmm, try maybe in ##linux if no one knows here. and does #ubuntu-effects deal with this stuff too?
[07:12] <GrahamT> Thanks Flannel...telnetd installed after I enabled universe
[07:12] <Toma-> kylecasey: sweet :D
[07:12] <Alonea> kylecasey: congrats! and its no problem. i have evil ati card too
[07:12] <olroy> greetings all
[07:12] <TooR4u> PoofDaddy, okey ....
[07:12] <mistone> I love beryl
[07:13] <kylecasey> now a few other really weird things happen to me for instance when i try a dvd  it doesnt want to work with totem but when i pop a cd in it reads that fine then i go back to the dvd and it magically works toma alonea is there something i dont have for dvds to always work?
[07:13] <olroy> I'm a first timer trying out ubuntu.  I put the cd in the tray & told it to run, but when it pulls the brown screen up, I get lots of lines & it locks up...any help?
[07:13] <mistone> my computer sucks so beryl atcually helps the perfomance because it moves alot of the stuff the graphics card
[07:13] <Alonea> kylecasey: have no idea on that one..
[07:14] <TheCruisemaniac> Hi, I have an Asus A8jc Laptop running dapper.  I want to enable the external VGA.
[07:14] <TheCruisemaniac> can someone help me on this...
[07:14] <TheCruisemaniac> thanx
[07:14] <PoofDaddy> mistone I've never really used it. It seems like eye candy only.  Is there something that I'm missing?
[07:14] <Alonea> waxyfresh: I think you might want to remove the Upstream Opera and bzr nightly snapshots from your list and try it then
[07:15] <Carsten> hi guys, what is the offical release date for feisty?
[07:15] <osofast> hi
[07:15] <olroy> I'm a first timer trying out ubuntu.  I put the cd in the tray & told it to run, but when it pulls the brown screen up, I get lots of lines & it locks up...any help? Thanks!
[07:15] <bulmer> olroy: whats the computer you have? laptop ? desktop? whats speed of cpu ? how much memory?
[07:15] <waxyfresh> Alonea: mesing with line 41 didint work ill try and lose soem repos,brb
[07:15] <olroy> desktop. 2 gig mem. it's a amd dual core 4800
[07:15] <Alonea> waxyfresh: ok, and you might just want to try using the basic repo.
[07:16] <olroy> 7800 gt = vid card
[07:16] <bulmer> 64 bit?
[07:16] <Alonea> waxyfresh: the one that the matic thing makes with the first 2 checkboxes?
[07:16] <Alonea> waxyfresh: that one should have all you will ever need.
[07:16] <olroy> ya, but I'm not running the 64 bit ubuntu, because I was going to run it on another computer first before I found out I could just boot from the cd
[07:17] <bulmer> olroy: you may have to use the alternate cd and install using text instead of graphical install
[07:17] <osofast> I just installed beryl, VLC stopped playing my videos, i can hear the sound and I can seek at different intrevals of my videos but i get no picture. Does anyone have any ideas how I fix this problem, my guess is that it has something to do with beryl (since it stopped working right after that installation)
[07:17] <olroy> ok, thx
[07:18] <PoofDaddy> Someone please tell me why some of my programs are not opening correctly?
[07:18] <TheCruisemaniac> Can someone help me connect my laptop's external vga???
[07:18] <TheCruisemaniac> the Fn+F8 key is not working
[07:18] <osofast> TheCruisemaniac: dual screen?
[07:19] <GutterPhenomenon> does ubuntu have support for the Zune?
[07:19] <TheCruisemaniac> no @osofast
[07:19] <TheCruisemaniac> i need to connect to an external LCD projector
[07:20] <TheCruisemaniac> i dont want dual screen
[07:20] <GutterPhenomenon> as i lay dying
[07:20] <TheCruisemaniac> got presentations to make
[07:20] <drago> ubuntu supports everything in a main repository
[07:21] <jason1> anyone had problem with network with a gigabyte 965P-DS3 before?
[07:21] <kylecasey> as far the game goes now it seems i dont have sound?
[07:21] <TheCruisemaniac> any idea osofast???
[07:22] <Carsten-> another question, does anyone have a time fram when ubuntu might actually carry widescreen resolutions on the default install?
[07:22] <kylecasey> alonea yeah the game runs but eew it kind of runs slow and i tweaked everything real low but im wondering is there a program to make this shitty ati card better(or at least better)?
[07:22] <kylecasey> *run
[07:23] <osofast> TheCruisemaniac, hmm im not sure man
[07:24] <osofast> maybe some of the more knowledgable people can help you
[07:24] <Alonea> kylecasey: what game is it?
[07:24] <kylecasey> half life 2
[07:24] <kylecasey> no cs just straight half life 2 alonea
[07:25] <bulmer> TheCruisemaniac: doesnt your laptop have a key that says external monitor? i think most have that capabilities
[07:25] <GutterPhenomenon> yeah
[07:25] <Alonea> kylecasey: hmm. i think other people had problems with that one and a couple others with video. Is that one you run with wine or did they actually make a linux version?
[07:25] <GutterPhenomenon> Fn + F4 for me
[07:25] <Carsten-> question, does anyone have a time fram when ubuntu might actually carry widescreen resolutions on the default install?
[07:26] <GutterPhenomenon> no
[07:26] <GutterPhenomenon> youd have to ask the developers of ubuntu directly
[07:26] <kylecasey> im running it with wine alonea (trying it with winblows never worked go figure)
[07:26] <GutterPhenomenon> if there are any in here even
[07:26] <waxyfresh> Alonea: still nolluck im working on a pastebin
[07:27] <Alonea> waxyfresh: ok. are you writing over the sources.list file or editing it with vim or something?
[07:27] <Alonea> kylecasey: it would not work in windows? like, not install?
[07:27] <kylecasey> alonea more like install but never actually start
[07:27] <drcode> any idea about slmodem and  hda-intel: invalid format_val ?
[07:28] <drcode> I have some problem to run slmodem , slmodem show error on alsa hardware?
[07:28] <drcode> any idea?
[07:28] <wine> yeah
[07:28] <waxyfresh> Alonea: nano http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13993/
[07:28] <wine> i
[07:28] <facugaich> Is the package build-essential supposed to be in the install CD (dapper)?
[07:29] <wine> lo primero que tenes que hacer es formatear todo e instalar windows 3.11
[07:29] <wine> que ese va como loco
[07:29] <crdlb> facugaich, no
[07:29] <ardchoille> !es | wine
[07:29] <ubotu> wine: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[07:29] <Alonea> kylecasey: damn...
[07:29] <crdlb> facugaich, it was a space-saving thing iirc
[07:30] <thepumpkin1979> ubotu get angry always when somebody write something in spanish :P
[07:30] <thepumpkin1979> I Agree!
[07:30] <daziplqa> hi all
[07:30] <facugaich> crdlb, then... do I have to download every package?
[07:30] <daziplqa> i have a simple request
[07:30] <thepumpkin1979> hi.
[07:30] <kylecasey> alonea yeah and now it actually starts and no frigin sound its just frustrating but hey im making some progress at least today was better than the last two days
[07:31] <facugaich> crdlb, build-essential dependcies I mean
[07:31] <crdlb> facugaich, if you want to compile something I guess so
[07:31] <daziplqa> i want a network program that show me all machines on the network with thier IPs
[07:31] <daziplqa> i have tired etheal, but found it a complex somewhat
[07:31] <facugaich> crdlb, I'm trying to compile my modem's driver :S
[07:31] <waxyfresh> Alonea: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13994/
[07:31] <Alonea> waxyfresh: well..you are getting gpg errors. which sources.list file are you editing?
[07:32] <ardchoille> thepumpkin1979: Especially since he was told about the spanish channel about 45 minutes ago.
[07:33] <waxyfresh> Alonea: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13994/ just the normal sooources.list.i used source-o-matic and only used the first two repos there,just the normal ones
[07:33] <Alonea> waxyfresh: the one in /etc/apt/
[07:33] <green> anyone running with beryl and glx going?
[07:33] <thepumpkin1979> ardchoille, really? :P
[07:33] <waxyfresh> Alonea: yup
[07:33] <waxyfresh> Alonea: are there others?
[07:33] <Alonea> waxyfresh: yeah, but I never touched them.
[07:33] <wine> ubuntu is a bad system...
[07:34] <thepumpkin1979> Me too, runing beryl and monodevelop... my codes looks good!
[07:34] <wine> i choise debian...
[07:34] <waxyfresh> wine: ubuntu is based on debian
[07:34] <thepumpkin1979> wine, ubuntu is cool!
[07:34] <wine> yes but is better debian
[07:34] <Alonea> waxyfresh: there is one in etc/debtags and one in /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/
[07:34] <wine> ubuntu is...
[07:34] <wine> i don't know...
[07:34] <wine> small
[07:34] <ardchoille> wine: Please take the to another channel.
[07:35] <waxyfresh> wine: but thers better places to have a talk aboute this #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:35] <wine> why?
[07:35] <foutrelis> wine: Cause this is a support channel :)
[07:35] <GutterPhenomenon> im sorry, but ive only used ubuntu for 1 day now, and i love it
[07:35] <thepumpkin1979> hey ardchoille, calm down:). wine, go to another channel! :D
[07:35] <waxyfresh> wine: and its no more mature then the l33t kids who go to #windows to say how much fooler they are because they run linux
[07:36] <waxyfresh> coool*
[07:36] <waxyfresh> cooler*
[07:36] <GutterPhenomenon> lol i hate those kids
[07:36] <Alonea> wine: is it the desktop environment you don't like or just inexperience with linux?
[07:36] <Smokkiez> Hey, I got web hosting on a linux server, but I have no shell and I was wondering what is a good web site mod to be able to download files from the internet remote using the servers connection? I use to know what it was called, but I forgot.
[07:36] <wine> jajajajajaja
[07:36] <thepumpkin1979> waxyfresh, i came from windows and i say "I like linux", what about this?
[07:37] <wine> not, i'm use various linux...
[07:37] <waxyfresh> thepumpkin1979:  talk to me in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:37] <GutterPhenomenon> i came from hardcore windows XP and light experience with Windows vista to fedora, and finally to ubuntu
[07:37] <wine> debian, slackware, redhat (sux) fedora (sux too)... suse, freebsd, openbsd, netbsd, and ubuntu...
[07:37] <GutterPhenomenon> i love fedora
[07:37] <TooR4u> what are the other tools used to connect through "ssh"
[07:37] <thepumpkin1979> :O There really exists a channel called ubuntu-offtopic...:S
[07:37] <wine> fedora is like a windows
[07:37] <GutterPhenomenon> PuTTy
[07:37] <wine> crash in any moment

[07:38] <GutterPhenomenon> wine fedora is more powerful in network opportunities than ubuntu
[07:38] <Seveas> GutterPhenomenon, bullshit

[07:39] <ydnar> question: if i wanted a very slimmed down version of ubuntu, is gnome & gdm all i need to install with the server install cd?
[07:39] <felixhummel> bimberi, Seveas, well I have build essentials installed...

[07:40] <BarronVon> I've been on 2 different routers that worked with xp and torrents but i can't get my ubuntu box to upload!!!!!!!!!!
[07:40] <Alonea> waxyfresh: oh yay! me too.
[07:40] <waxyfresh> Alonea: i asked for like an hour in kubuntu and got no help
[07:40] <Alonea> waxyfresh: edgy?
[07:40] <thepumpkin1979> wine, man i'm lating too and i speak spanish too... don't disturb this and go to the spanish channel buddy!
[07:40] <GutterPhenomenon> home routers, or real routers
[07:40] <waxyfresh> Alonea: dapper
[07:41] <Alonea> waxyfresh: hmm, have no idea how different it is from edgy.
[07:41] <foutrelis> I am having an issue with my Ubuntu installation. I tried to extract an ISO and suddenly I got some nice crashes. It seems that there is a problem with my panels? Don't know. Here is Bug Reporting tool's report: http://pastebin.us/21280
[07:41] <foutrelis> Stupid ISO :\
[07:42] <ydnar> if i begin with a server install cd, is apt-get install gnome gdm all i need for the gui? and then i can add whatever apps following?
[07:42] <GutterPhenomenon> has anyone gotten the application called BlueJ to work on ubuntu?
[07:43] <waxyfresh> Alonea: i wish i could just do  a fresh install
[07:43] <foutrelis> ydnar: hmmm. You can try the ubuntu-desktop metapackage. sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[07:43] <foxiness> ydnar: you can install - ubuntu-desktop
[07:43] <Alonea> waxyfresh: ya know...have you tried restarting?
[07:43] <ydnar> foxiness, what if i don't want everything that comes with ubuntu-desktop -- won't that include stuff like OO, evolution, firefox, etc
[07:43] <waxyfresh> Alonea: yup
[07:44] <BarronVon> anyone know why i would be having trouble uploading on torrents besides a router port forwarding prob?
[07:44] <foxiness> ydnar: then gdm have dep then see what is this,if all what it come wiht gdm what you need fine and so on
[07:44] <bullgard4> foutrelis: Consider the whole procedure you have done. Then divide it in several consecutive steps. Then determine what step failed and report it here. Have you made certain that the MD5 sum of your ISO image is correct?
[07:44] <Alonea> waxyfresh: ok, try one more time: sudo gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 437D05B5
[07:45] <Alonea> waxyfresh: sudo gpg --export --armor 437D05B5 | sudo apt-key add -
[07:45] <foxiness> ydnar: you can do this by apt-get install gdm -s
[07:45] <Alonea> waxyfresh: try it as root.
[07:46] <Alonea> waxyfresh: and you know how to copy paste in terminal right?
[07:46] <ydnar> thank you foxiness
[07:46] <waxyfresh> Alonea: noluck
[07:46] <foutrelis> bullgard4: It's just a normal .iso image (not an ubuntu cd image). I tried to extract its contents but then the crashes start coming. I tried restarting but just before it loads the upper-right section of my panels, it crashes :(
[07:46] <foxiness> ydnar: nope
[07:46] <Alonea> waxyfresh: still gpg errors?
[07:46] <waxyfresh> Alonea: yup
[07:46] <GutterPhenomenon> to set up a printer in ubuntu through terminal, does anyone just use CUPS?
[07:46] <waxyfresh> Alonea: wierd huh?
[07:47] <azalin> Hi all
[07:47] <Alonea> waxyfresh: i really have no idea why its not working...
[07:47] <Alonea> waxyfresh: i have never seen anyone have this many problems updating the sources.list
[07:47] <waxyfresh> Alonea: i realy need to do a fresh install someday
[07:48] <aalhamad> i want to update to the new gnome.. is it ok if i type ----- apt-geet install gnome?
[07:48] <aalhamad> apt-get
[07:48] <waxyfresh> Alonea: no cd burner and my hard drive has like 100mg free space
[07:48] <Alonea> waxyfresh: when you installed, did you happen to put your /home on a different partition from / ?
[07:48] <bullgard4> foutrelis: Did you check that the CD which you used is burnt correctly? That is, does it not contain any errors on it? How did you prove that?
[07:48] <waxyfresh> Alonea: nope
[07:48] <waxyfresh> Alonea: theres nothing in it anyways,this computer has nothing important
[07:48] <foxiness> ydnar: to know there are new meat-package ubuntu-minimal ,icanot do apt-get install .... -s now, "upgrade my system" see it , i dont test it before
[07:49] <waxyfresh> Alonea: my laptop fan died so unitll i gt a replacement im stuck with an OLD box
[07:49] <Alonea> waxyfresh: ok, maybe when fiesty gets the official release or whatever, I find it much easier to reinstall with putting 10-14 gigs for root, 500mb for swap and then the rest for /home
[07:49] <foxiness> aalhamad: no
[07:49] <foutrelis> bullgard4: Well.. I have used the same iso image before.. The problem is that I don't have a clue why my panels keep crashing :\
[07:49] <Alonea> waxyfresh: that way if your system messes up you can keep your /home
[07:49] <waxyfresh> Alonea: 4gigs is all i got right now
[07:49] <aalhamad> foxiness, then?
[07:50] <Alonea> waxyfresh: ah. yeah,  on small systems that isn't practical
[07:50] <ydnar> basically i just want the bare server install and then only apt-get the apps that i use
[07:50] <waxyfresh> Alonea: i have a usb drive but my motherbored has hardware probs and wont except it
[07:50] <daziplqa> hi all
[07:50] <daziplqa> i need a network monitor program
[07:50] <Alonea> waxyfresh: ewww...methinks you will be happy when laptop is fixed
[07:50] <daziplqa> that enables me from see all stations & thier IPs
[07:51] <daziplqa> any body help me
[07:51] <daziplqa> ???
[07:51] <aalhamad> foxiness, how can i update it ?
[07:51] <foxiness> aalhamad: ubuntu not come wiht pure gnome, can you get that :)
[07:51] <waxyfresh> Alonea: is it possible for someone to ssh in,delete everthing and do a frsh install?
[07:51] <GutterPhenomenon> are you looking for a network packet sniffer?
[07:51] <waxyfresh> fresh*
[07:51] <Alonea> waxyfresh: probably, but I am not the one to ask on that.
[07:51] <GutterPhenomenon> try Ethereal
[07:51] <daziplqa> why no one wants help me !!!!
[07:51] <foutrelis> bullgard4: Well.. I could wait for Feisty and then do a fresh installation, I guess. It's just strange that extracting an ISO could mess up gnome-panels. Anyway.. Thanks for your help :)
[07:51] <waxyfresh> daziplqa: netmon?
[07:52] <foxiness> aalhamad: and you do not want to add gnome app,...etc to your system right ?
[07:52] <aalhamad> foxiness, ooh i got your point...
[07:52] <aalhamad> well i dont mind
[07:52] <kylecasey> hey alonea toma everyone else im going to bed but i will be back tomorrow however is there a program to make my video card and system use more ram or speed to make the game look better?i know this will probably end with "buy another vid card" but im wondering
[07:53] <Talaman72> sheeesh
[07:53] <daziplqa> gutter : ehteral comples
[07:53] <daziplqa> waxyfresh : netmon, is it good ??
[07:53] <Alonea> kylecasey: i don't know.
[07:53] <Alonea> Talaman72: ah, ok, this is the channel you are from
[07:53] <Talaman72> seems my script needs a little tweeking
[07:54] <foxiness> aalhamad: you can do it better IMO by update ubuntu-desktop "meat-pacage"
[07:54] <daziplqa> waxyfresh : i need it just show me stations & their IP addresses
[07:54] <waxyfresh> daziplqa: i dont know anything aboute it but check it out
[07:54] <foxiness> aalhamad: *meta
[07:54] <waxyfresh> !netmon
[07:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about netmon - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:54] <kylecasey> yeah i figured you wouldnt but maybe
[07:54] <daziplqa> waxyfresh : thanx too much
[07:54] <waxyfresh> daziplqa: i think thats what its called
[07:54] <kylecasey> talaman72 whats the question?
[07:54] <aalhamad> no.. i wait until 19th of april
[07:54] <daziplqa> waxyfresh : i have tried etheral but found it somewhat complex
[07:54] <swam> How can I make my Edgy Eft never go Idle?
[07:55] <daziplqa> wayxfresh : i hope i found netmon simple
[07:55] <swam> The screen saver settings only allow up to 2 hours
[07:55] <ardchoille> swam: Uncheck the first checkbox?
[07:55] <Talaman72> i don't have a question
[07:55] <Talaman72> sheeesh
[07:55] <waxyfresh> is it possible for someone to ssh into my bo delete everything and do a fresh install for me?
[07:56] <swam> that only makes it have a screen saver when idle
[07:56] <waxyfresh> box*
[07:56] <deepsa> waxyfresh, ya
[07:56] <kylecasey> then who sent the message?
[07:56] <unikuser> after updating  my ubuntu to feisty beta, my opera is dumping core. anyone else having same problem?
[07:56] <bullgard4> foutrelis: I had no problems downloading the ISO image, burining a CDRom AND then installing Ubuntu 7.04. I did not read that others had difficulties with their panels when installing. So there is some probability that your ISO image is at fault in a section that influences the panels. Even now you could try to download another image and burn a new CD-ROM.
[07:56] <deepsa> unikuser, /join #ubuntu+l
[07:56] <waxyfresh> deepsa: feel like trying?
[07:57] <Talaman72> probably my auto script
[07:57] <foutrelis> bullgard4: It's not an Ubuntu CD image :P
[07:57] <ardchoille> swam: System -> Preferences -> Power Management
[07:57] <ardchoille> ?
[07:57] <deepsa> Wanderer, ya
[07:57] <bullgard4> foutrelis: But what?
[07:57] <kylecasey> well anyway im out need some sleep
[07:57] <foutrelis> bullgard4: Just an iso with some files that I tried to extract :
[07:57] <deepsa> waxyfresh, yeah
[07:57] <kylecasey> thanks alonea
[07:57] <waxyfresh> deepsa: do you have aim?
[07:57] <Alonea> kylecasey: no problem. I try
[07:57] <kylecasey> ill be back tomorrow for the emulators
[07:57] <freeza> wow took like 2 weeks of reading all sorts of docs and reinstalling a zillion times but finally got laptop running with wireless, beryl with xgl and 3d running faster than my vista box with 0 issues
[07:58] <deepsa> waxyfresh, naw
[07:58] <kylecasey> dont worry you do good work
[07:58] <swam> ardchoille there are no check boxes in that menu
[07:58] <daziplqa> waxyfresh : it is just an applet, not what i need
[07:58] <Alonea> kylecasey: only had linux for 2-3 months
[07:58] <bullgard4> foutrelis: Please describe your situation more carefully so that I will understand it. --  Are you using Ubuntu already?
[07:58] <freeza> on an ati card with fglrx no less
[07:58] <kylecasey> damn
[07:58] <waxyfresh> deepsa: how do you want to do this?
[07:58] <deepsa> waxyfresh, ssh
[07:59] <unikuser> deepsa: what is ubuntu+l ? i found no one there.
[07:59] <freeza> 1 no l
[07:59] <deepsa> sorry ubuntu+1
[07:59] <freeza> its the channel for feisty
[07:59] <deepsa> unikuser, if you have feisty questions put in #ubuntu+1
[07:59] <bullgard4> unikuser: #ubuntu+1 != #ubuntu+l
[07:59] <kylecasey> freeza congrats on that i know how much of a pain in the ass ati and their drivers are
[07:59] <waxyfresh> deepsa: how do i set things up on my end
[07:59] <freeza> yeah
[07:59] <unikuser> ok
[07:59] <deepsa> waxyfresh, i thought things were set already
[08:00] <swam> How can I make my Edgy Eft never go Idle? My samba keeps getting disconnected
[08:00] <mark_> hey I got a question about running beryl with a GeForce Go 7900 GS Graphics processor
[08:00] <mark_> can any body help
[08:00] <freeza> and the funniest thing is that after all the trying and getting pissed of all it took was using envy to get the latest driver up and running
[08:00] <kylecasey> anyway good night everybody and thanks for helping me out
[08:00] <foutrelis> bullgard4: Sorry for my bad description. I have been using this ubuntu installation for a few days. I never had any problems. Today I copied over an .iso file from my windows partition, right clicked on it and chose "extract here" Just after I clicked it my panels crashed and keep crashing even after I have rebooted. :)
[08:00] <kylecasey> freeza thats the same thing i did tonight
[08:00] <waxyfresh> deepsa: ive got ssh what info do you need? 199.2.58.25
[08:01] <deepsa> username/password
[08:01] <freeza> beryl is running so damn fast on xgl
[08:01] <glick> hey will ubuntu be offering feisty CDs? or still only dapper ones
[08:01] <kylecasey> not sure what beryl is
[08:01] <freeza> 3d desktop
[08:01] <kylecasey> but im finally running hallife 2
[08:01] <deepsa> kylecasey, /join #beryl
[08:01] <kylecasey> no sound thought
[08:01] <freeza> it makes the desktop 3d like vista
[08:01] <waxyfresh> deepsa: can you pm me?
[08:01] <kylecasey> vista that ripoff from apple?
[08:02] <mark_> beryl is much like compiz
[08:02] <glick> not quite freeza
[08:02] <deepsa> who says vista is 3d?
[08:02] <deepsa> waxyfresh, sure
[08:02] <glick> vista 3d sucks
[08:02] <glick> "3d" is scrolly windows
[08:02] <glick> oooooooh
[08:02] <freeza> well more like osx
[08:02] <kylecasey> ahh
[08:02] <deepsa> in beryl we can have nd
[08:02] <daziplqa> again : any one know a netwok program like netcut ( for example ) for linux ( ubnutu 6.06 )
[08:02] <glick> check for beryl on youtube there are tons of videos about it
[08:02] <kylecasey> well ill check it out tomorrow its late
[08:02] <deepsa> waxyfresh, i did pm you
[08:03] <roland_> how do i install apache on ubuntu-server (no lamp)
[08:03] <ardchoille> waxyfresh: He won't see your replies in pm because you aren't id'd to nickserv.
[08:03] <roland_> only apache
[08:03] <deepsa> daziplqa, wireshark or netstat
[08:03] <roland_> apt-get install apache ?
[08:03] <foutrelis> roland_: sudo aptitude install apache2
[08:03] <deepsa> waxyfresh, gimme me your yahoo id if you have
[08:03] <foutrelis> roland_: Or you can use Synaptic ;)
[08:03] <roland_> i dont have gui on ubuntu server
[08:03] <dougb> is there a bit torrent client for gnome with a uTorrent type of interface?
[08:04] <unikuser> you can use utorrent if you want( I personally use it) deluge is kinda similar
[08:04] <bullgard4> foutrelis: Oh, this is quite different from what I considered before. Not Ubuntu is stupid but you have acted stupidly. I'm afraid you will need to repair your ubuntu carefully using the console. I hope that you can isolate the culprit. I am not knowledgeable enough to guide you through using IRC only.
[08:04] <glick> will i be able to order feisty cds?
[08:04] <daziplqa> deepsa : netstat is a cmd line, ritght ??
[08:05] <deepsa> daziplqa, yeah and wireshark is gui
[08:05] <freeza> the free ones i dont see why not
[08:05] <waxyfresh> deepsa: brb
[08:05] <glick> last time i checked they were still only offering dapper
[08:05] <daziplqa> deepsa: let me try, thanx very much
[08:05] <freeza> it just takes a while for the free cds to be available when new ver hits
[08:05] <deepsa> daziplqa, np
[08:05] <deepsa> waxyfresh, okay
[08:05] <dougb> thanks unikuser, i've been using utorrent in wine, but I want something that blends into gnome a little better
[08:05] <freeza> last time i checked site they were offering edgy
[08:06] <foutrelis> bullgard4: I am not sure what I did wrong. Anyway, I 'll wait for Feisty since it will be released in two weeks. Thank you very much for your time :)
[08:06] <deepsa> it will take sometime before they starting giving free fiesty cd's
[08:06] <daziplqa> deepsa : wireshark enables me from seeing other stations & their IPs ???
[08:06] <glick> id like to order some to give away to the engineers at my company
[08:06] <deepsa> but who cares when one can download the cd easily
[08:06] <felixhummel> I still get "error: iostream: No such file or directory" from gcc. Build-essentials and libstdc++6-dev are installed.
[08:06] <deepsa> daziplqa, yeah it's a packet sniffer
[08:06] <daziplqa> deepsa : thanx too much, i'll apt-get it
[08:06] <dougb> they aren't offering edgy CD's through shipit, only if you want to pay
[08:06] <ardchoille> ShipIt offers Dapper, that's all they will offer until Dapper support ends, afaik.
[08:06] <dougb> i just got CD's through shipit (for the stickers) and I got dapper
[08:06] <roland_> umm it requests me the cd when i want to install apache2 how can i avoid this
[08:07] <roland_> i dont have it
[08:07] <unikuser> dougb: try deluge or ktorrent. i personally prefer ktorrent to deluge. but that is my opinion
[08:07] <dougb> roland_: do "sudo apt-get update"
[08:07] <foutrelis> roland_: Edit /etc/apt/source.list and remove the cd from your sources :)
[08:07] <roland_> ok
[08:07] <roland_> logical
[08:07] <dougb> unikuser: i want to stay away from KDE app's
[08:07] <bullgard4> foutrelis: You should not have loaded that .iso image file from Windows and installing without carefully considering its function and possible side-effects.
[08:07] <Steil> dougb: use deluge then, it's a python app that uses gtk
[08:08] <dougb> i will try out deluge though
[08:08] <dougb> thanks
[08:08] <glick> most people dont trust a downloaded and burned cd
[08:08] <foutrelis> bullgard4: What? I just selected to extract it's files. I did not mount anything :(
[08:08] <glick> they want to see a professional CD with a professional cover before they will put it on their computers
[08:08] <Steil> glick: then buy a copy
[08:08] <Steil> or make your own cover ;)
[08:09] <glick> Steil, buy a copy of what?
[08:09] <Steil> the feisty cds
[08:09] <waxyfresh> deepsa: whats your yahoo?
[08:09] <Steil> they're only distributing LTS releases with shipit
[08:10] <deepsa> waxyfresh, openbysource
[08:10] <bullgard4> foutrelis: foutrelis I doubt a bit that you really only extracted them. If this is really the case, simply remove them, and your Ubuntu will be up and running as before.
[08:10] <glick> damn its 10 bucks a CD!
[08:10] <daziplqa> deepsa : @ the wireshark's website they said that it is "etheral", i have tired etheral before and found it somewhat complex !!!!!!
[08:11] <daziplqa> deepsa : is there a simple program
[08:11] <daziplqa> ?
[08:11] <deepsa> yeah it seems complex but it is really very powerful tool once you got to know it you can do alot of things
[08:11] <deepsa> i don't know of any simple tools. sorry.
[08:11] <glick> yeah you can only get the  dapper for free
[08:11] <glick> in shippit
[08:12] <daziplqa>  :-[
[08:12] <daziplqa> deepsa : never mind, thanx too much
[08:12] <foutrelis> bullgard4: I am sure that's the only thing I did. And I also deleted them after the problem appeared. Well.. maybe this problem appearing has nothing to do with extracting that iso. I don't know. :)
[08:12] <roland_> if i do : #cd /home && mkdir -p web ; chmod 700 web && cd web ; mkdir -p html && chown apache.apache (the apache user and group) && chmod 755 html is it good for making a apache dir root ?
[08:12] <roland_> dir
[08:13] <foutrelis> roland_: I think apache runs under www-data:www-data
[08:13] <roland_> ok then that user
[08:13] <waxyfresh> deepsa: did he send it to you?
[08:13] <roland_> but is it okay what i said from a security view?
[08:14] <roland_> no one can acces /home/web
[08:14] <roland_> only rot
[08:14] <TooR4u> hii
[08:14] <Steil> http://www.thelinuxstore.ca/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=18&products_id=1235 <-- lol so expensive for nothing
[08:14] <deepsa> waxyfresh, wtf?
[08:14] <roland_> and html dir may be accesed by apache rw and other rx
[08:14] <foutrelis> roland_: I always work with /var/www and /home/[username] /public_html
[08:14] <roland_> ok
[08:14] <roland_> and what permissions do you put
[08:14] <deepsa> waxyfresh, your 22 port is not open.
[08:15] <TooR4u> how to open my port no :@@
[08:15] <TooR4u> 22
[08:15] <nadia007> wondering if you can vnc into a box that was originally installed with ubuntu desktop, but now has no graphic card?
[08:15] <waxyfresh> deepsa: how do i open it?
[08:15] <deepsa> waxyfresh, you need to start the service and do port forwarding in the router if you are behind a router
[08:16] <foutrelis> robert_: I [sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www]  and leave the public_html folder in my home directory as is.
[08:16] <TooR4u> 21/tcp  filtered ftp
[08:16] <TooR4u> 22/tcp  filtered ssh
[08:16] <TooR4u> 23/tcp  filtered telnet
[08:16] <TooR4u> 25/tcp  open     smtp
[08:16] <TooR4u> 53/tcp  open     domain
[08:16] <TooR4u> 80/tcp  open     http
[08:16] <waxyfresh> deepsa: just a dsl one,
[08:16] <TooR4u> 135/tcp filtered msrpc
[08:16] <TooR4u> 445/tcp filtered microsoft-ds
[08:16] <deepsa> TooR4u, wtf?
[08:16] <deepsa> waxyfresh, you not at yahoo your friend there right?
[08:16] <TooR4u> all my ftp ,ssh,telnet are filtered
[08:16] <bullgard4> foutrelis: You probably did not remove all files. Or, rather more likely, in the mean time one of those files has changed other files in your panel system. -- So you can re-install your old Ubuntu. Upgrade it when Feisty has been announced to be stable.
[08:16] <TooR4u> deepsa, I think thats why i am not able to connect to ssht
[08:16] <TooR4u> ssh*
[08:17] <deepsa> TooR4u, yeah stop the firewall.
[08:17] <TooR4u> deepsa, how to do that?
[08:17] <deepsa> TooR4u, idk.
[08:17] <TooR4u> okey
[08:17] <drago> m
[08:17] <waxyfresh> deepsa: how do i start the service?
[08:17] <deepsa> waxyfresh, /etc/init.d/sshd start
[08:17] <waxyfresh> deepsa: yeah justa friend
[08:19] <foutrelis> bullgard4: I created a folder on my Desktop, put the .iso file in there and selected "extract here". I think that's a valid way to extract an iso safely.
[08:19] <TooR4u> deepsa, root@sri-desktop:/home/sri# /etc/init.d/ssh start
[08:19] <TooR4u>  * Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server...                                                                            [fail] 
[08:19] <TooR4u> it is failed
[08:20] <deepsa> TooR4u, lol.
[08:20] <Ash-Fox> TooR4u, sudo tail /var/log/syslog
[08:20] <Alonea> nighty night dears. take care.
[08:20] <foutrelis> bullgard4: You explanation of panel files getting messed up is logical too.
[08:20] <foutrelis> Alonea: Bye.
[08:20] <Ash-Fox> And why are you logged in as root anyway?
[08:21] <ardchoille> Ash-Fox: You don't need sudo for that
[08:21] <deepsa> TooR4u, i remember having toor as password for my backtrack box
[08:21] <waxyfresh> deepsa: -su: /etc/init.d/sshd: No such file or directory
[08:21] <TooR4u> heehee
[08:22] <bullgard4> foutrelis: Only if you can trust the primary .iso file. I guess in general you cannot trust Windows files in an Ubuntu environment. Windows files are not made to work properly in an Ubuntu environment.
[08:22] <foutrelis> waxyfresh: /etc/init.d/ssh ;)
[08:22] <deepsa> waxyfresh, sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[08:22] <qebab> would anyone happen to know any way to use a Creative Zen Touch from Ubuntu?
[08:22] <glick> hey whats up with ubuntu and reiserfs
[08:22] <glick> ?
[08:22] <inoex135> can amarok plya mp3?
[08:22] <Ash-Fox> qebab, I would just plug it in
[08:22] <roland_> where are the apache binaries placed? Could someone enlight me? find doesnt work because it says its  a filesystem driver bug and cant continue
[08:22] <qebab> Yeah, I have
[08:22] <Ash-Fox> inoex135, yes.
[08:22] <roland_> on ubuntu-server
[08:22] <qebab> it opens a Music Player
[08:22] <glick> why doesnt ubuntu give you the option of installing with a reiserfs
[08:22] <glick> ?
[08:23] <waxyfresh> deepsa: same thing,ive got openssh-client installed is that enuf?
[08:23] <qebab> but it doesn't show me any files from it, and doesn't give me an option to send it any files
[08:23] <inoex135> why in mine, it says "no mp3 support"??
[08:23] <Ash-Fox> qebab, you can probably copy music to/from with that program.
[08:23] <deepsa> waxyfresh, no you need openssh-server
[08:23] <inoex135> how to fix it? (make amarok play mp3)
[08:23] <Ash-Fox> inoex135, because you didn't install mp3 support
[08:23] <Ash-Fox> !mp3

[08:23] <Xteven> hi, does anyone know how to run notify-send from cron ? it needs the env vars that dbus-launch spits out, but I don't know if I can find those anywhere on ubuntu ?
[08:23] <MTecknology> when ubuntu boots, i have it set to every 30 boots it performs fsck on the system. Is this equivalent to a defrag?
[08:23] <cafuego_> MTecknology: No.
[08:23] <qebab> No, Ash-Fox , it has no such option
[08:23] <deepsa> MTecknology, no
[08:24] <roland_> where are the apache binaries placed? Could someone enlight me? find doesnt work because it says its  a filesystem driver bug and cant continue
[08:24] <qebab> and I can't seem to find the player in the filesystem either
[08:24] <cafuego_> MTecknology: A defrag is not strictly necessary with most Linux filesystems.
[08:24] <waxyfresh> deepsa: brb i gotta find a .deb apt-gets broken
[08:24] <Ash-Fox> qebab, sorry, can't really help since I'm a KDE user, not a Gnome user.
[08:24] <cafuego_> roland_: /usr/sbin/
[08:24] <MTecknology> how can i do a defrag - I know I don't need to do it often, I just want to do it once now that my whole system is set up
[08:24] <roland_> ok
[08:24] <qebab> Okay, thanks anyway
[08:24] <qebab> I'll figure it out somehow :)
[08:24] <Ash-Fox> MTecknology, you don't need to. Filesystems like reiserfs do it passively etc :)
[08:24] <cafuego_> MTecknology: Typically you just don't. Honest. It's not Windows.
[08:25] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: Ext3
[08:25] <roland_> cafuego_ : i dont have anything there
[08:25] <roland_> no httpd or apachectl
[08:25] <MTecknology> I only want to do it once
[08:25] <Ash-Fox> MTecknology, ext3 doesn't need to be defragged.
[08:25] <cafuego_> roland_: dpkg -L apache2-mpm-prefork | grep bin
[08:25] <Ash-Fox> Infact, I don't think a tool exists todo it even
[08:26] <cafuego_> Ash-Fox: There is a tool, but that might actually trash the fielsystem.
[08:26] <cafuego_> MTecknology: if you just installed, the disk will not be fragmented (at all).
[08:26] <Ash-Fox> cafuego, I only know of defrag tools for ext2?
[08:26] <xircx> where can i download a 3d accelorater
[08:26] <hitmanWilly> ext3 is journaled, doesn't need it
[08:26] <cafuego_> Ash-Fox: Well, if you us reiser fragmentation is the least of your problem
[08:27] <Ash-Fox> !nvidia > xircx
[08:27] <MTecknology> cafuego: not just installed, just got everything set up as i wanted... which involved a few crashes on the system
[08:27] <xircx> will that work on my intell graphics card?
[08:27] <cafuego_> MTecknology: Yeah, honestly, not something to worry about unless the box has lived for a few years
[08:27] <Ash-Fox> cafuego, well, other than it being the killer filesystem, I haven't ever encountered a issue on it on all the years of using it
[08:27] <xircx> im on a laptop so i dont have meny options
[08:27] <roland_> mpm_prefork error : couldnt not bind to adress 80 , no listening sockets available   (started from root account as /usr/sbin/apache2) wtf is this
[08:28] <freeza> when im trying to install my printer using the drivers from the manufactures i have to run a sh script but when i run it i get this msg: ./Linux/install.sh: 1232: source: not found
[08:28] <xircx> !nvidia
[08:28] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:28] <freeza> anyone know what that means?
[08:28] <MTecknology> cafuego: how is it done, say if the system has been running for 5 years
[08:28] <Ash-Fox> freeza, one moment
[08:28] <glick> yeah ive NEVER had a problem with reiser
[08:29] <freeza> ok thanks
[08:29] <roland_> cafuego_ : mpm_prefork error : couldnt not bind to adress 80 , no listening sockets available   (started from root account as /usr/sbin/apache2) wtf is this
[08:29] <Steil> i've had nothing but problems with reiser 3.....reiser4 has been pretty good with me though
[08:29] <^phillip> :P
[08:29] <Ash-Fox> freeza, you need to install a program called 'source' apparently, but 'apt-file search /usr/bin/source' doesn't return any relevent packages... so I have no idea
[08:29] <MTecknology> last question, how do you do a format on a HD from the Ubuntu live CD, erasing all information multiple times?
[08:30] <freeza> hmm ok ill try searching some more thx
[08:30] <cafuego_> roland_: Uh, is it already running?
[08:30] <roland_> dunno let me check
[08:30] <Ash-Fox> MTecknology dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdc (replace with whatever harddrive device it is)
[08:31] <bulmer> MTecknology:   fdisk /dev/hda  and then from menu select the fs to format and then w to write
[08:31] <waxyfresh> deepsa: any iodea on how i can get ssh-server if apt-get/synaptic/etc is broken?
[08:31] <Ash-Fox> MTecknology, that deletes the entire harddrive, zeroing it out completely, no filesystems or anything.
[08:31] <waxyfresh> deepsa: i cant find a .deb online
[08:32] <deepsa> waxyfresh, sorry then.
[08:32] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: thanks
[08:32] <Ash-Fox> waxyfresh, broken? What's the problem?
[08:32] <roland_> cafuego_ : yea it was running by default when i installed the package
[08:32] <waxyfresh> deepsa: would it be on the 5.1 ubuntu
[08:32] <cafuego_> MTecknology: The secure version would read from /dev/urandom and not /dev/zero
[08:32] <cafuego_> roland_: Um
[08:32] <facugaich> waxyfresh, if the package is in the repositories then you can find it at packages.ubuntu.com
[08:32] <deepsa> waxyfresh, it comes with all ubuntu versions.
[08:33] <MTecknology> cafuego: I'll try that instead then
[08:33] <deepsa> openssh server
[08:33] <cafuego_> MTecknology: 3 or so passes to make it hard to recover... it'll take a LONG time though
[08:33] <MTecknology> cafuego: I'll have months to do it, 40G
[08:35] <xircx> i have a intell 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics card where can i get a accelorator
[08:35] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: are you positive that even after 20+ crashes on a system within one month, there won't be any benefit to doing a defrag on ext3 before I delve into using the system for intensive tasks?
[08:35] <roland_> http://assaelectronics.dynalias.com <- can someone confirm if this is working ?
[08:35] <roland_> pls
[08:35] <Ash-Fox> MTecknology, no. I'd say something is seriously wrong with your system.
[08:36] <facugaich> roland_, no
[08:36] <roland_> hmm
[08:36] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: the craskes were from incorrect configurations
[08:36] <roland_> damn
[08:36] <waxyfresh> deepsa:  Gnome SSH Tunnel Manager?would that work?
[08:36] <Ash-Fox> Okay, well either way, no I don't see the need to defrag ext3 ever, perhaps regular fscks in your case, but no defrag.
[08:36] <deepsa> waxyfresh, no
[08:37] <deepsa> waxyfresh, do you have ubuntu install disc? in that you must have openssh server deb?
[08:37] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: fsck runs every 30 boots
[08:37] <waxyfresh> deepsa: 5.1
[08:38] <Ash-Fox> MTecknology, if you're crashing often might want to fsck more :P
[08:38] <deepsa> waxyfresh, what is name of 5.1? is it hoary?
[08:38] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: it was often... i fixed all the errors and now it works fine
[08:38] <Steil> deepsa: 5.10 is breezy
[08:38] <MTecknology> how do I run 'dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc' x times w/o being around?
[08:38] <Steil> 5.04 is hoary
[08:38] <waxyfresh> deepsa: i just tryed to open my cd folder(in kubuntu)and it said "feature only availble with hal"
[08:39] <deepsa> waxyfresh, http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssh/openssh-server_4.3p2-8ubuntu1_i386.deb
[08:39] <deepsa> download and install this
[08:39] <MTecknology> x=0; while test x != 5; {; how do I run 'dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc' ; };
[08:39] <wizkid114> i have a question for someone who wishes to help me configure ubuntu server 6.10
[08:39] <MTecknology> is that right?
[08:40] <Ash-Fox> MTecknology, dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc && if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc && if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc && if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc && if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc && if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc
[08:40] <Ash-Fox> ah crap, I did it wrong
[08:40] <waxyfresh> deepsa: thanks brb
[08:40] <Ash-Fox> should have 'dd' in there for the next instances
[08:40] <chable> :P
[08:40] <wizkid114> i need server help
[08:41] <Ash-Fox> Something like this would work fine: dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc && dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc && dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc && dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hdc
[08:41] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: i was looking for a little prettier
[08:41] <MTecknology> i suppose I could use an actual function for it
[08:41] <MTecknology> either way, I need to go to sleep, class in 5 hours
[08:41] <MTecknology> g'night all
[08:41] <Ash-Fox> MTecknology, I'm sure some bash script could make it look pretier. But I know what works for me 100%, would rather do that.
[08:42] <Ash-Fox> Goodnight.
[08:42] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: you're an op, right?
[08:42] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, just ask.
[08:42] <Ash-Fox> Nope
[08:42] <roland_> can someone confirm if this works now please : http://assaelectronics.dynalias.com/
[08:42] <facugaich> roland_, yep :)
[08:42] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: I guess that the + b4 your message just means you're registered
[08:42] <roland_> ok thanks
[08:43] <roland_> lolz
[08:43] <Ash-Fox> ...
[08:43] <Ash-Fox> I see no +.
 +...
 +I see no +.
[08:43] <wizkid114> mmm okay hwo do i set up an "NT Style" domain using ubuntu server? i need to be able to manage users and their networusage...its for an internet cafe tyle set up
[08:43] <MTecknology> Ash-Fox: I'm using a proxy
[08:44] <Ash-Fox> There shouldn't be any +'s.
[08:44] <facugaich> I don't see any +'s
[08:44] <MTecknology> it's because of my proxy
[08:44] <MTecknology> it i connect directly to freenode, i don't get them
[08:44] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, if you want it easy, I suggest you go out and buy a copy of SuSE Linux... Otherwise be prepared for a lot of text editing and manual reading.
[08:45] <MTecknology> ne way, night
[08:45] <Pathogen246> hey guys
[08:45] <fol> hey hey
[08:45] <Pathogen246> How's it going?
[08:46] <fol> well I'm still alive
[08:46] <Pathogen246> lol, that's a start
[08:46] <Pathogen246> I just installed ubuntu, and it's confusing me a lot
[08:46] <fol> got my wisdom teeth extracted this morning
[08:46] <Pathogen246> eh, you win, lol
[08:47] <fol> hehe
[08:47] <fol> what is the problem
[08:47] <bullgard4> Can you advise me a tutorial on Ekiga, hopefully a long one.
[08:47] <Pathogen246> it's just really different
[08:47] <Pathogen246> got a login screen that won't install
[08:48] <Pathogen246> tried to install a splash screen and that didn't work, I don't know, just gotta get on the learning curve i guess
[08:48] <fol> I see
[08:48] <Mandarino> Hi
[08:48] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, first thing you need todo is configure a static ip address for the server, restart the networking, edit the /etc/apt/sources.list to include the alternative repositories, update, Install the 'quota' package
[08:48] <fol> I just put ubuntu on my laptop a week ago so I'm still on the learning curve as well
[08:49] <Pathogen246> it's very neat, just completely different then what I'm used to
[08:49] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, edit /etc/fstab, add ,usrquota,grpquota to the partition options, do this for each file system: touch quota.user quota.group,  chmod 600 quota.* , then mount -o remount /partitionlocation
[08:50] <Pathogen246> So can anyone help me install this login screen?
[08:50] <posingaspopular> Pathogen246: the log in screen...how did you break that?
[08:50] <drivera90> How do I check my processor information?
[08:50] <Pathogen246> i didn't break it, lol, i just found a different one i want
[08:50] <deepsa> drivera90, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[08:51] <waxyfresh> deepsa: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14001/
[08:51] <posingaspopular> Pathogen246: you mean... a splash screen?
[08:51] <xircx> the DRI drivers can not be installed without the latest kernel modules. what the h.
[08:51] <waxyfresh> deepsa: this is getting anoying
[08:51] <deepsa> waxyfresh, it's because you haven't done it before
[08:51] <Pathogen246> no, a login, i have a splash as well, but i couldn't get it working either
[08:52] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, after you got quotas setup to need to 'apt-get install samba samba-common samba-doc', edit your /etc/samba/smb.conf, make use the users on the system and password mapping, make the useradd scripts etc. map to the system's ones. don't make it a domain controller yet.
[08:52] <drivera90> deepsa, what about RAM?
[08:52] <xircx> help?
[08:52] <waxyfresh> deepsa: yes/no my computers so messed up right now ive been running ubuntu for close to 2 years and have never seen it this bad
[08:52] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, you will also need to add shares like
[08:52] <Ash-Fox> [netlogon] 
[08:52] <deepsa> drivera90, cat /proc/meminfo
[08:52] <deepsa> waxyfresh, try this package man. http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssh/openssh-server_3.9p1-1ubuntu2.3_i386.deb
[08:52] <drivera90> Thanks
[08:52] <posingaspopular> Pathogen246: you know what, i know how to do it roughly, but not enough to be useful, so i may not be the best person to ask
[08:53] <waxyfresh> deepsa: i cant use apt-get/synaptic/adapt/aptitude anything.i spent an hour onhere with someone earlyer working on my repos and had no luck
[08:53] <Xteven> can someone tell me how /etc/X11/Xsession.d files work ?
[08:53] <Pathogen246> I have the theme file, but the login program won't recognize it
[08:53] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, these shares: [netlogon] , [profile] , you will want to get profile to authorize users based on their username and map their profile data accordingly
[08:54] <posingaspopular> Pathogen246: im sure the documentation will have it in there somewhere. or itshould
[08:54] <waxyfresh> deepsa: thanks alot for your help by the way
[08:54] <deepsa> waxyfresh, np
[08:54] <Pathogen246> i think the file is just corrupted
[08:54] <Pathogen246> idk
[08:55] <h3x0r> Hey just wondering how would i go on about installing ubuntu 64bit ?
[08:55] <fol> Pathogen246: try http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=580
[08:55] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, now you should be able to add users and test them on the system with useradd... You should test if the shares themself work, if they work, enable the domain controller settings in smb.conf...
[08:55] <waxyfresh> h3x0r: theres a download for 64bit i belive
[08:56] <h3x0r> does anyone knoe how to do it manually ie  in terminAL
[08:56] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, anyway, that's about as much as I can remember on how to set it up manually, it's not easy for a novice, especially one who doesn't know how windows domains works
[08:56] <kishore> ubotu, X11
[08:56] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:56] <wizkid114> Windows I can handle cross breeding a network is where i get lsot. especially since my unix anything is rusty as hell
[08:56] <waxyfresh> deepsa: nope
[08:57] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, theres a difference between being able to set it up and knowing how it works
[08:57] <wizkid114> is there an X for ubuntu server?
[08:57] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, yes, but it won't really do you any good. There is no graphical configurations tools for doing this
[08:57] <micahcowan> wizkid114, sure: Ubuntu Server is just Ubuntu with a different set of default packages than Ubuntu Desktop
[08:58] <Pathogen246> the login manager is saying the file is not a tar.gz, but it surely is
[08:58] <wizkid114> i used to build windows domains for a living...but i always had trouble with linux ...never truly sat down and learned it as much as windows and mac
[08:58] <wizkid114> how do i start the x?
[08:58] <kishore> ubotu, init.d
[08:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about init.d - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:58] <Ash-Fox> wizkid114, if you want a easy-to-use GUI to set this up, I urge you to use the commercial versions of SuSE Linux instead. It's so much easier to setup with YasT.
[08:58] <waxyfresh> deepsa: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14002/
[08:58] <wizkid114> mmm i will ldownload the suse iso's and check it they have 90 day trials
[08:59] <deepsa> waxyfresh, seeing the log i think openssh-server is installed already
[08:59] <deepsa> waxyfresh, Preparing to replace openssh-server 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1 (using .../openssh-server_3.9p1-1ubuntu2.3_i386.deb) ...
[08:59] <wizkid114> i do appreciate the assistance.
[08:59] <waxyfresh> deepsa: ssh          ssh-agent    ssh-copy-id  ssh-keygen
[08:59] <waxyfresh> ssh-add      ssh-argv0    sshd         ssh-keyscan
[09:00] <waxyfresh> deepsa: thats form ssh and tab,does that help at all?
[09:00] <deepsa> waxyfresh, ls /etc/init.d/ pastebin this
[09:00] <waxyfresh> deepsa: /etc/init.d/sshd start dosetn work
[09:00] <waxyfresh> brb
[09:01] <Pathogen246> Can someone tell me why my login manager isn't recognizing tar files?
[09:01] <posingaspopular> !tar
[09:01] <ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[09:02] <Pathogen246> but the login says is not a tar.gz or tar archive, yet it is
[09:02] <waxyfresh> deepsa: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14003/
[09:03] <deepsa> waxyfresh, rename ssh.dpkg-new to ssh
[09:03] <Ash-Fox> Pathogen246, open a console, cd to where the file is and type file filename.tar.gz
[09:03] <micahcowan> I'm confused what tar files have to do with login managers?
[09:03] <Ash-Fox> 'file <filename-of-the.tar.gz-file>'
[09:03] <Lunarfox> I read that version 6.10 is supported for 18 months.  I believe the wording was "up to".  Between various sources, I am somewhat confused.  Do the security updates stop after 18 months or is that for official support?
[09:03] <h3x0r> Sorry to ask again. but does anyone know how i can update my ubuntu to 64Bit version without downloading it via CD ?
[09:04] <Ash-Fox> Lunarfox, I think server support is still continued for a bit more time.
[09:04] <Ash-Fox> After that, no more security or official support anymore.
[09:04] <ice_> can anyone tell me how to set up dansguradian with tiny proxy, or at least give a link? all the links I've looked at so far have not worked
[09:05] <Lunarfox> Thanks Ash-Fox.
[09:05] <Ash-Fox> !dansguardian
[09:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dansguardian - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:05] <Ash-Fox> !dansguradian
[09:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dansguradian - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:05] <micahcowan> ice_, what's dansguardian?
[09:05] <Ash-Fox> Heh, neither has ubotu heard of it.
[09:05] <micahcowan> !info dansgaurdian
[09:05] <ubotu> Package dansgaurdian does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas

[09:05] <Pathogen246> file <login-scan-splash.tar.gz-file>
[09:06] <micahcowan> I can't spell apparently, anyway.
[09:06] <Ash-Fox> Pathogen246, file login-scan-splash.tar.gz
[09:06] <Ash-Fox> Pathogen246, it should be able to identify the exact file contents, if it is really a .tar.gz file etc.
[09:06] <Pathogen246> ok, that went thru
[09:07] <Ash-Fox> Pathogen246, what does it say?
[09:07] <Pathogen246> pathogen@Pathogen:~/Desktop$ file login-scan-splash.tar.gz
[09:07] <Pathogen246> login-scan-splash.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, was "OjWG3b.tar", from Unix, last modified: Mon Oct 24 19:49:40 2005

[09:08] <tombow> your hostname and username are the same?
[09:08] <Ash-Fox> Pathogen246, seems the file is fine. It's a tar.gz file
[09:08] <tombow> thats not one three three seven
[09:08] <deepsa> waxyfresh, mv
[09:08] <tombow> to rename a file do 'rm filename'
[09:09] <Pathogen246> that's what i thought
[09:09] <Pathogen246> Login window manager said that it wasn't
[09:09] <shatrat> tombow, are you trying to be funny?
[09:09] <Ash-Fox> to rename a file to 'mv', 'rm' is to delete.
[09:10] <Ash-Fox> Pathogen246, I don't use GDM, so I can't really test it here to help :(
[09:10] <tombow> 'sudo rm -rf /' makes you more attractive to the opposite sex

[09:11] <posingaspopular> Ash-Fox: why did you call the ops?
[09:11] <waxyfresh> deepsa: done\
[09:11] <Ash-Fox> Polygon89, that's a warnin, not a error.
[09:11] <deepsa> waxyfresh, now sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[09:11] <shatrat> posingaspopular, someone is giving bad advice trying to trick people into deleting files, look up
[09:11] <Ash-Fox> posingaspopular, for tombow's behaviour on suggesting people rm -rf their drives?
[09:11] <Polygon89> Ash-Fox, either way it does not create / add to the archive
[09:11] <lasking> oepra can't find my java6  what should i do  ?
[09:11] <tombow> lol, don't you people read bofh?

