[12:01] <ubuntuEdgy> guys i want to make an icon, that when i double click it will wol my other pc
[12:01] <AlexC_> deCon: if you do in terminal "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and then select the correct driver (nvidia for nVidia, fglrx for ATI)
[12:01] <Meatbag> no, i have my other computer connected to my home network and it doesn't have a cd drive...
[12:01] <ashlon> synjet, I can't find the music file that i ripped
[12:01] <mjunx> Meatbag, does it have a floppy drive?
[12:01] <Ernz> mjunx: I am too drink to try and install nvidia drivers at the moment. I'm gonna wobble off and try and find some real people made out of meat and bones that I ca squish.
[12:01] <Meatbag> Yeah
[12:02] <Ernz> mjunx: Thanks for your help
[12:02] <AlexC_> Ernz: you sure are too drink
[12:02] <mjunx> Meatbag, there are other distros that have floppy boot that lets you install from the network
[12:02] <mjunx> e.g., Debian
[12:02] <Ernz> AlexC: ILL tell you when I've had enough!"
[12:02] <Jarekb84> my sound is coming out a bit staticy when i turn the volume up (didn't happen under XP), using soundcard integrated in mobo, should I install audio drivers or should I update some codec?
[12:02] <Imperator5> Hello folks... I need help with a RAID mounting issue on 7.04... I have 3 RAID-1 disks, one for root, one for home, and one for swap. Just today, the home drive refuses to mount on bootup... the dstat says all the drives are there, but a "df -h / /home" does not show the home mount... and the home directories are not visible from the terminal
[12:02] <synjet> ashlon: try using the command on the desktop..
[12:02] <AlexC_> Ernz: haha,
[12:02] <Meatbag> Thanks, i'll have a look :D
[12:02] <ian_> after upgrading to feisty, my gnome fonts do not show up. everything is square boxes. fonts work in the terminal and in firefox, just not gnome and gnome-panels

[12:03] <synjet> ashlon: streamripper URL -d dir_destination
[12:03] <AlexC_> Ernz: =D

[12:06] <alphanumerik> anyone know how to reinstall grub after the OS has already been installed? mine seems to be corrupt/not working
[12:06] <ManoWarrior> hello.
[12:06] <Flannel> !grub | alphanumerik, first link
[12:06] <ubotu> alphanumerik, first link: 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
[12:06] <sethk> alphanumerik, there are two ways.  there is a grub-install script
[12:06] <Imperator5> did 7.04 change the fstab from drive names to UUIDs?
[12:06] <sethk> alphanumerik, you can also do it with the "grub" command line utility (same name as the package)
[12:07] <sethk> Imperator5, both have always been available
[12:07] <melonazo> hehe sorry, here again
[12:07] <alphanumerik> just type grub at the prompt?

[12:07] <materva> I have a weird issue with ubuntu and my laptop.  sometimes when I switch users the touch pad stops working.  On the same laptop I have one of those "Eraser Head" touch pointer,  this still works though.
[12:07] <deCon> whoa, configuring xorg.conf....mouse port ImPS/2 or ExplorerPS/2, i'm using a logitech wireless keyboard/mouse via USB
[12:07] <melonazo> someone was advising me....
[12:07] <CloFan> mjunx, still trying to get it from the internet.  "Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?"
[12:07] <Imperator5> so I can still use the drive names in the fstab?
[12:07] <ManoWarrior> I'm a FreeBSD user. There is possability to be forced to move to Linux. I want to know is it possible to install Ubuntu WITHOUT all the god damn GNOME stuff and "user friendly" gtk tools ?
[12:07] <jrib> ManoWarrior: do you want any wm?
[12:07] <lio0r> (01:04:38) lio0r: Apache tried to install this matter -sudo apt-get install apache2-

[12:07] <ManoWarrior> jrib: nothing except twm
[12:07] <sethk> ManoWarrior, no.  ubuntu's not the right distro for that.
[12:08] <stfxdick> I am in the dark here, can anyone help with my contrast?
[12:08] <ManoWarrior> I want to install E17 later
[12:08] <sethk> ManoWarrior, there is a text only install program, but it's on the alternate cd, so you have to download both the normal and the alternate
[12:08] <lio0r> (01:04:38) lio0r: Apache tried to install this matter -sudo apt-get install apache2-
[12:08] <lio0r> (01:04:38) lio0r: But I went wrong -E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. -
[12:08] <mjunx> brb peoples
[12:08] <ManoWarrior> but I want a base system just for a start
[12:08] <jonah> is there an easy way to install Pidgin?
[12:08] <sethk> ManoWarrior, well, you can download only the alternate, but I'm assuming you already downloaded the desktop
[12:08] <sethk> ManoWarrior, you can install just a base system easily.
[12:08] <melonazo> i maximize the window but I don't see a list wiht all of you...
[12:08] <macd> Anyone experienced wifi not being able to obtain a dhcp address? it is associated, the AP/router shows its dhcp request, and shows a address assigned
[12:08] <Raptor45> jonah, building from source isn't terribly difficult... or you could search for a deb
[12:09] <ManoWarrior> sethk: so its possible?
[12:09] <materva> I have a weird issue with ubuntu and my laptop.  sometimes when I switch users the touch pad stops working.  On the same laptop I have one of those "Eraser Head" touch pointer,  this still works though.
[12:09] <wulax> ManoWarrior: i would recommend Arch Linux for that
[12:09] <sethk> melonazo, I was trying to be funny; sorry.  There is a window at the right of the xchat window.  Look at the bar with the dots all the way to the right, grab it, and move it left.
[12:09] <jonah> raptor45: im new to linux, have no idea how to build :-/
[12:09] <ManoWarrior> wulax: I don't like Arch.
[12:09] <lio0r> Apache tried to install this matter -sudo apt-get install apache2-
[12:09] <lio0r>  But I went wrong -E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. -
[12:09] <Flannel> !repeat | lio0r
[12:09] <wulax> ManoWarrior: ah
[12:09] <ubotu> lio0r: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[12:09] <spiraldark> Well, I doubt this is the place to ask it... but, I have a usb flash drive (fat32) and one of the folders is currupted.. (on linux it appears as a file) and I wanted to know if Ubuntu could help me recover the folder, or if there was a linux tool for that.
[12:09] <synjet> jonah: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-pidgin-instant-messanger-in-ubuntu.html
[12:09] <sethk> ManoWarrior, yes; what's not great is _installing_ in text mode.  Using the normal installer to install a base no GUI system is fine
[12:09] <Raptor45> jonah, I could walk you through it I think
[12:09] <stfxdick> does anyone have a clue how to change the contrast in ubuntu... i am stuck in the dark here
[12:09] <stfxdick> its driving me nuts
[12:10] <jonah> think i found a deb..
[12:10] <melonazo> sethk, can we use different versions?
[12:10] <ManoWarrior> I'm a desktop users, like all of you, just don't want GNOME and I'm a console junkie, so I can use apt ;-)
[12:10] <Raptor45> jonah, that could be easier
[12:10] <mjunx> jonah, sudo apt-get build-dep gaim
[12:10] <Imperator5> do disk UUIDs change?
[12:10] <mjunx> lio0r, do what I said earlier
[12:10] <CloFan> Flannel: what do I do if when I'm trying to install the nvidia driver, it tries to get it from the internet when I have no connection?  I want it to get it from the CD
[12:10] <mjunx> Imperator5, no
[12:10] <ManoWarrior> sethk: so Its ok to donwload the Desktop and then install only the base.. good.
[12:10] <materva> I have a weird issue with ubuntu and my laptop.  sometimes when I switch users the touch pad stops working.  On the same laptop I have one of those "Eraser Head" touch pointer,  this still works though.
[12:10] <lio0r> mjunx=Apache tried to install this matter -sudo apt-get install apache2-
[12:10] <lio0r>  But I went wrong -E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. -
[12:10] <sethk> ManoWarrior, right.
[12:10] <melonazo> i just see a box in the bottom left corner that says "1273 users" and i can extend a list temporaly with the users....
[12:11] <sihkzz> How are disk UUIDs assigned/generated out of interest?
[12:11] <ManoWarrior> Ok. Thank you guys.
[12:11] <Imperator5> so if the fstab disagrees with the UUID for the disk, the disk won't boot, right?
[12:11] <mjunx> lio0r, run "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[12:11] <Imperator5> or mount
[12:11] <mjunx> and damn, why is konversation lagging so bad right now
[12:11] <Flannel> !uuid | sihkzz
[12:11] <ubotu> sihkzz: 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)
[12:11] <mjunx> Imperator5, the uuid doesn't change unless you reformat and stuff
[12:11] <lio0r> thanks

[12:14] <synjet> spiraldark: I dont see your q on scrolling up, could you repeat?
[12:14] <spiraldark> One of the folders in my flash drive is currupted and I wanted to know if there was a linux utility to fix it.
[12:14] <stfxdick> Is there even a way to change the contrast in ubuntu? or am i stuck in darkness forever?
[12:15] <Imperator5> ok, then.. what's the difference between the 'blkid' UUID and the 'mdadm' UUID?
[12:15] <synjet> spiraldark: fdisk
[12:15] <cappy> Question: To run Skype 1.4 alpha I need sigc++ 2.0 for i386 installed, when I install it, my system makes me run "apt-get -f install" which reinstalls sigc++ 2.0 amd64 but then the i386 version breaks and skype 1.4 no longer works. If I only try to remove the AMD64 version it will also remove these packages: aptitude libsigc++-2.0-0c2a tasksel tasksel-data ubuntu-minimal. Any suggestions?

[12:19] <rukuartic> kerik: I don't quite know directly, but try looking around for "Rosetta" on Ubuntu's website.
[12:20] <Leandra> anyone know how i can disable gdm/xserver onboot ie: so i'll go straight to a terminal once the system has loaded up?
[12:20] <rukuartic> kerik: Or maybe the "How to get involved" section
[12:20] <kerik> rukuartic, rosetta? - what is that?
[12:20] <predaeus> Imperator5, try googling it
[12:20] <southafrikanse> Beryl stop working and I don't know out to put it back again
[12:20] <dak> Leandra remove kdm or gdm
[12:20] <Leandra> dak: really? there's no setting i can configure?
[12:20] <materva> sihkzz:  Yes I have sometimes it will switch alright with no problems, but once it happens that account will not allow the mouse at all unless you reboot the computer
[12:20] <rukuartic> Leandra: Sure, You just need to remove  the symbolic links "SXX-gdm" from your /etc/rcX.d folders.
[12:20] <g0ow> anyone know how to enable restricted respitories in sources.list?
[12:21] <synjet> kerik: try to join ubuntu documentation team: http://doc.ubuntu.com/
[12:21] <Leandra> thanks rukuartic.
[12:21] <Leandra> i'll check that out. :)
[12:21] <zChris> anyone with Ati x800 and a working x800 that can send me their config file for xorg? :)
[12:21] <rukuartic> kerik: Rosetta... I can't quite give a detailed description :P I've never used it. Just heard of it.
[12:21] <southafrikanse> Is there any shortcut key that can reactivate Beryl?
[12:21] <jonah> brb

[12:21] <MSTK> does anyone know of a good CLI Calculator program?
[12:21] <kerik> rukuartic, well hey :) - I will try that! thanx mate
[12:22] <rukuartic> kerik: Here, this might be of help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam
[12:22] <alphanumerik> is Feisty worth upgrading to from its predecessor or is it basically the same?
[12:22] <AzulSolaris> Hey everyone, I re-installed Ubuntu and I'm hoping someone still remembers the answerto this problem: where can I find the solution to my ATI Radeon Xpress 200 card being stuck @ 640x480?
[12:22] <g0ow> pred: im getting Type 'http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org' is not known on line 4 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list...that is because im not enabling restricted resp. right?
[12:22] <rukuartic> kerik: No problem :)
[12:22] <predaeus> g0ow, nah that probably is because of a mistake in that file.
[12:22] <synjet> kerik: sorry, I thought you wanted to become a translator and not what you meant (an app for translating).. my wrong
[12:22] <Shelagh> MSTK: bc
[12:22] <rukuartic> alphanumerik: My upgrade didn't go so smoothly... I kinda wish I stuck with 6.10. But a lot of other useres have experienced clean smooth upgrades. So I might just be a weird offshoot.
[12:23] <AzulSolaris> I believe the answer is either @ the Ubuntu site or at one of the forum posts but I Can't seem to locate it. Anyone have this link?
[12:23] <Shelagh> MSTK: but its a calc language
[12:23] <kerik> synjet, no no!!!! you're absolutely right
[12:23] <alphanumerik> cool thx
[12:23] <MSTK> Shelag - ah, okay.  I've been using that one and I've been wondering if there's any more I should look into.
[12:23] <g0ow> how do i enable restricted repitories in my sources.list?
[12:23] <rukuartic> AzulSolaris: Off the top of my head, you might have luck editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:23] <kerik> synjet, I would like to become translator of the applications for linux
[12:23] <Leandra> removing gdm was a much easier option. ;)
[12:23] <synjet> kerik: oh, great! thanks for volunteering :)

[12:23] <alphanumerik> im running the autoupdate to get feisty - is there a way to "roll back" if i dont like it?
[12:24] <southafrikanse> Beryls not working why?
[12:24] <Shelagh> MSTK: I don't know of a curses one, sorry.
[12:24] <rukuartic> alphanumerik: No idea :P
[12:24] <myr> alphanumerik, i dont think so
[12:24] <kerik> synjet, :) well as a newb who abuse all you guys I have to repay in some way - and this is what I do best
[12:24] <alphanumerik> well i suppose its too late now then :)  wish me luck
[12:24] <rukuartic> MSTK: If you like regex... I think "expr" works
[12:24] <g0ow> MSTK: what do you mean by settings?
[12:24] <spiraldark> back... I am still just backing up the data on the flash drive (it was a 4gig one)
[12:24] <Adam314> Hello.  I'm looking for help installing my printer/multi-function
[12:25] <kerik> synjet, besides it's starting to peace me off that the Danish grammar in some apps is so bad as it is
[12:25] <kerik> :)
[12:25] <kahrytan> rukuartic: You should learn from others. Ugrading Ubuntu is a no-no
[12:25] <MSTK> g0ow - on the Synatpic Package Manager, click Settings on the menu baer.
[12:25] <spiraldark> but ... I was wondering... is a currupted folder just a partition table problem?
[12:25] <kahrytan> *upgrading
[12:25] <rukuartic> kahrytan: I loved upgrading from .06 to .10
[12:25] <myr> kahrytan, i upgraded without any problems
[12:25] <synjet> alphanumerik: you could remove the "feisty" part in the sources.list but that wont assure a total recall.. best is to try live CD for testing
[12:25] <rukuartic> kahrytan: Smoothest upgrade I've ever done. I'm not knocking Ubuntu folks, really.
[12:25] <synjet> kerik: hehe
[12:26] <kerik> synjet, but thanks for your help for now...guess I should go translate :)
[12:26] <jonah> sweet, i got window borders on my windows now :p
[12:26] <Adam314> Anyone have experience with printers?
[12:26] <alphanumerik> probably should have done that a while back - im halfway through the 3 hour download now  :(
[12:26] <kerik> Adam314, a little bit...
[12:26] <kahrytan> I've learned that not all the bugs in upgrading has been worked out
[12:27] <rukuartic> Adam314: Hee, there are two things people *hate* trying to get working here. Wireless networking, and printers.
[12:27] <lerch> Hi experts. How do I tell wine that my .iso mounted at /media/cdrom is actually a cdrom that by no means are missing?
[12:27] <Adam314> I have a brother MFC-7220.  When i plugged it in, the auto-detection came up.  My printer was not listed.
[12:27] <southafrikanse> Can anyone help me? I have a Beryl problem
[12:27] <justme2> Is there an Ubuntu replacement for Quicken?
[12:27] <Adam314> I did a google search, and found this page: http://forums.freestandards.org/read.php?24,338,338,quote=1
[12:27] <synjet> alphanumerik: it helps to reduce damage if you have a separate /home partition.. reinstalling the OS (freshly) is just getting the apps.. customization and data is retained
[12:28] <kerik> alphanumerik, I have just upgraded a week back...Feisty is way better on my machine than any other distro...
[12:28] <predaeus> southafrikanse, probably #ubuntu-effects is a better place to ask
[12:28] <kahrytan> lerch: Ask the #wine experts.
[12:28] <ward_> i just installed ubuntu 7.04 on my laptop, everything works fine except for my laptop screen, any suggestions please?
[12:28] <jonah> ehm, whats the key shortcuts for Desktop Effects?
[12:28] <rukuartic> Adam314: I just went around and googled "MFC-7220 linux". Here's what I got http://solutions.brother.com/linux/sol/printer/linux/cups_drivers.html
[12:28] <synjet> justme2: gnucash?
[12:28] <mjr> justme2, there are applications in the same category. You might see eg. if gnucash will fill your needs.
[12:28] <ward_> (its an nvidia card)
[12:28] <lerch> kahrytan: Ah, good one, thanks
[12:28] <rukuartic> Adam314: You'll want the drivers for "Debian"
[12:28] <dead1ock> yo
[12:28] <UstasW> sup
[12:28] <_atomic> Hello
[12:28] <kahrytan> lerch: I'll imagine you need to configure wine to point to the mounted iso.
[12:28] <jonah> ward_: u are lucky, i can't even install it on my laptop..
[12:29] <Adam314> rukuartic: i'm going there now.  I googled "ubuntu MFC 7220" and that page didn't come up.... should have used linux instead of ubuntu
[12:29] <alphanumerik> well so far i havent had any hangups - upgrading from edgy seems to be chugging along fine so far
[12:29] <kerik> Adam314, have you installed CUPS?
[12:29] <justme2> Can Gnucash handle Quicken data / OFX?
[12:29] <ward_> jonah: why not? :s
[12:29] <dead1ock> you tell me
[12:29] <josh__>   anyone know anything about the availablity of drivers for creative labs soundblaster X-FI series cards?
[12:29] <alphanumerik> im thinking im gonna jump right in and try beryl if i get the install working correctly
[12:29] <UstasW> fun
[12:29] <_atomic> I'll find out
[12:30] <ward_> jonah: i even have XGL running smoothly on my old lappy
[12:30] <strabes> josh__: http://opensource.creative.com/
[12:30] <josh__> ty
[12:30] <Imperator5> how do I check what ubuntu is mounting at bootup?
[12:30] <dettoaltrimenti_> how do I change the icon for a program to my panel?
[12:30] <kerik> alphanumerik, may I recommend Compiz in stead?
[12:30] <ward_> compiz renders way faster i noticed
[12:30] <alphanumerik> heard of it but never acutally seen it
[12:30] <synjet> strabes: thanks man.. I never knew it existed!
[12:30] <kitche> Imperator5: look at /etc/fstab
[12:30] <predaeus> Imperator5, mount
[12:30] <alphanumerik> whats the website for it?
[12:30] <jonah> ward_: Its a small fujitsu siemens Amilo.. some odd gfx i guess. it wont start X up
[12:31] <alphanumerik> or where can i get some screenshots?
[12:31] <Adam314> kerik: Yes.  I've printed successfully using an HP-Deskjet-930C.
[12:31] <kitche> alphanumerik: compiz.net and beryl will be compiz in a month or so, so you iwll be using it anyways
[12:31] <ward_> jonah: did u try connecting a external screen to your lappy before booting it?
[12:31] <rukuartic> dettoaltrimenti_: You should be able to right click it, and hit properties.
[12:31] <Imperator5> fstab has the drive listed, but it's not mounting at bootup... when I manually mount it, it mounts correctly... any ideas why?
[12:31] <kerik> alphanumerik, actually dont know the webside, but I know it is partly installed in Ubuntu Feisty as standard...you need to install compiz-manager however...
[12:31] <philipsmith> have a small home network that includes 2 Ubuntu machines on it, that I'll call "A" and "B". I want to "log into" "B" from "A" and when I do that I want to control all of the functions that "B" can do from "A." When I use terminal server, I put the IP address in the computer box, use VNC, and the put the username in the user name box. It doesn't work. What shoud I do?
[12:31] <jonah> ward_: no, maybe i try that
[12:31] <alphanumerik> sweet thx!  - btw is it an automatic install or at least as easy to install as ubuntu was?
[12:32] <kerik> Adam314, hmmm...then I'm sorry, but dont' know...
[12:32] <jordan> hey guys is there a way to send a message to another ubuntu computer on my network
[12:32] <ward_> jonah: most likely your laptop screen is the problem, same problem as i'm having
[12:32] <kerik> alphanumerik, I'm quite newb to it...and I made it work...actually think I installed it from Synaptics...
[12:32] <synjet> philipsmith: by default, I guess logging in from other comp is disabled..
[12:32] <predaeus> Compiz and Beryl are going to be merged again soon http://forum.compiz.org/viewtopic.php?t=761
[12:32] <deCon> i have finally isolated what is going on between my audio issues and video...for some reason... amarok screws up all video/audio of embedded objects in firefox.....can someone help me?
[12:33] <philipsmith> synjet: How do I change that?
[12:33] <jonah> ward_: Maybe, but i could install 6.10 without problems, just couldn't figure out how to make a real driver for it
[12:33] <alphanumerik> thx for the input kerik - gonna go google it and see what i can find out - again thx
[12:33] <kerik> alphanumerik, I tried Beryl, but didn't like it as I thought it was too complicated...
[12:33] <deCon> not only that, but after i close amarok, until i restart x, it continues to not work, but if i restart x and then view youtube...it works
[12:33] <synjet> philipsmith: goto system-->admin-->login-window, and then remote tab.. enable remote login
[12:33] <ward_> jonah: but here x boots fine, only i dont see anything on laptop screen, then when i boot again with external monitor it looks fine (on the external, nothing on my laptop screen)
[12:33] <kerik> alphanumerik, no problem mate! :)
[12:33] <Imperator5> fstab has the drive listed, but it's not mounting at bootup... when I manually mount it, it mounts correctly... any ideas why?
[12:33] <philipsmith> synjet: ok, i'll try.
[12:33] <alphanumerik> i was using beryl on the sabayon dvd disk and it was pretty cool
[12:33] <predaeus> jordan, what type of message?
[12:33] <ward_> i just installed ubuntu 7.04 on my laptop, everything works fine except for my laptop screen, any suggestions please? I'm using a nvidia card
[12:34] <jonah> ward_: U didnt by accident press the key to switch to external view only?
[12:34] <nexous> Can I have XFCE also? It would install as a different session right?
[12:34] <alphanumerik> also saw a pc running sabayon on google video and it looked pretty intense
[12:34] <Adam314> It looks like the brother site has some info.  My mistake was i was searching using "ubuntu" as a keyword when i should have used "linux"
[12:34] <kerik> alphanumerik, it is very neat I just found it too heavy (I have a small video card...intel...) but compiz works like a breeze and can do what I need...
[12:34] <jordan> predaeus: I dunno, like make a message pop up on a user's desktop?
[12:34] <alphanumerik> but i suppose if beryl and compiz is going to merge i might as well go for the end result and get compiz
[12:34] <alphanumerik> yeah im running intel too
[12:34] <ward_> jonah: nope lol its normal for my laptop to take external screen when its plugged in when it boots
[12:35] <jonah> ok
[12:35] <kerik> alphanumerik, :) that might be right:)
[12:35] <ward_> jonah: its made for if your screen breakes :-)
[12:35] <predaeus> jordan, not sure what you are trying to achieve, you could just use an Instant Messenger for that
[12:35] <peterka> Hi! I have problem with PS/2 mouse - it does't move. I try change "ImPS/2" to "Auto" but not work.
[12:35] <jonah> clever :(
[12:35] <jonah> :)
[12:35] <drew> peterka: which mouse is it?
[12:35] <jordan> predaeus: true, but I want to do it as more of a prank, like scare someone (its on my home network so it's not malicious)
[12:35] <jonah> ehm, whats the key shortcuts for Desktop Effects? How do i get the cube going?
[12:35] <kerik> alphanumerik, I have a i830 and I can do the cube effect, wobbly windows and all that with no problems...using compiz that is...it lacked a lot with beryl
[12:36] <peterka> drew: ps/2
[12:36] <ward_> ubuntu 7.04 doesnt work on laptop screen, any suggestions (external screen = fine)
[12:36] <predaeus> jordan, you would need root or administrator rights on the remote machine for that or a user account
[12:36] <Imperator5> fstab has the drive listed, but it's not mounting at bootup... when I manually mount it, it mounts correctly... any ideas why?
[12:36] <kerik> peterka, have you tried to change it to explorer?
[12:36] <drew> peterka: i mean brand name?
[12:36] <nexous> Conky starts up on startup, but as soon as windows manager loads, it isn't displayed. Any ideas?
[12:36] <jordan> predaeus: I can SSH to a admin account
[12:37] <Adam314> Now a new question to anyone: I started off with Edgy Eft (6.10).  If I install all of the software updates (using the orange icon at top right) is that going to upgrade me to Feisty Fawn (7.04)?
[12:37] <peterka> drew:Genius Easy mouse Pro
[12:37] <DanaG> oh, for Intel graphics: try the xorg 'intel' driver package.
[12:37] <peterka> drew:Made in China:P
[12:37] <kerik> Adam314, not unless you ask for it...
[12:37] <predaeus> jordan, ok, unfortunately I do not know how to do that though. I think you would have to somehow specify the xserver the program should use so it pops up in the session of another user.
[12:38] <drew> peterka: o boy, sec let me see if i can find anything on it..
[12:38] <jordan> predaeus: lol ok thanks for your help man, no big deal
[12:38] <RobbieCrash> How can I fix this error? http://pastebin.ca/468144 I finally got old nvidia drivers installed and working. but cannot get glx going. I am on edgy, with a geforce 7600 with nvidia 1.0-8776 drivers installed.
[12:38] <peterka> drew:I heard that is new kernel foult
[12:38] <kerik> DanaG, xorg is the best driver for intel video?
[12:38] <Adam314> kerik:  now i feel stupid... i didn't even notice the "upgrade" button before.  Anything I should be aware of before upgrading?
[12:39] <RobbieCrash> Additionally, if I upgrade to Feisty, will it automatically update my drivers to the new ones that kill my xorg?
[12:39] <blockcipher> Adam314, backup /home dir before continuing .. also some config files you modified manually . .just in case.  I didn't do either and I was fine lol
[12:39] <Imperator5> ok, fstab has the drive listed, but it's not mounting at bootup... when I manually mount it, it mounts correctly... any ideas why it's not mounting at bootup?
[12:39] <kerik> Adam314, well...I tried upgrading, but didn't work....however I had a nautilus issue upon updating to edgy so I fresh installed...now it works out of the box..
[12:39] <predaeus> Imperator5, did you check the logs and dmesg?
[12:39] <philipsmith> synjet: Didn't work. There were alot of choices to the enable remote login
[12:40] <predaeus> Imperator5, see /var/log/syslog too
[12:40] <kerik> Adam314, but I have heard the upgrade should work ok though...
[12:40] <ward_> ubuntu 7.04 doesnt work on laptop screen, any suggestions? (external screen = fine) Is there another channel where i can go to?
[12:40] <Imperator5> predaeus: which logs?
[12:40] <predaeus> Imperator5, and run dmesg in a terminal for bootup info
[12:40] <drew> peterka: lol i dont see anything on this, how bout just buy a usb mouse? can pick an optical up for like 10$ now
[12:40] <Adam314> my /home is backuped regularly.... I think i'll give it a try and hope for the best.
[12:40] <RobbieCrash> ward_ try setting your resolution and refresh rate differently and trying those on your laptop screen
[12:40] <kerik> Adam314, think you should...as long as you have the backup you're good to go :)
[12:41] <blockcipher> Adam314, go for it!
[12:41] <ward_> RobbieCrash: i'll try that
[12:41] <deCon> I'm having some sound and video issues that I just can't seem to shake, can anyone help me figure out why? My browser plugins work, XXMS doesn't detect the card, Amarok works fine, but after running it...it won't allow sound in firefox anymore.. Ugh, its being quite annoying. Furthermore, video seems to be screwed if its WMV or Quicktime. And, i tried a FFmpeg installation but when i ran checkinstall, it failed
[12:41] <rubberducky> Hello
[12:41] <rubberducky> Can someone help me get my sound to work on ubuntu?
[12:41] <ward_> RobbieCrash: but i need to reboot for that every time lol
[12:41] <kerik> Adam314, that backup...do you do that manually or is it possible to make it auto?
[12:41] <rubberducky> I've been at this for 3 days :/
[12:41] <peterka> drew:ok
[12:42] <RobbieCrash> !sound rubberducky
[12:42] <jonah> any way to change hotkeys for Desktop Effects?
[12:42] <RobbieCrash> !sound | rubberducky
[12:42] <ubotu> rubberducky: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[12:42] <rubberducky> I did all that already
[12:42] <rubberducky> Was here yesterday
[12:43] <Anow2> whats the support IRC?
[12:43] <predaeus> rubberducky, did you check alsamixer settings and also if some of those nasty switches are on/off that totally kill sound ouput
[12:43] <Adam314> the backup happens automatically, but it is just a script.  I could run it at anytime
[12:43] <rubberducky> Well
[12:43] <RobbieCrash> ward_ why do you have to reboot?
[12:43] <Anow2> 0,o
[12:43] <rubberducky> My sound worked a while ago with the motherboard sound car and regular speakers
[12:43] <AlberTUX> how do i add multiple ip addresses to be configured on boot?
[12:43] <ward_> RobbieCrash: i'm sure the resolution is fine, but the frequency is 50Hz and i can only chenge it to 51Hz, how can i get more refresh rates to set?
[12:43] <kerik> Adam314, where did you get that script?
[12:43] <rubberducky> But now I got the bose companion 5 usb speakers and no go with sound
[12:44] <Anow2> USB drivers arent installed then lol
[12:44] <ward_> RobbieCrash: my laptop needs to boot with external screen plugged in, else it uses its own screen
[12:44] <Anow2> for speakers atleast 0,o
[12:44] <Anow2> i had the same problem
[12:44] <AlberTUX> how do i add multiple ip addresses to be configured on boot?
[12:44] <rubberducky> What do I do?
[12:44] <rubberducky> Which drivers to I install?
[12:44] <Anow2> IDK, i had the same problem lol
[12:44] <RobbieCrash> ward_ you need to edit your Xorg.conf file to have additional refresh rates
[12:44] <DanaG> Hmm, I wonder if I should try grub2 just for the heck of it.
[12:44] <ward_> RobbieCrash: ok i'll go see but i thought they were allready there
[12:44] <southafrikanse> I don't have aMule working
[12:44] <southafrikanse> Cannot connect
[12:45] <mon^rch> DanaG: there's no difference :/
[12:45] <rubberducky> Anow2: howd you fix it?
[12:45] <Anow2> Guys, when I am on ubuntu, it just freezes, after about 10 mins of not doing anything, when it does nothing responds, any ideas
[12:45] <Anow2> I didnt fix it lol
[12:45] <Anow2> i used a different set of headphones =] 
[12:45] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: install firestarter and use the policy editor to open amules ports ;)
[12:45] <GrueTamer> Anow2: is your screensaver enabled?
[12:45] <Anow2> no
[12:46] <GrueTamer> hmm
[12:46] <RobbieCrash> Anow2 does your mouse still move?
[12:46] <Adam314> I wrote it in perl.
[12:46] <Anow2> I thought thats what it was at first, but it did it again after i disabled
[12:46] <GrueTamer> is an internet browser running when it crashes?
[12:46] <kerik> Anow2, lol....hardly the solution :)
[12:46] <Anow2> nope it doesnt
[12:46] <spiraldark> I finally ran that fsck
[12:46] <Imperator5> predaeus: the dmesg and syslog show the same thing.. all of the RAID disks were binded and set active, but only one of the two drives was mounted... no errors were shown as far as I can tell
[12:46] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: Thank you
[12:46] <Anow2> brb
[12:46] <spiraldark> and instead of getting my currupted data....
[12:46] <jonah> argh, another problem.. my volume slider is not working.. the volume keeps going at full blast.. even though the slider is moving, nothing happens
[12:46] <rubberducky> Does anyone know how to use usb speakers in ubuntu?
[12:46] <spiraldark> it deleted the folder.
[12:46] <kerik> Adam314, ok :) maybe I should begin learning that kinda stuff... :)
[12:46] <GrueTamer> see if it wont crash without an internet browser running, if its crashed when one is
[12:46] <predaeus> mon^rch, by default all ports should be open
[12:46] <Anow2> bk
[12:46] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: the ports you want open are 4662 and 4672
[12:47] <AzulSolaris> Anyone know off the top of their head where the solution to the Radeon Xpress 200 video card resolution not changing would be?
[12:47] <jbinder> hi
[12:47] <Adam314> I didn't like perl at first, but after a little usage - i really like it.
[12:47] <GrueTamer> hi jbinder
[12:47] <spiraldark> So... how do I get the data back?
[12:47] <kerik> Adam314, is it easy to learn?
[12:47] <mon^rch> predaeus: um, no...
[12:47] <predaeus> Imperator5, probably somehting with your RAID then, sorry no experience with that
[12:47] <Anow2> no a browser wasnt
[12:47] <Shelagh> MSTK: Still on the lookout for cli calcs? orpie, qalc, wcalc look like good contenders.
[12:47] <martman> quick question - why are vmlinuz and initrd in / and not /boot ?
[12:47] <rubberducky> Looking for help getting a bose usb speaker set to work ubuntu...anyone up for the challenge :D
[12:47] <GrueTamer> Anow2: well, then youre not connected to another person whos system crashes
[12:47] <GrueTamer> lets see...
[12:48] <creamers> how do i set up the desktop
[12:48] <spiraldark> Soo.... what do I do?
[12:48] <Adam314> I wanted the backup to just sync one folder to another: copy any new/changed files, delete any deleted files.  No compression.  Not 1 big file
[12:48] <predaeus> Imperator5, if you have a RAID that mirrors then it would be reasonable to mount only 1 drive I think
[12:48] <GrueTamer> Anow2: whats your ram usage? (give a total ram amount too)
[12:48] <mneptok> Adam314: rsync
[12:48] <Adam314> I didn't find one that does this, so i wrote it myself.
[12:48] <creamers> need  help
[12:48] <Anow2> emm
[12:48] <Anow2> im on windows right now, lol
[12:48] <kerik> Adam314, sounds usefull
[12:48] <GrueTamer> creamers: what do you mean by "set up the desktop"?
[12:48] <Anow2> but i have a total of 2gigs of ram
[12:48] <TeslaDave> Need Help:  Need a flash player or flash plugin for Ubuntu for an X64 platform
[12:48] <creamers> yes i do
[12:48] <Anow2> and its not near max
[12:49] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: I installed firestarter but where is it?
[12:49] <GrueTamer> well, that...kinda helps
[12:49] <spiraldark> Anyone going to help me?
[12:49] <kitche> TeslaDave: there isn't one unless you want to setup nspluginwrapper
[12:49] <Slart> TeslaDave: you can run the standalone flash viewer in 64-bit
[12:49] <kerik> Adam314, so it simply adds the latest file to the backup dir and deletes the old one?
[12:49] <AzulSolaris> Dave, I think you're going to have to install the 32 bit version, mate.
[12:49] <creamers> how would i set up the desktop now
[12:49] <GrueTamer> Anow2: try running ubuntu in recovery mode
[12:49] <Slart> TeslaDave: or.. it might be the 32-bit one.. but it still runs on the 64-bit system
[12:49] <Anow2> k
[12:49] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: system-->administration-->
[12:49] <GrueTamer> and if you have compiz on, turn it off
[12:49] <Anow2> let me save my paper lol
[12:49] <GrueTamer> compiz or beryl
[12:49] <ward_> RobbieCrash: there are no frequencies set that i can find :-S
[12:49] <Imperator5> predaeus: two physcial drives broken into 6 partitions raid'ed into 3 drives, one for /, one for /home, one for swap.... the swap and / mount fine, the /home is not
[12:50] <TeslaDave> Slart I want to be able to view flash websites
[12:50] <Anow2> BRB
[12:50] <creamers> any body know hwo to set up the desktop on server edition
[12:50] <spiraldark> Ok, how do I recover the folder?
[12:50] <thetoasted> Hmmm... Is this where I should go to ask some general questions about FGLRX problems?
[12:50] <rubberducky> Anyone know how to setup usb speakers for ubuntu?
[12:50] <kitche> creamers: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[12:50] <Adam314> Yes.  Instead of comparing the dest files to the source files, it keeps a list of what it copied.  It then looks at the source (eg: /home) and compares that to it's file.  This makes for less traffic (the destination is on anohter computer across a network)
[12:50] <TeslaDave> Slart:  When i try to install the 32bit one it says does not support my architecture
[12:50] <GrueTamer> creamers: try sudo apt-get install gnome (i think its gnome, never got gnome from apt before)
[12:50] <Slart> TeslaDave: install a 32bit version of firefox.. google for firefox32
[12:51] <predaeus> Imperator5, hm sorry no idea. just keep asking or come back later when others are online that might know.
[12:51] <GrueTamer> creamers: but if you need speed, then try icewm instead of gnome
[12:51] <kerik> Adam314, finally something very useful...and it even sounds like it works :)
[12:51] <Imperator5> predaeus: ty :)
[12:51] <RichF> Wow, hello all
[12:51] <Slart> TeslaDave: yup.. you can't install the 32-bit plugin for a 64-bit firefox..
[12:51] <spiraldark> Ok.. I am now back to where I started.... I have a folder that's currupted on my flash drive
[12:51] <creamers> huh i have three different comands which one dop i run
[12:51] <Adam314> Unless i'm wrong, rsync compares the actual files... and since the backup dir is on anohter computer, it has to copy the file over before it can check if it's changed
[12:52] <creamers> i need the top prefoemnce server
[12:52] <d4n1el> hi.. the repository for brazil is off?
[12:52] <GrueTamer> creamers: sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[12:52] <Slart> TeslaDave: but if you get a 32-bit firefox you can get 32-bit flash, 32-bit java etc and you'll have a full working 32bit browser going
[12:52] <GrueTamer> i hope fluxbox is fast enough for you
[12:52] <Adam314> if you have programming experience, perl is not that hard to learn.
[12:52] <Flannel> !chroot | TeslaDave
[12:52] <ubotu> TeslaDave: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[12:52] <shawn34> anyone know the address for the minimal install cd's? i can't find it on ubuntu.com
[12:52] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: Now what? Where can I open my ports?
[12:52] <Flannel> !minimal | shawn34
[12:52] <ubotu> shawn34: 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
[12:52] <kerik> Adam314, sounds cool...
[12:52] <vorbote> Adam314: no, rsync compares chunk checksums
[12:52] <thetoasted> When I enable the FGLRX restricted driver for my ATI Video card, I get random freezes, which only hard restarts can get me out of. Where should I start to address the problem?
[12:52] <morodock> creamers: why would you really want an xwindow system on a server at all?
[12:52] <creamers> fluxbox gives me the desktop to right
[12:52] <Adam314> it has a few things that are quite different from any other language I've used though (hash, regex)
[12:53] <kerik> Adam314, guess I'll find some info about that:)
[12:53] <GrueTamer> creamers: yes, but its very minimal
[12:53] <GrueTamer> no icons
[12:53] <HeadDown> how to enable networking on nvidia 680i?
[12:53] <creamers> what im runniong the server edition
[12:53] <GrueTamer> no "star" bar, so to say
[12:53] <GrueTamer> start*
[12:53] <Adam314> vorbote: how does it get the chunk checksum though?  eg: i'm backing up /home   to   /mnt/pc2/backup.
[12:53] <creamers> ok heres what i need then
[12:53] <vorbote> TeslaDave: there is a package, similar to ndiswrapper, to use the 32-bit flash plugin under x86_64 systems (Can't remember the name. thouch)
[12:54] <creamers> i need multiple sites so whick one would i run with best preformance
[12:54] <shaggy1> hi got a stupid question on installing
[12:54] <kerik> Adam314, ok...well guess thats a fact for most prog languages...always some stuff that is handled differently..
[12:54] <creamers> and i want internet browser in it to
[12:54] <GrueTamer> creamers: it may be fastest to run no desktop at all
[12:54] <vorbote> Adam314: Each rsync acts both as a client and a server, they exchange checksum lists over the network
[12:54] <GrueTamer> do you have X?
[12:54] <kerik> Adam314, I was thinking of starting to learn Java...
[12:54] <creamers> i know desktop is pretty fast when i connect to the serverf
[12:54] <spiraldark> Ok, one more time, is there any FAT32 corrupted folder recovery software for linux?
[12:54] <spiraldark> *that's free
[12:55] <GrueTamer> creamers: if you have X installed, then do sudo apt-get install lynx, thats an internet browser for no desktop environment
[12:55] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: open firestarter, click the policy tab, click in the bottom pane, then click add rule, then type in the port box 4662 (the id should change to edonkey)
[12:55] <kerik> Adam314, seems to make sense since I don't know C yet, and it should be easier to learn..any oppinions?
[12:55] <Adam314> sorry... other computer is running windows2000, they connect with samba.  verbote: does it still work this way, or does other computer have to be linux
[12:55] <GrueTamer> i dont think server machines should run desktops
[12:55] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: Done
[12:55] <vorbote> Adam314: In fact it is a very clever algorithm that does finger printing. You can use pure checksum digests (md5, I think) but that's more CPU intensive.
[12:55] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: But it still ins't connecting
[12:55] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: then do it again using port 4672 and give it a name "kad"
[12:55] <RichF> nspluginwrapper will get flash working in amd64
[12:55] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: ok
[12:55] <TeslaDave> SO what is Chroot then is it like a virtual machine
[12:55] <shawn34> !install
[12:55] <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
[12:56] <creamers> i tired desktop and i dont have desktop package for some reson
[12:56] <vorbote> Adam314: if you are copying files from the remote to the local, you are certainly copying the files first.
[12:56] <morodock> spiraldark: there are several livecd distros that are free
[12:56] <Adam314> definetly easier to learn than C.  you don't have to manage memory yourself.   this makes it much easier
[12:56] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: Now what?
[12:56] <morodock> that should get the job done
[12:56] <Eleaf> Is it possible to pipe audio from one application to another before the soundcard with pulseaudio?  For example, send the sound from one application to an equalizer using pulseaudio.
[12:56] <daaaman64> Personally I found it easier to just force firefox32
[12:56] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: click the apply policy button?
[12:56] <spiraldark> Can anyone help?
[12:57] <morodock> spiraldark: http://www.frozentech.com/content/livecd.php
[12:57] <kerik> Adam314, yeah that was my thought...as a programming newb I don't wanna start out by choking in C...it should be fairly hard I have been told...
[12:57] <predaeus> !anyone > spiraldark
[12:57] <|Buck|> maybe someone could help me with this: When I go to a file properties, and click on 'Change' to modify the default Open With program, nothing happens
[12:57] <creamers> i run fluxbox command now how do i get to desktop
[12:57] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: Done. Now what?
[12:57] <anow> ok bk
[12:57] <predaeus> spiraldark, oh sorry, did not see your question up there
[12:57] <Adam314> vorbote: the local computer is ubuntu, and I want to back it up to a windows 2000.  The backup script is running on the ubuntu computer.  Would rsync work for this?
[12:58] <kerik> Adam314, though java should be a little more demanding cause of the lack of mem managing..
[12:58] <predaeus> spiraldark, don't know of one though sry.
[12:58] <spiraldark> I have to go now... I will ask later..
[12:58] <anow> who was helping me earlier?
[12:58] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: connect amule... and if you STILL can't connect... then I can nop longe hel;p you
[12:58] <mike> Hi all, I am brand new to ubuntu, and I screwed something up on the installation with my MacBook, I was wondering if anyone could refer me to a good chat room for that
[12:58] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: Should I change any configurations on my router?
[12:58] <GrueTamer> creamers: give me a second....
[12:58] <Slart> mike: I think here is as good as any
[12:59] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: It still isn't connectig
[12:59] <vorbote> Adam314: I'd set up the rsync server in ubuntu and run rsync under cygwin in the w2k box to bring the files over. That would be much efficient (and fast)
[12:59] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: a haha
[12:59] <darksoule> hello. I have no sound. My card is a Soundblaster Live, I have alsa but can't figure out how to use it. I don't know what to do.
[12:59] <thetoasted> When I enable the FGLRX driver for my ATI card, I get random freezes, where the computer becomes unresponsive, and only way to regain control is a physical restart. Are there any threads that address this problem?
[12:59] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: I think that means yes
[12:59] <ayande> anyone that knows were i can check if my mailports are open?
[12:59] <GrueTamer> really, i don't know how minimal your install is, creamers, so its hard to help you
[12:59] <GrueTamer> but, you can try...
[12:59] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: emule has a nice faq on configuring routers on their site
[12:59] <jonah> my volume slider is not working.. the volume keeps going at full blast.. even though the slider is moving, nothing happens
[12:59] <TeslaDave> Thanks Everyone
[12:59] <Adam314> I don't know java, but i think it is more like C.  there are many modules for perl written that make things that would normally be a long program only a few lines
[12:59] <mike> @ Slart: Well, I installed ubuntu, and now I can't boot into Mac OS X
[12:59] <GrueTamer> sudo apt-get install xorg xterm wdm menu dillo
[12:59] <GrueTamer> and then
[12:59] <southafrikanse> ok
[01:00] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: Thank you
[01:00] <thetoasted> When I enable the FGLRX driver for my ATI card, I get random freezes, where the computer becomes unresponsive, and only way to regain control is a physical restart. Are there any threads that address this problem?
[01:00] <mukansamonkey> Hello, I'm having trouble getting my MacPro to recognize my Ubuntu box through NTFS. Any experts with that here?
[01:00] <GrueTamer> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:00] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: np... you'l still need those ports open from within linux too
[01:00] <GrueTamer> and the last thing, sudo /etc/init.d/wdm start
[01:00] <GrueTamer> got that creamers?
[01:00] <morodock> mike: did you install with bootcamp?
[01:00] <darksoule> anyone who is willing to help get my sound working
[01:00] <GrueTamer> i *think* thatll work
[01:00] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: OK
[01:00] <Adam314> vorbote: so i start rsync server on ubuntu, then install a cygwin rsync on the windows computer.  Then i use windows computer to run the rsync program?
[01:00] <GrueTamer> darksoule: ill try help
[01:00] <Slart> mike: you've probably done something to your boot record... if it was a windows installation instead of a mac os installation I might have been able to help you.. ask the room.. someone is bound to be able to help you
[01:00] <mike> morodock: yep
[01:00] <anow> Grue
[01:01] <anow> Im back
[01:01] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: but if you already added them to firestarters policy... you'll be good
[01:01] <jonah> jonah@jonah-desktop:~$ apt-get update
[01:01] <jonah> ead: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[01:01] <jonah> ead: Unable to lock the list directory
[01:01] <jonah>  <- whats the problem here?
[01:01] <anow> GrueTamer:
[01:01] <GrueTamer> hi anow
[01:01] <anow> hey lol
[01:01] <vorbote> Adam314: correct
[01:01] <predaeus> mon^rch, unless you change firewall settings to begin with, all ports are open in linux. iptables handles firewall settings and on a fresh install there are no iptables rules set.
[01:01] <anow> nothing happened when i opened in recovery
[01:01] <gonnaeatthat> hey is there a task list i can access like windows? vlc media player is playing and cant turn it off
[01:01] <morodock> mike: so what went wrong? is it just booting directly to linux without giving you the option?
[01:01] <creamers> ok i ran fluxbox and desktop
[01:01] <southafrikanse> mon^rch: eMule uses the same ports as aMUle?
[01:01] <creamers> how lonmg dous iot takes to install desktop
[01:01] <mike> Yep, thats the problem
[01:01] <GrueTamer> anow: did it just bring up a terminal?
[01:01] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: yes
[01:01] <Adam314> vorbote: thanks... i'll look into that.
[01:01] <anow> ya
[01:01] <vorbote> Adam314: You can set up the rsync server in such a way that it only listens in the LAN behind your NAT, so it ican be sage.
[01:01] <RichF> the toasted: what card you have?
[01:01] <vorbote> s/sage/dafe/
[01:02] <GrueTamer> youre supposed to type startx there
[01:02] <vorbote> sage :-P
[01:02] <GrueTamer> but i doubt that you would know that
[01:02] <mon^rch> southafrikanse: but you can make amule use whatever port you want
[01:02] <vorbote> safe :-P
[01:02] <anow> lol...
[01:02] <GrueTamer> << might not be smart, but spent a lot of time without a desktop
[01:02] <anow> u want me to go back?
[01:02] <mike> Even when I hold down the option key, it only gives me the option to boot into "Windows" (which is really ubuntu)
[01:02] <steventra> hi, how can I tell which program is accessing my hard drive?
[01:02] <GrueTamer> anow: yeah
[01:02] <Adam314> vorbote: I tell it which IPs to listen to?  What do I need to do for that (or will it be obvious once i read the man pages)?
[01:02] <anow> k
[01:02] <shawn34> Can anyone help me out with this? : "pls: Unable to initialize RAPI: An unspecified failure has occurred"
[01:02] <darksoule> I have tried using the sound under system preferences and nothing. I know I have alsa but i can't remember how to use it.
[01:03] <GrueTamer> darksoule: type alsamixer in the terminal
[01:03] <morodock> one sec, lemme check my mac
[01:03] <GrueTamer> and screw around with stuff in there
[01:03] <mike> Morodock: Thanks so much for the help!
[01:03] <gonnaeatthat> anyone know a way to find an application running in the background? vlc media player disappeared and need to shut it off
[01:03] <Wriest> can someone help
[01:03] <sethk> gonnaeatthat, ps aux
[01:03] <GrueTamer> gonnaeatthat: in the terminal, type top
[01:03] <GrueTamer> and hit ctrl+M (notice the caps)
[01:03] <mon^rch> predaeus: I'm not a firewall expert... I just know how to make my amule work ;)
[01:04] <arentoine> Wriest : describe your problem
[01:04] <zedfloyd> how do i navigate to a specific directory in the terminal?
[01:04] <cafuego> gonnaeatthat: The easy (lazy) was is 'killall vlc'
[01:04] <cafuego> way
[01:04] <GrueTamer> then, hit q, to quit out, and type "kill <the PID number for vlc>"
[01:04] <Wriest> I have xubuntu  and I don't know how to get to my sound settings
[01:04] <GrueTamer> zedfloyd: cd <directory>
[01:04] <gonnaeatthat> lol no prcess killed
[01:05] <predaeus> mon^rch, I've just opened router ports for that, you should not need to change anything else unless you are running some adsl tunneling modem setup that includes iptables rules that would need to be tweaked
[01:05] <predaeus> or something like that
[01:05] <gonnaeatthat> stupid vlc player
[01:05] <morodock> mike:  have you already checked /etc/yaboot ?
[01:05] <arentoine> Wriest : you don't have sound at all ?
[01:05] <GrueTamer> gonnaeatthat: i think you need the PID number, thats why you type "top" in the terminal, and find the PID number for vlc, then hit q to quit, and then type "kill <that PID number>"
[01:05] <GrueTamer> but if you already tried that, then i dunno
[01:05] <mike> No, what's that, sorry, I'm super new to linux
[01:06] <zedfloyd> trying to go to /install_flash_player_9_linux/
[01:06] <morodock> mike: you need to edit /etc/yaboot.conf
[01:06] <gonnaeatthat> got it, stupid thing was named something completely different
[01:06] <Wriest> arentoine: no
[01:06] <shawn34> Can anyone help me out with this? : "pls: Unable to initialize RAPI: An unspecified failure has occurred"
[01:06] <KirillZ> I'm looking for a program that will turn all my colors inverse? Could someone please shine some light as to where I'd go about looking for one? Thanks
[01:06] <mike> morodock: I appreciate your help
[01:06] <anow2> bk
[01:06] <GrueTamer> zedfloyd: is that a directory or a file?
[01:06] <zedfloyd> should i do cd /install_flash_player_9_linux/
[01:06] <GrueTamer> actually
[01:06] <mike> What do I need to put in yaboot?
[01:06] <anow2> GrueTamer: bk
[01:06] <mon^rch> predaeus: as far as I know iptables IS the router and you HAVE to open ports for stuff to work... amule, ftp, ssamba, http etc... no?
[01:06] <zedfloyd> trying to instal flash
[01:06] <predaeus> gonnaeatthat, try the System Monitor if you run gnome, else use "ps -e" to list pids and then "kill -15 PID"  or "kill -9 PID" if the first doesnt work
[01:06] <arentoine> Wriest : if you try to type "alsamixer" at a console ...
[01:06] <GrueTamer> try cd /home/<username>/install_flash_player_9_linux/
[01:06] <morodock> mike:  and add this line : defaultos=macosx
[01:06] <GrueTamer> anow2: alright
[01:07] <arentoine> Wriest : what do you get
[01:07] <GrueTamer> now, anow2, i want you to wait and see if it crashes
[01:07] <gonnaeatthat> it takes a while to get used to these commands
[01:07] <shawn34> gonnaeatthat, System>Administration>System Monitor
[01:07] <GrueTamer> gonnaeatthat: dont worry, its all worth it later :)
[01:07] <anow2> BTW, i have USB keyboard and mouse, if that helps
[01:07] <darksoule> hmmm.... still nothing... I turned on the master. shouldnt that turn it on?
[01:07] <morodock> mike : for future, I'd suggest parallels or vmware for mac to get familiar with OS B4 dual booting
[01:07] <gonnaeatthat> ubuntu kicks my butt sometimes and that was ridiculous,  lol
[01:07] <mike> Ok, thanks
[01:07] <gonnaeatthat> thanks shawn i wish i knew that, i was loading all my packages again and it started out of no where
[01:07] <GrueTamer> if you think ubuntu is bad, you aint seen nothin yet, so i call you lucky
[01:07] <anow2> lol
[01:07] <GenieOfTh> hi all
[01:07] <gonnaeatthat> grue i used to run suse when it was like 2.5
[01:07] <mukansamonkey> Anyone know how to configure the Shared Folders so that a remote OSX can open that folder for reading?
[01:07] <anow2> BTW, grue
[01:07] <gonnaeatthat> lol
[01:08] <Wriest> arentoine: intel and my card is sbl
[01:08] <zedfloyd> nope didnt work
[01:08] <GenieOfTh> good night
[01:08] <darksoule> any ideas on getting my sound running?
[01:08] <zedfloyd> very frustrating
[01:08] <predaeus> mon^rch, nah actually by default everything is open. it is not like windows where a lot of services are running that are potential security holes. if you don't run any servers you are quite safe with linux. if you use firestarter I think it changes the iptables rules to block everything and then you add rules to allow things to pass
[01:08] <anow2> when I try to  install java JDK
[01:08] <gonnaeatthat> i gave up linux 5 years ago cause i had to run a new OS for robotics programming and using that, windows, linux killed me
[01:08] <GenieOfTheLamp> hi all again
[01:08] <GenieOfTheLamp> :P
[01:08] <KirillZ> Does anyone know how to all your colors in Ubuntu?
[01:08] <anow2> I have this thing that says <Ok>
[01:08] <Wriest> it's on intel but my sound card is SBL
[01:08] <morodock> mike:  did that fix ur prob?
[01:08] <anow2> but I cant do anything to it
[01:08] <anow2> KirillZ
[01:08] <anow2> use emerald with beryl
[01:08] <GrueTamer> i dont know, since i dont run java jdk, sorry
[01:08] <anow2> : /
[01:08] <arentoine> Wriest : you must then have a "speaker" icon on the top right of the screen ...
[01:09] <anow2> its just to accept the license 0,o
[01:09] <Wriest> no
[01:09] <GrueTamer> KirillZ: could you be a bit more specific?
[01:09] <predaeus> mon^rch, you can list iptables rules like "sudo iptables -L -t mangle"   "sudo iptables -L -t filter" and so on see man iptables
[01:09] <mike> Still trying to find it (/etc/yaboot.conf)
[01:09] <KirillZ> GrueTamer -> I need ALL the colors inverse. My laptop screen is screwed, all the colors show up inverted so I need to counter the effect by inverting them
[01:09] <zedfloyd> its a tar.gz that i downloaded...  it expanded and i am trying to install
[01:09] <morodock> from command prompt type : vi /etc/yaboot.conf
[01:09] <KirillZ> I used an application that did that on windows but can't find anything for Linux
[01:09] <Wriest> arentoine: there's no spear icon by the time
[01:09] <KirillZ> anow2 -> Thanks a bunch!
[01:10] <mike> morodock: How would I get to it
[01:10] <mon^rch> predaeus: well ahem I run 3 different servers on my box here and I had to edit iptables to open the ports... I just use firestarter to do it because I am not too literate in linux shell yet
[01:10] <arentoine> Wriest : is it a fresh install from 7.04 ?
[01:10] <morodock> that command should open up the file for you
[01:10] <Wriest> yes
[01:10] <morodock> r u familiar with the linux program vi ?
[01:10] <KirillZ> anow2 -> That's a theme though, not really what I was looking for
[01:11] <KirillZ> anow2 -> I need ALL the graphical output coming in inverted
[01:11] <anow2> : /
[01:11] <anow2> idk then
[01:11] <anow2> maybe u can find a themet hat does it 0,o
[01:11] <Wriest> Xubuntu 7.04
[01:11] <anow2> lol
[01:11] <morodock> ... if not -- reinstall mac osX and use a virtual machine -
[01:11] <arentoine> Wriest : is it from the LiveCD or once installed ?
[01:11] <mon^rch> predaeus: and what the hell good is a firewall if all the ports are open?
[01:11] <morodock> if you are EXTREMELY new to linux - I don't recommend the dual boot option on a mac
[01:11] <predaeus> mon^rch, weird. Probably you ran firestarter before and it blocked everything or something like that
[01:11] <Wriest> Live cd
[01:11] <zedfloyd> install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz  <-how do i instal this??
[01:11] <jrib> !flash > zedfloyd (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:11] <KirillZ> anow2 -> I was kinda hoping there was a video card tweaking software that would do it for me,  I know apple has a shortcut to invert all colors called "Black Light"
[01:12] <predaeus> mon^rch, if no process is running for that port than nothing can happen, as nobody is answering
[01:12] <anow2> IDK lol
[01:12] <cafuego> zedfloyd: You don't you 'sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree'
[01:12] <tritium> zedfloyd: use the ubuntu package instead
[01:12] <OuZo> maxima or octave? which to use?
[01:12] <morodock> mike : here's a link to the dual boot option though : http://www.askdavetaylor.com/how_do_i_dual_boot_ubuntu_linux_mac_os_x.html
[01:12] <jersht> hmmm  ... so this whole nvidia driver thing - the hoops to get the up to date driver that does good 3d, etc. - that is because of the licensing philosophy ?
[01:12] <mon^rch> predaeus: again... I'm no expert
[01:12] <jersht> is that right ?
[01:12] <predaeus> mon^rch, the kernel will jsut respond that nothing is listening on that port. of course you can hide your ports by setting firewall rules that stop those answers and prevent portscans to work
[01:12] <mike> Thanks, I'll try that
[01:13] <fastly> i try System->Preferences->Desktop Effects and get the error: Composite manager is not available... any ideas?
[01:13] <predaeus> mon^rch, neither am I, I also keep learning things everyday in IRC channels.
[01:13] <morodock> np - dual booting linux on mac is not an easy first timer project
[01:13] <fastly> feisty
[01:13] <arentoine> Wriest : can you tell me what sound related line gives you "lspci" at the console
[01:13] <anow2> hmmm
[01:13] <fastly> of course ;-)
[01:13] <anow2> how do i change screen resolution?

