[12:01] <javaJake> centinul, are you wireless? Let's get that straight...
[12:01] <Stormx2> [H4z3] : Don't repeat. Have you ran sudo apt-get update ?
[12:01] <AndyC1> by default it throttles to 1ghz on battery, but i want it to go down to 500mhz
[12:01] <mon^rch> Slart: ty
[12:01] <centinul> javajake: 2200bg... but like I said it's not a problem with the card because if I restart the service it works fine
[12:01] <centinul> javajake: yes wireless
[12:01] <Slart> mon^rch: you're welcome
[12:01] <javaJake> centinul, OK, can you send me /var/log/syslog?
[12:01] <centinul> javajake: It seems the problem is that the networking service isn't starting on book
[12:01] <[H4z3] > Stormx2: Yes, Thats how i get the error. Sorry i only repeat because i dont know if anywill will read far back enough
[12:01] <javaJake> What I want is the full boot, plus you restarting the service
[12:02] <javaJake> That'll tell me the difference between the auto and manual.
[12:02] <iGama> LOL do you guys belive i was baned from a server for refusing to use iso instead of UTF? LoL
[12:02] <iGama> xD
[12:02] <Alan> Stormx2, 0.12.2 (http://www.codescape.net/paste/show/55)
[12:02] <Stormx2> iGama: #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:02] <javaJake> iGama, depends on what exactly you said....
[12:02] <centinul> how do I configure the service to start on boot?
[12:02] <javaJake> Stormx2, oh, of course, sorry. :)
[12:02] <kitche> iGame: some clients can't understand UTF so it just coems up as squares
[12:02] <javaJake> centinul, link to it in /etc/rcS.d/
[12:02] <Alan> Some clients are crap :P
[12:02] <Stormx2> Alan: I'm on the version below. How have you installed it?
[12:02] <[H4z3] > Stormx2: If i get that error on update is there any way past it?
[12:03] <centinul> javajake: How do I do that?
[12:03] <noname> Alright then... bye bye
[12:03] <Alan> Stormx2, its the latest in feisty repo
[12:03] <centinul> I tried update-rc.d networking defaults
[12:03] <Stormx2> Alan: I found Sonata to be absolutely excellent. i torrent most of my music, so I rely on my folder naming scheme for organisation, rather than tags.
[12:03] <ferret_0567> xtknight: does the DS3 support Speedstep?
[12:03] <Coole^> nt
[12:03] <xtknight> ferret_0567, it supports intel EIST
[12:03] <xtknight> the newer version of speedstep
[12:03] <xtknight> speedstep is actually a CPU feature, and yes the motherboard does allow for it as well
[12:03] <ferret_0567> ok, and it works great?
[12:04] <Stormx2> Alan: Which client are you using?
[12:04] <javaJake> centinul, cd /etc/rcS.d/; ln -s <path to script> S40<name>
[12:04] <xtknight> ( not mobo dependent )
[12:04] <Slart> AndyC1: I don't think you can select "any frequency" for the cpu.. my AMD 64 only goes 2, 1.8 and 1 Ghz.. I can't make it go down to 0.5 Ghz even if I wanted.. not without rebooting anyways
[12:04] <xtknight> im sure it's ifne
[12:04] <xtknight> linux can not throttle Core 2 Duos yet
[12:04] <Alan> Stormx2, i always tag + move my music with Ex Falso
[12:04] <[H4z3] > Lol
[12:04] <javaJake> centinul, the number tells it in what position should it be launched, so the lower the number, the closer to first place it is
[12:04] <ferret_0567> Why not?
[12:04] <xtknight> well actually it can, but only once they reach 85..that's a CPU feature not a linux one.  there is no userspace gov for C2D yet
[12:04] <xtknight> unsupported?
[12:04] <xtknight> not that i know of yet, it can't.
[12:04] <javaJake> centinul, sorry the S<number> is what I meant
[12:04] <ferret_0567> hmm...
[12:04] <bXi> !ati
[12:04] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:04] <AndyC1> Slart: ah, thanks. doubt i would see too huge a battery life increase anyway
[12:04] <Alan> Stormx2, depends on the mood i'm in - gmpc, ncmpc, pympd.... all create the same problem, as does plain 'mpc toggle'
[12:05] <[H4z3] > Can anyone help with the problems upgrading to feisty fawn?
[12:05] <centinul> javajake: my system doesn't boot up into rcS do that wouldn't help
[12:05] <user_> hey guys, i have one question. Do you reads techblog?
[12:05] <Stormx2> Alan: I was about to suggest checking with mpc heh. My only recommendation is uninstall, build-dep and compile from source.
[12:05] <Slart> AndyC1: nah.. you might get more from making hard drives go to sleep.. disabling other stuff etc
[12:05] <centinul> how do I get my system to boot into that runlevel?
[12:05] <javaJake> centinul, oh, no kidding! What does it use to boot?
[12:05] <centinul> javajake: it boots to runlevel 2
[12:06] <Stormx2> Alan: it isn't that much of a big deal doing that.
[12:06] <centinul> can I change that?
[12:06] <kahrytan> Stormx: The mic does work but....
[12:06] <javaJake> centinul, OK, then use folder /etc/rc2.d/ instead...
[12:06] <centinul> ya I realize that, but can I change the runlevel that it boots to?
[12:06] <Alan> Stormx2, i can do it in a way that can easily be uninstalled with apt-get/aptitude ?
[12:06] <GaiaX11_> Why did they kick mozilla and opera away from the repos?
[12:06] <[H4z3] > Can anyone help with the problems upgrading to feisty fawn?
[12:06] <xtknight> Alan, checkinstall
[12:07] <xtknight> !checkinstall
[12:07] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[12:07] <Stormx2> Alan: Probably not.
[12:07] <g0ow> can someone help me...im trying to upgrade dapper to edgy... but i think it is failing to because of the gpg key
[12:07] <Slart> GaiaX11_: I'd guess some licensing issue
[12:07] <xtknight> instead of "sudo make install" you do "sudo checkinstall -D"
[12:07] <DimmuR> hi i've downloaded ubuntu 7.04 from this http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download place and run it into graphical mode. I can't find user and pass to login - can some1 point me in that matter?
[12:07] <xtknight> and it makes a deb
[12:07] <Alan> xtknight, nice
[12:07] <xtknight> and installs it
[12:07] <Stormx2> Alan: I don't know, really.
[12:07] <Slart> GaiaX11_: but mozilla... I don't know
[12:07] <Blazin> Hola amigos

[12:07] <centinul> anyone know what the best drivers are for an ATI Mobility 7500

[12:10] <reassor> 7.04 *
[12:10] <GaiaX11_> Why mozilla isn't in the repos. Could someone explain me?
[12:10] <xtknight> mozilla deprecated in favor firefox?
[12:10] <xtknight> of*
[12:10] <[H4z3] > jmg: Ok well i get this error when i try to upgrade Failed to fetch http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/universe/source/Sources.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[12:11] <szachista_> xtknight: err... you mean mozilla browser, right?
[12:11] <toxicice> im trying to install my ati driver and get this error
[12:11] <toxicice> toxic@toxic-laptop:~/Desktop$ sudo module-assistant prepare
[12:11] <toxicice> sudo: module-assistant: command not found
[12:11] <Slart> GaiaX11_: hmm.. you're right.. no mozilla (whatever the old version is called now)
[12:11] <garren> I had 6.10 dwon but with 7.04 I'm lost I can't even get a bittorrent client to work
[12:11] <szachista_> xtknight: it's dead now, look at seamonkey
[12:11] <LjL> toxicice: erm, you need to install it first
[12:11] <xtknight> szachista_, yea thre is no mozilla in repos.. only firefox
[12:11] <gregorovius> anyone knows how to make firestarter stop flooding my log files?
[12:11] <jmg> toxicice: sudo apt-get install module-assistant
[12:11] <toxicice> i already did it
[12:11] <Slart> GaiaX11_: didn't find any seamonkey either
[12:11] <szachista_> xtknight: seamonkey is the continuation of what was mozilla suite
[12:11] <xtknight> yea
[12:11] <jmg> [H4z3] : please try sudo apt-get update
[12:11] <Doctordoog> with the alternative CD, would I be able to boot into a graphical live CD or would that only be on the normal desktop cd
[12:11] <xtknight> what advantages of that over firefox?
[12:12] <[H4z3] > jmg: I have, thats the error i get..
[12:12] <xtknight> Doctordoog, only the normal desktop
[12:12] <Slart> !seamonkey
[12:12] <ubotu> Seamonkey, formerly known as "Mozilla Application Suite", is available at http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/ with install instructions for ubuntu at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=186011
[12:12] <xtknight> Doctordoog, alternate is Text mode only
[12:12] <oriez> how do i use Doom if i already install it on Windows?
[12:12] <xtknight> !wine
[12:12] <jmg> [H4z3] : try selecting a different server in synaptic
[12:12] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[12:12] <reassor> xtknight : i even tried on Vmware :) only worked if i emulated cdrom from image lol :) i tried with my old good 6.12 bastard :)
[12:12] <[H4z3] > jmg: Tried that too, same problem
[12:12] <toxicice> the module-assistant is not available with jmg: toxicice: sudo apt-get install module-assistant
[12:12] <jmg> [H4z3] : try unselecting sources
[12:12] <rocketronnie> xtknight: it's an application suite, so it has a browser, mail client, and web authoring tool
[12:12] <luca> good day everyone
[12:12] <[H4z3] > jmg: Lol, again.. tried that
[12:12] <xtknight> rocketronnie, ah i'd prolly just as soon use Firefox and Evolution (or Thunderbird) separately
[12:13] <xtknight> is seamonkey popular?
[12:13] <luca> does anyone know how to activate glx with the new nvidia-glx-new driver?
[12:13] <rocketronnie> xtknight: yeah, it's alot of bloat if you just want a browser
[12:13] <javaJake> xtknight, probably not. :P
[12:13] <szachista_> xtknight: to be honest... nobody uses it ;)
[12:13] <xtknight> i just cant imagine it would be with Firefox out there (yes they are two diff animals)
[12:13] <PurpZeY> Is it easy to install Fiesty to an external USB drive, and if so, will grub still load up during booting?
[12:13] <xtknight> little known..
[12:13] <szachista_> xtknight: but unpopular = secure
[12:13] <GaiaX11_> Slart: I think ubuntu is becoming a business. They are making any dealing with firefox people. This is the only explanation.
[12:13] <Slart> never seen anyone use mozilla seamonkey
[12:13] <xtknight> szachista_,  lol i donno..it uses the same engine as firefox right?  gecko?
[12:14] <reassor> yes
[12:14] <SmileyLap> how do i access my gfs usb hdd.... i plugged it in but it didn't appear on the desktop :<
[12:14] <xtknight> so insecure and unpopular! horrible!
[12:14] <xtknight> :P
[12:14] <xtknight> hardly
[12:14] <reassor> just UI is little diffirent
[12:14] <xtknight> firefox has never failed me...
[12:14] <xtknight> i just hope IE never comes to linux...MS might get desparate
[12:14] <toxicice> any one can help me to install an ati radeon xpress 200m on ubuntu?
[12:14] <walkintome> hi all! is there  decent backup/restore program for ubuntu similar to windows/osx so that if I do something to corrupt the system i can resotore to an earlier point?
[12:14] <Slart> GaiaX11_: or they just couldn't find anyone to package seamonkey..
[12:14] <tsmithe> toxicice: m-a is the command for module assisstant
[12:14] <xtknight> ugh
[12:14] <toxicice> how do i use it tsmithe im new on this
[12:14] <tsmithe> !ati > toxicice (that may be of help)
[12:14] <rocketronnie> luca: i don't think you have to activate it once you have the package installed
[12:14] <Slart> xtknight: oh.. but you can run it using wine.. =)
[12:15] <szachista_> walkintome: ubuntu ain't windows
[12:15] <stefg> SmileyLap: 99% it's a hardware problem... the cable is broken, or the jack is worn out
[12:15] <tsmithe> toxicice: i'm not sure. i just looked it up :)
[12:15] <xtknight> Slart, oh yes im dying to
[12:15] <xtknight> Slart, so much faster than FF, more secure etc
[12:15] <xtknight> :P
[12:15] <toxicice> lol
[12:15] <tsmithe> toxicice: try `man m-a`
[12:15] <szachista_> walkintome: what kind of backup you mean? the whole system?
[12:15] <LjL> !backup > walkintome    (walkintome, see the private message from Ubotu)
[12:15] <xtknight> i cant live without my precious IE
[12:15] <rocketronnie> luca: try glxgears in a terminal
[12:15] <justinellison> how can I tell if the server recognizes my nick as registered?
[12:15] <tsmithe> !man > toxicice (let's hope that factoid exists)
[12:15] <tsmithe> toxicice: man is your friend. every package should provide a manpage for every binary it provides
[12:15] <walkintome> szachista_: like, settings/preferences. i just had to do a clean install becasue i restart my session in the middle fo installing virtualbox and i couldnt fix it
[12:15] <Slart> xtknight: don't knock it.. running ie on a strange os it can't do anything to might actually be good.. who writes an IE virus for infecting linux machines =)
[12:15] <PurpZeY> Would instally Ubuntu to an external USB drive be any different than installing to an extra internal drive?
[12:16] <tsmithe> toxicice: so if you don't know how to use a program/command, just look up its manual with `man <command>`
[12:16] <slacs> server irc.undernet.org
[12:16] <szachista_> justinellison: most of the settings are stored in your home folder, eg /home/you
[12:16] <tsmithe> PurpZeY: wouldn't have thought so
[12:16] <stefg> PurpZeY: yes, because grub will look for its menu.lst on a drive that might not be present
[12:16] <PurpZeY> tsmithe: That mean you've experienced, or seen some problems with that type of install?
[12:16] <Alan> Stormx2, still does the same thing....
[12:16] <Alan> :(
[12:16] <oriez> how do i use Doom if i already install it on Windows?
[12:16] <szachista_> justinellison: just create seperate partition for your /home direcotry
[12:17] <tsmithe> PurpZeY: nope. just means i think i know :)
[12:17] <Taime1> is there a way to get rhythmbox to output the error right before it crashes? (as it has been doing frequently)
[12:17] <kahrytan> Slart: thanks for the help. Reccomend any desktop mics?
[12:17] <s7st3m_hul7> hey guyz..
[12:17] <s7st3m_hul7> can anyone help meout.
[12:17] <tsmithe> PurpZeY: i just guess that it would just work, as long as your computer supports booting from irc
[12:17] <drew> anyone know why ubuntu would freeze for at least a minute on bootup? very beggining of the splash screen progress bar?
[12:17] <tarelerulz> I download something and it is in exe and I don't want to install it I just want the file to where I can get at them
[12:17] <oriez> !doom
[12:17] <tsmithe> s7st3m_hul7: don't ask to ask. just ask. don't ask for help first. just ask :)
[12:17] <justinellison> szachista:  I think you've confused me with someone else
[12:17] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[12:17] <rocketronnie> Taime1: run it from a terminal?
[12:17] <PurpZeY> stefg: Ahhh...So, in other words, if the drive wasn't present it wouldn't just proceed to the XP drive...It will look for grub and get stuck?
[12:17] <s7st3m_hul7> I would like to know how i cna add rt2570 module to load at start up. auto load rausb0 deice ifup eyc..
[12:17] <szachista_> justinellison: err... sorry ;(
[12:18] <tsmithe> s7st3m_hul7: add the module name to /etc/modules
[12:18] <Slart> kahrytan: I've tried logitechs I think.. that was shit.. never seen a good desktop mic.. but perhaps you're luckier.. there are couple of brands that manufacture them
[12:18] <justinellison> szachista:  np, I just didn't what the intended recepient to miss it because it was addressed to me
[12:18] <Stormx2> Alan: maybe it is a soundcard problem or something, dunno
[12:18] <Alan> Stormx2, never had a problem before :(
[12:18] <Taime1> how do i tell rhythmbox to play a song in terminal?
[12:18] <Alan> Stormx2, unfortunately nothing logged either
[12:18] <AndyC1> !oops
[12:18] <Slart> kahrytan: it might just have been the one I bought that was broken..I didn't by another one =)
[12:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oops - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:18] <stefg> PurpZeY: grub will try to look on the (not present) sda1 for it's menu.lst, won't find it and throw error 17
[12:18] <Stormx2> Alan: I have to go now though... I have no idea what it might be.
[12:18] <mwe> s7st3m_hul7: to autoload a module a boot put the name in /etc/modules. sudo nano /etc/modules in at terminal
[12:18] <s7st3m_hul7> tsmithe, is this the same as loading it by modprobe rt2570
[12:19] <Alan> Stormx2, sure, thanks anyway
[12:19] <tsmithe> s7st3m_hul7: yes
[12:19] <kahrytan> Slart: you like headsets?
[12:19] <Crema10> Desktop Effects crashes my desktop on feisty... i'm assuming this is a known issue, any quick fixes for this?
[12:19] <Stormx2> Alan: night night.
[12:19] <PurpZeY> stefg: So, is that a difficult/impossible setup?
[12:19] <tsmithe> s7st3m_hul7: just put the "rt2570" into that file
[12:19] <s7st3m_hul7> Thank you guyz..
[12:19] <tsmithe> :)
[12:19] <s7st3m_hul7> ;)
[12:19] <xamox> anyone know why I can't load system->preferences->services.  It says configuration could not be loaded, this is for services, as well as "users and groups".
[12:19] <AndyC1> Crema10: video card, driver?
[12:19] <s7st3m_hul7> can anyone point me to good online guied on ubuntu first install setup
[12:20] <mwe> xamox: something missing from your install maybe?
[12:20] <Slart> kahrytan: it's what I use for voip, teamspeak etc..  last I used was a cosonic sb40... right now I'm on a plantronics headset.. it's working alright for me
[12:20] <mwe> xamox: check that you have the complete ubuntu-desktop package
[12:20] <Crema10> AndyC1: oh sorry, ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 (laptop), and the driver i was using with the previous ubuntu version was a generic one, i forget... i was using with beryl
[12:20] <kahrytan> Slart: Im not voip person so it doesnt matter
[12:20] <Slart> kahrytan: I've never used an USB headset... don't know if those work in linux yet..
[12:21] <AndyC1> Crema10: youll need to install the ati driver, preferably the open source one, if it isnt installed
[12:21] <Crema10> AndyC1: Beryl was working fine with 6.04 , but when i updated through the web, everything crashes... Desktop Effects and Beryl
[12:21] <AndyC1> !ati | Crema10
[12:21] <ubotu> Crema10: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:21] <andre> hey guys,  can anyone recommend a good site on how to install bugzilla on ubuntu?
[12:21] <kahrytan> Slart: Linux seems to have allot of problems with usb devices
[12:21] <stefg> PurpZeY: no, it just requires a separate partiton for grub, or not using grub at all to boot the USB-ubuntu. there might even be BIOS's that can boot from USB, so grub can be installed to the USB sticks MBR, because the hd's MBR is not looked at
[12:21] <mrec__> kahrytan: definitelly not
[12:21] <mwe> Crema10: you may get better help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:21] <xamox> mwe, it says it's installed. v1.4.3
[12:21] <kahrytan> mrec_ DSl Modems.
[12:21] <mrec__> kahrytan: ok :-)
[12:21] <Slart> kahrytan: or rather.. people making usb-stuff seem to be ignoring the linux users.. =)
[12:22] <mwe> xamox: I guess something else is wrong, then.
[12:22] <Crema10> ok great, thanks AndyC1 .. and i'll look in that channel mwe , thanks
[12:22] <kahrytan> Slart: That's nothing new :-P
[12:22] <walkintome> im using simple backup, and i just opened the program, but it wont let me save settings or do a backup.
[12:22] <xamox> mwe, yeah, but what?
[12:22] <PurpZeY> stefg: If my bios would support booting to USB How do I setup the ubuntu install properly?
[12:22] <mwe> xamox: I have no idea
[12:22] <AndyC1> np
[12:22] <kahrytan> mrec_ You try using dsl modem on usb with linux
[12:22] <rocketronnie> andre: i recommend reading the INSTALL file as part of the Bugzilla package
[12:22] <stefg> !install | PurpZeY
[12:22] <ubotu> PurpZeY: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[12:22] <delcoyote> hi all, how can i install xubuntu with acpi=force? boot: acpi=force? boot: linux acpi=force?
[12:23] <mrec__> kahrytan: no only usb tv/dvb-t tuner, and I wrote the drivers by myself
[12:23] <mwe> delcoyote: edit /boot/grub/menu.list
[12:23] <kahrytan> mrec_ I knew I should have gotten usb tv tuner.
[12:23] <Slart> delcoyote: the installer has some help for those switches
[12:23] <PurpZeY> stefg: No I mean, I know how to do the install itself, but is there some particular setup I need w/ the seperate grub partition or anything?
[12:23] <Slart> delcoyote: I don't know them by heart.. but there is probably documentation somewhere... sorry I can't be of more help
[12:23] <kahrytan> mrec_ If you can write drivers, try cracking the hvr-1600
[12:24] <delcoyote> no prob Slart
[12:24] <delcoyote> ill check it
[12:24] <andre> rocketronnie: INSTALL file?
[12:24] <Crema10> AndyC1: these instructions are for edgy, not feisty
[12:24] <rocketronnie> andre: theres a Bugzilla package that should make it easy to install
[12:24] <stefg> PurpZeY: that depends on your bios. You'll need the alternate install CD to determine where grub gets installed in the process. Desktop CD can't do that
[12:25] <rocketronnie> andre: sudo aptitude install bugzilla
[12:25] <walkintome> how do i get simpleback up to apply my personal settings and run a backup. i try to save/run a backup and nothing  happens
[12:25] <mrec__> kahrytan: http://www.hauppauge.com/pages/support/support_hvr1600.html
[12:25] <PurpZeY> stefg: got it, thanks.
[12:25] <Wicks> any idea when the new Madwifi 0.9.30.13 hal will be downloadable via apt? :E
[12:25] <mrec__> there's no reason to reverse that device it might even already be supported on linuxtv.org
[12:25] <andre> rocketronnie:  yes I'm aware... that's is what I need help on... it's having problems interacting with mysql
[12:25] <dj-fu> hey, uh, Trying to setup a chroot here- anyone know if I can tell apt-get to pretend that another directory is the root "/" directory?
[12:26] <mangojambo> hi... someone here have the vloopback module compiled ?
[12:26] <dj-fu> Basically something akin to gentoo's ROOT="/chroot/something" emerge -av something
[12:26] <kahrytan> mrec_ That's news to me. I think they got to many compliants.
[12:26] <rocketronnie> andre: you might want to try the #bugzilla channel
[12:27] <carlosfs> Hi. Does anyone can help me enable my notebooks webcam?
[12:27] <kahrytan> mrec_ Or they actually heard me when I said Linux pays their bills. (Mythtv users are avid fans)
[12:27] <mrec__> kahrytan: I'm a v4l-dvb developer people are just overloaded..
[12:27] <chatter_> hi i have squirrelmail on my server and cant display inbox, draft, sent etc works. it says i have >9000 mails. is this a problem?
[12:27] <mrec__> carlosfs: what webcam?
[12:27] <mangojambo> I d tried to compile vloopback, but I got these errors: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18489/
[12:28] <cafuego> dj-fu: 'dchroot' for an actual chroot, or debootstrap to set up a chroot to begin with.
[12:28] <stefg> PurpZeY: make sure to use tmpfs for /tmp and avoid a swap-partiton on the USB-disk... flash memory does not like to be written too often
[12:28] <andre> rocketronnie:  there's noone in #bugzilla :(
[12:28] <kahrytan> mrec_ then keep up the good work. Does Canonical hire driver writer/hackers.?
[12:28] <jmg> kahrytan: yes
[12:28] <kahrytan> jmg: they need more obviously
[12:28] <carlosfs> mrec__:  the manual does not show what is it.
[12:29] <jmg> kahrytan: buy a support contract
[12:29] <mangojambo> I want to use effectv in amsn webcam...
[12:29] <kahrytan> jmg: When it comes down to consumer price.
[12:29] <rocketronnie> andre: checked the config file for correct mysql connection settings?
[12:29] <mwe> mangojambo: it looks like broken/missing headers
[12:29] <mangojambo> it's realy funny !!
[12:29] <jmg> kahrytan: then start contributing
[12:29] <mangojambo> mwe: I don't know nothing about to compile!!
[12:30] <mangojambo> mwe: at least make and sudo make install ...
[12:30] <kahrytan> jmg: Yeah. I need a good "visual" c++ compiler
[12:30] <mwe> mangojambo: and I don't know anything about vloopback ;)
[12:30] <jmg> kahrytan: try kdevelop
[12:30] <fannagoganna> hi, has anyone gotten sshfs to work under Ubuntu Feisty?
[12:30] <kahrytan> jmg: Note the "VISUAL"
[12:30] <Pelo> evening folks
[12:30] <AndyC1> kahrytan: try kdevelop and eclipse
[12:30] <stefg> fannagoganna: me
[12:30] <vic2> guys, i downloaded ENVY(easy driver installation) and i installed the ATI driver, there is some imporevement in FPS in CS using cedega, BUT its STILL about 35-40, which is not good. WHY is this? Can anyone help me get more FPS PLEZe( BTW im running ATI Radeon 9200 SE ) and i always get 72 FPS at ALL times on CS on my windows with same resolution .
[12:30] <fannagoganna> how did you do it?
[12:30] <fannagoganna> stefg, how did you do it?
[12:30] <AndyC1> kahrytan: visual how? an ide?
[12:31] <jmg> kahrytan: it hooks in to qt designer
[12:31] <kane77> kahrytan, what do you mean by visual compiler??
[12:31] <mwe> mangojambo: is there a README file in there maybe?
[12:31] <kahrytan> No one gets the "VISUAL"  thing. Like RealBASIC but for C++
[12:31] <mwe> mangojambo: if so maybe it can give some clues
[12:31] <stefg> fannagoganna: sudo apt-get install openssh-server on both boxes
[12:31] <jmg> vic2: blame the poor ati support for that card
[12:31] <jmg> under linux
[12:31] <mangojambo> mwe: :) ... man, I was testing effectv and ... WOW ... it's realy realy funny!! I need to show this to my windows users friends!!!
[12:31] <jmg> they arent interested in updating the drivers for it
[12:31] <nullpuppy> so.. i've got a laptop here with an elantech touchpad that we want to disable to the tap feature on.  and google is turning up fairly useless.. any ideas?
[12:31] <fannagoganna> that's odd, why do you need a server in both places?
[12:32] <nullpuppy> running 7.04
[12:32] <Pelo> I have my /home on a seperate partition and I have setup another partiton on another drive to handle downloads,  it there a simple way I would bridge my those top partions so the act as one ?   ( my plan B is to make a bunch of symlinks to send stuff back and forth according to wether I intend to keep it or not )
[12:32] <jmg> kahrytan: stop using such childish toys and learn to cut some real code
[12:32] <AndyC1> kahrytan: we needed to have a clearer image of what vidual meant. to me, i thought you meant an ide as opposed to the command tools.
[12:32] <vic2> jmg, so are u saying there is now way i can improve my FPS???
[12:32] <AndyC1> *command line
[12:32] <kahrytan> jmg: Bite my glorious golden butt.
[12:32] <jmg> vic2: buy a better card
[12:32] <vic2> but why, CS runs fine with WinXP
[12:32] <jmg> !attitude | kahrytan
[12:32] <ubotu> kahrytan: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[12:32] <mangojambo> mwe: in the readme have instructions for debian based ... to use make-kpkg ... but it get errors too ...
[12:33] <jmg> vic2: i just explained to you, ATI have no interest in optimising their linux driver for anything older than 9600
[12:33] <kahrytan> right back at you
[12:33] <mwe> mangojambo: same kind of errors?
[12:33] <DimmuR> how can i login into live-cd?
[12:33] <kahrytan> jmg: You insulted me first
[12:33] <t3soro> you dont need to login to live-cd
[12:33] <vic2> so jmg, if i buy a lets say ati 9800 i will get 72 FPS, with better drivers??
[12:33] <Pelo> jmg kahrytan  take it to private this is a support channel
[12:33] <LjL> DimmuR: user "ubuntu", password blank.
[12:33] <mangojambo> mwe: no .. wait ... I will try again and post it ..
[12:33] <jmg> vic2: yes
[12:34] <vic2> jmg, but arent the drivers all the same>
[12:34] <jmg> vic2: but save yourself the trouble and get an nvidia
[12:34] <vic2> ?
[12:34] <mneptok> vic2: why are you obsessed with an arbitrary measurement like FPS?
[12:34] <jmg> vic2: no
[12:34] <zancik> People i have a problen can't  reed DVD5
[12:34] <jmg> mneptok: he's playing cs
[12:34] <mwe> mangojambo: I not sure I can be of much help but I'll look at it
[12:34] <jmg> mneptok: it makes a difference in gameplay
[12:34] <vic2> mneptok: bcz i wanna play Smoothly
[12:34] <mangojambo> mwe: the recomendeed package is kernel-package ...
[12:34] <vic2> BIG diference, especialy First person shooter games
[12:34] <jmg> zancik: did you install libdvdcss
[12:34] <mangojambo> mwe: ok, thanks ... wait a minute ..
[12:34] <mneptok> vic2: use Windows for gaming. you'll be happier.
[12:34] <t3soro> vic2: just stick to windows for gaming imo
[12:35] <DimmuR> LjL, thx i'll try this
[12:35] <mneptok> vic2: or, use a console like most Linux heads.
[12:35] <jmg> vic2: i used to get 99fps on my geforce4
[12:35] <vic2> HWO?!
[12:35] <jmg> geforce3 sorry
 a cant't find it
[12:35] <jmg> under cedega
[12:35] <vic2> jmg how?
[12:35] <kane77> how can I unzip file from console?
[12:35] <confrey> hi everrybody
[12:35] <orentet> just a question before upgrading to ubuntu, does it support motorola phone tools or anything that will let me connect my laptop to my phone?
[12:35] <michael117> My system will not boot but I'm able to access the hard drive contents now while running off a Suse livecd (because it has LVM support, and I am set up with LVM) and was wondering what files can I backup to have a list of programs installed?
[12:35] <vic2> i am using cedega too
[12:35] <jlulian38_> hey shit is plastic micro-wave safe?
[12:35] <t3soro> vic2: nvidia linux drivers > ati drivers
[12:35] <jmg> !dvd | zancik
[12:35] <ubotu> zancik: 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
[12:35] <andre> rocketronnie:  no it just won't install and complains that it can't find the bugzilla table
[12:36] <mneptok> !ohmy jlulian38
[12:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ohmy jlulian38 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:36] <pibarnas> Hi folks... does anybody know why GL system tray doesn't appear on the session initiate, I have to start it manually??
[12:36] <rbs-tito> !ohmy
[12:36] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:36] <vic2> guys, does nvidia support OPENGL??
[12:36] <mneptok> !ohmy > jlulian38
[12:36] <jmg> follow that link zancik
[12:36] <jlulian38_> It was a serious question D=
[12:36] <rbs-tito> !ohmy | jlulian38
[12:36] <ubotu> jlulian38: please see above
[12:36] <jlulian38_> I'm kinda not thinking >.>
[12:36] <orentet> can i connect my motorola phone to ubuntu?
[12:36] <jmg> jlulian38_: some plastic is but this is not the correct channel, try #plastic
[12:36] <LjL> people
[12:36] <vic2> guys, does nvidia support OPENGL??
[12:36] <confrey> I have a problem with wifi card; I can't associate the card to the ap, and iwconfig gives me the essid name 'truncated', without the last letter
[12:36] <jmg> vic2: sure does
[12:36] <confrey> any idea?
[12:36] <LjL> i've already gave him !ohmy and !offtopic in private. no need to do it like 10 times >:
[12:36] <rbs-tito> orentet: Most likely it will show up as a USB hard drive
[12:37] <LjL> when i kick someone, i give them the relevant factoids
[12:37] <jmg> jlulian38_: try #ubuntu-offtopic too
[12:37] <michael117> What files store what packages are installed? I'm trying to back some stuff up from a drive
[12:37] <kane77> how can I unzip multiple zip files from console?
[12:37] <orentet> how do i check to see if my motorola will be configued correctly?
[12:37] <vic2> so guys, do you recommend if i go right now and buy a Geforce card for 50 $$ and use that ? (more than 100 $ is NOT an option)
[12:37] <stefg> !backup | michael117
[12:37] <ubotu> michael117: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[12:37] <yeti> michael117: so you just want a list of packages you have installed?
[12:37] <jmg> for i in *.zip; do unzip $i; done
[12:38] <jmg> vic2: yeah thats a good plan
[12:38] <michael117> yeti: Yes, but I cannot boot from the drive, only read it
[12:38] <vic2> jmg, will XGL run too if i get an Nvidia?
[12:38] <yeti> michael117: can you chroot into it?
[12:38] <rbs-tito> vic2: Yes, on a GeForce
[12:38] <jmg> vic2: otherwise stick to windows
[12:39] <vic2> also, is it hard to install Nvidia drivers?
[12:39] <michael117> vic2: You can run AIGLX with nvidia cards which is actually native support and owns XGL by 10^millionth
[12:39] <jmg> !nvidia | vic2
[12:39] <ubotu> vic2: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:39] <rbs-tito> vic2: No, Ubuntu Feisty has a one click method, Nvidia have an installer script. Easy
[12:39] <rocketronnie> andre: I think the installer expects a mysql server to set up with root password, use the instructions here to get the mysql server set up: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_debian_lamp_server
[12:39] <vic2> GOOD, so its not like ATI and the 200 page thread on installing drivers???
[12:40] <rbs-tito> vic2: No, just drop to text only and run a script
[12:40] <rocketronnie> andre: then try installing the bugzilla package again
[12:40] <jlulian38_> I found a ceramic bowl anyway :P
[12:40] <jlulian38_> I know those are safe
[12:40] <mneptok> rbs-tito: the binary install from nVidia is not recommended. better to use packages.
[12:41] <michael117> yeti: Actually, I'm currently running of a Suse LiveDVD because it has LVM support. Can I still run synaptic and maybe export a list? Will the system crash if I try to chroot to it?
[12:41] <rbs-tito> mneptok: I wholeheartedly disagree
[12:41] <mneptok> rbs-tito: you're welcome to do so. you're still wrong. :)
[12:41] <TTT_Travis> Hi how can my standard users mount samba shares from the terminal?
[12:41] <dsnyders> Hi all!  Is there an equivalent to the no command?  ie no rm *.avi to delete all the non .avi files?
[12:41] <oriez> !driver
[12:41] <rbs-tito> mneptok: I've never had as good a result from packages, especially those awful ones in the repositries.
[12:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about driver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:41] <vic2> aight guys thx for the info, now i will have to go think if i wanna buy
[12:42] <yeti> michael117: open up a console and chroot /mnt/yourmountpont /bin/bash. i can't see why chrooting would crash anything, so try. then inside the chroot, run "dpkg -l > yourlistfile"
[12:42] <michael117> We can all agree though that any way of installing nvidia drivers is a hell of a lot easier than installing ati drivers
[12:42] <lobosque> how do i search for a file using a text inside of it instead its name?
[12:42] <oriez> !canon i250
[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about canon i250 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <yeti> michael117: then you'll have your list in "yourlistfile"
[12:42] <mneptok> rbs-tito: and my experience is exactly different, and probably evaluates a larger cross-section of Ubuntu users
[12:42] <michael117> yeti: How would I import it later if I wanted to?
[12:43] <vic2> baah, i think i am going to stick to windows, bcz there are no drivers for my mouse, i am having issues with sound too.
[12:43] <toxicice> any one who can take me step by step installing ati radeon xpress 200 m on ubuntu?
[12:43] <lobosque> how do i search for a file using a text inside of it instead its name?
[12:43] <yeti> michael117: oh. okay. you want something really handy.
[12:43] <rbs-tito> mneptok: Not so sure. Let's agree to differ and not call each other wrong.
[12:43] <mneptok> lobosque: cat ./* | grep text
[12:43] <finetuch> ohh i got here just in time i got a x300 radion pcie and my byrle wont work till i get the card installed
[12:43] <michael117> yeti: I'm not sure if I will even import it later, but just in case, you know...
[12:44] <TTT_Travis> Hi how can my standard users mount samba shares from the terminal?
[12:44] <TTT_Travis> smbmount requires root
[12:44] <mneptok> rbs-tito: except in this case i'm speaking from professional experience. not personal. no offense.
[12:44] <finetuch> anyone help?
[12:44] <lobosque> mneptok thanks
[12:45] <yeti> michael117: well, "dpkg -l | awk '{ print $2 }'" will give you just the package names, you could save that file and then later do: for blah in mypackage list; do apt-get install $blah; done
[12:45] <rbs-tito> mneptok: None taken, but you don't know my experience so I took the courtesy not to judge yours.
[12:45] <yeti> michael117: but that's definitely not very beautiful a solution (i like it though ;)
[12:45] <mneptok> rbs-tito: i know you don't sit next to me in Canonical's support office, so ...  ;)
[12:46] <michael117> yeti: Ahh... that's pretty clever, thanks

[12:48] <vic2> mneptok ahahha
[12:48] <rbs-tito> mneptok: I'm from Wales, Canonical is a bit far. I'm a Linux journalist and command 20+ Nvidia machines in a hotel. We both have differing experience, so lets leave it at that.
[12:48] <michael117> rbs-tito: No, I'd prefer if you two would continue to argue... :)
[12:48] <vic2> guys why does firefox RANDOMLY crash??
[12:48] <Shaezsche> how is VMWare for gaming?
[12:49] <mangojambo> mwe: what is the default source modules folder ?
[12:49] <michael117> vic2: Yeah... I have the same issue often times and have yet to find out
[12:49] <yeti> Shaezsche: probably unusable ;) for llinux gaming, it's either native linux games, cedega/wine or no games ;)
[12:49] <rbs-tito> michael117: I wouldn't, it's the reason I briefly left the Ubuntu community.
[12:49] <zancik> Who knows the best strategy game on Ubuntu?

[12:50] <mneptok> rbs-tito: the nVidia binary compiles a custom driver against the current kernel. this means that the driver will not be auto-updated, and hence break, with each new kernel we push. most users are not savvy enough to use the nv driver until they can recompile their binary blob. thus, in the large majority of cases, we have found it is better to point users at solutions that don't have a guaranteed breakpoint.
[12:50] <ElementalBelief> yeti: I wasn't in the room =P
[12:50] <Slart> vic2: I don't know if it crashes randomly.. but for me it's usually flash, some kind of weird movie, java.. flash or flash
[12:51] <zetsumei> this is weird
[12:51] <zetsumei> im trying to burn an iso and i put a blank dvd in to burn to
 who can I find it?
[12:51] <Hamm-lappy> can anyone help me before i format my hard drive and denounce all linux b.s.
[12:51] <zetsumei> and its saying to put a blank disc in
[12:51] <Hamm-lappy> i cannot write to my fat32 partition, nor can i change permissions
[12:51] <__mikem> May I please have some help getting my soundblaster to work on Fiesty?
[12:51] <mangojambo> /l
[12:51] <Slart> Hamm-lappy: sounds like you've already made up your mind
[12:51] <rbs-tito> zancik: It's a concept, not a game! I mean it is hard for us to say what you will enjoy. I'm playing Civ IV at the moment, not sure if it is "strategy"
[12:51] <vic2> guys, can some1 explain to me what is beryl?
[12:51] <Hamm-lappy> nope
[12:51] <Hamm-lappy> i want to use it
[12:51] <Hamm-lappy> but i cannot write to my large partition
[12:51] <jmg> Hamm-lappy: mount -o rw,umask=000 /dev/drive
[12:51] <__mikem> vic2 beryl is a window manager like metacity, only it has a lot of eyecandy, and it looks prety

[12:52] <StoneNote> Hamm-lappy, I suggest you use ubuntu instead of the LinuxBS distro. I hate that one too.
[12:52] <michael117> vic2: Does it crash on flash or under any particular circumstances? Mine seems to crash when I have like 50+ tabs open even though I have 1.5GB of RAM and use Beryl, but that shouldn't matter
[12:52] <Hamm-lappy> lolo
[12:52] <__mikem> StoneNote what do you mean LinuxBS distro?
[12:52] <vic2> michael117, ANY
[12:52] <Hamm-lappy> this is the new ubuntu

[12:53] <__mikem> Hey StoneNote, would you happen to know how to get my soundblaster to work in ubuntu fiesty
[12:53] <AmishWarlord> hul7: good luck.  It will be slow as sin at best.
[12:53] <rbs-tito> mneptok: I know that, I've spent time evaluating it as I was paid to write about it. HIgh horses aside, I still contest it gives better results. The packages don't even work on most of the cards I own.
[12:53] <StoneNote> Hamm-lappy, this might help you out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=153693
[12:54] <StoneNote> __mikem, probably not. I don't have a sound blaster.  and when I lose my sound, all I do is "sudo chmod 666 /dev/dsp" and it comes back
[12:54] <Hamm-lappy> thank you i'm going to go read now
[12:54] <Hamm-lappy> be back in a bit
 do you playing with codega?
[12:55] <Slart> __mikem: your soundblaster doesn't work? I thought those were almost automatic.. what kind of sound blaster?
[12:55] <mneptok> rbs-tito: it's not a high horse. it's a vantage point with a clearly superior view of the total landscape. i'm not more informed by some superior character trait, merely by circumstance.

[12:55] <MSTK> vic2 - what kind of files are you talking about?

 don't flood plz
[12:56] <vic2> like the program files

[12:56] <googlebar> hello, how do I setup jabber transfer with gaim?
[12:56] <rbs-tito> rbs-tito: I was criticising myself as I was starting to sound like a "Do you know who I am?" type ;)
[12:56] <Slart> __mikem: at least that's what I've heard... there might be some magic that can help you.. perhaps someone else is in the same situcation and knows more.. myself, I'm using an audigy2
[12:56] <MSTK> vic2 - you mean the actual firefox program?  what are you intending to overwrite them with?
[12:57] <vic2> MSTK: because firefox randomly crashes, i wanna reinstall its files
[12:58] <mneptok> rbs-tito: i didn't hear that at *all* in what you said. you worry needlessly. :)
[12:58] <MSTK> vic2 - oh, a reinstall.  Have you tried using Synaptics?
[12:58] <AmishWarlord> vic2 -- have you tried using a package manager to remove it?  apt-get/synaptic/adept(kubuntu), take 'yer pick.
[12:58] <Slart> vic2: there's a reinstall option in synaptic..
[12:59] <vic2> kk
[12:59] <vic2> ill check ut out
[12:59] <rbs-tito> mneptok: "I know that, I've spent time evaluating it as I was paid to write about it." It was borderline!
[12:59] <MSTK> vic2 - However if the problem is a personal setting, a plug-in, or an extension, I'm not sure if that'll fix it.  Correct me if I'm wrong.
[01:00] <orentet> regular ubuntu download can run live cd?

[01:01] <MSTK> orentet - what do you mean?
[01:01] <X-Hacker> I'll find out
[01:01] <myr> anyone know a good program for editing video? specifically .wmv if possible. kino is taking a long freakin time to import one
[01:01] <MSTK> myr - cinerella
[01:01] <duelboot> rbs-tito, just asking as Tito was a very famous Yugoslavic leader
[01:01] <myr> thx
[01:01] <MSTK> or however it's called.  I can't recall exactly.
[01:01] <MSTK> It's a very powerful video editing suite for Linux.
[01:01] <rbs-tito> MSTK: Cinelerra
[01:01] <Lunar_Lamp> !msn

[01:02] <Hamm-lappy> i just keep getting errors
[01:02] <pibarnas> I'm having troubles with gnome-compiz-preferences... its tray icon disappears on the next session, though it's checked on gconf... any ideas?
[01:02] <Slart> myr: I would be surprised if you'd find a good wmv-editing program for linux.. considering wmv is a microsoft format.. and not as open as one could wish
[01:02] <Hamm-lappy> i cannot unmount the volume either even when i'm logged into root via the terminal
[01:02] <myr> true
[01:02] <Dremth> I don't know if anyone here has used wireless on Windows, but there is a thing you can do called repair internet connection. It basically disables your wireless and then enables it, connects, and renews your ip. I was wondering if there was anything like that in Ubuntu? I often get disconnected from my wireless network in Ubuntu and I have to restart to get it to work again.
[01:02] <MSTK> rbs-tito - I've never actually tried it.  I'm basing my opinion off of my friend's opinions.  I was thinking of getting it myself, but I guess it's not as good as it's been hyped up to be?
[01:03] <ytseste1> hello there. is there any way to play back wmv files in feisty?
[01:03] <finetuch> radion driver help anyone?
[01:03] <MSTK> ytseste1 - you can try VLC media player, along with the right codecs.
[01:03] <USMarine> ytseste1 kaffeine
[01:03] <Lunar_Lamp> Dremth, I don't know how to do it from GUI, but from command line: "sudo ifdown DEVICE && sudo ifup DEVICE" to take down and bring up your wireless device, where DEVICE is something like "eth0" or "wlan1".
[01:03] <rbs-tito> MSTK: Nah, awful interface. Buggy as hell. There really is no good option.
[01:04] <finetuch> vlc has the codec
[01:04] <rbs-tito> MSTK: Jahshaka looks good, but I can't get it running
[01:04] <ytseste1> MSTK: VLC fails! i have installed just about every codec i found!
[01:04] <myr> rbs-tito: do you have any suggestions for a better app?
[01:04] <s7st3m_hul7>  so is there any way I at least can enable 3d accl on Intel Corporation 82810E DC-133 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller]  (rev 03)
[01:04] <ytseste1> USMarine: thanks, will try!
[01:04] <Dremth> Lunar_Lamp: Thanks! I'll just make a program
[01:04] <MSTK> finetuch - They usually do, but occasionally in Linux something won't be capatable.
[01:04] <s7st3m_hul7> because right now i can not even view screensaver
[01:04] <s7st3m_hul7> it crashes
[01:05] <dek> Hello
[01:05] <finetuch> trun im runnin 6.10 is smooth but i really need radion x300 drivers i miss byrle
[01:05] <mangojambo> Is the default source modules folder in feisty the /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic/drivers ?
[01:05] <finetuch> true*
[01:05] <Slart> s7st3m_hul7: I believe Intel is pretty good at releasing specs for their cards/chips.. so I'm guessing it would be possible
[01:06] <AmishWarlord> fine, edgy has fglrx drivers in multiverse, just enable the additional repositories and you should be able to install using synaptic.
[01:06] <Slart> s7st3m_hul7: I wouldn't know how though, since I'm not using one myself
[01:06] <s7st3m_hul7> Slart, ok Im a noob! anybody here have any idea.. plz ?
[01:06] <rbs-tito> myr: To be quite frank, Windows. -awaits torrent of abuse-
[01:06] <rbs-tito> myr: Even then you need to spend big money on a good suite
[01:06] <finetuch> ok im pretty new to linux that was almost greek to me
[01:06] <Slart> s7st3m_hul7: I'll have a look.. one sec
[01:06] <s7st3m_hul7> thank you
[01:07] <myr> rbs-tito: all i want to do is split the video into shorter ones
[01:07] <AmishWarlord> finetuch: check out this wiki page for details: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[01:07] <variant> mobutu: no, there is software available to do it
[01:08] <rbs-tito> myr: Cinelerra will even be a PITA for that. Maybe Kdenlive though
[01:08] <ksnipz> anyone know if there is a way to remove programs that had been installed by compiling from source?
[01:08] <AmishWarlord> ksnipiz: `make uninstall` works on some if you still have the sources.
[01:08] <Dremth> How could I make a file that would run a set of commands? I know how to write a C++ prog to do it but that seems a little excessive.
[01:08] <HymnToLife> ksnipz, you could try make uninstall
[01:08] <variant> ksnipz: normally if you cd to the sourcecode directory you installed from you can run make uninstall
[01:08] <chx> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2568206 this is hilarious (it's me who posted this)
[01:08] <rbs-tito> ksnipz: There should be an uninstall proceedure in the source code, like make uninstall.
[01:08] <finetuch> ty amish readin now
[01:08] <variant> ksnipz: not always avaiable though
[01:08] <HymnToLife> but checkinstall is a nice way to handle this
[01:08] <USMarine> Dremth learn shell script
[01:09] <ksnipz> cool thanks I'll take a quick look at it
[01:09] <myr> rbs-tito: well thanks for the advice, ill see what i can do
[01:09] <Dremth> USMarine: Where do I start?
[01:09] <LjL> Dremth, google "bash scripting howto". anyway, the guts of it is, make a text file, put  #!/bin/sh  in the first line, then type commands. lastly, make the file executable ( chmod +x filename ) and it's then just like a binary.
[01:09] <R3ddy> i need an itunes for linux.. or a way to transfer songs atleast.. any ideas?
[01:09] <ElementalBelief> anyone here play on MUDs? or better said managed to get kmuddy installed?
[01:09] <Slart> s7st3m_hul7: hmm...I found some forum posts claiming that the i810 can only do hardware accelerated 3d when you're using 16-bit color depth in X-windows
[01:09] <MSTK> r3ddy - there are some good iTunes alternatives on Linux.
[01:09] <Slart> http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/debian-linux-help/80136-i810-3d-acceleration-print.html
[01:10] <variant> R3ddy: gtkpod, amarok, etc
[01:10] <rbs-tito> R3ddy: The latest rhythymbox is very good and similar to itunes
[01:10] <USMarine> Dremth google is your friend
[01:10] <ksnipz> perfect thanks guys seemed to work
[01:10] <atarinox> hi...does somebody know why my wireless card is suddenly not recognized, after trying to enable roaming? I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling my driver in ndiswrapper, but it's still not showing up.
[01:10] <Dremth> USMarine: I know. I search most things on google but I didn't think searching shell script would help too much
[01:11] <MSTK> r3ddy - what OS are you transferring over from?  I can help you get your files and songs over.
[01:11] <USMarine> Dremth http://www.google.com/search?q=learn+shell+scripting&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[01:11] <s7st3m_hul7> Slart, thank you.. will go an read it up
[01:11] <R3ddy> mstk: ubuntu..
[01:11] <avis> how do i start the xscreensaver daemon ?
[01:12] <Slart> s7st3m_hul7: there are links to working configuration files for xorg on that webpage.. if you run into more problems just come back and ask again
[01:12] <MSTK> r3ddy - and your music files are all on Ubuntu?  Then what do you need to transfer to/from?
[01:12] <myr> avis: do you have xscreensaver installed?
[01:12] <avis> yes i do
[01:12] <Slart> s7st3m_hul7: it's a pretty common intel chip you have.. you're not the only one using it
[01:12] <confrey> I need help : I'm try to compile ndiswrapper, but while doing make install I have this error : make[3] : execvp: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-15-lowlatency/scripts/gcc-version.sh: Permission denied
[01:12] <R3ddy> i want my songs over to my ipod
[01:12] <avis> i dont have the nvidia kernel installed.  running feisty
[01:12] <rbs-tito> R3ddy: Rythymbox
[01:12] <AmishWarlord> confrey: are you running it as root(sudo)?
[01:12] <confrey> yes
[01:13] <BeRniTo> Hi!
[01:13] <Slart> R3ddy: amarok can do that too, I think
[01:13] <MSTK> r3ddy - most linux media players/libraries can transfer over to iPods.
[01:13] <rbs-tito> confrey: Why compile ndiswrapper
[01:13] <rbs-tito> Slart: I find Amarok to be rubbish at it, Rhythymbox is great.
[01:13] <R3ddy> ow
[01:13] <MSTK> if you want to do it manually, you can use gtkPod
[01:13] <K350> u need to onvert to AAC format-?
[01:13] <Slart> !xserver-xorg-video-i810
[01:13] <AmishWarlord> rbs -- in my case, the newer versions didn't work with my card/driver, so i did have to compile an older version.  Might be similar.
[01:13] <confrey> rbs-tito, I need a more recent version
[01:13] <R3ddy> rythmbox is already installed ^^
[01:13] <R3ddy> nvm then
[01:13] <myr> avis: if you put xscreensaver-demo into the terminal it will prompt you to start the daemon
[01:14] <Slart> rbs-tito: ah.. I haven't tried it myself... I'm not in the ipod-owners club yet =)
[01:14] <BeRniTo> Does anybody know what the + symbol means in the list of Usplashes when doing "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so"?
[01:14] <rbs-tito> confrey: You can probably fetch a deb somewhere. Did you run as root
[01:14] <AmishWarlord> confrey, is the gcc-version.sh executable?  if not, try chmod +x and try again.
[01:14] <avis> ok i tried that but i dont get any graphics rendering
[01:14] <MSTK> r3ddy - good luck finding a good solution to video transfer, though.  I've yet to find one that assimilates into a media player like rhythmbox.
[01:14] <rbs-tito> Slart: GTKpod is amazng, but with an ugly complex interface. Rhythymbox is not so feature packed, but does the job perfectly
[01:14] <myr> avis: sounds like a graphics problem then
[01:15] <MSTK> speaking of which, is there a good solution to a media player that can transfer video files to the Video iPod?
[01:15] <MSTK> it's currently the only reason why I boot onto WIndows every once in a while.
[01:15] <rbs-tito> MSTK: Just drag them in like you would a removable disk
[01:15] <Slart> rbs-tito: I tried rythmbox some time ago.. can't remember what I didn't like about it... I only wish amarok was a bit snappier with sorting my song list.. filtering etc..
[01:15] <avis> would i need to install nvidia kernel for xscreensaver to work ?  i've got a geforce 7100 i think it is
[01:15] <Slart> !810
[01:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 810 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:15] <MSTK> rbs-tito - That works, but I'm looking for an auto-sync solution similar to what rhythmbox or iTunes does for music.
[01:16] <gonazalo> hola
[01:16] <CaT[tm] > going backwards in time is this the distro order of ubuntu? hoary,feisty,edgy,dapper,breezy
[01:16] <Slart> avis: for the 3d screensavers that would be recommended
[01:16] <myr> avis: sorry i don't know anything about that :[
[01:16] <avis> thank you
[01:16] <Slart> avis: but for the simple ones you shouldn't.. it won't be as fast and it won't be as pretty.. but it should work
[01:16] <MSTK> CaT[tm]  - That's interesting.  Did they skip C and G?
[01:16] <R3ddy> mstk: i have an ipod mini :)
[01:17] <MSTK> I never noticed that before.
[01:17] <R3ddy> videos doesnt matter
[01:17] <CaT[tm] > mstk: and a. :)
[01:17] <MSTK> r3ddy - oh, then you should be fine then.
[01:17] <rbs-tito> MSTK: Probably won't happen, we don't have a video jukebox app yet. I can't see the point in them, but it probably won't be implemented until rhythymbox etc. keep video catalogues.
[01:17] <CaT[tm] > athletic antelope would've been a nice release ;)
[01:17] <rbs-tito> R3ddy: I'm an iPod Mini user too. I installed rockbox on mine so I can play oggs
[01:17] <jlulian38_> rythmbox lags my computer
[01:17] <jlulian38_> and amarok skips :'(
[01:18] <ElementalBelief> rbs-tito: whats rockbox?
[01:18] <jlulian38_> *crai*
[01:18] <confrey> AmishWarlord, thanks, now it works, but there is another errror again... can I find a .deb of ndiswrapper version 1.7 or higher?
[01:18] <R3ddy> im sure my fellow-norwegian, jon lech johansen, could come up with a solution though :)
[01:18] <Slart> Cat: I think it's gutsy, feisty, edgy, dapper.. the last ones I don't know
[01:18] <rbs-tito> ElementalBelief: An open source OS for iPods
[01:18] <MSTK> ELementalBelief - iPod Linux OS
[01:18] <AmishWarlord> Cat: should be hoary/breezy/dapper/edgy/feisty oldest to newest
[01:18] <Slart> CaT[tm] : but there's info about the names, origin, why etc on their site.. or on the wiki.. can't remember.. but I've read them
[01:18] <MSTK> AmishWarlord - you mean newest to oldest, right?
[01:18] <myr> warty warthog!
[01:18] <ElementalBelief> hmm interesting
[01:18] <rbs-tito> I don't think rockbox is Linux, there is iPod Linux but it is crap. Rockbox is cool.
[01:18] <CaT[tm] > amish: ah. hoary was first was it?
[01:18] <MSTK> Amish - never mind.
[01:19] <MSTK> my math isn't in tip top shape.
[01:19] <spork> I'm trying to setup a webdav folder connection under places > connect to server, which seems to go fine, but when I try to open the folder it puts on my desktop, I get an error that says firefox doesn't understand the dav protocol.  Is there a way to set a different program, without making another browser my default browser?
[01:19] <Flannel> AmishWarlord, CaT[tm] , warty was before breezy
[01:19] <neozen> meep
[01:19] <Flannel> AmishWarlord, CaT[tm] , er before hoary too, for that matter.
[01:19] <AmishWarlord> Cat: it looks like.  I started in the dapper days, but google shows people upgrading from hoary to breezy :)
[01:19] <MSTK> I'm an Edgy Convert here :)
[01:19] <imakos> just an update, I now have Voice chat ability and Webcam ability in Yahoo chat using Gyache chat client. I think the Head phones helped
[01:19] <CaT[tm] > flannel/amish: ah. ok. thanks muchly :)
[01:20] <ElementalBelief> does ubuntu block any ports out of the box?
[01:20] <Flannel> ElementalBelief: no.  But it has nothing listening either.
[01:21] <neozen> !gyache
[01:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gyache - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:23] <Dremth> Is there a way to "de-sudo"?
[01:23] <Dremth> Like, logout
[01:23] <cafuego> !pt
[01:23] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[01:23] <cheatersrealm> I did the edgy->feisty upgrade, and /dev/md2 appears to be no longer with me.  anyone know a way to recreate the /dev/md2 device?
[01:23] <AmishWarlord> Gohal, there are many.  synaptic should offer you a list of possible mirrors in feisty(adept does in kubuntu, anyway).  In my case, I found one that saturates my connection, which is good enough for me.
[01:23] <vic2> ok guys, WHAT is compiz, beryl, xgl, aiglx ??? I do not undestand these things.>!>!
[01:23] <paulinho> vlw
[01:23] <MSTK> Dremth - disable superuser in command prompt?
[01:23] <avis> i just type exit
[01:24] <MSTK> ^^ yeah, taht should do it
[01:24] <Dremth> MSTK: no, just sort-of, logout of sudo. So that the next command that uses sudo asks for a password.
[01:24] <cheatersrealm> vic2: http://www.beryl-project.org
[01:24] <MSTK> Dremth - "exit" should work
[01:24] <Dremth> beryl pwns
[01:24] <Dremth> ok
[01:24] <Flannel> vic2: They're two different things.  (beryl/compiz) and (xgl/aiglx).  You'd probably get the most cohesive explanation in #ubuntu-effects, although wikipedia has good articles on themtoo
[01:24] <crabgrass> anyone ever had problems withe file permissions getting randomly changed when you switch files between installs?
[01:24] <Dremth> MSTK: ok
[01:25] <vic2> so which one is the BEST VISUAL KILLER ?
[01:25] <alex__> I just installed Ubuntu 7, I've got and nvidia6100 video card, installed the propietary nvidia drivers from synaptic. Then I restarted and the only display resolutions available are 320x240 and 640x480 :S I think there was a link about this subject
[01:25] <Dremth> MSTK: Using exit just logs me out of the terminal and when I go back and use a sudo command it doesnt ask me for the sudo password like I want it to
[01:25] <MSTK> vic2 - I personally use Beryl over Compiz, if that's what you mean.
[01:26] <fall-en> anyone know of a good program to transfer mp3's to my mp3 player with?
[01:26] <crabgrass> anyone ever had problems withe file permissions getting randomly changed when you switch files between installs?
[01:26] <Flannel> Dremth: `sudo -k` will reset your timestamp
[01:26] <vic2> bcz i wanna install one of them, i wanna know which one has the most killer visual effects?
[01:26] <cheatersrealm> I did the edgy->feisty upgrade, and /dev/md2 appears to be no longer with me.  anyone know a way to recreate the /dev/md2 device?
[01:27] <MSTK> Dremth - "exit" will quit you out of superuser mode.  But flannel should be right in regards to what you want.  'sudo -k'
[01:27] <imakos> <== has had theExperience
[01:27] <finetuch> AMISH YOU STILL THERE
[01:27] <LjL> !caps
[01:27] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[01:27] <finetuch> srry
[01:28] <imakos> when you Log in using password for sudo.. you only need it once until youreboot
[01:28] <AmishWarlord> finetuch: sorry.  1.7?  afaik, ndiswrapper doesn't go that high.
[01:28] <LjL> imakos: no. it times out after 15 minutes
[01:28] <MSTK> imakos - true, but he wants to disable that.
[01:28] <Flannel> imakos: no, that's not true.  There's a (configurable) timeout.
[01:28] <imakos> Cool to know
[01:28] <imakos> ty
[01:28] <luca> hi everyone
[01:28] <MSTK> hi
[01:28] <orentet> guys i need help, i just tried ubuntu for the first time, when i rebooted to use livecd or whatever it says on blue screen it cant load graphical interface and something about x server or whatever
[01:28] <AmishWarlord> cheaters, might be too obvious: makedev /dev/md2 ?
[01:28] <finetuch> yea just found that out lol
[01:28] <luca> does anyone know how to enable xgl with the nvidia-glx-new driver?
[01:29] <Flannel> Dremth: hmm.  You might be interested in tweaking the timeout setting.  You can probably disable the caching all together, or at least set it to a tiny amount of time.
[01:29] <Dremth> Flannel, MSTK: Thanks again
[01:29] <LjL> !xgl > luca    (luca, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:29] <imakos> this is very educational in here
[01:29] <orentet> guys i need help, i just tried ubuntu for the first time, when i rebooted to use livecd or whatever it says on blue screen it cant load graphical interface and something about x server or whatever, does anyone experienced this or can help me?
[01:29] <MSTK> Flannel - I'm interested now.  How would you do that?
[01:29] <Dremth> Flannel: I just wanted it to ask me so I could test something
[01:29] <Dremth> Flannel: just this one time
[01:30] <luca> thanks LjL :)
[01:30] <orentet> i think i just gave up ubuntu for vista
[01:30] <neozen> ...............
[01:30] <vic2> GUYS, what has the most visual and cool looking effects of all??? Beryl, compiz, xgl, or aiglx???
[01:30] <neozen> might I ask why?
[01:30] <MSTK> imakos - tell me about it.  just watching the chat can teach you a lot.
[01:30] <Dremth> the only reason I have vista is for games
[01:30] <MSTK> vic2 - IMO, Beryl.
[01:30] <orentet> guys i need help, i just tried ubuntu for the first time, when i rebooted to use livecd or whatever it says on blue screen it cant load graphical interface and something about x server or whatever, does anyone experienced this or can help me?
[01:30] <LjL> vic2: ask in #ubuntu-effects.
[01:30] <imakos> I gave up vista for Ubuntu 7.04
[01:30] <AmishWarlord> orentet: we need a little more information.  What is the actual error?  look at the output.
[01:30] <vic2> kk
[01:30] <orentet> hmm
[01:30] <AmishWarlord> What's vista? (j/k)
[01:30] <orentet> it is all blue screen and stuff
[01:30] <MSTK> vic2 - but you'll find some people arguing religiously for both sides.
[01:30] <neozen> !best
[01:30] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[01:30] <imakos> lol
[01:31] <imakos> winbloz os
[01:31] <MSTK> Hah.  Whenever my friends go, "Use Vista!  The effects are awesome!"
[01:31] <MSTK> I just show them Beryl
[01:31] <luca> ok, does anyone know how to enable the glx_ext etc feature? :)
[01:31] <MSTK> and they shut up.
[01:31] <SeveredCross> orentet: ATI graphics card?
[01:31] <bur[n] er> luca: what kind of video card?
[01:31] <luca> 'cause right now it does not appear in the xorg file nor does glx function :)
[01:31] <slvmchn> is there a way to change the desktop resolution in a bash script
[01:31] <orentet> yes
[01:31] <orentet> !
[01:31] <SeveredCross> Okay.
[01:31] <slvmchn> i have a script to launch a program but i like to lower the resolution when i run it
[01:31] <luca> nvidia 7300 with nvidia-glx-new driver
[01:32] <SeveredCross> orentet: Does it drop you to the commandline after telling you the x server can't start?
[01:32] <orentet> its a laptop
[01:32] <bur[n] er> luca: that's all I needed... try to run beryl-manager
[01:32] <finetuch> i think vista is just like anyother win os buggy at first n then junk,resourc hawg
[01:32] <orentet> yes
[01:32] <orentet> exactly
[01:32] <SeveredCross> Okay.
[01:32] <SeveredCross> Do you have networking?
[01:32] <orentet> ye
[01:32] <SeveredCross> Okay.
[01:32] <Flannel> MSTK: you'd edit the config, and setting timestamp_timeout to zero means you have no memory, and a negative number means you have infinite.
[01:32] <luca> xgl functions with nvidia-glx, but suspend does not, so I installed nvidia-glx-new
[01:32] <SeveredCross> First, you'll need to enable multiverse and universe.
[01:32] <MSTK> Flannel - thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
[01:32] <orentet> how do i do that
[01:32] <orentet> sorry for being noob
[01:33] <SeveredCross> !repos orentet
[01:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repos orentet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:33] <orentet> im new to the world of linux
[01:33] <SeveredCross> Er.
[01:33] <SeveredCross> !repos | orentet
[01:33] <ubotu> orentet: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[01:33] <SeveredCross> Crap.
[01:33] <MSTK> orentet - heh.  don't apologize.  We all were at one point/
[01:33] <SeveredCross> That didn't help.
[01:33] <bur[n] er> luca: don't use XGL!?!?!?
[01:33] <bur[n] er> !nvidia > luca
[01:33] <Flannel> !enter | orentet
[01:33] <finetuch> amish dose ubuntu 6.10 support what i need in gedit
[01:33] <ubotu> orentet: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:33] <luca> bur[n] er no it does not :( the error is: beryl: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32
[01:33] <Flannel> orentet, that's what SeveredCross, meant
[01:33] <DanaG> oh hey, there was a recent BIOS update for my system,
[01:33] <bur[n] er> luca: you sure you're using hte nvidia driver?  see the nvidia logo when X starts?
[01:33] <DanaG> and part of the changelog is "changed audio verbs"
[01:34] <SeveredCross> orentet:  Okay, first open the sources.list by typing sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:34] <SeveredCross> At the commandline.
[01:34] <SeveredCross> Then look for a line similar to this one:
[01:34] <SeveredCross> # deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe multiverse
[01:34] <SeveredCross> (Except it'll say feisty and not dapper)
[01:34] <SeveredCross> You'll want to remove the # in front of it.
[01:34] <luca> bur[n] er I installed the driver downloaded directly from the nvidia site, and before I used the package nvidia-glx-new
[01:34] <SeveredCross> Then save the file and exit nano. (Ctrl-X)
[01:34] <Alan> or you could use the repo manager in synaptic...
[01:34] <luca> both give the same result
[01:34] <Alan> and enable it
[01:34] <SeveredCross> ALan: He can't boot X.
[01:34] <SeveredCross> *start X.
[01:34] <Alan> oooh
[01:34] <Alan> sorry Seveas
[01:34] <Alan> erm
[01:34] <bur[n] er> luca: so are you actually using it?  just cause you downloaded it, doesn't mean it's in use
[01:34] <SeveredCross> Anyway
[01:34] <orentet> severed cross can i talk to you in private?
[01:34] <Alan> SeveredCross, - thats what i get for not reading
[01:35] <SeveredCross> orentet: I'd rather not, I'm not fond of PM's.
[01:35] <julian__> anyone upgraded to kernel 2.6.20
[01:35] <slvmchn> is there a way to change the desktop resolution in a bash script
[01:35] <SeveredCross> All the text flying by too much for you?
[01:35] <luca> bur[n] er yeah I am positive, installed and functioning :)
[01:35] <SeveredCross> julian__: Feisty uses it, it's fine.
[01:35] <dade> hi everybody... is it possible that on a 500GB partition i lose 50 gb formatting it in ext3?
[01:35] <DanaG> "Change audio verb table for Vista DTM test.	"
[01:35] <julian__> i meant 2.6.21
[01:35] <julian__> sorry
[01:35] <SeveredCross> orentet: Let me type up the instructions and pastebin them.
[01:35] <orentet> thats what i have to do?
[01:35] <DanaG> oh wait, that as already there in an old update.
[01:35] <orentet> thanks
[01:35] <SeveredCross> orentet: It's a rather involved process.
[01:35] <orentet> why does it have to be like that?
[01:36] <SeveredCross> You need to enable universe and multiverse.
[01:36] <SeveredCross> Then
[01:36] <SeveredCross> Issue the following commands:
[01:36] <SeveredCross> sudo apt-get update
[01:36] <SeveredCross> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[01:36] <Slart> dade: I don't think you'd lose that much.. but are you sure it's 50Gb? and not 50000 Mb?
[01:36] <finetuch> is this ati or nvid?
[01:36] <SeveredCross> finetuch: orentet's got ATI.
[01:36] <orentet> ati
[01:36] <SeveredCross> orentet;
[01:36] <finetuch> so do i
[01:36] <SeveredCross> sudo apt-get update
[01:36] <SeveredCross> sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) #Okay if it is already installed
[01:36] <SeveredCross> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[01:36] <SeveredCross> sudo depmod -a
[01:36] <SeveredCross> That's what you need to do.
[01:37] <Slart> dade: hard drive manufacturers are really bad a math =) to their financial advantage of course =)
[01:37] <SeveredCross> After you've edited your sources.list to include the multiverse and universe repos.
[01:37] <T`2> anyone here know how to fix broken time on ubuntu? my clock is 1hr behind and no idea how to make it right
[01:37] <orentet> wait a second
[01:37] <orentet> i lost you
[01:37] <dade> Slart: yep, this is my df output:
[01:37] <SeveredCross> orentet: Let me type it up and pastebin it.
[01:37] <orentet> when do i need to press all the commands and whats the connection with sources.list
[01:37] <SeveredCross> So you can follow.
[01:37] <orentet> ok
[01:37] <dade> "/dev/md1             480726864    202792 480524072   1% /mnt/raid"
[01:38] <orentet> hard reading instructions here
[01:38] <tyler_> how do i see what version of ubuntu i'm running? i think my install cd was 6.06
[01:38] <tyler_> in the terminal that is
[01:38] <slvmchn> how do i use beryl? i installed it via synaptic but it doesn't show up in the login screen (like fluxbox, kde, gnome etc.) and i can't figure out how to run it
[01:38] <dade> Slart: /dev/md1              459G  199M  459G   1% /mnt/raid
[01:38] <Bitmess> In fstab how can I mount NTFS partition as read/write?
[01:39] <AmishWarlord> there are a few ways... easiest might just be `cat /etc/apt/sources.list` and see what name it mentions... dapper/edgy/feisty
[01:39] <sharms> tyler_: lsb_release -rc
[01:39] <tyler_> thanks
[01:39] <dstaley> While Installing Ubuntu, I get a "Partman failed with exit code 10" error while starting the partitioner, and it will not let me continue.
[01:39] <bodhi_zazen> Bitmess, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=337970
[01:39] <dstaley> I've never seen this anywhere befre
[01:39] <finetuch> cross, can you send me that also?
[01:39] <dade> Slart: and this is what mdadm --detail gives me

[01:40] <Bitmess> bodhi_zazen,  thanks
[01:40] <bodhi_zazen> :)
[01:40] <Slart> dade: 500 000 000 000 bytes equals about 476 Gb .. but you're still missing a couple of gigs..
[01:40] <gregorovius> how can I set my fstab so a user can unmount a ntfs-3g partition?
[01:40] <dade> Slart: yes how come?
[01:41] <Slart> dade: might be formatting issues.. or something else.. don't know
[01:41] <sheesha> hey all :) wanna buy a new hd(400 gb) but i think my mainboard, bios is too old (about 6 years), no updates. is it possible to mount the hd?
[01:41] <finetuch> Amish,i got an error saying thatAuthentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[01:41] <bobbob1016> sheesha, internal or external?