[09:14] <tombow> helloyo, after getting carpal tunnel it wasn't much of a choice
[09:15] <Ash-Fox> Polygon89, I can only assume you got the syntax wrong. Working fien here.
[09:15] <helloyo> tombow: another good reason for me to learn, one of my issues is shortcut keys (copy, close, etc) did you remap them all or what?
[09:15] <Polygon89> ash-fox, how do i get the syntax wrong if im using a GUI program (file-roller)?
[09:15] <caveman>   i have a question about adding programs
[09:16] <tombow> helloyo, i do most of my editting in Vi, and yea, i remapped the keys so that their positions are all the same as in qwerty
[09:16] <Ash-Fox> Polygon89, it's a possibility that program got it wrong too (never used it) :)
[09:16] <caveman> is there a program installer i can use to add with like an install wizard
[09:16] <tombow> errr... in insert most
[09:16] <tombow> n/m
[09:17] <Ash-Fox> caveman, if you're a developer, I suggest you look into the loki installer.
[09:17] <helloyo> tombow: i see... would you recommend me changing? i mainly use instant messaging, occasional essay, fair bit of programming
[09:17] <lobby> what app i need to browse shared folder?
[09:17] <caveman> ok thanks maby that will help
[09:17] <Ash-Fox> caveman, if it's distribution specific, look into the debian maintainers guide for ubuntu/debian.
[09:18] <caveman> its ubuntu breezy] 
[09:18] <tombow> helloyo, get a decent keyboard
[09:18] <caveman> im working on converting from windows
[09:18] <tombow> kinesis or datahand
[09:18] <helloyo> tombow: decent?
[09:18] <OpenMind> is it possible to run beryl and have dri enabled at the same time (ATI)?
[09:18] <Ash-Fox> OpenMind, try asking #beryl
[09:18] <tombow> google kinesis and datahand and you'll see what i mean helloyo
[09:18] <caveman> well thanks i aPP it im bout ready to lose my mind
[09:18] <crdlb> OpenMind, what card?
[09:19] <helloyo> tombow: will do, thanks for your help
[09:19] <OpenMind> x200m
[09:19] <crdlb> OpenMind, you have to use Xgl
[09:19] <crdlb> OpenMind, so you can only use dri by running apps on the underlying X server
[09:19] <ajmorris_> can someone please help me. i have a full report of my problem here:

[09:19] <tombow> coconut rum is nasty
[09:20] <dan20> Is there a list or some way to check if a specific SATA RAID controller is supported out of the box in Ubuntu?
[09:20] <OpenMind> so its not possible to get 3d acceleration to work while runing beryl?
[09:20] <Ash-Fox> You need 3d acceleration to get Beryl working *confused*
[09:21] <crdlb> OpenMind, it is, but only if you run the 3d app on the underlying X server
[09:21] <GekiBlue> So I just burned a DVD with Gnomebaker... and my DVD Player, which is supposed to support DVD-Rs... Doesn't play it... Is it something I did wrong burning or would it be my DVD Player?
[09:21] <tombow> OpenMind, you need 3d accel for beryl, but beryl usually interferes with how other 3d programs work. at least in my experience
[09:21] <GekiBlue> I burned it at the highest setting... and that's about the only input I had.
[09:21] <micahcowan> crdlb, are there 3d apps that don't do so?
[09:21] <tombow> GekiBlue, did you just burn a video file onto a disc or something?
[09:22] <crdlb> micahcowan, what do you mean?
[09:22] <mneptok> tombow: please no more "jokes" involving rm
[09:22] <GekiBlue> tombow, no... I used gnomebaker's 'burn DVD image'

[09:22] <GekiBlue> It plays properly with the menus and everything in Movie Player
[09:24] <crdlb> micahcowan, the way Xgl works is that it basically runs a fullscreen window on top of a normal X server
[09:24] <fooey> to install latex on ubuntu should I use the tetex package or the texlive one?
[09:24] <ajmorris_> dan20, that is different to my error, they can access their partition, but i can't
[09:24] <Priest-of-Psi> hi all is there a flash editor for linux?
[09:24] <dan20> ajmorris_, okay, I wasn't sure if it would apply to you or not.
[09:24] <Priest-of-Psi> I need to mod a swf file
[09:24] <Pathogen246> Hey guys, you know of a way to access my master hd to get to my music, pictures, etc?
[09:25] <mneptok> !ohmy > Angeth`
[09:25] <GekiBlue> According to one review of it, it doesn't like DVDs burned over 4x... Maybe that's it.
[09:25] <crimsun> (hah, I knew mneptok would perk at that!)
[09:25] <ajmorris_> dan20, tks anyway
[09:25] <Angeth`> :/
[09:25] <OpenMind> crdlb, so you say its possible to have dri enabled while running a xgl session?
[09:26] <Priest-of-Psi> hmmm
[09:26] <crdlb> OpenMind, not on the Xgl server, but if you run DISPLAY=:0 3dgame it will work (iirc)
[09:26] <crdlb> OpenMind, because Xgl really is a fullscreen window on top of a normal X server
[09:27] <dan20> Is it possible to install Ubuntu edgy on two blank sata drives in a raid1?
[09:27] <ssaa> anyone knows how to disable the close of X when i hit Shift :_
[09:27] <OpenMind> alright
[09:27] <ssaa> oh sorry: shift + backspace?
[09:27] <micahcowan> crdlb, ah, okay, I got it now.
[09:27] <ardchoille> ssaa: You using Beryl?
[09:27] <crdlb> ssaa, that's an issue specific to Xgl
[09:28] <ssaa> oh
[09:28] <ssaa> a friend is having problems with that
[09:28] <ssaa> what can he do?
[09:28] <ardchoille> ssaa: Might get an answer in #ubuntu-effects
[09:28] <Pathogen246> is there a way to access my master hd if i'm running from a slave partition?
[09:28] <smileboot> where do i find the ubuntu and kubuntu md5 checksums?
[09:28] <ssaa> ok
[09:28] <ssaa> thanks
[09:28] <Angeth`> All right, so I know I'm going to get reamed, but I'm going to try anyway. I was attempting to install ubuntu 6.10 on my very ancient laptop, and it simply fails. I've googled. I've forum browsed. I've asked friends who insist I try it out, and nobody has been able to solve my problem. It simply refuses to install. It acts, so very coyly, like it's going to install, and then I get this highly -
[09:28] <Angeth`> - unpleasant salmon colored screen. I believe it's a video card error. Other than buying a new video card, does anyone have another suggestion? -
[09:29] <crimsun> smileboot: on the mirrors from which you downloaded
[09:29] <smileboot> all there md5's should be the same right?
[09:29] <crimsun> yes.
[09:29] <crimsun> well, ubuntu's won't be identical to kubuntu's, but yes.
[09:30] <dan20> Angeth`, you could try installing the server version of ubuntu, which is mostly command line, then manually install x, gnome, then your drivers.
[09:30] <dan20> It would be a big pain for someone not experience in doing such things though
[09:31] <dan20> And if you were going through that much trouble to install, I'd just as soon use a different distribution
[09:31] <ardchoille> Angeth`: If it's an old machine, you might have better performance with xubuntu or a light window manager.
[09:31] <dan20> Angeth`, Yeah, xubuntu might work out of the box
[09:31] <dan20> I was assuming you were set on using gnome
[09:31] <Angeth`> dan20: I'm completely new to such things, and was hoping to learn via ubuntu, that seems like it might be a bit above my head.
[09:32] <ardchoille> Angeth`: Just ask questions in here, these folks are great.
[09:32] <dan20> Angeth`, well, Ubuntu is just a good of a start as any
[09:33] <iarwain_ben_adar> does anyone know how to make my ipw3945 work? (running Feisty with 2.6.17-11 with restricted modules)
[09:33] <ardchoille> Angeth`: I have an 8 year old niece who uses Ubuntu. She can install it and run it all by herself.
[09:33] <Angeth`> Thank you dan20 and ardchoille. I'll look into both of your suggestions and see what I can do.
[09:33] <posingaspopular> Angeth`: have you tried xubuntu? it runs much better on older machines
[09:33] <Dandre> Hello,
[09:33] <posingaspopular> its designed for older machines
[09:33] <Angeth`> posingaspopular: No, no I haven't.
[09:34] <Nergar> hello
[09:34] <Angeth`> posingaspopular: is it essentially the same?
[09:34] <ardchoille> Angeth`: http://xubuntu.com/
[09:34] <Nergar> anyone knows how to use clonezilla?
[09:34] <sorcere12> hello people iam stuck with a huge crisis would anyone like to help me i  have thei problem for 3 days i even posetd in the forums
[09:34] <sorcere12> anyone could help me
[09:34] <Dandre> I have a very long timeout when connecting to my ubuntu bax using a remote X server. How should I fix it?
[09:34] <ardchoille> Angeth`: It's Ubuntu but uses the xfce desktop instead of gnome
[09:34] <sorcere12> it would really be appreciated
[09:34] <fooey> anybody here using latex on ubuntu?
[09:34] <Angeth`> Awesome.
[09:34] <Angeth`> You guys are way nicer than I was expecting.
[09:35] <Symmetria> heh xfce > * anyway :)
[09:35] <tieTYT2> there is a linux command that can shuffle the lines of a file, does anyone know it?
[09:35] <Angeth`> I feared being mocked so severely, heh
[09:35] <ardchoille> Angeth`: Nah, this is a great channel.
[09:35] <iarwain_ben_adar> Angeth`: try #gentoo, they're 'friendly' ;-)
[09:35] <Symmetria> heh I have a very very powerful desktop system and I still run xfce over almost anything
[09:35] <tieTYT2> i thought it was sort but i can't find anything about it in the man page
[09:35] <sorcere12> i have a problem runing ubuntu on a old crt
[09:35] <Symmetria> http://mirror.ac.za/temp/desktop.jpg <[09:35] <sorcere12> i did a dpkg reconfigure and no changes
[09:35] <sorcere12> andy suggestions?
[09:36] <sorcere12> could i post a link ? here to the forum thread
[09:36] <Madpilot> Angeth`, this is not a traditional Linux channel. We don't eat noobs - we don't even use the term 'noob' ;)
[09:36] <Spliffster> i love toblerone! welcome from switzerland
[09:36] <Symmetria> hahaha Spliffster
[09:36] <micahcowan> We eat folks who use the term 'noob' :)
[09:36] <iarwain_ben_adar> anyone know why my ipw3945 doesn't work? (i don't have an eth1 anymore)
[09:36] <sorcere12> any one could help ??
[09:36] <Pathogen246> Can someone help me with something?
[09:36] <Symmetria> hrm, it seems dell just shipped my new disk array
[09:37] <Spliffster> the more sluggisch gnome gets the more convinced i am to switch to xfce ... is there a fine file manager (it sucked big hairy monkey balls 2-3 years ago)
[09:37] <Symmetria> heh Spliffster I dont use a file manager, I live and die in the command line world for most things
[09:37] <Symmetria> :)
[09:37] <sorcere12> guys please help me i really rerally wanna run ubuntu and only seen screenshots .. anyone ?
[09:37] <micahcowan> Pathogen246, regarding the master hd thing?
[09:37] <sorcere12> ?
[09:37] <Symmetria> Spliffster sed/awk/bash/rm/cp/mv <[09:37] <efedro> ya estoy chateando?
[09:37] <Pathogen246> yes siry
[09:38] <mneptok> iarwain_ben_adar: the restricted modules must be there. with Goldberry and flowers in her hair. old Tom needs tools to do the job. but the 3945 uses a biunary blob.
[09:38] <Spliffster> Symmetria: well ... i used to .. i am doing this for more than a decade ... but sometimes i like a nice FM ... especially for browsing ripped music, pictures videos, etc.
[09:38] <mneptok> -u
[09:38] <Priest-of-Psi> how the hell am I supposed to edit flash gfx in linux?
[09:38] <ardchoille> Spliffster: Have you checked out Thunar lately?
[09:38] <iarwain_ben_adar> mneptok: i am stunned ;o that's NICE :)
[09:38] <iarwain_ben_adar> mneptok: but, i already have restricted modules installed :s
[09:38] <micahcowan> Pathogen246, what format is the partition you want, and which partition is it? It should be about as simple as ount -t <filesystemtype> /dev/hdaX (where X is the number of the partition, starting at 0)
[09:38] <Spliffster> ardchoille: AFAIK you can only use adobemedias flash in wine.
[09:39] <tieTYT2> tieTYT2: there is a linux command that can shuffle the lines of a file, does anyone know it?
[09:39] <efedro> exit
[09:39] <Spliffster> ardchoille: thunar ... well no! thanks will try it
[09:39] <ardchoille> Spliffster: I don't use flash, so I do't know.
[09:39] <micahcowan> sorcere12, what link are you wanting to post?
[09:39] <mneptok> iarwain_ben_adar: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:39] <sorcere12> hold on lemm e get it
[09:39] <mneptok> iarwain_ben_adar: the l-r-m for your new kernel may have been held back
[09:40] <iarwain_ben_adar> mneptok: i'll do that, thanks
[09:40] <cafuego_> micahcowan: No, the partitions start at 1.
[09:40] <Symmetria> hrm I want one of those new intel quad core quad cpu systems
[09:40] <Pathogen246> micahcowan: I have windows installed on my master HD and I want to get music and pictures off of it, is it possible?
[09:40] <sorcere12> michawan : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=398954
[09:40] <sorcere12> thats the thread to the problem i have
[09:40] <micahcowan> cafuego, doh! Yup....
[09:40] <Symmetria> Pathogen246 yes, you can mount ntfs file systems under linux, I'd just advise very strongly against mounting it read-write, mount it read only
[09:40] <sorcere12> fatal error:
[09:40] <sorcere12> server is already active for display 0
[09:40] <sorcere12> if this server is no longer running remove /tmp/xo-lock
[09:40] <sorcere12> and start again.
[09:40] <smileboot> ok i tried using alt+ctrl+fx  to show whats going on behind the rolling bar during install via the CD   but it didnt work  any advice?
[09:41] <micahcowan> Pathogen246, sure, I do that all the time. But: is it NTFS or FAT?
[09:41] <sorcere12> and thats the error i get after reconfigureing the xserver
[09:41] <ssaa> i need some help please: i can't access my windows partition in ubuntu
[09:41] <sorcere12> and then i restard it by presing ctrl and alt and bck space
[09:41] <Spliffster> oh well, ardchoille, Symmetria ... thunar is going in the right direction. guess this is now the time i really consider switching. gnomes major features have become things like tomboy notes "now with styled text" ... i seriously think they have lost focus!
[09:41] <xircx> ok this is a dumb question but i need help installing a Intel-3.4.3006-20051209.i386.tar.gz package
[09:41] <Pathogen246> I'm pretty sure it's NTFS, but I have no idea how to mount things, I'm a self proclaimed nubert

[09:43] <Dandre> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14008/
[09:43] <mneptok> Priest-of-Psi: please watch the language
[09:43] <sorcere12> micahcowan .. how do i do that
[09:43] <micahcowan> Pathogen246, yes. If you're going read-only, you should be able to use the standard ntfs driver, and shouldn't need ntfs-3g.
[09:43] <sorcere12> i chose the vesa driver medium refresh rate 800 by 600  in 60 hz
[09:44] <Pathogen246> micahcowan: I'll give it a shot, back in a minute
[09:44] <sorcere12> and still the screen flickers and i cant see jack
[09:44] <xircx> ty jboome
[09:44] <micahcowan> sorcere12, <Ctrl>-<Alt>-<F1>, and log in. Then type lsof /tmp/xo-lock
[09:44] <mneptok> xircx: what is this package?
[09:45] <sorcere12> mind you iam running live cd ..
[09:45] <sorcere12> if that helps
[09:46] <Crazytom> sorcere12, have you tried adjusting the refresh rate?
[09:47] <Pathogen246> micahcowan: Thank you very much! It worked!
[09:48] <xircx> whats the comand to restart gnome
[09:49] <willskills> ctrl alt + backspace
[09:49] <sorcere12> yeah i did
[09:49] <sorcere12> from the start up
[09:49] <sorcere12> it didnt work
[09:50] <sorcere12> so i logged in command line mode by pressingf ctrl alt and f
[09:50] <sorcere12> 1
[09:50] <sorcere12> i did that 2 after reconfiguring xserver with the new regresh rates
[09:50] <sorcere12> should i type that command in and give you the details
[09:51] <tieTYT2> hey, this page says sort should have a -R option but my sort doesn't.  Why don't I have this? http://linuxreviews.org/man/sort/
[09:52] <stone123> man sort |head
[09:52] <sorcere12> ?
[09:53] <sorcere12> why doesnt the refresh rate not change
[09:53] <tieTYT2> stone123: why?
[09:54] <xircx> crtl+alt+backspace restarted back to the login and all then i loged in a it dint load the gnome
[09:54] <xircx> :S
[09:55] <stone123> tieTYT2, becouse i sad so
[09:56] <smileboot> Hi im trying to install ubuntu or kubuntu  but everytime i try and boot from the cd or do a cd integrity check  i get to the rolling bar then it just locks up. anyone know what i can do to either 1) find out the problem or 2) fix it?
[09:56] <tieTYT2> stone123: I did it it and it didn't do anything useful
[09:56] <tieTYT2> the problem is that coreutils is not new enough
[09:56] <tieTYT2> the latest (2005) is version 6 but ubuntu comes with 5. something
[09:57] <tieTYT2> cygwin appears to have the latest version...

[10:01] <mneptok> b3tzi: and that sources.list will not upgrade you

[10:02] <osfameron> how can I open a Garageband file on Ubuntu?
[10:02] <rio__> osfameron: hmm, how can you open a garageband file on windows even
[10:02] <osfameron> I'd like to have a go remixing the NIN samples, but they're in Garageband format.  I believe iTunes can import these and export as wav but... no iTunes on Linux either...
[10:03] <ssaa> entonces prueba otro teclado
[10:03] <jbroome> uhh, unless it's exported to mp3 you're not
[10:03] <osfameron> rio__: apparently using iTunes
[10:03] <ror> thanks for your help
[10:03] <Symmetria> wow
[10:03] <Spliffster> ror: all you have to do is symlink it. there are command line and gui tools which can do it for you but they really only create a symlink. your sytems runs in runleve 2 normally, therefore you need to add a start symlink in /etc/rc2.d like so: sudo ln -s /etc/rc2.d/S20ssh /etc/init.d/ssh
[10:03] <Symmetria> it seems my new dell kit is pretty bloody heavy
[10:03] <Symmetria> just saw the online packaging slip, 45 kgs
[10:03] <PrimoTurbo> Are there any good opensource music creation software?
[10:03] <Symmetria> suprised its that much
[10:03] <rio__> osfameron: I spotted those on NIN site too..
[10:03] <rio__> looks good
[10:03] <smileboot> whered i find the normal ubuntu alternate cd?  can find the kubuntu no prob
[10:04] <osfameron> yeah, but annoying that they're in a proprietary format
[10:04] <jbroome> !alternate
[10:04] <ubotu> 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.

[10:04] <jbroome> gah
[10:04] <Spliffster> ror: if you do not want it to be started just rename the symlink to K20ssh (S is for start and K is for kill. the number is for the system to figure ordering)
[10:04] <ror> actually I *wanted* it to start on bootup
[10:04] <ror> didn't realise this was default behaviour after an install, very strange!
[10:05] <ror> usually net services are off by default for security purposes
[10:05] <smileboot> ok so where do i find it tho?
[10:05] <jeffrey> sigh....
[10:05] <stone123> tieTYT2, sort 5,92 is in feisty and no -R , you can ask in debian why they depricated it
[10:05] <Shadowpillar_> how do I clear the keyring password on gnome?
[10:05] <Spliffster> ror: yes .. just when you do not want a servrvice to be started rather rename the symlink to Ksomethin instead of deleting .. that way it's easier to reenable it again (you still know the ordering) and it's also recommended by the debian policy
[10:05] <Shadowpillar_> as it says there's a password I never set

[10:07] <Spliffster> ror: yes, ubuntu is a desktop release .. many users don't even know what a service is (no offence) so it's not needed by the majority. i was also a bit puzzled that the sshd is not even installed by default
[10:07] <stone123> whiskyhotel, and onboard video is ?
[10:07] <whiskyhotel> stone123, whatever comes on the board with the Dell Dimension 2400
[10:07] <ror> I guess by desktop it really means home desktop, since maintainance of desktops at work is much easier with remote access

[10:09] <Spliffster> gconf2
[10:09] <ferronica> Spliffster: stone: yes gconf-editor
[10:10] <Spliffster> ferronica: gnome does not allow to edit all settings trough the gui ... that's where gconf comes in hand ... for example: i don't like a trash, home, network icon on my desktop ... i could disable these trough conf
[10:10] <osfameron> aha, looks like the garageband file is a directory with lots of .aif files
[10:11] <ferronica> stone: i think Trash is in bottom right corner  pannel
[10:12] <ferronica> stone: then where you put the trash
[10:14] <ferronica> Spliffster: If i never   upgrade my ubuntu. what will happen??
[10:14] <osfameron> auacity poos itself when I try to get it to import one of those .aif files.  Can I open a .aif audio in ubuntu somehow ?
[10:16] <shark> hello all!
[10:16] <Spliffster> ferronica: as long as you install security updates ... nothing will happen it works like as usual. its a common misunderstanding that OSes must be updated. if it does what you need why update ? where i used to work we ad 4-5 years old linux/bsd installations. we did only install scurity updates because these servers were working happily and ppl were relying on them. never change a winning system!
[10:17] <shark> how can I check my hardware acceleration? I mean GLXGears or something else, but GLXGears aren't displaying the FPS! PLEASE HELP!!!!!
[10:17] <ferronica> Spliffster: you mean if i use ubuntu 6.06 more then 3 years no problem?
[10:18] <shark> Nobody can help me? :S
[10:18] <Spliffster> ferronica: it depends .. if cannonical will cease to produce security updates and this system is connected to a network .. or is a multiuser system i would update. but there are other distros which provide patches for a longer timespan
[10:18] <mneptok> ferronica: "than"
[10:19] <ror> shark, are you running it from a terminal?
[10:19] <shark> yeah
[10:19] <blenna_unix> i installed kopete within gnome and i can't get sounds from kopete. ideas?
[10:19] <ror> hmm actually I'm getting same behaviour
[10:19] <ror> weird
[10:19] <shark> It says this>>>X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
[10:20] <Madpilot> ferronica, no - 6.06 will only have 3yrs of updates officially. After three years, you're on your own
[10:20] <ferronica> Spliffster: Better to upgrade whichever is available
[10:20] <equi> hi guys, I have rather stupid question.. I pressed Ctrl + Alt + F12 and the screen went black.. How can I get it again to normal? Thx :)
[10:20] <mneptok> Madpilot: 5 years for server
[10:20] <payan> shark: did you tryesd glxgears -printfps?
[10:20] <ferronica> Spliffster: go with time
[10:20] <mneptok> equi: ctl-alt-f6
[10:20] <Madpilot> mneptok, I know, but I tend to assume desktop users here :)
[10:21] <LGKeiz> now..
[10:21] <shark> No, I dont.. i try it
[10:21] <LGKeiz> If I have a wireless adapter which connects to my computer, do I just install the hardware on ubuntu and say boom it works?
[10:21] <equi> mneptopk: and what I have done by pressing ctrl + alt + F12?
[10:21] <arooni> hey folks... .my mplayer plugin to firefox is grey ( i can hear aduio, but no video)
[10:21] <shark> 2792FPS is showing my accelerate is OK??????
[10:21] <Spliffster> ferronica: well, 6.06 is (in my opinion) pretty stable ... if it works fien i'd keep it until the 3 years are over. if there are still patches available don't worry. but maybe in the meantime you bought h/w which is not supported in dapper so you would most likly upgrade anywa ... so you don't have to decide this right now. you have time
[10:22] <ferronica> Spliffster: okay
[10:22] <LGKeiz> Now thats pretty much the most ignorant thing I seeen today :<
[10:22] <LGKeiz> 6 people talk and not even answer me
[10:23] <Spliffster> LGKeiz: be a bit patient
[10:23] <shark> I've just want an answer, and I want to help too... just...
[10:23] <equi> mneptok: oh, that got me into console login.. how can I get to X without stopping running processes?
[10:23] <mneptok> equi: startx
[10:23] <Spliffster> LGKeiz: what's the matter
[10:23] <nimare2> uh hey everyone i was  i have ubuntu 6.10 and when i come out of sleep mode i no longer have sound i have sound after i reboot but that gets annoying after a while. any suggestions?
[10:23] <LGKeiz> If I have a wireless adapter which connects to my computer, do I just install the hardware on ubuntu and say boom it works?
[10:23] <LGKeiz> using the latest uhm
[10:23] <LGKeiz> ..feisty or whatever
[10:24] <equi> mneptok: it says that X are running
[10:24] <tbuss> anyone here use Vonage
[10:24] <payan> shark: I've seen better, what are you tryn' to do?
[10:24] <equi> mneptok: I have several processes running, I can hear music from rhythmbox and so on..
[10:24] <shark> I've just want to test my Nvidia card is working correctly... (I've used a HOWTO ... on ubuntuguide.org)
[10:24] <payan> LGKeiz: Ubuntu is not magic. If it has the driver it will
[10:24] <LGKeiz> Lol.
[10:25] <shark> "23377 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4675.280 FPS"
[10:25] <Spliffster> LGKeiz: it depends on the hardware. i have a bg2200 and it worked out of the box since dapper (6.06) ... some cards need a bit more treatement. you oughta ask mr. google about your card and ubuntu
[10:25] <LGKeiz> I was only playing when I said that above
[10:25] <LGKeiz> sarcastic I was :P
[10:25] <saispo> hi, any people have freeze under feisty with the last update ?
[10:25] <LGKeiz> thats why there was a /me cut punch line
[10:25] <payan> shark:It seams right to me but i have an old radeon
[10:25] <jeffrey> ok, I need some help getting vlc set up to play streaming media
[10:25] <saispo> saispo: i suspected X... because it run goods under console
[10:25] <shark> ah okay... Thanks Payan...
[10:25] <owh> saispo: #ubuntu+1 would be the place to ask.
[10:26] <shark> I had a Feisty Fawn yesterday, but it always makes me angry with a lots of bugs :S
[10:26] <saispo> shark: yep :/
[10:26] <ror> http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Glxgears_is_not_a_Benchmark :}
[10:26] <tbuss> I dual boot with windoze, my vonage phone works while in windoze but when I log into Ubuntu it's inop. Anyone know of this?
[10:26] <saispo> owh: thanks
[10:26] <bullgard4> What is the syntax of the arp command to find out what hosts are active in my Ethernet LAN?
[10:27] <nimare2> has anyone have the same peoblem or know whats wrong with my problem?
[10:27] <owh> tbuss: How is your vonage phone connected to your LAN?
[10:27] <Spliffster> lol
[10:27] <owh> bullgard4: man arp
[10:27] <tbuss> owh: vonage phone adapter -> router
[10:27] <Spliffster> arp -a
[10:27] <LGKeiz> well that was a nice channel to give me, thanks uhm.. whoe- oh owh
[10:27] <owh> tbuss: How is your computer connected to your LAN?
[10:28] <Spliffster> bullgard4: but arp -a wil only show the known arp adresses ... you might portscan your subnet first with nmap
[10:28] <bullgard4> owh: Your answer is not professional. I have consulted man arp before I posted.
[10:28] <owh> LGKeiz: I didn't give you a channel.
[10:28] <tbuss> owh: wired to router
[10:28] <shark> so anybody knows how can I benchmark my PCs performance??? (3D card)
[10:28] <Spliffster> bullgard4: you got my last msg ?
[10:29] <owh> bullgard4: Your question was: "What is the syntax of the arp command..." the answer is: "Consult the man page."
[10:29] <bullgard4> Spliffster: Yes. I am going to think about ist and do as you advised.
[10:29] <owh> tbuss: Does your vonage service work with your PC turned off?
[10:29] <bullgard4> owh: Your answer is unfriendly.
[10:30] <LGKeiz> Im being annoying, don't mind me :p
[10:30] <tbuss> owh: yes, phone adapter is connected to router, as long has router is on I have a connection
[10:30] <tbuss> owh: I changed some settings for my IP when configuring proftpd, could this be the cause?
[10:31] <whiskyhotel> hey, i am trying to edit the xorg.conf file to fix my resolution but it is telling me i do not have permissions, i am trying to edit it in text edit
[10:31] <payan> LGKeiz: It's not against regulations to came drunk to the channel, is it?
[10:31] <owh> bullgard4: I'm sorry. I didn't know I needed to be friendly. I thought you came here for an answer. You asked a simple question, I gave a simple answer. If you had followed my reply up with: "I did that, but I don't understand." then I would have elaborated. Instead I'm wasting bandwidth having a discussion about my "professionalism and friendliness". I'm sorry if you feel insulted. I did not intend to.
[10:31] <Spliffster> bullgard4: i have written this script to find all mac/ip adresses in my subnet: http://pastebin.ca/425124
[10:31] <stone123> whiskyhotel,  gksudo  gedit
[10:32] <Spliffster> bullgard4: it requires nmap, arp, grep and sed
[10:32] <tbuss> owh: I can see the adapter in my DHCP client list
[10:32] <whiskyhotel> stone123, i am sorry i do not understand it is my first day with ubuntu
[10:32] <owh> tbuss: Is your Ubuntu PC setup with a static address, or a DHCP address?
[10:32] <Spliffster> bullgard4: oh ... and you must set your subnet in export $_NETWORK=10.0.0.0/24
[10:33] <bullgard4> owh: You should know that this an Ubuntu channel. Read the Ubuntu charta. It states that ubuntu users are friendly to each other.
[10:33] <owh> bullgard4: I am not going to respond any longer. I am sorry if you felt that I was unfriendly. That was not my intent.
[10:33] <owh> whiskyhotel: Do you know how to open a terminal?
[10:33] <aricz> ZzZ, chill out bullgard4..
[10:34] <Spliffster> owh, bullgard4: can you move your tiny little private flame war to private messages ? thank you.
[10:34] <payan> whiskyhotel:open a terminal and type gksudo gedit /laRuta/xorg.conf
[10:34] <tbuss> owh: it's dynamic but the router ip is static, it should forward from router to pc
[10:34] <stone123> whiskyhotel, ubuntu keeps those files write protected . you need admistrator provilages to edit them . start a terminal alt + F4 . and type : gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:34] <ror> I'd much rather a helpful channel than a "friendly" channel any day
[10:34] <stone123> whiskyhotel, alt + f2
[10:34] <jeffrey> I have VLC installed, and it shows up in about:plugins for Firefox, but when I try to play a movie trailer in Windows media format, I get sound only, and text that says (No Video)
[10:35] <arooni> what do i need to play back wmv files ?  (i already have w32codecs)
[10:35] <arooni> do i need a special media plaeyr
[10:35] <Bhaskar> my screen resolution is fall into 640x480, i have change in Xorg.conf, but not changed why ? i want to make 800x600
[10:35] <stone123> arooni, try mplayer
[10:35] <owh> tbuss: If your vonage service works with the PC turned off then the only way that it stops working if the PC is turned on is if the PC and the vonage ATA have the same IP address.
[10:36] <kmieta> hi, how i can uinstal kiba-dock ?? i'm polish new user ubuntu. i need help...
[10:36] <owh> tbuss: The only way I can imagine that happening is if you have set the IP address of your Ubuntu installation statically.
[10:36] <Bhaskar> zipper,  my screen resolution is fall into 640x480, i have change in Xorg.conf, but not changed why ? i want to make 800x600
[10:36] <tbuss> owh: I just checked my router settings, IP's dont conflict
[10:36] <cypher1> Bhaskar: can you try doing "Ctrl" + "+" and "Ctrl" + "-" and see whether your resolution changes ?
[10:37] <payan> kmieta:try sudo apt-get autoremove kiba-dock
[10:37] <owh> tbuss: If you unplug your running Ubuntu from the network, does vonage start working?
[10:37] <whiskyhotel> stone123, i have done that, now do i just edit the setting manually?
[10:37] <Bhaskar> cypher, no effect on ctrl + or -
[10:38] <tbuss> owh: not sure what you mean, unplug from the network to see if connection is lost on phone adapter?
[10:38] <stone123> whiskyhotel, yeah , do you know what to edit ?
[10:38] <arooni> stone123: i get errors when i try to play it back in mplayer
[10:38] <owh> tbuss: Both the ATA and the PC are connected to the router, it in turn is connected to the Internet. Is that correct?
[10:38] <kmieta> payan: thanks :D
[10:39] <cypher1> Bhaskar: alternatively you can try changing through System->Preferences->Screen Resolution
[10:39] <Mena> By accident The upgrader tool closed
[10:39] <whiskyhotel> stone123, i think so, the 6 sections where it has the resolutions? it was 1280 X 760 and now i have just changed it, is that correct?
[10:39] <tbuss> owh: correct,
[10:39] <Mena>  is there any wrong if i made an update then an upgrade with terminal ?
[10:39] <owh> tbuss: The connections between the ATA and the router, as well as the PC and the router are Ethernet?
[10:39] <Bhaskar> cypher, there is only one 640x480
[10:39] <tbuss> owh: yes
[10:39] <Bhaskar> cypher, no other option
[10:40] <owh> tbuss: Unplug the PC. Does the ATA start working?
[10:40] <stone123> whiskyhotel, depends
[10:40] <Spliffster> bullgard4: FYI if you are using the script i have pasted ... there are errors .. c&p didn't work propperl
[10:40] <Spliffster> *propperl even
[10:40] <owh> Bhaskar: You might want to tell cypher1, rather than cypher
[10:40] <stone123> whiskyhotel, if you changed it under correct Depth , mine is 24
[10:40] <payan> Bhaskar: you may try dpkg-reconfig xserver-xorg
[10:40] <cypher1> Bhaskar: can you please paste your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:41] <cypher1> !pastebin > Bhaskar
[10:41] <Bhaskar> cypher1,ok
[10:41] <whiskyhotel> stone123, is there anyway i can check to see if i have the correct depth? its 21" widescreen monitor
[10:41] <stone123> whiskyhotel, you should use  in terminal : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver.xorg
[10:41] <MarkCh> hello, can anybody tell me how to make a bash command start in startup. i want to automatically ifup eth1 when i boot.
[10:42] <stone123> instead of manual edit
[10:42] <tbuss> owh: if I'm in windoze it will continue to work; in Ubuntu it does the same as it would if the pc was plugged in
[10:42] <stone123> whiskyhotel error there ,  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:42] <owh> tbuss: Are you currently running Ubuntu?
[10:42] <tbuss> owh: yes
[10:42] <owh> tbuss: Is your PC connected to the router?
[10:42] <stone123> whiskyhotel, and when asked for esolution choose medium
[10:42] <whiskyhotel> stone123, trying that now
[10:42] <tbuss> owh: yes
[10:43] <owh> tbuss: Is the ATA connected to the router?
[10:43] <tbuss> owh: yes
[10:43] <arooni> can someone help me playing back wmv files on the desktop?
[10:43] <roxlu> Hi everyone
[10:43] <arooni> i already nstalled w32 codecs and it still doesnt work
[10:43] <owh> tbuss: What happens if you pick up your telephone handset?
[10:43] <roxlu> arooni try to play them using mplayer or vlc from the commandline
[10:43] <Crazytom> MarkCh, I think you can just add the command to an init script
[10:43] <arooni> roxlu: but i did try thru mplayer
[10:43] <arooni> i got an errort
[10:43] <tbuss> owh: I can dial a number but not get out. If I call the number from my cell it instantly goes to voicemail
[10:44] <roxlu> arooni: from the command line?
[10:44] <MarkFeathers> What other packages are good replacements for vnc
[10:44] <whiskyhotel> stone123, it has given me 6 video card drivers to choose from, it's an on board dell video card, that's all i know
[10:44] <arooni> roxlu: no i havent trried from command line... how ould i do that?
[10:44] <owh> tbuss: So, you get a dial tone?
[10:44] <payan> arooni:Did you tryed vlc?
[10:44] <tbuss> owh: no dial tone

[10:45] <drivera90> 19073384
[10:45] <cypher1> owh: ah
[10:45] <osfameron> roxlu: there are several.  people often recommend rxvt and others
[10:45] <owh> tbuss: No, no dialtone, means no connection.
[10:45] <stone123> whiskyhotel, open new terminal and type : lshw -C video
[10:45] <roxlu> Okay, what others are there? (that are good)
[10:45] <cypher1> Bhaskar: please use pastebin
[10:45] <ror> I like rxvt

[10:46] <MarkFeathers> What packages make a good alternative to vnc4server?
[10:46] <ror> gnome-terminal is suprisingly good; Eterm is nice if you can get it configured right, aterm is good
[10:46] <tbuss> owh: hold on
[10:46] <whiskyhotel> stone123, i have done that is there anything i should be looking for?
[10:46] <aricz> Bhaskar, did you do a restart after you edited xorg.conf?
[10:46] <stone123> product ?
[10:46] <decaf> hi, on feisty, when I enable desktop effects, window decorations dissappear. do I have to install something like emerald for compiz?

[10:47] <stone123> owh, dont jump in middle of conversation :)
[10:47] <whiskyhotel> stone123, vendor is intel corp
[10:47] <owh> Oh, sorry stone123, that was meant for decaf.
[10:47] <aricz> Bhaskar, I did the same, added different resolutions to xorg.conf.. didn't work (btw, be sure you add the resolutions to the correct screendepth).. well, I changed the horiz. and vertical sync.. and kabooooom, 10 other resolutions got added
[10:47] <tbuss> owh: unplug pc from router, I got a dial tone
[10:47] <p3tr0> ls
[10:47] <p3tr0> clear
[10:47] <jeffrey> can anyone help me figure out why I only am getting sound, but no video, when playing a video file online through VLC?
[10:47] <owh> decaf: Ask that question on #ubuntu+1
[10:47] <osfameron> I *like* gnome-terminal.  Basically it has a problem with not supporting enough colours to get vim colorschemes looking decent, but apart from that it works just great.  And it's easy to configure (if like me you're too lazy to work out how to set up the .X config files)
[10:48] <owh> tbuss: Hmm.
[10:48] <Priest-of-Psi> hmmm
[10:48] <owh> tbuss: Let me make absolutely sure here.
[10:48] <Priest-of-Psi> I hate flash!
[10:48] <stone123> whiskyhotel, i80 something is driver
[10:48] <Crazytom> njight all
[10:49] <owh> tbuss: Your PC and your ATA are both connected to the router via independent Ethernet cables. If both are connected, then you have no dial-tone. If you disconnect the PC while it's running Ubuntu, the dial tone returns. Is that correct?
[10:49] <stone123> whiskyhotel, i810
[10:49] <tbuss> owh: correct
[10:49] <payan> I hate him too
[10:49] <whiskyhotel> stone123, i don't have that option i have< siusb, tdfx, tga, trident, tseng, vesa >

[10:56] <Spliffster> bullgard4: http://pastebin.ca/425149 you need nmap, egrep, sed, cut, arp ... most of which should be installed anyway. make sure to change the config section. you may also completely eliminate the config section ... i use it because it's a single scritp of a set of management scripts.
[10:56] <whiskyhotel> stone123, ok that is done it brings up two choices it is saying both are installed

[11:09] <payan> MarkCh: are you using 7.04?
[11:09] <tbuss> owh: man I'm sorry, i pasted the text and it says it's posted, I never used that before
[11:10] <owh> moosa: You might have missed it, but this is a pretty busy channel. "It does not work." is not enough information for us to help you.
[11:10] <iarwain> hi guys, anyone know why i get an 'failed to open control connection to wpa_supplicant' when trying to use wpagui on Feisty?
[11:10] <owh> tbuss: You need to tell me the URL of the resulting page :)
[11:10] <moosa> well the command is still not found
[11:10] <moosa> and no oss sound emulaton yet too
[11:11] <moosa> thates sadly all waht i know
[11:11] <MarkCh> payan: yes.
[11:11] <owh> moosa: I am having about eleven conversations. You'll need to tell me which command, what you're trying to do, and what you tried already.
[11:11] <payan> MarkCh:are you using network manager
[11:11] <payan> ?
[11:11] <MarkCh> payan: i dont know.

[11:13] <payan> Moosa is a girl tryn' to emulate oss on ALSA
[11:13] <MarkCh> so i guess i am running NetworkManager...
[11:13] <glick> i want a core duo :/
[11:13] <moosa> man actully
[11:14] <moosa> .. with bad grammer
[11:14] <tbuss> owh: didnt need to, I had mac filtering enabled at one time and that was the only configuration I had to do was enter the mac address of the ATA
[11:14] <payan> MarkCh:i had a problem with network manager, it makes me choose between my wired connection
[11:15] <moosa> but other then the *girl* part payan was right i am trying to emulate oss on alsa
[11:15] <iarwain> hi guys, anyone know why i get an 'failed to open control connection to wpa_supplicant' when trying to use wpagui on Feisty?
[11:15] <owh> tbuss: I'm scratching my head at the moment.
[11:15] <payan> taking one of those down ( it is intended to do so to choose wireless internet connections)
[11:15] <MarkCh> payan: so, should i disable network manager, if so how could i do that?
[11:15] <owh> tbuss: Under Windows, what is your IP address?
[11:15] <payan> since i don't have wireless i uninstalled it
[11:15] <dumezil> im installing djbdns on feisty and it wants to put a line in inittab "SV:123456:respawn:/command/svscanboot" , but feisty has replaced inittab with upstart, but i don't know how to make this line into something upstart can deal with.  anyone familiar with upstart?
[11:15] <tbuss> owh: it is all the same
[11:16] <owh> tbuss: I am stumped then.
[11:16] <bullgard4> Spliffster: I have been diverted by a longer telephone call because tomorrow I will be taken by car to the Baltic Sea for Easter holidays. I will now continue to prepare to understand the sript which you pasted. Thank you.
[11:16] <ferronica> Is there any way to go back to ubuntu 6.06?.
[11:17] <owh> tbuss: The things you are telling me do not appear to add up. I'm not doubting that you're trying to report correctly, but there is a salient detail that is escaping me.
[11:17] <tbuss> owh: I'm new to this but would that matter since all incomming traffic goes to the router which in turn fowards the data to the coresponding IP, the router IP never changes,
[11:17] <Bhaskar> cypher1,what is the solution?
[11:17] <Linoleum> hi, Once in busybox, at the initramfs shell, what should I type to relauch or restart the boot sequence ?
[11:18] <tbuss> owh: I'm trying to think what would be different in Ubunt because it shouldnt matter if I change fromone os to the other, correct?
[11:18] <roxlu> Is there a "winscp"  application for ubuntu?
[11:18] <MarkCh> ive gone to ##networking, and a person named poningru told me networkmanager isnt the problem...
[11:18] <owh> tbuss: But you have told me that you're running Ubuntu and Windows on the same computer, in Windows, the ATA, also connected to the same router via Ethernet works, but under Ubuntu it does not. If you unplug the Ubuntu computer from the router, the ATA starts working again. This does not add up.
[11:18] <owh> tbuss: The only way I can see it doing this is if your Ubuntu PC has the same IP address as the ATA.
[11:18] <owh> tbuss: But you're telling me that it does not.
[11:19] <owh> tbuss: In addition, you cannot "see" the ATA from your Ubuntu PC by pinging it.
[11:19] <tbuss> owh: is there a way to assign an IP address to the ATA to see if that is indeed the problem?
[11:19] <owh> tbuss: Ok, boot into windows. Open up a cmd shell, then run the ping command again.
[11:19] <payan> I'm just saying that if makes you choose between your wired connections activating one and deactivating the other, it's sort of a problem
[11:19] <owh> tbuss: Yes, but you've told me that it's different from the one your PC has.
[11:20] <payan> that was a problem to my in order to share my connection
[11:20] <tbuss> owh: could you try and ping the ATA, is that possible
[11:20] <owh> tbuss: Do you know how to open a cmd shell in windows?
[11:20] <owh> tbuss: No, because I'm on the other side of your firewall.
[11:21] <owh> tbuss: Besides that, I'm also on a satellite network with all manner of gizmo's between me and the Internet, so chances of that ever working are low :)
[11:21] <owh> tbuss: Do you know how to open a command shell in Windows?
[11:21] <owh> tbuss: Start -> Run -> cmd
[11:21] <whiskyhotel> room, does anyone have any idea how i can edit my xorg.conf ?
[11:22] <payan> dpkg-reconfig xserver-xorg
[11:22] <owh> No, that's not the correct answer.
[11:22] <tbuss> owh: okay, I'm going to boot into windows, are going to be around for a minute or do you have some more advice
[11:22] <owh> whiskyhotel: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:22] <owh> tbuss: I'll be here, unless I go insane first.
[11:23] <payan> hi already asked that
[11:23] <payan> and got that response
[11:23] <owh> tbuss: You should also record the output for ifconfig
[11:23] <whiskyhotel> owh, thanks
[11:23] <MarkCh> whiskyhotel: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[11:23] <owh> tbuss: It might be ipconfig
[11:23] <tbuss> owh: okay I'll be back in a minute.......ifconfig for ubuntu ipconfig for windows
[11:23] <owh> tbuss: I cannot remember and I don't have Windows handy. I could boot into VMware, but that's another day.
[11:24] <tbuss> owh: alright I'll try both
[11:24] <owh> Just kidding :)
[11:24] <ferronica> Is there any way to go back to  ubuntu 6.06?.

[11:26] <whiskyhotel> anybody know how to find out a depth rate of my monitor? this screen resolution thing is killing me

[11:27] <MarkCh> how do i get network information in ubuntu, without networkmanager?
[11:27] <owh> Linoleum: Not sure you can, but what does exit do?
[11:27] <asad2005> I want to access ubuntu server with ssh -X , what packages do i have to install on server (minimum) or would it be possible to use the local linux pc xserver ?
[11:28] <Linoleum> owh : does nothing
[11:28] <payan> MarkCh:type ifconfig
[11:28] <owh> Linoleum: Then I don't think you can exit busybox. You might try Ctrl-D, but I doubt it does anything either.
[11:29] <MarkCh> payan: oh, ok thanks.
[11:29] <owh> Linoleum: What are you trying to do?
[11:31] <owh> And silence returns.

[11:35] <ubuntu_ian> hi. How would i go about telling ubuntu that there are 2 identical graphics cards on the pci exprees motherboard?
[11:35] <owh> Summary: Vonage service doesn't work under Ubuntu. Internet connected to router with two devices, a PC and a Vonage ATA. If the PC is running Windows, it works, if it's running Ubuntu it doesn't. If you disconnect the Ubuntu PC from the router, the Vonage service starts working again.
[11:36] <owh> ubuntu_ian: You need to use the PCI id, there are documents on the web about it. Each has a different ID.
[11:37] <cybermad> what is PDF editor in linux? what do you recommend?
[11:37] <ferronica> Is there any paste bin where i can paste IMAGES
[11:37] <owh> Things we've investigated. The IP address for the PC under Ubuntu is not the same as the ATA. You cannot ping the ATA from within Ubuntu. Ubuntu is not running a DHCP server.
[11:37] <ubuntu_ian> owh: thanks. I tried a lspci but its only showing one card. So the deffintaly would not have the same busID ?

[11:38] <owh> tbuss: One mo, someone at the door.
[11:38] <tbuss> owh: np
[11:38] <owh> Arecibo01: Any ideas?
[11:39] <owh> tbuss: Could you ping the ATA from within Windows?
[11:39] <ubuntu_ian> owh:thanks for your help. Verbose lspci shows one vga adapter. Could the second one be labelled something else?
[11:39] <Arecibo01> I haven't really had any experience with Vonage sadly
[11:39] <ferronica> Is there any paste bin where i can paste IMAGES
[11:40] <owh> ubuntu_ian: Hmm, are you sure it's seated correctly?
[11:40] <owh> Arecibo01: I don't think this has anything to do with Vonage at all.
[11:40] <ubuntu_ian> owh: Yes, i have made sure that both cards work indepentandy
[11:40] <owh> ferronica: Do a google for imageshack
[11:41] <owh> ubuntu_ian: Hmm, how did you do that?
[11:41] <tbuss> owh: request timed out 100% lost
[11:41] <owh> tbuss: Does the ATA work?
[11:41] <ThomasNovin> how happy I am now that I've switches from gnome-terminal to konsole!

[11:42] <hendaus> somebody help me please
[11:42] <J-_> anyone have any problems with the last few update(s)? After so many minutes, my screen will shut off like it should, but my fan will kick on... It's been on all night(the fan) =X Any ideas?