[01:14] <AnRkey> Has everyone seen this? Dell is gonna sell Ubuntu >> http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6610901.stm
[01:14] <anow2> i saw they were gonna offer it
[01:14] <AnRkey> well sell pcs with ubuntu on :D
[01:14] <anow2> but are they gonna 'sell' it
[01:14] <predaeus> mon^rch, yup unfortunately here it is mostly wifi and printer and gfx driver problems so not too interesting but the programming language channels are nice. but this is goin offtopic ;-)
[01:14] <anow2> lol
[01:14] <arentoine> Wriest : if you open a terminal and type "lspci" ...
[01:14] <anow2> I was about to say xD
[01:14] <zedfloyd> cafuego, how do i do the  'sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree'
[01:14] <mike> I just love my mac, and I am really eager to try ubuntu, so I'd love to get this working (I'v only got 1GB of ram, so that's why i'm not going with parallels)

Or an command that show the default webbrowser. Is this possible? An other time, sorry for my english xDD. Thanks
[01:15] <mon^rch> predaeus: nods

[01:15] <Agamotto> Vall-k:  Usar programma lynx
[01:15] <jersht> Vall-k :  lynx http://www.example.com
[01:15] <Eleaf> Is it possible to get vmware working with pulseaudio?  Every time I try to use an os in it, it says it can't connect to the sound device, I tried using padsp too.
[01:16] <jrib> Vall-k: x-www-browser or gnome-open
[01:16] <Wriest> arentoine: Can I private chat
[01:16] <Wriest> you
[01:16] <jersht> Vall-k : or   telnet www.example.com 80    and then type :    GET / HTTP/1.0   and then hit enter _twice_
[01:16] <jersht> Vall-k : or netcat
[01:16] <arentoine> Wriest : yes you can try
[01:16] <Vall-k> wow wow wow xDDD
[01:16] <PiNE> how would i switch my system sounds to use an external sound card rather than the internal one which seems to be the default??
[01:16] <Vall-k> ok
[01:16] <Vall-k> very thanks!
[01:16] <anow2> how do i change screen resolution?
[01:16] <mike> sorry, i acdentally closed out xchat

[01:16] <Agamotto> Does anyone have time to help me with a perplexing problem involving on-board video and an add-on video card?
[01:16] <jrib> anow2: system > preferences > screen resolution
[01:16] <darksoule> please don't Wriest, I am having similar issues and am following your conversation
[01:16] <mike> what were you saying morodock
[01:16] <RichF> fastly: had you installed xgl manually?
[01:17] <anow2> i feel like an idiot lol
[01:17] <anow2> argh, thats 2 small
[01:17] <anow2> err
[01:17] <KirillZ> myr - nope, checking it out right now
[01:17] <morodock> mike:  that's cool. I was just saying that you CAN run it with 1 gig of ram, it's just not going to run very fast, but it's workable, enough so that you can get familiar with the OS
[01:17] <anow2> big?
[01:17] <anow2> i need a higher resolution
[01:17] <morodock> before you tackle the mac dual boot

[01:17] <melat0nin> anyone got a Diamondback mouse working properly? i've lost my scrollwheel!!
[01:17] <jrib> !enter > anow2 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:17] <morodock> it's not "REALLY" supported per-say
[01:17] <morodock> you probably need to be root
[01:17] <RobbieCrash> Additionally, if I upgrade to Feisty, will it automatically update my drivers to the new ones that kill my xorg?
[01:18] <mike> Yeah, I tried parallels, and it was just too slow for me
[01:18] <darksoule> I have tried turning everything on and nothing works. I have tried the speaker icon in the corner, the system-preferences-sound. I have tried the alsamixer. I still don't have sound.  I have an SB Live! on Edgy.
[01:18] <mike> So sorry, but how do I be root?
[01:18] <morodock> type su -
[01:18] <Wriest> arentoine: did you get that
[01:18] <morodock> and then enter
[01:18] <morodock> then the rest of your commands
[01:18] <mike> Ohhh
[01:18] <KirillZ> myr - I think it was driver specific in that case. My problem is from a faulty cable between the mainboard and the screen.
[01:18] <RichF> fastly: Compiz is the default
[01:18] <KirillZ> myr -> Another word for what I'm looking for is Inverted Gamma
[01:20] <thomask> anyone know how to xdmcp into a box from windows?
[01:20] <jersht> xdmcp ?
[01:20] <mike> morodock: Could I do it with sudoedit /etc/yaboot.conf ?
[01:20] <mjr> thomask, you need an X server for Windows, such as the one in cygwin
[01:20] <morodock> yes
[01:21] <jersht> or HCL eXceed
[01:21] <morodock> as long as you are root when you edit it, otherwise it won't let you save the file, it'll probably be readonly

[01:21] <py_geek> ALL: hey, i am currently using ubuntu edgy 6.10 and I want to completely wipe my hard drive. I have my documents backed up. How can i, from the live cd installation, create a new partition that the computer will boot to?(Is this automatic?)
[01:21] <Wriest> you there
[01:22] <morodock> py_geek: boot the CD and run install from the desktop
[01:22] <mon^rch> py_geek: it's all automatic, baby
[01:22] <morodock> yep :)
[01:22] <Jove`> py_geek: During the install, the partitioner will offer you the option of wiping and using the whole disk.
[01:22] <Agamotto> QUESTION:  Anyone have experience with multiple graphics cards under K/Ubuntu?
[01:22] <Pelo> py_geek,  just create a new label for the hdd,   make a new partion and do not set a boot flag
[01:22] <vorbote> thomask: you need X installation (there are some free out there, cygwin comes to mind but it is not the newer out there).
[01:23] <py_geek> ALL: okay, what type of disk format should i use?
[01:23] <Wriest> I have XUbuntu and I'm new to linux and I can't get no sound of my speakers, Can someone help me?
[01:23] <vorbote> s/installation/installed/
[01:23] <py_geek> for main partition?
[01:23] <Agamotto> py_geek:  Ext3 to make life easier
[01:23] <Pelo> py_geek, depends on what you want to use it for,   ext3 is the current linux standard
[01:23] <mon^rch> py_geek: ext3
[01:23] <thomask> vorbote, once cygwin is installed can i just choose xdmcp?
[01:23] <mon^rch> lol
[01:23] <py_geek> okay, ttyl be back after install!
[01:24] <vorbote> thomask: you install the X binaries and you can set up a connection using xcdmp
[01:24] <Jove`> thomask: Easier option - install Xming
[01:24] <Jove`> It's free

[01:24] <Nergar> whats the difference between abiword and abiword-gnome?
[01:24] <vorbote> thomask: yes, xming is better maintained.
[01:24] <KirillZ> anow2, GrueTamer, myr -> Thanks for the help guys, I found as solution I think. compiz-extra package has a "Negative Plugin" which can invert colors for the entire screen and specific windows. http://compiz.org/Plugins Thanks a bunch again!
[01:25] <Agamotto> Nergar:  The gnome version has better integration with Evolution and other gnome-specific programs
[01:25] <Nergar> great, thanx
[01:25] <thomask> Jove`, thanks a bunch!
[01:25] <myr> KirillZ, it doesnt invert your desktop background, but everything else it does

[01:37] <Pelo> drake,  if you are using a CRT screen you might need to also adjust the horizsync value to match what your monitor capabilities,  as well as adding the extra resolutions you want
[01:37] <roadfish> I minimized the freze-point down to:
[01:37] <roadfish>    use SDL::App; print SDL::App->new();
[01:37] <simonhellstrom> hey, is realplayer just work for win xp?
[01:37] <roadfish> any ideas on how to debug this SDL?
[01:37] <Pelo> drake,  I mean that when you edit xorg.conf
[01:37] <simonhellstrom> can a get it om my kubuntu
[01:37] <peepsalot> i have an old hard drive that might be bad, and I want to do a comprehensive test on it.  is there a program to check the whole device regardless of current filesystem on it?
[01:37] <ernst> Hi guys/girls I just wanted to say thanks, i hope you realize the great work your doing!!
[01:37] <Vulcan40> It works in ubuntu
[01:37] <thelostpatrol> simon - yeah, but you can get vlc and it should play realmedia on it
[01:37] <Wriest> 81 81
[01:37] <morodock> mike: burn it to a CD, boot from that and fix ur probs easier since you're not very familiar with the linux command interface
[01:38] <myr> @chuck
[01:38] <mike> Oh, yes, I actually already downloaded that, however, it seems that you have to install it from the mac side
[01:38] <thelostpatrol> how do i make restart / shutdown shortcuts?
[01:38] <Pelo> simonhellstrom,  ther is a version of real player for linux
[01:38] <drake> I've edited that some minutes ago but xorg got screwed up. Envy fixed the problem last time but now I'm forced to use Restricted drivers
[01:38] <mike> Maybe I'm wrong
[01:38] <Pelo> !realplayer > simonhellstrom  check your pm for a page with a link to it on it
[01:38] <simonhellstrom> sweet, i will play webradio, can i do it with vlc to?
[01:38] <arentoine> Wriest : everything should be at max with mute disabled ...
[01:39] <Pelo> drake, restate your problem every 30 minutes or so maybe soneone will come in who knows how to fix it
[01:40] <Wriest> card: Intel
[01:40] <arentoine> Wriest : to unmute press "m"
[01:40] <morodock> mike: I'll check, but there is a distinct possibility you'll need to reinsall OS X anyway
[01:40] <mike> Oh, crap...can I do that without erasing ubuntu?
[01:40] <phreaky_> Hey guys.. just wondering if any1 else experience programs disappearing from systemtray. in Gnome, when minimzed to it?
[01:40] <Wriest> how do I change the card
[01:41] <morodock> mike:  nope
[01:41] <mike> Oh, ok...
[01:41] <arentoine> Wriest : you mean input ?
[01:41] <yimmmmy> yello
[01:41] <Vulcan40>  Help LOL I ran this (sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg) and added a res but now I get Fatal error and a black screen how do I go back to a splah screen???
[01:41] <PiNE> justin420, asound-conf is not recognized as a command... is it a file that needs to be edited or what do i do with it?
[01:41] <simonhellstrom> pelo what is pm, im new here?
[01:41] <morodock> mike:  but I would suggest, if you still want to dual boot, re-install macox, install this other app, and THEN the dual boot
[01:42] <Wriest> the screen has Card: Intel
[01:42] <zerokill88> Hello.im wanting to buy a Microsoft Fingerprint Reader but was wondering if that would work on ubuntu somehow???
[01:42] <myr> simonhellstrom, pm s private message
[01:42] <Wriest> But my card is SB Live
[01:42] <roadfish> is there a way to test/debug my SDL install in Ubuntu? It works on one PC but not my other PC.
[01:42] <morodock> mike:  it's not that it's impossible to make it work from where you are right now, but unless you have a lot of important data that's not backed up. I doubt you'll be able to do what you need to from ubuntu
[01:42] <darksoule> Wriest are you in the alsamixer?
[01:42] <Pelo> simonhellstrom,  a private message window,  check the tabs at the bottom fo your irc client or the tree display on the left , it's a private message from ubotu
[01:42] <mike> Well mr. Morodock, I GREATLY appreciate all this time you spent helping me...you are very kind
[01:43] <morodock> everyone needs help sometimes with something
[01:43] <yimmmmy> i have a booting error it dosent boot anything it just boots windows
[01:43] <simonhellstrom> thanks for the help, cheers mate
[01:43] <Wriest> darksoule: Yes
[01:43] <yimmmmy> any know what the problem is
[01:43] <jonah> yimmmmy: probably a GRUB error
[01:43] <tandy> anyone know of quick fix to stop my laptop hardrive from abruptly clicking off when shutting down; ubuntu feisty
[01:44] <yimmmmy> what is a grubb error
[01:44] <abg> i keep trying to connect my laptop to a monitor, and the display setting is set to the proper 1280x1024, but the edges of the screen don't quite fit. the toolbars leak off the sides a bit
[01:44] <BetaCookies> Hey
[01:44] <abg> can anyone point me in the right direction to fix that?
[01:44] <justin420> PiNE: sorry; its asoundconf
[01:44] <tandy> I remember setting something in hdparm like way long time ago
[01:44] <morodock> abg: tweak the setting physically on your monitor
[01:44] <justin420> asoundconf set-default-card <insert cardname here>
[01:45] <abg> really? but it fits fine when i boot to xp
[01:45] <morodock> how badly does it bleed off?
[01:45] <morodock> just a bit?
[01:45] <BetaCookies> I'm trying to change the dimensions of my screen, the ml so the resolution is 96dpi, currently it's 100dpi, and I can't seem to change it. It's stuck at 260x195 and i want 270x203...
[01:45] <Pelo> abg,  you are not in xp anymore
[01:45] <mike> I'm going to go now, and reinstall Mac OS X, thanks for the advice (don't worry, I'm going to do just what you said,and then reinstall ubuntu)
[01:45] <morodock> mike: good call
[01:45] <jonah> yimmmmy: http://mattdunlap.smartlegacy.com/2007/04/27/dual-booting-ubunto-feisty-fawn-704-and-windows-xp/ maybe this will help?
[01:45] <mike> Thanks again
[01:45] <yimmmmy> ok
[01:45] <morodock> np
[01:45] <yimmmmy> ill try it
[01:45] <abg> morodock: yeah, it's not that bad. just a small amount, but it's noticable
[01:46] <yimmmmy> thnaks
[01:46] <morodock> abg: some monitors have a single key you can hit
[01:46] <Vulcan40>  Help LOL I ran this (sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg) and added a res but now I get Fatal error and a black screen how do I go back to a splah screen???
[01:46] <morodock> abg: and it'll just kinda tweak up the settings, but some older monitors don't
[01:46] <WDSna1> hi
[01:46] <darksoule> Stupid Question: I am typically a gentoo user. What is the ubuntu version of emerge?
[01:46] <Wriest> darksoule: you there
[01:46] <walkintome> hi all--is there a kde/customization chat?
[01:46] <morodock> it's just differences in the video drivers usually
[01:46] <abg> morodock: yeah, it has an auto-config button on it, but it doesn't seem to correct it, so i thought it was a software not a hardware issue
[01:47] <jrib> !apt > darksoule (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:47] <Pelo> darksoule,  what does emerge do ?
[01:47] <vandit2k7> Hi guys, I have a question I have ATI RADEON 9700 and I looked at Xorg.0.log and it says AGP failed. Is there a solution for that?
[01:47] <Pelo> nvm
[01:47] <morodock> abg: only if it's off by like a resolution size or something
[01:47] <WDSna1> I need help, I have a sound blaster live 24-bit and it will not work under feisty fawn
[01:47] <tandy> is there anyway to stop the hardrive from spinning before ubuntu shuts down?
[01:47] <morodock> abg: if everything else is working correctly, color, etc. etc. and just a SLIGHT bleed, that's the monitor itself
[01:48] <yimmmmy> didnt help
[01:48] <morodock> it's a vga monitor, not a plasma TV right?
[01:48] <yimmmmy> it just ask if i want tostart windows in safe mode
[01:48] <morodock> some TVs have custom resolutions
[01:48] <abg> yeah
[01:48] <morodock> (mine... )
[01:48] <WDSna1> can someone help me with my sound card issue please?
[01:48] <Cosmo_> anyone know of a good voice dictation software for ubuntu that works with open office?

[01:48] <yimmmmy> can some one help me with instaltion
[01:48] <darksoule> Thank you jrib

[01:48] <abg> exit
[01:49] <morodock> abg: if it will adjust OK
[01:49] <morodock> then that's the problem
[01:49] <abg> haha, oops. i forget what program i was using
[01:49] <WDSna1> help please
[01:49] <PiNE> justin420,  well that seems to have worked i am gonna try logging out and back in to see what happens.  thanks again for the help.
[01:49] <morodock> a real resolution issue can't be solved by adjusting
[01:49] <jrib> !please > WDSna1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:49] <darksoule> WDSna1 what issue?
[01:49] <justin420> PiNE: np
[01:49] <Tom47> WDSna1: i am not a sound specialist but have you looked at the sound advice in ubuntu site?
[01:49] <walkintome> Does anyone know how to add a menubar/toolbar gradient to a GTK 2.0 theme? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-2.png What I want is for the thick top menu bar in my screen to have a gradientlike the Mac Uno/Aqua theme versus the single color. If that's not possible, even a gradient from the toolbar up would be great. Any thoughts?				
[01:49] <justin420> PiNE: just remmeber that command to switch back and forth between sound cards... :)
[01:49] <tandy> anyone?
[01:50] <WDSna1> ok I have a sound blaster live 24-bit and it was working fine when I installed 7.04 ubuntu but once I got all the updates and restarted, it will no longer work
[01:50] <vandit2k7> Hi guys, I have a question I have ATI RADEON 9700 and I looked at Xorg.0.log and it says AGP failed. Is there a solution for that?
[01:51] <yimmmmy> any one

[01:51] <Vulcan40>  Help LOL I ran this (sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg) and added a res but now I get Fatal error and a black screen how do I go back to a splah screen???
[01:51] <vandit2k7> is your bios set to boot from cd
[01:51] <vandit2k7> first
[01:51] <jersht> LOLLERSKATES!
[01:51] <WDSna1> !sound, command not found
[01:52] <jrib> Vulcan40: did you make a backup of your xorg.conf?
[01:52] <vandit2k7> dude
[01:52] <Vulcan40> nope my bad
[01:52] <tandy> anyone know how to spindown the hardrive before shutdown?
[01:52] <vandit2k7> not in
[01:52] <Tom47> !sound
[01:52] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:52] <tandy> ubuntu's gonan trash my hardrive
[01:52] <vandit2k7> !ati
[01:52] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:52] <vandit2k7> !agp
[01:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about agp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:52] <jrib> Vulcan40: did you read carefully each question and think you selected the appropriate answer for each one?
[01:52] <josue_m> hi, any probed alternative app to M$-outlook that runs on ubuntu/*nix?
[01:53] <baudthief> josue_m: I use Evolution, quick / easy
[01:53] <Vulcan40> only one added a resolution 1280x1024
[01:53] <thelostpatrol> i installed kxdocker, but i don't see it in my menus. how do i run it?
[01:53] <foutrelis> josue_m: I use evolution that comes default with Ubuntu :)
[01:53] <Vulcan40> was running 1024
[01:53] <vandit2k7> Hi guys, I have a question I have ATI RADEON 9700 and I looked at Xorg.0.log and it says AGP failed. Is there a solution for that?
[01:53] <MSTK> josue_m - Evolution is pre-installed, but I use Thunderbird personally.
[01:53] <jrib> Vulcan40: that's the only question it asked?
[01:53] <josue_m> baudthief:  can connect M$-exchange?
[01:53] <Vulcan40> yes it was   a menu with res to select
[01:54] <walkintome> Does anyone know how to add a menubar/toolbar gradient to a GTK 2.0 theme? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/halfwayglad/Screenshot-2.png What I want is for the thick top menu bar in my screen to have a gradientlike the Mac Uno/Aqua theme versus the single color. If that's not possible, even a gradient from the toolbar up would be great. Any thoughts?
[01:54] <Tom47> thelostpatrol: if nowhere else it should start when you enter kxknocker into a termina window ... worth trying anyway
[01:54] <jrib> Vulcan40: try again without "-phigh"
[01:54] <MSTK> does anyone know of a CLI editor that can edit simple .doc or .odt files?
[01:54] <baudthief> josue_m: dunno, maybe - I can sync it to my (windows) pocketPC, so i'm pretty sure it'd be able to do exchange
[01:54] <Vulcan40> k
[01:54] <Phenax> MSTK: Convert them to .txt
[01:54] <baudthief> josue_m: just checked, it can
[01:54] <MSTK> Phenax - I would, but I'd like to retain/create simple underlining and bolding.
[01:54] <josue_m> baudthief: ok, thanks....
[01:54] <baudthief> np
[01:55] <Phenax> MSTK: Convert to .txt then back to .doc and do formatting
[01:55] <baudthief> is an antivirus for linux like birth control for the dead? I'm not sure if I should install one
[01:55] <yimmmmy> what program should i use to burn this iso
[01:55] <GrueTamer> baudthief: you dont need virus control
[01:55] <MSTK> Phenax - so there's no way I can add formatting in-line using CLI?
[01:55] <GrueTamer> yimmmmy: there are plenty to use, but try infra recorder
[01:55] <MSTK> it doesn't have to be .doc -- just anything that supports simple formatting.
[01:55] <Lunar_Lamp> baudthief, if you scan your outgoing mail, you can stop spreading virii to windows machines :-)
[01:55] <yimmmmy> is that good
[01:55] <GrueTamer> yes
[01:56] <Phenax> MSTK: Sure, several CLI editors support simple format I believe
[01:56] <GrueTamer> there are instructions on the ubuntu site
[01:56] <yimmmmy> ok ill try it
[01:56] <baudthief> Lunar_Lamp: haha, let 'em burn :P
[01:56] <yimmmmy> u used it and it workied?
[01:56] <MSTK> Phenax - any examples?
[01:56] <darksoule> why when i use apt-get it downloads .exe isn't that windows? can ubuntu use it?
[01:56] <Tom47> baudchief in practical terms viruschecking in linux is primarily a service to windows people to assist in preventing you sending something accidentally in an enclosure or suchlike
[01:56] <WesLappy> I'm running 7.04 and it detects my wireless USB device (Ralink 2571 rt73usb) and network manager displays my router but when I select it I get "Error connecting to wireless network" The requested wireless network requires security capabilities unsupported by your hardware. My router is running wpa2 personal tkip+aes.. I don't see wpa_supplicant running.. What am I doing wrong? I used liveCD on my other machine and it connected just
[01:56] <WesLappy> fine
[01:56] <Flannel> darksoule: apt-get doesn't download exe files.
[01:56] <Phenax> MSTK: I'd likely say get Vim or Emacs and RTFM :)
[01:56] <yimmmmy> i need a good iso burning program for windwos
[01:56] <MSTK> I wasn't aware that Vim applied formatting.
[01:56] <yimmmmy> what whould i use
[01:57] <thelostpatrol> this isn't #windows :P
[01:57] <thelostpatrol> but you can get nero
[01:57] <baudthief> Tom47: I see
[01:57] <GrueTamer> yimmmmy: http://infrarecorder.sourceforge.net
[01:57] <robbiev> I have edgy on my laptop and a feisty install disc. How can I upgrade my edgy laptop using the feisty install disc?
[01:57] <yimmmmy> i know
[01:57] <yimmmmy> is it for windows
[01:57] <Flannel> yimmmmy: yes
[01:57] <yimmmmy> ok
[01:57] <yimmmmy> thna k you
[01:57] <darksoule> Flannel it is now... downloaded a few already for ksirc
[01:57] <tandy> ok mayeb someone can answer this instead
[01:58] <tandy> how do i had na hdparm to run withthe shutdown script
[01:58] <Tom47> baudthief most dont bother afaik
[01:58] <tandy> i want to stop the drive from spinning before ubuntu turns off casue it just clicks off
[01:58] <vsmatck> hey guys, my friend is on dapper. He wants to update. Will sudo update-manager -d do it?
[01:58] <Flannel> darksoule: No.  It's not.  There are no exe files in ksirc, or anywhere else.
[01:58] <Phenax> MSTK: Personally, I use http://vim-latex.sourceforge.net/
[01:58] <cholera> I'm having trouble viewing media with firefox. Im particular, embedded avi files in websites. Although I can dl and play in xine, mplayer and vlc
[01:58] <Flannel> vsmatck: -c not -d, and gksu not sudo.
[01:58] <WDSna1> I tried some of the things, modprobe command did not help and alsamixer wants to use some Intel card when it needs to use the CA0106 so none of this seems to be helping my problem. :(
[01:59] <simonhellstrom> have anyone test gnash, how does it work?
[01:59] <vsmatck> Flannel, thanks a lot dude. :)
[01:59] <Phenax> MSTK: While you can't see the results real-time (I don't know any CLI editor that can), it uses Latex, which is one of my favorite ways to express junk like that.
[01:59] <baudthief> is there anything like InfraRecorder for linux? I've got k3b / k9copy / serpentine, none support writing DVD ISO's
[01:59] <Flannel> !burn | baudthief
[01:59] <ubotu> baudthief: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[01:59] <Phenax> MSTK: And it's for my favorite editor :)

[01:59] <kuma> hi, i'm trying to umount an ipod device i have connected to my pc, i tryed sudo umount /media/ipod but it tells me that the device is busy, i've alredy made lsof /media/ipod and i got nothing. can somebody help me?
[01:59] <darksoule> why did it download these?
[02:00] <MSTK> Phanex - heh, thanks.  I'll look into Latex.  I'm a VIM fan, as well.
[02:00] <Braddf0rd_> Where can I find a 1337 HaX0r?
[02:00] <bmonkey> hi, i installed 32bit feisty on my athon64 machine (it worked in 64bit), the cursor freezes after 5 minutes of gnome and i can't kill the x with ctrl-alt-backspace. the system seems to work besides of that :(
[02:00] <MSTK> but how would you view the formatting then?
[02:00] <Flannel> darksoule: You didn't.
[02:00] <Phenax> kuma: Make sure you aren't currently in the directory
[02:00] <Phenax> kuma: And make sure nothing else is currently in the directory :)
[02:00] <bmonkey> i can't kill the x after that 5 minutes
[02:00] <cholera> can firefox handle <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"  Or is shockwave not an option with linux
[02:01] <Braddf0rd_> HOW DO I CHANGE THE DEFAULT OS FOR GRUB???
[02:01] <Phenax> MSTK: You'd export it to HTML or another format.. Latex can be converted into several formats -- made for printer.. pdf.. whatever you prefer
[02:01] <Flannel> cholera: there is no shockwave for linux
[02:01] <kuma> Phenax thanks
[02:01] <Flannel> !caps | Braddf0rd_
[02:01] <ubotu> Braddf0rd_: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[02:01] <Flannel> Braddf0rd_: change the "default" number in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:01] <bmonkey> Braddf0rd: edit /boot/grub/menu.list
[02:01] <MSTK> Phenax - thanks, I'll look into it :)
[02:01] <wepeel> hi all. Is there a way to upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10 via a cd? My upgrade manager keeps getting 404s
[02:01] <WDSna1> so what do I do to get ubuntu 7.4 to use my CA0106 and when I type in alsaconf I get command not found error so how am I supposed to fix this?
[02:01] <kuma> Phenax: thanks :)
[02:01] <Flannel> !upgrade | wepeel
[02:01] <ubotu> wepeel: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:01] <Flannel> wepeel: there's instructions there
[02:02] <wepeel> Flannel: oh, I must have missed the CD instructions. I'll take a look
[02:02] <WDSna1> so what do I do to get ubuntu 7.4 to use my CA0106 and when I type in alsaconf I get command not found error so how am I supposed to fix this?
[02:02] <Braddf0rd_> Flannel, there's nothing on that list
[02:02] <wepeel> ah, I see there's an alternate install cd
[02:02] <cholera> Flannel: what about avi file embedded in a web page, I cannot play those either, I can dl and play, just not strream
[02:03] <bmonkey> how do i exit the xserver to install nvidia drivers? crtl-alt-backspace just sends me to the gnome login screen?
[02:03] <wepeel> heck, is it work upgrading to 6.10 in the first place?
[02:03] <baudthief> hooray for command line DVD writing :p
[02:03] <Flannel> Braddf0rd_: There's a "default" which has a number.  That number is the default option that grub chooses.  (starting with zero)
[02:03] <WDSna1> !repeat
[02:03] <ubotu> 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
[02:03] <preaction> bmonkey: ctrl+alt+f1; login, then "sudo /etc/init.d/?gm stop"
[02:03] <quelx> bmonkey: CTRL ALT F1
[02:03] <PiNE> justin420, asoundconf worked great!
[02:04] <bmonkey> thx
[02:04] <preaction> bmonkey: then when you're done, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[02:04] <WDSna1> so what do I do to get ubuntu 7.4 to use my CA0106 and when I type in alsaconf I get command not found error so how am I supposed to fix this?
[02:04] <preaction> bmonkey: i mistyped, it should be /etc/init.d/?dm
[02:04] <Braddf0rd_> Flannel, there's nothing in that file. It's blank. There are other files in /boot/grub though
[02:04] <torpedo|dog> I'm having problems trying to compile linux-restricted-modules for a custom kernel. Anybody too familiar with that?
[02:05] <justin420> PiNE: cool, glad it helped ya. it helped me to get my plantronics dsp-400 usb digital headset to work for ubuntu, when i asked plantronics how to get the dsp-400 to work on linux; they said it wouldnt, i said bull
[02:05] <Flannel> Braddf0rd_: /boot/grub/menu.lst can't be blank.  Make sure you have the filename correct.  That's lowercase "LST" not a 1.

[02:06] <darksoule> 19:40:26 (1.40 KB/s) - `./andale32.exe' saved [198384/198384]  OK Flannel tell me this isn't apt-get downloading exe's
[02:07] <vi0> =)
[02:07] <Flannel> darksoule: Pastebin your repositories.  Since, that's not normal.
[02:07] <wepeel> I can't find the iso for 6.10 anywhere. It keeps either giving me the 6.06 or the 7.04. Should I upgrade to 7.04?
[02:07] <wepeel> apparently, I have to upgrade to 6.10 to do that...which is proving to be quite a pain
[02:07] <Hobophobic> anybody know if ndiswrapper supports pcmcia or usb adapters?
[02:08] <Flannel> wepeel: releases.ubuntu.com

[02:08] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:08] <wepeel> Flannel: thanks again
[02:09] <cyril_> hi, what is the url to post a bug ?
[02:09] <darksoule> where are the repositories? Im not familiar with apt-get
[02:09] <cables> cyril_, launchpad.net
[02:09] <cyril_> thanks
[02:09] <Flannel> darksoule: pastebin /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:09] <vi0> got a question: how can i change the appearence of my gnome-splash-screen-startup thingy) link here to the one i want to change it to http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Ubuntu+Metal+Styck+Splash?content=40929
[02:10] <wepeel> are there any other mirrors I can choose from to get 6.10?
[02:10] <Alysum> is apache2.2 not avail yet ?
[02:10] <GrueTamer> vi0: open up /boot/grub/menu.lst and make the splash screen line lead to that image where its on your hd, and make sure its uncommented
[02:10] <Alysum> wepeel: any mirror...there are thousands
[02:11] <GrueTamer> wait, thats wrong
[02:11] <GrueTamer> wrong thing im thinking about :)
[02:11] <GrueTamer> alright, vi0, lets see...
[02:11] <arun_> I installed ubuntu over my openSUSE 10.2 installation preserving my home directory. Now in my konsole I cant ssh anywhere. It hangs when I try to ssh any place
[02:11] <Flannel> Alysum: sure it is.  In feisty.
[02:11] <wepeel> Alysum: I'm trying to find one for the 6.10 download off of the relases.ubuntu.com page...it only has one link. I'd rather try the purdue server...
[02:11] <walkintome> when clicking on properties and other items in evolution, it unexpectedly quits. why does this happen?
[02:11] <andrepose> Can I ask questions in here about ubuntu feisty server?
[02:11] <Tom47> wepeel is therea particular reason for wanting 6.10?
[02:11] <Punkunity> hey hey i got a question.
[02:11] <GrueTamer> vi0: goto system > administration > login window
[02:11] <jport> ask it
[02:11] <arun_> i can ssh into my machine from outside though
[02:12] <z0rz> I'm using MergedFB, ATI X800, Open source drivers to do dual head display.  For some reason my right monitor is not running at the correct resolution, although when I take a screen shot, it is the same resolution as my left monitor.  (Ubuntu Feisty Fawn)
[02:12] <quelx> wepeel: try http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/
[02:12] <z0rz> Anyone know how to fix this?
[02:12] <arun_> fish from konqueror works too
[02:12] <Punkunity> any takers, i need a proffessional type software that I can draw up a floor plan, and haver like an inch equal a foot....etc....
[02:12] <wepeel> Tom47: No particular reason, I'm installing a version on a friends computer tomorrow and I didn't know what to choose necessarily. Is there any reason not to go from 6.06 to 6.10?
[02:12] <wepeel> quelx: thanks
[02:13] <phy3> I have two nVidia cards, FX5500 and MX420. They use different drivers (duh, thank you nVidia)... This configuration gave black screen on install CD until one card was removed. Now that the install is working, can I add the second card and appropriate (older) driver, or not?
[02:13] <eegore> I am trying to compile a newer version of KTorrent
[02:13] <preaction> Punkunity: sounds like a CAD program, there are probably tons
[02:13] <Flannel> wepeel: 6.10 is probably what he wants, it's got newer versions of a lot of stuff (Firefox2, etc)
[02:13] <Tom47> wepeel if its a new install i wold suggest 7.04 unless you have a particular reason otherwise
[02:13] <eegore> What package do I need for the KDE headers
[02:13] <Punkunity> hmm.. preaction should i search CAD then?
[02:13] <Flannel> wepeel: If you go to the ubuntu.com/download thing, then go all the way down, to "additinal options" or whtaever, you'll get a bunch of repository lists
[02:13] <wepeel> I guess the other reason is that I'd like to try 7.0x someday too
[02:14] <preaction> Punkunity: searching synaptic for it might be prudent, yes
[02:14] <Punkunity> i am doing that now preaction
[02:14] <darksoule> ok Flannel here's the sources http://pastebin.ca/469967
[02:14] <arun_> I installed ubuntu over my openSUSE 10.2 installation preserving my home directory. Now in my konsole I cant ssh anywhere. It hangs when I try to ssh any place. i can ssh into my machine from outside though and fish from konqueror works too
[02:14] <arun_> any ideas?
[02:14] <Chowbacca> hy AfterDeath
[02:14] <wepeel> ah, perfect. Thanks Flannel. And I will try 7.04 on my buddies computer tomorrow
[02:14] <zaggynl> When I change my xmms volume, my VLC volume goes along
[02:15] <vi0> GrueTamer: thanks, buddy ;) got another one, what do i type to get into the skins folder for Xmms? cd ..??
[02:15] <aventin> i have an intel 915 card and i'm thinking of going ubuntu. however, when assesing my options, i find that there are not install instructions for my graphics card (http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu) is the i915 going to give me a hard time?
[02:15] <Flannel> wepeel: Feisty has a LOT of new stuff.  Like the automatic codec stuff, and wifi stuffs, and a bunch of other goodies
[02:15] <Kohvihoor> aventin: i have same card, and it works well.
[02:15] <BetaCookies> aventin it was automatically recognized over here :)
[02:15] <wepeel> FLannel: I didn't want to seem stupid, but the firefox and gnome updates alone got me very interested
[02:15] <cyril_> for the wireless NM sucks in feisty :(
[02:15] <quelx> aventin: I'm running feisty with that card and have no problems with beryl
[02:15] <GrueTamer> vi0: hmm...
[02:15] <BetaCookies> even beryl works out of the box
[02:15] <Flannel> wepeel: heh.  Fair enough ;)
[02:16] <Punkunity> there is one called electric preaction but it seems to be for electrical schematics, and mechanical engineering, which is cool and im getting it, but I'll let you know if I find what i need and tell ya....justr FYI TY man
[02:16] <wepeel> that's better 1.2M/sec vs. 224K/s
[02:16] <aventin> Kohvihoor, BetaCookies & quelx: thanks! so, i'll just install it then! :)
[02:16] <preaction> Punkunity: i'm seeing one called "QCad" that might work for you
[02:16] <cyril_> feisty is unable to connect to wireless not secured :'(
[02:16] <darksoule> funny thing is, these downloads are from sourceforge and I don't see sourceforge on the sources list... is this normal?
[02:16] <uni_> i'm looking for spanish support

[02:17] <cholera> I've looked at my plugins (about:plugins) and tested java http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java#Testing_Java What else can I do to get firefox to play embedded avi files. I have tried both the mplayer plugin and totem
[02:17] <jrib> cholera: what happens when you try to play an embedded avi?
[02:17] <uni_> tnx
[02:17] <wepeel> So, while I'm downloading this. 7.04 is "stable enough" to convert a long time windows user...it will be his first linux experience
[02:17] <walkintome> evolution keeps unexpectedly crashing. what could be causing this?
[02:18] <Tom47> wepeel bet ubuntu et for that purpose
[02:18] <wepeel> evolution has caused me nothing but pain
[02:18] <jrib> walkintome: try running it from a terminal and check for meaningful output
[02:18] <Tom47> wepeel best* yet*
[02:18] <wepeel> ah, ok. Well, I'll dl the 7.04 iso next then
[02:18] <g0o1> anyone know how to fix type 'http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org' is not known on line 4 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[02:18] <zaggynl> How can I make sure xmms has its own volume?
[02:18] <jrib> g0o1: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:18] <vi0> what do i type to get into the "skins-folder" for xmms ? cd.. ???
[02:18] <Punkunity> qcad seems promising preaction
[02:19] <zaggynl> vi0, it's probably somewhere in your home directory
[02:19] <cholera> jrib: nothing, it just shows an empty player pane (no video), the only way to play is to download and play. I know it can play, this is on my site, I tested with other computers some running windows others running linux, all play but mine
[02:19] <jrib> vi0: cd ~/.xmms/skins   probably
[02:19] <vi0> thanks jrib
[02:19] <ajehuk> preaction = looking for a CAD program?
[02:19] <walkintome> the only errors i get are from my gtk theme not being able to find a few pngs that i purposely deleted, and one plugin that fails
[02:19] <jrib> cholera: you installed mozilla-mplayer and w32codecs?
[02:19] <preaction> ajehuk: no, Punkunity is
[02:19] <walkintome> jrib:  the only errors i get are from my gtk theme not being able to find a few pngs that i purposely deleted, and one plugin that fails
[02:19] <Punkunity> i got about 5 programs and supporting files preaction ty for your help
[02:19] <ajehuk> preaction : sorry..
[02:20] <jrib> walkintome: did you wait for it to crash?
[02:20] <voyt618> Hi all. has anyone heard of a command "gcc3"?? I have gcc (as far as I know), but don't know how to get gcc3. Any advice?
[02:20] <g0o1> !pastebin
[02:20] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:20] <cholera> jrib: sure did, I'm able to play videos from other sites, plus I can play wmv in mplayer, xine, and vlc
[02:20] <SeveredCross> Anyone here skilled with cut or xargs?
[02:20] <walkintome> jrib: no i didnt
[02:20] <jrib> voyt618: gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4 are in the repos
[02:20] <Tarkus> hey, i connected a second hard drive to my pc, and i opened "Gnome partition editor". and i saw it there as /dev/hda1. and im having trouble mounting it, any ideas?
[02:20] <ajehuk> Punkunity - Depending on what you want it for and what you are used to QCad is probably the best and complete CAD application thats free, thats available atm
[02:20] <justme3> What do you do when you improperly shut down the computer?  (The screen went black after resuming from Hibernation mode.)
[02:20] <jrib> walkintome: k, wait for that to happen
[02:21] <Punkunity> ajehuk we are redoing the layout of our warehouse at work and i need stuff to autoscale inches to feet, and to be easy to use since i have used almost no CAD or graphical software other than Adobe stuff(very little exp) and MSPaint
[02:21] <jrib> cholera: did you remove the totem plugina fter installing the mplayer one?
[02:21] <g0o1> jrib:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19057/
[02:21] <voyt618> jrib: and those are different from the regular gcc? (gcc -v gives me version 4.x)
[02:21] <MSTK> does anyone know of a good CLI Spreadsheet viewer, if there even is one?
[02:21] <jrib> voyt618: they are an earlier version
[02:21] <voyt618> jrib: so they're not backwards compatible?
[02:21] <jrib> MSTK: oleo?
[02:21] <voyt618> (err GCC4, anyway?)
[02:21] <mike>  I installed Ubuntu on my MacBook, and now I need to remove ubuntu, but I can't figure out how to?
[02:22] <ajehuk> Punkunity - not QCad then... thats not all that easy to use...
[02:22] <MSTK> jrib - thanks, I'll look into that.
[02:22] <jrib> voyt618: not everything that compiles with 3.4 will compile with 4.0
[02:22] <g0o1> jrib, did you see the pastebin?
[02:22] <voyt618> jrib: I see. Thank you for the advice. I will install and try again.
[02:22] <preaction> mike: i had the same problem. the only was i was able to was reinstalling OSX by trashing both partitions
[02:22] <Punkunity> then what do you think ajehuk
[02:22] <jrib> g0o1: line 4 is broken.  Why are you adding those repositories anyway?  Ubuntu repos have beryl already
[02:23] <mike> preaction: How could I do that?
[02:23] <g0o1> i am doing a guide and it said to add them
[02:23] <jrib> !info beryl | g0o1
[02:23] <ubotu> g0o1: beryl: Compositing window manager, decorator and theme support - Beryl. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.1.dfsg+git20070318-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 2 kB, installed size 44 kB
[02:23] <preaction> mike: use your OSX install discs, in the menu there should be an entry for the disk manager
[02:23] <cholera> jrib: yeah, I don't know what's up, at the min there should be a player windows with controls at the bottom, I don't see that when I navigate to the site. I even tried embeding the file in a flash player compatible with ver 4, just to see if I view it
[02:23] <walkintome> jrib: Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[02:23] <phy3> mike ---- delete the partitions you installed ubuntu into ?
[02:23] <jrib> g0o1: you don't need them, please see #ubuntu-effects for help with enabling beryl
[02:23] <Clinton__> Ubuntu Feisty will not detect a blank CD in the drive - I am trying to burn with K3b.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[02:23] <someothernick> is there a config file for the menu? i reinstalled ubuntu but wine is still in the menu
[02:23] <sanityx> Hey, I somehow managed to set the gnome splash screen to the default splash rather then the ubuntu logo splash (the little picture that displays after you login). Any idea how I can change it?
[02:23] <wepeel> ok. wish me luck
[02:23] <Smaug> would anybody know why in gim it wont let me save my image because it says unknown filetype?
[02:23] <g0o1> jrib: thanks
[02:24] <Tuttleturtle> hey, does anyone have a suggestion for something to do if I can't load up my harddrive from usb?
[02:24] <mike> preaction: Nice, I'll try that...thanks so much!
[02:24] <Tarkus> hey, i connected a second hard drive to my pc, and i opened "Gnome partition editor". and i saw it there as /dev/hda1. and im having trouble mounting it, any ideas?
[02:24] <jrib> walkintome: hmm, check bugs.ubuntu.com.  Consider filing a bug if one hasn't already been filed -- especially if you know how to recreate it
[02:24] <Tom47> Smaug: gim or gaim?
[02:24] <ajehuk> Punkunity - Im not sure what to suggest, Dia will do the layout element pretty well, and its probably the easiest of the bunch to use, but as for automatic conversion of dimensions based on the scale (I assume thats what you want) I dont think it will..
[02:24] <Smaug> in GImp
[02:24] <walkintome> jrib: it happens at all different times
[02:24] <Smaug> Gimp
[02:24] <preaction> mike: good luck, i remember trying to find that taking a few hours. might need to check the install guide as well. google if all else fails
[02:25] <mike> will do
[02:25] <vi0> jrib: do you have a second?
[02:25] <jrib> vi0: sure
[02:25] <walkintome> jrib: other than that its just a bunch of errors with my gtk theme (missing pngs) but that wouldnt cause my problem would it?
[02:25] <Tom47> Smaug what is the file name and will it open in something else?
[02:25] <darksoule> k so im going now... thanks for any help provided
[02:25] <sanityx> Anybody know how to change the Gnome splash screen?
[02:25] <Smaug> no i just cant save it
[02:25] <jrib> walkintome: see if it happens on a fresh new user.  That would rule out a configuration issue.  But it's still best to file a bug, someone can probably make sense of what happens after you get a backtrace
[02:26] <jrib> !debug > walkintome (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:26] <Punkunity> ajehuk thx its not a big project but i get 500 bux bonus for puttin it all together (manual labor and all) in 2 weeks
[02:26] <Smaug> What file type should it be saved as?
[02:26] <jrib> !splash > sanityx (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:26] <Tom47> Smaug what name are you tryin to save it as?
[02:26] <Clinton__> Ubuntu Feisty will not detect a blank CD in the drive - I am trying to burn with K3b.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[02:26] <vi0> jrib: i got some trouble with a memory-stick i can't format it (its 128megs) when i plug it in, it says "ChipsBnk Flash Disk" when i try to enter it it says "Unable to mount media" can i format it ?
[02:26] <jrib> vi0: try gparted
[02:27] <vi0> jrib: will try =)
[02:27] <Smaug> Tom47: well actually i tryed all of them but mainly as Gimp XCF image
[02:27] <jrib> MSTK: hmm oleo doesn't run in a terminal... I know there is one though, hold on :)
[02:27] <Punkunity> im getting dia now ajehuk
[02:28] <ajehuk> Punkunity - Sounds nice! - to be honest I only need CAD like capabilities for network diagramming, I have looked for a good all round application that does what I want thats Open Source and either free or not overly expensive, and I always end up going back to CrossoverOffice + Visio
[02:28] <kevin> Is the ubuntu forums exremely slow for anybody else besides me?? I'm on broadband and the forum is slow as molasses for me.. Don't know why.
[02:28] <sanityx> jrib, it shows no installed splash screens . . .
[02:28] <Punkunity> whats that ajehuk?
[02:28] <vi0> jrib: i think its a little bit buggy it only finds 7.84 MiB (its labeled 128megs)
[02:28] <jrib> MSTK: ah, "sc" is
[02:28] <myr> kevin,  works fine for me
[02:29] <jrib> vi0: I don't know then
[02:29] <ajehuk> Punkunity - crossover office + visio?
[02:29] <sanityx> Anybody know how I can restore ubuntu's default gnome splash screen? i have gnome-splashscreen-manager it shows nothing
[02:29] <Tuttleturtle> When I have BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3-2ubuntu3) Built-in shell when I'm trying to load up from usb what should I do?
[02:29] <vi0> jrib: ok, thanks, i think its just screwed :P
[02:29] <Clinton__> Ubuntu Feisty will not detect a blank CD in the drive - I am trying to burn with K3b.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[02:29] <Tarkus> hey, i connected a second hard drive to my pc, and i opened "Gnome partition editor". and i saw it there as /dev/hda1. and im having trouble mounting it, any ideas?
[02:29] <kevin> thanks myr.. don't know what is up.. but its driving me crazy. I can connect just about to any site and its fine. But not ubuntu.
[02:29] <jrib> sanityx: set /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image to "splash/ubuntu-splash.png" in gconf-editor
[02:30] <Tom47> Smauf hmm dont know .... but usually you get that sort of error when you have nominated a file name suffix after the dot that is not recohgnised by gimp
[02:30] <sanityx> jrib, Thanks!
[02:30] <jrib> Tarkus: what kind of trouble?  What filesystem?
[02:30] <Clinton__> Testing 1 2 3, anyone see me or am I just being ignored outright?
[02:30] <Tarkus> jrib: ntfs
[02:30] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - I can see you...
[02:30] <jrib> someothernick: right click on the ubuntu icon > edit menu
[02:31] <Clinton__> alright good
[02:31] <jrib> !ntfs > Tarkus (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:31] <Clinton__> guess no one can help me tho since I've had no responses
[02:31] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - But I dont know where to start with k3b...
[02:31] <Clinton__> ajehuk: it isn't k3b specific
[02:31] <jrib> !patience > Clinton__ (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:31] <Clinton__> ajehuk: Ubuntu does *not* detect the blank cd in the drive
[02:31] <GrueTamer> darnit youre fast jrib :)
[02:31] <Smaug> Tom47: ya its really weird but i dont want to continue if i cant save
[02:31] <MSTK> jrib - can oleo edit xls files?
[02:31] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - hmm, hold on..
[02:32] <jrib> MSTK: I don't know, but did you catch my last message about "sc"?
[02:32] <Tom47> Smaug just type test in the file name and try saving that
[02:32] <someothernick> jrib: ty
[02:32] <MSTK> jrib - no, sorry, I didn't.  can you repeat it?
[02:32] <justme3> The "Disks" menu item is missing off of the System > Administration menu.  How do I get to "Disks"?
[02:32] <Smaug> Somehow it randomly worked now
[02:32] <jrib> MSTK: hmm oleo doesn't run in a terminal... but "sc" does seem to
[02:32] <vi0> jrib: got time for another one?
[02:32] <Smaug> but thanks for the help
[02:32] <MSTK> jrib - but I actually got oleo to run in a terminal.
[02:33] <jrib> vi0: just ask the channel
[02:33] <jrib> MSTK: ah ok, cool then
[02:33] <MSTK> jrib - oleo --nw ...but it doesn't seem to support .xls files.
[02:33] <jrib> justme3: it was dropped since edgy I believe (unmaintained)
[02:33] <vi0> ok, here goes nothing. how can i download the "restricted codecs"
[02:33] <simon_> hey, i know there is a lot going on right now.. but I'm having a problem using my wireless router WMP54G v2, with the Live CD