[01:42] <fall-en> does anyone know of a good program for transfering mp3s to an mp3 player?
[01:42] <guzzlefry> has anyone here gotten the Java plugin to work with Firefox on the liveCD?
[01:42] <AmishWarlord> finetuch: trying to do what?
[01:42] <Slart> dade: sorry.. I made an error.. you should get about 465 Gb from a 500Gb drive.. if they are still that bad at math
[01:42] <bobbob1016> sheesha, it probably won't work, unless you use the limiter jumper, it isn't an ubuntu problem, it's a hardware issue
[01:42] <finetuch> install ati drivers
[01:43] <bobbob1016> sheesha, you could buy a PCI-IDE card, that might work
[01:43] <Slart> dade: they count 1000 bytes to a kilobyte.. the computer counts 1024 bytes to a kilobyte.. the difference adds up
[01:43] <sheesha> bobbob1016 k thx
[01:43] <dade> Slart: do they really do that?
[01:43] <bobbob1016> sheesha, PCI-IDE means it turns one of your computer's card slots into a hard drive slot
[01:43] <finetuch> Amish ;i read that fourm and did what it said and got that
[01:43] <Slart> dade: yes.. as far as I know
[01:43] <enjoi> hello, does anyone know anything about oidentd, ive got trouble making it work on my server
[01:43] <AmishWarlord> what step did it happen at?
[01:43] <Slart> dade: it's usually in the fine print on the hard drive.. or at their site
[01:43] <bobbob1016> sheesha, a lot of bioses harddrive limits can be skipped this way
[01:43] <finetuch> 1 sec i got to look
[01:44] <dade> Slart: ok i'm gonna check it out
[01:44] <Bitmess> bodhi_zazen, Got it, thanks

[01:45] <finetuch> amish :gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.con
[01:45] <Bitmess> is there a windows decoration that has transparent title bars without desktop effects?
[01:45] <bobbob1016> sheesha, no, the limiter jumpers are for the bios, they limit the drive to be a certain size, I think 132 or something like that
[01:46] <AmishWarlord> _hul7: it's a bad idea to disable loopback.  It will cause weird issues.
[01:46] <Slart> Bitmess: I don't think you can get transparency without either beryl/compiz or some other composite thingy
[01:46] <AmishWarlord> finetuch: then it sounds like you entered the wrong password.  Try sudo instead of gksudo.
[01:46] <s7st3m_hul7> how doi enable it plz cuz i delet teh enrty dont know what it is now
[01:46] <bobbob1016> sheesha, you could also buy a drive enclosure http://www.compusa.com/products/products.asp?N=0&Ntt=drive%20enclosure&Ntk=All&Nty=1&D=drive%20enclosure&Dx=mode%20matchall for $30, and put the drive in that

[01:47] <finetuch> well could the fourm be wrong?
[01:47] <Whtiger> Hey, http://rafb.net/p/NGn6du57.html <-- why is that resolving to that? I'd kind of like that to have a 100% packet loss instead of some random place. =)
[01:47] <foxiness> is there ""oracle developer" on ubuntu ?
[01:47] <SeveredCross> The instructions there are fairly detailed and should work okay.
[01:47] <abraxas_> hullo
[01:47] <orentet> thanks
[01:47] <bobbob1016> sheesha, the drive enclosure turns an internal drive into external drive
[01:47] <finetuch> im not trin to diss your help this is confusing but i think itl be worth learnin
[01:47] <Bitmess> Slart, thanks, I gave up on Beryl/compiz. I have an ATI and it's not working out for me
[01:47] <abraxas_> i'm having trouble getting SSH working...are there any "remote access disabled by default" features I gotta deal with?
[01:48] <bobbob1016> anyone know how to get iTunes 7 shares in Rhythmbox?
[01:48] <SeveredCross> You can't bobbob1016.
[01:48] <dade> bobbob1016: it does not work yet
[01:48] <sheesha> bobbob1016 thank you very much. i think ill save for a new pc or buy me a pci-ide card ;)
[01:48] <enjoi> F'abraxas_: normally it is just sudo apt-get install ssh
[01:49] <SeveredCross> Apple broke the compatibility with iTunes 7 just to stop Rhythmbox and Banshee from accessing iTunes shares.
[01:49] <abraxas_> when I type: ssh user@localhost it works fine...when i use my IP address, it fails....and the routing -seems- correct

[01:49] <abraxas_> I'm trying to find out for -sure- whether it's the router being screwy or my system, but i can't seem to trace where the ssh request lands...it claims to hit my router's IP addy no matter what

[01:50] <bobbob1016> sheesha, the drive enclosure might be best, it is USB, and would work with all 400gig
[01:50] <SeveredCross> orentet: Are you able to follow those isntructions?
[01:50] <SeveredCross> s/isntructions/instructions.
[01:50] <dade> Slart: thanks i'm reading that... you think that's the problem i have?
[01:51] <sheesha> bobbob1016 ive already got a extern hd ;)
[01:51] <orentet> yes
[01:51] <kahrytan> slart: I got a headset w/ mic. And I can record.
[01:51] <foxiness> is there "oracle developer" on ubuntu ?
[01:51] <vbabiy> hey  guys has any one had a problem connecting to WPA networks with ndiswraper
[01:51] <SeveredCross> foxiness: What/
[01:51] <sheesha> bobbob1016 ide would be faster wouldnt it
[01:51] <Slart> dade: it's not really a problem.. it's just that you've bought a drive that holds 500 000 000 000 bytes.. not 500 Gb =)
[01:51] <foxiness> SeveredCross: oracle developer
[01:51] <SeveredCross> Um, is that a piece of software?
[01:51] <Slart> kahrytan: that was fast.. so the mic was broken?
[01:51] <SeveredCross> Is it a person?
[01:51] <SeveredCross> What are you asking for?
[01:51] <SeveredCross> Make yourself clear man.
[01:52] <SeveredCross> Slart: Well.
[01:52] <kahrytan> Slart: The wire was breaking.
[01:52] <bobbob1016> sheesha, if you don't have USB2
[01:52] <SeveredCross> 500 Gb != 500 GiB.
[01:52] <SeveredCross> When computers talk about Gb, it's GiB really.
[01:52] <kahrytan> Slart: and compusa is around the corner.
[01:52] <dade> Slart: yes :) I was just getting sure i did not have to reformat again
[01:52] <jmg> Gigs in Black
[01:52] <sheesha> bobbob1016 i dont have *kicks his pc*
[01:52] <Slart> SeveredCross: yes.. sorry.. you're right
[01:52] <SeveredCross> :)
[01:52] <SeveredCross> So he did buy a 500 GB drive, just not a 500 GiB drive which is what you'd expect.
[01:53] <idefixx> SeveredCross: When hd manufactures talk about gb it gib!
[01:53] <SeveredCross> Nope.
[01:53] <SeveredCross> They talk about GB--1000's of bytes
[01:53] <Slart> kahrytan: ah.. nice to hear it's working
[01:53] <SeveredCross> When computers talk about size, it's GiB--1024's of bytes.
[01:53] <kahrytan> Now I just want to tie recordmydesktop into audio
[01:53] <serenity> i want to upgrade to 7.04, but it tells me "authentication failed"
[01:53] <kahrytan> Slart: What does hw:0,0 mean?
[01:53] <serenity> how do i fix this?
[01:53] <SeveredCross> But all computers PRINT GB anyway for legacy reasons.
[01:53] <dade> Severedcross: isn't it the other way? GiB 1000s and GB 1024s?
[01:53] <SeveredCross> Nope.
[01:53] <jmg> nah
[01:54] <jmg> GiB is 1024s
[01:54] <abraxas_> so -IS- there a way to tell if the ssh request is hitting my router or my system? it DOES ask for a password, which makes me think it's hitting an SSH server
[01:54] <SeveredCross> GiB == gibibyte. They use the 'bi' to indicate binary.
[01:54] <Slart> kahrytan: hw:0,0 means the first device on your first soundcard..
[01:54] <bobbob1016> sheesha, if you have the drive already, it might make sense to put the $30 for the enclosure
[01:54] <abraxas_> but if the router has one and steals ALL ssh requests.....i know that seems weird
[01:54] <Slart> kahrytan: it's how alsa names your sound devices..
[01:54] <bobbob1016> sheesha, that way you have it working at some capacity until you get the new PC
[01:54] <dade> Severedcross: now i'll remember it!
[01:54] <abraxas_> i came here cuz I use ubuntu, but if there's a more appropriate channel where someone might have suggestions?
[01:54] <sheesha> bobbob1016 no i just thought about buying it
[01:54] <kahrytan> Slart: Which one is which?
[01:54] <jmg> abraxas_: change the router's ssh ports to another port, or learn how to auth to it and then shell in
[01:54] <foxiness> SeveredCross: oh its a miss sorry
[01:54] <jmg> abraxas_: #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:55] <s7st3m_hul7> How do I set the time using terminal command ?
[01:55] <bobbob1016> sheesha, oh, ok, then wait until you get a new PC
[01:55] <jmg> s7st3m_hul7: date
[01:55] <abraxas_> jmg: did that, still had it ask for a password...still gave the right passwords..still got auth errors....and i'm not certain this isn't a topic related to ubuntu yet
[01:55] <kahrytan> slart: and How do i figure the names?
[01:55] <sheesha> bobbob1016 yes xD thanks
[01:55] <AmishWarlord> abraxas -- it made it.  If the router was rejecting it, or the packets were being routed to lake erie, you wouldn't get that far.
[01:55] <jmg> abraxas_: do you see any connections in auth.log, also tcpdump on the ubuntu machine and see if anything is connecting
[01:56] <Slart> kahrytan: there is a file  /proc/asound/cards that has the names of your cards.. you can do "cat /proc/asound/cards" to see it
[01:56] <vbabiy> !wpa
[01:56] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:56] <dade> slart: thanks for making me ralize my3 hd are kinda crap :)
[01:56] <jmg> and also telnet to your external ip on port 22
[01:56] <Alarm> hello i got a problem mounting my external usb hd . when i plug it in and turn it on , and try to enter in the partition i get: could not enter folder /media/win5 . i can only mount it with pmount /dev/sda1 . i did also add my user (alarm) to the plugdev group , and rebooted as well.
[01:56] <Alarm> in the fstab there is nothing listed about the /dev/sda1 device .
[01:56] <aoliax> anyone know if the A+ certification is worthwhile?
[01:56] <Slart> dade: it's not crap.. it's just some confusion about the numbers... =)
[01:56] <kahrytan> Slart: first 0 is the sound card?
[01:56] <jmg> abraxas_: you should see a banner like SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.3p2 Debian-5ubuntu1
[01:56] <Alarm>  when i mount it with pmount /dev/sda1 as i said it works pretty well,. i can enter the partition,. but once i turn it of (even if i remove it safely) , and then turn it on again, i get again the same message . it is an ntfs drive
[01:57] <Slart> kahrytan: yes.. the second is the device on the card.. my audigy has 7 or 8 of those.. one for recording.. one for playing... the rest I have no idea what they do =)
[01:57] <serenity> aoliax: a+ is not worth it
[01:58] <kahrytan> Slart: And how do you know which one is which
[01:58] <serenity> depends on the job that you want, but normally it isnt worth it
[01:58] <abraxas_> jmg no banner at all before it ask for the password
[01:58] <serenity> they will train you and they just want to know that your competant
[01:58] <dade> Slart: yep, kinda sad knowing you spent some good $ and realize it was less than what you thought!
[01:58] <abraxas_> and it immediately (no delay) denies any password i give it
[01:58] <niriven> Is there a firewall on or something by default in ubuntu? i cannot connect to an open port remotely (yes i have my router setup)
[01:58] <Slart> kahrytan: check the file /proc/asound/devices for a list of all the devices
[01:58] <orestyle8> are there any speaker channels on freenode?
[01:58] <jmg> abraxas_: use telnet
[01:59] <dade> Slart: anyway, now I can finally start using the NAS
[01:59] <Slart> dade: yup.. but it's not like you could have gotten a better deal somewhere else.. they all cheat
[01:59] <abraxas_> jmg i have that port blocked right now, actually
[01:59] <kahrytan> Slart: It just gave the sound chip. (0)
[01:59] <aoliax> serenity: thanks, i was told that that was a useful thing to have
[01:59] <jabagawee> is there any dedicated irc channel for beryl?
[01:59] <aoliax> serenity: good thing i didnt waste my time haha
[01:59] <dade> Slart: great! that's a relief to know :D
[01:59] <Slart> kahrytan: devices.. not cards.. /proc/asound/devices
[01:59] <abraxas_> jmg: but i'm unblocking it... all i have set up right now is 22 set to forward ssh requests to my system
[02:00] <Slart> kahrytan: you can check /proc/asound/pcm too
[02:00] <micro> slm slm
[02:00] <Electricity> What do I need to install to watch DVDs?
[02:00] <kahrytan> slart: All It gave is just the one.
[02:00] <Slart> kahrytan: pcm too?
[02:00] <halobox> hello

[02:01] <kahrytan> slart:  That got me MIC for 00-01 and Capture and Playback for 00-00
[02:01] <gas> anyone there? First, Hi all :) I got a little problem: i want the PC to make those steps : every 10 minutes, if internet connection is down, launch the command "pon dsl-provider"... anyone would like to help me?
[02:02] <jmg> abraxas_: that might help
[02:02] <J^son> I have my printer connected to my ubuntu box working fine... I am trying to print from my windows box which is connected to it through a router.. I enabled file sharing through samba... Can someone help me with the printer issues?
[02:02] <Slart> kahrytan: that sounds correct.. so.. hw:0,0 is the capture and playback device.. can do both.. hw:0,1 is the microphone capture device
[02:02] <ste-foy> Bonjour tout le monde
[02:02] <zetsumei> ok i got a major problem
[02:03] <J^son> salut ste-foy
[02:03] <Slart> !fr | ste-foy
[02:03] <ubotu> ste-foy: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:03] <zetsumei> i just installed ubunut on my laptop and i cant get my wifi working :(
[02:03] <zetsumei> or sound
[02:04] <ste-foy> Slart, sorry I did a /amsg
[02:04] <ste-foy> :(
[02:04] <Slart> gas: I'd use crontab to make the "once every 10 minutes"-thingy.. ... hmm.. to check if the internet connection was up I guess you could use "ping"... combine the two with some bash magic and you should be set =)
[02:04] <techjim> hey guys, I'm running eclipse on ubuntu 7.04 and I can't run my main method to run inside eclipse... any ideas?
[02:04] <Slart> ste-foy: no worries.. just thought you spoke only french =)
[02:05] <zetsumei> no one can help me get my wifi working?
[02:05] <Enselic__> I don't get it, how would I think if I would like to set what font rxvt should use?
[02:05] <Enselic__> xlsfonts?
[02:05] <Enselic__> then what?
[02:06] <slvmchn> how do i use beryl? i installed it via synaptic but it doesn't show up in the login screen (like fluxbox, kde, gnome etc.) and i can't figure out how to run it
[02:06] <J^son> I have my printer connected to my ubuntu box working fine... I am trying to print from my windows box which is connected to it through a router.. I enabled file sharing through samba... Can someone help me with the printer issues?
[02:06] <Enselic__> slvmchn: you can try by running beryl
[02:06] <Flannel> slvmchn: beryl runs ontop of gnome, for instance.  Not instead of.  Ask in #ubuntu-efects
[02:06] <Enselic__> literally
[02:06] <UnluckyMike> zetsumei: what kind of card do you have
[02:07] <Slart> slvmchn: beryl is sometihng you run on top of gnome .. there is a beryl-manager you can install.. it gives you an icon in the task tray with some menus for settings etc
[02:07] <Flannel> slvmchn: sorry, #ubuntu-effects
[02:07] <drew> how do i modify what ubuntu loads on start-up?
[02:07] <Enselic__> drew: System -> Preferences -> Sessions iirc
[02:07] <Enselic__> that's one way
[02:07] <Flannel> drew: which startup?  Login? or actual machine bootup?
[02:08] <Enselic__> another is to modfy runlevel scripts
[02:08] <drew> machine bootup, it hangs for a few seconds right when ubuntu splash screen appears
[02:08] <drew> something is getting in its way, it hangs for a minute or so, then carries on with normal bootup
[02:08] <Slart> good night everyone
[02:08] <klotho> hey, I'm trying to upgrade, but it says that the upgrade can't be authenticated.... anything I should do, or isthere a problem?
[02:08] <Flannel> drew: probably DHCP
[02:09] <ste-foy> beryl ? youo need to have your direct redenring to use beryl
[02:09] <zetsumei> anyone think they can help me get my wifi working
[02:09] <ste-foy> -o
[02:09] <drew> Flannel: anyway to speed it up
[02:09] <klotho> also, any problems with feisty faun and thinkpad T23, especially wireless (which was broken in the last version)?
[02:09] <drew> Flannel: im on dsl through a router, never had this issue in 6.06 =\
[02:09] <Flannel> drew: You can stop the splash temporarily and check it out (at GRUB highlight your boot option, hit 'e' to edit, the remove 'quiet' and 'nosplash' then boot it)
[02:10] <drew> Flannel: aaah, tyvm.
[02:10] <Flannel> !bum | drew
[02:10] <ubotu> drew: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[02:10] <Flannel> drew: that's how to edit/whatever stuff, if/when you want to; as well.
[02:10] <gas> anyone there? First, Hi all :) I got a little problem: i want the PC to make those steps : every 10 minutes, if internet connection is down, launch the command "pon dsl-provider"... anyone would like to help me?
[02:10] <drew> Flannel: great, thank you
[02:10] <klotho> anyone home?
[02:10] <klotho> "I'm trying to upgrade, but it says that the upgrade can't be authenticated.... anything I should do, or isthere a problem?"
[02:11] <klotho> a problem with the authentication server that you may know of...
[02:11] <wepeel> Hey all, quick question. I'm going to be setting up Ubuntu for a friend of mine this week and he has DSL. He also has a router. If it's a PPOE connection, will that be taken care of by the router or do I have to set up something in the OS?
[02:12] <poningru> wepeel: the router has to take care of it
[02:12] <Zorlin> Wepeel: Is the modem a LAN-based, or a USB-only one?
[02:12] <Whtiger> can someone explain to me why this is happening? http://rafb.net/p/NGn6du57.html
[02:12] <Pelo> wepeel,  yes if dsl connections should be setup in the router already
[02:12] <klotho> so no one here knows anything about what to do about an authentication problem with the upgrade?
[02:12] <ignas> hi
[02:12] <wepeel> poningru: great thanks
[02:12] <Pelo> wepeel,  other wise    pppoeconf
[02:12] <wepeel> Zorlin: not USB
[02:13] <wepeel> Pelo: thanks x 2
[02:13] <gas> anyone there? First, Hi all :) I got a little problem: i want the PC to make those steps : every 10 minutes, if internet connection is down, launch the command "pon dsl-provider"... anyone would like to help me? (got pppoe connection that funcions just like modem )
[02:13] <Zorlin> Wepeel: Then yes, it should be fine
[02:13] <wepeel> thanks everyone. He's another win convert muahahaha.
[02:13] <wepeel> (or will be, I'm sure)
[02:13] <Whtiger> `ping` is resolving things it shouldn't.
[02:13] <Zorlin> Yeah. I'm not fully converted yet =(
[02:13] <pass26> anyone knows how to setup a radio stram server on ubuntu
[02:13] <guille1983> what is wrong in this line in my sources.list ?? Imposible obtener http://ve.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-updates/Release  Unable to find expected entry  contrib/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
[02:13] <poningru> gas: you can setup a cron job if you know teh exact command
[02:14] <poningru> !cron | gas
[02:14] <ubotu> gas: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[02:14] <wepeel> again, 'preciate the info. Back some other tim, I
[02:14] <wepeel> 'm sure
[02:14] <wepeel> weird
[02:14] <mikeh0209> i upgraded to fiesty fawn, and now, i cannot figure out how to minimize any open windows.  the shortcuts on the upperright of each window is gone
[02:14] <poningru> guille1983: I'm guessing its the server's fault
[02:14] <BFrank> why wasn't the text based installer of the alternative cd merged into the main installer disk and just made an option on the grub boot menu?
[02:14] <gas> poningru the problem is that i dont know how to translate "if (is internet alive) then ..."
[02:15] <poningru> guille1983: change it to global instead of ve in your repo config
[02:15] <Flannel> BFrank: because they're entirely different.  One is an image (Desktop CD) that gets copied to the HD, the other is basically installing a bunch of packages.
[02:15] <drew> Flannel: could i just do this in /boot/grub/menu.lst: kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=UUID=0f045108-3f6e-4956-ab4e-0f5f885c9b79 ro quiet ##splash
[02:15] <drew> so i allways see bootup sequence
[02:15] <guille1983> poningru: whay is the global?
[02:16] <BFrank> Flannel: the boot cd has an installer that copies packages to the hd, does it not?
[02:16] <guille1983> poningru: what *
[02:16] <BFrank> the difference is one uses the gui to do this, and the other uses textmode, I still don't understand why they had to be seperate
[02:16] <Flannel> drew: yeah, except you don't want to edit the booting lines directly, you want to scroll up a bit to the option lines, edit those.  Otherwise the changes you make get removed whenever you install a new kernel
[02:16] <ignas> i have this very funny problem, my root filesystem has no mountpoint or something like that ... i mean df is not showing it, mount is not showing it as well, "df -h ." shows how much space is left but is not showing it mounted on "/"
[02:16] <poningru> guille1983: sys->admin->software sources
[02:16] <Flannel> BFrank: The Alternate CD is basically a dpkg machine.  The DEsktop CD is an image.
[02:16] <guille1983> poningru: ok ok
[02:17] <ignas> where could i look too find out what's broken?
[02:17] <BFrank> hmm, so the desktop cd doesn't use pkgs?
[02:17] <Flannel> BFrank: they're ENTIRELY different installation methods, independant of the interface.
[02:17] <poningru> BFrank: take this up in -installer
[02:17] <BFrank> to install ubuntu?
[02:17] <drew> Flannel: hmm, didn't see anything with "splash" higher up.
[02:17] <Flannel> BFrank: nope.  Which is why you can't use the DEsktop CD to upgrade-- no package on the CD
[02:17] <BFrank> interesting
[02:17] <poningru> ignas: whats broken?
[02:17] <drew> Flannel: except this "# defoptions=quiet splash" just remove # then?
[02:17] <BFrank> is alternative cd always going to be an option with future ubuntu release?
[02:18] <Flannel> drew: no.  Remove the quiet and splash.
[02:18] <Flannel> BFrank: yes.
[02:18] <poningru> gas: easier is to do if the connection goes down
[02:18] <BFrank> ok
[02:18] <Flannel> BFrank: or, as far as in the foreseeable future, yes.
[02:18] <drew> Flannel: ah, k thx
[02:18] <poningru> gas: do a post ifdown
[02:18] <NBrepresent> is there any way to force a download of a package, ignoring its dependancies? my problem is that i want to download the mysql query browser gui, but it says i have to install mysql.... i already have mysql installed, but not through the package manager (i installed xampp for linux)
[02:18] <BeRniTo> Does anybody know what the + symbol means in the list of Usplashes when doing "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so"?
[02:18] <ignas> poningru: root partititon is in my fstab but not mtab which leads to various interesting things
[02:19] <Flannel> drew: The comments are because grub doesn't see them atbboot time, but udpate-grub sees them when recreating that file (each time you add/remove a kernel)
[02:19] <Zorlin> BeRniTo: Doesnt it represent a bullet point?
[02:19] <jeffwheele1> Every time I login or turn my monitor on, my monitor's position settings are reset and I have to reconfigure the positioning, and it changes depending on which video drivers I'm using.
[02:19] <jeffwheele1> What's going on?
[02:19] <Flannel> drew: so, after you change it, update-grub
[02:19] <BeRniTo> Zorlin, what's a bullet point?
[02:19] <Crescendo_> My system doesn't seem to have any swap space.  How do I add some?
[02:19] <drew> Flannel: ah ok, thats why its all #
[02:19] <ignas> poningru: like 5.6 GB volume showing up in file save dialogs, etc.
[02:19] <Zorlin> BeRniTo: Its meant to seperate information
[02:19] <Pelo> jeffwheele1,  each driver probably uses a diffrent refresh or something
[02:19] <Zorlin> - Like
[02:20] <Zorlin> - This
[02:20] <NBrepresent> so can i install the query browser anyway, and ignore its dependency on mysql ?
[02:20] <poningru> ignas: hmm
[02:20] <jeffwheele1> Pelo: hmm? why would I need to reset the positioning then every time I turn on the monitor, even if nothing changes?
[02:20] <poningru> ignas: can you pastebin the mount output?
[02:20] <mikeh0209> i upgraded to fiesty fawn, and now, i cannot figure out how to minimize any open windows.  the shortcuts on the upperright of each window is gone
[02:20] <BeRniTo> Zorlin, it doesn't make sense. Are you under Ubuntu?
[02:21] <Pelo> jeffwheele1,  the monitor doesn'T remember probabaly, I'm just guessing
[02:21] <Whtiger> My `ping` is resolving anything I put in it, despite it not existing. Can anyone help me?  http://rafb.net/p/NGn6du57.html
[02:21] <ignas> poningru: http://pastey.net/19869

[02:22] <NBrepresent> is there any way to force a download of a package, ignoring its dependancies? my problem is that i want to download the mysql query browser gui, but it says i have to install mysql.... i already have mysql installed, but not through the package manager (i installed xampp for linux)
[02:23] <poningru> ignas: how are you still functioning?
[02:23] <Zorlin>  These
[02:23] <Zorlin>  are
[02:23] <Zorlin>  bulletpoints
[02:23] <Zorlin> BeRniTo: That answer your question?
[02:23] <poningru> NBrepresent: ignore dependency
[02:23] <BeRniTo> Zorlin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18497/
[02:23] <jeffwheele1> Pelo: I'm using a pretty average Dell 1701FP monitor; any reason it could be forgetting, though?
[02:23] <ignas> poningru: i wonder myself ;) but seems to be working this way since feisty upgrade
[02:23] <NBrepresent> poningru: where is that option?
[02:23] <BeRniTo> The * means that it's the actual Usplash in use.
[02:23] <kahrytan> How do i make the sound recorder capture whats going out to speakers?
[02:23] <BeRniTo> But don't understand the + symbol.
[02:23] <jeffwheele1> I can't seem to find anything by Googling it.
[02:23] <Zorlin> Ah. I think the + actually represents what is currently selected
[02:24] <Pelo> jeffwheele1,   I donT' know that that is what is going on I'm just guessing at possiblities, I have no  way of checking , I'm just giving you possible leads,  google man google
[02:24] <Pelo> jeffwheele1,  stop switching  videocards and you should be fine
[02:24] <Pelo> but I am just guessing
[02:24] <Zorlin> BeRniTo: Not sure, sorry
[02:25] <BeRniTo> Zorlin, If I change the Usplash to the second one, the * appears next to the second option but the + sign still remains on the first one.
[02:25] <ignas> poningru: i saw the output that mount gives when you pass it wrong parameters after fsck today, but could not find it in logs ...
[02:25] <biggahed> hello there... i messed up something and dont really know what am i supposed to do. anyways, im trying to login on gdm, but when it tries to load gnome i get only a term. exiting the term gives me a error window, saying that my session only lasted 10 secs
[02:25] <d0lph1nK1ng> is there any tool to allow you to read/write EXT3 from Vista?
[02:25] <jeffwheele1> Pelo: nah, I'm not; I meant that I have to change the monitor settings _differently_ depending on which driver I use; e.g. I have to change to one horizontal setting on the nv drivers, and a different one to make the nvidia drivers appear correct.
[02:26] <Zorlin> Okay, BeRniTo: The * means what is selected within the dialogue box, and the + means what your usplash is currently set to
[02:26] <biggahed> viewing the details of the error i see that it tried to create /dev/null but it couldt... and it goes back to the login screen. can anyone help?
[02:26] <dj-fu> god damnit
[02:26] <Zorlin> Select the 2nd option and confirm it, the + will move there next time you open the dialogue
[02:26] <poningru> NBrepresent: aptitude <package>:
[02:26] <poningru> NBrepresent: put that in for mysql
[02:27] <Zorlin> have to go man
[02:27] <Zorlin> sorry
[02:27] <NBrepresent> you mean for the query browser?
[02:27] <poningru> NBrepresent: and that should hold mysql
[02:27] <NBrepresent> i don't want mysql, i already have it.
[02:27] <Pelo> jeffwheele1,  check your monitor's manual if you have it or check online,  try to see of you can make a "user's settings" that sticks or somesuch,
[02:27] <torpedo|dog> When configuring my kernel, what processor family should I select for the Intel Core Duo? Pentium M?
[02:27] <poningru> no package should have the package name for mysql
[02:27] <BeRniTo> Zorlin, no, It doesn't. That's why I'm searching for it's meaning. :P
[02:27] <poningru> and then try to install query browser
[02:27] <NBrepresent> k
[02:27] <jeffwheele1> Pelo: sounds like a good idea; I'll look (thanks for helping, by the way)
[02:27] <eXcAliBuR> I need some 1 on 1 help setting up a email with ubuntu... i have postfix and smtp and saslauth and all that other fun stuff ... but the final config with alias i don't know how to do... please pm me

[02:28] <scarter> are the kvm and vt features only available in the server version of feisty
[02:28] <swj> anyone know if pidgin will make it into feisty?
[02:29] <philwhln> help! I've just upgraded to feisty and all the text is just blocks
[02:29] <biggahed> isnt this a support channel? if it isnt, im sorry.
[02:29] <Pelo> biggahed,  did you setup progs to load at startup ?
[02:29] <poningru> biggahed: it is

[02:29] <Pelo> biggahed,  it is a support channel but the supporters are all users, we can only help you with stuff we know
[02:30] <poningru> NBrepresent: no dude when you are installing the browser query thing
[02:30] <Whtiger> Can someone tell me why `ping` keeps resolving anything I give it? I know "asd" shouldn't resolve to anything..
[02:30] <NBrepresent> ah, i think i read it in the usage notes.
[02:30] <philwhln> does anyone know why my fonts are just blocks?
[02:30] <poningru> so sudo aptitude install mysql: browserquerything
[02:30] <biggahed> :) np
[02:30] <biggahed> i think i removed all the startup progs in the session manager
[02:30] <biggahed> anyway to restore it?
[02:30] <poningru> philwhln: just install all the fonts
[02:30] <lontra> !apt-file liblazy
[02:30] <poningru> !fonts
[02:30] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[02:31] <Pelo> biggahed,  that sounds like what you did wrong there are a number of progs inthere that are suppose to start
[02:31] <Monie> Ok, when I tried to install ubuntu, It said loading kernel, then a black screen came up and it said INT 14: some stuff and something else, can anyone help me?
[02:31] <kahrytan> How do i make the sound recorder capture whats going out to speakers?

[02:43] <zbrown> Hmmm how would I use dpkg to check a package's dependencies?
[02:43] <rbil> at0miku: u only use firefox as a browser?

[02:56] <Powerking89670> Hello everyone, ive tried installing Ubuntu several times. Ive installed it in the past countless times but for some reason it does not like me this time.... but on boot Grub gives me "Grub Error 18", ive looked into this error and the description was technical jargon that makes no sence to me
[02:57] <luisgmarine> tarelerulz, hehe, no problem, just follow those instructions letter by letter, dont' screw anything up, and if you run into problems then come back and look for me or just ask away.  I would like to inform you that I'm going to try this guide out right now too, so if something goes wrong you wont be the only one having technical difficulties :)
[02:57] <poningru> Powerking89670: hmm looking
[02:57] <Powerking89670> kk thank you :D
, haha , that is great will both be messed over .
[02:58] <Powerking89670> Im about ready to try installing Xubuntu just to see if its any differant
[02:58] <Powerking89670> if its not any differant its prolly time to ship the new HDD that worked yesterday back
[02:59] <Pelo> it is possible to "bridge" partitions from different hdd together in order to make a larger /home partiton ? ( plan be is a complexe system of symlinks)
[02:59] <poningru> Powerking89670: hmm ok it seems that its a bios problem
[02:59] <andresmujica> Pelo: yeap you ust use LVM
[02:59] <andresmujica> must
[02:59] <Powerking89670> It cannot be, It worked with an install like 2 hours ago
[02:59] <poningru> Powerking89670: go check in the bios and make sure that it recognizes more than 1024mb of hdd
[02:59] <Powerking89670> It does
[02:59] <Powerking89670> Ive already checked into that
[02:59] <andresmujica> i'll recomed to you this, put the new disk create a new lvm partition move all you home data there
[02:59] <poningru> Powerking89670: what did you change?
[02:59] <Pelo> andresmujica,  I don't mean two hdd I mean two partitons ? lvm will do that ?
[03:00] <biggahed> that should go on .gnome2/session , right?
[03:00] <Powerking89670> I installed Ubuntu from a live CD from Kubuntu on the HDD
[03:00] <Powerking89670> wiped the HDD with the Ubuntu installer
[03:00] <andresmujica> and then convert you actial home particion to lvm and then you can join it to your new hdd
[03:00] <Flannel> Pelo: Two LVM partitions, combined into one, then repartioned ontop of that, for a single /home, yep.
[03:00] <andresmujica> yeap with 2 parttions it would be done too.
[03:00] <poningru> Powerking89670: looking
[03:01] <andresmujica> i'm gonna outline you the process.
[03:01] <Vaske_Car> where do I set that volume is higher when recording with gnome recorder?
[03:01] <Pelo> Flannel, thanks I'll explore hat possitlibthy

[03:12] <ichmario> Please, Can I install my brand new Ubuntu 7.04 in 3 gb of free space that I have in one nfts HDD, or is it impossible without loosing the data I have there stored?
[03:12] <Electricity> bruenig, I did all that, it's like...Something with Totem I believe
[03:12] <Lathiat> ichmario: thats pretty tight
[03:12] <Matir> ichmario, ntfs can be resized to free up space
[03:12] <ichmario> really=?
[03:13] <mneptok> ichmario: installing Ubuntu means formatting and erasing drive space
[03:13] <bruenig> Electricity, so you get sound with some things but not others?
[03:13] <Lathiat> ichmario: ntfs can be rsized but 3GB is a pretty small amount of space anyway
[03:13] <RememberPOL> Hi, I'm connected to a remote v6.06 system via SSH but for some reason it doesn't have external IP access (ie, i do `ping google.com` and get this: "ping: unknown host ubuntu.com").... Any idea of what might be misconfigured?

[03:16] <RememberPOL> mneptok: ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
[03:16] <Lathiat> RememberPOL: right so you need nameservers in there
[03:16] <bruenig> StEaLtHtHiEf, what do you mean opened it?

[03:16] <StEaLtHtHiEf> I used winrar to extract it

[03:16] <bruenig> StEaLtHtHiEf, yeah don't do that
[03:16] <RememberPOL> ah.
[03:16] <Kazol> Any ideas on how to remove "NetworkManager Applet 0.6.2" icon from the top??
[03:16] <StEaLtHtHiEf> thats as much as I know.
[03:16] <bruenig> StEaLtHtHiEf, just burn the iso, don't extract it

[03:19] <__mikem> maybe it is infact your laptop that hates ubuntu. Did you ever think of that
[03:19] <zetsumei> -_-
[03:19] <zetsumei> ubuntu installed fine
[03:19] <ichmario> if I use the live cd and ubuntu gets stucked, is my computer too slow to use the complete OS?
[03:19] <zetsumei> it's being a bitch at letting me install my wifi, sound, etc...

[03:20] <bruenig> !iso | shawn34 convert them first

[03:38] <ant-> :)
[03:38] <themoebius> hey i just upgraded dist versions and now my nvidia drivers don't work. They say the kernel module version is older than the X module version. I can't remember if I installed the drivers with apt-get or with the offician nvidia binary before. Any suggestions on how i can upgrade?
[03:39] <ichmario> THIS IS MY CASE: I ha ve a computer with 3.4 gb of free space into a nfts partition and i wanna install ubuntu in that free spate, trying to avoid deleting windows due to familiar issues. I need help, please. Thanks.
[03:39] <GrueTamer> your repositories are set up to be feisty repos and not older ones, right?
[03:39] <GrueTamer> (that was to themoebius)
[03:39] <themoebius> GrueTamer: yeah
[03:39] <IndyGunFreak> mneptok: that command is working, as i can write to the drive now, but i can't delete anything off the drive
[03:40] <GrueTamer> themoebius: alright
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> still can't change who has access to the drive, with right click/properties/permissions tab
[03:40] <GrueTamer> lets see... (not an ubuntu expert right here)
[03:40] <ch296> ant: that didn't do it
[03:40] <ch296> ant: java is still linked to gij
[03:41] <melon> how can i disable X at startup?
[03:41] <ant-> ch296 : sorry dude, maybe someone else in here is a javaxpert
[03:41] <ch296> ant: yeah, thanks anyway, appreciate it
[03:41] <LoneShadow> melon: see if your grub has an option to boot in safe mode or something
[03:42] <Smilez> I'm about ready to give up on Ubuntu + Nvidia.... anybody feel like giving me some insight into why Gnome boots to a white screen, no matter how many times i CTRL ALT Backspace that biatch?
[03:42] <GrueTamer> melon: give me a second, ill find a good howto on that, they can prolly explain it better than i can (if you know how, feel free to say)
[03:42] <ant-> ch296 : there is a java*-plugin as well but i would guess thats for the web
[03:42] <ichmario>  THIS IS MY CASE: I ha ve a computer with 3.4 gb of free space into a nfts partition and i wanna install ubuntu in that free spate, trying to avoid deleting windows due to familiar issues. I need help, please. Thanks.
[03:42] <LoneShadow> melon: or go to console ctrl-f1 and you will change some settings for permanent disabling of X loading at boot

[03:42] <ghittsum> I'm unable to see my friends online when I use kopete for aim.
[03:42] <ch296> ant-: crap, I did apt-get remove gij and somehow java is still linked to it
[03:43] <Kazol> Is it worth upgrading to Feisty? I have Dapper.
[03:43] <LoneShadow> melon: not sure if I gave the best answer, but why do you want to disable X ? :)
[03:43] <ghittsum> what should I do, dollar menu?
[03:43] <ichmario> Thanks, I'll read.
[03:43] <melon> following instructions to get dual monitors happening
[03:43] <MikeJC> ch296: what problem are you having with java? I wasn't following.
[03:43] <melon> gave me this: Disable X from starting at boot (rc-update del xdm default<font size="3">)</font>
[03:43] <SurfnKid> someone tell me a simple html web photo album i can use with a gizzillion photograhps
[03:44] <ant-> ch296 : you should be able to reinstall just java after no?
[03:44] <SurfnKid> to sort out
[03:44] <jtt> Kazol, if i remember correctly you cant upgrade dapper to feisty directly
[03:44] <melon> but i don't quite understand
[03:44] <pschulz01> Morning.. What is the name of the standard window manager.
[03:44] <ch296> ant-: yeah, I'm trying that right now
[03:44] <Riley> I need help: i think i may have a virus/spyware problem and i don't know how to scan for or if i even i have a program to do so...
[03:44] <zeroday> pschulz01: gnome (metacity)
[03:44] <asos> how do i change the mount flags that my external usb drive is mounted with?  anyone?
[03:44] <zeroday> Riley: linux has no viruss
[03:44] <LoneShadow> melon: you should be to run those commands from an xterm window
[03:44] <ch296> MikeJC: hi, I'm trying to run the official JRE, however, typing java in shell is invoking gij instead
[03:44] <Kazol> jtt: so what do I do?
[03:44] <Riley> zeroday: spyware?
[03:45] <LoneShadow> melon: might require to use sudo rc-update ....
[03:45] <ant-> Riley : but it has plenty of exploits...
[03:45] <ghittsum> how do I get in line to ask a question?
[03:45] <zeroday> Riley: nope completely free like macs
[03:45] <zeroday> Riley: macs are based on linux
[03:45] <Fabian_Justice> GHITTSUM: just take a number due
[03:45] <GrueTamer> melon: i found this http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-to-linux-disable-x-windows-kde-during-system-boot/  i see that LoneShadow seems to have a handle on this, but perhaps that will help
[03:45] <themoebius> melon: do you actually have to disable X at boot or just shut down X?
[03:45] <LoneShadow> ghittsum: just ask :)
[03:45] <Fabian_Justice> ghittsum:  yr number is one.
[03:45] <zeroday> ghittsum: just ask
[03:45] <eternal_p> ghittsum: just ask
[03:45] <Fabian_Justice> ghittsum:  now serving one.
[03:45] <Riley> well my mouse gets really jumpy and i can't load or close any programs
[03:45] <Smilez> I'm about ready to give up on Ubuntu + Nvidia.... anybody feel like giving me some insight into why Gnome boots to a white screen, no matter how many times i CTRL ALT Backspace that biatch??? anybody? anybody at all?
[03:45] <ghittsum> sorry....didn't want to seem rude.  :D
[03:45] <Fabian_Justice> ghittsum:  one, please come to the service desk.
[03:45] <Fabian_Justice> ghittsum:  second call for number one
[03:45] <ghittsum> using kopete, can't see aim friends
[03:45] <melon> lol - i don't know.. if ever i end up here.. it means i no longer have a clue what i'm doing
[03:45] <MikeJC> ch296 : it is a path thing.  Try something like "export PATH=/usr/java/bin/:$PATH" and then "java -version"
[03:45] <themoebius> GrueTamer: I fixed the version problem
[03:45] <jtt> Kazol, i think you can upgrade to edgy then feisty, however i would reload feisty after saving your config type files and start fresh
[03:45] <eternal_p> Smilez: you are using edge eft right?
[03:46] <zeroday> Smilez: what gfx card, distro
[03:46] <Smilez> feisty fawbn
[03:46] <Riley> zeroday: well my mouse gets really jumpy and i can't load or close any programs
[03:46] <GrueTamer> themoebius: cool
[03:46] <Smilez> zeroday: Feisty, with Geforce 6600 i believe by XfX
[03:46] <ghittsum> using kopete, can't see aim friends?
[03:46] <zeroday> Riley: you running beryl
[03:46] <jtt> Kazol, ie  abandon dapper and go straight to feisty
[03:46] <eternal_p> Smilez: there was an issue with that and Beryl, I think using envy to uninstall and reinstall seems to fix the problem
[03:46] <Riley> zeroday: no

[03:47] <zeroday> Riley: not sure is your mouse wireless
[03:47] <LoneShadow> ghittsum: I guess no one knows an answer to your question, ask after sometime, try google, I dont use any chat software other than irc, so sorry :D
[03:47] <Riley> zeroday: no
[03:47] <GrueTamer> whoever wanted to know what the system requirements are, what are your system specs?
[03:47] <Smilez> then when i try and get the damn thing from 800x600 to 1024x768 is craps to a white screen
[03:47] <zeroday> Riley: try another port
[03:47] <ghittsum> thanks lone, been doing that....I'll keep looking
[03:47] <Riley> zeroday: happens when i try to load eclipse
[03:47] <ch296> MikeJC: gij is still showing
[03:47] <Smilez> for some reason it wont properly detect my LCD so i have to tweak it to get 1024x768
[03:47] <zeroday> Smilez: okay then try using envy (have you tried it)
[03:47] <eternal_p> Smilez: I've seen that wtih edgy eft, but like i said, envy or reinstall are my two suggestions, it is a beryl+nvidial issue i believe
[03:48] <pschulz01> zeroday: Thanks...
[03:48] <jtt> Kazol, if you cant upgrade to feisty yes, you should keep a shell around for quick upgrades/installs that way you are not retyping everything each time
[03:48] <zeroday> pschulz01: np
[03:48] <pschulz01> Ran it.. fixed everything..
[03:48] <Smilez> eternal_p: I've reinstalled 3 times already... whats envy?
[03:48] <MikeJC> ch296 : can you tell where java 5 (or 6) is installed?  It is usually in /usr/java/, but it might be else where.
[03:48] <Riley> zeroday: happens when i try to load eclipse

[03:48] <ch296> MikeJC: wait... I don't have /usr/java directory
[03:48] <ant-> blah
[03:48] <Kazol> jtt: What's the difference in Feisty? Should I even upgrade?
[03:48] <eternal_p> Smilez: great scrtip to handle nvidia video cards
[03:48] <Smilez> i had beryl + Xgl working in OpenSuse, but I left opensuse for Ubuntu, because canonical is improving their support

[03:48] <qmf> hi all. i use a cli install of ubuntu and on edgy it booted nice and slick with only a few startup messages. since installing fiesty cli it displays loads of crap i don't want to see. is there a way i can make it quiet?

[03:49] <zeroday> Smilez:  www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[03:49] <zeroday> Riley: dunno sorry try to reinstall eclipse
[03:49] <Smilez> awesome thanks!

[03:49] <zeroday> Smilez: np
[03:49] <LoneShadow> ghittsum: http://kopete.kde.org/faq.php, that link mentions something about AIM problem
[03:49] <gur3n> hi allysan.. it just freezes after pressing install on the boot screen
[03:50] <Smilez> alright, ill reinstall yet again, then i will run envy before enabling 3d gfx card
[03:50] <jtt> Kazol, if you dont need some of the newer apps in feisty then you can stay where you are at. however you should think about moving up sometime in the near future
[03:50] <Smilez> thanks zeroday, ill be back to report success (hopefully)
[03:50] <cosmodad> vic2: if you use alsa (you probably do), you already have a default device
[03:50] <wss> Saludos  a todos desde cOLOMBIA
[03:50] <zeroday> Riley: do you have any important files/ preferences saved on your eclipse program?
[03:50] <sax_> I love K Feisty!!
[03:50] <sax_> Just upgraded today
[03:50] <tyler_> you can install ubuntu 32 bit on an amd64 processor, right?
[03:50] <sax_> YEs
[03:50] <sax_> it's safer
[03:50] <zeroday> tyler_: yes
[03:50] <Riley> zeroday: no
[03:50] <sax_> 32 bit is much better bet
[03:50] <Allysan> gur3n: Did you ever try running "Check CD for defects"?
[03:50] <zeroday> tyler_: but alot slower
[03:51] <gur3n> Allysan: yes. it freezes as well
[03:51] <neozen> tyler_: yeah you can
[03:51] <tyler_> last time i tried it (a while ago) there were a lot of programs that wouldn't run in 64 bit linux.. is that still a factor with the new release?
[03:51] <zeroday> Riley: okay then sudo aptitude purge eclipse && sudo apt-get install eclipse
[03:51] <sax_> gur3n: try changing your iso burner to speed X4 or something like that
[03:51] <zeroday> Riley: in a terminal
[03:51] <zeroday> tyler_: yes
[03:51] <Allysan> gur3n: I'd try a different mirror... I had to go through 3 different ones before finding one that worked.  The one that worked for me was North America-Ubuntu.cs.wisc.edu, you might try that one
[03:51] <gur3n> sax_: i used the minimum speed
[03:51] <sax_> oh
[03:51] <neozen> Riley: just snag the newest off their site once you've properly installed java
[03:51] <sax_> nvr mind
[03:52] <tyler_> zeroday, does that mean everything will work fine or should i just go with the 32 bit version?
[03:52] <gur3n> gur3n: i see. i got mine from the torrents
[03:52] <zeroday> gtg all bi
[03:52] <neozen> zeroday: farewell
[03:52] <gur3n> Allysa: i see. i got mine from the torrents
[03:52] <zeroday> tyler_: many codecs dont work on 64 bit
[03:52] <burnerx> what is the difference between icecast2 & icecast-server ?
[03:52] <tyler_> shit
[03:52] <zeroday> bi neozen
[03:52] <burnerx> i am trying to setup a audio streaming server
[03:52] <tyler_> thanks
[03:52] <gur3n> thanks
[03:52] <Allysan> gur3n: the problem with that is that you never know if you're getting a good quality download.  I managed to download from www.ubuntu.com in about 20 minutes
[03:53] <MikeJC> ch296: you somehow have to find out where java is getting installed to.  /opt/java?  apt should be able to tell you.
[03:53] <gur3n> Allysan: ok. ill try downloading again.. thanks for the help
[03:53] <Allysan> gur3n: no problem
[03:54] <MikeJC> ch296: try ls of /opt, one system here is /opt/jdk1.6.0/
[03:54] <ant-> ch296 : you can run 'sudo updatedb' and then try 'locate java'
[03:54] <Allysan> Can someone perhaps help me with a problem related to m4a tags in amaroK?
[03:54] <sax_> Allysan: shoot
[03:54] <vic2> guys, does anybody know how to set a default sound devices to be used in all programs including firefox and opera???
[03:54] <ch296> ant-: thanks
[03:55] <ant-> np
[03:55] <cosmodad> vic2: I told you
[03:55] <ch296> MikeJC: thanks, give me a sec
[03:55] <vic2> oo
[03:55] <vic2> didnt see
[03:55] <cosmodad> vic2: then scroll up
[03:56] <Allysan> Well, It seems that I can't change tags on songs in m4a format.  Now, I've tried converting the songs to .mp3 using Sound Converter with the gstreamer LAME plugin and I've tried getting the gstreamer faac plugin (both recommended on ubuntuforums.org), and I've tried using exfalso, but I was hoping for a more efficient solution because I have a LOT of missing tags
[03:56] <rellik_> as I read around on the internet, I keep seeing how great it is that fiesty supports wireless out of the box..  while it did apparently find my card, and put it in roaming mode, it did not connect to my neighbor's (unprotected) network, nor can I find a list of available networks, so I can select my own..
[03:56] <ch296> ant-: the search result is too long, do you know how to filter it with grep?
[03:56] <xerebz> is there anyway to make keyboard shortcuts for programs?
[03:56] <sax_> wow, Allysan, sorry, I'm clueless
[03:56] <xerebz> not just global shortcuts via metacity
[03:56] <sax_> heh heh, on feisty my wacom mouse's scroll wheel is reversed
[03:56] <asos> how do i change the mount flags that my external usb drive is mounted with?  anyone?  please?
[03:56] <neozen> ch296: yeah... what do you want to grep for?
[03:56] <Allysan> sax_: that's ok
[03:56] <sax_> up=down.   O_O
[03:57] <hector> i was trying to download easycam to configure my webcam but it seems the repositories are not working, have some found it in another site?
[03:57] <ch296> MikeJC: ls/Opt only doesn't show java
[03:57] <Fylk> Hey, any one gotten gnome dock working under fiesty?
[03:57] <ch296> neozen: I'm trying to locate where java is installed using "locate java", but the search result is too long
[03:57] <xerebz> is there anyway for grub to only load if you hit a key on boot (aka no countdown time)
[03:57] <asos> locate java | grep bin
[03:58] <beland_> hey all
[03:58] <neozen> ch296: there you go... look @ asos's msg
[03:58] <vic2> cosmodad, it doesnt work
[03:58] <Fabian_Justice> xerebz:  Have you f'd around with GRUB settings?
[03:58] <ch296> asos: thanks
[03:58] <ch296> neozen: yep, thank you
[03:58] <xerebz> neg
[03:58] <cosmodad> vic2: what doesn't work? no sound at all?
[03:58] <beland_> i got XChat irc client, and when I try to recieve files via dcc, that's not downloading, what must I do ?
[03:58] <vic2> cosmodad, i set everything to alsa in the soune optioons
[03:58] <Fabian_Justice> xerebz:  I'd presume that if you f around with GRUB, you can configure something like that.
[03:58] <vic2> yes
[03:59] <xerebz> kk thx
[03:59] <cosmodad> vic2: can you listen to sound if I use all but one sound-using application?
[03:59] <vic2> i get sound from my music players, but that is because i set from their settings to use the device
[03:59] <ch296> MikeJC: I found java! it's in /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.11/bin/java
[03:59] <cosmodad> vic2: by default, it could be that mixing (multiple usage of the sound device) isn't possible
[03:59] <ch296> MikeJC: so I know how to invoke it now, thanks for your help
[03:59] <MikeJC> ch296: np, enjoy
[03:59] <cosmodad> vic2: well then I think you need to tweak your /etc/asound.conf a bit
[04:00] <jrib> !multijava > ch296 (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:00] <vic2> cosmodad, umm ok i'll turn off the music player, Could it be that, because my headphones are on a USB??
[04:00] <Flannel> xerebz: I'd try 0.  If that doesn't work, try a negative number.
[04:00] <weltschmerz> metacity doesn't start up when i log in.  anyone know why that might be?
[04:00] <cosmodad> vic2: not sure about the headphones, but turn off that music player, restart alsa-utils through sudo and possibly firefox or opera as well
[04:00] <Flannel> xerebz: It's the "timeout" directive in your menu.lst, but I don't see any mention in the manual about that.
[04:01] <cosmodad> vic2: headphones should be fine as far as I can see
[04:01] <vic2> cosmodad, how do i edit a file? what is the command
[04:01] <jrib> weltschmerz: using beryl or compiz?
[04:01] <rellik_> how can I see a list of available wireless networks?
[04:01] <vic2> cosmodad, how do i restart alsa-utils
[04:01] <xerebz> kkthx
[04:01] <Flannel> xerebz: in fact, -1 is forever.  So, there you go.  change your timeout to -1
[04:01] <xerebz> i don't want it to be forever
[04:01] <xerebz> i want it to be no countdown at all
[04:02] <cosmodad> vic2: edit a file by opening a shell and typing "gedit <file>". You need "sudo gedit <file>" if it requires root permissions
[04:02] <vic2> cosmodad, ok
[04:02] <cosmodad> vic2: you restart alsa-utils by typing "sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart"
[04:02] <weltschmerz> jrib huh?  i'm using gnome.
[04:02] <chump> hey is it normal that everytime i close xchat by the [x]  i got a program crash detected ?
[04:02] <chump> i'm on egdy
[04:02] <jrib> weltschmerz: ok, so that's a "no" I suppose.  Does it happen with a fresh new user?
[04:03] <Flannel> xerebz: eh?  So, instantaneous?
[04:03] <Kazol> I have trouble using k9copy. It cannot open the DVD.
[04:03] <xerebz> yea i'll try 0 seconds
[04:03] <Flannel> xerebz: yeah, you want 0 then.
[04:04] <xerebz> and is there anyone to give me root without resorting to terminal?
[04:04] <weltschmerz> jrib i don't think it does, no.
[04:04] <kermitus> hey i was woundering, i am learning php and some other web programming languages, and I am downloading and installing Ubuntu 6.06 and useing lampp, should I be installing version 7 instead?
[04:04] <weltschmerz> it just started happening to me.
[04:04] <jrib> weltschmerz: but did you try a new user?
[04:04] <{lobo}> who can help me with eggdrop
[04:04] <Flannel> xerebz: what?
[04:04] <xerebz> like giving menu.lst write permiss
[04:04] <xerebz> without having to do sudo etc
[04:04] <Flannel> xerebz: alt-f2, then `gksu "gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"`
[04:04] <weltschmerz> i can try a guest account i recently made.
[04:05] <vic2> cosmodad, gedit doesnt open anything, what is the console way of editing
[04:05] <jrib> weltschmerz: try a fresh new user
[04:05] <Flannel> vic2: nano or vim, the former is simpler/more friendly
[04:05] <xerebz> ty
[04:06] <xerebz> but like i have to go into terminal to do such things?
[04:06] <cosmodad> vic2: actually, don't try vim
[04:06] <weltschmerz> i just found some page online where someone had this problem, and someone else suggested to remove ~/.gnome2/session.
[04:06] <weltschmerz> it worked.
[04:06] <weltschmerz> nice.
[04:06] <Kazol> what are some good programs to automatically remove css and other new protection on dvds?
[04:06] <Flannel> xerebz: Eh?  alt-f2 isn't a terminal.  But, yeah.  Uh, there might be some nautilus script you can get to have an "edit as root" thing in your right click menu.
[04:06] <jlulian38> does this brltty thing poll all the USB ports?
[04:06] <nick_> can anyone help me to give read-only files write permission also? i'm new :(
[04:06] <bruenig> Kazol, as in make a copy?
[04:06] <jrib> nick_: what files?
[04:07] <Flannel> xerebz: I don't know of one in particular.  But it is doable.
[04:07] <jlulian38> cause it eats my microcontroller port :(
[04:07] <nick_> um, menu.lst
[04:07] <vic2> cosmodad, there is no file like that
[04:07] <Kazol> bruenig: yes, to bypass the latest protection (not only css) while shrinking the dvd using k9copy.
[04:07] <nick_> i need to remove the "splash" so that it will work each time without me editing before startup
[04:07] <jrib> nick_: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst      do not change permissions on system files, just use sudo when you need to edit them
[04:07] <cosmodad> vic2: if you're talking about /etc/asound.conf, it's not there by default, you need to create it yourself
[04:07] <Kazol> bruenig: kind of like the linux equivelent of "anydvd"
[04:07] <nick_> ah, thanks :)
[04:07] <bruenig> Kazol, well I use xdvdshrink. It has never failed me even on commercial dvds
[04:08] <jrib> !sudo > nick_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:08] <xerebz> ty
[04:08] <Flannel> nick_: Also, you want to edit that splash out of the #defoptions= line, not the kernels themselves.
[04:08] <nick_> ok, thanks flannel
[04:08] <Kazol> bruenig: does it remove dvd regions and do I update each week?
[04:09] <cosmodad> vic2: check out this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnableSoftwareMixing
[04:09] <bruenig> Kazol, it rips the thing into an mpg and then creates a dvd from that. So I guess you could say it removes dvd regions. So long as it can rip it, you can do whatever you want.
[04:09] <zeroday> who needs help with ati or nvidia
[04:10] <BeRniTo> Does anyone use giFTui?
[04:10] <asos> how do i change the mount flags that my external usb drive is mounted with?  anyone?  please??!@
[04:10] <bruenig> asos, edit /etc/fstab
[04:10] <Kazol> bruenig: so it could compress DVD9 into DVD5?
[04:11] <bruenig> Kazol, yeah, that is what it does, "shrink"
[04:11] <asos> bruenig: err i meant automouted
[04:11] <deepsa_> i saw ubuntu going down at distrowatch
[04:11] <rezman> any word of a myspaceim opensource or gaim plugin in the works?
[04:11] <deepsa_> means feisty is not upto mark?
[04:12] <jmg> rezman: try #gaim, file a wishlist bug or write it yourself
[04:12] <bruenig> deepsa, you realize how distrowatch works right?
[04:12] <Kazol> bruenig: thx, but I'm having trouble installing it. I could not find good directions online.
[04:12] <rezman> im good at bugging
[04:12] <deepsa_> bruenig; ah
[04:12] <rezman> thanks
[04:12] <beland_> i got XChat irc client, and when I try to recieve files via dcc, that's not downloading, what must I do ?
[04:13] <bruenig> deepsa, it measues HPD, hits per day, so how many people click on the distrowatch ubuntu link is what dictates that number. Kind of hard to gage anything from that I would say
[04:13] <bruenig> measures*
[04:13] <bruenig> Kazol, you get the .tar.gz, unzip and run the install.sh script
[04:13] <oriez> why when i setup keyboard layout its dont change
[04:13] <deepsa_> bruenig; oh
[04:13] <bruenig> Kazol, it will tell you what dependencies you are missing
[04:13] <Kazol> bruenig: thx, I'll try it later
[04:15] <|chiz|> does anyone know how to turn on the key repeat when it stop working?
[04:16] <r00tintheb0x> no |chiz| sorry
[04:16] <Vaelrith> How do I get Rhythmbox to play mp3 files?
[04:17] <cables> !codecs | Vaelrith
[04:17] <deepsa_> Vaelrith; fluendomp3
[04:17] <ubotu> Vaelrith: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:17] <jrib> Vaelrith: just double click on an mp3 in nautilus
[04:17] <chester> hi
[04:17] <deepsa_> chester;
[04:17] <Vaelrith> heh, ok
[04:17] <Vaelrith> thanks
[04:17] <cables> Vaelrith, if you open the mp3 in the default player, it'll install the codec for you
[04:17] <cables> Vaelrith, that codec will also work in RhythmBox
[04:17] <[ReLaX] SquishWor> Does anyone know if Ubutntu will work with wireless on a IBM Thinkpad T-41?
[04:17] <Vaelrith> alright
[04:17] <Vaelrith> thanks
[04:17] <neozen> [ReLaX] SquishWor: yes
[04:18] <chester> somebody knows hot to compile the rt2500 driver
[04:18] <[ReLaX] SquishWor> Thank you much!
[04:18] <chester> ???
[04:18] <neozen> [ReLaX] SquishWor: yes it will
[04:18] <chester> its for a wireless card
[04:18] <[ReLaX] SquishWor> Out of the box, or do I have to do anything special?
[04:18] <neozen> [ReLaX] SquishWor: should have some kind of intel pro wireless card
[04:18] <[ReLaX] SquishWor> That's what I was thinking
[04:18] <neozen> [ReLaX] SquishWor: when you get the latest kernel you'll be set up
[04:18] <salty> alot of my drivers don't work with feisty.... they are mostly intel wireless and sound drivers that don't work...do i have to recompile my kernel or do i have to build the drivers from source?
[04:18] <nomasteryoda> ^cmd
[04:19] <[ReLaX] SquishWor> neozen Thank you much :-)
[04:20] <bign0se> i'm trying to start proftpd, it doens't start,but /var/log/messages doesn't mention anything useful about it.

[04:20] <Riley> has anyone here ever had a problem with eclipse freezing as it loads?
[04:20] <deepsa_> Riley; ram?
[04:21] <Fabian_Justice> hmmmm
[04:21] <Riley> deepsa_ : ram is really low, but ive run the damn thing before fine
[04:21] <aterphasma> is there any particular reason X doesn't start on the 7.04 livecd?
[04:21] <Fabian_Justice> lol@phogg
[04:21] <py_geek> I'M PISSED OFF!
[04:21] <crdlb> aterphasma: does it in safe graphics mode?
[04:21] <bruenig> !opsnack | py_geek
[04:21] <ubotu> py_geek: Chocolate!  And Peanuts!
[04:21] <chrisjw> i decided to install ssh to play around with it, i'm behind NAT so no one can really play around but me and my family
[04:21] <beland_> i got XChat irc client, and when I try to recieve files via dcc, that's not downloading, what must I do ?
[04:21] <crdlb> aterphasma:  do you have a new ati card?
[04:21] <aterphasma> crdlb: hmm... good question, and yes
[04:21] <Fabian_Justice> chrisjw:  You have NAT at home????
[04:22] <YNWA> Does anyone know a media player that plays stupid DRM-ed wmvs?
[04:22] <efrancolaporte> hi i need OpenOffice help now, spellcheck does not work it detects nothing. ever. and yes it is activated.
[04:22] <aubade> >> ubotu> Error: float division
[04:22] <crdlb> YNWA: no that's impossible, unless the drm is cracked
[04:22] <chrisjw> yes
[04:22] <Riley> deepsa_ : ram is really low, but ive run the damn thing before fine
[04:22] <aubade> PM'ed. XD
[04:22] <dj-fu> YNWA: It's called Windows!
[04:22] <SexyBoBo-> "09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0"
[04:22] <YNWA> crdlb: *russian profanity*
[04:22] <YNWA> dj-fu: *more russian profanity*
[04:22] <salty> alot of my drivers don't work with feisty.... they are mostly intel wireless and sound drivers that don't work...do i have to recompile my kernel or do i have to build the drivers from source?
[04:22] <bruenig> efrancolaporte, you don't give yourself enough credit
[04:23] <Fabian_Justice> chrisjw:  wow, I'd never thought I would meet someone more paranoid than me
[04:23] <Fabian_Justice> chrisjw:  and today I met you
[04:23] <chrisjw> however when i log into ssh it gives me lots of junk i don't really want to see
[04:23] <YNWA> ... got that from the simpsons... anyway, so NO program will run it?
[04:23] <efrancolaporte> bruenig what?
[04:23] <py_geek> ALL:: WHEN I TRY TO UPGRADE TO UBUNTU 7.04 FROM EDGY IT SAYS IT CANT FETCH A FILE AND WHEN I TRY TO DOWNLOAD IT ON LIVE CD, IT SAYS IT CANT DOWNLOAD OR IT WONT FOR WHATEVER REASON!!!!!!!
[04:23] <py_geek> yes, this is a question.
[04:23] <Riley> deepsa_ : ram is really low, but ive run the damn thing before fine
[04:23] <kitche> SexyBoBo-: why did you post hd-dvd key in here?
[04:23] <chrisjw> THe programs included with ubuntu etc etc etc
[04:23] <Fabian_Justice> chrisjw:  congratulations for taking rather eccentric security precautions.
[04:23] <bruenig> !caps | py_geek
[04:23] <ubotu> py_geek: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[04:23] <crdlb> YNWA: as long as the drm hasn't been cracked, no program can open it
[04:23] <aterphasma> crdlb: yes, as in i do have an ati x1600, and good question to whether safe mode graphics work or not
[04:23] <deepsa_> Riley; lol but now you need 512 at-least
[04:23] <chrisjw> is there some conf file I can modify this or better yet, delete it
[04:23] <bruenig> py_geek, get on the live cd torrent
[04:23] <YNWA> crdlb: except Windows Media Player... of course
[04:23] <Fabian_Justice> chrisjw:  do you use an ssh client??????????
[04:23] <efrancolaporte> bruenig if you're implying that my documents have no spelling mistakes, even kldjklfh doesn't count as a spelling mistake in my OpenOffice
[04:23] <Pelo> py_geek,  you just made sure no one will help you
[04:23] <bruenig> YNWA, do you have a link to said file?
[04:23] <catid> wow the CFS scheduler is so sweet with the latest kernel.  i've never seen my computer so responsive, in windows or linux
[04:23] <crdlb> aterphasma: yeah there's lots of issues with new ati cards
[04:24] <arrow_> Does anyone know where the azureus executable file is located, I want to have azureus as my default bittorrent client, but I can't find it anywhere.
[04:24] <chrisjw> yes, putty
[04:24] <YNWA> bruenig: yeah
[04:24] <jrib> arrow_: type:  which azureus
[04:24] <py_geek> bruenig: how do i do that?
[04:24] <Fabian_Justice> chrisjw:  are you using putty on Unix or Windows??
[04:24] <Riley> deepsa_ : if i stick a ram stick in my cpu, will it automatically work and boot as usual
[04:24] <YNWA> why?
[04:24] <Pelo> arrow,  you don'T need to know where the executable is you just need to type azureus to start it ,
[04:24] <aterphasma> crdlb: i've noticed... would've gotten an nvidia if i'd realized the drivers suck so much
[04:24] <deepsa_> Riley; ya
[04:24] <arrow_> jrib I typed sudo apt-get install azureus
[04:24] <chrisjw> Fabian_Justice: i want to communicate with my machine from downstairs using ssh
[04:24] <jrib> arrow_: btw, it /should/ automatically be an option for you in the "open with" tab after you press properties
[04:24] <snap-l> I have to say, Ubuntu rocks.
[04:25] <Riley> deepsa_ : and if the stick is bad, it just wont boot right?
[04:25] <chrisjw> ideally there would be some welcome file that openssh sends to the client
[04:25] <efrancolaporte> hi i need OpenOffice help now, spellcheck does not work it detects nothing. ever. and yes it is activated.
[04:25] <crdlb> aterphasma: if you install into safe graphics mode, then enable the restricted driver, you may be OK
[04:25] <mneptok> snap-l: try making all the table legs the same length.
[04:25] <deepsa_> Riley; yeah
[04:25] <aterphasma> crdlb: i also have fail after installing xorg-driver-fglrx (or however it happens to be spelled)
[04:25] <Fabian_Justice> chrisjw:  good quesiton, dude.
[04:25] <jrib> efrancolaporte: what language?
[04:25] <snap-l> I'm using weechat from the live CD, while testing out muse (using jackd, qjackctl).
[04:25] <Riley> deepsa_ : k, thank you
[04:25] <efrancolaporte> jrib default language, english
[04:25] <aterphasma> crdlb: and subsequently editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:25] <snap-l> and downloading soundfonts from the net
[04:25] <Fabian_Justice> dude, I'm going to log out for a bit.  Good luck.
[04:25] <crdlb> aterphasma: did you try using the restricted manager?
[04:25] <chrisjw> it doesn't seem to be anything related to the user or group account, I created a new group and user for this
[04:25] <bruenig> py_geek, http://bw.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent
[04:25] <jrib> efrancolaporte: check the options, make sure english (US?) is selected for spell check and it says "abc" next to it
[04:26] <snap-l> Just had to let someone know.
[04:26] <aterphasma> crdlb: i assume that's something or other in safe graphics mode, yes?
[04:26] <bruenig> YNWA, where is the link
[04:26] <crdlb> aterphasma: it's ubuntu's installer for fglrx
[04:26] <crdlb> it may have success
[04:26] <c3_plg> haiiii
[04:26] <yipe> where should I go to bring in some error logs from ktorrent crashing?
[04:26] <|chiz|> what is the keyboard preferences in gnome a front end to?
[04:26] <snap-l> I've been having trouble getting jackd to work at all with Fedora. Ubuntu made it piddle easy.
[04:26] <crdlb> aterphasma: system>adminstration>restricted manager
[04:26] <YNWA> bruenig: hold on, it's somewhere in my stacked gmail account
[04:26] <aterphasma> crdlb: let me restart and see if i can get in with safe graphics mode, i'll probably be back (and thanks for helping)
[04:26] <bruenig> |chiz|, gconf-editor I presume
[04:27] <bruenig> |chiz|, gnome has a weird way of doing things
[04:27] <c3_plg> alllwwww
[04:27] <gldvxx> hi everyone!  i'm having a problem waking up my alienware laptop, i just install kubuntu, it froze, i hit power, and now it won't "wake up"

[04:27] <gldvxx> is there anyway to force it out of sleep/suspend/hibernation?
[04:27] <efrancolaporte> jrib im not finding the spellcheck settings, but i am finding the language settings
[04:28] <therealnanotube> yipe: into the pastebin (see forum motd at the top)
[04:28] <efrancolaporte> it is set to English (canada) (I am in canada and it is my default system language setting)
[04:28] <crdlb> SexyBoBo-: /me is getting a 404
[04:28] <jrib> efrancolaporte: well we can start with those.  What is the default language?  Does it say "abc" with a checkmark next to it?
[04:28] <bruenig> |chiz|, yeah it is weird. For instance in xfce, there is a simple text file to edit if you want to. Not so with gnome. I would try to get xbindkeys and then set shortcuts in there.
[04:29] <efrancolaporte> jrib if I click Spellcheck... (F7) it says the spellcheck is complete and the button OK closes the box before I can click options
[04:29] <jrib> efrancolaporte: did you see my last question?
[04:29] <|chiz|> ok becuase to fix my key problem I just went and turned key repeat on and then off again
[04:30] <efrancolaporte> jjrib: where exactly do you want me to look for an ABC checkmark
[04:30] <efrancolaporte> jrib: where exactly do you want me to look for an ABC checkmark
[04:30] <jrib> efrancolaporte: in the same widget that says "English"
[04:30] <gldvxx> does anyone know how to force power off a laptop?

[04:30] <gldvxx> i've tried removing the battery but that didn't do anything :(
[04:30] <jrib> efrancolaporte: if it's not there, you might need to install "myspell-ca" package
[04:30] <jrib> !paste > clls (see the private message from ubotu)

[04:31] <catid> gldvxx: on mine i hold it down
[04:31] <kitche> clls: you need to install build-essentials
[04:31] <gldvxx> the power buttoncan be set in the bios to "suspend" the system
[04:31] <gldvxx> i'm worried that's what happened, and now my system is suspended where kde froze
[04:31] <catid> gldvxx: try holding the power button down for a few seconds
[04:31] <clls> kitche how? apt-get is satisfatory?
[04:31] <gldvxx> catid: i've tried that multiple times
[04:31] <efrancolaporte> jrib: can you tell me what that wiglet is named
[04:31] <catid> gldvxx: ouch..
[04:31] <kitche> clls: yep sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[04:31] <gldvxx> it seems to power the system off, but when i hit the power button again to repower it back on it just sits there
[04:31] <efrancolaporte> jrib: can you tell me which wiglet it is?
[04:32] <bruenig> YNWA, yeah can't play it
[04:32] <gldvxx> catid: the screen is black, keys don't responde, i'm not sure what's going on
[04:32] <gkelly> HELP. My sound is working (I can cat a file to /dev/audio1) but I can't play any sounds in gnome.
[04:32] <jrib> efrancolaporte: by "widget" I just mean that drop down menu where it says "English (Canada)".  It would be obvious to you if you had it, see if you have "myspell-ca" installed

[04:33] <cyne> hi Riley
[04:33] <bruenig> YNWA, I seriously doubt you could get wmp working in wine, but assuming you could, it might work
[04:33] <Riley> what is a command i can use to check ram
[04:33] <gldvxx> jrib: when i power up the led lights on it come on
[04:33] <clls> sorry jrib
[04:33] <Riley> hy cyne
[04:33] <cyne> Riley, boot from the cd there is a memcheck
[04:33] <jrib> efrancolaporte: the one where you saw "English (Canada)"
[04:33] <Kazol> oriez: release caps lock
[04:33] <jrib> efrancolaporte: let me take a screenshot for you
[04:33] <gldvxx> jrib: the screen is black and it's unresponsive.  if i open and close the cd drive it spins but then that's it
[04:33] <YNWA> bruenig: hmmm...thanks... you've given me a lot to think about :-/
[04:33] <cyne> Riley, actually from grub there is one
[04:33] <Riley> cyne, memcheck takes forever doesn't it?
[04:33] <efrancolaporte> jrib: i saw English (canada) at several places, yet none feature an ABC checkmark, but then they don't have one for any language either
[04:33] <cyne> Riley, i don't know never used it
[04:33] <Pelo> oriez,  do you mean you want to change keyboard layouts ?
[04:34] <oriez> BUT THEN I WILL WRITE IN HEBREW THAT
[04:34] <jrib> efrancolaporte: ok, check that you have the "myspell-ca" package isntalled
[04:34] <bruenig> Riley, you mean analyze it or just get some information on how it is being used
[04:34] <jrib> !caps | oriez
[04:34] <ubotu> oriez: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[04:34] <bruenig> oriez, stop that
[04:34] <oriez> YA
[04:34] <Riley> bruenig, i just added a stick of ram, i want to see my toal
[04:34] <oriez> 
[04:34] <gkelly> Anyone know how to fix sound in Gnome?
[04:34] <bruenig> Riley, free -m
[04:34] <Pelo> oriez,   right click one of the taskbar ,  add to pannel,    toward the bottom of the list there is a keyboard switcher applet
[04:35] <jrib> gldvxx: I don't know, I'd call alienware myself
[04:35] <clls> jrib,
[04:35] <Riley> thanks

[04:35] <anandanbu> hi
[04:35] <clls> impossible found
[04:36] <YNWA> does Desktop Effects really screw up your display, or is it just me?
[04:36] <efrancolaporte> jrib: i indeed did not have the packages installed.  I'm installing them now
[04:36] <jrib> gldvxx: you could see if it boots from a live cd but I doubt it since you don't see any bios screen
[04:36] <cyne> i can see my smb share but when i try and navigate to it in xp it asks for user/pass. the share has 777 permissions so i don't get it
[04:37] <rellik_> under 'network-admin' my wireless card has a dash in the checkbox, insetad of nothing or a checkmark. does this mean that fiesty doesn't support my card out of the box?
[04:37] <jinxed> Anyone here have a blog?
[04:37] <oriez> how do i setup a key combination to do that
[04:37] <YNWA> rellik_: it just means it's on roaming mode
[04:37] <bruenig> !offtopic | jinxed
[04:37] <ubotu> jinxed: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:37] <izaak> jinxed: uhm out of 1196 people using linux? :P
[04:38] <Pelo> oriez,  in here please use the nick of the person yo are talking to so we know
[04:38] <aterphasma> crdlb: safe graphics mode doesn't let me get into X
[04:38] <Pelo> oriez,  what do you want those key combination to do ?
[04:39] <crdlb> aterphasma: then you'd have to use the alternate cd
[04:39] <oriez> change between language
[04:39] <crdlb> and hope fglrx works
[04:39] <YNWA> does anyone have a desktop effect problem where you maximise the window but it just bounces non-stop like it's having a seizure?
[04:39] <jrib> YNWA: yes...
[04:39] <clls> is the comand right to configure apache ?
[04:39] <aterphasma> crdlb: i tried, but the alternate CD is just as broken as the livecd
[04:39] <crdlb> aterphasma: can you believe that card is so crappy that it doesn't support vesa?
[04:39] <clls> ./configure --enable-module=so --enable-rule=SHARED_CORE -prefix=/www
[04:39] <jrib> clls: why are you compiling apache?  It's in the repositories
[04:39] <Pelo> oriez,  you mean between keyboard layouts ?   right click the bottom pannel  > add to pannel > keyboard indicator
[04:39] <YNWA> jirib: and is there a cure for this 'symptom'?
[04:40] <aterphasma> crdlb: it supports it under every other release of ubuntu i've ever used
[04:40] <jrib> !lamp > clls (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:40] <rellik_> YNWA, ah, alright.. but isn't roaming supposed to connect me to the nearest unencrypted network?  my neighbor's is unencrypted but it did not connect me to that..  nor do I see anywhere to select my network (other than typing in the details manually)
[04:40] <tritium> clls: indeed, why compile?
[04:40] <efrancolaporte> jrib: I tested it, spellcheck works for several languages THANK YOU VERY MUCH :-)
[04:40] <YNWA> rellik_: what version are you using?
[04:40] <jrib> YNWA: try #ubuntu-effects (I've turned the eye candy off because the bugs got annoying)
[04:40] <efrancolaporte> jrib that was simple but greatly appreciated
[04:40] <crdlb> aterphasma: I don't know then
[04:40] <jrib> efrancolaporte: np, glad it worked
[04:40] <YNWA> jrib: thanks :)
[04:40] <aterphasma> joy
[04:40] <efrancolaporte> now jrib, you're not aware of any gramar solutions for linux eh
[04:40] <clls> jrib,  because i saw in the tutorial
[04:40] <efrancolaporte> *grammar check
[04:40] <Pancakes> Hi, I'm trying to find a tutorial on installing a driver and etcetera, for my wireless-B router (WUSB11 v2.8), so I will be able to use the internet on Ubuntu.
[04:41] <vbabiy> !realplayer

[04:41] <clls> it's wrong?
[04:41] <efrancolaporte> it's not important but yay it works :)
[04:41] <DanaG> Yay, fbsplash on Feisty.  Semi-DIY, of course.
[04:41] <jrib> clls: there's no need to compile apache.  Just use APT to install it.  ubotu sent you instructions in a private message
[04:41] <DanaG> I installed some stuff from two repos, and then modified the initramfs hook.
[04:41] <Pelo> oriez,  menu > system > prefs > keyboard shortcuts
[04:41] <jrib> efrancolaporte: haven't really looked into grammar check
[04:41] <DanaG> I now have bash, sed, awk, and grep in my initramfs.
[04:41] <clls> oh great.. but just apt-get?
[04:42] <bruenig> !info apache2
[04:42] <ubotu> apache2: Next generation, scalable, extendable web server. In component main, is optional. Version 2.2.3-3.2build1 (feisty), package size 37 kB, installed size 84 kB
[04:42] <bruenig> clls, sudo apt-get install apache2
[04:42] <clls> i don't find the http.conf
[04:42] <jrib> clls: you installed apache2 through APT?
[04:42] <Pelo> how do I delete a symlinks wihout deleting the related content ?
[04:42] <jrib> Pelo: rm
[04:43] <Pelo> jrib,  thanks

[04:44] <clls> no jrib, i got in apache.org.. the extension gzip
[04:44] <giod> i have a font where do i put it to use it
[04:44] <jrib> clls: how did you install apache?
[04:44] <clls> but no necessary?
[04:44] <Pelo> oriez,  hold on , checking
[04:44] <YNWA> How do you customise the quit message?
[04:44] <jrib> clls: no, not necessary to compile apache
[04:44] <clls> i got in the apache.org the dir compilated
[04:45] <jrib> YNWA: /quit my cool quit message
[04:45] <clls> oh ok
[04:45] <YNWA> jrib: just type in the message area?
[04:45] <jrib> clls: get rid of the one you compiled and installed (if you did install it) and use the command bruenig gave you.  After that you'll have /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[04:45] <therealnanotube> giod: into the .fonts dir in your home dir.
[04:45] <therealnanotube> giod: that's the easiest way
[04:46] <jrib> YNWA: yep
[04:46] <Alecks> Hey, i've been having some problems lately, when I install 7.04 and it asks me to remove the CD and press enter to continue, it freezes.

[04:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen zero - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:46] <YNWA> jrib:cool. thanks
[04:46] <therealnanotube> giod: you can also look at the fonts page on the ubuntu wiki (it's up there somewhere). lists all the ways to install fonts...
[04:46] <bruenig> YNWA, and don't forget your password /quit quit message verify:password
[04:46] <Smilez> Well... zero was here, and now gone... but he helped me out.... Envy was the perfect solution
[04:46] <Smilez> later all
[04:46] <clls> jrib,  how i edit http.conf? and where i find it?
[04:46] <jrib> clls: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[04:48] <Alecks> Can anyone help me?

[04:49] <Pelo> oriez I think you can set what you want up in SICM ( in the prefs or admin menu)  but I am not sure how,  but I think it might be simpler to look for a solution in the forum,   www.ubuntuforums.com  welcome to the linux users' favorite passtime,  searching for solutions
[04:49] <hitmanWilly> Alecks, reboot the machine, its already installed at that point
[04:49] <chrisjw> i've been looking at the groupadd command, if i want to create a group that has only read access to everything, how would I do this?
[04:50] <oriez> thx pelo, yes i see how it work
[04:50] <jinxed> other problem: internet keeps cutting out :)
[04:50] <jinxed> any suggestions for the problem about no conflict
[04:50] <Alecks> When I reboot, it says something to the effect of "operating system can't boot"
[04:51] <hitmanWilly> Alecks, that sounds like it might be a grub problem
[04:52] <Alecks> well it's set up so that my wiped SATA hard drive is the only drive plugged in when I install it

[04:55] <jrib> vbabiy: try #ubuntu-doc maybe

[05:05] <mitchbones> Is Cedega worth the $5/month?
[05:06] <jrib> mitchbones: well get rid of 7, see if it helps.  If not, get rid of the other 8, then break that in half, etc...
[05:06] <mitchbones> jrib, I can already tell a difference.
[05:07] <jrib> mitchbones: k, well try to narrow it down now

[05:16] <Smilez> Now I need to figure out another issue... how do i change the order of bootable operating systems in Grub?
[05:16] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[05:16] <jinxed> elkbuntu, what i was going to say next is that is an odd headline even for www.digg.com  I wasn't trying to be mean it was on the homepage
[05:16] <zeroday> !freenx
[05:16] <SRed13> Does linux support PlugNPlay?  If I plugged a USB mouse in, would it 'just work' or would I need to reboot?
[05:16] <bruenig> !fat32
[05:16] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[05:16] <Pelo> thanks brue
[05:16] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[05:17] <rothfuss> vbabiy: type 'mount' and see if that helps.
[05:17] <zcat[1] > !sip
[05:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sip - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:17] <bruenig> Smilez, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and move the entries into the order you want them to show up
[05:17] <Smilez> fantastic... thanks
[05:18] <Alecks> So how can I solve a problem? I can't get help from the forums or the irc channel. I've tried everything I know how to do.
[05:18] <Crazytom> SRed13, try it?
[05:18] <SRed13> okay, i tested it, linux does support plug n' play.  Now my real question, how to get the wireless adapter to work.
[05:18] <SRed13> ICrazytom, I tried it.  Sorry for the laziness.
[05:19] <zcat[1] > Alecks: what was the problem?
[05:19] <Pelo> !wifi > SRed13  check your pm window
[05:19] <tunganet> How do i make gwenview my default picture viewer?
[05:19] <Crazytom> SRed13, have you tried installing and rebooting for your wireless card?
[05:19] <Alecks> when I install 7.04, and it asks me to remove the CD, it freezes. When I reboot, it doesn't work
[05:19] <zcat[1] > Alecks: hmmm. weird
[05:20] <Pelo> tunganet,  pick a file right click  > properties >open with
[05:20] <MSTK> tunganet - change your file associations
[05:20] <tunganet> thanks
[05:20] <tunganet> Pelo: thanks
[05:20] <mitchbones> jrib, they hung up again :
[05:20] <mitchbones> but only for like half a second instead of the usual minute
[05:20] <zcat[1] > Alecks: probably track down your local LUG and get someone to take a look at it...
[05:20] <andresmujica> Hello!!
[05:21] <Alecks> LUG?
[05:21] <elkbuntu> jinxed, think before you speak next time then
[05:21] <zcat[1] > Lunux User Group..
[05:21] <Nergar> where's vmware server, the ubuntu weekly newsletter says it was added to the add remove programs
[05:21] <jinxed> elkbuntu, sorry
[05:21] <Alecks> i'm almost positive there's no *nix users where I am living
[05:21] <zcat[1] > Alecks: sounds like there might be something odd with your hardware.. where are you living?
[05:22] <Alecks> washington
[05:22] <andresmujica> is this true??  http://www.fabianrodriguez.com/blog/archives/2007/04/30/its-d-day/
[05:22] <efrancolaporte> YO IM GETTING MY GRADES I GOT A+, A, A- AND IM LOOKING FORWARD A 4TH A......CONSIDERING THE STUDENT THAT I AM, THIS PROVES ONE THING: THE UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA IS A JOKE. XD
[05:22] <bruenig> efrancolaporte, stop that
[05:23] <vbabiy> can i make a new fstab from a live cd
[05:23] <zcat[1] > Alecks: http://dclug.tux.org/
[05:23] <Pelo> efrancolaporte,  we already knew that ,  everthing in ottawa is a joke
[05:23] <zcat[1] > that washington?
[05:24] <Alecks> i'm not sure what can be the problem, I tried installing it into my IDE hard drive, and that didn't work, so I tried installing it into my other SATA drive and that didn't work either. And no, I live in Walla Walla WA which is pretty much out in the middle of nowhere
[05:25] <r4nge> how can i make it so that my remote terminal window when using aptitude uses the same characters as if i were on the actual console, aptitude looks like it's using the wrong characters when i remotely login
[05:26] <andresmujica> i hate netsplits..
[05:26] <zcat[1] > Alecks: you doing a linux-only install? or dualboot?
[05:26] <bruenig> andresmujica, that is not a netsplit, that is the normal happenings of a 1100+ room
[05:26] <Alecks> linux only

[05:27] <Pancakes> Hi, I'm trying to find a tutorial on installing a driver and etcetera, for my wireless-B router (WUSB11 v2.8), so I will be able to use the internet on Ubuntu.
[05:27] <squall_> hi..how to join a tunnel?