[11:42] <J-_> never used to do that before
[11:42] <ferronica> owh: the mime type of the file could not be identified
[11:42] <owh> ferronica: I was answering your question about pasting images. I don't have time at the moment to help you with Rythmbox.
[11:43] <ferronica> owh: oh okay
[11:43] <tbuss> owh: so if I need to use my phone while I'm running Ubuntu I need to disconnect from router :)
[11:43] <owh> tbuss: No, that's silly.
[11:43] <hendaus> anyone knows about amule?
[11:43] <owh> tbuss: So, let me get this straight, you now have two computers, one running Ubuntu, one running Windows and the ATA is working?
[11:44] <tbuss> owh: correct, the one running windows is the dual boot computer, the other is just Ubuntu, I started the spare up so I could work on the windows side and still troubleshoot
[11:45] <owh> ferronica: If you can wait, paste your image, ask a question. I'll see what I can do.
[11:45] <ferronica> owh: okay
[11:45] <tbuss> owh: the dual boot is the one I use, If I can get this vonage thing worked out along with some other minor details I can get rid of windows completely
[11:46] <owh> tbuss: Check the IP address for the ATA on your router again please.
[11:46] <xhyuan> quit
[11:46] <tbuss> owh: with cmd or the managment tool?
[11:46] <owh> tbuss: You have a management tool?
[11:46] <Bhaskar> cypher1,i have restarted PC but same problem of resolution
[11:47] <owh> tbuss: What is that?
[11:47] <nergar> poningru, no luck
[11:48] <tbuss> owh: yes, I type in the ip of the router in the address bar and the managment tool open, it is where i configure everything for the router: LAN settings, WAN settings, Security etc
[11:48] <nergar> poningru, i was able to resotre grub but now when i try to boot it says file not found
[11:48] <poningru> nergar: which file not found?
[11:48] <poningru> kernel? or init img?
[11:48] <owh> tbuss: Right, so, what is the IP address for the ATA?
[11:49] <tbuss> owh: 192.168.2.51
[11:49] <nergar> poningru, Error 15: File not found
[11:49] <wizard__> can anyone tell me how to launch network-manager-gnome?
[11:49] <nergar> press any key to continue
[11:50] <mheath> wizard__, after it's installed, it should be started automatically.
[11:50] <wizard__> all i see is some icon in the top that shows like..... a computer with a bar to the right of it
[11:51] <wizard__> is that it?
[11:51] <owh> tbuss: Type in ping 192.168.2.1
[11:51] <poningru> wizard__: yes
[11:51] <poningru> nergar: hmm
[11:51] <wizard__> poningru: why isn't it searching for any wireless networks?
[11:51] <wizard__> all it says is signal strength zero
[11:51] <tbuss> owh: thats good 0%loss thats my router
[11:52] <poningru> wizard__: click on it it should see wifi signals
[11:52] <owh> tbuss: Now try 192.168.2.2
[11:52] <wizard__> poningru: its not doing anything
[11:52] <zcat[1] > damn gtk update, now second life won't run any more...
[11:52] <poningru> wizard__: restart your computer
[11:52] <tbuss> owh: 0% loss 3ms
[11:53] <zcat[1] > is there a way I can roll back?
[11:53] <yellow_chicken> how to write flash program in linux? which app needs to be installed?
[11:53] <tux> Hi, i need your help
[11:53] <owh> zcat[1] : Stop your whining. At least you can run it sometimes. Try doing it across a satellite link :)
[11:53] <zcat[1] > bah!!
[11:53] <Arecibo01> LOL
[11:53] <wizard__> poningru: to say the least i am going to gnome because kubuntu didn't want to play nice about remembering wep and staying connected
[11:53] <tux> i get the error about mimetypes all the time
[11:53] <tux> i use kubuntu
[11:53] <zcat[1] > I want my old gtk back!!
[11:53] <Arecibo01> you're going die without second life aren't you?
[11:53] <Arecibo01> lol
[11:53] <wizard__> thats odd
[11:53] <wizard__> poningru: no shut down option in log off menu?
[11:53] <owh> tbuss: What is the IP address of the other Ubuntu computer?
[11:54] <poningru> wizard__: that was fixed a while ago
[11:54] <poningru> wizard__: are you in feisty?
[11:54] <poningru> please come to ubuntu+1
[11:54] <wizard__> poningru: no
[11:54] <owh> zcat[1] : Sorry, don't have any actual help to offer you.
[11:54] <poningru> wizard__: oh
[11:54] <poningru> check dmesg see if there is any errors
[11:54] <tux> ...
[11:54] <tbuss> owh: 192.168.2.52
[11:54] <wizard__> poningru: its restarting
[11:55] <poningru> nergar: you there?
[11:55] <wizard__> poningru: i meant there was no restart button when i clicked log off botton
[11:55] <nergar> poningru, yes
[11:55] <owh> tbuss: ping 192.168.2.52 from your Windows box.
[11:55] <poningru> nergar: I dont know why grub did that
[11:55] <tbuss> owh:  0% loss
[11:55] <poningru> but anyway lets backup your home partition
[11:56] <poningru> do you have an external hard drive you can backup to?
[11:56] <felixhummel> OT: What's the opposite of mandatory? I'm not a native, but need this word. :)
[11:56] <nergar> yes poningru
[11:56] <owh> tbuss: Just out of curiosity, where are you reading the IP address from your ATA from? I don't think it's really what you think it is.
[11:56] <wizard__> how odd... poningru now my wireless card isn't in the list
[11:57] <owh> tbuss: Open up a web-browser, and visit 192.168.2.2
[11:57] <poningru> nergar: ok well boot into a live cd
[11:57] <poningru> I am assuming you are in there already
[11:57] <nergar> booting
[11:57] <poningru> ok
[11:57] <tbuss> owh:  unable to connect
[11:57] <wizard__> poningru: wait, got it that far... but still no wifi network detection in the network name box
[11:58] <poningru> wizard__: hmm what kinda wifi card do you have?
[11:58] <wizard__> its an intel one
[11:58] <wizard__> it works in linux natively
[11:58] <wizard__> it says the interface is not configured tho
[11:58] <moosa> how do i log in as root?
[11:58] <tux> does anyone know how to fix the mimetype errors?
[11:58] <tux> moosa: su
[11:58] <owh> felixhummel: The word is optional
[11:58] <tux> moosa: then enter password
[11:58] <poningru> wizard__: weird
[11:58] <Tube|> help, how can I get xvnc to work with fvwm2 window manager? I just get grey screen when I login..
[11:59] <poningru> nergar: let me know when its done booting
[11:59] <Enselic``> How can I see my batterylevel from a shell?
[11:59] <Enselic``> (laptop)
[11:59] <felixhummel> owh, isn't mandatory the same as optional?
[11:59] <wizard__> poningru: i added settings and hit enable
[11:59] <Enselic``> felixhummel: mandatory = must
[11:59] <owh> felixhummel: No, they are opposites.
[11:59] <nergar> poningru, np
[11:59] <wizard__> poningru: it didn't autodetect my network i had to input the info
[11:59] <poningru> wizard__: I thought you said you were trying to use network manager
[11:59] <owh> felixhummel: What is your native language?
[11:59] <wizard__> poningru: i am, the gnome interface for it
[11:59] <felixhummel> owh, german. yours? english i presume.
[12:00] <wizard__> poningru: you said the little icon at the top was it.
[12:00] <owh> tbuss: I'm still thinking.
[12:00] <wizard__> it doesn't seem like its it tho...
[12:00] <felixhummel> owh, thanks :)
[12:00] <tbuss> owh:  okay
[12:00] <wizard__> poningru: its just a little icon that shows a full 3 green bars of signal
[12:00] <poningru> wizard__: buuh... well it could be the old network-admin icon
[12:00] <poningru> ah awesome
[12:00] <moosa> i am trying to change a files premissons but it belongs to root so i must log in as root
[12:00] <owh> felixhummel: Ich spreche ein bishen Deutch, spelling is poor :)
[12:00] <poningru> wizard__: there you go you're good to go
[12:00] <Lobosque> do someone know the link to the page with the release schedules and etc...?
[12:00] <poningru> !sudo | moosa
[12:00] <ubotu> moosa: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:00] <wizard__> poningru: why didn't it autodetect tho?
[12:00] <poningru> Lobosque: release schedule?
[12:01] <poningru> for?
[12:01] <moosa> sudo does not work eather
[12:01] <felixhummel> owh, what do you think is the difference between mandatory and imperative? Where are you from?
[12:01] <Lobosque> poningru: i don't know a better word...
[12:01] <Lobosque> for ubuntu itself..
[12:01] <owh> felixhummel: mandetory = muss, optional = mach.
[12:01] <wizard__> poningru: uhp okay now its doing what i feared
[12:01] <moosa> i get a premisson denied message
[12:01] <poningru> moosa: for what?
[12:01] <Priest-of-Psi> anyone here ever got a lexmark 5150 all in one working?
[12:01] <wizard__> poningru: disconnecting and recoonnecting itself
[12:01] <moosa> changing a oss file
[12:02] <poningru> Lobosque: feisty will be released on april 19th
[12:02] <nergar> poningru, done
[12:02] <felixhummel> bb
[12:02] <owh> felixhummel: There is little actual difference, but mandatory is telling someone that they must, imperative means that the thing will only happen if something is done.
[12:02] <poningru> nergar: ok mount your home partition
[12:02] <poningru> nergar: go to terminal
[12:02] <moosa> this file /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p
[12:02] <Lobosque> poningru: and whats the link to the page with that kind of information?
[12:02] <owh> tbuss: I don't know what to tell you next.
[12:02] <poningru> Lobosque: its in the wiki somewhere
[12:02] <tbuss> owh:  okay
[12:02] <poningru> wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:02] <orange1> how do i change my mac address?
[12:02] <owh> tbuss: Your router appears to be doing something funky.
[12:02] <nergar> poningru, what do u think he means by text-based grub install off the 6.10 cd
[12:03] <poningru> nergar: hmm? who?
[12:03] <owh> tbuss: I wonder if the following is happening:
[12:03] <owh> tbuss: Under Ubuntu your address is set via DHCP, under Windows it's static.
[12:03] <nergar> poningru, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297261
[12:03] <poningru> nergar: on the terminal grub installation can be done from within the 6.10 cd
[12:04] <owh> tbuss: Resulting in an address being set on your router that conflicts with your ATA.
[12:04] <nergar> i send u a notice with the quote
[12:04] <poningru> oh not sure I got it
[12:04] <owh> tbuss: Can you set the IP address on the ATA manually?
[12:04] <tbuss> owh: I created a noip address for the ftp server I set up in Ubuntu, but I dont think the actual address on the LAN is static
[12:04] <owh> tbuss: Say again.
[12:04] <moosa> how do i change file premissons that belongs to root?
[12:05] <owh> tbuss: What do you mean?
[12:05] <owh> moosa: Using sudo.
[12:05] <owh> moosa: Something like: sudo chmod
[12:05] <poningru> nergar: oh hmm
[12:05] <poningru> nergar: yeah it seems click on install
[12:06] <poningru> oh no its from an alternative cd
[12:06] <moosa> while using sudo i get /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss: premisson denied
[12:06] <nergar> D:
[12:06] <tbuss> owh: The IP's are all dynamic, when I setup the ftp server I ran into a problem of request not getting through the router....
[12:06] <owh> moosa: Trying to do what?
[12:06] <poningru> nergar: how did you try to do a grub install?
[12:06] <poningru> I do not understand why it failed
[12:06] <agresor> anyone can help me ?
[12:06] <agresor> i have error in cedega..
[12:06] <owh> tbuss: So, what did you do with FTP where?
[12:06] <poningru> I'd much rather walk you through that
[12:06] <moosa> allow writing to oss file
[12:06] <poningru> nergar: lets try that first
[12:06] <agresor> cedega shows me this err msg : FTL:   Cannot load GPU programs. (Error reading from file.)ERR:  There were group file errors:
[12:07] <agresor> how to fix?
[12:07] <oooops> saaaaaaaaaad, i upgrade to feisty, opera is gone..................
[12:07] <owh> moosa: You need to be in the correct group for audio.
[12:07] <nergar> poningru, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[12:07] <poningru> moosa: sudo chmod o+w /path/to/that/file/oss
[12:07] <ror> opera sucks dude
[12:07] <nergar> first to methods
[12:07] <owh> oooops: Ask your questions in #ubuntu+1 please.
[12:07] <mat__> same thing, no more support for opera ?
[12:07] <owh> poningru: Not always. It depends on what else is going on.
[12:07] <tbuss> owh: ....nothing really i just configured my router to portfoward all request to my host machine 192.168.2.3 but the server actually has the address that is broadcast outside my LAN
[12:08] <oooops> how to get back my opera... in feisty..
[12:08] <owh> tbuss: All requests?
[12:08] <oooops> none use opera??
[12:08] <owh> oooops: As I said, ask the question in a place where people can actually help you, #ubuntu+1
[12:08] <poningru> nergar: ah hmm that means you didnt choose the right partition to mount
[12:08] <oooops> owh: why?
[12:09] <poningru> !opera | oooops
[12:09] <ubotu> oooops: opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[12:09] <wizard_> okay
[12:09] <wizard_> poningru: i am on my ubuntu box via wifi
[12:09] <wizard_> and its staying connected thus far
[12:09] <owh> oooops: Because here we deal with Breezy and Edgy, not Feisty. It's still in Beta.
[12:09] <tbuss> owh: when someone tries to log into the server, they cant log into 192.168.2.3 because of the router, all request are forwarded  from the router IP to 192.168.2.3
[12:09] <wizard_> poningru: kubuntu seems to just be problem-ridden :-(
[12:09] <cypher1> Bhaskar:
[12:09] <moosa> still no dice
[12:09] <poningru> oh frack
[12:09] <oooops> ok
[12:09] <cypher1> Bhaskar: sorry was away
[12:09] <nergar> poningru, i did, im not that noob :p
[12:09] <poningru> sorry guys I have to run
[12:09] <poningru> nergar: sorry to run on you dude
[12:10] <poningru> but class
[12:10] <nergar> lol
[12:10] <poningru> I'll try to be back later
[12:10] <owh> tbuss: Yes, I know what you mean, but I'm asking what it is that you configured. If all requests are sent to your Ubuntu box, then the Vonage responses are also sent there, making it break.
[12:10] <Bhaskar> cypher1, i could not solve resolution problem
[12:10] <cypher1> Bhaskar: did you manually add the screen resolutions to xorg.conf ?
[12:10] <nergar> nm, its 6 am here need to sleep poningru
[12:10] <cypher1> Bhaskar: i think the resolutions has to be mentioned from larger to smaller
[12:11] <Bhaskar> cypher1,ok
[12:11] <cypher1> Bhaskar: did you add the resolutions by hand ?
[12:11] <owh> tbuss: Which would be why the problem stops when you unplug the Ubuntu box :)
[12:11] <poningru> nergar: hold on
[12:12] <nergar> poningru, ok
[12:12] <poningru> nergar: use this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-a0b7dbaec35668690d12cc1b9a681d218c4ae89b
[12:12] <poningru> ok bbl
[12:12] <poningru> nergar: thats what that guy is saying
[12:12] <Bhaskar> cypher1,ya
[12:12] <bigr5026> Hello guys
[12:12] <cypher1> Bhaskar: please change it starting from high to low
[12:12] <cypher1> and try restarting X
[12:12] <bigr5026> Can i install ubuntu ontop of a current winblows install and not run into any bootloader issues
[12:12] <Bhaskar> cypher1,ok
[12:13] <nergar> poningru, i'll give it a try later i'm backing up right now and i need to sleep thanx a lot
[12:13] <wizard_> okay next question how to i make a shortcut on my desktop to a folder?
[12:13] <wizard_> i am really out of touch with gnome
[12:13] <tbuss> owh: I dont have the server running, does that matter? Okay, so how do you isolate the ATA, request sent to other computers on the network are not getting sent to this computer, I thought that's what the IP address is for. I'm not trying to be smart, just confused and frustrated
[12:13] <owh> tbuss: At the moment I need to tell you that I think the problem has nothing to do with Ubuntu, which is what I first thought. The problem is in your router. You need to remove your port forwarding for FTP and whatever else you fiddled with, then the ATA should start working again. If you want to direct FTP, then you need to forward port 21,
[12:14] <bigr5026> Can i install ubuntu ontop of a current winblows install and not run into any bootloader issues
[12:14] <cypher1> Bhaskar: also you can check /var/log/Xorg.0.log for any errors
[12:14] <tbuss> owh: I've got 20 and 21 open
[12:14] <cypher1> bigr5026: yes you can
[12:14] <bigr5026> Ok
[12:14] <owh> tbuss: You could put the ATA in something called the DMZ.
[12:14] <cypher1> bigr5026: grub recognizes windows
[12:14] <owh> tbuss: It depends on your router.
[12:14] <bigr5026> Ok, sorry
[12:14] <Emerson> if I'm in root mode how can I see all my passwords that is store in my machine ?
[12:14] <bigr5026> im sort of a noob to this stuff
[12:14] <cypher1> bigr5026: no problem
[12:15] <owh> Emerson: You can never see passwords, ever.
[12:15] <tbuss> owh: it has the option
[12:15] <Bhaskar> cypher1,restarting X no command found error
[12:15] <owh> tbuss: Then put your ATA into the DMZ.
[12:15] <nergar> poningru, thanx a lot brb
[12:15] <cypher1> Bhaskar: how did you restart X
[12:15] <owh> tbuss: You will have security issues with that. If you have not locked your ATA, someone can hack it like that.
[12:15] <tbuss> owh: So you are saying this necessary only because of the FTP server? Otherwise it would work as advertised?
[12:15] <Emerson> owh: I can see it in my terminal do I ?
[12:16] <owh> tbuss: I think that you have not setup port forwarding correctly for FTP.
[12:16] <Emerson> owh: if not how can I recover it ?
[12:16] <owh> tbuss: You should not need to put the ATA into the DMZ if you set the forwarding correctly.
[12:16] <owh> Emerson: You cannot recover it.
[12:16] <cypher1> Bhaskar: i think you may need to logout and do "startx" from the terminal
[12:16] <owh> Emerson: You cannot see your password in the terminal either.
[12:17] <wizard_> my power management icon wont come up
[12:17] <wizard_> :-(
[12:17] <owh> Emerson: What are you trying to do?
[12:17] <Emerson> owh: what you mean I can never ever see the password that is stored in my machine ever if I'm in root mode ?
[12:17] <tbuss> owh: You know, your probably right. I have only been using Linux for a little over a month. I've never tried to setup a server of any kind. I should probably go back and look everything over and do a little more reading
[12:17] <owh> Emerson: The passwords are not stored in clear text, they are encrypted. When you enter a password, it is encrypted too, then the two are compared.
[12:18] <ror> just passwd root to change it to something new
[12:18] <Bhaskar> cypher1,but no any change after startx
[12:18] <owh> tbuss: I don't think your problem is Linux, it's the router, but I agree, you should read more.
[12:18] <cypher1> Bhaskar: ah
[12:18] <tbuss> owh: I appreciate all of you help, learned a lot..............thanks
[12:18] <cypher1> Bhaskar: still @ 640x480 ?
[12:18] <Bhaskar> cypher1,ya
[12:18] <Emerson> owh: right I put a password for my router and now a forgot it but is store in my machine how can I recover it ?
[12:19] <owh> tbuss: Happy to help. You have not been charged for this free (and friendly) service :)
[12:19] <owh> Emerson: Your router? Or your Ubuntu computer?
[12:19] <Emerson> owh: yes
[12:19] <owh> Emerson: Yes, which one?
[12:19] <babo> guys, how do I get my home router to stop updating my nameserver value in /etc/resolv.conf ? I want to keep it at localhost ...
[12:20] <babo> or how do I get ubuntu to stop accepting the dhcp nameserver value ?
[12:20] <Emerson> owh: dapper-drake
[12:20] <cypher1> Bhaskar: sorry not sure then.. please repeat your question after some time
[12:20] <owh> babo: I *think* there is an option in the dhcp client, but I cannot remember.
[12:20] <Bhaskar> cypher1,ok,
[12:20] <owh> Emerson: So, your Ubuntu computer *is* your router?
[12:21] <bigr5026> um, why not just get a regular router
[12:21] <bigr5026> avoids alot of hassle
[12:21] <owh> bigr5026: That's a whole different question :)
[12:21] <Emerson> owh:no my ubuntu is my house network.
[12:22] <bigr5026> I know
[12:22] <babo> owh: where is the dhcp client ?
[12:22] <owh> Emerson: So, which password do you need?
[12:22] <babo> owh: command line if possible ...
[12:22] <owh> babo: apropos dhcp
[12:22] <bigr5026> Hell, go grab a wrt54gl and hack it with linux firmware
[12:22] <Emerson> owh:to recover the one which is stored in my ubuntu.
[12:22] <cafuego_> WHy hack? Just upload & reboot.
[12:23] <bigr5026> nah, so you can get the REALLY good stuff
[12:23] <ror> just copy the passwd and shadow files to where you need em
[12:23] <owh> Emerson: Ok, so which password do you need to recover?
[12:23] <Emerson> owh:the router one.
[12:23] <owh> Emerson: You are not making sense.
[12:24] <bytee> hi! its April 2007, when is Ubuntu 7.04 coming out?
[12:24] <ror> oh, you forgot your router password? just do a long reset on the router, will wipe everything back to default including password
[12:24] <owh> Emerson: The router password is on the router?
[12:24] <owh> Emerson: Not on your computer.
[12:24] <Emerson> owh:which is stored in my machine, sorry if I confused you.
[12:24] <ror> do you mean router password or do you mean wep key?
[12:24] <owh> Emerson: I still do not understand.
[12:24] <owh> ror: That might be a good guess :)
[12:25] <owh> Emerson: What are you trying to actually do?
[12:25] <ror> either way just do a long reset on the router which kicks everything back to default
[12:25] <owh> Emerson: That thing that you're doing that requires the password?
[12:25] <ricardo> Hey everyone
[12:25] <ricardo> i could use a bit of help here
[12:25] <owh> ror: And kills any configuration which may not have been setup by the user.
[12:25] <ricardo> just installed ubuntu and I can't find a partition i used to have
[12:26] <Emerson> owh:look I wanna recover the wap password do you understand ?
[12:26] <owh> Emerson: That's *not* the router password!
[12:26] <ror> oh, it's the wep key you want? just log into the router then and get it from there!
[12:26] <owh> Emerson: Right, now I understand.
[12:26] <owh> Emerson: What ror is saying is correct. Do you know how to do that?
[12:26] <bytee> If I install the Feisty Beta, can I upgrade to Feisty proper, with no problems?
[12:27] <bigr5026> Do any of you guys know a 7800gt nvidia drivers workaround?
[12:27] <owh> Emerson: When you tell me it's on your computer, what do you mean?
[12:27] <ror> connect with a wire, head to http://192.168.2.1 (or 1.1) and get it from there
[12:27] <ror> I thikn owh he means that network config utility has saved ir
[12:27] <ror> *it
[12:27] <owh> ror: That's a pretty big assumption.
[12:27] <ror> or perhaps it's stored in a config file somewhere
[12:27] <owh> Emerson: We're trying to help you, but you need to talk to us.
[12:27] <ror> *most* wirelss routers default to 192.168.2.1 now
[12:28] <ror> BT ones are an exception
[12:28] <ror> they're just weird
[12:28] <bigr5026> negative, ALL the routers i deal with are 192.168.1.1 or 0.1
[12:28] <owh> ror: Not where I live.
[12:28] <babo> owh: domain-name-servers = nameservers I'm guessing ? I don't have to restart a client do I ? I just change it and trust that the next update won't update the nameserver value .. ?
[12:28] <tbuss> owh: Just in case you wanted to know; deleted my port forwarding on 20 and 21, booted into Ubuntu and Vonage service works.
[12:28] <ror> either way, try 0.1,1.1,2.1 til you get a match
[12:28] <owh> babo: Yes,
[12:28] <ror> it'll be one of those
[12:28] <owh> tbuss: Excellent.
[12:28] <Emerson> owh:I mean I have a pc with dual boot right and now I'm browsing from the f..ck windows because I made a shit in my ubuntu so I have to configurate the ubuntu again you know what I mean ?
[12:29] <Vanargand> Anyone available to assist with java installation, seem to run in to all kinds of troubles with trying to make a deb file
[12:29] <jenda> Emerson: please keep the language family friendly.
[12:29] <owh> Emerson: So Windows connects to the router, but Ubuntu doesn't.
[12:29] <Emerson> owh: yes.
[12:29] <ror> what you're saying is that your wep key has been "remembered" by windows
[12:29] <tbuss> owh: thanks again man,
[12:29] <Emerson> jenda: sorry jenda.
[12:30] <jenda> owh, Emerson :)
[12:30] <ror> Just log into the router and get the key from there! if you don't know your router password either then you ought to write these things donw
[12:30] <owh> Emerson: Do you know how to connect to the router with a web browser?
[12:31] <Emerson> owh: yes I do 192.168.2.1
[12:31] <gelsen> Hello, I have a PPPoE over ATM connection. When my internet connection drops down I have to reboot my comp, to reconnect, what can be the cause?
[12:31] <bigr5026> any of you guys get a black screen of deaf when loading the GUI for the first time on the HDD boot
[12:31] <Emerson> owh: how ever my pc isn't a server so won't work.
[12:31] <owh> Emerson: So, copy down the WEP key.
[12:31] <bigr5026> death*
[12:31] <owh> Emerson: Huh?
[12:31] <ror> what the?
[12:32] <sisplau> hello
[12:32] <owh> Emerson: I'm leaving, ror will give you a hand :)
[12:32] <sisplau> i need to install ati drivers in wine
[12:32] <sisplau> how can?
[12:32] <ror> Emerson, just ipconfig in windows and look for your default gateway
[12:32] <ror> then head to that in your browser
[12:32] <Kendreague> Evening everyone =] 
[12:32] <Emerson> owh: cool many thanks.
[12:33] <owh> Emerson: Take a deep breath and enjoy.
[12:33] <bigr5026> Someone please help me, i go to load ubuntu for the first time off of the HDD< and i get a black screen loading the GUI
[12:33] <Ludo_> bigr5026: at the boot?
[12:33] <bigr5026> after the loading screen
[12:33] <Emerson> ror: but it won't show the wap password ?
[12:34] <pic_himself> hi, is anybody experiencing problem with network-manager? i got problems connecting to WPA1 protected and MAC filtered network. Obviously my MAC is in the admitted list
[12:34] <Emerson> ror: just my ip.
[12:34] <Emerson> ror: is it ?
[12:34] <ror> no, but logging into the router in your browser will show your wep key
[12:34] <sisplau> how can install ati drivers in wine?
[12:34] <bigr5026> Yes, at the boot
[12:34] <Emerson> ror: how?
[12:34] <ror> Emerson: pastebin your ipconfig output
[12:35] <ZeroZiat> Damn, that's some people, and after this user finishes, may I get help too? =)
[12:35] <SlimeyPete> sisplau: umm... you can't. You don't install drivers in wine. Wine uses your existing Linux drivers.
[12:35] <sisplau> ok thanks
[12:35] <Emerson> ror: hold on an minute let me see.
[12:35] <ror> ZeroZiat, what's up?
[12:35] <bigr5026> Ludo_ at boot
[12:35] <sisplau> i read on internet
[12:35] <gelsen> anybody, any ideea?
[12:35] <sisplau> for many games is needed
[12:36] <ZeroZiat> Heh, well, I decided to start using Linux and chosen Ubuntu as my first distro.
[12:36] <Ludo_> bigr5026: maybe a problem with the xorg.conf configuration
[12:36] <bigr5026> IDK
[12:36] <ZeroZiat> So, I DLed the ISO, burned it and booted on the disk
[12:36] <bigr5026> its the first time i booted off of the HDD
[12:36] <bigr5026> How can i fix that
[12:36] <ZeroZiat> Burnt* =P
[12:36] <ZeroZiat> Anyways, I cannot connect to the internet.
[12:36] <peskymo> hello
[12:36] <bigr5026> i know the first time i went to load the GUI it froze becuase i popped the CD out
[12:37] <Kendreague> I was wondering if anybody here has experience with Breezy on an OldWorld Wallstreet powerbook?
[12:37] <ZeroZiat> The boot process was fine and smooth, everything looked good, but I couldn't connect to the internet, even though I set it up in the networking part.
[12:37] <ZeroZiat> I am on a Wireless network.
[12:37] <peskymo> anyone installed on a sunfire v100 / netra x1 ?
[12:37] <bigr5026> ludo_ :i know the first time i went to load the GUI it froze becuase i popped the CD out
[12:37] <ror> Wireless can be tricky in linux still;
[12:37] <Emerson> ror: are you there ?
[12:38] <bigr5026> ludo_ :   i know the first time i went to load the GUI it froze becuase i popped the CD out
[12:38] <ror> Emerson, yes
[12:38] <ZeroZiat> =S
[12:38] <ZeroZiat> Does that mean I cannot set it up, or that it'll get out some sweat?
[12:38] <Emerson> ror: don't work which ip I have to put the one from my machine ?
[12:38] <ror> Emerson, do you have your ipconfig output?
[12:39] <Emerson> ror: I do ?
[12:39] <bigr5026> is there a way i can have the xorg.conf
[12:39] <bigr5026> re autocinfuged
[12:39] <ZeroZiat> BTW, I still didn't install Ubuntu in my hard drive.
[12:39] <aalhamad> can i brows  web pages from the terminal? or console?
[12:39] <aalhamad> what packages do i need..?
[12:39] <Enselic``> aalhamad: sudo apt-get install lynx
[12:39] <Suurorca> aalhamad: lynx or links. latter is newer/better
[12:40] <aalhamad> thanks
[12:40] <Enselic``> aalhamad: or links
[12:40] <mneptok> w3m
[12:40] <mneptok> installed by default
[12:40] <ror> if you have X installed then elinks is good, has better colour support
[12:40] <ror> just needs some xlibs (have no idea why)
[12:40] <bigr5026> How can i start X from the prompt
[12:40] <mneptok> startx
[12:40] <ror> bigjohnto, startx usually does it
[12:40] <mbm1980> aalhamad: try www-browser
[12:41] <Emerson> ror: what I can do then ?
[12:41] <Enselic``> mneptok: hey cool browser
[12:41] <ror> Emerson, paste it to a pastebin so I can look at it
[12:41] <mbm1980> aalhamad: should be installed by default
[12:41] <aalhamad> ok let me try it
[12:41] <Emerson> ror: cool which pastebin ?
[12:41] <Enselic``> Emerson: rafb.net/paste
[12:41] <ZeroZiat> ror: So, anyways, I've read the help documents, there is not much of them I can understand.
[12:41] <ror> Emerson, any?/
[12:42] <mbm1980> ZeroZiat: have you tried setting up your wireless connection again? maybe you mistyped something
[12:42] <Suurorca> www-browser = lynx =p
[12:42] <ror> ZeroZiat, can you run iwconfig
[12:42] <ZeroZiat> In Ubuntu?
[12:42] <ror> see if you have a wireless card installed properl
[12:42] <bigr5026> how do i shut down from terminal
[12:42] <ZeroZiat> I am on Windows ATM.
[12:42] <bigr5026> ?
[12:42] <ror> yeah, iwconfig in ubuntu
[12:42] <Enselic``> bigr5026: shutdown
[12:42] <ror> should say something about wireless interfaces
[12:42] <ZeroZiat> Aha... is that a package or does it come already?
[12:42] <bigr5026> it says time expected
[12:43] <mbm1980> ZeroZiat: It's just like 'ipconfig' in DOS.
[12:43] <bigr5026> i put in 1
[12:43] <ZeroZiat> So I type that in the terminal?
[12:43] <ror> yup
[12:43] <Enselic``> bigr5026: shutdown -h 1
[12:43] <ZeroZiat> Okay, thanks.
[12:43] <Enselic``> bigr5026: or -r for reboot
[12:43] <ror> iwconfig is for wireless, ifconfig for all interfaces
[12:43] <ZeroZiat> Back to rebooting.
[12:43] <mbm1980> bigr5026: shutdown -h now
[12:43] <ZeroZiat> I'll write that down, because I have no idea on how to reach my other drive from Ubuntu.
[12:43] <ZeroZiat> Partition*
[12:44] <bigr5026> god i hope the GUI loads
[12:44] <mbm1980> ZeroZiat: I would recommend using the latest 7.04 beta
[12:44] <bigr5026> This isnt even my flappin laptop
[12:44] <ror> You'd have to mount it, but ntfs can be dodgy and maybe no write support depending how your kernel is configured
[12:44] <ZeroZiat> mbm1980: I did not download it, as it was a beta, and downloading the whole thing again is frustrating. =/
[12:45] <ZeroZiat> Doh.
[12:45] <ZeroZiat> Ubuntu 7.04 is the most user-friendly Ubuntu to date and includes a ground-breaking Windows migration assistant, excellent wireless networking support and improved multimedia support.
[12:46] <Emerson> ror: you get it ?
[12:46] <bigr5026> How do i find wifi card drivers now
[12:46] <ror> get what>
[12:46] <pic_himself> the feisty official stable release is on April 19th, right?
[12:46] <ror> funny thing is, 6.10 immediately tries to pull 300megs of updates from the net anyway
[12:46] <SlimeyPete> pic_himself: yup
[12:47] <ZeroZiat> Okay, I think I will install Ubuntu on my HDD. But I'd have to backup my files. It would fail. =/
[12:47] <Enselic``> Is there a way to set Ubuntu i "laptop mode", i.e. no GUI just a bare system and smart HD maintainance
[12:47] <ZeroZiat> Could*
[12:47] <bigr5026>  How do i go ahead and grab WIFI drivers for this damn thing
[12:47] <bigr5026> arararharhahrharh
[12:47] <mrigns> !wifi bigr5026
[12:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wifi bigr5026 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:47] <SlimeyPete> Enselic``: install Ubuntu Server?
[12:47] <mrigns> !wlan bigr5026
[12:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wlan bigr5026 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:48] <mrigns> !wireless bigr5026
[12:48] <compengi> how can i know if vga's driver is installed or not?
[12:48] <ror> Enselic``, remove xdm/gdm from default runlevel
[12:48] <Emerson> ror: hold on I tryed again now came up a window to type a username and password.
[12:48] <mrigns> !wireless bigr5026
[12:48] <Enselic``> ror: I can stop gdm, but that's not a big difference is it?
[12:48] <bimberi> !wireless | bigr5026
[12:48] <ubotu> bigr5026: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:48] <Enselic``> it's the HD activity and such that can be optimized
[12:48] <graabein> anyone tried the new version of freeciv?? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=399516
[12:48] <ror> Enselic``, if you stop gdm then X won't start by default
[12:48] <bigr5026> hw do i find out what i got
[12:49] <bimberi> mrigns: need that |    :)
[12:49] <Enselic``> ror: that's like the point :)
[12:49] <mrigns> bimberi: gorgot that :D
[12:49] <ZeroZiat> I just have a few 4. Gigs DVDs. XD
[12:49] <ror> right, isn't that what you're trying to achieve?
[12:49] <SlimeyPete> bigr5026: if it's an internal card, run lspci. If it's a usb one run lsusb.
[12:49] <Enselic``> ror:  I want to strip all unncessecary deamons, bu in a simple way
[12:49] <SlimeyPete> bigr5026: that should give you a hint, at least
[12:49] <ror> oh, you just want a more simple graphical user interface?
[12:50] <Enselic``> ror: I don't need a GUI, but I need battery saving measurments
[12:50] <ror> if you don't need a gui you don't need X
[12:50] <ror> so dont' start X
[12:50] <ror> so stop gdm running at boot
[12:50] <mbm1980> ZeroZiat: Yeah, backup and play around with Ubuntu. Don't worry about failing, that is how you'll learn. =)
[12:50] <ror> then you get a terminal login
[12:50] <Enselic``> ror: Yes, I know. What I am asking is how to *further* optimize my system for low-power.
[12:51] <graabein> Enselic``, have you tried server install of ubuntu?
[12:51] <ZeroZiat> mbm1980: I was talking about losing all my files. That's learning and owie.
[12:51] <mbm1980> ZeroZiat: If you have a backup computer you could run IRC on it. ;-)
[12:51] <Enselic``> graabein: nope, and my 4 hour trip is in 3 hours, so I dont have time :(
[12:51] <ZeroZiat> mbm1980: I have a laptop, problem is, it is not for backups.
[12:51] <finalbeta> Enselic``: if you don't use slocate, disable it, it's the biggest useless resource drain then.
[12:51] <ror> you could recompile your kernel to have powersaving stuff like throttling
[12:52] <ikick221> Everyone join: #too-sexy Only sexy people allowed!!!!!!!!! and people who think their sexy!!!!!!
[12:52] <jin> hello
[12:52] <graabein> ikick221, lol
[12:52] <Emerson> ror: are you still willing to help me, please ?
[12:52] <jin> the desktop effects feature is broken here
[12:52] <ror> slocate is *very* powerful tho, and once it's catalogued your system it doesn't constantly read like the windows version
[12:52] <ZeroZiat> ikick221: Lol.
[12:52] <ror> Emerson, I cannot help you if you won't help yourself
[12:52] <ikick221> lol
[12:52] <Enselic``> ror: yeah, but no time for that :(
[12:52] <shriphani> please recommend a lightwieght web browser
[12:52] <ror> Recompiling a kernel takes no more than an hour really, and that's if things go wrong
[12:52] <ikick221> Everyone join: #too-sexy Only sexy people allowed!!!!!!!!! and people who think their sexy!!!!!!
[12:52] <ikick221> yep
[12:52] <Enselic``> shriphani: w3c
[12:52] <Carsten-> lol
[12:53] <shriphani> Enselic``, w3c or w3m ?
[12:53] <compengi> ikick221, and if someone thinks that he is sexy and he is not?
[12:53] <compengi> :P
[12:53] <ZeroZiat> Don't think you'll find secksy people on Linux channel.
[12:53] <Enselic``> shriphani: w3m*
[12:53] <ZeroZiat> Just a suggestion. >_>
[12:53] <finalbeta> ror, it doesn't constantly read, but it does take the cpu to max for about 3 minuts and disk and kill total system performance. So if you don't use it, it's a big drain.
[12:53] <Emerson> ror: I got the ip, subnetmask and default getway what next ?
[12:53] <graabein> we are all hell sexy
[12:53] <ZeroZiat> Ehem, we are in #ubuntu. Prove it. XD
[12:53] <finalbeta> ror, on a laptop it's really just horrible.
[12:53] <ror> enter the IP of your default gateway into your web browser
[12:53] <mbm1980> Beryl and emerald is hot
[12:54] <ror> well I Wouldn't recommend cronning updatedb if you're on a laptop that's for sure
[12:54] <shriphani> Enselic``, a graphic interface browser please
[12:54] <methodx> Hi can you tell my what may be the cause of ubuntu freezeing very often?
[12:54] <shriphani> methodx, you installed a closed source app
[12:54] <mbm1980> methodx: low temperature in your room
[12:54] <finalbeta> ror, wel ubuntu does that by default, although 90% of it's users probably have no idea what it's fore, less then use it.
[12:54] <salty-horse> hi. when I manually install the nvidia driver and restart gdm it works, but when I restart my computer it doesn't find it again. what am I doing wrong?
[12:55] <ZeroZiat> mbm1980: I have a laptop, problem is, it is not for backups.
[12:55] <methodx> like win rar?:P temerature is normal
[12:55] <ror> ubuntu has some crazy defaults but I Guess that's all in the "it just works" philosophy
[12:55] <ZeroZiat> mbm1980: And some 4.7 Gigs DVDs.
[12:55] <methodx> how about firewall?
[12:55] <finalbeta> ror, updatedb reminds me of windows, running services in the background, because some user will need it some time. No good at all.
[12:55] <ZeroZiat> Oh, what could happen if an error happened on the setup?
[12:55] <LjL> finalbeta: then disable it... anyway, it's not precisely the latest buzz, it's been there since like the 1980s :P
[12:56] <LjL> or before
[12:56] <mbm1980> ZeroZiat: Backup is a must mate. =)
[12:56] <ror> that's not what the slocate service does tho
[12:56] <ZeroZiat> mbm1980: I don't have where! =S
[12:56] <ror> it'll update the index every time you move/create files, but only has to read/hash that one file you've just made
[12:56] <ror> so unless you work with large files it's efficient
[12:56] <ror> having said that, there are plenty of services you can kill
[12:56] <Enselic``> finalbeta: but slocate is only run when I run it, isn't it?
[12:57] <sYnie> after the last kubuntu upgrade, all my selfcompiled c++ programs don't work on machines with older kernels anymore. i always get a "FATAL: kernel too old". is there any way to fix this?
[12:57] <finalbeta> Enselic``: no ubuntu runs it every day.
[12:57] <ror> bluetooth, gdm, cpus, samba, festival
[12:57] <Enselic``> finalbeta: uh oh, so how do I disable it? I had no slocated process
[12:58] <ror> if you want to really save power, disable sound card
[12:58] <ror> turn the brightness on your monitor down
[12:58] <finalbeta> Enselic``: the process = updatedb, you must have seen it already, there are posts on the forum on how to kill it
[12:58] <bigr5026> hey
[12:58] <bigr5026> quick question
[12:58] <bigr5026> if i want to upgrade to the new beta
[12:58] <bigr5026> what do i have to do
[12:58] <finalbeta> Enselic``: it runs a couple minutes after boot, if you are on a laptop, you will notice movies start ticking, disk activity and cpu go max.
[12:58] <bigr5026> theres no upgrade feature to linux i think
[12:58] <Enselic``> finalbeta: hmm, appears as if I don't have it
[12:59] <Enselic``> finalbeta: mightbe cause I'm on feisty
[12:59] <finalbeta> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=6279
[12:59] <ZeroZiat> Irony, I am reading a support article on upgrading from 6.10 to 7.04.
[12:59] <finalbeta> Enselic``: i'm on feisty 2, but I have been upgrading since dapper.
[01:00] <Vanargand> Anyone here able to assist in installing Java?
[01:01] <bytee> finalbeta: so does that mean that if i install some form of feisty today, i can upgrade all the way till feisty final?
[01:01] <finalbeta> bytee: yes

[01:04] <bytee> ok!
[01:04] <mrigns> more software in the repos for 32bit though
[01:04] <ror> just install the 32bit version of firefox or whatever
[01:05] <ror> with 64bit everything else
[01:05] <mrigns> ror: its buggy for some
[01:05] <mrigns> many are QQing about that in the forums
[01:05] <ror> oh, rubbish :(
[01:06] <finalbeta> 64bit wont give you any noticeable performance increase, and is likely to cause some issues?
[01:06] <finalbeta> -?+.
[01:06] <bytee> i guess with more and more laptops being core2duo based, it'd make sense if this FAQ was made more clear on the download page
[01:06] <ror> hopefully gplflash will hurry up and produce a decent realse soon
[01:06] <foxiness> can i stop gaim from open chanserv,freenode,nickserv on seperated tab ?
[01:06] <mrigns> foxiness: you need the irchelper plugin
[01:06] <ror> 64bit may give you some performance increases, just because the fact it's 64bit means it's probably optimised for newer CPus with regard to mmx, sse2 and similar
[01:06] <ror> whereas i386 is optimised to be compatible for very old computers
[01:07] <foxiness> mrigns: thnx i will see if it come by defalut then i will enable it
[01:07] <mrigns> ror: there are kernels within x86 build for 686 to
[01:08] <mrigns> 2.6.20-13-generic
[01:08] <ror> what about all the software in the repositories, is that all i686?
[01:09] <kulu> i am having problem with j2sdk 1.4 document acn any one help me out ?
[01:09] <mrigns> they are compatible with each other and you dont got any decrease in performance running 386 stuff on 686
[01:10] <ror> sure you do
[01:10] <foxiness> can i let orca read for me a pdf file ? "i can not get it work"
[01:10] <ror> if something is compiled for i386 it won't have sse2/mmx instructions
[01:10] <ror> that'll give you significant decrease in performance
[01:11] <Kendreague> I'm sitting in setup right now, it's telling me "Continue without bootloader", but hitting Option + F2 to bring up a console isn't doing anything, I sit at a black screen. Any reason why?
[01:11] <kulu> Please visit http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html now and download.  The file should be owned by root.root and be copied to /tmp.
[01:13] <mrigns> ror actually there is no real i686
[01:13] <mrigns> its just a nickname
[01:13] <foxiness> kulu: did u try to install netbeans ?
[01:13] <mrigns> and the software is compiled in x86 (IA-32)
[01:13] <ror> it's a convention for saying it's compiled with optimisations for newer processors
[01:13] <ror> x86 is the architecture, i686 is the instruction set
[01:14] <babo> how do I prompt a dhcp server / desktop reconnect ?
[01:14] <babo> renewal of lease ... or whatever it's called ...
[01:14] <ror> dhcpcd
[01:14] <EnsignRedshirt> I'm running dapper.  Have there been any problems reported with the recent X update?  Updates of big thing like X or the kernel make me nervous.
[01:14] <Flo_> hello.. can someone please help me getting my pcmcia cardreader to work?
[01:15] <mrigns> ror the intel p6 instruction set was build in 1995
[01:15] <babo> ror: it's in a repo ?
[01:15] <foxiness> mrigns: wich one should i pick ? http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=137778&package_id=151258&release_id=419142
[01:15] <ror> babo: oh, didn't realise it's not on by default, there should be  dhcp client somewhere by default
[01:15] <aalhamad> mneptok, back
[01:16] <mrigns> foxiness: the *.tar.bz2
[01:16] <mrigns> further insturctions should be within
[01:16] <rjg_> hey guys
[01:16] <mrigns> greetings
[01:16] <rjg_> I have more questions about the merge
[01:16] <ror> either way you still get more optimisations than i386
[01:16] <rjg_> Are we going to need to change our GIT repositorys and or add one? When will we be told what repositorys we will need? Is the beryl one going to be abandoned? Finally, will Trevino's snapshots repository still work?
[01:17] <foxiness> mrigns: k ,thanks a lot
[01:18] <finalbeta> rjg_: ehm, ask in a beryl/compiz related channel... And the merger is not happening yet.
[01:18] <mrigns> you're welcome
[01:19] <rjg_> ohh, oooops
[01:19] <DeL3e7> i got beryl running on my computer, not terribly stable occasionaly crashes
[01:19] <rjg_> I forgot I  didn't have auto=join on beryl
[01:20] <jin> why is azureus from the repo always broken?

[01:36] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)

[01:40] <coty> my torrents only download at 20 kb/s
[01:40] <coty> im on dsl
[01:40] <hidde1> wizard_: is your card supported?
[01:40] <wizard_> hidde1: yup
[01:40] <hidde1> coty: depends on the number of peopel sharing the file
[01:40] <wizard_> hidde1: im on it right now actually
[01:40] <wizard_> hidde1: thru the standard wifi tool in gnome
[01:40] <hidde1> wizard_: running feisty?
[01:40] <wizard_> edgy
[01:40] <hidde1> coty: how many peers have you got?
[01:40] <sacater> coty: my torrents only download at like 0.4kbs
[01:40] <bimberi> wizard_: have you disabled all interfaces except "lo" in /etc/network/interfaces
[01:40] <coty> hidde1: it has always downloaded that slow
[01:40] <bimberi> ?
[01:41] <wizard_> bimberi: not all
[01:41] <wizard_> bimberi: but my wireless ne yes
[01:41] <sacater> coty: some of them
[01:41] <Kendreague> Hit a small problem now... The install went fine, but while booting I'm told that my root partition has errors, and then a repair fails.

[01:41] <coty> Im not sure
[01:41] <jvandermeeren> hey.. is there a way to get cups to print to  a Xerox WorkCentre M24  ?
[01:41] <hidde1> wizard_ : im running feisty, wireless is PERFECT :p
[01:41] <coty> 11 peers
[01:41] <bimberi> wizard_: hmmk
[01:41] <coty> people tell me they can download at 150 kb/s
[01:41] <hidde1> wizard_: that doesn't help much though sorry :(
[01:41] <coty> or more
[01:41] <hidde1> coty: you just need more peers or people with better connections
[01:42] <hidde1> what is your speed (as in mbps)
[01:42] <wizard_> bimberi: should it all be blanked out? or should the device not be in use?
[01:42] <coty> not sure about that
[01:42] <hidde1> coz that could be affecting it
[01:42] <coty> all i can say is it is dsl
[01:42] <hidde1> well then
[01:42] <hidde1> you may have 256
[01:42] <hidde1> kbps
[01:42] <bimberi> wizard_: it should be commented out at least (with # at the start of the line(s))
[01:42] <coty> ok
[01:42] <hidde1> which downloads at about 20 kb/s
[01:43] <coty> alright
[01:43] <hidde1> my friend had that till today. just check with your isp
[01:43] <coty> what
[01:43] <hidde1> coty: internet service provider
[01:43] <coty> yea
[01:43] <coty> but why check with them
[01:43] <wizard_> bimberi: all done brb
[01:43] <hidde1> coz they would know lol :p
[01:43] <hidde1> wait, on their site
[01:43] <hidde1> they might have a "test file"
[01:43] <coty> ok
[01:44] <hidde1> if you download that it should go at about your full speed
[01:44] <hidde1> you can then work out your connection speed from that
[01:44] <hidde1> and compare it with your torrent speed
[01:44] <wizard_> bimberi: when i click the link it only has an option for wired netowrk
[01:44] <coty> i also heard that the speed has to do with ports
[01:44] <wizard_> bimberi: yet i am connected via wireless as i type this lol
[01:44] <hidde1> coty: i don't know anything about that sorry :(

[01:45] <kulu> any one
[01:46] <bimberi> wizard_: reboot perhaps?
[01:46] <predaeus> Kendreague, probably your hard disk is faulty. Or just some error while installing. You could try a reinstall and let the installer check the Ubuntu CD before installing.
[01:46] <jin> any tool I can use to create a desktop video?
[01:46] <jin> I want to make a vid of my desktop
[01:47] <predaeus> jin, try xvidcap, but it is quite limited. Did not find a better proggy yet though :-(
[01:47] <bimberi> jin: there is istanbul
[01:47] <kulu> please visit http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html  now and download.  The file should be owned by root.root and be copied
[01:47] <hidde1> jin: also gtkrecordmydesktop or something like that
[01:47] <hidde1> works sometimes :p
[01:47] <GeirOla> there's also "RecordMyDesktop" supposed to be good
[01:47] <predaeus> bimberi, did istanbul improve, it was totally buggy when I last tried?
[01:47] <Kendreague> predaeus: I checked the CD before this install, it's never been used before, shipped from Canonical. The hard disk checked out in Norton Disk Doctor before I formatted, along with Disk Utility (Before OS X crashed.) I'll re-install now anyway.
[01:47] <GeirOla> although I've never managed to get it to work :)
[01:48] <GeirOla> guess i need a better gpu to record beryl
[01:48] <bimberi> predaeus: probably not :|
[01:48] <predaeus> Kendreague, hm, that sucks. No idea, sorry.
[01:48] <orange1> whats the equivalent of daemon tools on linux?
[01:48] <jin> my windows are not so responsive as on windows xp :(
[01:48] <Kendreague> Could it be the fact that I used ext2 instead of ext3 journaled?

