[12:00] <Crazytom> why wouldn't lspci show up as a command?  why would it say command not found, i'm trying to find out what chipset this guy has.  it would be really helpful if someone would acknowledge this. i know everything flys by in here
[12:00] <Pelo> vox754,  will do ,  devilspie seems to do it but I don'T have time to read the manual right now, I thought it was just an option I could set like    frostwire -w/3 or somerthing
[12:01] <vox754> Pelo, ok
[12:01] <bongy> I want to make an PPC64 build of Ubuntu for my Xbox 360. The current one is running a bit slow.
[12:02] <vontux> Pelo: do you use the 945, or the 915 chip for your video card?
[12:02] <Apollo101> does g4u supports norton ghost .gho files?
[12:02] <bongy> tought apt-get -b source packagename could be an short cut togeter with debootstrap but i guess i have to live with PPC32 so far )
[12:02] <Pelo> vontux,  I just checked my box and  I am using 865G , sorry,  I was mistaken
[12:02] <chalcedony> i'm on my own computer now, edgy, i want to add amsn, or fix gaim so that msn works/ how can i do this?
[12:03] <vontux> Pelo: thx anyway :)
[12:04] <atselby> Anyone here upgraded to Feisty?
[12:04] <atselby> And can say yes upgrade or no?
[12:04] <Crazytom> Nick^69, try sudo lspci -v
[12:04] <atselby> Give me an opinion of some kind etc.
[12:04] <Apollo101> atselby no
[12:04] <xelados> I'm considering it, since its version of libgphoto is supposed to be good.
[12:04] <xelados> Current edgy version is utter crap.
[12:04] <xelados> :<
[12:04] <tumi> atselby: yeah, why?
[12:04] <Apollo101> atselby do it when the final is out
[12:05] <Pelo> atselby,   go and ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:05] <bigbrother__> anyone here use a system76 laptop?
[12:05] <atselby> apollo101: i've heard that it was fine.
[12:05] <Crazytom> atselby, imho a full install is always better
[12:05] <atselby> pelo: ah, okay. sorry.
[12:05] <Apollo101> atselby it soon will. in this month
[12:05] <atselby> I'd just been told beta was stable enough but.. It's what like 10 days to release? I'll just wait.
[12:05] <Apollo101> atselby . it will be out soon. dont make any important workings in it , if you upgrade to beta. i heard it had some bugs
[12:05] <velko> atselby, i upgraded the computer of my parents from dapper to feisty overs ssh. it wasn't a smooth ride.
[12:06] <Pelo> vox754, just check the forum on starting apps in specific workspace, the only thing I found suggested devilspie
[12:06] <bigbrother__> I'm using Feisty beta and have had no problems
[12:06] <atselby> velko: alright.
[12:06] <vox754> Pelo, try it then tell me.

[12:06] <atselby> thanks for yalls input.
[12:06] <durnew> Hello.  Can someone possibly point me in the right direction please?  I've only seen this problem occur in firefox but I suspect it's something external to firefox.  Basically when i type anything in firefox it comes out properly but when i backtrack over what i just typed with the arrow keys i get weird ghost images between the characters.  I'm on Edgy btw.
[12:07] <Opiate> How do I delete a directory ?
[12:07] <durnew> Can anyone point me in the right direction please? :)
[12:07] <kazuka> can someone send me this file: libstdc++.so.6
[12:07] <Crazytom> Nick^69, it appears that noone knows why lspci -v wouldn't work or they don't care to tell me.
[12:07] <tumi> Opiate: with rmdir
[12:07] <bigbrother__> Opiate, RMDIR
[12:07] <clearzen> Opiate: either sudo rmdir or rm -r

[12:07] <Yahooadam> why dont i have /etc/mkinitramfs/modules on my HDD ?
[12:07] <bigbrother__> damn
[12:07] <Infohawk> How can I see what DNS server ubuntu is currently using?

[12:15] <kazuka> later guys
[12:15] <kazuka> thanks all
[12:15] <xelados> e1z0: Linux has a superior notepad alternative known as vim.
[12:15] <e1z0> velko, u cannot
[12:15] <tumi> task0: libgtk2.0-dev is the package name
[12:15] <xelados> Or even emacs.

[12:21] <francois> hi everyone, my kwallet doesn't keep any of my passwords or anything else after i reboot, any ideas ?
[12:21] <salty-horse> Pelo, i think you misunderstood me. i'm asking if there's an easier way to get to the panel right click menu, because it's hard to find a place where a right click won't be caught by an applet running in the panel, instead of the actual panel
[12:21] <MaNuK> hey, install help in here!!!
[12:21] <Alonea> ghaleb: have you ever updated your sources.list?

[12:22] <xelados> task0: I'm a fan of vim.
[12:22] <velko> MaNuK, you know this is not a question. right?
[12:22] <xelados> It's incredibly powerful for such a simple app.
[12:22] <xelados> It has quite a learning curve, though.
[12:22] <Seveas> xelados, vim is far from simple ;)
[12:22] <MaNuK> after booting and loading the kernel.. i got a blakc screen... and it dies right there
[12:22] <MaNuK> someone?
[12:22] <xelados> I mean simple as in its appearance.
[12:22] <task0> Seveas, xelados, mmm i don't really go with vim...
[12:22] <xelados> It's deceptive. :P
[12:22] <Seveas> task0, nvu then
[12:22] <xelados> nano?
[12:22] <xelados> gedit?
[12:23] <velko> MaNuK, could you post the last message you see on the screen?
[12:23] <ghaleb> Alonea: its not available !
[12:23] <task0> Seveas, i only want code markup
[12:23] <Alonea> can someone please telll me what I am supposed to do? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows   been following that, but I still can't seem to get grub to come up. I don't want to try something and mess it up...
[12:23] <Blast_Hardcheese> What's with the apt-get package for wine not existing for Edgy?
[12:23] <xelados> You want a WYSIWYG editor?
[12:23] <Blast_Hardcheese> The sources are there,
[12:23] <Pelo> salty-horse,  oh,  not realy, you need some room, you can move the aplets a bit to make sure you always have some available space

[12:23] <bigbrother__> http://system76.com/product_info.php/cPath/1/products_id/194
[12:23] <Opiate> francois,  what's a repos ?
[12:23] <salty-horse> Pelo, i'll file a feature request in gnome then :)
[12:24] <MaNuK> valko: the Loading black adn white screen
[12:24] <xelados> Opiate: A repo is a repository. They are servers specifically designed to provide packages for distributions.
[12:24] <task0> xelados, no, just code editor
[12:24] <francois> Opiate: repositories are central location for all your software,
[12:24] <francois> Opiate: package == software
[12:24] <MaNuK> velko: the one with the loading bar
[12:24] <task0> xelados, BUT with code markup
[12:24] <xelados> task0: Any text editor can edit HTML, CSS, PHP, etc
[12:24] <xelados> If you're referring to syntax highlighting, a few editors have plugins for that
[12:24] <velko> MaNuK, no text? no help from me (at least)
[12:24] <Pelo> salty-horse,  you can also try enabling the feature that slides the pannel in and out , you it puts a free space at each end
[12:25] <ghaleb> Alonea: thanks
[12:25] <task0> xelados, yes.. but has gedit code markup? color, parentesis find closing one, etc?
[12:25] <francois> is there a chanel for help with bash scripting ?
[12:25] <Seveas> francois, #bash
[12:25] <task0> xelados, yes i want that :D
[12:25] <xelados> I'm not sure if gedit does, but vim most certainly is capable of that
[12:25] <salty-horse> Pelo, but I have little use for those arrows and want to use all the space I can get :)
[12:25] <MaNuK> velko: i really would like more help... a little tip: i boot the cd from a VMWare from my Win, and everything OK... except for the hard disks
[12:25] <xelados> Vim comes with support for highlighting a bunch of different syntaxes, actually.
[12:25] <Opiate> How do I know what my Repo is ?  That is where I'm supposed to extract the .tar.gz to, right ? I think I'm getting conflicting stories
[12:26] <Opiate> I'm thinking there is a local repo and a server repo where you download things remotely.
[12:26] <MaNuK> velko: so, i tried to reboot the machine and boot from the cd.. and pum!
[12:26] <Pelo> salty-horse,  what solution to your problem would you like me to give you ?
[12:26] <task0> xelados, yes but is more dificult to use
[12:26] <MaNuK> velko: it dies
[12:26] <jin_> hello
[12:26] <IdleOne> !repos | Opiate
[12:26] <ubotu> Opiate: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[12:26] <xelados> task0: After you get past the learning curve you end up more productive, I've found.
[12:26] <jin_> how do you type chinese characters on Ubuntu? is it even possible?
[12:26] <Pelo> jin_,  all the time or just occasionnaly ?
[12:26] <Alonea> when I do the find /boot/grub/stage1 thing it outputs hd1,1. So I used that for root and then hd1 in setup. am I supposed to use hd0 for setup? windows is installed on first hdd, linux on second hdd
[12:27] <task0> xelados, =S
[12:27] <jin_> Pelo, occasionally
[12:27] <xelados> There's a graphical version of vim you can use that's just as powerful as regular vim.
[12:27] <salty-horse> Pelo, for example, if each applet's right click would also have a "panel options" item.. or, for example, I could shift+rightclick anywhere on the panel to get that menu.. or if there was a gnome-panel-options application
[12:27] <xelados> More friendly to the casual user, too.
[12:27] <Pelo> jin_,  you can use the caracter table in application > accessories,  or you can probably setup and extra keybaord and language support
[12:27] <MaNuK> velko: is there any chance to install it wothout the gui mode?
[12:27] <Taime1> is deluge a good bittorrent client?
[12:27] <julian-> any suggestions as to how I can get Ubuntu to auto-connect when I restart etc.
[12:28] <phaedral> am starting install of lts on amd64 laptop; wish me luck!
[12:28] <Pelo> Taime1,  seems decent enough but it is still very young,   I recommend utorrent on wine
[12:28] <klock> task0: also, gvim has plugins for lots of different programming languagues, makes alot of code writing easier
[12:28] <klock> task0: I love it
[12:29] <jhall_> woohoo still upgrading and video still works... had to plugin to a network cable though (no wireless)
[12:29] <Pelo> Taime1,  if you do want to use deluge , get 5.0 from the site, don' use the syanptic package
[12:29] <jin_> Pelo, do you mean to plug in another keyboard?
[12:29] <task0> will try gvim then, thanks xelados and klock
[12:29] <Crazytom> jhall_, what chipset do you have?
[12:29] <xelados> task0: No problem.
[12:29] <Pelo> jin_,  I mean setting up a keyboard in system > pregs > keybaord
[12:29] <velko> MaNuK, it seems installed. but you have to be more specific. nobody can help you if you don't specify more detail
[12:29] <jhall_> Crazytom: dunno for sure.. bcm something... it's a dell laptop... bbiaf... rebooting
[12:30] <Pelo> jin_,  I thnk you can have multiple keyboard configuration and switch between them as needed

[12:34] <AbuSami> ubotu: thanks
[12:34] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[12:34] <yoz> why when i use tail -f with multiple greps piped it doesnt work..but it works fine with one???
[12:34] <Yahooadam> where do u get teh ubuntu install CD not the live cd ?
[12:34] <kevinh90> they are one and the same
[12:34] <bodhisattva> ubuntu install cd is the live cd
[12:35] <M3rlinAW> does anyone know if 6.10 supports gf8800 of the bat?
[12:35] <Popof> boot on live cd and install ^^
[12:35] <Askar> !movies
[12:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about movies - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:35] <Yahooadam> so why doe the " Breezy loaded on external USB drive !" say explicitly "(using the install CD ... NOT the live CD)."
[12:35] <Askar> !shrink movie
[12:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shrink movie - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:35] <jhall> alright, time to upgrade to fiesty!
[12:35] <bodhisattva> i have had ubuntu for 4 days now, and i have to say i like it almost as much as slackware
[12:36] <Crazytom> jhall, do lspci -v and tell me what chipset you have
[12:36] <bodhisattva> and only one disc to download instead of three
[12:36] <phaedral> seems stuck at "Starting RAID devices..."; about 3 minutes now
[12:36] <gepatino> yoz: when you use tail -f it keeps reading the defined finle (after the -f), but if it recieves data from stdin it not treated as a file
[12:36] <bwald> I installed an extra SATA card and two SATA harddrives, set them up as RAID1 and mounted them as physical volumes in an LVM, but now when I boot up I get a message "/bin/lvm exited abnormally" "couldn't find device"
[12:36] <Orsenfelt> Uhm, Hi.. Is this channel to come for Ubuntu help? =)
[12:37] <kevinh90> yes

[12:38] <yoz> gepatino, im not sure what you mean by that
[12:38] <M3rlinAW> anyone know if 6.10 supports gf8800 gfx cards?
[12:38] <klock> nick^69, I have the same card
[12:38] <Orsenfelt> Ahh ok. Well, I downloaded the .iso and burnt it to a disc. I put it in, reboot and it comes up the little menu "Start/install etc" .. I press Install and get the loading screen. Then it turns to a black screen with "Booting Kernal...Ok kernal booted" (Or something to that effect) .. It then stays like that for, Well forever if I left it that long..
[12:38] <Yahooadam> well so far ive spent like 6 hours trying to install ubuntu on a USB HDD and its a complete bust
[12:38] <Crazytom> Nick^69, check out this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102

[12:39] <klock> kevinh90, are you running edgy?
[12:39] <kevinh90> klock i used to

[12:39] <yoz> i just wanna see people
[12:40] <bodhisattva> anyone got any ideas on how to print port activity to a terminal?
[12:40] <klock> kevinh90, what fixed it for me was bcm43xx-fwcutter
[12:40] <bwald> yoz, tail the result and then pass it through to sed or something to parse out whatever you don't want
[12:40] <yoz> bwald, i dont know how to do that

[12:41] <gepatino> yoz: do the same you're doing now but without the -f arg
[12:41] <Yahooadam> sigh, how the hell do u do an expert install ?
[12:42] <xelados> Yahooadam: carefully
[12:42] <yoz> gepatino, will it keep printing it out as it comes? thats what i want to accomplish
[12:42] <Nick^69> klock did is ur wirless network work ?
[12:42] <Chil1> Hello everyone, I've got a bit of a problem, I've tried all I could think of, anyone care to help?
[12:42] <yoz> gepatino, because I like watching
[12:42] <bodhisattva> xenguy thats sort of it, but i am talking more like incoming pings and stuff, like if i ping this computer i am on now from another on my network how would i see it on this computer?
[12:42] <klock> Nick^69, yes it does
[12:42] <xelados> !asking
[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about asking - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <IdleOne> !alternate | Yahooadam and please watch your language
[12:42] <ubotu> Yahooadam and please watch your language: 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.
[12:42] <gepatino> yoz, ok, i get it now
[12:42] <Yahooadam> finally a straight answer
[12:42] <Nick^69> klock with wraparound driver or NAtive driver ?
[12:43] <bwald> I installed an extra SATA card and two SATA harddrives, set them up as RAID1 and mounted them as physical volumes in an LVM, but now when I boot up I get a message "/bin/lvm exited abnormally" "couldn't find device"
[12:43] <klock> Nick^69, started out with the wraparound driver, but native works now too
[12:43] <bwald> anyone have any ideas?
[12:43] <morpheus74> When my bios detects my hard drive at start up, it detects it as: Samsung SHD-xxxxxx (APRO-5) SSI.  Does the SSI mean SCSI?
[12:43] <yoz> gepatino, yea basically i want to 'tail -f' it so I can watch..but I dont want it printing out lines that contain certain things, like 6-8 certain terms
[12:43] <gepatino> yoz: the -f flag wont help since it applies only when reading directly from a file
[12:43] <Nick^69> klock how do I install Native driver ?
[12:43] <gepatino> yoz: you could try using the watch command
[12:43] <yoz> gepatino, why doesnt grep do the job then
[12:44] <gepatino> yoz: for example, watch 'tail file | grep something'
[12:44] <klock> Nick^69, search the ubuntu forums, there is shit tons of info on there, and this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174 for the driver without ndiswrapper
[12:44] <Yahooadam> and where do u get hold of the alternate CD ?
[12:44] <joebz> i am running amd64 feisty
[12:45] <yoz> gepatino, why whats the difference between watch and tail then? and why would watch work over tail?
[12:45] <Nick^69> klock ty
[12:45] <GekiYellow> Hey all... I've been trying to install the proprietary drivers for my ATI card... and once I get them installed... The screen will freeze up (at random, I guess) except for the cursor... Anyone know what that's about?
[12:45] <klock> :)
[12:45] <gepatino> yoz: watch runs the command every two seconds (you can change it) and is very usefull for what you need
[12:45] <yoz> gepatino, its saying permission denied
[12:45] <bwald> yoz, so do "sudo" before the command
[12:45] <yoz> gepatino, still though..why would watch be able to do it with pipes and not tail?
[12:45] <yoz> bwald, i am root
[12:46] <Panzor> anyone know how to get Rage 128 Pro Ultra TR drivers for 3d?
[12:46] <gepatino> yoz: it just runs the comand every n seconds, and shows you the output
[12:46] <yoz> gepatino, its saying permission denied..and i am root
[12:47] <gepatino> yoz: what file are you trying to read?
[12:47] <yoz> gepatino, apache log
[12:47] <AbuSami> ubotu: I download some, where should I un-tar them ?
[12:48] <Yahooadam> i seriously cannot believe how you can make such a nice OS, and yet giving people anything non-standard seems to require a membership to the secret inner sanctum of somthing
[12:48] <gepatino> yoz: are you root or running watch with sudo? in that case, try doing duso -i before running watch, so you get a root shell
[12:49] <yoz> gepatino, 'cannot execute binary file'
[12:50] <yoz> gepatino, and wait a sec..watch is going to just run grep on the entire file? thats horrible?
[12:50] <yoz> gepatino, tail only spits out the incoming pieces
[12:50] <clearzen> Yahooadam: What are you looking for?
[12:50] <gepatino> yoz, you can run any command from inside watch
[12:50] <Chil1> Alright, I've followed all the guides I could find about my sound problem, and it still isn't fixed...I've tried everything I could think of, anyone have any ideas?
[12:51] <gepatino> yoz: for example: watch 'tail logfile | grep this'
[12:51] <yoz> gepatino, and why would that be better than tail -f
[12:51] <gepatino> yoz: that would run the grep only in the last lineas of logfile
[12:52] <bodhisattva> whats the problem chil1 i just got my sound working as well
[12:52] <electron> Is there a chat room discussing free energy in here?
[12:52] <yoz> gepatino, doin: tail -f file |grep "thing"  doesnt grep only the last part?
[12:52] <Chil1> Nothing at all is coming through, I can hear nothing.
[12:52] <vdrnewbie> Please, can anyone help me with vdr+xine configuration on my ubuntu6.10? After compiling i run vdr with "./vdr - P xine" but the system answers: "terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error'  what():  basic_string::_S_construct NULL not valid Aborted"  Thanks
[12:52] <Yahooadam> clearzen - i was trying to find the alternate ubuntu cd, which seems to have absolutly no reference off the main page, in the end i found out the filename and tried mirrors till i could download the file
[12:52] <gepatino> yoz: yes, but you said you have trouble adding another grep
[12:52] <bodhisattva> chil1 and you have run alsamixer in terminal and made sure nothing was muted?
[12:53] <yoz> gepatino, how do i get watch to work then
[12:53] <gepatino> yoz: and i never had that problem with whatch
[12:53] <Chil1> Yes, Everything is on except external and mic.
[12:53] <clearzen> Yahooadam: Oh, yeah. It took me a while to track it down at first too. You did find a link for it right?
[12:53] <anotherfinemess> hello world
[12:53] <yoz> gepatino, so no ideas/
[12:53] <gepatino> yoz: watch 'command' (the quotes are mandatory ifuse | or & )
[12:53] <bodhisattva> chil1 and you then saved that with alsactl 0 or some crap like that right?
[12:53] <Chil1> Yes
[12:53] <anotherfinemess> does anyone happen to know how to disable opera widgets when the program is non-responsive?
[12:54] <bodhisattva> whats your machine?
[12:54] <gepatino> yoz: first, try the tail + grep you wanth, without -f and without watch
[12:54] <jhall> um, should I replace "edgy" with "fiesty" in my sources.list before upgrading to fiesty?
[12:54] <gepatino> yoz: then run watch pasting the previous command inside wuotes
[12:54] <bodhisattva> chil1 whats your machine?
[12:55] <clearzen> jhall: No, you can simply use the update-manager to do it for you
[12:55] <gepatino> yoz: quotes, sorry
[12:55] <jin_> wow
[12:55] <smo> hi all
[12:55] <smo> does linux-restricted-modules-common is important or not?
[12:55] <Chil1> Um, what part of my machine?
[12:55] <Chil1> Sound card?
[12:55] <yoz> gepatino, i got it..don't like it very much though..let me try with all of the greps
[12:55] <jin_> inputting chinese is as easy as windows
[12:55] <jin_> :)
[12:55] <jhall> clearzen: hmmm... ok i'll try that
[12:55] <bodhisattva> yeah ok soundcard then, what you got?
[12:55] <clearzen> jhall: one sec I'll find the exact command
[12:55] <jhall> clearzen: is that functionality new in 6.10?
[12:55] <idefix> what is a socket for?
[12:55] <clearzen> No, you could do it with 6.06 as well
[12:56] <yoz> gepatino, thank you
[12:56] <jhall> damn, i have to say my computer is running faster with 6.10 over 6.06
[12:56] <phaedral> part #ubuntu
[12:56] <Chil1> I've got an on board intel ICH5 and a Dell sound blaster
[12:56] <gepatino> yoz: thats ok
[12:57] <jhall> clearzen: when upgrading 6.06 --> 6.10 i just replaced "dapper" with "edgy" in my sources.list and then upgraded... this time when changing "edgy" to "fiesty" and then "apt-get upgrade" i got ALL 404 errors....
[12:57] <aeonix> can some one give me the command on how to get Wine?
[12:57] <yoz> gepatino, is there a way to make it cover the whole terminal?
[12:57] <bodhisattva> chil1 you have installed all of your drivers yes?
[12:57] <crdlb> jhall, "feisty" ?
[12:58] <jhall> crdlb: fiesty
[12:58] <crdlb> jhall, and that's not the recommended way to upgrade
[12:58] <crdlb> jhall, it's spelled feisty
[12:58] <smo> is linux-restricted-modules-common needed realy?
[12:58] <clearzen> jhall: Yeah, it will work I used a sed command with my laptop to make it faster. But that isn't the best idea
[12:58] <gepatino> yoz: i don't think so, since it runs the command every time, it always refreshes the hole screen
[12:58] <Chil1> I'm gonna be honest, I don't know bodhis
[12:58] <jhall> crdlb: oh... damn i was thinking "i before e except after cee!!"
[12:58] <smo> i remove all headers and linux image then jst download linux-image and headers 2.6.17-10-generic ok?
[12:58] <clearzen> jhall: I know its update-manager -C for the upgrade with a gui I think
[12:58] <smo> 2.6.17-11 bad
[12:58] <Chil1> I'm completely new to linux, this is a huge learning experience for me.
[12:59] <aeonix> how do i download Wine and install it with the temmanal?
[12:59] <NewUserFylk> Hey, I need a little help with install, could some one give me a hand?
[12:59] <crdlb> aeonix, sudo apt-get install wine
[12:59] <gepatino> yoz: but it has some usefull flags, for example to highlight diffs, change the delay between runs, etc
[12:59] <hateyla> i m try to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" command .. but getting error " debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource Temporarily Unavailable. i just open a terminal not any GUI thingy.
[12:59] <bodhisattva> chil1 is this a new install?
[12:59] <wiseelben> aeonix: http://www.winehq.com/site/download-deb
[12:59] <yoz> gepatino, highlight diff.
[12:59] <salty-horse> aeonix, wine is available if you're on 32-bit :)
[12:59] <jhall> crdlb: yup, in fact it is one of those exceptions: FEISTY
[12:59] <yoz> ?
[12:59] <NewUserFylk> .....?
[01:00] <smo> sudo killall -9 debconf
[01:00] <smo> hateyala
[01:00] <norealgravity> anyone know if there is a place to get intel i810 driver for linux?
[01:00] <smo> or try sudo ps -aux
[01:00] <thegodmatt> I got a quick question
[01:00] <hateyla> ok
[01:00] <smo> look process id and kill him
[01:00] <yoz> gepatino, if its running every 1 second tailing apache log..is it possible its missing alot if its a busy site?
[01:00] <thegodmatt> so I was tryign to add more space to a backup server
[01:00] <crdlb> norealgravity, it's included with ubuntu
[01:00] <gepatino> yoz: watch -d (from man watch :)
[01:00] <thegodmatt> and I put in a new SaATA card and 2 harddrives
[01:00] <mike1980> Hi guys I can't connect to my Ubuntu server with 127.0.0.1 only with 192.168.1.102 is there a way I can get 127.0.0.1(localhost working?  I have a router
[01:00] <jhall> clearzen: i'll double check the ubuntu site
[01:00] <thegodmatt> mounted them as RAID 1 and set them as physical volumes in a LVM
[01:00] <NewUserFylk> .....
[01:00] <gils> can someone help me with the mozilla-mplayer plugin for fireforx. i got it from the repositories, i thought i had it all set up, but firefox insists on opening QT vid files with totem
[01:00] <thegodmatt> There was a power outage
[01:01] <norealgravity> crdlb ok i dont think it works properly though
[01:01] <thegodmatt> now when it boots I get an /bin/lbm exited abnormally mesg
[01:01] <norealgravity> thx
[01:01] <crdlb> norealgravity, it does and it works very well
[01:01] <wiseelben> gils: the easiest way would be to uninstall the totem-plugins
[01:01] <clearzen> jhall: I would. I'm pretty sure it's update-manager -C though. You should let me know
[01:01] <gepatino> yoz: yes, maybe, in that case i would use the -n arg in tail to ask for the last 30 or so lines
[01:01] <crdlb> norealgravity, that's the only driver available
[01:01] <norealgravity> crdlb i cant get it to run beryl
[01:01] <Deejay|Xub> cheeky, having it on autojoin :D
[01:01] <crdlb> norealgravity, yes
[01:01] <crdlb> norealgravity, you should be able to
[01:02] <gepatino> yoz: i'm testing tail -f with two greps and it doesn't works
[01:02] <crdlb> norealgravity, I can try to help you in #ubuntu-effects
[01:02] <norealgravity> crdlb it runs but all the cubes are white
[01:02] <yoz> gepatino, so do watch -n arg with no time # set/
[01:02] <gepatino> yoz: maybe tail -f also keeps the stdout open or something like that
[01:02] <jhall> clearzen: it just says, "update-manager -d" (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades)
[01:02] <NewUserFylk> What channeld do I need for help with install?
[01:02] <bruenig> NewUserFylk, here
[01:03] <clearzen> jhall: oh ok. Well I'll remeber that now
[01:03] <gepatino> yoz: try watch -n 1 'tail -n 30 logfile | grep something'
[01:03] <gepatino> yoz: it will cat the last 30 lines (before grepping them) and run every second
[01:03] <NewUserFylk> Ok, So, who wants to help me install Ubuntu over my Dell Recovery partition?
[01:03] <kevinh90> NewUserFylk: i can help a bit
[01:04] <jin_> hi, can I ask a question not related to ubuntu?
[01:04] <yoz> gepatino, ok one second
[01:04] <Otis> Howdy... newb question here, what's the comand line text editor ?
[01:04] <kevinh90> otis nano
[01:04] <Otis> thanks Kevinh90.... I had nemo stuck in my head!
[01:04] <mike1980> Hi guys I can't connect to my Ubuntu server with 127.0.0.1 only with 192.168.1.102 is there a way I can get 127.0.0.1(localhost working?  I have a router
[01:05] <ts_> howdy. I'm very new. I have a dual boot running with XP and Ubuntu. For the current one i'm using (ubuntu) the resolution is frozen at a very low rate. how do I fix this?
[01:05] <kevinh90> yw
[01:05] <gepatino> mike1980: 127.0.0.1 is only accesible from the same machine
[01:05] <klock> ts_, you can change your resolution in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:05] <gepatino> mike1980: not from a remote one
[01:06] <ts_> I went to the resolution menu and I have two options only
[01:06] <mike1980> gepatino: so I can't use 127.0.0.1 over the same network
[01:06] <klock> ts_, what kind of video carddo you have?
[01:06] <kevinh90> you find a section that has numbers like 1024x768 800x600 and 640x480
[01:06] <wiseelben> ts_: do this in your terminal: gtsudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:06] <ts_> 800x600 and 480x600
[01:06] <kevinh90> wiseelben: isnt it gtksudo?
[01:06] <wiseelben> ts_: then go down until you find all your resolutions listed and add the one you use
[01:06] <ts_> nvidia geforce
[01:06] <ts_> something or other
[01:06] <xelados> gksudo
[01:07] <ts_> okay thank you
[01:07] <wiseelben> kevinh90: it's "gksudo"
[01:07] <gepatino> mike1980: not to access that machine, in fact, 127.0.0.1 is always the same machine you are running on, its like 'self '
[01:07] <Chil1> Can anyone help me out with my sound problem?
[01:07] <klock> ts_ make sure that you have the correct resolution set for your color depth
[01:08] <wiseelben> ts_: after you do that, save the file and then reboot X (ctrl + alt + backspace) and then try to set your reso again
[01:08] <mike1980> gepatino: ah ok thanks I understand now.  I am going to have to bind mysql to 192.168.1.102 to get it working remotely then I guess
[01:08] <gepatino> mike1980: you are right. any service you want to be accesible should listen to the network adrees, not to localhost (127.0.0.1)
[01:09] <neil__> Hey guys, I need a hand. My system won't resume from standby/suspend
[01:09] <neil__> Just sits at black screen

[01:11] <AndyCR> downloads delay in the middle of downloading, sometimes for about 20 seconds at a time
[01:11] <crimsun> neil__: there are far too many possibilities

[01:13] <wiseelben> bruenig: !afk?
[01:14] <NewUserFylk> What format should the swap partition be?
[01:14] <NewUserFylk> Any one?
[01:14] <klock> NewUserFylk: swap
[01:15] <jhall> hmmm... i just upgraded to edgy and now some of my folders just display blank white screens?

[01:16] <wiseelben> !question | Chil1

[01:16] <AndyCR> should be an option to format it as swap
[01:16] <joseywales> is there an easy way to install the ATI video driver (akin to the way it's done in Windows)?  I've already tried Envy, but following the install I had a bunch of residual problems.
[01:16] <jhall> i can view it via the terminal but not via the window manager... just a blank screen
[01:16] <Chil1> Haha, well, I can't hear any sound, and i can't seem to figure out what kind of sound card I have, nor how to get the drivers for it.
[01:16] <Chil1> Its not muted, I've already checked.
[01:17] <Generation> Hy guys ok lets start off by saying i am a noob, my questions is this I have ubuntu 6.06 on my computer but I think that for somereason something is not right, how do I reinstall it with out losing what I already have, do I compile?
[01:17] <wiseelben> did you try going to: Sys --> Prefs --> Sound? In the second tab, at the very bottom, it sohuld tell you your sound card
[01:17] <dabaR_> me?
[01:18] <xelados> Generation: I suggest burning a CD or DVD of all of your important files, then attempting to reinstall.
[01:18] <kupesoft> Generation, what is "not right"?
[01:18] <Generation> some programs dont work
[01:18] <Generation> like wine
[01:18] <Chil1> Any command I could type in the terminal to figure out what my sound card is? I don't seem to have a Prefs in my Sys, I'm running edgy.
[01:18] <Generation> when I had it installed before it did
[01:18] <dabaR_> The sound worked before. I can  not get sound out of any program now. I can not see anything muted in alsamixer. What can I try?
[01:18] <Andy8372> anyone able to help me with wifi - gone through the docs but it isn't working still! :-( drivers installed - just wont connect!
[01:18] <NewUserFylk> I just got an odd warning!
[01:18] <wiseelben> Generation: did you try deleting the .wine directory in your home yet?
[01:18] <Generation> I tried to reinstall wine but still same problem
[01:18] <Generation> I dont think so
[01:19] <kupesoft> Generation, you can use Gnome Baker to create a backup CD or DVD of your stuff in /home/$USER/
[01:19] <wiseelben> Chil1: im refering to the menu bar. System -> Preferences
[01:19] <neil__> crimsun: How can I attach file to a bug report?
[01:19] <NewUserFylk> What does it mean when the file system doesn't have the expect sizes to like it?
[01:19] <PORDO> i need a quiet fan for my PC. i'm sick of loud.  this potentiometer doesn't help.  the fan is either on or off...no graduation.
[01:19] <neil__> or should I link to a pastebin
[01:19] <BFrank> does anyone know of where to go to see a list of Wireless Access Points in the GUI?
[01:19] <kupesoft> BFrank: Try installing network-manager-gnome
[01:19] <xelados> BFrank: Have you checked gnome-network-manager?
[01:19] <BFrank> hmm
[01:19] <kupesoft> BFrank: And reboot after you're done,
[01:19] <crimsun> neil__: add the attachment after you file the bug
[01:19] <Chil1> The menu bar, meaning the applications bar?
[01:19] <BFrank> why isn't that installed by default?
[01:19] <NewUserFylk> .....Why do I keep getting ignored?
[01:20] <wiseelben> Generation: you should try deleting the .wine directory first. Go to the terminal and do: "cd" then "rm -R .wine"
[01:20] <xelados> NewUserFylk: What do you need help with?
 gtk-wifi is nice program
[01:20] <wiseelben> Chil1: yes, the one on top
[01:20] <BFrank> hmm
[01:20] <Generation> ok your going to have to walk me through this
[01:20] <kupesoft> NewUserFylk: Your questions are nonsensical,
[01:20] <dabaR_> NewUserFylk: likely noone knows the answer...
[01:20] <Chil1> Yeah, I have no preferences under system.
[01:20] <conic> Chil1 try lspci
[01:20] <rjp> voltei : )
[01:20] <Opiate> I've added a repo to Synaptic and it's inactive apparently, and I can't find it in the repository list to remove it.
[01:20] <Opiate> How do I remove it... ?
[01:21] <Generation> it says  no such file or directory
[01:21] <bwald> opiate: modify the file /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:21] <xelados> Opiate: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:21] <Generation> I typed in "cd rm -R .wine
[01:21] <Chil1> 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)

[01:21] <Chil1> 02:02.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs [SB Live! Value]  EMU10k1X
[01:21] <Chil1> Those are my sound cards.
[01:22] <Opiate> There is nothing in Sources.list.
[01:22] <wiseelben> Chil1: type in gnome-sound-preferences in your terminal and look thorugh the settings
[01:22] <Linux_Galore> Opiate: edit the /etc/apt/sources.list   file and remove the line with a #  at the begining
[01:22] <BFrank> damn
[01:22] <BFrank> gmail hogs up the soundcard
[01:22] <Opiate> There are no lines at all.
[01:22] <BFrank> no wonder teamspeak wasn't working
[01:22] <Chil1> I'm on xubuntu
[01:22] <wiseelben> Generation: it's two setps, first you do "cd" then "rm -R .wine"
[01:23] <Generation> ok hold on let me try
[01:23] <Generation> ok I think it is done
[01:24] <Generation> now what do I do
[01:24] <wiseelben> try running wine again and see if it works now
[01:24] <Generation> ok
[01:24] <wiseelben> but you'll have to reinstall your apps on wine
[01:24] <Chil1> Wiseelben, any ideas...I've tried everything that I know of.
[01:24] <wiseelben> Chil1: type in alsamixer and make sure everything is on
[01:25] <Chil1> It is.
[01:25] <neil__> crimsun: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/104596 : look ok to you? Never reported a bug before :)
[01:25] <Chil1> I've done that O.o
[01:26] <whileimhere> is there a way to upgrade a program (f-spot) without compiling it or upgrading to fiesty?
[01:26] <Generation> hey what did rm-R .wine do
[01:26] <DrNic1> anyone know what the official release date for fiesty is again?
[01:26] <wiseelben> Chil1: well you have a generic sound card so it should work.. let me look
[01:26] <Generation> it seems that I got a step further in setup
[01:26] <klock> april 19th, drnicl
[01:26] <wiseelben> Generation: yeah it resets your wine preferences
[01:26] <DrNic1> cheers
[01:26] <MeTuSaLiX> where does ubuntu install the loader by default? first hdd, or the disk u install it to?
[01:27] <Andy8372> anyone help with wifi? done the tutorial but it still wont connect - drivers are installed
 and removes programs
[01:27] <Opiate> Manually going to ect/apt and opening it with gedit gets me a Read Only but when going through CLI it doesn't list anything in the file
[01:27] <Generation> cooll
[01:27] <klock> Adny8372, shoot
[01:27] <Generation> How the freak did you learn that command
 try gtk-wifi
[01:27] <aeonix> ok i got a problem when i open package manager i get E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[01:27] <wiseelben> Generation: basically, the "rm" command is the remove command
[01:27] <teethdood>  I'm looking for an ftp backup system to backup files to a webhost ftp server  with encryption (so rsync is out).  Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[01:27] <clearzen> teethdood: use ssh
[01:27] <Andy8372> it finds the wifi points - in (gnome) network manager but just doesn't connect
 then run dpkg --configure -a in a terminal
[01:28] <teethdood> clearzen, they don't allow ssh, only ftp
[01:28] <clearzen> teethdood: sftp then. Basicly the same thing
[01:28] <Generation> ok cool
[01:28] <wiseelben> Chil1: have you looked at this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=Comprehensive+Sound+Problem+Solutions+Guide
[01:29] <wiseelben> Chil1: err: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[01:29] <aeonix> PocketIRC, when i do that i get dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[01:29] <klock> andy8732, do you get an error when you try to connect?
[01:29] <CetniK> i need help :'(
[01:29] <Andy8372> no just doesn't connect
 write sudo before the rest
[01:29] <Gartra2> my kde is busted
[01:30] <CetniK> i installed bitchx through the synaptic package where do i find it? :(
 run sudo dpkg --configure -a
[01:30] <teethdood> clearzen, they don't allow any type of SSH at all, pure FTP
[01:30] <aeonix> PocketIRC, thanks
[01:30] <wiseelben> CetniK: try typing in bitchx in your terminal
 noproblem
[01:30] <SammyF> how can I set an environment variable in bash?
[01:30] <DrNic1> CetniK: bitchx is a text-mod app so it wont be in the menu, just type 'bitchx' from a command line to start it
[01:30] <bwald> teethdood: have you tried the program called "unison"?
[01:31] <bwald> it syncronzies two files, one of which can be on an ftp
[01:31] <kevinh90> CetniK: i prefer irssi
[01:31] <klock> andy8372, try using iwconfig to attach your card to the network, sudo iwconfig interface essid "network"
[01:31] <bwald> not files, directories
[01:31] <teethdood> bwald, thanks, going to check it out
[01:31] <clearzen> teethdood: Then I don't know of a method that you could transfer securely then
[01:31] <CetniK> idc what you prefer you nigger
[01:31] <clearzen> teethdood: I'm surprised they will not allow sftp however
[01:31] <xelados> !language | CetniK
[01:31] <ubotu> CetniK: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:31] <klock> wow
[01:32] <CetniK> zomg
[01:32] <CetniK> hax
[01:32] <teethdood> clearzen, it doesn't have to transfer securely, merely encrypt the files locally first, then ftp it over
[01:32] <DrNic1> truecrypt?
[01:32] <Gartra2> my kde init file is missing... ive reinstalled and nothing
[01:32] <Andy8372> that command didn't give me an output
[01:32] <SammyF> how can I set an environment variable in bash? specifically the GCC include path
[01:32] <clearzen> teethdood: truecrypt or gpg could work too
[01:33] <teethdood> ok thanks guys, going to check them out
[01:33] <vox754> SammyF, any variable with "VARNAME=/path/to/whatever:/more/paths"
[01:33] <klock> Andy8372, now try plain iwconfig
[01:33] <klock> and paste the output of the command
[01:34] <teethdood> probably a cronjob that encrypts dirs, then ftp it up would be simplest
[01:34] <task0> how can i install gvim?!
[01:34] <SammyF> vox754, thanks
[01:34] <klock> task0_ apt-get install vim-full
[01:34] <wiseelben> task0: sudo aptitude install gvim
[01:34] <vox754> SammyF, separate with colons, and you can give other path names "VAR=$VAR1:$Var2:/some/pretty/path" keep your changes in the ~/.bashrc file, just add a line like that
[01:34] <aeonix> ummm my upsater ckeeps closing
[01:34] <Andy8372> http://pastebin.ca/430413
[01:34] <clearzen> teethdood: I would set it up to only take files/dirs that have been changed as to save time and space
[01:34] <aeonix> updater*
[01:34] <task0> wiseelben, ther's not a gvim package ?(
[01:35] <wiseelben> arr nvm.. gvim is a virtual pakage

[01:37] <vox754> SammyF, use pipes, "man gcc | grep PATH"

[01:41] <Chil1> And if so, how would I download all the gnome packages needed?
[01:41] <bruenig> ubuntu is not an upgrade of xubuntu

[01:42] <Chil1> These probably seem like dumb questions but this is the second day I've ever worked with any form of linux.
[01:42] <jrib> Jump86: wait for feisty release, then upgrade to feisty
[01:43] <jtraub> task0, yes, it is available in repos. use apt-get to install it
[01:43] <wiseelben> Chil1: no, it will install gnome and other stuff, but you'll need to change your session. Just log out (ctrl + alt + backspace) and goto the options to set gnome as your session preference

[01:43] <bruenig> wiseelben, just because you are jealous of my conky dominance...
[01:43] <Chil1> It seems to me that there is more support for ubuntu.
[01:43] <jrib> Chil1: Ubuntu and Xubuntu are the same operating system and use the same software repositories.  Xubuntu just has the xubuntu-desktop installed by default and Ubuntu instead has ubuntu-desktop by default.  You can install both and have the best of both worlds with no issues
[01:43] <crdlb> Cam, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[01:43] <Cam> thanks
[01:44] <Chil1> kk so sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop should do it?

[01:44] <task0> jtraub, ok, thanks!

[01:44] <bruenig> wiseelben, turn annoying update bubble off and put it in conky, unless you can't figure that out
[01:44] <jtraub> Jump86, Feisty will be released April, 19th
[01:44] <Andy8372> ok
[01:44] <pyrak> anyone have a minute to help me mount my windows partition?
[01:44] <DjViper> Cam: np :)
[01:44] <Cam> thanks  so much

But I still can use nautilus if I want to. Can somehelp me configure this? I can't find it in preffered applications.

[01:46] <paulo> Hi,
[01:46] <DjViper> hflappy: from what I've read about it, its pretty much the same as in windows hehe
[01:46] <bruenig> !ntfs-3g | pyrak no
[01:46] <ubotu> pyrak no: 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)
[01:46] <hflappy> sorry to ask cuz i am boutz to get it and i sure don't wanna load up a windoz box since i do hate windoz

[01:46] <Ireclan> Thanks.
[01:46] <larson9999> rjg_: thunar's been crashing on me lately
[01:46] <klock> Andy8372, anything on the interface from ifconfig?
[01:46] <arrow> when I'm in a program that takes the whole screen, like Wesnoth, how can I get back to the desktop?  in windows I would push alt-tab
[01:46] <Andy8372> yeah it's got it's IP now
[01:46] <rjg_> larson9999L yeah, but how do I set it as default
[01:46] <klock> WOOTI
[01:47] <klock> Andy8372, if it has an ip now then you are good to go
[01:47] <Andy8372> cool - and it's pinging

[01:47] <DjViper> hflappy: afaik there are not that many uses of the letter Z on the english vocabulary as you describe... but hey... its your keyboard :P
[01:47] <Chil1> Well, I still can't find out how to solve my sound card issue O.o
[01:47] <Andy8372> when the PC starts will i need to do ifup or anything like that?
[01:47] <hflappy> its common for me ;)
[01:47] <hflappy> i am not an engrish major so screw it
[01:47] <Gartra2> arrow: alt tab still works, but ctrl alt arrow-key switches desktops
[01:47] <hflappy> ;)
[01:48] <klock> Andy8372, no in your /etc/network/interfaces, its set to auto, which means that it starts with the network interfaces. it will associate with your ap and everything will work.
[01:48] <arrow> Gartra2, ok, I'll try that
[01:48] <hflappy> as long as u undastand ;) lol
[01:48] <Andy8372> ok i'll reboot as a test :D
[01:48] <Andy8372> thank you - hopefully be back soon :D
[01:48] <Ireclan> Umm...Is a "usplash" the same as the Grub screen where you choose what partition to load?
[01:49] <EADG> yep
[01:49] <Chil1> Any other ideas on why my Intel AC97 won't work?
[01:49] <crimsun> Chil1: did you address the pastebin URL to me?
[01:49] <pyrak> bruenig, then,out of curiosity, why is it that I am automatically able to write to a disc on another network computer (ntfs) no problem?
[01:49] <crimsun> Chil1: if you don't preface the sentence w/ my nick, I'm likely to miss it
[01:49] <Chil1> I'm sorry, I didn't see that.
[01:49] <Chil1> crimsun: I didn't see what you put earlier O.o
[01:50] <bruenig> pyrak, don't know, I have an idea but I don't know if I could put it in the technical terms necessary to make sense

[02:03] <profoX`> pyrak: ntfs-3g works very well in both read and write, but last time I saw it it was still beta
[02:03] <crimsun> Chil1: please don't. Use pastebin as I requested.

[02:04] <klock> Z1on, lots of people here
[02:04] <ardchoille> Z1on: Shh, we're sleeping
[02:04] <kevinh90> i have a module file that was made on another machine
[02:04] <profoX`> Z1on: this is the busiest channel on freenode :)
[02:04] <kevinh90> how can I load it on this machine
[02:04] <cowbud> ahh findfs
[02:04] <cowbud> sheesh
[02:04] <cowbud> what a pain
[02:04] <cowbud> well and vol_id
[02:04] <klock> kevinh90, top

[02:04] <kkerwin> Hi. I have an issue with Ubuntu's VMware install. The vmware configuration fails as follows: http://rafb.net/p/ge4nSS73.html.
[02:04] <Viaken2> maximal: Thanks!
[02:05] <profoX`> kevinh90: well, if the module was compiled specifically for another machine (other kernel/other architecture) it might not work on this machine
[02:05] <ardchoille> I am using WindowMaker on Dapper. Anyone know how to disable the iconbar along the bottom of the screen?
[02:05] <kevinh90> it was compiled by a friend for me
[02:05] <kevinh90> since i couldnt get it to compile
[02:05] <kevinh90> at one point it worked
[02:05] <kevinh90> a few months ago
[02:06] <profoX`> kevinh90: well, if he has the same architecture as you, and the same kernel, then the module will probably work for you
[02:06] <profoX`> kevinh90: whats the module for?
[02:06] <kevinh90> mach64
[02:06] <kevinh90> dri
[02:07] <profoX`> kevinh90: DRI? as in the Direct Rendering Infrastructure?
[02:07] <kevinh90> yes
[02:07] <profoX`> kevinh90: is the default DRI that comes with ubuntu too old for your purposes?
[02:07] <kevinh90> i cant get direct rendering to work
[02:07] <kevinh90> direct rendering:no
[02:07] <profoX`> kevinh90: I see.. what card do you have?
[02:07] <pyrak> can someone quickly point me at how to start messing around with the appearance on my machine?
[02:07] <pyrak> its too mac-like
[02:07] <profoX`> kevinh90: (graphics card)
[02:07] <kevinh90> mach64(a old ati rage card)
[02:08] <profoX`> pyrak: System -> Preferences -> Themes, is a start
[02:08] <klock> kevinh90, documentation dead end?
[02:08] <kevinh90> yep
[02:08] <adrianmonk> too mac-like?!?!?!!?????
[02:08] <kevinh90> i had someone do it for me when i had edgy, but i want to be less dependant
[02:08] <adrianmonk> i just switched from mac to ubuntu, and needless to say, i had the opposite feeling
[02:08] <profoX`> kevinh90: oh... I never worked with those..
[02:08] <pyrak> thanks profox
[02:08] <tbuss> I have a external hdd mounted at media/External, how do I change it to mnt/External
[02:08] <profoX`> pyrak: of course you can also just move things around etc... you can change a lot of things..... once you get the hang of it..
[02:09] <profoX`> pyrak: also check out websites like www.gnome-look.org
[02:09] <profoX`> pyrak: and, if you still don't like the way it looks, try another desktop environment (KDE for example)
[02:09] <kevinh90> when i download the common modules thing from dri.freedesktop.org, that works
[02:09] <kevinh90> but the mach64 section wont work
[02:09] <Juancabrit1> ok profoX, sorry I'm new. The question is: to run a MS program a  tutorial i found says I have to copy the .reg file I've just exported from the "Windows box", but it says "copy that file to your Ubuntu box...", what does that means??? where exactly do I have to copy the REG file??
[02:09] <Fylk> Hey, what's the link for fixing the resolution?
[02:09] <profoX`> tbuss: change it in the /etc/fstab file

[02:09] <kevinh90> it says to make sure i have the latest kernel modules, which i have
[02:09] <profoX`> tbuss: ALT+F2 and type: gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[02:10] <vox754> tbuss, change the line on /etc/fstab from /media to /mnt
[02:10] <pyrak> profox' thanks for all your advice, on my windows setup i had a lot more screen real-estate cus i was auto-hiding meny bars, but with gnome the auto hide lags when i hover to show it again
[02:10] <cables> pyrak, that's fixable
[02:10] <tbuss> profoX`: vox754: thanks
[02:10] <profoX`> tbuss: you'll get a text editor, just change /media to /mnt, and make sure that the /mnt/External directory exists! so create that too! (in a terminal window: sudo mkdir -p /mnt/External)
[02:10] <cables> pyrak, it's just the gnome default delay settings

[02:12] <cables> pyrak, apps/panel/toplevels
[02:12] <PC-Ente> anyone get the mplayer-plugin working in opera...
[02:12] <Juancabrit1> profoX: here's the tutorial Ifound http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-adobe-photoshop-cs2-on-ubuntu-10-steps/
[02:12] <cables> pyrak, whatever's under there are your panels, you can change options for them in there.
[02:12] <PC-Ente> i tryed mplayer-plugin -3.49
[02:12] <PC-Ente> 3.40
[02:12] <PC-Ente> but dont work
[02:13] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: okay, well, the registry files of Wine, you can find those in ~/.wine/ directory
[02:13] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: that is your home folder and then the hidden folder .wine
[02:13] <profoX`> there are .reg files in it
[02:13] <crimsun> Chili: /topic
[02:13] <pyrak> cables, thanks, odd this isnt there when you right click and hit properties...
[02:13] <adrianmonk> well, evince doesn't do it -- i can't edit the fields in the PDFs
[02:14] <pyrak> cables, could you also give me a tip on how i can get disk to show under system > administration
[02:14] <cables> pyrak, Gnome likes to oversimplify things. Along with its horrible default panel settings, it can be pretty bad. I still like it more than KDE (and definitely windows)
[02:14] <cables> pyrak, right click on the menubar and hit edit menus to change what shows up in the menus.
[02:14] <Chili> crimsun: what syntax?
[02:14] <crimsun> Chili: text
[02:14] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: the howto seems simple enough.. what doesnt work?
[02:14] <Syke_> oh for christ sake, why my CPU/RAM seems to be unstable?
[02:15] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: to import the reg file you just have to type: sudo wine regedit adobe.reg
[02:15] <PC-Ente> hello ?
[02:15] <profoX`> in a terminal window
[02:15] <leandrovar> hey i`ve had some problems updating... can you pass me the site that explains how to update from 5.04 to 6.10 again and someone could help me witch my keybord the interrogation is suppose to be on altgr+w but it dosen`t work

[02:16] <ubotu> leandrovar: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:16] <pyrak> cables, hm, disk isnt there, its just weird cus the directions for mounting my windows partition refer to it (though i was able to mount the partition anyway), perhaps its an adjustment made in edgy?
[02:16] <Juancabrit1> profoX: I did, but I get this: regedit: File not found "adobe.reg" (2)
[02:16] <profoX`> tbuss: after you changed the fstab file AND you created the directory, it will get mounted correctly if you remount it..
[02:16] <cables> pyrak, i think disks manager or whatever it was was removed from edgy
[02:16] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: well, do you have the adobe.reg file?
[02:17] <Juancabrit1> profoX: yes, is there in te .wine folder
[02:17] <leandrovar> and for my keybord any help
[02:17] <pyrak> cables, lol, then how do i manage my disks?

[02:17] <drumline_> I want to run a mail server that allows multiple users to place email into a mailbox; then the administrator can view all email boxes and manipulate the emails before sending them out.
[02:17] <Fylk> That didn't help at all.
[02:18] <cables> pyrak, you can probably install it manually
[02:18] <drumline_> is that an imap server I need?
[02:18] <Fylk> Can I have a little help with getting this resolution right?
[02:18] <cables> Is there anything on Linux like a dropbox? Where anyone can write to a folder, but only one person can read?
[02:18] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: well, that's strange, so you are in the .wine folder in your terminal window, and the adobe.reg file is in there, but when you type: "sudo wine regedit adobe.reg" it says it can't find adobe.reg?
[02:18] <eeyore> if i want to use compiz do i have to just accept that most opengl apps and video playing will not function correctly or is there something I can do to improve the experience?
[02:18] <Juancabrit1> profoX: yes, what can i be doing wrong?
[02:19] <leandrovar> alguem aqui explica em potugues facilitaria...
[02:19] <tonyyarusso> cables: you could make it
[02:19] <cables> tonyyarusso, the permissions settings for that exist?
[02:19] <tonyyarusso> cables: Yeah, r and w are separate bits
[02:19] <usr13> rcoy
[02:19] <Bongo`> Is it possible to develop xna-games with qemu or vmware or is just too slow to emulate windows?
[02:19] <cables> tonyyarusso, ok
[02:19] <profoX`> eeyore: depends, what is the problem with opengl apps and video.. I expect the problems are related to AIGLX since you mention opengl and video (xv) ?
[02:19] <tonyyarusso> cables: 'man chmod' for details
[02:19] <profoX`> eeyore: video that stays static in one place, and opengl too?
[02:20] <cables> tonyyarusso, k
[02:20] <usr13> thanks
[02:20] <Fylk> Any one willing to help me make sense of why I can't get my resolution set right?
[02:20] <usr13> by all
[02:20] <eeyore> well when I'm using VLC I need to use x11 as output otherwise I get a black screen or a crash. I am using an intel card so that might be part of the problem
[02:20] <adrianmonk> another question:  how do i get a full set of manual pages?   i did 'man gethostbyname' and got nothing!
[02:20] <profoX`> eeyore: for opengl: no fix for that at the moment, but AIGLX team says they are trying to find solutions for that........ as for the video: try X11 or XShm video output; in combination with console mplayer (or frontend smplayer or the like) it will work great.. in vlc it will work fine too, but software scaling will be ugly
[02:21] <Inbilla> I'm having trouble getting my wireless network info to show up in the network-manager-gnome applet, it's a ipw2200 card, anyone have any ideas?
[02:21] <EADG> Fylk: I'll give you a hand
[02:21] <profoX`> eeyore: is AIGLX' fault, Xv and OpenGL work "behind" the compositing window manager for now
[02:21] <leandrovar> i`m getting crazy with this keyboard
[02:21] <jrib> adrianmonk: install manpages-dev
[02:21] <eeyore> profoX`: yeah i saw the software scaling is horrible
[02:21] <profoX`> eeyore: mplayer (only console version) has nice software scaling though
[02:21] <profoX`> eeyore: I use SMPlayer as a frontend for it, it works Great! (its a fairly new project)
[02:21] <profoX`> (way better than GMplayer imo)
[02:21] <eeyore> profoX`: thanks, I'll try that
[02:21] <dagat> yay gnome!
[02:22] <eeyore> one more thing, no java apps work while i'm using compiz
[02:22] <profoX`> eeyore: http://smplayer.sourceforge.net/
[02:22] <eeyore> which is a big problem as I use java a lot
[02:22] <profoX`> eeyore: I havent tested yet because I don't use java apps..
[02:22] <Juancabrit1> profoX: I copy the REG file to the .wine folder, but this "then $ recode ucs-2..ascii adobe.reg would do the trick" from the tutorial doesn't "do the trick"
[02:22] <profoX`> but I have heard the problem before
[02:22] <adrianmonk> i don't suppose there's a way to say, "if it's installed, i want its manpages as well" is there?
[02:22] <dagat> where can i find my modprobe blacklist?
[02:23] <profoX`> dagat: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist I think
[02:23] <jrib> adrianmonk: that should happen.  Only case I know it doesn't is with manpages-dev
[02:23] <eeyore> yeah, i know i should expect breakage when using bleeding edge stuff, but i was curious of the status of these problems and whether there's incentive to update to newer compiz
[02:23] <profoX`> dagat: and the blacklist-... files :)
[02:23] <eeyore> what's in feisty right now seems to be old
[02:23] <profoX`> eeyore: you mean Desktop Effects?
[02:23] <eeyore> profoX`: thanks a lot for your help
[02:23] <eeyore> profoX`: yes
[02:23] <profoX`> eeyore: thats just a MINIMAL compiz version
[02:23] <dagat> profoX`, it seems to be empty
[02:23] <profoX`> eeyore: very very very minimal
[02:23] <Juancabrit1> profoX: this is what I get: $ recode ucs-2..ascii adobe.reg
[02:23] <Juancabrit1> bash: recode: command not found
[02:23] <profoX`> dagat: what are you trying to find?
[02:23] <eeyore> profoX`: haha, so i should compile from source?
[02:24] <Fylk> Ok, still need help, can some one give me help getting the resolution right?
[02:24] <dagat> well, i want to add bcm43xx to the list, so that i can install my wireless card
[02:24] <profoX`> eeyore: well, I did, but I program in Qt :p I guess I could make a simple package with checkinstall in a moment.. if you have i386 feisty
[02:24] <Fylk> ......Any one?
[02:25] <Inbilla> I take it no-one has any ideas?
[02:25] <profoX`> dagat: just add bcm43xx to the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file then.. it should already have a few comments in the file..
[02:25] <shine> Fylk: what's wrong with ur resolution?
[02:25] <eeyore> profoX`: i do have i386, you don't have to make a package though. i've had experience with compiling
[02:25] <frood> How can I tell what video card is installed in my PC. There are no markings on the card itself. All I know is that it's an nvidia card.
[02:25] <Fylk> Its supposed to be 1240x800, can't seem to change it.
[02:25] <profoX`> eeyore: okay :)
[02:25] <eeyore> profoX`: thanks. i gather you're using compiz too then?
[02:25] <PriceChild> frood, lspci | grep VGA
[02:25] <vio> hey all :), it's good to use linux once again.. have this question: How can i upgrade aMSN from  0.94 to 0.96?
[02:25] <profoX`> eeyore: sort of.. beryl for now
[02:25] <profoX`> eeyore: but they'll merge soon again
[02:25] <profoX`> eeyore: (hooray)
[02:25] <shine> Fylk: first make sure you have the universe and multiverse repositories enabled
[02:25] <eeyore> profoX`: i have that too but it's a lot slower on my already too slow video card. i have an intel 855
[02:26] <Fylk> ....how do I do that?
[02:26] <dagat> its empty, and when i try to save it says file not found
[02:26] <eeyore> profoX`: compiz runs pretty well on it though
[02:26] <profoX`> eeyore: beryl is super fast on my (underclocked!) radeon 7500 with open source ati driver though..
[02:26] <adrianmonk> so is there no way at all to do PDFs with fill-in forms on ubuntu?!
[02:26] <profoX`> eeyore: the trick is to use 16 bit color resolution even though that looks a bit odd :)
[02:26] <profoX`> eeyore: that gives you a 3x speed boost
[02:26] <shine> Fylk: System->Administration->Synaptics Package Manager
[02:26] <profoX`> eeyore: atleast on my ATI machine
[02:26] <vio> profoX, i have a good ass system yet beryl manages to lag
[02:27] <profoX`> vio: oh? could have several reasons..
[02:27] <shine> Fylk: Select the tab on repositories (or something similar) and check all the boxes that says universe, mutliverse, etc
[02:27] <vio> runing it with xgl.. don't really know how to change that
[02:27] <profoX`> vio: well you probably can't change that.. what graphics card do you have?
[02:27] <Fylk> Shine, I'm not seeing any tab.
[02:27] <eeyore> profoX`: good tip=) and that doesn't cause loss of visual quality for some things?
[02:27] <profoX`> eeyore: weeeellll...
[02:27] <vio> 9700 pro (mobility)
[02:27] <_Puppy_> I need help with the program festival. I am trying to install it. When I first looked at it, it looked like it was already installed. But I can't open it anywhere. I found where it put files, but I can't open the program. Can anyone help? I am very new to Ubuntu so use simple words! :)
[02:28] <shine> Fylk: my bad, Settings-> Repositories
[02:28] <profoX`> eeyore: you do notice the reduced colors, especially in gradients and big shadows
[02:28] <profoX`> eeyore: but you get used to it :p
[02:28] <shine> Fylk: then check all the boxes
[02:28] <profoX`> eeyore: all in all it's not that noticeable
[02:28] <eeyore> profoX`: =) ok. i'll play around with it. thanks a lot
[02:28] <profoX`> eeyore: yea just _try_ it :p (defaultdepth setting in screen or something)
[02:28] <granger> Anybody know how to get a dell wireless card to work?
[02:28] <Fylk> They are Shine.
[02:29] <shine> Fylk: after that, open the terminal (Applications->Accesories->Terminal), then type in sudo aptitude update
[02:29] <profoX`> vio: 9700 huh.. I think you could use the experimental r300 ati driver for that and use AIGLX, but it will run slower than what you have now
[02:29] <shine> Fylk: then the actual fix, sudo aptitude install 915resolution
[02:29] <profoX`> vio: I think
[02:29] <Juancabrit1> I need to install Photoshop and I was trying to follow this tutorial http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-adobe-photoshop-cs2-on-ubuntu-10-steps/ but without luck, can anybody help me?
[02:29] <profoX`> vio: the r300 driver is not that good (yet) -- it exists from pure reverse engineering (no official ATI/AMD documentation :()
[02:30] <_Puppy_> can anyone help me find a program's start button if it is not in the applications list?
[02:30] <profoX`> vio: and your card is r300 based I think
[02:30] <Fylk> ....do what?
[02:30] <profoX`> vio: so you probably use Xgl + fglrx now.. I don't think you have a better solution for now....
[02:30] <profoX`> _Puppy_: which application
[02:30] <shine> Fylk: Applications->Accesories->Terminal
[02:30] <task0> how can i install grub on my mbr?!
[02:30] <Fylk> ARG! Proxy errors. Hold on.
[02:30] <_Puppy_> profoX, festival
[02:30] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: okay, so you miss the recode file?
[02:30] <DoubtlessDan> _Puppy_: If it's not there there's usually isn't an entry. You'll have to either manually run it from the terminal or add a menu entry
[02:31] <profoX`> _Puppy_: festival.... the speaking thing?
[02:31] <thrymr> grub will start by itself if you have 2 OS installed
[02:31] <vio> profoX': thanks for the answer, but the only thing laggin is the size-ing**
[02:31] <profoX`> _Puppy_: I think that that is a terminal application
[02:31] <shine> Fylk: then type in "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install 915resolution", without the quotes
[02:31] <granger> Anybody know how to get a dell wireless card that works on windows to work with linux?
[02:31] <profoX`> vio: well that is a known problem though..
[02:31] <_Puppy_> profoX, really?
[02:31] <Inbilla> hey guys, I'm trying to get a wireless config GUI happening under gnome, I've installed network-manager-gnome but it doesn't show my wireless interface, anyone have any ideas? this is a laptop with the ipw2200 card in it...
[02:31] <mikeconcepts> how do I start gnome control center in feisty?
[02:31] <vio> :O any link?
[02:31] <eeyore> granger: do you know the model?
[02:31] <thrymr> I have a strange problem with beryl
[02:31] <profoX`> _Puppy_: if you are referring to the tts (text to speech) library.. yes..
[02:31] <granger> 1370
[02:31] <task0> thrymr, but i want to re isntallit on my disk!
[02:31] <PC-Ente> nice everybody is irgnoring me
[02:32] <dagat> what is the command for network-gnome manager in the terminal>
[02:32] <dagat> ?
[02:32] <_Puppy_> DoubtlessDan, how do I start it in the terminal (what command)?
[02:32] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: what do you mean, gnome control center?
[02:32] <Juancabrit1> profoX: yes, I've tried saving it (abode.reg) with notepad in Windows but as ANSI, but doesn't seem to work either
[02:32] <Fylk> Shine, I'm still getting errors, any idea why?
[02:32] <_Puppy_> ok, profox
[02:32] <shine> hmm errors in the terminal?
[02:32] <Fylk> It says it can't connect through the proxy.
[02:32] <thrymr> beryl seem to work well but when I start a session with it the splash do not appear
[02:32] <granger> mini pci 1370
[02:32] <mikeconcepts> profox: http://lunapark6.com/?p=2728
[02:32] <Inbilla> dagat "nm-applet&"
[02:32] <shine> Fylk: did u type in "sudo aptitude install 915resolution"?
[02:32] <vio> thymr: did you choose xgl on the log-in screen?
[02:33] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: yes, but if you miss the recode app, you have to install it, try this: sudo apt-get install recode
[02:33] <Fylk> Yes shine.
[02:33] <eeyore> granger: if it wasn't detected automatically you will probably need ndiswrapper
[02:33] <eeyore> granger: that's a program that allows the installation of windows drivers on linux to be able to use hardware
[02:33] <granger> what is that
[02:33] <_Puppy_> DoubtlessDan: how do I start it in the terminal (what command)?
[02:33] <shine> hmm try to see if the resolution is available on the screen resolutions from System->Preferences->Screen Resolution
[02:33] <eeyore> and there was a good tutorial on how to use it
[02:33] <Fylk> Its saying i can't find anything.
[02:33] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: oh yea :) that one got removed by default
[02:33] <eeyore> granger: let me see if i still have it
[02:33] <naknomik> Is there a way to play .mov or .wmv streaming video on ubuntu?
[02:33] <dagat> Inbilla, thanks, i typed that....but my computer didnt like it!
[02:33] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: its still there though, but not visible by default
[02:33] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: I can help you "unhide" it

[02:34] <ubotu> Fylk: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:34] <mikeconcepts> profox: I'm all eyes
[02:34] <Inbilla> I'm having trouble with it at the moment though...^_^
[02:34] <Fylk> Sorry Prof.
[02:34] <Fylk> Didn't think five lines was that much.
[02:34] <eeyore> granger: it seems i don't have it
[02:35] <profoX`> Fylk: it was more ;) and this is a busy channel as is
[02:35] <eeyore> granger: but if you search for ndiswrapper mini pci 1370
[02:35] <shine> Fylk: hmm check if you had every single repositories enabled
[02:35] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: so are you in the main menu thing?
[02:35] <_Puppy_> DoubtlessDan: Do you know the command to do that?
[02:35] <vio> question: Alternative prog that is highly recommended to use irc?
[02:35] <eeyore> granger: you'll definitely find somebody who has done it already and can help
[02:35] <mikeconcepts> yes
[02:35] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: System -> Preferences -> Main Menu (or something like that, I use a Dutch translation)
[02:35] <mikeconcepts> profox: add new item?
[02:35] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: no
[02:35] <Inbilla> Anyone know how to get the network manager applet to show the wireless network details?
[02:36] <shine> Fylk: also make sure that you click the "Reload" button after checking the repositories in the Synaptics Manager
[02:36] <Fylk> Ok, doing so now.
[02:36] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: just go to the System -> Preferences thing in the list on your left
[02:36] <mikeconcepts> ok
[02:36] <Fylk> Ok, its downloading some stuff, going to take a bit.
[02:36] <tinyx> Does anybody know when 7.04 will be released?
[02:36] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: at the right you will see items, Configuration Panel (or something like that) should be in there, you can enable it there
[02:36] <mikeconcepts> profox: configuration editor?
[02:36] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: no thats not it
[02:36] <Juancabrit1> profoX: To do the change with "recode ucs-2-internal adobe.reg" or "recode ucs-2..ascii adobe.reg" do I have to be in the .wine folder? I mean "cd /home...../.wine"?
[02:36] <shine> for me, installing that fixed it right away
[02:37] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: atleast I think not
[02:37] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: I have the Dutch version though
[02:37] <shine> you might have to reboot or manually select screen resolution later
[02:37] <ben> hey
[02:37] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: did you select the Preferences menu at your left?
[02:37] <bo0koo> hey can you tell me how to restart Tor
[02:37] <bo0koo> with a command
[02:37] <ben> i want to ask a question
[02:37] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: then at your right should be the Configuration panel item, you have to put a check in front of it
[02:37] <Pobut> \quit
[02:37] <ben> what do these mean: ign hit get
[02:37] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: could be that its called different though..
[02:38] <mikeconcepts> profox I see that now
[02:38] <ben> when i do apt-get update
[02:38] <Juancabrit1> profoX: To do the change with "recode ucs-2-internal adobe.reg" or "recode ucs-2..ascii adobe.reg" do I have to be in the .wine folder? I mean "cd /home...../.wine"?
[02:38] <Fylk> How long should it take for these packages to install?
[02:38] <shine> you should always update before installing anything
[02:38] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: if you put the check in front of it, it should now be available in system -> preferences..
[02:38] <bo0koo> can somebody tell me how to restart my Tor proxy?
[02:38] <mikeconcepts> profox: it is called control center in english
[02:38] <mikeconcepts> thant
[02:38] <bo0koo> it's running in the bg
[02:38] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: yea :) thats it
[02:38] <mikeconcepts> thanks forfox:
[02:38] <profoX`> mikeconcepts: np
[02:38] <profoX`> forfox lol, have to keep that one in mind..
[02:38] <shine> Fylk: it shouldn't take that long
[02:39] <ben> ign hit get
[02:39] <ben> whats the difference?
[02:39] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: you have to be in the folder where the adobe.reg file is
[02:39] <Fylk> then something is going wrong shine. Its saying I have 1 of 13 packages to download and download time is unknown.
[02:39] <michael117> I'm having trouble with Gnome not wanting to start from the GDM. I can only get the normal cursor (not black x11 one) and it does not want to proceed from there. How can I check to see what might have went wrong or see the system's error message?
[02:39] <Fylk> Wait...it just said a file failed.
[02:40] <ben> guys
[02:40] <shine> Fylk: did you perform "sudo aptitude update" as well? If so, it may be trying to download other updates as well
[02:40] <profoX`> michael117: have you tried Xgl or tried enabling Desktop Effects ?
[02:40] <_Puppy_> how do you open a program in the terminal (I am sooooo, new to linux!)?
[02:40] <Juancabrit1> profoX: Ok, with "$ recode ucs-2..ascii adobe.reg" i get "recode ucs-2..ascii adobe.reg"
[02:40] <profoX`> _Puppy_: just type the command name
[02:40] <Fylk> I'm still doing the whole resource thing.
[02:40] <ben> profoX: what is the difference from ign, hit and get? (when i do apt-get update)
[02:41] <_Puppy_> profoX: I don't understand. (really new to linux)
[02:41] <shine> oh i see. that might take a while, don't worry
[02:41] <_Puppy_> profoX: what is the command
[02:41] <michael117> profoX`: This has nothing to do with XGL at the moment. I'm talking about regular xorg to metacity regular gnome-session
[02:41] <atbnet> _Puppy_ what are you trying to run?
[02:41] <shine> and having a couple of them failed isn't significant
[02:41] <Cam> How I just installed 6.10 on 3 computers on an ethernet..whats the best way to link them together?
[02:41] <Cam> oops
[02:42] <Cam> ignore the how
[02:42] <Fylk> Ok, good.
[02:42] <profoX`> ben: I don't know, hit is probably making contact with the website and get downloading a list of packages (index)
[02:42] <Juancabrit1> profoX: Using "$ recode ucs-2-internal adobe.reg" I get a blank line
[02:42] <_Puppy_> atbnel, festival
[02:42] <Fylk> I'm just hoping its cause I'm behind a proxy server.
[02:42] <profoX`> ben: I don't know what ign is though, I have the Dutch version, so its hard to guess :p
[02:42] <atbnet> ./festival ?
[02:42] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: thats probably okay..
[02:42] <atbnet> Cam a router maybe?
[02:42] <Cam> I have a router
[02:42] <profoX`> _Puppy_: just try to type: festival
[02:42] <Cam> theey all are working
[02:42] <ben> profoX: well thanks alot
[02:42] <Cam> I mean what sotfware?>
[02:42] <_Puppy_> ok
[02:43] <atbnet> what are you trying to do?
[02:43] <Cam> file transfer mainly
[02:43] <Cam> but I want it to be easy
[02:43] <Cam> for my roomates
[02:43] <atbnet> install an ftpd on them
[02:43] <Cam> not ftp
[02:43] <Cam> well cant they just like click on my ip?
[02:43] <atbnet> do they have windows?
[02:43] <Cam> in nautilus
[02:43] <Cam> ?
[02:43] <Cam> no
[02:43] <Cam> all 34 have 6.10
[02:43] <Cam> ubuntu
[02:43] <Cam> *3
[02:43] <profoX`> michael117: well you can check /var/log/gdm.log I think
[02:43] <snerge> Cam: NFS
[02:43] <Fylk> Ok, shine, now was was I supposed to run?
[02:43] <_Puppy_> profoX: it gives me info on festival but does not run it.
[02:44] <shine> Fylk: Open the terminal Applications->Accesories->Terminal
[02:44] <profoX`> michael117: no, /var/log/gdm, in that directory
[02:44] <profoX`> michael117: are gdm logfiles
[02:44] <Cam> NFS?
[02:44] <Cam> thanks
[02:44] <aeonix> any one here use Active worlds in Linux?
[02:44] <snerge> Cam: network file system
[02:44] <Cam> i'll check that out
[02:44] <Fylk> got that.
[02:44] <Fylk> Next?
[02:44] <Cam> okay
[02:44] <shine> Fylk: First make sure you update, so "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade"
[02:44] <harrisony> aeonix: i know someone that does
[02:44] <michael117> profoX`: By the way... how can you tell from the logfiles which one is the newest?
[02:45] <shine> this will update your aptitude so things don't go weird
[02:45] <profoX`> _Puppy_: you don't understand the purpose of festival.. it is a generic program to speak text.. it is not intended to be run by a user per se (it can be run by a user though) but its main use is for in scripts or frontends.... so what kind of application are you looking for?
 i need to know how to get it to work
[02:45] <Fylk> !Paste
[02:45] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:45] <snerge> Cam and I've read somewhere that you can also mount file system through ssh ... you might want to have a look.
[02:45] <harrisony> aeonix: how much have you got done
[02:45] <profoX`> michael117: .log is the newest one, .1 is older .2 is older..
[02:45] <Cam> I would prefer that
[02:45] <Cam> I knwo ssh
[02:45] <Cam> how to use it anyway
[02:45] <michael117> profoX`: Thanks.
 i installed it using Wine and thats all
[02:45] <profoX`> michael117: yw
[02:46] <_Puppy_> profoX: I want a application that will speak what I tell it to say. On the forums they said to follow this blog: http://blog.smr.co.in/cgi-bin/index.cgi/blogs/hacking/1135586734.html
[02:46] <harrisony> aeonix: he said it is possible with a few tricks, give me a minute and ill try call him and ask how
[02:46] <Fylk> Shine, here is what I got:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14646/
 thank you so much
[02:47] <profoX`> _Puppy_: well they give you an example to use festival, but festival is intended for power users (read: terminal users :)
[02:47] <profoX`> _Puppy_: but try this, just for fun: echo "hello world" | festival --tts
[02:47] <harrisony> aeonix: its 2am were he is so it might take a minute :P
[02:47] <michael117> profoX`: Where might I find errors put out by gnome-session itself?
[02:47] <profoX`> _Puppy_: just type that in the terminal window
[02:47] <shine> Fylk: try "sudo apt-get update"
[02:47] <hateyla> how can i restart my Xserver?
 2 am i dont want you to wake him
[02:47] <DoubtlessDan> Ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:47] <snerge> hagabaka: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (if you use gnome)
[02:48] <profoX`> michael117: I honestly don't know..
[02:48] <snerge> hateyla: replace gdm by kdm if you are using kde
[02:48] <shine> apt-get and aptitude are pretty identical things, so you're not doing anything different
[02:48] <Fylk> This is what I got: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14647/
[02:48] <harrisony> aeonix: first can you run $ wine --version
 yeah
[02:49] <cimon> stupid question...
[02:49] <hateyla> snerge: there is some probelm :< i set my resolution fine.. but when i restart my pc i lost my resolution.. and in screen resolution i miss 1024x786 field there too
[02:49] <shine> hmm... i'm not quite sure.
[02:49] <shine> did u try sudo apt-get install 915resolution?
 wine-0.9.34
[02:49] <cimon> my computer runs 6.06 ubuntu just fine
[02:50] <Fylk> Not yet.
[02:50] <_Puppy_> profoX: it kind'a worked. I realize now that festival is in it's own terminal with festival> at the beggining instead of the usual $. But nothing was said (if that was what was supposed to happen).
[02:50] <tinyx> I was wondering, many people have really cool looking taskbars.. and mine is default..
[02:50] <lufis> cimon: please try to keep everything on one line, with so many people talking usually it's easy to fragment what you're trying to say :)
[02:50] <cimon> I try 6.10 live CD and too much resources needed, it just freezes.
[02:50] <tinyx> How do I get a better looking taskbar?
[02:50] <tinyx> like this http://polishlinux.org/stuff/screenshots/ubuntu/ubuntu_kde_rad.
[02:50] <shine> try that. I don't know why you're getting these errors
[02:50] <profoX`> _Puppy_: oh thats right
[02:50] <Fylk> Got the error couldn't find package.
[02:50] <profoX`> _Puppy_: try exiting festival
[02:50] <ben> profoX`: hey, i found out what ign means. it means ignore (ignored re-downloading a Packages file because it knows it hasn't changed)
[02:50] <profoX`> _Puppy_: i don't know the command.. q? quit? exit? or try CTRL+C :)
[02:50] <profoX`> ben: ah okay :)
[02:50] <profoX`> ben: thanks
[02:51] <cimon> lufis: can I start install/upgrade straight from 6.06 without booting the live-Cd for 6.10
[02:51] <harrisony> aeonix: his not answering have you tried the guide at http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=828
[02:51] <ben> profoX`: no prob
 no
[02:51] <_Puppy_> profoX, I think this would be better PMing. is that ok?
[02:51] <lufis> cimon: i think so, yes
[02:51] <Fylk> I'm thinking is my school's proxy server.
[02:51] <profoX`> Juancabrit1: after the recode command, did you try the: wine regedit adobe.reg command?
[02:51] <harrisony> aeonix: try that and see what happens
[02:51] <hateyla> can someone help me out? there is some probelm :< i set my resolution fine.. but when i restart my pc i lost my resolution.. and in screen resolution i miss 1024x786 field there too and also lost my resolution
[02:51] <deep> My gnome broke while i was messing around with panels, and now everything is black when i log in. anyway to delete the configs and start over?
 thank you so much
[02:52] <neozen> meep
[02:52] <cimon> lufis: O suspect so too, but am kinda unsure how...
[02:52] <Fylk> I mean, its a Dell XPS m140, the native res is 1240x800
[02:52] <lufis> deep: before you log in, select the "gnome failsafe" session
[02:52] <profoX`> _Puppy_: hm in this case, I don't mind, sure
[02:52] <deus> how can i delete the mount icons on the desktop (gnome) ?
[02:52] <tinyx> I'm guessing nobody knows how
[02:52] <lufis> cimon: can you clarify what you're trying to do?
[02:52] <profoX`> _Puppy_: however, be aware that if you talk publicly in a channel, more people are able to help you
[02:52] <zaatar> Hey, I have an issue with new windows not coming to focus
[02:52] <deep> lufis: ahh, okay, thanx (: will try right away
[02:52] <zaatar> it's a pretty big problem
[02:52] <Flags> How can I transfer files to an External HDD while in Live Feisty Fawn?
[02:52] <lufis> deep: :)
[02:53] <zaatar> i'm using beryl on edgy
[02:53] <cimon> lufis: upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10
[02:53] <Fylk> This is starting to get on my nerves.
[02:53] <profoX`> Flags: mount the external HDD and copy the files?
[02:53] <lufis> cimon: you can do that once 6.06 is installed
[02:53] <cimon> Have both CD:s
[02:53] <Flags> mount?
[02:53] <profoX`> Flags: oh, okay :)
[02:53] <cimon> lufis: am currently running on 6.06
[02:53] <lufis> cimon: but it'd be better if you have both just to install it with the 6.10 disc
[02:53] <Flags> im a noob
[02:53] <profoX`> Flags: do you know which partition you want to access?
[02:53] <Flags> yes
[02:53] <Flags> wait
[02:53] <profoX`> Flags: is it ext3? or fat32? (or ntfs??)
[02:53] <Flags> ntfs
[02:53] <dimeotane> anyone know of a bash copy command that shows the progress of copying the file ?  cp doesn't give a progress indicator on this 16gb file
[02:53] <lufis> !upgrading | cimon
[02:53] <ubotu> cimon: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:53] <cimon> lufis: have the disc.
[02:54] <profoX`> Flags: because write access is NOT possible on ntfs by default
[02:54] <Flags> damn
[02:54] <Flags> so is there anything i can do?
[02:54] <profoX`> Flags: what do you need to copy to ntfs?
[02:54] <neozen> Flags: fear not... there is hope
[02:54] <Flags> just some media
[02:54] <shine> Flyk: I'm not sure why you're getting errors either, you may be right about the school server
[02:54] <neozen> Flags: research ntfs-3g
[02:54] <cimon> lufis: but just running the live-cd is too much strain on the old system...
[02:54] <shine> I'm not sure.
[02:54] <profoX`> neozen: yes there is hope, with ntfs-3g and the like, but its a bit dull to do that just for a live cd......
[02:54] <zaatar> anyone know what would make the windows not be created in focus?
[02:54] <neozen> !ntfs-3g
[02:54] <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)
[02:54] <Flags> so i cant transfer any files to the external HDD?
[02:54] <Flags> so no quick way from a live cd?
[02:54] <shine> try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=351647&highlight=915resolution
[02:54] <zaatar> or how to fix it?
[02:55] <neozen> profoX`: true
[02:55] <lufis> zaatar: have you changed some setting?
[02:55] <deus> how can i delete the mount icons on the desktop (gnome) ?
[02:55] <Fylk> Odd, its dececting.
[02:55] <stevarino> if i'm on an amd64machine, i'll never get to watch youtube, huh?
[02:55] <wasabi> Flags: You can use FAT32
[02:55] <Flags> what do u mean
[02:55] <neozen> stevarino: wait for gnash
[02:55] <jrib> !icons > deus    (deus, see the private message from ubotu)
[02:55] <lufis> stevarino: you can, although you have to jump thru a few hoops first
[02:55] <neozen> stevarino: it'll be out soon
[02:55] <profoX`> Flags: you could try to install ntfs-3g on the live system, its possible, just a bit of work installing and configuring it :)
[02:55] <Flags> i cant reformat the external hdd
[02:55] <neozen> stevarino: that will set you up
[02:55] <profoX`> Flags: and you'll have to do that everytime you want to write to the ntfs partition with the live cd
[02:55] <Flags> ok i'll try that....
[02:55] <wasabi> Flags: Windows supports two type sof file systems: NTFS and FAT. Ubuntu (out of hte box) can't write to NTFS.
[02:55] <stevarino> neozen: i was looking at that, but installation looks daunting
[02:55] <_Puppy_> profoX: the command is  C-d or (quit)     Exit Festival but it won't work.
[02:55] <profoX`> Flags: because its a live cd..
[02:55] <zaatar> lufis, well yeah but i don't know which setting changes that....and i can't figure out how to go back to the default settings of beryl
[02:56] <Flags> ok i'll try ntfs-3g

[02:56] <jedidor> Anyone know how to fix "unable to open 3d acceleration" when loading anything through wine or cedega?
[02:56] <lufis> zaatar: oh, i dunno. try #ubuntu-effects
[02:56] <deus> jrib, dont want to see more icons, i will have a clean desktop
[02:56] <lufis> zaatar: they are generally more knowlegeable with beryl
[02:56] <profoX`> _Puppy_: with C-d they probably mean CTRL+D
[02:56] <jrib> deus: yes, you disable them in the same place you enable them

[03:12] <xtknight> Flags, do you have the build-essential package installed?