[05:28] <squall_> thanks jrib^^
[05:29] <Polygon89> how do i make a kernel module load on every boot?
[05:29] <zcat[1] > Alecks: OK, I'm stumped. Probably post something on the forums and wait.. give as much info as you can of all your hardware, any errors that show up, someone will hopefully figure it out
[05:30] <Alecks> thanks anyways, already tried that. I'll just go back to windows :|
[05:30] <parad0x`> NOOOOO
[05:30] <parad0x`> DONT GO TO THE DARK SIDE
[05:30] <andresmujica> add it to /etc/modules
[05:30] <zcat[1] > Alecks: I assume you tried the usual noapic nolapic apm=off kernel options, they seem to help with a lot of odd mobo's
[05:30] <parad0x`> STAY WITH LINUX
[05:31] <Alecks> i'm running a system that's less than a year old
[05:31] <parad0x`> so...
[05:31] <zcat[1] > Alecks: just cos it's new doesn't exclude it being 'odd'
[05:31] <Alecks> well i'm really not sure what your noepic nolapic apm kernel stuff is
[05:31] <Toma-> Alecks: whats the problem?
[05:32] <Alecks> when I install 7.04, and it asks me to remove the CD, it freezes. When I reboot, it doesn't work
[05:32] <Pancakes> I might go to the 'dark side' if I can't find a tutorial for being able to install the drivers for my wireless-b router, so I can use the internet;(
[05:32] <zcat[1] > hit F1 at the boot prompt and look at some of the different options...
[05:32] <kristopher> guh.
[05:32] <Toma-> Alecks: "Doesnt work"?
[05:32] <kristopher> has something happened to the nvidia driver since edgy?
[05:32] <axisys> i am looking for a free web hosting / blog page .. (sorry about off topic) .. you guys recommend any such service provider?
[05:32] <Toma-> Alecks: theres been issues about freezing at the "remove CD" phase, but that wont effect the install
[05:32] <zcat[1] > Toma-: I assume hasn't got as far as installing grub :)
[05:32] <N3XU5> http://www.freesbie.org/img/freesbie11-2.jpg    <----- sombody know the program in the right of the image ?
[05:32] <kristopher> i had beryl up and going, and after doing a clean install of feisty.. its borked
[05:33] <MSTK> axisys - you can use some of the big names such as Blogger or Wordpress.
[05:33] <Alecks> i'll try it right now and get the error. brb
[05:33] <tgill431> beryl was easy for me
[05:33] <tgill431> after a fresh install
[05:33] <kristopher> tgill, it was easy for me too.
[05:33] <parad0x`> beryl is the best
[05:33] <kristopher> i just dont know whats happened to the driver.
[05:33] <Toma-> zcat[1] : nah nah, grub is installed in the gui. its all good. there was a coupld bugs about freezing on the remove cd part, right at the end when 'eject' is run tho
[05:33] <axisys> MSTK: did not know about wordpress.. blogger wont let two pages for same user..
[05:33] <parad0x`> although my card isnt supported -.-
[05:33] <Pancakes> I'm trying to find a tutorial on installing a driver, for my wireless-B router (WUSB11 v2.8), so I will be able to use the internet on Ubuntu. Any help would be appreciated:/
[05:34] <axisys> since i aleady have my own blogger page
[05:34] <kristopher> well, i have an inspiron 8200 lappy from dell with a nvidia 440 whatever.
[05:34] <MSTK> axisys - You can create multiple blogs on a single blogger account.
[05:34] <tgill431> beryl shows a lot of potential , the customization is also one of it's strenghts
[05:34] <kristopher> and it worked fine when i set it up with automatix.
[05:34] <kristopher> but feisty has kinda screwed everything up

[05:35] <Toma-> N3XU5: have a search around freshmeat for it
[05:35] <kristopher> i'm just wondering about the driver/ restricted module thingy
[05:35] <tgill431> my only issue so far is getting my tv card to work

[05:35] <zcat[1] > Toma-: yeah, I should know better by now :)
[05:36] <kristopher> its broke, here's the pertinent dmesg line:
[05:36] <MSTK> axisys - Wordpress is not really a hosting site, but a blogging engine.  The most powerful one out there, as well.  However you'll need to host it on your own server if you can find one.  (Wordpress does offer some servers themselves, but those are really limited)

[05:37] <zcat[1] > what was the restricted drivers bot trigger?
[05:37] <MSTK> Just a quick question.  Can anyone tell me what the mode is called when you enter a full-screen terminal using CTRL+ALT+F1 - F6?

[05:39] <Toma-> kristopher: disregard all that whacky wacom junk
[05:39] <tgill431> hehehe
[05:39] <kristopher> Toma, i know.
[05:40] <MSTK> Toma- on a related note, is it possible to change the preferences in it the same way that you can adjust the terminal?  such as aesthetics (color) and such.
[05:40] <zcat[1] > kristopher: the dev/wacom thigs is quite normal; it spews out errors because it's usually probing for hardware nobody has..
[05:40] <rizza> Ii anyone here a ubuntu install wiz
[05:40] <kristopher> I KNOW!
[05:40] <tgill431> diffrent tty
[05:40] <Toma-> MSTK: yeh in your bash.bashrc in /etc... dont mess with it if you dont know what youre doign tho

[05:40] <tgill431> diffrent sessions maybe
[05:41] <N3XU5> Toma-, you know the name of the program ?
[05:41] <crdlb> tgelter: did you change them?
[05:41] <Toma-> kristopher: can you paste your /var/log/Xorg.0.log on pastebin for me?
[05:41] <rizza> Zcat have you done a net type install on ubuntu
[05:41] <Pelo> tgelter,  that 's probably because you send a file in there you have no permission to delete
[05:41] <kristopher> Toma, as i said. Its a GLX problem
[05:41] <zcat[1] > rizza: nope...
[05:41] <crdlb> oh duh
[05:41] <tgelter> Pelo: no, it does that with any file I put in it
[05:41] <kristopher> (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)
[05:41] <tgelter> crdlb: no, I didn't...
[05:41] <Toma-> N3XU5: no sorry
[05:41] <kristopher> thats all you need really, and i'm not sure what exactly is causing it
[05:41] <crdlb> tgelter: could be a hidden file
[05:42] <kristopher> i think the install of the binary/kernel got screwed.
[05:42] <crdlb> tgelter: press ctrl+H in trash
[05:42] <rizza> Anyone do specialized install of ubuntu
[05:42] <fiveServer> anyone know a good open web proxy?
[05:42] <Toma-> kristopher: what nvidia card do you have
[05:42] <Pelo> tgelter,  chmod 755 ~/.Trash
[05:42] <Pelo> tgelter,  errr , sudo chmod ...
[05:42] <ZeZu> how can i extract files from a .deb ?
[05:42] <N3XU5> Toma-, thx
[05:42] <tgill431> how do you mena specialized?
[05:42] <zcat[1] > kristopher: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf does it say "nvidia" or "nv" for the driver?
[05:42] <ZeZu> I do not wish to install them on this system, but i can't find a proper source archive
[05:42] <Pelo> ZeZu,  you donT extract a deb you install it ,  just double click on it
[05:42] <rizza> net install like debian
[05:42] <kristopher> zcat, right now it says nv
[05:43] <ZeZu> Pelo, that is not what i want to do
[05:43] <kristopher> because i changed it from nvidia, because it wouldn't start X
[05:43] <crdlb> ZeZu: the gnome archive manager can
[05:43] <zcat[1] > kristopher: and you installed nvidia-glx packages? change the 'nv' to 'nvidia' and it should work..
[05:43] <ZeZu> crdlb, i'll look into that, thanks
[05:43] <tgelter> Pelo: I did that and it still complains. says "/home/tgel...rash/blah" cannot be deleted because you do not have permissions to modify its parent folder"
[05:43] <Alecks> ZCat and Toma: when I try to boot, it says "Error loading operating system" and nothing else happens
[05:43] <crdlb> kristopher: run: nvidia-xconfig
[05:43] <kristopher> zcat[1] : i know my way around linux
[05:43] <tgelter> and it'll read the same no matter what I put in there. it reports the error, but still deletes the file
[05:43] <kristopher> and i've done all these things
[05:43] <zcat[1] > kristopher: ahhh.. ok. sorry..
[05:43] <Toma-> Alecks: youre trying to boot Windows from the Grub screen right?
[05:44] <kristopher> the problem has something to do with my card + the new restricted module thing
[05:44] <Pelo> tgelter,  someone told you to open the trash can and try ctrl+h on it to see if there are hidden files in there
[05:44] <crdlb> kristopher: so X doesn't work with the nvidia driver?
[05:44] <Alecks> no. I only have one hard drive, and I installed Ubuntu on it
[05:44] <Toma-> kristopher: what nvidia card do you have?
[05:44] <ZeZu> crdlb, can you run the archiver via the console?  I use ssh, vnc refuses to work in ubuntu anymore :|
[05:44] <kristopher> thats why i asked if the binary has been updated
[05:44] <crdlb> kristopher: what card do you have?
[05:44] <SRedX13> ok, I'm back now.  okay, how do I install wireless drivers for my linux server?  I have the atheros 3850 / Dlink GWL 650B PCI installed
[05:44] <kristopher> nvidia geforce 440 go
[05:44] <tgelter> Pelo: no hidden files
[05:44] <crdlb> ZeZu: it's probably just a renamed .tar.gz
[05:44] <crdlb> I'm not sure though
[05:44] <Toma-> kristopher: youll need the nvidia-legacy package, not nvidia
[05:44] <kristopher> on an inspiron laptop, i did the search and it was saying something along the lines of it being updated.
[05:44] <crdlb> no
[05:44] <ZeZu> i'll test that theory ;)
[05:44] <tgelter> tgelter@guapura-ubuntu:~/.Trash$ ls -ahl

[05:45] <crdlb> Toma-: that's wrong
[05:45] <Toma-> kristopher: nvidia in all the wisdom decided to drop support for alot of old cards
[05:45] <Pelo> tgelter, check your users permisson settings, in menu > system > admin > users
[05:45] <kristopher> Toma, i didn't need the legacy package when i installed it on edgy
[05:45] <crdlb> kristopher: nvidia-glx is fine for your card
[05:45] <Toma-> crdlb: o rly?
[05:45] <crdlb> not nvidia-glx-new though
[05:45] <kristopher> right, i'm not using new.
[05:45] <tgill431> did anyone else here have trouble witht heir tv card and feisty?
[05:45] <crdlb> kristopher: ok what is the error with nvidia activated?
[05:45] <ZeZu> its not a gzipped tar ;|
[05:45] <Toma-> crdlb: "No compatible cards found"
[05:46] <kristopher> first off, i'm not getting a screen.  I'm hearing the ubuntu noise, which is weird.  But i'm losing the screen.
[05:46] <zcat[1] > Alecks: the other thing I'd probably try, go into bios and change SATA settings around, possibly it's emulating IDE and the grub install is getting confused, pointing to a sata drive that doesn't exist before the kernel is loaded ?
[05:46] <tgelter> Pelo: permission settings appear correct
[05:46] <kristopher> hold on
[05:46] <Pelo> tgelter,  check in the forum for other possibilities
[05:46] <kristopher> should it be a PCI location, if its on AGP?
[05:46] <Alecks> Toma: Thanks, i'll try that
[05:46] <zcat[1] > Alecks: this is a stab in the dark but I havd a similar problem in the past.
[05:46] <Pelo> tgelter,  and there is a file in there ?
[05:46] <mtx1> just upgraded to fiesty and for some reason all of my text is now just boxes instead of letters
[05:46] <Toma-> kristopher: yep
[05:47] <crdlb> kristopher: don't specify the BusID
[05:47] <kristopher> oh man.
[05:47] <crdlb> you don't need to
[05:47] <kristopher> just leave it out?
[05:47] <crdlb> yes
[05:47] <tgelter> Pelo: no, not currently. the trash empties fine...but it pops up that error every time and it's annoying
[05:47] <kristopher> okay, i'll give that a go
[05:47] <Pelo> mtx1,  I would suggest you check the language support but if you can't actualy read anyting that wonT' be much help
[05:47] <kristopher> I know i did something ridiculous to Xorg last time i installed beryl
[05:47] <kristopher> but i cant remember what the hoot it is.
[05:47] <mtx1> kristopher, i can ssh into it
[05:47] <crdlb> kristopher: you could always just regenerate it
[05:47] <kristopher> haha
[05:48] <kristopher> mtx1: thats sweet and all, but there is no way i'm going to let you ssh into my box
[05:48] <Toma-> kristopher: a heads up, your card wont be supported in the 97xx series drivers from nvidia
[05:48] <mtx1> oops i mean Pelo sorry kris
[05:49] <crdlb> ie nvidia-glx-new
[05:49] <kristopher> yah, currently its just going with nvidia-glx
[05:49] <zcat[1] > I can't remember if this chipset is legacy or not... I started off with nvidia-glx, one of the updates on edgy it suddently wanted nvidia legacy so I ended up installing one version back with the binary installer. I think the feisty packages I'm using now are the plain nvidia drivers, not legacy. But I'm so confused :)
[05:49] <crdlb> zcat[1] : what card?

[05:50] <jrib> !usplash > ubuntu_user07 (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:50] <kristopher> why would i be able to hear ubuntu starting
[05:50] <kristopher> but get no screen?
[05:50] <mtx1> well in ssh text is fine its only in the gui
[05:50] <Stoffer> In the Sessions manager (GNOME), Volume Manager is set to start w/ X, but the command is gnome-volume-manager --sm-disable...what does the "--sm-disable" do?
[05:51] <zcat[1] > I think I had a 'cutting edge' driver repo at the time.. it definately started telling me the card wasn't supported any more.
[05:51] <Toma-> kristopher: are you using desktop-effects? (like i asked like 10 mins ago)
[05:51] <kristopher> fresh install
[05:51] <ubuntu_user07> earlier i told was told to use reconfigure-gdm but i don't remember the full command
[05:51] <Toma-> kristopher: ok

[05:53] <zcat[1] > thanks cables
[05:53] <cables> !es | ZEROCOOL
[05:53] <kristopher> so it downloads new packages when i go to reinstall

[05:53] <ZEROCOOL> OK
[05:53] <alien8ed> Ubuntu says I don't have the correct permissions to write to my music partition, so I can't put anything on it.
[05:54] <Toma-> alien8ed: can you put your /etc/fstab file up on pastebin?
[05:54] <Toma-> !pastebin
[05:54] <alien8ed> How can I change the permissions on this partition
[05:54] <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)
[05:54] <ubuntu_user07> since i am running the updater to 7.04 can i still do other stuff while it goes?
[05:54] <strabes> kristopher: there's a few ways. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140920
[05:54] <zcat[1] > alien8ed: sudo chown user /music
[05:54] <jrib> ubuntu_user07: yes!
[05:54] <cables> ubuntu_user07, everything except installing packages.
[05:54] <cables> ubuntu_user07, and uninstalling
[05:54] <ubuntu_user07> it said failed to connect to compiz.net
[05:55] <ubuntu_user07> what can i do to fix that
[05:55] <tgill431> you can surf the intenet while it loads
[05:55] <tgill431> did you want to install beryl?
[05:55] <tgill431> user07
[05:56] <ubuntu_user07> i just clicked the upgrade button to upgrade and it gave me that error
[05:56] <tgill431> odd
[05:56] <zcat[1] > alien8ed: assuming it's a linux filesystem, the problem will be ownership and/or permissions of the directories; it needs to be owned or at least writeable by ordinary users.
[05:56] <ubuntu_user07> any ideas?
[05:56] <tgill431> installing feisty?
[05:57] <zcat[1] > alien8ed: if it's a fat32 filesystem, the whole thing has one owner and permissions throughout, that gets set in /etc/fstab
[05:57] <ubuntu_user07> yeah i have 6.10 installed and i want to update
[05:57] <kenthomson> Good Morning, Everyone! :-)
[05:57] <zcat[1] > hi ken
[05:57] <kenthomson> zcat[1] : yo!
[05:58] <ubuntu_user07> what can i do to get the upgrade?
[05:58] <kenthomson> ubuntu_user07: sudo aptitude update update && sudo aptitude upgrade && sudo aptitude dis-upgrade [though you have been warned, it may go horribly wrong] 
[05:58] <tgill431> anybody know if the site for compiz.net is down or anything?
[05:58] <ubuntu_user07> so i can't just use the button?
[05:58] <alien8ed> zcat1 the sudo chown user command worked...thanks a lot!
[05:58] <kenthomson> ubuntu_user07: make it "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[05:58] <stalefist> can someone tell me how to unmount drives plz
[05:58] <kenthomson> ubuntu_user07: that's the same thing, go ahead and press it
[05:59] <hitmanWilly> stalefist, umount
[05:59] <stalefist> ty
[05:59] <Pelo> stalefist,  sudo unmount /mountpoint

[05:59] <alien8ed> will that work when I reboot as well?
[05:59] <anirudha> Hi, does anyone know how to configure the Splash Screen in Fiesty?
[06:00] <kenthomson> alien8ed: sudo chown file is a permanent command and works after 100 reboots
[06:00] <kristopher> what should my nvidia kernel be called?
[06:00] <MSTK> ubuntu_user_07 - more simply, you could type "update-manager" and there will be a dialog that you can confirm
[06:00] <kenthomson> anirudha: go to add/remove and install a program called Splash Screen, than go to preferences>Splash screen and select others
[06:00] <tgill431> nice shot ken
[06:00] <crdlb> stalefist: try: compiz.org
[06:00] <kenthomson> kristopher: maybe nvidia-kernel-common or something
[06:00] <crdlb> too slow
[06:00] <kenthomson> tgill431: for what?
[06:00] <kristopher> thats what it is
[06:00] <Pelo> anirudha, check in the forum  but if it's about that kde splashscreen , check synaptic and remove all kde themes
[06:00] <kristopher> its not booting the right kernel
[06:01] <alien8ed> kenthomson thanks
[06:01] <tgill431> the sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[06:01] <crdlb> kristopher: that can be fixed
[06:01] <kristopher> is there an ubuntu lilo or grub configure thing
[06:01] <kristopher> in gnome?
[06:01] <kenthomson> tgill431: :-)
[06:01] <kenthomson> alien8ed: np
[06:01] <anirudha> kenthomson, Thanks for the help. I will try it out. Btw, this method works for GNOME, right?
[06:01] <crdlb> kristopher: you mean it's choosing the wrong nvidia kernel module?
[06:01] <kenthomson> kristopher: yes there is i forget it's name let me check
[06:01] <ubuntu_user07> my upgrade seems stuck at fetching file 95/102
[06:01] <kristopher> naw, i'm only getting the generic kernel option on boot
[06:01] <kenthomson> anirudha: what method
[06:01] <crdlb> or it's actually choosing the wrong kernel?
[06:02] <crdlb> kristopher: look at your /var/log/Xorg.0.log what is the error?
[06:02] <anirudha> kenthomson, This program (Splash Screen) works for GNOME, right?
[06:02] <kenthomson> ubuntu_user07: if it's stuck and you reboot and if the planets align themselves to predict your doom, your upgrade is GONE ;-)
[06:02] <kenthomson> anirudha: yes absolutely
[06:02] <Quadin> lol
[06:02] <anirudha> kenthomson, Okay, thank you!
[06:02] <kenthomson> crdlb: you could tell him cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep WW
[06:02] <gregorovius> hey... stupid question: between release and release, do packages get updated, or just security / bugfixes?
[06:02] <kenthomson> anirudha: np
[06:02] <kenthomson> gregorovius: both happen
[06:02] <strabes> gregorovius: both
[06:03] <crdlb> kenthomson: actually EE is better
[06:03] <RememberPOL> What apt packages should I install for the remote system I'm SSH'ed to have a full X display so I can connect via XDMCP?
[06:03] <kenthomson> crdlb: ya, but i am talking about absolute essentials
[06:03] <gregorovius> I ask because since Feisty was released, I've hardly seen any updates
[06:03] <heintje> anybody who can help me, how to use a webcam under ubuntu while the other is WinXP

[06:03] <tgill431> what is the diffrence between generic kernel and the other one?
[06:03] <ubuntu_user07> thats the errors i get
[06:03] <strabes> gregorovius: There haven't been many updates since feisty was released
[06:03] <Pelo> !paste | ubuntu_user07

[06:03] <ubotu> tgill431: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[06:04] <kenthomson> ubuntu_user07: the server looks nuked or maybe your DNS is housed?
[06:04] <gregorovius> kenthomson, strabes, it's weird, since I used to get 10 new packages per hour when feisty was in beta
[06:04] <ubuntu_user07> i can connect to other sites fine
[06:04] <RememberPOL> ubuntu-desktop probably
[06:04] <kenthomson> crdlb: Is the generic kernel also including the SMP one?
[06:04] <crdlb> ubuntu_user07: change that to compiz.org

[06:04] <tgill431> ...reading
[06:04] <ubuntu_user07> how do i change it
[06:04] <kenthomson> gregorovius: read the last part of your sentence to get the answer of your question
[06:04] <crdlb> kenthomson: yes
[06:04] <Quadin> sould we be getting alot of updates?
[06:04] <crdlb> it has SMP builtin
[06:04] <strabes> gregorovius: yeah I had the same thing. It's dangerous to update your system that often though. I only do it about once a week or so
[06:04] <Quadin> I havent gotten that many
[06:04] <Pelo> Quadin,  not realy
[06:04] <crdlb> ubuntu_user07: edit your /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:04] <kristopher> (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)
[06:04] <gregorovius> kenthomson, should the pace of updates speed up in the next weeks?
[06:04] <Bajoran> hiyas, I'm trying to resize an ntfs partition so I can make some space for an ext partition, If I use gparted and look at the output, it errors with "bad sectors" detected, but I just ran chkdsk /f /r , defragmented, and restarted windows multiple times :X
[06:04] <Quadin> ok
[06:05] <kenthomson> crdlb: Does that mean if i update to a Core-2-Duo or a Core-2-Quad i can simply plug it in and ubuntu will fully utilise it? Or will i have to custom-compile stuff?
[06:05] <kristopher> how do i look at my grub/lilo options, because i think the kernel just wasn't added to the list
[06:05] <crdlb> kristopher: that implies that nvidia-glx isn't installed
[06:05] <kristopher> for some reason
[06:05] <Pelo> Bajoran,  so your nfts partition is fine ?
[06:05] <Bajoran> yees
[06:05] <kristopher> as i said, the boot options are only allowing me to boot the default kernel
[06:05] <Bajoran> I want to resize it to 60 gb
[06:05] <Bajoran> :X
[06:05] <crdlb> kenthomson: yes stock ubuntu will handle it 99%
[06:05] <ubuntu_user07> so i just change the compiz one?
[06:05] <kenthomson> gregorovius: How would i in this whole world know
[06:05] <crdlb> kristopher: the problem isn't the kernel
[06:05] <kenthomson> crdlb: whose stock?
[06:05] <Pelo> Bajoran, then go back in the live cd and rezise again
[06:06] <crdlb> kenthomson: I mean the default kernel
[06:06] <gregorovius> kenthomson, I don't know, just asking :)
[06:06] <Bajoran> it errors out with bad sectors pelo
[06:06] <Bajoran> :o
[06:06] <mtx1> just upgraded to fiesty and for some reason all of my text is now just boxes instead of letters anyone else have this problem or know how to fix?
[06:06] <demonspork> How do I increase the available resolutions in the resolution switcher?
[06:06] <kenthomson> kristopher: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:06] <Bajoran> i'd use ntfsresize manually but meh
[06:06] <crdlb> kristopher: sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-glx
[06:06] <Pelo> Bajoran,  have you tried again since you've defragged ?
[06:06] <tgill431> so generic is the standard i-386 kernel?
[06:06] <Bajoran> lots of 16 to divide
[06:06] <Bajoran> yes pelo
[06:06] <crdlb> you are missing the X module not the kerne module
[06:06] <Bajoran> just 1 min ago too
[06:06] <crdlb> tgill431: no
[06:06] <craigbass1976> I installed curl from source.  Can someone tell me how to uninstall it?
[06:06] <crdlb> tgill431: generic is the kernel for everyone else
[06:06] <crdlb> except the bare 386
[06:07] <kenthomson> crdlb: does that mean all my programs GIMP/etc which are originally written for a single cre x86 system work fully with a core-2-duo (that is one of the cores doesn't go unutilised)?
[06:07] <ras> Im a Ubuntu edgy eft user, I have a really stable system now, is there any real reason to dist-upgrade?
[06:07] <crdlb> kenthomson: as long as they're multithreaded
[06:07] <kristopher> i've reinstalled it a few times
[06:07] <kristopher> but i'll try with apt-get i guess
[06:07] <sangre> hi, do i need to do anything special to mount an ide drive using a usb cable in ubuntu, or should just connecting it mount it automatically?
[06:07] <RememberPOL> All instructions for enabling xdmcp are with the assumption that you have GUI access already but say you're on a remote connection through SSH, does anyone know the command line way?
[06:07] <tgill431> oh ok i mean the 686 kernel right?
[06:07] <Pelo> ras,  if you are happy you don't need to upgrade
[06:07] <crdlb> kristopher: you're missing nvidia-glx clearly
[06:07] <kenthomson> crdlb: are they? Inkscape, blender, GIMP, firefox, are those multithreaded?
[06:07] <crdlb> kenthomson: they should be in general
[06:07] <kristopher> crdlb:  yah, thats what i'm thinking.  But synamtic is telling me differently
[06:08] <ras> Pelo: but am I missing out of ant "fiesty fun"?
[06:08] <kristopher> time to start it up again
[06:08] <kenthomson> demonspork: sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and select most of the defaults but in the monitor section go to Advanced and manually key in your Horizontal and Vertical frequency ranges (check on google or your monitor manual) and maybe that should do the trick or you are in for some research
[06:08] <crdlb> kenthomson: there's nothing you can do that will significantly improve the utilization of a dual core ubuntu system
[06:08] <crdlb> so just don't worry ;)
[06:08] <Foon> WOO, I finally got my router to route!!! :D :D :D Darned Bridge mode on my modem turned out to be the answer
[06:09] <Hamm_sandw> yay i'm so happyyay
[06:09] <kenthomson> craigbass1976: cd to that directory which contains the extracted tarball and read the README it will tell you about a script like "uninstall.sh" Do a sudo chmod-u+rwx <scripname> and run it like ./<script-name>
[06:09] <Bajoran> is it a bad idea to try to run a program like wow with wine directly off a mounted ntfs drive? :X
[06:09] <Pelo> ras,  there isnt, much fun in feisty , the only things that are realy different if your system works on edgy is compiz pre installed and  automaticaly loading codecs, if you already have those in edgy you'Re fine
[06:09] <RememberPOL> Is dpkg the main command line utility for package management?
[06:09] <kenthomson> ras: I should think if you want to be with the times
[06:10] <disinterested> i found a working kiba-dock package
[06:10] <kenthomson> ras: We were all stable in the forest/living in caves and hunting but we started building jungles of concrete, right? Though if you enable the backport repo, your edgy will almost be feisty, still "almost"
[06:10] <tgill431> im out for the night , I will return for  sure
[06:10] <GigaClon> RememberPOL, only for .deb you download
[06:11] <deathguppie> alright.. trying ubuntu comming from gentoo.. anyone figured out how to get a stable build environment???
[06:11] <demonspork> kenthomson Did you mistype anything in that because it is saying that it can't find the dkpg-reconfigure command
[06:11] <RememberPOL> GigaClon: What's the most useful interface to aptitude/apt-get via cli?
[06:11] <kenthomson> crdlb: that is so disappointing and satisfying in the same go
[06:11] <GigaClon> RememberPOL, I don't know I just use Synaptic
[06:12] <deathguppie> I'm trying to build Crystal Space from SVN, anyone here made it work??
[06:12] <kenthomson> RememberPOL: for .debs you have the dpkg thing, but if you want system wide package management, we have apt-get and aptitude and a GUI-Synaptic and it's adaptiation GUI-Add/Remove
[06:12] <ubuntu_user07> so whats the easiest way to upgrade ubuntu releases
[06:12] <Bajoran> could anyone suggest a commandline for ntfs resize to resize /dev/hda1 to 60gb as an ntfs partition using --bad-sectors ? :X
[06:12] <someothernick> RememberPOL: aptitude i think
[06:12] <RememberPOL> thanks
[06:13] <kenthomson> demonspork: sudo dpkg reconfigure-xserver xorg
[06:13] <RememberPOL> ubuntu_user07: apt-get upgrade
[06:13] <Pelo> ubuntu_user07,  the easiest way to upgrade release is to mount your /home folder to a seperate partition and clean install each release
[06:13] <kenthomson> ubuntu_user07: press that freakin' button and hide under the closet and pray that everything works fine
[06:13] <RememberPOL> lol
[06:14] <kristopher> yah, i have no clue whats wrong
[06:14] <yipe> is there a way I can use bash to spit out random numbers of a specified length?
[06:14] <Hamm_sandw> i know this is a total noobish question but .... what is the keyboard shortcut for switching between desktop spaces?
[06:14] <kenthomson> kristopher: what's bothering you, that we all are so indifferent to you?
[06:14] <crdlb> kristopher: did you try sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-glx; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx ?
[06:14] <Pelo> RememberPOL,  I am fairly sure that sudo apt-get upgrade will not upgrade a distro to the next release
[06:14] <DARKGuy> Hamm_sandw: control+alt+left arrow/right arrow - those are the ones I know anyways, in Gnome :P
[06:14] <kenthomson> Hamm_sandw: ctrl=alt-<right-arrow>
[06:14] <kristopher> no, i haven't gotten a new package yet.
[06:14] <kristopher> we'll see
[06:14] <yipe> cat /dev/urandom was a good try but failed on both being not numbers, and always returning an infinite number of characters
[06:15] <Hamm_sandw> DARKGuy  you RULE  THNX!!
[06:15] <DARKGuy> Hamm_sandw: lol, welcome - sorry kenthomson :P
[06:15] <ras> ok my edgy is currently cutting edge [a little blunt on some areas]  but i run atomix, all backports and beryl, but i heard CNR would be in fiesty and i heard it was cool
[06:15] <RememberPOL> Pelo: I never said it would, but it will upgrade his ubuntu release.
[06:15] <torshido> why does mutt depend on postfix?
[06:15] <Hamm_sandw> i'm so totally stoaked to have this fully functional on my new laptop
[06:15] <Hamm_sandw> wireless with wpa and all
[06:15] <Pelo> RememberPOL,  no it won't  it will upgrade the packages
[06:15] <Hamm_sandw> someone pinch me
[06:15] <DARKGuy> lucky, heh
[06:15] <Bajoran> *D
[06:16] <dustin> how do i enable my 3d acceleration on my nvidia card without crashing my x server
[06:16] <kenthomson> DARKGuy: never mind, as long as we push unsuspecting strangers comming here into the abyss by making them think this is an all-answering channel we are both equally evi
[06:16] <DARKGuy> anybody knows how to remove the huge arrow icon thing when I make a link to a folder/program in my desktop? (Gnome)
[06:16] <Mixx> dustin use envy
[06:16] <dn> dustin: by crash you mean fglrx crashes it?
[06:16] <crdlb> Pelo: the difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade is that dist-upgrade will install new packages that were not previously installed
[06:16] <kenthomson> ras: you willing to pay for propriety stuff?
[06:16] <dn> i used envy yesterday on my ATI and it killed my xorg.conf
[06:16] <DARKGuy> kenthomson: LOL xD but don't tell that to the others! they must not know our evil plan :o
[06:16] <dustin> how do i enable 3d acceleration on my nvidia card without crashing my x server
[06:16] <deathguppie> does anyone know where I can find a package for Freetype2???
[06:16] <Hamm_sandw> afk a while brb
[06:16] <Mixx> dustin use envy
[06:16] <kenthomson> Hamm_sandw: what is "stoacked"
[06:16] <RememberPOL> Pelo: And the packages make up his release.
[06:16] <dustin> jcvhgvc
[06:16] <DARKGuy> maybe he meant shocked? x)
[06:16] <crdlb> Mixx: don't recommend envy please
[06:17] <Mixx> crdlb why not? works great for me
[06:17] <RememberPOL> ubuntu_user07: For a distro upgrade, try this: gksu update-manager -c
[06:17] <deathguppie> dustin: .. what card are you using??
[06:17] <crdlb> !worksforme | Mixx
[06:17] <ubotu> Mixx: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[06:17] <deadchip> how can i switch the architecture?
[06:17] <Mixx> blah blah blah
[06:17] <Mixx> any concrete reason?
[06:17] <kenthomson> dustin: do a "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver", see if it contains a line called Driver nvidia
[06:17] <deadchip> i've changed the system to an AMD 64, now i wonder if i can switch without reinstallation
[06:17] <dustin> nvidia geforce fx5200
[06:17] <dustin> pci
[06:17] <kenthomson> Mixx: envy is evil
[06:17] <crdlb> Mixx: yes, it *will* break every time ubuntu pushes a kernel upgrade
[06:18] <Mixx> so uninstall it and reinstall it like i just did
[06:18] <kenthomson> RememberPOL: what's that -c?
[06:18] <deathguppie> dustin: it works with the nv driver.. but not nvidia right?
[06:18] <Pelo> !upgrade > ubuntu_user07
[06:18] <Mixx> i guess the point is
[06:18] <kenthomson> dustin: ain't than an AGP
[06:18] <Mixx> envy shouldn't be needed
[06:18] <Mixx> nvidia drivers should be easier to install
[06:18] <RememberPOL> kenthomson:   -c, --check-dist-upgrades                        Check if a new distribution release is available
[06:19] <kenthomson> Mixx: tell me what is envy?
[06:19] <deathguppie> kenthomson: no the last PCI card from nvidia was the 5200
[06:19] <kenthomson> RememberPOL: ok
[06:19] <kenthomson> deathguppie: thats news
[06:19] <dustin> i have installed the drivers before but when i enter the command to enable 3d acceleration and restart my xserver crashes
[06:19] <Mixx> kenthomson it's a script to install video drivers
[06:19] <deathguppie> well.. the last one I owned.. heh
[06:19] <kenthomson> Mixx: And from where does it get the video drivers?
[06:19] <Mixx> kenthomson use with caution as like is being warned here, it can break stuff
[06:19] <kenthomson> dustin: nvidia?
[06:19] <RememberPOL> Mixx: I totally agree with the basic uselessness of envy ;x
[06:20] <deathguppie> dustin: what command??
[06:20] <Mixx> !doesn'tworkforme | crdlb
[06:20] <dustin> I can't remember I have slept since the last time i looked it up to enter it
[06:20] <kenthomson> CAN someone help me setup two monitors one on my nvidia fx-5200 VGA and the other on my motherboard ASUS A7V-400MX's VGA? HMM..?
[06:20] <kenthomson> !doesn'tworkforme
[06:21] <cyberclone> hi
[06:21] <Mixx> heh
[06:21] <crdlb> that's not a factoid
[06:21] <hitmanWilly> !worksforme
[06:21] <deathguppie> dustin: just edit the /etc/X11/xorg.config file by hand that is all you need to do
[06:21] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.

[06:21] <kenthomson> hitmanWilly: i was trying doesN'T
[06:21] <dustin> I have never done that before
[06:21] <crdlb> !doesn't work
[06:21] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[06:21] <axl000> hi
[06:21] <crdlb> there is that one ^^
[06:22] <dustin> can you guide me to some documentation to take the proper steps
[06:22] <Pelo> can wwe stop playing with the bot
[06:22] <deathguppie> dustin: pull the file up in a text editor and go down untill you find "Section Device"
[06:22] <kenthomson> dustin: have you gone to Africa before? If no than how can you drink Afrikan-bloodhound's blood? Similarly if you haven't installed LInux before, have would have edited X.org, but now as you are in Africa (linux) might as well try and drink the blood (edit the xorg.conf)
[06:22] <axl000> why ubuntu 7.04 recognizes my hard drive as a sata drive , but its a ide
[06:22] <deathguppie> dustin: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:22] <kenthomson> crdlb: that is so :-)
[06:22] <axl000> sorry for my bad english
[06:22] <pr0nGuy> How can I install the help packages for gimp on Edgy?

[06:23] <gregorovius> axl000, the the sata driver now manages all disks
[06:23] <hitmanWilly> axl000, that's a 2.6.20 kernel thing, it calls pretty much everything sata
[06:23] <Pelo> pr0nGuy,  look in synaptic for gimp you'll be able to tell which package it is I am sure,  probably with a doc at theend
[06:23] <dn> I am having a problem when I boot with kbx. It gives me an error message. I think it's the result of doing a xorg.conf reconfigure. Here's an img of the error: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/NJ_Hewitt/Screenshot-gnome-settings-daemon.png
[06:23] <crdlb> Pelo: -phigh
[06:23] <axl000> ohhh
[06:23] <crdlb> it gives way too many options w/o it
[06:23] <Pelo> crdlb,  what ?
[06:24] <axl000> im having problems whit that
[06:24] <crdlb> Pelo: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[06:24] <kenthomson> hitmanWilly: really i still have a hda and not a sda with both my PATA drives in feisty
[06:24] <dustin> ok after I install the drivers and open up the file to edit it what do i do when editing to enable 3d acceleration
[06:24] <axl000> vmware have problems working whit sda
[06:24] <Pelo> oh
[06:24] <kenthomson> crdlb: what is -phigh exactly?
[06:24] <crdlb> kenthomson: only ask high priority questions
[06:24] <dougie> OK! Now i really need to fix this cause its really starting to bug me....even if i can just change the default action somehow so it doesn't try and run the photo importer when i connect my camera.
[06:24] <deathguppie> dustin: just go to the part Section "Device"
[06:24] <hitmanWilly> kenthomson, really? it calls all mine sata
[06:25] <crdlb> kenthomson: there's also -pcritical which asks none at all
[06:25] <kenthomson> crdlb: ok, i though you were telling me to ask only HIGH PRIORITY question in the channel ;-)
[06:25] <deathguppie> dustin: there you will see something that says  Driver "nv"
[06:25] <dustin> alright i will do these things you tell me then come back and let you know
[06:25] <kenthomson> hitmanWilly: not with me still let me check
[06:25] <dustin> brb
[06:25] <deathguppie> dustin: change "nv" to "nvidia"
[06:25] <dn> anyone get a look at my kbx error?
[06:25] <DARKGuy> anybody knows how to remove the huge arrow icon thing when I make a link to a folder/program in my desktop? (Gnome)
[06:26] <kenthomson> hitmanWilly: i have a hda1,2,3 and a hdb1,2,
[06:26] <dougie> when i connect my digi camera to the computer it brings up thie Import Photos wizard thing. And it says at the bottom Loading camera drivers from '/usr/lib/libgphoto2/2.3.0'.... and eventually it errors out something about can't find driver or something
[06:26] <kenthomson> deathguppie: maybe it's Driver vesa
[06:26] <hitmanWilly> wow, it changed mine back, actually, that's REALLY weird...
[06:26] <kenthomson> DARKGuy: you are so very right, it's obnocious
[06:26] <dougie> here we go just error'd and it says "An error occurred in the io-library ('Unspecified error') Could not query kernel driver of device
[06:27] <kenthomson> hitmanWilly: are are you boozed?
[06:27] <DARKGuy> kenthomson: huh? o_O
[06:27] <kenthomson> DARKGuy: obnoxious
[06:27] <kenthomson> DARKGuy: not you that emblem
[06:27] <dougie> if i uninstall libgphoto completely it will show up just as a drive on my desktop but i have to reinstall it because it removed ubuntu desktop and a bunch of other stuff like wine and stuff which are all dependencies on libgphoto aparently
[06:27] <Pelo> dougie,  does it mention which driver ?
[06:27] <dustin> ok I am downloading and installing the restricted modules package for nvidia right now
[06:27] <DARKGuy> kenthomson: oh, yeah xD
[06:27] <dougie> no
[06:27] <dustin> then i will install nvidia-glx
[06:28] <DARKGuy> kenthomson: but it's bigger than the windows shortcut arrow thing 
[06:28] <hitmanWilly> kenthomson, no, really :) Just last week it was calling both of them sd...i know because i reformatted the ide one
[06:28] <DARKGuy> like, what the hell!
[06:28] <parad0x`> BERYL
[06:28] <dustin> then edit the X!! file
[06:28] <Pelo> dougie, check the forum
[06:28] <dougie> Pelo: it just says that stuff....the driver its trying to load is the one for Panasonic DMC-FZ20
[06:28] <Gat0rvean> Can anyone recommend a very good source to learn more about linux? Such as a manual in PDF format I can reference and read through?

[06:29] <Pelo> dougie,  this is a digital camera not a webcam ? why is it trying to load drivers?  it should just mount as a usb drive
[06:29] <DARKGuy> kenthomson: and it's annoying, considering the rest of my icons have no big-huge-like-HEY arrow above them :/
[06:29] <dustin> well i might as well shoot the breeze in here for a while my internet connection sucks it is going to take me damn near 20 moins to install
[06:29] <dustin> lol
[06:29] <kenthomson> DARKGuy: SAME IS MY problem too
[06:29] <Pelo> dougie,  did you try to install your camera's window driver on ubuntu using wine ?????
[06:29] <dougie> Pelo: not sure but i think i just found a fix.....
[06:30] <DARKGuy> kenthomson: Yay, we can share problems too :D (lol....) no fix yet? x(
[06:30] <dougie> Pelo: no it just has one built into libgphoto already i guess
[06:30] <kristopher> bloody 'ell
[06:30] <dustin> there is some guy in france who just wrote 352 drivers for webcams in linux
[06:30] <dustin> even for the cheap $20 ones
[06:30] <Pelo> dustin,  he did just do it ti took him 4 years
[06:31] <Liquido`sleep> i hate evangelion it took off 2 nights in a row >.<
[06:31] <dustin> yeah i know that
[06:31] <kristopher> So i've reinstalled everything, yadda yadda
[06:31] <dustin> it isn't an overnight thing
[06:31] <Pelo> that is what open source is al about
[06:31] <kenthomson> Liquido`sleep: what is that
[06:31] <dn> hey guys here is the error i get on boot and i'm having some issue with my keyboard and mouse: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18516/
[06:31] <Liquido`sleep> kenthomson: anime >.<
[06:31] <deltaphc> he didn't write 352 drivers. he wrote a smaller set of drivers for 352 different webcams
[06:31] <deathguppie> dustin: it might be vesa instead of nv..
[06:31] <kenthomson> Pelo: yeah sweating like hell if even all you want to do is get an goddamn program it install and the so very common hardware to function
[06:31] <deathguppie> nv is the opensource driver for nvidia
[06:31] <Pelo> liquiddoom,   #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:32] <dustin> vesa?
[06:32] <deathguppie> ya.
[06:32] <Liquido`sleep> Pelodoom okay
[06:32] <deathguppie> look for a section where it says Driver  "vesa"
[06:32] <Pelo> kenthomson,  no one is keeping you from going back to windows
[06:32] <deathguppie> and change "vesa" to "nvidia"
[06:32] <dustin> ok
[06:32] <deathguppie> that loads your nvidia driver
[06:32] <dustin> and that will enable the 3d acceleration
[06:32] <deathguppie> it really is that simple
[06:33] <deathguppie> dustin: yes
[06:33] <dustin> thank you for clearing that up
[06:33] <Pelo> dn,  I think you'll have better luck looking up your problem in the forum
[06:33] <nixternal> OK you GNOME'ies, where is my power off or reboot options in the shutdown dialog?
[06:33] <deathguppie> but if  X crashes.. change it back to "vesa" and come back and say something..

[06:35] <cje> hi guys, sorry to ask such a really stupid question.  I am a new kubuntu user.  I am trying to delete some files.  This is a relatively fresh install of Edgy, but I do have some big video files I would like to delete.  There is no trash bin icon on my desktop by default.  Is there a graphical tool I could use to delete these files?  rmdir -Rf ~file/path doesn't work.
[06:35] <Liquido`sleep> hey any idea how to fix file transfer on kopete with icq plug in. It just not works
[06:35] <alien8ed> can someone tell me the command that lets you play protected dvds in feisty?

[06:36] <kenthomson> nixternal: i think you are having some other tty open and are  currently in an underprivilidged account, try this open a terminal and do "sudo shutdown -r now" and that will reboot your machine, see if now those icons appear
[06:36] <mpt> hi nixternal :-)
[06:36] <nixternal> kenthomson: I know that will work
[06:36] <DanaG> Oh, and fbsplash and suspend2, too.

[06:36] <kenthomson> cje: right-click delete
[06:37] <pr0nGuy> Is there a open source version of Visual basic. NET?
[06:37] <DanaG> Though suspend2 doesn't show status with fbsplash.  It just says "Suspending Consoles".

[06:40] <dustin> what was the address for the file to edit for the nvidia driver again
[06:40] <[Flux] > yup yup

[06:40] <mpt> then log out and log in again

[06:40] <crdlb> [Flux] : so you're using Xgl?
[06:41] <[Flux] > crdlb: yes i am
[06:41] <crdlb> and running games like DISPLAY=:0 game ?

[06:41] <ericu> I have a noob question, I would like to download the new released pidgin, how do I go about doing that with the whole repository thing
[06:41] <dustin> yes thank you
[06:41] <[Flux] > i run WoW through WINE

[06:41] <mt|chamby> anyone that can help me with something?
[06:42] <Hamm_sand> i have another noobish question:  how to you get filebrowser to show a list by default instead of huge icons
[06:42] <mt|chamby> i have the "ntoskrnl.exe" windows boot problem since i have installed ubuntu on a seperate hard drive
[06:42] <mpt> Pelo, the Gnome session information had forgotten that I wanted a window manager. Deleting it (or trashing it, in this case) restored the default session, which includes metacity.
[06:42] <punsad> can I try out beryl with live ubuntu cd? or do I have to install it to hd?
[06:42] <dougie> crdlb: sorry
[06:42] <Pelo> ericu, pidgin and gaim are the same I think it is still called gaim in the repos,  the repos will have the latest version supported by the ubuntu team, if you want a newer one you have to get it from the gaim /pidgin site
[06:42] <therealnanotube> Hamm_sand: view > view as list +
[06:43] <therealnanotube> Hamm_sand: view > view as list ?
[06:43] <DanaG> Oh, missing ntldr?  I think you may need to use the "map" thingy in Grub, if there are two separate drives.
[06:43] <Skaag> how do I skip formatting a drive in the ubuntu installer?
[06:43] <Hamm_sand> derr  n/m  heh
[06:43] <Pelo> mpt, I think I get it
[06:43] <Hamm_sand> i fingered it out
[06:43] <Skaag> I want to keep the data in there
[06:43] <dustin> how much system memory is required to run beryl window manager
[06:43] <mpt> Unfortunately that gets me no closer to reporting the bug that caused metacity to go away in the first place.
[06:43] <ericu> Pelo, do I have to add the site to the source list?
[06:43] <Pelo> Skaag,  the guide or manual way, yiou just don't check the format box
[06:44] <punsad> Skaag: during install (text mode).. you can select 'go back' and it should take you to the install menu
[06:44] <chamby> can anyone help me with changing my boot.ini windows file without being able to boot windows? :/
[06:44] <Skaag> punsad: i'm there now
[06:44] <Pelo> ericu,  no , sorry , google for it , but I think you are probably better off with the repos package,  gaim is tied into a bunch of things
[06:44] <chamby> or any other fix to the "ntoskrnl.exe" file
[06:45] <punsad> Skaag: isn't there a 'go back' type option in the bottom left?
[06:45] <Skaag> pelo & punsad; is that the option I need to choose?
[06:45] <Skaag> i'm in the "rescue a broken system" mode
[06:45] <ericu> Pelo, so if the update manager doesn't see receive the new upgrade it is harder to upgrade?
[06:45] <clever> what could cause this: -rwx------ 1 1039 1039 397274 2005-12-02 22:55 /usr/sbin/sshd
[06:45] <Pelo> !ntfs > chamby  I think you'll have to install ntfs write support first and when you can access the file try asking for help in ##windows
[06:45] <clever> it seems to be preventing sshd from starting up
[06:45] <punsad> chamby: just mount the win dir.  you need to be able to write to an ntfs partition
[06:45] <Pelo> ericu,  more or less
[06:46] <Pelo> Skaag,  probably it's hard to tell we dont, realy know what you want to do
[06:46] <chamby> damn, i wish it was that easy for me to understand that
[06:46] <chamby> i got ubuntu 2 hours ago, and my internet has been down for the past 1.5 hours
[06:46] <Skaag> pelo: I just don't want the partitions to change...
[06:46] <chamby> so i really dont understand much yet
[06:46] <crdlb> !info ntfs-config | chamby
[06:46] <ubotu> chamby: ntfs-config: Enable/disable write support for any NTFS devices. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 41 kB, installed size 432 kB
[06:47] <Skaag> pelo: but the option in the guided mode or manual show me the partition as it exists, which is fine, and the option is to write the partition table and continue
[06:47] <punsad> Skaag: isn't there also a 'manually partition' option. once selected - you should be able to select 'don't partition' or just don't make any changes and skip ahead
[06:47] <Skaag> will writing the partition table erase my data?
[06:47] <[Flux] > okay i fixed my problem
[06:47] <[Flux] > yay
[06:47] <burnerx> can anyone help me setup icecast2 & mpd ?
[06:47] <punsad> can I try out beryl with live ubuntu cd? or do I have to install it to hd?
[06:47] <Skaag> there is no "don't make any changes" unfortunately :-(
[06:47] <Pelo> Skaag,   / will need to be formated anyway,   /home and /swap won't have to   if you know about partitionning try the manual option it will give you all the tools you need to make it instal your way
[06:47] <Skaag> I am in the manual partitioning
[06:47] <crdlb> punsad: depends on the card
[06:47] <punsad> crdlb: I
[06:47] <crdlb> punsad: what video card do you have?
[06:47] <ericu> Pelo, I wanted to test the new beta version of pidgin if I download a rpm, how would I go about installing and running it?
[06:47] <Pelo> Skaag,  is this your first linux ?
[06:47] <Skaag> pelo: but in the current format, /home is under / and not in a separate partition
[06:47] <punsad> crdlb: I've got an nvidia 'el cheapo 6150 integrated
[06:48] <crdlb> punsad: then it's tricky
[06:48] <chamby> i'm sorry guys but i am lost, i dont understand where i need to put the ntfs-config at
[06:48] <chamby> :[
[06:48] <Pelo> ericu,  don't get a rpm , get a deb or the source
[06:48] <Skaag> pelo: no but this is my first time trying to install a distribution on top of a drive that contains data
[06:48] <crdlb> punsad: you have to enable the restricted driver, sudo modprobe nvidia, then ctrl+alt+bksp
[06:48] <punsad> crdlb: how bout it I actually install it - is it still tricky?
[06:48] <crdlb> punsad: not at all
[06:49] <punsad> crdlb: what's tricky about typing sudo modprobe nvida then ctrl-al-bksp?
[06:49] <crdlb> punsad: I'm not sure that would work
[06:49] <punsad> crdlb: gotcha
[06:49] <crdlb> you may need a sudo lrm-manager first
[06:49] <punsad> crldb: thanks for the ideas :)
[06:49] <Pelo> Skaag,  the ubuntu installer will reformat / no matter what , if /home is in it /home will be reformated ,  leave the installer,  start gparted from the menu ,   resize your / partiton ,  make a new one , move your /home to the new partition and proceed from there
[06:49] <crdlb> punsad: normally you reboot after enabling the restricted driver
[06:49] <PX4n> hi
[06:50] <Skaag> pelo: alright gotcha
[06:50] <punsad> crdlb: I see
[06:50] <haru> hi.. i have an old monitor which supports only 60Hz at 1024x768 resolution. i also have a radeon 9250. i would like to know how i could manually force a higher refresh rate at the same resolution.
[06:50] <crdlb> haru: if that's all it supports, no
[06:50] <crdlb> !modeline | haru
[06:50] <hwMoD> @ your service
[06:50] <ubotu> haru: A Modeline is a config line in the X server configuration file that gives info about a connected display and how to drive it at a specified display resolution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFree86_Modeline for more details. Here are 2 links to generate modelines which fit your monitor: http://bohne-lang.de/spec/linux/modeline/ and http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl
[06:50] <punsad> Skaag: so yuo are doing a text based install?
[06:50] <Skaag> yes
[06:51] <crdlb> that's how you force it though ^^
[06:51] <haru> crdlb, but on the win systems i can force it upto 85Hz
[06:51] <ericu> Pelo, I have a tar.gz of the source, how do I compile it?
[06:51] <Skaag> how do I run gparted not form the menu?
[06:51] <crdlb> haru: then try a modeline
[06:51] <Skaag> it asks me to write previous changes... what previous changes??
[06:51] <Pelo> ericu,  http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[06:51] <ericu> Pelo, thank you very much
[06:51] <Pelo> np
[06:51] <Skaag> i'm really freaked about this operation
[06:51] <Pelo> bookmark that, it's very useful
[06:51] <punsad> Skaag: what is on your screen right now?
[06:52] <Pelo> Skaag,  if you can boot the live cd ( even dapper or feisty ) you can do it from the gui
[06:52] <Skaag> the menu that shows "detect network", "install base system", partition disks, etc.
[06:52] <punsad> Skaag: that means you are done with the partitioning, no?
[06:52] <Pelo> Skaag,  I can't help you if you are in a text install I dont, know enough
[06:52] <Skaag> ok the fs still has some errors on it, running e2fsck on it
[06:53] <Skaag> punsad: no it's a manual rescue mode which doesn't do anything beyond mounting drives and detecting network devices
[06:53] <Skaag> punsad: from here I can try to do a bunch of stuff...
[06:53] <punsad> Skaag: so when booting from CD - you selected rescue mode... not install, is that right?
[06:53] <Skaag> yes
[06:54] <punsad> Okay... so what's the problem right now... is there one?
[06:54] <slop> what command would i use to list all files in a directory, as well as all files in all subdirectories, and send them all into a text file?
[06:54] <Skaag> well I just discovered the target drive still has fsck errors on it so i'm fixing that first
[06:54] <Skaag> hopefully after that I will be able to resize the drive and move /home to a different partition
[06:55] <punsad> slop: ls * > foo.txt
[06:55] <Skaag> and also /var
[06:55] <dermoth> 3bhelp
[06:55] <slop> punsad: that will do all recursive directories as well?
[06:55] <punsad> slop: find . -name "*" -print > foo.txt
[06:56] <sethk> Skaag, copy the home directory.  Don't change the actual location of home until _after_ you clone the /home tree
[06:56] <Pelo> g'night folks
[06:56] <xmb> find . , would suffice
[06:56] <TWiSTEDSO> can anyone help out , got some problems with the wlan card , its a level one Wpc-0301 H/W 4 , when running lspci it gives me 02:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI but when using the RT261 drivers the machine just keeps hanging. ?
[06:56] <punsad> xmb: good point
[06:56] <gldvxx> does anyone know how to reset the bios on an alienware m5500?
[06:56] <xmb> http://losers.yore.ma/~merchelo/tor/
[06:56] <slop> punsad: that will do all files in the current dir and its subcursive files and dirs?
[06:57] <punsad> slop: did you try it?
[06:57] <punsad> slop: it will
[06:57] <slop> punsad: yes, thank you :)
[06:57] <slop> punsad: works perfect
[06:57] <zeroday> who needs help with ati or nvidia
[06:57] <demonspork> what do I need to install to get a DVD decoder in Ubuntu?
[06:58] <Skaag> sethk: can you elaborate on that?
[06:58] <zeroday> demonspork: w32codecs
[06:58] <punsad> slop: per xmb's suggestion - 'find . > foo.txt' works just as well
[06:58] <zeroday> !dvd | demonspork
[06:58] <ubotu> demonspork: 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
[06:58] <slop> punsad: it listed it all in backwards-alphabetical order! lol
[06:58] <punsad> demonspork: have you tried automatix?
[06:58] <Skaag> sethk: assuming i've created a new partition, I copy /home to that partition... now what?
[06:58] <zeroday> !automatix | punsad
[06:58] <ubotu> punsad: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[06:58] <sethk> Skaag, you add your new /home partition to /etc/fstab
[06:59] <sanityx> Hello all!
[06:59] <zeroday> hi
[06:59] <punsad> slop: try: find . | sort > foo.txt
[06:59] <Skaag> sethk: at what point do I add it to fstab?
[06:59] <sethk> Skaag, You also mount it (putting it in /etc/fstab will mount it on subsequent boots)
[06:59] <punsad> ubotu: that's fine with me... I just use apt-get foo anyway
[06:59] <sethk> Skaag, it really doesn't matter; /etc/fstab isn't consulted after boot
[06:59] <zeroday> punsad: ubotu is a bot
[06:59] <sethk> Skaag, well, unless you use a mount command that forces it to be reread.
[07:00] <Skaag> you mean until after reboot
[07:00] <punsad> zeroday: i thought that might be too much text in such a short period of time
[07:00] <Skaag> yah, a mount -a
[07:00] <zeroday> punsad: lol
[07:00] <punsad> brb
[07:00] <sethk> Skaag, right.  you can do a mount -a, or mount it manually (as in mount -t ext3 /dev/hdXX /home)
[07:00] <Skaag> ok
[07:00] <sethk> Skaag, assuming it's ext3, and of course using the correct partition, /dev/hda2, /dev/sda1, whatever it actually is
[07:00] <ninjagamer> Hello Im currently having trouble with ubuntu FF. After upgrading to FF from DD through the software update GUI everything works great. I decited to install the nvidia restricted driver. After doing this and rebooting I no longer have sound. I've been browsing the forums today with no luck. Any suggestions. I have a sound blaster live card.
[07:01] <slop> punsad: excellent, thank you
[07:01] <mtx1> just upgraded to fiesty and for some reason all of my text is now just boxes instead of letters anyone else have this problem or know how to fix?
[07:01] <slop> exit
[07:01] <Skaag> sethk: yah it's ext3
[07:01] <sethk> ninjagamer, there must be an incorrect PCI ID in the X config file.
[07:01] <sethk> ninjagamer, which is /etc/X11/xorg.conf, IIRC
[07:01] <mobutu> http://geekz.co.uk/lovesraymond/archive/taking-freedom-further
[07:02] <zeroday> mtx1: what gfx card?
[07:02] <sethk> Skaag, I left out one step
[07:02] <sethk> Skaag, if you mount, as I said, your new /home will hide your old /home
[07:02] <Skaag> oh?
[07:02] <mtx1> nvidia
[07:02] <ninjagamer> yes nvidia card
[07:02] <sethk> Skaag, so you need to rename it, as in    mv /home /old-home     for example
[07:02] <ninjagamer> i am getting the exact model number its a geforce 4
[07:02] <Skaag> sethk: ah yes, I will copy the stuff, make sure it works, then rename /home to /home.old
[07:02] <Skaag> yah we're on the same page
[07:03] <zeroday> mtx1: you lost the drivers in the upgrade you need to reinstall them
[07:03] <sethk> Skaag, right.  You could also boot the CD, mount / but not the new /home, and delete the old /home that way (without renaming).
[07:03] <[Flux] > hmm do i wanna install kde...
[07:03] <zeroday> ninjagamer: try the envy script
[07:03] <zeroday> [Flux] : yes
[07:03] <ant-> flux, no
[07:03] <mtx1> oh really? i thought it was a font issue or something ok cool i will try that tommorow
[07:03] <sethk> Skaag, potentially you have a short period where things are nasty, where you've renamed /home but haven't mounted the new /home
[07:03] <[Flux] > oh great, the vote is tied
[07:03] <[Flux] > thanks guys... lol
[07:03] <sethk> Skaag, if you have su enabled, and a /root shell running in a terminal, that's not a problem
[07:04] <ninjagamer> where can i find the envy script
[07:04] <ant-> [Flux]  have you played with fluxbuntu?
[07:04] <Skaag> sethk: I will probably rename and reboot before I mount the new home
[07:04] <sethk> Skaag, but if you use the sudo nonsense, you'll have that potential issue.
[07:04] <[Flux] > i havent used fluxbox in 2-3 years
[07:04] <[Flux] > lol
[07:04] <ant-> blasphemy
[07:04] <ant-> well i guess not much has changed :(
[07:04] <ninjagamer> the video card is a Geforce FX 5200 and teh sound card is a SB Live! vbalue EMU10k1x
[07:05] <zeroday> ninjagamer: whats wrong?
[07:05] <sethk> ninjagamer, look for the PCI id in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
[07:05] <ninjagamer> after installing the restricted drivers for my nvidia card in FF no longer have sound
[07:06] <sethk> ninjagamer, look for a line (in xorg.conf) starting with  "BusID"
[07:06] <ninjagamer> seth how do i open up xorg.conf
[07:06] <[Flux] > whats the best way to install kde, should i use the kubuntu-desktop or  just do kde + kdebase
[07:07] <sethk> ninjagamer, vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:07] <ant-> [Flux] : you have to goto hell to get kde last i heard
[07:07] <sethk> ninjagamer, or:   grep -i busid /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:07] <ninjagamer> ah ok
[07:07] <sethk> ninjagamer, or use some other editor; lots of ways.  The editor will say the file is read only, but that's ok, you are only looking (at least initially)
[07:07] <[Flux] > lol
[07:07] <ninjagamer> i know how to do grep from unix ok
[07:08] <ninjagamer> thank u very much gentlemen/ladies.....iwill continue troubleshooting this issue in the morning...thank yo ufor your time
[07:08] <ant-> [Flux]  : naw i think kde-desktop gets you want you want
[07:08] <testure> anybody know why bash doesn't like my script with arrays under ubuntu (works perfectly fine in fedora/suse)? It's just a simple definition.. dirs=( dir1 dir2 dir3 dir4 );
[07:09] <testure> I get "syntax error, unexpected '(' on line __"
[07:09] <[Flux] > okay, thanks ant- :)
[07:09] <ant-> [Flux]  : i mean kubuntu-desktop of course
[07:09] <fernando> hey
[07:09] <[Flux] > i just dont want to have to change the splash screens and stuff back to ubuntu
[07:09] <sethk> testure, some bash versions are more than a little odd.  I use zsh which does away with the problem
[07:09] <[Flux] > but there is a how-to on the forums, so i guess its not such a big deal to do that
[07:09] <sethk> testure, the answer to your question is "different version of bash", presumably.
[07:09] <testure> sethk: I assumed as much :\
[07:10] <ant-> [Flux]  : oh well i dunno about all that, i would read first if its important to you
[07:10] <testure> I'll look into zsh, never used it before
[07:10] <sethk> testure, zsh is a lot nicer, although I'm sure there is a fix for that bash problem.
[07:10] <testure> thanks for the tip
[07:11] <hitmanWilly> [Flux] , just be aware that kubuntu-desktop brings a massive amount of software with it, much of which you may not want/need
[07:11] <dinoerata> i think Beryl is pretty cool, but i dont understand why i do not see a save or ok button in settings manager, it never saves my settings
[07:11] <dinoerata> anyone uses Beryl
[07:11] <sethk> [Flux] , regardless of the size, you'll save infinite aggravation by using the meta-package
[07:12] <[Flux] > yeah
[07:12] <dinoerata> anyone uses desktop manager - Beryl ?
[07:13] <[Flux] > i think ill just do the base kde
[07:13] <[Flux] > and then add from there
[07:13] <thebillywayne> dinoerata, yeah.  why?
[07:13] <[Flux] > im also gonna remove beryl, its kinda useless, other than eyecandy..
[07:13] <dinoerata> cannot get it to save my settings
[07:13] <thebillywayne> dinoerata, strange.  does it work?
[07:13] <thebillywayne> dinoerata, as in, do you see animatiosn?
[07:13] <dinoerata> does not have an OK button
[07:14] <dinoerata> or save option
[07:14] <thebillywayne> dinoerata, no.  the close button does fine.  It alters the setup as you select different things.  No need to even close the window, really.
[07:14] <Nergar> why do i have wine9.33 and not wine 9.36??
[07:14] <Nergar> are ubuntu repositories outdated??
[07:14] <t0dk0n> Does anyone know how to make a 2nd gen ipod shuffle charge in Ubuntu?
[07:14] <testure> damn.. I get the same error in zsh
[07:15] <t0dk0n> it works fine with gtkpod, but for some reason, wont charge 0_o
[07:15] <TWiSTEDSO> how do i remove and old driver in teh ubuntu system ?
[07:15] <sethk> Nergar, not exactly.  A distro is always a bit behind, unless you use a beta distribution.
[07:15] <dinoerata> hmm, if i quit and then open the manager again, all the settings i had are gone and it reverts to what was there b/4
[07:15] <testure> I wonder my array is being declared properly.. strange though since it worked in fedora and suse
[07:15] <dinoerata> well as you said , its eye candy
[07:15] <dinoerata> guess i will just put up with it,
[07:16] <Nergar> thnx sethk
[07:16] <sethk> testure, can you check the bash version on the other distros?  (bash --version)
[07:16] <testure> nah, I don't have access to those machines right now. I'll have to check it out tomorrow morning when I get to the office
[07:17] <sethk> testure, ok.
[07:17] <testure> one of them is Suse 10 though, so I'd imagine it has 3.2.13
[07:17] <dustin> ok I am in the text file now i change nv to nvidia
[07:17] <dustin> correct
[07:18] <testure> I'm trying to port one of our web-apps to ubuntu so I can convince them to switch from fedora.. installer script is dead in the water though heheh :)
[07:18] <sanity_x> testure, eww fedora.
[07:18] <testure> yeah
[07:18] <sethk> testure, zsh will fix that right up  :)
[07:19] <sethk> 'night all, about to pass out here.  :)
[07:19] <testure> sethk: zsh gave me the same error :\
[07:19] <dustin> pelo?
[07:20] <jacquesmerde> yo, i just added a samba share, do i have to manually set up a username and password to access it from another computer?
[07:21] <Toma-> jacquesmerde: i do believe so yes
[07:21] <chamby> is there a way for me to edit the boot.ini file from ubuntu?
[07:21] <Toma-> !samba
[07:21] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[07:21] <zcat[1] > jacquesmerde: what I do (it might not be the best idea) is change security from 'user based' to 'share based'
[07:22] <zylthinking> Hi, all, I have some question on compile the kernel, and is there anyone can help me?
[07:22] <defjux> ask
[07:22] <zcat[1] > gets rid of all the password hassles. Not a good idea if untrusted people have access to your network though
[07:23] <zylthinking>  Hi, all, I have some question on compile the kernel, and is there anyone can help me?
[07:23] <jacquesmerde> zcat[1] : yeah, its a wireless network which i think my neighbours have accidentally used
[07:23] <MSTK> !ask
[07:23] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:23] <zcat[1] > jacquesmerde: ok, just ignore my suggestion then :)

[07:24] <merc_> hello
[07:25] <ben23>  hi, I am trying to set up ssl with apache 2 in feisty, but apache2-ssl-certificate is missing, and I don't know how to install it
[07:26] <ben23> there's also a bug report of that problem
[07:26] <jacquesmerde> do i just want smbpassword -a [my local username] ?
[07:26] <Toma-> jacquesmerde: yep
[07:27] <jacquesmerde> Toma-: it doesnt bother me, but why doesnt ubuntu if not give you a gui way of doing it, at least tell you something still has to be done?
[07:27] <zylthinking> I made the initrd through mkinitramfs -o initrd.img.2.6.21.1 and the initrd gernerated includes a directory named 2.6.20.15-gerneric, that is my current kernel, not my new kernel and the new kernel panic
[07:27] <Toma-> jacquesmerde: file a bug!
[07:27] <zylthinking> what can I do?
[07:27] <jacquesmerde> nah, its like that song, "i filed a bug and the bug won"
[07:27] <merc_> does having a swap partition make the os perform faster?
[07:28] <defjux> do i have to defrag?
[07:28] <zcat[1] > zylthinking: from memory, you give it the version number at the end if you're not building for the current (running) kernel..
[07:29] <alex777> anyone able to help with the apache2-ssl-certificate problem ?
[07:29] <Toma-> jacquesmerde: well the problem will continue to exist :(
[07:29] <Geoffrey2> could someone please check this link to see if they can actually see the video?   http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0449088/trailers-screenplay-B10000-235-2

[07:29] <Jack31> wooooooooooohoooooooo ubuntu and del
[07:29] <Jack31> l
[07:29] <defjux> dell is selling oem ubuntu???
[07:29] <merc_> anyone want to tell me if a swap partition makes the system much faster?
[07:29] <Jack31> defjux yup
[07:30] <defjux> merc, probably a bit.
[07:30] <defjux> Jack31: thats is some good news.
[07:30] <asc> I'm looking for a wysiwyg HTML editor.  Do mozilla-composer, Nvu, or SeaMokey appear in the repositories, possibly under different names?
[07:30] <hitmanWilly> merc, not really, its just acts like extra (slow) ram
[07:30] <zylthinking> zcat[1] :  give it the version number at the end to which?
[07:30] <xipietotec> does anyone know if avahi-autoipd is supposed to start on a failed dhclient *if you have disabled avahi in network manager*?
[07:30] <merc_> i got 2gb of ram, make much difference?
[07:30] <zcat[1] > zylthinking: hang on, I'll check..
[07:30] <tonyyarusso> asc: If anything, mozilla-composer.  I'll be making Nvu packages for Feisty soon though.
[07:30] <Jack31> http://www.fabianrodriguez.com/blog/archives/2007/04/30/its-d-day/
[07:31] <xipietotec> asc, nvu is in the repos, I think universe repositories, it's WYSIS
[07:31] <xipietotec> WYSIWYG
[07:31] <tonyyarusso> xipietotec: not in feisty
[07:31] <xipietotec> even
[07:31] <Grape_Juice> merc_:  Usually most people make a swap partition double the size of their RAM.  So 4Gb for you. :)
[07:31] <hitmanWilly> merc, you need a little bit just in case an app needs the extra ram, but, no, not really
[07:31] <asc> Hm, universe is enabled...
[07:32] <numan> anybody help me to run a coomand for installing downloaded files
[07:32] <lgc> !paste
[07:32] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:32] <Geoffrey2> now, if I could just get multimedia to work under Ubuntu.......
[07:32] <zcat[1] > zylthinking:  try this "  mkinitramfs -o initrd.img.2.6.21.1 2.6.21.1  "
[07:32] <xipietotec> tonyyarusso, bizzare, it *is* starting, with my new wireless card, when I put it in it starts and creates eth0:avahi, and then on top of that whenever my dhclient failes (which is all the time, since I haven't got this card working yet) it creates ath0:avahi
[07:32] <numan> !sudo
[07:32] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:32] <zylthinking> zcat[1] : thanks, I'll try it
[07:32] <asc> xipietotec: what is the exact name?
[07:33] <xipietotec> !nvu
[07:33] <ubotu> nvu is a WYSIWYG and code dual-function HTML editor for easily creating web pages.  The original developer is working on a full rewrite; meanwhile, another is doing bugfixes.  It is not in the Ubuntu repos for Feisty Fawn, but ping tonyyarusso to inquire about packages.  See also !html.
[07:33] <tonyyarusso> xipietotec: I was referring to nvu - not in repos for feisty
[07:33] <patbam> hi, im trying to ubgrade to feisty from edgy. in the "fetching and installing the upgrades" step, i got a dialog about mdadm arrays, but i didn't do anything. eventually installation seemst o have completed. should i care?
[07:33] <xipietotec> !html
[07:33] <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
[07:33] <asc> tonyyarusso: I'll be looking forward to that.
[07:33] <cyzie> hello, i have split a file using split. how do i merge all them back into 1 file ?
[07:33] <RudyValencia> Hi, I'm setting up my server with ubuntu and I get the following error when I start/restart apache2: "apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 192.168.0.3 for ServerName"
[07:34] <lgc> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18518/
[07:34] <patbam> er, i should care, because the upgrade didn't work O.o
[07:34] <patbam> just try again?
[07:34] <numan> !install
[07:34] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[07:34] <zcat[1] > RudyValencia: put the hostname in apache2's config, there's a line for it somewhere..
[07:34] <ep5760> can anyone help me understand why my nvidia 6800 GS vid card causes xserver errors?
[07:34] <RudyValencia> I checked httpd.conf for the presence of a "ServerName" line. No dice.
[07:34] <unix_> Why is just about every one using ubuntu?
[07:34] <Ashex|srv> ep5760, have you install nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel-source?
[07:35] <zcat[1] > RudyValencia: that or /etc/hosts so it reverse-resolves
[07:35] <archville> morning
[07:35] <unix_> morning
[07:35] <crdlb> ep5760: why nvidia-kernel-source ?
[07:35] <ep5760> ashe aren't they installed by default?
[07:35] <lgc> I'm trying to get rid of acroread. What (of the pastebin I just posted) should I not delete? 'Aptitude purge acroread' doesn't seem to work.
[07:35] <Nergar> unix_, why not?
[07:35] <numan> unix: morning unix
[07:35] <Ashex|srv> unix_, it presents a more gradual learning curve then other distributions
[07:35] <patbam> numan, not sure if that !install was directed at me, but it doesn't mention mdadm there
[07:35] <crdlb> Ashex|srv: I mean
[07:35] <crdlb> why nvidia-kernel-source
[07:35] <Ashex|srv> ep5760, nope, they are proprietary drivers
[07:35] <crdlb> ?
[07:35] <unix_> oh Isee
[07:35] <chamby> ubotu could you please pm me the link to mounting again, i had to restart

[07:36] <zcat[1] > that link?
[07:36] <ep5760> one reason i'm not sure that's the problem is my nvidia motherboard with onboard video runs feisty just fine

[07:36] <crdlb> ep5760:  did you use the restricted manager?