[02:34] <fit4lfe> Need help with video display I have the drivers in but I have my box connected to a 56 in hd tv and I am getting over scanning
[02:34] <Clinton__> ajehuk: Nope
[02:34] <justme3> is there an equivalent "disks" function in Feisty? by another name, way, etc?
[02:34] <jrib> justme3: what do you want to do?
[02:34] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - can you read CD's?
[02:35] <sgtmattbaker> my mic isn't pickin up in Feisty

[02:36] <sgrove> hey all, I'm curious to start developing some graphical stuff for my GA/NN stuff
[02:36] <jrib> vandit2k7: what kind of problems?
[02:36] <sgrove> what would be a simple place to start on ubuntu, as I've only worked with game engines before?
[02:36] <sgrove> pygame seems nice, but I don't know python at all...I'd love to have something in c++, or better yet c#
[02:37] <fit4lfe> learn pyton
[02:37] <fit4lfe> python
[02:37] <justme3> I need to check my disks but don't know how, and fsck complains horribly that disk is mounted.  What should I do?
[02:37] <ajehuk> Punkunity - its a collection of scripts and wizards built on top of wine (AFAIK) that allows you to run windows applications (visio is a windows application) - both visio and crossover office are non-free, obviously.. allthough there is a trial of crossover available from their site.
[02:37] <Clinton__> ajehuk: are you as stumped as I am?
[02:37] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - not quite
[02:37] <sgrove> fit4lfe: ok, that's one option
[02:37] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - give me a moment though
[02:37] <sgrove> any others?
[02:37] <Clinton__> ajehuk: np
[02:37] <vandit2k7> allright
[02:37] <Blonde> Ok, so i'm a total newbie and have some issues with ubuntu and installing linux mce
[02:37] <drif> justme3: unmount it or atleast remount as read-only
[02:38] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - Have ou tried adding the device to k3b manually?
[02:38] <Blonde> am i in the right place to ask?
[02:38] <vandit2k7> jirib: my Xorg.0.log says that AGP failed..........
[02:38] <jrib> vandit2k7: pastebin it
[02:38] <Punkunity> ajehuk i pay for nothing, but i can get just about everything....
[02:38] <fit4lfe> can anyone help me now ?
[02:38] <vandit2k7> jirib: hold on a sec
[02:38] <Clinton__> ajehuk: Nope, one sec I'll give that a host (in the past it was always just there)
[02:38] <chump_> Blonde: yes i guess so ;)
[02:38] <fit4lfe> 56 in TV overscanning
[02:38] <Clinton__> ajehuk: host = shot
[02:38] <geokeratz_> Blonde dont ask to ask :) just ask
[02:38] <Blonde> i installed ubuntu, updated it alls well. then installed linux mce waited for all the stuff to load
[02:38] <Blonde> said it successfully installed and needs to be rebooted.
[02:38] <Blonde> now its stuck at the ubuntu start up thing, (orange horizontal bar)
[02:39] <Punkunity> so what does it all do ajehuk graphical design?? and when you close wine wont you lose your project data?
[02:39] <Netboy541> anyone successfully got ubuntu to talk to AD without ripping your hair out??
[02:39] <Clinton__> ajehuk: the device is listed - but it says that no medium is present despite the fact that a blank cd in present
[02:39] <fit4lfe> mce won't install on feisty
[02:39] <yetiman> leave
[02:39] <fit4lfe> unless they upgraded it now
[02:39] <vi0> jrib: thanks buddy :)
[02:39] <sgrove> I'd like to hear a bit to make sure that it's worth my time - is pygame the best way to go for developing simple graphical apps on ubuntu?
[02:39] <Blonde> any  ideas what i should do?
[02:39] <vandit2k7> jirib: in which directory is Xorg.0.log
[02:39] <vandit2k7> I forgot
[02:39] <fit4lfe> get dapper instead
[02:40] <jrib> vandit2k7: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:40] <sethk> vandit2k7, /var/log
[02:40] <vandit2k7> ok thanks
[02:40] <geokeratz_> haha I don;t know what mce is   :(
[02:40] <Blonde> media center
[02:40] <Blonde> lol
[02:40] <fit4lfe> linuxmce right
[02:40] <ajehuk> Punkunity - Ah I pay for both, as for how it works, crossover handles everything, and it works exactly as it would in windows, i.e. you open the application, save your work, open existing files etc.. crossover basically allows you to install windows applications to our machine and use them as if they were native applications (mostly) but hey, most of the Linux applications out there are better than the MS and Windows stuff, so I only u
[02:40] <fit4lfe> I tried it on dapper didn't work for me
[02:40] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - hmm
[02:41] <vi0> when using vlc and other application, the video tends to dissapear upon loading/moving the window or when going full-screen im using feisty with open source drivers and compiz
[02:41] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - stupid question - it is listed as a 'writer device' not a read only one?
[02:41] <Flapp> hi
[02:41] <robert98374> hello
[02:41] <PiNE> my cursor is really jumpy... has anyone else experienced this?  how would i fix it?
[02:41] <kermitus> anyone in here pretty good with XAMPP??
[02:41] <Flapp> im having the weirdest problem
[02:41] <Clinton__> ajehuk: it doesn't say either way
[02:41] <geokeratz_> I m the noob here , i have a soundcard SCOPE fusion platform from Creamware  so ...I cant make it work in Ubuntu
[02:41] <vandit2k7> jirib: hold on I'll give u the link soon
[02:42] <Flapp> kermitus, im kind, shoot
[02:42] <Flannel> kermitus: just install normal LAMP.  There's no real reason to use XAMPP on Linux
[02:42] <orbin> Blonde: not sure how mce works.  do you still see grub (the opertaing system choice menu) at bootup?
[02:42] <simon_> Clinton__: I have had some problems myself (Win XP) with CD drive not picking up CD-Rs but I was able to read CDs and write CD-RW
[02:42] <kermitus> Flapp: i am getting - /opt/lampp$ /opt/lampp/bin/mysql.server: 84: source: not found - MySql does start and seems to work still.. have you seen this before?
[02:42] <Clinton__> ajehuk: Ah, however, it does list it as a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM device in Places->Computer and not CD-RW
[02:42] <geokeratz_> too special to work in LInux
[02:42] <sethk> PiNE, that's usually caused by using the wrong mouse driver in xorg.conf
[02:42] <vandit2k7> jirib: http://www.pastebin.ca/470010
[02:42] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - they should be listed under groups (if you, like me have more than one, marked as Readonly Devices and Writer Devices, just above the Device Name
[02:42] <Flapp> that is odd
[02:42] <kermitus> yeah it is
[02:43] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - can you give me the make and model?
[02:43] <Flannel> kermitus: like I said, just install the real LAMP stack.
[02:43] <Blonde> orbin i'm not sure
[02:43] <kermitus> Flannel: cant I am useing a book that requires that i use XAMPP
[02:43] <orbin> !sound > geokeratz_ (read pm from ubotu)
[02:43] <Blonde> does it always come up
[02:43] <Clinton__> ajehuk: Philips DVD-ROM DROM6316
[02:43] <Blonde> or do i have to hit a key to make it come up
[02:43] <simon_> I'm having a problem using my wireless card (PCI) WMP54G v2, with the Live CD
[02:43] <Flannel> kermitus: Get a better book then, since that one's rubbish
[02:44] <orbin> Blonde: right before the "orange bar"  what do you see?
[02:44] <kermitus> Flannel: lol sorry i dont work that way.. i fix problems..
[02:44] <kermitus> Flapp: thanks though.. just woundering
[02:44] <Punkunity> ajehuk but what if you close wine?
[02:44] <Wriest> I just installed Xubuntu and I can't get my sound to work?
[02:45] <ajehuk> Clinton__ is that a RW device?? google thinks its a ROM..
[02:45] <Pelo> !sound > Wriest  check your pm windows for instructions
[02:45] <fit4lfe> did you install the alsa drivers
[02:45] <Clinton__> ajehuk: it is CD-RW yes, and yes I've burned many CD's on it previous to installing Feisty (WinXP and Gentoo)
[02:45] <PiNE> sethk, how would i find out what driver to use?
[02:46] <kekles> hey everybody is it possible to change the color of the text in the application launcher on the ubuntu system panel?
[02:46] <ajehuk> Punkunity : you dont close wine... crossover handles it in the background, i.e. when you open visio, wine is started, when you close visio wine is stopped, the data is stored in your home directory, so whether wine is running or not makes no diference
[02:46] <sethk> PiNE, what mouse?
[02:46] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - thought Id best check :) - is it SATA?
[02:46] <vandit2k7> jirib: did you look
[02:46] <fit4lfe> has anyone got linuxmce to work ?
[02:46] <Clinton__> ajehuk: Not quite familiar with SATA, but I believe it all works through PCI
[02:46] <fit4lfe> such a cool project
[02:47] <simon_> PCI?
[02:47] <Clinton__> <-- not a hardware junkie
[02:47] <PiNE> sethk, synaptic touchpad
[02:47] <simon_> If its not SATA my guess would be IDE
[02:47] <fit4lfe> sata is sata serial ata
[02:47] <PiNE> sethk, on a toshiba satellite
[02:47] <fit4lfe> IDE
[02:48] <kekles> is it possible to change the color of the menus on the ubuntu system panel
[02:48] <kekles> ?
[02:48] <BetaCookies> Hey
[02:48] <fit4lfe> ubuntu works with sata
[02:48] <Clinton__> ah yes I see IDE in the lspci as well
[02:48] <sethk> PiNE, can you paste the mouse config from your xorg.conf?
[02:48] <Sivart1> how do i mount my ntfs drive read/write?
[02:48] <asherZ> hi i have a 1600dpi mouse and used the cmd xset m 0 0 to disable mouse accel. but what is the cmd to change sensitivity because i have it on lowest in System> Mouse> Motion> Speed
[02:48] <sethk> PiNE, or just paste the entire xorg.conf
[02:48] <asherZ> and its too fast
[02:48] <PiNE> sethk, yep... it will take me a second.
[02:48] <BetaCookies> Anyone know how to change the screen DPI? It doesn't change when I change it in the Xorg config, it doesn't change when I change it in the gnome config tool for it.. so I'm out of ideas.. I also tried changing it in the gdm config, but no luck
[02:48] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - Hmm, OK then lets start at the beginning... could you install cdrecord? (sudo apt-get install cdrecord)
[02:49] <Tarkus> jrib: alright, i used those instructions. and it mounted it in '/media/hda1' but theres is nothing in there. and the free space that it says is half of the total space.
[02:49] <Pelo> Clinton__,  no need to be a hardware junky,  sata drives are what you are likely to be sold in a new comp these days,    easy way to tell,   IDE drives have those  2 inch straps to plug them in  Sata have a little half inch flat cable
[02:49] <fit4lfe> need help with 56in hdtv display settings
[02:49] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - if not already installed of course..
[02:49] <fit4lfe> I get overscann
[02:49] <vandit2k7> jrib: did you get the link
[02:49] <Clinton__> ajehuk: yup, cdrecord is already installed, I'm going through the man page trying to figure out how to manually burn it, but its a long man
[02:49] <vandit2k7> jrib: what do you think
[02:49] <bluedog> fit4lfe - you are going to need to send that tv to me
[02:49] <Blonde> orbin: still there?
[02:49] <fit4lfe> lol
[02:49] <sethk> Clinton__, usually it's just cdrecord iso-file-name
[02:49] <fit4lfe> funny like clown funny
[02:50] <bluedog> when I get it working I promise to send it back
[02:50] <Pelo> fit4lfe,  you seem to understand yor problem , I suggest you try looking in the forum
[02:50] <harry_> does software installed with Automatix show up in Synaptic? {I'm uninstalling it}
[02:50] <atari2600a> hey
[02:50] <sethk> Clinton__, I use cdrecord -vv iso-file-name.   the dash v v makes it print lots of info while it's burning
[02:50] <ajehuk> Clinton__ can you do a 'sudo cdrecord -scanbus' and drop the output into a pastebin?
[02:50] <fit4lfe> Clinton__  what app you using to burn
[02:50] <atari2600a> can anyone here help me pw/ gparted?

[02:51] <lethu> asherZ, I used to use this --> "xset m 3 10" to change mouse speed under gentoo
[02:51] <Blonde> ok i hit esc key to bring me to a menu
[02:51] <Tarkus> jrib: and i also tried cd'ing to the mount point and typing 'ls' still nothing.
[02:51] <jrib> Tarkus: is there supposed to be stuff there?  How big is it?
[02:51] <Clinton__> it definately lists it as ROM
[02:51] <Blonde> that was the only option before orange bar
[02:51] <IgorSobreira> anybody knows how can i get the w32codecs in apt-get?
[02:51] <jrib> !w32codecs > IgorSobreira (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:51] <Tarkus> jrib: its suppossed to be full of music.
[02:51] <fit4lfe> you have to enable backports to get w32 codecs
[02:51] <lethu> asherZ, you may need to install "xset" though
[02:52] <Blonde> that brought me to a menu to choose generic
[02:52] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - ta - give me a moment
[02:52] <asherZ> lethu: u have 1600dpi mouse also? does this disable accel?
[02:52] <Tarkus> jrib: like more than 75% full, and all music.
[02:52] <Blonde> recovery mode
[02:52] <jrib> fit4lfe: backports don't have w32codecs
[02:52] <asherZ> lethu: how do i inst xset?
[02:52] <Blonde> 2.6.17-11
[02:52] <Blonde> and -10
[02:52] <simon_> I'm having a problem using my wireless card (PCI) WMP54G v2, with the Live CD
[02:52] <fit4lfe> my bad thought they did
[02:52] <jrib> vandit2k7: I never had the pleasure of working with ati on linux, maybe someone else can help
[02:52] <orbin> Blonde: ok, yes, that's grub.  please put my name in front of your posts so it highlights for me
[02:52] <Pelo> Blonde,  please donT' use the enter key as punctuation
[02:52] <lethu> asherZ, nop I have got a regular mouse
[02:52] <fit4lfe> I know I couldn't get apache without it
[02:52] <blastermaster> www.getautomatix.org
[02:52] <atari2600a> gparted doesn't seem to recognize any of my existing partitions
[02:52] <atari2600a> can anyone help me
[02:53] <vandit2k7> jrib: who can help?
[02:53] <BetaCookies> simon_ I don't think you can really do anything about it on the livecd
[02:53] <Punkunity>  Lets Overthrow Proprietary Software
[02:53] <fit4lfe> maybe try pla
[02:53] <jrib> vandit2k7: I don't know, just ask the channel and see if anyone can
[02:53] <Pelo> atari2600a,  how many hdd in your computer ?
[02:53] <Blonde> Orbin: sorry this is actually my first time on irc
[02:53] <atari2600a> 1
[02:53] <Punkunity> go to #FOSSRevolution to do so and help out, be serious
[02:53] <sethk> PiNE, the config looks correct
[02:53] <lethu> asherZ, search through Synaptic
[02:53] <vandit2k7> Hey geys can anyone really help me with AGP problem
[02:53] <Pelo> atari2600a, and what format are these partitons do you knwo ?
[02:53] <atari2600a> I actually installed x-chat, I'm still on the livecd
[02:53] <asherZ> lethu: ok
[02:53] <asherZ> lethu: thanks
[02:53] <jrib> vandit2k7: when you ask your question, include the pastebin
[02:53] <atari2600a> 2 FAT, 2 NTSC
[02:53] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - have you got an iso handy to try and burn?
[02:53] <atari2600a> I plan to remove one of the NTSC
[02:53] <vandit2k7> jrib: thanks
[02:53] <orbin> Blonde: that's ok.  and yes, try and keep everything on one line.  as you can see the channel moves very fast.  ok, at that menu, at the bottom it'll say press e to edit.
[02:53] <lethu> asherZ, you are welcome
[02:53] <Pelo> atari2600a, please use my nick when you talk to me
[02:54] <Clinton__> ajehuk: yup
[02:54] <sethk> PiNE, it's a complex configuration.  I wonder if the wacom stuff is stepping on the touchpad stuff.

[02:54] <Tarkus> jrib: so i type '-sh /media/hda1'
[02:54] <sethk> PiNE, first thing I'd try is changing the protocol.  I'll have to look up what you can change it to.  google for xorg and synaptics and protocol, and see what appears.
[02:54] <simon_> BetaCookies: well I want to test it out before I go through the trouble of setting up a partition and everything. Would i be able to install drivers or whatever is needed from my flash drive?
[02:55] <jrib> Tarkus: no:  du -sh /media/hda1 .  What version of ubuntu is this btw?
[02:55] <Pelo> atari2600a, is it a sata or IDE HDD ?
[02:55] <Blonde> Orbin: yea i saw that and hit "e"
[02:55] <Tarkus> jrib: 7.04
[02:55] <atari2600a> pelo, I'm not sure, it's on my lappy
[02:55] <Tarkus> feisty
[02:55] <PiNE> sethk,  i have a previous xorg saved where my mouse was working fine i will try comparing the two line for line.
[02:55] <atari2600a> pelo, I believe IDE
[02:55] <Cerda> why my ubuntu creates an eth0:avah? i cant connect to internet because of that
[02:55] <orbin> Blonde: press it once, then the screen will change.  you'll see a few lines, one beginning with the word 'kernel'.  higlight it with the arrow keys, then press e again.
[02:55] <Pelo> atari2600a, ok probably IDE
[02:55] <sethk> PiNE, good idea
[02:55] <PiNE> sethk, and i'll google that stuff right now!
[02:55] <Pelo> atari2600a, when gparted is opened do you have any drive listed ?
[02:55] <jrib> Tarkus: weird, I thought everything showed up as /dev/sd* in 7.04
[02:56] <sethk> atari2600a, try running   fdisk -l /dev/hda  (assuming it's your primary master drive)
[02:56] <PiNE> sethk, what is wacom?
[02:56] <atari2600a> pelo, yes, & it says 55gb of unpartitioned space
[02:56] <sethk> PiNE, tablet
[02:56] <Tarkus> jrib: yea, my main drive does, but this one is an IDE drive. not S-ATA
[02:56] <Pelo> atari2600a,  try sethk 's suggestion
[02:56] <atari2600a> pelo, someone from another channel (whom I know) is suggesting pfdisk
[02:56] <atari2600a> pelo, what's the difference?
[02:56] <Tarkus> jrib: ok, it says 4.0K     /media/hda1
[02:56] <orbin> Blonde: that'll let you edit boot options for that sessions (each time you reboot it will revert to the original.  what you want to once you're editing that line is to go to the end with the arrow keys, and delete the word 'splash' from the end.
[02:56] <Pelo> atari2600a, I don't readily know
[02:57] <PiNE> sethk, well, thanks for the help.
[02:57] <vandit2k7> Hi guys can anybody help with AGP problem and ATI card....here's the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19063/
[02:57] <sethk> atari2600a, there are several, fdisk, sfdisk, etc.  fdisk is the primary one, or at least the oldest.  some people find it hard to use.  however, for a list, which is what you want to start with here, fdisk is easy
[02:57] <jrib> Tarkus: ok, so that says there is nothing on the drive, ignore what you got with "Properties".  You are positive there is not another device that can correspond to this disk?
[02:57] <RobbieCrash> If I upgrade to Feisty, will it automatically update my drivers to the new ones that kill my xorg?
[02:57] <RobbieCrash> The new nvidia drivers that is
[02:57] <ajehuk> in that case do a 'sudo cdrecord -v pad speed=1 dev=1,0,0 whatever.iso' where whatever.iso is the full path to your image, I think the dev=1,0,0 is right based on the output of cdrecord -scanbus..
[02:57] <pianoboy3333> Can anyone help me, I'm in an xubuntu live cd, and I'd like to record something, but I can't seem to raise my capture level, or switch my input source to front, a little help anyone?
[02:57] <jrib> Tarkus: libata should make everything show up as /dev/sd* afaik
[02:58] <arconte> cedega has a regedit like windows?
[02:58] <ajehuk> Clinton__ :in that case do a 'sudo cdrecord -v pad speed=1 dev=1,0,0 whatever.iso' where whatever.iso is the full path to your image, I think the dev=1,0,0 is right based on the output of cdrecord -scanbus..
[02:58] <atari2600a> pelo, sethk, what's the -l switch do?
[02:58] <sethk> atari2600a, list.   it lists the partitions on the drive
[02:58] <Clinton__> ajehuk: there, got cdrecord to attempt to record, but it insists the drive is RO.. Im' baffled.
[02:59] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - me too, I assume the media is good?
[02:59] <sethk> atari2600a, if it works correctly, you'll see one line for each partition, you said two fat, and two something else which I don't remember, so you should see four lines, plus some summary lines at the top.
[02:59] <orbin> Blonde: once you've done that, press enter, then press b to boot (i think) ... now, instead of the orange bar, you'll see what's happening in the background (scrolling text).  this should hopefully give you an idea of where the boot process is stopping.
[02:59] <Blonde> Orbin: it reads "grub edit> kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.17-11-generic root=/dev/hda1 ro single" no "splash"
[02:59] <Dremth> Does anyone know the name of a virtual environment that can run windows in linux? I forgot the name of it but I know that it starts with a 'q'
[02:59] <Clinton__> ajehuk: Yup, I got out an old dusty laptop and booted that up and tested a burn
[02:59] <atari2600a> sethk, I'm getting nothing
[03:00] <atari2600a> sethk, fresh line on the terminal window right after the previous is executed
[03:00] <pianoboy3333> Can anyone help me, I'm in an xubuntu live cd, and I'd like to record something, but I can't seem to raise my capture level, or switch my input source to front, a little help anyone?
[03:00] <Clinton__> ajehuk: All I can think of is device failure, good thing I have extra cd-rw drives
[03:01] <orbin> Blonde: hmm, well you shouldn't be getting the orange bar (usplash) then. :-/
[03:01] <Blonde> hmm

[03:01] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - Strange, I cant seem to find anyone else complaining in any forums etc about that drive, and you'd think there'd be one.  I have never had a problem with recording CD's with linux either, even on my old sattelite pro with an external pcmcia + scsi cdrw (4x I think).  Could well be a device failure, but youd think it either 1) would just not burn, or 2) Not work at all..
[03:01] <simon_> Can anyone help me with my wireless card?
[03:02] <Dremth> simon_, what version of ubuntu?
[03:02] <ajehuk> Clinton__ - Ah well thats me out. Good luck
[03:02] <Clinton__> ajehuk: I agree completely...  looks like I get to pull that drive out tonight!

[03:03] <z0rz> I'm trying to configure an onboard nvidia video chipset but I can't get xorg.conf back to it's "auto-detect" "default" setting.  When I startx it just says no screens found.. I think it has something to do with the BusID being wrong (but I don't know what it is (lspci says something like 0:05.0 but BusID is listed as PCI:1:0:0)) How do I get my nv card working again?

[03:04] <RobbieCrash> you're welcome
[03:04] <Dremth> simon_, assuming that's also a yes to your version being 7.04, have you tried using ndiswrapper?
[03:04] <simon_> Dremth: i'll double check on the version

[03:04] <Smaug> ajehuk: ?

[03:05] <MajorPayne> The spell check option is grayed out in Evolution.  Does anyone know how I can de-gray it?
[03:06] <Dremth> simon_, I suggest updating to 7.04. When I updated my wireless starting working out of nowhere.
[03:06] <jrib> Tarkus: do you know what you have to do?
[03:06] <Dremth> simon_, IF that doesn't work, try using ndiswrapper
[03:06] <Tarkus> jrib: no clue
[03:07] <jrib> Tarkus: how did you attempt to mount it before?  (Did you use the "mount" command directly or edit fstab)
[03:07] <MajorPayne> The spell check option is grayed out in Evolution.  Does anyone know how I can de-gray it?
[03:07] <simon_> Dremth: ok, thanks. Is there a separate page for Live CDs?

[03:07] <z0rz> How do I find out the correct BusID for an onboard nvidia video card? lspci says something like 0:5:0, but I don't know how to convert that to a BusID in xorg.conf.. Anyone?
[03:08] <Cerda> anyone has experienced problems with eht0:avah ???
[03:08] <ward_> anyone have an idea what might be wrong?
[03:08] <ajehuk> z0rz : lspci -X used to do that for you, not sure if it still does...
[03:08] <fit4lfe> yeah mine was 3.0
[03:08] <Dremth> simon_, Just go here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download  and download 7.04 and burn to a cd
[03:08] <fit4lfe> for busid
[03:08] <fit4lfe> you can try that
[03:09] <fit4lfe> I also have nvidia card
[03:09] <knapp> hello, I am having trouble with nvidia, what channel should I be in?
[03:09] <fit4lfe> depends what distro
[03:09] <Tarkus> jrib: you sent me a link to a scirpt on ubuntu's website. so i used that
[03:09] <knapp> ubuntu
[03:09] <fit4lfe> whats the problem
[03:09] <orbin> Blonde: not sure how usplash could be appearing.  can you successfully boot into recovery mode?
[03:10] <knapp> failed to initialize nvidia kernel module, I've had this problem like 10 times before, but cant remember how to fix it
[03:10] <alliantdevil> has anyone just recently gotten pakage manager errors?
[03:10] <jrib> Tarkus: ah ok, pastebin output of this please:  cat /etc/fstab && sudo fdisk -l
[03:10] <ekidd_> Is there a good Ubuntu wlan-ng tutorial/troubleshooting guide? I've been Googling for an hour and haven't found anything particularly helpful.
[03:10] <fit4lfe> sounds like you have the wrong kernel
[03:10] <knapp> how can I fix it?
[03:10] <Blonde> orbin: i'll check
[03:10] <knapp> I've tried removing and readding it
[03:10] <fit4lfe> what card do you have
[03:10] <fit4lfe> and what version of ubuntu you running
[03:10] <Blonde> orbin: -10 or -11?
[03:11] <knapp> 7.01
[03:11] <ward_> ekidd_ what goes wrong?
[03:11] <orbin> Blonde: -11 would be best
[03:11] <fit4lfe> what kind of card
[03:11] <fit4lfe> the version
[03:11] <knapp> 6800
[03:11] <orbin> Blonde: do both -10 and -11 freeze for you btw?
[03:11] <ajehuk> z0rz - although I would asume that 00:06.0 woupd be PCI:0:0:6 or AGP:0:0:6 | 00:60.0 becomes PCI:0:6:0 | 06:00.0 becomes PCI 6:0:0 <- although someone else please correct me if I am wrong
[03:12] <ekidd_> ward_: It claims to be able to see the access point, but it times out running DHCP. There's WEP involved.
[03:12] <fsckr> what program do you use to make your desktop be your terminal?
[03:12] <fsckr> hope you know what i mean

[03:15] <knapp> I'm getting "Failed to load nvidia kernel module", 6800, ubuntu feisty
[03:15] <ajehuk> ward_ - I'm looking...
[03:15] <robert98374> wastrel what?
[03:15] <telejedi> ahoi
[03:15] <ward_> ajehuk, thanx
[03:15] <ajehuk> ward_ - is it a Table pc?
[03:15] <ajehuk> *tablet
[03:15] <wastrel>  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[03:16] <ward_> ajehuk, nope, regular, and my internal screen really is 1600x1200
[03:16] <ajehuk> ward - OK I've got a possible solution for you...
[03:16] <knapp> anyone have a suggestion?
[03:16] <orbin> Blonde: well i can assume what it means.  was it front or font?  ... and no, i don't think it takes long.  if it's just stopping there, you might have an issue.
[03:16] <MSTK> does anyone know of a CLI calendar program that supports ICAL syncing?
[03:16] <ajehuk> ward_ - actually no - cancel that, give me a moment
[03:17] <wastrel> MSTK:  there's not a good one
[03:17] <Blonde> orbin: font excuse me
[03:17] <orbin> Blonde: you have two different kernel images too boot from -10 is older.  you probably got -11 in an upgrade.  have you tried booting from both?
[03:17] <Dremth> simon_, I'm assuming you would like an x86 version?
[03:17] <Jove`> Dremth: Try VitualBox
[03:17] <knapp> I'm getting "Failed to load nvidia kernel module", 6800, ubuntu feisty
[03:17] <Jove`> Dremth: Try Virtualbox even
[03:17] <ward_> ajehuk, no prob, take your time :-)
[03:17] <simon_> Dremth: yes
[03:17] <orbin> Blonde: i.e. i'm assuming -11 is the one that's freezing.  tried -10?
[03:18] <Blonde> Orbin: i'll try it now
[03:18] <Dremth> simon_, Here's the link to the torrent: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[03:18] <simon_> Dremth: thanks a lot :)
[03:18] <z0rz> Hmm
[03:19] <Dremth> simon_, If that's still not what you're looking for then here's a list of all the files for this release: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/    < Just scroll towards the bottom
[03:19] <Dremth> simon_, You're very welcome!
[03:19] <pike_> looking for link or advise on using old ata drivers in fiesty. hd performace (while ok) is almost half what it was. what should i blacklist and what should i put in /etc/modules ?
[03:19] <z0rz> If I set the BusID in xorg.conf to PCI:0:5:0, startx will run and I'll hear the start up and I have a mouse, all at my resolution.  Problem is, the screen is all garbled and I can't se anything but dots (my mouse cursor works fine though)  Any ideas?
[03:19] <ajehuk> ward_ take a look at assuming you would like an x86 version?
 Dremth: Try VitualBox
[03:20] <ajehuk> whoops
[03:20] <jordan> hey guys, im having some real problems.. I installed xubuntu-desktop in order to get xfce for one of my users, yet now my login screen is xfce, without a xmdcp option.  I need that option, or preferably the GDM login, how would I do that?
[03:20] <ward_> ajehuk, i don't understand what u're saying
[03:20] <matrix__> hi, does anybody have a joost invitation?
[03:20] <ajehuk> ward_ take a look at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19065/
[03:20] <simon_> Dremth: I can boot from the CD right? and if I can, than that is all :)
[03:20] <Blonde> orbin: i think -10 is freezing up at the same point, unless it just takes a long time.  what do u think that font thing is?
[03:20] <ward_> ajehuk, ok
[03:20] <jordan> matrix__ joost is open now, or at least unlimited invites
[03:20] <Dremth> simon_, Yep
[03:21] <matrix__> jordan:  so would you be so kind to invite me?
[03:21] <jordan> matrix__ can you help me with my problem?
[03:21] <Dremth> ajehuk, I saw his post. Thank you ajehuk and Jove`
[03:21] <Dremth> ajehuk, I was afk sorry

[03:22] <ward_> ajehuk, i'm on it but could you explain what it does? i'm a noob
[03:22] <Dremth> simon_, :)
[03:22] <matrix__> jordan: if i would know what xmdcp option is? i only know that the login depends on wheather i use kdm odr gdm
[03:23] <jordan> matrix__ well how do I make my login screen GDM
[03:23] <jordan> matrix__ instead of xfce
[03:23] <Dremth> ByeByes all!
[03:23] <matrix__> jordan: did you try dpkg-reconfigure gdm?
[03:23] <knapp> Hi, I'm getting "Failed to load Nvidia kernel module" 6800GT UBUNTU FEISTY
[03:23] <robert98374> anyone have any tips on where to learn how to use the terminal?
[03:23] <jordan> matrix__ yes
[03:24] <jordan> matrix__ do I need to restart after that?  I think I did, but i definately logged out / restarted X
[03:24] <matrix__> jordan: try it
[03:24] <fsbp> hello, serisous sudo problems
[03:24] <jordan> matrix__ ok
[03:24] <knapp> Hi, I'm getting "Failed to load Nvidia kernel module" 6800GT UBUNTU FEISTY
[03:24] <orbin> Blonde: not sure on what exactly it means, sorry.  are you running feisty?
[03:24] <matrix__> jordan: sorry didn't pay to much attenion to the look of the login
[03:25] <Blonde> orbin: i dont think so
[03:25] <ajehuk> hello fsdp, anything in particular?
[03:25] <ajehuk> hello fsbp, anything in particular?
[03:25] <fsbp> ty ajehuk: it's talking about the sudo "mode"
[03:25] <Blonde> orbin: well thanks for your help
[03:25] <megaqwerty> I'm trying to upgrade an Edgy box to Feisty but I'm getting this error: http://megaqwerty.pastebin.ca/470074 Any ideas?
[03:26] <ajehuk> fsbp, could you be more specific?
[03:26] <fsbp> ajehuk: it says it's on 0666 and should be on 0440, what does that mean?
[03:27] <fsbp> ajehuk, it also says, at the beggining something like: /etc/sudoers
[03:27] <ajehuk> fsbp, they look like octal file permissions, does it say what its in relation too
[03:27] <AngryElf> Anyone know why I can't drag and drop a theme that i downloaded from gnome-look.org into my themes???? it keep saying invalid file format
[03:27] <ward_> ajehuk, sorry, x starts, my fault, but my screen is unreadable, only a few vertical stripes from one pixer wide or so
[03:27] <jordan> matrix__ restart = no help
[03:27] <asherZ> hey how do i disable computer bleep on error
[03:27] <BetaCookies> AngryElf are you dragging the tar.gz file into it?
[03:27] <asherZ> in fiesty
[03:27] <AngryElf> BetaCookies, yes
[03:27] <jordan> matrix__ by the way, any idea how to send joost invites?
[03:27] <orbin> Blonde: if you got clean boots *before* installing lmce.  i suggest going to their support options.
[03:27] <fsbp> ajehuk: whenever i type sudo in the console, with nothing or anything after it
[03:28] <AngryElf> BetaCookies, GTK 2.x is okay?
[03:28] <ajehuk> fsbp - Ah, I think that the permissions on your /etc/sudoers file is wrong.. - ask someone in here to tell you what it should be and then change it to match
[03:28] <sgtmattbaker> can anyone help me setup gnucash so I can do online banking?  I don't think the standard gnucash from the repos has that functionality out of the box
[03:28] <matrix__> jordan: no, i am currently wondering if it works under linux at all?
[03:28] <ajehuk> ward_ : Ah, gotcha
[03:28] <jordan> matrix__ not in wine, well very limited
[03:28] <BetaCookies> AngryElf I'm still new to Gnome, don't ask me :oP
[03:28] <fsbp> ajehuk: yeah, i was messing with some permissions
[03:28] <matrix__> jordan: perhaps you need an email to send
[03:28] <megaqwerty> I'm trying to upgrade an Edgy box to Feisty but I'm getting this error: http://megaqwerty.pastebin.ca/470074 Any ideas?
[03:28] <GrueTamer> ubuntu should have all the permissions right from the getgo
[03:28] <matrix__> jordan: is joost an standalone application or do you watch in your browser? is ist p2p??
[03:28] <ward_> ajehuk, sorry i explained wrong
[03:29] <GrueTamer> so now, we need to get those permissions to the way they were
[03:29] <jordan> matrix__ stand alone / p2p
[03:29] <fsbp> gt (hello btw): where can i find this
[03:29] <ajehuk> fsbp - you'll have to change them back then.... I assume (I dont use sudo..) that sudo needs its permissions file /etc/sudoers to be protected for it to work...
[03:29] <matrix__> jordan:  oh i see. just opend the wiki entry
[03:29] <fsbp> aight, ill go private with gt and we'll talk
[03:30] <matrix__> jordan: should be a way to run it in linux if it runs on mac
[03:30] <jordan> matrix__ I cant open windows now for opening joost if the invite is in there
[03:30] <jordan> matrix__ whats your email, ill send it asap
[03:30] <ward_> ajehuk, also my nickname is not registerred (will do some time) so i cant send private messages
[03:31] <ajehuk> ward_ nah, I should have asked, - good news tho - I suggest you add some lower resolution modes to the Screen section to see if that helps at all, a good start would be 1280x1024, just add it after "1600x1200", so the line becomes Modes    "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" or similar,
[03:31] <matrix__> jordan: can you open a dcc chat?
[03:31] <ward_> ajehuk, will try that
[03:32] <fsbp> and can someone help me with my secure wlan? it's not working either
[03:33] <fsbp> hello?

[03:39] <Dragnslcr> fr0nk- I already have a GUI app to show the temperatures, I just want to give them meaningful labels, instead of two "Core0 Temp"s, two "Core1 Temp"s, temp1, temp2, and temp3
[03:39] <fr0nk> fsbp: there you should find some hints what fone wrong
[03:39] <fr0nk> Dragnslcr: ah ok sry
[03:39] <blue_> is it possible to use an USB2.0 wifi-stick on a USB1.0 computer?
[03:39] <ajehuk> blue_ should be OK, but it'll be slow
[03:39] <fsbp> fronk: idk if you saw this but: it says it's on 0666 and should be on 0440, what does that mean?
[03:39] <fsbp> (in the sudo
[03:40] <fsbp> )
[03:40] <fr0nk> narker: they are almost the same since they are using either the core2duo hw virtualisation layer or its own meethods to virtualize io
[03:40] <asherZ> hey how do i disable mouse accel completely?
[03:40] <ajehuk> fr0nk : fsbp needs to reset the permissions on his /etc/sudoers file, I have no idea what it should be but I think thats the sollution
[03:40] <fr0nk> narker: on core2duo i couldn't find any(!) speed differences between virtualpc(win), vmware(win) and vmware(linux)
[03:40] <MrKeuner> hi, mp3?
[03:41] <Pelo> !mp3 > MrKeuner  check pm window
[03:41] <fr0nk> fsbp: do you know the root password?
[03:41] <fsbp> pssh yeah
[03:41] <vbabiy> Hey guys where would i start on how to write shell scripts
[03:41] <MrKeuner> Pelo: thanks
[03:41] <narker> fr0nk: I'm using a core duo in my laptop... is a virtual machine software a good solution to run applications like MS Office in Linux?
[03:41] <Pelo> MrKeuner,  no thank you for you brevity
[03:41] <narker> I've tried use those software with Wine and Crossover with no success
[03:41] <fr0nk> type "sudo -s", enter the root password and then "cmod 440 /etc/sudoers
[03:41] <fr0nk> "
[03:41] <gotaku> agentnewb: I think the right drivers are installed, looking at lsmod anyway.
[03:41] <fsbp> dang you're good :D
[03:41] <narker> fr0nk: are those machines fast enough to work with those software's?
[03:42] <ajehuk> fr0nk - mised an h in chmod
[03:42] <ajehuk> *missed
[03:42] <fr0nk> ajehuk: yes, sry :D <- tired
[03:42] <ward_> ajehuk, back, it didnt help
[03:42] <fsbp> ajehuk: ty too
[03:42] <fr0nk> narker: yes, of course
[03:42] <Pelo> narker,  you would hve to install a full os inside the virtual machine
[03:42] <r2d4> I have set up Ubuntu to dual boot with XP. The horizontal monitor settings don't gel well. One ends up slightly off to the screen. While one of my monitors has an auto-adjust setting to correct this the other one does not seem to. Is there a solution for this?
[03:42] <ajehuk> ward_ same symptoms?
[03:42] <ward_> ajehuk, i dunno if it may be important, but if i install ubuntu, the cd boots in 1600x1200 wih the nv driver
[03:42] <knapp_> What channel do I need to be in for help with Ubuntu/Nvidia
[03:42] <narker> yeah I know that Pelo... but I hope it worth more than using Wine or Crossover
[03:43] <SurfnKid> guys im having problems copying files
[03:43] <ward_> ajehuk, yep exactly the same
[03:43] <SurfnKid> there are no duplicates on the folder
[03:43] <fsbp> whats the prob knapp?
[03:43] <Pelo> narker,  I would give some serious thought to using native alternatives
[03:43] <SurfnKid> and it doesnt let me copy a certain file
[03:43] <SurfnKid> what should I do? how do i check the file structure
[03:43] <fr0nk> narker: the performance on a irtual machine on core2duo is on arithmetic operations like +- and so on (which office or photoshop extensively use almost 95%
[03:43] <narker> wow
[03:43] <narker> nice
[03:43] <fr0nk> narker: the only bottleneck could(!) be disk or network io
[03:43] <fsbp> aight bbwl
[03:43] <ajehuk> ward_ hmm
[03:43] <fr0nk> narker: 1gbit lan for example takes about 1ghz of cpu to virtualize
[03:44] <narker> wow
[03:44] <fr0nk> but only if you USE 1gbit
[03:44] <ajehuk> ward_ I assume this is the binary nvidia driver..
[03:44] <Pelo> narker,  it's debatable I tried to run an app I couldnt get an linux version of and I realy didnT' likethe feel , it wasn'T smooth at all,but I am just running a celeron
[03:44] <ward_> yeah offcourse
[03:44] <sgtmattbaker> how do you enable ofx to do online banking? I ran gnucash with --enable-ofx and hbci options and it said that they weren't in the .gnucash/data area
[03:44] <gotaku> Also is setup to use my old integrated sound, how do I set it to use my new card?
[03:44] <mneptok> fr0nk: that's not at all my experience
[03:44] <gotaku> Alsa rather
[03:44] <fr0nk> narker: if you only surf or do a presentation in powerpoint your laptop is kindof oversized
[03:44] <ward_> ajehuk, yeah offcourse, the one ubuntu installs automatically if u want
[03:44] <ward_> ajehuk, the not open one
[03:45] <narker> Pelo: you're talking about using wine/crossover or virtual machine?
[03:45] <Jordan_U> !sound > gotaku
[03:45] <Pelo> sgtmattbaker,  I dn't know if it is the same as in grisbi but I have to dl the ofx file to the desktop and then import it
[03:45] <narker> thank you fr0nk, btw, what are you using? vmware?
[03:45] <thebillywayne> greetings earth_creatures.
[03:45] <fr0nk> mneptok: not? i have a lot of experience in vmware and virtualpc and all the servers i already set up and stress-tested confirmed that
[03:45] <fr0nk> s/virtualpc/virtual server
[03:45] <Pelo> narker,  a virtual machine,   I run wine for a few apps they generaly run well with minor visual problems
[03:45] <mneptok> fr0nk: our 43 VMs run just fine on a Sun Ultra40. it does not have a 43Ghz CPU.
[03:46] <ajehuk> ward_ you tried using the nv driver? the non accellerated free one? just to see if its that? (I dont know how much output you get from X with the closed drivers etc..) if you want to try that I think you change Driver "nvidia" to Driver "nv" in the Device Section...
[03:46] <fr0nk> narker: at the moment virtualpc on my laptop
[03:46] <Pelo> narker,  make that minor gui related problems  but not all of them
[03:46] <Punkunity> http://www.fuckmicrosoft.com/support.shtml
[03:46] <fr0nk> mneptok: erm yes, the 1ghz cpu load is of course only if you ACTUALLY USE 1gbit
[03:46] <SurfnKid> nice website
[03:46] <mneptok> fr0nk: and we do.
[03:46] <SurfnKid> if it only existed
[03:46] <fr0nk> if you have no nw io it uses no cpu
[03:46] <ward_> ajehuk, i'm 100% positive the nv driver works perfectly on my laptop
[03:46] <newuser2> hi
[03:47] <Pelo> sgtmattbaker,  if you only want to do your personnal finance,  I highly recommend grisbi
[03:47] <wimpies> Hi all, I read somewhere that Gtk+ allows changing menu accelerators by hovering the menu and setting a new value.  I tried this but in KDE it does not work.  What might I be doing wrong ?
[03:47] <ajehuk> ward_ --I'm fairly out of ideas, and Ive got to dissappear, I'm getting a bit too tired to think properly - sorry - good luck with it
[03:47] <Pelo> wimpies,  kde does'T use gtk it uses  Qt
[03:47] <Nergar> i need an app or a script to resize multiple images and change the format, anyone know any''
[03:47] <narker> is it a good idea to install the new OS (win xp) for the virtual machine in an external hard drive like my iPod ?
[03:47] <fr0nk> mneptok: try it out and stress-test the vms with nw io. I'm pretty shure about the 1gbit/1ghz
[03:48] <Nergar> ??
[03:48] <fr0nk> narker: NO!
[03:48] <mneptok> fr0nk: i assure you, the network loads here are quite high
[03:48] <narker> ok
[03:48] <chump_> Nergar: why don't you use gimp ?
[03:48] <Nemes> Nergar: do you want to resize all the images at the same time?
[03:48] <Pelo> narker,  I think you might get better answer to those questions in #vmware
[03:49] <Nergar> chump_, need to resize 100+ images
[03:49] <wimpies> pelo : I know but the app I use is a gtk app
[03:49] <chump_> ok
[03:49] <chump_> hehe
[03:49] <mneptok> fr0nk: disk IO is a far bigger VMware bottleneck than network
[03:49] <Nergar> Nemes, yes, and to the same size
[03:49] <Pelo> Nergar,  I think you havwe a lot of work to do
[03:49] <blue_> OMG, my wifi-stick just works!!
[03:49] <newuser2> im new to linux .. when lunch the " add/remove Applications" the dialog freeze why ? , and when i browse the games list .. the whole system freeze :(  can any one help ? im using the latest ubuntu
[03:49] <Nergar> Pelo, theres no script to help me out?
[03:49] <blue_> couldn't do that on fedora in 5 hours :-D
[03:49] <mneptok> Nergar: ImageMagick
[03:49] <Pelo> wimpies, I personnaly have never heard fo the feature you mentionned,  perhaps you can try asking in a gtk channel
[03:50] <blue_> on ubuntu in 5 minutes :-)
[03:50] <Pelo> Nergar,  I wouldn'T think so
[03:50] <steve__> hey
[03:50] <fr0nk> mneptok: that's right but disk io and nw io are the same kinds of "bad" ring 0 calls the virtual layer has to virtualize so the only reason disk io stresses the vm way more is there is heavier disk io
[03:50] <Jordan_U> blue_, :)
[03:50] <steve__> what would the command line be to switch from beryl to metacity?
[03:50] <Pelo> Nergar,  a channel like  #gimp-users might know of one
[03:50] <vbabiy_> hey guy can some please point me in the correct way to start wiring scripts for ubuntu
[03:50] <steve__> i tried metacity --replace
[03:50] <Pelo> steve__,  try asking in #beryl
[03:50] <Jordan_U> steve__, metacity --replace I believe
[03:51] <mneptok> fr0nk: that seems self-evident
[03:51] <steve__> thank ya
[03:51] <b-rad> hello everyone :)  Got a slight issue this evening that I can't seem to find a solution for.  I just rebooted my laptop tonight, and it cannot see my wireless adapter.  lcpci shows it, but it's not configured anymore...  anyone have any ideas?  Thanks :)
[03:51] <fr0nk> mneptok: if you actually used 43x1gbit your disk storages (even with fibrechannel) would show you the middle-finger
[03:51] <Nergar> mneptok, i tried aptitude install imagemagick but no gogo :(
[03:52] <mneptok> fr0nk: that's disk IO. not network.
[03:52] <gesus> hello --> how can i list all of the files/directories in a directory tree? thanks
[03:52] <gesus> actually just the directories
[03:52] <mneptok> gesus: ls -R
[03:52] <fr0nk> yes but everything that comes from the network has to be saved either in ram or disks
[03:52] <newuser2> m new to linux .. when lunch the " add/remove Applications" the dialog freeze why ? , and when i browse the games list .. the whole system freeze :(  can any one help ? im using the latest ubuntu
[03:52] <Pelo> gesus,  in nautilus,  menu > display > side pannel ,  top of the pannel , click the arrow,  treeview
[03:52] <mneptok> gesus: ls -R | grep drwx
[03:53] <marcin_ant_> hi all
[03:53] <Nergar> mneptok, i already have imagemagick but how do i run it??
[03:53] <levon> hey guys im trying to get a game controller working it uses the usb ports
[03:53] <mneptok> Nergar: IM is a library. it is called by other apps or scripts.
[03:53] <Nergar> :(
[03:53] <marcin_ant_> could someone tell me _why_ there is no password for root in mysql-server package?
[03:54] <fr0nk> Nergar: for example you can use imagemagick with the "convert" command
[03:54] <levon> i have te driver for xp this controller is a retractable recoil geame elements
[03:54] <Flannel> marcin_ant_: because Ubuntu doesn't have a root password.  So you have to manually set your mysql root password.  It's easy enough to do.
[03:54] <levon> *game

[03:55] <timewriter> does ubuntu 7.0 support the uguru microprocessor from ABit ?
[03:55] <timewriter> !uguru

[03:56] <Nergar> mneptok, reading man convert :P
[03:56] <marcin_ant_> Flannel: is there any particular reason why there is no "wizard" in package postinst procedure that could allow to input this password?
[03:56] <xSUSHix> How do I make it so gdm selects a certain session for certain users?   For example I want KDE to be loaded when user 'kde' logs in   and I want XGL to be the session when user 'xgl' logs in
[03:56] <newuser2> can any one help ??
[03:56] <Nemes> newuser2, just aks
[03:56] <Nemes> *ask
[03:56] <newuser2> i asked
[03:56] <Flannel> marcin_ant_: Because no one's found a need for one yet.  If you're doing mysql administration, you ought to be comfortable enough to setup your root user on mysql.
[03:56] <marcin_ant_> Flannel: and also why one has to use command line instead of for example dpkg-reconfigure?
[03:57] <newuser2> when lunch the " add/remove Applications" the dialog freeze why ? , and when i browse the games list .. the whole system freeze :(  can any one help ? im using the latest ubuntu
[03:57] <Flannel> marcin_ant_: because you're not really using the command line.  You're using mysql's interface
[03:57] <gesus> Flannel, it seems as though it is listing them (i.e. the hd spins faster etc) but ls -aR | grep drwx doesn't return anything?
[03:57] <Pelo> newuser2, random freezes are difficult to diagnose,  don'T hope for a miracle solution
[03:57] <marcin_ant_> Flannel: I don't agree with you
[03:57] <underwatercow> if you install something with a .deb file, is there a way to uninstall it? or do you have to find an uninstall file?
[03:57] <calc> if the whole system freezes it is likely a hardware problem
[03:57] <timewriter> i just installed 7.04
[03:57] <timewriter> amazing
[03:58] <calc> underwatercow: using a package manager yes
[03:58] <Munchkinguy> timewriter: I imagine there's only one way to find out: use the live cd.
[03:58] <marcin_ant_> Flannel: I think that there is a lot of people that are used to mysql + phpmyadmin
[03:58] <newuser2> it allways freeze in the same part
[03:58] <timewriter> Munchkinguy sorry ?
[03:58] <underwatercow> calc: eh?
[03:58] <timewriter> i dont understand that
[03:58] <Pelo> newuser2, turn on the system monitor and see if any process starts to take up all your cpu when you perform those dangerous actions
[03:58] <Flannel> marcin_ant_: well, go ahead and write one
[03:58] <Flannel> gesus: you *need* the l
[03:58] <calc> underwatercow: you can uninstall a deb using a package manager or "dpkg --purge packagename" on the command line
[03:59] <underwatercow> k, thanks
[03:59] <Flannel> gesus: the -a is just for hidden stuffs, but the -l is what gives it the long format (which you can then grep for directories)
[03:59] <xSUSHix> How do I make it so gdm selects a certain session for certain users?   For example I want KDE to be loaded when user 'kde' logs in   and I want XGL to be the session when user 'xgl' logs in
[03:59] <gesus> Flannel, ahh thankyou !!
[03:59] <marcin_ant_> Flannel: and they need search for info how to log into their server and then use terminal to set password
[03:59] <marcin_ant_> Flannel: ok, I will
[03:59] <Pelo> xSUSHix,  check in the forum
[03:59] <mneptok> marcin_ant_: who needs to search?
[03:59] <xSUSHix> Pelo you're always so helpful
[04:00] <timewriter> :)
[04:00] <Pelo> xSUSHix, beleive it or not I actualy am
[04:00] <Flannel> marcin_ant_: well, there's a guide to do it (right there), and plenty of other documentation on it out there.
[04:00] <YNWA> Does anyone here use shortcut keys on their keyboard - like Email, or Web browser, Play/Stop keys?
[04:00] <mneptok> marcin_ant_: any DB admin worth a penny is not scared of the command line.
[04:00] <Flannel> !mediakeys | YNWA
[04:00] <ubotu> YNWA: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[04:01] <cilaes> crimsun you in here?
[04:01] <xSUSHix> Pelo : wanna look for it for me ?  I couldn't find anything
[04:01] <newuser2> gnome-app-insta  is taking alot of my cpu and memory ,, and its not working
[04:01] <YNWA> flannel: thanks
[04:01] <xSUSHix> I usually search the web first and come to IRC as a last resort
[04:02] <b-rad> I really don't want to reinstall this again.  Freakin intel wireless just ups and disappears on me... first time it's happened..  and yet, I haven't changed anything
[04:02] <YNWA> flannel: but my computer is a laptop - it has a built in keyboard... would keytouch work still?
[04:02] <Munchkinguy> timewriter: The defaut Ubuntu disc allows you to try it out on your computer before installing. That way, you can see if it works with your hardware.
[04:03] <timewriter> Munchkinguy , the uGuru microprocessor has nothing to do with that
[04:03] <r691175002> hi
[04:03] <timewriter> i already installed ubuntu and it runs flawless
[04:03] <Pelo> b-rad,  then it might just be something minor, review the instalation proceedure,  check with the last few lines, just incase you didnT' make it automatic or something
[04:03] <timewriter> the uGuru is an overclock and monitoring processor from ABit
[04:03] <r691175002> I have a problem
[04:03] <Pelo> r691175002, yes
[04:03] <r691175002> Everything is slightly blurry
[04:04] <r691175002> the fonts, icons, images, even pixel art online
[04:04] <Pelo> r691175002, what kind of monitor ?
[04:04] <Munchkinguy> I see

[04:04] <timewriter> i can live with that :)
[04:04] <Nergar> thanks y'all for the help
[04:04] <Munchkinguy> I imagine you could do it in your CMOS, anyhow.
[04:05] <Pelo> r691175002, check in menu > system > prefs > fonts ,  and set the hinting to subpixel
[04:05] <r691175002> ok
[04:05] <Pelo> Nergar,  congrats
[04:05] <chump> you are welcome Nergar
[04:05] <Nergar> :)
[04:05] <chump> even though i haven't helped much hehe
[04:05] <r691175002> it made it better, but some of the icons are still a bit blurry
[04:06] <b-rad> Pelo: it's been up for a few months.. been testing :)  I got it, though... had to disable the intel restricted driver, reboot, re-enable, reboot again and I'm back in business
[04:06] <Munchkinguy> Argh. Where's Matthias Klose?
[04:06] <underwatercow> what is with these dependencies? nautilus-sendto depends on gaim?
[04:06] <r691175002> its not just fonts, images are blurred too, http://www.fabrica.it/blog/uploads/EBOY-sm.jpg doesnt look like it should

[04:06] <Aliyahh> www.fxtrademaker.com WOW ..!!!
[04:06] <underwatercow> you uninstall gaim and you lose ubuntu-desktop and nautilus-sendto
[04:06] <Aliyahh> www.fxtrademaker.com WOW ..!!!
[04:07] <gesus> Flannel, the command "ls -d /media/drive3/*" seems to be more like what i want, but how could i make that command also list subdirectories (I don't need any other info like date created or whatever) thanks again.