[03:13] <AmaroqWolf> I am unable to start openoffice. When I attempt to, it gives no error. When I attempt to run it from the terminal, I get: no suitable windowing system found, exiting.
[03:13] <xtknight> AmaroqWolf, are you using ubuntu, kubuntu, or Xubuntu?
[03:13] <AmaroqWolf> ubuntu
[03:14] <lufis> AmaroqWolf: with beryl or something?
[03:14] <tanto> have you tried restarting X?
[03:14] <xtknight> AmaroqWolf, have you tried 'completely removing' the package with Synaptic?
[03:14] <BSG75> lufis: no
[03:14] <tanto> what is synaptic? i'm not familiar with it
[03:14] <Flags> damn it it wont download all the packages
[03:14] <xtknight> !synaptic
[03:14] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[03:14] <AmaroqWolf> xtknight: I have not. What's the command, simply aptitude remove, or would I do purge as well?
[03:14] <tanto> i've been using nix for a long time but i just recently installed ubuntu to check it out
[03:14] <xtknight> AmaroqWolf, sudo dpkg --purge <openoffice_pkg>
[03:14] <tanto> !apt

[03:15] <CarlFK> anyone know a good way to script adding a repo to srouces.list ?  (something that will only add it if it isn;t there)
[03:15] <xtknight> Flags, hrm what do you mean?
[03:15] <Bawlsfuff> Can anyone lead me to a walkthrough of installing kernel headers in Ubuntu? It keeps saying E: Couldn't find package linux-headers

[03:16] <lufis> CarlFK: do a search for "ubuntu sources generator" there's a cool web-based one somewhere
[03:16] <Epic720> when you install edgy on a 64 bit processor, does it automatically choose the 64 bit OS?
[03:16] <Juancabrit1> profoX: It seems to be this what's missing: \Documents & Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe Systems\Product licenses\B2B86000.dat
[03:16] <xtknight> Bawlsfuff, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[03:16] <lufis> CarlFK: uh, whoops, i think i misunderstood you
[03:16] <CarlFK> lufis: web-based dosn't sound like a script
[03:16] <CarlFK> me too :)
[03:16] <lufis> CarlFK: yeah, i'm tired >_<
[03:16] <CarlFK> no prob - thanks anyway
[03:16] <Flags> i think it still installed
[03:16] <Juancabrit1> should I copy that to the same folder where I have the program?
[03:16] <Flags> even with 2 missing packages
[03:16] <Flags> now how do i install/build ntfs-3g

[03:20] <AmaroqWolf> xtknight :P
[03:20] <profoX`> tbuss: well didnt you rename it to /mnt/External ?

[03:23] <AmaroqWolf> xtknight: It may be from this one incident that I did to myself. I was trying to remove some flash plugin or other from my system to reinstall it. Someone in this room gave me an example command that would delete all occurences of it from my system using locate to find them. The example they gave was file.so, and I forgot to change it when I pasted it. So, I lost every file on my system that had the text file.so in it's name.
[03:23] <tulio_> thanks
[03:24] <tulio_> no answer
[03:24] <Flags> xtknight, what's next
[03:24] <tulio_> =/

[03:36] <Skylight> wait..automatix screws up unbuntu?
[03:36] <Skylight> Should I install it?
[03:36] <tbuss> profoX` I want to change the mount point to mnt/External...
[03:36] <xtknight> just get w32codecs
[03:36] <seamus7> Hi.. do I need to just delete a PAM module or must it be dpkg??
[03:36] <profoX`> Skylight: you better not use automatix, if thats your question
[03:36] <profoX`> Skylight: it does weird things
[03:36] <AmaroqWolf> xtknight: ooh, auto-apt
[03:36] <Skylight> Thanks
[03:36] <xtknight> AmaroqWolf, hrmm?
[03:36] <Skylight> I tried to get w32codecs
[03:36] <profoX`> tbuss: okay
[03:36] <Skylight> couldn't find it
[03:36] <xtknight> !seveas
[03:36] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[03:36] <xtknight> Skylight, ^^
[03:36] <Gartra2> !w32codecs
[03:36] <tbuss> profoX` I don't see an entry for media/External in fstab, I used pmount to mount this drive a couple of weeks ago....
[03:36] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[03:37] <profoX`> tbuss: oh, and it always mounts automatically now?
[03:37] <AmaroqWolf> xtknight: apparently it can be used to run something and automatically install packages containing files that that program tries to use, if they aren't there.
[03:37] <xtknight> AmaroqWolf, cool
[03:37] <tbuss> profoX` Yes
[03:37] <xtknight> AmaroqWolf, good find
[03:37] <Skylight> xtknight: thanks
[03:37] <tbuss> profoX` I want to change the mount point because I'm having problems sharing files from the external hdd.....
[03:37] <xtknight> Flags, done?  after that, "sudo make install"
[03:37] <Flags> ok
[03:37] <blazer34i> Anybody know when 7.04 is being released?
[03:38] <xtknight> april 19th
[03:38] <tbuss> profoX` I thought changing the external hdd from media/External to mnt/External might help
[03:38] <blazer34i> thanks!
[03:38] <hendrixski> has anyone has massive troubles with JFS partitions?
[03:38] <Flags> and.. is it supposed to let me write to NTFS now?
[03:38] <tbuss> profoX` but like I said fstab shows all drive that are mounted except the external, but I know it's mounted because I can rw to it
[03:39] <xtknight> Flags, i suggest reading "Usage" here.  http://www.ntfs-3g.org/index.html#download
[03:39] <paroxysm> hi, i would read the amule wiki on this, but, obviously, it's down. i have firefox set to use /usr/bin/amule as my ed2k handler, and it works, cause it loads up the window asking if i want to use amule to open that link, it just doesn't send to amule itself, how do i fix that?
[03:39] <Flags> k
[03:39] <profoX`> tbuss: yea, but pmount handles that
[03:39] <Skylight> hey guys, if I screw with the kernel will I have probelms starting up?
[03:39] <profoX`> tbuss: and pmount always uses /media I think
[03:39] <hendrixski> because I just put my GF's music onto a partition I made, it's JFS, and I want to merge it with my music collection, and I'm having troubles up the wazoo trying to copy it over
[03:39] <hendrixski> My Kernel keeps crashing
[03:39] <Skylight> I hear compiling your own kernel is fun
[03:39] <profoX`> tbuss: I suppose you can just add a line to /etc/fstab if you want and tell it to use /mnt, but whats the big deal anyway? why not use /media?
[03:40] <hendrixski> well.. not crashing sorry... I keep getting errors that say "Kernel" in it.. and I shouldn't be getting kernel errors from copying files
[03:40] <tbuss> profoX` It works, trying to troubleshoot why I can't share files that are located on the external drive
[03:40] <tbuss> profoX` Iv'e tried everything else, thought maybe I would try this :)
[03:40] <gpfreitas> I am getting some "invalid unicode" errors with mkisofs. Any suggestions? I'd like a single command to fix it all, I really don't mind changing the filenames as long as they keep the important information.
[03:41] <hendrixski> so I wonder if it isn't that JFS has issues, and the kernel just doesn't handle it well? (meaning I have to re-copy the music) :-(
[03:41] <Skylight> Hmm, is there a limewire version for ubuntu
[03:41] <xtknight> !frostwire
[03:41] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[03:41] <hendrixski> anybody know?
[03:41] <profoX`> tbuss: maybe because its ntfs-3g.. otherwise I wouldnt know.. on my external ext3 drive sharing works fine with samba
[03:41] <Skylight> Cool
[03:41] <Skylight> thanks
[03:41] <Skylight> !thanks
[03:41] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[03:42] <Skylight> lol
[03:42] <knapp> When I use full screen apps the bottom panel is always on top, how can I fix this?
[03:42] <tbuss> profoX` man I've been trying for so long now to get file sharing going on my external

[03:43] <mon^rch> thanks... will check out dvdrip :)
[03:43] <profoX`> tbuss: hm, I think its the fact that its ntfs, but I don't know.. I wish I could troubleshoot some more with you
[03:43] <profoX`> tbuss: but i gotta go
[03:43] <gpfreitas> Hi everybody. I am getting some "invalid unicode" errors with mkisofs. Any suggestions? I'd like a single command to fix it all, I really don't mind changing the filenames as long as they keep the important information.
[03:43] <BlackDalek> blazer34i: I see, so it is pretty much pointless running it from the applications menu where it gets installed to... Is it possible to modify the menu entry launcher so that it will launch under sudo? Is that simple to do?
[03:43] <BlackDalek> Ok.. I sorted it. I added sudo to the applications menu entry and ticked run in terminal - now the NVIDIA X Server Settings tool is working.
[03:43] <profoX`> tbuss: sorry..
[03:43] <profoX`> bye
[03:43] <MFen> i'm trying to do this with sqlite, as i said, but if there's any generic way to set up an odbc source (is odbcinst the thing i need? what's the name of the odbc driver for sqlite) then i will try that
[03:44] <tbuss> profoX` np thanks for your help
[03:44] <hateyla> xtknight: there is something error.. Xserver not going to start.. .. "Fata Server Error: no Screens Found "
[03:44] <hendrixski> MFen, the drivers should come with it in Ubuntu
[03:44] <xtknight> hateyla, what did you change ?
[03:44] <MFen> hendrixski: yeah, i know.. the data *driver* is present. it's the data source i don't know how to configure
[03:45] <MFen> you have to create a set of configs that bind some name string to the driver, with attached login and connection information
[03:45] <Flags> xtknight, I can't create a folder in the /media dir
[03:45] <seamus7> This is for Ubuntu Gurus: what would cause my SuperNautilus to have a very long delay before it will start up right after I configured Network Manager to work with my wireless and a keyring manager??

[03:46] <Flags> xtknight so its gonna be "sudo mkdir NEWDIRNAME"?
[03:46] <xtknight> Flags, sure thing

[03:47] <Flags> oh
[03:47] <xtknight> hateyla, weren't you having a problem with your resolution?
[03:47] <Flags> well i got it anyways
[03:47] <xtknight> hateyla, you did dpkg-reconfigure and selected the wrong thing ?

[03:49] <schwach> anyone have vmware workstation installed on 6.10?

[03:50] <Skylight> Hi
[03:50] <hateyla> xtknight: i just open /etc/X11/x.org.conf file
[03:50] <MFen> hendrixski: i got into the wizard, picked odbc database, on step 2 it asks me for the data source with a browse button.  hit browse, there's nothing there.  (which is expected, since i have never told it where to find the database)
[03:50] <Skylight> back again
[03:50] <Skylight> lol, how do you install gaim themes?
[03:50] <xtknight> hateyla, how are you on irc?
[03:50] <xtknight> hateyla, another pc?
[03:50] <hateyla> xtknight: this is my another pc.
[03:51] <xtknight> hateyla, why can't you try #kubuntu ?
[03:51] <hateyla> xtknight : yea dude.
[03:51] <MFen> hendrixski: in order for there to be any data source, i have to configure one. in windows this is done externally in a system-global list of data sources, where you choose driver and connection info
[03:51] <hateyla> xtknight: they can help with starting Xserver?
[03:51] <Flags> xtknight is my hero: I award him the e-Medal of Honor
[03:51] <xtknight> hateyla, `sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` to fix the X problem, i think
[03:51] <MFen> also, in windows, there's an Add button there.  not in ubuntu.
[03:51] <blazer34i>  Does anyone know if they fixed the audio issues for gateway laptops in 7.04?
[03:52] <hendrixski> MFen, I'll take a quick look at this and get back to you... give me... 30 seconds to a minute...
[03:52] <MFen> hendrixski: i'll be here. ;-)
[03:52] <wims> i have some sort of spyware or whatever hijacking my firefox (dialog boxes for system doctor or whatever its called pops up every now and then),  are there any kind of anti spyware software for ubuntu ?

[03:54] <emet> hey
[03:54] <hendrixski> MFen, back... so there are three ways to identify the DB...I'm thinking initially that you may be trying to make it harder on yourself, you may not need to do any configuration on the sqllite end
[03:54] <bruenig> DjViper, /usr/share/fonts
[03:54] <DjViper> thx
[03:54] <hendrixski> MFen, have you tried all three of those selection methods without configuring the DB?
[03:54] <brucedes> any idea why grub is saying the selected disk doesn't exist
[03:54] <shawn34> anyone? when i connect my pocketpc it attaches the device to 'ttyUSB0'. But it doesn't auto mount, how can I mount this device?
[03:55] <MFen> hendrixski: are you referring to "Create new", "open" and "connect"?
[03:55] <hendrixski> MFen, yep.
[03:55] <MFen> hendrixski: i've tried open, giving it the pathname.  it just said it couldn't connect
[03:56] <MFen> create new wouldn't help even if it did the right thing, i have an existing sql database here
[03:56] <hendrixski> MFen, Aha, Ok... are you sure that the DB is running?
[03:56] <Demented_Laptop> http://www.cdc.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/aircrack-ptw/
[03:56] <MFen> hendrixski: sqlite doesn't have a process. you connect to a sqlite database in-process by using the library
[03:56] <hendrixski> MFen, it may not be on a cron job, I know I had issues with trying to connect to mySQL because it wasn't running
[03:57] <hendrixski> MFen, oh, it doesn't have a process... ummm... hhhmmm
[03:57] <MFen> hendrixski: so, connection info for a sqlite database would *probably* just be the path to it
[03:57] <Selenolycus> Has anyone here setup a MUD server?
[03:57] <Jump86> how do i install a new background for my login splash page?

[03:59] <hendrixski> MFen, I may be over my abilities on this one... I've done Oracle programming but never hooked it up to anything (other on the team took care of that).  sqlLite sounds like a flat-file database tha tshould just have a file you can connect to.
[03:59] <etzerd> Thanks
[03:59] <MFen> hendrixski: well it's not a flat file (i.e. file containing columns and rows), it's a true relational database, it's just not a relational database *manager*. :)

[04:00] <Flags> hmm
[04:01] <hendrixski> MFen, I'm sure there's a really easy way to do it, I mean, ODBC is the standard so OOo has to autodetect as much of this as possile.... I thought I knew more about this than I do...

[04:15] <thill2708> how do you do that in gnome?
[04:16] <bruenig> thill2708, how do you know it doesn't recognize it as a dvd
[04:16] <thill2708> is there an easy way?
[04:16] <thill2708> well, in the computer folder it reports it as a cd-rom, and I have a dvd in it
[04:16] <dynaemu> Hello, I was wondering if a firewall is needed for ubuntu, if not, when should I get a firewall?
[04:16] <bruenig> thill2708, that doesn't matter
[04:16] <Jaxster> Okay.
[04:16] <preaction> !firewall | dynaemu
[04:16] <ubotu> dynaemu: 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).
[04:16] <Jaxster> I rebooted
[04:16] <thill2708> totem doesn't recognize it, either
[04:16] <bruenig> thill2708, that is probably a codecs issue
[04:17] <bruenig> thill2708, do you have a data dvd or something laying around to see
[04:17] <dynaemu> Thank you preaction.
[04:17] <thill2708> hm, just movies, bruenig
[04:17] <bruenig> !dvd | thill2708
[04:17] <ubotu> thill2708: 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

[04:18] <Marupa> Anyone here have FreeNX knowledge?
[04:18] <bruenig> thill2708, yeah it is just that you don't have the proper codecs, not that it detects it as cdrom, cdrom is just the name of the mount point

[04:23] <bruenig> chuck_tx, what is the /dev/name of it and what is the filesystem
[04:23] <chuck_tx> I think it is /dev/hda1 & ext3
[04:24] <chuck_tx> It is another linux install

[04:25] <Fylk> Music, etc.
[04:25] <chuck_tx> bruenig: Where does that mount it?
[04:25] <bruenig> Fylk, if you delete them in the file manager, as in if you click on them and press delete there is a trash located at ~/.Trash that they will go to
[04:25] <bruenig> chuck_tx, it mounts it in the home directory
[04:25] <bruenig> chuck_tx, ~
[04:25] <Fylk> Ok.
[04:26] <worm> Hello guys
[04:26] <coolness9> What's the difference between the sbin and the bin?. Sorry if this is a dumb question
[04:26] <worm> Listen I just installed WINE and now how and where must I install the Windows softwares?
[04:26] <OTIS> Fylk: look in the bottom right corner of your screen.  Right-click for options
[04:27] <coolness9> worm it should already be done
[04:27] <Fylk> So, what do I do once I'm there to get ride of them forever?
[04:27] <reizend> fylk or left click to open the trash
[04:27] <chuck_tx> bruenig: How do you go up a dir in linux?
[04:27] <coolness9> if you installed it correctly, it should have made a folder (although invisible) called /.wine
[04:27] <OTIS> Fylk: right click, chose 'Empty Trash'
[04:27] <reizend> fylk if you right click there is a empty trash option
[04:27] <worm> coolness9 should it be automatic when I insert a windows software CD?
[04:27] <bruenig> chuck_tx, cd ..
[04:28] <chuck_tx> cd space ..?
[04:28] <reizend> fylk, if you left clicked look under the file menu
[04:28] <bruenig> chuck_tx, yeah
[04:28] <worm> I can run wine and everythign but i don have any applications installed yet
[04:28] <chuck_tx> thanks
[04:28] <coolness9> worm, it doesn't quite work that way.
[04:28] <worm> coolness9 how it should work?
[04:28] <bruenig> coolness9, sbin is stuff that is essential for the system to run, the really important stuff, bin is less important stuff
[04:28] <OTIS> chuck_tx: '..' is shorthand for the parent directory
[04:28] <coolness9> okay
[04:29] <ablyss> worm, sometimes you have to mount the cd first and run click setup.exe from the cdrom
[04:29] <coolness9> worm, well I've only used wine on 2 programs, and I've had to copy the windows registry over and files over to my wine windows folder
[04:29] <worm> coolness9 oh ok then its gonna work okj?
[04:29] <bruenig> coolness9, I think the official distinction is that sbin is system binaries, and bin is command binaries
[04:29] <coolness9> okay
[04:29] <bruenig> hence the s
[04:29] <Ezep> hi
[04:29] <worm> coolness9 do ihave thesse registry files in synaptics?
[04:29] <pppoe_dude> hi. is there a program like netstat but one that can show how much data a program is transmitting?
[04:30] <Ezep> #ubuntu2
[04:30] <coolness9> no they would be on your windows registry.
[04:30] <Ezep> maybe a good choice?
[04:30] <coolness9> I think for simple programs worm, you could use wine to just run them.
[04:30] <snerge> pppoe_dude: tcpdump
[04:30] <snerge> well
[04:30] <coolness9> Like with a program that doesn't need registry additions
[04:30] <snerge> that doesn't how how much actually
[04:31] <pppoe_dude> snerge, i want a simple one that lists programs/data... does tcpdump have that option?
[04:31] <chuck_tx> Is there any way to get it to let me write to the filesystem w/o screwing up the install that's in there?
[04:31] <bruenig> wine has a registry
[04:31] <worm> coolness9 i need to install Macromedia Flash
[04:31] <coolness9> Worm, basically when you install wine, it installs the neccessary windows files to run some windows programs.
[04:31] <coolness9> worm, try this
[04:31] <bruenig> wine ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/regedit.exe
[04:31] <snerge> pppoe_dude: nah, tcpdump shows you all packets. regarding the software, you can always look for a specific tcp/udp port or ip

[04:32] <coolness9> that helped me install DW 8 on my Ubuntu machine
[04:32] <pppoe_dude> snerge, ya i use tethereal for stuf like that... i was hoping there was a simpler solution
[04:32] <Ezep> mmm...imposible to get support here?
[04:32] <pppoe_dude> something like top but for networking
[04:32] <worm> it is giving me an error in $DISPLAY to start wine

[04:57] <jared_> I need some help with an error that I'm getting in the terminal. I'm trying to get my computer working as a webserver for me to test some things out on. When I try to install the needed packages with sudo apt-get I get "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavail able)
[04:57] <jared_> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?"
[04:57] <pyrak> bruenig, will i have to reset for the changes to take place?
[04:57] <Linuxnewbie756> is there a terminal based client for email?
[04:57] <shawn34> relia, but i really like the fact that i can add irc people to my buddies list in gaim
[04:57] <Linux_Galore> I usually use kcharacterselect  for odd stuff, not sure what gnome uses
[04:57] <jared_> what do I do to get rid of that error?
[04:58] <HymnToLife> Linuxnewbie756, telnet :)
[04:58] <bruenig> pyrak, just sudo umount /dev/hda1 && sudo mount -a
[04:58] <jamesd> Linuxnewbie756, mutt, pine
[04:58] <relia> jared_: Sure dpkg/apt isn't running in the background?
[04:58] <natham> snerge: how? /etc/iniit.d/nfs-common stop ?
[04:58] <Linuxnewbie756> sudo apt-get install mutt
[04:58] <clearzen> jared_: There is another package manager running somewhere
[04:58] <Moniker42> jared_, have you closed all instances of synaptic?
[04:58] <GodTodd> jared: that usually means you have add/remove or synaptic or soething like that running
[04:58] <jared_> ^^ No, I haven't I'll try that
[04:58] <`Orum> how does one go about downloading/installing drivers for linux?
[04:58] <Emacnuel> aqui esta la solucion http://www.ubuntu-es.org/index.php?q=node/38289
[04:58] <jared_> I didn't know that gives you that error
[04:58] <jared_> Thanks :)
[04:58] <HymnToLife> depends which drivers...
[04:58] <clearzen> `Orum: apt-get hopefully :)
[04:59] <`Orum> HymnToLife: USB to RS-232 adapter (USA-19HS)
[04:59] <Crazytom> shawn34, i'm here now
[04:59] <natham> Emacnuel: es de mala educacion hablar en estos canales en un idioma diferente al ingles
[04:59] <snerge> natham : good question, I haven't used nfs under ubuntu, I think that looks like the good init.d file
[04:59] <Linux_Galore> `Orum: you dont they are built in or you use the package manager to add what you need
[04:59] <`Orum> ah, ok, the package manger then
[04:59] <pyrak> bruenig, unknown command...
[04:59] <`Orum> thanks
[04:59] <OTIS> OK, now I have a question.  How realistic is it to move a system disk to a differerent computer?  (P4 -> AMD 32 bit)
[04:59] <natham> snerge: i stop the nfs-common and no luck
[04:59] <Juancabrit1> Ecmanuel: Thank you I will read that. Do you know how can I install Photoshop?
[04:59] <Emacnuel> ok
[04:59] <relia> shawn34: Using Gaim atm, on a broken Debian install (never again...).
[04:59] <pyrak> bruenig (unmount)
[04:59] <Moniker42> OTIS, a hard drive? easy.
[04:59] <bruenig> pyrak, sudo umount /dev/hda1 && sudo mount -a
[04:59] <snerge> natham: no idea, I'd reboot (but I'm lazy)
[04:59] <jared_> Juancabritl: what version of photoshop?
[04:59] <shine> does anyone have any experience with fs-drive?
[04:59] <shawn34> Crazytom, my wireless setup is giving me kernal panics left and right, and system keeps locking up
[05:00] <Juancabrit1> jared_: 9
[05:00] <OTIS> Moniker42: really?  the entire device enumereation would be different.  what's the trick?
[05:00] <natham> OTIS: i did it a few times, and no problem. just config X and go
[05:00] <shine> Are there any stability or any other issues with fs-drive?
[05:00] <jared_> I don't think that installs with Wine yet. I've tried mine, but I couldn't get it. I'm trying to learn GIMP so that I don't need photoshop
[05:00] <Moniker42> Juancabrit1, not sure if ps9 works but you'll need wine
[05:00] <Crazytom> shawn34, i'm not going to pretend to know anything about kernel panics but what chipset did you have?
[05:00] <Moniker42> !wine | Juancabrit1
[05:00] <ubotu> Juancabrit1: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:01] <joe_> it is what the command to add a key
[05:01] <Juancabrit1> I do have Wine
[05:01] <shawn34> Crazytom, broadcom
[05:01] <jared_> Juancabritl: Photoshop 7 works I believe, but photoshop 9 (I think its CS2) doesn't install with wine
[05:01] <OTIS> natham: so boot to text console, type some X incantions, & that's it?
[05:01] <pyrak> jared_ ive heard there's a gimp distro called gimpshop that is much more photoshop-like
[05:01] <relia> CS2 = PS9?
[05:01] <jared_> yeah I've heard that too
[05:01] <Crazytom> shawn34, please don't say bcm4318
[05:01] <joe_>  Hello everyone, could you say to me how one adds a key starting from the console
[05:01] <Juancabrit1> relia: yes
[05:01] <nothlit> CS2 works in wine
[05:01] <jared_> I'm going to try to learn GIMP the way it is
[05:01] <shawn34> Crazytom, tell me how to find out again?
[05:01] <jared_> No, it doesn't.
[05:01] <natham> OTIS: well i did it some time ago, but basically yes (if you dont have custom kernel)
[05:01] <Juancabrit1> nothlit_ how
[05:01] <Gabz> Juancabrit1: i think i saw something on digg about installing photot shop cs2 i'll see if i can find a link for you
[05:01] <jared_> I've tried. It doesn't install properly.
[05:01] <relia> Been there, dubbed garbage on Wine's appdb.
[05:01] <Crazytom> shawn34, lspci -v
[05:01] <shine> no one with fs-drive?
[05:02] <jared_> Gabz: I've tried that tutorial, it doesn't work
[05:02] <Moniker42> Juancabrit1, go into #gimp and ask them "how do i make gimp look like photoshop" and see what they say =D
[05:02] <OTIS> BRB
[05:02] <joe_>  Hello everyone, could you say to me how one adds a key starting from the console
[05:02] <`Orum> hrm...and if the drivers aren't listed (even in universe?)
[05:02] <Emacnuel> use gimp
[05:02] <pyrak> jared_ thats a good idea, thats what i did and it reallydoesnt take long, you'll prolly find it actually makes more sense than ps if you think about it
[05:02] <Juancabrit1> Gabz: Thank you I have the tutorial
[05:02] <tehxed> I'm having an issue (with a fresh install of Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10 AMD64 installation on a Core Duo d805 2.66GHz) where when I log out/shutdown/restart/etc, my screen turns black and my computer doesn't actually shut down. I've read up on it and it seems to be related to video drivers. Can anyon help me with this issue?
[05:02] <nothlit> Juancabrit1: hmm you make/grab a portable version, or use a windows install and do some stuff
[05:02] <relia> Moniker42: I have a better idea, let's go into #gentoo and ask about binary distribution. :V
[05:02] <jared_> Juancabritl: a bit illegal, but I heard Photoshop portable works with wine
[05:02] <joe_> #kubuntu-fr
[05:02] <clearzen>  joe_:  gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recieve-keys KEY
[05:02] <Moniker42> relia, or into #debian and ask them "what the hell took so long?!"
[05:03] <jared_> lol
[05:03] <nothlit> jared_: you can make your own portable version from your windows install, not illegal
[05:03] <`Orum> apparently they're on Fedora Core/Red Hat but not Debian/Ubuntu
[05:03] <shawn34> Crazytom, Broadcom Corporation BCM4306
[05:03] <shine> i guess no one with experience with fs-drive?
[05:03] <nothlit> but the full thing works as well
[05:03] <Demented_Laptop> how does one crack WPA protected access points?
[05:03] <clearzen>  joe_: gpg ==export --armor KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[05:03] <Juancabrit1> PS portable is fine but how. I have it partially working... I mean, i get a promt saying I dont have permissions or something
[05:03] <Moniker42> shine, i don't - but ask your question specifically and someone will answer if they know
[05:03] <clearzen>  joe_: gpg --export --armor KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[05:03] <jared_> nothlit: I was talking about the actual illegal version, I don't know how to make a portable version, I took out the registrty keys but it keeps telling me I don't have permission or something
[05:04] <Gabz> Demented_Laptop: one doesn't crach wpa
[05:04] <Demented_Laptop> yes you do
[05:04] <Demented_Laptop> cowpatty
[05:04] <relia> Lies, I was framed.
[05:04] <jared_> Just try to learn GIMP, it isn't that bad
[05:04] <Demented_Laptop> if its your own router
[05:04] <shine> I want to try fs-drive so I can read/write onto my ext3 /home partition. But I'm wondering if this driver has any issues regarding stability or ownership
[05:04] <Linux_Galore> shine: easier just to use a fat32 thumb drive or partition
[05:04] <clearzen> Demented_Laptop: It's still a dictionary attack
[05:04] <relia> Aircrack is the only utility I know of to do a dic/brute.
[05:04] <Crazytom> shawn34, you used fwcutter right?
[05:05] <relia> Not really into that scene, tbh.
[05:05] <SuperTeece> mmm, fwcutter is the heat
[05:05] <adorablepuppy> Is there any tool I can use to make animated DVD menus on linux?
[05:05] <Gabz> Demented_Laptop:  it's pretty hard do brute force a WPA encryption
[05:05] <joe_> or I put the number of my key
[05:05] <clearzen> Demented_Laptop: You can't crack a 12 digit random wpa2 key.....if you can show me
[05:05] <shine> Is it possible to resize my windows xp ntfs partition and create a fat32 partition?
[05:05] <bruenig> adorablepuppy, doubt it
[05:05] <Demented_Laptop> look for the eapol 4 way handshake withe wireshark and play it in dic attack
[05:05] <Juancabrit1> I will learn GIMP and Inkscape but I need to finish some work for tomorrow
[05:05] <shawn34> Crazytom, yes
[05:05] <clearzen> joe_: Yeah, where it says KEY in those commands
[05:05] <Demented_Laptop> after a deauth attack
[05:05] <Linux_Galore> shine: yes but ntfs doesnt really like being resized so you may lose data
[05:05] <Crazytom> shawn34, please join #ubuntuwireless
[05:06] <shine> thank you
[05:06] <clearzen> Demented_Laptop: right but if the key isn't in a dictionary you are not getting in like that
[05:06] <joe_> just after amor
[05:06] <OTIS> 
[05:06] <clearzen> joe_: yes
[05:06] <kevinh90> hello
[05:06] <joe_> ok
[05:06] <Demented_Laptop> use an online dictionary
[05:06] <Demented_Laptop> kinda like rainbow tables
[05:07] <PoofDaddy> Linux_Galore: you have any idea of which one to look for on synaptic?
[05:07] <Juancabrit1> I'm going to try Codeweavers software to install Windows software, but I have a .sh file, how do I run it??
[05:07] <jared_> this may be a stupid question but I used "nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf" to change the file a bit, how do I quit the thing? it says ^X Exit but I don't know how to do the ^X
[05:07] <clearzen> Demented_Laptop: no, rainbow tables use unsalted hashes
[05:07] <Demented_Laptop> true
[05:07] <nothlit> Linux_Galore: doesnt like? ntfsresize is a very thorough tool... how much an fs "likes" resizing is only up to the tools that are provided
[05:07] <MasterOfDisaster> press the control button, then x
[05:07] <jared_> thanks
[05:08] <MasterOfDisaster> np
[05:08] <Linux_Galore> PoofDaddy: sorry you lost me there, what are you looking for ?
[05:08] <middle_earth> #q
[05:08] <Demented_Laptop> aircrack-ptw is awesome     break 128 bit WEP in 60 sec with low ivs
[05:08] <Linux_Galore> nothlit: so if he resizes it and loses the data are you paying for the damage ?
[05:08] <clearzen> Demented_Laptop: I know. I love it. I picked it up about 3 days ago
[05:08] <PoofDaddy> Linux_Galore: asian language fonts
[05:09] <joe_> error of syntax close to unexpected token ` | the '
[05:09] <PoofDaddy> PoofDaddy: more specifically, Bengali
[05:09] <Linux_Galore> PoofDaddy: wont be called asian usually something like big5, just search for fonts
[05:09] <clearzen> joe_: which command the first or second?
[05:09] <nothlit> Linux_Galore... i'm merely stating the fact that its not an issue of how much an fs "likes" or "dislikes"... please read what I said more carefully
[05:09] <joe_> can you explain it to me in another channels
[05:09] <joe_> can you explain it to me in another channels
[05:10] <relia> nothlit: Just give it executable privs and double-click. Or, from a termina: 'chmod x <file>' then './<file>' or 'sh <file>' (assuming it's a shell script).
[05:10] <joe_> can you explain it to me in another channels
[05:10] <Linux_Galore> nothlit: I did but it still ignores the facts

[05:18] <clearzen> joe_: Those commands will work for you
[05:18] <jodas> I would like to know how to install and HP Deskjet F350.
[05:19] <jodas> an*
[05:19] <Rei-chan> armyriad, A myriad. Ubuntu is a distribution, not a single piece of software.
[05:19] <jpsamara> armyriad: ubuntu is made of several components, all them opensource... most projects are written in C, several in C++ and Java and C#
[05:19] <joe_> good
[05:19] <jodas> Because I would like to switch over to it and stuff.
[05:19] <joe_> that work
[05:20] <jodas> I would just like to know how to install the printer that I have.
[05:20] <joe_> thank you clearzen
[05:20] <dimeotane> is there a way to view a large (1GB ) text file without loading it into memory?  grep can search it nicely, but I want to read more than one line =p
[05:20] <Kendreague> Just a question, I read the FAQ, and will Java from IBM for PPC run correctly on Ubuntu?
[05:20] <clearzen> joe_: np
[05:20] <joe_> np = ??
[05:21] <tehxed> Linux_Galore: Mine doesn't even log out.
[05:21] <Rooy> dimeotane: try "less theFile"
[05:21] <jahpraiseherb> how do i get my application added to the universe repository? can anybody give me a link?? thankyou :)
[05:21] <clearzen> joe_: no problem
[05:21] <tehxed> I'm having an issue (with a fresh install of Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10 AMD64 installation on a Core Duo d805 2.66GHz) where when I log out/shutdown/restart/etc, my screen turns black and my computer doesn't actually shut down. I've read up on it and it seems to be related to video drivers. Can anyon help me with this issue?
[05:21] <joe_> ok
[05:21] <dimeotane> rooy can I use that to start at line # 10321?
[05:21] <Rooy> dimeotane: see man less
[05:21] <joe_> can you help me for a last thing
[05:22] <PoofDaddy> Linux_Galore:  it appears to be already installed.  HOw do I implement it on Opera?
[05:22] <Linux_Galore> tehxed: so even if you type ctrl alt backspace  it wont log out ?
[05:22] <Linux_Galore> PoofDaddy: dont know I dont use opera much
[05:22] <jodas> Does anyone know about the printer issue?
[05:22] <yoz> if i am running watch with a tail command..how can I make it continually write to a file?
[05:23] <tehxed> Linux_Galore: Even if I press that, yes.
[05:23] <joe_> I try to make run my  sound card but any result
[05:23] <spira> is there a shortcut key to bring up a terminal window? I'm running 7.04.
[05:23] <dimeotane> Rooy: thx, less looks pretty good
[05:23] <ubuntu> hi
[05:23] <Rooy> dimeotane: np
[05:23] <ubuntu> whats up with the new version?
[05:23] <Rei-chan> !hi | ubuntu
[05:23] <ubotu> ubuntu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:23] <ubuntu> why arent there any terminals?
[05:23] <Kendreague> spira: Try Alt + F2, and type in gnome-terminal
[05:24] <saobi> hey guys
[05:24] <Rei-chan> There are no VT's in Feisty?
[05:24] <Rei-chan> Have you checked on ubuntu+1, ubuntu?
[05:24] <saobi> got this box with a chinese cpu, godson, if you want to try it out
[05:24] <Linux_Galore> tehxed: have you tried running   sudo  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:24] <saobi> 68.12.60.195
[05:24] <saobi> user: mitbbs
[05:24] <saobi> pass: mitbbs
[05:24] <PoofDaddy> Linux_Galore: i have to change the encoding.  I just don't see any options that might jive with Bengali.  There is a bunch of them like Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, etc.  I'll continue to experiment.
[05:24] <relia> spira: Go to 'System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts' and bind gnome-terminal to a set of keys. Doesn't have one by default.
[05:25] <jodas> Is it possible to split a Partition?
[05:25] <tehxed> Linux_Galore: No, No I have not.
[05:25] <JoyFm> if i restart xorg hte system hang on beaocuse there is no shell and no way to interact with linux
[05:25] <yoz> if i am running watch with a tail command..how can I make it continually write to a file?
[05:25] <jodas> I have Windows Pro and I think that the whole thing is on one partition that takes up the entire hard drive.
[05:25] <JoyFm> is this user friednly?
[05:25] <Linux_Galore> tehxed: that will allow you to redo the xorg.conf  file and see how that works
[05:26] <Pelo> jodas,  if it is empty you can remove it and  make to , if it has content you can resize it and make another with the available space
[05:26] <tehxed> Linux_Galore: Doing so! Thanks!
[05:26] <Kendreague> jodas: If you're running Windows, you might want to look at a program called Partition Magic.
[05:26] <jodas> Thank you.
[05:26] <Pelo> jodas,  ntfs partitions are tricky with gparted,   defragment it first and back up your data to be safe
[05:27] <comodo> can anyone tell me how to see if your modem driver is installed on ubuntu
[05:27] <JoyFm> is there anyway to get the VT#S enabled?
[05:27] <yoz> is there a command to write the output to the end of a file?
[05:27] <Skylight> Hey guys
[05:28] <jahpraiseherb> hi why can't anybody answer my question?
[05:28] <Skylight> Are there any good P2P programs for ubuntu?
[05:28] <Pelo> comodo,  check if you see the modem in the hardware ( device) manager
[05:28] <comodo> frostwire skylight
[05:28] <comodo> ok
[05:28] <Pelo> jahpraiseherb,  what was your question ?
[05:28] <Skylight> sure?
[05:28] <Linux_Galore> Skylight: a few, I use azureus or ktorrent
[05:28] <Skylight> I couldn't find it in the repositories
[05:28] <Skylight> nahh
[05:28] <Rei-chan> jahpraiseherb, Because we either didn't see it, or we don't know. :(
[05:28] <Skylight> torrents don't work
[05:28] <Skylight> I don't dl large files
[05:28] <jahpraiseherb> pelo: how does one go about getting their application added to the universe repository?
[05:28] <Pelo> Skylight,  www.frostwire.com or org or something
[05:29] <Linux_Galore> Skylight: there is also mldonkey
[05:29] <Pelo> jahpraiseherb,  check the ubuntu site for contributing
[05:29] <Linux_Galore> Skylight: its a multi protocol client
[05:29] <Skylight> thanks
[05:29] <Rei-chan> jahpraiseherb, Have you looked on ubuntu.com? It should have contributing info.
[05:29] <Skylight> I thought it'll be in the repositories
[05:29] <jahpraiseherb> ok i will have look :)
[05:30] <Linux_Galore> Skylight: depends what repo's you using, all three are in mine
[05:30] <jared_> I'm following a page and i says to change the names of something to the current username and groupname that I'm using, I'd assume that my username is the one I logged in as, but whats the group name?
[05:30] <Skylight> hmm
[05:30] <Skylight> I think I'm only using main
[05:30] <Skylight> gota fix that
[05:30] <void60606> hello everyone
[05:30] <jared_> hi
[05:30] <Linux_Galore> Skylight: the defaults hardly have any of the extra stuff
[05:30] <Pelo> Skylight,  not all programs you can use with ubuntu are in the repos, or have repos,  but you can use deb files easily or compile by hand   http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[05:31] <void60606> will edgy automatically upgrade to feisty?
[05:31] <relia> jared_: Is this page dealing with the permissions of a file?
[05:31] <jared_> Its to do with configuring Apache...
[05:31] <Pelo> void60606,  no it will not, you'll need to do a little work
[05:31] <Skylight> Pelo Cool thanks
[05:31] <void60606> uh oh...
[05:31] <jared_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP <--- I'm on this page.
[05:31] <yoz> is there a command to write the output of another command to the end of a file????
[05:32] <void60606> Pelo, can you direct me to where I would get instructions to do that?
[05:32] <jared_> it is to make my current user the PHP pages administrator
[05:32] <relia> yoz: Pipe the output then use sed (I would assume) to append it to the end of a file.
[05:32] <Pelo> void60606,  just sacrifice a kitten at next full moon
[05:32] <yoz> relia, thanks..let me try
[05:32] <Pelo> !upgrade | void60606
[05:32] <ubotu> void60606: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[05:32] <Rooy> yoz: shell redirect >> appends to a file
[05:32] <pyrak> anyone know how i can change the settings for my touchpad (im on a notebook)
[05:32] <Linux_Galore> Skylight: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy/Repositories
[05:33] <atiredmachine> Hello, are their any GTK music players with an album shuffle mode?
[05:33] <Pelo> pyrak,  check the forum for your model
[05:33] <void60606> Does it have to be a cute kitten?
[05:33] <Linux_Galore> someone gave me a link before to a web page that creates a sources.list file for you
[05:33] <pyrak> pelo, where would i find that?
[05:33] <Pelo> void60606,  the cuter they are the faster the upgrade
[05:33] <jared_> how do I determine the groupname that I am using?
[05:33] <relia> yoz: Actually, What Rooy said works a lot better. XD
[05:33] <Pelo> pyrak,  www.ubuntuforums.com
[05:33] <relia> jared_: groups
[05:33] <yoz> Rooy, how exactly do you use that..?
[05:33] <Skylight> Linux_Galore thanks
[05:34] <Rooy> yoz: command >> file, not sure how to deal with stderr
[05:34] <yoz> ok ill try
[05:34] <jedidor> I have been having a problem with 3d acceleration. The drivers are installed. glxgears works fine, beryl works fine. I have no errors except when I try to run a game in wine or cedega. Has anyone had this problem before?
[05:34] <yoz> thanks
[05:34] <Linux_Galore> Skylight: there is a web site that allows you to click on a few boxes and it outputs a new sources.list  file for you
[05:34] <relia> jedidor: What game(s)?
[05:34] <jared_> relia: groups gives me a bunch of groups and I think I'm only supposed to put in one.
[05:34] <jedidor> wow, steam games
[05:34] <thynctank> apologies as I realize this is a silly question but I haven't find a definitive answer in my searches thus far
[05:35] <bruenig> Rooy, command 2> for stderr
[05:35] <yoz> Rooy,  is there a way to use that and still see the output
[05:35] <JoyFM> re
[05:35] <thynctank> Z'ere any possibility of recovering a password in dapper?
[05:35] <bruenig> yoz, you can use tee to still see the output: command | tee -a file
[05:35] <thynctank> I'd hate to have to reinstall and customize stuff again
[05:35] <Demented_Laptop> poopshanks
[05:35] <Rooy> bruenig: is 2>> ok too?
[05:35] <jedidor> relia: Now, I had the exact same setup. Just reinstall ubuntu. It was working before the reinstall.
[05:35] <Pelo> thynctank,  I beleive the answer is no ,  it would make it too easy to break in the computer
[05:35] <bruenig> Rooy, I have never tried that, probably, /me goes to test
[05:35] <Skylight> Yahoo! Pipes are cool
[05:35] <thynctank> yeah I understand that Pelo
[05:35] <Rooy> yoz: it's called "redirect" altogether
[05:35] <thynctank> just checking
[05:35] <Linux_Galore> Skylight: here we go http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:35] <thynctank> this time I'll be documenting it
[05:35] <yoz> bruenig, thanks
[05:36] <zero88> how do i backup my ubuntu settings and everything?
[05:36] <thynctank> last time I installed it was just as a toe in the water
[05:36] <jared_> groups gives me a bunch of groups and I think I'm only supposed to put in one. What groupname should I use (theres one which is the same as my username)
[05:36] <bruenig> Rooy, yeah 2>> works too
[05:36] <void60606> Pelo: Thanks, reading now... :)
[05:36] <thynctank> I've come to enjoy ubuntu but hadn't touched in so long I forgot it!
[05:36] <Rooy> good to know
[05:36] <thynctank> and smart me I set it up for auto login
[05:36] <thynctank> bleh
[05:36] <Skylight> Linux_Galore Thanks for your help!
[05:36] <jared_> anyone?
[05:37] <Pelo> thynctank,  you could always try using the live cd and mounting your drive, that should allow you to backup your data at the very least
[05:37] <Pelo> probably
[05:37] <thynctank> I'm not familiar enough to be able to repopulate things once I've done the reinstall
[05:38] <thynctank> and it wasn't /that/ much work, just a nuisance to have to do it again
[05:38] <zero88> Pelo, is there a way once logged in, that you dont have to type sudo before every command that calls for it?
[05:38] <Pelo> it,s just 30 minutes,  not like reinstalling windoes
[05:38] <clearzen> zero88: sudo -s
[05:38] <jared_> How do I determine the groupname to use ? I need use my current username and groupname for something
[05:38] <Shadowfire> zero88 - you want to go to <System> tab , <Adfministration>, Simple Backup Config
[05:38] <thynctank> yeah I was very impressed with the ubuntu installer
[05:38] <zero88> clearzen thanks
[05:38] <zero88> shadowfire thanks
[05:39] <clearzen> zero88: or sudo -s -H if you want every tab opened after to be root as well
[05:39] <thynctank> I remember old slackware and all the other distros 10 years ago were such a pain
[05:39] <bruenig> jared_, id -un for user, id -gn for group name
[05:39] <Linux_Galore> jared_: the file manager should show what group a set file is part of if any
[05:39] <zero88> clearzen ok kool
[05:39] <thynctank> not to knock slackware of course hehe
[05:39] <Pelo> zero88,  you don'T want to do that,  you make your computer vulnarable,  besides sudo has a timer on it so you don'T need to do it every 5 seconds
[05:39] <jared_> thanks :)
[05:39] <zero88> Pelo ya i know, but if i do it, then read something or do something else and need to do it agian, it gets long
[05:39] <Linux_Galore> jared_: same file manager should allow the owner to change it too
[05:40] <Pelo> zero88,  what are you doing that you need to run as root so much ?
[05:40] <clearzen> zero88: Just be careful root won't give you warnings. Try not to stay logged in as root as well.
[05:40] <MFen> i don't suppose anyone remembers the nick of the person i was talking to earlier
[05:40] <Flannel> zero88: you can start a root shell, `sudo -i` instead of enabling the root account.
[05:40] <MFen> i wanted to thank them, and tell them i figured out the solution
[05:41] <MFen> but i'll blog about it instead
[05:41] <Linux_Galore> hmm, theres an idea, a safe root login that stop you doing stupid things
[05:41] <Flannel> MFen: hendrixski, but he's apparently gone
[05:41] <zero88> Pelo nothing right this moment,but there are times when i do need to, like if im trying out cad programs or something, i will read up on them then try to download, try it out,then download another one in liek 20 minutes and so on
[05:41] <beg1689> are PC infared ports obsolete or are they still attempted to be supported (in general or within ubuntu)
[05:41] <MFen> Flannel: wow, you're good. yep, that was it. :)
[05:41] <zero88> Flannel ok, that jsut starts a root shell
[05:41] <Linux_Galore> rm -rf /  Not allowed please type another command
[05:41] <jedidor> I have been having a problem with 3d acceleration. The drivers are installed. glxgears works fine, beryl works fine. I have no errors except when I try to run a game in wine or cedega. Has anyone had this problem before?
[05:41] <Shadowfire> I usually use sudo - i on ssh login's ... it works great...
[05:41] <harry> I'm trying to set up my computer as a DHCP server, following these instructions http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_DHCP_Server_for_automatic_IP_addresses_assignment , but it isn't working
[05:41] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: There is.  It's called normal user accounts.
[05:42] <Flannel> zero88: that's correct
[05:42] <Linux_Galore> Flannel: yeah but you want to let them edit file but not delete whole system directories
[05:42] <clearzen> beg1689: I use them for a remote for mythtv
[05:42] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: Editing is deleting.
[05:42] <thynctank> anyhow, thanks Pelo, all
[05:42] <thynctank> ciao!
[05:42] <Pelo> np
[05:42] <bruenig> what if you want to delete everything, how would you do that
[05:43] <beg1689> clearzen: is it a lot of work?i have an infrared port on my laptop and i was wondering if i could get a remote working for it
[05:43] <bruenig> with the warnings in place
[05:43] <Flannel> bruenig: you'd setup something that looks remarkably like sudo ;)
[05:43] <Shadowfire> jedidor: yes I have... first you want to check your video can handle direct rendering.  if it says no then you will have to reinstall your drivers for your video drivers properly...
[05:43] <Alizarium> anyone here us beryl by chance?
[05:43] <bruenig> a root root user accessible through sudo
[05:43] <bruenig> awesome idea
[05:44] <Flannel> Alizarium: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support
[05:44] <Shadowfire> Alizarium: I have user beryl... I use it now...
[05:44] <payan> harry: What error do you get on the log file?
[05:44] <clearzen> beg1689: It is doable. Most likely you will have to compile code along the way. I don't know exactly how to do it for you laptop but there is plenty of wiki's for mythtv that outline it
[05:44] <jedidor> Shadowfire: It says yes when I checked.
[05:44] <Alizarium> thanks, i ll go to that channel
[05:44] <clearzen> beg1689: google around a little
[05:44] <beg1689> alright ill try
[05:45] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: if you want, you can customize sudo to allow users to say, run nano, but not rm.
[05:45] <tehxed> Linux_Galore: That reconfiguring xorg did nothing
[05:46] <Alizarium> i do not see the effect channel
[05:46] <jedidor> Shadowfire: it is only when I goto run like wow or a steam game. I have been trying to figure it out for a while.
[05:46] <Flannel> Alizarium: effects
[05:46] <arooni> when i have an image file, how do i tell it to launch with whatever default file handler is setup for that type (from the command line) ??
[05:46] <Shadowfire> jedidor: have you done a fulltest in Cedega?
[05:46] <bruenig> arooni, an image file? like png?
[05:46] <Linux_Galore> Flannel: yes but normal people cant do this
[05:46] <harry> payan: I don't. The client doesn't reco gnize the server.
[05:46] <jedidor> Yes, it says everything is working perfectly.
[05:46] <jedidor> Shadowfire:
[05:46] <digilink> Are there any known issues with flash sound on Feisty? Im having a heck of a time trying to get it to work....
[05:46] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: eh?  Your administrator would have to set it up.
[05:46] <arooni> bruenig: sure but id like to be able to launch *any* fiel regardless of type using default file hadnler from cl
[05:46] <Flannel> digilink: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support
[05:46] <bruenig> arooni, not going to happen
[05:47] <digilink> flannel: tnx
[05:47] <bruenig> arooni, unless you setup a script to do that
[05:47] <Linux_Galore> Flannel: yes some 40 something mother with kids has an on hand admin
[05:47] <bruenig> arooni, what do you want the syntax to be to achieve this? just type the name of the file? (that won't work because then how would it run scripts)
[05:47] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: Oh.  You mean normal people can't set it up?  Right.  But normal people don't usually have to worry about multiple accounts and having to have a tiered permission system.
[05:48] <payan> harry: Whats the state of the dhcp server?
[05:48] <zbadone> howdo you stop apache from running every bootup, dont want to unistall it though, I know somewhere in the rcX.d
[05:48] <Linux_Galore> Flannel: yes but normal people read howto and do typos thus wrecking the install
[05:48] <jrib> zbadone: system > administration > services
[05:48] <Linux_Galore> howto's*
[05:48] <arooni> bruenig: i guess i get confused depending on what file type it is (and what program handles that type)
[05:48] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: with the technically uninclined you cited, you wouldn't ever get them to figure out which hoops to jump through to remove the files they actually WANT to remove, if you disallowed that.
[05:48] <jedidor> Shadowfire: I did see something about 64 bit systems, and this occurring. The only problem is I am on a 32 bit system. Aside from that I have not found anything close to the problem.
[05:49] <arooni> bruenig: i mean there has to be a way... if you double click a file via the gui shell, it has to do the same thing
[05:49] <delmar> hey everyone. I am having a GRUB issue with a fresh install.   4 drives in this box. 2 sata 2 not, so I have hda, hdb, sda, sdb.   I installed to /dev/sda (sda1 is root)  .  In  /boot/grub/devices.map (hd2) points to /dev/sda.  In menu.lst the root is (hd2,0).  However, when the system boots, grub says Error 15 file not found.  At the grub prompt I discovered the system drive is now hd0 not hd2.  I did a 'rescue' and edited the menu.l
[05:49] <delmar> st changing hd2 to hd0 and this works!!. but every time update-grub runs, it breaks it again
[05:49] <harry> it's running on eth1. I tried restarting it, but it didn't help
[05:49] <zbadone> jrib: its on a Ubuntu server, no monitor
[05:49] <bruenig> arooni, you could write a script that would do that, call the script openfile or something and then set it up to where if the file was a .png it would open in fspot, if it was avi open with totem or whatever
[05:49] <Shadowfire> jedidor: I see... interesting... sounds like you should be set... I am not big on Cedega. I just canceled my account this evening.  I wanted to help them with funds, but I just don't see Cedega as a true solution, it is more of a bandaid.. Linux needs game creators to use native ports,
[05:49] <Linux_Galore> Flannel: Im not saying they would intentionally do it, people make mistakes, especially those not familair with the system
[05:49] <nicoc_> hello
[05:49] <zbadone> jrib: I can ssh to the server
[05:50] <nicoc_> can anyone help me installing ubunyu edgy on parallels?
[05:50] <jedidor> I actually prefer wine over Cedega. I get the same thing in wine though.
[05:50] <arooni> bruenig: well for now; what prgm should i use to open image files?
[05:50] <jpsamara> anyone uses xubuntu?
[05:50] <bruenig> arooni, to edit them or what
[05:50] <bruenig> jpjacobs, I do
[05:50] <delmar> So, why is grub at boot time seeing my boot drive as hd0, then once the system has booted, grub is seeing it as hd2  ?
[05:50] <bruenig> !info fspot
[05:50] <ubotu> Package fspot does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[05:50] <bruenig> !info f-spot
[05:50] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: disallowing them to rm / isn't a mistake most people make.  Except when stupid people try and trick them nito it.  Since most people don't ever rm any sstem files, just edit them.
[05:50] <arooni> bruenig: no for now, just to view; ... but id love a good pgrm for image editing too
[05:50] <ubotu> f-spot: personal photo management application. In component main, is optional. Version 0.2.1-1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 573 kB, installed size 3396 kB
[05:50] <colbert> I have a video file I was seeing in file browser, and instead of showing the thumbnail preview, it only shows a video file icon, how do I get it to show the preview? Some files do, but on a few occasions some have not and I'm just unclear as to why
[05:50] <payan> harry: what's  you config file?
[05:50] <payan> pastebin it
[05:51] <bruenig> arooni, evince file should work
[05:51] <Linux_Galore> Flannel: Im just saying when in sudo that there should be a command filter (that can be disabled by the none newbies) that warns them they are about to self destruct the system
[05:51] <pyrak> how do i play mp3s?
[05:51] <jedidor> Shadowfire: I don't like paying for emulators. This has me completely stumped The weird thing is, I had the exact same setup. I just reinstalled and it is on the reinstall that it is not working.
[05:51] <jpsamara> anyone uses xubuntu ? which applet for wifi do you use?
[05:51] <Flannel> delmar: which set grub sees as 0,1 and 2,3 is determined by the BIOS
[05:51] <pyrak> also, is there a way to search for wireless networks with edgy?
[05:51] <nicoc_> can anyone help me installung ubungu edgy on parallels??
[05:52] <pyrak> instead of having to write in the name?
[05:52] <crdlb> jpsamara, you could use nm-applet (NetworkManager) since it's really a notification area icon
[05:52] <delmar> Flannel, why does it see the drive order different before the kernel is loaded, then a different order once the system is booted?
[05:52] <Shadowfire> jedidor: yikes! restall and still doesn't work.  Was this a reinstall of Wine/Cedega or OS?
[05:52] <clearzen> pyrak: wifi radar works pretty well
[05:52] <jedidor> Shadowfire: Pretty good at installing the drivers right. It took me forever to get beryl installed right on this nvidia ti 4 card.
[05:52] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: this is getting offtopic, we could move to #ubuntu-offtopic if you'd like.  But, there are an infinite number of ways to 'ruin' a system, and an infinite number of close ones that are perfectly normal and harmless.  The overhead for that sort of thing would be enormous and relatively pointless.
[05:52] <Crazytom> pyrak, in a terminal sudo iwlist eth1 list
[05:52] <jedidor> Shadowfire: All 3.
[05:52] <Crazytom> pyrak, if your wireless interface is eth1
[05:52] <zbadone> I would like to stop Apache on a headless server from not  starting during bootup, I can chmod -x /etc/init.d/apache or unistall it, but would like to do it the proper way? any ideas?
[05:52] <jpsamara> crdlb: but i would have to lad gnome libs under xfce wouldnt i?
[05:52] <Flannel> delmar: once the kernel is loaded, you shouldn't be using hd0-4 anyway, you'd be hda and sda and stuff.
[05:53] <harry> !pastebin
[05:53] <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)
[05:53] <Linux_Galore> Flannel: Ive actually seen a user use sudo and remove all the file in the wrong directory, sudo didnt say a thing, it should have asked "you are about to delete 134 files are you sure [Y/n] "
[05:53] <clearzen> Linux_Galore: I always liked the fact linux doesn't try to tell me what to do. It would be annoying I think
[05:53] <crdlb> jpsamara, yeah I guess, it uses gconf at least
[05:53] <pyrak> crazytom, iwlist is an unknown command
[05:53] <delmar> Flannel, all I know is ubuntu or grub is messed up.
[05:53] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:53] <Linux_Galore> clearzen: to you yes, to a newbie no
[05:53] <jpsamara> maybe ill port gtkwifi to xfce
[05:53] <harry> payan: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14665/
[05:53] <Crazytom> did you install iw tools
[05:53] <delmar> Flannel, what can I do to fix this?
[05:53] <crimsun> colbert: hi, please don't query me, as I can't respond privately.
[05:54] <Crazytom> pyrak, does iwconfig work
[05:54] <zbadone> something lijke remove apache default? does that sound lright?
[05:54] <clearzen> Linux_Galore: valid point. As long as I could turn it off
[05:54] <Linux_Galore>  ubuntu-offtopic = worlds dumbest idea
[05:54] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: no.  It's the appropriate channel for this discussion.
[05:54] <anindya> anybody used geforce 8800 with 6.10?
[05:54] <jedidor> Shadowfire: Found out that with the Nvidia Ti 4 cards in edgy you have to have the legacy drivers installed with nvidia-glx because nvidia-legacy-glx will cause everything to lock up or just wont run properly
[05:54] <pyrak> crazytom, yep
[05:55] <Linux_Galore> Flannel: no its kills the topic because I cant watch two channels
[05:55] <Alizarium> sorry to be a noob, but all i c is the #ubuntu channel, no Ubuntu-effects one?, new to this program
[05:55] <zbadone> oh well, nobody willing to answer!
[05:55] <zbadone> or know
[05:55] <beg1689> is mythtv.org down or just really slow?
[05:55] <Flannel> Alizarium: #ubuntu-effects, it does exist, I just checked.
[05:56] <Crazytom> pyrak, did you use sudo?
[05:56] <Alizarium> is it in the main list when you start the program?
[05:56] <Flannel> Linux_Galore: just because you can't watch two channels doesn't give you permission to talk about whatever you want in this one
[05:56] <Linux_Galore> zbadone: just remove the package with dpkg
[05:56] <Flannel> Alizarium: probably not, no.  Type "/join #ubuntu-effects"
[05:56] <Alizarium> and how do you send a private msg :)
[05:56] <dru> oh god what a pain in the ass
[05:56] <zbadone> Linux_Galore: My orig post said I didnt want to do that
[05:56] <Shadowfire> jedidor: When does it error out for you?
[05:56] <pyrak> crazytom, yes
[05:57] <delmar> Flannel, so basically update-grub is setting the 'root' option in menu.lst to (hd2,0) ... but when grub loads a boot time, hd2 is no longer hd2.  at boot time hd2 is actually hd0.  if I edit menu.lst to reflect this, the system boots.  when a kernel is installed and update-grub does it's thing, it will break again.
[05:57] <Crazytom> then try wifi radar
[05:57] <Linux_Galore> zbadone: then all you do is remove the startup script from your init setup
[05:57] <richw> Im on Ubuntu Feisty.. deicided its too unstable.. how I go back to Edgy?
[05:57] <zbadone> Linux_Galore: and if I wanted to restart after 5-6 month?
[05:57] <shawn34> richw, lol
[05:57] <Flannel> delmar: that definately sounds like a bug.  Report it at launchpad.
[05:57] <zbadone> If I remeber to add it back in?
[05:58] <richw> I have to format the whole thing :-(
[05:58] <richw> ?
[05:58] <pyrak> crazytom, dont worry about it, im just installing wifi radar
[05:58] <shawn34> richw, backup, format, install
[05:58] <richw> Bummer
[05:58] <Linux_Galore> zbadone: you can start it manually or just relink the startup script,  you dont remove the actuall script just the link
[05:58] <payan> harry: Itn seams right
[05:58] <clearzen> richw: Did you backup your system?
[05:58] <richw> Nope but I have spare drives
[05:58] <delmar> Flannel, ok cheers
[05:58] <zbadone> Linux_Galore: isnt there something like add apache default or something similiar?
[05:58] <richw> a identical 320GB
[05:58] <payan> harry: I have a line to declare te interface
[05:58] <Flannel> zbadone: update.rc -f apache2 remove
[05:59] <nonuda_> can someone tell me the command line of smbfs using username and password to mount a shared folder?
[05:59] <clearzen> richw: If you are installing beta software, I reccomend a backup in the future. It will save you a lot of headaches
[05:59] <harry> payan: what?
[05:59] <richw> clearzen: Didnt think it would be this bad
[05:59] <Flannel> richw: It is still beta software.
[05:59] <richw> I got mythtv going crazy on me
[05:59] <StoneNote> Dick Cheney Ruins Easter http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GN1kBxOW6k0

[06:00] <richw> clearzen: and the mythtv backend segfaulted
[06:00] <StoneNote> oh I'm sorry I posted that in the wrong window
[06:00] <clearzen> richw: You may have to uninstall and then re-install
[06:01] <jedidor> Shadowfire: When it goes to load the game, it will say "Unable to start up 3D acceleration"
[06:01] <clearzen> richw: backup everything you have saved on it so you can keep it of course
[06:01] <clearzen> richw: rsync is your friend
[06:01] <Linux_Galore> http://linuxmce.com/
[06:02] <richw> clearzen: Wish there was a way to get a list of packages that I have installed that DONT come as standard
[06:02] <dynaemu> I have a quick question about servers... I heard ubuntu is only good for desktop use, and was reccomended Fedora to have as a desktop and a server... can anyone tell me if this information is accurate or not?
[06:02] <richw> clearzen: then I could make a apt-get list when i reinstall
[06:02] <Flannel> richw: dpkg -l
[06:02] <josh_> can someone help partioning my hard drive
[06:03] <Flannel> richw: then diff it with dpkg -l of edgy when you reinstall
[06:03] <clearzen> richw: hmmm, I bet I could do that in emacs...that's a good idea
[06:03] <richw> Flannel: Oh I suppose it will ignore the already installed ones
[06:03] <richw> with that command
[06:03] <Pelo> dynaemu,  thre is a server edition of ubuntu ,  ppl seem to like it,  but ubuntu is known for being a desktop distro for the masses
[06:03] <Flannel> richw: shrug.  Just diff it.  But also, there will be some differences because of feisty (version differences)
[06:03] <Flannel> dynaemu: it's not.  Debian servers have been in ...w ell, server use, since forever.  And ubuntu is the same.
[06:04] <payan> harry
[06:04] <richw> Flannel: I want dpg -l in package1 package2 package3 format
[06:04] <clearzen> richw: I wouldn't uninstall the whole system just mythtv
[06:04] <punto> hi.. how do I configure the keyboard layout for the console?
[06:04] <Flannel> richw: so, write a sed command to strip it all.
[06:04] <payan> harry: This is mine http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14669/
[06:04] <richw> clearzen: Hows that gonna help, I will still have a unstable mythtv
[06:04] <netdaemon> anyone use grip?
[06:05] <clearzen> richw: I found sometimes an update will break a package but a re-install will stablize it
[06:05] <payan> you can try installing GDHCPD. It's a gnome interface to configure the dhcp
[06:05] <clearzen> richw: acidrip broke on me when I upgraded then a uninstalled and reinstalled and it's been fine for instance

[06:12] <richw> safer: wait for it to come out
[06:12] <Pelo> josh_,  you need to make one of your existing partition smaller so you have space to make a new partition to install ubuntu on ?
[06:12] <sbalneav> Fylk: Intel video chipset?
[06:12] <Fylk> Yep.
[06:12] <tritium> cX-kads: openoffice.org has a database component
[06:12] <josh_> Pelo: yes thats right
[06:12] <sbalneav> Fylk: Install the package 915resolution
[06:12] <Fylk> How do I do that?
[06:13] <josh_> i am having the gparted on with a terminal open
[06:13] <sbalneav> From the Synaptic package manager.
[06:13] <Pelo> josh_,  ok do you know which partition you need to resize ?  would that be a windows ntfs partition ?
[06:13] <josh_> Pelo: yes
[06:13] <sbalneav> Fylk: It's under System -> Administration
[06:13] <Pelo> josh_,  first ,  boot up windows,  defrag that partition and backup your important data
[06:14] <Fylk> Sbal, can you help me do that, I'm a very big nooblet.
[06:14] <josh_> Pelo: we already defrag the pc
[06:14] <Fylk> Never mind.
[06:14] <josh_> Pelo: we dfrag the windows c partition
[06:14] <sbalneav> Fylk: Go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic package Manager
[06:14] <Pelo> josh_,  and you've backup your important data ? because there it a small risk
[06:14] <sbalneav> Search for 915resolution
[06:15] <josh_> Pelo: yes
[06:15] <Fylk> Every time I try to install, its gives me an error.
[06:15] <cX-kads> tritium: I can't use the file create with base with ASP

[06:16] <Penguinchrissy> nothing
[06:16] <Fylk> Hold on, I think it was human error.
[06:16] <Pelo> josh_,  ok,  from gparted,   select the ntfs partition,   rightclick   > resize /move,   select your new size ( leave at least  15 gig for ubuntu) ,  in the gparted menu  select edit > apply ,,  let me know when that is done for the next step
[06:16] <FunnyLookinHat> Penguinchrissy, try running it from console and see if there is any error message
[06:16] <Penguinchrissy> k
[06:16] <humility> Sorry, I mean affect.

[06:19] <Fylk> I don't know what, I'm behind a college proxy server....
[06:19] <josh_> Pelo: it says if you want support  you need  to provide the saved details, and then it provides me a web address
[06:19] <comodo> can anyone tell me how to install nvidia drivers in ubuntu edgy 6.10
[06:19] <sbalneav> Fylk: Your proxy might be blocking your access to Ubuntu repositories.  Check with your network helpdesk for information regarding policies and access.
[06:19] <Pelo> josh_,  support for what ?
[06:20] <josh_> Pelo: it occur an error
[06:20] <Penguinchrissy> comodo: you can go to ubuntuguide.org it has great instructions
[06:20] <Fylk> They won't help me at all. Any other way to install?
[06:20] <sparr> Is there a policy governing what version of a program should be "the" version in main?  I see some package maintainers using the latest 'stable' version, some using the latest release, some using the latest dev version, etc.
[06:20] <josh_> Pelo: what happen we try to do it before, but i click on saved i think its asking for something of that
[06:20] <payan> josh_ It always gives an error but it get risized anyway
[06:20] <snowpunk98> I dont suppose anyone could help me get my Logitech MX510 thumb buttons working?/
[06:20] <sbalneav> Fylk: You don't have to ask them to help you, just whether or not they're blocking certain ports/hosts etc.
[06:20] <Pelo> josh_,  then you will have to use a windows program to resize the partition or ,  trash your current install an start from scratch
[06:21] <Fylk> With them, the answer is likely yet.
[06:21] <sbalneav> Fylk: Can you browse the web?
[06:21] <Fylk> Yep.
[06:21] <payan> josh_ try again and check if you have free space now
[06:22] <Fylk> But they block most FTP access. No idea why. I'm a comp sci dual major.
[06:22] <sbalneav> Fylk: Have you modified your sources.list at all?
[06:22] <josh_> Pelo: we have a rstore parittition does it have something to do with
[06:22] <Fylk> No.
[06:22] <Fylk> I don't even know how to do that yet.
[06:22] <payan> josh_ try again and check if you have free space now
[06:22] <sbalneav> Fylk: What happens if, at a command prompt, you enter "apt-get update"?
[06:23] <Fylk> Hold on...its saying that 915resolution is installed.
[06:23] <Pelo> josh_,  it shouldn'T , for some reason,  gparted occasionnaly has trouble resizing ntfs partitions,  not always but occasionnaly, this seems to be one of those times
[06:23] <sbalneav> Sorry, sudo apt-get update
[06:23] <josh_> ok

[06:23] <Fylk> I can run the OS update.
[06:23] <arooni> flag/unflag a property of all foo models
[06:23] <arooni> oops
[06:23] <arooni> wrong channe;
[06:24] <Fylk> Sbalneave, what would I do once its installed?
[06:24] <sbalneav> Fylk: So what happens if you say "sudo apt-get install 915resolution"?
[06:24] <payan> josh_ try again and check if you have free space now
[06:25] <josh_> ok
[06:25] <Fylk> Wait a tick, if the box next to the package in synaptic is green, does that mean its installed?
[06:25] <sbalneav> Fylk: Yes.  Did you just install it?
[06:25] <Fylk> Yesh. Now what.
[06:26] <sbalneav> Fylk: Shut down and reboot.
[06:26] <Fylk> Ok, brb all you made hoops.

[06:35] <Pelo> MmmPancakes,  ask in #beryl
[06:35] <numan> anybody know how to solve this problem with display during installation-->http://img81.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc00530xk4.jpg
[06:35] <eternaljoy> where does Ubuntu store all the eth0 and networking files?  perhaps I can copy them from the working USB ubuntu to  my HDD ubnutu? yes?
[06:35] <MmmPancakes> got it
[06:35] <josh_> is there other software to partioning the hard drive besides the gparted
[06:35] <eternaljoy> The3Infinit3On3: it worked for months, but tody I changed networking from AUTO DHCP to Static IP.  And it stopped connecting. But now when I try to go back to Auto DHCP, it stil wont connect!  Any iudeas pls?
[06:35] <Pelo> josh_,  a silly question here, but how much space is available on your hdd ?
[06:35] <safer> is there a command to see all the ubuntu channels????
[06:36] <niriven> anyone know why i dont see "vpn connections" in the nm-applet?
[06:36] <josh_> 25 gb
[06:36] <Pelo> josh_,  and how much space are you trying to free up when you resize ?
[06:36] <crimsun> niriven: do you have network-manager-vpnc or network-manager-openvpn installed?

[06:36] <lambo4jos> i am trying to install ubuntu edgy on a usb external western digital drive through the graphical desktop install on a dell lapt
[06:37] <lambo4jos> my internal hard drive is /dev/sda with sda1 fat16 sda2 as ntfs and sda3 as fat32.
[06:37] <niriven> crimsun: probably not, which do you recommend?
[06:37] <lambo4jos> my external drive is /dev/sdb with nothing on it.
[06:37] <lambo4jos> after going through the setup process, i reach a screen saying 'GRUB will be installed to (hd0)'
[06:37] <Pelo> josh_,  ok so that isn'T the problem,   try partitionmagic it's a windows app for partitioning, once you've freed up the space you'll be ok to instal ubuntu
[06:37] <drumline_> How would I setup a mail server where two people using Outlook could access the folders at the same time.  Would that be an IMAP server?
[06:37] <lambo4jos> am i ok with (hd0), or does this need to change?
[06:38] <ripzaw> hello
[06:38] <The3Infinit3On3> enternaljoy: eth0 is just the reference to your ethernet connection on ubuntu. You can make sure it is configured properly by clicking on the two small monitors by the ubuntu clock
[06:38] <Pelo> g'night folks
[06:38] <josh_> Pelo: is there a website where i can download it for free
[06:38] <Pelo> josh_,  try google

[06:42] <gumby600m> is there a way for ubuntu (or more specifically, Gnome) to tell me the size of a window as I'm adjusting it?
[06:43] <gumby600m> If so... how do I set that up?

[06:47] <corevette_> i don't know eternaljoy
[06:47] <RIPABITCHX> anyone installed quake2 on ubuntu yet?
[06:47] <ajmorris_> ardchoille, i mean the 'config' files, like kde's are .desktop files
[06:47] <goldfshb0i> Can anyone tell me how to get files with chinese characters to show up?
[06:47] <ardchoille> ajmorris_: Those items are .desktop files in /usr/share/applications
[06:47] <T0uCH> nobodys knows why iam not able to see my windows xp files and partitions i cant acces is it normal?
[06:47] <eternaljoy> !dhclient
[06:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dhclient - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:47] <ajmorris_> ardchoille, ah tks, i looked everywhere but there :)
[06:47] <wims> eternaljoy,  this is what dhclient do ->
[06:47] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Had Quake 2 running a while ago.
[06:47] <wims> oops
[06:48] <wims> http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man8/dhclient.8.html
[06:48] <corevette_> T0uch can you see them in gparted?

[06:48] <T0uCH> yea but i cant acces
[06:48] <ardchoille> ajmorris_: If you make changes to the menus as user, the changes will be in ~/.local/share/applications

[06:48] <numan> help others to get help for yourself
[06:48] <jaypro> im formating a 2nd harddrive.  what does it matter how many or how big each cylinder is?
[06:48] <wims> safer,  dc-gui is decent, but not as good as dc++
[06:48] <RIPABITCHX> relia: can you help me with the install.... I don't know how to get loki installer working
[06:49] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Suppose so, how far have you gotten?
[06:49] <goldfshb0i> Can anyone tell me how to get files with chinese characters to show up?
[06:49] <safer> yeah I tried to install that before - didn't turn out good
[06:50] <T0uCH> is it because i am running on the boot cd that im not able to open my partitons?
[06:50] <RIPABITCHX> relia: I have the loki installer files all downloaded, and the loki_quake installer ready to go
[06:50] <safer> I would install valknut but they'll ban me for using it (for some strange reason)
[06:50] <numan> relia: i want to install ubuntu but have displayproblem after boot
[06:50] <mneptok> DC++. YAP2P protocol. yay.
[06:50] <bluecat9> Q: <- disregard... i answered my own question. :)
[06:50] <relia> RIPABITCHX: And?
[06:51] <wims> safer,  i tried to install it from source a few years back, it was painful, but now you can do it with sudo apt-get install dcgui
[06:51] <wims> easy as that
[06:51] <wims> remember that some of the hubs dont allow clients like dcgui
[06:51] <numan> wims: what for dcgui?
[06:51] <RIPABITCHX> relia: having problems installing the loki installer
[06:51] <numan> relia: plz reply
[06:51] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Does it start up at all?
[06:51] <wims> numan,  i didnt understand your question
[06:52] <trey> anyone got any tips on maeking ubuntu run better
[06:52] <numan> wims: what is dcgui?
[06:52] <trey> my computer was alot faster with xp and i dont understand why
[06:52] <relia> numan: Not sure where you're coming from. :V
[06:52] <wims> numan,  its a direct connect client for linux
[06:52] <safer> Does anyone know if upgrading ubuntu from (edgy ult edition*) straight to feisty is a good idea???
[06:52] <RIPABITCHX> relia: cant seem to find libgtk-1.2.so.0 during the loki install
[06:52] <safer> Thanks wims
[06:52] <numan> wims: because i want to install ubuntu
[06:52] <corevette_> !alt
[06:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:52] <mneptok> safer: what is this "Ulitimate Edition?"
[06:53] <corevette_> !altcd
[06:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about altcd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:53] <numan> relia: why not sure?
[06:53] <corevette_> !alternative
[06:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alternative - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:53] <corevette_> !alt-cd
[06:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alt-cd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:53] <Madpilot> safer, the so-called "ultimate" editions of Ubuntu are not supported officially. What happens when you upgrade is anyones guess.
[06:53] <MmmPancakes> safer: i safely upgraded from dapper to edgy this morning - no problems at all
[06:53] <trey> is there anyway to update from edgy to feisty without downloading and burning a new cd
[06:53] <RIPABITCHX> help
[06:53] <wims> whats "ultimate" about it anyway ?
[06:53] <ardchoille> !upgrade
[06:53] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:53] <safer> I'm talking about edgy to feisty
[06:54] <mneptok> Madpilot: is this another "we add stuff so you don't have to learn to use Synaptic and you can watch your kernel DIE!" things?
[06:54] <nonuda_> fesity #ubuntu+1
[06:54] <nonuda_> !feisty
[06:54] <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)
[06:54] <ardchoille> mneptok: hahahaha
[06:54] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Is the libgtk1.2 package installed? You might need to symlink it.
[06:54] <Madpilot> mneptok, yup. Ubuntu + pre-installed Autobreakitz2, basically.
[06:54] <MmmPancakes> safer: it will probably be fine..be sure to backup any important files though, as always
[06:54] <mneptok> oh dear god
[06:54] <safer> ok good
[06:54] <mneptok> when will people learn?
[06:54] <safer> !feisty
[06:54] <safer> lol
[06:54] <numan> wims: can you solve my problem with ubuntu installation?
[06:55] <mneptok> safer: i suggest you upgrade to Edgy with a clean install. like, now.
[06:55] <Madpilot> safer, if you had real Edgy, not the Ultimate thing, it would quite likely work. whether 'ultimate' upgrades gracefully is anyone's guess.
[06:55] <wims> numan i dont even know what your problem is , so i guess the answer is no
[06:56] <MmmPancakes> is Feisty safe to upgrade to right now? it might be better to wait until the official release next week
[06:56] <mneptok> safer: and before you say "i'm running Edgy NOW..." ... well, you ain't. :P
[06:56] <T0uCH> i see my windows xp partitions in the gnome... but i cant access from anywhere.. waht should i do
[06:56] <numan> wims: during installation of ubuntu i never get through the whole process due to this -->http://img81.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc00530xk4.jpg
[06:56] <corevette_> MmPancakes: Feisty is stable right now...but it'd be better to wait so you have all the final updates IMO
[06:56] <relia> MmmPancakes: I'd wait for the beta in the 12th, HERD6 got canned (originally scheduled for 04/05).
[06:56] <relia> I mean the RC on the 12th, not the beta. lol
[06:57] <MmmPancakes> Corvette and relia: That's more or less what I was thinking. I have too much time invested in my system to brick it with an unstable release
[06:58] <corevette_> MmmPancakes: a very good reason not to upgrade yet...it is a hard wait...
[06:58] <relia> The beta was pretty solid for me, aside from parted not recognizing my partitions. lol
[06:58] <corevette_> MmmPancakes: but it is worth it
[06:58] <numan> wims: have you seen it?
[06:58] <FunnyLookinHat> numan, you should try to boot in safe graphics mode
[06:58] <MmmPancakes> corevette: indeed..I can't wait to give it a test run....
[06:58] <safer> Why is the (so-called) "ultimate" version viewed so badly?? lol
[06:59] <mneptok> safer: because it's bad.
[06:59] <corevette_> MmmPancakes, if you are worried about the upgrade you can always ask for opinions/help in #ubuntu+1 (feisty channel)
[06:59] <numan> funnylookinhat: itried safe graphica mode also tried this art boot options vga=16 acpi=off
[06:59] <trey> how is feisty
[06:59] <trey> and better than edgy
[06:59] <mneptok> numan: 16?!
[06:59] <wims> numan,  i've seen similar screens like 10 years ago, the error back then was that i used a refresh rate that was too high for my monitor, but i think they've put safe refresh rates by default now. So i'm not really sure what it is. If it happens when you try toi start the installer you could maybe try to start the text mode installer instead of the gui installer. Not sure what the command for starting that installer is though
[06:59] <FunnyLookinHat> numan, yea...  16 = no good.    what graphics card do you have?
[07:00] <T0uCH> i just wanna know somethings that is very simple... :(... somebody anwser me please... i cant access my windows xp partition but i can see them in the gnome partitioner... im on the boot cd... if i install ubuntu will i be able to access my files or i need to do something???
[07:00] <safer> lol --- the worst thing about it is that you don't really know what steps to take after installing lol
[07:00] <relia> RIPABITCHX: 'allo?
[07:00] <mneptok> safer: the worst thing about it is that eventually your system will break in horrible, unfixable ways.
[07:00] <numan> funny: i got nvidia geforce 6200
[07:00] <MmmPancakes> t0uch: try reinstalling Gnome
[07:00] <ajmorris_> anyone running engage on gnome?
[07:00] <cafuego_> T0uCH: You will need to add 'uid=1000,umask=002' in the fstab file.
[07:00] <RIPABITCHX> relia
[07:00] <yurimxpxman> I just used the command qemu -kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.17-11-generic -initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-11-generic myharddisk.img and it hangs on "Begin: Waiting for root file system... ..." Does this mean I have to format my img file, and if so, how?
[07:01] <relia> RIPABITCHX: You check to see if the packge libgtk1.2 was installed?
[07:01] <MmmPancakes> t0uch: disregard previous comment..i misread
[07:01] <cafuego_> T0uCH: By default, only root cna read NTFS. By adding those, user id 1000 can read 'em (no reinstalling required, thanks for nothing MmmPancakes)
[07:01] <clutchmm> I have a very strange problem
[07:01] <RIPABITCHX> cant seem to get past that dam libgtk-1.2.so.0 file
[07:01] <MmmPancakes> cafuego: yeah its been a long day
[07:01] <safer> ..........Ahhm - like NOW!!!!! ----- frozen during upgrade to feisty ---- I'm gonna be screwed!!!!!.............
[07:01] <cRoN_ICE2> shnet.org
[07:01] <FunnyLookinHat> numan, that's just weird.  sorry man, I have no ideas then...  : (
[07:02] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Check to see if the package is installed. If you have some version of it installed, it's the simple matter of creating a symlink to the newer version.
[07:02] <lambo4jos> anyone know why my external hard drive install didn't work?  i unhooked the internal drive, installed to external usb drive, connected back the internal drive, set bios to boot from usb, and it gets to the ubuntu screen to load then freezes.  what gives?
[07:02] <numan> wims: i tried the text version installer but after the installation when computer reboots it give me the same screen
[07:03] <RIPABITCHX> where would be the best place to check to see if the package is installed... The Synaptic Package Manager isn't helping at all...
[07:03] <lambo4jos> without the internal drive in, ubuntu boots fine.  it is only when i reconnect the internal drive
[07:03] <trey> is the generic kernel really the best for 686 architecture or is there a better way
[07:03] <trey> my comp just doesnt run like it should
[07:03] <trey> and iv searched the forums
[07:03] <relia> RIPABITCHX: You scared of the terminal much? :P
[07:03] <cafuego_> trey: It's really the best.
[07:03] <FunnyLookinHat> numan, do you have an onboard graphics port and a separate graphics card?  it could be that your BIOS needs to have the onboard enabled as default and plug your monitor into that to install, then configure the card and use that.
[07:04] <trey> man that sucks
[07:04] <trey> i know theres gotta be away to get this thing movein right
[07:04] <mneptok> safer: i *told* you to do a clean install of Edgy. but noooooo ....
[07:04] <somafm> if I want to mount a folder with "sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.254/shared /mnt/shared" on startup, should I just add that line to /etc/fstab? or do i need to do something else
[07:04] <RIPABITCHX> relia: nope not scared of terminal....
[07:04] <trey> it doesnt even wanna play flash games right
[07:04] <wims> numan,  i think you can fix that problem by tweaking your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:04] <numan> funny i also tried that but didnot work fr me because i have to pull out my display card to let onboard vga work
[07:05] <wims> i have no idea exactly what tweaks are needed for your hardware
[07:05] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Do this in the terminal: dpkg -l libgtk1.2
[07:05] <yurimxpxman> is there a command built into the kernel to format a disk?
[07:05] <RIPABITCHX> relia: how do I check if that package is installed, and if not, where can I get it installed...?
[07:05] <fotoflo> hey im looking at the diffrent versions of ubuntu, whats LTS mean?
[07:05] <safer> As a user of the "ultimate ubuntu edition" ---- I suggest that NO ONE downloads it because your install will perish within a few days, you will have great difficulties updating/upgrading as well -- there are clear glitches with certain sessions available -- drivers are "unstable" -- etc.
[07:05] <trey> fdisk
[07:05] <FunnyLookinHat> numan, my only other suggestion is to try the daily-build of feisty (or just wait till feisty is officially released)
[07:05] <mneptok> numan: did you actually disable the onboard graphics in the BIOS?
[07:05] <relia> Should spit out a table showing any packages by that name. If there isn't one: sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2
[07:05] <PORDO> i keep adding my DNS to resolv.conf but it keeps being over written.  anyone?
[07:05] <safer> ****crying***** lol
[07:06] <alfish> Hi.
[07:06] <RIPABITCHX> relia: I did that and got some return, what should I be looking for
[07:06] <clutchmm> I am the only user (and a noob to boot) of my ubuntu install. All of the proper permissions are set for me to have root access, but when I try to access a file with the terminal e.g. gksudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf the file opens in the editor blank and saying "new file". If I open just the editor e.g. gksudo gedit and then open the file manually through the editor it works fine and I can edit what I need to. The real problem is that if I need to edit somet

[07:09] <shnastybiznastic> hey, I installed the KDE packages, but now I want to get rid of them, but I want to keep amarok, which I had installed before I installed full-blown KDE.  How can I do this?