[07:38] <Ashex|srv> ep5760, as crdlb said, try the restricted package manager
[07:38] <gesus> is it possible to add an shortcut to a web address in a normal ubuntu folder??
[07:38] <Ashex|srv> I forgot I'm in #ubuntu and not #kubuntu :P
[07:38] <RudyValencia> ok, fixed

[07:39] <numan> Geoffrey2: you shouldbe missing some plugins for totem player
[07:39] <tonyyarusso> asc: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WaitingForNvuFeisty
[07:39] <nevermind> hi all
[07:40] <Geoffrey2> numan, I'm not using totem, I'm using vlc...at least that's what I'm trying at present.......
[07:40] <asc> Heh...
[07:40] <ichmario> Hi everyone
[07:41] <ericu> ichmario: hi
[07:41] <gesus> is it possible to add an shortcut to a web address in a normal ubuntu folder??  for example, say i wanted to add an icon on the desktop which linked to "www.ubuntu.com" ??
[07:41] <numan> geoffrey2: have you installed the whole package of vlc including additional plugins?
[07:41] <ichmario> I come here because my ubuntu installation failed
[07:41] <asc> I'll edit myself into that when I've got time tomorrow
[07:41] <ichmario> the partitions table, in that step the installer told me that it was not possible to write the changes on the disk
[07:42] <ichmario> and then, nothing
[07:42] <ichmario> could someone please tell me what is it that i'mg doing wrong
[07:42] <patbam> so should i leave this "configuring mdadm" dialog with "all" or put in "none"?
[07:42] <numan> Geoffrey2: which browser  you are using to view videos?
[07:42] <TiGZ> is 600MB a good swap partition for a 30gb hdd?
[07:42] <FreeTUXforEvery1> hi
[07:43] <SuperQ> TiGZ: depends on how much ram you have
[07:43] <TiGZ> 256MB
[07:43] <guch> hello
[07:43] <FreeTUXforEvery1> can somebody help me with the internet connection sharing???
[07:43] <SuperQ> TiGZ: 256MB is fine for a desktop
[07:43] <TiGZ> ok thanks
[07:43] <SuperQ> TiGZ: 1:1 ram-swap
[07:43] <jacquesmerde> Toma-: the bug was filed in 2005! : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/24184
[07:43] <numan> TiGZ: make it as big as you can, i gave 2GB for swapfile on 20GB partition
[07:44] <asc> I'd go 512, personally.  I had 256:256, and it got a little low at times
[07:44] <SuperQ> numan: why?
[07:44] <guch> any known workarounds for the mouse bug in feisty?
[07:44] <SuperQ> numan: waste of space
[07:44] <ichmario> please help
[07:44] <crdlb> guch: "the mouse bug" ?
[07:44] <Toma-> jacquesmerde: damn! :S
[07:44] <guch> ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/108382 )
[07:44] <SuperQ> numan: if you're swaping that much, you're running too much stuff
[07:44] <asc> Although I tend to use more memory than a normal desktop
[07:44] <gesus> hello.  i've searched google but couldn't really find anything helpful. this is pretty much a n00b question --> is it possible to add an shortcut to a web address in a normal ubuntu folder??  for example, say i wanted to add an icon on the desktop which linked to "www.ubuntu.com" ??
[07:44] <numan> SuperQ: bcoz i read somewhere that swapfile works as physical ram for linux
[07:44] <TiGZ> if i was dial booting and using grub as the boot loader shoudl i have the windows partition first or the linux..?
[07:44] <Geoffrey2> ok, vlc...i have libvlc0, vlc, vlc-nox, and mozilla-plugin-vlc all installed
[07:44] <TiGZ> i would presume linux
[07:45] <guch> crdlb: yep, supposedly it's a kernel bug
[07:45] <FreeTUXforEvery1> i have an internet connection in ubuntu with the speedtouch 330 modem and i want to share with a winxp and puppy linux computer.
[07:45] <Geoffrey2> and I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.3
[07:45] <SuperQ> numan: it works just like a paging file works in any OS
[07:45] <patbam> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/79204/comments/6 how can i install that fix?
[07:45] <asc> gesus: You could make a launcher that runs something like 'firefox www.website.com', not sure about the exact syntax though
[07:45] <SuperQ> numan: the "when to swap" is a bit different, nothing near as stupid as windows
[07:45] <ichmario> HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
[07:46] <jacquesmerde> Toma-: could be fixed for gutsy though???: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SimpleSambaIntegrationSpec
[07:46] <SuperQ> numan: Mem:       2066820     908720    1158100          0     118536     373612

[07:46] <dustin> everything went good with enabling the driver
[07:46] <asc> (probably, anyway.  I haven't tried it, but it ought to work....)
[07:46] <SuperQ> I use no swap at all.. but I have 2GB ram in my laptop :)
[07:46] <dustin> now I want to get my dvd stuff to work
[07:46] <christof> Hello
[07:46] <Toma-> jacquesmerde: would be nice. see my blueprint here on the bigger problem :) https://blueprints.launchpad.net/launchpad/+spec/launchpad-voting-system
[07:47] <numan> Geoffrey2: try other plugins also look for it by typing "apt-cache search vlc"
[07:47] <dustin> how do i do that
[07:47] <christof> Someone know how copied all file beginning by 200704 in all the system in 1 folders?
[07:47] <gesus> asc, thankyou. where could i find the exact syntax?
[07:47] <lgc> There's a way to tune the 'swappiness', or the OS's craving for swap space...
[07:47] <SuperQ> numan: my old 1GB ram server hsa 1.25 GB of swap. .it's using < 20MB right now
[07:47] <ep5760> ashe i did the sudo apt get install for both nvidia glx and nvidia kernel source, still failure to start xserver error message
[07:47] <SuperQ> lgc: yes, I think there is some tuning for that these days
[07:48] <dustin> does anyone know how to get dvds to work in uuntu
[07:48] <crdlb> ep5760: can you get the actual error message?
[07:48] <SuperQ> lgc: http://kerneltrap.org/node/3000
[07:48] <crdlb> ep5760: something about a kernel x module version mismatch or something?
[07:48] <lgc> SuperQ, that 's exactly the same page I was lookng...
[07:48] <numan> SuperQ: i got plenty of space to give so i did it, But if you are insisting that much then i will change it to?
[07:48] <jacquesmerde> Toma-: the even bigger problem here is that people don't file bugs. i'm sure they would if they already had a launchpad account, but they just don't sign up. i imagine even LESS people would sign up for the voting
[07:49] <Geoffrey2> the only other plugins available are video output plugins (arts, esd, ggi, glide, sdl, and svga)
[07:49] <ep5760> crdlb the error is VESA: no matching device section for instance, gives a busid
[07:49] <TiGZ> Layout:    23Gb Ext3 Ubuntu (Flagged as boot)    1GB Swap File      7GB NTFS Win2k
[07:49] <Toma-> jacquesmerde: having a voting system would give people an incentive to file bugs and get things they want passed
[07:49] <ep5760> also says cannot read V_BIOS
[07:49] <gesus> hello helpers --> what is the syntax i would need to make a link to a web address in a folder. like say i wanted to add a link to www.google.com on my ubuntu desktop?
[07:50] <numan> Geoffrey2: Do you know the file extension you are viewing on imdb website?
[07:50] <crdlb> ep5760: sudo nvidia-xconfig -pcritical xserver-xorg; sudo nvidia-xconfig
[07:50] <crdlb> whoops
[07:50] <Parmenion> hey guys =)
[07:50] <SuperQ> lgc: google is my friend
[07:50] <Toma-> jacquesmerde: for instance, id vote for your samba bug. not long ago i had to LAN with a bunch of windows users and when i couldnt get a samba share working easy, they all bagged me out
[07:50] <aeonix> how are yall
[07:50] <crdlb> ep5760: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg; sudo nvidia-xconfig
[07:50] <FunnyLookinHat> gesus, create a launcher, and for the command do "firefox http://www.website.com"
[07:50] <TiGZ> Is the update from Ubuntu 5.10 to 6.10 smaller then is you were downloading the iso disc?
[07:50] <lgc> christof, can you clarify what you want? You certainly are not asking about 'cp 200704* somedir/' are you?
[07:51] <crdlb> ep5760: run that command (the fixed one :))
[07:51] <gesus> FunnyLookinHat, thankyou i will try that cheers
[07:51] <lgc> SuperQ, mine too!
[07:51] <SuperQ> numan: eh, if it works for you, why bother changing it :)
[07:51] <FunnyLookinHat> gesus, no problem dude
[07:51] <ep5760> alrighty, i'll see if the command line interface still works for me
[07:51] <jacquesmerde> Toma-: aahhh, hurt pride. the great motivation for technological improvement
[07:51] <Toma-> :)
[07:51] <SuperQ> numan: look at things like 'free' to see swap usage
[07:52] <Geoffrey2> numan, Windows Media, 320 x 136
[07:52] <kalpik> join #linux-india
[07:52] <grndslm> anybody gotta better recommendation for a usb OS besides damn small linux??
[07:52] <SuperQ> numan: and 'vmstat 1' to see if you are swapping a lot
[07:52] <numan> SuperQ: bcoz i am not running that much stuff,only using it as a desktop pc
[07:52] <Toma-> grndslm: slax
[07:52] <TiGZ> I am still deciding whether to upgrade to 6.10 or 7.10  on a low end laptop. :|
[07:52] <SuperQ> numan: look at the si/so (swap-in/swap-out) columns in vmstat
[07:52] <crdlb> TiGZ: newer releases are faster
[07:53] <crdlb> gnome uses less memory in 7.04 than it did in 6.10
[07:53] <TiGZ> crdlb: but bigger to download
[07:53] <FreeTUXforEvery1> salut
[07:53] <FreeTUXforEvery1> am o problema
[07:53] <SuperQ> TiGZ: you could also try out xfce
[07:53] <SuperQ> (xubuntu)
[07:53] <FreeTUXforEvery1> cum pot sa fac share in ubuntu?
[07:53] <crdlb> TiGZ: why?
[07:53] <TiGZ> yeah ive been looking at that
[07:53] <numan> Geoffrey2: do you installed the wmv plugin?
[07:53] <SuperQ> it uses a lot less ram than gnome, but the UI is different/less-functional
[07:53] <crdlb> is it more to download?
[07:53] <DanaG> Oh yeah, where should I go to report that assertion failure with PulseAudio and .asoundrc?
[07:54] <TiGZ> crdlb: My internetz hasn't been upgraded to ADSL 2+ yet
[07:54] <gesus> FunnyLookinHat, em this might sound stupid, but how do i 'create a launcher' is that just a text document that i run as a script? how do i make it do that?
[07:54] <FreeTUXforEvery1> am modem speedtouch 330 si vreau sa fac share cu puppy linux dar nu reusesc...
[07:54] <Parmenion> gesus: for gnome ?
[07:54] <numan> SuperQ: its all zeros
[07:54] <gesus> Parmenion, yep
[07:54] <DanaG> I need my LFE Crossover LADSPA with pulseaudio!
[07:54] <crdlb> TiGZ: the 7.04 and 6.10 cd's are the same size
[07:54] <TiGZ> ok.
[07:54] <catid> how do you set processor affinity on the commandline again?
[07:55] <ep5760> crdlb: thanks, whatever that last pair of commands worked perfectly
[07:55] <TiGZ> Recommended specs are 256MB of ram and a 2gb hdd... nice
[07:55] <Parmenion> well gesus, right click and select what you want; thats for the applications from the menus
[07:55] <SuperQ> TiGZ: unfortunately, you can't upgrade from to 7.04 directly without re-installing
[07:55] <TiGZ> SuperQ, ISO it is then....
[07:56] <TiGZ> Or Xubuntu. I can
[07:56] <Parmenion> other than that, rightclick on the gnome-panel and "Add to panel.."
[07:56] <TiGZ> can't decide*
[07:56] <TiGZ> Xfce has nice transparency effects doesn't it
[07:56] <MSTK> does anyone know of IM protocols (IRC, AIM, etc.) that run on the command line?
[07:56] <numan> SuperQ: its still running maybe refreshing continuosly?
[07:56] <MSTK> gaim-text doesnt' seem to be working for me
[07:57] <ep5760> crdlb: one other issue, my screen resolution won't go above 1024x768 yet i know my card and monitor is capable of 1280x1024, any suggestion on that?
[07:57] <Parmenion> TiGZ: beryl ...
[07:57] <crdlb> ep5760: use nvidia-settings
[07:57] <TiGZ> yeah
[07:57] <Geoffrey2> numan, as far as I know, vlc doesn't have any external media plugins
[07:57] <lgc> MSTK, irssi?
[07:58] <keyvin> Hayyyy guys
[07:58] <ep5760> crdlb: once again thank you very much
[07:58] <MSTK> Igc - Is that only for IRC?
[07:58] <DanaG> Oh, I found XFCE broke my keyboard settings,
[07:58] <crdlb> ep5760: np
[07:58] <TiGZ> Is there old ATI Drivers for Ubuntu?   I was unfortunately unable to get Wine working with DirectX as a consequence of this.
[07:58] <lgc> MSTK, not sure...
[07:58] <keyvin> I'm running a via c7. Anyone think compiling my own kernel with the different architecture will make a big enough difference to bother with?
[07:58] <MSTK> Igc - thanks, I'll check it out.
[07:58] <DanaG> but then when I reinstalled my system (due to Sabayon LiveCD trying to go into SUSPEND when I closed the lid during gparted), I had the same problem with Gnome.
[07:58] <crdlb> TiGZ: you have a 8500-9400 ?
[07:58] <numan> Geoffrey2: then try other movie player instead of vlc bcoz your problem is due to compatibilty.
[07:58] <keyvin> err not architecture
[07:58] <keyvin> processor setting
[07:58] <DanaG> The "evdev-managed layout" seems to be broken.
[07:58] <TiGZ> ATI Rage Mobility M1 AGP2x
[07:59] <TiGZ> (old)
[07:59] <crdlb> TiGZ: uh
[07:59] <crdlb> there were never fglrx drivers for that card
[07:59] <crdlb> and that card sucks (no offense)
[07:59] <TiGZ> its an old laptop :)
[07:59] <TiGZ> none taken :P
[07:59] <gesus> Parmenion, i have no idea what you mean? i'm just trying to create a 'shortcut' to a web address (like an icon on my desktop that opens up www.google.com).
[08:00] <phy2> gesus, cnan you drag it from firefox address bar?
[08:00] <scott_> hi Everyone, im looking for some help with changing a file from read only back to how it was..
[08:00] <crdlb> TiGZ: are you getting any 3d acceleration; as I remember it drm for that card isn't in ubuntu because it's insecure
[08:00] <crdlb> ?
[08:00] <TiGZ> crdlb: Nup
[08:00] <scott_> sudo chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf
[08:00] <Grape_Juice> scott_: "chmod +rwx <file>"
[08:00] <numan> Geoffrey2;
[08:00] <Grape_Juice> I think...
[08:00] <scott_> was what i did, to make my dns file read only..
[08:00] <numan> Geoffrey2: ?
[08:00] <crdlb> TiGZ: it uses the mach64 kernel module, which ubuntu doesn't include iirc
[08:01] <keyvin> scott: immutable? thats some juju
[08:01] <scott_> but i need the command to put it back.. :$
[08:01] <gesus> phy2, nup, that creates a text doc with the address in it
[08:01] <Grape_Juice> scott_: "man chmod"
[08:01] <Grape_Juice> :)
[08:01] <scott_> sorry for some odd reason it didnt copy correct into this chat?
[08:01] <numan> SuperQ: ?
[08:01] <therealnanotube> scott: post the output of "ls -al filename" so we can see what you've got. if it's owned by root, then you've gotta chmod with sudo. "man chmod" should set you up.
[08:01] <TiGZ> " isn't in ubuntu because it's insecure"?
[08:01] <keyvin> grape juice: won
[08:01] <Grape_Juice> 0.o
[08:01] <keyvin> He used the immutable bit
[08:01] <gesus> Parmenion, i got it now. sorry. i can do that 'create launcher' thing on the desktop
[08:02] <keyvin> not permissions
[08:02] <gesus> just couldn't do it in a folder
[08:02] <gesus> my bad
[08:02] <Adsims2001> Does anyone else here have a wlan card with an rtl818x series chipset?
[08:02] <gesus> i'm a n00b :|
[08:02] <Grape_Juice> Oh...I sucky.
[08:02] <Grape_Juice> Sorry. :<
[08:02] <scott_> resolv.conf
[08:02] <scott_> is the file i changed..
[08:02] <crdlb> TiGZ: the mach64 kernel module had severe security vulnerabilities (that means root-level exploit)
[08:02] <scott_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224861&highlight=losing+dns+settings
[08:02] <ichmario> how can I resize my ntfs windows partition??
[08:02] <DanaG> I have an old Netgear MA521, that seems to be r818x.
[08:02] <scott_> has the command i did...
[08:02] <Adsims2001> Did you ever have problems with it in Ubuntu?
[08:03] <crdlb> but it's not capable of much even with that kernel module
[08:03] <gesus> Parmenion, phy2 -- thanks for your hep
[08:03] <Parmenion> gesus oh :P i wasnt sure what you exactly meant . alright, a moment to collect my thoughts the
[08:03] <DanaG> I thought it was broken with native drivers, but then I tried it in Vista with Vista's own drivers.
[08:03] <gesus> *Help
[08:03] <TiGZ> DirectDraw is a pretty basic interface.
[08:03] <DanaG> It didn't work there either.  I installed Netgear's drivers -- still didn't work.  I used ndiswrapper again -- still didn't work.
[08:03] <Adsims2001> DanaG, i've been having severe problems with mine made by D-Link... The default drivers before 7.04 (They're blacklisted) are very buggy and unmaintained
[08:03] <DanaG> It turned out the cards was just ludicrously weak.
[08:03] <keyvin> scott: try chattr -i resolv.conf
[08:03] <ichmario>  how can I resize my ntfs windows partition??
[08:03] <keyvin> scott: as root
[08:04] <DanaG> Just try ndiswrapper, if you must.
[08:04] <Geoffrey2> ya know, for months now I've been working with this, convincing myself that I was getting a much better system by getting rid of Microsoft....but there comes a point, when I spend countless hours fighting the operating system, configuring this, tweaking that, trying to get it to do things Windows does out of the box without a problem....and I have to start asking myself, is this really worth it?
[08:04] <keyvin> err sudo
[08:04] <Adsims2001> I tried that, just ten minutes ago
[08:04] <DanaG> This was a cardbus card.
[08:04] <DanaG> Hmm.
[08:04] <Adsims2001> Mine is PCI.
[08:04] <scott_> Keyvin - sorry im bery newbe, yea as sudo i think..
[08:04] <Adsims2001> Ha, this workstation will crash any minute now due to those drivers ;_;
[08:04] <scott_> network manager is having a pissy coz the file is read only..
[08:04] <DanaG> ndis, or native?
[08:04] <Adsims2001> The natives.
[08:05] <Parmenion> gesus: now, you just need to put in "firefox yourweblink"
[08:05] <keyvin> Geoffrey: Use windows. Its not worth the hassle, and you wouldn't notice the difference anyways
[08:05] <gesus> Parmenion, thankyou !!
[08:05] <Parmenion> i hate lag.
[08:05] <Adsims2001> the problem is that the rtl8180 chipset *sucks* and no one has the hardware to debug the drivers, or for that matter, no one really cares. Ha
[08:05] <Parmenion> and i hate wireless
[08:05] <_3fg> How can I make it so my damn laptop touchpad doesn't click every time I accidentally touch it?
[08:05] <Adsims2001> I also hate wireless, but I don't have a choice, it's the only option ;_;
[08:06] <DanaG> Signal range with ipw3945: oh, at least 25 or 50 yards.  With the M521 cardbus, it's about 10.
[08:06] <Parmenion> gesus: =)
[08:06] <Parmenion> Adsims2001: ive got no choice here as well ... ive ran out of ethernet wire
[08:06] <Adsims2001> I do have a few other cards I could use, anyway. I think i'll just try those instead of dealing with this one.
[08:06] <dustin> can someone plz tell me what to do to get dvds wrking in ubuntu 6.06 lts
[08:06] <DanaG> odd NetworkManager bug I have on my wired cardL
[08:06] <_3fg> How can I make it so my damn laptop touchpad doesn't click every time I accidentally touch it?
[08:07] <keyvin> dustin: google for easybuntu
[08:07] <DanaG> It shows my IP as 0.0.0.0
[08:07] <Adsims2001> You could try iwconfig
[08:07] <dustin> what is that
[08:07] <bastidraZor> buy a MacBook Pro instead of that cheap Dell
[08:07] <Parmenion> Adsims2001: you cant get your wireless to work ?
[08:07] <Adsims2001> it's network manager from the command line
[08:07] <keyvin> dustin: It is a very simple installer with directions for setting up software that has IP restrictions
[08:07] <matrix> hi
[08:07] <Adsims2001> Parmenion: It works, but has severe bugs like crashing the whole system
[08:07] <DanaG> No broadcom here!
[08:07] <Adsims2001> if i try to start a torrent or download more than one file at a time
[08:07] <Adsims2001> and sometimes just randomly
[08:08] <keyvin> IP==Intellectual Property
[08:08] <thesmiler> how the great googly moogly do i update firefox???
[08:08] <scott_> what file permissions should the file resolv.conf  have by default?
[08:08] <sanityx> Whats the command to grow ext2/ext3 partitions?
[08:08] <_3fg> How can I make it so my damn touchpad doesn't click every time I accidentally touch it?
[08:08] <Adsims2001> the problem is an old, unmaintained driver for the r818x series by realtek
[08:08] <matrix> ~$ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1/
[08:08] <matrix> mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member
[08:08] <keyvin> scott_: try 644
[08:08] <scott_> and the sudo command to run to change it back to its default rights..
[08:08] <Adsims2001> so i don't reccomend using cards with that chipset with ubuntu.
[08:08] <matrix> somebody know about lvm?
[08:08] <scott_> full command?
[08:08] <Parmenion> Adsims2001: O.o thats weird ... manufacturer ? have you tried ndiswrapper ?
[08:08] <grndslm> _3fg:  stop bumping things that don't need to be bumped
[08:08] <keyvin> scott: "sudo chattr -i /etc/resolv.conf"
[08:08] <keyvin> then permessions
[08:08] <Adsims2001> Yeah, I tried NDISwrapper a little bit but I should play around with it a bit more before I give up.
[08:08] <scott_> :) thank u so much :F
[08:08] <keyvin> scott: Follow this by
[08:08] <scott_> ::D
[08:09] <Parmenion> Adsims2001: have you tried ndiswrapper ?
[08:09] <keyvin> "sudo chmod 644 /etc/resolv.conf"
[08:09] <nick_name> anyone know how to start the Main Menu via the console?
[08:09] <_3fg> grndslm: I'm just frustrated, I've been asking for the last few days
[08:09] <thesmiler> i'm using dapper, and downloaded the latest firefox in a tar.gz which I unpacked...
[08:09] <Adsims2001> you can figure out what the name of your panel executable is by doing a "ps -e | grep panel"
[08:09] <Adsims2001> if panel is in the name at least
[08:09] <thesmiler> but i have NFI what to do with it. it refers to installation instructions on the firefox website but there are NONE
[08:10] <grndslm> _3fg:  if you have a synaptics touchpad like me, you can type "man synaptics" at the command line to get a list of mouse pad features available for that driver
[08:10] <_3fg> ok
[08:10] <DanaG> Turn on SHMConfig (google it with the word Synaptics) and install gsynaptics.
[08:10] <grndslm> yea
[08:10] <DanaG> That's plural, gsynaptics.
[08:11] <thesmiler> anyone? :(
[08:11] <Parmenion> thesmiler: what is the problem ?
[08:11] <grndslm> NFI??
[08:11] <grndslm> what's that?
[08:11] <TiGZ> crdlb: So ill just upgrade to 6.10 (because i have 5.10 installed) and just play games on the Win2k partition .
[08:11] <nick_name> great, thanks! it looks like it's called gnome-panel.
[08:11] <Adsims2001> Well I'm about to install an ssh server so I'd better leave. Don't want my system to crash ;-;
[08:11] <thesmiler> i'd tell you but i'm not allowed to say certain words in here, grndslm
[08:11] <Parmenion> thesmiler: have you installed build-essential ?
[08:11] <grndslm> ahhh
[08:11] <thesmiler> i'll check
[08:11] <DanaG> Time for bed.
[08:12] <DanaG> Bye.
[08:12] <TiGZ> Night.
[08:12] <SuperQ> TiGZ: I would just go directly to 7.04
[08:12] <SuperQ> TiGZ: but that's me :)
[08:12] <Parmenion> you need it to compile programs from source thesmiler
[08:12] <crdlb> TiGZ: I'd do a clean install to 7.04
[08:12] <scott_> The network settings window never likes to open it will open but takes its time and the window is just blank gray till it dose.. the log shows the following : May  1 18:10:53 scott-laptop gconfd (root-7086): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory" to a read-only configuration source at position 0
[08:12] <TiGZ> but then i need to download the iso :S
[08:12] <numan> Geoffrey2: u still there?
[08:12] <crdlb> TiGZ: so?
[08:12] <Parmenion> after that, its a simple make uninstall, make , make install
[08:12] <thesmiler> so i need to compile it? why the hell isn't it available over the package manager?
[08:12] <numan> SuperQ: i was looking for you
[08:12] <TiGZ> crdlb: Internetz are not the best thing where i am :)
[08:13] <crdlb> TiGZ: that's half as much downloading as going from 5.10 to 6.10
[08:13] <thesmiler> but where do i make uninstall?
[08:13] <crdlb> TiGZ: because you have to go through 6.06
[08:13] <TiGZ> But
[08:13] <Geoffrey2> numan, ok, removed totem plugin, installed totem xine and totem mozilla plugin
[08:13] <TiGZ> i can just go to 6.06 though
[08:13] <scales11> hello, well i just installed wcid and i want to remove it, i downloaded the deb file and i do not see it in the add/remove program manager, suggestions?

[08:13] <numan> SuperQ: i got all the zeros
[08:13] <_3fg> does Kubuntu use xorg.conf too?
[08:13] <scales11> hello, well i just installed wcid and i want to remove it, i downloaded the deb file and i do not see it in the add/remove program manager, suggestions?
[08:14] <crdlb> TiGZ: at the least you need to upgrade to 6.06, but a fresh install to 7.04 would use the same amount of bandwidth
[08:14] <numan> Geoffrey2: so your problem solved?
[08:14] <Parmenion> scales11: dont repeat !
[08:14] <Parmenion> scales11: try synaptics ... its there. trust me
[08:14] <scales11> sorry i didnt think it got sent since someone else sent a bunch of other things
[08:14] <Geoffrey2> now I'm getting a white box with a big red X in the middle of it
[08:14] <scales11> synaptics?
[08:14] <dustin> ok i installed that should i beable to play dvds now
[08:14] <keyvin> dustin: run it
[08:14] <TiGZ> crdlb: Transparency needs video drivers in xfce doesnt it?
[08:14] <Parmenion> scales11: synaptics package manager
[08:14] <keyvin> dustin: and look for an option to install propreitary codecs
[08:15] <dustin> i don't see it in my menu
[08:15] <hikyuu_> has anyone had any experience with Beryl? its kinda effing up my Workspaces, and the people at beryl seem to be asleep :/
[08:15] <keyvin> dustin: look under system
[08:15] <dustin> k
[08:15] <numan> Geoffrey2: can you give me the url to view that clip to see if it happen to me?
[08:15] <crdlb> TiGZ: you need some hardware acceleration
[08:15] <crdlb> nv won't cut it for example
[08:15] <underwatercow> does anyone know how to set up a webcam? I understand gaim dropped any support they might have had a couple years back. Is there an alternative to communicate easily with msn/yahoo/aim users on webcam?
[08:15] <TiGZ> "Some"
[08:15] <_3fg> hikyuu_: I've USED beryl, but I can't promis to be any help
[08:15] <crdlb> TiGZ: you need 3d drivers
[08:15] <Parmenion> scales11: system->administration->synaptic->search for synaptic

[08:16] <keyvin> or, in a terminal sudo easyubuntu
[08:16] <hikyuu_> _3fg i just cant seem to get beryl to run 4 workspaces, instead it acts as tho i have 8, making the cube an octagon, i know its silly to freak about, but it bugs me
[08:16] <dustin> i don't see it uder system it said it installed successfully
[08:16] <pipegeek> Howdy.  Running feisty here.  I'm wondering if there's any way to force gnome-vfs to use port 139 when connecting to an SMB share---port 451 is firewalled, and so it has to time out in its attempt to connect on that port before every operation.
[08:16] <pipegeek> Leastways, I think that's what's happening :^)
[08:16] <Geoffrey2> about: plugins is showing libtotem-gmp-plugin.so installed
[08:16] <keyvin> dustin_: then in a terminal "sudo easyubuntu"
[08:16] <_3fg> hikyuu_ Open the beryl control center and change the number of workspaces

[08:17] <TiGZ> Crdlb: the file is an   "ati.2" file :S
[08:17] <keyvin> dustin_: Also, if your in the USA, your committing a felony by watching a DVD under linux
[08:18] <_3fg> hikyuu_:, hm, I don't know then. Maybe restart?
[08:18] <hikyuu_> _3fg: did that
[08:18] <pipegeek> Or is this a #gnome question
[08:18] <numan> Geoffrey2: i also got error " Cant parse that no files" so i think its not your fault maybr they dont support linux os
[08:18] <hikyuu_> _3fg: i even set it and ubuntu down to 1 desktop, still thinks 8
[08:18] <zylthinking> how can I change font color here?
[08:19] <keyvin> hey, does the kernel source package just download a tarball to /usr/src?
[08:19] <grndslm> so what else is illegal to do under linux in the us??  ...DVDs & w32codecs??  is this it?
[08:19] <crdlb> TiGZ: the gatos drivers are not going to work on latest Xorg afaik
[08:19] <hikyuu_> _3fg: did i just really break Beryl? :'(
[08:19] <_3fg> hikyuu_: do you have multiple instances of Beryl running? It did that to me a lot
[08:19] <TiGZ> 5.10 xorg?
[08:19] <hikyuu_> lol
[08:19] <hikyuu_> how can i tell? it only shows 1 diamond in the corner
[08:19] <variant> hikyuu_: are you using beryl-manager?
[08:20] <variant> hikyuu_: nm
[08:20] <hikyuu_> O.o

[08:20] <underwatercow> webcams? anyone?
[08:20] <underwatercow> no?
[08:20] <Geoffrey2> grndslm, actually, it's not illegal to watch DVDs under linux, the problem is nobody has bothered to put out a licensed DVD decoder, as of yet
[08:20] <variant> underwatercow: if you have a question
[08:21] <variant> underwatercow: just ask it
[08:21] <underwatercow> I did

[08:21] <variant> underwatercow: so is see actually
[08:21] <pressureman> is anyone familiar with the problem of no hardware timers detected with ubuntu amd64?
[08:21] <hikyuu_> variant: i think hes right, i might have two running, i turned off Beryl but its still acting as if i have it on
[08:21] <grndslm> Geoffrey2: so i can watch DVDs legally, it's just not "supported" by anybody?
[08:21] <underwatercow> !ask | underwatercow

[08:22] <killermach_> I have installed the nvidia restricted drivers

[08:25] <dustin> that whole thing failed miserably

[08:26] <TiGZ> Lathiat: No matter what it floods my RAM. Even Windows 98
[08:26] <PrimoTurbo> I'm having an issue booting into Ubuntu after install, Ubuntu just hangs, recovery console shows that it stops at loading at drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c v2.6:USB HID core driver
[08:26] <dibblego> variant, how do I do that exactly? or, is there a document on that?
[08:26] <shadowsong> how can we view channel members here?
[08:26] <underwatercow> variant: thanks... that's an interesting wiki
[08:26] <PrimoTurbo> I tried to reinstall with a different cd and the same problem using 7.04
[08:26] <variant> agentnewb: it does, worked out of the box for me. you probably just need to raise the volume in the sound mixer
[08:26] <hikyuu_> lol... they all forgot about me X,x
[08:26] <zylthinking> :quit
[08:26] <PrimoTurbo> pls I need a way to fix this!!! What's odd is that I installed 7.04 a few days before and it worked! Now the same cd and new cds don't work there is a problem
[08:26] <variant> dibblego: if you right click the panel and select add to panel you can select the keymap switcher applet
[08:26] <shadowsong> i am using xchat, how can we see members in channel?
[08:26] <agentnewb> variant: nope it lists pcm and master no headphone channel
[08:27] <zylthinking> what is the quit command?
[08:27] <variant> dibblego: or you can select the option from the settings menu
[08:27] <crdlb> shadowsong: xchat or xchat-gnome ?
[08:27] <variant> agentnewb: what sound card?
[08:27] <shadowsong> xchat
[08:27] <dibblego> variant, System -> Preferences -> Keyboard?
[08:27] <variant> agentnewb: what mixer are you useing also?
[08:27] <variant> dibblego: yes
[08:27] <dibblego> ah thanks
[08:27] <shadowsong> crdlb xchat
[08:27] <r3dEYEj4CKAL> Hello
[08:27] <variant> dibblego: add the switcher applet too, it's handy for switching on the fly
[08:27] <crdlb> shadowsong: then just drag the sidebar on the right side to the left, to open it

[08:28] <TiGZ> SuperQ, so if i went to 7.04 woult it last or will 8.xx be released some time soon?
[08:28] <dibblego> variant, I must be blind
[08:28] <variant> agentnewb: what mixer are you using?
[08:28] <dibblego> variant, Character Palette?
[08:28] <shadowsong> crdlb: wow thanks, sorry i am stupid
[08:28] <r3dEYEj4CKAL> I'm hoping that someone in here can help me with an issue, I might be screwed completely though seeing as how my motherboard and all that jazz is AMD64.
[08:28] <killermach_> PrimoTurbo: do you have any memcards in the USB?
[08:28] <Flannel> TiGZ: Releases are every six months.  The next will be 7.10 (in october), then 8.04 will be released in april
[08:28] <variant> dibblego: it's ok, many times people insist that something is impossible etc in ubuntu when the option is just sitting in the menu
[08:28] <hikyuu_> sigh... atleast i didnt pay 100$ for this headache..
[08:28] <hikyuu_> lol
[08:28] <variant> dibblego: they just didn't look :)
[08:28] <TiGZ> ok so about a year.
[08:28] <variant> dibblego: keyboard layout is what your looking for
[08:28] <crdlb> TiGZ: if you want to limit the amount of upgrading, use the LTS releases
[08:28] <PrimoTurbo> No I have no memcards.
[08:29] <crdlb> 6.06 is the current one
[08:29] <variant> dibblego: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[08:29] <TiGZ> Long term support
[08:29] <dibblego> variant, 6.06.1 there is Keyboard Indicator
[08:29] <TiGZ> 7.04 isnt LTS.
[08:29] <ubunku> who is linux? why my friend's in love with it?
[08:29] <r3dEYEj4CKAL> My video card is a Radeon Xpress200 and the resolution is stuck at 640x480, anyone have any idea how I can get my video card to be copasetic with Ubuntu?
[08:29] <hikyuu_>  can i reinstall Beryl?
[08:29] <DShepherd> ubunku, ask your friend...
[08:29] <variant> dibblego: add the keyboard indicater
[08:29] <TiGZ> because linux is the master of the world.
[08:29] <variant> hikyuu_: that won't make any difference
[08:29] <ubunku> :)
[08:29] <dibblego> variant, righto cheers
[08:29] <crdlb> TiGZ: 7.04 will be supported for 18 months
[08:29] <variant> hikyuu_: how are you starting it?
[08:30] <variant> hikyuu_: killalll beryl as before and just run beryl-manager
[08:30] <TiGZ> Wow...more then a year :)
[08:30] <PrimoTurbo> I tried disabling usb from bios but it did nothing
[08:30] <TiGZ>  Ubuntu 7.04 - Supported to 2008   Ubuntu 6.06 LTS - Supported to 2009
[08:30] <variant> hikyuu_: beryl won't run more than once so that can't be the problem afaik
[08:30] <hikyuu_> variant: i ran a install tutorial thats supposed to make it run on start up
[08:30] <variant> hikyuu_: ahh
[08:30] <crdlb> TiGZ: and 6.06 is supported for double that, but a year of it is already gone
[08:30] <variant> hikyuu_: all you have to do is run beryl-manager and save your session
[08:30] <hikyuu_> ...?
[08:31] <crdlb> TiGZ: so dapper will be supported 6 mo. longer than feisty
[08:31] <TiGZ> k

[08:31] <r3dEYEj4CKAL> Am I just completely screwed?
[08:31] <ericu> Hi all, I'm having trouble with Eclipse recognizing my java
[08:31] <PrimoTurbo> I think it's an issue with the kernel in 7.04 is there anyway to some how use a different kernel?
[08:31] <hikyuu_> variant: wont that... /not/ fix the problem?
[08:31] <dibblego> variant, so I add a new layout to US English, correct?
[08:31] <variant> hikyuu_: what?
[08:31] <agentnewb> r3dEYEj4CKAL: yes you are now bend over and shut up
[08:32] <variant> dibblego: yes,

[08:32] <TiGZ> Agh now its down to Xubuntu or Ubuntu 7.04
[08:32] <dnite> I'm curious. Will Gaim 2.0.0beta6 automatically update to pidgin (as well as the apropriate libraries) when pidgin hits the repos or will i need to uninstall gaim and install pidgin?
[08:33] <PrimoTurbo> I posted the information on the forum but no responces today :( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2570240 - Can someone give any suggestions?
[08:33] <agentnewb> how do I login to ubuntu irc server?
[08:33] <variant> dnite: it will automatically change i would think
[08:33] <variant> agentnewb: there is no ubuntu irc server
[08:33] <underwatercow> variant: why don't I see Gaim on this webcam list?
[08:33] <crdlb> agentnewb: you seem to have done that already :)
[08:34] <exsa_01> hi
[08:34] <variant> agentnewb: you are talking on the official support channel
[08:34] <crdlb> the "ubuntu irc server" is just freenode
[08:34] <dnite> variant, ok. i was thinking it might but i wasn't sure how apt handles packages that got renamed.
[08:34] <variant> underwatercow: perhaps i was wrong
[08:34] <r3dEYEj4CKAL> Thanks for finding a good answer to my question amigos. I hope that I don't screw this up too much.
[08:34] <hikyuu_> yay

[08:37] <Geoffrey2> grndslm, the problem is that the DVD encoding standard is closed source, proprietary, and patented/copyrighted...anyone wanting to make a DVD player/decoder needs to pay a licensing fee....about $10,000...a minor matter for the major software manufacturers...but for an operating system you get for free, who's going to pay the fee?
[08:38] <underwatercow> variant: thanks
[08:38] <variant> Geoffrey2: actually, the encryption is the only thing that is subject to licencing restriction
[08:39] <grndslm> variant:  so libdvdcss & libdvdread aren't included by default because...
[08:39] <grndslm> ??
[08:39] <variant> grndslm: because they allow the encryption to be bypassed
[08:39] <Geoffrey2> variant, and since basically every commercial DVD out there is encrypted...........
[08:40] <grndslm> decryption... a crime or not a crime in the u.s.?
[08:40] <Snap> everybody download Saybayon Linux .......beryl sound and wireless WORKS OUT OF THE BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[08:45] <nicolasbelisle> All: [Sorry]  : Quick question: it there a tool similar to top, but for network utilization ?
[08:45] <leviac> I have a better $10,000 question, say you have a laptop, and a usb cd drive, but the laptop doesn't boot from cd drive, whats the easiest way to install? :P
[08:45] <Brade1> dunno soz
[08:45] <mvirro2000> I can run the live cd of ubuntu 6.0.6 but it doesnt appear to install to my hard drive or a boot loader, keeps booting into xp after formatting  a drive, any suggestions?
[08:45] <variant> leviac: put the hard disk into annother laptop and install from there
[08:45] <Brade1> u mean 6.06
[08:45] <Brade1> i use 7.04
[08:45] <mvirro2000> whoops

[08:47] <underwatercow> variant: is pidgin gaim?
[08:47] <leviac> variant: would installing it from another laptop have any issues with drivers not working?
[08:47] <Geoffrey2> leviac, does the laptop have a floppy drive?
[08:47] <nicolasbelisle> Rat409 : thanks.
[08:47] <leviac> geoffrey2: aye, i have a floppy and it does boot with that
[08:47] <ericu> anyone know how to make the new java1.6 visible to eclipse?
[08:48] <bahblah> hi i found out a shortcut on gnome or X11 or w/e. I held down the left mouse button + Alt + Windows button and when i moved the mouse it drew on the screen with red marker
[08:48] <loco> hello how can i install a file name LimeWireLinux.rpm...?
[08:48] <bahblah> now I can't find out how to get rid of it
[08:48] <SeveredCross> Don't use RPM's. :)
[08:48] <SeveredCross> And get FrostWire
[08:48] <SeveredCross> Much easier.
[08:48] <Rat409> underwatercow: yes,its same project with diff name to to aol/copyright/legal issue
[08:48] <Geoffrey2> leviac, well, it would seem you could use a linux boot disk, boot up, mount the CD ROM, and then install from it
[08:48] <orasis> How do I manually edit the GDM? - What is the file again, /etc?
[08:48] <SeveredCross> To get Frostwire (which functions the same as LimeWire), just sudo apt-get install frostwire or use Synaptic/
[08:48] <loco> wassup with rpm why shouldnt i use them
[08:48] <SeveredCross> /=?
[08:48] <SeveredCross> Because RPM's aren't designed for Ubuntu.
[08:49] <SeveredCross> RPM's are designed for Red Hat boxen.
[08:49] <loco> ok
[08:49] <SeveredCross> Ubuntu uses Debian packages, .deb
[08:49] <orasis> Frostwire crashes like nuts :D
[08:49] <loco> wha is frostwire
[08:49] <underwatercow> Rat409: thanks, lol... apparently libgaim was rename to libpurple
[08:49] <SeveredCross> Not for me. ::shrugs::
[08:49] <SeveredCross> loco: An open-source clone of LimeWire.
[08:49] <loco> ok
[08:49] <orasis> If you want to convert RPMS to useable debs - get 'alien'
[08:49] <thebillywayne> !alien | loco
[08:49] <ubotu> loco: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[08:49] <SeveredCross> Looks like limewire, smells like limewire, works like limewire, but it ain't limewire.
[08:49] <SeveredCross> Alien is usable, yes, but IMHO it's a bad idea for any package.
[08:49] <orasis> Bah it's not dangerous, nonsense - as long as they are not system files.
[08:49] <SeveredCross> More hassle than it's worth if you need to remove stuff after.
[08:50] <arejay> Frostwire also dosnt filter search rults :)
[08:50] <Parmenion> btw, you cant use frostwire while using beryl
[08:50] <orasis> SeveredCross: The frostwire RPM works better than it's DEB version.
[08:50] <arejay> Parmenion: i have no problem
[08:50] <Brade1> wat will pidgin be like?
[08:50] <orasis> The DEB version for some reason always seg faults.
[08:50] <SeveredCross> I just installed FrostWire from the repos.
[08:50] <SeveredCross> Brade1: Same as Gaim?
[08:50] <orasis> Yeah I should do a repos install.. :/
[08:50] <SeveredCross> They don't have to change the interface, just the name.
[08:50] <Brade1> kk thx
[08:50] <Parmenion> arejay: in my case, i have to swap to metacity to see frostwire ... opeining it is not an issue
[08:50] <loco> ok
[08:51] <Geoffrey2> SeveredCross, since alien coverts the RPM into an installable .deb, why would removing it be any more hassle than any other .deb file?
[08:51] <orasis> Ermm so, what is the GDM file again guys? :)
[08:51] <SeveredCross> Because some of the scripts can break if I remember correctly.
[08:51] <dnite> underwatercow, ya, something about the protocol module in libgaim for some reason was called PRPL .. so they changed the name of libgaim to purple.. there was another library name change but i don't remember what it was.
[08:51] <SeveredCross> I don't remember exactly, but I've always been told to shy away from using alien if at all possible.
[08:51] <loco> i havent found frost wire in the synaptic package installer
[08:51] <orasis> Don't use Alien for system stuff, and you will be fine.
[08:51] <SeveredCross> dnite: Gaim --> Pidgin was the other name change
[08:51] <Parmenion> loco: www.frostwire.com
[08:51] <orasis> Messing up a game will not be that big of a deal, and there is more chance that it works than fail.
[08:52] <Brade1> k
[08:52] <orasis> Simply don't alien system stuff.. or important stuff and you will be find :)
[08:52] <dnite> SeveredCross, lol.. well ya.. x=) i thought there was another library or something that had a name change..
[08:52] <underwatercow> the pidgin website says the version is 1.5.0, but the gaim I have is 2.0beta6, what is the reason for this difference?
[08:52] <nicolasbelisle> Rat409/ALL : is there a tool to show the actual network utilization (%), does netstat does that ?
[08:52] <orasis> Frostwire's source works better than any package though to be honest.
[08:52] <dnite> it was the console version of gaim, i think.. that got a name change too.. don't remember what it was though
[08:53] <orasis> At least with source you can see the problem and fix it quickly, whereas with a package.. you have no idea what is going on.. - like my seg faults.
[08:53] <Parmenion> orasis: you compiled or you used the .deb package ?
[08:53] <dnite> underwatercow, 1.5.0 is the latest 'stable' release of gaim .. but the 2.0.0 beta's are pretty stable themself.
[08:53] <orasis> Parmenion: Deb package
[08:53] <orasis> When I compile it works fine
[08:53] <orasis> Im on Xubuntu though, maybe it's the distro's prob with that specific deb
[08:53] <underwatercow> why is it still called gaim on the one I have?
[08:53] <Parmenion> hmm ... i might consider compiling it myself then ... ill just poke at it now
[08:54] <Parmenion> underwatercow: becuase it isnt updated in the repos
[08:54] <Oewyn> hey, i had a quick question (well hopefull it's quick).  I accidently burnt and installed the server version of fiesty, but i realized i would need gnome.  How do i go about doing this?
[08:54] <orasis> Parmenion: Yeah, compiling is always the best way to go with programs I find.
[08:54] <orasis> I only use packs when it comes to big stuff.. like Gnome and so forth.
[08:54] <dnite> underwatercow,  cause the 1st release of pigdin just came out today as 2.0.0beta7
[08:54] <Matir> Oewyn, install ubuntu-desktop
[08:54] <underwatercow> dnite: lol... gotcha
[08:54] <Phi1> hello :)
[08:54] <Oewyn> okay lemme try that, brb
[08:54] <orasis> Oewyn: install ubuntu-desktop
[08:54] <MSTK> hey, can anyone help me restore a corrupted tarball?
[08:54] <MSTK> any tools?
[08:54] <Brade1> where can i download 2.0.0beta 7?
[08:54] <SeveredCross> Corrupted...how?
[08:54] <orasis> sudo apt-get install **** to be exact.
[08:54] <Brade1> plz hel[
[08:54] <Brade1> *help
[08:54] <SeveredCross> Brade1: There's 2.0.0 beta 7?
[08:55] <SeveredCross> I didn't know they had put it out.
[08:55] <Parmenion> orasis: lol, true ... i try to stick to standard repos for system stuff .... dont want to mess up :P
[08:55] <SeveredCross> You probably would have to compile it from source.
[08:55] <Brade1> "cause the 1st release of pigdin just came out today as 2.0.0beta7"
[08:55] <orasis> Parmenion: haha no ;)
[08:55] <dnite> Brade1, u can download the source and compile it.. or just wait a day or 2 for it to get to repos..
[08:55] <dnite> or just wait a week for the final to be released.
[08:55] <SeveredCross> If it was in the repos, update-manager would've told you about it.
[08:55] <MSTK> SeveredCross - it was a backup that I made.  I'm unarchiving it now, but it timed out halfway.
[08:55] <Parmenion> SeveredCross: yep , source compile
[08:55] <Brade1> damn ok thx
[08:55] <Brade1> i dont like compiling
[08:55] <numan> Geoffrey2: u still there i have find a solution for you it worked for me let you try? go to this url--->http://www.universcinema.com/ww/chfr/videotrailer.php?titre=The-Condemned
[08:56] <Parmenion> Brade1: performance benefits!
[08:56] <Phi1> Got this problem. I have a centrino notebook with wireless lan. Just installed Ubuntu 7.04. The interface shows in the NetworkManager, wpasupplicant is installed, but I cannot select "WPA", only "WEP" for encryption. Any ideas?
[08:56] <Parmenion> not to mention its tailored for your system
[08:56] <orasis> Brade1: It's a good thing to learn, eventually you can compile 'distinct' programs custom designed.
[08:56] <Brade1> yea alright
[08:56] <Brade1> be bak later
[08:56] <Brade1> later guys
[08:56] <orasis> later
[08:57] <killermach_> Phi1: maybe your wireless hardware is old and doens't support WPA?
[08:57] <orasis> Me too, im going to compile Frostwire - long live tarballs.
[08:57] <Phi1> no, it works in windows
[08:57] <killermach_> my vaio is this way
[08:57] <Parmenion> orasis: its a simple make type install right ?
[08:58] <Harpette> i'm considering changing perms for files in /dev/pts/ from 620 to 660 (via /etc/default/devpts); is it so risky on a personal computer? The file will be created by the modem driver when active
[08:58] <keyvin> anyone know how well the unichrom DRI manager works?
[08:58] <underwatercow> so will pidgin be in the repo pretty soon?
[08:58] <burnerx> anyone know how to setup mpd & icecast ?
[08:59] <Parmenion> i hate wireless ...
[08:59] <Parmenion> its so damn slow .... give me wired anyday .
[08:59] <Harpette> keyvin: try #xorg?
[08:59] <SeveredCross> Phi1: Select the wireless network with WPA encryption as the one to connect to, it'll ask you for its configuration and WPA will be a choice.
[08:59] <Madpilot> underwatercow, for the 7.10 release, probably
[08:59] <SeveredCross> :)
[08:59] <MSTK> does anyone know of programs that can run popular IM clients (ie, AIM, MSN) within the command line terminal?
[08:59] <Harpette> MSTK: irssi?
[08:59] <DShepherd> MSTK, yuo
[08:59] <DShepherd> yup
[08:59] <DShepherd> pidgin
[08:59] <underwatercow> Madpilot: when will that be?
[09:00] <Madpilot> underwatercow, October this year - hence 7.10 - year.month
[09:00] <MSTK> Harpette - I'm using irssi right now.  But I'm looking for AIM and MSN.
[09:00] <Harpette> MSTK: oops
[09:00] <MSTK> DShepherd - care to enlighten me?
[09:00] <leviac> anyone have an image of a ubuntu floppy boot disk laying around?
[09:00] <DShepherd> MSTK, you using ubuntu? gaim-text
[09:00] <crptx> sup
[09:00] <Rat409> MSTK: naim,pork,centericq,or use bittlbee w/irssi
[09:00] <underwatercow> Madpilot: lol, I didn't realize that the version corresponded to the month and year
[09:01] <Phi1> SeveredCross: I don't understand; I am using NetworkManager, and I can only select "Properties" when right-clicking. In this dialog there is a "Password type" combo, but it only contains two WEP entries.
[09:01] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[09:01] <leviac>  laying around?
 MSTK, you using ubuntu? gaim-text
 sup
 MSTK: naim,pork,centericq,or use bittlbee w/irssi
 Madpilot: lol, I didn't realize that the ve
[09:01] <mugwump67> Can anyone field some general GRUB questions?
[09:01] <SeveredCross> Phi1: Left-click on the Network Manager icon in the taskbar.
[09:01] <Madpilot> underwatercow, that's where the numbers come from - 6.06 was released June/06, etc
[09:01] <SeveredCross> You should see a list of wireless networks.
[09:01] <MSTK> rat409 - thanks :)  that helps a lot
[09:01] <DShepherd> MSTK, man gaim-text for more info
[09:01] <SeveredCross> Just select the one you want to connect to and it'll ask you for any necessary information.
[09:01] <MSTK> DShepherd - for some reason gaim-text doesn't work for me.  Do I need to be using Feisty?
[09:01] <underwatercow> Madpilot: why wouldnt' repos be updated before then?
[09:01] <SeveredCross> That worked for me for WPA2 Enterprise, which is an order of complexity higher than WPA.
[09:01] <Madpilot> leviac, any actual reason you're repeating stuff at random?
[09:01] <crptx> fun
[09:01] <DShepherd> MSTK, oh.. yeah
[09:02] <Madpilot> underwatercow, no. released versions of Ubuntu only get security updates.
[09:02] <MSTK> DShepherd - I'm going to upgrade soon, anyway.  I'm going to check it out.
[09:02] <DShepherd> MSTK, no prob you do that
[09:02] <Parmenion> i would prefer a rolling release ...
[09:02] <Parmenion> the latest and greatest at my beck and call
[09:03] <mugwump67> Is it possible to install xp on a new drive and dual boot after installing ubuntu without clobbering grub?
[09:03] <SeveredCross> mugwump67: No, XP will overwrite GRUB.
[09:03] <mugwump67> thats what I thought
[09:03] <Hamm_sand> is there anyway to reset my ubuntu desktop settings to default in recovery mode?   I tried to install beryl  and i screwed myself over .... now i cant get a GUI
[09:03] <CarinArr> hey, i have a bit of a problem if anyone can help.. i had the nvidia drivers off nvidia's website installed but wanted to try the nvidia-glx-new. Uninstalled old drivers, installed package, which needless to say didn't work. so tried to remove all the nvidia stuff again which automatically removed linux-restricted-modules, and now i don't have a working nvidia OR wireless card
[09:03] <SeveredCross> You'll probably have to use a Ubuntu disk to restore grub.
[09:03] <CarinArr> any idea of solution?
[09:03] <mugwump67> so what do I do then?  whats the best way to back up my grub
[09:03] <SeveredCross> You can't back it up, there's no way
[09:03] <UberPsyX> hi, thinking of upgrading RAM on PC but dont know where the model number is, its an ASRock and its a couple of years old and has a chip on it saying SiS962Lua, anyone know how to find out?
[09:04] <Madpilot> Parmenion, there's been talk of a 'rolling release' version of Ubuntu - the infrastructure isn't in place yet, though.
[09:04] <Phi1> SeveredCross: I don't seem to have a "general" NetworkManager icon in my taskbar, only one with a tooltip saying "Wired network connection". The menu there does not feature any wlans to connect to
[09:04] <SeveredCross> Windows doesn't trash your actual GRUB bootloader, it just trashes the MBR that loads stage 2.
[09:04] <SeveredCross> Phi1: Strange.
[09:04] <SeveredCross> Is your wireless card...enabled?
[09:04] <troxor> has anyone gotten completely passwordless login working using libpam-keyring? I have installed the package, modified the pam files, and tried the gdmsetup options, but it still asks for a password (can be bypassed with <esc>, but displays it plain text!)
[09:04] <SeveredCross> (Check System --> Administration --> Network)
[09:04] <SeveredCross> It should be set to Roaming Mode.
[09:04] <kaolti> hi all
[09:04] <Harpette> CarinArr: reinstall the restricted modules?
[09:05] <kaolti> can anyone tell me how can i mount my ntfs partition so i have write acces to it?
[09:05] <Hamm_sand> can anyone help me reset my default gui settings in recovery mode?
[09:05] <Hamm_sand> i can't get into my gui...
[09:05] <Phi1> SeveredCross: When I open network settings I get three connectios. Wireless, Wired, and modem. Yes, it has roaming enabled. If I disable roaming in the properties section, I can see 4 wlans available for connection in the "network name" combo.
[09:05] <SeveredCross> Hamm_sand: Just make sure you're not booting into an XGL/Beryl session.
[09:05] <Hamm_sand> how do i do that
[09:05] <UberPsyX> hi, thinking of upgrading RAM on PC but dont know where the model number is, its an ASRock and its a couple of years old and has a chip on it saying SiS962Lua, anyone know how to find out?
[09:05] <SeveredCross> There should be a Sessions button on the login screen.
[09:05] <Harpette> Hamm_sand: what's in /var/log/X.0.log?
[09:05] <Hamm_sand> because by default it throws me into terminal
[09:05] <SeveredCross> Oh, you can't start X
[09:05] <SeveredCross> Okay, that's a different problem.
[09:06] <Hamm_sand> yeah i can't get to the login screen :/
[09:06] <SeveredCross> You probably trashed your xorg.conf with Beryl's install script.
[09:06] <Hamm_sand> yes
[09:06] <ke4nt> BACKUP MBR --> dd if=/dev/hdx of=MBR-backup bs=512 count=1 | RESTORE MBR --> dd if=MBR-backup of=/dev/hdx bs=512 count=1
[09:06] <Hamm_sand> how do i edit that in terminal
[09:06] <SeveredCross> Phi1: That's really odd.
[09:06] <Hamm_sand> is there a command?
[09:06] <SeveredCross> Hamm_sand: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:06] <SeveredCross> Though it's probably just one section about Composite.
[09:06] <SeveredCross> And you'll need to restore an older backup.
[09:06] <UberPsyX> hi, thinking of upgrading RAM on PC but dont know where the model number is, its an ASRock and its a couple of years old and has a chip on it saying SiS962Lua, anyone know how to find out?
[09:06] <SeveredCross> Preferably the latest one, use ls -al to check which one it is.
[09:06] <SeveredCross> UberPsyX: Stop repeating!
[09:06] <SpArTaKo> hay en espaol

[09:07] <UberPsyX> sorry lol i just gotta go in 5mins and wont be back for a couple of days
[09:07] <SeveredCross> Also, how are we supposed to know the type of RAM from a vague description of a board and a chip?
[09:07] <SeveredCross> If it's a couple years old, it's probably DDR
[09:07] <[Flux] > firestarter wont let me add any policies
[09:07] <[Flux] > everything is grayed out =/
[09:07] <SeveredCross> [Flux] : Did you run it as root?
[09:07] <UberPsyX> no i want to know how to find out which model of motherboard i have
[09:07] <SeveredCross> Oh.
[09:07] <[Flux] > i tried sudo firestarter
[09:07] <Ubuntulator> how do I open file browser as root ?
[09:07] <UberPsyX> i can find out the RAM from www.crucial.com
[09:07] <SeveredCross> Ubuntulator: gksu nautilus from a terminal.
[09:08] <UberPsyX> anyway gtg now, thanks anyway
[09:08] <Harpette> UberPsyX: do a search by FCC ID number
[09:08] <grndslm> how do i turn a script into an actual program that can be run from command line with switches & arguments?
[09:08] <SeveredCross> grndslm: chmod +x script
[09:08] <Madpilot> UberPsyX, take the side of the case off, peer around...
[09:08] <SeveredCross> Sudo as needed.
[09:08] <Rat409> [Flux] : try right-click
[09:09] <[Flux] > right click just shows show firestarter
[09:09] <mugwump67> SeveredCross:  if I reinstall grub after clobbering it with xp, my grub config will still be saved in /boot/grub/ right?  So all I really need is to be prepared to reinstall grub, I think
[09:09] <SeveredCross> mugwump67: Yep.
[09:09] <SeveredCross> You just need to get yourself to a terminal of some sort.
[09:09] <CarinArr> Harpette: yeah i get that.. but i don't get why though, as restricted modules weren't originally installed.. the wireless worked out of box
[09:09] <SeveredCross> And run grub-install hd0,0 or something like that.
[09:09] <SeveredCross> Probably just grub-install
[09:09] <mugwump67> have you heard of the "suber grub disk?"
[09:09] <Phi2> SeveredCross: Sorry, got disconnected (obviously). I left-clicked on the icon in the taskbar, like you said, and was able to connect to my networks. Thanks a lot!
[09:09] <Rat409> [Flux] : i mean in the config gui,add/remove rules
[09:09] <SeveredCross> You're welcome Phi1 .
[09:09] <mugwump67> "super grub disk"?
[09:10] <SeveredCross> *Phi2.
[09:10] <leviac> I have tried 3 different linux boot disks, I still cant access my usb cd drive, anything you guys recommend i try?
[09:10] <Harpette> CarinArr: then it's unrelated
[09:10] <[Flux] > hmm okay
[09:10] <grndslm> SeveredCross... i mean, how can i just type "newprogram SeveredCross" and have it write 20 sentences with your nick in it??  instead of typing ./newprogram...i guess my question comes more down to how to except arguments from the command line
[09:10] <CarinArr> Harpette: well it's not, as it worked perfectly before i removed them and doesn't work at all after i did;)
[09:10] <[Flux] > nope still grayed out
[09:10] <grndslm> *accept
[09:10] <SeveredCross> grndslm: You can't--if it's a script, you'll always have to do ./newprogram
[09:10] <Harpette> CarinArr: i got that, but then it sounds like it removed some other pkg than the linux-restricted modules
[09:10] <SeveredCross> It'll stilll accept commandline arguments though, I just don't know my way around Bash scripts well enough to tell you how to get them.

[09:10] <[Flux] > im gonna check the firestarter home page

[09:13] <mignus> the upgrade system in ubunto do not find 6.10 or 7.04
[09:13] <variant> [Flux] : it depends how you open it
[09:13] <variant> [Flux] : it needs to be run with root privaledges
[09:13] <SeveredCross> Tommy: Uhh....Why are you asking this in #ubuntu?
[09:13] <SeveredCross> Try #mandriva if it exists.
[09:13] <[Flux] > how can i set it up to do that by default?

[09:14] <r4nge> i have an x-fi soundcard in my ubuntu system, how would i disable it?  actually how can i disable any hardware?  i also have a wireless card inside that i would like to stop

[09:14] <[Flux] > whoa its LGKeiz
[09:14] <idiocrash> CONGRATULATIONS ON THE DELL DEAL UBUNTU!
[09:14] <LGKeiz> Could anyone help me install ndiswrapper without internet access, and the files for it.
[09:14] <Brade1> sorry that was to the wireless comment made earlier
[09:14] <SeveredCross> r4nge: Check your BIOS.
[09:14] <Hamm_sand> ahhh
[09:14] <SeveredCross> Generally you can't disable hardware on an OS level.
[09:14] <[Flux] > hi LGKeiz im Random* from RageZone :P
[09:14] <SeveredCross> if there's a way, I don't know it.
[09:14] <Hamm_sand> SEVEREDCROSS   TYTYTY   if i was there i would make you cookies
[09:14] <Hamm_sand> you just saved me much time and effort
[09:14] <SeveredCross> Mmm cookies.
[09:14] <SeveredCross> No problem Hamm_sand. :)
[09:15] <LGKeiz> hi flux
[09:15] <LGKeiz> lol
[09:15] <SeveredCross> Woah, woah woah.
[09:15] <SeveredCross> Slow down. :)
[09:15] <SeveredCross> I'm spoken for already.
[09:15] <Hamm_sand> rofl
[09:15] <Hamm_sand> j/k
[09:15] <LGKeiz> Could anyone help me install ndiswrapper without internet access, and the files for it. >_>;
[09:15] <idiocrash> Seriously, did you guys hear that dell will be distributing ubuntu?
[09:15] <r4nge> SeveredCross: but can't i just disable it in ubuntu?
[09:15] <SeveredCross> Not that I know of r4nge.
[09:15] <[Flux] > LGKeiz do you have the DVD ?
[09:15] <SeveredCross> How do you propose to disable hardware on the kernel level?
[09:16] <Brade1> has beta 7 for pidgin actually been relased to download yet or not?
[09:16] <Wriest> why when I click on beryl to start the cube effect, it moves sooo slow
[09:16] <LGKeiz> I have the live CD
[09:16] <SeveredCross> Brade1: It has.
[09:16] <LGKeiz> I already tried
[09:16] <r4nge> so in my bios i should look to disable the pci slots that the hardware is using?
[09:16] <SeveredCross> I just downloaded the source code.
[09:16] <SeveredCross> And compiled it.
[09:16] <SeveredCross> And I'm running it.
[09:16] <SeveredCross> r4nge: Or just an option to disable it plain out.
[09:16] <SeveredCross> My BIOS has the option to disable my wireless card.
[09:16] <LGKeiz> Inserted the CD -> and went to the SPM and searched for ndis
[09:16] <LGKeiz> didnt find anything
[09:16] <[Flux] > the only way other than the DVD would be to download it on another computer and transfer over lan lol
[09:16] <r4nge> ok, will check
[09:17] <LGKeiz> yes, thats fine.
[09:17] <Wriest> why when I click on beryl to start the cube effect, it moves sooo slow?
[09:17] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Do you have direct rendering working?
[09:17] <Wriest> where is that located
[09:17] <SeveredCross> To check, open a terminal, type in glxinfo | grep direct
[09:17] <LGKeiz> I just need the correct files or deb or whatever
[09:17] <SeveredCross> If you see "yes", then you do.
[09:17] <Wriest> I'm new sry
[09:17] <LGKeiz> so i can install it
[09:17] <SeveredCross> LGKeiz: Download them on another computer onto a pen drive.
[09:17] <SeveredCross> Make sure you have all of its dependencies though.
[09:17] <LGKeiz> np.. but which files?
[09:17] <LGKeiz> Because I have them from the sourceforge page
[09:17] <SeveredCross> You'll have to find out on packages.ubuntu.com
[09:17] <mignus> anybody want to help me get from 6.06 to 7.04 or do i have to go back to win xp
[09:17] <LGKeiz> but I can't make install em :P
[09:18] <Spliffster> Parmenion_: regarding installing ubuntu on a stick: has it been done all by hand (eg. fiddling for days) or are there any shortcuts trough a customized knoppix
[09:18] <LGKeiz> http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/feisty/misc/ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[09:18] <SeveredCross> mignus: Open /etc/apt/sources.list and replace any dapper entries with feisty.
[09:18] <LGKeiz> already did, but.. do I download the orginal's or.. the diff file?
[09:18] <Parmenion_> Spliffster: unsure ... sorry
[09:18] <Harpette> Hamm_sand: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:18] <SeveredCross> Or use the alternate CD.
[09:18] <[Flux] > LGKeiz: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=257840
[09:18] <[Flux] > see if that works for you
[09:18] <Wriest> do I type all of this glxinfo | grep direct
[09:18] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Yep.
[09:18] <LGKeiz> benn there already.

[09:21] <SeveredCross> sethl: Open the browser, it tells you.
[09:21] <Hamm_sand> one sec...
[09:22] <crdlb> !version | sethl
[09:22] <ubotu> sethl: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[09:22] <sethl> ah, thanks!
[09:22] <Wriest> so there's nothing I can do to speed it up?
[09:22] <SeveredCross> mignus: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:22] <SeveredCross> Replace any "dapper" with "edgy"
[09:22] <mignus> got help on the danish ubuntu irc channel
[09:22] <Hamm_sand> brb gotta switch pcs to paste
[09:22] <SeveredCross> Then do sudo update-manager -c -d or something like that.
[09:22] <LGKeiz> bbs :)
[09:22] <SeveredCross> Once you're done updating to Edgy, replace "edgy" with "feisty" in /etc/apt/sources.list and repeat the update-manager bit.
[09:23] <SeveredCross> Then you should be all set.
[09:23] <SeveredCross> Wriest: I really have no idea why glxinfo crashes.
[09:23] <Wriest> I have ubuntu with beryl 6.10
[09:23] <SeveredCross> Do you have the nVidia drivers installed?
[09:23] <SeveredCross> Eek, 6.10 with Beryl.
[09:23] <Wriest> I don't know
[09:23] <SeveredCross> I'd recommend ditching Beryl, installing Feisty and seeing if Desktop Effects works for you.
[09:23] <jlilly> My company uses RPC over HTTP and Exchange Server to do their mail transfer. Is it possible to access this through Evolution or some other program?
[09:23] <Wriest> v7.04
[09:23] <SeveredCross> I believe the Cube is still there in Desktop Effects, which is compiz based.
[09:24] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Which one do you have, make up your mind.
[09:24] <sethl> I am trying to install mysql-server on 6.10 via synaptic and/or apt-get.  Unfortunately, the server isn't starting up (it displays a [fail]  message) and dpkg returns a subprocess post-installation error and aErrors were encountered while processing" message "
[09:24] <sethl> is there any way to wipe mysql-server completely and try again?
[09:24] <Wriest> no I have 6.10
[09:24] <SeveredCross> Okay.
[09:24] <SeveredCross> I recommend you upgrade to Feisty.
[09:24] <SeveredCross> For one thing.
[09:24] <Wriest> oh ok
[09:24] <SeveredCross> Another, Beryl is kinda iffy, at least in my experience.
[09:24] <Wriest> thanx so much
[09:24] <SeveredCross> You may have better luck with Desktop Effects in Feisty.
[09:24] <Hamm_sand> SeveredCross:  what was the paste command?
[09:24] <CarinArr> iffy?
[09:25] <sethl> I wnt to upgrade to FF as soon as I can get my packages installed correctly
[09:25] <SeveredCross> !pastebin | Hamm_sand
[09:25] <ubotu> Hamm_sand: 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)
[09:25] <SeveredCross> CarinArr: Crashes a lot.
[09:25] <SeveredCross> At least it did for me.
[09:25] <CarinArr> i had less problems with edgy and beryl than i do with feisty and beryl
[09:25] <Hamm_sand> !pastebin | Hamm_sand
[09:25] <Wriest> so can i just install fiesty on top of this version or do I have to start all over again
[09:25] <an> hi, just instaled ubuntu 6.10 and i would like to find out what is the root password
[09:25] <sethl> I'm wondering if there's a way to blow away a package so I can try to install it again
[09:25] <SeveredCross> Wriest: You can just do a distribution upgrade
[09:25] <SeveredCross> an: There isn't one.
[09:25] <SeveredCross> You just use sudo
[09:25] <SeveredCross> No need for a root password.
[09:25] <an> ok
[09:26] <CarinArr> feisty has generally been pretty buggy for me where edgy was not
[09:26] <SeveredCross> You seem to have the opposite experience from most people I've spoken to.
[09:26] <Wriest> how do I do a distribution upgrade
[09:26] <CarinArr> actually my feisty worked better pre-release
[09:26] <CarinArr> which is ironic
[09:26] <SeveredCross> If you're good with Beryl and Edgy, help him get it working then.
[09:26] <MSTK> so apparently, centericq works.
[09:27] <sethl> where can I find more logs from a package install attempt?  dpkg.log doesn't have any info
[09:27] <sethl> I'd love to know why mysql-server fails to install
[09:27] <CarinArr> Wriest: generally if glxinfo crashes it's because of your graphics card drivers
[09:27] <variant> CarinArr: strange you should mention that, i only noticed one or two bugs after as well
[09:27] <Hamm_sand> SeveredCross: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18527/
[09:27] <CarinArr> variant: what sort of things?
[09:28] <Wriest> I have a GeForce 6100 GPU graphics card
[09:28] <SeveredCross> Hamm_sand: That looks okay to me...I don't know why Desktop Effects would refuse to start.
[09:28] <Wriest> is there a place to get update drivers for that
[09:28] <SeveredCross> Wriest: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new I think.
[09:28] <variant> CarinArr: hmm, a bit hard to remember.. some obscure things that havn't really shown up every time. hibernate no longer works for one.. (suspend never did), beryl crashed once or twice
[09:29] <CarinArr> since around release time my xserver has some weird flickering going on.. and seems to hang every once in a while when it goes to sleep
[09:29] <SeveredCross> That'll get you the proprietary nvidia driver.
[09:29] <Hamm_sand> SeveredCross:  hmm is there any way to restore the original file?
[09:29] <SeveredCross> Sleep has never worked for me.
[09:29] <SeveredCross> Hamm_sand: You can look at the other backups in /etc/X11
[09:29] <CarinArr> variant: seems similar to what i've seen then
[09:29] <Wriest> so I type sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[09:29] <CarinArr> Wriest: hang on.. do you have any nvidia drivers installed currently?
[09:29] <SeveredCross> Correct.
[09:29] <SeveredCross> CarinArr: He said he didn't know.
[09:30] <SeveredCross> I'm willing to guess not.
[09:30] <sethl> is there a way to force a package install via apt-get?
[09:30] <CarinArr> SeveredCross: problem is if there is something installed and he installs something else, nvidia likes breaking
[09:30] <Wriest> i don't know
[09:30] <SeveredCross> Well.
[09:30] <crdlb> sethl: you mean you have a .deb ?
[09:30] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf so we can look at it.
[09:30] <crdlb> and want to use apt-get ?
[09:30] <SeveredCross> That way we can check what driver you're using.
[09:31] <mwe> sethl: yes, but it's usually bad.
[09:31] <Wriest> how do I do that
[09:31] <SeveredCross> Wriest: First, type gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf in a terminal.
[09:31] <mwe> sethl: there is usually a good reason why something won't install normally
[09:31] <sethl> crdlb: I have the deb, as it was downloaded via apt-get
[09:31] <SeveredCross> Copy/paste the contents of that file
[09:31] <SeveredCross> !patebin | Wriest
[09:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about patebin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:31] <SeveredCross> !pastebin | Wriest

[09:31] <Wriest> oh ok
[09:31] <SeveredCross> To a pastebin as directed in that link.
[09:31] <sethl> mwe: yeah, can't figure out where to find the root cause of the install failure
[09:32] <mwe> sethl: don't just force it, then. it might  break things
[09:32] <an> hi, i need to move a folder into lib/module
[09:32] <an> how do I do that
[09:32] <SeveredCross> an: sudo mv
[09:32] <SeveredCross> Though why do you need to move the folder?
[09:32] <an> can you be more specific
[09:32] <SeveredCross> If it needs to be there, it'll get put there by whatever you're installing.
[09:32] <SeveredCross> an: man mv
[09:32] <SeveredCross> I'd venture to guess mv's a pretty simple command
[09:33] <SeveredCross> mv source destination
[09:33] <SeveredCross> You need sudo because /lib/modules isn't normally writeable by users.

[09:33] <SeveredCross> Oi.
[09:33] <SeveredCross> Not too bright that Wriest.
[09:33] <SeveredCross> Pastebin != paste.
[09:33] <SeveredCross> Thank god he Excess Flood-ed himself off.
[09:33] <CarinArr> might not have done it on purpose
[09:33] <SeveredCross> True.
[09:33] <SeveredCross> I've hit Shift-Insert before.
[09:34] <SeveredCross> Damn this small laptop keyboard.
[09:34] <SeveredCross> I reach for backspace and my finger hits Insert.
[09:34] <SeveredCross> Couldn't tell you how, it just does.
[09:34] <bas> in gnome i can change the keyboard settings, which works fine. how does this work technically though? in my xorg.conf the old settings are still preserved...
[09:34] <intelikey> what package/s do i need to remove to get shed of all the ubuntu-desktop stuff ?
[09:35] <SeveredCross> ubuntu-desktop :)
[09:35] <holycow> actually no
[09:35] <SeveredCross> No?
[09:35] <holycow> thats just a metapackage
[09:35] <SeveredCross> Oh, right.
[09:35] <bas> ... i would like to achieve the same in a different window manager...
[09:35] <holycow> that doesn't remove anything
[09:35] <SeveredCross> bas: It's a gnome setting.
[09:35] <holycow> i forget what the file is but there is a main gnome library that you need to remove and it will pull everything gnome out via that
[09:35] <SeveredCross> I think he just wants to remove ubuntu branding.
[09:36] <SeveredCross> Though I'm not sure.
[09:36] <bas> SeveredCross: i know. but how does it work though? does it tell x11 through dbus or sth the changed keyboard settings?
[09:36] <Hamm_sand> going to reboot..... keep yer fingers crossed
[09:36] <SeveredCross> bas: It doesn't need to.
[09:36] <SeveredCross> Gnome hooks the keyboard itself.
[09:36] <SeveredCross> And ignores X.
[09:36] <holycow> thats would be a fair amount of work
[09:36] <SeveredCross> As far as I understand it anyway.
[09:36] <Lexikon> i have  damaged my file  sshd_config  ,  uninstall  ssh  and  reinstall dont  resolve  me the  problem . i  got error  that no file or  directory  sshd_config  exist . help me please
[09:36] <bas> SeveredCross: hmm.
[09:36] <SeveredCross> I think that's what happens.
[09:36] <dreamcastjack> hey guys, whats up?
[09:36] <holycow> no i don't think gnome bypasses x
[09:36] <SeveredCross> Don't quote me on that.
[09:37] <holycow> that would be fairly dumb
[09:37] <holycow> err i don't mean it that way :)
[09:37] <SeveredCross> Then how does it use different keyboard settings?
[09:37] <burnerx> i need help setting up ices2 & icecast2 for music streaming
[09:37] <SeveredCross> I know my Gnome keyboard setting is for some random reason different from my X setting.
[09:37] <SeveredCross> And Gnome occasionally moans about it.
[09:37] <Wriest> how do use suo
[09:37] <Wriest> sudo?
[09:37] <pkundu> hi, I want to store in an Perl array the result of pressing TAB key twice in a bash shell.Any idea how can I do that ?
[09:37] <SeveredCross> And I tell it to use the Gnome setting because it makes more sense and I'm too lazy do change my X setting.
[09:37] <holycow> yeah i can't remember the specifics right now, so i'll shush on that point
[09:37] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Just type sudo before the command.
[09:37] <SeveredCross> pkundu: Try #perl?
[09:37] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Eg. sudo apt-get install
[09:38] <intelikey> so libgnome*    but that wont remove oo.o or ff or any of the other  ubuntu-desktop stuff will it ?    is there a list some place so i can remove them all ?
[09:38] <CarinArr> !sudo | Wriest
[09:38] <ubotu> Wriest: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:38] <Wriest> in a terminal right
[09:38] <SeveredCross> intelikey: That's a bad idea.
[09:38] <SeveredCross> Removing libgnome* will remove a LOT of stuff
[09:38] <SeveredCross> In fact, probably the majority of your system.
[09:38] <h4wk0> Wriest; yes
[09:38] <Wriest> so type this sudo apt-get install
[09:38] <dreamcastjack> how many different distros have you guys used?
[09:39] <SeveredCross> 3.
[09:39] <Wriest> first and then !sudo | Wriest
[09:39] <CarinArr> Wriest: if you're more comfortable, use synaptic to install it
[09:39] <intelikey> SeveredCross: that's an openion.
[09:39] <Hamm_sand_deskto> dang
[09:39] <CarinArr> dreamcastjack: a few.. why?
[09:39] <Hamm_sand_deskto> still not working
[09:39] <SeveredCross> intelikey: What, that it'll remove a good portion of our system?
[09:39] <dreamcastjack> i've used about. 9-10
[09:39] <Lexikon> removed  accidently  /etc/ssh/* .  how  to reinstall this  directory ?
[09:39] <dreamcastjack> just curious
[09:39] <intelikey> SeveredCross: that it's a bad idea
[09:39] <Wriest> ok now I'm lost
[09:39] <SeveredCross> Oh.
[09:39] <Wriest> what is it I'm installing
[09:39] <SeveredCross> I dunno, IMO it's not a good idea to remove all the gnome libs.
[09:39] <CarinArr> i've used the same distros, several times over;) does that count
[09:39] <dreamcastjack> i really enjoy a few.
[09:39] <variant> Lexikon: try dpkg-reconfigure ssh
[09:39] <h4wk0> no Wriest !sudo | Wriest was a command for the bot to show you something
 Wriest: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:39] <variant> !ssh
[09:40] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[09:40] <Wriest> oh ok
[09:40] <h4wk0> Have a read of that page
[09:40] <CarinArr> probably 7.. but i kept coming back to debian, and now ubuntu
[09:40] <SeveredCross> I started using Slackware, which was a bad place to start, though I had fun tinkering.
[09:40] <CarinArr> my first linux was debian potato
[09:40] <SeveredCross> Oh, make that 4, I forgot about pure Debian.
[09:40] <dreamcastjack> Ubuntu first and foremost. then Freespire,PCLOS,Xubuntu,Puppy,Slax and Dreamlinux
[09:40] <Wriest> but type only in the terminal
[09:40] <dreamcastjack> hated Mepis tho
[09:40] <SeveredCross> I started with Slackware, used Fedora Core, then pure Debian, then Ubuntu
[09:40] <Snap> hey
[09:40] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Sudo is only useful in the terminal.
[09:40] <dreamcastjack> i prefer debian based Distros myself
[09:41] <h4wk0> tbh Wriest i dont think you should use any sudo commands - You need to learn linux first
[09:41] <Wriest> well it said  !sudo: event not found
[09:41] <AzulSolaris> Hey everyone how's it going?
[09:41] <dreamcastjack> sudo commands are pretty easy, i've been using linux maybe 3 months as my main OS and I LOVE IT! command line is quite useful
[09:41] <ansel1> Good
[09:42] <SeveredCross> Yep.
[09:42] <dirtydel8110> how do i open programs i install on ubuntu
[09:42] <SeveredCross> Don't fear the commandline. :)
[09:42] <phos-phoros> Wriest, try sudo -
[09:42] <SeveredCross> dirtydel8110: They're probably in the Applications menu
[09:42] <CarinArr> three months and 9 distros? quick work
[09:42] <SeveredCross> Eek, sudo - is a bad idea for him.
[09:42] <SeveredCross> Err, sudo -s I presume you meant.
[09:42] <gelzi> Hi all, I just installed Ubuntu on my Fujitsu-Siemens T4210, and my main problem is, that after a resume from a standby, the backlight doesn't come up.
[09:42] <SeveredCross> Or one of those.
[09:42] <AzulSolaris> I need y'alls help on a particular issue: when I try to install the Flash 9 plugins on my machine, it tells me it encounters an error, something about "newline"
[09:42] <dreamcastjack> when I first started I was like "stupid command line" but man I love it now.
[09:42] <CarinArr> dirtydel8110: often they will show up in your menu if you're using kde or gnome, else try typing the program name into a terminal
[09:42] <AzulSolaris> Anyone of y'all have any tips about how to get it to install nice and proper?
[09:43] <mojojojo_> hello I have atypical favour to ask. A friend of mine asked me to translate an abstract of thesis. Thogh, I'm more capable of doing it than she is, I don't find myself capable enough to do it flawlessly. Therefore I need your help. If you have a moment to read this (only a few lines) and make suggestions about correcting the text, I would be very grateful. The text is obviously translated to English. http://eugeneciurana.com/pastebin/pastebin.php?show=

[09:43] <AzulSolaris> Yes I am, DreamcastJack
[09:43] <Wriest> and I appreciate you guys being patient with me
[09:43] <dreamcastjack> just go to a website that requires it and it will say "Plug-i missing" click it..and done

[09:44] <Hamm_sand_deskto> i'm going to reformat  :/
[09:44] <dreamcastjack> Plug-in^
[09:44] <Hamm_sand_deskto> someone   drink a beer for me
[09:44] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Use Synaptic (System --> Administration --> Synaptic Package Manager) and install nvidia-glx-new if it's not already.
[09:44] <SeveredCross> Hamm_sand_deskto: If it was legal for me to, I would.
[09:44] <gelzi> Any Ideas how to map the backlight to some key?
[09:44] <AzulSolaris> I tried that, had to manually download it.
[09:44] <AzulSolaris> : (
[09:44] <dreamcastjack> should install it no problems.. you on 7.04?
[09:44] <Hamm_sand_deskto> anyone familiar with linksys routers?
[09:44] <CarinArr> is there an nvidia-glx-new package in edgy?
[09:44] <SeveredCross> Hamm_sand_deskto: Very.
[09:44] <Hamm_sand_deskto> can we  pm each other so i don't spam the channel?
[09:45] <SeveredCross> CarinArr: No clue, there is one in Feisty.
[09:45] <SeveredCross> Hamm_sand_deskto: Go ahead.
[09:45] <desheikh> heya
[09:45] <AzulSolaris> Negative, I'm on 6.06
[09:45] <SeveredCross> Negative on nvidia-glx-new?
[09:45] <SeveredCross> He's on 6.10, so he may have it.
[09:45] <CarinArr> SeveredCross: the feisty one is new
[09:45] <desheikh> anyone here using mono and glade-3 on feisty ?
[09:45] <SeveredCross> Mono and Glade 2 here.
[09:45] <CarinArr> Wriest: try nvidia-glx (without the -new)
[09:45] <AzulSolaris> Err yeah, 6.10, LOL, sorry been a long day, mate.
[09:46] <SeveredCross> Didn't know there was a Glade 3.
[09:46] <SeveredCross> Though I generally use Stetic and MonoDevelop for GUI design and not Glde.
[09:46] <SeveredCross> *Glade.
[09:46] <AzulSolaris> I have the the stuff downloaded and when I run it in terminal, it errors.
[09:46] <CarinArr> AzulSolaris: do you want to !pastebin the error?

