[12:01] <mwe> Lobosque: escuse me, but you can you boot your system at all?
[12:01] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:01] <ice_cream> francois_, yea, you could also simply cd in, and "find . | grep mp3"
[12:01] <Riyonuk> To burn the Ubuntu ISO
[12:01] <ice_cream> i love grep lol
[12:01] <ice_cream> er.. mpg
[12:01] <lufis> Riyonuk: nero, if you've got it. just a sec...
[12:01] <Malfist> Is there a good program for Ubuntu to mount ISO's?
[12:01] <Lobosque> mwe if what i have just said to you is not what you ask, i don't know what are you asking for
[12:02] <kane77> Malfist, isofs
[12:02] <francois_> ice_cream: and that will find all my files not just in the first directory ?
[12:02] <thoreauputic> Malfist: you can open ISO in file-roller
[12:02] <ice_cream> i guess the -name switch takes care of it
[12:02] <Riyonuk> lufis, ok
[12:02] <thoreauputic> Malfist: it's installed by default - or you can  do  sudo mount -o loop file.iso
[12:02] <smileboot> i just wish evrything just worked :(
[12:02] <mwe> Lobosque: I don't know when you get that messgae. You haven't told me.
[12:03] <nekomancer> !pastebin
[12:03] <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)
[12:03] <thoreauputic> Malfist: umm...  sudo mount -o loop file.iso /mount/point
[12:03] <Malfist> thoreautic, okay, is there way I can add it to a right click?
[12:03] <smileboot> i hate having to fiddle with stuff for basic stuff   my printer woes i can deal with  but javascript not working sucks
[12:03] <lufis> Riyonuk: do you have nero?

[12:03] <Riyonuk> is it free?
[12:03] <lufis> Riyonuk: i don't think so, unless it's a free trial
[12:03] <Malfist> thoreauputic mount point would be like /media/ISOfileName
[12:03] <kamme> hi, I'm using feisty and I'm unable to play dvd's. I've installed libdvdcss2 but totem and vlc always crash, can someone help me?
[12:03] <thoreauputic> Malfist: yes
[12:04] <TECH_1> I cant get my resolution past 800...what happened?
[12:04] <ice_cream> "find . -name foo" appears to be equivalent to "find . | grep foo"
[12:04] <Malfist> thoreauputic, okay thanks
[12:04] <thoreauputic> Malfist: you have to create that dir of course
[12:04] <Malfist> thoreauputic, okay
[12:04] <lufis> Riyonuk: there is a free app, im trying to find the page that goes thru step by step
[12:04] <Ashex|srv> Riyonuk, google cd burner xp
[12:04] <Malfist> quit problem solved
[12:04] <mwe> tok1: if you haven't tried, change your mirrors to archichive.ubunto.com instead of foo.archive.ubuntu.com
[12:05] <Lobosque> mwe as i told, i get this message when the ubuntu loading progress bar is at 10% of its total.
[12:05] <Ashex|srv> it's a gpl cd/dvd burning software suite :D

[12:06] <sebas_> kbrooks, do you know one?
[12:06] <enry> i have a problem with my wireless card, with no reason i have to intall the driver every time i boot the pc to make it work!!!
[12:07] <kamme> francois_: format it in fat32, or enable ntfs write under linux
[12:07] <odat> anyone in here able to build a deb package?
[12:07] <mwe> !msgthebot | TECH_1
[12:07] <ubotu> TECH_1: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[12:07] <lufis> francois_: you can format it in ext3 and install an ext3 driver for windows. depends on which system youd be using more
[12:07] <kbrooks> sebas_, python-irclib
[12:07] <bgrupe> francois_ format it as ntfs under windows and install ntfs-config in ubuntu and enable write support
[12:07] <giovanni> does anyone know if you have to completely uninstall and then reinstall the stable version of 7.04 if you alreayd had the beta, or will all the updates convert it?
[12:07] <francois_> kamme: how do i format in fat32 from ubuntu, i guess is what i'm asking
[12:07] <enry> i use ndiswrapper
[12:07] <sebas_> thanks
[12:07] <chevdor> hellop

[12:08] <dac_> have  ubuntu 6.06 here,when I downloadubuntu 7.04, does it replace 6.06?
[12:08] <zeth_> exit
[12:08] <kamme> francois_: in a terminal you can type: sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/XXX
[12:08] <lufis> francois_: ah, then ntfs would be the best choice, as another user mentioned
[12:08] <UbuntuNoobie> hello
[12:08] <edmondt> dac_ I think you should do a fresh install
[12:09] <kamme> francois_: you do have to know the device name ( /dev/XXX )
[12:09] <francois_> kamme: got it, thanks

[12:09] <cyphase> Has everyone in here heard about Dell choosing to install Ubuntu on their new Linux computers?
[12:09] <mwe> francois_: supposing you've partioned the drive with cfdisk or similar, mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/<drive>

[12:15] <kayef> Cosmo_: have u tried setting it in sounds under preference?
[12:15] <zerqent> UbuntuNoobie: the driver on the webpage is "xserver-xorg-fglrx".. you need that for 3d-acceleration
[12:15] <JP_> and i only have 800 * 600 resolution, not the fullscreen. my video driver is an ati x700 card. i am glad that compiz works now, so i dont want to change that. i also reconfigured xserver and added the resolution 1280 * 800 but that doenst work
[12:16] <JP_> ok cables sorry my bad

[12:18] <francois_> rodrigo: theres a ubuntu-es chanel :)
[12:19] <JP_> cables is there a beta driver for mobile ati cards? i've allready tried the defailt driver, the restricted driver and the fgrlx driver
[12:19] <UbuntuNoobie> zerqent:  also, i read somewhere about editing the resolutions in xorg.conf? (because my issue is that the higher resolution is not listed)
[12:19] <cables> JP_, I don't know.
[12:19] <tok1> tks  off to try again
[12:19] <thoreauputic> Ubuntulator: the one from the website is secret sauce ;p
[12:19] <JP_> UbuntuNoobie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto i am also reading it
[12:19] <francois_> UbuntuNoobie: well you can edit your Xorg.conf file to add the resolution that you need
[12:19] <UbuntuNoobie> thank you JP
[12:19] <thoreauputic> umm sorry UbuntuNoobie  that was meant for you above
[12:19] <JP_> UbuntuNoobie: i also tried to edit it manually, but didn't work out for me...
[12:20] <Jordan_U> Ubuntulator, It may be more likely that you just don't have the correct drivers for your card, what kind of card do you have ( ATi, Intel, Nvidia ) ?
[12:20] <UbuntuNoobie> JP. i tried to edit it as well, and i acctually lost my 1024x768 res, and defaulted to 800x600. so maybe i did something wrong?
[12:21] <nexous> Hi, how do I check why conky won't start?
[12:21] <Jordan_U> UbuntuNoobie, It may be more likely that you just don't have the correct drivers for your card, what kind of card do you have ( ATi, Intel, Nvidia ) ?
[12:21] <kayef> nexous: wat do u mean it wont start?
[12:21] <Jordan_U> How do I reset my gnome panels back to default ( where in ~ are the config files stored ) ?
[12:22] <nexous> kayef: well, on startup it won't run, the session was added, and i tried running conky via Alt F2, and it won't popup,.
[12:22] <cables> Jordan_U, it's in gconf (hit alt-f2, type gconf-editor) under apps/panel/
[12:22] <UbuntuNoobie> JORDan: ATI radeon 9550
[12:22] <cables> Jordan_U, I'm not sure there's a way to reset them, I haven't found where in ~ the settings are stored.
[12:22] <Jordan_U> Ubuntulator, Have you tried the restricted driver manager yet?
[12:22] <jeffwheeler> Can Ubuntu integrate into LDAP networks as smoothly as SUSE; I'm pretty sure it allows you to just login as an LDAP user directly into gdm.
[12:22] <nexous> Actually, I will reboot first.
[12:23] <jeffwheeler> Where should I look for info about that?
[12:23] <kayef> nexous: u never got it to run?
[12:23] <nexous> kayef: Well, I only logged out and signed back in, I'm rebooting now.
[12:23] <Jordan_U> cables, I thought I remembered that if they were deleted they would be restored back to default
[12:23] <soundray> Jordan_U: $HOME/.gconf/apps/panel
[12:24] <Jordan_U> soundray, Thanks :)
[12:24] <kayef> nexous: for me....after installation, i could start conky straight away by jus typing conky in command line
[12:24] <soundray> Jordan_U: I think you have to delete it while gnome is not running.
[12:24] <Jordan_U> soundray, Can I just delete it then reload gnome-panel ?
[12:25] <cables> Jordan_U, as far as I know, that should work. You may  want to back up to be sure.
[12:25] <soundray> Jordan_U: I don't think so, but there's no harm in trying.
[12:25] <n0d0> hi
[12:25] <soundray> Jordan_U: I mean, as long as your old panel config is dispensable.
[12:26] <abo> can anyone help me start my Apache... after upgrading to Fiesty it's not starting anymore!

[12:29] <jeffwheeler> Where could I find information on integrating LDAP with gdm?
[12:29] <soundray> scubasteve: you also have to have a SATA controller to connect it to, but perhaps that's obvious

[12:30] <thoreauputic> abo: you have a config problem, evidently
[12:30] <abo> thoreauputic, can you help me if I paste it in the paste bin?
[12:30] <ziggy23> yes, I do have Windows on it too.
[12:30] <thoreauputic> abo: not really - I know very little about apache, sorry
[12:31] <thoreauputic> abo: maybe try #apache
[12:31] <abo> thoreauputic, ok I'll do thx
[12:31] <soundray> ziggy23: if you remove that, you get rid of all actual and potential virus problems.
[12:31] <frederick85> does anyone know how i can defrag my hardrive with ubuntu
[12:32] <ziggy23> Everyone says that Linux is safer for viruses.  Is that really true?
[12:32] <soundray> frederick85: backup, delete the partition and restore. Defragging is not needed, unless you are using fat32 (not recommended)
[12:32] <Daviey> ziggy23, currently - yes
[12:32] <soundray> ziggy23: well, there aren't any known Linux viruses in the wild.
[12:33] <karimfayez> where can i find help about irc??
[12:33] <Chris_XY> ehmmm you mean, not much
[12:33] <frederick85> soundray, i don't have room to backup
[12:33] <cables> I installed vmware-player and dpkg threw up an error. Now I can't remove vmware-player.
[12:33] <Chris_XY> afaik there are some
[12:33] <soundray> ziggy23: you can still contract a virus infection if you run wine or Windows in a virtual machine.
[12:33] <bobbob1016> anyone know how to do a netboot install?  I've tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/WindowsServerNetboot but the server doesn't have the files needed according to the installer
[12:34] <soundray> frederick85: go and buy a hard drive or other medium for backing up. It's good practice. Data you haven't backed up is data you don't want.
[12:34] <ziggy23> I feel like such an idiot tho.  Are there any good resources for Ubuntu newbies?
[12:34] <frederick85> soundray, isn't there just a way to defrag the hard drive?
[12:34] <JP_> ziggy23: IRC is, what do you need to know?
[12:34] <soundray> frederick85: what filesystems are you using?
[12:34] <frederick85> soundray, when $$$ comes into it i'm not interested
[12:35] <frederick85> soundray, ext3 i assume
[12:35] <ziggy23> Well, ok...coming from Windows, how do you navigate the file system in Ubuntu?
[12:35] <soundray> frederick85: ext3 doesn't fragment (except under extreme, theoretical circumstances). No defrag needed.
[12:35] <Flannel> ziggy23: PLaces > Computer... then navigate
[12:35] <Flannel> ziggy23: or places > Home, or whatever
[12:36] <thoreauputic> ziggy23: everything branches from /
[12:36] <frederick85> soundray, can it be defragmented anyway?
[12:36] <thoreauputic> ziggy23: no drive letters etc.
[12:36] <JP_> you can mount everything in ur 'tree'
[12:36] <soundray> ziggy23: it's a bit more complicated than the Windows C:, D:, E: system for naming drives. Look up the FHS (filesystem hierarchy standard)
[12:36] <soundray> frederick85: yes
[12:37] <JP_> even access your gmail as a folder in your file system
[12:37] <thoreauputic> ziggy23: if you want to see the whole "tree", hit ctfl+L in the file manager and type /
[12:37] <frederick85> soundray, what is the command because my drive was 100% full recently and i believe it could use a defragmentation
[12:37] <thoreauputic> umm Ctrl+L
[12:37] <soundray> frederick85: I've told you it isn't necessary. Now stop bothering me with defragging please.
[12:38] <thoreauputic> frederick85: defrag is not needed in Linux, end of story :)
[12:38] <dimas__> does any one know a good program for the "usb" or do i have to install one? cause i having problem having my webcam working
[12:38] <ziggy23> ok where is the / directory..  How do I find it?  I don't see anything that doesn't branch from /home.
[12:38] <nekomancer> ziggy23, why not use clamAV?
[12:38] <drivamgr2006> Yippee!  Say hello to a convert.  I have just come to ubuntu from some other crud linux distro, and I want to say from the outset, I am very, veyr impressed.
[12:38] <nekomancer> ziggy23, are you scanning linux or windows?
[12:39] <Flannel> ziggy23: you need to go up.  /home is inside of (and your homedir is inside of /home)
[12:39] <bobbob1016> dimas__, what do you mean "the usb"?
[12:39] <Flannel> ziggy23: er, "inside of /"
[12:39] <thoreauputic> ziggy23: do the ctrl+L as I suggested and type / in the field
[12:39] <bobbob1016> dimas__, your USB should be working, the webcam might not be
[12:39] <ziggy23> Scanning linux.  I know most of the windows stuff.
[12:39] <thoreauputic> ziggy23: you can also change your view in nautilus - check the preferences
[12:39] <drivamgr2006> I do need some help though.  First, how to I get ubuntu to install something I want, not on the disk though.  I would like tvtime or kdetv.
[12:40] <dimas__> bobbob1016 the porgrams tha use the webcam doesnt find the device
[12:40] <soundray> ziggy23: have a look at the pages that ubotu will link you to (by private message)
[12:40] <dimas__> and i find out is in a different location
[12:40] <soundray> !cli > ziggy23
[12:40] <soundray> !faq > ziggy23
[12:40] <bobbob1016> dimas__, if the webcam isn't, you need to google/search the forums/tell us the webcam type, I'm pretty sure the webcam is the problem, you need to find out how to get the webcam working, the USB is probably working
[12:41] <soundray> !fhs > ziggy23
[12:41] <bobbob1016> dimas__, also, make sure that webcam works with the programs you are trying to use

[12:43] <Raziekiel> For a linux newbie, should I stick to 32bit, or does 64bit work pretty good?
[12:43] <Andromalius> I have a bcm43xx...feisty has the restricted drivers built-in, but do I still need to insert the firmware to get it to work?
[12:43] <georgy> simman : yes
[12:43] <simman> How?

[12:44] <soundray> Raziekiel: 64bit works wonderfully. However certain warez aren't available for it, so many people prefer 32.
 sorry did /ame instead of /me :S
[12:44] <Raziekiel> hmm, well do most mainstream programs work, thinsg like flash etc
[12:44] <georgy> siman : is you network card recognize

[12:45] <bobbob1016> dimas__, I'm not sure what you mean "Different location"
[12:45] <georgy> simman : try in a console : sudo modprobe 3C509

[12:50] <georgy> kayef,: in the bios ?
[12:50] <FreshPrince> gn @ all
[12:51] <soundray> dimas__: what's under /proc isn't the "device special file". /dev/video0 or /dev/video1 are the device files where a webcam program can access the device. If you haven't got those, something is missing in your system. Read ubotu's pm and follow the guide.
[12:51] <z> Hello how can I set my monitor on 85Hz ?
[12:51] <soundray> !webcam > dimas__
[12:51] <soundray> !fixres > z, please read ubotu's private message.
[12:51] <kayef> georgy: u mean if i turn it off in bios then it will not be detected by ubuntu anymore?i'm not sure if my laptop has the option but i'll give it a try later
[12:51] <georgy> kayef : normaaly, you can disable your soundcard via bios

[12:52] <agresor> how to fixxxxx this ?
[12:52] <dimas__> soundray let me check it out
[12:52] <intelikey> ok i have the live CD for dapper, so i installed that.  then ran  >>> for Q in `dpkg -l | cut -d' ' -f3` ;do apt-get remove --purge -y $Q ;done ;apt-get install ubuntu-base <<<    so i should only have the same as the server install,   correct ?
[12:53] <javb> How can i know my Fax/Modem chipset if ScanModem wont detect it and my Laptop Manufaturer wont say the specs?
[12:53] <phreaky_> Hi guys. I got a little question. I use twinview, and the second monitor is my TV. And, i want to watch movies on my tv .. but i cannot watch the movie fullscreen on my tv, when i use fullscreen it's over both screens. Any1 know how i can watch the movie on only the TV ?
[12:53] <intelikey> so is 480M the right size for a console only system ?    /dev/root  4.0G  480M  3.3G  13% /   ???
[12:54] <BlueEagle> phreaky_: is xinerama on?
[12:54] <intelikey> seems bloated
[12:54] <openforlife> phreaky_, I fullsize them on one monitor with twinview.
[12:54] <soundray> agresor: sudo sh -c 'echo fglrx >>/etc/modules'
[12:54] <drivamgr2006> /server irc.ubuntu.org
[12:54] <BlueEagle> phreaky_: put your xorg.conf on pastebin please.
[12:54] <phreaky_> How do u do that openforlife?
[12:54] <phreaky_> BlueEagle: okey wait
[12:55] <vbabiy> hey guys is there a nice dock out there for gnome like the mac os x
[12:55] <ssam> intelikey, try running apt-get autoremove
[12:55] <soundray> agresor: this is the permanent solution. For now, you can also just run 'sudo modprobe fglrx'. See if that throws an error.
[12:55] <cables> I'm trying to remove vmware-player, but I'm getting errors... can anyone help? Here's what happens: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18697/

[12:55] <Flannel> intelikey: the question becomes, what packages do you still have?  (the ones that ought not to be there should be obvious)
[12:55] <eternaljoy> Firefox on Feisty keeps freezing!  any ideas?
[12:55] <agresor> soundray, agresor@agresor:~$ sudo modprobe fglrx
[12:55] <agresor> FATAL: Error running install command for fglrx
[12:55] <intelikey> Flannel what ever the essentials and ubuntu-base requires

[12:56] <Matt11007> 'evenin' fellas
[12:56] <cables> eternaljoy, disable extensions and enable them to see if any of them are causing the problem
[12:56] <intelikey> Flannel 480M not bloated ?
[12:56] <Jordan_U> cables, Known bug ( don't know why it hasn't been fixed yet ) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vmware-player/+bug/57957

[12:56] <intelikey> like 300M at least too much
[12:56] <oriez> how do i make the firefox to show only "Mozilla Firefox" on bar and not all the page title
[12:56] <soundray> agresor: okay, something's wrong then. Do you have an ATI card?
[12:56] <ssam> intelikey, and apt-get clean
[12:56] <oriez> i mean on the bottom panel
[12:57] <edmondt> <eternaljoy try renaming your .mozilla in your home directory and try running firefox again
[12:57] <eternaljoy> cables: extensions?
[12:57] <intelikey> ssam the cache is on another drive.
[12:57] <vbabiy> i have seen a few but now sure what they are called it would be nice to have  a gnome dock that looks like the mac os X
[12:57] <agresor> soundray,  Yes i use ATI radeon 9200
[12:57] <vbabiy> or works
[12:57] <Flannel> intelikey: well, what's taking up most of it?
[12:57] <agresor> I cant play games with OpenGL
[12:57] <cables> eternaljoy, ff addons
[12:57] <vertigo_1> has anyone gotten cacti working on 6.06 out of universe?
[12:57] <ssam> intelikey, ubuntu is not especially designed to have a small install size
[12:57] <intelikey> Flannel hmm i'll look.
[12:57] <Matt11007> has any1 worked with vtiger?
[12:57] <Jordan_U> vbabiy, try kiba-dock
[12:57] <intelikey> ssam i know but 500m is rediculess
[12:57] <eternaljoy> cables: ill try that ty
[12:58] <vbabiy> Jordan_U: that will work in gnome
[12:58] <Jordan_U> vbabiy, Yes
[12:58] <intelikey> like 10X what is "needed"
[12:58] <vbabiy> and is that on the repos
[12:58] <ssam> intelikey, did you try apt-get autoremove
[12:58] <intelikey> tty24 [root@~]  apt-get autoremove
[12:58] <intelikey> E: Invalid operation autoremove
[12:58] <zerqent> intelikey: small ubuntu ~ debian? :P
[12:58] <Flannel> intelikey: you'd need to install autoremove first ;)  it's not worth it.
[12:58] <Jordan_U> intelikey, Are you using Dapper?
[12:58] <Cereal_> how do I untar a directy w/o its previously set directories.  Say I have a tar w/ files inside /usr/user but want to extract all files to /tmp  -- I can't seem to do it right -C option doesn't work for some reason.
[12:58] <ziggy23> I have a Hewlett-Packard cp1160 printer.  How do I find the best driver in Ubuntu, since that model is not listed?
[12:59] <intelikey> Jordan_U yes it's dapper
[12:59] <adc> win 2
[12:59] <georgy> ziggy23, : watch linuxprinting.org
[12:59] <Jordan_U> intelikey, autoremove is not installed by default in Dapper ( Edgy + )
[12:59] <soundray> agresor: those devices aren't supported by fglrx any more. Use the xorg driver (try both Driver "ati" and Driver "radeon", one of them should work with some level of acceleration).
[12:59] <ssam> intelikey, oh, the auto remove is new
[12:59] <phreaky_> BlueEagle: did u get my conf?
[12:59] <dac_> what is the address for ubuntu 7.04?
[12:59] <intelikey> zerqent Jordan_U and ssam i'll repost my origenal Q
[12:59] <intelikey> ok i have the live CD for dapper, so i installed that.  then ran  >>> for Q in `dpkg -l | cut -d' ' -f3` ;do apt-get remove --purge -y $Q ;done ;apt-get install ubuntu-base <<<    so i should only have the same as the server install,   correct ?
[12:59] <Pelo> ziggy23,   printers come in families, try a similar number

[01:01] <intelikey> ssam shipit sends liveCD's not alternate CD's
[01:01] <Flannel> intelikey: the wiki says "server" install off of alt CD is 300MB, so you're not far off.
[01:01] <edmondt> Dell is going to include ubuntu to their desktop eh? :)

[01:01] <Twinkle_RIP> hey i installed Azureus, opened a torrent file with azureus. i unistalled azureus, now, when i double click a torrent file ubuntu tries to open it with azureus. as azureus isn't installed nothin happens. before i installed azureusit opened with BitTorrent when i double clicked it. do it now??
[01:01] <soundray> agresor: those devices aren't supported by fglrx any more. Use the xorg driver (try both Driver "ati" and Driver "radeon", one of them should work with some level of acceleration).
[01:01] <agresor> soundray,  tell me can i use OpenGL with my 9200 or need to change Graphic Card ?
[01:02] <rogue780|laptop> is there a way to find out what pci slot a specific device is in? (I have 5 tv tuner cards and one is malfunctioning...I know it's /dev/video3 but I don't know which physical card it is)
[01:02] <intelikey> Flannel ok then i'm about 180 bloated    thanks that's what i was asking.
[01:02] <soundray> agresor: I don't know. You have to try it out with the ati or radeon driver.
[01:02] <Pelo> Twinkle_RIP,   select torrent  right click , properties,  openwith , change prog
[01:02] <phreaky_> BlueEagle, did the conf make any sense to u? =)
[01:02] <agresor> brb
[01:02] <ssam> intelikey, there are a few places that will be able to sell you an alternate cd
[01:02] <Twinkle_RIP> ok
[01:02] <Twinkle_RIP> thank
[01:02] <Jordan_U> intelikey, I think that should work but it might be easier to find someone with a base install of Dapper server and have them dpkg --get-selections
[01:02] <ub12> rogue780|laptop, try lspci
[01:02] <dj_baggio> I want to use numbers 10^10 and more in bash...what I should do? :)

[01:02] <dj_baggio> smb know? :)
[01:03] <Pelo> rogue780|laptop,  check out the device manager in  menu > system > prefs >    might be called something else
[01:03] <intelikey> Jordan_U k thansk.
[01:03] <Flannel> intelikey: well, first check for packages that are, for some reason, still there.  dpkg -l and crossreference with the dependencies of ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-standard
[01:03] <soundray> dimas__: are you on feisty?
[01:03] <dimas__> yes

[01:05] <bruenig> Twinkle_RIP, utorrent
[01:05] <bruenig> !best | Twinkle_RIP
[01:06] <ubotu> Twinkle_RIP: 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.

[01:06] <openforlife> phreaky_,
[01:06] <kkerwin> Hi, I'm having problems getting my fglrx card to work. Here is a link to my Xorg.0.log: http://rafb.net/p/0vtArJ18.html and then one to my xorg.conf file: http://rafb.net/p/VrkQ3i33.html
[01:06] <openforlife> phreaky_, yse
[01:06] <dimas__> soundray i did use synaptic
[01:06] <soundray> dimas__: is your webcam listed on http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/PWC/WorkingWebcamsWithPWC ?
[01:06] <openforlife> phreaky_, will find the guide i used myself. 5 secs
[01:06] <dj_baggio> Jordan_U: I want to use in bash numbers 10^10 and more...and I don't know what I should do
[01:06] <Twinkle_RIP> utorrent is available for ubuntu??
[01:06] <bruenig> Twinkle_RIP, get wine and run it through that
[01:06] <cables> Twinkle_RIP, no, but it works in Wine
[01:06] <Widespread> Hey which is better ssh or openssh?
[01:06] <voraistos> i did! dell told me windows was worth 10  pounds, and works 10 pounds as well, so i said fuck that, the pleasure of actually burning the thing down is higher than having 20 quids on my bank account! so yes, i did. it feels reaaly damn good.
[01:07] <soundray> agresor: is this with ati or radeon?
[01:07] <intelikey> i think i found some of it.  removing the restricted modules didn't clean out /lib like it should have.    375M  /lib    ...  257M    /lib/udev  < bings
[01:07] <bruenig> voraistos, you are lying
[01:07] <voraistos> nope
[01:07] <Twinkle_RIP> is wine free??
[01:07] <voraistos> yep
[01:07] <Beastage> Odd thing guys, watching same videos that appear to be pixelated in ubuntu but crystal clear in windows, also seems to happen with GStreamer codecs and VLC
[01:07] <dimas__> thats the thing i am not sure...mine is "Creative Live Vista IM" model vf0260
[01:07] <bruenig> voraistos, no one is that retarded, especially not someone enlightened enough to use linux
[01:07] <cables> Twinkle_RIP, yep
[01:08] <dimas__> soundray thats the thing i am not sure...mine is "Creative Live Vista IM" model vf02
[01:08] <openforlife> phreaky_, http://www.zulustips.com/2007/04/01/dual-monitors-howto.html
[01:08] <voraistos> bruenig: ive been using linux for 5 years now, thank you :)
[01:08] <Twinkle_RIP> cool
[01:08] <phreaky_> openforlife, thanks.. checking that out
[01:08] <edmondt> <Twinkle_RIP deluge and transmission are both pretty good... you can find them in getdeb.net
[01:08] <Jordan_U> dj_baggio, You can do: "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`" to get the header files for your kernel, but I don't understand your last comment
[01:08] <Twinkle_RIP> thanx guyz
[01:08] <bruenig> voraistos, my fault for some reason I still associate linux with smart people
[01:08] <agresor> soundray,  it is "radeon"  here is log : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18701/
[01:09] <soundray> dj_baggio: for advanced bash stuff, /join #bash and read the topic -- some very good links there.
[01:09] <agresor> Can u check ?
[01:09] <kayef> how do i launch a window showing home folder in command line?
[01:09] <dj_baggio> Jordan_U: I writing programm in bash, and I need numbers higher than 10^10
[01:09] <soundray> agresor: okay, you haven't got dri with radeon. Try ati instead.
[01:09] <DShepherd> kayef: nautilus.. if your using ubuntu
[01:09] <Beastage> Odd thing guys, watching same videos that appear to be pixelated in ubuntu but crystal clear in windows, also seems to happen with GStreamer codecs and VLC
[01:09] <dimas__> soundray model 0260 i did look for it but i am not sure cause the exact name is not listed
[01:09] <voraistos> bruenig: and honestly 10 pounds for windows vista basic, i thought damn burning the sticker is more interesting. and it was. we had good weather today, so we made a barbecue. the windows license sticker didnt make the food taste bad, strangely.
[01:09] <Jordan_U> dj_baggio, Look into the program "bc"
[01:09] <Eleaf> Hi, I just turned on my computer and pulseaudio no longer works, it says Error opening PCM device hw:0: Device or resource busy
[01:09] <agresor> soundray,  ati was my old driver... no success with it... :(
[01:09] <soundray> dimas__: don't waste your time with the pwc driver if your camera isn't listed on that page
[01:10] <Eleaf> it's been working in the past, just this restart it no longer works.
[01:10] <voraistos> bruenig: you dont understand that i hate microsoft and i hate apple even more, so its a pleasure to burn down the stuff they dump on my computer.
[01:10] <kayef> DShepherd: thanks....how bout opening a window with a specific location?
[01:10] <agresor> soundray,  on all 3 drivers i get "display: :0  screen: 0
[01:10] <agresor> "
[01:10] <Beastage> voraistos:  with all due respect... its sad hating a company
[01:10] <Mba7eth> hi all
[01:10] <bruenig> voraistos, see now I am unsure, either you are doing a lame comedy bit (isn't british humor generally smart and witty) or you are being serious which again disproves my previous notion as linux users being generally smart
[01:10] <DShepherd> kayef: nautilus /specific/location
[01:10] <DShepherd> !offtopic
[01:10] <Pelo> voraistos,   #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:10] <Eleaf> does anybody use pulseaudio?  Mine randomly stopped working!
[01:10] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:10] <dj_baggio> OK...I go to google :)
[01:10] <kayef> DShepherd: ok....thanks
[01:10] <Beastage> voraistos:  especially companies that provide work with lots of people
[01:10] <soundray> agresor: sorry, no acceleration with your card then. You won't be able to play advanced 3D games
[01:10] <bruenig> voraistos, is it really
[01:11] <DShepherd> kayef: yw
[01:11] <crimsun> Eleaf: I do just fine
[01:11] <soundray> dj_baggio: did you get my hint?
[01:11] <bruenig> voraistos, you see because I generally derive pleasure from things which have some effect
[01:11] <Jordan_U> !offtopic | voraistos bruenig
[01:11] <ubotu> voraistos bruenig: please see above
[01:11] <Eleaf> crimsun, hi again.  I've been using pulseaudio fine, but now I get Error opening PCM device hw:0: Device or resource busy
[01:11] <dj_baggio> soundray: yeap...I asked people there :)
[01:11] <bruenig> !prefix | ubotu
[01:11] <ubotu> ubotu: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[01:11] <crimsun> Eleaf: ...so something has grabbed hw:0 already.
[01:11] <Eleaf> and a bunch of other errors, relating to there being no alsa module, etc.
[01:11] <zerqent> Eleaf: some other audio application running perhaps? ;)
[01:11] <voraistos> bruenig, and all the others, you guys obviously dont come from xiph.org :P those are the violent people :P
[01:11] <agresor> soundray,  what Graphic card do you suggest me  at least 9500 ?
[01:11] <mat__> hi how do i edit the grub bootloader settings?
[01:11] <MSTK> NICK MSTK
[01:11] <Eleaf> zerqent, no, fresh restart
[01:12] <Beastage> I known some violent people... they're in jail
[01:12] <crimsun> Eleaf: what does ``lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/mixer* /dev/snd/*'' tell you?
[01:12] <Eleaf> crimsun, it usually works when I boot up.
[01:12] <Mba7eth> why compiz don't draw borders some times  ?  I have faced this problem alot but didn't really understand, FYI: I'm a newbie
[01:12] <DShepherd> mat__: /boot/grub/menu.lst i think..
[01:12] <Eleaf> shows nothing crimsun
[01:12] <bruenig> Mba7eth, #ubuntu-effects
[01:12] <mat__> thanks
[01:12] <mat__> sudo gedit?
[01:12] <Beastage> Help, videos appear pixelated in ubuntu but not in windows, using ubuntu defualt player with codecs and VLC, same results
[01:12] <dimas__> soundray do you understand what i meant? my cam is a "creative live vista im" but i found in the list the "cretive live desktop" and "creative live webcam"
[01:12] <DShepherd> mat__: if you like gedit.. sure
[01:12] <soundray> agresor: all current consumer graphics cards are more or less crabby with Linux. Your best bet is NVidia.
[01:12] <crimsun> Eleaf: what does ``pulseaudio --check ; echo $?'' return?
[01:12] <voraistos> Beastage: if you knew about microsoft, you would know that windows is being devellopped by students in universities mostly. thats why the source code is so interesting. ( or the comments in the source code)
[01:12] <soundray> dimas__: those aren't your model.
[01:12] <Pelo> Mba7eth,  it might need a theme for decorator
[01:12] <essial> hey, if theres someone who knows a decent amount about ld, can you message me?
[01:12] <dehhzaum> algum brasileiro?
[01:13] <soundray> !br | dehhzaum
[01:13] <ubotu> dehhzaum: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[01:13] <Eleaf> crimsun, "1"
[01:13] <Jordan_U> mat__, One thing to note, the things with one "#" are not commented out per se... you may want to read up on the Debian automagic kernels list
[01:13] <dimas__> soundray i guess the creative live webcam is the same than a creative live vista im
[01:13] <dimas__> soundray dont you think?
[01:13] <crimsun> Eleaf: right, much as I suspected.  Did you use Firefox/Konqueror with a Flash web page?
[01:14] <Eleaf> yes
[01:14] <soundray> dimas__: I've told you what I think.
[01:14] <essial> i'm trying to link two object files, but its not linking properly
[01:14] <crimsun> Eleaf: Flash 9 does not work properly with pulseaudio; you need an additional module.
[01:14] <dimas__> soundray thanks
[01:14] <Eleaf> crimsun, I installed that one flash plugin thing that makes sound work with pulseaudio from the wiki
[01:14] <nosrednaeki1> congrats on getting the DELL deal everybody!
[01:14] <crimsun> Eleaf: what, the deb?
[01:15] <Eleaf> no, one sec
[01:15] <ubuntu_user07> i have a problem with desktop effects. sometime i lose my bottom taskbar. and how do i display the full 3d cube?
[01:15] <mat__> thanks
[01:15] <agresor> soundray,  if i change my graphic card to Nvidia should i have problem to install drivers for it  ? Or have to reinstall OS ?
[01:15] <tholme> Hey, I have a problem, maybe someone could help me? When I check what services are running, 'ls /etc/init.d', it shows services that arent installed anymore, and the ones I have stopped? Why is that so?
[01:15] <Pelo> nosrednaeki1,  it's not like ubuntu or canonical is gonna make money from this,  ubuntu is free to start with
[01:15] <Eleaf> oh crimsun, yes, I installed the libflashsupport deb from http://pulseaudio.revolutionlinux.com/PulseAudio
[01:16] <DShepherd> ubuntu_user07: install gnome-compiz-manager. It kinda eases compiz stuff. For more info ask in #ubuntu-effects
[01:16] <mat__> whats the line in grub for xp to load
[01:16] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_user07, To view the cube first enable it in Desktop Effects then do ctrl+alt+ drag the mouse or use the arrow keys
[01:16] <mat__> i had it in tehre
[01:16] <mat__> but ubunto 7 overwrote it
[01:16] <soundray> agresor: no problem. Switch to the vesa driver before you make the change. After that, follow ubuntu help for installing the nvidia driver
[01:16] <soundray> !nvidia > agresor
[01:16] <nosrednaeki1> Pelo: yeah I know... but still its sorta like Dell relized that Ubuntu was the best
[01:16] <Flannel> mat__: you need to have it at the VERY end.  After the comment about "End debian automagic kernels list"
[01:16] <crimsun> Eleaf: that version is completely broken and doesn't work at all.
[01:16] <Kragnerac> Heh. Microsoft Tax.
[01:16] <Pelo> mat__,  it very much depends on where windows is ,
[01:16] <crimsun> Eleaf: please uninstall that deb.
[01:16] <Jordan_U> mat__, Try just running "sudo update-grub" and see if it fixes itself
[01:16] <ub12> I am having trouble with sed: I type "sed 's/xserv%r/xserver' /var/lib/dpkg/status and then run "dpkg --configure -a" and still get the same error. What am I doing wrong?
[01:16] <Pelo> !grub > mat__  chck your pm window
[01:17] <nuu> tholme: that command won't show you what services you are running, those are the initialization scripts for each and every service on your linux installation
[01:17] <mat__> thanks!
[01:17] <agresor> soundray,  Device  "vesa" ?
[01:17] <Beastage> Help, videos appear pixelated in ubuntu but not in windows, using ubuntu defualt player with codecs and VLC, same results
[01:17] <tholme> ok, where do I check which are running?
[01:17] <soundray> agresor: Driver "vesa"
[01:17] <Jordan_U> ub12, Still get what same error?
[01:17] <agresor> ok thank you
[01:17] <Pelo> Beastage,  try looking up your issue in the forum
[01:18] <crimsun> Eleaf: use the file I've posted at http://adhd.irule.net/~crimsun/libflashsupport_feisty/  (92da4f49308a37af5c427dc8f185be3b47ccf9bf  /usr/lib/libflashsupport.so, sha1sum)
[01:18] <Eleaf> crimsun, okay, what should I do to get sound in flash at all?
[01:18] <Juanca> can anyone help me setting up a connection with Windows XP (in a LAN)
[01:18] <ub12> Jordan_U, yes exact same error. sed is not replacing the % sign
[01:18] <nuu> i dont know of a command that will let you check specifically what *services* are running, but you can take a look at commands like ps, top and htop..especially htop is nice because it supports nice process basename highlighting features, and more
[01:18] <Jordan_U> Beastage, Do they appear lower resolution or are the pixels simply not smoothed out
[01:18] <Eleaf> awesome crimsun, I'll try it.
[01:18] <Jordan_U> ?
[01:18] <Beastage> currently doing search for write support... but wow.... its now on Add/Remove apps....
[01:18] <oskiiiiii> hi
[01:18] <nuu> you can get that by running sudo apt-get install htop
[01:18] <crimsun> Eleaf: download that .so, and copy it to /usr/lib/libflashsupport.so
[01:18] <Beastage> Jordan_U:  pixels not smooth
[01:18] <Eleaf> okay.
[01:18] <mat__> no that hasnt worked. wiondows hanst changed. but now the grub commands are lost
[01:19] <tholme> ok, thnx nuu:)
[01:19] <mat__> it wasthe standard one
[01:19] <nuu> np tholme
[01:19] <crimsun> Eleaf: if you want the command used to compile it, it's:  cc -shared -O2 -Wall -Werror -lgnutls -lpulse flashsupport.c -o libflashsupport.so
[01:19] <Jordan_U> Beastage, That is a preference in VLC
[01:19] <Pelo> mat__,  there is no standard one ,
[01:19] <oskiiiiii> hi
[01:19] <Beastage> Jordan_U:  but it seems to happen in all my linux players
[01:19] <crimsun> Eleaf: (you'll need to install libpulse-dev and libgnutls-dev to compile it)
[01:19] <ub12> hi
[01:19] <oskiiiiii> anybody can help me
[01:19] <oskiiiiii> i updated to feisty fawn
[01:19] <mat__> if you had wiondows installed on a dell laptop and then added ubuntu
[01:19] <Juanca> t n s l q loh  t s o
[01:19] <phreaky_> openforlife, So.. it's the Xinerama that needs to be turned off?
[01:19] <oskiiiiii> and now I cant browse my windows network
[01:19] <ubuntu_user07> how can i stop the two partitions form my master HD from always mounting?
[01:20] <Eleaf> crimsun, do I need to restart to make pulseaudio work (still get errors)
[01:20] <nanana> Hi all. Any idea how to get over "Generating PSK" in WICD???
[01:20] <Jordan_U> ub12, I meant, what is the error that you are still getting, also you may need to escape the % with a \
[01:20] <crimsun> Eleaf: yes, you need to restart pulseaudio
[01:20] <Eleaf> I'm still getting an error when I restart pulseaudio crimsun .
[01:20] <soundray> ub12: to modify a file in place, you have to use 'sed -i'. Also append a g to the expression so it changes each occurrence, not just the first.
[01:20] <crimsun> Eleaf: what's the error?
[01:20] <Jordan_U> Beastage, Then all your linux players are set not to smooth out pixels by default
[01:20] <Eleaf> same one crimsun, Error opening PCM device hw:0:
[01:21] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: you can modify /etc/fstab from root, and add the ",noauto" option to the lines concerning the partitions you don't want to automount at startup
[01:21] <crimsun> Eleaf: do you get that error with ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav''?
[01:21] <Hamm_sand> is there an IRC client in linux similar to mIRC?   I'm using Konversation ATM  .....  i'm teh n00b
[01:21] <Eleaf> crimsun, yes:  PULSEAUDIO: Unable to connect: Connection refused
[01:21] <ub12> soundray, sed -i worked
[01:21] <deadchip> how can i change an installed Feisty system to 64 bit?
[01:21] <ubuntu_user07> where do i put , noauto
[01:21] <deadchip> i haven't found anything apt-related to accomplish that
[01:21] <ub12> thankyou soundray
[01:22] <soundray> deadchip: reinstall
[01:22] <deadchip> erhh
[01:22] <Beastage> Jordan_U:  I think its in the opengl driver
[01:22] <nuu> paste me a sample fstab line and i'll show you where to insert that option
[01:22] <Jordan_U> deadchip, I don't know that you can easily
[01:22] <DShepherd> Hamm_sand: well there's gaim and xchat
[01:22] <deadchip> well i hoped you wouldn't say that
[01:22] <walkintome> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png How do I fix my firefox fonts?
[01:22] <soundray> deadchip: all the binaries are different.
[01:22] <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?
[01:22] <crimsun> Eleaf: do you get that error with ``aplay -Dplughw:0 /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav''?
[01:22] <nuu> the options are the ones that usually start with "default", on most autogenerated fstab entries
[01:22] <deadchip> soundray: i know, i just thought it would be possible via apt similar to a distupgrade
[01:22] <Hamm_sand> DShepherd:  .....xchat?
[01:23] <crimsun> ryanakca: you're looking at the wrong information
[01:23] <Eleaf> crimsun, yes:  device or resource busy
[01:23] <DShepherd> Hamm_sand:yeah.. but I am not sure if either of the apps are like mirc
[01:23] <crimsun> ryanakca: please read http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/index.php?task=support and tell me the URL of the paste generated by the script linked from that page.
[01:23] <Hamm_sand> neato... ty  :D
[01:23] <thunder> hello?  I think I am in the right place now, right client, and starting to get the hang of this...
[01:23] <Flannel> !hi | thunder
[01:23] <ubotu> thunder: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:23] <edmondt> does anyone know how to start apache as root?
[01:23] <nuu> Hamm_sand: you can run mirc with wine ;)
[01:24] <thunder> Hi Flannel
[01:24] <crimsun> Eleaf: please read http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/index.php?task=support and tell me the URL of the paste generated by the script linked from that page.
[01:24] <walkintome> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png How do I fix my firefox fonts?
[01:24] <Flannel> edmondt: eh?  Don't.  Use the normal method (init scripts)
[01:24] <nuu> Pelo: ;)
[01:24] <nuu> the boy wants mirc!
[01:24] <vadvad> hello!!!!! la la la!!
[01:24] <nuu> ;)
[01:24] <cycom> Is it true that I need 1.25 * Ram to successfully suspend my machine?
[01:24] <ubuntu_user07> where do i add ,noauto in fstab?
[01:24] <thunder> Total ubuntu baby here. Linuxed for 9 years and first time on a different distro
[01:24] <Eleaf> ok
[01:24] <crimsun> cycom: do you mean suspend-to-disk?
[01:25] <Eleaf> thunder, welcome
[01:25] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: as i said, paste me a sample fstab line from your fstab, and i'll show you how to modify it
[01:25] <vadvad> hello!!!!! la la la!!
[01:25] <cycom> crimsun: perhaps.
[01:25] <crimsun> cycom: it's a good idea, yes.
[01:25] <soundray> ubuntu_user07: before the "0 0" or "0 2"
[01:25] <crimsun> cycom: obviously suspend-to-ram is moot
[01:25] <cycom> crimsun: suspend to ram doesn't seem to work on my machine.
[01:25] <soundray> vadvad: don't spam please. You have a question, just ask.
[01:25] <DShepherd> ubuntu_user07: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html -- check out that link
[01:25] <cycom> crimsun: Hibernate works just find though.
[01:25] <crimsun> cycom: does the suspend fail due to acpi, or do you mean it suspends but doesn't resume?
[01:25] <thunder> I just need a little help getting a few things sorted, Eleaf and Flannel.  I have 5 linux disks and can only access 2, and there is nothing in /mnt. Where would they be?
[01:26] <Eleaf> crimsun, you wanted the alsa-info script?
[01:26] <Beastage> Jordan_U:  went through all VLC options... nothing to smooth my pixels
[01:26] <crimsun> Eleaf: I want the url generated by running that script.
[01:26] <walkintome> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png How do I fix my firefox fonts?
[01:26] <Pelo> thunder,  if they didn't mound automaticaly you may need to mount them manualy,  you can add them to fstab so they mount eachtime on boot
[01:26] <cycom> crimsun: I'm not sure. It seems to resume, but my keyboard doesn't function, and the screen stays dark. My wireless nic comes up fine (according to the flicker of the indicator)
[01:26] <DShepherd> thunder: sudo fdisk -l and see if you see them
[01:26] <ziggy23> how can I find the usb id for my printer?
[01:26] <ubuntu_user07> nuu i sen tyou the lines for my hd
[01:26] <Roger_The_Bum> is there a specific reason why feisty would be slower than edgy
[01:26] <cycom> ziggy23: lsusb, I think
[01:27] <nuu> where ?
[01:27] <soundray> thunder: check with 'sudo fdisk -l' if the partitions are listed. If they are, you can mount them manually, or automatically via fstab.
[01:27] <nuu> i see no query
[01:27] <crimsun> cycom: please be more precise.  Does the machine appear to suspend-to-ram successfully?  Does it fail to resume from suspend-to-ram?

[01:27] <nuu> ah.
[01:27] <thunder> right. hold on... I will  look - do you have riules here about pasting? Use a bin?
[01:27] <DShepherd> ubuntu_user07: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html -- check out that link
[01:27] <soundray> !pastebin | thunder, ubuntu_user07
[01:27] <ziggy23> is that what you type in terminal, lsusb?

[01:27] <MadDog011> About the nvidia drivers for Feisty last time I tried to install them I couldn't get it to work on my GeForce 4 Card, did that get fixed?
[01:27] <walkintome> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png How do I fix my firefox fonts?
[01:27] <DShepherd> ubuntu_user07: dont paste here please
[01:27] <Jordan_U> thunder, Yes, use pastebin
[01:27] <crimsun> ryanakca: have you downloaded and executed that alsa-info.sh script yet?
[01:28] <DShepherd> MadDog011: i hope so.. have you tried it?
[01:28] <thunder> thanks. back in a sec
[01:28] <cycom> crimsun: It suspends just fine to ram, with my power icon doing the proper throbbing glow.  When it resumes, however, the screen remains blank, and neither my keyboard nor my mouse will function.
[01:28] <MadDog011> DShepherd not really im afraid honestly
[01:28] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: see that "gid=46" ? that has to become "gid=46,noauto"
[01:28] <Hamm_sand> I know this is probably the most noobish question ever......but:   What is the linux equivelant to microsoft's    \program files  ?
[01:28] <cycom> crimsun: My wireless network appears to properly resume though.
[01:28] <MadDog011> DShepherd, important stuff on the server :(
[01:28] <DShepherd> MadDog011: afraid...??? look at your name..
[01:28] <nuu> ie you have to append noauto to that list of options
[01:28] <MadDog011> DShepherd hahaha :)
[01:28] <crimsun> cycom: ok, so suspend-to-ram does in fact work, but resume fails, which is what I suspected you meant.  What make & model?
[01:28] <soundray> MadDog011: NVidia have ceased support for some GeForce cards on Linux. There was a list somewhere...
[01:28] <ubuntu_user07> no spaces between it? and then i can just unmount them?
[01:28] <Jordan_U> cycom, Do you have an ATi card?
[01:28] <cycom> ziggy23: yeah.
[01:28] <cycom> Jordan_U: Yeah
[01:28] <Pelo> Hamm_sand,  doeSN'T work like that,  what do you want to do ?
[01:28] <MadDog011> soundray, and my card is on that list, what now ?
[01:28] <nuu> no, space is ininfluent
[01:28] <Roger_The_Bum> Hamm_sand, /usr/bin I think
[01:29] <walkintome> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png How do I fix my firefox fonts?
[01:29] <nuu> yes you can unmount it. and anyway, that will only affect automounting at boot
[01:29] <Hamm_sand> Pelo:  just curious where stuff installs itself like Opera
[01:29] <nuu> (and with mount -a)
[01:29] <cycom> crimsun: Inspiron E1505. Core 2 Duo. Mobility Radeon X1400. 2GB ram. 160gb HD.
[01:29] <Pelo> Roger_The_Bum,  Hamm_sand  also /bin
[01:29] <explicitlyambigu> hello all
[01:29] <Hamm_sand> ahhhh ty so much
[01:29] <nuu> that is, next time you reboot, that disk there won't get automounted
[01:29] <Hamm_sand>    /ty
[01:29] <Roger_The_Bum> Hamm_sand, but you generally shouldn't need to install programs like you do with windows or OS X
[01:29] <crimsun> cycom: using radeon or fglrx?
[01:29] <cycom> fglrx.
[01:29] <ziggy23> thx
[01:29] <Hamm_sand> brb
[01:29] <crimsun> cycom: resume failure reproducible with vesa?
[01:29] <Eleaf> hey crimsun, I think it's working now, I had to kill pulseaudio again and now it seems error-free.
[01:29] <cycom> ziggy23: did it work?
[01:29] <Pelo> Hamm_sand,  you might find this informative   http://doc.vic.computerbank.org.au/tutorials/linuxdirectorystructure/
[01:29] <Jordan_U> cycom, As a test ( since fglrx is bad when it comes to suspend ) could you try suspend with vesa?
[01:29] <cycom> crimsun: Actually, I haven't tried yet.
[01:29] <tholme> If a local port is "occupied", how can I check what is using it? :P
[01:30] <crimsun> Eleaf: do Flash web sites work (as in are they audible), too?
[01:30] <ubuntu_user07> nuu: does this look right
[01:30] <ubuntu_user07> defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46,noauto 0
[01:30] <Eleaf> crimsun, one sec
[01:30] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: yes
[01:30] <soundray> MadDog011: send a petition to NVidia to open the specs, at least for outdated cards. Or hope for the project that aims to create a free driver, can't remember the name right now.
[01:30] <nuu> tholme: tcp port ?
[01:30] <cycom> Jordan_U: crimsun: let me try. give me about a minute. Fortunately I'm sshed to another box so I won't lose connection.
[01:30] <tholme> yeah
[01:30] <Raptor45> I used build-dep to install the dev packages to build the new pidgin... is there any way to clean those out now that I'm done?
[01:30] <ubuntu_user07> thank you nuu
[01:30] <MadDog011> soundray, what about the older glx drivers there was a option to use them
[01:31] <nuu> np ubuntu_user07
[01:31] <ubuntu_user07> it says i cannot unmount due to arguement with fstab
[01:31] <walkintome> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png How do I fix my firefox fonts?
[01:31] <ubuntu_> Hello
[01:31] <Jordan_U> Raptor45, Do you still have the output from apt where it said what packages it was going to install?
[01:31] <ziggy23> no my usb id is longer than the hplip driver allows
[01:31] <Roger_The_Bum> Hamm_sand, try using synaptic or add&remove programs
[01:31] <soundray> MadDog011: yes, there is a -legacy driver. Try that. -- The name I couldn't remember was nouveau
[01:31] <Pelo> ubuntu_, hello, nice nick :/
[01:31] <Raptor45> Jordan_U yeah, I threw them into a text file
[01:31] <thunder> Eleaf, Flannel - This is the paste of sudo fdisk -l : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18709/
[01:31] <Roger_The_Bum> hello ubuntu_
[01:32] <explicitlyambigu> i was wondering if anyone had time to answer a quick question on fglrx drivers and how to remove them?
[01:32] <Roger_The_Bum> original nick there, where did you get it from :o
[01:32] <ubuntu_> How do I change my nick?
[01:32] <ubuntu_> Lol
[01:32] <Eleaf> cool crimsun, audio is working in flash
[01:32] <nuu> tholme: sudo netstat -nap | grep :<port>
[01:32] <DShepherd> ubuntu_: /nick new_nick
[01:32] <Jordan_U> Raptor45, Just copy the list of packages and do a: sudo apt-get remove whatever
[01:32] <Roger_The_Bum> ubuntu_ type /nick newnick
[01:32] <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?
[01:32] <Pelo> explicitlyambigu,  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg might restore the original drivers
[01:32] <zerqent> explicitlyambigu: aptitude remove xserver-xorg-fglrx? :)
[01:32] <ubuntu_> test
[01:32] <ubuntu_> hmmmmm
[01:32] <walkintome> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png How do I fix my firefox fonts?
[01:32] <Roger_The_Bum> ubuntu_: but replace newnick with the nick that you want
[01:33] <Steve_Steve> there
[01:33] <Eleaf> crimsun, I have noticed that there is a slight lag in flash, is that normal?
[01:33] <Steve_Steve> kk
[01:33] <Raptor45> Jordan_U there is quite a list, any way to make it read the text file and remove them?
[01:33] <explicitlyambigu> thanks i'll givbe that a try and report back :)
[01:33] <ubuntu_user07> i cannot unmount either partition for my master HD witht he noauto set
[01:33] <cmcgee> Hi All, does anybody know a channel that I could go to for help with calibrating my game pad?
[01:33] <tholme> nuu: Thnx alot :) There is a port I opened for Tor, but i kinda want i closed now:P
[01:33] <MadDog011> soundray, so noveau legacy drivers should work ?

[01:34] <Steve_Steve> i have a question, Im currently on the live disk (wish I could install but cant =(   ) anyways is there anyway I can acess my hard drive on live CD but still be able to acess it when I go back to windows?
[01:34] <Jordan_U> Raptor45, Yes, make another text file with just the list of package names and then do: sudo apt-get remove `cat name_of_file_with_list`
[01:34] <Eleaf> crimsun, okay thanks for helping again!
[01:34] <nuu> tholme: if you can't terminate the process gracefully, you can kill it
[01:34] <tholme> ok... how?
[01:34] <thunder> Does the content of that paste look like everythiing is in order ro you, Eleaf & Flannel ?  This is a whole new bucket of fish for me...
[01:34] <soundray> MadDog011: no. nouveau drivers aren't ready yet afaik. Closed binary legacy drivers are in the repos:
[01:34] <tholme> it is the 'sudo /etc/init.d/tor stop' command u use to stop services right?
[01:34] <Eleaf> are all the disks listed there thunder ?
[01:34] <nuu> yes, if there's an initscript, use it

[01:34] <nuu> otherwise you'll have to kill it
[01:35] <nuu> by hand
[01:35] <walkintome> Does anyone know how to fix my firefox fonts? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-Confirmclose.png
[01:35] <Steve_Steve> Does anyone know?
[01:35] <cafuego> Don't exptect nouveau to do anything until next year, is what I heard.
[01:35] <nuu> using kill or killall
[01:35] <thunder> It looks like they are, Eleaf
[01:35] <MadDog011> soundray, legacy is old as hell
[01:35] <eggauah_> whats the primary group for users with administrative rights? admin, adm, lpadmin?
[01:35] <soundray> !repeat | walkintome
[01:35] <ubotu> walkintome: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[01:35] <soundray> MadDog011: they go well with your card, then
[01:35] <thunder> I cannot see much missing, but the disks are named different from my old distro, so its hard to tell which was what, Eleaf
[01:35] <DShepherd> eggauah_: i think its admin
[01:35] <tholme> nuu: by hand? :P
[01:35] <Jordan_U> Steve_Steve, Yes, if it is NTFS then install ntfs-config ( this can be done from the LiveCD, it will keep the application in RAM )
[01:35] <Steve_Steve> hmmmm
[01:35] <MadDog011> soundray, my card is alot newer than that but ok
[01:35] <tholme> nuu: ok... will try
[01:35] <eggauah_> DShepherd:  thanks
[01:36] <Raptor45> Jordan_U thanks, that did it
[01:36] <DShepherd> eggauah_: kool
[01:36] <soundray> MadDog011: sorry, I know I wasn't being funny.
[01:36] <thunder> My old kit only picked up my 250GB external as an S type, it named my internal ones with H
[01:36] <nuu> tholme: yes, stopping a service using an initscript is "graceful"......killing it is "doing things the harsh way" ;)
[01:36] <Steve_Steve> Ok but when I installed that im not sure about how to go about running the program (and if its on ram will I still be able to acess it next time i boot linux or will it be wiped)
[01:36] <ubuntu_user07> nuu: how come i cannot un mount my partitions from hda1?
[01:36] <loco_aullador> someone use the gkrellm?
[01:37] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: try sudo umount instead of simply umount
[01:37] <georgy> loco_aullador, : yes
[01:37] <tholme> nuu: hehe, nice. Im a new linux user, so I dont know that much yet:)
[01:37] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: ie do it from root
[01:37] <ubuntu_user07> and since i have in noauto they will not mount againw hen i reboot?
[01:37] <nuu> tholme: that's fine, we've all been there :)
[01:37] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_user07, Do you have any files open or windows / terminal sessions whose current directory is on that drive?
[01:37] <thunder> AFK
[01:37] <Heartsbane> k anyone got some time to help someone who locked himself out of System > Administration > Services
[01:37] <ubuntu_user07> nothing is accessing that drive i already copied the stuff i needed form it since it mounted automatically
[01:38] <loco_aullador> georgy,  the plugin that shows the processes that shows the users as well...what are those users?
[01:38] <soundray> Heartsbane: how did you lock yourself out?
[01:38] <Pelo> Heartsbane,  how did you do this ?
[01:38] <Jordan_U> Heartsbane, How exactly did you do that :)
[01:38] <georgy> loco_aullador, : user on you machine
[01:38] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: sudo umount <mountpoint>
[01:38] <soundray> As if with one voice :)
[01:38] <ubuntu_user07> nuu: so sudo unmount /hda1
[01:38] <Heartsbane> I turned my back and some newb turned off dbus service
[01:38] <loco_aullador> georgy,  on my machine? but that means people using my machin from outside?
[01:38] <Steve_Steve> So how do I run the program once its installed (ntfs-config)
[01:38] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: /dev/hda1, or /media/hda1, maybe ;)
[01:38] <_`XeOn_> hello any1 knows how to see a list of process running by command line?
[01:39] <zerqent> _`XeOn_: ps axu
[01:39] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: almost certainly not /hda1 ;)
[01:39] <Steve_Steve> Do i open with archive manager or save to disk
[01:39] <bruenig> _`XeOn_, ps -A
[01:39] <Pelo> Steve_Steve, check the menus
[01:39] <tholme> nuu: uhm, sorry to bother u again. But when I wrote: sudo netstat -nap | grep :<port>. . . Nothing happened o_o
[01:39] <_`XeOn_> zerdith<|> huh?
[01:39] <soundray> Heartsbane: turned off? With update-rc.d ?
[01:39] <ubuntu_user07> it says "sudo unmount: command not found
[01:39] <_`XeOn_> oh
[01:39] <_`XeOn_> ok
[01:39] <nuu> tholme: did you put your port in place of "<port>" ?
[01:39] <Pelo> Steve_Steve, you want to install it save to disk
[01:39] <georgy> loco_aullador, : no, if you open a console and you logged in, then a second user use the machine
[01:39] <Heartsbane> soundray: no in the gnome-desktop
[01:39] <tholme> nuu: hehe, yes I did:)
[01:39] <DShepherd> ubuntu_user07: umount not unmount
[01:39] <_`XeOn_> thabk u
[01:39] <nuu> tholme: without the < and > ? :)
[01:39] <_`XeOn_> thank
[01:40] <tholme> nuu: mhm :P
[01:40] <nuu> tholme: hehe
[01:40] <ubuntu_user07> and i just do sudo mount /dev/hda1 if i want it again?
[01:40] <loco_aullador> georgy,  sorry but i dont understand that
[01:40] <Heartsbane> soundray: now I lack access to turn it back on
[01:40] <bjron> I have some wierdness specific to firefox on my box: when trying to connect to http://www.mdsplus.org/ I get a 'connection was reset' error.  but I can go there with the dillo browser, or with any other computer here (which do not run ubuntu)
[01:40] <thunder> Eleaf, I think I have twigged whats wrong.  Could it be that I have to chmod and chown the drives before using them?  They are still listed from my old install.
[01:40] <soundray> Heartsbane: I don't know if restarting it will restore your access. Is rebooting an option?
[01:40] <Steve_Steve> kk I saved now what am i looking for
[01:40] <Steve_Steve> install?
[01:40] <Heartsbane> soundray: it is and that doesn't work
[01:40] <explicitlyambigu> Pelo, zerquent: sudo aptitude remove xorg-driver-fglrx seems to have worked.....i'll reboot and be back ;-) thanks again...it's the little things that stump the beginner!
[01:41] <Beastage> meh still won't let me write on NTFS
[01:41] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: i don't remember your fstab, but if i recall correctly, it classified them by uuid, not device - that means mount /dev/hda1 wont do you no good
[01:41] <soundray> Heartsbane: can you run sudo commands in the terminal?
[01:41] <Heartsbane> yes
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Beastage, Have you tried ntfs-config ?
[01:41] <vbabiy> hey guys is there an unzip util that will unzip over windows share so i don't have to copy it to my desktop
[01:41] <Steve_Steve> hmmmmm
[01:41] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: safest bet is to mount by mountpoint, which will always be recognized. ie sudo mount /media/hda1, or whatever the mountpoint is
[01:41] <thunder> I thought NTFS partitions were RO in linux...
[01:41] <DShepherd> soundray: i think so.. right guys?
[01:41] <oriez> how do i make skype to open automatically
[01:41] <kbrooks> thunder, now its not.
[01:41] <cycom> Jordan_U: crimsun: It appears I was incorrect. If suspend worked before, it no longer does.  It hangs before going completely under.
[01:41] <Eleaf> thunder, hmm that's weird.
[01:41] <georgy> loco_aullador, : ok, every time somebody login in, you will see it. But it's possible that you login in several times. try to open a console, and see what happen
[01:42] <DShepherd> thunder: it can be
[01:42] <vbabiy> oriez: add it to your session
[01:42] <Steve_Steve> Im clicking on everything insdie config-ntfs (install,config) but nothing happens (install brings up a readme)
[01:42] <ubuntu_user07> can i hurt the drive or data but doing sudo mount /dev/hda1?
[01:42] <cycom> Jordan_U: crimsun: with either vesa or fglrx.  Hangs at the same spot.
[01:42] <Jordan_U> thunder, Not any more :)
[01:42] <soundray> Heartsbane: try 'sudo update-rc.d dbus defaults ; sudo invoke-rc.d dbus start'
[01:42] <crimsun> cycom: even from a fresh (cold powerdown) boot?
[01:42] <vbabiy> !session | oriez
[01:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about session - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:42] <Beastage> Jordan_U:  ya
[01:42] <thunder> OOOOh...
[01:42] <cycom> crimsun: indeed.
[01:42] <thunder> :)
[01:42] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: no, you can't
[01:42] <ryanakca> crimsun: back, sorry
[01:42] <Beastage> Jordan_U:  maybe... not? I think I used NTFS Config
[01:42] <tiago> what is the channel of bazarng?
[01:42] <thunder> That could prove useful. I have an old WXP NTFS drive sitting here to repair for someone.
[01:42] <Pelo> Steve_Steve, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[01:43] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: it'll just tell you that it can't find any /dev/hda1 in fstab/mtab
[01:43] <thunder> Thought I couldnt do it cause I couldnt write to the disk
[01:43] <Eleaf> thunder, yeah harddrives not mounting can confuse me too.  Have you tried creating a directory in /mnt and using the mount command to mount a /dev/something drive to the directory in /mnt ?
[01:43] <Jordan_U> Beastage, Did you go to Applications -> System Tools -> NTFS Configuration Tool ?
[01:43] <DShepherd> Steve_Steve: are you on feisty now? if you are.. you can apt-get install ntfs-config
[01:43] <nuu> ubuntu_user07: (that is, if your fstab lists devices by UUID, and not by /dev/xyz)
[01:43] <Beastage> Jordan_U:  ok yes
[01:43] <soundray> DShepherd: I'm not sure what you are referring to.
[01:43] <Raptor45> is it likely that Pidgin will make it into Feisty (or backports at least) once the final version is out?
[01:43] <Beastage> Jordan_U:  I'll try reboot
[01:43] <DShepherd> soundray: yes you can run sudo commands in the terminal.. clearer now :-)
[01:44] <infidel> where can i get the source code for ubuntu?
[01:44] <Jordan_U> Raptor45, If there is enough demand for it then it will probably be in backports
[01:44] <Heartsbane> soundray: it worked thanx
[01:44] <DShepherd> Raptor45: I dont think so. but you can ask in #ubuntu-desktop..
[01:44] <thunder> that might work.  I came to ubuntu from M*n*r*va, Eleaf, and I am used to certain things being in cerrtain places.
[01:44] <Steve_Steve> ummmm im not sure what Im on lemmy check
[01:44] <loco_aullador> georgy,  so those users maybe its me loging in several times? to open a console?
[01:44] <Pelo> infidel,  probably on the ubuntu.com site somewhere
[01:44] <soundray> DShepherd: I was asking someone specifically. I know it works generally.
[01:44] <Raptor45> ty
[01:44] <georgy_> loco_aullador, : yes
[01:44] <DShepherd> soundray: yeah i noticed.. sorry .. carry on
[01:45] <Steve_Steve> cd says 5.10 (install cd says that,should be same as live cd right?)
[01:45] <Jordan_U> infidel, You can use apt-get source

[01:50] <toferrado> How to Install GTK+?
[01:50] <Pelo> toferrado, are you in kubuntu ?
[01:50] <toferrado> Pelo, ubuntu
[01:50] <chili555> eli_reu whats the file extension?
[01:50] <Pelo> toferrado, gtk should be installed but look it up in synaptic
[01:51] <Hamm_sand> hooray for wine and mIRC scripts
[01:51] <Pelo> esss
[01:51] <Pelo> ewww
[01:51] <eli_reu> chili555: .binm

[01:51] <Steve_Steve> using a 5.10 live cd can I burn a feisty live disc
[01:52] <eli_reu> i'm running ubuntu 6.10
[01:52] <bruenig> hooray for /exec -o and bash
[01:52] <toferrado> Pelo, I did try to install RutilTv and... "Please install (or upgrade to) GTK+ 2.6.0, at least."
[01:52] <Pelo> Steve_Steve, probably but you might need to mount a hdd to save it to
[01:52] <Jordan_U> I get this error when I try to install vmware-server http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18716/ note that I did not add the "yes" "no" answers and I cannot figure out how to answer these questions myself
[01:52] <chili555> eli_reu you may need to make it executable chmod +x <file>.bin and then try ./<file>.bin
[01:53] <eli_reu> thx
[01:53] <cmcgee> Has anyone here managed to get their xbox controller to work under Linux?
[01:53] <Steve_Steve> How long will it take to burn on windows (fiesty live cd)
[01:53] <Jordan_U> Steve_Steve, If you have a second CD rom drive and enough RAM to fit a CD image then yes
[01:53] <Pelo> toferrado,  hmmm, look up gtk in wikipedia for the link to the gtk webpage and get the package from there,  .deb file if you can, or the source
[01:53] <crimsun> ryanakca: ...right - got a url?
[01:53] <Ultimo> Hoi all.
[01:54] <Jordan_U> Steve_Steve, The majority of the time will likely be from downloading it
[01:54] <phreaky_> openforlife, tried that.. still cannot get it to works so the maximized apps only show on one monitor
[01:54] <Pelo> Steve_Steve, if you have windows install use windows,   I don'T know how long ,  depends on your connection onlong it will take to dl,  and the time to burn depends n your burner,  no more then 20 minutes for that
[01:54] <Sophistication> anyone got #joost working in ubuntu yet?
[01:54] <teenbeat2007> how can i isntall from a zip disk on a laptop without usb boot or dvd
[01:55] <Steve_Steve> one more question can I install the live cd onto a dvd? I have no cd's
[01:55] <Jordan_U> teenbeat2007, Does it have a floppy drive?
[01:55] <Steve_Steve> will it work the same way?
[01:55] <teenbeat2007> yes
[01:55] <Ultimo> Anyone here experienced with wireless networking in Ubuntu, specifically with a USB adapter?
[01:55] <phreaky_> Any1 using twinview? And know how i can maximize a window on only one screen? For example if my other monitor is a TV where i want to watch movies.. when i maximize it, its over both screens =(
[01:55] <Pelo> Steve_Steve,  I thnk you can
[01:55] <ub12> what do I use instead of make when installing from a tarball download? I am used to "./configure" "make" "make install"
[01:55] <teenbeat2007> Jordan_u: yes it has
[01:56] <Jordan_U> Steve_Steve, I believe so, there is also a DVD image with extra stuff on it if you prefer ( takes much longer to download though )
[01:56] <bruenig> ub12, you still use make
[01:56] <bruenig> ub12, make sure you have installed build-essential to get what you need
[01:56] <ub12> bruenig, I don't have make ...
[01:56] <Raptor45> ub12, you can use checkinstall to make a .deb file, so its removable
[01:56] <bruenig> ub12, make sure you have installed build-essential to get what you need
[01:56] <Jordan_U> teenbeat2007, You can follow the floppy install instructions then from the wiki:
[01:56] <Jordan_U> !install
[01:56] <Pelo> ub12, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:56] <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
[01:56] <bruenig> or you can make uninstall
[01:56] <bruenig> to remove it
[01:56] <Steve_Steve> kk thanks guys
[01:57] <ub12> Thankyou everybody
[01:57] <Ultimo> bruenig - Where might I find the build-essential for Fiesty in Windows?
[01:57] <teenbeat2007> the ubuntu wiki or ...
[01:57] <Dhjiz> hi
[01:57] <bruenig> Ultimo, archive.ubuntu.com
[01:57] <Ultimo> Thank you.
[01:57] <Beastage> fixed the write issue... had to unmount all drives first and then mount again with ntfs config
[01:57] <Juanca> Hi, can anyone help me configuring a LAN with a windows xp machine?
[01:58] <bruenig> the checkinstall script takes too much effort making you write a description and what not. Someone should write a better quicker script
[01:58] <Dhjiz> hi I've a big problem with ubuntu
[01:58] <Beastage> which reminds me... if I set a static IP (that is supposd to work) I get no communication
[01:58] <Dhjiz> apt-get
[01:58] <Dhjiz> Erreur de segmentation
[01:58] <Dhjiz> it means segmentation fault
[01:58] <maximi89> hi, who can help me with SAMBA?
[01:58] <bruenig> Dhjiz, ohhhh :P
[01:58] <Raptor45> bruenig, you don't really have to write a true description you could just put the name and move on
[01:59] <Dhjiz> I can't use apt-get, apt-cache or aptitude anymore
[01:59] <phixnay> maximi89 if it's really easy I could try to help
[01:59] <Dhjiz> but dpkg works
[01:59] <maximi89> ok
[01:59] <shane_> bought a toshiba laptop with 945 chipset.  Supposed to be running at 1280X800 resolution, but can't make it work with 915 resolution.  any suggestions
[01:59] <bruenig> Raptor45, yeah but for that they could write it to simply put the name of the directory you are in, that way it is just a simple "sudo checkinstall" and then you are done with it
[01:59] <d0lph1nK1ng> my ubuntu says the vmwaretools package doesn't exist after i removed it.  whats up?
[01:59] <Raptor45> true
[01:59] <Dhjiz> I really don't know what to do
[01:59] <maximi89> phixnay, i can't connect to other pc in my LAN, is using Ubuntu the other pc and me too
[01:59] <Dhjiz> I found things on google
[02:00] <Jordan_U> Dhjiz, Maybe try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt
[02:00] <bruenig> I should write something like that, too bad I am terribly lazy and not on ubuntu anymore
[02:00] <Dhjiz> but it's for people who can get the load of the sources.list and a seg fault after
[02:00] <Dhjiz> ok
[02:00] <Dhjiz> same thing
[02:00] <Raptor45> random question: is there any way to get a list of packages which have been installed since the default setup?
[02:00] <maximi89> phixnay, i use findsmb, but i can't see the other pc, only the my, this happen with both
[02:01] <LjL> Raptor45: no, but the default setup only installs "ubuntu-desktop" and the kernel, very little else
[02:01] <Vulcan40> How do you tell ubuntu what your monitor can handle
[02:01] <Jordan_U> Raptor45, With some script-foo yes
[02:01] <bruenig> raphael, script I wrote: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=393615
[02:01] <bruenig> Raptor45, ^

[02:01] <phreaky_> Any1 using twinview? And know how i can maximize a window on only one screen? For example if my other monitor is a TV where i want to watch movies.. when i maximize it, its over both screens

[02:02] <Vulcan40> Jordan when I type that it says xserver-org not installed
[02:02] <maximi89> but nothin
[02:02] <Raptor45> Jordan_U, how complicated? I'm mostly just curious what I've added
[02:02] <maximi89> phixnay, i use testparm
[02:02] <maximi89> this show an erro with a pass or something lioke that
[02:02] <cycom> hrm.  my suspend seems to hang after SMP alternatives: switching to UP code.
[02:03] <Jordan_U> Raptor45, Not worth it :)
[02:03] <Raptor45> Jordan_U, haha ok
[02:03] <Heartsbane> anyone know how to fix System > Administration > Services is telling me "You are not allowed to access the system configuration"
[02:03] <phixnay> maximi89: it sounds like you're over my head then : ) if you haven't already, try using smbpasswd to add a user and password (the same one as your ubuntu login)
[02:03] <coded62> how would i go about creating a web server through ubuntu 6.1 edgy
[02:03] <bruenig> Raptor45, I wrote a script to do that, I wrote it in edgy, but it should still apply: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=393615

[02:04] <Ultimo> bruenig - Any hints as to whereabouts in that repository to look for the build-essential that I hear I need?
[02:04] <bruenig> Ultimo, main
[02:04] <Vulcan40> `xserver-org' is not installed and no info is available
[02:04] <Jordan_U> jshriver, Either your sources.list is incorrect, one of the third party repos you are using is down, or you are not connected to the internet
[02:04] <bruenig> Ultimo, build essential is just a meta package though
[02:04] <jshriver> it borking on Universe
[02:04] <phixnay> has anybody sucessfully edited /etc/network/interfaces ?

[02:05] <coded62> how would i go about creating a web server through ubuntu 6.1 edgy
[02:05] <Ultimo> Yeh, but the topic I'm reading says I need it.
[02:05] <bruenig> Ultimo, if you aren't installing it from the repositories, you will need to get all of its dependencies yourself
[02:05] <Vulcan40> geez sorry
[02:05] <Jordan_U> phixnay, I have
[02:05] <chili555> phixnay many times
[02:05] <scot524> coded62: how many users?
[02:05] <maximi89> phixnay, yes i do that and now i go to see what happen xD
[02:05] <Ultimo> All right then, how do I go about tracking those down?
[02:05] <phixnay> Jordan_U:  chili555: I commented out the interfaces I don't need, such as eth0, and I restarted, but ifconfig still shows them
[02:05] <jshriver> weird because if I put that URL in firefox it downloads fine
[02:06] <Dhjiz> nobody knows ?
[02:06] <phixnay> maximi89: good luck :)
[02:06] <coded62> just maybe 2-4 at the most so i can acces file from other places
[02:06] <jshriver> is there a way to tell apt to clean and force redownload
[02:06] <eternaljoy> I remvoed all addons and Firefox on feisty freezes a lot!  never happened in Edgy!  anyone have any ideas for a solution?
[02:06] <Raptor45> bruenig, thanks that's handy... seems to have worked
[02:06] <Jordan_U> phixnay, ifconfig does not use /etc/network/interfaces

 is there a way to tell apt to clean and force redownload
 I remvoed all addons and Firefox on feisty freezes a lot!  never happened in Edgy!  anyone have any ideas for a solution?
[02:07] <jshriver> ?
[02:07] <jshriver> wtf
[02:07] <eternaljoy> jshriver: ??
[02:07] <scot524> coded62: apache2 is in the repos and it's in the repos. There is also lighttpd (lighter weight and I have not installed it)
[02:07] <chili555> phixnay did u restart networking?
[02:07] <phixnay> Jordan_U: ah ok, so if I want certain interfaces disabled by default, what do I do?
[02:07] <maximi89> phixnay, other thing,  i can't see the other pc, this is because i don't have the password?
[02:07] <eternaljoy> Pinnen: behave :)
[02:07] <coded62> scot524 ok thanks lemme try that
[02:07] <jshriver> apt says it cant download a file, but if I put that URL in firefox it downloads fine

[02:07] <piNNoy> how do i unzip or run this file on ubuntu ?? ndiswrapper-1.43.tar.gz      (im in terminal)
[02:07] <bruenig> Ultimo, ndiswrapper is not my field of expertise
[02:07] <phixnay> Jordan_U: yes
[02:08] <Ultimo> My bad then, sorry to bother.
[02:08] <phixnay> maximi89: I'm not sure, I'm not very experienced with samba, but first see if you can ping the other computer
[02:08] <piNNoy> Ultimo: how do u run ndiswrapper?
[02:08] <orasis> Samba, meh, use an FTP server ;)
[02:08] <d0lph1nK1ng> my ubuntu says the vmwaretools package doesn't exist after i removed it.  whats up?
[02:08] <Jordan_U> piNNoy, You don't need to do that to install NDIS wrapper and if you have a broadcom card you don't need NDIS wrapper at all
[02:08] <rummik> piNNoy: you should install the ubuntu package
[02:08] <Ultimo> piNNoy - Somewhat. I had a friend who was trying to teach me, then jumped ship.
[02:08] <maximi89> phixnay, that is the problem
[02:09] <maximi89> the other pc can't ping the my
[02:09] <maximi89> and i can't ping them
[02:09] <bruenig> Ultimo, build essential I can tell you is just a meta package. Installing it only is effective if you have an internet connection because what it does is install a bunch of things that allow you to compile stuff. If you don't have a connection, it doesn't install anything
[02:09] <Jordan_U> phixnay, Are you using network-manager
[02:09] <Jordan_U> ?
[02:09] <hsimah> hi, is anyone free to help me with getting wifi/WPA working on ubuntu
[02:09] <phixnay> Jordan_U yes

[02:09] <jrib> Dremth: which one?
[02:09] <Dremth> jrib, the one that you see right after logging in
[02:09] <phixnay> maximi89: I mean do "ping <ip address of the computer you want to connect to>"
[02:09] <Jordan_U> phixnay, Disable "roaming mode" in network-admin
[02:09] <Ultimo> piNNoy - I got as far as step 4 in that tutorial, which doesn't seem to work for anyone. And no, I don't have the build-essential thingy.
[02:09] <jrib> !splash > Dremth (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:10] <phixnay> maximi89: if that doesn't work, then you have a larger problem

[02:12] <Raptor45> rummik, I don't know if this is the best way to do this, but you could blacklist it
[02:12] <georgy_> rummik, : you can blacklist in /etc/modprobe/blacklist
[02:12] <scot524> coded: just do apache2, it will bring in everything you need
[02:12] <chili555> rummik blacklist, but r u sure u dont want to blacklist prism2 instead?
[02:12] <Jordan_U> phixnay, There is probably a more "oficial" way, but you could just give it a bogus static configuration

[02:13] <maximi89> phixnay, if i can resolv this you can help me, but in msn or jabber?
[02:13] <piNNoy> jordon: my network wifi card isent working it works under windows but not ubuntu thats why i am trying dnswrapper.
[02:13] <Vulcan40> when in xorg I put the correct video card but what about the pci bus? or should I just hit enter and exit
[02:13] <scot524> coded -- i'll be around, just install the package and try to browse http://localhost
[02:13] <rummik> chili555: i'm sure i don't want to blacklist prism2, i'd like to try the prism2 module
[02:13] <LaNCeloT_RW> Jordan_U;  Thanks man! I'll see that
[02:13] <piNNoy> what would be better dnswrapper or firmware?
[02:13] <Jordan_U> piNNoy, DO you know if it is a broadcom chipset?
[02:13] <coded62> scot524 its installing now
[02:13] <erb_> jrib: as in...   mkdir "/home/user/newdir" echo
[02:13] <piNNoy> jord: sec ill find out
[02:13] <jrib> erb_: no, in a new line at the end
[02:13] <hackle577> hey all, im having trouble mounting my ipod (ie, Edgy doesnt even recognize that it's there) is anyone knowledgable on this?
[02:14] <phixnay> maximi89: you'll probably have better luck asking someone else in this channel, I am only a linux user
[02:14] <phixnay> maximi89: sorry I'm not much help
[02:14] <chili555> rummik my Prism II cards hate prism2 and love orinoco
[02:14] <vecina> Anyone know why I keep having to reinstall dbus, pal and hal? Why are they getting borked?
[02:14] <scot524> coded ... it's a great web server, probably an overkill but what the heck :-)
[02:14] <maximi89> okas
[02:14] <maximi89> thanks any way
[02:15] <rummik> chili555: what about for making an accesspoint?
[02:15] <phixnay> maximi89: sure thing
[02:15] <piNNoy> jordon: its a 11a/b/g Wireless LAN mini PCI Express adapter that dosent work on ubuntu also my Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet does not work eather on ubuntu. (wired)
[02:15] <coded62> ok i just need it to be like a file server and a bit of info for my friends and i
[02:15] <hsimah> can anyone help me with wifi, in particular WPA
[02:15] <rummik> chili555: i haven't been able to put it into master mode
[02:15] <phixnay> hsimah: what's the problem?
[02:15] <nixnoo2> how do u encode video in fiesty?
[02:15] <bruenig> nixnoo2, transcode, ffmpeg, mencoder
[02:15] <Grape_Juice> Darnit, I want to join a group.  I'm tired of waiting to be voiced in #freenode-social. :<
[02:15] <salsero> hi i have problem with true image
[02:15] <hurt> (CPU 1) Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.00GHz (CPU 1) @ 2998MHz (200MHz FSB), 44% load (CPU 2) Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.00GHz (CPU 1) @ 2998MHz (200MHz FSB), 24% load
[02:15] <salsero> who can help me
[02:15] <hsimah> well, when i ran WEP, it was fine. but i wanted to use WPA, so i changed the settings in my router
[02:16] <coded62> scot524  i had installed it using synaptic but now i cant find it under the menu/internet   where is it?
[02:16] <salsero> do someone have 10 min for me
[02:16] <Jordan_U> piNNoy, what does lspci ( or device manager ) say the chipset is?
[02:16] <lontra> how can i tell X that i have 1240x800 resolution and not 1024x768 ...
[02:16] <chili555> rummik usually orinoco and hostap will both load; hostap should allow creation of AP
[02:16] <lontra> ?
[02:16] <nixnoo2> bruenig any are gui's?
[02:16] <rummik> chili555: ok, i don't think hostap loaded
[02:16] <hsimah> ive been through the WifiDocs on the ubuntu help site, and everything they say to install is installed on my feisty fawn system
[02:16] <Jordan_U> lontra, Do you hae the correct driver for your card?
[02:16] <rummik> chili555: i'll try that before blacklisting then
[02:16] <bruenig> nixnoo2, maybe, depends on what you are doing. encoding for dvd's has gui's for instance.
[02:16] <sanityx> kevix, What's up man?
[02:16] <michael117> How can I implement different sound volumes per application?
[02:16] <chili555> rummik lsmod | grep hostap
[02:16] <phixnay> hsimah: do you use network manager to connect? because that automatically connects to WPA usually
[02:16] <salsero> how can deinstall truecrypt
[02:16] <hsimah> but i dont see the nm-applet, though it says its running
[02:17] <lontra> Jordan_U: it's an intel945 chipset and it's use the i810 driver
[02:17] <phixnay> hsimah: ah, that's the problem
[02:17] <rummik> chili555: yeah, no hostap
[02:17] <hackle577> salsero: you have to compile from source for feisty i think
[02:17] <Jordan_U> lontra, sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[02:17] <nixnoo2> bruenig no I want to go from avi toavi but lower quality, i need the picture size to be 320x240
[02:17] <sanityx> phixnay, it only does that in roaming mode. In manual it does WEP only, unless you manually configure it with wpa_supplicant
[02:17] <vecina> I turned kernel framebuffer off, but it still seems to activate when i shut down sometimes. Framebuffer makes my monitor lose signal and the computer stops responding to me
[02:17] <Turgon> Hello. I use Ubuntu Feisty, and I would like to install ATI's driver for my old Radeon 9200. What I have already tried is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18726/ Is there any way to make this driver work? (I only want to install it so I don't have to reboot into Windows when I want to play a certain game, so if it is not possible it is not a bid deal).
[02:17] <hackle577> salsero: ooooo uninstall
[02:17] <phixnay> hsimah: just a sec, I saw something about that on the nm mailing list
[02:17] <hsimah> ok, thanks
[02:17] <phreaky_> Any1 using twinview? And know how i can maximize a window on only one screen? For example if my other monitor is a TV where i want to watch movies.. when i maximize it, its over both screens
[02:17] <bruenig> nixnoo2, yeah pick one of the three above
[02:17] <georgy_> nixnoo2, : you can use avidemux
[02:17] <lontra> Jordan_U: then what?
[02:17] <chili555> i would try blacklisting prism2_xx modprobe hostap
[02:17] <jshriver> anyone here still use 6.10? can you run apt-get update and see if you get errors..
[02:17] <piNNoy> jordan: ThinkPad 11a/b/g/ Wireless LAN Mini
[02:18] <hackle577> salsero: hmmm have you tried using synaptic?
[02:18] <jshriver> looks like universe is down
[02:18] <lontra> Jordan_U: restart X?
[02:18] <phixnay> sanityx: I thought it would automatically ask you for the WPA passkey?
[02:18] <jshriver> or not being gzip or something
[02:18] <Jordan_U> lontra, restart X
[02:18] <lontra> Jordan_U: cool thanks!
[02:18] <sanityx> phixnay, Yes, in roaming mode.
[02:18] <coded62>  scot524 i had installed it using synaptic but now i cant find it under the menu/internet   where is it?
[02:18] <sanityx> phixnay, Try manually configuring a WiFi network.
[02:18] <Jordan_U> !wireless | piNNoy
[02:18] <ubotu> piNNoy: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:19] <salsero> hackle i deinstallit first
[02:19] <Raptor45> are there any decent DVD player for linux? I've been using ogle for its menu support, but overall it kinda sucks and totem doesn't seem to play nice with DVDs last I checked
[02:19] <piNNoy> went there it didnt help
[02:19] <sanityx> Raptor45, VLC works great.
[02:19] <h1st0> Raptor45: totem or vlc
[02:19] <lontra> Jordan_U: wow does that make a difference!
[02:19] <lontra> Jordan_U: thanks
[02:19] <phixnay> sanityx: I use WPA, and that's all I had to do. If the nm-applet doesn't appear in the taskbar, getting it back working is probably the easiest way to connect
[02:19] <coded62>  scot524 i had installed it using synaptic but now i cant find it under the menu/internet   where is it?
[02:19] <Raptor45> sanityx h1st0, never liked VLC much in windows... guess I'll give it another shot
[02:20] <sanityx> phixnay, Yes, it works 100% perfectly, as long as you're in ROAMING MODE.
[02:20] <sanityx> Raptor45, Its the same in linux, so if you don't like it in windows you won't like it in linux.
[02:20] <h1st0> Raptor45: yeah that or check out the newew versions of totem.
[02:20] <phixnay> sanityx: is there another mode?
[02:20] <sanityx> phixnay, yes. manual mode.
[02:20] <Raptor45> is there anything comparable to media player classic? I love that in windows... totem seems the closest from what I've tried
[02:20] <kenv> I am trying to download a video from a bicycle ride but it only plays the video.    How can I get the OS to download it so I could save it without it playing it each time?
[02:20] <sanityx> phixnay, You only need to use manual mode if you want to specify IP/gateway/etc
[02:20] <hackle577> Raptor45: gxine
[02:21] <sanityx> phixnay, Or if the SSID is hidden.
[02:21] <Jordan_U> h1st0, Does the newest version of gstreamer support DVD's or do you mean totem-xine ?
 i have an other problem by installing: the file /etc/vmware/vmnet8/dhcpd/dhcpd.conf that this program was aobut to install alrad exist. overite?
[02:21] <ruffleS> Raptor45, mplayer is a nice video player
[02:21] <sanityx> Mplayer is *ok*
[02:21] <phixnay> sanityx: oh, the manual config tool at System>Admin>networking
[02:21] <L30_> como arrumar o plugin flash para 64 bits
[02:21] <L30_> alguem sabe
[02:21] <L30_> ???
[02:21] <phixnay> sanityx: got it now, thanks
[02:21] <SeveredCross> Does OpenOffice remind anyone of the old ClarisWorks for Macs?
[02:21] <coded62> i installed apache2 through synaptic but it isnt in the menu>internet
[02:21] <SeveredCross> And VLC >> Mplayer.
[02:21] <sanityx> phixnay, thats one way to get to it, you can also get there via the applet
[02:21] <SeveredCross> coded62: That's because it's a server.
[02:21] <SeveredCross> it's started by default.
[02:21] <Raptor45> ruffleS mplayer seems good from the movie playing side, but lacking in the GUI department, to me
[02:21] <coded62> ohok
[02:21] <SeveredCross> The files you want to serve should go into /var/www
[02:21] <smoenux> Is there any Multimedia specific channels ?
[02:21] <sanityx> phixnay, But either way, the network manager in ubuntu is the best ive ever seen in linux :-D
[02:22] <kenv>  I am trying to download a video from a bicycle ride but it only plays the video.    How can I get the OS to download it so I could save it without it playing it each time?
[02:22] <Jordan_U> L30_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[02:22] <phixnay> hsimah: one thing to try is System>Admin>networking, and make sure roaming mode is enabled. I'm still reading the mailing lists...
[02:22] <ruffleS> Raptor45, i use vlc much often
[02:22] <chili555> kenv did u try right-clik save as?
[02:22] <sanityx> Since we're talking about multimedia I'd just like to take this opportunity to remind everybody about not using !Automatix
[02:22] <ruffleS> Raptor45, but still i do like mplayer
[02:22] <phreaky_> Is there any1 that know how i can maximize a window (using twinview with 1 lcd monitor and 1 lcd tv) so it only gets maximized on ONE of the screens?
[02:22] <sanityx> !Automatix
[02:22] <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
[02:22] <hsimah> yeah, thats enabled
[02:22] <karimfayez_> my power went off and now my nick name is still connected and i cant connect
[02:22] <Xenguy> nick58b: without the asterisks, should
[02:22] <SeveredCross> karimfayez_: Wait for it to ping out.
[02:22] <karimfayez_> how can i get it back???
[02:22] <Xenguy> ww
[02:22] <karimfayez_> how ling
[02:22] <arejay> http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/en/document?c=us&l=en&s=gen&docid=2F0A15EB21C7E5DDE040A68F5B285AAE&cs=
[02:22] <karimfayez_> long??
[02:22] <arejay> hrm.
[02:23] <ryanakca> karimfayez_: did you register your nick with nickserv?
[02:23] <LjL> karimfayez_: /msg nickserv ghost nickname password
[02:23] <kenv> Yes but it does not give me that option.  I just installed this os today and would like to save my bike ride.
[02:23] <ryanakca> karimfayez_: if so, ghost it
[02:23] <Raptor45> on a related note, is there ANY linux player which supports fancy subtitles? (ASS or SSA I believe?)
[02:23] <smoenux> my Videos are stuttering, does anyone know how to fix it? (Feisty - Have all GStreamer stuff installed)
[02:23] <chili555> kenv option to copy link location?
[02:24] <vecina> :/ I hate reinstallling pal dbus and hal all the time. Why on earth do they get borked?
[02:24] <hackle577> im having trouble mounting my ipod (ie, Edgy doesnt even recognize that it's there) is anyone knowledgable on this?
[02:25] <rummik> chili555: how would i go about setting up an access point?
[02:25] <kkerwin> Hi, I'm having a few problems with my ATI card. Here is a pastebin of what I hope is everything that you'll need (note especially lines 816-17): http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18727/
[02:25] <sanityx> hackle577, I'm not very knowledgeable, but have you tried doing watch /var/log/message
[02:25] <sanityx> as you connect it
[02:25] <Dozzy> huhu my install finally runs above the 52%!
[02:25] <sanityx> or just type dmesg
[02:25] <hackle577> sanityx: let me try that now
[02:25] <sanityx> Dozzy, Hooray!
[02:25] <karimfayez> how can i set myself as an operator of a channel
[02:25] <karimfayez> ??
[02:25] <coded62> how do i add content to the apache server and how would others o;utside network connect ot it
[02:26] <phixnay> hsimah: it's supposed to 'just work' in feisty, but the mailing list suggested two things: 1. check your system for messagebus if you haven't already, and 2. try manually running nm-applet
[02:26] <sanityx> karimfayez, You can't :-P You have to get permission from the freenode people.
[02:26] <chili555> rummik, i ran outa talent, sorry
[02:26] <phixnay> hsimah: that might at least give you some debug info
[02:26] <salsero> i have problems with vmware. after installing i cannot install or deinstall anything. everytime i have to overwirte something. i can not deinstall vmware by synaptic. what can i do?
[02:26] <Dozzy> looks like the install doesnt work on DVD-RW or smth :/
[02:26] <sanityx> salsero, #vmware
[02:26] <karimfayez> its my channel
[02:26] <karimfayez> i have that permission
[02:26] <rummik> chili555: ok, i should probably get going on google anyway ;)
[02:26] <sanityx> karimfayez, ah. idk.
[02:26] <hsimah> whats messagebus?
[02:26] <chili555> rummik, u did get it master mode?
[02:26] <piNNoy> ok i just downloaded the program i needed how do i install it ?? i downloaded wlassistant-0.5.7.tar.gz
[02:26] <coded62>  how do i add content to the apache2 server and how would others o;utside network connect to it
[02:26] <piNNoy> jordan:ok i just downloaded the program i needed how do i install it ?? i downloaded wlassistant-0.5.7.tar.gz
[02:26] <salsero> what do u mean with #vmware? i am a newbee
[02:26] <rummik> chili555: doesn't want to, it just complains
[02:27] <sanityx> salsero, This is #ubuntu, for help with vmware go to #vmware
[02:27] <rummik> chili555: i pulled this card from an ap, so i know it *should* be working for this
[02:27] <sanityx> salsero, /join #vmware
[02:27] <salsero> ok
[02:27] <piNNoy> anyone ok i just downloaded the program i needed how do i install it ?? i downloaded wlassistant-0.5.7.tar.gz
[02:27] <Raptor45> question: is there any media player which supports fancy subtitles?
[02:27] <salsero> #vmware
[02:27] <chili555> rummik, does hostap still have a website with FAQs?
[02:27] <meezyfuh> anyone know good software that can transfer mp3 files from ubuntu to a mobile phone via usb?
[02:27] <sanityx> salsero, no type /join #vmware
[02:27] <coded62>  how do i add content to the apache server and how would others o;utside network connect ot it
[02:27] <phreaky_> Is there any1 that know how i can maximize a window (using twinview with 1 lcd monitor and 1 lcd tv) so it only gets maximized on ONE of the screens?
[02:27] <rummik> chili555: i'm looking
[02:28] <mjp_ttc> hi there!
[02:28] <Flannel> coded62: /var/www is the directory.  And, they just connect to your network.  In theory you have the port forwarded o your machine
[02:28] <hackle577> sanityx: i put "dmesg" in terminal after i connected it, how can i tell what's up?
[02:28] <UltimoHedgehog> Anyone - I'm looking for someone good with Ndiswrapper.
[02:29] <sanityx> hackle577, well you should see something about ipod detected or something
[02:29] <coded62> Flannel ok thanks
[02:29] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: what do you need to do, I've set it up before
[02:29] <sanityx> hackle577, I don't know that much about this.
[02:29] <sanityx> hackle577, try this. unplug the ipod. then type watch dmesg
[02:29] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - Mind if I direct you to a topic that explains it?
[02:29] <sanityx> hackle577, Then plug it in
[02:29] <sanityx> hackle577, Then see what pops up on the terminal after you plug it in
[02:30] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: ok, but sounds serious. I am merely a user but I'll help as much as I can
[02:30] <Raptor45> VLC doesn't seem to handle DVD menus properly
[02:30] <cameron_> 2 questions!  1) I have a nomad zen xtra....is there some software that will upload .mp3s to my .mp3 player?  and also anyone know if ubuntu supports a canon 460a digital camera?
[02:30] <Pelo> Raptor45,  try ogle
[02:30] <aoirthoir> Raptor45, ive not been able to get vlc to handle dvds at all..or any of the other programs that are supposed to work with dvd.
[02:30] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414023&highlight=WPN111 I'm about as new as you can get to this.
[02:31] <phixnay> cameron_: can you just plug it in and drag stuff to it? you might as well try : )
[02:31] <coded62> why cant i create a new folder in the var/www directory
[02:31] <piNNoy> ok i just downloaded the program i needed how do i install it ?? i downloaded wlassistant-0.5.7.tar.gz
[02:31] <Raptor45> Pelo, I was using that... was looking for an alternative, since I dislike ogle and find it buggy
[02:31] <Pelo> cameron_,  doesn' t your mp3 player mount as a usb drive ?
[02:31] <Raptor45> aoirthoir did you install libdvdcss2?
[02:31] <cameron_> I've tried phixnay and pelo no luck
[02:31] <bruenig> coded62, you need root, sudo mkdir /var/www/folder
[02:31] <hackle577> sanityx: i can see a few lines that appear to be about the ipod, but i get a crapload of lines like: "[142501.552000]  bcm43xx: Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode2.fw" not available or load failed."
[02:31] <coded62> ok
[02:31] <christis> hi there...is there any program i can use to burn an image to a DVD under ubuntu?
[02:31] <cameron_> I'm an ubuntu newbie, and okay at windows
[02:31] <sanityx> hackle577, Thats about your wifi card not working.
[02:31] <bruenig> christis, growisofs
[02:31] <Pelo> cameron_,  that's not what I asked,  when you plug your mp3 player it , doesn an icon appear on your desktop ?
[02:31] <aoirthoir> Raptor45, yup. I finally gave up:) but I dont mind..I'm satisfied so far.
[02:31] <cameron_> no it doesn't pelo
[02:32] <sanityx> hackle577, You have a broadcom wifi card. has nothing to do with the ipod.
[02:32] <sanityx> hackle577, Idk man :-(
[02:32] <cyphase> Why does Gaim's package description (in Ubuntu) say it supports Bonjour when it doesn't?
[02:32] <Pelo> cameron_, ok,  try with gtkpod then
[02:32] <crdlb> cameron_: look up libmtp
[02:32] <christis> bruenig: thank you :) i will try it now
[02:32] <cameron_> okay thanks
[02:32] <bruenig> christis, growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/whatever=whatever.iso (replace whatever with appropriate information)
[02:32] <Raptor45> guess I'm stuck with ogle then... lame
[02:32] <crdlb> cameron_: most creative devices are MTP afaik
[02:32] <cyphase> I know that Gaim itself supports Bonjour, but why isn't this support included in ubuntu?
[02:32] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - Anywhoo, I've got Ndiswrapper installed, but step 4 doesn't work for me and a multitude of others.
[02:32] <Pelo> cameron_,  if that doesn'T work, search for your model in the froum
[02:32] <Pelo> forum
[02:32] <cameron_> mtp?
[02:32] <rummik> chili555: would you happen to know if ubuntu has hostap-utls?
[02:33] <crdlb> cameron_: Media Transfer Protocol
[02:33] <chili555> rummik lemme check, jus sec
[02:33] <rummik> chili555: ok
[02:33] <hackle577> sanityx: hmmm, well i can see some stuff about the iPod but no glaring clues or anything
[02:33] <crdlb> cameron_: it was supported by gphoto2, but now there's a dedicated library called libmtp for it
[02:33] <sanityx> hackle577, put it on pastebin.ca and let me see
[02:33] <cycom> Ok, so I got suspend working.  The only problem now is that if I have a memory card in my laptop, it complains about unsafe device removal.  Is there a way to force it to unmount mounted flash memory and then remount it on boot?
[02:33] <vic2> GAAH guys, it says that i've used up ALL my /home/ space of 4.7 GB!!! That is impossible, what stuff can i delete?? any temporary stuff?
[02:34] <crdlb> vic2: use the disk usage analyzer
[02:34] <crdlb> vic2: (baobab)
[02:34] <chili555> rummik yes, in synaptic
[02:34] <bruenig> vic2, /tmp is where temporary stuff is
[02:34] <cameron_> I'm sure it will be supported eventually....Ubuntu is *awesome*  so stable, and does everything except those 2 things
[02:34] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: ok, this is different than how I installed, but try changing directories to where the file is might be your problem
[02:34] <rummik> chili555: ok, thank you very much
[02:34] <cameron_> now if ubuntu ultimate 1.4 was out, that would be sweet
[02:34] <meezyfuh> sorry to repeat myself, but anyone know of a program to access my mobile phone and transfer mp3s to it?
[02:34] <chili555> rummik np, good luck
[02:34] <bruenig> ubuntu ultimate is unnecessary and pointless
[02:34] <vic2> crdlb, where can i fint the disk usage analyzer?
[02:35] <rummik> chili555: thanks, i'm gonna need it
[02:35] <bruenig> vic2, du -h
[02:35] <kahrytan> Hello
[02:35] <christis> bruenig: can work also with .bin files?
[02:35] <hackle577> sanityx: how do i paste to pastebin.ca?
[02:35] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - Did that, it gives me the same effect as just running ndiswrapper from the console, the options for running it.
[02:35] <crdlb> !info baobab | vic2
[02:35] <ubotu> vic2: Package baobab does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:35] <cameron_> why is it unecessary and pointless bruenig?  I'm just curious
[02:35] <crdlb> hrm
[02:35] <bruenig> !iso | christis convert them