[07:09] <Skiguy> hello everyone
[07:09] <mneptok> getoo: *what* did you install?
[07:09] <clutchmm> thanks:) that solves one problem. The other is that my xserver has had a similar crash on my desktop but doesn't default to text only mode. It just goes to a blank screen with a flashing "_"
[07:09] <getoo> mneptok: bittorrent-gui
[07:10] <mneptok> getoo: should be in the Internet menu
[07:10] <getoo> mneptok: is not there
[07:10] <T0uCH> cafuego_: T0uCH: You will need to add 'uid=1000,umask=002' in the fstab file.  WHERE IS IT?? IM A NEWBIE LOL
[07:10] <mneptok> getoo: and you opening it by opening a .torrent file
[07:10] <FunnyLookinHat> T0uCH, /etc/fstab
[07:10] <getoo> mneptok: i know how to use it .. but it looks like it wont install
[07:10] <mneptok> getoo: it may be hidden by default. Prefs->Main Menu
[07:10] <getoo> whereever it belongs
[07:10] <clutchmm> any ideas?
[07:11] <getoo> mneptok: let me try that
[07:11] <FunnyLookinHat> T0uCH, gksu "gedit /etc/fstab"
[07:11] <getoo> i tried to start it using terminal
[07:11] <getoo> tho
[07:11] <Skiguy> I'm having a bit of an issue with a replacement video card - x server seems to like to choose resolutions that my crappy video card can't handle. I can boot into recovery mode, but how do I edit the xorg.conf file when gedit won't load?
[07:11] <getoo> wont start since is not in bin
[07:11] <getoo> i mean /bin
[07:11] <oren_> crdlb: i did -r, than i typed exit in all 3 windows i had in the screen. is it enough?
[07:11] <Stevewabc_Laptop> ubuntu howto's are your friend
[07:11] <trey> ohhh new kernels
[07:11] <mneptok> getoo: with what command?
[07:12] <trey> maybe i should update more often
[07:12] <getoo> bittorrent
[07:12] <FunnyLookinHat> Skiguy, easy way to reconfigure X:   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:12] <clutchmm> my xserver has had a similar crash on my desktop but doesn't default to text only mode. It just goes to a blank screen with a flashing "_"
[07:12] <mneptok> getoo: bzzzzt.  "gnome-btdownload"
[07:12] <getoo> i even tried gnome-btdoanload
[07:12] <crdlb> oren_, well try screen -r again, if it says "There is no screen to be resumed." then you're good
[07:12] <getoo> that one starts
[07:12] <oren_> crdlb: ok
[07:12] <getoo> got it now
[07:12] <Skiguy> funny: thanks, I ran through that, but I'm not sure on the driver to choose
[07:12] <safer> **adjustments made -- ult ed updating properly** (it's possible)
[07:12] <getoo> i need to d/l .torrent and open it with gnome-btdoanload
[07:12] <oren_> crdlb:  great, 10x!
[07:12] <getoo> mneptok: thanx
[07:13] <mneptok> getoo: and personally, i'd "sudo apt-get install bittornado-gui"  ;)
[07:13] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Not getting my PM's? :\
[07:13] <Skiguy> the xorg log says it's a "matrox mga 2164w"
[07:13] <getoo> mneptok: tried that also
[07:13] <mneptok> BitTornado > BitTorrent
[07:13] <ripzaw> Relia: try messaging this nickname for RIPABITCHX
[07:13] <getoo> mneptok: how about gtk-gnutella
[07:13] <clutchmm> my xserver has had a similar crash on my desktop but doesn't default to text only mode. It just goes to a blank screen with a flashing _ anyone know what is wrong?
[07:13] <getoo> that one gives me an orror
[07:13] <mneptok> getoo: Edgy?
[07:13] <getoo> let me start it again
[07:13] <getoo> and pastebin it
[07:14] <relia> ripzaw: Less of a problem on my end, don't think he knows how to change from this channel and private messages in his client (bitchx).
[07:14] <mneptok> getoo: yeah, the Edgy GTK-Gnutella package needs an update
[07:14] <Skiguy> clutch: I get that when xserver just refuses to start entirely
[07:14] <relia> Oh, your name, bleh.
[07:14] <mneptok> getoo: blah blah ancinet version blah blah
[07:14] <mneptok> *ancient
[07:14] <getoo> mneptok: yeap .. tells me something about way to old and theres only .2 versions diff
[07:14] <getoo> mneptok: thats is
[07:14] <mneptok> getoo: known innue
[07:14] <mneptok> *issue
[07:14] <getoo> got it
[07:14] <MmmPancakes> g'night all
[07:15] <getoo> i tried to install it myself got an error about gcc
[07:15] <getoo> ld something
[07:15] <relia> ripzaw: Still no response. X(
[07:15] <ripzaw> relia: this is RIPABITCHX using the GAIM thing
[07:15] <clutchmm> I have it with a missing video driver fatal error
[07:15] <ripzaw> no response on my end either
[07:15] <getoo> mneptok: any programs that recognizes hardware in ubuntu
[07:16] <relia> ripzaw: Ah well, let's just do it in this channel.
[07:16] <getoo> and installs the drivers for it
[07:16] <RIPABITCHX> relia: ok sounds good
[07:16] <relia> RIPABITCHX: The problem doesn't appear to be that you don't have the library installed, just that the Loki installer is looking for it by the wrong filename.
[07:16] <Guest> Hello
[07:16] <T0uCH> FunnyLookinHat: T0uCH, gksu "gedit /etc/fstab" it says cannot open not a file....
[07:16] <aLeN> i have got a question
[07:17] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Go to /usr/lib in a terminal and run this: ls libgtk-1.2*
[07:17] <aLeN> how can i install gpl desktop to ubuntu ?
[07:17] <MasterOfDisaster> does anyone know how to change the default login manager?
[07:17] <RIPABITCHX> relia:ls: libgtk-1.2*: No such file or directory
[07:18] <stevarino> hey all, i am having big trouble with my soundcard
[07:18] <stevarino> currently: no sound
[07:18] <relia> RIPABITCHX: You did that after changing your working directory to /usr/lib? Really paculiar if that's right. :|
[07:18] <stevarino> how should i even begin to approach this
[07:19] <MasterOfDisaster> from gdm to say, entrance or xdm
[07:19] <T0uCH> FunnyLookinHat:  ?
[07:19] <Skiguy> can I edit menu.lst from recovery mode?
[07:19] <RIPABITCHX> reliad: yes I was in the right directory
[07:19] <tonyyarusso> Skiguy: yes
[07:19] <Skiguy> um, thanks. how?
[07:19] <getoo> k thanx guys
[07:19] <shawn34> is there a gdm theme creator?
[07:20] <getoo> << gaim
[07:20] <Skiguy> sudo gedit menu.lst doesn't seem to work
[07:20] <Skiguy> is there a different editor I should be using?
[07:20] <Stevewabc_Laptop> nano
[07:20] <tonyyarusso> Skiguy: nano
[07:21] <cellojoe> vim?
[07:21] <Skiguy> sudo nano menu.lst?
[07:21] <Inbilla> Hey all, can we run picasa in ubuntu yet? does it work in wine?
[07:21] <Stevewabc_Laptop> yes
[07:21] <Skiguy> cool. thanks
[07:21] <relia> cellojoe: vim is overkill for editing a RC file. :S
[07:21] <cafuego_> True, use emacs.
[07:22] <shawn34> Inbilla, don't need wine anymore
[07:22] <mneptok> Inbilla: use FSpot :)
[07:22] <cafuego_> Inbilla: Well, but f-spot.
[07:22] <cellojoe> relia: what would you use vim for instead?
[07:22] <shawn34> Inbilla, picasa eats um my mem
[07:22] <mneptok> if someone is asking about gedit it's not really fair to point them at vi*
[07:22] <Stevewabc_Laptop> relia, vary little
[07:22] <relia> cellojoe: Source files, I suppose. Only thing I use it for are XHTML docs and what few Python scripts I've written.
[07:22] <cafuego_> f-spot would eat lots of ram too, mono is nothing if not memory hungry
[07:23] <cellojoe> mneptok: true...
[07:23] <cellojoe> relia: oh
[07:23] <mneptok> "Hi, my bicycle seems broken." "No problem. Try this steam locomotive."
[07:23] <delmore1> do i need to sign up somewhere to test the feisty beta?
[07:24] <mneptok> delmore1: no
[07:24] <thyazide> ok im about to scream and throw things :(
[07:24] <cables> delmore1, nope, just download it.
[07:24] <stevarino> can someone please help? i can't get any of the alsa drivers to install :(
[07:24] <Inbilla> aha, brill i'll try those...
[07:24] <delmore1> i cant seem to find the download
[07:24] <cellojoe> mneptok: hahah
[07:24] <cables> !feisty | delmore1
[07:24] <ubotu> delmore1: 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)
[07:24] <delmore1> thank you
[07:24] <cellojoe> thyazide: whats up?
[07:25] <T0uCH> his there a way to modified the fstab files while running on boot cd??
[07:25] <cellojoe> thyazide: don't throw things that break
[07:25] <numan> funnylookinhat: i have ubuntu 7.04 beta is it same cd for xbuntu installtion or diff?
[07:25] <thyazide> i have the latest nvidia drivers installed, the nvidia-settings program reports that direct rendering and all the other bells and whistles are working, but cedega tells me direct rendering is not running and the system has no 3d support
[07:25] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Any progress?
[07:26] <cellojoe> thyazide: hm. i couldn't say. i'm still trying to get "fglrxinfo" to say ATI instead of Mesa
[07:26] <shawn34> thyaxide, feisty?
[07:26] <numan> thyazide: how you get installed with nvidia display card while i am not able to do that?
[07:26] <thyazide> 6.10
[07:27] <Inbilla> Thanks guys, another question though... I'm having trouble with my mouse on drop down menus, it seems like when the menu appears it no longer responds to the mouse, I have to use arrow keys to select items.. any ideas? it's an intermitant thing...
[07:27] <mneptok> numan: did you actually disable the onboard graphics in the BIOS?
[07:27] <cables> !nvidia | numan
[07:27] <ubotu> numan: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:27] <thyazide> i used envy to install the drivers
[07:27] <peepsalot> anyone now how to add a startup program under xfce?
[07:27] <mneptok> thyazide: bad idea.
[07:27] <RIPABITCHX> relia: I missed your last instruction
[07:27] <numan> mneptok: yes i slected agp instead of pci
[07:27] <thyazide> yea tell me about it
[07:27] <mneptok> thyazide: do NOT update your kernel when offered.
[07:27] <thyazide> tolate on that one
[07:27] <mneptok> via con dios
[07:27] <thyazide> before i tryed to use envy i attempted a manual install
[07:28] <thyazide> that produced the same results
[07:28] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Didn't give you one, just confused over what came of it. Did you change your working directory to /usr/lib before you did 'ls libgtk-1.2*'?
[07:28] <numan> mneptok: because in newer motherboards you dont have to disable it it will automatically disabled if other card is detected
[07:28] <thyazide> the system comes up, sees the card, splash screen runs, direct rendering = yes, but no dice on anything running in 3
[07:28] <RIPABITCHX> relia: yes I was in that directory and it couldn't find that file
[07:28] <thyazide> 3d
[07:29] <peepsalot> nevermind
[07:29] <mneptok> numan: you 100% sure about that? did you try disabling it?
[07:29] <clutchmm> is there a way to start ubuntu edgy in text mode without it trying to load the xserver?
[07:29] <aLeN> could someone tell me how i can install gpl desktop for ubuntu ?
[07:30] <mneptok> aLeN: GNOME, KDE, XFCE, what?
[07:30] <T0uCH> his there a way to modified the fstab files while running on boot cd??
[07:30] <numan> mnrptok: yes
[07:30] <relia> RIPABITCHX: What if you just do: ls libgtk*? Is there anything in there resembling libgtk-1.2.so.0?
[07:30] <aLeN> gnome
[07:30] <mneptok> aLeN: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:30] <cables> aLeN, Gnome is installed by default.
[07:30] <RIPABITCHX> relia: libgtk-x11-2.0.so
[07:30] <mneptok> numan: i'll bet yau haven't looked
[07:30] <clutchmm> is there a way to start ubuntu edgy in text mode without it trying to load the xserver?
[07:30] <cellojoe> what can i use for a better looking alt-tab dialog?
[07:31] <mneptok> cables: not if he installed off a server CD ;)
[07:31] <cellojoe> something a little more, OSX like
[07:31] <cables> mneptok, how'd you guess?
[07:31] <cables> cellojoe, Beryl has one.
[07:31] <cellojoe> cables: oh, cool
[07:31] <eternaljoy> is there any was I can alter an ext3 partition to NTFS or FAT32?
[07:31] <T0uCH> if I install ubuntu will i loose all my windows files??
[07:31] <relia> RIPABITCHX: That seems so off. Do 'sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2' just to make sure the lib is installed. lol
[07:31] <cellojoe> now to get 3d rendering on my mobility x1300
[07:31] <cables> T0uCH, not if you do it properly
[07:31] <mneptok> eternaljoy: why would you do that? ;)
[07:31] <T0uCH> how is it?
[07:32] <thyazide> im guessing i should blow this install away and start from scratch again...
[07:32] <cables> T0uCH, during the install, it should ask you whether you want to resize your Windows partition or clear the drive. Choose resize.
[07:32] <Aaron552> is there a way to get my wireless working properly? I have a Broadcom 4311.
[07:32] <cables> T0uCH, it'll say something like "resize IDE master"
[07:32] <T0uCH> cables can i talk to you in pv?
[07:32] <thyazide> this is what i get for attempting to upgrade to the latest nvidia drivers :(
[07:32] <eternaljoy> mneptok: pls dont ask why :)   just tell me pls
[07:32] <cables> T0uCH, sure
[07:32] <zcat[1] > T0uCH: but back up anything you want to keep too, just in case.. 99% of the time things go fine.. there's always the other 1%.
[07:32] <numan> mneptok: is ubuntu have netinst cd image like debian?
[07:32] <RIPABITCHX> relia: its getting the package now
[07:33] <Skiguy> hmmmmmm. okay. so, windows seems to enjoy this new video card, so it does work. not to force ubuntu to recognize it. If I delete xorg.conf completely, it will regenerate it, yes?
[07:33] <clutchmm> is there a way to start ubuntu edgy in text mode without it trying to load the xserver?
[07:33] <mneptok> thyazide: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic nvidia-glx && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:33] <peepsalot> is there some networking/remote desktop built into X?
[07:33] <foug> hi, i'm using windows currently and i'm using a router on my computer. I'm the admin/owner of it though but my dad's comp gets wireless internet from it. When I install ubuntu, will I have to go through something complicated to set it up? And how will I connect to the I.P i usually do in I.E to configure everything?
[07:33] <relia> Aaron552: You'll have to use ndiswrapper with bcmwl5.inf.
[07:33] <eternaljoy> mneptok:  is rthere a way?
[07:33] <mneptok> numan: yup. alternate
[07:33] <zcat[1] > clutchmm: rename the file /etc/rc2.d/S??-gdm to /etc/rc2.d/K??-gdm
[07:33] <maxagaz> hi
[07:33] <mneptok> eternaljoy: yes, you reformat it like in any other OS
[07:33] <relia> RIPABITCHX: I'd laugh it I weren't so tired. Try the installer after that. XD
[07:34] <Aaron552> relia: hah! tried that, it conects rarely if at all and drops out within 5 minutes, usually. :(
[07:34] <thyazide> mneptok: just ran that says everything is latest
[07:34] <Crazytom> foug, how is your computer connected to the router
[07:34] <cafuego_> Aaron552: ny luck with bcm43xx plus the firmware?
[07:34] <numan> mneptok: i tried this cd  alternate also but it is only text mode installation not on the net?
[07:35] <maxagaz> How to import a simple .txt list of email addresses (separated by a \n) into Evolution
[07:35] <foug> Crazytom: through my wall, main connections
[07:35] <eternaljoy> mneptok: can I reformat Ubuntu while its running itself?
[07:35] <Aaron552> relia: haven't tried that... looks too scary
[07:35] <mneptok> eternaljoy: no
[07:35] <Crazytom> foug, wireless or therenet
[07:35] <foug> not wireless
[07:35] <thyazide> mneptok: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[07:35] <Crazytom> mneptok, what chipset do you have
[07:35] <relia> relia: No scarrier than letting Tim Curry watch your kids, I'm sure.
[07:35] <foug> but i give wireless net to other comps in my house
[07:35] <Crazytom> foug then you should have no problems
[07:36] <Crazytom> foug, with your network anyway
[07:36] <numan> mneptok: i am going to install ubuntu 6.10 alternate cd image can you help me during installtion?
[07:36] <crdlb> thyazide, that's because you still had the repo drivers installed when you ran the manual installer
[07:36] <numan> mneptok: if i ask you for something?
[07:36] <foug> Crazytom: cool, how do i access to admin panel for it? since linux doesn't use I.E
[07:36] <eternaljoy> mneptok: so I format it from a liveCD or something?
[07:36] <Crazytom> foug, installing ubuntu will have nothing to do with your router
[07:36] <thyazide> crdlb: oy ;(
[07:36] <Crazytom> foug, just type in the address into firefox
[07:37] <foug> o ok, cool, thanks Crazytom
[07:37] <zcat[1] > Crazytom: You sure he's not using a router + a PCI wifi card and internet connection sharing?!!
[07:37] <Aaron552> relia: nope, no luck with bcm43xx, doesn't even see the wireless network anymore
[07:37] <numan> and also i am installing ubuntu on the same drive on which i have debian installed?
[07:37] <Crazytom> zcat[1] , he said he was sharing internet through a router
[07:37] <numan> will it ask me for partition or i have to do it on my own?
[07:37] <Crazytom> Aaron552, what chipset do you have?
[07:38] <mneptok> numan: if you want more than 5-10 minutes of help on IRC, please purchase a support contract. :)
[07:38] <zcat[1] > Crazytom: Yeah, he also said his computer was sharing wifi somehow.. kinda confusing what hea actually meant :)
[07:38] <relia> mneptok: That's so cruel. :P
[07:38] <berto_> hello, I have just installed the new ubuntu 704beta, and I want to set my screen to 1280x1024
[07:38] <clutchmm> how do I rename a file in text mode?
[07:38] <Crazytom> zcat[1] , I guess i assumed he meant a wireless router
[07:38] <berto_> but gnome only give me 1024x768
[07:38] <relia> clutchmm: mv oldname newname
[07:38] <crdlb> clutchmm, mv file newname
[07:38] <zcat[1] > Crazytom: I'm guessing he has a router with inbuilt wifi and after a reinstall DHCP will make everything work. Hope I'm right...
[07:39] <mneptok> relia: if you had bought a support contract for Ubuntu would you want me helping numan on IRC while you're on hold?
[07:39] <numan> mneptok: this means that great things never comes free of cost???  :)
[07:39] <berto_> I add "1280x768" int /etc/X11/xorg.cong and restart but there is not this resulotion into the gnome list
[07:39] <Crazytom> Aaron552, do lspci -v | grep Broadcom
[07:39] <mneptok> numan: if you're too lazy to invest the time educating yourself, then yes, there's a price to pay for that laziness. ;)
[07:39] <Professor> Hello
[07:40] <aLeN> how can i install 3B support ?
[07:40] <crdlb> thyazide, I can (try to) guide you through the process back to the repo drivers in #ubuntu-effects
[07:40] <Aaron552> Crazytom: Broadcom 4311 Unknown device
[07:40] <relia> mneptok: Why would I be here for support if I had a contract with Canonical? :o
[07:40] <RIPABITCHX> relia: ok I got quake installed.... um how do I start it?
[07:41] <Crazytom> Aaron552, bcm43xx probably wont work with your card you should use ndiswrapper
[07:41] <relia> RIPABITCHX: quake2 from the console is my guess.
[07:41] <peepsalot> is it possible to setup a "soft" kvm?  to use software to transfer the data over ethernet, and easily switch between two or more computers?
[07:41] <numan> mneptok: i am not lazy i have spent the whole day looking everywhere to get it solved but in no vain then i opted out for debian and installed debian instead of ubuntuwhile ubuntu is more user friendly for newbies
[07:41] <Aaron552> Craztom: ah. Well I was using it but it was very unreliable
[07:41] <relia> RIPABITCHX: Loki installer might have even added a .desktop file so it's listed in Gnome's menu under Games, can't say for sure on that.
[07:42] <Crazytom> Aaron552, http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/?go=devices
[07:42] <zcat[1] > peepsalot: vnc, perhaps?
[07:42] <mneptok> numan: how long have you been using Linux?
[07:42] <numan> mneptok: less than one week?
[07:42] <stevarino> can someone help - i'm trying to install alsa with an nvidia mcp51 HDA card
[07:42] <numan> mneptok: and i learned much in a few days about debian
[07:43] <RIPABITCHX> YESSSS I GOT QUAKE RUNNIN!  thanks relia!
[07:43] <mneptok> numan: OK, so not lazy. but certainly impatient. i've been using Unix for ~25 years and don't know it all.  ;)
[07:43] <Aaron552> Crazytom: ok. what am i looking for?
[07:44] <relia> mneptok: Do you get a pin or some kind of plague after twenty-five years? :|
[07:44] <zcat[1] > plague? yeah, probably...
[07:44] <eternaljoy> mneptok: whats the command I type to format ext3 to NTFS?
[07:44] <numan> mneptok: then you maybe a professional not like me a newbie for unix
[07:44] <Crazytom> Aaron552, that's where it says that bcm43xx is unstable for the 4311
[07:45] <Aaron552> Crazytom: I see. Well thanks for the help anyways.
[07:45] <Aaron552> Crazytom: I guess I'll have to wait till they get it working properly
[07:45] <Crazytom> mneptok, how much does a support contract cost or where is that info?
[07:46] <KurtKraut> On what package I should file a bug related with automount USB pendrives ?
[07:46] <mneptok> Crazytom: sec
[07:46] <relia> zcat[1] : However it's spelt. :|
[07:46] <relia> KurtKraut: dbus, gnome-volume-manager
[07:46] <mneptok> Crazytom: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/paid
[07:46] <Crazytom> thnx
[07:47] <bright_fame> CrazyTom: are you looking for this page? http://www.ubuntu.com/support/paid
[07:47] <KurtKraut> relia, thanks
[07:47] <bright_fame> :P
[07:47] <ferronica> By mistake i have deleted all photos from my home folder but F-spot photo manager showing me the photo where are these photo now??
[07:47] <KurtKraut> relia, actually, I'm having a issue in Feisty. The pendrive is always mounted with no writing permissions... any suggestions ?
[07:47] <mneptok> numan: right. and i'm a *total* newb with Windows. and if i had problems, my options are to educate myself or pay an expert.
[07:47] <CactusDeity> hi
[07:48] <relia> KurtKraut: Did you add an entry to /etc/fstab or letting the volume manager create a mount point and do all the work itself?
[07:48] <KurtKraut> relia, no, I'm just pluggin straightly as I used to do in Edgy, with no config needed.
[07:48] <numan> mneptok: 250 bucks for desktop support<while you can get the whole dektop at this cost
[07:49] <mneptok> numan: huh?
[07:49] <Crazytom> i would consider paying that if i thought my soundcard would work
[07:50] <tonyyarusso> Crazytom: Make a bounty in Launchpad?
[07:50] <relia> KurtKraut: Not to familiar with gnome-volume-manager to be honest, but you could always add a line to /etc/fstab and create a permanenet mount point under your conditions. :/
[07:50] <relia> Crazytom: What card was it, Nvidia onboard?
[07:51] <KurtKraut> relia, I'll try that approach but this situation means to me a bug, since in previous versions it was just a matter of plug stuff in and get it automounted with all permissions
[07:51] <ln1> can somebody tell me how to install a specific version of wine?
[07:51] <ln1> i want 0.9.27
[07:51] <relia> KurtKraut: Ah, then definetely file a bug. Something working one release cycle and not another never falls into the natural order of things. :F
[07:51] <ln1> can anybody tell me how to install a specific version of wine?  i have 0.9.3x in my repository and i want 0.9.27
[07:52] <ln1> what is the command?
[07:52] <ln1> i tried sudo apt-get install wine-0.9.27
[07:52] <ln1> but it said it couldnt find the package
[07:52] <ln1> what am i doing wrong?
[07:52] <hendaus> somebody help please!
[07:52] <Tube|> ln1: I would install it manually
[07:53] <ln1> ok like dl it from the website?
[07:53] <relia> The version number isn't part of the package name, ln1, all I know. Been curious about it myself. Could grab the deb and manually install with 'deb -i *.deb'.
[07:53] <IdleOne> !someone | hendaus
[07:53] <ubotu> hendaus: 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?
[07:53] <relia> ln1: What repo is the package on?
[07:53] <aLeN> hello guys
[07:53] <aLeN> how can i install 3b support for ubuntu ?
[07:53] <ln1> yeah i gotcha guys.  i just wanted to know if there was a specific way to use a command for it
[07:53] <Tube|> ln1: packages.ubuntu.fi
[07:53] <ln1> thanks for the help
[07:53] <ln1> ok

[07:54] <joe_> like doom3
[07:54] <relia> Wonder if there is a true answer to his question, wondered about that myself in the paste. How to lock a certain version, that is.
[07:54] <ln1> woooow you guys rock
[07:54] <ln1> thanks a bunch!
[07:54] <ln1>  :D
[07:54] <aLeN> how can i install 3b support for ubuntu ?
[07:54] <Tube|> joe_: install emulator and buy a game
[07:54] <joe_> ok
[07:54] <joe_> no
[07:54] <joe_> i dont want to pay
[07:55] <stevarino> i'm installing alsa, this is from the instructions: "Run 'modprobe snd-xxxx' where xxxx is the name of your card." where do i get "the name of my card"? from lspci or lspci -n?
[07:55] <IdleOne> aLeN, what is 3b?
[07:55] <corevette_> joe_ isohunt.com
[07:55] <joe_> tha free
[07:55] <corevette_> yes joe_
[07:55] <aLeN> i mean direct rendering
[07:55] <joe_> or on piratebay

[07:55] <aLeN> direct rendering: No
[07:55] <aLeN> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[07:55] <IdleOne> aLeN, what type of graphics card do you have?
[07:56] <PWill> Ugh. Beryl is using 90% CPU of my 2.8GHz Dual Core
[07:56] <aLeN> what do you mean with what type ?
[07:56] <relia> PWill: Onboard video by chance?
[07:56] <aLeN> i am using winfast 6600
[07:56] <IdleOne> aLeN, manufacturer?
[07:56] <aLeN> winfast - leadtek
[07:56] <joe_> ok a torrent
[07:56] <PWill> relia: no, I have a 256MB NVidia GeForce 7100
[07:56] <mneptok> corevette_: please do not help people commit IP theft
[07:56] <fotoflo> question: if something will compile under edgy will it compile under 6.0.6 too?
[07:57] <mneptok> joe_: your questions are not apprpriate for this channel.
[07:57] <hendaus> can anyone tell me if there is an msn messenger with audio and webcam?
[07:57] <joe_> MMmm
[07:57] <joe_> why
[07:57] <relia> PWill: All the more sour in that case. :E
[07:57] <corevette_> mneptok as long as they encrypt their downloads
[07:57] <relia> hendaus: amsn, Kopete
[07:57] <ferronica> By mistake i have deleted photos but F-photo manager showing me the photo

[07:58] <mneptok> joe_: thank you.

[07:59] <rufio242> anyone know how to set up a wireless usb adapter for 6.06
[07:59] <decomas> decomas_: yo
[07:59] <IdleOne> hehe ty mneptok
[07:59] <decomas_> yo fletch
[07:59] <mneptok> i tried te be nice about it ....
[07:59] <Gabz> rufio242:  i depends on the usb wireless adapter
[08:00] <IdleOne> some people will just never learn
[08:00] <relia> hendaus: That's peculiar, assumed it would with webcam support. 's shame, hopefully Gaim seems support since they'll be updating the .NET Messenger protocol to MSN11 over the summer.
[08:00] <bef> mneptok: could have suggested he download Enemy Territory ;)
[08:00] <cables> IdleOne, nice job calling the ops when mneptok was already here :)
[08:00] <ferronica> bright_fame: i removed it shift + del
[08:00] <mneptok> GAIM is dead. long live Pidgin.
[08:00] <Gabz> rufio242:  what when do you have
[08:00] <mneptok> bef: or Savage
[08:01] <IdleOne> cables, didnt realise mneptok is an op but it is also 2 am here so :P
[08:01] <bef> mneptok: or Terminal/Konsole ;)
[08:01] <cables> lol
[08:01] <rufio242> i have a belkin wireless usb network adapter
[08:01] <hendaus> mneptok,  so there is no messenger with voice chat?
[08:01] <ferronica> bright_fame: but photo manager showing it, when i double click on it show me ? mark
[08:01] <mneptok> bef: pull that Nethack needle outta your arm
[08:01] <hendaus> relia,  thanx
[08:01] <bef> mneptok: lol
[08:01] <IdleOne> hendaus, search synaptic
[08:01] <bright_fame> ferronica: fspot may have made temporary files somewhere, lie under /tmp or ~/.fspot
[08:01] <rufio242> the thing is, i dont have the driver disk, and i downloaded the drivers from the belkin site, but they only have them in .exe format
[08:01] <relia> mneptok: Gimmie a break, it's barely been a day. Can't be expected to adjust to the name. You have any idea how long it took for me to remember Mandriva rather than Mandrake? :\
[08:02] <mneptok> hendaus: i use one called "the telephone" that works well, so i stopped caring. :)
[08:02] <hendaus> mneptok,  cool :)
[08:02] <relia> I still refer to it as Mandrake. lol
[08:02] <bright_fame>  ferronica: or it may only have thumbnails of the photos saved (i.e. reduced size version)
[08:02] <mneptok> relia: i've always called it "RedHat Crippled Edition"
[08:02] <Gabz> rufio242: there are two ways of doing things one is ndiswapper and you use the windows driver and if your lucky there is a linux driver
[08:02] <hendaus> IdleOne,  synaptic is for msn messenger with voice chat and webcam?
[08:03] <relia> mneptok: Such politics make me confuse this channel for #debian. :P
[08:03] <bef> hendaus: aMSN has voice chat and webcam.
[08:03] <IdleOne> hendaus, are you using Ubuntu? if so how long?
[08:03] <ferronica> bright_fame: Could not open location 'file:///home/tushar/.fspot'
[08:03] <bef> hendaus: search for aMSN in Synaptic (this is a package manager)
[08:03] <hendaus> IdleOne,  kubuntu
[08:03] <rufio242> ok, how do i got about doing that then
[08:03] <ferronica> bright_fame: So you mean photos gone. :(
[08:03] <mneptok> relia: except we update the topic more often than every geologic era  ;)
[08:03] <hendaus> bef,  where :(
[08:03] <rufio242> the site i found says the guy got it working, i just am screwed cause i cant find the driver disk
[08:03] <bef> !Synaptic > hendaus
[08:03] <IdleOne> hendaus, search in Adept for amsn and install
[08:03] <relia> lol, too true.
[08:04] <KurtKraut> relia, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/104672
[08:04] <bef> hendaus: you can run apt-cache search aMSN
[08:04] <hendaus> bef, i have amsn installed
[08:04] <mneptok>  /topic OOO! welcome to the Pleistocene!
[08:04] <Gabz> rufio242:  do you have the link to the site you have found. and if you write gabz in your comments it make it easier for me
[08:04] <bright_fame> ferronica: there may be a way to recover them, I'm looking at some options now...
[08:04] <bef> hendaus: then you can use webcam ;)
[08:04] <bef> hendaus: first must have your webcam installed/configured
[08:04] <bright_fame> ferronica: i just googled for "linux undelete"
[08:04] <hendaus> bef, no it doesnor work :(( and no voice chat
[08:04] <ferronica> bright_fame: thanx god
[08:04] <rufio242> gabz sorry, yeah. http://czarism.com/easy-peasy-wireless-w-ubuntu-debian-linux

[08:05] <relia> Ah well, time for bed, only to wake up in the morning to repair this sad, broken Debian Sid installer. XD
[08:05] <bef> hendaus: amsn does have video/webcam, lol
[08:05] <hendaus> bef,  i have skype also
[08:06] <rufio242> Crazytom no...i dont know what a chipset is....

[08:08] <gr3yfox> well i am completely new and installed ubuntu 6.06 amd64 and would like to install the nvidia drivers
[08:08] <ferronica> bright_fame: found something??
[08:09] <bright_fame> ferronica: if those photos are really important to you, it's best to stop using that disk to prevent new data being written their :s
[08:09] <hendaus> bef,  no
[08:09] <bef> hendaus: there is a french plugin called Easycam, helps you to install webcam drivers.
[08:09] <gr3yfox> i also want 6.10 edgy but the install disk i burned never went pass the loading screen so i figured i would maybe just upgrade
[08:09] <IdleOne> GekiYellow, core. files are files created when an application has a fatal error and can be used to diagnose the problem
[08:09] <gr3yfox> but i want to learn about the drivers before i move on to that
[08:09] <hendaus> bef, maybe i installed it wait
[08:09] <ferronica> bright_fame: i am using this disk from 24 hour
[08:10] <GekiYellow> IdleOne, can I just delete it?

[08:11] <Gabz> rufio242: i can't work out what that is so no..
[08:11] <ferronica> bright_fame: so no way :(
[08:11] <bef> hendaus: i believe so, yes. I don't use aMSN, I use Kopete.. and I dont do webcam chat lol
[08:11] <Gabz> gr3yfox: you can update to edgy by changing the sources.lst file
[08:11] <arabuntu> bef don't like. I saw you with that ladyboy website
[08:12] <arabuntu> s/like/lie
[08:12] <gr3yfox> i am currently in windows, would it be easier to install IRC on Ubuntu 6.06 and rejoin channel?
[08:12] <hendaus> bef, and does kopete has voice chat?
[08:12] <arabuntu> gr3yfox yes
[08:12] <Gabz> gr3yfox: apt-get install xchat
[08:12] <arabuntu> gr3yfox apt-get install xchat
[08:12] <gr3yfox> will do, be back soon

[08:16] <IdleOne> hendaus, just isnt wise to use non-ubuntu repos unless you know what you are doing and ready to fix things yourself
[08:16] <bright_fame> does anyone know of a deleted file recovery tool for ferronica?
[08:16] <rufio242> gabz yeah, im still trying to figure this out
[08:16] <bright_fame> seems recover only supports ext2
[08:16] <Gabz> rufio242: we'll start from the begining.
[08:17] <hendaus> IdleOne,  i have intel corporation tc76, and it doesnot work on amsn, so i need to fix it
[08:17] <whiskyhotel> idleone, it has brought up a blue window with several options

[08:18] <bef> hendaus: /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:18] <bef> hendaus: deb http://blognux.free.fr/debian unstable main
[08:19] <ferronica> bright_fame: yes .jpeg
[08:19] <numan> mneptok: u there?
[08:19] <Gabz> rufio242: ok well i we'll asume it doesn't work nativiely and we need to use ndiswrapper

[08:19] <gerx24> alguien qeue hable aregentino?
[08:19] <gerx24> alguien qeue hable aregentino?
[08:19] <ferronica> bright_fame: where it is??

[08:20] <hendaus> bef,  what is the command to type on konsole coz i have kde
[08:20] <Gabz> rufio242: ok do you have a windows box around
[08:20] <mneptok> numan: kinda
[08:20] <amicrawler> does any body know
[08:21] <rufio242> thats what im trying to install ubuntu over, but i can quit ubuntu and go back after i find it
[08:21] <rufio242> gabz thats what im trying to install ubuntu over, but i can quit ubuntu and go back after i find it
[08:21] <mneptok> numan: disable the onboard video in the BIOS
[08:21] <rufio242> gabz im using my macbook to search the net right now
[08:21] <whiskyhotel> idleone, i went through the set up and entered all infomation include horiz and vert sync rates but when i go to the screen resolution setting i still dont see any new options, do i have to restart before they take effect?
[08:22] <bright_fame> ferronica: can be installed from synaptic
[08:22] <IdleOne> whiskyhotel, not usualy no
[08:22] <ferronica> bright_fame: okay installed
[08:22] <ferronica> bright_fame: how to run it
[08:22] <OnlyDani> hi, a newbie here - should I stay here for some basic help or can one guide me to appropriate channle /?  Thanks !!!
[08:23] <whiskyhotel> idleone, maybe i didn't use the right depth it gave me the option of 16 and 24 i selected 16, should i try 24?
[08:23] <klock> whiskyhotel: linux systems can be fully updated without a restart, even the kernel
[08:23] <Gabz> rufio242: if you only have an exe then when you install the windows driver it will unzip the inf and put it somewhere so search you windows box for "rt2500usb.inf" and if you use windows sreach don't forget to include system files
[08:23] <bright_fame> ferronica: never used it before: might have to 'unmount' the file system before using it, but this is difficult
[08:23] <paul201> hey cna i get some help
[08:23] <IdleOne> whiskyhotel, cant hurt now can it

[08:30] <klock> :)
[08:30] <bright_fame> ferronica: can you paste the output of the mount command to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org ?
[08:30] <ferronica> bright_fame: ok
[08:32] <Skiguy> I seem to have failed to load X server. Anyone know what "AddCreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0" means in my xorg.0.log?
[08:32] <numan> mneptok: so cant install it on my box
[08:32] <ferronica> bright_fame: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14673/
[08:33] <numan> maybe i cant disable onboard vga ?
[08:33] <eternaljoy> is it possible to delete an ext3 partition and a 1gig swap file and join them 2 to become 1 NTFS partition?
[08:34] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, yes
[08:34] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, just use gparted
[08:34] <Gabz> eternaljoy: you will loose all data on the ext3 partition and linux needs a swap file to work
[08:35] <ferronica> bright_fame: Have you got the link??????
[08:35] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, its a graphical interface to parted
[08:35] <numan> i am looking for kind help for installing ubuntu on dual vga platform
[08:35] <eternaljoy> Gabz: thats OK. want to totaly remove the ext3 and swap 1gig partition and make them both into 1 NTFS. Possible?
[08:35] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, best way to do this would be to delete both partitions and create a new empty one then format it
[08:35] <bright_fame> ferronica: yep
[08:35] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: using gparted?
[08:35] <bright_fame> ferronica: are your other HDDs in the computer and useable? or not?
[08:35] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, yes, from a live CD if they are the boot partitions
[08:35] <rufio242> gabz will this work? http://etudiants.insia.org/~jbobbio/ural-linux/
[08:35] <Gabz> eternaljoy:  see pppoe_dude  posts
[08:35] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: will that leave the other 2 NTFS paritions alone and in tact?
[08:36] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: 4 partitions in total
[08:36] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, if you know your partitions numbers and double check then ya
[08:36] <pppoe_dude> (if they are in serial, that is
[08:36] <pppoe_dude> if they are farther apart or separated by another partition, then you may need to make two of them, or resize the others
[08:36] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: so first, delete ext3 and swap file partitions!  Then gparted will say theres 1 partiton to format?
[08:37] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, then it will tell you there is unallocated space
[08:37] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, then you can create a new partition in that space
[08:37] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: and then chose to format all of that into NTFS?
[08:37] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: does gparted syupport NTFS?
[08:37] <Gabz> rufio242: i can't comment on if it would work .... but i don't suggest trying it if your not experianced
[08:37] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, gparted only creates partitions
[08:38] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: how can I make it NTFS then?
[08:38] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, it may have a front end to mkfs, but mkfs exists to format partitions
[08:38] <rufio242> gabz alright, its just taking forever to find this stupid thing
[08:38] <pppoe_dude> you will need to format the new partition into NTFS,
[08:38] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: when it partitions, doesnt it ask what format?
[08:38] <paul201> i need help how do i partion my hard drive?
[08:38] <eternaljoy> pppoe_dude: format from where?
[08:38] <Gabz> rufio242: it's likely to be in the windows system folder
[08:38] <paul201> from the ubunt live cd
[08:39] <ferronica> bright_fame: yes windows HDD
[08:39] <eternaljoy> paul201: use the gparted liveCD instead
[08:39] <rufio242> gabz i looked and i dont see it
[08:39] <pppoe_dude> eternaljoy, it might ask, but not sure if ntfs is one of the options
[08:39] <ferronica> bright_fame: both are sata.
[08:39] <paul201>  okay
[08:39] <paul201> thx
[08:39] <Gabz> rufio242: you've disabled the hid windows system files ?
[08:39] <Crazytom> does ANYONE have an ubuntu install working on sata drives?
[08:39] <bright_fame> ferronica: i think it's worth a try to use recoverjpeg, but you cannot just run it from inside ubuntu - you cannot recover from the ubuntu partition while you are running ubuntu
[08:40] <Gabz> rufio242: sorry the windows\ inf folder
[08:40] <rufio242> gabz yeah, and im looking in the folder itself
[08:40] <ferronica> bright_fame: Then?
[08:41] <rufio242> gabz i still cant find it
[08:41] <bright_fame> ferronica: do you have any live cd with linux on it?
[08:41] <Gabz> rufio242: have you installed the wireless card in windows and it works ?
[08:41] <rufio242> gabz yeah, i dont get why i cant find it
[08:41] <ferronica> bright_fame: i have live CD of ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake
[08:42] <ferronica> bright_fame: right now i am running ubuntu 6.10
[08:42] <Gabz> rufio242: what's the product number starting with the F
[08:43] <bright_fame> ferronica: do you have any friend who knows lots about linux and could come over - this will be very hard for me to explain over IRC :/
[08:43] <ferronica> bright_fame: Oh
[08:43] <rufio242> gabz f5D7050
[08:43] <ferronica> bright_fame: All are Xp users :(
[08:43] <bright_fame> ferronica: mmm :(
[08:44] <Crazytom> Gabz, he probably just has the bcm43xx module blacklisted
[08:44] <bright_fame> ferronica: paste the output of 'dmseg | grep hd' to pastebin
[08:44] <bright_fame> ooops
[08:44] <bright_fame> ferronica: 'dmseg | grep hd'
[08:45] <bright_fame> dmesg
[08:45] <bright_fame> !
[08:45] <Gabz> Crazytom:  i don't know what you mean if you feel you can help him by all means...
[08:45] <bright_fame> not dmseg
[08:46] <ferronica> bright_fame: then
[08:46] <Crazytom> Gabz, his wireless card isn't showing up. is that the problem your working on?
[08:47] <Gabz> Crazytom: well he says it's in device manager which means it shows up we are actullay trying to find a inf file so we can use ndiswrapper
[08:47] <rufio242> crazytom my card shows up in the device manager
[08:47] <bushblows> what FS does ubuntu server 6.06 install by default?
[08:47] <OnlyDani> +i
[08:47] <clearzen>  bushblows: ext3
[08:47] <ferronica> bright_fame: like this --->'dmseg | grep hd'
[08:47] <Gabz> rufio242: have you check the belkin folder in programfiles
[08:47] <bushblows> hrm, weird
[08:48] <bright_fame> ferronica: sorry, it should be dmesg not dmseg
[08:48] <clearzen>  bushblows: what problem are you having?
[08:48] <bright_fame> dmesg | grep hd
[08:48] <bushblows> well I am trying to mount an HD with an old install of ubuntu server 6.06 in debian server
[08:48] <bef> hendaus: replace apt with yum ;)
[08:48] <vik_> Is it possible to restart X while maintaining the state of all running applications? Like through VNC, but local?
[08:49] <bushblows> but I try mount -t ext2/3 etc and it says that that file system cant be found on that HD
[08:49] <clearzen>  bushblows: Does the drive you are trying to mount have linux on it?
[08:49] <rufio242> gabz yeah, still not there, i dont see any inf file in there
[08:49] <bushblows> yes right now
[08:49] <ferronica> bright_fame: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14674/
[08:49] <clearzen>  bushblows: I guess it could be rieserfs
[08:49] <clearzen>  bushblows: or vfat....but that would be wierd
[08:50] <bushblows> clearzen mount said rieserfs unknown filesystem for some reason
[08:50] <clearzen>  bushblows: what does fdisk -l tell you?
[08:50] <bushblows> nothing
[08:51] <jojoman02> where can i put a script to make it run as root during startup?
[08:51] <clearzen> how many partitions is on it. Are you trying to mount the right one?
[08:51] <Crazytom> Gabz, rufio242 check out the list http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/List
[08:51] <SuperQ> vik_: not that I'm aware of :(
[08:52] <gr3yfox> im back, sorry it took so long, i tried the command but it didnt work, any alternate ways to install IRC on Ubuntu?
[08:52] <SuperQ> vik_: as you said, you can run Xvnc, and keep a separate session
[08:52] <bright_fame> ferronica: you have 3 HDD, but only one seems to be mounted, the other two are only available under windows?
[08:52] <SuperQ> vik_: but not for normal X logins
[08:52] <vik_> SuperQ: thanks.
[08:52] <ferronica> bright_fame: Yes
[08:52] <ferronica> bright_fame: they are windows
[08:52] <SuperQ> vik_: oh.. wait.. there is NX
[08:52] <SuperQ> vik_: I've not used it
[08:53] <SuperQ> vik_: http://freenx.berlios.de/
[08:53] <bright_fame> ferronica: the problem is we need another HDD to save some data to before we can try to recover anything :/
[08:53] <Crazytom> so to recap noone here has a working install on a sata drive?
[08:53] <Gabz> Crazytom:  that list is nice but hasn't told me any new informaion
[08:53] <ferronica> bright_fame: oh
[08:54] <OnlyDani> Question: How do I install Ubuntu ? using live cd for 6.10 - when I boot with it, I get to option screen and then when installing it stops in the middle?
[08:54] <bushblows> clearzen, ya it is the right one
[08:54] <vik_> jojoman02: depends on how 'correct' you want to be
[08:54] <ferronica> bright_fame: but why photo manager showing me the photos
[08:54] <bright_fame> ferronica: are they full sized? or reduced size?
[08:54] <bushblows> fdisk shows 3 partitions, linux, extended, linux swap
[08:54] <ferronica> bright_fame: small thumnail size
[08:54] <bright_fame> ferronica: and you cannot view full size ones?
[08:54] <bushblows> the other 2 HDs in the computer are /dev/hdb1 and /dev/hdc1
[08:55] <ferronica> bright_fame: No
[08:55] <bushblows> so I am not mistaken on drives
[08:55] <ferronica> bright_fame: only small size
[08:55] <Gabz> rufio242:  hows the search going ?
[08:55] <clearzen> bushblows: what is the drive name /dev/hd*?
[08:55] <bushblows> /dev/hdb
[08:55] <rufio242> gabz the exact opposite i would like it to go
[08:56] <bright_fame> ferronica: Fspot created those smaller versions when it indexed your photos
[08:56] <clearzen> bushblows: try sudo fdisk /dev/hdb then l to list the partition tables. The type will be on the end
[08:56] <ferronica> bright_fame: you are right
[08:56] <gr3yfox> I have 2 burned copies of Ubuntu, both amd64 bit editions, one 6.06 (works fine) and 6.10 which does not get past the load screen
[08:56] <Gabz> rufio242: you have found other inf files but just not the one for this wireless card ?
[08:56] <ferronica> bright_fame: but original photo deleted right
[08:56] <gr3yfox> I installed 6.06 and want to upgrade to 6.10, but first would like to install IRC on 6.06
[08:57] <ferronica> bright_fame: They are just IDEX
[08:57] <ferronica> bright_fame: They are just INDEX
[08:57] <bushblows> it says 83   linux, mount dosnt recognize linux as a proper FS
[08:57] <rufio242> gabz well i found that inf folder but it didnt have the right one
[08:57] <foutrelis> :)
[08:57] <clearzen> bushblows: it seems to be damaged
[08:57] <bright_fame> ferronica: as far as i know yep, unless it created a backup (i never used Fspot myself)
[08:57] <bushblows> thats what I dont get
[08:57] <ferronica> ok
[08:57] <bushblows> its not though, it works, i booted to it before putting it in here to make sure
[08:57] <clearzen> bushblows: you can repair it more than likely
[08:57] <ferronica> bright_fame: have print photo
[08:58] <bushblows> I hope so, /me dosnt feel like loosing 110gb data
[08:58] <ferronica> bright_fame: i am trying to print photo
[08:58] <clearzen> bushblows: you could use tune2fs to run a check on it
[08:58] <ferronica> bright_fame: they should be 4 x 6 Size
[08:58] <vik_> jojoman02: I would probably create a 'wrapper' script to start (and stop if necessary) the process in /etc/init.d (use /etc/init.d/skeleton as a template to create this script), then link to that script from /etc/rcX.d where X is the desired runlevel you want the script to start at.
[08:58] <eexpress> hi, i want change the grub' default "esc" key, which is defined to display boot menu.
[08:59] <gr3yfox> Any PMs would be appreciated if anyone has seen my questions/statements.
[08:59] <bushblows> clearzen, I will play with it more, thanks, I just dont get how it is not ext2/3
[08:59] <eexpress> hi, i want change the grub' default "esc" key, which is defined to display boot menu. for i always use hidemenu option.
[08:59] <bright_fame> ferronica: do you have any flash drive/external hard drives?
[08:59] <bright_fame> that plug into usb?
[08:59] <ferronica> bright_fame: nope
[08:59] <vik_> jojoman02: but that might be overkill
[09:00] <clearzen> bushblows: I think that it just has a bad block or 2 that is stopping you from mounting it properly
[09:00] <Flannel> eexpress: why not just remove hidemenu, so you don't need an escape key
[09:00] <ferronica> bright_fame: what you use to transfer photo  using digital camera?
[09:00] <bushblows> and tune2fs should fix that
[09:00] <eexpress> Flannel: just i like hidemenu. and my ESC key is bad now..
[09:01] <bright_fame> ferronica:i just plug the camera in, can copy the files on there into a folder using nautilus
[09:01] <doolph> hey
[09:01] <Antioch> How can I change the GTK theme with Beryl?
[09:01] <doolph> anyone got Starcraft/broodwar working on edgy?
[09:01] <Gabz> rufio242:  reinstall the drivers then search the system for *.inf and then order the files by date modified.. besides that i don't have this card so there is a limit to how much i can help you..
[09:01] <ferronica> bright_fame: which application you use to Print photos
[09:02] <bright_fame> ferronica: I don't print them out, just view them on screen
[09:02] <ferronica> bright_fame: lol
[09:02] <bright_fame> :D
[09:02] <zcat[1] > when's feisty out?
[09:02] <Crazytom> zcat[1] , 19th
[09:02] <rufio242> gabz thats a million for trying to help me this whole time though
[09:02] <zcat[1] > ahh.. cool
[09:03] <zcat[1] > running the beta now...
[09:03] <Flannel> eexpress: I believe youd have to recompile grub to do that.  It's not configurable to my knowledge
[09:03] <gr3yfox> Question: how do i install IRC on Ubuntu 6.06, i did the "sudo apt-get install xchat" as someone said before, nothing happened.
[09:03] <zcat[1] > It's pretty cool how it tells you what you need whenever something's missing
[09:03] <eexpress> Flannel: oooo. compile grub... terrible..
[09:03] <ferronica> bright_fame: which version of ubuntu you have
[09:03] <Chili> Has anyone been able to get a SoundBlaster Live! sound card to work with xubuntu?
[09:03] <SuperQ> gr3yfox: what is "nothing"
[09:03] <ferronica> bright_fame:  ubuntu 6.10 or 6.06
[09:03] <bright_fame> ferronica: 6.10 edgy
[09:03] <Gabz> rufio242: um http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Belkin_F5D7050 look at that i might of being sending you on a hunt for the wrong inf file sorry
[09:04] <ferronica> bright_fame: why   ubuntu 6.10 why not 6.06
[09:04] <Flannel> eexpress: shrug.  If you're comfortable compiling, why did you need to ask here about it?
[09:04] <gr3yfox> nothing = it said something, but nothing happened, couldnt find it or something around that genre
[09:04] <ferronica> bright_fame: will you plz explain me
[09:04] <doolph> anyone got Starcraft working on ubuntu?
[09:04] <eexpress> Flannel: i thought perhaps some easy way to define it.
[09:04] <SuperQ> gr3yfox: then that's not "nothing"
[09:04] <bright_fame> ferronica: it's just the newest stable release
[09:04] <gr3yfox> sorry, it said about like 3 things but didnt write it down, im switching back and forth through xp and 6.06
[09:05] <SuperQ> gr3yfox: ahh
[09:05] <gr3yfox> sorry, just really new at this, ummm i can go back dry it again
[09:05] <SuperQ> gr3yfox: xchat is i nthe "universe" package set
[09:05] <bright_fame> ferronica: 6.06 has long term support available but i don't need that
[09:05] <gr3yfox> and tell you exactly what it said
[09:05] <ferronica> bright_fame: why ?
[09:05] <gr3yfox> how do i access it?
[09:05] <rufio242> gabz so i need the rt73.sys file?
[09:05] <ferronica> bright_fame: why i heared that 6.06 is more stable then 6.10
[09:06] <SuperQ> gr3yfox: one sec
[09:06] <Gabz> rufio242:  step 1 says you need the rt73.inf and rt73.sys  yeah
[09:06] <gr3yfox> SuperQ: np, PM me if you would like as well
[09:06] <Professor> Hello everyone
[09:06] <bright_fame> ferronica: sometimes this happens - one release will happen to have more bugs in than another
[09:06] <Gabz> rufio242: like well that seem to indicate you do ... it also depends on what version of the card you have they release a different one in austrlian to the US
[09:06] <SuperQ> gr3yfox: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#head-5bbef89639d9a7d93fe38f6356dc17847d373096
[09:07] <gr3yfox> SuperQ: thank you i will check it out, if i have questions i will ask
[09:07] <Chili> Has anyone had any luck in getting a SoundBlaster Live card working with xubuntu?
[09:07] <bright_fame> ferronica: they delayed releasing 6.06 to make it more stable i think - could be why
[09:07] <anon_1234> how do i uninstall a program under wine?
[09:07] <clearzen> bushblows: Still There, if you are try this: ext3.fsck --check --fix-fixable /dev/hdb1
[09:07] <rufio242> gabz i copied the files to my usb stick, im gonna boot back into ubuntu now
[09:07] <ferronica> bright_fame: you better to use latest version available
[09:08] <corevette> anon_1234 Applications>System Tools>Wine Software Uninstaller .... or just delete the program folder
[09:08] <Gabz> rufio242: yay progress did you get both files ?
[09:08] <ferronica> bright_fame: you mean better to use latest version available
[09:08] <rufio242> gabz yeah, i copied anything with that started with rt just in case
[09:08] <ferronica> bright_fame: Is there any way to clean HDD
[09:09] <bushblows> clearzen, I guess I dont have that program
[09:09] <bright_fame> ferronica: you mean remove all the files? or something else?
[09:09] <ferronica> bright_fame: old removed application folders or files ?
[09:09] <anon_1234> corevette: there is no "Applications>system tools>wine software uninstaller
[09:09] <anon_1234> "
[09:09] <corevette> anon_1234 do you have a wine menu under applications?
[09:10] <anon_1234> yes
[09:10] <clearzen> bushblows: I'll find one that you do have
[09:10] <anon_1234> corevette: yes
[09:10] <corevette> anything in there labeled some sort of uninstaller anon_1234?
[09:10] <bright_fame> ferronica: do you need to keep both windows HDDs?
[09:10] <bushblows> ok thanks
[09:10] <PORDO> i have set /etc/resolv.conf several times, but it keeps being overwritten somehow.  anyone?
[09:10] <anon_1234> corevette: no
[09:10] <ferronica> bright_fame: bcoz when i select view hidden folders in home folder there are so many uninstalled application directory .???? , .????
[09:11] <ferronica> bright_fame: in only one HDD Xp other i use to save data only
[09:11] <corevette> if you restart x you might see it anon_1234 ... other than that, i would just delete the program folder by hand ( ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/programfolder )
[09:11] <ferronica> bright_fame: 80 Gb and 200Gb
[09:12] <ferronica> bright_fame: in 80 Gb WinXp Pro.
[09:12] <anon_1234> corevette: ok, i'll try. thanks
[09:12] <rufio242> gabz ok, im booted up
[09:12] <ferronica> bright_fame: in 200 Gb  for DATA
[09:12] <clearzen>  bushblows: e2fsck -C0 -p -f -v /dev/hdb1
[09:12] <ferronica> bright_fame: and in 40Gb PATA Ubuntu 6.10 thats it :)
[09:13] <Gabz> rufio242: 6.06 , 6.10 or 7.04 ?
[09:13] <rufio242> the disk i have is 6.06
[09:13] <rufio242> gabz 6.06
[09:13] <Gabz> rufio242: so you have 6.06 installed ?
[09:13] <clearzen> bushblows: if the first command finds bad blocks run this e2fsck -c -c -v /dev/hdb1
[09:13] <crazy_penguin> 'morning all! :)
[09:13] <clearzen> bushblows: peace
[09:14] <bushblows> ya bad magic number in super-block
[09:14] <bright_fame> ferronica: is there 40GB free on 200 GB drive?
[09:14] <corevette> well crazy_penguin its 12 here pst....so good evening from california
[09:14] <rufio242> gabz i have the live CD for now, but i wanted to make sure i could get the adapter to work
[09:14] <ferronica> bright_fame: in 200 Gb i think 80 Gb used
[09:14] <rufio242> gabz but im gonna install once i get it working right
[09:14] <ferronica> bright_fame: why you wanna to use my HDD ;)
[09:15] <Gabz> rufio242: unfortunally your going to have to have some faith i'm not sure ndiswapper will work when your on a live cd....
[09:15] <rufio242> gabz, ok, ill install it right now
[09:15] <bright_fame> ferronica: the easiest way to run recoverjpeg is: image you ubuntu disk onto the 200GB disk, then run recoverjpeg on the image
[09:15] <Rei-chan> Ok, so, I installed a metric f-ton of packages.
[09:16] <Gabz> rufio242: i do recomend you move to 6.10 if you have that around
[09:16] <Rei-chan> And most of these seem to not quite be configured correctly.
[09:16] <Gabz> rufio242: actaully 7.04 is the best one yet for begginers it just has to come out of beta due out the 19th..
[09:16] <Rei-chan> GTK-Gnutella, for example, runs but then dies.
[09:16] <ferronica> bright_fame: so risky process :S
[09:16] <rufio242> gabz should i wait then?
[09:17] <bright_fame> ferronica: yep, may be safest for me to give up saving your photos :(
[09:18] <Gabz> rufio242: um.. thats up to you but 7.04 has some big improvements in it i installed the beta version a couple days ago.
[09:18] <rufio242> gabz so its worth it then?
[09:18] <ozzloy> what do i have to install to get #include <qwidget.h> to work?
[09:18] <Chili> Anyone had any luck with a Soundblaster LIve! card in xubuntu?
[09:18] <Gabz> rufio242: your new to linux ?
[09:18] <corevette> rufio242, this question of whether you should wait has come up a lot in irc lately; personally, its only 10 more days...and i'm sure there will be plenty of updates and with the cd coming you might as well
[09:19] <rufio242> gabz yeah
[09:19] <YoMero> exist some how to for build a cd install updated ? i mean a cd with the sames packages, but the lastest?
[09:19] <corevette> rufio242 what are you using right now
[09:19] <Gabz> rufio242: i personally recomend waiting for 7.04
[09:19] <DaGiz> I just installed ubuntu and am trying ti install kismet but on ./configure i get "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables"
[09:19] <Ali_ix> !compile
[09:19] <ubotu> 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!)
[09:20] <rufio242> corevette well im running windows but ive had a 6.06 disk lying around and i was gonna install but i didnt want to screw myself if i couldnt get the adapter to work
[09:20] <bright_fame> ferronica: how long have you been using ubuntu?
[09:20] <rufio242> gabz alright, im in no hurry to install it, im just sick and tired of windows
[09:20] <berto_> hello, I have just installed ubuntu 704. I have a vfat partition that I want to use for several users. I didn't put it into the fstab. I want gnome auto-mount it when I log in and unmount whant I disconnect. how can I do ?
[09:21] <ferronica> bright_fame: from 1 week
[09:21] <ferronica> bright_fame: and you
[09:21] <Gabz> !feisty | berto_
[09:21] <ubotu> berto_: 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)
[09:21] <corevette> rufio242, i would wait..what wireless are you using...and do you know for sure its supported...because thats the #1 prob for beginners
[09:21] <bright_fame> ferronica: about one year, before that used suse linux and before that mandrake :)
[09:22] <Gabz> corevette: he has a card which he'll have to use ndiswrapper so it may or may not work
[09:22] <mira> ...
[09:22] <berto_> Gabz: what do you mean ?
[09:22] <Rei-chan> I just installed XP in a VMWare Player VM to run PRINTER DRIVERS.
[09:22] <mira> hey
[09:23] <ferronica> bright_fame: suse is paid i think so
[09:23] <Gabz> berto_:  untill 7.04 comes out of beta you need to ask for help in #ubuntu+1
[09:23] <ferronica> bright_fame: Alll Linux distro are same
[09:23] <corevette> Gabz, he's guaranteed he's gonna need help configuring ndiswrapper...
[09:23] <berto_> ok thank you Gabz :)
[09:23] <bright_fame> ferronica: think i got it free from a linux magazine cover disk - but was not their most recent version at the time
[09:23] <BlackLiger> you know, every time I look into this channel, I see about 8 acronyms that I don't understand...
[09:24] <Gabz> corevette: i know but he knows how to use irc so he'll just come back for more help :D
[09:24] <Rei-chan> ferronica, There's OpenSUSE...
[09:24] <ferronica> bright_fame: now what you make us e ubuntu
[09:24] <corevette> Gabz, what wireless does he have
[09:25] <Crazytom> corevette, i think it's a bcm4311
[09:25] <Gabz> corevette:  Belkin_F5D7050 that one
[09:25] <corevette> madwifi doesn't support it gabz?
[09:25] <bright_fame> ferronica: at the time i changed it was easier to download ubuntu for free than suse
[09:26] <ferronica> bright_fame: ok
[09:26] <ferronica> bright_fame: all other distro are comlicated??
[09:27] <Gabz> corevette: i doesn't look to be supported from the sreachs i've done but the chipset changes with every revision of hardware manufactures are barsteds
[09:27] <bright_fame> ferronica: not really, some are also probably similar to ubuntu (suse was easy to install for example), but ubuntu is certainly one of the most friendly distros
[09:27] <ferronica> bright_fame: ok
[09:29] <ferronica> bright_fame: right now i am facing one problem
[09:29] <bright_fame> ferronica: with ubuntu?
[09:29] <ferronica> bright_fame: when i choose some Icon from theme manger
[09:30] <ferronica> bright_fame: ubuntu pannels top and bottom get disappear
[09:30] <ferronica> bright_fame: I think some icons broken or damage
[09:30] <trenton> hey all, what is the terminal command to show the graphical logout/shutdown/hibernate/ect stuff? I'm wanting to make a shortcut on the desktop.
[09:30] <bright_fame> ferronica: mmm could be
[09:31] <ferronica> bright_fame: and in some theme preferences cross marked
[09:31] <ferronica> bright_fame: It mean they are uninstalled from ubutnu
[09:32] <ferronica> bright_fame: Is there any way to recover ubuntu
[09:32] <ferronica> bright_fame: Ilike as we do sometime in windows
[09:32] <ferronica> bright_fame: windows recovery
[09:33] <bright_fame> ferronica: not sure in this case, i don't think ubuntu comes with anykind of recovery/backup installed by default
[09:33] <ferronica> bright_fame: okay
[09:33] <bright_fame> ferronica: there are certainly backup/recovery solutions for linux, like mondo rescue, but not sure they are similar to windows version
[09:33] <ferronica> bright_fame: other way
[09:34] <trenton> ferronica; for backup purposes, i always recommend saving your /home directory on a dvd periodically
[09:34] <PORDO> does ubuntu have any sort of internal election process for board members or anything like that?
[09:35] <henull> whats command for deleting folder /var/lib/pvpgn/ and only that folder?
[09:36] <trenton> henull, rm -rf /var/lib/pvpgn
[09:36] <dave__> i think "sudo rm -r" could
[09:36] <trenton> err, sudo first...
[09:36] <trenton> :P
[09:36] <henull> oki thanks :)
[09:36] <Gabz> PORDO:  ubuntu is developed by a company, you can become an ubuntu memerber otherwise you apply for a job with canonical
[09:37] <PORDO> i see.  even some companies have internal elections.
[09:37] <PORDO> like the madison market in seattle, who is going to be using range voting soon.
[09:38] <cafuego_> No, you're probably thinking of Debian.
[09:38] <Inbilla> Hey guys, I'm trying to hibernate my machine, but it keeps giving the error: "swsusp: Not enough free memory" anyone know how to fix this?
[09:38] <Gabz> PORDO: how the canonical company is run isn't something i know about nor is it the correct topic for this room
[09:38] <Rei-chan> PORDO, : Take a look at canonical.com
[09:38] <Pooky> Can someone suggest a howto on downloading a source package and recompiling/installing it?
[09:38] <Rei-chan> The company behind Ubuntu.
[09:38] <PORDO> thanks guys.
[09:38] <cafuego_> Inbilla: make sure you have a large enough swap partition.
[09:38] <skwashd> hi all
[09:38] <rami> hello everyone
[09:38] <crimsun> Pooky: `apt-get -b source foo' ?
[09:38] <Inbilla> how large should it be? I'm pretty sure it is 2gig ish
[09:38] <PORDO> The Ubuntu Community Council will act as the advisory board of the Foundation. Current members of that Council are Benjamin Mako Hill, Colin Watson, ...
[09:39] <skwashd> is there a way to get xmms back when you accidentially untick ... hide main window?
[09:39] <cafuego_> AT least as large as main memory, plus a bit extra.
[09:39] <Pooky> crimsun, I guess I need to read a primer on apt-get :p
[09:39] <skwashd> i know xmms is a PoS ... but it is ok for listening to single mp3
[09:39] <Rei-chan> !canonical
[09:39] <ubotu> Canonical Ltd. is committed to the development, distribution and promotion of open source software products, and to providing tools and support to the open source community. It is the driving force behind the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu Operating Systems. Canonical's website is at http://www.canonical.com/
[09:39] <rami> i'm trying to connect to a box via XDMCP. Xnest works fine and give me the login prompt, but X crashes immediately after displaying a cursor
[09:39] <henull> still im getting same error, when im instaling anythin it says setting up pvpgn and does failure
[09:39] <rami> what do you think i could do?
[09:39] <PORDO> http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/council
[09:40] <PORDO> bam.
[09:40] <Rei-chan> skwashd, I'm starting to like Rythymbox.
[09:40] <trenton> Inbilla, i never see a need to go over a gig....and i don't remember seeing it using all that swap space...maybe if you did video editing or something.
[09:40] <Rei-chan> PORDO: Since this is the #Unbuntu Community Support Channel, not a lot of people are going to know what you're talking about.
[09:40] <skwashd> Rei-chan: i like it too ... but not when it reindexes 25G of music :P
[09:40] <Inbilla> yeah, so what sort of things should I be looking at to resolve this one?
[09:41] <trenton> henull, that has to do with apt-get, lemme see what the command is to get rid of that message
[09:41] <skwashd> Rei-chan: exaile is nice too
[09:41] <ferronica> bright_fame: ??
[09:42] <Rei-chan> skwashd: I haven't seen that one yet.
[09:42] <bright_fame> ferronica: yep?
[09:43] <ferronica> bright_fame: So how to remove uninstalled theme from ubuntu
[09:43] <skwashd> Rei-chan: install it :)
[09:43] <PORDO> ugh.  mark shuttleworth just appoints people, and it's held to a confirmation vote.  freakin dictator. :D
[09:44] <ferronica> bright_fame: i wanna remove them is it possible???
[09:44] <skwashd> PORDO: the alternative is a proper democracy ... look at how long debian etch took to go gold :P
[09:44] <bright_fame> ferronica: search for it in synaptic and uninstall from there? not sure
[09:44] <ferronica> bright_fame: okay
[09:44] <skwashd> Rei-chan: try it with apt-get ... and you will find out
[09:45] <Rei-chan> PORDO: How do you think companies are run? They're all dictatorships.
[09:45] <dave__> anyone can tell me where does wine install Windows program to?
[09:45] <Rei-chan> Install... windows program?
[09:45] <Rei-chan> It doesn't install Windows, does it?
[09:45] <bef> YEAH 27 SECONDS
[09:45] <bef> caps, sorry.
[09:46] <dave__> where is the program dir in ubuntu then?
[09:46] <corevette> dave__ ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ FIles/
[09:46] <FatalError> anyone know where in KDE settings (kubuntu) to set the compose key? I never had much trouble finding it on KDE before but I don't see it now
[09:46] <Epic720> can anyone tell me why clicking the scroll button does not take scroll control under firefox>?
[09:46] <corevette> dave__ got it?
[09:47] <FatalError> Epic720, scroll control?
[09:47] <dave__> thanks i am looking for it
[09:47] <henull> trenton i would aprociate it
[09:47] <PORDO> Rei-chan lots of companies have elections for boards and such.
[09:47] <corevette> do you have it set Epic720? under edit>preferences>advanced>enable autoscrolling
[09:47] <Rei-chan> skwashd, no such package exaile
[09:47] <Epic720> yeah, in windows I could hit the scroll button on my mouse and just move around the page
[09:47] <PORDO> especially non-profits and the like.
[09:47] <skwashd> Epic720: you mean the middle button which on some mice is bastardized into a scroll whell like thing?
[09:47] <PORDO> i've convinced Seattle's Madison Market to tentatively use Range Voting, for example.
[09:47] <Epic720> yeah....
[09:48] <trenton> hendaus, yeah, i had that prob a year ago, and i'm trying to remember what the command was to get rid of it.
[09:48] <skwashd> Rei-chan: it must be in one of my 3rd party repos
[09:48] <corevette> epic720 do what i told you
[09:48] <Rei-chan> skwashd: Ah...
[09:48] <corevette> epic720 the folder .wine is hidden in your home folder
[09:48] <dervasavred> Evening, folks.
[09:49] <BobPenguin> hello guys. A Newbie here. I have ubuntu dapper 6.10 LTS. I completely screw it off trying to upgrade. Now I cant boot because it cant load x. I tried to reinstall it usisng the dvd but installation crashed. What should i do to recover my dapper installation?
[09:49] <skwashd> Rei-chan: google for it ... i am using debs for it ... on edgy ... got lazy with fiesty ... now wating for gold
[09:49] <Rei-chan> PORDO: Canonical is not a non-profit, I don't believe, they sell support and" enterprise class" linux distribution. Also, someone suggested the support channel isn't a discussion channel on Canonical's business operations.
[09:49] <dave__> corevette i disappointed you, i found the dir but no program in "Program Files"
[09:49] <dave__> i tried installed a program via wine
[09:49] <corevette> dave__ which program
[09:49] <Rei-chan> skwashd, taking a google look.
[09:49] <Epic720> corvette: that worked great. And I was about to tell you when I hit Shift+Backspace.... can I get help changing that key?
[09:50] <PORDO> i'm not asking about their business operations.
[09:50] <Epic720> I thought restarting xserver was Cntrl + Shift + Backspace......
[09:50] <skwashd> BobPenguin: what were you upgrading?
[09:50] <jarrett> ty corevette, i was having the scrolling problem also and figured it was a problem with the driver, didnt think it would be so simple
[09:50] <corevette> epic720...not sure about that
[09:50] <dave__> a program called "xunlei web" developed by Chinese
[09:50] <corevette> anytime jarrett
[09:50] <skwashd> PORDO: the model is part of the operations
[09:50] <PORDO> skwashd debian uses a poor election system though - Condorcet.
[09:51] <corevette> jarrett and epic720: firefox really should have that option enabled
[09:51] <dave__> i installed it to "c:\program files\xunlei", but there is only "common files" now
[09:51] <dervasavred> BobPenguin, isn't there a recovery option on standard boot from CD?
[09:51] <PORDO> any ordinal voting method is BAD.  Look at Condorcet-least-reversal's utility efficiency for instance: http://rangevoting.org/vsi.html
[09:51] <Gabz> !off-topic
[09:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about off-topic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:51] <Epic720> it didn't in ubuntu. Does with 2.0 in Windows
[09:51] <milaks> Hi. When I try to run `sudo update-manager --help" I get this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14676/ although libpango is installed. I use Feisty Fawn, can someone tell me how to correct this?
[09:51] <skwashd> PORDO: gNewSense is a dictatorship too ... as are many distros
[09:51] <corevette> dave__ it would install in that directory...make sure it is not hidden, other than that i don't know what to tell you
[09:52] <BobPenguin> I first upgrades ubuntu from dapper to edgy. I had some problems with nautilus then. I tried to upgrade from edgy to feisty beta without solving the nautilus thing. I got no standart recovery option in my dvd installer
[09:52] <skwashd> PORDO: and the GNU project is not democratic ... rms plays "dictator" there
[09:52] <dave__> ok i will reinstall it, thanks a lot
[09:52] <dervasavred> Hmm
[09:52] <PORDO> that's kind of depressing.  :(  why did I think ubuntu was some sort of non-profit entity?
[09:52] <corevette> sorry dave__
[09:52] <Epic720> How can i change the default keypress Shift + Backspace?
[09:52] <cafuego_> And even in a true democracy one generally doesn't call a vote without first knowing the outcome.
[09:52] <skwashd> BobPenguin: do you have a console available using [ctrl] -[alt] -[f1]  ?
[09:52] <PORDO> cafuego_ ?!
[09:53] <Matt4781581> GUYS: arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics. You might win but you're still retarded.
[09:53] <PORDO> cafuego_ in most democracies, elections happen at a specified interval.
[09:53] <BobPenguin> u mean a terminal? yes.
[09:53] <skwashd> BobPenguin: good

[09:53] <cafuego_> PORDO: And a lot of people work very hard to mak sure the outcome is known beforehand.
[09:54] <jarrett> this isnt really a ubuntu question, more of an irc question, is there a way to print someones name without typing it, by holding down some hotkey and clicking or something,  i remember doing it before but havent used irc for ages, using XChat-GNOME 0.16 btw
[09:54] <PORDO> cafuego_ which is why they need fraud-prevention and to eliminate Gerrymandering.  http://RangeVoting.org/Rivest3B.html http://RangeVoting.org/GerryExamples.html
[09:54] <cafuego_> Anyway, none of that bears any relation to Ubuntu support.
[09:54] <skwashd> PORDO: if democracies were great ... bush never would have won florida ... and the world would be a very different place today </politics>
[09:54] <PORDO> skwashd bush won florida because our democracy is BROKEN!
[09:54] <PORDO> we have the wrong voting method, for one thing.  with Range Voting, florida 2000 wouldn't have happened.
[09:54] <crimsun> err, please let's omit the politics, k?
[09:54] <milaks> Hi. When I try to run `sudo update-manager --help" I get this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14676/ although libpango is installed. I use Feisty Fawn, can someone tell me how to correct this?
[09:54] <crimsun> this is a /support/ channel
[09:54] <skwashd> PORDO: s/our/my ... not mine :P
[09:54] <Matt4781581> espcially us politics
[09:55] <Rei-chan> !offtopic
[09:55] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:55] <PORDO> skwashd #ubuntu-offtopic pls.
[09:55] <BobPenguin> skwashd, is there a command I can write on the terminal to repair my system?
[09:55] <Epic720> How can i change the default keypress Shift + Backspace?
[09:55] <skwashd> PORDO: no ... i am here for support ... not talking crap shit to waste time
[09:55] <skwashd> PORDO: and don't pm me
[09:56] <PORDO> take your meds.
[09:56] <skwashd> BobPenguin: lets try ... sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install -f
[09:56] <thirdalbum> Hi people
[09:56] <thirdalbum> In Evolution, I'm getting the following error message: Error while Storing folder '.#evolution/Junk'.
[09:56] <thirdalbum> Error storing `~/.evolution/mail/local/Inbox (mbox)': Summary and folder mismatch, even after a sync
[09:57] <thirdalbum> This happens when I try to delete my junk mail or what's in the trash
[09:57] <BobPenguin> skwash: thaks a lot. Is that one command or two separated by the ";"?
[09:57] <dervasavred> OK, I have an extremely stupid question.
[09:57] <skwashd> BobPenguin: 2
[09:57] <corevette> dervasavred fire away
[09:57] <BobPenguin> skwashd: thaks a lot again, Ill try it now
[09:57] <dervasavred> I know that the NTFS format is not supported in Linux, but FAT32 is.
[09:58] <crimsun> dervasavred: yes it is.
[09:58] <scottam> NTFS can usually be read
[09:58] <Epic720> NTFS can be written to with ntfs-3g
[09:58] <epi> NTFS is supported.
[09:58] <dervasavred> Oh, really?
[09:58] <skwashd> BobPenguin: it may not work ... this is first attempt at fixing it :)
[09:58] <dervasavred> Nice, Wikipedia is wrong again!
[09:58] <henull> trenton found anythin? this kinda creeps me out since cant install anythin :/
[09:58] <dervasavred> So, that leads me to my question
[09:58] <dervasavred> Hehe
[09:58] <scottam> (thus you are obligated to fix wikipedia)
[09:58] <corevette> dervasavred you can actually write to NTFS with a third party program
[09:58] <Ali_ix> !ntfs
[09:58] <BobPenguin> skwashd: thaks, if it does not work I will be back :)
[09:58] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:59] <trenton> henull, still looking, but I'll find it soon enough
[09:59] <dervasavred> Excellent, thanks, ubotu
[09:59] <Ali_ix> !bot
[09:59] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:59] <skwashd> dervasavred: the bot loves people talking to it :)
[09:59] <dervasavred> Haha
[09:59] <henull> oki thanks
[09:59] <dervasavred> It's all the same
[09:59] <BobPenguin> thanks a lot guys, bye
[10:00] <scottam> so is there any way for me to automatically ignore the bot?
[10:00] <skwashd> i solved my problem ... restart xmms
[10:00] <dervasavred> I've been looking at switching to Linux via dual-boot for a while and the new Beta for this has convinced me to give it a fair shot finally.
[10:00] <corevette> dervasavred wait for feisty to come out on the 18th
[10:00] <corevette> *19th
[10:00] <dervasavred> Oh, that's my other question
[10:01] <dervasavred> I realize this is a Beta and all, but will the differences between Beta and release really be that significant?
[10:01] <skwashd> scottam: /IGNORE *!*@ubuntu/bot/ubotu ALL
[10:01] <skwashd> scottam: that _should_ work
[10:01] <dervasavred> I mean, significant enough to warrant a re-install of the Release version?
[10:01] <Epic720> Seroiusly, the amount of times I have quit and rejoined this chat was because I am constantly accidentally pressing Shift + Backspace. CAN SOMEONE HELP!!!
[10:02] <skwashd> Epic720: which irc client ?
[10:02] <cubex> hello everyone
[10:02] <cubex> i'm trying to connect to a box via XDMCP, and X keeps crashing
[10:02] <Epic720> not an error with the chat. Shift + Backspace restarts Xserver and logs out....
[10:02] <skwashd> Epic720: gnome ?
[10:03] <Epic720> yes
[10:03] <skwashd> prefernces > keyboard shortcuts
[10:03] <cubex> strange thing is, Xnest -ac -query <hostname> :1 works fine. but replace Xnest with X, and X keeps zapping and restarting
[10:03] <Epic720> couldn't find that binding in there....
[10:03] <cubex> can anybody help me please?
[10:03] <skwashd> Epic720: hmmm ... not its not there
[10:04] <Epic720> it restarts Xserver, not just logs out...
[10:04] <skwashd> mine is the X default ... [ctrl] -[alt] -[bs] 
[10:04] <skwashd> i know
[10:04] <Epic720> thats what I thought mine was....
[10:04] <Epic720> thats what I always pressed, but I have a tendecncy to press Shift + Backspace ALL THE TIME!
[10:04] <dervasavred> Anyway, much obliged for the help.
[10:05] <berto_> hello, My computer doesn't completly turn off when I halt it :( I add apm=off acpi=force into kernel option into grub, but it's the same. do you see something more to do ?
[10:05] <trenton> henull, what was the package name that it hangs the installer up with again?
[10:06] <xj24> could someone tell me which version of supertux was available in 5.10?
[10:06] <henull> pvpgn
[10:06] <skwashd> berto_: how old is it?
[10:06] <crimsun> xj24: packages.ubuntu.com/supertux