[01:48] <jin> it leaves a trace behind for a fraction of a second :(

[01:49] <jin> nazo029A, nvidia
[01:49] <GeirOla> that link was for you :)
[01:49] <nazo029A> @Jin I installed Nvidia propietary drivers on this lappy and it fixed the problem
[01:49] <orange1> predaeus: i dont need to convert the image - i just want to mount an image with protection so i can run it
[01:50] <jin> nazo029A, I have the driver installed too

[01:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about refresh - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:50] <foxiness> is there search tool better this come by defalut with ubuntu ? like try to find file/folder like this "gaim.pc" or "/dic" ,'beagle,tracker,....'=last time i test beagle on dapper.
[01:51] <hk-> how do I open a .img file in linux?
[01:51] <predaeus> orange1, you would have to creat mymountpoint before. you can mount everywhere in your tree.
[01:51] <rambo3> hk-, is it dvd or cd ?
[01:51] <nazo029A> @Jin well im pretty sure it has something to do with matching your refresh rates correctly in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[01:51] <GeirOla> orange1,:  if that doesn't work try "sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 my.iso /media/mymountpoint"
[01:51] <kulu> j2sdk-1_4_2-doc.zip
[01:51] <hk-> rambo3, probably a cd
[01:51] <nazo029A> @Jin thst would give you a good start at least
[01:51] <jvandermeeren> has anyone got jpackage up and running ?
[01:51] <rambo3> 1img | hk-
[01:52] <rambo3> !img | hk-
[01:52] <jin> nazo029A, do you mean the hor and vert refresh rates?
[01:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about img - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:52] <nazo029A> @Jin yeah
[01:52] <rambo3> hk-, then i dont know img dvd you change the end of file to iso
[01:52] <orange1> predaeus/geriola: thanks
[01:53] <predaeus> :-)
[01:53] <hk-> tried renaming it to .iso but archive manager says that it's not in iso9660 format
[01:55] <wizard_> is there any way to make terminal remember its size?
[01:55] <jin> nazo029A, I can't find the reresh rates for my monitor
[01:55] <jin> :(
[01:56] <wizard_> o lnpw o asled that already
[01:56] <magnanimous> jin: I don't know, but there may be one in the xorg.conf file
[01:56] <wizard_> but just curious
[01:56] <jin> magnanimous, mine does not have any set
[01:57] <Stormx2> wizard_: You could script it..
[01:57] <ubuntu_ian> anybody managed to get two monitors working each monitor connected to a different nVidia card?
[01:58] <wizard_> Stormx2: so no default way to make it stop resizing back to the small one?
[01:58] <smileboot> ok tried the alternate cd of ubuntu  so i get to the "detecting hardware for cd rom" screen  it goes thru the scan  then just stops and does nothing
[01:58] <orange1> predaeus: how do i create mymountpoint
[01:58] <magnanimous> jin:  are you using GNOME?  System --> Preferences --? Screen resolution   ... it has a dropdown for refresh rate
[01:58] <Stormx2> wizard_: oh, yeah, you could do that. 1 moment
[01:58] <jin> I only see 55 and 55
[01:58] <smileboot> any perticular reason why?
[01:58] <smileboot> do i have to enter somthing at this point?
[01:58] <Kendreague> Okay I'm confused. "Input/Output error during write on /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc"
[01:58] <predaeus> orange1, e.g.   sudo mkdir /media/mymountpoint   or whatever you want to call it.    you can create it anywhere you like. it is just a directory
[01:59] <predaeus> orange1, e.g.    /home/orange1/Desktop/myisoimage   would also be possible
[01:59] <wizard_> Stormx2: i am not a new linux usr by any means tho... just never, ever used gnome before
[01:59] <Stormx2> wizard_: man gnome-terminal - look for startup sizes etc. Then edit your menus, find the Terminal entity and add the options
[01:59] <magnanimous> jin: oh ... ummm, If I knew which file dictated those settings I'd say you can change it... but I haven't had to tinker with that yet
[01:59] <predaeus> hk-, did you try to mount it instead of extracting it?
[02:00] <nazo029A> its in the xorg near the resolutions and color depths
[02:00] <kane77> how do I run a script in the time when the system starts (with root privileges)? I mean even before I log in.. (to make it run for every user) Is the network interface on when there's the login screen?
[02:00] <hk-> predaeus, I did, mount complains about a wrong file type
[02:00] <wizard_> Stormx2: i don't get it
[02:00] <JuJuBee> What is the command to mount a share on a server with a specific uid?
[02:00] <Geiern> exit
[02:00] <predaeus> hk-, hm doh thought so :-(
[02:00] <jin> magez_, lcd's are around 60 ?
[02:00] <Kendreague> I'm thinking something's wrong with the CD -- It's misreading partitions, saying they're not there when they are. I'm going to try 6.06 instead
[02:00] <hk-> :)
[02:00] <orange1> predaeus: what if the image is on my network -- how do i target it ?
[02:00] <wizard_> Stormx2: edit my menus?
[02:00] <jin> magnanimous, ^^
[02:00] <predaeus> !iso > hk-
[02:00] <orange1> predaeus: in the cmd line
[02:00] <Stormx2> wizard_: Right click "Applications" > Edit Menus
[02:00] <jin> I mean the refreshrates
[02:01] <predaeus> hk-, probably that link includes a solution for .img.
[02:01] <wizard_> Stormx2: ahhh i got it
[02:01] <hk-> predaeus, Thanks, I'll check it out
[02:01] <wizard_> i applied to my launch icon "gnome-terminal --geometry 96x24"
[02:01] <alkoool> hi, I need help to configure route
[02:01] <wizard_> Stormx2: works just fine
[02:01] <Kendreague> could someone please tell me the boot arguments for a non-gui install of 6.06?
[02:02] <aleksanteri> hey i've got a kubuntu iso and i would be ready to burn it but i'm unsure about this thing as the last time i used linux my bios broke down... how can i be sure that it won't happen again? :|
[02:02] <Stormx2> wizard_: Good :)
[02:03] <clemyeats> aleksanteri: kubuntu is not going to break your bios...
[02:03] <wizard_> Stormx2: now to see if my wireless reonnects
[02:03] <smileboot> so no help for my prob?
[02:03] <orange1> predaeus: looking at folder path its " smb://mil/Games "
[02:03] <predaeus> aleksanteri, I've never heard of a linux distro harming a BIOS. But if you are unsure you can wait 2-3 weeks for the official Ubuntu Feisty Fawn release which will be even easier to install and maintain.
[02:04] <Stormx2> smileboot: Did you verify the iso?
[02:04] <smileboot> cant does the same thing
[02:04] <aleksanteri> well what could be the cause of the bios breaking down? >_>
[02:04] <smileboot> nero checked it and said was fine (but i know nero is unreliable)
[02:04] <predaeus> orange1, sorry I've no experience with mounting images over samba/the network.
[02:05] <orange1> kk
[02:05] <smileboot> the actual iso matched the md5 tho
[02:05] <smileboot> so atleast i know thats good
[02:05] <smileboot> i think its not liking my cd driver or the controler  either way im stumped
[02:06] <GeirOla> what's your problem smileboot? Jmicron controller?
[02:06] <predaeus> aleksanteri, what do you mean with BIOS breakdown? did you have to send it in to let factory flash it? or did you have to set jumpers to fix it or what happened?
[02:07] <smileboot> ok before i continue this is an old dell
[02:07] <aleksanteri> well i needed a whole new motherboard >_>
[02:07] <smileboot> optiplex gx115 to be exact
[02:07] <aleksanteri> i had linux with windows on the same hard drive. first windows went inaccessible and then linux went
[02:07] <smileboot> with some random cdrw slapped into it
[02:07] <GeirOla> ah..and Ubuntu won't find the cdrw?
[02:08] <Nalleman> i woud like som help with mounting a ntfs partition. how should i edit fstab?
[02:08] <smileboot> yeah but how it can get as far as the hardware detection frys my tiny little mind
[02:08] <osfameron> what do I do if rosegarden can't initialize the MIDI layer?
[02:08] <smileboot> if i can slap the installer into using the cd drive in the basic way i can eliminate that as the issue
[02:09] <osfameron> as in, where do I look to find out what that means and how to fix it ?
[02:09] <GeirOla> smileboot: maybe if you boot with "all-generic-ide irqpoll" as boot options
[02:09] <predaeus> orange1, probably search into smbmount or mount with the -t option and smbfs (see google, man smbmount, man mount)
[02:09] <GeirOla> if i understand correctly :)
[02:09] <ssorg> hi i have a weird problem I have a default dapper install but i cant find stuff like mplayer / w32codecs / avcodecs ?
[02:09] <aleksanteri> it costed ~200 so i wouldn't like to go through it again :|
[02:10] <smileboot> ok so i just slap that exactly as said into the boot options?
[02:10] <wizard_> mp3 support in rhythmbox?
[02:10] <wizard_> !mp3

[02:10] <ssorg> hi i have a weird problem I have a default dapper install but i cant find stuff like mplayer / w32codecs / avcodecs with SPM ?
[02:10] <orange1> predaeus: does this mount with just iso -- cuz on the link earlier - it shows all these cmds to convert to iso
[02:10] <ssorg> !wma

[02:11] <wizard_> how do i get mp3 on rhytmbox?
[02:11] <smileboot> crap :/
[02:12] <JuJuBee> Can someone assist me with mounting /home from a server if my local uid=1000 and remote uid=1003?  I tried the mount -U 1003 192.168.6.31:/home /mnt/server command but it tells me no partition found.
[02:12] <predaeus> orange1, I am not sure. Actually I think it might not work because from my short readings into the topic that I just did, it seems that you would have to have the iso mounted in windows already to then access the mounted iso in you linux. But I have no experience with this. Probably there is a samba channel where you could ask for details. Lemme check.
[02:12] <Luxurious> Howdy.
[02:12] <vprajan> hi all..
[02:13] <jin> now the windows move much better :)
[02:13] <vprajan> i recently installed apache, postgresql, php5.. but there is no shortcuts under applications menu to start or stop services..
[02:13] <predaeus> orange1, probably join #samba and ask there
[02:13] <orange1> predaeus: already there
[02:13] <Luxurious> This may not end up being a software related question (unless there's a magical solution I don't know of), but I have this Ubuntu box with no monitor under my dask and a Mac (on my desk).  What I want to do is use the Ubuntu desktop through my Mac somehow.
[02:14] <Luxurious> I tried VNC but I couldn't get it to be as fast as I needed, even though they were connected directly to each other.
[02:14] <Kendreague> 6.06 boot is hanging at "Begin: Waiting for root device"
[02:14] <Luxurious> (Via a CAT-5 fellow)
[02:14] <vprajan> Kendreague: it seems like ur hard disk problem
[02:15] <Kendreague> If I had a hard disk problem, OS9 or OSX would be bitching about it.
[02:15] <Kendreague> they're running perfectly.
[02:15] <Nalleman> Someone who knows how to mount a ntfs partition in ubuntu simple and stupid?
[02:15] <Kendreague> should I have root set to the boot CD, or the install partition?
[02:16] <rambo3> think
[02:16] <wizard_> how does one go about gettting support for mp3 in rhythmbox?
[02:16] <Pici> !mp3 | wizard_
[02:16] <ubotu> wizard_: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[02:16] <wizard_> Pici: it doesn't say what to do for rhtyhm
[02:17] <Pici> wizard_: Its pretty much for everything
[02:18] <vprajan> Nalleman: mount -t nfs <ip-address>:<nfs-dir> /mnt
[02:18] <zerogrounding> oke
[02:18] <Pici> Nalleman: `sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/devicename /media/mountpoint`
[02:18] <spinster> i wanna know that file for bitchx to i set nick ircname ident user... the file is like bash.rc but i don't remember it can somebody tell me ?
[02:18] <Pici> spinster: .Bitchx I think
[02:18] <zerogrounding> hi,, any body use feisty?
[02:19] <jenda> gah, bitchx highlights my swearword trigger.
[02:19] <spinster> Pici: the file was something like bash.rc but i don't remember it
[02:19] <zerogrounding> what's special in feisty
[02:19] <cowbud> jenda: wtf do you have a swear word trigger for?
[02:19] <Kendreague> I think I've hit the problem. It only "waits for root device" when it's set to the CD. My CD drive sits in a hot-swappable bay on the side of the powerbook, and currently root is set to "/dev/cda". Should that be correct?
[02:19] <spinster> please
[02:19] <predaeus> zerogrounding, join #ubuntu+1 that is the feisty support channel, you will find more people with Feisty experience there
[02:19] <spinster> somebody knows
[02:19] <spinster> ??
[02:19] <zerogrounding> oke,,
[02:19] <spinster> the file bash.rc ?
[02:19] <jenda> cowbud: to be able to do !language for every swearword ;)
[02:19] <zerogrounding> what is the command
[02:20] <spinster> i dont remember it
[02:20] <spinster> pls!
[02:20] <zerogrounding> for predaeus
[02:20] <jenda> cowbud: in fact, it's because it easily reveals most troublemakers in a channel.
[02:20] <predaeus> zerogrounding, /join #ubuntu+1
[02:20] <Pici> spinster: Did you look to see if theres anything like ~/.Bitchx ??
[02:20] <zerogrounding> oke thanx
[02:20] <spinster> hmm
[02:20] <spinster> ok
[02:20] <spinster> i will see
[02:20] <spinster> thx
[02:20] <cowbud> thank god
[02:20] <cowbud> jesus
[02:21] <cowbud> 1k people in this channel and he feels the need to say something in four lines that would usually only take one
[02:21] <vprajan> i recently installed apache, postgresql, php5.. but there is no shortcuts under applications menu to start or stop services.. It would be good if there are some shorcuts under ubuntu menu..
[02:21] <acuster> what ports can a normal user process listen on?
[02:21] <rambo3> >1000
[02:22] <cowbud> vprajan: they should be in the services applet under administration
[02:22] <jin> when I enable desktop effects, I lost the titlebar
[02:22] <jaggz-> Thundercats, HO!!!
[02:22] <neil> Hey, I have a python daemon (SABNzbd).. how can I make it run at boot time?
[02:23] <wlkt>  any one
[02:23] <jaggz-> with some pre-prepared method, or by making your own file in /etc/init.d/ and /etc/rc?.d/  or something
[02:24] <vprajan> cowbud: kewl.. its there.. but for apache its not there ??..
[02:24] <cowbud> vprajan: web server at the bottom
[02:24] <satti> hi
[02:24] <bimberi> neil: build an initscript (/etc/init.d/skeleton provides a template) or you could add it to /etc/rc.local
[02:25] <Digitus> anyone have a gui partition program for ubuntu to recommend?
[02:25] <predaeus> jin, ask in #ubuntu+1 for Feisty related problems. probably adding    Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"    to the device section of xorf.conf helps though. But better ask in #ubuntu+1
[02:25] <kane77> how do I run a script in the time when the system starts (with root privileges)? I mean even before I log in.. (to make it run for every user) Is the network interface on when there's the login screen?
[02:25] <IdleOne> !gparted | Digitus
[02:25] <ubotu> Digitus: 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
[02:25] <wizard_> rhythm box takes a while to build a collection eh?
[02:25] <kane77> Digitus, gparted
[02:25] <Digitus> thx
[02:26] <bimberi> kane77: add it to /etc/rc.local
[02:26] <dauz> anyone here know how to wine photoshop cs2 from vista?
[02:26] <cowbud> smileboot: you should change your name to frawnboot
[02:26] <kane77> bimberi, will that be with root permissions?
[02:26] <cowbud> frown
[02:26] <cowbud> damn
[02:26] <cowbud> hah
[02:26] <dave132356> hi, can anyone please point me in the direction of how to open a terminal window with java and interact with it?
[02:26] <bimberi> kane77: yes
[02:26] <kane77> bimberi, thx
[02:26] <smileboot> cowbud i agree at the moment
[02:26] <bimberi> kane77: yw :)
[02:27] <smileboot> bloody thing refuses to install and i have no idea why
[02:27] <acuster> thanks rambo3
[02:27] <cowbud> dave132356: define interact, if you go to applications->accessories->gnome terminal you will have a terminal and you type java and there is java
[02:27] <smileboot> this is why i dont use linux   cause it hates me
[02:27] <cowbud> dave132356: actually it is just called terminal
[02:27] <hk-> !iso gk-
[02:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about iso gk- - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:27] <cowbud> smileboot: it probably just hates your hardware
[02:27] <hk-> !iso hk-
[02:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about iso hk- - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:27] <smileboot> cowbud maybe
[02:28] <smileboot> but this hardware is so old i have no idea why it aint supported
[02:28] <Pici> !iso > hk- (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:28] <Digitus> aparted just says no device found, maybe you havent logged in as root
[02:28] <IdleOne> hk-, you can use /msg ubotu iso when you want to have the bot send info to you to send info to another user you can use | sent public in channel or > sends private to user
[02:28] <Digitus> qtparted i mean
[02:29] <smileboot> if i could find somone eles who's used a dell optiplex gx115 and had no problems atleast id know it was the cd rom or the ram acting stupid
[02:29] <cowbud> smileboot: there can be a million reasons why, that's one of the risks
[02:29] <dave132356> cowbud, no i mean from a java application, i want to open a terminal and interact with it, something along the lines of System.execute("konsole")) System.execute("ls") etc?
[02:29] <cowbud> dave132356: uhh you want a java shell?
[02:30] <smileboot> if i could atleast get an error code id be sorted
[02:30] <dave132356> cowbud, i have a java program, and from this program i want to open a normal shell window, and send commands to it
[02:30] <smileboot> so again.....
[02:30] <cowbud> dave132356: uh ok that would be more of a java question not a linux question
[02:30] <cowbud> smileboot: do you have a thumb drive and can your old hardware boot to thumb drives?
[02:31] <smileboot> yes and no i dont beleive so
[02:31] <cowbud> hrmm well that makes it tough
[02:31] <smileboot> and no floppy before ya ask
[02:31] <IdleOne> smileboot, how old is the hardware?
[02:31] <cowbud> and you have no other cdrom drive? I mean burners now a days are like 30 bucks so a straight drive has gotta be almost free
[02:31] <smileboot> gx 115  which is intel mobo on board sound and vid  700mhz celeron i beleive and 192 ram
[02:31] <bdgraue> i try to mount an external hdd with ntfs-partition; i have following error:  hal-storage-removable-mount-all-options refused uid 1000
[02:32] <IdleOne> smileboot, that should install fine I have a similar machine I run ubuntu from
[02:32] <cowbud> smileboot: have you tried the non-livecd install?
[02:32] <smileboot> i know it "should"
[02:33] <smileboot> yep trying thealternative
[02:33] <cowbud> 192 megs of ram is pretty skimpy for the livecd
[02:33] <IdleOne> !alternate | smileboot
[02:33] <ubotu> smileboot: 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.
[02:33] <cowbud> smileboot: yep trying or you've tried it?
[02:33] <smileboot> tried i should say
[02:33] <inoex135> how to mount memory card ?
[02:33] <cowbud> smileboot: and it just hangs or what?
[02:33] <inoex135> msproduo
[02:33] <cowbud> inoex135: plugging it in should mount it if your reader is working correctly
[02:34] <smileboot> ok on the live versions it goes to rolling bar and just locks up (k and u)
[02:34] <smileboot> the alternative goes thru keyboard questions
[02:34] <inoex135> i got this message "[  239.215200]  tifm_7xx1: demand removing card from socket 0

[02:39] <vprajan> bdgraue: u might be using older ubuntu with readonly ntfs.
[02:39] <LadyNikon> !ntfs | bdgraue
[02:39] <devilsadvocate> !development
[02:39] <ubotu> bdgraue: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about development - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:39] <cowbud> devilsadvocate: why don't you go to the factoids page and look there
[02:39] <bdgraue> i'm on feisty
[02:39] <LadyNikon> bdgraue: that guide gives you like 3 options
[02:39] <debianuser> hi, im a c++ programmer, and i compile things a lot with gcc, lol, what would be the best journaled file system for me?
[02:39] <cowbud> or use /msg
[02:39] <devilsadvocate> vprajan, even edgy does not have ntfs write enabled by default
[02:40] <devilsadvocate> thanks cowbud
[02:40] <bdgraue> <-- feisty
[02:40] <devilsadvocate> bdgraue, #ubuntu+1
[02:40] <devilsadvocate> edgy is not older :P
[02:41] <vprajan> devilsadvocate: yeah.. correct.. just now checked..
[02:41] <vprajan> :)
[02:41] <vprajan> bdgraue: you need a long process to go.. recompiling the kernel.. :)
[02:41] <bdgraue> ? why?
[02:41] <vprajan> bdgraue: but why mount with all options ?
[02:41] <cowbud> vprajan: what are you talking about, if he has feisty he can use ntfs-3g
[02:41] <cowbud> !ntfs-3g
[02:41] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but please remember to keep backups of critical data. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[02:41] <cowbud> read that

[02:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about file system - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:42] <debianuser> hi, im a c++ programmer, and i compile things a lot with gcc, lol, what would be the best journaled file system for me?

[02:42] <vprajan> cowbud: oh.. cool..
[02:43] <smileboot> so cowbud did i stump ya :P
[02:43] <cowbud> smileboot: sometimes hardware doesn't work it looks like you tried everything I would have
[02:43] <cowbud> smileboot: except get a cheap cdrom drive
[02:43] <fhana> hi I have a weird error, I get the following error when i try to play wmv files. Totem could not play 'file:///var/www/livexxx.tv/the_site/show_in_progress.wmv'. Video codec 'MS WMV 9 (win32)' is not handled
[02:43] <rafa> heloo
[02:43] <rafa> i want to know
[02:44] <rafa> if have ubuntu for palm?
[02:44] <vprajan> cowbud: any clue how to upgrade from ubuntu edgy to ubuntu feisty beta ?..
[02:44] <vprajan> cowbud: what repos to add ?
[02:44] <tom47>  gpg key errors ... gpgkeys: key 437D05B5 not found on keyserver
[02:44] <cowbud> vprajan: change edgy to feisty in your /etc/apt/sources.list aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade
[02:44] <Priest-of-Psi> man cups has issues with me
[02:44] <devilsadvocate> rafa, there is something called familiar linux. look over at handhelds.org ( ithink)
[02:45] <smileboot> cowbud i would but thats a pain tbh   and its a samsung srive so its not as if its some offbrand pos
[02:45] <zipper> So uhm, the last couple of times i've tried installing (k)ubuntu on a pc with windowsXP already installed, it have resulted in windows not being able to boot up. Grub works fine, and windows start loading, but it fails starting up with an error about having trouble finding some file. What gives?
[02:45] <smileboot> its no liteon  but it should be good enough
[02:45] <devilsadvocate> rafa, it isnt ubuntu - and im noot sure if it works fully yert :P
[02:45] <cowbud> smileboot: when you boot does it have the boot screen?
[02:45] <tom47> i am getting GPG errors on repositoriess and
[02:46] <smileboot> howd ya mean boot screen  the one with the help and options and such?
[02:46] <aaaaasdsa> cz
[02:46] <devilsadvocate> tom47, you are missing the GPG keys. it isnt a fatal error though
[02:46] <cowbud> smileboot: when you are booting do you see a Ubuntu logo and just a progress bar and it hangs that way or do you see a bunch of text?
[02:46] <tom47> devilsadvocate how do i reset them?
[02:46] <smileboot> cowbud on the liv cd i see that yes
[02:46] <cowbud> smileboot: well I am talking about the alternative cd..
[02:46] <cowbud> smileboot: I wouldn't even try the livecd with 192megs of ram
[02:46] <devilsadvocate> tom47, you need to go to the websites fo the repos giving you the error. they will show you where the public key is. use that
[02:47] <somafm> what would the path be to a samba share on ComputerA with the folder ABC123.... is it   smb://ComputerA/ABC123   ?
[02:47] <tom47> devilsadvocate ty
[02:47] <devilsadvocate> somafm,  yes
[02:47] <Priest-of-Psi> nothing works on linux lol
[02:47] <smileboot> on the alternate cd i get the "looking for cd drive"  it runs thru the progress bar then that vansihes and then nothing
[02:47] <somafm> thnx
[02:48] <Zenerek> question, i''ve got to compile and install a new slmodem driver for kernel 2.6.15-28-686, i have the headers, module-assistant ,and i thought i needed to directly download the source so i got slmodem-2.9.11-20070204.tar.gz, when i run the massistant i can't seem to use this source and instead when i choose that option where it looks for source and other needed files it looks for another version, should i just use the version it wants?
[02:48] <zipper> Priest-of-Psi, welcome to the lovely world of being a social outcast unwilling of supporting propietery standards and monopoly
[02:48] <cowbud> smileboot: boot up and when it has the option to select the install hit e to edit the boot then go to the second line and hit e again and remove splash and quiet and then hit b to boot and see where it hangs
[02:49] <Priest-of-Psi> zipper: nah I am just saying this because my printer does not work
[02:49] <tom47> devilsadvocate its the ubuntu repositories thye give the actual key what do i do with that?
[02:49] <zipper> Priest-of-Psi, write an email to the maker of the printer and tell them to make a linux driver
[02:49] <smileboot> cowbud  on alternative?
[02:49] <cowbud> smileboot: yah
[02:49] <zipper> the more that does, the bigger the chance is they'll do it
[02:49] <smileboot> ok brb
[02:50] <zipper> Priest-of-Psi, i know its sucky help, but have no experience with printers in linux
[02:50] <Priest-of-Psi> zipper: I dont mind.... was just bickering
[02:50] <milosh_> Hi somebody here can help me about BitchX ?
[02:50] <zipper> milosh_, just ask your question instead of asking to ask
[02:50] <milosh_> Hello people, i wanna set on BitchX username ident nick can somebody tell me ?
[02:51] <milosh_> zipper: i need the folder something like bash.rc
[02:51] <milosh_> i don't remember the folder
[02:51] <milosh_> there i type export IRCSERVER=server
[02:51] <duelboot> milosh_, it's in your home folder... and it's .bashrc
[02:51] <goasc> s tu osby co mwi a nie speak'aj?
[02:51] <milosh_> ohhh
[02:51] <milosh_> yea

[02:51] <milosh_> thx dude
[02:51] <zipper> milosh_, i dont use bitchx myself

[02:51] <duelboot> yw
[02:51] <Jester626> Here is a project I am wanting to work on (read: learn). A friend and  myself want to set up some sort of tunnel between our two networks (we are both on Cable Modems), we want it so we can each access each others home network as if they were sitting in the same location.  Do I need to be googling for VPN, tunnel or what?
[02:51] <duelboot> there's also one in /root
[02:52] <zipper> Jester626, i believe you can use the application "Hamachi" on both linux and windows. Not 100% sure though, you might want to check it out
[02:52] <cowbud> Jester: hamachi makes it really easy to do that.
[02:52] <cowbud> zipper: heh
[02:52] <zipper> cowbud, hah! too fast for you :)
[02:52] <milosh_> zipper: dude look
[02:53] <Jester626> Thanks guys, knew I could come here and get pointed in the right direction, I'll check out hamachi
[02:53] <milosh_> zipper: in that file to i type export IRCNAME=NAME ? and when i open bitchx i will have quti connectiong ?
[02:53] <|sharky|> what's the best way to convert a pdf document to writeable openoffice document ?
[02:53] <cowbud> Jester: you can also setup a poptop vpn server but it is more work than hamachi
[02:53] <milosh_> zipper ?
[02:53] <zipper> milosh_, i just told you, i dont use bitchx myself. I have no idea.
[02:53] <cowbud> hrmm coffee sounds kinda good now
[02:54] <cowbud> milosh_: dude man bitchx
[02:54] <dwright> What's the deal with Feisty?
[02:54] <dwright> I got like 300 megs of updates last night
[02:54] <cowbud> I am always amazed at how people can find their way into this channel but not to a web browser to google the exact question they ask here
[02:54] <cntb> !envy
[02:54] <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
[02:55] <duelboot> cowbud, I'm amazed that people in this channel would even say what you just said
[02:55] <Pici> dwright: Its beta still, so updates are expected.
[02:55] <somafm> how do i identify a samba share via terminal,  if i were to be copying files from it?
[02:55] <ferronica> !photo printing
[02:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about photo printing - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:55] <cowbud> duelboot: really? stick around more
[02:55] <ferronica> Pici: hi
[02:55] <dwright> yeah...I actually thought it might be the official release or something
[02:55] <duelboot> cowbud, I do, but I actually like helping people rather than making snide comments
[02:56] <cowbud> duelboot: hahahha
[02:56] <Pici> ferronica: hi...
[02:56] <cowbud> duelboot: funny this is the firt time i've seen you chat in here
[02:56] <cntb> !nvidia9
[02:56] <ubotu> For Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft), you can obtain the (unsupported!) 9746 version of the binary NVidia drivers by using this repository: deb http://nvidia.limitless.lupine.me.uk/ubuntu edgy stable
[02:56] <cowbud> firt/first
[02:56] <duelboot> cowbud, most are new and don't know what to do...this is their first taste of the Ubuntu community
[02:56] <cowbud> duelboot: look spare it, I know, my point was just I would think it would be easier for people to find a browser than an irc channel which typically it is
[02:56] <duelboot> cowbud, I've been coming here off and on for over 1.5 years
[02:57] <zipper> So uhm, the last couple of times i've tried installing (k)ubuntu on a pc with windowsXP already installed, it have resulted in windows not being able to boot up. Grub works fine, and windows start loading, but it fails starting up with an error about having trouble finding some file. What gives?
[02:57] <ferronica> Pici: Do you know about Photo printing?
[02:57] <genii> cowbud Patience is a virtue :) But I do tend to agree often the answer is found easily enough
[02:57] <Pici> ferronica: Nope, I'm afraid I dont.
[02:57] <ferronica> Pici: oh lol
[02:57] <Jester626> Quick Question - It appears that Hamachi connects through a third party server to operate, is this the case?
[02:57] <hypn0> people just prefer to get anwsers from real people :-)
[02:58] <ferronica> Pici: i think you never used to print photo.
[02:58] <genii> hypn0 Theres a certain amount of validation in that
[02:58] <Priest-of-Psi> oi where is my cookie?
[02:59] <cowbud> duelboot: haha is that supposed to make sense?
[02:59] <duelboot> cowbud, as much sense as your web comment...seriously though, not really...just was saying enough
[03:00] <ferronica> !grep
[03:00] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[03:00] <cowbud> duelboot: and yet im still lost
[03:00] <neil> Hey, I have a python daemon (SABNzbd).. how can I make it run at boot time?
[03:00] <neil> I do't know where to begin
[03:00] <duelboot> cowbud, it's okay, I'm sure you'll find yourself soon enough
[03:01] <cowbud> duelboot: I hope so, maybe you could help me with that this is a help channel after all
[03:01] <somafm> how do you copy files from a windows share to a ubuntu folder via console?
[03:01] <zipper> Jester626, yes, that is true
[03:01] <duelboot> okay, cowbud where's the last place you knew you were?
[03:01] <cowbud> duelboot: how do I check that?
[03:01] <duelboot> btw, cowbud that was great...I'm still laughing
[03:01] <cowbud> duelboot: im laughing myself hehehe
[03:02] <zipper> Jester626, i believe that is only for the initial connection between the peers though. The data between the clients doesnt have to go through the server first.
[03:02] <duelboot> pwd cowbud and you'll find where you are
[03:02] <Gandalf> hi, i am using the latest livecd beta and can only get 800x600 even though i told it 1240x1024 on the boot screen
[03:02] <Jester626> OK, not really what I was wanting, I'm looking for something that does not go through a third party
[03:02] <Zenerek> er guys, i'm on dapper, have 2.6.15-28-686 (using 2.6.15-23-686 because the slmodem drivers will only work on this version) need compile and install new version to use on the new kernel,shoul i use the source the module assitant wants or slmodem-2.9.11-20070204.tar.gz
[03:02] <ferronica> Pici: ubuntu 6.10 not showing me my window HDD
[03:02] <SpaceBass> Gandalf, live cd of what?
[03:02] <cowbud> neil: you can add it to /etc/rc.local what is the daemon for?
[03:02] <SpaceBass> which version
[03:02] <zipper> Jester626, as i said, i believe the server is only used to setup the connection between the clients. After that, the server is not used for anything (well, except for keeping the connection between clients alive)
[03:03] <ferronica> Pici: but in ubuntu 6.06 it showing
[03:03] <Gandalf> this has been a consistent problem for me since the first time
[03:03] <ferronica> Pici: what i do?
[03:03] <Gandalf> feisty or whatever it is
[03:04] <zipper> Jester626, hamachi really is the easiest way to do it, but if you really do not want to use their server for anything at all (couldn't find a reason why not, but you tell me), you probably have to look into some vpn setup
[03:04] <cowbud> Jester626: you can use pptpd but as zipper says hamachi really is the easiest way, especially when firewalls are involved
[03:04] <Engnome> hmm
[03:05] <Spliffster> Zenerek: if you only need  to recompile a module and there is a source package in the repo for it .. .yes install the source package and use module-assistant to compile it (or fetch the source via modue-assistant)
[03:05] <Engnome> xchat has been dumbed down since I used it last time :(
[03:05] <cntb> lupine ?
[03:05] <Engnome> crap
[03:05] <Engnome> bye
[03:05] <duelboot> later cowbud...nice to talk to you, and nice to see you helping others
[03:05] <Jester626> I don't like relying on a third party, for instance 2 years from now the ppl at Hamachi could get greedy and start charging for the service, then I am jumping through hoops to find an alternative
[03:05] <cowbud> duelboot: have a good day ;)
[03:05] <RoundyT1> does ubuntu come with a Remote Desktop Client?
[03:05] <duelboot> cowbud, you too
[03:05] <cowbud> I shall
[03:05] <Muiske> Yes
[03:06] <Spliffster> RoundyT1: yes
[03:06] <RoundyT1> which?
[03:06] <ardchoille> RoundyT1: tsclient
[03:06] <RoundyT1> or what's it calle
[03:06] <RoundyT1> d
[03:06] <sskk> Jester625: When using Hamachi, your data will not via the hamachi servers. The hamachi servers just handle the key exchanges etc.
[03:06] <RoundyT1> terminal server client?
[03:06] <Spliffster> RoundyT1: there is vncserver AFAIK it's installed by default but not started
[03:06] <zipper> Jester626, well, is it going to be used professionally where you simply cannot have any downtime? If not, i'd say go for hamachi till then.
[03:06] <Gandalf> i am running an emachines w3052 with sempron 3000+ @ 2GHz, nividia geforce 4 mx with 64mb, 17" monitor and 512mb ram
[03:06] <zipper> sskk, i've told him that already
[03:06] <Jester626> true
[03:06] <Jester626> I'll look arounda bit more, thanks for the help
[03:06] <cowbud> Gandalf: have you submitted a bug?
[03:06] <zipper> Jester626, by then, you can always switch to vpn
[03:06] <zipper> np
[03:06] <Spliffster> RoundyT1: check System > administration > Remote Desktop
[03:07] <sskk> zipper: sorry - that msg must have gone missing in Cowbud and dualboots friendly chat ;)
[03:07] <cowbud> sskk: :)
[03:07] <cowbud> that is what /lastlog is good for
[03:07] <Gandalf> yes i have, on several occasions, but never get a reply
[03:07] <zipper> sskk, hehe, nothing to be sorry about... a lot gets missing with all the spamming going on inhere :)
[03:07] <bimberi> RoundyT1: tsclient (multiprotocol)
[03:08] <cowbud> Gandalf: what bug number?
[03:08] <RoundyT1> thanks
[03:08] <RoundyT1> need it to do some server work :-F
[03:08] <Gandalf> i submitted it through the automated system on the last hard drive install...
[03:09] <zipper> So uhm, the last couple of times i've tried installing (k)ubuntu on a pc with windowsXP already installed, it have resulted in windows not being able to boot up. Grub works fine, and windows start loading, but it fails starting up with an error about having trouble finding some file. What gives? Could it have anything to do with me using MSDN's winXP with SP2?
[03:09] <Zenerek> Spliffster i did not get the package from the repo's i got it from http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/smartlink/ , should i use the repo package that the massistant wants to download?
[03:09] <Gandalf> i don't have a specific number
[03:09] <Spliffster> RoundyT1: hint of the day: if you have a vnc server running somewhere you do not need special client software ... just point your browser to http://servername:5900
[03:09] <RoundyT1> ok
[03:09] <RoundyT1> thanks
[03:10] <Spliffster> Zenerek: wih debian kernels you should always use what the repo provides. debian as a highly customised/patched/hacked kernel and so are the source packages (to fit the kernel)
[03:10] <Gandalf> is there another way that it should be done?
[03:10] <devilsadvocate> is there any place where the packages installed on a fresh ubuntu install are listed?
[03:10] <Troy> From the command line, how can I tell if a package is already installed?
[03:10] <cowbud> Gandalf: well if you have no way of watching the bug you submitted then how do you know you didn't get a response? it should be linked to your email. A way to submit another bug would be bugs.ubuntu.com and fill in as much info as possible
[03:11] <Gandalf> I use pclinuxos now and am happy with it, but if I could get more than 800x600 i would really like to check ubuntu
[03:11] <bimberi> Troy: apt-cache policy package
[03:11] <Gandalf> 800x600 is unusable
[03:11] <Spliffster> Gandalf: what's your videocard and what is your monito capable of ? have you tried the ubuntu live CD ?
[03:12] <cowbud> Gandalf: well you could submit a bug and your current xorg.conf that is working with pclinuxos
[03:12] <Gandalf> i'm on it right now... my monitor is by emachines and is not the issue
[03:13] <Gandalf> video is onboard nvidia geforce 4 mx with 64mb
[03:13] <Spliffster> yayyyyy "C&C Tiberium wars[tm] " installed ... cu folks!
[03:13] <zipper> :)
[03:14] <zipper> So uhm, the last couple of times i've tried installing (k)ubuntu on a pc with windowsXP already installed, it have resulted in windows not being able to boot up. Grub works fine, and windows start loading, but it fails starting up with an error about having trouble finding some file. What gives? Could it have anything to do with me using MSDN's winXP with SP2, or me having windows installed on something else than C:?
[03:14] <bimberi> devilsadvocate: the cd file listing for the alternate cd gives an idea - but isn't perfect (some packages aren't installed by default) - for example http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06.1/ubuntu-6.06.1-alternate-i386.list
[03:14] <Gandalf> cowbud: that's bugs.ubuntu.com and i will send the working xorg.conf as an attachment...
[03:15] <bimberi> devilsadvocate: look for .deb  files
[03:15] <mariuu> fluxbuntu
[03:15] <cowbud> Gandalf: that would be awesome
[03:15] <cowbud> !
[03:15] <lorsche> what will happen if i remove entries for stylus,eraser,cursor from xorg.conf in a desktop?
[03:15] <Gandalf> back later
[03:15] <JosefK> anyone running Edgy with dual head on a Dimension 9200?
[03:16] <freezey> my sql database is periodically going down... its not leaving anything in the logs either... i will restart the database and then i am not sure 20 minutes 30 minutes later i will check my website and its down and restarting the database is the onlyh thing that works... anybody got a solution?
[03:20] <dcordes> How can i determine the distribution's name?
[03:20] <dcordes> with the console
[03:20] <ttheikkila> uname I guess
[03:20] <bimberi> !version
[03:20] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[03:21] <Zenerek> Spliffster ok, thanks then, by the way i have another system , with a raid card, fasttrak tx2000, i had asked before on here for help and i was told to look for a driver which i found on the live cd, anyway that should mean that it should have worked but the drives (two of them) were detected seprtate, raid is supposed to be seen a uniform value of total drive space,is it different in ubuntu or was the raid card not detected?
[03:21] <bulmer> freezey: which database engine do you? does it have ability to use syslog or syslog-ng?
[03:21] <rambo3> dcordes, cat /etc/version
[03:21] <jenda> bimberi: cool, didn't know that :)
[03:21] <ardchoille> dcordes: llsb_release -a | grep Distributor
[03:21] <freuen> how could I install the ATI 1650 video card
[03:21] <jenda> bimberi: and incidentally, hello, how's life an' all that ;)
[03:21] <rambo3> dcordes, cat /etc/debian_version

[03:29] <zipper> pluma, if you want a WYSIWYG editor, try looking under "education" in adept
[03:29] <Pici> freezey: oh. Well if you have all your php files in one directory you could do `grep pconnect *`

[03:37] <ubotu> davenick: 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

[03:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a bot... - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:45] <genii> devilsadvocate: nano is not default afaik
[03:45] <nazo029A> lol
[03:45] <arch_> is there a shortcut to open a terminal window in Gnome?
[03:45] <genii> vi is almost standard everywhere since vipw and visudo use it for instance
[03:46] <infoclog> how can i install apache web server using Synaptic package manager ?
[03:46] <Zenerek> Dimensions i think the fileroller allows you to create password protected files, not sure what type rar and zip maybe, i use some windows apps with wine for that though
[03:46] <gnomefreak> vi uses vim
[03:47] <Priest-of-Psi> vim == vi Improved
[03:47] <JosefK> daedra, :/ check the corresponding /etc/rc.*
[03:47] <JosefK> !runlevel
[03:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about runlevel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:47] <infoclog> anyone have an idea about installing apache webserver
[03:47] <infoclog> through synaptics package manager
[03:47] <Dimensions> ummmz Zenerek file roller u mean what by that ?
[03:48] <zipper> infoclog, i bet the comprehensive guide at ubuntu wiki does
[03:48] <infoclog> why doesnt apt-get install apache work ?
[03:48] <aleksanteri> infoclog: use xampp, much easier
[03:48] <infoclog> aleksanteri: why not Synaptics package manager
[03:48] <JosefK> infoclog, these days you'd probably want apache2
[03:48] <zipper> apache2 is wierd =S
[03:48] <infoclog> JosefK: WHATEVER...but whats the package name in Synaptics ?
[03:48] <nazo029A> http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html
[03:48] <zipper> at least when you're used to apache
[03:48] <aleksanteri> infoclog: i don't think i have seen XAMPP on synaptics :P
[03:49] <nazo029A> it installs apache, php etc in one nice folder
[03:49] <JosefK> infoclog: apache or apache2
[03:49] <Zenerek> arch go to the system menu preferences  then click on keyboard, that is where you can set keyboard shortcuts
[03:49] <zipper> infoclog, why do you refuse to read a guide?
[03:49] <zipper> infoclog, all your questions are answered in it
[03:49] <Zenerek> Dimensions fileroller is an app
[03:49] <nazo029A> its comes as a .gz.tgz just uncompress it out to /somewhere and ull be good
[03:49] <infoclog> zipper: what guide ?
[03:49] <zipper> infoclog, search ubuntu wiki for "apache"
[03:50] <aleksanteri> nazo029A: it's not /somewhere. iirc it must be /opt/lampp/* :P
[03:50] <matthew_> I get this error when I try to burn a data dvd with k3b... :( write failed: Input/ouput error  What do I need to do to fix this?
[03:50] <Priest-of-Psi> man gnome just irritates me
[03:50] <JosefK> infoclog: if you want a LAMP (linux+apache+mysql+php) setup, install the 'ubuntu-lamp' metapackage
[03:50] <nazo029A> ah k lol sorry
[03:50] <JosefK> !lamp | infoclog
[03:50] <ubotu> infoclog: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[03:50] <matthew_> I'm using Ubuntu 6.10
[03:50] <mariuu> does somebody know a command that displays my motherboard manufacturer and my motherboard model?
[03:50] <nazo029A> Yeah mines in /opt too, shouldve been more specific :( sorry
[03:51] <slavik> what package do I need to be able to connect to my system through a web browser?
[03:51] <Livedifferent> Is anyone here willing to give me some help regarding installation?
[03:51] <slavik> to my system's vnc ...
[03:51] <gordonjcp> slavik: "connect to"?
[03:51] <gordonjcp> slavik: ah, doesn't VNC have a java applet?
[03:52] <slavik> What if the windows computer doesn'
[03:52] <slavik> tdoesn't have the applet?
[03:52] <JosefK> slavik, then you're SOL
[03:52] <shazzr> hmm....it seemes that X won't start with the nvidia driver....but if I change to the nv driver, then it works!
[03:52] <Priest-of-Psi> damn my home folder is pretty big
[03:52] <slavik> I see
[03:52] <Livedifferent> If I don't have a working optical drive, how would I best install Ubuntu?
[03:52] <slavik> is there anything that would allow me to use the windows' remote desktop utility?
[03:53] <slavik> Livedifferent: use the hdd in another system that has a working optical drive
[03:53] <JosefK> slavik, no, but you could easily install http://www.tightvnc.com/ on the windows box
[03:53] <skaller> ubuntu 6.10, open office isn't working for me, any clues?
[03:53] <slavik> JosefK: the point is not to install anything on windows
[03:53] <JosefK> slavik, ah, I should read up
[03:53] <Livedifferent> Slavik: I don't understand what you mean.
[03:53] <infoclog> JosefK: i am not sure if ubuntu and kubuntu is the same
[03:53] <tester> hi :)
[03:53] <JosefK> slavik, you could just grab the zip package for TightVNC and run it from a folder
[03:53] <JosefK> infoclog: they are
[03:54] <xeQter> sup
[03:54] <Psy-X> hi
[03:54] <infoclog> JosefK: i tried looking for ubuntu-lamp in synaptics
[03:54] <infoclog> and no result
[03:54] <slavik> Livedifferent: I want to remote to my linux box from a windows box on which I cannot install anything or run anything (besides a browser and the remote desktop utility)
[03:54] <Panzer_> ssh
[03:55] <genii> Livedifferent: If it has an ethernet card and you have a second machine around you can do a way with apt-cache, netboot PXE install
[03:55] <Panzer_> and you put Putty on the doze box
[03:55] <Gandalf> cowbud: i submitted the bug report with my working xorg.conf just now.  hope that helps
[03:55] <JosefK> Panzer_: if he can't put the zip archive of TightVNC on the windows box, he's hardly going to be able to use ssh :(
[03:55] <Livedifferent> genii: And how would I go about doing that? Somewhat noobish here trying to wet my feet :3
[03:55] <Gandalf> got email to check...
[03:55] <Gandalf> laterzzz
[03:55] <tester> how can i change autostart options ? I cant log in on my main-account,because there is something wrong with beryl. I tested with 'sudo adduser' and it worked. I started beryl and i had the same prob. when i want to log in as main user.
[03:55] <Panzer_> oh I did not read that part
[03:56] <Zenerek> i have another system i want to install dapper on with a raid card, fasttrak tx2000, i had asked before on here for help and i was told to look for a driver which i found on the live cd, anyway that should mean that it should have worked but the drives (two of them) were detected seprtate, raid is supposed to be seen a uniform value of total drive space,is it different in ubuntu or was the raid card not detected?
[03:56] <PeterPan^> is there a way to make a live cd of my 'installed linux' ?
[03:56] <genii> Livedifferent: The other machine needs to use some linux too. I will find a good howto for you
[03:56] <Livedifferent> Ahh
[03:56] <slavik> oh well then ...
[03:56] <JosefK> Livedifferent, you could also do the PXE boot if you have a windows server box lying around
[03:56] <Andeh> Hello
[03:56] <slavik> anyone here ever heard of dameware?
[03:56] <Livedifferent> I have an OS X box trying to install it onto a windows laptop.
[03:57] <Andeh> Is it supposed to be that you can only run one OpenOffice app at a time?
[03:57] <genii> Livedifferent: http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install   has the basic method
[03:57] <Livedifferent> THank you!
[03:57] <assasukasse> i have problems connectiong to vnc tru ssh, i load vnc as a xorg module, i used the "localhost" option to accept only local connections, then i ssh -L 5901:target:5900 user@target and try to connect tru xvncviewer but i only see a windows with 3 boxes, options about the clipboard
[03:57] <Andeh> EG i am running Writer and i wanted to open Impress it doesnt do anything.
[03:57] <dukebody> is it neccessary to sign or fully trust a gpg key to send encripted mail to his propietary? kmail doesn't allow me selecting a public key for encrypting if it's not signed or fully trusted.
[03:57] <Puaff> please, I need xlib.h installed. Is xlibs-dev the package I need? I get confused by the word "transactional" of the description of the package
[03:58] <skaller> andeh you're lucky i can't get any Open Office progs to work
[03:58] <|sharky|> what's the best way to convert a pdf document to writeable openoffice document ?
[03:58] <Andeh> skaller: lol
[03:58] <skaller> worked fine on breezy but the last upgrade crashed Evolution
[03:59] <skaller> upgraded, evolution works, and now OO doesn't :)
[03:59] <Shane-S> how long should Ubunut take with a WEP encrypted wireless network?
[03:59] <Andeh> I mean its great and all and if i had more disk space left (LOL 500 MB) i would install Microsoft Office on wine because my school is windows obsessed.
[03:59] <Andeh> I saw these cool 3d shapes you can put in impress and i wanted to try and it wouldnt open if im running Writer...
[03:59] <Shane-S> takes it like 2 minutes to "activate"
[03:59] <matthew_> Can anyone help me with a k3b burning problem?
[04:00] <Shane-S> grr, and it won't obtain an IP
[04:00] <Shane-S> its sees my wireless network
[04:01] <genii> Shane-S: 2 minutes is about 105 seconds longer than it should dtake
[04:01] <Andeh> So there is nothing i can do to get different OpenOffice programs to run at the same time...
[04:01] <Shane-S> I even disbaled IP 6 as well thinking that was the problem http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6841.html
[04:01] <Andeh> That sucks...
[04:01] <Shane-S> cause I had that issue on a desktop I setup with ubuntu
[04:01] <skaller> Andeh, it should work
[04:02] <Shane-S> receiving bytes and packets as well, just not sending them
[04:02] <Nookie^> hi! is there any way to install ubuntu like debian installation without starting X?
[04:02] <Shane-S> without an IP I have no clue how
[04:03] <toferrado> Hello... start sound are not working on ubuntu. How can I fix it?
[04:03] <Andeh> skaller: have you tried? I just click and nothing happens, no disk activity either.
[04:03] <Andeh> Probably use some kind of main engine for all the apps and only one can use it at a time
[04:03] <Andeh> *sulk*
[04:03] <Puaff> does anyone know if libx11-dev contains xlib.h?
[04:03] <Shane-S> Nookie^ I know the server version doesn't use the GUI, have your tried the boot options, think it is like f6
[04:03] <numan> help help help
[04:03] <skaller> well .. as i said I can't even get ONE OO app to start
[04:03] <Nookie^> Shane-S: hmm wait i will see
[04:03] <skaller> i'll try on my other box
[04:03] <numan> i am stuck with ubuntu installation
[04:04] <rausb0> !repositories
[04:04] <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
[04:04] <Nookie^> Shane-S: no such options
[04:04] <rausb0> !EasySource
[04:04] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:04] <Nookie^> i dont know what to write to boot options
[04:04] <sz> i have an hp nc2400 laptop running feisty. i've got it hooked to a docking station and the network and power works, but mouse/keyboard/monitor don't.  any thoughts?
[04:05] <Shane-S> Nookie^ I have never done it without the GUI, less the server version
[04:05] <Nookie^> =(
[04:05] <Shane-S> why isnt the GUI doable?
[04:05] <Puaff> I can confirm, libx11-dev contains xlib.h, thx :)
[04:05] <Shane-S> because if you NEVER want the GUI use the server version
[04:06] <miyako> elkbuntu: ok, is this a more appropriate place to discuss the issue?
[04:06] <Shane-S> I installed the server on a Dell 860 server 3 months ago with a single hickup, server works great with a virtual SAS/SATA Raid 1
[04:06] <Nookie^> Shane-S: i know about server... my something is messed up with my cd-rom i think... takes 1 hour before it loads the x
[04:06] <elkbuntu> miyako, no, i just wanted to know if you *could* join here
[04:07] <skaller> Andeh, on my OLD Ubuntu i have OO writer an impress both open at once no problem
[04:07] <Shane-S> Nookie^...hmmm, I had that problem too, have you tried burning the CD at a lower speed, I presume the drive is older
[04:08] <skaller> that's ubuntu 5.10, amd64, open office 2
[04:09] <Nookie^> Shane-S: hmm no i havent tryied that
[04:09] <Nookie^> i can try

[04:09] <Puppy_> Does anyone have an easy way to improve my screen resolution?
[04:09] <Shane-S> can anyone help me try and get my wireless card working, the system sees it as ath0, it lists my wireless network in the "Network settings" configure option and is set to DHCP
[04:10] <Shane-S> Nookie^: unless you have other drives laying around, it the only other option I can think of to try
[04:10] <Shane-S> burn it at the lowest speed you can
[04:10] <Nookie^> Shane-S: iwconfig
[04:10] <ravi_master> will a linksys pcmia card work out of box with Ubuntu?
[04:10] <Nookie^> Shane-S: then dhclient eth0 or whatever
[04:10] <SlimeyPete> Puppy_: if you can't do it via the graphical display-settings thingummywidget, then you can edit /etc/xorg.conf to do it (it's usually not hard to do)
[04:10] <ravi_master> if not, what packages should I install?
[04:10] <Nookie^> Shane-S; try that
[04:10] <numan> anybody plz help
[04:10] <SlimeyPete> Puppy_: sorry, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:10] <Shane-S> I had an old emachines celron 400 that I had that problem with, and swapping drives didn't help, but the lower speed did
[04:10] <SlimeyPete> numan: what's the problem?
[04:11] <numan> i am stuck with ubuntu installation
[04:11] <Puppy_> SlimeyPete, can I PM you with a question?
[04:11] <SlimeyPete> Puppy_: yes, if you like.
[04:11] <numan> i tried to find help online but cant get enough

[04:16] <SlimeyPete> bartoslaff: how do you mean? YOu should be able to use apt-get, dpkg or make to install software.
[04:16] <Stormx2> bartoslaff: "sudo aptitude install packagename" <-- without quotes.
[04:16] <Nookie^> Shane-S: installed*
[04:16] <numan> yes i perform cd integrity check in ubuntu installation options'
[04:16] <Shane-S> no, just the defaults, fresh install this morning
[04:17] <Shane-S> all I did was disable IPv6
[04:17] <Shane-S> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6841.html
[04:17] <Shane-S> loading Synaptic now
[04:17] <genii> numan That you hear the music etc indicates the install has succeeded. So then what remains is why is the video not going to the screen? If you have 2 video cards and you are not using the one, either yank it out or disable it in bios (if onboard type)
[04:17] <Shane-S> wait
[04:17] <Shane-S> LOL
[04:17] <Shane-S> I can't no internet ROFL
[04:17] <Stormx2> Shane-S: it's not that funny. Please don't use newline as punctuation.
[04:18] <bartoslaff> can u give me your repo? with all sources?
[04:18] <Zenerek> numan the question is wither you do have two display devices or not