[02:35] <sanityx> hackle577, go to the site. its pretty simple.
[02:35] <hackle577> ok\
[02:35] <Raptor45> so no one knows of a media player to see fancy subtitles?
[02:35] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: do ndiswrapper -l
[02:35] <vic2> crdlb, huh?
[02:35] <leftyfb> cycom
[02:35] <coded62> how can i make my self the root/admin of the system    .............yes it is my computer
[02:35] <leftyfb> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2474560#post2474560
[02:35] <leftyfb> try that
[02:36] <leftyfb> coded62, sudo su
[02:36] <sanityx> Raptor45, I don't but I'll bet google does.
[02:36] <voltagex> is it possible to take ubuntu-desktop and turn it into ubuntu-minimal?
[02:36] <coded62> ok
[02:36] <crdlb> !find baobab
[02:36] <bruenig> Raptor45, fancy subtitles?
[02:36] <kahrytan> coded62: Why do you want too?
[02:36] <sanityx> voltagex, What do you want to do exactley?
[02:36] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - Roger, I'll get back to you in a sec.
[02:36] <ubotu> File baobab found in gnome-utils
[02:36] <cameron_> ah well, thanks for everyone's help cya
[02:36] <bruenig> what does baobab stand for?
[02:36] <coded62> be cause it wont let me edit my server in apache2
[02:36] <Raptor45> sanityx I've tried some googling wihtout success
[02:36] <crdlb> vic2: I'm not sure where it is in the menu, but run baobab
[02:36] <sanityx> voltagex, you can remove ubuntu-desktop without fear, if thats what you're worried about. it  does nothing.
[02:36] <voltagex> sanityx: I have a fairly slow connection, I downloaded ubuntu-desktop now I don't want gnome, I want xfce
[02:36] <crdlb> bruenig: not a clue :)
[02:37] <leftyfb> coded62 , sudo vi /etc/apache2/apache2/conf
[02:37] <bruenig> crdlb, does man baobab give some clue?
[02:37] <Raptor45> bruenig special fonts, colors, placement, etc
[02:37] <sanityx> voltagex, so install XFCE. But if you really want XFCE you should use Xubuntu
[02:37] <coded62> ok'
[02:37] <voltagex> sanityx: so I want to download xfce and remove all non-critical parts of gnome
[02:37] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - It says driver installed, device (1358:5f01) present.
[02:37] <sanityx> voltagex, so start removing them!
[02:37] <Raptor45> bruenig http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_SubStation_Alpha#Advanced_SubStation_Alpha
[02:37] <voltagex> sanityx: yes, but I don't have the bandwidth to download another 550mb iso
[02:37] <hackle577> sanityx: i am getting a 500 server error trying to get to pastebin.ca, im gonna post the output in this thread instead: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2573747
[02:37] <bruenig> voltagex, do not install xubuntu, it is very unstable, I would seriously just get the server and install xfce or move from ubuntu to pure xfce
[02:37] <sanityx> voltagex, Don't worry about it saying that ubuntu-desktop will be removed, doesn't mean anything
[02:37] <sanityx> hackle577, ok
[02:37] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: ok, that's good. What happens when you try step 4 then?
[02:37] <leftyfb> bandwidth doesn't run out :)
[02:37] <crdlb> bruenig: wikipedia says it's a type of tree
[02:37] <leftyfb> let it download for a couple days
[02:37] <voltagex> sanityx: every time I've tried that it's tried to remove something important
[02:38] <crdlb> makes sense
[02:38] <nixnoo2> ubuntu unstable thats heracy
[02:38] <harry> how do I get to OOo Math (the MathML program)
[02:38] <voltagex> leftyfb: yes it does, after I go over my cap, I get limited to 72kbit/72kbit
[02:38] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - However, there's no indication from the USB adapter that it's alive. As for trying step four, it's the same effect as just typing ndiswrapper in the console.
[02:38] <sanityx> voltagex, well thats due to dependancies. you cant remove a dependancy without removing the things that depnd on it
[02:38] <leftyfb> voltagex , ok, so you hit your cap and the download goes slower, so it takes longer
[02:38] <leftyfb> or get a friend to download it for you
[02:39] <sanityx> hackle577, Yeah man I have no idea what that means :-( sorry
[02:39] <voltagex> ok this is getting more complicated than it needs to be
[02:39] <tyler_> my laptop resolution is set at a 4:3 ratio, but i have a WXGA screen so i need it to be 16:9.. anyone know how to fix this?
[02:39] <bruenig> voltagex, what are you trying to do?
[02:39] <crdlb> tyler_: intel video card?
[02:39] <voltagex> apt-get install xfce4+ gnome- ?
[02:39] <hackle577> sanityx: just posted it
[02:39] <sanityx> hackle577, No I read the post. And I don't know what the error means.
[02:39] <tyler_> crdlb: yeah intel 950
[02:39] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: ok, this may take some time to try and understand what step 4 is trying to do. I'm going to read the ndiswrapper wiki to see if I get any answers
[02:40] <crdlb> tyler_: you can either use 915resolution, or the experimental driver in universe
[02:40] <hackle577> sanityx: oh
[02:40] <hackle577> sanityx: thanks anyway
[02:40] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: meanwhile, what happens if you skip step 4 and keep going?
[02:40] <sanityx> sorry
[02:40] <tyler_> where can i get 915resolution?
[02:40] <bruenig> !info 915resolution

[02:40] <porcho> hi there. I'm having some problems using rox at fluxbox. the slit and my toolbar keep disappearing...
[02:40] <funkja> I am trying to run a file that requires libgcrypt.so.11. I have the package libgcrypt installed... I am on amd64 bit Ubuntu feisty. Any ideas?
[02:41] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - In short, it gives me the usage options, same as running Ndiswrapper in the console.
[02:41] <leftyfb> funkja, libgcrypt11-dev
[02:41] <Pelo> funkja,  look in synaptic and install the related dev package , that often does it for me
[02:41] <funkja> Yea, I did that as well.
[02:41] <bruenig> funkja, do "dpkg -L libgcrypt" see what it actually installs
[02:41] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: even for step 5?
[02:42] <crdlb> tyler_: installl it with synaptic
[02:42] <crdlb> tyler_: oh nm
[02:42] <NETWizz> I just compiled and installed my own kernel
[02:42] <NETWizz> But it does not appear on my grub boot menu
[02:42] <bruenig> funkja, if there is anything like, libgcrypt.so.somenumber, just symlink libgcrypt.so.11 to that
[02:42] <NETWizz> How do I add it?
[02:42] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - I haven't tried that yet, I want to make sure step four works.
[02:42] <sanityx> NETWizz, you need to add it to /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:42] <sanityx> NETWizz, use the existing entries in that file as examples.
[02:42] <Pelo> NETWizz,  either add it manualy if you know the correct string or  reinstall grub
[02:43] <Pelo> !grub > NETWizz  check pm
[02:43] <|Jason8|> My partition is full, so I can't log into ubuntu.  Is it possible to repartition that hard drive by deleting the swap file, letting my main partition take up the entire disc?
[02:43] <funkja> Hm, actually now I do see the library, but the file just isn't seeing it. Should /usr/lib be in PATH?
[02:43] <bruenig> funkja, no
[02:43] <NETWizz> can't I update grub somehow?
[02:43] <mooniker> Hardware Q: I just swapped the video cards on two Fesity boxen. Both booted up fine and seem to be running fine. Is there anything config-wise I'm supposed to be doing?
[02:43] <NETWizz> I don't want to add it manually
[02:43] <NETWizz> there is like a UUID
[02:43] <NETWizz> and all kinds of parameters
[02:43] <Pelo> |Jason8|,  you need the swap partiton,  ou can try booting the live cd and removing some files
[02:44] <crdlb> vic2: did you find baobab ?
[02:44] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: according to the ndiswrapper wiki, if it says the driver installed hardware present thing, it's ready for step 5
[02:44] <tyler_> crdlb: i was using 855resolution before i got on here, how do i uninstall a package?
[02:44] <Pelo> !grub > NETWizz  check pm
[02:44] <|Jason8|> Pelo, I have a second swap partition on a different disc
[02:44] <|Jason8|> Do I have to modify some settings to make that one active?
[02:44] <crdlb> tyler_: find it in synaptic and click remove
[02:44] <Pelo> |Jason8|,  you can edit your fstab then
[02:44] <harry> how do I run the OOo MathML program
[02:44] <harris2005> hey guys can anyone help me with installing a ati driver fglrx
[02:44] <tyler_> thanks
[02:44] <UltimoHedgehog> phixnay - Oh? Well, maybe I'll go on ahead then.
[02:45] <crdlb> tyler_: alternatively: sudo apt-get remove packagename
[02:45] <Pelo> harry,  you'd need to start it from the terminal or make menu entry
[02:45] <porcho> does anyone use fluxbox with rox without problem?
[02:45] <kiowa> do I need to be good at programming to use ubuntu?
[02:45] <phixnay> UltimoHedgehog: the guide does things slightly differently than usual. Normally you cd to the directory with the driver files and do ndiswrapper -i driverfile.inf and it automatically adds the .bins or whatever else is there.
[02:45] <leftyfb> Kioshen , no
[02:45] <Pelo> porcho,  try asking in a fluxbox or a rox channel
[02:46] <phixnay> Ultimo|Yayinstal: if you have any weird outputs, tell me
[02:46] <Pelo> kiowa, no you don'T
[02:46] <Ultimo|Yayinstal> phixnay - Will do. In the meantime, can I have a link to that Wiki please?
[02:46] <Pelo> kiowa,  worst case scenario you'll have to learn a little something about the command line
[02:46] <harry> Pelo: so what's the name?
[02:46] <kiowa> i am completely lost when installing wine
[02:46] <Pelo> harry,  I don't know   try asking in #openoffice.org
[02:47] <harry> ok

[02:47] <cycom> leftyfb: tried. I still get the warning :/
[02:47] <leftyfb> click apply, or go
[02:47] <Pelo> kiowa,  just type sudo apt-get install wine in the terminal or look it up in synaptic  ,   this might help a bit  http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[02:47] <leftyfb> what warning?
[02:47] <kiowa> I'm using Fiesy Fawn and it's not in Add/Remove
[02:48] <leftyfb> it should be

[02:48] <Pelo> Jambon,  you'd have to check the forum for that I think
[02:48] <leftyfb> then search
[02:48] <Ultimo|Yayinstal> phixnay - Looks like everything went through, then.
[02:48] <bruenig> kiowa, sudo apt-get install wine

[02:52] <phixnay> coded62_ you don't want to be root. Use sudo
[02:52] <leftyfb> phixnay , the root password is not random, it's disabled/not set
[02:52] <mjp_ttc> well, what i can see is something like this ;
[02:52] <mjp_ttc> ?--------- ? ? ? ? ? /media/hdb2/home/cindy/.ssh/config
[02:52] <teethdood> backtrack2 is a livecd distro not related to ubuntu
[02:52] <phixnay> leftyfb: not set in that anybody can use it / set the new password?
[02:53] <bluedog> danm2007, is there a specific tool that you want off of backtrack?
[02:53] <gtk_sp> #ubuntu-es
[02:53] <leftyfb> phixnay , correct
[02:53] <NETWizz> okay
[02:53] <NETWizz> I don't want to re-install grub
[02:53] <Pelo> gtk_sp,   /join #ubuntu-es
[02:53] <bruenig> It probably is random, you can't create a user without a password can you?
[02:53] <NETWizz> I don't have the ubuntu cd
[02:53] <coded62_> then how do i edit the files in a server through the terminal
[02:53] <NETWizz> yet, my system still boots

[02:53] <phixnay> leftyfb: That doesn't sound right. I admit I don't know everything, but... I always assumed it was random

[03:08] <phixnay> Ultimo|Yayinstal: See if ctrl-alt-backspace unfreezes you

[03:09] <Pelo> t1g3r,  not me but it'S been mentionned here,  first check the cd   if it's ok you might want to try the alternate install cd it is txt based

[03:09] <Eleaf> yes
[03:09] <t1g3r> fair nuff, tryna find some software to run a cd integrity check
[03:09] <thunder> Cool.  I got to the bottom of why I couldnt get those disks up
[03:09] <Pelo> ubuntu_user07,  do a search in synaptic for  theme and remove all the kde related stuff
[03:09] <thunder> They are in FAT32 and got locked off by the system.
[03:10] <idefixx> tholme: thats not a command .. it identifies if you want to use binary or source packages in the /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:10] <thunder> I could only get to them from being root logged in
[03:10] <llama32andathird> i'm looking for a graphics card i can use to show off beryl.. i don't plan on using it for gaming, just desktop eye-candy. what sort of models and price range would i be looking at?
[03:10] <tholme> ok
[03:10] <Pelo> t1g3r,  there is an cd integrety check in the live cd boot meny,  a few lines down from start / install
[03:10] <tree> Can anyone help me with an ubuntu/apache question, or redirect me to the right channel ?
[03:10] <Ultimo|Yayinstal> phixnay - Aha, there we go. Turns out it was just bad luck, and now I've got wireless internet via a USB dongle! Thankies much for the patience and help!
[03:10] <ubuntu_user07> Pelo: nothign is checked for kde does that mean its fine?
[03:11] <kwtm> Wow, just finished reading the Slashdot story about 09-f9-11-02-9d-74-e3-5b-d8-41-56-c5-63.  What a party!
[03:11] <Pelo> ubuntu_user07,  do you still get the kubuntu boot screen ?
[03:11] <thunder> As it is, Eleaf - I now have the hang of apt-get and pretty much everything else.  It has been a very smooth switchover for me.
[03:11] <coded62_> any way possible in apache2 to password protect the server and only give certain people the pass
[03:11] <crdlb> llama32andathird: you really don't need much
[03:11] <tholme>   deb-src http://mirror.noreply.org/pub/tor <DISTRIBUTION> main
[03:11] <phixnay> Ultimo|Yayinstal: I'm glad I could help. I remember when I first started linux, ndiswrapper was the hardest thing for me : )
[03:11] <ubuntu_user07> I am not sure I would have to reboot. And I am in the middle fo soemthing. If it is the kubuntu bootscreen what should i do
[03:11] <usser> what story?
[03:11] <Eleaf> awesome thunder !
[03:11] <thunder> Thank you for all your help.  Like I say, this is the first time I have ever used anything other than M*ndriv
[03:11] <thunder> a
[03:11] <bluedog> coded62, google htaccess and htpasswd
[03:12] <scarter> i have an ntfs usb drive that will not mount rw with ntfs-config... tells me to clean remove in windows, but i don't have windows and can't find 'ntfsfix' that it says to use. anyone know where to find it or fix this?
[03:12] <Cosmo_>  I have a USB headset and a sound card but I can not hear anything through the headset how do I fix this? I am running 7.04 kubuntu
[03:12] <kwtm> usser: They discovered the Master Key for decrypting HD-DVD.  It's a number.  It's 09-f9-11-02-9d-74-e3-5b-d8-41-56-c5-63.
[03:12] <danm2007> every time i try and run Americas army for linux i get this error " Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0" " anyone know what it means or how to fix it ?
[03:12] <Pelo> ubuntu_user07,  also check synaptic for splash and remove the kubuntu one
[03:12] <thunder> So with best regards, once I have the hang, I will come back here to help in room if you will accept the help
[03:12] <crdlb> danm2007: video card?
[03:12] <Eleaf> thunder, yeah, it's pretty cool.
[03:12] <Sweetandy> woot
[03:12] <kwtm> usser: So, then the MPAA tells web sites: you can't say 09-f9-11-02-9d-74-e3-5b-d8-41-56-c5-63 on your web site!  We will issue a DMCA takedown notice!  So then the site went down.
[03:12] <Eleaf> thunder, definitely, almost anything is appreciated
[03:13] <ubuntu_user07> nothign for KDE is green does that mean I am ok?
[03:13] <thunder> no prob Eleaf

[03:13] <crdlb> llama32andathird: for low-end go ati
[03:13] <crdlb> llama32andathird: like 9250 or older
[03:13] <usser> aaaah good good, =)
[03:13] <thunder> You have helped me, I see no reason why I should not come back with new knowledge and help those out who gave me a kick start
[03:13] <llama32andathird> crdlb: ok, i'll have a look.. thanks :)
[03:13] <kwtm> usser: But the geek community was so incensed with MPAA for saying that the number is copyrighted, so now they're posting the number all over the place.
[03:13] <danm2007> crdlb  I have an Ati radeon x1600
[03:13] <kwtm> Pelo: Okay.  He wanted to know.

[03:13] <crdlb> danm2007: did you enable the restricted driver?
[03:14] <danm2007> crdlb Yes
[03:14] <|Jason8|> Does ubuntu come with a commandline-based partitioner that supports resizing the ext3 partition?
[03:14] <usser> llama32andathird: go nvidia
[03:14] <phixnay> crdlb: does ati still have problems being recognized? I had the same question, but I thought nvidia was traditionally better for linux.
[03:14] <crdlb> danm2007: pastebin the output of fglrxinfo
[03:14] <coded62_> Bluedog what is htpassword and htaccess
[03:14] <crdlb> phixnay: old ati cards are supported by open source drivers
[03:14] <thunder> anyhow, its gone 2am here, i am just about to settle to sleep b4 i am back to work at 10am.  See you soon, and thank you.
[03:14] <danm2007> crdlb how do i do that ?
[03:14] <llama32andathird> usser: any suggested lowish end models?
[03:14] <usser> llama32andathird: wont have problems with drivers and beryl if u go nvidia
[03:14] <crdlb> phixnay: so they're guaranteed to work out of the box
[03:14] <Pelo> ubuntu_user07,  check in the forum
[03:14] <crdlb> and never break
[03:15] <RobbieCrash> !nvidia
[03:15] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:15] <scarter> usb ntfs drive, won't mount (rw) w/ ntfs-config, says use 'ntfsfix', but can't find, anyone know where or how to fix this?
[03:15] <crdlb> danm2007: open a terminal and type fglrxinfo, then copy the output to a pastebin
[03:15] <usser> llama32andathird: but about ati crdlb raises good point
[03:15] <crdlb> !pastebin | danm2007
[03:15] <coded62_>  what is htpassword and htaccess
[03:15] <phixnay> crdlb: nice. I have a nvidia quadro or something, which has trouble playing youtube, so I thought a cheap $30 card would be a good choice

[03:16] <Pelo> congradulation coded62  you stumped the channel
[03:16] <usser> llama32andathird: dunno geForce 6200 would do

[03:17] <coded62_> stfu i dont like using google im lazy
[03:17] <ubuntu_user07> what is the difference between aptitude and apt-get
[03:17] <phixnay> why didn't ubotu answer my !
[03:17] <bluedog> coded62, its how apache does user authentication
[03:17] <coded62_> ;\
[03:17] <coded62_> ok thanks
[03:17] <crdlb> phixnay: the ! has to be the start of the line
[03:17] <kwtm> coded62_: htpassword and htaccess are ways to give simple password protection when using Apache as your web server.
[03:17] <danm2007> crdlb http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18742/   is that it ??

[03:18] <danm2007> crdlb it starts to open then bam
[03:18] <LGKeiz> how do you unload a app in ubuntu
[03:18] <salsero> i have deinstalled truecrypt. i want to install it again. can someone helb me
[03:18] <Turgon> Hello. I use Ubuntu Feisty, and I would like to install ATI's driver for my old Radeon 9200. What I have already tried is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18726/ Is there any way to make this driver work? (I only want to install it so I don't have to reboot to Windows when I want to play a game, so if it is not possible it is not a big deal).
[03:18] <Pelo> LGKeiz,  do you mean uninstall ?  try synaptic,  in the admin menu
[03:18] <llama32andathird> xarann: vmware would probably be the best... but it costs, so might be worth trying "virtualbox" - it seems like a nice free one
[03:18] <crdlb> danm2007: you used the restricted manager?
[03:19] <LGKeiz> not uninstall, but stop it from running
[03:19] <LGKeiz> such as Beryl
[03:19] <danm2007> crdlb i notice this says. " Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0" "    Display 1.0
[03:19] <coded62_> how would i connect to my apache2 server from outside my network
[03:19] <t1g3r> ah Pelo i dont have the option to try the install on another pc and im not that great with text based installations coz i barely know enough unix commands, any idea where i can get cd integrity checking software?
[03:19] <salsero> how can i stop running vmware
[03:19] <tree> llama32: vmserver is free
[03:19] <xarann> has anyone done it tho?
[03:19] <danm2007> crdlb and when i type fglrxinfo it says display 1.0
[03:19] <Pelo> t1g3r,  no I just wanted you to boot on another pc,  just to see if the cd works
[03:19] <xarann> i think vmware has probs with ubuntu7.04 too
[03:19] <bluedog> coded62, its a long process with many a page written about htaccess, best place to start http://shrinkster.com/olv
[03:19] <t1g3r> ah kk
[03:20] <tree> xaran: I'm running it at the momen no problem
[03:20] <danm2007> crdlb i mean when i type fglrxinfo it says  0.0  not 1.0
[03:20] <xarann> really?
[03:20] <Pelo> t1g3r,  did you mean that the cd gets to 3% or the installlation or 3% of the live cd boot &?
[03:20] <t1g3r> hmm it does actually boot but doesnt load the kernel, gets stuck at 3%
[03:20] <coded62_> ok so i start there on how to connect and passwords and stuff
[03:20] <usser> Turgon: u may wanna go with the driver in ubuntu repository
[03:20] <danm2007> crdlb like my error
[03:20] <xarann> and nopatching or whatever tree?
[03:20] <t1g3r> teh cd boots
[03:20] <tree> xatan: nope
[03:20] <t1g3r> i get the initial screen with a second counter telling me the options i can take
[03:20] <xarann> wich vmware

[03:22] <CientificoLoco> hello
[03:22] <zedfloyd> hi guys... need help
[03:22] <tree> I only someone could tell me how to log mod_cache calls properly (other than using strace...)
[03:22] <crdlb> danm2007: are you using Xgl?
[03:22] <LGKeiz> how do you unload a app in ubuntu
[03:22] <Eleaf> what happened to the transparent volume icon when you use a keyboard to change the volume?
[03:22] <idefixx> LGKeiz: that depends on what program you want to end. in case of beryl use the beryl-manager.. other tools have their own command like 'myapp --stop' and then there is there are tools like kill, killall and finaly there are scripts in /etc/init.d for some :)
[03:22] <LGKeiz> not uninstal
[03:22] <Pelo> zedfloyd,  and we need questiions
[03:22] <usser> Turgon: enable restricted repos in synaptics and install the following xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx-kernel-source fglrx-control
[03:22] <RobbieCrash> On a fresh install of feisty, with nvidia-glx installed, the drivers are installed and direct rendering is working, but I cannot change my refresh rate, which is annoying because I get  bouncing box on my screen telling me the input is not supported. I have a geforce 7600.
[03:22] <Eleaf> it did show a big icon that was transparent, now it went back to the small non-transparent thing..
[03:23] <Sleeperknight> I have a question about getting a usb Microphone working can someone help me?
[03:23] <CientificoLoco> I have installed ubuntu 7.04, how do I do if I wanna play a previous song when I put over the song my mouse?
[03:23] <Pelo> RobbieCrash,  edit xorg.conf manualy
[03:23] <crdlb> usser: that's not going to work
[03:23] <usser> crdlb: huh whys that?
[03:23] <RobbieCrash> Pelo where do I put the refresh rate?
[03:23] <zedfloyd> trying to install ubuntu and PC not recognizing the cd i burned... made sure to adjust bios to boot to CD... HELP
[03:23] <idefixx> LGKeiz: oh and there's also 'xkill'
[03:23] <Turgon> usser : thx, I'll try, maybe it works though it does not list my card as one of the supported ones :)
[03:23] <phixnay> zedfloyd: what does it do
[03:23] <crdlb> Turgon: are the open source drivers not working?
[03:23] <zedfloyd> did i burn the cd wrong... there is one file on the disk
[03:23] <Pelo> CientificoLoco,  I think you need to install mpeg123 , check in synaptic
[03:24] <drew> zedfloyd, yes, yes you did..
[03:24] <crdlb> Turgon: ati dropped support for your card after 8.28.5 (somewhere around there)
[03:24] <zedfloyd> it says it cant recognize the boot file reinsert and press enter
[03:24] <Pelo> RobbieCrash,  it's a range you can change ,  just about the resolutions
[03:24] <phixnay> zedfloyd: yeah, you burnt it wrong
[03:24] <zedfloyd> the file is 699mb
[03:24] <zedfloyd> crap
[03:24] <Turgon> crdlb : They work like a charm for everything else, it is only when I want to use cedega with OpenGL when I need ATI's
[03:24] <usser> Turgon: oh i see
[03:24] <coded62_> how would i connect to my server from friends house not on my network
[03:24] <drew> zedfloyd thats the iso, the image of what you're supposed to burn
[03:24] <ubuntu_user07> i followed a guide on ubuntuguide.org/wiki to get my extra mouse buttons workign but it doesn't work
[03:25] <usser> Turgon: whats the card u have?
[03:25] <drew> zedfloyd, get a program that can write ISO's to CD. and burn again.
[03:25] <crdlb> Turgon: so you get 3d accel, but not the things you need for cedega?
[03:25] <phixnay> zedfloyd: at least you don't have to download it again
[03:25] <Cosmo_>  I have a USB headset and a sound card but I can not hear anything through the headset how do I fix this? I am running 7.04 kubuntu
[03:25] <Turgon> Radeon 9200 :)
[03:25] <zedfloyd> i have nero
[03:25] <phixnay> use that then
[03:25] <drew> are you in xp?
[03:25] <crdlb> Turgon: you'd have to install 8.28.5 manually I'm afraid
[03:25] <Sleeperknight> same question as cosmo
[03:25] <coded62_> that works well with me
[03:25] <zedfloyd> yes in xp
[03:25] <Pelo> Cosmo_,  try looking it up in the forum
[03:25] <RobbieCrash> Pelo, there's nothing that says anything about refresh rate
[03:25] <Pelo> Sleeperknight, same answer as Cosmo_
[03:25] <coded62_> how would i connect to apache2 server from outside my network
[03:26] <drew> zedfloyd get "CDburnerXP"
[03:26] <Sleeperknight> ok
[03:26] <Pelo> RobbieCrash,  hors syn or something
[03:26] <danm2007> crdlb sorry i timed out
[03:26] <Turgon> crdlb : that's right, I have 3D acceleration enabled, but cedega shows only nosense in the screen xd
[03:26] <zedfloyd> should there be multiple files when im done?
[03:26] <idefixx> coded62_: http://youaddress
[03:26] <drew> yes
[03:26] <zedfloyd> and what should the file extension be? ISO?
[03:26] <crdlb> Turgon: note that if you use beryl or compiz, getting them to work with ati's driver sucks
[03:26] <danm2007> crdlb what was the last quistion you asked me ?
[03:26] <vic2> guys, what is the disk analyzer command?
[03:26] <crdlb> danm2007: are you using Xgl?
[03:27] <vic2> baoboa?
[03:27] <crdlb> vic2: baobab
[03:27] <vic2> what a WEIRD name
[03:27] <danm2007> crdlb i think so. im running Beryl
[03:27] <crdlb> danm2007: then yes
[03:27] <RobbieCrash> Pelo nothing like that, can you paste me your screen section so I can add it into mine and adjust as needed, pm or pastebin?
[03:27] <drew> zedfloyd ISO is what you should have when your download is complete, from that ISO "disk image" you should burn to disk, and it'll 'unpack' itself properly throughout the disk
[03:27] <coded62_> idefixx is it http://www.blahblah.com    or my http://ipaddy
[03:27] <crdlb> danm2007: run your game like this: DISPLAY=:0 game
[03:27] <nixnoo1> how do i get synaptic to ignore a wine update
[03:28] <zedfloyd> so Drew, when im done i should be able to look at the disk in xp and see multiple files unpacked, correct?
[03:28] <crdlb> !pinning | nixnoo1
[03:28] <ubotu> nixnoo1: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[03:28] <drew> zedfloyd, give me a sec, ill show you what it should look like when you're done
[03:28] <coded62_> -

[03:28] <Turgon> crdlb : Then maybe I'll keep rebooting to windows 2000 when I want to play a bit with my little brother (it is not that often really). I don't want to mess with how nice Beryl works right now :D Thanks for your time
[03:28] <zedfloyd> appreciate your help drew
[03:28] <phixnay> yeah - just open the .iso file with nero and burn it, that should be all you need to do
[03:28] <Pelo> RobbieCrash,  adjust it to your monitor's specifications
[03:28] <coded62_> idefixx
[03:28] <coded62_> is it http://www.blahblah.com    or my http://ipaddy
[03:29] <harris2004> hey, how can you mount a linux partition on windows vista?
[03:29] <danm2007> crdlb thanks that worked. is there anyway to tell it to always use that command ?
[03:29] <crdlb> Turgon: yeah the free drivers are really nice in how they support aiglx
[03:29] <idefixx> coded62_: that depends from where you want to connect if your inside your localnet (without dns) just use your ip address from the outside (internet) you can use your inet ip-address or domain name.
[03:29] <phixnay> harris2004: it has to be ex2 or ex3
[03:29] <crdlb> danm2007: change the launcher I guess
[03:29] <harris2004> i thinks its ex3
[03:29] <asherZ> hi all ubuntu pwns hard :D
[03:29] <danm2007> crdlb ok
[03:29] <phixnay> harris2004: then you can download the windows ex2 drivers, and it will work
[03:29] <RobbieCrash> Pelo is it option "horizsync" "range-range" or just horizsync rate
[03:29] <coded62_> ok ill just use my ip address to connect to server
[03:29] <scarter> my usb ntfs drive won't mount (rw) w/ ntfs-config, says use 'ntfsfix', but i can't find it. anyone know where it is or how to fix this?
[03:29] <asherZ> nvidia driver needs fix tho :P
[03:30] <phixnay> harris2004: let me look for it on google
[03:30] <scarter> !ntfs-config
[03:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs-config - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:30] <sanityx> scarter, the package is called ntfstools or something and if you want ot mount ntfs rw then use ntfs-3g
[03:30] <crdlb> !info ntfs-config
[03:30] <ubotu> 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

[03:30] <harris2004> thanks
[03:30] <scarter> sanityx: is ntfstools in the repo
[03:30] <harris2004> i tried that one but didnt owrk
[03:30] <harris2004> tho
[03:30] <sanityx> scarter, i think so
[03:31] <Pelo> RobbieCrash, it's a range

[03:39] <Pelo> dan__,  which folder ?
[03:39] <usser> coded62_: if your apache server is set up already then u can access it from your local network in firefox http://ip_address_of_apache_server:80
[03:40] <dan__> Pelo: It's a folder I made and put in the Home Folder. The folder was called Apps, it had like a link/shortcut thing to a application that I don't use anymore.
[03:40] <usser> coded62_: but u have to configure your router to be able to access your server from outside
[03:40] <coded62_> usser i want to acces it from a different network
[03:40] <coded62_> ok
[03:40] <funkja> What should the permissions be on the hidden directories in my home directory. They show up in when I browse for files in applications and don't want this to happen? (I was screwing with the permissions and now I cannot remember what they were orignally)
[03:41] <Pelo> restore the folder and delete the links usings   rm filename
[03:41] <usser> coded62_: right, so u have to look carefully at your router and see if there's something about default config utility address

[03:42] <coded62_> usser thanks for you help always someone to help me in linux unlike windoze
[03:42] <dan__> Pelo: the directory is - Apps\oggconvert-0.2.0\build
[03:42] <ubba> How do I change the permissions on my swap drive so I can write to it in ubuntu?
[03:43] <usser> coded62_: if not, look at your own ip, if its something like 192.168.x.y then your router config is 192.168.x.1
[03:43] <dan__> Pelo: and build as like a little lock above the name the folder.
[03:43] <Pelo> dan__,  rm is a command ,  you us it in the terminal ,
[03:43] <usser> coded62_: no problem
[03:43] <dan__> Pelo: ohhh....lol my bad. waht do i do in the terminal?
[03:43] <mlalkaka> Adam_: because most wifi device manufacturers don't provide any drivers for linux, nor do they provide device specifications allowing other people to develop drivers
[03:43] <Falstius> Adam_: I've spent a week trying to get drivers for a pcmcia card to work in win2000, the same card 'just works' in Linux.  It goes both ways.
[03:43] <bluedog> coded62_: route -an will show you your routes the one with 0.0.0.0 will be your router ip
[03:43] <Pelo> dan__, ok try this instead,    open the terminal   gksu nautilus    you'll be able to delete it in gui from there
[03:44] <dan__> Pelo: k, ill tell you the outcome
[03:44] <atrus> my X log says "No default mouse found, adding one", but the mouse is declared as a "CorePointer" in the serverlayout section. How can i resolve this? (it's an issue because my mouse it adds automatically isn't configured right)
[03:44] <chili555_> ubba why would you want to write to your swap partition???
[03:44] <RobbieCrash> Is there a fix/workaround for the issues with the new nvidia drivers on ubuntu causing xorg to lock up?
[03:44] <Pelo> dan__,  I already know the outcome, you'Re computer will explode taking 3 city blocks with it
[03:44] <mlalkaka> Adam_: yeah there are certain manufacturers that provide nice free/libre linux drivers for their devices. these work the best

[03:50] <Edwin> peepsalot : vmware better
[03:50] <nixnoo1> ubotu i want to have ur babies
[03:50] <peepsalot> it is possible to mount ext2 partitions in windows also
[03:50] <peepsalot> http://www.fs-driver.org/
[03:50] <arrow_> nice nixnool
[03:51] <Falstius> peepsalot: yes, but last I used it it was still buggy.
[03:51] <ubba> mlalkaka: no, I don't think I can
[03:51] <gyaresu> Samba works if I connect from a linux machine; no password so it's 'guest' (konqueror) smb://192.168.1.102/stuff but my xp machines can't seem to connect. They are asking for a password. Ideas?
[03:51] <RobbieCrash> backports are what I want when I want to talk about feisty aps on edgy right?
[03:51] <catid> open office question: is there a way to copy the result of a spreadsheet calculation into another spreadsheet?  right now it complains #REF
[03:51] <ubba> mlalkaka: it isn't displayed on my ubuntu desktop so I dont think I can
[03:52] <Falstius> gyaresu: set up a password with smbpasswd
[03:52] <mlalkaka> ubba: ok. well like peepsalot said, you can access your ext3 filesystem from windows by installing a program that you can download from http://www.fs-driver.org. install that program under windows.
[03:52] <dan__> Pelo, I get this error: "/home/dan/....__init__.py" cannot be deleted because you do not have permissions to modify its parent folder.
[03:52] <peepsalot> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/widows-ntfs-partitions-readwrite-support-made-easy-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[03:52] <mlalkaka> ubba: but you said you were trying to install a wifi driver for windows right? then you probably can't download anything from fs-driver.org.
[03:53] <gyaresu> Falstius: I have 6 client machines here and need just want guest access. Plus the linux machines can connect fine so I'd rather know why it's not working. Submit a bug if necessary.
[03:53] <Pelo> dan__, are you the root on this system ?
[03:53] <dan__> Pelo: yes
[03:53] <ubba> mlalkaka: it says that is for ext2 filesystems, will it still work on my ext3?
[03:53] <Falstius> gyaresu: i believe it is a 'feature' of windows.  You can just add a guest user with a dumb password and have all of the windows machines remember it.
[03:54] <chili555_> dan__ try this in terminal: sudo rm -rf /home/dan/.Trash/*
[03:54] <RobbieCrash> how do I rebuild xorg.conf?
[03:54] <mlalkaka> ubba: yes. ext3 is identical to ext2 except that it has what's known as a journal, which ensures that writing to the disk is safe even if it is interrupted part-way through.
[03:55] <Pici> RobbieCrash: `sudo dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg`
[03:55] <mlalkaka> ubba: the other option is to mount your windows partition under linux.
[03:55] <RobbieCrash> thanks pici
[03:55] <Pelo> dan__,  looking at this file  it doesn'T look like a file you made it looks like afile made by a prog during an installation,   you might have to restore it to it's proper location and unsintall the prog
[03:55] <zedfloyd> drew, i have a question about burning the cd... if you are still online
[03:55] <peepsalot> ubba, that last link i posted is for you, to mount windows partition in linux, then write to that
[03:55] <dan__> sudo rm -rf /home/dan/.Trash/* made it go away!
[03:55] <dan__> Pelo: thanks! :D
[03:55] <peepsalot> ubba, did you see it
[03:55] <gyaresu> Falstius: You are probably right but this should just connect. I'm giving the feisty live cd a go on my currently dead file server. So if it aint do-able from clicky-clicky I thought there would be some folks who had already whinged. Very annoying.
[03:55] <ubba> mlalkaka: fs-driver.org?
[03:56] <zedfloyd> do i want to convert ISO image when burning??
[03:56] <dan__> Pelo, thanks, thats all i needed ^^
[03:56] <peepsalot> zedfloyd, what do you mean?  convert to what?
[03:56] <gregorovius> hi... how can I change a user's language?
[03:56] <zedfloyd> or write disk from ISO image
[03:56] <mlalkaka> ubba: that's right: www.fs-driver.org
[03:56] <zedfloyd> Ubuntu ISO file
[03:56] <zedfloyd> im burning it to disk for boot up
[03:56] <Falstius> gyaresu: there have been, it is a bug on launchpad that there is no clear prompt to use smbpasswd or a GUI.
[03:56] <peepsalot> zedfloyd, what program are you using to write the image?
[03:56] <Dozzy> the text in the yellow info boxes seem to be dissappeared here -.-
[03:56] <zedfloyd> and i want to make sure im burning it correctly
[03:56] <coded62_> how do i get through my dsl box to my router to my server  (dsl boxi s asking for a pass to enter
[03:57] <mlalkaka> ubotu: tell ubba about ntfs and ntfs-3g
[03:57] <zedfloyd> cd burner xp
[03:57] <mlalkaka> ubotu: tell ubba about ntfs
[03:57] <mlalkaka> ubotu: tell ubba about ntfs-3g
[03:57] <ubuntu_user07> i have no sound when playign .mp3 files in amarok anyone know why
[03:57] <ubba> mlalkaka: so that program is executed in windows?
[03:57] <ubba> !info ntfs
[03:57] <GrueTamer> ubuntu_user07: do you have sound normally?
[03:57] <ubotu> Package ntfs does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:57] <bluedog> code62_: order of devices Internet->dsl modem->route->internal network->computer
[03:57] <gyaresu> Falstius: Cheers. As long as it's been noticed. Thanks for that.

[03:57] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:57] <peepsalot> zedfloyd, that program should know how to handle the file.  you want to burn the ISO file as an image
[03:57] <|StOnE|> some one that can help me install beryl in ubuntu 7.04
[03:57] <ubuntu_user07> yes i get sound when on youtube
[03:57] <bluedog> coded62 is that what you have?
[03:58] <coded62_> bluedog yep
[03:58] <peepsalot> zedfloyd, it should not require any converting
[03:58] <GrueTamer> ubuntu_user07: check muting and simple stuff like that, or maybe codecs...hell i dont know
[03:58] <ubba> mlalkaka: i'll give it a try, thanks for your help
[03:58] <bluedog> coded62, do you have a private ip address on your computer?
[03:58] <zedfloyd> ok i will give it a shot
[03:58] <GrueTamer> ask someone smarter than me :)
[03:58] <|StOnE|> some one that can help me install beryl in ubuntu 7.04
[03:58] <zedfloyd> i assume i have to set it for a bootable disk?
[03:59] <peepsalot> ubuntu_user07, open a terminal and run alsamixer
[03:59] <coded62_> BLuedog im running through a router with the ip 192.168.2.6  (youcant hack it its on a network)
[03:59] <ubuntu_user07> ok i found th eproblem but now i have issues with my headset
[03:59] <ubuntu_user07> i can hear myself in my headset
[03:59] <peepsalot> ubuntu_user07, this will show you every volume setting available, which sometimes cannot be found in GUI apps
[03:59] <disinterested> stone follow this guide http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[04:00] <bluedog> coded62, lol, ok I just wanted to make sure you weren't trying to log into the isp's router
[04:00] <vanberge> would anyone mind pasting me (pm of course) the monitor section of an xorg.conf?  mine only has two lines..  "Generic Monitor" and "option DPMS"
[04:00] <ubuntu_user07> yes i got volume now but my microphone keeps giving me feedback
[04:00] <coded62_> bluedog yea kinda i want to enter throught the router into my network to the server
[04:00] <bluedog> coded62, you will want configure your router to do port forwarding, unless you have a special dsl modem
[04:00] <|StOnE|> jejej que pedo lokos
[04:00] <mlalkaka> ubba: After you install the program from www.fs-driver.org. You can mount your linux partition under windows. That is, you will be able to access all the files on your GNU/Linux partition from My Computer under Windows (there will be another drive there, such as H: drive or something). So if you saved the desired files in some part of your Linux partition, you can access that file through a drive in My Computer in Windows. Optional
[04:00] <mlalkaka> ly, you can then copy the file over to your Windows partition. Then run the driver installation.
[04:00] <que-pedo-lokos> hello
[04:01] <ubuntu_user07> what can i do to fix my microphone i muted line in and microphone
[04:01] <que-pedo-lokos> i have the same problem
[04:01] <bluedog> coded62, the username and password are usually configured when the router is installed
[04:01] <|StOnE|> que es lo que hay pedo lokos
[04:01] <coded62_> BLuedog yep already did the problem is that i cant acces through my dsl box
[04:01] <ubuntu_user07> it seems tied to PCM but not sure what that is
[04:01] <coded62_> t
[04:01] <que-pedo-lokos> i need to do port fowarding
[04:01] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: do you see a small speaker icon around the top-right corner of your screen?
[04:01] <coded62_> bluedog i can find the pass for that
[04:01] <ubuntu_user07> yes
[04:01] <bluedog> coded62, does your router have an external ip address?
[04:02] <ubuntu_user07> if i mute PCM i don't hear my microphone but i don't hear anythign else either
[04:02] <que-pedo-lokos> hola stone
[04:02] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: right-click on it and select "Open Volume Control" from the context menu
[04:02] <coded62_> bluedog Uhh 76.1.34.40?
[04:02] <yunhual> hi, what is the difference between Feisty edgy dapper
[04:02] <ubuntu_user07> ok
[04:02] <peepsalot> there should be a separate volume control for microphone feedback
[04:02] <|StOnE|> hola aqui estoy tratando de ver si alguien me dice como instalar el maldito beryl
[04:02] <onur> slmm
[04:02] <ubuntu_user07> i have microphone all the way down and muted
[04:02] <que-pedo-lokos> ve en la pagina de wiki beryl
[04:03] <coded62_> bluedog then when i enter that it goes to the dsl box sign in screen
[04:03] <bluedog> coded62, ok your dsl modem shouldn't be blocking traffic, unless you isp is blocking you from running servers
[04:03] <que-pedo-lokos> ahi puede que se solucione
[04:03] <coded62_> bluedog im not sure
[04:03] <dawkins> Is it fine if the Alternate install CD gives the error message "ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP" but still boots fine?
 la forma mas sencilla es con automatix bleeder
[04:03] <peepsalot> !spanish | que-pedo-lokos
[04:03] <ubotu> que-pedo-lokos: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:03] <que-pedo-lokos> y que problema tienes
[04:03] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: if you want to use the mic, unmute it and increase its volume to the desired level.
[04:04] <ubuntu_user07> the problem is i hear myself in the headphoens when i use the mic not it doesn't work
[04:04] <deizi|AFK> i got a problem.. i tried o
[04:04] <bluedog> coded62, last time I checked embarq was allowing servers
[04:04] <agresor> my NTFS partition is in   /media/hdb5  how should i make it Writable with   ntfs-3g  from command line ?
[04:04] <|StOnE|> Edwin explicame automatix bleender no se mucho pero se algo
[04:04] <deizi|AFK> to install ati drivers
[04:04] <NETWizz> what is the difference between sp, lp, and slp?
[04:04] <bluedog> coded62, also embarq does straight bridging, so you need to look at your router specifically
[04:05] <peepsalot> NETWizz, in what context?
[04:05] <bluedog> coded62, linksys?
[04:05] <ubuntu_user07> if i mute it so i don't hear my mic i get ZERO sound at all
[04:05] <dawkins> Is it fine if the Alternate install CD gives the error message "ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP" but still boots fine?
[04:05] <coded62_> ok but wheneveri go to that page i need to go through prestige 645
[04:05] <NETWizz> VCR
[04:05] <gyaresu> Falstius: Would you believe that one can't 'sudo smbpasswd -a bob' It tries and then won't save the passwd. Nor can one 'sudo passwd' and create a root user. I'll just boot grml but one finds it quite frustrating ;)
[04:05] <coded62_> bluedog nope
 solo lo instalas y funciona como apt-get ... y solito te instala beryl
[04:05] <peepsalot> NETWizz, sp is standard play, long play and super long play i believe
[04:05] <coded62_> bluedog router seperate form dsl modem
[04:05] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: oh. then unmute the microphone but decrease the volume to an acceptable level. does that work?
[04:05] <NETWizz> ah
[04:05] <NETWizz> then SLP is the best?
[04:05] <ubuntu_user07> again it then lowers the volume of everythign else not just the mic
[04:05] <NETWizz> YOu get to put more TV on one tape
[04:06] <|StOnE|> Edwin pero como instalo eso ?
[04:06] <peepsalot> NETWizz, basically the longer play records at lower quality but can hold more recording time
[04:06] <Falstius> gyaresu: do it without arguements, sudo smbpasswd
[04:06] <HADES\stephans> does any one know how to join ubuntu to a windows domain
[04:06] <bluedog> coded62, when you go to your internal router you get the 645 prompt?
[04:06] <coded62_> bluedog yep happens everytime
 www.getautomatix.com  o automatix en google y listo
[04:07] <Music_Shuffle> !automatix | |StOnE| Edwin
[04:07] <|StOnE|> ok lo voy a intentar
[04:07] <bluedog> coded62, what type of router do you have, did embarq provide it?
[04:07] <cchance> Help me out here, I have a network with 3 computers on it. How can i allow all three of them to connect to my dialup connection? FireStarter?   I dont care that its slow
[04:07] <peepsalot> NETWizz, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_long_play#Tape_lengths
[04:07] <coded62_> bluedog nope its belkin54g we bought it seperatly
[04:07] <sangre> hi, i am trying to mount a usb hard drive.  Is there a website that very simply explains the mount commands?
[04:07] <Music_Shuffle> Grr.
[04:07] <|StOnE|>  !automatix
[04:07] <NETWizz> Ah
[04:07] <ubuntu_user07> does the problem i am having make sense?
[04:07] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: which slider are you lowering?
[04:07] <NETWizz> Wikipedia says SLP is lower quality than SP
[04:08] <|StOnE|> !automatix
[04:08] <|StOnE|> ?
[04:08] <NETWizz> How can that be with compression and all?
[04:08] <ubuntu_user07> PCM. PCM controlls my mic and everything
[04:08] <deizi> i fail loading ati drivers
[04:08] <gamaliel> Hola
[04:08] <Falstius> sangre: did you try to plug it in, it should mount automatically.
[04:08] <gamaliel> alguen abla espaol??
[04:08] <sangre> Falstius: i plugged it in, nothign happens
[04:08] <Pici> gamaliel: #ubuntu-es
[04:08] <Music_Shuffle> |StOnE|: the factoid basically says that it can break, and not to use it, pretty much
[04:08] <bluedog> coded62, when you go to admin your wireless network does it still redirect you?
[04:08] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: yes your problem makes sense (i think). when you speak into the microphone, you are hearing yourself through the head phones. but you do not want to hear yourself. is that right?
[04:08] <gamaliel> ok, gracias
[04:09] <peepsalot> NETWizz, yes, it is lower quality, because it is fitting more video into the same space.  for best video quiality, just stick with standard: SP
[04:09] <ubuntu_user07> correct. but if i mute the PCM so i do NOT hear myself i get NO sound at all
[04:09] <NETWizz> thanks
[04:09] <coded62_> bluedog no i enter the routers ip 192.168.2.1 to getto the router
[04:09] <ubuntu_user07> from any source
[04:09] <cchance> ljl, would you sugest FireStarter for my Three computer network?
[04:09] <|Jason8|> Man, I have a wierd problem.  There's something on my hard drive that's resizing to take up all of the space.  Has anyone had this problem before?  I even copied my 2 GB partition to a 35 gig partition, and the 35 gig partition only has 62 MB free.
[04:09] <NETWizz> What I still need to know is why my wirless driver quit working
[04:09] <NETWizz> Right after I compiled my own kernel my Intel 2100 quit working entirely
[04:09] <scarter> !info vpn
[04:09] <bluedog> coded62, so what is the default route on your server
[04:10] <scarter> !vpn
[04:10] <Falstius> sangre: on the command line, just after you plug in the usb device, type: dmesg | tail
[04:10] <coded62_> bluedog Uhh the dslbox >to router> server
[04:10] <peepsalot> |Jason8|, is this on a linux partition?
[04:10] <Falstius> sangre: that should say something about usb device plugged in and might give an error to explain why it isn't loaded automatically.
[04:10] <|Jason8|> peepsalot, yep
[04:10] <|Jason8|> ext3
[04:11] <peepsalot> |Jason8|, you can use filelight to get a nice graphical view of what is taking up space
[04:11] <co_nakal> hyyy
[04:11] <bluedog> coded62, ok you told me your router has an external ip address, and you have already configured port forwarding on that?
[04:11] <Falstius> sangre: and I assume you're using something more recent than breezy.
[04:11] <coded62_> bluedog the dslbox ip is 76.1.34.40 and the routers ip is 192.168.2.1
[04:11] <sangre> Falstius: it mentions bluetooth, but not a usb drive
[04:11] <coded62_> bluedog yep ive already configed it on the router
[04:11] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: which slider are you moving? you should be moving the microphone slider not the pcm or master sliders
[04:12] <ubuntu_user07> microphone and line-in are muted
[04:12] <|Jason8|> peepsalot, filelight?  I get a command not found
[04:12] <coded62_> bluedog port 80 server htp
[04:12] <ubuntu_user07> but its not changign anything
[04:12] <coded62_> bluedog http
[04:12] <sangre> Falstius: i am running the latest
[04:12] <peepsalot> |Jason8|, in that case, then sudo apt-get install it
[04:12] <mpfeif101> Right now whenever I get an IM from GAIM or something the window flashes a really light blue, so light that it's hard to tell it's even flashing.  Does anyone know of a way to make it flash like bright yellow?
[04:12] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: is the mic plugged into the microphone slot or the line-in slot?
[04:12] <bluedog> coded62, ok I don't think/remember if the 645 supports port forwarding
[04:13] <nixnoo1> hey i installed samba and i managed to get my linux share to show up in network neighbrohood but it asks me for user and password
[04:13] <ubuntu_user07> mic slot
[04:13] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: try sliding the line-in slider
[04:13] <sangre> Falstius: got it working
[04:13] <sangre> i am so embarassed
[04:13] <bluedog> coded62, we usually just set them up in bridge more
[04:13] <ubuntu_user07> it is all the way down and muted
[04:13] <sangre> thank you so much for your help
[04:13] <coded62_> bluedog so i need to sabotage my dsl box to get a new one ............damn      ...................bridge?
[04:13] <nixnoo1> my user name and pass dont work
[04:13] <Falstius> sangre: plug it into the wrong port? ;)
[04:13] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: what happens if the microphone is muted. you can still hear yourself?

[04:16] <z9999> Anyone here able to answer a question related to alsa?
[04:16] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: maybe it's the device itself. i suppose it's possible that the speakers in the headphones are picking up the same signal being sent to the computer through the microphone. do you have access to another computer (running a different operating system, preferably) to test the device on?
[04:16] <taggie> z9999, just ask the question

[04:19] <Ashbringer> Hey, for some reason gnome-art won't install login managers, does anyone have any idea why, is this a glitch or is it on my end? I can't get the install button to go green, and if I try to download, it segfaults.
[04:19] <gregorovius> !lirc
[04:19] <mlalkaka> ubuntu_user07: then go to File > Change Device. How many devices are there? Try changing the selected device and muting/unmuting the microphone slider there.
[04:19] <gregorovius> I think ubotu is down :(
[04:20] <ubuntu_user07> there is two devices onboard sound and pcisoundcard

[04:21] <Corbin|Tuxing> mpfeif101. can u see what ur doing like in dreamweaver
[04:21] <peepsalot> |Jason8|, so can't you mount your partition from the LiveCD to see what is taking the space?
[04:21] <usser> nixnoo1: well u have to add samba user
[04:21] <coded62_> bluedog will that tell em how to bridge if possible
[04:21] <bluedog> coded62, word of caution, you can screw up the modem to the point where you loose connectivity
[04:21] <usser> nixnoo1: smbpasswd -a <user>
[04:21] <|Jason8|> peepsalot, yeah, I did that.  I browsed to /media/hda1 and selected all and there's only 1.7 gigs worth of files.
[04:21] <bluedog> coded62, step by step
[04:21] <usser> nixnoo1: should do it
[04:21] <mpfeif101> Corbin|Tuxing, yes, its a wysiwyg (what you see is what you get) editor
[04:21] <pkm> thx for the help mission done
[04:22] <Corbin|Tuxing> mpfeif101. coolio thank u
[04:22] <mpfeif101> But the best part is that it's free, so try it and if you don't like it, no harm done ;)
[04:22] <|Jason8|> peepsalot, but it still says only 62 megabytes of free space, and it won't let me log in :/

[04:22] <coded62_> bluedog thanks  very much that last time we called customer support they really messed my comp up thanks so much
[04:22] <z9999> I am trying to resolve a microphone problem and was told to install the latest alsa version, I ran into problems using the wiki, and the alsa channel suggests I ask here. I finally got the install complete, but the Pkg Mgr shows the old version still installed. I asked before installing if I needed to remove the old alsa first and was told it was not necessary. Now I am having more problems...
[04:22] <z9999> ...than before. If I close the lid on the computer the graphics is screwed up when I open the lid and I have to reboot to clear it up. I was unsure if I needed to install new OSS drivers and no one seemed to know the answer. I have looked for another place to ask questions but have not found one yet. If there is a good place to get help please point me to it.
[04:22] <Corbin|Tuxing> mpfeif101. how do i download a tar.bz2

[04:23] <nixnoo1> usser. you are the man
[04:23] <bluedog> coded62, but yeah there support can be a pain
[04:23] <usser> nixnoo1: glad it worked =)

[04:26] <usser> nixnoo1: that was way to fast
[04:26] <mpfeif101> Corbin|Tuxing, there's an easier way, if you go to the downloads page, and scroll down to User Submitted Contributions (unsupported), click the .deb one
[04:26] <demonspork> how do you forcekill an app, is there a key combo?
[04:26] <Corbin|Tuxing> ok
[04:26] <Corbin|Tuxing> let me look

[04:31] <HymnToLife> !flsh | L30_
[04:31] <HymnToLife> !flash | L30_
[04:31] <abisen> i am in the pro
[04:31] <usser> HymnToLife: he wants amd64 plugin
[04:31] <L30_> ????what ??
[04:31] <Pici> HymnToLife: ubotu is busy
[04:31] <usser> L30_: sign a petition to adobe
[04:31] <HymnToLife> it is possible to install the 32 bit plugin on 64 bit Ubuntu
[04:32] <ubotu> |StOnE| Edwin: 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
[04:32] <HymnToLife> but it's a real PITA
[04:32] <usser> HymnToLife: for that u have to install 32bit firefox first
[04:32] <ubotu> Package vpn does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:32] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[04:32] <usser> HymnToLife: pain in the ass
[04:32] <bruenig> HymnToLife, nspluginwrapper I have heard might work, generally a chroot is in order though, or you can get firefox32
[04:32] <L30_> i just sign up to adobe
[04:32] <idefixx> i've got a prob with debsign on ubuntu... it just doesnt work. i can sign packages manually but debsign always complains 'secret key not available' and such, even if i supply a valid keyid. but im sure gnupg is set up correctly, it works with the same gpg stuff on debian.
[04:32] <abisen> i am in the process of compiling my custom kernel under ubuntu (coming from rpm i have some doubts) on how my dependencies and restricted module packages would play with a custom kernel
[04:32] <ubotu> Edwin: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:32] <ubotu> z9999: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:33] <HymnToLife> abisen, they wouldn't
[04:33] <Edwin> thanks ubotu
[04:33] <HymnToLife> you need to rebuild the modules yourself
[04:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lirc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:33] <lethu> singul, you can type sudo umount /dev/hdx in terminal where x is your cd drive letter (usually hdc)
[04:33] <bluedog> coded62, yes
[04:33] <L30_> can i run firefox32 in ubuntu 64 ?
[04:33] <EchoBinary> i have an interesting issue
[04:33] <L30_> i need some emulation packsges ?
[04:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repeat singul - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:33] <coded62_> ok nvm thanks
[04:33] <bruenig> L30_, yes, firefox32 is the name of the firefox that was hacked to work on 64
[04:33] <bluedog> coded62, screenshots are of windows but telnet it telnet
[04:33] <abisen> HymnToLife : wow... that would be a big undertaking ... looking at a small change i need to make on my custom kernel
[04:34] <cafuego> Or you run firefox64 and nspluginwrapper, with which flash works fine.
[04:34] <bruenig> cafuego, no java
[04:34] <HymnToLife> abisen, well, modules from Ubuntu packages might work if it's the same kernel version
[04:34] <P3L|C4N0> greetings
[04:34] <bruenig> although I can't recall the last time I needed jaa
[04:34] <HymnToLife> but it's still better to rebuild them for your kernel
[04:34] <bruenig> java
[04:34] <EchoBinary> running GDM on a laptop.  xorg.conf has all resolutions at 1280x800 (correct) however GDMs admin screen for Screne Res will only let me select up to 1024x768...  .. say what?
[04:34] <bruenig> in fact, yeah I don't even have it installed
[04:35] <EchoBinary> anyone else having issues wrapping thier brain around that one?
[04:35] <abisen> HymnToLife : So i should keep the uname and everything else same so that the apt-get dosent think it's a different kernel
[04:35] <voidmage> this is the third time firefox has crashed and lost my opened tabs upon reopening it
[04:35] <idefixx> .. honestly no one ever had that problem? well probably not an ubuntu issue then
[04:35] <voidmage> and i'm starting to get sick of it
[04:35] <spasticteapot> How do I switch what version of Java I'm using?
[04:36] <bruenig> spasticteapot, do you have multiple javas installed?>
[04:36] <oneil> Hi -- if I have my terminal window open for a long time.. and I do normal operations, I see that they show up in "ps" -- am I not closing them, or something? or is it something not to worry about?
[04:36] <spasticteapot> bruenig: Just installed JRE5 and JRE6.
[04:36] <bruenig> spasticteapot, probably need to update-alternatives
[04:36] <spasticteapot> Linux-Java is pretty silly, IMO.
[04:36] <voidmage> does anybody else have firefox crash all the time for them?
[04:37] <voidmage> or is it just me?
[04:37] <bruenig> java is pretty silly except as low lever stuff, never desktop apps
[04:37] <voidmage> seriously, it crashes more than windows.
[04:37] <bruenig> s/lever/lever/
[04:37] <bruenig> s/lever/level/
[04:37] <EchoBinary> im running GDM on a laptop.  xorg.conf has all resolutions at 1280x800 (correct) - however Gnome's admin screen for Screen Res will only let me select up to 1024x768...  how do i get around that? is there a gnome conf file too?
[04:37] <wastrel> firefox is crashy on flash sites
[04:37] <peepsalot> voidmage, yeah, it's been bugging me lately too
[04:37] <spasticteapot> bruenig: What about Limewire? or about every D&D game table application ever written?
[04:37] <HymnToLife> voidmage, it's just you, FF works like a charm here
[04:37] <spasticteapot> Or online chatrooms?
[04:37] <spasticteapot> I need speaker help.
[04:37] <bruenig> spasticteapot, crap
[04:37] <voidmage> peepsalot: for the third time it's lost my open tabs.
[04:37] <HymnToLife> only crashes about once a day :p
[04:37] <sanityx> Any chance we'll get Pidgin 2.0beta7 in the repos any time soon?
[04:37] <voidmage> crashes for me about 3x a day
[04:38] <cables> sanityx, no chance at all
[04:38] <voidmage> and once every month or two
[04:38] <cables> sanityx, it won't be in Feisty.
[04:38] <cafuego> mine doesn't crash at all
[04:38] <sanityx> cables, But its the same version . . .
[04:38] <peepsalot> wastrel, do you know if gnash solves any of this stability?
[04:38] <ubba> I am having trouble downloading from a private bittorrent site, Can anyone recommend a better client?
[04:38] <cables> sanityx, it's not gonna be there
[04:38] <oneil> heh,again! - if I have my terminal window open for a long time.. and I do normal operations, I see that they show up in "ps" -- am I not closing them, or something? or is it something not to worry about?
[04:38] <voidmage> it crashes, reopens then immediately crashes, then reopens without my tabs
[04:38] <HymnToLife> ubba, ktorrent
[04:38] <voidmage> any way that anybody knows of to restore my tabs?
[04:38] <wastrel> what's gnash?
[04:38] <idefixx> ubba: wine + utorrnet
[04:38] <cafuego> stop using myspace then
[04:38] <sanityx> cables, grr, i want to install it but I don't like compiling/not using debs
[04:38] <bruenig> ubba, I doubt it is client, what is the issue?
[04:38] <voidmage> i'd never use myspace.
[04:38] <HymnToLife> washbear, FSF-compatible Flash
[04:38] <cafuego> ubba: rtorrent
[04:38] <cables> sanityx, there's a good deb i found
[04:38] <cables> sanityx, i'll send a link
[04:39] <sanityx> cables, Thanks!
[04:39] <ubuntu_user07> i keep sending things to trash but the trash bin icon doesn't show files in it
[04:39] <EchoBinary> cables - send me that link too?
[04:39] <Bajoran> can anyone here help with fdisk? :X
[04:39] <washbear> HymnToLife - huh? speaking to me?
[04:39] <arejay> ubuntu_user07: ditto - i must click on the trash icon and empty it that way
[04:39] <cables> EchoBinary, sure
[04:39] <HymnToLife> !anyone | Bajoran
[04:39] <Bajoran> I defragged my ntfs device extreamly well, after doing a full chkdisk, I went into ubuntu and did ntfsresize -v -s 63G --bad-sectors /dev/hda1
[04:39] <HymnToLife> was for wastrel, sorry :p
[04:39] <Bajoran> then i restarted the comp, ran chkdsk, thenr estarted and ran/restarted windows
[04:39] <Bajoran> now what
[04:39] <Bajoran> :o
[04:40] <PurpZeY> Are there still issues with the Intel 2200BG on laptops w/ Feisty?
[04:40] <washbear> HymnToLife - no worries! :)
[04:40] <ubotu> Bajoran: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:40] <bruenig> !enter | Bajoran
[04:40] <M_Bison1> anyone know how to get a 5+button mouse working...its a wireless keyboard mouse combo and they connect through the same usb port..
[04:40] <arejay> PurpZeY: running fine here.
[04:40] <Bajoran> yeah ubotu its usually cause nobody awnsers me ;;
[04:40] <cables> EchoBinary, sanityx: here you go, for some reason it's on gnome-look... http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Pidgin+Beta7+DEB-package?content=57356
[04:40] <HymnToLife> Bajoran, just save you the hassle and use GParted
[04:40] <PurpZeY> arejay: Out of box without any additional drivers or anything?
[04:40] <ubuntu_user07> is there a way to have recent documents cleared automatically?
[04:40] <Bajoran> yay first two people to respond to me besides pablo
[04:40] <bruenig> fancy mice and keyboards always screw with people
[04:40] <ubotu> Bajoran: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:40] <Bajoran> ok
[04:40] <sanityx> cables, thanks a lot!
[04:40] <cables> no problem
[04:40] <arejay> PurpZeY: yep, ipw2200 driver is in ubuntu feisty.
[04:40] <bruenig> ubuntu_user07, write a script to do it is what I ended up doing
[04:41] <cables> lol, ubotu is waking up slowly
[04:41] <avenged56> hey is anyone there
[04:41] <ubuntu_user07> how would i do that?
[04:41] <Bajoran> I mean, the first two people to respond to me questions besides pablo over a period of 4 months
[04:41] <PurpZeY> arejay: Is it difficult to configure the WEP settings?
[04:41] <M_Bison1> i've read a bunch of stuff on the forums, but there is nothing about if you have a keyboard and mouse on the same connector...
[04:41] <bruenig> ubuntu_user07, well I wrote a script and the keyboard shorcutted it, the script would be something as simple as "rm ~/.recently-used"
[04:41] <EchoBinary> thanks :)
[04:41] <sanityx> cables, its safe to install this over b6? or remove it first
[04:41] <cables> sanityx, it's safe
[04:41] <avenged56> does anyone know how to get the svideo to work on a laptop
[04:41] <ubuntu_user07> do i just write that in a file?
[04:41] <cables> sanityx, back up ~/.gaim first
[04:41] <arejay> PurpZeY: no, feisty now has Networkmanager which supports WEP/WPA1/WPA2
[04:41] <Bajoran> alright, my problem with gparted is that its incorrectly reporting the used amount of space on my ntfs now, it shows 7gb free and I had 19gb before I ntfsresized
[04:41] <M_Bison1> ok, i guess i'll take that as a no
[04:42] <sanityx> cables, k
[04:42] <M_Bison1> good to know.
[04:42] <bruenig> ubuntu_user07, the script should have two lines, line 1: #!/bin/bash    line 2: rm ~/.recently-used
[04:42] <sanityx> I wonder how safe pre-release patches are
[04:42] <bruenig> ubuntu_user07, save that in a file, then do "chmod +x thatfile"
[04:42] <Bajoran> I lost a few gb somewhere, my hd is an 80gb and its reporting 76.33 gb
[04:43] <SeveredCross> Bajoran: That's GB vs GiB for you. :)

[04:44] <bruenig> HymnToLife, at least warn him once
[04:44] <SeveredCross> So, 80*1000 ~ 76.33*1024
[04:44] <ubuntu_user07> what do i save the file as?
[04:44] <ubba> HymnToLife: ktorrent gives me an error saying "Port 6881 is blacklisted"
[04:44] <bruenig> ubuntu_user07, whatever you want
[04:44] <EchoBinary> awesome :) that was quick and easy
[04:44] <ubuntu_user07> any particular extention?
[04:44] <bruenig> ubba, change your port
[04:44] <SeveredCross> BC actually reports 78
[04:44] <Bajoran> whats the command to mount all?
[04:44] <SeveredCross> sudo mount -a
[04:44] <EchoBinary> so does anyone know abt a gnome conf that might be seperate from xorg.conf?
[04:44] <PurpZeY> Is there a battery monitor on directly in Feisty?
[04:44] <bruenig> ubba, go into edit > preferences or whatever its equivalent to that is and change it
[04:44] <SeveredCross> That mounts everything that's in /etc/fstab
[04:44] <Bajoran> hm
[04:44] <SeveredCross> PurpZeY: Yep, there's a panel applet.
[04:45] <Bajoran> how about unmounting?
[04:45] <bruenig> Bajoran, you don't unmount all
[04:45] <sanityx> cables, it didnt even overwrite gaim 2b6
[04:45] <bruenig> Bajoran, sudo umount /dev/name for a specific drive
[04:45] <sanityx> cables, so i have both now
[04:45] <cables> sanityx, it shouldn't
[04:45] <cables> sanityx, it's not supposed to
[04:45] <ubba> bruenig: is there a way to tell which port the site will let you use?
[04:46] <ubuntu_user07> i did chmod now what
[04:46] <bruenig> ubba, generally anything except 6881-6889
[04:46] <PurpZeY> SeveredCross: I am considering switching my laptop over...I switched my desktop a few weeks ago...If I did it, I would back up all my documents and also make a recovery disk, but are there any risks of installing feisty on a laptop that wouldn't be present on a desktop? I mean, this computer is my primary means of education if it gets messed up I will really be up the creek
[04:46] <Bajoran> blarg so I can't upgrade my kernel without downloading the fiesty distro/
[04:46] <colbert> I want to extract file.tar.bz2 to /usr/local/share, i keep messing up the cmd line even using tar --help, can someone help
[04:46] <bruenig> ubuntu_user07, well see if it works first off by doing "./whateveryounamedit"
[04:46] <wastrel> major problem with linux on a laptop is poor support for hibernate/suspend and poor power management
[04:46] <SeveredCross> colbert: Why would you want to do that?
[04:46] <bruenig> colbert, sudo tar xf file.tar.bz2 -C /usr/local/share/
[04:46] <HymnToLife> colbert, sudo tar xjvf file.tar.bz2 -C /usr/local/share
[04:46] <smallfoot-> http://img460.imageshack.us/img460/3686/psakittymk8.jpg
[04:46] <ubuntu_user07> no it didn't
[04:46] <fsrAWAI> can anyone help me with wireless (chipset ralink rt61) and 7.04? it looks like I can connect (it's ad hoc) and it even shows the network strength but I cant use firefox or any other internet application and I dont see any gateway or ip information...
[04:46] <bruenig> mine is shorter, I win
[04:46] <HymnToLife> ow, bruenig beat me to it
[04:46] <PurpZeY> wastrel: Ubuntu doesn't support hibernate?
[04:47] <wastrel> fully functional for the most part
[04:47] <ubuntu_user07> i think im missing something in the process
[04:47] <wastrel> PurpZeY:  it depends on your specific configuration
[04:47] <colbert> thanks
[04:47] <krbrowning> What desktop program should I use to resize my windows partition?
[04:47] <SeveredCross> !ntfs
[04:47] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[04:47] <PurpZeY> wastrel: configuration of Ubuntu or of the laptop make, etc?
[04:47] <SeveredCross> (That's just for me...)
[04:47] <bruenig> ubuntu_user07, yeah, I would try to read up on bash scripting, understand the process a little bit more then you can not only write this script but any others which is nice
[04:47] <tomh> what the correct syntax for "host name"
[04:47] <colbert> bruenig/HymnToLife what is the diff from "tar xf" to "tar xjvf" ?
[04:47] <M_Bison123> how do i get a 5+button mouse working? its a wireless keyboard mouse combo and they connect through the same usb port..
[04:47] <ubuntu_user07> ah ok i may do that when i get more time thanks
[04:48] <wastrel> PurpZeY:  i know nothing more about it other than it works for some people, doesn't for others. I haven't gotten it working but haven't tried very hard either...

[04:48] <underwatercow> Someone heeeeellllp! lol... I'm having serious issues trying to install this new nvidia card...
[04:48] <HymnToLife> colbert, the v switch will tell tar to print the names of the files as they're extracted
[04:48] <cables> GOT IT!
[04:48] <bruenig> colbert, j specifies bunzip which is unnecessary now because tar automatically detects that, v is verbose it outputs all the filenames as they are extracted again unnecessary
[04:48] <HymnToLife> the j switch tells tar to ube bzip, it's optional as tar can autodetect it most of the time
[04:48] <colbert> gotcha
[04:48] <HymnToLife> I just use cause I'm so old-fashioned :p
[04:49] <bruenig> is it bunzip or bzip
[04:49] <jamis_lappy> neither of the ubuntu cd's I've burned are working :(
[04:49] <bruenig> I know you have gunzip, maybe I am mixing those
[04:49] <ubba> bruenig: I changed the port in preferences to 6891 and it still gives me the same error of "Port 6881 is blacklisted"
[04:49] <HymnToLife> bunzip, for that matter, yes
[04:49] <bruenig> ubba, you didn't really change it then
[04:49] <krbrowning> What program should I be using to manage hardisk partitions?
[04:49] <comicinker> hello! I want to compile the tutorial example from ANJUTE but the compiler cannot find the gtk/gtk.h. any idea
[04:49] <comicinker> ?
[04:49] <bruenig> ubba, make sure it is applied and restarted or whatever else you have to do, redownload the torrent file, just make sure it is all clean
[04:49] <underwatercow> can someone please help me get Ubuntu working correctly with my new nvidia card?
[04:50] <sanityx> hooray, pidgin!
[04:50] <bruenig> sanityx, what is the changelog on that?
[04:50] <tjabri_> HALLOOOOOO!!!
[04:50] <sanityx> on pidgin? well there are lots of GUI changes. idk, if you want the changelog go to pidgin.im
[04:50] <bruenig> sanityx, I thought about packaging it but it doesn't seem worth it, more like a rush to get out something branded correctly
[04:50] <comicinker> I'm sure I need some libraries, but I don't know which one...
[04:50] <jamis_lappy> krbrowning, what exactly do you want to "manage" on the drives?
[04:50] <sanityx> bruenig, I installed it via a .deb
[04:50] <fsrAWAI> ah fuck this... gonna switch back to feudora... no wireless no switching...
[04:50] <fsrAWAI> bye
[04:51] <HymnToLife> comicinker, sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[04:51] <comicinker> thank you
[04:51] <krbrowning> jamis_lappy: I want to resize my windows partition
[04:51] <underwatercow> can someone please help me with my nvidia card?
[04:51] <ubuntu_user07> bruenig: when i am at the logon screen i see username-desktop in the bottom right corner is there a way to change that
[04:51] <ubba> bruenig: I tried getting another file off the site and it somehow initiated the other one...thanks a lot
[04:52] <Naitse> hi all!
[04:52] <haietlik> hi!  quick question... when viewing man pages in a terminal, how do i exit the man page without simply closing the terminal window?
[04:52] <Naitse> got a little problem
[04:52] <jamis_lappy> krbrowning, is it an ntfs or fat partition?
[04:52] <underwatercow> haietlik: hit q
[04:52] <HymnToLife> haietlik, q, as in Quit :p
[04:52] <bruenig> ubba, yeah just some background, they blacklist those ports because they are the default bittorrent ports and some ISPs throttle them for that reason if you care
[04:52] <haietlik> thanks!  (i'm kinda new to this)
[04:52] <Naitse> install beryl, but the border windows disapears
[04:52] <Naitse> :s
[04:52] <Naitse> can{t maximice close or move
[04:53] <Naitse> any idea?
[04:53] <underwatercow> Can someone pleeeease help me with my nividia card? I'm having issues getting X server to work with it
[04:53] <comicinker> HymnToLife: it is already installed
[04:53] <haietlik> wow... that worked surprisingly well... duh... i'll get my mind wrapped around this linux stuff yet!
[04:53] <ubba> Ahhh thanks for the info man
[04:53] <krbrowning> jamis_lappy: It is ntfs,
[04:53] <bruenig> Naitse, #ubuntu-effects
[04:53] <HymnToLife> !find gtk.h
[04:53] <EchoBinary> anyone know why the max screen resoluton on Gnome would be 1024x768 when the xorg.conf file lists only 1280x800 for all depths? (native resolution is 1280x800)
[04:53] <TTRanger> Anybody read that Dell officially chose Ubuntu version of Linux for their distros?  Announcement today...
[04:53] <Naitse> ;) THANKSS!!!! bruenig
[04:53] <bruenig> never had such a reaction to a redirect to another channel
[04:53] <bruenig> odd
[04:53] <ubba> Are AVI's a restricted format?
[04:54] <underwatercow> does no one in here know how to set up an nividia card?
[04:54] <underwatercow> :(
[04:54] <verb3k> I installed samba and it worked great ...but when I try to open the share folder from windows it prompt me to enter a password.....why is that? and how to make it passwordless? Thanks in advance
[04:54] <_Steve_> verb3k: public = yes ?
[04:54] <bruenig> ubba, avi's are container's, they can be many different actual things with different audio and video codecs
[04:54] <HymnToLife> ubba, depends what you put in them
[04:54] <EchoBinary> verb3k: play with smbpasswd
[04:54] <Pelo> TTRanger, Ithink someone mentionned it , but he was drowned out by the hd-dvd key thing
[04:54] <EchoBinary> try adding a user/password
[04:54] <underwatercow> verb3k: I don 't believe you can remove the password, but there is smbpasswd which you can use to assign a password to a name
[04:54] <Taladan> underwatercow: I think most of the people here are probably either busy helping someone else or waiting to hear what it is, exactly that your card is or isn't doing.
[04:54] <TTRanger> Pelo Seems like a significant story
[04:54] <underwatercow> lol
[04:55] <TTRanger> But it does become easy to get drowned out in such a big channel...   :-)
[04:55] <sanityx> Can I install vmware server entirely through the repos?
[04:55] <TTRanger> glub glub glub
[04:55] <verb3k> Thanks guys....I will try that :)
[04:55] <underwatercow> Taladan: it flat out isn't working :-p I put the new card in, X server crashed and burned, and that's about it... I managed to get basic functionality by switching to VESA and manually starting gnome-panel
[04:55] <coded62> bluedog after i enter all the info like the how to said how can i access my server
[04:55] <Taladan> What card
[04:55] <comicinker> HymnToLife: which folder? /lib?
[04:55] <SeveredCross> underwatercow: ATI videocard?
[04:55] <underwatercow> Taladan: 8800GTS
[04:55] <EchoBinary> sanityx: vmware's website has a good installer....  i dont think its in the  repo's though
[04:55] <ubba> So what really matters is if the avi is an xvid or divx?
[04:56] <Taladan> SeveredCross: nvidia
[04:56] <SeveredCross> Ah.
[04:56] <Grlubb> TTRanger: glub!!
[04:56] <sanityx> EchoBinary, I know it does but that'd make my life easier.
[04:56] <Taladan> underwatercow: did you try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new?
[04:56] <underwatercow> Taladan: I also tried installing drivers from the site and didn't seem to work
[04:56] <DPic> video playback doesn't work on my machine
[04:56] <underwatercow> Taladan: yes
[04:56] <HymnToLife> comicinker, that file definitely is in libgtk2.0-dev
[04:56] <DPic> i've tried in vls and totem
[04:56] <Taladan> did it give you any errors?
[04:56] <underwatercow> Taladan: not that I saw
[04:56] <DPic> i get sound but no video
[04:56] <TTRanger> Wow, the action in here is so fast it is like watching quick rolling credits at the end of a movie!
[04:56] <HymnToLife> comicinker, or libgtk1.2-dev if you need GTK 1.x

[04:58] <comicinker> HymnToLife: I try this...
[04:58] <Pelo> TTRanger,  do you have a question for us ?
[04:58] <Bajoran> Is there any program that works like gparted in a gui? If I use gparted, no matter how many times i defrag and chkdisk it allways reports one small cluster of errors (even windows chkdsk dosen't), so it errors out evry time
[04:58] <zedfloyd> im using cdburner xp pro
[04:58] <DPic> When i play videos regardless of format or source (stream or local) it doesn't work. I'm not sure when this started happening. I get sound but no video.
[04:58] <TTRanger> Pelo Not atm
[04:58] <EchoBinary> ;p;
[04:58] <EchoBinary> err..  lol
[04:58] <Bajoran> I would like to resize my /dev/hda1 ntfs to 60GB on ubuntu, i've already run ntfs resize and if I go the manual route i'd have to delete a partition in fdisk and create a new one right?
[04:59] <Pelo> zedfloyd,  look for  burning image to cd , or someting similar
[04:59] <jamis_lappy> krbrowning, you might check this out: http://www.nishants.net/articles/ntfsresize.htm    google is smarter then me

[04:59] <Bajoran> usless channel, every time I ask an intelligent question I get ignored
[05:00] <Pelo> Bajoran,  if you can , ,try backuping your imporant data,  partitionning from scratch, then reinstall windows on one partiton and ubuntu on the other
[05:00] <holy-cow> Bajoran, indeed noob overflow
[05:00] <Pelo> zedfloyd,  I wouldn't think so
[05:00] <comicinker> HymnToLife: I installes libgtk1.2-dev and restarted anjute, but it still cannot find the gtk.h

[05:01] <Bajoran> k i'm going to do it myself thx for the overabundant help
[05:01] <holy-cow> Bajoran, i would also recommend doing it from scrathc like Pelo suggested
[05:01] <Taladan> Bajoran: it's not necessarily that you're getting ignored, more likely that your question is getting lost in the scroll, or other people who have experience for what you want are helping someone else.
[05:01] <Taladan> underwatercow: yes
[05:01] <nn-laptop> well it will come in handy for though's debugging;; 35G open free space
[05:01] <Bajoran> ok taladan should I start using an advert bot then?
[05:02] <underwatercow> Taladan: It says mpeg4 header damaged a lot of times, and then says ..Too much output, ignoring rest...
[05:02] <holy-cow> sure if you want to get permabanned
[05:02] <Bajoran> so get ignored or get permaband
[05:02] <Bajoran> hmmm
[05:02] <Taladan> Bajoran: No, just exercise a little patience and understanding and the same will be afforded to you when someone who knows how to help you sees your question
[05:02] <underwatercow> Taladan: when the grub bootloader is starting, it does display an error about not being able to allocate mem, or something like htat
[05:02] <Pelo> nn-laptop,  if you realy want to contribute  look in the ubuntu.com site for the how to contribute section
[05:02] <holy-cow> Bajoran, after a certain point its just faster to google up th einfo
[05:02] <Taladan> underwatercow: that's odd...try a reinstall of your nvidia driver - sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-new
[05:03] <Bajoran> yes I noticed that a few months ago when I was on here for a while
[05:03] <Bajoran> nobody awnsered then
[05:03] <Taladan> them apt-get install it again
[05:03] <holy-cow> ubuntu is copiously well documented
[05:03] <comicinker> HymnToLife: I installes libgtk1.2-dev and restarted anjute, but it still cannot find the gtk.h
[05:03] <vecina> For the love of Tux, somebody tell me why i have to reinstall dbus, hal and pal all the time! Why on earth are they getting messed up?
[05:03] <EchoBinary> perhaps if you change your nick to 'Cardasian'?
[05:03] <Bajoran> hah
[05:03] <vecina> ive asked on the forums and here a billionm times :_;
[05:03] <underwatercow> Taladan: reinstall it now?
[05:04] <Taladan>  underwatercow yeah
[05:04] <holy-cow> i'm not kidding tho
[05:04] <underwatercow> Taladan: done, now what?
[05:04] <Taladan> Bajoran - try reposting your question again....all I see from you at this point is where you're upset because people aren't catering to you
[05:04] <holy-cow> most questions here are below noob, i.e. most people don't clue in that you can absolutely google everything you need
[05:04] <tjabri_> holy-cow: i gotta agree
[05:04] <tewny> is there a restriction on identd length ?
[05:04] <Pelo> Bajoran,  I answered you ,  if you can't do it with gparted I gave you a solution,    if you want to sped money to do it , try buying partition magic,  it's a windows partitionner so it is garrantied todo the job
[05:04] <Taladan> underwatercow: try restarting your X server and seeing if it picks it up
[05:04] <holy-cow> or they are at that stage anyway, eventually they all start googling
[05:05] <Bajoran> ya pelo but i'm not gonna do that
[05:05] <Bajoran> thx
[05:05] <Bajoran> I would like to resize my /dev/hda1 ntfs to 60GB on ubuntu, i've already run ntfs resize to 60GB and if I go the manual route i'd have to delete a partition in fdisk and create a new one right?
[05:05] <EchoBinary> ive been googling...  i keep getting the same old dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver...
[05:05] <comicinker> Has anybody an idea how to compile the ANJUTE tutorial example? it is missing the gtk/gtk.h. which librarie do I need?
[05:05] <bruenig> Bajoran, sure
[05:05] <underwatercow> Taladan: I think I know how to do that, but just for the sake of being sure... can you tell me what I should do?
[05:05] <verb3k> underwatercow: I ran the smbpasswd command and it asked me to enter a password ..couls you please explain what this password is? thanks
[05:05] <krbrowning> jamis_lappy: It seems gparted is not included by default
[05:05] <idefixx> Pelo: guaranteed is a bit too much i'd say ;)
[05:05] <Bajoran> yes but I'm not really familliar with the fun time mucking about with boot tables
[05:05] <EchoBinary> problem is that my xorg.conf and my running gnome are doing two diff things..  its odd
[05:05] <bruenig> comicinker, likely gtk(something)-dev
[05:05] <JJJetPlane> I can't get ndiswrapper to accept the wpa config...pretty sure i'm doing it wrong :| Not sure where to turn for help so I came here.
[05:05] <holy-cow> Bajoran, i can tell you right now NO ONE here will handhold you through that
[05:05] <Bajoran> ;;
[05:05] <holy-cow> clearly you already know the answer
[05:05] <Bajoran> k
[05:05] <verb3k> underwatercow: could*
[05:06] <Taladan> Bajoran - as far as I know, yes.  The only thing I know to do is to tell you to try Gparted.  last time I mucked about with a windows partition, that worked for me.
[05:06] <underwatercow> verb3k: you can add a user, and then give that user a password... it is that user name and password that you will use to access the files accross the network
[05:06] <Taladan> underwatercow: is your xserver currently running?
[05:06] <Pelo> Bajoran,  which I why I recommand a safe easy way to go about it,   back up and start from scratch
[05:06] <bruenig> Bajoran, or you could use parted
[05:06] <comicinker> brnig: I already installed libgtk2.0-dev and libgtk1.2-dev
[05:06] <Bajoran> Taladan, gparted no worky wokry cause it gets worked up about an imaginary hard drive fault
[05:06] <EchoBinary> Bajoran: hate to ask - but are you sure the fault is imaginary?
[05:06] <lgc> What's the name of the file APT reads in order to keep track of the installed packages?
[05:06] <underwatercow> Taladan: I used tty1 to login through the terminal and run xinit...
[05:06] <EchoBinary> Bajoran: try runnign badblocks on the hdd to check?
[05:07] <verb3k> underwatercow: I see....thanks for your time
[05:07] <comicinker> bruenig: I already installed libgtk2.0-dev and libgtk1.2-dev
[05:07] <EchoBinary> also i may be wrong, but does gparted play well with ntfs?
[05:07] <underwatercow> verb3k: sorry I don't have specific commands, but you should be able to man page it... I'm having issues navigating my computer at the moment, lol
[05:07] <Bajoran> any commandline suggestions EchoBinary ?
[05:07] <Taladan> Bajoran - then my suggestion to you would be to probably do what Pelo says and back up your data (immediately) then nuke and try from fresh.  I'm sure there are ways to force it, but at this point the easiest and quickest route is probably a reinstall
[05:07] <EchoBinary> i had some issues with it and ntfs not too long ago - that may have just been me
[05:07] <Bajoran> EchoBinary, i've run chkdisk and defragmented multiple times
[05:07] <Taladan> underwatercow: type startx at the terminal
[05:08] <EchoBinary> Bajoran: try the badblocks command
[05:08] <Bajoran> badblocks gives me a spam about a bunch of block writing and test patterns
[05:08] <verb3k> underwatercow: :no problem :)
[05:08] <EchoBinary> try a knoppix bootup - even, and run badblocks
[05:08] <glacial|gone> Question: I'm looking for a roadmap of ubuntu development; I'd like to see what sorts of features are planned for the next release cycle.  Any idea where to look?
[05:08] <JJJetPlane> The drivers are recognized (had to copy em from my XP partition) and loaded up into ndiswrapper...the usb light is blinking so I know its communicating atleast
[05:08] <fotoflo_> how do i turn hardware accelleration on for my shtty on-board video card?
[05:08] <EchoBinary> yes well..
[05:08] <jmg> z9999: Try the Feisty livecd
[05:08] <JJJetPlane> but I can't get it to do WPA :\
[05:08] <EchoBinary> you can turn off verbosity
[05:08] <Bajoran> I do
[05:08] <EchoBinary> beyond that - dont shoot the messenger
[05:09] <jmg> z9999: it wont require a reinstall and you can easily test if it fixes the problem
[05:09] <Bajoran> badblocks, and it gives me a list of commands
[05:09] <Taladan> underwatercow: You also probably want to invest some time later on in learning your way around the commandline a bit...it's very useful to know basic troubleshooting tasks when something like this occurs
[05:09] <EchoBinary> just try #badblocks /dev/[blockdevice] 
[05:09] <comicinker> please help: anjute is missing gtk/gtk.h. But libgtk*-dev are installed. what shall I do
[05:09] <EchoBinary> unmount it first
[05:09] <EchoBinary> i usually use my knoppix cd
[05:09] <UnluckyMike> JJJetPlane: there is a WPA ndiswrapper section in the forum
[05:09] <jamis_lappy> god I wish ubuntu would just work...
[05:10] <underwatercow> Taladan: I'm trying to learn such things... I'm relatively new to linux. I know basic navigation in the terminal but not the nitty gritty
[05:10] <underwatercow> Taladan: it gives me an error
[05:10] <Taladan> What error?
[05:10] <lgc> loco_aullador, ests all?
[05:10] <ikonone> is there a way to revert EVERYTHING to a default installation for my system?
[05:10] <ivanhoe> how can I change my ip for dhcp in ubuntu_
[05:10] <Pelo> !es | lgc
[05:10] <underwatercow> Taladan: Fatal server error: Server is already active for display 0, if no longer running, remove file, etc...
[05:10] <agentnewb> jamis_lappy: I wish that godly awesome and uber kool restricted files program didn't have assholes working with outdated drivers screwing my xorg files up
[05:10] <loco_aullador> lgc,  mas o menos por?
[05:10] <lgc> Pelo de burro?

[05:11] <Pelo> the bot doesn't like me anymore
[05:11] <Taladan> underwatercow: Hrm...and you don't have gnome running?
[05:11] <jamis_lappy> agentnewb, I've burned two different install cd's and neither are booting ok
[05:11] <Bajoran> ok if I want to use parted and I use the resize command on #1 what is start and end?

[05:11] <mjbrooks> !es | lgc
[05:11] <lgc> loco_aullador, es que, curiosamente, cuando hago una pregunta seria, nadie me contesta. Pero cuando me salgo de la lnea, siempre hay algn cabrn que brinca, aunque no sea su asunto.
[05:11] <agentnewb> jamis_lappy: burned them with what application? and what os?
[05:11] <idefixx> ivanhoe: you cant.. you can only configure the ip you get at the dhcp server, most likely your router
[05:11] <jamis_lappy> they both have some error on them...
[05:11] <Pelo> jamis_lappy,  try the alternate install cd, it's text based
[05:11] <jamis_lappy> burned with os x
[05:11] <underwatercow> Taladan: I just ran xinit
[05:12] <jamis_lappy> Pelo, I'm dling that now
[05:12] <tjabri_> jamis_lappy: what speed did you burn?
[05:12] <vandit2k7> Hi guys could I get some help with my ATI radeon card?

[05:12] <loco_aullador> lgc,  like said Pelo  #ubuntu-es
[05:12] <underwatercow> Taladan: I ran gnome-panel earlier though

[05:12] <Taladan> underwatercow: hrm...I'm not sure man...and I'm getting called afk by the wife :/  Maybe someone else can help you with it?
, if I wanted to use parted to resize, I can do "resize 1 <start> <end> but what is start and end, the size in bytes ?
[05:12] <trancozz> some very from Chile?
[05:12] <Pelo> jamis_lappy,  just checking , you are not just copying the iso to the cd are you ? you need to "burn an image" it's not quite the same
[05:12] <lgc> mjbrooks, loco_aullador , Pelo, you should also care about my technical questions
[05:12] <tjabri_> jamis_lappy: did you check the md5 or sha1 hash to ensure it matched your iso?
[05:12] <underwatercow> Taladan: thanks anyway man
[05:13] <ikonone> is there a way to revert EVERYTHING to a default installation for my system?
[05:13] <Pelo> lgc,  I didn't see your technical question I am sorry
[05:13] <z9999> Could someone tell me how to remove the alsa pkg that I just installed manually? and get everything back to original?
[05:13] <Taladan> *nods*  Try restarting the system...that should at least let you start from a fresh slate with the new driver.
[05:13] <trancozz> CHILE?
[05:13] <lgc> Pelo, here it is again...
[05:13] <agentnewb> ikonone: yeah put the cd back in and install
[05:13] <lgc> What's the name of the file APT reads in order to keep track of the installed packages?
[05:13] <deep> Anyone know an IDE that can edit files over FTP?
[05:13] <Pelo> lgc,  I do not know
[05:13] <idefixx> ivanhoe: if you want everything back to normal you'll have to reinstall.. format the partition at reinstall and there you go
[05:13] <ikonone> agentnewb my cdrom is broken.
[05:13] <loco_aullador> lgc,  if nobody answers you pe patient here theres a lot of people requesting help
[05:14] <demonspork> how do I play DVDs on Ubuntu?
[05:14] <ivanhoe> well
[05:14] <loco_aullador> *be patient
[05:14] <ivanhoe> its hard
[05:14] <agentnewb> z9999: open synaptic and remove alsa then go to the source you configured of alsa as root and do make uninstall then select alsa for reinstall under synaptic
[05:14] <Pelo> !dvd > demonspork   check your pm window for instructions
[05:14] <wastrel> lgc:  there's usually a FILES section near the bottom of a man page.
[05:14] <ivanhoe> i only want dowload from rapidshare
[05:14] <jmg> z9999: you can just boot it on the livecd and validate whether the bug exists in it. it will help the developers fix it in lts.
[05:14] <astronouth7303> dosemu/midi: timidity is up and pmidi can play to it. How do I connect dosemu/midid to also/timidity
[05:14] <agentnewb> z9999: or you could toy around with apt-get which ever I prefer the gui
[05:14] <fotoflo_> im running edgy, is there a way i can update to feisty using apt-get?
[05:14] <rothfuss> vandit2k7: what radeon card / machine?
[05:14] <lgc> loco_aullador, that's exactly the point: if noone answers right away, my question just goes away with the tide.
[05:14] <demonspork> Pelo I didn't get anything, no PM

[05:15] <idefixx> ivanhoe: if i understand you right, u want to change your internet ip because rapidshare blocks you because you downloaded to much right?
[05:15] <Golfnit> what do people think about the IE install on Ubuntu 7.04? - I'm looking at http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_internet_explorer
[05:15] <lgc> mjbrooks, I get no special message with your "|".
[05:15] <vecina> Why is "HALD" messing up when i shut down? I have to reinstall dbus and hal at startup all the time or im doomed to crash
[05:16] <mjbrooks> methinks ubotu needs to be rebooted
[05:16] <gavintlgold> never mind... someone's there now
[05:16] <ivanhoe> yes youre rigth
[05:16] <Pelo> gavintlgold,  try asking in #memcoder I'm sure they are better equiped then us to answer you
[05:16] <NotBajoran> ikonone, is that sudo apt-get install feisty-upgrade or sudo apt-get install dist-upgrade? cause neither work
[05:16] <ivanhoe> yes idefix

[05:16] <NotBajoran> :D
[05:16] <wastrel> Golfnit:  i think it's a generally pointless waste of time.  is there some specific reason you need IE?
[05:16] <ivanhoe> you are right
[05:16] <vecina> what *is* it even
[05:16] <Golfnit> just for banking really
[05:16] <idefixx> ivanhoe: do you use a router to connect to the internet.. also do you know what a router is?

I'd just like to get back to where the microphone didn't work at all as it is still unusable with the...