[10:06] <xj24> crimsun: thanks
[10:07] <berto_> skwashd: the mother board has 1 year old
[10:08] <Bhaskar> how can i customize the login windows, there o want to display my photo and some Nepali text
[10:09] <skwashd> berto_: is it a problem using "sudo halt" or "sudo shutdown -h now" ?
[10:09] <Epic720> can I please get some help changing my key binding Shift + Backspace.....
[10:09] <skwashd> Epic720: someone will answer if they know the answer ... pleading every 5mins will just piss people off ... not get you help
[10:09] <berto_> skwashd: no it's the same if I use 'halt' or if I click 'shutdown' into gnome UI
[10:10] <skwashd> berto_: mobo and cpu ?
[10:10] <skwashd> Bhaskar: do you understand xml ?
[10:11] <Bhaskar> skwashd, ya
[10:11] <Epic720> fixed it, in case anyone wanted to know
[10:11] <thirdalbum> Figured out the answer to my Evolution problem; if anyone's desperately Googling for me (unlikely), thanks.
[10:11] <berto_> skwashd: the motherborad is DFI 915P-TAG
[10:12] <skwashd> Bhaskar: edit the relevant theme under /usr/share/gdm/themes/
[10:12] <skwashd> Bhaskar: best to make backup first
[10:13] <skwashd> and also you will to use sudo to start gedit or vim or what ever editor you prefer
[10:13] <skwashd> Epic720: how?
[10:13] <Epic720> changed my keyboard layout from 101 -pc to 105-intl
[10:14] <Epic720> 101 reads shift + backspace the same as shift + cntrl + backspave
[10:14] <Epic720> *backspace
[10:14] <trenton> henull, ok, let's type "sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives" then "sudo apt-get clean" then "sudo apt-get update"
[10:15] <pkundu> hi I have installed "search" under "Accesories", but after that it asked for a indexing
[10:15] <pkundu> which I did
[10:15] <Inbilla> what should I do if when using "uswsusp" I get the error: "suspend: Could not stat the resume device file"?
[10:15] <pkundu> but now my system is hanging now and then
[10:15] <henull> :< still sayin setting up pvpgn :/
[10:15] <pkundu> how can I disable the indexing
[10:16] <Bhaskar> skwashd, how can i  add more text there?
[10:19] <trenton> henull, try "sudo apt-get check" and see if it goes away
[10:20] <skwashd> Bhaskar: sorry was ordering dinner :)
[10:20] <skwashd> Bhaskar: look at /usr/share/gdm/themes/Human/Human.xml
[10:21] <skwashd> Bhaskar: see where it says password box ?
[10:21] <trenton> henull, or maybe "sudo apt-get -f install"
[10:21] <livenicely> i cant browws through konquer
[10:21] <henull> You are missing the pvpgn support files and daemon will not start without them.
[10:21] <henull> Run pvpgn-support-installer or read /usr/share/doc/pvpgn/README.Debian
[10:22] <henull> still same tihng
[10:22] <henull> thing*
[10:22] <Daverocks> livenicely: what does it say when you try?
[10:22] <trenton> henull, run that pvpgn-support-installer and see if that works
[10:22] <livenicely> only local sides brows
[10:23] <henull> done it more than twice
[10:23] <Daverocks> livenicely: hmm, so what happens when you try to browse the web? does konqueror say anything?
[10:23] <livenicely> i cant browse sides outside pakistan
[10:23] <Daverocks> livenicely: can you browse sites outside pakistan in other web browsers?
[10:24] <livenicely> nothing just shows geo.tv contacted waiting for reply
[10:24] <skwashd> livenicely: what about on other PCs?
[10:24] <livenicely> yes
[10:24] <livenicely> i can browse
[10:24] <Shafto> livenicely, Are you on that box now?
[10:25] <livenicely> ubuntu is going well but kubuntu is giving this message
[10:25] <Shafto> livenicely, Try the #kubuntu channel
[10:25] <livenicely> pppd started without the debug option when i connect dial up
[10:25] <livenicely> error 16
[10:26] <Daverocks> livenicely: error 16 from konqueror or from pppd?
[10:27] <livenicely> 16 from pppd
[10:27] <trenton> henull, how about sudo dpkg --configure -a
[10:28] <trenton> henull, here is a link to where i'm reading to run that: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-erros.en.html
[10:28] <henull> oki ill read it, thanks :)
[10:28] <livenicely> my browser settings are direct to internet and disabled sock for dial up
[10:28] <syock> SCIM isn't in the session startup settings, but it starts automatically when I start GNOME. Where is the location of the settings for startup of such applications?
[10:28] <BobPenguin> hello again, cant get x to work still...
[10:29] <Shafto> BobPenguin, Whats up with it?
[10:29] <Daverocks> livenicely: yeah, it's not really konqueror's problem, pppd provides direct internet access through a interface
[10:29] <Shafto> BobPenguin, Something to do with graphics/screens i bet :P
[10:30] <MaVe|2ick> hi guys is there any way to connect from ubuntu to xp on local are network using file sharing
[10:30] <livenicely> so what i can do for this problem
[10:30] <Shafto> MaVe|2ick, Putty i believe
[10:30] <BobPenguin> shafto> Im usiing ubuntu dapper. I tried to update to edgy and I screw it up. Now x cant get up. I tried sudo apt-get upgrade and sudo apt-get install -f and did not work
[10:30] <Shafto> MaVe|2ick, Ohh noo thats the other way :)
[10:30] <Rei-chan> MaVe|2ick, in what way, to share files or what?
[10:31] <Shafto> BobPenguin, Whats the X error though?
[10:31] <Daverocks> livenicely: hm, compare kubuntu's ppp settings with ubuntu's
[10:32] <syock> My GNOME session usually starts with 2 scim-panel applets, though after some time one of them will go away. How do I stop from having two started at startup?
[10:32] <BobPenguin> shafto: i get this at startup: cannont set LC_All to default locale: no suich file or directory
[10:32] <livenicely> but why it only browse local sides
[10:32] <HOT> how do i cut down channel chatter in kopete? i dont want to see leave or idle messages if possible
[10:33] <BobPenguin> shafto I have noticed there might be a problem with my sources list too. When I did the sudp apt-get thing I saw url of both Dapper and Feisty versions
[10:33] <Shafto> BobPenguin, Can you get into terminal on your ubuntu box?
[10:34] <Flannel> BobPenguin: Feisty?
[10:34] <BobPenguin> shafto> yes
[10:34] <Shafto> BobPenguin, Try this for now export LC_ALL="en_US"
[10:34] <BobPenguin> flanel: yes
[10:34] <Flannel> BobPenguin: pastebin your sources.list
[10:34] <trenton> anybody know what the command is that the quit button uses?
[10:35] <zeroflag> shutdown?
[10:35] <hyper_ch> hiho, how comes the alternate cd isn't displayed anymore on the ubuntu.com download site?
[10:36] <BobPenguin> thanks Shafto, Flannel, I will try it ouy
[10:36] <syock> After shutting down my computer (using the option Shutdown), my computer boots by itself when I move my mouse, as if the computer had gone to hibernation even though it didn't. At every bootup, there's the message "No disk image to read" or something like that. That's, of course, is because it didn't go to hibernation. Can someone explain this weird behaviour?
[10:36] <khvn> hello
[10:36] <khvn> i'm using nvidia beta drivers+beryl on my xubuntu
[10:36] <khvn> (strangely enough it works amazing even with ye olde geforce2 of mine:)
[10:36] <khvn> i've got a problem running fullscreen gl applications (or even any fullscreen applications) when beryl is on
[10:36] <khvn> i've tried xlaunch (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-483004-start-150-postdays-0-postorder-asc-highlight-.html), followed all the steps described in the first post there, but it doesn't work
[10:36] <khvn> is anything in this script needs to be changed specificly for xubuntu?
[10:36] <BobPenguin> out
[10:36] <steinar> hei
[10:36] <steinar> noen som skriver norsk her ?
[10:37] <Flannel> !no | steinar
[10:37] <ubotu> steinar: Hvis du vil diskutere Ubuntu paa norsk, venligst gaa til #ubuntu-no. Takk!
[10:37] <trenton> no, it's not shutdown
[10:38] <trenton> I'm wanting to add a desktop shutdown button for other users that can't seem to find it in the right-hand corner of their screen lol
[10:38] <hyper_ch> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download --> why isn't the alternate shown anymore?
[10:38] <trenton> err, not shutdown, but were it asks to logout, shutdown, restart, ect
[10:39] <trenton> like, the button
[10:39] <flyingrabbit> I'm looking to install ubuntu on my laptop but when I load the live cd Im having display issues, after the loadscreen for gnome finishes the monitor powers down.  external monitors work, but i would like to know how to use the laptor default monitor.
[10:40] <trenton> or just a simple logout icon for the desktop will work
[10:40] <Shafto> hyper_ch, Probably because the livecd is easier and works fine
[10:41] <hyper_ch> Shafto: for many people the livecd doesn't work
[10:41] <Flannel> flyingrabbit: grab the alternate CD
[10:42] <Flowerbauer> hi, are there any disadvantages to using 64bit ubuntu as opposed to the 32bit version (like driversupport etc. with windows 64bit)?
[10:42] <Flannel> hyper_ch: because someone made a mistake (well, a few mistakes) when planning it.  You also can't get Dapper stuff without JS, and plenty of other quirks.  releases.ubuntu.com will get you a full list, always.
[10:42] <payan> hyper_ch: 'Cause it is an alernate :)
[10:42] <Flannel> Flowerbauer: No flash on 64bit, and other issues like that.  Proprietary stuff.
[10:42] <camer0ff> hello
[10:43] <hyper_ch> Flannel: I just told a couple of people to get the alternate cd... and they just said to me there is none... I had to look myself and got what they needed by browsing through the mirror lists
[10:43] <Flowerbauer> i see, thx
[10:43] <payan> hyper_ch: You can still get
[10:43] <payan> iy
[10:43] <Taime1> does this mean my card cant sniff packets in rfmon mode? Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
[10:43] <Taime1>     SET failed on device eth1 ; Operation not permitted.
[10:43] <payan> *it
[10:44] <Flannel> hyper_ch: yeah.  You really need to dig to get it.  It's a bad system.  Bugs have been filed.  Someone though flashy round corners were more important than usability (or never thought about usability in the first place).
[10:44] <hyper_ch> Flannel: the last time I checked it was all there easy to download... oh well...
[10:45] <camer0ff> i have a problem with dns or name server on my ubuntu 5.10 machine. running a dlink router. is there a common issue that stops the machine being able to see websites?
[10:45] <hyper_ch> *smile* my second howto got published :)
[10:45] <camer0ff> hyper_ch congrats
[10:46] <camer0ff> :)
[10:46] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: thx :)
[10:46] <camer0ff> hyper_ch any chance of asking for help though?
[10:46] <velko> camer0ff, are you able to ping the site?
[10:46] <Kendreague> Where would I be able to find the isl3886 driver in source so that I can compile it? I'm running on PowerPC and nobody else seems to be
[10:46] <Flannel> camer0ff: You ought to think about upgrading.  5.10 is going out of support in a few days.  That has a good chance (upgrading) of solving the issue at that.
[10:47] <camer0ff> velko i can ping
[10:47] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: and when you hook yourself up directly to the internet connection? does dns work then?
[10:47] <khvn> anybody? :(
[10:47] <camer0ff> Flannel; 6.06 doesnt run when i boot and 5.10 is the only other disc i had
[10:47] <velko> camer0ff, so it is not a dns problem. firewall?
[10:47] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: looks in your /etc/resolve.conf  file
[10:48] <camer0ff> velko hyper_ch, its a fresh install of 5.10
[10:48] <netyang> 6.10 is a good choice
[10:48] <camer0ff> Linux_Galore; will check
[10:48] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: did you try 6.10 (alternate) or maybe even feisty?
[10:48] <camer0ff> the only problem is this is a slow computer...
[10:48] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: there should be two ip addresses in there that tell the browser how to resolve any addresses
[10:48] <camer0ff> hyper_ch 600mhz processor, 256mb ram
[10:48] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: then running xubuntu instead of ubuntu may help
[10:48] <Zaggynl> How can I make sure apt-get installs packages first, then downloads new ones? I'm going low on diskspace :(
[10:49] <Kendreague> camer0ff: It can't be too slow. I'm running 6.10 on a 250MHz G3 with 256 meg ram :)
[10:49] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: or even ubuntulite
[10:49] <locksey> would someone please advise me about this command <sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 546>, And, (A). would it allow my dial up adaptor to upload files. (B). Dont I have to run update or something to have this take effect. r00tintheb0x, was tryoing to help me yesterday, allong with about 10 others at the same time. But I was too thick.
[10:49] <camer0ff> just download the files from the site?
[10:49] <velko> Zaggynl, install the packages one by one. or do "sudo aptitude clean" in between
[10:50] <Zaggynl> velko, okay thanks
[10:50] <Zaggynl> It's a dang long list though
[10:51] <velko> Zaggynl, if you have free space on another hard disk (or partition) you can use it instead of your default partition
[10:51] <KDan> hello... I'm using Xubuntu... According to http://lunapark6.com/overview-of-xfce-44.html there's a "Compositing" settings tab in the "Window Manager Tweaks" in Xfce... however this appears to be missing from my "Window Manager Tweaks" settings window... any ideas as to whether it's possible to enable it again/how?
[10:51] <Linux_Galore> locksey: eht0  is the ethernet lan connector, nothing to do with a dial up modem
[10:51] <Linux_Galore> eth0*

[10:52] <cipherz> hello, how do I set coredump size to unlimited for a normal user on an ubuntu system ?
[10:52] <srikanthssn> how do i create image of a floppy  in Ubuntu ?
[10:52] <camer0ff> Linux_Galore; 10.1.1.1 is my dlink modem/router
[10:52] <cipherz> I tried ulimit -c unlimited but as a user I get perm. errors, I can set it as root but the value is not inherited :\
[10:53] <cipherz> srikanthssn, dd if=/dev/fd0 of=file ?
[10:53] <Tomcat_> KDan: What graphics card?
[10:54] <Linux_Galore> Camaxtli: aaah, set up a static connection and set the gateway as the routers and the dns (two of them) to 208.67.220.220 208.67.220.222
[10:54] <KDan> nvidia
[10:54] <KDan> a Geforce Go I believe. drivers are installed since I had Beryl running on this a few months ago
[10:54] <Linux_Galore> Camaxtli: routers IP sorry as the gateway
[10:55] <Tomcat_> KDan: Try adding the code listing 4.8 from http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xfce-config.xml to your xorg.conf
[10:55] <Tomcat_> KDan: That will enable compositing.
[10:55] <srikanthssn> cipherz, that command executed successfully , but no file found
[10:55] <KDan> Tomcat_: thank you :-)
[10:55] <Tomcat_> KDan: Can't guarantee that it'll work, but it's a try. :D
[10:55] <camer0ff> whats the difference between power pc and desktop?
[10:56] <rambo3> the power
[10:56] <hubert999> how do you uninstall the nvidia drivers?
[10:56] <cipherz> srikanthssn, what is your floppy device ? should be /dev/fd0 or possibly /dev/floppy ?
[10:56] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: different cpu
[10:56] <serishema> how can i connect to a share on a windows 2003 server machine using samba?
[10:56] <Tomcat_> camer0ff: You can't compare that... Power PC is a hardware architecture, Desktop is a distribution flavor.
[10:56] <locksey> I love ubuntu. I think my MTU is set too fast to upload files though. I am sure soimeone could help me here.
[10:56] <Linux_Galore> !nvidia
[10:56] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:56] <cipherz> camer0ff, cpu architecture
[10:56] <rambo3> Linux_Galore, yeah but what processor arch does desktop fall under ?
[10:56] <Linux_Galore> locksey: the mtu is set either by the modem or the ISP
[10:56] <camer0ff> cipherz; thanks
[10:56] <rambo3> Thats just stupid naming
[10:57] <hubert999> no i want to remove them
[10:57] <velko> hubert999, it depends on how do you have installed them
[10:57] <camer0ff> Tomcat_ was just checking out the downloads. there was one for 64, desktop and power pc... was interested in knowing the difference :P
[10:57] <Linux_Galore> rambo3: these days its X86 or AMD64
[10:57] <Tomcat_> locksey: You can tune your MTU setting in /etc/network/interfaces... but I can't currently walk you through that.
[10:57] <camer0ff> also what is the alternate cd?
[10:57] <Tomcat_> camer0ff: Ah, in that case... amd64 is amd64, desktop is i386 and ppc is ppc... all different hardware archs.
[10:58] <Linux_Galore> rambo3: X86 is sometimes shown as i386 or i686
[10:58] <hubert999> velko: i installed them through the automatrix
[10:58] <khvn> or i586
[10:58] <rambo3> Linux_Galore, so you are saying ppc dont have Desktops ?
[10:58] <camer0ff> Tomcat_ what is the alternate cd for?
[10:58] <Linux_Galore> rambo3: they do, but thats not considered a PC. thats PPC
[10:58] <hubert999> velko: An automatic installation for alot of popular apps
[10:59] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: the alternate install is better at installing the OS especially when the LiveCD encounters problems
[10:59] <srikanthssn> cipherz,   if=/dev/fd0 of=/home/logic/Desktop/bootfloppy.img // doesnt work
[10:59] <velko> hubert999, i don't know this tool but i suppose it installs .deb packages. this means that you should be able to remove them with your package manager of choice (synaptic, apt-get, aptitude, whatever)
[10:59] <mkquist> gotta love linux, a 500 amd k62 streaming music, open konversation, gimp and terminal and no hitch in the stream... impressive, just a comment...
[10:59] <Linux_Galore> rambo3: think Apple machines or rare as hell IBM PPC desktops
[10:59] <cipherz> srikanthssn, tried mounting the floppy ?
[10:59] <camer0ff> hyper_ch thanks
[10:59] <srikanthssn> ya it mounted
[10:59] <cipherz> srikanthssn, just to confirm that the device is correct :)
[10:59] <rambo3> Linux_Galore, you dont have to explain to me processor arch , just how you think ppc is not desktop
[11:00] <Kendreague> Linux_Galore: You'll be hardpressed finding an IBM PPC desktop these days
[11:00] <Linux_Galore> rambo3: I never said it wasnt a desktop, I said it isnt PC
[11:00] <velko> hubert999, do a search for nvidia using the package manager
[11:00] <rambo3> i am off topic now i thought i was in #offtopic sorry
[11:00] <locksey>  Linux_Galore: Thanks,
[11:00] <srikanthssn> cipherz, thanks, some typo. i created
[11:00] <cipherz> srikanthssn, no worries :)
[11:00] <srikanthssn>  cipherz, same command to write back to floppy ah ?
[11:00] <locksey> Tomcat_: Thanks
[11:01] <cipherz> srikanthssn, just exchange of /if e.g. dd if=file of=/dev/fd0 :)
[11:01] <KDan> Tomcat_: hmm, didn't work unfortunately. oh well
[11:01] <flyinghippo> Hello.
[11:01] <Linux_Galore> People are always offering me DEC Alpha machines
[11:01] <srikanthssn> cipherz, ya ok :)
[11:01] <locksey> I spent most of yesterday trying to tweak  my MTU setting in /etc/network/interfaces, but cant make any sense of it.
[11:02] <xcvxv> hi, may someone help me installing ubuntu? I just downloaded it.
[11:02] <KDan> next question. i previously had gnome installed (vanilla ubuntu) before I decided to switch to xfce. Now I still have some bits and bobs hanging over from GNOME (e.g. it starts nautilus to manage the desktop). Which config file can I go to to exterminate those last few things?
[11:02] <flyinghippo> I would like to know if it is possible to remove a package that was included in a(n) *ubuntu-desktop without it uninstalling the entire desktop package.
[11:02] <Linux_Galore> locksey: you dont usually have to edit it, the ppp protocol also defines the mtu
[11:02] <xcvxv> Where do I need to go to install it? Start.exe ?
[11:02] <velko> flyinghippo, yes and no :-)
[11:03] <flyinghippo> xcvxv, did you burn it to a CD?
[11:03] <xcvxv> no, i should?
[11:03] <flyinghippo> First, look for a program called "Deepburner" and download that.
[11:03] <Linux_Galore> xcvxv: you need to burn it to a cd then reboot the machine with the CD in the drive
[11:03] <camer0ff> the resolv.conf files on my comnputer has only one line "nameserver 10.1.1.1" where 10.1.1.1 is the (dlink)router/modem... is that bad
[11:03] <camer0ff> ?
[11:03] <velko> flyinghippo, with "dpkg --remove" you can remove a package (on which a lot of other packages depend) without removing them
[11:04] <flyinghippo> This wouldn't interfere with my *ubuntu-desktop, would it?
[11:04] <velko> flyinghippo, but the next time you start a higher level package manager (apt-get, aptitude, synaptic) they will be removed too
[11:04] <Shafto> BobPenguin, Did that work?
[11:04] <camer0ff> hyper_ch the resolv.conf file on my comnputer has only one line "nameserver 10.1.1.1" where 10.1.1.1 is the (dlink)router/modem... is that bad
[11:04] <yellow_chicken> will open office work on vista?
[11:05] <flyinghippo> I see.
[11:05] <velko> flyinghippo, it depends on the package you are trying to remove. it may or it may not bork your desktop
[11:05] <BobPenguin> No luck, Shafto. Can I pm to give u details_
[11:05] <coldsteal> how do i do the boot:vga=771
[11:05] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: it should have two IP address, tells me something isnt right
[11:05] <Shafto> BobPenguin, Dont think PMs work
[11:05] <BobPenguin> ok
[11:05] <BobPenguin> ill try it here
[11:05] <flyinghippo> Well, I recently switched to Xubuntu, but wish to keep some Ubuntu programs instead of Xubuntu's alternatives.
[11:05] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: that should be ok
[11:05] <velko> flyinghippo, in aptitude you can see the dependencies (key "d") or the reverse dependencies (key "r") for any package
[11:06] <Shafto> !pastebin | BobPenguin
[11:06] <ubotu> BobPenguin: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:06] <hyper_ch> flyinghippo: you can install gnome programs, kde programs on xubuntu... no problem
[11:06] <camer0ff> Linux_Galore, hyper_ch your telling conflicting info
[11:06] <KDan> flyinghippo: did you manage to get rid of all the little bits and pieces from gnome (e.g. nautilus) which start up automatically?
[11:06] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: right now its trying to resolve all address on the modem, it should have the IP's of the dns server in there
[11:06] <Taime1> please help, im trying to get airodump to capture ivs
[11:06] <camer0ff> Linux_Galore, hyper_ch the computer used to work when i was using another router (netgear)
[11:07] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: then it's a problem with the router
[11:07] <ant_ipop>  i need help reporting a bug: its a problem about kde (on feisty) freezing, what package/product should i choose for the report ?
[11:07] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: I suspect there is a settings problem in your new router, ie there is no defined DNS
[11:07] <camer0ff> Linux_Galore, hyper_ch hehe - the windows pc's work that are connected to it :P
[11:07] <koopa_Cannabis> Xopa
[11:08] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: go to a windows pc
[11:08] <locksey> cat ip up
[11:08] <hyper_ch> open command shell (start --> run --> cmd --> Enter)
[11:08] <hyper_ch> and type:   ipconfig -all
[11:08] <ant_ipop> /joni #kubuntu
[11:08] <orbin> coldsteal: add it to the end of the kernel line in your grub config file.  need a walkthrough?
[11:08] <hyper_ch> see what dns servers are listed there
[11:08] <camer0ff> hyper_ch this is one..  kk
[11:08] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: just set it to a static connection, basically its not reading the stuff comming out of your router, that or just update
[11:09] <coldsteal> orbin: is in the install cd
[11:09] <Kendreague> Could someone please explain islsm, and where to obtain it?
[11:09] <locksey> #    Arg  Name                          Example
[11:09] <locksey> #    $1   Interface name                ppp0
[11:09] <locksey> #    $2   The tty                       ttyS1
[11:09] <locksey> #    $3   The link speed                38400
[11:09] <locksey> do I chande this to 33600 because thayts the speed of my modem?, my connection handles 52k
[11:09] <camer0ff> Linux_Galore am downloading the updates at the moment... trying to resolve first though. hyper_ch might be onto something though
[11:09] <orbin> coldsteal: ?
[11:09] <koopa_Cannabis> what you want?
[11:09] <camer0ff> hyper_ch yeah? it has brought up info
[11:09] <orbin> coldsteal: have you installed ubuntu?
[11:09] <BadBoy> how to start ftp service in UBUNTU?
[11:09] <coldsteal> nope orbin
[11:10] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: what dns server has it listed?
[11:10] <camer0ff> DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.1.1.1
[11:10] <Linux_Galore> hyper_ch: he has no dns servers just a big pointer to the router
[11:10] <camer0ff> hyper_ch DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.1.1.1
[11:10] <orbin> coldsteal: so i'm guessing you want to use that option for the live cd?
[11:10] <locksey> hyper_ch: soory you are talking to me, I did not see, i read now thanks
[11:10] <coldsteal> yes
[11:11] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: nothing else?
[11:11] <camer0ff> Linux_Galore, hyper_ch.. do you know of any isssues with the d-link dsl-504T router?
[11:11] <Shafto> camer0ff, Google it :)
[11:11] <RainCT> Hi. How does it detect what type a file has? because it's saying that my .js files have C code and I can't open them directly, is there something I'd put at the top of the file to tell it's javascript or what?
[11:11] <BobPenguin> Shafto: I typed "export LC_ALL="en_us", no messages after that. Tried to reboot but got the same problems. The I typed "edit sources.list" hopping I could modify it and set it back to dapper sources. I got: perl: warning: settings locale failed: perl: warning: please check that your locale settings: LANFUAGE="en_us"; LC_ALL=:en_us"; LANG="en_us"; are supported and installed in your system; [2 more lines] 
[11:11] <camer0ff> hyper_ch thats pretty much it.. i can send you the entire lot of info if you like?
[11:12] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: I remember 5.10 used to have dns issues with some routers, 6.06 fixed it all
[11:12] <BadBoy> how to start service in UBUNTU from command prompt?
[11:12] <orbin> coldsteal: when you boot off it, at the menu where you press enter to run the livecd, it has an option on the bottom for VGA by pressing a function key.  tried that?
[11:12] <Taime1> please help, im trying to get airodump to capture ivs but i keep getting errors
[11:12] <Shafto> BobPenguin, What was your original error?
[11:12] <camer0ff> Linux_Galore; cool... well we will see with the xubuntu 6.10 version :)
[11:12] <coldsteal> ok
[11:12] <velko> BobPenguin, the correct spelling is en_US (or even en_US.UTF-8)
[11:13] <velko> BobPenguin, and the locale should be installed of course
[11:13] <BadBoy> I don't know how to start a service from the command prompt in UBUNTU. plz help.
[11:13] <Rei-chan> BadBoy, /etc/init.d/<service name> start
[11:13] <gnomefreak> BadBoy: depends on the service
[11:13] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: please pastebin the content of your   /etc/resolv.conf   and  /etc/network/interfaces   file
[11:13] <Rei-chan> Badboy: You'll need to ls the /etc/init.d/ directory to figure out what the service name is. :)
[11:14] <BadBoy> thnx
[11:14] <Shafto> BobPenguin, Run 'dpkg-reconfigure locales'
[11:14] <Linux_Galore> camer0ff: 5.10 was very much an experimental release, lots of breakage
[11:14] <gnomefreak> Linux_Galore: no its not breezy was very stable
[11:14] <camer0ff> hyper_ch the 5.10 machine doesnt connect to the net..
[11:14] <gnomefreak> Linux_Galore: 6.10 maybe?
[11:15] <Linux_Galore> gnomefreak: I had piles of problems with 5.10, next to none with 6.06
[11:15] <camer0ff> hyper_ch i have tried ssh'ing in as well.. ot no luck
[11:15] <BobPenguin> thanls Shafto, I will try it now
[11:15] <milaks> Hi. When I try to run `sudo update-manager --help" I get this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14676/ although libpango is installed. I use Feisty Fawn, can someone tell me how to correct this?
[11:15] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: you have multiple computers so just trype from one on the other...
[11:15] <Linux_Galore> gnomefreak: most of the issues i had with 6,10 were because of a poor update manager setup
[11:15] <camer0ff> hyper_ch only one monitor too.. will check the interfaces file
[11:15] <gnomefreak> Linux_Galore: edgy was the "experimental" in some peoples eyes
[11:15] <hyper_ch> oh, one monitor...
[11:15] <hyper_ch> edgy run fine
[11:15] <hyper_ch> feisty runs better
[11:16] <Linux_Galore> Im on edgy now, it fine,  just dont update to edgy lol
[11:16] <Linux_Galore> do a fresh install
[11:16] <larson9999> Linux_Galore: have you been on strait through from yesterday?
[11:16] <Linux_Galore> larson9999: no
[11:16] <larson9999> :)
[11:17] <larson9999> i updated to edgy and didn't have any problems.  i must be the only one.
[11:17] <Linux_Galore> larson9999:  I decided my old kernel was all I need lol
[11:17] <locksey> hyper_ch: open command shell (start --> run --> cmd --> Enter) thanks, I am in a terminal.
[11:17] <Tetsuo> Hi, can 7.04 be updated incrementally or does one reinstall the system? :P :P
[11:18] <Linux_Galore> larson9999: s/I/it/
[11:18] <velko> milaks, do you have installed the python pango packages? i don't know the correct name
[11:18] <velko> milaks, try something like "apt-cache search py.*pango"
[11:19] <camer0ff> hyper_ch what am i looking for in the /etc/network/interfaces file/
[11:19] <camer0ff> ?
[11:19] <hyper_ch> just about anything :)
[11:19] <Linux_Galore> well I updated from 6.06 to 6.10. ended up with the old kernel but new drivers and gcc was broken in 101 ways
[11:19] <hyper_ch> locksey: I don't know what you do... I didn't tell you to do anything
[11:19] <larson9999> Linux_Galore: heck that upgrade went so well, i'm thinking of just upgrading to 7.04 too.  we'll see about that.  something tells me i'll be doing a fresh install shortly after.
[11:19] <camer0ff> hyper_ch damn :( i am not sure how to show you what is in it then
[11:20] <hyper_ch> camer0ff: write it down on a sheet... and then use the computer with the internet connection to pastebin it
[11:20] <camer0ff> damn
[11:20] <camer0ff> hyper_ch how can i enable ssh so i can connect to it?
[11:20] <larson9999> something must be horribly wrong.  i didn't get any spam at all over the weekend.
[11:20] <camer0ff> hyper_ch says connection refused
[11:21] <Linux_Galore> larson9999: Im so ronery
[11:21] <coldsteal> how do i check if my laptop has ati or nvidia cgaphics card?
[11:21] <locksey> hyper_ch: locksey: I don't know what you do... I didn't tell you to do anything ... ha ha hah ah
[11:21] <velko> coldsteal, lspci -v
[11:22] <coldsteal> ok
[11:22] <bef> Is anyone running Gimp 2.3.15 who can help me install?
[11:23] <hubert999> hay wahts the how to page to insiall the nvidia.run file?
[11:23] <stone123_> !info gimp edgy-backports
[11:23] <ubotu> Package gimp does not exist in edgy-backports
[11:23] <Kendreague> can someone please explain this: "sudo: timestamp too far in the future"
[11:24] <stone123_> Kendreague, search forums
[11:24] <MarkCh> hi, how do i type an ~n in openoffice.org word?
[11:24] <larson9999> Linux_Galore: i guess that counts
[11:24] <camer0ff> hyper_ch, Linux_Galore i think i might come back to this after i download the isos
[11:24] <gil> hi. I am looking for man pages for c libraray routines like gets(), fread(0, scanf(), etc. I am using Ubuntu 6.10. Thanks. Gil
[11:25] <camer0ff> hyper_ch Linux_Galore thank you for your help anyway..
[11:25] <milaks> velko: there's only python-hippocanvas !?
[11:25] <chriskk> does Ubuntu Server 6.10 support 4GB of RAM?
[11:25] <infidel> any one recommend a good agp video card?
[11:25] <velko> milaks, it does not look like pango...
[11:25] <milaks> velko: yes
[11:25] <chriskk> I'm thinking about setting up VMware server on the Ubuntu server
[11:25] <MarkCh> chriskk: if it's a 64-bit version it will support even more
[11:25] <milaks> velko: I was talking about search results
[11:25] <stone123_> chriskk, it does #ubuntu-server
[11:26] <Linux_Galore> !vmware
[11:26] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[11:26] <Taime1> i put my card into monitoring mode, how do i change that back?
[11:26] <chriskk> the machine is a bit old
[11:26] <milaks> velko: apt-cache search py.*pango
[11:26] <Kendreague> stone123_: Trust me, I would if I could.
[11:26] <smoo2> does ubuntu have a GUI for apache conf?
[11:26] <milaks> velko: gave that
[11:26] <stone123_> Kendreague, sudo -K
[11:26] <stone123_> Kendreague, date && sudo -K
[11:26] <chriskk> stone123: thanks!
[11:26] <Kendreague> stone123_: thanks.
[11:26] <Taime1> i put my card into monitoring mode, how do i change that back?
[11:27] <roxxy> can anyone assist me in setting a matrox vga card
[11:27] <milaks> velko: also searched like this: `apt-cache search pango|grep -i python` which gave the same result
[11:27] <stone123_> and if you need to sync clock use : ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com
[11:27] <stone123_> needs sudo i think
[11:27] <Kendreague> Now is it true that there is no ndiswrapper for PPC?
[11:28] <velko> milaks, open a terminal, type "python" in it and after that "import pango"
[11:28] <orbin> roxxy: setting what exactly?  what's the issue?
[11:28] <velko> milaks, if it does not issue an error it means that you pango install is ok
[11:28] <stone123_> Kendreague, ndiswrapper is for windows drivers
[11:29] <roxxy> i can't get to use my card the screen goes blank
[11:29] <Kendreague> stone123_: Right. So how would I go about installing drivers for wireless if I can't use it?
[11:29] <velko> milaks, if your pango install is ok, you are dealing with a bug in python-gtk or in update-manager. i'm not sure which one
[11:29] <stone123_> if you dont have native then use ethernet
[11:29] <Taime1> i put my card into monitoring mode, how do i change that back?
[11:29] <Daverocks> Kendreague: the problem is that the binary windows drivers that you need to install were only compiled for x86
[11:30] <Daverocks> Kendreague: presumably
[11:30] <roxxy> orbin: how do i get ubuntu to use the matrox card as default cause i also have an onboard card
[11:30] <milaks> velko: After I've typed `python` and then `import pango` I got this:
[11:30] <stone123_> Kendreague, and i realy dont care , as long as you buy wireless iwth proprietry drivers you aint supporting linux
[11:30] <milaks> >>> import pango
[11:30] <milaks> Traceback (most recent call last):
[11:30] <milaks>   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
[11:30] <milaks> ImportError: No module named pango
[11:30] <adrigen> hi
[11:30] <Kendreague> stone123_: Great help. How about I bought the damn wireless card BEFORE linux?
[11:30] <adrigen> anyone had any experience partitioning a mac for linux?
[11:30] <velko> milaks, so you have to find the package which implements pango for python
[11:30] <velko> milaks, but i don't know the exact name
[11:31] <screamo> spanish?
[11:31] <screamo> spanishh:o
[11:31] <Kendreague> stone123_: How about if you don't want to be constructive in helping someone get old hardware to work with a new operating system, then you don't bother talking
[11:31] <screamo> spanish
[11:31] <stone123_> Kendreague, what type of card?
[11:31] <velko> milaks, maybe something like python-gnome?
[11:31] <milaks> velko: I'm using Ubuntu Feisty Fawn where should I start...
[11:31] <Kendreague> stone123_: NetGear WG511v3
[11:31] <milaks> velko: aha let me look...
[11:31] <screamo> #ubuntu-es
[11:31] <stone123_> !wireless | Kendreague
[11:31] <ubotu> Kendreague: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:31] <Kendreague> stone123_: it's unsupported by Prism54 but according to my searching before the internet died I can use islsm
[11:31] <Daverocks> Kendreague: hm, i've used WG511v3 before with ndiswrapper, works great, but that was on x86
[11:31] <screamo> hey spanish?
[11:31] <hubert999> how do u install the nvida drivers .run file file?
[11:32] <screamo> roms in spanish?
[11:32] <adrigen> I've been trying in vain to install ubuntu on my ibook, and I just found out it needs a "bootstrap" partition. anyone heard of this?
[11:32] <screamo> :)
[11:32] <Grem> hi :) My feisty is taking a very long time to boot. the progress bar just sits in the +/- 35% for a long time. Where should I look to see what is taking so long to start?
[11:32] <Taime1> how do i get my wireless card out of rfmon mode?
[11:32] <Kendreague> adrigen: Create a partition the size that it instructs, and it should detect it automatically. It worked on my Powermac
[11:32] <blubbibla> hi, i installed ubuntu to my laptop. sound-out works for me, but pcspeakers dont seem to work at all. any ideas?
[11:32] <Daverocks> Taime1: iwconfig TheWirelessInterface mode Managed
[11:32] <Daverocks> Taime1: sudo if needed
[11:32] <roxxy> orbin: any ideas?
[11:33] <Taime1> thank yiou
[11:33] <phylocoeur> excuse me what's super
[11:33] <Taime1> you*
[11:33] <milaks> velko: "guile-gnome0-gtk" ??
[11:33] <velko> hubert999, i'm pretty sure there are install instructions on the nvidia site where you downloaded the file. what do you want more?
[11:33] <velko> milaks, nope
[11:33] <orbin> roxxy: i'm no expert but can you put your xorg.conf file on a a pastebin please?
[11:33] <adrigen> kendreague: where would I find these instructions?
[11:33] <velko> milaks, try looking for python-gnome
[11:33] <coldsteal> how do i fond the driver for my disk drive>
[11:33] <coldsteal> ?
[11:33] <Daverocks> Kendreague: hmm, netgear doesn't seem to make ppc drivers
[11:33] <Daverocks> Taime1: no problem
[11:34] <Taime1> actually, it says managed is not a recognized mode
[11:34] <Taime1> dangit
[11:34] <Daverocks> hubert999: chmod a+x whatever.run && ./whatever.run
[11:34] <Linux_Galore> ?? why would negear make PPC drivers
[11:34] <Daverocks> Taime1: hm, what card?
[11:34] <Taime1> sorry, unrecognized wireless request, to be exac
[11:34] <Taime1> intel prowireless
[11:34] <locksey> I spent most of yesterday trying to tweak  my MTU setting in /etc/network/interfaces, but cant make any sense of it. My Ip told me thats my prob, can someone walk me through please?
[11:34] <roxxy> am not at the machine right now but can u give me your email so that i can send it to you?
[11:35] <coldsteal> how do i fond the driver for my disk drive?
[11:35] <predaeus> Grem, probably run dmesg for the current boot output or look at /var/log/kern.log  /var/log/syslog  etc.  For Feisty related problems, also ask in #ubuntu+1 that is the developement support channel, since Feisty is still Beta.
[11:35] <Daverocks> Taime1: 2200? 3945? 2100?
[11:35] <Grem> thanks alot predaeus  :)
[11:35] <roxxy> orbin: am working from a cybercafe
[11:35] <hyper_ch> hmmm, debian 4.0 Xfce CD :)
[11:35] <Taime1> 2200
[11:35] <TraceGreen> Hello, are there any linux client for real time communcation?
[11:35] <coldsteal> how do i fond the driver for my disk drive?
[11:35] <orbin> roxxy: so you're not on the machine?
[11:35] <coldsteal> *find
[11:35] <trenton> damnit, ok, i can't play dvd's on here, i have all the multimedia codecs installed and have ran that install-css.sh thing. mplayer and totem refuses to play them...error for totem : Totem could not play 'dvd:///media/cdrom0'. for mplayer: Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device. ....what do I need to do to get this to work?
[11:35] <Taime1> blah, it took
[11:35] <roxxy> orbin: yes
[11:35] <velko> TraceGreen, ekiga?
[11:35] <coldsteal> how do i find the driver for my disk drive?
[11:35] <Daverocks> Taime1: i have the same card
[11:36] <coldsteal> ANYONE
[11:36] <Daverocks> Taime1: i just have kismet put it into and take it out of rfmon :P
[11:36] <Linux_Galore> locksey: the mtu is set by the ppp protocol and that defined by your modem and server not the computer
[11:36] <velko> TraceGreen, it depends on what you understand under "real time communication". irc is real time too :-)
[11:36] <Kendreague> adrigen: when the install tells you to make a bootstrap partition, it tells you how big to make it
[11:36] <Taime1> i cant get airodump to capture ivs
[11:36] <milaks> velko: Pyhton && Gnome: "glade-gnome"?
[11:36] <milaks> velko: Pyhton && Gnome: "glade-gnome-2"?
[11:36] <orbin> roxxy: not following you.  so you can't pastebin the file?
[11:36] <TraceGreen> velko, audio
[11:36] <Kendreague> Daverocks: No, they don't.
[11:37] <Daverocks> coldsteal: the driver "for your disk drive"? as in HDD?
[11:37] <coldsteal> yes
[11:37] <velko> milaks, what gives "apt-cache search python | grep gnome" ?
[11:37] <coldsteal> it wasnt detected
[11:37] <coldsteal> in the install
[11:37] <trenton> anybody?
[11:37] <velko> milaks, glade is not what you need for pango
[11:37] <TraceGreen> velko, I know ekiga use h.323/sip, does it support real time communcation?
[11:37] <roxxy> orbin: yes, the computer is at home and i am at work and i don't have an internet connection at home
[11:38] <Daverocks> Kendreague: so then if there are no PPC drivers from netgear, and there are no PPC drivers anywhere else, then ndiswrapper can't really help you
[11:38] <predaeus> trenton, did you try ogle?
[11:38] <velko> TraceGreen, how do you define real time communication?
[11:38] <trenton> predaeus, is that yet another player?
[11:38] <Thug-N-Me> need help converting mpeg vido file to avi (xvid)
[11:38] <velko> TraceGreen, with ekiga you have video and audio in real time
[11:38] <coldsteal> Daverocks: yes it want detected in the install
[11:38] <Kendreague> Daverocks: No. But, can you tell me anything about ISLSM? I can't exactly do any HTTP browsing right now
[11:38] <predaeus> trenton, yes for dvds
[11:39] <locksey>  Linux_Galore: thanks again, I am still lost, should I ring my isp again.?
[11:39] <TraceGreen> velko, Windows have standand real time communcation protocal and have such samples. so i want to have certain software in linux to communcation with windows
[11:39] <milaks> velko: with `apt-cache search python | grep -i gnome" I got this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14686/
[11:39] <trenton> predaeus, I'd rather just get mplayer and totem to work on it first...actually, i'd just like to get mplayer to work, and find out some way to uninstall totem (since I don't use it)
[11:39] <Daverocks> Kendreague: hm, i never tried native prism drivers
[11:39] <Shafto> trenton, Use synaptic
[11:39] <TraceGreen> velko, I think i can try to use ekiga. thanks!
[11:40] <orbin> roxxy: one sec
[11:40] <Kendreague> Daverocks: Ah okay then. I asked in #prism54 but it's very dead in there
[11:40] <Linux_Galore> locksey: no,  how it works is your modem queries the isp via the ppp protocol for the default mtu, the computer than asks the modem for the default mtu
[11:40] <predaeus> trenton, did you install libdvdcss2 I think I needed that to get dvds working
[11:40] <roxxy> orbin:ok
[11:40] <predaeus> !dvd > trenton
[11:40] <velko> TraceGreen, my question was: how do you expect to communicate? typing text? speaking? seeing your partner while speaking?
[11:40] <trenton> preaction, i have libdvdread3 installed, and ran the install-css.sh thing in the docs for it, which i do believe installs libdvdcss2
[11:41] <Linux_Galore> locksey: if you having mtu problems it wont be the ISP its your setup in general
[11:41] <preaction> trenton: that's nice. what does that have to do with me?
[11:41] <milaks> velko: have you looked at the list, do you recognize any suitable package?
[11:41] <milaks> velko: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14686/
[11:41] <trenton> preaction, sorry, that was meant for predaeus
[11:41] <velko> milaks, try installing python-gnome2 and python-gnome2-extras. and repeat the test for pango using the interactive python console
[11:41] <orbin> roxxy: here's my xorg.conf file: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14687/
[11:41] <predaeus> :-)
[11:42] <predaeus> trenton, did you get the extra codecs?
[11:42] <orbin> roxxy: see line 99?  that's my video card.
[11:42] <orbin> roxxy: you may possibly have two device entries
[11:42] <milaks> velko: Both of them are already installed!?
[11:42] <locksey> Linux_Galore: ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol

[11:43] <orbin> roxxy: now see line 114?
[11:43] <trenton> predaeus, yep, all the ones it listed in the desktop docs on ubuntu website
[11:43] <milaks> velko: should I try `dpkg-reconfigure` on them Veljko?
[11:43] <predaeus> trenton, try running mplayer from a terminal like "mplayer -vo x11 -ao oss path_to_dvd"
[11:43] <trenton> ok
[11:43] <orbin> roxxy: that's telling it to use thte video card device with that identifier
[11:43] <orbin> roxxy: i.e. my radeon xpress
[11:43] <velko> milaks, this will help only if they are not properly installed (e.g. half configured)
[11:44] <milaks> velko: any suggestions now?
[11:44] <orbin> roxxy: double check that your Screen entry specifies to use the matrox card as the device
[11:44] <predaeus> trenton, you might need to change the -vo or -ao options for your system. It's the video out and audio out option. see "man mplayer" (quit with q). the video option reported the error in the message you posted first.
[11:44] <velko> milaks, you have to find out which python package includes pango and install it
[11:44] <velko> milaks, try the -dev packages
[11:45] <Linux_Galore> locksey: ask the ISP what the default is, it looks all normal to me, then check that your modems settings are correct
[11:45] <stone123_> predaeus, i dont think oss is installed by default in ubuntu
[11:45] <DivineLight> any one knows where we can place commands that execute automatically at startup?
[11:45] <trenton> predaeus, ahh i see, it says failed to load the win32 loadlibrary...hrm, lemme try installing the win32 codec too
[11:45] <orbin> roxxy: if it doesn't, you may need to edit that line (114) to point to the matroxcard.  ... make sure you backup the xorg.conf file before you make any changes.
[11:45] <KDan> ok... i managed to uninstall all the gnome leftovers by installing the "xubuntu-desktop" package, and now the sound doesn't work anymore... :-( i don't recall uninstalling anything sound-related...
[11:45] <KDan> anyone got a starting point for me to follow to investigation why the sound is gone?
[11:46] <orbin> roxxy: made sense?
[11:46] <Linux_Galore> locksey: 1500 is the staock standard setting for an ethernet mtu
[11:46] <milaks> velko: libpango1.0-dev is also already installed
[11:46] <KDan> (alsa driver is still there, cables are plugged in)
[11:46] <predaeus> stone123_, I have no idea. I am using alsa but mplayer doesn't like it with me so I always use -ao oss with it.
[11:46] <velko> milaks, you have to be able to load pango in python. libpango is a C library
[11:46] <predaeus> trenton, ok
[11:46] <stone123_> KDan, speaker-test
[11:46] <KDan> stone123_: cheers
[11:47] <stone123_> if you dont have install alsa-tools or something like that
[11:47] <KDan> i have it, but it's not outputting any soudn at the moment
[11:48] <stone123_> KDan, alsamixer and unmute if it is (MM)
[11:48] <stone123_> with m key
[11:48] <velko> KDan, install everything which has alsa in its name
[11:48] <napsy_> Hi. Is there a front-end for .deb package building for gnome?
[11:49] <predaeus> locksey, please use the pastebin next time you paste more than about 3 lines. If there is a lot of traffic to a channel it is very annoying if people post huge outputs from programs or the like. :-)
[11:49] <velko> napsy_, i'm no aware of no one
[11:49] <locksey> Linux_Galore: thanks again, you are referring to my modutils, or networking directories?
[11:50] <velko> napsy_, bad wording :-) i'm not aware of any. i don't think there is any available
[11:50] <owen1> is there a way to keep the state of the bash after shut-down?
[11:50] <napsy_> ok
[11:50] <velko> owen1, what do you mean by that?
[11:50] <locksey> predaeus: sorry, just its my 2nd day here and I still lost.
[11:51] <predaeus> locksey, it's ok
[11:51] <napsy_> I'm trying to build  a DEB but debuild tells "parsechangelog/debian: error: badly formatted heading line"
[11:51] <napsy_> is there a sample changelog where
[11:51] <predaeus> locksey, I had to learn the hard way too *g*
[11:51] <roxxy> orbin: let me look at it and then let u know
[11:51] <locksey> predaeus: should I post for help on the paste bin instead of here, ?
[11:51] <milaks> velko: hereis python-pango.rpm for Fedora I guess, but I cannot find anywhere else package (source) named "python-pango"
[11:51] <velko> napsy_, a lot. every deb package has a changelog. just download any and study it
[11:51] <owen1> velko: i have a few tabs in my bash. one for mysql, one for VIM etc. i want to shut down the computer and when starting it to seee all my tabs and the stuff i did.
[11:52] <predaeus> !paste > locksey
[11:52] <Fogil> DivineLight : Have you tried "gnome-session-properties"?
[11:52] <naked> hey ya'll!
[11:52] <predaeus> locksey, read the message of ubotu, pastebin is a tool to paste large texts without flooding the channel.
[11:52] <naked> am hoping i have tracked my way to the right room, concerning do a dual boot install of Ubuntu?
[11:52] <[BTF] Chm0d> morning guys is there a program that allows you to have different wallpaper for each desktop having dual monitors?
[11:53] <velko> milaks, don't mess with packages for other package managers. try installling the -dev packages
[11:53] <SlimeyPete> naked: yes, this is the right channel
[11:53] <DivineLight> Fogil: is it a command? no
[11:53] <milaks> velko: No, I didn't even wanted to, I've just mentioned that, that's the only place where I've found out about that name of package.
[11:54] <velko> owen1, i see - you mean gnome-terminal probably? because bash does not have tabs at all. i don't know the answer for this question. i use xterm
[11:54] <milaks> velko: and for -dev packages, some are already installed, which development package do you think?
[11:54] <velko> milaks, did you tried my suggestion with the -dev packages?
[11:54] <Fogil> Try it at console (or go to Sistem_Preferences_Sessions, it is the same thing) ;-)
[11:54] <milaks> velko: exactly what package?
[11:54] <owen1> velko: yea, i ment gnome-terminal..
[11:55] <velko> milaks,  python-gnome2-dev for example?
[11:55] <KDan> thanks all - the volume was both muted and turned down to 0 on everything in the alsa mixer
[11:55] <KDan> that's what was wrong
[11:55] <naked> anyway, I have a fully functional WinXP and Vista system running, though without a boot manager, and am wanting to install Ubuntu too... though with previous experience of doing this, i have lost my option of booting windows, so just wanted to hear what the propper steps are for installing Ubuntu after Windows is already installed, and making it boot propper, either with GRUB or LILO or whatever Ubuntu comes with these days) ;)
[11:55] <BadBoy> I have ftp (client) and ftpd-ssl (ftp server) installed. but how to connect with the server? How to start ftp server?
[11:55] <locksey> Linux_Galore: thats my setting 1500, any ideas where I might go to get advice on how to upload small, files, I been going around in circles for a month, dont want to break my ubuntu for no reason.
[11:56] <velko> owen1, sorry that i can't help you. you may repeat your question for the others though
[11:56] <DivineLight> Fogil: ok thanks, I just want to run gdesklets daemon at startup. isn't there any other way?
[11:57] <BadBoy> I have ftp (client) and ftpd-ssl (ftp server) installed. but how to connect with the server? How to start ftp server?
[11:57] <owen1> how can i keep the state of the gnome-terminal after the computer restarts?
[11:57] <milaks> velko: here I'll try that now...
[11:57] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: did you get my question back there?
[11:57] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: am reading it now
[11:57] <hubert999> hay when i type "sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9755-pkg1.run" it says njo such file or directory, how do i tell it to go to the wright directory
[11:57] <locksey> predaeus: !paste > locksey , I dont know what to paste, but thanks for the message.
[11:58] <Fogil> DivineLight : I don't know of any other method, sorry =)
[11:58] <stone123_> BadBoy, is that sftp ?
[11:58] <trenton> predaeus, nope, so what do i need to do with the -vo option?
[11:58] <DivineLight> Fogil: k, thanks
[11:58] <velko> hubert999, change the directory to the one where the file is located. use "cd my/dir/name" for that
[11:58] <IdleOne> hubert999, if the file is on your Desktop type cd Desktop then the command
[11:58] <BadBoy> no its ftp
[11:58] <cypher1> is not frame buffer enabled by default when ubuntu boots up ?
[11:59] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: It should just work - Ubuntu should recognise your existing Windows installs and provide the option of booting into them when you start the pc. *However* I find that on my systems, I have to alter both my grub.conf and my Windows boot.ini files before it will work.
[11:59] <stone123_> BadBoy, yeah i think its  sftp
[11:59] <stone123_> !sftp
[11:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sftp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:59] <BadBoy> well then please help in sftp
[11:59] <phylocoeur> #unbuntu fr
[12:00] <screamo> x_x
[12:00] <IdleOne> phylocoeur, /join #ubuntu-fr
[12:00] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: okay, so when I am installing, and the installions comes to the "mbr" or boot part of it, what would be the propper choise?
[12:00] <stone123_> BadBoy, boy its just regular ftp on diferent port you can use gftp to connect
[12:00] <velko> BadBoy, what is your question?
[12:00] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: ... boot option part of the installion that is...
[12:00] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: whack it in the mbr, if I were you. You ideally wanna use Grub as your boot manager, rather than the MS one, because the MS one doesn't play nice with non-MS Oses
[12:00] <tmske> hi, how can I check which jre eclipse is using?
[12:01] <stone123_> BadBoy, ser@server:22
[12:01] <h3x0r_> Hey i have a graphics card and i just installed ubuntu just wondering if i need to set it up or it automatically adjusts as in do i need to install drivers?
[12:01] <BadBoy> I have ftp and ftpd-ssl installed in my ubuntu. But i can't use it . I don't know how to start ftp server
[12:01] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: one it's installed, if you have trouble booting windows then try altering the HD numbers in your grub.conf (then running grub-install), and/or your Windows boot.ini (which you can access using the linux-3g driver)
[12:01] <adrigen> Kendreague: sorry dude, I was trying something out. I was never prompted to make a bootstrap partition, I've only found out about it from the net.
[12:02] <milaks> velko: installed what you proposed, still doesn't work.
[12:02] <predaeus> trenton, the "!" commands go to the channel's bot "ubotu" who can answer prepared questions   the > should send the answer to you as a private message. No need to change the -vo option if a video runs but it is just for display not for selecting the codec or sometning like that. I have no idea, probably still try Ogle since that was the only player I could get DVDs to run on. (probably the only one, I don't remember)
[12:02] <IdleOne> tmske, you want to know what java versions you are running? type java version in terminal
[12:02] <adrigen> I'm in mac-fdisk now, not quite sure what I'm doing
[12:02] <EkToBoT> morning
[12:02] <EkToBoT> does anyone know why when i connect to efnet it now askd to install ident?
[12:02] <Rooy> h3x0r_: for NVIDIA cards, there are proprietary driver if you need 3D acceleration
[12:02] <JacktheHomeless> Quick question before i go to work
[12:02] <predaeus> trenton, sorry I mixed messages
[12:02] <adrigen> anyone used mac-fdisk?
[12:02] <rico> when I turn on the desktop effects I can't see anymore the borders of the windows... ?!
[12:02] <Kendreague> adrigen: You no doubt want to keep Mac OS X AND Ubuntu, right?
[12:02] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: - yes i know this much, also Grub does the change-boot thing - okay, so in effect, you are telling me, to just run thru the installation, and have it put the boot info in the mbr of and it should figure "most of it" out by itself
[12:02] <JacktheHomeless> is there anyway to extract multiple archives all in one go
[12:02] <stefg> h3x0r_: a lot of video adapters are auto-detected, although you sometimes need to make adjustments with the resolution. What video do you have?
[12:02] <SoulChild> Hey all,... i downloaded a package how do i install it? Run make && make install in terminal ?
[12:02] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: because the efnet admins have reconfigured the server so that it requires an identd to be running?
[12:02] <JacktheHomeless> i have about 100 of just pictures and id like to get them all unzipped
[12:03] <predaeus> !paste | locksey (just for next time)
[12:03] <ubotu> locksey (just for next time): 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)
[12:03] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: yep. If you're lucky it might even figure *all* of it out - you never know ;)
[12:03] <Rooy> h3x0r_: i think there're free (as in freedom) ATI with 3D accel, just can't put a name to it
[12:03] <pwuertz> hi... I want to delete some keys I added in gconf... how can I do that? gconf-editor does not support this operation
[12:03] <velko> milaks, as i already mentioned. i don't know the exact name of the package. but your goal is to find the package which implements pango for python. so that you are able to "import pango" from the interactive python console
[12:03] <tmske> IdleOne, I know that, but I have set /etc/eclipse/java_home, and want to check if it worked
[12:03] <hubert999> velko: no its saying nvidia-instaler must be run as root
[12:03] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: have they done this yesturday?

[12:03] <velko> hubert999, sudo sh NVIDIA.run
[12:03] <trenton> hrm, ok. so how do i set the default player for dvds?
[12:03] <h3x0r_> stefg: MSI NX7600GT 256MB RAM
[12:03] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: no idea, sorry - but if it's asking for an ident then there's been a change to the server config at some point.
[12:03] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete:  - okay, I'll give it a go... though I might be back to haunt you later on, if it decides not to play nice
[12:04] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: ok, np
[12:04] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: thanks
[12:04] <milaks> velko: thanks for your effort so far, but honestly that doesn't help me at all.
[12:04] <stefg> h3x0r_: so this looks like an Nvidia-chipset, isn't it?
[12:04] <Kendreague> adrigen: I can help you with installing Ubuntu, but what kind of ibook do you have? Is it New or Oldworld (Oldworld would be the old coloured iBooks)
[12:04] <h3x0r_> yes
[12:04] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: what is ident
[12:04] <velko> milaks, sorry

[12:04] <rico> when I turn on the desktop effects I can't see anymore the borders of the windows... ?!
[12:04] <Zaggynl> !envy
[12:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about envy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:04] <Zaggynl> ?
[12:04] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: - I have used ubuntu before, but am still rather a newb in that respect, as i have otherwise played more exclusively with Win32 and BeOS/Zeta
[12:04] <SlimeyPete> rico: install beryl-manager and Emerald
[12:04] <JacktheHomeless> Is there any way to extract more than one .zip archive all in one go? I have about 100 i need extracted and dont want to do it one by one.
[12:05] <rico> k
[12:05] <SlimeyPete> rico: Emerald does the window decorations
[12:05] <rico> thx
[12:05] <stefg> h3x0r_: or use Feisty in a week.... all automated there :-)
[12:05] <roxxy> orbin: what about installing the drivers?
[12:05] <SlimeyPete> rico: if Emerald doesn't get laoded automatically you can use the Beryl Manager to force it to load
[12:05] <IdleOne> EkToBoT, there are several different "ident" servers in synaptic. search and install one
[12:05] <velko> milaks, just ask you question again. maybe someone else could help you?
[12:05] <hubert999> velko: ok now its saying error unable to fin system utility 'ld'; make sure pakage 'binutils' is installed, if binutils is not install check the 'lc' is in your path
[12:06] <velko> hubert999, sudo apt-get install binutils
[12:06] <h3x0r_> stefg: With Feisty does it automatically install the drivers  or does it just detect the card and install it
[12:06] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete:  - would you foresee any difficulties if I was to install Ubuntu on the second partition of my "ide1"`?
[12:06] <Kendreague> adrigen: Are you there? What configuration are you after?
[12:06] <velko> hubert999, or even better "sudo apt-get install gcc"
[12:06] <Zues_62> hey how do i give permisions to a drive
[12:07] <hubert999> velko: sry to late went with the first
[12:07] <Zues_62> does anyone know how to set the permisions
[12:07] <IdleOne> hubert999, have you install the build-essential package yet? if not you should
[12:07] <Tube|> Zues_62: man chmod
[12:07] <Zues_62> so all groups can access them
[12:07] <Zues_62> aye
[12:07] <stefg> h3x0r_: all it needs in feisty is to click a checkbox ( Yes , i wan't the proprietary, non-free, Drivers).. tha'ts it
[12:07] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: sorry for being so nagging - just trying to line up all of my ducks before i start shooting
[12:07] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: none that would be insurmountable.
[12:07] <velko> hubert999, i guess you'll have to install gcc also anyway :-)
[12:07] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: np
[12:08] <IdleOne> velko, gcc is included in build-essential
[12:08] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: - thanks a bunch - see you later mayhaps
[12:08] <velko> IdleOne, thank you
[12:08] <h3x0r_> stefg: Thanks
[12:08] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: at the very least you should end up with a bootable Linux installation and these days with the magic of ntfs-3g you have access to both your grub and Windows configs so most problems should be easily solvable
[12:08] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: kk
[12:08] <EkToBoT> is there anything in synaptic that will let me acess my harddrive with windows on it???
[12:08] <velko> IdleOne, the info will be more interesting for hubert999
[12:08] <Zues_62> what is the comand for setting permisions so all groups can access a drive
[12:08] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: yes, linux-3g
[12:08] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: it's in the feisty repos, not sure about the Edgy/Dapper ones
[12:09] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: ta
[12:09] <orbin> roxxy: i'm not familiar with matrox cards sorry.
[12:09] <Zues_62> what is the comand guys
[12:09] <IdleOne> velko, I gave hubert999 the info also giving it to you so you know because you seem to be helping him
[12:09] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: chmod a+r <folder> will give everyone access to that folder
[12:09] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: a+rwx will give full access
[12:09] <odium> Where can I get alsaconfig?
[12:09] <hubert999> idleone & velko: yeah i have no idea what the base pakage is lol
[12:10] <Zues_62> how do i do that slim
[12:10] <velko> IdleOne, thank you. but i guess i'll forget it until the next time i need it :-)
[12:10] <IdleOne> !info build-essential | velko hubert999
[12:10] <ubotu> velko hubert999: build-essential: informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.3 (edgy), package size 6 kB, installed size 48 kB
[12:10] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: in a terminal. Do a chmod -R a+r on the mount point of the drive (usually it'll be mounted in /media if it's a secondary drive/partition)
[12:10] <trenton> predaeus, aha, it works fine in vlc ....
[12:11] <trenton> predaeus, thanks for the help
[12:11] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: you can probably use the gnome file manager to do it too but I have old habits ;)
[12:11] <jin_> 
[12:11] <hubert999> Idleone: whaaa
[12:11] <velko> hubert999, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:11] <Zues_62> ya that worked not
[12:11] <predaeus> trenton, fine, I like vlc best. But totally forgot about it with the dvd topic since ogle was the only one that worked then. *g* sorry. but good to hear.
[12:11] <Zues_62> slim it doesnt work
[12:11] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: how do you mean? Are you getting an error?
[12:12] <hubert999> velko: TY geez lynix for humans my ass ahha
[12:12] <Zues_62> directory does not excist slim

[12:12] <telos> Hi, i have kinda problem. When i want to install Ubuntu 6.10, after sometime window pop up "The X Server is now disabled. Restart GDM when it is configured correctly." I have GF8800GTS. Anyone have ideas how to get it solved?
[12:12] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: i dont think i have the repository as i cant find linux-3g
[12:12] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: well... then you're choosing the wrong directory... or else your filesystem is screwed
[12:12] <velko> hubert999, you can do this using synaptic too. it's just easier for me to show you the command line version
[12:12] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: try enabling the backports repository in Synaptic, maybe it's in there
[12:12] <Zues_62> i just formated the drive tho SLim
[12:12] <odium> Where can I get alsaconfig?
[12:12] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: k
[12:13] <hubert999> yeah
[12:13] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: what's the exact command you are running?
[12:13] <hubert999> velko: yeah terminal is alot easyier
[12:13] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: could you paste it here please?
[12:13] <Rooy> telos: it will give you a log in prompt, so you can login and execute "sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx"
[12:13] <Zues_62> ok
[12:13] <Zues_62> chmod -R a+r media/UsbDisk
[12:13] <Zues_62> chmod: cannot access `media/UsbDisk': No such file or directory

[12:14] <dazjorz> Hi
[12:14] <dazjorz> Doesn't Ubuntu have a package PHP for lighttpd?
[12:14] <twiztr> Question, I have a linux box in my room, and I just put an old pent3 nix box in the living room. I have a hub I got from my dads work, and not sure how I am going to run a wire from my room to the living room.
[12:14] <velko> hubert999, and please mind you language on public forums. yes?
[12:14] <[WaZ] > !upgrade > pfff_
[12:14] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: don't mean to patronise but are you sure you have a directory called media/UsbDisk?
[12:14] <Zues_62> yep
[12:14] <hubert999> velko:k
[12:14] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: NTFS-3g is that what im looking for???
[12:15] <DreamThief> can anyone inhere tell me if it's normal that compiling kiba-dock takes very much time?
[12:15] <PriceChild> Zues_62, its /media/ NOT media/
[12:15] <deus_> how can i stop the autohide of cairo-dock??
[12:15] <SlimeyPete> PriceChild: aha, well noticed
[12:15] <telos> rooy after that window I just see black screen
[12:15] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: yep
[12:15] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: it's a kernel module
[12:15] <MeTuSaLiX> anyone able to give me some pointers on how to get my gfx up and running?
[12:15] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: thanks dood
[12:15] <Rooy> telos: press enter once, does it give you a login prompt?
[12:16] <telos> rooy: well ubuntu isnt installed so i don't think there will be any login prompt
[12:16] <Zues_62> it only set it to read Slim
[12:17] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: yup. As I say, for full access use a+rwx instead.
[12:17] <locksey> predaeus: !paste | locksey (just for next time)(20:15:50) locksey: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14690/
[12:17] <locksey> (20:15:51) ubotu: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[12:17] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: I told you a+r first because I didn't want to trick you into accidentally giving write access, incase you didn't want that to happen, sorry
[12:17] <telos> rooy: i heard there is a combination of few keys so I can get to command line, but I don't know if it will help
[12:18] <doomster> yo, anybody here running a G4 mac mini with a DVI monitor attached? I can't seem to get it to drive my display...
[12:18] <Zues_62> i did what u just said slim and it is still READ
[12:18] <Rooy> telos: no, after that message "restart x after configured", you will get a login prompt, the shortcuts ctrl-alt-f# only work when you are using graphical UI
[12:18] <hubert999> velko:no its saying im runing an x server 8s
[12:19] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: hmm, that's odd. "chmod -R a+rwx /media/UsbDisk" should give everyone full access.
[12:19] <velko> hubert999, well than you have to stop the x server and do this without gui. and before you thank me, thank nvidia for this one :-)
[12:19] <telos> rooy after that message i'm not getting anything just black screen
[12:19] <telos> as i said
[12:20] <Zues_62> well its not slim so what other comand can i use that will actualy work
[12:20] <hubert999> velko: this is going to be bad isnt i
[12:21] <velko> hubert999, i'm wondering why don't you use the nvidia driver included with ubuntu? why you opted for the driver from the nvidia site anyway?
[12:21] <Zues_62> does anyone else know how to set the permisions so i have full write read permision
[12:21] <SlimeyPete> Zues_62: this may be a mounting issue rather than a permissions one. Type "mount" and check that it's been mounted rw.
[12:21] <velko> hubert999, look in synaptic for nvidia
[12:21] <Kendreague> doomster: What kind of graphics card is in that Mini?
[12:21] <hubert999> velko:the rezolution on the screen only goes up to 1024*1024
[12:22] <doomster> ATI radeon 9200, Kendreague.
[12:22] <Kendreague> doomster: Hold on, I'm doing some research on it, I'll let you know about your DVI problem. What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[12:22] <velko> hubert999, there are two drivers for nvidia cards included: the free driver named "nv" and the nvidia driver named "nvidia".
[12:22] <velko> hubert999, if you want the latter you have to look for something like nvidia-kernel or so
[12:23] <stroogle> howdy folks
[12:23] <doomster> Kendreague, 6.10, I think (where would I look?)
[12:23] <Kendreague> doomster: Well, what's the codename? 6.10 should be Edgy Eft
[12:23] <telos> rooy so you think there is some solution?
[12:24] <Rooy> telos: the free driver in feisty fawn can do 2d graphic with that line, but i don't know why the current driver can't even display a login prompt
[12:24] <IdleOne> doomster, type lsb_release -a to get version of ubuntu
[12:24] <stroogle> using dapper, getting lamp set up, i want to configure httpd.conf with a documentroot of my choosing, but it seems to be truncated, am i editing the right place?
[12:24] <velko> !nvidia | hubert999
[12:24] <ubotu> hubert999: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:24] <stefg> doomster: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1488378&postcount=20 could be useful

[12:25] <Aaronfromchina> hi....
[12:25] <Aaronfromchina> :)
[12:26] <Rooy> telos: i'm digging around on http://ubuntuforums.org
[12:26] <Kendreague> doomster: Are you using the LiveCD or the alternate CD?
[12:26] <Aaronfromchina> I can use xchat, gaim, and firefox can access guadian.co.uk, but can't access my.opera.com, bbc.co.uk. What's the problem?
[12:26] <telos> rooy look at pms
[12:27] <velko> Aaronfromchina, are you really in china? this may explain it but i'm not sure...
[12:27] <stroogle> is /etc/apache2/httpd.conf where i should set the documentroot for apache?
[12:27] <doomster> Kendreague: I installed it from a live CD.
[12:27] <Kendreague> doomster: So when you started the Live CD, did X and Gnome come up?
[12:27] <hubert999> velko: ok so ive searched the synaaptic, ok there nvdia-kernal-common and another called source
[12:28] <doomster> stefg: thanx, but that tutorial explicitly says 9500 or later.
[12:28] <hubert999> velko: the common one is already installed
[12:28] <equilibri1> hi, does anybody have any experience in setting up Rosegarden?
[12:28] <Zues_62> Slim i just needed a remount ty for ur help
[12:28] <doomster> Kendreague: interesting point, haven't tried that. I installed with a small VGA attached and then wanted to switch to a bigger DVI.
[12:28] <stroogle> anyone?
[12:28] <velko> hubert999, did you looked at the link? i'll ask the bot to repeat it for you:
[12:28] <Aaronfromchina> velko, yes, I'm in China (China often does this ugly thing :). but this time my Chinese friend can open my.opera.com

[12:29] <Plutonium> hi i installed  ubuntu and the browser doesn t dispaly correctly the webpages can anyone helps?
[12:29] <doomster> brb, i'll try and see if it works with the live CD, Kendreague.
[12:29] <ferronica> what is medi buntu
[12:30] <Kendreague> stefg: I think you should go to your local Apple store and buy one right now =P
[12:30] <ferronica> when i update i got errors
[12:30] <SS2> how can it be that, the meta packet doesn't link to X?
[12:30] <SS2> just installed over base, and it didn't install X
[12:30] <ompaul> http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/   <<-- ferronica read that
[12:30] <velko> Plutonium, you know that such a broad question cannot be answered, right?
[12:30] <predaeus> Aaronfromchina, probably it is the DNS. Ask your friend to ping my.opera.com, then let him give you the ip of that address and try that in your browser.
[12:31] <ferronica> ompaul: ok got it
[12:31] <stefg> Kendreague: Nope, i just wait until the first hardware snobs are selling theirs 2nd hand :-). I don't want OSX, just the box :-o
[12:31] <Plutonium> velko : no
[12:31] <Plutonium> velko : why
[12:31] <Aaronfromchina> preaction, OK. I'll try :) thanks very much.
[12:31] <Kendreague> stefg: no, I know. I'd have Ubuntu on all my macs now, except A) This one isn't mine, and B) I just don't have the time to re-partition
[12:31] <stroogle> frustrated - no one talks to me...:(
[12:31] <chrismhampson> hi. how do you rename desktop mounted disk icons to something more meaningful than disk-1?
[12:32] <velko> Plutonium, from your question is clear that you have a problem but not what is the problem specificaly
[12:32] <preaction> Aaronfromchina: you're welcome. and be sure to thank my buddy predaeus.

[12:34] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: ihave got it from synaptic

[12:35] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: no system tools
[12:36] <SlimeyPete> how odd. OK, open a terminal and run ntfs-config from there (you may need to use sudo, I forget)
[12:36] <thyazide> ok who's dick do i have to suck to increse my resolution in festy, the in built res switcher lets me got to 1024x768, i tryed editing in my settings directly into the xorg.conf and it did nothing after rebooting
[12:36] <EkToBoT> sudo ntfs-config?
[12:36] <thyazide> attempting to get to 1280x1024

[12:37] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: aha! Yes, sorry - ntfs-config is in its own package (called "ntfs-config"!) :)
[12:37] <SlimeyPete> install that.
[12:37] <Rei-chan> Anyone know if nvu is ready for prime time?
[12:37] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: ? how
[12:37] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: via synaptic
[12:37] <stefg> thyazide: feisty support in #ubuntu+1, but only in a decent language
[12:38] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: im really sory i dont understand
[12:38] <EkToBoT> :)
[12:38] <thyazide> great... nvidia-settings just made my mouse cursor disappear
[12:38] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: go to synaptic and search for "ntfs config". There is a package called "ntfs-config" which you need to install.
[12:39] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: i get ya now

[12:40] <Kendreague> Do you get the text bootup?

[12:40] <thyazide> ok cursor is back... guess i shouldnt mess with nvidia-settings anymore
[12:40] <Kendreague> Doomster: do you get the text startup?
[12:40] <doomster> No.
[12:40] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: im doomed
[12:40] <Kendreague> doomster: so after you select the CD as your startup disk, you just get nothing from that point?
[12:41] <Gabz> SlimeyPete:  i didn't think ntfs-config was in the standard ubuntu repo
[12:41] <thyazide> ohh nice, it works this time
[12:41] <thyazide> ./dance
[12:41] <doomster> Kendreague, I turn on the machine, press C to boot from CD and never get anything at all on the display
[12:41] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: hrm. Maybe the config tool is only in Feisty then.
[12:41] <EkToBoT> Gabz: i enabled backdoor to get it
[12:41] <pari`> hello, I want to alocate some more space to / partition, using gparted. Any ideas how to do that?

[12:41] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: do you also have universe/multiverse installed? it might be in there.
[12:42] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: i will check
[12:42] <Kendreague> doomster: I know on this eMac it won't pick up the CD properly and just sits at a black screen until I restart it
[12:42] <doomster> Kendreague, what would the Option key be?
[12:42] <thyazide> oy. so nice having things work...
[12:42] <doomster> Kendreague, I mean on a non-apple keyboard
[12:42] <Panterh3art> is velko here ?
[12:43] <Kendreague> Doomster: hold on let me check
[12:43] <livenicely_> when i play .dat file in kaffine i can hear sound but only movie
[12:43] <ttrsh> how do i update my LD_LIBRARY_PATH?
[12:43] <velko> Panterh3art, yep
[12:43] <velko> Panterh3art, hi
[12:43] <Panterh3art> hi velko
[12:43] <IdleOne> doomster, the windows key perhaps?
[12:43] <livenicely_> when i play .dat file in kaffine i cant hear sound but only movie
[12:43] <Panterh3art> velko ure still in #velko ?
[12:43] <Kendreague> doomster: according to my logitech keyboard, the windows key should function as option
[12:43] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: multiverse is checked
[12:43] <velko> Panterh3art, no. but i can jump right in
[12:43] <Kendreague> doomster: I take it you don't have your Apple keyboard anymore?
[12:43] <mbd> hi! im trying to do some programing, using code::blocks. but it seems my system dosnt have conio.h. what packages do i need to install?
[12:43] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: http://flomertens.free.fr/ntfs-config/    <-- grab the .deb file from there, and install it by tpying "sudo dpkg -i ntfs-config_0.5.5-1_i386.deb"
[12:43] <livenicely_> when i play .dat file in kaffine i cant hear sound but only movie
[12:43] <livenicely_> when i play .dat file in kaffine i cant hear sound but only movie
[12:44] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: thanks
[12:44] <doomster> Kendreague, never had one, mac mini came without one.
[12:44] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: I have to go now. If you still have trouble after having run ntfs-config, then you need to check that your /etc/fstab file is configured correctly.
[12:44] <Gabz> mbd: a .h files is a header file for C or C++
[12:44] <EkToBoT> SlimeyPete: ok thanks for all your help
[12:44] <Gabz> mbd:  generally
[12:44] <mbd> Gabz, yes
[12:45] <Zamber> how to split a zip archive? zipsplit raturns: zipsplit error: Entry too big to split, read, or write
[12:45] <SlimeyPete> EkToBoT: no problem
[12:45] <Kendreague> doomster: Oh, okay. Well do a hard restart, and hold down the windows key before you hear the startup chime. You should then get a purplish screen that will load up all the available boot devices, one will be a CD with Tux on it, that being your Ubuntu CD. Before you do so, though, when you hold down C, can you hear activity from your CD drive?
[12:45] <Pharsalus> Zamber, how big is the file you are trying to split?
[12:45] <MeTuSaLiX> how do you kill X in ubuntu, to use bash?
[12:45] <Zamber> Pharsalus the zipped one is about 6 mb
[12:45] <mbd> Gabz, are there any package for those standard headers?
[12:45] <_Johny> When is feisty planned to be released?
[12:46] <Zamber> decompressed ~40mb
[12:46] <Gabz> mbd: i didn't know it was a standar header have you installed build-esteiscalls
[12:47] <Gabz> mbd:  and gcc the complier ?
[12:47] <Zamber> Pharsalus ?
[12:47] <Pharsalus> Zamber, I'm checking known bugs.
[12:47] <Zamber> k ;)
[12:47] <Aaronfromchina> It's my ISP's problem. I've opened my.opera.com and bbc.co.uk by using TOR. Thanks a lot. :)
[12:47] <IdleOne> Gabz, build-esteiscalls <----- what the ????
[12:47] <pari`> so, is there any way to allocate some free space to "/" partition?
[12:48] <Gabz> IdleOne: yeah sorry i should spell things correctly :P build-essentials
[12:48] <ferronica> ompaul: Ign http://www.albertomilone.com binary/ Release.gpg
[12:48] <_Johny> When is feisty planned to be released?
[12:48] <IdleOne> hahahaha that was one nice typo
[12:48] <ferronica> ompaul: why it ignoring when i use sudo apt-get update?
[12:49] <Gabz> _Johny: i've read the 19th aprial
[12:49] <chaks> hi all
[12:49] <_Johny> Gabz: thanks
[12:49] <Aaronfromchina> _Johny, I'm using 7.04. It's cool. :)
[12:49] <chaks> i have internet thru proxy authentication
[12:49] <chaks> apt-get works, but synaptic is not working
[12:49] <_Johny> Aaronfromchina: Are you a beta-tester?
[12:49] <chaks> eventhugh i have specified the details of proxy and authentication
[12:49] <chaks> any help?
[12:49] <mbd> Gabz, yes.. apparently it isnt standard
[12:49] <Kendreague> on and doomster, sorry I forgot that mac minis don't come with keyboards/mice, I thought it was just BYO display
[12:50] <Pharsalus> Zamber, try renaming the zip file.
[12:50] <_Johny> chaks: seems familiar -:] 
[12:50] <Aaronfromchina> _Johny, Nop. I'm beta-adopter. :)
[12:50] <Zamber> Pharsalus ok
[12:50] <jrib> chaks: did you use synaptic's own preferences?
[12:50] <chaks> _Johny, is it a bug ? :)
[12:50] <Aaronfromchina> _Johny, Hope I can be tester some day :)
[12:50] <Gabz> mbd:  ok i'm not sure what the header file does or what your actaully trying to program
[12:50] <QRZ> mbd: --->  http://www.freelanceprogrammers.org/doubt-conio-h-in-linux-vt1728.html
[12:50] <fluxy_> Hello people. Anyone knows the login/password for ubuntu feisty fawn latest beta? thx
[12:50] <chaks> I have given my prefernces in the Network Tab for proxy
[12:50] <mbd> Gabz, im trying to do a "press the anykey to contineu"
[12:51] <ferronica> Ign http://www.albertomilone.com binary/ Release.gpg
[12:51] <mbd> QRZ, i c
[12:51] <jrib> fluxy_: whatever you set when you installed it
[12:51] <ferronica> why it failing
[12:51] <Zamber> Pharsalus the same as before ;/
[12:51] <Gabz> mbd:  you coding in c++ ?
[12:51] <ompaul> ferronica, I am looking for a web page with some explainations for you
[12:51] <fluxy_> live cd i mean
[12:51] <mbd> Gabz, yes
[12:51] <ferronica> ompaul: okay
[12:51] <jrib> fluxy_: ubuntu is the username, password is blank (empty)
[12:52] <fluxy_> i tried, rejected
[12:52] <fluxy_> :(
[12:52] <jrib> fluxy_: try #ubuntu+1, maybe it changed for feisty
[12:52] <chaks> how ever i configure, synaptic tells that it requires proxy authentication
[12:52] <Panterh3art> :\
[12:53] <Gabz> mbd:  shouldn't require any fancy header files but i can't find my stuff from last year so i can't find the example
[12:53] <Pharsalus> Zamber, is it a PKWARE zip file?
[12:53] <Zamber> Pharsalus zipsplit is not nessesary, is there amy way to make a splited archive?
[12:53] <Panterh3art> velko can i protect that option for other people
[12:53] <Panterh3art> ?
[12:53] <Zamber> Pharsalus dunn
[12:53] <doomster> Kendreague, I can't seem to get it to work. The key of which I think it is the windows key (using a happy hacking keyboard) doesn't have any effect. :(
[12:53] <Panterh3art> with a password ore something
[12:53] <mbd> Gabz, ok
[12:53] <Zamber> no password
[12:53] <jrib> chaks: synaptic has its own proxy settings if you go to its options dialog
[12:53] <chaks> jrib, they are set
[12:54] <velko> Panterh3art, which option? either your first user has administrative privileges with his own password or you (additionaly) set password for root
[12:54] <Panterh3art> velko i mean this one passwd can i set a [asswprd pm ot ?
[12:54] <Panterh3art> password on it *
[12:54] <Kendreague> doomster: Oh okay then... See the problem is, that PowerPC macs don't have a BIOS, they use the Open Firmware to configure everything. Ubuntu doesn't know how to read open firmware settings, so it's defaulting to VGA for default video output, whereas your open firmware would be set for DVI in Mac OS X. You need to parse a command to the kernel of Ubuntu that sets the DVI as your standard output, and I don't know how to do that, maybe someone
[12:54] <jrib> chaks: do you require authentication for the proxy?
[12:55] <Zamber> Pharsalus I decompressed and compressed it back tryed to split and it's agin the same as before
[12:55] <_Johny> chaks: No  it's quite "normal" at least for me. have a little trust and try "aptsh" you probably won't use adept anymore...
[12:55] <velko> Panterh3art, the first user you created can do anything root can do. the other users cannot
[12:55] <_Johny> chaks: No  it's quite "normal" at least for me. have a little trust and try "aptsh" you probably won't use adept anymore...
[12:55] <Panterh3art> nvm
[12:55] <Pharsalus> Zamber: I suggest you report this as a bug to http://www.goatley.com/hunter/zip-bug.html
[12:55] <doomster> Kendreague, that's a point, I'll see if google knows something. Also, the yaboot prompt said something about display problems....
[12:55] <chaks> i have set the apt-get to use proxy authentication and it works fine
[12:56] <chaks> even update-manager works fine
[12:56] <chaks> but synaptic does not
[12:56] <coldsteal> has anyone here done the bootstram?
[12:57] <coldsteal> *i mean this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromKnoppix
[12:57] <Zamber> Pharsalus ok, I'll do that. Is there any other way to make a splitted archive? Coz I have a old toshiba notebook with only a floppy
[12:57] <velko> coldsteal, not from knoppix but i have done it a few times
[12:57] <tuco> Hi all. I want to install and run the ati drivers for my laptop, but don't know how to do it!
[12:58] <velko> !nvidia | tuco
[12:58] <ubotu> tuco: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:58] <coldsteal> velko: could you help me?/
[12:58] <velko> coldsteal, what is your problem precisely?
[12:58] <coldsteal> well i cant install from the alt cd
[12:58] <coldsteal> it freezes at pci
[12:59] <coldsteal> and its real anoying
[12:59] <coldsteal> i can install slackware fine and run most live cds
[12:59] <velko> coldsteal, what do you mean by "it freezes at pci" ?
[12:59] <coldsteal> but not arch or ubuntu
[12:59] <coldsteal> it stops
[12:59] <coldsteal> totally
[12:59] <coldsteal> it will just sit there
[12:59] <ompaul> ferronica, there is no easy answer, but at the end of the day it is a network error, if you are getting other repos then it might just be that one, however if you are not getting any check out your local networks configuration
[01:00] <velko> coldsteal, i know what freezes mean but i don't understand at which step in the process it freezes
[01:00] <Pharsalus> Zamber, using the 'split' command in Bash will do it
[01:00] <ferronica> ompaul: ompaul let me send you my update list okay
[01:00] <coldsteal> when it trying to utt the text install
[01:01] <ompaul> ferronica, read my answer, it is a network problem - why who knows
[01:01] <Zamber> Pharsalus and then I will be able to glue it back under DOS?
[01:01] <velko> coldsteal, which command are you running when it freezes?
[01:01] <telos> Hi, i have kinda problem. When i want to install Ubuntu 6.10, after sometime window pop up "The X Server is now disabled. Restart GDM when it is configured correctly." I have GF8800GTS. Anyone have ideas how to get it solved?
[01:02] <coldsteal> i boot the system i press enter
[01:02] <ferronica> ompaul: Its happening from 5 days
[01:02] <ferronica> ompaul: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14696/
[01:02] <velko> coldsteal, please include my nick in your messages so that i can identify them easier
[01:02] <coldsteal> i also tryed to do the flags to not loaf pcmcia
[01:02] <coldsteal> velko: sorry
[01:02] <ferronica> ompaul: ok got that Link?
[01:03] <ompaul> looking
[01:03] <ferronica> ompaul: ok
[01:03] <coldsteal> velko: could ou help me install it from ubuntu?
[01:03] <coldsteal> *knoppix
[01:03] <ompaul> coldsteal, this is not #knoppix
[01:04] <velko> coldsteal, you sill haven't answered my question? which command are you running when the install freezes?
[01:04] <coldsteal> ompaul: i know
[01:04] <ompaul> and mixing your packages will break stuff
[01:04] <coldsteal> i press enter
[01:04] <coldsteal> velko: i press enter
[01:04] <ompaul> ferronica, well have a chat with the owner of that repo
[01:04] <coldsteal> velko: from the install cd
[01:04] <ferronica> ompaul: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14697/
[01:05] <coldsteal> velko: what are you asking for the bootstrap
[01:05] <ferronica> ompaul: this my source.list
[01:05] <tuco> I am lost at this line: Make sure fglrx is not disabled: gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[01:05] <ferronica> ompaul: please check if there is nay error.
[01:05] <tuco> where do I have to go to do that, I am running KDE
[01:05] <Pharsalus> I'm not sure, but I think split creates .part files.
[01:05] <velko> coldsteal, debootstrap is a way of installing debian (and debian derivates) from a running system into a directory on the disk.
[01:06] <telos> Hi, i have kinda problem. When i want to install Ubuntu 6.10, after sometime window pop up "The X Server is now disabled. Restart GDM when it is configured correctly." I have GF8800GTS. Anyone have ideas how to get it solved?
[01:06] <coldsteal> velko: yes okay...
[01:06] <IdleOne> tuco, open a konsole and type in that command
[01:06] <velko> coldsteal, i still don't see what are you doing and where the problem is. i haven't installed knoppix so i don't know anything about pressing enter, right?
[01:06] <coldsteal> velko: knoppix is a live c
[01:07] <coldsteal> *cd
[01:07] <tuco> in the terminal Idle?
[01:07] <IdleOne> yes
[01:07] <tuco> I got that: gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[01:07] <coldsteal> velko: im trying to install ubuntu but the cd install fails because i never get to the actual install because it freses before i can do anything
[01:08] <ferronica> ompaul: Is there any error in my source.list
[01:08] <ompaul> ferronica, -- talk to the owner of this site >>>  http://www.albertomilone.com/drivers/edgy/latest/32bit/  <<< or whoever suggested that -- it is not a repo
[01:08] <tuco> sorry that:
[01:08] <tuco> tuco@Blondin:~$ gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[01:08] <tuco> bash: gksudo: command not found
[01:08] <IdleOne> ferronica, your sources.list is fine you need to talk to the owner of the repo and ask why uit isnt working
[01:09] <IdleOne> ferronica, correction everything except the albertomilone line is fine
[01:09] <velko> coldsteal, you presented here a links about using dbootstrap and asked if anyone have experience with this installation method. now you are talking about something else. i can't help you with that
[01:09] <IdleOne> IdleOne, pokes ompaul :P
[01:10] <coldsteal> velko: you cannot help me install ubuntu
[01:10] <velko> coldsteal, nope. sorry
[01:10] <tuco> Idle I am stuck sorry!
[01:10] <coldsteal> ok
[01:11] <kwierso_> coldsteal, at what exact point is it failing?
[01:11] <IdleOne> tuco, stuck where with what?
[01:11] <IdleOne> tuco, enter IdleOne so it highlights
[01:11] <tuco> this:  Make sure fglrx is not disabled: gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[01:11] <coldsteal> when it trys pci
[01:11] <tuco> I am running kde, so not sure it is the right command
[01:11] <coldsteal> kwierso_: like searching the pci
[01:11] <luigi> g' day guys