[04:08] <Pelo> r691175002, I would suggest you try looking into xorg.conf to adjust your screen specs possilby,  or try looking up your monitor model in the forum for a possibly fix
[04:08] <Aliyahh> Ubuntu www.fxtrademaker.com WOW ..!!!
[04:08] <r691175002> how do you open xorg.conf?

[04:12] <gesus> Hi, I am trying to just list the names of directories and subdirectories on one of my drives, the command "ls -d /media/drive3/*" seems to be close to what i want, but how could i make that command also list subdirectories (I don't need any other info like date created or whatever) thanks everyone on this channel for always being so helpful, i love you :).
[04:12] <timewriter> try /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:12] <Pelo> r691175002,  I donT' knwo I dont, have to use that feature,  if your hardware requires a restricted driver it installs it , if not you have to do it manualy
[04:12] <Flannel> gesus: add -R
[04:12] <r691175002> ok

[04:15] <Pelo> SpeakerMania,  I( think you have the same modem as me ( but i only use the fax)
[04:16] <wastrel> i thought USR's were hardware modems
[04:16] <marcin_ant_> mneptok: it's not about a command line it'a about lack of information, imho pkg should just ask for root password and that's all
[04:16] <Pelo> SpeakerMania, check in the device manager first ,  look for you modem,  find the /dev/ttys?   address
[04:16] <marcin_ant_> mneptok: I just wonder if is there any particular reason why it doesn't
[04:16] <telejedi> underwatercow: coolest irc-client :-)

[04:31] <Django84> i used this and it worked, restored grub
[04:31] <Pelo> !grub > Django84  I think you'll need to reinstall grub , chck your pm window for instruicons
[04:31] <Flannel> Pelo: he just reinstalled grub
[04:31] <sgtmattbaker> wastrel: I guess.. I have not ever actually successfully compiled a program from source
[04:31] <Pelo> Flannel, sorry I'm lagging a bit

[04:32] <a5benwillis> How do I get ez_setup.py to work on Ubuntu?????
[04:32] <BryanJK> why does Firefox keep crashing so much? I get this in Terminal ... Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[04:32] <Django84> ok, when i select ubuntu i got error17. I edited menu.lst and tried to move partitions numbers and it worked, but when i reboot a few times using XP i got the same trouble.
[04:33] <wastrel> what's ez_setup.py
[04:33] <drif> anyone with a cure - I using putty & ubuntu and getting garbled characters when typing   or similar character
[04:33] <Flannel> drif: Make sure it set PuTTy to use utf-8
[04:33] <drif> locally no probs
[04:33] <mneptok> drif: tell puTTY to use UTF-8
[04:34] <Django84> so I think something is making it go to an old menu.lst. Or something is modifyng order of menu.lst partitions
[04:34] <alex_mayorga> crdlb, is there a wireless IRC channel ?
[04:34] <drif> flannel & mneptok: 5am here :D evidently something slips from your mind.. thanks guys
[04:35] <Flannel> drif: also, make sure (if you use them) that screen and irssi are set to utf8
[04:35] <drif> flannel: using screen as we speak - works ok after setting putty up
[04:35] <crdlb> alex_mayorga: I think this is the right channel for your kind of question

[04:36] <Nemes> a5benwillis, ez_setup.py is a python file. I think that you need to run "python ez_setup.py" in order to run it.
[04:36] <Flannel> bieb: doing fine. yourself?
[04:37] <bieb> not bad at all
[04:37] <bieb> Any good projects going on?
[04:37] <sgtmattbaker> linux
[04:37] <Pelo> lecaros, it should be easy enough, it's a live cd , you just need an unallocated partion on a drive,  or did you hve a specific issue ?
[04:37] <BlackDalek> What is the key combination to exit from GParted when I have no mouse connected?

[04:40] <Nemes> a5benwillis, do you have the python interpreter installed?
[04:40] <telejedi> PinkFloyd: 24 is the answer!
[04:40] <timewriter> how do i install GTK engine ?
[04:40] <BlackDalek> Ok... I asked the wrong question - GParted is already exited - what I meant was how do I exit the Gnome Partition Editor GUI shell and reboot the computer? ( the computer was booted from the GParted CD)
[04:40] <Pelo> Django84,  the ppl in this channel are all voluntieer users who share their time and knowledge to thelp other users,   we donT, knwo everything , we can only help you if we have knowldege of your problem
[04:40] <wastrel> timewriter:  apt-cache search gtk-engines
[04:40] <wastrel> timewriter:  if the one you want is listed, just install normally
[04:41] <BlackDalek> Ok... I asked the wrong question - GParted is already exited - what I meant was how do I exit the Gnome Partition Editor GUI shell and reboot the computer? ( the computer was booted from the GParted CD) ... keeping in mind I have no mouse connected, so am looking for the key combination to do this
[04:41] <jbernhardt> BlackDalek: Just use the Ubuntu cd to boot up the Ubuntu Live OS from CD and use gparted from there
[04:41] <lecaros> pelo, i need first to backup some information
[04:41] <Pelo> BlackDalek,  sudo reboot
[04:41] <Django84> ok, im so novice and i taught that this was a common problem Ubuntu
[04:41] <lecaros> BTOH that computer has not NIC
[04:42] <Pelo> lecaros,  I suggest you use the os already isntalled to do that,   and run a defrag if you have to
[04:42] <bieb> PinkFloyd. du will give you a list of the directories and their size, df -h will tell you what size each volume and how much is used
[04:42] <timewriter> thanks
[04:42] <lecaros> yeah, but hasn't cd recorder
[04:42] <PinkFloyd> ah ok

[04:42] <Pelo> lecaros,  hold on
[04:43] <alex_mayorga> crdlb, do you know how do I enable the wlan interface, it says disabled in lshw
[04:43] <timewriter> there are many engines listen
[04:43] <timewriter> listed*
[04:43] <timewriter> which one should i use
[04:43] <Pelo> Django84,  the change you made using the grub menu editor is temporary, you need to make it permanent by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:43] <BlackDalek> jbernhardt, Pelo - the problem is I am alread booted into the Gparted CD, and I'm trying to get out of it without a mouse. I can't click on the shutdown Icon or workout how to highlight it... or anything else on the screen. Do I have no choice but to switch off the power to the computer or press the reset switch?
[04:44] <crdlb> alex_mayorga: I don't have a clue; as I said, I am unfamiliar with the chipset, sorry
[04:44] <jbernhardt> BlackDalek: sudo shutdown -r

[04:49] <matthew1429> whoops
[04:49] <jbernhardt> crdlb: the browser could require IE

[04:49] <wastrel> timewriter:  up to you :] 
[04:49] <matthew1429> sorry

[04:49] <lecaros> pelo nothing, there isn't usb
[04:49] <crdlb> that's what useragent spoofing is for
[04:49] <eg_linux> from where ubuntu is come ??
[04:49] <eg_linux> from France?
[04:49] <dfischer> Pelo: its not the fan it overheats
[04:49] <matthew1429> actually... I have a better version

[04:50] <PloneDude> eg_linux: south africa
[04:50] <lecaros> pelo only 1
[04:50] <Zwei> Well, right now, I'm running Ubuntu off the DVD.  I've been trying to install it, but I understand I have to partition my hard drive to do so.  When I partition during the installation, it gives me an error saying that the partition failed.
[04:50] <matthew1429> according to that message I should be able to pass their compatibility test
[04:50] <crdlb> matthew1429: do you have flash9 installed?

[04:51] <matthew1429> crdlb: I'm using feisty

[04:51] <matthew1429> with medibuntu
[04:51] <dfischer> Pelo cpufeq is working, but it heat anyway
[04:51] <matthew1429> I presume it's update
[04:51] <jbernhardt> Zwei: or just try defragging
[04:51] <Pelo> lecaros,  ok so the only solution you have atm is to resize your original partition,  create a new one,  move your data to the new partition
[04:51] <eg_linux> PloneDude: what ?
[04:51] <crdlb> matthew1429: about:plugins
[04:51] <crdlb> type that in the browser

[04:51] <_RodrigoVB_> lecaros, serial si
[04:52] <lecaros> ok
[04:52] <Pelo> lecaros,  gparted in the live cd should be able to do it but resizing a partition is always risky which is why we tell ppl to backup first
[04:52] <matthew1429> :/ i have flash 9 and a windows media player 10 compatible player for totem
[04:52] <Zwei> I don't see gparted.  Do you mean Gnome Partition Editor?

[05:11] <Nergar> crdlb, kk
[05:11] <sethk> eck, but that's ancient history, solaris v4.  solaris v5 and newer is system V
[05:11] <sethk> eck, and solaris v5 goes back to the early 90's.
[05:11] <eck> sethk: ah, i see
[05:11] <timewriter> anyway , this nimbus theme looks great
[05:12] <timewriter> is the official solaris theme
[05:12] <sethk> eck, I like system V.   Ubuntu uses the system V methodology for init and stuff in the /etc directory
[05:12] <sgtmattbaker> sethk: but how do I follow the wiki with a new version.. there is no ./configure in there.. there is some weird dpkg-build bs ------- and a bunch of other stuff
[05:12] <Braddf0rd_> Ubotu, do I "sudo apt-get install 915resolution"?
[05:12] <SexyBoBo> what ftp server you guys recomend?
[05:12] <sethk> sgtmattbaker, if it's a CVS version, then there is a step before the ./configure step.
[05:12] <timewriter> Braddf0rd for ati ?
[05:12] <Xenguy> SexyBoBo: vsftpd
[05:12] <crdlb> Braddf0rd_: ubotu is a bot, but yes
[05:12] <sgtmattbaker> proftpd
[05:13] <sethk> sgtmattbaker, but that's usually only true if you pull via CVS
[05:13] <FearMoth> Hi, how can I configure my Intel 3945ABG wireless to use WPA TKIP/PSK ?
[05:13] <Xenguy> SexyBoBo: lean, secure
[05:13] <Braddf0rd_> crdlb, K, I'm a nub,  thanks
[05:13] <WesLappy> Anyone have a few minutes to help me get my wireless networking up and running? I have ralink2571 chip (rt73 driver from serialmonkey)
[05:13] <eck> sethk: i'm looking at the solaris wikipedia page right now. it's nice they released a version called sun os and solaris, and then retroactively named one of the bsd releases solaris 1
[05:13] <sgtmattbaker> sethk: I don't know if it is, I cant tell from the wiki
[05:13] <timewriter> guys , this ubuntuguide.org , is maintained by the community ?
[05:13] <SexyBoBo> any other opinions?
[05:13] <crdlb> timewriter: yes, it's completely unofficial
[05:14] <sethk> eck, yes, that's true.  It was originally called sun OS, before it became solaris 4.  I'd forgotten that.
[05:14] <timewriter> :)
[05:14] <crdlb> timewriter: I prefer wiki.ubuntu.com strongly over it though
[05:14] <Xenguy> SexyBoBo: avoid wuftpd
[05:14] <timewriter> ok
[05:14] <timewriter> i never knew about that website
[05:14] <timewriter> bookmarking
[05:14] <sethk> crdlb, wuftpd is fine as long as you don't mind having your machine open to invasion by the universe.
[05:14] <matthew1429> i click on firefox and it says "starting firefox" and then disappears unless I click on the tab, then it will actually start firefox.  isn't that weird?
[05:14] <SexyBoBo> will do i was planing on vsftpd (easy to install) just wondering if there is any better
[05:14] <Xenguy> sethk: heh
[05:14] <SexyBoBo> ty for your help
[05:14] <timewriter> ubuntu runs great with 2gb of ram :)
[05:15] <Xenguy> np
[05:15] <sethk> timewriter, even vista runs great with 2 gb of ram  :)
[05:15] <timewriter> indeed
[05:15] <timewriter> :))
[05:15] <timewriter> well , i had just 1gb , but i bought Gothic 3
[05:15] <walkintome> hi all! I keep getting a segmentation fault while running evolution, gnome-system-monitor, and a few other apps. I dont know what is causing this behavior, but would really like to fix it.
[05:15] <Chetwi1> I can't find the extra repos list
[05:15] <timewriter> next morning i was at the store
[05:15] <Begin9Now> hello there, I have installed Ubuntu Feisty Fawn on a Dell 260 with nVidia GeForce 2 MX, the screen is an Viewsonic 19" 16:9 ratio wide screen that can do 1440x900 at 60hz and nothing I did makes Ubuntu give that screen resolution. It defaults to 1280x1024. I installed the nVidia driver from Universe, tried to modify the xorg.conf but no success in the end. Has anyone been able to do the wide format in 1440x900 on Ubuntu 6.06 and up???
[05:15] <timewriter> for another 1Gb
[05:15] <timewriter> that game is insane
[05:16] <sgtmattbaker> sethk: what should I do?  I need* to get gnucash working with OFX online banking compatibility
[05:16] <sethk> Begin9Now, I have, although not on that exact nvidia card.  try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.  when you get to the monitor section, select "medium" difficulty level.  You'll then be presented with all the resolutions/freqs that the installer thinks the card/monitor can handle.
[05:17] <crdlb> Begin9Now: did you try using nvidia-settings?
[05:17] <sethk> sgtmattbaker, all your choices are somewhat nasty.  We could try to see what's wrong with configure, but that can be a lengthy process.
[05:17] <crdlb> Begin9Now: you should have used nvidia-glx, not -legacy
[05:17] <sethk> sgtmattbaker, did you google, see if other people are seeing this problem, possibly have a fix?
[05:17] <crdlb> if you used legacy, that could be the problem
[05:17] <Begin9Now> yep, there is not much you can change, did use the legacy 96...driver
[05:17] <timewriter> i wonder why the music producers are using mac and not solaris
[05:17] <patbam> was there some change in policy on permissions on mounting external usb devices since dapper
[05:18] <timewriter> or the movie producers
[05:18] <patbam> cuz the drive i had worked then
[05:18] <sgtmattbaker> anyone gonna see Spiderman 3
[05:18] <crdlb> Begin9Now: yes the 96xx is correct
[05:18] <crdlb> Begin9Now: try using nvidia-settings
[05:18] <Xenguy> sgtmattbaker: definitely
[05:18] <sgtmattbaker> it looks awesome
[05:18] <Xenguy> sgtmattbaker: I enjoyed the other 2...
[05:18] <Xenguy> sgtmattbaker: I'm a sucker for comics most of the time :-)
[05:19] <sgtmattbaker> I would go see it tonight but I dont wanna see it before I go w/ my friend Sat
[05:19] <timewriter> anyone knows if i can install fglrx control panel ?
[05:19] <Ghiddo> okay
[05:19] <sethk> timewriter, there's a prevailing thought that mac is the thing to use for music.  It isn't true, IMO, but it's a widespread belief.
[05:19] <crdlb> !info fglrx-control
[05:19] <ubotu> fglrx-control: Control panel for the ATI graphics accelerators. In component restricted, is optional. Version 8.34.8+2.6.20.5-15.20 (feisty), package size 75 kB, installed size 344 kB
[05:19] <crdlb> timewriter: ^^
[05:19] <timewriter> yep
[05:19] <Ghiddo> I apparently screwed something up while upgrading to Feisty
[05:19] <timewriter> ive seen it on apt-cache search
[05:19] <Begin9Now> which settings are you saying can be changed?
[05:19] <crdlb> timewriter: are you using fglrx?
[05:19] <timewriter> im a little mentally lagged
[05:19] <timewriter> crdlb yes
[05:19] <Ghiddo> can I step back in the recovery console
[05:19] <crdlb> then why not?
[05:19] <timewriter> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV530 [Radeon X1600] 
[05:20] <matthew1429> i click on firefox and it says "starting firefox" and then disappears unless I click on the tab, then it will actually start firefox.  isn't that weird?\
[05:20] <slim> where would i go for software specific help (obtained from a repository)??
[05:20] <sethk> matthew1429, yes, it's weird.  officially weird.  :)
[05:20] <sethk> slim, depends on what software
[05:20] <sgtmattbaker> sethk: I guess I could do it by source and then do the other things that the wiki says
[05:20] <slim> azeurus
[05:20] <timewriter> crdlb u think i should install xorg-driver-fglrx ?
[05:20] <sethk> sgtmattbaker, worth a try.
[05:21] <crdlb> timewriter: use the restricted manager
[05:21] <IowaDave> slim: which software?
[05:21] <awpti> damn, i still can't get prboom working right.
[05:21] <jshriver> Anyone know how to use mencoder to create .rm files? I did it a year or so ago but forget the mencoder arguments to export to .rm
[05:21] <jshriver> or ffmpeg
[05:21] <awpti> locks up any time i hit the fire button :(
[05:21] <crdlb> timewriter: that is your only option for 3d acceleration
[05:21] <timewriter> enable the accelerator ?
[05:21] <slim> software named "Azeurus"
[05:21] <matthew1429> jshriver: I typed that in my reference
[05:21] <matthew1429> lemme see
[05:21] <timewriter> slim azureus is dodgy
[05:21] <crdlb> timewriter: if you need 3d support you need to enable the restricted driver in the restricted manager
[05:21] <crdlb> which is fglrx
[05:21] <timewriter> i did
[05:21] <timewriter> it asks for reboot
[05:21] <crdlb> timewriter: then reboot
[05:22] <timewriter> now u got to let me knooow
[05:22] <timewriter> should i stay or should i gooo
[05:22] <jshriver> matthew1429: I checked the mencoder docs.. didnt see anything and been googling for a while.. tons of page on how to convert .rm to divx or any other format, but not from x format to .rm
[05:22] <levon> hello i have a question how do you kill a process i use to press ctrl + alt  + esc to brink up a skull then click
[05:22] <jshriver> trying to convert some home videos in MOV to rm for use on the web
[05:22] <slim> it was the best program on windows but using a microsoft product is no longer an option! so im pretty screwed then???
[05:22] <matthew1429> jshriver: i know your pain
[05:22] <matthew1429> i ended up finding a good google page
[05:22] <matthew1429> but bear with me
[05:22] <crdlb> jshriver: why real?
[05:22] <matthew1429> I pasted the command to a text file
[05:22] <phy3> slim, /join #azureus    maybe?
[05:23] <slim> is that a channel?
[05:23] <jshriver> small and quality isnt an issue... this is a 114meg MOV file, figured in RM it would only be about 5-10 megs
[05:23] <Flannel> !azureus | slim
[05:23] <ubotu> slim: azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AzureusHowTo
[05:23] <phy3> yes
[05:23] <jshriver> 8minute clip
[05:23] <awpti> Hrm..
[05:23] <crdlb> jshriver: there are many other formats much better than real
[05:23] <eck> levon: the skull program is xkill, just create a keyboard shortcut for it
[05:23] <jshriver> dont know of any other format that a windows user could use that is that small
[05:23] <crdlb> jshriver: just use mpeg4
[05:23] <levon> aww okay
[05:23] <crdlb> at a low bitrate
[05:23] <jshriver> hrm...
[05:23] <slim> im not having a problem installing (ive been using the software for months)
[05:24] <crdlb> ie xvid
[05:24] <jshriver> but can it be used in Windows Media player? basically my mom only has access to the web where she works, and I know if I encode to rm she can view it on the webpage.
[05:24] <levon> thank you
[05:24] <mrkrfdaf> if a usb drive that is formated with ext3 gets moved to another machine or new version of ubuntu will there be permision issues?
[05:24] <abg> i was trying to make my terminal transparent, but not to the desktop background image, to windows directly behind it. can anyone give me a nudge in the right direction for how to set that up?
[05:24] <Flannel> slim: ah.  Well, it ought to be fairly similar regardless of windows vs *nix.
[05:24] <jshriver> mrkrfdaf: nope, but could be funky since it will have a different name associated with the number
[05:25] <eck> mrkrfdaf: it depends if the UIDs match
[05:25] <levon> need it to get wine to run nsfu woot thanks so much
[05:25] <crdlb> jshriver: mencoder cannot encode real or wmv afaik
[05:25] <slim> it just stopped working???? ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling
[05:25] <crdlb> mpeg4 (in some form) is your best bet
[05:25] <timewriter> oioi
[05:25] <jshriver> Il try converting to avi mpeg4 then, and cross my fingers :) thanks
[05:25] <Hamm_laptop> i still can't boot into linux
[05:25] <catid> just reformatted a usb harddrive and now it's owned by root and my normal user account cannot edit it..  how do i fix this?
[05:25] <Hamm_laptop> damn
[05:25] <timewriter> i have a better resolution now
[05:25] <mrkrfdaf> so how do i disable all permisions on the drive
[05:25] <sethk> catid, which file system?
[05:25] <slim> the least of my worries is that it was 92%done with a 4gb file
[05:25] <mrkrfdaf> or set the allow for everyone?
[05:26] <jshriver> btw have another question... I accidently ran grub-install /dev/hda1 instead of /dev/hda now I cant dual boot back into windows
[05:26] <IowaDave> slim: I see online that some networks are clamping down on p2p traffic. could be your net?
[05:26] <jshriver> any suggestions?
[05:26] <catid> sethk: reiser4, compression plugin
[05:26] <crdlb> abg: you need a composite manager
[05:26] <eck> mrkrfdaf: add the drive to the new system and use a find command to fix the permissions once you know what they should be
[05:26] <sgtmattbaker> sethk: I don't think this is gonna work.. that 2.0.5 source doesn't have a debian/rules file toe dit
[05:26] <crdlb> abg: compiz, beryl, xfwm4, xcompmgr
[05:26] <theconartist> azureus is crashing instantly after i start it, is this a common/known etch bug?
[05:26] <slim> its the program it loads into the main window and then just closes itself
[05:26] <jshriver> beryl is beautiful but buggy
[05:26] <sethk> catid, you can use chown -R on the root directory to change the ownership of all the files.  Or you can do    chmod -R a+rw    on the root directory to change all files to read/write for all.
[05:26] <slim> exactly conartist
[05:27] <mrkrfdaf> but it shouldnt make my unaccesable?
[05:27] <sethk> catid, you can of course also change it to read/write for group.
[05:27] <catid> sethk: yes.. will that persist between mounts?
[05:27] <IowaDave> slim: might check to see whether the download site supports rsync. if the dl halts, rsync can sometimes pick up where it left off.
[05:27] <sethk> catid, yes
[05:27] <catid> sethk: sweet, thanks
[05:27] <crdlb> abg: if a composite manager is running when gnome-terminal starts, it will use real transparency
[05:27] <slim> except ive been using it all day and then rebooted my comp and that was it...
[05:27] <sethk> catid, on file systems with real permissions, things persist.  It's only faked out permissions (like on VFAT) that go away.
[05:28] <slim> the program worked fine 60 mins ago
[05:28] <abg> crdllb: and any one of those would do that for me?
[05:28] <timewriter> crdlb i get that warning now
[05:28] <Clinton__> !flash
[05:28] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[05:28] <slim> and for thwe last week straight actually
[05:28] <timewriter> with the restricted drivers in use
[05:28] <timewriter> how du i get rif of it
[05:28] <timewriter> do*
[05:29] <crdlb> abg: any one of those composite managers would work, beryl/compiz is preferable though since they're 3d compositors
[05:29] <slim> do all BitTorrent clients work like 'azeurus'
[05:29] <Hamm_laptop> anyone know the command to reconfigure xorg.conf
[05:29] <Hamm_laptop> to default
[05:29] <eck> slim: how do you mean?
[05:29] <Hamm_laptop> unistalling fglrx did not fix my problem :/
[05:29] <sgtmattbaker> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:29] <abg> crdlb: alright, great. thank you very much
[05:30] <crdlb> Hamm_laptop: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:30] <crdlb> Hamm_laptop: choose ati
[05:30] <crdlb> like I said
[05:30] <Clinton__> !flash
[05:30] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[05:30] <slim> thats the only BitTorrent program ive ever used (and the best p2p) i always used limewire or kazaa so i just search in the program itself rather than on tthe net
[05:30] <crdlb> Hamm_laptop: use the -phigh or you will be bombarded with questions
[05:30] <Flannel> !frostwire | slim
[05:30] <ubotu> slim: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[05:30] <slim> is it bittorrent??
[05:30] <eck> slim: in that sense all the other bit torrent programs are like azureus
[05:32] <theconartist> so nobody knows about the azureus problem?
[05:32] <slim> because i have a reliable torrent resourse but i just need something to d/l the whole program after i have the torrent
[05:32] <Xenguy> theconartist: but you're a con artist, I'm not going to believe that =)
[05:33] <Hamm_laptop> thanks...rebooting now  ....
[05:33] <burnerx> what is a good html/php editor ?
[05:33] <theconartist> gedit
[05:33] <Hamm_laptop> rofl
[05:33] <Hamm_laptop> notepad
[05:33] <cntb> 7.04 upgrade failed after retries - pls look http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19074/
[05:33] <slim> the newest windoze version of azeurus is great!!
[05:33] <theconartist> im serious though
[05:33] <Xenguy> burnerx: I guess vim is a bad suggestion? ;-)
[05:33] <Hamm_laptop> HEY IT WORKED  TYTYTYTY ecK!!!
[05:34] <burnerx> uh.... all valid... i was hoping for one with a nice GUI
[05:34] <slim> but thats a whole MS having control over me thing i just wont do
[05:34] <theconartist> gedit has syntax highlighting and snippets and stuff
[05:34] <vbabiy> hey guys how can i get a bash script pormt for a root password
[05:34] <theconartist> burnerx, what do you mean by a nice gui
[05:34] <cntb> slim how relevant to ubuntu ?
[05:34] <danlock2> burnerx Notepad++
[05:34] <slim> im sorry
[05:34] <Xenguy> burnerx:  nvu?
[05:35] <slim> that azeurus problem was it
[05:35] <burnerx> okay
[05:35] <theconartist> danlock2, i thought that was windows only
[05:35] <danlock2> theconartist.... i didn't think so, i'll check tho
[05:35] <Xenguy> burnerx: not sure what level of php support is built in
[05:35] <riddlebox> is there an easy way to setup an extra monitor, like dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[05:35] <slim> if some1 could suggest a good bittorrent ill qiut harrasing every1 :) thanx guys
[05:36] <mrkrfdaf> Does fiesty fawn also do a profile migration for previous versions of ubuntu?
[05:36] <vbabiy> hey guys i how can i have root clear out my trash i can't get it to clean it out in my account
[05:36] <Hamm_laptop> ati radeon 9800 se     ......     should I just stick with the default driver if i want to use beryl?
[05:36] <Xenguy> burnerx: check it out I guess; there is 'eclipse' too if you want enterprise level IDE, but could be overkill
[05:36] <crdlb> riddlebox: if it's an nvidia card, nvidia-settings makes it easy
[05:36] <crdlb> Hamm_laptop: yes
[05:36] <Hamm_laptop> ok
[05:36] <riddlebox> crdlb, it is a matrox card
[05:36] <crdlb> no idea then
[05:36] <burnerx> thanks Xenguy
[05:36] <theconartist> burnerx, there is scite
[05:37] <Xenguy> burnerx: np - bluefish is minimal, if you like that better
[05:37] <theconartist> i personally still use gedit
[05:37] <theconartist> jedit is good also
[05:37] <danlock2> http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/nppLinux.php
[05:37] <vbabiy> how can i have root clear out my trash i can't get it to clean it out in my account
[05:37] <Xenguy> burnerx: quanta too
[05:37] <slim> any suggestions for a good bittorrent client or should i just pick one??
[05:38] <eck> cntb: it's probably ok to just disable backports for now, there isn't anything in it atm anyway
[05:38] <mrkrfdaf> ktorrent is the best on ubuntu
[05:38] <burnerx> i'll use gedit first
[05:38] <crdlb> slim: deluge for gui, rtorrent for cli
[05:38] <Xenguy> slim: you probably need a blocklist also; azureus has that
[05:38] <Xenguy> slim: heavy-weight tho
[05:38] <Xenguy> slim: java
[05:39] <eck> vbabiy: as root: rm -rf ~your_username/.Trash/*
[05:39] <vbabiy> eck: i do that but i still gut a ton of .ram files in there and no idea what they are
[05:39] <Flannel> eck, vbabiy, no.  ~yourusername is wrong.  Either, /home/username/ or ~
[05:39] <yell0w> eck,  ~ is already home folder
[05:39] <drif> slim: running torrentflux on my monitorless server - although might not be what you're looking for
[05:39] <eck> yes, but as root you must use ~usernmae to get to someone else's homedir
[05:40] <slim> ok thanx alot guys , sorry im still only a week into linux/ubuntu and its still taking some getting used to, you have all been very helpful thank you
[05:40] <Xenguy> aye
[05:41] <yell0w> eck, i believe root's ~ is /root
[05:41] <vbabiy> hey eck do you know if its possible to have a bash script bring up the gnome sudo prompt
[05:41] <Xenguy> yell0w: yep
[05:41] <vbabiy> yell0w: yeah
[05:41] <eck> yell0w: yes, but someone else's home directory is ~username
[05:41] <sethk> yell0w, eck, correct, root's $HOME is /root
[05:41] <sethk> eck, that's c shell syntax.  ~ is the home directory, not ~username
[05:41] <eck> sethk: no, read the section on tilde expansion in the bash man page
[05:42] <eck> ~ is _your_ home directory
[05:42] <sethk> eck, well, don't get personal, now  :)
[05:42] <eck> haha
[05:42] <yell0w> @_@
[05:42] <Xenguy> sethk: depends on the user I expect
[05:42] <yell0w> geez how hard is it to do /home/...
[05:43] <jerky> vbabiy: gnome-sudo should do that
[05:43] <a5benwillis> Guys, why wont muyth play an avi file?
[05:43] <Xenguy> yell0w: never! :-)
[05:43] <dibblego> every time I edit a text file (vi/gedit), I try to remove the newline (0x10) at the very end, it comes again; why can't I have a file without a newline at the end?
[05:43] <vbabiy> jerky:  thanks
[05:43] <sethk> yell0w, well, the point is that it isn't always /home, and the shell will use the configuration to find out where a user's home actually is.
[05:43] <Xenguy> a5benwillis: vlc
[05:43] <a5benwillis> Trying to play a downloaded movie.. but it just flashes "loading" real fast and goes away
[05:43] <mneptok> vbabiy: you want gksudo
[05:43] <a5benwillis> Xenguy: So I need to change the player?
[05:43] <sethk> dibblego, you can if you use an editor that doesn't force this.  vi and gedit force it because the gnu compilers get really bitchy if it isn't there in a source file.
[05:44] <dibblego> sethk, any suggestions?
[05:44] <Xenguy> dibblego: ^M  ?
[05:44] <hurt> !kde
[05:44] <dibblego> no, it is a single 0x0A character
[05:44] <zilly66> is ubuntu studio just ubuntu feisty with lots of necessary packages built in?
[05:44] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE version is 3.5.6 for Feisty and Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information.
[05:44] <Xenguy> a5benwillis: try vlc; you might like it
[05:44] <dibblego> Xenguy, no, it is a single 0x0A character
[05:44] <sethk> dibblego, you can write a program to do it easily enough.  why do you care?
[05:45] <Xenguy> dibblego: nfc
[05:45] <BungaDunga> greetings... anyone want to help me figure out partitioning?
[05:45] <dibblego> sethk, because I am doing difference compression and I want to know my exact input
[05:45] <timewriter> i wonder if solaris can handle Jmicron
[05:45] <cholera> if my printer is not supported in ubuntu, what are my options for finding a way for it to work
[05:45] <ghost> does anyone know where i can find doc about how to set up ubuntu to authenicate windows
[05:45] <dibblego> cholera, VMWare + Windows
[05:45] <Flannel> zilly66: something like that... yeah.  Ask in #ubuntu-studio
[05:45] <sethk> dibblego, ok.  let me see ...
[05:45] <eck> ghost: using AD?
[05:45] <BungaDunga> gparted only sees one 74 GiB unallocated partition...
[05:46] <sethk> dibblego, I vaguely recall a configuration option for it, but I'm not sure whether it was vim, or another vi, or even emacs.  let me check the man page.
[05:46] <BungaDunga> I have, as far as I know, two partitions on one drive, one taking up almost all of it
[05:46] <ghost> i am trying to get away from my win2k3 server and use unix as my PDC to windows
[05:46] <dibblego> sethk, emacs seems to have removed it for me, thanks
[05:46] <BungaDunga> the other is tiny, 4GB and I want to install Ubuntu to it
[05:47] <eck> ghost: you can use pam + ldap to do it if you are using AD to do authentication, afaik you cannot do it with old nt style domains
[05:47] <majd> what command do i use to get the version of ubuntu i'm using?
[05:48] <eck> majd: lsb_release -a
[05:48] <BungaDunga> arright, nevermind it's two HDs that Windows sees as one
[05:48] <ploom> BungaDunga, could it be that you have more than one disk?
[05:48] <majd> eck, thanks
[05:48] <ploom> BungaDunga, you have a hardware raid?
[05:48] <ghost> eck, i am not using any nt domains, just want to get away from ms as a server and go plain unix as a PDC and my winxp as the desktop
[05:49] <BungaDunga> I believe so, my C is like 150 GB and D is like 4
[05:49] <ghost> eck, i heard it can be done but i have to setup samba and possibly kerbos
[05:49] <aoeuhtns-> anybody know why X uses 800x600 even though 1024x768 is the only option in xorg.conf?
[05:49] <a5benwillis> Xenguy: Nope, changing to VLC didnt work either
[05:50] <BungaDunga> and I'd like to install Ubuntu to what shows up as D in Windows.
[05:50] <a5benwillis> guess I'll get it working outside of myth first.
[05:50] <zwh> hi everybody
[05:50] <majd> damn..i cant find any good tutorials on installing subversion...it can't be as easy as apt-get install subversion...
[05:50] <majd> oh..on dapper
[05:50] <a5benwillis> majd: Thats it. simple
[05:50] <majd> how would it know where my code is?
[05:50] <a5benwillis> sudo apt-get install subversion
[05:51] <a5benwillis> what code?
[05:51] <sethk> majd, similar to CVS.  CVS uses an environment variable, CVSROOT
[05:51] <cholera> dibblego: have you heard of turboPrint, it's not free but vmware does not seem to work with cannon i9xxx
[05:51] <ploom> BungaDunga, i can not help you about getting the array to work (in case you really have that two disk raid or something), but please dont bother touching the disks separately
[05:51] <majd> sethk, i've never used either =\
[05:51] <riddlebox> crdlb, if I do a fresh install will feisty see that I have my regular graphics card, and this new matrox card?
[05:51] <BungaDunga> right, that'd screw everything up.
[05:51] <ExxonValdeez> anyone done any screencasting with beryl?
[05:52] <sethk> majd, ok.  most subversion users are using it partly because, if you know how to use CVS, you know how to use subversion also.
[05:52] <a5benwillis> majd: Are you just trying to get subversion installed?
[05:52] <crdlb> riddlebox: afaik there's not automated way to set up Xinerama
[05:52] <majd> a5benwillis, yeah...but i found a cool site that shows how to configure it
[05:52] <crdlb> you have to do it by hand
[05:52] <a5benwillis> majd: OPen synaptic... search for subversion
[05:52] <vbabiy> hey where would be the best place to store my custom scripts
[05:52] <a5benwillis> ah
[05:52] <majd> a5benwillis, i'm using ssh
[05:52] <sethk> majd, the answer to your question is that there is a root repository directory, and then specific projects have a name, called I believe a module name in the docs.
[05:52] <majd> so apt-get install subversion
[05:52] <vbabiy> so all user can run them
[05:52] <majd> already did it
[05:52] <a5benwillis> majd: enabled X?
[05:52] <crdlb> vbabiy: /usr/local/bin/ ?
[05:52] <eck> ghost: i haven't had to do it myself, but i believe you can do it with just pam + ldap, which would be easier than doing the whole kerberos thing
[05:52] <timewriter> lol super nintendo emulator
[05:53] <vbabiy> thanks
[05:53] <a5benwillis> majd: If you already installed it whats wrong?
[05:53] <lxuser> some know why gnomebaker takes too long to copy a dvd as a image, with k3b is fast, using now 7.04 feisty
[05:53] <sethk> majd, then it's installed.  Check out a howto about CVS.
[05:53] <majd> sethk, ok, but i'm already working on a project, is it possible to just change the root svn directory to that?
[05:53] <atrus> my mouse appears to be using the lmpcm_usb driver. How can i tell it not to, that is, to just use the regular hid support?
[05:53] <majd> a5benwillis, i don't know how to configure it
[05:53] <timewriter> does this ps1 emulator work ?
[05:53] <sethk> majd, yes, you can set the environment variable to point anywhere you like.
[05:53] <eck> ghost: see this, for example http://adminspotting.net/articles/windows/Linux-and-Active-Directory.html
[05:53] <a5benwillis> by installing from the repository its already configured
[05:53] <majd> a5benwillis, to /var/www/ ?
[05:53] <a5benwillis> you could remove it and get the source from apt
[05:53] <cholera> are there other solutions for getting a printer driver thats not supported in ubuntu. TurboPrint is not free and I don't think vmware will work
[05:54] <sethk> a5benwillis, he doesn't mean subversion source.  subversion is a source code control system.
[05:54] <a5benwillis> majd: Its going to download the files in whatever folder youre in when you execute it
[05:54] <jersht> wow
[05:54] <a5benwillis> majd: Is that what you want to control?
[05:54] <ExxonValdeez> beryl and screencasting? i have used a few apps to record but am having a tough time using ffmpeg to convert the vids to a smaller size
[05:54] <keram> hello
[05:55] <keram> i have apache, apache2, and php5
[05:55] <Parmenion> hi
[05:55] <jersht> ubuntu is so user friendly and easy to use - I just pop the CD into my nvidia based system and ... OOPS
[05:55] <a5benwillis> Why did it get SO busy in here all of a sudden???
[05:55] <keram> and when i try to run a php file it tries to downlaod it
[05:55] <Parmenion> a5benwillis: :P
[05:55] <kintaro0e> hi guys..is there a tool that will monitor you client desktop who are downloading too much files and consumes bandwidth?
[05:55] <jersht> NO UBUNTU FOR YOU!
[05:55] <keram> how do i make the server run the php files?
[05:55] <Parmenion> 1154 users her
[05:55] <sethk> a5benwillis, I was assuming he wants to be a server, not a client, but it's more likely he wants to be a client.
[05:55] <Flannel> keram: you need libapache2-mod-php5
[05:55] <Flannel> keram: well, for apache2 anyway.
[05:55] <majd> a5benwillis, to be honest, AFAIK, svn lets you keep backups of code history when you commit...so that's all i want to do...just commit and rollback ( i think that's what it's called)
[05:55] <a5benwillis> sethk: Ah, I have no idea how to do that. GOOGLE time lol
[05:55] <majd> because sometimes i make a change and i want to go back
[05:55] <Parmenion> guys ... my xubuntu alternate install disc is borking on me
[05:55] <keram> ah okay
[05:55] <Parmenion> which really sucks
[05:55] <jersht> ugh
[05:56] <jersht> how do I boot into CLI
[05:56] <a5benwillis> Is it morning in the UK or something?
[05:56] <sethk> majd, you want to look at RCS then
[05:56] <Parmenion> something about bsd-utils being unclean
[05:56] <majd> RCS?
[05:56] <majd> is that a different versioning system?
[05:56] <jersht> I need to boot without GUI to load nvidia blah blah
[05:56] <sethk> majd, you only need something like CVS or subversion for a project with multiple developers
[05:56] <Parmenion> a5benwillis: its 1156am in singapore :P
[05:56] <a5benwillis> time for bed here lol
[05:56] <ghost> eck, it looks like is still wants you to have a AD on the network which is something i am trying to get away from.
[05:56] <majd> sethk, i see
[05:56] <Flannel> Parmenion: verify md5, burn at 4x, then check the CD
[05:56] <a5benwillis> 1156pm
[05:56] <sethk> majd, RCS is the source code control system underlying CVS.
[05:56] <mneptok> jersht: just switch to a different TTY
[05:56] <sethk> majd, it has check in, check out, you can check out an old version, roll back, what you want to do.
[05:56] <ghost> eck, but if it is the only way then i may have to keep it running just to assist in authenicating
[05:57] <Parmenion> Flannel: md5 is verified, already burnt it at 4x ... now going to check the cd
[05:57] <majd> sethk, ok perfect...and if i have other devs working on the same project, then i'd need subversion?
[05:57] <eck> ghost: you can host openldap on a linux box and make it look like AD
[05:57] <majd> what's the difference?
[05:57] <sethk> majd, it's really quite easy.  after you install, the check in program is "ci" and the check out program is "co".
[05:57] <UnluckyMike> Parmenion: what od are you burning the cd from
[05:57] <mneptok> jersht: and nVidia driver issues are a social problem, not technical
[05:57] <keram> Flannel, i'm also having some trouble starting the apache2 service
[05:57] <UnluckyMike> *os
[05:57] <keram> Flannel, i had apache and apache2 installed, but only apache was running and apache2 wouldnt start
[05:57] <sethk> majd, yes.  cvs or subversion adds things like merging multiple changes, updating your code to reflect other people's changes, etc.
[05:57] <Flannel> keram: that's because apache is already listening on port 80, most likely.
[05:57] <ghost> eck, thats an idea, how do i set that up to work
[05:57] <keram> ah
[05:57] <Flannel> keram: that's correct.
[05:58] <keram> Flannel, so i should remove apache and delete /etc/apache/ ?
[05:58] <Parmenion> UnluckyMike: windows XP :P the only other box next to my target system which has a wired connection
[05:58] <mneptok> majd: have you not decided on an RCS system?
[05:58] <majd> sethk, oh wow...that's pretty intense
[05:58] <majd> mneptok, no i just found out about it
[05:58] <vbabiy> what packages is it that allows you to right click and say open terminal here
[05:58] <mneptok> majd: /join #bzr
[05:58] <sethk> majd, don't worry about it to start with.  :)
[05:58] <Flannel> keram: no.  Don't delete /etc/apache, the package manager will do that for you.  Remove apache, and apache-common, and purge them (or complete removal via synaptic), that'll remvoe /etc/apache
[05:58] <mneptok> majd: you want to know about Bazaar before you choose CVS (blech) or svn
[05:58] <UnluckyMike> Parmenion: someone else was having this problem, try to google alex feinman iso recorder, or something like that
[05:58] <sethk> majd, bzr is a newer alternative to RCS that I've heard some good things about
[05:59] <Parmenion> UnluckyMike: any suggestions for burning software which give more fine-grained control ?
[05:59] <Parmenion> ok thanks mike
[05:59] <crdlb> !info nautilus-open-terminal | vbabiy
[05:59] <SexyBoBo> is there a gtkradiant built for ubuntu in any repositories?
[05:59] <jersht> I have 3 choices - generic, generic recovery mode, and memtest86 .... how do I get to a CLI ?
[05:59] <vbabiy> thanks crdlb
[05:59] <keram> Flannel, okay
[05:59] <mneptok> majd: no one chooses cvs these days. they only have it thrust upon them.
[05:59] <majd> sethk, mneptok, i just remembered, i was referred to bazaar a while ago, but i never thought much of it...thanks a lot..i'll setup it up now (looks like they have good docs)
[05:59] <jersht> do I need +v to talk ?  Can anyone see this ?
[05:59] <Flannel> jersht: yes
[06:00] <jersht> oh ok good.
[06:00] <keram> Flannel, is there a way of doing that through the command line?
[06:00] <jersht> I have 3 choices - generic, generic recovery mode, and memtest86 .... how do I get to a CLI ?
[06:00] <wims> anyone have an idea on how i can access my ext3 and ntfs partitions from within vmware ?
[06:00] <eck> ghost: look for the samba documentation. basically you put the information in an ldap store and tell samba to get the user data from ldap, and samba looks like AD to the windows clients
[06:00] <mneptok> majd: Canonical is responsible for both Ubuntu and Bazaar ;)
[06:00] <Parmenion> ok UnluckyMike if the thing borks again, ill use iso recorder
[06:00] <Flannel> jersht: Boot generic, then hit ctrl-alt-f1, and you'll get to a terminal
[06:00] <crdlb> jersht: recovery will give you a root command line
[06:00] <majd> mneptok, oh i think that's how i found out about it
[06:00] <keram> how do you purge theM/
[06:00] <jersht> Flannel : no can do.  even starting the GUI freezes the system (nvidia card)
[06:00] <sethk> jersht, memtest86 is a separate thing that you boot.  grub is smart enough to boot it, and the standard ubuntu installation installs it as a bootable thing
[06:00] <jersht> Flannel : I need to boot _without gui_
[06:00] <crdlb> jersht: then use recovery
[06:01] <jersht> yeah I did
[06:01] <jersht> freezes when gui starts
[06:01] <sethk> jersht, you can boot into debug mode, which will not start the gui
[06:01] <jersht> ok how do I get to debug ?
[06:01] <crdlb> jersht: the gui doesn't start in recovery mode
[06:01] <sethk> jersht, I believe it's init level 1.
[06:01] <eck> ghost: for example http://aput.net/~jheiss/samba/ldap.shtml
[06:01] <jersht> crdlb: well, then that's that.
[06:02] <Parmenion> ok UnluckyMike, thanks again ... Im just waiting for the cd integrity check to pass ... If not, its a new cd and iso recorder
[06:02] <crdlb> unless you manually startx or something
[06:02] <jersht> I guess "nvidia" cards must be extremely rare and barely ever seen
[06:02] <sethk> jersht, init level 1 is single user mode, which doesn't start the gui.  telinit 1 will do it if you have a prompt.  when the gui freezes, try doing control-alt-f1, which should give you a prompt
[06:02] <jersht> because man, ubuntu has no idea what to do with it.  can't do a normal install, must do text, and then can't boot at all.
[06:02] <Parmenion> jersht: hardly ... nvidia cards are generally better supported
[06:02] <DShepherd> has anyone here dual booted vista and ubuntu? how easy was it?
[06:02] <sethk> :q
[06:02] <ghost> eck, how do i configure ldap and i looked at samba some of it is a little confusing.  On item is that how do i put the win box on to the linux network
[06:02] <crdlb> jersht: yes support for nvidia cards isn't great, what card is it?
[06:03] <crdlb> because of the proprietary drivers
[06:03] <keram> Flannel, okay i did aptitude purge apache and apache-common but when i restart apache2 it still does not run
[06:03] <jersht> Parmenion : I'm being sarcastic.  I have one of those cards that requires "evil" code that cannot be in ubuntu.  or whatever.
[06:03] <Parmenion> guys, any tips for a samba config ?
[06:03] <jersht> crdlb : it is a quad-head PNY NVS-440
[06:03] <jersht> 4 x 1920x1200
[06:03] <Parmenion> jersht: :P yeah ... thats why i stick to standard intel :P
[06:03] <jersht> and ubuntu just explodes with it.
[06:03] <crdlb> jersht: you installed nvidia-glx ?
[06:03] <crdlb> not -new
[06:04] <keram> Flannel, also it didnt delete /etc/apache
[06:04] <jersht> uhmmm...no I can't even boot ... at all.
[06:04] <jersht> so there has not been any chance to install *
[06:04] <Neronious> can anyone reccomned a good opensource web page creater like dreamweaver?
[06:04] <keram> http://rafb.net/p/whoAp056.html
[06:04] <Flannel> keram: This is feisty? or what?
[06:04] <SexyBoBo> is there a gtkradiant built for ubuntu in any repositories?
[06:04] <Parmenion> Neronious: scribus:P
[06:04] <danlock2> Neronious, i can give you a key for Dreamweaver ;-)
[06:04] <keram> Flannel, feisty?
[06:04] <jersht> I can;t get into recovery mode, can't get to anything.  had to install with text alternate CD.
[06:04] <Flannel> keram: what version of ubuntu?
[06:04] <keram> Flannel, not sure, how can i check?
[06:04] <Flannel> keram: lsb_release -a
[06:05] <keram> edgy
[06:05] <keram> 6.10
[06:05] <scurker> I have a quick question on upgrading to fiesty...
[06:05] <Neronious> /w danlock2 im all ears
[06:05] <Parmenion> scurker: ask the question, dont beat aroudn the bush :P
[06:05] <scurker> I was upgrading from Edgy to Fiesty and was having no problems when my system power got shut off during the middle of the upgrade.
[06:05] <jersht> so when I try to boot it gets to:    [   531.317465]  [06:05] <zedfloyd> here is a really dumb question... i somhow changed IRC so i have to click return with the mouse is used to be able to just hit return.... HELP
[06:05] <scurker> Now it essentially locks up any time I try to boot into Linux.
[06:06] <jersht> and that is with safe mode ... or protected mode, or whatever
[06:06] <jersht> have to hard reset because ctrl-alt-del won't even work.
[06:06] <keram> Flannel, 6.10 - edgy
[06:06] <Flannel> keram: eh.  Try it with apt-get aptitude does some funky things: sudo apt-get remove --purge apache apache2-common
[06:06] <zedfloyd> here is a really dumb question... i somhow changed IRC so i have to click return with the mouse is used to be able to just hit return.... HELP
[06:07] <crdlb> zedfloyd: what client?
[06:07] <keram> Flannel, apache2-common or apache-common?
[06:07] <scurker> I'm just not sure what to do at this point, I have a live CD but I'd prefer to avoid a clean install if at all possible
[06:07] <zedfloyd> chatzilla
[06:07] <crdlb> you didn't change irc itself :)
[06:07] <timewriter> is there any mac os look alike dock for ubuntu ?
[06:07] <Parmenion> scurker: its unlikely you can recover your data unless you kept /home on a separate partition
[06:07] <Flannel> keram: er, sorry.  apache-common
[06:07] <jersht> nobody has ever seen the system lock at:   [   531.317465]  [06:07] <crdlb> zedfloyd: dunno use xchat
[06:07] <Parmenion> scurker: most viable option is a fiesty reinstall
[06:07] <keram> Flannel, still nothing
[06:07] <agresor> Hello
[06:07] <scurker> Sadly, no.
[06:07] <scurker> That's what I was afraid of. =)
[06:08] <agresor> anyone had ever try to install Webcam Genius EYE on ubuntu linux ??????? I have Genius webcam Eye and i cant instann i even dont have drivers for it.... :(((
[06:08] <Parmenion> UnluckyMike: yep ... the integrity check failed ... I'll test iso recorder now.. thanks again mate
[06:08] <ghost> eck, is setting up the ldap only requiring a few commands.
[06:08] <sethk> scurker, having /home separate would not have prevented your problem
[06:09] <UnluckyMike> no prob
[06:09] <wepeel> ok I successfully upgraded from 6.06 to 6.10, but have lost mplayer functionality in firefox. Anyone have any ideas? firefox will not launch mplayer as an embedded app
[06:09] <crdlb> wepeel: uninstall totem-mozilla
[06:09] <jersht> what is ubuntu doinng when all those numbers fly by:   [   531.317465]     ?   what state is the boot in ?
[06:09] <crdlb> and make sure mplayer-mozilla is installed
[06:09] <aoeuhtns-> I erase the contents of /var/run/motd but it comes back each time I boot, what gives
[06:10] <jojoman02> anyone know a good linux/windows cross platform video chat software?
[06:10] <wepeel> crdlb: did it already, no change. also installed mozplugger and have the codecs installed
[06:10] <crdlb> wepeel: you don't want mozplugger, you want mplalyer-mozilla
[06:10] <Flannel> keram: hmm.  I... can't seem to figure out what package installs /etc/apache.  Do this: `dpkg -S /etc/apache` what package does it retunr?
[06:10] <wepeel> try removing mozplugger?
[06:10] <crdlb> wepeel: check about:plugins to see what's overriding mplayer
[06:10] <wepeel> I have mplayer-mozilla
[06:10] <crdlb> wepeel: yes
[06:10] <scurker> Well thankfully most of my work was on my Windows partition, so I did not lose too much.
[06:10] <zedfloyd> I have ubuntu fiesty version... how do i get flash... im very very new...
[06:11] <bimberi> aoeuhtns-: it's rebuilt by /etc/init.d/rcS.d/S80bootmisc.sh at each boot