[05:20] <Borat> Hello, does anyone know how to make a Usplash theme? I am fairly advanced with ubuntu, i just need somone to point me in the right direction.
[05:20] <usser> Golfnit: try ies4linux which is automated script, u have to have wine installed though
[05:20] <ivanhoe> in spanish achanell tell me is probabily the cookies
[05:20] <Golfnit> usser
[05:20] <idefixx> ivanhoe: im not expert on rapid share but thats what i wanted to say.
[05:20] <Pelo> Borat, there is probably some instructiions on the site, search for artwork
[05:21] <usser> Golfnit:
[05:21] <Golfnit> usser: thanks i have seen those scripts, but really kind of worried about installing from a non ubuntu server
[05:21] <danlock2> hmmm, okay, so lets say i am installing server edition, when i do an apt-get install ubuntu-desktop it goes through the install and then hangs once it reboots, any ideas?
[05:21] <usser> Golfnit:http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
[05:21] <idefixx> ivanhoe: did you delete the rs cookies?
[05:21] <ivanhoe> thank you edefixx
[05:21] <ivanhoe> i dont know how can i delete this
[05:21] <usser> Golfnit: its ok for that script nothing harmful in it
[05:21] <jamis_lappy> Pelo, it booted into ubuntu that time... now lets see if it installs (last time it crashed while installing the base system)
[05:21] <EchoBinary> hey anyone... know why gnome is reporting a lower max resolution than xorg.conf is set to?
[05:21] <Golfnit> usser: tx also, I'll start reading.
[05:21] <Pelo> jamis_lappy,  congradulation
[05:22] <PloneDudez> hi...guys...U knoe if there is any command ..to count the number of lines in all the files in a particular folder..
[05:22] <jamis_lappy> Pelo, not done yet :p
[05:22] <danlock2> hmmm, okay, so lets say i am installing server edition, when i do an apt-get install ubuntu-desktop it goes through the install and then hangs once it reboots, any ideas?
[05:22] <diabolix> EchoBinary, you're video driver might not like that resolution, and X doesn't tell gnome about it.
[05:22] <idefixx> ivanhoe: do you use firefox?
[05:22] <wastrel> PloneDudez:  cat folder/* | wc -l
[05:22] <kuma> testing my connection

[05:22] <ivanhoe> yes
[05:22] <dupas> anyone know if running WoW off a mounted ntfs partition might be failing simpily because my linux swap is 400mb?
[05:22] <ivanhoe> and konqueror
[05:22] <wastrel> PloneDudez:  or if you need line counts from individual files  wc -l folder/*
[05:22] <PloneDudez> wastrel:thanks..will try it now
[05:22] <dougsko> dupas: no 400MB of swap is a lot
[05:22] <EchoBinary> Pelo: no typo, autogenerated...  and correct  native resolution on my laptop is 1280x800 - gnomes max res is 1024x768
[05:23] <sanityx> Ah I figured it out.
[05:23] <EchoBinary> diablox: hmm perhaps, how do i check for that?
[05:23] <vecina> Why is my hald getting messed up when i shut down my computer? I have to reinstall dbus sometimes to get automounting back, and if i dont reinstall hal, i get graphical errors
[05:23] <dupas> dougsko, I run WoW in opengl with vbuffer disabled in registry and all that, but it just locks up or whatnot ;;
[05:23] <wastrel> woo wc -l does a line total with the fileglob
[05:23] <wastrel> sweet
[05:23] <dupas> opengl works and rendering on my linux is direct
[05:23] <diabolix> EchoBinary, what video card is it?
[05:23] <danlock2> hmmm, okay, so lets say i am installing server edition, when i do an apt-get install ubuntu-desktop it goes through the install and then hangs once it reboots, any ideas?
[05:23] <idefixx> ivanhoe: in firefox go to: edit->preferences->privacy - there is a button 'show cookies'. you can delete them all OR look for the rs cookies and delete them. there might be more than one!
[05:24] <EchoBinary> diablox: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[05:24] <dougsko> dupas: im not really sure, ive never actually run WoW. all i know is that 400MB of swap should be more than enough for anything
[05:24] <dennis_> Help!  I blew out my groups on my login and lost all my admin privileges
[05:24] <idefixx> ivanhoe: however that all is called in spanish but i guess you can figure it out

[05:25] <cchanc1> How do i set the ROOT password?
[05:25] <dougsko> dennis_: you can boot into single user mode and basically be root to fix stuff. just reboot, stop it at the boot screen, and type, 'boot -s'
[05:25] <dupas> I need to find someone who is familiar enough with wine to awnser a question, is if I can just mount my ntfs drive with read/write priv and run stuff off it with wine normally or will that interfear unessicairly to the point at which games like wow or bf2142 wouldn't run correctly?
[05:25] <wastrel> cchanc1:  don't,  use sudo -i instead
[05:25] <diabolix> EchoBinary, open synaptic, and check out the 6th item down without doing a search.
[05:25] <idefixx> cchanc1: you shouldnt. but 'sudo passwd'
[05:25] <cchanc1> Wastrel, i have to the instructions im looking at tell me too
[05:26] <dougsko> dennis_: itll boot, then youll need to mount your drives with 'mount -a'. after that, you should be able to fix whatever you need to
[05:26] <cchanc1> idefixx, thank you
[05:26] <kazim59> i've a working wvdial script that connects me to internet.. i want to apply those settings on my mobile
[05:26] <idefixx> cchanc1: STOP
[05:26] <diabolix> EchoBinary, i never used it, so i can't be of further help.
[05:26] <wastrel> if the instructions told you to jump off a cliff, would you?
[05:26] <wastrel> :]   </mom>
[05:26] <cchanc1> idefixx, ....
[05:26] <Music_Shuffle> wastrel: no doubt :D
[05:26] <EchoBinary> diablox: ok ill take a look - one sec
[05:26] <dougsko> wastrel: whats the -i do for sudo?
[05:26] <dennis_> dougsko:  when you say at the boot screen, what should I be expecting to see and how do I stop it there?
[05:26] <PurpZeY> Will the LiveCD pickup my wireless card if I want to give it a trial run?
[05:26] <dougsko> wastrel: nm, /me looks at the man page
[05:26] <wastrel> k :] 
[05:27] <idefixx> cchanc1: if you really have to use the root pw for something that ok.. if you just want to log in to the root account use 'sudo -i' like wastrel said.
[05:27] <dougsko> dennis_: i mean at the grub boot loader screen where you get to pick your kernel
[05:27] <stalefist> can someone help me out with installing beryl?
[05:27] <idefixx> cchanc1: just wanted to add that ;)
[05:27] <dougsko> dennis_: after your bios, but before the splash screen
[05:27] <danlock2> purpzey, yes.
[05:27] <PurpZeY> danlock2: thanks
[05:27] <danlock2> hmmm, okay, so lets say i am installing server edition, when i do an apt-get install ubuntu-desktop it goes through the install and then hangs once it reboots, any ideas?
[05:28] <dupas> In wine, can you set your base working env to "/media/windows/c/" and have it work correctly off a mounted ntfs drive?
[05:28] <dennis_> dougsko: ah  Ok thanks.  Can't believe i did such a dumb thing.
[05:28] <s0nix> In VMWare Workstation: What is the difference between "New Virtual Machine" and "New Team"

[05:28] <dougsko> dennis_: it happens to everyone :)
[05:28] <dupas> or somehow use the .wine env but then use the program i'm running as base without running a terminal?
[05:28] <Fylk> Any ideas when we are getting the Pidgin update?

[05:28] <stalefist> if i do apt-get dist-upgrade does it upgrade my ubuntu from edgy to feisty?
[05:29] <dupas> so like, I could use .wine as the env but run wow.exe from "/media/windows/c/program files/world of warcraft/"?
[05:29] <danlock2> hmmm, okay, so lets say i am installing server edition, when i do an apt-get install ubuntu-desktop it goes through the install and then hangs once it reboots, any ideas?
[05:29] <dupas> and make it think that its in C:/program files/world of warcraft/ ?
[05:30] <wastrel> danlock2:  where does it hang
[05:30] <progress0r> im working on a server where there are several dns mx records pointing to it (all the same external ip). Originally all the FQDN and aliases were spread across one line - xx.xx.xx.xx host.domain1.com alias1 host.domain2.com alias2 host.domain3.com alias3. This is not correct is it? Shouldnt these be listed on seperate lines?
[05:30] <rttm> my usb drive disappears after i plug it in. use to work a while back but now its gone ?
[05:30] <danlock2> wastrel, right after the end of the progress bar. the screen goes blank.
[05:30] <Twinkle_RIP> hi, i'm trying to upgrade ubuntu 6.1 to 7.04, but each time i'm getting this messege >> Failed to fetch http://bd.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/source/Sources.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[05:30] <fotoflo_> stalefist, im doing this right now
[05:30] <stalefist> if i do apt-get dist-upgrade does it upgrade my ubuntu from edgy to feisty?
[05:30] <PloneDudez> hi wastrl : wc -l folder/* ..this command prints the lines correctly...but when it encounters a subfolder..it doesnt go inside and print the number of lines in it oso... U know how to do recursively
[05:30] <stalefist> ah
[05:31] <Fylk> Guys, Gaim update coming soon?
[05:31] <wastrel> gaim!
[05:31] <fotoflo_> stalefist,  first you change all the sources in your sources.lit to feisty from edgy, then refresh sources, then dist-upgrade
[05:31] <stalefist> does anyone else get a whining noise on a laptop?
[05:31] <EchoBinary> Flyk: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Pidgin+Beta7+DEB-package?content=57356
[05:31] <fotoflo_> stalefist, thats your fan getting old
[05:31] <stalefist> its a new laptop
[05:31] <EchoBinary> :)
[05:32] <fotoflo_> or hitting something
[05:32] <progress0r> no takers eh?
[05:32] <z0x1c> progress0r, display of DNS MX records is independent of their storage. "host -t mx host.com" is quite legible.
[05:32] <wescotte> I'm running off a liveCD and I want to install kdenlive (to play with) when I sudo apt-get install kdenlive it says it can't install because it has 2 dependencies.. why isn't it installing the dependenices too?
[05:32] <tjabri_> ubuntu is the shiznit, now coming to a Dell near you
[05:32] <EchoBinary> indeed
[05:32] <progress0r> z0x1c: thanks. Im referring to the /etc/hosts file listing.
[05:32] <stalefist> fotoflo_: so if i dont replace edgy with feisty in my sources but i still still do a dist-upgrade will it still stay at 6.10?
[05:33] <fotoflo_> stalefist, it wont do jack
[05:33] <danlock2> wastrel any ideas?
[05:33] <Twinkle_RIP> any one??
[05:33] <craigbass1976> Twinkle_RIP, what?
[05:33] <z0x1c> progress0r, /etc/hosts only does name-to-ip; it doesn't know what an MX record is
[05:33] <Twinkle_RIP> i'm trying to upgrade ubuntu 6.1 to 7.04, but each time i'm getting this messege >> Failed to fetch http://bd.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/source/Sources.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1) <<< this
[05:33] <craigbass1976> Twinkle_RIP, oh, the upgrade?
[05:33] <Twinkle_RIP> yeah
[05:33] <wastrel> danlock2:  sounds like the x server is failing to bring up gdm. if you do ctrl-alt-f1 at the blank screen do you get a terminal?
[05:34] <dennis_> There was a doug something who helped me a little bit ago, are you still on?
[05:34] <danlock2> hmmm, i'll have to try that.
[05:34] <tjabri_> TO UPGRADE: follow these instructions http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading
[05:34] <danlock2> its a school machine.
[05:34] <craigbass1976> I've never done an upgrade in Ubuntu, but it's been my experience in cent and fedora that you're better off with a clean install.
[05:34] <progress0r> z0x1c: correct. My question is: if you have several mx records for different domains and server names and they all point to this box, should the hosts file have all these FQDN and aliases on one line or one line for each?
[05:34] <craigbass1976> Twinkle_RIP, if you've got a seperate /home partition, you can even leave your data alone.
[05:34] <z0x1c> progress0r, the hosts file doesn't have anything to do with MX records - it can be empty as far as MTA's are concerned.
[05:34] <GigaClon> I just upgraded to feisty and now my buttons have trash in them http://filebox.vt.edu/users/miwilso2/trash.png
[05:35] <danlock2> wastrel: its a school machine, i'll try thursday
[05:35] <stalefist> so does anyone know why my laptop might make a small whine noise?
[05:35] <danlock2> wastrel: that should bring up a prompt tho, right?
[05:35] <Twinkle_RIP> nope, don't have one..
[05:35] <progress0r> z0x1c: ah ok. im installing zimbra and its picky. just wondering thanks!
[05:35] <EchoBinary> diablox: that worked perfectly!
[05:35] <EchoBinary> thanks man
[05:35] <Twinkle_RIP> i use windows actually
[05:35] <diabolix> holly "09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0" batman...
[05:35] <diabolix> EchoBinary, no prob.
[05:35] <wastrel> danlock2:  ideally :]    also, you could try getting into the grub menu during boot and using the recovery mode instead of normal boot
[05:35] <fotoflo_> upgrading ubuntu is so much easier, and freer then updating windows.
[05:36] <fotoflo_> wow
[05:36] <rothfuss> hd-dvd?
[05:36] <ste-foy> Hello here
[05:36] <danlock2> wastrel: okay, I'll give it a try, i think we'll end up using free BSD anyways tho... **pukes**
[05:36] <EchoBinary> now the next question is trying to get my stylus to work on the tablet screen  lol
[05:36] <diabolix> what about hd-dvd? i just like that number.
[05:36] <diabolix> freebsd is awsome.
[05:36] <PloneDudez> hi..anyone knoes how to use the "wc" command recursively and print all the lines in a folder...thanks
[05:36] <dennis_> dougsko: I rebooted, at the boot screen, changed the boot to boot -s, typed in my login and password and I'm basically in the same spot.  I must have missed something.
[05:36] <craigbass1976> Twinkle_RIP, you could still have a /home partition.  I can't help you, but thought I'd offer that info.  If you do end up doign a clean install, make a / and /home partiton next time, then just don't format it when something after feisty comes out and you install.
[05:37] <fotoflo_> PloneDudez, man wc
[05:37] <thunder> hi all. just need a bit of help. anyone here know how to compile a kernel module?  I havent a clue.
[05:37] <diabolix> i like having a /usr partition mounted as XFS. it makes things load faster.
[05:37] <danlock2> diabolix, yes, but i like a gui, that works well.
[05:37] <diabolix> freebsd has a gui.
[05:37] <EchoBinary> diablox: does freebsd have xfs support yet?
[05:37] <diabolix> it has many guis.
[05:37] <danlock2> diabolix, not that are easy to install :-(
[05:37] <diabolix> EchoBinary, no.
[05:37] <EchoBinary> freebsd has as many guis as linux can have
[05:37] <craigbass1976> thunder, I just got done compiling apache and php.  If it's anyting like that I can help
[05:37] <usser> PloneDudez: cat /directory/* | wc -l
[05:38] <tjabri_> freebsd is the devil, that's what my momma always said
[05:38] <Twinkle_RIP> hmm
[05:38] <Twinkle_RIP> ok thanx
[05:38] <danlock2> diabolix: what gui should i use for it?
[05:38] <diabolix> PCBSD has an easy gui, it comes with kde.
[05:38] <thunder> craigbass1976, I am not sure.   I just went thru synaptic looking for a dkms module for my webcam, and I can only find a source for it, which says i need kernel source and kernel headers. I am lost
[05:38] <diabolix> PCBSD is the ubuntu of freebsd.
[05:38] <z0x1c> PloneDudez, do you want each file individually or a sum total?
[05:38] <craigbass1976> What port does cups run on, 631?
[05:39] <EchoBinary> general question...  setting up a file server with a huge raid drive 2TB+ hosting mostly files in the 1GB+ range...   any suggestions for cross platform filesystem types that would be performance minded?
[05:39] <thunder> Camera uses SPCA5XX
[05:39] <danlock2> diabolix: okay...  I'll probablly just stick with my terminal... I have to choose an operating system for these bad boys soon.
[05:39] <diabolix> danlock2, who are you picking an os for?
[05:39] <fotoflo_> PloneDudez, looks like you might have to write a shell script
[05:40] <demonspork> I followed the instructions on the web page that ubotu gave me and now I still can't play DVDs
[05:40] <danlock2> diabolix: its a cyber-defense competiton
[05:40] <thunder> craigbass1976, ttbomk, cups is on 631 - at least it was where i came from.
[05:40] <danlock2> as i know the most about linux in the group, i'm sorta in charge
[05:40] <Rimtech> what are my options of syncronizing my windows mobile 5.0 pda with some pim in linux... preferably thunderbird
[05:41] <diabolix> danlock2, most windows users tend to feel most confortable in kde, but i like to freak people out and use fluxbox or openstep.
[05:41] <wescotte> anyone know how to get kdenlive to work w/ 7.04?
[05:41] <mjbrooks> diabolix, lol
[05:41] <danlock2> diabolix.... OS, not GUI.
[05:41] <craigbass1976> thunder, did you get a pm?
[05:42] <mjbrooks> diabolix, enlightenment is good for that too
[05:42] <diabolix> danlock2, oh... i like ubuntu cause its usually easy to set up.
[05:42] <z0x1c> danlock2, what is your objection to FreeBSD? Linux' firewall is arguably more configurable, and FreeBSD has no equivalent to SELinux. good server OS, though.
[05:42] <m1ce> is anyone having trouble with near 100% cpu usage in 7.04, despite no single process taking up too much memory?
[05:42] <thunder> yes craigbass1976 I just replied to it
[05:42] <PloneDudez> sorry my PC hung.... anyone knoes how to use the "WC" command recursively and count the number of lines in a folder and subfolders...
[05:42] <z0x1c> PloneDudez, do you want each file individually or a sum total?
[05:42] <fotoflo_> PloneDudez, looks like you might have to write a shell script
[05:42] <craigbass1976> thunder, oh, I don't see the reply
[05:42] <danlock2> diabolix, i have to have @ least one windows box, and one legacy box, and i have to have FTP, Email, web server, remote programming enviroment and DNS, pick me a good OS for most of the systems.
[05:42] <thunder> Ah. Hold on craigbass1976 I am not registered yet
[05:42] <thunder> I will have to login on my registered nick
[05:42] <danlock2> z0x1C: i'm just not used to a command line
[05:43] <mjbrooks> m1ce, which process?
[05:43] <cchance> Ho do i add myself to the www-data group
[05:43] <cchance> how*
[05:43] <diabolix> danlock2, slackware comes with most of that stuff, and its easy to admin remotely.
[05:43] <craigbass1976> J^son, You there?
[05:43] <PloneDudez> the wc command just counts the number of lines...in all the files...but when it encounters a directory..it doesnt go inside oso
[05:43] <z0x1c> danlock2, oh, FreeBSD can use Gnome or KDE just like any linux distro. you might be SOL for Beryl, but that won't make you safer
[05:43] <craigbass1976> J^son, dude, man, guymandude?
[05:43] <HymnToLife> diabolix, any linux is easy to admin remotely, just install an SSH server...
[05:43] <Rimtech> what are my options of syncronizing my windows mobile 5.0 pda with some pim in linux... preferably thunderbird
[05:43] <diabolix> danlock2, slackware comes with just about every editor under the sun as well.
[05:43] <PloneDudez> i useing this wc -l folder/*
[05:43] <m1ce> no process has any significant cpu percentage, yet the system monitor shows the cpu near 100% at all times
[05:43] <HymnToLife> (same goes with FBSD of course)
[05:44] <usser> PloneDudez: calls for shell script allright
[05:44] <diabolix> HymnToLife, slackware focuses on CLI based administration tools tho.
[05:44] <drivamgr2006> hold on craig i will try under my regd nick
[05:44] <PloneDudez> usser: how do u dat shell script...sorry for my ignorance..
[05:44] <danlock2> diabolix, yeah, i've learned A LOT about FreeBSD in the past few months
[05:44] <z0x1c> PloneDudez, ok, if you want each file - "find /dir -type f -print0 | xargs -0 wc -l"
[05:44] <HymnToLife> diabolix, so does Gentoo, for example
[05:44] <HymnToLife> or FBSD
[05:44] <diabolix> HymnToLife, but slackware ships with all of the tools he needs.
[05:44] <danlock2> diabolix, I just don't like a command line
[05:44] <danlock2> lol
[05:45] <PCGenie> q: how do I check my kernel to make sure that it I have the right one for AMD64 (ubuntu 6.06 LTS)?
[05:45] <wastrel> PloneDudez:  find foldername/ -type f -exec wc -l {} \;
[05:45] <HymnToLife> PCGenie, uname -a
[05:45] <wastrel> PloneDudez:  no total tho
[05:45] <Rimtech> PCGenie: uname -a
[05:45] <PCGenie> thx
[05:45] <HymnToLife> Rimtech, u g0t pwn3d ;)
[05:45] <Rimtech> heh
[05:45] <diabolix> danlock2, slackware comes with kde, but you will have to use the command line for things like turning on ftp, and enabling apache and whatnot.
[05:46] <cchance> How do i gain Access to /var/www/
[05:46] <z0x1c> wastrel / PloneDudez: fwiw, xargs tends to be more efficient than -exec where applicable
[05:46] <Rimtech> what are my options of syncronizing my windows mobile 5.0 pda with some pim in linux... preferably thunderbird?
[05:46] <sanityx> Whats a good tool for creating ISO files?
[05:46] <Rimtech> sanityx: mkisofs
[05:46] <danlock2> diabolix, for windows i can use Server 2003, or XP with no SP or SP1 or SP2, for Linux i can use red hat 9, red hat 8, fedora core 3 thru 6, ubuntu server and desktop 6.10 and a few flavors of CentOS
[05:46] <sanityx> any gui ones?
[05:46] <ste-foy> Hello who can help me for beryl ?
[05:46] <mjbrooks> sanityx, k3b or gnomebaker
[05:46] <wastrel> z0x1c:  but then i don't get to use cryptic {} \;
[05:47] <sanityx> mjbrooks, Gnomebaker can CREATE isos?
[05:47] <diabolix> danlock2, it also comes with xfce, fluxbox, windowmaker, blackbox, and probably five others that i'm forgetting...
[05:47] <Music_Shuffle> ste-foy: might get better luck in #ubuntu-effects
[05:47] <danlock2> okay,
[05:47] <mjbrooks> sanityx, I believe so
[05:47] <danlock2> i need to chose an OS first
[05:47] <danlock2> :-P
[05:47] <diabolix> danlock2, you don't know linux until you do slackware or gentoo.
[05:47] <Rimtech> sanityx: why would you need a gui one? the command line is actually easier... mkisofs -o filename.iso /path/to/files
[05:47] <asc> cchance: use 'sudo chown myusername' to make the folder yours, or use sudo when moving things to or editing things in the folder
[05:47] <sanityx> Rimtech, k ill try it
[05:47] <ferret_0567> How do I add something to the cron daemon so that a command runs at every reboot?
[05:47] <asc> actually 'sudo chown myusername /var/www' I suppose
[05:47] <z0x1c> wastrel, lol. good point.
[05:47] <cchance> asc, jlj told me not to do that and about chewed my neck off when i did
[05:47] <diabolix> danlock2, debian is nice, but it includes too many things that are particular to debian.
[05:48] <diabolix> danlock2, arch is also good.
[05:48] <PloneDudez> z0x1c: thanks ...seems like ur command is doing the trick...
[05:48] <ste-foy> oki Music_Shuffle
[05:48] <danlock2> for UNIX's i have FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD,
[05:48] <PloneDudez> thanks to wastrel oso...
[05:48] <asc> cchance: Probably using sudo is the way to go then, although I'd love to know what's wrong with chowning /var/www
[05:48] <danlock2> then there are a few other things..... like IPcop, monowall, pfsense, bartpe, backtrack and memory tester
[05:48] <HymnToLife> I usually just move the root of my Apache to somewhere in my home dir
[05:49] <asc> Wonder if he'd be okay with a subfolder owned by you
[05:49] <HymnToLife> no need for sudo or chown then :)
[05:49] <diabolix> danlock2, so... what exactly are you looking for?
[05:49] <Rimtech> what are my options of syncronizing my windows mobile 5.0 pda with some pim in linux... preferably thunderbird?
[05:49] <cchance> asc, something about messing up the sudo command in entirety
[05:49] <noelferreira> how to run a sudo command with given password in it?
[05:49] <cchance> asc, then i got to change the apache settings around to have it point to it and i dont need to do that
[05:49] <wastrel> nothing wrong with chowning /var/www, might mess up your apache tho
[05:49] <z0x1c> diabolix, I dunno - gentoo's good for a hobby, but where you see "particular to debian", I see "stable platform"
[05:49] <Marupa> anyone know of a decent circuit builder application?
[05:49] <asc> Funky.  It hasn't caused any problems with sudo for me.
[05:50] <boris55> i always get rid of sudo on my home puter
[05:50] <asc> cchance: Well, you'd just use the address mywebsiteaddress.com/subfolder/file
[05:50] <cchance> ljl, you there?
[05:50] <diabolix> z0x1c, i consider slackware to be more stable than debian. gentoo is good for learning.
[05:51] <cchance> asc, well i could try it since its only being used for my network homepage and for testing
[05:51] <z0x1c> diabolix, interesting. I haven't tried slack since (*cough* 3.5?). I'm a FreeBSD fanatic for servers, though.
[05:51] <Rimtech> z0x1c: gentoo used to be much better... i used to have no problem... now it's next to impossible to get gentoo installed at all... and critical bugs make their way into the tree way too often.
[05:51] <Rimtech> z0x1c: which is why i'm with ubuntu now... and loving it
[05:51] <diabolix> z0x1c, slackware is alot like freebsd.. same init scripts for the most part to.
[05:51] <z0x1c> Rimtech, also interesting feedback. my problem with gentoo is that there is no OS, there
[05:51] <HymnToLife> Rimtech, I just installed a Gentoo a few weeks ago with no problem...
[05:51] <joaco> helo
[05:51] <joaco> whats up
[05:51] <cchance> ASC: "sudo mkdir /var/www/www/" ?
[05:52] <z0x1c> not possible to take a set of scripts or conventions from one gentoo install and expect them to work on another
[05:52] <wastrel> ferret_0567:  if you want things to run at boot you would probably use an init script rather than a cron job
[05:52] <danlock2> diabolix, i have 10 KVM's, I have to have one legacy machine, and at least one windows.  I have to have and FTP server, and Email server, a webserver, a remote programming enviro, and a DNS server.
[05:52] <Rimtech> HymnToLife: using solely the gentoo handbook as an install references?
[05:52] <HymnToLife> Rimtech, yep
[05:52] <asc> cchance: Yeah, then sudo chown /var/www/www to yourself
[05:52] <burnerx> does anyone know of any opensource shopping cart i can use ?
[05:52] <sanityx> Anybody running vmware server on feisty?
[05:52] <z0x1c> Rimtech, agreed - Ubuntu is so-far, so-good here as well.
[05:52] <corevette> hd dvd
[05:52] <madman91> hey guys
[05:52] <diabolix> danlock2, any linux can do all of those.
[05:53] <cchance> asc, ok
[05:53] <danlock2> yeah
[05:53] <joaco> mmmmmmmmmmm {
[05:53] <ArBo_HaCkEr> hello
[05:53] <Rimtech> HymnToLife: you lie. I've tried 6 times and every time the gentoo install comes out borked. maybe it's cuz of my jmicron controller... ubuntu seems to handle it well
[05:53] <danlock2> so just pick my flavor?
[05:53] <diabolix> danlock2, i guess go with what you are comfortable with.
[05:53] <Punkunity> so i just read htis article about Bots, and how they are like armies that infiltrate and take down servers and online communities
[05:53] <z0x1c> diabolix, I'll keep that in mind re: slack. I <3 rc.conf. runlevels and crazy /etc hierarchy seem to get in the way
[05:53] <joaco> hey i have mexican
[05:53] <shapka> hi all ... ;)
[05:53] <anchor> does anyone have any with a logitech usb headset under ubuntu?
[05:53] <Punkunity> i think that is sone awesome stuff, its like online terrorism,. or ectortion
[05:53] <soyporti> hello could anyone guide me in my problem? firefox is not downloading anything.
[05:53] <ArBo_HaCkEr> alguien habla espaol, Hola
[05:54] <cchance> asc, Thank You
[05:54] <HymnToLife> Rimtech, calling others liars when they can do things you cannot do is not a proof of maturity...
[05:54] <soyporti> hola Arbo
[05:54] <soyporti> como estas
[05:54] <ArBo_HaCkEr> bien y tu
[05:54] <danlock2> diabolix, i like ubuntu, and know a lot about freeBSD, for a complete noob, so i think I'll go with Ubuntu Server and FreeBSD, and hope that those systems like to play nice with eachother.
[05:54] <soyporti> con un problema aqui
[05:54] <asc> cchance: Glad to help
[05:54] <danlock2> and one that has PFsense.
[05:54] <diabolix> z0x1c, you may wana check out arch linux as well. its like a binary version of gentoo.
[05:54] <wastrel> hispanohablantes , por favor usen #ubuntu-es
[05:54] <cables> anchor, i plugged mine in and it worked right away
[05:54] <Johnston> ok here is my problem, I can only load my computer with the ubuntu disk. Ubuntu freezes in both normal and rocever mode. How can I go about figuring out what is the problem?
[05:54] <ArBo_HaCkEr> cual
[05:54] <Rimtech> HymnToLife: taking things conversed in IRC so seriously is not a sign of maturity either, I was just kiddin' around jeeze.
[05:54] <soyporti> lo lamento no se mucho de esto aun
[05:54] <kazim59> soyporti: .... more information?
[05:54] <anchor> I've gotten sound to work, but the in-line controls only change the master volume
[05:54] <diabolix> danlock2, they use the same code in alot of cases, so i would hope so.
[05:55] <anchor> yfor the default mixer (built in speakers)
[05:55] <danlock2> diabolix, yeah.  Have you ever played with PfSense?
[05:55] <diabolix> z0x1c, a binary version of gentoo with rc.conf
[05:55] <diabolix> danlock2, nope.
[05:55] <madman91> guys.. why does aptitude remove some packages automatically  because it says they are not being used?
[05:55] <HymnToLife> Rimtech, an insult is an insult, IRC or not
[05:55] <danlock2> diabloix, its a firewall on top of a BSD>
[05:56] <ArBo_HaCkEr> aja pero q problema tienes
[05:56] <z0x1c> diabolix, ah. I'll keep that in mind as well.
[05:56] <Rimtech> So nobody here has a PocketPC with WM5?
[05:56] <ArBo_HaCkEr> yo tambien soy medio nuevo en linux
[05:56] <HymnToLife> madman91, because they are no longer being used ?

[05:56] <Danrarbcee> 09 F9 anyone?
[05:56] <arrenlex> madman91: To keep your system clean. If you install application foobar, and it installs libfoobar as a dependency. Then you remove foobar, but the libfoobar package is still on your system, being useless.
[05:56] <madman91> HymnToLife: how does aptitude decide that?
[05:56] <soyporti> ArBo mi firefox no descarga
[05:56] <anchor> ha, is digg still being overrun?
[05:57] <Danrarbcee> yes
[05:57] <lpanebr> hello ubuntus
[05:57] <madman91> arrenlex: no.. not like that.. i mean sometimes aptitude just removes some apps for no reason

[05:57] <arrenlex> madman91: Those useless packages which were installed as dependencies for a package which is now removed are cleaned by aptitude.
[05:57] <cables> madman91, because it knows which packages need what
[05:57] <madman91> arrenlex: it says "not being used" even though i didnt remove any

[05:59] <Rimtech> what is this zero nine eff nine stuff? i don't get it...
[05:59] <marko86> HI
[05:59] <arrenlex> anchor: Several... the easy way is like this in /etc/asound.conf where "headset" is the name of the card as indicated by cat /proc/asound/cards: http://arrenlex.ls.la/asound.conf.usbheadsetbak
[05:59] <bruenig> Rimtech, don't worry about it
[06:00] <ArBo_HaCkEr> it's ok
[06:00] <marko86> SOME BODY SPEAK SPANISH
[06:00] <Rimtech> bruenig: I desperately want to understand.
[06:00] <arrenlex> anchor: The harder way deals with assigning indices in modprobe.d. Use it if the method above messes up dmix, aoss, etc.
[06:00] <ArBo_HaCkEr> yes, i do
[06:00] <bruenig> Rimtech, it is the decrypting code for HD-DVD
[06:00] <anchor> k, i'll give it a shot
[06:00] <mjbrooks> !es > marko86
[06:00] <noelferreira> how can i make a scripr that runs to applications in two diferent consoles and with a given password?
[06:00] <marko86> HOLA
[06:01] <marko86> ALGUIEN HABLA ESPAOL?
[06:01] <Rimtech> bruenig: all hd-dvd's?
[06:01] <bruenig> noelferreira, a script is not going to be able to put its own password in, you are better off running it as root
[06:01] <bruenig> Rimtech, of those produced currently
[06:01] <arrenlex> Rimtech: Yes, all current HDDVDs. You should take this to #tapthru or #ubuntu-offtopic.
[06:01] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  I just downloaded xchat 2.6.8 for ubuntu, and it says it needs the package libdbus-1-2.  Feisty has 1-3 installed.  Is there a way I can use it?
[06:01] <ArBo_HaCkEr> no, you can't speak spanish at this channel
[06:01] <wastrel> no, no hablo espenol, nadie hablan espanol.  use #ubuntu-es para hablar espanol
[06:02] <bruenig> showoff
[06:02] <noelferreira> bruenig: i want an icon in my desktop that performs that operation. what should i do?
[06:02] <Rimtech> On to a different topic... How can I sync my pda(dell axim x51v, windows mobile 5.0) with thunderbird under ubuntu?
[06:02] <bruenig> noelferreira, for security reasons such a thing can't be done, you can run the script as root perhaps, you would need to add an exception to /etc/sudoers though to allow you to execute it without having to put your password in
[06:03] <wastrel> you could call gksudo in the script
[06:03] <bruenig> true
[06:03] <noelferreira> and if theres no pass bruenig how can i make an aplication icon open two consoles?
[06:03] <bruenig> noelferreira, what do you mean open two consoles?
[06:03] <arrenlex> noelferreira: xterm & ; xterm &
[06:04] <lee_> Has anyone installed U7.04 64bit over an i386 installation?
[06:04] <bruenig> is that what he is talking about?

[06:04] <noelferreira> ah that's it arrenlex
[06:04] <vbabiy> is there any way to not have gnome put all your network mounts on your desktop
[06:04] <Johnston> can someone help me fix an unbootable system?
[06:04] <arrenlex> !rescue | Johnston
[06:05] <ubotu> Johnston: To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system"
[06:05] <noelferreira> and there's no command arrenlex such as for example sudo mms --paswors="dfasffa"?
[06:05] <cables> vbabiy, hit alt-f2 and type gconf-editor
[06:05] <EchoBinary> anyone know if there is an ubuntu equivelant to OneNote? :)
[06:05] <Johnston> where do you get an atlenate cd from the ubuntu website?
[06:05] <arrenlex> noelferreira: I highly advise you not to embed a password plaintext in a script like that. What are you trying to do?
[06:05] <craigbass1976> Johnston, what's your message, or it just doesn't boot and you see nothing?
[06:05] <anchor> that did the trick arrenlex, thanks.
[06:05] <vbabiy> cables: ok
[06:05] <Rimtech> Thank you all for your very generous comments and solutions to my very unique question... you have made my day so much easier and yada yada
[06:06] <Foon> I have a question, I use no-ip.com to get a host name, but the IP that points to that is my router, how would I go about, say, giving specific computers behind the router, hostnames that resolve to comp1.myhost.no-ip.com?
[06:06] <Madpilot> Johnston, same place you downloaded the regular ISO
[06:06] <Johnston> it freezes with no message
[06:06] <marko86> hi
[06:06] <cables> vbabiy, go to apps/nautilus/desktop and uncheck volumes_visible
[06:06] <noelferreira> make an icon running two diferent aplications in two diferente consoles without the need of writing the password of su arrenlex
[06:06] <kruncher> I need some help getting my refresh rate up higher on my monitor
[06:06] <idefixx> Foon: you cant do that
[06:06] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  I just downloaded xchat 2.6.8 for ubuntu, and it says it needs the package libdbus-1-2.  Feisty has 1-3 installed.  Is there a way I can use it?
[06:06] <arrenlex> noelferreira: These are applications that require root access?
[06:06] <vbabiy> thanks cables;
[06:06] <craigbass1976> Madpilot, what does that cd do that you can't do with something like knoppix or dsl?  DOes it have some sort of built in troubleshooter?
[06:07] <Foon> idefixx: ? how come?
[06:07] <wastrel> vbabiy:  in gconf-editor  apps > nautilus > desktop  uncheck "volumes_visible"
[06:07] <kruncher> I can get it to (and past) 1280x1024 at 75 (or 85hz) but ubuntu will only let me go to 56hz
[06:07] <wastrel> bah
[06:07] <noelferreira> yes arrenlex. one of them
[06:07] <vbabiy> thanks guys
[06:07] <Rimtech> Jason8: why don't you just type "sudo apt-get install xchat"?
[06:07] <Madpilot> craigbass1976, it's got the older-style installer, which is more complex than the desktop installer
[06:07] <arrenlex> noelferreira: Add that particular command to the sudoers list without a password, and then use sudo to invoke it without having to type a password.
[06:07] <|Jason8|> Rimtech: because that gets xchat-gnome, and that is the most horrible thing ever.
[06:08] <Foon> idefixx: how come I can't do that?
[06:08] <idefixx> Foon: its just not possible tcp/ip knows nothing about hostnames and you cant assign different inet ips to computers behind the router.
[06:08] <Johnston> all the site is showing is desktop and regualr no alternat install
[06:08] <danlock2> so ubuntu server 6.10 would be a good *nix to use for a FTP, email, web server, remote programming enviroment, and DNS?
[06:08] <axl000> how can i change the contextual menu (that when i right click on desktop) sorry for my bad enlgish
[06:08] <Johnston> nm
[06:08] <wastrel> Foon:  because of the way DNS works and NAT
[06:08] <craigbass1976> |Jason8|, could you get the correct libdbus.deb package and install that?
[06:08] <z9999> I'm in deep now, the system will no longer boot. Can someone please help?
[06:08] <Johnston> found it
[06:09] <wastrel> Foon:  does noip.com allow you to set up subdomains like that?
[06:09] <Foon> er, ah, so they'd all have to be in the DMZ and pointed to by individual DNS entries in the nameserver?
[06:09] <Rimtech> Jason8: actually if you go to the add/remove programs app in feisty there are two different entries... one is for xchat on it's own and another is for xchat-gnome
[06:09] <danlock2> so ubuntu server 6.10 would be a good *nix to use for a FTP, email, web server, remote programming enviroment, and DNS?
[06:09] <Alonea> anyone ever installed ie6 on wine? I can't seem to get it to install.
[06:09] <Foon> wastrel: not that I know of, not with a free account at any rate
[06:09] <z0x1c> danlock2, I'd go FreeBSD for OS, ProFTPD for ftp, qmail for e-mail. and of course Apache/BIND for HTTP/DNS.
[06:09] <arrenlex> Alonea: You can't install ie6 on plain wine anymore because of how they implemented gecko. Use the ies4linux script.
[06:10] <Foon> but I figured that whatever was contained within the *.myhost bit was under my control
[06:10] <usser> Alonea: do u use ies4linux?
[06:10] <wastrel> Foon:  so that's another reason you can't do it :] 
[06:10] <arrenlex> Alonea: http://www.tatanka.com.br/
[06:10] <nicolas> Hi. I would like to customize my display to be able to use a  8-bit PseudoColor display
[06:10] <danlock2> z0x1C: thanks man.  I have my competition on 18th, so i need to start getting my boxes set up, and i just couldn't deice.
[06:10] <danlock2> decide*
[06:10] <re2n> hai.........
[06:10] <idefixx> Foon: it is.. that doesnt change the fact that your router doesnt care :)
[06:10] <wastrel> Foon:  what you can do is set up port forwarding and NAT/masquerading.
[06:10] <Foon> NAT masquerading?
[06:10] <brussel_> Which deity could handle putting the G15 keyboard into the repository? See http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2576049&postcount=314 for more info...
[06:10] <thesoldier> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[06:11] <Foon> idefixx: ah
[06:11] <z0x1c> danlock2, maybe swap in slackware for FreeBSD if you have to use a Linux distro, and it's as good as BSD-like as diabolix says
[06:11] <Rimtech> Foon: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/IP-Masquerade-HOWTO/
[06:11] <richaoj> what up room
[06:11] <AngryElf> how do I figure out what to put for DISPLAY=?  inorder to send stuff to different screens?.
[06:11] <danlock2> z0x1C: naw, i just have to have @ least one windows, and one legacy.
[06:11] <richaoj> has anyone in here had success using the 915resolution package
[06:11] <idefixx> Foon: what wastrel say is correct though you can forward different port on your router to different ips in your lan.
[06:12] <danlock2> z0x1C: so i'm thinking windows server 2003 for my windows / legacy?
[06:12] <Alonea> usser: yeah, I do, but I don't need to use IE6, I just need it installed so I can try installing other programs that wont install without it.
[06:12] <Foon> Rimtech: thanks much :)
[06:12] <noelferreira> how can i run two different applications in two different consoles with one command?
[06:12] <Foon> idefixx: yeah, I've been able to make my tux box's port 22 and 80 public thusfar

[06:13] <usser> Alonea: instead of ie
[06:13] <lee_> hi all
[06:13] <Foon> but I'd like to be able to assign the tux box its own internet hostname

[06:13] <idefixx> Foon: if you've got just one ip assigned by your provider that is simply not possible.

[06:14] <danlock2> kevinrose.... quit spamming.
[06:14] <HymnToLife> Foon, you can't do that (with No-IP's $0 service, at least)
[06:14] <wastrel> Foon:  since they are the authority for that domain they'd have to set up a subdomain for you
[06:14] <arrenlex> noelferreira: xterm -e "command 1" & xterm -e "command 2" &
[06:14] <dheala> hi
[06:14] <Foon> idefixx: okay, good simple answer :)
[06:14] <dheala> hiiiiiiiiii
[06:14] <Foon> wastrel: ahhhhh I see
[06:14] <Alonea> usser: I mean installing something like MSN messenger or Musicmatch in wine.
[06:15] <Foon> so if I want subdomains that I can manage, I need to pay for my own, eh?
[06:15] <arrenlex> Alonea: MSN won't run well in Wine. Why would you want to, anyway? Use gaim.
[06:15] <arrenlex> Alonea: Dunno what musicmatch is.
[06:15] <Foon> (domain)
[06:15] <richaoj> why would you want musicmatch.  that is the shittiest software known to man
[06:15] <Rimtech> Alonea,userr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SeamlessVirtualization
[06:15] <idefixx> HymnToLife: how can he do that even if the dns provider would allow him to configure custom cnames? all his 'servers' are behind a simple router?

[06:16] <Foon> heheh
[06:16] <Foon> know of any? ;D
[06:16] <wastrel> madman91:  system > preferences > gl desktop
[06:16] <wastrel> madman91:  assuming you have gnome-compiz-manager installed
[06:17] <madman91> wastrel: ahh..
[06:17] <noelferreira> didn't work arranlex
[06:17] <Alonea> arrenlex: musicmatch is a music player, but the nice thing is the On Demand service. Can listen to any song in their database at CD quality.
[06:17] <vbabiy> hey guys any idea when i first boot ubuntu it takes like 3min before the yellow bar starts to move, the live cd did not do this
[06:17] <arrenlex> noelferreira: Define "doesn't work"?
[06:17] <madman91> wastrel: thank you!!
[06:18] <axl000> wastrel:  how can i change the contextual menu (that when i right click on desktop) sorry for my bad english
[06:18] <PetFish> lo - Anyone know how I can use the :COOKIE: string in a Ktorrent RSS feed?
[06:18] <vbabiy> could this be a driver thing?
[06:18] <underwatercow> I need to kill my X server so I can install new video drivers, but it keeps restarting. How can I stop it from doing this?
[06:19] <jnguy> Hi. Anyone know how to determine which process is using a module?
[06:19] <jnguy> underwatercow: stop gdm
[06:19] <jnguy> /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[06:19] <noelferreira> arrenlex: i need a desktop icon
[06:19] <jnguy> or kdm
[06:19] <wastrel> axl000:  i don't know
[06:19] <jnguy> your display manager.
[06:19] <noelferreira> it says can't create child process arrenlex
[06:19] <underwatercow> jnguy: Can I kill it like a normal process?
[06:19] <jnguy> errr. better idea to use init.d
[06:19] <noelferreira> arrenlex: xterm -e sudo vdr --lib=/usr/lib/vdr --config=/etc/vdr --video=/var/spool/video --epgfile=/var/spool/epg -Psc -P'softdevice -vo xv:' & xterm -e /usr/sbin/gboxx86 &
[06:19] <asc> underwatercow: yes, but it will restart
[06:20] <axl000> mmm
[06:20] <underwatercow> what does init.d do?
[06:20] <jnguy> it manages those services.
[06:20] <asc> underwaercow: it contains things that can be started and stopped, such as daemons and display managers
[06:20] <wastrel> init.d  is part of the init system used for managing startup and shutdown
[06:20] <underwatercow> ah... so how do I kill X and make it stay dead until I restart or start it again manually?
[06:21] <asc> underwatercow: still 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop'
[06:21] <jnguy> /etc/init.d/{g,k}dm stop
[06:21] <z9999> Anyone able to get Ubuntu to boot for me?
[06:21] <someone> :o
[06:21] <underwatercow> asc: thanks... and to start it again? /etc/init.d/gdm start? lol
[06:21] <diabolix> z9999, does you're pc say no OS?
[06:22] <asc> underwatercow: Yep
[06:22] <jnguy> underwatercow: yes
[06:22] <underwatercow> asc, jnguy: thanks
[06:22] <jnguy> any takers on the module question?
[06:22] <Wamphyri> what would cause ubuntu's internet connection to be spotty?
[06:22] <noelferreira> arrenlex: did you understand what i need?
[06:23] <rttm> is there a fix for the disappearing usb drive problem ?
[06:23] <diabolix> jnguy, processes don't use modules, the only thing they can do is interface with the kernel and use them indirectly.
[06:23] <nicolas__> Hi
[06:23] <jnguy> diabolix: Ah. Makes more sense.
[06:23] <z9999> diabolix: No, it says my session only lasted 10 seconds, and this is after removing an alsa manual install which had caused problems.
[06:24] <jnguy> basically sound isn't working, and fuser/lsof on /dev/dsp returns nothing.
[06:24] <diabolix> jnguy, has it ever worked?
[06:24] <jnguy> yep.
[06:24] <jnguy> something is blocking it.
[06:24] <Taladan> jnguy lsmod|grep snd
[06:24] <gkelly> HELP. I can't get audio in Gnome, but I can cat a file to /dev/sound1 and get noise.
[06:24] <nicolas__> Hi...I would like to configure my ubuntu7 to be able to use a 8-bit pseudocolor display...?
[06:25] <jnguy> its there...
[06:25] <Taladan> Also - I noticed the other day KDE had locked up my sound somehow...logging out and restarting the x server brought it right back up...don't know how or why
[06:25] <|Jason8|> Is anyone in here using X-Chat (Not Xchat-gnome)?
[06:25] <z9999> It's not my system and I'm not familiar with Linux or how to login with one of the failsafe sessions as it recommends, or what to do once I were able to.
[06:25] <diabolix> jnguy, try running esd from a term.
[06:25] <Taladan> Jasoon8 - yes
[06:25] <crimsun> jnguy: what's the issue? (I just reattached)
[06:26] <Taladan> crimsun: something's blocking his audio
[06:26] <|Jason8|> Taladan: on 7.04?  I can't get mine to install and it's not in synaptic
[06:26] <jnguy> diabolix: That helped a lot actually.
[06:26] <crimsun> Taladan: he needs: lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/mixer* /dev/snd/*
[06:26] <jnguy> I didn't know there was a /dev/snd
[06:26] <wastrel> |Jason8|:  it's in universe,  have you enabled universe?
[06:26] <jnguy> I was looking /dev/sound...
[06:26] <Taladan> |Jason8|: yeah, but I already had it installed and did an upgrade...might wanna try to go through universe.
[06:26] <gkelly> Hey I'm having sound problems too. Is this a common issue?
[06:26] <jnguy> at some point it was /dev/sound right?
[06:27] <crimsun> jnguy: no, that's what other distros use.
[06:27] <jnguy> ohhh.
[06:27] <crimsun> gkelly: depends what your "sound problem" is.
[06:27] <noelferreira> how can i run two different applications in two different consoles with one command?
[06:27] <Taladan> crimson lsof?  Hmm...don't think I've ever used that one.
[06:27] <gkelly> crimsun : I can cat to /dev/audio1 and get noise, but no sound works in Gnome
[06:27] <PCGenie> does 6.06 have kernel 2.6?
[06:27] <Taladan> but that makes sense
[06:27] <jbsn> i'm trying to apt-get install ncurses in 7.04 server, says it has no installation candidate, is ncurses called something else in Ubuntu ?
[06:27] <crimsun> PCGenie: all Ubuntu releases have a 2.6 kernel.
[06:27] <jnguy> wow. weird.
[06:27] <diabolix> Taladan, list open files.
[06:28] <jnguy> xpdf is using sound.
[06:28] <Taladan> yeah
[06:28] <diabolix> jnguy, wtf?
[06:28] <jnguy> yeah, idk.
[06:28] <PCGenie> crimsun, I have been looking for that. i want to upgrade my kernel; where is it?
[06:28] <jnguy> [root@mrjack team2_prototype] # fuser /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p

[06:28] <jnguy> haha.
[06:28] <crimsun> PCGenie: where is what?
[06:28] <ivanhoe> happiness
[06:28] <ivanhoe> dell acept ubuntu
[06:28] <Madpilot> jnguy, pastebin next time, thanks
[06:28] <jnguy> sorry.
[06:28] <ivanhoe> http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2007/05/01/13147.aspx
[06:28] <PCGenie> crimsun, kernel 2.6 to upgrade my 2.4?
[06:28] <crimsun> gkelly: Is ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav'' audible?
[06:29] <PCGenie> crimsun,  a link or update url?
[06:29] <crimsun> PCGenie: are you using a Ubuntu release?
[06:29] <wastrel> ncurses eh
[06:29] <jnguy> xmms doesn't automatically use dmix?
[06:29] <Taladan> xpdf...?  Using the sound device?
[06:29] <Taladan> how utterly weird.
[06:29] <PCGenie> crimsun, dapper 6.06 LTX
[06:29] <noelferreira> how can i run two different applications in two different consoles with one command?
[06:29] <PCGenie> LTS meant
[06:29] <crimsun> jnguy: xmms has nothing to do with dmix.  Dmix is an alsa-lib plugin.  XMMS is an application that can use the ALSA api.
[06:29] <Taladan> noelferreira: probably write a script to do it.
[06:29] <gkelly> crimsun : I just tried the asoundconf tool from http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Sound and now it's working. Seems that it was using my onboard sound by default, which I disabled in the BIOS
[06:29] <Rei-chan> PCGenie: Do you want to go off a LTS system to a new version?
[06:29] <Wamphyri> what would cause ubuntu's internet connection to be spotty?
[06:29] <crimsun> gkelly: good.
[06:29] <PCGenie> Rei-chan, no I really just got this one stable
[06:29] <javier> hi
[06:30] <harris2004> i need some help
[06:30] <jnguy> hm. I thought apps had to be configured to use dmix as the mixer
[06:30] <PCGenie> Rei-chan, I would just like a kernel upgrade
[06:30] <wastrel> jbsn:  apt-cache search ncurses | grep
[06:30] <noelferreira> Taladan: can you give me an example?
[06:30] <crimsun> PCGenie: if you're using 6.06 LTS, you're already using 2.6.15 by default.
[06:30] <wastrel> er,
[06:30] <wastrel> jbsn:  apt-cache search ncurses | grep ^ncurses
[06:30] <diabolix> jnguy, most ubuntu apps use esd iirc.
[06:30] <crimsun> PCGenie: is there any particular reason you want [or need]  an updated kernel?
[06:30] <harris2004> i installed beryl...but it only works fine witht he first desktop and lags with the other ones..is there a fix???
[06:30] <javier> i want to see dvd on ubuntu
[06:31] <megafauna> CONGRATS on the DELL MARRIAGE
[06:31] <crimsun> jnguy: no.  Apps are completely separate from dmix (as stated above).
[06:31] <PCGenie> crimsun, oic, you are right? i am confused because my grub says that I am loading a k7 version vs. a k8
[06:31] <kruncher> Why does my monitor display at the correct refresh rate when running from the live cd but not when running from the installed ubuntu?
[06:31] <harris2004> whow...there are more ppl asking questions then helping
[06:31] <crimsun> harris2004: that's the norm.
[06:31] <Taladan> noelferreira: I don't know exactly what you're trying to do, but assuming you're opening a terminal in your gui like konsole or terminal, you could do something along the lines of have a script that opens the terminal and runs one program, then triggers another portion of the script that opens another terminal and runs the other program
[06:32] <gkelly> Thanks!
[06:32] <jnguy> hm. Interesting. Haven't really kept up with linux sound. I actually just recently upgraded to alsa. I was using OSS for the longest time.
[06:33] <odat> anyone know how to get a bttv driver to load on startup
[06:33] <noelferreira> Taladan: i need a desktop icon that makes that
[06:33] <tgill430> playing with ryhtmbox im hearing things in my mp's3s i never herd before
[06:33] <megafauna> tgill430 what do u mean?
[06:33] <lethu> javier, for dvd --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=413626
[06:33] <tgill430> got a saa7134 odat?
[06:33] <tgill430> yeah myabe it's the placebo effect
[06:33] <jnguy> lol. I'm not a regular here, but do lots of people complain about sound?
[06:33] <lethu> javier, also try ogle as a dvd player
[06:33] <odat> tgill430, no just an old but support card
[06:34] <tgill430> but my mp3's are sounding better in linuxx
[06:34] <megafauna> jnguy: not often that i've seen
[06:34] <Taladan> noelferreira: so create a link on your desktop to the script
[06:34] <PCGenie> Rei-chan, was you question about a new version based on upgrading to 6.10?
[06:34] <odat> tgill430, i remember putting a text file somewhere in my system with some bttv commands but not sure where
[06:34] <Nubbie> Totem plays dvds fine if you bother to set up libdvdcss2
[06:34] <tgill430> wanybody got an idea
[06:35] <tgill430> ? init/d?
[06:35] <Nubbie> tgill430: you're complaining... because they sound better?
[06:35] <tgill430> no way , im not complaining
[06:35] <Nubbie> tgill430: run over to #alsa and thank them
[06:35] <tgill430> I was just noticing
[06:35] <odat> ?
[06:35] <Taladan> I can't for the life of me figure out why you would want to execute two different commands in two seperate terminal windows at the same time though.
[06:35] <harris2004> so anyone has any idea...why my beryl lags so much on the 2nd and all other desktops???
[06:36] <megafauna> tgill430: they'll sound EVEN BETTER if u use Amarok
[06:36] <lethu> Nowak, actually Totem isn't willing to play dvd's for me
[06:36] <megafauna> harris2004: /join #ubuntu-effects
[06:36] <Nubbie> megafauna: thats bs, don't spread it.
[06:37] <Nubbie> amarok also uses QT which IMO looks very ugly in gnome.
[06:37] <megafauna> Nubbie: it was kinda tongue in cheek, I'm just a fan of the software I guess
[06:37] <Taladan> I dig the amarok
[06:38] <Nubbie> dig the banshee.
[06:38] <megafauna> Nubbie: it has tagging and other neat tagging features. it is the iTunes I always wanted but could never find, you know, like natalie portman w/ wife skills?
[06:38] <Taladan> I don't use gnome ;)
[06:38] <Jay2> anybody good with Screem????
[06:38] <chrisULM> hey everybody, i am running edgy and just installed a new graphics card. now when I boot into Ubuntu I get a "BusyBox" prompt. Any ideas as to what I should do?
[06:39] <Nubbie> megafauna: amarok is as far away as itunes as you could get. its more like WIMP.
[06:39] <Nubbie> jay2: the web authoring software? no.
[06:39] <chainlynx> no amarok and itunes share a lot of similarities
[06:39] <idefixx> noelferreira: just create a bash script that executes 'gnome-terminal -x aptitude; gnome-terminal -x aptitude' to have two aptitude windows
[06:39] <PCGenie> crimson, i have an AMD64 and I want to make sure that I have the most uptodate stable kernel
[06:39] <Nubbie> chrisULM: ctrl alt f2, login, run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:39] <Jay2> yes, web authoring software
[06:40] <PCGenie> crimsun,  i have an AMD64 and I want to make sure that I have the most uptodate stable kernel
[06:40] <crimsun> PCGenie: I recommend you use what 6.06 LTS has.
[06:40] <megafauna> Nubbie: it has more features than any other software I"ve tried, like a proper database. I've heard that banshee is really neat to look at, and one of Amarok's competetors has a coverflow feature, but the database pwns all./p
[06:40] <Jay2> when I put a face in the font tag, it never shows up on the web page
[06:40] <noelferreira> idefixx: and how to do it without asking me for the root password?
[06:41] <wastrel> idefixx:  won't that cause locking probs with the cache db?
[06:41] <wastrel> er, package db
[06:41] <Wamphyri> crimsun: i still find the x64 arch very limiting
[06:41] <Taladan> *shrugs*  I don't particularly care what anyone else uses...and telling me to use something else doesn't really change my good opinion of something ;)
[06:41] <PCGenie> crimsun, good enuff
[06:41] <Nubbie> megafauna: banshee uses databases, has a coverflow-like plugin, and a million other functions, only it doesn't look like it was hit with a shovel.
[06:41] <chrisULM> Nubbie, press ctrl alt f2 @ the busybox promt?
[06:42] <wastrel> what was hit with a shovel?
[06:42] <Nubbie> yes, login, then reconfigure xorg.
[06:42] <Nubbie> amarok.
[06:42] <idefixx> noelferreira: well you said nothing about root so far.. but you pretty much cant to that unless you want you pw in plaintext in there or change sudo
[06:42] <wastrel> hrm
[06:42] <megafauna> Nubbie: well I'll check it out again but I remember that Amarok had the best database, BY FAR. also, IT IS THE SHOVEL!
[06:42] <noelferreira> no problem with that idefixx how can i put the passw in it?
[06:43] <idefixx> wastrel: no it works.. just tested it
[06:43] <rttm> help anyone else with usb problems
[06:43] <chainlynx> you can configure amarok with sqllite or postgresql
[06:43] <wims> how do i generate a uuid for an ext3 partition?
[06:43] <wastrel> wims:  apropos uuid
[06:43] <Nubbie> megafauna: i don't see how a database if the deciding factor of a music app anyways. all it does is tell the program where your tunes are.
[06:44] <Nubbie> !anyone | rttm
[06:44] <ubotu> rttm: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:44] <diabolix> bedtime
[06:44] <Gat0rvean> how do you exit a man page at any point to get back to the tty?
[06:44] <z0x1c> Nubbie, yes, but established databases are very efficient. unlike, e.g. rhythmbox. faster startup, faster, more flexible searching.
[06:44] <megafauna> Nubbie: I tag by theme ("city songs", mood, composer era, etc..) Databases do much more than locate files, they cross-index, etc...
[06:45] <rttm> Does anyone know if there is a fix for the disappearing usb drive problem ?
[06:45] <Taladan> Nubbie, megafauna, I think this convo would actuall belong more to #ubuntu-chat?  Unless I miss the purpose of the channel
[06:45] <UnluckyMike> Gat0rvean: hit the Q key
[06:45] <kahrytan> The problem with Amarok deb is it doesn't require Mysql to be installed.
[06:45] <idefixx> noelferreira: mom
[06:45] <chrisULM> Nubbie, ctrl atl f2 does nothing
[06:45] <wastrel> woo what's the disappearing usb drive prob?
[06:45] <Gat0rvean> Unluckymike, thanks
[06:45] <Nubbie> megafauna: banshee has some great smart/regular playlists you can set up.
[06:45] <chrisULM> im still at the promt, i cant login
[06:45] <z9999> Could someone please inform me if there is a chance of getting help on my booting problem, and if so I will wait until help is available.
[06:45] <megafauna> Nubbie: so does Amarok
[06:45] <megafauna> z999 don't ask: just ask
[06:45] <Nubbie> chrisULM: did you see the grub screen?
[06:45] <megafauna> z9999 don't ask: just ask
[06:45] <wastrel> megafauna:  pay attention, he's asked several times
[06:46] <chrisULM> Nubbie, yes
[06:46] <rttm> on feisty been using for a few weeks and now the usb drive will not automount
[06:46] <megafauna> wastrel: sorry
[06:46] <chrisULM> Nubbie, do ctrl alt f2 @ the grub screen?
[06:46] <rttm> out of the blue seems like others are having this problem too..
[06:46] <wastrel> z9999:  it's unpredictable.  you just have to catch the right person with your question :[
[06:46] <Nubbie> megafauna: i'm just saying, banshee is infinitely more ituneslike, and IMO just as good/better than amarok, especially if you're using gnome.
[06:46] <megafauna> z9999: I've had alot of luck posting int he fourms
[06:46] <Nubbie> chrisULM: did grub load?
[06:47] <chrisULM> yes
[06:47] <wastrel> forums are good
[06:47] <Nubbie> chrisULM: and after that you get a busybox?
[06:47] <chrisULM> nubbie, yes
[06:47] <chrisULM> it attempts to boot, then gives me that
[06:47] <Nubbie> chrisULM: did you mess around with your grub settings?
[06:47] <Nubbie> chrisULM: do you still have your installation cd?
[06:47] <chrisULM> Nubbie, no. i just installed a new gfx card. thats all
[06:47] <chrisULM> yes
[06:47] <megafauna> z9999: You will find alot of really technical questions answered there, stuff which may or may not be answereed here.
[06:47] <chrisULM> boot into live cd?
[06:48] <rttm> Wastrel .. gather u have not had this problem
[06:48] <z9999> megafauna: I did so,but was unsure if anyone was capable but busy, or if no one knew how to resolve the problem. I just followed instructions previously given on how to remove a manual install of the latest alsa, and now the system won't reboot except in a terminal screen , and I don't know what to do to resolve the problem.
[06:48] <Nubbie> chrisULM: have you tried booting in safe graphics mode?
[06:48] <chrisULM> Nubbie, recovery mode right?
[06:48] <Nubbie> chrisULM: yeah.
[06:48] <wastrel> rttm:  i don't have any usb drives :] 
[06:48] <chrisULM> let me try
[06:48] <z9999> Nubbie: That fails also.
[06:48] <Nubbie> chrisULM: if you can get in recovery mode, you can reconfigure xorg.
[06:48] <rttm> i see thanks
[06:49] <Nubbie> z9999: what does?
[06:49] <chrisULM> Nubbie, looks like its gonna hang on "USB HID core driver"
[06:49] <Nubbie> chrisULM: thats weird.
[06:49] <idiocrash> CONGRATULATIONS ON THE DELL DEAL, UBUNTU!
[06:50] <chrisULM> the live cd couldnt get me out of this one?
[06:50] <Nubbie> ermmm....
[06:50] <jinxed> wow
[06:50] <Nubbie> does that mean 1000's more people are going to be coming here after being disappointed by dell's customer service?
[06:50] <z9999> Nubbie: I can only get up in Failsafe Terminal, and not being a Linux user I don't know what to do from there.
[06:50] <jinxed> anyone else watching digg get destroyed right now
[06:50] <jinxed> its like watching a revolution live
[06:51] <Nubbie> z9999: i was actually helping chrisULM... what are you trying to do?
[06:51] <Nubbie> digg = lame.
[06:51] <jinxed> digg = under attack right now
[06:51] <Nubbie> crashed ubuntu's website during the 7.04 launch.
[06:51] <pilgrim> Hey all. My window manager is not running for some reason. Don't know what happened and can't close windows...What do I do?
[06:51] <wastrel> digg = offtopic here
[06:51] <jinxed> they used censorship on articles relating to the HDDVD code
[06:51] <z9999> Nubbie: Sorry. I am just trying to get the system to boot normally again.
[06:51] <Nubbie> pilgrim: you're using beryl?
[06:51] <pilgrim> Nubbie: no!
[06:51] <Nubbie> z9999: as opposed to what...
[06:51] <jinxed> and now the community is attacking and every article is related to it
[06:52] <chrisULM> Nubbie, yep booted to Busybox
[06:52] <wastrel> jinxed:  #ubuntu-offtopic 4pls
[06:52] <Nubbie> pilgrim: in terminal, type metacity --replace
[06:52] <idiocrash> Yeah, digg is getting killed. Look at the front page. and the next page. and the next page.
[06:52] <jinxed> wastrel, i would but for some reason it says i'm banned
[06:52] <idiocrash> think digg will go away?
[06:52] <Nubbie> chrisULM: all you did was change your graphics card?
[06:52] <wastrel> i guess you are to offtopic for offtopic
[06:52] <pilgrim> Nubbie: says, unable to open X display
[06:52] <jinxed> nah people like it, it will just take a hit for awhile
[06:52] <chrisULM> Nubbie, that is all
[06:52] <wastrel> eew. s/to/too/
[06:52] <chrisULM> says
[06:52] <voltagex> is it possible to add the livecd user to a new group? I'm customizing the LiveCD
[06:53] <chrisULM> "/bin/sh cant access tty; job control turned off"
[06:53] <jinxed> idiocrash, i have never seen anything like it ever
[06:53] <Nubbie> pilgrim: k, can you log in?
[06:53] <jinxed> idiocrash, every single article and most comments
[06:53] <idiocrash> jinxed: yeah, no internet meme or piece of news has propagated as fast as the hex key.
[06:53] <pilgrim> Nubbie: yeah...logged in with uy
[06:53] <pilgrim> GUI*
[06:54] <pilgrim> pilgrim: right now I'm typing from tty`
[06:54] <pilgrim> tty1*
[06:54] <jinxed> all other articles are being buried
[06:54] <pilgrim> Nubbie: **
[06:54] <Nubbie> pilgrim: did you try running metacity --replace from terminal?
[06:54] <Nubbie> yeah you did...
[06:54] <idefixx> noelferreira: still here? sry rl stuff
[06:54] <Nubbie> sorry.
[06:54] <pilgrim> Nubbie: k :)
[06:54] <idiocrash> jinxed: and! no utter displeasure with a website has been propagated this fast ever. Today is an important day in history, with the hex key issue and the revolt against digg at the same time. what a weird scenario.
[06:54] <Nubbie> i'm too tired for this, sorry guys. i'm going to mess somebody's computer up if i keep on like this.
[06:54] <Nubbie> i'm going to bed,
[06:55] <z9999> Nubbie: Now it comes up saying session only lasted 10 seconds, try logging in with one of the failsafe sessions, and only the terminal failsafe works. The details says "error while loading shared libraries, libasound.so.2"
[06:55] <pilgrim> Nubbie: lol...have  a good sleep
[06:55] <crzyboon> are there any switches to use with wget on windows that allows me to specify proxy and port?
[06:55] <pilgrim> Nubbie: what a noob you are :p
[06:55] <jinxed> yeah it is a big day in history of the web
[06:55] <wastrel> !noob > pilgrim
[06:55] <pilgrim> jinxed: why?
[06:55] <Nubbie> z9999: you have permissions set right on your home directory?
[06:55] <jinxed> do you think it will do anything for bluray
[06:56] <z9999> Nubbie: I know the feeling, thanks anyway.
[06:56] <jinxed> pilgrim, the HD DVD code being blasted everywhere and the huge revolt against digg by its users for censorship
[06:56] <Nubbie> wastrel: of course i'm a newb for trying to help people while tired. don't defend me ;)
[06:56] <pilgrim> jinxed: what happened to the web, what did I miss?
[06:56] <wastrel> i hate that word in general
[06:56] <pilgrim> oh, pffttt
[06:56] <Nubbie> heheheh.
[06:56] <wastrel> i do like nub because it's endaringly ignorant
[06:56] <Nubbie> i'm off.
[06:56] <jinxed> digg is one of the most visited sites on the web
[06:56] <wastrel> endearingly
[06:56] <Nubbie> nubbie = no hands or feet.... not newb.
[06:56] <Music_Shuffle> !offtopic
[06:57] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:57] <Rei-chan> !offtopic
[06:57] <jinxed> pilgrim, take a look at the site
[06:57] <Nubbie> lol.
[06:57] <tonyyarusso> Please take all Digg-related talk to #ubuntu-offtopic, and keep this channel support only.
[06:57] <idiocrash> yeah, and despite the digg revolt, you know its getting more hits than ever
[06:57] <Music_Shuffle> Rei-chan: I win ;)
[06:57] <jinxed> Music_Shuffle, unban me from the room and i will go
[06:57] <Rei-chan> Music_Shuffle: I was playing a flash game. :)
[06:57] <voltagex> yes, because I need help editing the livecd
[06:57] <pilgrim> jinxed: dig?...as soon as I fix my window manger
[06:57] <jinxed> tonyyarusso, unban me and I will
[06:57] <z9999> Anyone else here know how to recover from the error I have?
[06:57] <Rei-chan> jinxed: Your status of being banned there does not change the topic of this channel?
[06:57] <Music_Shuffle> jinxed: Err...I must have given the impression of being ABLE to do that :P
[06:57] <jinxed> Rei-chan, this relates to linux and therefore ubuntu i do not see it as offtopic
[06:58] <Eleaf> hmm digg
[06:58] <wastrel> jinxed:  this is a technical support channel, not a general linux discussion
[06:58] <Rei-chan> jinxed: Does it have to do with Ubuntu support? Doesn't sound like it.
[06:58] <Nubbie> jinxed... digg is not linux or ubuntu.
[06:58] <Nubbie> gotta agree on that.
[06:58] <hidan> ... ... why  doesn't someone ban him already?
[06:58] <jinxed> no but the HD DVD key being blasted on the site will so linux can play HD DVDS
[06:58] <jinxed> so
[06:58] <mlocker> Hi !
[06:58] <jinxed> my question

[06:58] <Flannel> !enter | jinxed
[06:59] <ubotu> jinxed: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:59] <chainlynx> mlocker... post question?

[06:59] <pilgrim> guys...how do I kill X and have gnome not remember my session?
[06:59] <chainlynx> pilgrim... try ctrl alt backspace
[06:59] <pilgrim> chainlynx: gnome remember what I had open
[07:00] <voltagex> enough of the damn key, I need help with ubuntu!
[07:00] <chainlynx> you mean it remembered when you did that?
[07:00] <Music_Shuffle> voltagex: ask away
[07:00] <linux_user400354> can anyone help with this? im trying to run shivers under wine in ubuntu http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18758/
[07:00] <pilgrim> chainlynx: yeah...done it before
[07:00] <jinxed> Can someone tell me how to use the HD DVD key in ubuntu to watch HD Dvd's?
[07:00] <Wriest> hello everyone
[07:00] <chainlynx> hm not sure then... maybe something in a gnome conf file somewhere?
[07:00] <voltagex> Music_Shuffle: I'm customising the ubuntu CD, I need to add the livecd user to the mythtv group
[07:00] <pilgrim> chainlynx: must be.
[07:01] <MSTK> jinxed - you mean the recent hex leak?
[07:01] <jinxed> MSTK, yeah
[07:01] <tonyyarusso> jinxed: No.  That would be illegal in many places, and you can probably look it up anyway.
[07:01] <pilgrim> voltagex: alt+f4 isn't working coz window manager is not running, I supposed
[07:01] <ajax4> linux_user400354, Have you checked the wine website's compatibility database?
[07:01] <xSUSHix> how do I get a different background image for each virtual desktop?   I understand this is possible in metacity/gnome
[07:01] <voltagex> pilgrim: ?
[07:01] <Music_Shuffle> voltagex: sorry, 's over my head :(
[07:01] <linux_user400354> ajax4: yes
[07:02] <mjbrooks> speaking of geeky newsites, and this is only slightly offtopic as we might get a huge influx of users in the near future, I saw on slashdot that CNet is reporting that Dell will be shipping ubuntu as an option
[07:02] <mlocker> i can't hear sound in xubuntu
[07:02] <chainlynx> pilgrim: try the /etc/gnome directory
[07:02] <Wriest> I wanted to know how to install the sky dome
[07:02] <jinxed> i don't need help finding the code MSTK and tonyyarusso  the code is everywhere (every article on the homepage of digg currently has the code in the title or summary) I was just wondering how someone would use it in ubuntu, or at least what it meant for ubuntu
[07:02] <ajax4> linux_user400354, I'd try the wine channel...getting a particular game to run under wine is off-topic for the Ubuntu channel.
[07:02] <xSUSHix> mlocker : System->Preferences->Sound    mess with the settings there
[07:02] <pilgrim> chainlynx: any idea how do I get the display of my GUI
[07:02] <pilgrim> ?
[07:02] <linux_user400354> ajax4: i am in the wine channel, and its not off topic. im using software in ubuntu.
[07:03] <Wriest> I wanted to know how to install the sky dome?
[07:03] <pilgrim> Anyone know how do I get the display number of my GUI session?
[07:03] <MSTK> jinxed - we really can't help you with that here, under our conscience.  (sorry).  But I could nudge you in the direction of google.
[07:03] <linux_user400354> Wriest: first you must install beryl
[07:03] <Wriest> I have it already
[07:03] <jinxed> MSTK, could you at least tell me what the code means... i mean you put it in somewhere and you can suddenly play hd dvd's???
[07:03] <linux_user400354> Wriest: did you look in bery settings manager?
[07:03] <NickGarvey> jinxed: google
[07:04] <Wriest> under what setting
[07:04] <jinxed> night
[07:04] <mlocker> xubuntu no have Preferences-
[07:04] <chainlynx> hooray!
[07:04] <linux_user400354> Wriest: under Desktop>Desktop Cube
[07:05] <ajax4> linux_user400354, You are asking for help getting Windows software to run under Wine, the fact that it is on Ubuntu Linux is secondary. I know its a gray area but I'd put it firmly in the category of "off-topic" and I don't think there will be much disagreement over that.
[07:05] <midgewa> Can anyone tell me how to view the users in an IRC channel? Im using Xchat. Should i use a different client?
[07:06] <linux_user400354> ajax4: shut up
[07:06] <tonyyarusso> midgewa: /names, or look in the sidebar
[07:06] <Wriest> I did but there's no wallpaper there
[07:06] <FakeOutdoorsman> midgewa: click on the number and users, such as "1167 Users"
[07:06] <FakeOutdoorsman> lower left
[07:06] <ajax4> linux_user400354, if you disagree then ask your question again and wait for someone else to tell you the same thing I just told you.
[07:06] <voltagex> linux_user400354: I don't think insulting volunteers is going to get you far
[07:06] <midgewa_> there is no sidebar
[07:06] <linux_user400354> Wriest: check the box off for skydome
[07:07] <ajax4> midgewa, Can you drag a sidebar open from the right?
[07:07] <linux_user400354> ajax4: im putting you on ignore
[07:07] <Nubbie> linux_user400354: very nice. try #rude channel for help.
[07:07] <voltagex> linux_user400354: ok, that's gonna help a lot
[07:07] <FakeOutdoorsman> midgewa: what ajax said...it's the dotted thing on the right
[07:07] <Music_Shuffle> He can still ask here, its his time, if he wants to waste it../shrug.
[07:07] <Nubbie> linux_user400354: i can pretty much guaruntee nobody will help you now.
[07:07] <Nubbie> it's not appreciated.
[07:07] <Wriest> ok I did it
[07:07] <midgewa_> i cant see a dotted thing on the right
[07:07] <voltagex> linux_user400354: as I said, no one is paid here
[07:08] <wastrel> what's shivers?
[07:08] <ajax4> wastrel, A Windows game.
[07:08] <linux_user400354> nobody was helping anyways, just fniding excuses not too, so i dont really care
[07:08] <Nubbie> who will help you now after the last one who tried was just insulted in such a way?
[07:08] <wastrel> play moon-buggy instead :] 
[07:08] <Nubbie> linux_user400354: maybe you should pay somebody to put up with your insults if you still expect them to help you.
[07:08] <FakeOutdoorsman> midgewa: that's odd that it isn't there.
[07:08] <midgewa_> hmmm there is a little button that says "1166 users" and when i click it i can see all the names, but thats annoying, i want it on the right like mirc in windows
[07:09] <Nubbie> linux_user400354: i suggest you read the website's definition of ubuntu.
[07:09] <MSTK> Now guys, no need to start a flame war over this.
[07:09] <lethu> midgewa, try the other xchat version
[07:09] <idefixx> linux_user400354: well why dont you take your charming attitude and try to get  help somewhere else
[07:09] <Wriest> nothing there nothing show up behind the cube
[07:09] <midgewa_> how do i get that? i just go this one through synaptic
[07:10] <wastrel> midgewa_:  if you mouse over the right edge do you get a double arrow  <=>  ?  that will open the user pane
[07:10] <lethu> midgewa, give me a sec
[07:10] <linux_user400354> why dont you take a pineapple and shove it up your ass idefixx
[07:10] <midgewa_> wastrel, no... its not there
[07:10] <Music_Shuffle> Why are you all allowing him to bait you?  Just ignore him ./shrug.  He'll get bored.
[07:10] <Nubbie> linux_user400354: i told you  you wouldn't find help in here.
[07:10] <ajax4> midgewa, on my system when the window is closed, the part you drag is to the right of the scrollbar.
[07:10] <wastrel> i guess xchat-gnome is different :] 
[07:10] <someothernick> !langauge
[07:10] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:10] <Nubbie> somebody with ban, please take advantage of your powers?
[07:10] <MSTK> midgewa - did you try enabling multiverse repositories?
[07:10] <idefixx> Music_Shuffle: ;)
[07:11] <midgewa_> MSTK, no, how?
[07:11] <idefixx> Music_Shuffle: just having some fun
[07:11] <linux_user400354> Nubbie: im not looking for help in here. im just putting you on ignore because you persist on arguing
[07:11] <Nubbie> idefixx: hes an asshat.
[07:11] <Taladan> Why not just call an chops?
[07:11] <voltagex> although I might become rude and obnoxious if no one can help me with my livecd problem :) it's pretty specific https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/5966
[07:11] <Blackknight> hello
[07:11] <Nubbie> linux_user400354: thats strange, because this is a help channel. what business do you have then?
[07:11] <MSTK> midewa - should be under "preferences"
[07:11] <Music_Shuffle> idefixx: ;D
[07:11] <tonyyarusso> Nubbie, linux_user400354: drop it guys
[07:11] <Blackknight> man, I just had a fun upgrade
[07:11] <MSTK> no, wait
[07:12] <Nubbie> tonyyarusso: i guess you heard the comment about the pineapple?
[07:12] <lethu> midgewa, it should show in the package manager when you enable the appropriate repository
[07:12] <MSTK> midewa - sorry.  Settings -> Repositories
[07:12] <tonyyarusso> Nubbie: among others
[07:12] <voltagex> linux_user400354: apparently you are still looking for help
[07:12] <Nubbie> tonyyarusso: eh w/e i'm over it.
[07:12] <Blackknight> system locked up while upgrading so I had to fix everything manually from the CD
[07:12] <linux_user400354> my ignore list is getting quite full
[07:12] <midgewa_> MSTK: i dont have a settings option lol
[07:13] <midgewa_> only preferences
[07:13] <renan> alo
[07:13] <MSTK> midgewa - on Synaptics Package Manager?
[07:13] <MSTK> hello, renan.
[07:13] <midgewa_> oh
[07:13] <midgewa_> hang on
[07:13] <ajax4> midgewa, try dragging the border on the RIGHT of the scrollbar that's on the right side of the screen.
[07:13] <Nubbie> linux_user400354: and the people willing to help you are dwindling.
[07:13] <Widespread> is anyone in hear good at networking with ubuntu?
[07:13] <ajax4> Widespread, go ahead and ask your question.
[07:13] <Rei-chan> What's linux_user400354's question?
[07:14] <xSUSHix> I think I found it.... "Wallpapoz"  http://wallpapoz.akbarhome.com/index.html
[07:14] <Wriest> do I have to restart when I get a skydome background?
[07:14] <wastrel> Rei-chan:  something about wine.
[07:14] <MSTK> People, linux_user400354 is a troll.  Just ignore him - it's best not to feed the trolls.
[07:14] <Music_Shuffle> Rei-chan: running a game under Wine or something.
[07:14] <Nubbie> Rei-chan: do a little search for the word pineapple above.
[07:14] <Music_Shuffle> MSTK: psh...I said that ;P
[07:14] <ajax4> MSTK, true enough :)
[07:14] <Rei-chan> I read that.
[07:14] <Widespread> how do i restrict the dir of the user who logins with ssh
[07:14] <midgewa_> MSTK what do i do in the repositories thing?
[07:14] <xSUSHix> Wriest : noo
[07:14] <MSTK> midgew_ - you can check off the repositories that are unchecked.
[07:14] <ingo_> hello! i have a problem with the touchpad of a macbook on feisty - can anyone help !?
[07:15] <Wriest> well I don't see the background I downloaded
[07:15] <Nubbie> linux_user400354: why don't you pay for Cedega.
[07:15] <xp_prg_> hi all, can anyone help me with my microphone?
[07:15] <Wriest> \I must be doing something wrong
[07:15] <midgewa_> MSTK they are pretty much all on
[07:15] <midgewa_> and there is no option that mentions a users list or anything
[07:15] <Nubbie> xp_prg_: microphones are muted by default, have you unmuted it?
[07:15] <idefixx> linux_user400354: let me help you. first of all click on start. do you know how to do that?
[07:15] <linux_user400354> xp_prg_: unmute your microphone volume if you havent done so. run alsamixer.
[07:15] <xp_prg_> ok
[07:15] <Nubbie> idefixx: lol.
[07:15] <MSTK> midgewa_ - main, universe, multiverse, restricted, multiverse?
[07:15] <Wriest> do I need to put a check in the box
[07:15] <therealnanotube> Widespread: seach google for "ssh chroot" (without quotes). that will give you some resources.
[07:15] <xp_prg_> the microphone show it is not muted
[07:15] <Wriest> to activate it or something
[07:15] <linux_user400354> idefixx!*@* added to ignore list.
[07:16] <Nubbie> xp_prg_: rightclick the volume icon, open volume manager. unmute it in there.
[07:16] <xp_prg_> but when I try to record nothing happens :(
[07:16] <voltagex> wow linux_user400354 you know how to use ignore
[07:16] <midgewa_> MSTK none of those appear for me, i can see none of those options
[07:16] <idefixx> well, that hurt
[07:16] <ajax4> Hehe
[07:16] <xp_prg_> ubuntu is quite impressive besides that :)
[07:16] <voltagex> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/5966 any ideas?
[07:17] <Wriest> do I need to put a check in the box to activate it or something
[07:17] <CaptainMorgan> my workspace in the panel seems to contain a bug... none of the workspaces within the panel are showing...
[07:17] <CaptainMorgan> any ideas?
[07:17] <wastrel> CaptainMorgan:  you're using compiz or beryl?  set the number of workspaces to 1
[07:17] <Nubbie> CaptainMorgan: using beryl/compiz?
[07:17] <Yggdrasil> can somone tell me how i roll back a pkg?
[07:17] <Nubbie> lol.
[07:17] <wastrel> hah
[07:17] <CaptainMorgan> right clicking and choosing preferences gives me the options to choose rows and desks...
[07:17] <MSTK> midgewa - Are you sure you are in the right dialog?  Open Synaptics Package Manager.  From the menu select Settings -> Repositories.  You should see a screen with five tabs on the top.
[07:18] <CaptainMorgan> only the desks contain no names
[07:18] <Yggdrasil>  libhunspell-1.1-0 was 1.1.5-6, and it should be 1.1.4-7.
[07:18] <CaptainMorgan> washbear, beryl? compiz?
[07:18] <Nubbie> Yggdrasil: find it in synaptic, right click it, properties, versions, pick your version.
[07:18] <Yggdrasil> awesome
[07:18] <Yggdrasil> thanks
[07:18] <CaptainMorgan> no idea what those are washbear
[07:18] <MSTK> midgewa - one of those tabs should be "Ubuntu Software".  There are checkboxes down the screen.  Check them all off.
[07:18] <CaptainMorgan> no idea what those are wastrel
[07:18] <Nubbie> Yggdrasil: most programs are backward compatible between versions though, what's your problem?
[07:18] <midgewa_> MSTK: the tabs read "ubuntu software - thrid party software - updates - authentication - statistics"
[07:18] <aKKiLLa> 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0
[07:19] <tonyyarusso> aKKiLLa: #ubuntu-offtopic please
[07:19] <wastrel> CaptainMorgan:  if you change the number of workspaces do you see stuff in the desks box?
[07:19] <Nubbie> ermmm... translation?
[07:19] <Wriest> do I need to put a check in the box to activate it or something?
[07:19] <wastrel> er, workspace names box
[07:19] <MSTK> midgewa - click on Ubuntu Software, and there should be checkboxes down the screen.
[07:19] <CaptainMorgan> wastrel,  no
[07:19] <noelferreira> idefixx: now there's other problem
[07:19] <Wriest> for skydome to to work
[07:19] <nomasteryoda> aKKiLLa, excellent ...
[07:19] <Yggdrasil> nubbie, sorry
[07:19] <Yggdrasil> my firefox is crashing
[07:19] <midgewa_> MSTK: yes...
[07:19] <noelferreira> i made that script and it works gret
[07:19] <djiivu> hi, just booted the live disk of ubuntu and looking to remove windows xp and install ubuntu onto hd. can anyone help?
[07:19] <Nubbie> wriest: yes, and check for help in #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[07:20] <Blackknight> I should make that code my wep key
[07:20] <nomasteryoda> lol
[07:20] <nomasteryoda> ya
[07:20] <ajax4> Anyone know of packages in the Feisty repository that I can install to mount vmware images so I can access the filesystems on them?
[07:20] <Flannel> djiivu: click install, and format with vengeance
[07:20] <Nubbie> djiivu: click install.
[07:20] <Wriest> ok thanx
[07:20] <Nubbie> lol.
[07:20] <Nubbie> np wriest.
[07:20] <CaptainMorgan> wastrel, I changed it to 8 workspaces... no names appear.
[07:20] <MSTK> midgewa_ - which ones are unchecked?
[07:20] <nomasteryoda> ajax4, vmware-player?
[07:20] <aKKiLLa> :)
[07:20] <therealnanotube> djiivu: make sure you have backed up your files first!
[07:20] <noelferreira> idefixx: i made that scritp and one command has to be running with sudo . however when i create taht icon in desktop the one with sudo won't start
[07:20] <djiivu> thanks for the response, if i put all i need on an external hd, i should be ok, right?
[07:20] <Blackknight> anybody know when the but in the rt818x driver will be fixed?
[07:20] <midgewa_> MSTK they are all checked
[07:20] <djiivu> a little nervous!
[07:20] <Blackknight> bug I mean
[07:20] <wastrel> CaptainMorgan:  it is very interesting.  what happens if you "killall gnome-panel" in a terminal ?
[07:21] <Nubbie> noelferreira: use gksu.
[07:21] <nomasteryoda> Blackknight, that kode is the key... jk
[07:21] <wastrel> (then look again at the workspace switcher app)
[07:21] <ingo_> how can i activate the 2-finger-scrolling of my macbook coreduo touchpad ??
[07:21] <CaptainMorgan> wastrel, I'm not about to do that... but I would imagine X would disappear?
[07:21] <Yggdrasil> nubbie https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/107340
[07:21] <Nubbie> noelferreira: that way you have a way to enter your password without a terminal.
[07:21] <noelferreira> Nubbie: instead of sudo in the script?
[07:21] <MSTK> midgewa_ - what program are you searching for again?
[07:21] <ajax4> nomasteryoda, The player lets you run the images and use them, but I need to access files in the images directly. Something similar to the "mount" command.
[07:21] <wastrel> CaptainMorgan:  no it just restarts the gnome panel.  another thing to try if you find that icky is to remove and re-add the workspace switcher applet from the panel.
[07:21] <Yggdrasil> /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/firefox/components/libmyspell.so: undefined symbol: _ZN8Hunspell5spellEPKc
[07:21] <noelferreira> but i didn't want to put a password
[07:21] <midgewa_> erm.. im running XChat-GNOME
[07:21] <Nubbie> noelferreira: use gksu to run the script.... sudo within the script.
[07:22] <Widespread> is anyone familiar with ssh?
[07:22] <UnluckyMike> BlackKnight: does the rt818 have the same problem as rt61 with WPA?
[07:22] <Taladan> Widespread: what's your question
[07:22] <MSTK> midgewa_ - what are you trying to find, though?
[07:22] <idefixx> noelferreira: still need that password stuff?
[07:22] <Nubbie> !ask > widespread
[07:22] <Blackknight> UnluckyMike, I have to add an extra letter on my essid
[07:22] <Wriest> ok it worked
[07:22] <noelferreira> let me see idefixx
[07:22] <midgewa_> MSTK im trying to get the list of users in the irc channel to appear in the window...
[07:22] <CaptainMorgan> wastrel, I'm having multiple application crashes... gonna reboot..
[07:22] <wastrel> k
[07:22] <djiivu> anyone know if i'll be ok if i back up to external hard drive, install ubuntu, and choose 'format'? much appreciated.
[07:22] <Blackknight> and the driver causes kernel issues sometimes
[07:23] <UnluckyMike> hum..
[07:23] <Nubbie> midgewa_: drag the side of the window towards the middle. its just all compressed.
[07:23] <MSTK> midgewa_ - oh.  I guess I entered in the conversation at the wrong time.  I figured you were trying to find a program in the repos.
[07:23] <wastrel> (i hope that wasn't from killall gnome-panel)
[07:23] <Wriest> how do I go to the beryl help
[07:23] <Wriest> #beryl
[07:23] <wastrel> Wriest:  /join #ubuntu-effects
[07:23] <midgewa_> Nubbie that doesnt work, there is no list on the side
[07:23] <Nubbie> djiivu: formatting your windows partition will destroy everything on it. so yes, backup everything you need.
[07:23] <UnluckyMike> Blackknight: ralink doesn't offer the driver on their website?
[07:24] <djiivu> thanks, it will only format the internal (c:/), right?
[07:24] <Nubbie> djiivu: if you don't want to completely get rid of windows, you can resize it and install ubuntu in the free space as well.
[07:24] <Blackknight> UnluckyMike, I got it working for now
[07:24] <noelferreira> Nubbie: but the problem is that i don't want to run the script with the password
[07:24] <zerokill88> GET RID OF WINDOWS!!!!
[07:24] <djiivu> i hate windows. thanks for telling me though!
[07:24] <Chav3s> Hi all :-) I have a webcam. Does Ubuntu support videochats ?
[07:24] <zerokill88> it will be the best idea you've had
[07:24] <Nubbie> noelferreira: but your script needs it.
[07:24] <Blackknight> I spent all day dealing with windows crap
[07:24] <lethu> midgewa, if you are using the gnome version of xchat you won't find a names list tab
[07:25] <djiivu> just nervous about deleting photos and important things
[07:25] <MSTK> Chav3s - that depends.  which client are you talking about?
[07:25] <noelferreira> yes Nubbie
[07:25] <Nubbie> noelferreira: besides running it as root, i don't see any alternatives for you.
[07:25] <Blackknight> djiivu, make backups
[07:25] <wastrel> Nubbie:  he could add that command to sudoers with NOPASSWD  feel free to walk him thru visudo :] 
[07:25] <asc> Sometimes you need windows for compatability or games
[07:25] <Nubbie> ohhh
[07:25] <Blackknight> off site backups even
[07:25] <Nubbie> i hate visudo.
[07:25] <Nubbie> i have had 2 bad experiences with visudo, and i'm in no position to help anybody with it.
[07:25] <Nubbie> sorry.
[07:25] <Nubbie> ;)
[07:25] <ajax4> diitante, if you're not sure, backup your files.
[07:26] <Chav3s> Good question. is there any client like, for example, Windows Messenger  or Yahoo ?
[07:26] <noelferreira> but in my home it works good Nubbie if i run it from the console (sh script.sh)
[07:26] <dj-fu> Is it possible to downgrade from Feisty to Edgy?
[07:26] <UnluckyMike> the only reason i need windows is for my wife...maybe i should just get rid of my wife
[07:26] <wastrel> dj-fu:  sorry, no.
[07:26] <zerokill88> asc true,but in that case of wanting to play c.s. for 2 weeks i would take out my comp out of storage(windows)
[07:26] <zerokill88> asc then it will go right back
[07:26] <MSTK> dj-fu: No painless way that I know of.
[07:26] <nomasteryoda> UnluckyMike, you are UnluckyMike
[07:26] <djiivu> do i need to disconnect my external hard drive when i choose format or not?
[07:26] <Nubbie> dj-fu: probably, but it will be very difficult i imagine.
[07:26] <Alonea> voltagex: not to be rude, but that guy you keep complaining about in winehq really hasn't been that bad, so I don't think you need to keep on notifying them of it.
[07:26] <powder> UnluckyMike, sudo apt-get remove wife ;)
[07:26] <thebillywayne> UnluckyMike, my wife adapted fairly easily.
[07:26] <Blackknight> Chav3s, yes, gaim.  or pidgin as it's called now
[07:26] <nomasteryoda> UnluckyMike, put windows into vmware...
[07:26] <wastrel> downgrading is explicitly unsupported iirc
[07:26] <zerokill88> UnluckyMike how hard would it be to teach her linux?
[07:26] <Nubbie> djiivu: it will only format the drives you ask it to.
[07:26] <asc> zerokill: Heh, yeah, like that.  Having win on a partition is more convenient though.
[07:26] <voltagex> Alonea: I've stopped
[07:26] <djiivu> thank you!
[07:26] <dj-fu> blast
[07:27] <dj-fu> I accidentally installed Feisty
[07:27] <MSTK> dj-fu - you could always do an off-site back-up of your /home folder.
[07:27] <djiivu> goodbye!
[07:27] <dj-fu> on a production server
[07:27] <Chav3s> With video capabilities, Balckknight ?
[07:27] <wastrel> eep
[07:27] <dj-fu> MSTK: that will be useless, seeing as it's a webserver.
[07:27] <Alonea> voltagex: ok, thanks.
[07:27] <voltagex> eep dj-fu
[07:27] <dj-fu> very eep.
[07:27] <UnluckyMike> she has no intention of learning anything linux
[07:27] <Nubbie> djiivu: i suggest you read up on how linux partitions work. its not like c:/ or d:/
[07:27] <CaptainMorgan> wastrel,  I am having major X instability... it's not just the panel.. my windows, every one of them, inlcuding xchat are not completely formed... looks like bug central
[07:27] <Blackknight> ah, I don't now any with video
[07:27] <Blackknight> yahoo has a native linux port
[07:27] <dj-fu> Going to have to nuke it and redo everything tomorrow. I hate wednesdays
[07:27] <MSTK> dj-fu: I'm saying, you can back-up your files and then do a clean re-install of Edgy, then reload your files.
[07:27] <wastrel> CaptainMorgan:  did you enable desktop effects?
[07:27] <CaptainMorgan> from terminals to folders.. to xchat.. nothing is completing
[07:27] <noelferreira> Nubbie: do you understand wehat i mean?
[07:27] <Chav3s> Thanks anyway :-)
[07:27] <CaptainMorgan> where are they?
[07:28] <Nubbie> blackknight: what does yahoo offer?
[07:28] <zerokill88> Unluckymike but what really would she have to know?
[07:28] <Bakefy> Does anyone know how to read a broken SD Flash Card?
[07:28] <zerokill88> Unluckymike ubuntu is pretty user friendly
[07:28] <CaptainMorgan> if you mean effects.. I did apply a background to ti
[07:28] <Bakefy> I can't get it to recognize
[07:28] <MSTK> Bakefy - how broken?
[07:28] <Blackknight> dunno, haven't used it in forever
[07:28] <CaptainMorgan> wastrel,
[07:28] <Nubbie> noelferreira: yeah... i don't know how to fix it though...
[07:28] <FakeOutdoorsman> Bakefy: i've dealt with those before.  what is the issue?
[07:28] <UnluckyMike> zerokill88: it's not that i couldn't teach her, she just doesn't want to try.
[07:28] <wastrel> CaptainMorgan:  it's a thing in 7.04,  system > preferences > desktop effects
[07:28] <Nubbie> noelferreira: when you run it from terminal, you don't use sudo? are you sure your terminal isn't already sudo'd ?
[07:28] <zerokill88> Unluckymike my girlfriend uses mine all the time.ya depending on what she uses it for
[07:29] <ingo_> how can i activate the 2-finer-scrolling on a macbook-touchpad???
[07:29] <wastrel> CaptainMorgan:  it's no automatic so if you didn't do it manually it probably isn't active.
[07:29] <Bakefy> FakeOutdoorsman, I can't get it to load up.  I have tried two readers, windows and linux
[07:29] <wastrel> *not automatic
[07:29] <noelferreira> Nubbie: i did a chmod 777 to the script
[07:29] <dwbell> Nubbie: yahoo messenger http://messenger.yahoo.com/unix.php
[07:29] <powder> Bakefy, did you try the card on another computer / card reader ?
[07:29] <CaptainMorgan> omg wastrel... I almost had a ****
[07:29] <Nubbie> dwbell: gaim doesn't cut it for ya?
[07:29] <CaptainMorgan> thank you so much
[07:29] <Bakefy> powder, yes, both
[07:29] <FakeOutdoorsman> Bakefy: what kind of errors are you getting?
[07:30] <CaptainMorgan> wastrel,  whoa.. the workspace cube effect is awesome!
[07:30] <dwbell> Nubbie: I use gaim, you asked and I had google up and running
[07:30] <powder> Bakefy, who made the card?
[07:30] <wastrel> heh it's working now?
[07:30] <Nubbie> noelferreira: that doesn't allow the contents of the script to access system commands without superuser permissions though.
[07:30] <MSTK> CaptainMorgan: Welcome to Beryl/Compiz =P
[07:30] <wastrel> MSTK:  it's compiz if he's using desktop effects :p
[07:30] <CaptainMorgan> MSTK, new in 7.04 I assume..
[07:30] <Bakefy> FakeOutdoorsman, no responce.  the computer doesnt even see the card.  powder, its a kingston 256.
[07:30] <noelferreira> so what should i do Nubbie?
[07:31] <Nubbie> noelferreira: i think you need to run the script with sudo/gksu.
[07:31] <MSTK> wastrel - heh, sorry.  I cleared my screen and didn't get the rest of the convo.
[07:31] <Bakefy> fakeoutdoorsman, powder, a friend gave it to me to get pictures off of it, they said they couldn't get it to work.
[07:31] <noelferreira> and always need to put the root password Nubbie?
[07:31] <Nubbie> noelferreira: the only way your script can work without modifying the permissions of every system program it calls, which i DO NOT suggest.
[07:32] <wastrel> don't even mention it then ;] 
[07:32] <Aerius> blah
[07:32] <powder> Bakefy, If you call Kingston tech support and request data recovery, they can try to repair the card and get the data off it for free
[07:32] <FakeOutdoorsman> Bakefy: and you tried different hardware readers?  have you tried putting it in the camera it came from?  try cleaning the contacts very lightly with a soft cloth.
[07:32] <Nubbie> noelferreira: yeah, its not that big of a deal. i think you can add it in the gnome-keyring-manager as well.
[07:32] <wastrel> don't know, can't hurt and all that
[07:32] <CaptainMorgan> omg this effect rawkS!!
[07:32] <MSTK> Does anyone know if it is possible to change the settings and colors on the CTRL+ALT+F1-F6 command line similar to the GUI'd terminal?
[07:32] <derektgreen> I need a higher resolution than 1400x1050...how do I do that?
[07:32] <Widespread> How do i restrict the dir that the user who uses sftp login access to
[07:32] <FakeOutdoorsman> Bakefy: i had one not work until the contacts were cleaned.
[07:32] <smallfoot-> http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/1595/thebestma4.png
[07:32] <Widespread> i only want them to be able to stay in the home dir
[07:32] <Aerius> Wow, DMCA Sure is making the news...
[07:33] <idefixx> noelferreira: ok i didnt want to so this :) but can put the password inside the script. 'echo "password" | sudo -S whatevercommand. I wouldnt EVER do that if i was you, but if you really want to do it.
[07:33] <Bakefy> fakeoutdoorsman, powder, thanks, I will try this... if all else fails I will send it to kingston!
[07:33] <Blackknight> I hate processing dmca complaints
[07:33] <derektgreen> I need a higher resolution than 1400x1050...how do I do that?