[01:12] <tuco> of course
[01:12] <kestaz_> lspci
[01:12] <IdleOne> tuco, ok gksudo gedit will open that file for you I am assuming you need to look for a line that says fglrx enabled and yeah use kdesu instead

[01:33] <telos> Hi, i have kinda problem. When i want to install Ubuntu 6.10, after sometime window pop up "The X Server is now disabled. Restart GDM when it is configured correctly." I have GF8800GTS. Anyone have ideas how to get it solved?
[01:33] <tuco> in kde?
[01:34] <velko> tuco, kate instead of gedit
[01:34] <tuco> I am just following the tutorial
[01:34] <T0uCH> someone his familiar with mounting partitions?
[01:34] <sacater> telos: nvidia card?
[01:34] <velko> tuco, yes vim is the best text editor i have used at all but it is not newbie friendly
[01:34] <coldsteal> Setting up standerd PCI resource
[01:35] <rogger> Isn't it Ctrl + Alt + Backspace to switch into terminal ?
[01:35] <coldsteal> thats where it freezes
[01:35] <tuco> ok opened in kate :-)
[01:35] <velko> tuco, yep :-)
[01:35] <Pici> rogger: ctrl-alt-backspace kills your xsession.
[01:35] <T0uCH> mountpartitins = ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ for me lol
[01:35] <preaction> rogger: no, that forces g-/k-dm to shutdown. ctrl+alt+f1 - f5 will simply "switch" into a terminal
[01:35] <Copolycube> hello everybody
[01:36] <rogger> preaction ok thanks :)
[01:36] <preaction> rogger: when you switch to a terminal, use ctrl+alt+f6 (i think, might be f7) to switch back to X
[01:36] <T0uCH> i was thinking that i can get some help here...
[01:36] <_RadioHead> i download ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386.iso i start as live cd but i can`t login? it ask me for root passwd
[01:36] <tuco> do I need to restart Kubuntu in order for the drivers to take effect Velko?
[01:36] <benjamin_> some who can help me with ekiga? when I connect to SIP: 501 I can hear some sound for only 1 second....
[01:36] <tuor> velko, ok, I am install, and now I not find the program to run
[01:36] <grimeboy> How do I unmount an automatically mounted disk then stop it from remounting automatically?
[01:37] <velko> tuco, it is sufficent ot restart X. but it will be easier for you to restart ubuntu instead
[01:37] <_RadioHead> anyone
[01:37] <_RadioHead> ?
[01:37] <Copolycube> does anybody knows how I can change the dual screen config 'on the fly' *i.e. without stopping X and all the applications* (I'm using a laptop and I don't have the second screen always) ???
[01:37] <grimeboy> velko, I don't know, gvim is pretty friendly. You can start off just using it insert mode.
[01:37] <velko> tuor, i don't understand
[01:37] <tuco> ok doing that :-)
[01:37] <grimeboy> velko, Or using cream.
[01:37] <grimeboy> (Which is cheating)
[01:37] <Copolycube> any idea/ advice ?
[01:38] <grimeboy> (But a good way to ease yourself in)
[01:38] <velko> grimeboy, tuco follows some tutorial which says "vim". he does not even know that vim is text editor. so i suggested something user friendly. i'm happy vim user myself
[01:38] <Copolycube> at least does anybody uses dual screen ?
[01:38] <fotoflo> i just installed ubuntu server but i didnt install DCHP, how do i set that up?
[01:38] <nakedLefty> hey SlimeyPete - i'm back!!
[01:38] <coldsteal> ubuntu freezes at "Setting up standard PCI resource"
[01:38] <rogger> X tries to load my graphicdevice at PCI:1:0:1 even tho i xorg.conf sais 1:0:0 :/
[01:38] <nakedLefty> :(
[01:39] <fuzzy_logic> i have a logitech quickcam zoom.. but i can't get it to work.. anyone help plz??
[01:39] <grimeboy> velko, Oh, okay. This is why I should read the buffer.
[01:39] <velko> grimeboy, np :-)
[01:40] <fuzzy_logic> anyone help with my logitech quickcam zoom?
[01:41] <tuco> It worked Velko Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! :-) Thanks for your help mate
[01:41] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: something went slightly wrong - it turns out i have "hooked" up my hdd's backwards, so the installation p grub on a data drive, which was hda0 - when i try to "boot it" grub comes up with a error17 i think it was, and i cannot - i guess for the same reason - boot Ubuntu directly from the ex-Vista drive i installed it on :( - it is something that is fixable from the LiveCD or do I have to reconnect my drives "correctly"
[01:41] <nakedLefty> install?
[01:41] <velko> tuco, np. glad that it works :-)
[01:41] <tuco> Fuzzy I will have to do that too for my logitech webcam
[01:41] <tuor> velko, Exemple: The directory for my Install.exe is /home/tuor/Install.exe and my archive to run program, where is it?
[01:41] <Copolycube> nobody has an idea on my dual screen question ?
[01:42] <velko> tuor, your archive?
[01:42] <tuor> velko,  yes, where is it?
[01:42] <fotoflo> erhm how do i use DHCP with ubuntu?
[01:42] <velko> tuor, what do you mean by archive? what is this?
[01:42] <davisc> fotoflo: Should be used by default
[01:42] <robinlinth> How do I import these bookmarklets: http://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/importall.html in Epiphany?
[01:43] <PriceChild> how do I md5sum a burnt cd?
[01:43] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: you can use the install CD to boot from the hard disk, and from there I think you can set up grub manually. You might need the alternate install cd for this, though - I forget.
[01:43] <ompaul> T0uCH, read web page, follow instructions, enjoy that is how it works
[01:43] <tuor> velko, sorry, I write wrong, archive= program.exe
[01:43] <tuor> velko, is file
[01:43] <velko> PriceChild, md5sum yourfile > output.md5sum
[01:43] <tuor> velko, no archive
[01:43] <ompaul> T0uCH, the reason for the gap in replies is I am not sitting at the computer - just passing by
[01:43] <fotoflo> Davisc: and if it's been disabled where do i enable it?
[01:43] <T0uCH> ompaul i can't acces the fstab
[01:43] <sytone> Broken ubuntu-desktop :( i installed the latest f-spot (source and compiled) now it states that the ubuntu-package is broken. tell me there is a simple way without playing with the package dependencies which I will have to work out how the package fits together
[01:43] <velko> tuor, you just type:
[01:43] <PriceChild> velko, I know... but I can't md5sum the directory
[01:44] <velko> tuor, wine /home/tuor/program.exe
[01:44] <velko> PriceChild, indeed. it works only for files
[01:44] <T0uCH> if i cant modified the fstab i cant mount a partition right?
[01:44] <Copolycube> what are you using to enable your dual screen config with an ati ?
[01:44] <velko> PriceChild, you may tar the directory first and md5sum the archive
[01:44] <PriceChild> velko, there must be a way to md5sum the burnt cd though... and easier than making an image
[01:44] <ompaul> T0uCH, what I did was give you a way to do the job, you are doing it your own way
[01:45] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete:  - ermm... okay, so i'd beable to find the alternate cd some where on the ubuntu dl site? the livecd only give me the option of booting from the first hdd as it were - though i have not checked if there are alternate boot options on said cd?
[01:45] <rioch> How do I install an SMP kernel in edgy eft?
[01:45] <T0uCH> just tell me where the copy the script lol
[01:45] <yellow_chicken> PriceChild: you want to md5sum a burnt cd?
[01:45] <erUSUL> rioch: the generic kernel can do smp
[01:45] <tuor> velko, I was run wine /home/tuor/install.exe, but i dont find run.exe
[01:45] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, yeah :)
[01:45] <velko> PriceChild, you are supposed to md5sum the image after downloading and not after burning
[01:45] <yellow_chicken> PriceChild: md5sum /dev/hdc   , where hdc is your cdrom
[01:45] <PriceChild> velko, I did
[01:46] <rioch> erUSUL: I upgraded from dapper and I have quite a few ticked in synaptic. I think im running the generic but smp isn't running (no idea why)
[01:46] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: if you swap your HDs round you could use the CD to boot from your ubuntu drive, then you can install grub onto whichever drive you want once you're in.
[01:46] <sytone> so can anyone hwlpe with getting ubuntu-desktop package to beleive it is good and healthy
[01:46] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, aha! :) /dev/cdrom0 didn't work for me so gave up with that idea :)
[01:46] <yellow_chicken> PriceChild: not /dev/cdrom0, do it on dev/hdc or hdd
[01:46] <grimeboy> So, anyone know how do I'd unmount an automatically mounted disk then stop it from remounting automatically?
[01:46] <_RadioHead> anyone can help me?
[01:46] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, yup, thanks very much! :)
[01:46] <velko> tuor, you don't find run.exe or install.exe? and is your .exe file really located in /home/tuor? i gave this path as example. i cannot know where your file is located
[01:47] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, simple things :)
[01:47] <yellow_chicken> welcome
[01:47] <sytone> grimeboy: sudo umount /path/to/mount and then remove the entry from /etc/fstab
[01:47] <tuco> Velko is there any command to make my audigy 2 sound card the default one?
[01:47] <ompaul> T0uCH, laughing out loud at everything you do, does not encourge people to take you seriously:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[01:47] <_RadioHead> i boot in safe graphic mode ubuntu 7.04 bet abut i can`t login , dono what is a passwd
[01:48] <grimeboy> sytone, Thanks.
[01:48] <rioch> erUSUL: actually, im using the -386 version, but I have the generic one installed. Is it safe to just remove the 386 one?
[01:48] <yellow_chicken> _RadioHead: sudo passwd to set password for root
[01:48] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: - oh... errmmm... when from the BIOS's boot"manager" trying to boot the Ubuntu drive, it just comes up with "no operating system found" - is that very bad?
[01:48] <kijjaz> i using Ubuntu 7.04. it detects my D-Link wireless USB okay. activated Roaming' mode but it doesn work. i use DHCP wireless at home. what do i need?
[01:48] <_RadioHead> yellow_chicken: live cd
[01:48] <tuor> velko, I don't find run.exe and my file install.exe really located in /home/tuor. I install it with graphical interface
[01:49] <hoelk> hmm
[01:49] <_RadioHead> yellow_chicken: i have only login , i boot live cd
[01:49] <sytone> so anyone able to help on fooling the ubuntu-desktop package into thinking that the new version of f-spot is as good as the old
[01:49] <hoelk> what download manager is recommended for gnome?
[01:49] <T0uCH> i just want to view my files on another partitions... i try to understand how to install the script.. i dont know how and where to go.. everything i does ... his baddest
[01:49] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: that just means it can't find a bootloader (ie grub). Should be fixable if you can get into the system via the CD.
[01:49] <_RadioHead> but when i type root and enter nothing , it sayusername or passwd is incorrect
[01:49] <erUSUL> rioch: it should be yes (first check if you do not have problems with the generic one (it is always good to have a known "working" kernel around)
[01:49] <yellow_chicken> _RadioHead: in live cd, you have a default account right? i forgot
[01:49] <fuzzy_logic> i have a logitech quickcam zoom.. but i can't get it to work.. anyone help plz??
[01:50] <erUSUL> !sudo | _RadioHead
[01:50] <ubotu> _RadioHead: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:50] <velko> tuor, you should know how your file is named. i replied to this one (where run.exe and install.exe are mixed) "velko, I was run wine /home/tuor/install.exe, but i dont find run.exe"
[01:50] <sytone> Radiohead: root is disabled
[01:50] <_RadioHead> sytone: then what acount i can use
[01:50] <velko> tuor, wine /home/tuor/install.exe
[01:50] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: okay, thanl
[01:50] <yellow_chicken> _RadioHead: what do yo want to do?
[01:50] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete:  - okay, thanks, I'll give it a whirl
[01:50] <sytone> live cd does not need a account
[01:51] <sytone> radiohead: if you need to do a root functino try sudo command
[01:51] <_RadioHead> yellow_chicken: i want to login on gnome or whatever it is , i start live CD ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386 but i can not login
[01:51] <_RadioHead> sytone: dude i can`t login absolutely
[01:51] <rioch> erUSUL: How can I get it to boot the generic one? I know that the nvidia-glx package depends on the 386 version, so i will lose nvidia support
[01:51] <SlimeyPete> nakedLefty: np. Good luck :)
[01:51] <dxdemetriou> I have a problem after an upgrade with edgy. the gnome don't start and I haven't some output to know what goes wrong
[01:51] <Karol84PL> Hello, anyone could help me with uploading music to my Motorola ROKR E1 mobile phone. I tried to upload music with gtkpod, but it seems that ipod has a different structure of directories and this is a problem.
[01:52] <yellow_chicken> _RadioHead: live cd should give you gnome. and when you click on terminal, you get terminal.
[01:52] <_RadioHead> erUSUL: i don`t need sudo , i just need to login
[01:52] <_RadioHead> yellow_chicken: i know
[01:52] <ompaul> _RadioHead, livecds don't require logins - they jump to working desktops
[01:52] <erUSUL> rioch: it should appear in the grub menu if you have it instaled
[01:52] <_RadioHead> ompaul: supose but not here
[01:52] <T0uCH> ompaul... it ask me a password to enable the script??? it do not mention a password in the web-page
[01:52] <yellow_chicken> _RadioHead: still yet, what are you trying to accomplish?  i dont have beta with me to test it out.
[01:52] <ompaul> T0uCH, your own password
[01:53] <erUSUL> _RadioHead: if you need a "root shell" use "sudo -i" root account is disabled in ubuntu as a distribution desing decission
[01:53] <earthen> _RadioHead,  I'm sure you tried this but just in case did you try just hitting enter with no password
[01:53] <T0uCH> it does work... but i found the problem thanks
[01:53] <_RadioHead> earthen: yes
[01:53] <yellow_chicken> where's the place command to register my nick?
[01:54] <sytone> radiohead: ok try demo demo
[01:54] <erUSUL> _RadioHead: anyway if you plan to use ubuntu better get used to use sudo for administrative tasks
[01:54] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, bah md5sum: /dev/hdd: Input/output error
[01:54] <erUSUL> yellow_chicken: /msg NickServ help
[01:55] <PriceChild> !register > yellow_chicken (see the pm from ubotu)
[01:55] <_RadioHead> erUSUL: i use slackware but a friend of mine download ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386.iso and he use it like live cd but not GDM reqiure username and password
[01:55] <yellow_chicken> PriceChild: maybe /dev/hdc ?  you have to use your cdrom device, most likely, hdc or hdd
[01:55] <_RadioHead> and thought to give a try also :)
[01:55] <sytone> can anyone here help with gatting a package to beleive that nothing is wrong and that a newer version of f-spot is not a bad thing
[01:55] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, no definitely hdd
[01:55] <N-J> hello
[01:55] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, I think its a bad disc anyway but I've got another idea. Thanks :)
[01:56] <yellow_chicken> PriceChild: it works for me,  i did md5sum /dev/hdc before
[01:56] <_RadioHead> erUSUL: example when i use somtimes slax live cd default acount was root and passwd toor
[01:56] <PriceChild> y
[01:56] <mrmonday> how can i have different backgrounds on each of my desktops?
[01:56] <earthen> _RadioHead,  Thats strange I've never seen a password for any ubuntu live cd
[01:56] <erUSUL> _RadioHead: in ubuntu livecd fire up a terminal and use 'sudo -i' as i told you with blank password
[01:57] <_RadioHead> erUSUL: ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386.iso is live and install CD
[01:57] <_RadioHead> ? righty?
[01:57] <erUSUL> _RadioHead: yes
[01:57] <sirkism> so gdesklets is the dock app?
[01:57] <_RadioHead> erUSUL: strange why it ask for passwd
[01:58] <ompaul> _RadioHead, only when you get the live cd part running (unless you use a rather not well known hack)
[01:58] <ompaul> _RadioHead, hit enter
[01:58] <_RadioHead> ompaul: let me try
[01:58] <earthen> _RadioHead, unless you downloaded the alternate install cd ISO
[01:58] <tuco> guys how I can make my audigy 2 card the default one please?
[01:58] <ajmorris_> i get an error running a kde app in gnome : Ksmoothdock crashed caused the signal 8 (SIGFPE) does this mean i can't run it in gnome or that i don't have some requirements?
[01:58] <T0uCH> ompaul:  it work for the c drive... but i got a d drive too... do i need to do something else?
[01:58] <benjamin_> how can i get my internal mic working? at the moment my spoken voice goes to my line out
[01:59] <_RadioHead> earthen: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-desktop-i386.iso link where iso is downloaded
[01:59] <yellow_chicken> PriceChild: you 've already mount hdd before you type in that command?
[01:59] <ompaul> T0uCH, add the same kind of data for that drive and make another directory for it - gksu gedit /etc/fstab for fun
[01:59] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, lol i suppose i should have unmounte dit ;)
[01:59] <ompaul> _RadioHead, you are talking about a condition no one here recognises and is not default are you sure you have the right CD?
[02:00] <PriceChild> _RadioHead, feisty in #ubuntu+1 please
[02:00] <ompaul> _RadioHead, if it was a bug hundreds if not thousands would be reporting it
[02:00] <_RadioHead> PriceChild: thx
[02:00] <_RadioHead> ompaul: do no dude never try ubuntu before
[02:00] <fotoflo> how do i set the time on my server? it srays i cant sudo because the timestamp is "too far in the future"

[02:03] <neo_> thank u
[02:03] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, you have to connect bluetooth stuff from command line manully, at least that the only way I figured on how to do it
[02:03] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: how?
[02:03] <yellow_chicken> i want to get a pci sata card, and boot OS off from sata drive, but don't know if i need / required to set it up as a raid
[02:04] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, have you installed the bluetooth stuff?
[02:04] <fuzzy_logic> earthen? what stuff?
[02:05] <T0uCH> ompaul:  it told me no other usable partitions found....
[02:05] <N-J2> I'm having some wired/wireless issue when I'm using the router...while if I'm directlly wired to the modem the internet works fine
[02:05] <LookTJ> hark
[02:05] <ompaul> T0uCH, put the contents of the output of "sudo fdisk -l" in http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org
[02:05] <LookTJ> iwconfig shows only eth0 and lo
[02:05] <benjb0> when is the next release of ubuntu?

[02:06] <N-J2> anyone feel like picking me to help me :p
[02:06] <yellow_chicken> why ubuntu still beta? release is due on the 19th, are there any RCs?
[02:06] <ompaul> benjb0, about 10 days
[02:06] <benjb0> ompaul, gr8 :)
[02:06] <gabz> yellow_chicken,  7.04 is in beta and you know the release date
[02:07] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: i think i did.. not sure dough.. im gonna check.
[02:07] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, just redo it just in case
[02:07] <N-J2> http://najibaouni.info/files/terminal.txt
[02:07] <LookTJ> hark: still here?
[02:07] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, you should check here first to make sure your device works "http://www.holtmann.org/linux/bluetooth/features.html"
[02:08] <yellow_chicken> gabz: well, just wonder if there will be any RC before final release
[02:08] <LookTJ> /info hark
[02:08] <gabz> yellow_chicken, yes you can download the beta version and install it.
[02:08] <sirkism> does the cd/dvd creator make audio mp3 cds?
[02:08] <N-J2> I'm really clueless with this internet issue
[02:08] <sirkism> or will it just make it a data cd?
[02:08] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: my device is not on the list..
[02:09] <PriceChild> yellow_chicken, there will be an RC on the 12th see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule
[02:09] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, so there's a chance that it may not work at all
[02:09] <velko> sirkism, mp3 cds _are_ data cds
[02:09] <camer0n> hello :)
[02:09] <sirkism> i mean where I can play it on a regular cd player?
[02:09] <camer0n> hyper_ch, back again :)
[02:09] <Cakper> hi
[02:10] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: a chance, yes.. but its not for sure.. i installed the packages.. what should i do now?
[02:10] <earthen> in command line type sudo hidd --search
[02:10] <earthen> that should locate your device
[02:10] <N-J2> can anyone give me any suggestions on what I can do?
[02:10] <camer0n> hyper_ch, i got the computer up and running. i had to do a bt of stuffing around with resolv.conf and my dns. had to set manually. either way it is working now ;)
[02:10] <yellow_chicken> PriceChild: ah..
[02:10] <zbrown> "hcitool scan" will work as well
[02:10] <velko> sirkism, a lot of players can play disks containing mp3 files. these disks are still data files. audio disks cannot contain mp3
[02:11] <grimeboy> Hmmm... how can I make gparted understand ntfs partitions?
[02:11] <zbrown> then "hidd --connect <address>"
[02:11] <sirkism> o
[02:11] <camer0n> i have an issue with tightvncserver :(
[02:11] <velko> sirkism, the easiest way to know this for sure is to try it
[02:11] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, BTW type man hidd will give you all the info you need
[02:11] <T0uCH> ompaul what is that site? is it a FAQ ? or kind of like
[02:11] <camer0n> Couldn't start Xtightvnc; trying default font path.

[02:12] <N-J2> can anyone give me any suggestions on what I can do?
[02:12] <grimeboy> How do I install gparted plugins?
[02:12] <grimeboy> For ntfs.
[02:12] <N-J2> I'm having some wired/wireless issue when I'm using the router...while if I'm directlly wired to the modem the internet works fine
[02:12] <bimberi> camer0n: could be this ...

[02:12] <ubotu> camer0n: If you are getting errors like "could not open default font 'fixed'" when running a VNC server: 'sudo ln -s /usr/share/X11/fonts /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts'
[02:12] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: i don't understand anything :S
[02:12] <ompaul> T0uCH, are you trolling me?
[02:12] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, once it finds you mac address of your device you type  "sudo hidd --connect  (mac address)" with not brackets
[02:13] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, ok where did I loose you
[02:13] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: how can i let it find my mac adress?
[02:13] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: i installed the packages
[02:13] <doomster> N-J2, if I interpret that link you dumped here right, it seems that it is trying to get an IP address from a DHCP server but doesn't get one.
[02:14] <T0uCH> ompaul really not
[02:14] <T0uCH> normally i speak french
[02:14] <velko> fuzzy_logic, sudo ifconfig
[02:14] <earthen> ok then in command line type " sudo hidd --search"
[02:14] <txete> ubuntu espaol
[02:14] <Pici> txete: /j #ubuntu-es
[02:14] <velko> !es | txete
[02:14] <T0uCH> i got some problem to understand the command
[02:14] <ubotu> txete: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[02:14] <camer0n> bimberi, thank you :) nice and quick fix :)
[02:14] <ompaul> T0uCH, so the question arrises where the use of a pastebin becomes a FAQ
[02:14] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, you may have to press the connect button on your device
[02:14] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: i did
[02:14] <fuzzy_logic> !paste
[02:14] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:15] <dashs> Did raid5 install of 6.10 server : installs fine : reboot fails - external scsi drives not recognized at boot . where can I look up this error?
[02:15] <jornbjorn> heh
[02:15] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, so did that command return your mac address
[02:15] <N-J2> doomster, there's is a pretty high wireless signal but it recieves nothing -->  http://najibaouni.info/images/settingsEth1.jpg
[02:16] <Eagleray> dashs: try google - it's always a good first start for looking up error messages. Also try the ubuntu forums.
[02:16] <unf> im having problems with a conceptronic c54RC, anyone with the same wifi card?
[02:16] <fuzzy_logic> velko & earthen: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14706/
[02:17] <velko> fuzzy_logic, so which mac do you need? you have one physical network card, lo interface and 2 vmware virtual cards
[02:17] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, why did you post that
[02:17] <doomster> N-J2, check your router's wireless IP address. Manually set an address in the same subnet on the wireless interface of your machine and then try to ping the router.
[02:17] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: that is what i got when typing the command velko suggested
[02:18] <fuzzy_logic> velko: i want to connect to my sony ericsson v800 phone
[02:18] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, velko  O sorry did realise you were typing to someone else
[02:18] <velko> fuzzy_logic, you wanted to know the mac of you network card, right?
[02:18] <T0uCH> ompaul can you talk to me in pv.... i really appreciate some help and i dont want you to think that im not serious
[02:18] <T0uCH> and im not registered
[02:18] <zbrown> velko: i think bluetooth, not nic card
[02:18] <ompaul> well lets get you registered first
[02:18] <ompaul> !register
[02:18] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[02:19] <velko> zbrown, fuzzy_logic earthen : my fault
[02:19] <earthen> velko, I think I was trying to get him to find the mac address of his bluetooth device
[02:19] <ompaul> T0uCH, if you can hold off for 15 mins I will be back
[02:19] <camer0ff> i am trying to run tightvncserver on my ubuntu box, but am having trouble connecting to it from my windows box. "failed to connect" error keeps appearing
[02:19] <fuzzy_logic> velko: i just want to exchange files with my phone and laptop.. nothing more!
[02:19] <camer0ff> how do i tell if the server is running properly?
[02:19] <velko> earthen, ok i'm too tired already. it will be best to leave...
[02:20] <T0uCH> ompaul ok
[02:20] <N-J2> doomster, these are the routers settings -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14708/ ...so should I use thse in that "Connection settings" -> http://najibaouni.info/images/settingsEth1.jpg
[02:20] <bandolero> what happens if i remove ubuntu-desktop?
[02:21] <N-J2> the world explodes
[02:21] <bandolero> seriously
[02:21] <PriceChild> bandolero, nothing
[02:21] <PriceChild> bandolero, contains nothing. Its a package needed for upgrades
[02:21] <zbrown> bandolero: pretty sure it just tells the system if its a desktop system or a server system
[02:21] <earthen> bandolero, you end up with ubuntu with no desktop
[02:21] <bandolero> no desktop?
[02:21] <PriceChild> earthen, no
[02:21] <zbrown> bandolero: why remove it?: its 45kb
[02:21] <camer0ff> how do i tell if my vnc server is up if i cannot connect to it "failed to connect"?
[02:21] <PriceChild> bandolero, it is  package that contains nothing
[02:22] <vieirar> Hi I do not use suspend and each boot the first thing the system looks for is a resume image. Is there any way to disable this? I am trying to speed up my boot times.
[02:22] <PriceChild> bandolero, it just depends on everything needed for a full gnome/ubuntu desktop
[02:22] <doomster> N-J2, your router has two network interfaces, one is WLAN, the other Ethernet, right?
[02:22] <zbrown> bandolero: Its essentially a label. Just tells the system its a desktop.
[02:22] <bandolero> zbrown: most apts im trying to apt-remove are trying to remove it.
[02:22] <earthen> PriceChild, I stand corrected! I was guessing  :-/
[02:22] <zbrown> bandolero: why are you trying to remove everything lol?
[02:22] <bimberi> !ubuntu-desktop | bandolero
[02:22] <ubotu> bandolero: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[02:22] <bandolero> not everything.
[02:22] <doomster> N-J, if that is the case, both interfaces can have independent IP addresses on the router, too.
[02:22] <bandolero> ok
[02:22] <bandolero> brb
[02:23] <doomster> N-J, anyway, try setting your IP to 192.168.2.2 and then ping your router.
[02:23] <bimberi> camer0ff: ps auxw | grep vnc
[02:24] <camer0ff> bimberi; it returns a lot of information
[02:25] <vieirar> Is there no way to disable the system looking for a resume image at boot?
[02:25] <camer0ff> bimberi; will pastebin it for you to see :)
[02:25] <erdinger> where does rtorrent download by default?
[02:25] <bimberi> camer0ff: i was about to ask :)
[02:25] <N-J> oke doomster
[02:25] <sirkism> anybody here know of a good dock program?
[02:26] <N-J> btw I checked the routers log as well and everytime it tried to connect it blocked it
[02:26] <stevr1it> how can I increase the root partition decreasing the /home?
[02:26] <camer0ff> bimberi; how do i use pastebin first :S
[02:26] <Eagleray> sirkism: what kind of dock are you after?
[02:26] <doomster> N-J, what is ok and what kind of connect did you try?
[02:26] <IdleOne> !paste | camer0ff

[02:26] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, you still there
[02:26] <ubotu> Found: docker, haddock, kdocker, knetdockapp, kooldock (and 4 others)
[02:26] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: yes..
[02:26] <camer0ff> IdleOne thanks, i just found it in the topic too :)
[02:26] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: can u help me?

[02:27] <Copolycube> does anybody knows how I can change the dual screen config 'on the fly' *i.e. without stopping X and all the applications* (I'm using a laptop and I don't have the second screen always) ???
[02:27] <camer0ff> bimberi; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14710/
[02:27] <N-J> doomster, did I also mention the router's firewall is on
[02:27] <erdinger> rtorrent says it downloads files to ~ by default but there is nothing and it definetly downloaded the feisty image. any idea where i can find that?
[02:28] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, I couldn't find much good stuff on the net about it except this page
[02:28] <Eagleray> Copolycube: as far as I'm aware you must restart X to change the current ServerLayout
[02:28] <doomster> N-J, yep, saw that, but that should only affect traffic to and from the internet
[02:28] <N-J> ah ok
[02:28] <Eagleray> Copolycube: you could write a script to do it for you though
[02:28] <sirkism> Eagleray, I've seen the kiba dock, but I can't seem to find the place to download it
[02:28] <bimberi> camer0ff: looks ok.  you should be able to connect to <address of your pc>:1    (or :2)
[02:28] <Eagleray> sirkism: hang on, I'll take a look for you
[02:29] <Copolycube> Eagleray: it seems that I don't need it
[02:29] <camer0ff> okay :S

[02:29] <N-J> doomster, in the router's setting I can enable a virtual server...should I forward some ports for thr 192.168.2.2 ip?
[02:30] <crane_> somewhat
[02:30] <camer0ff> bimberi: wow.. so all i needed was the :1? cool :D
[02:30] <crane_> :)
[02:30] <numan> i want to install my video card drivers?
[02:30] <numan> :)
[02:30] <doomster> N-J, I'd rather not. This just makes those ports of an internal machine appear on the internet.
[02:30] <aljaber> how could i list all available man pages on a system!
[02:30] <Eagleray> Copolycube: at first glance it appears to be in svn, source only
[02:30] <adfsasdf> whats the package that contains an open ssh server called again?
[02:30] <Eagleray> Copolycube: you will need to build it

[02:30] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: i tried that previously.. but it didn't work cause i didn't see my bluetooth device when i typed lsusb
[02:30] <aljaber> is there any command to do so?
[02:30] <doomster> N-J, still, did you manage to ping the router "ping 192.168.2.1"
[02:30] <bimberi> camer0ff: ah yes :)

[02:34] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use.

[02:35] <crane_> numan, Onse you do that and start back up, just  enter sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx in  teminal
[02:35] <apokryphos> so don't use it :)
[02:35] <doomster> N-J, the "gateway" is the interface of your router that is towards the internal network. If you just take an address from the 192.168.2.x range (apart from 0 and 255) you should be able to ping the router on its ip address. You can try that from Windows, too.
[02:35] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, it is possable that your blue tooth hard ware is not working
[02:35] <N-J> doomster, and yes my current dhcp ip is 192.168.2.154 on windows

[02:38] <numan> crane: can i do it now?
[02:39] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, that doesn't look good for your device

[02:39] <Chris1> hi, i decided to reinstall my ubuntu today. now i'm wondering if i should install the stable edgy or the feisty beta.
[02:39] <Eagleray> sirkism: all the libraries will be in one place, all the binaries in another etc etc
[02:39] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: what do you mean?
[02:39] <Chris1> is edgy upgradeable to feisty, when it's released?
[02:39] <Eagleray> sirkism: take a look in /usr/bin
[02:39] <IdleOne>  Chris1 do edgy then upgrade in a week or so
[02:39] <Eagleray> sirkism: should give you some idea
[02:40] <sirkism> alright
[02:40] <zbrown> Chris1: upgrading between releases in my experience is dodgy at best
[02:40] <crane_> numan, sorry phone. Once you install the card in the system, then you run sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[02:40] <Chris1> so, two different oppionions...
[02:40] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, nevermind that gives me the same thing and mine works
[02:40] <AngryElf_> After I drag a newly downloaded theme.tar.gz into the theme manager it keeps giving me "invalid file format"
[02:40] <Eagleray> sirkism: in the very rare case you have a program all in one folder, convention is to put it in /opt
[02:40] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, what laptop do you have
[02:40] <IdleOne> Chris1, the final release will be on the 19 so install edgy then do an upgrade
[02:40] <adonay> is there a way to install ubuntu without a cd? dvd would be availible and a working os (winxp)
[02:41] <Eagleray> sirkism: if you don't have root access, install it in your homedir somewhere
[02:41] <numan> crane: i was not able to get any display during installtion of ubuntu so thats why i removed it

[02:41] <Eagleray> sirkism: usually when you build something, 'make install' takes care of putting the files where they are supposed to go
[02:41] <Kubuntulator> !webmin
[02:41] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[02:41] <Eagleray> sirkism: you don't normally need to do it manually
[02:41] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: toshiba satellite a100-797
[02:41] <IdleOne> Chris1, I was about to say that you can just go for it unless you have some crazy hardware you shouldnt have any problems with feisty
[02:42] <Eagleray> sirkism: does that help?
[02:42] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, the only thing that works for me is when I do "sudo sudo hidd --search
[02:42] <Answer> how can i check the battery level from the command line?
[02:42] <sirkism> Eagleray, yeah knowing that make install takes care of it just took the load off my mind
[02:42] <sirkism> Eagleray, thank you
[02:42] <numan> crane: i am just making sure that after installing my card i will get display ?
[02:42] <Eagleray> sirkism: lol yeah installing it by hand would be hell ;)
[02:42] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, I mean (sudo hidd --search) sorry
[02:42] <Chris1> IdleOne, no, not at all, so feisty is stable enough to install it? i won't even try some crazy software combinations
[02:42] <crane_> numan, 2 things. did you disable onboard video and are you sure the card works.
[02:42] <Eagleray> sirkism: no worries, anytime
[02:43] <IdleOne> Chris1, yeah it is stable enough
[02:43] <hackle577> I am trying to install Legends on my Ubuntu 6.10 system, but everytime I run the .deb file it seems to take forever. Well, I clicked the "Terminal" text and it's asking me for a directory to install it to. I looked online a bit and the Legends wiki just said to hit enter here (it defaults to /usr/games/legends), so I did, but the install failed because it says it cannot access /root//usr/games/legends
[02:43] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: it doesn't work for me..
[02:43] <crane_> numan, if you don't disable onboard vid the card my not work.
[02:43] <Chris1> IdleOne, thank you for your advice
[02:43] <doomster> hackle577, use dpkg -i legends.deb and complain to the authors that they should not require interaction.
[02:44] <IdleOne> Chris1, it's free no garantees 
[02:44] <numan> crane: i am using amibios version 6 aug 2003 which dont have any option to disable onboard vga?
[02:44] <hackle577> doomster: in terminal? (slight noob here)
[02:44] <Eagleray> hackle577: sounds like a bug in the script. run 'cd /
[02:44] <Chris1> IdleOne, .o
[02:44] <Eagleray> hackle577: * run 'cd /' prior to installing the deb
[02:44] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, what did it say
[02:44] <adonay> is there a way to install ubuntu without a cd? dvd would be availible and a working os (winxp)
[02:44] <numan> i was using that card for vista,xp and debian its doing well in these os's
[02:44] <doomster> hackle577, yes. but maybe I misunderstood you, I was assuming it was hanging there forever and that you couldn't hit enter in synaptic.
[02:44] <fuzzy_logic> Searching....
[02:44] <earthen> fuzzy_logic,  did it at least say it was searching
[02:44] <Eagleray> hackle577: and if you're installing from a gui, don't - install from a terminal
[02:44] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: yes
[02:45] <hackle577> eagleray: ok
[02:45] <Eagleray> hackle577: the gui will put its own path on things and may not allow to you enter shell commands
[02:45] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, ok so it was working then I think anyway LOL
[02:45] <crane_> numan. Then you should be able to just install card and it will use it.
[02:45] <hackle577> okie doke lemme have another try at it
[02:45] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: :P
[02:45] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, do you have anything else with blue tooth that you can try other then your phone
[02:45] <crane_> numan, You say the vid did not work during install>
[02:46] <numan> crane : ok i try it but not sure whether it will work or not?
[02:46] <numan> crane: yes during installation it didnot give me display usable for me
[02:47] <karzel> hi
[02:47] <karzel> i need help
[02:47] <fuzzy_logic> ehh
[02:47] <karzel> could anyone write to me? on priv?
[02:47] <karzel> ;p
[02:47] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: yes.. wait
[02:47] <vio> i have installed xgl+beryl and the "Alt-Gr"-button doesn't work anymore.. so i can't do any @@ f.example thats alt-gr+2 ... help
[02:47] <crane_> numan, just make sure all connections are good. and try. If it does not work, do you have another card to use as atest?
[02:47] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, how long did it take to search
[02:47] <Chris1> vio: beryl is probably using the combination, check it
[02:48] <numan> yes have to get it from another box
[02:48] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: like 0.001 sec :P
[02:48] <vio> Chris1: nope :(
[02:48] <Beta> Hey, what package do I need for mp3, avi, etc support?
[02:48] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, darn that mean it wasn't working
[02:48] <Chris1> vio: there is a channel for 3d-desktop questions, maybe you'll find help there (i forgot the channel-name)

[02:48] <clotarn> salut tout le monde
[02:48] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, is there a button to turn on your bluetooth on your laptop
[02:48] <IdleOne> !fr | clotarn bonjour
[02:48] <ubotu> clotarn bonjour: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:48] <Beta> Thanks Idleone.
[02:49] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: i was already looking for that.. but couldn't find anything
[02:49] <IdleOne> beta no problem
[02:49] <Chris1> is there a working "windows media 9" codec available?
[02:49] <barosl> how can i disable sshd on system startup by using rcconf?
[02:49] <Eagleray> Chris1: video or audio?
[02:49] <clotarn> oups, sorry, I made a mistake, have fun in english, I prefer speaking french, lool, bye friends
[02:49] <Chris1> Eagleray, video
[02:49] <numan> crane: i have another computer which also have onboard vga and display card installed but with older bios, i tried ubuntu installation at that machine and it is quiet usable the only problem there was shrinking screen
[02:50] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, when I installed mine ubuntu turned off my bluetooth by default and everytime i have to turn it on
[02:50] <Eagleray> Chris1: VLC probably supports it, but I'm not sure about other players
[02:50] <Chris1> Eagleray, i tried diferent players and installed the codecs via automatix, but it won't only show a picture every ten seconds or so
[02:50] <karzel> i need help with install cedega.
[02:50] <Eagleray> Chris1: your best bet is to give it a shot with VLC
[02:50] <Chris1> vlc does the same
[02:50] <karzel> i downloaded it and i dont know how to install....
[02:50] <IdleOne> !automatix > Chris1
[02:50] <bandolero> whats a good anti virus that works on Ubuntu?
[02:50] <karzel> ;p
[02:50] <rafallo> disconnect
[02:51] <IdleOne> bandolero, clamav
[02:51] <Chris1> IdleOne, i tried automatix and vlc, but the picture will only refresh every ten seconds
[02:51] <bandolero> i need to has real time
[02:51] <bandolero> real-time scan or scan on demand
[02:51] <IdleOne> !automatix | Chris1
[02:51] <ubotu> Chris1: 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
[02:51] <Eagleray> Chris1: what spec system?
[02:51] <numan> crane: i am going to try it now will come back after
[02:51] <fuzzy_logic> earthen: how do you do that
[02:51] <crane_> numan, OK, good luck.
[02:52] <Chris1> Eagleray, medival one (amd 1400, 512 ram, radeon 9600)
[02:52] <Eagleray> Chris1: automatix is good up to a point, but as ubotu says it can cause problems
[02:52] <Zewey> bandolero: clamtk or klamav as Clam guis, you can start the scanner from the right click menu
[02:52] <earthen> fuzzy_logic, I have a button on my system, thats why I asked you if you had one LOL
[02:52] <Eagleray> Chris1: and what's the video bitrate/resolution?
[02:52] <Chris1> Eagleray, ye, i tried vlc in the first place, but the problem occurs anyways
[02:52] <Chris1> Eagleray, whowy,..dunno
[02:52] <Eagleray> Chris1: those specs should be fune unless you're playing seriously high Q video
[02:52] <Chris1> mom
[02:53] <Eagleray> *fine
[02:53] <Eagleray> Chris1: but if the vid loses sync all the time because the frames are decoding slower than the framerate, that can cause your symptoms
[02:54] <Eagleray> Chris1: is that an athlon or duron CPU?
[02:54] <Chris1> Eagleray, it's a wow bosskill movie and the q is probably very high
[02:54] <Chris1> Eagleray, duron
[02:54] <Eagleray> Chris1: does it look about DVD quality?
[02:55] <Chris1> Eagleray, dvds work perfect
[02:55] <Eagleray> Chris1: yes, but DVDs need a lot less CPU to decode than WMV
[02:55] <Chris1> Eagleray, i guess its sth about the codec, cause some wmvs work well, even with high q
[02:55] <Eagleray> Chris1: a DVD quality WMV video stream will have issues on a 1400 duron
[02:56] <Cakper> bye
[02:56] <Chris1> Eagleray, maybe you're right. i'll try the new release without automatix and vlc
[02:56] <Chris1> maybe i'm lucky
[02:56] <Eagleray> Chris1: before you do
[02:56] <Eagleray> Chris1: install 'gkrellm'
[02:57] <Chris1> !gkrellm
[02:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gkrellm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:57] <MarcoPau> is it possible to change mouse protocol from shell without editing xorg.conf and rebooting Xorg?
[02:57] <Eagleray> Chris1: use it to display the CPU usage while playing the video
[02:57] <Eagleray> Chris1: what does it show?
[02:57] <Chris1> mom
[02:57] <Eagleray> Chris1: it should have a CPU graph in the default config, so you shouldn't need to change anything
[02:58] <bob_> hello, maybe offtopic but anyway, could anyone point me to a tool like scp but with option to skip existing files on remote machine?
[02:58] <Chris1> Eagleray, overload
[02:58] <Eagleray> Chris1: gkrellm is a system monitor app
[02:58] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: :)
[02:59] <dEBiaN> zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
[02:59] <Eagleray> Chris1: if gkrell is showing a CPU overload, then that's your problem :p
[02:59] <jim2> in #ubuntu-fr
[02:59] <Chris1> Eagleray, got it ;)
[02:59] <nakedLefty> ermm... hooked up my hdd's the right way around now - but couldn't get it to boot with the live cd
[02:59] <Chris1> Eagleray, thank you anyway :)
[02:59] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: so i am doing a reinstall
[02:59] <Eagleray> Chris1: 'fraid you'll have to transcode to a lower quality stream or to a format that uses less overhead
[02:59] <N-J> hmm
[03:00] <Eagleray> Chris1: no worries
[03:00] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: now grub is asking where to be installed... and it displays hd0 is that right?
[03:00] <Eagleray> Chris1: mpeg is good, but takes up a lot of space
[03:00] <Chris1> Eagleray, but it don't get the difference between an older wmv-codec and the 9 one
[03:00] <Eagleray> Chris1: the newer codecs use more cpu
[03:00] <Chris1> Eagleray, cause, as i said, the problem only occurs with wmv9 codec ones
[03:00] <N-J> ok
[03:00] <Eagleray> Chris1: they have better quality files for a lower bitrate, but they use more CPU power to decode
[03:01] <Eagleray> Chris1: yeah that doesn't surprise me
[03:01] <Eagleray> Chris1: MS gave it an overhaul in v9
[03:01] <N-J> doomster
[03:01] <Chris1> Eagleray, well, no bosskill for me so :D, thanks again
[03:02] <Eagleray> Chris1: no worries
[03:02] <doomster> N-J, hm?
[03:02] <jwendell> is there any way to disable touchpad in GNOME/Ubuntu (not in xorg.conf)?
[03:02] <nakedLefty> SlimeyPete: you there Mr. *Nix Guru
[03:03] <N-J> doomster, I managed to get wired working trough the router
[03:03] <N-J> as a matter of fact I'm in ubunto now
[03:03] <doomster> congratulations.
[03:03] <Eagleray> jwendell: last time I looked, you needed to use xorg.conf
[03:04] <N-J> doomster, but no luck with wireless
[03:04] <Eagleray> jwendell: the default is to use /dev/mice as the mouse, which is a 'meta-mouse' for all pointing devices attached to the system
[03:04] <Eagleray> jwendell: you will need to change the device in xorg.conf to the exact mouse you are using
[03:04] <l1234> what is the rpm command to install the g++ package?
[03:04] <Eagleray> l1234: ubuntu doesn't use rpm
[03:04] <l1234> ok so how can i install the g++ package?
[03:04] <Eagleray> l1234: use 'apt-get install build-essential'
[03:05] <doomster> N-J, how were you connected under Windows?
[03:05] <jwendell> Eagleray, ok, i want to disable it temporally...
[03:05] <jwendell> Eagleray, thanks
[03:05] <Eagleray> l1234: that will install gcc, g++, and a few other goodies useful for building software from source
[03:05] <nakedLefty> open question to you ubuntu oracles... installing ubuntu here on my pc, have a 3 hdd setup, hda is windows, hdb will be ubuntu, and hdc is my data drive - i want grub to install in the mbr of hda (the windows hdd - to make dual booting possible)  - grub in the installer is saying it's gonna install to hd0 - is that right?
[03:06] <LjL> nakedLefty: sounds right
[03:06] <Eagleray> jwendell: if you want to do that, make xorg.conf point to /dev/custommouse
[03:06] <crane_> nakedLefty: sounds right to me
[03:06] <crane_> too
[03:06] <Eagleray> then create /dev/custommouse on startup with an init script as a symlink pointing to /dev/mics
[03:06] <doomster> N-J, btw: if you open a commandline window you can run 'ipconfig' there, which will give you the setup for the various adapters configured there, maybe that turns up some information what the difference is.
[03:06] <daveletourneau> In ubuntu server, is stdout redirected to something else? I can't echo anything from my init scripts...
[03:06] <Eagleray> jwendell: then you can create a script that changes what /dev/custommouse points to
[03:06] <l1234> thansk eagleray
[03:06] <Eagleray> l1234: no worries
[03:07] <nakedLefty> so hd0 would by default be the mbr of the first master
[03:07] <Eagleray> jwendell: that will allow you to disable/enable it just by clicking script icons
[03:09] <crane_> nakedLefty: yes
[03:10] <fevel> hey guys
[03:10] <Eagleray> fevel: hey, what is your question?
[03:10] <Jump86> hey everyone, i need some help with sound... i have onboard sound that shows up as NVidia CK8S. Before today everything worked perfectly and has been for over a week. I can't think of any changes that would effect sound that were made, but when I rebooted today I lost sound. I changed settings in alsamixer and got sound back, but master volume doesnt work and the sound quality isn't as good as it was before.. I hear subtle cra
[03:10] <Jump86> cks and pops at random times
[03:10] <fevel> I installed vmware workstation and it broke packages
[03:10] <fevel> can someone help me fix apt-get
[03:11] <Eagleray> fevel: which packages specifically?
[03:11] <nakedLefty> crane_: thanks - hopefully i'll be logging in here via opera and Ubuntu in a short while
[03:11] <N-J> doomster, I need to switch back to windows for that
[03:11] <Eagleray> fevel: what is wrong with apt-get?
[03:11] <nakedLefty> :D
[03:11] <fevel> Eagleray it returns an error code 2
[03:11] <crane_> nakedLefty: Good Luck!
[03:11] <N-J> doomster, we're close though
[03:11] <nakedLefty> crane_: does luck really have anything to do with it? ;(
[03:12] <fevel> Eagleray it tells me to run apt-get -f install to fix it
[03:12] <Eagleray> fevel: you need to give me more info. What, precisely, are you running to cause error 2? What is the accompanying message?
[03:12] <crane_> nakedLefty: sometimes...lol
[03:12] <crane_> :)
[03:12] <Eagleray> fevel: and have you run 'apt-get -f install'?
[03:12] <nakedLefty> crane_  well that makes me feel a lot more at ease :|
[03:12] <crane_> ;)
[03:12] <nakedLefty> :)
[03:13] <camer0n> hm this is working :)
[03:13] <fevel> Eagleray yes...I cant tell you the exact error because im not in front of that computer this moment, but it all started because i tried to install vmware using alien to convert from the rpm package in the site
[03:13] <N-J> doomster, isn't there someting you can think of that I can enable or something
[03:13] <camer0n> gogo vnc :D
[03:14] <Eagleray> fevel: what you are describing sounds like broken dependencies. Running 'apt-get install -f' will attempt to install all required dept to get your system back to normal
[03:14] <fevel> Eagleray now if i open synaptic and try to uninstall vmweare workstation it tries to remove ``ubuntu-desktop``
[03:14] <Eagleray> fevel: if it can't find all the deps, it will print a list of what's missing so you cna go find it yourself ;)
[03:15] <Eagleray> fevel: why are you trying to remove it?
[03:15] <Eagleray> fevel: it's an easy enough issue to fix
[03:15] <fevel> Eagleray because it didnt work
[03:15] <Eagleray> fevel: lol don't give up on it
[03:16] <fevel> Eagleray ill try to fix it then
[03:16] <Eagleray> fevel: the whole reason it doesn't work is because you haven't finished setting it up
[03:16] <fevel> Eagleray im quite lazy...i was going to try qemu
[03:16] <doomster> N-J, again: how did you connect to the router while under Windows?
[03:16] <[Away] Yahooadam> why does my laptop say "no network devices found" when i have enabled the wired network connection
[03:16] <Eagleray> fevel: you won't like qemu then ;)
[03:16] <Eagleray> fevel: vmware is a LOT easier to use
[03:17] <Eagleray> fevel: most of the required deps should be available through apt-get
[03:17] <N-J> doomster, it finds the router asks me for the key and that's it
[03:17] <fevel> I have another question for the comunity...I have a toshiba satellite with 96 mb ram but when I put in the ubuntu cdrom it doesnt boot for an install
[03:18] <fevel> its all set up correct on the bios
[03:18] <Eagleray> fevel: if you _need_ to remove it, remove ubuntu-desktop first (it's only a meta-package so you shouldn't damage anything), then vmware, then reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[03:18] <fevel> and the cdrom is working...but it just boots into w98
[03:18] <aoliax> hello, what is the equivelant of ksysguard for gnome, a process manager?
[03:18] <Pici> aoliax: maybe gnome-system-monitor   I'm not sure thats what you're looking for though.
[03:19] <daveletourneau> Hello :) Petite question. Est-ce qu'il y a une explication simple qui expliquerais que je ne suis pas capable de voir l'output d'un echo quand il est insr dans mes scripts de dmarrage sous ubuntu server? Redirection de stdout peut-tre? Par exemple, si j'ajoute un echo de n'importe quoi dans /etc/rc.local, y'a absolument rioen qui se passe. J'ai aussi essay de lancer un script maison dans le rc2.d et c'est la mme chose. Le script fonctionne 
[03:19] <Eagleray> aoliax: gnome system monitor

[03:19] <aoliax> thanks also eagleray
[03:20] <zeldafan500> lol
[03:20] <zeldafan500> how many users can be on one channel o.o
[03:20] <aoliax> eagleray, i didnt realize that was available in gnome
[03:20] <Jump86> my sound requires the intel8x0 ALSA driver.. how do I verify if I have this?
[03:20] <Eagleray> aoliax: you can install anything you like in gnome - gnome is only the desktop manager
[03:21] <Eagleray> aoliax: the programs themselves are more or less independant from it (and yes, there are a few exceptions)
[03:21] <PriceChild> Eagleray, aoliax gnome is not the only desktop manager.
[03:22] <Eagleray> PriceChild: I'm aware of that - I hate gnome. DE of choice is KDE, and occasionally XFCE
[03:22] <erUSUL> Jump86: search it in /lib/modules/$(uname -r) and in the output of lsmod (if it's loaded)
[03:22] <N-J> doomster, a bit offtopic but I just downloaded a .package file and I know that I cvan use the synaptic package manager...but where should I put it first so the manager can find it
[03:22] <zeldafan500> why did you just have to fix the bot so i couldnt use !anything to make it say 'i dont know anything about anything' ? >:O
[03:23] <aoliax> well eagleray, to each his own
[03:23] <PriceChild> zeldafan500, pardon?
[03:23] <Eagleray> aoliax: yep - that's one of the reasons I like linux so much, there's so much choice
[03:23] <zeldafan500> it would have been funny
[03:24] <Zigurd> I've been googling around for a workaround for the partitioner hanging while installing on an amd64 laptop, but no luck. Anyone have a suggestion
[03:24] <fotoflo_> hmm say i want to move a file from one linux computer to another, and say that file is only writeable by root, is there a way to sudo rcp or ssh2 filetransfer?
[03:24] <PriceChild> Zigurd, incase no-one has a better idea, tried the alternate install disk?
[03:24] <Eagleray> Zigurd: try partitioning with another app first, then installing on the pre-created partitions
[03:24] <kingcobra> Zigurd, download and use the alternative install
[03:24] <zeldafan500> this is funny
[03:24] <zeldafan500> !computers
[03:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about computers - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:24] <zeldafan500> LOL
[03:24] <Eagleray> kingcobra: or that ;-)
[03:24] <AngryElf_> What kind of themes work best with the default ubunut setup?   GTK 1.x, 2.x, metacity, or something else?
[03:25] <foutrelis> zeldafan500: Please don't abuse ubotu :(
[03:25] <PriceChild> !botabuse > zeldafan500 (see the pm from ubotu)
[03:25] <zeldafan500> it was just a small joke!
[03:25] <Zigurd> That is the one I am trying
[03:25] <numan> crane: u there?
[03:25] <andys> Can someone send me an initramfs for 2.6.17-11-386 ?
[03:25] <Zigurd> I'm using the desktop-6.10-desktop-amd64
[03:26] <Zigurd> And it hangs on entering the partitioner
[03:26] <aoupi> !joking | zeldafan500
[03:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about joking - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:26] <kingcobra> Zigurd, thats not alternative
[03:26] <numan> how to get nvidia drivers installed
[03:26] <andys> My initramfs-tools is corrupt.
[03:26] <dromer> hi all, I'm having trouble getting my regular user to access my hda3 I keep getting a permissions error
[03:26] <zeldafan500> o.o
[03:26] <zeldafan500> i didnt do that!
[03:26] <numan> something like apt-get install nvidia...?
[03:26] <zeldafan500> wtf
[03:26] <PriceChild> !wtf | zeldafan500
[03:26] <ubotu> zeldafan500: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:26] <kingcobra> show me the link to where you downloaded your disk
[03:26] <kingcobra> Zigurd,
[03:27] <Zigurd> OK. I also did try the feisty al;ternative install. Then I backed off to the 6.10 install that the download page provides for amd64
[03:27] <numan> !nvidia
[03:27] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:27] <Zigurd> I get the same result from all of them
[03:27] <Eagleray> andys: try 'apt-get clean && apt-get install --reinstall initramfs-tools'
[03:27] <kingcobra> Zigurd, show me the link where you dld it
[03:27] <Eagleray> andys: then repeat whatever it was you were trying to do that needed an initramfs rebuild
[03:28] <Zigurd> This is where I got the 7.04 alt: http://osmirrors.cerias.purdue.edu/pub/ubuntu-releases/7.04/
[03:28] <zeldafan500> i waa rly high last night lol
[03:28] <zeldafan500> *was
[03:28] <andys> eagleray:  Ok, will do. Never done apt-get clean before.
[03:28] <Zigurd> http://osmirrors.cerias.purdue.edu/pub/ubuntu-releases/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-alternate-amd64.iso
[03:28] <PriceChild> Zigurd, this is =< Edgy only. Feisty support in #ubuntu+1
[03:28] <Eagleray> andys: apt-get clean purges all cached .deb packages from your system
[03:29] <PriceChild> !offtopic > zeldafan500 (see the pm from ubotu)
[03:29] <Jump86> I think my ALSA modules are not loading correctly.. in lsmod it shows up at snd_mixer_oss  (shouldn't that be alsa?"
[03:29] <Zigurd> OK, so have people had luck with the Edgy alt installer?
[03:29] <Eagleray> andys: means on the (very remote) chance that one of the downloaded packages is corrupt, it'll force a redownload
[03:29] <Zigurd> On amd64?
[03:29] <kingcobra> Zigurd, use edgy for the moment because its more stable or move to #ubuntu+1
[03:29] <Eagleray> andys: how did you manage to corrupt it
[03:29] <Eagleray> andys: ?
[03:30] <kingcobra> Zigurd, yes of course thousands have had luck with it
[03:30] <Zigurd> Yes. I would like to get any Ubuntu on that machine now. Thanks all, I will try the Edgy alt install, and see how that goes.
[03:30] <kingcobra> Zigurd, yes
[03:31] <benchaz> hey
[03:31] <Eagleray> benchaz: hey, do you have a question?
[03:31] <benchaz> anybody know how to dualboot ubuntu with windows, starting with a ubuntu setup?
[03:31] <benchaz> like
[03:31] <benchaz> my comptuer has ubuntu
[03:31] <benchaz> and windows now
[03:31] <benchaz> but my windows is corrupted
[03:32] <benchaz> badly
[03:32] <Eagleray> benchaz: yes. You will need to reinstall the grub mbr after installing windows
[03:32] <olimpico> Is it possible to install kubuntu remotely through the console?
[03:32] <benchaz> eagleray:sweet
[03:32] <andys> Eagleray: I cannot use my debian package tools as 1 install script needs to be completed first.  The only way I can fix that is by running letting the script run update-initramfs-tools.  I cant do that because my initramfs-tools is corrupt.  Long loop of problems <_<
[03:32] <zeldafan500> sup
[03:32] <zeldafan500> i gtg
[03:32] <zeldafan500> !being smart
[03:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about being smart - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:32] <Eagleray> andys: why can't you force it to install anyway and ignore any issues?
[03:33] <benchaz> Eagleray: so how do i get to ubuntu after i install windows?
[03:33] <Eagleray> benchaz: after installing windows, boot from a livecd - not too sure what you have, but a lot of them have a 'fix bootloader' option on them
[03:33] <andys> eagleray: How can I?  In order to install it i need working initram-fs tools?
[03:33] <camer0n> how do i get tightvnc to connect to my current x session? i installed it and it is just making another session :S
[03:33] <Eagleray> benchaz: then just reboot ;-)
[03:34] <benchaz> Eagleray: sweeeeet
[03:34] <benchaz> Eagleray: that simple
[03:34] <Eagleray> andys: leave the current problem in a half-installed state
[03:34] <benchaz> Eagleray: thanks tones
[03:34] <Eagleray> andys: and fix initramfs-tools
[03:34] <Eagleray> benchaz: np
[03:34] <naked> crane_:  ??
[03:34] <foutrelis> benchaz: Another way to do it: Reinstall windows and then use Super Grub Disk to fix your MBR :)
[03:34] <camer0n> can anyone help?
[03:34] <Eagleray> andys: then once you've fixed initramfs-tools, fix the problem
[03:34] <kingcobra> what are the options you need in fstab for a usb hd partition to mount at startup with full permissions for me and not just root
[03:35] <Eagleray> andys: I can't remember the command to force it, but it is there
[03:35] <Eagleray> try man apt-get and man dpkg
[03:35] <benchaz> Eagleray: thanks
[03:35] <foutrelis> kingcobra: Checking..
[03:35] <kingcobra> i have looked at man mount and in lots of ubuntu docs but cant figure it out exactly
[03:35] <kingcobra> foutrelis, thanks very much
[03:35] <benchaz> Eagleray: for windows installation, there is a way to install on one partition right?
[03:35] <Eagleray> andys: try man apt-get and man dpkg
[03:35] <numan> eagleray: how to set the screen resolution while my screen is flickering
[03:35] <Eagleray> benchaz: windows can ONLY install on one partition
[03:35] <unimatrix9> hello all..
[03:35] <naked> crane_:  when i reboot i get the "loading grub stage1.5" followed by "grub loading . please wait" and then "error 17"
[03:36] <unimatrix9> hows it going?
[03:36] <Eagleray> numan: what do you mean?
[03:36] <benchaz> Eagleray yea your right
[03:36] <naked> crane_: you got some esplanim' to do :)
[03:36] <benchaz> Eagleray tahnks
[03:36] <naked> esplanin' even
[03:36] <Eagleray> benchaz: no worries
[03:36] <foutrelis> kingcobra: For me it's: /media/hda1 ntfs umask=222,utf8 0 1
[03:36] <unimatrix9> what would i use to do newsgroups and use downloads in newsgroups?
[03:36] <foutrelis> kingcobra: So I think that umask=222 does the trick :)
[03:37] <benchaz> g2g
[03:37] <numan> eagleray: i want to set the resolution to 1024x768 60 Hz 32 bit
[03:37] <cyt> Hi all, Could anyone tell me what's the difference between the update-manager and aptitude dist-upgrade/apt-get dist-upgrade?
[03:37] <Eagleray> numan: I understand that you want to change it, but what do you mean by "while my screen is flickering"?
[03:37] <Answer> how can i check the battery level from the command line?
[03:37] <numan> eagleray: i tried screen resolution in system>prefrences
[03:38] <Answer> cyt, update-manager has a gui
[03:38] <[Away] Yahooadam> how can i install the stuff i need on ubuntu to compile stuff without a network connection ?
[03:38] <kingcobra> foutrelis, ok ill try that
[03:38] <Answer> [Away] Yahooadam, download it somewhere else and burn a cd
[03:38] <cyt> Answer: Thx :)
[03:38] <freanki> hi, glxinfo crashed with a segmentation fault when I install the nvidia-glx-legacy drivers for my GeForce4 card :/ I'm using Ubuntu 7.04
[03:38] <foutrelis> kingcobra: If it doesn't work just come back again and someone more experienced than me will be able to help you further.
[03:38] <Eagleray> numan: what is preventing you from using that to change it?
[03:38] <kingcobra> foutrelis, do you know what happens if you turn on the comp without the usb hd on and then turn it on later
[03:39] <numan> eagleray: when i type into i see whole screen refreshing the chat window everytime a line comes up
[03:39] <[Away] Yahooadam> agh this is driving me nuts, wired network adapter wont work. wireless needs drivers which need to be compiled
[03:39] <foutrelis> kingcobra: It should auto-mount I think.
[03:39] <naked> anybody.... when i have installed Ubuntu 6.10 and when i reboot i get the "loading grub stage1.5" followed by "grub loading . please wait" and then "error 17" what can i do to "easily" fix this
[03:39] <Eagleray> numan: sounds like you have no proper graphics drivers ;-)
[03:39] <kingcobra> foutrelis, thanks for helping
[03:39] <numan> eagleray: when i click apply i automatically logged out
[03:39] <foutrelis> kingcobra: You're welcome.
[03:40] <Eagleray> numan: if it's flickering that much, it means it's trying to render everything in software
[03:40] <kingcobra> foutrelis, i thought you were reading this from your fstab no?
[03:40] <Eagleray> numan: try editing xorg.conf directly
[03:40] <foutrelis> kingcobra: I read my /etc/fstab for that umask=222 option.
[03:40] <Eagleray> numan: (/etc/X11/xorg.conf)
[03:40] <kkerwin> Hmm. For some reason, my /usr partition is now mounted read-only. I didn't ever enter a command to mark it as that, and I can't find anything in my logs to suggest why. Is there any way to fix the /usr mount without having to reboot, and any ideas why it was marked read only in the first place?
[03:40] <aKKiLLa> quick someone tell me the best torrent client to use in ubunut
[03:40] <naked> please... ubuntu community you're my only hope...
[03:40] <Eagleray> numan: the 'Screen' section is the one you need to worry about
[03:40] <Answer> naked, Grub error 17: Cannot mount selected partition.  check your menu.lst file to make sure it is pointed to the right harddrive and partition
[03:41] <kingcobra> foutrelis, oh right but your not sure what happens with a usb hd?
[03:41] <numan> eagleray: how to solve it, i also tried synaptic package manager to download nvidia-glx and installed it
[03:41] <Eagleray> kkerwin: read-only to root as well?
[03:41] <naked> Answer: okay, and i can do this from the livecd?
[03:41] <erUSUL> naked: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/grub-error-guide.xml
[03:41] <foutrelis> kingcobra: Is Ubuntu installed on the external usb hd?
[03:41] <kkerwin> Eagleray: No.
[03:41] <kingcobra> foutrelis, it works for your internal hd partition
[03:41] <kingcobra> foutrelis, no
[03:41] <Answer> naked, you can do it from the grub boot up screen - go to edit or whatever
[03:42] <foutrelis> kingcobra: Hmmm. When you plug in your usb hd what happens?
[03:42] <numan> eagleray: how to edit it with nano?
[03:42] <kingcobra> foutrelis, at the moment nothing
[03:42] <Eagleray> kkerwin: /usr should ALWAYS be read-only to every user except root
[03:42] <naked> Answer: okay so when the error popsup i can hit some magical combination of keys and get a grub-editor?
[03:42] <Eagleray> numan: 'nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[03:42] <numan> is it nano /etc/x11/xorg.conf?
[03:42] <Eagleray> numan: nano -w
[03:42] <numan> ok
[03:43] <Eagleray> numan: the -w is important, if you forget it nano will wrap your lines
[03:43] <kkerwin> Eagleray: Sorry, thought you meant the root partition
[03:43] <numan> ok but what to edit?
[03:43] <kkerwin> Eagleray: It is read only to root.
[03:43] <foutrelis> kingcobra: My usb flash disks get recognized when I plug them in. I have not tried a hd though.
[03:43] <Eagleray> numan: edit the 'Screen' section
[03:43] <Answer> Eagleray, numan,  nano -Bw will make a Backup file and no Word wrap :)
[03:44] <Eagleray> Answer: indeed, but it's more sensible to make a manual backup
[03:44] <kingcobra> foutrelis, sure ill try the 222 thanx very much
[03:44] <Eagleray> Answer: I've had stuff clobber auto-backups before
[03:44] <numan> will i have to be as root?
[03:44] <will_> How do I install Beryl in Edgy?
[03:44] <foutrelis> kingcobra: You're welcome. I wish I could help further.
[03:44] <kkerwin> !beryl | will_
[03:44] <ubotu> will_: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:44] <Eagleray> kkerwin: what does /etc/mtab say about it?
[03:45] <kkerwin> rw
[03:45] <kingcobra> foutrelis,  tis ok
[03:45] <will_> kkerwin, I need to know hot to install.
[03:45] <kkerwin> will_:Uhm, try searching at wiki.ubuntu.com
[03:45] <Eagleray> kkerwin: what does 'touch /usr/testfile' output?
[03:45] <kkerwin> will_: You'll find a wealth of info there.
[03:46] <kkerwin> Eagleray: touch: cannot touch `test': Read-only file system
[03:46] <will_> kkerwin, K. Thanks.

[03:48] <IdleOne> will_, /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:48] <Eagleray> kkerwin: you'll need to remount it
[03:48] <Eagleray> kkerwin: a reboot is best, but if you really need to you can remount without rebooting
[03:48] <bhavi_bond> then how to TOPICLOCK?
[03:49] <Eagleray> kkerwin: run 'umount -L /usr && mount /usr'
[03:49] <tomek_> anyone from Poland here ?
[03:49] <IdleOne> bhavi_bond, www.freenode.org has all that information...read!
[03:49] <Eagleray> kkerwin: -L means 'lazy', all things currently using the existing mount get to keep it, everything else uses the new mount
[03:49] <kkerwin> -L is an invalid option.
[03:50] <Eagleray> kkerwin: hang on, looking at the manpage - I must be remembering wrong
[03:50] <kkerwin> -l There we go.
[03:50] <numan> eagleray: here the details of screen section in xorg.conf file--> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14720/
[03:50] <Eagleray> kkerwin: wrong case :$
[03:50] <Eagleray> numan: and what screen resolution & refresh do you want?
[03:51] <Kuutio> Hmm. Is there anyone here who'd want to help me with my Ubuntu? Using Edgy, with nvidia drivers and a 32" lcd tv on a dvi->hdmi cable, and for some reason I cannot use any other resolution than 1024x768
[03:51] <numan> eagleray: 1024x768 60hz
[03:51] <kkerwin> Eagleray: Run mount again: mount: /dev/disk/by-uuid/421679a2-333b-4fb5-9d6c-0f2ea72d3c3a already mounted or /usr busy
[03:51] <will_> If I have a pentium I'm Intel, right?
[03:51] <kkerwin> Eagleray: So I try to unmount again: umount: /usr: not mounted
[03:51] <numan> eagleray:i am not sure about refresh rate coz i am using lcd screen
[03:52] <Steve^> Can I resize an NTFS partition from within Ubuntu? (Without another live CD?)
[03:52] <kkerwin> Eagleray: mount -f worked.
[03:52] <Eagleray> kkerwin: careful with that!
[03:52] <kkerwin> Eagleray: Huh. but it didn't actually mount it.
[03:52] <Eagleray> numan: remove "1280x1024" "1152x864" from line 27
[03:52] <Eagleray> save
[03:53] <Eagleray> then restart X
[03:53] <Steve^> And how much linux swap should I have?
[03:53] <kkerwin> Eagleray: Aggh. I gotta get to class. I will be back in an hour.
[03:53] <crane_> naked: sorry man, Work keeps pulling me away
[03:53] <tomek_> can i ask some hardware/tech problems questions here relating Ubu6.10 ?
[03:53] <will_> Does Compiz = Beryl?
[03:53] <crane_> naked: I dropped back and read
[03:53] <Eagleray> kkerwin: I'll be gone by then - it's 1:53am here
[03:53] <Eagleray> kkerwin: just reboot the damn thing ;-)
[03:53] <crane_> naked: also try http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=120802
[03:54] <Eagleray> kkerwin: depending on the situation, mount -o bind may also work
[03:54] <Eagleray> kkerwin: (i.e. mount /elsewhere, then bind it to /usr)
[03:54] <numan> eagleray: i have to remove it for all depths or only 24?
[03:54] <crane_> naked: it may be easier to you the live CD to edit Grub config, it will just take longer and more reboots.
[03:54] <Steve^> I let ubuntu do the partitions itself. Might I ask why it gave itself half my ram, rather than twice it?
[03:54] <Steve^> (Which is probably why hibernation fails 50% of the time)
[03:55] <gils> no upgrades today then?
[03:55] <erUSUL> !ask | tomek
[03:55] <ubotu> tomek: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:55] <Eagleray> Steve^: because it probably doesn't need twice your ram's worth of swap ;-)
[03:55] <Eagleray> Steve^: generally linux will use all available memory before swapping
[03:55] <Steve^> Eagleray, is the swap where my hibernation goes?
[03:55] <Answer> naked, when you boot up go into the grub menu and edit the line so that it has the right /dev/hdd1 partition
[03:55] <i0null> Linux Genuine Advantage doesn't work on Fiesty Beta
[03:55] <Eagleray> numan: should only need 24 - assuming that's the depth you normally use
[03:55] <kingcobra> can somebody please show me somewhere explaining umask options
[03:56] <Steve^> Often when I try to hibernate, some message flashes (I see the word swap, not much else) and it goes back to login
[03:56] <kingcobra> i cant find it on google, ubuntu docs or man pages

[03:58] <Eagleray> !mozilla _ lubeque
[03:58] <Shafto> MrVincent, However, run 'winecfg' and go to audio and make sure OSS is choosen
[03:58] <Eagleray> !mozilla | lubeque
[03:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mozilla - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:58] <mt3> Hello
[03:59] <Eagleray> mt3: hi, do you have a question?
[03:59] <mt3> Me and my brother have a Pentium III 1GHz / 256MB RAM / 10GB HDD machine
[03:59] <lubeque> ineed install mozilla firefox in my ubuntu
[03:59] <unimatrix9> whats the difference between bittorrent and bittorrent-gui?
[03:59] <mt3> We overheard my mum asking my dad if she could buy us a Core 2 Extreme computer
[03:59] <Kuutio> Hmm. Is there anyone here who'd want to help me with my Ubuntu? Using Edgy, with nvidia drivers and a 32" lcd tv on a dvi->hdmi cable, and for some reason I cannot use any other resolution than 1024x768.
[03:59] <mt3> And my dad said not until our current computer is no longer usable
[03:59] <Eagleray> lubeque: start adept, choose firefox, and click apply ;-)
[03:59] <Eagleray> lubeque: easy :D
[03:59] <mt3> How can we kill it, without it being obvious
[03:59] <bhavi_bond> hello
[03:59] <rsthree> mt3, drop your current computer off a cliff :D  will that work? :D
[04:00] <blippe> unimatrix9: bittorrent is for the terminal, the -gui uses the other and presents a nice grafical interface
[04:00] <Eagleray> lubeque: apternatively, type 'apt-get install firefox' in a hsell
[04:00] <unimatrix9> lubeque , just download it from their site ( or do apt-get install firefox ) but it should be there by default
[04:00] <Shafto> mt3, Ummm rip bits out of it?
[04:00] <bhavi_bond> pls help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[04:00] <Eagleray> lubeque: *shell
[04:00] <mt3> No, he won't get it if he thinks we broke it
[04:00] <numan> eagleray: ??? how to sudo?
[04:00] <Answer> mt3, go into the bios and overclock it until it burns out
[04:00] <mt3> Shafto: He will know. We need a way of doing it so it just kills the hardware with no physical signs...
[04:00] <unimatrix9> blippe, if i download torrents i get an gui? so whats different?
[04:00] <crane_> mt3: remove the hard drive and rub it vigorously on the carpet or a cat.
[04:00] <bhavi_bond> hello
[04:00] <Eagleray> numan: 'sudo <command>'
[04:00] <rsthree> HAHA
[04:00] <Eagleray> numan: or type 'sudo su', then your other stuff
[04:01] <mt3> crane_: What will that do
[04:01] <fr0g> hey sexy people
[04:01] <unimatrix9> hi fr0g
[04:01] <Eagleray> mt3: you could always be honest
[04:01] <fr0g> is it always this busy in her O.o
[04:01] <Eagleray> mt3: honesty goes a long way
[04:01] <fr0g> **here
[04:01] <Eagleray> fr0g: yep
[04:01] <crane_> if you build up a static charge it will destroy the hard drive
[04:01] <fr0g> lol
[04:01] <Shafto> mt3, PC components hate static :)
[04:01] <Answer> mt3, and magnets
[04:01] <Eagleray> fr0g: do you have a question? This isn't a social channel
[04:01] <mt3> Magnets aye
[04:02] <mt3> Where shall I put a magnet
[04:02] <Answer> ubuntu-offtopic
[04:02] <herdi> Hey everyone, got a lil problem: I did a "sudo rm -drf /chroot/" :) and managed to delete up to 18GB from home. Is there any way to see what was actually deleted? So far I can only see one big directory missing. Is it possible to find out its size from e.g. slocate.db or some other place? Apparently there is no undelete for ext3?
[04:02] <Eagleray> Answer: Not really, most components will quite happily survive a magnet :p
[04:02] <crane_> mt3: I like the overclock idea. Have some fun while killing it!
[04:02] <udaiy> ha..........
[04:02] <numan> eagleray: i edited it now what?
[04:02] <IdleOne> Shafto, Answer and mt3 you discussing how to break a computer? that has to be anti CoC
[04:02] <fr0g> Eagleray: yeas :D I put a file in \var\www and on my other computer it says I don't have the perms
[04:02] <mt3> crane_: Ok, how do I do that?
[04:03] <Eagleray> fr0g: are you root?
[04:03] <mt3> anti CoC? What's that xD

[04:05] <snerge> tnx PriceChild
[04:05] <mt3> So where shall I put a magnet to permenantly and completely destroy the computer
[04:05] <Eagleray> bhavi_bond: stop spamming, if you have a question ask it
[04:05] <mt3> I want to destroy the motherboard xD
[04:05] <Eagleray> bhavi_bond: otherwise shut up
[04:05] <Aaroncn> how to let archive manager support rar?
[04:05] <IdleOne> !rar | Aaroncn
[04:05] <ubotu> Aaroncn: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[04:05] <Alam_Ubuntu> Aaroncn, install unrar or rar
[04:05] <herdi> anyone?
[04:05] <fr0g> Eagleray: but I thought it's for the web/network, so what's the use if I can't access it from another PC?
[04:05] <Eagleray> fr0g: type 'sudo su'
[04:06] <Eagleray> fr0g: then change what you want to change
[04:06] <kingcobra> Eagleray, none of those pages describe the umask options
[04:06] <Aaroncn> ubotu, thanks.
[04:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thanks. - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:06] <Aaroncn> Alam_Ubuntu, thanks.
[04:06] <rsthree> :D
[04:06] <kingcobra> is there nothing that describes all of the umask options
[04:06] <numan> eagleray: it changed the resolution but screen refreshing is still not solved
[04:06] <kingcobra> Eagleray,
[04:06] <Eagleray> fr0g: you should be able to access it via a web browser by pointing it at http://yourpc
[04:06] <s0nix> Hi, i got 2 problem :) .... First, why my XGL cannot run under well linux-image-generic (686) BUT it's run perfectly with beryl under the linux-image-386 ? Secondly, why my SWAP partition is no more recognized
[04:07] <bhavi_bond> i have been here asking this q for 45 mins
[04:07] <Eagleray> numan: you'll have to get someone else to help with that sorry, I can't remember the refresh rate settings
[04:07] <unimatrix9> what?
[04:07] <bhavi_bond> Patience test
[04:07] <Answer> bhavi_bond, ask your question now in one line or less
[04:07] <bhavi_bond> Channel [<#linuxmobile>]  does not exist Error when i try to register
[04:07] <Eagleray> kingcobra: ah, I was hoping they would
[04:07] <fr0g> Eagleray: I get forbidden when try to open it from my internal IP
[04:07] <Eagleray> kingcobra: hang on, I'll find something better
[04:07] <Answer> bhavi_bond, that channel does not exist.  try another channel.
[04:07] <IdleOne> bhavi_bond, try /msg chanserv help
[04:08] <Eagleray> fr0g: chmod it to 0755
[04:08] <numan> eagleray: its not due to refresh rate i think its due to display driver bcoz same thing happens in windows
[04:08] <Eagleray> fr0g: 'chmod 0755 -R /var/www'
[04:08] <jhasse> Is there a better free voip client then ekiga?
[04:08] <crane_> bhavi_bond: so have you joined that channel?
[04:08] <Eagleray> numan: windows does not use the same driver
[04:08] <bhavi_bond> yes
[04:08] <udaiy> gggg
[04:09] <crane_> bhavi_bond: and you are trying to register it?
[04:09] <fr0g> Eagleray: cool :D thanks :D and bye :D
[04:09] <Eagleray> kingcobra: is this what you're after? ----> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask
[04:09] <mt3> Can someone please help me
[04:09] <kingcobra> Eagleray, thanks very much
[04:09] <bhavi_bond> yes
[04:09] <fr0g> yay for ubuntu
[04:09] <Eagleray> kingcobra: np
[04:09] <numan> eagleray: i mean that due to driver incompatibilty or something else but i have no problem with windows or debian with this card
[04:09] <Eagleray> numan: which driver are you using?
[04:10] <crane_> bhavi_bond: I don't think this is an ubuntu problem.
[04:10] <Eagleray> numan: it wil be listed in the 'Device' section
[04:10] <mt3> I have a  wireless card which works out of the box in Ubuntu and won't work in any other OS xD
[04:10] <numan> i dont know but i installed one from synaptic package manager for nvidia-glx
[04:10] <Eagleray> numan: then change the driver in xorg.conf to 'nvidia'
[04:11] <Eagleray> numan: that should fix it
[04:11] <andys> eagleray: I now have the command to force the offending packages to be removed.
[04:11] <Eagleray> andys: excellent :D
[04:11] <floating> Hi. I installed easyubuntu. Then I tagged a list of components to install, now it asks permission to install them, but the list became so long, that I cannot see the OK button below, if there is one. I cannot resize the window from the upside either, where should I resize it. (xubuntu)
[04:12] <kingcobra> Eagleray, that doesnt really explain to me what umask=0222 and umask=0002 etc are
[04:12] <andys> Everyone: should I remove usplash ubuntu theme?  Its what wants a initramfs regen/
[04:12] <KDan> hi, my Xorg process seems to be going up and down between 100% cpu usage and 30% or so -- how can I find out what it's actually doing?
[04:12] <kingcobra> Eagleray, sorry, i looked at that page 10 mins ago actually
[04:12] <unimatrix9> floating , just press enter?
[04:12] <unimatrix9> will not work?
[04:12] <Daverocks> KDan: what video drivers are you using?
[04:12] <herdi> Did a "sudo rm -drf /chroot/" Is it possible to find out what was deleted (from slocate.db or some other place)?
[04:12] <KDan> Daverocks: nvidia
[04:13] <floating> not work unimatrix9
[04:13] <Eagleray> andys, kingcobra, numan, foutrelis: It's 2:12am here and I'm seriously tired, so I'm going to bed. Good luck solving your issues.
[04:13] <Daverocks> KDan: do you have the cpu swings when you use the nv drivers?
[04:13] <KDan> nah
[04:13] <Eagleray> kingcobra: 0002 is public write only, 0222 is write to all users
[04:13] <kingcobra> Eagleray, ok no prob
[04:13] <andys> eagleray: thanks for ur help
[04:13] <KDan> it seems to be just the Xorg process, and has only done this today so far
[04:13] <Eagleray> andys: no worries, good luck
[04:13] <Daverocks> KDan: so previous days, with the nvidia drivers, it was fine?
[04:13] <foutrelis> Eagleray: Huh? :P
[04:14] <KDan> i could try just restarting X, but for future reference I'm wondering whether there's a way to find out what it's actually doing
[04:14] <KDan> Daverocks: yes
[04:14] <napsy_> in which package is the 'write' program?
[04:14] <andys> so everyone, is it ok to remove ubuntu-usplash theme?
[04:14] <numan> thanks eagleray for your kind help
[04:14] <Daverocks> KDan: did you change anything today?
[04:14] <KDan> (plus if i just restart X it'll kill my music *grin*)
[04:14] <Eagleray> foutrelis: what did 'Huh?' refer to?
[04:14] <andys> the sky wont fall will it?
[04:15] <KDan> yes, i uninstalled ubuntu-desktop and installed xubuntu-desktop instead
[04:15] <KDan> finished off the switch to Xfce basically
[04:15] <foutrelis> Eagleray: You said my nick before. Anyway, good sleep. :)
[04:15] <KDan> before that i had Xfce and some bits and pieces of gnome running in parallel
[04:15] <Eagleray> foutrelis: did I?
[04:15] <Eagleray> foutrelis: not intentionally anyway. I'll sleep well ;-) 'night
[04:15] <foutrelis> Eagleray: Yup. Nevermind. :)
[04:16] <herdi> any way to see the size of a deleted folder? from slocate.db for example?
[04:16] <herdi> anyone?
[04:16] <stdin> anyone help me get the internet working on edgy
[04:16] <kingcobra> can somebody please show me somewhere explaining umask options
[04:16] <kingcobra> i cant find it on google, ubuntu docs or man pages
[04:16] <floating> unimatrix9: I chose to tag only couple at a time, and now I can do it. But I suggest this could be fiexed. It is strange that I cannot resize window from upside
[04:17] <crane_> kingcobra: are you editing fstab?
[04:17] <stdin> anyone help me get the internet working on edgy
[04:17] <KDan> kingcobra: http://www.unix.org.ua/orelly/networking/puis/ch05_03.htm
[04:17] <kingcobra> crane_, yes but i would like a page explaining umask options
[04:17] <kingcobra> KDan, ill look now
[04:18] <sven> Hi kingcobra, did you understand german? I have a Link explaining umask but it's in german language
[04:18] <kingcobra> sven, no sorry
[04:18] <stdin> anyone help me get the internet working on edgy its a cable modem
[04:18] <Daverocks> KDan: i'm not sure if removing ubuntu-desktop removes anything
[04:18] <Daverocks> KDan: because it's a meta-package
[04:19] <KDan> Daverocks: i don't think it does
[04:19] <KDan> oh it did remove stuff
[04:19] <Eagleray_sleep> kingcobra: http://www.tech-faq.com/umask.shtml
[04:19] <Daverocks> KDan: what did you remove it with?
[04:19] <numan> anybody know how to get the mediaplayer codecs for files like wma,wmv.mp3
[04:19] <DarkLegacy> Hey guys, I want to install Ubuntu on a machine that has an Nvidia RAID. When installing via Windows XP - I can insert the raid drivers into the floppy drive and allow the system to continue installation that way, but how do I do it with Ubuntu?
[04:19] <andys> Dont metapackages remove there depenencies?
[04:19] <KDan> well, put it this way: i managed to rid myself of nautilus and evolution and reclaim about 300M of RAM
[04:19] <kingcobra> Eagleray_sleep, thanks very much
[04:19] <Answer> sven, kingcobra, Eagleray_sleep you can translate urls with http://babelfish.altavista.com
[04:19] <stdin> anyone help me get the internet working on edgy its a cable modem
[04:19] <kingcobra> Answer, yes but not always perfectly
[04:20] <KDan> Daverocks: i don't think that the ubuntu-desktop thing is related to the Xorg problem - in any case, i won't know until i find out WHAT Xorg is doing
[04:20] <Daverocks> KDan: hang on, how was nautilus running if you started an Xfce session?
[04:20] <DarkLegacy> Anyone?
[04:20] <KDan> Daverocks: that is not relevant at this point
[04:20] <Answer> KDan, linux uses up as much memory as possible as a rule.  if you run "top" it will show you the difference between "active" and "inactive" memory.  inactive is stuff that linux has loaded "just in case" you need it
[04:20] <KDan> Daverocks: in short, i botched up the xfce install before
[04:20] <Eagleray_sleep> kingcobra: is that actually what you were looking for?
[04:20] <Daverocks> KDan: yep, so the problem kind of arose as you installed xfce
[04:20] <KDan> nah
[04:20] <KDan> i installed Xfce ages ago
[04:20] <Daverocks> KDan: actually, it could be xfce's window manager's compositor
[04:21] <KDan> but only realised recently i still had loads of bits of crap using up my memory from the gnome day
[04:21] <KDan> Daverocks: how can I tell whether it is that?
[04:21] <Daverocks> KDan: it does all the shadows and transparency and stuff, and it was eating up my resources earlier too
[04:21] <KDan> it's true that I enabled the compositor recently
[04:21] <KDan> it was working fine for several hours
[04:21] <Eagleray_sleep> ok, I'm really going this time!
[04:21] <KDan> bad code in the compositor?
[04:21] <crane_> kingcobra: http://theory.uwinnipeg.ca/UNIXhelp/examples/umask.html
[04:21] <floating> uwaah. easyubuntu feels like a mischoice. I started installing with it, and now it says failed on many of the files i should download. now when some of them failed, the download progress is stuck, and nothing happens. i may cancel it, but i have downloadfed random files from random things, i guess. I hope I can undo these changes.
[04:21] <kingcobra> Eagleray_sleep, its getting there
[04:22] <crane_> kingcobra: http://www.hccfl.edu/pollock/Unix/OctChartE.htm
[04:22] <Daverocks> KDan: i disabled it because it was drastically lowering fps on all my 3D games
[04:22] <kingcobra> Eagleray_sleep, go to sleep man its ok
[04:22] <numan> daverocks: can you tell me how to get the media codecs for totem mplayer
[04:22] <Pici> ubotu, tell Eagleray_sleep about away
[04:22] <kingcobra> crane_, thanks
[04:22] <Daverocks> KDan: just started the window manager with the "no compositor" option or whatever
[04:22] <KDan> Daverocks: meh, this machine can't cope with 3d games :-)
[04:22] <crane_> :)
[04:22] <KDan> bah, ok. only just enabled it today
[04:22] <numan> crane_: ??
[04:22] <crane_> yes
[04:23] <KDan> i'll restart again with the compositor, and see if the runaway process occurs again. if it does, i'll disable teh compositor....
[04:23] <KDan> thanks

[04:23] <Daverocks> KDan: no problem
[04:23] <crane_> numan: edgy?