[06:11] <keram> then reinstalled apache2
[06:11] <Morrissey> Hi. Would anyone please explain why amarok doesnt seem to find any of my mp3 files? At least not in the collection ... its OK when I add them manually, but it wont find any files in my mp3 dirs (though there are plenty!)
[06:11] <crdlb> because if totem-mozilla is installed it will override mplayer-mozilla
[06:11] <Parmenion> scurker: next time, keep /home on a separate partition :P would save your data
[06:11] <timewriter> im switching monitor
[06:11] <timewriter> brb
[06:11] <zedfloyd> I have ubuntu fiesty version... how do i get flash... im very very new...
[06:11] <jojoman02> %C12anyone know a good linux/windows cross platform video chat software?
[06:11] <wepeel> crdlb: no, just totem. removing totem-mozilla and mozplugger now
[06:12] <keram> Flannel, but back to my original problem, the php scripts arent being run on the server
[06:13] <wepeel> crdlb: working now. I appreciate your help!
[06:13] <Flannel> jojoman02: Ekiga implements h.323, so you can talk to netmeeting and... well, dozens of other standard compliant videochat things
[06:13] <Flannel> keram: did you install libapache2-mod-php5
[06:13] <DShepherd> has anyone here dual booted vista and ubuntu? how easy was it?
[06:13] <scurker> Well the data was the least of my concern. I keep good backups. I was just hoping there was a shortcut around a fresh reinstall. ;)
[06:13] <keram> Flannel, ah okay its working, needed to clear the cache :P
[06:13] <scurker> Thanks for the help!
[06:13] <zedfloyd> I have ubuntu fiesty version... how do i get flash... im very very new... anyone anyone?
[06:14] <keram> thanks a lot for the help Flannel
[06:14] <keram> wooo
[06:14] <quidam> hola
[06:14] <Flannel> !flash | zedfloyd
[06:14] <Flannel> zedfloyd: Er, basically just enable multiverse (thats a repository), then it'll show up in your stuff
[06:14] <zedfloyd> hi flannel... not sure what that means...
[06:15] <jojoman02> Flannel, thanks, does h323 work w/o opening a million ports?
[06:15] <zedfloyd> i just installed ubuntu 2 days ago
[06:15] <Flannel> jojoman02: Uh, Im not too sure.  I think theres only a few.  But, you might check wikipedia or something
[06:15] <Andrepose> how do i bring up a network card that appears when I do lspci and it's not in ifconfig
[06:15] <Andrepose> ?
[06:15] <Flannel> !multiverse | zedfloyd
[06:15] <Flannel> hmm, ok.  scrap ubotu.  Let me grab you a URL
[06:16] <zedfloyd> what does the ! mean with the word multiverse?? Help... i know its probably a dumb question
[06:16] <sethk> zedfloyd, ! usually means "not"
[06:16] <crdlb> zedfloyd: it's supposed to call the bot
[06:16] <Flannel> zedfloyd: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[06:16] <seamus7> hi... I'm about to reinstall Feisty / ...... I have a separate /home partition ... what directory in root has all the packages currently installed that I would save and use to bring my system back?
[06:16] <crdlb> zedfloyd: but the bot is dead
[06:16] <crdlb> (ubotu)
[06:17] <aoeuhtns-> what is the ubuntu equivalent of rc-update (gentoo) or chkconfig (redhat) ..?
[06:17] <Flannel> zedfloyd: follow the "Adding Universe and Multiverse" instructions
[06:17] <zedfloyd> thanks Flannel
[06:17] <wepeel> ok, another mplayer question. when I try to play anything in mplayer, it flashes the same error mesage over and over and stutters. I think it's an audio message, but I can't see it. Any ideas?
[06:17] <Flannel> seamus7: /var/cache/apt/archives has the debs.  but, "dpkg -l" will print all your currently installed packages
[06:18] <wepeel> but it doesn't happen in embedded video
[06:18] <RTzRa> hi
[06:18] <crdlb> wepeel: set your video interface to Xv
[06:18] <MrWalker> I'm having trouble installing ubuntu 64 7.04 on an intel core 2 duo
[06:18] <crdlb> in mplayer's preferences
[06:18] <MrWalker> have I come to the right place for help?
[06:18] <cables> MrWalker, definitely, although I have no idea how to help you...
[06:18] <seamus7> Flannel: i was thinking of copying the debs into by /home folder and then once i reinstall feisty using them to quickly reinstall all the programs again ... rather than downloading them all again ... does this make sense and will it work?
[06:19] <ghost> eck, how do i check to see if i have ldap running
[06:19] <wepeel> crdlb: it's set to xv, no change
[06:19] <phy3> state your problem, walker
[06:19] <vbabiy> is there something i can call in bash to find out my UID
[06:19] <Andrepose> I've done it before and I don't remember how it works again
[06:19] <vbabiy> so i can include it in my bash script
[06:19] <Flannel> seamus7: yeah, you can do that
[06:19] <Parmenion> MrWalker: yes ... what exactly is the problem?
[06:19] <crdlb> wepeel: depending on your video card, you can only have one Xv video playing at a time
[06:19] <wepeel> crdlb: the message looks like "alsa control, unable to control pci:0"
[06:19] <crdlb> oh
[06:19] <Arigato> What are some good laptop brands that are fully compatible with linux?
[06:20] <crdlb> wepeel: no clue then
[06:20] <MrWalker> Its a fairly basic problem, I boot into the cd bootmenu, select install ubuntu, cd goes nuts and constant black screen.
[06:20] <Winand> what script would i have to run to do  flac -sdc $in | lame - $out for every file that ends in *.flac
[06:20] <wepeel> crdlb: ne neither, been looking for a solution for months :) thought I'd try again.
[06:20] <wepeel> anyway, thanks for the help. it's bedtime
[06:20] <Parmenion> Arigato: dell/compaq/hp if you dont choose broadcom wireles
[06:20] <phy3> I've never seena cd o nuts
[06:20] <Jordan_U> MrWalker, Did you test the integrity of the CD?
[06:20] <MrWalker> yes Jordan_U
[06:20] <Parmenion> and if you pick nvdia or ati, pick a card which is easily supported
[06:21] <RTzRa> Need help. Motherboard ASUS P5B Deluxe. Ubuntu 7.04. Used 2 Gb RAM (Samsung, 2x1 Gb), swap 3 Gb. All ok. Add now 2x512 Mb Hynix, and now in system 3Gb Ram. But Ubuntu does'n work. Memchek test - OK. Windows 2003 Server work on the same hardware - ok. Can you tell me why Ubuntu doesnt'n work?
[06:21] <Jordan_U> Arigato, System76 sells Linux pre-installed
[06:21] <Winand> basically I need to know for future reference how to run a command for every file that ends with a suffix
[06:21] <Winand> so for example, 1.jpeg
[06:21] <Andrepose> anyone know hardware stuff?
[06:21] <Winand> i would do blah 1.jpeg | foo 1.gif
[06:21] <Jordan_U> MrWalker, I would try the alternate CD
[06:22] <Jordan_U> !anyone | Andrepose
[06:22] <AzMoo> How do I install an Australian locale?
[06:23] <Andrepose> ?
[06:23] <ghost> arigato, i just looked at the website for system76 and they aren't bad lookng
[06:23] <SuperHero> cant update using adept i had a crash and its locked and i dont know which process to kill  cause the suggested ones are not shown any sugguestions
[06:24] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, What do you mean by "the suggested ones are not shown any sugguestions" ?
[06:24] <kahrytan> Hello
[06:24] <SuperHero> adept suggest killing apt-get or some other app process both not in the process window
[06:24] <MrWalker> Jordan_U - figured that was my next step. bugger. internet not quick in kiwiland. Where do I get this alternate cd? Can't see it on http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[06:24] <ubotu> vbabiy: nautilus-open-terminal: nautilus plugin for opening terminals in arbitrary local paths. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 22 kB, installed size 640 kB
[06:25] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, You say that adept crashed?
[06:25] <SuperHero> was installin apps from adept and one of them crashed and i had to reboot
[06:25] <SuperHero> bloodbot
[06:26] <cables> !test
[06:26] <ubotu> zedfloyd: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:26] <ubotu> zedfloyd: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[06:26] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, If you are *sure* that no other install program ( check dpkg ) is running then sudo rm
[06:26] <Jordan_U> /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[06:26] <ubotu> Andrepose: 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?
[06:26] <zedfloyd> where do i put !EasySource
[06:26] <hidan> !virtualbox
[06:27] <riddlebox> how do I see what pci a graphics card is on?
[06:27] <zedfloyd> does that go in the terminal
[06:27] <riddlebox> for busid that is
[06:27] <Jordan_U> zedfloyd, /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:27] <SuperHero> i dont see nuttin runnin but i wondered about the process getty there is a few of them runnin but wasnt sure what it was for
[06:28] <hidan> hi, i used partimage to image my ubuntu partition. now i want to test the image with Virtualbox. any tutorials on how to do that?
[06:28] <zedfloyd> jordan U, where do i put /etc/apt/sources.list??
[06:28] <zedfloyd> do i just cut and paste it into the terminal?
[06:28] <MrWalker> I am running a raid 0 configuration - could this be why no setup boot?
[06:28] <Parmenion> zedfloyd: you add it into the file
[06:28] <Parmenion> open the sources.list file with gedit or something
[06:29] <Jordan_U> zedfloyd, /etc/apt/sources.list is a path to a text file, "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" in the terminal to edit the file
[06:29] <Madpilot> SuperHero, 'getty' is the process that runs the extra terminal consoles
[06:29] <sethk> MrWalker, definitely, yes.
[06:29] <cute_bettong> holy cow sethk how are you man?
[06:29] <ghost> can you play high end games on linux laptops
[06:29] <sethk> MrWalker, you should set up a small non-raid partition for booting.
[06:29] <debian> ghost, it depends on what games you want to play
[06:29] <sethk> cute_bettong, don't know, ask me tomorrow  :)
[06:29] <cute_bettong> sethk: lol
[06:30] <ghost> like bf2, mostly first person games
[06:30] <Luke> clisp for sparc fails to build on my computer and is set as the status on launchpad. does that mean it will never be working on feisty?
[06:30] <cute_bettong> i have a question why did the ubuntu ups app totally fail to work with my ups system?
[06:30] <sethk> cute_bettong, I'm actually passing out, just typed in an answer as I drifted by ...
[06:30] <debian> ghost, you'll need to use WINE to play games like that
[06:30] <debian> they also have a list of all the games you can play using it
[06:30] <sethk> cute_bettong, whic UPS?
[06:30] <cute_bettong> i have a cpyberpower ups backup system
[06:30] <ghost> what is wine
[06:30] <cute_bettong> make that cyberpower
[06:30] <cute_bettong> ups backup system
[06:30] <debian> WINE is a program that lets you run windows programs in linux
[06:31] <debian> it stands for "WINE Is Not an Emulator"
[06:31] <cute_bettong> the ubuntu app that runs it totally failed to notice i had less than 3 minutes of power and shut the system down
[06:31] <Jordan_U> cute_bettong, May not be supported, I hope you didn't find out it didn't work by having your comp loose power while on :(
[06:31] <cute_bettong> no i just switched to linux agian after pulling vista
[06:31] <MrWalker> sorry, should have said that earlier. sethk - that kind of doesn't work for me. no way to install ubuntu on my system while I have raid 0?
[06:32] <cute_bettong> and was doing it's first weekly test in linux as i hear if you don't use the ups battry at least once a month they kinda get messed up
[06:32] <sethk> MrWalker, I wouldn't say that.  It's probably possible, but I don't know how to do it.
[06:32] <debian> ghost, according to this site, BF 2 can be played using WINE   http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=2424
[06:32] <SuperHero> check dpkg didn't show anything
[06:32] <debian> actually the first screenshot even shows it running on ubuntu
[06:33] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, If you are *sure* that no other install program is running then delete the lock with: sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[06:33] <cute_bettong> ghost: try cedega's point2play if your new to ubuntu that might be easyer for you
[06:33] <cute_bettong> but yea i cannot fathom why the ups diden't work like it should have...lsusb picks it up just fine
[06:33] <ghost> never heard of cedegas'
[06:33] <MrWalker> sethk - bugger. so this "small non-raid partition for booting" idea, by that do you mean I install another harddrive that isn't in a raid configuration and use that was my booting partition?
[06:34] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, Basically, install apps write to that file when they start and delete it when they are done so no two install apps run at the same time, adept crashed before deleting the lock, hence why it thought another program was running
[06:34] <SurfnKid> !flash
[06:34] <debian> cedega is commercial software--you have to pay for it
[06:34] <cute_bettong> ghost: here is the linky: http://www.transgaming.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&ceid=2&meid=-1
[06:34] <SuperHero> did but still get the messege
[06:34] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:34] <cute_bettong> ghost: you might find that easyer than setting up wine on your own
[06:35] <ghost> k
[06:35] <SuperHero> something much be tryin to install still
[06:35] <SuperHero> can i kill the getty process
[06:35] <cute_bettong> ghost: wine is kinda hard to use sometimes....and the support is all reasearch and stuff.......but that dosen't mean wine is bad....it just might be a bit harder for you to use
[06:35] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, What message do you get when you try to run "sudo apt-get install" without adept running?
[06:35] <riddlebox> can someone tell me how to find the busid for a pci device, lspci doesnt show it?
[06:36] <Pie-rate> how do i check how much disc space is left from command line?
[06:36] <SuperHero> dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[06:36] <crdlb> Pie-rate: df -h
[06:36] <zwh> du
[06:37] <zedfloyd> can i install programs intended for KDE clients on Unbuntu?
[06:37] <crdlb> zedfloyd: yes
[06:37] <crdlb> if you have the diskspace
[06:37] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" :)
[06:38] <SuperHero> well its settin up the other irc clients now
[06:38] <MrWalker> if noone here knows how to install ubuntu on a raid 0 configuration, could someone please direct me to where I should be asking my questions?
[06:38] <SuperHero> the bloodbot gets errors and caused problems but it bypassed it this time
[06:39] <SuperHero> thanks solved
[06:39] <cute_bettong> ghost: i forgot to mention that it's pay2play but runs a hellova lot of games
[06:40] <ghost> noticed that
[06:40] <phy3> http://www.pugbus.net/artman/publish/05037002_11_windowsubuntu.shtml
[06:40] <fotoflo> how do i find any file that has been created or modified in the last n minutes?
[06:41] <Acu> Is Dell offering Laptop or Desktop systems with Ubuntu ?
[06:41] <phy3> they will, both
[06:42] <SuperHero> jordan
[06:42] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, Yes?
[06:42] <damejiar> hey a question
[06:42] <damejiar> how can I install ubuntu packages off-line?
[06:42] <SuperHero> theres a site i goto to identify a process running in windows is there a site that does that for linux too
[06:42] <damejiar> example, the gstreamer packages
[06:43] <SuperHero> to see what it is
[06:43] <Jordan_U> Acu, System76 is offering Linux pre-installed today
[06:43] <tonyr1988> damejiar: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ has all the *.deb files. Of course, you'll have to download them from the Internet.
[06:43] <ghost> got to go, see everyone later. and thanks for the info
[06:43] <Jordan_U> SuperHero, You can usually just do : man <process name>
[06:43] <tonyr1988> damejiar: But you'll be able to download and install on a CD or whatever for offline installation.
[06:44] <damejiar> a friend of mine wants able to play mp3, avi, divx in his ubuntu current installation
[06:44] <levon> anyone get nsfu2 to run
[06:44] <damejiar> but he has no internet
[06:44] <levon> i got it loaded and running but the screens are grey
[06:44] <fotoflo> how do i find any file that has been created or modified in the last n minutes?
[06:44] <tonyr1988> damejiar: What version does he have?
[06:44] <levon> any ideas
[06:44] <damejiar> tonyr1988 : Feisty Fawn
[06:44] <SuperHero> ah ok
[06:45] <Jordan_U> fotoflo, man find
[06:45] <levon> no ideas hu?
[06:45] <tonyr1988> damejiar: It's possible to do it, but not really fun...lemme look for another way for it. One second.
[06:46] <damejiar> tonyr1988: I want to know if it's possible to download more cd's or dvd like debian , where there are all repositories
[06:46] <slim_> is there some1 named conartist in here still
[06:46] <tonyr1988> damejiar: No, the repositories are too large.
[06:46] <tonyr1988> damejiar: I remember reading somewhere a way to download all the dependencies and packages for something in the repositories you could then burn to a CD. I don't remember where it's at, though
[06:46] <Jordan_U> damejiar, I believe that the DVD image contains a small repo of common applications
[06:47] <bonee_> ls
[06:47] <SuperHero> thanks for help bedtime now haha
[06:47] <fotoflo> jordan: its pretty obstruse!
[06:48] <slim_> i figured out the "azureus" problem
[06:48] <Acu> Jordan_U: I just looked at System76 - their Laptops are at least 200 USD more expensive than their Dell or HP systems - they have to make financial sense too besides adding the loved linux OS - thanks anyway
[06:48] <damejiar> tonyr1988 : are you talking about APTONCD?
[06:48] <Jordan_U> fotoflo, Yea... it's not the most intuitive program ever made :)
[06:49] <tonyr1988> damejiar: Yes, I believe that was it. Have you looked into that?
[06:49] <fotoflo> Jordan_U: im looking at -cmin
[06:49] <tonyr1988> damejiar: I think the other one I had originally found was a shell script, but a GUI would be nice. :)
[06:49] <Jordan_U> damejiar, You can simply download the .debs with apt then put those on a thumb drive
[06:49] <fotoflo> File's status was last changed n minutes ago.
[06:49] <fotoflo> does it have to be exactly n minutes ago?
[06:50] <fotoflo> can i do cmin < 10?
[06:50] <damejiar> Jordan_U : ok
[06:50] <Jordan_U> tonyr1988, For getting the .debs for all the dependencies of a package for a comp with no connection? that can be done with synaptic
[06:50] <levon> need for speed underground 2 help please im using wine and i get grey screens
[06:51] <thebillywayne> levon, you probably have a better chance in #winehq
[06:51] <tonyr1988> Jordan_U: What's the command for download a package + dependencies, but not installing? I forgot what it was...
[06:51] <Jordan_U> tonyr1988, -d , but I don't know if that puts them in a convienient p\lace like your current directory
[06:52] <tonyr1988> Jordan_U: True..hmm.....I don't know. That APTonCD project looks pretty promising, but I've never used it.
[06:52] <Jordan_U> tonyr1988, synaptic has a feature to "make a download script" which does though
[06:53] <fotoflo> im looking at the man page for find, i want to find anything created or modified in the last 10 minutes..  im looking at -cmin, but that seems to be 10 min ago, not >10 min ago
[06:53] <tonyr1988> Jordan_U: But would he have to un-install on his box, checkmark for installation, and then make the download script? I guess it's not a huge hassle, but it would be nice to not have to uninstall them all.
[06:53] <sahil> Hey, what is the command used to configure the graphics so that you can have a higher resolution
[06:54] <Loco> hi i've installed wine, how can i installed windows based programs?
[06:54] <Jordan_U> tonyr1988, If it's Feisty I luckily just installed a fresh image so I can get the URL's for him :)
[06:54] <Jordan_U> tonyr1988, (vmware)
[06:54] <tonyr1988> Jordan_U: Ahhh....nice.
[06:54] <tonyr1988> damejiar: Jordan_U has got you covered. ;)
[06:55] <tonyr1988> Loco: What program?
[06:55] <damejiar> Jordan_U : how do I only download the .deb on apt?
[06:56] <Jordan_U> damejiar, -d switch, I can get you the URL's though if you want, what package(s) do you need?
[06:56] <damejiar> Jordan_U : I need the gstreamer restricted plugins
[06:56] <Thomas_> NickServ
[06:56] <damejiar> Jordan_U : to be able to play mp3, avi, mpg, etc
[06:57] <Thomas_> I need some help with installation
[06:57] <tonyr1988> Loco: You still there? What program did you need to install?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> damejiar, Do you want all of ubuntu-restricted-extras or are you low on space / bandwidth ?
[06:59] <therealnanotube> anyone know if gutsy will be another LTS release? or will that be gutsy+1?
[06:59] <Jordan_U> therealnanotube, Gutsy will not
[07:00] <therealnanotube> Jordan_U: so, gutsy+1, then, or not even that?
[07:00] <damejiar> Jordan_U : I want to indicate to a friend the steps to do it
[07:00] <damejiar> Jordan_U : for install himself
[07:00] <Antiqel> I'd love some help with playing vcds. I can't seem to find a plugin
[07:01] <therealnanotube> damejiar: there's an ubuntu wiki page about restricted formats... is that what you are looking for?
[07:01] <fotoflo> http://pastebin.ca/470254
[07:01] <Antiqel> I've been there
[07:01] <therealnanotube> Antiqel: probably vlc will play them?
[07:01] <therealnanotube> wow, it's pretty low traffic here, considering 1143 users are present. :)
[07:01] <damejiar> therealnoanotube : the only thing I want to do is to install the gstreamer restricter plugins in a Feisty current installation without internet connection
[07:01] <Antiqel> no, tried that. vlc just closes, with other media players I get an error
[07:02] <Jordan_U> damejiar, here is a script to get the .debs for all the most common proprietary goodies ( codecs, flash, java etc )...
[07:02] <damejiar> Jordan_U : share it :D
[07:02] <therealnanotube> damejiar: ah, without internet, eh...
[07:02] <Myrtti> good morning everyone!
[07:03] <therealnanotube> Myrtti: sup ;)
[07:03] <damejiar> therealnanotube : yes, I asked if there is a lot of cd's or dvd with the repositories, like Debian
[07:03] <Antiqel> does anyone know how to resolve this error in Totem: There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie
[07:04] <Thomas_> Can anybody help me with installation problems?
[07:04] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, what's up?
[07:05] <therealnanotube> damejiar: i think there's a dvd, which includes almost all packages..? haven't used it myself, though...
[07:05] <Jordan_U> damejiar, http://trogdoor.googlepages.com/restricted-extras.sh
[07:05] <Jordan_U> damejiar, Basically just a bunch of wget's
[07:05] <mon^rch> what's the command to output a dir to a text file?
[07:05] <Thomas_> I can get to the screen with the logo and orange progress bar, but once the bar is full the screen goes blank and stays that way.  It doesn't seem to be doing anything at all
[07:06] <therealnanotube> Jordan_U: isn't there supposed to be a space after "wget -c" ?
[07:06] <Antiqel> does anyone play vcds other than me?
[07:06] <damejiar> Jordan_U : there is another detail, the person I want to help, is so newbie, its very difficult for him to use commands and console :S
[07:06] <Jarekb84> is there  a version of Day of Defeat that runs natively in Ubuntu?
[07:06] <Jordan_U> therealnanotube, Synaptic made the script, not me, I normally put one though
[07:06] <therealnanotube> Jordan_U: ah ic... how do you get synaptic to make a script? i never had a reason to, but it seems like useful knowledge. :)
[07:07] <Tarkus> hey, anyone know how to remove the shadow/glow on the text of an active window?
[07:07] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, pastebin the output of a couple of commands for me, OK.
[07:07] <Jordan_U> therealnanotube, check what you want to "install" then go to file -> create download script
[07:07] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, command #1:  cat /etc/fstab
[07:08] <Thomas_> Hold on, I'm sorry what do you want me to do
[07:08] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, command #2:  sudo fdisk -l
[07:08] <sambagirl> is there ANY command or syntax to display hidden services that are running?
[07:08] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, paste those two commands into the terminal.  Then copy and paste the output of them into the pastebin.
[07:08] <therealnanotube> Jordan_U: ah, nice! hehe
[07:08] <thebillywayne> !pastebin | Thomas_
[07:08] <Jordan_U> damejiar, Just give him the URL's to get with FF and tell him to put them all in one folder called "debs" on his desktop and tell him to run: sudo dpkg -i ~Desktop/debs/*.deb
[07:09] <nrdb> Hi I am trying to get my fiesty install to play DVD, the info says I need to install libdvdcss2, I have the multiverse respository add but I cant find it listed in synaptic.
[07:09] <ajmorris_> sambagirl, does sudo ps -A in a terminal show hidden services? if so use that
[07:09] <sambagirl> just a second..i have a major problem ajmorris_
[07:09] <thebillywayne> nrdb, just do sudo aptitude install libdvdcss2 in terminal.  Lots easier, the terminal is. :)
[07:09] <sambagirl> something bad
[07:09] <sambagirl> brb
[07:09] <damejiar> Jordan_U : ok
[07:10] <nrdb> thebillywayne: it says it cant find it too.
[07:10] <Talaman> hmm
[07:10] <damejiar> Jordan_U : only sudo ./restricted-extras.sh
[07:10] <Antiqel> no vcd experts? anyone?
[07:10] <thebillywayne> nrdb, are you *sure* you've got all the repositories enabled?
[07:10] <damejiar> and sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[07:10] <Adamhman> hey
[07:10] <Madpilot> ubotu, dvd | nrdb thebillywayne
[07:10] <therealnanotube> nrdb: maybe search for libdvdcss, without the 2.
[07:11] <thebillywayne> nrdb, that's a good idea.  sudo apt-cache search libdvdcss
[07:11] <ubotu> Thomas_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:11] <ubotu> nrdb thebillywayne: 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
[07:11] <Adamhman> can anyone give me some advice on partitioning a hard drive for Ubuntu?  This is what it looks like http://img461.imageshack.us/img461/4937/screenug5.png
[07:12] <Jordan_U> damejiar, No sudo required, the script just downloads the .debs ( look at it, it's fairly simple ) it doesn't install them
[07:12] <ajmorris_> adamhman, you need to create a swap file
[07:12] <damejiar> Jordan_U : ahh, ok
[07:13] <damejiar> thanks
[07:13] <Adamhman> should I split sda2?  and make the first part the swap file?
[07:13] <fxfitz> Hello! I'm brand new to Ubuntu and I'm trying to set up my video card so I can try out Beryl. Can anyone help me?? glxgears is going reaaaaally slow. :(
[07:13] <thebillywayne> nrdb, oh yeah.  you need the medibuntu repository.
[07:13] <Thomas_> ok how can i post into the terminal
[07:14] <Jordan_U> damejiar, But you could add that to the script yourself, it wouldn't be hard, just add mkdir ~Desktop/debs; cd ~Desktop/debs < all the downloading stuff > sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[07:14] <thebillywayne> !pastebin | Thomas_
[07:14] <ubotu> Thomas_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:14] <Thomas_> !pastebin
[07:14] <damejiar> Jordan_U : I will download the .deb's and give them
[07:15] <amigamia> ajmorris_ honestly i dont know...
[07:15] <insta> is there a way to make xmms "play" a song without a soundcard?  I don't have one in my system, no alsa or oss configured in the kernel, and all I want to do is broadcast through icecast
[07:15] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, you need to paste the output of those commands into this website.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[07:15] <ajmorris_> amigamia, don't know what?
[07:15] <Thomas_> I know, but where exactly do I enter those commands
[07:16] <amigamia> if it is showing hidden services or not
[07:16] <Adamhman> can someone tell me where to create the swap file?   http://img461.imageshack.us/img461/4937/screenug5.png
[07:16] <fxfitz> Can anyone help me set up my video card so I can try out beryl? :(
[07:16] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, into the terminal.  Applications > Accessories > Terminal (the menu at the top of the screen)
[07:16] <Jordan_U> damejiar, I don't know if you can just select them all and double click them, I just don't know if gdebi will look for dependencies in the other packages like dpkg -i *.deb does
[07:16] <thebillywayne> fxfitz, /join #ubuntu-effects
[07:16] <fxfitz> thebillywayne, Thank you!
[07:17] <Thomas_> You mean in Ubuntu?
[07:17] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, yes.
[07:17] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, man don't i feel dumb
[07:17] <Thomas_> I don't have it, thats my problem.  I can never get it to even load up
[07:18] <thebillywayne> Right.  Are you in Windows now?
[07:18] <Thomas_> yes
[07:18] <Adamhman> OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!
[07:18] <damejiar> Jordan_U : hey
[07:18] <Adamhman> lol, jk
[07:18] <Thomas_> hey, i'm trying to get this
[07:18] <Thomas_> so i can leave it
[07:18] <insta> Adamhman: what about a swapfile now?
[07:18] <damejiar> Jordan_U : the archive has a mistake
[07:18] <Adamhman> thanks insta, this is what my hard drive looks like http://img461.imageshack.us/img461/4937/screenug5.png
[07:18] <Antiqel> anyone available to help with playing vcds, I think I need a plugin, but which one?
[07:18] <damejiar> Jordan_U : I am solving it, but it's neccesary to tell the creator
[07:19] <Jordan_U> damejiar, What's that?
[07:19] <insta> yeah I'm looking at it now
[07:19] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, oh dont' sweat it man.  Windows is a fine OS, as long as you don't connect it to the internet.
[07:19] <damejiar> Jordan_U : look at the file
[07:19] <insta> where are you wanting to create the swapfile?  your 40gb drive?
[07:19] <Jordan_U> damejiar, bugs.ubuntu.com
[07:19] <damejiar> nano restricted-extras.sh
[07:19] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, do you still have your LiveCD?
[07:19] <Thomas_> yes
[07:19] <Adamhman> I guess so.... isn't that what I do?  I read that the swap file should be near the beginning of the drive
[07:20] <damejiar> Jordan_U : you have only to separate wget -c http instead of wget -chttp
[07:20] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, the reality is, it'll probably be just as labour intensive to just re-install.  Honestly.
[07:20] <aaaaaaabbbbbbbb> ver
[07:20] <Adamhman> Is the swap file only for use during installing Ubuntu?
[07:20] <Adamhman> (I have an external hard drive as well)
[07:20] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, just be sure to have absolutely nothing going on in the LiveCD when you do install.  Running programs while installing can cause errors.
[07:20] <Thomas_> ?. I never got it installed at all
[07:20] <insta> Adamhman: no, it's (you don't happen to work for a school district, do you?) used all the time
[07:20] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, the LiveCD crashes?
[07:21] <Thomas_> it seems to
[07:21] <Adamhman> nope
[07:21] <Thomas_> screen goes blank, and nothing happens
[07:21] <chip> hello all is there a help queue that i need to sign in to?
[07:21] <insta> chip: ask your question with clear concise words
[07:21] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, if you're sure you want to install, just use the alternate CD.  I've always preferred that method anyway.
[07:21] <insta> its' a zoo in here
[07:21] <chip> insta, ok then.
[07:22] <Thomas_> OK, I'll try that, is it any harder
[07:22] <insta> Adamhman: how much ram is in the machine
[07:22] <thebillywayne> Thomas_, not at all.  The look is just a touch different, but it's no harder at all.
[07:22] <Thomas_> OK, thanks
[07:22] <thebillywayne> !alternate | Thomas_
[07:22] <ubotu> Thomas_: 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
[07:22] <Antiqel> I've been at this for hours, I can play every media type I have in my library except for vcds anyone else buy old kung fu movies from chinatown?
[07:22] <Jordan_U> damejiar, File a bug against synaptic
[07:22] <Adamhman> I think 256 mb
[07:23] <thebillywayne> Oops. Thought'd it give you a link.
[07:23] <insta> Adamhman: are you in the livecd environment now?
[07:23] <Adamhman> I'm running Ubuntu off the CD right now
[07:23] <insta> (so, yes)
[07:24] <chip> Running newest kubuntu (7.04?) and trying to set up Samba for the home network. Have a 2ndary drive in a 2ndary machine that i want to serve to my main destop and the wifes laptop. it always askes me to either login from the windows machine or won't allow entry to the dir from the windows machine.
[07:24] <timmi> moin
[07:24] <chip> even tho it's kde, i'm not afraid of cli action
[07:24] <Adamhman> where should I create the swap file?
[07:24] <insta> chip: are you running samba security = share  ?
[07:25] <thebillywayne> is there a pjones0404 in the house?
[07:25] <nrdb> The webpage https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html has a mistype in it, step 2 says "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh" but the file is in /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/
[07:25] <chip> at the moment it is set to:
[07:25] <insta> Adamhman: I'd say as a 1GB partition in your 40GB drive
[07:25] <sgtmattbaker> hello I am trying to follow this guide: http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Debian to rebuild aqbanking and when I type"edit debian/control" I get this error: Warning: unknown mime-type for "debian/control" -- using "application/*"
[07:25] <sgtmattbaker> Error: no "edit" mailcap rules found for type "application/*"  I know there is a issue with gnucash where a certain version cannot compile so I don't know about aqbanking
[07:25] <thebillywayne> Adamhman, try to create it near the center of the drive.
[07:25] <stu> how much memory is required for an instakllation of ubuntu? i am teying my first install on an old dell laptop and it is in lowl memory ode
[07:25] <stu> installation*
[07:26] <Adamhman> so should I create the swap file at the end of sda2?  http://img461.imageshack.us/img461/4937/screenug5.png
[07:26] <Antiqel> ok no love for me here. I'll try my luck elsewhere
[07:26] <insta> thebillywayne: don't you think it's more prudent to simplify the creation of the swap partition rather than having Adam try and juggle folderes?
[07:26] <thebillywayne> insta, he asked where to put it.
[07:26] <insta> thebillywayne: dont' you think if he was ready to put it in the middle of the drive, he wouldn't have to ask?
[07:26] <insta> :)
[07:26] <thebillywayne> insta, maybe.  he asked.  i answered.
[07:27] <chip> insta i'm still lookin (= hold 1.
[07:27] <Adamhman> thanks insta and thebillywayne, I appreciate it
[07:27] <BoneE> is ubuntu using gdm
[07:27] <BoneE> or kdm
[07:27] <insta> BoneE: gdm, kubuntu uses km
[07:27] <insta> kdm**
[07:27] <thebillywayne> Adamhman, you're welcome.
[07:28] <thebillywayne> stu, if you're concerned about low memory, xubuntu is the way to go.
[07:28] <sgtmattbaker> ubuntu isn't so great w/ memory the server version wouldn't even boot on my 64MB RAM machine
[07:28] <hurt> ....
[07:28] <chip> insta right now it's set as User
[07:29] <Flannel> sgtmattbaker: eh?  it ought to.  Its minimum is... either 32 or 40MB
[07:29] <insta> chip, set it to share
[07:29] <chip> ok
[07:29] <chip> but. . .
[07:29] <hidan> http://parker1.co.uk/ubuntu-se/screenshots.php
[07:29] <insta> yeah?
[07:29] <chip> right now i can brows into that box (famblypc) and see the printer share and the dir that the disk is mounted to
[07:29] <chip> which is what share would do, right?
[07:29] <hidan> hi, i used partimage to image my ubuntu partition. now i want to test the image with Virtualbox. any tutorials on how to do that?
[07:30] <thebillywayne> is there a pjones0404 in the house?
[07:30] <sgtmattbaker> Flannel: I installed feisty server and dapper server and when it tries to boot them it just doesn't and goes back to the beginning bios screen and goes through everything again, in a continual loop.  I checked the RAM w/ memtest and it is good ram
[07:30] <stu> thebillywayne: thanks, i am preparing to abandon windows and was told ubuntu was the way to go so i was trying to install to a laptop, but i have a desktop with windows i can overwrite and try ubuntu with
[07:30] <Flannel> sgtmattbaker: Try grabbing the alternate CD (grab dapper), and do a "server" install of that (it installs a non-GUI system)
[07:30] <insta> chip: share should still do that
[07:30] <thebillywayne> stu, if you have a PIII w/ 256 MB of RAM, xubuntu is the distro for you.  :)
[07:31] <insta> worst case scenario you can change it back and try something else
[07:31] <chip> insta ok did that.
[07:31] <insta> restart samba now
[07:31] <chip> here's the msg i get from windows when i try to Explore the share:
[07:31] <sgtmattbaker> Flannel: I used the Dapper LTS server installer.  even there it said it was running in low memory mode
[07:31] <Flannel> sgtmattbaker: right.  I imagine it's not the memory, but the hardware compatability.  Try grabbing the alternate CD and installing from that
[07:32] <rgould>  /part
[07:32] <chip> it says "\\Famblypc\Yoh is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.\n\n The network name cannot be found."
[07:33] <Adamhman> I'm still not sure where specifically to create the swap?  in the beginning of sda2?  at the end of sda2?  in the middle of sda2?
[07:33] <Adamhman> http://img461.imageshack.us/img461/4937/screenug5.png
[07:33] <ce^imout> palembang
[07:34] <insta> Adamhman: somewhere in sda2 will be fine
[07:34] <insta> you won't notice the difference
[07:34] <stu> thebillywayne hmm i guess i need to register to message you back
[07:34] <sgtmattbaker> Flannel: ok.. seems kinda odd that dapper server would do that though..
[07:34] <RD58> hey i need to burn a iso image how to in ubuntu,what program?
[07:34] <Adamhman> what do I select for "Use as" for the swap?
[07:35] <Flannel> sgtmattbaker: nah.  The server CDs have different hardware support as the desktop-ish ones
[07:35] <lazaruslupine> gnomebaker works fine for burning
[07:35] <sgtmattbaker> Flannel: oh ok
[07:35] <thebillywayne> stu, yes.  It's easy to do, and keeps others from bumming your nick.
[07:35] <chip> insta when i go to "Map Network Drive" in windows, i do it with "connect using different username" and give it my kub username, and it says "The network path \\Famblypc\Yoh could not be found" but it shows it right the hell there listed with printers & faxes
[07:35] <ce^imout> haiiiii
[07:35] <insta> Adamhman: what are your choices?
[07:35] <sgtmattbaker> I am a real Linux noob.  I need to spend all summer learning linux stuff

[07:39] <chip> insta, i was only doing that cuz it doesn't work directly.
[07:39] <chip> and that was the only way i could 'force' a login on it.
[07:39] <insta> does it still not work directly after you changed to share and restarted samba?
[07:39] <sgtmattbaker> I think I might get a bundle of computers and HDD of state surplus tomorrow.. for ~$25
[07:39] <thebillywayne> Adamhman, you got everything going on fine over there?

[07:41] <pr0nGuy> Is there a way to find out why my broadcom wireless card is not working with Feisty?
[07:41] <chip> insta, well i don't want it to be 'public' to the network, i want it locked to me.

[07:42] <lazaruslupine> arooni, if you want a dual monitor setup, with two diff sceens, you need to edit you /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:42] <Smilez> sorry... tryna see if bots got info on it
[07:42] <Adamhman> okay, I've got a "Resizing Partition" bar.... still at 0% i'll let you know when thats done

[07:43] <Adamhman> Now I got an error
[07:43] <thebillywayne> Adamhman, cool.  are you planning on creating a separate /home partition?
[07:43] <insta> chip: this is something we can pretty easily handle still
[07:43] <Madpilot> Smilez, check help.ubuntu.com/community, search for folding
[07:43] <chip> [00:24:03]  <chip> Running newest kubuntu (7.04?) and trying to set up Samba for the home network. Have a 2ndary drive in a 2ndary machine that i want to serve to my main destop and the wifes laptop. it always askes me to either login from the windows machine or won't allow entry to the dir from the windows machine.
[07:43] <lazaruslupine> arooni let me see if i can find a good howto online
[07:43] <Flannel> Smilez: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FoldingAtHome
[07:43] <Jordan_U> I have an ubuntu guest under an Ubuntu host with vmware, what do I do on the guest to install vmware-tools
[07:43] <chip> [00:24:25]  <chip> even tho it's kde, i'm not afraid of cli action
[07:43] <Myrtti> Smilez: try boinc
[07:43] <Adamhman> Resize Operation failure:  An error occurred while writing the changes to the storage devices.  The resize operation is aborted
[07:43] <Smilez> whats boinc?
[07:44] <chip> insta, i won't know whether to be happy or even more angry if it gets fixed quickly.
[07:44] <Myrtti> it's a client for most of the grid calculation programmes
[07:44] <Toma-> chip: you need to set a samba password with "smbpasswd -a yourusername"
[07:44] <Myrtti> rosetta, seti, etc.
[07:44] <insmod> chip: on ubuntu with open root it's hard -- i would just use debian and have only root (you ) mount the drive
[07:44] <Myrtti> folding too, prolly
[07:44] <Smilez> can i install using add/remove software?
[07:44] <insta> chip: what are the directory permissions on the mounted share on the server machine?
[07:44] <Flannel> insmod: open root?
[07:44] <chip> Toma-, i did that. i used my kub user/pass as the smbpasswd entry.
[07:44] <lazaruslupine> arooni, this is what I found so far http://ozlabs.org/~jk/docs/mergefb/
[07:45] <Toma-> chip: ok
[07:45] <chip> insta, permissions when? before or after mount?
[07:45] <insta> chip: after
[07:45] <chip> before, they're 777. after, it's . . .
[07:45] <insmod> Flannel: why bother just get a secure distro
[07:45] <z0x1c> chip: is your username and password the same under Samba and Windows?
[07:45] <Myrtti> Smilez: you need universe enabled first, then you can install both boinc-manager and boinc-client
[07:46] <zerokill88> what is ubuntus default pdf file veiwer?
[07:46] <Flannel> insmod: what are you talking about?  What is this 'open root' of which you speak?
[07:46] <sgtmattbaker> zerokill88: I believe it is evince pdf reader
[07:46] <fsckit> can someone tell me real quick how to set file permissions on a directory? for rwx permissions for all and owned by root? my hd has lost it's permissions
[07:46] <chip> zoxic yes. same.
[07:46] <Smilez> Myrtti: I found a howto on the community site for getting FAH installed, ima give it a try
[07:46] <chip> insta, looks like perms are 600... hold 1 lemme check cli
[07:46] <insmod> Flannel: ah sudo is the users pass
[07:46] <insta> fsckit: don't do rwx for all owned by root
[07:46] <lazaruslupine> look up chmod fsckit
[07:46] <Smilez> Question. Dual Core = 1CPU as far as FAH is concerned right
[07:47] <insta> Smilez: no, you can run two clients on a dual-core system
[07:47] <zerokill88> thanks sgtmattbaker
[07:47] <Flannel> insmod: Right.  That's hardly an "open root" though.  Since, they still have to be allowed to use sudo.  And even then, you can restrict what they can do WITH sudo
[07:47] <insmod> Flannel: sudo mount /dev/hda2 /porn1 -- pass:
[07:47] <lazaruslupine> for example sudo chmod 7777 would give all users and groups read and write access
[07:47] <Smilez> insta: So i should choose 2 cpu's though 1 is detected?
[07:47] <fsckit> insta, it's a hard drive and all my other hard drives are set as such by default
[07:47] <Flannel> insmod: Only if you allow them to use mount with sudo.
[07:47] <thebillywayne> Adamhman, error creating new partition?
[07:47] <sgtmattbaker> smile: a dual core if I am right, is seen as 2 CPUs
[07:47] <insmod> Flannel: it's open enough for what he wants
[07:47] <Adamhman> yep
[07:48] <insta> smilez: does your linux installation detect two cpu's? :)
[07:48] <Adamhman> it won't create the swap partition
[07:48] <insmod> Flannel: that is why i said easier
[07:48] <Smilez> insta: how can I check?
[07:48] <Smilez> new 2 buntu
[07:48] <chip> insta owner 'can view content' group & other = forbidden
[07:48] <fsckit> thanks for suggestions but to no avail
[07:48] <Adamhman> Resize Operation failure:  An error occurred while writing the changes to the storage devices.  The resize operation is aborted
[07:48] <insta> chip: who's it owned by?
[07:48] <chip> root
[07:48] <insta> Smilez: are you comfy using the command line?
[07:48] <Smilez> sure am
[07:48] <Myrtti> http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/team_display.php?teamid=961 wheee
[07:48] <Flannel> insmod: well, since you wont be letting them do any admin stuff, you just don't give them the ability to use sudo, and it's not any easier at all.
[07:48] <macd> Anyone experienced wifi not being able to obtain a dhcp address? it is associated, the AP/router shows its dhcp request, and shows a address assigned
[07:48] <Smilez> been using linux a while, not sure if SMP is installed
[07:49] <chip> root:root
[07:49] <insta> Smilez: ls /sys/devices/cpu/ ?
[07:49] <Aline_CutE> hallo
[07:49] <fsckit> i was using gpart on my windows drive to resize and it lost it's permissions. maybe i'm inputting the command wrong "sudo chmod -R 777 /media/hda1" is that right?
[07:49] <insmod> Flannel: wasn't my question just an answer
[07:49] <insta> chip: what's your samba share user running as?
[07:49] <Toma-> Smilez: SMP is enabled by default in the -generic kernel
[07:49] <Smilez> isnta: no directory./file
[07:49] <chip> insta huh?
[07:49] <Smilez> thanks Toma
[07:49] <chip> rephrase plz
[07:49] <thebillywayne> Adamhman, when you go to create your swap partition, you should have some unallocated space, and then select to create a new partition.  If you must, resize an existing parition to create some unallocated space.
[07:49] <Toma-> Smilez: basically, if you have 2 cpus, itll set them both up. if not, it will disregard the SMP code
[07:49] <insta> chip: somewhere in your samba config, you can specify who samba runs as when reading files
[07:49] <Myrtti> that's me fifth
[07:50] <Smilez> [   55.695186]  Brought up 1 CPUs <-- from dmesg | grep CPU
[07:50] <Aline_CutE> hay.....
[07:50] <Adamhman> I can't close the Install progrm
[07:50] <thebillywayne> doesn't remove --purge delete config files?
[07:50] <insta> !ops
[07:50] <Adamhman> I think I'm out for the night
[07:50] <z0x1c> chip: have you checked /var/log/samba/log.smbd immediately following a failed login attempt?
[07:50] <thebillywayne> Adamhman, but you're so close.
[07:50] <Madpilot> insta, ?
[07:50] <baudthief> I'm trying to read the contents of a printer driver disc inside an external DVD-R/W drive (USB), everytime I insert the disc, I get "Invalid option while trying to mount "EPSON", is there any way I can mount it manually?
[07:51] <Adamhman> I'll have to restart, and I'm booting off the CD.
[07:51] <Flannel> thebillywayne: yes
[07:51] <fsckit> can someone please help?? is my partition screwed or is it me?
[07:51] <insta> Madpilot: clones are coming back, can you re-add the ban?
[07:51] <arooni> lazaruslupine: i have an integrated intel grahpics card....... what do i need to do?
[07:51] <Adamhman> I'll create the root and give it a try later
[07:51] <Adamhman> thanks billywayne!!
[07:51] <Myrtti> it's not necessarily a bot attack

[07:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about folding - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:51] <chip> z0x1c, i'll do that right now.
[07:51] <thebillywayne> Flannel, ok. thought so.  got some folks at ubuntuforums who flagged --purge but whose beryl and emerald config files remained.
[07:51] <Myrtti> these people could be coming from behind a forced proxy or NAT
[07:51] <chip> insta i'm not sure what entry i'm lookin for. . .
[07:52] <lazaruslupine> arooni, probably need to look up specific instructions for your card (probably an i810 or i910) sorry i ididn't notice those were ati instructions
[07:52] <Flannel> thebillywayne: well, it only removes config files that were put there by package management.  If these are config files you've created, it won't remove them.
[07:52] <chip> but there's forced user (me) and forced group (users)
[07:52] <insta> Myrtti: they could, but if you'll look at what they're all saying, it's the same type of stuff

[07:52] <myr> wtf
[07:52] <Toma-> Wow.... ubotus lagging
[07:52] <thebillywayne> Flannel, are the ~/.config files created by the user?
[07:52] <hurt> big time
[07:52] <Flannel> thebillywayne: I imagine so, yes.
[07:53] <arooni> lazaruslupine: this is my laptop: http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11197991&Ne=4000000&N=4001604&Mo=90&No=4&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&cat=4797&Ns=P_Price%7C1%7C%7CP_SignDesc1&Sp=C
[07:53] <thebillywayne> Flannel, ok.  thanks.
[07:53] <insta> chip: how computer savy is the rest of your family
[07:53] <insta> there's a really easy fix to this that doesn't require fucking with permissions and involves sticking a dollar sign at the end of the share name on samba's side
[07:53] <Flannel> !language | insta
[07:53] <ubotu> insta: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:54] <insta> whoops
[07:54] <arooni> lazaruslupine: this is my card  Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
[07:54] <chip> "calm down insta"
[07:54] <chip> (=
[07:54] <lazaruslupine> arooni, not sure how to do it on that one: basically like everyone else is saying you need to edit you xorg.conf to include both displays
[07:54] <Smilez> next question: I installed/configured WINE, and then installed uTorrent... how the heck do i start it up now?
[07:54] <lazaruslupine> arooni ahh its a 950
[07:54] <insta> chip u sux.
[07:55] <chip> z0x1c, the last entry is the last time i restarted samba
[07:55] <Toma-> Smilez: "wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Path/To/utorrent/uTorrent.exe"
[07:55] <z0x1c> chip: strange... so, to be sure, it prompts you for a password but then never lets you in? what error message does Windows give you?
[07:55] <Smilez> thanks Toma
[07:55] <chip> z0x1c, windows doesn't prompt.
[07:56] <baudthief> how to I view a list of attached storage devices? (hdd / cdroms)
[07:56] <Smilez> I'm assuming I can turn that into a shortcut also
[07:56] <Toma-> Smilez: if you installed a desktop launcher, itll be under Apps>Wine>Programs
[07:56] <chip> just won't let me the crap in.
[07:56] <lazaruslupine> arooni, just to clarify: do you  want two seperate displays or you just want to use a monitor w/ your laptop?
[07:56] <insta> chip:
[07:56] <Smilez> Toma: you friggin ppl are so smart
[07:56] <Toma-> Smilez: sure can. right click the desktop and "Create Launcher"
[07:56] <Smilez> its right there :D
[07:56] <Toma-> :>
[07:56] <Smilez> I'm a silly bastard sometimes
[07:56] <arooni> lazaruslupine: the latter
[07:56] <z0x1c> chip, what error message do you receive? also, try accessing via IP address - \\192.168.whatever
[07:56] <insta> if you haven't configured samba to access directories as root, (it's likely using the "samba" user) your 600 permissions are preventing samba from reading the directory even if the user/password is right
[07:56] <Toma-> Smilez: i have a special Linux Skull cap that gives me +3 INT
[07:57] <Smilez> hahahah
[07:57] <lazaruslupine> arooni thats a bit easier let me look
[07:57] <chip> insta the $ fix . . . will that make it wide open? i suppose i could lock lower dirs to me, but again with the gun toting mama
[07:57] <Toma-> :P
[07:57] <Smilez> hehe
[07:57] <Toma-> Smilez: same. :)
[07:57] <Smilez> hahah
[07:57] <chip> insta ok good. how would i do that?
[07:57] <sgtmattbaker> how do you check to see if samba is run as root by default?
[07:57] <Smilez> the closest ill come to an online RPG is Twitter :D
[07:57] <insta> chip: try chmod 0777 on the mounted directory and try to access it with samba, if that works we'll go from there
[07:57] <Smilez> and I was reluctant about that as well.. but I hear its good for networking
[07:57] <eternalswd> anyone have any idea why xmodmap would suddenly not work after a restart?  I'm using it to switch my fault button 1 with button 8 on my mouse.  xmodmap -pp shows the correct mapping, but the mapping must not be active.  this happened after X crashed on me so I did a hard reboot.
[07:58] <chip> insta: sudo chmod 0777 ./data doesn't change the perms.
[07:58] <Polygon89> Hello, were do i report bugs for ubuquity? (the ubuntu gui installer)... on launchpad it says that ubiquity does not use launchpad for bug reporting.
[07:58] <insta> at all?
[07:58] <insta> add -R in there
[07:58] <eternalswd> forgot to add that I did try restarting X without effect
[07:59] <Smilez> by default, feisty can read/write to NTFS right?
[07:59] <chip> insta: error msg is . . .
[07:59] <T0uCH> hi all.. i got a problem, i am not able to open gaim.. and i cant reinstall whithout deleting ubuntu desktop... is there any other ways?
[07:59] <fsckit> anyone know how to change recursive directory file permissions?
[07:59] <Polygon89> TOuCH: delete .gaim (located in your home folder, usually you have to press ctrl+h to see hidden files)
[07:59] <yigal> T0uCH: in a terminal just "aptitude reinstall gaim"
[07:59] <chip> insta: "chmod: Changing permissions of './Yoh' : Read-only file system"
[08:00] <insta> chip: ntfs?
[08:00] <yigal> T0uch
[08:00] <T0uCH> yes?