[07:33] <psylem> hi guys, I've just installed ubuntu 7.04 I have an issue with my sound
[07:33] <FakeOutdoorsman> Bakefy: kingston may be very expensive.  data recovery usually is expensive.
[07:33] <Nubbie> DMCA does not apply in canada. go nuts with your DVDs kids. you only need to worry about the canadian government.
[07:34] <Widespread> hi
[07:34] <noelferreira> idefixx: i did chmod 777 to the scriipt and i use sudo in it
[07:34] <Widespread> !ask
[07:34] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:34] <nomasteryoda> psylem, what sound card?
[07:34] <noelferreira> idefixx: it works ok from my home and the console
[07:34] <wastrel> time to repeal dmca
[07:34] <wastrel> but that's offtopic :] 
[07:34] <psylem> I installed it and sound worked from the live CD, but not when it was installed
[07:34] <noelferreira> idefixx: however i can't make the aplication with sudo running in the desktop icon i linked to the script.
[07:35] <noelferreira> idefixx: did you understran?
[07:35] <psylem> it sees the card which is snd-hda-intel
[07:35] <powder> FakeOutdoorsman, there is no charge.  I work for Kingston ;)
[07:35] <Nubbie> wastrel: or you could live in a country with moderate laws lol.
[07:35] <Avochelm> how do i find out if i'm running also or oss?
[07:35] <psylem> but I can't get any sound from it
[07:35] <Bakefy> fakeoutdoorsman, its a last resort.
[07:35] <Nubbie> wastrel: come to canada ;)
[07:35] <idefixx> noelferreira: not sure.. let me see. how do you call sudo inside the script? do you have to enter the password or not?
[07:35] <Avochelm> s/also/alsa/
[07:35] <nomasteryoda> psylem, open a terminal window, type alsamixer (press esc to close) ... use arrow keys and "m" to unmute
[07:35] <nomasteryoda> arrows to adjust
[07:35] <GigaClon> im getting graphical gliches on my buttons http://filebox.vt.edu/users/miwilso2/trash.png
[07:35] <FakeOutdoorsman> powder: oh...my mistake.  i assumed so because of the price to recover other storage.
[07:35] <midgewa> are there any p2p clients for linux that like... connect to limewire or sumthin? for music
[07:36] <noelferreira> i only put the password whrn i run the chmod command to that file
[07:36] <wastrel> limewire has a linux version
[07:36] <midgewa> is there anything better though?
[07:36] <Nubbie> there is also another program which connects to gnutella
[07:36] <wastrel> i don't use p2p :] 
[07:36] <powder> FakeOutdoorsman, you're right, professional recovery services charge a lot, but we are not recovery specialists
[07:36] <nomasteryoda> newsgroups midgewa
[07:36] <nomasteryoda> =D
[07:36] <ddonky> midgewa - i use gtk-gnutella
[07:36] <noelferreira> idefixx: lol now it works from the desktop icon
[07:36] <noelferreira> idefixx: question resolved
[07:37] <FakeOutdoorsman> Widespread: http://howtoforge.com/chrooted_ssh_howto_debian
[07:37] <ajax4> Hey guys...how do I search the repository for packages containing a certain filename?
[07:37] <Nubbie> !info Gtk-Gnutella
[07:37] <ubotu> gtk-gnutella: shares files in a peer to peer network. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.96.3-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 2205 kB, installed size 7548 kB
[07:37] <idefixx> noelferreira: alright :) thx Nubbie i guess ;)
[07:37] <ajax4> with apt, aptitude, or dpkg?
[07:37] <nomasteryoda> ajax4, apt-cache search pkgname
[07:37] <Flannel> ajax4: Already installed? or not installed?
[07:37] <powder> ajax4, apt-cache search packagename
[07:37] <UnluckyMike> midgewa: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/P2PHowTo
[07:37] <psylem> nomasteryoda, volume is at max and not muted, I've checked that previously aswell but with the volume controls on my laptop which work quite well I'm pleased to say :)
[07:37] <ajax4> Flannel, not installed
[07:37] <noelferreira> idefixx: just other thing. there's some kind of argument to open the xterm console in background or maybe minimize? Nubbie
[07:38] <noelferreira> it works now Nubbie suddenly
[07:38] <Nubbie> midgewa: sudo apt-get install gtk-gnutella
[07:38] <Flannel> ajax4: You'll need to get apt-file, then use that.  Or, packages.ubuntu.com has that ability as well
[07:38] <psylem> I get no sound but it seems that ubuntu thinks I am
[07:38] <nomasteryoda> psylem, hmmm, what application are you using to try?
[07:38] <ddonky> midgewa - amule is good for p2p, but it doesnt connect to gnutella though
[07:38] <nomasteryoda> xmms, audacious, amarok?
[07:38] <ajax4> So does apt-cache only work for installed files?
[07:38] <Shrimpy_> i would lilke to know how to change your network name either on ubuntu or windows (the reason is there are two of the same names on the network)
[07:38] <Nubbie> noelferreira: i figured there should be no reason for it not to work if your script is well formed and run with sudo/gksu.
[07:39] <Nubbie> nomasteryoda: use banshee, it's better ;D
[07:39] <Flannel> ajax4: apt-cache only works for packages.  not package contents
[07:39] <nomasteryoda> psylem, try this... if you have not already... sudo aptitude install mpg123 and try to play a certain mp3 file from the console
[07:39] <powder> ajax4, no, itonly searches the repos, regardless of whether the package is installed or not
[07:39] <nomasteryoda> Nubbie, ok
[07:39] <idefixx> noelferreira: im pretty sure there is a way to minimize the windows on startup.. even though i've got no idea how.
[07:39] <Flannel> ajax4: it's `dpkg -S [stuff] ` that only works on installed packages
[07:39] <psylem> I've tryed the default music player with an mp3 codec it downloaded after I ran it first time, I'm currently using the 'sound preferences' applet and clicking test
[07:39] <ajax4> Okay...thanks a lot guys I'll try your suggestions.
[07:39] <Nubbie> nomasteryoda: its in repositories.
[07:39] <djiivu> Remember me? Tried guided partition, "SCSI2 (0,0,0,) (sda). When it started to do its thing, i got this: "The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI2 (0,0,0) (sda) failed." any ideas?
[07:39] <nomasteryoda> yup
[07:39] <psylem> none of these works
[07:39] <nomasteryoda> i have just about all there are

[07:39] <Alysum> Im trying to mount my home dire from a LAN server in RW onto my workstation but I cannot write to it as both have different uid, any other ways ?
[07:40] <nomasteryoda> psylem, using ubunut or kubuntu? ... kubuntu open the mixer ...kmix
[07:40] <psylem> ubuntu, the gnome one
[07:40] <midgewa> OK so i got gtk-gnutella.. does someone wanna explain how it works to me? Im used to limewire
[07:40] <nomasteryoda> pcm should be up ...
[07:40] <nomasteryoda> ok
[07:40] <nomasteryoda> similar tool
[07:41] <smallfoot-> http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=480806201&size=o
[07:41] <djiivu> anyone know what this means when trying to install? The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI2 (0,0,0) (sda) failed.
[07:41] <Nubbie> midgewa: just play around.
[07:41] <Matir> can anyone recommend good software for DVD-based incremental backups?
[07:41] <Nubbie> midgewa: its not that hard.
[07:41] <FakeOutdoorsman> Shrimpy_: if i remember in the windows world, you can right click on "My Computer" -> properties -> computer name -> Change... (ok, so i don't remember, but i looked at my cow-orkers comp)
[07:41] <psylem> it's called Rhythmbox music player
[07:41] <Sleepy_Coder> lmfao smallfoot
[07:41] <Nubbie> matir: theres a couple good ones.
[07:41] <midgewa> Nubbie yeah im just poking a bit, where do the downloaded files go?
[07:42] <Nubbie> matir: search backup in synaptic, i'm sure you'll find them.
[07:42] <Matir> Nubbie, ok
[07:42] <thebillywayne> djiivu, it means the install failed, basically.
[07:42] <smallfoot-> http://i10.tinypic.com/4z9kwp3.jpg
[07:42] <Nubbie> midgewa: wherever you tell them to go in preferences?
[07:42] <psylem> but no sounds work from anywhere, even the login, logout sounds that worked fine when I used the installation CD no longer work
[07:42] <djiivu> wayne, any idea what to do?
[07:42] <djiivu> tried twice
[07:42] <midgewa> Nubbie, lol yeah i just got taht.. i gotta stop asking questions that are so simple
[07:42] <ingo_> can not aktivate the 2-finger-scrolling under feisty for a macbook :-(
[07:43] <Nubbie> psylem: are you using a laptop?
[07:43] <Shrimpy_> FakeOutdoorsman: thanks for the help! i found it. but of course i have to reboot windows lol
[07:43] <Sleepy_Coder> is that you, small? :D
[07:43] <psylem> yes, I'm using a loptop
[07:43] <Nubbie> ingo_: because it's a OSX feature?
[07:43] <thebillywayne> djiivu, try setting up the partition with a GParted LiveCD instead.  http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[07:43] <smallfoot-> http://newshappenings.blogspot.com/2007/05/even-church-doesnt-like-mpaa.html
[07:43] <Widespread> I have been searching high and low for a way to restrict SSH/SFTP users to their own home directory. On may sites I've researched, creating a chroot jail keeps coming up, but it seems fairly complicated. I just need basic SFTP functionality for our users. Worst case, we would like to enable SCP for them, but we have no desire to have a fully interactive SSH session going for them. This is strictly for file transfer and file/directory management.
[07:44] <Nubbie> !offtopic | smallfoot-
[07:44] <ubotu> smallfoot-: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[07:44] <djiivu> thanks wayne.
[07:44] <thebillywayne> djiivu, set up the partition scheme with the GParted LiveCD and -then- try installing.
[07:44] <smallfoot-> ok
[07:44] <smallfoot-> :(
[07:44] <noelferreira> how can i run an xterm console minimized ?
[07:44] <thebillywayne> djiivu, hope it helps.
[07:44] <Sleepy_Coder> Uhh....just change their permissions, WideSpread. :)
[07:44] <Nubbie> nobody likes the mpaa, no sense advertising that fact.
[07:44] <Widespread> Sleepy how?
[07:44] <Sleepy_Coder> ER...use "chmod" :)
[07:44] <ingo_> nubbie: yes it is - but should work with synaptic - don't know how to handle it.
[07:45] <psylem> Nubbie, what's using a lap top have to do with it?
[07:45] <Sleepy_Coder> So they can't read/write/execute anything in other folders...
[07:45] <derektgreen> I need to install my ATI X1600 drivers...my screen res isn't correct and the right options aren't available
[07:45] <nomasteryoda> i'll be something is just muted, though alsa is not showing it ...  try this... cat /proc/asound/oss/sndstat
[07:46] <nomasteryoda> psylem, nothing at all
[07:46] <nomasteryoda> try that cat command ... don't post results here thou

[07:46] <djiivu> wayne, sorry just wondering, but think it would work to manually delete all the windows junk and try again (or is that ridiculous)?
[07:46] <derektgreen> I need to install my ATI X1600 drivers...my screen res isn't correct and the right options aren't available
[07:47] <Shrimpy_> derektgreen: (i'm not a lot of help) have you tried using the restriced drivers?
[07:48] <derektgreen> yeah, everything crashed and I had to reinstall...I didn't know how to get it back to the way it was
[07:48] <Nubbie> derektgreen: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:48] <FakeOutdoorsman> Widespread: it might be easier to put them all in the same type of group that has restricted read/write access to certain folders instead of individually changing their permissions.
[07:48] <noelferreira> how can i run an xterm console minimized ?
[07:48] <derektgreen> Nubbie: do I type that in a terminal?
[07:48] <AutumnCat> when i enter http://bigsnake_net.photo.163.com/ , firefox said that the rul was invalid..what should i do ?
[07:48] <AutumnCat> when i enter http://bigsnake_net.photo.163.com/ , firefox said that the url was invalid..what should i do ?
[07:48] <timm> how do i get my lan ip adress?
[07:48] <FakeOutdoorsman> AutumnCat: is that is bait to get people to click on that?
[07:49] <ajax4> Is an underscore even valid in a URL?
[07:49] <Nubbie> derektgreen: yes, it doesn't matter what terminal, even if you can't log in with gdm you can still run that from a tty.
[07:49] <ddonky> ajax4 - yes
[07:49] <ajax4> ddonky, Did not know that...I don't think I've ever seen an underscore.
[07:49] <AutumnCat> Illegal character in hostname; underscores are not allowed <-- firefox said this..but i can enter 
[07:49] <AutumnCat>  site
[07:49] <nomasteryoda> timm, try this... ifconfig |grep 192
[07:49] <psylem> nomasteryoda, I have pasted it
[07:49] <nomasteryoda> k
[07:49] <ajax4> ddonky, is it only valid for subdomains?
[07:49] <AutumnCat> Illegal character in hostname; underscores are not allowed <-- firefox said this..but i can enter the site in windows
[07:49] <AutumnCat> so

[07:50] <Nubbie> AutumnCat: ubuntu is not windows.
[07:50] <orlock> Is there any way to move from Ubuntu 6.* to 7.* via apt?
[07:50] <psylem> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18761/
[07:50] <psylem> sorry
[07:50] <nomasteryoda> timm, that was if you had it already
[07:51] <nomasteryoda> np
[07:51] <Nubbie> AutumnCat: i don't know what i'm talking about... but does SCIM do anything like that?
[07:51] <derektgreen> nubbie: which x server driver do I use? trident, tseng, or vesa?
[07:51] <AutumnCat> another friend who use ubuntu can enter the site .. so i think maybe i had set something wrong..
[07:51] <Nubbie> !scim
[07:51] <ubotu> Chinese, Japanese, Korean Language input. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SCIM
[07:51] <FakeOutdoorsman> orlock: are you using 6.06 or 6.10?
[07:51] <psylem> should I pull my laptop apart yet, to check if the speakers are attached :D
[07:51] <AutumnCat> Nubbie: scim ?
[07:51] <noelferreira> how can i run an xterm console minimized ?
[07:52] <derektgreen> nubbie: which x server driver do I use? trident, tseng, or vesa?
[07:52] <ajax4> noelferreira, What do you mean by run it minimized?
[07:52] <AutumnCat> ubotu: scim what??..i dont understand
[07:52] <FakeOutdoorsman> noelferreira: i don't think anyone understands.
[07:52] <Nubbie> derektgreen: what video card do you have?
[07:52] <derektgreen> Nubbie: ATI X1600 Pro
[07:52] <nomasteryoda> psylem, looks ok to me...
[07:53] <psylem> me too, but still no sound :(
[07:53] <Nubbie> derektgreen: if there's an ati driver or radeon drivers, use them. if not, use vesa.
[07:53] <idefixx> noelferreira: this has nothing to do with xterm... its a gnome window and gnome has to minimize it on start.
[07:53] <AutumnCat> Nubbie: can you enter http://bigsnake_net.photo.163.com/ ?
[07:53] <veranis> good evening/morning all. I've got what I think is a pretty simple question. I've just done a fresh install of 7.04, and when I try and run "./configure", I get a "no such file or directory" error. Doing a web search hasn't helped since configure is such a common word. I was wondering if there was either a specific package that I needed to install or a specific path I needed to add to get that command working. Thanks all
[07:53] <noelferreira> idefixx: i thought it was an argument given to xterm command idefixx
[07:53] <ddonky> is there anyway to undo Automatix? i want to upgrade to feisty without complications?
[07:54] <Nubbie> AutumnCat: no, i get an error message in chinese.
[07:54] <powder> derektgreen, have you tried:  http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu
[07:54] <Nubbie> AutumnCat: it looks like the site is down.
[07:54] <wastrel> that is chinese
[07:54] <timm> if i connect to my vncserver the display stays black/gray, does somebody know why?
[07:54] <Nubbie> AutumnCat: invalid URL.
[07:54] <derektgreen> Nubbie: I downloaded drivers from ATI's site but when I tried to run it I get an error saying I "could not open the file" because gedit couldn't detect the character coding
[07:54] <FakeOutdoorsman> veranis: what are you trying to install or configure?
[07:55] <klasrudian> veranis, what are you trying to kompail/configure ?? does it even exist??
[07:55] <psylem> nomasteryoda, I'll try to boot from the CD and look at stuff and boot normally and look at stuff and see if I can see the difference
[07:55] <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? :)
[07:55] <nomasteryoda> psylem, hang on
[07:55] <wastrel> derektgreen:  the ATI driver that comes with ubuntu doesn't work for you?
[07:55] <ingo_> is there a macbook channel for feisty?
[07:55] <ddonky> derektgreen - dont open it with gedit
[07:55] <AutumnCat> Nubbie: that's strange
[07:55] <Nubbie> derektgreen: you don't open it with gedit... just do sudo apt-get install xserver-plugin-ati
[07:55] <psylem> nomasteryoda, kk
[07:55] <derektgreen> Wastrel: the restricted one crashed everything
[07:55] <cycom> I want to connect my bluetooth remote to my laptop, and it'll work if I shut down the hci interface, bring it back up, and scan
[07:56] <idefixx> noelferreira: you are trying to get gnome to start the window minimized, right? so that the window is on you desktop but only appears in the window list at the bottom right?
[07:56] <cewek> hai
[07:56] <yoan> haiiiiiiiiiiii
[07:56] <cewek> hai
[07:56] <veranis> at the time, I was trying to install mldonkey
[07:56] <AutumnCat> Nubbie: my chinese friend can enter the site..and they're using ubuntu...
[07:56] <powder> derektgreen, are you on Feisty?
[07:56] <h4wk0> peippo; Sounds like a dodgy install - I take it you have only just intstalled it
[07:56] <cewek> hai
[07:56] <klasrudian> peippo, what does /var/log/Xorg.0.log  says??
[07:56] <peippo> h4wk0: its been running for about a month
[07:56] <peippo> klasrudian: let me check...
[07:56] <cewek> hai
[07:56] <veranis> however, your question leads me to another: is the configure command supposed to be included with the package and not the OS?
[07:57] <noelferreira> idefixx: but i want that done with my script not at startup
[07:57] <Nubbie> AutumnCat: i have chinese language support installed, and cannot enter the site. the error message suggests to me the site moved or the server doesn't have english language support.
[07:57] <derektgreen> Nubbie: got an error "couldn't find package xserver-plugin-ati"
[07:57] <cewek> hai
[07:57] <cycom> How can I get my bluetooth remote to automagically reconnect?
[07:57] <FakeOutdoorsman> veranis: i assume you tried to follow the mldonkey Quick Start Guide in the wiki? http://mldonkey.sourceforge.net/Quickstart_guide
[07:57] <tonyyarusso> !id | cewek
[07:57] <teethdood> is there a channel for openoffice support?
[07:57] <ubotu> cewek: join ke #ubuntu-id untuk membahas ubuntu dalam bahasa Indonesia
[07:57] <Nubbie> !ati | derektgreen
[07:57] <tonyyarusso> !openoffice | teethdood
[07:57] <ubotu> derektgreen: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:57] <ubotu> teethdood: a free and open source office suite, including word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components.  To install: "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org". User help available in #users.openoffice.org
[07:57] <h4wk0> veranis; Each peice of software compiles differently.. There for the ./configure picks up diffrent information needed..
[07:58] <noelferreira> idefixx: something like: ' xterm -e -xx command &' where xx is an argumented that makes the window get minimized
[07:58] <Nubbie> openoffice is installed by default.
[07:58] <GigaClon> im getting graphical gliches on my buttons http://filebox.vt.edu/users/miwilso2/trash.png
[07:58] <Nubbie> gigaclon: maybe you're using a bad theme.
[07:58] <nomasteryoda> psylem, try this...  lsmod | grep snd | awk '{print $1}' | xargs modprobe -r
[07:58] <idefixx> noelferreira: i dont think that is a script issue you probably have to do that on with gnome.. even though there might be a shell command.. in any case try to rephrase your question because its kind of vague.
[07:58] <ajax4> veranis, that command actually compiles and builds your own binaries. It's not recommended for beginners. If you just want to go on the e-donkey network try installing amule.
[07:58] <noelferreira> idefixx: like a background process idefixx
[07:58] <nomasteryoda> psylem, then ... modprobe snd-intel-hda
[07:58] <nomasteryoda> then ... esd
[07:58] <veranis> h4wk0: correct. I downloaded the package, unzipped it, went to a shell and the directory I unzipped it to. But ./configure didn't work
[07:58] <rullie> hi, guys, i have a Intel Mobile 945GM/GMS/948GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller. i cannot get resolution higher than 1024x768. any idea?
[07:58] <GigaClon> Nubbie, if you look at the link you see that its the default theme
[07:59] <crimsun> rullie: what resolution/mode do you want to use?
[07:59] <aedes> what kernel is feisty at?
[07:59] <AutumnCat> Nubbie: thanks for you help
[07:59] <GigaClon> i just upgraded from edgy
[07:59] <crimsun> aedes: 2.6.20 + patches.
[07:59] <rullie> crimsun, 1280x800
[07:59] <peippo> klasrudian: hmm.. lots of stuff, the last three lines are "could not init font path element..."
[07:59] <robert_> [01:59:32]  <Leo Kitten> Hey, does ubuntu generally run with a stock kernel, or do they patch it to hell and back?
[07:59] <nomasteryoda> psylem, also let us see what kernel you are using... uname -r
[07:59] <crimsun> rullie: I recommend you install xserver-xorg-video-intel from universe in 7.04.
[07:59] <Nubbie> gigaclon: have you logged out and back in?
[07:59] <Shrimpy_> crimsun: for the intell there is a nice debain package for it
[07:59] <GigaClon> yeah
[07:59] <aedes> thanks crimsun, also does anyone use ciscos open source vpnclient on edgy?
[07:59] <crimsun> Shrimpy_: I know  :)
[07:59] <idefixx> noelferreira: a background process, like a daemon is some different you can get your scripts to the background by adding '&' after the command .. but why do you need the console windows then?
[07:59] <h4wk0> veranis; have you read the README as i have had this problem, But its only simply ./Config.
[07:59] <klasrudian> peippo, pastebin your log at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org so I can have a look
[07:59] <rullie> crimsun, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel ?
[07:59] <Shrimpy_> rullie: there is a nice debain package for it. i used it and it pretty easy
[08:00] <Nubbie> !vpn
[08:00] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[08:00] <darkness3477> Java is in 7.04's repositories, right? Does this mean the JDK is too?
[08:00] <crimsun> rullie: as long as you have universe enabled, yes.  I use it myself.
[08:00] <Nubbie> :l
[08:00] <rullie> Shrimpy_, noob here, can you elaborate?
[08:00] <crimsun> darkness3477: yes.
[08:00] <noelferreira> i know idefixx i said like it not it :)
[08:00] <peippo> klasrudian: ok.. I'll try and see if I can get that done somehow
[08:00] <teethdood> I want to type foreign languages in Ubuntu apps. Can I use the SCIM Input Method app to accomplish this?
[08:00] <GigaClon> teethdood, yes
[08:00] <crimsun> teethdood: for many, yes.
[08:00] <darkness3477> Goody. Just installed 7.04. I'm pleasantly surprised. It starts up so much quicker then 6.06
[08:00] <Nubbie> darkness3477: it may be in a commercial repository i can't remember.
[08:00] <noelferreira> i neeed a & to minimize it instead of put it in background
[08:00] <idefixx> noelferreira: ok :)
[08:00] <crimsun> Nubbie: / darkness3477: no, multiverse.
[08:00] <Shrimpy_> crimsun: its a file you download and ubuntu knows the file and will auto install it. so its really easy
[08:00] <noelferreira> :)
[08:01] <GigaClon> Nubbie, I don't seem to have the problem with any other them other than the default
[08:01] <Shrimpy_> crimsun: oops sorry wrong name lol :)
[08:01] <crimsun> Shrimpy_: we already ship it in universe.
[08:01] <Nubbie> thanks crimsun.
[08:01] <klasrudian> peippo, or you could send it to me... the log file
[08:01] <nomasteryoda> psylem, gotta run... sleep actually
[08:01] <darkness3477> Crimsun/Nubbie; Thanks. As long as I can download that and the emacs JDE I'm happy.
[08:01] <veranis> h4wk0: I was following install.txt ... but lemme go ahead and try ./config
[08:01] <Nubbie> gigaclon: have you logged out and back in. the default theme is the only one changed during an upgrade.
[08:01] <nomasteryoda> someone here knows the answer...
[08:01] <rullie> crimsun, ok thanks, i'm gonna reboot and see
[08:01] <GigaClon> yes I did
[08:01] <psylem> nomasteryoda, it didn't work, but thx for trying
[08:01] <Nubbie> gigaclon: log out and come back, tell me if you still have the problem.
[08:01] <crimsun> rullie: you just need to restart gdm after installing that package.
[08:01] <Nubbie> gigaclon: you do? thats messed up.
[08:01] <Nubbie> :l
[08:01] <crimsun> rullie: no need to reboot.
[08:01] <nomasteryoda> psylem, lsmod |grep intel
[08:02] <ajax4> veranis, why not just install amule from the repository?
[08:02] <derektgreen> Nubbie: that link instructs me to use the restricted drivers that I've already tried. If it locks up is there a way to restore everything to the way it was?
[08:02] <robert_> what patches does ubuntu apply to stock kernels?
[08:02] <crimsun> psylem: what's the issue [with sound] ?
[08:02] <psylem> I got the message FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel is in use.
[08:02] <rullie> crimsun, not sure how to do that lol
[08:02] <nomasteryoda> crimsun, thanks
[08:02] <peippo> klasrudian: how can I copy the log and then paste it in lynx?
[08:02] <crimsun> robert_: hera.kernel.org/git/  (search for ubuntu-*.git.)
[08:02] <Nubbie> !info xserver-plugin-video-ati
[08:02] <ubotu> Package xserver-plugin-video-ati does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:02] <Nubbie> :l
[08:02] <nomasteryoda> crimsun, here's the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18761/ for psylem
[08:02] <Nubbie> derektgreen: just use vesa.
[08:02] <derektgreen> Nubbie: thank you
[08:03] <PiNE> has anyone tried to download the deluge deb from their site lately?  i get directed to a page of gibberish.
[08:03] <Nubbie> derektgreen: it will get you up and running again, then you can worry about 3d accelleration.
[08:03] <psylem> nomasteryoda, that shorter command did something
[08:03] <arigold> Hi All, applying the ntfs-3g update to edgy, but giving me the NOT AUTHENTICATED warning.. any reason to be concerned?
[08:03] <nomasteryoda> what, lsmod |grep intel?
[08:03] <Shrimpy_> crimsun: are the xserver-i810-modesetting the same as xserver-intel ?
[08:03] <Nubbie> arigold: 3rd party repository?
[08:03] <darkness3477> do I need to add the 'Multiverse' to Synaptic? It's been a long time since I've set up a new installation
[08:03] <crimsun> Shrimpy_: that's the old and obsoleted version in 6.10.  Don't use it.
[08:04] <nomasteryoda> Shrimpy_, it was not for me... the intel one would not work on my laptop...
[08:04] <derektgreen> Nubbie: would vga, via, vmware be any better?
[08:04] <Shrimpy_> crimsun: ok i guess i'll change it
[08:04] <psylem> yes that worked
[08:04] <arigold> Nubbie - not sure where to check its source, since I am running through the GUI updater
[08:04] <nomasteryoda> good
[08:04] <smallfoot-> http://www.digg.com/ is closed
[08:04] <smallfoot-> website closed
[08:04] <klasrudian> peippo, ctrl-x + i
[08:04] <crimsun> psylem: I need to know what the root symptom is.
[08:04] <veranis> ...
[08:04] <crimsun> nomasteryoda: thanks.
[08:04] <ajax4> arigold, this should get rid of the message: sudo apt-get update
[08:04] <nomasteryoda> so the module is not loading for his card
[08:04] <Shrimpy_> nomasteryoda: yeah i'm on a laptop
[08:04] <Nubbie> derektgreen: don't change the default plugins, skip through it all until you get to the screen resolutions
[08:04] <rullie> crimsun, it worked ,thank you! :)
[08:04] <psylem> crimsun: when I installed ubuntu to my laptop, sound no longer works
[08:04] <crimsun> rullie: np.
[08:04] <FakeOutdoorsman> PiNE: i confirm your error.  i bet their mime settings are messed up.  you can still right click it and download or use wget in terminal
[08:05] <nomasteryoda> Shrimpy_, i stuck with the i810... had to uninstall the intel version...
[08:05] <crimsun> psylem: I presume you mean 7.04?
[08:05] <ajax4> arigold, try that and then do try to install that package and see if it gets rid of the error.
[08:05] <robert_> crimsun: my friend wants to know if she can patch a ubuntu kernel, or if there will be problems
[08:05] <psylem> crimsun: yes
[08:05] <rullie> crimsun, one more thing, it's prompting the keyring manager everytime i login, how do i get rid of that?
[08:05] <arigold> have you heard of bad repositories for this particular source?
[08:05] <crimsun> psylem: I've fixed that already.  See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/105582
[08:05] <psylem> crimsun: it worked fine on the installation CD
[08:05] <PiNE> FakeOutdoorsman, cheers, i will try that.
[08:05] <arigold> ajax4 - ok will do
[08:05] <midgewa> Nubbie: with gtk-gnutella, im having trouble removing files that are 100% from the download window... am i missing something?
[08:05] <Shrimpy_> nomasteryoda: well it's the i80-modesetting. i found it on debain
[08:05] <thebillywayne> nomasteryoda, what sort of problems did you have with the intel version, versus the i810?
[08:05] <FakeOutdoorsman> PiNE: you should let them know it is mental on their site.
[08:05] <psylem> crimsun: and there appears to be nothing wrong
[08:05] <crimsun> robert_: it may be difficult.  What does she want to patch in?
[08:05] <nomasteryoda> thebillywayne, i got complete black xorg screen...
[08:05] <Shrimpy_> nomasteryoda: because i tired just the i180 and it not good
[08:06] <nomasteryoda> no video
[08:06] <AutumnCat> FakeOutdoorsman: of course not
[08:06] <nomasteryoda> weird.. this is i855gm chip
[08:06] <nomasteryoda> beryl is uber good on it
[08:06] <crimsun> rullie: see libpam-keyring, but it requires additional configuration.
[08:06] <Shrimpy_> nomasteryoda: beryl takes away all my free time lol
[08:06] <FakeOutdoorsman> AutumnCat: of course not?  me confused.
[08:06] <rullie> crimsun, hm ok. thanks
[08:06] <PiNE> FakeOutdoorsman, yeah, it would be good for them to know!
[08:06] <zbrown> beryl takes away all my process cycles :(
[08:06] <midgewa> Nubbie: with gtk-gnutella, im having trouble removing files that are 100% from the download window... am i missing something?
[08:06] <nomasteryoda> hehe
[08:07] <nomasteryoda> ya my sleep time... just tweaking it...
[08:07] <HiddenHax> anyone have backtrack 2?
[08:07] <robert_> [02:08:29]  <Leo Kitten> But I want to know what I'll break if I use a stock 2.6.21
[08:07] <FakeOutdoorsman> PiNE: maybe you should ask them for a md5hash to see if the deb on the site has been corrupted.
[08:07] <psylem> nomasteryoda: what do I do next?
[08:07] <nomasteryoda> 16 virtual screens are too much for my brain to handle....
[08:07] <FakeOutdoorsman> but that is probably not needed...
[08:07] <crimsun> psylem: please see the URL I gave you above.  I fixed that bug in early April.
[08:07] <AutumnCat> FakeOutdoorsman: It's not a bait, the url is a alias of http://photo.163.com/photos/bigsnake_net/
[08:08] <FakeOutdoorsman> oh...duh
[08:08] <peippo> klasrudian: pastebin tells me I'm probably trying to spam when I tried posting that log file :/
[08:08] <Nubbie> new beryl plugin will have tilable workspaces... up to 64 workspaces i believe.
[08:08] <robert_> crimsun: she runs a stock kernel
[08:08] <Nubbie> thats crazy.
[08:08] <Shrimpy_> why would you need 64 worksapces?
[08:08] <bradf0rdX> Is there a way that I can make things that I put in the task bar at the bottom... um stay forever?
[08:08] <psylem> thx crimsun, must have missed that
[08:08] <idefixx> Nubbie: woot 64
[08:08] <midgewa> who the hell needs 64 workspaces?
[08:08] <crimsun> robert_: a stock .21 doesn't have all our wifi and sound patches, among many others.
[08:08] <bradf0rdX> Like, I want the trash to stay forever, and there be no way for me to get it off
[08:09] <klasrudian> peippo, xD  do a "less /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE"
[08:09] <bradf0rdX> Like the trash in OS X, you can't get it off of the dock @ all
[08:09] <robert_> crimsun: will it *break* is what she wants to know- i.e. not boot
[08:09] <crimsun> robert_: I need hardware details.  Unless you want me to guess what hardware she has.
[08:09] <ajax4> bradf0rdX, there is a permanent trash icon you can add to the taskbar.
[08:10] <bradf0rdX> ajax4, Where do I get that?
[08:10] <robert_> asking
[08:10] <idefixx> bradf0rdX: why doesnt putting it there and locking it to that position do it for you? i mean how often do you accidental click on 'remove'?
[08:10] <bradf0rdX> all the time... even in Windows
[08:10] <arigold> ajax4: thanks.. worked by command line
[08:10] <ajax4> bradf0rdX, right click the taskbarm click add to panel, then click trash, then click the add button.
[08:10] <bradf0rdX> If there
[08:11] <ajax4> arigold, no problem. I had a similar problem when I first installed and someone recommended that fix to me :)
[08:11] <nomasteryoda> psylem, did you get down to it? ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/105582/comments/29
[08:11] <peippo> klasrudian: "Failed to initialize GLX module" ... "AIGLX: DRI Module not loaded" ... and "xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/wacom"
[08:11] <bradf0rdX> are the words "delete" or "Remove" or "Empty" or anything like that on the trash I'll click which ever I see 1st
[08:11] <arigold> ajax4: trying to follow through with this nifty list: http://tinyurl.com/3xwv6x
[08:11] <psylem> Crimsun: thx m8, I owe you one
[08:11] <klasrudian> peippo, xD  do a "less /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep WW" gives??
[08:12] <idefixx> bradf0rdX: well that no good then :) i dont know how to help you.. would a trashcan on your desktop be ok?
[08:12] <ajax4> bradf0rdX, no I think its just a trash icon, though you might be able to add your own caption.
[08:12] <crimsun> psylem: don't mention it.  :)
[08:12] <MSTK> hey, does anyone know if it's possible to change the colors on the Gnome Command line (the one that comes up when you press CTR L+ALT+F1-F6?)
[08:13] <wastrel> MSTK:  like the prompt colors?
[08:13] <bradf0rdX> How would I do that? Like... make it say "EMPTY THE TRASH, NOT DELETE THE ICON"
[08:13] <bradf0rdX> ?

[08:13] <robert_> psst, crimsun
[08:13] <robert_> [02:11:44]  <Leo Kitten> The biggest ones are.. uhh..
[08:13] <robert_> [02:14:21]  <Leo Kitten>
[08:13] <robert_> ICH7 High Definition audio codec (Damned if I can tell which one)
[08:13] <robert_> Attansic L1 gigabit ethernet (ATL1 driver)
[08:13] <robert_>  Box doesn't say anything. It's an Asus P5L-MX board
[08:13] <idefixx> bradf0rdX: ok i just check you cant delete the trash thingy from the desktop :). so that should work for you.
[08:13] <MSTK> wastrel - yeah.  The font and background colors, similar to how you can change the GUI terminal.
[08:13] <josh_> Sorry new to linux. I am looking for help with grub. Can someone direct me to the right place.
[08:14] <bradf0rdX> idefixx, thx
[08:14] <Shrimpy_> brad0rdX: open the trash bin. and then in feisty there is a big menu on top saying empty trash
[08:14] <wastrel> MSTK:  you can change the bash prompt color with the bash prompt howto
[08:14] <wims> how do i find out which device my dvd-rw is?
[08:14] <idefixx> bradf0rdX: press alt+f2, type in 'gconf-editor' and got to /apps/nautilus/desktop/trash_icon_visible
[08:14] <wastrel> MSTK:  the background and font color in general... not sure
[08:14] <wastrel> font, there's a thing for that
[08:14] <arejay> idefixx: does that fix the problem with the trash icon not showing items in the trash can?
[08:14] <idefixx> bradf0rdX: check it, and a trash icon should appear on your desktop .. not removeable :)
[08:14] <bradf0rdX> now, is there a good dock for gnome that dosn't use compiz or anything fancy like that???
[08:14] <ajax4> bradf0rdX, I don't know how to change the caption for trashcans that you add to your taskbar (panel).
[08:14] <peippo> klasrudian: "The directory /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc, cyrillic, 100dpi, ...etc (7 directories) does not exist" ... and "fonts.dir not found in /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/Truetype"
[08:15] <FakeOutdoorsman> !grub | josh_
[08:15] <ubotu> josh_: 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
[08:15] <FakeOutdoorsman> heh...grub
[08:15] <MSTK> wastrel - you're referring to the full-screen bash terminal, right?  how would I do that, then?
[08:15] <klasrudian> peippo, the line  "Failed to initialize GLX module" what more does it say??
[08:15] <dodimar> i am trying to install ubuntu 6.06, i want to install it without going through the live program ( it's slow) how can i do it.?
[08:15] <idefixx> arejay: he didnt say he want the icon back.. his problem is that he keeps deleting it by accident.
[08:16] <idefixx> arejay: and there is now way to prevent that on the taksbar
[08:16] <ingo_> ekiga doesn't work for macbook isight camera - how can i fix it on feity?
[08:16] <robert_> incidentally
[08:16] <da_shrewd> hello, anyone expert in postnuke?
[08:16] <da_shrewd> i need some help
[08:16] <wastrel> MSTK:  looking it up
[08:16] <robert_> are there any ubuntu utils for customizing my bootsplash screen?
[08:16] <arejay> idefixx: damn :)
[08:16] <idefixx> arejay: ;)
[08:17] <peippo> klasrudian: please check in your X logfile that the GLX module has been loaded in your X server, and that the module is the NVIDIA GLX module. If you continue to encounter problems, please try reinstalling the NVIDIA driver.
[08:17] <pyrohotdog> Is there any software available for Ubuntu/linux for creating flash/action script animations?
[08:17] <ajax4> robert_, Yeah, go to System > Administration > Login Window
[08:17] <bradf0rdX> Does anyone know if there's a good dock out there for Gnome that DOESN'T use compiz?
[08:17] <psylem> Crimsun: Works like a charm! 30 minute turn around on an issue, good work guys!
[08:17] <klasrudian> peippo, what GFX do you got??
[08:18] <peippo> klasrudian: what gfx? you mean what graphics card?
[08:18] <robert_> ajax4: I dont have a 'Login window' - I have a 'Login Manager'
[08:18] <klasrudian> peippo, yes what graphic card do you have..
[08:18] <peippo> klasrudian: geforce 6600 gt
[08:18] <ajax4> robert_, that's probably it, on my version it says Login Window
[08:18] <robert_> hm
[08:19] <robert_> do note that I'm running KDE
[08:19] <wastrel> MSTK:  the console fonts aren't going to be the same as your X fonts.  you can install fonty, console-terminus and console-data for more fonts.  use sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data to change console font (there's probably a better way but that should work)
[08:19] <ajax4> robert_, Yeah I'm running 7.04 with gnome so there could be some differences.
[08:19] <MSTK> wastrel - thanks, I'll check it out
[08:19] <robert_> yeah
[08:19] <klasrudian> peippo, what driver are you trying to load in your "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" file?? for your gfx....
[08:20] <mama1> hai
[08:21] <midgewa> what is the "super" key?
[08:21] <teethdood> midgewa, it's the windows key
[08:21] <FakeOutdoorsman> midgewa: usually the Windows key
[08:21] <klasrudian> midgewa, the "win" key
[08:21] <midgewa> thankyou
[08:21] <FakeOutdoorsman> teethdood: you beat me this time...
[08:21] <robert_> OOoh
[08:21] <robert_> I see
[08:21] <theJokercard> You've probably heard the problem before. I'm having trouble with akamaru
[08:21] <robert_> Login Window under the KDE system menu
[08:21] <klasrudian> and i was totaly last 0_o
[08:22] <midgewa> hahahaha beryl just got so much better
[08:22] <teethdood> I kind of need some help with this SCIM stuff
[08:22] <s0urce> hi
[08:22] <Polygon89> hey, i just installed the nvidia drivers on my old computer, and before it allowed me to go to 1024x768, but now the highest option i can set for the resolution is 800x600... is there a way that i can change it to 1024x768?
[08:22] <wastrel> pyrohotdog:  i don't think so.  you need the adobe stuff for that don't you?  maybe gnash has something
[08:22] <CaptainMorgan> !mp3
[08:22] <Laney> np:
[08:22] <ubotu> 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
[08:22] <theJokercard> Well, anyone at all?
[08:23] <teethdood> how do I get SCIM to work? it's running, tried turning it on with the designated hotkey, but I can't type any foreign characters
[08:23] <klasrudian> Polygon89, you aloved that resoltion in xorg.conf??
[08:23] <s0urce> i installed the newest ubuntu version, now i try to get this 3d effects (e.g. cude desktop) running, any1 can tell me plz how to start? thx
[08:23] <robert_> ajax4: and, by bootsplash, I'm refering to the "Ubuntu" spinning logo thing when the system starts u/shuts down
[08:23] <wastrel> teethdood:  did you install the language pack?
[08:23] <ajax4> robert_, yeah I don't know how to change the bootsplash screens, just the login window screen.
[08:23] <wastrel> hrm that's a windows term isn't it
[08:23] <teethdood> wastrel, the language pack for GNOME? the entire thing?
[08:23] <robert_> then nevermind
[08:24] <wastrel> teethdood:  no the specific language you're interested in.   system > administration > language support
[08:24] <peippo> klasrudian: NVIDIA corporation NV43 [GeForce 6600 / 6600 GT] 
[08:24] <ajax4> teethdood, you just want to switch the language you input on your keyboard?
[08:24] <jlilly> Having a bit of a problem. I'm trying to install ubuntu-restricted-packages, but the java install fails. I run it manually and I get a conflict:  sun-java6-plugin: Depends: sun-java6-bin (= 6-00-2ubuntu2) but it is not going to be installed
[08:25] <idefixx> ajax4: i did that ages ago in debian you had to compile the bootsplash into the kernel dont know if thats still the case for ubuntu though.
[08:25] <klasrudian> peippo, that was the Identifier, what does the Driver says just the/some row under??
[08:25] <Polygon89> klasrudian, i just installed it 2 seconds ago i havent edited anything yet. but in the config file it has 1024x768 listed for all depths
[08:25] <ajax4> idefixx, yeah I played around with it in Mandriva also but I have no idea in Ubuntu...robert_ was asking about it.
[08:25] <theJokercard> Meh, I'll just repeat a bit more in depth. I'm trying to install Akamaru, but when I "git clone <address>" it gives me "/usr/bin/gitfm: fatal error: `chdir' failed: permission denied"
[08:25] <s0urce> is there any howto, how to setting up this desktop cube effects on 7.04?
[08:26] <peippo> klasrudian: ah, Driver: "nvidia"
[08:26] <idefixx> ajax4: oops wrong person :)
[08:26] <macogw> s0urce: what kinda graphics and with beryl or compiz?
[08:26] <wastrel> s0urce:  the fine folks in #ubuntu-effects can help with that
[08:26] <robert_> heh yeah
[08:26] <wims> how do i find out which device my dvd-rw is?
[08:26] <teethdood> I want to type Vietnamese (Xchat works perfectly) for example if I type "dd" I would get   or dda^y becomes y
[08:26] <ajax4> idefixx, np
[08:26] <robert_> and I'm still here :P
[08:26] <s0urce> wastrel thx
[08:26] <JerryMcFarts> Hello, I am having a problem With Gnome, It will totally freeze, I can not alt+ctrl+backspace. The mouse will be frozen also. This is when I boot into it normally, and I don't really do anything at all. I started noticing freezes when I installed VMWARE workstation and Deluge torrent cleint. But now it freezes when those aren't even started. How can I view what is erroring out?
[08:26] <idefixx> robert_: well i guess you read it then ;)
[08:26] <robert_> tmk, Ubuntu comes with bootsplash
[08:26] <ajax4> teethdood, try the gnome Keyboard Indicator applet.
[08:26] <klasrudian> peippo, change that to "nv" and you can get in to you X... then search in the ubuntu forum how to install the nvidia driver
[08:27] <macogw> teethdood: i have a script that installs asian language typing stuff
[08:27] <wastrel> i have scim
[08:27] <midgewa> is there an 'object dock' style program for ubuntu - i thought it was incorporated in beryl but aparently not
[08:27] <macogw> it just runs a bunch of commands from a website
[08:27] <teethdood> I thought SCIM would work
[08:27] <macogw> yeah it's for getting scim all set up
[08:27] <robert_> idefixx: uh, duh :P
[08:27] <theJokercard> midgewa, that's what I'm working on. No one seems to know the problem though
[08:27] <ajax4> JerryMcFarts, do you use xgl, aixgl, beryl, or compiz?
[08:27] <macogw> teethdood: yeah, scim's what you need, you just have to get the languages you need installed
[08:27] <FakeOutdoorsman> wow...i'm dumb.  i thought openbox wasn't loading, but I never tried to right click until now.
[08:28] <klasrudian> Polygon89, then the nvidia driver don't think your monitor/gfx-card can handel more then 800x600 O_o
[08:28] <JerryMcFarts> I have them installed, Beryl. But I manually start them up when I want
[08:28] <midgewa> theJokercard, do u mean you have the same problem as me?
[08:28] <ajax4> JerryMcFarts, I've had many instability issues with xgl/beryl and vmware.
[08:28] <theJokercard> midgewa, I don't know. I'm trying to get akamaru to work, with no luck.
[08:28] <midgewa> hmm
[08:28] <lgc> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyLqUf4cdwc&mode=related&search=
[08:28] <teethdood> I was under the impression that if I do System | Admin | Language Support I would actually make GNOME menus turn into another language which I don't want
[08:28] <Polygon89> klasrudian, the thing is before i installed the driver i got 1024x768.. why all of a sudden i cant use that?
[08:28] <peippo> klasrudian: ok, I will try that, thank you!
[08:29] <Si|3nt> Hello all
[08:29] <ajax4> teethdood, try the gnome Keyboard Indicator applet.
[08:29] <klasrudian> Polygon89, because then it was another driver installed
[08:29] <teethdood> ajax4, where is that?
[08:29] <wastrel> teethdood:  no, it just installs fonts and er, uh.  stuff :]   don't worry i installed chinese support and still have my english Gnome :] 
[08:29] <Polygon89> klasrudian, ok. thanks, ill just remove the driver then (not going to be using 3d anyway)
[08:29] <macogw> does anybody have any idea why my cd burner doesn't work?  it worked in dapper/edgy.  it worked in feisty til that point when it *completely* broke for everyone.  but since then it hasnt worked even though it works for everyone else now.  it doesnt give the old error that unstable would give where it couldnt find the drive or something.  now it gets a "write error" every single time, whether i use k3b, nautilus, or gnomebaker.  i'm not using a high speed (on
[08:29] <Si|3nt> my pc keeps freezing (using edgy) i checked processes in system monitor cpu is at 100% and usualy XORG taking most of its % ... whts up with tht?
[08:29] <ajax4> teethdood, you just want to switch the languages when you type them in?
[08:30] <teethdood> ajax4, yes
[08:30] <macogw> teethdood: to make menus change languages, log out and go to settings and language and pick the language
[08:30] <klasrudian> Polygon89, if you go down in depths you might be able to get a greater resolution with the nVidia driver
[08:30] <macogw> when you log in the menus will be that language (provided hte language packs are installed)
[08:30] <JerryMcFarts> ajax4, so beryl not started automatically would that still effect my VMware installation? I assume VMware dameons start up since I can use the VMware player, but as of Beryl I have to activate it manually. This is on a clean install of fiesty fawn. I really didn't have any problem until I recently installed Deluge torrent and I attributed my freezing to that. What logs can I look at that will show me more input on whats going wrong?
[08:30] <lgc> Anyone in for real fun with Vista speech recognition? Go here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyLqUf4cdwc&mode=related&search=
[08:30] <ajax4> teethdood, right click a panel, click add to panel, click Keyboard Indicator, then click Add button.
[08:31] <Polygon89> klasrudian, ill try that, thanks
[08:31] <tonyyarusso> lgc: offtopic
[08:31] <macogw> lgc: that's old
[08:31] <lgc> Sorry, I just discovered it...
[08:31] <theJokercard> So not a single person knows how to fix it?
[08:32] <macogw> /lastlog thejoker
[08:32] <ajax4> JerryMcFarts, that I don't know. It could be something totally unrelated to vmware, I just mentioned that I had compatibility problems with vmware and the desktop effects, but that may not be why you are having lockups.
[08:32] <wastrel> what's akamaru
[08:32] <macogw> there's no lastlog on gaim?
[08:32] <wastrel> macogw:  there's a plugin for that
[08:32] <wastrel> i think you just have to enable it
[08:32] <wastrel> also need to enable logging
[08:32] <theJokercard> macogw, eh?
[08:32] <macogw> wastrel: why's it a plugin?  that's like a standard irc thing
[08:33] <midgewa> theJokercard; tried a program called kooldock?
[08:33] <Shrimpy_> lgc: that is amazing
[08:33] <wastrel> gaim is a crappy irc client
[08:33] <macogw> irssi doesnt even have a GUI but it has lastlog
[08:33] <theJokercard> midgewa, is it for gnome?
[08:33] <midgewa> theJokercard i just got it and its what i want, the menus are just shit
[08:33] <wastrel> irssi is a good irc client
[08:33] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | midgewa
[08:33] <ubotu> midgewa: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:33] <wastrel> gaim is an instant messenging client.
[08:33] <JerryMcFarts> ajax4, thanks for the advice
[08:33] <midgewa> theJokercard i think so..... works for me, in ubuntu feisty
[08:33] <ajax4> np
[08:33] <sanityx> Haha digg got so pwned.
[08:33] <sanityx> !worksforme
[08:33] <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.
[08:33] <tonyyarusso> sanityx: offtopic
[08:34] <wastrel> and now that you mention it i don't know anything about gaim irc, so disregard my plugin dealy i was thinking of an IM thing :] 
[08:34] <midgewa> theJokercard; i cant seem to get the orientation to be on the top though, it likes to be on the bottom
[08:34] <lgc> Shrimpy_, it's just the usual level of quality Microsoft gives...
[08:34] <theJokercard> midgewa, aye, but does it have a physics engine?
[08:34] <ajax4> teethdood, is that what you were looking for?
[08:34] <theJokercard> the one I'm after has one built into it.
[08:34] <midgewa> theJokercard, i have no idea - im a linux noob
[08:35] <piNNoy> how many workspaces do i need to make the cube work?
[08:35] <Shrimpy_> lgc: yes so much work to do something simple
[08:35] <macogw> teethdood: http://www.mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu/scim/ for asian text input.  for changing your environment's language, install language packs in system > admin, then log out and choose a different language in the settings before you log in
[08:35] <midgewa> piNNoy: using Beryl?
[08:35] <dreamcastjack> hey guys
[08:35] <klasrudian> piNNoy, cube?? you mean the beryl desktop cube or??
[08:35] <macogw> wow #ubuntuforums is DEAD
[08:35] <piNNoy> midgewa: no i just have ubuntu,, do i need berly to have the cube?
[08:36] <teethdood> ajax4, I was installing the language support through System|Admin|Language support, going to try your method now too
[08:36] <macogw> piNNoy: yes
[08:36] <piNNoy> mac: ok THANKS
[08:36] <midgewa> piNNoy id get beryl
[08:36] <lgc> Shrimpy_, much ado about nothing...
[08:36] <macogw> piNNoy: what version are you using?
[08:36] <piNNoy> thats why i couldnt work the cube - lol
[08:36] <piNNoy> mac: im using version 7.04
[08:36] <macogw> piNNoy: if you have feisty, the "desktop effects" has a cube from compiz
[08:36] <macogw> ok you have a cube available then
[08:36] <ajax4> teethdood, if you just want to enter input in different languages and not change your whole system's language, that panel applet should do the trick.
[08:36] <theJokercard> midgewa, Meh, I'm downloading it to see if I like it then.
[08:36] <midgewa> piNNoy, i think there are ways to do it without beryl, but beryl is definately the best.. and the most fun
[08:36] <piNNoy> i have my desktop effects set on as cute..
[08:36] <macogw> piNNoy: go to system > preferences > desktop effects
[08:36] <macogw> oh
[08:36] <piNNoy> cube.
[08:36] <Shrimpy_> lgc: i'm still watching and laughing harder
[08:36] <macogw> did you ctrl alt arrow right and see if it spins?
[08:37] <midgewa> theJokercard yeah, tell me if u work out how to change its position
[08:37] <piNNoy> what buttons move it? i see the 3d effects when i move windows
[08:37] <FakeOutdoorsman> how do I declare the background color in a pure xorg session?  i can't remember...
[08:37] <theJokercard> midgewa, right now it's stuck at 70 percent.
[08:37] <macogw> piNNoy: Ctrl Alt and then use right and left arrows
[08:37] <MoL1> multimedia question: I have a fresh install of feisty, with w32codecs installed, but I realplayer streams refuse to play in Totem.  Totem simply exits with "unable to read stream" error.  Works just fine on my edgy box, but I do have totem-xine installed for that, totem-gstreamer on my feisty box.
[08:37] <lgc> Shrimpy_, there's a whole bunch of videos just as hilarious...keep looking!
[08:37] <piNNoy> mac: i just tried - it dosent spin.
[08:37] <midgewa> piNNoy, with beryl? ctrl+alt+mouseclick and drag
[08:37] <macogw> piNNoy: you can also Ctrl Alt and then mouse drag
[08:37] <macogw> midgewa: its teh same in compiz and beryl
[08:37] <Shrimpy_> lgc: ok i love vista videos!!!
[08:37] <midgewa> theJokercard; it downloaded fine for me
[08:37] <piNNoy> mac: its not moving 1 bit
[08:38] <macogw> piNNoy: then try beryl
[08:38] <theJokercard> midgewa, I think it is something with my net.
[08:38] <macogw> what kinda graphics card do you have?
[08:38] <ajax4> piNNoy, you might also ask in #ubuntu-effects
[08:38] <midgewa> piNNoy; try beryl, its more fun anyway
[08:38] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, setxkbmap
[08:38] <piNNoy> mac: Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Express chipset family
[08:38] <macogw> piNNoy: sudo aptitude install beryl
[08:38] <piNNoy> 224mb memory on grapics card
[08:38] <macogw> if you have intel graphics its EASY
[08:38] <james12296> Hi,   I have to ask if anyone has sucessfully installed a lightscribe drive in 7.04?   I use to run Linspire but was never able to install my lightscribe  software because lightscribe.com only has the RPM format of the files.  I tried to use alien to convert the file but have to admit that I can't.  I'm too much of a newbie to figure this out.   So my question is has anyone installled and is using a lightscribe drive in ubuntu?
[08:39] <piNNoy> mac: what exactly do i type in the terminal ? "sudo aptitude-install beryl"?
[08:39] <macogw> james12296: in a terminal, you type: sudo alien file.rpm
[08:39] <midgewa> theJokercard; one thing, when u finish downloading it doesnt add to menus, so u have to run it with terminal
[08:39] <macogw> piNNoy: yes?
[08:39] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: that doesn't look like what I remember.  this is for .xinitrc.  ill look-up your recommendation...thanks.
[08:39] <macogw> *yes.
[08:39] <teethdood> I thought all the fonts are Unicode fonts by now. I should be able to type all kinds of crazy characters using Times New Roman
[08:39] <piNNoy> mac: with the - ?   sudo aptitude-install beryl
[08:39] <lgc> Shrimpy_, I keep laughing because all the guys who try it get mad...at it...LOL!
[08:40] <macogw> piNNoy: no ?  just: sudo aptitude install beryl
[08:40] <piNNoy> mac: ok thanks a bunch
[08:40] <Shrimpy_> lgc: it seems pretty real. as in everybody gets mad
[08:40] <Shrimpy_> lgc: i love when it types random words
[08:41] <midgewa> any opera users here?
[08:41] <ajax4> teethdood, pretty sure you have to use unicode specific fonts. Don't ever use unicode myself, though.
[08:41] <lgc> midgewa, I used to be...
[08:41] <Oscar> hello all.  I'm trying to install the latest kmymoney in ubuntu gnomed. but a dependency is not found, even thought synaptic says i have it.
[08:42] <ajax4> Oscar, do: sudo apt-get update
[08:42] <midgewa> lgc; is ther reason u stopped coz its slow? when i was on xp i refused to use anything but opera but in ubuntu it seems to be pretty gay
[08:42] <ajax4> Oscar, then try again.
[08:42] <rullie> hi luna7kiss
[08:42] <Oscar> ok
[08:43] <Oscar> ajax4: i did what you said but when i run the deb package, it still gives me the same error
[08:44] <ajax4> Oscar, you're trying to install a deb package that is not in the repository?
[08:44] <luna7kiss> rullie, yo
[08:44] <Oscar> yes
[08:44] <lgc> midgewa, no...Opera is fast. Much faster than Firefox (even with Fasterfox enabled). The fastest browser in the world is indeed Dillo. It's up in less than 5 seconds. But...(there's always a catch!) it's very simple (no frames, no crypto, and so on).
[08:45] <ajax4> Oscar: Any packages that you don't have need to be downloaded and installed also.
[08:45] <macogw> Oscar: it might need a different version of the dependency than is installed
[08:45] <midgewa> lgc; i find that when surfing, opera loads pages much slower than firefox.. and i hate firefox but i find myself using it more coz opera isnt working right
[08:45] <ajax4> lgc: and no adblock :)
[08:45] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: ahhh...it's this "xsetroot -solid yourcolor"
[08:45] <Oscar> ok, i see, i will search for an updated kdelibs4 and see what if find
[08:45] <Mike> hi
[08:46] <Mike> how can I Install new USB device to Ubuntu OS.
[08:47] <lgc> midgewa, the only thing I usually run out of patience with with Opera is Flash presentations: they go really slow (on Ubuntu).
[08:47] <theJokercard> midgewa, this is retarded. My xchat works, my gaim and skype work..But no browser is working nor apt-get
[08:47] <Mike> Oscar can u help me
[08:47] <Polygon89> does anyone know how to add a grub line to make a computer boot up into console mode? (i dont want it to load x or xfce, etc)?
[08:47] <ajax4> Mike: most usb devices you just need to plug in and they work right away
[08:47] <midgewa> theJokercard :S thats fairly wierd
[08:47] <theJokercard> midgewa, no kidding.
[08:47] <james12296> yes, the file was downloaded onto the desktop but when I tried to run alien from the terminal I kept getting could not find the file.  I thought I would be smart and shorten up the file name and retry but I keep getting file not found.  Again please accept my apology for my ignorance as to ubuntu file structure.  From the terminal I tried to do  sudo alien ls1.rpm  the original file name was ugly and long.  This was the original comma
[08:47] <james12296> nd line.   sudo alien package_file.rpmlightscribe-1.4.142.1-linux-2.6-intel.rpm
[08:47] <macogw> Polygon89: that's what the "recovery" mode is
[08:48] <lgc> midgewa, I wonder why. It's always been the opossite...
[08:48] <Mike> I did it but It won't work how can I find it's been installed or not?
[08:48] <midgewa> theJokercard relog? i dunno... might work... alt+ctrl+del
[08:48] <jlilly> so I just installed the restricted packages, but amarok still doesn't play mp3's... do I need to restart or something?
[08:48] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, aah :D  wasn't yesterday i did i so a just took a long shoot... my bad
[08:48] <Polygon89> macogw, oh. thats convenient... never used that before. thanks!
[08:48] <Mike> Oscar I am using Ubuntu 7
[08:48] <lgc> midgewa, what version of Opera do yo use?
[08:48] <ajax4> Mike: what type of device is it?
[08:48] <midgewa> lgc; yeah.. i just really dislike firefox but its what im using now coz i cant stnad how slow opera is
[08:48] <Mike> It's USB Mobile Phone SIM Reader
[08:48] <Shrimpy_> lgc: press n  "backspace" press n "backspace" press n "backspace"
[08:48] <midgewa> lgc; 9.20
[08:49] <lgc> midgewa, you're state of the art now. Hmmm...
[08:49] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: i also had a wrong long shoot here. whoops.
[08:49] <lgc> Shrimpy_, what?
[08:49] <lgc> Shrimpy_, you're talking about the Vista video?
[08:49] <Shrimpy_> lgc: just quoting the video. ingore me lol
[08:49] <Punkunity> how many of you in here are agnostic?
[08:49] <midgewa> lgc, yeah which is why i dont get it... on windows opera was by far the best id tried
[08:49] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, what are you running a pure xserver session for??
[08:50] <Punkunity> and how many are actually Atheist?
[08:50] <ajax4> Punkunity: wrong channel dude.
[08:50] <Punkunity> nahh...
[08:50] <midgewa> Punk, whats the difference?
[08:50] <midgewa> agnostic/athiest?
[08:50] <Punkunity> nm, what is a good room tyhen?
[08:50] <lgc> midgewa, you have another choice: Mozilla. It's on the repo's too. You might want to give it a try...
[08:50] <ingo_> hallo all. need help on touchpad for macbook/feisty ...
[08:50] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: i'm running just openbox as my windows manager on a commandline install of ubuntu for an ancient Toughbook.
[08:51] <midgewa> lgc; isnt that just firefox?
[08:51] <jujimufu> Punkunity: what's the difference between an atheist and an agnosticist?
[08:51] <midgewa> lgc; 'mozilla firefox'?
[08:51] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, but openbox has it own cahngebackground thing going on
[08:51] <hylje> jujimufu: atheist: "no" agnostic: "maybe"
[08:51] <Punkunity> agnostic you believe there is something but you dont put your faith into a religion...atheist are against any religion
[08:51] <Memories> Hello all
[08:51] <Punkunity> hylje is about right
[08:51] <Mike>  when we plug any usb device where It's usually its display shown in Ubuntu
[08:51] <Memories> i was wondering if some1 could help me set back the panels to their default settings
[08:52] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, obconf
[08:52] <Memories> am using EDGY
[08:52] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: that's new to me.  i just added that line to my .xinitrc and it worked.
[08:52] <lgc> midgewa, no. Firefox is the "light" version of Mozilla. I don't know much about the innards, but they look different and they are on different installs.
[08:52] <macogw> Punkunity: agnostic means you dont know and you admit you dont kjnow
[08:52] <jujimufu> Punkunity: why would a Taoist who was born a Confucianist and later turned into an Atheist would kill an Agnosticist who now is as Sexist then?
[08:52] <Memories> and things got messed up
[08:52] <macogw> gnostic = know
[08:52] <macogw> agnostic = opposite of knowing
[08:52] <jujimufu> macogw: no kiddin, I am greek :P
[08:52] <Punkunity> ok how come it is so hard just to get a simple USB iPod to work on goddamn linux/ubuntu
[08:52] <ajax4> Mike: go to Places > Computer
[08:52] <macogw> Punkunity: use amarok
[08:52] <jujimufu> Punkunity: maybe because iPods weren't made for linux?
[08:52] <midgewa> lgc; i dont know if i can be bothered reconfiguring ANOTHER browser, esp if id have to go through root in order to get flash working and stuff
[08:52] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, but that's an extra openbox package... you have to install it...
[08:52] <jujimufu> Punkunity: but there are plugin for amarok, though.
[08:52] <Mike> Thanks Ajax4
[08:52] <ajax4> Punkunity: I've used ipods under linux with no problem. gtkPod is the program
[08:53] <ajax4> Mike: np
[08:53] <Punkunity> jujimufu what are you talking about man?
[08:53] <Punkunity> i have gtkpod and it doesnt seee either ipod i have ajax4
[08:53] <dennister> hey all, having trouble with surround sound in feisty (didn't get it going with edgy either) on a onboard realtek chip...snd-intel8x0, ac97 codec dmix:6...alsa channel quiet...anyone have any expertise and might be able to help?
[08:53] <macogw> ajax4: amarok's supposed to be nicer/better than gtkpod
[08:53] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: i have obconf installed, but i see no options for background color...just themes and such but they aren't affecting background color.
[08:53] <macogw> Punkunity: use amarok
[08:53] <Mike> I am Installed USB sim Card Reader but it won't shown in the Computer
[08:53] <midgewa> whats the best music player for Ubuntu? i get the feeling the packaged one isnt the best (at all)
[08:54] <crimsun> dennister: how bad is your codec quirk?
[08:54] <Punkunity> i have amarok, but how do i gte the plug-in for it
[08:54] <lgc> midgewa, no, because mozilla is on the repositories and Opera isn't. Type 'aptitude search mozilla' if you want to have a look at the packages.
[08:54] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, ooh o_O... you can set backround image with it but not a solid color?? how odd
[08:54] <ajax4> macogw: never used it so I can't say.
[08:54] <dennister> crimsun: have no idea...wishie in #alsa didn't mention that last night, but I've been reading...
[08:54] <ajax4> Punkunity: I've had success with gtkpod, but you can try another like amarok.
[08:54] <jujimufu> Punkunity: well, didn't you want a conversation on religions?
[08:54] <Mike> can I add any device manually in Ubuntu?
[08:54] <macogw> Punkunity: i thought it supported it by default
[08:54] <macogw> i dont have an ipod to test with
[08:55] <crimsun> dennister: well, if plug:surround51 really isn't working, then it's a pretty severe quirk
[08:55] <macogw> but when i looked at amarok on opensuse it had ipod support
[08:55] <midgewa> lgc; so if i get mozilla in its whole, all the settings from firefox will be carried?
[08:55] <crimsun> dennister: (and I don't mean dmixed surround51, which is separate)
[08:55] <jujimufu> I need help setting up an HP PSC2300 printer (printer only) on Feisty Fawn 7.04, KDE. The printer is connected to the computer.
[08:55] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: i believe openbox does nothing with background without something like feh or my xinit entry
[08:55] <jujimufu> any ideas?
[08:55] <Punkunity> i turned on ama and then i pluggen in the stupid ipod( iahte em, but helpin out a freind)
[08:55] <lgc> midgewa, I haven't upgraded to Opera 9.20 yet, but I remember I had to do some sort of (easy) manual installation with the STATIC package. Did you use the static version too?
[08:55] <ajax4> Punkunity: are you agnostic?
[08:55] <Punkunity> jujimufu i was just askin, no biggie to me though
[08:56] <dennister> crimsun: wishie was coaching me with plug:dmix6 last night...not plug:surround61
[08:56] <midgewa> jujimufu; have you tried to just add the printer using system>admin>printing?
[08:56] <dennister> *51
[08:56] <crimsun> dennister: yes, that's dmixed surround51
[08:56] <Punkunity> yes ajax4 and I know exactly what it means to be, sometimes it would seem easier to be atheist
[08:56] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: i had debian retch on this machine earlier today, but it didn't like the wireless card and rt2500 devs and i couldn't get it working.
[08:56] <crimsun> dennister: I'm specifically referring to plug:surround51
[08:56] <midgewa> lgc; unsure, i got it on the first day i had/used linux.. im still fairly new to all this
[08:56] <lgc> midgewa, perhaps you might have to import your bookmarks and so. But it's not a Firefox clone (or the other way around). It behaves differently. It's the good-old Netscape!
[08:57] <dennister> well i haven't even tried that yet...how do i determine "how bad my quirk is"?
[08:57] <jujimufu> midgewa: well, I did that yesterday, and although it did recognise the printer, the test page wasn't printed.
[08:57] <bonee_> i need the driver for my ATI x1300 for xorg 7.2
[08:57] <ajax4> Punkunity: if you believe in "something" as you said earlier your beliefs might actually be closer to Deism.
[08:57] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, wireless can i a pain to make it work.....
[08:57] <Punkunity> when i am in the amarok and have the ipod pluggen in, i cant find it, but the music player auto opens and i see the ipod shuffle, but when i plug in the ipod nano neither program sees it
[08:57] <macogw> ajax4: not necessarily
[08:57] <Oscar> does anybody know of an simple and easy to use collaborating software that would allow a friend to log into my ubuntu via a web browser and edit txt files in real time?
[08:57] <Punkunity> no they arent
[08:57] <ajax4> macogw: ?
[08:57] <macogw> ajax4: if its specifically a "godlike being"
[08:57] <Punkunity> ajax4 nope
[08:57] <lgc> midgewa, 'ldd /usr/bin/opera' should tell you.
[08:58] <bonee_> sup crimsum
[08:58] <macogw> ajax4: but if it's vague enough to include animism, you're not a deist
[08:58] <midgewa> jujimufu have u tried printing from openoffice?
[08:58] <dennister> thing is, after wishie went to work i actually got centre and lfe working...can't duplicate it now...then i rebooted, lost it all, and now sound is worse than b4 :(
[08:58] <ajax4> Punkunity: well you should look into it to see what you think about it.
[08:58] <Punkunity> ajax4 you probably know about this than i do apparantly
[08:58] <midgewa> lgc; "not a dynamic executable'
[08:58] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, i know you can set background with obconf, i have done it before... but however i think it's not saving it so if you restart/kill your xserver it will boot up again with the default background
[08:58] <crimsun> dennister: then it's likely a mixer control change that wasn't saved.
[08:59] <Punkunity> deity and animism huh?
[08:59] <ajax4> macogw: never heard of animism :) I'll see what wikipedia says on the subject.
[08:59] <klasrudian> wireless can be*
[08:59] <Chetwin> Anyone else unable to get to google???
[08:59] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: good thing wireless works with ubuntu.  should have known, but i got carried away in the quest for super minimal.  bah.
[08:59] <dennister> well crimsun, u read very knowledgeable, do you have some time to help? perhaps in pm?
[08:59] <macogw> animism is like native american religions where all of nature has a bit of supernatural in it and we're all connected
[08:59] <Punkunity> now on amarok if yuou want to help ajax4
[08:59] <johnt> I am trying to get compiz to work the only thing I have got so fart is wobbly windows will some one help please?
[09:00] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: are you using openbox?
[09:00] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, he he he super minimal can be a little to minimal sometimes... missing som key drivers and so on xD
[09:00] <Punkunity> i clicked on the bottom left on media devices
[09:00] <Chetwin> Can anyone get to google?
[09:00] <ajax4> Punkunity: sorry don't know much about amarok, I think macogw said he was familar with it.
[09:00] <Punkunity> ajax4
[09:00] <Frogzoo> Chetwin: google has billions of dollars invested in network infrastructure - you think the problem is at their end or yours?
[09:00] <midgewa> johnt: tried beryl instead?
[09:00] <Chetwin> lol
[09:00] <lgc> midgewa, then it's the static version.
[09:00] <dennister> obviously you'd like to stay in this channel if ur looking for help urself, or helping a number of pps
[09:00] <Chetwin> I can load MYSPACE for god sake, I'm sure it's google
[09:00] <midgewa> lgc; meaning?
[09:00] <Punkunity> macogw do read meman?
[09:00] <midgewa> lgc; i did it wrong?
[09:00] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, not know have been using it on an old machine i hade... but it's in the closet now... xD
[09:01] <Chetwin> If all of the server overload from the emo kids on myspace is getting thru ....  Figure it out
[09:01] <johnt> midgewa: do I need to uninsall compiz first??
[09:01] <midgewa> i didnt
[09:01] <midgewa> johnt; i didnt
[09:01] <h4wk0> weird Chetwin  i can get google :/
[09:01] <macogw> Punkunity: i dont kjnow what that is
[09:01] <macogw> no i dont know much about amarok either. i use banshee for music and gnomad for syncing my zen
[09:01] <Chetwin> Frogzoo: So much for billions spent on infrastructure HUH?
[09:01] <johnt> midgewa: so i dl beryl and run it?
[09:01] <Frogzoo> 1161 people reply they can get to google no problems
[09:01] <Punkunity> macogw i need help in amarok i clicked on the bottom left on devices
[09:02] <Punkunity> and it wants me to hit the connect button, so i did, and now what macogw
[09:02] <macogw> Punkunity: i dont use it
[09:02] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, have you tried blackbox and fluxbo to?? see witch one you like the best....
[09:02] <macogw> i sync with gnomad
[09:02] <klasrudian> fluxbox*
[09:02] <Chetwin> Frogoo: Where are you getting the 1161?
[09:02] <midgewa> johnt; yes...
[09:03] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: ok, so now i have the system down to using 31840k, but that is with heavy xterm.  i have tried flux, but i like openbox better.  i was interested in aewm though.
[09:03] <midgewa> johnt; use synaptic though
[09:03] <Frogzoo> Chetwin: U5 quit and messed my arithmetic
[09:03] <CaptainMorgan> Desktop effects is very, very nice.. but it appears buggy... some programs(after some time) have a tougher time switching to when Alt-Tab is pressed...
[09:03] <lgc> midgewa, it more or less means it doesn't go look for system libraries to run, but it has its own. This mean it is marginally faster, but bulkier than the dynamic version (if I'm saying something wrong here please someone correct me). No you didn't do it wrong. I was trying to find out if perhaps the dynamic version was the culprit of the slowness.
[09:03] <macogw> but you cant use gnomad on an ipod.  gnomad is for mtp devices like creative zen or creative nomad of dell dj
[09:03] <Punkunity> gnomad macopgw for ipod?
[09:03] <johnt> midgewa : do i need to shut compiz down some how?
[09:03] <midgewa> johnt; wouldnt know, id say not
[09:03] <midgewa> lgc; well it would appear not
[09:04] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, aewm ?? never heard of it... have too google some
[09:04] <Punkunity> gtkpod only does pictures it looks like...
[09:04] <Chetwin> GOOGLE IS BACK UP!
[09:04] <johnt> midgewa; OK then I will get it a shot and see what happens as I do not think it will be any worse than now :-))
[09:04] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: http://www.red-bean.com/~decklin/software/aewm/
[09:04] <ajax4> Chetwin: They must have heard you were having problems :)
[09:04] <midgewa> johnt; take it from me, beryl will blow you away
[09:05] <Chetwin> ajax4: must have wanted to see how many people could complain with a 1 minute downtime
[09:05] <macogw> Punkunity: no i just said gnomad is only for mtp devices (the kind that sync through windows media player and are "windows only") like creative zen (what i have) creative nomad and dell dj
[09:05] <lgc> midgewa, and you are on a new Ubuntu release?
[09:05] <midgewa> lgc, feisty
[09:05] <Punkunity> Could not find iPod directory structure at '/media/ipod'.
[09:05] <Punkunity> If you are sure that the iPod is properly mounted at '/media/ipod', gtkpod can create the directory structure for you.
[09:05] <Punkunity> Do you want to create the directory structure now?
[09:05] <Punkunity>  on gtkpod it says that when i seacrh for devices
[09:05] <ajax4> Chetwin: :)
[09:05] <Oscar> by syncing your zen via gnomad, you mean transfer music ubuntu --> zen.  that's not really syncing.  or i'm i missing something?
[09:05] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, yeah found it... google is damn good... oooh looks realy minimalistic
[09:05] <johnt> midgewa; looking forward to that see ya in a bit going to apt--get right now
[09:06] <Shrimpy_> is there a way i can change my mouse cusor
[09:06] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: perhaps too minimal.  i was using the chart here for wm memory comparisons: http://debian.cante.net/stem/faq/index.html
[09:06] <Shrimpy_> besides the red one and the white one lol
[09:06] <ajax4> Shrimpy_: System > Preferences > Mouse
[09:06] <Punkunity> man linux is definitely becoming more a second hand OS, I hate windows and all but there is so much more free support than Ubuntu
[09:07] <lgc> midgewa, then I don't know. You might want to try luck at #opera, but it's a virtually dead channel. Or at the Opera forums.
[09:07] <Skaag> I want to add a path to certain binaries that will apply for when I sudo -s where do I add this?
[09:07] <Shrimpy_> ajax4: all i have is human and redglass. is there a why i can add more. like a certain file typed
[09:07] <midgewa> lgc; hmm thanks anyway
[09:07] <Punkunity> i dont think i have paid for anyhting on windows including XP pro itself.
[09:07] <macogw> Punkunity: http://chainlynx.blogspot.com/2007/04/ipod-amarok.html try that site
[09:07] <FakeOutdoorsman> Punkunity: we are giving free support.  can't get cheaper than that.
[09:07] <james12296> how do tell terminal the location of a file on the desktop?
[09:07] <macogw> Punkunity: so your windows is pirated?
[09:07] <lgc> midgewa, for nothing...
[09:08] <macogw> james12296: cd ~/Desktop
[09:08] <midgewa> Punkunity; what do u mean no free support... everything on linux is free
[09:08] <midgewa> lgc; lol.. the effort :P
[09:08] <ajax4> Shrimpy_: I don't know how to add custom mouse pointers.
[09:08] <sanityx> Anybody know how I can make Xgl use the regular ubuntu theme and iconset? I got Xgl + Compiz working but now its using the ugly default debian icons + theme
[09:08] <lgc> Shrimpy_, how about a voice-activated Vista-like cursor? He, He...
[09:08] <Punkunity> my windows is gone for now into the abyss of reformatting anbd partitioning i lost all my data. didnt back anything up, my dumbass midgewa
[09:08] <Punkunity> macogw
[09:09] <Shrimpy_> lgc: hahaha sounds good.
[09:09] <rohinton> Hi - just tried to install the 7.04 buntu's on a dell gx260 and they don't seem to work, the previous beta did ok? any one else seen this?
[09:09] <equilibrix> hello guys, anybody here is familiar with Java applets development in Eclipse?
[09:09] <midgewa> Punkunity, i fail to see how this means ubuntu is bad?
[09:09] <macogw> rohinton: does it load up and not install or nothing at all?
[09:09] <jujimufu> midgewa: no, I printed from OpenOffice.org but it didn't print.
[09:09] <Punkunity> i necver said no fere support, but i meant that ipod is not really suppoted my psp was a bitch to get to work, my sound card took forever, but at least i have no viruses hahahahaa
[09:10] <rohinton> macogw: no
[09:10] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | Punkunity
[09:10] <ubotu> Punkunity: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:10] <xushi> hi all. I messed up my sudo/login with pam.. what is the original content of /etc/nsswitch.conf ? i need that to know it
[09:10] <midgewa> jujimufu, does the printer still show up in the printers section in system?
[09:10] <jujimufu> midgewa: well, obviously, since it exists in the printer list of OO.org
[09:10] <rohinton> Punkunity: if it's just scraped the partition table you may be able to repair....
[09:10] <macogw> Punkunity: ipods are supported just fine.  will you go the link i sent?
[09:11] <Punkunity> im not saying ubuntu is bad just not as updated and less availability for top notch programs for external media devices, and drivers for printers(which i still cant get to work)
[09:11] <midgewa> Punkunity; surely you were aware of all those things about linux.. its community based, if noone has written decent drivers for ur stuff, they wont work
[09:11] <jujimufu> Punkunity: top notch programs for external media devides? Such as?
[09:11] <bradf0rdX> does anyone know of an application that tells you Hardware specs? Like Aida32 for Linux????
[09:11] <macogw> Punkunity:  GO TO THE SITE I LINKED
[09:11] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, oooh intresting
[09:11] <macogw> rohinton: it doesnt get to the "start or install" screen?
[09:11] <rohinton> macogw: ...
[09:12] <midgewa> jujimufu; hmm not really sure how to help you, my printer plugged and played... i was very impressed... maybe post ur query on the forum
[09:12] <macogw> rohinton: does it get to "start or install" ?
[09:12] <rohinton> macogw: no I don't get the install screen.
[09:12] <macogw> Punkunity: go to this http://chainlynx.blogspot.com/2007/04/ipod-amarok.html
[09:12] <jujimufu> midgewa: others have told me that they just plugged their printer in and it worked too. What printer do you have?
[09:12] <Punkunity> im there, looks promising macogw, i am not wanting a battle here, i love linux way more than windows, just frustrating when you have to use linux and you have only used it a week
[09:12] <macogw> rohinton: but it shows the splash screen?
[09:12] <midgewa> jujimufu; one thing that might have happened is that you possibly selected incorrect drivers from the list though?
[09:12] <rohinton> macogw: no
[09:12] <crolle17> i installed vmplayer and got *.vmx file running. now i want to copy a made screenshot to my "real" world in ubuntu. how can do that?
[09:12] <macogw> rohinton: it doesnt boot the cd at all then?
[09:13] <crolle17> how can i do that
[09:13] <rohinton> macogw: right, but the same cd works in my laptop....
[09:13] <midgewa> jujimufu; i have an HP photosmart 3110, admittedly it connects by USB so i would expect better support, but still
[09:13] <jujimufu> midgewa: well, when I had to choose the location of my printer, I saw my printer on the USB port, connected (so I chose that), and it had the printer's name there, so I chose the printer drivers to match exactly the name of th eprinter.
[09:13] <jujimufu> I have an HP on usb too, dang...
[09:13] <Punkunity> seee and i dont kow the difference between ipod generations
[09:13] <ajax4> crolle17: You made the screenshot from inside the vmware environment?
[09:13] <crolle17> does somebody has experiences with vmplayer?
[09:13] <jujimufu> Punkunity: you could google or check in wikipedia.
[09:13] <crolle17> ajax4 yes
[09:14] <rohinton> macogw: maybe I should try the previous kernel?
[09:14] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, omg konsole :O jesus it's using some resourses
[09:14] <midgewa> jujimufu, thats wierd.. it didnt have exact drivers for mine and it still worked.. i chose the drivers for the 3100, i have the 3110.. makes sense but if u had exact drivers it seems odd to me that it didnt work
[09:14] <ajax4> crolle17: The only way I have found to transfer files from vmware images is to copy them to a network drive or move them onto some removable media.
[09:14] <Punkunity> i am going to get the book Linux For Dummies
[09:14] <midgewa> jujimufu, maybe just try to reinstall the drivers, or choose a different one that's similar
[09:14] <macogw> Punkunity: it doesnt say anything about generations
[09:14] <jujimufu> midgewa: are you using cups?
[09:14] <Punkunity> it says he has a 4th gen
[09:14] <midgewa> jujimufu, if i am, i dont know about it
[09:14] <ajax4> crolle17: I have heard of programs that can mount filesystems from vmware images so you can copy between them but I can't find any in the Ubuntu repositories.
[09:14] <jujimufu> bah
[09:14] <johnt> midgewa; I am downloading beryl and some other stuff do you think I should restart the puter when I get it done?
[09:14] <crolle17> ajax4, a network-drive? how to install one?
[09:14] <macogw> Punkunity: it should be the same on all of them
[09:14] <james12296> Thank you Very Much.... Worked.   Cool.
[09:14] <jujimufu> midgewa: cups is the common unix printer system.
[09:15] <rohinton> macogw: when ubuntu builds do they start with the tool-chain?
[09:15] <jujimufu> *print
[09:15] <midgewa> johnt; beryl dowsnt require you to restart
[09:15] <xushi> anyone please? could you give me a dump of your /etc/nsswitch.conf ?
[09:15] <Oscar> thanks to all for the help, goodnight
[09:15] <crolle17> ajax4, that means some kind of bridge using the network drive, right?
[09:15] <macogw> rohinton: i dont know
[09:15] <midgewa> jujimufu; them i probably am
[09:15] <macogw> rohinton:  does the cd boot at all?  if it doesnt, try reburning it
[09:15] <jujimufu> midgewa: it is the most commonly used, so yeah... but I was just wondering if you were using something else.
[09:15] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: yeah...look at wmaker in windows managers chart
[09:15] <Punkunity> \and i dont know what Mounted means at all, they keep saying that word
[09:15] <macogw> and do an md5 check on the iso before you burn it
[09:15] <mypapit> hi what's the low-latency kernel is good for ? - http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/admin/linux-lowlatency
[09:16] <macogw> Punkunity: mounted means like when you plug something into windows and it goes "you plugged something in!"
[09:16] <corey> heya, whats the name of that cool replacement menu/launcher for gnome that they lifted from novel?
[09:16] <ajax4> crolle17: There are many ways...you could run samba on your linux computer and connect to it, or run file sharing from the vmware image (if its windows). You could also e-mail the file.
[09:16] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, yeah saw that :O
[09:16] <macogw> Punkunity: ubuntu automatically mounts everything like windows does.  it should show on your desktop like it would on a mac
[09:16] <midgewa> jujimufu, i got the printer working on my first day of linux; i was using whatever it came with lol
[09:16] <macogw> corey: that's slab
[09:16] <jujimufu> midgewa: yeah, ok :P
[09:16] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: now to get "beaver" installed: http://debian.cante.net/stem/manual/index.html#additional_light_weight_packages
[09:17] <corey> macogw: thanks pal!
[09:17] <Punkunity> now it is on my desktop what do i do with it, install itunes
[09:17] <midgewa> jujimufu; confirmed, im using cups :P
[09:17] <macogw> Punkunity: there's no itunes on linux.  apple doesnt want anyone to know they're not the only windows alternative
[09:17] <jujimufu> midgewa: ok, thanks :P
[09:17] <macogw> Punkunity: you should be able to use amarok to move files back and forth
[09:17] <crolle17> ajax4, it is windows. do you have a link for working with samba?
[09:18] <macogw> Punkunity: open amarok
[09:18] <Punkunity> ok but i have no songs on linux yet
[09:18] <macogw> Punkunity: click settings > configure amarok
[09:18] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, fspanel is nice
[09:18] <xushi> PLEASE anyone
[09:18] <Punkunity> k
[09:18] <macogw> Punkunity: oh well then you'll need songs to add to it :p but i'm pretty sure it can copy from the ipod to your computer
[09:19] <xushi> all i'm asking is for 10 seconds of your time
[09:19] <james12296> Good night.
[09:19] <jujimufu> xushi: what's the problem?
[09:19] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: that's what i am using now.  i used to use pypanel--it is nicer looking, but wouldn't always load.
[09:19] <macogw> Punkunity: but anyway to get the ipod set up to connect with it, go settings  > configure amarok
[09:19] <ajax4> crolle17: If its just a few small files I would e-mail then from your windows image to an e-mail account that you can check from Linux. Samba is a pain to get set up, at least for me and I have done is several times before.
[09:19] <Punkunity> no songs in ipod and none on computer, will download some now
[09:19] <xushi> jujimufu: can you pastebin me your /etc/nsswitch.conf please so i can compare ?
[09:19] <macogw> Punkunity: then click on the left where it says "media devices"
[09:19] <macogw> Punkunity: and if its plugged in you can try "autodetect devices"
[09:19] <Punkunity> ok ok
[09:20] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, pypanel i just used a little bit, still buggy you say?
[09:20] <macogw> Punkunity: if that doesnt work use "add device" and tell it it's an Apple iPod Media Device (where it says to select a plugin)
[09:20] <Punkunity> said no nnew media devices found try something then something about KDE
[09:20] <jujimufu> xushi: lol, you can just google for that -> http://tinyurl.com/32eb77
[09:20] <crolle17> ajax4, o.k. this time i will e-mail it, but for the future i have to use samba, i think. you have a good link?
[09:20] <midgewa> johnt; correction of myself, you need to restart xorg for beryl to work... to do so, log out and hit [ctrl+alt+backspace] 
[09:20] <macogw> Punkunity: pick the "add device" thing instead of autodetect
[09:20] <Shrimpy_> have you tired songbird?
[09:20] <macogw> Punkunity: and tell it it's an Apple iPod
[09:21] <jujimufu> xushi: the only difference between that one and my file is that my file has hosts:          files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return]  dns mdns4
[09:21] <oldude67> hey i have a blind friend that wants to use linux but his screen reader wont work any suggestions?
[09:21] <macogw> Punkunity: tell it it's called "My IPod" or whtever
[09:21] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: maybe buggy. probably my errors though.  besides, fspanel is smaller--probably.
[09:21] <Punkunity> ok ok
[09:21] <ajax4> crolle17: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/11/20/207251     try that one. Also look for a program called vmware-mount which will do what you want.
[09:21] <Punkunity> did it
[09:21] <jujimufu> oldude67: tell him to buy a braille screen...
[09:21] <xushi> thanks jujimufu. last one, what about /etc/pam.d/common-session ?
[09:21] <gehel_> hello all ! I'm trying to make an iPod with hfsplus partition work. It automagically mounted, but readonly. How can I make it rw ?
[09:21] <macogw> Punkunity: then go to your desktop and right click the iPod symbol, hit properties, click on the "volume" tab, and copy that mountpoint
[09:22] <midgewa> theJokercard; did some research, there is another dock program called kiba-dock that is somehow connected to beryl
[09:22] <jujimufu> xushi: here: session required        pam_unix.so
[09:22] <jujimufu> session optional        pam_foreground.so
[09:22] <midgewa> theJokercard; http://www.kiba-dock.org/
[09:22] <Lopi> hi... i was installed beryl but it dont work...i have ati mobility radeon 7500 without accelerate  and i dont have Direct Rendering... im using open driver... can yiu help me to start beryl?
[09:22] <macogw> gehel_: you have to connect it to a mac and use the "disk utility" and turn off journaling on the ipod
[09:23] <klasrudian> FakeOutdoorsman, he he he well what i remeber of pypanel was it's tendensy to just wanish when it felt like it, and programs that not docking on to it...
[09:23] <midgewa> Lopi, did u restart your computer? or at least xorg?
[09:23] <macogw> Lopi: go to #ubuntu-effects
[09:23] <gehel_> macogw: ok, i'll try that. thanks !
[09:23] <johnt> midgewa; HAH! You were right I am blown away this is neat thanks for your help !!! :-)))
[09:23] <midgewa> johnt; no worries
[09:23] <fsckit> anyone here use qemu and had any problems with cd installs?
[09:23] <Shrimpy_> oldude67: does it plug in via usb?  (sorry i'm not sure what a screen reader is)
[09:23] <Punkunity> now there are 2 drop down boxes with several possible labels at the top
[09:24] <jujimufu> midgewa: so, to get this straight, what happened on your pc when you plugged in your printer?
[09:24] <jujimufu> midgewa: because I plug my printer in (it is on) and nothing happens.
[09:24] <xushi> i think i need to uninstall/reinstall PAM here
[09:24] <ajax4> oldude67: what is a screen reader?
[09:24] <oldude67> shrimpy: its a program that reads the screen for you
[09:24] <macogw> Punkunity: you might actually wanna leave the "mount point" thing alone on amarok and see if it works without it
[09:24] <macogw> Punkunity: on what window?
[09:24] <macogw> Shrimpy_: for deaf people
[09:24] <Lopi> migeva:yes
[09:24] <Shrimpy_> oldude67: ok, is he running linux now? and the screen reader is not working?
[09:24] <Punkunity> oh i thin k amarok froze while folowwing you instructuions
[09:24] <midgewa> jujimufu; nothing happened when i 'just plugged it in', i had to go system>admin>printers and added it, then it detected it, showed me the list of drivers, and from there.. it just worked
[09:25] <Lopi> midgewa:yes
[09:25] <ajax4> oldude67: It's a program that runs on Windows?
[09:25] <oldude67> yes
[09:25] <oldude67> ajax4: yes
[09:25] <Punkunity> it wont even close
[09:25] <ajax4> oldude67: I'm almost certain Linux has an equivalent program. Lemme see what I can find.
[09:25] <Shrimpy_> macogw: i think it's for blind people not deaf
[09:25] <Punkunity> and on the media devices window
[09:25] <oldude67> ajax4: thanks...
[09:25] <midgewa> Lopi, hmmm strange, is beryl selected as the window manager?
[09:25] <macogw> Shrimpy_: hahha er yeah
[09:25] <macogw> oops
[09:25] <macogw> deaf is gally :p
[09:25] <bradf0rdX> Excuse me, after you cd something how do you back out of it?
[09:26] <macogw> bradf0rdX:  cd ..
[09:26] <moDumass> hey all, what is cool and can be done with bluetooth?
[09:26] <Shrimpy_> macogw: lol
[09:26] <xushi> does anyone know the package name for PAM ?
[09:26] <moDumass> i have a USB bluetooth dongle, so far, just sending files to my Mobil
[09:26] <bradf0rdX> macogw, Like, to compile
[09:26] <crabgrass> 7.04 killed my 5-button mouse... anyone know how to get it working again?
[09:26] <Punkunity> how do you close a fozen program
[09:26] <sanityx> bradf0rdX, cd ..
[09:26] <macogw> bradf0rdX: to backup a directory you use cd ..
[09:26] <macogw> Punkunity: go to system > admin
[09:26] <bradf0rdX> macogw, omg, thx
[09:26] <macogw> Punkunity: then system monitor
[09:26] <macogw> Punkunity: and close it from there
[09:27] <FreeMan> Hi all
[09:27] <ajax4> oldude67: Yeah, Ubuntu Linux has a built-in screenreader. You go to the menu and click System > Preferences > Accessibility > Assistive Technology Preferences and just turn it on. From then on it should read all the window text to you.
[09:27] <bradf0rdX> macogw, what's cd stand for anyhow?
[09:27] <ke4nt> yasr?  screen reader?
[09:27] <Punkunity> ok shoukd we start over
[09:27] <Lopi> midgewa: i dont know how make beryl as default window manager
[09:27] <sanityx> bradf0rdX, I think its change directory
[09:27] <jujimufu> midgewa: hm...
[09:27] <dirtydel> where can i get all the commands
[09:27] <bradf0rdX> sanityx, oic
[09:27] <jujimufu> midgewa: I'll try again. So, you're using gnome or kde?
[09:27] <midgewa> Lopi; is the beryl logo showing in your system tray?
[09:27] <miki2> where can I find to fix fiesty because he does not  mount hard disk partitions?
[09:27] <macogw> Lopi: go to system > preferences > session
[09:27] <lgc> Where can I get the latest java things from the Ubuntu site? Can't seem to find it...
[09:28] <midgewa> jujimufu gnome, i think :S
[09:28] <macogw> Lopi: and add "beryl-manager" to the startup tab
[09:28] <midgewa> jujimufu whatever is default with feisty
[09:28] <SoftIce> hi, what package is termcap undr, I can't find it with apt-cache search ?
[09:28] <oldude67> he said he tried that and it just does text
[09:28] <crdlb> !find termcap | SoftIce
[09:28] <macogw> Lopi: then the little jewel will always be there and if you always shut down with beryl running it should always start up with that too
[09:28] <Igor10k> hi every1
[09:28] <jujimufu> midgewa: well, there's Ubuntu and Kubuntu :P one is gnome, the other is kde
[09:28] <ubotu> softice: File termcap found in bash-doc, mindi, minicom, mlterm-common, p3nfs (and 1 others)
[09:28] <jujimufu> midgewa: so, you're pretty new in linux :P
[09:28] <ajax4> oldude67: I will try it out. Hold on.
[09:28] <oldude67> ajax4: he said he tried that and it just reads text not desktop
[09:28] <midgewa> jujimufu well im Ubuntu
[09:28] <equilibrix> anybody developing Java applets in Eclipse? I cant get Applet Viewer to work..
[09:28] <Lopi> ok... i will try... wait please
[09:28] <ajax4> oldude67: what do you mean "just reads text not desktop"?
[09:29] <SoftIce> thanks
[09:29] <crabgrass> 7.04 killed my 5-button mouse... anyone know how to get it working again?
[09:29] <miki2> please I need help
[09:29] <oldude67> ajax: i dont know its what he said...me myself i see fine.
[09:29] <SoftIce> configure: error: *** termcap support not found

[09:29] <ajax4> oldude67: Well if you don't know then I wouldn't know either. Has it been a while since he tried?
[09:30] <miki2> where can I find  how to fix fiesty because he does not  mount hard disk partitions?
[09:30] <macogw> Lopi: beryl-manager
[09:30] <Punkunity> so can i USB 2 ipods of different types at the same time, and do i have to do this whole process everytime i want to put songs into the ipod?
[09:30] <macogw> Lopi: thatll start the manager thing in the notification area
[09:30] <macogw> Punkunity: idk about at the same time
[09:30] <oldude67> ajax4: i think so.....but ill have to get with him and see what hes talking about. and get back with you
[09:30] <macogw> Lopi: if you shut down with beryl being the one you chose in the manager, then it should be the one that starts next time you boot
[09:30] <bradf0rdX> I just dl'd Lm_sensor, and it doesn't do anything when I "./configure"/"make"/"make install"... it said something about "make user" so I did that and it said stop.... am I man handling Ubuntu? I'm a huge nub
[09:31] <Lopi> :)
[09:31] <Lopi> cool
[09:31] <miki2> this chanel is mades
[09:31] <Punkunity> idk? and why does amarok keep freezing, i cant save my changes or anything
[09:31] <miki2> lol
[09:31] <Lopi> i will try... i will be here for a moment
[09:31] <ajax4> oldude67: Accessibility is a huge issue for Gnome and Ubuntu, so I'm certain that it has what he needs...especially if its been a while since he's tried it out. They've improved it immensely over the years.
[09:31] <SoftIce> crdlb: any idea where I can get termcap, as you can see it doesn't work with the minicom install?
[09:31] <Lopi> i can only logout or only restart?
[09:31] <bradf0rdX> I just dl'd Lm_sensor, and it doesn't do anything when I "./configure"/"make"/"make install"... it said something about "make user" so I did that and it said stop.... am I man handling Ubuntu? I'm a huge nub
[09:32] <oldude67> ajax4: thanks...ill look into it..
[09:32] <crdlb> SoftIce: I don't have a clue what termcap is, I was just utilizing ubotu for you :)
[09:32] <benj1> hello everyone... i just had a bit of a problem ... i set up this pc using ubuntu feisty and its working well .. so well that i wanted to switch it to my better monitor (22" DVI widescreen vs 17" CRT) but when i powered down and plugged the better monitor in (as i set the PC up using the 17" CRT in an VGA port) and powered back up again I was unable to see anything. How do i activate my DVI port as the default port for a monitor?
[09:32] <macogw> Lopi: either
[09:32] <sanityx> Oh man, I can't believe VMware Server is in the repos now. That's so amazing.
[09:32] <SoftIce> there should be a package called termcap compat
[09:33] <ajax4> bradf0rdX: configure/make/install is for building your own software from the source code. It is extremely advanced and not at all for beginners. You should install software from the repository only.
[09:33] <macogw> Punkunity: i dont know why its freezing.  is your computer oldish?
[09:33] <FakeOutdoorsman> klasrudian: the Toughbook is now using 21x less memory than my Feisty desktop.
[09:33] <macogw> ajax4: ok, not EXTREMELY advanced, but too annoying for anyone that's not actually going to modify the code to bother with
[09:33] <crabgrass> 7.04 killed my 5-button mouse... anyone know how to get it working again?
[09:33] <Punkunity> pentium 4 with hyperthreading 512 RAM...is that tyoo old now?
[09:33] <Jaymac> Both my friend and I have run Ubuntu on our laptops.... and since last night we can't connect to our WPA enabled network... we can still see it, but it doesn't connect.. however without security enabled, it connects fine... Both on 7.04
[09:33] <Punkunity> like less than 3 yrs old
[09:34] <bradf0rdX> ajax4, what's that mean? What's a repository?
[09:34] <bullgard4> My file /var/log/kernlog.0 lists the line "May  1 06:57:47 MD97600 kernel: [5.036000]  swsusp: Resume From Partition 8:9." What does [ 5.036000]  stand for?
[09:34] <sanityx> bradf0rdX, When you do apt-get install packagename, it retrieves that package from a repository
[09:34] <macogw> bradf0rdX: go to system > admin > synaptic package manager
[09:34] <ajax4> bradf0rdX: it means its a huge library of software already build that you can install with a few clicks of the mouse.
[09:34] <Punkunity> i think i got it applied and working now how do i transfer songs...
[09:34] <mogydy> hi, i want to make an ubuntu  poster to stick on my window, but the company that does the print does not allow me to use the ubuntu logo (copyright), i though that i could use it for personal use. does anybody know where i can ask for permission to use it? thanks
[09:34] <sanityx> bullgard4, Nobody here is going to know that, but google might.
[09:34] <macogw> bradf0rdX: you can mark checkboxes and hit apply and a whole bunch of programs can download and install automatically
[09:34] <macogw> mogydy: you'd have to email the sabdfl
[09:35] <Jaymac> have there been any recent wireless issues?  the only thing i installed last night was the nautilus-open-terminal package...
[09:35] <bullgard4> sanityx: I did google before I posted here.
[09:35] <macogw> Punkunity: youll have to click around and figure that one out yourself. i dont use it
[09:35] <sanityx> k
[09:35] <ajax4> macogw: He should use add/remove if he's a complete noob, don't you think?
[09:35] <crabgrass> 7.04 killed my 5-button mouse... anyone know how to get it working again?