[04:24] <crane_> numan: have you looked at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[04:24] <Alanius> I have two ethernet devices
[04:24] <Alanius> I can activate them both at the same time
[04:24] <Alanius> but I can't use them both at the same time
[04:24] <crane_> numan: do not use totem, so I am not real sure
[04:25] <crane_> :)
[04:25] <Alanius> through one, my computer is connected to the router+internet, through the other, my computer is connected to another computer
[04:25] <Answer> Alanius, /sbin/route
[04:25] <numan> Crane_: i am looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[04:25] <Alanius> what does that do?
[04:25] <marc_smith> ultrahiperopsypsychiatrobuntu
[04:25] <Answer> Alanius, /sbin/route shows the routing table.  sounds like you have a problem with your default route sending all traffic to one location and nothing through the other ethernet
[04:25] <marc_smith> the mutation
[04:26] <Merijn> allright
[04:26] <Alanius> so how do I change that?
[04:26] <Merijn> I'm going to convert my server from win2000 to ubuntu
[04:26] <Merijn> which version should I get? the latest?
[04:26] <Daverocks> Merijn: yeah, why not ;)
[04:26] <El_Burro> how do i share a folder between 2 ubuntu installs?
[04:26] <jani> hi
[04:26] <Answer> Alanius, well you should have two IP Addresses right?  you need a default route to the first one with the internet and a secondary route to the second one connected to your other computer
[04:27] <Daverocks> Merijn: although feisty (7.04) is coming out in just over a week, if you want to wait :P
[04:27] <ompaul> !NFS > El_Burro
[04:27] <AngryElf_> what's the standard font format and what directory are they in?
[04:27] <Merijn> Daverocks > I heard some problems with 'the latest version' at some point
[04:27] <ompaul> El_Burro, check the message from the bot
[04:27] <Merijn> nah, the server got hacked and I'm sick of it
[04:27] <El_Burro> taa
[04:27] <squire> Merijn: highly recommend feisty fawn
[04:27] <Alanius> Answer, yes, I have two IP adresses
[04:27] <jani> can i update 5.10 to 6.10 or does it need whole new install?
[04:27] <Alanius> how do I make a secondary route?
[04:27] <Daverocks> jani: upgrade to 6.06, then upgrade to 6.10
[04:28] <Answer> Alanius, and these two ip addresses are on separate networks right?
[04:28] <ardchoille> !upgrade | jani
[04:28] <ubotu> jani: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:28] <crane_> Merijn: Ubuntu-server dapper is LTS but the newer releases will have better features
[04:28] <jani> thanks
[04:28] <Merijn> I'm sorry, what's lts?
[04:28] <Daverocks> Merijn: long term support
[04:28] <Alanius> Answer: wait a second, I have one IP address on both computers
[04:28] <crane_> Merijn: Long term support
[04:28] <Merijn> ok
[04:28] <jube> when using the ltsp, how can I configure the login screen on the client?
[04:28] <Alanius> my second ethernet device does not have an ip
[04:29] <Answer> Alanius, on the computer with two interfaces, you should have two different IPs.  one to the internet and one to your pc
[04:29] <squire> june 2011 for server edition
[04:29] <Daverocks> Merijn: if you can, wait about a week for feisty, but if you can't wait, i'd say get edgy because it has a newer kernel
[04:29] <Alanius> so I should manually set the IP for the second eth device?
[04:30] <MarkC1> Alanius: yes.
[04:30] <Answer> Alanius, yeah you will need the second interface set to an IP similar to the pc your trying to connect
[04:30] <Merijn> thanks dave, I'll go with edgy for now and see if upgrading is worth it when feisty goes final
[04:30] <Answer> Alanius, the IP for the second interface needs to be different than your first interface so that it doesn't route all traffic there
[04:30] <andys> gurus:  is it possible to re-install initramfs-tools without totaling my system?
[04:31] <Alanius> okay
[04:31] <MarkC1> Alanius: http://hk2999.livejournal.com/13372.html
[04:31] <squire> Merijn: why not get the feisy beta now?
[04:32] <foutrelis> Merijn: I would suggest a few days more for Feisty going stable. :)
[04:32] <foutrelis> *suggest waiting
[04:32] <squire> stable enough here :)
[04:32] <foutrelis> *Feisty to go stable :\
[04:33] <foutrelis> squire: Same here.. :P
[04:33] <snerge> yup
[04:33] <snerge> same here
[04:33] <rsthree> rock solid here
[04:33] <andys> Every time feisty is mentioned...Drink!
[04:33] <crane_> isn't feisty supposed to be released the 13?
[04:33] <rsthree> 19th
[04:33] <ardchoille> The 19th
[04:33] <squire> feisty is going to make a real impact istm
[04:33] <crane_> ardchoille: thanks
[04:34] <Pici> Provided that they're arent any big issues, the 19th.
[04:34] <Jani> what is feisty? D:
[04:34] <Pici> !feisty | Jani
[04:34] <ErrantEgo> anyone able to help me for a quick second?
[04:34] <ubotu> Jani: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007. Beta is out! http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta Schedule: !schedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[04:34] <crane_> squire: are you referring to the feature?
[04:34] <squire> Jani: latest ubuntu release
[04:34] <Jani> ok :)
[04:35] <squire> feisty fawn 7.04 (beta)
[04:35] <kadakas> Can I use a FAT32/NTFS partition as a normal file store partition in Ubuntu? Why can't I format partitions into NTFS in the installer/wizard ?
[04:35] <crane_> I like the migration manager, that's pretty dang sweet
[04:35] <Cyrus> hi
[04:35] <squire> crane: ?
[04:35] <squire> yeah, tis v cool
[04:35] <crane_> ?
[04:36] <davisc> kadakas: Ubuntu doesn't support write of NTFS
[04:36] <Answer> kadakas, ntfs is for windows !
[04:36] <foutrelis> kadakas: NTFS = NT File System. I don't see why you would like to use that :P
[04:36] <kadakas> foes it support FAT32 ?
[04:36] <davisc> yes
[04:36] <kadakas> i use NTFS in windows, because its a journaling fs
[04:36] <Bjweb1> i think theere is a driver somewhere for NTFS writing
[04:36] <ardchoille> NTFS = Not Today File System
[04:36] <mwalling_> if i chmod -x a file in ~/.config/autostart, will that stop it from starting next login? its not showing up in "autostarted applications" in xubuntu
[04:36] <foutrelis> kadakas: You can read/write from/to NTFS partitions.
[04:36] <squire> i think vista will have folks looking for an alternative and feisty is certainly that
[04:36] <davisc> kadakas: You can *read* NTFS in Uvunty
[04:36] <kadakas> ok, i'll use FAT32 then
[04:37] <crane_> kadakas: there are ways to write to it but it could cause damage to the ntfs file system.  **Not Suggested**
[04:37] <kadakas> ok
[04:37] <foutrelis> ntfs-3g | kadakas  :)
[04:37] <foutrelis> !ntfs-3g | kadakas  :)
[04:37] <ubotu> kadakas  :): 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)
[04:37] <kadakas> then FAT32 it is :)
[04:37] <Cosmo_>  whenever I use synaptic to install or uninstall packages it tries to reinstall the vmware player and fails, how do I fix this?
[04:37] <squire> ntfs-3g works v well ime
[04:37] <Cyrus> i am using tvtime but there are mutiple lines just on the right side, how can i fix that
[04:38] <ubuntu_> ubuntu-it
[04:38] <ErrantEgo> i'm using ubuntu as a webserver (my buddy set it up for me)...the thing is, I don't know the first thing about ubuntu. I would like to know how much space I have left on the hard drive. What command, if any, do i input?
[04:38] <kadakas> df -h
[04:38] <ErrantEgo> kadakas: was that directed toward me?
[04:38] <kingcobra> crane_, do umask values always have 3 digits
[04:38] <kadakas> ErrantEgo: yes
[04:38] <ardchoille> ErrantEgo: yes
[04:38] <mwalling_> if i chmod -x a file in ~/.config/autostart, will that stop it from starting next login? its not showing up in "autostarted applications" in xubuntu
[04:38] <ErrantEgo> kadakas: k.
[04:39] <ubuntu_> join #ubuntu-it
[04:39] <ErrantEgo> are there any webpages out there that show basic apache commands?
[04:39] <ErrantEgo> im completely stupid when it comes to ubuntu :(
[04:39] <squire> anyone running webmin?
[04:39] <ardchoille> !webmin
[04:39] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.

[04:40] <Cyrus> can any one help me with tvtime
[04:40] <crane_> kingcobra: don't quote me kn that either. I haven't messed with them in a while

[04:42] <dystopianray> blubbibla: is the pcspkr module loaded?
[04:42] <squire> or do we rely on vnc?
[04:42] <Alanius> oh, LinuxMint is just great! It stopped responding while I was installing it and now it gives me a error everytime I want to tweak the network
[04:43] <blubbibla> dystopianray: where can i enable it?
[04:43] <ardchoille> squire: Well, if you rely totally on a gui for things and x breaks for some reason, you'll be lost without knowing the cli way to fix things.
[04:43] <TheVault> Can someone help me really quick
[04:43] <dystopianray> blubbibla: try the following: lsmod | grep pcspkr
[04:43] <jatt> !ask
[04:43] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[04:44] <TheVault> Answer: I just installed Feisty. Its showing my wifi glowing green but when I scan in the network manager or the terminal, nothing shows up. Should I go ahead and add my own drivers?
[04:44] <ikonia> Vio: because it is
[04:44] <dystopianray> blubbibla: ok so that driver is loaded, you are talking about that little speaker that is inside the computer and just beeps, right?
[04:44] <ompaul> squire, ssh or openvpn
[04:44] <foutrelis> Vio: It is spamming. End.

[04:45] <ikonia> TheVault: thats the correct place to discuss it
[04:45] <squire> ompaul: great - noted, thanks
[04:45] <ardchoille> TheVault: Perhaps no one in there is at their keyboard now?

[04:46] <ikonia> TheVault: if you are patience I'm sure ubuntu+1 will respond
[04:46] <blubbibla> bef: try nautilus's ftp-client
[04:46] <Toma-> bef: nautilus would be nicer
[04:46] <crimsun> blubbibla: pastebin the required info from http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems , and tell me the url
[04:47] <Answer> TheVault, Go to command line as super user.  Type "iwconfig"  what is the name of your wireless ethernet device?  examples are "ath0" "eth0" etc

[04:47] <bef> blubbibla: Toma-: is nautilius ftp preinstalled or in the repos
[04:47] <Answer> TheVault, type "iwlist eth1 scan"
[04:47] <jin_> hello
[04:48] <TheVault> Answer: No scan results
[04:48] <jin_> is there any word processor I can use that support the chinese language?
[04:48] <toddobryan> Is there anything other than Evolution that will access an Outlook Server through the web interface?
[04:48] <Answer> TheVault, is your ssid hidden?
[04:48] <Toma-> bef: nautilus is the thing you look at your files with in gnome
[04:48] <ikonia> guys - take it to ubuntu+1 please - this isn't the place for fesity yet
[04:48] <TheVault> Answer: nope. Maybe there is a problem or something? Should I just go ahead and add my own drivers?
[04:48] <bef> Toma-:  lol yeh, I'm having a bad night. So where can I locate the nautilus ftp client
[04:48] <jpjacobs> jin_, if you're fine with CLI, geeresh is a fully utf8 capable text editor...
[04:48] <TheVault> Answer: Mind, you this is fresh install. I have not touched anything
[04:49] <jpjacobs> i mean gereqh
[04:49] <squire> ikonia: sorry - i'm new here - noted
[04:49] <jpjacobs> geresh*
[04:49] <foutrelis> bef: Go to Places -> Connect to Server and fill in the details ;)
[04:49] <ikonia> squire: not you
[04:49] <TheVault> Answer: However I am installing all the updates though as we speak. Around 282(382mb)
[04:49] <Toma-> bef: open nautilus, hit "Ctrl L" i think to get the location op and enter the ftp ip
[04:49] <Answer> TheVault, if iwconfig and iwlist work the drivers should be ok.
[04:49] <toddobryan> bef: You should be able to open any file browser and just type ftp:// at the beginning.
[04:49] <ikonia> TheVault: please take it to ubuntu+1
[04:49] <toddobryan> Nautilus is cool that way.
[04:49] <Answer> TheVault, do you know your ssid and wep key?
[04:49] <jin_> jpjacobs, does it support SCIM?
[04:50] <Merijn> what's the best way to export mysql data from win2000 so that I can properly import it in ubuntu again?
[04:50] <Merijn> just sql commands?
[04:50] <Answer> ikonia, it seems he has a wireless config issue not a feisty issue.
[04:50] <Suurorca> jin_: pretty much any of them. you just need to configure SCIMfor ch input. dunno about spell/grammaire checking, though.
[04:50] <Answer> Merijn, try mysqldump
[04:50] <TheVault> Answer: I don't want to upset anyone in here by talking about Feisty related stuff, i am going to the ubuntu+1 channel if you wanna discuss there
[04:50] <bef> Toma-: foutrelis: toddobryan: I don't think I'm making myself clear, maybe I am, I'm wanting a client for uploading files to my website ;)
[04:50] <ikonia> Answer: but he's running fesity
[04:50] <toddobryan> Merijn: Do a mysqldump.
[04:50] <squire> ikonia: oh? what is the appropriate channel for feisty?
[04:50] <jin_> jpjacobs, sure geeresh is the right name?
[04:50] <TheVault> squire: #ubuntu+1
[04:50] <disasm> squire: #ubuntu+1
[04:50] <Toma-> bef: yep. itll do that.
[04:50] <foutrelis> bef: And what is wrong with Places -> Connect to Server? :P
[04:50] <ikonia> squire: ubuntu+1
[04:50] <toddobryan> bef: Places->Connect to Server.
[04:51] <squire> this just happens to be the default channel in xchat
[04:51] <oldude67> #ubuntu+1
[04:51] <squire> ikonia: thanks
[04:51] <bef> Toma-: foutrelis: toddobryan: thanks :)
[04:51] <Garrett> Hi all
[04:51] <foutrelis> bef: You're welcome ;)
[04:52] <toddobryan> So, back to my question...Evolution has the ability to connect to an Outlook account through the web interface.
[04:52] <toddobryan> But Evolution is *really* buggy, at least for me.
[04:52] <bandolero> configure: error: *** gzip library (libz) not found
[04:52] <toddobryan> Can anything else do the Outlook Web Access thing?
[04:52] <bandolero> whereis libz?
[04:53] <bandolero> i cant find it in the repos (apt-cache search...)
[04:53] <Garrett> I am trying to setup a client to use 10.230.121.185/24 as its default gw, but it is currently on 10.252.154.0/24 network.  I can't seem to get a static route between networks to work and then allow me to set the default gw.  Any ideas on how to do this?
[04:53] <Answer> Garrett, To add a default gateway teh command is :  /sbin/route add default gw 10.230.121.185 ethX
[04:53] <dafart__> hi there, a quick question, when I install a beta version of feisty, will it be a tough nut to crack to update to final release once it has been official 15 april ?
[04:54] <bandolero> is it zlib?
[04:54] <Toma-> dafart__: nope.
[04:54] <nakedlefty> hey ya'll finally up and running with Ubuntu
[04:54] <foutrelis> dafart__: I think that only some packages will be updated.
[04:54] <ardchoille> bandolero: zlib1g
[04:54] <Merijn> jeez, some amateur hackers took over my server
[04:54] <snerge> dafart__: you just apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[04:54] <Merijn> not even a rootkit, just a hacked serv-u install
[04:54] <Toma-> foutrelis: actually... huge amounts of packages will be updated
[04:54] <dystopianray> dafart__: I think there are several hundred MBs of updates already from the beta to now
[04:54] <bandolero> it is installed.
[04:55] <Vio> changeing back to m$.. linux is way to unstable atm with xgl+crappy ati drivers and unstable beryl
[04:55] <nakedlefty> have a slight problem though, my GFX card - any one have any experience with Ubuntu and a Radeon x1950(PRO)
[04:55] <nakedlefty> ?
[04:55] <dafart__> Toma-, foutrelis so it's just an apt-get update ?
[04:55] <bandolero> ii  zlib1g                           1.2.3-13ubuntu2                      compression library - runtime
[04:55] <s0nix> anyone use XGL with the kernel linux-image-generic
[04:55] <Toma-> dafart__: no, dist-upgrade most likely
[04:55] <jin_> 
[04:55] <dafart__> ok
[04:55] <bandolero> ardchoille: any tips?
[04:55] <foutrelis> Toma-: dist-upgrade from beta?
[04:55] <ardchoille> bandolero: No, I don't compile apps.
[04:55] <jpjacobs> jin_, no idea, i don't use neither
[04:55] <Toma-> foutrelis: yep. probably not from a RC
[04:56] <foutrelis> Toma-: Nice to know. :P Thanks
[04:56] <ardchoille> bandolero: What are you compiling? Have you checked the repos?
[04:56] <bandolero> ardchoille: partimage.
[04:56] <ardchoille> !partimage | bandolero
[04:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about partimage - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:56] <Garrett> When I try to add the gw it says... SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
[04:56] <nakedlefty> anyone??? Ubuntu and Radeon x1950PRO???
[04:56] <ardchoille> bandolero: partimage is in the repos
[04:57] <ardchoille> bandolero: It's in universe
[04:57] <ikonia> nakedlefty: whats up
[04:57] <rysiek|pl> guys, maybe a wee bit strange question, but... what is the *easiest* way to make an ad hoc switch/hub from a two-netadapters machine running *ubuntu?
[04:57] <orangefly> can someone tell me why i can access my server by ip address but not the host name....???....
[04:57] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: what you described is not a switch or a hub
[04:58] <rysiek|pl> orangefly: how did you set-up the hostname?
[04:58] <jk_> orangefly: your dns isn't working
[04:58] <Answer> orangefly, you are not on the domain.  set the dns servers in /etc/resolv.conf
[04:58] <ikonia> orangefly: you don't have dns setup
[04:58] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: well, yeah, probably I should call it a gateway
[04:58] <gRaCiOsO> good morning ppl i woud like to know how to change the ethernet's order, i had 3 ethernets card and i remove one from my pc so i have now 2 ones eth0 and eth2 i would like to put eth2 like eth1 how could i do it?
[04:58] <Answer> gRaCiOsO, /etc/iftab
[04:58] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: not really a gateway, what do you wnat to try to do
[04:59] <s0nix> is it "clean" if i install the Ubuntu 7.04 BETA with the live CD now. and upgrade to stable release the 19th ? or i should wait the stable release ?
[04:59] <ikonia> s0nix: my personal belief is that you can't upgrade to a stable version
[05:00] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: the point is, 1. temporarily I need to connect to my LAN another box (running linux); 2. I don't have any switches/hubs available and the one that the LAN is on is all used-up; 3. what I have is a machine with two network cards
[05:00] <pinchmesh> there's new code every day for 7.04... it'll auto update with the little update icon at the top of the screen
[05:00] <jk_> ikonia: that makes sense, really.  no one would expect to upgrade from xp to vista.
[05:00] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: you need a cross over cable
[05:01] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: yeah, I know, and I have one
[05:01] <pinchmesh> ubuntu is way better than xp or vista, so they don't count
[05:01] <ikonia> jk_: I'm not sure of the official response but experience tells me to stand by my stance
[05:01] <rysiek|pl> s0nix: yeah, you can install BETA now and upgrade to stable
[05:01] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: ok - so change the machines to be on the same network
[05:01] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: do you know that for a fact ?
[05:01] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: yeas, I do know that for a fact
[05:01] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: where is that documented ?
[05:01] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: done that with dapper, doing it today with feisty
[05:01] <s0nix> rysiek|pl: but is it cosidered "clean"
[05:01] <nakedlefty> ikonia: want to install some drivers so it works and is recognized by the system, also so i dont get jittery webpage viewing, not to mention soomth video playback once i get to that point
[05:02] <rysiek|pl> s0nix: what do you mean by "clean"
[05:02] <jk_> pinchmesch: right, but conceptually no one would expect that in the windows world but somehow in the linux world continuous upgrades are somehow more expected
[05:02] <ikonia> nakedlefty: have you seen the ati howto ?
[05:02] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: I would ask the other way around: where is it said that you can't
[05:02] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: its not - thats why I said my personal belief and I'm not sure of the official stance
[05:02] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: that's what upgrades are all about, we're not in windoze world now
[05:02] <s0nix> bah, nvm, i will wait the stable release :)
[05:02] <pinchmesh> yeah, it works for me.. so far, no problems here.. i just ran the update manager too
[05:02] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: no its not
[05:03] <ikonia> but its not stable yet - so how can it "work"
[05:03] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: ?
[05:03] <ikonia> (still not marked as stable in the uk)
[05:03] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: question mark to which comment ?
[05:03] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: jeez... what do you mean by "work"? I have got feisty on two boxen and it works
[05:04] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: I didn't say fesity didn't work - I said how can people be saying the upgrade to fesity works as its not marked as stable yet to upgrade to
[05:04] <nakedlefty> ikonia: nope? though noticed that the ati driver package is made for redhat nad suse???
[05:04] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: and I expect to aptitude upgrade (NOT dist-upgrade, mind you) to stable when it comes out
[05:04] <ikonia> !ati >nakedlefty
[05:04] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: I think you're confusing two upgrades
[05:04] <ikonia> nakedlefty: check the pm that ubotu sent you
[05:04] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: 1. edgy -> feisty
[05:04] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: 2. feisty BETA -> feisty STABLE
[05:05] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: no I'm not. Upgrading from the beta product to the stable package
[05:05] <pinchmesh> http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/03/upgrade-ubuntu-610-edgy-eft-to-ubuntu.html
[05:05] <Rincewind> hello
[05:05] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: 1. needs additional tools (Upgrade Manager for one) and is - IMHO - a wee bit o'hack - but it worked for me 3 times by now
[05:05] <nakedlefty> ikonia: and ubotu thanks - probably will be back in a little while with more questions :)
[05:05] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: what if a glibc bug was found and a slight upgrade had to happen between beta and stable - but glibc is that core that it breaks everything - how would that upgrade go ?
[05:06] <Rincewind> I have a problem, when I plug usb devices in, they don't show up in ubuntu anymore
[05:06] <ikonia> nakedlefty: no problem, let me know how it goes if you want help with specific questions
[05:06] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: that problem might come out also when feisty would be stable
[05:06] <ikonia> Rincewind: have a look in the syslog and see if they are being detected
[05:06] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: a bug can be discovered anytime
[05:06] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: no - as it would be stable
[05:06] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: d'oh... so let me get this straight:
[05:06] <Smerity> Rincewind, no clue who you are or what your problem is, except to say - cool name =] 
[05:07] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: apologies but I'm losing interest
[05:07] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: when you see something marked as "stable" you are 100% certain there cannot be any bugs in it?
[05:07] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: no thats not what I said
[05:07] <Rincewind> ikonia: where do I find the syslog?
[05:07] <ikonia> Rincewind: /var/log
[05:07] <Rincewind> I have ubuntu edgy
[05:07] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: so why it would be impossible to find a bug in glibc in feisty when it would be marked as stable
[05:08] <rysiek|pl> Rincewind: or type dmesg in console
[05:08] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: I didn't say it was impossible, I was trying to give a realistic example though.
[05:08] <jk_> pinchmesch: thanks for the onlyubuntu link.
[05:09] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: point is: bugs can be discovered anytime. but that is no argument against that it would be possible to do a BETA -> STABLE upgrade
[05:09] <ryanakca> how do I install flash 9 on an amd64? I've read a pile of blog entries on people who've done it, but it never says /how/
[05:09] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: I disagree, but we should perhaps not be dicsussing this in here
[05:09] <rysiek|pl> ryanakca: you need ia32libs and firefox 32bit
[05:09] <ikonia> ryanakca: flash is not supported on amd64  - it needs to be installed in a 32bit chroot or using compatability libraries on a multi-lib setup
[05:09] <rysiek|pl> ryanakca: then just d/l flash9 package from adobe (as tar.gz), untar it and copy the xpi and so to ~/.mozilla/plugins
[05:10] <bef> off topic question: anybody know how to make an ftp page public ie: ftp://209.59.175.226
[05:10] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: as thou wisheth ;)
[05:10] <jk_> pinchmesch: upgrading ubuntu to version 7.04 ... fetching file 1 of 1184 ! :)
[05:10] <Answer> bef, do you have a public ip address?
[05:10] <ikonia> bef ftp is a protocol - not a page
[05:10] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: back to the LAN-thing - so just having both machines in the same network (say 192.168.0.X) would do?
[05:10] <bef> Answer: yes.
[05:10] <ikonia> bef: join #ubuntu-offtopic and people can discuss it
[05:11] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: yes, that would wor spot on
[05:11] <Answer> bef, is your computer on that public ip and running an ftp server?
[05:11] <ivanneto> I'm connected to a remote system through ssh. How can I know if the remote system is Debian or Ubuntu?
[05:11] <ikonia> work
[05:11] <ikonia> ivanneto: lsb_release -i
[05:11] <bef> Answer: the ftp server is on the other side of the world.
[05:11] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: m'kay, trying
[05:11] <Answer> ivanneto:  locate ubuntu     should show the splashscreen and other files
[05:11] <Rincewind> ikonia: can please have a look here: http://rafb.net/p/d4WnyL28.html
[05:11] <ryanakca> Ok, ia32-libs is already the newest version. for 32 bit firefox, get the 32bit package off packages.ubuntu.com and dpkg -i --force-architecture firefox-32bit.deb ?
[05:11] <ryanakca> rysiek|pl: ^^
[05:11] <ikonia> Rincewind: yes they are being detected as scsi disks
[05:12] <Rincewind> It seems to me that they are recognised.
[05:12] <Rincewind> but not mounted
[05:12] <rysiek|pl> ryanakca: aye?
[05:12] <ikonia> Rincewind: yes - thats correct
[05:12] <victor__> Hello all my 1st time here from south africa running 6.10
[05:12] <ikonia> Rincewind: you could attempt to mount them manually "man mount" to see how the mount command works
[05:12] <ivanneto> ikonia: thanks, but lsb_release is no installed ("-bash: lsb_release: command not found").
[05:12] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: I understand that both ifaces on the to-be-switch have to have the same address?
[05:12] <ryanakca> rysiek|pl: kk
[05:12] <bandolero> clear
[05:12] <ivanneto> ikonia: not installed.
[05:12] <ryanakca> rysiek|pl: I just wasn't sure about the dpkg command
[05:12] <ikonia> ivanneto: then its probably debian
[05:13] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: thats how I understand it too
[05:13] <rysiek|pl> ryanakca: dpkg -i is what is actually being called (well, sort of) by apt when installing software from repos
[05:13] <ivanneto> Answer: thanks!
[05:13] <Merijn> booting my server from ubuntu 6.10 iso freshly burned
[05:13] <Merijn> let's see if I can get this to work
[05:13] <rysiek|pl> ryanakca: you can't get 32bit Ff from repos, though, so you have to download it by hand and install it by hand
[05:13] <ivanneto> ikonia: Yes, I think so. Thanks!
[05:13] <rysiek|pl> ryanakca: got it working that way on my friend's box
[05:13] <ryanakca> rysiek|pl: yup. I know, I taught the class in #ubuntu-classroom about apt a while back :)
[05:14] <ryanakca> kk, will do :)
[05:14] <Merijn> oh wait, better hook up a keyboard >_>
[05:14] <ikonia> Merijn: we don't need a commentary
[05:14] <Merijn> but it's exciting to me :/
[05:14] <Tom47> !codec
[05:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:14] <ryanakca> rysiek|pl: off packages.ubuntu.com, 32 bit? or compile from source?
[05:14] <ikonia> Merijn: but the channel is very busy and your wasting text

[05:15] <Merijn> I'd make a comment on being short on text but nvm
[05:15] <Rincewind> ikonia: I am not a native english speaker and don't understand the man page. Can you tell me what the mount command would be for me?
[05:16] <ikonia> Rincewind: you can install ubuntu in your native language
[05:16] <oyvind> I need some help configuring grub with dualboot, when the XP partition is on its own disk.. cant seem to find a bootline anywhere..
[05:16] <kkerwin> Eagleray: Hey, are you still around?
[05:16] <Toma-> whats the best way to test a parallel port gamepad? i cant get it working :/
[05:16] <oldude67> good morning
[05:17] <ikonia> Toma-: thats an obscure one
[05:17] <oyvind> anyone know a good way to make dualboot work?
[05:17] <LjL> !dualboot

[05:17] <rysiek|pl> re
[05:17] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: well, it did not work :)
[05:17] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: but thanks anyways
[05:18] <seravitae> hm, are there any web page designers for linux?
[05:18] <seravitae> something WYSIWYG
[05:18] <seravitae> just for simple pages.
[05:18] <Toma-> ikonia: no, its a homemade SNES --> PPort mod... need to test the values coming from the pport
[05:18] <rysiek|pl> seravitae: Quanta+
[05:18] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: thats very stange. If both are on the same network, and your using a cross over cable and they both have a default route of the nic - it should not be a problem
[05:18] <oyvind> not using powerpc, but thanx
[05:18] <kkerwin> Hi. I was talking with Eagleray earlier about a problem with a /usr partition that was mounted readonly. He said to try to mount it elsewhere. I remember something about a "mount -o" and so forth, but can't remember everything. Can someone shed some light?
[05:18] <Reverend> seravitae: www.linuxeq.com
[05:18] <rysiek|pl> ikonia: I'll check with a different cable, maybe it was b0rked
[05:18] <seravitae> rysiek|pl: thanks but i use gnome
[05:18] <Reverend> seravitae: shows equivalent programs
[05:18] <ikonia> rysiek|pl: I'd be surprised if it wasn't as it should be a simple setup
[05:19] <Rincewind> ikonia: that doesn't help me with the man page, it is still in english
[05:19] <seravitae> Reverend: thanks, that site rocks.
[05:19] <rysiek|pl> seravitae: there was a good one, but I don't recall the name
[05:19] <rysiek|pl> seravitae: something starting with 'B' :)
[05:19] <ikonia> Rincewind: I was suggedting that you may want to install in your native language to stop that problem
[05:19] <Reverend> How do I register to FreeNode?
[05:20] <ikonia> Rincewind: there is also #ubuntu-de to assist in your native language
[05:20] <Rincewind> I have ubuntu in my native language
[05:20] <ikonia> Rincewind: ahhh great, so if you read the man pages in your native language should be fine
[05:20] <Rincewind> not all man pages are translated yet. the man page for mount is in english
[05:21] <rysiek|pl> brb
[05:21] <Rincewind> is it correct that I can only mount devices that show up in my /mtab ?
[05:21] <ikonia> Rincewind: no thats not correct
[05:21] <seravitae> rysiek|pl: bluefish?
[05:21] <Rincewind> I tried mount sda and mount sda1 but that didn't work
[05:22] <Phrozen_One> in regards to the ati restricted driver, and resolution, is it possible to "force" the native 1280x1024
[05:22] <rysiek|pl> seravitae: aye, that's it
[05:22] <oyvind> i want to install dualboot with windows as the slave drive
[05:22] <ikonia> Rincewind: you need a mount point
[05:23] <ikonia> mount /dev/sda1 doesn't tell it where to mount /dev/sda1
[05:23] <oyvind> i need a bootline to use with grub, i remember finding it once, but i cant seem to find it this time
[05:23] <ikonia> oyvind: boot line for what ?
[05:23] <oyvind> ikonia: dualboot with grub, having windosXP on the slave drive
[05:23] <oyvind> hdb1
[05:24] <Merijn> during setup, what is 'erase entire disk and use LVM' compared to 'erase entire disk' ?
[05:24] <ikonia> oyvind: you want the chain loader option
[05:24] <selfsearcher> i have a problem: if i exit X (session) my monitor goes in "no signal" then it freezes, it seems...
[05:24] <ikonia> Merijn: its use lvm to manage your didks
[05:24] <ikonia> disks
[05:24] <Merijn> do I need that?
[05:24] <selfsearcher> i use fglrx
[05:24] <oyvind> ikonia: thanx
[05:25] <ikonia> Merijn: I'd advise against it if you don't know what it is
[05:25] <Merijn> ok
[05:25] <ikonia> selfsearcher: there is a list as long as my arm of problems with ati drivers
[05:26] <selfsearcher> ikonia: yes but are you sure it's a driver problem? Hmm... in VESA it worked... maybe
[05:26] <Merijn> what remote admin tool can I use with Ubuntu to admin it from a windows box?
[05:27] <tore_> im following this tutorial for wow on linux http://russellthedigitalninja.com/wordpress/?p=9
[05:27] <ikonia> selfsearcher: if it worked in vesa - but not in flrgx then it looks like a driver issue
[05:27] <Rincewind> ikonia: I get this message: mount: special device sda1 does not exist
[05:27] <poningru> Merijn: you can use many things
[05:27] <Jani> tore_, ty for tuto ^
[05:28] <selfsearcher> ikonia: thanks. At least it "works" in X ... sad.
[05:28] <poningru> you can use ssh+putty for command line
[05:28] <tore_> but on the first command i get invalid option -- O
[05:28] <Merijn> for gui, which free options are there?
[05:28] <poningru> or remote desktop for gui
[05:28] <Merijn> what, I can use terminal services? :D
[05:28] <poningru> terminal services?
[05:28] <selfsearcher> Merijn: afaik yes
[05:29] <Merijn> sweet, thanks
[05:29] <poningru> oh right

[05:32] <poningru> Bjweb1: oh...
[05:32] <selfsearcher> park13 maybe you can find a driver. Did you search for it? (chipset vendor and / or card manufacturer)

[05:33] <poningru> and then login
[05:33] <Bjweb1> okay

[05:43] <ikonia> nakedlefty[newb] : basiclly it doesn't have access to make a dir in the current working dir
[05:43] <kingcobra> ikonia, ok well I want to set the ownership of 2 file systems to myself and not root
[05:43] <nakedlefty[newb] > ikonia: oh sorry... is my face red now.... call me mr butterfingers
[05:43] <ikonia> kingcobra: chown them
[05:43] <ikonia> nakedlefty[newb] : not a problem
[05:45] <Merijn> apt-get can't find the proftpd package
[05:45] <kingcobra> ikonia, i want to be the owner after reboots also
[05:45] <ikonia> Merijn: you need to enable the correct repo
[05:45] <Merijn> I'm typing sudo apt-get install proftpd
[05:46] <Merijn> is that in the wiki?
[05:46] <ikonia> kingcobra: once you change the permissions it should stay
[05:46] <ikonia> Merijn: do apt-cache search proftp
[05:46] <ikonia> Merijn: that should tell you the correct  name of the package
[05:46] <stone123> !info proftpd
[05:46] <ubotu> proftpd: Versatile, virtual-hosting FTP daemon. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.0-9ubuntu0.1 (edgy), package size 594 kB, installed size 1532 kB
[05:46] <hook> there is a difference between them   on the box that lets me ping without sudo the display is - rwsr -xr -x 1 root root 30804 2006 /bin/ping on one that is giving me problems it starts off - rwxr
[05:46] <Merijn> that doesn't show me anything
[05:46] <ikonia> hook: thats setupid
[05:46] <Merijn> it just returns to the cmdline
[05:46] <cluster-aware> Hook: that's why
[05:46] <ikonia> hook: use sudo ping
[05:46] <cluster-aware> hook: ping is setuid on one box
[05:47] <ikonia> cluster-aware: I've told him this 4 times now
[05:47] <mewt> hi, I have ubuntu 6.10 with beryl installed...2 questions..1) has the beryl in the repos been updated to 0.2.0 ? 2) Im getting some horrible jerking on the desktop both application wise and even with just moving the mouse
[05:47] <KDan> what's the easiest way to create an open samba share that doesn't ask for a password, from ubuntu? I tried using "Shared Folders" under Applications>System but it asks for a password when logging in from the windows box and doesn't provide an option to set the password...
[05:48] <stone123> !universe | Merijn see info from ubotu
[05:48] <ubotu> Merijn see info from 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
[05:48] <ikonia> KDan: users anonymous
[05:48] <hook> the problem is steeming from using backuppc when I start backup it says no ping response
[05:48] <KDan> ikonia: in the samba conf rather than through gui then?
[05:48] <sipher> Anyone know a command line tool to handle rtmp streams? Been looking for ages
[05:48] <kingcobra> ikonia, are you sure that fsatb wont mount the file systems with root as owner
[05:48] <kingcobra> *fstab
[05:48] <ikonia> kingcobra: which file system is it
[05:48] <ikonia> kingcobra: I told you fstab doesn't set the file system ownership
[05:49] <preaction> KDan: or you can set your user's samba password via terminal: sudo smbpasswd <your username>
[05:49] <kingcobra> ikonia, hda1 and sda3
[05:49] <ikonia> kingcobra: no - what is the mount point
[05:49] <kingcobra> ikonia, media/internal and media/external
[05:49] <ikonia> kingcobra: thats fine
[05:49] <hook> Totally under stand now .... Thanks guys
[05:50] <KDan> preaction: ah, interesting
[05:50] <mewt> !info beryl
[05:50] <KDan> yep that worked. Thanks preaction!
[05:50] <ubotu> Package beryl does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[05:50] <KDan> (and thanks #ubuntu)
[05:50] <preaction> KDan: interestingly enough, i always run into that problem and imho it should be a part of the standard ubuntu password system. perhaps we should file a bug w/ launchpad
[05:51] <kingcobra> ikonia, not sure how to chown, can you explain
[05:51] <ikonia> kingcobra: type "man chown" and that will explain the chown command and how its used
[05:51] <kingcobra> ikonia, chown /media/external kingcobra?
[05:51] <KDan> preaction: personally, I've used linux sporadically for the last 10 years, and it's a bit puzzling that I still struggle with samba, even though it's such an old technology! I would have expected there to be a kickass gui tool by now...
[05:51] <kingcobra> ikonia, i did
[05:51] <mewt> how do i find out what graphic drivers i really have installed ?
[05:52] <ikonia> kingcobra: did you ? that man page has all the arguments and flags you need
[05:52] <Merijn> I enabled the universe repository but 'apt-cache search proftp' still gives me nothing - where is proftpd?
[05:52] <kingcobra> man page isnt great
[05:52] <ikonia> Merijn: you need to do apt-get update first
[05:52] <ikonia> kingcobra: its a good one
[05:52] <mewt> Merijn, apt-get update
[05:52] <kingcobra> i just cant understand it then
[05:52] <dirk_> kjdsf
[05:52] <ikonia> kingcobra: what part is not clear
[05:52] <Merijn> thanks, it's working
[05:52] <preaction> KDan: imho, the linux administrator's gui tools have only started to be developed in the last few years
[05:53] <kingcobra> what will chown file do on its own
[05:53] <kingcobra> ikonia,
[05:53] <ikonia> kingcobra: no that won't work
[05:53] <Gremlinekdance> hello
[05:53] <stone123> kingcobra, chown --help has some examples
[05:54] <ikonia> stone123: there is examples in the man pages
[05:54] <ikonia> he's not read it
[05:54] <ikonia> as he responded 20 seconds after being told the command that he'd read the man page
[05:54] <mewt> why doesnt anyone ever answer my questions :(
[05:54] <Gremlinekdance> hi everybody
[05:54] <KDan> preaction: shame. I tell my Dad he should use linux, and one of the first things he tries to do is share data... smbmount works relatively cleanly, but sharing the other way always seems to screw up
[05:54] <sayers> Does ubuntu make a good server?
[05:54] <ikonia> mewt: whats your question
[05:54] <ikonia> sayers: thats personal opinion
[05:54] <BrianBoyko> Hi.  I have an unusual dual-core question.  I had an Ubuntu System on a single-core processor.  I upgraded to a dual-core system recently and while Linux is clearly using both cores, I'm not 100% sure it's using them effectively.  I set it up on encoding an Xvid to DVD, and while it used both cores, it only used them to about 50% total capacity - and when one core slacked off the other picked up and vice versa.  My CPU graph looks like a symmetrical se
[05:54] <KDan> ikonia: he's asking about Beryl
[05:55] <mewt> ikonia, thanks, how do i know exactly what version of nvidia drivers i have installed ?
[05:55] <ikonia> ughhh
[05:55] <ikonia> mewt: look in synaptic
[05:55] <sayers> ikonia: well statistically is it good?
[05:55] <Gremlinekdance> Ktos z polski?
[05:55] <ikonia> sayers: there are no stats
[05:55] <ompaul> sayers, I use it and I am happy

[05:55] <mewt> I installed them manually, so they should be 9755
[05:55] <jpjacobs> sayers, it's as goos as you configure it ;)
[05:55] <Gremlinekdance> ikonia, jestes z polski? :)
[05:55] <ikonia> mewt: then you should know
[05:55] <mewt> but im having massive performance probs
[05:55] <mewt> with beryl
[05:55] <mjr> BrianBoyko, encoding programs often use only a single process (or thread) by default, in which case the OS itself can't do much to parallelize it
[05:56] <ikonia> mewt: you;ve broken the ubuntu dependency tree - if your having problems with the driver join #nvidia
[05:56] <mewt> jerking mouse and seemingly a lot of cpu usage
[05:56] <ompaul> Gremlinekdance, please go to #ubuntu-pl this is an english language channel
[05:56] <mjr> BrianBoyko, depending on your program, you may be able to tell it to use multiple processes
[05:56] <Gremlinekdance> pff
[05:56] <ikonia> mewt: you've done your own thing - ubuntu won't support the none repo packaged drivers
[05:56] <BrianBoyko> Ah.  MJR: That explains it.  I'm using DeVeDe.
[05:56] <t94xr> question? how do i fix the gnome networking issue? :S
[05:56] <ikonia> t94xr: that issues
[05:56] <ikonia> what
[05:56] <KDan> preaction: anyway, thanks for the help. worked well :-)
[05:56] <mewt> ikonia, mmk thanks
[05:57] <t94xr> i try and go into WORKGROUP and it comes up with the fact that it cant find the workgroup computers??
[05:57] <ikonia> t94xr: have you configured ubuntu to participate in that work group ?
[05:57] <ikonia> t94xr: are all the other computers broadcasting ?
[05:57] <t94xr> yes i have samba running two shares
[05:57] <test> test
[05:57] <t94xr> yes
[05:57] <mjr> BrianBoyko, well, I don't know about that. One thing you can at least do is if you've got a lot to convert, just start two devedes at once ;)
[05:57] <t94xr> i cant access the whole network thru my xp machine
[05:58] <t94xr> i can access even my shares
[05:58] <t94xr> but
[05:58] <Merijn> proftpd won't start for some reason, where can O find the config file?
[05:58] <Merijn> O=I
[05:58] <Kuutio> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ticket/4824
[05:58] <ikonia> Merijn: the wiki page your reading should walk you through it
[05:58] <t94xr> I cant get the network thru the ubuntu laptop (this system)
[05:58] <ikonia> t94xr: sounds very unusual
[05:59] <roadfish> I installed the wordnet package and dictd but can't install dict-wn. How can I get dictd to server up wordnet pages? Why does dictd suggest dict-wn but apt-get says there is no installation candidate?

[05:59] <t94xr> yeah, I go thru Network places and it can see workgroup but no computers

[06:01] <Merijn> ikonia > I must be on the wrong damn wiki page then
[06:02] <deepsa> hammedhaaret, sure tell us the problem
[06:02] <ikonia> kingcobra: do sudo -i
[06:02] <ikonia> then try the chown command
[06:02] <hammedhaaret> it boots fine on the cd and i get the menu with
[06:02] <kevinh90> does anyone here have experience with ATI rage cards(mach64)
[06:02] <hammedhaaret> install/start ubuntu

[06:03] <kingcobra> ikonia, sudo chown -i kingcobra /media/external?
[06:03] <deepsa> hammedhaaret, what out of range?
[06:03] <blippe> kingcobra: after a sudo -i ju get a new terminal, and you are able to runa any of those commands
[06:03] <Crane> kingcobra: just enter sudo -i
[06:04] <Crane> hit enter
[06:04] <ikonia> kingcobra: no sudo -i
[06:04] <ikonia> then when you enter your password the chown command
[06:04] <hammedhaaret> dunno... tried the vga option... nothing.   safty mode... nothing too
[06:04] <flyingrabbit> I just installed ubuntu on my laptop, but i can only get external displays to work outside of text mode
[06:04] <Rincewind_> ikonia: manually umounting sda1 and sdb1 did the trick for me. It is now working again (and hopefully after the next reboot, too). Thanks for your help!
[06:04] <ompaul> hammedhaaret, leave it there for a moment it may rectify itself, if not CTRL ALT F1 and log in and run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:04] <ikonia> Rincewind_: your welcome, and well done
[06:04] <deepsa> hammedhaaret, oh i see. i can't help then
[06:04] <kingcobra> blippe, Crane thanks
[06:04] <deep> Anyway to rename a bunch of files to itself+.mp3 easily?
[06:04] <preaction> flyingrabbit: you mean you can only get external monitors to work in X? that's to be expected, since only X knows enough to use external monitors
[06:04] <hammedhaaret> ook... thx anyway
[06:05] <deep> like mv files* <itself>.mp3 ?
[06:05] <ompaul> hammedhaaret, for install ahh that add this to the startup line: vga=771
[06:05] <kevinh90> does anyone here have experience with compiling DRI kernel modules?

[06:05] <ikonia> kingcobra: vfat doesn't support permissions
[06:06] <ikonia> (I don't think)
[06:06] <ikonia> sorry took me a second to click on that

[06:06] <kingcobra> ikonia, so how do i make myself the owner rather than root
[06:06] <stone123> kingcobra, you need to unmask it  its like inverted chmod
[06:07] <ikonia> kingcobra: you don't - if I remember correctly
[06:07] <hammedhaaret> ompaul, which startupline exactly
[06:07] <kevinh90> hm i wonder if that will work for me
[06:07] <ikonia> stone123: does vfat support permissions ?
[06:07] <BrazUbuntu> hey lads, got a .iso with some Lessons, already mounted it and it needs no instalation, but it's a .exe file....how can i run it ? Wine was no good...
[06:07] <kevinh90> !mach64 | kevinh90
[06:07] <kevinh90> :(
[06:07] <stone123> ikonia, i think so
[06:07] <ompaul> hammedhaaret, there is an edit options (F6 iirc) and add it there
[06:08] <aubade> deep: Are you asking how to rename 'em by your own pattern or using Vorbis/ID* tags?
[06:08] <stone123> not 100 % on that one
[06:08] <hammedhaaret> ok
[06:08] <ikonia> stone123: me neither - I thought it didn't support it
[06:08] <hammedhaaret> ill try... thx!
[06:08] <ikonia> but like you not %100
[06:08] <flyingrabbit> preaction: thank you, I'll look through this, you think ill be able to find a way to get my default screen to work there?
[06:08] <kingcobra> BrazUbuntu, its probably a windows disk youre tryin to use in linux
[06:09] <kingcobra> use it in win32 instead
[06:09] <noteventime> 'ello
[06:09] <deep> aubade: just rename the files to itself + ".mp3"
[06:09] <deep> (:
[06:09] <BrazUbuntu> kingcobra, yeah, the lessons are a windows executable
[06:09] <stone123> ikonia, but i do rembember unmask and that it is like inverted chmod 777=000
[06:09] <preaction> flyingrabbit: no, because you have not been listening. I do not know of any situation where you can use an external, additional monitor outside of X
[06:09] <noteventime> Has anyone else had the problem with the copy and cut commands not working in evolution?
[06:09] <ikonia> stone123: yeah, umask is fine  - however I don't know that it will do anything without permissions support
[06:09] <ikonia> hence why I asked
[06:10] <ikonia> as I'm not %100 certain
[06:10] <aubade> deep: Do they have any extension already? lol
[06:10] <kingcobra> ikonia, em do you know how to make myself the owner rather than root
[06:10] <deep> aubade: no ^^ That's what i am trying to fix (:
[06:10] <ikonia> kingcobra: I've said 3 times - I'm not sure vfat supports permissions
[06:10] <kingcobra> BrazUbuntu, have you got windows
[06:10] <ikonia> kingcobra: why do you want to be the owner - is it causing you problems ?
[06:10] <tombomb318> how can I get wireless internet with my ibook g4
[06:10] <BrazUbuntu> kingcobra, yeah dual partition, XP and Ubuntu
[06:11] <kingcobra> ikonia, yes i cant eject it
[06:11] <ikonia> kingcobra: eject it ?
[06:11] <deep> aubade: nm (: fixed it
[06:11] <ikonia> kingcobra: is it a cdrom ?

[06:11] <OwlEye> usually, there are lots of messages scrolling by during boot that can be reviewed in /var/log/dmesg later. ubuntu has a feature where it only shows a summary in a graphical box of these status messages. does anybody know how that feature is called?
[06:11] <kingcobra> unmount it then, its a usb hd

[06:12] <noteventime> Does ubuntu ship with something similar to KDEs klipper applet?
[06:12] <ikonia> kingcobra: if you can mount it or not is nothing to do with permissions on the file system
[06:12] <ikonia> kingcobra: just do "sudo umount"
[06:12] <Merijn> oh
[06:12] <Merijn> so how do I just add the world-readable property?

[06:14] <rob_7> I had a windows xp computer that I installed a second hard drive and loaded ubuntu on it. I mounted my windows drive as read only but something happened.....power surge maybe? it was on a weekend and I wasnt around, when I came back it was off.....when I rebooted ubuntu loads fine but the windows drive is empty. is there any way to recover the drive in ubuntu?
[06:14] <kingcobra> ikonia, i have user in fstab
[06:14] <kevinh90> ikonia: how do i fix that?
[06:14] <kingcobra> ikonia, should it be kingcobra
[06:14] <ikonia> kingcobra: no
[06:14] <hovinen> What package do I install under Edgy to get mint (the Mono interpreter)? It used to be mono-mint, but that package doesn't exist any more.
[06:15] <ikonia> kingcobra: show me your fstab please in a pastebin
[06:15] <ikonia> kevinh90: install the headers
[06:15] <xtknight> kevinh90, sudo apt-get install linux-headers
[06:15] <xtknight> !find mono
[06:15] <BrazUbuntu> rob_7, it's isn't just unmounted ?
[06:15] <ubotu> Found: kde-icons-mono, monodoc, monodoc-base, monodoc-browser, monodoc-manual (and 97 others)
[06:15] <kingcobra> ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14732/
[06:15] <kitche> hovinen: don't know what you mean by mint but why not just install mono?
[06:15] <xtknight> hovinen, search for mono in synaptic
[06:16] <rob_7> no its not unmounted........it shows 60gb free space...........empty
[06:16] <hovinen> kitche, I *have* mono installed. But the packages do not come with mint. It's required for something I'm trying to compile.
[06:16] <mcscruff> lo all, anyone managed to get metisse working in gnome?

[06:16] <xtknight> kingcobra, having trouble using Eject under GNOME?
[06:16] <Answer> How do I export the display from my laptop to an external monitor?
[06:16] <hovinen> xtknight, I've installed every mono package I can find and it's still not there.
[06:16] <tombomb318> Does anyone know how to get airport card to work On the ibook g4?
[06:16] <xtknight> hovinen, what are you looking for?
[06:16] <ikonia> kingcobra: but you don't use "eject" on usb devices - only cdroms
[06:16] <kingcobra> xtknight, yes
[06:16] <xtknight> hovinen, an application that can run a mono program?
[06:16] <xtknight> kingcobra, type "eject /device" (no sudo).  what happens?
[06:16] <stone123> !twinview > Answer
[06:17] <xtknight> sure you can use eject on usb
[06:17] <xtknight> to wipe buffer and ready it for use
[06:17] <kevinh90> xtknight/ikonia linux-headers is a virtual package(i added -2.6.20-14-generic to the end of it and it was already installed
[06:17] <kingcobra> ikonia, in gnome you do i think
[06:17] <hovinen> xtknight, I'm looking for a specific program: mint. The program I'm trying to compile fails at configure complaining that it can't find mint.
[06:17] <xtknight> kevinh90, ok so whta is the error reported?
[06:17] <ikonia> kevinh90: are you uinsg fesity
[06:17] <kevinh90> /home/kevin/Desktop/mach64-20060403-linux.i386/drm/linux-core/drmP.h:44:26: error: linux/config.h: No such file or directory
[06:17] <ikonia> kingcobra: pardon ?
[06:17] <xtknight> hovinen, sudo apt-get install linux-source-`uname -r`
[06:17] <xtknight> hovinen, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[06:17] <kevinh90> ikonia: yes, but I got exactly the same error on edgy, and dapper
[06:17] <xtknight> that too
[06:18] <kingcobra> xtknight, umount: only root can unmount /dev/sda3 from /media/external
[06:18] <xtknight> hovinen, was mint ever in the reopsitories?
[06:18] <ikonia> kevinh90: yes - the error will be the same if you have no headers, but the packages changed in fesity
[06:18] <xtknight> kingcobra, cat /etc/fstab | grep /dev/sda3  please
[06:18] <BrazUbuntu> rob_7, type "fdisk -l" check if it's mounting correctly....don't know, just guessing
 kingcobra: but you don't use "eject" on usb devices - only cdroms
[06:18] <hovinen> xtknight, It was in a previous version of Ubuntu.
[06:18] <kevinh90> i believe i have the headers(they are in /usr/src/
[06:18] <xtknight> hovinen, you in feisty now?
 ikonia, in gnome you do i think
[06:18] <ikonia> in gnome you do I think ????
[06:18] <ikonia> I don't understand
[06:18] <hovinen> xtknight, No. Edgy
[06:19] <xtknight> ikonia, in GNOME you eject a USB drive to write the buffer to disk
[06:19] <kingcobra> ikonia, you do use eject i think
[06:19] <ikonia> xtknight: ahhhhh
[06:19] <ikonia> xtknight: thank you
[06:19] <xtknight> !info mint dapper
[06:19] <ubotu> Package mint does not exist in dapper
[06:19] <xtknight> !info mono-mint dapper
[06:19] <ubotu> Package mono-mint does not exist in dapper
[06:19] <roadfish> do other people get "no installation candidate" if they attempt "apt-get install dict-wn"?
[06:19] <kevinh90> does anyone know what I can do?
[06:19] <xtknight> kevinh90, i suggested installing two packages above.  did they work?
[06:19] <ikonia> roadfish: the package doesn't exist
[06:19] <xtknight> kingcobra, ` cat /etc/fstab | grep /dev/sda3 ` please
[06:20] <kingcobra> xtknight, /dev/sda3 /media/external  vfat user,umask=000,utf8 0 0
[06:20] <xtknight> roadfish, i get that also.  what lanaguage is wn?
[06:20] <kevinh90> xtknight: the headers? already installed
[06:20] <xtknight> kingcobra, sudo eject /media/external
[06:20] <xtknight> kingcobra, what happens ^ ?
[06:20] <xtknight> kevinh90, no source and build-essential
[06:21] <kitche> hovinen: The mono-mint (the interpeter) is deprecated, unmaintained upstream
[06:21] <kitche>       and was just a proof-of-concept programm.
[06:21] <kevinh90> i got build-essential yesterday
[06:21] <xtknight> kevinh90, sudo apt-get install linux-source-$(uname -r) build-essential
[06:21] <kingcobra> xtknight, it works
[06:21] <xtknight> kingcobra, ok now "sudo mount /media/external"
[06:21] <xtknight> and errors or warnings at all?
[06:21] <xtknight> any*
[06:21] <roadfish> ikonia: why would dictd recommend dict-wn if it doesn't exist? I'm new to Ubuntu but had been using dict-wn in the past (on a Knoppix harddrive install).
[06:21] <ikonia> roadfish: perhaps the package is not finished
[06:21] <ikonia> or no-one has packaged it
[06:21] <xtknight> roadfish, what are you trying to install (also what language is wn)?
[06:22] <xtknight> usually it means the package does not exist, it's virtual or not in your architecture/distro
[06:22] <xtknight> it does exist somewhere, though
[06:22] <hovinen> kitche, So...why does the absolute latest version of monodevelop fail at configure when it's not present?
[06:22] <xtknight> hovinen, please paste the entire pastebin of ./configure
[06:22] <roadfish> dict-wn is the English-language WordNet dictionary data that has been formatted to operation with the dictd daemon.
[06:22] <kingcobra> xtknight, it mounts with me as owner
[06:22] <sayers> With the built in Desktop Effects the cube thing doesnt work anymore?
[06:22] <kevinh90> couldnt find package linux-source-2.6.20-14-generic
[06:23] <xtknight> kingcobra, type "mount | grep /dev/sda3"
[06:23] <kingcobra> thats exactly what i would like to happen at bootup
[06:23] <kevinh90> and build-essential is already up to date
[06:23] <xtknight> kevinh90, sudo apt-get install linux-source-2.6.20
[06:23] <kitche> hovinen: no clue sicne it doesn't depend on it
[06:23] <hovinen> xtknight, Sorry, I forget how to use pastebin

[06:23] <stone123> use meta linux-source
[06:23] <kaos19> Hello everyone....

[06:24] <JoseBravo> What is the name of the X headers package?
[06:24] <hovinen> kitche, I installed that one. It's not there.
[06:25] <stone123> kevinh90, if you asked for latest linux source
[06:25] <kevinh90> i already have it

[06:25] <kevinh90> this is difficult
[06:25] <xtknight> hovinen, sudo apt-get install libmono-dev mono-devel

[06:25] <kingcobra> xtknight, done
[06:25] <ubuntu-phan> Hi, will Ubuntu 7.04 include the "out of the box" support for encrypted partitions that is part of Debian 4.0?
[06:25] <hovinen> kitche, Yes
[06:26] <xtknight> kingcobra, "sudo mount -o user /dev/sda3 /media/external"
[06:26] <xtknight> kingcobra, any luck?
[06:26] <kaos19> Have quick question..   The EVDO KPC650 card keeps freezing.  It seems like it is usbserial issue.  Does anyone have idea to resolve this issue?
[06:26] <xtknight> kaos19, pastebin dmesg
[06:26] <kevinh90> all I want is direct rendering, so i can have glxgears look like its spinning
[06:26] <xtknight> kaos19, when it freezes does it take down the whole system?
[06:26] <kingcobra> xtknight, yes its mounted with me as owner again
[06:26] <hovinen> xtknight, Aha! libmono-dev did it. Thanks!
[06:26] <xtknight> kingcobra, type "mount | grep /dev/sda3" and report the output again
[06:27] <kaos19> When the connection freezes there is nothing in Dmesg
[06:27] <roadfish> what is the url to look up package information for Ubuntu? I want to check about the status of dict-wn.
[06:27] <hovinen> xtknight, kitche Thanks for your help.
[06:27] <xtknight> roadfish, http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[06:27] <sayers> xtknight: but it worked earlier
[06:27] <kingcobra> /dev/sda3 on /media/external type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[06:27] <xtknight> not sure about dict-wn
[06:27] <roadfish> xtknight: txn
[06:27] <xtknight> roadfish, could you tell me what language wn is so i can help you find the pkg you need?
[06:27] <xtknight> kingcobra, "eject /dev/sda3"  does it work?
[06:28] <kingcobra> umount: only root can unmount /dev/sda3 from /media/external
[06:28] <kaos19> xtknight, nothing in dmesg when KPC650 freezes.
[06:28] <kingcobra> no
[06:28] <xtknight> kingcobra, ok.  remove the line for that drive from fstab
[06:28] <xtknight> kaos19, understood.  not sure howto debug it.  what is an evdo card?
[06:28] <xtknight> wireless?
[06:28] <roadfish> xtknight: wn is English
[06:28] <xtknight> roadfish, ?? i thought en was
[06:29] <xtknight> typo or is it another dialect?
[06:29] <kingcobra> xtknight, should i reboot
[06:29] <xtknight> kingcobra, not yet
[06:29] <xtknight> kingcobra, sudo umount /dev/sda3 after removing it from fstab
[06:29] <kaos19> xtknight, Verizon Wireless  card that acts like USBSerial device to connect to internet
[06:29] <kingcobra> xtknight, done
[06:29] <Merijn> I have proftpd all setup, but it still won't start with 'ipv6 getaddrinfo '<my hostname>' error: name or service not known' - can anyone help?
[06:30] <xtknight> roadfish, odd.  i guess it is dict-wn for english
[06:30] <xtknight> kingcobra, now "sudo mount -o user /dev/sda3 /media/external"
[06:30] <kingcobra> done
[06:30] <stone123> Merijn, that should be warning not error and man host
[06:30] <xtknight> kingcobra, any msgs at end of dmesg?
[06:30] <roadfish> xtknight: check out the description of wordnet which is an "electronic lexical database of English language". dict-wn is a the wordnet data reformatted to work with dict-wn.
[06:30] <kingcobra> xtknight, what dmesg
[06:30] <roadfish> xtknight: ... I mean to: work with dictd.
[06:31] <xtknight> roadfish, sudo apt-get install wordnet
[06:31] <xtknight> maybe?

[06:31] <harry_> is at possible to get Amarok for Windoze?
[06:31] <xtknight> kingcobra, type dmesg.  does anything mount-related appear at the end?
[06:31] <disasm> harry_: I don't think so, not really ubuntu related though
[06:31] <shape> hi everybody guys
[06:31] <xtknight> !hi
[06:31] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:31] <disasm> xtknight: hi!
[06:31] <xtknight> hallo
[06:32] <roadfish> xtknight: true, I've done that and it works. but the data in the wordnet uses separate binaries and not the dictd daemon. the data of wordnet is not formatted to work with dictd.
[06:32] <harry_> there should be a GNOME fork of it.
[06:32] <shape> i wish to know if a package does exist like matlab or mathcad
[06:32] <xtknight> roadfish, any of the wordnet packages do what you want?  sorry i dont really know
[06:32] <snerge> harry_: you can use amarok in gnome ...
[06:32] <mthe> bbl all
[06:32] <disasm> shape: there is scilab, it works for most basic usage
[06:32] <xtknight> !info scilab
[06:32] <jpjacobs> shape: octave, or scilab

[06:33] <Epic720> I am having troubles getting my skydome image to work.
[06:33] <xtknight> Arcad3, what?
[06:33] <Merijn> stone123 > no idea what you mean, and my proftpd logfile is blank
[06:33] <cyris> Hey everyone. I'm trying to get wifi going on my macbook running edgy. Any ideas? network-manager-gnome doesn't see any wireless devices :S
[06:33] <kingcobra> xtknight, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14737/
[06:33] <jpjacobs> shape, octave aims for mostly-matlab-compatibility
[06:33] <shape> i wouldn't be forced to use windows just only because matlab

[06:33] <ubuntu-phan> Does anyone here know if the next release of Ubuntu (7.04) will include "out of the box" support for creating and using encrypted partitions that is now part of Debian 4.0?
[06:33] <harry_> snerge: yeah, I do. But it would be nice if ther e was a fork that integrated nicely.
[06:33] <xtknight> !feisty
[06:33] <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)
[06:34] <cyris> anyone around thats running edgy on a macbook ?
[06:34] <snerge> harry_: hehe I use kde so ... :P
[06:34] <mjr> cyris, if you have airport extreme, that uses a broadcom chipset for which there is no driver in edgy. Apparently a reverse-engineered driver is in the works, dunno if that will be workable in Feisty.
[06:34] <xtknight> kingcobra, ok.  "mount | grep sda3" now
[06:34] <roadfish> xtknight: well, then if I could ask a more general Ubuntu question ... I just searched on dict-wn and it gives me a result for edgy but I just installed Ubuntu for the first time off of the Feisty Fawn DVD. If I only get an edgy hit does that mean the package won't (yet) be available for my Feisty Fawn install?
[06:34] <kingcobra> xtknight, done
[06:35] <xtknight> roadfish, i think you can ask tonyyarusso about Feisty packages.  ask him why dict-wn isn't in i guess
[06:35] <Arcad3> is anyone using linuxdcpp?
[06:35] <cyris> mjr: well i know the crd is Atheros, thats about it.
[06:35] <cyris> card
[06:35] <xtknight> roadfish, the package for edgy wont install on feisty, probably
[06:35] <stone123> Arcad3, linuxdcpp couldent be built last time i checked
[06:35] <Arcad3> i do everithing in ubuntu guide.org but the hardlink doesnt work
[06:36] <Arcad3> no
[06:36] <roadfish> xtknight: ok, thanks
[06:36] <Arcad3> i have  built and working
[06:36] <mjr> cyris, right, well, there's the non-free issue again. Don't know if the proprietary atheros driver is avaiable for ppc, though I think it is
[06:36] <xtknight> roadfish, still a bit confused as to what you're looking for/why/the context of it though
[06:36] <Arcad3> but the desktop shortcut doesnt work
[06:36] <stone123> Arcad3, feisty or edgy?
[06:36] <xtknight> roadfish, pretty sure feisty can provide something for your needs
[06:36] <Arcad3> edgy
[06:36] <cyris> mjr: i dont run ppc, this baby is intel based
[06:36] <stone123> ok i am on feisty
[06:37] <stone123> Arcad3, what links dont work ?
[06:37] <Arcad3> works just with command "./linuxdcpp"
[06:37] <Arcad3> from terminal
[06:37] <Xanthus35> ok I tried to install the ubuntu 60 and when I picked the intall option I get graphical interface failed
[06:37] <roadfish> xtknight: dictd is a dictionary server and can serve up all kinds of data such as, for instance, from the "Jargon File" or religion database. But the data has to be formatted for dictd. dict-wn is the dictd version of the wordnet data.
[06:37] <Arcad3> the desktop shortcut as in explained in ubuntuguide.org is not
[06:37] <cyris> mjr: from the documentation i was using, it said my wifi should work out of the box
[06:37] <stone123> Arcad3, : ln -s linuxdcpp /usr/share/bin/
[06:38] <shape> when will be ready the stable version of feisty fawn?
[06:38] <Arcad3> already tried that
[06:38] <Arcad3> doesnt work
[06:38] <roadfish> tonyyarusso: why isn't dict-wn in feisty? will it be added to feisty at some point?
[06:38] <Xanthus35> ok I tried to install the ubuntu 60 and when I picked the intall option I get graphical interface failed
[06:38] <kingcobra> xtknight, what should i do now
[06:38] <xtknight> kingcobra, ah what was the output
[06:38] <mjr> cyris, ok, well. See that you have the linux-restricted-modules-[yourkernelversion]  installed
[06:38] <xtknight> kingcobra,  muont | grep sda3..
[06:39] <stone123> Arcad3, maby you should run ldconf but its for libs

[06:39] <kingcobra> oh yeah sorry
[06:39] <xtknight> roadfish, and the wordnet package isn't the same thing?
[06:39] <Xanthus35> ok I tried to install the ubuntu 60 and when I picked the intall option I get graphical interface failed
[06:39] <xtknight> kingcobra, odd.  not sure why it's not being mounted as user
[06:39] <eyeonus> I am unable to use Synaptic since a restart- when I reload the repositories, it tries to connect to 127.0.0.1, which is my computer- anyone know how to fix this?
[06:39] <xtknight> kingcobra, one sec
[06:39] <Arcad3> thanks for the info
[06:39] <Answer> eyeonus, did you edit /etc/hosts
[06:39] <kingcobra> xtknight, should i reboot
[06:39] <eyeonus> apt-get does the same thing.
[06:40] <eyeonus> No.
[06:40] <xtknight> kingcobra, no
[06:40] <cyris> mjr: got it
[06:40] <kingcobra> ok
[06:40] <eyeonus> I installed some packages, then restarted.

[06:40] <Xanthus35> ok I tried to install the ubuntu 60 and when I picked the intall option I get graphical interface failed can someone please help me
[06:40] <roadfish> xtknight: no, the data for wordnet is in a format for the wordnet executables (which show data in a lexiographic format for language analysis). dict-wn is a reformatting to work with dict-d.
[06:40] <eyeonus> No. I installed some packages, then restarted.
[06:40] <xtknight> kingcobra, i think it needs to be "users" not "user"
[06:41] <stevr1it> is it there any command form ternilam to do it?
[06:41] <stevr1it> from terminal
[06:41] <xtknight> preaction, will use in future
[06:41] <kingcobra> should i change something in fstab then
[06:41] <xtknight> kingcobra, "user" to "users"

[06:42] <stone123> eyeonus, proxy installed ?
[06:42] <SlimeyPete> eyeonus: check that the proxy settings haven't been messed with
[06:42] <kingcobra> i took out the line for the partition, what should i put back in

[06:42] <Chris12> hi, is there a software available too completely clear a harddrive, before i fresh install?

[06:43] <smo_> salut
[06:43] <Chris12> preaction, i want to install on a clean drive
[06:43] <SlimeyPete> eyeonus: look at the proxy settings in the synaptic preferences screen. Make sure they're clear.
[06:43] <xtknight> kingcobra, sorry.  exit out of stab. go in a terminal and try 'users'.  "sudo mount -o users /dev/sda3 /media/external"

[06:43] <hammedhaaret> ompaul, ok... the F6 vga commandline thingy didn't work and the ctrl alt F1 part scared me a bit but i tried to do it anyway but it didnt seem to help.
[06:43] <hammedhaaret>    i didn't flash my bios or something as scary as that did i?
[06:43] <eyeonus> Okay, so how do I configure Synaptic to connect through a proxy?

[06:43] <smo_> ??
[06:43] <xtknight> eyeonus, apt.conf
[06:43] <preaction> Chris12: why? it's not necessary. once you format the hard drive the old filesystem is lost
[06:43] <xtknight> eyeonus, remove Proxy::false from /etc/apt/apt.conf
[06:44] <xtknight> otherwise 403 forbiddens will happen

[06:44] <ubotu> Xanthus35: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:44] <Chris12> preaction, a guide about "setting feisty up for speed" tells you to clean your drive
[06:45] <Merijn> I setup proftpd properly but I still can't login (login incorrect), what can the problem be?
[06:45] <kingcobra> xtknight, done
[06:45] <Xanthus35> I have asked my question 4 times and been ignored
[06:45] <preaction> Chris12: without a url i cannot validate the veracity of that article

[06:46] <kkerwin> Hi, is there any way to do seamless virtualization with vmware, the same way that it is described here with Qemu? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SeamlessVirtualization
[06:46] <kingcobra> /dev/sda3 on /media/external type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[06:46] <xtknight> Xanthus35, grub automatically takes care of other OSes.
[06:46] <Merijn> I don't have a GUI
[06:46] <kingcobra> xtknight,
[06:46] <xtknight> kingcobra, hmm frustrating
[06:46] <kingcobra> yes
[06:46] <Arcad3> u can edit /etc/proftpd.conf
[06:47] <Arcad3> i can paste u my user configuration for u to use as example
[06:47] <Xanthus35> I need some help can anyone help me please
[06:47] <kingcobra> xtknight, it is ok like this though
[06:47] <eyeonus> How do I find out what the host proxy for http and ftp is?
[06:47] <xtknight> kingcobra, shouldnt be like that.  hmm
[06:47] <kingcobra> xtknight, i can eject it i think and hav full permissions
[06:47] <preaction> Chris12: this guy explicitly says he's not an expert. i am. completely zeroing your hard drive before an install is a waste of time unless you have an actual problem with the hard drive during an install
[06:47] <xtknight> kingcobra, unomunt it yet again let's try a couple more things
[06:47] <hammedhaaret> Hi, i still have a problem installing ubuntu.
[06:47] <hammedhaaret> i can boot from the Cd but after choosing either start/install ubuntu my screen goes nuts and says "warning! input signal out of range".
[06:47] <hammedhaaret> try to leave it there but nothing happened.    can anyone help me?
[06:47] <kingcobra> xtknight, what are you trying to do
[06:48] <Chris12> preaction: you sound convincing
[06:48] <xtknight> kingcobra, get it to mount with the "user" option.  we may need to use uid= for vfat
[06:48] <Chris12> preaction, thank you ;)
[06:48] <eyeonus> How do I determine the host proxy on my box?
[06:48] <rob__> hammedhaaret: the problem is a misconfiguration with probably the X server, i dont know how to fix it though..
[06:48] <preaction> Chris12: and i definitely ask that you not do anything this person does unless you actually have a durned good reason for doing so
[06:48] <kingcobra> xtknight, ok its unmounted
[06:48] <xtknight> kingcobra, "cat /etc/passwd | grep $USER"  what's your uid?  1000-2000...
[06:48] <stone123> hammedhaaret, you need to set boot options for cd live vga=XXX
[06:48] <preaction> Chris12: for example: do not turn off swap unless you have an explicit and good reason for doing so.