[08:00] <Rio79> YO!!!!
[08:00] <hosk> hey, i have a question, i'm about to resize like a 300gb ntfs partition, the part is properly formatted, and all the data is near the front, will my data remain in tact on the ntfs part after install? 7.04b fiesty
[08:00] <chip> insta y
[08:01] <hotshot23t> yea it will remain intact
[08:01] <hosk> sweet
[08:01] <eternalswd> hosk, if there aren't any errors at least
[08:01] <Smilez> alright.... so far this has been a successful ubuntu boot/install party over here... so my next question (#3 for those following along) -- Is there a program like peerguardian out there? Or a script that will download blockable hosts?
[08:01] <chip> OTHER INFO... it's a dual boot system. When in windows, the drive works fine, so it's not locked down funkily or anything
[08:01] <chip> (sp)
[08:01] <Rio79> edward yo~\
[08:01] <chip> (xp sp2)
[08:01] <hotshot23t> run defrag before you resize it to make sure its all together
[08:01] <insta> chip, that's fine
[08:01] <insta> chip, unmount it
[08:02] <hosk> can i run defrag from 7.04b live cd
[08:02] <hosk> because the HDD that had windows is pwned
[08:02] <LaNCeloT_RW> hi dudes, how do I change the splash screen of gnome? that screen that show after login
[08:02] <chip> insta NOW we're getting into the meat of things, cuz i think there may be some kinda mounting BS goin on.
[08:02] <yigal> hosk: I don't think so
[08:02] <hotshot23t> no the live cd does not a defrag program
[08:02] <insta> chip: I have a lot of spare time and want boobies, we'll fix it
[08:02] <chip> in kde, when i try to unmount it via rightclick, it hollers at me. . . hold 1.
[08:02] <Polygon89> Hello, were do i report bugs for ubuquity? (the ubuntu gui installer)... on launchpad it says that ubiquity does not use launchpad for bug reporting.
[08:02] <yigal> hosk: you can use  fsck.nfs
[08:03] <Madpilot> hi jsgotangco
[08:03] <hosk> thanks!
[08:03] <hosk> it may come down to i just have to pray

[08:04] <chip> insta error msg: "device has /dev/hda2 volume.ignore set to TRUE. Refusing to mount" << get that when i r-click the mount dir and choose unmount.
[08:04] <eternalswd> fsckit, is it ntfs?
[08:04] <yigal> hosk: it doesn't do much though :(
[08:04] <Madpilot> jsgotangco, been busy, but around a bit
[08:04] <fsckit> eternalswd, yes, it is
[08:04] <insta> chip: go to cli root on that machine
[08:04] <chip> insta from from kio_media_mounthelper
[08:04] <Smilez> -- Is there a program like peerguardian out there? Or a script that will download blockable hosts?
[08:04] <chip> im' there
[08:04] <hotshot23t> if the data is all towards the front and you resize it you should be fine
[08:04] <insta> umount -l /mnt/ntfsdrive
[08:05] <insta> dash lowercase el
[08:05] <LaNCeloT_RW> orbin, im trying to find where did I put the image I did... its was easy as grabing into a window... but i couldnt find where =/
[08:05] <LaNCeloT_RW> i did it on the other HD, but im trying to do again.. and I cant remeber how LOL
[08:05] <chip> "sudo umount -l /dev/hda2" << that?
[08:05] <damejiar> hey see you
[08:05] <insta> chip: yeah, should do a 'lazy unmount' which whips it into shape
[08:05] <damejiar> Jordan_U :thanks for your help
[08:05] <edward> Question:  I have a Netgear WG311 installed, im using a 64 bit hex encryption and i am hiding my SSID, I cant get Ubuntu to connect to my router, what should i do?
[08:06] <eternalswd> fsckit, by default ntfs is read only, the driver that enables write is pretty stable but still in development I believe you need to install ntfs-3g
[08:06] <chip> insta hold 1.
[08:06] <T0uCH> i still cant uninstall gaim...
[08:06] <DarkkMinion> whats wrong with feisty and wireless cards?
[08:06] <myr> if i just resize my winxp and feisty partitions, it won't mess up grub or anything, right?
[08:06] <fsckit> eternalswd, nm, i got it, at least the first directory. i tried the -R command for recursive folders. did i miss something?
[08:07] <Smilez> DarkkMinion: The proprietary drivers
[08:07] <Polygon89> DarkkMinion, wireless cards and linux in general suck
[08:07] <Smilez> its not linux's fault
[08:07] <mynullvoid> how can I change my computer year? I use date in shell but no year there?
[08:07] <chip> insta ok. no response at the cli, kde changed the icon of the dir from a disk to that of a shared folder
[08:07] <Jordan_U> DarkkMinion, Nothing for me, what problem are you having?
[08:07] <eternalswd> fsckit, are you using ntfs-3g?
[08:07] <Smilez> DarkkMinion: You end up having to use Ndiswrapper most of the time
[08:07] <Myrtti> myr: be sure to go and unfraction your drives in Windows first
[08:07] <yigal> T0uCH: but you can reinstall it
[08:07] <yigal> T0uCH: just as I said earlier "aptitude reinstall gaim"
[08:07] <yigal> T0uCH: you may want to "aptitude clean" so that you download from an external source - if you want to do it from an external source
[08:07] <edward> dang, i have my SSID hidden, but im not using any WEP, should i just wait for an update to see if it gets fixed?
[08:08] <Jordan_U> DarkkMinion, What chipset is your wireless card?
[08:08] <hosk> i'm too scared to hit install because i don't want my data to go away :(
[08:08] <myr> Myrtti, defragment?
[08:08] <Myrtti> yeah
[08:08] <myr> ok
[08:08] <insta> chip: whoa.  external usb drive?
[08:08] <chip> no.
[08:08] <DarkkMinion> well i have a Realtek 8185 Wireless card that was working on edgy but now feisty is not recognizing it
[08:08] <Myrtti> doing resizing without defragging them first is asking for trouble
[08:08] <fsckit> nevermind people, since i used gparted on it, it is scheduled to be checked, hence the trouble. thanks
[08:08] <edward> Question:  I have a Netgear WG311 installed, im using a 64 bit hex encryption and i am hiding my SSID, I cant get Ubuntu to connect to my router, what should i do?
[08:08] <chip> insta it's internal 1st ide primary.
[08:09] <orbin> edward: how are you trying to connect?  and does iwconfig and iwlist scan show your interface & AP?
[08:09] <myr> Myrtti, i generally keep my system in good order
[08:09] <myr> thanks
[08:09] <Myrtti> myr: just a friendly reminder from a person who borked her hard drive once or twice... :-)
[08:10] <DarkkMinion> well i have a Realtek 8185 Wireless card that was working on edgy but now feisty is not recognizing it
[08:10] <edward> orbin: im very new to ubuntu, what is iwconfig?
[08:10] <Myrtti> a command line tool
[08:10] <Jordan_U> DarkkMinion, Is it showing in network-admin or network-manager?
[08:10] <yigal> myr: you might want to check out http://www.linux-ntfs.org/
[08:10] <MyR> yigal, will do, thanks
[08:10] <T0uCH> yigal.. i did what you said but when i click on gaim's icon gaim is loading but never open and stops..
[08:11] <DarkkMinion> no

[08:20] <kermitus> hey I was wondering why is it every time I plug in my usb pen drive, mount it and get ready to use it.. and the darn thing is set to root? If I mounted it why can't I manipulate it how I wish? I hate having to reset permissions every time I plug it in.. is there a workaround so that when I plug in my usb pen drive that the permissions are set to the user that mounted the dumb thing? Sry for...
[08:20] <chip> insta i don't see that drive listed (hda2)
[08:20] <bokey> Parmenion, goodluck!
[08:20] <kermitus> ...my question, I have had to relearn linux, my linux days were way back in the early 90's.
[08:20] <BVBBQ> can some one tell me how to install new fonts with ubuntu?

[08:20] <ubotu> BVBBQ: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[08:20] <sharperguy> i did it and it corrected it to a different work i didnt want
[08:20] <sharperguy> thats exactly what i typed in
[08:20] <variant> sharperguy: ok
[08:20] <edward> orbin iwlist scan http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19088/
[08:20] <insta> chip: anything related to your second drive
[08:20] <thebillywayne> kermitus, try changing the mount point to somewhere in /home.  :)
[08:20] <bokey> BVBBQ, 1. Download the font 2. copy it to ~/.fonts/ 3. run "fc-cache -f -v ~/.fonts/"
[08:20] <chip> yeah there's no hda2
[08:21] <kermitus> ohhh lol so /mnt/tmp is what did it?
[08:21] <BVBBQ> bokey can ubuntu run true type fonts?
[08:21] <bokey> yes
[08:21] <orbin> edward: well i'm assuming that your wireless card is working since it can see those networks.  now how are you trying to connect?
[08:21] <kermitus> i knew that, lol... thanks thebillywayne
[08:21] <thebillywayne> kermitus, glad to help.  :)

[08:23] <mEck0> I wonder how I can make a diff in svn for say a xmlHandler.java which name was menuHandler.java in an earlier revision? The name of the file is xmlHandler.java in my working copy now...
[08:23] <orbin> edward: top-right.  on the panel near the clock, you should see an icon of two computers.  left click on it, do you see the network?
[08:23] <insta> no shower yet
[08:23] <chip> insta, that was a reference to my stinkage.
[08:23] <edward> orbin it shows manual configuration
[08:23] <insta> chip: I know

[08:24] <noobguin> you know gde kde xde
[08:25] <noobguin> it says it is not configured
[08:25] <chip> insta why uid 1000?
[08:25] <orbin> edward:  ok.  type alt+f2, then run: gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces   ... that'll open up a text file
[08:25] <insta> I'm guessing that's your uid
[08:25] <insta> cat /etc/passwd | grep Yoh to double check
[08:25] <chip> frakkin KRESKIN you are.
[08:25] <AzMoo> If I leave my mouse cursor still it's jumping around. Not very far, just a few pixels from where it originally was. It's annoying the hell out of me. Anybody know why it's doing it?

[08:25] <noobguin> im runnin u 7.04 fiesty
[08:25] <slytherin> noobguin: Try command 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' provide all the inputs. Any by the way it is GNOME, KDE, XFCE.

[08:27] <karen> hi - i'm having problems booting the installer with a sata dvd drive on an intel p975 chipset motherboard - there's plenty of stuff on google, but mainly about dapper, then edgy - any ideas?
[08:27] <chip> insta, alright it's mounted... i can see the windows "System Volume INformation" dir but nothin else.
[08:27] <AzMoo> MM2_, slytherin, yep.

[08:27] <slytherin> sin18: lsusb?
[08:27] <chip> and there's plenty
[08:27] <MM2_> AzMoo: I think it's a feature, not a failure :)
[08:27] <insta> well, ls -lh /home/me/Yoh
[08:27] <orbin> edward: are the first two lines: "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback"?
[08:27] <insta> see who owns the files

[08:28] <insta> everything I'm doing is cli
[08:28] <AzMoo> MM2_, explain? Do you mean like an unintended "feature"?
[08:28] <kevil99> i like it
[08:28] <chip> how do i chk owner cli
[08:28] <slytherin> AzMoo: Not sure about usb mouse but my compaq optical mouse gives same trouble sometimes. I think it is hardware problem.
[08:28] <chip> insta how do i chk owner cli
[08:28] <thebillywayne> how do you change the mount point of auto-mounted usb drives?
[08:28] <MM2_> AzMoo: optical usb mouses sometimes does that. Try put some other mouse mat under it?
[08:29] <orbin> edward: ok, leave those two lines.  for everything other line there.  put a # in front, so it should look like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19089/
[08:29] <insta> ls -lh
[08:29] <insta> it'll say owner, group, and permissions per each entry in the file
[08:29] <AzMoo> Guess it's time for a new mouse then.
[08:29] <insta> folder**
[08:30] <lancer> #smc

[08:30] <insta> what are permissions?
[08:31] <chip> there's a bunch of other dirs that aren't showing . . .
[08:31] <orbin> edward: we're basically (i think) letting the icon with the two computers (network manager applet) take control of networking.  you might be having conflicts with network-admin.
[08:31] <chip> hold 1 lemme verify that hda2 is right.
[08:31] <edward> orbin well this is what i got http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19090/

[08:51] <MyR> sivaji, you need the gtk engine: sudo aptitude install gtk2-engines

[08:51] <reitblatt> MSTK: you can just do that at the login screen
[08:51] <noobguin> (ww) radeon: no matching device section for instance (busid pci:2:10:0) found
[08:51] <Myrtti> Wriest: the ones that come with it?
[08:51] <MSTK> Myrtti - right now to log into a CLI environment I have to log on, wait for X to load, then wait for the Gnome Terminal to load.
[08:51] <MSTK> reitblatt - ah, thanks.
[08:51] <james12296> Thanks.   Trying it now.
[08:52] <noobguin> what kinda info ya need
[08:52] <Wriest> I'm talking about like Beryl? etc..
[08:52] <reitblatt> noobguin: that happen right after installing?
[08:52] <noobguin> yup
[08:52] <orbin> MSTK: maybe a server install would better suit you if you don't use a desktop environ.
[08:53] <MSTK> orbin - I still use it, I just sometimes want an alternative.
[08:53] <orbin> MSTK: ah ok.
[08:53] <MSTK> I'm as big a Beryl/eye candy fan as the next guy, but sometimes a bit of simplicity can't hurt.
[08:53] <noobguin> any ideas
[08:53] <reitblatt> noobguin: check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingXAutoconfiguration
[08:53] <reitblatt> noobguin: also, please file a bug
[08:54] <reitblatt> lemme know the bug #
[08:54] <sivaji> !pastebin
[08:54] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:54] <Rat409> MSTK: you can edit /etc/inittab if you want it permanent,change the default 5 to a 3 its the first line
[08:54] <orbin> MSTK: personally the console font is too chunky for my piddly 1024x768 screen.
[08:54] <james12296> Excellent.  Works well.  Big Thank you.
[08:55] <MSTK> orbin - yeah, true.  is there any way to adjust it?
[08:55] <noobguin> no wait, it didnt happen after install,
[08:55] <sivaji> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19098/
[08:55] <noobguin> thats after manual config because it didn't auto detect
[08:56] <orbin> MSTK: i used to pass vga modes to grub to shrink it a little, but it doesn't seem to work as well in feisty.  personally i just use a full screen gnome-terminal.
[08:56] <noobguin> fatal server error: no screens found
[08:56] <levon> please someone help im trying to get nsfu2 to run but i get grey screens
[08:56] <MSTK> orbin - any way to configure it to open straight to a fullscreen gnome terminal?
[08:56] <levon> im running with wine
[08:56] <reitblatt> noobguin: please pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:56] <MSTK> selectively, though
[08:57] <MSTK> like creating a different Sessions option
[08:57] <noobguin> how, all i get is the shell?
[08:57] <sivaji> MyR : have a look at that link
[08:57] <MSTK> How do I create a new session, anyway?  According to the built-in docs, it's System -> Preferences -> Sessions, then Session Options tab and there should be a button.  But I see no such button.
[08:57] <MyR> sivaji, i am researching it

[09:02] <crouic6> hello, is there somebody who can help me with my old zipdrive iomega parallel on feisty ?
[09:02] <reitblatt> hikyuu_: why are you installing it manually instead of using fglrx provided by Ubuntu?
[09:03] <hikyuu_> reitblatt: because Cegeda suggests the drivers distributed by ATI instead of distribution specific drivers >.>
[09:03] <MyR> sivaji, try this: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows
[09:03] <hikyuu_> "Users with ATI Radeon 8500 or above video cards should use the proprietary ATI drivers available from www.ati.com. Some distributions build versions of these drivers for use with that specific distribution. These builds can sometimes cause conflicts and users may wish to use the drivers available directly from ATI."
[09:04] <reitblatt> hikyuu_: have you tried the Ubuntu drivers?
[09:04] <ranian> hello, how to  remove package gem command in ruby?

[09:47] <dooglus> Frogzoo: it only has one drive
[09:47] <dooglus> Frogzoo: they kept the other one when they replaced the first one
[09:47] <geo_> Do I have to do something besides putting scripts in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/ to be able to use them with nautilus?
[09:48] <geo_> i've placed a script there, chmod'ed it +x, but i can't see it on nautilus' context menu
[09:48] <Frogzoo> dooglus: how old's the drive?
[09:48] <dooglus> Frogzoo: about a week
[09:48] <sony> rothfuss: in brief,is there a package containing c++ man pages shuch as glibc for c programming
[09:48] <MyR> geo_, make sure they are executable
[09:48] <crdlb> geo_: did you restart nautilus?
[09:48] <geo_> crdlb: hm..i didn't try killall nautilus
[09:48] <dooglus> Frogzoo: I sent the laptop back when the 1st hdd died.  it came back with a new drive
[09:49] <Frogzoo> dooglus: well if it's a firmware bug, giving you an exact same drive will mean this one lasts a week same as the old one
[09:49] <rothfuss> sony: I am not aware of any man pages for c++ classes.
[09:49] <geo_> yay..it worked :)
[09:49] <rothfuss> sony: maybe try ##c++
[09:49] <MyR> geo_, to restart nautilus: nautilus -q
[09:49] <dooglus> Frogzoo: I don't think it's the same drive.  the old drive was completely dead
[09:49] <erb__> Does anyone know how to download 5 simultaneous files in wget? I can't find such an option in the man file.
[09:49] <dooglus> Frogzoo: it doesn't tap like this in Windows.  makes me think it may be a kernel bug
[09:49] <Frogzoo> dooglus: I mean same model/same firmware/same controller
[09:49] <sony> rothfuss: what is ##c++ ?? I come from Taiwan.
[09:50] <reptyl_> dooglus, i thried ctrl + alt + f7, the screen is just all white
[09:50] <dooglus> reptyl_: try ctrl+alt+f[8, 9, 10, 11]  - see if you can find the active screen
[09:50] <MyR> too slow :\
[09:50] <rothfuss> sony: the c++ irc channel.  do: /join ##c++.
[09:50] <reptyl_> i had to restart gdm to get things back to normal
[09:51] <sony> rothfuss: thanks~~
[09:53] <sony> rothfuss: nobody reply me.I'm sad.
[09:53] <reptyl_> dooglus, i am able to go back. problem is the screen is just all white
[09:53] <james12296> ok.  I'm stupid.   How do I change the directory to the desktop?
[09:54] <kane77> how can I find out what packages are available as source packages (eg I can use apt-get to build them)?
[09:54] <Madpilot> james12296, in the terminal? "cd /Desktop"
[09:54] <Madpilot> ubotu, cli | james12296
[09:55] <ubotu> james12296: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[09:55] <Frogzoo> james12296: cd ~/Desktop/
[09:55] <Braddf0rd> Hey, is there a reason everything on my taskbar gets out of order when I reboot
[09:56] <james12296> Thank you. Forgot the Capital 'D' i guess.
[09:57] <bokey> what lot of users are complaining regarding skype 1.3b true regarding voice ?
[09:57] <Madpilot> james12296, case matters on the command line
[09:58] <bokey> i.e., there is no work around ?
[09:58] <xjkx> I am frankly sorry if i am being off-topic but, my xubuntu doesnt run, it freezes on the very very beginning on "starting up", then i ran safe mode and it also frozen on: "cannot alocate resource for eisa slot 1, `same message` slot 4, freeing unnused kernel memory, input: At translated set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input1"
[09:58] <xjkx> and then freezes
[09:58] <xjkx> tried vga=normal as someone else recommended
[09:58] <xjkx> but did not work
[09:59] <xjkx> i dont even know if the problem is video card
[09:59] <xjkx> it doesnt even pass the first screen after grub
[09:59] <stefg> xjkx: so are there Eisa slots in your machine?
[09:59] <Braddf0rd> Does anyone know why, when I turn Compiz on all of my taskbar setting get messed up???
[09:59] <xjkx> stefg: unsure
[09:59] <outlaw84> where can I find a list of repositries for ubuntu?
[10:00] <stefg> xjkx: hmmm, then it will be very difficult to help you ...
[10:00] <Wriest> Braddf0rd: where did you get compiz from?
[10:00] <Horscht> how can I get temporary root rights in nautilus?
[10:00] <Braddf0rd> Came w/ Feisty
[10:00] <dooglus> Frogzoo: it doesn't tap like this in Windows.  makes me think it may be a kernel bug
[10:00] <xjkx> stefg: i am almost sure it doesnt
[10:00] <dooglus> 9I just booted into Windows to check, and its not tapping0
[10:00] <xjkx> stefg: wait, i think it really doesnt
[10:00] <Madpilot> ubotu, repos | outlaw84
[10:01] <xjkx> i have only PCI things
[10:01] <Wriest> I have Xubuntu do you know if it came with all version ubuntu?
[10:01] <ubotu> outlaw84: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[10:01] <xjkx> and my videocard is onboard
[10:01] <Braddf0rd> Wriest, Isn't that what the "Desktop Effects" or whatever is? Compiz?

[10:01] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[10:01] <Wriest> I'm new
[10:01] <sedra> hi all
[10:01] <Wriest> I just started Ubuntu
[10:01] <Wriest> hi sedra
[10:01] <rothfuss> Horscht: gksudo nautilus
[10:01] <stefg> xjkx: wht type of computer is it? age, processor, ram, desktop or laptop?
[10:02] <sedra> hi Wriest
[10:02] <Horscht> thanks
[10:02] <Braddf0rd> Wriest, oh then u can't h3lp me. :(
[10:02] <xjkx> stefg: desktop
[10:02] <Wriest> sry
[10:02] <bokey> Braddf0rd, play with gconftool-2
[10:02] <xjkx> stefg: i have a semprom 2600+
[10:02] <xjkx> 512 memory
[10:03] <stefg> xjkx: ah, ok , so it's halfway recent
[10:03] <Braddf0rd> bokey, where do I find that?
[10:03] <xjkx> kinda
[10:03] <stefg> xjkx: try passing acpi=off on the boot line and see if it boots then (for a test)
[10:04] <xjkx> stefg: i wouldnt think the problem is the eisa message but the last one, because its where it freezes, but i will try what you say, any other recommendations? its a pain in the ass to boot by livecd each time (funny is that it runs fine in livecd)
[10:04] <Braddf0rd> xjkx, how's that system running Ubuntu? I have a 2800+ Sempron/ 512Mb DDR400/128Mb (bland) video/40Gb 7200rpm 8mb buffer
[10:05] <Braddf0rd> xjkx, I mean, how's it handling everything for you?
[10:05] <bokey> is anyone here using skype 1.3b & has problem with voice ?
[10:05] <foo> hmm, -z for rsync is: "compress file data during the transfer" ... how exactly does it do this? Does that mean, like, compress it before it is sent and extract it when it's received or something?
[10:05] <xjkx> Braddf0rd: its not running, and as off-topic, its xubuntu
[10:05] <heh> .tin.it
[10:05] <xjkx> its handling nothing, lol, it stops on starting up messages
[10:06] <Braddf0rd> xjkx, Oh god... you can't even run terminal in xubuntu :<
[10:06] <stefg> xjkx: kernel problems aren't offtopic... be it xubuntu or ubuntu, they use the same kernel
[10:06] <xjkx> Braddf0rd: no terminals? :(
[10:07] <xjkx> stefg: good to know
[10:07] <xjkx> acpi=off thats what i will try
[10:07] <rausb0> Braddf0rd: try running xterm instead of xfce terminal (use alt-f2)
[10:07] <bokey> Braddf0rd, did you look at google link i sent you ?
[10:08] <Wriest> can someone tell me if compiz came with Xubuntu Feisty?
[10:08] <Braddf0rd> rausb0, Yes, I know, I've dabbled with it enough to know that it's not what I need...

[10:09] <YankDownUnder> Can someone give me - without a heap of "advertisement" - the specs on 7.04?
[10:09] <aalevy> hello, how do i view html pages with streaming wmv?
[10:09] <Braddf0rd> xjkx, Yeah, you're stuck using xterm, no drag and drop... that's really my only problem
[10:09] <bokey> !feisty

[10:09] <jago25> iwconfig is truncating my 256bit 64 character key to 104bit. How do I enter the key?
[10:10] <YankDownUnder> Ok - that's not what I wanted. Been there done that. I just want some plain out and out specs. Like kernel version (and minor), GTK version - etc etc etc
[10:10] <Braddf0rd> xjkx, if you haven't used it, if you try opening terminal you'll get kicked out and have to log back in, losing anything you were working on before then...
[10:10] <rausb0> jago25: 256bit? you mean 128bit?
[10:10] <crdlb> YankDownUnder: try distrowatch.com
[10:10] <jago25> rausb0, My key is 64 characters
[10:10] <rausb0> jago25: is it wep or wpa?
[10:10] <foo> YankDownUnder: Or try jer toilet jer belly livered toad!
[10:10] <jago25> rausb0, wep
[10:11] <YankDownUnder> Erf...ok...been there done that. Just trying to get some real life facts - not hype - not articles - not anything related to media - just reality.
[10:11] <jago25> rausb0, iwcondif just cuts off the last characters
[10:11] <Madpilot> YankDownUnder, Feisty's kernel is 2.6.20-15-*
[10:11] <crdlb> YankDownUnder: distrowatch.com lists exactly what you're looking for: package versions
[10:11] <YankDownUnder> foo, How's about I come over there and smack ya upside the head ya twerpy little geek... (I meant that in a GOOD way)
[10:12] <YankDownUnder> Madpilot, Ta - that's what I'm lookin fer.
[10:12] <rausb0> jago25: only 128(104) and 64(40) bit wep is supported. is 256bit wep a standard?
[10:12] <bokey> YankDownUnder, download it
[10:12] <bokey> YankDownUnder, they aren't advertisement!
[10:12] <YankDownUnder> bokey, How's about you download it and send it to me? I'm on a budget mate. Have kids and a foo to kill.
[10:12] <jago25> rausb0, well, my key is very long. I will just count the characters. It has worked before but now knetworkmanager isn't working so I'm having to do it by hand
[10:12] <Madpilot> YankDownUnder, Gnome is 2.18.1 (but like other ppl have said, this info should all be on distrowatch...)
[10:12] <bokey> YankDownUnder, well, you can always go to shipit.ubuntu.com
[10:12] <longgia2001> Hi all, I've just dist-upgrade to 7.04 from 6.10, my / partition free space decrease from 1.2G -> 815M, even I already apt-get clean. However, I found a lot of things that I don't need, eg: xorg-ati, xorg-nvidia, languages like thai, tamil .... I want to clear some spaces, but don't know where to start, can you give me an advice???
[10:12] <Wriest> I just downloaded Compiz 0.4 but I don't know how to install it
[10:13] <gong> why don't i hear the sound?
[10:13] <bokey> YankDownUnder, it's free
[10:13] <YankDownUnder> gong, You're deaf?
[10:13] <foo> YankDownUnder: Download ubuntu for you and mail it to you?
[10:13] <gong> ?
[10:13] <YankDownUnder> bokey, Yeah - I know it's free.
[10:13] <ChUck> oi
[10:13] <jpjacobs> Wriest, everything you install goes through synaptic (or an equivalent)
[10:13] <Braddf0rd> Hey, there's an app that comes with xubuntu that allows you to "tweek" your window prefs, does anyone know where you can get this or what it's called?
[10:13] <ChUck> alguma gatinha a?
[10:13] <jago25> rausb0, yep 64 characters is 256bit and it's a standard
[10:13] <bokey> YankDownUnder, so there's the solution to your budget ;)
[10:13] <YankDownUnder> foo, Ok. Give me some skinny before I attempt to d/l this monster tonight, eh?
[10:14] <edi> hi........
[10:14] <ChUck> hi

[10:14] <bokey> edi, wtf ?
[10:14] <bokey> hehe
[10:14] <Wriest> Well I don't have synaptic in this version
[10:14] <ChUck> hahahaha

[10:15] <ChUck> im from brazil
[10:15] <stefg> longgia2001: synaptic! go through he packages, read what they do, check waht dependencies they might take with them if you uninstall... but don't ecpect too much... all the xorg drivers total to less than 2 MB, so you might just leave them alone
[10:15] <bokey> 16-Male-Somewhere_in_this_planet
[10:15] <Madpilot> ChUck, be polite. And use English here, please. There is a Brazilian channel.
[10:15] <foo> YankDownUnder: hehe.
[10:16] <longgia2001> stefg, means I have to do it manually????
[10:16] <bokey> there's always #ubuntu-offtopic fellas
[10:16] <ChUck> vai se fuder seu gringo
[10:16] <stefg> longgia2001: errmm, how should the box know by itself, waht you want, and what not
[10:16] <bokey> ChUck, do you want to be kicked in the butt ?

[10:18] <New-User> i want to install ubuntu 6.06 LTS from my Hard drive, guide me how i do?
[10:18] <erpo> Kezman74: TV out can be a pain. If you have a nvidia card, plug in only the TV and reboot.
[10:18] <longgia2001> stefg, You are right, I should try your advice first
[10:18] <boom82> http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com/2007/05/did-microsoft-just-patent-sudo.html

[10:19] <eck> New-User: do you already have a linux distribution on the computer?
[10:19] <stefg> longgia2001: the 'apt-get do-what-I'm-thinking' command would be nice, but i's still in beta :-)
[10:19] <Kezman74> erpo: Yep I have picture, but the colours are all wrong.
[10:19] <New-User> im using windows XP and now want to install ubuntu

[10:20] <Kezman74> 7600 GS
[10:20] <bokey> New-User, geez, why are you using that horrible thing ?
[10:20] <eck> New-User: afaik you can only do a hard drive install if you already have linux installed
[10:20] <Kezman74> I have this in my device section: Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B"
[10:20] <crdlb> what about that debian windows installer?
[10:20] <New-User> i dont hav linux installed
[10:21] <erpo> Kezman74: Have you tried running the program nvidia-settings?
[10:21] <eck> crdlb: how does that work? i've never tried it before

[10:21] <Kezman74> brb

[10:32] <neildarlow> seahorse-agent has just stopped asking for my SSH passphrase via sshaskpass-gnome. any ideas?
[10:33] <stefg> xjlx: and debian uses the 2.6.18 kernel, which might make a difference, too
[10:33] <eck> djy_: hi
[10:33] <djy_> eck, are you chinese?
[10:33] <eck> djy_: no
[10:33] <eck> chinese support is in #ubuntu-cn and so forth

[10:33] <ubotu> wolvie: From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[10:34] <djy_> eck, ...... yes i know it
[10:34] <xjlx> i could just give up, but it RUNS fine on LIVECD, thats why i am very upset about that, it runs on live and cant on HD? thats uncool
[10:35] <neildarlow> xjlx: i've found that livecd and installer often handle hardware better than installed systems
[10:35] <stefg> xjlx: the install kernel is set up a different way... so go through the options like noapic, nolapic and try if you can help the kernel sorting it out
[10:35] <djy_>  	pidgin-2.0.0.tar.gz is coming
[10:35] <djy_> someone make the deb ??
[10:35] <stefg> !pidgin
[10:35] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept - At the time of feisty's final freeze, Pidgin has not been released, so Pidgin will not be going into feisty.  Expect Pidgin in feisty+1!  See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info
[10:35] <cein> anyone have insight on screen positioning?
[10:35] <bokey> djy_, nag one of the devels
[10:36] <bokey> djy_, probably buy them a beer. ;)
[10:36] <cein> also, what happened with the /dev/hdXY devices in FF?
[10:36] <neildarlow> cein: xvidtune might help
[10:36] <superdups> hey got a question about my video streaming an video play back in general....i only get red squares with x in the boxes.....help anyone
[10:36] <eck> djy_: you can compile it from the source, it is fairly simple
[10:37] <fiery_cleric> cein: whats the device names for hard drives in FF?
[10:37] <stefg> !UUID | cein
[10:37] <ubotu> cein: 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)
[10:37] <cein> fiery_cleric, i don't know
[10:37] <neildarlow> fiery_cleric: generally /dev/sdX
[10:37] <djy_> eck, oh..deb .is easy than source
[10:37] <fiery_cleric> ok reading the link....
[10:38] <djy_> AutumnCat, hi
[10:38] <eck> djy_: yes, but there is no (official) .deb yet
[10:38] <superdups> hi
[10:38] <jussi01> djy_: pidgin will be in feisty
[10:38] <neildarlow> fiery_cleric: where possible, libata is used so IDE drives look like SCSI to the system
[10:38] <kane77> how can I find out what packages are available as source packages in repos (eg I can use apt-get to build them)?
[10:38] <superdups> need some help with my video playback !!!!!!!!!!
[10:38] <djy_> eck.ok wait some times
[10:39] <cein> so /dev/hdX in EE will be /dev/sdX in FF?
[10:39] <neildarlow> superdups: playback in what?
[10:39] <eck> kane77: what do you mean?
[10:39] <djy_> jussi01, i say the 2.0 release.
[10:39] <superdups>  my video streaming an video play back in general....i only get red squares with x in the boxes.....help anyone
[10:39] <eck> djy_: the final release is not out yet
[10:39] <kane77> eck, to list the source repositories
[10:39] <jussi01> djy_: if its out on time I imagine it will be in feisty
[10:39] <neildarlow> cein: first drive is /dev/sda, second /dev/sdb etc. no direct one-to-one relationship with /dev/hdX
[10:39] <stefg> kane77: apt-build is what you are looking for, and open source means that probably all free programs' sources are available
[10:39] <ama-deus13> hello, everyone. i've got ubuntu 7.04 and one of the things i use my computer is writing MIDI music. i've installed Rosegarden, but as it starts i get "System timer resolution too low" message. what's that? is it possible to fix it? if not, are there any alternative MIDI editors with Notation (staff) view?

Followed the instructions, but when I rebootet I only got a lot of text, telling we what modules etc is starting up. I started to try to fix it. But I must have done something wrong, now when i boot, I only get a "test-screen" looks likte the ones on tv when there isn't a program, used to calibrate the image. I'm using the 7.04 version...

[10:41] <AutumnCat> djy_: no
[10:41] <neildarlow> superdups: in what program do you get the boxes?
[10:41] <stefg> ama-deus13: there is a low-latency kernel available.. use that
[10:41] <djy_> AutumnCat, 
[10:41] <variant> look2: that is probably the image in your theme
[10:41] <djy_> AutumnCat, ubuntu-cn
[10:41] <AutumnCat> d
[10:41] <elifed> superdups, in totem, or in embedded in web pages?
[10:41] <ama-deus13> stefg: how do i do that?
[10:41] <jussi01> kane77: apt-get source <packagename> will get you the source of any package in the repos
[10:41] <superdups> neildarlow: every video apt....i dowlloaded VLC and all it's pluggins and it is still happing
[10:42] <look2> variant: there shuld be another image, and now I can't change it back to the oroginal ubuntu splash
[10:42] <eck> kane77: also, apt-get buil-dep will get the build dependencies
[10:42] <eck> build-dep
[10:42] <superdups> neildarlow: it happens in the webpages and in totem
[10:42] <variant> look2: never changed the splash my self so can't really help i'm afraid

[10:42] <neildarlow> superdups: then it sounds like an X issue. is XVideo working?
[10:42] <variant> phy3: what do you mean?
[10:42] <phy3> ok
[10:42] <crdlb> phy3: what cards?

[10:42] <kane77> eck, jussi01, stefg thx I guess apt-build was what I was looking for...
[10:42] <look2> variant: ok, thnx anyway :)
[10:42] <ama-deus13> ok, got that! thx a million
[10:42] <variant> phy3: drives???
[10:43] <phy3> AGP is a 5600, and PCI MX420
[10:43] <crdlb> phy3: just use nvidia-glx
[10:43] <variant> phy3: you should be able to do taht no problem. might only have 3d acceleration on one of them though
[10:43] <phy3> They are supported, but by two different drivers
[10:43] <crdlb> there's not much advantage in -new anyway
[10:43] <predaeus> look2, are you dealing with usplash?
[10:43] <stefg> ama-deus13: sudo apt-get install linux-lowtancy (make sure you have multiverse enabled)
[10:43] <crdlb> phy3: they're both supported by nvidia-glx
[10:43] <stefg> ama-deus13: sudo apt-get install linux-lowlatancy (make sure you have multiverse enabled)
[10:43] <phy3> I'll look again...
[10:43] <crdlb> just the 5600 is /also/ supported by nvdia-glx-new
[10:43] <superdups> neildarlow: i am kinda new but what is it.....is it a service or just a program
[10:44] <ama-deus13> stefg, thx, i got that
[10:44] <elifed> neildarlow, I've had wonky issues when I use the gstreamer back end
[10:44] <phy3> Having both gave me a black screen on the Live CD
[10:44] <cein> i was running EE, had several partitions across two drives mounted in fstab
[10:44] <neildarlow> superdups: it's an operating mode of X. let's see if DRI is working first. what does "glxinfo |grep rendering" give you?
[10:44] <cein> when i upgraded to FF, only one partition (other than the ubuntu one) was mounted on startup, and i couldn't find any hdXY in /dev/
[10:45] <neildarlow> cein: then it's probably /dev/sda1
[10:45] <cein> ok
[10:45] <phy3> Thank you for the comments
[10:46] <stefg> cein: read the !UUID factoid. you got to replace the /dev/ - entries by UUID's

[10:46] <selim> hi, I have a strange problem I try to establish a vpn pptp tunnel with a running and activated wireless network adapter, every time I try to do this I get an error if I try the pptp tunnel with a wired network it works without any problems at all
[10:46] <MugginsM> so is the "can't have the end before the start" error while installing Feisty a known problem? I can't see any mention in launchpad
[10:47] <fiery_cleric> MugginsM: is that when you are partitioning ?
[10:47] <cein> hmm
[10:47] <MugginsM> fiery: yes, I've found one other report of someone saying it's when it's >200GB partition, I'm trying to do a 250
[10:47] <cein> if i do that, will i run into problems if i go back and run EE?
[10:48] <eck> MugginsM: you ought to be able to do the partitioning manually on the command line and install into that (might be tricky if you have to do resizing manually though)

[10:48] <cein> and, why didn't the upgrade automatically make this change?

[10:51] <crdlb> roland_: the easy way to do this requires you to manually configure the windows laptop, the hard way requires you to set up samba to make it automatic

[10:54] <digitalspaghetti> hey can anyone help me - my roaming applet has disappeared from my toolbar, and i cannot seem to add it back on to connect to the wireless network
[10:54] <Kaybol> could anyone help me with a broken Java (probably development kit?) after upgrading from Edgy to Feisty 7.04
[10:54] <Kaybol> error instantiating 'java.util.logging.FileHandler,' referenced by handlers, class not found
[10:55] <xxulipponddio> gregorovius      tu  eeres een eespaol
[10:55] <Kaybol> could be as simple as setting a classpath, but I'm clueless...
[10:55] <digitalspaghetti> when i go to add the applet back, the only one i can see for networking is the Network Monitor
[10:56] <predaeus> Kaybol, try to install java 6 with Add/Remove and check  "update-alternatives --config java"
[10:57] <crdlb> digitalspaghetti: it's not an applet at all
[10:57] <crdlb> digitalspaghetti: it's a tray app called "nm-applet"
[10:57] <Kaybol> predaeus: it used to work with Java 5, do I want Java 6?
[10:57] <crdlb> add that to your startup programs
[10:57] <digitalspaghetti> crdlb actually, i just typed nm-applet and got it working :)
[10:57] <digitalspaghetti> just before you said that
[10:57] <digitalspaghetti> (my google search was long but i got the details in the end :)
[10:58] <iwkse> hi all, there's a devel chan?
[10:58] <predaeus> Kaybol, from what I've heard yes, as it is the current release and likely faster
[10:58] <Kaybol> okay, I suppose I can run one next to the other as long as I'm not convinced :)
[10:59] <MilanZR> hello ppl,does any one of you know is possible to run AutoCAD on ubuntu???
[10:59] <predaeus> Kaybol, I think update-alternatives should allow for that
[11:00] <elifed> iwkse, I don't know, I'm just one of the sheeple :D
[11:00] <MilanZR> anyone?
[11:00] <mat1980> milan, autocad 2000 seems to work

[11:01] <MilanZR> somethings*
[11:01] <mat1980> milan, I don't know. I found it on application db of wine. Look at there.
[11:02] <MilanZR> thanks mat1980

[11:04] <assasukasse> i don't know which ttyS it is connected
[11:04] <assasukasse> how can i check that?

[11:09] <predaeus> Kaybol, as far as I know, if you have installed to java versions or probably just the java binary (not sure what is meant in this case) then you can update symbolic links with this application, so you can switch between 2 versions. You can change those links yourself but that can be messy
[11:09] <predaeus> *two
[11:09] <Kaybol> predaeus: ok I've installed Java 6, problem remains, it can't find basic Java classes
[11:10] <Kaybol> predaeus: feisty probably put Java in a different place than edgy or something
[11:10] <Kaybol> and now my apps can't find it
[11:10] <predaeus> hm, could be
[11:10] <tommy> What is the unstable name for package on 6.10-server?
[11:11] <predaeus> Kaybol, sorry I reinstalled Ubuntu to update from Edgy to Feisty so I don't know.
[11:11] <tommy> Not Edguy universe i gess?
[11:11] <Flannel> tommy: what?
[11:11] <jeff_> hi guys, is there a way to bypass ubuntu's 6.06 live session and directly run install?
[11:11] <Flannel> jeff_: not with the DEsktopCD, you want the Alternate CD
[11:11] <assasukasse> elifed: any idea on which port it should be?
[11:11] <predaeus> Kaybol, what happens if you set CLASSPATH or something?
[11:11] <Kaybol> predaeus: that's not very helpful ;) but yeah I did the same when installing Edgy
[11:12] <jeff_> Flannel: i only received 1 cd.
[11:12] <Kaybol> predaeus: still trying to find out what to set it to
[11:12] <elifed> assasukasse, I'm trying to figure out a way to determine that
[11:12] <Kaybol> sudo updatedb
[11:12] <tommy> Flannel: I cant install packages that are named universe on my server installation so i gess apt-get seach for wrong version
[11:12] <andrew_> Hola

[11:12] <andrew_> Hello
[11:12] <elifed> assasukasse, I wasn't sure what kind of card it was until a couple of minutes ago
[11:12] <Flannel> tommy: Have you enabled universe?  have you updated your package cache?
[11:12] <method_> with sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop -vv /home/x/a/canal-sm3a.cue /home/x/bin
[11:12] <method_>  i've got

[11:13] <Flannel> tommy: ok, do `sudo apt-get update`
[11:13] <Flannel> tommy: then try again
[11:13] <tommy> Flannel: done
[11:14] <tommy> Flannel: did upgrade and update after that didnt work
[11:14] <predaeus> Kaybol, cat /usr/share/doc/sun-java6-jdk/README.alternatives     will give you a short summery of the alternatives concept. No info about migration though :-(
[11:14] <Flannel> tommy: eh?  What are you trying to do exactly?
[11:14] <elifed> assasukasse, at least now I know it is an ISDN modem and your system can see it.  Moin btw

[11:16] <sanityx> tommy, Feisty is the current stable release.
[11:16] <Flannel> tommy: no.  Feisty and Edgy are both stable
[11:16] <Flannel> tommy: pastebin your sources.list
[11:17] <predaeus> Kaybol, the API says    java.util.logging.FileHandler

[11:19] <Stickymaddness> whose played sauerbraten? What are the grapics like? Some of the screenshots look like quake4 graphics, but others doom2....
[11:19] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: what do u mean ? ...
[11:19] <predaeus> Kaybol, cool
[11:19] <Kaybol> predaeus: sqldeveloper starts up nicely now
[11:19] <Kaybol> predaeus: and jboss app server has started crashing ;)
[11:20] <kvidell> ubuntu-unregged?
[11:20] <tommy> Flannel: should i change the edgy to feisty on all http package links?
[11:20] <Kaybol> stopped I mean
[11:20] <assasukasse> elifed: i found avm has a package, but only for suse
[11:20] <Kaybol> so that was great help predaeus
[11:20] <kvidell> do unregged nicks get thrown in there?
[11:20] <Flannel> tommy: no.  Why would you do that?  You're running edgy.  You use edgy packages.
[11:20] <predaeus> Kaybol, maybe needs an update too
[11:20] <predaeus> jboss
[11:20] <kvidell> it appears so
[11:21] <Kaybol> perhaps, but it seems to be working fine predaeus
[11:21] <Flannel> tommy: Er... wait.  What version ARE you running?  What does `lsb_release -a` give you?
[11:21] <predaeus> Kaybol, ah ok nice
[11:21] <Kaybol> thx predaeus, now I'll go help my colleagues with this ;)
[11:21] <elifed> assasukasse, avm?
[11:21] <tommy> Flannel: Ubuntu 6.10  codename edgy
[11:21] <predaeus> Kaybol, no problem, you are welcome
[11:21] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: I have a WD 160GB USB HD and I've formated at Ext3.  I have a dual-boot XP system and I've put all of my documents on this hd.  When I try and edit the files on the USB HD it says they are read only.
[11:21] <assasukasse> elifed: yes
[11:22] <tommy> Flannel: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/edgy/net/honeyd  http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/feisty/net/honeyd
[11:22] <tommy> Flannel: there you can see that 0.8 if for edgy
[11:22] <Lawnmower> anyone, do you know a nice ssh client that support "copy/past" im now using Putty.
[11:22] <Flannel> tommy: what about them?  What error do you get when you try and install honeyd?
[11:22] <tommy> Flannel: and i want to install the 1.5
[11:22] <Flannel> Lawnmower: PuTTy supports copy and paste
[11:23] <tommy> Flannel: that the 0.8 is current version
[11:23] <Lawnmower> It does not on my computer :(
[11:23] <method_> ok, i got bin opened in vlc player :D but voice is wrong vor vlc..i got some strange noises.. know how to change that?
[11:23] <Flannel> tommy: Ah.  If you want 1.5, you'll need to upgrade (your entire system) to Feisty
[11:23] <Flannel> !upgrade | tommy
[11:23] <ubotu> tommy: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:23] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: is the drive mounted read/write (rw, check using mount -v)  , and does your user own the files on the usb hdd?
[11:24] <pwuertz> hi, I need some help configuring name resolving... I installed dnsmasq, which allows a router to forwards dns requests to its known dns server... it also uses /etc/hosts to resolve names... so I entered some names for my clients behind the router... when i use "nslookup client2" or "host client2" these names are resolved correctly, but when I do "ping client2" the hostname is not found... I dont understand whats happening there, could anybody
[11:24] <pwuertz> help me please?
[11:24] <andrew_> well I don't think my user owns the files
[11:24] <elifed> assasukasse, I haven't used this method, but there is software called alien that can convert .rpm to .deb
[11:25] <assasukasse> uhm..elifed i installed capiutils and now i have another device in .static/dev
[11:25] <Flannel> elifed, assasukasse, avm has an ubuntu repository.  http://awn.wetpaint.com/  check the right side.
[11:25] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: I'm a very new user
[11:26] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: ok ... how did you copy the files to the usb hdd ?
[11:26] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: I don't think my user owns the files
[11:26] <Flannel> elifed, assasukasse, er... awn, not avn.  Sorry, I can't read.
[11:26] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: in windows
[11:26] <assasukasse> :)
[11:26] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: before I loaded Ubuntu
[11:27] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: then probably the usb hdd is FAT32 , not ext3 right?
[11:27] <elifed> Flannel, no worries, I'm glad someone else is also taking an intrest
[11:27] <andrew_> I formated before hand to insure it worked with Ubuntu
[11:27] <elifed> because I have to get ready for work in about 3 minutes :P
[11:28] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: and I have the driver for ext2 for windows
[11:28] <tommy> Flannel: Finaly you figure out what i was trying to convince you to, im running a dist-upgrade now :)  Thanks for chatting
[11:28] <elifed> nice to see that German hardware companies at least pretend to be Linux friendly
[11:29] <highvoltage> Scott Balneaves saves a life! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrUJNA-VFbE
[11:29] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: ok... i see , but you want all the files to accessible by your user on ubuntu ?
[11:30] <xjkx> i tried everything, noacpi, vga=771, vga=normal, noapic nolapic, and i cant boot, what should i do?
[11:30] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: yes and on windows as well.  Is that possible?
[11:30] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: I use the same folder as "my documents" in windows.
[11:31] <ateicos> hi guys
[11:31] <ateicos> can anyone help me? i'm not able to enable the parallel port
[11:31] <dougie> Anyone know of a guide or something on getting the windows xp media center remote to work in ubuntu? like work with xmms or amarok or something?
[11:33] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: ok from the terminal , u can type sudo chown -R username.username /media/usbdisk/* , where username is you username and /media/usbdisk is where the usb hdd is mounted , this will set the ownership of all files on the usb hdd
[11:33] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: I have never used the terminal yet.
[11:34] <dougie> or a guide for getting any remote at all to work? although the media center remote would be best as thats what i have....
[11:35] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: ok well basically what you need to do is set the ownership of the files on the usb hdd to your user under ubuntu
[11:35] <fiery_cleric> !permissions
[11:35] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[11:35] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: I under stand that
[11:35] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: how di I fined out where my usb hddd is mounted?
[11:35] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: have a look at those links
[11:36] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: system->admin->system monitor->devices
[11:37] <andrew_> ok
[11:37] <xjkx> here is where i freeze "Time: tsc clocksource has been installed."
[11:37] <andrew_> I think I got it
[11:37] <elifed> assasukasse, I'm reading the English version of the site (Ich bin Amerikanisch, und mein Deutsch is besser nicht gesagt), and it says that you can compile the driver if you have distro other than SuSE, is that part of the capiutils?
[11:38] <B1zz> Ive followed several guides to installing compiz on my unbunt, none seem to work, was wondering if anyone would be willing to help?
[11:38] <assasukasse> elifed: i am trying with capiutils and capifax...hope i will have luck
[11:38] <dac_> in Ubuntu, it's not nessessary to run an antivirus?
[11:38] <andrew_> fiery_cleric:  does this sound write? usdo chown -R andrew.andrew /media/Documents
[11:39] <zaggynl> !virus
[11:39] <ateicos> can anyone help me? i'm not able to enable the parallel port in epp-mode
[11:39] <ubotu> A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[11:39] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: when I hit enter after nothing happened, just another line
[11:39] <stefg> ateicos: BIOS-setting?
[11:40] <ateicos> bios?
[11:40] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: in the terminal, if it gives you no output that means the command worked usually
[11:40] <elifed> assasukasse, I'm sorry to bail out on you with this unresolved, but I have to get ready for work.  Tschuess!
[11:40] <andrew_> ok so It should work now?
[11:40] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: try accessing it now
[11:40] <andrew_> ok
[11:40] <assasukasse> elifed: thanks anyway :D
[11:40] <ateicos> i have a primax scanner. i've installed primaxscan. when i execute i have an error message
[11:41] <stefg> ateicos: that is normally not controlled by the OS, but by the little blue screen you get when you press esc or del or F2 at bootime
[11:41] <ateicos> This Port does not support the  EPP-Mode
[11:41] <ateicos> Please activate EPP-Mode or

[11:41] <ateicos> The activated and detected Modis are:

[11:42] <ateicos> i'll try
[11:44] <nikusan> Hi all, can anyone give me some pointers on how ubuntu treats mixed mode cds (data + audio tracks). More specifically, how do I get at the audio when Ubuntu doesn't recognise the cd as either data _or_ audio and just does nothing?
[11:44] <ssaa> hello . i need some help with qsynaptics please. I can't configure anything on it
[11:44] <xjkx> stefg: do you think if i download a kernel on kernel.org and compile would make it work?
[11:44] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: sudo chown -R andrew.andrew /media/Documents/* , it should ask u for your password , then it should work
[11:45] <andrew_> ah I forgot the star
[11:45] <kane77> how do I add folders into "Places" menu?
[11:47] <fiery_cleric> kane77: from nautilus (file manager) places menu , or i think you can also do it from some open dialog boxes
[11:47] <moDumass> awesome, hey any idea how to get vid out working in ubuntu? geforce fx5950ultr
[11:47] <davidisko> hi guys, what is rc status in dpkg --list?
[11:47] <moDumass> its breaking my brain
[11:47] <predaeus> kane77, I think you can bookmark the current folder in Nautilus and it will be added therer then
[11:47] <stefg> xjkx: yes, if you configure it right
[11:47] <predaeus> -r
[11:48] <xjkx> stefg: just make oldconfig woudltn work?
[11:48] <zaggynl> Who should I ask to put an edit function on launchpad?
[11:48] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: YES THANK YOU.  Now I can my work down. Thanks.  I did have to close the dir then reopen it first
[11:48] <zaggynl> I would like to be able to edit my comments there
[11:48] <davidisko> apache2: Syntax error on line 70 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/cband.load: API module structure `cband_module' in file /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_cband.so is garbled - perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO?
[11:48] <kane77> fiery_cleric, predaeus, thx..
[11:49] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: thanks
[11:49] <stefg> xjkx: no... ubuntu kernels are heavily patched (as you experience) . and you have to avoid compiling the unneeded/unwanted stuff.
[11:49] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: no problem, ive not used ext2/3 under windows, but there is probably a place that u can set the UID/GID user id group id , for the files it creates so u can transfer them to ubuntu without having to reset the permissions each time
[11:49] <andrew_> Tomorrow I'll try and get Beryl working
[11:50] <davidisko> does anyone know what is rc status in dpkg --list?
[11:50] <balor> davidisko: It means that the app is uninstalled by the config files are left.
[11:50] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: well I have no I deal what a UID/GID is yes.
[11:50] <andrew_> yet
[11:50] <balor> davidisko: dpkg --purge pkg_name to remove the config files
[11:51] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: I'm going to try and get my paper work down before my spelling gets any worse.
[11:51] <davidisko> balor: ah, thx
[11:51] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: thanks again
[11:51] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: no problem good luck!
[11:51] <Angel-SL> anyone of you know of a proxy that works so that I can bypass rapidshare's silly ip checks?
[11:52] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: Will I still have permission to edit these files in Windows?
[11:52] <ateicos> who can help me to activate parallel port (epp-mode) support into ubuntu?
[11:53] <fiery_cleric> andrew_: probably .... i am not sure how the permissions of ext2/3 driver work under windows , but it can probably just ignore them
[11:53] <andrew_> fiery_cleric: thanks for the help.  Take care
[11:53] <kane77> fiery_cleric, predaeus, can somtehing like nested menus be done?