[09:36] <Punkunity> thx for your help macogw
[09:36] <macogw> mogydy: by sabdfl, i mean mark shuttleworth.  i'm pretty sure the copyright crap just all says that if its non-profit and not used to represent non-ubuntu stuff they dont care
[09:36] <sambaa> where can u pls give me link
[09:36] <macogw> ajax4: synaptic's not any harder to use..
[09:36] <macogw> ajax4: its just got a longer list
[09:36] <Shrimpy_> crabgrass: let me check up on it. give me a min or two
[09:36] <macogw> mogydy: sabdfl = self appointed benevolent dictator for life = mark shuttleworth
[09:36] <ajax4> macogw: well plus it leaves out all the libraries, etc.
[09:36] <crabgrass> Shrimpy_: thanks, brb
[09:37] <macogw> ajax4: ok yeah thats true...
[09:37] <ajax4> macogw: can be confusing for beginners.
[09:37] <Jaymac> does anyone know if any recent updates have hosed wpa support?
[09:37] <LinuxHelp> Can anyone read this?
[09:37] <macogw> ajax4: i just use it for searching cuz the synaptic search is a lot nicer than apt-cache search
[09:37] <macogw> LinuxHelp: yes...
[09:37] <Jaymac> LinuxHelp:  yes
[09:37] <bradf0rdX> Well then does anyone know of an application that can tell me how much ram I have where???
[09:37] <LinuxHelp> kthx
[09:37] <macogw> LinuxHelp: why couldnt we read your text....
[09:37] <macogw> bradf0rdX: what do you mean "where"?
[09:37] <Zilus> anyone knows, why i can see networks using $ sudo iwlist eth1 scan, under ubuntu edgy, and not see anything under net-manager-gnome
[09:38] <ajax4> LinuxHelp: Do you have a question?
[09:38] <Zilus> its a bcm43xx under ndiswrapper
[09:38] <macogw> bradf0rdX: if you go to system > admin > system manager it's like the task manager
[09:38] <LinuxHelp> ajax4, Thats was my only question :)
[09:38] <Shrimpy_> crabgrass: ok just give me a message when your back
[09:38] <jujimufu> midgewa: hey, I got it to work! :D
[09:38] <midgewa> Does anyone here run kiba-dock? or know how to? :S
[09:38] <macogw> Zilus: why are you using ndiswrapper?
[09:38] <sanityx> Is there a way to search apt/synaptic by repository?
[09:38] <robert_> so
[09:38] <midgewa> jujimufu; congrats? was it as easy as i said?
[09:38] <sanityx> Like display everything in the commercial repo for example.
[09:38] <robert_> can my friend run a vanilla kernel?
[09:38] <mogydy> macogw: thx, i think i will try other print service providers, i think that Mark is too busy to deal with a small isuee like this :)
[09:38] <sambaa> Jaymac: can u pls give me link
[09:38] <macogw> Zilus: you dont need ndiswrapper for that.  NM doesnt always play nice with ndiswrapper
[09:38] <Rat409> bradf0rdX: try free -m or top in gnome-terminal
[09:38] <Zilus> macd, because bcm cutter didnt work
[09:39] <Zilus> the led came on, but not working
[09:39] <sanityx> Zilus, You mean fwcutter?
[09:39] <SithToast> i have a question about fixing error 22 AFTER grub is loaded
[09:39] <dieh> hi
[09:39] <sambaa> who is bot
[09:39] <bradf0rdX> RAT409, like "Free -m" or "Free top"?
[09:39] <dieh> where can i get help for installing ubuntu
[09:39] <jujimufu> midgewa: thing is, my printer was not psc2300, but deskjet D2360. For some reason, though, on Windows it shows up as HP PSC 2300, and it works properly. So, when I tried to install it here too, it DID show me PSC 2300 connected on the USB drive, but when I chose the PSC2300 driver, it didn't work. So, I chose the Desktop D2300 driver instead, and it worked! :D
[09:39] <odat> hi everyone
[09:39] <Zilus> sanityx, yes
[09:39] <benj1> how do you change the default monitor device to DVI from VGA ports
[09:39] <Rat409> bradf0rdX: free -m another command= top
[09:39] <macogw> bradf0rdX: just "free -m" will show how much is being used in megabytes
[09:39] <odat> anyone know about /proc  ?
[09:39] <sanityx> Zilus, Don't bother, ndiswrapper works great.
[09:40] <macogw> bradf0rdX: "top" will show the top-memory-using programs
[09:40] <sambaa> i am new to ubbutu i was using suse what is change in this two distro
[09:40] <Jaymac> sambaa: x86?
[09:40] <dieh> where can i get help for installing ubuntu
[09:40] <Zilus> sanityx, but I cant get it to work
[09:40] <midgewa> jujimufu, lol sounds simple enough :P
[09:40] <sambaa> yes
[09:40] <Lathiat> benj1: most video cards autodetect that
[09:40] <sanityx> o
[09:40] <ajax4> dieh: Here. What is your question?
[09:40] <Zilus> sanityx, i see networks in command line
[09:40] <sanityx> Zilus, then it works.
[09:40] <dieh> ajax4 can i message u private?
[09:40] <Zilus> but not with network-manager-gnome
[09:40] <Zilus> :(
[09:40] <Jaymac> sambaa: http://mirror.gregstar.at/ubuntu/7.04/MD5SUMS
[09:40] <Zilus> so I cant conect
[09:40] <Jaymac> there you go
[09:40] <Zilus> connect
[09:41] <sambaa> thaks
[09:41] <sambaa> thanks
[09:41] <ajax4> dieh: I'm not registered so I don't think you can. Just ask your question in main channel in case someone else can help also.
[09:41] <Zilus> sanityx, any clue
[09:41] <sanityx> Zilus, ubuntu1501.blogspot.com has a bcm tutorial
[09:41] <benj1> Lathiat: i would have thought that as well but mine didnt ...
[09:41] <bradf0rdX> macogw, Well, I want something to tell me if there are free RAM slots or even what type of ram, is there an application that can do this?
[09:41] <dieh> i am looking to install ubuntu and have no idea. i have windows xp installed already. what do i do. do i partition the harddrive first, if yes, how do i do that
[09:41] <Lathiat> benj1: what kind of card?
[09:41] <macogw> bradf0rdX: open the computer and look inside
[09:41] <ajax4> dieh: Have you already made a bootable Ubuntu CD?
[09:42] <benj1> GF 7300GT
[09:42] <dieh> no, is that the first step
[09:42] <ajax4> dieh: Do you know how to download the Ubuntu cd image (iso file) and burn it?
[09:42] <benj1> whats the way that i can clone a window and all that kinda stuff
[09:42] <dieh> sure, i dont have a cd at the moment, i can download it from the website and burn it
[09:42] <bradf0rdX> I don't want to... this thing's packed full of wires and shit.... owell, off i go
[09:43] <dieh> what do i do after that
[09:43] <jarrett> dieh: yes, the cd should have all the tools you need to partition
[09:43] <sambaa> what is major technical changes in suse and ubnutu
[09:43] <rohan> hi .. anyone received the shipit feisty cd's yet ?
[09:43] <LinuxHelp> dieh, reboot with the cd in your cdrom drive
[09:43] <dieh> oh ok , would i have to install windows after i partition. i dont have the windows cd anymore
[09:43] <ajax4> dieh: Just boot your computer from that CD, after it boots double click the "install" icon...then follow the instructions. The biggest part is how to partition the drives. Does your windows disc have free space on it?
[09:44] <Shrimpy_> rohan: are you a loco team? or did you request a shipment
[09:44] <dieh> yeah, i have about 32gigs free
[09:44] <jarrett> dieh: no, you can dual boot without reinstalling
[09:44] <macogw> partitioning is step 4
[09:44] <dieh> cool thanks
[09:44] <LinuxHelp> dieh, you *might* have to reinstall windows, but hopefully not
[09:44] <dieh> i will download it tomorrow and put it on a dc
[09:44] <dieh> cd
[09:44] <ajax4> dieh: Perfect. The Ubuntu installer will automatically resize your windows partition to make room for the Linux partition.
[09:44] <dieh> i download from here http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download right?
[09:45] <macogw> i think it's easiest to partition THEN install both
[09:45] <macogw> dieh: better to tell them torrent
[09:45] <macogw> the servers are still being pounded and really slow
[09:45] <macogw> torrents are much faster
[09:45] <robert_> bah
[09:45] <dieh> i have no idea what is a torrent
[09:45] <robert_> nobody seems to be paying much attention to me
[09:45] <rohan> Shrimpy_: request a shipment
[09:45] <LinuxHelp> dieh, then go with the link you posted
[09:45] <macogw> dieh: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[09:45] <dieh> cool thanks
[09:46] <macogw> it's a P2P thing
[09:46] <macogw> you need something like bittorrent
[09:46] <Shrimpy_> rohan: yeah, they take a while. just torrent it if you have a fast connection.
[09:46] <dieh> oh ok
[09:46] <Dell-Net> utorrent
[09:46] <macogw> but it will download faster than the server will
[09:46] <macogw> or azureus
[09:46] <Shrimpy_> rohan: i think they take overr four weeks or something
[09:46] <macogw> Shrimpy_: shipits?  6 weeks
[09:46] <ajax4> dieh: The biggest hurdle for new users is partitioning. Let it guide you through the partitioning, and just indicate that you want to have the installer resize your windows partition to make room for Linux.
[09:46] <Dell-Net> dieh u use windows now right ? try utorrent no install just run
[09:47] <rohan> Shrimpy_: on, i am already on ubuntu.. i am just curious to see the cover artwork, and the cd artwork :D
[09:47] <jarrett> robert_: can you repeat your question please
[09:47] <zkeeton> Hi: I was wondering if anyone knows when the CNR Warehouse is supposed to be released (Not that I am a "excited" about it, but I thought it was supposed to be released with 7.04, and it obviously wasnlt)
[09:47] <hikyuu_> -yawns-
[09:47] <Shrimpy_> rohan: haha i'm the same way
[09:47] <robert_> jarrett: sure
[09:47] <hikyuu_> hullo..
[09:47] <hikyuu_> lol
[09:47] <macogw> zkeeton: i dont think we've been told yet
[09:47] <Shrimpy_> macogw: thanks for the correcton
[09:47] <robert_> [02:08:29]  <Leo Kitten> But I want to know what I'll break if I use a stock 2.6.21
[09:47] <hikyuu_> finally got Ubuntu and Beryl working, now just gotta spend a day or  so trying to get games to run
[09:47] <hikyuu_> lol
[09:47] <RichiH> is there a netinstall CD of ubuntu?
[09:48] <zkeeton> hrrmmm....yeah, I guess I assumed it would be launched with Fawn, and was like...hrmmm...where's the difference.  lol
[09:48] <ajax4> gotta go...later guys
[09:48] <RichiH> my problem is, that the pc i am trying to install kubuntu on seems not to cope well with _any_ cd i burn
[09:48] <macogw> RichiH: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot
[09:48] <idefixx> i've just seen a video where a guy is showing of beryl nothing new there, but he has got this very cool looking 'shortcut bar' what the hell is that?
[09:48] <hikyuu_> feels good bieng back on linux, heh, i started out originally on slackware
[09:48] <macogw> RichiH: try wubi
[09:48] <RichiH> i suspect that it is a kernel vs cdrom issue
[09:48] <rohinton> RichiH: I have that same problem, :-( dell 260...
[09:48] <dieh> thanks ajax, linuxhelp, jarrett, macogw, dell-net
[09:48] <macogw> RichiH: it lets you install ubuntu from inside windows
[09:48] <dieh> see ya
[09:48] <robert_> jarrett: now don't go leaving on me
[09:49] <RichiH> macogw: oh?
[09:49] <CheshireViking> over the last few days I've been struggling trying to use a live cd on a Toshiba Equium laptop with no success (Fiesty Ubuntu & Kubuntu, Edgy Ubuntu, Dapper Ubuntu) with little success, the only one that would start was Dapper, all of the others crash during startup - Ubuntu with a gnome daemon error, kubuntu with an error at a similar point, dapper starts & seems to work, but is excessively slow - firefox trys to start, but after 1
[09:49] <hikyuu_> Idefixx i forget the name, but its an old desktop feature that you could DL for windows
[09:49] <CheshireViking> 5 minutes is still not on screen.  I can get to a command line using noapic nolapic boot parameter's, but beyond that, the basic vesa driver doesn't succeed to startx. Last night I tried Mandriva One which started up o, full gnome display, wireless worked, internet worked, does anybody know of a significant difference between Mandriva One Spring edition and Ubuntu that I could try changing in Ubuntu to get it working?
[09:49] <jarrett> robert_: im not sure, looking it up now
[09:49] <robert_> heh k
[09:49] <macogw> RichiH: http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[09:49] <dieh> by the way, is ubuntu a south african product?
[09:49] <rohan> RichiH: yes, there is .. hang on
[09:49] <sanityx> God I love Canonical.
[09:49] <Catball> I had a Feisty Ubuntu question.
[09:49] <hikyuu_> i just like running Beryl, feels real human and functional
[09:49] <RichiH> macogw: just found it, thanks
[09:49] <rohinton> robert_: You should be able to download the kernel and build and test it...
[09:49] <idefixx> hikyuu_: but is nothing beryl specific? or is it a gnome tool?
[09:49] <Catball> This concerns the boot prompt of the LiveCD, and I am blind, relying on the keybaored. So, please. Don't give me instructions that say "click on this or that." My question is,
[09:50] <robert_> that's what I advised her to do
[09:50] <robert_> ah
[09:50] <robert_> here she is
[09:50] <hikyuu_> idefixx explain Beryl specific?
[09:50] <RichiH> macogw: wait, will wubi actually do a real install or will it have linux run within windows?
[09:50] <idefixx> hikyuu_: plugin
[09:50] <robert_> anyway
[09:51] <Catball> Does Ubuntu's boot prompt support cheatcodes? Like: What if I wanted Ubuntu to just log me into a textual console by default on the liveCD instead of the Gnome desktop?
[09:51] <robert_> it's really for Ashiki though
[09:51] <rohan> RichiH: real install
[09:51] <jarrett> robert_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42138 "I've only done one kernel backport, and that was for Warty. It was such a painful and disgusting job that I'd never want to do it again. Backporting kernels is not a smart idea."
[09:51] <hikyuu_> idefixx, well, a couple of tiny things he has in the video were just GUI tools you can hunt and download, i think one is like Kiba or something like that, Beryl is a Desktop manager basically, so its features comprise all of the regular UI features, and Emerald is a theme manager
[09:51] <macogw> RichiH: it makes a dual boot. it can't do it as the only os though
[09:52] <idefixx> hikyuu_: i know what beryl is :) but kiba sound about right.. i think i heard that before.
[09:52] <macogw> RichiH: it makes ubuntu run on the ntfs partition you already have, but you dont boot into windows first to get to it then run vmware or anything like that
[09:52] <hikyuu_> idefixx excuse me for not having a more detailed answer, but im a rather big noob at linux..
[09:52] <idefixx> hikyuu_: thx
[09:52] <hikyuu_> ^^;
[09:52] <hikyuu_> lol
[09:52] <sanityx> Catball, its not knoppix so there are no cheatcodes, however there are some availible boot options. If you'd like a text mode install, please download the alternate-install cd.
[09:52] <hikyuu_> i think they talk about all the extra stuff on Youtube
[09:52] <Trixsey> Guide to install the ATI prop drivers on Feisty?
[09:52] <Trixsey> I dont remember that argument you needed to unpack :/
[09:52] <RichiH> macogw, rohan: so i take it there is not minimal image of a size between, say 20 and 200 MB which i can boot from and which will install a minimal system?
[09:53] <crdlb> Trixsey: what card?
[09:53] <Trixsey> X700
[09:53] <RichiH> preferably from an usb stick
[09:53] <Trixsey> Radeon
[09:53] <macogw> RichiH: there is one. i linked it earlier
[09:53] <hikyuu_> sigh, i just wish i could get BF2142 to work with Cedega 6
[09:53] <sanityx> Trixsey, If you're trying to install the proprietary drivers just use System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager
[09:53] <crdlb> Trixsey: system>administration>restricted manager
[09:53] <hikyuu_> lol
[09:53] <sanityx> Trixsey, It does it automatically for you.
[09:53] <kadakas> How can I tell nautilus to show files starting with the "_" symbol to be shown at the start of the filelist? Currently it just ignores the "_" character and aligns the file by the first alphabetical character found
[09:53] <hikyuu_> it starts, but then dies
[09:53] <jarrett> robert_: so it looks like the best solution to using an older kernel is using the release that came with it to prevent breaking things
[09:53] <macogw> RichiH: go here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot but you said that no cd you burned would work
[09:53] <crdlb> Trixsey: note that your card has /some/ 3d support with the free drivers (enough for beryl+aigl)
[09:54] <crdlb> aiglx*
[09:54] <robert_> what will break if you use a stock kernel?
[09:54] <sanityx> hikyuu_, Is bf2142 on the cedega 6 compatibility list?
[09:54] <macogw> RichiH: the iso links are here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[09:54] <crdlb> but for gaming you need the prop. drivers
[09:54] <Catball> Is there any nox boot options? I don't require a text-mode install. What I am trying to get the CD to do is to boot into a command-line terminal.
[09:54] <hikyuu_> sanityx: yes
[09:54] <Catball> Instead of launching Gnome.
[09:54] <hikyuu_> sanityx: it even has a GDDB for it
[09:54] <sanityx> heh
[09:54] <Trixsey> xorg-driver-fglrx is this the open source driver?
[09:54] <macogw> Catball: can you ctrl alt f1 then kill gdm?
[09:54] <crdlb> Trixsey: no that's the prop. one
[09:54] <rohinton> robert_: I think it depends with what tool chain it was built with - if you are talking a pre-built kernel.
[09:54] <RichiH> macogw: yah, just found it, thanks again :)
[09:55] <Catball> Yeah, I could. Problem is,
[09:55] <hikyuu_> sanityx: its just something to do with my X.org configuration, since SL complains about it too
[09:55] <crdlb> Trixsey: the OSS driver is included by default (xserver-xorg-video-ati)
[09:55] <sanityx> Catball, Not that I know of, however there may be.
[09:55] <Catball> If I  installed Ubuntu onto the hard-drive, I'd have to come up with a permanent way of making sure GDM never would launch.
[09:55] <hikyuu_> sanityx: apparently, even tho i set it to 24bit, i still cant achieve 32bit
[09:55] <sanityx> hikyuu_, oo
[09:55] <crdlb> Trixsey: but if you enable the prop. driver, use the restricted manager, it will make your life easier
[09:55] <LinuxHelp> apt-get remove gdm?
[09:55] <jarrett> robert_: im guessing anything that was written with newer kernel features in mind, could be many things, sorry im not to sure on the specifics and cant really be of much help on that
[09:55] <hikyuu_> sanityx: wich might explain the problem
[09:56] <alvedaro> so to automate something in Linux "cronjobs" are used, but can I setup something to run every 5 or 10 *seconds* ?
[09:56] <JaeSharp> LinuxHelp, arg! be careful with that <g>
[09:56] <Catball> Okay, then I have a second question.
[09:56] <Catball> That is
[09:56] <hikyuu_> sanityx: i might also just be a total retard with linux
[09:56] <hikyuu_> ^^;
[09:56] <JaeSharp> oops, wrong channel <g>
[09:56] <hikyuu_> lol
[09:56] <crdlb> alvedaro: you could use watch
[09:56] <idefixx> hikyuu_: yep it was kiba dock i was looking for
[09:56] <crdlb> watch -n5 command
[09:56] <hikyuu_> thanks idefixx, now i can find it XD
[09:56] <hikyuu_> lol
[09:56] <robert_> rohinton: what about with feisty?
[09:56] <Catball> Is there a root password for Ubuntu's LiveCD? I know I have tot ype sudo all the itme for a root command. I'm wondering how to log myself in as root, if I ever need root access. It is rather annoying typing things like
[09:57] <alvedaro> crdlb, watch *watches* a process AFAIK... I wanna append some text to a file every 10 seconds
[09:57] <LinuxHelp> sudo su
[09:57] <macogw> Catball: why dont you do a server install?
[09:57] <macogw> Catball: the server install doesnt come with gnome
[09:57] <Layer8> hi there!
[09:57] <crdlb> alvedaro: no it runs a command every n seconds
[09:57] <crdlb> any command
[09:57] <alvedaro> crdlb, ok I'll check it :)
[09:57] <Layer8> can someone help me with compiling problems?
[09:57] <alvedaro> crdlb, you saved my life  , thanks :)
[09:58] <hikyuu_> idefixx: link? syntax apt get command?
[09:58] <macogw> Layer8: what are you compiling and why?
[09:58] <hikyuu_> :3
[09:58] <crdlb> Catball: no but you can use sudo -i    for a root prompt
[09:58] <macogw> Layer8: you shouldnt need to compile anything
[09:58] <Catball> I could. What I would probably need to now is:
[09:58] <idefixx> hikyuu_: feisty?
[09:58] <LinuxHelp> Catball, sudo su, then passwd if you want
[09:58] <Layer8> macogw hi! im compiling xmblackberry...
[09:58] <hikyuu_> idefixx: yes im using fiesty, but i could use kiba dock
[09:58] <whine> Hi. I'm an ubuntu newbie. I'm using feisty fawn. I can't get the page-up and page-down keys to work on my dell keyboard with the terminal application. it works with firefox but not terminal. shift-pageup also doesn't. but if i turn on numlock, then shift-pageup works.
[09:58] <Catball> Does the server installation come with SSHd? I found the desktop didn't, I had to sudo apt-get install openssh-server.
[09:59] <hikyuu_> lol robert
[09:59] <jpjacobs> whine, for terminals, use shift-pageup/down
[09:59] <rohinton> robert_: Maybe do a second install and then replace the kernel there... that way you have something to fall back on
[09:59] <phy2> Catball, maybe the server install is what you want, it has no gui from my understanding
[09:59] <dimebar> Catball: I think you need to do that on the server too (afaik)
[09:59] <idefixx> hikyuu_: well no debs until now Trevios got it only for edgy so im still looking.
[09:59] <erikja> !nvidia

[09:59] <robert_> rohinton: that's what I suggested Ashiki do
[09:59] <hikyuu_> idefixx: blast
[09:59] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:00] <whine> jpjacobs: yes, i tried that. shift-pageup/down doesn't work. only numlock+shift+pageup/down. in which case it doesn't work in firefox
[10:00] <CheshireViking> over the last few days I've been struggling trying to use a live cd on a Toshiba Equium laptop with no success (Fiesty Ubuntu & Kubuntu, Edgy Ubuntu, Dapper Ubuntu) with little success, the only one that would start was Dapper, all of the others crash during startup - Ubuntu with a gnome daemon error, kubuntu with an error at a similar point, dapper starts & seems to work, but is excessively slow - firefox trys to start, but after 1
[10:00] <CheshireViking> 5 minutes is still not on screen.  I can get to a command line using noapic nolapic boot parameter's, but beyond that, the basic vesa driver doesn't succeed to startx. Last night I tried Mandriva One which started up o, full gnome display, wireless worked, internet worked, does anybody know of a significant difference between Mandriva One Spring edition and Ubuntu that I could try changing in Ubuntu to get it working?
[10:00] <hikyuu_> idefixx: well i didnt want it anyway >.<
[10:00] <idefixx> hikyuu_: will let you know
[10:00] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:00] <rohinton> robert_: this is probably not the right forum to ask this question... maybe ubuntu+1
[10:00] <macogw> Layer8: whats the compile problem you're having?
[10:00] <idefixx> hikyuu_: hehe
[10:00] <hikyuu_> idefixx thanks
[10:00] <hikyuu_> -plays with the cube-
[10:00] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:01] <hikyuu_> im using a dual core AMD64 4000
[10:01] <whine> is there some setting i need to set in terminal to make it behave like firefox with pageup/down
[10:01] <hikyuu_> it just eats this linux stuff up
[10:01] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:01] <rohinton> robert_: maybe also look at sidux....
[10:01] <Layer8> macogw configure works! but makes shows me errors like: expected =, ,, ;, asm or __attribute__ before * token
[10:01] <macogw> whine: pg up and pg down dont do anything in the terminal i dont think
[10:01] <hikyuu_> i wish i was a giant bucket o.o..
[10:02] <Catball> What file do I tell the kernel to autoload modules? One module I don't want to load all the time manually is the speakup_sftsyn module.
[10:02] <macogw> whine: theyre just not part of it i guess. nothing happens here either.  i think if you use the less command space bar moves you down a page
[10:02] <rohinton> robert_: I assume you want to look at new kernel features? - what's your objective? apart from fun!
[10:02] <whine> macogw: yes, that's what i see. i'd like to get shift-pageup to work without needing to turn on numlock
[10:02] <macogw> Layer8: do you have build-essential installed?
[10:02] <LinuxHelp> Isn't it /etc/modules ?
[10:02] <LinuxHelp> I'm not sure
[10:03] <Layer8> macogw yes its installes
[10:03] <Layer8> d
[10:03] <hikyuu_> idefixx: hey, while we're on the subject of fiesty, how can i get Java to work correctly? i cant get Limewire of Frostwire to run cause they think i dont have JRE, but ive installed it and checked everything
[10:03] <macogw> whine: do you have the kernel headers too?
[10:03] <sanityx> hikyuu_, Forget frostwire. Use bit torrent.
[10:04] <whine> macogw: i don't understand
[10:04] <hikyuu_> sanityx: i do :P, but i cant search for bands with torrent files
[10:04] <Catball> Uh
[10:04] <hikyuu_> sanityx: i like looking around for new material
[10:04] <macogw> hikyuu_: i think you need more repos
[10:04] <sanityx> hikyuu_, Huh? Why can't you search for bands.
[10:04] <macogw> whine: i dont think pg up and pg dn are even part of the terminal
[10:04] <sanityx> hikyuu_, Just browse the music torrents sections
[10:04] <Catball> A lot of people are putting the I before the E in Feisty. LOL
[10:04] <macogw> whine: they dont show in the menus at all
[10:04] <Catball> Making my synth say "Feesty"
[10:05] <hikyuu_> sanityx: you dont find alot of those tho :P, torrentspy does.. but thats about it for me
[10:05] <hikyuu_> macogw: ?
[10:05] <whine> macogw: i just want to make shift-pageup work without hitting numlock
[10:05] <macogw> Catball: at last year's UDS everyone was saying "feesty" cuz they were european
[10:05] <sanityx> hikyuu_, You don't have an oink account do you :-P
[10:05] <sanityx> hikyuu_, http://oink.me.uk/
[10:05] <whine> macogw: it works if i turn on numlock. that's what i would like to not do
[10:05] <hikyuu_> macogw: repoes is greek to me mate ^^; i only know a lil linux
[10:05] <macogw> hikyuu_: i dont think its in the regular ubuntu repositories
[10:06] <macogw> hikyuu_: because it's not "free software" (licensing)
[10:06] <phy2> JAVA --- I installed the 5.0 plugin and run time and it helped me with some other things
[10:06] <hikyuu_> macogw: i c
[10:06] <macogw> hikyuu_: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[10:06] <jpjacobs> whine, are you perhaps using the pageup/down on the numpad?
[10:06] <macogw> hikyuu_: then http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_J2SE_Runtime_Environment_.28JRE.29_v6.0_with_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[10:06] <hikyuu_> cool
[10:06] <whine> jpjacobs: my keyboard only has numpad. no separate pgup/down. and it works properly with firefox
[10:06] <hikyuu_> yall are helpful as hell :3 makes me feel like less of a n00b
[10:07] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:07] <idefixx> hikyuu_: no java expert but as said forget frostwire. you should also make sure to install both jre 6 and 5 (however the actual package is called)
[10:07] <phy2> 5.0 plugin is already in the install manager
[10:07] <hikyuu_> honestly, i wouldnt mind never using JRE again
[10:07] <hikyuu_> its never done me any good
[10:07] <hikyuu_> only caused stuff not to run correctly
[10:07] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:08] <whine> jpjacobs: meaning, with numlock off, pgup/down do the right thing in firefox. but not in terminal. also not shift-pageup/down. the only way to scroll in terminal is if i turn on numlock. if i do that, then it doesn't work in firefox
[10:08] <hikyuu_> :3 i love beryl.. lol, im demoing this for my folks, trying to set them up on ubuntu
[10:08] <hikyuu_> kinda the reason im trying to get limewire to work
[10:08] <oldude67> how can i find what the newest kernel is? and if feisty will add it when its stable?
[10:08] <Layer8> macogw so no further ideas?
[10:08] <hikyuu_> cause my dads too old to use Torrents
[10:08] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:08] <whine> jpjacobs: meaning, with numlock off, pgup/down do the right thing in firefox. but not in terminal. also not shift-pageup/down. the only way to scroll in terminal is if i turn on numlock. if i do that, then it doesn't work in firefox
[10:09] <macogw> oldude67: the newest is 2.6.21 i think.  its not in feisty.  feisty has 2.6.20 which was released in february.
[10:09] <macogw> oldude67: updates for non-security reasons dont usually happen because they introduce bugs
[10:09] <macogw> gutsy should have 22 or 23 though
[10:09] <sanityx> macd, fesity typically doesn't change package versions. and hpefully theyve learned their lesson about changing kernels mid-dstro
[10:09] <LinuxHelp> oldude67, can't you just search on http://packages.ubuntu.com/?
[10:09] <sanityx> or rather ubuntu doesn't
[10:10] <macogw> hikyuu_: so you know, java apps wont look right with beryl
[10:10] <hikyuu_> downloading some Exodus, Agent Steel, and Children of Bodom
[10:10] <sanityx> hikyuu_, eww.
[10:10] <hikyuu_> macogw is that so?
[10:10] <hikyuu_> sanityx: choose your words wisely :P
[10:10] <oldude67> macogw: i knew that i just wanted to know how to find out about the newest and if fiesty will add it or if i will have to do that?
[10:10] <macogw> hikyuu_: there's a workaround thing, but i never got it going....the one i know is adding AWT_TOOLKIT = MToolkit in your .bashrc then always launching from terminal
[10:10] <macogw> hikyuu_: they show solid white...no buttons or anything
[10:10] <whine> i never use num keypad anyway. i wish there was a way to turn it off like in windows so everything works nicely
[10:11] <hikyuu_> odd..
[10:11] <hikyuu_> well, another peer2peer would be nice, if anyone knows of one XD
[10:11] <EmxBA> gtk-gnutella, hikyuu_
[10:11] <hikyuu_> true, i havent played with it yet
[10:12] <hikyuu_> its not familiar anyway
[10:12] <hikyuu_> my dads 48 XD he likes things to be the same and easy
[10:12] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:12] <idefixx> hikyuu_: there're supposed to be some feisty debs on http://www.kiba-dock.org/.. but im to dumb to find them :/
[10:12] <hikyuu_> XD
[10:13] <hikyuu_> thanks idefixx
[10:13] <burnerx> anyone play RoseOnline ?
[10:14] <jedi__> can anyone help me on macbook-isight under feisty???
[10:14] <oldude67> hikyuu: try frostwire if you have your java updated
[10:14] <tdn> Are there any problems upgrading from 6.10 -> 7.04 when using LUKS for enrypted rootfs?
[10:14] <macogw> oldude67: he cant use java apps cuz of beryl
[10:14] <macogw> oldude67:  thats why gtk-gnutella was suggested

[10:15] <halim61> hello
[10:16] <whine> is there an application that will let me assign what key codes are generated when i press the pageup/down on my keypad?
[10:17] <kadakas> Firefox has an "about:config", where's the "about:config" of Gnome ? :P
[10:17] <crdlb> kadakas: gconf-editor

[10:19] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:19] <Skaag> what's a good mail server with database storage of user accounts?
[10:19] <hikyuu_> well, im afk, later all and thanks for the help
[10:20] <z9999> Anyone able to help to get the desktop to restore?

[10:20] <hikyuu_> wtf is a super key?
[10:20] <hikyuu_> O.o
[10:20] <hikyuu_> lol
[10:21] <donkeyofdarkness> A key that unlocks all the doors
[10:21] <jessid> what is a good app to transmit music through internet? i think that is called streamming...?????? thanks!
[10:21] <donkeyofdarkness> as opposed to just one
[10:21] <crdlb> jessid: icecast
[10:21] <bobert> Hi everyone.  quick question to get me started.  im working with VMware v5.5.2.29772.  how do I get that installed?
[10:21] <crdlb> !info icecast | jessid
[10:21] <ubotu> jessid: Package icecast does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[10:21] <ricardo> hola
[10:21] <crdlb> !info icecast2 | jessid
[10:21] <ubotu> jessid: icecast2: Ogg Vorbis and MP3 streaming media server. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.3.1-5 (feisty), package size 263 kB, installed size 728 kB
[10:21] <jessid> crdlb  thanks a lot!!!
[10:21] <halim61> I can not activate dma on my hard disks.
[10:22] <halim61> The chipset is an intel ICH4.
[10:22] <ricardo> para chatear en espaol?
[10:22] <halim61> It seems that the feisty kernel load generic ide drivers before the right ones like piix.
[10:23] <sanityx> Is there any type of plan for which releases will be LTS?
[10:23] <sanityx> Like every 3rd release or something?
[10:23] <bobert> I dont know if anyone has used it before, I was wondering more-so if I could use an installer or if it had to be command line
[10:23] <MoL1> halim61: I have seen the same thing - my laptop is capable of UDAM5, but only running at UDMA2!  hdparm gives an error when trying to alter the dma status!  Anyone here got an idea?
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness> halim61> /dev/cdrom {
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness>     dma = on
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness> }
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness> change cdrom to your hdd
[10:24] <Chetwin> I'm suing ubuntu 6.10 but do not have java6 as an installable option.  Any advice???
[10:24] <Chetwin> using*
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness> Add that to sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/cdrom
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness> sudo cp /etc/hdparm.conf /etc/hdparm.conf_backup
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness> gksudo gedit /etc/hdparm.conf
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness> then reboot
[10:24] <donkeyofdarkness> That should enable DMA
[10:25] <halim61> hdparm could not activate dma
[10:25] <n2diy> Where is my .bashrc file in Dapper?
[10:25] <halim61> I tried hdparm -d /dev/hda
[10:25] <idefixx> hikyuu_: still here?
[10:25] <Chetwin> !java
[10:25] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[10:25] <donkeyofdarkness> did you do sudo first?
[10:25] <SeAofSaRo> hello all
[10:26] <halim61> yes
[10:26] <MoL1> hdparm no longer works now that PATA drives are using a SCSI interface in the kernel.
[10:26] <donkeyofdarkness> odd
[10:26] <halim61> yes but hdparm -t /dev/... show me 4 mb/s
[10:26] <MoL1> halim61: you are not alone with this problem.
[10:27] <MoL1> there is a bug filed on launchpad for this issue under hdparm package
[10:27] <donkeyofdarkness> haven't had dma problems before
[10:27] <halim61> ide_generic was loaded before any chipset drivers
[10:27] <whine> who would have thought that this would be so complicated. looks like i have to learn about scancodes and key board maps
[10:27] <donkeyofdarkness> except I had to enable it manually in breezy
[10:27] <MoL1> No this seems to be feisty-specific with the new 2.6.20 kernel
[10:28] <halim61> This is definetly not a hdparm problem.
[10:28] <halim61> I compiled a new 2.6.21 package with the new libata stuff and all works out of the box.
[10:28] <halim61> but I want to use an official ubuntu kernel!!!
[10:29] <bullgard4> My file /var/log/kernlog.0 lists the line "May  1 06:57:47 MD97600 kernel: [5.036000]  swsusp: Resume From Partition 8:9." What does [ 5.036000]  stand for?
[10:29] <donkeyofdarkness> check and see if there's an update
[10:29] <n2diy> Ok, .bashrc is in my home directory where it should be, why wont gedit play with it? I selected "all files?"
[10:30] <Sp4rKy> hi
[10:30] <whine> hi
[10:30] <MoL1> Thread re: dma issue on the forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=415057
[10:30] <donkeyofdarkness> n2diy> try nano .bashrc
[10:30] <Sp4rKy> does anyone use 1and1 and manage his dns with his own bind ?
[10:31] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: Roger that, but I want gedit to play with the file. I don't want to send newbies into nano/pico land! :)
[10:31] <donkeyofdarkness> lol
[10:32] <Sp4rKy> this fuckin' 1&1 doesn't accept my dns server
[10:32] <orasis> Hello, I would like to know.. what is preferable in Ubuntu if one wants KDE also -- apt-get install 'kde' or 'kubuntu-desktop'
[10:32] <donkeyofdarkness> Try going to run command and see if "gedit .bashrc" works
[10:32] <orasis> ?
[10:32] <shay|work> how would one "awk '{ print $1 }'"  in perl?
[10:33] <orasis> Because I am concerned that if I am to install both 'desktop' versions, perhaps then one of them will be broken...
[10:33] <z9999> Anyone able to help with a broken ubuntu?
[10:33] <orasis> z9999: Depends what is broken ;)
[10:33] <LGKeiz> hay
[10:33] <shric> shay: perl -lane 'print $F[0] ;'
[10:33] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: Yes, that should work, but gedit is already open, I just want to open an other instance of it, with .bashrc.
[10:34] <kadakas> ?upstream
[10:34] <donkeyofdarkness> Are you not able to select it?
[10:34] <kadakas> !upstream
[10:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about upstream - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:34] <kadakas> whats upstream ?
[10:34] <LGKeiz> Okay.. I have a nvidia 16MB and a 165MB card, I was wondering If anyone could help e make my 165MB card my main instead of my 16MB, I have no clue what to do.
[10:34] <whine> here is a picture of the keyboard i am using. http://kbdmania.net/board/data/review/daegak.jpg
[10:35] <orasis> LGKeiz: heh, remove the 16mb physically.
[10:35] <z9999> orasis: no desktop after removing alsa update, and now can only get a terminal screen after running apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[10:35] <LGKeiz> orasis, it's intergated, and it wont come out ;_;
[10:35] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: It isn't displayed in the open file box, i triied selecting all files, and all text files, but it isn't available/
[10:35] <LGKeiz> It's like stuck in the slot
[10:35] <orasis> LGKeiz: Disable it via your bios than.
[10:35] <LGKeiz> That works ;0
[10:35] <donkeyofdarkness> LGKeiz> disable that integrated one in the BIOS
[10:35] <LGKeiz> hopefully, it'll work
[10:35] <LGKeiz> I'll try, bbs :)
[10:35] <LGKeiz> thanks
[10:35] <donkeyofdarkness> LGKeiz> or edit xorg.conf
[10:35] <orasis> l999?
[10:36] <donkeyofdarkness> n2diy> you need to make it show hidden files
[10:36] <z9999> ?
[10:36] <orasis> What you need to do is not install ubuntu desktop..
[10:36] <orasis> z9999: sudo apt-get update ubuntu-desktop
[10:36] <orasis> Try that
[10:36] <donkeyofdarkness> n2diy> anything starting with a "." is a hidden file
[10:36] <rockmead76_> hi
[10:37] <orasis> Because if you install it again.. if it is already installed - it will simply skip all files already installed.. even if they are busted.
[10:37] <z9999> orasis: OK, I'm doing that now.
[10:37] <rockmead76_> i have just installed ubuntu and have a quick question
[10:37] <donkeyofdarkness> n2diy> right click the file list in the open dialog and click "show hidden files"
[10:38] <Jack> I'm having some major issues with my installation of kubuntu 7.04.  I've downloaded and burned the iso 3 times now, from 3 different sites linked from ubuntu.com.  all three iso's have been damaged and don't install correctly.  Anyone know where a working Kubuntu iso torrent is?  or if i might be doing something wrong?
[10:38] <rockmead76_> can anyone answer why add/remove show apps installed but they do not show up in the application menu
[10:38] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: Yes, I'm aware of hidden files and folders, and I know how to show them in Nautilus. Where do I do it in gedit?
[10:38] <kira> how can I boot ubuntu ppc with an ibook? is there a bios setting I need to modify?
[10:38] <orasis> and z9999 if that failes try "apt-get check ubuntu-desktop" - that will check for bad things, and if worse comes to worse.. apt-get upgrade ubuntu-desktop
[10:38] <Catball> Does anyone know of any writen Ubuntu documentation that explains how to install Ubuntu using Orca?
[10:39] <z9999> orasis: Command generates message: "The update command takes no arguments"
[10:39] <donkeyofdarkness> n2diy> file>open>right click the filelist>"show hidden files"
[10:39] <orasis> z9999: Indeed
[10:39] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: Ah, right clicking worked, tnx.
[10:39] <donkeyofdarkness> np
[10:39] <orasis> Try the 'check' option
[10:39] <Hokky> kira: Hold C down when you turn it on. That will make it boot from the CD.
[10:39] <orasis> sudo apt-get check
[10:40] <Jack> i lost connection, did anyone have any ideas on that?
[10:40] <myr> rockmead76_: try system > preferences > main menu and enable the programs you want displayed
[10:40] <donkeyofdarkness> i dun like gnome
[10:40] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: That should be a drop down option from view, like it is in Nautilus.
[10:40] <crdlb> Jack: did you check the md5sum of the iso?
[10:40] <crdlb> if the iso is good, your cd burner may not be
[10:41] <orasis> z9999: --- go here
[10:41] <Jack> md5sum?
[10:41] <orasis> http://www.dharwadkar.com/weblog/ubuntu04/view
[10:41] <orasis> That should work.
[10:41] <kira> ok Hokky
[10:41] <z9999> orasis: It did something but I assume I'll have to power down and reboot to see if it fixed anything?
[10:41] <Jack> (i'm totally new to this)
[10:41] <orasis> z9999: Indeed but first run what it says on that webpage
[10:41] <orasis> Then reboot ;
[10:41] <orasis> ;)
[10:41] <crdlb> !md5sum
[10:41] <ubotu> To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more
[10:41] <Jack> okay, thanks
[10:41] <rockmead76_> brilliant thanks myr
[10:42] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> There's a dropdown option in KDE
[10:42] <Jack> when i checked the last disk for errors at boot, it had 20 file errors
[10:42] <orasis> Alright bedtime, goodluck z9999
[10:42] <z9999> orasis: OK, and thanks.
[10:42] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: KDE, what's that? :)
[10:42] <crdlb> Jack: if the md5sum passes, try burning at a much slower speed
[10:43] <Jack> will do.  i manage to get an install every time, but most things don't seem to work right
[10:43] <Jack> like, i can't add any programs without getting errors
[10:43] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> lol
[10:43] <loekken> I`m using a toshiba computer and reacently installed ubuntu fiesta but my sound card dosen`t seem to respond....? anyone who have a clue why?
[10:43] <crdlb> lol
[10:44] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> you'll find out if you do sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:44] <tripwire> hey guys, is there any reason why beryl works great on edgy, but the gnome panels still look like same old gnome?
[10:44] <crdlb> tripwire: why would they be anyd different?
[10:45] <myr> tripwire: you can change your system theme by system > preferences > theme
[10:45] <tripwire> well I suppose there's something more to it then... I've seen screenshots where the panels look similar to the beryl theme.
[10:45] <tripwire> (whichever beryl theme is selected)
[10:45] <loekken> anyone knows how i can fiks my sound?
[10:46] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: :) Roger on that, the reason I'm trying to find .bashrc in the first place is a guy ran "rm *" on his box, and wonders why it is afu now. I won't be doing any updating.

[10:51] <puccio> Hi, i have ubuntu feisty, and Firefox when launched does not start at all (no output messages on the console)
[10:51] <loekken> LGKeiz: did you get your answer?
[10:51] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: How do you mount a 20g back up?
[10:52] <tapas> LGKeiz: why would you want to?
[10:52] <puccio> i did a reinstall but it does not work
[10:52] <LGKeiz> Because
[10:52] <LGKeiz> I went into my BIOS
[10:52] <tapas> LGKeiz: you can justincrease the font sizes
[10:52] <tripwire> LGKeiz, what video hardware?
[10:52] <LGKeiz> no the windows are hugged
[10:52] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: I can't back up 20g here
[10:52] <myr> mindspark: sorry i havent used xubuntu, i dont know
[10:52] <MindSpark> ok, second question, does Ubuntu support WPA through the desktop apps ? or do I hav to work with CLI wpa_supplicant/wpa_passphrase
[10:52] <LGKeiz> nVidia Geforece MX 4000
[10:52] <LGKeiz> Force *
[10:52] <LGKeiz> I disabled my other one in BIOS

[10:52] <tapas> LGKeiz: what do you mean by "hugged"?
[10:52] <LGKeiz> huge *
[10:52] <learnin9> puccio: Open you termail,and exec firefox
[10:52] <tapas> LGKeiz: i don't understanf the problem
[10:52] <z9999> I'm still unable to get a desktop, anyone else care to help?
[10:52] <LGKeiz> Like.. the Resolution is huge *
[10:52] <MindSpark> myr, thanks anyway, I am grepping through my /etc dir
[10:53] <LGKeiz> hold on.. let me take a screen shot
[10:53] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> I have a G3 with 3 hard drives in it. It's running the server edition
[10:53] <tapas> LGKeiz: you you mean the resolution is small [a.k. pixels are big] 
[10:53] <tripwire> myr, thanks. Looks like the info I need.
[10:53] <[miles] > good morning #ubuntu
[10:53] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: Ok, RAID, and hot swapping?
[10:53] <MindSpark> myr, /etc/lsb-release
[10:53] <loekken> z9999: can`t get a desktop?
[10:53] <puccio> learnin9, I did it, it does not start
[10:53] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> that's where I put all my extra stuff to make room
[10:53] <chequers> !root
[10:53] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:53] <[miles] > guys, I'm having problems with apt-proxy... it's allows clients (feisty) to update fine via it, yet it fails to get the headers on edgy clients... any ideas pleae?
[10:53] <myr> mindspark, thx for the info
[10:53] <learnin9> puccio:please output these messages
[10:54] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> nah. just 3 different samba shares
[10:54] <learnin9> puccio:U can try opera
[10:54] <tripwire> LGKeiz, you need to change the screen resolution settings in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:54] <z9999> loekken: That's what I'm here trying to find out also. All I can do is get a terminal screen now.
[10:54] <arejay> any democracyplayer users in here? Wondering if anyone has sound working in feisty with it.
[10:54] <puccio> learnin9, there are no output messages.
[10:54] <tripwire> If you have an nvidia card, I can help you
[10:54] <tapas> tripwire: he's still off
[10:54] <RudyValencia> hey, is this the place to send praises?
[10:55] <myr> opera rocks but it's not open source :/
[10:55] <MindSpark> Does Ubuntu support WPA through the desktop apps ? or do I hav to work with CLI wpa_supplicant/wpa_passphrase
[10:55] <puccio> learnin9, but the process is up 7409 18.7  1.5 117796 32048 pts/0    Sl+  10:54   0:02 /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin
[10:55] <tripwire> ah
[10:55] <Ramunas> myr: that doesn't mean that they are any worse...
[10:55] <tapas> tripwire: i reckon yu don't use auto nick completion in your irc client?
[10:55] <tapas> ;)
[10:55] <Ramunas> anyway, I'm back with my problem.
[10:55] <puccio> learnin9, some days ago it was working
[10:55] <myr> mindspark, pretty sure it supports wpa and wep
[10:55] <learnin9> puccio,you can delete some plugins
[10:55] <MindSpark> myr, I know it does, but I am not sure how to set it up
[10:56] <Ramunas> after installing kde font anti-aliasing has been borked, how do I fix it?
[10:56] <myr> ramunas: true, thats ywh i use opera
[10:56] <asdf> seems mirc died lol
[10:56] <asdf> http://img85.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotht2.png
[10:56] <loekken> z9999: oh hm well i had to reinstall but hope there other ways...
[10:56] <asdf> thats what I meant
[10:56] <puccio> learnin9, i deleted the $HOME/.mozilla dir
[10:56] <RudyValencia> I just want to say I <3 ubuntu, my server runs on 6.06.1 LTS
[10:56] <tripwire> by the way, this GL accelerated desktop thing is years ahead of anything I've ever seen
[10:56] <Ramunas> myr:  me too ;)
[10:56] <tripwire> I love it.
[10:56] <LGKeiz> loekken: http://img85.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotht2.png
[10:56] <puccio> learnin9, what can I delete to "clean" it ever more?
[10:56] <RudyValencia> (the server version)
[10:56] <tapas> LGKeiz: run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:56] <tapas> or something similar
[10:57] <Ramunas> screenshot of my problem: http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png
[10:57] <Ramunas> could anybody help me?
[10:57] <z9999> loekken: That's why we went with Linux instead of Windows, trying to avoid reinstalls.
[10:57] <tripwire> tapas: what is auto nick completion?
[10:57] <donkehofdarkness> I need to find a new distro for my G3 since ppc isn't supported any more
[10:57] <tripwire> I don't use IRC that much.... don't know what you're talking about
[10:57] <tapas> tripwire: i press "tr" then tab, and magically "tripwire" appears if you are in the channel
[10:57] <n2diy> donkeyofdarkness: Roger on Samba, minimal experience with that. I'm playing with Mondo and Mindi for backing up a 10g drive now, but no joy so far. But they are a work in progress, so I should give them a try again. But, even if I get them working, I'm still looking at 15 CDs to back up a 10g drive. Reminds me of the old days backing up with floppies.
[10:57] <tapas> tripwire: like the bash auto completion for file names
[10:57] <loekken> LGKeiz: hm do the driver to your graphic card work?
[10:57] <tripwire> ah, ok
[10:57] <RudyValencia> what's the reson for long-term support in v6.06 "dapper"?
[10:57] <learnin9> puccio,nono!you should delete /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/* ,and try again
[10:57] <tripwire> like CLI auto completion
[10:58] <tapas> righto
[10:58] <tripwire> cool
[10:58] <z9999> loekken: I started out a few days ago just trying to get the microphone to record, and now nothing works.
[10:58] <learnin9> puccio,do not forget backup it
[10:58] <RudyValencia> (in other words, why is it supported until 2010?)_
[10:58] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> What about DVD?
[10:58] <tapas> tripwire: if it doesn't complete to what you expected you know the person isn't there ;)
[10:58] <LGKeiz> ok
[10:58] <LGKeiz> what do I do now?
[10:58] <loekken> z9999: sure but I installed mine that way that`s why i had to reinstall.... was careless in the proses....
[10:58] <tapas> LGKeiz: didn't i tell you
[10:58] <Ramunas> screenshot of my problem: http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png can anybody help me with this?
[10:58] <puccio> learnin9, can I just rename the dir instead of deleting it?
[10:58] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> Or external USB hdd
[10:58] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: I don't have one.
[10:58] <mogydy> hi, together with some friends we would liek to start local ubuntu site (Morocco) does anybody know where i can find the Ubuntu site theme (i think it is using drupal)? thanks
[10:58] <learnin9> yes
[10:58] <tapas> LGKeiz: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:58] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: I don't have one of them either.
[10:58] <zack> hey how do you get the new network applet with feisty fawn to show connection info? right click shows it as greyed out
[10:59] <Gskellig> hey its LGkeiz.
[10:59] <learnin9> puccio,yes,try it!
[10:59] <LGKeiz> I did.
[10:59] <Gskellig> recognize you from somewhere
[10:59] <LGKeiz> hey it's person.
[10:59] <LGKeiz> RZ
[10:59] <myr> MindSpark,  have you looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo ?
[10:59] <Gskellig> gunz?
[10:59] <LGKeiz> yes.
[10:59] <LGKeiz> I run legacygamers <_<>
[10:59] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> sucky
[10:59] <tripwire> tapas: how did you know i didn't use that
[10:59] <loekken> z9999 did you have normal screen before?
[10:59] <Gskellig> good server ^_^
[10:59] <LGKeiz> tapas: I did.
[10:59] <tapas> tripwire: 'cause i'm telepathic ;)
[10:59] <puccio> learnin9, a pop up appeared saying that the previous execution closed badly. But now it does not start
[10:59] <tripwire> heh
[10:59] <tripwire> good job
[10:59] <tapas> tripwire: nah, because you wrote LGKeiz although he wasn't in the channel ;)
[10:59] <tripwire> ah
[10:59] <puccio> learnin9, i have no .mozilla and no plugins dir... I don't know what to try else..
[10:59] <learnin9> puccio,I think these error is made by some plugins
[11:00] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> I've got a total of 9 hard drives
[11:00] <tapas> LGKeiz: and? did it ask you for your monitor etc detils?
[11:00] <puccio> learnin9, could it be some java6 mozilla plugin?
[11:00] <MindSpark> myr, yes
[11:00] <tripwire> thought you were clairvoyant
[11:00] <tapas> lgc: don't forget to restart x afterwards
[11:00] <zack> 'look at me i have 9 hard drives'    <-- 80 gigs each?  ;) he he
[11:00] <MindSpark> but it's still not working
[11:00] <tapas> LGKeiz: i meant you
[11:00] <tapas> lgc: soz
[11:00] <z9999> loekken: Not being Linux savvy I have to rely on the advice from others and try to follow it to a tee, Everything was working fine except for the microphone until I asked for help in ALSA and when problems arose I was directed here.
[11:00] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> I'm thinking about getting a couple of 500GB firewire drives for my g3
[11:00] <learnin9> puccio, hehe ,i do not know
[11:01] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: look at my nick, I'm a ham radio operator, which is mean I'm a trash picker! I DONT by stuff. This box is a dual PII 333mhz machine.
[11:01] <learnin9> i think you should reinstall firefox
[11:01] <LGKeiz> For the X Windows System Graphic blah blah
[11:01] <LGKeiz> And then it saids
[11:01] <sanityx> donkehofdarkness, I hate you.
[11:01] <learnin9> dpkg -e firefox
[11:01] <LGKeiz> X Server driver
[11:01] <LGKeiz> and there is list
[11:01] <enjoi> dual p3 333mhz is freakin fast
[11:01] <loekken> z9999: what did you do to try and fix your mic then?
[11:01] <enjoi> ow p2
[11:01] <zack> hey how do you get the new network applet with feisty fawn to show connection info? right click shows it as greyed out
[11:01] <Gskellig> he said p2
[11:02] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: by/buy
[11:02] <LGKeiz> tapas
[11:02] <LGKeiz> do I just go step by step
[11:02] <LGKeiz> I selected nvidia
[11:02] <LGKeiz> and then it asks for a name
[11:02] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> I steal a lot of stuff. I got a friend that works at a high school.
[11:03] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: Steal, or dumpster dive?
[11:03] <tapas> LGKeiz: well, use any name
[11:03] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> they have a huge computer budget
[11:03] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> some of it is stuff they're planning to get rid of
[11:03] <oldude67> donkehofdarkness: so do hospitals :D
[11:03] <LGKeiz> Viceo Card bus identification number?
[11:03] <LGKeiz> ehh?
[11:03] <LGKeiz> Video *
[11:03] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: And why the huge budget? Bug #1?
[11:03] <tapas> take the default
[11:04] <LGKeiz> amont of memory KB
[11:04] <LGKeiz> what about that :p
[11:04] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> dunno. the school has lots of money.
[11:04] <tapas> wll be autoprobed
[11:04] <LGKeiz> use kernal freambuffer device?
[11:04] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: Yea, I know that, and it is called our money!
[11:04] <LGKeiz> frame *
[11:04] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> In a couple of years they're going to stop using paper there and do everything on laptops.
[11:04] <LGKeiz> sorry It's hard to type with this big windows thing
[11:04] <zack> one other thing - amarok global shortcuts seem to be conflicting with gnome shortcuts
[11:05] <zack> how do i get them to work?
[11:05] <LGKeiz> do I select yes or no
[11:05] <tapas> LGKeiz: i always build my own kernels without framebuffer
[11:05] <z9999> loekken: In the ALSA channel they laughed at me and told me I had to install the latest release candidate in order to get the mic to work, and directed me to the wiki for instructions, which I followed, and initially thought it worked, except I had 5 mic sliders. I then asked instructions on how to undo the update and get back to the previous ALSA version, and the instructions given left the...
[11:05] <z9999> ...system unbootable. From that point it became a distro problem they said and now all I have is a terminal screen.
[11:05] <tapas> LGKeiz: try n yes, cause i suspect ubuntu uses the framebuffer
[11:05] <LGKeiz> so no?
[11:05] <tripwire> so I installed Ubuntu edgy last night, and managed to update it and get beryl working on it. Unfortunately, I couldn't get twinview to set my 2nd monitor higher than 640x480 (useless). After a few hours of screwing around with it, I figured out that the nvidia "readme" was way off, and that nvidia's display utility was looking for the wrong information in xorg.conf. Also, it couldn't overwrite xorg.conf with anything since it didn't have p
[11:05] <LGKeiz> o.o ok
[11:05] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: Yea, and we will walk on the moon again, four decades after the first time.
[11:06] <donkehofdarkness> n2diy> I don't think they ever really went to the moon
[11:07] <tapas> lgkok, gotta run, you'll figure it out
[11:07] <LGKeiz> xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration
[11:07] <LGKeiz>    file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20070502040646
[11:07] <tapas> LGKeiz: that was for you
[11:07] <LGKeiz> >_>;
[11:07] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: Really, this could get off topic in a hurry!?
[11:07] <donkehofdarkness> lol
[11:07] <LGKeiz> do I just replace it, thanks anywas -.-;
[11:08] <zack> yo, hate to be a pain, but does anyone know anything about either amarok or the network applet in feisty??????????/
[11:08] <donkehofdarkness> LGKeiz> try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:08] <Tehkain> Hello does anyone know if its normal that when I open nautilus it take 5 seconds and spikes one of my cpus to 100%?
[11:08] <loekken> z9999: damn.... well do you think you could have "undid" to much maybe deleted thinks you shouldn`t have? and by the way don`t bother the laughing no question are to stupid:) that`s how you learn after all:)
[11:09] <z9999> loekken: Obviously deleted too much, but I typed the commands exactly as given.
[11:09] <donkehofdarkness> Tehkain> sounds normal
[11:09] <zack> *sigh*, ok i'll come back when the love fest is over
[11:09] <donkehofdarkness> Tehkain> Do you have the SMP kernel installed?
[11:09] <loekken> Yes but maybe they gave you the wrong commands because of misunderstanding? maybe?
[11:10] <donkehofdarkness> Tehkain> That would give you a speedup
[11:10] <oldude67> in general after seeing all the problems that everyone has had with linux, im glad i built a new machine that is ubuntu supported, now i just hope i dont get lost with programs.
[11:10] <n2diy> donkehofdarkness: I'm running SMPs, so I can play in this game.
[11:11] <Catball> Is there a file something like /etc/local.start where you can run commands like: speechd-up -t or whatever manually? Where the systemruns them/? Or what.
[11:11] <shuweitian> ls
[11:11] <tripwire> hell, from what I've seen with linux over the years, there's a hundred different commands to get the same thing done on different systems. So which one is the "right" command
[11:11] <Tehkain> donkehofdarkness, I use the generic. I meant cores when I said cpus.
[11:11] <donkehofdarkness> Tehkain> Yeah, you should use the SMP kernel to take advantage of both cores
[11:11] <NET||abuse> ffs.... I have a really serious wifi issue with my machine here... this thing just won't stop dissconnecting
[11:12] <NET||abuse> i'm litterally 5 feet from the wifi router, it's not signal related at all.
[11:12] <NET||abuse> it's happening in various wifi points so it's definatley my connection/software
[11:12] <Tehkain> donkehofdarkness, Thanks looking into it now.
[11:12] <n2diy> tripwire: there is no "right" command, just the one that works for you.
[11:12] <loekken> z999: do you have any idea why my sound won`t work?
[11:12] <z9999> loekken: The undo commands were essentially the same as the ones used to install make install became make uninstall for the three packages that they had me install.
[11:12] <NET||abuse> i'm using an ahterose chip, and the damn thing just won't stop disconnecting
[11:12] <tripwire> n2diy: right about that...
[11:12] <NET||abuse> can anyone point me in the direction of a fix for this F***ing problem... arrgh, it's just gone again before i got to finish that sentence
[11:12] <loekken> z999: hmm weird... are you in a linux forum online?
[11:12] <z9999> Areloekken: Are you having sound output problems?
[11:13] <n2diy> tripwire: 10-4 :)
[11:13] <loekken> z999: yeah my card wont work
[11:13] <z9999> loekken: I frequent the ubuntu forums and often get excellent results there, but came here as I would like to resolve the problem more quickly.
[11:14] <loekken> z999: use the private chat:)
[11:14] <fadey> Hi, everyone. I'm having a problem installing libsnmp-base on Feisty? I'm getting a "post-installation script returned error code 1"
[11:15] <redDEAD> i have a 250GB drive with Ubuntu and a 60GB with XP how do I tell Grub to load into xp?
[11:15] <z9999> loekken: I've never had problems with sound output, but have noticed numerous posts on the forum often related to checking the mixer gui to assure that nothing is muted and the volume sliders are maxed.
[11:15] <asdf> It worked
[11:15] <asdf> ;)
[11:15] <loekken> z9999 i did but think it`s the driver.....
[11:16] <donkehofdarkness> redDEAD> edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:17] <donkehofdarkness> redDEAD> title		Wind0ze NT/2000/XP (loader)

[11:17] <redDEAD> donkehofdarkness, thanks'
[11:18] <z9999> loekken: What kind of system are you running?
[11:18] <MindSpark> http://www.peachstone.net/index.php?action=view&id=16&module=imagemanagermodule&src=%40random44ab99747b611
[11:18] <MindSpark> that's my screenshot
[11:18] <loekken> z9999: ubuntu feisty.....
[11:18] <MindSpark> slightly modified xubuntu
[11:19] <NET||abuse>  F**ing machine,, my laptop wireless is a mess,, goddamn atheros based chip, it flipflops from connected to disconnected every minute or so. someone on a forum said it was to do with "iwpriv ath0 bgscan 0" and that would prevent background channel scans from forking your connection, but i've done that and still get the same issue.. and it just locked up my machine a second ago.l.... soooooooooooooo angry with this now..
[11:19] <MindSpark> NET||abuse, try to run dhclient manually
[11:19] <MindSpark> and bypass Ubuntu's network tools
[11:19] <NET||abuse> ??
[11:19] <MindSpark> I had the same issue yesterday and this fixed it
[11:20] <NET||abuse> oh.. i see..
[11:20] <z9999> loekken: I'm using 6.06, and was told to move to feisty to solve my problems, but it's a friends computer and he's out of the country and left telling me not to change to 6.10 or feisty.
[11:20] <NET||abuse> hmm,
[11:20] <MindSpark> su
[11:20] <NET||abuse> MindSpark, iwconfig essid [netname] 
[11:20] <MindSpark> then type "dhclient <int>"
[11:20] <MindSpark> yea, you can do that
[11:20] <NET||abuse> MindSpark, <int> ????
[11:20] <loekken> z9999: oh... well feisty are pretty good:)
[11:20] <MindSpark> but if it is already all set
[11:20] <MindSpark> depends on how many interfaces you have
[11:21] <gosc> asd
[11:21] <gosc> siema
[11:21] <MindSpark> for example I have eth0 as wired
[11:21] <gosc> hello
[11:21] <MindSpark> and eth1 for the wireless interface
[11:21] <MindSpark> youd have to check
[11:21] <NET||abuse> MindSpark, nope, ath0
[11:21] <MindSpark> iwconfig
[11:21] <MindSpark> ok, then ath0
[11:21] <MindSpark> never heard of that before
[11:21] <MindSpark> but give it a try
[11:21] <MindSpark> dhclient ath0
[11:21] <NET||abuse> MindSpark, atheros chip
[11:21] <MindSpark> in root
[11:21] <MindSpark> ok...
[11:22] <MindSpark> watcha think of my desktop ?
[11:22] <MindSpark> http://www.peachstone.net/index.php?action=view&id=16&module=imagemanagermodule&src=%40random44ab99747b611
[11:22] <z9999> loekken: Have you checked out the ubuntu forums? They had numerous posts related to audio output which I ignored as my audio out has always worked, and there are some "How To's" that often are very good. I found one that fixed our wireless which we had about given up on.
[11:23] <z9999> loekken: I usually don't give any advice if I am not certain it would work as I don't wish to leave someone in a similar situation to the one I'm having now.
[11:24] <AnAnt> how can I change the splash image ?
[11:24] <AnAnt> !splash
[11:24] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[11:25] <AnAnt> !gnome-splashscreen-manager
[11:25] <tripwire> tapas: thanks for the info on the GTK2 themes. I found some that had matching GTK2 and beryl themes, looks great
[11:25] <tripwire> (new to this)
[11:25] <halim61> how can I delete Password saved under gnome E. G. adminstratoion apps
[11:25] <donkehofdarkness> fdisk
[11:26] <donkehofdarkness> lol
[11:26] <loekken> z9999: hmm okey thanks anyway:)
[11:27] <loekken> what media players have the best codex?
[11:27] <halim61> xine / mplayer
[11:27] <TeePOG> vlc
[11:27] <donkehofdarkness> VLC and mplayer play just about everything
[11:28] <z9999> loekken: I prefer VLC player which is the one I use in Windows.
[11:28] <kolla> anyone know how I can prevent udev from loading a certain kernel module on bootup?
[11:28] <donkehofdarkness> I use amarok and kaffeine
[11:28] <loekken> z9999 someone told me it didn`t work in linux....
[11:29] <TeePOG> VLC is awesome, whether in Windows or Linux... it uses a sandbox mode, so a corrupt video file tends not to crash your whole system
[11:29] <donkehofdarkness> VLC was made for linux
[11:29] <AnAnt> I have a problem in Feisty, it doesn't mount MMC cards, I get this in dmesg: mmcblk0: unknown partition table . those MMC cards used to be read on Edgy without problem, can anyone help ?
[11:29] <z9999> loekken: We installed it from the pkg mgr on the system that I'm trying to get up now.
[11:30] <bullgard4> My file /var/log/kernlog.0 lists the line "May  1 06:57:47 MD97600 kernel: [5.036000]  swsusp: Resume From Partition 8:9." What does [ 5.036000]  stand for?
[11:30] <donkehofdarkness> There's also totem
[11:30] <loekken> z9999: h? kinda new in linux here dude:P
[11:31] <z9999> loekken: That's right, I've DL'd videos before that were missing parts but was able to play them with an occasional skip.
[11:32] <kaan_nl> hello room
[11:32] <donkehofdarkness> The default stuff that comes with ubuntu should play just about everything. You just need to install support for mp3, wma, mov, and rm.
[11:32] <donkehofdarkness> and then install libdvdcss
[11:32] <nir_ai_> hello, how do I modify the default application used to open a file?
[11:32] <nir_ai_> for example a text file.
[11:33] <coNP> I have an Asus p5gz-mx and try to run Ubuntu. I can boot the 64 bit Feisty alternate install cd but the cd does not get recognized during the install. How could I fix this?
[11:33] <loekken> z9999: yes but how do i install Vlc to linux?
[11:33] <halim61> aptitude install vlc
[11:34] <coNP> nir_ai_: right click on the file in nautilus, choose the properties dialog and the open with tab
[11:36] <donkehofdarkness> here's my linux blog if anyone is interested http://donkeynet.blogspot.com/
[11:37] <mne> hi, i'm just writing a bash script. what is the easiest way to get the relative filename out of an absolute path ?
[11:38] <mne> so for example i have a path "/blah/some/directory/file.txt" and I would like to get out the "file.txt"
[11:38] <halim61> is the file allways in the same directory?
[11:38] <nir_ai_> coNP, thanks, it works except in my specific case. I am trying to set .php files to open with gvim. if I set it to another editor such as the blue-fish it works, if I set it to gvim, I get a complaint about the contents of the file...
[11:39] <mne> halim61: no.
[11:39] <z9999> loekken: I just used the synaptic pkg mgr.
[11:39] <crdlb> mne: you could use sed to make the / into spaces and use awk to get the last string
[11:39] <crdlb> there's probably an easier way though ;)
[11:39] <mne> crdlb: good idea
[11:39] <donkehofdarkness> or do cd first
[11:41] <loekken> z9999: okey:)
[11:42] <donkehofdarkness> lol. THis is fun
[11:42] <donkehofdarkness> cd / && find . -depth -print0
[11:43] <n2diy> How do I request Dapper CDs from Shipit?
[11:43] <mwe> -depth? doesn't that need to be -depth something?
[11:44] <donkehofdarkness> I think it's basically the same as recursive
[11:44] <mwe> no I'm thinking of -maxdepth
[11:44] <mwe> yes
[11:44] <nir_ai_> there seems to be a problem with nautilus and .php (mixed with html) files!
[11:44] <nir_ai_> nautilus lists them as html types
[11:45] <z9999> loekken: Good luck with your audio problem, and maybe we'll meet again. I need to leave for a while.
[11:45] <nir_ai_> if I set them to open with gvim, then nautilus shouts that there is a conflict between the extension and the contents of the file
[11:45] <mwe> Process each directorys contents before the directory itself. Whatever that means
[11:46] <loekken> z9999: c ya m8
[11:47] <nick01> hi - anybody from Romania here ?
[11:49] <ringe> How do I remove system-config-network (manual) configuration to re-activate networkmanager?
[11:49] <Tomcat_> !ro | nick01
[11:49] <ubotu> nick01: Daca doriti ajutor sau doriti sa discutati despre Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu, intrati pe #ubuntu-ro
[11:49] <nick01> Tomcat_: tks but its a bit empty there
[11:49] <nir_ai_> there is a bug with nautilus
[11:49] <Tomcat_> nick01: I'm pretty sure that if there were Romanian people here, they'd be there as well. ;)
[11:49] <foxiness> am tried to kill process but itsn't get killed,what can i do to end it?
[11:50] <nick01> k
[11:50] <nir_ai_> where does nautilus store the "open with" settings?
[11:50] <Tomcat_> foxiness: Did you try kill -9?
[11:50] <foxiness> nir_ai_: gconf
[11:50] <foxiness> Tomcat_: no just killall and kill xxxx
[11:51] <donkehofdarkness> for gui apps, I do xkill
[11:51] <Tomcat_> foxiness: Good, then try kill -9 :)
[11:51] <Tomcat_> foxiness: kill only tells the app to shut down... but if it's zombied already, only -9 will make the kernel kill it.
[11:51] <nir_ai_> foxiness, there are several gconf folders, which one?
[11:52] <mne> crdlb: do you know how i can access the last string with gawk ?  (i already split up the string using sed)
[11:52] <foxiness> nir_ai_: you said where :) and here my know.... end
[11:52] <crdlb> mne: you could probably do the whole thing with sed
[11:53] <CheshireViking> over the last few days I've been struggling trying to use a live cd on a Toshiba Equium laptop with no success (Fiesty Ubuntu & Kubuntu, Edgy Ubuntu, Dapper Ubuntu) with little success, the only one that would start was Dapper, all of the others crash during startup - Ubuntu with a gnome daemon error, kubuntu with an error at a similar point, dapper starts & seems to work, but is excessively slow - firefox trys to start, but after 1
[11:53] <CheshireViking> 5 minutes is still not on screen.  I can get to a command line using noapic nolapic boot parameter's, but beyond that, the basic vesa driver doesn't succeed to startx. Last night I tried Mandriva One which started up o, full gnome display, wireless worked, internet worked, does anybody know of a significant difference between Mandriva One Spring edition and Ubuntu that I could try changing in Ubuntu to get it working?
[11:53] <foxiness> Tomcat_: clear thanks
[11:53] <mne> crdlb: thank you. I'm not that familiar with sed and awk
[11:54] <Trixsey> Hey, I tried 2.6.20-15 and activated the prop. driver in System>Restricted>RDM.. after reboot my screen just died.. what do I do? had to go back to -14 to get in again
[11:54] <tripwire> man, neutronium looks great
[11:54] <tripwire> thanks for the help guys
[11:54] <foxiness> Tomcat_: wow its killed ,thanks a lot man :)  u are my hero of this week
[11:54] <Tomcat_> lol :)
[11:54] <stefg> Trixsey: what video-card?
[11:55] <donkehofdarkness> awk
[11:55] <Trixsey> stefg, Radeon X700
[11:55] <enjoi> is it possible to run bitchx / irssi as a bouncer
[11:55] <enjoi> and is it possible that xchat or mirc can logon to them
[11:56] <donkehofdarkness> try reading through man awk
[11:57] <stefg> Hmm... ati. Just as a genric hint: -14 was still a development kernel. it might help if you sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic, to make sure that not only the prop. driver for the running kernel gets updated, but for subsequent kernel updates, too
[11:58] <mne> crdlb: lol. i found "basename" that exactly does what i want ;) no need for sed and awk ;)
[11:59] <crdlb> mne: lol I figured it out though :)   pwd|sed 's/\// /g'|awk '{print$NF}'
[11:59] <mne> crdlb: good to know. i was looking for that '{print$NF}'
[11:59] <mne> crdlb: thank you
[11:59] <kaolti> hey i have a problem sharing internet connection to a winxp box can anyone help me?
[12:00] <kaolti> i have the bigger part solved i just need someone who is good with startup scripts and basic networking
[12:00] <kaolti> anyone?
[12:01] <donkehofdarkness> firestarter can share your connection
[12:01] <stefg> kaolti: firestartr can set that up for you
[12:01] <kaolti> yea i know but i cuoldnt get it work with firestarter
[12:01] <kaolti> so i read a tutorial
[12:01] <kaolti> with ifconfig
[12:02] <kaolti> and manually setting up ip forwarding
[12:02] <kaolti> the problem is that it works but when i restart this linux box i have to do it all over again
[12:03] <stefg> kaolti: /etc/init.d/rc.local is intended for your own startup procedures
[12:04] <LGKeiz> How do I know which graphic card ubuntu is using?
[12:04] <runa> hi i want to make a proxy to compX but i have to pass through compY. How can i do it with ssh?
[12:04] <New-User> hello, i started to install Ubuntu 6.06, it takes hours to start and after passing many hours not start installation to my PC
[12:04] <kaolti> stefg: i can use regular terminal commands in that script?
[12:05] <Trixsey> Hey, I tried 2.6.20-15 and activated the prop. driver (I have a Radeon X700) in System>Restricted>RDM.. after reboot my screen just died.. what do I do? had to go back to -14 to get in again
[12:05] <LGKeiz> How do i know which graphic card Ubuntu is using
[12:05] <stefg> kaolti: correction... it's symlinked to /etc/rc.local .yes, just write the commands you issue manually in there, make sure it ends by exit 0
[12:05] <donkehofdarkness> New-User> 6.06 installs in about 15-20 minutes
[12:05] <donkehofdarkness> There's a problem if it takes longer
[12:05] <Wamphyri> LGKeiz: how many video cards are you using?
[12:05] <Trixsey> LGKeiz, right now Ubuntu is using Radeon X700 :D
[12:05] <LGKeiz> 2
[12:05] <kaolti> stefg: cool thanks lemme try if it works
[12:06] <LGKeiz> I have 2, a 64MB card and a 165MB, I was wondering which one Ubuntu is using
[12:06] <LGKeiz> I want it to use the 165MB
[12:06] <stefg> Trixsey: is linux-restricted-modules-generic installed?
[12:06] <donkehofdarkness> New-User> For the liveCD install you need 256MB ram or it can get stuck
[12:06] <Ramunas> before and after installing KDE(I'm on Gnome) http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png how do I get it to look the way it used to?
[12:06] <Wamphyri> LGKeiz: what video card is this monitor connected to?
[12:06] <Trixsey> stefg, yes
[12:07] <donkehofdarkness> New-User> you might try the alternative install CD
[12:07] <LGKeiz> Wamp, sec. lawl
[12:07] <donkehofdarkness> well.. it's 4am here. I'm off to bed
[12:07] <stefg> Trixsey: so you are positive that the appropriate driver for -15 is there, it just won't work?
[12:07] <kaolti> stefg: another thing.i need to run those commands as root, can i use sudo -i in that script, or i can edit /etc/rc.local
[12:08] <kaolti> ?
[12:08] <Trixsey> stefg, it showed up in the RDM
[12:08] <Trixsey> and I enabled it
[12:08] <Trixsey> it asked me to reboot, I did
[12:08] <Trixsey> then it went all black
[12:08] <stefg> kaolti: that's run with root-privs anyway
[12:08] <afief_> What would be the linux equivalent for making presentations similar to flash(more advanced than impress, but less than a full fledged video project)?
[12:08] <New-User> i tried 3-4 different CDs
[12:09] <New-User> can u tell how to statr setup in windows / DOS interface
[12:09] <donkehofdarkness> afief> I run Studio MX in WINE
[12:09] <gary> Anyone know where to download realplayer from.  I can't find it in apt sources.  I'm using multiverse, and universe
[12:09] <stefg> kaolti: that's the pupose of /etc/rc.local ... to be edited by you. no need to use sudo
[12:09] <Wamphyri> donkehofdarkness: wine has come along way
[12:09] <donkehofdarkness> New-User> You don't run it from windows/dos
[12:09] <gary> ... and backports
[12:10] <donkehofdarkness> New-User> You boot from the CD
[12:10] <afief_> donkehofdarkness, sounds okay for me, but is there an open equivalent? I know svg CAN do it, but i don't know a program to make those nifty svgs
[12:10] <Neil-> anyone know a vrml viewer for ubuntu?
[12:10] <donkehofdarkness> Wamphyri> it has. I can even run starcraft and a few other games in it
[12:11] <New-User> ;( but cd takes hours to start , i hav Sampron 2400+ processor, 80 GB HDD, 256 MB Ram
[12:11] <donkehofdarkness> afief> I don't know of any
[12:11] <Wamphyri> donkehofdarkness: i was just running silkroad online on it
[12:11] <donkehofdarkness> afief> ktoon maybe
[12:11] <afief_> donkehofdarkness, another starcraft player?:) let's hope the starcraft2 rumors are true
[12:11] <stefg> !faq gary
[12:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about faq gary - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[12:11] <freestyle> hi there! I have a problem... I get 'Desktop effects could not be be enabled' message when trying to enable them... :S
[12:11] <donkehofdarkness> afief> Also might check out Synfig
[12:11] <Neil-> anyone know a vrml viewer for ubuntu? pref. with a mozilla/firefox plugin..
[12:12] <freestyle> have already tried many net searches, cant find the answer
[12:12] <donkehofdarkness> New-User> Bad media maybe?
[12:12] <stefg> freestyle: what videocard with what driver?
[12:12] <afief_> donkehofdarkness, hmmm... ktoon seems to be unavailable in the repositories
[12:12] <donkehofdarkness> yeah
[12:13] <donkehofdarkness> afief> You'll have to compile those programs
[12:13] <freestyle> stefg> nvidia 6600 - i dont know which driver?
[12:13] <Trixsey> Hey, I tried 2.6.20-15 and activated the prop. driver (I have a Radeon X700) in System>Restricted>RDM.. after reboot my screen just died.. what do I do? had to go back to -14 to get in again
[12:13] <donkehofdarkness> afief> ktoon is very new and still under development
[12:13] <stefg> freestyle: you need to enable the restricted nvidia-driver first. No 3D acceleration, no desktop-effects....
[12:14] <freestyle> stefg> i have it enabled
[12:14] <afief_> donkehofdarkness, let's hope the dependencies come by easily or i'm in for a long day of manual compilation
[12:14] <donkehofdarkness> afief> Synfig should be in the 7.04 repository
[12:14] <freestyle> that is why it's weird to me...
[12:14] <freakynl> ques... installed ubuntu 7.04 server. connecting through ssh goes fine, but it takes like a minute before the password prompt appears. DNS n such works fine. any ideas what's causing the slow down?
[12:14] <afief_> synfig
[12:15] <donkehofdarkness> freakynl> I have the same problem
[12:15] <afief_> donkehofdarkness, synfig is but i'm still trying to figure out what it does
[12:15] <donkehofdarkness> afief> animation software
[12:15] <stefg> freestyle: if you 'cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nvidia' , do you get a line 'Driver nvidia' ?
[12:15] <freakynl> donkehofdarkness: so have a solution? :D
[12:16] <n2diy> How do I request Dapper CDs from Shipit?
[12:16] <afief_> donkehofdarkness, CLI animation software?
[12:16] <freakynl> also, i installed vmware server and vmware mui, but the mui won't start. any ideas?
[12:16] <donkehofdarkness> freakynl> dunno. I always figured it was from the encryption I use
[12:16] <donkehofdarkness> afief> CLI? no
[12:16] <palmerthegeek> n2diy: have you visited www.ubuntu.com
[12:16] <mattfletcher> i read that i can edit files within /etc/skel to redefine things like desktop backgrounds for any new users i create, is this correct?
[12:16] <freestyle> stefg> yes
[12:17] <stefg> freestyle: and 'glxinfo | grep direct' tells direct rendering yes?
[12:17] <freakynl> donkehofdarkness: doubt that... i have 500MHz boxes that respond much much faster than this 2.4GHz with much more memory and 0 load
[12:17] <n2diy> palmerthegeek: no, I thought Shipit was the place to go?
[12:17] <donkehofdarkness> afief> http://www.synfig.com/
[12:17] <nanotalk> how's the easiest way to install both desktop + server package..?
[12:17] <palmerthegeek> n2diy: you can find the links to shipit from the ubuntu site.
[12:18] <afief_> donkehofdarkness, the gui was in another package called synfigstudio:)
[12:18] <freakynl> nanotalk: install desktop, use package manager?
[12:18] <donkehofdarkness> freakynl> dunno
[12:18] <freestyle> stefg> no, says bunch of GLX extensions missing :S
[12:18] <stefg> freestyle: ok... there's the problem
[12:18] <donkehofdarkness> afief> yeah, I think it's 3 different packages
[12:19] <New-User> can i start CD Live from my Hard Drive
[12:19] <donkehofdarkness> There's also a ETL package
[12:19] <CaptainMorgan> on my desktop - trying to upgrade to 7.04 via System/Admin/Update Manager... not letting me - saying "Authentication Failure"
[12:19] <afief_> donkehofdarkness, now lets see if I can get my professor to drool even more over open source(6)
[12:19] <n2diy> palmerthegeek: The question was, how do i order Dapper CDs from Sihpit?
[12:19] <CaptainMorgan> any ideas?
[12:19] <nanotalk> freakynl, if I got both desktop cd and server cd , can I install the desktop first, and then install server package using the other cd ?
[12:19] <donkehofdarkness> New-User> You could maybe try running it in Qemu and having Qemu mount the drive
[12:20] <freestyle>  stefg> should i google, or do u know how to fix it?
[12:20] <stefg> freestyle: switch to a console [ctrl-alt-f1]  and 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' in order to fix up your xorg.conf. when it's done sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart
[12:20] <donkehofdarkness> anyways.. I'm off to bed now
[12:21] <freakynl> nanotalk: no
[12:21] <freakynl> nanotalk: just install desktop and use the package manager to pull in other packages you need like apache
[12:21] <n2diy> palmerthegeek: The question was, how do i order Dapper CDs from Sihpit?
[12:21] <nanotalk> okay..
[12:22] <palmerthegeek> n2diy: got it... never mind then
[12:23] <n2diy> palmerthegeek: Roger, think this is a bug, and should be reported?

[12:27] <TiGZ> any ideas?
[12:27] <fiery_cleric> TiGZ: does it work with sudo?
[12:27] <TiGZ> yes
[12:27] <crdlb> Trixsey: what does "screen just died" mean?
[12:28] <Trixsey> crdlb, it shows a few strange lines.. goes black
[12:28] <fiery_cleric> TiGZ: where is the cd drive ? /media/cdrom ?
[12:28] <TiGZ> yep
[12:28] <Trixsey> crdlb, but the comp is working.. I can log in and stuff (I have sound on, so I hear when I log in)
[12:28] <Trixsey> basically its just the display driver that fucks up

[12:29] <fiery_cleric> TiGZ: what group is /media/cdrom have?
[12:29] <stefg> TiGZ: root means nothing on ubuntu, you need to be member of admin, cdrom and probably other groups
[12:29] <fiery_cleric> does
[12:29] <TiGZ> root, admin
[12:29] <TiGZ> so i change my main group to admin
[12:29] <TiGZ> and make myself a member of admin
[12:30] <crdlb> Trixsey: I don't have a clue, fglrx is a finicky piece of crap :|
[12:30] <stefg> TigZ and cdrom, plugdev....
[12:30] <TiGZ> ok
[12:30] <fiery_cleric> are u using system->admin->users and groups
[12:30] <TiGZ> yes
[12:30] <TiGZ> and those groups are not listed
[12:30] <freestyle> stefg> sory 4 bothering u again, but the thing didn't work - still i gte same message + i have smaller resolution which i cant fix to bigger...:S
[12:30] <TiGZ> (cdrom,plugdev)
[12:31] <CaptainMorgan> I followed the instructions listed at http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading regarding the Authentication Failure - my update-manager is the correct version, and my Internet Updates/Recommended UPdates is checked as it should be... why am I then still receiving an Authentication Failure ??

[12:32] <fiery_cleric> TiGZ: is that set?
[12:32] <TiGZ> yes

[12:35] <pord>  hi there..... any1 here know how to get flash working on a 64bit version of ubuntu feisty 7.04? Ive tried using nspluginwrapper but still not working
[12:35] <stefg> freestyle: ok... the drivers are there... it's gotta be 'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable'

[12:38] <TiGZ> -rwx------- is for the files
[12:38] <fiery_cleric> TiGZ: so u can read the files on the cd... :)
[12:39] <TiGZ> well i can't copy thenm
[12:41] <fiery_cleric> TiGZ: what kind of cd is it? whats on it? ...
[12:41] <TiGZ> Macromedia Studio 8
[12:41] <TiGZ> ill try another cd
[12:42] <TiGZ> agh its the cd...

[12:43] <TiGZ> my question is WHY!?
[12:44] <fiery_cleric> TiGZ: well some cds have user permissions (Rock ridge) .... but normal cds default all files to read for any user
[12:45] <crdlb> dromer: try ssh -YC
[12:45] <dromer> crdlb: why that and what does it do?
[12:45] <fiery_cleric> maybe sudo mount -o remount -o mode=555 /media/cdrom0 ...
[12:46] <crdlb> dromer: the C is for compression, and the Y has something to do with X authentication
[12:46] <dromer> whf do I have to do that? I'm not connected through ssh, I'm right behind the dosktop
[12:46] <dromer> also, I usually use putty from other places (windohs you know ;) )

[01:00] <kayef> can i disable xchat showing who has join and quit this channel?

[01:11] <zauber> trying to get vsftpd working with virtual users, authenticaded by pam-something. (all according to example in docs-dir). My best guess to why it's not working is because "pam_userdb.so" isn't there. Can't seem to find any packages like "libpam-userdb" or anything. Ideas anyone?

[01:17] <crdlb> don't put -y
[01:17] <TeePOG> aptitude is so much nicer, cleans up after itself

[01:19] <crdlb> that's a terrible attitude

[01:20] <TeePOG> crdlb: in an ideal world, sure

[01:35] <crdlb> hans: avoid broadcom and prism
[01:35] <slackthumbz> crdlb: really? I thought prism were ok?
[01:35] <crdlb> oh maybe not
[01:35] <Hobbsee> prism's...sometimes dodgy
[01:35] <slackthumbz> broadcom ethernet cards are fine, but their wireless cards definitely to be avoided
[01:35] <kejlsn> Pici,  Really? :S Im in a really big need of that funktion, Vista has it >_<
[01:36] <TeePOG> atheros is best, madwifi driver rocks
[01:36] <kejlsn> Pici, Isnt it possble to make another kind of windows appear by deafult when ur browsing on the internet?
[01:36] <HymnToLife> kejlsn, display of thumbnails when you upload images to e.g. imageshack ?
[01:36] <crdlb> madwifi can have issues with wpa
[01:36] <slackthumbz> kejlsn: vista may have one little function but don't forget that it's a memory hogging beta-released pile of $%&^!!!
[01:36] <HymnToLife> KDE has it too
[01:37] <MindOfChaos> so
[01:37] <MindOfChaos> I have to some how find out the module name
[01:37] <ubuntu> hi
[01:37] <MindOfChaos> to blacklist the onboard sound
[01:37] <moauud> join #ubuntu-sa
[01:37] <savetheWorld> Does anyone know where iptables-save info needs to go for resumption after reboot?
[01:37] <MindOfChaos> to turn it off
[01:37] <ubuntu> selam
[01:37] <moauud> join #ubuntu-sa/
[01:37] <moauud> join #ubuntu-sa/
[01:37] <Pici> HymnToLife: Hes referring to the 'open file' dialog box.
[01:38] <bimberi> moauud: /join ...
[01:38] <HymnToLife> KDE can show thumbnails in it then
[01:38] <kejlsn> Pici,  Yeah, exact! Like imageschack
[01:38] <HymnToLife> hooray to KDE !

[01:38] <arigold> Good Morning, everyone. What are the most popular / most reliable apps for an ipod device... that can transfer files from iPod to the computer and vice versa?
[01:38] <beowu1f> please help: I'm having a problem compiling taglib (kde multimedia libs) 'undefined reference' compiler errors. i think it has to do with libstdc++. compiler error is at http://rafb.net/p/zIKKnI97.html
[01:38] <HymnToLife> arigold, music or just random files ?
[01:38] <kejlsn> Pici,  The window that appear for me is named "filvering" (swedish) Like .."filetransfer"
[01:39] <arigold> mp3's , podcasts
[01:39] <hans> crdlb: thanks for your help :)
[01:39] <idefixx> savetheWorld: the last time i checked it didnt.. if you mean firestarter i dont know.. but it installs some kind of init script afaik
[01:39] <freakynl> ques... installed ubuntu 7.04 server. connecting through ssh goes fine, but it takes like a minute before the password prompt appears. DNS n such works fine. any ideas what's causing the slow down?
[01:39] <noob_> flying hippo where do you find your streams? im not aware that you can type in any stream for example accessible in itunes for instance
[01:40] <arigold> HymnToLife: if there is an exception program for AAC files, I would like to know that in the back of my mind, as well.
[01:40] <slackthumbz> arigold: amarok, as well as being a music manager for your computer has Ipod connection capabilities but I can't vouch for good they are as I refuse to spend any money on DRM infested sh**
[01:40] <arigold> HymnToLife: but mostly just mp3
[01:40] <Jezz> can i connect to a domain in ubuntu?
[01:40] <slackthumbz> arigold: there's also a stand-alone app called gtkpod which might be worth trying
[01:40] <HymnToLife> arigold, Amarok can transfer mp3s to your iPod, don't know about podcasts though
[01:41] <HymnToLife> !ipod

[01:42] <mattfletcher> I heard that i can edit files within /etc/skel to predefine the desktop background and theme for any new users i create, but i've looked in /etc/skel/ on an ubuntu 7.04 server (the only machine i have handy) and there are only a couple of files like .bashrc in /etc/skel/, no big directories of stuff i could change.
[01:42] <shiris1> guys does anybody what is that gtk2 theme murriane, murriene anybody?
[01:42] <freakynl> mattfletcher: create em
[01:43] <crdlb> shiris1: murrine
[01:43] <arigold> HymnToLife: thanks. need to find something that is willing to allow me to transfer MP3s and maybe even AAC's to the computer when I want, so I can use many computers to the one ipod.
[01:43] <Einar479> Hi :)

[01:45] <jrib> freestyle: keep windows on ntfs where it likes to be and put ubuntu on ext3 where it likes to be
[01:45] <freestyle> hom much space does ubuntu need?
[01:46] <Jezz> how do i enter my files on a external NTSF HD?
[01:46] <dunstabulos> freestyle: grab the ext2/3 driver for windows
[01:46] <MindOfChaos> damn cunty sound card detection
[01:46] <freestyle> and, why is there an option /boot in ubuntu unstall - as new partition?
[01:46] <Jezz> i can enter it on a intern hd but not on my usb hd?
[01:46] <freestyle> install*
[01:46] <dunstabulos> no need for fat32 transfer partitions anymore
[01:46] <Jezz> !install

[01:51] <omarion> jrib: isn't there any pre-compiled packages?
[01:51] <slackthumbz> omarion: ah, you'll probably have to compile it then. You can get any number of SVN clients in apt, just go to the amsn website and check for pre-compiled packages there first

[01:51] <jrib> omarion: probably not.  Why do you need the svn version instead of the one in the repos?
[01:51] <Steve^> thanks jrib
[01:52] <omarion> jrib: because it doesn't have the voice clips feature

[01:54] <Steve^> jrib, this is so perfect..  :P   Saves me alot of time!
[01:55] <Teres_> how do i upgrade from fiesty beta 2 da real thing?
[01:55] <idefixx> savetheWorld: in case you are not joking, no it isnt it just uses iptables and the restore feature it part of firestarter not iptables.
[01:55] <gnomefreak> Teres_: do all your updates
[01:56] <Teres_> i have
[01:56] <Teres_> i think
[01:56] <savetheWorld> firestarter is a wrapper.
[01:56] <soundray> crdlb: I found out what the problem was
[01:56] <Teres_> how?
[01:56] <gnomefreak> Teres_: than you are on final
[01:56] <savetheWorld> idefixx: take a look in the inside of it.
[01:56] <nn-laptop> hi
[01:56] <idefixx> savetheWorld: well actually it a gui :)
[01:56] <gnomefreak> Teres_: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[01:56] <rambo3> Trixsey, as far as i can see you are using aiglx instead of glx for fglrx driver
[01:56] <flyby5> The news is that our beloved Head of Freenode Staff _christel_ works together with the anti Rob Levin network OFTC now to fight against trolls.

[01:56] <kayef> what is a good and popular download manager for ubuntu?
[01:57] <nn-laptop> hi everyone
[01:57] <savetheWorld> idefixx: yes, many GUIs are wrappers for comand line tools. for example k3b is a wrapper for cdrecord.
[01:57] <soundray> crdlb: for some reason, xorg.conf was pointing to /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1 instead of /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1 after upgrading (edgy-feisty)
[01:57] <Trixsey> rambo3, right now I'm using ALSA..
[01:57] <Trixsey> rambo3, I tried using fglrx an hour ago and it didnt work
[01:57] <idefixx> savetheWorld: in technical terms a wrapper is something else than a gui
[01:57] <boguh> wich package for ubuntu do i need to open .tar.gz with emacs?
[01:57] <soundray> kayef: wget
[01:57] <Trixsey> rambo3, when I use it the screen goes black and some orange lines come up (like when I use the wrong driver)
[01:57] <idefixx> savetheWorld: anyway you know what your looking for.
[01:57] <savetheWorld> idefixx: no
[01:57] <ikonia> boguh emacs is a text editor
[01:57] <Trixsey> rambo3, sorry.. not ALSA.. MESA :P
[01:57] <savetheWorld> a wrapper can be a gui or just another tool/program.
[01:58] <Teres_> so if im upgraded then y does my compiz still not work?
[01:58] <nn-laptop> wanted you all to know i made a file bin so you could debug easiear on irc try it ;; filebin.info

[01:58] <ikonia> soundray I'd be curious to see if it could
[01:58] <halino> that's really not my problem Pici, though thanks
[01:59] <Trixsey> rambo3, I don't know what I'll be looking for though? I really have no idea what could be wrong with my gfx :p
[01:59] <idefixx> savetheWorld: allright

[02:15] <fiery_cleric> vbabiy: so its taking about a 2.5 minutes
[02:15] <nrdb> I have just installed 7.04 I am having trouble with apt-get and dpkg when I run apt-get I get the message "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." when I then run dpkg I get the message "dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0007' near line 1:" plus "field name `UEVENT[1177829094.315545] ' must be followed by colon"  :( can anyone help ?
[02:16] <jrib> ClayPigeon: just right click on a file and go to properties, then go to the "open with" tab
[02:16] <fiery_cleric> vbabiy: there is a long space in the middle with no cpu+disk activity
[02:17] <vbabiy> fiery_cleric: yeah i know
[02:17] <fiery_cleric> vbabiy: looks like modprobe ...
[02:17] <Trixsey> I tried using System>Administration>RDM and activated my prop. driver for my Radeon X700. When it starts up the screen goes black and strange orange lines are on it! Any ideas?
[02:17] <vbabiy> fiery_cleric: any idea for a fix
[02:18] <ikonia> vbabiy whats the problem
[02:18] <noob_> ikonia thanks for the help
[02:18] <vbabiy> not sure but its taken a long time to boot
[02:18] <fiery_cleric> vbabiy: have u looked at dmesg
[02:18] <fiery_cleric> output
[02:18] <noob_> i really appreciate the help i get in here
[02:18] <ClayPigeon> Jrib : Yeah, but that doesn't change the autoselect. I found that Crossover adds the .mime-types. Going to rename it and see what happens. ;)
[02:18] <ikonia> vbabiy define long time and at what pointis it taking a long time, whats on screen
[02:19] <vbabiy> hey ikonia and fiery_cleric here is the problem http://pastebin.co.uk/13875
[02:19] <jrib> ClayPigeon: what do you mean by "autoselect"?
[02:20] <ikonia> vbabiy what disks are you using ?
[02:20] <ikonia> that looks like a usb disk
[02:21] <vbabiy> i have one ide and one SATA i don't have any usb disks
[02:21] <ClayPigeon> jrib: Before I installed Crossover an avi was started by Totem (I think). After it's mmplayer.exe in the default win98 bottle from Crossover.