[09:47] <Wriest> If you have a TNT, TNT2, or older GeForce, you may need the nvidia-glx-legacy

[09:49] <SeveredCross> That's the problem.
[09:49] <an> hi i need to install my lan it isrtl8139b and for some reason ubuntu 6.10 does not recognize it
[09:49] <SeveredCross> I think you have to do some nastiness with chroot jails and stuff to install Flash Player on x86_64
[09:49] <AzulSolaris> Oh happy day. xD
[09:49] <Wriest> ok I installed it
[09:49] <Wriest> now whatt
[09:49] <LGKeiz> Uhm
[09:49] <LGKeiz> Servre you there?
[09:50] <AzulSolaris> Yeah, it also doesn't work with the .rpm file. -_-
[09:50] <SeveredCross> Yep, I'm here.
[09:50] <LGKeiz> I'm missing Ultities :p
[09:50] <SeveredCross> Hmm?
[09:50] <MetaMorfoziS> !lm-sensors
[09:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lm-sensors - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:50] <SeveredCross> Didn't you downlaod the utilities .deb?
[09:50] <LGKeiz> for ndiswrapper
[09:50] <MetaMorfoziS> !lmsensors
[09:50] <SeveredCross> !info lm-sensors
[09:50] <ubotu> You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[09:50] <ubotu> lm-sensors: utilities to read temperature/voltage/fan sensors. In component main, is extra. Version 1:2.10.1-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 489 kB, installed size 1508 kB
[09:50] <LGKeiz> No, common and the other.
[09:50] <SeveredCross> Oh, hum.
[09:50] <Wriest> ok now should I try beryl
[09:50] <dreamcastjack> for me it would look like this. sudo cp /home/dreamcastjack/Desktop/install_flash_player_9_linux/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
[09:50] <Snap> Saybayon
[09:50] <LGKeiz> Also... It saids I have a invalid driver, when I know the driver is correct :P
[09:50] <SeveredCross> Wriest: Did you run sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[09:51] <Wriest> not yet
[09:51] <dreamcastjack> that will work like a charm if done correctly
[09:51] <thebillywayne> someone ask about a printer?
[09:51] <AzulSolaris> lol, I'll try it DCJack.
[09:51] <thelostpatrol> hey i have a question about audio players for fawn -- i had some players on there and they sounded flat. what's a good player to use (perhaps coupled with alsamixergui?) to get a better sound?
[09:51] <Wriest> in the terminal right
[09:51] <dreamcastjack> cool
[09:51] <LGKeiz> SeveredCross - Got a download link for the ult, :] ?
[09:51] <dreamcastjack> just space between the 2 directories
[09:51] <SeveredCross> LGKeiz: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?searchmode=filelist&word=ndiswrapper-utils-1.9&version=feisty&arch=i386
[09:52] <Wriest> I'm trying not to get the white screen
[09:52] <SeveredCross> That's ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[09:52] <SeveredCross> Ooops.
[09:52] <variant> anyone looking for msn webcam support apparantly the cvs version of amsn has webcam support
[09:52] <SeveredCross> That's the file list.
[09:52] <SeveredCross> This is what you want: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=i386&file=pool%2Fmain%2Fn%2Fndiswrapper%2Fndiswrapper-utils-1.9_1.38-1ubuntu1_i386.deb&md5sum=e8876c665294254b55b32c02f629ac78&arch=i386&type=main
[09:52] <LGKeiz> lol
[09:53] <LGKeiz> There used to be a ult which installed the driver for you
[09:53] <LGKeiz> easily and no terminal needed, but I know terminal, but it was much easier with it :p
[09:53] <dirtydel8110> where do i find background images on ubuntu
[09:53] <LGKeiz> any idea what it's called
[09:53] <h4wk0> Right guys - I have a 100gb hdd
[09:53] <SeveredCross> No clue.
[09:53] <h4wk0> And i want to use 20gb for dual boot (windows and ubuntu)
[09:53] <SeveredCross> Never needed to use ndiswrapper.
[09:53] <LGKeiz> Because I'm bout to reboot into Ubuntu again and try to get this working -.-;
[09:53] <LGKeiz> well..
[09:53] <LGKeiz> here I go again! lol
[09:53] <LGKeiz> bbs
[09:54] <Wriest> I type in what you told me and it said it made a backup and it said my X configuration has been succesfully changed
[09:54] <h4wk0> What should i have for / /home and swap?
[09:54] <variant> h4wk0: how much ram you got?
[09:54] <SeveredCross> swap should be about 1-1.5 times your RAM.
[09:54] <h4wk0> 1024
[09:54] <SeveredCross> At least that's what I've been told. ::shrugs::
[09:54] <desheikh> anyone have glade-3 files running with mono?
[09:54] <AzulSolaris> DCJack, didn't work mate. :(
[09:54] <variant> h4wk0: then you don't need any swap (unless you want to use suspend)
[09:55] <CarinArr> hang on
[09:55] <variant> SeveredCross: the old swap == 2x ram rule of thumb was from when computers only had 32mb ram
[09:55] <CarinArr> i'd still recomment at least 1x ram for swap
[09:55] <defjux> it seems like whenever my ram gets full and my system goes to the swap file it starts working SUPER DUPER slow.. any ideas why??
[09:55] <variant> SeveredCross: it's completly irrelevent nowadays
[09:55] <CarinArr> just in case he uses something heavy
[09:55] <SeveredCross> I think I have about 900 MB swap.
[09:55] <h4wk0> varient, if i want to use suspend
[09:55] <h4wk0> 1gb of swap should do it?
[09:55] <CarinArr> there's no point with more than 1x swap if you have plenty of ram though
[09:55] <SeveredCross> And I think my swap never goes above 3%
[09:55] <dreamcastjack> thats really weird
[09:55] <variant> h4wk0: then you need at least the same amount of swap as you ahve ram
[09:55] <SeveredCross> h4wk0: If you want to use suspend/hibernate you need at least 1x RAM.
[09:56] <SeveredCross> So 1024+
[09:56] <CarinArr> h4wk0: yeah, make it just more than 1024 though if you want to suspend
[09:56] <variant> h4wk0: 1.5gb should do
[09:56] <h4wk0> Ok
[09:56] <dreamcastjack> hmm I dunno man. try the ubuntu forums
[09:56] <h4wk0> Now about / and /home
[09:56] <dreamcastjack> ubuntuforums.org
[09:56] <SeveredCross> Split / and /home up halfway?
[09:56] <dreamcastjack> sorry I couldnt help
[09:56] <dreamcastjack> i'm still pretty new
[09:56] <CarinArr> i have 2gb of ram and i think so far all i've used is 8kb of swap during normal run;)
[09:56] <variant> h4wk0: / should only need to be about 3 or 4 gb if you are limmited on space, /home all the rest
[09:57] <h4wk0> Varient - Not limited on space
[09:57] <AzulSolaris> JAck, should it look like  sudo cp /home/mark/Desktop/install_flash_player_9_linux/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins on MY console?
[09:57] <variant> h4wk0: in that case.. 6gb for / and all the rest for /home
[09:57] <CarinArr> h4wk0: i have loads of space and i keep my / at 20gig, leave rest for home and data
[09:57] <CarinArr> have some software that takes up plenty
[09:57] <dreamcastjack> that looks right to me
[09:57] <Wriest> now I got the whit screen
[09:58] <h4wk0> Ok right now your going to kill me, Whats the best partion program (I am still on windows)
[09:58] <u2k7> hi, I get no gnome-panel shadows with beryl.. any ideas why?
[09:58] <CarinArr> h4wk0: i'd just the partition editor on the live cd rather than a windows one
[09:58] <AzulSolaris> I dunno, Jack, apparently my motherboard config and Linux hate each other deeply.
[09:58] <AzulSolaris> AMD 64 -_-
[09:58] <Wriest> how do I fix the white screen?
[09:58] <dreamcastjack> what motherboard are you using?
[09:58] <h4wk0> carinarr - I am using an ATI x1300 gfx card
[09:58] <h4wk0> Live CD doesnt work :)
[09:59] <CarinArr> h4wk0: the alternate cd still has a partition editor though
[09:59] <h4wk0> Right just to go over this
[09:59] <h4wk0> 1.5gb for swap
[09:59] <CarinArr> you get to a point where it asks where you want to install, you pick manually edit partition table or something along those lines
[09:59] <dreamcastjack> i have a AMD 64 motherboard myself
[09:59] <dreamcastjack> no problems
[09:59] <h4wk0> 8gb /home
[09:59] <h4wk0> no 8gb for /
[09:59] <h4wk0> rest for /home
[10:00] <Wriest> How do I fix the white screen
[10:00] <CarinArr> h4wk0: how much is the "rest"?
[10:00] <stefg> !beryl | Wriest
[10:00] <ubotu> Wriest: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[10:00] <awk_> what channel should i celebrate dell-ubuntu support in ?
[10:00] <h4wk0> 10gb CarinArr
[10:00] <CarinArr> h4wk0: then yeah, put it on /home
[10:01] <AzulSolaris> You're a lucky man then, Jack, don't spend whatever's left of it in a card game. ;)
[10:01] <variant> awk_: they confirmed it then?
[10:01] <awk_> variant: it's on digg
[10:01] <dreamcastjack> alright?
[10:01] <dreamcastjack> are you using onboard video?
[10:01] <CarinArr> if i have plenty of space i normally keep a separate data partition just to give me the option to back up stuff from /home if for whatever reason i need to format it
[10:01] <variant> awk_: oh, reliable informatio then
[10:01] <CarinArr> plus i keep mp3s and stuff on the data partition rather than home
[10:01] <taavi> the digg blog post was taken off
[10:01] <awk_> taavi: yeah
[10:02] <AzulSolaris> Nah, don't think so.
[10:02] <tonyyarusso> taavi: We're investigating - something's going on.
[10:02] <tonyyarusso> also @ awk_, variant
[10:02] <variant> perhaps the blog was defaced..
[10:02] <awk_> http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/en/document?c=us&l=en&s=gen&docid=2F0A15EB21C7E5DDE040A68F5B285AAE&cs=
[10:02] <awk_> read this
[10:03] <dreamcastjack> have you ever thought about upgrading to 7.04?
[10:03] <carlesoriol> How can i hide tray icon when vinoserver/vnc is connected in feisty?
[10:03] <tonyyarusso> variant: No.  I can confirm that closing things back up was a direct decision from Canonical.
[10:04] <AzulSolaris> To be honest, No I haven't. I barely learned tonight how to get my videocard issue solved..
[10:04] <AzulSolaris> I'm pretty sure upgrading to 7.04 would bring headaches. :P
[10:04] <dreamcastjack> nvidia?
[10:04] <tonyyarusso> variant: Wait until morning and maybe we'll know more than that - for now, just hold your horses, b/c things may be very different from what people have said.
[10:04] <variant> tonyyarusso: i see, don't really care tbh.. if dell goes with ubuntu then great but I hate all this garbage talk that always happens with things like this
[10:04] <AzulSolaris> ATI Radeon Xpress200
[10:04] <dreamcastjack> ah
[10:05] <dreamcastjack> ATI and Linux are not best friends are they?
[10:05] <AzulSolaris> Not at all, mate. Boy did that take a while to figure out what to do.
[10:05] <Wriest> when ever I use beryl I get the white screen?
[10:05] <dreamcastjack> i try to stick to Nvidia for linux.. but then again i'm about to build a PC w/ Via Unichrome video... that'll be fun..not
[10:05] <AzulSolaris> I've barely been running Linux about.....2 or 3 days because Vista decided to screw me over, so I took it out back and buried it. LOL.
[10:06] <Wriest> I updated my drivers
[10:06] <Hamm_sand> vista is gayness
[10:06] <CarinArr> my nvidia cards are all perfect, apart from when i try to use packaged drivers
[10:06] <dreamcastjack> my wife uses vista.. i'm not a huge fan myself
[10:06] <u2k7> Wriest, white where?
[10:06] <Wriest> the screens turned white
[10:06] <sgtmattbaker> I installed Ubuntu-server on an old machine and it is now in a continual loop, it gets to where it should load Ubuntu server and then just reboots back to the first BIOS screen and starts over again.
[10:06] <Wriest> there's nothing there
[10:06] <Hamm_sand> sry woops
[10:07] <dreamcastjack> Building the Unichrome via machine for Xubuntu to put in the living room for guest to use when they come over.
[10:07] <Wriest> when I scroll a the bottom its hows me what there that's how Im chatting now
[10:07] <dreamcastjack> i ahte people using my Linux Box..lol
[10:07] <dreamcastjack> hate^
[10:08] <sgtmattbaker>  I installed Ubuntu-server on an old machine and it is now in a continual loop, it gets to where it should load Ubuntu server and then just reboots back to the first BIOS screen and starts over again.
[10:08] <Wriest> now but when I minimize the screen the desktop is white
[10:08] <dreamcastjack> sgt did you try reinstalling it?
[10:08] <sgtmattbaker> no
[10:08] <dreamcastjack> i've never ran a server..just and idea
[10:08] <dreamcastjack> it might work..definently couldny hurt
[10:08] <dreamcastjack> couldnt*
[10:08] <h4wk-desktop> Right time to go dual booting
[10:09] <Wriest> do you think I try the upgrade thing
[10:09] <SeveredCross> Time to a-sleeping.
[10:09] <Hamm_sand> be back in a bit
[10:09] <thelostpatrol> hey can anyone tell me how to get out of "party mode" in rhythmbox?
[10:09] <thelostpatrol> it's causing my screen to just be black
[10:09] <SeveredCross> Hit F11?
[10:10] <thelostpatrol> worked, thanks
[10:10] <SeveredCross> (BTW, Banshee FTW!)
[10:10] <weas3l> thelostpatrol, try using xmms?
[10:10] <SeveredCross> :)
[10:10] <SeveredCross> Is xmms even developed anymore?
[10:10] <thelostpatrol> is that a universal key for getting out of full screen?
[10:10] <Wriest> in windows my speakers work but when I in linux there's no sound
[10:10] <thelostpatrol> i could use that :P
[10:10] <SeveredCross> Yeah actually.
[10:10] <SeveredCross> F11 generally toggles full screen mode.
[10:10] <weas3l> i've never heard of Banshee, SeveredCross, what *is* it?
[10:10] <SeveredCross> Couldn't tell you why.
[10:10] <SeveredCross> weas3l: It's an audio player.
[10:10] <SeveredCross> Ties closely in with the Gnome desktop.
[10:11] <weas3l> well, *duh* :P
[10:11] <SeveredCross> Written in C#/mono.
[10:11] <SeveredCross> C# on top of mono that is.
[10:11] <weas3l> ah, but i'm not using gnome.
[10:11] <stefg> !players

[10:11] <Wriest> how can I get my sound to work
[10:11] <SeveredCross> You could run it on Xfce too probably, it might not look as pretty.
[10:11] <stefg> !sound | Wriest
[10:11] <ubotu> Wriest: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[10:11] <weas3l> meh, my pretty is in the sleekness ;)
[10:11] <wqy> fdsfds
[10:11] <thelostpatrol> man i love feisty fawn
[10:11] <weas3l> gnome is just too big for me
[10:11] <thelostpatrol> especially with beryl
[10:11] <thelostpatrol> :D
[10:11] <wqy> hao
[10:11] <vonderer> hi there
[10:11] <MenZa> thelostpatrol: agreed ;)
[10:12] <vonderer> 'got a problem
[10:12] <thelostpatrol> i made it look all sweet and it's just amazing now
[10:12] <weas3l> i can't wait for my vid card's drivers to be updated for feisty so i can use beryl.
[10:12] <wqy> rpm
[10:12] <vonderer> about evilXP and GRUB
[10:12] <h4wk-desktop> Humm - Im doing a dual boot on tha alternate cd
[10:12] <AzulSolaris> Wow, I feel bad for my Mormon girlfriend. She's hearing me cursing a storm up and down because I can't get the Flash plugin to work. -_-
[10:12] <intelikey> ah and removing  gconf* will shed another 100m   i'm getting there slowly.
[10:12] <h4wk-desktop> Where is the partion manager?
[10:12] <h4wk-desktop> Cant see it on the list
[10:12] <MenZa> AzulSolaris: rofl.
[10:12] <dreamcastjack> lol
[10:13] <thelostpatrol> azul - hahahah
[10:13] <vonderer> well, that's the problem
[10:13] <sgtmattbaker> does ubuntu server work on machines with 64MB RAM? I installed it and when it gets to where it should load Ubuntu server and then restarts back to the BIOS and does the same thing over and over again in a continual loop
[10:13] <vonderer> GNOME parted seem to have problems displayng partitions
[10:13] <vonderer> it shows unallocated space
[10:14] <acuariosur> hola
[10:14] <vonderer> and I cannot remove MBR from /dev/sda1, where my winXp is installed
[10:14] <u2k7> Wriest, don't know sounds like driver problem
[10:15] <stefg> sgtmattbaker: according to the specs 64 MB is the minimum for -server. Might be a kernel problem or even some bad ram
[10:15] <AzulSolaris> mark@mark-desktop:~$ /home/mark/Desktop/# rpm -Uvh <rpm_package_file>
[10:15] <AzulSolaris> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[10:15] <vonderer> when I mount my general ubuntu partition and say it chroot
[10:15] <vonderer> after that, grub-install
[10:15] <vonderer> there are no /dev/sd* there at all
[10:15] <intelikey> stefg  64m  ram ?
[10:16] <dreamcastjack> Azul you got the ,rpm package w/ the flash player?
[10:16] <sgtmattbaker> stefg: hmmm odd.  puppy ran on it.. maybe I should try dapper server?
[10:16] <intelikey> stefg to install ?
[10:16] <AzulSolaris> Indeed, downloaded it from the flash site.
[10:16] <dreamcastjack> .rpm*
[10:16] <stefg> intelikey: for /server/ -> no X
[10:16] <dreamcastjack> tahts your problem
[10:16] <variant> vonderer: you don't need (infact, shouldn't) chroot to reinstall grub
[10:16] <dreamcastjack> thats^
[10:16] <intelikey> stefg i can run it in 32m    dapper
[10:16] <vonderer> variant: I can do it directly from liveCD?
[10:16] <variant> vonderer: but if you want to use grub-install you may have to i suppose, you need to mount /dev/ and /proc under the chroot too
[10:17] <intelikey> stefg only need 64 to install.
[10:17] <variant> vonderer: it's simple enough with the grub shell
[10:17] <dev__> How to change boot splash image ??
[10:17] <variant> vonderer: from live cd just type sudo grub
[10:17] <dreamcastjack> you need the .tar.gz
[10:17] <AzulSolaris> well the tar.gz tells me it's incompatible with my x86_64
[10:17] <vonderer> ahh
[10:17] <stefg> sgtmattbaker: i'd give dapper a shot... better for a server anyway, because it's LTS
[10:17] <dreamcastjack> that makes no sense
[10:17] <vonderer> but there comes another problem
[10:17] <AzulSolaris> You're telling me, DCJack. @_@
[10:17] <dreamcastjack> hmm I dunno now..
[10:17] <AzulSolaris> I'm neck deep in confusion over here.
[10:18] <variant> vonderer: which is?
[10:18] <sgtmattbaker> stefg: ok.  this machine is old and I just want SOME functionality out of it.. maybe a CLI cd player or something I dunno.  I also wanted to setup a ftp server
[10:18] <h4wk-desktop> Where is the 'Alternate' CD's partitioner
[10:18] <dreamcastjack> and now I am..lol thanks pal
[10:18] <variant> sgtmattbaker: cplay is a nice ncurses mp3 player
[10:18] <variant> sgtmattbaker: although unmaintained iirc
[10:18] <vonderer> when I do sudo grub, after that - find /boot/grub/stage1, then root (hd0,5) and setup (hd0), it seems to be perfect
[10:18] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker what specs ?      i do minimalest
[10:19] <u2k7> how do I get the usplash in 16:9 ?
[10:19] <vonderer> but then: Error 12: Invalid device requested
[10:19] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: AMD K-6 333MHz, 4GB IDE HDD, 64MB PC100 RAM
[10:19] <stefg> sgtmattbaker: then dapper is probably your best bet... you won't need beryl, upstart nor libata
[10:19] <variant> vonderer: then you specified the wrong device as the root device?
[10:19] <vonderer> just right after Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+15 p (hd0,5)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/menu.lst"... failed
[10:19] <vonderer> nope
[10:19] <vonderer> it found only that one
[10:19] <Wriest> how do I get my sound to work
[10:19] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker that's the box i'm running now.....
[10:19] <AzulSolaris> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18530/plain/
[10:19] <AzulSolaris> There you go, DCJack
[10:19] <intelikey> except i have 256m ram...
[10:19] <variant> vonderer: remember that in grub /dev/hda1 is called (hd0,0)
[10:19] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: lol what do I do?
[10:20] <Wriest> I change the settings but still no sound?
[10:20] <u2k7> Wriest, whats your mobo?
[10:20] <variant> vonderer: all you need to do is run the following from inside the grub shell:
[10:20] <h4wk-desktop> Im installing using alternate cd - However - I need to use the partioner - Where is that?
[10:20] <vonderer> grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
[10:20] <vonderer>  (hd0,5)
[10:20] <vonderer> what about that?
[10:20] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker you need a little more ram if you want to run gnome or kde in it.  it could do something light like blackbox or twm   as is.
[10:20] <Wriest> what you mean MOBO?
[10:20] <u2k7> Wriest, whats your hardware?
[10:20] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: did you see what happened when I tried to put feisty server on it?
[10:21] <dreamcastjack> hey try the sudo cp like the last time
[10:21] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker but as far as going commando on it.   it's plenty fine for that.
[10:21] <dreamcastjack> with the tars d/l
[10:21] <Wriest> sbLive
[10:21] <stefg> wriest: http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html
[10:21] <dreamcastjack> tarz^
[10:21] <dreamcastjack> tar.gz..lol
[10:21] <AzulSolaris> Can you hook me up with the code again?
[10:21] <dreamcastjack> damn
[10:21] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker no.  but this installer is what's giving you fits      correct ?
[10:21] <Wriest> SB Live 5.1
[10:21] <sgtmattbaker> just said I had low RAM and so it would run in low RAM mode
[10:21] <Wriest> ok
[10:22] <dreamcastjack>  sudo cp /home/dreamcastjack/Desktop/install_flash_player_9_linux/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
[10:22] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: I installed it and when it gets to where it should load Ubuntu server and then restarts back to the BIOS and does the same thing over and over again in a continual loop
[10:23] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker yeah.  if you can barrow a stick just for the install it will be fine.   but if that's not an option.   go with dapper.  you can install the server on 64m with it  iirc.
[10:23] <u2k7> Wriest, try this.. audio preferences (via the speaker icon in the tray, not the System>Preferences>Sound panel) and under the Switches tab, disabling the digital jack
[10:23] <stefg> sgtmattbaker: so i'd run a ramcheck, to rule hw-problems out. I guess kernel 2.6.20 doesn't like your mobo
[10:23] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker wait it does what ?
[10:23] <Wriest> ok
[10:23] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: look up
[10:23] <AzulSolaris> DCJack, told me "Segmentation Fault"
[10:23] <intelikey> yeah let me digest that.
[10:24] <dreamcastjack> hmmm
[10:24] <dreamcastjack> shit
[10:24] <vonderer> I begin to hate my SATA hdd...
[10:24] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | dreamcastjack
[10:24] <ubotu> dreamcastjack: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:24] <dreamcastjack> do SATA HDDs give problems in Linux ?
[10:24] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker that sounds like a grub issue.      nothing to do with linux really    it just the boot loader
[10:25] <dreamcastjack> i dunno how to help man.. i'm stumped
[10:25] <vonderer> that one: I cannot revive my MBR after installing winxp
[10:25] <sgtmattbaker> hmm
[10:25] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: what should I do
[10:25] <intelikey> !grub | sgtmattbaker have a look at
[10:25] <ubotu> sgtmattbaker have a look at: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:25] <dreamcastjack> so SATA drives are fine?  gonna upgrade my HHD didnt know if I wanted P-ATA or S-ATA
[10:26] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker second link
[10:26] <vonderer> well
[10:26] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: wy didn't grub install correctly with ubuntu server
[10:26] <vonderer> sata is fine at last. my hands: that's the problem
[10:26] <stefg> sgtmattbaker: intelikey is probably right... for some reason the /boo/grub/menu.lst contain a wrong entry
[10:26] <Wriest> no it still don't work
[10:27] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker idk.    did the same for me.    you don't have and scsi hd in there do you ?
[10:27] <sgtmattbaker> no IDE
[10:27] <AzulSolaris> Still nothing, DCJack, I too am stumped man.
[10:27] <Alarm> hello, where can i find what 386 , 486, 586 , 686 kernel stands for ?
[10:27] <Warbo> Has anyone noticed major slowdowns with Feisty? It is becoming incredibly frustrating waiting for a minute just for Epiphany to register a link being clicked, or Rhythmbox to change a song :(
[10:27] <dreamcastjack> Azul look at this and see if it'll help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=290785
[10:27] <stefg> !generic | Alarm
[10:27] <ubotu> Alarm: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[10:27] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker different hardware...  same problem...    no idea why really    just know i don't like grub.    "my fix was install lilo"
[10:27] <Wriest> the funny thing is the mic work just fine
[10:28] <Alarm> stefg, this doesnt tell me what it is , but where to find it
[10:28] <thomas_> yopyop
[10:28] <sgtmattbaker> hmm
[10:28] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: this kinda sucks
[10:28] <dreamcastjack> are you using 64 bit ubuntu?
[10:28] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker yessir
[10:28] <sanityx> ewww dreamcastjack
[10:28] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: should I try dapper server?
[10:28] <AzulSolaris> Yes I am, JAck.
[10:28] <thelostpatrol> anyone know if i can get an EQ for rhythmbox?
[10:29] <AzulSolaris> This might just work, amigo. I'm going to give it a shot, brb.
[10:29] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker yeah i think i would.
[10:29] <dreamcastjack> k
[10:29] <sgtmattbaker> intelikey: ok downloading
[10:29] <chico> #Ubuntu-fr
[10:29] <dreamcastjack> i use the 32 bit version.has better support Ath the moment
[10:29] <stefg> Alarm: you can compile the kernel with optimizations for different processor-types (indicated by the suffix). But that's no longer a concern... just use -generic and be comfortable :-)

[10:32] <dreamcastjack> did you
[10:32] <dreamcastjack> crap
[10:33] <dreamcastjack> crap
[10:33] <AzulSolaris> This thing's gonna fight me every step of the way. LOL
[10:33] <vonderer> how can I revive my /boot/grub/stage1 file?
[10:34] <moonwatcher> i am not sure what i did to deserve this, but the "shut down" and "restart" options have disappeared from everywhere, the menu i get when i choose "quit" and the login gdm window...
[10:34] <moonwatcher> any ideas?
[10:34] <intelikey> sgtmattbaker   ummmm we used to install   'sndconfig'   to setup isa sound cards.  i think they dropped that though
[10:34] <AzulSolaris> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18531/plain/
[10:34] <stefg> moonwatcher: your current user does not have the privileges to shut the box down, i suspect
[10:34] <dreamcastjack> i didnt wanna resort to this but http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[10:35] <dreamcastjack> d/l it and it should install it for you
[10:35] <Wriest> u2k7: hey I tried everything but still there's no sound coming out but the mic works just fine
[10:35] <mojojojo_> what is the tool for reminding of events for gnome/Ubuntu? like if I want to be reminded I have to do some exercise or something like that?
[10:35] <AzulSolaris> lol, it's not going to over-write any of THIS, is it?
[10:35] <dreamcastjack> it should be fine
[10:35] <AzulSolaris> Because, man, I busted my butt trying to find out how to get my vid card working.
[10:36] <AzulSolaris> Alright, Jack, I'm trusting ya here amigo. ;)
[10:36] <dreamcastjack> whats the worse that could happen..lol
[10:36] <Wriest> Can someone help me with my sound?
[10:36] <dreamcastjack> now that i said that...
[10:36] <pressureman> Wriest, sure, what kind of sound do you make?
[10:36] <moonwatcher> stefg: i don't have it on the gdm login window either
[10:37] <stefg> Wriest: get a terminal, type 'alsamixer' and see if outputs like master or pcm are muted
[10:37] <Wriest> there's no sound coming from my speakers like when I use windows xp
[10:37] <Wriest> but my mic works fine
[10:37] <chico> hello
[10:37] <AzulSolaris> Johnny Cash is on the stereo, so I doubt anything bad could happen. :D
[10:37] <chico> i cant download any folders with fire fox
[10:38] <chico> please help me
[10:38] <stefg> moonwatcher: add a new user with admin privileges and see if the problem is with that user, too
[10:38] <Wriest> none
[10:38] <dreamcastjack> cool
[10:38] <AzulSolaris> Alright, DCJack, got it installed, went pretty well.
[10:39] <Wriest> all are working fine
[10:39] <AzulSolaris> Am I going to have to reboot?
[10:39] <dreamcastjack> probably not
[10:39] <Wriest> pressureman
[10:39] <moonwatcher> stefg: what should i put under "main group"
[10:39] <moonwatcher> ?
[10:40] <stefg> not sure... 'users' ?

[10:43] <rambo3> Wanderer, no -
[10:43] <rambo3> Warbo, soundconverter
[10:43] <intelikey> ok i'm off for a reboot.  if it works it will be the first thing this install hosed that i have fixed.  there are other things too.

[10:44] <thebillywayne> or advantages?
[10:45] <rambo3> ask in #freebsd
[10:45] <zero1> hello!  anyone here who can tell me if "uswsusp" is ok?  i'm trying to make hibernate work.  i'm using kubuntu, but this is not kubuntu specific, i guess...
[10:46] <stefg> burnerx: there are some scripts to do that floating on the web, but it's far better to re-rip

[10:46] <Warbo> thebillywayne: More control over some options/features, possible speed and stability benefits by disabling some options you don't need
[10:46] <Wriest> can someone tel me if you can use glass
[10:46] <Warbo> thebillywayne: Binary/interpreted packages are more convenient though, so I prefer them (as long as source is stil available if I need it)
[10:47] <thebillywayne> Warbo, well that sounds good.  i'd like to learn.
[10:47] <stefg> Wriest: BTW this could be interestig https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-utils/+bug/94189
[10:47] <Wriest> ok
[10:47] <Wriest> thanx
[10:47] <zero1> what's that mean, i'm not using AMD.  not available for Intel?
[10:47] <Wriest> I got it to work

[10:48] <burnerx> Warbo, what about mp32ogg
[10:48] <Garnol> Hi
[10:48] <Warbo> thebillywayne: The standard way of compiling stuff is to run "./configure" in the source folder to set it up, "make" to build it and then either "sudo make install" to install it manually or "sudo checkinstall" (using the checkinstall package) to make a package out of it. This could be different for different programs though, so always read the file "INSTALL" which comes with the source you want to build
[10:48] <Wriest> I just wanted to know if you could use glass effect
[10:48] <ALVA_jkt> hello
[10:49] <dreamcastjack> lol crap
[10:49] <JepZ> How can i give a user the right to run xinit (with whole Xsession)?
[10:49] <Wriest> I saw it on some web site

[10:49] <DerekTGreen> how do I get a screen resolution higher than 1400x1050?
[10:49] <rambo3> thebillywayne, for the most part , compiling is  waste of time  unless it is fluxbox with png menus you are trying to compile from source

[10:51] <Warbo> rambo3: I think knowing how to compile things is useful. Especially learning for fun and knowing how to when you need it, rather than trying to learn how to because your needed program isn't available
[10:52] <Garnol> in suse i hade a screenresolution of 800x600 ....
[10:52] <DerekTGreen> ok. thank you!

[10:52] <rambo3> and this is offtopic
[10:52] <qwast> hello
[10:53] <Warbo> thebillywayne: No, that won't work. The configure script is different for each program, hence the "./" at the beginning, which tells the system to run it from the current folder (a dot in Linux means the current folder, two dots means the parent)
[10:53] <enjoi> anyone wanna help me with an ident server?

[10:54] <Warbo> Gentoo users like to know how their systems work, and tweak everything. Ubuntu "just works" (although things can be modified, they don't have to be)
[10:54] <holycow> i've never met a gentoo user that knows how their system works
[10:55] <defjux> is that supposed to be a good or bad thing?
[10:55] <defjux> i think ubuntu is the system with the most people who have no idea how it works..
[10:55] <Warbo> defjux: Neither. That is why one is not definitively better than the other.
[10:55] <holycow> thats a silly way to look at it
[10:55] <holycow> we are all on a learning curve
[10:55] <rambo3> holycow, #gentoo gets same level of questions as #debian
[10:56] <stefg> folks, take that #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[10:56] <holycow> inevitably the better you want to get at getting your box to do something the more you learn
[10:56] <defjux> i think the ability to run a linux distro and not understand it is an important advance for the community.
[10:56] <holycow> ergo, the closer you get to knowing how your system works
[10:56] <holycow> rambo3, precisely
[10:57] <Warbo> Anyone know why my system goes so slow after upgrading to Feisty? I heard a slightly slower GCC is used or something? The performance hit I have got is quite terrible :(
[10:57] <holycow> as well its not precisely necessary to know how each component of your system works, you just need to know hgow to loook up theinfo and figure out how to get it to do what you need
[10:57] <holycow> the only real point of value i think is that you CAN do something about it vs say the osx or windows approach
[10:58] <holycow> Warbo, define 'slow' precisely
[10:58] <MikeC2> Are there any official press releases on the Dell + ubuntu thing?
[10:58] <holycow> you mean gui interface/gnome/kde or other processes?
[10:58] <gflash> hello
[10:58] <holycow> MikeC2, no, its a rumour
[10:58] <Warbo> Epiphany takes about 30-60 seconds to realise that I've clicked on a link
[10:58] <h4wk-desktop> Wooo
[10:58] <h4wk-desktop> Dual boot worked first time!!!
[10:58] <Warbo> Rhythmbox can't play songs without jumping
[10:58] <holycow> Warbo, no its not feisty there is something wrong with your install
[10:59] <Warbo> thought so, but I don't know what
[10:59] <holycow> Warbo, i would bet you have a runaway process sucking up your cpu @ 100%
[10:59] <gflash> i have a problem with my Canon LIDE 25 Scanner in Kooka. It worked perfectly in edgy, but since feisty ist gives me only a black picture and the scanner doesnt even move
[10:59] <MikeC2> holycow : Sure?
[10:59] <Warbo> top tells me Xorg likes taking up a lot of my CPUs
[10:59] <holycow> in terminal do top and see whats eating your cpu cycles, it sounds like you click ends up in a queue and takes time to process it to get to your click
[10:59] <holycow> Warbo, well how much actually?
[10:59] <holycow> MikeC2, yes
[11:00] <stefg> Warbo: that's a frequently heard issue with feisty...
[11:00] <Warbo> around 16%, until I do something like move a window or the text area in GAIM scrolls up, then it goes to about 95%
[11:00] <MikeC2> .. what sources?
[11:00] <holycow> Warbo, oh thats a hdparm issue i think
[11:00] <holycow> i don't have my link here
[11:00] <holycow> if you were to check your sysinfo you would probably notice that the system polls your ide interface
[11:01] <holycow> and crashes the ide drivers and has to restart the process
[11:01] <holycow> then after a while the system goes back to normal right?
[11:01] <holycow> and process repeats intermittently?
[11:01] <Warbo> Yeah, I think there are a load of messages like that in dmesg and stuff
[11:01] <holycow> yeah
[11:01] <stefg> Warbo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2560147
[11:01] <holycow> i have that on feisty and a laptop
[11:01] <Warbo> although I use SATA, can I turn off IDE?
[11:01] <holycow> i don't have the bugtracker link for ya here
[11:02] <h4wk-desktop> Why am i getting an error on my / partion :(
[11:02] <holycow> Warbo, you should be able to turn off a service to stop the polling (if it actually is the same problem)
[11:02] <holycow> and the issue goes away
[11:02] <Warbo> (but the power management does cause a kernel panic due to my HD, so I have to disable it at GRUB :( )
[11:02] <holycow> but then you can't plug in a usb key an dhave it automagically mounted, you haveto do that manually
[11:02] <Stonekeeper> hi. I have a server that every night CRON goes zombie. Any idea?
[11:02] <holycow> i forget which process right now tho
[11:03] <Wriest> how do I Install  themes
[11:03] <Warbo> would I just blacklist a driver or something?

[11:11] <foug> does anyone here use a g15 logitech keyboard?
[11:12] <Flonares> i have problems partitioning my laptop disk
[11:12] <starkruzr> ssam: Well, that's a pile of crap, isn't it?
[11:12] <Flonares> i have problems partitioning my laptop disk, hence i cannot install ubuntu... any ideas?
[11:12] <stefg> Flonares: you got to be more specific
[11:12] <vollkorn> Flonreas: Sure, if you can tell us a little more.
[11:13] <ssam> starkruzr, http://www.saveourtunes.com/ has instructions for downgrading
[11:13] <starkruzr> ssam: Well, as of last month people are working in earnest, which is nice.
[11:13] <Flonares> stefg, i cannot partition it! when i start to resize, the partition says there is an error
[11:13] <starkruzr> Ah, good.
[11:13] <daaaman64> heh, resizing doesn't work very often.
[11:13] <Flonares> i only have one primary partition left. I have 3 primarys already made, from origin.
[11:13] <enrico> Hi.  Where can I find mozilla composer in feisty?  I tried main restricted universe and multiverse without much luck, searching for mozilla, mozilla-browser and iceape
[11:14] <Flonares> daaaman64, resizing always worked great for me.
[11:14] <sldkfj> :  Is there any way to check if the settings for the cd creator in gnome are set to 'all at once'?
[11:14] <starkruzr> ssam: The only trouble is that the instructions appear to only be for Mac.
[11:14] <vollkorn> Flonares: What kind of error exactly?
[11:14] <starkruzr> er, Windows.
[11:14] <starkruzr> I'm on a Mac.
[11:14] <Flonares> vollkorn, he can't resize.
[11:14] <Wriest> I found I lot of themes I want
[11:14] <Flonares> vollkorn, he can't resize. that the erro.
[11:14] <stefg> Flonares: that probably means that the widows partition isn't in good shape. boot to windows, do a filesystem check there first, and defragment, so that all data is shifted to the beginning ot the partition
[11:14] <sanityx> whats the name of the ttf core package?
[11:14] <sanityx> (truetype fonts)
[11:15] <Flonares> ok stefg
[11:15] <ssam> starkruzr, you need to put ubuntu on your mac :-) what will solve all the problems
[11:15] <vollkorn> Flonares: I'd suggest the same like stefg: make sure the partition you want to resize is in a good shape
[11:15] <Flonares> rgr
[11:15] <Flonares> starting maintenance...
[11:16] <Flonares> i'll be back soon, so don't miss me :)

[11:17] <stefg> Flonares: if you have some imaging software like ghost or true image it might be quicker to backup, repartition and restore the win-image to the smaller win-partition
[11:17] <Flonares> stefg, if i had the disk space for it ;)
[11:17] <Flonares> which isn't the case
[11:17] <Flonares> besides, i don't have any backup system
[11:17] <sldkfj> :  Is there any way to check if the settings for the cd creator in gnome are set to 'all at once'?
[11:17] <Flonares> besides the XP tools
[11:17] <stefg> Flonares: how much space have you left?
[11:18] <Flonares> 30 GB
[11:18] <stefg> Flonares: and how big is the win part in total?
[11:18] <Flonares> stefg, 90 GB
[11:19] <sldkfj> :  Is there any way to check if the settings for the cd creator in gnome are set to 'all at once'?
[11:19] <collision4> hi
[11:20] <stefg> Flonares: hmmm.... that's too much to put on DVDs or CD as backups. See... shrinking is somewhat risky, i'd never go without a backup. Since you'll need a backup ayway i'd consider getting a USB hd
[11:20] <collision4> is ubuntu still supported for powerPC computers?
[11:20] <daaaman64> yes
[11:20] <stefg> !ppc | collision4
[11:20] <ubotu> collision4: PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[11:20] <mrcreativity> hello all you helpful people out there
[11:20] <sldkfj> post your question, "hi" is for off topic.
[11:20] <collision4> ok
[11:20] <collision4> cool
[11:21] <philipsmith> I want rythmbox to play CDs when I insert a CD. When I go to System > removable drives > multimedia there is a place to specify rhythmbox as the default audio player. What are the arguements I should use for the command line?
[11:21] <xjkx> a guy on xubuntu said they dont have the same source.list i am lost
[11:21] <collision4> i've an old iBook and I realised it should have ubuntu :)
[11:21] <Flonares> stefg, I know that :)
[11:21] <Flonares> anyway, i need to create a new partition
[11:21] <mrcreativity> i was wondering why my laptop battery drains faster in ubuntu as compared to windows
[11:22] <Flonares> mrcreativity, the power managing isn't very perfected.
[11:22] <sldkfj> collision4, also be aware, in the event you don't get an answer it will make you a bit ornery.
[11:22] <ssam> collision4, should work fine. check out  the powerpc bit of the forum if you need help
[11:22] <xjkx> help
[11:22] <mrcreativity> so im not being paranoid
[11:22] <planarian> hello, i'm looking to use subversion via a livecd while having winxp installed... any thoughts?
[11:22] <defjux> mrcreativity: its because ubuntu is more powerful.
[11:22] <collision4> ok, will do
[11:22] <collision4> thanks
[11:22] <variant> mrcreativity: you can modify settings in an advanced way
[11:22] <mrcreativity> more powerful than windows?
[11:22] <sldkfj> eg. you chipper attitude might suffer damage.
[11:23] <Flonares> mrcreativity, no. I have the same prob. I have a duo core, at it drains like hell in windows, and like superhell in linux
[11:23] <sldkfj> your
[11:23] <variant> mrcreativity: and alter the way power management is applied
[11:23] <xjkx> a guy on xubuntu said they dont have the same source.list i am lost
[11:23] <variant> mrcreativity: really depends on the make of the acpi/bios implementation though
[11:23] <sanityx> evolution or thunderbird?
[11:23] <ssam> mrcreativity, the tickless stuff in the 2.6.21 kernel should help (but it wont be in ubuntu until gutsy)
[11:23] <mrcreativity> i c
[11:23] <xjkx> !!!
[11:23] <kayef> anyone from malaysia?
[11:23] <collision4> wait - would you recommend i use the officially supported 6.10 or the community supported 7.04?
[11:23] <Flonares> xjkx, so what?
[11:23] <defjux> ssam whats tickless?
[11:23] <sldkfj> :  Is there any way to check if the settings for the cd creator in gnome are set to 'all at once'?
[11:23] <sanityx> collision4: 7.04 is officially supported. you're thinking of LTS, which is 6.06
[11:24] <sanityx> LTS = LONG TERM support
[11:24] <mrcreativity> i dont notice a difference in speed when running on the battery, as compared to windows
[11:24] <Flonares> xjkx, what's the problem with having a different sources.list?
[11:24] <collision4> ah
[11:24] <xjkx> floating, so that i am confused ;/ and this information is important coz i will have to write
[11:24] <ssam> collision4, 7.04 though you may have sound problems with it
[11:24] <feta__> why doesn't my synaptic know nvu, seamonkey or almost anything? i have all repositories enabled.
[11:24] <ssam> collision4, try the live cd of both if you can
[11:24] <sldkfj> :  Is there any way to check if the settings for the cd creator in gnome are set to 'all at once'?
[11:24] <mrcreativity> i dont know if the speedstepping thing is working
[11:24] <xjkx> floating, i dont really care. I am writing about buntus
[11:24] <collision4> ssam: good idea, thanks
[11:24] <xjkx> floating, a guy here said they have the same source.list
[11:24] <stefg> !info seamonkey
[11:24] <ubotu> Package seamonkey does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:24] <xjkx> And there they said they dont
[11:24] <xjkx> Thats why i am confused
[11:25] <stefg> !info nvu
[11:25] <ubotu> Package nvu does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:25] <mrcreativity> is there a way of cloning my system so that i can get my current setting back if i need to reinstall?
[11:25] <sldkfj> :  Is there any way to check if the settings for the cd creator in gnome are set to 'all at once'?
[11:25] <stefg> !cloning
[11:25] <sldkfj> speaking of any ways
[11:25] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type "dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages", move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type "sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade" - See also !automate
[11:25] <variant> mrcreativity: easy to find out
[11:25] <collision4> whoops
[11:25] <planarian> anyone have an idea if it is possible to run subversion using a LiveCD (Feisty) on an XP-installed machine?
[11:25] <collision4> got disconnected there
[11:25] <Wriest> where do I find GTK 2.x
[11:25] <Flannel> xjkx: they all share the same repositories.  They might have different mirrors, but it's the same stuff.
[11:25] <variant> mrcreativity: cat /proc/cpuinfo, will tell you current mhz and max mhz
[11:26] <Flonares> xjkx, still don't understand your problem...
[11:26] <ssam> defjux, means the cpu can sleep more when the computer is idle. have a search on google, there is lots of info
[11:26] <mrcreativity> !automate
[11:26] <ubotu> Ways to automate installation of Ubuntu on multiple machines are described at https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html - See also !cloning
[11:26] <variant> planarian: yes, in the live cd just type sudo apt-get install subversion
[11:26] <Wriest> where do I find GTK 2.x
[11:26] <Flonares> xjkx, be more specific!
[11:26] <xjkx> floating, my problem is that if i say they have the same source.list in a tutorial and they dont, i will be lying, So i must be totally sure about it, and i am not downloading them all, but thanks
[11:26] <planarian> variant: thanks! i'll try that! =) --p.s. is Feisty the only distro that can currently do this?
[11:26] <collision4> one more question, not strictly related to ubuntu - if i do a proper installation of ubuntu on the iBook, wiping MacOS X, is it easy to reinstall Mac OS in the event I need it again?
[11:27] <Warbo> Anyone know how I would disable HAL, or whatever is causing this unneeded IDE polling? It doesn't seem obvious from perusing /etc/rcX.d
[11:27] <Flonares> xjkx, that bullshit. that doesn't make any sense!
[11:27] <[Flux] > finally got x-chat working the way i want it too
[11:27] <variant> planarian: no, any live cd
[11:27] <Flannel> xjkx: they won't have identical sources.list no.  But they do all share the same repositories.  They'll have different mirrors (heck, even Ubuntu has dfferent mirrors, based on location--you get country mirrors)

[11:28] <mrcreativity> i have copied the my packages file i created
[11:28] <Wriest> thanx
[11:28] <mrcreativity> so the next time i need to install ubuntu...i should?
[11:28] <Flannel> planarian: liveCDs run the same regardless of what the OS of a harddrive is.
[11:28] <ssam> collision4, yes the mac os x installer can wipe the hard disk
[11:28] <collision4> ok
[11:28] <variant> planarian: if your using the live cd it really doesn't matter whats installed
[11:28] <feta__> if seamonkey and nvu cannot be found under synaptic, what does ubuntu suggest to use as a wysiwyg html (not xhtml) editor, then?

[11:29] <planarian> :(
[11:29] <Flannel> planarian: Are you connected to the internet on that liveCD?
[11:29] <planarian> Flannel: yes.
[11:29] <Flonares> feta__ , do you want a suggestion? use automatix!
[11:29] <Flannel> !automatix | Flonares, feta__
[11:29] <ubotu> Flonares, feta__: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[11:29] <Flannel> planarian: do `sudo apt-get update` first, then try intsalling it.
[11:29] <aidan> planarian: sudo apt-cdrom if you're using a livecd
[11:29] <Flannel> Flonares: please don't recommend automatix here.
[11:29] <planarian> Flannel: thanks! i'll try that! :)

[11:33] <tigger924> how can i prohibit certain modules from being loaded when i insert a pcmcia card
[11:33] <stefg> biouser_: that's offtopic.... and usually involves rmoving the battery and/or switching a jumper fr some time
[11:33] <tigger924> ?
[11:33] <sipior> biouser_: i'm pretty sure ubuntu didn't do that :)
[11:33] <Wamphyri> i don't think any os on its own can do it

[11:33] <biouser_> sanityx : how hard is it to remove cmos battery from laptop?
[11:33] <Wamphyri> which requires a 3rd part application
[11:34] <biouser_> I didn't think so
[11:34] <MikeC2> or get a very special app for in-os junk.
[11:34] <zcat[1] > biouser_: got a soldering iron and a set of jewlers screwdrivers?

[11:34] <biouser_> I didn't change anything though
[11:34] <sipior> zcat[1] : lol
[11:34] <MikeC2> biouser_ : most of the time they are very well set, but some designed arent that hard to dislodge.
[11:34] <sanityx> biouser_: depends on the laptop
[11:34] <sanityx> brb
[11:34] <Flonares> baba_andrea, that's interesting... can it be a hardware failure?
[11:34] <tigger924> how can i prevent that the hotplugging system loads certain modules when i insert a pcmcia card?
[11:34] <mrcreativity> biouser_: if u can see the batteru
[11:35] <mrcreativity> biouser_: u can remove ut
[11:35] <stefg> !blacklist | tigger924
[11:35] <ubotu> tigger924: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[11:35] <biouser_> ACPI is a little weird  in Feisty it seems as opposed to Edgy
[11:35] <MikeC2> biouser_ : depending on the manufacturer call them and ask about the default pass
[11:35] <biouser_> Toshiba satellite
[11:35] <mrcreativity> i cant seem to sign in to my hotmail account with linux
[11:35] <baba_andrea> Flonares: yes, I think that maybe is a mem problem and I buy a new ddr ram of 1G but now the problem is the same, I don't know how I can understand what is the hardware problem
[11:36] <biouser_> I much prefer gmail to hotmail
[11:36] <mojiu> gooe
[11:36] <planarian> aidan: what does apt-cdrom do?
[11:36] <Wamphyri> any particular reason why su - rejects my password?
[11:36] <MikeC2> baba_andrea : have you tested your hard drive?
[11:36] <tigger924> thanks ubotu, will try it
[11:36] <Wriest> what is root mode?
[11:36] <mrcreativity> so do i, but i do have the account, and i do need to check my email
[11:36] <zcat[1] > Wamphyri: because it's wrong?
[11:36] <mojiu> i am new
[11:36] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : funny
[11:36] <biouser_> Wriest : you can get into it with......... sudo -s -H
[11:36] <zcat[1] > !root | Wriest
[11:36] <ubotu> Wriest: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:36] <variant> Wamphyri: because ubuntu uses sudo not su unless you specifically set the root password
[11:37] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : same password works when i use the system tools
[11:37] <variant> Wamphyri: run sudo -i
[11:37] <stefg> baba_andrea: there's a bootoption to perform a memtest. let that run overnight, then you know if it's memory related
[11:37] <Wamphyri> ok
[11:37] <Wamphyri> thank you
[11:37] <tigger924> is it normal, that i have to create my_blacklist. There is no such file in /etc/modprobe.d
[11:37] <variant> tigger924: yes
[11:37] <baba_andrea> MikeC2: I perform a test mem from grub menu but how I can perform an entire hardware test?
[11:37] <tigger924> ok
[11:37] <mrcreativity> why are different releases supported until different dates?
[11:37] <baba_andrea> stefg: yes, the test was good
[11:37] <zcat[1] > Wamphyri: ahh.. su not sudo.. su expects the root password. Do not try to use the root password, that is impossible. Instead realise the trust; there is no root password.
[11:37] <Wamphyri> variant: thank you again
[11:38] <zcat[1] > *truth
[11:38] <biouser_> removing cmos battery will reset bios password? We are certain?
[11:38] <MikeC2> baba_andrea : look up the Ultimate Boot CD, really the only other main component you need to test other than ram is the hard drive.
[11:38] <mrcreativity> dapper drake is supported till 2009, but FF on sep 2008. i dont get it
[11:38] <variant> Wamphyri: yw
[11:38] <MikeC2> biouser_ : that indeed can happen
[11:38] <Wamphyri> biouse: after several days
[11:38] <variant> mrcreativity: dapperdrake is long term support version
[11:38] <mrcreativity> biouser_: it will, and all bios setting as well
[11:38] <mrcreativity> but why the difference?
[11:38] <Wamphyri> biouser_: it will reset but after several days
[11:38] <MikeC2> baba_andrea : use the diagnostics for your drive manufacturer and do a 'long test'
[11:39] <sipior> mrcreativity: so folks running servers don't feel obliged to upgrade every six months
[11:39] <biouser_> Wamphyri : someone was saying 30 seconds
[11:39] <variant> mrcreativity: because canonical wants to have one version that people will know is supported, they can't deal with suport for all the ubuntu versions that will be released if they were all long term support
[11:39] <planarian> what does apt-cdrom do? (as opposed to apt-get) ?
[11:39] <MikeC2> mrcreativity : it also serves as a good stable package base for other derivatives like Mepis and such.
[11:39] <Wamphyri> biouser_: i have never seen a bios reset in 30 seconds just from removing the battery
[11:39] <variant> planarian: it's not what you want, use apt-get
[11:39] <variant> planarian: apt-cdrom is used to add a new CDROM to APTs list of available sources
[11:39] <Wamphyri> biouser_: yes with the cmos clr switch
[11:40] <biouser_> mrcreativity: and biz/server doesn't want the unstability of bleeding edge
[11:40] <baba_andrea> MikeC2: I try to find out the cd and the hardware test, thanks
[11:40] <debian> hiya
[11:40] <tigger924> it worked, thanks a lot guys
[11:40] <Garnol> Is there a good online tutorial for Screenresolutions... ive got a problem with my ATI card  and heard from a page.........
[11:40] <Garnol> THX
[11:40] <variant> Wamphyri: i have, removing the battery works every time
[11:40] <mrcreativity> i c
[11:40] <MikeC2> baba_andrea : doing a 'check up' when things go screwy is always good.
[11:40] <biouser_> cmos clr switch.... hmmmm
[11:40] <Wamphyri> variant: interesting your lucky i guess :)
[11:40] <sipior> Wamphyri: i'm also lucky then
[11:41] <Wamphyri> lol
[11:41] <sipior> i don't think luck was involved, however
[11:41] <biouser_> repeatable = not luck?
[11:41] <MikeC2> Main parts to test are RAM/HDD if both of those pass then you either have a dead mobo/other component (rare) or a driver/mod issue(more common)
[11:41] <zcat[1] > depends on the machine. Some reset instantly. Some have a cap and can keep the settings for a few hours
[11:41] <Garnol> Is there a good online tutorial for Screenresolutions... ive got a problem with my ATI card  and heard from a page.........
[11:41] <mrcreativity> have the free cds started shipping yet?
[11:41] <tigger924> is anyone here in the mood to tell me know how to automatically load the ndis drivers, when the corresponding pccard is inserted?
[11:41] <sipior> biouser_: that's my general impression :)
[11:41] <tigger924> now
[11:41] <tigger924> not know
[11:41] <tigger924> and that thing with "is anyone in the mood" sounded kinda gay
[11:41] <Wamphyri> biouser_: could be could not be i always use the cmos clr switch and i also stay away from lapwarmers
[11:41] <biouser_> sipior : basic tenet of statistical science
[11:41] <Garnol> Is there a good online tutorial for Screenresolutions... ive got a problem with my ATI card  and heard from a page.........
[11:42] <Wamphyri> so there may be a difference between laptops and desktops?
[11:42] <biouser_> Wamphyri ; lapwarmers?
[11:42] <zcat[1] > groinburners
[11:42] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : another good work for a laptop lol
[11:42] <MikeC2> zcat[1]  : Pentium 4 anyone?
[11:42] <Wamphyri> word*
[11:42] <Garnol> i feel  ignored XD
[11:42] <biouser_> Wamphyri ; this is a pre-mobile p4
[11:42] <biouser_> a real groin burner indeed
[11:43] <MikeC2> Garnol : Look up ATI, X server tutorials
[11:43] <Wamphyri> biouser_: ok? my first and only laptop was a amd 300
[11:43] <MikeC2> to learn to edit your xorg.conf
[11:43] <planarian> variant: thank you! =)
[11:43] <Garnol> i dont know any help page .. i will google .. but maybe you can just post a link
[11:43] <stefg> !ati | Garnol
[11:43] <ubotu> Garnol: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:44] <biouser_> I have been freezing a lot on this laptop since upgrading to feisty
[11:44] <Wamphyri> biouser_: middle of winter strap the thing to you in a backpack and your back swets while you wear a t-shirt
[11:44] <MikeC2> I'd be googling too ;p
[11:44] <mrcreativity> can i have kubuntu and ubuntu on one system
[11:44] <Wamphyri> you/your*
[11:44] <biouser_> mrcreativity: in many ways
[11:44] <mrcreativity> id like to have gnome and kde...is there anyway to do that?
[11:44] <ypSami> Hey all, is it possible to expand my ntfs partition, and compress my ext3 partition using something like gparted?
[11:44] <biouser_> mrcreativity: you could have dozens of copies of each
[11:44] <stefg> mrcreativity: no problem... yust install kde
[11:45] <sipior> ypSami: yep
[11:45] <MikeC2> mrcreativity : I tend just to install the one I perfer then use gnome or kde apps ;p
[11:45] <mrcreativity> and that wont mess up my boot loader?
[11:45] <Brade1> i just installed pidgin 2.0.0 beta7
[11:45] <Brade1> i dont like much
[11:45] <MikeC2> mrcreativity : if anything it would only add to it
[11:45] <biouser_> mrcreativity: i also do what mikec2 said
[11:45] <Brade1> gaim 2.0.0 beta6 is better
[11:45] <mrcreativity> but the only difference is the gui right?
[11:45] <stefg> mrcreativity: all *buntus use the same base... the desktop envirnment is just an app on top of that
[11:45] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:45] <tehlostpatrol> hey my windows don't have borders anymore
[11:45] <zcat[1] > hmmm.. I'm still trying to figure out if the gnome cd burner is using tao or dao ...
[11:45] <MikeC2> gnome apps dont have to be run in only gnome
[11:45] <Brade1> gtg
[11:45] <tehlostpatrol> hey my windows don't have borders anymore. how do i get that back?
[11:46] <Brade1> cya
[11:46] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : what about mao?
[11:46] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: what will that do?
[11:46] <Brade1> later
[11:46] <zcat[1] > wu ?
[11:46] <debian> ?
[11:46] <Wamphyri> we?
[11:46] <biouser_> Wamphyri lol
[11:46] <stefg> tehlostpatrol: disbale desktop-effects
[11:46] <Stormx2> tehlostpatrol: System > Preferences > Themes. Hit "customize" or something similar.
[11:46] <MikeC2> wa ?
[11:46] <Stormx2> wii?
[11:46] <MikeC2> WEEEEEEE
[11:46] <Warbo> tehlostpatrol: Press Alt-F2 and type "metacity --replace"
[11:46] <biouser_> thanks for the advice about the cmos battery
[11:46] <zcat[1] > Sorry.. Hu
[11:46] <biouser_> all
[11:46] <Warbo> Yay
[11:46] <Wamphyri> lol
[11:46] <fl64> hello
[11:46] <mrcreativity> what i was wondering is if it were possible to have one installation and the option to choose between the 2
[11:47] <Warbo> My system is going fast now I've killed hald. Thanks
[11:47] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: It will install kubuntu as an option. You can pick whether to load kde or gnome from the login screen.
[11:47] <stefg> mrcreativity: read above... no prob
[11:47] <Garnol> where can i find the major changes from ubuntu 6.06 to 6.10
[11:47] <Garnol> ?
[11:47] <mrcreativity> but its 400mb
[11:47] <debian> hi all kubuntu 7.04 is stable on laptop?
[11:47] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: yep.
[11:47] <Wamphyri> i have eyes
[11:47] <kayef> what is the latest version of xchat for ubuntu?I'm using xchat-gnome 0.16
[11:47] <Wamphyri> why are there eyes
[11:47] <mrcreativity> actually, its 161...
[11:47] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: What do you expect? KDE is a desktop envirnoment...
[11:47] <tehlostpatrol> didn't work
[11:47] <MikeC2> i have feet o.o omgs
[11:47] <freelan> hello, can i upgrade 6.10 from CD source 7.04 ?
[11:47] <tehlostpatrol> any other ideas?
[11:47] <Wamphyri> PLEASE! tell how to get rid of these freaking eyes on my desktop!!!
[11:47] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: 161 packaged, probably
[11:47] <mrcreativity> its 400 after unpacking.
[11:48] <biouser_> debian.. depends. probably not....... xubuntu 7.04 on my toshiba..........no
[11:48] <tehlostpatrol> i must have hit a shortcut or something
[11:48] <stefg> !upgrade | freelan
[11:48] <debian> xubuntu?
[11:48] <tehlostpatrol> a key combo
[11:48] <Wamphyri> kidding btw
[11:48] <ubotu> freelan: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:48] <Stormx2> Wamphyri: xeyes?
[11:48] <Flonares> Wamphyri, xeyes?
[11:48] <Wamphyri> LOL
[11:48] <mrcreativity> is there a way i can use the kubuntu cd i have instead of downloading?
[11:48] <MikeC2> xD
[11:48] <Stormx2> JINX
[11:48] <debian> where can i get xubuntu?
[11:48] <Stormx2> !xubuntu | debian
[11:48] <ubotu> debian: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[11:48] <zcat[1] > Wamphyri: alt-F2 xkill  then click on the eyes with the kill cursor..
[11:48] <biouser_> debian xubuntu.org... I like it best unless you have a super-machine
[11:48] <debian> i c thanx stormx
[11:48] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : lol i was kidding :p
[11:49] <debian> thanx biouser
[11:49] <freelan> nope
[11:49] <freelan> too bad :(
[11:49] <Flonares> LOL r0m
[11:49] <fl64> my scanner benq 5250c not work =(
[11:49] <debian> im usin ubuntu 6.10 edge now....
[11:49] <Wamphyri> i don't even have it installed, i just seen it in synaptic and felt like being weird lol
[11:49] <freelan> in version 6.10 this feature was
[11:49] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: Possibly. If you put it in, it should auto-add it as a repo. You may still need to download some packages. Try it.
[11:49] <mrcreativity> is there a way i can install the kde-desktop from ubuntu using the cd and not downloading?
[11:49] <biouser_> debian: I like gnome ubuntu best with a sweet Opteron and a couple of gigs or something.... xubuntu is the king of lighweights
[11:49] <zcat[1] > Wamphyri: yeah.. I thought the eyes that watched everything you do were a feature of Vista :)
[11:49] <debian> have to change with xbuntu
[11:49] <mrcreativity> let me
[11:49] <ypSami> ok, I have gparted open, but all of the partitions are locked?
[11:49] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : shhh i still say Mr. Gates is watching me!!
[11:50] <Stormx2> ypSami: Are you running gparted as root or not?
[11:50] <stefg> !doesn'twork | fl64
[11:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about doesn'twork - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:50] <ypSami> ahh
[11:50] <biouser_> ypSami may have to open as root
[11:50] <sipior> ypSami: you can't edit partitions on a mounted disk
[11:50] <stefg> !doesn't work | fl64
[11:50] <ubotu> fl64: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[11:50] <ypSami> yes
[11:50] <sipior> ypSami: well, shouldn't anyway
[11:50] <ypSami> it's being run as root
[11:50] <zcat[1] > Wamphyri: seen the movie 'antitrust' ?
[11:50] <biouser_> ypsami read sipior actually
[11:50] <kayef> what is the latest version of xchat for ubuntu?I'm using xchat-gnome 0.16
[11:50] <erisco> I am trying to mount VCD images, how can I do this?
[11:50] <stefg> !info xchat
[11:50] <bullgard4> Application programs like Evolution and Pan show me the date of a file in the format 'day-of-the-week' if the timestamp is < 1 week old. Where can I change it to the usual format 'DD-MM-YY'?
[11:50] <alcane> will 'chmod 777 -fR /blah/blah" change all permissions in the file and folders to open access to all?
[11:50] <ubotu> xchat: IRC client for X similar to AmIRC. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.8.0-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 295 kB, installed size 796 kB
[11:51] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : yeah that gave me nightmares till i was able to get microsoft of my puter
[11:51] <ypSami> when I try and unmount the partitions, it says"count not unmount"
[11:51] <biouser_> xchat 2.8 is what im using
[11:51] <Stormx2> kayef: I'm on xchat 2.8.0
[11:51] <debian> MSN is possible with XChat?
[11:51] <kayef> how come mine is only 0.16?
[11:51] <crdlb> debian: no
[11:51] <Stormx2> kayef: Did you compile from source / install from a .deb?
[11:51] <kayef> i installed using the add/remove prog
[11:51] <zcat[1] > Wamphyri: did you get the cameras removed from your garage tho?
[11:51] <debian> then aMSN... [possible?
[11:51] <crdlb> debian: but you can use gaim for IRC and MSN
[11:51] <Stormx2> !info xchat-gnome
[11:51] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: the synaptic package manager has started. any suggestions as to what i should do now?
[11:51] <ubotu> xchat-gnome: a new frontend to the popular X-Chat IRC client. In component main, is optional. Version 1:0.16-0ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 305 kB, installed size 784 kB
[11:51] <stefg> !info xchat-gnome
[11:51] <sipior> ypSami: are you using those partitions at this moment? like your home directory, &cet?
[11:51] <bogdanu> s
[11:51] <crdlb> debian: amsn works too
[11:51] <debian> installed aMSN but had bugs
[11:52] <Wamphyri> debian: theres derivatives
[11:52] <crdlb> debian: try gaim
[11:52] <sipior> ypSami: typically this is done by rebooting under an live install cd or the like
[11:52] <Stormx2> kayef: 0.16 is the latest xchat-gnome version. 2.8.0 is the latest xchat version
[11:52] <ypSami> ah
[11:52] <ypSami> damn
[11:52] <biouser_> gaim is super sweet
[11:52] <Wamphyri> goto freashmeat.net and search for msn
[11:52] <debian> gaim?
[11:52] <Wamphyri> you'll get a nice list
[11:52] <Stormx2> It's call pidgin, people...
[11:52] <biouser_> sudo apt-get install gaim
[11:52] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : havn't found those yet
[11:52] <kayef> Stormx2: so which is better?
[11:52] <debian> how can i get into MSN network on gaim?
[11:52] <sipior> ypSami: but if you have a second disk, you can use that
[11:52] <Stormx2> kayef: For?
[11:52] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : just in the kids rooms and the bathroom all the rest he hid!!
[11:52] <biouser_> debian: super sweet gui
[11:52] <Wamphyri> li'l to well
[11:52] <dimebar> debian: create an account and choose 'MSN'
[11:52] <Stormx2> kayef: You mean xchat vs xchat-gnome?
[11:52] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: the synaptic package manager has started. any suggestions as to what i should do now?
[11:53] <zcat[1] > don't use freshmeat; just search the add/remove programs list; there's plenty of IM stuff there..
[11:53] <debian> i c
[11:53] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : lol
[11:53] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: Run a search for kubuntu-desktop
[11:53] <debian> thanx biouser and dimebar...
[11:53] <debian> ill try
[11:53] <ypSami> sipior: nope. uhg.
[11:53] <kayef> Stormx2: hhhmmmm.......not sure but the one i'm using is quite good already, just curious if there is a better one out there
[11:53] <crdlb> kayef: xchat is more powerful, xchat-gnome has a better interface (imho)
[11:53] <biouser_> debian: no problemo.. haven't used it much but it looks really easy and nice
[11:53] <Stormx2> I hate the xchat-gnome interface xD
[11:54] <crdlb> Stormx2: yeah I used to, until I actually started using it :)
[11:54] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: its downloading something
[11:54] <kayef> crdlb: means xchat-gnome is easier to use?
[11:54] <Wamphyri> zcat[1] : thats under the K -> Control Panel -> i'm lost what are these thing in here
[11:54] <crdlb> kayef: yeah
[11:54] <biouser_> I have had 0 problems/complaints with x-chat in xfce
[11:54] <erisco> how do you mount an iso image? I am not sure how to get the mount command to work
[11:54] <kayef> crdlb: ok.....thanks
[11:54] <Wamphyri> only complaint i have about the gnome iface right now is i can't see the user list ><
[11:55] <zcat[1] > Wamphyri: kde I have no idea. I used to like kde but in ubuntu gnome is better integrated. kubuntu's kinda a second cousin..
[11:55] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: Give me a minute, ima see how you enable the disk repo
[11:55] <crdlb> !loopback | erisco
[11:55] <ubotu> erisco: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[11:55] <biouser_> probably going to crash in a second
[11:55] <fl64> I am sorry for my bad English, but problem in the following. At start xsane there is a mistake: Unable to open the device ' snapscan:libusb:005:004 ': incorrect argument
[11:55] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: Edit > Add CD-ROM
[11:55] <erisco> crdlb, okay, now how would I mount a VCD?
[11:56] <crdlb> erisco: a vcd is just a data cd
[11:56] <zcat[1] > erisco: same way. a vcd is just a CD
[11:56] <crdlb> erisco: a vcd or a vcd image?
[11:56] <zcat[1] > to play a VCD I'd probably use vlc..
[11:56] <Wamphyri> you can also convert a vcd to mpeg
[11:56] <Wamphyri> forget the name of the program tho :(
[11:57] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: still asking for download
[11:57] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: it may say "download" and mean getting it from a cd
[11:57] <zcat[1] > Wamphyri: done DVD's to vcd already ... dvdrip and DeVeDe does it..
[11:57] <Stormx2> Start it up, see what happens.
[11:57] <erisco> crdlb, zcat[1] , thanks!
[11:57] <mrcreativity> let me try
[11:57] <freelan> hello, i want to install ubuntu 7.04 from CD , how to skip device detecting when starting ?
[11:57] <zcat[1] > I guess that does both ways. dvdrip will rip either. DeVeDe will generate images for either too..
[11:58] <Wamphyri> ok brb
[11:58] <freelan> becouse ubuntu 7.04 exp problem when the device is missing
[11:58] <freelan> =[
[11:58] <debian> gaim is a good messenger
[11:58] <freelan> like SoundCard
[11:58] <Wamphyri> hmm
[11:59] <zcat[1] > I need a dvd burner.. I promised I'd buy myself one when Valenti died. He's dead now..
[11:59] <freelan> will i experience the same problem with alternate ubuntu cd install 7.04 ???
[11:59] <freelan> i want to know
[11:59] <mrcreativity> alright, i disabled all the other repositories
[11:59] <mrcreativity> and selected only the cd
[11:59] <Stormx2> zcat[1] : me too. I need a dvd drive. my friend burnt me the entire of Full metal alchemist and I haven't been able to watch it.
[11:59] <jedi__> hello, when i start ubuntu, it logs in ok but when it's loading nautilus, it suddenly brings me back to the login screen - any ideas where i could look?

[12:01] <Hamm_sand> I have a problem....
[12:01] <bullgard4> Application programs like Evolution and Pan show me the date of a file in the format 'day-of-the-week' if the timestamp is < 1 week old. Where can I change it to the usual format 'DD-MM-YY'? Is this a Gnome feature?
[12:01] <foug> does anyone have a Logitech MX 610?
[12:01] <freelan> what download manager i can use for ubuntu

[12:03] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: is there a way i can direct the synaptic package manager to search only on the cd and not online repositories
[12:03] <biouser_> ubotu, ACPI
[12:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acpi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:03] <m0ns00n> stefg: I'm running amarok, and then dosbox can't open alsa for output

[12:04] <warbisshop>  Hi i got a small problem. I installed ubuntu feisty with an ati X700 mobility card. i got it too work but when i try to play a movie. i get a black screen on my movie player
[12:04] <debian> cya
[12:04] <zcat[1] > dammit, I need a factoid already!
[12:04] <warbisshop> anyone got a clue what might be wrong ?
[12:04] <biouser_> later, debian
[12:04] <mrcreativity> the repos are only for third part software, and not official ones, right?
[12:04] <stefg> simmerz: yes... you'll find it less troublesome to backup, make fresh install of feisty and restor your settingse
[12:04] <simmerz> stefg: not got that option unfortunately.
[12:05] <simmerz> its on a uml host
[12:05] <biouser_> ubotu, feisty crashes a lot on my toshiba laptop
[12:05] <freelan> please suggest me an downloader for X
[12:05] <crdlb> mrcreativity: no all ubuntu software is available in the ubuntu repos
[12:05] <`davo> how do I set a folder as a FTP location?
[12:05] <stefg> simmerz: upgrading over 4 versions will lead to ~ 500-600MB of bloat minimum
[12:05] <crdlb> but you can add other repos too
[12:06] <mrcreativity> no i mean, h and ow do i select a cd as a repo only, and disable online repos
[12:06] <zcat[1] > freelan: firefox works for me. You might like the dta plugin as a download manager, it does all the multistream suspend/resume crap..
[12:06] <simmerz> stefg: from a base install?

[12:06] <ruben> Does anybody have some tips to get beryl working on an ATI X700?
[12:06] <Sergo> without google in linux i can't nothing do
[12:06] <mrcreativity> crdlb: i want to install kubuntu-desktop from the the kubuntu cd
[12:06] <Sergo> =] 
[12:07] <ruben> I got beryl to work now, but whenever i play a movie and beryl is on it fails :/
[12:07] <stefg> simmerz: depends on what you consider  base install.. i had a system which i put from dapper to edgy to feisty... Later i reinstalled, and had a 400 MB smaller system
[12:07] <Sergo> lol
[12:07] <Sergo> i forget about wgt
[12:07] <Sergo> wget
[12:07] <Sergo> :))
[12:07] <Sergo> the best downloader
[12:07] <biouser_> ubotu, tell me how to make feisty stable on my toshiba laptop please
[12:07] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: The "repos" are usually official. main, restricted, universe and multiverse. You may have added others.
[12:07] <simmerz> stefg: base install - ie. nothing but the basic ubuntu install of breezy

[12:08] <zcat[1] > I use wget -c a lot for finishing off aborted downloads :)
[12:08] <mrcreativity> can i temporarily disable them?
[12:08] <stefg> simmerz: so base-install == server-install ?
[12:08] <stefg> simmerz: or base-install == desktop-install ?
[12:08] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: Do it under synaptic methinks
[12:08] <simmerz> stefg: server-install
[12:08] <simmerz> well its not because breezy didn't have those options
[12:08] <m0ns00n> stefg: It looks like I need to use an alsa config file
[12:08] <stefg> simmerz: that will lessen the problem considerably
[12:08] <mrcreativity> im looking
[12:08] <m0ns00n> stefg: To support software mixing?
[12:08] <m0ns00n> stefg: it isn't default in ubuntu?
[12:09] <warbisshop> guess no-one knows :(
[12:09] <rambo3> saerver install =  ubuntu-base + ubuntu-standard
[12:09] <biouser_> knows what?
[12:09] <m0ns00n> stefg: multiplexing
[12:09] <kayef> VLC & Mplayer does not output sound to my usb soundcard, it only outputs to the built-in one in my laptop
[12:09] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: It should just be sufficient to insert the cd, add it as a repo (as I explained before) and install kubuntu-desktop
[12:09] <kayef> how do i set it to play to the usb card?
[12:10] <biouser_> kayef, did you install the usb from the ALSA tarball sources?
[12:10] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: doesnt seem to work
[12:10] <warbisshop> i instaled beryl on feisty but whenever i run a movie i get a black screen in the player, i use an ati X700
[12:10] <compengi> !gusty
[12:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gusty - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:10] <mrcreativity> it still downloads
[12:10] <biouser_> kayef, if you are lucky you can select the usb as default in the dropdown
[12:10] <mrcreativity> i know it should, but i may be doing something wrong
[12:10] <rambo3>  cat /dev/urandom >/dev/sda ?
[12:10] <simmerz> stefg: getting segfaults during dist-upgrade though

[12:10] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule Support in #ubuntu+1
[12:11] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: Which version of the kubuntu cd do you have, and what is your current ubuntu version?
[12:11] <kayef> biouser_: i did not install any drivers....all plug and play but i did set the default audio device in my sound options to usb audio
[12:11] <mrcreativity> 7.04 both
[12:11] <stefg> simmerz: yeah... as i said... you'll find it less troublesome to reinstall. The upgrade procedures tend to be not that well tested
[12:11] <kayef> biouser_: only Media player plays through the usb audio device
[12:11] <ypSami> What should I do if my wireless connection is being detected as a wired connection?
[12:12] <biouser_> kayef, it works for everything except VLC and another
[12:12] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: Settings > Repositories. under the ubuntu tab, uncheck all the boxes. Then under third party, uncheck everything there. Then try
[12:12] <Wamphyri_> weird
[12:12] <voltagex> is there a howto on remastering Ubuntu CDs? or can I get help with Reconstructor here?
[12:12] <Wamphyri_> ok thats funky on the eyes lol
[12:12] <_Neil> hey guys, im trying to do this:
[12:12] <stefg> simmerz: and if you just interrupted an attempt to go from breezy to edgy your system is probably broken already
[12:12] <_Neil> https://translations.launchpad.net/~neil-explodingpanda/+editpgpkeys
[12:12] <_Neil> but it says i cant send my gpg key as no key server is set, how do i do one?
[12:12] <Stormx2> voltagex: remastering? o.O
[12:12] <kayef> biouser_: except for VLC and Mplayer so far....
[12:13] <voltagex> Stormx2: I want to make a custom LiveCD with MythTV Frontend on it
[12:13] <Stormx2> kayef: VLC and mplayer don't use alsa afaik
[12:13] <m0ns00n> stefg: Looks like dmix isn't enabled by default in ubuntu?
[12:13] <_Neil> I've done step one and made myself a key, how do i specifiy a keyserver to upload it to>?
[12:13] <simmerz> stefg: I didn't. I was going from breezy to dapper and it decided to fail on a whole load of packages
[12:13] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: let me try
[12:13] <Stormx2> m0ns00n: it is enabled by default.
[12:13] <kayef> Stormx2: so how?
[12:13] <simmerz> maybe I need to first dist-upgrade to latest breezy? or not necessary?
[12:13] <kayef> Stormx2: if i leave it to default device....it will play thru the laptop soundcard
[12:13] <stefg> simmerz: hmmm... i see. is it really worth the effort to investigate that?
[12:14] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: But it doesn't seem to work
[12:14] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: nothing in search
[12:14] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: I can't have more than one sound playing at the same time
[12:14] <kayef> Stormx2: if i set it to alsa....no sound at all
[12:14] <Wamphyri_> zcat[1] : still there?
[12:14] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: So it doesn't work
[12:14] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: If I have amarok playing or something else, that's the only thing that's gonna play
[12:15] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: Flash player sound, games, whatever doesn't work then
[12:15] <simmerz> looks like a power cycle (couldn't shut down as everything was segfaulting) has got a lot of it going again.
[12:15] <stefg> simmerz: of course you always need to dist-upgrade to the latest patchlevel in each version
[12:15] <mojojojo_> Can I mount daa files? (it's a format of DVD images)
[12:15] <simmerz> right. I'm at dapper. now edgy
[12:16] <biouser_> kayef, you may want to adapt some of the instructions here... it could take some work..... be careful...
[12:16] <biouser_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EchoMia
[12:16] <Stormx2> m0ns00n: Some apps aren't dmix enabled, so may be blocking the soundcard
[12:16] <voltagex> so, no one's ever created a custom Ubuntu CD?
[12:16] <biouser_> kayef, not sure how much that will help
[12:16] <kameron> just upgraded to feisty.. X now won't start. it's complaining about Nvidia for some reason. i'm guessing this is a common problem?
[12:16] <kayef> biouser_: alright.....thanks
[12:16] <Stormx2> m0ns00n: run this: lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*
[12:17] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: How can they do that if they don't run as root?
[12:17] <biouser_> kayef, everytime I;ve set-up USB-audio for someone, its taken hours
[12:17] <stefg> kameron: you used the nvidia-installer ?
[12:17] <kameron> stefg: no, what do you mean?
[12:17] <Stormx2> m0ns00n: Do you see any lines with /dev/dsp in em?
[12:17] <biouser_> kayef, except for once it was plug and play with drop-down selection...
[12:17] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: amarokapp 13697 m0ns00n   24w   CHR   14,3      13657 /dev/dsp
[12:17] <Moi123> hi
[12:17] <Wamphyri_> holy crap
[12:18] <Wamphyri_> this cube effect is making me sea sick
[12:18] <Stormx2> m0ns00n: Therefore, amarok is blocking the soundcard.
[12:18] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: Hmm, k
[12:18] <Moi123> does someone have a tutorial; of install ngircd+anope ?
[12:18] <biouser_> how do I get beryl with the cube plug?
[12:18] <voraistos> hey when one has a windows license, he has the right to use windows codecs on linux, right ? I mean dell would give me 10 pounds refund for windows, so fuck, im thinking about keepin it.
[12:18] <stefg> kameron: the generic install that nvidia provides... but never mind, do : sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic nvidia-glx && sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[12:19] <Stormx2> m0ns00n: Under system > preferences > sound, set everything to alsa
[12:19] <sipior> voraistos: actually, i think the codecs are free for use anyway
[12:19] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: Yes I have
[12:19] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: But amarok was using oss, but I thought this was a wrapper
[12:19] <Stormx2> Who was the person who having problems with vlc and mplayer?
[12:19] <voraistos> no one knows ?
[12:19] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: when running the sound in amarok through alsa it's thrashed (lots of clipping noise)
[12:19] <Stormx2> m0ns00n: Hmm.. it can be. The whole soundsystem thing is complex
[12:20] <warbisshop> i got a problem with all players when i activate beryl on my ati X700
[12:20] <sipior> voraistos: or to be more accurate, the
[12:20] <stefg> !beryl | warbisshop
[12:20] <ubotu> warbisshop: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:20] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: Now it sound sgood =)
[12:20] <m0ns00n> Stormx2: Had to restart amarok
[12:21] <sipior> voraistos: or to be more accurate, the codecs are independent of the windows licence
[12:21] <voraistos> sipior: but but to use the codecs, like wma and such, i might need this license
[12:21] <sipior> voraistos: no
[12:21] <kameron> stefg: okay i did that. it complaied about an md5 sum. so i typed the suggested command..
[12:22] <kameron> stefg: still nothing

[12:22] <lipstick_> anyone know something about Second Life?
[12:22] <lipstick_> are they meaning there is a alpha client(as in arch) or alpha as in beta(first) ?
[12:22] <voraistos> sipior: i need a license for wma thats for sure, its the same with dvdcss, thats not a problem of software license, its a problem of intellectual fucking property
[12:22] <warbisshop> has anyone got any experience with X700 ati cards ?
[12:23] <Hamm_sand> I just wanted to say thank you to whoever gave me the    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto  link
[12:23] <Hamm_sand> that helped and i fixed it  (hooray for zoidberg)
[12:23] <sipior> voraistos: then looking for legal advice on the ubuntu irc channel is not the smartest approach
[12:23] <lipstick_> anyone...
[12:23] <voraistos> sipior: i dont care, i used to have no licence at all
[12:23] <Hamm_sand> however when i click on my linux partition  it says:   Error 17:  Cannot mount selected partition
[12:23] <Hamm_sand> any ideas??
[12:24] <voraistos> sipior: its just i thought instead of burning the sticker to hell, i might need it in case the cops come or something.
[12:24] <sipior> voraistos: i think you can safely ignore that possibility
[12:24] <kameron> stefg: nothing
[12:25] <voraistos> sipior: i dont even have illegal music movies and stuff on my PC :P
[12:25] <stefg> kameron: what does the error say?
[12:25] <Stormx2> voraistos: whaaaa?!
[12:25] <ypSami> this might be a dumb question, but I'm out of CDs, is there any way to run the iso after restart?
[12:25] <Stormx2> ypSami: boot from cd without the cd?
[12:25] <ypSami> yep
[12:25] <Stormx2> Hmm.
[12:26] <Stormx2> It might be possible to do some kinda boot disklette / hdd combo
[12:26] <Stormx2> But I don't know

[12:27] <stefg> kameron: what nvidia card do you have?
[12:27] <voraistos> Stormx2: well, i usually buy my music on Cds, and its usually old stuff so its not expensive, dvds i rent them and usually its crap so the only movies i own are from wong kar wai or whatever hes called, and the only pirated software i had was for windows, and i dont have windows, and am a proud linux user for many years

[12:29] <kameron> crdlb: yes, from edgy to feisty
[12:29] <crdlb> on the broken box
[12:29] <Stormx2> Wamphyri: in what way?
[12:29] <Shin_Gouki> hello i just installed wine, and i added a configuration for my application , but how do i "run" now my application?
[12:29] <kameron> stefg: nvidia 6600gt
[12:29] <Wamphyri> Stormx2: http://www.silkroadonline.net
[12:29] <Wamphyri> that way
[12:29] <Stormx2> Shin_Gouki: cd to the directory of the .exe. Then "wine filename.exe" without the quotes.
[12:29] <Wamphyri> and no it wasn't an advertisment :)
[12:29] <kameron> crdlb: 2.6.17-11-generic
[12:30] <crdlb> kameron: you're using an edgy kernel
[12:30] <voraistos> Stormx2: i usually buy a CD because i know its good in advance: Pink floyd, jimi hendrix, dire straits, and all their friends. Just buy music that was approved by older generations. They had good taste, nowadays its commercial crap, with a windows logo on it.
[12:30] <crdlb> kameron: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-generic
[12:30] <stefg> kameron: ok,... then an update to nvidia-glx-new should help... BTW you did not reboot, or mistaknely reboot the old kernel
[12:30] <Stormx2> Wamphyri: you mean sending a false user-agent?
[12:30] <kameron> crdlb: ah i see. i should just reboot then..
[12:30] <crdlb> then make sure you boot the 2.6.20 kernel
[12:30] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: i know it should be really simple, but its not working
[12:30] <Stormx2> voraistos: You obviously haven't heard of indie :)
[12:30] <Hamm_sand> GRAWR
[12:30] <Hamm_sand> now i'm formatting and reinstalling /cry
[12:30] <Wamphyri> Stormx2: yeah i guess, if that will bypass the Windows Operation System crap
[12:30] <stefg> kameron: reboot and make sure that kernel 2.6.20-generic gets booted
[12:31] <tag2> morning
[12:31] <kameron> stefg: i was on my desktop, just finished the install, restarted X to see the new affect. but i never thought about the kernel.
[12:31] <kameron> yeah i guess ill reboot.
[12:31] <kameron> my uptime is killer though.
[12:31] <stefg> kameron: now you see :-)
[12:31] <voraistos> Stormx2: i heard of gwen stefani, i almost killed myself that day.
[12:31] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: What error are you receiving?
[12:31] <tag2> i'm googling about an error i'm getting running automake and friends with ubuntu 7.04
[12:31] <Stormx2> voraistos: She's awful.
[12:32] <kameron> voraistos, Stormx2 shes so hot though, what the problem is
[12:32] <Sendervictorius> Hamm_sand: yep, that's what I had to do
[12:32] <tag2> it says possibly undefined macro: AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
[12:32] <kameron> stefg: thanks for the help.
[12:32] <mrcreativity> nothing...it just doesnt read the cd while searching, it adds the cd to the third party list, but i cant seem to add it to the main repository list
[12:32] <doppelgaenger> Does anyone know when a future release of ubuntu will cover build in hard disk encryption, e.g. via LUKS ?
[12:32] <VirhYl3> any qemu gurus in here?
[12:32] <tag2> any idea? because goggle says that it's a autoconf version problem...
[12:32] <warbisshop> looking for someone with some experience in X700 ati cards
[12:32] <Stormx2> voraistos: For example, the latest cds I bought were: Major Organ and the Adding Machine - st, Explosions In the Sky - How strance, innocence, and Of Montreal - satanic panic in the attic. All of which i'd never had bought if I hadn't downloaded em first.
[12:32] <kameron> Stormx2: #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:33] <voraistos> kameron: jimi hendrix is not hot. I mean to me hes not :P, but hes damn good, and thats why i still buy his new albums. (yeah, bob marley releases new albums too ???!!!)
[12:33] <Stormx2> Sorry, kameron
[12:33] <VirhYl3> how do i share a windows drive in qemu?