[06:48] <Xanthus35> i HAVE ASKED THIS QUESTION 5 TIMES AND BEEN IGNORED WHEN I TRY TO INSTALL UBUNTU I GET GRAPHICAL INTERFACE FAILED
[06:48] <roadfish> xtknight: thanks for the tips. actually, I'm already installing dict-gcide. But on my old system I had dict-gcide _and_ dict-wn. Both are excellent dictionaries and I like to have both installed at the same time.
[06:48] <Chris12> preaction, i won't
[06:49] <xtknight> eyeonus, disabling proxy in apt.conf didnt work?
[06:49] <Chris12> preaction, i use parts of the guide, not everything
[06:49] <stone123> hammedhaaret, and by XXX i mean actual number for vga
[06:49] <Answer> Xanthus35, caps lock will get you nowehere.
[06:49] <rob__> Xanthus35: now youve encouraged people to ignore you more!
[06:49] <Xanthus35> Well then how about an answer
[06:49] <xtknight> roadfish, ah sorry i cant be of any further help
[06:49] <Answer> Xanthus35, you probably destroyed your xorg.conf file.  Reinstall from the CD.
[06:49] <xtknight> roadfish, ask tonyy when he's around
[06:49] <kekko_> Xanthus35: you don't get it do you?
[06:49] <eyeonus> xtknight- no.
[06:49] <Xanthus35> thought this was a help channel
[06:49] <stevr1it> anyone to help me to modify - enlarge the partition root ?
[06:50] <hammedhaaret> stone123, thats what ompaul told me to do.. with xxx being 711, dunno why.... that didn't work... wrong number?
[06:50] <ajduenas> Alguien habla espaol??
[06:50] <xtknight> kingcobra, try "sudo mount -o noauto,user,users,uid=1000 -t vfat /dev/sda3 /media/external"

[06:50] <rob__> xtknight: i know youre busy, but dont forget about my fglrx :p
[06:50] <xtknight> rob__, oh you probably didnt highlight me ;)

[06:50] <xtknight> rob__, not sure about that
[06:51] <eyeonus> xtknight- it's updating now.... I'll say something when it's done.
[06:51] <Answer> Xanthus35, Re-install from the cd.  The grub loader will automatically detect the other OS's.
[06:51] <rob__> xtknight: ah cheers anyway, i was thinking maybe i have to setup the correct agp settings etc in xorg.conf ?
[06:51] <Arcad3> Xanthus35: use win$ is special made for u (Clicky Clicky)
[06:51] <kingcobra> xtknight, done
[06:51] <xtknight> rob__, hmm no idea :\
[06:51] <rob__> cheers
[06:51] <hammedhaaret> stone123, tried that, some other guy told me to but it didn't work
[06:51] <xtknight> kingcobra, now "mount | grep sda3"
[06:51] <shamrock_hh> could anyone suggest to me why my download rate in Ubuntu is almost half that as when I dual boot to XP? Something to do with IP6?
[06:51] <xtknight> !ipv6
[06:51] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[06:52] <rob__> shamrock_hh: sounds like i have similar problem
[06:52] <kingcobra> /dev/sda3 on /media/external type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000)
[06:52] <xtknight> doubt that's it
[06:52] <kingcobra> xtknight,
[06:52] <xtknight> kingcobra, ok there we go
[06:52] <xtknight> kingcobra, now type "eject /dev/sda3" any luck
[06:52] <Answer> shamrock_hh, are you using wireless or wired
[06:52] <stone123> hammedhaaret, i dont know google for live cd ubuntu  options ,, if it doesnt help use alternate cd
[06:52] <BrazUbuntu> shamrock_hh, half when downloading using some software or in general ?
[06:52] <xtknight> kingcobra, not sudo eject btw, just eject.
[06:52] <dcordes> How can I force nautilus to run a script and not open it with gedit?
[06:52] <dying_sphynx> hi all
[06:52] <kingcobra> xtknight, that works
[06:52] <Answer> dcordes, ./ will execute
[06:52] <xtknight> running scripts with nuailtus is a bad idea
[06:53] <nalioth> dcordes: in a terminal, type "chmod +x script" <enter>
[06:53] <xtknight> they can't ask you anytihng
[06:53] <eyeonus> This is taking forever....
[06:53] <xtknight> kingcobra, alright.  good
[06:53] <xtknight> kingcobra, now in fstab...
[06:53] <dcordes> Answer, nalioth I would like to run it by doubble clicking it in nautilus, avoiding the terminal.
[06:53] <eyeonus> Shoulda used --verbose so I can at least see it's doing something....
[06:53] <Answer> dcordes, ./ will execute it mmk
[06:53] <shamrock_hh> thanks xtknight
[06:53] <nalioth> dcordes: you have to tell the system that it IS a script first
[06:53] <hammedhaaret> stone123, and by alternate cd you mean? not live cd or?
[06:53] <xtknight> kingcobra, add"  /dev/sda3 /media/external  vfat user,umask=000,utf8,uid=1000 0 0"
[06:54] <dying_sphynx> I have a problem with my wireless through WPA. After rebooting I need to restart my networking to get it working (/etc/init.d/networking restart). Does have anyone such problem? Thanks
[06:54] <nalioth> Answer: you can ./ all day long, if the script isn't executable, nothing will happen
[06:54] <ardchoille> Can anyone give an example of when ipv6 would absolutely be needed? Or why it's *not* good to disable ipv6? I always disable ipv6 because lots of thigs are faster without it.
[06:54] <Answer> nalioth, yeah but that would lead him to a more helpful error message... and maybe chmod
[06:54] <xtknight> some people already use ipv6 i guess
[06:54] <stone123> hammedhaaret, it is a failsafe one
[06:54] <xtknight> i've never had slowdowns with ipv6 on
[06:55] <xtknight> even though i'm ipv4 only
[06:55] <kingcobra> xtknight, ok done
[06:55] <dying_sphynx> so what about WPA? Have you seen my message? :)
[06:55] <ardchoille> xtknight: Hmm.. firefox seems faster without it on my bxoes
[06:55] <xtknight> kingcobra, now save/exit fstab.  umount /dev/sda3
[06:55] <xtknight> kingcobra, and then 'mount /dev/sda3' no sudo
[06:56] <hydrozen> What are the chances I can get my broadcom wireless on my hp laptop to work with Feisty?? I'm not sure which chip is in there tho, windows doesnt tell.. I just know it's broadcom
[06:56] <xtknight> kingcobra, now try eject from desktop
[06:56] <elkbuntu> !broadcom
[06:56] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:56] <xtknight> hydrozen, windows would tell, actually
[06:56] <poningru> !bcm43xx | hydrozen
[06:56] <ubotu> hydrozen: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[06:56] <hammedhaaret> stone123, where can you download it?
[06:57] <xtknight> hydrozen, right click propeties.  go to the last tab.  grab vendor ID and device ID of it (always there if you use XP SP2).  from VenID/DevID we can tell you
[06:57] <kingcobra> xtknight, it works
[06:57] <elkbuntu> hydrozen, #ubuntu+1 is full of people using/trying feisty too, so they might be able to tell you something
[06:57] <shamrock_hh> hydrozen: get something with an atheros chipset - I bought an Intel WPro 2200bg for next to nothing and it works beautifully (wpa too)
[06:57] <Answer> dying_sphynx, you could add /etc/init.d/networking restart to the end of your /etc/rc.local file if that works for you
[06:57] <xtknight> kingcobra, cool
[06:58] <dcordes> nalioth, i called it script.sh and made it chmod +x
[06:58] <dcordes> still no sh with nautilus
[06:58] <kingcobra> xtknight, can i restart and see what happens now
[06:58] <xtknight> kingcobra, i guess..if you want
[06:58] <ShadowSer> antyone know how to add dns addresses through terminal ?
[06:58] <ShadowSer> whats the command for that ?
[06:58] <xtknight> kingcobra, sudo umount /dev/sda3 | sudo mount -a
[06:58] <dying_sphynx> Answer, I have added new script for network restarting to init.d scripts and all works now. But I wonder why this bugs occurs
[06:58] <xtknight> does same thing
[06:58] <xtknight> ;P
[06:58] <kingcobra> xtknight, thanks very much
[06:58] <kingcobra> :)
[06:58] <xtknight> ShadowSer, /etc/nsswitch.conf
[06:58] <xtknight> errr
[06:59] <xtknight> jeez i always get that one wrong
[06:59] <dying_sphynx> Answer, is this some wpa_supplicant bug. Is it Ubuntu-specific?
[06:59] <ShadowSer> thx xtknight
[06:59] <eyeonus> I got this back: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper-security/Release.gpg  Could not connect to localhost:4001 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused)
[06:59] <xtknight> ShadowSer, hold on it's a different file under /etc/
[06:59] <kitche> Shadowpillar: sudo vim /etc/resolv.conf or gksu gedit /etc/resolv.conf
[06:59] <xtknight> that's it ^^
[06:59] <nalioth> dcordes: did you put as the first line of the script >>   #!/bin/sh  or #!/bin/bash  ?
[07:00] <stone123> hammedhaaret, go to ubuntu download and choose : compltete list
[07:00] <asdir> I wondered: Did anyone here have any problems with the Firefox-Add-on called 'allpeers' due to using linux/ubuntu?
[07:00] <ShadowSer> xtknight whats th other file ?
[07:00] <hydrozen> xtknight: PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4311
[07:00] <xtknight> ShadowSer, /etc/resolv.conf
[07:00] <dcordes> nalioth, nope just some random commands
[07:00] <eyeonus> What do you mean that's it?
[07:00] <xtknight> hydrozen, bcm4311
[07:00] <ardchoille> nalioth: Which is better? #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh
[07:00] <xtknight> !bcm43xx
[07:00] <ubotu> Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[07:00] <ShadowSer> :P
[07:00] <ardchoille> I guess /bin/sh would make it more portable.
[07:01] <nalioth> ardchoille: depends on what shell you prefer... i always use #!/bin/bash (but that's my preference)
[07:01] <ardchoille> nalioth: Ah, ok.
[07:01] <Answer> dying_sphynx, there is a flag for wpa_supplicant that tells it to wait for the interface to become available... you might need that somewhere
[07:01] <xtknight> eyeonus, sorry i'm not sure
[07:01] <dcordes> ardchoille, nalioth it is just to start comand and conquer tiberium wars with my wine on DISPLAY=:0 ;) ;)
[07:01] <hammedhaaret> stone123, thx a lot
[07:01] <dcordes> no portabillity required at all
[07:01] <ardchoille> dcordes: Nice :)
[07:01] <nalioth> dcordes: it still needs one of those entries in it . . .
[07:02] <dcordes> nalioth, yea got this and now it is startable
[07:02] <dcordes> thx
[07:02] <Answer> dying_sphynx, man wpa_supplicant, look at option -w,  it sounds like maybe your supplicant is being launched before the interface is available
[07:02] <kingcobra> xtknight, umount: only root can unmount /dev/sda3 from /media/external
[07:02] <kingcobra> eject: unmount of `/media/external' failed
[07:02] <xtknight> !#@$
[07:02] <kingcobra> i know
[07:02] <xtknight> kingcobra, probably pmount/gnome hal mounter conflicting
[07:02] <ardchoille> xtknight: lol
[07:02] <eyeonus> How do I configure the proxy?
[07:02] <jusama14> anyone know the command to launch cs from halflife?
[07:02] <benjb0> When the next version of ubuntu releases, do i have to format the current version and install afresh?
[07:03] <dying_sphynx> Answer, but wpa_cli status shows me that handshake is completed
[07:03] <Arcad3> wine hl.exe -game cstrike
[07:03] <dcordes> jusama14, you should consult http://appdb.winehq.org for such questions
[07:03] <xtknight> kingcobra, http://www.lowlevel.cz/log/pivot/entry.php?id=95
[07:03] <stone123> eyeonus, wiki-ubuntu.com and seach
[07:03] <IdleOne> benjb0, no you can upgrade
[07:03] <xtknight> kingcobra, have fun :P
[07:03] <Answer> dying_sphynx, is it set to dhcp or static?  maybe dhcp fails before you auth, then on restart it grabs dhcp address?
[07:03] <IdleOne> !upgrade > benjb0
[07:03] <dying_sphynx> Answer, and in general I can't see any difference between working and unworking cases (I'm comparing results of ifconfig, iwconfig, route, wpa_cli status, etc.)
[07:03] <kingcobra> xtknight, ok
[07:03] <apokryphos> ubotu: faq
[07:03] <ubotu> faq is http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions Official documentation is at http://help.ubuntu.com IRC FAQ: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage
[07:04] <dying_sphynx> Answer, Im using  static ip at the moment
[07:04] <knownbad> anyone have problem upgrading to 7.04beta?   mine hangs at fetching 379 of 390.
[07:04] <xtknight> it 'hangs'?
[07:04] <IdleOne> knownbad, hangs for how long
[07:04] <Answer> dying_sphynx, hm I dunno..  I have had to add dhclient to the end of rc.local to make it grab dhcp after auth.
[07:04] <knownbad> stop progressing?
[07:04] <benjb0> IdleOne: Will upgading update linux kernal?
[07:04] <w4nabe> hi.  i want to set up a postfix server on dapper lamp...can anybody suggest a tutorial
[07:04] <IdleOne> benjb0, yes
[07:04] <knownbad> i've waited for 10 mins then restarted.
[07:05] <xtknight> !lamp
[07:05] <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+)
[07:05] <knownbad> i am trying again here.
[07:05] <Zaggynl> How do I check when ubuntu was installed?
[07:05] <benjb0> Thanks IdleOne
[07:05] <stone123> !aptproxy > eyeonus
[07:05] <dying_sphynx> Answer, ok, thanks anyway.
[07:05] <Arcad3> !postfix
[07:05] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[07:05] <nalioth> benjb0: this is linux.  you'll never have to wipe and reinstall ever agin (unless you choose to)
[07:05] <Answer> dying_sphynx, my only other suggestion would be to look very closely at ifupdown and such
[07:05] <ElectriX> ciao a tutti
[07:05] <knownbad> 6.10 still works as i am here...:)
[07:05] <Arcad3> !it
[07:05] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[07:05] <dying_sphynx> Answer, I have read in ubuntuforums abot this, it is treated like a bug.. But I just want to know more about this. Maybe it is fixed now somehow
[07:06] <benjb0> nalioth: but i read somewhere that upgrading ubuntu to a new version is cumbersome! Is that true?
[07:06] <IdleOne> benjb0, it can be thats why you make backups of important files
[07:06] <Answer> dying_sphynx, you would just need to change your if-post-up to run that /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:06] <nalioth> benjb0: not at all
[07:06] <w4nabe> ty
[07:06] <benjb0> IdleOne, Why so?
[07:06] <knownbad> how long is 7.04beta upgrade download?   or how big?
[07:06] <Carnage> can anyone tell me what the keyboard shortcut to switch between desktops in kde is?
[07:07] <xtknight> knownbad, depends how many pkgs you have now
[07:07] <kothz> To save yourself some OMG THAT'S NOT ENGLISH angst, ciao a tutti just means 'bye to all' :)
[07:07] <IdleOne> benjb0, just in case something goes horribly wrong like you install windows vista or something
[07:07] <Arcad3> !postfix
[07:07] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[07:07] <IdleOne> benjb0, the upgrade will go fine and you shouldnt have any problems
[07:07] <apokryphos> Carnage: #kubuntu is generally better for KDE help in Ubuntu. If it's not ctrl+tab you have to set it in kde's systemsettings
[07:07] <knownbad> just plain dist upgrade.
[07:07] <benjb0> IdleOne, But if i'm just upgrading, willl everything be fine?
[07:08] <dying_sphynx> Answer, hmmm, but maybe it will cycle then - when it will restart networking - it will runn post-up again which will cause another restarting and so on
[07:08] <IdleOne> benjb0, yes
[07:08] <knownbad> i would assume just base packaged to start upgrading?
[07:08] <Carnage> ctrl + tab did the job :D
[07:08] <eyeonus> How do I find out what my proxy address and port is?
[07:08] <apokryphos> knownbad: plain dist-upgrade will probably break
[07:08] <apokryphos> knownbad: see /msg ubotu upgrade for info on upgrading
[07:08] <knownbad> still staying at preparing the upgrade...-_-
[07:08] <w4nabe> actually, it was https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto?highlight=%28postfix%29
[07:08] <Answer> dying_sphynx, ah yeah I guess so.  I hacked my one /etc/init.d/wpa_launch.sh and I posted to the bottom of  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo but nobody commented on it
[07:09] <IdleOne> knownbad, it could take some time give it a while
[07:09] <benjb0> IdleOne, on upgrading, will  "About Ubuntu" show that ubuntu is 7.01?
[07:09] <IdleOne> benjb0, no!
[07:09] <IdleOne> it will show 7.04
[07:09] <IdleOne> :P
[07:09] <Carnage> ahhh the joys oh having to relearn all the shortcut keys :p
[07:09] <eyeonus> How do I determine my proxy address/port?
[07:09] <benjb0> IdleOne: oh ok :). Thanks
[07:10] <gils> so no updates yet?
[07:10] <Carnage> on the other hand, at least linux dosn't take ~5 secs to change between desktops
[07:10] <Answer> eyeonus, if you don't already know just leave it auto
[07:10] <eyeonus> It doesn't work in auto.
[07:10] <dying_sphynx> Answer, at the moment I have resolved this problem in such way: created wireless.sh script, put it in /etc/init.d and add symlink in /etc/rcS.d/S40wireless to this script, in which networking is restarted
[07:10] <Carnage> next step... proper irc client
[07:11] <dying_sphynx> Answer, so now netowrking is restarted only on startup
[07:11] <IdleOne> benjb0, where do you see " About Ubuntu"?
[07:11] <dying_sphynx> Answer, I will take a look on your post in WPAHowTo now
[07:11] <Answer> dying_sphynx, yeah that is pretty much what I did.  that is what I posted to the end of that link
[07:12] <Answer> dying_sphynx, I made /etc/init.d/wpa_launch.sh and /etc/rcS.d/sXXwpa_launch
[07:12] <benjb0> IdleOne, in System->About Ubuntu
[07:12] <eyeonus> How do I find out what my proxy address and port is?
[07:12] <gils> what is going on with update manager today?
[07:12] <IdleOne> benjb0, funny I dont have that in Feisty
[07:12] <Answer> dying_sphynx, but even with that setup, I have had slow auth's require dhclient to be added to the end of /etc/rc.local so that it requests dhcp after the supplicant has a chance to auth
[07:12] <benjb0> IdleOne, dont you have About Gnome?
[07:12] <IdleOne> benjb0, yes
[07:13] <benjb0> IdleOne, So you didnt install edgy?
[07:13] <IdleOne> benjb0, I installed dapper>edgy>Feisty
[07:13] <dying_sphynx> Answer, Ok. thanks, if i would move to DHCP, I will use your advice :)
[07:14] <IdleOne> what was the codename before dapper?
[07:14] <benjb0> IdleOne, oh Feisty is the newer version ! sorry :)
[07:14] <Ali_ix> breezy
[07:14] <eyeonus> The ubuntu wiki says to make apt-get work through a proxy I need to edit the Acquire line of apt.conf to look like this: 'Acquire::http::Proxy "http://yourproxyaddress:proxyport";' How do I determine the address and port?
[07:14] <IdleOne> yeah I started at breezy
[07:14] <Ali_ix> IdleOne: breezy badger
[07:14] <IdleOne> ty Ali_ix
[07:14] <apokryphos> tough stuff :P
[07:15] <benjb0> IdleOne, and upgrading from breezy till fiesty doesnt created any problem??
[07:15] <apokryphos> benjb0: of course it does. Skipping a version number is explicitly not supported
[07:15] <IdleOne> benjb0, I upgraded in succession
[07:15] <benjb0> IdleOne, oh cool
[07:15] <IdleOne> benjb0, I did not skip versions
[07:16] <IdleOne> apokryphos, I remember taking 2 days to get java working
[07:16] <IdleOne> now it's apt-get away. lucky newbies
[07:16] <Ali_ix> anyone experiencing problem with gtk 1.x themes on feisty?
[07:17] <Ali_ix> what is with gtk-engines-smooth package? i cant find x86 binary package :|
[07:17] <Arcad3> gkt 1.x themes are for gtk 1
[07:17] <IdleOne> Ali_ix, feisty support in #ubuntu+1
[07:17] <Ali_ix> gtk 1.x programs look ugly
[07:17] <Arcad3> get gtk 2 themes ifu wanna work
[07:17] <Ali_ix> IdleOne: oh, sorry
[07:17] <J_P> hi all
[07:17] <FocusRite> Hi all. Is there a way to force the package status of a package (courier-authdaemon.. ahem) to be uninstalled so I can just have the new courier stuff overwrite it? Can't reinstall/purge/remove/install successfully (yeah it's a dapper -> edgy upgrade)
[07:17] <IdleOne> Ali_ix, thats ok just dont do it again or we will have to take your ubuntu away :P
[07:18] <J_P> Hey, Where is the prevision (day this month) for 7.4 release ?
[07:18] <Ali_ix> IdleOne: lol :)
[07:18] <wildgoosed> i kinda have a weird problem with my gui. when i boot my system, after i login, all i get is a grey box in the upper left window (not a terminal) its just grey, and all i see is the default human theme background. any ideas ?
[07:18] <teto> yo
[07:18] <wildgoosed> upper left corner of my screen sorry
[07:18] <doomster> FocusRite, just my 2cc: I'd rather concentrate my efforts at fixing the problem with courie than messing with the package system
[07:18] <xFlood> hello :) im new to ubuntu, but i want to help out :) can i help?
[07:18] <teto> can someone please tell me how to shut down a module
[07:19] <Answer> teto, modprobe -r <module>
[07:19] <IdleOne> xFlood, go ahead
[07:19] <teto> Answer> I tried it
[07:19] <teto> teto@teto-laptop:~$ sudo modprobe -r pwc
[07:19] <teto> FATAL: Module pwc is in use.
[07:20] <Answer> teto, first you would have to kill whatever program is using the module.  pwc is for webcams
[07:20] <doomster> teto: stop whatever process is using it. Try 'modinfo pwc' to get a clue what it does.
[07:20] <FocusRite> doomster, I tried all the normal ways i know with dpkg -r, apt-get -f and aptitude and they all fail the same way :o(
[07:20] <Zigurd> Has anyone encountered the partitioner hanging when trying to install?
[07:20] <wildgoosed> can anyone help with my gui issue ?
[07:20] <teto> dooglus>  Excellent
[07:21] <doomster> FocusRite, commiserations.
[07:21] <FocusRite> doomster: aye :o\
[07:21] <bronze_0_1> Zigurd: the king can have the petitioner hung if he deems their request is disrepectful to the crown
[07:21] <wildgoosed> when i login to my system, i get a grey window in my upper left corner of my screen (its not a terminal) and i get nothing else, any ideas ?
[07:22] <bart> HI, quick question , how can i exlude updates from the update-manager ? I don't want to update openoffice every time
[07:22] <bronze_0_1> wildgoosed: "they" are watching you......
[07:22] <FocusRite> I'm actually considering editing the dpkg status file... :o!
[07:22] <wildgoosed> bronze_0_1 hah :P
[07:22] <Khoix> where can i get drivers for a logitech mx400 so my browser buttons will work?
[07:22] <Zigurd> bronze, how did you know I meant to say that in a Massachusetts accent?
[07:22] <bronze_0_1> :-)
[07:22] <wildgoosed> naa serious this is weird :S
[07:22] <doomster> FocusRite, maybe I'd try to supply any info but the _totally_ _useless_ "it doesn't work"?
[07:22] <teto> doomster> what line indicates the processus to kill
[07:22] <teto> cos nothing works with the camera
[07:22] <bronze_0_1> Zigurd: I live near Boston. I could just "tell".
[07:23] <Zigurd> I have found numerous mentions of the partitioner hanging, but no workarounds.
[07:23] <shoot^> fellas, hows linux/ubuntu specific ntfs write support coming along? i've been running slackware for a few years on a couple of servers, and have decided its time to make the move over to ubuntu on my main rig. problem is, i do a fair bit of multimedia work, and have a few large hard drives (250gb +) full of rendered data that i dont want to throw away...
[07:23] <teto> I mean nothing is running & depending on pwc
[07:23] <doomster> teto, you see the second column of lsmod, that is the reference counter. You can only remove the module if that reaches zero.
[07:23] <IdleOne> !ntfs > shoot^
[07:23] <intEx> I'm having some trouble with installing Nvidia drivers for my graphics-card. It says I don't have any libc header files installed. Anyone can help?
[07:23] <doomster> teto, now, you might use 'lsof' to see which process has the device node open (under /dev/..)
[07:24] <shoot^> IdleOne - im more specifically interested in write support...
[07:24] <yoran> lkgf
[07:24] <IdleOne> !fuse
[07:24] <shoot^> i know read works :)
[07:24] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[07:24] <shoot^> cheers :)
[07:24] <IdleOne> yup
[07:24] <ditoa> hi everyone
[07:24] <IdleOne> !ntfs-3g > shoot^
[07:25] <bronze_0_1> http://www.linux-ntfs.org/
[07:25] <ditoa> i am looking for a laptop that will run ubuntu perfectly (e.g supported wireless, graphics card, etc)
[07:25] <teto> doomster> I don't know how to find the processus using pwc with lsof
[07:25] <bronze_0_1> last update july 2006
[07:25] <teto> I know there is one but which one :s
[07:25] <Answer> ditoa, I have had no problems with a dell inspiron 600m and a lenovo thinkpad r60
[07:26] <freezey> is there a server ready version of ubuntu? coming preinstalled with ssh apache etc?
[07:26] <ditoa> thanks Answer
[07:26] <doomster> teto: try "lsof|grep pwc", the second column is the process ID which you can supply to the "kill" command.
[07:26] <ditoa> i saw http://www.system76.com/ on digg the other day however they are US only :(
[07:26] <intEx> I'm having some trouble with installing Nvidia drivers for my graphics-card. It says I don't have any libc header files installed. Anyone can help?
[07:26] <freezey> is there a server ready version of ubuntu? coming preinstalled with ssh apache etc?
[07:26] <ditoa> intEx: did you install build-essential?
[07:27] <Ali_ix> !server
[07:27] <Zelest> On my keyboard, I have a volume control thingie.. However, when I press it, it seems to change the volume of the wrong soundcard (I have two installed) .. how can I specify which soundcard that's the "default" one to use?
[07:27] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[07:27] <elkbuntu> !patience | freezey
[07:27] <stone123> freezey, #ubuntu-server
[07:27] <ubotu> freezey: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[07:27] <intEx> Nope, don't even know what that is... (I've had Linux for a day now) =)
[07:27] <Ali_ix> !server | freezey
[07:27] <ubotu> freezey: please see above
[07:28] <crackintosh> is there an ubuntu server channel?
[07:28] <ditoa> intEx: my guess would be to install build-essential (sudo apt-get install build-essential) to start off, that way you have gcc, etc
[07:28] <ditoa> i found it resolved most build problems
[07:28] <Ali_ix> crackintosh: #ubuntu-server
[07:28] <Answer> freezey, you might want to look into lampp
[07:29] <teto> doomster>  lsof | grep pwc indicates nothing
[07:29] <Ali_ix> Answer: ubuntu server editions icludes lamp and ssh (i think)
[07:29] <intEx> Well, thanks for the help. I'll just fix that with Adept Manager. You got any good websites on the subject? I'd like to get a better understanding of it all... =)
[07:29] <teto> yet I have one processus running using pwc
[07:29] <teto> ( lsmod tells so )
[07:29] <ditoa> www.ubuntuguide.org is what i have been using with ubuntu 6.10
[07:30] <ditoa> i just read through the contents of the site and read the bits i was interested in
[07:30] <maikol> im getting this error with apt: Dynamic MMap ran out of room  Error occurred while processing apache-perl (NewVersion1) Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/security.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy-security_universe_binary-i386_Packages The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
[07:30] <logicus> question:if you want to upgrade to feisty, does that mean that all the programs installed and all the peronal data , like files and stuff will be deleted
[07:30] <logicus> personal
[07:30] <Answer> teto, what started all of this anyways?  why do you want to kill the pwc module
[07:30] <intEx> Well, thanks a lot for everything. I'll try that, and then come back, if anything new comes up!
[07:30] <Ali_ix> logicus: no
[07:30] <stone123> what is the name of textbased mnitoring tool for cpu temperature ?
[07:30] <teto> to reinstall an other version
[07:31] <Ali_ix> !upgrade | logicus
[07:31] <ubotu> logicus: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:31] <ditoa> good luck!
[07:31] <teto> since my webcam is recognized but I 've no image
[07:31] <Answer> teto, what program are you using to view the webcam?
[07:31] <logicus> cool.. thanks, Ali_ix and ubotu
[07:31] <Pugwash> hey guys, I gotta question,
[07:31] <aubade> stone123: yacpi?
[07:31] <Answer> !ask | Pugwash
[07:31] <ubotu> Pugwash: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:31] <teto> I would like to use it with wengo but I tried with camorama
[07:31] <teto> first
[07:31] <logicus> btw, is upgrading to the lates version still unsafe ?
[07:31] <Pugwash> gnome-system-monitor says I've got 2 xorgs running, is that normal
[07:31] <Answer> teto, kill camorama then you should be able to modprobe -r pwc
[07:32] <teto> I also installed xawtv but it works with none of them
[07:32] <stone123> aubade, yacpi is useless
[07:32] <teto> camorama isn't running
[07:32] <Phrozen_One> whats the "pretty output" on most distros bootup sequence, like you have dmesg's output which look "technical" but I'm looking for the pretty version the user sees upon bootup
[07:32] <teto> I even disconnected my cam
[07:32] <logicus> I only ask, cause I'm using ubuntu as a production system
[07:32] <Answer> teto, something is running which is still using the pwc module.  kill the process then you will be able to modprobe -r the module
[07:32] <teto> I know but I don't find that process
[07:32] <Ali_ix> logicus: if you follow guides you can have a safe upgrade with no data loos!
[07:33] <Juancabri> hi, can anybody help me with the partitions for ubuntu?
[07:33] <Answer> logicus, feisty is not released for production yet.  stick with the stable images
[07:33] <teto> and have no idea of what it may be
[07:33] <Pugwash> ?
[07:33] <logicus> cool.. I'll wait then
[07:33] <Ali_ix> !info sbackup | logicus
[07:33] <ubotu> logicus: sbackup: Simple Backup Suite for desktop use. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.10.3 (edgy), package size 59 kB, installed size 468 kB
[07:34] <Ali_ix> !info gtk-engines-smooth
[07:34] <ubotu> Package gtk-engines-smooth does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[07:34] <Pugwash> anybody know if that's normal?
[07:34] <Juancabri> I've tried to patition in four primary parts: 1)NTFS 2)/home 3)/ 4)swap, but now doesn't boot
[07:34] <teto> I will try to restart
[07:34] <Juancabri> what am I doing wrong
[07:34] <jocelynr10> i'm trying to get ubuntu off my computer. i took the partition off completely and now my computer won't boot, giving me Error 22. can anyone help?
[07:34] <logicus> sudo apt-get install sbackup
[07:35] <bart> HI, quick question , how can i exlude updates from the update-manager ? I don't want to update openoffice every time
[07:35] <jocelynr10> i'm trying to get ubuntu off my computer. i took the partition off completely and now my computer won't boot, giving me Error 22. can anyone help?
[07:35] <Pugwash> I've not noticed 2 Xorgs running before, just noticed it today in conky, they're taking up 74 mb each
[07:36] <Ali_ix> !repeat | jocelynr10
[07:36] <Juancabri> jocelynr10: How did you took the partition off?
[07:36] <ubotu> jocelynr10: 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
[07:36] <Answer> Pugwash, kill one of them and see if your system survives.
[07:36] <Ali_ix> lol
[07:36] <NBrepresent> any gparted pros in here?
[07:36] <Pugwash> ok, so its not normal then?
[07:36] <aubade> I think it actually is normal.
[07:37] <Juancabri> I've tried to patition in four primary parts: 1)NTFS 2)/home 3)/ 4)swap, but now doesn't boot
[07:37] <Pugwash> it is?
[07:37] <Answer> Pugwash, it should start up displays for ctrl+alt+f7 and ctrl+alt+f8 etc
[07:37] <jocelynr10> i took the partition off by booting from the cd, then using the partition manager
[07:37] <NBrepresent> i resized my windows smaller, which left unallocated space. now i want to have the extended partition with my linux ext3 and swap to expand into that unallocated space. that's the tough part.
[07:37] <Pugwash> ok, let me just kill it, how do i start xserver  if it goes tits up
[07:37] <Answer> Pugwash, reboot :)
[07:38] <logicus> just setup backup suite :-) pretty cool
[07:38] <aubade> Pugwash: Assuming you have a login manager running, GDM/KDM should just restart... or one would hope. lol
[07:38] <Pugwash> kk, I've just tried to kill one of em through gsm and its not going
[07:38] <jocelynr10> how do i make my computer find windows again?
[07:38] <Juancabri> jocelynr10: and if you want to get rid of ubuntu why don't you took the partitions off with the new OS you want to install?
[07:39] <aubade> ^ lol
[07:39] <jocelynr10> Juancabri: i already had windows on it
[07:39] <Juancabri> I've tried to patition in four primary parts: 1)NTFS 2)/home 3)/ 4)swap, but now doesn't boot
[07:39] <logicus> is there a way to create your own internet search engine with your own configured spider in linux ?
[07:39] <Ali_ix> jocelynr10: you need a fixmbr with xp recovery mode
[07:40] <Ali_ix> logicus: why not?
[07:40] <jocelynr10> a what? i'm sorry, i don't know much about this
[07:40] <logicus> Ali_ix : :-)
[07:40] <Pugwash> killing the other one restarted my xsession
[07:40] <Juancabri> I've tried to patition in four primary parts: 1)NTFS 2)/home 3)/ 4)swap, but now doesn't boot
[07:41] <Pugwash> had to login again
[07:41] <Ali_ix> Pugwash: killed both of them?
[07:41] <jocelynr10> i tried fixing windows with the windows cd, but if i reinstall i will lose everything
[07:41] <Pugwash> no, on of them refuses to be killed, the other one killed my session
[07:41] <Juancabri> I've tried to patition in four primary parts installing ubuntu: 1)NTFS 2)/home 3)/ 4)swap, but now doesn't boot, what's the problem?
[07:41] <aubade> Pugwash: Yeah, GDM daemon restarted Xorg itself. Weird that it had two instances but it isn't unusual for a program to have multiple PIDs.
[07:42] <Pugwash> ah it could be that, multiple pids
[07:42] <aubade> Firefox itself is spread across six PID's atm, for instance.
[07:42] <noppe> what's the difference between dapper 6.06.1 and 6.06 is .1 a "service pack" release?
[07:42] <Pugwash> how do I check if its the same program?
[07:42] <Ali_ix> noppe: not really a service pack release! :|
[07:42] <Ali_ix> Pugwash: check pid file
[07:42] <jocelynr10> what's fixmbr?
[07:43] <aubade> No idea, if the resource usage (proc %, RES/SHR memory) are the same, it's probably spread.
[07:43] <Pugwash> how do i check pid file, sorry
[07:43] <mina_linux_Tux> hey i'm using ubuntu 6.10 Alternate CD, with my PIII box with 96 MB of Ram, i have a touchScreen http://www.irtouch.com/unitop_en2/download.asp, which they provide its driver as a Kernel module *.ko and *.O , they said i have to insmod to install it and edit xorg.conf, m what i'm asking for , is that requires always a Kernel recompile or it's only when i use to compile a module and insert it to the kernel ... ?.. any comment ?
[07:43] <noppe> Ali_ix: well what is it just an updated version or what? :)
[07:43] <Ali_ix> jocelynr10: a command in xp recovery mode that rewrite master boot record to boot from windows
[07:43] <Ali_ix> noppe: jus a new release.. check change logs;)
[07:43] <Juancabri>  I've tried to patition in four primary parts installing ubuntu: 1)NTFS 2)/home 3)/ 4)swap, but now doesn't boot, what's the problem?
[07:43] <jocelynr10> how do i get to windows xp recovery mode if i can't get anything to boot at all
[07:43] <FocusRite> Well.. that was easier than I thought it was going to be.. deleted the courier-authdaemon entry from the dpkg status file and reinstalled the new Edgy Courier-imap
[07:43] <jocelynr10> ?
[07:43] <noppe> Ali_ix: meh :) thanks
[07:44] <Zelest> How do I specify which soundcard I'm using? :O
[07:44] <Pugwash> aubade, they're both taking up 3.22% of my memory
[07:44] <FocusRite> had to recreate the Maildir's in the homedirs and that was it
[07:44] <palm76> @juancarbi:ubunttu doesn't install to ntfs.

[07:44] <mina_linux_Tux> hello ppl any  commment ????
[07:44] <Ali_ix> jocelynr10: with a xp installation cd

[07:44] <skalca> hello
[07:44] <skalca> ani slovenian
[07:44] <zbrown> palm76: his / is partition 3, so it should be ok.
[07:45] <zbrown> Juancabri: thats pretty vague, gonna need more info than that.
[07:45] <Ali_ix> !slovenian
[07:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about slovenian - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:45] <FocusRite> mina: I have no idea, I'd expect it to be in the kernal, though.. as a HID maybe?
[07:45] <_Roman> Hello, I am trying to ssh forward X11 traffic for playing back videos accross the network.  I can login to my server using ssh -Y 192.168.x.x -l user  I can then execute mplayer which will play the video on my local machine.  However I do not get any sound, can anyone help?
[07:45] <aubade> Probably the same just spread out, I don't know too much about how PIDs are assigned to be honest but I've noticed things like to have multiple PIDs. Namely Python interpreter and Firefox/Iceweasel.
[07:45] <Juancabri> palm76: I know, I did, but I wanted to have some space reserved for an eventual Windows install
[07:45] <jocelynr10> ok, i'll try
[07:45] <jocelynr10> thanks
[07:45] <mina_linux_Tux> ppl any other comments ?
[07:45] <mina_linux_Tux> FocusRite:  HID ?
[07:45] <palm76> my mistake,didn't read it correctly ;-)
[07:45] <zbrown> Juancabri: you're probably better off installing windows first, and then linux
[07:45] <fotoflo> hmm how come my router doesnt know the "computer name" for my ubuntu boxes?
[07:45] <skalca> any slowenian online
[07:46] <Pugwash> ok, thanks I'm probably being paranoid
[07:46] <zbrown> Juancabri: otherwise you'll have the joy of having to reinstall your bootloader because Windows will eat the bootloader when you install it on that hdd
[07:46] <Landon> Hey all, I need a little help in mounting, can anyone help me out?
[07:46] <Yasuo> namd/hi
[07:47] <zbrown> Landon: sure, what you trying to mount?

[07:47] <Landon> zbrown: I'm trying to mount an iso, and I can't get it to work
[07:47] <Pugwash> thanks for the help
[07:47] <mina_linux_Tux> AM I OFF-TOPIC ?
[07:47] <aubade> mina_linux_Tux: Nice hat. (?)
[07:47] <Juancabri> zbrown: then maybe I will errase the NTFS partition for now
[07:47] <Ali_ix> mina_linux_Tux: no
[07:47] <BrazUbuntu> gentlemen, what other icon like MacOS style bar there is besides gdesklets... ? Seen some cool ones on Beryl movies...

[07:48] <Ezep> can anyone help me plz?
[07:48] <Ali_ix> Ezep: go on
[07:48] <aubade> BrazUbuntu: KWM can have a bar at the top, there was a project that started in the Ubuntu forums to displace the GTK menu accels in a bar at the top of the screen but it's name escapes me.
[07:48] <zbrown> !find dock | BrazUbuntu
[07:48] <andys> ezep: whats up?

[07:48] <bitslim> hi, someone experienced in making keyboard layouts? i've an apple powerbook g4 12'... i've installed kubuntu but my i can't find a suitable keyboard layout... i can't digit the # and @ characters for example...
[07:48] <aubade> Oh, he's asking for a dock... where's a book I can smack my head with...
[07:49] <Juancabri> zbrown: if later I need to install Windows I will have to format the disk again?
[07:49] <zbrown> Juancabri:
[07:49] <zbrown> oops
[07:49] <mina_linux_Tux> at least there is no guide for a module insert for Ubuntu ?
[07:49] <zbrown> Juancabri: no, but you'll have to reinstall your boot loader
[07:49] <Landon> zbrown: Thanks, so should I just make a new directory for the iso in /mnt?
[07:49] <BrazUbuntu> aubade, thnx dude
[07:49] <zbrown> Landon: yup
[07:49] <bandolero> my app is giving me the following error

[07:49] <zbrown> bandolero: sounds bad
[07:49] <bandolero> Internet Explorer is installed, MDAC is installed, etc...
[07:49] <shamrock`> can xp be configured to read ext3 filesystems?
[07:49] <Ezep> "ACPI:Unable to locate RSDP" is the error when i start the live cd....
[07:49] <anut> Does Fiesty come with (or, failing that, does anyone know where I can get) a good graphical tool for LVM management?
[07:49] <zbrown> shamrock`: not nicely, there are ext2 drivers out there, but its not reliable
[07:49] <bandolero> zbrown: bad as in?
[07:50] <zbrown> bandolero: was sarcasm lol
[07:50] <shamrock`> readonly ok? Want to access my ext3 videos
[07:50] <skalca>  can any tell me is there any slowenian on irc
[07:50] <Juancabri> zbrown: what`s the boot loader excuse me?
[07:50] <zbrown> Juancabri: grub or lilo
[07:50] <zbrown> Juancabri: typically grub in ubuntu
[07:50] <aubade> BrazUbuntu: If you meant a dock (bottom of MacOS interface, shortcuts and widget-like tools) read what obotu spat out earlier. Thought you meant a bar like MacOS uses with the window controls and alike. :P
[07:50] <zbrown> Juancabri: if you don't have grub, you can't boot linux

[07:51] <Juancabri> Ezep: did you check for disk errors?
[07:51] <zbrown> Juancabri: if you install linux now, you'll be fine. You'll have to leave space for the windows partition, now typically windows likes to be the first partition in a drive, so you need to leave the first patition blank. When you decide to install windows you'll end up overwriting the MBR
[07:51] <Ezep> i tryed 3 cds
[07:51] <Landon> zbrown: It says that -# is a command not found
[07:51] <zbrown> Juancabri: when you overwrite the MBR, grub will be gone, and you'll need to boot into rescue mode
[07:52] <_Roman> can anyone tell me how I can get audio to work when doing ssh X tunnelling?
[07:52] <zbrown> Landon: don't put the ~#, just from "mount" onwards
[07:52] <Ezep> maybe i have to try the 10? Juancabri?
[07:52] <Ali_ix> skalca: just write your language code after "!" sybol to get guided via bots
[07:52] <fotoflo> hmm how come my router doesnt know the "computer name" for my ubuntu boxes?  if i #ssh mybox the computer finds it, but nslookup mybox doesnt find it
[07:52] <shamrock`> !uuid
[07:52] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[07:52] <skalca> tnx
[07:52] <zbrown> Juancabri: you'll need to boot into rescue mode with the ubuntu cd that is
[07:52] <neil__> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/104596
[07:52] <neil__> anyone offer any advice on this?
[07:52] <Juancabri> Ezep: maybe
[07:52] <Landon> zbrown: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0
[07:53] <neil__> I don't know if theres something I should try, but i /really/ need my system to do standby properly..
[07:53] <zbrown> Landon: hmmm
[07:53] <Ezep> Juancabri: :S
[07:53] <zbrown> Landon: what iso is it?
[07:53] <maikol> soluting to my problem, for future reference: edit /etc/apt/apt.conf.f/70debconf and add the line APT::Cache-Limit "20000000";
[07:53] <neil__> hangs on resume from suspend to ram..
[07:53] <Landon> zbrown: Just a game
[07:53] <Juancabri> zbrown: Then how do I leave the first partition blank?
[07:53] <Ezep> why i never get support from here? it s a chaos...
[07:54] <aguazz> q
[07:54] <zbrown> Juancabri: manually partition when you install, make 4 partitions, leave the first one blank, setup the / as the second, swap as the third, and /home as the fourth
[07:54] <Ali_ix> Ezep: bad luck :( me too
[07:54] <Juancabri> Ezep: You only have to get used to it
[07:54] <zbrown> Landon: hmmm
[07:54] <zbrown> Landon: gimme one sec
[07:54] <Ezep> Juancabri: i tryed with 1 Ubuntu 6.06 and 2 6.10 :S
[07:54] <nexes> Does anyone know the line needed to recompile the latest nvidia drivers for your kernel in Edgy?
[07:54] <Ezep> and ever the same error
[07:54] <Landon> zbrown: Thanks, I tried it with a DVD iso and got the same thing, so I don't think it's the iso
[07:54] <nexes> I can't get to a browser..
[07:55] <maikol> nexes: are you using the nvidia installer from the nvidia site?
[07:55] <nexes> maikol: Yes, I am.
[07:55] <mina_linux_Tux> may anyone check this http://pastebin.ca/431448 and tell does it work with ubuntu , as there is no a module for ubuntu nor debian for this touch screen
[07:55] <maikol> nexes: sh NVIDIA*
[07:55] <maikol> nexes: or whatever the package name is
[07:55] <Juancabri> Ezep: I don't know what could be wrong, sorry. Keep asking, somebody will eventually help you
[07:55] <nexes> Oh, it didn't install anything?
[07:55] <Ezep> Juancabri: ok
[07:56] <nexes> Okay.
[07:56] <zbrown> Landon: private message?
[07:57] <Juancabri> zbrown: Thank you. Can or should I make an extended partition for /home and swap?
[07:57] <Ezep> "ACPI:Unable to locate RSDP" is the error that ubuntu put when i start the live cd....
[07:57] <durnew> how do i shutdown X and get a terminal?   :\
[07:57] <ardchoille> zbrown: You won't see his pm posts as he is not id'd to nickserv.
[07:57] <zbrown> Juancabri: you wouldn't need to i dont think, i think w/ 4 you'd be fine w/ primary partitions
[07:57] <zbrown> ardchoille: oh ok, nm then
[07:57] <zbrown> thanks ardchoille
[07:57] <ardchoille> You're welcome :)
[07:58] <feistyman> Hey, I'm having trouble saving images and pages in Firefox. This has never happened before. I tell it to save, but there is nothing there. Anyone have a solution?
[07:58] <tuco> guys when I type alsamixer and press F2, there are three choices: 0 for intel, 1 for my webcam (?) and 2 for my audigy. How can have the 2 by default instead of 0?
[07:58] <bluefox83> durnew, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:58] <mhoney> Would it be better to recompile the i386 kernel or go with the x64 ubuntu for an 8gig machine?  I am looking for stability, not speed
[07:59] <Ali_ix> durnew: if you need a terminal press ctrl+alt+f1 - f6
[07:59] <Tomg> hi, dos anyone know of a uk retailer that sells laptops with linux preinstalled? or even no os?
[07:59] <Juancabri> zbrown: is it bad if I make that, I mean, am extended partition for swap?
[07:59] <erUSUL> !boot > Ezep
[07:59] <tuco> anyone for my audigy 2 question? :-)
[07:59] <bluefox83> mhoney, is it a 64bit proc you're running?
[07:59] <zbrown> Juancabri: i have no idea, but i would put swap on the primary if you're considering extended just in case
[07:59] <fotoflo> err how come gnome is so damn slow?
[07:59] <zbrown> Juancabri: /home on extended should be fine
[07:59] <zbrown> fotoflo: mine's not :)
[08:00] <mhoney> yah, its a new xeon conroe
[08:00] <fotoflo> zbrown why is mine?
[08:00] <bluefox83> mhoney, try the 64bit one first then...
[08:00] <zbrown> fotoflo: whats system specs?
[08:00] <masternave> can anyone help me with a fglrx?
[08:00] <mhoney> ok will do thanks
[08:00] <Tomg> masternave: whats the problem?
[08:00] <geggam> ok beryl is sorta wierd
[08:00] <Ali_ix> masternave: what is problem?
[08:00] <zbrown> mhoney: well for linux the only thing 64bit really is the kernel, most userland programs are 32bit unlesss compiled otherwise
[08:01] <zbrown> masternave: gotta tell us the problem to get an answer ;)
[08:01] <masternave> Every time I do the tut on the wiki, I do it correctly,
[08:01] <masternave> But X crashes.
[08:01] <zbrown> masternave: first, what version of ubuntu?
[08:01] <masternave> I had it working,
[08:01] <masternave> edgy
[08:01] <fotoflo> 2.1 ghz Celeron, 768mb ram
[08:01] <Ali_ix> masternave: what is you vga model?
[08:01] <zbrown> fotoflo: hmmm not sure, that should be just fine w/ gnome.
[08:01] <Tomg> masternave: what card?
[08:01] <masternave> uhh, what does that mean.
[08:01] <mhoney> In the past I have had some trouble with marvel yukon drivers on 64 bit... just wondered if other drivers were still buggy under 64bit
[08:01] <masternave> Ooh.
[08:01] <zbrown> fotoflo: i run gnome on my dad's laptop with similar specs.
[08:01] <fotoflo> zbrown, its really slow
[08:01] <masternave> Radeon 9600
[08:02] <zbrown> fotoflo: check top, see if anything's hogging processes
[08:02] <Tomg> masternave: u install from the repo?
[08:02] <fotoflo> yeah...
[08:02] <zbrown> fotoflo: type 'top' in the cli
[08:02] <Ezep> "ACPI:Unable to locate RSDP" is the error that ubuntu put when i start the live cd....
[08:02] <fotoflo> if i watch video it goes right to the top
[08:02] <masternave> 9600 XT
[08:02] <Ali_ix> masternave: i have seen many people having roblem with radeon 9*** :(
[08:02] <zbrown> fotoflo: whats your vid card?
[08:02] <masternave> I'm not in ubuntu right now, I was just wondering.
[08:02] <fotoflo> i should be able to watch a 1024x768 video without maxing out my cpu
[08:02] <fotoflo> onboard
[08:02] <zbrown> fotoflo: watching video is directly related to your vidcard, not gnome
[08:02] <zbrown> fotoflo: well what driver is it using?
[08:02] <Tomg> masternave: what you getting in your Xorg.x.log ?
[08:03] <masternave> hang on.
[08:03] <Juancabri> zbrown: Thank you again.  Will I be able to use the space of the non-formated partition?
[08:03] <fotoflo> zbrown: err how do i find out?
[08:03] <zbrown> vid playback in vesa/vga drivers is crap
[08:03] <zbrown> Juancabri: if you format it to a specific filesystem type

[08:05] <kevinh90> hello
[08:05] <HereBeDragon> zbrown: thanks for the suggestion
[08:05] <Juancabri> Anyone know if it's wrong or not to put swap in a extended partition?
[08:06] <kevinh90> i need help with getting direct rendering working on my graphics card

[08:06] <Tomg> kevinh90: is it supported by radeon drivers?
[08:06] <HereBeDragon> it's tcl8.4-dev
[08:06] <Juancabri>  Anyone know if it's wrong or not to put swap in a extended partition?
[08:07] <kevinh90> Tomg: no
[08:07] <Tomg> Juancabri : dont u need to format it to a swap?
[08:07] <kevinh90> Tomg: it uses mach64 drivers
[08:07] <Answer> Juancabri, you should let the partition manager do what it wants...
[08:07] <kevinh90> and i cant get the drm mach64 thing to compile
[08:07] <Tomg> kevinh90: oh right, ive no experience with those drivers, what error are you getting?
[08:08] <zbrown> Juancabri: you can have a max of 4 primary, and can make logicals, why not just use one primary as your swap and put the / and /home on an extended?
[08:08] <kevinh90> i got this line from the log file:(typing it now)
[08:08] <kevinh90> /home/kevin/Desktop/mach64-20060403-linux.i386/drm/linux-core/drmP.h:44:26: error: linux/config.h: No such file or directory
[08:08] <rezker> does anyone know command to clear system logs?
[08:08] <Juancabri> Answer: I want an empty partition, one for the / and one for the /home
[08:08] <fotoflo> zbrown, did the name of that driver mean anything to you?
[08:08] <Tomg> kevinh90 : do you have the kernel source/headers?
[08:08] <kevinh90> the install.sh script says to make sure i have the latest kernel headers(i have them)
[08:08] <zbrown> fotoflo: seems it should be 'accelerated'
[08:09] <zbrown> fotoflo: i would try other window managers, see if they do the same
[08:09] <jordilin> rezker: what system logs do you want to clear?
[08:09] <zbrown> maybe try out XFCe and see what happens
[08:09] <Tomg> kevinh90 : id get the source as well, just to be sure
[08:09] <kevinh90> i did
[08:09] <fotoflo> zbrown: is that a 2 step process?
[08:09] <fotoflo> or a 20 step one?
[08:09] <Tomg> kevinh90: if not try passing the location of the headers to configure
[08:09] <jordilin> rezker, normally cat /dev/null > filename
[08:09] <Cidwele> hallo
[08:09] <Juancabri> zbrown: But if I put / and /home in an extended I'm afraid i will lose my files if I reinstall ubuntu
[08:09] <zbrown> fotoflo: dunno, i generally use the default on the system, you can install Xubuntu
[08:09] <rezker> just clear from /var/logs i dont want to do this manually :P
[08:09] <kevinh90> Tomg: it automatically finds it
[08:10] <kevinh90> and it appears to be finding the correct one
[08:10] <zbrown> Juancabri: you wont so long as you don't mess with those partitions
[08:10] <zbrown> Juancabri: extended or primary is of no matter to linux, it won't mess with them and neither will XP
[08:10] <zbrown> thye only touch the partitions you tell them to Juancabri
[08:10] <Ezep> "ACPI:Unable to locate RSDP" is the error that ubuntu put when i start the live cd....
[08:10] <Tomg> kevinh90: try doing a locate on linux/config.h
[08:10] <jordilin> rezker, I would post this to ubuntuforums
[08:11] <zbrown> Juancabri: so here's what you do, Primary1: this is empty, Primary2: this is swap, Primary3: this is two extended partitions, Extended1: this is /, Extended2: this is /home
[08:11] <zbrown> Juancabri: that setup will be fine, your data on /home will be safe

[08:13] <kevinh90> oh its the f
[08:13] <xtknight> or xf
[08:13] <maxell> Okay just gonna install ubuntu
[08:13] <zbrown> fotoflo: If you're not willing to trouble shoot then you're not willing to fix it.
[08:13] <LamerC> Just a home computer with 5 user accounts.  I'm wondering of an automated way to backup the user name/id/etc mappings so they will be the same after.
[08:13] <zbrown> LamerC: hmmm
[08:13] <LamerC> I know I can manually specify user/group numbers when creating, just wondering if there is an automated way
[08:13] <Ezep> Juancabri: the answer is "boot:noacpi"
[08:13] <zbrown> LamerC: i was gonna suggest NIS, but thats overkill for 5 users lol
[08:14] <kevinh90> i am extracting the source
[08:14] <h00t> does anyone know how to reload gnome menu
[08:14] <Tomg> LamerC: maybe in the /etc/passwd /etc/shadow files?
[08:14] <kevinh90> maybe that will help :S
[08:14] <Answer> h00t, ctrl+alt+backspace will do it
[08:14] <Tomg> kevinh90 : lol hopefully
[08:14] <Ali_ix> h00t: just clean your ~/.gnome/ to get a fresh gnoke look and settings
[08:14] <LamerC> I could just backup desired parts of the password and group files and merge them in after?
[08:14] <ravi_master> would this http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/ndiswrapper-1.1/ packages work in fiesty?
[08:14] <h00t> Answer: doesn't that kill the whole
[08:14] <ardchoille> kevinh90: What are you compiling?
[08:15] <h00t> xX
[08:15] <h00t> X
[08:15] <Ali_ix> h00t: make a backup first
[08:15] <Arcad3> how can i make a ext3 partition (the partition is formated) from terminal ?
[08:15] <Juancabri> zbrown: Ok, thank you again.
[08:15] <kevinh90> dri
[08:15] <Answer> h00t, yeah it kills your X session but it will reload gnome-menu
[08:15] <kevinh90> so i can have the mach64 kernel module
[08:15] <ardchoille> kevinh90: Ah, nice.
[08:15] <zbrown> Juki: anytime
[08:15] <h00t> i know for sure that there's an actual option somewhere "reload gnome menu"
[08:16] <Arcad3> how can i format a partition as ext from terminal ?
[08:16] <Answer> Arcad3, you should look into gparted
[08:16] <Fizzbane> How do I add an internal NTFS Sata drive so I can see the files on Ubuntu?
[08:16] <Tomg> kevinh90 : i dont have the config.h either..... thats wierd
[08:16] <zbrown> Arcad3: mkfs.ext3 -b 4096 /dev/<whatever>
[08:16] <Arcad3> thanks
[08:16] <zbrown> Arcad3: mind you you'll need a number after the devic e name
[08:17] <zbrown> Arcad3: ie: /dev/hda4
[08:17] <h00t> Fizzbane: mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/ntfs
[08:17] <neil__> hey all, i need to a try a workaround for something
[08:17] <neil__> what helped me, was adding the boot parameter "acpi_sleep=s3_bios,s3_mode" in the grub. as far as i know in some computers only s3_bios or s3_mode is neeeded (not both)
[08:17] <Arcad3> 4096 is the size of the partition?
[08:17] <Arcad3> or?
[08:17] <neil__> ^^ how do I do the above?
[08:17] <neil__> I need to add those 2 things into grub boot
[08:17] <Fizzbane> h00t: thanks
[08:17] <zbrown> Arcad3: its the block size
[08:17] <zbrown> Arcad3: 4096 is pretty standard, don't touch it ;)
[08:18] <feistyman> Can someone please help me with saving files and images with Firefox. It's just not working.
[08:18] <Tomg> kevinh90: http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-mach64/
[08:18] <Arcad3> thanks qtparted is useless
[08:18] <ltibor65> Hi guys! How are you? I am fine, I am drinking a good red wine.
[08:18] <ardchoille> config.h is part of linux-kernel-headers, iirc
[08:18] <zbrown> Arcad3: most of those kinda things are
[08:18] <Arcad3> worked like a charm
[08:18] <zbrown> Arcad3: yup

[08:19] <ben__> Hi, I installed ubuntu server and would like to run some X-clients remotely from that machine.  But when I connect to the box with ssh and an X-tunnel setup, it tells me that it cannot open the display.  what #ubuntu channel should I join?
[08:19] <Fizzbane> h00t: where is the hd located now that it has been mounted?
[08:20] <ardchoille> kevinh90: config.h is part of linux-kernel-headers, iirc
[08:20] <Ali_ix> ben__: try #ubuntu-server
[08:20] <zbrown> ben__: pretty sure ubuntu server doesn't install X by default...
[08:20] <fotoflo> zbrown: im willing to try a new driver, but a new window manager is a big hassle right now
[08:20] <zbrown> fotoflo: dunno what to tell you
[08:20] <ben__> zbrown: I installed nedit which picked up the needed packages.
[08:20] <fotoflo> zbrown, it dosnt, i installed server today on another system...
[08:20] <ben__> ali_ix: Thanks, I'll check over there, but seeing as it isn't a "server" question proper, wasn't sure if there was another channel to check.
[08:21] <ramonica> how do i start ssh in ubuntu
[08:21] <kevinh90> ardchoille: i think it should be
[08:21] <comosicus>  does kopete have an option for voice conferences like microshit messenger=
[08:21] <fotoflo> zbrown, well thanks for trying :-)
[08:21] <ben__> ramonia: client or server?
[08:21] <zbrown> fotoflo: ya, its kind of hit and miss with onboard video in my exp.
[08:21] <zbrown> fotoflo: i pretty much stick to ati or nvidia lol
[08:21] <kevinh90> i got the headers, i got the source, but the install still uses the headers folder
[08:21] <Ali_ix> ben_ and if you run x on server, how do you use? via xforwarding? remote desktop?
[08:22] <kevinh90> i renamed the source folder to replace the headers folder, then it complains cause there is no .config
[08:22] <kevinh90> so i copy over the .config, then it says it is invalid
[08:22] <fotoflo> zbrown, cool. if this gets to be a big enough problem, i may go that route (after i try another window manager)
[08:22] <comosicus>  does kopete have an option for voice conferences like microshit messenger=
[08:23] <ardchoille> kevinh90: I believe you can pass a pth to ./configure so that it will look in specific directories, but I forgot how to do that. Isn't there a README or INSTALL file in the sources?
[08:24] <zbrown> fotoflo: my advice is to tryout Xubuntu.
[08:24] <Fizzbane> How do I mount a NTFS hd to the computer place on Ubuntu?

[08:24] <zbrown> i recall ekiga softphone is good for what you want comosicus
[08:25] <comosicus> thanks
[08:25] <zbrown> err wait no
[08:25] <zbrown> nm
[08:25] <zbrown> dont think tahts what you were looking for, my bad lol

[08:25] <bXi> ekiga is a software voip tool
[08:25] <fotoflo> i will later on
[08:26] <kevinh90> i just found something doing more google searching
[08:26] <kevinh90> i will look into it
[08:26] <telos> i have problem:
[08:26] <telos> /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[08:26] <telos> it appears while installing Ubuntu
[08:27] <shinichizio> I have a couple questions. One, how do I compile things?
[08:27] <Cidwele> i have a question, the shutdown process don't work so I want to unmount all the devices before forcing the shutdown, anyone knows how to unmount all the devs including the dev who manages the root filesystem? I can't unmount that because the process says "device in use" :S
[08:28] <imc_> I'm trying to remove debian exim from my startup and forgot completely how todo that?
[08:28] <ardchoille> shinichizio: You start by checking the repos for apps you want. If they aren't there, you can look around for a .deb package made for Ubuntu. If that doesn't help, you can download and compile apps. Most source tarballs will include a README or INSTALL file.. you should read those first.
[08:28] <Answer> Cidwele, if you unmount the partition you won't be able to force shutdown or run any other commands
[08:28] <Fizzbane> How do I mount a NTFS drive to ubuntu?
[08:29] <Answer> Fizzbane, mount -t ntfs /dev/hdXX /media/mountpoint
[08:29] <shinichizio> ardchoille: My system is being lame and crashing whenever I do arbitrary things. Besides, I've already downloaded the stupid tar.gz :p
[08:29] <ardchoille> shinichizio: Which app is it?
[08:29] <shinichizio> ardchoille: Adobe Reader 7.0, I think
[08:29] <imc_>  I need to remove debian exim from my startup - can anyone help please?
[08:29] <seraphire> okay no one replied to my question in ubuntu-server.
[08:29] <imc_> seraphire, what was the question?
[08:29] <seraphire> err this was ben__
[08:30] <seraphire> Hi, I installed ubuntu server and would like to run some X-clients remotely from that machine.  But when I connect to the box with ssh and an X-tunnel setup, it tells me that it cannot open the display.  Any thoughts?
[08:30] <telos> Problem appears while I try to install Ubuntu 7.10:
[08:30] <telos> "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off"
[08:30] <telos> Anyone have a clue how to fix it?
[08:30] <Cidwele> Answer when I mean force shutdown, I mean do anything like, unplug the pc :=)
[08:30] <Cidwele> sorry
[08:30] <Answer> Cidwele, well then the command is "umount"
[08:30] <Answer> seraphire, are you using ssh -X to allow forwarding?
[08:31] <seraphire> I'm actually connecting from a windows box with xming installed and putty.  Putty support X forwarding.
[08:31] <Fizzbane> answer: what do you mean by /mountpoint ?
[08:31] <seraphire> I use it to connect to a FreeBSD box and it works.
[08:31] <Cidwele> yes yes I know, but when I try yo umount /dev/hda1 the program says "Unable to umount, dev in use" or something like that
[08:31] <imc_> Cidwele, it may be that an application is still pointing at that resource you're trying to umount;
[08:31] <tretle> anyone using wengophone 2.0 on feisty?
[08:31] <imc_> find the app and jkill it, then umount
[08:31] <ardchoille> shinichizio: Enable the multiverse repo, then: sudo apt-get install acroread
[08:31] <Answer> Fizzbane, you have to create directory somewhere for the mount point.  I suggest you read the manual "man mount"
[08:31] <imc_> or try umount -f
[08:31] <ardchoille> shinichizio: It's in the repos :)
[08:31] <Cidwele> i tried umount -f flag
[08:31] <Cidwele> :S
[08:31] <GodSyn> help : Is there an application that will auto-config grub to boot into the selected desired OS? IE : sudo reboot-select ubuntu (or sudo reboot-select XP)
[08:31] <tuco> I ma going just crazy now!
[08:32] <yeniklasor> Ubuntu uses unicode encoding system. So can I open files with ascii encoding?
[08:32] <shinichizio> ardchoille: But I already downloaded it. it's 40meg. That's painful to have to re-do on a 56k dial-up connection. ;_;
[08:32] <tuco> Why is there no sound coming out of the speakers for my audigy 2 even though the light is on?
[08:32] <Cidwele> so, how can I search the  program that is trying to use the dev?
[08:32] <GodSyn> it doesn't HAVE to be cli.
[08:32] <Answer> GodSyn, there is a default flag in the grub menu that tells it which entry to boot
[08:32] <JoseBravo> I have a CUPS configured and working in FC4 box. I can use the printer from other computer with windows. But now I want to use it from y laptop (Ubuntu edgy). I tried doing that with System > Administration > Printing. I put the URL of the printer: http://192.168.100.15:631/printers/HP-1020 and put the PPD file. But it never appears in the printer list. Any idea or how can I add this printer?
[08:32] <dguitar4> GodSyn, you can config what OS it picks by default
[08:32] <ardchoille> shinichizio: Your call
[08:33] <seraphire> When I check set there is no DISPLAY set... What sets that?
[08:33] <shinichizio> ardchoille: Not really. What's the problem with just compiling it from the tarball, anyway?
[08:33] <Answer> Cidwele, like I said, you are trying to use the dev!  you can't unmount the root filesystem bc you are running from it
[08:34] <GodSyn> dguitar4: Aye, but I'd like it to be dynamic,  not having to manually edit the file every time I reboot. I know I can select form the menu... but i was just wondering if there was an app to do it so I didn't have to wait around for the menu each time I reboot.
[08:34] <ardchoille> shinichizio: Well, I always install from the repos first, it ensures the stability of your syste. You can compile it I suppose, but you will have to do updates manually, this may mean downloading large tarballs and re-compiling in the future.
[08:34] <dguitar4> GodSyn not that i know of
[08:34] <GodSyn> kk
[08:34] <Cidwele> Answer so... what can I do? if I try to use a program (umount) that is inside in that filesystem... how can I umount ?
[08:35] <ardchoille> shinichizio: You will also have to do deps resolving manually if you compile
[08:35] <yeniklasor> Ubuntu uses unicode encoding system. So can I open files with ascii encoding :D
[08:35] <shinichizio> ardchoille: Aaah. Well, stability is something I'm lacking in obscene amounts. ;_; So I'll just apt-get it. Thanks for the explanation
[08:35] <preaction> yeniklasor: ASCII is implemented as a part of Unicode, so yes. you should have no problem opening ASCII files. what is more important is if the ASCII file uses the 8th bit for anything... interesting...
[08:35] <Slart> Cidwele: you trying to unmount your root drive? why?
[08:35] <Answer> Cidwele, umm just turn it off who cares - it's already hosed
[08:35] <ardchoille> shinichizio: You're welcome :)
[08:35] <mjr> yeniklasor, yes; more accurately, utf-8 is used by default on ubuntu, and it's backwards compatible with ascii
[08:35] <shinichizio> Stay tuned for questions like 'how do I enabled reps?'
[08:36] <yeniklasor> ASCII files showing with wrong character types (Turkish)
[08:36] <seraphire> Any takers on the X question?
[08:36] <comosicus> what is a nat router for ekiga softphone

[08:36] <demortes> Hey everyone, I'm using Ubuntu 6.10 server edition, and I have GCC spitting out weird characters when describing errors in the program.

[08:37] <tuco> I need to have my audigy 2 card the default one over the intel onboard sound
[08:37] <comosicus> what is a nat router for ekiga softphone
[08:37] <yeniklasor> is there any code like gnome-text-editor -encoding ascii :D
[08:37] <Cidwele> Answer, ok, I have to umount that because I want to save all my files before formatting my primary hard disk and if i don't unmount that drive, i can't access in Windows (for backing up) to that filesystem, using a driver
[08:37] <preaction> yeniklasor: because they were not encoded with ASCII standard, but rather a funny version of ascii that uses the 8th bit for language-specific stuff. these are defined in separate ISO standards, and are usually hard to pin down.
[08:38] <Slart> tuco: I have a audigy2 and an on board sound card.. are you using alsa?
[08:38] <Answer> Cidwele, wow... you got issues.  good luck
[08:38] <dguitar4> GodSyn, cool sounds like that would work for you
[08:38] <micahcowan> seraphire, while PuTTY may support X forwarding, I'm certain it at least would need to be running under an X server...
[08:38] <tuco_> I suppose Slart
[08:38] <tuco_> in Kmix the card shows up
[08:38] <Cidwele> -.-
[08:38] <Slart> tuco_: oh.. using kubuntu?
[08:38] <tuco_> yes
[08:38] <dvheumen> hey everyone, got kind of a strange problem. My Edgy install ran for at least a month without any problems, and all of a sudden it's not accessible anymore via the network, cronjobs stop working, I don't get anything on the screen. But if I (all blind) login, execute sudo reboot and type my password then it *does* reboot. Could anyone help?
[08:39] <micahcowan> seraphim_, DISPLAY will be set when X forwarding succeeds. Note that the server also has to be set up to allow X forwarding (though sshd should be configured to do that by default, I believe).
[08:39] <tuco_> the red light shows up on the card (zs notebook) but no sound whatsoever
[08:39] <seraphire> micahcowan, I have an X-server running on my desktop, xming.  I'm just not getting why it's not setting the display on my ubunutu box so I can forward the client programs.
[08:39] <micahcowan> seraphire, ^^
[08:39] <shoot^> guys, is it possible to place my /home directory on an ntfs partition?
[08:39] <Slart> tuco_: in gnome you can set default soundcard in some menues.. I have no idea if something like that is available in KDE
[08:39] <seraphire> micahcown, where do I check the sshd?
[08:39] <preaction> shoot^: ntfs write is still experimental, so no
[08:39] <seraphire> micahcown, that might be my problem?
[08:39] <demortes> Hey everyone, I'm using Ubuntu 6.10 server edition, and I have GCC spitting out weird characters when describing errors in the program. like warning: unused variable buf
[08:40] <tuco_> is there a command I can use to make the card 2 (audigy 2) the default one? I did this once but forgot how.
[08:40] <shoot^> preaction: been reading up on ntfs-3g, seems reliable from all i've read :)
[08:40] <micahcowan> seraphire, assuming sshd is setup to allow X forwarding, this sounds like more of a PuTTY issue than an Ubuntu one, so I don't know how much we'd be able to help in that case. You can check sshd servings in /etc/sshd_config; look up the meaning of different config options with "man sshd_config"
[08:40] <preaction> shoot^: then use it, ymmv
[08:40] <tuco_> Im losing my hair over this!
[08:40] <shoot^> ymmv?
[08:40] <preaction> !ymmv
[08:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ymmv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:40] <micahcowan> seraphire, 'scuse me, that's /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[08:40] <preaction> your milage may vary
[08:41] <Tomg> tuco_ i ended up just blacklisting the module for my other card
[08:41] <ardchoille> demortes: I could be wrong, but it sounds like the unused variable is due to the file being written in another language.
[08:41] <tuco_> how?
[08:41] <demortes> That's not my problem ard
[08:41] <seraphire> micahcown, Thanks. I'll check that now, I'm using that for my irc so I'll have to drop to check it.  I know that putty does fotward correctly as I use it woth other servers. Thanks for the advice!

[08:42] <ardchoille> demortes: That "funny looking a" may be due to it being written in another language.. like if I write a source file in Russian. You think?
[08:42] <demortes> It has nothing to do with the source
[08:42] <ardchoille> demortes: Ok.
[08:42] <demortes> It's the output of GCC

[08:44] <ryanakca> why do I always get "Not enough random bytes available.  Please do some other work to give the OS a chance to collect more entropy! (Need 281 more bytes)" when generating a gpg key? I'm using the HD! (cat /dev/hda)... and I have python calculating 284 ** 284 ** 284...
[08:45] <rkvirani> But I think its great
[08:45] <rkvirani> performs really well
[08:45] <icicled> update & upgrade
[08:45] <rkvirani> compiz supported under gnome
[08:45] <rkvirani> (you can just turn it on with Fiesty)
[08:45] <rkvirani> and it is reasonably solid laptop
[08:45] <Arcad3> if i wanna manually add an user its ok to use "grub-md5-crypt" for the password?
[08:45] <Arcad3> in /etc/shadow
[08:46] <ardchoille> ryanakca: Move the mouse, press the CTRL and/or SHIFT keys, open a file..
[08:46] <rkvirani> Anyone got any cool screenshots?
[08:46] <rkvirani> Im in the mood for looking at screenshots :D
[08:46] <ardchoille> rkvirani: http://ubuntuforums.org/g/
[08:46] <ryanakca> ardchoille: ah.. well.. I can't really do that since it's a server... but I'm reading the whole hd!
[08:46] <ardchoille> lol
[08:47] <romuloubuntu> I dont know if this is the right channel to ask this, but if it's note please tell me where should I go. The university I work for and study wants to develop it's linux distro, I think ubuntu is a very distro to start at. They where using a distro based on slackware wich is now really broken and not working on almost any machine. They need to choose another distro, I need to convince then...
[08:47] <Selenolupus> gizero: Try googling "sound juicer ubuntu encode mp3" w/o the quotes, good info.
[08:47] <romuloubuntu> ...ubuntu is the best choice if it is. Can you help me with that.
[08:47] <gizero> Selenolupus: Ah, installing gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse did it.
[08:47] <hendrixski> rkvirani, have you checked out the ones on Ubuntu forums???? there's terabites of screenshots on there to keep you occupied for days
[08:47] <Selenolupus> gizero: Really? Nice. :-p
[08:47] <dustin0> Hi everybody
[08:48] <gizero> Selenolupus: Yep, that installed /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstlame.so which I guess is gstreamer 0.10 version of lame libraries.
[08:48] <rkvirani> hendrixski: got a link?
[08:48] <preaction> romuloubuntu: either ubuntu or debian, i would consider. but why produce your own distro when ubuntu works so well already?
[08:48] <demortes> Anyone know why GCC would be spitting out the  ?
[08:49] <hendrixski> rkvirani, www.ubuntuforums.org  ... click on gallery.  There are backgrounds (REALLY awesome backgrounds) screenshots, and  a few other catagories
[08:49] <romuloubuntu> they have this strange idea of building own distro
[08:49] <feistyman> can anyone help me with Linux Firefox?
[08:49] <preaction> demortes: because somewhere in your code or code you're importing there is that character? garbage-in, garbage-out.
[08:49] <romuloubuntu> I don know why, probably because they wanna show the big bosses they have done something
[08:49] <demortes> nope
[08:49] <demortes> I don't have that in my code
[08:49] <gnomefreak> feistyman: what about it?
[08:49] <zeroflag> "After that I updated the initramfs." <-- how do I update initramfs?
[08:49] <romuloubuntu> but creating this distro may be just customizing ubuntu
[08:50] <feistyman> gnomefreak, thank you
[08:50] <gnomefreak> zeroflag: sudo update-initramfs -u
[08:50] <ardchoille> preaction: That's what I was thinking too.
[08:50] <preaction> demortes: then you want to go to a gcc-specific help forum/channel/place. not here
[08:50] <zeroflag> gnomefreak: thanks
[08:50] <Fizzbane> I installed the lastest ntfs-3g thingy and I mounted my hd but i cannot see any of the files on the hard drive. What is the problem with it?
[08:50] <gnomefreak> zeroflag: yw
[08:50] <preaction> ardchoille: i'm thinking pebkac now
[08:50] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, your university wants to build it's own distro?
[08:50] <demortes> Fair enough
[08:50] <feistyman> Gnomefreak, here's the problem. I can't save files or images.
[08:50] <ardchoille> preaction: lol
[08:50] <Selenolupus> If I wanted to upgrade to the Feisty Fawn beta using CLI only do I just change all the 'edgy' tags in /etc/apt/sources.list to 'feisty' ?
[08:50] <demortes> Any suggestions?
[08:50] <preaction> demortes: google
[08:50] <romuloubuntu> is it possible to customize ubuntu installation and artwork? So the system would install adapted for the university
[08:50] <nununtu> hi, any idea how create a shutdown ikon on desktop screen?
[08:50] <gnomefreak> feistyman: from where to where?
[08:50] <eexpress> hi, i want get the clipboard
[08:50] <Selenolupus> romuloubuntu: I'm sure it is. A lot of people have done it.
[08:51] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, could be worst... Cuba is building its own Distro FROM GENTOO... what they don't know is we'll invade them while they're recompiling
[08:51] <the-reallap> ./bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off :: next line (initramfs)
[08:51] <ryanakca> !upgrade | Selenolupus
[08:51] <ubotu> Selenolupus: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:51] <the-reallap> whats that mean
[08:51] <seraphire> Checked my sshd and it has the X11 forwarding set.
[08:51] <eexpress> hi, i want get the clipboard' content. just like xclip can do at selected text. how.
[08:51] <seraphire> Any other suggetions?
[08:51] <feistyman> gnomefreak, like when I want to save an image on the desktop, it goes thru the action, but there's nothing there. Same with pages. This is a new problem for me.
[08:51] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, yes... there's some documentation on how to make your own ubuntu liveCD, and then it'll install... so you can have your own artwork, or your own programs
[08:52] <gnomefreak> feistyman: open edit than prefferences and tell me where its set to save them to
[08:52] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, a few people did some really cool modifications to Ubuntu, check out Ubuntu Christian Edition, or Edubuntu, or Ubuntu Muslim Edition, etc. etc.
[08:52] <rkvirani> hendrixski: they do have some cool ones here!
[08:52] <eexpress> hi, i want get the clipboard' content(within a bash, like ctrl-v can give me). just like xclip can do at selected text. how.
[08:52] <hendrixski> rkvirani, :-) told you ....  enjoy
[08:52] <feistyman> desktop
[08:52] <afd_> hi guys! I've replaced the sound card in my computer and now my keyboard volume buttons have no effect. The volume change popup window appears on the screen and the volume changes, but there's no effect on the sound
[08:52] <preaction> romuloubuntu: kubuntu, xubuntu, there's even a satanic ubuntu
[08:52] <afd_> what do I have to do?
[08:52] <feistyman> But then there's nothing there.
[08:53] <gnomefreak> feistyman: change it to home than see if it downloads what you are trying to get to  your home dir please
[08:53] <romuloubuntu> thanks a lot
[08:53] <romuloubuntu> I will use those as examples
[08:53] <roadfish> is there a way to ask apt-get to just dump the URLs of the files being downloaded? ideally with the sizes
[08:54] <gnomefreak> feistyman: what version of firefox on what version of ubuntu?
[08:54] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, oh I got a better one!!!!!!!
[08:54] <romuloubuntu> what's worse about it, there is some people here defending gentoo adoption. I work with machines (fixing then) and I really think reinstalling gentoo is not something people here would like to do, even if it's not on an everyday basis.
[08:54] <Selenolupus> ryanakca: It's unclear, how do I get a package from 'edgy-proposed' ?
[08:54] <preaction> romuloubuntu: if they need more proof, there's canonical ltd., which iirc does programs with educational institutions
[08:54] <feistyman> Gnomefreak, I'm trying..
[08:54] <the-reallap> ./bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off :: next line (initramfs) ...... what doeas that mean
[08:54] <eXistenZ> gnomefreak: Do you use KDE?
[08:54] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, Google uses a modified version of Ubuntu... they call it Goobuntu or something...it's only internal, but every once in a while people speculate that they may release it... in which case it may be capable of competing with Microsoft
[08:54] <feistyman> I'm using the latest 2.0.0.3
[08:55] <gnomefreak> eXistenZ: sometimes
[08:55] <gnomefreak> feistyman: on edgy or feisty?
[08:55] <preaction> romuloubuntu: gentoo is for ricers, and is definitely a bad idea (tm) if you want something easy to manage for a large site deployment
[08:55] <feistyman> feisty
[08:55] <eXistenZ> When final will be out?
[08:55] <bruenig> wow he trade marked bad idea
[08:55] <gnomefreak> was it working before the upgrade to 2.0.0.3?
[08:55] <gnomefreak> feistyman: and your in the wrong channel
[08:55] <romuloubuntu> I know gentoo is a really bad idea, but i dont know if i can convince them
[08:55] <Ghaldez> hello
[08:55] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, Gentoo is a great distro for personal use... I can't see why anyone would use it in an office setting.
[08:56] <Ghaldez> anybody from germany here?
[08:56] <feistyman> Yes, I beleive so. It's only been like this since yesterday
[08:56] <eexpress> hi, i want get the clipboard' content(within a bash, like ctrl-v can give me). just like xclip can do at selected text. how.
[08:56] <Selenolupus> Can someone assist here? The help page is unclear. I wish to upgrade to Feisty Fawn from 6.10 Server Edition, but the page is unclear, it tells me to get update-manager-core from edgy-proposed - but how is this done?
[08:56] <preaction> romuloubuntu: meh. if they don't understand the difference between source v. binary distros, then they deserve the headache they'll get
[08:56] <ryanakca> Selenolupus: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgradesManual
[08:56] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, I convinced a friend to switch to Ubuntu from Gentoo when I showed him apt-get.... it takes half a minute to install a program in Ubuntu and a half hour to compile it in Gentoo... the performance difference is negligable
[08:56] <gnomefreak> feistyman: did it work as you wanted when you changed it to home dir?
[08:56] <ardchoille> eexpress: CTRL+SHIFT+v
[08:56] <the-reallap> ./bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off :: next line (initramfs) ...... what doeas that mean
[08:56] <romuloubuntu> yeah, they do deserve it, but I want the best for the institution
[08:56] <ak4t5uk1> hi
[08:56] <feistyman> Gnomefreak, No, I couldn't change it to home. It change to home/manton
[08:56] <romuloubuntu> and I believe it is ubuntu
[08:57] <eexpress> ardchoille: no. i just want a CLI to do it, within bash.
[08:57] <gnomefreak> feistyman: thats home
[08:57] <feistyman> ok
[08:57] <gnomefreak> does it save them there?
[08:57] <feistyman> it didn't do anything different
[08:57] <feistyman> How do I clean out the cache file?
[08:57] <gnomefreak> feistyman: please join me in #ubuntu-mozillateam please
[08:57] <ardchoille> eexpress: CTRL+SHIFT+v will paste into the terminal and CTRL_SHIFT+c will copy from terminal. Or you can Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts and change them.
[08:57] <preaction> romuloubuntu: ask them if they want to compile the same program on every machine that runs the OS, or if they want to develop the binary distribution system that the machine they use to compile will run. if they want an easily deployable OS from gentoo, it will require some development
[08:58] <JoseBravo> Im running this command like the guide says: sudo aptitude install acroread mozilla-acroread acroread-plugins, but the aptitude don't found anything.
[08:58] <ak4t5uk1> currently i'm using edgy... would it be fine to shift to feisty now?
[08:58] <ak4t5uk1> or should I wait for another version?
[08:58] <bruenig> JoseBravo, to add all the extra official repositories and install acroread, 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:
[08:58] <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 acroread
[08:58] <ardchoille> JoseBravo: Enable the multiverse repo and try again
[08:58] <romuloubuntu> worse than that, they want to make somekind of weird iso o gentoo, and hack it to boot
[08:58] <Selenolupus> ryanakca: ty
[08:59] <bruenig> JoseBravo, and sudo apt-get install mozilla-acroread acroread-plugins after that command
[08:59] <dvheumen> anyone???
[08:59] <preaction> romuloubuntu: does "they" mean the devs? or the suits?
[08:59] <ardchoille> bruenig: Nice! You should post that somewhere for everyone to use.
[08:59] <eexpress> ooooo. perhaps some mistaken here. ardchoille. i want some commnad to fetch the clipboard' contents. not key press.
[08:59] <smo_> hi
[08:59] <DustWolf> hi
[08:59] <romuloubuntu> this just can't work well, but they don't have a clue about it. And whats  worse, the guy thats pro gentoo have some  credit with then.
[08:59] <smo_> wich file can i grep to know the ubuntu version running from bach script with bash?
[08:59] <micahcowan> seraphire, any luck?
[09:00] <romuloubuntu> the suits
[09:00] <ardchoille> eexpress: Ah, now I understand what you want.. your description of the problem made me think of something different. Sorry.
[09:00] <ak4t5uk1> anyone?
[09:00] <bruenig> smo_, are you looking for a number or a name (like edgy"
[09:00] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, It's hard to explain technical things to suits
[09:00] <preaction> romuloubuntu: google for "ubuntu success stories"
[09:00] <RickJones> how does one start the Gphoto2 suite ?
[09:00] <Zigurd> Is there a way to install 6.10 without running the partitioner?
[09:01] <ak4t5uk1> Anyone having problem with feisty?
[09:01] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, have the gentoo guy install a program in front of them... then install that same program with synaptic
[09:01] <demortes> After googling for this answer, I can even seem to find a gcc channel that seems to support GCC troubleshooting... I know it's a simple answer, and someone must have ran into it before. GCC is giving me errors with the letter  in it. It doesn't deal with the source code... I'm using putty to connect to the server, not a monitor. Anyone got a way to remove the funky letter?
[09:01] <smo_> a name bruening
[09:01] <ardchoille> hendrixski: Nice idea :)
[09:01] <smo_> jsut the file where it s written i know for the rest
[09:01] <smo_> just the name excuses me
[09:01] <hendrixski> ardchoille, lol yeah,.,, the difference in install time is really amazing, isn't it
[09:01] <smo_> need to retunr me dapper or edgy or feisty
[09:02] <bruenig> smo, lsb_release -a 2> /dev/null | grep Codename | awk '{print $2}
[09:02] <bruenig> smo, lsb_release -a 2> /dev/null | grep Codename | awk '{print $2}' (forgot the last ')
[09:02] <smo_> thx a lot bruenig
[09:02] <smo_> ok
[09:02] <ardchoille> smo_: cat /etc/lsb-release
[09:02] <smo_> i try wait
[09:02] <JoseBravo> bruenig, I did that and not found. May be because im on AMD64?
[09:02] <ak4t5uk1> does anyone here havin' problem with feisty?
[09:02] <bruenig> JoseBravo, yeah it is probably because of that
[09:02] <smo_> ah yeah lsb-release...
[09:02] <smo_> forgot it...

[09:03] <JoseBravo> bruenig, Something to do?
[09:03] <bruenig> JoseBravo, install 32 bit
[09:03] <judgen> what package includes the libGL.so.1
[09:03] <Bittersweet> Ghaldez: Ja, aber nicht su gut.
[09:04] <JoseBravo> bruenig, how can I force to install 32 bit?
[09:04] <Selenolupus> What's the fastest N.A. Ubuntu repository server? I always get rather slow DLs compared to when I DL .iso files and such. I realize most of that is hosted by Unis... but it's 3x faster!
[09:04] <Ghaldez> bittersweet ok hmm can you help me with beryl?
[09:04] <Hirn> hi
[09:04] <judgen> what package includes the libGL.so.1
[09:04] <Ghaldez> i use ubuntu 6.10 edge efty ^^
[09:04] <judgen> !libgl
[09:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libgl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:04] <Bittersweet> er... I can try!
[09:04] <romuloubuntu> thanks a lot people
[09:04] <bruenig> smo, if you wanted to use /etc/lsb-release, this should work, cat /etc/lsb-release | awk -F= '/CODENAME/ {print $2}'
[09:04] <RickJones> !libgphoto2
[09:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libgphoto2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:04] <hendrixski> how do I remove the democracy player 9.5 database when I re-installed democracy player 9.2??
[09:05] <bruenig> JoseBravo, no I mean install 32 bit ubuntu
[09:05] <ardchoille> judgen: dpkg -S libGL.so.1
[09:05] <seraphire> I'm sorry if anyone posted a reply, I got pulled away and am using irssi so I don't know how to scroll back up.
[09:05] <JoseBravo> bruenig, ohhh
[09:05] <hendrixski> I did apt-get remove --purge democracyplayer but the newly installed one is still picking up traces of the other one
[09:05] <ardchoille> seraphire: pgup and pgdwn
[09:05] <hendrixski> romuloubuntu, good luck
[09:05] <seraphire> oh, heh. thanks.
[09:05] <aev> hi lads, a question, is there an app which can graphically show me the packages i have installed, where they live what they do, and how they depend or are depended on? (like this depends on that etc.)
[09:05] <Ghaldez> Bittersweet,  ok my problem is i installed beryl like that http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Edgy_with_XGL_and_ATI and now it should make a "cube" when i press CTRL+ALT and moveing my mouse but theres nothing
[09:05] <seraphire> micahcowan, no.
[09:06] <bruenig> hendrixski, is there something in the home directory called .democracy or something like that
[09:06] <preaction> aev: synaptic package manager?
[09:06] <Bittersweet> Ghaldez: Ok...
[09:06] <seraphire> micahcowan, X11 is set, and I just checked and I am able to successfully open an X application from a FreeBSD machine with putty
[09:06] <demortes> Ghaldez, Cntrl+Alt+tab, you can let go of tab, but keep cntrl and alt down
[09:06] <eexpress> so , another topic. if anyone know "xclip"
[09:06] <micahcowan> seraphire, did you check the PuTTY event log, as mentioned at http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/0.54/htmldoc/Chapter3.html#3.4 ?
[09:06] <Ghaldez> demortes what do you mean?
[09:07] <demortes> Hold down control and alt, tap Tab
[09:07] <hendrixski> bruenig, ah yes there is
[09:07] <aev> preaction: ill take that as a no :) , id like to be able to see what depends on a package that i have. Like i have this and that, but why. This is mostly because i wonder how much dead wood i have left/
[09:07] <seraphire> micahcowen, No, but I'll do that now too. Thank you.
[09:07] <demortes> should force it into Cube
[09:07] <demortes> Then move your mouse
[09:07] <bruenig> hendrixski, you need to delete that
[09:07] <bruenig> hendrixski, then restart democracy
[09:07] <ak4t5uk1> hmmmm... i think i should use edgy for now...
[09:07] <the-reallap> ./bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off :: next line (initramfs) ...... what doeas that mean
[09:07] <micahcowan> seraphire, also, what did you mean when you said that you had to shut down IRC to check your server config?
[09:07] <kane77> what does the ubuntu2 mean in package name (the number)?
[09:07] <ak4t5uk1> yeah the ubuntu2
[09:08] <bruenig> kane77, it stands for the ubuntu revision
[09:08] <hendrixski> bruenig, does that happen with many applications?  where there's a hidden .file ??
[09:08] <ak4t5uk1> how bout.... dummy package?
[09:08] <preaction> aev: have you tried using synaptic package manager to do this? you can also automatically clean the packages that aren't being depended on by installing auto-remove iirc
[09:08] <The_Mimic> Excuse me, does anybody have a second for an (I imagine) easy question?
[09:08] <bruenig> hendrixski, yeah, just check the home directory and take a look, there are a lot of them
[09:08] <seraphire> micahcowan, I'm using irssi because for whatever reason I couldn't connect to freenode from my windows box, so I'm using irssi on the box I'm working on.
[09:08] <sebas_> The_Mimic, just ask
[09:08] <aev> preaction: i am trying, i asked to soon.
[09:08] <bruenig> aev, a simple script could be constructed to do that using dpkg, but I don't know of any graphical app that does it
[09:08] <Bittersweet> handrixski: just press Cnrtl+H in your home DIR and you will see loads of hidden files (mainly config files)
[09:09] <mwe> the-reallap: maybe it expects bash and not dash that /bin/sh links to
[09:09] <hendrixski> bruenig, :-( it gives an "unknown error" after I did that
[09:09] <demortes> After googling for this answer, I can even seem to find a gcc channel that seems to support GCC troubleshooting... I know it's a simple answer, and someone must have ran into it before. GCC is giving me errors with the letter  in it. It doesn't deal with the source code... I'm using putty to connect to the server, not a monitor. Anyone got a way to remove the funky letter?