[02:32] <kaushal> Hi fiery_cleric
[02:32] <fiery_cleric> hi
[02:32] <kaushal> so how do i install it
[02:32] <alxarch> i think i found a bug on feisty on the mesa drivers for ati cards what should i do?(it's blender-related but the problem isn't blender's cause it works just fine on the same pc on debian etch)
[02:32] <jrib> kaushal: wireshark is in universe, enable universe and use synaptic to install it
[02:32] <jrib> !universe > kaushal (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:33] <fiery_cleric> :) sudo apt-get  install wireshark ... or use synaptic under system->admin->synaptic package manager
[02:33] <jrib> !bugs > alxarch (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:33] <ikonia> alxarch debian etch is not ubuntu
[02:33] <XCute4God> freakynl: hmm... so the 2.6.21 should work correctly?
[02:33] <kaushal> $ sudo apt-get install wireshark

[02:34] <jrib> kaushal: please don't paste here, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org instead.  YOu need to enable universe
[02:34] <alxarch> on etch everything is fine
[02:34] <ikonia> alxarch yes but you don't know its not blender
[02:35] <stefg> XCute4God: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=310394
[02:36] <alxarch> it's not blender, there's an ogl shader extension that doesn't work on the mesa drivers ubuntu has it's called smooth_line_something
[02:36] <ikonia> alxarch how do you know itsnot a blender incompatability  ?
[02:36] <alxarch> but at the same time it works fine under debian
[02:36] <kaushal> sorry jrib
[02:36] <ikonia> as I said - this isn't debian
[02:37] <|ericsson|> I'll ask here as well: rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(892) [sender=2.6.8]  <-- Anyone had that during backups?
[02:37] <freakynl> XCute4God: correctly is a big word... less error prone... probably :) i see it's released (2.6.21 that is) so perhaps there's a package for it try it
[02:37] <alxarch> yes but if it works on debian (same version of blender) and doesn't work on ubuntu we have an ubuntu problem don't we?
[02:37] <ikonia> alxarch no
[02:37] <alxarch> i'm confused
[02:38] <alxarch> :)
[02:38] <nazo029A> quit

[02:40] <tomix> does anyone no of any good database migration tools? / had sucess with mysql migration toolkit on ubuntu?
[02:40] <nansub0111>  hello. i am running Edgy Eft. last night I changed my monitor to an LCD display. my graphics card is an Intel 915G. after installing the LCD display I ran "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and reconfigured my monitor section. restarted X and everything worked great.
[02:40] <nansub0111>  i saw the login window. when I attempted to log in to the primary account (the account I created when I first installed ubuntu) I would only get a black screen in g nome. I would get an "out of range" message on my lcd display. if i logged in with another account, however, i could log in without any problems.
[02:40] <ikonia> tomix the mysql tool kit is fine
[02:40] <nansub0111>  in order to get around this problem I had to delete the account in question and recreate it. this fixed the problem. but I would like to know what/why this happened. anyone have any ideas? thanks!
[02:41] <ikonia> nansub0111 sounds like the desktop settings of that user was incompatabile
[02:41] <ikonia> someting in one of the .gnome files
[02:41] <alxarch> ok let me put it this way: it used to work fine on dapper
[02:41] <nansub0111> ikonia: yes. i tried deleting the .gnome directories but this didn't seem to help.
[02:41] <alxarch> is this an ubuntu bug now? :)
[02:42] <ikonia> alxarch no
[02:42] <ikonia> nansub0111 sounds unusual
[02:42] <alxarch> ikonia plz define ubuntu bug :D
[02:42] <nrdb> I have just installed 7.04 I did an update, but now I can't get apt-get or dpkg to work at all :(  when I run apt-get I get an error message "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem."  when I run dpkg I get "dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0007' near line 1:"  and " field name `y/ttyx8' must be followed by colon"  :(  what can I do to fix this ?
[02:43] <nansub0111> ikonia: yeah. it is very odd. i tried looking to see if the desktop settings were being stored anywhere else for the original user but I couldn't find anything.
[02:43] <ziggy23> I need help setting up a printer.
[02:43] <ikonia> alxarch it could be a problem with a component in ubuntu not being compatible with blender, or it could be blender being incompatible with a product packaged by ubuntu, so therefore the problem could be a.) ubuntu b.) blender c.) one of the dependency programs

[02:44] <XCute4God> freakynl: yeah... maybe... the only problem is that my network works for 2,3 minutes... then stop working and then the message "disabled irq #7"
[02:44] <ikonia> alxarch hence why I'm saying you can't say 1.) this is an ubuntu problem 2.) it used to work in debian
[02:44] <Trixsey> I tried using System>Administration>RDM and activated my prop. driver for my Radeon X700. When it starts up the screen goes black and strange orange lines are on it! Any ideas?

[02:45] <Refoyl> I manage the computers in my CS department, say 200 Linux boxes.  We might switch from Slackware to Ubuntu.  We have been putting software in /usr/local on a few machines (kept synchronized with rdist) and mounting that directory on all the other machines.  Ubuntu doesn't use /usr/local.  Is there a straightforward way to tell the package manager that we want to substitute /usr/local/bin for /usr/bin, and /usr/local/lib for /usr/lib?
[02:45] <alxarch> i was until i put feisty
[02:45] <ikonia> variant wrong passsword
[02:46] <jrib> variant: try #launchpad as well
[02:46] <alxarch> (i am using ubuntu on my laptop bcause of hardware recognition)
[02:46] <variant> ikonia: of course i checked.. if i try a different pass it then says "sorry, incorrect pass speicified please try again" or something simmilar (it doesnt do that if i enter the right onw)
[02:46] <ikonia> alxarch again, proves nothing

[02:56] <Ashtee> Hi again. I need help. I have problem with keyboard - can not type 3.level  like (@)   ( I have danish keyboard)
[02:57] <insmod> any fix for shuting down an acer laptop? works sometimes and not others
[02:57] <ziggy23> how do I make sure I am getting the hpijs driver?
[02:57] <stefg> ziggy23: it's installed by default... just follow the guide
[02:57] <georgy_> ziggy23, : it's come with the distribution
[02:57] <nrdb> I have just installed 7.04 I did an update, but now I can't get apt-get or dpkg to work at all :(  when I run apt-get I get an error message "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem."  when I run dpkg I get "dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0007' near line 1:"  and " field name `y/ttyx8' must be followed by colon"  :(  what can I do to fix this ?  I n
[02:59] <mboman> never mind, found something
[02:59] <ziggy23> but the actual model number, cp1160 isn't listed in feisty (it was in edgy)
[02:59] <variant> Anyone know why no matter how many times I remove amarok from the session startup, close the program and save the session as default - etc, amarok _allways_ starts up when I log in?
[02:59] <georgy_> ziggy23, : don't care, take another similar printer with the same driver
[03:00] <georgy_> ziggy23, : and try to print a tetpage
[03:00] <georgy_> *testpage
[03:00] <jeff_> ***beginner question**** -how the heck to I use an Emerald theme? I can use the Emerald Theme manager to see the themes, but not apply one. There's another theme manager in Ubuntu, but that has no Emerald themes?
[03:00] <variant> jeff_: are you running beryl with emerald selected as the theme engine?
[03:00] <stefg> nrdb: since the file is broken anyway i'd try to remove it (or rename it). dpkg database-break ca be nasty
[03:01] <ziggy23> OK, fine.  But you're dealing with a newbie.  The cp1160 isn't very popular, I don't know what's similar to it.  Maybe I should have gotten a deskjet  lol
[03:01] <Ashtee> Hi again. I need help. I have problem with keyboard - can not type 3.level  like (@)   ( I have danish keyboard)
[03:02] <variant> Ashtee: if you are not getting an answer try rephrasing your question..
[03:02] <nrdb> stefg: I will try that (rename that is)
[03:02] <variant> Ashtee: have you used the keyboard indicator applet?
[03:02] <ikonia> variant <sarcasm> nonsense, just keep asking it over and over </sarcasm>
[03:02] <variant> Ashtee: to select the correct layout..
[03:02] <georgy_> ziggy23 : not the name is important, but the driver
[03:02] <variant> ikonia: eheh
[03:03] <Ashtee> Variant. I really do not know
[03:03] <ziggy23> ok I will try
[03:03] <variant> Ashtee: right click the panel at the top of the window and select "add to panel" from the window that pops up select keyboard indicator" or whatever it's called.. you will see it
[03:04] <Pici> nrdb: Try deleting everything in /var/lib/dpkg/updates/
[03:04] <Ashtee> I have it
[03:04] <variant> Ashtee: that will put a two or three letter word on the panel that indicates the current language of the keyboard layout
[03:04] <Ashtee> it is DK there
[03:04] <YueBuQun> anyone get the free cd 7.04?
[03:04] <maemo> how to know which package provides a file (say /usr/bin/ls) by using dpkg ?
[03:04] <BlackBsd> if i use the alternate install cd, is it possible to install this from a running system manuall from the cli?
[03:04] <variant> Ashtee: so right click it and select "keyboard preferences"
[03:04] <Ashtee> I can type danish keys too
[03:04] <bimberi> maemo: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[03:04] <stefg> nrdb: http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Debian/package-database-rebuild.html might help also
[03:04] <BlackBsd> i want to try ubuntu but i have gentoo installed already.
[03:05] <bimberi> YueBuQun: yes, today
[03:05] <jeff_> Variant. I was not running Beryl. Getting it now thanks!
[03:05] <variant> Ashtee: there are three different layouts available for danish speakers
[03:05] <BlackBsd> i want to install on another partition, from my running system
[03:05] <variant> jeff_: run beryl-manager and add it to your session
[03:05] <YueBuQun> birdmon, your country ??
[03:06] <nrdb> Pici: stefg:  I renamed the offending file and things seem to be working again.
[03:06] <johnstar> I just installed the vista update for my sound card ,now if I am in vista and reboot to ubuntu sound does not work, it works from cold boot though any ideas?

[03:07] <ikonia> johnstar you said the sound doesn't work after you installed a vista update
[03:07] <variant> JohnRobert: uninstall vista, that should fix it
[03:07] <YueBuQun> bimberi, i am form china no get it no wait wait
[03:07] <ikonia> JohnRobert apologies

[03:07] <Ashtee>  variant: Now I ma there (keyboard Pref.)
[03:07] <XCute4God> stefg: irqfixup gave me a big black screen... ;\
[03:07] <johnstar> boot to vista then reboot to ubuntu = no sound
[03:07] <johnstar> cold boot ubuntu = sound
[03:07] <variant> Ashtee: add a new layout, select danish and see which one it is you need (it will display it in the preferences window)
[03:07] <bimberi> YueBuQun: that's no good :|
[03:08] <variant> johnstar: uninstall vista, that should fix it
[03:08] <stefg> XCute4God: then you are off for a self compiled kernel/ other distro with working kernel (dapper might work)
[03:08] <johnstar> lol
[03:08] <Ashtee> I see just one layout (DK)
[03:08] <Wamphyri> johnstar: sounds like a irq problem
[03:08] <belou> johnstar: just use miscrodoft bob
[03:08] <Ashtee> do you mena layout options?
[03:08] <YueBuQun> bimberi, are you use 7.04?
[03:08] <johnstar> untill I figure how to squeese another hour from my laptops battery I will

[03:09] <stefg> XCute4God: please file a bugreport on Launchpad
[03:09] <variant> Ashtee: although, some of the options in the layout options tab might actually be what your looking for (although I didn't fully understand your initial question)
[03:09] <YueBuQun> bimberi, haha.i use it now..but not very good
[03:09] <qenpo> Is there a list of what hardware Ubuntu supports?

[03:11] <johnstar> dsl is faster than ubuntu
[03:11] <Ashtee>  variant: do you mean I will choose the Denmark (eliminate dead keys)?
[03:12] <bimberi> dell.com/ubuntu is new to me though, cool!
[03:12] <ikonia> johnstar Please talk nosense
[03:12] <bimberi> YueBuQun: that's good :)
[03:12] <variant> Ashtee: if it works, try it. also try the other options in "keyboard options" tab
[03:12] <MortarMan> variant : i dont know what i use , im newbie =) but there also was written this : FGLRX driver not found! (no screens found)
[03:12] <Hokky> Ashtee: Stupid question: You have tried to press "Alt-Gr + 2" to get the "@" sign? A suggestion is to try a Norwegian layout. That works fine for me.
[03:12] <YueBuQun> ikonia, what mean nosense

[03:18] <_john> Hey guys, i have a problem with the desktop effects option in Feisty. When i enable that, the window decoration disappears and all new windows are without decorations. This is an upgrade from edgy so i had beryl installed before. How do i go about trying to fix this?
[03:18] <variant> _john: install beryl again..
[03:19] <hauks_> Everytime I try to install a new package, I have to type the apt-get update for it to work, is there any way I can turn on automatic updates?
[03:19] <RetroCZ> _john: Try open new window.
[03:20] <_john> variant: But compiz is now used instead of beryl...isn't that right?
[03:20] <_john> RetroCZ: All new windows have the same problem.
[03:20] <Trist_an> _john, the two will merge
[03:20] <variant> _john: its the default if you select the menu option however beryl is still available (compiz and beryl may very soon merge)
[03:21] <variant> _john: if beryl worked for you then stick with that. it is still more configurable than compiz
[03:21] <bimberi> hauks_: you can via System -> Admin -> Software Sources, Internet Updates.
[03:21] <Trist_an> Simple question : why should I upgrade to Feisty while everything is perfectly running on Edgy?
[03:21] <_john> variant: Actually berly also had that problem. And then an update fixed that. But now, after i installed compiz, the problem is back again. What is the problem here?
[03:22] <edgy> Trist_an: you shouldn't
[03:22] <bimberi> Trist_an: you shouldn't.  edgy is still supported and if you're happy with it, stick with it
[03:22] <b08y> thats the point, why should i upgrade while all runs perfectly with dapper
[03:22] <variant> _john: install beryl, they are currently two different code bases. so, install beryl
[03:22] <edgy> b08y: youu shouldnt' too ;)
[03:23] <b08y> "NEVER CHANGE A RUNNING SYSTEM"
[03:23] <b08y> ;)
[03:23] <axbard> eey where can I get the newest driver to my radeon 9800pro=
[03:23] <Trist_an> then if I want to install new thunderbird for example, I should download a deb package and install it myself
[03:23] <_john> variant: I still have it installed...the upgrade process just removed some packages, but when i checked again, most packages are still there. So why can't i use compiz? I prefer using the official supported one.
[03:23] <hauks_> thanks bimberi :)
[03:23] <bimberi> hauks_: yw :)
[03:24] <bimberi> Trist_an: no, that's when you start being unhappy with your existing system ... :)
[03:24] <bimberi> ... and upgrade :)
[03:24] <thomas0> eey

[03:37] <enjoi> how can ya change the system time in, Ubuntu server
[03:37] <ikonia> use the date command or ntp

[03:39] <Dima_2005> did someone had success in installing Ubuntu 7.04 in a virtual pc?
[03:39] <Dima_2005> VMWare or MS
[03:39] <PriceChild> Dima_2005: works fine for me
[03:39] <PriceChild> vmware
[03:39] <ikonia> Dima_2005 yes thanks
[03:39] <Dima_2005> I'll try
[03:39] <_john> Dima_2005: Worked on VirtualBox
[03:39] <hauks_> when i insert a dvd (an original dvd) VLC won't play it, is there any other programs I may use to play dvd's ?
[03:39] <Pici> !dvd | hauks_
[03:39] <ubotu> hauks_: 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
[03:39] <ClayPigeon> kaolti: What ikonia is saying is to put all that stuff on your web link in /etc/rc.local
[03:39] <enjoi> thnx F'ikonia F'bimberi and F'someothernick
[03:40] <ClayPigeon> ikonia, you looked busy.
[03:40] <ClayPigeon> ;)
[03:40] <ugnud> is there an easy way to join a windows domain
[03:40] <ikonia> ClayPigeon I was a tad buier earlier
[03:40] <ugnud> i tried doing the manual edit a bunch of files with no success
[03:40] <Fade> smb4k is a decent network browser.
[03:40] <waseidel> Hola Gente Como Estan?
[03:40] <libervisco> I can't boot the Ubuntu 64bit feisty CD..
[03:40] <Memories> could some1 help me get the latest version of AMSN plz
[03:40] <kaolti> ClayPigeon: yea i tried that but it didnt work
[03:41] <libervisco> it puts my monitor to sleep
[03:41] <libervisco> and stops
[03:41] <enjoi> hmm, another question, i installed oidentd but it replies nothing, because it's running on an other ip then the server ip
[03:41] <enjoi> know how to fix that?
[03:42] <kuma> hi, is it possible to store a different linux commands in a text file and then run them? like a .bat on dos
[03:43] <PriceChild> kuma: yes, just put them in a file, save it.
[03:43] <slackthumbz> kuma: yes, it's called a shell script
[03:43] <PriceChild> kuma: then "sudo chmod +x /path/to/script" then you can run it with "/path/to/script"
[03:43] <DARKGuy> hey, how can I run the screensaver on request? say, if I'm leaving the PC for a while in an environment where I can't, so I must lock it...
[03:43] <slackthumbz> kuma: read this -> http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/
[03:43] <tarzeau> kuma: yes
[03:43] <DARKGuy> kinda like in windows, Win+L
[03:43] <ugnud> yeah its called a bash file
[03:43] <ikonia> kuma yes shell scripting
[03:43] <ugnud> make a text file with your commands name it blah.sh and then chmod +x it
[03:44] <kuma> tarzeau, PriceChild, slackthumbz, ikonia, heheh thanks for the response
[03:44] <variant> kuma: rather more powerfull than a windows .bat file i might add
[03:44] <bimberi> DARKGuy: System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts
[03:44] <slackthumbz> variant: very true, I've been having to write some .bat's at work and I lament the lack of flexibility and power I get in bash
[03:44] <ircNewBie> hello guys
[03:45] <ugnud> anyone got any experience joining ubuntu to a windows domain?
[03:45] <slackthumbz> ircNewBie: good afternoon
[03:45] <mjr> kuma, seems they forgot that you should put, on the first line of the script, "#!/bin/sh" (or whatever interpreter you want the script to be run with)
[03:45] <bootsmorris> hi all
[03:46] <slackthumbz> mjr: I gave kuma a link to the advanced bash scripting guide, everything he could possibly need to know is in there
[03:46] <mjr> righto, well, anyway
[03:46] <slackthumbz> mjr: and also, you don't *have* to use a shebang line
[03:46] <bootsmorris> hello room
[03:46] <freezey> i have a question i have a graphics card and onboard video... i want to run dual monitors... am i going to need 2 video cards or could i run it with onboard and the video card?
[03:46] <slackthumbz> it just makes it easier for the shell to interpret your commands
[03:46] <ston> hi. how to create tar.gz or tar.bz2 file??
[03:46] <ikonia> freezey depends on how much grunt you requrie
[03:46] <ikonia> requrie
[03:47] <ikonia> ston man tar
[03:47] <bootsmorris> i just need to know what i need to have installed to be able to compilw things from source??
[03:47] <ston> hmm
[03:47] <ston> don't you know that??
[03:47] <Dozzy> what button is the Special key? lol
[03:47] <ircNewBie> i want that the configuration of the other user's  enlightenment environment to take effect exactly to my account... can i copy his configuration?
[03:47] <ikonia> ston yes I know - if you man "tar" you'll find out
[03:47] <J_a_m_e_s> ston: right click on the file you want to archive and then select the extension you want
[03:47] <ugnud> tar -cf newfile.tar dir
[03:47] <ClayPigeon> ston: gzip -9 foo.tar
[03:47] <freezey> ikonia: do explain?
[03:47] <bimberi> ston: tar cvzf file.tar.gz file-or-directory
[03:47] <ugnud> gzip dir.tar
[03:47] <mjr> freezey, depends really on the MB; especially AGP boards might not be able to use the on-board video and an (agp) card simultaneously
[03:47] <ikonia> don't all fall over yourselves to spoon feed him
[03:47] <freezey> mjr: i really dont think they can do that
[03:47] <ugnud> or like bimberi said
[03:47] <ClayPigeon> lol
[03:47] <slackthumbz> ston: tar zcvf <name of archive you want to create> <folder> for tar.gz and just change the z option to a j for bz2
[03:48] <mjr> freezey, anyway, a single card with dual monitor outputs is the easiest way probably
[03:48] <bimberi> aww ikonia, you're just jealous ;P
[03:48] <ClayPigeon> ikonia: fair point
[03:48] <ston> slackthumbz: thanks
[03:48] <slackthumbz> ston: but remember to specify the extension correctly when you create the file. For example; tar zcvf test.tar.gz randomFolder/
[03:48] <slackthumbz> or
[03:49] <bootsmorris> can yall tell me what packages i need to have installed to be able to compile programs from source
[03:49] <ikonia> freezey some can and some can't. If you can the ammount of horsepower your need per monitor will dictate if you need a second card or not
[03:49] <slackthumbz> tar zcvf test.tar.bz2 RandomFolder/
[03:49] <cute_bettong> just be aware that ati cards are really evil with ubuntu...wether you use dual monitors or not
[03:49] <slackthumbz> s/with ubuntu//;
[03:49] <slackthumbz> fixed
[03:50] <bimberi> s/z/j/
[03:50] <freezey> ikonia: i got the 2 flat screens... i dunno if 1 running analog an one running digital is even worth it
[03:50] <ikonia> freezey its nothing to do with the monitors, but the video cards
[03:50] <freezey> ikonia: i guess i will just try running onboard and video card
[03:50] <freezey> ikonia: does that have to be enabled in the bios? or on the system itself
[03:51] <xerophyte> I have long running script, if i run the script like  perl script_name.pl & and logout of the shell will it finish ? how can i run a script even i logout of the shell?
[03:51] <ikonia> freezey I don't know how your system works, it will need to be configured within the OS but Idon't know if you need to enable it in the bios
[03:51] <bootsmorris> can some one help me??
[03:51] <[GuS] > Hello!
[03:51] <ClayPigeon> bootsmorris: Depends on source. If it got a make file, type make it should tell you. I needed g++ and Feisty told me to get it.  :)
[03:51] <bootsmorris> ic
[03:51] <Pici> I'm having a problem mounting a smb share.  I'm getting an error that the mountpoint cannot be resolved.  I've tried removing the mountpoint, but I get an I/O error.
[03:51] <waseidel> hi
[03:52] <freezey> ikonia: i am just at work and they just gave me a dell optiplex 745 and i am moving my system over to that so i am just curious if i can do this
[03:52] <bootsmorris> do you anything about configuring wine
[03:52] <ikonia> freezey as I said it depends on your hardware
[03:52] <slackthumbz> bootsmorris: in the admin menu under preferences there is should be a winecfg app
[03:52] <waseidel> have a problem when I tried to use a genius webcam... I don't know how to install it... some one can helpme o say me how to?
[03:52] <nagyv> hello! how can I check if openGL is supported on my video driver?
[03:53] <bootsmorris> i need to run ms publisher for my job.  yesterday i installed it and it ran but when i loaded the file i was working on it said "Windows is running low on memory, close some programs and try again"
[03:53] <nagyv> waseidel: are you sure that it is not working?
[03:53] <waseidel> no
[03:53] <Hadron`> can anyone suggest why my pc cd drive button does not eject it anymore? I can eject from the bash command line using "eject" and from the context menu on the cd/dvd icon.
[03:53] <ClayPigeon> Not really. I use Cedega and Crossover. They seem to work quite well on their own. Never gone deeper. But I'm new to Linux. Old on Solaris though.
[03:53] <waseidel> i don't know I new in linux
[03:53] <nagyv> waseidel: for what would you like to use it?
[03:53] <LostCause> .org
[03:53] <waseidel> msn
[03:53] <waseidel> amsn
[03:53] <khermans> is there going to be an explicit #ubuntu-dell channel set up?
[03:54] <Nick_3>  [Juaz ] 
[03:54] <ikonia> khermans why would there be
[03:54] <bootsmorris> well i guess i am sol
[03:54] <nagyv> waseidel: I don't use amsn, but will try to help. Somewhere under settings/preferences is there a preview webcam possibility?
[03:54] <khermans> ikonia, i was thinking for support specifically on dell computers
[03:54] <ikonia> khermans there is no need for that
[03:54] <khermans> ikonia, why not?
[03:55] <ikonia> khermans all the chipsets dell use are covered in this channel so its no different from any other pc
[03:55] <bimberi> khermans: well there's no #ubuntu-system76
[03:55] <waseidel> well I'm not in my home now but I'll be back here when I'm at home
[03:55] <Spikbebi2> hello i made a real mess: in some way i have broken my edgy in the middle of upgrade to feisty. So i know sit with  mostly edgy and no "?ubuntu-desktop" (which seems vital to update-manager) and really dont know how to continnue. Any pointers on how to fix and finish upgrade to feisty is much welcome =)
[03:55] <waseidel> tnkz nagyv
[03:56] <slackthumbz> Spikbebi2: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop (?! not sure)
[03:56] <bootsmorris> does anyone else know anything about wine??
[03:56] <Trist_an> anyone knows where to get a .deb for thunderbird on Edgy?
[03:56] <khermans> ikonia, right, but Dell is going to officially start selling Ubuntu-preinstalled machines, and i thought it might help those with more specific questions, or who might want to pay for support
[03:56] <ikonia> khermans there is no dell specific questions as all the components are generic
[03:56] <khermans> is dell going to offer support?
[03:56] <Trist_an> so Dell choose Ubuntu
[03:56] <khermans> ikonia, i undrstand that
[03:56] <ikonia> khermans good
[03:56] <bimberi> Trist_an: packages.ubuntu.com
[03:56] <Spikbebi2> slackthumbz: i have tried: i got not met dependencies and missing things... no such luck in short.
[03:56] <nagyv> waseidel: it can happen that it won't work without installing a kernel module, but come back when you know this :)
[03:57] <slackthumbz> Spikbebi2: hmm, it might be worth trying with the synaptic package manager, it's somewhat more advanced than the default, I'm afraid I haven't had your problem so I can't really help too much
[03:58] <Spikbebi2> slackthumbz: ah havent tried that one. thank you
[03:58] <slackthumbz> Spikbebi2: I hope it helps
[03:58] <bootsmorris> Can anyone here help me with a problem I am having with Wine?
[03:59] <TheAberrant> Hi all, looking at partitioning schemes for a Dual Boot setup (winXp and Ubuntu FF). How large should I leave / with /var, /tmp, /usr, and /home being separate (and what is held in / other than those things...)
[03:59] <dyrne> somone here recommend favorite cobol compiler for linux/ubuntu? not sure which to use..just playing around to get better feel for mainframe stuff
[03:59] <loves2sp> Hey, i set up my vnc on ubuntu, but am having a issue. I am able to connect, and see the screen, but when i load a program or right click (even left click on menus), i see nothing. However, if i do it while looking at my actual screen for the VNC Server, i can see what is going on (as in the programs i load via the vnc client, ect). Is there a setting i'm missing?
[03:59] <afief> TheAberrant, just take 10GB for / (and all the rest) and however much you think you need for home
[03:59] <Spikbebi2> slackthumbz: i.. really dont think so, usuaally when i mess up apt etc is a good mess.. but i hate reinstalling... then i havent learned anythin (part from be more careful next time and dont do 3.14 things at the same time ;)
[03:59] <eXistenz> say I have a dir called wordpress inside a tar file, how can I directly extract the contents of wordpress into the current dir?
[04:00] <afief> dyrne, GCC
[04:00] <jago25> Everything freezes including all response from GUI. How do I diagnose that if I the only thing I can do is SysRq
[04:00] <bimberi> !find cobol
[04:00] <ubotu> Found: open-cobol
[04:00] <graveson> anyone seen this error while installing feisty : installed brltty-x11. my install hangs there
[04:00] <^em^me^> why can't i find "mail" to send/read mail locally? any other name or alternative?
[04:00] <bimberi> dyrne:  ^^
[04:00] <slackthumbz> Spikbebi2: lol, good luck
[04:00] <bimberi> ^em^me^: install mailx
[04:00] <variant> ^em^me^: apt-get install mailx
[04:00] <^em^me^> bimberi: variant ok
[04:01] <SithToast> Hey guys, I get grub error 22, even though my partitions are listed right o______o
[04:01] <TheAberrant> afief: Thanks
[04:01] <^em^me^> bimberi: variant: what about postfix?
[04:01] <freezey> ikonia: ok so when i boot i got a system halted! Attention: Unsupported Video COnfiguration Detected   it tells me that the computer has an add-in graphics card, but the monitor is plugged nto the intergrated video connector...
[04:02] <freezey> not sure of this would mean that it doesnt support it
[04:02] <^em^me^> it's an alternative MTA ?
[04:02] <afief> TheAberrant, don't make partitions for all the /var and /boot ...etc stuff, just / and /home(works best for home IMO)
[04:02] <ikonia> freezey looks like your motherboard doesn't like both onboard and external video being enabled at the same time
[04:02] <bimberi> ^em^me^: yes, but it doesn't include a client
[04:02] <|ericsson|> !scp
[04:02] <ubotu> SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/
[04:03] <|ericsson|> !search scp
[04:03] <ubotu> Found: winscp, scp
[04:03] <^em^me^> bimberi: If i'd like to use it which client would you recommend?
[04:03] <graveson> anyone seen this error while installing feisty : installed brltty-x11. my install hangs there
[04:04] <clever> !ssh
[04:04] <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/
[04:04] <bimberi> ^em^me^: I use evolution (but don't have a local mta)
[04:05] <bootsmorris> i need some expert help
[04:05] <TheAberrant> afief: I'm trying to get experience with managing the partitions - plus I'm learning enough to be dangerous, so I want to be able to recover from anything I do to my system
[04:05] <HeadDown> hello, I have nforce 680i chipset and network doesn't work. Does anyone knows how to solve this ?
[04:05] <slackthumbz> bootsmorris: it might be worth going to the wine website and checking their forums, they are the experts in wine after-all
[04:05] <^em^me^> bimberi: thanks :-)
[04:05] <bootsmorris> i am very new at linux and know next to nothing.  what packages to i need to install to be able to compile programs from source
[04:05] <bimberi> ^em^me^: yw :)
[04:06] <bootsmorris> i did that and it didnt help me
[04:06] <KenSentMe> Since this afternoon i can't start postfix on my Ubuntu Dapper. I haven't changed anything in my config but the logs show this error: postfix: fatal: dict_open_dlinfo: Expected "pattern .so-name open-function [mkmap-function] " at line 1. Anyone know how i can fix this?
[04:06] <afief> TheAberrant, this way you might lose your system settings, but your personal preferences are in your home partition anyway
[04:06] <bootsmorris> i dont think it installed right that is why i ask about compiling from source
[04:06] <slackthumbz> bootsmorris: I think there's a package called build-tools that will pull in all the items you need for compiling but I'm not sure
[04:07] <Flannel> !compile | bootsmorris
[04:07] <ubotu> bootsmorris: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[04:07] <bootsmorris> do i apt-get it or add/remove it??
[04:07] <Flannel> slackthumbz, bootsmorris: it's build-essential, but that wiki page will include lots of other goodies as well.  And, use whatever package management you like.  Although, I imagine it's not in add/remove, but synaptic will haveit
[04:07] <TheAberrant> afief: If I don't keep /usr separate wouldn't I lose my installed packages as well, or are those installed into /home?
[04:08] <slackthumbz> sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[04:08] <ClayPigeon> bootsmorris: Instead of recompiling wine, I suggest you try (30 days) Crossover from Codeweavers
[04:08] <bimberi> slackthumbz: build-essential (no s)
[04:08] <slackthumbz> TheAberrant: packages aren't installed to /home unless you compile them specifically to install there
[04:08] <slackthumbz> bimberi: thanks :)
[04:08] <bootsmorris> thnx
[04:09] <bimberi> slackthumbz: np :)
[04:09] <afief> TheAberrant, packages go either into /usr/bin or /usr/sbin or /bin... personally I prefer saving a list of my installed packages(through dpkg) in my home partition and then apt-get them when i restore, since I most likely will have lost some essential part of them anyway
[04:09] <loves2sp> Anyone know anything about the VNC server for ubuntu? i'm running version 7
[04:09] <afief> TheAberrant, by the way, it's often better NOT to do that, as it'll save space for age old packages you no longer need
[04:10] <loves2sp> of ubuntu that is
[04:10] <afief> loves2sp, there is no such thing as version 7, you mean 7.04 which is feisty fawn
[04:10] <agathe> salut
[04:10] <agathe> cul
[04:10] <afief> agathe, please check channels in your local language
[04:10] <webjames> will OpenMoko be supported by Ubuntu?
[04:11] <loves2sp> agathe: yes, feisty. I just can't seem to do anything in the VNC client
[04:11] <loves2sp> agathe: it's weird
[04:11] <LjL> !fr
[04:11] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:11] <agathe> ccccccccc
[04:11] <afief> loves2sp: I think gnome comes with Vino preinstalled
[04:11] <webjames> !info openmoko
[04:11] <ubotu> Package openmoko does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:12] <TheAberrant> afief: Ah, awesome - thanks for the info.  Is it possible to script getting that list and script apt-getting from the text file?  Just curious - I'll prolly look into it eventually myself
[04:12] <graveson> anyone seen this error while installing feisty : installed brltty-x11. my install hangs there
[04:12] <nightwatch> hi there, I got many problems trying to install java6-plugin in feisty 64bits, have anybody installed it successfuly?
[04:12] <slackthumbz> !info aircrack-ng
[04:12] <ClayPigeon> Anyone here knows how the Solaris packages work? I'm asking, because I'm wondering if same applies to Linux packages (I know there are variations)
[04:12] <ubotu> aircrack-ng: wireless WEP/WPA cracking utilities. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.6.2-7ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 186 kB, installed size 528 kB
[04:12] <slackthumbz> nice
[04:12] <nightwatch> I couldnot even find it in feisty repositories
[04:12] <afief> TheAberrant, yeah it's possible to do that, although i just do it manually most of the time(since stuff you compile manually won't work that way)
[04:13] <loves2sp> afief: Yeah, it does. I set it up, but i can't see any programs i load, or any actions i perform. I just see the Desktop. However, in my actual Desktop box (the one with the VNC server), i am able too see all the actions being performed.
[04:13] <loves2sp> afief: i have no idea why
[04:13] <slackthumbz> ClayPigeon: solaris's package management is pathetic, slowaris packages are usually just tarballs which are untarred from the / and then drop file sinto relevant places, they have no dependency handling AFAIK and can be an arse to remove. The apt system is infinitely better
[04:14] <afief> loves2sp: perhaps it's signing in as a seperate user? as in two sessions for the same user, one goes to vino and the other to your screen?
[04:14] <nagyv> what is the preferred graphical irc client under ubuntu? after being a happy kubuntu user, I have decided to look over to gnome. Is there something more useful than gaim? I would like to have at least sound notice if someone types my nick, and be able to reopen the chat window after having it minimized to the systray
[04:14] <slackthumbz> nagyv: GAIM is probably the best multi-purpose chat client and it handles IRC
[04:14] <jgalvin1> for irc, use xchat or kvirc or similar
[04:15] <LjL> kvirc isn't exactly GNOME though ;-)
[04:15] <slackthumbz> personally I think irssi is the best irc client evar, but it's not graphical
[04:15] <LjL> there is xchat and xchat-gnome, the latter is more integrated but way less featureful
[04:15] <nagyv> slackthumbz: it handles irc, I am also able to cook an egg on my computer. Still I am not use to do so. :)
[04:15] <nagyv> thanks
[04:15] <loves2sp> afief: i'm not sure, i think it defaults to my current user/desktop. It even see's the screen savor/lock. And it will only let me put in a password, no username (for the vnc client)
[04:16] <afief> TheAberrant, dpkg --get-selections
[04:16] <LjL> nagyv: alternatives are loqui and lostirc, however they're just GTK (not GNOME) like xchat, and i think most people use xchat
[04:16] <afief> loves2sp: I have no experience with vino actually, but you might need to set it up to "spy" on your loaded session
[04:17] <TheAberrant> afief: Ahhh, good to know.  I'm planning on trying to get into dev, so I'll probably run into that issue.  Thanks for the help, I'll re-think my partitioning scheme.
[04:17] <oda> hm...
[04:17] <a5benwillis> Is there a way to tell Ubuntu to NOT beep when I backspace to far in a term window OR when I scroll to the end of the buffer??
[04:18] <bootsmorris> can anyone give me some advice pertaining to WINE

[04:19] <a5benwillis> argh, still doing it lol
[04:20] <surgy> a5benwillis: just unplug your system speaker from you mother board, or unplug your keyboard
[04:20] <MoL1> bootsmorris: you still there - ask away.
[04:20] <graveson> anyone seen this error while installing feisty : installed brltty-x11. my install hangs there
[04:20] <Luf1> good after noon.
[04:20] <a5benwillis> surgy: Huh? This is a laprop
[04:20] <bootsmorris> i installed wine on ff and then i installed ms office 2003 b/c i need the publisher.  When i run publisher everything goes fine until i load a file that i have been working on and then it tells me that Windows is running low on disk space please close some prograns and try again.
[04:20] <a5benwillis> s/laprop/laptop
[04:21] <surgy> a5benwillis: ok the scratch the part about unplugging the keyboard, just pop the keyboard off, or the back panel whichever may be the case, and rip the little system speaker out
[04:21] <MoL1> bootsmorris: which version of wine are you using?
[04:21] <bootsmorris> 0.9.36 i think whatever the newest one off of the wine site is
[04:22] <a5benwillis> LOL. so theres no way to disable it in Ubuntu then. Thanks!
[04:22] <surgy> a5benwillis: i didnt say that
[04:22] <Toma-> bootsmorris: have you checked it against appdb.wine.org?
[04:22] <TheAberrant> a5bewillis: There might be an option in your bios - found that with an older laptop of mine (forget the type tho)  I'd mess around in there too ust to see
[04:23] <Toma-> bootsmorris: sorry, appdb.winehq.org
[04:23] <bootsmorris> yea it is a bronze program but they didnt have this error
[04:23] <bootsmorris> it is office 2003
[04:24] <MoL1> bootsmorris: which wine environment are you running it in? Win2K, WinXP or Win2003?
[04:25] <bootsmorris> 2000
[04:25] <variant> bootsmorris: how are you running it, what command?
[04:26] <dieman> wow

[04:26] <strabes> it's kind of scary actually
[04:26] <variant> bootsmorris: cool, the way you should be :)
[04:27] <sakhi> Hi all
[04:27] <MoL1> bootsmorris: I'd probably try running it in winxp or win2003 environment to see if the error was persistent.
[04:28] <bootsmorris> ok I broke my system last night and it is currently upgrading so i cant install wine right now but i will be able to shortly.

[04:30] <nrdb> Hi I am trying to install wine, but I am having trouble, it seems that wine depends on gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly but when apt-get goes to install this I get an error message "files list file for package `gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly' contains empty filename" and apt-get quits before installing wine :( can anyone help ?
[04:30] <DBO> Ranbee, its not unheard of, but you should get the key to make that message go away, google will bear fruit
[04:30] <surgy> nrdb: just "sudo apt-get install wine
[04:30] <engla> Ranbee: something is wrong with the package signing. Unfortunately, I can't tell you the cause because there seem to be many different

[04:32] <hoarycripple> how can i find all packages from a certain 3rd party repository and remove them?
[04:32] <nrdb> surgy: same problem :(
[04:32] <DBO> surgy, what are you using to calibrate?
[04:33] <surgy> nrdb: you need to re trace your steps and make absolutely sure its not on your end, check your sources.list and everything else associated, and if that doesnt work then assume the repo is screwed
[04:33] <compengi> DBO, lol
[04:33] <surgy> DBO: pSX and Mupen64, im running kubuntu, but noone in #kubuntu could help so i thought id drop by here, i cant find an os calibration suite
[04:34] <DBO> surgy, check out jscalibrator
[04:34] <DBO> surgy, its in feisty repos, but it is GTK, take what you can get though
[04:34] <surgy> DBO: ok let me try that, is that the package name?
[04:34] <nrdb> I am using the repos setup by synaptic and I have tried both the australian repos and the 'main' ones.
[04:34] <DBO> yes
[04:35] <sharms> Can anyone tell me what problems are bugging you with the current fglrx driver?
[04:35] <surgy> DBO: installing now
[04:35] <alg> Hi everyone. Could you please point me where it's written how to submit a software to the repositories? I believe, the Universe is the right place for the free non-commercial software package?
[04:35] <nrdb> surgy: I tried deleteing the appropiate file from the apt cache, that didn't help
[04:35] <DBO> sharms, complete and total lock of support for composite or TFP?
[04:35] <Detox_at_Work> does a lampp isntall include a WM?
[04:36] <DBO> Detox_at_Work, you want to know if a server install comes with X?  no

[04:38] <wojtano> the sound doesnt work
[04:38] <tommus> Hi guys, I got a bit of a problem and I need to start up my windows-partition in failsafe. Anyone know how I go about this? That is, booting windows in fail-safe from grub.
[04:38] <Ranpha1> Does the livecd of Feisty have virtualbox and ndiswrapper installed (or  driver for wg11t?usb)
[04:39] <alg> DBO, hm, ok thanks
[04:39] <nrdb> DBO: when installing wine it also installs gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly which gives the error "files list file for package `gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly' contains empty filename"
[04:39] <jedi__> can anyone help on macbook-touchpad - feisty ?
[04:39] <DBO> nrdb, did you try "sudo apt-get install gstream0.10-plugins-ugly"
[04:39] <surgy> DBO: lol seams to work fine now, except that i need three more buttons :(
[04:39] <belou> is there a known bug about edgy and sound ?
[04:39] <markc> tommus:  don't just boot to windows as per normal and hold F8... or something ?
[04:39] <surgy> DBO: jscalibrator is not giving me enough buttons
[04:40] <DBO> surgy, there is another package called joystick
[04:40] <DBO> surgy, try that?
[04:40] <switchon> hi
[04:40] <tommus> markc: i tried the F8 holding, pushing and even mashing but got nothing. i think the grub-loader over-rides such possibilities. =/
[04:40] <switchon> was ist ubuntu?
[04:40] <nrdb> DBO: yes a couple of times, I also deleted the apt cache file, to get it to download it again, it just doesn't want to work :(
[04:40] <DBO> wojtano, erm... did you select your sound card int he sound properties
[04:40] <DBO> nrdb, mind if I send it to you?
[04:40] <wojtano> i can't install my sb live! 24 - I don't have sound :/
[04:41] <surgy> DBO: ok will try
[04:41] <wojtano> how can I do that? (newbie)
[04:41] <Luf1> I have got some idea to replace windows on my family's computer, but I do have some requirements that should be met: 1. Internet Explorer that supports hebrew. 2. Maybe support for microsoft office 2000. Who complex that should be?
[04:41] <DBO> wojtano, open a terminal and run gnome-control-center
[04:41] <DBO> click on "sound"
[04:41] <compengi> wojtano, is it creative sound blaster live 24?
[04:41] <letharion> How do I autostart a deamon?
[04:41] <aro> Internet Explorer in Ubuntu? No....just no....
[04:42] <surgy> DBO: its reading the triggers as axis
[04:42] <DBO> surgy, well its so smart
[04:42] <wojtano> yes
[04:42] <michaelpo> what software do i use to check if my harddisk has any error or bad sectors?
[04:42] <DBO> surgy, the triggers ARE axis
[04:42] <jgalvin1> i would like to use internet explorer in linux
[04:42] <wojtano> it's creative with 5.1
[04:42] <compengi> wojtano, check the volume maybe it's muted
[04:42] <jgalvin1> i have to access some websites that are IE only
[04:42] <Luf1> by the way, I'm a linux user myself, I just never had the use those
[04:42] <jedi__> how can i change the bootscreen usplash on feisty? - _not_ the login-screen ...
[04:42] <aro> If you want IE go use Windows
[04:42] <mjohnson> Could someone recommend an Nvidia card that will get autorecognized and use twinview (for dual monitors)? Or do they just all work pretty much?
[04:42] <letharion> jgalvin1: I've succesfully installed IE with wine.
[04:43] <jgalvin1> thats a lame response aro
[04:43] <aro> I haven't seen an IE only website in probably 5 years
[04:43] <nrdb> DBO: nope, my email is nrdb01 at butterflystitches dot com dot au
[04:43] <jgalvin1> there are quite a few of them
[04:43] <aro> Like?
[04:43] <jgalvin1> bullhorn.com
[04:43] <Luf1> aro, sadly, most useful israelli site are IE only. They are improving, but slowly
[04:43] <surgy> DBO: then why wont mupen pick them up?
[04:43] <jgalvin1> i saw some others mentioned on slashdot the other day too
[04:44] <baskitcaise> aro:WU ? ;-)
[04:44] <aro> I'm at bullhorn.com using Firefox and it looks fine, is there some aspect of this site that isn't accessible without IE?
[04:44] <wojtano> i checked and it was muted but I grow up volume and volume is still quiet
[04:44] <jgalvin1> yes aro
[04:44] <jgalvin1> you can't log in
[04:44] <uadrian> I have some 'serious' problems caused by ndiswrapper, since I installed my wifi driver, every reboot freezing (ubuntu and windows aswell, and only reboot. turn off turn on perfect). Anyone have any idea what to do?
[04:44] <Luf1> Today may mom found out that she can't check her bank acount as IE crashes (as it sucks) and the site is anti-fox
[04:44] <michaelpo> hi.. what software do i use to edit video? crop video?
[04:45] <jedi__> how can i change the bootscreen usplash on feisty?
[04:45] <jgalvin1> the largest web-based front office staffing solution in the world
[04:45] <DBO> surgy, who knows, but those triggers are pressure sensative and thus are axis
[04:45] <tommus>  I got a bit of a problem and I need to start up my windows-partition in failsafe. Anyone know how I go about this? That is, booting windows in fail-safe from grub.
[04:45] <aro> You'd think they would have a working website for all browsers
[04:45] <loves2sp> Does anyone know anything about the default service for VNC on fiesty?
[04:46] <uadrian> tommus, you mean windows XP safemode from Grub?
[04:46] <tommus> uadrian: yes
[04:46] <baskitcaise> tommus: F8 wirks here, are you using a usb keyboard?
[04:46] <uadrian> tommus, keep pressing F8 right after choosing the Windows from grub
[04:46] <tommus> baskitcaise: yea, usb & wireless keyboard.
[04:46] <nrdb> DBO: how did you do that, it appeared to start the transfer but stoped ???
[04:46] <letharion> What command manages autostarting of deamons?
[04:46] <DBO> nrdb, it finished, you have the file
[04:47] <uadrian> tommus, in that case you should config your BIOS to handle USB keyboard virtually
[04:47] <ziggy23> hi I get my printer to print, but the top the web page header is cut off.  Suggestions, anyone?
[04:47] <baskitcaise> could be that the keyboard is not sending the press quick enough, got a ps/2 conevrter?
[04:47] <wojtano> ohhh... i finally install my sound card but two of speakers don't work
[04:47] <DBO> wojtano, are you watching something with 5.1 sound?
[04:47] <wojtano> yes
[04:47] <nrdb> DBO: yes, the terminal was in the wrong directory thanks, how did you do that ?
[04:48] <dyrne> hoarycripple: did you figure that out yet?
[04:48] <DBO> nrdb, I right clicked on your name and selected "send file"
[04:48] <surgy> DBO: is there anyway to use them as just regular buttons?
[04:48] <ubuntugeek> !automatix
[04:48] <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
[04:48] <michaelpo> what software is recommended for editing video? crop video files? avi, wmv, mpg, etc
[04:48] <DBO> surgy, im sure there is but I would be the wrong person to ask
[04:48] <wojtano> mp3 are using 5.1 ?
[04:48] <DBO> wojtano, no
[04:48] <DBO> wojtano, mp3's are generally stereo
[04:49] <tommus> uadrian: i'll try getting a non-usb keyboard out first but if that dont cut it, i'll do that
[04:49] <compengi> wojtano, mp3 use 2 speakers only
[04:49] <wojtano> but in windows all speakers run when mp3 was played
[04:49] <ydo> hi, I've trouble with my sd card on my newly installed ubuntu feisty. card is only found after rebooting with card in slot, not after insert, what to do?
[04:49] <DBO> wojtano, you can play with the sound settings to tell it to do that if you want
[04:49] <nrdb> DBO: it doesn't work, do you want the output of 'sudo dpkg --install ....' ?
[04:49] <uadrian> tommus: that stuff takes like 5 seconds in BIOS :) some USB keyboard support: Enabled (bios dependant)
[04:49] <DBO> nrdb, yes i do =)
[04:49] <baskitcaise> wojtano: try using alsamixergui to configure the extra speakers
[04:50] <wojtano> ok
[04:50] <wojtano> i'll try
[04:50] <DBO> nrdb, but if its too long, use pastebin
[04:50] <dyrne> ydo: is that just for automount or does removing readding the card and doing dmesg | tail not show a sda1 or whatever?
[04:50] <baskitcaise> wojtano: there is a switch on the far right of the mixer window that enables the extra speakers, this is going from old old memory
[04:51] <uadrian> I have some 'serious' problems caused by ndiswrapper, since I installed my wifi driver, every reboot freezing (ubuntu and windows aswell, and only reboot. turn off turn on perfect). Anyone have any idea what to do?
[04:51] <DBO> nrdb, try installing it with a --force-all flag
[04:51] <coolgeek> can some one explain what screen is please?
[04:52] <coolgeek> in lamers terms
[04:52] <ydo> dyrne: insert does show anything in dmesg. modprobe tifm_sd doesnt show anything
[04:52] <DBO> coolgeek, multiplayer terminal
[04:52] <letharion> coolgeek: It's like tabs, for a terminal
[04:52] <coolgeek> DBO: can you explain a little further,
[04:52] <letharion> uadrian: Are you saying a linux install of ndiswrapper messed up your windows install?
[04:53] <DBO> coolgeek, it lets you set up a terminal "session" that never really goes away until you specifically close it.  So you can always access the same session over SSH from different machines.  Multiple machines may also be in the same session.
[04:53] <coolgeek> DBO: ok i sorta understand. So is it only used for remote connections via ssh?
[04:53] <Possum> coolgeek, you can run a program in screen, detach the screen, and the program runs in the background... you can reattach the screen later and the program will still be running... very useful to stay on IRC all the time :)
[04:53] <uadrian> letharion, not quite. If I start my ubuntu with the ndiswrapper installed. Works fine. Wifi perfect. I want to reboot to windows (or either back to ubuntu). Reboots started from Ubuntu crashing 100%. Only turn off helps
[04:53] <DBO> coolgeek, generally yes
[04:54] <coolgeek> DBO: so you wouldnt use it from within gnome
[04:54] <DBO> coolgeek, pretty much, that is correct
[04:54] <ston> is file .bashrc in every home folder??
[04:54] <DBO> ston, no, but you can put one there if you like
[04:54] <brussel_> stupid question probably, how do i login to an account that i've forgotten the password of?
[04:55] <coolgeek> DBO: ok so can you give me a bit of an example.  I am using Putty to connect to my box at the momment
[04:55] <nrdb> DBO: no complaints from dpkg, but when I went to install wine again it said it was doing 1 upgrade and 1 install, and failed on the gstreamer again :(
[04:55] <DBO> brussel_, do you have access to the root account still?
[04:55] <brussel_> dbo, yes
[04:55] <letharion> uadrian: I don't quite get it. Can you start ubuntu or not?
[04:55] <DBO> brussel_, su <account>
[04:55] <brussel_> dbo, thanks
[04:55] <ston> DBO: but i do not have .bashrc in my home folder ( it isn't /root )
[04:56] <DBO> ston, aaaand?
[04:56] <Uriku> say
[04:56] <uadrian> letharion, yes im writing here now. But if I call a Reboot, it will freeze on boot for 100%. If I remove ndiswrapper, everything perfect. If I turn off and turn on the comp instead of reboot, works.
[04:56] <ston> DBO : and should it be there, shouldn't it??
[04:56] <Uriku> what does the DVD has that the CD doesn't?
[04:56] <DBO> nrdb, argh...  give me the full output at www.pastebin.com
[04:56] <DBO> ston, do you need it?
[04:57] <ston> DBO: maybe
[04:57] <thelostpatrol> are there logitech mouse drivers for linux?
[04:57] <letharion> coolgeek: An example of using screen in that situation would be running a console command that takes very long to finish (perhaps a compilation). If that command is run in a screen, you can close putty, and the command will still run.
[04:57] <jhaig> Uriku: I think that the DVD has both the standard install and the alternative install.
[04:57] <DBO> ston, hehe, then make one, it's not a needed file, do you know how to see hidden files anyway? =)
[04:57] <Uriku> err alternative install?
[04:57] <letharion> uadrian: ah, ok. I don't think I can help you with that then. sry
[04:57] <ston> DBO : ls -a
[04:58] <ydo> ston: you can copy a standard one from /etc/skel/
[04:58] <wojtano> hello, i treid with my film in dvd (with 5.1)
[04:58] <DBO> ston, ok, then why the worry... just "touch ~/.bashrc" and now you have one, feel free to do with it as you wish
[04:58] <TheAberrant> Is 512 Mb enough for an emergency /boot partition? (leaving room for future updates...)
[04:58] <Possum> coolgeek, another example is running irssi to connect to bitlbee in IRC in screen, ssh in, attach the screen, and you can get any messages people sent you on aim/yim, etc. while you were away
[04:58] <wojtano> but two speakers dont work
[04:58] <jhaig> Uriku: Install without booting up into the live CD system.
[04:58] <Uriku> just that?
[04:58] <coolgeek> letharion: could i also get into a new tab to start perfoming other functions?
[04:58] <ston> DBO : or cat > ~/.bashrc ??
[04:58] <jhaig> Uriku: The install is the same but the install method is different.
[04:58] <uadrian> letharion, do you have any idea how can I filter it for sure what part of linux freezing on boot? only syslog? how can I hide that bootup splash and see the loading lines line in the old ubuntus?
[04:58] <letharion> TheAberrant: 512mb is probably more than enough for a /boot
[04:58] <Possum> coolgeek, very useful... you can come up with some creative purposes :)
[04:58] <jhaig> Uriku: Yes, as I understand it, that is it.
[04:59] <DBO> ston, if you wanna abuse cat, sure =P
[04:59] <ston> :PPP
[04:59] <nevermore> When I come back from Suspend, my keybaord stops responding.
[04:59] <Uriku> :s
[04:59] <Possum> coolgeek, Try /join #screen, hopefully they'll be pretty helpful :)
[04:59] <ston> na razie
[04:59] <nevermore> Why?
[04:59] <letharion> coolgeek: Yes, you could run several terminals in one putty.
[04:59] <coolgeek> Possum: Could i connect via SSH then once in open irssi, then change tab and be looking at bash, then be able to change back between irssi and bash
[04:59] <letharion> uadrian: I'm sorry, I now a bit about linux in general, but nearly nothing about ubuntu.
[04:59] <Ahmuck> !mount
[04:59] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[04:59] <letharion> coolgeek: I suggest you give it a try :)
[05:00] <ydo> on sd card problems: insert doesn't show anything in dmesg. modprobe tifm_sd doesnt show anything. booting up with card in slot works until removal of card. anyone?
[05:00] <t1g3r> hello, i wonder what ive done wrong here..
[05:00] <Adamantinus> Is there a way to get mirroring using beryl? As in same image on two screens?
[05:00] <letharion> coolgeek: That's the best way to learn after all :)
[05:00] <TheAberrant> letharion: Thanks.  I'll try it out with 256 then at first - can later change if I find I need to.
[05:00] <Adamantinus> I know dual monitor isn't possible, but I thought mirroring might be.
[05:00] <timmi> gaim or kopete? oder something else, what do you prefer?
[05:00] <t1g3r> i inserted the cd for installing feisty this time
[05:00] <ydo> dyrne: no further clues?
[05:00] <nrdb> DBO: see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18813/
[05:00] <DBO> Adamantinus, what video card?
[05:00] <t1g3r> and got the original boot screen
[05:00] <Adamantinus> 6600GT
[05:00] <t1g3r> i choose install/start ubuntu
[05:01] <t1g3r> and it loads the kernel, with a list of dos like messages
[05:01] <Pelo> ydo,  I think I saw something in the forum regarding this when browsing for usb problems ,  have a look
[05:01] <t1g3r> then presents a username pass screen straightaway
[05:01] <t1g3r> :/
[05:01] <t1g3r> im supp to get the gnome desktop with the install icon
[05:01] <t1g3r> but i just get a usename password prompt which i havent even had a chance to setup yet
[05:01] <t1g3r> any ideas?
[05:01] <ydo> Pelo: I've been googling but couldn't find anything useful..
[05:02] <Ahmuck> how do i mount a usb drive and get it to stay ?
[05:02] <DBO> nrdb, i donno... worked for me, locale settings maybe?
[05:02] <Pelo> ydo,  www.ubuntuforums.com
[05:02] <linnuxxy> how to disable the desktop effect from the shell?
[05:02] <t1g3r> Pelo, hey yest i burnt the image on anoter cd and this time the kernel loaded!
[05:02] <DBO> linnuxxy, metacity --replace &
[05:02] <t1g3r> but now i have a diff problem 
[05:02] <Pelo> t1g3r, I think I heard of this,  try  ubuntu for a username and nothing for a password
[05:02] <t1g3r> ok sure
[05:02] <t1g3r> brb i guess ill try that and get back to you
[05:03] <Adamantinus> So nobody knows how to do mirroring using beryl on a 6600GT?
[05:03] <Pelo> t1g3r, if that doesn'T work check the forum
[05:03] <t1g3r> sure
[05:03] <letharion> How do I make apache start everytime ubuntu starts?
[05:03] <wojtano> anyway thanks DBO for help (later i'll find a way to turn on all speakers)
[05:03] <Pelo> Adamantinus,  you might want to ask in #beryl
[05:03] <Adamantinus> Oh okay.
[05:03] <Adamantinus> Will do.
[05:03] <wojtano> #ubuntu-pl
[05:03] <nrdb> DBO: as this is quite a new install I might just reinstall fiesty, is there any way to get the install not to change the hdd rdb block ?
[05:03] <Pelo> letharion,  menu > system > prefts > sessions
[05:03] <nrdb> DBO: that is not do the grub stuff
[05:04] <letharion> Pelo: Thanks :)
[05:04] <Pelo> np
[05:04] <DBO> nrdb, not that I know of, the alternative install CD might give you more options there though
[05:05] <Pelo> later folks,
[05:05] <nrdb> DBO: ok, thanks for the help, I leaned a couple of things.
[05:05] <comrade`phil> hmm
[05:06] <comrade`phil> damn xchat
[05:06] <uadrian> is there any way to make sure to unload a module on reboot? or they doing it automatically?
[05:07] <variant> uadrian: modules are unloaded on reboot...
[05:07] <variant> uadrian: when the system switches off :)
[05:07] <Luf1> another question, can I tryout how well I can work my modem from the live CD? It's a eciadsl kind modem, and when I tried using it last time (approx. 2 years ago on debian) it went all wrong
[05:07] <DBO> uadrian, what is the problem you are having?
[05:07] <Ahmuck> how do i mount a usb drive and get it to stay ?
[05:07] <DBO> !mtab
[05:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mtab - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:07] <DBO> you're worthless ubotu
[05:07] <variant> Luf1: possibly, you may have to install some other application thats not included on the live cd
[05:07] <ivan> ciao a tutti
[05:07] <letharion> Ahmuck: I don't understand your question, stay?
[05:07] <retarded> could anyone provide me with a link concerning 7.04 server ?? when i google it i only find vmware related pages :( .. i have an eror when booting the cd . intel rom aborts.. .
[05:07] <DBO> !tell Ahmuck about mount
[05:08] <WC`> O_o
[05:08] <Ahmuck> keep the same id.  is there a way to set a usb hard drive permantly in fstab?
[05:08] <DBO> Ahmuck, google UUID
[05:08] <uadrian> DBO, like described below, the ndiswrapper makes every of my reboots 100% freezing on boot time. So I cant reboot now only turn off and turn on. Thought it fails to unload the module or dont know :(
[05:08] <variant> AMD_XP: yeah, using the UUID
[05:08] <ivan> qualcuno dal italia
[05:08] <DBO> but basically, depending on how you format it, maybe
[05:08] <bobbob1016> I've been trying to get embedded videos working in swiftfox, and nothing has seemed to work so far, can anyone help me get embedded videos to work?
[05:08] <variant> AMD_XP: yeah, using the UUID
[05:08] <krishghosh> hi guys, any solution to record audio streaming in ubuntu ?
[05:08] <DBO> variant, 3rd times the charm
[05:09] <variant> DBO: some mad problem with nick completion here.. a script i wrot is interfering
[05:09] <thelostpatrol> are there logitech mouse drivers for linux?
[05:09] <variant> thelostpatrol: yes
[05:09] <DBO> uadrian, you could do a shutdown script the specifically unload it if you want...
[05:10] <variant> thelostpatrol: the generic mouse driver covers virtually every mouse device and keyboards
[05:10] <uadrian> DBO, would that be modprobe -r ndiswrapper?
[05:11] <DBO> uadrian, you, and make that script executable, named S03disablewireless in /etc/rc6.d/
[05:11] <Luf1> Ahh, I'll just have to find out...
[05:11] <krishghosh> hi guys, any solution to record audio streaming in ubuntu ?
[05:11] <ydo> can I get the ubuntu generic kernel .config from somewhere? extract it from the source-package?
[05:11] <ydo> it should be in /proc/config.gz imho
[05:11] <DBO> Luf1, yes you can check your modem from the live CD
[05:11] <dyrne> krishghosh: what format? like a radio station?
[05:11] <uadrian> DBO, ok gonna try but its still in the lsmod list :) argh. How can I check, on what part my boot fails? Only syslog?
[05:11] <kenthomson> HELP; I have been at this since 12 hours at a go, and 4 days in general. All i want to do is get my display at 1440x900@75Hz. I read all the community documentation, read the nvidia readme, tinkered like HELL with the xorg.conf, reset it, everything! Still no luck. I AM SERIOUSLY PISSED. Please help :-(
[05:11] <jrib> krishghosh: if mplayer can play it you can do:  mplayer -dumpstream url_of_media
[05:11] <thelostpatrol> variant - where would i be able to find such a thing as logitech drivers?
[05:11] <void^> ydo: there's config-* files in /boot
[05:11] <krishghosh> dyrne: yes
[05:12] <variant> thelostpatrol: are you having issues with your mouse?
[05:12] <bobbob1016> I've tried the VLC, Totem, and Mplayer plugins, and still nothing is playing in swiftfox, can anyone help?
[05:12] <tholme> Hey, how do I install Kerberos ? the command 'sudo apt-get install kadmin or krb5kdc' does not work....anyone who can help me with this? :)
[05:12] <variant> thelostpatrol: they are built into linux (the kernel)
[05:12] <dyrne> krishghosh: mplayer but i use streamripper for shoutcast stations and such
[05:12] <ydo> void^: k ty
[05:12] <letharion> kenthomson: You need to be a bit more specific about where you get problems
[05:12] <variant> thelostpatrol: apt-cache search kerberos
[05:12] <DBO> uadrian, Im really confused how a reboot would cause that issue to be honest
[05:12] <kenthomson> letharion: i am not getting the 75hz resolution in the display dialog box
[05:12] <DBO> I mean from the OS point of view, there is very little difference
[05:12] <krishghosh> thanks dyrne, jrib : how about recording from flash players online?
[05:13] <yxairyggen> When I try to create a quake3 server with OSP quake crashes with the message Sys_Error: recursive error after: MAX_CVARS
[05:13] <yxairyggen> Shutdown tty console
[05:13] <Jakke77> alt+F2 ... free the fish
[05:13] <uadrian> DBO, me too but believe me, as soon as I remove the PRISM driver from NDISwrapper, works like a charm!
[05:13] <letharion> I want to install mysql, but no package is named "just" mysql, or mysql5 or something. What package should I look for?
[05:13] <jrib> krishghosh: keepvid.com
[05:13] <variant> krishghosh: you can record directly from the ethernet port which is a little advanced but it's one way to dump that kind of stream
[05:13] <uadrian> letharion, mysql-common I believe
[05:13] <kenthomson> can ANNYYYOOOONNNNNEEEEEE help me? :-(
[05:13] <Vuen> hey guys, how do i get the username of the user in a bash script?

[05:16] <jrib> kenthomson: stop that please
[05:16] <bobbob1016> kenthomson, shouldn't get an answer for an long time now
[05:16] <ikonia> kenthomson give it a rest, this is why you constantly get banned
[05:16] <Terrasque> kenthomson: try smashing the screen with a hammer.
[05:17] <AaronMT> !patience > kenthomson
[05:17] <ydo> how can I see which devices a kernel module registers?
[05:17] <letharion> kenthomson: I don't really have any doubts that the monitor can do 75hz, I'm more wondering if it's relevant to a LCD-panel.
[05:17] <ikonia> ydo the syslog will show you device detection
[05:17] <LjL> kenthomson, won't you just try doing a standard  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg  and select 75Hz when asked? (select "Medium" settings for monitor selection)
[05:17] <LjL> LCD panel?!
[05:17] <neverblue2> i am trying to setup dual monitors, one an Intel (works fine), the other is an ATI Rage XL.  I am getting "screens found, but none have a usable config".  Would this have something to do with my driver (using radeon) ?
[05:17] <kenthomson> LjL: only if it would have been that simple
[05:17] <tholme> variant: Uhm, just one question. Im configuring the SAMBA server. And Im to enter 'realm = DOMAIN_NAME' and 'Security = ADS' into the smb.conf. Does it matter where in the smb.conf file I put it? And the domain name, is that the work group or?
[05:17] <ydo> ikonia: but it says "mmc0", but there is no /dev/mmc0
[05:17] <bobbob1016> I've tried the VLC, Totem, and Mplayer plugins, and still nothing is playing in swiftfox, can anyone help?
[05:17] <ikonia> ydo what hardware is that ?
[05:17] <nrdb> letharion: I just perfer postgresql, there is the mysql-client and mysql-server packages both are label meta-packages so should install the latest version.
[05:17] <tholme> variant: hehe, more than one question :P
[05:18] <variant> tholme: why are you asking me? this is a public support channel
[05:18] <kenthomson> LjL: letharion: I reconfigured the server, went to advances manually keyed in the horiz and vert refresh rates, et all
[05:18] <ydo> ikonia: an sd card
[05:18] <MortarMa1> GOT LIL PROBLEM : i made mistake and disabled something in SERVICES... now it writes HAL INITIALIZATION FAILED... when i want to get to Services , it writes YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION FOR ACCESS..HOW CAN I GET PERMISSION =O
[05:18] <nrdb> letharion: postgresql can do more standard SQL than MySQL.
[05:18] <ikonia> ydo you will probablyfind that as s SCSI disk, for example /dev/sda
[05:18] <neverblue2> MortarMa1: sudo?
[05:18] <kenthomson> LjL: letharion: Using the open source nv drivers this panel works like a charm at 75Hz, its only the nvidia drivers that are bothering me
[05:18] <LjL> kenthomson, there is a bug in the nvidia driver which makes the reported refresh rate different (lower) from the *real* refresh rate. you can actually confirm visually that the monitor is running at lower than 75Hz, i assume?
[05:18] <tholme> variant: yes, just looking for support, I dont know that much, so I ask. It seem like u knew something about this
[05:19] <pbx> What does "you are not allowed to access the system configuration" mean? I see it on login. Xubuntu 7.04.
[05:19] <ydo> ikonia: thats the problem. I don't get that
[05:19] <letharion> nrdb: Ah, thanks. I don't really care about mysql, but AFAIK mediawiki doesn't support postgresql. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
[05:19] <kenthomson> LjL: the only visual cue i have is from the display dialog box in Administration menu
[05:19] <AaronMT> !caps > MortarMa1
[05:19] <ydo> but syslog tell me: nm_hal_device_added (): New device added (hal udi is '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_1180_822_mmc_host').
[05:19] <ikonia> LjL also using the option noddc will stop nvidia from probing the monitor
[05:19] <kenthomson> LjL: and the little headache i am getting since 4 days
[05:19] <ikonia> ydo what are you expecting ?
[05:19] <LjL> kenthomson: well, that means nothing with the nvidia drivers, since they report the wrong rate.
[05:19] <nrdb> letharion: no idea.
[05:19] <ydo> ikonia: I want a device I can mount.. or automount to function properly
[05:19] <LjL> kenthomson: if you don't have an actual *visual* problem (i.e. screen flickers like mad), why would you care?
[05:19] <void^> they need to remove hal/dbus from the services gui. some users appear to think "huh, some service i don't understand. must disable. must save 10kb memory." :] 
[05:19] <ikonia> ydo what device are you expecting
[05:19] <kenthomson> ikonia: >if you care to talk< whats that option?
[05:20] <bobbob1016> MortarMa1, no caps please, you might want to try reinstalling hal, I've done it a few times, try doing it through synaptic
[05:20] <ydo> ikonia: a block device?
[05:20] <letharion> kenthomson: I'm just not sure that you actually get a difference between 60/75hz on a flatscreen. Since a LCD "draws" differently from CRT.
[05:20] <kenthomson> LjL: because a lower resolution is REALLY noticable when reading text
[05:20] <ikonia> ydo ok, good. So check the uudev rules to see what ubuntu should create
[05:20] <kenthomson> letharion: i know that
[05:20] <MortarMa1> sorry but i dont know whats CAPS
[05:20] <letharion> nrdb: Thanks for the help with the package-names anyway :)
[05:20] <lerch> Anyone knows how to autoconnect to an IRC channel through gaim? I only see my msn contacts, not either freenode or #ubuntu
[05:20] <AaronMT> That little key on your keyboard called Capslock
[05:20] <kenthomson> letharion: LjL: but while watching movies and visualizations it is clearly evident that this is sub-70Hz display
[05:20] <LjL> kenthomson: so the resolution is the problem, not the refresh rate - ok. then try what ikonia said as well... wasn't it "NoReadEdid" though?
[05:21] <ydo> ikonia: I don't know anything about udev
[05:21] <SithToast> does it mean anything when my caps and scroll lock lights flash upon bootup?
[05:21] <thelostpatrol> where would i be able to find such a thing as logitech drivers?
[05:21] <neverblue2> anyone use irssi, how do you switch between channels?
[05:21] <Lynx-> Is ReiserFS root partition option avaiable in Ubuntu 7.04 installer?
[05:21] <ydo> neverblue2: alt-number
[05:21] <Lynx-> It wasn't in 6.10
[05:21] <MortarMa1> I AM NOT ALLOWED TO ACCESS TO SYSTEM CONFIGURATION          ..... WHAT TO DO IF I WANT TO HAVE ACCESS FOREVER ?? :S
[05:21] <AaronMT> lerch: I dont think Gaim has an IRC protocol
[05:21] <jrib> neverblue2: alt-# where # is the number for the channel
[05:21] <AaronMT> !caps > MortarMa1
[05:21] <SithToast> it only does that when i attempt to boot into ubuntu normally
[05:21] <ikonia> LjL yes, noEdid will work also, it depends on the nvidia driver version and the parameter your trying to block. Spot on
[05:21] <bobbob1016> sorry for repeating, I've been trying to get embedded videos working in swiftfox, and nothing has seemed to work so far, can anyone help me get embedded videos to work?
[05:21] <nrdb> letharion: the synaptic search function is always a good place to start.
[05:21] <kenthomson> LjL: the refresh rate is the problem NOT THE RESOLUTION, and the option is Option 		"ModeValidation" 	"CRT-0: NoEdidModes, NoVertRefreshCheck, NoHorizSyncCheck, NoVesaModes, NoEdidModes, NoXServerModes, NoPredefinedModes"
[05:21] <LjL> kenthomson: uhm, usually what makes it evident that the refresh rate is low is a white image. flickers horribly. visualizations, not sure how they'd make that evident
[05:21] <Morten_> hello. I have a problem with my out-going charset with 7.04. Im from Denmark and we in denmark have some special-chars. When I write the special-chars for example in xchat or another chat-program, the receiver get some very odd letters/chars. Can anyone help?
[05:21] <lerch> AaronMT: I am connected to this very channel through gaim...
[05:22] <kenthomson> LjL: in a lcd static text doesn't make a difference to the refresh rate
[05:22] <neverblue2> now, that doesnt work
[05:22] <kenthomson> LjL: make that difference "with" refresh rates
[05:22] <letharion> nrdb: I don't (think) I have synaptic
[05:22] <neverblue2> i am trying to setup dual monitors, one an Intel (works fine), the other is an ATI Rage XL.  I am getting "screens found, but none have a usable config".  Would this have something to do with my driver (using radeon) ?
[05:22] <LjL> kenthomson: "<kenthomson> LjL: because a lower resolution is REALLY noticable when reading text" <- so i'm not sure whether it's you contradicting yourself rather than me not understanding... but anyway
[05:22] <LjL> kenthomson: well, the option i had in mind was different actually.
[05:22] <kenthomson> LjL: that is about a CRT, and my incoherence due to...
[05:22] <kromagg> I'm having some difficulty trying to switch to a tty, ctrl-alt-f? simply doesn't work from gdm, worked for a while out of normal xserver but not in the xgl server, any ideas? I'm thinking it may be a bug in kbd-data or something similar
[05:22] <kenthomson> LjL: what is it?
[05:23] <Aladin_> Are there any efforts to maintain plugins / addons by the Ubuntu community and to offer these via Synaptic?
[05:23] <bobbob1016> kromagg, I think it's ctrl-alt-f1
[05:23] <nrdb> letharion: try System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager
[05:23] <jrib> Aladin_: plugins for?
[05:23] <ikonia> Aladin_ plugins for what ?
[05:23] <kenthomson> LjL: CRT=static images, flickering is more evident; LCD= static image = one never knows what refresh rate the display is at, only motion pictures cause the display to refresh
[05:23] <ikonia> jrib too fast
[05:23] <kromagg> bobbob1016: yes I know, I mean f1 through f6 doesn't work
[05:23] <neverblue2> jrib: take a stab at my question? (and skip those easy ones :P)
[05:23] <bobbob1016> kromagg, ok, just checking
[05:23] <Aladin_> jrib: Plugins for Firefox, eclipse etc ...
[05:23] <kenthomson> LjL: i even tried Option 		"UseEdidFreqs" 		"false"
[05:24] <bobbob1016> kromagg, no idea then
[05:24] <ikonia> Aladin_ I don't think so
[05:24] <LjL> kenthomson: Option "ReadEdidDPI" must be what i had in mind, not sure i remember right. anyway it's probably not the relevant one.
[05:24] <letharion> nrdb: Could having kubuntu have anything to do with me not finding such a program?
[05:24] <Zedfloyd> question... im on freshmeat.net... and when im looking for programs that can run on unbuntu how do i know... it says"Operating System] 	 	 BeOS,  MacOS X,  Microsoft :: Windows,  POSIX :: BSD,  POSIX :: BSD :: FreeBSD,  POSIX :: IRIX,  POSIX :: Linux,  POSIX :: SunOS/Solaris,  Unix"  which one is unbuntu compatable??
[05:24] <Merjin> hello, I have a stupid question: can I recover my ubuntu password? I went on holiday for two weeks and managed to forget the password to my week-old ubuntu computer :(
[05:24] <ikonia> LjL I believe he will want a combo of noedid and nodcc to stop the montior being probed, then he can define the parameters manually
[05:24] <jrib> neverblue2: I never setup dual monitors, but maybe this helps:
[05:24] <ydo> cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc0/device/device gives me 0x0822.. does that mean I can actually mknod such a device?
[05:24] <jrib> !dualhead > neverblue2 (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:25] <CheshireViking> Zedfloyd, which program are you looking for? is it already in Synaptic?
[05:25] <kenthomson> LjL: we don't want to read the EDID, because it is reporting the wrong values so we should be looking at making all EDID statements FALSE, and manually keying them like Option 		"ExactModeTimingsDVI" 	"true" (from the modeline);
[05:25] <neverblue2> i cannot visit URLS atm
[05:25] <ikonia> ydo you don't want to mknod the device, check udev rules
[05:25] <neverblue2> but thanks though
[05:25] <LjL> kenthomson, i must admit i don't know much about LCDs, i believed that - aside from the perception of flashing CRT phosphors - the human eye couldn't discern motion faster than about 30Hz
[05:25] <Zedfloyd> game called BZFlag
[05:25] <jrib> Merjin: choose "recovery mode" from the grub menu and use this command to set a new password:  passwd YOUR_USERNAME_HERE
[05:25] <DJNOVA2006> hi ppl anyone know how to go back to windows???
[05:25] <nrdb> letharion: long time since I even tried kunbuntu, but I expect it would.  But I would expect that whatever kubuntu does uses has some search in it.
[05:25] <Zedfloyd> im brand new to unbuntu
[05:25] <neverblue2> it has nothing to do with duals (I beleive), it has to do with the driver for the card
[05:25] <bobbob1016> kromagg, try looking in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard
[05:25] <kenthomson> LjL: thanks for the help, anyways...let me slog it out for one more day than
[05:25] <LjL> kenthomson: yes, that the nvidia driver gets the Edid totally wrong, i do know. but it seems you've already tried just about every possible relevant option
[05:25] <Merjin> I'll try that jrib, thanks
[05:26] <bobbob1016> kromagg, that's all I can think of
[05:26] <ikonia> G0SUB stop changing nicks
[05:26] <kenthomson> LjL: looks like that, and so it feels bad!
[05:26] <jrib> neverblue2: it sounds like it's an issue with your xorg.conf
[05:26] <neverblue2> hey ZedFloyd, where is that Pink Zepellin ?
[05:26] <bobbob1016> I've been trying to get embedded videos working in swiftfox, and nothing has seemed to work so far, can anyone help me get embedded videos to work?
[05:26] <variant> DJNOVA2006: to uninstall ubunto, insert your windows cd and install it as normal, wipeing all the hard disk contents (if you only have ubuntu installed) and be sure to backup any important data
[05:26] <ikonia> !nickspam >GNU_ME_HURDER
[05:26] <letharion> nrdb: Perhaps you missed that part, but I did search, using apt-cache :)
[05:26] <neverblue2> jrib: yes, as in my driver maybe
[05:26] <bobbob1016> I've tried the VLC, Totem, and Mplayer plugins, and still nothing is playing in swiftfox, can anyone help?
[05:26] <yxairyggen> How do I place an icon to a specific cedega-game on the desktop for example?
[05:26] <pbx> So this "you are not allowed to access the system configuration" message doesn't ring a bell with anybody? I'm finding some pages via Google but the fixes seem rather obscure...
[05:26] <G0SUB> ikonia: OK
[05:26] <neverblue2> i am trying to setup dual monitors, one an Intel (works fine), the other is an ATI Rage XL.  I am getting "screens found, but none have a usable config".  Would this have something to do with my driver (using radeon) ?
[05:26] <Kragnerac> DJNOVA2006: Do you have Windows stored on another drive?
[05:26] <jrib> pbx: what gives you that message?
[05:26] <Zedfloyd> good one neverblue
[05:27] <ydo> ikonia: you expect me to understand /etc/udev/rules.d/65-persistent-storage.rules?
[05:27] <variant> yxairyggen: right click the desktop and select new launcher just add hte cedega command in there
[05:27] <Zedfloyd> question... im on freshmeat.net... and when im looking for programs that can run on unbuntu how do i know... it says"Operating System]  BeOS, MacOS X, Microsoft :: Windows, POSIX :: BSD,  POSIX :: BSD :: FreeBSD, POSIX :: IRIX, POSIX :: Linux, POSIX :: SunOS/Solaris, Unix" which one is unbuntu compatable??
[05:27] <ikonia> ydo yes
[05:27] <pbx> jrib: I see it on login.  Xubuntu 7.04.
[05:27] <neverblue2> ah, I didnt write in that I am setting up my xorg.conf manually
[05:27] <yxairyggen> variant, And what is the cedega command?
[05:27] <nrdb> letharion: yep missed that part.  haven't used apt-cache much myself.
[05:27] <pbx> jrib: My wifi card stopped working and I'm wondering if it' related...
[05:27] <PCGenie> Zedfloyd, debian
[05:27] <variant> Zedfloyd: if it's linux/unix then it is ubuntu compatible
[05:27] <DJNOVA2006> how do i access the stup cd from grub??
[05:27] <PCGenie> Zedfloyd, .deb
[05:27] <CheshireViking> Zedfloyd, looks like its in Synaptic "3D first person Tank battle game"? all you need to do is open Synaptic from the System menu, search for "BZ" and that will find the program ready to downl;oad & install, just tick the box to install and click apply
[05:27] <yxairyggen> variant, I have installed it in the cedega-gui
[05:27] <DJNOVA2006> **setup
[05:27] <variant> yxairyggen: dunno then, ask transgaming folks
[05:28] <letharion> nrdb: I'm really a gentoo geek, so I feel better using a terminal ^^
[05:28] <neverblue2> funny how its always two ppl answering the same questions
[05:28] <PCGenie> Zedfloyd, the others may be compatible but are not in packages ubuntu normally reads
[05:28] <Zedfloyd> so i download first then synaptic
[05:28] <kenthomson> DJNOVA2006: what is it that you want to do
[05:28] <neverblue2> and only after people repeat them
[05:28] <jrib> pbx: can you get to the desktop ?
[05:28] <Zedfloyd> got it!
[05:28] <neverblue2> its like a duplication of everything, to get something done
[05:28] <neverblue2> lmao
[05:28] <neverblue2> nicely run channel ppl
[05:28] <Zedfloyd> thanks!!!!
[05:28] <DJNOVA2006> get rid of ubuntu and install win98
[05:28] <ydo> ikonia: I think I ought to have something under /dev/disk/by-id/mmc* but I don't
[05:28] <variant> neverblue2: #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:28] <kenthomson> DJNOVA2006: one HDD?
[05:29] <neverblue2> variant: buzz off
[05:29] <variant> DJNOVA2006: I already told you how to do it
[05:29] <DJNOVA2006> one hdd
[05:29] <tritium> neverblue2: take it easy there
[05:29] <ikonia> neverblue2 don't be rude
[05:29] <PCGenie> Zedfloyd, look for some other urls for synaptic, i.e. universe
[05:29] <letharion> yxairyggen: I think there's supposed to be a builtin function to do that. Perhaps it was just planned though, and hasn't been implemented yet.
[05:29] <Zedfloyd> what is POSIX?
[05:29] <pbx> jrib: Yeah, it's just a monolog that pops up each time I log in.   Wifi is working now, so disregard that bit.
[05:29] <kenthomson> DJNOVA2006: tell me the partitions, is the first one windows and the later ubuntu?
[05:29] <kenthomson> DJNOVA2006: Is your system dual boot?
[05:29] <kenthomson> DJNOVA2006: would you rather reinstall windows and start with a fresh slate?
[05:29] <jrib> pbx: does stuff like synaptic work?
[05:29] <neverblue2> sorry for my blatently obvious observation
[05:29] <bobbob1016> I've been trying to get embedded videos working in swiftfox, and nothing has seemed to work so far, can anyone help me get embedded videos to work?
[05:29] <bobbob1016> I've tried the VLC, Totem, and Mplayer plugins, and still nothing is playing in swiftfox, can anyone help?
[05:29] <Civic> hello everyone
[05:29] <DJNOVA2006> KENTHOMPSON - yes
[05:29] <nrdb> letharion: I like to use a GUI when I can, but there is still a lot of need to use a terminal with Linux.  But with ubuntu/kubuntu at least its reduced a lot.
[05:30] <tritium> neverblue2: it was the rudeness that was the problem.  Not the observation.
[05:30] <neverblue2> i guess the truth is disturbing, and everyone is just trying to help
[05:30] <kenthomson> DJNOVA2006: answer all my questions
[05:30] <LjL> kenthomson: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/+bug/92599
[05:30] <letharion> Zedfloyd: It's sort of a standard that certain (mostly *nix) OS's try to comply with.
[05:30] <variant> !offtopic | neverblue2
[05:30] <PCGenie> DJNOVA2006, do you have any win98 on other hard drive partitions anywhere near you?
[05:30] <LjL> kenthomson: this also mentions Option "IgnoreEDID" "true" and Option "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP", had you tried those?
[05:30] <ubotu> neverblue2: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:30] <kenthomson> LjL: let me see, a bug is surely depressing unless it is solved
[05:30] <neverblue2> tritium: and its not rude to send ppl to the "offtopic" channel
[05:30] <Zedfloyd> what are the best linx to look for free linux programs
[05:30] <DJNOVA2006> PCGENIE no ony on cd
[05:30] <tritium> neverblue2: it is to say "buzz off"
[05:30] <Civic> Does anybody know, how to restore the icons on the panel, that it show text too, not only icon?
[05:30] <cosmodad> is there anything special I need to make amarok play FLAC files?
[05:30] <stefg> !codecs | bobbob1016
[05:30] <neverblue2> tritium: answer the question
[05:30] <ubotu> bobbob1016: 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
[05:30] <pbx> jrib: Yeah, everything seems to work.
[05:30] <variant> Zedfloyd: google with the term linux and the program you want to find
[05:31] <kenthomson> LjL: DFP wouldn't be applicable as although i have a LCD, it connects through A VGA AND NOT A DVI, so for nvidia it is a CRT
[05:31] <PCGenie> DJNOVA2006, well, it is really easy then, just wipe your hard drive and boot with win98 cd
[05:31] <neverblue2> twice I might add
[05:31] <tritium> neverblue2: no, it's not rude to be asked to go to -offtopic
[05:31] <ikonia> kenthomson its not crt - its still DFP
[05:31] <cosmodad> playing FLAC files in amarok doesn't work for me, though I have gstreamer flac stuff installed
[05:31] <DJNOVA2006> how do i do that???
[05:31] <ikonia> ughhh didn't mean to respond
[05:31] <variant> PCGenie: as 3 people have already told him
[05:31] <letharion> Zedfloyd: Go to wikipedia if you really want the details :P
[05:31] <PCGenie> variant, yikes
[05:31] <Zedfloyd> i just want to browse a site to know what is popular and program options...  i am new to linux
[05:31] <DJNOVA2006> variant, i dont know how
[05:31] <void^> neverblue2: why doesn't your question contain pastebin links to your Xorg.*.log and xorg.conf?
[05:31] <variant> DJNOVA2006: insert your win98 cd and power off/on the pc
[05:31] <jrib> pbx: I'm looking at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/59946 .  Do you get the same error if you run the 'network-admin' in a terminal (no sudo) and what is the output of the 'groups' command?
[05:31] <Civic> how to enable text under the icons on the panel?
[05:31] <ikonia> DJNOVA2006 put the windows cd into your cd driver and reboot
[05:31] <PCGenie> DJNOVA2006, you need help from someone in person then
[05:32] <DJNOVA2006> variant, its not a livecd
[05:32] <variant> DJNOVA2006: for installing windows you would be better off /join #windows and ask in there
[05:32] <PCGenie> DJNOVA2006, windows98 cd will boot and format the hard drive
[05:32] <tritium> neverblue2: FYI, questions end in "?".  It's also rude to demand an answer to a question, especially when you didn't ask one.
[05:32] <Civic> ANYBODY? How to enable text under icons in the panel?
[05:32] <ikonia> Civic stop asking and just wait
[05:32] <variant> Civic: don't think you can
[05:33] <Civic> oh, someone hears me
[05:33] <ikonia> Civic everyeone hears your, people are busy, this is a busy channel
[05:33] <kenthomson> LjL: and as of the latest version IgnoreEDID "true" has been deprecated and we say things like UseEDID "false" or more specifically UseEDIDFreqs "false"
[05:33] <LjL> kenthomson: what about the "Because you don't use Twinview you should be able to disable it without any side effects (unless you one day do wish to use it). Could you try disabling DynamicTwinView in xorg.conf and reporting back?"
[05:33] <variant> Civic: have a look in gconf-editor, mihgt be an option in terhe (under gnome-panel)
[05:33] <dyrne> Zedfloyd: id probably recommend a debian based distro. ubuntu, debian or something. makes searching for an app very easy and there are a large number available
[05:33] <kenthomson> LjL: it's not there in it
[05:34] <Shin_Gouki> hi i just installed xubuntu , theres openOffice text stuff included but not calc or "excel", how do i complete my install?
[05:34] <ikonia> kenthomson put it in
[05:34] <kenthomson> ikonia: though in the physical form it is still a DFP, nvidia treats anything that plugs into a VGA as CRT, only DVI=DLP for the DRIVER
[05:34] <Zedfloyd> debian based distro?  i dont understand dyrne
[05:34] <Civic> you see - I am using ubuntu, and when I installed it, I saw three icons on the upper panel - System, Applications and one more, whch I do not remember the name. And now I do not know, what I have pressed, but these three icons are lost. I want to know, how to enable it again
[05:34] <ikonia> kenthomson I've not found that to be true
[05:34] <thelostpatrol> where would i be able to find such a thing as logitech drivers?

[05:35] <kenthomson> ikonia: this is what the OFFICIAL NVIDIA README SAYS: "NOTE: anything attached to a 15 pin VGA connector is regarded by the driver as a CRT. "DFP" should only be used to refer to digital flat panels connected via a DVI port."
[05:35] <pbx> jrib: Thank for that. Running network-admin gives the same error. Groups is "pbx adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin"
[05:35] <LjL> kenthomson: it's not supposed to be there, it's supposed to be added. "Can you try and add   Option "DynamicTwinView" "false"   to your xorg.conf?" (from a linked bug report)
[05:35] <ikonia> kenthomson I understand that, however as I've said, I've not found that to be the case
[05:35] <nrdb> Civic: so you don't have the "Applications" "Places" and "System" menus ?
[05:35] <Civic> yes
[05:35] <PCGenie> I need to install a kiosk for a PIII with 96 ram; I tried Xubuntu, what other debian based os can I use?
[05:35] <jrib> pbx: do you get any terminal output with 'network-admin'?
[05:35] <Civic> I want to see it again ::)
[05:35] <kenthomson> LjL: ok let me try and restart x, wait
[05:35] <kenthomson> ikonia: do you have more knowledge or the OFFICIAL README, IDIOT!!!!
[05:35] <ikonia> kenthomson and if your having problems with the nvidia drivers and quoting "official" style comments - take to nvidia
[05:36] <ikonia> kenthomson attitude sucks
[05:36] <Civic> nrdb: Yes And I want to see these three icons again
[05:36] <AaronMT> !attitude > kenthomson
[05:36] <thelostpatrol> where would i be able to find such a thing as logitech drivers?
[05:36] <Civic> I am a total newbie on linux
[05:36] <thelostpatrol> i tried looking up the drivers on yahoo and nothing
[05:36] <ydo> ikonia: please please pretty please with sugar on top..
[05:36] <AnAnt> I got a UDF format CD that can be read under windows, yet it can't be read by Ubuntu, why's that ?
[05:36] <Lbawinowns> Is there any way to help open office by adding words to the "global" Swedish dictionary?
[05:36] <stefg> PCGenie: use a server install and a lightweight wm, like fluxbox. For a kiosk ratpoison might be perfect. That'll run in 96 MB
[05:37] <cosmodad> playing FLAC files in amarok doesn't work for me, though I have gstreamer flac stuff installed. Anyone has an idea?
[05:37] <dyrne> Zedfloyd: what is you question again? can you rephrase?
[05:37] <mcp> http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.22/ <- eh what? .22 isn't there, not a pre, not an rc, nothing just a git
[05:37] <variant> Lbawinowns: they will very probably have a translation project
[05:37] <ikonia> LjL before calling me an idiot
[05:37] <Lbawinowns> variant: do you think they'll appreciate help?
[05:37] <nrdb> Civic: right click on the panel, select "Add to Panel", go to the bottom and select "Menu Bar", the menus should appear (probably in the wrong place)
[05:37] <Zedfloyd> what is a good website to look at what are popular downloads for unbuntu?
[05:38] <variant> Lbawinowns: absolutly, if you approach them in the right way
[05:38] <ydo> thelostpatrol: why would you need drivers?
[05:38] <ikonia> ydo sorry what do you want me to do
[05:38] <jrib> Zedfloyd: popcon.ubuntu.com
[05:38] <kenthomson> LjL: OMFG! That did it!

[05:38] <Lbawinowns> variant: "your dictionary suxkszorz let me show my 1337 skills", is that good :p?
[05:38] <LjL> kenthomson: cool. however, i'm forced to put a ban on you now, you've been warned numerous times, and yet your attitude didn't change a bit. and that's not acceptable, sorry.
[05:38] <variant> Lbawinowns: eheh, nej det ar inte bra :)
[05:38] <ikonia> ydo ok - one moment, just finishing something off then I'll give you some attention
[05:39] <PCGenie> BTW: this is for that soul who wanted to know how to install packages: http://www.monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/#enabling_extra_repositories
[05:39] <pbx> jrib: No term output from network-admin, no, just the dialog.
[05:39] <ydo> thelostpatrol: does the scrollwheel work?
[05:39] <jrib> pbx: does 'gksu network-admin' work?

[05:40] <thelostpatrol> ydo - yes
[05:40] <Do``> hey
[05:40] <pbx> jrib: Yes. (thank for your persistence here, BTW)
[05:40] <thelostpatrol> ydo - i want to make other buttons work, like the side ones
[05:40] <nrdb> Civic: what do you mean by enable ?
[05:40] <ydo> thelostpatrol: then that is 2 more buttons.. what do you expect those other buttons to do?
[05:40] <thelostpatrol> and the ones by the scroll wheel
[05:40] <Zedfloyd> i will try that, thanks!
[05:40] <Civic> nrdb: I mean that when I instaled linux I could see these three icons on the panel
[05:40] <jrib> pbx: ok, have you done anything with "dbus"?  (like turn it off or get any errors about it)
[05:40] <PCGenie> BTW: found ratpoison, http://www.nongnu.org/ratpoison/
[05:40] <Civic> nrdb: now I don't
[05:41] <Do``> could someone help me compile and install mplayer from source? or show a guide that works on feisty?
[05:41] <pbx> pbx: Nope
[05:41] <ikonia> Do`` use the ubuntu package
[05:41] <jrib> pbx: k, type this in a terminal and tell me if it is successful:  sudo invoke-rc.d network-admin start
[05:41] <thelostpatrol> ydo - i want one to be switch between programs like alt+tab and the other to minimize. another i want to minimize all. but overall i just want to know what my options are for making the buttons work, 'cause right now i have no choices.
[05:41] <St3D|away> quick question.. im trying to install vmware  but get erro that it already ecists on system. is there anyway to find out where the install is , or anyway to just force the new install
[05:41] <jrib> pbx: erm, sorry that's wrong, I mean:  sudo invoke-rc.d dbus start
[05:41] <SoylentOrbo> Anyone good with ntfs? I grew my NTFS partition last night using GPartEd on a Feisty Fawn disc, and got an error midway because the desktop tried to mount the disc before the changes were fully committed. Now I have a 56G physical partition as reported in both Linux and Windows, but only 28G capacity. Is there a fix for this other than reformatting?
[05:41] <Do``> ikonia: i want a new build because the 'package' gives slow hd movie while it shouldnt happen on a core2 extreme
[05:41] <dyrne> Do``: mplayer is usually pretty easy to compile. though ive only done it on slack not ubuntu
[05:42] <Civic> nrdb: What's the advices?
[05:42] <ikonia> Do`` are you sure its your mplayer build and not a codec or another ubuntu problem
[05:42] <Do``> dyrne: i've tried 1 guide but at 'make' it gave errors i couldnt resolve
[05:42] <pbx> jrib: "System message bus already started; not starting" -- failed
[05:42] <SoylentOrbo> I complied mplayer years ago on deb; the instructions in the readme were perfectly useful
[05:42] <nrdb> Civic: the "Applications" menu etc. are removable, which is what it appears you did (probably by mistake) you need to now tell the system to put the back, then reposition them to where they should be.
[05:42] <Do``> ikonia: no i'm not sure, but then again mplayer doesnt need codec to play what it has builtin feature for
[05:43] <Civic> nrdb: How do I do that?
[05:43] <jrib> pbx: try restarting just to see if it matters, 'sudo invoke-rc.d dbus restart' then try 'network-admin'
[05:43] <PCGenie> stefg, curiously, the ratpoison requires a minimal GNU/Linux install; does Ubuntu have one?
[05:43] <ikonia> Do`` try a different player
[05:43] <Do``> ikonia: vlc does it just fine
[05:43] <Do``> but i still want to use mplayer.
[05:43] <ikonia> ydo do you want to have a go now ?
[05:43] <stefg> PCGenie: that is called a 'server-install' in ubuntu-speak
[05:43] <pbx> jrib: Same denial dialog as before
[05:43] <variant> Do``: recompile mplayer, it;s a peice of cake
[05:43] <nrdb> Civic: as I said before right click on the panel etc.
[05:44] <Civic> nrdb:  and then? I can't find it there
[05:44] <Do``> variant: i'm new to ubuntu, i have absolutely no idea how i would go about recompiling something
[05:44] <PCGenie> stefg, any version? i.e.; dappy, etchy is good with server install?
[05:44] <ydo> thelostpatrol: maybe this will help? first hit on google: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2006/12/01/support-for-5-button-mouse-in-firefox-ubuntu-6061-610/

[05:45] <ydo> ikonia: no, nothing happens when I reinsert the card
[05:45] <Civic> but no one answer me
[05:46] <variant> Civic: yes
[05:46] <void^> Do``: also, make sure you have selected the proper output device in mplayer, it should be xv in most cases. using beryl/compiz might have a bad effect on performance, too.
[05:46] <PCGenie> stefg, thx again, will do
[05:46] <variant> calv_: yes
[05:46] <thelostpatrol> ydo - thanks but that's way too complicated for a noob like myself at this point
[05:46] <ikonia> ydo you get no input at all ?
[05:46] <ikonia> Civic then wait
[05:46] <nrdb> Civic: right click on the panel, select "Add to Panel", select "Menu Bar" (near the bottom), click on "Add", click on "Close" you should then have you menus visible.
[05:46] <jrib> pbx: grep admin /etc/group    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=286260 is your issue btw
[05:46] <calv_> excellent thanks
[05:46] <ikonia> ydo - no output sorry
[05:46] <thelostpatrol> ydo - i don't want to ruin my install because of a mouse :P
[05:46] <Civic> nrdb: I will try
[05:46] <noelferreira> i have a script and i want to run it all the time without asking me for root password. how can i do that?
[05:46] <ydo> ikonia: no
[05:46] <ikonia> ydo thats not a good sign at all
[05:46] <variant> noelferreira: you can set it suid root but that is exceptionally stupid :)
[05:46] <stefg> calv_: if you accept that ubuntu will write grub to the MBR and point it to its own menu.lst
[05:46] <AaronMT> !chmod > noelferreira
[05:46] <ikonia> ydo that means the machine is not even aware of it put inserted
[05:46] <Civic> nrdb: THANKS dude :) THank you wery much
[05:46] <ikonia> ydo which explains why you don't get a device in /dev
[05:47] <SoylentOrbo> noel, make the script setuid, and be really careful who's allowed to use it
[05:47] <Do``> variant: done
[05:47] <ydo> ikonia: if I unload the module sdhci and then reload it I ofcourse get mmc0: SDHCI at 0xdc001800 irq 22 DMA
[05:47] <Civic> Thank you wery much
[05:47] <szymon_g> hi
[05:47] <nrdb> Civic: are they in the correct location ?
[05:47] <Civic> yes
[05:47] <Civic> everythin is fine
[05:47] <Civic> thank you man
[05:47] <variant> Do``: ok, identify to services
[05:47] <szymon_g> did anyone tried to run Call of Duty 2 on ubuntu using Wine?
[05:47] <ikonia> ydo thats interesting - so you do get output on the first insertion

[05:47] <ydo> ikonia: no, I modprobed it manually
[05:48] <noelferreira> AaronMT: i did chmod to that script however the script itself has a sudo command in it.
[05:48] <Civic> bye everyone
[05:48] <ikonia> ydo ok - is this a 3rd party module or part of ubuntu ?
[05:48] <jrib> pbx: also, does 'services-admin' give you the same error?
[05:48] <noelferreira> ! chmod

[05:48] <AnAnt> I got a UDF format CD that can be read under windows, yet it can't be read by Ubuntu, why's that ? Here's what I get in dmesg when I enter the CD: Unable to identify CD-ROM format.
[05:48] <ydo> ikonia: its the (experimental) sdhci module built in to the generic kernel distributed with feisty
[05:48] <nrdb> Civic: there are quite a few very handy thing you can add to the panel in the same way.  I like the "System Monitor" myself, and you can also put short cuts to programs there too.
[05:48] <ikonia> ydo ok cool so it is part of ubuntu
[05:49] <Biohazard> hi
[05:49] <AnAnt> when I run: mount -t udf /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom/ I get this in dmesg: UDF-fs: No fileset found
[05:49] <jrib> pbx: interesting, I realized I get the same error if I just run 'network-admin' too.  But not from the menu.  Does the menu item work for you or give you error?
[05:49] <ydo> ikonia: yeah..
[05:49] <AnAnt> ydo: what is sdhci for ?
[05:49] <ikonia> ydo your best bet to be honest with it being experimental is to log a bug on launchpad and explain it clearly, that way one of the dev team who understand that module and its hooks can communicate and help you through it
[05:50] <ikonia> ydo its hard to debug experimental stuff
[05:50] <pbx> jrib: Menu item works. I'm just not sure what's triggering this on login. The install is completely fresh -- 6.10 dist-upgraded to 7.04.
[05:50] <ikonia> Gejr better help in #samba
[05:50] <ydo> AnAnt: secure digital host controller interface

[05:52] <SoylentOrbo> I grew my NTFS partition last night using GPartEd on a Feisty Fawn disc, and got an error midway because the desktop tried to mount the disc before the changes were fully committed. Now I have a 56G physical partition as reported in both Linux and Windows, but only 28G capacity. Is there a fix for this other than reformatting?
[05:53] <ydo> AnAnt: I have an sd card on ricoh hardware
[05:53] <VirhYl3> Twinkle: Did you lose your notification area?
[05:53] <DarkED> maybe the whiskey has gone to my head
[05:53] <Twinkle_RIP> no
[05:53] <ikonia> SoylentOrbo redo the partition, its corrupt
[05:53] <Twinkle_RIP> i don think so
[05:53] <AnAnt> ydo: did it work on Edgy ?
[05:53] <m1ce> has anyone had trouble with feisty using 100% cpu when it should be idle?
[05:53] <AnAnt> ydo: mine used to work on Edgy
[05:53] <jgalvin1> m1ce - might be beagle?
[05:53] <stefg> SoylentOrbo: ah... so the only fix can be provided by windows. if chkdsk fan fix it... good. If it can't : reformat
[05:54] <ydo> AnAnt: then you ought to add tifm_sd in /etc/modules and then reboot I've read that in some forum
[05:54] <VirhYl3> Twinkle: And gaim is actually running, or did you close it?
[05:54] <AnAnt> ydo: did that
[05:54] <ydo> AnAnt: I haven't tried edgy on this computer
[05:54] <Ancik> Gday everyone, is someone here familiar with the ATi Xseriers install problem?