[12:39] <naranha> what should i look for?
[12:39] <Alien_Invader> hi. guys, which torrent clients are u using? besides Azureus, coz im not a java fan.
[12:40] <Stormx2> itguru: Morning, here. I sooo shouldn't be at school :)
[12:40] <naranha> it seems alright
[12:40] <warbisshop> itguru you got any experience in ati cards combined with beryl ?
[12:40] <VirhYl3> I'm using utorrent in wine.
[12:40] <itguru> Stormx2: school?!
[12:40] <VirhYl3> 1.6 IIRC
[12:40] <Stormx2> itguru: No all linux nerds never leave their rooms :D
[12:40] <Stormx2> not*
[12:40] <itguru> warbisshop: Unfortunatly no
[12:40] <VirhYl3> i leave my room when I have a show.  :P
[12:41] <itguru> Stormx2: For real! When I was learning linux, I would leave the house, I ended up automating everything
[12:41] <whaq> VirhYl3: do you have problem when downloading files w/ foreign character sets in the filename?
[12:41] <engla> can we do spontaneous topical channels? can we do #ubuntu-dell-chat
[12:41] <engla> I'd like to do that
[12:41] <leperkhanzdotcom> whaq: In utorrent?
[12:41] <leperkhanzdotcom> haven't run into that, no.
[12:41] <stefg> engla: ask in #ubuntu-ops
[12:41] <whaq> leperkhanzdotcom: yes, utorrent on wine
[12:42] <Alien_Invader> whaq: any other clients?
[12:42] <leperkhanzdotcom> but i'm US, so maybe didn't try...  Works well for me!
[12:42] <whaq> Alien_Invader: works fine w/ rtorrent.
[12:42] <naranha> what else could i try to do?
[12:42] <Alien_Invader> whaq: Does it have upnp support?
[12:42] <jaro> Hi all
[12:42] <leperkhanzdotcom> i highly recommend utorrent+wine.
[12:43] <mrcreativity> Stormx2: i give up. ill download it, its gonna take 2 hrs at least, but ill suck it up. thanks anyway
[12:43] <Alien_Invader> leperkhanzdotcom: utorrent is my fav. under windows.
[12:43] <whaq> Alien_Invader: no, I don't believe it does.
[12:43] <Sergo> hello, anyone know , wget support regetting if internet is not responding
[12:43] <Sergo> ?
[12:43] <leperkhanzdotcom> still my fave under ubuntu XD

[12:44] <animimotus> I have a critical crash when I want install dictionnary with the macro in OOo 2.2 include in Ubuntu Feisty
[12:44] <Alien_Invader> the java stuff just eats too much memory.
[12:45] <naranha> is there anything i can do to resolve my problem: i'm trying to use ubuntu on my system, but everytime it starts (either during the livecdsetup or after a textbased install) the system freezes completly after the displaymanager has been started (can't move mouse or hit ctrl+alt+x). what works is starting in rescue mode and execute startx as root. The Xorg logfile doesnt display an error message.
[12:45] <leo> Cyaoo a tutti!!
[12:45] <Stormx2> mrcreativity: You can do other stuff while it downloads ya know..
[12:46] <mrcreativity> yeah...i guess
[12:46] <luddite> hi all
[12:46] <animimotus> the problem has been explain to #open-office.org we have verify the jre is the good then they send me here : it's a ubuntu problem ? :)
[12:46] <Sergo> jrib, if i close the terminal, will wget continute to download url ?-)
[12:46] <animimotus> a critical crash
[12:46] <jrib> compengi: it lists all the files in file.deb that end up in "directory"

[12:47] <Sergo> jrib this was a joke?
[12:48] <jrib> Sergo: basically you can run "screen" then use your wget command in there.  Then you can close the terminal and it will continue to run in the background.  And if you want you can open aq new terminal and type "screen -r" and you will get your screen back.  No it wasn't a joke, ubotu should have sent you some info in a private message

[12:49] <_Neil> hi guys, i want to be a ubuntero but I can submit my key to a server, maybe because of a proxy.. any ideas?
[12:49] <teethdood> anyone using X-chat? In X-chat I can select the Input Methods to select a different language. How do I do the same in OO.o?
[12:49] <jhaig> Sergo: Sessions run in screen carry on even when you log out, provided you remember to detach the console.  Very useful for things that are going to take a long time but you don't want to leave yourself logged in.
[12:50] <_Neil> any ideas?
[12:50] <stefg> chrisjw: the correct comand is 'man useradd', and it's issued in a term, not in an IRC client :-)
[12:50] <jrib> chrisjw: "adduser" is better btw

[12:51] <nO_okY> lot of people up here xD
[12:51] <zeroday> Subhuman: what can?
[12:51] <squee_> zeroday: just dont run beryl and vnc will work fine
[12:51] <zeroday> squee_: cant
[12:51] <Subhuman> zeroday,  vnc doesnt work well with beryl.
[12:52] <Subhuman> or at all really.
[12:52] <ExIG> Kopete wont connect, any ideas?
[12:52] <squee_> zeroday: what do you meann
[12:52] <zeroday> Subhuman: squee_: can anything work with beryl via remote connection
[12:52] <squee_> zeroday: ssh
[12:52] <nO_okY> zeroday.

[12:52] <squee_> !ssh | zeroday
[12:52] <nO_okY> who wants to run beryl an a remote connection?
[12:52] <ubotu> zeroday: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[12:52] <Subhuman> zeroday, yeah - ssh with X forwarding - and probably nxclient?
[12:53] <Subhuman> XDMCP doesnt seem to work but ican never get it going with ubuntu anwyay
[12:53] <nO_okY> i prefer Xming xD
[12:53] <zeroday> Subhuman: squee_: thanks all
[12:53] <_Neil> ExIG: so there is!
[12:53] <bullgard4> Application programs like Evolution and Pan show me the date of a file in the format 'day-of-the-week' if the timestamp is < 1 week old. Where can I change it to the usual format 'DD-MM-YY'? Is this a Gnome feature?
[12:53] <Subhuman> nO_okY, xming IS ssh with x forwarding :/
[12:53] <ExIG> _Neil: Where you at?
[12:53] <Subhuman> its just an x server for windows.
[12:53] <chrisjw> is there no way to add a user as read only to the entire system?
[12:53] <_Neil> Hild Bede, you are Aidans?
[12:53] <phos-phoros> Does linux support decrypting HD-DVD?

[12:54] <JDahl> I have an Apache2 problem that's possibly Ubuntu related...  Have anyone succesfully used "ProxyPassReverse" with Apache2?
[12:54] <jrib> chrisjw: if you add a new user he won't be able to write to too many places, just HOME and /tmp maybe?

[12:55] <jrib> chrisjw: just add the user to the "admin" group.  Then he can sudo
[12:55] <ExIG> _Neil: yeah, although kopete wont connect for me :S
[12:55] <LGKeiz> I got it working :)
[12:55] <stefg> !permissions | chrisjw

[12:55] <erstazi> JDahl, come to the #apache channel, I am there also
[12:55] <chrisjw> ok, does adduser add him to super users?
[12:55] <jrib> chrisjw: no
[12:55] <_Neil> Proxy support still seems a bit flaky, I have a few things I can only use at home.. xchat for one
[12:55] <chrisjw> if i add him to the admin group and he can use sudo
[12:56] <chrisjw> wouldn't he need to be part of the super user group
[12:56] <ExIG> _Neil: yeah, damn annoying though, strange thing was that it worked when i used to use SuSE
[12:56] <jrib> chrisjw: yes, after you add him to the "admin" group, he can sudo.  "admin" is the super user group basically
[12:56] <chrisjw> oh
[12:56] <chrisjw> ok
[12:56] <casual_moron> hiya, does anyone know if theres a workaround to get ubuntu (or linux in general) to work with an 8800 graphics card yet?
[12:57] <_Neil> casual_moron: Do the nvidia restricted drivers not work?
[12:57] <axbard> hi all I have a quick questien... sence im pretty new to linux system I want to how I mount a Mdf / .Img file ....
[12:57] <casual_moron> not as far as i can see
[12:58] <stefg> axbard: that's not possible without tricks. there's a programm called cdemu, which tries to resemble daemon tools.
[12:58] <void^> axbard: you can mount iso9660 images directly. use mdf2iso to convert mdf images to iso.
[12:58] <ExIG> _Neil: dont suppose you know anything about low latency kernels in linux
[12:58] <casual_moron> on ubuntu i dont get any options for that kind of thing, i also tryed out elive (which has the exsact same problem of just no output atall on the screen) and that had various options to pick different drivers, none of them made any difference

[12:59] <moDumass> hey all, i was just gifted a Bluetooth Class 1 Laser 100m USB dongle, what can i do with one of these?
[12:59] <stefg> casual_moron: the nvidia driver isn't opensource, so it needs a seperate step to enable it
[01:00] <LGKeiz> Okay, I got a question, how would I up the amount of space my  ubuntu partition has after it's installed? because I need more space.
[01:00] <_Neil> Does anyone know how long the ubuntu.com keyserver takes to update? My gpg key is now sent there, but launchpad doesnt see it..
[01:01] <zeroday> who has ati or nvidia issues
[01:02] <stefg> LGKeiz: either use gparted to resize the partition or (better) take the stuff which requires so much space to a separate partition, add that in fstab and symlink it over
[01:02] <tabbot> LGKeiz: format a partition with a linux filesystem and mount it somewhere readwrite (eg: /home/tabbot/Music) OR read up on LVM
[01:03] <ExIG> _Neil: where would I find the restricted drivers for nvid... only been on ubuntu 2 days :)
[01:03] <trippppy> why is my tv card found in dmesg and in the device manager. but zappingTV cant find /dev/video0?

[01:08] <nothlit> voltagex: take out ubuntu-desktop, put 'gnome' in and the apps you want
[01:08] <stapel> How do I set up an automatic samba mount in fstab?
[01:08] <engla> voltagex: go into your package manager and check for large packages. yes, you can sort by size. but also on ubuntuforums.org there are "recipies" for reconstructor to make slim livecds already
[01:09] <hansderagon> There are no default certificates created.  How can I generated them for Apache 2?
[01:09] <voltagex> "recipies" for reconstructor to make slim livecds already << where!!?
[01:09] <engla> voltagex: so in many ways it has already been done and you can just grab the product. and add your own apps :)

[01:11] <Flonares> but i have a problem. may i do a graph?
[01:11] <LGKeiz> I used gparted and the partition is locked
[01:11] <bimberi> hanbush: umount (no n)
[01:11] <LGKeiz> any idea how to unlock it, so I can add more space >_>;

[01:11] <_Neil> Can I decrypt emails using thunderbird?
[01:11] <Flonares> i wish to rob space from the windows partition. that won't create problems?
[01:12] <Flonares> _Neil, do you have the key?
[01:12] <LGKeiz> So what do I do to add more space to the partition I want?
[01:12] <engla> voltagex: sorry I did and I misremembered. but it must have been reconstructor forums

[01:13] <sercik> hi
[01:13] <sercik> could someone tell me how understand apt in which repo download a package?
[01:14] <jrib> sercik: apt-cache policy PACKAGE
[01:14] <bimberi> sercik: apt-cache policy <package>
[01:14] <hanbush> when i try to fsck my hfs drive using fsck.hfsplus, but it says command not found
[01:14] <bimberi> argh, thrashed yet again :)
[01:14] <_Neil> Anyone know if thunderbird can decrypt emails?
[01:14] <stefg> LGKeiz: gparted is a partition magic clone, so you can resize partitions. But the more linuxish way would be to add another partition and put stuff there. By mounting it in the filesystem you don't notice it's a separate partition for normal access
[01:14] <sercik> yesterday i have installed kubuntu to my friends: another man love linux now
[01:15] <strabes> sercik: nice one
[01:15] <pwuertz> when using desktop effects (beryl), playing videos with totem does not work anymore... is there a fix in progress?
[01:15] <LGKeiz> stefg: but..  I don't have another partition to make.

[01:22] <tbuss> is there something like VirtualDub for converting video in llinux
[01:22] <bimberi> sam_kaay: one of those ^^ ?
[01:23] <nope> tbuss - mencoder
[01:23] <nope> maybe
[01:23] <stefg> SasquatchNL: network-manager?
[01:23] <LOQUILLO_> hello everyone
[01:23] <bimberi> ;)
[01:23] <SasquatchNL> I prefer only the interface file, since I use wpa wireless
[01:23] <rambo3> hanbush, then you missed some part of howto
[01:23] <SasquatchNL> and that works now without problems, I just need an ip
[01:24] <AnAnt> Hello, are there cad software for linux that can open AutoCad drawings ?
[01:24] <tbuss> nope: mencoder is used with mplayer correct?
[01:24] <rambo3> hanbush, test with /sbin/fsck.hfs
[01:24] <SasquatchNL> stefg: when I set it manual, it works great, but I also want to be able to connecto using dhcp for another wireless network
[01:24] <bimberi> AnAnt: qcad perhaps
[01:24] <AnAnt> bimberi: tried it
[01:24] <nope> tbuss - it`s part of mplayer package I think, but you use it from the cli
[01:24] <stefg> SasquatchNL: network-manager is meant for that scenario
[01:24] <lowie82ph> how can i use my a4tech pk-835 webcam in feisty?thanks
[01:25] <nope> might be some frontends available though
[01:25] <bimberi> AnAnt: saved as dxf from AutoCAD?
[01:25] <AnAnt> bimberi: it's .dwg
[01:25] <nope> lowie82ph - have you tried doing a dmesg after plugging in the webcam?
[01:25] <A_A> when i plug another HDD into me comp and turn power on i get an error 17 from grub and i cannot continue to load an OS
[01:25] <SasquatchNL> stefg, I know, but I can't seem to get it running properly, I even treid kwlan but that doesn't work either, they won't allow me to use wpa
[01:25] <tbuss> nope: is there anything with a gui
[01:25] <bimberi> AnAnt: not sure then sry :|
[01:25] <AnAnt> bimberi: actually is there any software that opens AutoCAD .dwg files ?
[01:26] <nope> tbuss - I think it exist
[01:26] <stefg> SasquatchNL: so issue sudo dhclient <interface> that will override the manual IP when it finds something
[01:26] <lowie82ph> nope - i just tried that it is detected
[01:26] <nope> do a google search for ubuntu +mencoder +gui
[01:26] <lowie82ph> what shouold i do next?
[01:26] <SasquatchNL> oh, if that works, then I won't look any further
[01:26] <nope> lowie82ph - do a google search for the info dmesg tells you
[01:27] <lowie82ph> ok thanks
[01:27] <tbuss> nope: okay, thanks. just trying to get an idea of how difficult converting video will be in linux
[01:27] <nope> lowie82ph - also see if it mentions loading any modules
[01:27] <nope> it might already be working :)
[01:27] <bimberi> AnAnt: No idea sorry.
[01:27] <jrib> sercik: if the wiki isn't clear, just ask :)
[01:27] <SasquatchNL> stefg, I can't test the dhcp thing now, have to wait untill school starts again, but I will sure test it once I can
[01:27] <nope> tbuss - have you tried Kino? should be a good videoediting etc package
[01:27] <sam_kaay> bimberi: Even after installing the pages I can't compile C++ programs, it says iostream.h doesn't exist.
[01:27] <tbuss> nope: definitely not as easy as DivxConvertor
[01:28] <nope> tbuss - probably not
[01:28] <tbuss> nope: kino is what I used to capture video, would like to compress or convert
[01:28] <nope> check on www.getautomatix.com too, seem to remember an option for video software there
[01:28] <tbuss> nope: thanks for you help
[01:28] <nope> np
[01:29] <tbuss> nope: I've tried avidemux, seems to be the most promising yet
[01:29] <bimberi> sam_kaay: have you installed build-essential ?
[01:29] <sam_kaay> bimberi: Yes
[01:29] <stefg> SasquatchNL: so if you cat use network-manager to automate things for you. you'd define another profile in the network applet.

[01:32] <sercik> now i have a doubt: i want to share with samba the external hd with ntfs filesystem is possible? is dangerous?
[01:32] <sam_kaay> bimberi: When I search for iostream.h, no results are returned.
[01:32] <nope> lowie82ph - might be an unsupported webcam though
[01:33] <stefg> sercik: i had issues with that
[01:33] <SasquatchNL> stefg, I could pastebin my interface and wpa_supplicant.conf if you like
[01:33] <sercik> is better than i format it fat32?
[01:33] <sam_kaay> bimberi: Sorry wrong search
[01:33] <bimberi> sam_kaay: i was just going to ask :)
[01:34] <nope> nice, 7.04 supported my 3ware raid adapter, and my emulex fibrechannel card directly out of the box
[01:34] <nope> sweet
[01:34] <stefg> SasquatchNL: no use... i'm not that familiar with wifi. Why don't you just use the GUI applet to define a second profile, get a systray icon and switch your profile there?
[01:34] <SasquatchNL> stefg, if your first suggestion about dhclient works, I will use that
[01:35] <stefg> SasquatchNL: that's likely to work, if the card is set up properly
[01:35] <SasquatchNL> stefg, it's something I got used to when I use windows, it timesout my dhcp request, switches to static and I have to manually request a new ip. Will see it next week, thanks for your help

[01:51] <bimberi> monio: use your own password
[01:51] <notjames> monio, enter you're normal password
[01:51] <ryeth25> monio:  do u have on all caps or anything?
[01:51] <kaushal> Thanks bimberi
[01:51] <LjL> monio, the fact that "su" works with no problem must mean that there *is* a problem, given that "su" normally shouldn't work in Ubuntu, as the root account is locked
[01:51] <LjL> !sudo > monio    (monio, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:51] <bimberi> kaushal: np :)
[01:51] <user1> join #ubuntu-sa/
[01:52] <monio> thx fixed my bad
[01:52] <bimberi> wow that's a well travelled /
[01:52] <pwuertz> YNWA: you open a shell on a remote system using ssh... also, you can do alot more with ssh, like transferring files and open/forward tcp ports
[01:53] <YNWA> pwuertz: thanks for the link... I learn new things everyday...
[01:53] <pwuertz> YNWA: gnome and kde are able to use ssh for transparent file access on remote systems using an url like "ssh://user@host/path/"
[01:53] <zancik> Hi every body!
[01:53] <notjames> Yes, it's very handy for dragging and dropping etc. files on remote servers
[01:54] <ExIG> _Neil: are you able to connect through any IM client, i tried gaim, kopete and amsn and none worked
[01:54] <zancik> Who knows about limits on German autobahns?

  ths )
[01:56] <ExIG> !offtopic
[01:56] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:56] <bimberi> +ank:
[01:56] <user1> hi all any one having problems with 7.04 sound,
[01:57] <notjames> it's possible that my problem with gnome sessions is related to esd
 I don't have )
[01:57] <jmoro_> user 1 its possible that the setup detectected the wrong card either that or your pcm could be turned way down
[01:57] <zancik> Who knows when is Beryl+compiz new realiz?
[01:58] <user1> it seams that when i boot my laptop on battery the sound works fine and when i boot on AC the sound dos not work
[01:58] <jmoro_> user 1 hmm thats interesting i have not had that problem
[01:58] <moosa> hi i am looking for a linux distro to install and boot from my usb flash drive i dont know any
[01:59] <user1> the card is detectected, and the pcm is turned up
[01:59] <ExIG> moosa: look at DSL (damn small linux)
[01:59] <hdxx> moosa: damn small linux
[01:59] <gordongekko> what do i have to do to have ubuntu detect that i installed an upgraded video card
[01:59] <LjL> moosa, it's possible with Ubuntu, but as exlg just said, yes. DSL is under a non-free license though, if you care about that.
[01:59] <user1> a good website for flash os http://http//www.pendrivelinux.com/
[01:59] <jmoro_> i see well i don't know whats going on and i have to go finish my chores so i can do dorm inspections
[01:59] <LjL> actually no, scrap that - i had Puppy Linux in mind
[01:59] <LjL> DSL is probably a good alternative though
[02:00] <darkk^> Hello, I have some hardly-replayable issue with pptp when connecting to server, from pppd's point of view it's like "server does not send us any GRE", tcpdump at my PC shows GRE packets from server to client (me), if I run strace on pptp, I see that it reads from pppd FD and writes to GRE FD after that, but when it reads packet from GRE FD pptp does NOT send anything to pppd FD, and the worse thing that s
[02:00] <darkk^> ometimes (once after 10-15 tries) it works (pptp relays GRE packets from network to pppd). Can anyone give me advice?
[02:00] <ExIG> yeah puppy or DSL will do the trick, i forgot DSL was non free
[02:00] <stefg> moosa: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[02:00] <moosa> ill look on to DSL
[02:00] <LjL> ExIG: no it's Puppy Linux that's non free, i mixed up the two. I don't know about the licensing status of DSL, but i think it's free
[02:01] <hdxx> gordongekko: i don't know if i understand you right.. but when you install drivers just reboot PC
[02:01] <zancik> Who knows when is Beryl+compiz new realiz?
[02:01] <el1> anybody can help with connecting a nfs share to ubuntu?
[02:01] <LjL> !beryl > zancik    (zancik, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:01] <ExIG> Ljl: Ah right, never used Puppy, have heard about it, and I got DSL on a promo DVD :)
[02:01] <pegger> darkk^: why are you useing pptp
[02:01] <moosa> having linux with me in a small flash drive sure is satisfying
[02:01] <delire_> anyobne else noticed it's not possible to mouse-minimise an existing maximised window with compiz running? here the titlebar itself is disabled when clicked on in a maximised state.
[02:01] <darkk^> pegger, what should I use to connect to pptpd? :)
[02:01] <gordongekko> i didn't do anything to the driver.  it was nvidia before, and it is still the same
[02:01] <user1> loo at this site to get flash distro http://http//www.pendrivelinux.com/
[02:02] <gordongekko> i just put in an upgraded video card
[02:02] <pegger> darkk^: that was not my question?
[02:02] <pegger> !
[02:02] <gordongekko> it shows up correct in nvidia-settings, but xorg.conf has info from the old video card
[02:02] <pegger> darkk^: that was not my question!
 but maybe someone knows ?
[02:02] <LjL> moosa, ExIG: (going offtopic now, but just one last remark), Puppy is probably best suited for CD-Rs, since you can save your entire filesystem state *back* to the CD
[02:02] <LjL> zancik: it's still offtopic
[02:02] <delire_> gordongekko: are you on Feisty?
[02:02] <notjames> Under Ubuntu, what does a normal Gnome session startup do that a failsafe startup doesn't?
[02:02] <gordongekko> yes
[02:02] <ExIG> LjL: fair enough, thanks for the heads up
[02:03] <LjL> zancik: there are different channels for different things. autobahns are a good topic of #ubuntu-offtopic, and beryl's a good topic for #ubuntu-effects
[02:03] <darkk^> pegger, that was the answer. "I use pptp as I have to connect to pptpd"
[02:03] <delire_> gordongekko: then try System->Administration->Retricted Manger and disable and re-enable that driver. it will attempt to write out a new config IIRC.
[02:03] <moosa> by the way i might be working with only 128 migs of ram
 ok im sorry )
[02:03] <gordongekko> a new xorg.conf?
[02:03] <m4steR> how can i configure conky?
[02:03] <m4steR> i have got a configuration file
[02:03] <m4steR> how can i use it?
[02:04] <el1> freenas - nas - ubuntu share. Anybody knows?
[02:04] <pegger> darkk^: not the correct answer might be, I need it to authenicate to my isp, or something like that, I am tryign to figure out if you are using it for a vpn or not
[02:04] <gordongekko> do i need to restart X when i disable and enable
[02:04] <Pici> m4steR: `man conky` should give you the information you seek
[02:04] <delire_> gordongekko: yes
[02:04] <gordongekko> ok
[02:04] <el1> /?
[02:04] <darkk^> pegger, yes, that's used for VPN, right.
[02:04] <el1> /topics
[02:04] <m4steR> Pici: i have just done, but i don't understand
[02:05] <sercik> hey
[02:05] <Pici> m4steR: Let me take a look at mine, hold on.
[02:05] <pegger> darkk^: yes but are you using it fore vpn or authenication to a isp?
[02:05] <sercik> i wante to share an external hd with linux
[02:05] <sercik> there is ntfs partition
[02:06] <Pici> m4steR: `conky -c filename` where filename is your config file.
[02:06] <darkk^> pegger, ghm... don't understand your idea. But anyway, yes, I use it for vpn.
[02:06] <sercik> if i use samba it is possible for linux to write on that disk? is secure?
[02:06] <m4steR> Pici: thx, very affable
[02:06] <andy101> I tried to reformat a USB stick but used /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1 for the new partition. Now Ubuntu trys to access both (despite only 1 partition being shown by fdisk). Any ideas how to completely erase it so that /dev/sda is how it should be?
[02:07] <m4steR> Pici: the file name together the path?
[02:07] <kaushal> Hi
[02:07] <stefg> andy101: the stick needs a new partition table.. use fdisk or cfdisk to generate one... the format /dev/sda1
[02:07] <darkk^> sercik, they say `ntfs-3g` is good enough to write to ntfs partitions
[02:07] <kaushal> when i do a less file.txt
[02:08] <Baktaah> Excuse me, is there a No-ip service to ubuntu (like no-ip.com?)
[02:08] <LGKeiz> So anywas, I sorta lost connection
[02:08] <kaushal> If I type !pwd
[02:08] <kaushal> it executes the shell command
[02:08] <LjL> Baktaah, uhm? i don't think that kind of service can be specific to any given operating system
[02:08] <Pici> m4steR: If you arent running it from where the config file is located, then yes, you need the path.  It wont hurt to add the path otherwise though.
[02:08] <LGKeiz> stefg, the partition for my ubuntu disk is locked, I have duel booted, Windows and Ubuntu ,and I wanna transfer free space from the windows partition to Ubuntu, so what can I do?
[02:08] <kaushal> I wanted to know about %sign
[02:08] <LjL> !enter | kaushal
[02:08] <ubotu> kaushal: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:08] <sercik> ibut is not to set permis right?
[02:08] <Baktaah> LjL: no-ip.com has a client for people with dynamic (always changing IP)
[02:09] <avilella> hi all, is anybody else experiencing a ~10sec idle time when booting up feisty?
[02:09] <aimaz> i get this error message "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." but glx is in my xorg.conf http://rafb.net/p/sFWaXV22.html any ideas would be greatly appreciated
[02:09] <monio> how can i mount an ftp site ?  mount ftp..... /..... doesn't work
[02:09] <LjL> !info no-ip > Baktaah searching repos is always a good idea...
[02:09] <darkk^> sercik, yes, don't think it'll set you all windows permissions, so you should setup umask, uid, gid carefully :)
[02:09] <stefg> LGKeiz: use gparted... but chkdsk and defragment your win partition before, and backups are never a bad idea
[02:09] <LGKeiz> I'm using gparted
[02:09] <stefg> !gparted | LGKeiz
[02:09] <darkk^> Baktaah, afair, no-ip can be used with wget instead of client :)
[02:09] <ubotu> LGKeiz: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[02:09] <LGKeiz> what do I do
[02:09] <gordongekko> nvidia-settings shows the right card, but xorg.conf still shows the old card
[02:09] <LGKeiz> dismount/
[02:09] <sercik> i intend chmod use is possible under ntfs?
[02:09] <avilella> my feisty box will be ~10sec doing nothing at the beginning of the boot up process, I wonder if this is because it is trying to connect to the Internet or sth
[02:10] <Baktaah> LjL: thanks wich one is better?
[02:10] <LGKeiz> Im using it -.-;;;;
[02:10] <gordongekko> do i just hand edit xorg.conf?
[02:10] <LjL> Baktaah: i have no idea.
[02:10] <LGKeiz> Butlike I said the partitions are LOCKED. lol
[02:10] <stefg> LGKeiz: you can't repartition the system you are running on, so you have to do it from a Live CD
[02:10] <LjL> sercik: i don't think so
[02:10] <LjL> LGKeiz: are you root?
[02:10] <sercik> ljl thanks
[02:11] <moosa> for graphics programming under linux what librarys do i use?
[02:11] <LjL> stefg, LGKeiz: well, i guess that would depend on precisely *what* one is trying to do to the partition, but in general (mostly if you touch a mounted partition, i suppose), yeah
[02:11] <gordongekko> delire_, that didn't update xorg.conf
[02:11] <sercik> so i could create a little fat32 partition with linux ext3 driver and then format as ext3 the rest so people that use windows to access that disk could install ext3 driver on windows

[02:12] <PanzerMKZ> what was that
[02:13] <PanzerMKZ> ?
[02:13] <LjL> PanzerMKZ: script kiddies.
[02:13] <Pici> Some sort of botnet attack
[02:13] <LjL> moosa: pick your choice... "graphics programming" what do you mean? GUI programming, or image manipulation?
[02:13] <gordongekko> delire_, some things got updated, but the Device identifier is from the old card
[02:13] <hdxx> kiddies with proxies.. sad:)
[02:14] <LGKeiz> http://img464.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotcq1.png <--
[02:14] <LGKeiz> Thats what Im talking about
[02:14] <LGKeiz> it's locked
[02:14] <LGKeiz> -_-
[02:14] <moosa> mostly game programming on consoles
[02:14] <delire_> gordongekko: oh i see. did you edit the old file by hand?
[02:14] <avilella> my feisty box will be ~10sec doing nothing at the beginning of the boot up process, I wonder if this is because it is trying to connect to the Internet or sth. has anybody found out about this?
[02:14] <gordongekko> no not yet
[02:15] <gordongekko> is that what i need to do
[02:15] <delire_> gordongekko: right, so you've never touched it?
[02:15] <gordongekko> no
[02:15] <LjL> moosa: uh, on consoles? consoles generally use very proprietary CPUs and operating systems (if any)
[02:15] <gordongekko> it's the same xorg.conf from when i installed
[02:15] <delire_> gordongekko: odd. is it an NVIDIA card?
[02:15] <gordongekko> well, except for just disabling/enabling the restricted driver
[02:15] <gordongekko> old card = built in geforce4 mx
[02:15] <gordongekko> new card = geforce 6200
[02:15] <stefg> LGKeiz: a.) as i said you need to do it from CD . b.) there is unallocated space, why not use it?
[02:16] <web-user55> jion #stockcycle
[02:16] <moosa> i only need windowing functions most of my code will be openGL after that
[02:16] <LGKeiz> won't let me when I make the partition
[02:16] <gordongekko> they both use the 96.31 driver
[02:16] <LGKeiz> No write permissions
[02:16] <LGKeiz> only read only :p
[02:16] <web-user55> join #stockcycle
[02:16] <LGKeiz> Im partly new to Ubuntu so I don't know what I would do to make it write/read only
[02:16] <clemyeats> LGKeiz: ntfs ?
[02:16] <LjL> web-user55: try /join
[02:17] <gordongekko> old card was built in to the motherboard, new card is agp
[02:17] <delire_> gordongekko: right, well it ought to throw in the new device identifier. it's silly that this doesn't happen. all i can suggest is a dpkg-rconfigure xserver-xorg..
[02:17] <LGKeiz> thats my windows partition.
[02:17] <stefg> LGKeiz: get the gparted live cd and run that... YOU CANT RESIZE A MOUNTED PARTITION, CAPITO?
[02:17] <gordongekko> that will make me run through a bunch of config settings where i choose what i have, right?
[02:17] <LGKeiz> OKAY STEFG, sheesh I heard you.
[02:17] <Pici> !caps
[02:17] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[02:17] <delire_> gordongekko: if you hand modify that file it won't be upgraded when the xserver itself is updated. this is the concern.
[02:17] <Pici> :)
[02:17] <maxagaz> Does someone know a good sound card to do home video and which works on ubuntu ?
[02:17] <delire_> gordongekko: yep, done in the console.
[02:18] <LGKeiz> Then I shall be back soon! >_<;
[02:18] <moosa> LjL: also i will be working on some low end devices maybe (running linux)
[02:18] <delire_> gordongekko: it's just multiple choice. just choose defaults. once done, disable/reenable the restricted driver again..
[02:18] <gordongekko> if i do something wrong in that command, and x doesn't start, is it easy to go back
[02:18] <moosa> so something like windows native win32 will do
[02:20] <ArtVandalae> Okay this will sound strange, but ./configure doesn't seem to be working for a program that needs to generate a ./config file. I installed build-essential and automake... but still nothing... what other programs might I need when compiling?
[02:20] <delire> gordongekko: it is if you backup your existing config first. then you can just 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf_MYBACKUP /etc/X11/xorg.conf' in the console.
[02:20] <delire> gordongekko: then reboot or just 'startx'
[02:20] <gordongekko> ok, one more question.  do i need to kill X to do this
[02:21] <Pici> gordongekko: not to do the commands, but for them to take effect.
[02:21] <gordongekko> ok
[02:21] <gordongekko> thanks for the help

[02:23] <dealer> i've installed ubuntu feisty, but it's freezing so much.. could be the restricted manager?
[02:23] <pegger>  I am running ubuntu 6.06 apche 2.055 and I am trying to get this application working that relies on perl,  I know that I have perl and mod_perl working because it is desplayed in the directory listing, what am I missing
[02:23] <monteiro> anyone has an hp laptop ? I've an error, that smart says my hardisk 2 is going to fail.
[02:24] <xushi> hi all
[02:24] <ExIG> monterio: on the POST screen?
[02:24] <xushi> i desperatly need help here, it's regarding my job
[02:24] <CVirus> I'm using btdownloadcurses to download a torrent and now it reached 99.9% but as soon as it reaches 100% .. it goes back to 99.8% and repeats ... what could be wrong ?
[02:24] <Enselic__> When I run ps -A, long CMDs are truncated. Anyone know why? iirc this hasn't always been the case
[02:25] <dealer> how can i disable restricted-manager?
[02:25] <Tomcat_> CVirus: Many causes... in the end it comes down to "invalid packets" I guess.
[02:25] <AfterDeath> holy shit that was weird
[02:25] <xushi> i am moving the windows machines here in my company to kubuntu. but i have a huge problem of which no one in #apache, #kubuntu, #gentoo can or are willing to help with
[02:25] <Pici> !ohmy > AfterDeath
[02:25] <elkbuntu> AfterDeath, language please
[02:25] <stefg> CVirus: the last part fails integrity check
[02:25] <Pici> !enter | xushi
[02:25] <ubotu> xushi: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:25] <CVirus> stefg: it will keep re-downloading it forever ?
[02:25] <xushi> i can't get this kubuntu machine to connect to a windows domain controller, and windows dns server. I am trying everything i can
[02:25] <xushi> Pici: i didn't
[02:25] <monteiro> ExIG : when i'm starting my hp
[02:26] <ExIG> monterio: how old is it roughly?
[02:26] <CVirus> Tomcat_: you mean it's re-downloading the invalid packets of all the torrent now ?
[02:26] <stefg> CVirus: if the seeder holds a corrupt file, yes .... but this is not an ubuntu specific problem, rther try #bittorrent or whatever it's called
[02:26] <xushi> I tried god knows how many tutorials out there but they dont explain 10% of what;s needed, so i get lost there
[02:26] <Tomcat_> CVirus: Well it re-downloads the remaining 0.2% until it's downloaded correctly.
[02:27] <CVirus> hmm
[02:27] <CVirus> Tomcat_: thanks
[02:27] <CVirus> stefg: thanks
[02:27] <Tomcat_> CVirus: If you're downloading something "gray-area", it might also be another client sending you corrupt data on purpose.
[02:27] <monteiro> ExIG : less than 1 year (it was bought in october 2006)
[02:27] <AfterDeath> elkbuntu: sorry
[02:27] <CVirus> Tomcat_: gray-area ?
[02:27] <Tomcat_> CVirus: Commercial music / movies.
[02:28] <ExIG> monterio: Right, well SMART is a hard drive monitoring tool and sometimes if it picks up a bad sector it will tell you that the hard drive is going to fail, not always the case
[02:28] <CVirus> I see
[02:28] <monteiro> ExIG: i made the bios test, and its all ok, but when they say hardisk 2 (which is number 2 ? sda2 ?=
[02:28] <pegger>  I am running ubuntu 6.06 apche 2.055 and I am trying to get this application working that relies on perl,  I know that I have perl and mod_perl working because it is desplayed in the directory listing, what am I missing
[02:28] <ExIG> monterio: yeah it will be sda2 in most cases, you can turn SMART off in BIOS, which i usually do because its not always accurate
[02:29] <luddite> fiesty doesnt allow first attempt internet connections, but allows second with alll apps, synaptic, firefox, etc
[02:29] <monteiro> ExIG: i've partition (sda3) that is unknown, maybe is that ?
[02:29] <el1> Anybody can help with freenas-nfs ubuntu?
[02:30] <ExIG> monterio: there is a chance, unfortunatley SMART's labelling isnt always consistent with the OS
[02:31] <ExIG> monterio: if the hard drive is less than a year old I would put it down to SMART picking up a bad sector, or corrupt file rather than the HDD been faulty
[02:32] <monteiro> ExIG: yes, maybe is that. because i've never had problems, in linux i've my disk errors corrected with fcsk . My windows partition with NTFS, it was never verified.
[02:32] <ExIG> monteiro: sounds about right, personally I would turn it off in BIOS
[02:32] <el1> Anybody can help with freenas-nfs ubuntu??
[02:33] <monteiro> ExIG: ok, thanks for the help :)

[02:46] <fiXXXerMet> ExIG: YOu have to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:47] <Brilliant> hi @ all
[02:47] <ExIG> fiXXXerMet: and just add it into the modes?
[02:47] <fiXXXerMet> ExIG: Find "Section "Screen" and add "1280x1024" to whatever Depth you'd like.
[02:47] <Brilliant> many users in here ^^
[02:47] <ian07_> Hi! my graphics card is agp 8x DDR. i see this AGP 8X 256MB GDDR will it still work with mine?
[02:47] <ExIG> fiXXXerMet: thanks
[02:47] <fiXXXerMet> Then restart x (I think) - ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:47] <Gat0rvean> ExIG, if that doesn't work,  stop gdm and do "dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg" and add the resolutions through there
[02:48] <ExIG> thanks ill give it a shot
[02:48] <Brilliant> is somewhere a german ubuntu-chat too?

[02:49] <NET||abuse> hi guys, i've got a bit of a weird latency issue with my wifi dirver for a few areas. it's an atheros chip (hp's w500 minipci card) in my hp nc6000 laptop. I have a windows desktop which i use for photoshop/games/other windows nuttyness, and i use synergy to control both with my lapy, buuuuut,, it's laggy, the mouse curser is so not smooth, it's just awful, jumpy and nasty as hell. I've used a buffalo pcmcia card with bcm chip.....
[02:49] <ian07_> so GDDR is same as DDR ?
[02:49] <xushi> help! i get this error whenever i type sudo anything, sudo: pam_authenticate: Authentication information cannot be recovered
[02:49] <ibo> yeah
[02:49] <Hobbsee> sam_kaay: that's probably by design.  the fact that you didnt get an error means it worked
[02:49] <ian07_> nice thanks
[02:49] <ibo> G <- graphics. i think
[02:49] <NET||abuse> and it was lovely and smooth, but bcm has it's own set of issues, (zero signal strength reporting and other issues) so i'd rather use the atheros based card, but this latency is killing my experience
[02:49] <aeonix_> that was wired
[02:50] <ibo> mine is ddr3.. appears as gddr3
[02:50] <sam_kaay> Hobbsee: Yeah sorry I needed to press return for it to execute, thanks.
[02:50] <NET||abuse> anyone have a clue as to how i could fix this?
[02:50] <Enselic__> nm, it just wans't listed with C-h a insert
[02:50] <kayef> I am using conky and it loads well but each time i click on the 'show desktop' icon, conky disappears, any solution?
[02:50] <fiXXXerMet> Can anyone point me to an upgrade from 6.10 -> 7.04 doc?
[02:50] <NET||abuse> I've already stopped the bgscan business that was disconnecting my wifi every minute(bloody nightmare that was)

[03:07] <_Neil> I run a few KDE apps, but they sometimes have quirks in ubuntu, like not being able to use help properly
[03:07] <_Neil> can try asking in #kubuntu re. Kopete perhaps..

[03:11] <ExIG> #kopete tells me there is no way to explicitly set proxy =(

[03:11] <_Neil> ExIG :(
[03:11] <leperkhanzdotcom> all because I can't share folders with the VM.
[03:11] <scales11> hello all, i would like to disable the roaming mode of network manager, and just use manual config.  the problem though is that there is not wpa under manual config.  i have an atheros based card, and i think that network manager is disabling wpa in manual mode because it thinks i cannot support it.  obviously i can though since i am connected through it right now and it supports it in roaming mode
[03:12] <ward_> lepekhanzdotcom: maybe u can setup an ftp server
[03:12] <salty> i have an intel sound card " HDA Intel" ..... it doesn't seem to have any volume to it .... any ideas of how to fix it?
[03:12] <r0ute> salty: run aumix and check everything appropriate is un-muted
[03:12] <Horscht> !ntfs
[03:12] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[03:12] <phy2> I have Feisty 64bit installed, I would like to also install Feisty 32 bit for comparison, will installer like that idea?
[03:12] <Horscht> !ntfs-3g
[03:12] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:12] <salty> ok... r0ute
[03:13] <Geist_> salty: try to plug a headphone, my card has two chanels says the manueal but I nead a threechanel driver
[03:13] <merike> hello, I need help with network configuration, I used alternate installer and since autoconfiguration failed I chose configure later option, and now is later :)
[03:13] <ExIG> _Neil: im thinking that by using the HTTP method Kopete should surely be able to find the HTTP proxy though
[03:13] <ward_> I'm having trouble with ffmpeg, can anyone please help?
[03:14] <salty> Geist_,  that's the only way i can hear it...and barely at that
[03:14] <scales11> another suggestion would perhaps be to use another wifi manager, but vpnc isnt integrated into any
[03:14] <salty> r0ute, nothing is muted
[03:15] <merike> I already used ifup for my eth0 and enabled the connection, but I still can't ping with my Edgy installation
[03:16] <gustraze> hallo
[03:16] <Geist_> set another model in alsa-base, worked fine for my card
[03:17] <aro> If I have a machine with exactly 256mb of RAM, should I use the alternate CD or will the regular one work
[03:17] <salty> can ya walk me thru that Geist_ ?

[03:22] <xushi> guys seriously, i've been asking here since 11am, and it's 4.30pm now
[03:22] <phy2> Ok, you go first
[03:22] <mignus> anybody know to install virtualbox on 7.04
[03:22] <xushi> and why does teh recovery mode give me just one TTY ? the others are blank
[03:22] <magicrobotmonkey> ive got a couple friends who i want to get to install ubuntu next to windows, in the install option to resize the existing partition, does it automatically create / and swap partitions, or will they have to do that?
[03:23] <mrcreativity> can someone tell me where downloaded packages are stored
[03:23] <xushi> fsck this.
[03:23] <Hobbsee> magicrobotmonkey: should be automatic
[03:23] <magicrobotmonkey> sweet thats what i was hoping
[03:24] <magicrobotmonkey> that makes 3 converts this weekend
[03:24] <Hobbsee> :(
[03:24] <Hobbsee> * :)
[03:24] <merike> someone to help with network conf?
[03:25] <scales11> merike: what about it
[03:25] <HorizonXP> hey
[03:25] <merike> I used edgy's alternate installer and autoconf failed for me, I now need to configure manually
[03:25] <HorizonXP> I'm having an issue with Bittorrent downloads in Feisty
[03:26] <HorizonXP> Azureus can't seem to connect to anyone
[03:26] <scales11> merike: i dont suppose you want to try feisty
[03:26] <HorizonXP> I installed Firestarter, and turned off the firewall.... heck, I even added the appropriate ports
[03:26] <salty> merike, are you using wireless?
[03:26] <merike> I actually did once and went back to edgy
[03:26] <HorizonXP> Azureus says it can get through, but I'm getting no connections
[03:26] <scales11> HorizonXP: prob have ports that are being blocked, could be your router
[03:27] <merike> at the moment I'd like to get ethernet working
[03:27] <HorizonXP> And when it tries to connect to the tracker, I get ProtocolException: Connection Reset by Peer
[03:27] <HorizonXP> scales11: I opened those up. I even put myself in the DMZ.
[03:27] <jussi01> HorizonXP: do torrents work on windows for you?
[03:28] <HorizonXP> jussi01: I don't know, I haven't tried.
[03:28] <ward_> HorizonXP: Do you by any chance have a seperate router and modem? in that case u should portforward them on both devices
[03:28] <scales11> HorizonXP: sometimes that still isnt enought, could also be your provider.
[03:28] <salty> merike, my ethernet worked automatically for me....but i had to configure my wireless
[03:28] <scales11> ward_: yeah i had that problem
[03:28] <jussi01> HorizonXP: a lot of pproviders block bittorrent ports...
[03:28] <merike> I enabled connection, used ifup for eth0, but there's something else I need as well
[03:28] <HorizonXP> ward_: Yeah, but I don't think I have acces to configure my cable modem.
[03:29] <salty> merike,  'ifconfig eth0 up' ?
[03:29] <HorizonXP> scales11, jussi01: It could be. I'm on Rogers... they're notorious for doing it.... But i figured it would just be slow
[03:29] <merike> mine did too last time when I used usual installer, however this time it hung
[03:29] <hdxx> HorizonXP: try to change port .. tcp and udp.. 40000 or more.
[03:29] <ward_> HorizonXP: i don't know much about cable modems :(
[03:29] <ward_> you could allways try to http tunnel it lol, if possible
[03:29] <HorizonXP> hdxx: How would I do that in Azureus?
[03:30] <merike> salty: did that
[03:30] <HorizonXP> ward_: that's ok
[03:30] <salty> merike,  are your restricted-modules installed
[03:30] <NekoKun> Hello! We're having a small problem in our lan. Unfortunelly we have no gateway to set a traffic monitor... so, there's any net sniffer that could help us to find the broadcaster that is killing our net?
[03:30] <scales11> ward_:, HorizonXP: i was able to access the router, you just need its address
[03:30] <HorizonXP> what about protocol encryption?
[03:30] <r0ute> NekoKun: tcpdump ?
[03:30] <hdxx> HorizonXP: http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~adv50115/Misc/AzureusSettings1.jpg ..
[03:30] <phy2> sniffer = wireshark
[03:30] <savetheWorld> NekoKun: tcpdump
[03:30] <merike> salty: need to check
[03:30] <salty> ok
[03:30] <scales11> HorizonXP: ward_: i mean modem
[03:30] <Geist_> Anybody knows how to make my nfs client look at the server every time I try to mount something?
[03:31] <ward_> scales11: serious? how did u access?
[03:31] <savetheWorld> NekoKun: do you know what kind of traffic is being broadcast?
[03:31] <phy2> SNIFFER [03:31] <ward_> i worked for a calbe ISP helpdesk lol
[03:31] <ward_> cable
[03:31] <NekoKun> savetheWorld: no idea
[03:31] <HorizonXP> scales11: ok, i'll try to find that.... hdxx: Ok, i'm changing my value to 40000
[03:32] <HorizonXP> but guys: What does ProtocolException: Peer closed connection mean?
[03:32] <savetheWorld> NekoKun: What symptoms are you seeing?
[03:32] <Andeh> hello
[03:33] <merike> salty: seems that they are not, but wouldn't I need them for wireless not ethernet?
[03:33] <scales11> HorizonXP: ward_: let me see, i went into the router, and checked out what its gateway was, then typed it into the browser :)  i am unfortunate or lucky enough to had a modem that really has a built in router, so the combo of the two was a pain on ports
[03:33] <Andeh> I want to use my wireless network. I plugged in my wireless card and the lights went on. What i need to do now?
[03:33] <brussel_> How do you uncompress a file like g15tools.debs.tar.bz2
[03:33] <ward_> nice scales11, so it was just trough http?
[03:33] <HorizonXP> scales11: Ok, i've accessed my modem
[03:33] <MarcN> brussel_: tar jxvf
[03:33] <Andeh> I want to use my wireless network. I plugged in my wireless card and the lights went on. What i need to do now?
[03:33] <brussel_> even though it has a bz2 at the end?

[04:10] <Flonares> LjL, i can't install ubuntu. I can't use the partition to resize the disk, hence i can create the extended filesystem. and the dmesg informs me that the disk is not mounted.
[04:10] <LjL> the_hammer: installed fresh, or upgraded?
[04:10] <the_hammer> fresh
[04:11] <the_hammer> i switched over kubuntu 7.04
[04:11] <the_hammer> but formated and installed fresh
[04:11] <LjL> the_hammer: uhm, so if you do Help / About KDE in any KDE application, it doesn't say "3.5.6"?
[04:11] <the_hammer> to avoid complications wich i seem to have anyways
[04:11] <the_hammer> nope

[04:11] <the_hammer> brb ill reload in kde
[04:12] <LjL> Flonares: i still have trouble following you. you're using the Desktop CD installer, right? and the problem is that you get an error (logged by dmesg) when the installer tries to partition?
[04:12] <Lobosque> LjL can't find anything helpful in launchpad
[04:12] <Loco> hi anybody knows if theres a plugin for the gkrellm that show up the voltages and cpu temperature?
[04:12] <LjL> Lobosque: maybe it's not "helpful", but bug number 96084 definitely sound relevant to your problem, doesn't it. the title being "boot - /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off"
[04:12] <LjL> if that's not relevant, i don't know what is
[04:12] <Flonares> LjL, yes. I get an error, saying that the operation cannot be done.
[04:12] <zylthinking> who can tell me why console font changed after I compiling and installing kernel 2.6.21.1?
[04:13] <animu1> hey guys, im new to ubuntu wondering if anyone can help me with a problem im having

[04:27] <mignus> please help my system is f***ed up
[04:27] <bulmer> ChinaForge: that subnet has to have a gateway that allows it to access the internet

[04:30] <jrib> mignus: try to address the person you are speaking to or your messages are likely to get lost in the scrollback.  What says you don't have permission?

[04:32] <socketbind_> hi, i installed 7.04 server on some archaic hardware, and just it's about to boot (telling me "Starting up...") just reboots
[04:32] <bulmer> ChinaForge: you have to do some tricks on your 1.x to let 2.x use it as the gateway
[04:32] <chinny> LjL - thankyou very much - seem to be it :-)
[04:32] <Ramunas> um, as nobody answering me, then how do I get default ubuntu fonts back?
[04:33] <strabes_> Ramunas: do you have them on your system
[04:33] <mignus> jrib: im i the file manager double click the .deb file and then the package installer start but the it says i cant open the file
[04:33] <LjL> socketbind_: try the kernel options "noapic", "noacpi" and/or "acpi=off"
[04:33] <Falstius> ChinaForge: you would use iptables to set up forwarding from the .2. subnet to the internet.  You can do this with the command line or with a GUI like firestarter.  You can look on google for more information about NAT and IP forwarding.
[04:33] <LjL> !boot > socketbind_    (socketbind_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:33] <socketbind_> thanks LjL, i'll try them right away
[04:33] <Ramunas> strabes: after installing kde some of them look different, I want them to look the way they were before
[04:33] <jrib> mignus: try in a terminal using 'sudo dpkg -i /path/to/the/package.deb' and pastebin the output
[04:34] <jrib> mignus: actually, do you want virtualbox still?
[04:34] <strabes> Ramunas: I know, but are the fonts installed on your system or did you remove them or something
[04:34] <mignus> jrib: yes if it can run or qemu just somthing that can run windows xp
[04:34] <bulmer> Falstius: is that easy to do when both nics have different ip addresses?
[04:35] <christia1> you are good people
[04:35] <Ramunas> strabes: I didn't touch them, kde probably did, and I just want to get things back, I didn't remove any of the fonts
[04:35] <ChinaForge> Falstius,I already look on google,but i can't success. What is firestarter?
[04:35] <Tom47> i have a Canon N1240U scanner which has stopped working in feisty any ideas on why? ... is seen and recognised ok but refuses to scan
[04:35] <LjL> ChinaForge: a firewall GUI
[04:36] <strabes> Ramunas: you can go to system, preferences, fonts and change them. I use kde so I don't remember the exact location of the preference.
[04:36] <pike_> !firestarter > ChinaForge
[04:36] <jrib> mignus: ok, well I don't run windows so I can't tell you what can do it, but I can try to help you figure out what is wrong with the virtualbox install.  Just pastebin the output from the previous command then
[04:36] <Ramunas> strabes: that's the problem, its set to the exact same font, but it looks different now
[04:36] <socketbind_> no luck : |
[04:36] <strabes> Ramunas: is it smaller? not anti-aliased?
[04:37] <Josesordo> I have a problem with Mplayer... :(
[04:37] <Ramunas> strabes: it actually seems bigger
[04:37] <Ramunas> and non anti-aliased...
[04:38] <Falstius> Ramunas: wrong screen resolution?
[04:38] <Ramunas> Falstius: nope, same 1024x768
[04:38] <strabes> Ramunas: isn't there an anti-aliasing option in the gnome fonts preference
[04:38] <strabes> Ramunas Falstius: it wouldn't be the screen resolution, it would be the dpi of his fonts.
[04:38] <strabes> have you tried removing kubuntu-desktop ?
[04:38] <socketbind_> erm, a strange question, is there a way to enforce the installer of 7.04 to install a -386 kernel instead of -server?

[04:40] <strabes> Ramunas: try this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=408452&highlight=change+dpi+of+fonts

[04:40] <mignus> jrib: it start at terminal program with a license file
[04:40] <strabes> Ramunas: don't know if that will help
[04:40] <jrib> mignus: ok, read it and accept it if you agree
[04:40] <Falstius> matthew_: you can also edit /etc/groups by hand.  It is a pretty simple file.
[04:40] <LjL> pike_: hm? it will add user "user" to group "group", if group "group" exists
[04:40] <mignus> i can't click ok
[04:40] <jrib> mignus: try using tab to get to "ok" and then hit enter
[04:41] <matthew_> i don't understand permissions at all
[04:41] <matthew_> it's frustrating
[04:41] <jrib> !permissions > matthew_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:41] <LjL> Falstius: why though, when there are useful commands available? (besides, on a multiuser system, editing group or passwd naively without at least using the "vi*" locking editors is a bad idea)
[04:41] <strabes> matthew_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions?highlight=%28permissions%29
[04:41] <strabes> matthew_: I mean https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[04:41] <mignus> jrib: i think it works now the terminal ends with [ ok ] 
[04:42] <Falstius> LjL: don't have to look up commands you'll only use once, and I highly doubt he is on a multiuser system.  Plus, it is educational :)
[04:42] <jrib> mignus: ok, try what you were doing before then
[04:42] <socketbind_> is there a way to enforce the installer of 7.04 server to install a -386 kernel instead of -server?

[04:42] <Josesordo> what is that :(
[04:42] <LjL> matthew_, every file can be readable, writable and executable - and each of this can apply to the owner of the file, a group of users (type "groups" to see which groups you belong to), and everybody else. when you type "ls -l filename", it will show "-rwxrwxrwx" if the file is readable, writable and executable for all three entities

[04:44] <LjL> e\ectro_: err, the "restricted kernel modules" *are* the proprietary drivers.

[04:48] <LjL> e\ectro_: it does? it certainly doesn't make it easier when an update comes out and your system breaks totally.  besides, 1) the nvidia/ati drivers can now be installed automatically  2) the restricted codecs, same  3) the rest, well, learning what repositories are and how they work is something you *will* need to do, anyway
[04:48] <Josesordo> socketbind_, thanks is now mplayer work ;)
[04:48] <kaiwai> sorry, when I use ffmux_mp4, it corrupts the ripped file, how do I fix it
[04:49] <WhoAmI> !   ?
[04:49] <Juanca> can anyone help me with an error like this: "User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored..." everytime I login?
[04:49] <socketbind_> Josesordo: superb : )

[04:50] <WhoAmI>        !
[04:50] <mrbrocoli> any idea how to fix that or to at least make it ignore libpq5?
[04:50] <LjL> !english > WhoAmI    (WhoAmI, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:50] <Falstius> Juanca: you could just delete the file.  It should be recreated automatically.
[04:50] <mrbrocoli> or how to get some debug output from update-manager
[04:51] <Juanca> Falstius: How do I do that?

[04:58] <Lobosque> Hello guys. I have just put a new HD in my computer with windows, and now when i try to boot the ubuntu hd, i get this error: "/bin/sh : can't acess tty/job control turned off" i searched a lot but i don't found any solution. I'm sure that it is happening because grub/ubuntu is "confused" because i installed a new HD
[04:58] <mrbrocoli> how do i figure out why update-manager is aborting trying to install libpq5 (which i dont have neither care about)?
[04:59] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: do the update through terminal 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'
[04:59] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  im trying a dist-upgrade from edgy to fesity
[04:59] <Falstius> Lobosque: it might be a problem with fstab actually, if your inserting a new drive changed the order of the sata drives.  Are you using edgy or dapper or feisty?
[04:59] <tim167> Eze1: i tried that too, also i re-uploaded the page, still firefox shows the old version :s
[05:00] <Lobosque> Falstius i'm using feisty
[05:00] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  and im afraid of just changing sources.list to feisty repos as i have no idea what else does update-manager do, other than a apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:01] <Falstius> Lobosque: nevermind, fstab is using UUID in that case and so adding a drive shouldn't make any difference (unless you went in and removed the UUID in which case you would probably know enough to not be asking :)).
[05:01] <Petey> Does anyone know a known-working virtual PC, VMware, etc. piece of software that I can run Ubuntu in a virtual environment?  Microsoft Virtual Server doesn't seem to work :/
[05:01] <Lobosque> Falstius it happens in 1/10 of the ubuntu loading bar, i'm gonna paste it in your pvt
[05:02] <Falstius> Lobosque: you should just put it in pastebin and the link to the channel.
[05:02] <ccnp> my sound card  is not work in ubuntu 7.4  it is  Adi 1981B SoundMAX  i need help
[05:02] <MarcN> Petey: Xen, VMware
[05:02] <MarcN> Petey: qemu
[05:02] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: my upgrade just died too with a broken package... check if your sources.list has already be changed to point to feisty if that's the case use the command line
[05:02] <Josesordo> there is a quake 3: arena for linux??
[05:02] <finley> Petey: we run over 30 virtual machines off a quad cpu opteron box.  Dapper as host OS, and Ubuntu as most of the guest OS'.
[05:02] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  no, it's all pointing to edgy still
[05:02] <tim167> when i open the page with lynx it shows the right version, why  is Firefox sticking with the old version, i cleared everything...
[05:02] <jvolkman> Josesordo, yes
[05:03] <finley> Petey: all using vmware.
[05:03] <Eze1> Anybody knows how to switch right/middle mousebutton functions? I want to open firefox-tabs with my MIDDLE-button and the desktopmenu with my RIGHT-button. . !
[05:03] <jvolkman> Josesordo, id has ports of all of their games for Linux
[05:03] <Josesordo> jvolkman, :O
[05:03] <O2O> hi
[05:03] <finley> Petey: only real issue is that guest OS clocks run a bit slowly, but a cronjob to sync them frequently (*/5) fixes that.
[05:04] <Josesordo> well, I'll play it :D
[05:04] <ccnp> my sound card  is not work in ubuntu 7.4  it is  Adi 1981B SoundMAX  i need help

I'm sure that it is happening because grub/ubuntu is "confused" because i installed a new HD -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18593/
[05:04] <Petey> Thank you MarkN, Finley... I'm going to try VMware now
[05:04] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: maybe you can remove the conflicting package after the upgrade attemp
[05:04] <Falstius> is there nothing before that?
[05:05] <Petey> I just had MS VS already on a server, thought that'd work :/
[05:05] <Falstius> Lobosque: is there nothing before that?
[05:05] <peippo> Hi. I have a problem starting my Ubuntu Edgy GUI (X?) After the login screen I get this msg, and a black screen for a few seconds, then get thrown back to the login. "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon. Unable to determine the address of the message bus". Any ideas what to do?
[05:05] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: before**
[05:05] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL: it fails during download of the package.. and i dont have libpq5 anywhere
[05:05] <Lobosque> Falstius I don't think so. and it happens in the start of ubuntu loading bar.
[05:05] <Falstius> Lobosque: sata or pata?
[05:05] <Lobosque> Falstius pata
[05:05] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL: it goes try to download everything, then fails then rolls back everything
[05:06] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: remove the package an try again
[05:06] <Lobosque> Falstius i search and i see that people usually have this error with live cd
[05:06] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  i dont have that package at all! :)
[05:06] <Lobosque> *searched
[05:06] <rever75> Hi is there a way to add  md5sum to the right click contex menu? I assume one could do it via a script that opens in a terminal. Just not a script writer
[05:06] <ccnp> my sound card  is not work in ubuntu 7.4  it is  Adi 1981B SoundMAX  i need help
[05:07] <neverblue> I currently have a working Intel (on board) video card, I just added a ATI 8MB PCI into this system.  I followed the directions given on http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide, but without success. I haven't tried the manual step, as I dont even know if I can install this card (for duals), someone know if i can?
[05:07] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: i have a similar problem with tzdata (404 not found) i just waited a few days till my irrors catched up
[05:07] <Juanca> thank you LjL
[05:07] <Falstius> Lobosque: you could try using a liveCD to reinstall grub.  You'd have to google for instructions.
[05:07] <oldude67> ljl: sending someone to page that doesnt give specifics for newbie will get them lost
[05:07] <Juanca> Falstius: Hey. It didn't worked
[05:07] <oldude67> ljl: sorry for the hassle
[05:08] <LjL> oldude67, i'm not entirely sure *what* specifics that page doesn't give... it gives you every single command you have to type. and since you're on IRC, it should be pretty obvious they're to be typed, well, on IRC:...
[05:08] <Falstius> Juanca: the message didn't go away, or it didn't recreate .dmrc?
[05:08] <e\ectro_> I ran a netboot install for this version of feisty, and I must say, the GRUB setup just BLOWS...  I have 1 SATA (primary), 2 IDE drives, and it thought my SATA was (hd2,0).  had to boot off knoppix, chroot, and resetup grub..  just thought I'd share
[05:08] <Juanca> Falstius: the message didn't go away
[05:09] <Meltir> how do i add a pl_PL.ISO locale in ubuntu ? under debian when i did dpkg-reconfigure locale i got a nice list of locales i could compile, how do i get something like that here ?
[05:09] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  bummer.. how do i find out more info about whats going wrong? the logs dont say much..
[05:09] <oldude67> ljl: well im use to windows that usually is all add in with the download of things...not afterwards
[05:09] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  logs in /var/log/dist-upgrade (is there any other?)
[05:09] <Juanca> Falstius: I didn't check if .dmrc was recreated
[05:09] <oldude67> ljl : so i didnt know if i had to go to a setting or something to do that.
[05:10] <oldude67> ljl: or irc homepage.
[05:10] <awk_> can somebody recommed media player with cue/mp3 support (for gnome) ?
[05:10] <LjL> oldude67: eh?! this has nothing to do with Ubuntu. you're presently on the Freenode IRC (Internet Relay Chat) network -- you'd have to follow the same step if you had joined from within Windows.
[05:10] <Falstius> Juanca: can you do ls -l .dmrc and paste the -rw-r----- part?
[05:10] <bwlang> awk_: vlc can play just about anything
[05:10] <pike_> Juanca: just curious if you ls -l /home you own home dir right?
[05:10] <LjL> oldude67, IRC isn't something specific to Ubuntu. this is simply the Ubuntu IRC channel on the Freenode network.
[05:10] <oldude67> no never had
[05:10] <awk_> bwlang: yeah, but it's cue support does not work for me
[05:10] <oldude67> ljl: no never had irc before
[05:11] <Juanca> Falstius: ls: .dmrc: No such file or directory
[05:11] <LjL> oldude67: that's because you never installed any IRC program. i guess.
[05:11] <Juanca> pike: How do I know from the output I get?
[05:11] <oldude67> ljl: no.....only thing i had close to it was mirc and set that all up before even logging into chat
[05:11] <Falstius> !grub > Lobosque (the reinstalling grub after windows bit, should be applicable in this case too)
[05:11] <neverblue> anyone to help with this ATI card install?
[05:12] <Juanca> pike: My home folder is in green
[05:12] <Juanca> pike: I mean highlighted
[05:12] <oldude67> ljl: like i said sorry for the hassle....its new.
[05:12] <Lobosque> Faltius what is busybox?
[05:12] <Falstius> Lobosque: it is a program that emulates many of the normal command line programs like cat, cp, mv but it is much much smaller.
[05:13] <oldude67> can anyone tell me other then amazon , on where to find a book on ubuntu?
[05:13] <matid> Anyone with Joost (http://joost.com) invites to spare?
[05:13] <hoffmanc> hello, does anyone know of an IRC client with vim readline support?
[05:13] <Juanca> Falstius: this is what i get with "ls -l .dmrc":     ls: .dmrc: No such file or directory
[05:14] <ccnp> my sound card  is not work in ubuntu 7.4  it is  Adi 1981B SoundMAX  i need help
[05:14] <ccnp> my sound card  is not work in ubuntu 7.4  it is  Adi 1981B SoundMAX  i need help
[05:14] <neverblue> can you use 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' to setup dual monitors?
[05:14] <Lobosque> Faltius "I've had the same problem as you have and spent hours going through the jungle of posts on this topic. In the end, the solution was, for me at least, VERY simple: I changed the UUID of my disk in my menu.lst (/boot/grub/menu.lst) to the classical identification of device location." How do I do this?
[05:15] <Falstius> Juanca: yeah, I'm thinking.  You could check what pike asked by doing ls -l /home and looking for your user name.  It should look like (with different dates) drwxr-x--x 125 zapata zapata 12288 2007-05-01 10:20 zapata
[05:15] <Ramunas> my fonts look like this: http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png and I was told that I need to enable xft, anybody knows how to do that?
[05:16] <Juanca> Falstius: It is "drwxrwxrwx 52 zapata zapata  4096 2007-05-01 10:09"
[05:16] <hoffmanc> I mean, I don't care about color support or anything, I would just like an easier way to edit lines when I make spelling mistakes and such
[05:16] <Juanca> Falstius: well "drwxrwxrwx 52 zapata zapata  4096 2007-05-01 10:09 zapata" actually
[05:16] <Falstius> Juanca: do you need to give write permissions to your home directory to other users?
[05:17] <Juanca> Falstius: no
[05:17] <Falstius> Juanca: do chmod o-rwx /home/zapata
[05:17] <neverblue> I currently have a working Intel (on board) video card, I just added a ATI 8MB PCI into this system.  I followed the directions given on http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide, but without success. I haven't tried the manual step, as I dont even know if I can install this card (for duals), someone know if i can?
[05:18] <Juanca> Falstius: how do I know if that worked?
[05:18] <Falstius> Juanca: that just does the base directory, to do all of the files and subdirectories it is chmod -R o-rwx /home/zapata ... but you probably don't need that to fix this problem (it would be good for security however)
[05:18] <rever75> Is there a network card tester?  I am having tons of issues with my network card. I can download stuff but the md5sum is always wrong.
[05:18] <rever75> Someone else on the same network can download it and the md5sum is correct.
[05:18] <Flonares> LjL, kubuntu is rollin' on the pc! thks o/
[05:19] <rever75> HOwever, if I copy it from his machine to mine it is wrong when done.
[05:19] <Falstius> Juanca: you can ls -l /home again.  To check if the error message goes away, login again.
[05:19] <hoffmanc> can anyone even see what I'm writing?
[05:19] <Tom47> hoffmanc: i use xchat gnome and it has a spell checker
[05:19] <rever75> yes hoffmanc
[05:19] <Yabbo> hoffmanc: i can see you talking
[05:19] <Falstius> rever75: $5 for a new network card?
[05:20] <Juanca> Flastius: I will, thank you. But what about "cat: /.dmrc: No such file or directory"
[05:20] <hoffmanc> rever75, that was just an example, sometimes new words must be added, or I want to delete the rest of the line fast, etc.
[05:20] <Falstius> Juanca: that is okay.  Even if you don't have one, it isn't a problem.
[05:20] <rever75> Falstius, I agree I believe that is it too. However, is there a network card tester
[05:20] <cute_bettong> im useing the gl desktop stuff....and i hit something that let me zoom and pan around the desktops as if they where a cube...can anyone tell me what i hit to do that? i have things set to default keys and such...i just turned the effects on...but don't know how to use them
[05:20] <hoffmanc> I use vi mode in the shell, and it would be nice to have the same functionality in an irc client
[05:20] <zylthinking> hellow, my terminal font changed but I don't know why, seems compiling and installing new kernel don't effect the font setting, isn' it
[05:21] <strabes> cute_bettong: ctrl+alt+mouseclick
[05:22] <e\ectro_> ccnp: alsamixer
[05:22] <e\ectro_> ccnp: make sure that you dont have things muted

[05:22] <cute_bettong> strabes, dosen't seem to work.... O_o could i have broken it....i did it by accedent the first time lol
[05:23] <Arby> cute_bettong: try ctrl-alt-leftarrow/rightarrow.
[05:23] <strabes> cute_bettong: do you have the desktop cube plugin enabled
[05:23] <Falstius> Lobosque: nano is easy to use
[05:23] <StoneNote> Lobosque, depends on the file. either "nano <filename>" or "sudo nano <filename>"
[05:23] <strabes> nano is awesome. i'd learn vi if i had the time
[05:24] <strabes> i bet vi would be better once you learned all the commands and things
[05:24] <cute_bettong> strabes, how do i tell if i do or not.....it just worked for a second and i was like OOOOoo new eyecandy hehe
[05:24] <iopk> hi - I just installed Ubuntu and I apparently mis-identified my keyboard layout. How can I change it (commandline, there is no X since it's the server version)
[05:24] <Juanca> Falstius: didn't work either, the message is still there
[05:24] <strabes> cute_bettong: run beryl-manager
[05:24] <cute_bettong> strabes, um what is that lol
[05:24] <zylthinking> hellow, my terminal font changed but I don't know why, seems compiling and installing new kernel don't effect the font setting, isn' it
[05:25] <Falstius> Juanca: your computer is irritating :)  The last thing I can think of is, mv ~/dmrc_backup .dmrc && chmod 600 .dmrc
[05:25] <strabes> cute_bettong: right click on the red gem icon
[05:25] <Falstius> Juanca: and do chmod -R o-rwx /home/zapata
[05:25] <cute_bettong> strabes, there is no red gem O_o where are you talking of?
[05:25] <zylthinking> hellow, my terminal font changed but I don't know why, seems compiling and installing new kernel don't effect the font setting, isn' it
[05:26] <One2abusE> anyone have a few minutes and a brain for a fresh newb to pick about fiesty and wireless
[05:26] <strabes> cute_bettong: should be in your notification area next to your clock
[05:26] <Yabbo> im having issues with my samba. i have it installed and file sharing enabled and a folder shared out but when i go to a windows system and try and access the system it asks for a username and password. i havent been able to igure out how to add a user for smb access
[05:26] <wael95> can i play a game in ubuntu?
[05:26] <zylthinking> hellow, my terminal font changed but I don't know why, seems compiling and installing new kernel don't effect the font setting, isn' it
[05:26] <Juanca> Falstius: I don't know if the solution could be this: " I changed the home folder permission to 700 (owner=rwx, and all others blank) and...IT WORKED!!! ", but I don't know how to do it.
[05:26] <zylthinking> I do need your hand
[05:27] <cute_bettong> strabes, theres a little splotch next to the clock yellow in colour i click on it and it has a check mark next to the gl desktop and then a selection for prefrences
[05:27] <Falstius> Juanca: that is basically what chmod -R o-rwx /home/zapata would do.
[05:27] <zylthinking> hellow, my terminal font changed but I don't know why, seems compiling and installing new kernel don't effect the font setting, isn' it
[05:27] <strabes> cute_bettong: hit alt+f2 and type beryl-manager then hit enter

[05:29] <neverblue> I currently have a working Intel (on board) video card, I just added a ATI 8MB PCI into this system.  I followed the directions given on http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide, but without success. I haven't tried the manual step, as I dont even know if I can install this card (for duals), someone know if i can?

[05:35] <Muxec> Is there any chance to have l2tp support in linux un the future?
[05:36] <jhaig> iulian_: If it is, it will probably not be a Linux solution.  More likely, you will need some fancy electronics.

[05:39] <iulian_> jhaig, yes this is what I do now. But I don't need it every time so... Anyway, I'll stay to this solution
[05:39] <variant> oldude67: you can replace gnome-screensaver with xscreensaver and all the same savers are there

[05:44] <variant> bobbob1016: try, it is probably available via apt get, or you could use dd which is simple but dangerous if your not carefull
[05:44] <oldude67> so i would type in apt-get install xscreensavers?

[05:47] <smk420> variant: i have added a host name ALL: ALL: *.smk420.sytes.net but it does not seem to work
[05:47] <malsyned> ffm: files from each package are stored in /usr/bin, /usr/share, /usr/lib, &c depending on what kind of files they are.
[05:47] <variant> ffm: other stuff tends to go to /usr/share like images and sounds etc
[05:47] <ffm> variant: Sorry, no idea. I am setting up esmtp w/ mutt, and I dont know where it is. I will try those directories.
[05:47] <strabes> cholera: purge removes all of your settings etc
[05:47] <A[D] minS> every time when i try to install prozilla i get this error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18610/

[05:48] <smk420> variant: when i comment out ALL: ALL in /etc/hosts.deny it works fine
[05:48] <cholera> strabes: ok, thanks I'll give it a try, hopefully I can get ff to work as advertised :)
[05:48] <padde32> hey there guys...
[05:48] <malsyned> ffm: run "which esmtp" and see if it's in your path
[05:48] <ffm> malsyned: Thanks.
[05:48] <ffm> malsyned: Will do.
[05:48] <Pici> zylthinking: Take a look at the documentation in /usr/share/doc/console-tools and the other /usr/share/doc/console-* folders, since now these are the packages used to set up the console font at boot time.
[05:48] <Lobosque> I`m using ubuntu live cd. I`m able to mount every partition i have using ~device manager~, except the one that my Ubuntu is installed  in, why

[05:48] <ffm> malsyned: I got /usr/bin/esmtp
[05:48] <ffm> malsyned: Does that mean it is htere?