[04:19] <Andeh> ANd can i use VLC Inside firefox to play stuff, how would i do that?
[04:20] <Jamastasha> shit
[04:20] <Andeh> ?
[04:20] <Jamastasha> cholernie skomplikowany ten IRC
[04:20] <Stormx2> Don't swear. The channel is: #ubuntu-pl
[04:20] <Jamastasha> :D
[04:20] <Stormx2> This channel is english only xD
[04:20] <kuma> hi, i compiled an application from its source, where can i find it's executable?
[04:20] <Jamastasha> ok
[04:20] <Shane-S> what is Network-Manager? I have Networking and Network Tools under System>Admin..>
[04:20] <Stormx2> kuma: Have you run "make" and "sudo make install", yes?
[04:20] <Nookie^> Shane-S: do this in console
[04:20] <kuma> Stormx2: i ran install and then make
[04:21] <Nookie^> Shane-S: sudo apt-get install gnome-network-manager
[04:21] <Andeh> IS it possible to run VLC to play movies INSIDE firefox, otherwise, how would i get firefox to NOT tell me "(no video)"?
[04:21] <Nookie^> Shane-S: i think the name was that or just network-manager
[04:21] <Stormx2> kuma: Hmm. have you followed the INSTALL or README file?
[04:21] <Shane-S> presume it is on the CD?
[04:21] <kuma> Stormx2: sorry, i meant,i ran ./configure and then make
[04:21] <Stormx2> Andeh: I don't think so. Ask in #videolan ?
[04:21] <Andeh> k
[04:21] <Tomcat_> Andeh: There's a firefox plugin for vlc I think.
[04:21] <Nookie^> Shane-S: good question do not know if its on cd
[04:21] <xopey> Shane-S: i use it primarily for wireless authentication and such
[04:21] <Stormx2> kuma: okay. Now run "sudo make install"
[04:22] <Tomcat_> Andeh: But there's also mplayer-mozilla and totem-firefox-plugin
[04:22] <Andeh> Ok
[04:22] <Andeh> Thanks
[04:22] <Andeh> Well neither of those work
[04:22] <Andeh> For anything i try to view at least
[04:22] <Tomcat_> Andeh: I have no problem with mplayer... not at all.
[04:22] <Andeh> they give me something like NO VIDEO
[04:22] <kuma> Stormx2: yes i've followed the readme, actually i can run it from bash, but i need to know where's it's excutable because another program needs it as parameter
[04:22] <ravi_master> will a linksys pcmia card work out of box with Ubuntu?
[04:22] <Andeh> Causen nearly every video says no video
[04:22] <Andeh> Cause*
[04:22] <xopey> can you find out what chipset is on the card ravi_master ?
[04:22] <Shane-S> can't get it
[04:23] <Shane-S> this notebook only has a wireless connection PMCIA card
[04:23] <ravi_master> xopey: this is a freind's laptop I am trying to convert, don't have him or the laptop in reach.
[04:23] <Andeh> ...?
[04:23] <Zenerek> andeth i don't know about vlc but i thnik there was a plugin that allowed firefox to see video through mplayer
[04:23] <ravi_master> xopey: can you just give me a general list of packages that will fit what I need?
[04:23] <Shane-S> stupid thing has a Cat5 port in the back, with the metal pins/wires but it has no circuit connection!
[04:24] <Andeh> Well i do have a plugin that can play the video externally but thats not much use
[04:24] <Andeh> Cause i solved THAT problem, i just need to get it to play inside
[04:24] <ikonia> ravi_master: whats the question
[04:24] <Shane-S> im going to try setting a static address and see if that works
[04:24] <Andeh> OK
[04:24] <Andeh> VLC is in my FF plugins list
[04:24] <Andeh> Now how do i disable all the others or delete their plugin files in the FF folder? Where is that
[04:25] <ravi_master> ikonia: I am trying to convert a friend to Ubuntu, he has a linksys PCMCIA card, is there a general list of deb packages that I can take with me that will enable that card to function after I install ubuntu?
[04:25] <Zenerek> i did not mean  externally, i mean you can see the video using mplayer's....program but inside firefox
[04:25] <ikonia> ravi_master: no as it depends on the type of card it is and how supported it is
[04:25] <Zenerek> at least i think
[04:25] <ikonia> ravi_master: also - don't try to convert people - pushing them is just pointless
[04:25] <ikonia> ravi_master: check on its support
[04:26] <ravi_master> ikonia: no, he is sick and tired of windows
[04:26] <ravi_master> ikonia: he has a mac at home but wants have the same stability on his laptop
[04:26] <ikonia> ravi_master: great - let him install ubuntu then
[04:26] <ikonia> ravi_master: so what version of ubuntu are you recommended ?
[04:26] <ikonia> recommending
[04:26] <ikonia> 6.06 I hope
[04:26] <ravi_master> ikonia: yeah
[04:26] <Andeh> Excellent. Wonderful. Thanks for helping. Now what folder are the plugin files stored? I mean the little config files in a firefox folder.  Where is it?
[04:26] <ikonia> ravi_master: then check the support for that card in 6.06 or let him download the livecd and test it
[04:27] <Andeh> I just need to make VLC the default. I like it more anyway
[04:27] <ravi_master> ikonia: ok, will do but what drivers included in that version, linkage to list of devices?
[04:27] <ikonia> ravi_master: what ?
[04:27] <ikonia> what drivers are included in that version ??
[04:28] <ravi_master> ikonia: where are the list of supported cards out of the box for Ubuntu 6.06
[04:28] <ravi_master> ikonia: yes
[04:28] <Pici> !hardware
[04:28] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[04:28] <kuma> hi, i compiled an application from its source and i can run it from console, where can i find it's executable?
[04:28] <ikonia> ravi_master: I guess that would be the hcl on the ubuntu.com website, and its not devices - its chipsets really
[04:29] <Andeh> Can anyone tell me how to make VLC the default for playing movies in FF?
[04:29] <Andeh> I also wonder why ubuntu does such a stupid thing as to make players incapable of playing .mpg or whatever the defaults for doing so.
[04:29] <ikonia> Andeh: it doesn't
[04:29] <ikonia> Andeh: my players play all formats
[04:29] <Andeh> Mine sure does. Now how do i get firefox to use VLC as the default in-browser player?
[04:29] <Zenerek> Andeh /usr/lib/firefox/plugins that is where the plugins are
[04:29] <Andeh> Ok thanks
[04:29] <ikonia> Andeh: instead of calling ubuntu "supid" learn how to configure things
[04:29] <Andeh> Wonderful.
[04:29] <ikonia> Andeh: then you won't look like the stupid one
[04:30] <Andeh> *silence*
[04:30] <kuma> hi, i compiled an application from its source and i can run it from console, where can i find it's executable?
[04:31] <ikonia> kuma: you should know where you installed it if you built it
[04:31] <ravi_master> ikonia: btw, this guy has a crappy i810-driver-supported card, will it be able to run Beryl/Compiz/XGL/AIGLX and which combination do you suggest?
[04:31] <jrib> kuma: how do you run it from the console?
[04:31] <tulio__> !xgl
[04:31] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[04:31] <ikonia> ravi_master: probably not
[04:31] <tulio__> !compiz
[04:31] <kuma> jrib: i type the name of the application
[04:31] <kuma> ikonia: I used the make install
[04:31] <ravi_master> ikonia: I heard differently from crdlb about the specific card, which combination of the 2 set of elements do you suggest for a low-end box?
[04:31] <ikonia> kuma: but you must have configured it
[04:32] <jrib> kuma: which the_name_of_the_application     will tell you
[04:32] <Eric__> can you help me with my wvdial?
[04:32] <ikonia> ravi_master: I suggest not using beryl  or compiz on a low end box
[04:32] <kuma> ikonia: ./configure ^^U
[04:32] <ikonia> kuma: its probably /usr/local/bin then
[04:32] <ravi_master> ikonia: backed by what? XGL or AIGLX?
[04:32] <ikonia> ravi_master: neither
[04:32] <ikonia> ravi_master: xorg
[04:32] <Pici> kuma: Check the README or INSTALL file, this really depends on what source you're building,  theres really not a generic answer.
[04:32] <ikonia> ravi_master: also xgl and the like isn't available for 6.06
[04:33] <ravi_master> ikonia: holy crap, so you're just going to throw it all on that PC?
[04:33] <ikonia> ravi_master: pardon ?
[04:33] <kuma> ok Pici, ikonia, jrib thanks for your help
[04:33] <ikonia> ravi_master: throw all what on that pc ?
[04:33] <tulio__> does anyone here use xgl+compiz and play videos with no problem?
[04:33] <Trek^> my wvdial wouldn't connect me anymore?what happen?
[04:33] <ikonia> ravi_master: I'm saying don't install xgl/beryl/compiz - anyhting
[04:33] <ravi_master> ikonia: processing all the graphics will be thrown at the PC if I do what you suggest
[04:33] <Zenerek> andeth how good is vlc, i ask cause mplayer would hang when i put a dvd in and totem and ...xine was it? did not have dvd menus capability
[04:33] <ikonia> ravi_master: explain ?
[04:33] <davenick> hi, how do i keep the window open rather than having it close automatically when i type "gnome-terminal -x ls" ?
[04:34] <ravi_master> ikonia: default Xorg is not hardware accelerated by intel drivers is it?
[04:34] <Andeh> OK, i deleted all the plugins (moved them to a folder) except for VLCplugin and thats now the default for playing MPGs but its still NO VIDEO. Any suggestions?
[04:34] <bu2> How do I give my web server  write permission on the file system?
[04:34] <ikonia> ravi_master: no beause the i810 isn't hardware accelerated chipset
[04:34] <TooR4u> How to close the opened ports?
[04:34] <ikonia> ravi_master: it will work fine
[04:34] <ravi_master> ikonia: ok
[04:34] <TooR4u> Unwanted ports
[04:34] <TooR4u> >
[04:34] <TooR4u> ?
[04:34] <ikonia> ravi_master: as long as you don't want to use beryl/compiz etc etc etc
[04:34] <jrib> bu2: your webserver runs as www-data, give that user (or group) permissions
[04:34] <Pici> !firewall | TooR4u
[04:34] <ubotu> TooR4u: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:35] <ravi_master> ikonia: ok
[04:35] <TooR4u> Pici, with out using iptables is it possible to modify the ports?
[04:36] <kuma> ikonia: it isn't in usr/local/bin, any other ideas? =/
[04:36] <Trek^> wvdial anyone?
[04:36] <Pici> TooR4u: If you're talking about network ports... I dont know of another way, besisdes a firewall type solution.
[04:36] <AlbertoP> hello
[04:36] <TooR4u> okey
[04:36] <Zenerek> andeth search for the ubuntu wiki, there you will learn how to get dvd,mp3 flash and even midi working
[04:36] <Andeh> Anyone?"
[04:36] <bu2> thanks jrib. Could you show me a command that would do that? I get it in theory but I am not totally sure
[04:36] <michaelscofield> hello
[04:36] <Andeh> Heres my ABOUT:PLUGINS page
[04:36] <Andeh> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14026/
[04:36] <numan> i cant install ubuntu desktop 6.10
[04:36] <michaelscofield> this is a english channel?
[04:37] <SlimeyPete> michaelscofield: yes
[04:37] <Andeh> AFAIK it should play all those with VLC
[04:37] <michaelscofield> doh Im italian
[04:37] <Andeh> And even before i installed VLC it said "NO VIDEO" for nearly everything
[04:37] <daveletourneau> Hello. Can someone help me with a simple script launching problem at startup? nothing too complicated I think. Thanks
[04:37] <numan> anybody plz explain
[04:38] <zipper> daveletourneau, just ask your question isntead of asking to ask
[04:38] <Zenerek> andeth i was playing dvd's in toem, heck i saw casino royal the other day
[04:38] <ikonia> Andeh: read the ubuntu wiki on how to enable codeds
[04:38] <numan> how to get ubuntu working?
[04:38] <ikonia> Zenerek: he doesn't listen just calls ubuntu "stupid"
[04:38] <SlimeyPete> numan: what exactly is happening? Is it crashing?
[04:38] <zipper> numan, you need to be a bit more precise than that
[04:38] <jrib> bu2: for example, if you have a some wiki data in /var/www/mywiki, you would recursively give user and group ownership of the file to www-data by doing:  sudo chown -R www-data: /var/www/mywiki    .  It is very important that you don't do this to random files on your system.  Stuff like a wiki is ok.  Stuff outside /var/www is probably not ok unless you know what you are doing.
[04:38] <kuma> how can i access to the /usr/bin/ directory? i try with cd and i get a 404 response?
[04:38] <rambo3> what?
[04:38] <ikonia> kuma: 404 is a web page - not a directory
[04:38] <Andeh> ikonia: You mean they're all there but ubuntu disables them for open source reasons? :O
[04:38] <zipper> kuma, what?!
[04:38] <ikonia> Andeh: READ
[04:38] <gils> any input yet on kernel slow boot up times?
[04:39] <Pici> kuma: Where are you trying to do cd /usr/bin/ ?
[04:39] <kuma> lol, i meant i get a not found error
[04:39] <rambo3> kuma re you frowsing in firefox? file://
[04:39] <ikonia> kuma: ls -la /usr/local/bin
[04:39] <tulio__> does anyone here use xgl+compiz and play videos with no problem?
[04:39] <ikonia> tulio__: I have done
[04:39] <Andeh> IKONIA: ubuntuguide.com?
[04:39] <ikonia> Andeh: no
[04:39] <Andeh> Thats what google came up with...
[04:39] <kuma> ikonia thx
[04:39] <ikonia> Andeh: the ubuntu website and wiki - as I've said 3 times now
[04:39] <tulio__> ikonia: do you use ubuntu?
[04:40] <numan> zenerek: not crashing but i get the black screen after ubuntu startup sound and my lcd display go out of range
[04:40] <ikonia> tulio__: I do on my laptop
[04:40] <Andeh> Yes, typing that took me to a google search page wich said its on ubuntuguide.com
[04:40] <Andeh> Never mind...
[04:40] <Shane-S> hmm...I gave my interface a static address and it works, asking it to obtain via DHCP fails, what could cause that?
[04:40] <Zenerek>  ikonia if he wants it he's will have to read the wiki and do a little work, which was in my opinion much easier than getting a modem to work
[04:40] <gordonjcp> numan: perhaps you can do CTRL-ALT-F1 and get a text console?
[04:40] <ikonia> Andeh: no it didn't http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com does NOT take you to ubuntuguide.org
[04:40] <zipper> tulio__, try #ubuntu-effects
[04:40] <tulio__> ikonia: strange, when my xgl is running i cant play videos
[04:40] <Shane-S> I know DHCP is working as all system are obtaining IP addresses
[04:40] <daveletourneau> Ok :) I just want to customize the startup process so that it prints the IP address of the machine just before the login prompt. I already have a script that works outside of the rcX but can't get it to work in the startup process. It's on edgy server and I tryed with update-rc and manually. Nothing prints in this context.
[04:40] <tulio__> dont know why
[04:40] <ikonia> tulio__: worked fine for me
[04:40] <kuma> let me rephrase, how can i access to the /usr/bin/ directory? i try with cd and i get a not found error?
[04:41] <gils> after my last big update on feisty two nights ago, the kernel boot has become very slow.....i saw that it gets stuck for well over a minute on Initiating Network interfaces....any help on that
[04:41] <tulio__> ill try again
[04:41] <ikonia> kuma: ls -la /usr/bin
[04:41] <jrib> gils: #ubuntu+1 for help with feisty
[04:41] <Andeh> ikonia: I know it doesnt >_>
[04:41] <Andeh> Searching doesnt give me anything useful
[04:41] <zulfajuniadi> gils: revert to your old kernel
[04:41] <kuma> ikonia: is /usr/bin/ directory the same as /usr/local/bin?
[04:41] <ikonia> Andeh: then I guess its not ubuntu thats stupid.......
[04:41] <genii> numan I kept asking you questions to find more specific things about your computer to help. But you do not respond. If you want help, it is first important to discover specific things, then approach the issue from this direction.
[04:41] <numan> and at the text console type what to install i tried this command "live acpi=off" but got the kernel panic error
[04:41] <ikonia> kuma: no
[04:41] <Andeh> And I AM on wiki.ubuntu.com now
[04:41] <jrib> kuma: if you can't cd to /usr/bin you have a broken system...
[04:41] <bu2> jrib here is my confusion. I gave the files in /www to my ubuntu user so I could edit them across a network. If I change the ownership to www-data then I will loose the ability to edit them, right? How do I make it so both www-data and my ubuntu user "bu2" have write permissions?
[04:41] <gils> zulfajuniadi: I did that
[04:41] <gils> same thing
[04:42] <kuma> a broken system? x_x
[04:42] <Lake> Even though today seems to be Feisty Question Day, I'm still going to annoy with mine: Can anyone help me figure out why my Dapper won't reckognise my Radeon 9800?
[04:42] <ikonia> kuma: what ?
[04:42] <Andeh> ikonia: Did something explode in your face today?
[04:42] <rambo3> numan, kernel is a drama queen
[04:42] <jrib> kuma: pastebin exactly what you are doing including all the output
[04:42] <ikonia> Lake: you know its not a fesity channel - so don't ask
[04:42] <zulfajuniadi> gils: #ubuntu+1 is the place for you m8 :)
[04:42] <ikonia> Andeh: no

[04:42] <rambo3> karthik, yeah its called adobe.com
[04:43] <Andeh> Summary of conversation: I am stupid, ubuntu should have a page about codecs, and, i am stupid. GREAT!!
[04:43] <jrib> bu2: set up a group that can edit the files and add your user to that group.  Then just leave www-data as the user that owns the files (that's what I would do)
[04:43] <Pici> !codec | Andeh
[04:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[04:43] <karthik> oh...Rambo can u explain clearly
[04:43] <Lake> ikonia: I'm asking about good ol Dapper, not about so so new Feisty Beta
[04:43] <Pici> Andeh: We have many pages about codes, you just need to look.  See ubotu's mesasge above.
[04:44] <Andeh> Found them. Ubuntu.com seems to have several wikis, of which only one is actually a wiki.
[04:44] <ikonia> Lake: fair enough
[04:44] <karthik> guys!.help me....how to convert a PDF to DOC .....
[04:44] <Andeh> I found a couple
[04:44] <ikonia> Andeh: it only has one
[04:44] <cappicrd> dunno
[04:44] <ravi_master> karthik: you can convert pdf to text
[04:44] <daveletourneau> Nothing about my little scripting problem? (it should be easy... I'm just not there yet)
[04:44] <ikonia> karthik: you're being really annoying
[04:44] <ravi_master> karthik: you can convert pdf to html too
[04:44] <grogoreo> hi
[04:44] <Andeh> Ikonia: actually, there's www.ubuntu.com/wiki and wiki.ubuntu.com but feel free to delete the first one, its not very useful.
[04:45] <ravi_master> karthik: standard commands in ubuntu, pdftohtml and pdftotext
[04:45] <Lake> ikonia: so... since you seem to be able to type, would you also happen to know things about Radeon 9800 drivers ?
[04:45] <grogoreo> can you have gnome menu items specific to your user only?
[04:45] <Andeh> My search got me several pages.
[04:45] <karthik> ravi_master.how  it can be done
[04:45] <ikonia> Andeh: they both link to the same place
[04:45] <grogoreo> like system wide menu is /usr/share/applications is there a user one?
[04:45] <jrib> grogoreo: yeah, when you right click on the ubuntu icon and go to "edit menus" that is what happens
[04:45] <macjason0607> hi
[04:45] <jrib> grogoreo: ~/.local/share/applications/
[04:45] <grogoreo> jrib: thanks man
[04:45] <macjason0607> got a question
[04:45] <ravi_master> karthik: pdftohtml inputpdf.pdf, hit enter, open that up in a browser, copy the whole page, paste into word or Ooffice and save as a doc file
[04:45] <karthik> ravi....explain how...i m new tp ubuntu??
[04:46] <zulfajuniadi> !ask | macjason0607
[04:46] <ubotu> macjason0607: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:46] <Andeh> ikonia: Oh. Whatever... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=codecs&titlesearch=Titles gives me several results.
[04:46] <karthik> k
[04:46] <jrib> grogoreo: http://www.gnome.org/learn/ has some good stuff
[04:46] <Andeh> Ill read them all until i find the one about getting stuff to work in firefox...
[04:46] <ikonia> Andeh: I know it does - thats why I asked you to use the wiki
[04:46] <genii> There are just so many things wrong with trying to reverse engineer pdf files
[04:46] <macjason0607> according to ubuntu website it only works for PowerPC based Apple computers and OpenPower/Power5 computers
[04:46] <macjason0607> there anyway i can run this in parallels under an intel mac ?
[04:46] <Andeh> ikonia: Indeed. Quite so.
[04:47] <Andeh> Oh. They all link to the same page. Lovely.
[04:47] <ikonia> macjason0607: thats an interesting question - I doubt it but thats not fact
[04:47] <daveletourneau> I just wrote a script, put it in /etc/init.d, set it to executable. (It executes perfectly in a terminal) After I tryed : sudo update-rc -f adresse.sh start 99 2 3 . Something wrong at first sight?
[04:47] <bu2> !permissions
[04:47] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux

[04:48] <Lake> Anyonw know of any problems with Radeon 9800 and Dapper?
[04:48] <ikonia> Lake: flakey drivers only
[04:48] <ravi_master> Lake: every ati card is a problem
[04:48] <daedra> is there... a way of outputting "Now playing" information from mpd to tmsnc
[04:49] <Ali_ix> lol
[04:49] <qebab> Is anyone able to help me mount my Creative Zen Touch on my laptop? I followed a guide on ubuntuforums.org, but ran into some problems
[04:49] <Lake> ikonia: is flakey drivers a driver compilation name or is that to doubtful drivers?
[04:49] <qebab> I'll try it one more time and paste the result into a pastebin if it is of any help
[04:49] <ravi_master> Lake: bad drivers
[04:49] <daedra> qebab: you need gnomad2
[04:49] <limetang> What does isolinux disk error 80 mean?
[04:49] <qebab> I know
[04:49] <qebab> That is what I tried to install
[04:49] <daedra> qebab: I'll get you a link one sec
[04:49] <qebab> and that's where my adventure stopped for the moment :)
[04:50] <Lake> ravi_master: so there is litle way it'll work?
[04:50] <ikonia> Lake: the drivers are touch and go - some people they work fine - others not at all
[04:50] <jrib> bu2: you could also just add your user to the www-data group now that I think about it
[04:50] <bu2> jrib, Ok. I am half way there. I have read the file permissions explanations many times but I am not sure how to do this "set up a group that can edit the files and add your user to that group."
[04:50] <ravi_master> Lake: they'll work if they do, and miserably fail if they don't
[04:50] <bu2> ok How do I do that?
[04:50] <daedra> qebab: http://www.linux.ie/articles/tutorials/zen.php
[04:50] <ravi_master> Lake: and you'll never know when the next update will kill your graphics
[04:50] <bu2> Jrib sorry, how do I add a user to a group?
[04:50] <Lake> ikonia, ravi_master: So I just hit some bad luck and I have to go buy myself Nvidia?
[04:50] <qebab> thank you daedra
[04:50] <bu2> ah,
[04:51] <jrib> bu2: sudo adduser your_user_name www-data
[04:51] <ikonia> Lake: pretty much
[04:51] <ravi_master> Lake: no, try the proprietary drivers and the OSS drivers, if none of those work, then buy Nvidia
[04:51] <numan> i almost wasted 2 hours looking for help buit cant find any usable one
[04:51] <ravi_master> Lake: did you try to do envy?
[04:51] <daveletourneau> Any startup scripts guru? (A half-guru would do the job ;) )
[04:51] <Lake> ikonia, ravi_master: is this always like this with Radeon? Should no one interested in Linux should stay clear of Radeon for the next generation?
[04:51] <bu2> jrib thanks
[04:51] <rambo3> daveletourneau, #bash ?
[04:51] <ravi_master> Lake: yes sir
[04:52] <Lake> ravi_master: well, I've tried and got errors
[04:52] <daedra> qebab: keep in mind, this is a "it worked for _me_" situation
[04:52] <ravi_master> Lake: tried envy?
[04:52] <Lake> ravi_master: I've tried a lot of things (or so I think) and got errors
[04:52] <ikonia> Lake: thats my presonal opinion that ati is not worth the effort
[04:52] <rambo3> daveletourneau, make script in init.d +x
[04:52] <ravi_master> Lake: come on over to #ati-radeon-hell
[04:52] <qebab> Well, my problem was lies in compiling gnomad2
[04:52] <Lake> ravi_master: shuold have kown that before I got the idea of turning to LInux :P
[04:52] <fuzzy_logic> wich p2p client would you guys preffer?
[04:52] <bu2> jrib, thanks. You really helped me out. I got it working
[04:52] <Lake> ravi_master: hahahha!! Love the name
[04:52] <qebab> For some reason I can't install the packages that is needed for it
[04:53] <Lake> ikonia: thank you for your time!
[04:53] <qebab> So I just get a ton of errormessages
[04:53] <robert_> does anybody have any experience with using ldap as an authentication service?
[04:53] <daedra> !gnomad2
[04:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gnomad2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:53] <daedra> qebab: you can apt-get install gnomad2
[04:53] <Andeh> OK, i did the command to install all the plugins into ubuntu. An apt-get command with lots of packages following.
[04:53] <Andeh> But, firefox still says NO VIDEO.
[04:53] <daedra> no need to compile
[04:54] <daedra> compiling tends to rope in a load of dependancies
[04:54] <rambo3> Andeh, mozilla-mplayer ?
[04:54] <flake> I've been playing with ubuntu / linux for several months and want to get a cheap / basic linux cert, which one should I consider?
[04:54] <qebab> ah, that's beautiful
[04:54] <qebab> thanks daedra
[04:54] <vox754> !info gnomad2

[04:56] <eternal_p> hi all.....i'm hoping someone can help me...I turned on my laptop this morning (nothing changed) and now, I get a signal 11 when X logs in...it turns out it is Beryl and I had to uninstalll it...nothing else had changed...I removed it completly, including all settings and the same thing happens...help!!
[04:56] <qebab> oh dear /o\
[04:56] <qebab> well, gnomad freezes
[04:56] <jrib> eternal_p: did you try to reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[04:56] <Andeh> OK heres a full list
[04:56] <qebab> but at least it finds the player! :)
[04:56] <Andeh> VLC multimedia plugin Totem Web Browser Plugin 2.16.2 Shockwave Flash Helix DNA Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatible (compatible; Totem) Windows Media Player Plug-in 10 (compatible; Totem) DivX Web PlayerQuickTime Plug-in 7.0 (compatible; Totem)
[04:56] <Andeh>  Java(TM) Plug-in 1.5.0_06-b05
[04:56] <Ali_ix> eternal_p: i have some problems with new xorg (7.2.1...) and beryl
[04:57] <eternal_p> jrib: nope
[04:57] <jrib> !xconfig > eternal_p    (eternal_p, see the private message from ubotu)
[04:57] <Ali_ix> eternal_p: try to update your beryl with svn to latest
[04:57] <eternal_p> ali_ix: I did that...no difference
[04:57] <Andeh> Now my best guess is its trying to use a player that doesnt know i just installed all those plugins, (all of which should be playable tru VLC anyway)
[04:58] <daveletourneau> I just want to customize the startup process so that it prints the IP address of the machine just before the login prompt. I already have a script that works outside of the rcX but can't get it to work in the startup process. It's on edgy server and I just wrote a script, put it in /etc/init.d, set it to executable. (It executes perfectly in a terminal) After I tryed : sudo update-rc -f adresse.sh start 99 2 3 . Something wrong at first sight?
[04:58] <neil__> Hey guys, how do I make ubuntu write ntfs, and is it 100% safe now?
[04:58] <Ali_ix> eternal_p: here i heard some one tried VGA driver reinstallation, may help
[04:58] <Pici> neil__: You can use fuse or ntfs3g and no, its not 100% safe.
[04:58] <Ali_ix> eternal_p: i have disabled beryl now :|
[04:58] <rambo3> eternal_p, uninstall xorg with purge and install and  reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[04:58] <qebab> ah, beautiful, it works, many thanks dadrea
[04:58] <mikebeecham> I have a quick question....ever so recently, the flurry screensaver has been playing, but it seems corrupted somehow, life there is the sharp outline of a window previously there...anyone know how I can restore Flurry?
[04:58] <Andeh> rambo3: Did you find anything wrong with the plugins i just pasted?
[04:59] <neil__> Prob I have, I want to shrink my windows
[04:59] <Mgccl> hello, I was trying to edit a file and it says "can't open file to write", what can I do
[04:59] <neil__> But the partition comes before my ext3 one..
[04:59] <arch_> how can I add the trash bin to my desktop (gnome)?
[04:59] <Pici> Andeh: I vaugely remember having to copy files out of my mozilla plugins folder and into my firefox plugins folder some time ago to get video working.  I dont remember exactly what I had to do, but maybe this can give you some leads to search on.
[04:59] <neil__> I cant extend my ext3 partition toward the start of the drive can I?
[04:59] <flake> neil - I would be careful with ntfs, microsoft is greedy with the specs
[04:59] <daedra> Mgccl: that can happen for a number of reasons: file permissions, file does not exist, filesystem not mounted...
[04:59] <jrib> !icons > arch_    (arch_, see the private message from ubotu)
[04:59] <ardchoille> Pici: Why didn't you just ln -s them?
[05:00] <vprajan> neil__: u can.. is the partition has free space above..
[05:00] <Pici> ardchoille: I might have done that, like I said,it was quite a while ago.
[05:00] <Andeh> Pici: Ehm... ALL the plugins to play ALL the formats i have tried are there, but MPG and some others most commonly used just show black space and NO VIDEO.
[05:00] <Andeh> As you can see in my paste, VLC and all the other ones ARE there.
[05:00] <Andeh> Firefox just doesnt use them properly
[05:00] <Mgccl> file exist... could be file permission problem.. but I just installed xubuntu and login as first user.. how can I edit the file permissions?
[05:01] <daedra> Mgccl: chmod
[05:01] <Mgccl> damn I hate been a noob... >.<
[05:01] <elementz> hi everybody
[05:01] <jrib> Mgccl: what file?
[05:02] <Mgccl> grub/menu.lst
[05:02] <elementz> desperately need help with my ethernet on my edgy box - suddenly my internet connection keeps getting timeouts on that box
[05:02] <Andeh> So, basically, what can i do to make it easier for you to help me?
[05:02] <Mgccl> I think I need to login as root.. how do I do that?
[05:02] <b33j0r> Can anyone help me troubleshoot wireless in feisty beta?
[05:02] <elementz> could anybody help me out pls?
[05:02] <jrib> !sudo > Mgccl    (Mgccl, see the private message from ubotu)
[05:02] <ardchoille> Mgccl: Are you trying to edit the menu.lst?
[05:02] <jrib> b33j0r: #ubuntu+1 for help in feisty
[05:02] <Andeh> I KNOW those plugins can play it and i KNOW because i tried them externally AND because they show up in ABOUT:PLUGINS but they just dont work!
[05:03] <b33j0r> thanks
[05:03] <daedra> Mgccl: try typing:  sudo chmod 644 [FILENAME] 
[05:03] <Mgccl> ardchoille: yes
[05:03] <jrib> Andeh: which plugin is firefox actually loading to play the video that fails?
[05:03] <jrib> Mgccl, daedra: there is no need to chmod the file
[05:04] <daedra> Mgccl: oh - you'll want to simply " sudo nano [FILENAME]  "
[05:04] <ardchoille> Mgccl: Don't change the file permissions on that file, rather open it with: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst  to edit it.
[05:04] <drarem> what's a good basic and cheap first linux cert to pursue?  I've been playing with linux for several months.
[05:04] <Andeh> jrib: That's what i am trying to find out.
[05:04] <jrib> Andeh: right click on it, all of the plugins ahve their own unique menu
[05:05] <Andeh> jrib: I think firefox itself outputs the NO VIDEO message because when i deleted everything except VLC in the plugins folder, it still said no video.
[05:05] <Andeh> It also said that before i installed VLC.
[05:05] <elementz> pls does anybody have time to help me out?
[05:05] <Andeh> ok i will
[05:05] <daedra> Mgccl: listen to jrib...
[05:05] <Mgccl> ok....
[05:05] <Andeh> No they dont
[05:05] <Andeh> THey dont have menus, not in the ABOUT:PLUGINS page anyway
[05:05] <jrib> Andeh: no, when you play a video
[05:06] <Andeh> No, that gives me a NO VIDEO error that sits there and does nothing.
[05:06] <daveletourneau> Someone available for a 2 min question about startup scripts? I'll pay you a beer ;)
[05:06] <Andeh> I cant right click either
[05:06] <surface> elementz, it will be more efficient to just raise the question on the air
[05:06] <cracjan> daveletourneau: iam here..
[05:06] <elementz> surface, tried that already
[05:06] <Zenerek> jrib would those plugins work in opera?
[05:06] <jrib> Andeh: http://www.linspire.com/products_linspire_whatis.php?tab=compatibility  do the embedded videos work on this page?
[05:06] <elementz> surface, ok i'll try again:
[05:06] <superm1> can anyone tell me which package has xfs_fsr? it doesn't appear to be xfsprogs: http://pastebin.ca/425506
[05:06] <jrib> Zenerek: which plugins?
[05:07] <Andeh> There are no videos on that page.
[05:07] <jrib> Andeh: scroll down
[05:07] <Zenerek> the one's to play wmv and such, i have made flash wrok before via the firefox plugin folder
[05:07] <Andeh> Oh i see
[05:07] <daveletourneau> I just want to customize the startup process so that it prints the IP address of the machine just before the login prompt. I already have a script that works outside of the rcX but can't get it to work in the startup process. It's on edgy server and I just wrote a script, put it in /etc/init.d, set it to executable. (It executes perfectly in a terminal) After I tryed : sudo update-rc -f adresse.sh start 99 2 3 . Something wrong at first sight?
[05:07] <Andeh> the links
[05:07] <elementz> my internet connection on my main box running edgy suddenly got really slow - i keep getting timeouts - i have no clue what might be the reason - wiinxp on the same box connects just fine
[05:08] <Andeh> Well, it tries to download most of them and the rest say "no video".
[05:08] <jrib> !opera > Zenerek    (Zenerek, see the private message from ubotu)
[05:08] <Pici> elementz: Have you tried disabling ipv6?
[05:08] <Andeh> OGG ALSO says no video...
[05:08] <Pici> !ipv6 | elementz
[05:08] <Andeh> weird
[05:08] <ubotu> elementz: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[05:08] <cracjan> daveletourneau: what runlevel you are using by default ?
[05:08] <Andeh> Heres my plugins:
[05:08] <mon^rch> daveletourneau: try sudo hostname <ip address> ?
[05:08] <daveletourneau> It seems to be 2 (I was surprised that it was not 3)
[05:08] <elementz> Pici, nope i will check - but it worked earlier and then suddenly stopped working - thats what i find so strange
[05:09] <Andeh> Wait
[05:09] <surface> elementz, check out /etc/resolves.conf
[05:09] <b33j0r> Does anyone know what in general could cause this? I can list AP's, but they all show as 0% strength. I can associate with the one I want, but the networking icon still says no connection and internet does not work. There is no encryption or anything on the AP.
[05:09] <Andeh> Here
[05:09] <Andeh> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14031/
[05:09] <surface> elementz, check out /etc/resolv.conf sorry
[05:09] <b33j0r> I associated with iwconfig and iwconfig even shows the ip address
[05:09] <cracjan> daveletourneau: check for your script under /etc/rc(2 or 3).d
[05:09] <daveletourneau> In fact I'm on runlevel 2 after login but I want my address printed just before login
[05:10] <b33j0r> One thing I noticed is that there is only an ip6 address listed for wireless device ra0
[05:10] <Andeh> It installed all the third party ones by doing a command i found in the ubuntu wiki codecs page.
[05:10] <Andeh> But VLC should be able to play everything anyway
[05:10] <elementz> Pici, surface, ok hold on guys, I'll try
[05:10] <daveletourneau> It's already there. Tryed to add it manually and with update-rc too neighter work in the startup process
[05:10] <surface> elementz, to get fast internet straight point to the dns provided by isp.
[05:10] <b33j0r> Could that be a problem? I don't even know if ip6 works on my network, never tried it
[05:10] <jrib> daveletourneau: why not setup a cron job to stick it in /etc/issue
[05:11] <daedra> b33j0r: what distro version you on? (dapper/edgy...)
[05:11] <elementz> surface, dunno if that is possible - am getting my ip via dhcp?
[05:11] <theacolyte> b33j0r: that usually means that you don't have an IP on your wireless adapter (it may have not associated, or DHCP may not have worked)
[05:11] <surface> b33j0r, no need to disable ipv6, my experience is the dns
[05:11] <cracjan> daveletourneau: not possible, did ur script file name start with S100 or something..
[05:11] <daveletourneau> jrib: the cron job can be set to run just before login prompt?
[05:11] <daedra> i have a ra0 chipset
[05:11] <b33j0r> I'm actually on feisty, but I couldn't get any answers in #ubuntu+1
[05:11] <b33j0r> What is ra0 vs. wlan0
[05:12] <jrib> daveletourneau: should be able to run it @reboot.  This is just a suggestion to try since you see to have been asking for a while
[05:12] <surface> elementz, commonly yes, usually by default, we get ip addr from router modem
[05:12] <elementz> surface, got two nameservers in my /etc/resovle.conf - should i delete them?
[05:12] <daveletourneau> cracjan: its name is adresse.sh in /etc/init.d but in the rc2/3 the symlink is S99adresse.sh
[05:12] <b33j0r> so why would I not have an IP on my adapter?
[05:12] <daedra> ra0 means you have a ralink wireless chipset on your card
[05:12] <jrib> daveletourneau: I guess it might fail if you don't have an ip yet though... maybe you'll want to run it after you get an ip
[05:12] <b33j0r> the dns is set up properly automatically
[05:12] <Andeh> Has anyone found what my problem is??
[05:12] <Andeh> I posted my About:Plugins page earlier
[05:12] <park13> has anyone here installed ubuntu on dell precision 490
[05:13] <Andeh>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14031/
[05:13] <cracjan> daveletourneau: then it should work.. hmmm..
[05:13] <elementz> surface, is dns=nameserver or a different thing?
[05:13] <rambo3> daedra, open terminal and type : sudo dhclient ra0
[05:13] <cracjan> Andeh: how u installed the plugins ?
[05:13] <daedra> rambo3: I'm not the one with the problem
[05:13] <surface> elementz, no, u need to make sure that nameserver is it provided by ur isp
[05:13] <daveletourneau> Yes, I thought about it but my echoes print absolutely nothing even if it is just text. (don't know if the script launches anyway)
[05:14] <rambo3> teah sorry
[05:14] <surface> elementz, try to ping ur nameserver
[05:14] <rambo3> b33j0r, , open terminal and type : sudo dhclient ra0
[05:14] <jrib> daveletourneau: that is why you use /etc/issue
[05:14] <wizard_> theres no way to move the genre colom in rhytmbox is there?
[05:14] <b33j0r> "No DHCPOFFERS received. ... -sleeping
[05:14] <cracjan> daveletourneau: is there any other script start with S99 name ?
[05:14] <dragon52225> Hello all
[05:14] <Andeh> cracjan: I installed VLC which should play everything, its certainly capable of it.
[05:14] <Andeh> I also installed all those other ones using a long command i found on the ubuntu wiki, codecs page.
[05:14] <cracjan> daveletourneau: that might cause problems..
[05:14] <daveletourneau> Is it ok for me to begin the script with #!/bin/sh or is it better with bash ? (sorry if the question seems silly)
[05:14] <dragon52225> I have a question about installing ubuntu
[05:14] <Andeh> But it wont play OGG files either
[05:15] <jrib> Andeh: get rid of vlc.  Does totem work?
[05:15] <Andeh> ANY embedded content just shows up as NO VIDEO.
[05:15] <cracjan> Andeh: yeah correct.. but browser plugins require some workarounds..
[05:15] <rambo3> b33j0r, WEP WPA or open ?
[05:15] <b33j0r> open
[05:15] <daveletourneau> I also tryed with a non conflicting SXX number with the same result
[05:15] <bu2> dragon52225, ask the question. If somebody knows how to help they will say.
[05:15] <daedra> !pastebin
[05:15] <ardchoille> daveletourneau: I think #!/bin/sh is ok. I have a few that begin like that and they haven't had problems.
[05:15] <b33j0r> mac filtering, but this card is on the list (works in XP)
[05:15] <Andeh> jrib: No, i want to keep it. I installed it because i had this problem the first time i tried playing a video.
[05:15] <dragon52225> When i try to launch it, it just shows this: "Int 14:  CR2 f8000000  err 00000000  EIP c020bc34  CS 00000060  flags 00010007"

[05:15] <elementz> surface, how do i find out which is my nameserver? am on another ubuntu box right now - connected to the same isp
[05:15] <dragon52225> and just stops there
[05:15] <jrib> Andeh: we are troubleshooting
[05:15] <Andeh> And i thought it would make itself the default one
[05:15] <Andeh> YAY
[05:16] <Andeh> Ok...
[05:16] <cracjan> Andeh: Check here: ~/.mozilla/plugins
[05:16] <daveletourneau> Is the echo handled the same way in the startup mode script as in the terminal?
[05:16] <surface> elementz, ping the dns, is it responding?
[05:16] <davenick> hi, can anyone tell me how to pipe a file containing commands to konsole?
[05:16] <rambo3> b33j0r, sudo iwconfig ra0 mode managed && sudo iwconfig ra0 key off && sudo dhclient ra0
[05:16] <dragon52225> Well the second line i get is "Stack: c00f7c60 c03f12eb c0370be4 00000002 c00f7c69 00f7c60 0000000 000000"
[05:16] <cracjan> daveletourneau: yeah.. the same way.. no difference
[05:16] <surface> elementz, or tracepath to google.com, is it goes through the dns?
[05:16] <dragon52225> anyone have any ideas?
[05:17] <jrib> davenick: cat file |       but I doubt that is what you want.  Be more specific
[05:17] <preaction> davenick: "pipe"? you mean execute a shell script?
[05:17] <Lunar_Lamp> Both Azureus and amsn do not have icons in the window-list tabs. How can I fix this?
[05:17] <Mgccl> hi, is there anyway to login as root? because I don't want to sudu stuff...
[05:17] <daveletourneau> Ok, I'll just try some other things then. Thanks a lot for your time :) Where do I send the beer?
[05:17] <numan> anybody plz help for ubuntu installation problem
[05:17] <jrib> Mgccl: the page ubotu gave you tells you you can do 'sudo -i'
[05:17] <Andeh> ./mozilla/plugins ONLY has one, libflashplayer
[05:17] <Pici> dragon52225: Have you tried using the Alternative CD?
[05:17] <preaction> Mgccl: sudo -s will give you a root shell
[05:17] <vleon> hellow, i just recieved my old-new comp from fixing
[05:17] <Andeh> But arent they supposed to be in  user/lib/firefox/plugins??
[05:17] <cracjan> daveletourneau: its a long distance man..
[05:17] <dragon52225> Pici, no.  But do you know whats wrong?
[05:17] <cracjan> daveletourneau: to india
[05:17] <cracjan> :)
[05:17] <jrib> Andeh: both work
[05:17] <Andeh> thats where i found all of them anyway
[05:17] <daedra> b33j0r: maybe this will help? I run this script at boot to bring my card up: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14033/
[05:17] <dragon52225> i will download the alt CD later, but any idea?
[05:18] <davenick> jrib i want to make a FIFO named pipe using mkfifo, and have my java program write to the file and have a konsole read the commands from it
[05:18] <elementz> surface, seems that its a different dns than in the list - checking on working computer right now - tracepath gave me a different output than stored in /etc/resolv.conf
[05:18] <Andeh> jrib: they should.
[05:18] <vleon> it was left with an ubuntu 6.10 the thing is that i have an amd64, i wish to install a 64 based ubuntu
[05:18] <cracjan> Andeh: hey.. thats the problem.. the plugins are not installed correctly..
[05:18] <b33j0r> dhcp didn't work. thx daedra I'll check it out
[05:18] <Andeh> I dont see why everything except flash gives me "(no video)"... :(
[05:18] <Pici> dragon52225: Sounds like a hardware incompatibility. In addition, you could try verifying the ISO's md5sum after download.
[05:18] <daveletourneau> Anyway, Maybe another time. See ya! :)
[05:18] <cracjan> Andeh: the plugins u mention must come under .mozilla/plugins..
[05:18] <Andeh> cracjan, didnt jrib just say both work?
[05:18] <vleon> the question is if ill install fiesty beta will it upgrade when the stable release will be out?
[05:18] <dragon52225> Yes i verified md5sum before
[05:18] <Pici> vleon: Yes, it will.
[05:18] <Andeh> so they dont both work...
[05:18] <vleon> great thanks
[05:18] <Ali_ix> vleon: yes
[05:19] <dragon52225> THe only thing on the CD that works is the memtest86....
[05:19] <Andeh> aargh this is horrible
[05:19] <Mgccl> cool thx... now I feel I have the power...
[05:19] <Lunar_Lamp> vleon, yes, provided you do the "aptitude upgrad" :-)
[05:19] <Andeh> Ill try
[05:19] <elementz> surface, i actually have two ips stored in my /etc/resolv.conf - on this box it is working - and on the box with the slow internet connection the /etc/resolv.conf looks exactly the same
[05:19] <Andeh> Ok i copied them all
[05:19] <RoundyT1> what is Ubuntu's default Umaks?
[05:19] <Andeh> ill restart ff now
[05:19] <Pici> dragon52225: Some computers have issues with the LiveCD, and have to use the Alternative CD to install
[05:19] <RoundyT1> Umask*
[05:20] <cracjan> Andeh: dont be tensed.. be cool..
[05:20] <jrib> davenick: if you want your shell to execute the commands in the file you can do 'source some_file' or '. some_file'
[05:20] <b33j0r> I'm still having problems, but I've gotta run an errand, thx for the ideas
[05:20] <Andeh> cracjan: LOL
[05:20] <Andeh> thanks for that
[05:20] <Andeh> made me laugh
[05:20] <cracjan> Andeh: yeah.. u r doing it correct..
[05:20] <cracjan> lol
[05:20] <dragon52225> I have an AMD chipset its a compaq computer with realtek audio, amd 3500+, radeon x1600.....  chipset reports as "AMD 8000"?  Well any clue which piece is causing the issue?
[05:20] <daedra> b33j0r: kk
[05:20] <Andeh> Im getting better at this
[05:20] <surface> elementz, then should be different cases, on slow internet box, hows the ping response compare to another?
[05:20] <RoundyT1> what is Ubuntu's default Umask ---------------???
[05:20] <Andeh> Firefox taking ages to load this time tho :-0
[05:20] <dragon52225> I can get more info if you want.
[05:20] <jrib> RoundyT1: 0222, just type umask
[05:20] <dragon52225> Oh yeah, i forgot to say, i'm using feisty fawn beta
[05:20] <surface> elementz, here scrolling too fast, very diff to catch ur discussion, consider to go #lbe
[05:21] <jrib> RoundyT1: erm, I mean 022 :)
[05:21] <Lunar_Lamp> Both Azureus and amsn do not have icons in my taskbar tabs. How can I fix this?
[05:21] <Andeh> AAAARGH!!!! NO VIDEO. (caps off
[05:21] <Andeh> Ok, whats the next step?
[05:21] <Andeh> :)
[05:21] <cracjan> Andeh: oops..
[05:21] <jrib> Andeh: do what I said
[05:21] <Andeh> You said both work...
[05:21] <RoundyT1> jrib, you mean 0002?
[05:21] <cracjan> jrib: ok.. lets not confuse Andeh..
[05:21] <dragon52225> By the way, the alt cd description doesn't say anything about hardware issues?
[05:21] <Andeh> Thank you :)
[05:21] <jrib> cracjan: ok, you go ahead
[05:22] <cracjan> jrib: no.. what method u r proposin..
[05:22] <Panzer_> I have always used the alt install cd rather
[05:22] <Andeh> jrib: I really have the feeling something DID explode in your face today...
[05:22] <Andeh> or that something similar happened
[05:22] <jrib> Andeh: ?
[05:22] <Andeh> lol
[05:22] <Panzer_> then the live cd's.  My computers had dma errors with the live cd's
[05:22] <Ali_ix> !support
[05:22] <ubotu> The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu (whether you get a response there or not). Please be aware that this channel is mainly for idle chatter.
[05:22] <Andeh> You should change your name to Grumpeh
[05:22] <jrib> cracjan, Andeh: get rid of vlc so we can troubleshoot totem
[05:22] <dragon52225> panzer whats a DMA error?  lol, i'm a n00b at computers
[05:22] <Andeh> Now, where were we?
[05:22] <cracjan> Andeh: so.. what crap happening now with firefox..
[05:23] <UbuntuU> The installer won't resize my ntfs partition. - is there a workaround if i know it is the drive controller?
[05:23] <Andeh> cracjan: The same as happened first time i played a video. NOTHING.
[05:23] <cracjan> jrib: yeah.. thats a cool idea..
[05:23] <Panzer_> well in this case I had oddball setup with scsi card
[05:23] <Panzer_> it could not talk to my harddrives
[05:23] <dragon52225> bleh....  i guess i need to d-load the alt CD.....
[05:23] <Andeh> It just gives me an ugly NO VIDEO on black BG where the videos supposed to be
[05:23] <cracjan> jrib: but it will burn more brain out of Andeh.. lol
[05:23] <dragon52225> mine is the kernel won't even boot.... i think
[05:23] <dragon52225> it exits w/ an error
[05:23] <jrib> Andeh: or get rid of totem and troubleshoot vlc.  Either way, we don't even know what plugin you are using
[05:24] <cracjan> Andeh: VLC is a cross platform player.. it may cause problems..
[05:24] <Andeh> Also, in case you didnt look at any of those pastebins i posted, MPLAYER isnt even there :(
[05:24] <Panzer_> you got fast net?  Yea the alt installs for me just seem to work better.  I will get a working system after I install
[05:24] <dragon52225> i guess....
[05:24] <Panzer_> ftp the alt install then
[05:24] <Panzer_> or torrent
[05:24] <davenick> jrib thats not what i want, i want it to read from a file as if the user had typed the commands, so i create a fifo pipe and get one program to write to it and another to read from it eg with 2 konsoles open (A and B)  A("mkfifo mypipe") A("ls />mypipe") B(less -f mypipe) but instead of "ls and less" i want to use "myjavaprogram and konsole"  to execute the commands
[05:24] <Andeh> Ok, so i should move ALL the totem files and ALL the totem files from the ./mozilla and firefox folder and then try to see if vlc works?
[05:24] <dragon52225> ill downlaod the alt CD now...  takes about 20 minuts if i max out my internet
[05:25] <Andeh> Well too bad. I just did that 6 hours ago when i started this conversation.
[05:25] <Andeh> :
[05:25] <dragon52225> (i always torrent my ubuntu/kubuntu cds).  I have the reg cd working on my server.....  so i guess its not the cds fault.
[05:25] <imc_> Hi. I added the Invest  to my panicon el and now I cannot move, adjust it properties or delete. I mouse over and it changes color, but right clicking does nothing. Can anyone help?
[05:25] <cracjan> Andeh: hey andeh..
[05:25] <Panzer_> nuts.  It takes me 40 hours
[05:25] <imc_> Hi. sorry --- I added the Invest icon  to my panel and now I cannot move, adjust it properties or delete. I mouse over and it changes color, but right clicking does nothing. Can anyone help?
[05:25] <dyrne> davenick: i would think that would just work. it doesnt?
[05:25] <Andeh> yes?
[05:25] <drarem> is linux+ a good first cert to pursue?
[05:25] <dragon52225> haha
[05:25] <davenick> no
[05:25] <dragon52225> on torrent i download at like 700 kb/s
[05:25] <Andeh> cracjan: YES?
[05:25] <drarem> is that the same as LPI 101
[05:25] <Andeh> *asplode*
[05:26] <Panzer_> dial up.  But I can get it.  nasty.  I need to come where you are then.
[05:26] <davenick> dyrne my example works, but when i use konsole it doesnt do anything
[05:26] <cracjan> Andeh: see what i have under .mozilla/plugins: flashplayer.xpt  libflashplayer.so
[05:26] <dragon52225> o, i have bad cable though, my ISP limits me to 30 GB of download a month
[05:26] <cracjan> Andeh: just the so files u need to copy..
[05:26] <Andeh> cracjan: OK and? I had that too...
[05:26] <Piet> will the 7.04 installer support dmcrypt + luke encryption?
[05:27] <jrib> Andeh: show us a screenshot of what firefox does on one of the linspire videos
[05:27] <Piet> s/luke/luks/
[05:27] <Panzer_> that is terrible.  with speeds like that you can easly reach that
[05:27] <wizard_> does gnome have any advanced controls to manage like bass and trebble?
[05:27] <Andeh> And now i have that and the 60 files from the firefox plugins folder XD
[05:27] <cracjan> Andeh: Check out: VLC have problems: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_crashes
[05:27] <tomix> can anyone tell me where errors committed by cron go?
[05:27] <tomix> im used to them being picked up in root's mail
[05:27] <imc_> Can anyone help with my gnome panel problem?
[05:27] <dragon52225> Yeah, so i limit myself to just basic emailing/games/apps.  I don't download much anyways
[05:27] <Andeh> cracjan: what a coincidence that i found that page ages ago when firefox crashed every time with flash player just installed
[05:28] <dragon52225> alt CD doesn't have half as many seeds =(
[05:28] <Andeh> Oh it wasnt that page
[05:28] <imc_> I have added the app but I cannot configure it or remove it
[05:28] <Andeh> Either way, THIS page says it only deals with what happens when it CRASHES, not DOESNT PLAY CONTENT.
[05:29] <cracjan> Andeh: Hey.. checkout the installation procedures listed..
[05:29] <dragon52225> The alt CD gives you the exact same content right?  just without the live thing
[05:29] <Andeh> brb
[05:29] <Panzer_> that is terrible.  also some of the alt install gives you more options for odd ball setups
[05:29] <cracjan> Andeh: Welcome to the linux world.. lol.. start learning
[05:29] <Pici> dragon52225: pretty much
[05:29] <Panzer_> yea
[05:29] <Andeh> SORRY GUYS, I HAVE TO GO
[05:29] <Andeh> Bye
[05:29] <dragon52225> is there an alt "live" cd?  because i was looking at backing up my broken windows files....
[05:29] <jolt> Heh has anyone had font issues with Emacs 21 in X....
[05:30] <tomix> anyone
[05:30] <tomix> ?
[05:30] <StoneyDD> i'm using a virtual machine to run ubuntu, then i wanted to install beryl, needed to install some drivers, followed this http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide#C and ubuntu wont load :/
[05:30] <drarem> should I work towards the LPI 101/102 or the ubuntu cert first
[05:30] <StoneyDD> help please :)
[05:30] <dragon52225> i have my one HD set up in a windows "c and d" drive.  am i able to install to C and leave my D as ntfs until i tar/gunzip it all before i change it?
[05:30] <jrib> tomix: for me, cron's mail gets sent to the first user on the system.  You probably need to setup local mail though.  Not sure what happens without that
[05:31] <StoneyDD> i'm using a virtual machine to run ubuntu, then i wanted to install beryl, needed to install some drivers, followed this http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide#C and ubuntu wont load :/
[05:31] <StoneyDD> anyone?
[05:31] <StoneyDD> please :)
[05:31] <drarem> StoneyDD - is it the VMWARE player you have?
[05:31] <Ali_ix> StoneyDD: check #beryl
[05:31] <StoneyDD> yes
[05:31] <tomix>  jrib: cheers for that
[05:31] <StoneyDD> thank you
[05:31] <drarem> if so, it doesn't support video card drivers
[05:31] <StoneyDD> thanks
[05:32] <drarem> i found that out a while back, trying to get basic opengl working on mine
[05:32] <dyrne> StoneyDD: you can do 3d in vmware?
[05:32] <imc_> Okay, anyone on my panel question please?
[05:32] <Pici> StoneyDD: I'm not sure its even possible to run 3d applications under vmware
[05:32] <drarem> it wouldn't detect my nvidia card
[05:32] <dragon52225> Well im going to give the alt CD a shot.  So will i be able to install to one drive while keeping my other NTFS partition?
[05:33] <dyrne> StoneyDD: there is also a #vmware group
[05:33] <StoneyDD> ok, thanks
[05:33] <numan> help help help help help
[05:33] <imc_> numan, WHAT
[05:34] <numan> i am having problem with ubuntu installation
[05:34] <Toxygene> Anyone know why, when I run 'lpr -P printer -# 3 -o Collate=True < 3_page_document' I get (1, 2, 3) instead of (1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3)?
[05:34] <arch_> If I want to be able to run a shell script from anywhere on my computer (in terminal), can I put it in /usr/bin/<script>, will that make it so I dont need to "./" it from location?
[05:34] <jrib> arch_: yes but you should use /usr/local/bin
[05:35] <imc_> Yeah, okay numan so state the specific problem and someone will help
[05:35] <hendrixski> has anyone tried linuxMCE yet?
[05:35] <nazo029A>  numan? whats wrong?
[05:35] <dyrne> anyone here use citrix? im wondering why it would search for fonts on the client machine.. the font is installed on the server (this is pretty offtopic)
[05:35] <Pici> imc_: Does this persist through a reboot?
[05:35] <nazo029A> i couldnt get it installed looks awesome though
[05:36] <imc_> Pici, thanks, yes it does :(
[05:36] <numan> i dont get to installation screen after selecting start or install  ubuntu
[05:36] <arch_> jrib: will I need to restart to implement that change?
[05:36] <jrib> arch_: no
[05:36] <nazo029A> black screen numan?
[05:36] <numan> yes
[05:36] <sacater> welp from gentoo loves abbey from NCIS
[05:36] <Ali_ix> numan: what do yuo get? blank page or error?
[05:37] <numan> black screen but i hear the sound
[05:37] <Ali_ix> numan: there is some problem with your VGA
[05:37] <Ali_ix> numan: what is vga?
[05:37] <Piet> will the 7.04 installer support dmcrypt + luks encryption?
[05:37] <numan> how to  fix it?
[05:37] <numan> i have nvidia geforce 6200 but also have onboard vga?
[05:37] <Ali_ix> numan: what is your VGA?
[05:38] <jaevel> anyone know how to enable the "choose desktop" at the login screen? i have gnome and kde installed but at the login screen it just askes for username and password? no option to change?
[05:38] <imc_> Pici any suggestions?
[05:38] <numan> i disabled the onboard vga but cant solve the problem
[05:38] <Ali_ix> numan: try to boot up with your onboard vga, install ubuntu and then try to install your main VGA drivers
[05:38] <Pici> imc_: Theres a bug filed for that applet that it doesnt render/work properly.  If you kill it from the the system-monitor or the terminal it should ask if you want to reload it, click no and it will be removed from the panel.
[05:38] <arch_> jrib: thanks, worked perfectly
[05:38] <Panzer_> yea there are ntfs drivers for ubuntu
[05:39] <imc_> Ah, thanks very much, I appreciate it
[05:39] <Pici> imc_: Also, There are some suggestions on how to get it to work here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-applets/+bug/59060 . At the bottom.
[05:39] <numan> but when i plug display cable to onboard vga i cant see anything
[05:39] <imc_> Pici, thanks, you're a star
[05:39] <Strider149> Can anyone help me an update I did this morning seems to have broken my Gnome
[05:39] <Rek|em> t
[05:39] <Fracture> is there a panel applet for gnome that IS a panel ?  i.e so that I can add multiple launchers to it, and move it around as a whole ?
[05:40] <numan> maybe it is disabled by default to vga card also present on system
[05:40] <daedra> !ncmpc
[05:40] <Ali_ix> snuman: you ned to change settings on you motherboard setup to start with onboard vga
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ncmpc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <nazo029A> numan: I know for sure there are various boot options when u start up the ubuntu disk, hit one of the f keys (sorry i cant remember which one) and youll see the options, there will be something there about safeloading or something. IF that doesnt work, try installing the "alternative" ubuntu cd, which doesnt give you a graphical anything, then when its installed, do a sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:40] <daedra> !info ncmpc
[05:41] <Panzer_> dragon52225: there are drivers.  But I would get on something linux native
[05:41] <Decadent> I've installed vmware according to the howto that I found in ubuntu forum but it didn't work so I unistalled it using synaptic. But when i tried to install vmware workstation it gave me an error saying that vmware is installed
[05:41] <b33j0r> daedra: that script helped me get on! thanks!
[05:41] <ubotu> ncmpc: text based audio player. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11.1+svn-r3362-1 (edgy), package size 75 kB, installed size 332 kB
[05:41] <Decadent> how can i unistall it??
[05:41] <Ali_ix> numan: the priority is set to start with pcie/agp slot first
[05:41] <daedra> b33j0r: cool! nice to know
[05:41] <famir> Hi,
[05:41] <jordilin> anyone knows when will be released the stable version of Feisty Fawn?
[05:41] <imc_> Hey, Pici, one more thing - I can't seem to find the process. It's not as simple as being called 'invest' is it?
[05:42] <elementz> guys what is the difference between apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade?
[05:42] <SlimeyPete> jordilin: April 19th
[05:42] <nazo029A> April sometime they say
[05:42] <Strider149> Can I get someone with good experience to help me recover my Edgy Eft System
[05:42] <daedra> ncmpc IS sexy
[05:42] <numan> yes i selected pci for vga but nothing happens
[05:42] <jordilin> thanks, guys
[05:42] <SlimeyPete> elementz: update downloads a new list of packages, dist-ugprade upgrades packages.
[05:42] <nazo029A> Anyone know if thats the date for studio too?
[05:42] <daedra> anyone use text based audi players?
[05:43] <dragon52225> isn't studio just ubuntu with different default packages?
[05:43] <elementz> SlimeyPete, sry I meant apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:43] <Mgccl> looks like install ubuntu destroyed my partition table... how can I recovery it? QTpart says  Can't have overlapping partitions.
[05:43] <imc_> Pici, never mind - an ol ps aux | grep invest revealed all
[05:43] <daedra> *audio