[05:54] <noelferreira> hi have a script with a sudo command in it. and i want to run it everytime without asking for sudo password. what can i do?
[05:54] <m1ce> jgalvin1, what would i do to fix that or find info on it?
[05:54] <AnAnt> ydo: tifm_sd is loaded
[05:54] <VirhYl3> Did you alter the settings in gaim?
[05:54] <SoylentOrbo> "redo the partition" -- so repartition in gparted? How can I first prevent the desktop from mounting the disc when it detects the changes?
[05:54] <AnAnt> ydo: I just found out that sdhci is also loaded
[05:54] <ElllisD> I'm not finding the icon for kftpgrabber in either /usr/share/icons or /usr/share/pixmaps. Where else would they be?
[05:54] <stefg> SoylentOrbo: errm, and write abug report on Launchpad about the incident
[05:55] <Kragnerac> Ancik: What's the problem?
[05:55] <VirhYl3> In the first tab under preferences (in gaim), select always.
[05:55] <VirhYl3> Preferences: Interface: Always.
[05:55] <Ancik> Kregnerac: I already installed it in the text mode, but that's as far as I can get... to get the ATi driivers you need to be loged on to the internet in ubuntu right?
[05:56] <ninjagamer> hello I just used the "sudo nivida-settings" to change my screen resolution and now I am missing maximize,minize close buttons for every applicatoin and my terminal is no longer displaying properly its just a white box...any help?

[05:58] <ninjagamer> yes i enabled desktop effects, i tried turning them off but that did not resolve the issue

[06:00] <PCGenie> graveson, you can edit grub boot menu and add xp

[06:08] <bootsmorris> Is it possible to make a bootable restore cd for linux?  I am constantly trying new operating systems and therefore i am constantly reinstalling.  So it would be nice if i could make an image of my drive and put it on a dvd and when i want to go back to it I could just pop it in and reinstall with all of my patches etc...  already installed.
[06:09] <ninjagamer> stefg ok ill go thorugh all those steps
[06:09] <retarded> bootsmoris you could make a ghost disk i guess. or wouldnt that work ??
[06:09] <assasukasse> i have a problem with alacarte, doens't retain setting for wine folder...any idea how can i fix it?
[06:09] <tobox> I would think that it is possible to do that.... Make a picture of the whole system
[06:09] <yeti> bootsmorris: well, you could just tar up your whole filesystem, excluding /home and some other special cases (like apt's cache)
[06:10] <yeti> bootsmorris: but i'm unsure whether a single DVD would be enough for that :)
[06:10] <carlosfs> i'm trying to install my webcam. First step is installing modules, and when i run "sudo insmod ./file.ko" i got this error msg: "insmod: error inserting './sn9c102.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module". What can i do?

[06:17] <tucuna> not wanting to start a discussion about whether or not to use anti-virus - just need it because i often carry a USB-stick that comes back from internet cafes with virus that i want to kill locally in ubuntu - what is the better app choice?
[06:18] <mat1980> bootsmorris, partimage
[06:18] <retarded> mc44 you already guessed it :) . well i figured out i wanted to get rid of windows on the home network . basicly to keep it short is : do you know anything about network instalations .. i read the official docu on netboot .. but im stuck at the xinetd.d part
[06:18] <chili555> bootsmorris ghost 4 linux or g4l
[06:18] <BoneE> Baktaah its changed
[06:18] <mc44> retarded: why do you need to do a network installation?
[06:18] <BoneE> but its not working
[06:18] <Baktaah> BoneE restart X
[06:19] <BoneE> Baktaah still say mesa
[06:19] <retarded> i want to install feisty server on a machine that has no possibility of booting from cd ..
[06:19] <St3D|away> the chosen action also affects other packages.The fololowing changes are requied in order to proceed    TO be removed  x-window-system-core   ,  xorg,   xerver-xorg  ,   xserver-org-video-all
[06:19] <bootsmorris> Partimage.  Where do I get it and is it free?
[06:19] <Baktaah> BoneE what?
[06:19] <retarded> mc44 i want to install feisty server on a machine that has no possibility of booting from cd ..
[06:19] <Baktaah> BoneE please rephrase ur question
[06:19] <carlosfs> i'm trying to install my webcam. First step is installing modules, and when i run "sudo insmod ./file.ko" i got this error msg: "insmod: error inserting './sn9c102.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module". What can i do?
[06:20] <SoylentOrbo> partimage.org for explanation; apt-get install partimage
[06:20] <mc44> retarded: ah well, Ive never done it sorry :( just say what your problem is and im sure someone more competent will be able to help :)
[06:20] <mat1980> st3d, uhm... it's not good... propably you don't want to remove that packages...
[06:20] <bluefoxicy> Anyone have Rhythmbox always locking up after several hours?
[06:20] <bluefoxicy> freezes, crashes, etc
[06:20] <BoneE> i did apt-get install ati drivers
[06:20] <St3D|away> yeah i thought that as well
[06:20] <BoneE> changed the xorg
[06:20] <dunstabulos> is there a reference for the differences between ubuntu server and desktop?
[06:21] <mc44> bluefoxicy: use a bettter music player :)
[06:21] <BoneE> restarted X
[06:21] <retarded> well the "guest" is able to get the dhcp addres . and it gets the hosts ip as "gateway" .. but tftp times out .
[06:21] <BoneE> but ati driver still not running
[06:21] <tomaszx_> mat1980, yes sometimes
[06:21] <magical_trevsky> can anyone tell me what I have to do next to install ubuntu into the free space on my hdd? (screenshot: http://img400.imageshack.us/img400/8259/screenshotsv1.png), is there no guided thing to use the free space?
[06:21] <bluefoxicy> mc44:  Ubuntu crashed when someone pulled the iPod without unmounting it.  Perhaps I need a better OS as well.
[06:21] <mc44> bluefoxicy: dont talk crazy
[06:22] <bluefoxicy> The sound stopped, screen turned black, keyboard stopped responding, couldn't get magic sysrq to do anything
[06:22] <BoneE> Baktaah is the driver setting put somewhere else
[06:22] <SumOfSam> not sure this is the best place to ask, but maybe someone can help.  :) Is there a boot loader that supports booting from a bootable iso image?
[06:22] <mc44> bluefoxicy: sounds like kernel panic
[06:22] <bluefoxicy> mc44:  then don't make retarded comments about bugs in the default software.  The solution is obviously to figure out what the problem is and fix the software, not to switch to other software, rebuild a dozen playlists, and retrain the software and the user.
[06:22] <mc44> SumOfSam: grub does
[06:23] <ninjagamer> ok im just going to reinstall ubuntu
[06:23] <mc44> !install | SumOfSam
[06:23] <ubotu> SumOfSam: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[06:23] <ninjagamer> thanks for the help
[06:23] <tucuna> mc44 / bluefoxicy - ubuntu (both edgy & feisty) crashes occassionally here with some pirate DVDs with burn errors
[06:23] <Toma-> ...
[06:23] <mc44> SumOfSam: there are instructions in that link
[06:23] <SumOfSam> thank you
[06:23] <bluefoxicy> weird thing is, Rhythmbox doesn't throw an apport crash when it crashes
[06:24] <St3D|away> anyway to start ubuntu up  n safe mode with no major drivers active ?
[06:24] <Toma-> bluefoxicy: nothing in .xsession-errors?
[06:24] <Otacon22> how can i find the obsolated packages?
[06:24] <bluefoxicy> Toma-:  nope, just window manager stuff.
[06:24] <graveson> how can i edit grub to add a 2nd disk ( master) to dual boot
[06:24] <mc44> bluefoxicy: meh, twas a joke dude

[06:25] <dabide> can someone help a linux newb? i'm using ubuntu server (edgy) and i have rtorrent installed, when i log in and start rtorrent, it starts downloading the torrents in the watch-directory, but when i close my ssh client, rtorrent stops too - is there a way to have it running, although i'm not connected to the server via ssh?
[06:25] <stefg> St3D|away: this option should be in the boot-manu
[06:25] <bluefoxicy> but it doesn't tell me what process that's attached to
[06:25] <void^> dabide: screen
[06:25] <mat1980> st3d, I'm sorry... I don't know what you could do. I don't want to suggest you wrong actions.
[06:25] <stefg> !grub | graveson
[06:25] <ubotu> graveson: 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
[06:25] <St3D|away> ill try it see what happens lol
[06:25] <St3D|away> Cheers guys
[06:25] <mc44> bluefoxicy: and if you want to track down a bug, you will have better luck in -motu or -desktop, not here
[06:26] <dabide> void^: "screen" means what?
[06:26] <bluefoxicy> mc44:  I thought bugs were offtopic for -devel and -motu (which is a mini -devel)
[06:26] <graveson> stefg: i already have windows installed, i lost windows after linux install
[06:26] <chili555> dabide I might try rtorrent <file>.torrent &   the & will free up the terminal.
[06:26] <marshall> anybody know where i can get ubuntu system panel for feisty?
[06:26] <collision4> hi
[06:26] <mc44> bluefoxicy: no, its just you are usually whining about something not finding a bug :p (and -desktop is where they deal with gnome bugs :)
[06:26] <stefg> graveson: read the howto .... last link.
[06:26] <void^> dabide: if you run rtorrent in screen, you can detach it, log out, log back in, and reattach it.
[06:27] <bonee_> Baktaah: ok lets try this again
[06:27] <dfgas> anyone exprience with yaboot and usb drives?
[06:27] <bluefoxicy> I must go
[06:27] <Toma-> bluefoxicy: next time you run rhythmbox, run it with "rhythmbox -d outputfile" and see if its a copy of this bug. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstreamer/+bug/96690

[06:28] <stefg> does screen work over ssh? so i start a session remotely and detach, go over to the box and attach the session locally?
[06:28] <sinkorswim> I have an OO document, when I print from OO  on windows the font size is smaller than when i print the same document from OO on ubuntu
[06:28] <void^> stefg: yes.
[06:28] <bootsmorris> well guys i have to get back to work.  ill ttyl
[06:28] <sinkorswim> can anyone explain this?
[06:28] <stefg> screen is great
[06:28] <void^> stefg: absolutely.
[06:29] <spikeb> sinkorswim: different printer settings perhaps
[06:29] <bonee_> Section "Device"
[06:29] <bonee_> 	Identifier	"ATI Technologies, Inc. ATI Default Card"
[06:29] <bonee_> 	Driver		"fglrx"
[06:29] <bonee_> 	BusID		"PCI:1:0:0"
[06:29] <bonee_> see its changed
[06:29] <sinkorswim> spikeb, I've tried on two different printers, same thing both times. ubuntu seems to have a different idea of what a size 12 font is from windows
[06:29] <stillunknown> sinkorswim: Different fonts, or one uses a built in font of the printer

[06:30] <spikeb> sinkorswim: that is odd.
[06:31] <sinkorswim> yeah, it's not the document either. I did a simple document with just one paragraph and set it to times new roman size 12, same thing. it prints bigger in ubuntu
[06:31] <magical_trevsky> rapid, ksystemlog
[06:31] <blckcts> how do i get around a : (Warning: Linking the shared library xxx against the static library yyy is not portable!).  compliling something.
[06:32] <DX00> LS
[06:32] <DX00> LS
[06:32] <DX00> LS
[06:32] <blckcts> can i link those libraries myself?
[06:32] <stillunknown> blckts: Why are you trying to do static linking?
[06:32] <axbard> Can any one tell me how I can remove my display drivers I got some really shity
[06:33] <cramop> hi, I have installed 7z-full which can handle RAR archive extraction. How can I make archive manager use that property?
[06:33] <stefg> sinkorswim: that might be because of the difference in /screen/ dpi resolution. Win uses 96 dpi by default, X uses 72. To have a wysiwyg result the printerdriver might scale differently
[06:33] <blckcts> stillunknown: do u have a solution?
[06:34] <sinkorswim> stefg, that makes sense. The bigger font even appears in print preview i.e. the same text takes up 9 lines in ubuntu and only 7 in windows
[06:34] <blckcts> done configure and i get that on make
[06:34] <stillunknown> blckcts: No, since i don't have a clue about what you're trying to compile, if you are making something for personal usage, then i wouldn't worry too much about the message.
[06:35] <sinkorswim> actually not just in print preview but in the main document view itself, i think it's definitly a DPI issue
[06:35] <blckcts> its a kaffeine plugin
[06:35] <axbard> display: :0.0  screen: 0

[06:35] <blckcts> but not official..
[06:35] <bonee_> axbard i have the same problem
[06:35] <stefg> sinkorswim: so edit the X startup command in the gdm-control-applet and add -dpi 96 to the X startup command
[06:36] <collision4> anyone? - I'm having a problem trying to install ubuntu on macbook - when creating a partition with boot camp, says "could not make a partition as some files cannot be moved" - any ideas how to solve?
[06:36] <blckcts> can i link the libraries myself before make to get past it?
[06:36] <sinkorswim> stefg, I'm very new to ubuntu but I'll give that a try after some googling!
[06:36] <stefg> sinkorswim: and you use the msttcorefonts, right?
[06:37] <sinkorswim> stefg, yeah, i have those
[06:37] <vignesh> I just downloaded seamonkey 1.1 from mozilla.org
[06:37] <vignesh> When I try to access gmail.com I get the following error.
[06:37] <stefg> sinkorswim: they are scaled for 96 dpi...
[06:37] <stillunknown> blckcts: If it's an error, i would look in configure for an option to do a dynamic compile.
[06:37] <vignesh> This document cannot be displayed unless you install the Personal Security Manager (PSM). Download and install PSM and try again, or contact your system administrator
[06:37] <vignesh> The other sites work fine... Plus gmail works in firefox
[06:38] <stillunknown> blckcts: I'm away now/
[06:38] <blckcts> ok thanx stillunknown

[06:47] <Toma-> s1: there may be a work around. whats the exact error?
[06:47] <kekos> what have i to install?
[06:47] <DoChun> first...you might install pen driver...

[06:48] <jusama14> right?
[06:48] <Toma-> s1: can you get a copy from a log file of sorts?
[06:48] <Toma-> !info xmame
[06:48] <kekos> DoChun : how can i do that?
[06:48] <ubotu> Package xmame does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:48] <Toma-> jusama14: i think theres a package for it already
[06:49] <jusama14> in package manager?
[06:49] <Neil-> Can anyone recommend a similar alternative to rhythmbox? I'm sick of mine repeatingly segfaulting out, cant fix it..
[06:49] <Mishaal> Does Ubuntu work well with Bluetooth Internet Connection ??
[06:49] <Toma-> jusama14: yep. enable universe and multiverse and try searching for mame
[06:49] <s1> Toma-, something like dmesg?
[06:49] <Neil-> I've filed a bug report, but no progress
[06:49] <jusama14> okay, thank you
[06:49] <Toma-> s1: thatll do it
[06:50] <Toma-> Neil-: banshee

[06:51] <jusama14> found it, thanks
[06:51] <Mishaal> Does Ubuntu work well with Bluetooth Internet Connection ??
[06:51] <soundray> kekos: you don't need a driver for a USB memory stick. Did you check dmesg output after plugging it in?
[06:51] <bthornton> fatboysmith: yeah, in #hardware

[06:52] <imc_> Anyone know what repo holds acroread for feisty?
[06:52] <GigaClon> this is crazy, twice now when I have upgraded it has removed my swap partition from auto-mounting.
[06:52] <imc_> !acroread
[06:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acroread - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:52] <tritium> imc_: none
[06:52] <imc_> Ah
[06:52] <Alinux> hello all, for my "00:09.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev 01)" wireless card th solution described here dosen't work: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/63989/+viewstatus , maybe somoone knows howto fix
[06:52] <variant> GigaClon: swap doesn't get mounted
[06:52] <imc_> THAT one
[06:52] <imc_> Thanks Tritium ;)
[06:52] <tritium> imc_: had to be removed, since Adobe won't let anyone redistribute it
[06:52] <quasar7> I don't think acroread is in the repos anymore
[06:53] <jusama14> hey tom
[06:53] <jusama14> still there?
[06:53] <imc_> Right, I thought though that someone was hosting it..........
[06:53] <GigaClon> variant, well my swap isn't where is supposed to be, my machine now has 0MB swap
[06:53] <imc_> THanks much
[06:53] <Possum> Pssh... talking to an etch user who won't install latest nvidia driver because module-assistant won't let him -_-;;
[06:53] <tritium> imc_: maybe someone is, but I don't know about it :)
[06:53] <jusama14> i installed xmame through package manager, but I do not know where to find the program lol
[06:53] <imc_> I shall discover it. Meanwhile, off to Adobe.com!
[06:53] <variant> GigaClon: it's not a big deal. run mkswap /dev/YOURSWAPPARTITION and swapon /dev/yourswappartiiton
[06:53] <GigaClon> I know how to fix the problem I am just peeved that it keeps happending
[06:53] <Loco> hi somebody knows a process called wflogs? its from a firewall, yesterday for a moment it start using more and more ram and swap memory 'till it used the 99% of both of them then the pc got frost
[06:54] <soundray> imc_: I upgraded from edgy to feisty with acroread in place. It is still working, so there is a chance that you can install the one from edgy multiverse, using dpkg.
[06:54] <variant> GigaClon: so it happens every six months big deal, never happneed to me
[06:54] <pemdasi> I have a quick question (hopefully) that I can not find so far.  Where does nvidia-settings store it's config file?
[06:54] <imc_> Ahhhhhhh thanks soundray
[06:54] <soundray> kekos: are you following?
[06:54] <jusama14>  i installed xmame through package manager, but I do not know where to find the program lol
[06:54] <kekos> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18830/
[06:55] <kekos> that's the output
[06:55] <stefg> GigaClon: run blkid in a term to get a listing of your partitions. compare the UUID of your swap with the one mentioned in /etc/fstab. if it's not the same, enter the new UUID of your swap in fstab
[06:55] <quasar7> jusama, try running xmame from the terminal
[06:55] <nix`> can anyone tell me where i can find openoffice 2.2 deb packages for warty
[06:55] <kekos> soundray : are you looking at that?
[06:55] <void^> i prefer to not use uuids for swap, as swap tends to get a reformat every now and then
[06:56] <jusama14> does anyone here know how i can open xmame? I installed it through package manager
[06:56] <Toma-> jusama14: its a command line application
[06:56] <MalMen> what is the name of package installer
[06:56] <soundray> kekos: remove the stick, it's giving your machine a headache...
[06:56] <Pici> Anyone happen to know the bitchx ctrl command to go back a window. I know that forward is ctrl-w n
[06:56] <GigaClon> whats the command for listing harddrives

[06:56] <kekos> done
[06:56] <jusama14> Toma-, How do I find the command line
[06:56] <kekos> what can i do?
[06:56] <jusama14> Like, what to type in

[06:57] <Pepetideo> hello guys ... anyone know how to get the mic to capture sound? Its seems quite odd... I never had this problem before but in feisty cannot make it work!!!
[06:57] <St3D|away> does ubuntu have a restore option where oyu can take i back to  the very beginning
[06:57] <kekos> direct, I have a laptop
[06:57] <stefg> GigaClon: sudo fdsik -l to see your partition table, blkid to see th UUIDs
[06:57] <Toma-> jusama14: open a terminal (Applications -> Accessories) and run xmame. it will tell you what to do from there
[06:57] <nix`> tritium, will I be able to install by downloading the .tar.gz file from openoffice.org ?
[06:57] <soundray> St3D|away: the entire installation or just your user data?
[06:58] <tritium> nix`: you should be able to
[06:58] <St3D|away> entire
[06:58] <stefg> GigaClon: *fdisk -l* that is
[06:58] <soundray> kekos: have you got any other USB devices, and do any of them work?
[06:58] <nix`> tritium, is it a source package ?
[06:58] <jusama14> Toma-,  ERROR: required files are missing, the game cannot be run.
[06:58] <kekos> yes a mouse
[06:58] <jusama14> I have not gotten a game for it, when i do, where do i put it?
[06:58] <asherZ> #ubuntu-effects
[06:58] <St3D|away> soundray entire is possible..
[06:58] <jusama14> and what type of file does it have to be?
[06:58] <tritium> nix`: no idea.  I've not looked at it
[06:58] <soundray> St3D|away: do a fresh install. Takes 30 minutes max
[06:58] <nix`> tritium, thanks anyway
[06:59] <Toma-> jusama14: run "man xmame" and thatll give you more instructions
[06:59] <St3D|away> i have a problem with that
[06:59] <soundray> kekos: no other storage devices?
[06:59] <kekos> no
[06:59] <moone> Anyone else have choppy video in Fesity? Edgy video worked fine, Feisty upgraded from Edgy video worked fine, but clean reinstalled Feisty video is choppy.
[06:59] <soundray> kekos: use my nick please. Can you try another USB port?
[06:59] <St3D|away> when i install i cant see the monitor, as its not supported until after installs complete. last tim i had to use my m8s monitor
[06:59] <kekos> ok
[07:00] <soundray> St3D|away: try installing from the alternate CD
[07:00] <St3D|away> which one ?
[07:00] <foxiness> when i add support ntfs to ubuntu by automix,did this give me perm to write/read to all device ext/int one like usb,coz my friend can not wirte to ext usb drive.
[07:00] <soundray> !alternate | St3D|away
[07:00] <ubotu> St3D|away: 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
[07:00] <stefg> St3D|away: then use the alternate installer, see !alternate
[07:00] <St3D|away> :)
[07:00] <kekos> soundray : I think that it's doing the same
[07:01] <fatboysmith> foxiness you have to rerun tool on new drives ntfs-3g
[07:01] <St3D|away> !minimal
[07:01] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[07:01] <tritium> !automatix > foxiness
[07:01] <soundray> kekos: which version of Ubuntu do you have?
[07:01] <kekos> soundray : Feisty
[07:01] <jusama14> ahh!
[07:02] <Mishaal> #ubuntu-arab  :)
[07:02] <jusama14> i'm trying to uninstall wine from package manager
[07:02] <jusama14> but it keeps saying

[07:02] <fatboysmith> gksu ntfs-config
[07:02] <soundray> kekos: with the caveat of this being a remote diagnosis, I would classify this as a hardware problem. Can you try the stick in another computer?
[07:03] <TECH_1> Ubuntu needs to go back to the drawing board.....it works too good.
[07:03] <asdx> awesome news about dell choosing ubuntu :)
[07:03] <jusama14> i'm trying to uninstall wine from package manager, but it keeps saying this error: W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/totem/totem-mozilla_2.16.2-0ubuntu3_all.deb

[07:03] <kekos> soundray : I have used the pen drive this morning in a computer running Windows XP
[07:03] <TECH_1> Yea..maybe it will clean Dells rep.
[07:04] <kekos> i dont think that is a hardware problem
[07:04] <soundray> kekos: it could still be your USB hardware.
[07:04] <stefg> jusama14: don't repeat, it's noisy enough in here... set your sources.list to a different mirror and sudo apt-get update then
[07:04] <jusama14> dude, i'm a noob. what is sources.list how do i change it?
[07:05] <thelostpatrol> hi i have a problem installing gaim through automatix. it says there's a fatal error. this is after i already uninstalled it. can anyone help me install this?
[07:05] <stefg> !easysource | jusama14
[07:05] <ubotu> jusama14: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[07:05] <CirroX> thelostpatrol: sudo apt-get install gaim ?
[07:05] <sarah> hey
[07:05] <kekos> I dont know, I have change my mouse and it is working in all ports, and the pen used to work when i was using windows
[07:05] <jusama14> Toma-, Are you still there??
[07:05] <CirroX> thelostpatrol: did you try it via command line ?
[07:05] <Flannel> !automatix | thelostpatrol
[07:06] <stefg> jusama14: even simpler: open syaptic
[07:06] <ubotu> thelostpatrol: 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
[07:06] <sarah> heyho
[07:06] <sarah> loser
[07:06] <kekos> thank you, anyway
[07:06] <jusama14> i have synaptic open
[07:06] <__ew__> Anyone know when Feisty will upgrade to Python 2.5.1 *final* ?
[07:06] <thelostpatrol> i'm a noob please tell me what to open to do a command line install
[07:06] <Toma-> jusama14: yep.
[07:06] <mc44> __ew__: feisty is unlikey to upgrade python
[07:06] <CirroX> thelostpatrol: open a terminal an type : sudo apt-get install gaim
[07:06] <soundray> kekos: mice aren't very demanding. You'd really have to find another storage device to narrow down the error source.
[07:07] <jusama14> Toma-, I have read through all the information. This guide still does not tell me how to launch a game
[07:07] <Ali_ix> thelostpatrol: text-mode install si available via alternate cd or dvd
[07:07] <stefg> jusama14: check the preferences - packge sources
[07:07] <jusama14> and how do i exit the thing...i can't type anything
[07:07] <CirroX> thelostpatrol: that should do the trick, if not please let me know the error
[07:07] <Toma-> jusama14: you can read the documentation on the xmame website aswell. :)
[07:07] <jusama14> lol, I just want to play 1 game, w/out sound or anything
[07:08] <thelostpatrol> where do i open this terminal
[07:08] <thelostpatrol> i don't see the option, sorry
[07:08] <jusama14> stefg, I do not see package sources
[07:08] <shwag> why is my mouse jumpy whenever I use the keyboard ??
[07:08] <__ew__> Can someone point me to docs on how to downgrade a package (Feisty's Python 2.5.1rc1 appears to have a bug that is breaking my Django and I'd like to downgrade to Python 2.4)
[07:08] <CirroX> thelostpatrol : under the menu aand then accesoires
[07:08] <Ali_ix> thelostpatrol: ypou should download desktop alternate cd and boot from it,
[07:08] <thelostpatrol> oh sorry i got it now thanks
[07:08] <moon1> Choppy video in Feisty, anyone? Edgy video worked fine and Fesity-upgraded-from-Edgy video worked fine, but Feisty-clean-reinstalled video is choppy.
[07:08] <shwag> __ew__: apt-get remove    apt-get install
[07:08] <CirroX> thelostpatrol: good luck!
[07:08] <stefg> jusama14: i run agerman locale, might be different... third menu: Settings, package sources
[07:08] <bagrupe> __ew__: python 2.4 can be installed parallely
[07:09] <mc44> moon1: you have installed graphics drivers?
[07:09] <MonsieurBon> hello
[07:09] <shwag> moon1:  the kind of video is important information
[07:09] <moon1> Just about any files I can find.
[07:09] <thelostpatrol> thanks for the help guys, i'll install in a second and see what happens
[07:09] <mc44> moon1: what graphics card?
[07:10] <__ew__> I also need mod_python version 2.4.  I tried apt-get remove  apt-get install but apt said "E: Package libapache2-mod-python2.4 has no installation candidate"
[07:10] <m0r7rey> Hi i have a question - How can i write in other languages through ubuntu :) Sorry 3 day on linux ;)
[07:10] <jusama14> stefg, I see: General, columns and fonts, colors, files, networks, and distribution
[07:10] <moon1> This is an old AT Radeon 7500.
[07:10] <not_a_k> does ubuntu have a group member limit?
[07:10] <MonsieurBon> I installed vpnc and network-manager-vpnc. How can I configure VPN connections through network manager? When I click on the applet I only get "manual configuration". I'm using static IP on this computer for various reasons.
[07:10] <shwag> moon1: buy a new card
[07:10] <ouioui> hi i'm trying to find the name of the program which is used for changing the sound volume on feisty with the extra touch keyboard because since i've install keytouch i only could use amixer
[07:10] <not_a_k> can a user be a member of lots and lots and lots of groups?
[07:10] <Kaepora> http://digg.com/security/www_hd_dvd_key_com_Easy_to_remember_access_to_the_magic_number
[07:10] <shwag> MonsieurBon: i went back to vpnc command line.  the gui gave me troubles.
[07:10] <not_a_k> on an old freebsd machine i was stuck at 16 and had to recompile the kernel to get anymore
[07:10] <jusama14> Toma-, They actually don't have the documentation on the site, if you could please help me get this 1 game running I would be very gratefu
[07:11] <moon1> Is such an old card really that much of a problem?
[07:11] <shwag> MonsieurBon: and that is actually the same issue...the vpnc menu disappears when you use static ip...go figure.
[07:11] <Toma-> jusama14: i havent used it in a long while :( id be just reading the docs from their website
[07:11] <Flannel> __ew__: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[07:11] <cavicster> how do you list the filesystems that the mount command supports?
[07:11] <kekos> soundray - I have asked in other forum, they have told me that it could be that the pen is formatted as NTFS
[07:11] <shwag> MonsieurBon: the network-manager is like very beta.
[07:11] <mc44> moon1: it shouldnt be if it was working on edgy
[07:11] <mc44> moon1: are you using the fglrx drivers?
[07:11] <__ew__> Flannel: I just upgraded to Feisty
[07:11] <kekos> it should be formatted as ext3 or Fat32
[07:12] <shwag> cavicster: the mount command is just and alias.. its the kernel that supports them.
[07:12] <stefg> jusama14: try to find the setting in synaptic where the sources for the downloads are specified. simply set that to somthing different than US
[07:12] <hilfe> poland plis
[07:12] <m0r7rey> Hi i have a question - How can i write in other languages through ubuntu :) Sorry 3 day on linux ;)
[07:12] <jusama14> stefg, ohk, thx
[07:12] <moon1> Is flgx enabled by default?
[07:12] <hilfe> poland plis
[07:12] <kekos> I just wanted to let you know, thanks
[07:12] <mc44> moon1: nope
[07:12] <soundray> kekos: unlikely. Ubuntu would read NTFS just fine if it was that.
[07:12] <MonsieurBon> shwag, well, the only thing I'm looking for, is an indicator, that shows whether i've established a connection or not. Do you know some other way to do that?
[07:12] <moon1> It's a clean install, haven't messed with anything yet.
[07:12] <CirroX> m0r7rey: what do you mean ? system language ?
[07:12] <shwag> m0r7rey: no idea. i only speak english unfortunately.
[07:12] <Flannel> __ew__: Feisty has python2.5
[07:12] <mc44> moon1: try going into system->admin-> restricted driver manager
[07:12] <CirroX> m0r7rey: or openoffice spelling check or something ?
[07:12] <m0r7rey> i mean like writing in Bulgarian
[07:12] <hilfe> poland
[07:12] <m0r7rey> no just in forums
[07:12] <shwag> MonsieurBon: with vpnc?  you could write a script that checks  ifconfig
[07:13] <cprgmswr2> help
[07:13] <moon1> Restricted driver manager says I don't have anything with restricted drivers.
[07:13] <cprgmswr2> oops sorry
[07:13] <soundray> kekos: do you have any valuable data on the device?
[07:13] <cavicster> schwag, is there a way to look at what the kernel supports. Look at the sources?
[07:13] <shwag> MonsieurBon: or go fix the vpnc gui sources
[07:13] <jusama14> Toma-, You know more about this than I, I am completely new to linux and I do not under stand these commands or know how to exectute them
[07:13] <__ew__> Flannel: So should I do 'apt-get remove python && apt-get install python-2.4' or similar?
[07:13] <jusama14> execute*
[07:13] <trumpeter2003> I sure wish there was a way to remove the default -- from being appended to signautres ... lame example of programmers thinking they know what clients want and not giving them complete freedom for configuration!
[07:13] <delire> i have two Ubuntu 7.04 machines on a LAN, one of which has attached a working printer. is there a good HOWTO for sharing that printer with the other over the LAN? i've only found docs for Edgy..
[07:13] <mc44> moon1: ah your card must be too old, never mind
[07:13] <m0r7rey> how to change the language from English to say Bulgarian :) that's what i mena
[07:13] <MonsieurBon> shwag, that's a bit over my skills! :) Like the taskbar lock symbol in windows
[07:13] <stefg> !info language-support-bg
[07:13] <ubotu> language-support-bg: metapackage for Bulgarian language support. In component main, is optional. Version 1:7.04+20070320 (feisty), package size 2 kB, installed size 40 kB
[07:13] <mc44> moon1: are you running compiz or beryl?
[07:13] <shwag> MonsieurBon: yah...well, no solution. wait for someone else to do it then.
[07:13] <w00dr0w> IT WORKS!
[07:13] <w00dr0w> woot
[07:14] <shwag> owls
[07:14] <moon1> ooh! yeah, I have the desktop effects on. let me try disabling that.
[07:14] <w00dr0w> took me forever to figure out how to get gaim to work with irc
[07:14] <m0r7rey> yeah i saw it from there but how i change it in order to write with it ??
[07:14] <cavicster> i thought that there was something in /proc to see supported file systems. I just cannot remember where it was
[07:14] <moon1> but I used to have this machine with an even older ATI Radeon 7000, and video worked fine there, too.
[07:14] <shwag> w00dr0w: is it worth it? i always use gnome-xchat
[07:14] <w00dr0w> no x-chat on this distro of ubuntu
[07:15] <Wriest> how do I use cmopiz?
[07:15] <dak> how come ubuntu is patched with ipw3945 wifi drivers but doesnt have a package for them ?
[07:15] <Wriest> compiz*
[07:15] <w00dr0w> anyways, back to the reason im here
[07:15] <mc44> Wriest: what video card?
[07:15] <stefg> m0r7rey: sudo apt-get install language-support-bg , then add a keyboard switcher to your gnme-panel
[07:15] <Wriest> NVidia 6100 GPU
[07:15] <shwag> why is my mouse jumpy whenever I use the keyboard ??
[07:15] <m0r7rey> stefg thank you i will try it :)
[07:15] <jusama14> Toma-, anyway their docs are not on their website
[07:15] <Flannel> __ew__: why do you want 2.4?  2.5 is the standard version on Feisty
[07:16] <mc44> Wriest: try going into System -> preferences -> desktop effects
[07:16] <Mishaal> Does linux work well in DELL laptops ??
[07:16] <Wriest> ok
[07:16] <__ew__> Flannel: 2.5.1rc1 has a bug in the way it handles dictionary .get()   It is breaking my Django installation.
[07:16] <w00dr0w> if anyone has the time (and knows the ways of ubuntu) i need help transfering files from one HDD to another. If anyone can help me please whisper me so im not filled with all this other text
[07:16] <beni> Mishaal: it should ;)
[07:16] <s1> Toma-, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/111822
[07:16] <shatrat> Mishaal, depends on the wireless and graphics chipsets, but everthing else is probably fine
[07:16] <w00dr0w> yes, linux works on prettymuch every computer known to man
[07:16] <Flannel> __ew__: did you file a bug against it at launchpad?
[07:16] <beni> Mishaal: try a live CD, eg the Ubuntu one
[07:16] <cavicster> Mishaal: Backtrack works on my latitude d620
[07:16] <Wriest> will that be in beryl settings
[07:17] <hilfe> hej poland plis
[07:17] <__ew__> Flannel: I'm just looking into that now.  But, I'd like to get my Django working first.
[07:17] <cavicster> wireless is still finicky, but it has a PCMCIA slot.
[07:17] <m0r7rey> stefg: thanks a lot it worked :)
[07:17] <moon1> mc44: thanks for the tip! I feel kinda foolish now. video looks much better without desktop effects.
[07:17] <Mishaal> i guess it doesn`s.when it is of ATI Graphics beni :)
[07:17] <mc44> Wriest: eh? you cant run compiz and beryl at the same time
[07:17] <stefg> m0r7rey: np :-)
[07:17] <__ew__> So the question remains, how do I get mod_python 2.4 in Feisty?
[07:17] <Wriest> I did not know that
[07:17] <mc44> moon1: no problems. If you want desktop effects, are you using totem for videos?
[07:17] <beni> Mishaal: waah okay ATI could get you in trouble.. but I exeperienced n1 compatibility with the nvidia drivers ;)
[07:18] <Toma-> thanks s1
[07:18] <moon1> yeah, I'm using totem.
[07:18] <moon1> and democracyplayer.
[07:18] <Wriest> mc44 So if I have beryl I can't use compiz?
[07:18] <mc44> Wriest: not at the same time
[07:18] <lcphr3ak> Alright, i found my issue with VNC. It's with Beryl. Is there a way to connect via vino (VNC) to a computer with Beryl running?
[07:18] <mc44> moon1: try using VLC with desktop effects, may work better
[07:19] <hilfe> i have scripi instal nvidia and beryl
[07:19] <swuboo> I believe Beryl and Compiz have a merged version out, though.
[07:19] <Mishaal> perhaps no one uses ubntu in arabia except me. that is why i am trying to promote it :)
[07:19] <Mishaal> beni
[07:19] <beni> swuboo: imho not now
[07:19] <jusama14> hello? Any help?
[07:19] <moon1> mc44: i'll try that later. thanks for the tips!
[07:19] <libervisco> Hello people
[07:19] <Flannel> __ew__: you dont.  The only python apache module is for 2.5

[07:19] <beni> Mishaal: hehe :) I'm sorry but i cant help you out with ATI graphic cards, but my buddy got some trouble with it
[07:19] <swuboo> beni: Ah, their de-fork isn't out yet?
[07:20] <libervisco> there seems to be a bug in migration assistant in feisty
[07:20] <w00dr0w> So i could really use some help getting some files transferred from 1 HDD to another, if anyone can help please (and i mean pretty please with whipped-cream, chocolate sauce, butterscotch, and a cherry to top it all off)
[07:20] <soundray> lcphr3ak: I don't think so. VNC just doesn't support OpenGL
[07:20] <__ew__> Flannel: ok.  Thanks for your input.
[07:20] <Mishaal> i am not gonna work on ATI beni :)
[07:20] <Toma-> s1: gimme a sec ill pic thru

[07:20] <Anarch> Sticky keys: Just turned them on by accident, haven't found out how to turn them off, <Enter> doesn't work on xterms any more, I need the computer for work now, help!
[07:20] <Wriest> mc44: I only see Desktop Background under the Systems Preferences
[07:21] <lcphr3ak> soundray: crap, and i knew i should have setup ssh! (i'm not even remotly near my server). Is SSH enabled by default?
[07:21] <Flannel> __ew__: however, that bug ought to be fixed quickly, so reporting it is a good thing
[07:21] <lcphr3ak> soundray: or atleast telnet?
[07:21] <Flannel> lcphr3ak: no.  Nothing is listening by default
[07:21] <mc44> Wriest: are you running feisty?
[07:21] <swuboo> Anarch:  System, Preferences, Accessibility, Keyboard Accessibility.
[07:21] <__ew__> Flannel: yep, will-do.  Thanks.
[07:21] <soundray> lcphr3ak: neither. You'll have to ring someone and ask them to 'sudo apt-get install ssh'
[07:21] <Anarch> swuboo: THANKS.  Trying ...
[07:22] <m0r7rey> How can i change the font colour of "Applications" at the top corner ?
[07:22] <lcphr3ak> soundray: yeah, i was thinking that, but no one is home :-/
[07:22] <swuboo> Anarch:  You should be able to disable sticky-keys /entirely/ there.
[07:22] <w00dr0w> soo noone wants to help the naive?
[07:22] <w00dr0w> :'(
[07:22] <jusama14> Does anyone here know how to use xmame?
[07:22] <swuboo> w00dr0w:  I don't know if I'll be able to help, but what's your problem?
[07:22] <w00dr0w> i dont want to logon as root to do this
[07:23] <soundray> w00dr0w: give a bit more detail. And leave out the decorations.
[07:23] <w00dr0w> swuboo, can i msg you so im not confused by all the text flying by?
[07:23] <cramop> hi, I have installed 7z-full which can handle RAR archive extraction. How can I make archive manager use that property?
[07:23] <Anarch> swuboo: There's no "System" menu (this is Kubuntu); guessing you mean "System Settings".
[07:23] <soundray> swuboo, w00dr0w, we could go to #ubuntu-classroom
[07:24] <nickspoon> cramop: You could just install rar.
[07:24] <m0r7rey> Is there a way i can change the font colour of "Applications" at the top corner ?  Thanks in advanced
[07:24] <w00dr0w> ill be there with bells on
[07:24] <swuboo> Anarch:  Sorry, no.  I meant System, but I was referring to Gnome.  I've never used Kubuntu.
[07:25] <Wriest> mc44: no I'm running edgy
[07:25] <mc44> !compiz | Wriest
[07:25] <ubotu> Wriest: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:25] <mc44> Wriest: read those links for instructions
[07:26] <Catball> Hi, I had a few questions. I'm testing Ubuntu in VMWare for one of my friends without having to reboot my Windows host OS. I may virtually eaven install it to a virtual hard-drive. But I had a few questions. The first one is,
[07:26] <Anarch> swuboo: So belatedly I tried `/topic #kubuntu` and learned of that channel's existence.  I'll try there.  Thanks.
[07:26] <m0r7rey> Is there a way i can change the font colour of "Applications" at the top corner ?  Thanks in advanced
[07:27] <Catball> Isn't there a file somewhere something like /etc/local.start where you can put commands you'd like to have the system run before the login prompt comes up? For example, if I wanted my system to automatically run Speech-Dispatcher, /etc/init.d/Speech-Dispatcher, couldn't I just put that command into that file?
[07:27] <Wriest> oh ok
[07:28] <Wriest> thanx
[07:28] <cramop> nickspoon, I'd prefer packages from the main section
[07:28] <ubuntunewbie> Hi, I'm having problems with a fresh install of Feisty. WPA-PSK is causing me grief. I've got it working but it working but i need to "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" every boot to get it to connect. Has anyone got any ideas as to why or how I can fix it..... - I created config manually based on instructions at -  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202834&highlight=wpa-psk. thanks.
[07:28] <soundray> Catball: /etc/rc.local
[07:28] <nickspoon> cramop: Hmm, the only one in main is the one that extracts rar, isn't it?
[07:28] <Catball> Ah
[07:29] <MonsieurBon> I have no sound from youtube videos. How can I fix this?
[07:29] <cramop> nickspoon, 7z extracts rar
[07:29] <jusama14> Can someone help me run a game on xmame?
[07:29] <Catball> The other question. If I install Ubuntu onto a hard-drive and remove gdm with apt-get uninstall gdm, or whatever, will Ubuntu's then launch into the standard terminal?
[07:30] <nickspoon> cramop: So does unrar-free.
[07:30] <cramop> nickspoon, isn't it odd that I cannot get any preferences for archive manager application?
[07:30] <soundray> Catball: it's better to disable gdm with 'sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove'
[07:30] <Wriest> mc44: Don't I type this !compiz | Wriest in the terminal
[07:30] <cramop> nickspoon, unrar-free does not work for some rar files
[07:30] <soundray> Catball: that way, you don't have to remove any metapackages that depend on gdm.
[07:30] <m0r7rey> Is there a way to directly update from ubuntu to kubuntu ?
[07:30] <MonsieurBon> huh, it has fixed itself":)
[07:30] <mc44> Wriest: no, read the links from ubotu for instructions
[07:30] <nickspoon> cramop: I don't think you can do that, then.
[07:31] <soundray> m0r7rey: 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop', then select a kde session at the login window
[07:31] <Pelo> m0r7rey,  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:31] <Catball> Ah
[07:31] <m0r7rey> ok thanks  :)
[07:31] <nickspoon> cramop: Not without changing the code anyway.
[07:32] <Pelo> m0r7rey,  that will make both desktops available to you you can select which you want from the login screen
[07:32] <stefg> cramop: fileroller isn't aware that 7zip can extract rar-files...you could try to symlink the 7zip binary to rar, but that'll only work if the syntax is the same
[07:32] <ubuntunewbie> can anyone help with my wpa-psk wireless not connecting at boot? Am running a fresh copy of Feisty
[07:32] <Catball> Does anyone here know of any good accessible IRC client for Ubuntu that works well with the Orca screen-reading software? Orca is a screen-access program for the blind/visually-impaired.
[07:32] <mc44> nickspoon: and with it being non-free, that could be tricky
[07:32] <nickspoon> mc44: I mean changing the code of file-roller, silly.
[07:33] <tomb_> hello everyone
[07:33] <mc44> Catball: you might try asking in #ubuntu-accessibility
[07:34] <ubuntunewbie> anyone?
[07:35] <jusama14> Can anyone help me use xmame?
[07:35] <predaeus> ubuntunewbie, did you check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs not sure if it might help though
[07:35] <Wriest> mc44: which one is better in your opinion, Beryl  or Compiz?
[07:35] <mc44> Wriest: depends, only you can decide :)
[07:36] <ubuntunewbie> thanks predaeus - i'll have a look
[07:36] <jusama14> Please, can someone help me figure out how to use xmame???
[07:36] <Catball> Also, in Gnome-terminal, I know Ubuntu supports the "ifconfig eth0" or whatever command. (I have a static network) so that means I'd have to manually configure eth0 all the time. But is there any easyer dialog-based way taht lets you enter the information? Because I find opening up /etc/resolv.conf etc to be a bit repetitive.
[07:36] <Wriest> oh ok
[07:36] <predaeus> Wriest, actually the Compiz and Beryl projects will be/are joined again, so there is only one project again ...yeeeeha
[07:36] <AForgue> O_o
[07:36] <Wriest> mc44: so there's no need to get compiz
[07:37] <mc44> Wriest: not if you like beryl
[07:37] <Catball> Especially having to type something like sudo ifconfig eth0 <IP.address up sudo route add default gw <IP.address sudo nano -w /etc/resolv.conf ..etc. Very repetitive entering information that way eaven from the Live CD>
[07:37] <buddha> need help for Oo from MS office where find help
[07:37] <predaeus> Catball, I think there is some Network Manager in Ubuntu that does things like that. Sorry I am on Xubuntu now so can't check the details. Should be somewhere in your System menu.
[07:37] <stefg> Catball: as i read about orca it might be that chatzilla is a good IRC client to work with it, since it is only a firefox exension
[07:37] <Gaspro> got a question upon /etc/network/interfaces: i did those lines with a goal in mind: if eth0 cable gets disconnected and then re-connected, the pc should connect again to ADSL service... why this doesn't works ?
[07:37] <Gaspro> pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf
[07:37] <Gaspro> pre-up iptables-restore < /etc/init.d/iptables
[07:37] <Gaspro> post-up  /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:38] <__Ace__> how can I access the panel at the top of the screen with the keyboard?
[07:38] <mc44> Catball: network-applet?
[07:38] <Wriest> mc44: yes I like beryl but is trying to learn the max on beryl, but it's so much
[07:38] <__Ace__> gnome
[07:38] <shwag> the System Monitor panel only shows percentage of network being used. What can I use to actually get a throughput in kilobytes ?
[07:38] <Catball> I'm basically searching for an alternitive way of setting up my network interfaces beyond ifconfig.
[07:38] <shwag> i used to use DU Meter in windows and it was great.
[07:38] <cramop> thanks stefg and nickspoon
[07:38] <Catball> But I'm stuck with a keyboared. And I can't see a monitor. LOL
[07:39] <axbard> I have a problem I installed new grafic drivers (i have ati 9800pro) and when I run fglrxinfo I get this display: :0.0  screen: 0
[07:39] <axbard> OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
[07:39] <axbard> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[07:39] <axbard> OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1)
[07:39] <__Ace__> anyone?
[07:39] <__Ace__> there gotta be some shortkey for it
[07:39] <mc44> Catball: then a gui wont help? as I said, gnome uses network-applet to do that
[07:39] <predaeus> __Ace__, try ctrl-esc
[07:39] <predaeus> not sure
[07:39] <__Ace__> no go
[07:39] <bigjohnto> which would be a better way to backup a system? dump or tar?
[07:39] <predaeus> __Ace__, hm no idea then sry
[07:40] <__Ace__> works in kde I think though
[07:40] <soundray> Catball: by default, you can setup interfaces permanently via /etc/network/interfaces (man interfaces has syntax info)
[07:40] <predaeus> __Ace__, yea in xfce too
[07:40] <stefg> !backup | bigjohnto
[07:40] <ubotu> bigjohnto: 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
[07:40] <shwag> i prefer rsync for backups
[07:40] <bigjohnto> thanks stefg
[07:40] <St3D|away> anyone know of good dvd to divx ripper/convertor
[07:41] <FakeOutdoorsman> i agree with shwag for computer to computer backups
[07:41] <dooglus> in nautilus, I've set it up with "single click to open items".  is there some way of having "hover" select items?
[07:41] <shatrat> St3D|away, theres a program called dvdrip in the repos i think, but I dont use it much
[07:41] <shwag> dooglus: that would be cool
[07:41] <__Ace__> uh, ALT+F1 apparently
[07:41] <raphis> hello people
[07:42] <Catball> Okay, how do I get to the system menu of the Gnome desktop?
[07:42] <Catball> I hoped at first that the Intneret submenu was where you setup stuff using the desktop. But I see that it contains Evolution and firefox web browser, and something else.
[07:42] <St3D|away> ooh nice
[07:42] <raphis> has anybody know better program to play mp3 than xmms ?????????????????????????
[07:43] <KonLy> Is there a distro I should wait for before I start downloading Ubuntu 7.04? Any *Hot new* one's comeing out?
[07:43] <Catball>  Remember, I'm amazingly using this through speech. Wich I think kis just amazing!
[07:43] <stefg> Catball: alt-f1 and left-arrow twice
[07:43] <St3D|away> shatrat where do you find out  the whoel list of tool available
[07:43] <Catball> is just
[07:43] <jusama14> Can someone help me use xmame?
[07:43] <trumpeter2003> raphis: amaroK?
[07:43] <mc44> Catball: just run network-applet
[07:43] <raphis> hmmm
[07:43] <raphis> i should try :D
[07:43] <soundray> Catball: stefg is almost right (right arrow twice or left arrow once)
[07:43] <raphis> do u know where i can get it?
[07:44] <trumpeter2003> KonLy: Ubuntu is on the every 6 month new distro plan. So getting a version doesn't mean that you can upgrade later without the fear of loss to data.
[07:44] <jusama14> Can someone help me use xmame?
[07:44] <trumpeter2003> raphis: apt-get install amarok
[07:44] <raphis> thanx ;] 
[07:44] <stefg> soundray: erm... thanks for not publishing my left-right confusion too much :-)
[07:44] <shatrat> St3D|away, not sure what you mean by whole list available.  you can search around in Synaptic but I dont think youll find anything but dvd rip.  I use k9copy to copy dvds and I believe it also has a function for making mpeg4s as well
[07:44] <jusama14> I have already installed it using package manager
[07:44] <Catball> What if  you spessify an interface as an argument to network-applet like network-applet eth0?
[07:45] <hele> Should xorg-driver-fglrx work normaly with radeon 9800? I get black screen of death. I read somewhere that it is problem with xSeries adapters.
[07:45] <hauks> when i enable desctop effects, the screen just turnes brown, and i can't see anything. I've downloaded beryl, but don't get it working... any tips fellow ubuntu users? :)
[07:45] <soundray> stefg: welcome :)
[07:45] <Guitrokr> when i type messages to people in gaim on ubuntu it does random things midsentence while im typing, like redirect my typing to the middle of the sentence or something, or flip my cube around wildly, or select another window, or drop down the right click menu, and all i'm doing is typing, does anyone else have this problem?
[07:45] <trumpeter2003> jusama14: You might want look at this site, as it is the main site for xmame, http://x.mame.net/
[07:45] <Swarms> Hey, anyone who got a joostaccount who might consider sending an invite? :)
[07:45] <soundray> Catball: it's not designed to be used via the command line.
[07:45] <jusama14> trumpeter2003, Yes, I have looked at that site
[07:45] <aomarc> anyone know where the best place to ask an external harddrive question is
[07:45] <deepsa> !7.10
[07:45] <jusama14> however, they do not give you insturctions on where to put the game and how to launch the game
[07:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 7.10 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:46] <soundray> aomarc: ask here if it's ubuntu-related
[07:46] <trumpeter2003> 7.10 comes out in about 5 months and is named gutsy
[07:46] <stefg> aomarc: ask your qustion and we'll see
[07:46] <deepsa> !gutsy
[07:46] <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

[07:46] <ubotu> For information on KDE 4 (not to be released for quite some time yet), see: http://www.canllaith.org/svn-features/kde4.html. Also worth checking are: appeal/phonon/plasma/solid.kde.org
[07:47] <aomarc> I just upgraded to Feisty and my external harddrive wouldn't mount. So I mounted it manually, but it keeps getting mounted read-only
[07:47] <aomarc> any help
[07:47] <DShepher1> deepsa: you can message the bot in private /msg ubout <text>
[07:47] <stefg> aomarc: waht filesystem is it?
[07:47] <trumpeter2003> aomarc: You might need to build write support for the file system it is using
[07:47] <paulo> I need help... I've taken away the menu bar from Konqueror and I need it back... I just don't know what to do
[07:47] <aomarc> ntfs
[07:47] <stefg> !fuse | ntfs-3g
[07:47] <ubotu> ntfs-3g: Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[07:47] <andy__> is it possible to use two monitors plus the TV on a Nvidia 7600GT card?
[07:47] <trumpeter2003> aomarc: apt-get install ntfs-3g, change /etc/fstab to use ntfs-3g instead of ntfs for the file system
[07:48] <paulo> please someone help me
[07:48] <DShepher1> paulo: try asking in #kubuntu.. those guys are experts there :-)
[07:48] <stefg> !ntfs-3g | aomarc
[07:48] <ubotu> aomarc: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[07:48] <Possum> andy__, I don't know that particular card, but if it's like mine, then no
[07:48] <Catball> How well does Ubuntu work with multi-channel support on sound cards, mixing audio streams etc?
[07:48] <comrade`phil> hmm
[07:48] <Catball> Like, using a speech-system while playing an audio file or something?
[07:48] <andy__> Possum, what is holding it back?
[07:48] <predaeus> Catball, probably depends heavily on what card you are using
[07:49] <Possum> andy__, mine lets me do two monitors or one monitor and s-video to tv, but not both at once (it's a hardware limitation, not something *nix specific)
[07:49] <hauks>  when i enable desctop effects, the screen just turnes brown, and i can't see anything. I've downloaded beryl, but don't get it working... any tips fellow ubuntu users? :)
[07:49] <predaeus> -probably
[07:49] <Guitrokr> when i type messages to people in gaim on ubuntu it does random things midsentence while im typing, like redirect my typing to the middle of the sentence or something, or flip my cube around wildly, or select another window, or drop down the right click menu, and all i'm doing is typing, does anyone else have this problem?
[07:49] <tristanbob_> anyone having problems with metacity not starting after a reboot?
[07:49] <soundray> Catball: it's principally supported.
[07:49] <jusama14> Can someone help me use xmame?
[07:49] <hauks> Guitrokr,  try using amsn instead
[07:49] <jusama14> Can someone help me use xmame?
[07:49] <Guitrokr> i use AIM, does it have support for that?
[07:49] <tristanbob_> but it starts fine when I run the command "metacity"
[07:49] <andy__> Possum, ah ok.
[07:49] <predaeus> Catball, check http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/  for how cards are supported
[07:49] <Possum> andy__, you might wanna google though; you have a newer card than me :)
[07:50] <soundray> jusama14: apparently not. Repeating it won't help. Come back in an hour or so, when different people have logged on.
[07:50] <aomarc> thanks i will try that now
[07:50] <soundray> !games > jusama14, for the meantime, look at ubotu's pm
[07:50] <trumpeter2003> jusama14: Go here, yet again I'm giving you this link after you said you already had visited the page, http://x.mame.net/, and click on those wonderful links they provide on the left to narrow down your issue to be an exact question
[07:50] <w00dr0w> ok, who here can figure out how to get write access to an NTFS drive without any possible damage to the drive partition?
[07:50] <hendrik> hello
[07:50] <w00dr0w> if you know, join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[07:51] <hendrik> hello
[07:51] <w00dr0w> hi
[07:51] <jusama14> trumpeter2003, again, I will tell you that I have looked through their entire site and found no piece of information that helps
[07:51] <hauks> yo
[07:51] <trumpeter2003> w00dr0w: ntfs-3g is pretty stable and I've had no issues with it
[07:51] <ydo> w00dr0w: ntfs-3g
[07:51] <Possum> w00dr0w, you're gonna be waiting for an answer for some time
[07:51] <hauks>  when i enable desctop effects, the screen just turnes brown, and i can't see anything. I've downloaded beryl, but don't get it working... any tips fellow ubuntu users? :)
[07:51] <DShepher1> !ntfs > w00dr0w
[07:51] <bur[n] er> hauks: video card type?
[07:51] <bur[n] er> hauks: have the restricted drivers?
[07:52] <trumpeter2003> jusama14: Then ask for a more speific answer than help with xmame, but it isn't as simple as saying, how do I mount a drive to linux
[07:52] <RockClimber> hey, do the live cds include a repartitioning tool (like qtparted or somesuch) to resize existing partitions
[07:52] <Possum> w00dr0w, there's always _some_ (extremely small with ntfs-3g) chance that ntfs write will break
[07:52] <hauks> bur[n] er,  yes
[07:52] <soundray> RockClimber: gparted
[07:52] <hauks> the video card works just fine
[07:52] <RockClimber> soundray, thanks
[07:52] <hendrik> join #Ubuntu-nl
[07:52] <jusama14> How do i launch a game on xmame, where do i put it, what's the command?
[07:52] <andy__> Possum, I will do some googling :)
[07:52] <drachen> I'm trying to set up an ssh file server and a VNC server on my ubuntu box. SSH is halfway set up, I can get in using a PuTTY client, but not a file sharing client. VNC I'm stumped.
[07:52] <Possum> andy__, good luck, but don't get your hopes up :P
[07:53] <andy__> but in Windows, it also works like yours so
[07:53] <andy__> Possum, I don't ;)
[07:53] <ydo> I'm currently compiling linux-2.6.21-rc7-mm2.. but what about the 'restricted drivers' (which I need for wlan).. where are those and how do I use them with a custom kernel?
[07:53] <bur[n] er> drachen: try winscp as the file transfer client?
[07:53] <andy__> how can I still use IRC but all other internet traffic is "dead"?
[07:53] <andy__> so weird. stupid isp
[07:53] <void^> ydo: you find and compile them yourself manually. can be tricky with -mm kernels.
[07:53] <bur[n] er> drachen: use gnome?  if so, just turn on "remote desktop"
[07:54] <bur[n] er> hauks: you didn't tell me what kind of card :P
[07:54] <drachen> burner: I will try those, brb

[07:54] <trumpeter2003> jusama14: Do you use a front-end application to xmame, or are you trying to interact directly with the xmame package?
[07:54] <bur[n] er> vncserver is not an ideal way to share you desktop if you want to see the same display as displayed on the local monitor!

[07:55] <buk> Good day.
[07:55] <som1> thats helpful. :-)
[07:55] <void^> ydo: eh. i suppose so. but you won't need all those modules, so it's quite likely easier to just get those to work that you really need

[07:58] <zeus> hello, I'v Installed nvidia graphics drivers but I get the message: Your graphics card is not known to be supported by Xgl, and it is not currently configured for 3D acceleration. Why's that?
[07:58] <m0r7rey> vi
[07:58] <w00dr0w> why doesnt he take advice?
[07:58] <stefg> Wulfie: see #vmware you need the so called any-any-patch to make the modules to compile
[07:59] <cavicster> Wulfie: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_fawn_vmware_server_howto
[07:59] <bur[n] er> zeus: why are you using XGL as opposed to AIGLX?

[07:59] <soundray> w00dr0w: this kind of thing is welcome on #ubuntu-offtopic. Here, it's distracting and annoying.
[07:59] <bur[n] er> zeus: feisty is ubuntu 7.04

[08:00] <bur[n] er> zeus: did you just apt-get install the nvidia-glx-new drivers?

[08:01] <sevy> can you help?
[08:01] <bur[n] er> m0r7rey: yes... nano file.blah
[08:01] <soundray> HiddenHax: what am I to make of that bit of information?
[08:01] <thelostpatrol> okay i'm going to remove it
[08:02] <m0r7rey> bur[n] er but nevermind i just edited it how can i save it now :)
[08:02] <thelostpatrol> how do i remove automatix
[08:02] <ClayPigeon> mOr7ey: vi has command and edit mode. Esc brings you to command mode. w is the command for write, q is quit. wq = writequit.  w filename = write filename
[08:02] <RockClimber> what is the current kernel for an updated Feisty ?
[08:02] <bur[n] er> m0r7rey: esc, type :wq, hit end

[08:03] <bur[n] er> m0r7rey: for the record though... nano is waaaaaaaay easier than vi
[08:03] <sevy> doesnt give mse that option, just says you must be root to download update
[08:03] <thelostpatrol> how do i remove automatix
[08:03] <bur[n] er> thelostpatrol: format?
[08:03] <quasar7> lostpatrol: reinstall.
[08:03] <dougsko> wakeup_: the program crashed and the core dump is a file that shows what was in memory when it crashed
[08:03] <thelostpatrol> can't remove from command line?
[08:03] <m0r7rey> bur[n] er i was looking at a tutorial and they were using vi :)
[08:03] <yeti> what runlevel is rcS.d, and why isn't it accessible through kde system services configuration?
[08:03] <DShepher1> thelostpatrol: aptitude remove automatix
[08:03] <soundray> thelostpatrol: you'll have to ask the automatix developers. Here, all you'll read is reinstall.
[08:03] <wakeup_> dougsko: where can i find it?
[08:04] <dougsko> wakeup_: its probably in the same directory you called the program from
[08:04] <wakeup_> thx
[08:04] <soundray> yeti: single user mode
[08:04] <sevy> its driving me ad
[08:04] <sevy> mad

[08:05] <DShepher1> thelostpatrol: aptitude remove automatix wont work
[08:05] <Wriest> how do I make my windows transparent or see thru?
[08:05] <thelostpatrol> DShepher1, ok
[08:05] <soundray> yeti: I don't think so. Although they overlap with the regular ones.
[08:05] <yeti> soundray: because i tried to remove mdadm, evms and lvm from all my runlevels, but it still starts (and causes havoc!) when i boot my pc...
[08:05] <DShepher1> thelostpatrol: but i guess you knew that already
[08:05] <bur[n] er> !desktop-effects | Wriest

[08:06] <drachen> Excellent. That SSH client you guess suggested works great. I didn't do anything with the VNS server, but it looks like it decided to work too.
[08:06] <drachen> Thanks for the help!
[08:06] <stefg> yeti its safe to apt-get remove --purge them, and apt-get autoremove afterwards to get rid of the orphaned libs
[08:06] <kuba__>  could anyone tell me why this script is not good? : ' #!/bin/bash echo > /home/my_home_folder/.bash_history ' ??
[08:07] <soundray> kuba__: there is a newline missing before the echo
[08:07] <hylje> kuba__: don't mix the shebang (#!..) into the functionality?
[08:07] <maek> in feisty how do I restart services?
[08:07] <equilibrix> anyone here who knows how to get to work appletviewer class in Eclipse?
[08:07] <m0r7rey> bur[n] er ok man i used nano but still cant figure out how to save it
[08:07] <kuba__> soundray: 'echo' is below
[08:07] <soundray> kuba__: what do you expect it to do?
[08:08] <kuba__> soundray: to clear the list of commands in this file
[08:08] <ClayPigeon> kuba_ : you want too purge the file?  /dev/NULL > filename
[08:08] <dougsko> 'echo >' works too
[08:08] <soundray> kuba__: how are you calling it?
[08:08] <Wriest> bur[n] er: Where do I find that cause I don't see under system/preferences
[08:09] <soundray> ClayPigeon: two mistakes. Please be more careful with your advice.
[08:09] <gee> I'm trying to record the sound from my desktop. I can use alsamixer to select the mix output as the capture source, but this only records as one channel-- is there any way to record it in stereo?
[08:09] <Wriest> mc44: you busy?
[08:09] <kuba__> dougsko: but when i run it my files .bashrc and .bash_profile 'disappeared'
[08:09] <sevy> can anyone help with ClamTK, its saying i need to be root to install updates
[08:10] <dougsko> kuba__: well it shouldnt have touched .bashrc
[08:10] <yeti> stefg: okay, thank you. by the way, what is it that the ubuntu initrd contains?
[08:10] <m0r7rey> how to save i file when using nano ??
[08:10] <wakeup_> strg+o
[08:10] <wakeup_> and enter
[08:10] <kuba__> dougsko: but  it did:(
[08:10] <m0r7rey> strg ?
[08:10] <soundray> m0r7rey: look at the bottom of the window
[08:10] <DShepher1> sevy: are you the only user on the system?
[08:10] <gee> m0r7rey: control + x
[08:10] <ydo> m0r7rey: there is some help at the bottom
[08:10] <kerik> hey guys
[08:10] <wakeup_> ctrl
[08:10] <wakeup_> sry
[08:10] <m0r7rey> yes i see
[08:11] <pie-rat1> so, dell preinstalling ubuntu... PREPARE CHANNEL FOR MASSIVE INFLUX OF AOLers!!! SHIELDS AT MAXIMUM, PREPARE FOR CAPS LOCK AND TOO MUCH PUNCTUATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111111111111111111
[08:11] <m0r7rey> but don't know how to usit it
[08:11] <ydo> m0r7rey: ^ means control
[08:11] <kerik> anybody know which package to install to use bluetooth???
[08:11] <DShepher1> sevy: do you have sudo privileges?
[08:11] <m0r7rey> thanks all :)
[08:11] <m0r7rey> i was wondering what ^ :)
[08:11] <m0r7rey> obviously Control :)
[08:11] <gee> it is shorthand from old days
[08:11] <sevy> dont know, how do i check?
[08:11] <m0r7rey> sorry 3 day on linux :)
[08:11] <kuba__> dougsko: could you run this script on your system??
[08:11] <soundray> !bluetooth > kerik, please read private message
[08:11] <gee> try "sudo ls" in console and enter your password when it asks
[08:12] <vincenz> what does this mean: localhost kernel: [27527.668000]  Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason b0 on CPU 0.
[08:12] <DShepher1> sevy: do what gee said..
[08:12] <Catball> Does Ubuntu support suspending the computer, (hibernating it) in a similar way to Windows?
[08:12] <ydo> Catball: yes
[08:12] <drew> Catball: yeah
[08:12] <kerik> !bluetooth
[08:12] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[08:12] <sevy> ok
[08:12] <m0r7rey> now how i execute it :)
[08:12] <m0r7rey> :D
[08:12] <Catball> The reason I asked, was because
[08:12] <dougsko> kuba__: take this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18841/, save it to something.sh, run 'chmod +x something.sh', then ./something.sh
[08:13] <ydo> m0r7rey: ./file? chmod a+rx first?
[08:13] <gee> m0r7rey, "chmod +x filename" in console if you've made a script
[08:13] <soundray> Catball: yes, but it depends on your ACPI implementation whether it will work or not.
[08:13] <gee> m0r7rey, then ./filename
[08:13] <rummik> will ubuntu have ext3cow anytime soon?
[08:13] <dougsko> kuba__: well, fix that script so it has the actual path to your .bash_history
[08:13] <Catball> I find myself regularly needing to maintain uptime of my operating systems, without rebooting the system. But sinse we have frequent power-loss issues here, I have no choice but to hibernate the systems.
[08:13] <sevy> silly quesiton but how do i get into console?
[08:14] <Wriest> bur[n] er: Where do I find that cause I don't see under system/preferences
[08:14] <rummik> sevy: applications>>accessories>>terminal
[08:14] <gee> No ideas on recording mixed output in stereo? :(
[08:14] <soundray> sevy: Ctrl-Alt-F1 (Alt-F7 to get back)
[08:14] <Catball> Well on this new desktop I'm using WIndows on, it will.
[08:14] <Catball> the hibernation support, I mean.
[08:15] <soundray> Catball: many bugs in ACPI DSDT tables cause problems for Linux. Windows tends to ignore them.
[08:15] <krishghosh> hi folks: how to uninstall an exe application, installed thru wine ?
[08:15] <vincenz> anyone know how I can trace down what is causing:
[08:15] <vincenz> localhost kernel: [27527.668000]  Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason b0 on CPU 0.
[08:16] <soundray> Catball: anyway, chances are that if you're hibernating, it'll just work. Suspend to RAM can be more finicky
[08:16] <ydo> vincenz: do you have AMD?
[08:16] <holycow> !openoffice
[08:16] <ubotu> a free and open source office suite, including word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components.  To install: "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org". User help available in #users.openoffice.org
[08:16] <vincenz> ydo: no
[08:16] <soundray> vincenz: never seen that one. Have you searched the web?
[08:16] <vincenz> ydo: I have a Dell Latitude d610
[08:16] <vincenz> soundray: yes, to no avail
[08:16] <holycow> *hmm* does anyone know if there is a backport of oo.o 2.2 for dapper?
[08:16] <sevy> Soundray, thanks for that. Did it and it asked for password which i entered. How do i make myself root so i can download the clamtk updates
[08:16] <ydo> vincenz: I guess you have to rtfs :)
[08:17] <ydo> nmi usually means non maskable interrupt
[08:17] <soundray> sevy: 'sudo apt-get install clam...' or 'sudo -i' if you want a shell with root rights
[08:17] <krishghosh> sevy: sudo su
[08:17] <soundray> krishghosh: don't recommend sudo su please
[08:17] <odat> anyone have any experience with line-in sound?
[08:18] <stefg> holycow: even 2.1 was only available through unofficial sources
[08:18] <krishghosh> soundray: security issues ?
[08:18] <gee> odat, it works just like the microphone jack for the most part, what are you trying to do with it?
[08:18] <holycow> stefg, ah!  okay, google time then
[08:18] <holycow> stefg, thank you
[08:18] <soundray> krishghosh: no, confusion issues. You get an environment where some variables are set up for root use, and some are still the users. Tricky when it comes to ~, for example.
[08:18] <thelostpatrol> i was able to remove automatix
[08:19] <thelostpatrol> i used: sudo apt-get remove automatix2
[08:19] <soundray> thelostpatrol: well done. How?
[08:19] <thelostpatrol> no problems
[08:19] <zancik> People who knows channel about PHP?
[08:19] <krishghosh> soundray: point taken
[08:19] <odat> gee, i had it working yesterday   I run my tv card into the line in port but today it doesn't work.... i checked and it not muted or anything
[08:19] <thelostpatrol> thank you for your warnings, i read up about it and i don't like the premise by which it operates
[08:19] <thelostpatrol> i want to stay legit with ubuntu
[08:19] <soundray> thelostpatrol: hope it hasn't left any damage behind. You will know when you upgrade to gutsy ;)
[08:19] <gee> did you make sure that "capture" wasn't muted as well?
[08:19] <thelostpatrol> i don't think it has, 'cause i didn't use it for much other than gaim
[08:20] <krishghosh> hi folks: how to uninstall an exe application, installed thru wine ?
[08:20] <rummik> does ubuntu have drivers for ext3cow?
[08:20] <thelostpatrol> and xchat
[08:20] <soundray> rummik: what is that?
[08:20] <DShepher1> krishghosh: do you have wine installed?
[08:20] <orgy`> why is there no wxpython-unicode package in the reps? :(
[08:20] <kerik> bluetooth ubuntu????
[08:20] <odat> gee, yup capture is not muted either
[08:20] <rummik> soundray: http://www.ext3cow.com/
[08:20] <DShepher1> krishghosh: wine app.exe
[08:20] <kerik> have tried the help in ubuntu, but doesn't work
[08:20] <krishghosh> Dshepherl: eyes
[08:20] <krishghosh> yes
[08:20] <krishghosh> Dshepherl: ok, thanks
[08:20] <DShepher1> krishghosh: wine app.exe #should work
[08:20] <orgy`> or how do i install it ?
[08:21] <soundray> rummik: is it stable?
[08:21] <pie-rat1> so how much effect do you guys think dell preinstalls will have on the overall adoption of ubuntu itself and linux-based OSes in general?
[08:21] <rummik> soundray: i'd assume so
[08:21] <odat> gee, if I put the speakers directly into the tv card the sound works no problem
[08:21] <DShepher1> pie-rat1: discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[08:21] <soundray> rummik: ask for it to be included in gutsy by filing a wishlist bug.
[08:21] <rummik> soundray: ok
[08:21] <soundray> !bugs > rummik
[08:21] <gee> odat, can you try plugging a microphone into line-in and seeing if you hear yourself then?
[08:22] <gee> odat, this really isn't my area of expertise so sorry if I'm saying things you've already thought of
[08:22] <sevy> did that and still when i go back to shell, it still says you must be root to intall updates
[08:22] <ydo> so, now I've compiled a brand new shiny 2.6.21-rc7-mm2 kernel.. do I need the initrd too? or can I just skip it?
[08:22] <rummik> soundray: thanks

[08:24] <soundray> drobvice: assuming it's called 'script', run 'sudo cp -i script /usr/local/bin/ ; chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/script' You can then start it with 'script'
[08:24] <bmonkey> my mount is "/dev/sdg2 on /media/MuffinDrive type hfsplus (rw)", but if i try to write to it, i get the error "Read-only file system". journaling is turned off. how can i mount my drive to write?
[08:25] <BKisME> anybody?
[08:25] <Baje> hi
[08:25] <gordonjcp> bmonkey: "mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdg2" would be worth a shot

[08:25] <void^> BKisME: did you try Y instead of y?
[08:25] <drobvice> when I run it I get: Dialog was not found. Check your system and your path. Exiting.
[08:25] <BKisME> void, no I tried both
[08:26] <OuZo> is there a way to use usb-flash drives to "speed-up" Ubuntu like Vista uses them? thanks
[08:26] <predaeus> BKisME, did you try just hitting enter, the capital letter is often the default option
[08:26] <BKisME> 1 sec
[08:26] <graveso1> how do i add the additional software sources
[08:26] <bmonkey> gordonjcp: thx, but that didnt work :(
[08:26] <xxtreme> can someone help me with Mplayer?
[08:27] <Pici> OuZo: You could make a swap partition on your usb stick, but I dont think its going to speed anything up.
[08:27] <soundray> drobvice: does the script call a program called dialog? If so, install it: 'sudo apt-get install dialog'
[08:27] <BKisME> Enter still aborts
[08:27] <gordonjcp> bmonkey: what does "didn't work" mean here?
[08:27] <zancik> People who knows channel about PHP?
[08:27] <Pici> zancik: #php ?
[08:27] <zancik> ths
[08:27] <Pici> zancik: Rather ##php
[08:27] <m0r7rey> when i had installed Kunbuntu and Ubuntu how i change to KDE ??
[08:28] <xxtreme> Mplayer says error opening/initializing the selected video_out
[08:28] <soundray> m0r7rey: by selecting it at the login screen, like I told you before
[08:28] <bmonkey> gordonjcp: the drive is still not writable, i get the error "Read-only file system", if i try to sudo cp on it
[08:28] <gee> m0r7rey, when you log in click the "session" button
[08:28] <OuZo> Pici: ok, just wondering... my swap is 2.9G so that should be big enough for now... Ubuntu is fast enough anyway, i never really find myself waiting
[08:28] <PriceChild> m0r7rey: on the login screen, start the session menu from bottom left then lick the session entry then choose kubuntu
[08:28] <gordonjcp> bmonkey: strange
[08:28] <Memories> hello everyone
[08:28] <bmonkey> gordonjcp: thx, but that didnt work :(
[08:28] <w00dr0w> where is that bot when i need him
[08:28] <Memories> could anyone help me out with my networking problem!
[08:28] <gee> m0r7rey, it should let you choose between "default Gnome", "KDE", "Failsafe", etc., choose KDE and if you want tell it to make it your default choice when it asks
[08:28] <bmonkey> gordonjcp: japp ^^
[08:29] <gordonjcp> bmonkey: what happens if you do "sudo su" and then try to cp to the drive?
[08:29] <Memories> i have ICS turned on between XP (host) and edgy (client)
[08:29] <PriceChild> w00dr0w: he's here?
[08:29] <m0r7rey> ok :)
[08:29] <m0r7rey> thx
[08:29] <gordonjcp> bmonkey: be careful, because "sudo su" can be dangerous
[08:29] <musya> anybody know where to get cool ubuntu themes?
[08:29] <letharion> Mediawiki has "shortcuts", such as alt+e for "edit this page", and alt+s for "save my edits". Previously these worked for me, but at some unknown point it stopped working, and now it seems the commands are cought by firefox instead. How can I control this?
[08:29] <Memories> everything was working fine till this morning where i see mto loose my connection on the client even though i have it on the host
[08:29] <DShepher1> gordonjcp: sudo -i
[08:29] <predaeus> musya, try gnome-look.org   and art.gnome.org
[08:29] <UnluckyMike> musya: http://www.gnome-look.org

[08:30] <soundray> gordonjcp: a clean environment
[08:30] <gordonjcp> DShepher1: yeah, I'm just reading that now
[08:30] <gordonjcp> DShepher1: essentially it's equivalent to "sudo su -"

[08:38] <officer> ok u guys r real got a lot to do ill ask later
[08:38] <concept10> bobbob1016, remove the totem-moziila plugins.. use mplayer.. works great for me
[08:38] <bobbob1016> I had mediaplayer connect installed, and when I disable it, the video says "gxine"
[08:38] <Wriest> how do I tell what version of Beryl I have/
[08:38] <stefg> orangefly_: the java on your system is too old /misconfigured.. sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre , the sudo update-alternatives --config java
[08:39] <bobbob1016> concept10, I've tried mplayer, I'll retry it though
[08:39] <Wriest> how do I tell what version of Beryl I have?
[08:39] <PriceChild> Wriest: "beryl -version"
[08:39] <bobbob1016> concept10, it shows "buffering" then it just stays there
[08:39] <RememberPOL> UnluckyMike: That's gui-related. requires you have X installed because update-manager is GUI
[08:39] <RememberPOL> I'm talking commandline only/apt-related...?
[08:40] <Rolo> hello
[08:40] <UnluckyMike> RememberPOL: you can update you apt/sources.list and do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

[08:40] <PriceChild> xriddler: I don't know. Ask your question and people will answer if they know the answer.
[08:40] <PriceChild> xriddler: don't direct it to me as I may not know :)
[08:40] <tirkal> PriceChild: (any recommendation about which I should install?)
[08:40] <bobbob1016> concept10, if I try watching an apple trailer, on apple.com, it says that

[08:40] <HiddenHax> hey does anyone know why my command ifconfig -a prints only a local loopback?
[08:41] <orangefly_> predaeus: it says Aborted (core dumped)
[08:41] <RememberPOL> UnluckyMike: Just edit all 'edgy' entries to 'feisty'?
[08:41] <Wriest> Where do I find that at?
[08:41] <PriceChild> HiddenHax: because you don't have any other interfaces?
[08:41] <gxben> someone knows which package/scripts handles x.org settings autodetection (for liveCD for example) ?
[08:41] <concept10> bobbob1016, I know the pain.  Mplayer works on apple's site in my case
[08:41] <PriceChild> HiddenHax: that ubuntu recognises at least
[08:41] <UnluckyMike> RememberPOL: Yeah
[08:41] <RustyJuggler> HiddenHax: try ifconfing eth0 up
[08:41] <orangefly_> stefg: it's says java is newest....
[08:41] <HiddenHax> rustyjuggler I tried that
[08:41] <tirkal> which mail server should I install on Feisty?
[08:41] <bobbob1016> concept10, it still loads gxine
[08:42] <predaeus> orangefly_, hm no idea, probably look at azureus forums or something, or try another java version like stefg meant
[08:42] <HiddenHax> lspci shows my ethernet controller
[08:42] <predaeus> orangefly_, or maybe ubuntu forums
[08:42] <Wriest>  PriceChild: Where do I find that at?
[08:42] <dfeser> hi!
[08:42] <orangefly_> ok....ty....
[08:42] <unimatrix9> ubuntu pre-installed on dell, did you all hear?
[08:42] <bobbob1016> concept10, I've removed gxine, there is one lib left, but it says it'll remove other things if I remove it
[08:42] <dfeser> how can i get my bin onto my desktop?
[08:42] <HiddenHax> eth0 will just not show up
[08:42] <PriceChild> Wriest: where do you find what?
[08:42] <concept10> bobbob1016, whats the lib?
[08:42] <UnluckyMike> orangefly_: do you have beryl installed, I;ve heard there are unpredictable results while beryl is on with some java apps
[08:42] <stefg> orangefly_: check update-alternatives if java 6 selected
[08:42] <Wriest> Beryl Version
[08:42] <RememberPOL> UnluckyMike: Thanks.
[08:42] <bobbob1016> concept10, libxine1
[08:43] <UnluckyMike> RememberPOL: no prob
[08:43] <PriceChild> Wriest: put "beryl -version" into a terminal.
[08:43] <musya> im trying to install a theme,and it says to just drag and drop the them into the them prefrences window, but when i try and do that, i get format not supported, anybody know?
[08:43] <concept10> bobbob1016, you must have totem-xine installed?
[08:43] <Wriest> I did and it not found
[08:43] <stefg> Wriest: please go to #ubuntu-effects, instead of repeating
[08:43] <orangefly_> unluckymike: yes i do....good point....
[08:43] <unimatrix9> musya, its wrong file format
[08:43] <unimatrix9> try an other theme
[08:43] <concept10> bobbob1016, another thing you could do is go into the plugins directory and remove those libraries
[08:43] <bobbob1016> concept10, no, gstreamer
[08:44] <bobbob1016> concept10, where is the plugin directory?
[08:44] <UnluckyMike> orangefly_: try switching the window manager and decorator back to metacity
[08:44] <dfeser> hello? how can i get the recycle bin onto my desktop?
[08:44] <musya> unimatrix9: alright i got it, but now i cant see the theme in there
[08:44] <musya> it said it installed
[08:44] <bobbob1016> concept10, nevermind, found it
[08:44] <bobbob1016> concept10, what do I want to remove?

[08:45] <orangefly_> UnluckyMike: i did....it's still not working....i 'll have to search around more forums....thanks though....
[08:45] <RememberPOL> Also, does anyone know how to change the system language from, say, french to english using command-line only non-GUI configuration?
[08:45] <musya> unimatrix9: doesnt say anything else, just that
[08:45] <musya> well and but fixes....
[08:45] <bobbob1016> concept10, it loads the video, in mplayer, but then says "stopped"
[08:45] <unimatrix9> musya, there you have 3 tabs
[08:45] <concept10> bobbob1016, to aid in troubleshooting this.. use : about-plugins in FF and see what its loaded.  If youre like me, you have probably installed many media players over the years to find something that works.  Sometimes those libraries stay in the mozilla plugins folders
[08:45] <neverblue> i need a hand with uid/gids, I am running to run an app (Asterisk), and I cannot use it, I get the following error: 'unable to setgid to 120', I added myself (the user) within this group, but I still have this error.

[08:46] <danny> hello! I have a problem... I have 2 operating systems installed on my PC: Windows XP and, of course, Ubuntu :). I have a broadband connection, static IP. If I want to be connected to the internet in Linux I have to first boot Windows XP, restart and boot Ubuntu. If I power up my PC and enter directly in Ubuntu it just won't work. Any ideas why?
[08:46] <unimatrix9> musya, probably the middle one
[08:46] <tholme> !domain
[08:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about domain - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:46] <UnluckyMike> orangefly_: which version of java are you using?
[08:46] <musya> customize?
[08:46] <unimatrix9> musya, whats the theme's name?
[08:46] <musya> unimatrix9: Neutronium-Gtk2
[08:46] <concept10> bobbob1016, Which one are you trying to watch?  I still have problems with some on apples site.  Because I dont think any Linux media player supports the latest quicktime H.264 but im not positive
[08:46] <musya> its like a dark mac look
[08:47] <musya> there are 3 but that one
[08:47] <unimatrix9> is that the name?