[05:50] <ravigehlot> I am getting authentication errors with Sendmail. But nothing is recorded on the maillog. Sendmail is working with saslauthd.
[05:50] <malsyned> that only works for installed packages.  for packages you haven't installed, the apt-file package can give you similar info.
[05:50] <smk420> variant: thanks
[05:50] <variant> smk420: np, hope it works for you
[05:50] <oldude67> ok how can i install dpkg --configure -a ?

[05:51] <Lobosque> how do i mount a ext3 partition from live cd?
[05:51] <MalMen> hello, its possible i install ati and nvidia drivers, and on startup ubuntu know what drivers need to use ?
[05:51] <variant> oldude67: you don't install it you run it
[05:51] <malsyned>  ffm: also useful: if you want to see where the files from a particular package were installed to, run dpkg -L packagename
[05:51] <Muxec> Did you try PCLinuxOS?

[05:51] <ffm> open: /home/luke/.esmtprc: Success
[05:51] <Skaag> what's wrong?
[05:51] <pike_> wubba: yeah just google tightvnc or something and download the server or client for windows. whichever you want
[05:51] <l3mr> MalMen: you have multiple graphics cards in your pc?
[05:51] <variant> MalMen: no, what card do you ahve nvidia or ati?
[05:52] <MalMen> i have ati
[05:52] <MalMen> but i am trying to do a live cd
[05:52] <MalMen> with beryl inside
[05:52] <ffm> malsyned: So, it dosnt work. I get a Exit of 78, whatever that means...
[05:52] <l3mr> MalMen: just install the drivers for your graphics card.
[05:52] <pike_> wubba: putty is also essential tool on windows boxes to have
[05:52] <variant> MalMen: ah, then you might need to script it a little
[05:52] <MalMen> hmm
[05:52] <malsyned> ffm: I don't know anything about getting mutt and esmtp to play nice together.  Sounds like your config file's file permissions are too open, though.  Usually programs will refuse to load files if they contain sensitive information but are world- or group-readable.
[05:53] <Lobosque> how do i mount a ext3 partition from live cd?
[05:53] <station2> what will be more easy for the internet cafe users?  gnome or kde?
[05:53] <malsyned> ffm: run ls -l ~luke/.esmtprc and see what the permissions actually are on that file.
[05:53] <ExIG> station2: id say gnome
[05:53] <MalMen> station2 i think kde
[05:53] <padde32> hehe
[05:53] <MalMen> because its more windows liked
[05:53] <ExIG> haha
[05:53] <ant___> what is the command for looking at block sizes of folders under / ?
[05:54] <ffm> malsyned: -rw-r--r-- 1 luke luke 123 2007-04-30 12:45 /home/luke/.esmtprc
[05:54] <ant___> something like df
[05:54] <padde32> Im new at this. I have installed Ubuntu. But 9 out of 10 times a stops 1/3 in the loading in the beginning, it say [ok]  to a lot, but then stops after "dev/sda1: clean, 98391/60866560 files... [ok]   there it stops and I cant get further into Ubuntu ? whats wrong ?
[05:54] <station2> second question, it is possible to run msn messenger by wine?
[05:54] <station2> somebody try it?
[05:54] <malsyned> ffm: yup.  the file is world- and group-readable.  you need to get rid if the world-read and group-read bits on that file.  You know about the chmod command?
[05:54] <MalMen> station2 no, i was tryed
[05:55] <ExIG> station2: AFIK it can be done, im not a big wine user though, aMSN looks the same as msn if thats all you need
[05:55] <malsyned> station2: does Gaim (/pidgin) not handle MSN Messenger well enough for you?
[05:55] <MalMen> use Kopete is very msn like
[05:55] <mzaza> hello, I've removed compiz and installed beryl. and Since then sometimes when I open any application terminal, gaim, etc... some times nothing appears and other times just few things of the program appears and then i've to keep on trying to close it and open it. any ideas why does that happen?
[05:55] <oldude67> variant: is xscreensavers in synaptic?
[05:55] <variant> oldude67: yes
[05:55] <ffm> malsyned: Basicly, chmod *** is owner, groupt, then world.
[05:55] <variant> oldude67: xscreesaver not xscreesavers
[05:55] <MalMen> you can use aMSN, its a "copy" of MSN
[05:55] <omri> what does the dfsg in mysql5 mean?
[05:55] <MalMen> but kopete is more user like
[05:55] <ant___> station2 : http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=3619&iTestingId=2227
[05:55] <station2> ExiG i have amsn installed its nice but some cosmetics will need.
[05:56] <oldude67> variant: ok well didnt try synaptic but said it couldnt find file for xscreensavers maybe typo
[05:56] <malsyned> ffm: right.  the program is requiring 710 permissions or less on that file, so (again, without knowing your particular situation at all) it sounds like you have to use chown to give it those permissions before you can go forward.
[05:56] <ffm> malsyned: So, what should I chmod it?
[05:56] <fsckr> I have a shared folder on my xp box that has my music on it.  am I able to mount that directory so that I can listen to my mp3s from ubuntu?
[05:56] <ExIG> kopete is more user friendly, but in an internet cafe people would need to set up a new account everyime they wanted to log in
[05:56] <padde32> Someone have a sec in private, for som install / first run questions
[05:56] <malsyned> er, chmod.  not chown.  typo.
[05:56] <MalMen> station2 try kopete :) is very use friendly
[05:56] <ffm> malsyned: So, what is the diff between chmod and chown
[05:56] <malsyned> ffm: I meant chmod.  sorry.
[05:56] <pike_> !samba | fsckr
[05:56] <ubotu> fsckr: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:56] <adict> somebody with madwifi experience? or somebody with Asus F3TC AP008
[05:56] <ffm> malsyned: kk.
[05:56] <oldude67> variant: says newest already installed?
[05:56] <malsyned> just FYI, though, chown changes the owner of the file, chmod changes the permission bits (a.k.a. "mode")
[05:56] <ant___> anyone know the command to look at folder block sizes under /, its something like df
[05:56] <cholera> I have installed the mplayer plugin for Firefox and I've also tried the totem plugin. I can't seem to view avi files embedded in web pages with firefox

[05:58] <mzaza> Guys, I'm using ubuntu 7.04 and I used to run compiz. Then I've removed it and installed beryl through the repository and installed screenlets. Since then I've got wried problems. When I open gaim sometimes I see nothing, sometimes I see few things. Sometimes when I open the terminal I just see a white page. Any ideas?
[05:58] <Inquisitoramous> I'm running Feisty and when I install azureus it loads breifly then closes... any ideas?
[05:58] <malsyned> ffm: yeah, that's about as far as I can get you.  I don't know much about mutt, and even less about esmtp.  Time to drop me and find someone else to help, I'm afraid.
[05:58] <strabes> Inquisitoramous: do you have all the java nonsense installed?
[05:58] <ziggy23> How do I run fsck if it needs exclusive access to the disk?
[05:58] <neverblue> IndyGunFreak, use the ubuntu guide, there is an alternative install

[05:59] <dlew> Hi. I upgraded my home box to edgy last night.  Seemed to go fine.  Now at work, when I ssh into home, I have what appear to be library problems. E.g.: "mutt: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"  "ls: error while loading shared libraries: librt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[05:59] <cholera> strabes: got the link. The only thing is, this is just a problem on one particular machine, I've looked at all plugins for my other box and nothing is different, plugin wise
[05:59] <dlew> Any thoughts on fixes?

[06:00] <zylthinking> Pici: seem  /etc/default/console-setup is the configuration of console_tools?
[06:00] <cholera> strabes: tested in xine, vlc and mplayer, all play
[06:01] <strabes> cholera: strange; I don't know how to help you. Have you posted in ubuntuforums?

[06:01] <zylthinking> the file last modify time is 4-20-2007, the time I install ubuntu 7.04, not today
[06:02] <Muxec> cholera: apt-get remove totem totem-common
[06:02] <Inquisitoramous> Okay, I reinstalled and I'm still getting the same problem with Azereus, it briefly shows the language selection screen then it closes out
[06:02] <cholera> strabes: not yet, I'm still looking around, but it seems I've exhausted all resources. I'm going to backtrack a little and see if there is something else I have done to cause the problem.
[06:02] <LjL> !fsck > ziggy23    (ziggy23, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:02] <cholera> Muxec: ok will do
[06:02] <strabes> cholera: ok good luck
[06:02] <tau> hello, I'm trying to upgrade from dapper to edgy (well, actually to feisty but it seems I need to upgrade to edgy first), and I was told I have to free up 548MB of space in /usr, but that drive already has 760MB free - what gives!?
[06:02] <Muxec> cholera: I use mplayer for video and banshee for music and it is x13 vetter than totem
[06:03] <cholera> strabes: I'm going to take a look at that link you sent as well, thanks
[06:03] <aleksanteri> how can i create permament aliases?
[06:03] <strabes> cholera: it's basically telling you to do what i told you to do
[06:03] <oldude67> tau: you may need that and the 548
[06:03] <Tormentor> Greetings.
[06:04] <cholera> Muxec: I'm new to linix and I was under the impression that totem worked best, since it is default?
[06:04] <Inquisitoramous> If I installed Azereus through synaptic, it grabs all the other programs needed to run it right? or do I need something else still?
[06:04] <Tormentor> I just upgraded to 7.04. My question is, the steps remain the same to install Beryl? (Meaning steps from the Community Docs)
[06:04] <liquidat> Q: Is the hwdb dead? And if yes, when will it be back again?
[06:04] <cholera> *linux
[06:04] <tau> oldude67, you mean it wants like 1.3GB to upgrade!?
[06:04] <quaal> what should i backup before upgrading to 7.04
[06:04] <quaal> so i can restore everything
[06:04] <quaal> if necessary
[06:04] <hoffmanc> cholera, bad impression
[06:04] <LjL> aleksanteri: put them in your .bashrc
[06:05] <aleksanteri> LjL: where is it located? at ~?
[06:05] <hoffmanc> cholera, I think I can count on one hand the number of times totem has successfully played something for me
[06:05] <Flannel> Tormentor: no.  They're different in feisty, because beryl is now in the repositories.
[06:05] <LjL> aleksanteri: yes
[06:05] <aleksanteri> LjL: ok
[06:05] <oldude67> tau: if your using a download probably it has to down load the files to load and so on
[06:05] <oldude67> tau: have to have some tmp space.

[06:06] <Tormentor> Flannel: Means I can make a simple apt-get? Also, what about the Drivers for the Video Cards?
[06:06] <hoffmanc> cholera, get mplayer, it plays *everything*; you can pipe it the string "my favorite movie," and it will play it, I shit you not.
[06:06] <rdesh> anybody on ubuntu 64-bit notice big speed differences??
[06:06] <cholera> hoffmanc: yeah, I think I'm beginning to understand
[06:06] <quaal> is there any way to make the places menu on the top task bar right clickable.. so i can eject removable disks easily ?
[06:06] <oldude67> tau: but ask someone that knows more for sure...just the problem i ran into
[06:06] <liquidat> I would recommend vlc - that is the same as on windows.
[06:06] <albert> hi, my windows needs to be installed on ide0, but i only can install it on ide1. if i manually switch the harddrives and install windows on the former ide1 is ubuntu able to boot (after grub-reasignment) from ide1?
[06:07] <Ramunas> After installing KDE my fonts got broken, here's a comparison before and after: http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png can anybody help me fix it?
[06:07] <quaal> albert, should be fine
[06:07] <tau> oldude67, that's an awful lot of space, especially considering I'm guessing I'm going to have to download the same or probably more to go from edgy to feisty
[06:07] <Flannel> Tormentor: feisty includes some new fangled driver something or other as well.
[06:07] <albert> quaal, k, thx
[06:07] <pike_> albert: as long as you enter the bios and make sure it boots the ubuntu hd. that or boot from livecd and install grub to the windows drive mbr
[06:07] <oldude67> tau the tmp file will probably go away after the install.
[06:07] <Tormentor> Flannel: Roger That. Thanks for help. :-) I'll try it out
[06:07] <Muxec> cholera: totem is default for ideological reasons, I guess
[06:07] <cholera> hoffmanc: it's just all this configuration for plugins and what not for Firefox and other media players. I understand that this is a rights issue, just a little daunting for a new guy :)
[06:08] <albert> pike_: as far as i know needs grub to be reinstalled anyways
[06:08] <Ramunas> anybody?
[06:08] <tau> oldude67, ok - so I could conceivably symlink the temp directory to another drive that has more space available?
[06:08] <albert> i didn't read the how to yet, wanted to study it during the install

[06:15] <stefg> tau: you'll need approx. 1,2 G of space for an upgrade. If you put /var/cach/apt/archives on a separate partition you need approx. 500 MB

[06:17] <T-H> stefg: i said i need Multiverse and Universe Repository DVD
[06:17] <tau> Is it possible to upgrade dapper directly to feisty?
[06:17] <T-H> not the Ubuntu Instal CD/DVD
[06:17] <M_Bison1> anyone know how to get a 5 button + vertical & horizontal scroll mouse working in feisty?
[06:18] <murali> hello all.. i'm a newbie.. and i need help to configure internet over a LAN. .. where mine is the only linux machine,where as all the others are windows machines including the server.
[06:18] <thorlin> I'm looking for some help with a Linksys wmp54gs PCI wireless card for my FF install on my kid's desktop.
[06:18] <stefg> T-H: hmm, not sure if shipit sends these... but distrowatch.com for example is full ofads from services which charge little to send you the DVD
[06:18] <thorlin> I've spent a week reading the forums and I can't get things to work.
[06:19] <george20> hello all, can i get support in here?
[06:19] <Tormentor> On Ubu 6.10 I had my 2nd HD mounted (by editing /etc/fstab) and It worked fine. Now on 7.04 It just shows on "My PC" window one drive named  "111.8 GB Volume" how can I change that to the way it was on 6.10?
[06:19] <M_Bison1> i think ubuntu just sucks with multi button mice & wireless cards
[06:19] <jhaig> murali: Does the LAN have DHCP?  If so, it will probably get set up automatically.
[06:19] <george20> I am stuck at the partition screen when installing, it won't go any further
[06:19] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: I got my aditional mouse buttons to work, there are few tutorials on the forums
[06:19] <cholera> I removed totem, This would be a good example. I have a small family website, when I test with Firefox the embedded avi file, nothing plays. If I choose open in external browser nothing plays. But when tested in IE(wine) and on other box, it plays? If I download the file through FF, only then can I play with app of choice
[06:20] <M_Bison1> in feisty?
[06:20] <kane77> M_Bison1, i'd say it rocks... the first distro that got wifi right...
[06:20] <george20> can anyone help me out?
[06:20] <stefg> george20: the popular solution to that frequent problem is using the alternate install CD. see !alternate
[06:20] <george20> i created two alternate cds
[06:20] <george20> still no luck
[06:20] <george20> !alternate
[06:20] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[06:21] <murali> jhaig:yes it does.. ans i tried running the dhclient eth0 command but it still doesn work.. i'm not even able to ping other computers over the network ,let alone get internet access.. i'm using an external NIC
[06:21] <stefg> george20: any hints what the installer might not like?
[06:21] <T-H> stefg: www.thelinuxstore.ca has a product "Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Complete (6 DVD's)" which contain everythign i need.
[06:21] <george20> i just get a cursor spinning at the partition screen
[06:21] <M_Bison1> i've followed about 6 different guides on the forums, each one just lead to a crashed xorg, with a windows-like blue screen
[06:21] <george20> ive checked the discs, used different brands etc
[06:21] <T-H> but it cost around 35$ without shipment charges
[06:21] <cdavis> what provides /bin/mail ?
[06:21] <T-H> which is way beyond by budget
[06:22] <stefg> T-H: see... no problem to get hold of the stuff, even without broadband
[06:22] <michaelpo> how do i format a ntfs harddisk with 3 partition? i've tried using gparted, could not format, cfdisk, deleted the 3 partition, then write a new fat32 partition, but only 1st partition hdd space is available, the other 2 space is somewhere... dont know how to use fdisk, is there no format command?
[06:22] <T-H> *my budget
[06:22] <M_Bison1> ramunas, what version of ubuntu are you on?
[06:22] <zylthinking> Pici
[06:22] <Tormentor> Sorry, PC crashed.
[06:22] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: feisty
[06:22] <Pici> zylthinking: ?
[06:22] <M_Bison1> what mouse are you using?
[06:22] <george20> !alternate
[06:22] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[06:22] <stefg> george20: but the Live CD works?
[06:22] <T-H> i was lookign for alternative
[06:23] <george20> yes it does
[06:23] <thorlin> can anyone in here help me out with a PCI wireless card installation in my fiesty desktop installation?
[06:23] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: Logitech RX300
[06:23] <stefg> george20: so are you on that now?
[06:23] <jhaig> murali: What do you get if you type "/sbin/ifconfig"?  Is there a block starting eth0?
[06:23] <george20> no
[06:23] <george20> xp
[06:23] <M_Bison1> did you just edit the xorg.conf file or is there something i'm missing?>
[06:23] <dlew> cdavis: mailx or mailutisl
[06:23] <george20> going to dual boot
[06:23] <cdavis> dlew, thanks
[06:23] <dlew> cdavis: that is: mailx or mailutils
[06:23] <soundray> cdavis: there is no /bin/mail in ubuntu -- only /usr/bin/mail (mailx/mailutils)
[06:23] <adict> has anybody here have experiences with madwifi? o
[06:23] <stefg> george20: do you use automatic or manual partitioning?
[06:24] <Tormentor> Question was, on Ubu 6.10 I had my 2nd HD mounted by editing my etc/fstab file, and it worked properly (Mount point and such) now on 7.04 it just shows a "11.8 GB Volume" on the "Computer" Window. How can I solve that and change it to the way it was on 6.10?
[06:24] <zylthinking> Pici: thanks I'll read it, and hope find the real reason.
[06:24] <george20> i was using the option that said resize partition and install ubuntu on the second one
[06:24] <dlew> cdavis: for things lke this, try apt-file search /bin/mail
[06:24] <george20> but it gets stuck at that screen
[06:24] <josue_m> hi, I just installed ubuntu Feisty and I'm looking to get some themes, went to this site http://www.gnome-look.org  but none can be used with system - preferences - themes... any idea suggestion?
[06:24] <murali> jhaig:yes.. i also tried using static ip and using the server address as the gateway address.. the server's ip is 192.168.0.1 and i used 192.168.0.91...
[06:24] <Paavo_> Seems like the KDE in Feisty now defaults to moving the mouse cursor some distance inside the new desktop when flipping desktops. Is there any way to disable this? It's very annoying.
[06:24] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: just xorg.conf
[06:25] <pike_> Tormentor: well you can 'sudo fdisk -l' to get a list im not sure how to change the gui
[06:25] <michaelpo> george, i use cfdisk, manual i think... i had to delete drive c, d, e, then create a new partition, make it bootable, select fat32 format....
[06:25] <jhaig> murali: Can you ping the server's ip?
[06:25] <stefg> george20: hmmm, might be that your partition table looks strange to the installer, or your win-partition isn't in good shape. try a chkdsk i win and defragment he win-drive. that might change something
[06:25] <M_Bison1> ramunas: is there any way i could see the edits you made to get it working?
[06:26] <MalMen> ubuntu have any tool to configure the xorg choosing the grafic driver to use ^?
[06:26] <george20> ok thanks
[06:26] <michaelpo> there is no chkdsk command...

[06:30] <nils_> the guy who installed some of my servers set the language to german, which is my native language, but I'd rather have the operating system english. dpkg-reconfigure locales as used in debian doesn't work, how do I do this in ubuntu?

[06:34] <stefg> minerale: that would better fit in #ubuntu-offtopic

[06:34] <MIST_`> Hi i've been trying to install ubuntu for the past 2 days and i've finally figured out that ubuntu doesn't like my graphics card as it cannot load a display manager. *I've figured out since i can run knoppix live i should be able to copy the module that knoppix uses and put it into the ubuntu config. The problem is i have no idea how to figure out which module knoppix uses and i certainly don't know how to put it so that ubuntu uses it...

[06:37] <Vijaymateti> is any one gonna answer?
[06:37] <stefg> Ramunas: they are not broken, it's just that the anti aliasing settings got messed. what happens if you just set them agagin in the Font applet (back to 'Best form' or LCD) ?
[06:37] <deadeyes> or start them on bootup
[06:37] <pike_> teicah: hard to believe but dell makes decent lcds

[06:39] <usser> Vijaymateti: for that u'll need vmware workstation not just vmware player
[06:39] <stefg> Ramunas: regenearte the fontcache
[06:39] <nils_> sorry for repeating, how do I set ubuntu to english permanently?
[06:39] <deadeyes> what is the tool to change which services start at bootup in ubuntu?

[06:39] <hylje> yes
[06:39] <concept10> deadeyes, sysv-rc-conf

[06:39] <deadeyes> concept10: thanks!
[06:39] <__Ace__> can someone tell me what character I CAN NOT use with a filename/foldername in linux?
[06:39] <Vijaymateti> pike_: what does it do?
[06:39] <hylje> brussel_: yes but it involves extra dependencies, which hurt RAM usage
[06:39] <pike_> usser: prob
[06:39] <usser> brussel_: yes u can
[06:40] <Vijaymateti> pike_: can we make vmimages out of vmserver
[06:40] <stefg> Ramunas: there is a command... just can't remember. sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig won't hurt either way
[06:40] <mjr> __Ace__, "/" and that's it
[06:40] <brussel_> thanks hylje and usser, i have plenty of ram so that's not a worry
[06:40] <OuZo> is there a thesaurus for ubuntu ? thanks

[06:43] <Pelo> Johnston,  check the man page,  man chroot
[06:43] <deafboy> it's not cedega's fault
[06:43] <weas3l> Pelo, i've got feisty runnin on a gateway laptop :D, but i agree... once the dell users get ubuntu, *shudder*
[06:44] <deafboy> i'm getting terrible performance in wow in cedega and it wont even run wine under feisty, can anyone help me?
[06:44] <Johnston> ill try recovery mode and see if I can get to the promtp

[06:45] <Pelo> weas3l, it's not that I expect ubu won'T work properly out of the box on the new dell/ubuntu comps,  but for everthing else they'll come here and  I don'T think they will all be techsavy
[06:45] <Ramunas> stefg: regenerating font cache didn't help :/
[06:45] <usser> Johnston: if u get to terminal just do sudo dpkg --purge <whatever package broke the installation>
[06:45] <deafboy> stefg: yep, 8.36 fglrx drivers but im getting terrible performance, and running wow in wine causes a hard lock = /
[06:45] <weas3l> oh, i agree. i'm kinda interested to see what packages dell will install before shipping to make it easier for the user.
[06:46] <weas3l> that and 'why won't my windows software work on this machine?'
[06:46] <Ramunas> stefg: and strange thing, fonts are only broken in terminal and Opera it seems
[06:46] <stefg> deafboy: verify by 'glxinfo | grep direct' .. it's gotta say yes
[06:47] <usser> deafboy do glxinfo | grep direct

[06:48] <mobutu> sound after hibernate worked with edgy.  no lnoger works .  what did i do wrong
[06:48] <TECH_1> I have a minor problem....opera browser does not play video clips.
[06:49] <usser> deafboy: paste your glxinfo here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[06:49] <Pelo> TECH_1, I think you're gonna need to check with the opera ppl for opera pluggins, for mplayer probably
[06:49] <pihus> Isn't there a way for F-spot to monitor folders with pictures already in them, just like picasa does?
[06:49] <pihus> or is the "import" option the only one?
[06:50] <michaelpo> jrib: will unmount and try to format...
[06:50] <Jakke77> /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.00/jre/lib/i386/ put these  your opera browser settings
[06:50] <deafboy> usser: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18624/
[06:50] <TECH_1> I have all of them..flash/java6......just cant get them running.
[06:50] <Pelo> pihus, you might find an anser to that in the Fspot faq page , if they have one
[06:50] <usser> pihus: just install picasa =)
[06:50] <jrib> michaelpo: use a livecd if you need to
[06:50] <TECH_1> But your right..seems like a opera issue....thanks.
[06:50] <R3ddy> stefg: sudo apt-get install mplayer w32codecs didnt work
[06:51] <Pelo> TECH_1,  I still think you'll have more luck in a channel for opera,  I'm not trying to get rid of you , I'm just saying they are more likely to know
[06:51] <michaelpo> jrib: its an external ntfs hdd enclosure... connected with usb cable
[06:51] <usser> deafboy: yep drivers are ok
[06:51] <pihus> usser, picasa ain't that good in linux :) And it also doesn't support uploading to picasaweb
[06:51] <TECH_1> I understand...thank you for your time.

[06:51] <Pelo> ;-)
[06:51] <pbx> Do people make their own meta-packages to ease setup of new (or wiped-clean) machines?  I've been thinking that would be handy instead of my usual ad-hoc run of apt-gets
[06:51] <jrib> michaelpo: k
[06:52] <deafboy> usser: i really dont get it things ran fine under edgy but take a fat shit under feisty
[06:52] <Kogs> hey guys, just installed Feisty on my laptop. But everytime i try to install anything through synaptic it tells me the dependencies "are not installable"
[06:52] <Petey> Hey guys, fast question... trying to connect to a Windows share in Unbuntu.  The share grants full access to "everyone" yet I can't see to connect.  Could be an issue with how I'm formatting the information.  Can anyone give me a hand real quick?
[06:52] <pike_> R3ddy: i didnt know w32codecs were in repos anymore. search for them on help.ubuntu.com i think you need to download the deb file
[06:52] <deafboy> did they ever fix the vesa driver that comes with feisty or is everyone that installs with an x1000s card still gonna get a black screen of death?
[06:52] <Pelo> pbx,  I made a little bash script using apt-get install,  works very well
[06:52] <R3ddy> but i want realplayer
[06:52] <usser> deafboy: u did an upgrade or a clean install?
[06:52] <stefg> R3ddy: that was a half of a joke... mplayer with the win-codec package plays real-files. no need to install another proprietary player. but someone send you a link to the instructions of the real realplayer i saw
[06:52] <deafboy> usser: upgrade, clean install was garbage
[06:52] <bgrupe> pbx: it'll get useful if you have many machines and create an online repository with such a metapackage ;>
[06:52] <deafboy> usser: many many things were broken on the live cd
[06:52] <R3ddy> hmm ok
[06:52] <usser> deafboy: bah i got black screen with my 9800xt ati card
[06:52] <michaelpo> jrib: i dont know why, but gparted is "scanning all devices" for a long time now....
[06:52] <Pelo> R3ddy,  someone already gave you a link to do get realplayer,
[06:53] <pbx> Pelo: Cool, just a sequence of install commands? Any gotchas. bgrupe: just this one machine at the moment, but I agree
[06:53] <pike_> pbx: dpkg can also generate a list file. not sure of syntax
[06:53] <deafboy> usser: feisty so far has been a big step backwards
[06:53] <usser> deafboy: just two days ago
[06:53] <pbx> pike_: Like, it can generate a list of the stuff I installed over the raw dist?  That would be neato
[06:53] <deafboy> usser: but yeah no games run under wine currently, not even warcraft 3
[06:54] <hylje> deafboy: is that so?
[06:54] <Kogs> Does the fact that I installed the Alternate Feisty ISO have anything to do with the fact that I can't install anything through synaptic?
[06:54] <deafboy> hylje: yeah somethin is fucked up on my computer XD
[06:54] <hylje> ah, local problem
[06:54] <Johnston> thanks for the help guys
[06:54] <usser> deafboy: thats really weird
[06:54] <monio> hi i need help. How can i change the refresh rate of the monitor to 75Hrz when the highest possible is 60?
[06:54] <michaelpo> jrib: i think i will reboot....
[06:54] <elquesea> hi
[06:55] <sebsebseb> I used Samba myself  some time last year,  so that I could  write and open files on the NTFS external hard disk which is connected to the XP comp.  Yes do that from Ubuntu.  however it was such a long time ago that I carn't even remember the commands I had to use to do it.  also now I am helping someone with his computers.  and he wants to be able to move copy over files from Linux to his other lap top which is networked
[06:55] <Pelo> pbx,   you can list more then one package for a single apt-get install  you just put a space in between,  mine also uses  dpkg for already downloaded deb files saved to my home folder, you can put  wget commands in there to add 3rd party repos   I even have some copy commands for some stuff,  and I am looking into usuing "sed" to automaticaly edit some config files
[06:55] <usser> Johnston: fixed it??
[06:55] <deafboy> monio: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:55] <jrib> michaelpo: why?
[06:55] <sebsebseb> together.  to his other one that runs XP.  also his external hard disk is NTFS.  so it makes sense of course that Windows writes to it and not Linux.  yep Samba can do that.  and then he can plug it in to  XP or Linux when he wants to.
[06:55] <stefg> Kogs: no... your sources.list might be faulty. waht do you get when you sudo apt-get update?
[06:55] <michaelpo> jrib: it is "scanning all devices" for 5 mins now
[06:55] <pike_> monio: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:55] <Johnston> usser: im getting there
[06:55] <pbx> Pelo: Cool, thanks for the details.
[06:55] <monio> thx
[06:55] <deafboy> usser: are you sportin feisty or edgy?
[06:55] <elquesea> how coul I edit a file from the recovery mode
[06:55] <sebsebseb> help please  also is there a way to use Samba without commands being needed?  or  can the external hard disk and XP partion be mounted in Ubuntu let's say  and files just copyed in there through Samba.  and then  no commands needed?
[06:55] <jrib> elquesea: nano -w file
[06:55] <usser> deafboy: frankly i saw no difference so far
[06:55] <elquesea> perfect
[06:55] <jrib> michaelpo: hmm ok, why not just close gparted?
[06:55] <pike_> elquesea: mount -o remount,rw /   should work
[06:55] <elquesea> thx

[06:56] <Ax3> dell is endorsing you guys
[06:56] <Esteth> i'm going to be upgrading from an ATI X800 to an nVidia 8800GTS tomorrow. what order should i remove/install drivers and the cards to ensure a "seamless" transition?

[06:56] <michaelpo> jrib: when i reopen gparted, it continue the "scanning all devices", even after i unmount, eject, unplug the usb and re attached, it is still scanning all devices...
[06:56] <deafboy> usser: only one thing didn't work under edgy and that was my MS reader but i dont think the kernel supports it yet
[06:57] <usser> Esteth: deinstall the ati proprietary drivers first, if u had installed them at all
[06:57] <jrib> michaelpo: I see, i guess you can try rebooting then since I don't know what would cause that
[06:57] <Boohbah> mark shuttlecock will be able to take another space trip soon with all that dell cash!
[06:57] <Kogs> stefg: oh I see what happened, i installed it over the network and now it's trying to find the updates on the computer I installed it on instead of the Ubuntu repositories
[06:57] <Esteth> usser: i'm using the opensource "ati" driver at the moment
[06:57] <Pelo> Boohbah,  #ubuntu-offtopic

[06:57] <michaelpo> exit
[06:57] <stefg> !easysource | Kogs
[06:58] <usser> Esteth: oh then you should not have any problems just change the driver in xorg from ati to vesa
[06:58] <tatters> How does one find the name of a USB webcam that is plugged into port.?
[06:58] <ubotu> Kogs: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[06:58] <stefg> hey, bot, wake up!
[06:58] <usser> Esteth: remove your ati card and install nvidia and then install nvidia driver
[06:58] <Kogs> ah sweet thanks
[06:58] <usser> Esteth: and you should be fine
[06:58] <pike_> tatters: dmesg |tail and lsusb are useful

[06:58] <usser> deafboy: ms reader whats that?
[06:59] <deafboy> usser: Memory Stick Pro reader
[06:59] <deafboy> usser: kernel supports SD cards but not Memory Stick Pro
[06:59] <usser> deafboy: omg whats so pro about it??
[06:59] <sebsebseb> or something yes,  but there is talk about data loss
[06:59] <usser> deafboy: oh sorry
[06:59] <sebsebseb> if Linux writes to NTFS
[06:59] <deafboy> usser: lol
[06:59] <usser> deafboy: its not pro reader, its the card thats pro =))
[06:59] <Pici> !ntfs
[06:59] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[07:00] <deafboy> usser: yeah but anyway the reader doesn't like edgy very much i guess
[07:00] <R3ddy> i cant find any codecs that support the .rmvb format. any help?
[07:00] <mon^rch> sebsebseb: I have been writing with it for a LONG time now no probs, and its been released now :)
[07:00] <qaldune> any of you guys know any good linux tool on image resizing?

[07:01] <usser> why why why
[07:01] <sharms> usser: they both work.
[07:01] <mon^rch> sebsebseb: installing ntfs-config will install the ntfs-3g driver and a handy little gui to mount/unmount ntfs drives :)
[07:02] <Pelo> usser, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[07:02] <usser> sharms: not for me they dont =)

[07:02] <sebsebseb> ok, but he might still want to directlly send files over to his other lap top running XP
[07:02] <sebsebseb> and so Samba?
[07:02] <sharms> usser: if you ask questions and give no information, nobody in the world can help you

[07:10] <Possum> Anyone know anything about Dell's proposed selling of computers with Feisty preinstalled?
[07:10] <Pelo> Lobosque, boot the live cd and partiton your new hdd properly I think

[07:10] <R3ddy> if i goto http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/pool/ it says Forbidden...
[07:10] <Possum> I'm curious as to what laptop prices would be... if it would be worth it
[07:10] <Pelo> Possum,  no more then what we've read on the various blog , and a lot of speculation about this channel getting swamped
[07:10] <Possum> I'd really like to support Dell in this, despite my general dislike for them
[07:11] <zaggynl> Anyone knows a working xfire plugin for ubuntu feisty?
[07:11] <R3ddy> the tutorial tells me to goto that link, buts it forbidden :x any ideas?
[07:11] <Nvening_> hi, im trying to upgrade from edgy to feisty but when i press upgrade after downloading a couple of files it says authetication failed, i can connect to the internet properly (being on irc lol), can anyone help?

[07:13] <sharms> aoirthoir: authoritative information on dell + ubuntu
[07:13] <aoirthoir> sharms, ah...hoooray!
[07:13] <Pelo> Lobosque,  check inthe forum then,  that way my only suggestion,  but you are not the first so I gues there will be a fix in there
[07:13] <Lobosque> Pelo and I can't mount my ubuntu HD on live cd to make some changes in some files that, as a site say, fix the problem
[07:13] <Nvening_> anyone??

[07:14] <FreshPrince> hi ppl
[07:14] <FreshPrince> how do i start ssh?
[07:14] <Pelo> Lobosque, hmmm,  try and make sure your new hdd is plugged in as a slave drive and not a master
[07:14] <FreshPrince> with which command?
[07:14] <sharms> Nvening_: your issue is with third party sources.  You probably used automatix etc
[07:14] <aoirthoir> hooraaaay
[07:14] <aoirthoir> :D
[07:14] <jadhog> FreshPrince: server or client?
[07:14] <wirelessmonkey> authentication failed? sorry Nvening_   | did you use dist-upgrade?  Sounds like third party issues maybe.
[07:14] <sharms> FreshPrince: sudo apt-get install ssh
[07:14] <FreshPrince> jadhog, client.. i want that someone connect with ssh to ym computer
[07:15] <Odi> hello... please.
[07:15] <FreshPrince> sharms, ok and then? how do i start the sshd ?
[07:15] <Pelo> R3ddy, http://www.real.com/linux, just dl and install
[07:15] <Gorgapor> !nx
[07:15] <sharms> FreshPrince: that starts it.
[07:15] <Nvening_> so automatix stops me being able to upgrade??
[07:15] <jadhog> autostarts FreshPrince
[07:15] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[07:15] <sharms> !automatix
[07:15] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:15] <FreshPrince> sharms, ok
[07:15] <FreshPrince> jadhog, ok thx
[07:15] <Nvening_> gah, cba for a clean install lol
[07:15] <Odi> anybody knows some way to delay the autostart of some program using the session manager
[07:15] <Gorgapor> !vnc
[07:15] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[07:15] <wirelessmonkey> Nvening: no, automatix installs 3rd party repositiories.  Comment them out while doing the upgrade.
[07:16] <Lobosque> Pelo it is slave
[07:16] <turbolover> hey guys
[07:16] <wirelessmonkey> hello turbolover
[07:16] <Nvening_> oh, ill try, you mean  untick the ones it installed?
[07:16] <wirelessmonkey> Nvening: yes
[07:16] <Nvening_> kk
[07:16] <One2abusE> thanks to komit if he/she is still here your advice sent me down the the right track and my wireless works again.
[07:16] <Pelo> Lobosque,  that was all I could offer,  try the forum or ask again periodicaly , maybe someone will come in who knows
[07:16] <turbolover> i put a dapper draker server install on a sparc clone, and when it boots into the OS, i get some weird moving jaggy distortion type effect on part of the screen, anyone familiar with that?
[07:16] <AndyC1> Odi: try sleep seconds && command
[07:16] <turbolover> i can still read the text
[07:16] <turbolover> but its kinda annoying :)
[07:16] <jadhog> !kazehakase
[07:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kazehakase - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:17] <Lobosque> ok Pelo, thanks :)
[07:17] <albert> what would you recommend? installing windows first and afterwards ubuntu or otherwise?
[07:17] <Odi> AndyC1, how is that
[07:17] <wirelessmonkey> turbolover: Are you using a desktop manager?  If not, it sounds like a hardware issue.
[07:17] <AndyC1> Odi: ?
[07:18] <turbolover> wireless: its not running X at all
[07:18] <Pelo> albert,  windows first then ubuntu that way when grub is installed it will see the windows and add it to the boot menu
[07:18] <AndyC1> Odi: just try filling the field with "sleep (seconds to sleep here) && command"
[07:18] <AndyC1> without quotes
[07:18] <albert> Pelo: kk
[07:18] <turbolover> and it had no problems when solaris was on it, and has no problems in openboot
[07:18] <Odi> oki doki, i will try it
[07:18] <albert> Pelo: as i guessed
[07:18] <sharms> wirelessmonkey, turbolover: I assume it has to do with sparcs needing to use the frame buffer for consoles. I don't have a sparc to test with, but it could be an issue
[07:18] <MarkCh> My PC is connected to 2 networks, one is for the internet, the other to another PC which shares the net connection with my PC.
[07:18] <MarkCh> The net connection is shared using firestarter, but every time I start up my PC, the eth number changes so that I have to set up firestarter to the eth number ubuntu chooses at boot. So at 1 time, the PC I share the net connection to becomes eth1 while at another it is eth2, is there a way to fix this problem so that I could give this network a permanent number, like eth1 perhaps? I never had the problem with eth0 though. Can anybody help? Thank you!
[07:18] <Pelo> albert,  I'm speaking from expereince I did it the other way
[07:19] <albert> Pelo, sounds like an experience :D
[07:19] <sharms> turbolover: best thing to do is read: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/install/sparc/
[07:19] <Pelo> albert,  it would have been easier if windows had been on the same hdd,  I had to remap something , and it took forever to find the instructions
[07:20] <Skaag> what's the deal with openssh-server not allowing my to ssh into the box remotely?
[07:20] <Skaag> my -> me
[07:20] <Nvening_> Ok, i uninstalled frostwire, which automatix installed, but its still saying "Authentication failed - Authenticating the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server."?
[07:20] <sharms> Skaag: there is no deal, it does.
[07:20] <Jay> what would folks install these days: ubuntu, xubuntu, kubuntu ?
[07:20] <Skaag> sharms: it's installed and running but I try to ssh to the box and it just waits there forever
[07:20] <Nvening_> jay, depnds on what you want
[07:20] <Skaag> sharms: it's like it's slightly different than the older 'ssh' service
[07:21] <Jay> want just a good workstation with linux
[07:21] <sharms> Skaag: then it is a firewall issue if you are sure its running.  There is no issue with sshd.
[07:21] <Nvening_> jay, how powerful is the pc??
[07:21] <Pelo> Jay,   between k and u it's a mater of choice between kde and gnome,   x is easier on older machines since xcfe uses less resources
[07:21] <wirelessmonkey> turbolover: if you're getting distortion on the screen.... gah, I know there's a display tool, but i can't locate it atm. Gimme a few.
[07:21] <albert> Pelo, i'm quite screwed too.. i got 4 primary partitions for linux and i never knew about this limitation and my second harddrive gives me a blinking prompt as master... so repartitioning, ofcourse..
[07:21] <Skaag> if I run iptables -L -n it says perhaps my iptables or my kernel need to be upgraded
[07:21] <sharms> Skaag: you can only run it with sudo
[07:22] <Nvening_> jay, if your pc is fast i would use u over k
[07:22] <sharms> Skaag: and by default there isn't a firewall that would block ssh
[07:22] <Skaag> I'm sudo'ed with -s
[07:22] <Skaag> this is a brand new install
[07:22] <Skaag> I think i know what's going on though
[07:22] <Pelo> albert,  I donT' even understand most of what you wrote,  so all I can say is : Best of luck ;-0
[07:22] <Jay> intel dual core 2, 2.13 GHz
[07:22] <Nvening_> cany anyone help??
[07:22] <sharms> Skaag: how about sudo apt-get install ssh
[07:22] <Skaag> I'm booted from the cdrom so it's not the same kernel as the one installed
[07:22] <usser> Jay: dont listen to him kde is the way to go =)
[07:22] <albert> Pelo, thx :D
[07:22] <Nvening_> ye, go with u jay

[07:27] <a8514> ok, but I cant use it because I don't want to user local login
[07:28] <sharms> !hardware | thorlin
[07:28] <ubotu> thorlin: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:28] <a8514> use
[07:28] <a8514> I cant use local login
[07:28] <Pelo> pbx,  look in synaptic, bottom left corner click on status
[07:28] <ethan> thorlin:  I got my broadcom working using ndiswrapper.
[07:28] <thorlin> sharms: Linksys wmp54gs
[07:28] <pbx> Pelo: Can it be done in the shell, e.g. with aptitude?
[07:28] <a8514> I cant use any comand because to use any comand, I have to log in locally
[07:28] <fsckr> k guys if i missed an answer to my question I am sorry.  I was pulled away from the computer
[07:28] <a8514> An X-Terminal is only a terminal.... so.... no commands
[07:29] <thorlin> ethan: I've gone through the ndiswrapper method at least 10 times.  I can't get the thing to work.  I can see the wireless network, but it won't connect.  It is a Linksys AP using WPA.
[07:29] <Pelo> pbx,  probably but I don'T know how,  try man apt   you can probably have a list out put
[07:29] <infidel> a8514, you can run is with cron
[07:29] <a8514> I know it is very simple.... very very simple, but I can't remember
[07:29] <MarkCh> My PC is connected to 2 networks, one is for the internet, the other to another PC which shares the net connection with my PC.
[07:29] <infidel> it
[07:29] <a8514> infidel, may be... but then... mmmm no no
[07:29] <MarkCh> The net connection is shared using firestarter, but every time I start up my PC, the eth number changes so that I have to set up firestarter to the eth number ubuntu chooses at boot. So at 1 time, the PC I share the net connection to becomes eth1 while at another it is eth2, is there a way to fix this problem so that I could give this network a permanent number, like eth1 perhaps? I never had the problem with eth0 though. Can anybody help? Thank you!
[07:29] <pbx> Pelo: Thanks again
[07:29] <fsckr> if I am connected to a share folder on my windows pc what can I do to be able to play my music from there?  I am connected via samba but it will not allow me to play mp3s from that computer
[07:30] <a8514> It is something about the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf or /etc/X11/Xsession.... I'm not sure
[07:30] <ethan> thorlin:  Hmmm... So it looks like the driver is working ok (you can see the network).  I'm using a linksys AP too (right at the moment, as a matter of fact).
[07:30] <dola> ubotu: i can not fund my hardware but i have i computer from last year so can it be anthor problem?
[07:31] <qaldune> dola ubotu is a bot, just in case you didn't know
[07:31] <jackn> nado have you deleted the .gnome folder?
[07:31] <Josesordo> how to create a windows vista & linux network :(
[07:31] <thorlin> ethan: me too, so I know the AP isn't a problem.  I've been through the forums for the last week, reinstalled Ubuntu at least 5 times.  I'm just going crazy.
[07:31] <sharms> dola: Linux runs on almost everything, the best thing in these situations is first: search www.ubuntuforums.org   for your computer, and second google for your computer + linux
[07:31] <Odi> i have some cybercafe software, and I am autostarting it with the session manager, but it starts and stays under the desktop... some idea of how I can change this
[07:31] <Pelo> MarkCh, try asking your question every 30 min or so , or checking the forum,  diffrent ppl are in at different times others may know
[07:31] <mado> I tried to remove gnome-panel-data, gnome-panel and ubuntu-desktop, then reinstall I still have one empty panel ???
[07:31] <mado> Yes I tried to remove .gnome
[07:31] <Falstius> MarkCh: you can specify the 'ethx' in an arguement to the module.  You'd have to add a line to one of the modutils configuration files.  Maybe someone here can fill in the details, or just lookup network card module arguements on the web.
[07:31] <sharms> dola: It is just a suggestion that if you want to run Linux, the best idea is buy hardware that is already confirmed working
[07:31] <mado> do I need to reboot ?
[07:31] <Pelo> mado,  do you want pannels or not  ? jus trying to figure out what to tell you next
[07:32] <dola> qaldunethx now i know that
[07:32] <Pelo> later foks
[07:33] <jackn> nado, IMHO, you shouldn't remove these packages and reinstall. Now that you have removed them, reinstall them. Did you or did you not remove .gnome?
[07:33] <mado> I d' like to restore my mother's gnome desktop with the default 2 panels...
[07:33] <ethan> thorlin:  Sorry to hear about the wifi suckage.  I just did a quick google and found http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174, which is about using broadcom without ndis.  However, can email you my notes on getting things working with ndiswrapper if you'd like.
[07:33] <se7en> guys, do we have step-by-step text for migrating from windows to linux?
[07:34] <mado> I removed the .gnome
[07:34] <Falstius> mado: if you still have one panel, right click on a blank area and select new panel.
[07:34] <mado> I now have an empty panel
[07:34] <jusama14> Hello, I can't get sound working on my computer. Can anyone help?
[07:35] <thorlin> ethan: i think I've gone through that posting but they are all starting to get jumbled together.  I'd love your notes thought
[07:35] <walkintome> hi all. whenever I open terminal, firefox, or most programs, they open up on the top right corner. Is there any way to get them to open in the center fo the screen?
[07:35] <Smygis> mado, rightklick on it and add whatever you want
[07:35] <jackn> nado, good. After you reinstall all the packages which you have removed, no , no need to reboot. Just restart gdm :  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart. But first you must reinstall all the packages you have removed. Without them, of course, you don't have panels.
[07:35] <ethan> thorlin:  OK.  Send me mail at ethan@ethanbrown.org and I'll send you what I've got.

[07:36] <flintx> Hey i just got my old P1 to work the problem is would ubuntu work on a pentium 1 (100mhz), 16mbram, 1gb Hdd ?

[07:36] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[07:36] <jusama14> Hello, I can't get sound working on my computer. Can anyone help?
[07:36] <jackn> nado, so: don't reboot. Reinstall all the packages. Restart gdm: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart.
[07:36] <thorlin> ethan: just sent the email.  thanks.
[07:36] <mado> Each time I add a new panel the old one disapeers (sorry I m french...)
[07:37] <turbolover> crap
[07:37] <walkintome> anyone know how ot get windows (firefox, terminal etc) to open in the center of the screen instead of directly in the top left corner
[07:37] <flintx> Hey i just got my old P1 to work the problem is would ubuntu work on a pentium 1 (100mhz), 16mbram, 1gb Hdd ?
[07:37] <oo_seven> hello
[07:37] <jackn> nado parlons francais. Mais tu me reponds pas.
[07:37] <ethan> OK.  Signing off
[07:37] <l3mr> flintx: hmm better t
[07:37] <pipegeek> Howdy.  I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to get smbclient to attempt to connect to port 139 by default (instead of 445).  When I attempt to connect to a certain server (which has port 445 firewalled) from gnome, I have to wait for the attempted connection to port 445 to time out, which takes forever.  I'm using feisty.
[07:37] <sanityx> flintx, no it wont, but xubuntu might
[07:37] <l3mr> flintx better try damnsmalllinux
[07:37] <mado> Ok pour le franais
[07:37] <atlas95> hello
[07:37] <matthew1429> flintx: check out xubuntu
[07:37] <oo_seven> im using the new ubuntu and everything is working fine and i really like it!! my only problem is, that my hauppauge pvr 150 wintv tv-card is not working
[07:37] <jusama14> Hello, I can't get sound working on my computer. Can anyone help?
[07:37] <walkintome> flintx: id say most likely yes, but you will not be able to get compiz or any effects running.
[07:38] <oo_seven> any ideas if its possible to use my tv card, and where to start?
[07:38] <flintx> compiz ?
[07:38] <walkintome> flintx: im running ubuntu now with compiz and im using about 256mb of ram
[07:38] <atlas95> I need help to configure my 5.1 sound
[07:38] <sanityx> walkintome, or any applications
[07:38] <atlas95> i have a asus p4c800-e deluxe mainboard

[07:38] <sanityx> flintx, Download and install Xubuntu, trust me.
[07:38] <atlas95> could you help me please
[07:38] <walkintome> sanityx: yes thats a good possibility
[07:38] <jackn> nado, suis donc les deux etapes : reinstallation de tous les logiciels que tu as enleves (ne les enleve pas a l'avenir).
[07:38] <soundray> pipegeek: 'man smbclient' mentions a -p port option...
[07:38] <flintx> whats the difference?
[07:38] <matthew1429> oo_seven: I think something called mythTV is what you are looking for
[07:38] <mado> oui oui c'est rinstall
[07:38] <mado> excuse
[07:39] <pipegeek> soundray: right, but I'm trying to connect through gnome.  Command-line options aren't an option
[07:39] <jackn> nado, puis redemarrage de gnome: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:39] <ivanhoe> how can i uncomprres a .rar file in parts_
[07:39] <walkintome> sanityx: yeah, the 16mb ram just hit me. no way
[07:39] <^Ocean^> is there a nice lil program to set up Twinview for linux...   I remember havin one at one point, but dont remember the name of it
[07:39] <jackn> nado c'est bien maintenant tu reponds
[07:39] <pbx> 16MB?  I'd go for Debian and screen :)
[07:39] <fiber> hello, i'm running ubuntu amd64 (i JUST instsalled ubuntu for the first time, i'm a gentoo user), and i was wondering what the best method would be for installing 32 bit applications (more specifically a 32bit .deb package for skype)
[07:39] <atlas95> mado et jackn pourquoi ne causez vous pas en fr sur le chan fr ?
[07:39] <pipegeek> soundray: unless it's possible to specify the command gnome-vfs uses for smb:// URLs
[07:39] <ubuntu> Hello
[07:39] <jackn> nado tu as redemarre gnome comme precise plus haut ?
[07:40] <ubuntu> How do I make beryl look like on YouTube??
[07:40] <kane77> fiber, you can force architecture
[07:40] <sanityx> ubuntu try installing it first
[07:40] <soundray> pipegeek: it's probably not smbclient anyway - it uses 139 by default
[07:40] <kinections> trying to install ubuntu on a machine with raid and it seems to be freezing up before getting to the liveCD desktop. Is there anything that needs to be done (kernel args?) for it to boot correctly?
[07:40] <Possum> ubuntu, tweak beryl-settings and install kiba-dock :P
[07:40] <flintx> sanityx does xubuntu come with kde/gmone ?
[07:40] <peippo> Hi. I have a problem starting my Ubuntu Edgy GUI (X?) After the login screen I get this msg, and a black screen for a few seconds, then get thrown back to the login. "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon. Unable to determine the address of the message bus". Any ideas what to do? :)
[07:40] <walkintome> anyone know how to get applications to open in the center fo the screen instead of shoved in the top left corner?
[07:40] <fiber> kane77: cool, is that in an env variable or what?
[07:40] <Falstius> flintx: it comes with xfce (hence the x)
[07:41] <pipegeek> soundray: not on my machine it doesn't.  When I run it from the command line, it times out twice trying to connect to 128.148.254.10:445 before it finally successfully connects to port 139
[07:41] <jusama14> Hello, I can't get sound working on my computer. Can anyone help?
[07:41] <jackn> atlas95 c'est ou le channel francais? Il est venu ici pour de l'aide, et il a dit qu'il avait mal en anglais.
[07:41] <kane77> flintx, it comes with xfce
[07:41] <flintx> is it like kde
[07:41] <fr0nk> does anyone know about the update policy of ubuntu?
[07:41] <pbx> !sound
[07:41] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[07:41] <fsckr> i am trying to play mp3s from my windows machine but ubuntu will not play them.  I am connected to windows just fine I have read/write access through samba.  What do I need to do to allow ubuntu to play these mp3s from my windows machine?
[07:41] <mado> je me retrouve avec 1 panel vide
[07:41] <pbx> jusama14: ^^
[07:41] <pipegeek> soundray: unless I specify port=139, in which case it works right away
[07:41] <jmb_14587> hi everyone.. I'm running ubuntu server 6.06 on two production servers. I've been running apt-get upgrade to maintain regular security updates. Everything is work well at the moment. Is there any point for me to move up and compile a newer version of the kernel? I'm assuming that I'd have to obtain vanilla source and do a manual compilation? I'm also presuming that this could potentially render some apt packages unstable? Any advice?
[07:41] <kane77> fiber, you use dpkg --force-architecture -i packagename
[07:41] <fr0nk> gimp is exploitable with malformed pictures
[07:41] <Falstius> mado: jackn: #ubuntu-fr
[07:41] <jusama14> pbx, yes?
[07:41] <atlas95> sur ubuntu-fr jackn
[07:41] <mado> je peux continuer en anglais ;)
[07:41] <atlas95> #ubuntu-fr
[07:41] <atlas95> :)
[07:41] <jusama14> pbx, sorry didn't read it
[07:41] <PriceChild> jmb_14587: no reason at all to upgrade the kernel if its working fine
[07:41] <fiber> kane77: thanks alot for the help!
[07:42] <jackn> nado OK, no problem. Did you restart gnome?
[07:42] <PriceChild> jmb_14587: just keep "sudo apt-get update", "sudo apt-get upgrade"ing and you'll be fine
[07:42] <mado> yes restarted gnome but still have an empty panel ...
[07:42] <jmb_14587> PriceChild: thanks for the advice
[07:42] <Cerda> i need help with network =///
[07:43] <PriceChild> jmb_14587: we can't support you on custom kernels. However if you type "/msg ubotu kernel" it'll tell you how to make them.
[07:43] <kane77> fiber, but use it as rare as you can.. it can cause problems.. (it should work though) you have to install the ia32 packages
[07:43] <pbx> When I log in if I get a dialog saying something like "you are not allowed access to this system configuration"... what do I do about that?  I dismiss it and it goes away, but... weird.
[07:43] <mado> when I add a new panel , the old one is destroyed
[07:43] <jackn> nado, can you make sure through synaptic that you have all the packages that you have removed?
[07:43] <drummer> I have been trying for three days to get help making an HP 4050 print under Feisty.  No one ever seems to respond.  Please help.
[07:43] <walkintome> anyone know how to get applications to open in the center fo the screen?
[07:43] <PriceChild> jmb_14587: the official ubuntu kernels will stay updated with security fixes.
[07:43] <jmb_14587> PriceChild: I was also thinking of moving to 7.05 or even 6.10 but I don't want to ruin this setup since it's working
[07:43] <mado> ok I try this ...
[07:43] <soundray> pipegeek: you would think that this kind of thing can be configured in gnome...
[07:43] <kane77> walkintome, devilspie could do that
[07:43] <pipegeek> soundray: Can't seem to find a way
[07:43] <jmb_14587> PriceChild: I'll give that a go just for reference
[07:43] <michaelpo> jrib: i think i will use my office win98 pc to format the hdd tomorrow..... thanks for the help... i'm getting some zzzz now... 142am...
[07:43] <PriceChild> jmb_14587: dapper will be supported past edgy/feisty... "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"
[07:43] <jackn> nado, please list them.
[07:44] <jrib> michaelpo: gparted not working?
[07:44] <jmb_14587> PriceChild: my thought exactly.
[07:44] <jmb_14587> PriceChild: thanks again
[07:44] <jusama14> pbx, it succeeds and it is not mute
[07:44] <PriceChild> no problem :)
[07:44] <michaelpo> working... on my other hdd... not this one... maybe bad sector or some defect....
[07:44] <fiber> kane77: hrmm, it's asking for a bunch of other dependancies so maybe this isn't the best route... i was thinking about setting up a 32bit chroot enviroment, you think that would do it?
[07:44] <Lordveda> hello world
[07:44] <kinections> what's the user name and password for KDM on kubuntu? It did not automatically log in...
[07:44] <pbx> jusama14: That's the extent of my knowledge then... sorry
[07:44] <pipegeek> soundray: Can't specify the port after the server (ie, smb://foo.bar.com:139/), as gnome doesn't understand it
[07:44] <jackn> lordveda hello
[07:45] <kane77> fiber, yes that could do it (and it is the good/better way around...)
[07:45] <jrib> michaelpo: ah, I see
[07:45] <Lordveda> I have noticed that any usb stick that I insert in my PC is mounted as root, is there a way to make it mounted as my user account???
[07:45] <fiber> kane77: i assume your on 64bit too... what do you do for your 32bit apps?
[07:45] <agresor> My video drivers are broken
[07:45] <agresor> how to fix them ?
[07:45] <mado> gnome-panel, gnome-panel-desktop and ubuntu-desktop are installed ...
[07:45] <agresor> I use ATI RADEN 9200
[07:46] <jackn> nado, excellent.
[07:46] <mado> If i try to add an applet the panel is destroyed
[07:46] <kane77> fiber, I try to minimise usage of 32-b apps (or compile them)
[07:46] <Beastage> whats a good music player for linux?
[07:46] <soundray> pipegeek: can't find anything either, sorry
[07:46] <Lordveda> Beastage: many
[07:46] <drummer>  I have been trying for three days to get help making an HP 4050 print under Feisty.  No one ever seems to respond.  Please help. (2nd request today)
[07:46] <pipegeek> soundray: thanks anyhow
[07:46] <kane77> fiber, so far I refuse to install 32-bit firefox with flash so I use gnash :)
[07:46] <Lordveda> including amarok,
[07:46] <pipegeek> anyone else?
[07:46] <Beastage> amarok
[07:46] <Beastage> thats the one
[07:46] <jackn> nado, that's all I know. At this point, I would try reinstalling the gnome desktop, or looking for an answer on the forums, which I'm doing myself now.
[07:46] <soundray> pipegeek: you'll have to re-ask
[07:47] <pipegeek> soundray: okie dokie.  Thanks
[07:47] <Lordveda> Beastage: there are many that has an interface similar to it
[07:47] <fiber> kane77: oh yea, you know it... i think running firefox 32bit is the BIGGEST waste, expecially for such a resource hungry program
[07:47] <u2k7> how do i change the ubuntu logout dialog to the standard gnome one (hibernate and stuff never worked for me anyway) ?
[07:47] <Lordveda> Beastage: including Exaile
[07:47] <soundray> drummer: how is it connected?
[07:47] <Beastage> is there a last.fm plugin for amarok?
[07:47] <ubuntu> How do I change my ip in kubuntu??
[07:47] <Lordveda> Exaile and Listen project work with Gnome
[07:47] <mado> I retry the operation ...
[07:48] <drummer> soundray: direct connection via parallell
[07:48] <R3ddy> I just installed RealPlayer, but when i play files, there is no sound. any fixes?
[07:48] <Lordveda> Beastage: search the softwares in synaptic for amarok plugin
[07:48] <soundray> drummer: are you going through the gnome printer setup?
[07:48] <Lordveda> seems that no one can answer my question
[07:48] <pipegeek> So, I'm trying to connect to an smb server from gnome.  Port 445 is firewalled between here and there.  Sadly, it seems gnome-vfs (and smbclient and smbmount) has to time out connecting to port 445 *twice* before it'll even attempt port 139.  Does anyone know how to force gnome-vfs to use port 139?
[07:48] <pipegeek> I'm using feisty, btw
[07:49] <Lordveda> well is there a faq to read in order to solve my problem?
[07:49] <pipegeek> If I was just going from the command line, I could specify port=139.  Sadly, that's not an option here
[07:49] <Beastage> Lordveda:  what you need?
[07:49] <fowlduck-> evertone, please view this with great joy: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/dell-to-offer-ubuntu
[07:49] <jackn> nado, here are the packages that come with gnome-desktop: gnome-desktop-environment, gnome-desktop-data,  libgnome-desktop-dev,  libgnome-desktop-2
[07:49] <fowlduck-> http://www.ubuntu.com/news/dell-to-offer-ubuntu
[07:49] <drummer> soundray: yes, the printer is detected an d appears to install but nothing prin ts, If i change the port to lpt1 it tries to print but errors out with an incorrect tray and paper type (which are not in the current configuration!)
[07:49] <ubuntu> How do I get rid of beryl (without removing kde)?
[07:49] <fowlduck-> dell is now going to offer ubuntu as its linux desktop
[07:50] <fowlduck-> niiiiice
[07:50] <Lordveda> I need to make usb sticks to be automounted via my account not through root account
[07:50] <jackn> nado, you could go sudo aptitude reinstall gnome-desktop
[07:50] <PurpZeY> Do I need to do anything specific to mount my pen-drive into Ubuntu
[07:50] <R3ddy> how do i make the sound work in RealPlayer?
[07:50] <Beastage> Lordveda:  7.04 does it auto for me
[07:50] <soundray> drummer: lpt1 is DOS-speak. What's the real device name where your printer is detected?
[07:50] <Lordveda> It does but not for the user
[07:51] <Lordveda> it auto mounts it with root permissions
[07:51] <soundray> Lordveda: what kind of filesystem is on the stick?
[07:52] <Lordveda> soundray: fat32
[07:52] <PurpZeY> Lordveda: You are looking to mount a pen-drive?
[07:52] <turbolover> hmm, ubuntu doesnt seem to like my type 6 sun keyboard, it works, but keys like ctrl do not
[07:52] <Lordveda> PurpZeY: usb mass storage
[07:52] <R3ddy> please.. there is no sound from my realplayer :(
[07:52] <Lordveda> usb flash

[07:53] <danm2007> Beastage  yeah I used a program called "Envy" to install it .
[07:53] <Lordveda> PurpZeY: It auto recognizes it but mounts it using root permissions.

[07:55] <geniusvicks> soundray, no, say if I wanted firefox to run when the desktop wuz started, how do I do it?

[07:55] <Lordveda> PurpZeY: you can't manipulate things on the disk by deleting unneeded files or folders
[07:55] <soundray> geniusvicks: System-Preferences-Session-Startup programs
[07:55] <geniusvicks> soundray thanks
[07:56] <soundray> drummer: run a 'ls -lrt' to see what the most recently changed file is in there (last line). The error log?
[07:56] <PurpZeY> Lordveda: But I'd be able to just put it in the USB slot and read files without damaging the data? and if so, what is the safe way to disconnect it?
[07:56] <danm2007> Beastage Any ideas ?

[08:00] <delire> danm2007: are you running Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:00] <mhoney> I have googled for the last two days and am stumped.  My ubuntu box can see three of the domains on my network and the computers in those domains but when I try to browse the workgroup I get The folder contents could not be displayed
[08:00] <danm2007> delire yes
[08:00] <jackn> delire sorry have no idea but sounds ambitious (700Mb).
[08:00] <delire> danm2007: go to System->Administration->Restricted Driver Manager and enable the driver for your card.
[08:00] <unwiredbrain> Hi guys! Is there anyone who knows ALSA well?
[08:01] <blokje> howdy you all
[08:01] <danm2007> delire ok thanks
[08:01] <soundray> mhoney: sounds like it's not authenticating to the workgroup computers properly
[08:01] <delire> jackn: i was joking really ;)
[08:01] <ubuntu> How much space does Ubuntu need?
[08:01] <jackn> delire ok, you see how much I know...
[08:01] <IgorSobreira> anybody knows how do i configure the "scroll" of my touchpad of the notebook?
[08:01] <drummer> soundray: yes I am according to the user gui, just typing "groups" I cannot tell from that.
[08:01] <blokje> isn't there a ppc version of ubuntu any longer?
[08:02] <mhoney> soundray: I have a couple computers in a group called mshome and they can be browsed fine.  What does it authenticate against?
[08:02] <spikeb> blokje: not an officially supported one, no. there's a community supported version now.
[08:02] <blokje> spikeb: you have a download url for me ?
[08:02] <spikeb> blokje: yes. give me a second.

[08:03] <_Steve_> hi folks, does ubuntu have LVS and failover?
[08:04] <jackn> Igor, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Synaptics_Touchpad worked for me, and also, did you look up ubuntuguide.com?
[08:04] <spikeb> blokje: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/
[08:04] <delire> soundray: hehe there's an example of rhetorical script writing

[08:04] <blokje> spikeb: you are great.. thanks
[08:04] <vaio> no one idea?
[08:04] <spikeb> blokje: you're welcome :)
[08:04] <soundray> mhoney: the password you set on the sharing folder, I think. But I'm not that great with smb, maybe someone else can help. Re-ask your question if all else fails.
[08:04] <vaio> how to install a ati 340M card?
[08:04] <nu> vaio: do you run kubuntu on a sony vaio ?
[08:04] <IgorSobreira> anybody knows how do i configure the "scroll" of my touchpad of the notebook?

[08:05] <vaio> i run xubuntu on a sony vaio yes
[08:05] <nuu> damn...im looking for someone running KDE on a vaio

[08:05] <nuu> anybody knows any ?
[08:05] <soundray> delire: I'll remember that expression :)

[08:06] <vaio> delire, there is nothing to enable :(
[08:06] <mhoney> Can someone please help me with a Samba problem.  I have a network here at work with 3 domains and two workgroups.  I can browse all the domains and the MSHOME workgroup using nautilus but when I try to browse the workgroup called "WORKGROUP" I get "The folder contents could not be displayed".
[08:06] <delire> vaio: oh.. 'lspci | grep VGA'

[08:08] <mhoney> I just moved a workstation from the WORKGROUP group to the MSHOME group and I can browse it fine.  is there an inherent problem with the name WORKGROUP in samba?

[08:09] <spikeb> phaethon: downloading and installing with the amd64 cd image.
[08:09] <delire> vaio: hmm, there should've been an open source driver for that card installed by default.

[08:12] <ziggy23> I am trying to upgrade to feisty fawn from edgy eft.  The upgrade downloaded and died with 1 minute left of installing.  I had graphical corruption and when I rebooted I got a "Kernel panic" message.  How do I recover?
[08:12] <drummer> soundray:  I just received a phone call and must leave immediately, I'm sorry especially now that I'm getting assistance - I will be back in about 2.5-3 hours, will you still be on the forum then?
[08:12] <delire> vaio: what comes next?
[08:12] <vaio> nothing
[08:12] <pike_> ziggy23: does sudo dist-upgrade run ok?
[08:12] <pike_> ziggy23: well i guess not if kernel panic :)
[08:13] <delire> vaio: you typed in that command and hit ENTER?
[08:13] <ziggy23> I am a newbie pike but a windows veteran
[08:13] <soundray> drummer: probably not, but try again occasionally. I think you have a directory permissions problem. Purging and reinstalling cups *may* help. Laters!
[08:13] <disinterested> windows lol
[08:13] <ziggy23> I did not upgrade through terminal.

[08:15] <rBo3Db> ...can someone advise what to do?
[08:15] <ziggy23> How about wiping the ubuntu partition and reinstalling?  I have a 7.04 CD.
[08:15] <delire> vaio: and paste the output in this channel as long as it's no more than one line.
[08:15] <pike_> ziggy23: if you dont have any info you need that would be best
[08:15] <soundray> rBo3Db: did you complete the upgrade?