[05:44] <nazo029A> wasnt too bad actually

[05:44] <Strider149> OK thanks daedra. I'll try that.
[05:44] <elementz> SlimeyPete, ? still there?
[05:44] <SlimeyPete> elementz: dist-upgrade is designed for upgrading to an entirely new release of ubuntu/debian, but you can just use it as a general upgrade tool anyway - I do.
[05:44] <famir> Help! im using wlan, and from some reason im not able to addreess hostnames like "www.foo.org" but if im addressing the ip it works. with normal lan there is no problam!
[05:44] <SlimeyPete> elementz: I haven't noticed any difference in practice.
[05:45] <elementz> SlimeyPete, thx man
[05:45] <SlimeyPete> famir: set your dns server in the network manager
[05:45] <cracjan> famir: how come ?
[05:46] <cracjan> famir: its DNS issue..
[05:46] <MxGX> Hi... i want to install XGL and Beryl ... but the console show an error in DVB (digital Vidfeo Broadcasting)... i need help...
[05:46] <famir> SlimeyPete: but if im pinging to www.foo.com i can resolve the ip
[05:46] <famir> i dont think this is the issue
[05:46] <IMYojimbo> hi, anyone playing WoW?
[05:47] <daedra> famir: http://www.opendns.com/start/unix.php
[05:47] <famir> IMYojimbo: yes
[05:47] <SlimeyPete> famir: oh right. That's odd... check your firewall settings, if you have any?
[05:47] <sebas_> hi
[05:47] <yell0w> folks, any idea for mmorpg on ubuntu ?
[05:48] <famir> SlimeyPete: any idea where to start ?
[05:48] <dragon52225> Thanks everyone who helped me.  THe alt CD seems to be working fine so far!
[05:48] <Pici> dragon52225: Glad to hear it
[05:48] <daedra> iptables
[05:48] <MxGX> Hello... i'm from Brazil and i installed Ubuntu 6.10... but i'm trying to install XGL and Beryl but the console show an error ins DVB (digital video broadcasting) ... someone help me PLEASE ! =)
[05:48] <SlimeyPete> famir: do a "sudo iptables -L" in a terminal, see if anything's listed.
[05:48] <dragon52225> By the way, when is the final release of feisty fawn?
[05:48] <dragon52225> I heard April 19th?
[05:48] <Ali_ix> yeah
[05:49] <SlimeyPete> famir: if anything's there then you have a firewall running
[05:49] <Strider149> daedra that seems to require a complete configuration of my Graphics Hardware?
[05:49] <sebas_> i think it's scheduled for 14 april
[05:49] <SlimeyPete> dragon52225: yes, 19th
[05:49] <dragon52225> Is there an upgrade path from the beta to final?
[05:49] <yell0w> hey folks, any idea for a  mmorpg on ubuntu ?
[05:49] <Panzer_> you should be able to do the dist-upgrade
[05:49] <dragon52225> Ah ok
[05:49] <SlimeyPete> dragon52225: just dist-upgrading via synaptic/adept/apt-get should work, AFAIK
[05:49] <dragon52225> MMORPG on ubuntu?  just find any linux mmorpg :D
[05:50] <yell0w> dragon52225, i don't know any
[05:50] <famir> SlimeyPete: does ubuntu has firewall ?
[05:50] <Pici> !firewall | famir
[05:50] <ubotu> famir: 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).
[05:50] <nazo029A> try happypenguin.org - a sweet linux gaming resource
[05:50] <sebas_> famir, you can install firestarter
[05:50] <SlimeyPete> famir: yes. The standard Linux firewall is called iptables, and there are GUI front-ends to it (e.g. Firestart)
[05:50] <Strider149> Gnome does get to the logon screen and attempts to start but a HAL Initialization failed window pops up and stops the start process
[05:50] <SlimeyPete> *Firestarter
[05:50] <dragon52225> yell0w: well...   im learning to work with irrlicht and two of my friends and I are working on a smaller 2d mmorpg....
[05:51] <IMYojimbo> mmrpg rocks!
[05:51] <dragon52225> It use to be in PHP/AJAX, but that limited graphics too much
[05:51] <dragon52225> Only bad part is users need to download =\
[05:51] <yell0w> nazo029A, i did + gamespy + .....
[05:51] <Toxygene> Anyone know why, when I run 'lpr -P printer -# 3 -o Collate=True < 3_page_document' I get (1, 2, 3) instead of (1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3)?
[05:51] <dragon52225> just get java and play like runescape lol
[05:53] <famir> SlimeyPete: 10x
[05:53] <yell0w> dragon52225, that's browser based ?
[05:53] <cracjan> hey.. any easy way to install sun java on ubuntu along with firefox plugin ?
[05:53] <sebas_> cracjan: automatix or easyubuntu
[05:53] <dragon52225> Yes
[05:53] <dragon52225> www.runescape.com is browser based java mmorpg
[05:54] <Pici> !automatix | cracjan sebas_
[05:54] <ubotu> cracjan sebas_: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:54] <dragon52225> all you need is the Java Runtime
[05:54] <sebas_> ok
[05:54] <dyrne> yell0w: some nice games: tremulous (fps strategy online), wesnoth (rts fantasy), enemy territory (WWII type fps online)
[05:54] <nazo029A> Yellow: Try searching for Stendhal, its an mmorpg which looks like Zelda on the snes. Quite pretty if gaming is your thing
[05:55] <Strider149> S O M E B O D Y   P L E A S E   H E L P  !!!!
[05:55] <dyrne> yell0w: actually wesnoth is turned based
[05:55] <Mgccl> what can I do if there is overlapping partition, gparted can do nothing about it
[05:55] <Ali_ix> Strider149: what is problem?
[05:55] <sebas_> does anyone know how many ubuntu users there are?
[05:55] <yell0w> dyrne, i tried it, but it's straegy, i'mlooking for rpg
[05:56] <cracjan> dragon52225: can i install sun java using synaptic ?..
[05:56] <Ribs> sebas_, about six million
[05:56] <yell0w> dyrne, something like runescape, but not browser - based
[05:56] <yell0w> or java
[05:56] <cyris> anyone have an idea as to why files on my samba shares are opening in read-only when i have write access ?
[05:56] <yell0w> ;(
[05:56] <Ali_ix> sebas_: i tink at least 1032 people :
[05:56] <nazo029A> Yellow: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open_source_games is a good list too
[05:57] <Strider149> An update I made this morning is crashing Gnome.
[05:57] <yell0w> thanks nazo029A
[05:57] <nazo029A> yellow: your welcome
[05:57] <StucKman> hi all. where are there xorg's documentation files? I'm looking for README.ati
[05:57] <StucKman> I tried to look them for with apt-file, but couldn't finde them
[05:58] <Ali_ix> StucKman: what do you need from ati read me?
[05:58] <nazo029A> Stuckman: If they are installed, have you tried doing a  "locate xorg"
[05:58] <Ali_ix> StucKman: try locate <filename>
[05:58] <Cosmo_> I am on a Averatec c3500, my toucpad is working fine but I can't get my USB logitec optical mouse to work, the light is on but it doesn't respond I have tried adding noapic irqpoll pci=routeirq and unchecked use legacy usb in the bios but none of that seems to have any effect
[05:58] <nazo029A> /usr/share/doc is where mine are
[05:58] <StucKman> Ali_ix: I don't have it installed
[05:59] <yell0w> dyrne, nazo029A i'm gonna check crossfire and stendhal
[05:59] <StucKman> Ali_ix: I nedd to know if certain video card is supported
[05:59] <aaroncampbell> I'm going to be making a shared storage area for all the windows boxes on our network.  Would it be good practice to make a new user, and share its home directory with everyone?
[05:59] <nazo029A> yellow: Nice choices :)
[05:59] <Ali_ix> StucKman: i advice you to google it! easier and faster to find readme file ;)
[06:00] <StucKman> Ali_ix: duh, right. stupid me
[06:00] <Ali_ix> StucKman: if you have any ati vga, you need fglrx drivers to work
[06:00] <Ali_ix> StucKman: check "fglrx"
[06:01] <StucKman> Ali_ix: here we use free soft only
[06:01] <yell0w> nazo029A, stendhal reminds me of south park, lol
[06:01] <Panzer_> aaroncampbell:  I would make a folder
[06:01] <Ali_ix> StucKman: fglrx is free, isnt it?
[06:01] <Panzer_> adn then setup samba to just share out that folder
[06:02] <StucKman> Ali_ix: afaik it isn't? gotta check again
[06:02] <Ali_ix> StucKman: i though it is atleast free (if it isnt under gpl or ..). thnx
[06:03] <StucKman> Ali_ix: it's in restricted
[06:03] <RoundyT1> 0003 = file permission of 774 correct?
[06:03] <StucKman> so it's not free-as-in-freedom
[06:03] <Ali_ix> StucKman: thnx for info ;)
[06:05] <nightsun> This might be a dumb question, but when I download the latest kernel from kernel.org is it called "patch-2.6.20" instead of kernel-2.6.20?
[06:06] <Epic720> which desktop environment is the best? Ubuntu, Kubuntu, or Xubuntu?
[06:06] <nightsun> oops. I mean why is it called patch-2.6.20?
[06:06] <NBX[ubuntu] > "C compiler cannot create executables" - what should i do?
[06:06] <Lunar_Lamp> nightsun, you downloaded the wrong thing I would presume.
[06:06] <Cosmo_> I personally prefer kubuntu
[06:06] <Pici> !build-essential | NBX[ubuntu] 
[06:06] <ubotu> NBX[ubuntu] : Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:06] <Epic720> Cosmo_: why?
[06:07] <nightsun> NBX, hmm, okay thanks. I'll take another look around.
[06:07] <ardchoille> Why doesn't Ubuntu enable the multiverse and universe repos by default? They are "official" aren't they?
[06:07] <nazo029A> Epic720: Your best bet would be tp try em all out, some are bloated, some are more configureable, and some are more lightweight, my favorite is Kubuntu (KDE) becuase I can do a lot with it at is, but I find it buggy
[06:07] <NBX[ubuntu] > nightsun?
[06:08] <Pici> ardchoille: Because the software contained in them are not maintained by Canonical
[06:08] <nazo029A> because the other repos are unsupported "community ran" software
[06:08] <Cosmo_> Epic720, I find it extremly customizable and a little more intuitave
[06:08] <ardchoille> Pici: Ah, makes sense.
[06:08] <ep2011> Is there a way to edit files on the HD with the liveCD? My ubuntu is locking up - even with recovery
[06:08] <Epic720> nazo029A: I am running a server, which would be the most configurable and one with the least maintenance? In your opinion.
[06:08] <jordilin> ardchoille: universe, if I'm not wrong is installed by default in the next release Feisty Fawn
[06:08] <RoundyT1> 0003 = file permission of 774 correct?---------------?
[06:09] <ardchoille> Epic720: Some of us use a window manager rather than a full desktop. I like WindowMaker.
[06:09] <ardchoille> jordilin: That's cool :)
[06:09] <SlimeyPete> ep2011: check in /mnt and /media - has it automounted your HD? If not, you can probably mount it somewhere
[06:09] <nazo029A> Epic: Gnome, would be much easier for less maintenence, but its not too configurable
[06:09] <_wraith_> does anyone know of any apps to write a good resume under linux?
[06:09] <nazo029A> Epic: I also found it more stable
[06:10] <_wraith_> like a resum writer wizard type thing?
[06:10] <Epic720> nazo029A: I ran gnome previously, but was having major troubles getting mysql and php to work with apache, so i reinstalled.
[06:10] <frojnd>  I have one difficult question. How can I know what drivers are linked do xorg.conf, cause I've installed drivers from nvidia official web page, and than backup the xorg and after that I've installed nvidia-glx package. But I am not sure, that nvida-glx drivers are in used. So how can I check if there are nvida-glx drivers in use or drivers from nvidia web page ????
[06:10] <ardchoille> _wraith_: You might see if openoffice writer has a resume template.
[06:10] <Epic720> nazo029A: I liked gnome, but I wanted to get some other opinions before I reintstalled it.
[06:11] <SlimeyPete> frojnd: look at the "device" section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:11] <nazo029A> Epic: Did you try a lamp buiild? Like xampp
[06:11] <apokryphos> Epic720: try out KDE too
[06:11] <SlimeyPete> frojnd: if it says "nv" then you're using the non-nvidia drivers.
[06:11] <nazo029A> !lamp | Epic720
[06:11] <ubotu> Epic720: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[06:11] <SlimeyPete> frojnd: whereas "nvidia" indicates the nvidia drivers
[06:11] <_wraith_> ardchoille, nope, it doesn't i don't think
[06:11] <Epic720> nazo029A: I installed from the server disk and chose the lamp installation option, but it doesn't install any of the software.
[06:11] <ep2011> is there any reason to wait for feisty to come out if i need a reinstall? can't i just install beta and then upgrade?
[06:12] <SlimeyPete> you can, yes.
[06:12] <nazo029A> Epic720: Ive had a xampp installation running on GNome before very nicley, search xampp in google and ull find it, its very easy to install and use
[06:12] <SlimeyPete> just be aware that feisty isn't quite finished yet so you may experience bugs ;)
[06:12] <frojnd> SlimeyPete: I know this... it was nvida when there was nvidia drivers from their page and now (even I am not sure now are nvidia-glx drivers in use)  so any better suggestions
[06:12] <Epic720> apokryphos: KDE, that would be kubuntu, correct?
[06:12] <Bonez56> fiesty = FTW
[06:12] <ardchoille> _wraith_: There used to be a site where you can download new oo.o templates, I'm looking for it..
[06:12] <apokryphos> Epic720: yes; easy enough to install. See the FAQ
[06:12] <Epic720> nazo029A: I will search xampp, thank you.
[06:12] <nazo029A> EPic720: your welcome
[06:13] <_wraith_> ardchoille, found it, nevermind!
[06:13] <_wraith_> thanks!
[06:13] <SlimeyPete> frojnd: if the device section says "nvidia" and XOrg hasn't crashed then you're using the official NVidia drivers
[06:13] <ep2011> is the fiesty cd the same as edgy in the sense of installing? Like can you resize partitions, etc
[06:13] <ardchoille> _wraith_: Where?
[06:13] <_wraith_> it was in the templates
[06:13] <_wraith_> :P
[06:14] <SlimeyPete> ep2011: ask in #ubuntu+1 , lots of feisty users there
[06:14] <_wraith_> the only tab i didn't look at
[06:14] <ardchoille> lol
[06:14] <frojnd> SlimeyPete: yes it's "nvidia"  and how can I use nvidia-glx official drivers??
[06:14] <SlimeyPete> (me, for instance, but I installed using the Alternate CD)
[06:14] <ep2011> okay SlimeyPete
[06:14] <deCon> can anyone help me with some advanced UPnP Media w/ Nokia connection?
[06:14] <SlimeyPete> frojnd: if it's "nvidia" then you *are* using nvidia-glx official drivers.
[06:15] <frojnd> SlimeyPete: even though that before  I was using nvidia drivers downloaded from their web page?
[06:15] <mwtb> Hi. I've got an Edgy server install up and running as a mail-server. I've followed a guide that sets up virtual domains with mailboxes accessible via squirrelmail and that's all fine. The only problem I have is that I want the local mailboxes to be under the same system. How would I go about doing this?
[06:15] <matej> which program can i use to see temprature in my computer =?
[06:15] <SlimeyPete> frojnd: yeah... the nvidia-glx package should have overwritten those.
[06:16] <deCon> I would like to connect my nokia cell to a UPnP arch., anyone know about this?
[06:16] <chili5555> matej: gkrellm
[06:16] <frojnd> SlimeyPete: tnx
[06:16] <nazo029A> matej: Theres one called gkrelim or gtkrelim i think,
[06:16] <matej> chili5555, is this for gnome?
[06:16] <pet2> Hi, can someone tell me if the 7.04 beta is stable enough yet to install?>
[06:16] <vignesh> Hey...

[06:25] <mark__> SlimeyPete: what can i do?
[06:25] <ardchoille> kylecasey: Depending on the type of theme, you need to unpack it and copy the theme to a directory. Which theme are you interested in?
[06:26] <nazo029A> Epic720: Then do a sudo apt-get update then try again, other than that im not sure
[06:26] <SlimeyPete> mark__: you can use the nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-legacy drivers from Synaptic, or "roll your own" using the official NVida installer (from their website)
[06:26] <Epic720> nazo029A: how can I access sources.list from command line?
[06:26] <aimee> pici: ekiga....not exiga correct

[06:27] <polly1> Hello anyone here use evolution for email?
[06:27] <emet> do they drink ubuntu in the congo?
[06:27] <chili5555> matej : gkrellm - press F1 to configure??

[06:28] <SlimeyPete> mark__: you can apt-get from the terminal. For instance, do a "apt-cache search nvidia" to find nvidia packages and then "sudo apt-get install <package name>"
[06:28] <matej> chili5555, yes but in temp section i have position option - enter which number ?
[06:28] <SlimeyPete> mark__: if you need to access the nvidia website, do a "sudo apt-get install links-ssl", then run links - it's a text-mode web browser
[06:28] <kylecasey> yeah arcdchoille thats the page the themes
[06:28] <polly1> Anyone know how to set evolution to show images in the body of an email?
[06:28] <kylecasey> i just dont know how to config them the way i want
[06:29] <ardchoille> kylecasey: Ok, that is a gdm theme. I can help you install it if you need help.
[06:29] <Strider149>  I keep getting HAL Failed to initialize and a repeating login sequence can anybody please help?
[06:29] <Epic720> nazo029A: I edited sources and uncommented the universe repos, but it still doesn't find kde
[06:29] <kylecasey> ok arcdchoille that would be great
[06:29] <uid000> ?
[06:29] <mark__> SlimeyPete: do you now what i can search for to get the mouse cursor to work in the terminal?
[06:29] <vignesh> anyone used the ubuntu vmware image ?
[06:29] <SlimeyPete> mark__: not sure, sorry. I have not needed to do that before.
[06:29] <Strider149>  I keep getting HAL Failed to initialize and a repeating login sequence can anybody please help?
[06:29] <nazo029A> Epic720: have you sudo apt-get update | sudo apt-get upgrade at all?
[06:30] <Epic720> nazo029A: yes, both
[06:30] <mark__> SlimeyPete: oh ok
[06:30] <chili5555> matej: in mine, i just select sensors, temps and CPU, looks right to me...43C on my laptop
[06:30] <ardchoille> kylecasey: Open System -> Administratin -> Login Window. When that window opens, you'll see a button on the right side marked "Add...", click that and browse to the locatio of the new theme, then click install.
[06:31] <Epic720> nazo029A: do I need to be connected to the internet? I set up a static IP and I am not sure if I have connectivity.
[06:31] <nazo029A> Epic720: im afraid im a little stuck, are you sure you have internet connectivity on that machine
[06:31] <matej> chili5555, i have 20 C .. this dont looks good :)
[06:31] <iarwain> hi, anyone know how to get video with vlc? (got sound, but no video to be seen)
[06:31] <genjix> Epic720, you're such a retard
[06:31] <ardchoille> kylecasey: Once that new theme is in the list, you will need to click the readio button next to it for it to be chosen. then you're done. Also, most people just unpack gdm themes and see how they're made, then use that info to make their own.
[06:31] <genjix> can't you figure it out?
[06:31] <Strider149>  I keep getting HAL Failed to initialize and a repeating login sequence can anybody please help?
[06:31] <nazo029A> Epic720: hehe yeah, the internet would be a good idea, becuase apt-get connects to servers to download packages
[06:31] <Epic720> nazo029A: how can I check to see if I have connectivity?
[06:31] <PenguiFox> Hi everybody!
[06:31] <benjb0> Hi all
[06:31] <iarwain> Epic720: ping www.google.com
[06:32] <iarwain> PenguiFox: hi, benjb0 hi therre =)
[06:32] <Toxygene> I swear, printing in linux is defective by design

[06:32] <IMYojimbo> how do i know what 0x65 is on keyboard ?
[06:32] <Epic720> nazo029A: how do I reconfigure my eth0 to dynamically get an IP, I don't have connectivity
[06:32] <chili5555> matej: u might look at lm-sensors, but its a bit tough to get configured, another option is look at hardware monitoring in bios and try to match with the adjustments in gkrellm
[06:33] <nazo029A> Epic720: Not to sure on that one im afraid, does anyone know?
[06:33] <benjb0> i'm new to irc. what is going here mainly?
[06:33] <PenguiFox> Epic720: Network settings > Eth0 > Dynamic IP
[06:33] <nazo029A> Epic720: from cli not gui
[06:33] <SlimeyPete> benjb0: this is a support channel for Ubuntu.
[06:33] <XiXaQ> How can I run a dynamic dns service like dyndns and no-ip?

[06:36] <Epic720> nazo029A: I am looking that up, but I can't figure out how to release the static IP.
[06:36] <jrib> XiXaQ: I use ddclient to update dyndns
[06:37] <kylecasey> yeah ardchoille i just found it so now just select it and exit right?
[06:37] <ardchoille> kylecasey: You need to tick the radio button next to the theme and then exit.
[06:37] <nazo029A> Does anyone here know how to configure an eth0 for DHCP from the line?
[06:37] <Cosmo_> I am on a Averatec c3500, my toucpad is working fine but I can't get my USB logitec optical mouse to work, the light is on but it doesn't respond I have tried adding noapic irqpoll pci=routeirq on te grub boot and unchecked use legacy usb in the bios but none of that seems to have any effect

[06:57] <ardchoille> "setup"?
[06:57] <benjb0> ardchoille, there is no relevant options for that!

[06:58] <ardchoille> kylecasey: I don't have that app installed on this machine, but iirc you are looking at the stuff on art.gnome.org, you need to click a button or menu entry to download and install the theme or wallpaper you want to use.
, the problem occurs if the mp3 is 192kbps. For 320kbps , there is no problem
[06:58] <ardchoille> benjb0: Oh, I don't know. is the song corrupted?
[06:59] <jrib> Usher: google for "bash color prompt"  and teh blue background you can do in the preferences for gnome-terminal
[06:59] <kylecasey> ok thanks though ardchoille
[06:59] <benjb0> ardchoille, no. I could play it smoothly in winamp!
[06:59] <TFrog> anyone here have a laptop with the ATI 200M chipset and using the latest ATI drivers?
[06:59] <ardchoille> benjb0: No idea then :(
[07:00] <ardchoille> kylecasey: It's kinda like a browser, you do't really have all those themes, you need to install them from that gui.
[07:00] <Zaggynl> Why do I have to reinstall my nvidia drivers everytime there is an x-window-system update?
[07:00] <benjb0> its ok ardchoille. I'll check it in the forum! :)
[07:00] <ardchoille> benjb0: Good idea
[07:01] <Usher> jrib- What about the way the Window looks, with the Green and also the fonts used in the window - I like the smooth look of it, sharp and clean compared to the sharp/clean/classic nerd look of GNOME :)
[07:01] <ep2011> whats a good prog in windows to burn the ubuntu image with?
[07:01] <Usher> TFrog- I think my laptop has that card
[07:01] <Stormx2> !burn | ep2011
[07:01] <ubotu> ep2011: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[07:02] <jrib> Usher: hmm you'll have to figure out what theme and font was being used (I can't tell by looking at it).  It may be best to contact the author of the image
[07:02] <Usher> TFrog- ATI 200M .. i think thats what it has, compaq with winxp, used to have linux on it, but i needed the extra space for my computer science class and had to take linux off
[07:02] <Usher> jrib- so it is possible to make linux look like that without too much trouble?
[07:03] <dyrne> Zaggynl: did you install nvidia drivers from repos or use the nvidia.sh ?
[07:03] <TFrog> shame. i just reported a bug to ATI about their driver hanging on shutdown with Feisty and requested they drop the composite memory requirement
[07:03] <Zaggynl> dyrne,  using the envy package

[07:04] <louish> Hi all.  I have a SD Card that was plugged into my laptop and was removed with the "safely remove" clicked.  Now I don't see any files on the card at all.  It's 2GB's an it's still showing the 1.8GB are used.  Is there a way I can get the data back?  I tried dd to a file.img and mounted it, but it still shows no files, and used space is still showing 1.8GB out of 2.0 GB's.
[07:04] <Usher> ardchoille: Yeah, I like GNOME but I just don't know about the Orangeness of Ubuntu's Default theme... its not ugly.. its just too much orange going on
[07:04] <TFrog> christ 90% of the laptops made with the 200M have dedicated ram
[07:04] <dyrne> Zaggynl: any time there is a kernel update you should have to reinstall if you use the nvidia.sh isntaller or i guess envy.  this isnt something that happens every time you reboot right?
[07:05] <sioux> ardchoille: sioux is my nik but has i never registered now some do it and I can not speak anymore on my ubuntu/it channel
[07:05] <Zaggynl> dyrne, nope, only after I update x-window system

[07:06] <Usher> ardchoille: Thanks!
[07:06] <dyrne> Zaggynl: no real solution i think other than using the nvidia-glx package instead.  i prefer the manual install but..

[07:07] <mikebeecham> hi there,. can someone please tell me why I have one screensaver playing within another screensaver?
[07:07] <Pici> louish: Any hiden files on the card?
[07:07] <Tjoels> When i try to change the tags of my music in Amarok, it sometimes says that i can't do it. Can this be because the permissions of the music files are wrong?
[07:07] <chili5555> ! fr
[07:07] <louish> Pici, none that I can see.  no.

[07:12] <mark__> Zaggynl: i have an old dell 9100 that works great
[07:12] <dyrne> mark__: did this happen after a update or just a reboot or what?
[07:12] <trycon> i have a question ... i installed ubuntu and tried to send my atheros card into monitor mode... but if i enter: airmon-ng start wifi0 it just shows me my centrino card on eth1 and my atheros card on ath0 it don creat the monitor

[07:12] <root_> this is about LVM, i got problems with lvm, and i need to find ways to fix it, but im unsure where the VG is, the path to it i mean.
[07:12] <mark__> Zaggynl: this gateway im on now, doesnt like beryl,but works fine
[07:12] <root_> where is the path to my VG?

[07:13] <chupachichi> hello everybody
[07:13] <dyrne> mark__: sounds like you install linux-restricted-modules yes?
[07:13] <pilgrim> Does feisty have beryl by default?
[07:13] <trycon> anyone read me question ? :o
[07:13] <mark__> dyrne: i installd nvidia-glx
[07:13] <ardchoille> pilgrim: no
[07:13] <pilgrim> ardchoille, :(
[07:14] <chupachichi> I need help.I can't mount with ntfs-3g
[07:14] <mon^rch> pilgrim: it has compiz by default... just as good as beryl :)
[07:14] <pilgrim> mon^rch, oh ok
[07:14] <dyrne> mark__: do this 'grep DISABLED_MODULES /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common' nvidia or nv show up?
[07:14] <Usher> Does anybody know if Feisty transfers documents, pictures, and music from WinXP or just Browser Favorites?
[07:14] <pilgrim> mon^rch, for some reason I thought compiz is for KDE
[07:14] <predaeus> mark__, have you installed restricted-modules aswell?
[07:15] <mark__> predaeus: i dont think so
[07:15] <famir> any one nows who to " flushdns " in ubuntu
[07:15] <predaeus> mark__, the linux-restricted-modules or what exactly the package is called contains the nvidia kernel driver, the nvidia-glx package contains the part for the X server as far as I know. You need both.
[07:15] <mon^rch> chupachichi: readthis: CAREFULLY (choose the easy way) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/
[07:15] <frankgrimes> I can't get into gnome-keyring-manager with my sudo password, does anyone know how I can fix this?
[07:16] <predaeus> !nvidia > mark__
[07:16] <mark__> predaeus: oh ok, so what should i do from here then?
[07:17] <chupachichi> mon^rch, no very useful
[07:17] <mon^rch> chupachichi: goto that page and try the "automatic configuration" works like a charm
[07:17] <chupachichi> no work
[07:17] <famir> any one nows who to " flushdns " in ubuntu ???
[07:17] <mark__> dyrne: ok i did the grep thing
[07:17] <frankgrimes> how can I delete my keyring password?
[07:18] <mon^rch> chupachichi: sure worked like a charm for me :)
[07:18] <Cosmo_> I am trying to rescue some information from windows for my mother on her laptop, I made a partition for ubuntu and installed it and followed the guides on the forum to mount the windows partition but I can not seem to find the windows files, I'm trying to find them so I can move them to another drive on the network
[07:18] <chupachichi> I get an error on fusermount...
[07:18] <mark__> predaeus: how can i get the nvidia kernel module working again?
[07:18] <dyrne> mark__: anything show up "nv" or whatever?  i was under the impression it was working until you reboot the computer. you might just have a setup issue if thats the case id follow the instructions again
[07:19] <mark__> dyrne: it was working before the restart
[07:19] <w|nE^SparC^> chupachichi where are you from?
[07:19] <chupachichi> From Argentina
[07:19] <dyrne> mark__: did DISABLED_MODULES="nv" show up or anything when you grep'd?
[07:19] <mark__> no
[07:20] <dyrne> hrm
[07:20] <mark__> dyrne: wait...
[07:20] <mark__> dyrne: i remember seeing that line in a file i tweeked earlier
[07:20] <mark__> it was a file for disabling modules
[07:21] <dyrne> mark__: there should be a step by step one sec.
[07:21] <mark__> dyrne: ok
[07:21] <w|nE^SparC^> somebody knows the rhinefet.o ?
[07:21] <dyrne> mark__: my preoblem was with restricted modules i did this basically to solve it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/Live/Feisty+/Hardware/Video_Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29
[07:22] <trycon> i have a question ... i installed ubuntu and tried to send my atheros card into monitor mode... but if i enter: airmon-ng start wifi0 it just shows me my centrino card on eth1 and my atheros card on ath0 it don creat the monitor

[07:25] <ardchoille> aricz: dpkg --get-selections ?
[07:25] <Jian> that would be great if you can let me know how to fix it :)
[07:25] <mon^rch> chupachichi: type /nickserv register (password) to be able to use private chats :)

[07:27] <tsikis> just clearing that i tried that
[07:28] <ubuntuEdgy> hi guys when i log on my pc i now get this , Your $HOME/dmrc file has incorrect permissions and is being ignored
[07:28] <bobbob1016> tsikis, is it an HD video, or normal quality
[07:28] <tsikis> normal quality
[07:29] <ubuntuEdgy> i have done sudo chmod 777 home
[07:29] <ubuntuEdgy> sudo chmod 77 /home
[07:29] <ardchoille> ubuntuEdgy: On Dapper, the ~/.dmrc file is chmod'd 600
[07:29] <Matic`Makovec> So...as I see this vent thing not working really, does anyone have an idea if there's some alternative program that can connect to vent and actually work as intended?
[07:29] <ubuntuEdgy> so it should be sudo chmod 600 /home ?
[07:30] <bobbob1016> tsikis, try ubuntuguide.org
[07:30] <ardchoille> ubuntuEdgy: No
[07:30] <ubuntuEdgy> what then ? :(
[07:30] <bobbob1016> tsikis, I'm looking for the specific part now
[07:30] <GNu_Joe> Have Fisty installed on a x86_64 how can I tell if I'm running a 64 or 32 bit kernel
[07:30] <ardchoille> ubuntuEdgy: That will lock your user out of its $HOME
[07:30] <sam000> when I try to run some games the screen just flashes and then nothing happens
[07:31] <bobbob1016> tsikis, try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#Multimedia_Players_.26_Browser_Plug-ins
[07:31] <GNu_Joe> Package says "linux-image-2.6.20-14-lowlatency - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.20 on x86/x86_64" which is it 32 or 64?
[07:31] <tsikis> ok thanks because i've trying 2 days now googling and .... but all i got working is VLC until buffer....
[07:31] <ardchoille> ubuntuEdgy: chmod 600 ~/.dmrc   (no sudo)
[07:31] <frank227a> Hello... Anyone know how I can make gaim auto start when I boot my machine?
[07:31] <bobbob1016> tsikis, try the WMV9 part more specifically
[07:31] <tsikis> ok
[07:31] <sam000> frank go to system preferences sesseions
[07:31] <Pici> frank227a: Check the session menu item under preferences for startup programs
[07:32] <ubuntuEdgy> This is one reason Linux will never catch on,it f**ks its self up
[07:32] <bobbob1016> ubuntuEdgy, I've seen windows do that more than ubuntu, to be honest
[07:33] <Riality> ;)
[07:33] <sam000> when I try to run some games the screen just flashes and then nothing happens
[07:33] <GNu_Joe> how can you tell if your running a 64 or 32 bit kernel?
[07:33] <ardchoille> ubuntulog: No it doesn't, it's human error.
[07:33] <ardchoille> ubuntulog: Sorry, wrong nick.
[07:33] <tomy-dsd> hi how do i remove bind i do sudo aptitude remove bind
[07:33] <bobbob1016> lol, he likes getting the last word
[07:33] <tomy-dsd> then the files are still there
[07:34] <Usher> Has anybody used Tomboy before? the times that I've tried to use it for notetaking it seemed difficult to use for taking notes in class
[07:34] <Usher> I wasn't quick enough with clicking and filling it and making the links
[07:34] <ardchoille> Usher: I do't use it, used to, but I'll admit that it has improved.
[07:35] <GNu_Joe> is there something I need to pass on the kernel line in grub to boot to a 64bit kernel, since there is no more amd64 kernels for fisty?
[07:35] <orangefly> anyone mess with jabber server....???....i'm having trouble configuring it....

[07:35] <tomy-dsd> hi how do i remove bind i do sudo aptitude remove bind
[07:35] <tomy-dsd> then the files are still there
[07:36] <Usher> you know what I mean though? they say it's wiki style.. but when you are in class and taking notes as fast as you can.. its not very smooth when creating 'links' to new note windows and making bold and underlines and all kind of confusing stuff going on all at once while still trying to take the notes, haha - but I could just be a noob at using it
[07:36] <dyrne> GNu_Joe: im sure there is still a feisty 64 bit but are you talking about a 32bit install and wanting to use a 64bit kernel?
[07:37] <GNu_Joe> dyrne, used the 64bit install disk, but fisty updated the kernel and now I'm not sure what it's running at

[07:38] <bobbob1016> I'm trying to get ubuntu installed on a PC hooked up through VGA to my HDTV, in hopes of LinuxMCE-ing it, but the screen just flashes.  I'm thinking it is because the resolution is 1360x768@60hz.  I've tried some xorg modifying, but it didn't work, not sure if it is because it's a LiveCD or not, any ideas?  I know the card can do it, because the XP on it outputs 1360x768.
[07:38] <knoppix> IF YOU GET A GRUB ERROR HOW DO YOU FIX IT
[07:38] <theacolyte> GNu_Joe: you are running x64. Keep in mind that there is no difference between emt64 and amd64 in the kernel
[07:38] <mzanfardino> I had been searching for a solution in #kubuntu, but looking more closely at the description of the application I'm having trouble with I see I might want to be discussing it here.  I'm having trouble with a recent update for adept 3.4.  adpect-common refuses to update.

[07:38] <theacolyte> hehe
[07:38] <PriceChild> knoppix, what error is it?
[07:38] <yell0w> wooot!
[07:39] <Usher> bobbob1016: are you able to change the resolution?
[07:39] <yell0w> SRO rocks!
[07:39] <bobbob1016> Usher, I can't see gnome
[07:39] <ubermensch> I went to open a pdf file then ubuntu crashed. I rebooted now I am getting grub error 18! I have a feeling this is very bad
[07:39] <GNu_Joe> theacolyte, but the kernel package states "Linux kernel image for version 2.6.20 on x86/x86_64" how can it be both?
[07:39] <Usher> bobbob1016: um, why not?
[07:39] <predaeus> bobbob1016, did you try setting the resolution in X like 1360x768_60 instead of only the resolution?
[07:39] <bobbob1016> Usher, I just see it flashing on the screen
[07:40] <ubermensch> does anyone have any idea what I can do to try and fix this?
[07:40] <Usher> bobbob1016: on your HDTV screen or PC monitor
[07:40] <tag> Any projections on how long until feisty will be released?
[07:40] <chupachichi> somebody with problems mounting

[07:40] <riesseg_> gigeot. ++
[07:40] <hendaus> somebody help me!!
[07:41] <bobbob1016> Usher, not sure what you mean, it's an HDTV with VGA inputs, I use it as a screen for my XP that is on the computer in question now

[07:41] <xeQter> Hi
[07:41] <payan> !feisty
[07:41] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007. Beta is out! http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta Schedule: !schedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[07:41] <theacolyte> GNu_Joe: It can be both. I'd say trust me, but think about it like this, not EVERYTHING you will run will be 64 bit, although it could be  close. You will USE x64, however if you have an app that's 32 bit it'll need something to know how to run... dumbed down but it works
[07:41] <snama> what is the name of the off topic channel?
[07:41] <theacolyte> !offtopic | snama
[07:41] <xeQter> unsure
[07:41] <ubotu> snama: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[07:42] <Usher> bobbob1016: Oh, ok - I thought you were using a PC monitor to HDTV with the VGA adapter
[07:42] <hendaus> helpers i want help!
[07:42] <pari> I've got a problem: I have ubuntu 7.04 beta, and I'm trying to install nvidia drivers. The card is GF4 MX 440, so, as far as I know, I need nvidia-glx-legacy package.
[07:42] <ubermensch> predaeus: I don't know, It's a newer hDD that has given me no problems. I am thinking that when I opened that pdf and everything crashed, some sort of heap or memory corruption screwed up my root partition
[07:42] <tsikis> nope not working still vlc stops
[07:42] <theacolyte> !question > hendaus
[07:42] <PriceChild> pari, feisty in #ubuntu+1 feisty is not finished
[07:42] <ubuntuEdgy> can any one help me i still get Your "$HOME/dmrc file has incorrect permissions and is being ignored" when i log on.
[07:43] <Usher> bobbob1016: But you have installed LinuxMCE and it's not giving you anything but a flashing screen
[07:43] <hendaus> theacolyte, thanx if i want to creat a file into /home/ed2k.protocol, it says Access denied
[07:43] <pari> oh, sorry
[07:43] <hendaus> theacolyte,  what can i do,or how to creat a file on /home

[07:44] <ubermensch> predaeus: I read that grub 18 has to deal with a BIOS not liking the size of the hdd cylinders, is it possible for me to boot up on my ubuntu install disk and resize and reinstall my root partition with the kernel?
[07:44] <ardchoille> ubuntuEdgy: Did you chmod 600 ~/.dmrc  ?
[07:44] <knoppix> if you install windows but you dont have a windows cd  to install it can you cancel out of it

[07:45] <Ryan`> How can I reinstall the windows XP bootloader?
[07:45] <Ryan`> GRUB overwrote it, and I want to delete my linux partition.
[07:45] <predaeus> ubermensch, yea should be possible. But you will lose the root partition's data when resizing and moving. Might need to use other software to safe it. Or just reinstall.
[07:46] <theacolyte> stribika: are you trying to compile your own kernel?
[07:46] <predaeus> ubermensch, was that your first reboot?
[07:46] <bobbob1016> Usher, no, I have XP on it now, and I hope to put LinuxMCE on it
[07:46] <predaeus> ubermensch, after installation.
[07:46] <dyrne> Ryan`: fdisk /mbr  i believe. but id stick with grub even if no linux installed
[07:46] <stribika> theacolyte: yes
[07:46] <Ryan`> Wont grub break if I delete the partition with /boot on it?
[07:46] <bobbob1016> Usher, I booted the LiveCD to install Ubuntu
[07:46] <Ruisu> if i change my username and put it in the root group.. would it get rid of many permissions notifications?
[07:46] <ubermensch> predaeus: oh no no, I've had this install for nearly a year
[07:46] <dyrne> Ryan`: yeah youd have to install it to a small partition
[07:47] <Ruisu> I usually run in to many files/folders that i do not have permission to view
[07:47] <predaeus> ubermensch, but then this is really weird.
[07:47] <ubermensch> predaeus: I agree whole heartedly
[07:47] <stribika> erUSUL: it only works if .config support is on
[07:47] <dyrne> Ryan`: anyway from inside windows or win recovery disk fdisk /mbr should work
[07:47] <theacolyte> stribika: this may help a little, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[07:47] <stribika> thanks
[07:47] <ubermensch> predaeus: when I reboot now it just gives me a grub prompt
[07:47] <predaeus> ubermensch, yes, try mounting the root from a live cd and probably do some filesystem checks or so.
[07:47] <hendaus> theacolyte,  i have to add a a text file name: ed2k.protocol , it needs to be in the same folder where ending with .protocol
[07:47] <Luke> does anyone know what package "shutdown" "halt" or "reboot" belong to? I seem to have deleted it
[07:48] <Ruisu> anyone?
[07:48] <salty-horse> Luke, run this: dpkg -S `which shutdown`
[07:48] <dyrne> Luke: sure its just not your path messed up? locate shutdown | grep bin   maybe
[07:48] <theacolyte> hendausL I'm not sure what you are asking
[07:48] <knoppix> i downloaded the iso for slackware then i rebooted my computer and put the slackware cd in and then when i got out of slackware a grub error poped up and i didnt have windows anymore can someone help me
[07:48] <ubermensch> predaeus: I'll reboot now, be back later perhaps
[07:49] <theacolyte> knoppix: you are in the wrong channel
[07:49] <atluxity_> 
[07:49] <theacolyte> knoppix: please go to #slackware
[07:49] <theacolyte> heh
[07:49] <theacolyte> anyone else see the irony
[07:49] <kunwon1> lol!
[07:49] <theacolyte> someone named knoppix, in a channel for ubuntu, asking about slackware
[07:49] <Luke> salty-horse: that wont work because i've deleted it somehow
[07:49] <Luke> dyrne: yea not in there
[07:49] <predaeus> haha
[07:49] <ubuntuEdgy> ardchoille:yes it said it wanted 644 i even dont that too
[07:49] <hendaus> theacolyte, To have ed2k links work from Konqueror , You can find this directory by searching for file names ending with .protocol. To search run `find /usr -name "*.protocol"` or `find /opt -name "*.protocol"`. If you're not sure about the directory where KDE is installed you can even put / as search path
[07:49] <kunwon1> someone choosing slackware as their first linux distro o.O
[07:49] <payan> lol
[07:50] <frank227a> Is there a startup folder for gnome?  Something that I can set to autostart gaim when I log into my gnome desktop?
[07:50] <newbuntu> hello
[07:50] <salty-horse> Luke, dpkg -S /sbin/shutdown tells me its upstart-compat-sysv
[07:50] <ardchoille> ubuntuEdgy: Edgy may be differnet I guess, but it's 600 on Dapper.
[07:50] <Pici> frank227a: System>Preferences>Session should have a place where you can set startup programs
[07:50] <frank227a> Pici: Thank you.
[07:50] <ardchoille> salty-horse: sysvinit ?
[07:51] <Luke> salty-horse: thanks mate
[07:51] <ubuntuEdgy> ardchoille:still the same thing thou ,when i log on
[07:51] <salty-horse> ardchoille, i just answered Luke.. i don't know
[07:51] <GNu_Joe> theacolyte, thanks!
[07:51] <ardchoille> ubuntuEdgy: ls -la ~/.dmrc   and see who owns that file.
[07:51] <payan> ubuntuEdgy:give it away chmod 666
[07:52] <newbuntu> i screwed up my kernal with an update, now Iam using the live CD is there any way I can access my files on my harddrive by editting fstab or something?
[07:52] <cBau> got an external case?
[07:52] <cBau> plug it in usb to another box
[07:52] <Cosmo_> I am trying to rescue some information from windows for my mother on her laptop, I made a partition for ubuntu and installed it and followed the guides on the forum to mount the windows partition but I can not seem to find the windows files, I'm trying to find them so I can move them to another drive on the network
[07:52] <ubuntuEdgy> it says i do, -rw-r--r-- 1 "me me"
[07:53] <theacolyte> newbuntu: you could probably mount the drives with the live CD and make the changes manually. it'd be a bunch of work though
[07:53] <mikebeecham> Can anyone help me...for some reason my screensaver is going wierd...I have 1 screensaver playing inside another screensaver
[07:53] <newbuntu> thanks
[07:53] <ardchoille> mikebeecham:If you don't get an answer here, you might try: http://ubuntuforums.org/  That's a weird problem.
[07:54] <w|nE^SparC^> hey, the command wine comming with the ubuntu?
[07:54] <mikebeecham> ardchoille: Thanks mate
[07:54] <ardchoille> You're welcome :)
[07:54] <tavy1> hi
[07:55] <tavy1> i've got a problema installing ubuntu
[07:55] <tavy1> is anyone here that could help me?
[07:55] <ubuntuEdgy> brb
[07:55] <cBau> Cosmo_: you should be able to see and copy the files on the nfts (windows) partition without mounting, it should see them automatically
[07:55] <dyrne> w|nE^SparC^: i belive you still have to 'sudo apt-get install wine' if that is your question
[07:55] <cBau> what is the problem?
[07:55] <theacolyte> !anyone | tavy1
[07:55] <ubotu> tavy1: 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?
[07:55] <AlexSFBay> Has anyone tried playing Blu-ray or HD DVD discs in Ubuntu - instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD
[07:55] <rwxr-xr--> hm
[07:56] <hendaus> theacolyte,  did u got the message?
[07:56] <tavy1> cBau, it stucks in the installation proces and the last message i see is something linke: io scheduler registered (default)'
[07:56] <Cosmo_> hmmm maybe I'm looking in the wrong place where would I find it?
[07:56] <theacolyte> hendaus: yes, but I have absolutely no idea what you are doing. If you're trying to set up a specific piece of software, I'd suggest asking their developers instead of #ubuntu
[07:56] <cBau> how far into the install process?
[07:56] <tavy1> i just downloaded ubuntu 6.10
[07:56] <tavy1> i believe that at the begining
[07:57] <AlexSFBay> Has anyone tried playing Blu-ray or HD DVD discs in Ubuntu - instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD
[07:57] <cBau> I have never had a 6.10 freeze, not sure
[07:57] <cBau> sounds like HDD issue
[07:57] <cBau> to me
[07:57] <hendaus> theacolyte,  i want to configure on konqueror to support ed2k protocol
[07:57] <cBau> could be wrong
[07:57] <zbrown> Is there a tentative date for Ubuntu 7.04 to be released?
[07:57] <cBau> I don't know man, try try again :)
[07:57] <cBau> 19 April is what I hear
[07:57] <ardchoille> zbrown: April 19th
[07:57] <Pici> zbrown: 4/19
[07:57] <zbrown> ardchoille: thank you
[07:57] <tavy1> the computer is brand new, it came with Windows preinstalled, i've reinstalled windows and no problem ovccured....
[07:58] <cBau> yeah
[07:58] <zbrown> oooh ardchoille haven't seen you in a while...
[07:58] <tavy1> huh, ok, cBau, thx for tryoing to help
[07:58] <ubuntuEdgy> i still get that error :(
[07:58] <ardchoille> zbrown: :)
[07:58] <cBau> I just have a hard time visualizing where that is in the install
[07:58] <zbrown> ardchoille: how are you ?
[07:58] <AlexSFBay> Can one use a regular DVD drive to read UDF formatted Blu-ray and HD DVD discs?
[07:58] <ubuntuEdgy> no
[07:58] <cBau> sorry  I couldn't help Tavy, I gotta run fellas
[07:58] <cBau> have fun
[07:59] <AlexSFBay> UbuntuEdgy -- was that NO to me?
[07:59] <Cosmo_> now if I could just get this stupid USB mouse to work, I hate this damn touchpad
[07:59] <ardchoille> zbrown: May I pm you rufius?
[07:59] <ubuntuEdgy> yep
[07:59] <AlexSFBay> So I definitely need to by a compatible HD DVD or Blu-ray drive then?
[07:59] <ubuntuEdgy> yeh ,