[12:25] <dromer> ok wtf, the strengest thing just happened for the 2nd time this week: the system froze completely (X completely frozen, can't even access with ssh) keyboard completely unresponsive (not even ctr+alt+sysrq->rseiub), numlock gts turned off and caps+scrolllock are blinking
[12:25] <Vertiron> mmhm, but it detects nothing, no wrong inaccessible drives just nothing
[12:25] <kayef> any printing software for Ubuntu similar to FinePrint in windows?
[12:25] <gordonjcp> dromer: kernel panic

[12:25] <tim167> can i import a *.PDF in OpenOffice and edit it ? how ?
[12:25] <gordonjcp> dromer: well it's kind of hard to track down
[12:26] <gordonjcp> dromer: can you pin it down to anything you're doing?
[12:26] <mjr> tim167, no, it's not really an editable format

[12:26] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:27] <newbie00058> I'm having trouble partitioning a harddrive
[12:27] <Vertiron> beaver: thanks for trying ;)
[12:27] <tim167> mjr, ok, so is there a terminal command to open it with document viewer or so ?
[12:27] <variant> tim167: you can overlay text or you can make it an image and edit it.
[12:27] <beaver> Vertiron: np :)
[12:27] <mjr> tim167, evince is the usual Ubuntu/Gnome PDF viewer
[12:27] <mat1980> newbie, what's the problem?
[12:27] <_filippo_> hi is there a way to remove gaim from ubuntu feisty?
[12:28] <tim167> variant, i want to get my text from a pdf and edit it as text, i guess i can just copy/past into OpenOffice...
[12:28] <newbie00058> the partioning program gives an error message,,
[12:28] <_filippo_> it asks me to remove ubuntu-desktop and nautilus-sendto
[12:28] <mat1980> filippo, open synaptic, search gaim and remouve it
[12:28] <dromer> gordonjcp: well, I'm running beryl, the previous time I was watching a movie, but now it happened when scaling all the windows (not sure how that option in beryl is called), I'm running KDE as the secondary wm btw
[12:28] <mat1980> filippo, it is save to remove ubuntu-desktop
[12:28] <predaeus> _filippo_, ubuntu-desktop is just a meta package so nothing will be removed.
[12:28] <_filippo_> mat1980: how could i remove it without removin nautilus-sendto?
[12:28] <progek> I tried installing java6 firefox plugin with apt-get (sun-java6-plugin) and also the fonts package but firefox still cannot recognize java applets. Still says I need to install missing plugins. Any way to fix this? I'm using Feisty, 32 bit
[12:28] <newbie00058> mat180: it can't create the 3rd partition beacues it occurs before the last partition
[12:28] <mjr> tim167, yes, copypaste would probably be the best way to do it
[12:28] <_filippo_> i know that ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage
[12:29] <tim167> mjr evince: command not found, wasnt it called documentviewer or something ?
[12:29] <predaeus> _filippo_, I guess nautilus-sendto is using gaim to send things, if you have no gaim you don't need sendto
[12:29] <mat1980> filippo, sorry, I don't know.
[12:29] <mjr> tim167, that's what it's called in the menus, evince is the actual name and command
[12:29] <beaver> Vertiron: download the 6.10 and dist-upgrade 7.10, i think that will resolve your problems
[12:29] <_filippo_> predaeus: nautilus-sendto is used by evolution an gnome-bluetooth
[12:29] <crdlb> tim167: there's an app called pdftotext
[12:29] <tim167> mjr, i can find it in the menu and browse to the location and then open the pdf from there, but i rather like just typing some command
[12:29] <beaver> -->7.04, sry :)
[12:30] <predaeus> _filippo_, hm
[12:30] <tim167> crdlb cool i'll see if i can find that
[12:30] <newbie00058> "Can't have the end before the start!" it is listed as a bug.
[12:30] <crdlb> tim167: it's in poppler-utils
[12:30] <mat1980> newbie, what is the error message?
[12:30] <crdlb> !find pdftotext | tim167
[12:30] <predaeus> _filippo_, no idea then sorry, Things are too entangled in gnome now.
[12:30] <_filippo_> predaeus: am i wrong?
[12:30] <dougie> i'm trying to install the modules i need to run LIRC and i'm not real sure how to do that...i installed LIRC from the package manager but it didn't install all the modules for some reason so i was trying to install LIRC through manual install but thats giving an error when it tried to creat a directory and what not so how can i install the modules manually?
[12:30] <ubotu> tim167: File pdftotext found in poppler-utils, xpdf-utils
[12:30] <stefg> _filippo_: it's a dependancy, so either live with gaim, or live without nautilus-sendto
[12:30] <progek> Can someone help with firefox + java? I tried installing java6 firefox plugin with apt-get (sun-java6-plugin) and also the fonts package but firefox still cannot recognize java applets. Still says I need to install missing plugins. Any way to fix this? I'm using Feisty, 32 bit
[12:30] <predaeus> _filippo_, no I guess you are right
[12:30] <newbie00058> nat1980: The error message is: "Can't have the end before the start!"
[12:31] <tim167> crdlb thanx
[12:31] <_filippo_> stefg: i'll try to uninstall nautilus sendto to see if bluetooth and send to evolution still works
[12:32] <mat1980> newbie, well... you are telling the program to create a partition that start at x and ends at y, with y < x. That has no sence.
[12:32] <gordonjcp> dromer: what graphics card are you using?
[12:32] <newbie00058> mat1980: I only give the program 1 variable which is the size.
[12:33] <mat1980> newbie, how is your partition table?
[12:33] <newbie00058> mat1980: I think it is a logic error in the program, or else I am doing sometihng wrong. I am following the directions on a wiki
[12:34] <newbie00058> I have a 300 gig hard drive I want 3 partitions.
[12:34] <mat1980> niewbie, probably you have done something that has confused the program. Have you tried to close the program and start it again?
[12:34] <jamie_k>  my ipw3945 wireless driver (lenovo 3000 v100, ubuntu feisty) recently failed unexpectedly after working out of the box. anyone in the mood to help? :)
[12:35] <dromer> gordonjcp: nvidia 6200
[12:35] <newbie00058> mat1980: Yes a few times. It is listed as a bug on a different version of ubuntu.
[12:35] <stefg> newbie00058: there's apparently a bug with the partitioner on drives > 250 GB. don't use the built-in one, rather partiton your disk by other means and assign the premade partitions to the installer
[12:36] <_filippo_> stefg: as i have supposed removing gaim removes nautilus-sendto even if it was used by evolution and gnome-bluetooth just because it doesn't appear to be a dependency of them.. IMHO this is a bug
[12:36] <dinochopins> hi ... everyone
[12:36] <newbie00058> mat1980, stefg: if I boot to command  would that work?
[12:36] <dinochopins> I have decoded my mail using PHP Pear mime
[12:36] <newbie00058> mat1980, stefg:   I mean text mode.
[12:36] <dinochopins> and I change some of the structure
[12:37] <dinochopins> how can I encode it again and send it back ?
[12:37] <_filippo_> stefg: trying to install again nautilus-sendto install also gaim even if they have nothing to do together
[12:37] <dinochopins> thanks in advance....
[12:37] <stefg> _filippo_: that's a design decision. File it as a bug if you feel like it, but it's likely to get ignored
[12:38] <_filippo_> stefg: are you an ubuntu mantainer?
[12:38] <_filippo_> stefg: it's a bug.
[12:38] <_filippo_> stefg: gaim may require nautilus-sendto but nautilus-sendto doesnt require gaim in any way
[12:38] <stefg> _filippo_: no, just an ordinary user, which is unsatisfied with some decisions as well.
[12:39] <sanityx> Is it possible to see how automount mounted a drive?
[12:39] <sanityx> Like what command it issued?
[12:39] <stefg> newbie00058: use the alternate install.
[12:39] <dinochopins> how do I pipe message to sendmail from a PHP script ?
[12:39] <stefg> !alternate | newbie00058
[12:39] <ubotu> newbie00058: 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
[12:40] <newbie00058> stefg: should I not try from the terminal ?
[12:40] <stefg> newbie00058: are you on a Desktop-CD now?
[12:41] <newbie00058> stefg: yes
[12:41] <agresor> !Minimal | agresor
[12:41] <agresor> :D
[12:41] <newbie00058> stefg: I am following a wiki, perhaps I should send them an email
[12:42] <stefg> newbie00058: there's not much that you can try from the comannd line to actaully install ubuntu-to disk. you need a completly different installer
[12:43] <ConfidentiaL> what is the best fan controller for ubuntu?
[12:43] <newbie00058> strfg: I see thanks.
[12:43] <newbie00058> thanks everyone
[12:43] <stefg> ConfidentiaL: jono bacon
[12:43] <gary>  Any qmail gurus in here know about removing the queue.  I asked in #qmail but no answer yetr
[12:44] <gordonjcp> dromer: some people have problems with the nvidia drivers
[12:44] <dromer> hmm
[12:44] <dromer> I upgraded last week btw (edgy->feisty)
[12:44] <jono> stefg: heh
[12:44] <ConfidentiaL> stefg: what is the apt package for it?
[12:46] <stefg> ConfidentiaL: so you see jono controls the fan-boys... you might be more interested in lm-senesors
[12:48] <moDumass> evening all, so i have the nvidia xserver settings up and playing, but im strugglish to have tv out svhs going
[12:48] <moDumass> any ideas?
[12:49] <cyril_> hi
[12:50] <ConfidentiaL> stefg: I already have lm-sensors, but I can't seem to find jono or whatever it was...
[12:50] <cyril_> anyone know why network manager can't connect to unsecured wireless networks ?
[12:50] <davidisko> balor: do you have any idea? apache2: Syntax error on line 185 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/cband.load: API module structure `cband_module' in file /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_cband.so is garbled - perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO?
[12:51] <stefg> ConfidentiaL: that was a joke! Joo is the community manager of ubuntu ... the /fan/-controller ... got it?
[12:51] <balor> davidisko: yeah.  Looks like the module is garbled.  Did you compile it yourself?
[12:51] <ConfidentiaL> stefg: not really...:/
[12:53] <davidisko> balor: no, i installed it via apt-get install apache2.2-common libapach2-mod-cband
[12:54] <balor> davidisko: I've never used the module, so I can't help.  Grab one of the devs maybe on #apache?
[12:55] <ConfidentiaL> so, do anyone know of a good fan controller with gui for ubuntu?
[12:56] <simonhellstrom> join/ #ubuntu-sv
[12:56] <riffic> http://digg.com/software/Pidgin_2_0_Final_released_on_sourceforge can I get a courtesy digg ?
[12:56] <riffic> this is pertinent info to anyone who is interested

[01:03] <WriestSix> how can I change the font
[01:05] <tsactuo> anyone knows how I can disable the effects of windows when minimizing?
[01:06] <W_o_r[l] d> !ext3
[01:06] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[01:06] <YankDownUnder> Er....
[01:06] <W_o_r[l] d> !reiserfs
[01:06] <ubotu> reiserfs is a journalling file system, in benchmarks it outperforms many others on I/O operations, but they take notoriously long to mount.
[01:06] <YankDownUnder> Reiserfs rulez.
[01:06] <ConfidentiaL> does anyone know of a good fan-controller with GUI for ubuntu?
[01:06] <YankDownUnder> T'ain't no other.
[01:07] <YankDownUnder> Fan controller?
[01:07] <YankDownUnder> www.gnomefiles.org
[01:07] <YankDownUnder> check.
[01:07] <aidan> I've added in some new disks and deleted some partitions, how do I update /etc/fstab automatically?
[01:08] <YankDownUnder> You can do it automagically by hand?
[01:08] <W_o_r[l] d> !fat32
[01:08] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[01:08] <phy3> Well, all the sudo stuff has made me go for a one character password....
[01:09] <phy3> Anyone want to try to crack it?
[01:09] <jrib> phy3: that's kind of dumb
[01:09] <phy3> Nope, 25 more guesses
[01:09] <aidan> YankDownUnder: via mount or do I edit /etc/fstab?
[01:10] <rausb0> phy3: 
[01:10] <YankDownUnder> aidan, Best bet - really - is to use Webmin - but that's a bit complicated...
[01:10] <jrib> aidan: unmount anything that you modified and run 'sudo mount -a'
[01:10] <bobstro> phy3: why not just keep a good password and sudo -i if it bothers you?
[01:10] <phy3> new at it don't know all the tricks
[01:11] <YankDownUnder> mount -a => automagically mounts everything that there is to mount. Might not always be the best bet.
[01:11] <aidan> jrib: that doesn't appear to have mounted my two new disks
[01:11] <jrib> aidan: well i read your question as you edited fstab and wanted the changes to take effect, if that's now what you meant then what I said won't do anything
[01:11] <bobstro> phy3: you can also set up sudo NOT to ask for passwords for certain commands or certain users, but that needs to be considered too.
[01:11] <aidan> jrib: ah, both apply
[01:12] <aidan> jrib: mount -a needed to be done, how do I magically mount my new drives?
[01:12] <bobstro> aidan: are they removable, or permanent disks?
[01:12] <aidan> permanent
[01:12] <tsactuo> anyone knows how I can disable the effects of windows when minimizing?
[01:12] <aidan> /dev/hda and /dev/hdb
[01:12] <jrib> aidan: add them to fstab, you can try using the script at:
[01:12] <jrib> !ntfs > aidan (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:12] <aidan> jrib: they are ext3
[01:12] <stefg> phy3: read the !root factoid and consider reading man sudo. You can specify which commands need a password, and which not. Everything is better than a 1 letter password
[01:12] <phy3> Those are interesting points.... thank you
[01:12] <ilfra> !nick Rugg3
[01:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nick rugg3 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:13] <bobstro> aidan: i'm not aware of anything that will automatically update /etc/fstab if that's what you're after.
[01:13] <aidan> okay, what do I need to put in /etc/fstab, there's funny UUID stuff I haven't seen before in a normal linux fstab
[01:13] <persen_> Hi, i've read that pptpconfig is broken on edgy, so, anyone know how i can fix/overcome this problem? either by downgrading maybe or something else
[01:13] <phy3> I will check that out before I do a final installation, just playing around now, thanks!
[01:14] <stefg> !UUID | aidan
[01:14] <ubotu> aidan: 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)
[01:16] <phy3> Currently have desktop intalled over the server distro running as a guest under VMWare server in windows...
[01:16] <jrib> aidan: if you pass the right switch it will find the new ext3 partitions, but you still need to delete the lines for stuff that no longer exists
[01:16] <fastly> anyone here know how to extract rar files in ubuntu?
[01:16] <jrib> !rar > fastly (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:16] <stefg> !rar | fastly
[01:16] <ubotu> fastly: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[01:16] <fastly> e.g. which file to download...
[01:17] <fastly> which package...
[01:17] <jrib> fastly: the link ubotu gave you explains
[01:17] <bobstro> tsactuo: which effects do you mean?
[01:17] <fastly> thanks
[01:18] <victorr> y
[01:19] <victorr> test
[01:19] <aidan> jrib: okay, excellent, it's found all my disks and gives me the UUID. What then? Do I have to come up with the code for /etc/fstab or can I get that from another tool?
[01:20] <jrib> aidan: are you sure it didn't add them to your fstab already?  I haven't used it in a while but I think that's how it works

[01:26] <viper> problem with wireless: please help; hardware is seen by ubuntu driver is noticed, I can ping the ip as well but no connection with mozilla
[01:27] <ben_underscore> viper: can you go to another site?
[01:27] <duelboot> viper, can you ping outside your net?  try to ping an external ip and see what you get
[01:27] <rausb0> viper: check /etc/resolv.conf for nameserver settings
[01:27] <viper> external ip can be pinged as well, i'm now using my wired connection by the way
[01:28] <aidan> jrib: ,errors=remount-ro 0 1  ... do I need this for non o/s partitions?
[01:28] <jrib> aidan: no
[01:28] <duelboot> viper, it doesn't matter if you can ping it with the wired, you have to try it over the wireless
[01:28] <aidan> UUID=e32ad53b-c508-45b4-ae6c-93e2ad63d8d1 / ext3 defaults is fine then?
[01:29] <duelboot> viper, in addition, is your wired connection set on the router as the wireless?
[01:29] <viper> i have tried it with wireless as well, the results are the same
[01:29] <aidan> how does it know where to mount them?
[01:29] <b_9> on my dell inspiron m1710 I upgraded my alsa and my machine will no longer sleep.  what do I do?  are there logs that tell me what is happening when I ask it to sleep?
[01:30] <viper> even tried it on an open wireless connection elsewhere but the same there, so it must be the config
[01:30] <fiery_cleric> hi, i am installing feisty, is there any way to stop the installer installing grub ?
[01:30] <aidan> ohh
[01:30] <aidan> I got it.
[01:30] <duelboot> viper, can you get to any site?
[01:30] <viper> why
[01:31] <viper> no not with wireless but i can with wired
[01:32] <fnf> fiery_cleric: no, that is part of Ubiquity, if you want to hand-configure GRUB, try the Alternate or Server CD

[01:45] <asherZ> ubuntu makes me smoke more weed :o
[01:45] <LjL> troll party in #off-topic
[01:45] <aidan> what versions of file-roller support multipart rar files?
[01:45] <sanityx> How safe do you guys think it is to run the proposed updates
[01:45] <sanityx> fairly safe right
[01:46] <LjL> aidan: i don't know about file-roller, but i think you need "unrar" (as opposed to "unrar-nonfree") to handle them...
[01:46] <LjL> sanityx: no, fairly madly unsafe
[01:46] <vakosel> hi new comer !! the command to get build capabilities is sudo apt-get build-essential?
[01:46] <sanityx> LjL, Really?
[01:46] <sanityx> LjL, Well I know that 2 days ago proposed updates fixed my iPod.
[01:46] <noiesmo> vakosel, to install use sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:46] <LjL> sanityx: i've no idea why they're even listed in the GUI. yes, really. i tried to fix someone's broken systems more than once, due to using the proposed updates. there's a reason they're just "proposed"
[01:47] <vakosel> thx noiesmo
[01:47] <LjL> sanityx, well you could just have waited a couple more days until they had been tested and put in the actual updates. if you like to run risk, that's fine, but proposed updates are mostly *lacking testing*, and might break things badly
[01:47] <sanityx> ok
[01:48] <asherZ> ohh i forgot i need help :D i have 2 hdd one for windows 80gb and one for ubuntu 10gb. i can mount the windows ntfs disk but cant write to it :) anyone help me out. wud be appreciated
[01:48] <aidan> LjL: yep, installing unrar let file-roller unrar them. very cool.
[01:48] <sanityx> LjL, Well let me ask you this. If I remove that repository, adn then apt-get update apt-get upgrade, will it downgrade the packages?
[01:48] <mc44> !ntfs-3g | asherZ
[01:48] <ubotu> asherZ: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:48] <asherZ> mc44: ty
[01:48] <LjL> asherZ, Linux doesn't have write support for NTFS, as NTFS's specifications are closed. there is something that lets you write to it available - the bot just told you - however, be aware it's not trivial to make work, and potentially dangerous.
[01:49] <sanityx> LjL, Actually it is trivial.
[01:49] <asherZ> ok :)
[01:49] <sanityx> unmount the ntfs partition and then ntfs-3g /dev/ntfspartition /media/mountpoint
[01:49] <sanityx> and thats it
[01:49] <LjL> sanityx: depends who's doing it, adding a repository to sources.list is far from trivial for quite a few people.
[01:49] <asherZ> its no big issue as i only need to mount it for 20gbs of music
[01:50] <sanityx> LjL, Oh right, ntfs-3g isnt in the main repositories. I always forget that since I always add all the extra repositories right away
[01:50] <sanityx> asherZ, if you need help modifying your sources.list file I reccomend using
[01:50] <sanityx> !sourceomatic
[01:50] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[01:50] <ward_> is it possible to automatically switch off the wallpaper and desktop effects when someone connects with vnc?
[01:50] <asherZ> :D
[01:50] <mc44> LjL: eh? its in universe :)
[01:51] <LjL> mc44: apparently, with 7.04 it is. i'm as surprised as i can get, although i was trying to play down my surprise :P by the way, do you happen to have any clue why sev has removed all the unofficial repositories from som?
[01:51] <cipherz> is the ntfs-3g driver stable ?
[01:51] <LjL> cipherz: it's probably got to the state where it's "stable enough" not to break most people's filesystems.
[01:51] <fiery_cleric> pretty cool how u  have a desktop/apps while installing feisty , makes it a lot less boring
[01:52] <cipherz> LjL, ok heh ''stable enough''... but thanks
[01:52] <asherZ> i remember trying NTFS Config Tool yesterday and Enable write for internal device was disabled in options... only external was available but i dont have ext hdd :)
[01:52] <mc44> LjL: hmm? medibuntu is still there
[01:52] <LjL> mc44: is it? yesterday i was using it and there were *only* main/r/u/m and backports
[01:52] <jikanter> wow, the new bug report system sure is fancy.... I am a big fan
[01:53] <asherZ> ohh what is the best irc for ubunt? xchat??
[01:53] <LjL> mc44: are you looking at feisty?
[01:53] <mc44> LjL: yes
[01:53] <LjL> !best | asherZ
[01:53] <ubotu> asherZ: 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.
[01:53] <mc44> LjL: I lie
[01:53] <asherZ> :D
[01:53] <mc44> LjL: it was edgy
[01:53] <OlliW> chatzilla for example works fine too :)
[01:53] <asherZ> yes chatzilla is nicer for me but no transparency
[01:54] <asherZ> so im split between the 2 :P
[01:54] <sanityx> I'm not a huge chatzilla fan
[01:54] <LjL> mc44, right, with edgy they're all still there. but i quite believed he had most of them for edgy too
[01:54] <jikanter> asherZ: you could always try kopete
[01:54] <sanityx> It works great on windows, but chatzilla looks a bit ugly to me under linux
[01:54] <OlliW> or gaim :P
[01:54] <OlliW> sorry pidgin
[01:54] <OlliW> :P
[01:54] <jikanter> or xchat
[01:54] <sanityx> XChat ftw.
[01:54] <asherZ> jikanter: will check it out i thought kopete was a im? i have gaim that do irc aswell :o
[01:54] <OlliW> like ubotu said... lots of choice... everyone has a personal favorite :P
[01:54] <mc44> LjL: how odd. No idea, sensible though :)
[01:55] <jikanter> asherZ: yup, seems like it does it all
[01:55] <asherZ> cool
[01:55] <ward_> is it possible to automatically switch off the wallpaper and desktop effects when someone connects with vnc?
[01:55] <LjL> asherZ, the IRC clients i know for GTK are gaim, xchat, lostirc and loqui. gaim is a GNOME application, the others aren't, though there's a (reduced functionalities) xchat-gnome.
[01:55] <ubunku> i'd like to reduce hiss in an audio file, audacity has no hiss reduction. is there any other audio editing program does that?
[01:55] <aum> hi - what's the best/easiest tool for remastering the ubuntu livecd?
[01:55] <asherZ> LjL: ah thanks i will try them all :)
[01:55] <sanityx> I wonder if FreeNX will ever be in the repositories
[01:56] <LjL> mc44: hm, but let's be serious now, the repositories he selected were mostly good and sensible themselves. not giving anything aside from the official ones seems to defeat the purpose a little, IMHO
[01:56] <OlliW> ward_ wat vnc server are you using?
[01:56] <asherZ> ohhh one more thing.. how do i change the colour of my username in xchat because its grey and i have transparency enabled :p
[01:56] <ward_> i dunno, just using what came standard with #ubuntu
[01:56] <mc44> LjL: yes, you should ask him, maybe its a boog :p
[01:56] <ward_> OlliW, i dunno, just using what came standard with #ubuntu
[01:57] <sanityx> asherZ, Settings -> Preferences -> Colors maybe
[01:58] <asherZ> hmm yeah has a couple of greys in there. nothing on username just away user ill mess about with it tho :) thanks
[01:58] <sanityx> asherZ, Yeah idk. Never used transparency
[01:58] <bobstro> ward_: i recall there being settings for vnc client that you can use to control color depth and that sort of thing. have you checked those options out?
[01:59] <OlliW> ward_ not sure what ubuntu uses as standard vnc server. Did you have a look on ubuntuforums.org if somebody else may had the same question?
[02:00] <ward_> bobstro, nope i will check it out but i don't think it'll solve the compiz part
[02:00] <ward_> OlliW, nope but i will right now
[02:01] <OlliW> good luck :)
[02:01] <vbabiy> hey can any one help me with this error http://vbabiy.mine.nu:8080/bootchart.htm
[02:01] <vakosel> what is the command to install the c header files for my kernel?
[02:02] <ward_> OlliW, found it :-)     ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=421272&highlight=vnc+compiz )
[02:02] <ward_> ty
[02:02] <bobstro> ward_: i must have missed something. you're using vnc to a desktop session that has compiz enabled?
[02:02] <ward_> bobstro, correct
[02:03] <vbabiy> hey can any one help me with this error http://vbabiy.mine.nu:8080/bootchart.htm
[02:03] <ward_> bobstro, but i think i found the solution, gonna test it
[02:03] <bobstro> ward_: it's been a while since i set itup, but can't you set up vnc sessions to use entirely different x setup?
[02:04] <OlliW> vbabiy: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-ide@vger.kernel.org/msg03088.html ... seems to be some sort of bug I suppose...
[02:04] <ward_> bobstro, i'm gonna kill my ubuntu if i evne try that, i'm too noob for that :-)
[02:05] <flake> how can I tell if I have been phished? I have a question about newegg.com
[02:05] <mc44> ward_: you could just run metacity --replace when you vnc?
[02:05] <Loftii> Im wanting to install ubuntu, am i going to need to kill my winServer partition to create some space, or can ubuntu resize and do some magic to create some?
[02:05] <bobstro> ward_: i had my vnc setup to use xfce for remotes, while normal logins used kde/gnome.
[02:05] <Shenky> I'm tring to use vnc to link to a computer. But the keyboard mapping seems wrong. When I type "b", it appears "s". How to fix it @@?
[02:06] <bobstro> ward_: the xstartup script for vnc was the key iirc.
[02:06] <flake> I placed an order from firefox - went to submit order from the https://  site, does it go to a merchant account asking for some secure number or id ?
[02:06] <vbabiy> olliiw: any idea on the next kernel release?
[02:07] <flake> the merchant account was https://
[02:07] <flake> but different from newegg
[02:07] <vakosel> what is the location of the dir of c header files that match my kernel?
[02:07] <flake> i was thinking the secure id was the 3 digit code on the back of my ccard but then the text box was too large for 3 digits and it may have been secure order # now that I think of it
[02:07] <Keebus> hello all
[02:08] <flake> hi Keebus
[02:08] <vakosel> totally N~
[02:08] <variant> flake: how should we know? if it was a redirection from the newegg site then it is unlikley to be spoofed
[02:08] <Keebus> hi flake
[02:08] <flake> if you order from newegg.com alot you would know
[02:08] <Insanexx> anyone that i can pm, to ask a question on installing ubuntu onto my dell inspiron 6400 ?
[02:08] <Insanexx> anyone that i can pm, to ask a question on installing ubuntu onto my dell inspiron 6400 ?
[02:08] <flake> ok thanks variant - makes sense
[02:08] <variant> Insanexx: do not repeat your self like that
[02:09] <bobstro> Insanexx: ask here for now. i got it going on my d420 just fine.
[02:09] <flake> probably wanted a secure order number to be set up with the merchant I guess
[02:09] <flake> but newegg still processed it
[02:09] <OlliW> just in a little while and you can call Dell tech support with your questions :P
[02:09] <variant> Insanexx: please, and also, it's polite to just ask anyone in the channel and not be asking for private help..
[02:09] <variant> OlliW: hardware only
[02:09] <variant> OlliW: ubuntu support will be the same
[02:10] <variant> afaik
[02:10] <Loftii> anyone have any comments or suggestions regarding my question?
[02:10] <variant> Loftii: it can resize it
[02:10] <OlliW> yup
[02:10] <Loftii> thank you kindly sir.
[02:10] <bobstro> Loftii: i've had mixed luck myself.
[02:10] <variant> Loftii: the installer will allow you to resize it, in the same style as partition magic
[02:11] <Insanexx> ok, sorry about that, i am having this problem, where i boot ubuntu using the cd and attempts to install it, just prior to installation i got this error saying "unable to load x server( your graphic something) any idea to fix it?
[02:11] <variant> Insanexx: try with safe graphics mode
[02:11] <Insanexx> same error occured
[02:12] <jovans>  ich habe das Problem (nur bei Kubuntu) das wenn mein PC lnger an ist das er sich nicht mehr herunterfahren lsst und auf keine Tastatureingabe mehr reagiert. Aus dem grafischen Modus schafft er es noch bis "Shutting down alsa" dann geht nix mehr kann nur noch zwischen
[02:12] <OlliW> Boot and let your cd do a self check as well (just to be sure)
[02:12] <variant> Insanexx: try downloading the iso again and burning it to a new disk. if that fails then try the alternate install cd

[02:14] <variant> Insanexx: cool, fromthere type sudo -i and then type X -configure
[02:14] <Simulator> why its change Broadcom BCM4311 802.11g
[02:15] <Simulator> i use ubuntu feisty
[02:15] <kaiyilen_> hello, what's the numericle code for the permission set  -rw-r--r--
[02:15] <kaiyilen_> ?
[02:15] <jrib> !permissions > kaiyilen_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:15] <OlliW> 644 i think
[02:15] <bobstro> kaiyilen_: 0644
[02:15] <OlliW> yup
[02:15] <Simulator> Broadcom BCM4311 802.11g change 01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01)
[02:15] <kaiyilen_> thanks
[02:15] <Simulator> hey why
[02:15] <gordonjcp> kaiyilen_: each group of three letters is represented by an octal digit
[02:15] <Simulator> confius
[02:16] <bobstro> kaiyilen_: you'll want to be able to do the binary in your head!
[02:16] <kaiyilen_> i've gotta do binary just to set permissions using the numbers?
[02:16] <OlliW> no you can also use letters in some cases
[02:17] <bobstro> kaiyilen_: well, each of those octal characters is derived from the binary (where rwx are each a bit)
[02:17] <kaiyilen_> yeah..that's what i was doing but it just got...crazy
[02:17] <OlliW> http://www.zzee.com/solutions/linux-permissions.shtml
[02:17] <bobstro> kaiyilen_: not a *LOT* of binary, just to use that syntax.
[02:17] <kaiyilen_> aw
[02:17] <bobstro> kaiyilen_: the ugo +- syntax is easier
[02:17] <Simulator> hello
[02:17] <kaiyilen_> yeah..
[02:17] <bobstro> Simulator: is that an error message you're getting?
[02:17] <kaiyilen_> so i know 4 is read, 2 is write and 1 is execute...what is 0?
[02:18] <Simulator> no
[02:18] <kaiyilen_> and 6..?
[02:18] <Simulator> but hardware change
[02:18] <kaiyilen_> those arent in my book
[02:18] <bobstro> kaiyilen_: 4+2 = 6

[02:18] <Simulator> i use compaq presario 3000 Broadcom BCM4311 802.11g
[02:19] <esmirilha> hauahauaah, im from brasil
[02:19] <esmirilha> tudo bem?
[02:19] <esmirilha> :O
[02:19] <bobstro> kaiyilen_: there are three groups, for user, group and other. each is a 3 bit field, represented as that octal number.
[02:19] <Simulator> why its change 01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01)
[02:19] <stittel> Does anybody know where I can find the current state of development on the "Pidgin" package for Gutsy?
[02:19] <bobstro> Simulator: what do you mean "change"?
[02:19] <stittel> There must be something in development, but I can't find anything on Launchpad or packages.ubunutu.com.
[02:19] <Simulator> hardware name
[02:19] <asherZ> my dad sucks he likes suse and kde lool
[02:19] <Simulator> i type lspci
[02:19] <kane77> kaiyilen_, that is 3 digit binary number XXX wich stands for RWX so 000 means no read no write no execute, 001 means no read&write, but execute and so on...
[02:19] <bobstro> asherZ: he could be a CP/M fan.
[02:20] <Tom47> !pt > esmirilha
[02:20] <kaiyilen_> aw
[02:20] <kaiyilen_> okay
[02:20] <gordonjcp> ok
[02:20] <bobstro> asherZ: just be appreciative that he uses linux period.
[02:20] <gordonjcp> if I put a CD in, it automounts
[02:20] <Simulator> hey  why
[02:20] <kaiyilen_> it'll take some repetition to get that threw my head
[02:20] <Simulator> very confius
[02:20] <asherZ> bobstro: CP/M? yes L(
[02:20] <gordonjcp> but it doesn't show up in mount
[02:20] <kane77> there are only 10 types of people, those who undestand binary and those that dont
[02:20] <Simulator> when i install feisty
[02:20] <Simulator> its change
[02:20] <Pici> !enter
[02:20] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:20] <asherZ> bobstro im gunna inst kubuntu on his sys when he afk lol
[02:20] <gordonjcp> how on earth do I get at the stuff on a CD?
[02:20] <bobstro> asherZ: there may be perfectly good reasons he prefers them. you can't assume too much based on distribution.
[02:21] <gordonjcp> oh, hang on, it's mounted under /media/My\ Disc
[02:21] <gordonjcp> wtf?
[02:21] <bobstro> asherZ: what exactly do you need to do in kubuntu that he can't do under suse?
[02:21] <asherZ> bobstro: he likes it because he knows it thats all i think.. i dont like it because of sucky rpms and themes
[02:21] <kaiyilen_> thanks jrib
[02:21] <johnnybuoy> hurray for ShipIT!
[02:21] <kaiyilen_> thanks every one else
[02:21] <jrib> kaiyilen_: you don't even need to learn the numbers, chmod u=rw,g=r,o=r file   works fine
[02:22] <bobstro> asherZ: so you mean you don't like it because you don't know it, eh? :)
[02:22] <kaiyilen_> \(^_^) gonna go now
[02:22] <kaiyilen_> yeah..i saw
[02:22] <asherZ> bobstro: basically ya :[
[02:22] <jrib> kaiyilen_: k, bye
[02:22] <bobstro> asherZ: i have preferences, but i try to avoid distro pissing matches.
[02:23] <bobstro> asherZ: they've come a LONG way with package management. suse looks slick, but i'm sticking with debian/ubuntu myself.
[02:23] <compilerwriter> Enjoy johnnybuoy
[02:23] <wkrally> is there an tutorial to get sound from 2 aplications?
[02:23] <wkrally> i tried some but they didn't work
[02:23] <asherZ> bobstro: hehe yeah its all personal preference but i tried suse, open suse, slackware, pclinuxos, centos and ubunt.. and yeah debian is for me :)
[02:23] <bobstro> asherZ: you guys should make a point of learning how to do things in the other! it's cool he's into it at least.
[02:23] <johnnybuoy> thats what I'm doing
[02:24] <johnnybuoy> of course, the sticker's allready on my laptop :)
[02:24] <bobstro> asherZ: if he's using it in corporate world, suse may be their choice.
[02:24] <asherZ> bobstro: yes good idea.. i havnt used 10.2 reason i want to upgrade his tho is because hes running 10.0 atm

[02:25] <asherZ> bobstro: suse made compiz right?

[02:25] <wkrally> can some1 plx help me with my sound problem?
[02:25] <bobstro> asherZ: i know novell was involved, but not all details
[02:25] <fastly> i tried sharing a directory on the network... this computer name is displayed in the network on another windows box... but it asks for a password and doesn't accept my user login ?
[02:25] <fastly> any ideas?
[02:25] <telejedi> hallo
[02:25] <bobstro> stittel: yes, but open is more like what he'll use at work then, no?
[02:26] <tomaszx_> hello , what is better for ubuntu on AMD3000+ : xen, virtualbox, vmware or kvm for Desktop computer?
[02:26] <fastly> it prepends the computer name from which i am trying to connect
[02:26] <bobstro> asherZ: just focus on getting the two to talk and interoperate well.
[02:26] <fastly> to the username
[02:26] <telejedi> why does 'bitchx user -H irc.ubuntu.com -a' not work?
[02:26] <asherZ> bobstro~ :D
[02:26] <fastly> are the samba and user accounts linked?
[02:26] <stittel> bobstro: I'd probably prefer the SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop.
[02:26] <cyril_> hello
[02:26] <asherZ> bobstro: i have so many friends who are on xp who could benefit from ubuntu
[02:26] <Simulator> any body can help
[02:27] <cyril_> do you know how to remove TimesNewRomanPSMT
[02:27] <bobstro> stickman14: possibly. my only point was that he may have a GOOD REASON for suse over ubuntu.
[02:27] <stittel> asherZ: Ich habe so many friends who use Windows or Linux and got benefit from Mac OS X. :)
[02:27] <Simulator> i use compaq presario 3000 with Broadcom BCM4311 802.11g wireless
[02:27] <stittel> asherZ: s/got/could/
[02:27] <bobstro> stittel: so much for freedom, eh?
[02:27] <aoirthoir> bobstro, there are very good reasons for using one distro over ubuntu. I love puppy linux for instance for its strengths. Though I use ubuntu mostly.
[02:27] <aoirthoir> bobstro, so I agree wichoo
[02:27] <stittel> bobstro: Normal users don't care about freedom. And normal users don't read source code either.
[02:27] <Simulator> and now its change to 01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01)
[02:28] <asherZ> stittel: hmm :) ive never tried mac i want to though
[02:28] <Simulator> Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI
[02:28] <aoirthoir> stittel, then we need to teach them so that they do care.
[02:28] <bobstro> stittel: sure, so they happily pay jobs or gates. i don't see much of a difference myself.
[02:28] <cyril_> do you know how to remove TimesNewRomanPSMT ? and use the normal timesnewroman ?
[02:28] <asherZ> bobstro: is it me or is vista slow?
[02:28] <bobstro> stittel: just because apple is "cool" doesn't make it less evil.
[02:28] <stittel> bobstro: Mac OS X delivers the best "it just works" experience. Windows is ridiculous and Linux has still a long way to go.
[02:28] <OlliW> bobstro > the problem is not that we have to pay for the OS :P
[02:28] <jikanter> stittel : vista is slow
[02:28] <bobstro> stittel: if you like DRM sure.
[02:28] <stittel> bobstro: I am a computer-scientist, not an Open Source evangelist.
[02:29] <aoirthoir> stittel, but I think you will find more and more people are caring about freedom, even if they dont use those terms. They are tired of being forced to comply with rules of various corporations.
[02:29] <bobstro> stittel: i'm agnostic, but i don't attribute apple with anything above microsoft.
[02:29] <bobstro> stittel: it's just ironic that paying apple is "cool" (drm lock-in and all) while microsoft is "square".

[02:30] <stittel> aoirthoir: The average user will be always forced to comply with the design decision of the developers who made his software. That's not different with Ubuntu.

[02:30] <stittel> bobstro: If Windows was the best operating system around, I'd use Windows and advocate it.
[02:30] <wkrally> and i alreay tried an bunch of tutorials
[02:30] <stittel> bobstro: My main problem with Windows is, that it sucks. :)
[02:30] <Simulator> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM4311_rev_01_(ndiswrapper)?highlight=(WifiDocs%2FDevice
[02:30] <zeroda1> wkrally: what 2 apps are you trying
[02:30] <stittel> bobstro: Not that it is from Microsoft.
[02:31] <asherZ> bobstro: lol those where the days when i had me on p3 500 w/ 128mb of ram and matrox g400 card lol :D
[02:31] <aoirthoir> stittel, we can pm if you like or we can go to ##aoirthoir. Some folks are objecting to this conversation (rightfully so..its a support channel)
[02:31] <wkrally> teamspeak and enemy territory ^^
[02:31] <exs> Pidgin 2.0 final is out. can someone tell me where I can download it for linux?
[02:31] <orbin> Simulator: so you're just wondering why it's like that?
[02:31] <Simulator> i use this tutorial
[02:31] <wkrally> for gaming is my main target
[02:31] <Simulator> yes
[02:31] <stittel> aoirthoir: Alright.
[02:31] <Simulator> 01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01)
[02:31] <bobstro> stittel: i despise windows, because it doesn't work, yes. apple *does* give a good end-user experience, but i'm pleased that linux (ubuntu) is getting closer to that.
[02:31] <Simulator> why dell ?
[02:32] <Simulator> before this i use ubuntu edgy
[02:32] <aoirthoir> stittel, to pm you have to be registered and identified with services.
[02:32] <bobstro> stittel: it's annoying that many of the reasons linux *can't* "quite" get there are due to proprietary lock-in.
[02:32] <Simulator> its Broadcom BCM4311 802.11g
[02:32] <stittel> aoirthoir: the channel #aoirthoir is empty.
[02:32] <skipper> I have just upgraded to 7.04, and now only three of my 12 terminals connect.
[02:32] <Simulator> but ubuntu feisty 01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01)
[02:32] <zeroda1> wkrally: some programs have issues sharing sound. enemy territory is one
[02:32] <stittel> bobstro: are you coming to #aoirthoir too?
[02:32] <orbin> Simulator: dunno.  maybe try running update-pciids
[02:32] <bobstro> stittel: sure, briefly i guess.
[02:33] <Simulator> I use compaq presario 3000
[02:33] <wkrally> zero: so it won't work?
[02:33] <aoirthoir> stittel, its actually ##aoirthoir the command is /join ##aoirthoir blabla (blabla is the key)
[02:33] <Simulator> 2 machine like this
[02:33] <zeroda1> wkrally: ya but i dont know how it complex and involves compiling stuff
[02:33] <menik69> Hi

[02:34] <Simulator> its change again
[02:34] <portis> exs: did you try sourceforge?
[02:34] <josh__> If you can't boot from cd, you gotta get new hardware
[02:34] <Simulator> 01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01)
[02:34] <Simulator> like this
[02:35] <wkrally> som: u checked ur bios settings?
[02:35] <menik69> ubuntu studio -> when is it released ?
[02:35] <som> wkrally i have, i cant boot from cd in there and i dont have a floppy disk.

[02:35] <exs> portis:  sorry, no i made a mistake. there's some bz there....
[02:36] <wkrally> som, it is posible to boot from cd
[02:36] <orbin> Simulator: did it fix it?
[02:36] <Simulator> i dont know
[02:36] <Simulator> but itts change
[02:36] <Simulator> 01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01)
[02:36] <Simulator> BCM94311MCG
[02:37] <orbin> and it's a Broadcom 4311?  i'd say close enough. :)
[02:37] <Simulator> Broadcom BCM4311 802.11g
[02:37] <Simulator> herm
[02:37] <portis> exs: cool :)
[02:37] <som> wkrally i guess it could be possible if i had a floppy disk
[02:37] <pierc1> hey anyone in here be able to help me with beryl. it seems to be installed but it still looks like normal ubuntu and i cant seem to get any features working.
[02:38] <som> wkrally its just this computer is from like 1999 or something.
[02:38] <zeroda1> pierc1: have u run beryl-manager?
[02:38] <Simulator> hey BCM94311MCG and  BCM4311 are same ?
[02:38] <Simulator> i think different
[02:38] <jsizzle> greets all
[02:38] <pierc1> yes and it opens up but the shortcuts are there and stuff but they dont do nothing
[02:39] <som> maybe it cant read my cd..
[02:40] <pierc1> its really strange, its like its there but it doesnt actually do anything.
[02:41] <Tom47> pierc1 if you get no joy here you may get some more specific help in #ubuntu-effects

[02:43] <MenZa> Is it possible to take a bit out of an NTFS partition, convert it to ext3 and merge it with /?
[02:43] <mypapit> wtf Simulator
[02:43] <zeroda1> !wtf | mypapit
[02:43] <ubotu> mypapit: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:43] <persen_> Hi, i've read that pptpconfig is broken on edgy, so, anyone know how i can fix/overcome this problem? either by downgrading maybe or something else
[02:43] <sanity_x> MenZa, I don't think you can convert ntfs to ext3. I wish you could.
[02:43] <LjL> MenZa: no, it's not possible to convert NTFS to ext3 without backing up and restoring
[02:43] <jsizzle> MenZa: gparted should do the trick, but not on the boot vol
[02:43] <persen_> !vpn
[02:43] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[02:43] <mypapit> aaa
[02:44] <MenZa> Damnit.
[02:44] <Simulator> haha mypapit
[02:44] <MenZa> D:
[02:44] <mypapit> Simulator: hahaha bot
[02:44] <jsizzle> you could copy info to ext3 then del from ntfs and resize with gparted
[02:44] <LjL> !info convertfs > MenZa, this is the only possibility, but it's *dangerous* (and probably won't work with NTFS anyway)
[02:44] <nenko> #sevlievo
[02:45] <jsizzle> MenZa: copy ntfs data to ext3 partition and resize ntfs smaller and ext3 bigger, repeat until done. no fuss no muss
[02:45] <MenZa> jsizzle: And I'd do that how? I have plenty of free disk space on the NTFS drive
[02:46] <jsizzle> MenZa: use gparted, shrink
[02:46] <MenZa> w00t
[02:46] <MenZa> Thanks :D
[02:47] <jsizzle> MenZa: use gparted to shrink ntfs and grow the ext3 and copy the data from ntfs to ext3, then repeat the ntfs shrink and ext3 grow until ntfs is gone and only ntfs remains
[02:47] <jsizzle> MenZa: read the gparted web page for more info, it has always resized partitions for me with no problems
[02:47] <jsizzle> bbiab (breakfast time)
[02:47] <MenZa> jsizzle: thanks
[02:48] <jsizzle> MenZa: np
[02:49] <MuffY> hello, the Edgy Live CD is giving my trouble, it hangs at a ceratin point (the orange bar thing stops moving). Could it be there is a shortage of memory (the computer has 576 MB of memory) or are there other known things that stop the CD from working
[02:49] <MuffY> Or do I just have to be patient (you never know =p)
[02:49] <zeroda1> MuffY: where does it stop?
[02:49] <MuffY> oh, and i did the MD5 test (twice), both times gave 0 checksum errors
[02:49] <MenZa> Will gparted be able to re-partition my filesystem with the ntfs-3g driver?
[02:49] <Necrosco> t
[02:50] <MuffY> Well, the ubuntu logo has a orange bar beneath it and that bar just stops moving and it stays like that for some minutes
[02:50] <zeroda1> MuffY: 576 is loads of mem where does it?
[02:50] <zeroda1> MuffY: thats the usplash where on the bar does it stop
[02:50] <zeroda1> MuffY: 1/4 2/4 3/4
[02:50] <MuffY> zeroda1: sorrry, what do you mean with "where does it"
[02:50] <agresor> what webcams are supported for Ubuntu ?????
[02:51] <MuffY> the bar stops at the left
[02:51] <MuffY> at 1/4 or so
[02:51] <zeroda1> MuffY: how far up the bar does the orange go
[02:51] <MenZa> agresor: the Logitech QuickCam Messenger is plug'n play :)
[02:51] <zeroda1> MuffY: what gfx card do you have?
[02:51] <MuffY> it doesn't it's still in the bounce fase
[02:51] <MuffY> brb, maybe it's workling
[02:52] <agresor> MenZa, so i buy it plug it and it will install by itself ?
[02:53] <zeroda1> MuffY: any luck?
[02:55] <Fabier> Hey all, quick question for anyone who has a minute
[02:56] <Fabier> there is a project out there called "Wubi" which installs Ubuntu into a file on a windows install
[02:56] <Fabier> is there a project that does this but in reverse?
[02:56] <Fabier> install windows into a file on linux?
[02:56] <colo_work> is there some kind of iptables-save/restore initscript for ubuntu?
[02:56] <bobbob1016> Fabier, you can emulate windows on Linux
[02:56] <zeroda1> Fabier: there is virtualization
[02:56] <colo_work> Fabier: you know vmware and virtualbox?
[02:57] <bobbob1016> Fabier, you can use VMware or something like that
[02:57] <MenZa> agresor: mine did on Edgy
[02:57] <variant> Fabier: or kvm or qemu
[02:57] <zeroda1> !vmware | Fabier
[02:57] <ubotu> Fabier: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[02:57] <MenZa> agresor: But I don't know if you can purchase that camera anymore
[02:57] <SoulRaven> hy
[02:57] <pukeko> colo_work: why would u need that ?
[02:57] <colo_work> pukeko: well, I'd like to have my rules persistent over reboots?
[02:57] <SoulRaven> i want to install my Sound Blaster NX sound card
[02:57] <SoulRaven> on Ubuntu
[02:58] <zeroda1> SoulRaven: have you googled it?
[02:58] <SoulRaven> yes.....
[02:58] <SoulRaven> :(
[02:58] <bobbob1016> All of the sudden, I am getting 800+ pings when I do a speed test.  The only thing that I changed was the powerline adapter I was using, I'm using powerline networking.  I have other computers on the same adapter, through a switch, and the other computers have <150 pings.  Any ideas?
[02:58] <Fabier> Thank you for the responses, guys. What I'm trying to avoid is partitioning my HD, and I would like 3d acceleration in windows (gotta have my fix of FEAR.) VMWare player as far as I'm aware is still working on 3d acceleration. :-/
[02:58] <variant> Fabier: can't be done
[02:59] <bobbob1016> Fabier, nothing that would do that
[02:59] <bobbob1016> Fabier, I dual-boot, so I can play C&C3
[02:59] <Fabier> hmm, bummer
[02:59] <variant> Fabier: xen may have support for something like that somewhere down the line but it wourd require a second fully virtualised graphics card
[02:59] <Fabier> I guess I'll have to duel boot... that just bugs me
[02:59] <SoulRaven> and another question.......
[02:59] <Fabier> variant: yeah
[02:59] <variant> Fabier: or try cedega/wine
[02:59] <bobbob1016> Fabier, I use Parallels for small windows things, you might want to look into Cadega
[03:00] <Pici> Fabier: wubi is dual boot too
[03:00] <Fabier> Pici: Yes, the difference (from what I can tell) is that it installs the OS into a file on the windows partition. That can potentially save a lot of space becaise the file grows with the data stored within it.
[03:00] <dirrty> I used Lampp in windows, and have installed it in ubuntu....this seems to have some problems
[03:01] <SoulRaven> i want to distrib the ubuntu cd's un my lecture
[03:01] <pukeko> colo_work: have u tried sysv-rc-conf ? it prob don't work with modern ubunutus
[03:01] <variant> SoulRaven: go ahead
[03:01] <variant> SoulRaven: you can sell them too if you like
[03:01] <Fabier> Variant and Bobbob1016: WIne isn't quite able to play the games I was looking at playing :-/. I tried though!
[03:01] <SoulRaven> but i don't have the cd's
[03:01] <colo_work> pukeko: i don't know what you're talking about, sorry :)
[03:01] <bobbob1016> Fabier, Cadega
[03:01] <variant> SoulRaven: burn them
[03:01] <OlliW> you can download them :)
[03:01] <Tom47> !shipit
[03:01] <ubotu> shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[03:02] <bobbob1016> Fabier, it is meant to play games, but it isn't free
[03:02] <OlliW> as in free beer :)
[03:02] <variant> Fabier: you can get the code for free as it is GPL however there will be slightly less functionality than the paid client
[03:02] <SoulRaven> i use this service for my one
[03:02] <SoulRaven> but for this oficial thing.......
[03:02] <Fabier> bobbob1016: Have you used it? I looked at their site and wasn't too impressed with the public rating of their software.
[03:02] <SoulRaven> i want aprox. 30cd's
[03:02] <sgtmattbaker> hello, I installed a server on my PC with the dapper alternate installer CD.  I guess it has the default sources but when I do sudo apt-get install xchat or proftpd it can't find the packages
[03:02] <Fabier> Variant: Where at?
[03:03] <bobbob1016> Fabier, I haven't, I just dual-boot
[03:03] <MuffY> zeroda1: I'm back, and it's still not working =(
[03:03] <Fabier> bobbob1016: Ah. Oh well.
[03:03] <zeroda1> MuffY: what gfx card?
[03:03] <variant> Fabier: it is not ideal, pay for a game then pay more for the priviledge of playing it on your chosen platform. imo, if you can't make the game run under wine then just dual boot
[03:03] <OlliW> Fabier, it really depends on what games you're playing. A lot of big games are really well supported. Also have a look at their compatibility list: http://cedega.com/gamesdb/
[03:03] <dirrty> should i remove lampp?? and go thur installing apache mysql perl jeez?
[03:03] <MuffY> hmm, i don't know, something integrated, i'll check it now
[03:03] <variant> Fabier: http://cedega.com/cvs/
[03:03] <sgtmattbaker> hello, I installed a server on my PC with the dapper alternate installer CD.  I guess it has the default sources but when I do sudo apt-get install xchat or proftpd it can't find the packages.. what do I do?
[03:04] <MuffY> and the bar is still bnouncing when it freezes, it's not actually "filling" if you know what i mean
[03:04] <OlliW> sgtmattbaker: apt-get update
[03:04] <Fabier> thank you guys. I'll take another look at it.
[03:04] <pukeko> colo_work:what ubuntus are u not able to reboot with iptabs intact ?
[03:04] <sgtmattbaker> OlliW: done that
[03:04] <bobbob1016> Fabier, it might be easier to repartition, or add a second drive, then put windows on there, it will mess with your boot-loader though.  You could try to remove the Ubuntu drive, then install windows on the new drive, and plug the ubuntu drive in as the master drive, and windows as the slave, then add the windows drive to your grub config
[03:04] <OlliW> sgtmattbaker: what kinda error do you get?
[03:04] <jsizzle> sgtmattbaker: first off no need to repeat so quickly, we saw your Q the first time, second do you have your network configured on your server?
[03:04] <sgtmattbaker> OlliW: can't find package.  I know the names are correct also
[03:05] <Tom47> sgtmattbaker take a look at /etc/apt/sources.lst
[03:05] <Fabier> bobbob1016: Yeah, I'm not a fan of windows attempts to dominate the system :P
[03:05] <sgtmattbaker> yes the network is connecting
[03:05] <sgtmattbaker> ed*
[03:05] <zeroda1> MuffY: ill check your bios is properly intergrated
[03:05] <sgtmattbaker> it has the default list
[03:05] <zeroda1> *configured
[03:05] <jsizzle> sgtmattbaker: did you apt-get update?
[03:05] <Fabier> bobbob1016: Unfortunately, this is a laptop. So... removing drives is not an option.
[03:05] <sgtmattbaker> yes
[03:05] <Pici> sgtmattbaker: try searching for the packages first with either `apt-cache search packagename` or `aptitude search packagename` before you try to install
[03:06] <jsizzle> sgtmattbaker: do this without quotes as root 'apt-cache search xchat'
[03:06] <OlliW> sgtmattbaker: what url is used in your sources.list? maybe the mirror is down?
[03:06] <zeroda1> MuffY: sorry ignore the last coment
[03:06] <bobbob1016> Fabier, then try a GTParted live CD to partition a bit of space, then install windows, then rebuild grub
[03:06] <zeroda1> MuffY: check your bios is correctly configured
[03:06] <MuffY> zeroda1: it's a PCI card, and ATI card to be precise (i'm looking for the specs now)
[03:06] <bobbob1016> Fabier, or lilo, whichever you use
[03:07] <zeroda1> MuffY: have you ever addded / removed anything from your comp?
[03:07] <Fabier> bobbob1016: Grub :).
[03:07] <Mohd> I need help, I have a workspace problem?
[03:07] <dirrty> so no one knows anything about lampp?
[03:07] <Pici> !lamp
[03:07] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[03:07] <jsizzle> does feisty work with atheros wifi cards out of the box? or do I have to compile madwifi?
[03:08] <sgtmattbaker> Pici: ok thanks.. I will try that----- it just returns another $ line
[03:08] <bobbob1016> Fabier, that's your loader, the "Press esc in two seconds" to get more options
[03:08] <bobbob1016> All of the sudden, I am getting 800+ pings when I do a speed test.  The only thing that I changed was the powerline adapter I was using, I'm using powerline networking.  I have other computers on the same adapter, through a switch, and the other computers have <150 pings.  Any ideas?
[03:08] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: u using dhcp?
[03:08] <zeroflag> is it possible to "upgrade" debian to ubuntu?
[03:08] <dirrty> ok i'll come back later
[03:08] <zeroda1> zeroflag: no
[03:08] <zeroflag> :[
[03:08] <MuffY> zeroda1: no, i put the CD in and let it boot, and did nothing at all
[03:08] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, no, static
[03:09] <Mohd> When i switch to a workspace everything disappears, even the panels. Any one knows the reason or how to fix it?
[03:09] <Mohd> I got fiesty
[03:09] <zeroda1> MuffY: ok
[03:09] <zeroflag> zeroda1: any specific reason?
[03:09] <zeroda1> MuffY: hmmm
[03:09] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, it's been fine until I plugged in the new powerline adapter, and all my other PC's behind the adapter get good ping
[03:09] <bigmoe> im using feisty now but i couldnt not get the modem woriking it is a soft winmodem?? could anyone help me??
[03:09] <savetheWorld> zeroda1: in theory, yes. In reality - you would have to be a truly advanced and expert system hacker and it would be a royal conflutin' pain in the butt.
[03:09] <Mohd> It suddenly hapened.
[03:09] <zeroda1> zeroflag: compiled the kernel differently
[03:09] <zeroda1> zeroflag: so basically what savetheWorld
[03:10] <MuffY> oh, and if I press F4 in the menu of the CD, it won't do anything (well, it shows a little gray block with "VGA" written in it, but no options to change the screen resolution/colour depth)
[03:10] <zeroda1> said
[03:10] <MoL3> !modem
[03:10] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: try pinging your router, what's the response time to your router?