[08:19] <vaio> sure
[08:19] <vaio> gimme a sec
[08:19] <soundray> wilson: that's not recommended. Do a full upgrade, or stick with what you have.
[08:19] <delire> zheying: it is isn't it ;)
[08:19] <soundray> !upgrade > wilson, please read ubotu's private message

[08:20] <sscssc> 
[08:21] <MukiEX> You know what the best part about Ubuntu is? It takes 15-20 minutes to install from scratch on a mid-range system. =3
[08:21] <soundray> wilson: make a parallel fresh install of 7.04 and see if it surprises you :)
[08:21] <wilson> soundray, alright i'll boot it off of my iPod. Thanks :)
[08:21] <spikeb> MukiEX: and it's mostly ready after install to use right away.
[08:21] <MukiEX> If you have your /home folder on a seperate partition that makes re-installing practically free.
[08:21] <soundray> MukiEX: your midrange = my high-end :)
[08:21] <HymnToLife> MukiEX, 20 minutes to install is far too much imo
[08:21] <walkintome> hi all. i just installed the msttcore fonts and restarted x, but now my fonts look terrible in firefox and i dont know how to fix it. Does anyone know how to improve font rendering in feisty?
[08:21] <MukiEX> soundray : Sempron 2200 ;)
[08:22] <tlacuache> I just got an H700 bluetooth headset. I followed the directions linked to from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup, and everything worked fine at first (scan, entering in the pin number, etc.). I can connect to the headset fine using btsco, and I can try to start a call in Skype (or to play an mp3 in xmms), and I hear the speaker on my ear "turn on", but then my whole computer locks up. No keyboard or mouse response, nothing. What can I do?
[08:22] <vaio> delire, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18643/
[08:22] <tlacuache> I should also note that when the computer locks, my CAPS LOCK indicator light blinks like crazy.
[08:22] <asos> firefox's mozilla plugin stop working for anyone else when they upgraded to feisty?
[08:22] <soundray> MukiEX: fast CD drive I bet
[08:22] <Kai-> HymnToLife then you seem like a damnsmall linux person ;P
[08:22] <tlacuache> I tried to SSH into my machine, and that was unresponsive, as well.
[08:22] <MukiEX> Especially when 1. you set all the install info BEFORE it does all the copying (compare to windows' DURING) and 2. you can use it WHILE it installs ;)
[08:22] <soundray> asos: plugin for what?
[08:22] <tlacuache> I also tried the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=426828. I was actually able to record audio using the microphone of the headset, but again, whenever I tried to send any audio TO the headset, I get the kernel panic (at least I think that's what the blinking CAPS lock button means).
[08:22] <asos> errr.  mplayer
[08:22] <asos> sorry
[08:22] <spikeb> hmm
[08:22] <spikeb> i had issues with totem-xine, but not totem-gstreamer or mplayer
[08:23] <MukiEX> soundray : My recommendation? LG DVD-RW drive. Buy it online, they're cheaper AND more reliable than the retail version. $30 at newegg, best DVD recorder you'll ever use.
[08:23] <HymnToLife> Kai, not really, but the default Ubuntu install does not suit my needs at all, so it takes me about 1h30 to get Ubuntu running the way I want it to
[08:23] <soundray> MukiEX: full ack. I've got one.
[08:23] <MukiEX> Every computer in this house has one, some for a few years, and they've yet to fail me, save for like, 3 discs out of 300, and two of them were due to errors the DVD drive couldn't do anything about.
[08:23] <walkintome> i just installed the msttcore fonts and restarted x, but now my fonts look terrible in firefox and i dont know how to fix it. Does anyone know how to improve font rendering in feisty?
[08:23] <HymnToLife> which is definitely too much
[08:23] <delire> vaio: it's my belief that if you changed "ati" in line 96 to "radeon" and rebooted, you might have fast 3D acceleration. it's a risk though, you'll need to know how to change it back from the command line if you get locked out of a display.
[08:23] <MukiEX> ack?
[08:24] <wallen> hi all, I'm having some trouble with X.org and a via unichrome (km400) graphics chip - can anyone give me a hand?
[08:24] <naoise> Someone PLEASE help me install printer drivers...i'm in a huge rush and its finals :(
[08:24] <naoise> i have the files downloaded, but i dont know how to install them yet
[08:24] <MukiEX> naoise : Linux? HP printer?
[08:24] <edisch> re
[08:24] <soundray> MukiEX: roger, acknowledge, affirmative, yes
[08:24] <MukiEX> naoise : What kind of files are they?
[08:24] <MukiEX> Ah. =3
[08:24] <HymnToLife> and anyway, as far as I'm concerned, Ubuntu's installer is just "partition and wait while I install some random junk on your drive"
[08:24] <vaio> delire,  i should be able to change it back with sudo -i nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf right?
[08:24] <aunes> is there a *good* wireless tool for notebooks? I need it to find and connect to available networks.
[08:24] <naoise> MukiEX, rpm
[08:24] <delire> vaio: nice one. exactly.
[08:24] <AndyC1> aunes: network-manager
[08:24] <aunes> Andy: Yea?
[08:25] <MukiEX> I literally timed Ubuntu's copying portion of the install. It was like literally, 18 minutes on my rig.
[08:25] <AndyC1> should come with feisty
[08:25] <MukiEX> naoise : sudo apt-get install alien
[08:25] <aunes> I'll have to check it out then.
[08:25] <aunes> ahh. I need to upgrade. Gonna go do that now, then.
[08:25] <Juhaz> not that I disagree with the suggestion, but retail or online, it's the same drive. how exactly does not putting it into a shiny box and bundling less software make it more reliable?
[08:25] <walkintome> i just installed the msttcore fonts and restarted x, but now my fonts look terrible in firefox and i dont know how to fix it. Does anyone know how to improve font rendering in feisty?
[08:25] <MukiEX> run xterm or gnome-terminal via the run box (alt+f2 default)
[08:25] <aa^way> how to turn root file to user file, so i could delete it as i am user?
[08:25] <AndyC1> speaking of network-manager, anyone else having trouble installing new icons for it?
[08:25] <aa^way> i have sudo access, i dont want to do sudo rm
[08:25] <delire> vaio: no guarantees it will work, but you can check it with 'glxinfo | grep direct' when you're back in X. it should've been setup for you by default. no idea why not.
[08:25] <naoise> MukiEX, k
[08:26] <MukiEX> naoise : do you know your way around the terminal? (e.g. moving to the correct folder)
[08:26] <naoise> MukiEX, its on desktop
[08:26] <MukiEX> because eventually you wanna run alien on that RPM file.
[08:26] <MukiEX> alien ~/Desktop/(driver name).rpm
[08:26] <ildrko> hi
[08:26] <vaio> delire,  ill give it a try
[08:26] <MukiEX> naoise : What kind of printer do you have?
[08:27] <naoise> MukiEX, canon ip6600d
[08:27] <soundray> Juhaz: I think it's plausible. On the retail product, they risk losing a customer who might otherwise have bought another drive next year. In the OEM market, they risk losing a customer who buys kilo-quantities.
[08:27] <MukiEX> arrggg, bao, brb
[08:27] <awk_> in what channel should i party about dell-ubuntu thing?
[08:27] <MukiEX> it doesn't auto-detect it, naoise? brb
[08:27] <tlacuache> nobody has any idea about my bluetooth prob?
[08:27] <facugaich> How do I set refresh rates in Xorg.conf?
[08:27] <naoise> MukiEX, it does, but it doesn't have the proper model number
[08:27] <turbolover> !minicom
[08:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about minicom - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:28] <danshtr> hi all, how do i sync two directories?
[08:28] <vaio> brb
[08:28] <UnluckyMike> naoise: the canon driver rpm files require some extra setup when using alien
[08:28] <UnluckyMike> they copy to wrong folders for some reason
[08:28] <naoise> UnluckyMike, how so?
[08:28] <ston> Witom
[08:28] <soundray> naoise: considering your urgency, I would recommend buying the turboprint driver. Download the .deb, run 'sudo xtpsetup', install the keyfile, and print away.
[08:29] <ston> if i want to eject my  cdrom i type : eject cdrom? , but how to do it in the opposite way?
[08:29] <jadhog> ston: try eject -t cdrom
[08:30] <ston> jadhog: thanks it is working:)
[08:30] <krishghosh> does anyone have any idea of a chat client that supports yahoo with webcam ?
[08:30] <UnluckyMike> naoise: turboprint was the only solution for my canon mp600. They proprietary drivers from canon had major loss of quality with ubuntu for some reason.
[08:31] <naoise> UnluckyMike, I have the ppd file ...but it isn't installing properly
[08:31] <UnluckyMike> yeah
[08:31] <georgy> krishghosh : kopete ?
[08:31] <UnluckyMike> naoise: the canon driver use a backend in cups but wont work right in ubuntu.
[08:31] <soundray> naoise: I forgot 'sudo dpkg -i  	turboprint_1.95-2_i386.deb' (or amd64 as the case may be)
[08:32] <krishghosh> thanks georgy ... tried kopete but not working ... may be I am doing something wrong ?
[08:32] <Skaag> I want to install daemontools (svscan), I've created /etc/event.d/svscan with the correct content but when I run: start svscan it says unknown job
[08:32] <naoise> soundray, i can email it, i guess it shouldn't matter
[08:32] <Skaag> how do I fix this?
[08:32] <georgy> krishghosh,: maybe behind a router with firewll ?
[08:32] <soundray> naoise: your finals paper?
[08:32] <kjackson> How can I list items alphabetically in kmenu?
[08:32] <georgy> *firewall
[08:33] <krishghosh> georgy : yes, proxy server, but gaim works perfectly
[08:33] <georgy> krishghosh : then i don't know ! sorry
[08:33] <naoise> soundray, ya...i dont have cash in my checking right now
[08:34] <naoise> soundray, typical of a college student right?
[08:34] <UnluckyMike> naoise: what was the model of your printer
[08:34] <krishghosh> georgy: thanks
[08:34] <naoise> UnluckyMike, ip6600D...supposedly it works perfect
[08:35] <soundray> naoise: anyway, good luck with your printer and more so with your submission.
[08:35] <naoise> soundray, heh thanks time to leave
[08:35] <monio> can you please tell me how to restart the GUI only?
[08:35] <UnluckyMike> naoise: sent you a private message
[08:35] <spikeb> monio: control alt backspace
[08:35] <monio> thx a lot
[08:35] <spikeb> no problem.
[08:36] <okzx> ?
[08:36] <fsckr> hey guys im trying to mount a samba share in fstab by following this site http://www.debianadmin.com/mount-network-file-systems-nfssamba-in-ubuntu.html it seems relatively easy but when i sudo mount -a after editing fstab theres an error in line 15 can someone take a peek and tell me if something is wrong? http://paste.uni.cc/15046

[08:37] <sdf> and i try to install it

[08:37] <krishghosh> how does remote access work in ubuntu ? can a pc using win xp be accessed through remote access?
[08:37] <sdf> how can i solve this problem
[08:37] <spikeb> hmm
[08:38] <spikeb> krishghosh: been wondering that myself.
[08:38] <UnluckyMike> naoise: any luck with your printer
[08:39] <krishghosh> spikeb: win xp to win xp works well ... using default win xp tool but was trying to get a fix to connect my ubuntu pc at home to win xp pc at work.. no luck yet
[08:39] <spikeb> hmm
[08:39] <fsckr> bump
[08:39] <spikeb> krishghosh: if you come across a solution and i'm here, let me know.
[08:40] <Pelo> krishghosh,  you are using samba right ? ( I apologise I just joinned in)
[08:40] <krishghosh> spikeb : sure
[08:40] <krishghosh> pelo : yes
[08:40] <Pelo> k , just checking
[08:41] <krishghosh> pelo: not getting full access though, just file transfer
[08:41] <moosa> will XCB replace xlib in the future?
[08:41] <vaio> delire, it seems like it worked
[08:41] <axbard> Hi im trying to install steam but I think there is a problem with my wine..... I have tryied to reinstall it but the problems is still there..... fixme:ntdll:NtQuerySecurityObject (0x78,0x00000007,0x521848,0x0000f000,0x33e71c
[08:41] <vaio> how can i check it?
[08:41] <pharuils> fsckr, I had a similar problem, it was down to the space in My Documents, i think you need to replace the space with \040, so you should get //xp/My\040Documents
[08:42] <Pelo> krishghosh,  I thnk samba is just for transfer, if you want to take controle of the winxp pc from your ubuntu box you need to use something else,   not sure what,  check in here  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[08:42] <fsckr> pharuils, whats the 040?
[08:42] <Qj> i got some ubuntu questions who can i pm ???
[08:42] <krishghosh> pelo, spikeb : did you guys try no-ip.com ? or something like that ?
[08:42] <Pelo> axbard,   the lovely ppl in #winehq can probably help you with that
[08:42] <fsckr> ill try it thx pharuils
[08:42] <Pelo> krishghosh,  I donT knw what that is
[08:43] <moosa> does XCB have any chance of replacing xlib?
[08:43] <Possum> Qj, just ask the question >.>
[08:43] <Qj> i got a laptop with no cd or floppy drive
[08:43] <krishghosh> pelo: ok
[08:43] <Qj> i want to install ubuntu on it
[08:43] <Qj> how :P
[08:43] <Qj> ??
[08:43] <moosa> usb drive
[08:43] <J-_> !install > Qj
[08:44] <annagiorgia> hi all
[08:44] <krishghosh> QJ: directly from the net
[08:44] <Qj> ?
[08:44] <moosa> or by a usb drive
[08:44] <Qj> moosa can i pm you?
[08:44] <Pelo> !install > Qj  check your pm windows for a link to several install methods one of them might do for you
[08:44] <pharuils> fsckr,  i think its another code for a space, but its been a while since I needed to fix it so cant remember properly
[08:44] <fsckr> didnt' work anywho but thank you very much for replying
[08:44] <moosa> QJ: i am not good at booting from usb flash drives
[08:45] <Qj> hmm ok
[08:45] <Qj> who is then??
[08:45] <moosa> besides i am a newbie
[08:45] <pharuils> fsckr, ok, sorry about that then. i'll have another think.
[08:45] <fsckr> np ty much
[08:45] <Qj> wheh
[08:45] <annagiorgia> If i press on switch user will the connection close?
[08:46] <turbolover> hey what can i do if some how i entered in the wrong password too many times for my user and it gets locked out?
[08:46] <moosa> where do i ask about programming related topics?
[08:46] <ikonia> turbolover, there isn't a "lock out" policy set by default
[08:46] <ikonia> moosa, in a channel related to the language
[08:46] <jpjacobs> moosa, depends on what language (for example there is #perl...)
[08:46] <moosa> what if its a library
[08:46] <Pelo> moosa,  you can try asking here and if needed you'll be redirected to the proper resource
[08:46] <sogrady> anybody available to help get an USB flash drive mounted as a CDROM?
[08:47] <Possum> turbolover, reboot, edit your boot options and add 'init=/bin/bash' to the end of the line... that'll boot directly into bash
[08:47] <turbolover>   ikonia: well, my password no longer works
[08:47] <ikonia> turbolover, I find that very strange
[08:47] <Pelo> moosa,  you can try googling the lib for definitions and technical documentation
[08:47] <jpjacobs> sogrady, what's the problem with it getting mounted as usbstick?
[08:47] <Possum> turbolover, and you'll have root access... from there type 'su - yourusername' then type 'passwd'
[08:47] <Possum> err
[08:47] <Possum> no, just type 'passwd yourusername'
[08:48] <jpjacobs> turbolover, tried looking at numlock/shiftlock... passwords are case sensitive
[08:48] <moosa> xlib hardly haves any
[08:48] <sogrady> jpjacobs: followed the instructions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick, but refuses to mount ../sdc1 (where the device is mounted, according to dmesg)
[08:48] <ikonia> jpjacobs, thats the best advice !
[08:48] <sogrady> Mounting...failed: No such device
[08:49] <jpjacobs> sogrady, what does dmesg say if you insert the drive?
[08:49] <Qj> anyone speaking dutch to explain me something???
[08:49] <ikonia> !nl >qj
[08:49] <pike_> sogrady: also maybe paste the mount command you used
[08:49] <jpjacobs> Qj, there is #ubuntu-nl
[08:49] <moosa> does XCB community have a irc channel?
[08:49] <georgy> sogrady : try lsusb to know if you drive is recognize
[08:49] <sogrady> well, i've booted off the drive, and it shows as SDC, loads normally
[08:49] <ikonia> moosa, investigate
[08:49] <sgtmattbaker> Hello, I have an old machine (64MB RAM, AMD K-6 333MHz processor) and I am having troubles installing Ubuntu server on it.. here are details: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18651/
[08:50] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, your specs are too low
[08:50] <ikonia> you need more ram
[08:50] <rmw1000> Does anyone know how to install flash on ubuntu edgy
[08:50] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: why did Puppy run on it then
[08:50] <sogrady> georgy: lsusb not found, don't have fdisk either
[08:50] <moosa> try dsl or some distro like it
[08:50] <crdlb> !flash | rmw1000
[08:50] <ubotu> rmw1000: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[08:50] <sgtmattbaker> WITH A GUI
[08:50] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, because thats a different disotry
[08:50] <ikonia> distro
[08:50] <Kinux> finally made it into a room, hope i knew how :S
[08:50] <Kinux> Hey all!
[08:51] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: well Puppy loaded W/ a GUI
[08:51] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, your not installing puppy....your installing ubuntu - it needs more ram
[08:51] <sogrady> jpjacobs: sdc: sdc1 / Attached SCSI REMOVABLE DISK SDC / ATTACHED SCSI GENERIC SG2 TYPE 0
[08:51] <rmw1000> ubotu: i've tried this. I wasn't able to get it to work
[08:51] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: but it is server edition
[08:51] <crdlb> sgtmattbaker: puppy is tweaked to be as small as possible
[08:51] <Qj> pls pls someone explain me in a couple steps ho to install ubunto via usb
[08:51] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, I'll say it again "ubuntu needs more ram"
[08:51] <jpjacobs> sogrady, try mount /dev/sdc1
[08:51] <dalexandre> hi, when i run netbeans and the desktop effects is enabled just a blank screen appears, how can i fix this?
[08:52] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: well crap.  I was under the impression that since the server was CLI it would run
[08:52] <jpjacobs> rmw1000, ubotu is a bot, not much point in replying it..
[08:52] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, no
[08:52] <Pelo> rmw1000,   check the forum for this but I think there is a trick where you need to copy or move one of the flash files to  ~/mozilla  or something
[08:52] <rmw1000> Hah.
[08:52] <crdlb> dalexandre: java is broken
[08:52] <ikonia> the kernel (26.) its self requires 32 meg of ram
[08:52] <ikonia> 2.6
[08:52] <a5benwillis>  I cant get apache to run php files under edgy. I installed PHP5 and Apache
[08:52] <a5benwillis>  what else is required?
[08:52] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: what could I run on it? (I have also tried dapper server)
[08:52] <Kinux> hey all, i am a complete n00b to Linux and i cant find the C compiler installed, i have used search,but no luck! if anyone has got any advice or help be more than welcome :)
[08:52] <ikonia> enab;e php
[08:52] <sogrady> jpjacobs: i did, ran " ln-s../sdc1cdrom0"  and then "mount-tvfat/dev/cdroms/cdrom0/cdrom" - No such device
[08:52] <rummik> is the prism 1 kernel module compiled without "master mode" support?
[08:52] <rmw1000>  Well. Does anyone know how to install flash in Ubuntu Edgy?
[08:52] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, a much older distro based around the 2.4 kernel - such as puppy
[08:53] <moosa> sgtmattbaker,  or DSL
[08:53] <sogrady> jpjacobs: also tried "mount /dev/sdc1 /cdrom" - also No such device
[08:53] <jpjacobs> weird
[08:53] <ulisse> 'lo people!
[08:53] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: well, puppy doesn't detect my soundcard (ISA) and I don't think I can really setup a usable ftp or ssh with puppy.
[08:53] <sogrady> ya, i agree
[08:53] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, you can of course setup ftp and ssh with puppy and why does a server need a sound card
[08:54] <ulisse> is there anybody skilled in rebuilding packages with dpkg-buildpkg?
[08:54] <absum> I have a little bit of an odd problem, I've configured my 3Dconnexion spacenavigator to work in X11 as a pointer and if i don't set it to sendcoreevents no input in X11 works
[08:54] <jexd> i have my ubuntu and xubuntu both installed on my computer. all of my music and files are on ubuntu, but after upgrading to 7.04 it became unusable because of how slow it was. xubuntu works a lot better, but i don't have all my multimedia and schoolwork and whatnot. is there a way i can transfer files from on partition to the other?
[08:54] <Pelo> rmw1000,  review this   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[08:54] <ikonia> ulisse, whats up
[08:54] <moosa> gah no body at the XCB channel
[08:54] <Pelo> anyone esle get this where they can'T virticaly resize a FF window ?
[08:54] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: well I wanted to set it up as a temporary server (only on when I need it) and I thought that Ubuntu would detect my soundcard.. and since it was only CLI I thought it would be able to run on my stuff
[08:54] <ulisse> ikonia: I'm trying to rebuild blender with the tango icons from jimmac, but I get a "unpresentable to source" error (or sthg similar)
[08:55] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, use a 2.4 based distro
[08:55] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: isn't dapper that kernel?
[08:55] <ikonia> ulisse, can you put the exact error in the pastebin please
[08:55] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, not sure of the top of my head
[08:55] <Agrajag> sgtmattbaker: no
[08:55] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, but you know puppy works, so just stick with that
[08:55] <ulisse> ikonia: yep, just the time to reproduce it ;)
[08:56] <concept10> why are you worried about a soundcard on a server? (curious)
[08:56] <ikonia> ulisse, let me know when its there, no rush
[08:56] <ikonia> I'll be around
[08:56] <jpjacobs> sgtmattbaker, you could also try featherlinux if you want... (not that recent, but it works)
[08:56] <rummik> how can i set my computer up as an access point?
[08:56] <ikonia> rummik, access point for what?
[08:56] <sogrady> maybe i'll try it with dapper and see what i get
[08:56] <moosa> its sad that windows can run on a 64 migs of ram and ubuntu cant
[08:56] <rummik> ikonia: for my ds, using my prism 1 card
[08:57] <ikonia> rummik, you mean a wirless access point. Well you basiclly just need to setup the correct routing tables on it
[08:57] <ikonia> moosa, don't talk rubbish
[08:57] <bgrupe> moosa: I wouldn't call it "run", though
[08:57] <krishghosh> moosa: try xubuntu
[08:57] <nuxil> how do i set the time and date in a cli?
[08:57] <rummik> ikonia: how would i go about doing that?
[08:57] <ikonia> rummik, iptables is a good start
[08:58] <fsckr> pharuils, i got it to work.....it was that space in My Documents.  I just created another dir and put my music there.  it mounted with np
[08:58] <ikonia> rummik, read up on that
[08:58] <jpjacobs> nuxil, use date, or ntpdate
[08:58] <tatters> nyone use a ATI with a vga to scart cable, from what I read this only works for ATI cards and I have to go s-video with Nvidia
[08:58] <sgtmattbaker> what is a good 2.4 distro that will run on a AMD K-6 333MHz processor 64MB RAM PC?  I have tried puppy but it doesn't detect the old soundcard that is in it
[08:58] <nuxil> my kde time says 2058 while date in cli says 1858 now..
[08:58] <Pelo> sorry guys but this is just too funny   http://www.zazzle.com/product/235415960272004495
[08:58] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, if puppy doesn't detect the soundcard, and you can't configure it to detect it , chances are most others won't as they use the same age kernel
[08:58] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, don't worry about your sound card for servers
[08:58] <tatters> pay 5.00 get a newer soundcard
[08:58] <rummik> ikonia: right now i'm trying to get the card to act as one, i don't need to have the data from my ds sent over the internet
[08:59] <sgtmattbaker> ikonia: well I dont want to use it just for a server..
[08:59] <ikonia> sgtmattbaker, with 64 meg of ram and a old kernel, it won't be much good for anything else
[08:59] <Pelo> !es ! the|saint
[08:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about es ! the - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:59] <the|saint> Hi Pelo!
[08:59] <pharuils> fsckr, cool. there is away around the space, but it sounds like you've found the easiest one!
[08:59] <Pelo> sigh
[08:59] <jpjacobs> ikonia, hmmm i used such a box for years as my main computer, it really still is usefull
[09:00] <the|saint> Did I've done something wrong?
[09:00] <rummik> ikonia: i think i just need to get the card to go into master mode...but it complains when i tell it to
[09:00] <Pelo> no I was sighing at ubotu
[09:00] <ikonia> jpjacobs, perhaps for the more advanced user yes, but watching moves etc etc in the "modern" day - pointless
[09:00] <the|saint> :)
[09:00] <moosa> can i compile a new kernel and replace the old one if i want to?
[09:00] <ikonia> smoves/movies
[09:00] <ulisse> ikonia: it seems it was enough to jump on this channel, now it's compiling...
[09:00] <Agrajag> Pelo: he's in portugal anyway
[09:00] <the|saint> yap
[09:00] <fsckr> yea i remember something that pertained to using something other than spaces before but I have no idea what they called it to google it pharuils
[09:00] <the|saint> :)
[09:01] <moosa> i am thinking of replacing my dsl kernel
[09:02] <ikonia> moosa, we don't care, this is an ubuntu support channel
[09:02] <moosa> will it fit? (i have 1 gig of ram on the flash drive)
[09:02] <moosa> oh
[09:02] <moosa> sorry
[09:02] <pharuils> fsckr, yer, perhaps wen i've actually done some work though :)
[09:02] <zool2005> I can't reinstall grub on dual boot dual sata drives. Ubuntu on 2nd HDD, Windows installed afterwards on 1st HDD. Using alternate CD I get "grub-install hd0 failed". Any ideas?
[09:03] <Megz> Does Ubuntu have a graphical configurator for Screen resolution that's not all fucked up and editing xorg.conf... and doesn't misdetect the res of your display, etc? As easy as in windows?
[09:03] <ikonia> Megz, there is no need for that langauge !
[09:03] <the|saint> eheh :D
[09:03] <Megz> give me a break
[09:04] <Megz> just answer the question
[09:04] <ikonia> Megz, no - just watch your language
[09:04] <ikonia> its uncalled for
[09:04] <Boohbah> Megz: autoconfiguration usually works

[09:57] <joe4444> hmm... i just installed exmap, but it says exmap: command not found
[09:57] <LjL> joe4444, i don't know what the actual command is called, but "dpkg -L <packagename>" (dpkg -L exmap in this case) will show you a list of all files belonging to a package. so, since the command will be in /bin or /usr/bin, try "dpkg -L exmap | grep bin" to know what the command is called.
[09:58] <ditoa> fantastic news about dell :)
[09:58] <joe4444> also, apt-get install isn't prompting me to confirm anymore... doesn't it usually give a y/n prompt after it displays what you're about to install?

[10:09] <nuxil> |ericsson|, heh.. that doesnt work
[10:09] <LjL> ouroboros: waitwait - you've tried to install an i386 package on a 64 bit system? >:
[10:09] <nuxil> |ericsson|, it only fails on me
[10:09] <Vlet> LjL, wirelessmonkey: perhaps I mis-spoke; This is simply an external drive with no system data on it
[10:09] <FakeOutdoorsman> |ericsson|: most importantly, keep a list of installed apps and update them regularly.  using keys for 70+ users won't be easy.  just make sure their passwords are good.
[10:09] <LjL> ouroboros: package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)
[10:09] <wirelessmonkey> danm2007: it sounlds like you don't have the DRI module enabled in your xorg.conf
[10:09] <ouroboros> LjL: Well, yes, but the brother website says it's the propper thing to do.
[10:09] <ouroboros> LjL: They say do --force-all
[10:09] <nuxil> |ericsson|, if i try to start it manualy.. i get some weird error..
[10:09] <danm2007> wirelessmonkey how do i check that ?
[10:10] <LjL> ouroboros: can you point me to this site?
[10:10] <ouroboros> LjL: It's even in their FAQ.  :)
[10:10] <nuxil> |ericsson|, ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[10:10] <Flonares> LjL, hi!
[10:10] <zcat[1] > danm2007: what kind of video card do you have?
[10:10] <danm2007> zcat[1]  Ati radeon x1600
[10:10] <vic2> LjL, where do i mount my image using dmountiso
[10:10] <ouroboros> LjL: here's the FAQ... I downloaded the drivers from this site... http://solutions.brother.com/linux/sol/printer/linux/linux_faq-2.html
[10:10] <wirelessmonkey> danm2007: emacs(or whatever text editor you prefer) /etc/X11/xorg.conf  then hunt for DRI in the document.
[10:10] <vic2> gmountiso**
[10:10] <zcat[1] > danm2007: you set up the binary drivers?
[10:11] <nuxil> |ericsson|, any ideas ?
[10:11] <zcat[1] > !ati
[10:11] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:11] <charlienail> hey guys, is this just a free for all, do i just shout my question?
[10:11] <kuma> hi, i'm compiling sendmail from source , but there isn't a configure file, can somebody help me?
[10:11] <wirelessmonkey> charlienail: yep
[10:11] <zcat[1] > !ask | charlienail
[10:11] <ubotu> charlienail: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:11] <|ericsson|> nuxil: did it crash or what happend?
[10:11] <icecube_> hi all
[10:11] <wirelessmonkey> hello icecube_
[10:12] <LjL> ouroboros: ok, let's try this,  sudo touch /usr/local/Brother/Printer/mfc440cn/cupswrapper/cupswrappermfc440cn , then try the dpkg -i again
[10:12] <icecube_> it looks that i've got a problem with gcc
[10:12] <vic2> LjL, where do i mount my image using dmountiso
[10:12] <nuxil> |ericsson|, when i try the startup scruipt i get failed. when i try start mysql from cli like /usr/bin/mysql i get that error i pasted
[10:12] <oliver221> hi i am trying to get python-mod to work on ubuntu server 7.04 .. using the main packages, but i get a version missmatch error?
[10:12] <danm2007> zcat[1]  Im using the System > Administrator > Restricted Driver manager > Ati Accelerated graphics driver
[10:12] <LjL> vic2: no idea, i'm on KDE
[10:12] <charlienail> ok cool, so i'm on feisty, and about every 30 seconds my system freezes for maybe 3 seconds, the mouse doesn't move, music stops playing, then goes back, i thought it might be hardware but it never happened in windows... i don't even know where to get started to diagnose what's happening
[10:12] <wirelessmonkey> icecube_:what error?
[10:12] <icecube_> i'm getting next error: configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[10:12] <LjL> !build-essential > icecube_    (icecube_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[10:12] <nuxil> |ericsson|, i tryed uninstalling it and reinstalling it,, but no diffrance
[10:13] <zcat[1] > danm2007: and you restarted X (or rebooted) after that?
[10:13] <bruenig> kuma, 8.14.1?
[10:13] <icecube_> gcc -v gives me this : gcc version 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)
[10:13] <Kazol> Has anyone here had success getting weather updates from the gdesklets applets?
[10:13] <danm2007> zcat[1]  yes i rebooted
[10:13] <LjL> icecube_, just install build-essential
[10:13] <|ericsson|> nuxil: sometimes you can try telnet (provided you have it) to the localosts:3306 (default mysql)
[10:13] <danm2007> zcat[1]  would it have anything to do with the fact im running beryl ?
[10:14] <icecube_> LjL how do i do that?
[10:14] <zyconae> does anyone know if I make a startup script do I have to use sudo?
[10:14] <charlienail> anyone?
[10:14] <nuxil> |ericsson|, telnet: could not resolve localosts:3306/telnet: Name or service not known
[10:14] <LjL> icecube_: by typing  sudo apt-get install build-essential  or hunting it in Synaptic. like with all packages.,
[10:14] <Juanca> can I ask here for help installing Aptana; anyone?
[10:14] <wirelessmonkey> icecube_:do you have the rest of build-essential installed?
[10:14] <Comrade-Sergei> ive lost all my audio and i dont know what happened i just came home and it was like that HELP!
[10:14] <icecube_> ok, i'll give it a shot, one second
[10:14] <zcat[1] > danm2007: ahhh yeah... beryl and most 3d stuff doesn't play nice.. switch back to metacity when you want to run games :)
[10:14] <|ericsson|> nuxil: Ok, then check so that you actually have the file in /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock, use ls -lsa to check it
[10:14] <georgy> nuxil : you have to add a user who have the permission to connect to your mysql server through the network
[10:14] <Kazol> I cannot run alien. Do I have to apt-get it?
[10:14] <danm2007> zcat[1]  ok leme try that
[10:15] <LjL> Kazol: erm, you can hardly run it if you don't have it installed, that's for sure.
[10:15] <georgy> Kazol : yes
[10:15] <Pelo> when I plug a second usb device (eg music player)  my first usb devide (eg thumb drive) gets disconnected the it gets reconnected,   and I get that error msg that says my usb device was disconnected dangerously and I should use eject in the future,   any fix for that ?
[10:15] <LjL> Kazol: besides, are you quite sure you *want* to run alien? trying to install RPMs on ubuntu is most often a bad idea.
[10:15] <accept> Can I run Ubuntu on an iPAQ?
[10:15] <zyconae> do I have to use sudo in startup script
[10:15] <MetalWolf> hi, I just installed the latest ubuntu onto my machine and apt-get installed window maker.  For some reason I don't have any key mappings such as alt-tab.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?
[10:15] <LjL> accept: no
[10:15] <Juanca> does anyone know about installig Aptana?
[10:15] <icecube_> wirelessmonkey, i'm doing < sudo apt-get install build-essential > atm
[10:15] <danm2007> zcat[1]  i switched back still didn't work. do i need to reboot ?
[10:15] <bradf0rdX>  How the Hell do I find the trash!!!????
[10:15] <Comrade-Sergei> ive lost all my audio and i dont know what happened i just came home and it was like that HELP!
[10:15] <nuxil> |ericsson|, no files there
[10:15] <FakeOutdoorsman> |ericsson|: iptables is another useful tool. again, howtoforge.com has many good security tutorials and an excellent message board for questions.
[10:15] <LjL> !language | bradf0rdX
[10:15] <ubotu> bradf0rdX: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:15] <Kazol> LjL: why? I just want to install xdvdshrink
[10:16] <DShepherd> zyconae: i dont think so... it depends on the task.
[10:16] <zcat[1] > danm2007: wirelessmonkey was also about to tell you how to check in the xorg.conf .. I don't have much experience with ati so perhaps if turning beryl off doesn't work, he can pick up from here..
[10:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> How do I set ESSID for my eth1?
[10:16] <nuxil> georgy, well first i need to get mysql to start
[10:16] <accept> LjL: take a look at this sentence: lso, we cannot make binary drivers available on other architectures (such as the Mac or IPAQ) if we don't have the ability to port the software source code ourselves.
[10:16] <icecube_> k done wirelessmonkey & LjL
[10:16] <charlienail> so i'm on feisty, and about every 30 seconds my system freezes for maybe 3 seconds, the mouse doesn't move, music stops playing, then goes back, i thought it might be hardware but it never happened in windows... i don't even know where to get started to diagnose what's happening
[10:16] <|ericsson|> FakeOutdoorsman: brilliant info, thank's a million mate ;)
[10:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> How do I set ESSID for my eth1?
[10:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> woops on double post
[10:16] <Pelo> Juanca, do you have a specific question or do you just want to know how to install ?
[10:16] <kuma> bruenig: yup, lastest version
[10:16] <bradf0rdX> I deleted the trash shortcut or whatever, rather than deleting what existed inside of the trash!
[10:16] <danm2007> ok
[10:16] <bruenig> kuma, did you read INSTALL
[10:16] <zyconae> I'm setting up a bridge and changing network settings
[10:16] <danm2007> zcat[1]  thanks man
[10:16] <bradf0rdX> And now I can
[10:16] <bradf0rdX> not find it
[10:16] <georgy> nix  : whats happen if you try in a console: sudo mysql ?
[10:17] <kuma> bruenig: nope, i'm going to now, thanks xD
[10:17] <FakeOutdoorsman> |ericsson|: no problem.  good luck against the constant barrage of intrusion attempts.
[10:17] <ouroboros> LjL: had to create the directory and touch the file, but still no success in the install, results in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18678/
[10:17] <DShepherd> zyconae: then sudo would be useful then..
[10:17] <cox3777> anyone here use torrentflux?
[10:17] <Comrade-Sergei> bradf0rdX its in the home directory ).Trash
[10:17] <bruenig> kuma, yeah that and README, it has a somewhat weird install protocol
[10:17] <|ericsson|> nuxil: go to /etc/mysql/my.cnf and add the path
[10:17] <Kazol> LjL: "h*ll" is considered bad language?
[10:17] <nuxil> |ericsson|, ther was no files ther.. what does that mean?
[10:17] <Juanca> Pelo: yes, i want to have it as Eclipse plugin, but I thing I've messed up things (again :( )
[10:17] <nuxil> ok
[10:17] <icecube_> seems to work now... i'm trying to install superkaramba
[10:17] <MetalWolf> I even tried my old settings and they didn't work right either.
[10:17] <zyconae> ok so do I put sudo and then the command followed by my password?
[10:17] <kuma> bruenig:ok, thanks a lot
[10:17] <Pelo> bradf0rdX,  you mean the taksbar shortcut ?  righclick the pannel add to pannel, find it in the list
[10:17] <danm2007> wirelessmonkey i open my xor.conf  what DRI am i looking for ?
[10:17] <bradf0rdX> How do I show hidden files? I can't find my trash
[10:17] <salty> what was the last kernel version that supported the ipw3945 wireless card?
[10:18] <nuxil> |ericsson|, its already there
[10:18] <zcat[1] > actuaqlly I have a problem myself; every few days, stuff stops working. programs segfault every time I try to start them, or I can't log in at all.. nothing consistent. I suspect bad ram. You think that's likely?
[10:18] <Comrade-Sergei> bradf0rdX view> show hidden
[10:18] <LjL> Kazol: kind of. and together with multiple question and exclamation marks, in the middle of a generic, almost unanswerable sentence, it makes for a very badly phrased support request.
[10:18] <Pelo> Juanca,  I dn'T knwo about that maybe they have a channel you can ask in  or check their faq
[10:18] <charlienail> anyone? persistant system lock ups not interesting enough? :)
[10:18] <|ericsson|> nuxil: Something like: socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock ?
[10:18] <bradf0rdX> Oh I see... Thank you
[10:18] <nuxil> yes
[10:18] <DShepherd> zyconae: no dont put your password in the script... you can run a script sudo without the need for a password
[10:18] <zcat[1] > charlienail: no, just too hard to diagnose :)
[10:18] <nuxil> |ericsson|, yes
[10:18] <Comrade-Sergei> ive lost all my audio and i dont know what happened i just came home and it was like that HELP!\
[10:18] <icecube_> hmm guys now i'm having another error...checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[10:18] <DShepherd> zyconae: let me see if I can find some info to help you out
[10:18] <charlienail> yeah, i know, i don't even know what to start checking
[10:18] <zcat[1] > charlienail: try turning off apic or apm or something :)
[10:18] <LjL> ouroboros: permission denied probably means the postrm/postinst scripts are running as a non-root user. do "chmod a+rwx /usr/blah/blah/filename" on that file
[10:19] <Bacon|ubuntu> someone just give me a quick command to set the ESSID of my network
[10:19] <Pelo> !sound > Comrade-Sergei  check pm
[10:19] <DShepherd> zyconae: dont put your password in the script though.. that's not smart
[10:19] <LjL> ouroboros: that is, sudo chmod
[10:19] <georgy> icecube : install the dev package
[10:19] <zyconae> ok, thanks very much DShepherd, I'll just put sudo before every command and not put my password in it anywhere
[10:19] <charlienail> lol, i'll just turn off every service, one at a time until it stops
[10:19] <charlienail> is that even worth doing?
[10:19] <zyconae> or can I just put sudo su?
[10:19] <zyconae> at the beginning?
[10:20] <icecube_> georgy, the dev package of X you mean i guess?
[10:20] <|ericsson|> nuxil: Is it mysql 5.0 or 4.1?
[10:20] <DShepherd> zyconae: sudo su can work.. but i dont think persons here would recommend it.. thought it works that way though
[10:20] <LjL> Kazol: on a quick googling, it doesn't seem like xdvdshrink is available as an Ubuntu package. have you considered for instance k9copy?
[10:20] <zcat[1] > zyconae: you can use sudo -i but it's safer to use sudo on each command. sudo remembers the password for a few minutes so it won't ask every time you use it..
[10:20] <nuxil> |ericsson|, its version 5
[10:20] <DShepherd> zyconae: when you run the script it should as you for your password.. if you dont mind that pause.. then your good to go
[10:21] <kadakas> I want the estonian locale settings (date format, currency, names of days), but I want my applications in english - how can I make this happen?
[10:21] <georgy> icecube_, yes
[10:21] <danm2007> wirelessmonkey i opend my xorg.conf  what DRI am i looking for ?
[10:21] <|ericsson|> nuxil: can you access it at all? Try mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u (your-username) -p(your-password)
[10:21] <zyconae> so I always have to be there for the bootup?
[10:21] <Pelo> !local > kadakas  check your pm window
[10:21] <icecube_> i'm a beginner in linux , so i just do sudo apt-get x? georgy?
[10:21] <DShepherd> zyconae: so i guess you dont want to be asked for your password...
[10:21] <kadakas> (2007-05-01 23:21:34) ubotu: Sorry, I don't know anything about local - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:21] <kadakas> !local
[10:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about local - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:22] <georgy> icecube : no, search the package in synaptic
[10:22] <ouroboros> LjL: It's weird... the file and directory I made are gone, I guess the install program removed them... but the errors getting smaller I'm going to try one more time.
[10:22] <epotash> hey, since ugprading to feisty my wireless card stops working after i put my laptop to sleep and wake it.  in fact the network manager applet shows that i have no connections available, but i am actually connectd on LAN and it works fine... but i cant switch to wireless
[10:22] <zyconae> not really this is going to be a squid box filtering web traffic at a client sight that may need to be rebooted remotely
[10:22] <georgy> icecube_, : I mean the right name
[10:22] <Pelo> icecube_,  you might find this usefull   http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[10:22] <Kazol> LjL: I have trouble with k9copy. It cannot open the DVD or even the help file.
[10:22] <nuxil> |ericsson|, nop...
[10:22] <zyconae> site, actually
[10:22] <icecube_> i'll check it out Pelo, thnx
[10:23] <|ericsson|> nuxil: try grepping mysql then
[10:23] <Bacon|ubuntu> How do I reset my internet ?
[10:23] <LjL> icecube_, have you read the build-essential page that the bot gave you? it gives quite a few hints, especially as to the dev packages that are most often needed. like the X includes.
[10:23] <Bacon|ubuntu> lol, my wireless
[10:23] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo it still sees it, but will not play through it
[10:23] <DShepherd> zyconae: see if this helps.. http://www.gratisoft.us/sudo/man/sudoers.html
[10:23] <|ericsson|> Bacon|ubuntu: :P
[10:24] <clop> hi, i'm curious; what is the "//" directory?  it seems to be some kind of weird alias to "/"... but when I do `pwd -P` in it it shows me "//" instead of "/"... so i'm not sure what's going on
[10:24] <zyconae> thanks I'll take a look at that

[10:25] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo yea thats all good
[10:25] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo its just so random i wasnt even tinkering this time
[10:26] <DShepherd> zyconae: well I am not sure.. give it a go and see how that works..
[10:26] <Pelo> Comrade-Sergei,  then start reviewing what you did since the last time it worked, and what you did before your last reboot
[10:26] <zyconae> ok thanks for all your help I'll try it out
[10:26] <|ericsson|> nuxil: try to chown to "mysql.mysql" if owned by root, and give it permission 755
[10:26] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo all i did was log in
[10:26] <Guitrokr> i just followed a tutorial to get a broadcom wireless card to work, i now can see my wireless networks in the manager but i can't connect to them and so now im stuck there, does anyone know what to do?
[10:26] <LjL> ouroboros, look, just edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/mfc440cncupswrapper.postinst and /var/lib/dpkg/info/mfc440cncupswrapper.postrm and put "exit 0" on the second line of them
[10:27] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo and fire up Amarok and it didnt work
[10:27] <Pelo> Comrade-Sergei, review what you did in the previous session ,
[10:27] <Bacon|ubuntu> =/
[10:27] <Bacon|ubuntu> my wireless till doesnt work
[10:27] <LjL> ouroboros: then install the package, then remove/purge the package, then install it again. see if it gets it fixed.
[10:27] <icecube_> installing xlibs-dev LjL... :) thnx

[10:31] <Bacon|ubuntu> Hey, I set a frequency for my wireless but it wont accept it

[10:33] <rmd_> i'm trying out kubuntu-desktop, if i get tired of it, how do i tell the system to use gdm again, rather then kdm?
[10:33] <koln> hi all
[10:33] <Comrade-Sergei> lol Pelo i think it was my mouse?!? lol i changed it back to using the usb-ps/2 and now it works, that cant be right... irq or something,...
[10:33] <rmd_> is it automated?
[10:33] <Pelo> DShepherd, yep and even if there are few master helpers in there the less experience ppl can share their findings with eachother
[10:34] <Pelo> Comrade-Sergei, someting like that
[10:34] <DShepherd> Pelo: makes sense
[10:34] <Comrade-Sergei> |ericsson| i know right
[10:34] <georgy> rdm- : in a console, sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm and choice gdm
[10:34] <jsmidt> LjL, your advice works for opengl bindings but what package is the GtkGLExt Python bindings?
[10:34] <bradf0rdX> Does anyone know of a dock for gnome? Or if a Kubuntu dock would work in gnome?
[10:34] <Comrade-Sergei> |ericsson| my laptop has problems getting online via the wifi with kubuntu
[10:34] <nuxil> |ericsson|, empty..
[10:34] <Pelo> bradf0rdX, avant , but it's not that great
[10:34] <Pelo> bradf0rdX, google for it

[10:35] <|ericsson|> Comrade-Sergei: you're not the only one, been quite a few of those..
[10:35] <|ericsson|> nuxil: let me think :)
[10:35] <RichiH> how do i edit the time a sudo magic cookie is valid?
[10:35] <Pelo> Comrade-Sergei, I think we'Re suppose to ask permission before registereing channels with ubuntu in it
[10:35] <Flannel> RichiH: What do you want to do?
[10:35] <Comrade-Sergei> |ericcson| i was on a call and someone pulled out a kubuntu lappy i was amazed
[10:35] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo w/e
[10:35] <RichiH> Flannel: increase the sudo timeout
[10:35] <Comrade-Sergei> ask an op
[10:36] <hylje> nano in vim is crazy
[10:36] <Flannel> RichiH: `sudo visudo` then change the timeout
[10:36] <Comrade-Sergei> Pelo or maybe it was beryl, that didnt start up this time
[10:36] <jpjacobs> hylje, nano in vim?
[10:36] <Pelo> Comrade-Sergei, w/e
[10:36] <Comrade-Sergei> anyways how do i get something to load on boot in ubuntu like msconfig in XP
[10:36] <hylje> jpjacobs: :!nano
[10:37] <Flannel> !bum | Comrade-Sergei
[10:37] <ubotu> Comrade-Sergei: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[10:37] <Pelo> I'm off, back later
[10:37] <hierundda> jas.dvd
[10:37] <jpjacobs> yea, i know nano, but what do you mean with 'nano in vim'?
[10:37] <Comrade-Sergei> Flannel does this involve me writing scripts?
[10:37] <hylje> jpjacobs: running nano inside vim. i mean, it doesnt quite work :p
[10:37] <jsmidt> Does anybody know which package is the GtkGLExt Python bindings?
[10:37] <Flannel> Comrade-Sergei: No.  Use BUM.
[10:38] <Comrade-Sergei> Flannel ok ill test it out thanks
[10:38] <|ericsson|> there is always #ubuntu-wifi :)
[10:38] <LjL> jsmidt: i can't find it, to be honest. but http://www.k-3d.org/gtkglext/Main_Page says there's an Ubuntu package available from third parties
[10:38] <jvolkman> hylje, what do you expect it to do? =)
[10:38] <hylje> jvolkman: edit text
[10:38] <jpjacobs> hylje,  no indeed... it's not really meant to ;)
[10:39] <charlienail> is it possible to have fullscreen controls in vlc?
[10:39] <FakeOutdoorsman> jsmidt: maybe libgtkglext1?
[10:40] <thoreauputic> charlienail: try right click
[10:41] <|ericsson|> nuxil: this apparantly worked in FC, don't know for ubuntu, but try: /usr/sbin/setenforce 0 as root

[10:42] <nuxil> |ericsson|, i can give that a try
[10:42] <Comrade-Sergei> Flannel how do i add something to it?
[10:42] <charlienail> well right clicking wont let me scrub the video
[10:42] <kadakas> my pc can see mshome, but no laptop
[10:42] <kadakas> and laptop cannot see my pc
[10:42] <piNNoy> hmmmm, im REAL new i just installed ubuntu on my laptop.....can anyone walk me threw please? i read alot of the faqs but couldnt under stand some
[10:42] <|ericsson|> nuxil: other than that I'm quite stumped and it would probably be more productive for you to google it, rather than ask me :)

[10:42] <LjL> ouroboros: wait, i told you to try the "exit 0" trick on the "postinst" file and the "postrm" file, but the ones involved were "postinst" and "PRErm"

[10:42] <r4nge> how would i remove the graphic effects when i minimize a window in ubuntu gnome?
[10:42] <Skaag> how do I add a path to binaries in ubuntu?
[10:42] <Skaag> system wide?
[10:43] <andrew> Any reason that Planet Ubuntu hasn't updated since this morning?
[10:43] <|ericsson|> nuxil: but I still belive it's a permission issue, could you try to sudo chmod 777 /tmp as well, just in case?

[10:43] <kadakas> How do I make a NTFS partition into a EXT3 partition without loosing any data?
[10:43] <Comrade-Sergei> Flannel how do i add something to it?
[10:44] <piNNoy> varient: i dont see gl desktop? do i need berly?
[10:44] <bruenig> kadakas, backup the data and then restore it after format
[10:44] <Flannel> Comrade-Sergei: What do you want to add?
[10:44] <thoreauputic> ExIG: only works if the remote rhythmbox is running
[10:44] <sss> a czy ktos tu mowi po polsku
[10:44] <LjL> kadakas: you don't, i'm afraid. you need to backup and restore. there *is* a tool available, but 1) it's unreliable 2) not sure it works with NTFS at all, actually i don't think so
[10:44] <sss> a czy ktos tu mowi po polsku
[10:44] <kadakas> bruenig: theres 300GB of it, i have no other hdd that big
[10:44] <ExIG> thoreauptic: where do i get that?
[10:44] <thoreauputic> ExIG: and the plugin is configured...
[10:44] <|ericsson|> !pl > sss
[10:44] <bruenig> kadakas, get one, or stick with ntfs
[10:44] <ExIG> thoreauptic: well plugin config only asked me if i wanted to share mine
[10:44] <kadakas> i cant write to ntfs
[10:45] <kadakas> its very unreliable
[10:45] <Wamphyri> is there a rar package?
[10:45] <|ericsson|> !ntfs-3g | kadakas
[10:45] <Comrade-Sergei> Flannel Beryl

[10:45] <Wamphyri> or do i need to install the version from rarsoft?
[10:45] <LjL> Wamphyri: yes, it's surprisingly called "rar". it's in multiverse i think
[10:45] <thoreauputic> ExIG: as I said, the remote share shows if the remote rhythmbox is running
[10:45] <LjL> !info rar

[10:45] <DShepherd> Wamphyri: unrar.. but it yo can only uncompress stuff
[10:45] <bruenig> kadakas, as much as you may wish, there is no way to do what you said. You must format the drive to change filesystems.
[10:45] <Flannel> Comrade-Sergei: beryl starts when you login, not when you boot up.  Or at least, that's how I understand it.  Ask in #ubuntu-effects, they know ebst
[10:45] <jrib> DShepherd: "rar" exists too

[10:46] <rmd_> now that i've installed kubuntu-desktop, is there a way to automate the removal of all things gnome?
[10:46] <Wamphyri> there we go
[10:46] <andrew> Any reason that Planet Ubuntu hasn't updated since this morning?
[10:46] <Flannel> Comrade-Sergei: that's a different method (its user specific, isntead of your entire machine)
[10:46] <Comrade-Sergei> Flannel thats a little better ill try it
[10:46] <variant> andrew: people have lives
[10:46] <LjL> rmd_: hardly so, but try "sudo apt-get autoremove ubuntu-desktop" (CAREFUL, look at what it asks you to remove)
[10:46] <Dhjiz> bonsoir
[10:46] <jrib> Skaag: put a symlink in /usr/local/bin/   is this what you mean?
[10:46] <Dhjiz> erf
[10:47] <thoreauputic> ExIG: hmm - well I only know that it works here on the local network: check your plugin settings I guess
[10:47] <Skaag> jrib: what about without symlinks?
[10:47] <andrew> variant: no, the script hasn't run (look at the last updated)
[10:47] <jrib> Skaag: what do you want to do exactly?
[10:47] <Wamphyri> LjL: i did a search for rar in Synaptic
[10:47] <Skaag> if I want an entire directory of binaries to exist in the path
[10:47] <Wamphyri> nothing came up
[10:47] <variant> andrew: ah, no idea then
[10:47] <ouroboros> LjL: Ha hah!  well done, it's uninstalled!  now to try and install it fresh.
[10:47] <LjL> rmd_: there is also this http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde but i'm not sure it's been updated for Feisty
[10:47] <thoreauputic> ExIG: I assume your firewall is accepting local connections?
[10:47] <LjL> Wamphyri: that's most likely because you don't have Multiverse (and even Universe, since unrar-free is in Universe) enabled.
[10:47] <piNNoy> k trying again: when i go to system > prefrences > i dont see a gl desktop all i see with desktop is desktop backround and desktop effectts (im trying to get the cube)
[10:47] <LjL> !repositories > Wamphyri    (Wamphyri, see the private message from Ubotu)
[10:48] <variant> Skaag: be carefull modifying the path variable, it can be a big security risk if done improperly
[10:48] <bruenig> rmd_, I wrote a script called metadiff that will allow that, you can find it here. second post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=411823
[10:48] <DShepherd> jrib: right you are

[10:50] <DShepherd> piNNoy: you might need to install gnome-compiz-manager... it makes life alot easier with editing some of the options..
[10:50] <bruenig> rm -r directory/* does not remove the directory
[10:50] <jrib> Skaag: why don't you use /usr/local/sbin/ for that instead of create a new place in the PATH?  default PATH is set in /etc/environment if you still want to change it though...

[10:53] <ExIG> thoreauptic: hmmm other people can listen to my music over DAAP but i cant listen to theirs...
[10:53] <kristopher> when using rm, does -f totally discount the -i option
[10:53] <bruenig> vic2, in windows, go get your mozilla folder from appdata or whatever it is called, then copy it over to your linux partition and put it in /home/username/.mozilla
[10:53] <DX00> can anyone tell me why that would happen
[10:54] <thoreauputic> ExIG: then presumably they aren't sharing theirs ;)
[10:54] <vic2> bruenig, o OK, thx
[10:54] <bruenig> kristopher, I would assume so

[10:54] <Alonea> I am trying to look at an .rtf file without any success. OpenOffice gives an error and KWord opens it, but its blank.
[10:54] <LjL> Wamphyri: the structure is as follow (i assume Feisty): repositories are "feisty", the main one, "feisty-updates", updates for serious bugs, "feisty-security", security fixes, and "feisty-backports", packages ported back from Ubuntu+1 (currently non-existent).  then each repository has four components: "main", free stuff by the core devs, "restricted", non-free by core devs, "universe", free by community, "multiverse", non-free by community
[10:54] <thoreauputic> ExIG: BTW to type nicks use thore<tab>
[10:54] <thoreauputic> ExIG: for example
[10:55] <LjL> Wamphyri: "rar" and "unrar" are non-free, and as such in Multiverse ("unrar-free" is available in Universe, but can't deal with files made with recent versions of WinRAR)
[10:55] <kristopher> bruenig: thats kinda weird.
[10:55] <ward_> DShepherd, u were right, but its 2 versions back

[10:56] <kristopher> bruenig: i've just heard of plenty of people symlinking rm to rm -i for safety measures.. Actually think that mandrake does it by default
[10:56] <bruenig> barata, low end computers with linux......linspire comes to mind
[10:56] <Kazol> does the default linux archiver have .rar support?
[10:56] <delta___> Hey there! I am looking for some way to stop a process that uses too much (virtual) memory. "ulimit -v" does a pretty good job, but catches "good" processes off-guard, thereby killing them. Is there a user-space program that can stop the process and ask for confirmation first?
[10:56] <dunstabulos> hiya i'm trying to set up an anonymous smb share and am using the shared folders program under admin tools but it doesn't seem to have any options for who can connect to the share? can anyone advise the easiest way to set up an anonymous/any user accepted read only smb share?
[10:56] <bruenig> kristopher, retards I guess
[10:56] <barata> I dont like linspire
[10:56] <LjL> Kazol: yes, but it only gets it after rar/unrar (or unrar-nonfree) are installed
[10:56] <LjL> i mean unrar-free
[10:56] <bruenig> kristopher, I don't want to type y for ever thing I delete personally
[10:56] <Wamphyri> LjL: last question :) i have the nvidia componants installed Desktop Effects turned on, but the cube isn't working and the option is checked and it was working last night
[10:56] <kristopher> bruenig: Its just a safety measure thats nice.
[10:56] <Kazol> LjL: so I should apt-get unrar-free?
[10:57] <Guitrokr> i have gotten my wireless networks to show up in the network manager, but i can't connect to them, it just tries for a long time, i have a broadcom wireless card and i followed tutorials to get this far but now im stuck
[10:57] <kristopher> bruenig: I'm actually surprised that ubuntu doesn't do it while using sudo
[10:57] <ward_> DShepherd, i was wrong, that is freej, another prog by dyne... :-(
[10:57] <DShepherd> kristopher: 'i' seems to have the preference over 'f'//
[10:57] <_Steve_> anyone here use heartbeat on ubuntu?
[10:57] <LjL> Wamphyri: i don't know much about desktop effects (i'm not even on GNOME), sorry
[10:57] <DShepherd> ward_: hehe.. sorry to here that..
[10:57] <bruenig> kristopher, they could I guess
[10:57] <thoreauputic> !bcm43xx | Guitrokr
[10:57] <ubotu> Guitrokr: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[10:57] <bruenig> kristopher, alias sudo rm='sudo rm -i'
[10:57] <kristopher> DShepherd: -f is cancelling it out on my machine, i'm not sure why!
[10:57] <LjL> Kazol: depends. if the RAR files you need to open were made with recent versions of WinRAR, you will need "unrar", not just "unrar-free"
[10:57] <kamal> Hi everybody!!
[10:57] <Guitrokr> no no you don't understand i've gone through every help website
[10:57] <Guitrokr> i've been redirected
[10:57] <Wamphyri> LjL: ok,was just odd it was working till i changed my wal papers then all hell broke loose and it doesn't work anymore lol
[10:57] <year0369> German ubuntu chat ?
[10:57] <kristopher> bruenig: Yah, i know how to do it.  I dont know why i said symlink, but i'm just surprised that ubuntu doesn't do it by default
[10:57] <Guitrokr> im looking for someone who might know something about this
[10:58] <LjL> !de | year0369
[10:58] <ubotu> year0369: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[10:58] <Guitrokr> not for another person to redirect me to another website
[10:58] <gregorovius> hi... I can't suspend or hibernate on Feisty... anyone savyy willing to help?
[10:58] <kamal> i need help about boot loader
[10:58] <stefg> !grub | kamal
[10:58] <ubotu> kamal: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:58] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: are you sure your card is supported? Are you using ndiswrapper or bcm43xx?
[10:58] <DShepherd> kristopher: oh.. kool!!. well not that kool.. not sure why though.. why would you want to use them both anyways?
[10:58] <kamal> thanks so much
[10:59] <DShepherd> ward_: you may wanna try asking in #ubuntu-studio.. there might be a little more helpful..
[10:59] <Guitrokr> bcm43xx
[10:59] <ExIG> thoreauputic: nah just tried a guy who i know is sharing, he is on windows, but that shouldnt matter right?
[10:59] <|ericsson|> tar cvpzf backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys / <--- would that be enough of a complete system.backup for (k)buntu?
[10:59] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: do you know about the cafuego firmware debs?
[10:59] <LjL> yikes
[10:59] <walkintome> hi all. i have two questions. 1-how do i move the 'close, min, max' buttons a few pixels over (they are right on the edge) and 2-how do I improve font smoothing under feisty?
[10:59] <|ericsson|> huh..
[10:59] <Guitrokr> i've already intalled all the fireware
[11:00] <Rossimo> i'm having trouble with my thumbdrive. if i boot my computer while one thumbdrive is inserted, two thumbdrives appear on the desktop. once i umount one, the other stays on the desktop, and it will not go away. any way i can fix this?
[11:00] <bruenig> |ericsson|, yeah
[11:00] <delta___> dunstabulos: In /etc/samba/smb.conf, set global option security=share, then set "guest ok = yes" for the share you want to make available anonymously
[11:00] <|ericsson|> bruenig: cheers mate..
[11:00] <oneil> hi -- I understand that if I sudo su -- I become root, but how can I get back revert back?
[11:00] <LjL> oneil: "exit"
[11:00] <kadakas> exit
[11:00] <piNNoy> ok my cube is not working and i have it enabled im holding down crtl alt and pressing left mouse button and nothing is happening, whats wrong?
[11:00] <LjL> oneil: besides, use "sudo -i" rather than "sudo su"
[11:00] <Bacon|ubuntu> Meh this is depressing
[11:00] <stefg> oneil: ctrl-D
[11:00] <|ericsson|> oneil: once you close terminal, exit or wait 16 minutes ;)
[11:00] <bruenig> |ericsson|, it will create a giant file though, so if you are intending to copy that to a disc, make sure you split it up
[11:00] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: have you checked the bcm43xx home page for your chipset compatibility?
[11:01] <drummer> I am having problems getting an HP 4050 to actually print anything under feisty.  I works fine under Dapper etc.  Please help.  SOMEBODY, please!!!
[11:01] <delta___> dunstabulos: Ah, and set "writeable = no" if you don't want everybody deleting the shared files :)
[11:01] <oneil> ah, got it -- thanks, everyone
[11:01] <Guitrokr> well im not sure what card i have, all windows tells me is its a broadcom card and ubuntu tells me i have a dell wireless mini-pci card, even tho this is an HP
[11:02] <stefg> !wifi Guitrokr
[11:02] <chump> can someone help me i got this bug https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/4258 but the solution doesn't fix my problem
[11:02] <|ericsson|> bruenig: yeah, no probs
[11:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wifi guitrokr - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:02] <walkintome> i hope everyone's doing well!  i just have two simple questions. 1-how do i move the 'close, min, max' buttons a few pixels over (they are right on the edge) and 2-how do I improve font smoothing under feisty?
[11:02] <DX00> can someone help me with this error 'Invalid mount option while trying to mount the volume'
[11:02] <vic2> guys, does any1 know how to get macromedia stuff on linux somehow???
[11:02] <piNNoy>  ok my cube is not working and i have it enabled im holding down crtl alt and pressing left mouse button and nothing is happening, whats wrong?
[11:02] <DX00> i get it when i mount a dvd
[11:02] <stefg> !wifi | Guitrokr
[11:02] <jrib> vic2: you mean flash player or osmehting else?
[11:02] <ubotu> Guitrokr: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:02] <bruenig> walkintome, you would need a different theme
[11:02] <drummer> I am having problems getting an HP 4050 to actually print anything under feisty.  I works fine under Dapper etc.  Please help.  SOMEBODY, please!!!
[11:02] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: lspci will tell you - then check http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/?go=deviceson
[11:02] <TSWoodV> Greetings!  How can I make Samba's swat behave more Ubuntu-friendly, namely, how can I log into swat with admin rights without setting a root password?  Is this even possible?
[11:02] <chump> DX00 : what is your mount command
[11:02] <vic2> jrib, i mean like dreamweaver, flash 8, etc
[11:02] <bruenig> walkintome, for the first question that is
[11:02] <chump> ?
[11:02] <DShepherd> piNNoy: have you tried installing gnome-compiz-manager..?
[11:03] <DX00> i get it as soon as i put a dvd into the drive
[11:03] <piNNoy> no where do i get that and how do i install it?
[11:03] <walkintome> bruenig: theres no way to move it over? i love the theme i have no..the buttons are just not in the right spot
[11:03] <walkintome> now*
[11:03] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: sorry bad paste : try http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/?go=devices
[11:03] <bruenig> vic2, shockwave I assume you are asking can only be accessed through wine, so install firefox.exe through wine and then get macromedia on that
[11:03] <DX00> i don't manually mount it
[11:03] <DX00> but i only get with data cds
[11:03] <jrib> vic2: adobe doesn't provide native linux versions of those applications, you'd need to try to get them to work in wine or something similar I suppose
[11:03] <DX00> if i put a movie, it will read it fine
[11:03] <bruenig> vic2, for dreamweaver you might consider wineing that if you can if not, get nvu or some other editor
[11:04] <r4nge> how would i remove the graphic effects when i minimize a window in ubuntu gnome?
[11:04] <Riyonuk> I cannot seem to install Ubuntu. I checked the CD for defects and found none. When its installing the Choose and Install software, it hangs at 6%
[11:04] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: give it time, hanging at 6% is natural
[11:04] <icecube_> hi guys
[11:04] <Guitrokr> thoreauputic| says im supported
[11:04] <chump> DX00 can you go see the cdrom line in the fstab file ?
[11:04] <jrib> r4nge: you can use /apps/metacity/general/reduced_resources in gconf-editor
[11:05] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, I did, gave it a whole day and it said Install could not be completed
[11:05] <dunstabulos> delta___: thanks, i'll make a note of that but i solved the problem by navigating using the ip address and connecting with a username for the minute
[11:05] <Guitrokr> and like i said i ccan see my wireless networks and it tells me i have 100% strength on some
[11:05] <Guitrokr> and they aren't password protected
[11:05] <Riyonuk> I listen to my CD Drive, and it makes like a chainsaw starting up, and turning off
[11:05] <r4nge> jrib: k, i'll take a look
[11:05] <DX00> let me see
[11:05] <icecube_> i'm installing superkaramba but have a problem.. i having this error..checking for KDE... configure: error:
[11:05] <icecube_> in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail.
[11:05] <icecube_> So, check this please and use another prefix!
[11:05] <chump> dx00 : /dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0    /// must be something like that
[11:05] <drummer> Do any of you know ANYTHING about printers and Feisty?  I cannot get my HP 4050 to print.
[11:05] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: OK, try   sudo modprobe bcm43xx , the do   sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart  and see if it works then
[11:05] <Guitrokr> ok
[11:06] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: livecd or text?
[11:06] <georgy> icecube_ : you need the dev package
[11:06] <stefg> !printing | drummer
[11:06] <ubotu> drummer: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[11:06] <icecube_> but i already installed that georgy?
[11:06] <chump> can someone help me i got this bug https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/4258 but the solution doesn't fix my problem
[11:06] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, umm, its the 6.10 alt cd
[11:06] <georgy> icecube : the kde dev package
[11:06] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: you haven't set up anything in Networking, right? nm-applet needs to control the wireless ( doesn't like static configuration)
[11:06] <DX00> i would look under /etc/fstab right?
[11:06] <drummer> stefg: I am currently unable to print with my HP LJ 4050.  During install the printer was seen and appeared to install correctly, and is connected to LPT parport0 HPLIP.  If I try to print a test page, the system says it's printing, but nothing comes out.  When I cat the last entry in the error_log under /var/log/cups it reads  cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found!
[11:06] <drummer> .  HELP!!!!
[11:06] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: hmm, my first guess would be a hardware issue, try the fiesty alt
[11:06] <erstazi> how does one get a mass load of Ubuntu cd's?
[11:07] <icecube_> yes, georgy i did it
[11:07] <thoreauputic> erstazi:  shipit.ubuntu.com
[11:07] <stefg> drummer: time for a bug report
[11:07] <erstazi> thoreauputic, I thought you need to be part of a LoCo team though
[11:07] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, I dont want to, I installed 7.10 alt, and my wireless card wasnt supported, althout its supported in earlier versions :/
[11:07] <thoreauputic> erstazi: depends how many you need I guess
[11:07] <georgy> icecube_, : the kde-headers ?
[11:07] <chump> DX00 yeah you can go in console and do :cat /etc/fstab
[11:07] <vak> hi all
[11:08] <guachos> hi
[11:08] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: so you've installed 6.10 before?
[11:08] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, Yes I have :D
[11:08] <drummer> stefg:  wow that's useful!  Thanks.
[11:08] <vak> how to downgrade php5.2.1 to the last 5.1.x?
[11:08] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: same CD?
[11:08] <icecube_> yes i think so.. i installed it via synaptic
[11:08] <thoreauputic> erstazi: or contact your loco about it ( another possibility)
[11:08] <peter77> I've installed VMplayer, how do I create a virtual machine?
[11:08] <icecube_> what do you suggest georgy
[11:08] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, no its not, some blank cd's a friend gave me
[11:08] <Riyonuk> there clean
[11:09] <georgy> icecube_, : one second, i search
[11:09] <erstazi> thoreauputic, I might have to do that. 3 cd limit unless I order multiple times but that would cost more shipping so I won't do that
[11:09] <icecube_> ok georgy
[11:09] <thoreauputic> peter77: http://www.easyvmx.com/
[11:09] <hype_> http://www.ubuntu.com/news/dell-to-offer-ubuntu
[11:09] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: try burning at the lower speed setting
[11:09] <hype_> awesome :)
[11:09] <SmileyChris> noob question: how can I use apt-get to update bazaar to the latest version (I'm using dapper)?
[11:09] <peter77> thanx
[11:09] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, I did, 4x
[11:09] <catid> hello.. i have a major problem with the fan support in linux.  the fastest fan mode is never used, so my graphics card overheats and passively throttles itself down to avoid death
[11:09] <rmd_> whoever gave me that metadiff script: i love you
[11:09] <pike_> peter77: there are websites that will help you create the file. player cant just point to an iso and boot though like server or workstation
[11:10] <Guitrokr> thoreauputic| I tried what you said it still doesn't connect it just shows the icon for attempting a connection
[11:10] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: livecd give you the same problem?
[11:10] <stefg> drummer: i'm not responsible for the lazy quality control of ubuntu... this seems to be a permission  prob
[11:10] <delf0s> anyone know how to add a modprobe command at startup... so i dont have to keep typing he command in at terminal?
[11:11] <Riyonuk> livecd never works, and it takes forever to start
[11:11] <sven> Who I am?
[11:11] <georgy> icecube_, : try kdebase-dev
[11:11] <Riyonuk> I have a worthless pc :p
[11:11] <bruenig> delf0s, you can put it in /etc/rc.local
[11:11] <peter77> hmm, I expected VMware to also creat VM's like parallels for mac
[11:11] <catid> i have not found a way to set the fan speed myself.  i've read through acpi docs and played with lm-sensors.  there is not a /proc or /sys interface for the fan speed
[11:11] <naknomik_> Is there a way to browse the list of packages available for 6.06 LTS on the web?
[11:11] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: even with the noapci option?
[11:11] <erUSUL> delf0s: add the name of the module to /etc/modules and it will be modprobed at startup
[11:11] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: running out of ideas , sorry - mine worked fine after installing cafuego's deb for the firmware
[11:11] <|ericsson|> catid: wouldn't you have BIOS settings to maximize usage of fan voltage control?
[11:11] <bruenig> naknomik_, packages.ubuntu.com perhaps
[11:11] <Guitrokr> damn
[11:11] <catid> using apm instead of acpi doesn't help
[11:11] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, wha? Theres options? how?
[11:11] <icecube_> georgy, i give it a shot..
[11:11] <Wiiman> S
[11:12] <chump> DX00 you got it ?
[11:12] <catid> |ericsson|: i'll check that next
[11:12] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: make sure that your /etc/network/interfaces file has *only* the loopback (lo) stanza
[11:12] <kamal> can some one tell me how can i find drivers for my webcam, for ubuntuu? am using hp pavillon webcam
[11:12] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: yes, when you boot the cd, i think pressing the F2 key brings them up, not entirely sure
[11:12] <catid> |ericsson|: thing is it worked under windows fine so i assume it's not a BIOS problem
[11:12] <naknomik_> Now, what is the code name for 6.06? Edgy?
[11:13] <Riyonuk> Which version should I get? Im going to download a new one.
[11:13] <Rossimo> dapper
[11:13] <drummer> stefg: I pretty much had that part figured out.  Something is not listed properly under the groups lpadmin and/or cups, but i do not know how to fix it.  Reporting it as a bug means another 1-3 days with the same problem and no solution.  I need one soon or I have to go to another distro that works.
[11:13] <cyzie> hello, due to network pretty slow, is it workable if i download 7.04 CD and upgrade my existing 6.10 using the cd?
[11:13] <Dave_is_sexy> using dpkg i'd like to install an ap which wants an older version of python. i wanna say "ignore, the new version is fine". can i? i'm sure it'll work
[11:13] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: nm wants to control the connection, so all configuration in the /etc/network/interfaces file should be removed or commented out except the loopback interface
[11:13] <|ericsson|> catid: probably not, worth checking though..
[11:13] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, what version is that?
[11:13] <stefg> drummer: going back to edgy (or maybe etch?) would be my proposititon
[11:14] <Riyonuk> I like 6.10 as I know it has the wireless working
[11:14] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: any version, i believe
[11:14] <|ericsson|> cyzie: Yes, or you can order CD's from http://shipit.ubuntu.com
[11:14] <ward_> can someone take a look at this please? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18673/ i tried to install veejay on feisty, this is the last lines of the output
[11:15] <stefg> drummer: and unless you don't report the bug, you won't get it fixed
[11:15] <sven> Is this the right channel to ask installation or live CD trouble (feisty final)?
[11:15] <Riyonuk> Well why doesnt the newest version work?
[11:15] <ferran> how can change name of my computer with ubuntu 7.04?
[11:15] <SmileyChris> So how do I update bzr to latest version - it seems to think the latest is 0.8 when it's like 1.5
[11:15] <cyzie> |ericsson|, that will take time. but have u done upgrade your distro from 6.10 to 7.04 ?
[11:15] <georgy> ward_, : install mpegjtools
[11:15] <|ericsson|> ferran: I assume you mean hostname?
[11:15] <eztk> http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6610901.stm       <dell to use Ubuntu.. Woo Hoo
[11:15] <cables> sven, yep
[11:15] <ward_> georgy: mjpegtools are installed
[11:16] <|ericsson|> cyzie: yes, I've done that, works fine
[11:16] <drummer> stefg: yeah I'm afraid that's what i'll have to do, but damn I like some of Feisty's features.
[11:16] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: your wireless, or the boot options?
[11:16] <stefg> drummer: so time for a bug report :-)
[11:16] <Guitrokr> thoreauputic| i've done that
[11:16] <Riyonuk> Wireless, like in System > Networking, the wireless option isnt even there
[11:16] <Guitrokr> it was one of many steps in a previous runthrough i followed
[11:16] <sven> Ah, as I'm reading the entries.... I'm not the only one, xserver fails even with live CD.... But feisty BETA works great! Mmmh...
[11:17] <cyzie> thanks |ericsson|
[11:17] <|ericsson|> cyzie: no problem @ all
[11:17] <naknomik_> What would be a good choice of web server for serving simple static pages, and nothing fancy.
[11:17] <|ericsson|> sven: feisty stable would be better than the best ;)
[11:17] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: try booting the 6.10 livecd with the nopaci option first, and see if that will install, not sure what the feisty issue is
[11:18] <pike_> naknomik_: apache2? seriously stay with apache if its simple all the better itll be a gentle intro
[11:18] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: you didn't use ndiswrapper before? I believe you have to diable that for the bcm43xx to work
[11:18] <thoreauputic> *disable
[11:18] <cables> My HD makes a distinctive noise when you hard shutdown the machine. It doesn't make that noise when you shut it down properly. Since the Feisty upgrade, my HD has been making that noise whenever I shutdown... it seems like it's not stopping the HD before powering off the machine.
[11:19] <sven> ericsson: Sorry, but that's the trouble.... the final crashes the xserver. The BETA worked OK! I checked the CD as usual,... mmmh,
[11:19] <Guitrokr> no i dont even have ndiswrapper
[11:19] <Kube> Hello, I downloaded RealPlayer 10 from real.com and installed it on my Ubuntu 6.06, video files are playing but with no sound... what can I do to enable the sound in RealPlayer 10...
[11:19] <ward_> can someone take a look at this please? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18673/ i tried to install veejay on feisty, this is the last lines of the output

[11:20] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: what does  sudo iwlist scan   report for your card ?
[11:20] <Riyonuk> Rossimo, but do you get what Im talking about? How its supposed to have the icon up there? It has Modem and Ethernet, but no wireless :(
[11:20] <jenda> could someone give me a hint what command to use to resize an NTFS partition to 100 GiB when gparted doesn't want to?
[11:20] <Kube> stefg i installed all RestrictedFormats
[11:20] <stefg> Kube: there's an ubuntu-package for that. rather us it
[11:20] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: see if it is actually getting anything...
[11:20] <stefg> *use
[11:20] <georgy> icecube_, : same think, you need the python-dev package
[11:20] <chump> how does my home dir change permission without me doing it ?
[11:21] <ward_> georgy: mjpegtools are installed
[11:21] <Kube> stefg: does Helix Player play .rm video files ?
[11:21] <clusterm1gnet> guys, what the hald daemon for?  i know its for hardware abstraction, but what does that entail?
[11:21] <Rossimo> Riyonuk: it may  be that particular kernel, i'm not sure, but if you know edgy works, then install it while trying the boot options
[11:21] <stefg> Kube: no
[11:21] <Guitrokr>  it reports me lots of network connections and their bit rates and whether they are password protected
[11:21] <clusterm1gnet> is it for hotplugging usb devices for example?
[11:21] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: sounds right then
[11:21] <stefg> !commercial
[11:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about commercial - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:21] <Riyonuk> Ok, so press F2 and type nopci?
[11:22] <Guitrokr> yeah
[11:22] <walkintome> hi all! i hope someone can help me figure out why any font I choose in firefox looks like this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png
[11:22] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: can you get an IP with  sudo dhclient <your-interface> ?
[11:22] <stefg> Kube: canonicl has a 'commercial' repository where you can apt-get realplayer
[11:22] <mjr> clusterm1gnet, for example; it can report what type of devices they are to apps, direct them to them. Also media insertions and removals and such.
[11:22] <clusterm1gnet> mjr: so its a good thing to load at boot, eh?
[11:22] <Guitrokr> what is my interface going to be thoreauputic?
[11:22] <mjr> clusterm1gnet, yes
[11:22] <clusterm1gnet> mjr: for some reason my laptop halts when starting hal daemon, halts for about 2 minutes
[11:22] <clusterm1gnet> then continues on
[11:22] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: usually eth1 with broadcom cards
[11:22] <Kube> stefg: okay, let me check.
[11:22] <sven> Does anybody know how to contact the ubuntu guys to help them to solve an installation problem? I'm really sure that it is one.
[11:22] <clusterm1gnet> mjr: thanks!
[11:22] <Rossimo> Riyonku: noacpi, sry
[11:22] <Guitrokr> oh its wlan0 for me

[11:25] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: no encryption, right?
[11:25] <Guitrokr> nope
[11:25] <Dreamglider> how long should it take to create two ext3 partions on a harddisk ?
[11:26] <Dreamglider> (with gparted)
[11:26] <georgy> icecube_, : have fun too
[11:26] <neft> whats the command to register a nick?
[11:26] <pike_> Dreamglider: cfdisk or fdisk then mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda2 or whatever
[11:26] <pike_> Dreamglider: if you have to resize you need to boot livecd and run gparted
[11:26] <stefg> Kube: see the documentation ... i think it's callng the installer with --uninstall, or something similar
[11:27] <Fredle> but don't trust resize too mutch..
[11:27] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: sorry, I can't think of anything else to try - but it sounds like the card is actually working, so it must be a configuration issue
[11:27] <neft> can anyone tell me the command to register a nick?
[11:27] <stefg> !register
[11:27] <Dreamglider> it's a usb harddisk i  need to make a FAT32 partion but it wont let me so im trying to make a ext3 instead
[11:27] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[11:27] <neft> ok tx
[11:27] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: does iwlait tell you that the signal is OK ?
[11:27] <deadeyez> hi all, when I do sudo apt-get update then all I get always "Forbidden"
[11:27] <thoreauputic> *iwlist
[11:27] <deadeyez> Anyone who knows how to solve this?
[11:28] <Fredle> Dreamglider, beacause vfat don't support big partities
[11:28] <Guitrokr> yeah one last thing thoreauputic is that when i do iwconfig i get access-point:invalid as one of the lines
[11:28] <Dreamglider> Fredle, i made the partion 50Gb !
[11:28] <Dreamglider> is that to big ?
[11:28] <Fredle> nope, won't do
[11:28] <neft> !register
[11:28] <Fredle> way to big
[11:28] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[11:28] <Guitrokr> and yes it says three of my signals coming in are over 85% on of them is 100%
[11:28] <z9999> I've run into a problem trying to install the latest ver of alsa, anyone here able to provide some assistance?
[11:28] <Dreamglider> what's the maximum =
[11:28] <chrisjw> how do i make a .deb
[11:29] <Fredle> don't remember, but it realy isn't a -great number
[11:29] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: hmm - iwlist wlan0 scan should say something about the access point IIRC
[11:29] <eternaljoy> accordiong to this website I need to recompile my kernel to get my TV USB to work.  Can someone tell me exactly how I do that? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/95277
[11:29] <fangorious> I tried to install the latest 1.0.9x legacy nvidia driver on feisty, and it's complaining about the kernel api/interface being 1.0.7x, how can I fix that
[11:29] <fangorious> ?
[11:30] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: I'm surprised that you are seeing wlan0 - my broadcom card shows as eth1 here
[11:30] <Fredle> Dreamglider, it's 4GB
[11:30] <Guitrokr> i changed it
[11:30] <Guitrokr> to wlan0 manually
[11:31] <Guitrokr> part of one of the runthroughs
[11:31] <Guitrokr> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18684/
[11:31] <Guitrokr> i don't know if that helps thoreauputic
[11:31] <Dreamglider> Fredle,  what about ntfs
[11:31] <stefg> !kernel | eternaljoy
[11:31] <ubotu> eternaljoy: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[11:31] <Dreamglider> can i backup my laptop hd to a ntfs drive with ubuntu ?
[11:31] <ryanakca> I can play sound, but I can't record. I have a 00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2) alsa-driver-1.0.14_rc3
[11:32] <Guitrokr> wlan0     No scan results
[11:32] <LjL> deadeyez: "forbidden"? isn't the actual message a bit more verbose?
[11:32] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: well, I tried :) I think you should be able to get it working from the info you have given so far
[11:32] <Aw0L> how can I create multiple directories in a path at once?  like 'mkdir /var/newdir1/newdir2/etc...'?
[11:32] <chili555> Guitrokr run as sudo?
[11:32] <apecat> i've tried to install xfonts-terminus, but it doesn't show up on any fonts lists, even after restarting x (in fact rebooting)
[11:32] <Fredle> Dreamglider, ntfs will do the job.. but it isn't realy great to get  ntfs and to mount it on linux
[11:32] <Guitrokr>  Quality=92/100  Signal level=-58 dBm  Noise level=-64 dBm

[11:33] <ryanakca> I can play sound, but I can't record. I have a "00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)" and so need 'alsa-driver-1.0.14_rc3' according to http://kac.duf.hu/~balage/doksik/asus-a6m-q074.html . On feisty, the version I have is: 1.0.13-3ubuntu1 . Any idea where I can find the newer version?
[11:33] <Guitrokr> i got that forthe scan for my best signal
[11:33] <Fredle> btw...  I don't remember how I did it, but I've got my usbdisk of 180gb formatted as vfat
[11:33] <Dreamglider> what do you recomend ?
[11:33] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: so it is there and working apparently
[11:33] <Fredle> that was with macosx
[11:33] <Guitrokr> yes
[11:33] <Guitrokr> haha which is why im so baffled
[11:33] <ankit> aWoL: mkdir -p /var/temp/whatever
[11:33] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: try pinging something
[11:33] <Guitrokr> in nework tools?
[11:33] <jenda> Could someone please check for me - will "sudo parted /dev/sdb1 resize 0 120000" resize a partition to start at the start of the disk and end at 120 GB (approx)?
[11:33] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr:  ping google.com
[11:34] <Fredle> you prob. use ext..  there are some great driver out there for windows to get ext working on it
[11:34] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: or ping something on your network first
[11:34] <Fredle> I know some people who got windows installed on ext3
[11:34] <Fredle> and it seems to wrok better then on ntfs or fat ;-)
[11:34] <Guitrokr> 5requests and i got times and bars and 100% succesful packets haha
[11:35] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: *cough* then you are connected
[11:35] <kimat> yes i am
[11:35] <Guitrokr> haha i KNOW! this is why im so confused
[11:35] <Fredle> so..  ext3 won't be a great problem if you don't want to mount it with macosx
[11:35] <Guitrokr> i try to unpug the wired connection and connect to the network and i get nothng
[11:35] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: is it just that nm-applet is still rotating?
[11:35] <opu1> has anybody had issues with the partitioner during install of ubuntu not recognizing existing partitions, the installer keeps wanting me to reformat the entire drive
[11:35] <Guitrokr> yeah it stays grey
[11:36] <Guitrokr> and never connects, then gives u
[11:36] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: sometimes you need to disconnect and reconnect from the applet
[11:36] <l3ct0r> Can anyone tell me how i can find the total ram supported by the motherboard on which I am running ubuntu?
[11:36] <Guitrokr> like restart the applet you mean?
[11:36] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: ie disable/re-enable networking
[11:36] <Guitrokr> ok
[11:36] <l3ct0r> is there a way to do it using `lshw`?
[11:36] <Guitrokr> i'llgive a shot
[11:36] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: right click, disable, then re-enable

[11:44] <jron> hello, I just finished setting up ubuntu 7.04; I then isntalled the fluxbox package and loaded it up through gdm... when into the fluxbox desktop, right clicking the desktop for the menu brings up nothing other than the fluxbox logo; no fbrun, no application list etc....
[11:44] <jron> this didn't happen on my previous ubuntu install, what is the deal? =(
[11:44] <Riyonuk> Since I know my wirelss card is supported in 6.10, after configuring it, even though it doesnt work while installing, would it be possible to do an internet install or whatever its called
[11:44] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: OK - I'm a bit far away to troubleshoot for you ;p But it looks like you are nearly there judging by the iwlist scan output you are getting
[11:44] <Guitrokr> yes i know im so baffled by this
[11:44] <Guitrokr> haha
[11:45] <GrueTamer> jron: thats a weird problem, i personally havent had it happen to me
[11:45] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: maybe consult geek friends, or your local LUG
[11:45] <GrueTamer> since im not that good with fluxbox...try deleting it and reinstalling it or something
[11:45] <GrueTamer> but if you want me to, i can get out of gnome and get into fluxbox for easier help
[11:45] <Guitrokr> haha i don't have any friends with linux, im the one and only i know
[11:46] <thoreauputic> Guitrokr: or try the mailing list perhaps

[11:56] <ryanakca> I can play sound, but I can't record. I have a "00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)" and so need 'alsa-driver-1.0.14_rc3' according to http://kac.duf.hu/~balage/doksik/asus-a6m-q074.html . On feisty, the version I have is: 1.0.13-3ubuntu1 . Any idea where I can find the newer version?
[11:57] <Lobosque> I have just installed a new HD with windows, and now, when i trty to boot my HD with linux, i get this error after grub loads the ubuntu: "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off". what should I do now??
[11:57] <mobutu> mwe: my sound does not work after hibernation, i have to reboot.  what am i doing wrong?
[11:57] <deadeyez> hi all, how can I disable a proxy that I have set with "export HTTP_PROXY" for apt-get?
[11:57] <mwe> mobutu: I don't know
[11:57] <francois_> i've got a 60gig usb drive that i want to search for all mpg filetypes, how can i do this ?
[11:57] <smileboot> mwe ive been having problems with LOADS of javascript sites
[11:58] <deadeyez> found it:p
[11:58] <thoreauputic> h4wk:  4328 is not listed at http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/?go=devices
[11:58] <pike_> francois_: locate -u will work to update locate but: find /media/usb -name *.mpg  will work also i guess
[11:58] <ice_cream> francois_, cd into the directory, then ls | grep mpg
[11:58] <Riyonuk> Where can I get Ubuntu torrents?
[11:58] <smileboot> forums travel sites and random java advert thingies that just leave a huge blank space on the screen covering up text
[11:58] <mwe> Lobosque: sounds like it want bash. link /bin/sh to bash if you don't mind
[11:58] <Ashex|srv> !torrents Riyonuk
[11:58] <Ashex|srv> !torrents > Riyonuk
[11:59] <mwe> smileboot: I see
[11:59] <Lobosque> mwe what is bash? and how do i link to bash?
[11:59] <ice_cream> oh, if you have the files in sub directories, then use find, as pike_  said
[11:59] <h4wk> So that means thoreauputic - Its not possible?
[11:59] <francois_> ice_cream: thanks but i want to search the whole drive, not just a directory, i think pike has the idea, thanks though
[11:59] <mwe> smileboot: try opera, maybe
[11:59] <Ashex|srv> bah, just go to ubuntu.com and click the download button
[11:59] <francois_> pike_: thanks :)
[11:59] <smileboot> hmm good idea
[11:59] <smileboot> that aint free tho is it :(
[11:59] <mwe> Lobosque: can you boot your system at all?
[11:59] <thoreauputic> h4wk: I don't know - are you sure you have a broadcom wifi card ?
[11:59] <mwe> smileboot: it is
[12:00] <smileboot> ooooh yay for free linux versions of software :D
[12:00] <lufis> Can anyone help me with my HP scanner? It's a pretty old piece of hardware (2000-ish). Using it in Windows worked very well. It works in Kooka and XScan but the colors are too contrast-y and there are bright lines interspaced on the images.
[12:00] <h4wk> thoreauputic:  Windows Vista device manager says i do
[12:00] <Lobosque> mwe no, it stops at 1/10 of the boot progress and give me what i said
[12:00] <mwe> smileboot: free, as in you don't have to pay to use it
[12:00] <thoreauputic> h4wk: maybe it is very recent and unsupported in Linux ( just guessing)
[12:00] <Riyonuk> What cd burning software should I use, Im on windows
[12:00] <lufis> Riyonuk: for what purpose?
[12:00] <thoreauputic> h4wk: you might have to use ndiswrapper
[12:01] <h4wk> I did only buy the laptop a couple of months ago