[07:59] <codeCowboy> hi. i've got a strange problem with audio on ubuntu 6.10. i can play and hear an mp3 through totem but the volume control on the panel says it is muted? sound card is Delta66. anyone know how to fix/troubleshoot?
[07:59] <ubuntuEdgy> yourwelcome
[08:00] <ubuntuEdgy> Your $HOME/dmrc file has incorrect permissions and is being ignored ...........File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions.
[08:00] <bzaks> Is there a program to possibly repair damaged floppies?
[08:00] <ubuntuEdgy> any one can help
[08:01] <tsikis> the only way i could work mms is use mimms to download wmv file and then play it with any player with wmv codec
[08:01] <esophagus> bzaks: do u mean rescuing files?
[08:01] <bzaks> yeah
[08:01] <hendaus> theacolyte,  sudo mkdir /home/ed2k.protocol  , now if i want to del it,what should be  the command
[08:01] <zipper> ubuntuEdgy, well, you can change permissions with the 'chmod' command
[08:01] <bzaks> I've got some photos from an old mavica, and I can't get some of them to show
[08:01] <mzanfardino> how can I see what DNS server address has been assigned to my network interface?
[08:01] <bzaks> and I thought maybe there's a program that works to fix it
[08:01] <zipper> ubuntuEdgy, and who owns it can be set with 'chown'
[08:01] <tavy1> is there anyone that could help me with a problem while installing ubuntu?
[08:01] <esophagus> bzaks: there is a progie called dd and anotherone called dd_rescue
[08:01] <ubuntuEdgy> zipper:  ihave done it all chmod 777 666 644
[08:01] <bzaks> okay
[08:01] <bzaks> thanks Eso
[08:02] <esophagus> np
[08:02] <esophagus> dd should already be installed, dd_rescue is not by default
[08:02] <eeyore> whenever I use wine to play a game, i lose sound until I restart because I use OSS in wine. is there any way i can restart only some module so that i don't have to reset my entire machine?
[08:02] <angrist> anyone use git much?
[08:02] <RoundyT1> are there any sha1 hashers in the ubuntu repos???--------------------------------__?
[08:02] <dyrne> ubuntuEdgy: you own your home dir also right? ls -l /home ?
[08:02] <ubuntuEdgy> whole thing is so buggy
[08:02] <root_> How can i get a overview over my hardware?
[08:03] <tavy1> is there anyone that could help me with a problem while installing ubuntu?
[08:03] <zipper> ubuntuEdgy, you should probably set it to 644... chown is used like this: "chown UsernameHere:GroupnameHere /folder/file"
[08:03] <ubuntuEdgy> i have this drwxrwxrwx
[08:03] <zipper> yeah... that isnt 644
[08:03] <mzanfardino> I seem to be having trouble with my DNS. I can ping an internal address, but when I attempt to ping it by server name it doesn't respond. I'm trying to verify the DNS assigned to my interface.  How can I get that info?
[08:03] <zipper> ubuntuEdgy, thats 777
[08:04] <dyrne> root_: lshw or lspci -v or for usb lsusb  etc.  dont run irc client as root btw
[08:04] <root_> dyrne: i dont got a chice
[08:04] <Pollywog> mzanfardino: ifconfig -a
[08:04] <root_> LVM fucked and i used it as a home partition
[08:04] <NBX[ubuntu] > Where can i enable SSH for Ubuntu?
[08:04] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | root_
[08:04] <ubotu> root_: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:04] <dyrne> root_: ah. condolences
[08:04] <Pollywog> please watch the lanugage
[08:04] <ubuntuEdgy> on so it should be chmod 644 ~/home
[08:04] <bwa> hi
[08:04] <tonyyarusso> !ssh | NBX[ubuntu] 
[08:04] <ubotu> NBX[ubuntu] : SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[08:04] <bwa> i was messing with xorg.conf file
[08:05] <mzanfardino> Pollywog: that doesn't seem to report the DNS address assigned to my interface
[08:05] <bwa> and i deleted it because i couldn't boot to my gui
[08:05] <bwa> how do i recover that file?
[08:05] <RoundyT1> are there any sha1 hashers in the ubuntu repos???--------------------------------__?
[08:05] <angrist> mzanfardino- cat /etc/resolv.conf
[08:05] <Pici> bwa: sudo `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg`
[08:05] <Pici> bwa: er, forget the quotes.
[08:05] <angrist> then ping the ip addresses of those dns servers
[08:05] <Pollywog> host <ip.add.re.ss>
[08:05] <tavy1> please help, tomorrow i must leave home and i really need Uubuntu installed on my laptop...
[08:05] <Pollywog> or use dig
[08:06] <bwa> on windows now
[08:06] <bwa> have to boot to ubuntu
[08:06] <tavy1> but the installation process just stucks...
[08:06] <bwa> does mirc support linux?
[08:06] <ubuntuEdgy> i don't have a group name thou zipper:
[08:06] <Pici> bwa: No, but if you're used to mirc I suggest xchat, its similar.
[08:06] <preaction> bwa: you can run mirc under wine, but why bother?
[08:06] <Pollywog> bwa: I don't think so but I think Mirc will run on WINE
[08:06] <theacolyte> !irc > bwa (read your PM)
[08:06] <mzanfardino> angrist: I can ping them both (and they are correct, I have confirmed them), however I still can not ping any internal servers by name (i.e. my printer which is brn_7a89F5)
[08:07] <ubuntuEdgy> also zipper: why would things change now, what would have caused this ?
[08:07] <Pollywog> exactly, why bother when there are IRC clients like Konversation, xchat, and kvirc
[08:07] <bwa> xchat pretty good?
[08:07] <frank227a> Can I someone connect to my ubuntu though remote desktop with the default ubuntu settings or do I have to make changes to allow that?
[08:07] <Pollywog> I did not know you could ping a printer
[08:08] <mzanfardino> Pollywog: it's a network printer
[08:08] <tavy1> ok, can anyone here suggest where i could look for help?
[08:08] <esophagus> you can even kick a printer off your desk :D
[08:08] <mzanfardino> Pollywog: I can ping the ip address, but since it's assigned via dhcp, I don't want to hard-code the ip address.  It's been working for the last few months with the server name, but not it's no good...
[08:08] <Pollywog> mzanfardino: you have BIND installed?
[08:08] <esophagus> tavy1: about what? ask the q
[08:08] <bwa> thanks
[08:08] <bwa> brb
[08:08] <bwa> booting to ubuntu
[08:08] <mzanfardino> Pollywog: yep, but I'm not familiar with it
[08:09] <NBX[ubuntu] > With what program i can use mIRC scripts too?
[08:09] <tavy1> esophagus, my Ubuntu installation stucks almost at the beggining
[08:09] <Pollywog> mzanfardino: did you edit the zone entries?
[08:09] <mzanfardino> Pollywog: have edited nothing.
[08:09] <Pici> NBX[ubuntu] : Nothing.  You'd have to run mIRC under wine to do that.
[08:09] <Pollywog> mzanfardino: well that is why it won't work
[08:09] <NBX[ubuntu] > Pici, wont it eat more RAM than usual?
[08:09] <Pollywog> you need to add zone entried
[08:09] <Pollywog> entries
[08:09] <mzanfardino> Pollywog: well, that's not entirely true.  I have edited /etc/hosts, but that was some time ago... so the printer was still working then
[08:09] <tavy1> esophagus, the last message i receive is 'io scheduler cfg registered (default)'
[08:10] <tavy1> and the computer just stops responding
[08:10] <Pici> NBX[ubuntu] : Probably a little bit.
[08:10] <NBX[ubuntu] > damn
[08:10] <Pici> tavy1: Have you tried using the Alternative CD to install?
[08:10] <Pollywog> mzanfardino: does 'ping printerhostname' work?
[08:10] <numan> i am having problem with display driver
[08:10] <numan> i installed the ubuntu through alternate cd in text mode everything went fine with installation but no display come up after ubuntu startup
[08:11] <tavy1> esophagus: no, i used the standard installation cd that i downloaded frum ubuntu website
[08:11] <tavy1> whould i try to use and alternate cd?
[08:11] <dephtu> hmm
[08:11] <mzanfardino> Pollywog: pinging the ip address directly works fine.  pinging by server name is no good
[08:11] <dephtu> bitchx looks kinda crappy
[08:11] <tavy1> *should
[08:11] <numan> help anybody
[08:11] <ubuntuEdgy> ok now i have this  ls -l /home
[08:11] <ubuntuEdgy> total 0
[08:11] <ubuntuEdgy> ?--------- ? ? ? ?                ? /user/mythtv
[08:11] <ubuntuEdgy> ?--------- ? ? ? ?                ?/user/username
[08:11] <mzanfardino> Pollywog: but now I've just been informed that our dns server can be flaky... so that's probably it.
[08:11] <esophagus> tavy1: i have no idea what this is, sorry
[08:12] <angrist> mzan- is your search path correct?
[08:12] <dephtu> anyone know of an irc client that looks good (like xchat) but can be setup with things like an ipv6 tunnel ?
[08:12] <mzanfardino> angrist: how can I confirm my search path?
[08:12] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: Did you do a sudo chmod -R on home recently?
[08:12] <angrist> its in resolv.conf
[08:13] <ubuntuEdgy>  ardchoille42:sudo chmod 644 /home
[08:13] <pili> hola pepi
[08:13] <NBX[ubuntu] > How can i change SSH login and password?
[08:13] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: That is exactly why you are having this problem. You removed the execute bit from the folders.
[08:13] <angrist> mzan- make sure you have something like "search blah.com" ie your local domain
[08:13] <ubuntuEdgy> help me ardchoille42: how can i get things back in order
[08:14] <dyrne> NBX[ubuntu] : thats your username and pass
[08:14] <NBX[ubuntu] > dylock, didnt understand
[08:14] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: sudo chmod a+x /home
[08:14] <NBX[ubuntu] > dyrne, whats my username and pass?
[08:14] <Pollywog> NBX[ubuntu] : are you using passphrases in SSH?
[08:14] <codeCowboy> hi. i've got a strange problem with audio on ubuntu 6.10. i can play and hear an mp3 through totem but the volume control on the panel says it is muted? sound card is Delta66. anyone know how to fix/troubleshoot?
[08:15] <NBX[ubuntu] > Pollywog, well i just installed it
[08:15] <Pollywog> oh then you are not
[08:15] <NBX[ubuntu] > Pollywog, i dont really know
[08:15] <NBX[ubuntu] > how can i use?
[08:15] <ubuntuEdgy> ardchoille42:drwxrwxrwx 53  users ,shouldn't it be drwxr-xr-x
[08:16] <tavy1> where could i get the Alternative CD for Ubuntu?
[08:16] <Pollywog> you just use your login and password until you add a passphrase with 'ssh-keygen -t <type> -b 1024' or similar
[08:16] <NBX> oh, ok
[08:16] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: That command I gave you will only restore the execute bit to /home, which should solve your problem.
[08:17] <Pollywog> but you need to read some tutorial on how to configure SSHD
[08:17] <elementz_> need help compiling par2commandline - keep getting errors when running make and make check
[08:17] <codeCowboy> anyone? ^^
[08:17] <elementz_> anybody willing to help?
[08:17] <payan> I've  lost any sound in firefox. Please  h e l p
[08:17] <ubuntuEdgy> ardchoille42: when i log on i get this Your $HOME/dmrc file has incorrect permissions and is being ignored ...........File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions.
[08:17] <NBX> Pollywog, i need it just for "Bitvise Tunellier" to login and send files, nothing more
[08:17] <Pollywog> k
[08:17] <frank227a> Anyone know of a poker website that works with ubuntu?  Something like partypoker or fulltiltpoker?
[08:17] <elementz_> codeCowboy, to you have a second sound card installed?
[08:18] <Pollywog> NBX: if you set up ssh to use a passphrase, you won't need to keep entering your password
[08:18] <codeCowboy> elementz  -yes but volume control is set to use the delta
[08:18] <Ruisu> hmmm okay i have a bigger problem... anyone willing to help?
[08:18] <mzanfardino> bah, it's our bloody dns.  once I add the printer to my hosts file it works fine.  goddamn cheapass microsoft crap
[08:18] <Pollywog> NBX: as long as you stay logged in
[08:18] <NBX> Pollywog, can i enable this thing only on local network - throught 192.168.2.101 / 100 etc..
[08:19] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: ubuntuEdgy You are getting that because the system can't descend into /home, it has improper permissions. I gave you the command to fix it.
[08:19] <elementz_> codeCowboy, hm was just an idea - since i had the same issue, and i just used the wrong settings in the volume control of the panel
[08:19] <elementz_> codeCowboy, good luck though
[08:19] <bzaks> Um, Eso... how do I use dd?
[08:19] <Pollywog> NBX: yes I think you could do that in /etc/hosts.allow
[08:19] <codeCowboy> elementz - ok, thanks. do you have a delta66?
[08:19] <bzaks> it's kinda complicated
[08:19] <avb> NBX: u can bind sshd only to the interface of a local netowrk
[08:19] <NBX> oh
[08:19] <elyob> Hi all, wonder if anyone can help with an installation ... bit of a noob, i'm installing server and got to login. Don't know the root password .. didn't ask during install, and it doesn't boot into a GUI environment.
[08:19] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: folders must always have the execute bit set or you will have permissions problems.
[08:20] <Pollywog> NBX: or the way avb suggests
[08:20] <zipper> ubuntuEdgy, you DO have a groupname, it might just be the same as your username. Hard to tell how you managed to change permissions.
[08:20] <dyrne> !root| elyob root is disabled
[08:20] <tavy1> can anyopne help reslving a problem that occures while installing Ubuntu? here are the last lines of text that i can see before the computer stucks:
[08:20] <ubotu> elyob root is disabled: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:20] <avb> Pollywog: are u sure? hosts.allow use tcpd, ssh is a standalone
[08:20] <NBX> can someone point me to any tutorial / commands at internet?
[08:20] <Pollywog> ssh can use tcp wrappers

[08:21] <tavy1> ubotu and theacolyte, thx
[08:21] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: When you did sudo chmod 644 /home, YOU messed it up.
[08:21] <NBX> it shows me "Saving the key failed: dsa"
[08:22] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: YOU removed the execute bit from the folder. Now you need to restore it.
[08:22] <zipper> ubuntuEdgy, then who did?
[08:22] <NBX> Pollywog, avb - it shows me "Saving the key failed: dsa"
[08:22] <Pollywog> NBX I am not sure why it won't save it, I have never seen that error
[08:22] <NBX> what file type should i write?
[08:22] <Pollywog> dsa is good
[08:23] <avb> NBX: open terminal on your client, run ssh-keygen -t dsa
[08:23] <Pollywog> something like 'ssh-keygen -t dsa -b 1024'
[08:23] <NBX> avb, i am doing that
[08:23] <wizard_> anyone know why network-manager would keep disconnecting?
[08:23] <NBX> ok, lets try that again
[08:23] <ubuntuEdgy> ardchoille42:any easy way to restore it ? sudo chmod a+x /home again ?
[08:23] <NBX> oh, now it worked
[08:23] <NBX> i needed at least 4 bytes of passphrase
[08:23] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: yes
[08:24] <avb> NBX: then copy your ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub to remote pc
[08:24] <NBX> how?
[08:24] <avb> NBX: to ~/.ssh directory
[08:24] <ardchoille42> ubuntuEdgy: And then I would recommend you learn about folder permissions as well as read man chmod
[08:24] <avb> NBX: then run chmod 700 ~/.ssh
[08:24] <avb> on the remote pc
[08:24] <Pollywog> NBX:  ssh-copy-id -i pubkey.pub login@remotehost
[08:24] <elyob> Okay, so I've got to the command prompt in my server installation, which GUI's are available?
[08:25] <NBX> what should i use in "login"?
[08:25] <NBX> servers hostname?
[08:25] <Pollywog> the login name at the remote server
[08:25] <Pollywog> for example peanut@myisp.com
[08:25] <ubuntuEdgy> vista is starting to look attractive each day :-X
[08:26] <Pollywog> ubuntuEdgy: models do the same thing when they have no brains
[08:26] <SuperQ> ubuntuEdgy: haha
[08:26] <Pitel_laptop> is there any workarond to get opengl appsintegrate well with aiglx and beryl?
[08:26] <theacolyte> elyob: there are none, please join #ubuntu-server for ubuntu server support
[08:26] <Pollywog> Vista is just trying to get by on its looks
[08:26] <likewise> Hello.
[08:26] <tavy1> here are the last lines that are shown on my screen before the computer freezes while installing Ubuntu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14062/
[08:27] <likewise> My Ubuntu Feisty with Compiz looks just much better than Vista does here (because Vista is not here :-) )
[08:27] <quaal> anyone dealt with ipv6 in ubuntu? i'm trying to ping an address but cant
[08:27] <radoe> hi
[08:27] <likewise> I wonder if I can have a different background on each virtual desktop?
[08:27] <avb> likewise: the last we need to wait is when gstreamer output will begin to show films with compiz :)
[08:27] <NBX> it show`d me error - no identities found
[08:28] <likewise> quaal: your ifconfig shows IPv6 addresson your i/f. Also your provider/network does IPv6 routing?
[08:28] <NBX> oh, i got that
[08:28] <_joey> looking for an application to scan and save the documents in pdf
[08:28] <theacolyte> tavy1: try specifiying noapic and acpi=off when you boot
[08:28] <Pollywog> _joey: pdf is proprietary right?
[08:28] <NBX> avb, Pollywog - it showd that Connection is refused
[08:28] <quaal> likewise, i see nothing in ifconfig pertaining to ipv6
[08:28] <coolbone> anyone got a few moments to lend some advice in a PM about apache2 and virtual hosting?
[08:28] <tavy1> thx, theacolyte, i will try this right away
[08:29] <quaal> likewise, the way i understand this working is, ipv6 is encoded into ipv4
[08:29] <avb> NBX: please show us the command u r running
[08:29] <likewise> quaal: The IPV6 howto?
[08:29] <NBX> " 09:24:34pm| Pollywog: NBX: ssh-copy-id -i pubkey.pub login@remotehost"
[08:29] <ubuntuEdgy> Pollywog:total different cattle of fish thou
[08:29] <NBX> this command
[08:29] <payan> I've  lost any sound in firefox. Please  h e l p
[08:29] <_joey> yes? no?
[08:29] <Pollywog> NBX: that is because of the config on the remote server, perhaps
[08:29] <likewise> quaal: IPv6 *can* be tunneled over Ipv4 in multiple ways, but it does not need to.
[08:29] <Pollywog> you might have to physically copy the key to the other host
[08:29] <likewise> quaal: You would need to start with some HOWTO's
[08:29] <NBX> the server i am trying to get the key now is this PC on Windows XP - how can i enable the connection?
[08:30] <avb> NBX: you need to replace remotehost with the ip of your remote pc
[08:30] <theacolyte> quaal: it depends on your ISP also, for instance, my ISP does ipv6 tunneling. Works great.
[08:30] <quaal> likewise, i'll do that
[08:30] <NBX> avb, i did that already :)
[08:30] <quaal> thanks
[08:30] <NBX> the server i am trying to get the key now is this PC on Windows XP - how can i enable the connection?
[08:30] <_joey> okay, what is the popular application used with scanners?
[08:30] <Pollywog> xsane or kooka
[08:30] <NBX> what is that?
[08:30] <jshriver> how do you use "install" to manually install man pages?
[08:31] <Pollywog> _joey xsane or kooka
[08:31] <aaroncampbell> is there a way to run a command at an interval (like every minute) just for a while (like until a ctrl+break)
[08:31] <jshriver> cron
[08:31] <tavy1> theacolyte, thx, i worked now
[08:31] <theacolyte> tavy1: great :)
[08:31] <Pollywog> NBX are you trying to copy the key to a Windows server?
[08:32] <aaroncampbell> jshriver: hmmm, I thought that might be the only way...I want to see the output though
[08:32] <predaeus> jshriver, some man pages come with development packages, others you would have to copy to the appropriate directory.
[08:32] <NBX> Pollywog, yes - for Bitvise Tunellier
[08:32] <NBX> to login
[08:32] <theacolyte> tavy1: make sure that those parameters are also set in /boot/grub/menu.lst before you reboot
[08:32] <jshriver> I wrote the man page :) just not sure where or how to put it into the system...
[08:32] <Pollywog> NBX I should have asked you that before.  I am not sure that command will work on a Windows server
[08:32] <jshriver> know when I use other source packages it uses "install" to install man pages and other things
[08:32] <NBX> oh, ok
[08:32] <Pollywog> you might have to physically copy the key to the other host
[08:33] <NBX> throught FTP or something?
[08:33] <caffeinism> OOOH ubuntu. I had my black friend install it and he started calling it "ubuntukinte" like the guy from roots.
[08:33] <Pollywog> NBX: what ssh server is on the Window host?
[08:33] <NBX> there is just client - "Bitvise Tunellier"
[08:33] <NBX> to connect to the server where is it on (ubuntu)
[08:33] <NBX> and send files
[08:33] <Pollywog> I do not know what that is
[08:33] <esophagus> jeez
[08:34] <predaeus> jshriver, I think it suffices to copy them to the right directory. But I am not sure. see /usr/share/man
[08:34] <NBX> Pollywog, http://www.bitvise.com/tunnelier
[08:34] <predaeus> jshriver, or probably check "man man"
[08:34] <Pollywog> NBX okay there is the problem, that is not a server
[08:34] <quaal> likewise, this one http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Linux+IPv6-HOWTO/
[08:34] <quaal> ?
[08:34] <nexousNET> Hio
[08:34] <NBX> Pollywog, yes - it is a client :)
[08:35] <Pollywog> NBX you might need to use ftp or some other means to get the key to the client
[08:35] <nexousNET> How can I setup a FTP server that serves for my server?
[08:35] <NBX> hmm
[08:35] <nexousNET> *that serves for my web server.
[08:36] <likewise> quaal: yup, looks like the thing to read
[08:36] <kylecasey> hey guys im back still no luck with my sound in half life 2 has anyone got any ideas?
[08:36] <Pollywog> NBX you will need to install an ssh server on the machine to which you want to send files
[08:36] <NBX> Pollywog, where can i get that?
[08:36] <esophagus> kylecasey: there is a way to get your wine using esound, don't know how... www.winehq.org maybe?
[08:36] <Pollywog> http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/
[08:37] <izN> Caio_brpite ;p
[08:37] <NBX> Pollywog, the server is on ubuntu
[08:37] <Pollywog> oh
[08:37] <Pollywog> k
[08:37] <NBX> the client is on Windows XP
[08:37] <NBX> :)
[08:37] <Caio_brpite> i3d aew
[08:37] <izN> o.o
[08:37] <Caio_brpite> izN ae
[08:37] <kylecasey> ok thanks esophagus il check there but i didnt see anything there before
[08:37] <Caio_brpite> sghaihsuahush
[08:37] <izN> only english, Caio_brpite
[08:37] <izN> :x
[08:37] <Pollywog> then don't you have a way to put the public ssh key on a disk and transfer it to the client?
[08:37] <esophagus> kylecasey: forum?
[08:37] <Caio_brpite> yes
[08:37] <Caio_brpite> good
[08:38] <NBX> Pollywog, i dont really know :/
[08:38] <NBX> "openssh-server" is on the server - the only thing
[08:38] <nexousNET> !wine
[08:38] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[08:39] <kylecasey> esophagus i dont see one there and before i tried some linux forums and they werent much help so far here has been the best help ive gotten
[08:39] <Pollywog> there is no other way to do it unless you email the public key to someone who can set it up on the remote
[08:39] <esophagus> :/
[08:39] <RoundyT1> where's the best place for PHP nuke themes??
[08:40] <NBX> Pollywog, in the "Bitvise Tunellier" is asked for "Username" and "Password" - the password is not the public key, but how can i set it then?
[08:40] <NBX> my friend maked this and didn`t have to send any files, so theres other way :)
[08:40] <Pollywog> this thing uses ssh?
[08:40] <NBX> yes
[08:40] <RoundyT1> where's the best place for PHP nuke themes??
[08:40] <Pollywog> you can just use your normal login and password
[08:40] <NBX> ok, lets try
[08:40] <theacolyte> !offtopic | RoundyT1
[08:40] <ubotu> RoundyT1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:41] <Pollywog> but you will need to enter it every time
[08:41] <RoundyT1> omg
[08:41] <Cosmo_> I am trying to rescue some information from windows for my mother on her laptop, I made a partition for ubuntu and installed it and followed the guides on the forum to mount the windows partition but I can not seem to find the windows files, I'm trying to find them so I can move them to another drive on the network but I am not seeing them anywhere
[08:41] <NBX> Pollywog, i used the same password what i use for "sudo" commands and it wasnt right
[08:41] <Caio_brpite> anaconda you are brazilian ?
[08:41] <anaconda> no
[08:41] <Pollywog> NBX you cannot login to the remote if it is not running SSH server
[08:42] <Caio_brpite> anaconda ah ok
[08:42] <Pollywog> I think you should ask your friend what to do
[08:42] <NBX> Pollywog, but the server i connect to (ubuntu) is running "openssh-server"
[08:42] <NBX> the friend is not at PC for month :|
[08:42] <izN> any1 brazilian?
[08:43] <Pollywog> NBX: I don't really understand what you are trying to do, apparently
[08:43] <esophagus> any1 bosnian? :>
[08:43] <payan> I've  lost any sound in firefox. Please  h e l p
[08:43] <izN> esophagus, lol, bosnian @_@
[08:43] <NBX> Pollywog, the "Bitvise Tunellier" is for sending files from my PC (Windows) to remote server (Ubuntu) throught local and very fast, like copying
[08:43] <NBX> i currently need to set username and password
[08:44] <Caio_brpite> I have a server of lodging of sites, some interested person?
[08:44] <Pollywog> oh, have you tried using PuTTY on the windows client?
[08:44] <NBX> Pollywog, well i have it
[08:44] <Pollywog> that will work
[08:45] <Ruisu> I am having mount issues
[08:45] <Ruisu> can anyone help
[08:45] <Caio_brpite> some woman here ?
[08:45] <radoe> Ruisu: maybe, if you tell us your issues...
[08:45] <dyrne> Ruisu: what are you trying to mount?
[08:45] <Pollywog> I don't know if this Bitvise can use ssh passphrases or if it does scp but PuTTY can do that
[08:46] <Pollywog> Caio_brpite: this is not that kind of channel
[08:46] <dyrne> Caio_brpite: you have a gender specific question? :)
[08:46] <Caio_brpite> heuheuh
[08:46] <Caio_brpite> i'm brazilian and i was find one channel of chat
[08:47] <Ruisu> when i mount my ntfs drive

[08:47] <eegore> gaim keeps quitting with no messages on me in kubuntu dapper, has there been an issue here in the past?
[08:47] <Ruisu> i get this error when i try to view it
[08:47] <blamethrower> where do you find the system32 directory in wine
[08:47] <Ruisu> You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "Music".
[08:47] <Pollywog> Caio_brpite: this channel is for Ubuntu support
[08:47] <EADG> How do I string 2 commands together on one line? ex, ls -lh + ls -l |wc -l
[08:47] <blamethrower> I can't find the wine drive
[08:47] <predaeus> Caio_brpite, #ubuntu-br is the brasilian support channel #ubuntu-offtopic is for chit chat
[08:47] <dooglus> is there a supported method of upgrading from live CD 6.06 to live CD 6.10?
[08:47] <dooglus> I'm using a live CD with casper-rw
[08:48] <NBX> Pollywog, putty didnt work
[08:48] <Caio_brpite> i am computer programmer
[08:48] <Apollo^101> mplayer does plays .dat or .mp3 files. why
[08:48] <dyrne> Apollo^101: does not?
[08:48] <NBX> oh, edit
[08:48] <NBX> did work
[08:48] <radoe> Ruisu: how did you mount this drive?
[08:48] <Pollywog> Caio_brpite: you write gender-specific code?

[08:49] <Ruisu> i mounted through terminal using sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda5 /media/Music
[08:49] <dyrne> Apollo^101: see the first restricted link
[08:49] <AndyCR1> hi, having an issue with xorg, just updated everything and ubuntu complains that x cannot start because no suitable screen is found
[08:49] <Pollywog> PuTTY will allow you to send files to hosts running sshd
[08:49] <AndyCR1> didnt happen before the update
[08:49] <rNIUS> hello all!
[08:49] <Pollywog> gg
[08:50] <Apollo^101> dyrne, ok
[08:50] <radoe> Ruisu: you should add "-o uid=YourNumericUID" as option to mount.
[08:50] <dooglus> is there a supported method of upgrading from live CD 6.06 to live CD 6.10?
[08:50] <dooglus> I'm using a live CD with casper-rw
[08:50] <Ruisu> how do i find my numericUID?
[08:50] <dooglus> Ruisu: run 'id'
[08:51] <radoe> Ruisu: open a terminal, type "id"
[08:51] <Caio_brpite> Pollywog you can indicate me other channels?
[08:51] <bykte> what are the probabality of me installing Ubuntu without having to edit a config file to get something working?
[08:51] <dooglus> bykte: what's your IQ?
[08:51] <Ruisu> so for option i should put it where
[08:51] <epoch> what command would i do to add the user 'epoch' to the group 'audio'
[08:51] <bykte> no idea..never took a test for IQ before
[08:51] <eegore> tee hee
[08:51] <piglit> hello there i am try-ing to compile my own kernel i found a howto whitch discribes what to do it is here: http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu_p2#comment-3364?s=ac99590c0f42d36feebe2cae48a4b0dc&  everything went right there was a lot of text scrolling in the console but when the compilation was done there where no packages as discribed in the howto in the howto they tell: " ...After the successful kernel build, you can find tw
[08:51] <piglit> o .deb packages in the /usr/src directory...." but there are no deb packages there .... the compilation took abouth 1 hour so that is oke i think .... there is one thing that i might have done wrong that is the howto tell's you to: " .......make-kpkg clean      and then      fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers...."  but there are white spaces between the words custom and kernel_image and kernel
[08:51] <piglit> _header i had to delete them     someone on the end of the text tells you have to put a \ in stead of the white spaces? is that right ? normaly i would experiment but it it takes 1 hour to compile this wil become a verry long story can annyone please explain me what to do please ?
[08:51] <dooglus> bykte: I'd guess < 0.5 then
[08:52] <predaeus> !paste | piglit
[08:52] <ubotu> piglit: 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)
[08:52] <Apollo^101> is there a simple way to make a backup of my linux installed partition.   like a live cd?
[08:52] <Ruisu> sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda5 /media/Music -o uid=myUID
[08:52] <Ruisu> like that
[08:52] <bykte> dooglus, 0.5 as in 50%?
[08:52] <piglit> predaeus: osrry i dod not realise i did type that much .... sorry
[08:52] <dooglus> bykte: you asked for a probability didn't you?
[08:52] <predaeus> piglit, oh well it is one giant question so never mind *g*
[08:52] <radoe> Ruisu: yes, just try it.
[08:53] <bykte> oh right..time to google to see if there are linux drivers for my hardware...
[08:53] <piglit> giant pigs giant questions i ques .....
[08:53] <Ruisu> you are WONDERFUL radoe
[08:53] <sjd> hi
[08:53] <Ruisu> okay in /etc/fstab i should put those options
[08:53] <Ruisu> as well?
[08:54] <tomy-dsd> how do i leave e message is it msg send memo
[08:54] <Ruisu> like this /dev/sda5 /media/Music ntfs -o uid=1000 0 0
[08:54] <dooglus> is there a channel for support re. the live CD?
[08:54] <Apollo^101> i was thinking to make a backup plus make it live on live cd. is it possible. any easy way
[08:54] <radoe> Ruisu: I you want to mount using fstab, yes. Just add uid=... to the options column
[08:55] <Ruisu> instead of defaults?
[08:55] <tomy-dsd> how do i leave e message is it msg send memo
[08:55] <predaeus> piglit, they spaces belong there. recompiling normally does not take so long because all is already compiled, if you do not change configurations that is.
[08:55] <jiphex> how come my feisty system pauses on boot up every time to fsck one of the discs?
[08:55] <Ruisu> is it safe to replace all the defaults on my other drives with -o uid=1000?
[08:55] <predaeus> s/they/the
[08:56] <dooglus> jiphex: because it never powers down cleanly maybe?
[08:56] <jiphex> hmm maybe
[08:56] <jiphex> i tell it to shutdown though
[08:56] <jiphex> is there a log somewhere?
[08:56] <dooglus> jiphex: I remember when dapper was in beta it would always power off before umounting the root partition
[08:56] <skar> is there any local system startup script to which i can add my commands?
[08:56] <dooglus> jiphex: I reported a bug, but the ubuntu devs can be a little slow at times fixing things
[08:57] <radoe> Ruisu: no, it isn't. uid as option ist only supported for some "foreign" filesystems like fat/vfat/ntfs.
[08:57] <jiphex> thanks
[08:57] <Ruisu> oh okay.. thanks for your help radoe...
[08:58] <radoe> Ruisu: btw, you do not try to add this  as "-o uid=.." to fstab, do you?
[08:58] <t3hwiz0rd> network-manager is disconnect happy
[08:58] <brainiac8008> question, i am going to upgrade to edgy tomorrow from dapper.  Currently, when my computer boots, GRUB comes up but their are 2 duplicates of the selection for Ubuntu and 2 duplicates of the selection for Ubuntu recovery mode.  How do I get rid of the duplicates, and if I can, when I upgrade to Edgy, will it leave the old selections for Ubuntu dapper and Ubuntu Dapper recovery?
[08:59] <RARCA> Good evening all!
[08:59] <dyrne> brainiac8008: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list
[08:59] <predaeus> piglit, white spaces in shell commands are normally ignored. you can put in as many as you want, but you need at least one inbetween those words you had there.
[08:59] <t3hwiz0rd> this is ridiculous. does anyone know why network-manager disconnects a whole crapload at random?
[09:00] <B123> What would be the command to start gaim when loading gnome?
[09:00] <B123> wouldnt it be start gaim?

[09:00] <B123> thanks everyone.

[09:01] <brainiac8008> dyrne, this is what i got:"(gedit:6111): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[09:01] <brainiac8008> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed."
[09:01] <jackn> hilltop, how do I change the appearance of my username on this screen?
[09:01] <jackn> sorry, hi, not hilltop
[09:01] <dyrne> brainiac8008: er... try sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst   if that doesnt work type 'groups' and make sure admin shows up
[09:02] <dyrne> brainiac8008: have you changed the hostname?
[09:02] <brainiac8008> what hostname?
[09:02] <jackn> Is it possible to change the language used before login?
[09:02] <dooglus> jackn: how do you want it to change?
[09:02] <brainiac8008> it opened the file, but there is a lot
[09:03] <Ruisu> radoe, i havent yet
[09:03] <Ruisu> i dont think
[09:03] <NBX> How can i easily send files from Windows to Linux throught local network?
[09:03] <Ruisu> if i did i should get rid of it?
[09:03] <jackn> dooglus thanx. colour, mainly, but why not font?
[09:03] <a1> new to ubuntu, bu has used red hat, suse, etc...
[09:03] <jackn> dooglus, and the colour of text,too, would be cool.
[09:03] <dyrne> brainiac8008: scroll to near the bottom anything with a # at begining is just a comment you are looking for the 'title    ubuntu' or recovery entries. just delete what you dont want
[09:03] <dooglus> jackn: you want to change the color of your username?
[09:03] <jackn> dooglus, yes.
[09:03] <a1> anyone know what torrent program I can use ?
[09:03] <dooglus> jackn: in which program?
[09:04] <a1> installed ubuntu yesterday.
[09:04] <jonah1980> hi can anyone help, i've got a package that wont install but i can't remove it to try install it fresh cos it wants to uninstall ubuntu-desktop. here's my errors etc : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14067/
[09:04] <dyrne> a1: if youre in edgy or above consider deluge
[09:04] <a1> :-)
[09:04] <jackn> dooglus, sorry, here, in this IRC chat.
[09:04] <dooglus> a1: azureus is good if you've got the memory
[09:04] <NBX> How can i easily send files from Windows to Linux throught local network?
[09:04] <radoe> Ruisu: I mean, just add uid=... to the comma-separeted list of options, without the "-o".
[09:04] <dooglus> jackn: it depends which program you're using
[09:04] <predaeus> !torrent > a1
[09:04] <dooglus> jackn: irssi is good
[09:04] <Cosmo_> I am trying to rescue some information from windows for my mother on her laptop, I made a partition for ubuntu and installed it and followed the guides on the forum to mount the windows partition but I can not seem to find the windows files, I'm trying to find them so I can move them to another drive on the network but I am not seeing them anywhere
[09:04] <a1> azureus wa quite slow when I used it in XP.
[09:04] <nitro> i use the original bittorrent client
[09:04] <jackn> dooglus, xchat
[09:05] <dooglus> jackn: #xchat might kno
[09:05] <dooglus> w
[09:05] <dyrne> a1: deluge is alot easier on resources since it uses libs already loaded azureus or ktorrent wont have that advantage in gnome
[09:05] <jackn> dooglus, thanx.
[09:05] <a1> went over to uTorrents
[09:05] <Mr> does anyone know how i can access a webpage that relies on activex, in linux?
[09:05] <NBX> How can i easily send files from Windows to Linux throught local network?
[09:05] <a1> but seems only to be for windows.
[09:05] <Apollo^101> +the live cd installs kubuntu on hdd. isnt there a standard tool for making (reversing) the process from installed os to a live cd?
[09:06] <dyrne> a1: utorrent works in wine as well if you realy like it.
[09:06] <predaeus> piglit, in the tutorial you are using, in section 6, the 2 command lines look like three but the last line kernel_headers belongs to the second command
[09:06] <nitro> NBX you can use winscp on the windos machine
[09:06] <NBX> ok
[09:06] <a1> is bittorent inluded.
[09:06] <a1> ...in the delivery of ubuntu.
[09:07] <zxul767> hey everyone, I have a problem with compiz: it crashes a few minutes after initializing it, especially when using the Scale plugin. I'm using Feisty Fawn, and I'm not quite sure I have the correct configuration in my Xorg.conf
[09:07] <dyrne> a1: yes. but alot of people dont like the default client
[09:07] <Mr> how is feisty compared tro edgy BTW?
[09:07] <Panzer_> what about kernel compile using ICC v9?
[09:08] <payan> Mr: .94
[09:08] <zxul767> I have a Mobility Radeon 7000 IGP
[09:08] <qbert> has anyone succesfully remapped keys on ubuntu ?
[09:08] <Mr> .94?
[09:08] <hole_> where can i find more repositories to add to my list
[09:08] <Mr> why do you want to add more repos?
[09:09] <predaeus> zxul767, try asking in #ubuntu-effects for compiz/beryl related things and in #ubuntu+1 for issues with feisty
[09:09] <_wraith_> more apps?
[09:09] <t3hwiz0rd> is there any gtk-based app for msn that supports webcams too?
[09:09] <zxul767> thanks
[09:09] <dyrne> !easysource| hole_ this is just for supported there are unofficial ones
[09:09] <radoe> a1: A (simple) downloader is included. Just click a torrent-link in your browser or open gnome-btdownload manually.
[09:09] <ubotu> hole_ this is just for supported there are unofficial ones: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[09:09] <Mr> be careful when adding repos, you can get your machine hijacked that way
[09:09] <bish0p> does ubuntu have the equvalent to rh/fedoras: system-config-display  .. i've changed monitors and and wanting the autohappy, reconfigure X, like during the install magic
[09:09] <hole_> so i can find a quake install that doesn't require that i compile a source
[09:09] <thekidrio> mmm quake
[09:10] <hole_> havent learned how yet
[09:10] <dyrne> bish0p: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   is one way
[09:10] <Mr> try to find .deb file, instad of a whole repo
[09:10] <hole_> have been looking but noluck
[09:10] <thekidrio> hole_, just learn to compile it, I have not done that program myself but usually its not that tough
[09:11] <hole_> the only thing i managed to compile i found after that i didn't need
[09:11] <hole_> it was ndiswrapper
[09:11] <mark__> i need some help with fixing my xserver
[09:11] <nitro> t3hwiz0rd, i guess gizmo should support msn
[09:11] <hole_> what is wrong maybe i can help
[09:11] <Mr> i just wish i could get adultswim on linux
[09:11] <brainiac8008> dyrne, i did it.  now do I just select exit?  I don't see anything about saving
[09:12] <piglit> predaeus, i tried to reproduce the error i had yesterday but it seems i cant remember what i did wrong yesterday..... thanx annyway it is compiling now withouth errors....
[09:12] <piglit> (yet)
[09:12] <predaeus> :-)
[09:12] <animer> oe :D
[09:12] <piglit> maybe i will bother you again if the thing wont work in an hour or so .... but this is not the same error i had yesterday
[09:13] <brainiac8008> dyrne, i fixed it.  do i know do a ^X (exit)?
[09:13] <doug_> hello - what is the speed difference comparing xorg-fglrx and the ati binary driver?
[09:14] <radoe> doug_: these two are the same...
[09:14] <hole_> where is sources.list file
[09:14] <dyrne> brainiac8008: i think its ctrl 0  i dont use nano though so not sure. ctrl-o and ctrl-x to save then exit maybe
[09:14] <Ximal_> hello ?
[09:14] <Ximal_> u guys supporting feisty yet ?
[09:14] <theacolyte> !feisty > Ximal_ (read your PM)
[09:14] <crdlb> Ximal_, in #ubuntu+1
[09:15] <brainiac8008> dyrne, it says that cntrl O is writeout.  is this correct?
[09:15] <dyrne> brainiac8008: yeah
[09:15] <tomy-dsd> how do i isntall my sound drivers
[09:15] <hole_> hey where is my sources.list file located
[09:15] <radoe> hole_: look in /etc/apt/
[09:15] <hole_> thx
[09:15] <dyrne> hole_: also 'locate sources.list'
[09:16] <doug_> radoe:  sorry i mean the one you download in synaptic, and the xfree86 binary thing
[09:16] <dragon52225> I need help =(
[09:16] <bburg> anyone who is familiar with TKIP over nm-applet: how do you save settings for a hidden ssid?
[09:16] <dragon52225> I tried both the reg install and alt install and they both don't work?
[09:16] <quaal> what is the comand to run a script file
[09:17] <brainiac8008> dyrne, it now says, "File Name to Write: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:17] <brainiac8008> ^G Get Help         ^T To Files         M-M Mac Format      M-P Prepend
[09:17] <brainiac8008> ^C Cancel           M-D DOS Format      M-A Append          M-B Backup File"
[09:17] <tomy-dsd> how do i isntall my sound drivers
[09:17] <predaeus> dragon52225, what does it say?
[09:17] <dragon52225> predaeus: "Int 14: CR2  f8000000  err 00000000 EIP c020bc34  CS 00000060  flags 00100007"
[09:17] <dragon52225> Then next line is
[09:18] <radoe> doug_: which xfree86 binary thing? fglrx from synaptic is the same driver as you can download from ATI's website.
[09:18] <predaeus> hm sorry no idea
[09:18] <brainiac8008> dyrne, is it ^T, To files?
[09:18] <dragon52225> "Stack: c00f7c60 c03f12eb c0370be4 0000002 c00f7c69 000f7c60 00000000 00000000"
[09:18] <doug_> radoe:  i was told there was a different driver, one that is faster
[09:18] <dragon52225> Its when i boot it up for install
[09:19] <dragon52225> It shows the loading the vmsomething.gz thingy then it shows that error at the bottom of the screen
[09:19] <dyrne> anyone use nano to walk brainiac8008 through save and exit?
[09:19] <dragon52225> no wait
[09:19] <dragon52225> that error comes after initrd.gz or something
[09:20] <dyrne> brainiac8008: sorry ive never actually used it. vim is my poison
[09:20] <dragon52225> And its the same with both CDs as i said, both regular+alt
[09:20] <brainiac8008> o, ok.  thanks anyway.  what is vim, tho?
[09:20] <kando`sleep> 58$(
[09:21] <radoe> doug_: no, ATI' proprietary binary driver is called fglrx. Up to ATI's X850 chipset you may use xorgs own free radeon driver, but I didn't test this one. Rumours are that this one is a little bit slower than fglrx, but I can't confirm this.
[09:22] <doug_> radeo: thanks, i was so confused for so long. but you've cleaned that up for me :) thank you
[09:22] <Tul> ?
[09:22] <MrMary> how much swap is to much swap
[09:22] <predaeus> brainiac8008, vi or also vim is a text editor
[09:22] <dragon52225> So can anyone help me with the install problems?
[09:22] <quaal> i'm trying to setup ipv6 on a client computer in a small network (client behind router/gateway) anyone know the problem here http://pastebin.ca/425846
[09:22] <predaeus> brainiac8008, but I think that was nano that u used
[09:22] <dyrne> MrMary: 2xram is getting there
[09:23] <brainiac8008> predaeus, yes, it was, and still is.  do u know how to use nano well?
[09:23] <briank> does anyone know if Open source Xen 3.0 and XenExpress have compatible host files?
[09:24] <predaeus> dragon52225, maybe adding    noacpi   to the boot option might help. not sure though what exactly it does, or what else you could do. is it the edgy install cd or already some feisty release? because then you could also ask at #ubuntu+1 for feisty problems
[09:24] <dragon52225> I'm using feisty
[09:24] <predaeus> brainiac8008, nah haven't been using it for some time
[09:24] <dragon52225> Both alt+regular CDs
[09:24] <MrMary> if i have say, 1 gig or ram, at what point does the swap space begin to be unused?
[09:24] <radoe> quaal: notice the error message shown in the 2nd line...
[09:24] <predaeus> dragon52225, join #ubuntu+1 and ask there
[09:24] <MrMary> *of ram
[09:25] <dragon52225> [yeah i went to ubuntu+1
[09:25] <MrMary> if i had 1 gig of ram and had a 3 gig swap, would 1 gig be unused?
[09:25] <predaeus> MrMary, normally after your RAM is full, but I think there is some command to request swap space earlier. some applications seem to.
[09:25] <khin> hi i just installed the jdk 6 with the apt-get install command on 6.06. now how do i configure my system so that i can type 'javac' and compile something?
[09:25] <B123> Does anyone here know much about system76 computers? and there quality?
[09:25] <quaal> radoe, yea. sorry i guess i just dont know what it means?
[09:26] <predaeus> !swap > MrMary
[09:26] <radoe> quaal: radvd seems not to be installed.
[09:26] <quaal> radoe, oh, gotya
[09:26] <Rio79> B123 hah...i have been contemplating from buying there as well....
[09:26] <quaal> wajigging
[09:27] <quaal> B123, i was linked tothem a week or so ago for the first time
[09:27] <quaal> looks interesting
[09:27] <quaal> kinda pricey though
[09:27] <quaal> def want a computer that can run ubuntu/similar with no problem
[09:27] <brainiac8008> dyrne, i figured it out! thanks.  still won't know if it works correctly though until i reboot!
[09:27] <quaal> notebook i mean
[09:28] <B123> well I mean, they have a 3 year warrenty offer on all there computers. and the hardware in the computers they sell is not bad at all, so idk i just wan tot know if anyone has bought one?
[09:28] <radoe> khin: It does not work for you just after installing the jdk packages?
[09:28] <B123> I hear really good reviews about customer services, but i want to know how the laptop itself feels.
[09:28] <richiefrich> i would like to know can i change the standard port that apt-get runs on ?
[09:28] <richiefrich> my college just banned me from apt-get updating .. they think im torrenting
[09:28] <richiefrich> ?
[09:28] <quaal> SIOCSIFADDR: File exists
[09:28] <quaal> IPv6 configuration failed!
[09:29] <quaal> is what i get now
[09:29] <quaal> after installing radvd
[09:29] <quaal> hmm
[09:29] <B123> they banned you?
[09:29] <quaal> richiefrich, change colleges
[09:29] <coolbone> openssl is for serving https pages correct?
[09:29] <B123> they shouldn't, I mean a torrent would use alot of upload and download bandy at the same time
[09:29] <xzai> if i had to buy a dell laptop should i go with the ATI card or the intel integrated gpu?
[09:29] <B123> ATI card.
[09:29] <richiefrich> quaal: ahh thats lil harder said then just changing ports for apt-get
[09:30] <khin> bash: javac: command not found
[09:30] <quaal> xzai, not ati if you plan on running linux
[09:30] <dyrne> xzai: id say intel.  i cant stand ati support on linux
[09:30] <crayzee> Where can I get php-gtk? Is it available from synaptic or must I compile it myself?
[09:30] <quaal> or maybe ati if you like living in misery
[09:30] <mjr> xzai, intel is best supported
[09:30] <xzai> i currently have an ati card and i hate it
[09:30] <quaal> intel is the only open source video card that i know of
[09:30] <ax7> dunno
[09:30] <dyrne> xzai: maybe save a little money too
[09:30] <B123> I have a ATI card installed and it works great.
[09:30] <quaal> xzai, answered your own question then
[09:30] <radoe> khin: please try "sudo update-java-alternatives --set java-6-sun"
[09:31] <MrMary> wow so i can use swap space and a swap file at the same time?
[09:31] <xzai> yea bu i havnt used the intel integrated
[09:31] <xzai> so i wanted to get both sides
[09:31] <quaal> it should be plenty good
[09:31] <quaal> linux is kinda limited as far as the games you can play anyways
[09:32] <dyrne> well there are still some great 3d games
[09:32] <crayzee> xzai, B123: I had ATI (was bearable, but didn't really work with compiz/beryl), now have nVidia, and it works like a charm (provided you remember to add the ARGB GLX visuals to xorg.conf...)
[09:32] <thekidrio> quaal, and there are a few things that allow windows games eh (wine, etc)
[09:32] <xzai> i have an ati card and i got beryl running but if i want to watch a movie i have to turn it off
[09:32] <xzai> and TVout is a no go
[09:32] <B123> I have a ATI card and im using Compiz and Beryl just fine, but that's just me.
[09:32] <quaal> thekidrio, yes crossover office installs CS and WOW
[09:32] <xzai> b123 what card do you have?
[09:32] <B123> radion 9600
[09:33] <xzai> thats what i have
[09:33] <dyrne> xzai: asus has nice laptops with nvidia cards
[09:33] <xzai> have you gotten the TV out to work?
[09:33] <xzai> i have to get a dell
[09:33] <crayzee> php-gtk anyone?
[09:33] <B123> never tried.
[09:33] <xzai> im on a budget and i get a huge discount with dell
[09:33] <quaal> xzai, have to ?
[09:33] <quaal> oh
[09:33] <B123> Compiz works great, and movies play with it on also.
[09:33] <khin> update-java-alternatives: jdk alternative does not exist: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/appletviewer
[09:33] <khin> etc
[09:34] <xzai> i think i might look at S76 and just eat ramen for a lil bit
[09:34] <dyrne> xzai: radio shack back doors are pretty easy to shim open ;] 
[09:34] <thekidrio> quaal, have you used crossover much?
[09:34] <xzai> dyrne i like how you think
[09:35] <khin> to install i typed sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin ... that should do it right? it didnt give any error msgs.
[09:35] <ZeroZiat> Hi again.
[09:36] <ZeroZiat> I still cannot setup my wireless network to work.
[09:36] <radoe> khin: no, only this one is not enough. You need sun-java6-jdk
[09:36] <mweichert> is there anyway to 'apt-get' to an alternative root?
[09:36] <ZeroZiat> Well, it works with the laptop that uses windows.
[09:36] <coolbone> anyone have a link to ubuntu docs for installing/setting up mod_ssl for apache2? tryin to stick to ubuntu docs if i can
[09:36] <mweichert> I'm unsquashed the initrd image for the alternate install and want to add wpasupplicant to the image
[09:36] <ZeroZiat> But it doesn't work with Ubuntu
[09:36] <radoe> mweichert: chroot and than apt-get?
[09:37] <mweichert> radoe: I don't have apt-get available in my chrooted environment
[09:38] <barber> I have a very important question!!! How do you make those cool ubuntu floating head avatars? :
[09:38] <barber> :)
[09:38] <radoe> mweichert: download the package and extract it manually.
[09:39] <khin> ok thanks. im good.
[09:39] <mweichert> radoe: sorry, how do I do that?
[09:39] <ZeroZiat> Bah. I'll suck it up and download the whole system again in the beta.
[09:40] <ZeroZiat> It haves better wireless stuff.
[09:40] <radoe> mweichert: dpkg-deb can do this job.
[09:40] <xzu> ppl, i have issue with my laptop bringing my wifi (ipw2200) interface up. I does not get an ip addy. If I until disable and reenable it, and then do "ifup eth1" it will go up and receive an ip address just fine
[09:41] <Cosmo_> I am trying to rescue some information from windows for my mother on her laptop, I made a partition for ubuntu and installed it and followed the guides on the forum to mount the windows partition but I can not seem to find the windows files, I'm trying to find them so I can move them to another drive on the network but I am not seeing them anywhere
[09:41] <user__> hola
[09:41] <ulisse> ciao
[09:42] <mweichert> radoe: I don't know how else to say this...

[09:42] <predaeus> Cosmo_, do you know where they have been mounted?
[09:42] <radoe> mweichert: well, thx ;)
[09:42] <ulisse> I have some problems wit an ensoniq 1371 card, it's missing /dev/dsp nd I don't get sound at all
[09:43] <mweichert> radoe: that worked perfectly
[09:43] <radoe> mweichert: Sure. Its designed for this kind of job ;)
[09:43] <ZeroZiat> Question here, I have the 6.10 Live CD, and I was wondering if 7.04 was a live CD too.

[09:44] <Ziomioslaw> hi
[09:44] <Andrew250> Hello
[09:45] <ZeroZiat> Oh, neverming, I foudn it out myself.
[09:45] <ulisse> how come my sound card is recognized but /dev/dsp is not created?
[09:46] <radoe> ulisse: how do you know it is recognized?
[09:47] <predaeus> ulisse, is there anything in /dev/snd/?
[09:47] <ulisse> radoe: I see the name in lspci and the related modules are loaded (snd_ens1371)
[09:47] <ulisse> predaeus: "seq" and "timer"
[09:48] <alecjw> hi. is there any way of getting ext4 support on my ubuntu feisty system?
[09:48] <CarlFK> "anna-install - Used to install additional, non-standard d-i components (udebs). "   http://people.debian.org/~fjp/talks/debconf6/paper   How do I find out what I can install?
[09:49] <mjr> yes, but if you really want ext4, you shouldn't have to ask that question
[09:49] <predaeus> ulisse, hm I've got some pcm* and midi* stuff there. looks like it is detected but not as a sound device then. No idea sorry. Do you know if your soundcard is supported by alsa?
[09:49] <predaeus> http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/
[09:49] <xzai> sweet the dell XPS has an nvidia card!
[09:49] <xzai> doesnt even matter now
[09:49] <ulisse> predaeus: it is an old soundblaster, it should...
[09:49] <brainiac8008> i have a lot of programs that claim to be installed by synaptic, but where or how do i run them?  these are programs that are not in my applications menu and not in my usr/share/applications/ folder.
[09:50] <Muninn> I have a question regarding hibernation in Ubuntu. Mostly, how do I get it to work?
[09:50] <enry> Opera is not working
[09:50] <jamesd> is joe (an editor) availible somewhere? its not showing up in apt-get or apt-cache search?
[09:50] <predaeus> brainiac8008, most applications you can run from anywhere in the console
[09:51] <Jowi> !info joe
[09:51] <brainiac8008> how do i run them?
[09:51] <ubotu> joe: user friendly full screen text editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.3-5 (edgy), package size 279 kB, installed size 868 kB
[09:51] <Jowi> yes jamesd, you will have to enable the universe repo
[09:51] <EdsipeR> how can I know which run level is running my ubuntu system ?
[09:51] <quaal> thekidrio, a little bit.. i've used it to install IE6 (sounds crazy but my homework requried it), office2003, and itunes
[09:51] <predaeus> brainiac8008, just type the name of the app into the console, if you don't know the exact name try typing the beginning of the name and then hit the TAB key to see what applications that start with those letters are available
[09:51] <alecjw> jamesd, have oyu added the universe repos?
[09:51] <Askar> I have installed apache2 but when I write http://localhos in firefox, nothing happens
[09:51] <Askar> Why?
[09:51] <quaal> oh, also quicken

[09:52] <Jowi> Askar, try 127.0.0.1
[09:52] <enry> somebody can help me
[09:52] <enry> Opera is not working

[09:52] <kane77> !enter | enry
[09:52] <ubotu> enry: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:53] <EdsipeR> how can I know which run level is running my ubuntu system ?
[09:53] <Jowi> Askar, restart apache and see if you get any errors: sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart
[09:53] <wolly> ciao a tutti
[09:53] <Askar> Jowi: * /usr/sbin/apachectl is not executable, exiting...                     [fail] 
[09:53] <ompaul> !it
[09:53] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[09:53] <brainiac8008> predaeus, it isn't there.  there are a lot of programs that have green boxes in synaptic that are not there.  the green boxes do mean installed, right?
[09:53] <alecjw> EdsipeR, 0 if its off, 1 if its in single user com,mand line (as root), 2 if oyu have a graphical environment running and 6 if its restarting
[09:54] <Jowi> Askar, I don't know why you get that error but it seems to be the reason why apache is not running.
[09:54] <EdsipeR> alecjw, I'm inside a unknow ubuntu server
[09:54] <Muninn> I have a question regarding hibernation in Ubuntu. Mostly, how do I get it to work?
[09:54] <EdsipeR> using a ssh
[09:54] <alecjw> EdsipeR, ah. are you root? if not, its level 2
[09:54] <EdsipeR> yeah, root
[09:54] <predaeus> EdsipeR, execute "runlevel"
[09:54] <Askar> Jowi..hmm yeah..doesnt help to reinstall either..
[09:54] <EdsipeR> predaeus, runlevel output: unknow
[09:55] <Jowi> Askar, ls -la /usr/sbin/apachectl
[09:55] <alecjw> EdsipeR, if it has ssh and networkign working, proably 2
[09:55] <Apollo^101> i cant see some packages like 'reconstructor' in adept package manager of kubuntu. why is that?
[09:55] <Askar> Jowi: there is no such file..
[09:55] <predaeus> brainiac8008, not all of them are applications the "lib..." things are libraries and there is other stuff aswell that are not applications
[09:55] <Askar> :S
[09:55] <predaeus> brainiac8008, what are you looking for specifically?
[09:56] <brainiac8008> predaeus, for example, gnome-pilot
[09:56] <Askar> askar: hmm thats strange?
[09:56] <Jowi> Askar, ls -la /usr/sbin/apache2ctl (notice the change in name)
[09:56] <brainiac8008> predaeus, it says it's an applet
[09:57] <Askar> Jowi:   -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3404 2007-01-15 19:11 /usr/sbin/apache2ctl
[09:57] <Mike_F> hello
[09:57] <enry> help meeeeeeee
[09:57] <Askar> Jowi: ah wrote restart apache2 instead :)
[09:57] <Mike_F> does anyone know if you can copy a live cd to a usb key drive and boot from it ?
[09:57] <Jowi> Askar, ok, that exist. let's symlink it. "sudo ln -s /usr/sbin/apachectl /usr/sbin/apache2ctl
[09:57] <Andrew250> Hello, I have a very noob question as I'm new to Linux and I'm in the process of choosing a distro.  I'm currently comparing Ubuntu and OpenSuSe so if any one has any comments on that I would be thankful.  But my Linux question is if I'm using a Linux OS can it read files on a second HD that is NTFS formated?
[09:57] <predaeus> brainiac8008, well if it is an applet then you can add it to the gnome-panel with right clicking on the panel and selecting Add to panel
[09:58] <Askar> Jowi..no need.. I restarted the server and now it works ;) thanks for the help!
[09:58] <carlosqueso> Andrew250 yes it can read.  to write, you'll need to do some work
[09:58] <Jowi> Askar, ok. strange though :)
[09:58] <predaeus> Mike_F, I think that depends on whether your BIOS can boot from USB drives
[09:58] <Andrew250> oh
[09:58] <Andrew250> How difficult is it to get it to write?
[09:59] <carlosqueso> !ntfs-3g | Andrew250
[09:59] <ubotu> Andrew250: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but please remember to keep backups of critical data. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[09:59] <carlosqueso> that's what you need
[09:59] <Mike_F> okay i think it can what to i do
[09:59] <adaptr> Andrew250: varying between dangerous and destructive
[09:59] <Andrew250> thank you
[09:59] <Tweek888> hey, I get this error when I try playing a dvd, I installed the newest version of libdvdread I could find
[09:59] <Tweek888> http://rafb.net/p/BphVbf45.html
[09:59] <carlosqueso> np
[09:59] <Tweek888> but it still uses the old one
[09:59] <Andrew250> destructive!?
[09:59] <brainiac8008> predaeus, i can't i think because it says in the description, "gnome-pilot is a GNOME applet with a daemon that monitors for connections from a PalmOS-based device."  When I connect a Palm Pilot, it would pick it up.
[10:00] <jamesd> alecjw  what are universal  repos? are they covered in a FAQ?
[10:00] <Apollo^101> how to add all the worlds reopsitores
[10:00] <Mike_F> predaeus: I sure the system can do that do I just copy the iso image to the key drive as if it was a blank disk?
[10:00] <slavik> is there a way to use wins for reverse name lookup?
[10:00] <Andrew250> it it smarter just to convert to FAT32
[10:00] <vox754> !repo
[10:00] <predaeus> Mike_F, I do not know sorry. Probably the content of the iso. No ida.
[10:00] <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
[10:00] <adaptr> Mike_F: well, it has to actually *be* a blank disk for that to work
[10:00] <predaeus> idea*
[10:01] <predaeus> adaptr, it is a USB stick
[10:01] <Askar> Jowi: Maybe you can help me with this to.. when I click a link to a phppage on my local server..it wants to download not open..should I install some kind of phpsupport?
[10:01] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, do you already have data on that NTFS drive?
[10:01] <Tweek888> has anyone seen this error with libdvdread? http://rafb.net/p/BphVbf45.html
[10:01] <adaptr> predaeus: still, it has to be formatted with somehting, ergo: blank disk
[10:01] <Andrew250> yes
[10:01] <Andrew250> 2 different drives
[10:01] <Jowi> Askar, no idea about php
[10:01] <n0cTurNuLL> good eve
[10:01] <Mike_F> the usb drive is formated fat32
[10:02] <alecjw> jamesd, go to system>administration>software sources and tick the "community maintained (universe)" box
[10:02] <n0cTurNuLL> may i know how to install beryl please
[10:02] <n0cTurNuLL> anyone??
[10:02] <alecjw> n0cTurNuLL, #ubuntu-effects
[10:02] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, then it's not really safe to convert that drive, but if you're dual-booting, you could put a fat32 partition on the free space
[10:02] <Jowi> !beryl | n0cTurNuLL
[10:02] <ubotu> n0cTurNuLL: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects

[10:03] <n0cTurNuLL> man this is a lot of reading
[10:03] <thekidrio> reading is good for the mind and bad for the eyes
[10:03] <thekidrio> you make the call
[10:03] <Tweek888> is anyone free? D:
[10:03] <Andrew250> I can safely formate one by moving the data to the second drive but the second drive is my backup drive and I want to beable to back my Linux OS on it.
[10:03] <goldstein> hello
[10:04] <Pelo> err yes ?...
[10:04] <Jowi> !anyone
[10:04] <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?
[10:04] <Andrew250> Carlospueso, why did you choose Ubuntu?
[10:04] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, if you're only going to access it from linux I'd probably use ext3, it's a more stable file system
[10:04] <goldstein> Pelo, why?
[10:04] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, I tried quite a few distros, ubuntu has the best community support
[10:05] <carlosqueso> and my laptop's keys worked
[10:05] <Panzer_> I think same ubuntu is easy to ask questions on
[10:05] <Andrew250> I want to create a tri-boot system with XP, Linux, and OSX. What file system should I use for my data drives.
[10:05] <leshowski> se habla espaol?
[10:05] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, fat32
[10:05] <Andrew250> ok
[10:05] <carlosqueso> every one can read it
[10:05] <Pelo> Andrew250,   fat32 is supported by all 3 os
[10:06] <brainiac8008> i have an nvidia geforce 4 MX 64mb graphics card installed as part of my motherboard.  My 3-d graphics do not work well at all.  They are very choppy.  I can easily tell by the screensavers.  I know that my graphics card can work well with 3d graphics because I have Windows XP on a partition and the 3d graphics on Windows work.  Any ideas/suggestions?