[09:09] <ubotu> demortes: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[09:09] <bruenig> hendrixski, shouldn't
[09:09] <judgen> gaah ill just reinstall the whole damn thing
[09:09] <the-reallap> that pops up on screen
[09:09] <the-reallap> im not typing that
[09:09] <tecta> when will feisty be released
[09:09] <micahcowan> seraphire, FYI, you can suspend most command-line applications via Ctrl-Z, instead of quitting. Then you can usually type "fg" to get it back.
[09:09] <The_Mimic> Thanks! When I use the synaptic package manager to install something,
[09:09] <smo_> echo lsb_release -a 2> /dev/null | grep Codename | awk '{print $2}'
[09:09] <mwe> the-reallap: when?
[09:09] <The_Mimic> Where can I find the actual files? For instance, configuration files for SlashEM.
[09:09] <demortes> How fast is "quickly"?
[09:09] <smo_> not working bruenig
[09:09] <smo_> return nothing
[09:10] <ak4t5uk1> when would the linux community able to unified the libraries?
[09:10] <preaction> demortes: your problem is a highly technical problem and will probably require you to find places where more technically-able people congregate, and that's usually mailing lists and web forums
[09:10] <micahcowan> seraphire, you might also want to look into using the "screen" command, which allows you to use multiple tty's from one session. It's /very/ handy.
[09:10] <the-reallap> abouuut 20 seconds fter i hit install
[09:10] <bruenig> smo, no, not echo, just lsb_release -a, or like I said up above you can do: cat /etc/lsb-release | awk -F= '/CODENAME/ {print $2}'
[09:10] <hendrixski> bruenig, it did... I even removed and reinstalled it
[09:10] <ak4t5uk1> so everytime we install applications no need for other dependencies...
[09:10] <seraphire> micahcown, Thanks. I did grab "screen" and am using it now.
[09:10] <aev> bruenig: that would be neat, the big abstraction sometimes make me feel out of touch with what i have installed. Then again im a linux noob
[09:10] <bruenig> hendrixski, well democracy is crap, doesn't surprise me
[09:10] <fotoflo> hmm
[09:10] <hendrixski> bruenig, are there other types of files that programs usually leave behind that remove doesn't catch?
[09:10] <demortes> preaction: However, google doesn't reveal anything of the sort to me. I searched GCC IRC Channel, it only gives me a channel for GCC development, not troubleshooting.
[09:10] <seraphire> micahcowen, I did note this in that webpage: Note that if your PC X server requires authentication to connect, then PuTTY cannot currently support it. If this is a problem for you, you should mail the PuTTY authors and give details.
[09:11] <fotoflo> i have a system without a keyboard and mouse and im only using ssh to operate it
[09:11] <smo_> cat /etc/lsb-release | awk -F= '/CODENAME/ {print $2}'
[09:11] <smo_> good :)
[09:11] <bruenig> aev, well worrying about dead wood as you say is probably unfounded, dependencies are uninstalled when they are no longer needed
[09:11] <fotoflo> is there a way to shut it down?
[09:11] <hendrixski> bruenig, lol, yeah, the 9.5 one kept crashing .... what would you recommend instead?
[09:11] <tony_ubuntu_newb> I cant write files to a CD. Any ideas? Thanks.
[09:11] <ak4t5uk1> so everytime I download from the repos I can install it in to other machines.. without having problem with other dependencies...
[09:11] <seraphire> micahcowen, Oh, no wait, that would be the other way.  the server being my windows box...
[09:11] <bruenig> hendrixski, what do you use it for?
[09:11] <preaction> demortes: and then i suggested "mailing lists and web forums". perhaps look for the GCC official website?
[09:11] <micahcowan> seraphire, if you have tab-completion available for nicknames, please use that in preference to typing my name out: if you mistype it, I'll only see it by luck.
[09:11] <ak4t5uk1> tony_ubuntu_newb try k3b
[09:11] <fotoflo> fotoflo@server:~$ sudo reboot now  (((())))   sudo: unable to execute /sbin/reboot: Input/output error
[09:12] <ak4t5uk1> tony_ubuntu_newb or gnomebaker
[09:12] <micahcowan> seraphire, yes, the X server runs on your windows box... and that should've been just as much a problem when forwarding to your BSD box, so that's probably not it.
[09:12] <aev> bruenig: perhaps i need to learn to trust on that happening. It does leave a bunch of config files in /home/ Can one prune those as well? (ive been doing a lot of apt-get this&that)
[09:12] <hendrixski> bruenig, for watching internet videos, searching youtube, podcasts, without having to go through hundreds of websites and ads etc.
[09:12] <Selenolupus> Does anyone know precisely what the package crosshurd does?
[09:12] <seraphire> micahcowan, I'll have to do more reading on irssi to see how to turn on tab completion for this window.
[09:12] <tony_ubuntu_newb> ak4t5uk1, I have gnomebaker. It errors with data or music.
[09:12] <Rictoo> `'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'~
[09:12] <seraphire> micahcowan, for now, I'll copy and paste
[09:12] <Rictoo> is a caterpillar
[09:13] <tony_ubuntu_newb> ak4t5uk1, Serpentine errors too.
[09:13] <ak4t5uk1> i have no idea.... unless you tried googling on the errors
[09:13] <micahcowan> seraphire, when you look at the PuTTY event log, what does it say about attempting and failing or succeeding at X11 forwarding?
[09:13] <Beta> Hey guys, some how I removed the little icon that lets you log off and such. How do I get it back?
[09:14] <aev> Beta: Right-click -> add to panel?
[09:14] <Ghaldez> Beta,  press rightmousbutton and add to panel than search the button ;)
[09:14] <bruenig> hendrixski, I don't know, I just use firefox
[09:14] <Ghaldez> or system-> shut down.. :)
[09:15] <lucasvo> I had to delete /var/cache/apt to make some space. and accidentally broke my apt system
[09:15] <roadfish> how does apt determine the location of the package to download?
[09:15] <Beta> Ok, got that. but how do I get it to be back behind the time and date.
[09:15] <rysiek|pl> guys, anybody knows how to make a network switch out of a two-net-adapter box running linux?
[09:15] <lucasvo> can I somehow tell it to create the directories ?
[09:15] <lucasvo> lucasvo@hades:~$ sudo apt-get update
[09:15] <lucasvo> E: Archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing.
[09:15] <hendrixski> bruenig, k thanks I'll keep tinkering with tuff here
[09:15] <Ghaldez> beta rhold left mouse button and move it there
[09:15] <aev> Beta, then right-click again and chooose move :)
[09:15] <maikol> lucasvo: that was silly of you
[09:15] <hendrixski> roadfish, you mean the /etc/apt/sources.list file?
[09:15] <Beta> I think I added it to the wrong panel.
[09:16] <preaction> !iptables | rysiek|pl
[09:16] <ubotu> rysiek|pl: 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).
[09:16] <smo_> bruenig once i have the dist returned how can i go thru case then ???  ex : case $dist == "edgy" ...... ;; etc thats  it ?
[09:16] <ak4t5uk1> tony_ubuntu_newb if you want to burn audio you need a2mp3
[09:16] <maikol> lucasvo: use mkdir to create directories
[09:16] <mage> anyone know off the top if thier heads the best way to get a speedcheck on a hard drive?
[09:16] <maikol> lucasvo: you will need root priveleges to make it in /var
[09:16] <JeremyStCyr> Hello
[09:16] <hendrixski> lucasvo, you can make directories with the mkdir command
[09:16] <Ghaldez> hi
[09:17] <psycho78> whenever feisty come out will I be able to easily upgrade from edgy?
[09:17] <hendrixski> !hello JeremyStCyr
[09:17] <rysiek|pl> preaction: m'kay, reading through it, thanks
[09:17] <preaction> rysiek|pl: the links at the bottom will be of far more help to you
[09:17] <JeremyStCyr> i am trying to figure out where i need to go for the boost for ssh anyone have any idea what support channel i need, or am i in the right place, i am lost lol
[09:17] <Beta> How do I add things to the notification area?
[09:17] <rysiek|pl> preaction: yeah, I suppose; basic iptables I know ;)
[09:17] <bruenig> smo, case looks like this, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14758/
[09:18] <roadfish> hendrixski: yes, how does it use /etc/apt/sources.list to pick the actual file to download over the internet?
[09:18] <preaction> Beta: usually programs add things there for you. you can add things to your panel next to the notification area if you want
[09:18] <ak4t5uk1> the biggest challenge on the linux now is how to make the libraries unified
[09:18] <micahcowan> hendrixski, it uses /etc/apt/sources.list to download information to /var/lib/dpkg/available, which it uses to pick the actual file to download over the internet. :)
[09:19] <micahcowan> roadfish, ^ (sorry hendrixski)
[09:19] <hendrixski> micahcowan, thanks lol
[09:20] <hendrixski> roadfish, what micahcowan said... when he sent it to me :-)
[09:20] <nakedlefty[newb] > hey all again
[09:21] <Andy8372> any one know how to correctly install a cannon i350 printer (shared on another PC)
[09:21] <nakedlefty[newb] > have been reading a little about Beryl and know that it's a fork of Compiz and that the two are about to merge again
[09:21] <ak4t5uk1> ubuntu has still problems adding a scanner
[09:21] <FunnyLookinHat> Andy8372, if it is shared from the other PC you should just browse to it via the network browser thingy and then go from there
[09:22] <FunnyLookinHat> nakedlefty[newb] , yup, that's true.
[09:22] <nakedlefty[newb] > now, does any of you have experience with Beryl or Compiz on Ubuntu with a Radeon x1950 gfx card?
[09:22] <selfsearcher> ak4t5uk1: i agree. You have to download the "drivers" then configure sane
[09:22] <FunnyLookinHat> nakedlefty[newb] , I wouldn't bother trying it.
[09:22] <nakedlefty[newb] > FunnyLookinHat:  not worth the hassel?
[09:22] <toxyouxunknown> hey guys, i have a real weird problem that i was wondering if you could help with.
[09:22] <FunnyLookinHat> nakedlefty[newb] , nope...   the newer ATI cards will lose too much performance to use the open source driver that is beryl compatible...  or you could use AIGLX and that's ugly
[09:23] <hendrixski> !ask | toxyouxunknown
[09:23] <ubotu> toxyouxunknown: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:23] <nakedlefty[newb] > FunnyLookinHat: okay, guess I'll just have to tough it out a bit and wait for some better drivers and or better compatibility with ATI cards
[09:23] <FunnyLookinHat> Yea, that's the best choice.
[09:23] <Panzer_> I have a pogram that I want to fork.  I have been using something like ./fold1.exe &   the program runs like I want it to til I exit the ssh connection.  What can I do so that the program forks and I can still keep running the program after I disconnect the ssh connection
[09:24] <nakedlefty[newb] > thanks!
[09:24] <preaction> Panzer_: man nohup && echo "Thanks"
[09:24] <roadfish> micahcowan: thanks. this help me see the sequence a bit better. but I don't quite see how the actual "http://something/pacakge-name" gets synthesized.
[09:24] <velko> Panzer_, or use screen
[09:24] <toxyouxunknown> oh sure. well i got a 6.10 dvd from amazon instead of doing the download. but anyway, i have a dell xps. and when i boot the computer with the dvd in the drive, it just runs windows
[09:24] <velko> Panzer_, very cool program
[09:25] <lucasvo> maikol: thanks, that worked
[09:25] <toxyouxunknown> i changed in the bios to have it boot from the drive first and everything. but it seems like there's nothing on the dvd.
[09:25] <Selenolupus> toxyouxunknown: Is your laptop set to boot from HDD before CD?
[09:25] <toxyouxunknown> no
[09:25] <Selenolupus> Ah.
[09:25] <toxyouxunknown> i changed it
[09:25] <Panzer_> well I checked on screen.  I might check again.  Did not like how it was working.  But maybe the && stuff might work
[09:25] <Selenolupus> toxyouxunknown: Have you tried using a different disc?
[09:25] <ak4t5uk1> mybe dvd is not bootable....
[09:25] <toxyouxunknown> yeah. amazon replaced the first one.
[09:25] <ak4t5uk1> unless you set dvd first above all
[09:26] <toxyouxunknown> the dvd/cd drive is set to boot first.
[09:26] <psycho78> toxyouxunkown: sometimes on Dell's you have to enter the boot menu "f12 or f12, it depends" then choose your dvd to boot from
[09:26] <toxyouxunknown> i've entered the boot menu
[09:26] <toxyouxunknown> and selected boot from cd
[09:26] <toxyouxunknown> as well
[09:26] <toxyouxunknown> it just boots windows
[09:26] <ak4t5uk1> maybe they made something on the dell so it only boots windows ....
[09:27] <ak4t5uk1> :D
[09:27] <toxyouxunknown> yeah, i thought that. but other people on the internet have loaded it onto their xps
[09:27] <Ghaldez> damn windows -.- xD
[09:28] <psycho78> my only guess is to take the dvd to another PC and see if it boots up. If so then it's the dell's settings if not the dvd isn't bootable
[09:28] <micahcowan> roadfish, I'm not 100% on how it all works, but I'm learning. I /believe/ that what happens is it tacks on the "Filename:" records you can see in /var/lib/dpkg/available, to what you have as the repository... but there may be a closer mapping than that.
[09:28] <flyte> !email
[09:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about email - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[09:29] <LjL> !botabuse
[09:29] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[09:29] <micahcowan> flyte, postfix is a good bet.
[09:29] <Ghaldez> !html
[09:29] <ubotu> html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build webpages. Editors in Ubuntu: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem, and Nvu. For howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com
[09:29] <[Away] Yahooadam> howcome if i double click the "network connection" icon, it says "no network devices found" ? (even though using ifup i can get eth0 or eth1 working)
[09:29] <Ghaldez> oh anything it knows xD
[09:29] <kane77> LjL, sry
[09:29] <flyte> micahcowan, postfix? not qmail or sendmail?
[09:29] <SheaTara> flyte: Do you want to send mail or have your own mailbox?
[09:29] <toxyouxunknown> is there anyway to check that the dvd has something on it when i'm in windows?
[09:29] <SheaTara> flyte: they are differenjt programs..
[09:29] <Khoix> renick
[09:30] <flyte> SheaTara, I would  like to have my own mailbox associated with my domain
[09:30] <SheaTara> flyte: Then you want both probably
[09:30] <micahcowan> flyte, those are also possibilities. However, sendmail is notoriously difficult to configure. qmail is not Free, so perhaps won't have the same support from the community.
[09:30] <SheaTara> flyte: I use exim4 and courier
[09:30] <rNIUS> hello! :D
[09:30] <psycho78> toxyouxunknon: I've never used the dvd but i'm sure it works the same as the CD it's just bigger. When i put the CD in my windows xp machine it autoruns.
[09:30] <toxyouxunknown> hmmmm. see when i put the dvd in on windows and it doesn't even detect it in the drive.
[09:31] <SheaTara> flyte: do you want to download your messages to your mail client and then read them or do you want them to stay on the server most of the time (different protocols)
[09:31] <ak4t5uk1> not unless you don't have dvd reader...
[09:31] <psycho78> toxy: i can brows files or install windows apps
[09:31] <roadfish> micahcowan: ok, I was thinking of some connection between sources.list and the /var/lib/dpkg/available ... but the part that I don't get is how apt-get matches up the repository URL with the package-description in "available".
[09:31] <wikiki> Hello
[09:31] <selfsearcher> hi
[09:31] <toxyouxunknown> yeah, see, this is the second cd i've gotten that it doesn't detect it and i can'
[09:31] <toxyouxunknown> can't see any files on it
[09:31] <wikiki> How is the ubuntu server installation? someone have installed one ?
[09:32] <flyte> SheaTara, hrm, I would like the messages to be download to a client (mail gets stored on the ubuntu web server) and then download to client on windows.
[09:32] <micahcowan> roadfish, the package-description has most of the URL in it. For instance, on my system, it'll tack the value of Filename onto http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu.
[09:32] <toxyouxunknown> alright, one sec, i'm going to go try the disc on my roommates computer
[09:32] <ak4t5uk1> toxyouxunknown, I hope it's not a blank media
[09:32] <ak4t5uk1> or damaged media
[09:32] <toxyouxunknown> ak4...me too! but this is the second one!
[09:32] <toxyouxunknown> the first one was the same!
[09:32] <DarkLegacy> Hey guys
[09:32] <selfsearcher> toxyouxunknown: take a look at your /etc/fstab
[09:32] <SheaTara> flyte: I recommend this for most use: Exim4 and Courier-Pop
[09:32] <DarkLegacy> How can I get Wubi to work on a SATA RAID?
[09:33] <SheaTara> flyte: I think courier has courier-imap, but I have never used it
[09:33] <flyte> SheaTara, thanks for the recommendation. I will investigate these two further. Any guides on them?

[09:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about exim4 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:33] <micahcowan> flyte, postfix+dovecot is also a very popular combination.

[09:33] <ubotu> AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/jv6tc for more information.
[09:33] <psycho78> Did f-spot get updated recently? I used to get an error every time I would try and crop images, then all of the sudden it began working today. It's great that it works now, but I was just curious why it didn't work before.
[09:33] <selfsearcher> lol ... ahem
[09:34] <wikiki> Someone have installed ubuntu server?
[09:34] <flyte> SheaTara, micahcowan , which combo is the easiest to install?
[09:34] <SheaTara> wikiki: yes
[09:34] <toxyouxunknown> a dell xps T2500 dual core processors is the 32-bit one right?/
[09:34] <SheaTara> SheaTara: I used Exim, and I found it quite challenging.
[09:34] <flyte> oops
[09:34] <SheaTara> oops
[09:34] <micahcowan> flyte, postfix and dovecot were fairly easy for me; but I haven't experience with exim or courier, so I can't compare.
[09:34] <SheaTara> flyte: I used Exim, and I found it quite challenging.
[09:34] <master_> ola
[09:34] <flyte> micahcowan, ok.
[09:34] <Demortes> What did you need?
[09:35] <Demortes> mur
[09:35] <selfsearcher> ciao master
[09:35] <nn-other> what did i set on my irc that would cause this web client to not like my irc but be fine on freenode
[09:35] <SheaTara> flyte: the courier part was not that hard though. If you want to use a database for authentication, you will want to know sql

[09:38] <[uplink] > hello.....
[09:38] <[uplink] > I need some technical help with ubuntu
[09:38] <SheaTara> ribatejo: ndiswrapper does not have much to do with printing. Printing is a higher-level protocol, meaning that if the network works at all, printing should work entirely

[09:42] <[uplink] > I want to instal unbuntu on a VM
[09:42] <newbuns> im using ubuntu now
[09:42] <[uplink] > ;] 
[09:42] <aubade> wikiki: Not sure, no experience in wireless adapters though it should be involves. Chances are if your adapter isn't working it's more of a driver issue.
[09:42] <newbuns> just installed
[09:42] <aubade> Should be involved, even.
[09:42] <ak4t5uk1> yeah try virtual box it is fast
[09:42] <selfsearcher> newbuns: great !
[09:42] <[uplink] > virtual box sucks
[09:42] <newbuns> took a while to get v3d rendering to work though : (~

[09:43] <ak4t5uk1> try vm ware
[09:43] <ak4t5uk1> but I like it
[09:43] <newbuns> program called ENVY solved all my worries
[09:43] <ak4t5uk1> it has usb support
[09:43] <aubade> wikiki: Server install should include DHCP...
[09:43] <ribatejo> chili5555_: I  am still googling...I found something but uncompleted ....t
[09:43] <[uplink] > well, Virtual Box is ok
[09:43] <[uplink] > doesnt take that much RAM as VMware
[09:43] <ak4t5uk1> and it is free
[09:43] <roadfish> micahcowan: thanks ... and I think that /var/lib/apt/lists/ is searched ... that's probably how package/repository correspondance is figured out
[09:43] <[uplink] > ;] 
[09:43] <ak4t5uk1> it has manager
[09:43] <ak4t5uk1> vmware just a player
[09:43] <[uplink] > Im using VirtualBox right now
[09:44] <[uplink] > and I want to install Ubuntu
[09:44] <[uplink] > any one that can help me ?
[09:44] <telos> Hey, I want to know how should partitions looks like if i want to install ubuntu. Anyone know?
[09:44] <ak4t5uk1> i tried installed one
[09:44] <ak4t5uk1> it works great
[09:44] <c1|freaky> is it possible to put variables in the /etc/motd file?
[09:44] <velko> telos, you're asking for a flame ware ;-)
[09:44] <spasticteapot> Any chance that eaglePCB will be added to the repository?
[09:44] <newbuns> i have a few documentaries on my windows partition from google video, they play in totem but the coulers are all weird
[09:44] <velko> telos, war*
[09:44] <spasticteapot> It's really terrific software.
[09:45] <telos> velko >< I'm just newbie :s
[09:45] <[uplink] > LadyNikon, please help me
[09:45] <[uplink] > ;(
[09:45] <selfsearcher> telos: use Paragon Partiton Manager to see / resize them. Or use GParted Live
[09:45] <psycho78> telos: there's lots of different ways to set up your partitions. It just depends. Mine is very simple. I have 3 partitions (2 for OS, 1 for swap)
[09:45] <spasticteapot> [uplink] : What's the problem?
[09:45] <velko> telos, ok. then you can go with one partition for /, one for /home and one for swap
[09:45] <ak4t5uk1> yeah don't forget swap
[09:45] <[uplink] > Im using VirtualBox right now
[09:45] <[uplink] > and I want to install Ubuntu
[09:45] <telos> Ok i just formatted my HDD, and now i want to know what partitions i need
[09:45] <[uplink] > I dunno how
[09:46] <micahcowan> c1|freaky, no... if you need customized login greetings, motd is insufficient.
[09:46] <[uplink] > ;
[09:46] <telos> i have swap 768 mb
[09:46] <[uplink] > ;>
[09:46] <telos> i have ext3 10gb
[09:46] <selfsearcher> newbuns: try to install w32codecs (i hope it's the right name...)
[09:46] <ripzaw> can someone give me a step by step on what I need to do to mount a "Zen Micro" mp3 player?  Device Manager shows it picked it up, I just don't know the commands to mount it..... thanks
[09:46] <velko> telos, separate /home is nice so that your data does not get wiped out if you have to reinstall or change distro
[09:46] <telos> and rest 64 gb NTFS
[09:46] <ak4t5uk1> [uplink] ... it would be a lot faster to create an image of the disk..
[09:46] <andys> telos: why dont you let ubuquity(the installer) choose the partitions for you?
[09:46] <psycho78> telos: are you just running one OS on that HDD?
[09:46] <spasticteapot> [uplink] : Can you just put the CD in the drive?
[09:46] <spasticteapot> I'm kind of confused.
[09:46] <velko> telos, swap is a must have (still)
[09:46] <[uplink] > an image of the disk ?
[09:46] <[uplink] > what disk ?
[09:46] <[uplink] > what CD ?
[09:46] <[uplink] > ';P
[09:46] <selfsearcher> ripzaw: just USB
[09:46] <c1|freaky> micahcowan: thx
[09:46] <telos> i have windows on other hdd
[09:46] <velko> telos, and you have to install the main system in /
[09:46] <[uplink] > you mean Ubunut ?
[09:46] <[uplink] > *Ubuntu ?
[09:46] <spasticteapot> [uplink] : Can you just download the Ubuntu .iso and burn it to a CD?
[09:47] <[uplink] > I have it on the virtual drive
[09:47] <[uplink] > no need to burn
[09:47] <spasticteapot> Then put it in the drive, and run an installer.
[09:47] <[uplink] > ;
[09:47] <ripzaw> selfsearcher: can you tell me the commands I use in terminal? or how canI see the files?
[09:47] <ak4t5uk1> yeah.. run the virtual box
[09:47] <[uplink] > well, how do I run the installer ?
[09:47] <spasticteapot> Can you run "Ubuntu Installer" or whatever it's called?
[09:47] <[uplink] > yeah ak4t5uk1
[09:47] <newbuns> no i have. i used easy ubuntu. the colors are still funny thoughin totem, they play fine in vlc but theres a green strip a the end of em
[09:47] <[uplink] > exactly
[09:47] <[uplink] > when I boot it
[09:47] <[uplink] > tells me
[09:47] <spasticteapot> There should be an icon on the desktop.
[09:47] <[uplink] > if I want to run or install
[09:47] <Fizzbane> How do I force mount a hd?
[09:47] <zeroflag> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/83231 <-- can someone confirm that these issues don't exist with dapper? these "hotfixes" don't work for me.
[09:47] <telos> so i should create 3 partitions for ubuntu, 1 swap and 2 ext3?
[09:47] <[uplink] > icon on the desktop
[09:47] <selfsearcher> ripzaw: first of all, connect it to USB. Ubuntu will mount it as a removable device (Gnome)
[09:47] <andys> [uplink]  you cant boot it from a virtual drive, unless you are using an emulator of course
[09:47] <velko> telos, the thread scrolls fast and i missed your comments because you're not including my nick in your answers. type vel[TAB]  and ti will be autocompleted
[09:48] <[uplink] > well, only 2 icons n the desktop
[09:48] <spasticteapot> VMware + installs = bad idea.
[09:48] <ak4t5uk1> run the virtual box
[09:48] <spasticteapot> If that's what you're using.
[09:48] <[uplink] > RUNNING
[09:48] <Arcad3> if i take the latest kernel 2.6.20 i will compile on Ubuntu?
[09:48] <[uplink] > YES
[09:48] <ak4t5uk1> it'll open a manager of some sort
[09:48] <velko> telos, if you use my nick i'll see your messages highlighted
[09:48] <ak4t5uk1> create a host
[09:48] <ak4t5uk1> configure which device should boot first
[09:48] <[uplink] > I am running Ubuntu right now
[09:48] <psycho78> telos: I would keep it simple and create 2 partitions. One for ubuntu and one for swap. the swap should be equal or greater to your RAM but as you can see there are several ways to set up your partitions. The would be a very simple way.
[09:48] <ak4t5uk1> mount you'r image or disk if you have
[09:48] <[uplink] > but I dont know what to do next
[09:48] <ripzaw> selfsearcher: where can I see the files on it? is it in a particular folder its mounted to?
[09:48] <[uplink] > I am running Ubuntu right now
[09:48] <[uplink] > I am on the desktop
[09:48] <selfsearcher> ripzaw: did you connect it?
[09:49] <spasticteapot> [uplink] : Unless you're using a LiveCD I don't think you can install. You should have an "install" icon on the upper-left of the desktop.
[09:49] <aubade> [uplink] : I'm butting in har, do you have VirtualBox set to boot from the disc image?
[09:49] <ak4t5uk1> [uplink]  run the virtual box first
[09:49] <newbuns> whats way to see how much resources you a re using in ubuntu? anyone
[09:49] <[uplink] > I am !!!
[09:49] <wikiki> aubade if ubuntu sever doesn't detect my wireless can i pass wiffi-radar or something via usb ?
[09:49] <Fizzbane> How do I force mount an NTFS hd
[09:49] <bburg> newbuns: System Monitor (gnome)
[09:49] <dager> Fizzbane: use ntfs3g
[09:49] <[uplink] > I know how to handle VirtualBox
[09:49] <[uplink] > _
[09:49] <telos> velko: i don't know still if i should make 3 partitions or 2 ><
[09:49] <ripzaw> selfsearcher: yes its connected, device manager has it listed.  I just don't know where to go to view the files?
[09:49] <gnomefreak> newbuns: top
[09:49] <bburg> newbuns: or try using `top` at the command line
[09:49] <[uplink] > I have all the versions of Vista on there
[09:49] <makuseru> where can i get a system moniter that isnt in superkaramba?
[09:49] <Fizzbane> dager: i used it but it isnt mounted
[09:49] <[uplink] > on a dynamic virtual HDD
[09:50] <ak4t5uk1> click the the new button
[09:50] <velko> telos, look: the bare minimum is one partition: /
[09:50] <Luc_Aylesbury> Hello all, I wont ask to ask so I'll just go ahead :) runlevel tells me I'm in runlevel 2 but none of the services in the /etc/rc2.d/ directory were executed
[09:50] <telos> velko: it works better if its on 3 partitions or 2
[09:50] <dager> Fizzbane: did you create a mountpoint for it?
[09:50] <Luc_Aylesbury> does this mean something is corrupted on my system?
[09:50] <Fizzbane> i think so, its in /media/sda
[09:50] <muddyfox> Is there anywhere to get an edgy alternate install cd?
[09:50] <velko> telos, wait a second i'll explain it and you will decide for yourself
[09:50] <selfsearcher> ripzaw: find the right folder. Open the device. My Zen Micro works as an external HD
[09:50] <seraphire> micahcowan, It would appear that I am actually missing a number of packages. Going to reinstall the X set now.
[09:50] <ak4t5uk1> and then supply the necessary info just follow the wizzard [uplink] 
[09:50] <dager> Fizzbane: did you create a "/mount/windows" or whatever folder, though?
[09:50] <wikiki> Dns or lamp ? What i need to choose????????'
[09:51] <telos> velko: you can pm me also if you want :)
[09:51] <[uplink] > ak4t5uk1, what do I do when I am on the desktop ?
[09:51] <Fizzbane> dager: im not sure
[09:51] <[uplink] > I am practically running Ubuntu
[09:51] <aubade> wikiki: No realy experience in wireless. :\
[09:51] <dager> Fizzbane: once you do.. you can mount it with "mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mount/windows"
[09:51] <[uplink] > but i want to install it
[09:51] <micahcowan> seraphire, alright. I doubt I know enough beyond this point to be a great deal of help to you, anyway :/
[09:51] <velko> telos, i'm not registered and it will not work. but you can meet me in the channel #velko
[09:51] <ripzaw> selfsearcher: I've looked everywhere in filebrowser.... I don't know where it mounted to...
[09:51] <aubade> Isn't there a channel dedicated to questions about wireless adapters?
[09:51] <aubade> !wireless

[09:51] <seraphire> micahcowan, You've been a tremendous help. Thank you for your patience.
[09:51] <ceaser> Why are my fonts in the firefox UI smaller than every other GTK+2 app?
[09:51] <selfsearcher> ripzaw: try under /media

[09:52] <muddyfox> shawn34, Could try kino?
[09:52] <wikiki> aubade is telling me if i want lamp or dns what i should use?
[09:52] <[uplink] > "Examples" and "Install"
[09:52] <ak4t5uk1> the disk like one
[09:52] <shawn34> muddyfox, on gnome?

[09:52] <ak4t5uk1> click the install
[09:52] <dager> Fizzbane: "sudo mkdir /mount/windows", or wherever you want to put it
[09:52] <muddyfox> shawn34, Yeah, search in add/remove
[09:52] <[uplink] > ok
[09:52] <[uplink] > how many times ?

[09:52] <ripzaw> selfsearcher: nope its not anywhere in the media folder
[09:52] <ak4t5uk1> double click of course
[09:53] <spasticteapot> [uplink] : Remember, Ubuntu was not designed to work under a fancy-pants virtual machine.
[09:53] <[uplink] > :(
[09:53] <[uplink] > should I dual boot it ?
[09:53] <seraphire> micahcowan, It works! Thank you very much!
[09:53] <spasticteapot> I'd just buy a second PC from a thrift store ($15) and a KVM.
[09:53] <[uplink] > please, I want some recomendations
[09:53] <variant> does anyone know if there are free software drivers (or even something close) for marvell technology 88w8335 wifi chips?
[09:53] <micahcowan> seraphire, ? What the heck did /I/ do? :)
[09:53] <variant> trying to get it working with buntu
[09:53] <[uplink] > what should I install ?
[09:53] <spasticteapot> [uplink] : I know people have used Linux under a Virtual Machine - it's not exactly super-well supported though.
[09:53] <[uplink] > Kubuntu or Ubuntu ?
[09:53] <newbuns> how do i get the fancy vista effects like they show u in the ubuntu wiki? :)
[09:53] <aubade> I'm so confused in what you're attmping [uplink] , you trying to install Ubuntu onto a disk image to run in VirtualBox in a pre-existing Ubuntu installation? lol
[09:53] <seraphire> micahcowan, pointed me to logs that I was unaware of so I could dig the answer.
[09:54] <shawn34> muddyfox, this says for DV cameras, what about just taking a divx and converting to vcd?
[09:54] <spasticteapot> [uplink] : They're the same - different GUI.
[09:54] <seraphire> Thanks again everyone.
[09:54] <aubade> Or is there a win32 port of VirtualBox that I'm not aware of...
[09:54] <micahcowan> seraphire, so, it was just installing those extra packages, then? Which ones were they?
[09:54] <freemind> variant, look at the manufact. pages or try ndiswrapper :)
[09:54] <[uplink] > then what is recomended ?
[09:54] <spasticteapot> [uplink] : I'd try installing from the "Alternate Install" CD.
[09:54] <[uplink] > spasticteapot, what would you recomend me ?
[09:54] <variant> freemind: so you don't know then? :)
[09:54] <Fizzbane> dager: i get something saying "volume is scheduled for check. please boot windows TWICE, or use the force mount option."
[09:54] <muddyfox> shawn34, Not too sure about that, as a wild guess, maybe mencoder or k3b COULD do that
[09:54] <spasticteapot> Download the .iso, install, and done.
[09:54] <muddyfox> spasticteapot, Where do you get the alternate cd for edgy?
[09:54] <[uplink] > ubuntu or kubuntu ?
[09:55] <[uplink] > I have both
[09:55] <[uplink] > 64bit Kubuntu
[09:55] <[uplink] > :D
[09:55] <aubade> [uplink] : If you're really set on running Ubuntu through a virtual machine, I'd recommend using VMPlayer with a tailored image of Ubuntu.
[09:55] <mtha> hi, can anyone tell me how to embed fonts in a pdf and/or how to produce a 'distilled' pdf? thanks.

[09:55] <ripzaw> QUestion: if a Zen Micro MP3 player gets picked up automatically when plugged in, WHere would you go to view the files, or what command would you use to mount it?

[09:56] <Arcad3> is a good idea to copile kernel 2.6.20 ?
[09:56] <ak4t5uk1> Fizzbane does your pc support booting using usb?
[09:56] <kupesoft_> ripzaw: mount
[09:56] <aubade> [uplink] : It's really a matter of preference, both have near-equal system reqiurements.
[09:56] <mage> theres a device manager?
[09:57] <Fizzbane> ak4t5uk1: how could i find out?
[09:57] <mina_linux_Tux> ppl any comment ? ...

[09:57] <ak4t5uk1> mine... found it on the bios
[09:57] <mina_linux_Tux> am i off topic ,i if yes may anyone guide me to the right place ?
[09:57] <Fizzbane> ak4t5uk1: nvm yes it can boot by usb
[09:57] <ak4t5uk1> it says allow boot other external device
[09:57] <Arcad3> is a good idea to copile kernel 2.6.20 ? Will i may crush my sistem?
[09:58] <[uplink] > :(
[09:58] <aubade> ripzaw: I could take a stab, happen to know the device name and what filesystem it's formatted as?
[09:58] <ak4t5uk1> Fizzbane, if you an extra hd try or if you have alredy an hd with an os try booting from there
[09:58] <preaction> ripzaw: the first google response for "zen micro linux" is "gnomad2", which is apparently the program you're looking for
[09:58] <mina_linux_Tux> helloo any comment ?
[09:58] <aubade> mina_linux_Tux: I love your hat.
[09:58] <ak4t5uk1> then clean your pc from there... mine i have a back hd on a usb just incase...
[09:58] <muddyfox> Anyone point me in the direction of the aternate install cd for ubuntu edgy
[09:58] <mina_linux_Tux> aubade: ...?
[09:58] <Fizzbane> ak4t5uk1: ok i will try that thanks
[09:59] <[uplink] > :(
[09:59] <mage> muddyfox: its in the same directory as the regular one
[09:59] <chili5555_> Arcad3: it could, but i've had good luck installing 2.6.20 from Feisty on an Edgy machine
[09:59] <ak4t5uk1> [uplink]  if you have problem on which to choose... if you ask me... I think... i'll try ubuntu first
[09:59] <muddyfox> mage, Is it the server cd?

[10:14] <spasticteapot> andys: I PM'd you.
[10:14] <velko> ak4t5uk1, wesnoth
[10:14] <[uplink] > mmm ak4t5uk1, any recomendations ?
[10:15] <[uplink] > im going to restart now
[10:15] <ak4t5uk1> velko.... i haven't
[10:15] <wiikki> spasticteapot i did it but how can i change the configurations to set up for my wireless
[10:15] <[uplink] > so I hope everything goes well
[10:15] <[uplink] > should I partition my HDD ?
[10:15] <ripzaw> still being haggard... thanks for the help getting gtkpod installed....  Everything looks good, I just don't know how to access the mp3 player, or how to mount it (I don't know the command line for this) does anyone know?  The MP3 player shows up in device manager
[10:15] <[uplink] > or install it along with Windows ?
[10:15] <ak4t5uk1> [uplink]  good luck...
[10:15] <[uplink] > TY TY
[10:15] <not_a_k> what do I need to listen to ytmnd.com content :)
[10:15] <disasm> I can't wait to get all the dept machines moved over to ubuntu... arggghhh@stable keyword force upgrading a bunch of packages on debian machines because etch finally released...
[10:15] <[uplink] > ';p
[10:15] <aubade_> sayers: Not exactly bathing in games but there are some decent publishers and more games with native ports this year than there's been in a long time. More #ubuntu-offtopic material though.
[10:15] <[uplink] > ok
[10:15] <[uplink] > bye
[10:16] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: did add this line to it , what should i do next , must i restart ubuntu or run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[10:16] <spasticteapot> wiikki: "sudo iwconfig (interface) ESSID (router's ESSID)
[10:16] <disasm> sorry, that was probly better for offtopic as well
[10:16] <Slick> cheers bruenig, now I'm getting the error "No package 'libpanelapplet-2.0' found
[10:16] <Slick> No package 'gnome-python-2.0' found
[10:16] <Slick> "
[10:16] <spasticteapot> For me, that would be "sudo iwconfig eth1 essid LINKSYS"
[10:16] <ak4t5uk1> though playing games in ubuntu is pretty good i mean... considering the opengl i think developers around the world should start seeing linux a good platform for gaming....
[10:16] <wiikki> "sudo iwconfig (what is interface? give me an example please) ESSID (2WIRE811) and where i should set the key ?
[10:16] <Slick> I've tried doing the sudo apt get for those but it can't find those packages
[10:17] <spasticteapot> Enter iwconfig.
[10:17] <spasticteapot> One of your interfaces (probbably wlan0 or eth1) will give wireless information.
[10:17] <Yahooadam> what command do you need to install the stuff on ubuntu required to compile stuff ?
[10:17] <wiikki> spasticteapot is wlan0
[10:17] <preaction> mina_linux_Tux: after editing your init scripts, you'll need to restart your computer to see if they work. but since you already did "insmod", all you should have to do is restart X to see if the module / device works
[10:17] <ak4t5uk1> bye peeps... have to rest...
[10:17] <preaction> Yahooadam: apt-get install build-essential
[10:17] <spasticteapot> Okay - so "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid 2WIRE811"
[10:18] <Yahooadam> preaction - thx :)
[10:18] <ripzaw> mounting mp3 player help: I have created a directory /media/mp3  , also I have the MP3 player plugged in and recognized my device manager.  What command would I use to mount the mp3 player to that folder? thanks
[10:18] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: i did restart the ubuntu
[10:18] <spasticteapot> wiikki: Did it work?
[10:18] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: nothing happened
[10:18] <preaction> mina_linux_Tux: does modprobe show that the module was loaded?
[10:19] <velko> ripzaw, mount -t vfat /dev/sdaX /media/mp3
[10:19] <wiikki> spasticteapot but you didn't tell me what I need to set, how can it know that's is my wireless connection?  i mean how to set the name pass etc...
[10:19] <spasticteapot> JLXL: What's the problem with the A64?
[10:19] <variant> is it possibel to enable ntfs write suport on the edgy live cd?
[10:19] <spasticteapot> wiiki: You use encryption?
[10:19] <carcosa> in sed, what's the syntax to replace occurances of string "foo" with the contents of a file
[10:19] <spasticteapot> What kind?
[10:19] <JLXL> ehh, nothing
[10:19] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: i have to run modprobe ?
[10:19] <hendrixski> I got democracy player working again, but now certain videos won't play sound :-(
[10:19] <spasticteapot> JLXL: What's wrong with the A64?
[10:19] <wiikki> spasticteapot nope , normal key- 5796727545
[10:19] <ripzaw> VELKO: mount -t vfat /dev/sdaX /media/mp3 - mount: special device /dev/sdaX does not exist
[10:19] <mage> whats the gnome vncserver called? its something funny
[10:20] <mage> xavier?
[10:20] <kuba_> hello i've just typed a path in file 'fstab' to see my partition with windows.my question is : how to delete my entry?
[10:20] <JLXL> spasticteapot, nothing really, just thinking it would be easier for a newb and the chroot stuff
[10:20] <spasticteapot> wiikki: Normal?  There is no "normal" kind of encryption.
[10:20] <JLXL> that is called for with amd64
[10:20] <mage> oh, vino
[10:20] <velko> ripzaw, X is the number of your device. you are supposed to look in up in /var/log/messages for example
[10:20] <preaction> mina_linux_Tux: you don't have to, you can use it to check if a module is currently loaded in the kernel.
[10:20] <spasticteapot> JLXL: You know, A64's run in 32-bit mode just fine.
[10:20] <spasticteapot> JLXL: You'd still be better off with the A64 and ordinary Ubuntu than the 2ghz P4.
[10:21] <preaction> mina_linux_Tux: you may also want to check dmesg to see if your hardware was recognized, and less /var/log/Xorg.log to see if your hardware was loaded
[10:21] <velko> ripzaw, you can issue "tail /var/log/message" after plugging the device and will see under which name it gets recognized
[10:21] <spasticteapot> wiikki: I think you have 128-bit WEP.
[10:21] <velko> ripzaw, tail /var/log/messages
[10:22] <JLXL> spasticteapot, is there a good chroot guide to hold on to if I should get the urge to merge to 32?
[10:22] <spasticteapot> JLXL: I have no idea. All I know is that Ubuntu standard-version runs A-OK on A64s.
[10:22] <ripzaw> VELKO: can you tell from here what it would be called?
[10:22] <ripzaw> Apr  9 12:39:43 legos-desktop kernel: [17243678.800000]  usb 2-5: USB disconnect, address 6

[10:23] <wiikki> spasticteapot look: http://www.linuxcommand.org/man_pages/iwconfig8.html
[10:24] <velko> ripzaw, try this one instead "sudo egrep sd /var/log/messages"
[10:24] <bruenig> really gett the most out of that extended regex
[10:24] <kuba_>  hello i've just typed a path in file 'fstab' to see my partition with windows.my question is : how to delete my entry?
[10:24] <spasticteapot> wiikki: I've read the MAN page.
[10:24] <JLXL> spasticteapot, all I basically need is to get the Flash to work with it, this computer is just for poking around on the internet.
[10:24] <spasticteapot> wiikki: Try "sudo iwconfig wlan0 key (whatever your key is).
[10:24] <bruenig> kuba_, yeah that question doesn' t make much sense, pastebin your /etc/fstab
[10:24] <russe11> I have a directory full of directories full of .bz2 files, all of which I would like to extract to a single (other) directory. I don't know much about bash scripting. Can anyone help?

[10:24] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: i did run modprobe -a module name , said no such module
[10:24] <spasticteapot> JLXL: You own an A64 for poking around on the internet?
[10:25] <wiikki> spasticteapot just that? i don't think so really maybe something like:

[10:25] <bruenig> russe11, so it looks like this dir/dir/bunchof.tar.bz2
[10:25] <kuba_> bruenig: sorry don't understand
[10:25] <JLXL> spasticteapot, yes, it was on sale I got it for a hundred dollars
[10:26] <PepperBob> hi ya'll.
[10:26] <bruenig> !pastebin | kuba_ paste bin your /etc/fstab

[10:26] <velko> ripzaw, when do you attached your mp3 player? yesterday?
[10:26] <PepperBob> just installed feisty. is there a way to disable the splash image? just modify gub.conf / menu.lst ?+
[10:26] <damien_> hi
[10:26] <velko> ripzaw, the last entry is from yesterday...
[10:26] <PepperBob> the boot splash image
[10:26] <PepperBob> ^^
[10:26] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: ?
[10:26] <JLXL> I guess it's clocked at 1.8 'Venice'
[10:26] <russe11> bruenig: almost. It looks like /dir/dir/file.tar.bz2 and /dir/dir2/file.bz2 and dir2/dir/file.bz2, etc etc etc
[10:26] <bruenig> russe11, ...
[10:26] <ripzaw> velko: just attached it today
[10:27] <JLXL> not massive but nice
[10:27] <wiikki> spasticteapot iwconfig essid 2WIRE811 Channel 6 ap any key 5796727545
[10:27] <spasticteapot> wiikki: Well, yes. That would work.
[10:27] <wiikki> shouldn't work ? is wrong the format ?
[10:27] <velko> ripzaw, could you please use pastebin to show me your whole file then?
[10:27] <spasticteapot> Wait, what's the any for?
[10:27] <damien_> so i installed beryl...and it does not run the way it should. now i wanna get rid of it
[10:27] <preaction> mina_linux_Tux: did you install the module to the correct place? it might not be the same as the site told you
[10:27] <spasticteapot> You can enter those things one at a time, you know.
[10:27] <russe11> damien_: Depends on how you installed beryl.
[10:28] <avaloncio> Hi everyone, you Ubuntu users, brothers in deed
[10:28] <wiikki> spasticteapot =D let me check, what do you know about  "iwlist scanning" what does exaclty ?
[10:28] <LadyNikon> ahem..
[10:28] <smo_> http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Feisty_with_nVidia , http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Edgy_with_XGL_and_ATI , http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/XGL-Ubuntu
[10:28] <LadyNikon> brothers?
[10:28] <smo_> piur mi...
[10:28] <smo_> for me...
[10:28] <damien_> russe11, i followed the guide at http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Edgy_with_nVidia
[10:28] <ripzaw> velko: not sure how to use pastebin... arrggg sorry man
[10:28] <bruenig> russe11, right, ok, do this, switch into the master dir if you will and do "find . -iname *.bz2 -exec tar xf {} -C /path/to/directory/you/want/to/extract/them/all/in \;"
[10:28] <velko> !pastebin | ripzaw

[10:28] <spasticteapot> Iwlist seems to be broken on my machine.
[10:28] <ompaul> ripzaw, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and enjoy
[10:29] <spasticteapot> It SHOULD - in theory- give you information on accessible networks.
[10:29] <SheaTara> how do I change how many rows/columns of text there are in a virtual terminal?
[10:29] <spasticteapot> In reality, it does not seem to work very well.
[10:29] <xtknight> SheaTara, resize it
[10:29] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: so where do think is the right place , in case the site is wrong , i put kernel module in a directory inder /usr/ called it irtouch, and the Xinput module in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input
[10:30] <spasticteapot> wiikki: DUH!
[10:30] <SheaTara> xtknight: ah-ha
[10:30] <SheaTara> xtknight: I did not know there was such a command, thanks.
[10:30] <spasticteapot> wiiki: I shoulda re-read the MAN page. Sudo is necessary to run a scan.
[10:30] <damien_> russe11, you got any advice on my situatution?
[10:30] <xtknight> SheaTara, lol neither did i
[10:30] <xtknight> SheaTara, i meant resize with your mouse
[10:30] <xtknight> SheaTara, hahah
[10:30] <spasticteapot> wiiki: I keep forgetting that you need to do that under Ubuntu - I used Mepis for a while.
[10:31] <thezenmaster> hi!!
[10:31] <spasticteapot> Then, I was exposed to the glory that is Feisty.
[10:31] <spasticteapot> wiiki: Still with me?
[10:31] <preaction> mina_linux_Tux: and "modprobe -n /usr/irtouch/tkusb.ko" does nothing?
[10:31] <thezenmaster> how can I select multiple files in the same directory in the same fashion as CTRL+CLICK used by Windows?
[10:31] <spasticteapot> thezenmaster: Are you running Ubuntu, Kubuntu, or Xubuntu?
[10:31] <russe11> damien_: I'm not sure. Your best bet is to ask in #ubuntu-effects I think.
[10:31] <preaction> mina_linux_Tux: what about "lsmod"?
[10:32] <ripzaw> Here is the pastebin URL http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14763/
[10:32] <SheaTara> xtknight: well --
[10:32] <spasticteapot> wiiki: Still here?
[10:32] <velko> thezenmaster, did you tried ctrl+click?
[10:32] <damien_> russe11, k, thanks
[10:32] <thezenmaster> Ubuntu
[10:32] <foug> hi, which ftp programs are available for linux? a good amount i assume?
[10:32] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: i'll check and be back
[10:32] <thezenmaster> CTRL+CLICK doesn't wotk
[10:32] <xtknight> foug, nautlus has ftp mount, pretty decent
[10:32] <russe11> bruenig: find: missing argument to `-exec'
[10:32] <SheaTara> xtknight: that only tells how many rows/columns, and does not allow me to set it -- :-P
[10:32] <xtknight> SheaTara, resize -s
[10:32] <xtknight> SheaTara, 'man resize'
[10:33] <foug> xtknight: ftp mount? is that the name of the prog? I use FTP rush right now, still using windows atm
[10:33] <bruenig> russe11, maybe this, find . -iname *.bz2 -exec tar xf '{}' -C /path/to/directory/you/want/to/extract/them/all/in \;
[10:33] <jsuther> foug: gftp for GUI and wget for CLI are my preferences
[10:33] <thezenmaster> spasticteapot Ubuntu with gnome
[10:33] <xtknight> foug, no go in nautilus, file connect to server
[10:33] <ripzaw> velko: did you see this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14763/
[10:33] <Crane_> foug: there is also gftp and fireFTP
[10:33] <CyberCr33p> .gr
[10:33] <aubade_> foug: You can mount a ftp server as though it's a physical directory.
[10:33] <xtknight> !fuse
[10:33] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[10:33] <velko> ripzaw, i'll have a look now
[10:33] <SheaTara> xtknight: thanks
[10:33] <Crane_> foug: fIRE ftp IS A FIREFOX EXTENSION
[10:33] <Crane_> Sorry for caps
[10:33] <foug> jsuther, Crane_, aubade_, xtknight: thanks
[10:34] <foug> o i didn't know firefox had an ftp extension
[10:34] <spasticteapot> thezenmaster: I honestly don't know.
[10:34] <foug> i use Opera
[10:34] <spasticteapot> Shift+click, I think.
[10:34] <spasticteapot> I use XFCE (Xubuntu).

[10:39] <mina_linux_Tux> preaction: so i always make things using sudo , is there no way to access the system with root/password
[10:39] <russe11> bruenig: Thanks, I'll try again.
[10:39] <russe11> I think it's funny the Cygwin installer doesn't work under WINE.
[10:39] <bruenig> russe11, if you get another error, copy and paste exactly what your command is

[10:41] <slvmchn> bruenig: i just need a decent/stable program that can rip a dvd, and then burn it, or even two programs if needed
[10:41] <slvmchn> it's not for me, it's for a friend, he just switched to ubuntu and needs it
[10:41] <slvmchn> i've been helping him with everything else but i've never ripped/burned dvds in ubuntu
[10:42] <bruenig> slvmchn, as in a dvdshrink sort of program, or something that rips it to xvid
[10:42] <bruenig> or whatever else
[10:42] <adam__> heja
[10:42] <disasm> bruenig: ubotu has pipes, now that's cool
[10:42] <aev> dvdshrink is possible in linux is it not
[10:42] <disasm> aev: k9copy
[10:42] <xtknight> !info k9copy
[10:42] <bruenig> aev, xdvdshrink is native, works
[10:42] <ubotu> k9copy: DVD backup tool for KDE. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.1.0~beta1-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 630 kB, installed size 1708 kB
[10:42] <slvmchn> bruenig: it doesn't matter as long as he can take whats on one dvd, rip it, and put it on another dvd... filetypes/programs do not matter so much as long as it works
[10:42] <stevarino> disasm: yah, and that did look really promising but i think i got caught up on some of the instructions.. i have to go now but i'll re-read that later tonight
[10:42] <ripzaw> velko: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14765/
[10:42] <disasm> stevarino: ok, good luck
[10:42] <bruenig> slvmchn, yeah I would go with xdvdshrink, there also exists  kde program called k9copy that will do it
[10:42] <preaction> slvmchn: k3b can rip an ISO of the DVD and he could use the same program to burn it
[10:43] <ardchoille> slvmchn: http://dvdshrink.sourceforge.net
[10:43] <stevarino> disasm: also i'm a bit weary about trying anything over 3 months old, alsa seems to be a pretty fast moving project

[10:43] <slvmchn> +thanks guys! i'll relay the info

[10:43] <[uplink] > ...
[10:43] <hendrixski> aubade_,  yeah, I hadn't played around with that yet... I just assumed it didn't work welll so I used filezilla... I guess now I'll be using that :-)
[10:43] <bruenig> you could use dd to take the iso off if you wanted

[10:44] <[uplink] > ...
[10:44] <preaction> Soccrmastr20: not an ubuntu problem, usually a master/slave problem. is your jumper set right?
[10:44] <Soccrmastr20> I havent touched the jumpers for  2 years
[10:44] <PriceChild> [uplink] , maybe if you give some more information
[10:44] <Soccrmastr20> and its been working all that time
[10:44] <velko> ripzaw, it looks like the kernel sees that you have attached something on the usb port but does not know what

[10:44] <MatBoy> Hi All !
[10:44] <fr500> .exe
[10:44] <Soccrmastr20> ya I know not Ubuntu problem but you guys are so helpful ;)
[10:44] <asdro> need help: i have a new HDD and i mounted it. but i want the OS to use it as an extension of the first disk (use it for all the folders - home, opt, var, etc) if possible, without multiple partitions. any suggestions?
[10:45] <Soccrmastr20> nope, no hardware change
[10:45] <ripzaw> velko: does that mean I can't hook up the mp3 player to ubuntu?
[10:45] <bruenig> asdro, that will take some time
[10:45] <carcosa> in sed, how do I replace an occurance "foo" with the contents of a file
[10:45] <tore_> I installed linux for my first time now, and i liked it VERY mutch , now i have evrything i need in ubuntu, besides one thing and thats  online poker software, anyone knows of a online poker provider who has linux friendly poker software. i dont want to set up wine. ( if i dont have to)
[10:45] <Soccrmastr20> I did make the page file size larger in Widnows though
[10:45] <MatBoy> How stable is FireFox or Iceweasel in Ubuntu ? I'm on Debian now and it crashes there from time to time. I'm thinking about switching
[10:45] <bruenig> asdro, oh without multiple partitions? no that won't happen
[10:45] <asdro> bruenig i mounted it, i edited fstab.... but something is wrong :D
[10:45] <andys> tore_ why dont you try wine (winehq.org)
[10:45] <PriceChild> !pm | [uplink]

[10:45] <[uplink] > _
[10:45] <muddyfox> tore_, I think through WINE you can run partypoker, www.winehq.com
[10:45] <velko> ripzaw, i'm afraid yes. the drive is not attached to any logical device in the file system. as long as i can tell
[10:45] <[uplink] > -.-"
[10:45] <preaction> Soccrmastr20: that shouldn't break anything. a maxtor hd? check your cables
[10:46] <[uplink] > lol.
[10:46] <[uplink] > OK
[10:46] <asdro> bruenig: so I must make a partition for each folder? ok, how can i add a partition to a folder (in fstab) without losing the other data?
[10:46] <bruenig> asdro, you aren't going to get it to mount different parts of the filesystem without different partitions
[10:46] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): I couldnt install ubuntu
[10:46] <Soccrmastr20> I checked IDE and power supply , unplugged it and then back in again.  Not maxtor
[10:46] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): some partition problems
[10:46] <bruenig> asdro, unless you mean to put all of your old install on the new one, as in make the new HDD /
[10:46] <Pelo> tore_,  I thnk you want to setup a raid array, butdonT' ask me how I have no idea,  check the forum
[10:46] <ripzaw> velko: thats weird, other people on the ubuntu forums have done it.... just not sure how
[10:47] <tore_> for some reasons i only get errors, so i have given it up. btw does cedega support any poker ?
[10:47] <preaction> Soccrmastr20: bios auto-detect just hangs for a while? or does nothing at all?
[10:47] <asdro> bruenig: i just want the OS to use the new disk like an extension of the first one.
[10:47] <PriceChild> [uplink] , any details?
[10:47] <tore_> raid array hmm never heart of
[10:47] <Pelo> tore_,  sorry not for you
[10:47] <bruenig> asdro, ok, what you should do is you should move all the data underneath whatever part of the filesystem into the new partition and then have it mount there, so move all the files under /home, not including the /home folder and then set the fstab to mount that partition at /home
[10:47] <velko> ripzaw, did you googled about your device and linux. are you confident it is supported?
[10:47] <Soccrmastr20> the autodetect hangs then says not installed. when I unplug the IDE it does nothing at all. so thats why I think it knows its there but not finding it.
[10:47] <tore_> ah :)
[10:47] <preaction> Soccrmastr20: how old is the HD?
[10:47] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): you know where it comes to partition the HDD ?
[10:47] <andys> tore_ if you set wine up correctly I'm sure it will run.  If its java based it will run natively
[10:48] <Soccrmastr20> about 3 years
[10:48] <tore_> nice i have to try it some more then
[10:48] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): I have 2 partitions on my HDD
[10:48] <preaction> Soccrmastr20: try installing the HD on another port? try using another cable? try installing in another computer? if all that fails, i'd seriously consider busted hard drive
[10:48] <asdro> bruenig: yes, I can do that. I was asking whether there was a faster/easier way :)
[10:48] <Pelo> asdro,  you could make a symlink to your new drive, for your download folder and stuff like that
[10:48] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): A C: and a D: on the secondary part, I have HP recovery console
[10:48] <bert_> hey everyone, I was wondering if thee is an easy way to turn off UTF-8. The reason I need this is I am trying to run VDR and I get this message 'vdr: please turn off UTF-8 before starting VDR'
[10:49] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): any suggestions how to install it ?
[10:49] <preaction> bert_: uhmm.... no?
[10:49] <Soccrmastr20> preaction: this has happened before several times, a couple motnhs ago, but after  a day or two just started working again. but now it seems permanent. thanks for yuour help
[10:49] <bruenig> asdro, that way is pretty easy, not fast though
[10:49] <wiikki> I caaaaaaan't :<
[10:49] <PriceChild> [uplink] , you haven't told me the error it returns when it stops
[10:49] <velko> bert_, you can turn it temporary off for this specific program
[10:49] <bert_> velko: Thats perfect
[10:49] <preaction> Soccrmastr20: yeah, those first times were probably its death throes. you may want to let it relax for a few days, but most likely it's dead-for-ever
[10:49] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): it doesnt stop, it doesnt continue
[10:49] <bruenig> asdro, but no if you want to move stuff to a new drive, you are going to have to move it, that will take time, you could symlink certain parts of it like Pelo said but that didn't appear to be what you were wanting
[10:49] <velko> bert_, start it like that from the terminal "LC_ALL=C vdr"
[10:49] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): and YES im trying to tell you but I dont know how to explain it
[10:49] <velko> bert_, if your program is named vdr
[10:50] <[uplink] > ;] 
[10:50] <PriceChild> [uplink] , don't explain it then, tell me what the error it
[10:50] <PriceChild> *is
[10:50] <[uplink] > ok
[10:50] <asdro> bruenig thank you :) i will do it the easy+long way :)
[10:50] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): to partition the HDD
[10:50] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): right there
[10:50] <bert_> velko: It gave me the same message?
[10:50] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): it tells me if I want to erase my hole HDD or Manually Partition it
[10:51] <[uplink] > so I choose manually
[10:51] <[uplink] > *chose
[10:51] <muddyfox> [uplink] , Just fully erase! :D
[10:51] <velko> bert_, what do you type exactly?
[10:51] <Soccrmastr20> preaction: if I just leave the comp turned on with this livecd in the drive, is the HDD still "resting", or should I just leave the whoel comp off for a couple days?
[10:51] <kuba_> kto gada ??
[10:51] <PriceChild> [uplink] , there're 3 options
[10:51] <bert_> velko: LC_ALL=C vdr
[10:52] <preaction> Soccrmastr20: remove the HD for a couple days, or just disconnect it from the cables. it's a long shot but you might be able to get some usable data off it. most likely not though
[10:52] <velko> bert_, it's perfect. maybe the message is misleading?
[10:52] <Soccrmastr20> ok thanks
[10:52] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): yes
[10:52] <preaction> Soccrmastr20: if there's nothing really important on it, don't bother with the hassle. if there's something of utmost importance, do not do anything before consulting a professional service (but they are expensive)
[10:52] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): no only 2
[10:53] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): and I have Windows on my HDD
[10:53] <bert_> velko: I don't understand why it would want UTF-8 off in the first place. Seems like bad programming to me
[10:53] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): and I want to keep it

[11:02] <russe11> bruenig: I do. What does that have to do with it?
[11:02] <PriceChild> [uplink] , don't install it on your external, that's a lot harder
[11:02] <bruenig> russe11, the ones with all the .bz2
[11:02] <[uplink] > ok
[11:02] <[uplink] > I knew it
[11:02] <[uplink] > ;
[11:02] <bruenig> russe11, because you appear to be running this at / instead of at your directory
[11:02] <SheaTara> How do I make the fonts in my ctrl-alt-f? terminals smaller?
[11:03] <bruenig> russe11, nevermind, misread
[11:03] <russe11> bruenig: I think what's confusing is that I'm unpacking cygwin, so there are directories (in the directory I'm extracting to) called /usr/share, etc.
[11:03] <russe11> bruenig: These are not actually in my / directory.
[11:03] <bruenig> russe11, but you only need to go two directories deep right?
[11:03] <[uplink] > ok, defrag complete
[11:03] <zYe> help getting open gl working!
[11:03] <russe11> bruenig: I think it's more than that actually.
[11:04] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): Note: Root file not found
[11:04] <bruenig> russe11, you need to figure out what you are doing first
[11:04] <PriceChild> [uplink] , ?
[11:04] <[uplink] > I believe that is what appears on Ubunut
[11:04] <[uplink] > :(
[11:04] <wiikki> hiiiiiii
[11:04] <PriceChild> [uplink] , where?
[11:04] <wiikki> How can i install flux desktop ???
[11:04] <russe11> bruenig: I thought it wouldn't matter - that the command you gave would recurse into all subdirectories?
[11:04] <wiikki> in my ubuntu server
[11:04] <aubade_> wikki: sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[11:04] <bruenig> russe11, you might try to prefix that command with sudo
[11:05] <wiikki> aubade_ =*******
[11:05] <bruenig> russe11, since you keep getting all the permission errors
[11:05] <[uplink] > hda1 and all that
[11:05] <russe11> bruenig: I have permissions to read and write all directories on /media/usbdisk - it's a FAT32 formatted flash drive.
[11:05] <aubade_> aubade_ = awesome (?)
[11:05] <russe11> I don't want to break anything by running as sudo.
[11:05] <[uplink] > there are 3 boxes
[11:05] <[uplink] > ./media/hda1
[11:06] <[uplink] > then there is a check box and says: "Reformat?"
[11:06] <bert_> velko: Looks like LANG=C does the trick
[11:06] <bruenig> well works for me, one of the frustrations of irc help, I can't actually be there to figure out what the deal is
[11:06] <Rex_> hello all... can someone help me with wireless configuration? The only way for me to connect after reboot is to iwconfig with the essid, key and mode. Every time. What is the config file to make the change permanent? I have tried /etc/network/interfaces, but this file does not contain the wireless network information. Any ideas?
[11:06] <PriceChild> [uplink] , you need to make space for a new partition by shrinking others.
[11:06] <[uplink] > 3 boxes look the same
[11:06] <aubade_> wiikki: You meant fbdesk?
[11:06] <russe11> bruenig: Some of the directories contain odd characters (ftp%3a%2f%2fftp.cise.ufl.edu%2fpub%2fmirrors%2fcygwin/release/alternatives for example)
[11:06] <[uplink] > but hda 1 2 3 on the different boxes
[11:06] <velko> bert_, why it didn't worked before is still a mystery to me :-)
[11:06] <russe11> bruenig: could that be an issue?
[11:06] <zYe> someone help me fix my opengl!!!!!
[11:06] <wiikki> aubade_ whaat? btw how can i know if i have already connection to the internet?
[11:06] <bruenig> it shouldn't
[11:06] <[uplink] > (PriceChild): I have enough space for Linux
[11:06] <bert_> velko: cause it's my computer :)
[11:07] <[uplink] > 20GB now
[11:07] <[uplink] > free
[11:07] <PriceChild> [uplink] , unpartitioned space?
[11:07] <[uplink] > ?
[11:07] <[uplink] > cant I use C ?
[11:07] <bert_> velko: is there a command that I can use to check which kernal I'm running?
[11:07] <PriceChild> [uplink] , "free" is not the same as unpartitioned
[11:07] <PriceChild> [uplink] , no
[11:07] <aubade_> wiiki: You asked how to install 'fluxbox dekstop', I assumed you either meant the utility fbdesk or the window manager itself. :|
[11:07] <[uplink] > .......
[11:07] <velko> bert_, uname -a
[11:07] <[uplink] > then how do I do it ?
[11:07] <[uplink] > or where ?
[11:07] <PriceChild> [uplink] , you need to shrink an existint partitoin
[11:08] <bert_> velko: thanks
[11:08] <velko> bert_, np
[11:08] <[uplink] > and that would be ?

[11:20] <neil__> Hi, trying to install realplayer (or at least, the codecs)
[11:20] <neil__> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RealplayerInstallationMethods?action=show&redirect=RealPlayerInstallationMethods
[11:20] <neil__> this only works for dapper
[11:20] <billy> riaal: your welcome.
[11:20] <neil__> says to add dapper-commercial...
[11:20] <Soccrmastr20> np
[11:20] <neil__> does edgy-commercial, etc, exist too? Can i just swap the names out?
[11:20] <HaSH> how can i make tab auto compleate work with sudo ....in dapper i could do "sudo apt-ge<tab>" and it would make it "sudo apt-get" ... this doesnt seem to work anymore and it makes it a pain in the butt to do stuff using sudo...which is what *ubuntu uses
[11:20] <gnomefreak> neil__: than use edgy-commercial
[11:21] <neil__> gnomefreak: I can swap all 'edgy's out for 'dapper' then?
[11:21] <neil__> vice versa rather
[11:21] <kazuka> really
[11:21] <gnomefreak> neil__: im fairly sure edgy had one just never used it or seen it documented
[11:21] <gnomefreak> neil__: are you on edgy?
[11:21] <maikol> Rex_: what are you putting into network/interfaces
[11:21] <m3741> Hi, I'm running ubuntu edgy server and trying to install mysql-server. not to be picky but is there way to install it without perl?
[11:21] <neil__> oh...
[11:21] <neil__> ealPlayer is available from Canonical's Commercial software repository for Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper) only. To install RealPlayer on 6.10 (Edgy), use one of the methods below.
[11:21] <Thug-N-Me> i hope that the new ubuntu version (official release on 19) will support my nokia n73 device
[11:21] <gnomefreak> neil__: oops
[11:21] <neil__> my bad, Ill have to get the installer
[11:21] <gnomefreak> neil__: wait a minute
[11:22] <neil__> Hope linux realplayer doesnt rape the system like windows one does.. all I want is the damned codec :P
[11:22] <PriceChild> neil__, no need to install realplayer to play realmedia
[11:23] <neil__> PriceChild: really? :D How can I get the media running?
[11:23] <Pelo> neil__,  i believe that mplayer or vlc will play  rm files
[11:23] <neil__> Im after the bbc news clips on the site...
[11:23] <Askar> I try to print on a shared xpprinter but get an error on the xpprinter..dont know what it is in english but something like: "notlocal document with earlier version" what can it mean?
[11:23] <dvheumen> These lockups can happen as fast as within a week, or as slow as a month. The strangest thing is that I could do a normal reboot (without having any screen to view) because all other things didn't work. Also one NIC didn't respond to pinging while the other did.
[11:23] <paul201> hey i need help
[11:23] <billy> mplayer plays .rm files fine.
[11:23] <paul201> i cant partition my drive

[11:24] <ubotu> Beta: 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
[11:24] <Pelo> paul201,  what are you trying to do ?
[11:24] <billy> riaal: it's not very straightforward like that.  adding vga=791 to the default options line will give you close to 1024x768, I think.

[11:45] <maikol> malcome: depends on what you want
[11:45] <gnomefreak> neil__: i did the same exact thing i told you to do and it works here. are you on 64bit?
[11:45] <ripzaw> Does anyone know anything close to Mirc for Linux?
[11:45] <neil__> gnomefreak: nope, 32
[11:45] <velko> Apollo101, sudo tune2fs -j /your/device
[11:45] <gnomefreak> ripzaw: xchat
[11:45] <waxyfresh> malcome, what are you looking for in a desktop?
[11:45] <malcome> gnomefreak- just got some spare time so any
[11:45] <conn> hi, does anyone know if there's an env variable for freetype that lets you specify a custom .fonts.conf file?
[11:45] <maikol> Rex_: is there a reason you want it static or can it be dhcp
[11:45] <malcome> i already have openbox sawfish etc.
[11:46] <gnomefreak> malcome: you mean maikol ?
[11:46] <velko> Apollo101, the partition should _not_ be mounted
[11:46] <beg1689> hi, i have a .c and .h source file, and i need to compile it into a kernel module (.ko) is there a simple way to do that?
[11:46] <neil__> gnomefreak: fails in konqueror too...
[11:46] <Apollo101> velko how can i recreate the journal. (what is journal any way)?
[11:46] <gnomefreak> neil__: edgy?
[11:46] <malcome> yh
[11:46] <maikol> malcome: you can try fluxbox
[11:46] <velko> Apollo101, or you can mount the partition as ext2 instead of ext3. the only difference is the journal
[11:46] <Apollo101> velko it doesnt mounts any
[11:46] <malcome> oh i have that i like it alot
[11:46] <maikol> malcome: me too
[11:46] <neil__> gnomefreak: yup
[11:46] <velko> Apollo101, as ext2?
[11:47] <wiikki> If i have ubuntu can i remove the gnome desktop and install fluxbox ?
[11:47] <bruenig> wiikki, yes
[11:47] <Cam> Someone please help me!!! I need to set up 3 computers with 6.10 to one PRINTER through a router.
[11:47] <Apollo101> velko its not even mountin my other fat nfts
[11:47] <waxyfresh> does fluxbox or any  other desktop support transparency? what does xubuntu use for a desktop?
[11:47] <malcome> u have to install fluxbox first
[11:47] <Apollo101> velko iam very new to linux.
[11:47] <malcome> fluxbox doesnt i dont htink
[11:47] <velko> Apollo101, fat and ntfs are not relevant

[11:47] <billy> don't play with m80's kids.

[11:47] <briancron> Cam have you installed it on the main computer yet?
[11:47] <velko> Apollo101, you have a working linux install, right?
[11:47] <gnomefreak> neil__: ok i think i know the issue. please file a bug on it and assign it to me
[11:47] <bruenig> wiikki, not exactly the same
[11:47] <maikol> malcome: you can use a .xinitrc file and make your own custom setup like i have on my laptop
[11:47] <Cam> all computers have ubuntu
[11:47] <wiikki> bruenig whay not?
[11:47] <briancron> the printer that is...
[11:47] <malcome> wow
[11:48] <Cam> installed what???
[11:48] <malcome> brb
[11:48] <Cam> I guess not
[11:48] <bruenig> wiikki, you would have to remove everything from ubuntu-desktop
[11:48] <wiikki> bruenig the problems is that i can't configurate my wireless in ubuntu server and doing it in ubuntu normal, yes, because has a graphical mode to do it
[11:48] <wiikki> bruenig ok?? how?
[11:48] <briancron> install the printer on the computer you will directly print from
[11:48] <Apollo101> velko i had. not now
[11:48] <malcome> bk- is xlg anygood as i am downloading it
[11:48] <Cam> yes
[11:48] <velko> Apollo101, what do you have now?
[11:48] <maikol> Rex_: did that help any
[11:48] <briancron> Then you can use CUPS to print to it from the others really easily
[11:48] <Cam> ALl can print to it
[11:48] <Apollo101> velko windows. but i can reinstall linux by cd
[11:49] <Apollo101> velko what you want me to do
[11:49] <Cam> how do I configure cups?? I already use it to print
[11:49] <waxyfresh> whats a desktop enviroment that does support transparancy?
[11:49] <neil__> gnomefreak: ok :)
[11:49] <neil__> just as a note:
[11:49] <neil__> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RealplayerInstallationMethods?action=show&redirect=RealPlayerInstallationMethods
[11:49] <malcome> kde?
[11:49] <waxyfresh> when synaptic says its going to remove several packages i didint select,is it really going to do this?
[11:49] <malcome> xfce?
[11:49] <slicslak> what's the default app for playing sounds with?  i need the name to run it from the terminal.
[11:49] <neil__> Troubleshooting RealPlayer for Linux
[11:49] <neil__> RealPlayer and Firefox 2
[11:49] <jose__> hello friends
[11:49] <neil__> tells you to click the real file formats, and reassign them
[11:49] <velko> Apollo101, i'm trying to get the facts first. i still don't understand what you have done and what do you have on your computer
[11:49] <neil__> however I dont have any real audio formats listed there :)
[11:49] <briancron> go to the other computers and add the printer using http://192.168.2.??:631 and it should find the printer and print to it
[11:49] <maikol> waxyfresh: its the window manager that supports transparency or not
[11:49] <eternaljoy> how can I remove Grub from bootsectors pls?
[11:49] <gnomefreak> hence the patch is missing
[11:49] <jose__> why i can not a super user in the ubuntu
[11:50] <jose__> :)
[11:50] <jose__> ?
[11:50] <malcome> oh- i am installing vmware 6 workstation but near the end it says networking failed anyone know a way to fix
[11:50] <velko> Apollo101, a short and precise description would be very helpful
[11:50] <briancron> Cam; but first you have to open the printer and click on the global settings and allow sharing
[11:50] <PriceChild> !sudo > jose__ (see the pm from ubotu)
[11:50] <gnomefreak> neil__: it was fixed in feisty and iirc i built it for edgy for personal use
[11:50] <waxyfresh> maikol, oops i meant to say window manager,so any idea?
[11:50] <Cam> open the printer how?
[11:50] <Cam> literally open the printer??
[11:50] <Cam> noo
[11:50] <beg1689> How can i compile a kernel module from a single .c file?
[11:50] <beg1689> please
[11:50] <briancron> Cam: Settings > Admin > Printers
[11:50] <malcome> i finding this language quite hard i am only just keepin up- i am 12:P
[11:50] <maikol> waxyfresh: for true transparency you need a compositing window manager: xfwm4, compiz, beryl
[11:50] <jugo> A good alternative to VMware is Qemu.
[11:51] <Cam> ok thanks braincron you lead me in the direction!!!! THANKS
[11:51] <beg1689> no you dont
[11:51] <foxiness> jose__: to keep u safe :) and stable not just super
[11:51] <beg1689> transset and xcompmgr provide transparency and fading in any wm
[11:51] <gnomefreak> neil__: changingg it from totem to realplayer shouldnt help you just fyi
[11:51] <briancron> Cam: actually... Settings > Administration > Printers... then click on Global Settings and allow sharing
[11:51] <maikol> transset is slow
[11:51] <malcome> anyone have probs with gaim lately
[11:51] <PriceChild> beg1689, xcompmgr is a compositing manager
[11:51] <Apollo101> velko or  can i install a new linux. but use the settings and configs and app of the backuped linux installation.(since i can browse the image file.  copy .kde and replace it to the new installed os.  any ideas?)
[11:51] <neil__> gnomefreak: thats what I though, but no real formats are listed. About:plugins does show it as loaded though, very odd
[11:51] <beg1689> you said window manager
[11:51] <beg1689> he*
[11:51] <neil__> are you gnomefreak on launchpad?
[11:51] <waxyfresh> maikol, beryl/compiz dosent work on my hardware,so would xfwm4?wait is that what xubuntu uses?
[11:52] <foxiness> malcome: what kind of ...?
[11:52] <PriceChild> beg1689, "for true transparency you need a compositing window manager: xfwm4, compiz, beryl"
[11:52] <bruenig> wiikki, well I know a way to remove it all but, then you would be left with nothing
[11:52] <jugo> Malcome: I have not, although it has recently been renamed Pidgin, so I could see maybe a few dev problems.
[11:52] <gnomefreak> neil__: iirc edgy firefox is same as any other firefox it opens player depending on media
[11:52] <shawn34> waxyfresh, #ubuntu-effects
[11:52] <eternaljoy> how can I remove Grub from bootsectors pls?
[11:52] <gnomefreak> neil__: yes
[11:52] <foxiness> neil__: yes :)
[11:52] <bruenig> wiikki, including no X
[11:52] <PriceChild> beg1689, meh... its a grey area
[11:52] <malcome> oh it just doesnt let gmail work
[11:52] <beg1689> fine i guess your right... so do you know how to compil a kernel module? :-P
[11:52] <Pelo> eternaljoy,  ask in #grub
[11:52] <jugo> Thats odd.
[11:52] <malcome> says error in server but i checked and it is correct
[11:52] <velko> Apollo101, if you have read access to the files in the backup you shurely can do clean install and copy the /home directory from your backup
[11:53] <gnomefreak> neil__: you can try it but im not betting on it to work
[11:53] <waxyfresh> when synaptic says its going to remove several packages i didint select,is it really going to do this?
[11:53] <bruenig> waxyfresh, what packages
[11:53] <foxiness> malcome: gmail ?? google-talk or mail service ?
[11:53] <malcome> yes- it gets rid of things that wont be needed
[11:53] <jugo> Malcome: Make sure you go through the guide and make sure you have all the port numbers right and the right settings.
[11:53] <neil__> gnomefreak: try what? :)
[11:53] <wiikki> bruenig no wireless drivers neother?
[11:53] <malcome> google talk
[11:53] <malcome> jugo- willl od
[11:53] <Pelo> waxyfresh,  depends on what packages it is saying, some are just bogus packages for installation purposes, like ubuntu-desktop ,  you're fine removing that
[11:53] <bruenig> wiikki, do this: acsh ubuntu-desktop | grep Depends | sed -e 's/, /\n/g' -e 's/Depends: //' (this will show everything that you will be removing)
[11:53] <gnomefreak> neil__: naming realplayer as default app
[11:54] <malcome> omg my head hurts from all techno talk
[11:54] <neil__> thats my point, I cant
[11:54] <waxyfresh> bruenig, theres a ton too many to list
[11:54] <Pelo> malcome,  just read the stuff adressed to you
[11:54] <neil__> no real formats are listed in the manage window on firefox
[11:54] <gnomefreak> neil__: the first part of realplayer problems
[11:54] <bruenig> wiikki, sorry, that has my alias in there, do this: apt-cache show ubuntu-desktop | grep Depends | sed -e 's/, /\n/g' -e 's/Depends: //'
[11:54] <malcome> ok
[11:54] <KI4UTX> Would anyone be able to assist me with an install problem?
[11:54] <Apollo101> velko- if i copy the /home folder to the new installation. from the backup. i will the .kde folder and all settings and all apps installed in the backup to   the new installed linux ?
[11:54] <neil__> ah :D
[11:54] <jose__> foxiness: i know what is su and sudo but it hasn't asked me to su password during the installation
[11:54] <gnomefreak> neil__: this part of guide Troubleshooting RealPlayer for Linux
[11:54] <jose__> thats whay when i write su
[11:54] <malcome> ki4utx ok

[11:55] <paul201> Pelo its on the installtion part where it has to do the partition part and its been there for 20 minutes
[11:55] <khaladan> how can i get a list of all installed packages??
[11:55] <malcome> any one got tilda?
[11:56] <gnomefreak> jose__: when you installed ubuntu it asked for user name and password that is your sudo password
[11:56] <foxiness> jose__: sudo chmod
[11:56] <[1] qbert> hey qbert you here
[11:56] <gnomefreak> neil__: yes
[11:56] <Pelo> paul201,  did you select the partition ?
[11:56] <bruenig> khaladan, dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall
[11:56] <velko> khaladan, dpkg --get-selections

[11:56] <bruenig> KI4UTX, feisty support in #ubuntu+1
[11:56] <Stapol> ad
[11:56] <mikebeecham> Can anyone tell me how I can cause Windows to boot up automatically instead of Linux when I switch my PC on?  I really want to use Ubuntu, but my family use windows more than me.  I want to be able to set up my boot-up sequence, so that I get my choice screen when I switch the computer on, but if I leave the timer to run down it boots up windows, and not Linux?
[11:56] <Pelo> paul201,  did you select the option with the least amount of choice,  ie no manual repartitionning and stuff like that ?
[11:56] <Stapol> DAMNIT
[11:56] <gnomefreak> was right
[11:56] <jose__> ok hawever thanks a lot
[11:57] <Stapol> WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN TO ME
[11:57] <waxyfresh> bruenig, its alot of python stuff it wants to remove
[11:57] <KI4UTX> oops thought I was over there... I get the same results on dapper though
[11:57] <bruenig> mikebeecham, gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list and scroll down and cut and paste the entire windows entry above the linux entry
[11:57] <KI4UTX> I'm dual booting with vista and replacing an existing Suse install
[11:57] <paul201> pelo i selected resize ide1 master partition 1 (hda) and use free space
[11:57] <Pelo> paul201,  that was the problem
[11:58] <bruenig> waxyfresh, it will remove whatever is no longer necessary, if it says it is going to remove something, it will
[11:58] <xgermx> @import url(chrome://chatzilla/skin/output-dark.css);
[11:58] <xgermx> .msg {
[11:58] <xgermx>   font-size: larger !important;
[11:58] <xgermx> }
[11:58] <xgermx> sorry
[11:58] <gnomefreak> bruenig: its menu.lst ;)
[11:58] <bruenig> I swear I saw that I had menu.list and then backspaced, then I must have put it again
[11:58] <waxyfresh> bruenig, why does it sometimes want to remove important stuff,like GDM?
[11:58] <mikebeecham> bruenig: My menu.list is empty?
[11:59] <Pelo> paul201,  you should have had the option to select between your  "big" windows partition and your "small"  ext3 partition,  I don'T know what is going on at the moment but I hope you are not overwriting your windows install
[11:59] <gnomefreak> mikebeecham: menu.lst
[11:59] <bruenig> mikebeecham, close that and change it to menu.lst in that command
[11:59] <gnomefreak> waxyfresh: what are you removing and why?
[11:59] <foxiness> waxyfresh: beta ? alpha?
[11:59] <hotti> hello, is the ipod-hal (automounting ipod nano) fix in feisty beta?
[11:59] <paul201> pelo no im not ( i think) but i only have the hda1 partition or editing partion tables and erasing hda1
[12:00] <gnomefreak> hotti: #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[12:00] <Pelo> paul201, hold on , phone
[12:00] <eternaljoy> is there a way to create a bootable DVD that copies and  loads the MBR and bootsectors to the DVD, so I can then boot Ubuntu from my HD by using the DVD?
[12:00] <mikebeecham> thanks guys...I'll try that now