[08:52] <w00dr0w> if they could msg me id appreciate it
[08:52] <leleobhz> hello all!
[08:52] <tom_> w00dr0w: did you follow the guide?
[08:52] <tom_> w00dr0w: did you follow the guide?
[08:52] <concept10> w00dr0w, you could ready the install instructions on the official site that will lead you to the ubuntu wiki
[08:52] <w00dr0w> as i cant follow all the flying text
[08:53] <leleobhz> someone know how to install samba 3.0.24 on dapper?
[08:53] <holycow> then might we suggest google?
[08:53] <w00dr0w> in the guide it says " Warning : This repo don't contain amd64 packages. See at the end the amd64 section for more informations.
[08:53] <w00dr0w> Feisty users don't have to deal with additionnal repository, all is already in ubuntu repo."
[08:53] <holycow> this is just how irc is
[08:53] <danny> hello! I have a problem... I have 2 operating systems installed on my PC: Windows XP and, of course, Ubuntu :). I have a broadband connection, static IP. If I want to be connected to the internet in Linux I have to first boot Windows XP, restart and boot Ubuntu. If I power up my PC and enter directly in Ubuntu it just won't work. Any ideas why?
[08:53] <thefirstdude> using apt-build, how can I specify an already downloaded source package
[08:53] <w00dr0w> i have the a64 version
[08:53] <tom_> w00dr0w: the benifits of installing 64bit are minimal.
[08:53] <mattis___> How do I check what version of a package apt-get is going to install?
[08:53] <RememberPOL> Apt-get is operating in french, how can I change this?
[08:53] <Dobzilla> O.o whoah, big chat
[08:53] <w00dr0w> well its not installed, im running it off a livecd
[08:54] <w00dr0w> i just need to copy some files over on an NTFS drive
[08:54] <tom_> RememberPOL: change your system language back to english.
[08:54] <jordan> RememberPOL: lol, is your language set to french?
[08:54] <tom_> !ntfs-3g | w00dr0w (follow this)
[08:54] <PriceChild> w00dr0w: I don't know whether you can install ntfs-3g onto a live cd... I doubt it.
[08:54] <ubotu> w00dr0w (follow this): ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:55] <tom_> w00dr0w: you're using a livecd??
[08:55] <un4get> hey
[08:55] <Dobzilla> Well err, I guess I'll just ask... Anyway, I downloaded the 6.06 version of Ubuntu, and I'm wondering if I click "start or install ubuntu", it wont affect my HD at all right? >.< I'm new to linux.
[08:55] <un4get> i have a quick question.....
[08:55] <mattis___> How do I check what version of a package apt-get is going to install?
[08:55] <jordan> I have another question: is there a way to optimize X for XMDCP across a network?
[08:55] <w00dr0w> yes
[08:55] <w00dr0w> im using a livecd
[08:55] <VR_> is there a way to turn off the grid that shows when you drag a window, when reduced_resources is selected in gconf?
[08:56] <PriceChild> Dobzilla: "click"? Isn't that on the boot menu...? You would press enter?
[08:56] <tom_> Dobzilla: no, because the installation app is inside the running ubuntu live session.
[08:56] <Dobzilla> Oh okay, that's all I needed to know. :)
[08:56] <Dobzilla> thanks guys
[08:56] <tom_g> hi anyone know of an open source sims clone?
[08:56] <ubuntu_> hello
[08:56] <w00dr0w> is it even possible to do what i need using a livecd?
[08:56] <tom_> !lincity | tom_g
[08:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lincity - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:56] <tom_> !info lincity | tom_g
[08:56] <ubotu> tom_g: lincity: build & maintain a city/country. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.13.1-6 (feisty), package size 506 kB, installed size 2880 kB
[08:57] <un4get> how do I install ubuntu? do i install it under Windows? do I need to format my HD first? couse when I clicked on "start.exe" i havent seen "install #ubuntu" only mozilla firefox and other programs....
[08:57] <Ralphius> Hello could anyone give me a sugestion about what kind of program to install to make my pinnacle card work?
[08:57] <tom_> un4get: download the cd image, burn it, and put it in your cd drive.
[08:57] <PriceChild> un4get: Ok ubuntu is not a windows program
[08:57] <tom_> un4get: then if it isn't obvious, come back here.
[08:57] <stefg> !install | unget
[08:57] <ubotu> unget: 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
[08:57] <PriceChild> un4get: what you are seeing is some little applicatinos for windows.
[08:57] <w00dr0w> un4get: burn to cd, boot from it
[08:57] <un4get> I c
[08:57] <PriceChild> un4get: follow the link frmo ubotu
[08:57] <un4get> will it cancle my Windows partettion?
[08:57] <FakeOutdoorsman> Ralphius: which pinnacle card is it?
[08:58] <tom_g> tom_ : isnt that like simcity, i mean the one with th ppl lol
[08:58] <un4get> can I run both windows and ubuntu ?
[08:58] <PriceChild> un4get: You can run both
[08:58] <w00dr0w> you can dual boot
[08:58] <un4get> will it make a windows Menu?
[08:58] <jordan> Can anyone suggest a good (no wireless) gigabit router
[08:58] <tyler> why do my programs keep fading to dark grey? are they crashing?
[08:58] <un4get> sorry
[08:58] <un4get> a bot menu
[08:58] <tom_> un4get: not necessarily, but thats a little more advanced to set up. it can resize your windows partition and create a new one after it,.
[08:58] <un4get> *boot
[08:58] <PriceChild> un4get: defrag your partition first, that guide will tell you how to install.
[08:58] <Ralphius> it is PCTV Stereo
[08:58] <PriceChild> un4get: ok I don't think you understand at all what you are doing.
[08:58] <jordan> Is it possible to send sound over XMDCP
[08:58] <PriceChild> un4get: when you start up ubuntu... there is no windows. It isn't running on windows. You can't ctrl+alt+delete back to close windows etc.
[08:59] <tom_> un4get: definitely defrag your drive, as resizing will be difficult/impossible if you don't.
[08:59] <un4get> no I did, its Ok, one last question, wats the diffrence between "Ubuntu 7.04 - Supported to 2008" and Ubuntu 6.06 LTS - Supported to 2009
[08:59] <un4get> 
[08:59] <Swarms> Hey, if I got an iPod mounted, how do I access it from the terminal, I mean where do I cd?
[08:59] <un4get> I have Intel pentuim 2.66ghz...
[08:59] <tom_> un4get: 7.04 is the newest release.
[08:59] <PriceChild> un4get: 6.06 is a "long term support" release. It is very stable. 7.04 has much newr things but isn't supported as long
[08:59] <nightfreak> hi, how to install ubuntu on a remote server?
[09:00] <un4get> ok, thank u...
[09:00] <stoft> think I solved it, the following should match any package that starts with "i" but is not "ii" right? dpkg -l| grep -e "^i^[i] "
[09:00] <PriceChild> Swarms: /media/IPOD
[09:00] <aaroncampbell> I'm on Kubuntu Feisty (7.04), and java can't seem to see my print service.  Has anyone else had this problem?  I get "No Print Service Found." when I try to print.  I tried in jedit and Zend Studio.  I also tried using Sun Java 5 from the repos, and the java that comes with Zend Studio
[09:00] <Swarms> Thanks!
[09:00] <PriceChild> Swarms: name may alter depending on what your ipod is called
[09:00] <PriceChild> Swarms: but it will always be in /media
[09:00] <tom_> swarms: it will alter. it mounts using your ipod's name.
[09:00] <dyrne> nightfreak: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[09:01] <jordan> Is there an XDMCP client that can be run while your logged in, so that you can control your local machine and a remote one at the same time
[09:01] <FakeOutdoorsman> Ralphius: did you read this thread? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221299
[09:01] <km> server irc.irc-hispano.org
[09:01] <q-h> Hey, I have a problem, I need to configure the domain on myHey, I have a problem, I need to configure my domain in recovery mode...how do I do this?
[09:01] <Ralphius> no I did not yet
[09:01] <stefg> jordan: what's wrong with vnc?
[09:02] <jordan> stefg: not fast enough
[09:02] <olo> Ubuntu ist the best
[09:02] <Swarms> Ok, its because I am trying to get it to work with Banshee and when I get HAL to listen for ipods it finds nothing so I am guessing its because I screwed around with GTKpod and now there is a mounted ipod even if there isn't any plugged, and I can't delete it since permission denied so trying with sudo
[09:02] <stefg> jordan:you think/know XDMCP is faster?
[09:02] <tom_> q-h: mount your root partition, and edit the hostname file in /etc
[09:02] <jrib> stoft: or you could just do  aptitude search '~n^i!~i'
[09:03] <jordan> stefg: I'm streaming HD video over XDMCP
[09:03] <R3ddy> i no longer see a shutdown button after i installed beryl. any help?
[09:03] <q-h> tom_: thnx :D
[09:03] <Swarms> What is the command for deleting?
[09:03] <tom_> swarms: don't use itunes 7.
[09:03] <tom_> q-h: no problem.
[09:03] <Swarms> Itunes 7?
[09:03] <tom_> swarms: apple messed around with a lot of stuff. you'll find better help in #banshee, talk to snorp.
[09:04] <Swarms> Ahh thanks
[09:04] <tom_> swarms: snorp does the ipod support for banshee, if he's around, he'll help you out.
[09:04] <void^> jordan: there's Xnest and Xephyr (they don't perform as well as using a real X server directly, though)
[09:04] <void^> (^ still better than vnc, probably)
[09:04] <jordan> stefg: Right now I cannot confirm that xdmcp is in fact faster, but from what i've experienced it is, as I can get HD video to stream (along with fullscreen games) at the max capacity of my network (going gigabit soon)
[09:04] <tom_> definitely better than vnc.
[09:05] <stoft> jrib: you sure? returns a nice little list but if I do dpkg -l on one of them dpkg doesn't find it.
[09:05] <Ralphius> Ok I will try to make it work!
[09:05] <Ralphius> thanks!
[09:05] <R3ddy> why are some buttons from the shutdown meny gone after i installed beryl?
[09:05] <nightfreak> what are the main differences between 7.04 and 6.06 of the server edition? ist 7.04 stable enough?
[09:05] <jordan> void^ thank you
[09:05] <concept10> Swarms, try the Exaile music app
[09:05] <lokk> does anyone know if the Toshiba sound problems are fixed?
[09:05] <tom_> jordan: its not just the speed of your network. its very labour intensive.
[09:05] <jrib> stoft: except after seeing your grep, I can guess what you really want and my command isn't it.  you want to grep for '^i[^i] ' not '^i^[i] '.  Yeah I just read you description and assumed you wanted package names taht started with "i" at first
[09:05] <HiddenHax>  /join ##linux
[09:05] <tom_> banshee > exaile.
[09:06] <HiddenHax> hello what if my lspci shows my ethernet controller but ifconfig -a does not show eth0?
[09:06] <void^> jordan: if you have Xnest installed, you can use that terminal server client application to connect to xdmcp hosts. Xephyr is slightly better, though. less buggy at any rate, in my experience.
[09:06] <concept10> tom_, thats your opinion, youre welcome to it
[09:06] <stoft> jrib: thnx!
[09:06] <tom_> hiddenhax: enable restricted drivers, or use ndiswrapper.
[09:06] <tom_> lies bruenig
[09:06] <jordan> tom_ streaming HD and gaming does nothing to my dual core, it is running at about 20% with xdmcp
[09:07] <stoft> jrib: yeah, maybe I was a bit unclear there :)
[09:07] <jordan> void^ thanks
[09:07] <Swarms> I will see what works and judge it by that, Snort doesn't seem online or is #Banshee the wrong channel?
[09:07] <concept10> tom_, youre also welcome to have all of those mono packages on your system
[09:07] <HiddenHax> tom_ ndiswrapper?
[09:07] <tom_> concept10: he's already using banshee, the problem is his ipod was messed around with after using itunes7.
[09:07] <tyler> why are my program windows turning dark? are they freezing up on me?
[09:08] <lomez> Question- IS there anything better than Mplayer plugin for Firefox? It's awful, it can't stream well and I can't watch movie trailers and such
[09:08] <jrib> tyler: do you use beryl or compiz?
[09:08] <FakeOutdoorsman> what are some low memory audio players besides XMMS and BMP?
[09:08] <tom_> concept10: i'm very close with the banshee project, i see it all the time.
[09:08] <tyler> jrib: neither, but i do have the wobbly windows enabled
[09:08] <[zim] _> Hey, is there a way to use a usb drive as a ubuntu live cd? (as in write the live cd to a usb drive instead of a physical CD)?
[09:08] <denis> hi
[09:08] <concept10> tom_, that doesnt mean its better :)
[09:08] <gee> do any of the libsdl-1.2debianXXXX packages have jackd support?
[09:08] <predaeus> FakeOutdoorsman, there is some command line ones, I don't recall the names though
[09:08] <lomez> [zim] _ yes
[09:08] <tom_> concept10: i think he's already made that decision when he started using banshee in the first place.
[09:08] <gee> FakeOutdoorsman, I recommend mpd (music player daemon)
[09:09] <jrib> tyler: then you probably have compiz and windows become grayed out if they are unresponsive
[09:09] <tyler> alright thanks, i'll disable it
[09:09] <lomez> [zim] _ i dont know exactly what/where, ill take a look, but its very possible. you just have to put a boot flag on it and itll be slightly different from a normal iso
[09:09] <concept10> tom_, thats funny.  so youre saying he's closed minded?
[09:09] <FakeOutdoorsman> preaction, gee: thanks
[09:09] <FakeOutdoorsman> predaeus: ...not preaction....
[09:09] <tom_> concept10: i'm saying hes trying to get his ipod to work with banshee.
[09:10] <[zim] _> lomez: alrighty, if you knew a link to a howto or something, that would be awsome. I'm just trying to pull of a live cd, except being able to actually write to the drive
[09:10] <tom_> concept10: and the ipod works well with it most of the time.
[09:10] <predaeus> FakeOutdoorsman, it's ok he/she hates me for that :-)
[09:10] <lomez> [zim] 
[09:10] <lomez> -
[09:10] <lokk> join #n8plan we support free linux for life join and come idle with the latest greatest crew on the nets
[09:10] <Swarms> Tom and Concept shut up ;), I am trying to get it to work, GTKpod failed, Amarok failed, trying Banshee and Exaile now, I am openminded :)
[09:10] <concept10> tom_, I only said "try" exaile.  It works perfect with ipods
[09:10] <lomez> [zim] _ any livecd should be able to mount the internal Hd
[09:10] <stoft> jrib: so do you know, a "rc" result with dpkg -l means that something has been removed but there are still config files left?
[09:10] <jrib> stoft: yes
[09:10] <stoft> jrib: thx
[09:11] <[zim] _> lomez: well, yeah, but i want a portal live cd that i can write to, thus a live cd written to a external usb hdd
[09:11] <tom_> concept10: does it not use HAL to mount it? if the ipod isn't recognized by HAL, then exaile won't work with it either.
[09:11] <concept10> tom_, its all good fun.. I like python apps, especially a music player that I can extend when I want
[09:11] <stefg> [zim] _: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[09:11] <lomez> [zim] _ here is a guide, i think its what youre looking for. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/01/25/usb-x-ubuntu-610
[09:11] <UnluckyMike> anyone have any problem in feisty with keyboard and mouse quits responding?
[09:12] <sgtmattbaker> anyone see this article?! http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/rss/-/1/hi/business/6610901.stm
[09:12] <Swarms> But is there a guide to get HAL finding my ipod?
[09:12] <kuma> hi, im trying to work with the library libxml++, i already installed it ith apt-get, but i still get the error of file not found, can somebody help me pease?
[09:12] <tom_> concept10: you realize banshee is pluggable and also has a boo interface?
[09:12] <FakeOutdoorsman> gee: Gimmix looks nice.  GUI for mpd
[09:13] <[zim] _> stefg, lomez: alrighty, these look good, thanks! :)
[09:13] <gee> I use ncmpc, a ncurses browser :P
[09:13] <DShepher1> concept10: take a look at exaile.. I think its written in python..
[09:13] <concept10> tom_, havent check banshee in a couple of months, when I installed it, I thought it wasnt intuitive.  It should take me 10 mins to figure out how to import songs.  Exaile: Pick directory, bam.
[09:14] <swuboo> With Feisty, I finally have lm-sensors recognizing my i2c stuff, so that sensors produces sensible (mostly) output.
[09:15] <swuboo> But I can't seem to find a good applet for keeping track of my hardware status.
[09:15] <swuboo> Anyone have any suggestions?
[09:15] <sgtmattbaker> Dell is finally putting Ubuntu on Linux PCs
[09:15] <jedi__> hallo ! how can see the kernel-boot-messages? i don't mean dmesg!
[09:15] <RememberPOL> My locale in /etc/environment is set to LANG=en_US.UTF-8 but all apt-get/dpkg results are still in French..any idea what's up?
[09:15] <swuboo> jedi:  Have you tried going into grub, and commenting out "splash" before booting?
[09:15] <bOOtMaKeR> hello! i'm from germany and hope u can help me. i can't print anymore since the upgrade to feisty. i ask for help in #ubuntu-de and #kubuntu-de ... but there's nobody who can help me and i need the print because i must prints documents to get a new work. am using only kubuntu 7.04 and i have no windows
[09:15] <tom_> concept10: i think thats very difficult to believe because a) first run banshee opens a generic file dialogue to select your music directory, and b) because the import function is under the "music" title.
[09:16] <sisseck> quick question, anyone know where and if its possible to download a install disk without having to start a live session. live cd is running painfully slow
[09:16] <UnluckyMike> sisseck: the alternate iso
[09:16] <jedi__> swuboo: yes
[09:16] <Dozzy> indeed , if ur on the download page , there is soem text below
[09:17] <Dave_is_sexy> how come aptitude install g++ does't work?
[09:17] <concept10> tom_, when did they add that dialog?
[09:17] <swuboo> jedi:  Then I have no idea what else to suggest, I'm sorry.
[09:17] <tom_> concept10: over 2 years ago.
[09:17] <yeti> bOOtMaKeR: well, kde/kubuntu has a quite good interface at system settings -> printers. did you check that one?
[09:17] <pricechild> Dave_is_sexy: use "sudo" to prefix it
[09:17] <yeti> jedi__: what messages exactly are you talking about?
[09:17] <pricechild> !sudo > Dave_is_sexy (see pm from ubotu_
[09:18] <sisseck> thanks mike, i
[09:18] <sisseck> i'll give it a try
[09:18] <ForsakenSoul> can someone tell me how to install my mic so i can talk in skype ?
[09:18] <concept10> Nubbie, I will try it, but still, in the end, I prefer working with python, even if Mono is probably faster at runtime
[09:18] <jedi__> swuboo: i just want to edit the file, wich containes the kernel-messages- e.g:  lallaalal    [OK] 
[09:18] <Dave_is_sexy> pricechild: i did it as su
[09:18] <pricechild> Dave_is_sexy: ubuntu doesn't use su
[09:18] <bOOtMaKeR> my problem: i can't print. i removed first via kde the printer and installed a new one. but it doesn't work. i tried to make the same in cups. cups tried to print a testpage. but the status says that: "stopped um novalue"
[09:18] <yeti> jedi__: these are NOT kernel messages
[09:18] <pricechild> Dave_is_sexy: please read the link ubotu sent you
[09:19] <jedi__> jeti: what else?
[09:19] <ForsakenSoul> can someone tell me how to install my mic so i can talk in skype ?
[09:19] <swuboo> jedi:  I don't know how you'd pipe those to a text file, to be honest.
[09:19] <Airforce5555> is there an auto typer for ubuntu?
[09:19] <Nubbie> b00tmaker: did your printer ever work with ubuntu?
[09:19] <ulisse> iis there somebody willing to help me to recompile blender package? This is the output I get:

[09:20] <Nubbie> bOOtMaKeR: did your printer ever function with ubuntu or linux in general in the past?
[09:20] <jedi__> yeti: ok - yes - thank you, but do you know how to get it into a file???
[09:20] <q-h> It doesnt get to the login

[09:20] <swuboo> Does anyone know of a front-end for lm-sensors that will display useful information with a dual-core system?
[09:21] <Swarms> What is the command for deleting in terminal btw?
[09:21] <bOOtMaKeR> yes! it's a hp deskjet 854C
[09:21] <Pici> Swarms: rm
[09:21] <Swarms> Thanks
[09:21] <yeti> jedi__: i'm not quite sure what you're trying to accomplish. do you want another text to show up there, or do you get error messages and therefore make a log of what happens there during boot?
[09:21] <bOOtMaKeR> before the upgrade it's worked very well
[09:21] <Nubbie> ForsakenSoul: unmute it in volume control?
[09:21] <pricechild> Swarms: it displays the temperatures and fan speeds when you type lm-sensors... what more do you want?
[09:21] <bOOtMaKeR> oh my good - my english is so bad :( sorry
[09:21] <ForsakenSoul> Nubbie: i`ll try ...
[09:22] <Swarms> I want nothing Pricechild :)
[09:22] <neverblue> I have 'Unable to setgid to 120' as an error when I run Asterisk, what do I have to do to resolve such a group error ?
[09:22] <swuboo> pricechild:  I think you were aiming that at me.
[09:22] <Nubbie> bOOtMaKeR: have you tried setting it up again? ie. delete the printer, and re-add it?
[09:22] <q-h> When ur Ubuntu wont boot to the login screen, what might be the problem? I only get into "recovery mode". What can I do? Please help O_O
[09:22] <pricechild> swuboo: whoops yes sorry
[09:22] <yeti> bOOtMaKeR: that dmesg log looks strange... why does it unregister the printer right after registering it?
[09:22] <swuboo> pricechild:  What I'd like is a little daemon or applet that just shows a running display of the temps.
[09:22] <jedi__> yeti:  yes - i get error messages and therefore i would have a log of what happens there during boot
[09:23] <Nubbie> q-h: are you messing with video settings?
[09:23] <swuboo> pricechild:  The ones I've found so far don't handle dual core well.
[09:23] <killerbunny> Is it possible to have one lauguage as spell control and one launguage as system?
[09:23] <Nubbie> q-h: if you are, ctrl alt F2, login, run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:23] <yeti> jedi__: i too am looking for a solution for that problem at the moment... if i find anything, i will tell you, okay :) ?
[09:23] <pricechild> swuboo: the fact that its dual core shouldn't make a difference afaik... its just that the sensor drivers aren't working well yet.... i may be wrong
[09:23] <swuboo> pricechild:  Being told that "Temp 3" is -24 Celsius isn't terribly helpful.
[09:23] <void^> swuboo: i just use gkrellm. what's special about dual core regarding sensor readings?
[09:23] <q-h> Nubbie: no, before I rebooted it, I uninstalled Azureus, ehm, and I installed Samba, and another samba thing called smbf or something.
[09:24] <bOOtMaKeR> yeti: that's my question ;)  i have no idea
[09:24] <swuboo> void^:  Nothing so far as I know, but the applets seem to have trouble parsing the output.
[09:24] <pricechild> swuboo: yeah... mine does that to :)
[09:24] <swuboo> void^  I'll look at gkrellm.
[09:24] <bOOtMaKeR> i need to print and it doesn't work - oh i forgett - i can't scan anymore. but the usb mouse, hub, mp3 player and bluetooth-dongel works without any problem
[09:25] <Nubbie> swuboo: have you used tail?
[09:25] <jedi__> yeti: ok - thanks again - but please tell me how to stop the boot-messages - i know there is a way to do it ...
[09:25] <Nubbie> bOOtMaKeR: delete the printer, and set it up again. maybe that will help.
[09:25] <swuboo> Nubbie:  No, I haven't.  I'll take a peek.
[09:26] <bOOtMaKeR> @Nubbie: I've made that about 20 times
[09:26] <q-h> Is there a program to reset the whole OS ? in recovery mode.
[09:26] <wilson_> Is there any reason why the resolution changer doesn't change the resolution?
[09:26] <q-h> or command
[09:26] <Nubbie> !resolution | wilson_
[09:26] <wilson_> It thinks it has.  And does after restart.
[09:26] <ubotu> wilson_: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:27] <yeti> jedi__: stop the boot messages? add "silent" to the kernel line in your /boot/config-blah [that will only supress the output though] 
[09:27] <micktm> Hi to all!!!
[09:27] <micktm> I've got a problem with sopcast... I open sopcast but I can't see any channel in the list!!!!
[09:28] <killerbunny> Is it possible to have one language as spell control and one language as system?
[09:28] <bOOtMaKeR> anyone any idea?
[09:29] <St3D|away> you mean like a dictionary
[09:29] <jedi__> yeti: no - what i mean is how to halt the init messages on the screen ...
[09:29] <Nubbie> killerbunny: as in a different one for the dictionary?
[09:30] <SNIPER> My external hard drive won't work, it does not show up in windows as a drive and in computer managment it shows as unformatted....this drive was fine last night, does this mean its dead and is it possible to fix it?
[09:30] <killerbunny> Nubbie, yes.
[09:30] <yeti> jedi__: Oh okay! some distros support pressing "I" after init has started, allowing a script-by-script bootup. i'm not sure whether this is the case for ubuntu
[09:30] <Nubbie> SNIPER: windows doesn't read anything but FAT and NTFS drives.
[09:30] <killerbunny> E.g. I want an english system (menus and stuff) but danish dictonary.
[09:30] <foomanchew> anyone having an issue with nvidia-glx / beryl / feisty ? I get black screens ?
[09:31] <jedi__> ok yeti - gracias - i will try it ...
[09:31] <SNIPER> Nubbie i am in windows and its a NTFS external USB drive...
[09:31] <foomanchew> its freaking me out...
[09:31] <SNIPER> it was fine last night but when i turned on the computer today its gone...
[09:31] <Nubbie> killerbunny: in applications > accessories > dictionary you can set up a new language in there. i'm not sure but i think it will be used systemwide.
[09:31] <killerbunny> Nice thx
[09:31] <Nubbie> SNIPER: so go to #windows and ask for help?
[09:31] <SNIPER> ok thanks, i was trying the wrong channel, #windows95
[09:32] <Nubbie> SNIPER: if this was somehow related to ubuntu, even remotely i'd help you out.
[09:32] <lokk> all /join #n8plan and idle thanks :]

[09:35] <fiXXXerMet> Trying to play music from my ampache install - I download a .m3u playlist, when contains the files what are online.  What can I use to play these?  rhythmbox won't do it
[09:35] <pricechild> dudanogueira: i don't completely understand the other language... i think "sudo apt-get -f install" might help...
[09:35] <dudanogueira> pricechild, dammit, its all in pt-br.. :( im trying to remove this .deb that is a gramatical corrector for openoffice
[09:35] <dudanogueira> pricechild, already tried it :(
[09:35] <Nubbie> dudanogueira: really?
[09:36] <pricechild> dudanogueira: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[09:36] <swuboo> Bah, gkrellm won't display the temps on my processor cores.
[09:36] <damionhunt111> can anyone help with a grub problem ?
[09:36] <ikonia> damionhunt111, ask
[09:36] <Swarms> Another quick question, I got a removable disc, but its readonly, what is the easiest way to make me able to copy to it?
[09:36] <ikonia> Swarms, mount it read write
[09:36] <bOOtMaKeR> @ubotu - i know. i'm in there - but there's no one who can help me
[09:36] <lomez> forzaaaaa milan
[09:36] <damionhunt111> thank you, i cant seem to be able to figure out how to get my dual boot to work.
[09:37] <damionhunt111> i installed windows xp onto a sata disk
[09:37] <ikonia> damionhunt111, what part is not clear
[09:37] <pricechild> bOOtMaKeR: ubotu is a bot
[09:37] <dudanogueira> pricechild, Nubbie running the dpkg-reconfigure -a....
[09:37] <damionhunt111> then ubuntu onto an ide pata disk
[09:37] <void^> swuboo: really? i can make it show everything lm-sensors sees (which is equal to what mbm on windows shows)
[09:37] <neverblue> void^, the asterisk app has root:root set, with r-x for both group and user
[09:37] <swuboo> Yeah, no dice.
[09:37] <bOOtMaKeR> oh ok :)
[09:37] <DBO> damionhunt111, did you set the ide pata disk as your boot disk?
[09:37] <Swarms> How to do that Ikonia?
[09:37] <Nubbie> swuboo: have you tried lm-sensors?
[09:38] <neverblue> so should i be changing the owner of the app?
[09:38] <ikonia> Swarms, man mount
[09:38] <swuboo> void^:  I can get it to display temps 1 through 3, but not Core0 or Core1.
[09:38] <swuboo> Nubbie:  Yes, lm-sensors is fully set up, I'm just looking for a front-end to view the data with, rather than having to use the teminal.
[09:38] <nox-Hand> Anyone know of a graphical keyboard/keymap editor?
[09:38] <nox-Hand> I need one :|
[09:38] <void^> swuboo: ah. i don't get separate readings for the cores anyway.
[09:38] <damionhunt111> in my bios yes, when i boot up it finds ubuntu fine but i need to know what entry to put in the grub
[09:38] <Nubbie> swuboo: there are gnome-panel applets.
[09:38] <damionhunt111> now ive lost ntldr if i disable the pata (ubuntu) and cant load windows
[09:38] <void^> neverblue: i was thinking of the permissions you run it with
[09:39] <swuboo> void^:  I do, and I can't see either, so GKrellM is not displaying /any/ CPU temp info, just the mobo and the GPU.
[09:39] <DBO> damionhunt111, let me see your /boot/grub/menu.lst in pastebin please
[09:39] <swuboo> Nubbie:  Yes, but none of the ones in synaptic seem able to deal with AMD X2's.
[09:39] <damionhunt111> ive used grub before and got it to work but that was on the same disk
[09:39] <damionhunt111> im sorry , where is pastebin ?
[09:39] <neverblue> void^, sorry?
[09:39] <Nubbie> !paste | damionhunt111
[09:39] <ubotu> damionhunt111: 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)
[09:40] <nox-Hand> How might I map my keyboard so (for example) key 0xa2 runs command 'mpc pause'?
[09:40] <slowfast> After upgrading to Feisty gnome window manager does not work.  I can boot into KDE.  When I log out of KDE and sign into gnome, the desktop appears but the windows do not have title bars.  When I select the showdesk top button, an error dialog states: "Your window manager does not support the show desktop button, or you are not running a windows manager."  I have uninstalled and reinstalled ubuntu-desktop. Any idea for a fix?
[09:41] <DBO> damionhunt111, www.pastebin.com
[09:41] <swuboo> void^:  I think I know why, too.  Gkrellm is seeing the output from the it87 chip, but not the other PCI i2c device.  So, it looks like I'll just have to use the sensors command in a terminal.
[09:41] <void^> neverblue: well, i have no idea what sort of command you're running that produces this output. perhaps you should be running it with root privileges?
[09:41] <damionhunt111> ok, ive done that i think
[09:42] <dudanogueira> Nubbie, pricechild nothing... :( arghh, its seems to be an office extension...

[09:44] <adaptr> damionhunt111 if you swap the drives then windows is on hd0 again, okay
[09:44] <adaptr> damionhunt111 windows WILL NOT boot unless it is on the first drive
[09:45] <damionhunt111> adaptr ... erm ? im an absolute newbie im afraid
[09:45] <rkennke> is there something special about gdb in ubuntu, when there's no debug information? seems like in this case, a bt is completely screwed
[09:45] <Nubbie> adaptr: problems with grub?
[09:45] <damionhunt111> adaptr ah right

[09:45] <Degger> If your on Linux and get a Windows virus will it affect your computer?
[09:46] <damionhunt111> nubbie i think i might have
[09:46] <Swarms> To continue, if I want to make a mount rw the command would be mount -o remount rw?
[09:46] <Nubbie> damionhunt111: you can use the livecd to fix it.
[09:46] <pricechild> Degger: windows viruses don't work on linux
[09:46] <Degger> So if I get a keylogger or something it won't affect me at all?
[09:46] <Pelo> Degger,  you wonT' get infected but you might pass it along if in a email or something
[09:46] <DBO> damionhunt111, join #DBO for a bit of spam please
[09:46] <Nubbie> degger: pelo speaks truth.
[09:46] <DBO> dont feel like using pastebin
[09:47] <Degger> Ok thanks
[09:47] <Nubbie> degger: and you don't need to worry about windows keyloggers, since linux is very different from windows.
[09:48] <variant> pianoboy3333: note what i said in offtopic
[09:48] <Pelo> Degger,  google  linux virus if you want more infore there were a few interesting articles last time I checked
[09:48] <Degger> Thanks. But I have an Crossover Emulator.. So would it not effect it even then?
[09:49] <hendrixski> does it matter where I put my chroot?
[09:49] <Nubbie> are you allowed to talk about on topic ubuntu issues in #ubuntu-offtopic, or would that be offtopic for #ubuntu-offtopic? lol.
[09:49] <Pelo> Degger, there was also an article about windows virus on wine,  most didn' make the cut
[09:49] <hendrixski> like... if I did my partition so that I only have 4 gigs for the base install, but everything else for /home,  is it OK if I put chroot in /home/me/chroot instead of /var/chroot?
[09:49] <pricechild> Nubbie: this channel is support only. -offtopic for everything else :)
[09:49] <bardyr> hey

[09:49] <RememberPOL> Hmm
[09:49] <Pelo> Nubbie,  the point of ubuntu-offtopic is to keep this channel for support issues
[09:50] <jedi__> binladen=andrea?
[09:50] <Degger> Ok well thanks. I'm off to the store
[09:50] <Nubbie> magnetron: i was trying to clarify the rules of #ubuntu-offtopic :l
[09:50] <rkennke>  is there something special about gdb in ubuntu, when there's no debug information? seems like in this case, a bt is completely screwed
[09:50] <RememberPOL> I just did a dist-upgrade and /etc/issues still says Ubuntu 6.10 but lsb_release -a says 7.04
[09:50] <bardyr> i've just bought a nice FSC XI 1526 laptop and wifi isen't working
[09:50] <Pelo> rkennke,  try checking the forum for answers

[09:50] <Nubbie> RememberPOL: did you upgrade the recommended way (with update-manager) ??
[09:51] <Pelo> !wifi > bardyr  check your mp windows for instrucons and check the forum for you lappy model
[09:51] <Nubbie> magnetron: understood :)
[09:51] <hendrixski> :-( does chroot have to be in /var/chroot or can I put it elsewhere?  the documentation doesn't say, it just gives an example of putting it in /var/chroot
[09:51] <bardyr> i found a windows driver and ndiswrapper seems to find it "sis163u : driver installed       device (0BF8:100F) present"00000
[09:51] <bardyr> how can i make ndiswrapper work??
[09:51] <Nubbie> hendrixski: i believe you can make a chroot anywhere you feel like.
[09:51] <BayouBilly> why is my wifi card coming up as rausb0?
[09:51] <_root____> hey everyone
[09:51] <Nubbie> bardyr: why not just tell us how ndiswrapper ISN'T working for you.
[09:51] <_root____> sup
[09:51] <pricechild> BayouBilly: because it is a usb wireless card with a ralink chipset?
[09:52] <bardyr> Nubbie, sorry
[09:52] <Nubbie> bardyr: no problem, just makes it easier for people to help you.
[09:52] <walkintome>  ive been having some problems with my ubuntu box freezing. While running a screensaves it froze, when coming back from hibernate it froze, and when launching some applications, it freezes. I'm running a clean installation (from yesterday). Does anyone know what could be causing my problems?
[09:52] <Nubbie> walkintome: video drivers
[09:52] <hendrixski> Nubbie, so the system won't specifically look in /var for chroots, it'll look at wherever I point it?
[09:53] <bardyr> Nubbie, sorry :)
[09:53] <RememberPOL> My /etc/environment says LANG="en.US.UTF-8" but running `locale` returns LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8... how can I change this?
[09:53] <walkintome> Nubbie: how do i make sure that my drivers WONT do that lol
[09:53] <Nubbie> walkintome: what graphics chipset do you have?
[09:53] <BayouBilly> hey pricechild how do i see if it working?
[09:53] <Pelo> walkintome, I would start looking at autostart progs you may have running,   and fyi   hivernate/suspend in linux is not great
[09:53] <walkintome> Nubbie: nvidia 7800gtx
[09:53] <pricechild> BayouBilly: see what?
[09:54] <oopsibrokeit> hay everyone, i deleted my USP and now everything is brokee. is there a way i can get the ubuntu system panel back?
[09:54] <klotho> Hello. I am trying to upgrade to 7.04 using the update tool, and it keeps telling me that authentication failed. How can I fix this?
[09:54] <Neil-> In syslog i get notices telling me no wireless networks found / stored, etc. I dont even have a wireless adaptor - how to remove this thing from running?
[09:54] <Neil-> Anyone?
[09:54] <Nubbie> hendrixski: if you run the program /var/chroot/usr/bin/program, the program will look for it's libraries in /var/chroot/lib i believe, so i don't think it matters where you put your chroot.
[09:54] <walkintome> Pelo: nothing except network, search, and a few necessary programs
[09:55] <Pelo> walkintome,  you have beagle installed ?  those indexing search apps are very demanding
[09:55] <oopsibrokeit> so
[09:55] <oopsibrokeit> does anyone know how to restored the top panel?
[09:55] <oopsibrokeit> restore*
[09:55] <oopsibrokeit> i deleted it on accident
[09:55] <klotho>  I am trying to upgrade to 7.04 using the update tool, and it keeps telling me that authentication failed. How can I fix this?
[09:55] <Nubbie> oppsibrokeit: add a new one from the bottom panel
[09:56] <Pelo> oopsibrokeit, do you still have a bottom one ?   rigght click ,  create new pannel
[09:56] <oopsibrokeit> Nubbie: it was the ubuntu system panel
[09:56] <walkintome> Pelo: yes i have beagle, but i dont realyl use it. Its probably in my best interest to uninstall it huh. Ijust want my linux install to be stable
[09:56] <hendrixski> Nubbie, Ok... because I don't have room in / but I have plenty of room in /home.... so I can install chroot to /home/me/chroot and it'll look for the libraries in /home/me/chroot/lib or whatnot
[09:56] <hendrixski> thanks again
[09:56] <oopsibrokeit> how do you recover the system panel?
[09:56] <Nubbie> oopsibrokeit: rightclick the panel > add to panel > USP applet
[09:56] <bobesponja> hey
[09:56] <bobesponja> when I try to mount a media from media:/ in konqueror I get "hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000"
[09:56] <Nubbie> hendrixski: i'm no expert on chroots, but i believe thats how it works
[09:57] <bobesponja> is there something I need to chmod -s ?
[09:57] <Pelo> walkintome, just a suggestion,  also gdesklets has the annoying habit of going nuts after 12+ hrs, it's not a bad idea to kill and restart it,  or kill it at night
[09:57] <Nubbie> hendrixski: then you'll want to simlink to your chrooted programs into /usr/bin so they can be easily run.
[09:57] <ruiwen> hello does anyone know how to get a laptop's mic working in feisty?
[09:57] <klotho> No one has any hints?  I am trying to upgrade to 7.04 using the update tool, and it keeps telling me that authentication failed. How can I fix this?
[09:57] <jedi__> what does the boot-message "apm: BIOS not found." mean ?
[09:57] <BayouBilly> can ubuntu connect with wpa?
[09:58] <Pelo> klotho,  there is a fix for that in the forum
[09:58] <Nubbie> klotho: are you using 3rd party repositories?
[09:58] <hendrixski> Nubbie, ah... ok.  Will do.
[09:58] <klotho> pelo, what forum?
[09:58] <Hadron> any idea where my f12 key is being defined to be desktop search in gnome? Its not in system/prefs/kdb shortcuts.
[09:58] <Nubbie> klotho: the ubuntu forum.

[09:59] <ubotu> stifler: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:59] <ruiwen> hi does anyone know how to get the mic working in ubuntu feisty?
[09:59] <BayouBilly> my card supports it in XP, but in ubuntu its only saying WEP, any ideas?
[09:59] <Nubbie> ruiwen: is it muted in Volume Control?
[10:00] <Alena> i have little problem
[10:00] <FakeOutdoorsman> !wpa | BayouBilly
[10:00] <BayouBilly> its a usb dlink dwl-g122
[10:00] <ubotu> BayouBilly: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:00] <UnluckyMike> BayouBilly: are you using a rt61 card?
[10:00] <ruiwen> nope.. i've tried unmuting all the controls
[10:00] <BayouBilly> !wpa
[10:00] <klotho> Nubbie: thanks. it was set to "server for United States"
[10:00] <walkintome> Pelo: thanks for the heads up. Do you know how to improve the font smoothing in ubuntu. I have all the settings in fonts on the best quality, yet my fonts look childish, like hand written because they are rendinging strangely
[10:00] <Pelo> ruiwen,  by default I think mics are muted,    dbl click the sound icon in the top pannel
[10:00] <Nubbie> klotho: no look in 3rd party tab
[10:00] <BayouBilly> what does rt61 mean?
[10:00] <ruiwen> pelo: i've tried unmuting all the sound channels, both graphically and though alsamixer

[10:01] <FakeOutdoorsman> BayouBilly: more specifically https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[10:01] <stifler> i have some 32bit programs installed on my x64 ubuntu, when i start those programs(example: skype) it starts with an ugly theme!!!!what can i do?
[10:01] <Pelo> ruiwen,  search fhe forum for your model,  maybe you'll get an answer there
[10:01] <yeti> !azureus
[10:01] <ubotu> azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AzureusHowTo
[10:01] <stifler> oh..and sorry for my english
[10:01] <klotho> authentication has 2 keys, ubuntu archive automatic signing key and ubuntu cd image automatic signing key
[10:01] <UnluckyMike> BayouBilly: run 'lspci | grep Network' to see if its a rt61
[10:01] <yeti> !azureus > callidusfox
[10:01] <Nubbie> stifler: copy ~./themes to /.themes
[10:02] <stifler> ?
[10:02] <Nubbie> stifler: sudo cp -R ~/.themes /.themes << do that
[10:02] <Pelo> walkintome,  sorry I thought I had a link,  did you change the defaults fonts ?
[10:02] <stifler> it's a library problem, not a theme problem.Themes directory is in /home/<user>
[10:02] <ruiwen> pelo: nothing in the forums though
[10:02] <walkintome> pelo..i installed the mac fonts...thats all
[10:02] <Nubbie> stifler: if you say so.
[10:02] <stifler> it's not the problem starting ROOT applications
[10:03] <UnluckyMike> BayouBilly: did you run the command?
[10:03] <FakeOutdoorsman> stifler: try starting your program in a terminal and look at the messages in the terminal
[10:03] <alteroo> I want to remaster the live cd.. is there a program that will help me to do this? A guide would be useful also
[10:03] <Pelo> ruiwen, stick around and ask periocidaly ( 30 min)   maybe someone else knows
[10:03] <Nubbie> stifler: it might also be because skype doesn't use GTK if i recall correctly.
[10:03] <callidusfox> yeti cool
[10:03] <Pelo> walkintome,  check theforum then
[10:03] <rr72> can i net install from a floppy?
[10:03] <stifler> i saw some screenshots of skype, it has a nice skin,not an ugly one like mine
[10:03] <RememberPOL> What's the command-line to launch the main add/remove software package manager?
[10:04] <stifler> some screenshots on ubuntu 32bit
[10:04] <cables> RememberPOL, gnome-app-install
[10:04] <bruenig> RememberPOL, gksu gnome-app-install
[10:04] <RememberPOL> tyty
[10:04] <Nubbie> rr72: i don't think ubuntu supports this, but if you have a server you can install off, try some other netbooting floppy bootdisk.
[10:04] <cables> bruenig, no gksu needed
[10:04] <cables> RememberPOL, you don't need the gksu
[10:04] <bruenig> cables, oh
[10:04] <RememberPOL> k
[10:04] <cables> bruenig, it asks for the pw when you actually try to install something
[10:04] <klotho> I'm not finding anything about the authentication issue on the forum...
[10:04] <bruenig> the firs thing I do after install generally is sudo apt-get remove synaptic gnome-app-install
[10:04] <rr72> Nubbie~ any pointers on  where to look and how to set one up?
[10:05] <Nubbie> stifler: sudo cp -R ~/.themes /.themes << can you please do this?
[10:05] <stifler> the same problem comes with nerolinux.Skype in terminal gives no error, but nero gives Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib32/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libpixmap.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
[10:05] <cables> RememberPOL, if you only have a command prompt, there are commands that can manage packages for you

[10:05] <RememberPOL> cables: It's an ssh -X connection
[10:05] <cables> bruenig, aren't you so 1337.
[10:05] <cables> RememberPOL, if you want a more advanced package manager, type synaptic
[10:05] <bruenig> I just meant to justify why I didn't know gksu or not
[10:05] <cables> ok :)
[10:05] <klotho> any idea where to look on the forums for how to fix the authentication problem?
[10:05] <RememberPOL> ty
[10:06] <stifler> sudo cp -R ~/.themes /.themes <- no luck
[10:06] <Nubbie> klotho: are you using a 3rd party repository?
[10:06] <asherZ> hey all i messed up my xorg.conf and when i login to ubuntu i get error but it lets me log into terminal. how to i reset xorg.conf?
[10:06] <klotho> Nubbie: no
[10:06] <albert> hi, am i able to "shutdown -h now" without being root?
[10:06] <cables> stifler, are you trying to make themes work in root apps?
[10:06] <Nubbie> klotho: go over to the authentication tab, do you have 2 keys installed?
[10:06] <Nubbie> klotho: both for ubuntu?
[10:06] <klotho> authentication has 2 keys, ubuntu archive automatic signing key and ubuntu cd image automatic signing key
[10:06] <rr72> asherZ~ sudo dpgk-recongure <pck of server>
[10:07] <rr72> *reconfigure
[10:07] <FakeOutdoorsman> albert: you need to be root
[10:07] <preaction> albert: no. unless you sudo. why would you want to allow that?
[10:07] <stifler> no, i'm trying to make themes work in 32bit application(i amo 64bit)
[10:07] <Nubbie> klotho: and you're positive you have no 3rd party repository... ie beryl or something.
[10:07] <asherZ> rr72: what is pck of server?
[10:07] <klotho> Nubbie:  nope
[10:07] <ubuntu_> FFHG
[10:07] <albert> well, i'm running fluxbox and i got a "gksudo shutdown -h now" menu entry
[10:07] <klotho> Nubbie: 3rd party tab's blank
[10:07] <stifler> cables : are you 64bit?
[10:07] <albert> and the prompt gets on my nervs...quite simply ;)
[10:07] <cables> stifler, no. What are you trying to do with themes?
[10:08] <Nubbie> klotho: search the forums for "authentication error"
[10:08] <bruenig> albert, add an exception in /etc/sudoers
[10:08] <Nubbie> cables: skype looks ugly for stifler.
[10:08] <rr72> asherZ~ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg
[10:08] <cables> stifler, i know how to fix that
[10:08] <Nubbie> stifler: do programs run with sudo look ugly as well?
[10:08] <stifler> when i start a 32bit app(skype or nerolinux) it start with a ugly skin . not the one that 64bit uses
[10:08] <cables> stifler, you need some kde stuff to get skype to look nice
[10:08] <asherZ> rr72: ah thought so :) thanks ill try it now
[10:08] <stifler> no root apps are perfect
[10:09] <cables> stifler, skype uses qt, without some qt libraries, it'll look ugly
[10:09] <klotho> Nubbie: that's not finding it!
[10:09] <Nubbie> stifler: skype and nerolinux are both windows applications ported to linux
[10:09] <alteroo> I want to remaster the live cd.. is there a program that will help me to do this? A guide would be useful also
[10:09] <cables> stifler, I'm not sure which to install though, let me look into it
[10:09] <cables> Nubbie, not true
[10:09] <albert> bruening: could you explain this further? the file gives me no clue
[10:09] <cables> Nubbie, skype is native code
[10:09] <stifler> thanks cables and Nubbie for interest :)
[10:09] <cables> Nubbie, the problem is that Skype is a QT app, and Gnome is GTK, so you need to install some qt theme stuff to get it to work
[10:09] <Nubbie> cables: doesn't it run in a kinda wine shell ala the google apps?
[10:10] <cables> Nubbie, no
[10:10] <cables> Nubbie, and neither does Nero
[10:10] <klotho> oh well, I think I won't upgrade yet... there seem to be some graphics problems with the T23 drivers
[10:10] <Nubbie> cables: ohh its QT. k that makes sense.
[10:10] <cables> Nubbie, and only one google app does
[10:10] <hendrixski> cables, Skype won't be open source will it?
[10:10] <asherZ> rr72~ hopefully ill be in ubunt in a sec :D
[10:10] <cables> hendrixski, most likely not
[10:10] <cables> Give me some space though! i need to find a package name for stifler :)
[10:10] <peterka> Nubbie install qt3-qtconfig
[10:10] <stifler> i was thinking: once i intall this qt, i have to copy /usr/lib to /usr/lib32 am i rith?
[10:10] <jrcdude> Can someone please help me on how to use my wireless internet adapter in Ubuntu?
[10:10] <hendrixski> cables, oh man... I read that they have 150 developers.... if Qt is $15,000 per seat for the proprietary license... imagine how much that costs
[10:10] <cables> peterka, there you go... i was looking for that :)
[10:10] <peterka> nad polyester style
[10:11] <DBO> jrcdude, what adapter is it exactly?
[10:11] <cables> hendrixski, they're owned by eBay.
[10:11] <stifler> so i go for qt3-qtconfig cables?
[10:11] <Nubbie> hendrixski: it has hidden functions to make it wiretappable just as any regular phoneline. all legal, but it must still be hidden.
[10:11] <cables> stifler, i doubt you'll have to do anything
[10:11] <klotho> Nubbie: another question! Do you know how to get ubuntu to recognize a new device, like a wireless PC card?
[10:11] <jrcdude> It is a Dell Wireless 1450 Wireless USB Adapter (says on back)
[10:11] <cables> stifler, yeah
[10:11] <stifler> ok i'll give a try
[10:11] <DBO> klotho, it should pick it up when the computer boots
[10:11] <Nubbie> klotho: type lspci, see if it's listed
[10:11] <hendrixski> cables, oh ... that's .. scary
[10:11] <Un4GeT> hey...
[10:11] <ziggy23> How do I set up GRUB so that I have more tiime than 10 seconds to select a menu item.
[10:12] <DBO> jrcdude, please remember to say my name when talking to me, otherwise I miss what you say =)
[10:12] <cables> ziggy23, hit alt-f2 and type gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lsct
[10:12] <cables> ziggy23, i misspelled that
[10:12] <cables> ziggy23, it should be menu.lst
[10:12] <psusi> ziggy23: edit the timeout specified in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:12] <jrcdude> DBO, sorry dont use irc often
[10:12] <stifler> cables, no...that didn't do it
[10:12] <cables> stifler, you'll have to restart skype
[10:12] <Un4GeT> OKay, so I just runned ubuntu from the CD, but there's no way to install ubuntu without deleting the old partetition....
[10:12] <fiXXXerMet> beep-media-player won't launch unless I do so with sudo - why would this happen?
[10:12] <Nubbie> ziggy23: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list i believe, and you can edit the timeout there.
[10:12] <hendrixski> cabldes, I ihaven't been able to find a good open source alternative for it, though I searched for a whlie (even made a post on the forums about it)
[10:12] <klotho> Nubbie: lspci doesn't seem to find it
[10:12] <cables> Nubbie, I've got him.
[10:12] <ziggy23> thanks I will try it
[10:12] <cables> ziggy23, that's not gonna fix it
[10:13] <Nubbie> cables: i was blindly typing sorry.
[10:13] <stifler> i did it, cables same ugly skin. i think i have to copy to /usr/lib32
[10:13] <DBO> jrcdude, perfectly ok, please do "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper"
[10:13] <kostandinos> Enkalisperater text here...
[10:13] <DBO> jrcdude, do you have the CD that has the windows drivers?
[10:13] <stifler> if i install with apt-get it installs in /usr/lib
[10:13] <cables> ziggy23, when you're done with that, tell me, and I'll continue with the instructions
[10:13] <hendrixski> cables, you don't happen to know of any open source programs that do the same thing (p2ptv) do you?
[10:13] <kostandinos> KAL0130SPERA
[10:13] <stifler> skype uses /usr/lib32
[10:13] <jrcdude> DBO, yes I do, but how will I be able to install it without internet?
[10:13] <cables> hendrixski, like joost?
[10:13] <cables> hendrixski, no...

[10:14] <Un4GeT> yea

[10:14] <tirkal> how do I disable the sleep button on Feisty?
[10:14] <andreas_> Un4GeT: You can repartition and dual boot, but please make a backup of all important stuff first to CD. There is always the risk that repartitioning or installing fails and you loose the windows partition.
[10:15] <Nubbie> un4get: defrag your windows partition, and when installing ubuntu, don'ot accept the default partitioning scheme, do it manually. resize the windows one to leave space BEHIND it. then create a new partition in the new space, one for / , one for swap, and maybe one for /home as well.

I am running Ubuntu 7.04 so according to the page below the rt2500 driver should already be installed. (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT2500) Yet when I use the System->Administration->Network tool to setup a wireless connection I can't get the wireless connection to work
[10:19] <stp2007c> . Any thoughts?
[10:20] <andreas_> weswh:     Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0 , is what I have. Check with your backup of xorg.conf if that whole section is ok. Could be an error on a previous line, or the section isn't okay.
[10:20] <alteroo> anyone know where i can get the deb for reconstructor
[10:20] <alteroo> ?
[10:20] <angel> hello
[10:20] <wannatryit> lostpatrol: thanks.  is there anyone who can help out with a prob creating a ubuntu partition?
[10:20] <axbard> Hey can any one tell or link me what display driver WHO Works best with my ati radeon 9800pro
[10:20] <thelostpatrol> these people
[10:20] <thelostpatrol> but what's the problem?
[10:21] <vampir> #balkan
[10:21] <Dobzilla> Err, back for more help... Is it possible to install Ubuntu on a 2gb USB flash disc?
[10:21] <roler2> how do I clear/erase the keyring manager password in Feisty?
[10:21] <angel> adios!!
[10:21] <wannatryit> i boot from the livecd, tell it to resize my windows partition, and it fails-- says it can't write the info to the disk
[10:21] <SpudDogg> I've just installed Feisty and cannot seem to be able to play DVDs anymore.  I have installed every package that I found in any readme, but I still get an error in Totem, "The source seems encrypted, and can't be read. Are you trying to play an encrypted DVD without libdvdcss?"
[10:21] <thelostpatrol> in windows you can resize partitions using partition magic, i believe
[10:22] <thelostpatrol> that's how i did it
[10:22] <andreas_> wannatryit: Make sure you unmount all drives before you do the partitioning. gparted and ubuntus auto-mounting doesn't play well together it seems.
[10:22] <thelostpatrol> i'm not one of the official advice givers here but i did it like that
[10:22] <stefg> !libdvdcss | SpudDogg
[10:22] <ubotu> SpudDogg: 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
[10:22] <wannatryit> so should i reduce my windows partition first within windows, then have ubuntu just take the slack space?
[10:22] <rr72> @reverse racecar
[10:22] <ubotu> racecar
[10:22] <thelostpatrol> is there a way to make windows the default startup OS in the boot loader?
[10:23] <rr72> thelostpatrol~ set under default in menu.lst the number windows it
[10:23] <magnetron> wannatryit: you can have the Ubuntu installer resizing the Windows partition too... i find that easier
[10:23] <andreas_> wannatryit: Buy a separate HD for linux :) Or try out ubuntu from the livecd. From my experience, keeping two OS on the same drive isn't a good long term solution. People will disagree but thats my opinion.
[10:23] <ziggy23> cabkes: thx, worked like a charm! :-)
[10:23] <wannatryit> magnetron: yes, but the ubuntu installer fails when it tries to resize my partition
[10:23] <erUSUL> thelostpatrol: 2 ways cnage the line that looks like 'default 0' instead of 0 put the number of entries till the windows one (index 0), move the windows entry to be the first one in the file... all editing /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:24] <UberPsyX> hi, im getting some new RAM and dont know what the difference is between DDR 2100 and DDR 3200? anyone know what that is?
[10:24] <wannatryit> andreas_: thanks-- i'm looking for a 'medium-length' solution, though.  and my laptop won't take another hdd, me thinks!  :)
[10:24] <stefg> UberPsyX: #hardware
[10:24] <SlimeyPete> UberPsyX: this isn't really the right place to ask, but 3200 is faster. Plus, if you put 2100 into aPC that's expecting 3200 it might melt.
[10:24] <andreas_> wannatryit: Just make sure you backup your windows stuff before you go about repartitioning. :)
[10:24] <magnetron> it does? are you accessing it when you are resixing it? then you have to unmount it ("eject it")
[10:24] <UberPsyX> ok thanks
[10:24] <SlimeyPete> UberPsyX: and... yeah, #hardware
[10:25] <UberPsyX> im new to IRC so :P
[10:25] <wannatryit> magnetron: oooh, maybe that's the problem; i'll try unmounting.....
[10:25] <ziggy23> I am having a problem printing Firefox pages -- the header info gets cut off.
[10:25] <vincenz> How do you tell your ubuntu version and your terminal?
[10:25] <rr72> Nubbie~ do you know how to or no? the floppy net install
[10:26] <wannatryit> magnetron-- nope, that wasn't the prob after all.  none of the partitions on the hdd are mounted
[10:26] <wannatryit> rats
[10:26] <ziggy23> header and footer info -- is this an Ubuntu issue?
[10:26] <Nubbie> rr72: no, i don't even know if it's possible. i was suggesting you look into it. ubuntu does not support net installs, that i CAN say with certainty.
[10:26] <UberPsyX> SlimeyPete, you said if i put 2100 in a pc that needs 3200 itll melt, does that happen the other way as well?
[10:26] <trumpeter2003> ziggy23: No
[10:26] <stefg> UberPsyX: http://www.pthree.org/2007/05/01/advice-for-irc-newbies/
[10:27] <magnetron> wannatryit: hmm... what filesystem is it? NTFS?
[10:27] <rr72> Nubbie~ u can?
[10:27] <UberPsyX> >_<
[10:27] <trumpeter2003> ziggy23: Not for the problem with it being in Firefox
[10:27] <UberPsyX> lol
[10:27] <wannatryit> magnetron: yeah, ntfs
[10:27] <orbin> vincenz: cat /etc/issue or lsb_release -a
[10:27] <rr72> Nubbie~ use a minimal cd, it dls all the packs
[10:27] <magnetron> wannatryit: How many partitions do you have?
[10:27] <Nubbie> rr72: where is this ubuntu minimal cd?
[10:28] <rr72> Nubbie~ http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso
[10:28] <Nubbie> rr72: there's an alternate cd, well would you look at that.
[10:28] <wannatryit> magnetron- just one main partition as far as i know.  i think there is also a hidden 'system restore' partition put there by dell (i'm on a latitude notebook)
[10:28] <Nubbie> all hidden away in there.
[10:28] <sharperguy> where can i find a list of cards supported by nvidia-glx/nvidia-glx-legacy?
[10:28] <Nubbie> rr72: go for it, i didn't even know that existed.
[10:29] <rr72> Nubbie~ if that will work
[10:29] <foomanchew> sharperguy, are u having nvidia issues
[10:29] <rr72> the dvd drive doesnt like cds as it likes dvds
[10:29] <nbogdanoff> any other GUI IM clients besides Gaim and Kopete worth checking out?!??
[10:29] <ziggy23> I had probs installing the printer drivers this morning...my model is a HP CP1160 there is not a exact match for my model.  Wonder if that contribues to the problem with my headersd
[10:29] <sharperguy> foomanchew, no, i have a mate with a rare card and I want to know if its suported
[10:29] <magnetron> wannatryit: I don't know anything about Dell's partitioning schemes... Go with that advice about resizing it from a win bootdisk.
[10:29] <SlimeyPete> UberPsyX: no, it won't happen the other way - the 3200 stuff will just run at 2100 speed, however you might not be able to fit it in the slot (more modern ram uses more pins, I'm not sure how many 3200 uses)... but that's the last thing I'll say on the subject lest I get kicked for being off-topic :)
[10:30] <wannatryit> magnetron-- okay; i'll try that.  thanks for your help
[10:30] <wannatryit> /exit
[10:30] <UberPsyX> lol ok sorry
[10:30] <ziggy23> i was told to load to load the hpijs drivers
[10:30] <thelostpatrol> is there a way to make windows the default startup OS in the boot loader?
[10:30] <Emilio_M> hi, can i get help here or should i try a different room?
[10:31] <cyros> thelostpatrol: edit ur menu.lst in ur grub loader
[10:31] <cyros> thats if ur using grub of course
[10:31] <thelostpatrol> cyros, i tried but it wouldn't save
[10:31] <thelostpatrol> any tips?
[10:31] <rr72> Nubbie~ found something cooler to do
[10:31] <orbin> !ask | Emilio_M
[10:31] <ubotu> Emilio_M: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:31] <Emilio_M> lol. thanks ubotu
[10:31] <cyros> opening with root ?
[10:31] <thomas576> if you edit menu.list in /etc/grub/ you can put it first on the list so it will load after timer times out
[10:31] <rr72> netboot
[10:31] <Nubbie> ubotu = a robot.
[10:31] <Emilio_M> i'm having trouble getting my laptop touchpad tow rok
[10:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about a robot. - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:31] <orbin> ... except if it's offtopic, like UberPsyX's. :)
[10:32] <Emilio_M> it's a synaptics touchpad
[10:32] <cyros> sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list
[10:32] <andreas_> thelostpartol: System files are protected so only root can write to them. You need to sudo/gksudo.

[10:32] <tholme> Hey, Im trying to configure the xserver-xorg. But everytime I get to the part where Im to choose how much bits the graphics are supposed to be, it ends with an error...It says something about a backupfile or something. Anyone know anything about this?
[10:32] <thelostpatrol> thanks, i'll try that now
[10:32] <qsloqs> thelostpatrol   grub-install /dev/hda or what you have... after modify menu.lst
[10:33] <thelostpatrol> sqloqs, why
[10:33] <thelostpatrol> what does that do
[10:33] <cyros> no problem be careful in that file
[10:33] <taso_> http://pastebin.ca/467958  ... does anyone know why this could be happening to me , it says it cannot find libc6.so ... anyone ?
[10:33] <thomas576> qsloqs if he just edits file and reboots it will be ok less he removes or adds new devs
[10:33] <qsloqs> no rewrite needed?
[10:33] <orbin> tholme: can you give us the exact error?
[10:33] <thomas576> i didn't and it worked on mine :)
[10:33] <|rt|> what's the OT ubuntu channel?
[10:33] <tholme> yeah, brb...:P
[10:33] <qsloqs> ok :)

[10:34] <|rt|> Music_Shuffle: thanks
 thelostpatrol   grub-install /dev/hda or what you have... after modify menu.lst
[10:34] <thelostpatrol> what is this for
[10:34] <ziggy23> |rt| ot=off toipic
[10:34] <andreas_> thelostpatrol: Don't think you need to do that.
[10:34] <ziggy23> topic
[10:34] <Nubbie> you definitely don't need to do grub-install
[10:34] <thomas576> thelost, it rewrites the config file to grub on the boot device but i think your ok not doing it
[10:35] <Nubbie> grub picks up on changes to menu.list
[10:35] <SurfnKid> anyone know about splashimages?
[10:35] <Nubbie> !splash | surfnkid
[10:35] <ubotu> surfnkid: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[10:35] <thomas576> your ok with out itg i just tried it on my other box it works without running it
[10:35] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, thx
[10:35] <thelostpatrol> okay thanks andreas
[10:35] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, do you know about grub-splashimages tho?
[10:35] <klotho> Nubbie: I changed the repository from US servers to Main, and it found 67 extra updates... so the US servers appear to be broken
[10:35] <Nubbie> surfnkid: yeah i know about them.
[10:36] <cyros> thelostpatrol: i would just move the windows parition above the ubuntu one so it boots first
[10:36] <Nubbie> klotho: main servers are more than likely faster anyways.
[10:36] <Nubbie> cyros: why...
[10:36] <thomas576> cyros thats what we explained to him, just move the windows "paragraph" above all the linux ones
[10:36] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, its weird i cant load it up, ive installed it, ive made a symbolic link to the splash file, and now it just needs to call the file on menu.lst
[10:36] <thelostpatrol> cyros - you mean in the file?
[10:36] <thomas576> it will then start up as the defualt loaderd
[10:36] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, but apparently it aint doing so
[10:36] <cyros> yea
[10:36] <thomas576> yes
[10:36] <klotho> Nubbie: they were fast for the first 50 or so updates, but now have slowed to about 50Kbps
[10:36] <cyros> Nubbie: why not?
[10:36] <klotho> I mean KBps
[10:36] <thelostpatrol> okay cool, i'll do that now and i'll restart
[10:36] <cables> Why did they change the partition manager in the installer in Feisty? It's really much harder to use than GParted.
[10:37] <Nubbie> surfnkid: the splash image file needs to be on the root partition
[10:37] <thomas576> be back later bratworst and beer await
[10:37] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, so not as a symbolic link then
[10:37] <SurfnKid> :/
[10:37] <Nubbie> surfnkid: grub only loads the root partition.
[10:37] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, /boot then
[10:37] <SurfnKid> ok
[10:37] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, will check it out
[10:37] <cyros> splashimage for grub ?
[10:37] <SeveredCross> Blargh.
[10:37] <funkja> I am trying to compile software and I get this error message when I ./configure No package 'glib-2.0' found

[10:37] <funkja> No package 'gthread-2.0' found
[10:37] <funkja> No package 'gtk+-2.0' found

[10:38] <SeveredCross> That'll teach me to try and isntall Beryl over an already screwed up old install of Beryl.
[10:38] <Pooky> lol, I've given up on beryl ever since they quit including beryl-xgl
[10:38] <cyros> yea it have to be in the /boot/grub/spashimage folder
[10:38] <fraco> !pulseaudio
[10:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pulseaudio - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:38] <cyros> and you have to link it in the menu.lst
[10:38] <fraco> !esound
[10:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about esound - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:38] <dyrne> playing with beryl on knoppix right now.. its pretty cool
[10:39] <cyros> leave it compressed

[10:39] <thelostpatrol> beryl's awesome
[10:39] <thelostpatrol> i love it
[10:39] <SeveredCross> Pooky: I got it to run, but it screws up and the screen goes white after a while.
[10:39] <Ramunas> hello, how do I get my bluetooth usb dongle to work?
[10:39] <SeveredCross> Before that happens, it runs like a charm.

[10:40] <v21> yeah but try use beryl + watch film :) or run 3D accelerate game
[10:40] <klotho> what's beryl good for? just pretty or does it do something useful?
[10:40] <v21> beryl is suck
[10:40] <debaserx> ubuntu linux is not shutting down correctly, it remains in the completed splash screen without turning off power
[10:40] <SeveredCross> klotho: It's just pretty.
[10:40] <tholme> no matter what I choose, I get that message. 8bit, 16bit or 24bit. (configuring xserver-xorg)
[10:40] <SeveredCross> Really pretty.
[10:40] <SeveredCross> Heh.
[10:40] <qsloqs> v21 +1 ;)
[10:41] <v21> :)
[10:41] <|ericsson|> and when I do quotaon -avug I get that quotas are turned on. Does it mean they are saved, or not?
[10:41] <glock24_> hello
[10:41] <SeveredCross> Now if only the Live CD would actually boot to desktop on this system.
[10:42] <tholme> anyone know alot about configuring the xserver-xorg?
[10:42] <SeveredCross> I still have to use it though, oddly enough...The alternate CD freezes.
[10:42] <andreas_> SeveredCross: X doesn't work from the CD?
[10:42] <SeveredCross> andreas_: Can't find the card.
[10:42] <atrus> udevinfo is no longer returning vendor/product info for my mx1000 mouse. it does show up in /proc/bus/input/devices, but it's preventing me from creating udev rules that match this device properly. instead it just prints http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18856/

[10:42] <chatter> hi, i have installed squirrel mail on my server. but i can't watch the inbox. it just displays an empty frame at the right side
[10:43] <Geoffrey2> is it possible to reinstall grub from the Feisty live CD?
[10:43] <SeveredCross> Geoffrey2: It should be.
[10:43] <danlock2> sudo apt-get install grub?
[10:43] <glock24_> can somebody help me get rid of sound distortion with hda-intel?
[10:44] <andreas_> Geoffrey2: You mean rewriting the mbr?
[10:44] <debaserx> ubuntu linux is not shutting down correctly, it remains in the completed splash screen without turning off power
[10:44] <cyros> debaserx: how are you shutting it down
[10:45] <debaserx> cyros: with "system" > "exit" > "shut down"
[10:45] <|ericsson|> !sound > glock24_
[10:45] <qsloqs> debaserx its acpi issue
[10:45] <debaserx> qslogs: but how do I fix that?
[10:45] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, there must be something wrong Im doing, I copied the xpm.gz file onto the /boot folder
[10:46] <Geoffrey2> andreas, yes....I did thing a bit backwards, installed Ubuntu, THEN installed Windows, which of course overwrote the mbr...Bill Gates and Co will never get the award "Plays well with others" :)
[10:46] <cyros> how abot opening a term and doing the good old sudo shutdown now -h
[10:46] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, and ran update-grub and it says searching splash image... none found
[10:46] <stefg> !grub | Geoffrey2
[10:46] <ubotu> Geoffrey2: 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
[10:46] <qsloqs> debaserx check your bios options
[10:46] <debaserx> qslogs: I'm sure they're fine, they worked with previously installed  ubuntu and they work with windows
[10:47] <qsloqs> some old boards dont support acpi...
[10:47] <andreas_> Geoffrey2: You can do that from the live CD, just startup grub, set root to wherever the menu.lst is, and setup (write the mbr). Check google, should find alot of info how to write the mbr from grub.
[10:47] <procrsatinator> hey, i accidentally installed ubuntu with the wrong username, how does one go about fixing that?
[10:47] <debaserx> qslogs: acpi=off maybe?
[10:47] <SeveredCross> Go to the Users options, add a new user, log in as it, remove the old one?
[10:47] <SeveredCross> System --> Administrations --> Users and Groups.
[10:47] <qsloqs> debaserx then you turning off acpi
[10:47] <andreas_> Geoffrey2: Something like "root (hd0,1)" "setup (hd0)". I don't remember the exact commands.

[10:48] <debaserx> Baje: torrent
[10:48] <SurfnKid> !splash
[10:48] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[10:48] <procrsatinator> thanks severed
[10:48] <atrus> if i'm trying to track down a bug that only started occuring recently, how can i find older versions of packages to try downgrading to to isolate the problem? udev and linux-image* specifically

[10:50] <debaserx> qslogs: options are just fine
[10:50] <|ericsson|> s1: they are SATA?
[10:50] <thomas576> do you have your sata drive partitioned?
[10:50] <thomas576> or they 2 sata drives?
[10:50] <andreas_> s1: I think the new kernel shows sata drives as 'sd', like scsi
[10:50] <s1> |ericsson|, no
[10:50] <qsloqs> debaserx, so dont know.. sorry, look at google
[10:50] <mc44> all drives are sata drives now
[10:50] <s1> they're plain pata

[10:50] <Memories> Hello
[10:50] <thomas576> /anounce
[10:50] <DoubleOSven> my old ide drive shows as sda too
[10:50] <thelostpatrol> what's the command again, for editing the grub loader?
[10:51] <DoubleOSven> i think that they are all sda
[10:51] <stefg> !UUID | s1
[10:51] <ubotu> s1: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[10:51] <s1> mc44, could I point fstab towards the UUID or something after rebooting?
[10:51] <Memories> how can i copy a file from one directory to another using terminal ?
[10:51] <andreas_> thelostpatrol: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:51] <Memories> i tried cp /... /.... it gave me : omitting directory
[10:51] <MonsieurBon> shwag, I decided to code my own vpnc applet! :D
[10:51] <thelostpatrol> sudo gedit \boot\grub\menu.lst ?
[10:51] <walkintome> hi everyone. for some reason, my removable drive shows up twice on my desktop in feisty. How do I fix this?
[10:51] <mc44> thelostpatrol: forward slashes :)
[10:51] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, you there
[10:51] <|ericsson|> ide's does show as hd* but usb-sticks comes as sd*, same for sata-drives
[10:52] <cyros> thelostpatrol: did it work?
[10:52] <thelostpatrol> cyros - yes, thank you
[10:52] <Memories> anyone can help out with the command to copy files in terminal plz?!
[10:52] <jabagawee> big problems
[10:52] <jabagawee> can someone help me?
[10:52] <cyros> nice
[10:52] <andreas_> Memories: "cp" is the copy command.
[10:52] <thelostpatrol> cyros - i made the first menu item a divider though, hehe, so i have to remove it. but it works.
[10:52] <thelostpatrol> thanks
[10:52] <frogg> Memories type #cp --help
[10:53] <Memories> andreas_ thts wht i tried doing, cp /home..... /...
[10:53] <Memories> it gave me omitting
[10:53] <Memories> and it didnt copy anything
[10:53] <thelostpatrol> cyros, trying again now, brb
[10:53] <s1> stefg, blkid gives me nothing
[10:53] <jabagawee> when i try to boot from the Live CD, my CD drive makes a racket and then stops. the whole time, there is a black screen with a blinking underscore in the top left. then it boots into windows vista
[10:53] <jabagawee> sigh.... this aint good
[10:53] <andreas_> Memories: What are you copying? /home to ?
[10:53] <Vulcan40> Why when I click on Desktop Effects it says Composite Extension not Available???
[10:53] <jabagawee> can someone help me?

[10:54] <hugol2> Hi
[10:54] <hugol2> I need help with the grub
[10:54] <Vlet> jabagawee: It sounds like your cdrom drive does not want to boot off the cd
[10:54] <andreas_> Memories: Well cp <source> <destination> is how you write it. Can you paste the exact command here and what error you get?
[10:54] <jabagawee> LOL
[10:54] <hugol2> I made a second Ubuntu in the same computer and now the grub is all mess up
[10:55] <jabagawee> i already set the thing to boot from cd
[10:55] <jabagawee> first
[10:55] <Memories> ok andreas_ just a sec
[10:55] <walkintome> anyone know why an external hard drive would show up on the desktop twice?
[10:55] <Vlet> jabagawee: that may no tbe the problem. you may have a corrupt cd, or some cdrom drives don't want to boot off certain types of blank cd's
[10:55] <debaserx> qslogs, *: acpi=force is the solution
[10:55] <jabagawee> oh gosh
[10:55] <jabagawee> that seems terrible
[10:55] <s1> weren't there a dir I could "ls" in the /dev-dir to get me the uuid names?
[10:56] <qsloqs> debaserx cool thanks ;)
[10:56] <jabagawee> my cd shouldnt be corrupt, i burned it in nero
[10:56] <jabagawee> and then used iso recorder
[10:56] <Vlet> jabagawee: life is hard
[10:56] <jabagawee> to rip an iso file off
[10:56] <|ericsson|> is there a painless way I quickly can find out my gateway?
[10:56] <jabagawee> and checksumed the two isos
[10:56] <sinisterguy> i'm having some trouble getting my als4000 gameport to work. if i do an lsmod, the gameport module is loaded, but if i load joydev or grip (the required modules for my joystick) no js0 device is created
[10:56] <max_> i need help
[10:56] <Memories> cp /home/andreas_/Desktop/WinMSN7 /usr/share/amsn/skins

[10:56] <Nvening> hi, i need to sort out the display driver for my ati pc with ubuntu feisty as the my native res isnt allowed, are there other open drivers available or do i have to use the ati closed ones??
[10:56] <|ericsson|> !ask > max_
[10:57] <Memories> andreas_ and this is the reply :cp: omitting directory `/home/tu/Desktop/WinMSN7'
[10:57] <Vlet> andreas_: I think you meant to reply to walkintome
[10:57] <jabagawee> Vlet: to be exact, its a HP Pavillion dv6205us
[10:57] <sinisterguy> Nvening: it depends on the age of your card
[10:57] <jabagawee> any clues

[10:57] <ashill> heres a question, Can anyone give me instructions on how to load/install gui or gnome desktop I have ubuntu 7.04 Server
[10:57] <un4get> cables?
[10:57] <Nvening> its an x800xt
[10:57] <un4get> done... option opened...
[10:57] <|ericsson|> ashill: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[10:57] <Vlet> jabagawee: You might want to try using a different blank cd - I've had to do it.
[10:57] <max_> ok, well im tryng to transpher files from one hard drive to an other but the thing freazes
[10:58] <Memories> andreas_ wht does "omitting directory" stands for
[10:58] <jabagawee> hmmm
[10:58] <andreas_> Memories: Use option -r to copy recursively.
[10:58] <jabagawee> i only have one brand
[10:58] <ashill> thanks eric
[10:58] <|ericsson|> np
[10:58] <max_> ?
[10:58] <un4get> is cables here?
[10:58] <drew> Nvening: i use ati x850xt, fglrx is the driver you want, after installing it through "Restricted Drivers Manager" you have to add your resolution
[10:58] <walkintome> andreas_: I WOULDNT KNOW HOW TO CHECK THAT
[10:58] <Memories> andreas_ like this==>> cp -r /.... /... ?
[10:58] <andreas_> Memories: Or -R even
[10:58] <walkintome> andreas_: sorry, hit caps by mistake
[10:58] <ashill> |ericsson|, is there anything else to do, what command do i run after that?
[10:58] <andreas_> memories: Yes
[10:58] <Memories> andreas_ , ok thank you for helping out :)
[10:59] <|ericsson|> ashill: sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get upgrade are always advisable
[10:59] <foomanchew> whats the debian package that installs the necessary development tools ?
[10:59] <un4get> hey, who helped me before in PM?
[10:59] <andreas_> walkintome: more /etc/fstab , check if it is there...
[10:59] <jabagawee> any other clues
[10:59] <foomanchew> for compiling code ? has make and gcc etc
[10:59] <jabagawee> ?
[10:59] <Vlet> jabagawee: well, three things you can do - look into see if compaq released some updates for your drive, try reburning the cd just to make sure, or get a different blank cd.
[10:59] <drew> Nvening: do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" follow prompts untill you get to resolutions, and just add your desired resolutions, then finish and restart X.
[10:59] <walkintome> andreas_: nope, it isnt
[10:59] <jabagawee> k
[10:59] <jabagawee> i'll look at the drivers
[10:59] <ashill> |ericsson|, after that do I run gdm start to load the gui up?
[10:59] <foomanchew> whats the debian package that installs the necessary development tools ? has binutils , make, gcc etc ????
[11:00] <elmer> hi, i've got problem with live cd install ubuntu 7.04, while the xorg is loading i get an error "no screens found", my graphic card is ati radeon 1600 mobility, does anybody know how to solve this problem ?;] 
[11:00] <andreas_> walkintome: Sorry I don't know then :P Maybe someone comes along later that can help you.
[11:00] <foomanchew> anyone ?
[11:00] <gottreu> other than $USER/.Trash where could files in the Trash be stored?
[11:00] <|ericsson|> ashill: with a bit of luck all you might need is to: startx
[11:00] <Vulcan40> what does composite extension unavailable mean??? I get that message when I try to access desktop effects
[11:00] <Shelagh> foomanchew: build-essentials
[11:00] <Vlet> foomanchew: I think it's build-essential
[11:00] <walkintome> andreas_: no problem...any help is appreciated =)
[11:00] <[sun] xeon`10> for running a server - dual xeon with radeon x800xt, should i use kubuntu server or ubuntu server?
[11:00] <foomanchew> Shelagh, thanks I can never remember that one
[11:00] <jabagawee> where does one get the gma 950 driver for linux?
[11:01] <foomanchew> woot I have a new workstation
[11:01] <ashill> |ericsson|, k thnks
[11:02] <jabagawee> oh gawd, i cant find the drivers for the cd drive
[11:02] <ashill> |ericsson|, and so this will work for the Ubuntu Server right and not just the Ubuntu Desktop?
[11:03] <|ericsson|> ashill: I played around with it on 6.06 server, did work..
[11:03] <dn4> what does preemption mean?
[11:03] <walkintome> whenever i restart my computer i need to run "sudo depmod -a && sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" so that my internet works. is there any way to automate this process?
[11:03] <ashill> |ericsson|, nice
[11:03] <|ericsson|> ashill: not that you would need the GUI, but anyway ;)
[11:03] <Vlet> jabagawee: not driver; an update for the cdrom drive's bios, and it appears there isn't one
[11:03] <thelostpatrol> thanks guys it worked great :)
[11:03] <jabagawee> shoot
[11:04] <jabagawee> thats not good
[11:04] <un4get> hey, who helped me a while ago??
[11:04] <ashill> |ericsson|, well the gui is nice just to manage the server... isn't command line a pain?
[11:04] <Vlet> no, that's fine - like I said, you should try to re-burn the cd, or find a new blank cd
[11:04] <|ericsson|> ashill: for me it's the other way around, the GUI is the pain :)
[11:04] <jabagawee> okay then
[11:04] <jabagawee> this'll take a while
[11:04] <ashill> Whats the difference between gdm and startx?
[11:04] <jabagawee> and i only have 50 min for the install
[11:04] <EDinNY> Trying to upgrade to fiesty
[11:04] <jabagawee> and the reburn
[11:04] <jabagawee> will that be enough time?
[11:04] <Vlet> perhaps
[11:05] <|ericsson|> ashill: you could always stick with command-line and add webmin if you want some kind of lite GUI on the server
[11:05] <un4get> can someone help me out with resizing my HD for the ubuntu partition?

[11:06] <Alizarium> anyone tell me the server for beryl help?
[11:06] <|ericsson|> would be webmin.com
[11:06] <Vlet> ashill: gdm runs without you being logged in; it's a graphical login screen. startx is just used to start the graphical interface after you have logged in at the commandline
[11:06] <|ericsson|> or .org, can't rememer which ;)
[11:06] <coolgeek> If i dont want to boot into gui how would i set that up?

[11:14] <USSJoin> Vlet: Easy way to check this is to change your kerberos password, then see if you can log in using the new password both times. If not (and the second has to be passed with your old one) then that's what happened.

[11:15] <qsloqs> so just killing gdm could solve... or killing symlink in rc2.d directory
[11:15] <concept10> EDinNY, runlevel 1 is cool for single user with networking.  Use the sysv-rcconf tool to see whats in the runlevels..
[11:15] <USSJoin> Vlet: Honestly, I forget right now where the *layering* part is set up/ how. I'd try my quick password change idea, see what happens.
[11:15] <Xenosyn> does anyone know if I can use a windows usb wireless internet adapter with ubuntu?
[11:15] <cchance> Dont abuse the bots r ljl gets verry angry
[11:15] <Chav3s> For those who9 like OpenArena, is there any server for online gaming ?
[11:15] <cchance> iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables Was given to me to save the iptables file but it does not work. Anybody got one that does
[11:16] <EDinNY> concept10: what I am really trying to do is upgrade to feisty, but the upgrade tool never gets launched
[11:16] <USSJoin> Vlet: Especially 'cause that's something you can do that won't totally lock you out. (Screwing with PAM can be dangerous.)
[11:16] <maan84> Music_Shuffle: unfortunetly if i play another song or anything it doesnt come back, not only music that stop working but all sounds, gaim vlc etc
[11:16] <megafauna> cyros: yes, i see them. in the properties dialog it says they are owned by root and are 0kb in size (it is 60 gig).
[11:16] <Vlet> USSJoin: good ideas - thanks :)
[11:16] <casey_> hi, how do you create a shortcut for fretsonfire (normally you have to do this in terminal: ./FretsonFire)
[11:16] <Geoffrey2> ok, I got as far as grub-install  and am getting "Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device."
[11:16] <Music_Shuffle> maan84: Ouch, I've never done that, sorry >_<
[11:16] <ubuntu> my windows can not start compleetly it start's in a loop over and over again when i push the power button
[11:16] <concept10> EDinNY, well you may want to upgrade manually.. The wiki has a page on it for reference
[11:16] <cyros> megafauna: are you using the sudo command when trying to mount them?
[11:16] <Xenosyn> does anyone know if I can use a windows usb wireless internet adapter with ubuntu?
[11:17] <Music_Shuffle> !wireless | Xenosyn
[11:17] <ubotu> Xenosyn: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:17] <USSJoin> casey_: You mean in the GNOME menus or something?
[11:17] <Xenosyn> I know I looked at it it didnt help me
[11:17] <casey_> well, on desktop
[11:17] <Chav3s> It's sad the game cant find a server. That game is phantastic
[11:17] <thomas576> @ubuntu is there more then 1 windows on the grub boot list?
[11:17] <megafauna> yes, here is the page: http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=585
[11:17] <maan84> Music_Shuffle: Np^^ Though I could restard ESD or Alsa mixer or whichever makes the sound work just like u can restart gnome :)
[11:17] <EDinNY> concept10 you mean just change the /etc/apt/sources manually?
[11:17] <qsloqs> could anyone tell me if i can jump from dapper to feisty without problem?
[11:17] <USSJoin> casey_: On the desktop itself, just make a symbolic link. To make a link in the menus, run alacarte
[11:17] <EDinNY> then apt-get upgrade?
[11:18] <Nubbie> qsloqs: no.
[11:18] <casey_> ok
[11:18] <qsloqs> damn
[11:18] <thomas576> qsloqs i did, found a post in the forums and im running fine
[11:18] <jabagawee> cya
[11:18] <cyros> i believe you have to change the source list
[11:18] <casey_> USSJoin -  how do you make a symbolic link then??
[11:18] <ashill> #/join suse
[11:18] <Nubbie> qsloqs: go through edgy.
[11:18] <cchance> How can i do i save my IPTABLES?????? Ive tried something like: iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables but it dont work
[11:18] <IgorSobreira> hey guys...anybody could help me with my sound...when i play a movie in totem...it says "Could not open resource for writing."....i can see the video..but no sound....
[11:18] <Music_Shuffle> qsloqs: uhh, go in order.
[11:18] <concept10> EDinNY, yep, but dist-upgrade
[11:18] <qsloqs> Nubbie ok.. more secure i guess ;)
[11:18] <EDinNY> concept10: do I need to change sources to distupgradxe?
[11:18] <Nubbie> EDinNY: no
[11:19] <concept10> EDinNY, yes... like I said see the wiki page for complete guidance
[11:19] <EDinNY> tnx
[11:19] <Nubbie> EDinNY: gksu update-manager -c -d
[11:19] <USSJoin> casey_: Go where you want the link to be, then type "ln -s <nameofthelink> <thing you're linking to> "
[11:19] <Nubbie> EDinNY: update-manager is the recommended method of upgrading.
[11:19] <concept10> Nubbie, he said the update manager didnt work for him
[11:19] <thomas576> good luck guys im out
[11:19] <casey_> oh, ok, awesome, ta
[11:19] <ashill> EDinNY, what does gksu update-manager -c -d    do?
[11:19] <Nubbie> concept10: really?
[11:19] <Chav3s> Those guys from Linux Mint are doing a great job concerning artworks :-)
[11:19] <Nubbie> concept10: that sucks.
[11:20] <megafauna> cyros: any ideas
[11:20] <nuu> cchance: you should insert your iptables rules in a firewall script that gets called at logon
[11:20] <Nubbie> Chav3s: steal there themes.
[11:20] <concept10> Nubbie, it hasnt worked for me either in the last two releases
[11:20] <Chav3s> hehhe :-)
[11:20] <USSJoin> Does anyone have an idea about my DVDRW question? (Namely, why it doesn't appear to exist?)
[11:20] <casey_> USSJoin: i guess i was looking to make a launcher with a pretty icon
[11:20] <coolgeek> is there any one else here who can help getting me to be straight into CL
[11:20] <ubuntu> @thomas576 no there isnt it start on the boot screen it start again i have to push enter for starting windwos but in safe mode it wont start either
[11:20] <USSJoin> casey_: You can give the link an icon IIRC.
[11:20] <Nubbie> concept10: really? i have never once had a problem with it. thats really unfortunate. good things there's always a plan b
[11:20] <nuu> cchance: many firewalls will accept raw iptables rules in a "rules"-like file
[11:20] <Music_Shuffle> coolgeek: Change the runlevel you boot into? >.>
[11:20] <USSJoin> casey_: But it might just be nicer (prettiness-wise) to either make a launcher on a GNOME panel (right click), or to put it on a GNOME menu (use alacarte).
[11:21] <coolgeek> Music_Shuffle: yes but im not sure how ... ive just sent you a private message
[11:21] <Xenosyn> can I use an empty hard drive to install linux and if so what kind of partiotion should it be set on
[11:21] <concept10> Nubbie, no, dist-upgrade is plan A :)
[11:21] <cchance> nuu, Thats what im looking for but i dont know anything but to put it into iptables and then to do something liek iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables
[11:21] <Vlet> USSJoin: just fyi, I had to add 'use_first_pass' after the 'pam_krb5.so' assertation in common-auth
[11:21] <mzaza> Why does the skype graphics quality sucks on gnome, while it works perfect on kde?
[11:21] <Nubbie> :l for debian that is :)

[11:22] <mzaza> Why does the skype graphics quality sucks on gnome, while it works perfect on kde?

[11:22] <ashill> Is Ubuntu Fiesty better than Fedora 6?
[11:22] <danlock2> there we go
[11:22] <danlock2> lol
[11:22] <Nubbie> mzaza: because skype uses QT, gnome uses GTK
[11:22] <USSJoin> casey_: That's correct. THat won't work; you need to put a full path. Where is fretsonfire located?
[11:22] <RobbieCrash> !caps > jabagawee
[11:22] <nuu> cchance: if you really want to use iptables-save and iptables-restore, dump the iptables-save output to a file, and load that file into iptables-restore at startup, from, say, /etc/init.d/rc.local
[11:23] <Nubbie> !repeat | danlock2 (:D)

[11:23] <michael117> ashill: There is not really a such thing as better because different distros are suited for different people... it's all about preference
[11:23] <ashill> to anybody, is Ubuntu Fiesty better than Fedora 6?
[11:23] <mzaza> Nubbie: Is their any solution for this problem? Or can I install qt on gnome?

[11:24] <thelostpatrol> bruenig, i didn't have any before this one, so i didn't get a chance to learn that before... but thanks for the info, i can't wait
[11:24] <USSJoin> casey_: Cool. So now try something: open a terminal, type "cd /" then hit enter.
[11:24] <USSJoin> casey_: Now, type exactly that path you told me, and see if it launches.
[11:24] <michael117> ashill: Well, you'd have to install cedega or get wine to work with it in both so there is no difference really
[11:25] <Nvening> anyone??
[11:25] <USSJoin> casey_: (Naturally, without quotes.)
[11:25] <megafauna> thelostpatrol: you have to partition your dirve when you install now. have a seperate partition for the kernal. let me find you a link
[11:25] <magnetron> mzaza: Skype does not allow you to connect to Skype with Ekiga.
[11:25] <mzaza> Nubbie: Well, as far as I know, that Ekiga just let me call computers, not phones
[11:25] <cchance> Can some one translate:  iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables so that it works for ubuntu
[11:25] <bruenig> I wonder if there is anyone who still has there initial ubuntu hedgehog or whatever it was and has not fresh installed, just upgraded all the way to feisty
[11:25] <mzaza> magnetron: Ya, that's what I ment. Thanks magnetron
[11:25] <ashill> michael117, ok thanks,  what needs does Ubuntu meet in general?  Why do you like it?
[11:25] <Nubbie> mzaza: then it sounds like you're stuck with ugly QT skype.
[11:25] <nuu> cchance: try doing something like sudo iptables-save > somefile, and then sudo pico /etc/init.d/rc.local, and put into that file something like "sudo iptables-restore < somefile"

[11:26] <USSJoin> casey_: Then your script is appallingly badly written.
[11:26] <USSJoin> casey_: Luckily, there's a workaround.
[11:26] <Nvening> thanks
[11:26] <michael117> ashill: I just like Ubuntu because of the package management system based off of the Debian one which essentially eliminates dependency hell where you try to install an application and it requires another program to be installed or library and you have to hunt it down and install that
[11:26] <Nubbie> un4get: is your windows partition defragmented and unmounted?
[11:26] <casey_> USSJoin: I think that's the least of those script writer's worries ;)   they make an awesome game for three platforms simultaneously...

[11:28] <casey_> ok, ta
[11:28] <USSJoin> casey_: (That's chmod +x)

[11:34] <shawn34> I'm trying to use my keyboard multimedia keys to control the audio player, but whenever I press the volume control, it changes the master, how can i set it up to change something else?
[11:34] <is_null> it seems like no window wants to open
[11:34] <un4get> can someone tell me how?
[11:34] <un4get> i allways get "fail" can we PM Renan_s2 ?
[11:35] <Renan_s2> un4get, install Windows, create a partition for Ubuntu and install Ubuntu on the new partition
[11:35] <nuu> is_null: what CAN you do ?
[11:35] <bruenig> nuu, but it needs to be a command that doesn't require root and that doesn't require interaction
[11:35] <nanana> HiHi. Is there any way i can create my own ubuntu-based distro?
[11:35] <Renan_s2> un4get, no, don't PM, solve here it on the channel
[11:35] <un4get> ok...
[11:35] <nuu> bruenig: i was trying to debug is_null's situation ;)

[11:36] <nuu> is_null: i assume you tried forced shutdown ?
[11:36] <nuu> as in, hit power for 5 seconds
[11:36] <shawn34> How do i make Amarok the default media player, not rhythmbox?
[11:36] <un4get> so im resizing my /dev/sda1/ from the 60gigs he has (30gig free)and im taking 10gigs from it
[11:36] <nuu> and then restarted
[11:36] <un4get> im doing "apply"
[11:36] <maddler> is_null: hmmm... sounds like a problem I had right after upgrading...
[11:36] <bruenig> shawn34, you right click on an mp3 or whatever else music file and change the open with
[11:36] <un4get> and i get an error...
[11:36] <mulle> I'll ask again... do ubuntu have some kind of support for dualview, then name it plz.
[11:36] <un4get> "could not be applied to disk"
[11:36] <un4get> something like that
[11:36] <maddler> is_null: I solved installing a missing package...
[11:36] <Renan_s2> un4get, take note of the error message
[11:37] <Renan_s2> then tell it here
[11:37] <mat1980> un4get, is that partition mounted?
[11:37] <shawn34> mulle, has nothing to do with the distro really, yes, X can support dual view
[11:38] <un4get> An error occurred while applying the operations
[11:38] <mc44> Geoffrey2: ...?
[11:38] <un4get> he following operation could not be applied to disk:
[11:38] <maddler> is_null: can you access a console? X?
[11:38] <derrin> I need to convert a dir full of .avi files to .mpg files using mencoder.    Is this also doable using -R ??  Anyone know?
[11:38] <wojtano> hello i have big problem with my SB Live!24 sound card
[11:39] <Nubbie> !soundblaster
[11:39] <ubotu> soundblaster is If you need help with setting up your soundblaster card, then visit https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundcardsWithHardwareSynth
[11:39] <maddler> derrin: -R?
[11:39] <is_null> it doesn't unlock, it doesn't do anything when "change user" is clicked
[11:39] <is_null> also i noticed that ethernet and wifi weren't working at all : wireless capabilities seem killed on eth1, eth0 seems working but not getting any dhcp offer (4 other machines get it correctly)
[11:39] <un4get> Resize /dev/sda1 from 58.59 GiB to 48.52 GiB
[11:39] <un4get> See the details for more information
[11:39] <un4get> this is the error...
[11:39] <un4get> dont know what mounted means and how to do it...
[11:39] <un4get> so im assuming dat its not mounted..
[11:39] <USSJoin> mulle: google "ubuntu multi monitor" and don't ask nastily.
[11:39] <shawn34> How do i make Amarok the default media player, not rhythmbox for the keyboard shortcuts?
[11:39] <un4get> how do i mount it?
[11:39] <shawn34> sudo mount
[11:39] <erUSUL> derrin: for f in `ls *.avi` do mencoder f; done  or something to that efect...
[11:40] <mat1980> un4get, open details an paste what is there
[11:40] <drew> shawn34: uninstall rhythmbox, and install amaroK?
[11:40] <shawn34> drew, did
[11:40] <maddler> is_null: apt-get install system-services
[11:40] <un4get> status: unmounted
[11:40] <derrin> sorry ... rather than change each and every file, I wondered if I could convert a dir full of .avi files into .mpg files with a single command?
[11:40] <drew> shawn34: find a mp3 file, right click, properties, Open With tab, select amaroK click Ok.
[11:40] <Nubbie> drew: try banshee, or any other GTK player for that matter.
[11:40] <AngryElf> everytime i open a folder in nautilus it opens a new instance of nautilus (in the new folder) and closes the old one -- any way to stop this behavior?
[11:40] <shawn34> drew, it is
[11:40] <un4get> do i need to mount it? if do, how do i do that ?
[11:40] <maddler> derrin: you can't convert a DIR... you have to convert files...
[11:40] <mat1980> un4get, no you have to not mount it
[11:40] <drew> Nubbie: nah, im using Listen myself =] 
[11:41] <drew> shawn34: and it's still not your default player?
[11:41] <un4get> ok, so how do i do it?
[11:41] <maddler> derrin: and, no, mencoder won't allow to tell "convert everything"
[11:41] <shawn34> drew, when i press the audio player key on my keyboard it gives me an error saying unable to launch rhythmbox
[11:41] <mat1980> un4get, that partition is ntfs?
[11:41] <zilly66> anyone with advice on installing flash on x64 feisty?
[11:41] <un4get> yep
[11:41] <Geoffrey2> mc44, trying to dual boot computer, installed Vista in a seperate partition on a computer that already had Ubuntu on it...now I need to recover grub....I'm getting errors, am not familar enough with Linux to know how to work around it myself
[11:41] <drew> oh, hmm, never used a keyboard with media shortcuts, no clue shawn34 =[
[11:41] <mc44> !grub | Geoffrey2

[11:41] <Nubbie> geoffrey2: whyyy...
[11:41] <mc44> Geoffrey2: tried that?
[11:41] <derrin> erUSUL:  sorry I didn't follow  (Sorry I'm a noobie (less than a week on Linux))
[11:42] <drew> shawn34: check xorg.conf keyboard settings maybe
[11:42] <un4get> malt1980: it is NTFS
[11:42] <demonspork> are there any other sound Daemons or Servers or whatever they are called than the one that autoinstalled with Ubuntu??  IT seems pretty limited because it doesn't seem to be able to play sound from 2 applications at one tie

[11:42] <wojtano> hello i have 5.1 spekaers but 3 speakers don't work :/
[11:42] <g0ow> has anyone had problems upgrading dapper->edgy??
[11:42] <Nubbie> demonspork: that would be ESD. if you can configure it, make all of your applications use Alsa.
[11:42] <un4get> how do I mount the drives?
[11:43] <mat1980> un4get, maybe there are some problems in the filesystem. In the details there should be some tips
[11:43] <Nubbie> !mount | un4get
[11:43] <ubotu> un4get: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[11:43] <mc44> g0ow: lots of people did :)
[11:43] <g0ow> i still can't fix my problem
[11:43] <mc44> g0ow: which is..?
[11:43] <g0ow> i thought it was the gpg key
[11:43] <wojtano> 3 of my speakers don't work in sb live! 24
[11:43] <demonspork> Nubbie, so would I be able to hear and talk to a VOIP application running in Wine at the same time as, say watching a video on Youtube?
[11:43] <mat1980> un4get, don't mount partition that you want resize. You could loose your data.
[11:44] <g0ow> hold on, ill get output and pastebin
[11:44] <Nubbie> demonspork: set up wine to use ALSA.
[11:44] <Riyonuk> I have pc without internet, and with a fresh 6.10 installed. I have a usb and am currently at the library, can I install programs from here and take them to the house? I know its like that with windows..
[11:44] <coolgeek> can some one tell me the command to start my wireless from CLI?
[11:44] <coolgeek> please
[11:44] <Geoffrey2> mc44, that's what I've been trying to use, but the "sudo /sbin/grub-install /dev/sda" command returns an error that it couldn't find a device for /boot
[11:44] <mc44> Geoffrey2: you may need to subsitute for sda
[11:44] <coolgeek> is it etc/init.d/networking start
[11:44] <mat1980> un4get, we need more details about the error.
[11:45] <is_null> nuu: of course i haven't hard shutdown; maddler : this is a fresh feisty install, i can't access a console nor X, screen is locked an no keyboard;
[11:45] <Nubbie> riyunuk: you can copy all of the .deb packages needed and install them by had.
[11:45] <zilly66> flash on x64, anyone?
[11:45] <drew> has anyone changed their ttys0 resolution? i've done it before but can't remember what i did =[
[11:45] <Nubbie> riyunuk: hand**
[11:45] <RobbieCrash> Is there a fix for the weirdness with some feisty installs and the crashing Xorg with new Nvidia drivers?
[11:45] <coolgeek> can some one tell me the command to start my wireless from CLI?
[11:45] <AngryElf> how come GTK 2.x themes won't work with Ubuntu?
[11:45] <mc44> Geoffrey2: i.e. if ubuntu is on a different drive
[11:45] <coolgeek> is it etc/init.d/networking start
[11:45] <Nubbie> !repeat | coolgeek
[11:45] <ubotu> coolgeek: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:45] <Riyonuk> I think I tried that a long time ago, but I needed loads of dependencies
[11:45] <Geoffrey2> mc44, my hard drive is a serial ata, so wouldn't sda be the correct identifier...and I only have one physical drive installed
[11:46] <Nubbie> riyonuk: yeah generally.
[11:46] <Riyonuk> will the .deb ruin my system? By that I mean it wont be in the Syanptic Package Manager list, or menus, like I can tell its not welcomed XD
[11:46] <maddler> is_null: doh!!!
[11:46] <Will4042> nick Will404[2] 
[11:46] <derrin> Maddler:  Okay... it was worth an ask.  Thank you!
[11:46] <mc44> Geoffrey2: ah yes, should be :/
[11:46] <is_null> maddler: what do you mean doh ?
[11:46] <maddler> is_null: doh = what a strange behaviour...
[11:46] <Nubbie> riyonuk: no, get your files from the ubuntu site. as long as you install them in order, it should work.
[11:46] <mc44> Geoffrey2: does 'sudo fdisk -l' suggest that?
[11:46] <Riyonuk> :o
[11:46] <Riyonuk> where exactly?
[11:46] <coolgeek> can any one help?
[11:47] <Geoffrey2> I presume that means my boot partition is different than my root partition and I need to mount it.....but since Linux can't write to NTFS (or shouldn't)..... ?
[11:47] <maddler> is_null: sounds like something went wrong while installing...
[11:47] <phrontist> I just installed Ubuntu Server 7.04, and on first bootup it hung (I just get a blinking cursor, that I can't get beyond). I had not done a disk integrity check, so I burned a new disc, and now I can't even get an install screen to come up - when I select "install to harddisk" I get the same blinking cursor. Help!
[11:47] <g0ow> when i do gksu "update-manager -c"
[11:47] <g0ow> it loads up and says 6.10 is out, i try to upgrade, and then i get the error "authenticating the upgrade failed. there may be a problem with the network or the server."
[11:48] <Nubbie> phrontist: use safe graphics mode.
[11:48] <wojtano> hello in my 5.1 spekaer only 2.1 spekaers work what's the problem??
[11:48] <phrontist> Nubbie: How?
[11:48] <Nubbie> phrontist: its another boot option of the livecd.
[11:48] <phrontist> Nubbie: okay, will try
[11:48] <phrontist> brb
[11:48] <qsloqs> g0ow gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv KEY!    and then   gpg --export --armor KEY! | sudo apt-key add -
[11:49] <is_null> maddler: i need to install a fresher kernel anyway, and install system-services; thank you all for your kind support
[11:49] <qsloqs> g0ow run in console sudo update and sudo dist-upgrade, that will give you key on error
[11:49] <Riyonuk> Nubbie, where?
[11:49] <Geoffrey2> mc44, sda1 - HPFS/NTFS (flagged as boot), sda2 -ext3 (my root), sda3 - swap, sda4 - ext3 (/home)
[11:50] <maddler> is_null: you are welcom!
[11:50] <cafuego> qsloqs: sudo apt-key advanced --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys KEYID
[11:50] <Nubbie> riyonuk: http://archive.ubuntu.com maybe. if not try googling "ubuntu archive"
[11:50] <g0ow> qsloqs, can i PM you?
[11:50] <mc44> Geoffrey2: did you mount /boot first?
[11:50] <qsloqs> g0ow just run that says cafuego
[11:51] <g0ow> cafuego?
[11:51] <cafuego> it automatically fetches and imports, rather than two steps.
[11:51] <jain> hi
[11:51] <g0ow> oh
[11:51] <shawn34> there has to be a setting in gconf for default media player, but i can't find it.. any help?
[11:51] <Riyonuk> Nubbie, this? http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[11:51] <Riyonuk> and what version is 6.10, dapper?
[11:52] <cafuego> Edgy
[11:52] <Geoffrey2> mc44, it doesn't matter that the whole sda1 partition was overwritten when Vista was installed?
[11:52] <Riyonuk> ok thanks
[11:52] <Nubbie> geoffrey2: it probably does matter.
[11:52] <J-_> what does the cpu <percentage> id mean? it's running at 99%
[11:53] <mc44> Geoffrey2: ah. perhaps. If you have access to a burner I recommend trying Super Grub Disk
[11:53] <mc44> Geoffrey2: as long as you only have one linux install
[11:53] <Riyonuk> What music player might one recomend? I tried XMMS but the interface is horrible
[11:53] <Nubbie> J-_: it means 99% of your available CPU cycles are being used.
[11:53] <colbert> Riyonuk: Amarok for sure
[11:53] <g0ow> what does it mean to do a clean install?
[11:53] <Riyonuk> thats what I was thinking...
[11:53] <J-_> Nubbie: how can I change that?
[11:53] <v21> XMMs rules just change skin ^^
[11:53] <nuu> g0ow: a clean install means you reinstall an operating system from scratch
[11:54] <phrontist> Nubbie: I'm sorry, I don't understand how to select safe-mode on the live cd
[11:54] <nuu> not update from a previous version, or hack together a bunch of up-to-date packages, or whatever
[11:54] <g0ow> someone told me to just do a clean install of edgy
[11:54] <Nubbie> Riyonuk: if you're installing it by hand, ie. with debs while not connected to the internet, use a simple music program to make your life easier.
[11:54] <Riyonuk> I cannot do this
[11:54] <Riyonuk> http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/kde/amarok
[11:54] <thelostpatrol> clicking links in ubuntu doesn't work... what can i do to fix that?
[11:54] <Riyonuk> I am not going to sit here and download all of those
[11:54] <Riyonuk> too much work >_<
[11:54] <nuu> g0ow: what that someone meant was, grab the edgy cd, put it in the drive, and push the reboot button
[11:54] <Music_Shuffle> rofl
[11:55] <Comrade-Sergei> my sound randomly stops working and i have to reboot to fix how can i fix this?
[11:55] <Nubbie> phrontist: hit F6 i believe, then type vga=774 or something. read the help section on the boot screen of the livecd.
[11:55] <is_null> also i have to dhclient myself with a ralink usb keys
[11:55] <Riyonuk> There has to be an easier way
[11:55] <g0ow> im on dapper right now, i want to be able to get edgy so i can upgrade to feisty
[11:55] <mat1980> J- && Nubbie, it means 99% of you avalable CPU cycles are being NOT used
[11:55] <Music_Shuffle> !away | limetang
[11:55] <ubotu> limetang: away is <sed> /$/ and !nickspam/
[11:55] <g0ow> there's no way to go from dapper->feisty, right?
[11:55] <ashill> Hi, I just did sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop,  now what do I do to get the graphical interface?
[11:55] <Louey> no
[11:56] <LjL> Music_Shuffle: ouch... that is my fault =)
[11:56] <Comrade-Sergei> g0ow unfortunatly no
[11:56] <Louey> !upgrade
[11:56] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:56] <Riyonuk> So is there an easier way? There really should be .ubuntu files for people like me, so I dont have to download all of the dependancies
[11:56] <g0ow> everything i try to get dapper to upgrade always fails
[11:56] <Comrade-Sergei> !away | Comrade-Sergei
[11:56] <Geoffrey2> of course, given that I have essentially a fresh install of Feisty, I suppose I could just take the slightly longer but simpler approach of just reinstalling Fieisty and let the install process put grub back in
[11:56] <ashill> Hi, I just did sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop,  now what do I do to get the graphical interface?
[11:56] <Music_Shuffle> LjL: ahh ok, wanted to make sure I wasn't just being stupid xD

[11:57] <thelostpatrol> it just highlights them
[11:57] <nuu> g0ow: has it occurred to you that instead of doing a clean install of edgy, if your purpose is going feisty, you could go for a clean install of, well, feisty ?

[11:58] <nuu> Geoffrey2: it's linux that is not very friendly!
[11:59] <thelostpatrol> clicking links in ubuntu doesn't work... what can i do to fix that?
[11:59] <mc44> Binja: just a few thousand people :)
[11:59] <J-_> Nubbie: in top it says, Cpu(s): 0.2%us. 0.2%sy, 0.0%ni, 99.9%id, 0,0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st. is 'id" suppose to be that high?
[11:59] <nuu> Geoffrey2: or rather, as the old adage goes, "it's not that linux isnt user-friendly, it's just that it's very selective about who his friends are"
[11:59] <Nubbie> lol.
[11:59] <kane77> LjL, why is it wrong to use public away messages? (not that I do it)
[11:59] <Comrade-Sergei> lawl
[11:59] <Stormx2> What on earth? Why is 'shift' in my bash script making my feisty kernel error? o.I

[11:59] <shwag> how do I remove something along with all the extra junk it installed too?
[11:59] <Nubbie> kane77: because if 1200 people all use them, it will be very annoying.
[12:00] <mat1980> J- that top says you cpu is idle for 99% of the cpu time

[12:00] <nuu> mc44: windows is like a kid locked up in a basement by his schizophrenic parents
[12:00] <nuu> it's only gotten to know himself
[12:00] <mat1980> J- so that should be good
[12:00] <kane77> Nubbie, ehm, yes that's true...
[12:00] <ashill> Nubbie, the error said "Cannot  stat /etc/X11/X  (No such file or directory)  Aborting..  any suggestions?