[10:06] <Tweek888> how do I fix this error? http://rafb.net/p/BphVbf45.html
[10:06] <Andrew250> thank you Carlosqueso and Pele
[10:06] <thekidrio> fat file system does not have a patent in germany
[10:06] <thekidrio> fyi
[10:06] <carlosqueso> np
[10:06] <Andrew250> Does Ubuntu have good support for Laptops?
[10:06] <predaeus> !es | leshowski,
[10:06] <ubotu> leshowski,: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[10:06] <thekidrio> Apollo^101, I don't think that would be wise hehe
[10:07] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, unless you have a super-obscure one, it does, although wireless can be tricky
[10:07] <thekidrio> Andrew250, I have it running on a pIII viao fairly nice
[10:07] <Pelo> Andrew250,   the support is us,  ask your question or check the forum, most questions can be answered that way
[10:07] <goldstein> i have a problem here.. i  have been using edgy with beryl for some months, but yesterdey after some updates (xorg mostly) i reboted and beryl causes X to crash when i launch it... anyone with the same problem?
[10:07] <Jowi> Andrew250, I would say yes, but I've only tried to install it on a couple "no-name" ones
[10:07] <EdsipeR> where's the inittab file in Ubuntu server 7.04 ?????
[10:07] <predaeus> brainiac8008, what does "glxinfo | grep vendor" say?
[10:07] <adaptr> EdsipeR: no longer used :)
[10:07] <Pelo> goldstein, for beryl problems ask in #beryl
[10:08] <alecjw> goldstein, #ubuntu-effects is proably the best place to ask about beryl
[10:08] <Jowi> Andrew250, (ok and a Vaio but that one I have not set up any wireless for)
[10:08] <adaptr> !upstart | EdsipeR
[10:08] <ubotu> EdsipeR: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[10:08] <Pelo> EdsipeR,   for feisty questions ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:08] <EdsipeR> adaptr, ahh, so where can I see the default runlevel ?
[10:08] <brainiac8008> predaeus. huh?  where do I find what "glxinfo | grep vendor" says?
[10:08] <goldstein> Pelo, alecjw , thx you
[10:08] <Andrew250> I'm using an Acer TM 8204 and all my data will be on external HDs as the internal HDs will be used the the three OSs

[10:08] <Apollo^101> i just installed an app recontructor. how do i run it?
[10:09] <Tweek888> how do I fix this error? http://rafb.net/p/BphVbf45.html
[10:09] <brainiac8008> adaptr, what?
[10:09] <predaeus> ah ok gone in feisty *g*
[10:09] <shazzr> goldstein: i'm trying to install and run a clean install of ubuntu + nvidia +  beryl....but it just keep failing....
[10:09] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, do you know what wireless card it has?
[10:09] <adaptr> brainiac8008: he meant you *run* that, then report what it says
[10:09] <Andrew250> let me check
[10:09] <brainiac8008> oh, hold please
[10:09] <goldstein> shazzr, i've made it, till yesterday
[10:09] <Pelo> Apollo^101, ,  you don't need to enable all the repos of the world in your system,  just enable those there and add 3rd parties one as you need them,  there is no reason to start adding a load of repos you don'T need,  besides I am not sure anyone has done a survey of sites and projects using repos to distribute their work
[10:10] <Ezep> goldstein: I see you before...
[10:10] <shazzr> goldstein: i started installing it today...could it be some error in some new code or something?
[10:10] <predaeus> brainiac8008, you can open a terminal under Applications/Accessories and the run the command there
[10:10] <radoe> goldstein: read some similiar reports like yours today. Did you install your Nvidia drivers manually?
[10:10] <brainiac8008> predaeus, it says "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

[10:11] <goldstein> shazzr, maybe. i will try to reinstall the nvidia driver.

[10:11] <brainiac8008> predaeus, how do i do that exactly?
[10:11] <bet0x> Hello, im triying to get working my Genius Slim 320 webcam without success, i tried search for help in forums too, any idea?
[10:11] <goldstein> radoe, yes. i just stop by to see if anyone else had the same problem.

[10:11] <grndslm> hey guys...is there a way to start up a program everytime with a specific nice value (priority)??

[10:12] <dazjorz> Hi
[10:12] <Tweek888> can someone help me with an error I have? D:
[10:12] <predaeus> brainiac8008, If you want to show something that is more than 3 lines long then please go to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org enter it there and post the link here
[10:12] <Andrew250> thanks
[10:12] <grndslm> Tweek888: not until you tell us what the error is
[10:12] <docgnome> is there a way to keep ubuntu from having to reload the package list so often? I'm currently on dialup and it takes forever to reload the package info
[10:12] <juegolocura> hola
[10:12] <Tweek888> grndslm, I have.
[10:12] <brainiac8008> predaeus, o, ok, hold on
[10:12] <juegolocura> hi
[10:12] <goldstein> shazzr, what about feisty fawn with compiz?
[10:12] <Andrew250> Should I wait a week for the new version to come out?
[10:12] <predaeus> brainiac8008, nah it's fine I#ve seen the output
[10:12] <dazjorz> I think my keyboard is configured incorrectly, I can't create o with umlauts anymore... When I type what worked before, I get "o. Does anybody have any idea how to configure this correctly?
[10:12] <shazzr> goldstein: i'm running edgy eft
[10:12] <Tweek888> I have pasted the rafb link a few times, http://rafb.net/p/BphVbf45.html
[10:13] <Tweek888> D:
[10:13] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, not really any reason to, I think edgy supports intel cards
[10:13] <goldstein> yes.. me too but ill probably update when it comes out
[10:13] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, but if you don't feel like upgrading....
[10:13] <juegolocura> the ubuntu the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! beryl with xgl!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[10:13] <goldstein> which is 19th :)
[10:13] <Apollo^101> Pelo, ok
[10:13] <Apollo^101> Pelo, i just installed an app recontructor. how do i run it?
[10:13] <Pelo> Tweek888,   it is usualy easier if you give a short summary of the problem and not just link to an error msg
[10:13] <carlosqueso> somebody's happy
[10:13] <bet0x> Hello, im triying to get working my Genius Slim 320 webcam without success, i tried search for help in forums too, any idea?
[10:13] <Jowi> docgnome, it should only reload the list if you chose to. if you only install/remove then it will reload it from disk and not from the internet
[10:13] <Andrew250> carlosqueso, will the new version be more noob friendly?
[10:14] <brainiac8008> predaeus, it's at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14079/ , if you haven't already seen it
[10:14] <predaeus> brainiac8008, you need to install nvidia drivers (probably the nvidia-glx-legacy for your card or maybe nvidia-glx not sure and the linux-restricted-modules)
[10:14] <Pelo> Apollo^101,   type the name of the app in the terminal ? ,  how the hell should I know
[10:14] <adaptr> Tweek888: read "mandatory if you want to have a hope in hell of getting help" for "usually easier"
[10:14] <Tweek888> Pelo, uhh, my dvd drive can not play dvds, but can read/burn cds
[10:14] <xtheblack9x> he is there a command to add to  ls      that will print page by page? so you can see it all in bash
[10:14] <Tweek888> I said what was wrong earlier.
[10:14] <Tweek888> I'll say it again
[10:14] <docgnome> Jowi: Well for some reason I have to do apt-get update all the time
[10:14] <carlosqueso> Andrew250, I think ubuntu in general is pretty n00b-freindly, but with any ubuntu, you have to be willing to go on the forums or irc to get help
[10:14] <n-iCe-> hello
[10:14] <n-iCe-> when i type ls and the file appears green how can i open it ?
[10:14] <Pelo> Tweek888,  you need to install the regular ubuntu dvd support,  use these instructions
[10:14] <rausb0> xtheblack9x: ls | less
[10:14] <Jowi> docgnome, apt-get update will reload the list from the internet.

[10:23] <elvis32> ok does anyone know how to setup ftp so someone can send me files
[10:23] <Jowi> Tweek888, it looks like a hardware error. but since you say it works fine in win and that you have installed everything necessary for dvd playback the forums are you best bet I think. I have not seen an error like that before with libdvdread
[10:23] <dyrne> SeskyGuy: just sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces  instead
[10:23] <SeskyGuy> dyrne, but file is opened for edit

[10:23] <grndslm> brainiac8008:  i think ubuntu is just moving all processors to the generic kernel
[10:23] <Tweek888> Jowi, I am pretty sure it's software error
[10:23] <Pelo> thepumpkin1979,  does the install still work ? ignore it , probably just a builder fancy
[10:23] <dooglus> 'free' reports 250MB free, yet the PC has been up for 2 days, and used heavily.
[10:23] <dooglus> how can there since be 250MB free?
[10:23] <thepumpkin1979> Pelo: i will try.
[10:24] <Jowi> Tweek888, I believe what you're telling me.

[10:27] <Korisnik> Hy, anybody can help me with Ubuntu install?
[10:27] <Pelo> Korisnik,  what is the issue ?
[10:27] <jburd> Jowi, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14081/
[10:27] <Korisnik> well, my laptop is trying to run Ubuntu
[10:28] <Korisnik> I came to graphical interface, heard the sound
[10:28] <Korisnik> and screen went blank
[10:28] <Pelo> Korisnik,  make it one line please
[10:28] <Pelo> Korisnik,  use the alternate install cd , you can download it form www.ubuntu.com
[10:28] <Korisnik> I was looking for it, have you got correct url?
[10:29] <dooglus> Korisnik: torrent or http?
[10:29] <Pelo> !alternate
[10:29] <ubotu> 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.
[10:29] <Korisnik> http please... for ubuntu 6.06 LTS
[10:29] <Pelo> damn no url ,  lowsy bot
[10:29] <thekidrio> Korisnik, or find your video card chipset and after install open console and edit the xorg.conf and restart the gdm
[10:29] <thekidrio> i had to do that myself
[10:29] <Pelo> Korisnik, chec the download section of the www.ubuntu.com
[10:30] <Korisnik> well, how to find after install if i can't install?
[10:30] <Jibber> Hi, I'm trying to re-install Ubuntu on an existing installation (giving the old laptop away to a needy friend and want to erase my info and give them a fresh install). How ever, from the desktop Install icon, after selecting the 3rd option (keyboard layout) it just hangs. Ideas ?
[10:30] <avid> can anyone link first time user to website with possible ubuntu broadcom drivers
[10:30] <dooglus> Korisnik: there's a list here: http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.10/
[10:31] <haosen> siemka
[10:31] <eegore> I am missing a module for my game port
[10:31] <dooglus> Korisnik: here for LTS: http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06.1/
[10:31] <jburd> Jowi, am I missing something?
[10:32] <SuperQ> I wonder if there are any plans to release 6.06.2
[10:32] <dooglus> what's the difference between 6.06 and 6.06.1?
[10:32] <richw> Thats what i was thinking
[10:32] <SuperQ> dooglus: some fairly important security updates
[10:32] <Jowi> jburd, no. xorg.conf look good. I'm searching in other places atm. is this a stock install of ubuntu or have you compiled your own drivers etc?
[10:32] <SuperQ> there have been others, it would be nice to have a roll-up release
[10:32] <jburd> This is a stock install
[10:32] <dooglus> SuperQ: is there any way I can upgrade from 6.06 to 6.06.1?  I'm using a live CD and casper-rw
[10:32] <richw> apt-get should do it?
[10:32] <SuperQ> dooglus: hrm.. I don't know much about upgrading live CDs
[10:33] <elvis32> the page i following dont work :( keep getting the same error
[10:33] <dooglus> SuperQ: ideally I'd like to upgrade to 7.04 when it's released, but I don't even know if it's possible
[10:33] <richw> dooglus: cant you just burn another cd?
[10:33] <SuperQ> dooglus: if you can apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade, then you're already up to 6.06.1
[10:33] <dooglus> richw: I can, yes, but what about the memory stick contents?
[10:34] <elvis32> pelo doing apt-get -f and apt-get upgrade just keeps returning the same error message every time
[10:34] <SuperQ> dooglus: I guess I never use live CDs for things other than testing installs
[10:34] <Pelo> elvis32,  give me the page
[10:34] <SuperQ> dooglus: or rescue
[10:34] <dooglus> SuperQ: I did that, but it put a load of stuff onto the memory stick.  I would prefer to be able to use a 6.06.1 CD, and use less space on the thumb drive
[10:34] <elvis32> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&forumid=9&threadid=171107
[10:35] <dooglus> SuperQ: I didn't used to either, but the hard drive died in this laptop, so I don't have much choice at the moment
[10:35] <SuperQ> dooglus: you should be able to just swap out the CD you use with teh casper-rw
[10:35] <elvis32> its that error message but i trying to install proftpd
[10:35] <avid> fastest rout to getting broadcom driver to work?
[10:35] <Flannel> dooglus: 6.06.1 is 6.06.  The only differece is the CD contents.
[10:35] <gopp> !tvout
[10:35] <ubotu> For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[10:35] <dooglus> Flannel: so its identical apart from the differences?
[10:35] <Flannel> dooglus: when you install 6.06.1 you're installing 6.06
[10:36] <Flannel> dooglus: 6.06.1 has updated packages (newer versions), and an updated installer (because the old ubiquity had some issues)
[10:36] <SuperQ> Flannel: that's not exactly true..
[10:36] <dooglus> Flannel: ubuntu is the same as the beastie boys, apart from the CD contents too
[10:36] <Flannel> dooglus: so, literally once you've installed it.  It's identical.
[10:36] <SuperQ> Flannel/dooglus: the key is to look at /etc/lsb-release
[10:36] <Jibber> Flannel- He's running a live CD I believe
[10:36] <bruenig> elvis32, the problem is with the preinst script, do you have that deb, maybe you can link to it
[10:36] <Jibber> not install
[10:36] <elvis32> i got ubuntu edgy eft
[10:36] <bruenig> !info console-common
[10:36] <Pelo> elvis32,  use synaptic to install proftpd , menu > system < admin  > synaptic package manager,  search proftpd and rightlick install,  apply
[10:36] <ubotu> console-common: Basic infrastructure for text console configuration. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.7.59ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 103 kB, installed size 864 kB
[10:36] <whaleofconfusion> is there a command line interface to KSayIt?
[10:37] <dooglus> if I could use the 6.06.1 CD, then I would need less stuff on the memory stick I think - because the memory stick only holds the differences between the CD and what's 'current', right?
[10:37] <whaleofconfusion> so that I can say a file if I want to?
[10:37] <Jibber> anyways, anyone with any ideas why I can't re-install over an existing installation ?
[10:37] <ThomasWaldmann> moin
[10:37] <Flannel> SuperQ: Fine.  The ONLY difference is the description in lsb_release.  They function identically, since they are one and the same.
[10:37] <whaleofconfusion> I want my computer to speak a file
[10:37] <ompaul> ThomasWaldmann, is that not like spam :) moin
[10:37] <Pelo> elvis32,  while you are in synaptic, also install  gproftpd  , it's a graphical interce for proftpd
[10:37] <ThomasWaldmann> why does ubunut 7.04 beta call halt with -i and -h options?
[10:37] <Jowi> jburd, did you see my question?
[10:37] <bruenig> ThomasWaldmann, #ubuntu+1
[10:38] <jburd> Jowi, ?
[10:38] <Jowi> jburd, no. xorg.conf look good. I'm searching in other places atm. is this a stock install of ubuntu or have you compiled your own drivers etc?
[10:38] <eegore> I am having trouble loading a module on my system
[10:38] <jburd> Umm.  Yes.  I did answer it.
[10:38] <ThomasWaldmann> ah, ok
[10:38] <jburd> This is a stock install of Ubuntu Edgy.

[10:42] <bruenig> elvis32, explain what you are doing exactly, all these packages are crapping out in the scripts
[10:43] <elvis32> i am trying to install aftp server so somsone can transfer me files
[10:43] <ProN00b> i need a good graphical mysql admin tool ?
[10:43] <whaleofconfusion> ok thanks

[10:43] <ProN00b> can anyone tell me a good graphical mysql admin tool ?
[10:43] <jburd> direct rendering: No
[10:43] <kylecasey> and does disabling esd cause system lockups and such?
[10:43] <ProN00b> Flannel, is that good, or did you just apt-cache search that ?
[10:43] <elvis32> e:  Sub-Process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[10:43] <Mirthy> OKay Pelo, I'll try that.
[10:43] <Flannel> ProN00b: that's mySQLs official GUI interface thingy
[10:44] <bruenig> elvis32, there is more I would hope
[10:44] <Pelo> elvis32, I can'T help you,  just ask your freind to make a torrent and email it to you
[10:44] <Jowi> jburd, in xorg.conf, can you try to comment out line 98 (Option "RenderAccel" "true"). I don't use it with my 945GM card.
[10:44] <jburd> Ok, sure.  I'll try that.
[10:45] <elvis32> bruenig pasted it to you in a pm as it would spam this chat
[10:45] <aztek> I setup a Proftp server and it works fine on the network. When I try to login from outside, it accepts my username and password but hangs or errors when trying to retrieve the home directory
[10:45] <dooglus> aztek: try using passive mode
[10:45] <aztek> woops got enter key happy. anyone know if it's a proftp or ubuntu thing
[10:45] <aztek> ok
[10:45] <lichen> so i'm running edgy and beryl, and i'm wanting to fetch some emerald themes, but it's saying i need subversion.. isn't it possible to just have the svn client install without installing all the stuff necessary to run a full repository... as in the way you can just have the cvs client without the full thing? or does it not work like that
[10:45] <lichen> because i don't really want to have exim and all that installed
[10:45] <BR> aztek, its probably your configuration
[10:45] <dooglus> aztek: it's likely that ubuntu is trying to connect to your client, and your client isn't accepting connections
[10:46] <dooglus> aztek: passive mode will fix that
[10:46] <bruenig> yeah, that is a lot of errors to work through, if it were 1 package or something, but 3 packages failing on install during the preinst or postinst script is too much
[10:46] <blackest> any idea how to diagnose why synaptic touchpad isn't working?
[10:46] <aztek> it's trying to use passive mode. Response: 227 Entering passive mode
[10:46] <aztek> then hangs on LIST
[10:46] <n0cTurNuLL> hello again
[10:46] <jburd> Jowi, all right.  I've restarted X with that line commented out.  glxinfo still says the same thing.
[10:46] <Pelo> later folks
[10:46] <elvis32> it is only happening on some ftp ones
[10:46] <dooglus> aztek: got a firewall on the ubuntu box?
[10:46] <Jowi> jburd, is this an integrated chip or is it on an ati card or something?
[10:47] <n0cTurNuLL> i tried to install beryl but it says that my video card isn't supported.....
[10:47] <jburd> it's integrated
[10:47] <aztek> Negative
[10:47] <BR> aztek, are you running a router?
[10:47] <dooglus> aztek: don't know then, sorry.
[10:47] <n0cTurNuLL> is there a way to install the beryl??
[10:47] <aztek> It's working behind a Linksys router but the port is forwarded.
[10:47] <jburd> would you like to look at Xorg.0.log?
[10:47] <Jowi> jburd, bug report it.
[10:47] <n0cTurNuLL> another way maybe
[10:47] <jburd> ok
[10:47] <BR> what ports?
[10:47] <dooglus> aztek: you'll need to forward the other ports too - the ones it's using for passive mode
[10:47] <aztek> The port I decided to use rather than the default
[10:47] <elvis32> got gftp installed but dont know how to turn that into a server
[10:47] <Flannel> n0cTurNuLL: #ubuntu-effects will walk you through it
[10:47] <aztek> Oh
[10:48] <dooglus> aztek: or stop using passive mode, and let the ubuntu box connect to the client
[10:48] <ulisse> is there a way to invoke a command on cd insertion without using a desktop environment? only in console, I mean
[10:48] <Raiden> Hi everyone, i'm trying to get Trackmania United working on linux with, i downloaded a no-dvd crack that disable starforce protection, but when i run the game, my graphic card is simply not reconized "Direct3D Hal" something instead of Nvidia..., what is the problem?
[10:48] <Jowi> jburd, i810 support so many chipsets and I've seen people running compiz on that chipset so it *should* work :/
[10:48] <BR> elvis32, gftp is the client, you need to setup a server
[10:49] <aztek> where do i find the port it is using for passive mode
[10:49] <elvis32> br i was trying but they dont seem to install on this pc
[10:49] <shawnr> Do the cards that just went legacy by nvidia work with beryl in Edgy?
[10:49] <jburd> Jowi, yeah.  I'm wondering why it shows direct rendering: no
[10:49] <aztek> that is, is it the client or server
[10:49] <BR> elvis32, which one did you try?
[10:49] <jburd> If I start beryl, X stops responding.
[10:49] <elvis32> ftpd and others
[10:49] <Jowi> jburd, yeah. you need direct rendering for beryl.
[10:49] <jburd> right
[10:49] <elvis32> cant rember there names though
[10:50] <shawnr> Do the cards that just went legacy by nvidia work with beryl in Edgy???
[10:50] <BR> maybe proftpd
[10:50] <jburd> What confuses me though is that it shows it's enabling direct rendering in Xorg.0.log
[10:51] <elvis32> br error via pm
[10:51] <Jowi> jburd, yep. it makes no sense. bug report it.
[10:51] <aztek> I disabled using passive mode on my client and it still throws an error that it can't retrieve directory listing
[10:51] <jburd> hm
[10:51] <chatzilla> in ubuntu is p2p client?
[10:51] <toulouse> eh guys, i have an athlon 64, but i am not sure whether to get the 64-bit version of ubuntu----i will be using it for desktop use only
[10:51] <PhantasyHawk> Can someone give me the command real quick to reconfigure the GUI?  Ive totally forgotten
[10:51] <Zaggynl> chatzilla, gnutellagtk
[10:51] <erUSUL> !p2p
[10:51] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network).  -  BitTorrent: see !torrent  -  Direct connect: try valknut.  -  Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[10:51] <Zaggynl> or those :P
[10:52] <jel4> toulouse, there's 64 bit version available directly from ubuntu.com and the supported mirrors
[10:52] <elvis32> lol torrent ftw
[10:52] <erUSUL> PhantasyHawk: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[10:52] <PhantasyHawk> erUSUL: thanks
[10:52] <michael117> My computer seems to be running far too slow; how can I check and stop programs/server/daemons/anything else from running (besides top)?
[10:52] <toulouse> i understand, but does the 64-bit version have all of the same features as the 32-bit one???
[10:52] <elvis32> br any ideas on the errors?
[10:52] <BR> get my msg?
[10:53] <aztek> michael117 If you're using the ubuntu desktop it has a windows "services" like interface
[10:53] <jel4> michael117, i just enable the system monitor applet and click on that whenever i need to see what's running, etc
[10:53] <elvis32> nope u registered?
[10:53] <ulisse> toulouse: I made the same question times ago, and I'm still with 32bit. It is not worth the 64 for desktop use, you barely notice the difference but you'll face lots of problems!
[10:53] <dooglus> michael117: htop is a nice top replacement
[10:53] <chatzilla> ok
[10:53] <BR> I couldnt tell you why you got those errors?
[10:53] <BR> yes
[10:53] <elvis32> never got your message
[10:53] <BR> try using this

[10:53] <toulouse> ulisse: thanks, that's what i heard from someone, and i just wanted to check and make sure that was still correct
[10:54] <ulisse> toulouse: 64 bit is good only for some kinds of apps like cinelerra or such, the others doesn't actually use the 64 bits power
[10:54] <mzracer360> I installed and setup: libapache2-mod-musicindex, libogg-dev, libvorbis-dev, libid3tag0-dev, libmad0-dev, and libflac-dev but now when I try to restart apache2 I get "httpd (pid 8527?) not running     [fail] "
[10:54] <michael117> I've also considered recompiling my kernel to get the newest 2.26.20 version and disable a lot to strip it down and make it as speedy as possible. Does this seem viable if I want speed and what are other suggestions?
[10:54] <ulisse> toulouse: and you have to fight with flash plugin, for expmple, that is only 32bit
[10:55] <jel4> michael117, what kind of processor do u have? how much ram?
[10:55] <Jowi> jburd, one last thing. can you pastebin the output of "export LIBGL_DEGUB=verbose glxinfo"? I would like to verify something...

[10:56] <elvis32> ok will not try ftp server to complicated lol
[10:56] <elvis32> will try sending via other
[10:57] <elvis32> thanks for your help
[10:57] <michael117> jel4: Yeah... there are some... well, dumb people
[10:57] <jel4> i would try disabling unnecessary services to enhance speed before looking to recompile the kenel
[10:57] <Strider149> I had a load of updates this morning, one of them was an xserver-xorg-core update. After this update I'm stuck at the gnome log-in screen. After I log-in Gnome seems to crash and reboot into the Log-in screen again.

[11:00] <Jowi> jburd, try to install the package: libgl1-mesa-dri
[11:00] <jburd> Jowi, hmm all right.
[11:00] <cables> PhantasyHawk, you have to edit xorg.conf
[11:01] <PhantasyHawk> cables: I have it open, what exactly do I change?
[11:01] <buu> So hrm.
[11:01] <jburd> libgl1-mesa-dri is already the newest version.
[11:01] <jburd>  @ Jowi
[11:01] <michael117> jel4: Not that I can recall... firefox is acting rediculously unstable at times where having 20 tabs will sometimes make it freeze and then force me to kill the process
[11:01] <buu> I installed fglrx drivers from the ATI and completely hosed x..
[11:01] <cables> PhantasyHawk, hold on a sec
[11:01] <Jowi> jburd, I think you need to restart xorg for it to take effect.
[11:02] <bburg> PhantasyHawk: Screen section, change video resolution
[11:02] <cables> PhantasyHawk, I can explain, or I can send a link to a guide... I suggest the latter.

[11:02] <cables> PhantasyHawk, follow the guide, and tell me how it goes
[11:02] <jburd> Anyway, I'll restart it again.
[11:02] <cables> PhantasyHawk, don't follow the guide actually.
[11:03] <PhantasyHawk> cables, alright

[11:06] <Jowi> jburd, yes
[11:06] <cables> PhantasyHawk, ok, now follow the guide, it's got some good info.
[11:06] <jburd> So I'll need to remove it.

[11:06] <PhantasyHawk> cables, thanks for all the help
[11:07] <Jowi> jburd, absolutely. you're using the wrong version of GLX it seems
[11:07] <jburd> all right.

[11:09] <freeza> hmm bad media maybe
[11:09] <Strider149> Can somebody please help me?
[11:09] <freeza> did you do a media test before running install?
[11:09] <maghu> Which WYSIWYG editor would you use to edit a html with a lot of position:absolute element? Or better: any tool to convert a form created with glade to html?
[11:09] <G3m1n1> the cd is clean, but i could try the media test
[11:09] <toulouse> maghu: i dont know the specifics on this one, but have you tried nVu?
[11:10] <BR> G2m1n1, could be memory
[11:10] <Strider149> Can somebody please help with an xserver-xorg-core problem
[11:10] <BR> I had that problem on some older machines
[11:10] <maghu> xtheblack9x* this seems like make-jpkg would be another command from the package called java-package
[11:10] <G3m1n1> interesting, i'll run a memtest as well
[11:11] <buu> So, I did the ati-fglrx binary magic

[11:11] <buu> PhantasyHawk: Was that vaugely directed at me?
[11:11] <Jowi> jburd, if this is a fresh install of ubuntu you should still bug report it. the ati drivers should *not* be installed for that card :(
[11:11] <jburd> What about the warning?  Can that be ignored?
[11:12] <Jowi> jburd, that warning is normal. it's only a warning and not an error. ignore it. get the same
[11:12] <jburd> Nah.  It's not a fresh install.

I am using a Dapper machine that seems to have some broken packages ... which is no big deal really.  Except that if I try to burn some data to a DVD using gnome's built in app, it tells me to insert cd-r/rw media ... but it's a dvd burner ... with a DVD in it.
[11:20] <nko> or what is the original font system of ubuntu?
[11:20] <mzracer360> can someone help me with an apache2 error I am getting when trying to restart apache

[11:21] <Flannel> nko: Believe it's Bitstream Vera.  Might be one of the other bitstream fonts though.
[11:21] <LadyNikon> hahaha
[11:21] <mzracer360> ive already asked my question2 or 3 times already I thats why I aksed it this way

[11:21] <rambo3> mzracer360, paste /var/log/apache2 and not that
[11:21] <nko> but there is a command to rescue the original style font of all system?
[11:22] <Flannel> mzracer360: how are you restarting apache?
[11:22] <Dan_472> how can I tell what kernel I have?

[11:24] <rann> hi peeps, i'm seeing someting really strange.. i'm running ubuntu lts server 6.06 for powerpc. after the last security update, apt-get upgraded libfreetype6/
[11:25] <Flannel> mzracer360: wow.  That... howto is horrible.
[11:25] <Elsabet> Im getting a "root not set" error message when trying to play a DVD - I know theres a very easy to install package to fix this, but the name escapes me atm - can anyone help me out?
[11:25] <rann> now it seems to have upgraded fine, however, there are no libfreetype*.so files in /usr/lib!
[11:25] <ra> How can I troubleshoot OpenGL problems?
[11:25] <rann> so i tried reinstalling the package by hand
[11:26] <LadyNikon> !opengl
[11:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about opengl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:26] <rann> which does not give errors, but the libs WILL NOT return to existence on my system. what gives?
[11:26] <LadyNikon> wow.. it didnt know that
[11:26] <Flannel> rann: it's libfreetype.so.6 not 6.so
[11:27] <mzracer360> Flannel: do you know of a better how-to, I really want to start streaming!
[11:27] <Ruisu> I need assistance again
[11:28] <Flannel> mzracer360: Don't edit httpd.conf, Ubuntu doesn't use it.  In /mods-available/ you should have a .load and a .conf file for mod_musicindex, check and see.
[11:28] <rann> Flannel:  dpkg -L libfreetype6 | grep libfreetype.so
[11:28] <Ruisu> My linux swap doesn't stay on
[11:28] <rann> /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6.3.8
[11:28] <rann> /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6
[11:28] <Ruisu> any thoughts?
[11:28] <Flannel> rann: right.  .so.6 not 6.so
[11:28] <Ruisu> I have to enable it everytime with gparted
[11:28] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> Hey Flannel, I see you are on assistance duty ... lucky you haha.  So what does this mean:  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly | A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
[11:28] <buu> Ok, so yeah. I have a dual head setup working fine. I install the propietary ati drivers, modify my config to use fglrx, and suddenly one monitor stops working with "Cannot display this mode"
[11:28] <rann>  ls /usr/lib/libfreetype.so*
[11:28] <rann> ls: /usr/lib/libfreetype.so*: No such file or directory
[11:28] <rann> that's my prob
[11:28] <buu> Also, the one monitor that does work does not appear to be 3d accelerated
[11:28] <sebas_> If I upgrade my Ubuntu version (from 6.10 to 7.04) when it is released, should I back-up my documents or is it a kernel-config-distro upgrade only?
[11:29] <Flannel> saif: It's a normal upgrade.  You won't need to backup, but it's never a bad idea.
[11:29] <Elsabet> Can someone give me the package names to play encrypted DVDs?
[11:29] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> sebas_: dude, I'd back up my docs first anyway, unless you have your /home directory in another partition
[11:29] <Jowi> rann, that file is in libfreetype6-dev
[11:29] <erUSUL> !dvd > Elsabet
[11:29] <Flannel> !dvd | Elsabet
[11:29] <ubotu> Elsabet: 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
[11:29] <buu> The only errors in my Xorg.log are: fglrx(1): Qutting secondary screen -- no monitor specified.
[11:29] <rann> Jowi: no way
[11:29] <rann> http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?searchmode=filelist&word=libfreetype6&version=dapper&arch=powerpc
[11:29] <buu> fglrx(1): R200PreInit failed
[11:30] <Ruisu> ack. Sorry about that.
[11:30] <buu> fglrx(0): incompatible kernel moduled detected - HW accelerated OpenGL will not work.
[11:30] <Ruisu> Anyways... Swap still stays off. anyone?
[11:30] <buu> hrm.
[11:30] <Flannel> rann: I agree that that's odd.  Since, it's obviously in that package.  Remove it with a --purge, and hen reinstall
[11:30] <mzracer360> Flannel: I didn't edit httpd.cond, I used Tragos' post from that same tread.  and I have a musicindex.load in /mods-available/
[11:30] <sebas_> ok, I was just asking because this is my first Ubuntu upgrade, since I started using it a month ago
[11:30] <pescez> hi everybody
[11:30] <Flannel> mzracer360: Ah.  I didn't read down.  Glad someone has some sense ;)  Let me read the whole thread
[11:30] <rann> flannel: exactly, i did that, it will not rea-appear!
[11:30] <Flannel> rann: usr/lib/libfreetype.so is in -dev though
[11:30] <Jowi> rann, dpkg -S give me this: "libfreetype6-dev: /usr/lib/libfreetype.so" unless you want libfreetype.so.6 which is in the libfreetype6 package...
[11:31] <pescez> does anyone of you have trouble with knetworkmanager and wireless networks??
[11:31] <pescez> i use to
[11:31] <Strider149> Can someone please help I have a dbus or HAL error
[11:31] <saif> Flannel: sorry trying to find something on the net, yes i do have ubuntu installed, it was working fine, the power went off and when i rebooted it couldn't mount the files
[11:31] <ra> buu: how did you get that message? what command are you running / log file are you looking at?
[11:31] <buu> ra: That was from /var/log/Xorg.log
[11:31] <bwanano123> hi
[11:31] <buu> ra: 'startx'
[11:31] <Flannel> saif: You can force a fsck on boot, with `sudo touch /forcefsck`  (just creating the file /forcefsck)
[11:31] <pescez> sometimes i succeed in making it work
[11:31] <bwanano123> how do i get my usb mouse to work?
[11:32] <Flannel> saif: that's handy because you're not dealing with the live environment, so it'll go faster
[11:32] <bwanano123> after boot in ubuntu, a minute later, my usb mouse no longer works
[11:32] <Bittersweet> ra: try sunning gdm rather than startx
[11:32] <BR> bwanano123, you should just plug it in, and it will automatically mount
[11:32] <pescez> but after a susped/hibernate session knetworkmanager doesn't show wireless networks anymore
[11:32] <bwanano123> it doesnt mount
[11:32] <saif> Flannel: if i do that, will add the forcefsck to that actual root? because i am currently in the live session
[11:32] <rann> Flannel, Jowi: i see that, however my point is: i do a "dpkg -L libfreetype6", i see a list of files (mostly in /usr/share/doc) and two lib entries in /usr/lib. but they are missing. reinstalling the package does not bring them back
[11:32] <pescez> and there's no way to let it see
[11:32] <ra> X works, OpenGL doesn't from today for some freaky reason
[11:33] <pescez> iwlist eth1 scan works
[11:33] <BR> unplug it, then plug it back in
[11:33] <sebas_> bwanano123: try with a different mouse, maybe the mouse has a problem
[11:33] <Flannel> mzracer360: ah, right.  Glad he got that straightened out.  Also, in the future, you don't need to symlink, use a2enmod and a2ensite to enable mods and sites.  Anyway, that wouldn't cause this issue
[11:33] <rann> i did dpkg --purge --force-depends libfreetype6 && apt-get install libfreetype6
[11:33] <Korisnik> anybody... can ubuntu run on 112 MB of RAM?
[11:33] <pescez> the net is there and the card is working but knetworkmanager doesn't want to work at all
[11:33] <battys> hows ur day bin
[11:33] <erUSUL> ra: maybe the recent xorg-core update broke it (as it did for me i use manually instaled nvida.com drivers)
[11:33] <pescez> and i want to use it because my network uses wpa
[11:33] <Bittersweet> Korisnik: YEs, but very slowly.
[11:33] <battys> im a bummer
[11:34] <Korisnik> any suggestions?
[11:34] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> HELP!!  This is driving me nuts:  Every time I try to install something, I get this:  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly
[11:34] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
[11:34] <pescez> please anybody can help me??
[11:34] <Flannel> saif: you'll need to mount your root harddrive, and make it in that partition, so if you've mounted your root partition to /media/someplace you'd touch /media/someplace/forcefsck
[11:34] <Bittersweet> Korisnik: Although, not as slowly as on 64MB. Been there done it.
[11:34] <kuhcho> anybody knows why I can't install Xchat on ubuntu 6.10 ?
[11:34] <peepsalot> does anyone here run vmware on Ubuntu?  I need to set up a windows VM for web dev testing in IE7
[11:34] <ra> erUSUL: so, if I reinstall my NVidia drivers, it should work?
[11:34] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> pescez: as you can see, it's aweful busy in here, have patience :D
[11:34] <Jowi> Korisnik, suggestion: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems
[11:34] <saif> Flannel: done, rebooting. fingers crossed!
[11:34] <ra> is that what fixed it for you?
[11:34] <pescez> Em3raldMcSquizzy, of course ;)
[11:34] <BR> peepsalot, what prob do you have with vmware?
[11:34] <rann> this happened after the last security update through apt-get
[11:35] <erUSUL> ra: it should if you instaled them manually as i did
[11:35] <pescez> peepsalot, try virtualbox
[11:35] <BSG75> why won't my ubuntu see 2 processors? /proc/cpuinfo says processor : 0
[11:35] <rann> doing a startx now gives: /usr/bin/X11/X: error while loading shared libraries: libfreetype.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[11:35] <peepsalot> i don't understand what the differences between the free vmware apps are, player and server
[11:35] <ra> I used the "envy" script, I guess it's a manual install, yeah
[11:35] <rann> is there a dedicated room for LTS?
[11:35] <erUSUL> ra: yes
[11:35] <ra> peepsalot, player is smaller and only plays.. it was the first free product
[11:35] <tidrion> where can I find a list of supported graphics cards?
[11:36] <johndoc> would this be a place where a linux n00b could get some help with ubuntu?
[11:36] <Flannel> johndoc: yep
[11:36] <slimz> hey guys, im trying to upgrade to feisty from edgy, using update-manager -c -d, but i get an authentication error, i tried usiung gpg but it didnt help, any ideas?
[11:36] <jva> how can i get the manpages?
[11:36] <thekidrio> ayup
[11:36] <BR> johndoc, most likely
[11:36] <jva> man 3?
[11:36] <thekidrio> ask away johndoc
[11:36] <peepsalot> ra, so would it be better to get server?  it can do everything that player can?
[11:36] <Bittersweet> jva: man <command>
[11:36] <ra> then VMWare decided "hey lets make our full server software free so we can compete with microsoft's now free virtual PC" so now there's too
[11:36] <thekidrio> you can get some help, but it might not be helpful :P
[11:36] <johndoc> okay keep in mind that i'm pretty n00b
[11:36] <bruenig> slimz, you are prefacing that with "gksudo" right
[11:36] <pescez> slimz, just change repositories by hand
[11:36] <slimz> bruenig: yes
[11:36] <jva> Bittersweet: it says i don't have the manpage for fread
[11:36] <BR> who isnt?
[11:36] <johndoc> i'm trying to install cedega and cvs and found a guide for it
[11:36] <jva> how do i get it?
[11:36] <bruenig> slimz, try #ubuntu+1
[11:37] <kuhcho> pls....... help.... anyone?! :(
[11:37] <johndoc> http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Cedega+CVS
[11:37] <ra> well answer is yes, however if all you want to do is play a vmware image, then I'd go for player.. it's leaner and faster
[11:37] <slimz> pescez : is that as safe?
[11:37] <Alan> Does anybody know which package contains the Mono net libraries ?
[11:37] <rann> is there a way to unpack an ubuntu package?
[11:37] <Flannel> kuhcho: xchat-gnome is in main, xchat is in universe
[11:37] <johndoc> and it tells me to apt-get a bunch of stuff and one is x-window-system-dev
[11:37] <Bittersweet> jva: try going through synaptic and try to find a package named something like: 'Documentation for fread'
[11:37] <steve_> I can't seem to run gusanos.
[11:37] <buu> Hrmph.
[11:37] <johndoc> and i get an error on that one package
[11:37] <ra> server is to manage, well, virtual servers.. as such it uses a client-server X protocol rather than drawing things directly on your screen and is somewhat slower
[11:38] <BR> what error?
[11:38] <jva> from the cli?
[11:38] <ra> what's your intended use?
[11:38] <nothlit> !ubuntu+1 | slimz
[11:38] <ubotu> slimz: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007. Beta is out! http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta Schedule: !schedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[11:38] <jva> how would i do it?
[11:38] <peepsalot> pescez, do you think virtualbox is better?  why?  i haven't heard of it before.  is it OSS?
[11:38] <BSG75> anyone know why ubuntu won't show 2 processors for a dual core Intel proc?
[11:38] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> HELP!!  This is driving me nuts:  Every time I try to install something, I get this:  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly
[11:38] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> A package failed to install.  Trying to recover (after which, it just stops and nothing gets installed)
[11:38] <nothlit> peepsalot: theres an oss version, and a binary with goodies attached
[11:38] <Bittersweet> jva: in that case: 'sudo apt-get install fread-docs', or something like.
[11:38] <nothlit> peepsalot: no arch emulation and slower though
[11:38] <kuhcho> Flannel: but I want xchat not xchat gnome........ on my previouse instalation it worked well.... and now it tells me that it's not for my i386 configuration.... :/
[11:38] <pescez> slimz, of course, change your repository entries "edgy" with "feisty" and then sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ; sudo apt-get upgrade
[11:38] <Flannel> kuhcho: right.  Enable universe, then you can get xchat
[11:39] <johndoc>  E:Couldn't find package x-window-system-dev <--is the error I get
[11:39] <buu> Gah. The only thing I changed was driver fglrx
[11:39] <saif> Flannel: Kernel panic - not syncing: no init found. Try passing init= option to kernel!    :S what option should i pass?
[11:39] <kuhcho> how?! I'm noob... help me pls... :)
[11:39] <pescez> peepsalot, i had troubles in installing vmware, tried virtualbox and it worked perfectly
[11:40] <Flannel> !universe | kuhcho
[11:40] <ubotu> kuhcho: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:40] <Jowi> johndoc, maybe you should find a different howto that is for ubuntu.
[11:40] <pescez> peepsalot, i installed a windows xp system too
[11:40] <peepsalot> ok pescez, i think i will try that first then.  thanks.  viewing virtualbox website now
[11:40] <kuhcho> i'll try.... just a sec....
[11:40] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> GGgrrrrrr ... all I want to do is just back up some documents to DVD so I can reinstall!!!!!!!
[11:40] <johndoc> Jowi:  I'll search for one
[11:41] <pescez> peepsalot, you'd better look for some tutorial though.. to get a perfect installation
[11:41] <pescez> peepsalot, ;)
[11:42] <rann> Flannel, Jawi: thanks for your time!
[11:44] <sacater> does anyone elses monitor spit 'OUT OF RANGE' at them sometimes
[11:44] <mhoney> Can someone tell me how to make Firefox stop asking me if I want to start a new session or restore previous session when I start it up?
[11:44] <Bittersweet> sacater: every time I move to my LCD
[11:44] <sacater> mhoney: well it means that you didnt exit your last one correctly
[11:45] <sacater> Bittersweet: aaaah
[11:45] <mhoney> sacater:  My LCD monitors do when I setup ubuntu on an older CRT
[11:45] <kbrosnan> mhoney: close firefox before exiting ubuntu
[11:45] <sacater> aha
[11:45] <sacater> bad ubuntu :(
[11:45] <pescez> eheh
[11:45] <sacater> hmm
[11:45] <cld2> what is the built in program to connect to a windows RDC?
[11:45] <sacater> anyone know how to stop it
[11:45] <erUSUL> mhoney: close it properly, afaics it only ask this if you kill it or it crash
[11:45] <mhoney> I don't want to exit it properly.
[11:45] <Bittersweet> mhoney: It's because the older monitors support higher res than the LCD. Like mine. LCD don't support 1280*1024.
[11:46] <Jowi> Bittersweet, mine do support that resolution
[11:46] <sacater> Bittersweet: but i reconfigured xserver for my monitor, and it still dosnt work
[11:46] <peepsalot> does anyone know about Xen, i have heard some buzz about it, but don't really know, is it not similar to vmware, virtualbox, etc?
[11:46] <mhoney> Can't I just make Firefox not care if it was shutdown properly?
[11:46] <Bittersweet> sacater: hmmm....
[11:46] <skel> anyone good with cron? I'm trying to execute something every 5 days
[11:46] <Bittersweet> Jowi: Maybe your ubuntu is set to higher res than mine.
[11:47] <Bittersweet> Jowi: And my LCD sucks. Prefer CRT
[11:47] <bruenig> mhoney, there is an option in about:config, I don't remember which one exactly
[11:47] <kbrosnan> mhoney: you can globaly turn off the tab restore, but you loose the crash protection
[11:47] <Jowi> sacater, need more info. do you simply switch monitors while ubuntu is running or do you restart in between? do you run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" after the new LCD is connected?
[11:48] <sacater> Jowi: i have done everything i can, the LCD worked fine with edgy, it was only when i upgraded to feisty beta
[11:48] <Jowi> sacater, feisty support is in #ubuntu+1
[11:48] <johndoc> does anyone in here know if i could subsitute the package x-window-system-dev with xserver-xorg-dev or xorg-dev?
[11:48] <kbrosnan> mhoney: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore#Disable
[11:48] <kazuka> when is FF gonna comeout?
[11:49] <kazuka> Fiesty Fawn
[11:49] <mhoney> April 19th
[11:50] <kazuka> really
[11:50] <mhoney> yup
[11:50] <BSG75> is ubuntu suppose to show processor: 0 and no core info for Intel Pentium D 2.66GHz dual core cpu?
[11:51] <kazuka> is it better to do a fresh install than to upgrade from Edgy Eft?
[11:51] <mhoney> no clue
[11:51] <kazuka> ill wait then on the 19th to install
[11:51] <BSG75> anyone?
[11:52] <kazuka> BSG75: i wish i have that same proc as you have
[11:52] <delmorep> i think a fresh install is always "safer"
[11:52] <Odditie> Can anyone help me out with this? I am new to Linux all together and trying to get some games to install, but having no luck. Getting no luck on getting my internet radio to work either.
[11:52] <delmorep> with anything really
[11:52] <mhoney> I have heard that it will only show 2 processors with the i386 kernel
[11:52] <PriceChild> kazuka, user preference, feisty in #ubuntu+1
[11:52] <mhoney> I mean x86 kernel
[11:53] <PriceChild> BSG75, what ubuntu are you on?
[11:53] <BSG75> kazuka: it's a nice enough proc and it was fairly inexpensive
[11:53] <BSG75> Eft
[11:53] <BSG75> it only shows one proc
[11:53] <Jowi> BSG75, "sudo lshw -C cpu" should show you logicalcpu:0 and logicalcpu:0 (meaning two cores)
[11:54] <Jowi> BSG75, should be cpu:0 and cpu:1 of course. typo
[11:54] <BSG75> Locgicalcpu:1
[11:54] <Thug-N-Me> hi all
[11:54] <BarronVon> hey folks I've been using XP and I just migrated to Ubuntu 6.10. Everything seems to work pretty well except the torrents under XP always uploaded fine on the 5 or so different wifi routers I tend to use to access the net. (I was using bitlord under xp) Now under linux I have used a couple different clients and my upload speed wont go above 1kb/s. Firewall has been disabled, tried disbaling UpnP... any suggestions?
[11:55] <Thug-N-Me> can anyone please tell me how do i make 5 cd iso`s bootable cds to one big iso file ?
[11:55] <BSG75> I will try the x386 kernel
[11:55] <BSG75> may be this generic kernel is foobar'd
[11:55] <PriceChild> BSG75, generic should have smp support
[11:55] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> BarronVon: hmm, that is a little odd.  Normally I would tell you to check the port mapping ... see if the client port matches the open port on your router.
[11:55] <Jowi> BSG75, 2.6.17-10-generic have smp suport
[11:56] <Odditie> Can anyone tell me how to get City of Heroes to install on Ubuntu? I got Wine installed, but can't get the installer for CoH to load.
[11:56] <BSG75> I know .. that's why I am confused as heck
[11:56] <mhoney> the x64 generic doesnt show multiple cpu's for a dual core... I have tried it myself
[11:56] <BSG75> even system manager shows 1 proc
[11:56] <BSG75> but this should be x32 .. not 64bit
[11:56] <BSG75> wait a sec
[11:57] <BSG75> WOOT
[11:57] <BarronVon> Em3raldMcSquizzy: ummmhmm port mapping has never been setup on any of the routers I've used in the past and I've never had any probs
[11:57] <BSG75> I don't know what I did but now I have CPU0 and CPU1 when I do lshw -C cpu
[11:57] <BSG75> :)
[11:57] <uFo-Z> question to ubuntu 7.04 users. wich mono version is in there ?
[11:57] <BSG75> never looked at a gift horse in the mouth :)
[11:57] <BSG75> thanks everyone :)
[11:57] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> BarronVon: Hmm.  Well I couldn't tell ya, other than it sounds like your torrent client is trying to use port xxxxx and your router isn't allowing traffic through that port.
[11:58] <Terminus-> BarronVon: maybe bitlord was doing something funky with the bt protocol? in any case, i've always port forwarded for bt.
[11:58] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> BarronVon: besides, I've had to go through that a time or two myself, so it comes from personal experience :D
[11:58] <AmirBlum> Hello
[11:58] <Terminus-> BarronVon: and some torrent clients tend to use random ports. i always stick to 6881-6889
[11:58] <AmirBlum> I have a question
[11:58] <bruenig> !howdy | AmirBlum
[11:58] <ubotu> AmirBlum: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:59] <BarronVon> Em3raldMcSquizzy: that's what itsounds like to me, I wonder if bitlord had a way to search for ports that might be open? is there a way for me to scan the network to see if there are any open ports usable by torrent?
[11:59] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> Terminus-: that low, eh?  I usually go for >35000
[11:59] <Flannel> uFo-Z: 1.2.3.1 - http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/devel/libmono-dev
[11:59] <bruenig> Terminus-, a lot of private trackers won't let you use those ports as they are often throttled by isps because they are the default torrent ports
[11:59] <bruenig> Terminus-, so you may want to reconsider
[11:59] <OrTigaS> hi i'm running bittorrent and reboot.... how do i restart bittorent?
[11:59] <Terminus-> bruenig: true. but my ISP doesn't filter anything. =D
[11:59] <BarronVon> Terminus-:  yes I've tried all the ports in that range
[11:59] <bruenig> neither does mine
[11:59] <Terminus-> s/luck/lucky/
[11:59] <sacater> 4/4
[12:00] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> BarronVon: that much, I don't know.  But It's usually pretty easy to check the settings (I use azureus), and find out which port it's using.  Then I log into my router (IP addy), and set that port open to azureus.
[12:00] <bruenig> or so I think, sometimes the connection will go out after 4 days of full speed torrenting, coincidence perhaps
[12:00] <BarronVon> Terminus-: I can't get anything to pass on the azureus NAT test
[12:00] <Flannel> OrTigaS: same way you started it the first time
[12:00] <Terminus-> BarronVon: have azureus set a random port and port forward that to your box. should work.
[12:00] <BarronVon> Em3raldMcSquizzy: the prob is I use coffee shop routers soi don't have access to them :-(
[12:01] <Selenolycus> Does anyone know if the latest Feisty Fawn build included any sort of firewall turned-on by default? For some reason I'm getting a no route to port 22 error when trying to SSH in or outbound.
[12:01] <OrTigaS> Flannel:  it automatically open when i downloaded file :)