[03:11] <MuffY> zeroda1: =D patiently waiting
[03:11] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, lowest is 2.5ms
[03:12] <Mohd> They used to work before but after i installed AMSN and XMMS they stopped? Or maybe after i changed "Log in screen" option?
[03:12] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, average is about 3
[03:12] <Pici> nubbe: tools>options and then the tabs tab
[03:12] <Kubuntu> Can you tell me where my task bar is?
[03:12] <zeroda1> MuffY: in your bios can you select what gfx card?
[03:12] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: what's the average for one of your powerline clients that isn't having a problem? is it the same?
[03:12] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, checking now, one second
[03:13] <Mohd> I need help, when i switch to a workspace, the screen becomes blank, all i see is my background all other subjects or panel are vanished, and i cant do anything. And these workspaces are important.
[03:13] <bobbob1016> about the same, average is about 2.8ms
[03:13] <zeroda1> Mohd: you usin beryl?
[03:13] <jsizzle> Mohd: are u using compiz or beryl?
[03:13] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, about the same, average is about 2.8ms
[03:13] <sgtmattbaker> Mohd: have you tried a gdm restart?
[03:13] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: ok, ping your dns server from both and compare response times
[03:14] <MuffY> zeroda1: I'm looking for it (computer is dowstairs, so i have to run between them, my responses might be a little slow)
[03:14] <rbanffy> Is this the right place to ask for help with my wireless interface (under Feisty)?
[03:14] <zeroda1> MuffY: np
[03:15] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, DNS is the router
[03:15] <orbin> Mohd: is it reoccurring or did it just happen?
[03:15] <rbanffy> For later, I will have a question about multi-heading my 415GMA notebook
[03:15] <nubbe> Pici, strangest thing, I had done that, and thought I should disable and then enable only in tabs again and ten tell u it isn't that, but now it works.... thanks   :)
[03:15] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, one sec, let me see what it is on the other computers, didn't even think of that
[03:16] <d> PanTeTo
[03:16] <MuffY> zeroda1: ah, i found it. It seems this is an ancioent one: http://cgi.ebay.ca/DIAMOND-ST-3D-3000-4mb-PCI-GRAPHICS-CARD_W0QQitemZ8812391871QQihZ005QQcategoryZ44986QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem
[03:16] <MuffY> it has 4 MB of memory >_>
[03:16] <Mohd> Orbin: Its just happening..
[03:16] <Mohd> Zerodal: I dont know what a beryl, I am a n00b in Linux.
[03:17] <sgtmattbaker> !Mohd | beryl
[03:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mohd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:17] <fxfitz> Last night I got Compiz working on Feisty. Anyway, I noticed that now when I close the laptop lid my screen goes blank, but does not turn off. It used to turn off. Can I fix that some how?
[03:17] <sanity_x> Anybody know how I can mount a bin/cue file in linux. ala daemontools
[03:17] <sgtmattbaker> !Mohd beryl
[03:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mohd beryl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:17] <Mortuis> Does Ubuntu use inetd.con or xinetd?
[03:17] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, should I have the DNS server manual, if it is just the router?  I'm not sure since I have a static IP
[03:17] <MuffY> sgtmattbaker: don't forget the pipe! =p
[03:17] <MoL3> rbanffy: ask away
[03:17] <orbin> Mohd: did you lose your desktop icons too?
[03:17] <reb0rn> can anyone recomend me file manager like total commander for ubuntu 7.04?
[03:17] <Mohd> Orbin: Everything..
[03:18] <exs> where do i find " GTK+ 2.0 development headers" in synaptic? Thanks
[03:18] <Mortuis> Let me clean that up: Does Ubuntu use inetd or xinetd?
[03:18] <MoL3> sanity_x: kiso may be what you need.
[03:18] <Mohd> Orbin: I just see the desktop wallpaper thats all. Nothing more.
[03:18] <Kubuntu> !beryl
[03:18] <sanity_x> MoL3, maybe
[03:18] <sgtmattbaker> dangit
[03:18] <zeroda1> MuffY: wow thats old unfortunatly ati support (from ati) is super rubbish. and the open drivers arnt quite there yet
[03:18] <orbin> Mohd: tried ctrl+alt+left/right arrow to go back?
[03:18] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:18] <MuffY> zeroda1: so in other words, it's not going to happen with that graphics card?
[03:18] <sanity_x> MoL3, No I want to actually mount the image. Not burn it or extract it.
[03:18] <zeroda1> MuffY: i recommend you go buy a cheap nvidia and then linux will work (in theory0
[03:18] <Kubuntu> I can't change the window manager in Beryl, how do I do it?
[03:18] <sanity_x> MoL3, i.e. I need a virtual cdrom drive.
[03:19] <zeroda1> MuffY: yeah
[03:19] <Mohd> Orbin: It doesen't work, it just get sticks.
[03:19] <Mohd> Stuck*
[03:19] <MoL3> reb0rn: gnome commander
[03:19] <MuffY> zeroda1: k, thank you, will search for old video cards in "the heap"
[03:19] <MuffY> i love my room =p
[03:19] <orbin> Mohd: does alt+f2 bring up anything?
[03:19] <zeroda1> MuffY: good luck
[03:19] <bokey> MuffY, so do I. anything new ?
[03:19] <MoL3> sanity_x: that's more tricky - involves some kernel module hackery, but can be done, i believe
[03:20] <sanity_x> MoL3, cdemu
[03:20] <fxfitz> Can anyone help me make it so when I close my laptop lid the screen turns off to save battery? I only get 1 hour battery life on ubuntu.
[03:20] <sanity_x> MoL3, its not in the repositories though.
[03:20] <orbin> !mountiso > sanity_x (read pm from ubotu.  that maybe?)
[03:20] <sanity_x> orbin, that only works for iso images.
[03:21] <kuhnel> can anyone tell me the command for setting up xserver?
[03:21] <zeroda1> kuhnel: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:21] <kuhnel> thanks
[03:21] <Mohd_> Orbin: Yes it works, I am currently inside my empty workspace, i did Shift+F2 to bring IIRC.
[03:21] <MoL3> sanity_x: I'm pretty sure there's a howto on the forums for cdemu
[03:22] <Mohd_> Its seems nothing working but shift+F2.
[03:22] <MuffY> bokey: hmm, what?
[03:22] <orbin> Mohd: try running: killall gnome-panel
[03:22] <reb0rn> gnome commander looks fine :))
[03:22] <orbin> Mohd: alt+f2 you mean?
[03:22] <Mohd_> Yeah Alt+f2
[03:22] <MuffY> well, i'll be gone now =0
[03:22] <bokey> MuffY, ;)
[03:22] <MuffY> zeroda1: thanks for the help ^_^
[03:23] <MuffY> bye all <3
[03:23] <Mohd_> kill all gnome panel?
[03:23] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, I removed the manual DNS, and the page barely loads, it is all text, as I figured from removing the DNS, but after adding it I still get 800+ ping
[03:23] <Mohd_> Are you sure its okay to do so?
[03:23] <MoL3> reb0rn: you're welcome
[03:23] <orbin> Mohd: killall gnome-panel ... it'll restart the panels.  though they don't seem to be running in the first place...
[03:24] <Mohd_> Orbin: It worked!
[03:24] <orbin> Mohd: cool.  save your work :)
[03:24] <Mohd> Orbin: but the panels appeared on one of the workspaces XD
[03:24] <Mohd> orbin: not the others XD
[03:25] <orbin> Mohd: *shrug* can you get to the important workspace at least?
[03:25] <jfro> how do i configure networking in ubuntu-server if i skipped it in install, i can manually edit interfaces but that's the extent of my knowledge, not sure how to make it always startup etc.
[03:25] <sgray> can anyone help me?
[03:25] <sgray> i am trying to setup mythtv
[03:25] <agresor> is there just gnome & kde.. ? Is there any Verry cool desktop graphic ?
[03:25] <Mohd> Orbin: Yeah it works, but do you know the reason why the panels aren't going to the other workspaces?
[03:25] <sgray> i got most of it installed but now i am lost
[03:26] <pukeko> colo_work: did u figure it out ?
[03:26] <Mohd> Orbin: No, its fixed.
[03:26] <orbin> Mohd: no.  bug maybe.  can you remember what you were doing when it happened?
[03:26] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: do you have more than 1 network card?
[03:26] <Mohd> Orbin: Its a bug.
[03:26] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, no
[03:26] <Mohd> Orbin: Thanks alot Orbin.
[03:26] <orbin> Mohd: fixed itself? :)
[03:26] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, just the one and a modem, which has never been used
[03:27] <orbin> Mohd: that's ok.
[03:27] <Mohd> Orbin: Yep, it fixed it self.
[03:27] <bulmer> jfro is it working ?
[03:27] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: so 'ifconfig -a' just shows the one net card right?
[03:27] <sgray> i need help setting up mythtv
[03:27] <agresor> is there just gnome & kde.. ? Is there any Verry cool desktop graphic ?
[03:27] <jfro> bulmer: yeah i can manually start networking , i edited interfaces to have it do dhcp for eth0
[03:27] <jfro> bulmer: no clue hwo to make it always start on startup...
[03:27] <jfro> via /etc/init.d/networking
[03:28] <Quamis> Hi.. a bit of a problem
[03:28] <bulmer> jfro: on that interfaces file, i believe you can tell it to start auto
[03:28] <sgray> does anyone know a good card that works with myth tv
[03:28] <Quamis> just got ubuntu and cannot use wireless lan
[03:28] <jfro> hmm
[03:28] <orbin> agresor: few others.  try xfce and fluxbox at least once in your linux life. :)
[03:28] <Quamis> acer 3023
[03:28] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, it shows eth0, lo, and vnic0.  Not sure what a virtual nic would be doing there, I do have parallels though, I didn't see vnic on edgy, maybe parallels did it for feisty
[03:28] <jsizzle> Quamis: what chipset wireless card?
[03:29] <jfro> bulmer: oh, haha, why didn't i see that :) thanks
[03:29] <pierre1987> hi
[03:29] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: your running feisty through parallels?
[03:29] <Quamis> dunno..
[03:29] <jfro> bulmer: worked, thanks again! i'm good to go
[03:29] <Quamis> how can I see it in ubuntu?
[03:29] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, no, I run feisty, and sometimes XP in parallels
[03:29] <agresor> orbin,  thanks :D
[03:29] <jsizzle> Quamis: what other OS you have installed winblows?
[03:29] <agresor> orbin,  so what of this is the best ? :D
[03:29] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, feisty is the host, XP is the guest
[03:30] <Quamis> just ubuntu
[03:30] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: try ifdown vnic, see if that helps
[03:30] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, ifdown: interface vnic0 not configured
[03:31] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: ok, well then.. lets try traceroute, see where your slowdown is
[03:31] <Quamis> thanks, bye
[03:31] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, ok
[03:31] <c_> PanTeTo
[03:32] <orbin> agresor: i actually prefer gnome.  there are a heap of "what's your favourite" polls around.  google.  we shouldn't get offtopic here. :)
[03:32] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, traceroute to router gave me this "traceroute to 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets              1  192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1)  2.737 ms  2.890 ms  2.479 ms

[03:36] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:36] <pierre1987> I'm just wondering if one of you could help me : I have an english install of feisty, but I would need to have a french help file (several users use the computer). I have installed the package "manpages-fr" but I don't know how to read it properly...
[03:37] <pierre1987> (i feel a bit stupid)

[03:47] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, traceroute my Ubuntu from my mini?
[03:47] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: no, on ubuntu box do a 'route' as root
[03:48] <persen_> pukeko: huh? my quesition is, maybe i can upgrade to a later version of ubuntu or is edgy the latest?
[03:48] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, is sudo ok, or should I su-
[03:48] <jsizzle> persen_ : feisty is the latest

[03:50] <persen_> pukeko: sure, thats fine too.

[03:51] <BoostedSS> how do I tell if -bigmem switch is turned on in ubuntu?

[04:03] <bobbob1016> triex, right click the gnome panel, the bars on the top or bottom, in a blank space, and click Add To Panel
[04:03] <triex> bobbob1016, it's actually not red for me
[04:03] <bobbob1016> triex, it might be another color
[04:04] <triex> bobbob1016, alright, add what?
[04:04] <bobbob1016> triex, then in the Add to panel window, go click "CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor" then click Add
[04:05] <triex> bobbob1016, nice
[04:05] <bobbob1016> triex, if it says "This processor can't be scaled" then it can't be scaled
[04:05] <triex> bobbob1016, it doesn't
[04:05] <U-R> Pici have you seen the message above?
[04:05] <triex> bobbob1016, just shows my processor is changing
[04:05] <bobbob1016> triex, if it doesn't say "This processor can't be scaled" then click the applet, and you can select different speeds
[04:05] <bobbob1016> triex, that means it is scaling already
[04:06] <Pici> U-R: Sorry, I'm not familiar with that error, keep asking, perhaps someoene else can helpp.
[04:06] <triex> bobbob1016, so how do i manually choose speeds?
[04:06] <U-R> ok, but thanks pici :)
[04:06] <bobbob1016> triex, if you click it, or right click it, I'm not sure which, I think you can play with the speeds, or power options
[04:06] <bobbob1016> triex, not sure though
[04:07] <triex> bobbob1016, it won't seem to let me change the settings
[04:07] <triex> bobbob1016, only see what my battery is doing
[04:07] <triex> bobbob1016, i mean my processor
[04:07] <bobbob1016> triex, not sure
[04:08] <mat1980> triex, there are 2 applets, one for monitoring the battery and one for control the cpu speed.
[04:08] <Yggdrasil> Hello, can somone tell me if there is an application that can be used to make business cards ?
[04:08] <ward_> GIMP
[04:09] <dimebar> Yggdrasil: I did mine in the Gimp
[04:09] <Yggdrasil> interesting
[04:09] <Yggdrasil> i see something called glabels
[04:09] <ward_> Yggdrasil, Gimp is in your menu
[04:09] <Yggdrasil> yea i knw what gimp is
[04:09] <dustin> when i put a dvd in my dvd drive a message pops up on the screen saying unsupported file type well i fixed that problem but now i can't eject it and I have even tried to do it manually through a terminal ad it said failed device is busy
[04:10] <dimebar> Yggdrasil: I think Yggdrasil is more aimed at if you want to print them yourself
[04:10] <ward_> dimebar, still Gimp :p
[04:10] <jikanter> dustin: try sudo umount
[04:10] <Yggdrasil> makes perfect sence
[04:10] <dimebar> lol sorry i made no sense
[04:10] <dimebar> Yggdrasil: I think gLabels is more aimed at if you want to print them yourself
[04:10] <Yggdrasil> uh yea, thats what im trying to do
[04:11] <Yggdrasil> i guesse i should have said make , and print
[04:11] <SlimeyPete> dustin: type "lsof /media/cdrom" and "lsof /media/cdrom0" and check that nothing is listed
[04:11] <CheshireViking_> Yggdrasil, do you have a package called "glabels" in synaptic, thats supposed to be for creating your own business cards - http://glabels.sourceforge.net/
[04:11] <Yggdrasil> oh god
[04:11] <Yggdrasil> thanks
[04:11] <triex> mat1980, i think my laptop may not be supported
[04:11] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, not sure if you're back, I did a traceroute on my PC, that is getting normal speeds, and it has more than 4 routes, not sure if that is normal for XP though
[04:11] <ward_> u can probably use both
[04:11] <mat1980> triex, go to directory /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0 and tell what is in there
[04:12] <ward_> gimp to design, and gLabels to print
[04:12] <OlliW> or Inkscape to design it
[04:12] <CheshireViking_> Yggdrasil, i've not used it, so don't what its like though
[04:12] <Yggdrasil> im using it right now
[04:12] <Yggdrasil> viking scroll up please
[04:13] <CheshireViking_> Yggdrasil, sorry, hadn't seen that part of your message
[04:13] <Yggdrasil> yar
[04:13] <Yggdrasil> quite allright,
[04:13] <triex> mat1980, folders: cpufreq and topology + crash notes
[04:13] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: what about trying dhcp temporarily see if that solves the prob
[04:13] <Yggdrasil> im using it now and its actualy decent, has all the avery labels listed
[04:14] <flubber> I accidentally moved a file to a directory that doesn't existed where is it now?
[04:14] <marcin> elloo
[04:14] <mat1980> triex: go into cpufreq and list what there is in, please
[04:14] <marcin> siemano
[04:14] <Yggdrasil> hahh  can make bar codes with it !!!
[04:14] <oldude67> am adding a second hard drive to my computer, am going to install unix on half and was going to install debian on the other, but with me already running feisty, would it be worth it?
[04:14] <marcin> jak leci
[04:14] <jmspeex> Anyone here can help with the strange touchpad behaviour that happens when I dock/undock my laptop?
[04:15] <Noodlesgc> is it possible for me to apply write access to my HD so i can just drag and drop files?
[04:15] <jmspeex> Whenever I dock/undock, the mouse goes at twice the speed and tapping stops working.
[04:15] <SlimeyPete> Noodlesgc: what filesystem? If it's an NTFS (Windows) drive then you need to install ntfs-3g
[04:15] <jmspeex> If I remove psmouse and then put it back, it works but only in exps mode, not in synaptics mode.
[04:15] <Noodlesgc> no, not ntfs
[04:16] <carrasco> Good morning, someone know how to install blueremote on feisty fawn?? for example, some repository????
[04:17] <flubber> can some one help me? I have moved a file to a directory that does not existed and i can find it now.
[04:17] <triex> mat1980, a lot of things, folders: ondemand and stats, then affected_cpus, cpuinfo_cur_freq (there's an X in the corner), cpuinfo_max_freq, cpuinfo_min_freq, scaling_available_frequencies, scaling_available_governors, scaling_cur_freq, scaling_driver, scaling_governor, scaling_max_freq, and scaling_min_freq
[04:17] <triex> mat1980, quite an exhaustive list
[04:17] <dustin> does anyone know what a .daa file extension is I downloaded something with that file extension the other day and I am trying to figure it out
[04:18] <pukeko> flubber:  : )
[04:18] <mat1980> triex thanks, sorry but I'm working on a desktop, and my laptop is at home :) well... go on...
[04:18] <gonnaeatthat> anyone know why a usb hard drive would not sync up when connected?
[04:18] <gonnaeatthat> something i need to turn on?
[04:18] <CheshireViking_> dustin, http://filext.com/file-extension/DAA
[04:18] <Noodlesgc> dustin, its like an iso
[04:18] <mat1980> triex give me what is the content of scaling_available_frequencies
[04:18] <sn0> dustin http://filext.com/file-extension/DAA
[04:18] <orbin> flubber: how did you move it?  if you used mv, that would have just renamed it
[04:19] <Nanu> guys i'm know with this IRC chat,, tell me where is the rooms (channels) of argueing
[04:19] <triex> mat1980, says it could not open it
[04:19] <orbin> bah, fine then.
[04:19] <dustin> how do i burn that to a bootable cd
[04:19] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, same thing
[04:19] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, same ping and speeds
[04:19] <LeeQ> hello, I have a problem with mplayer
[04:20] <jsizzle> bobbob1016: try swapping powerline adapters, see if that makes a diff
[04:20] <sipior> Nanu: arguements? this is abuse! arguments is down the hall, 15 C
[04:20] <sn0> dustin i guess you need poweriso to do it
[04:20] <LeeQ> The video window can not be be transparent
[04:20] <sn0> as its a proprietary file
[04:21] <mat1980> triex open a terminal and give the command     cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
[04:21] <felix_> maybe someone can help, I've been looking for a winamp like alternative to rhythmbox, I've got audacious and xmms installed at the moment  but in both of these I can't find a media library window like winamp has, any suggestions?
[04:21] <sn0> according to poweriso.com its free for linux and you can convert it to a bin or iso to burn
[04:21] <gonnaeatthat> anyone help with an external usb hard drive? why it wouldnt recognize?
[04:21] <CheshireViking_> dustin, or "acetoneISO", not sure if it's free or not though
[04:21] <erUSUL> felix_: bmp ??
[04:21] <hrik001> how do i make a shared folder from a windoze computer available in Xubuntu ?
[04:21] <mat1980> triex, the command is without new lines, sorry
[04:21] <carrasco> gonnaeatthat, well, did you edit /etc/fstab?
[04:21] <triex> mat1980, how do i open a terminal?
[04:21] <orbin> felix_: enable the playlist
[04:21] <gonnaeatthat> no
[04:22] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, I got the same speeds, then I timed out I think, it said "Changing Configuration" or something
[04:22] <mat1980> triex, application->accessories->console
[04:22] <sipior> hrik001: install samba
[04:22] <gonnaeatthat> carrasco: what should i edit?
[04:22] <felix_> orbin: usually the playlist has fewer or select songs than are in the library
[04:22] <hrik001> sipior ok i will thanks
[04:22] <carrasco> gonnaeatthat, paste your /etc/fstab
[04:23] <pirx> hey! does someone know how to reset the nfsd state info? i.e. the info that i get from "showmount nfs.server.com" ?
[04:23] <gonnaeatthat> lol i dont even have one
[04:23] <LeeQ> hello, I have a problem with my mplay. When I enable destop effects. The video window can not be set to tranparency, but other applications can. Anyone has encountered this problem?
[04:23] <Kubuntu> Does beryl make Counter Strike Source lagg?
[04:23] <piercy> ok, im desperate for some wireless help however ndiswrapper channel doesnt seem to be helping. anyone in here be able to help me install usr 5417a wireless pci or suggest another room which can?
[04:24] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, it could, and probably does, but not network lagging, it would probably make your PC itself lag
[04:24] <carrasco> gonnaeatthat, do you want only mount your extern HD?
[04:24] <heze> hi all, i got a tiny problem with feisty. pretty much default install. i've got two network adapters, one connected to private lan via dhcp, the other public network with static ip and route. now the dhcp pushes a route too and i end up having two default routes and packets don't get routed to/from internet at all. how should i fix this?
[04:24] <triex> matt1980, no such file
[04:24] <triex> mat1980, no such file
[04:24] <cara> Hi all
[04:24] <gonnaeatthat> yeah
[04:24] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, it would probably make almost any game lag
[04:24] <Kubuntu> Ho do I quit beryl?
[04:24] <felix_> erUSUL: does bmp have a library? I got audacious which is from BMP but I don't think it supports a library. The other alternative is a playlist window for rhythmbox that allows sorting by path and filename which is very handy
[04:24] <gonnaeatthat> but would like to connect and disconnect when i need to without dealing with terminal everytime
[04:24] <gonnaeatthat> not sure if there is a real solution yet or not
[04:24] <cara> when I try to force ffmpeg to use the aac codec it tells me unknown codec 'aac' yet I have both faad and faac installed
[04:24] <orbin> felix_: well xmms etc are basically winamp classic.  tried other alternative players like listen or banshee?
[04:24] <cara> Am I missing something else?
[04:24] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, see it on the bottom right?  the beryl-manager?  right click it, and click "Quit"
[04:25] <dustin> is there a progam that runs in ubuntu that will support burning that to a bootable cd that .daa file
[04:25] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, actually wait a second
[04:25] <carrasco> gonnaeatthat, speak for me please, ok. lets go: what type partition of the HD?
[04:25] <felix_> orbin: I've been trying listen
[04:25] <orbin> felix_: or amarok
[04:25] <ward_> some opengl apps make my screen go black, except for my mouse, how can i fix this?
[04:25] <gonnaeatthat> it will more than likely be ntfs
[04:25] <Kubuntu> The icon dissapeared, but beryl is still there
[04:25] <ward_> i can do ctrl-alt-F1, that still works
[04:25] <gonnaeatthat> it contains windows related files
[04:25] <jevangelo> how do you get sony vaio function keys working in 7.04
[04:25] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, what comes to mind when I say "XGL" do you know what that is, or use it?
[04:25] <gonnaeatthat> western digital my book 500gig
[04:25] <gonnaeatthat> carrasco: western digital my book 500gig
[04:25] <felix_> orbin: i suspect amarok will solve all my problems but the hefty download size of 46mb on ubuntu is delaying me
[04:26] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, yeah, I tried getting you before you did that
[04:26] <Kubuntu> haven't heard of it
[04:26] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, open a terminal, and type "beryl-manager"
[04:26] <Kubuntu> it is beryl-manager to start it
[04:26] <Noodlesgc> is it possible for me to apply write access to my HD so i can just drag and drop files?
[04:26] <gonnaeatthat> carrasco: should i load the package for storage device manager?
[04:26] <cara> hmm looks like Ihave to build it from source
[04:26] <cara> bbl
[04:26] <Kubuntu> Yes
[04:26] <iNQUiETO> http://www.fayerwayer.com/up/2007/04/bill_gates_ubuntu_mini.jpg <--- LOL
[04:27] <felix_> orbin: does amarok work on gnome?
[04:27] <dustin> is there a program like poweriso for ubuntu
[04:27] <gonnaeatthat> yeah dustin
[04:27] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, then right click the beryl icon in the bottom right, and do "Select Window Manager" and read me what it says there, I'm not that familiar with Kubuntu
[04:27] <LeeQ> how to use vpn in fvwm?
[04:27] <gonnaeatthat> go to add/remove and look up burning
[04:27] <gonnaeatthat> there was one on there yesterday
[04:27] <dustin> where do i get it and what is the name of it
[04:27] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, are you using Kubuntu or Ubuntu?
[04:27] <gonnaeatthat> you just want to mount an image?
[04:28] <orbin> felix_: yes, apt will grab the required kde libs.  just as gnome apps can work in kde or xfce for that matter.
[04:28] <sipior> heze: in your dhclient.conf, remove the "routers" entry from the request stanza
[04:28] <heze> sipior, ahh, clever! thanks!
[04:28] <felix_> orbin: thanks, I'll try that.
[04:28] <orbin> felix_: how are you finding listen?  i quite like it but keep going back to just plain bmp.  (audacious seems sluggish on my pc)
[04:28] <ward_> some opengl apps make my screen go black, except for my mouse, how can i fix this?
[04:29] <ward_> without rebooting every time
[04:29] <jevangelo> how do you get sony vaio function keys working in 7.04
[04:29] <gonnaeatthat> carrasco:  i found my fstab it had moved
[04:29] <jevangelo> are their modules that you load to get them to work?
[04:29] <h3nchm3n81> hey all
[04:29] <felix_> orbin: I didn't use listen more than a few hours after I couldn't find a library
[04:29] <bobbob1016> Kubuntu, also, you should join the #ubuntu-effects channel for beryl/compiz related stuff
[04:29] <dustin> what is the name of a program like poweriso for ubuntu
[04:29] <gnudles>  ?
[04:29] <sipior> ward_: which apps? and is this a default install of feisty?
[04:30] <bobbob1016> jsizzle, any ideas?
[04:30] <Pici> dustin: what does poweriso do?
[04:30] <h3nchm3n81> has anyone else had any issues with default LAMP install on the 7.04 server disk?
[04:30] <carrasco> gonnaeatthat, moved?
[04:30] <orbin> felix_: couldn't find?  don't you just set it in prefs?
[04:30] <carrasco> gonnaeatthat, type 'whereis fstab'
[04:31] <dustin> will k3b work
[04:31] <hrik001> how do i start samba to see a shared folder on a windows machine ? thanks
[04:31] <felix_> orbin: um, what, I looked but didn't see the option. Let me check again real quick :P
[04:31] <explicitlyambigu> hello -- i was wondering if anyone had any experience installing 'surf' - a tool for visualising algebraic geometry......i think I am missing some libraries, but i can't seem to narrow down which one :-(
[04:31] <orbin> felix_: music > prefs > library tab?
[04:32] <ward_> sipior, yes a default install, some screensavers for instance
[04:32] <sipior> ward_: and what sort of video card do you have?
[04:32] <carrasco> gonnaeatthat, are you there?
[04:32] <felix_> orbin: oh yeah i did that but I'd really prefer something that brings up a seperate library window that has easy search of the whole library and playlist selection.
[04:32] <ward_> sipior, nvidia but the drivers are ok, and opengl is ok too
[04:33] <sipior> well, obviously not too okay :)
[04:33] <zeroda1> ward_: same
[04:33] <MrKeuner> hi, will pidgin 2.0 be in feisty repository or will it only be in ubuntu+1?
[04:33] <sn0> explicitlyambigu something like k3dsurf ?
[04:33] <h3nchm3n81> has anyone else had any issues with default LAMP install on the 7.04 server disk?
[04:33] <sipior> ward_: this is the proprietary nvidia driver?
[04:34] <sipior> ward_: nvidia-glx i think it's called
[04:34] <scott_w_> why does installing the nvidia driver using the GUI demand a system restart?
[04:34] <sipior> h3nchm3n81: no. what sort of issues are you having?
[04:34] <ward_> sipior, yes, nvidia-glx-new
[04:34] <felix_> orbin: thanks for the advice, I've got to go.
[04:34] <h3nchm3n81> when i select the LAMP install AMP do not install
[04:34] <sipior> ward_: what sort of nvidia card? are you sure it's supported by -new? maybe try another?
[04:34] <orbin> felix_: sure, bye.
[04:34] <sn0> scott_w_ it doesn't technically, as long as the driver module is modprobe'd (which is done on startup)
[04:35] <sipior> h3nchm3n81: the lamp install in synaptic, or?
[04:35] <ward_> sipior: ubuntu detected that i should install the -new driver so i'm pretty sure its the right one
[04:35] <scott_w_> sn0: yes, i'm aware of this, but still i had a little icon asking me to restart the computer
[04:35] <h3nchm3n81> sorry, just installing 7.04 server
[04:35] <h3nchm3n81> when i select the LAMP install option, apache, mysql & php are not installed
[04:35] <sipior> ward_: nevertheless, trying another may resolve your troubles, and it's easy to go back anyway, if it doesn't work
[04:36] <explicitlyambigu> sn0:yes , very similar -- surf's homepage is http://surf.sourceforge.net/index.shtml
[04:36] <sipior> h3nchm3n81: and if you try to install them individually, they install correctly?
[04:36] <h3nchm3n81> seem to
[04:36] <scott_w_> i'm not trying to be a **** or anything, but that behaviour is very widows-like
[04:37] <sn0> explicitlyambigu do you have a pastebin of the error? maybe it explains what lib/dev package is missing
[04:37] <sipior> h3nchm3n81: sounds like a bug, maybe check and see if anyone else has reported it, and file a report if not
[04:37] <h3nchm3n81> sipior: ty
[04:37] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: i am what's a pastebin??
[04:37] <ward_> sipior, it was HELL to get this working and i'm pretty sure i will screw up if i take the not -new one
[04:37] <mcsd> does anyone know of a video capture program to record my desktop in avi format?
[04:37] <sn0> !pastebin explicitlyambigu
[04:37] <zeroda1> ward_ what model gfx card?
[04:37] <bobbob1016> scott_w_, it doesn't start a count-down saying "I'm going to restart the computer if you don't, in 5 minutes, unless you click this"
[04:37] <bobbob1016> scott_w_, it doesn't pop over anything either
[04:38] <ward_> zerodal: mx420 go
[04:38] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: oops i meant....what's a pastebin
[04:38] <sn0> in windows when the critical updates are installed it actually forces a reboot eventually :) thats annoying
[04:38] <sn0> !pastebin
[04:38] <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)
[04:38] <dorka> hello
[04:38] <sipior> ward_: okay, i cannot help you further
[04:38] <scott_w_> bobbob1016: yah, but it implies that installing nvidia drivers require a reboot, which is plainly not true
[04:38] <kevil99> hello all
[04:38] <explicitlyambigu> thanks!
[04:38] <scott_w_> hell, i Ctrl-Alt-Backspaced and it was still there
[04:38] <ward_> sipior: np, its just i've screwed up before by doing this, so i'm not risking it, you got to understand
[04:39] <zeroda1> ward_: i may be being a retard and its late at nite but it may possibly be the legacy drivers but i very well may be wrong
[04:39] <ward_> zerodal: nope but its very close lol
[04:39] <Daverocks> scott_w_: ubuntu is aimed at mass desktop users who are used to restarting, and it's not _as_ big an issue as in windows, but yes there are other distros which are better at not "needing" to restart
[04:39] <sn0> scott_w_ you get a similar notification when installing a newer kernel-imagge
[04:39] <sn0> image*
[04:39] <bobbob1016> scott_w_, it doesn't require a reboot if you know how to do it without a reboot, it is easier for people who don't know much linux if it reboots
[04:39] <ward_> zerodal: i think its one of the very first cards supported by the new one
[04:40] <scott_w_> sn0: but installing a new kernel image DOES require a restart to use the new kernel
[04:40] <scott_w_> nvidia drivers don't
[04:40] <ward_> zerodal: compiz works perfect
[04:40] <jevangelo> is there any way to get sony vaio specific function keys to work?
[04:40] <sn0> indeed, but many users wont know this unfortunately
[04:40] <mat1980> jevangelo, open synaptic and look for sony
[04:40] <Daverocks> sn0: i'd say it's kind of a bug
[04:40] <zeroda1> ward_: i dunno i hav a similar problem with the 5500FX,i cant run some screensavers  (openGL) but it dosnt crash
[04:40] <bobbob1016> jevangelo, try playing with System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts
[04:41] <scott_w_> sn0: i know, but finishing the install shouldn't restart the computer, just X
[04:41] <kevil99> why cant i get rizon server here in xchat?
[04:41] <KronT> .irc-hispano.org
[04:41] <scott_w_> hell, just call it a soft reset if you have to tell them anything
[04:41] <Daverocks> scott_w_: yep
[04:41] <sn0> scott_w_ maybe there could be something like 'driver installed, click here to load driver now/ restart X and not whole system" option :)
[04:41] <scott_w_> 3 seconds and you're back
[04:41] <scott_w_> sn0: just what i was thinking
[04:41] <tmccrary> Is there a way to reset ALL your audio settings? My sound card doesn't play anything, although there's no error (i.e. I have mixer controls, etc)
[04:42] <zeroda1> tmccrary: reinstall
[04:42] <magnetron> kevil99: what? please explain
[04:42] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: the pastebin of the config.log is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19132/ -- thanks for looking at this for me :-)
[04:42] <tmccrary> I tried asoundconf set-default-card CK804 (which is what results after I run asoundconf list)
[04:42] <tmccrary> But still nothing
[04:42] <LucheiN> sera
[04:42] <sipior> tmccrary: if you're using alsa (you probaly are), then i think you can shutdown alsa, remove the alsaconf file in /etc, and then restart
[04:43] <sipior> tmccrary: i believe that would do what you want
[04:43] <tmccrary> thanks, I will try that
[04:43] <gonnaeatthat> is there a command to turn off pcspkr?
[04:43] <gonnaeatthat> i tried rmmod pcspkr but to no avail
[04:43] <sn0> explicitlyambigu im not much of a coder really but looking at that i would start with installing the packages: aclocal-1.4 autoconf automake-1.4 autoheader and makeinfo
[04:43] <sn0> i assume you already have build-essential ?
[04:44] <sipior> gonnaeatthat: you could try muting it in your mixer
[04:44] <gonnaeatthat> nope
[04:44] <gonnaeatthat> i did try the turn off pc speaker under sound and didnt do anything
[04:44] <sn0> gonnaeatthat there are a few methods
[04:45] <sipior> gonnaeatthat: open up your box and cut the wires going to the speaker :-)
[04:45] <sn0> http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/110
[04:45] <gonnaeatthat> lol its a laptop
[04:45] <gonnaeatthat> i dont wanna bother on that one
[04:46] <bobbob1016> can anyone help me with my internet speeds?  my ping is always 800+, on my mac mini, which is on the same switch, I get under 150 ping, when I do "routes" I get 4 routes
[04:46] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: i think i have all the build essentials...the one i'm not sure about is listed on the website as 'POSIX threads (If you have Linux make sure you use glibc2)' but i can't find glibc2 on my system?
[04:46] <sipior> bobbob1016: well, what are you pinging?
[04:47] <gonnaeatthat> i found a method sipior
[04:47] <sipior> gonnaeatthat: yes?
[04:47] <gonnaeatthat> setterm -blength 0
[04:47] <gonnaeatthat> no clue what the hell that did but it worked
[04:47] <gonnaeatthat> :)
[04:47] <sn0> 'build-essential- is a meta package explicitlyambigu that installs compilers and dev files required to build
[04:47] <bobbob1016> sipior, when I do a speedtest, on speedtest.net or anything like that
[04:47] <sn0> it looks like you have gcc already
[04:47] <sipior> gonnaeatthat: yeah, that 'll work in the terminal
[04:48] <sn0> thats 'build-essential'
[04:48] <christine_> where can i view my disk space avaible?
[04:48] <sipior> bobbob1016: why not try reaching another host, and see if it's still a problem
[04:48] <Noodlesgc> is it possible for me to apply write access to my HD?
[04:48] <sipior> Noodlesgc: i hope so!
[04:48] <bobbob1016> sipior, I've tried two different hosts, speedtest.net, and my bellsouth one
[04:48] <Noodlesgc> well so far ive had no luck
[04:49] <christine_> where can i view how many space still available in my hard drive?
[04:49] <sipior> bobbob1016: could you pastebin the ping results, along with traceroute and "route -n"?
[04:49] <bobbob1016> sipior, what should I ping?
[04:49] <sipior> christine_: df -k .
[04:49] <bobbob1016> sipior, google or my DNS?
[04:49] <sipior> bobbob1016: anything is fine
[04:50] <christine_> sipior: with out using terminal?
[04:50] <cwujud> Hi, I'm stumped: my Compaq Presario laptop doesn't recognize my battery.  Can anyone help?
[04:50] <adam83rn> hi
[04:50] <bobbob1016> sipior, sorry, I missed that, could you repeat it?
[04:50] <heze> hi all, i'm trying to make dhclient not to put any route entries on my feisty. i tried removing "routers" from the request option in dhclient.conf but i think my dhcp server still offers a gateway and it gets set by dhclient. :/ any ideas?
[04:51] <adam83rn> im having problems configuring evolution mail, i can recieve mail but it wont connect to the smtp server to send it,   can anyone help
[04:51] <bobbob1016> sipior, I was closing a window in firefox, ctrl+w, and then I clicked IRC, I guess it closed the channel window
[04:51] <orbin> christine_: sys > admin > system monitor
[04:51] <sipior> bobbob1016: i said "anything is fine" :)
[04:51] <orbin> christine_: then file systems tab
[04:51] <bobbob1016> sipior, ok, one minute
[04:51] <christine_> orbin: thanks!
[04:52] <bobbob1016> sipior, you said a route -n too, right?
[04:52] <orbin> christine_: sure
[04:52] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: the error i don't understand is after i run the ./configure command the program runs for a while then spits out the line 'configure: error: Sorry: can't find libz/libgz.
[04:52] <explicitlyambigu> '
[04:52] <sipior> bobbob1016: please
[04:52] <explicitlyambigu> andsn0: and that's what i can't track down
[04:53] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: this is what led me to think that i was missing a library
[04:53] <sn0> indeed explicitlyambigu
[04:53] <LeeQ> anyone who use ait card can set  video window to be transperent?
[04:53] <bobbob1016> sipior, ping google, or traceroute it?
[04:53] <sn0> well searching google for find libz/libgz took me to: http://216.239.59.104/search?q=cache:Y0sXv-pKxfkJ:collie.low-temp.sci.yamaguchi-u.ac.jp/~ashida/comp/surf.html+can%27t+find+libz/libgz.&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=uk
[04:53] <LeeQ> anyone who use ATI card can set  video window to be transperent?
[04:53] <sn0> its in japanese, but it clearly states the -dev package required to build surf, so check it out
[04:53] <sipior> bobbob1016: the traceroute is fine
[04:54] <bobbob1016> LeeQ, try asking on the #ubuntu-effects channel
[04:54] <joseph> anyone know how to change the default page size that ubuntu uses from A4 to letter?
[04:54] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: thanks for your time :D
[04:54] <LeeQ> Thanks,bobbob1016
[04:54] <sn0> no prob explicitlyambigu , hope it works :)
[04:54] <MenZa> Has anyone got any idea which SCSI driver the Intel SE7401BR2 Server Motherboard needs?
[04:54] <explicitlyambigu> i'll check it out
[04:54] <joseph> i changed it in the printer properties, but it still wants to default to a4
[04:55] <joseph> i'm running feisty
[04:55] <gonnaeatthat> jospeh load up one of the other print utilities
[04:55] <gonnaeatthat> try one of those
[04:55] <gonnaeatthat> easiest way
[04:55] <joseph> any that you would suggest?
[04:55] <gonnaeatthat> let me look
[04:56] <joseph> this is actually for my boss
[04:56] <sn0> MenZa lspci should tell you how the system finds the chipset/scsi chip
[04:56] <joseph> he's started using ubuntu but the print thing has me stumped
[04:56] <joseph> and him as well
[04:56] <joseph> as when i change it from a4 to letter it actually works and on his machine it doesn;'t
[04:56] <joseph> which is weird
[04:56] <gonnaeatthat> xfce4 print manager
[04:56] <MenZa> sn0: I'm in the server installation. It finds none.
[04:57] <sn0> MenZa can you pastebin the output please?
[04:57] <bobbob1016> sipior, http://pastebin.ca/470828
[04:57] <sn0> !pastebin
[04:57] <fryfrog> Does anyone know of an eAccelerator package for Feisty?
[04:57] <gonnaeatthat> joseph: go to applications->add remove-> search print scroll down a little
[04:57] <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)
[04:57] <MenZa> sn0: eh, I have no output
[04:57] <MenZa> I'm in the serer installation
[04:57] <MenZa> And I have a dialogue
[04:57] <bobbob1016> sipior, I figured the vnic0 is something parallels did.  Ubuntu is the host OS, and XP is the guest in parallels.
[04:57] <MenZa> Which states "No disk drives found! If you know the name of the driver, your disk drive uses, select it from the list"
[04:57] <sn0> joseph check /etc/papersize
[04:57] <joseph> ok
[04:57] <joseph> hopefully that will resolve my isse
[04:58] <joseph> issue:
[04:58] <joseph> :-)
[04:58] <sn0> MenZa ok so you are at the actual install screen, hmm are you installing feisty ?
[04:58] <gonnaeatthat> joseph: thats what i ususally do to start find an alternative otherwise it is terminal time and i hate it
[04:58] <joseph> ok
[04:58] <jackrammer> hello, can someone point me to a good tutorial on tftp installation?
[04:59] <joseph> sn0... what would i look for there?
[04:59] <scriptdevil> i am currently using gentoo. I got a 250 gig disk and so i decided to remove my current harddisk which is only 80 gig. now i am thinking of changing the distro .. is ubuntu ahead of gentoo in packages?
[04:59] <scriptdevil> i mean like python/ruby/xfce etc
[04:59] <fryfrog> scriptdevil: only LFS is ahead of gentoo in packages
[04:59] <sipior> bobbob1016: these times don't look bad at all, less than 100ms?
[04:59] <jackrammer> I'm trying to get a cisco 2811 to tftp to my laptop
[04:59] <MenZa> yes, sn0
[04:59] <aro> !info valgrind
[04:59] <violator_> when is fluxbuntu be out on the mainstream?
[04:59] <sn0> MenZa try pressing ctrl+alt+f1 to get a console screen, then type lspci | more and press space to scroll down the text
[04:59] <ubotu> valgrind: A memory debugger and profiler. In component main, is optional. Version 1:3.2.1-1ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 13895 kB, installed size 33768 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 powerpc)
[04:59] <fryfrog> scriptdevil: gentoo "packages" are build scripts, so they almost instantaly can have the latest version of anything.  I'm a former gentoo user (and lover) who switched to Ubuntu and have been happy with it
[04:59] <LeeQ> anyone who use ATI card can set video window to be transperent?
[04:59] <sn0> look for the scsi information if there is any
[04:59] <sipior> bobbob1016: but i thought parallels was a mac osx thing, so how could ubuntu be the host?
[05:00] <violator_> !ping
[05:00] <ubotu> pong
[05:00] <cwujud> I have a Compaq Presario running Ubuntu Feisty that doesn't want to recognize my battery.  I've tried reinstalling the acpi stuff, hal, gnome-power-manager, and the kernel.  I'm stumped.  Does anyone have any ideas?
[05:00] <scriptdevil> fryfrog: i mean... one thing i have started hating all the masked packages.. i am still in ghc 6.4 and python 2.4
[05:00] <bobbob1016> sipior, there's parallels for linux and windows, they don't really support it though
[05:00] <MenZa> sn0: I don't get a terminal.
[05:00] <violator_> !ping
[05:00] <violator_> when is fluxbuntu be out on the mainstream?
[05:00] <axz> hey guys where to find flash plugins?
[05:00] <sipior> bobbob1016: interesting. but why do you feel your connection is particularly slow?
[05:00] <NewG> Hi, I installed Feisty on laptop external harddisk
[05:00] <MenZa> !flash | sipior
[05:00] <ubotu> sipior: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[05:00] <bobbob1016> sipior, yeah, but when I do the speedtest, I get 3mbps, roughly on my ubuntu, and 6.0ish on my Mac and XP machine
[05:00] <fryfrog> scriptdevil: in gentoo, run ~x86 or ~amd64 if you want bleeding edge of bleeding edge
[05:00] <orbin> joseph: it's a plain text file.  if it says a4, change it to letter
[05:01] <axz> thx m8
[05:01] <sipior> MenZa: why?
[05:01] <NewG> my problem is, I can't boot from Grub.. what should I give for root (....)
[05:01] <MenZa> sipior: Look at what ubotu said.
[05:01] <joseph> ok
[05:01] <joseph> thanks a ton orbin
[05:01] <joseph> :-)
[05:01] <Ania_12> czesc jestem ania i mam 12 lat
[05:01] <MenZa> sn0: It's... baffling to say the least
[05:01] <scriptdevil> fryfrog: ghc 6.6 is hard masked... it doesnt compile.. that is why i am planning to jump to a binary distro
[05:01] <sipior> MenZa: i mean, why are you wasting my time with this flash rubbish? i dont' remember asking you anything
[05:01] <joseph> does cups read that info for paper size information?
[05:01] <NewG> during partitioning it showed something like sdb for my external usb harddisk.. also mentioned about SCSI 3 somethin
[05:02] <fryfrog> scriptdevil: sorry, i dunno what ghc is
[05:02] <MenZa> I think I might have found it myself, sn0
[05:02] <MenZa> hmm, nope
[05:02] <sn0> MenZa im not sure what to try next, if you have the latest desktop cd you could boot from that to try and discover the scsi information
[05:02] <CheshireViking_> !pl | Ania_12
[05:02] <ubotu> Ania_12: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[05:02] <MenZa> I should have it, sn0
[05:02] <MenZa> hmm
[05:02] <orbin> joseph: no ideas.  i just did a quick search and that file was one of the hits and sn0 got the suggestion in before me. :)
[05:02] <MenZa> grr, thanks
[05:02] <Ind[y] > how can someone create a patch (maybe .diff file?) on linux and how on win32?
[05:02] <cal> hi there
[05:02] <Ind[y] > how can someone create a patch (maybe .diff file?) on linux and how on win32?
[05:02] <bobbob1016> sipior, it seems to have changed when I switched the powerline networking adapter I have, I switched it for the same type
[05:02] <joseph> ok
[05:02] <joseph> i'll try it
[05:02] <sethk> Ind[y] , a patch file is just the output of diff
[05:03] <sethk> Ind[y] , I use cygwin tools to do it in windows
[05:03] <joseph> watch it change the size to be "tabloid"
[05:03] <joseph> when i change it to letter
[05:03] <joseph> that would be just my luck
[05:03] <joseph> :-)
[05:03] <Ind[y] > sorry for flooding. it was a typo
[05:03] <joseph> thanks for the help everyone

[05:04] <Slick_> hey guys, I've just bought and installed a 500GB drive for all of my documents, downloads, music etc.  it's running as a master on an IDE channel, whereas my primary drive which I want to install ubuntu on is the primary on a sata channel.  I want to format the new 50GB drive as a ext3, and I'm using Gparted atm, however it's asking if I want it as a primary or extended partition, which one should I choose?
[05:04] <scriptdevil> is ubuntu configurable? i mean.. i know it is impossible to match gentoo for that.. but is it possible to make it do things the way you want it to?
[05:04] <sn0> Slick_ stick to primary if you don't plan to have many partitions
[05:04] <Slick_> I dont plan to have any partitions
[05:04] <sn0> but if you do you can later create logical/extended partitions if required
[05:04] <fryfrog> Slick_: primary if you only plan on havving 1-3 parititions on the disk
[05:04] <fryfrog> er, 1-4
[05:04] <jackrammer> Anyone configured TFTP on Feisty and done a file transfer from a switch/router?
[05:04] <fryfrog> er, you have to have *1* partition :p
[05:04] <sipior> bobbob1016: ah, that's very different than latency issues.  what's the maximum inbound connection rate?
[05:04] <scriptdevil> hey.. is there an ubuntu which starts with just a wm?
[05:04] <adam83rn> can some1 help with evolution mail ?
[05:05] <drif> scriptdevil: in a way I find that question rather strange
[05:05] <bobbob1016> sipior, my downstream from my DSL is 6.0
[05:05] <drif> scriptdevil: the first one I mean
[05:05] <Slick_> fryfrog, yeah I meant I want 1, so it doesn't matter if I format it as primary, but dont install ubuntu on it?
[05:05] <joseph> i won't get fired
[05:05] <joseph> this is the only "bug" in ubuntu that has affected him
[05:05] <joseph> :-)
[05:05] <joseph> take care all
[05:05] <axz> ERROR: Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported by the

[05:05] <scriptdevil> drif: i mean is it possible to change the stuff that loads when the PC boots and use startx instead of gdm
[05:06] <sipior> bobbob1016: you might try playing with the maximum transfer rate of the interface under linux, it's possible that it is too small (but that's unlikely)
[05:06] <sn0> yea axz :(
[05:06] <Stormx2> Just got a new 300gb hard drive for storing general stuff. Any suggestions on what filesystem to partition it on?
[05:06] <axz> :(
[05:06] <Stormx2> s/to/with
[05:06] <sipior> bobbob1016: without knowing exactly what this benchmarking site does, i couldn't hazard a further guess
[05:06] <sn0> Stormx2 ext3 is fine
[05:06] <axz> so ppl with x64 cant use it?
[05:06] <Stormx2> axz: You can, but it is a little complex.
[05:06] <axz> aah
[05:06] <axz> shame
[05:07] <sn0> axz there is currently no adobe 64bit version of flash for any os, on linux you can install a pluginwrapper to work with browers
[05:07] <axz> great os guys
[05:07] <Slick_> should I check the 'round to cylinders' box in gparted?
[05:07] <void^> there's workarounds, either using nspluginwrapper or a 32bit firefox
[05:07] <baker> >AXZ!!! no you can install it!!!!
[05:07] <sn0> its not required Slick_
[05:07] <MenZa> ahh, sn0
[05:07] <axz> thx sn0
[05:07] <bobbob1016> sipior, how would I play with the maximum transfer rate?
[05:07] <Stormx2> baker: Don't shout.
[05:07] <baker> i have it running
[05:07] <Slick_> sn0, its checked as default, what is it?
[05:07] <captaintrips> i just run 32 bit on my athlon 64. its still faster than a p4 in 32 and no compatibility issues
[05:07] <sipior> bobbob1016: start with "man ifconfig" :-)
[05:07] <MenZa> 03:03.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7901A U320 (rev 03)
[05:07] <MenZa> :)
[05:07] <MenZa> That makes me happy.
[05:07] <MenZa> The question is
[05:08] <axz> baker, made me def :P
[05:08] <Stormx2> baker: You can, but like people have pointed out, in a non-standard way
[05:08] <MenZa> Whether the hard drive was found, or not
[05:08] <sipior> bobbob1016: the mtu option is what you want
[05:08] <sn0> Slick_ leave it enabled then, it mearly does what it says :)
[05:08] <baker> ya
[05:08] <sn0> MenZa  cool! something to work on then
[05:08] <Slick_> ok thanks sn0
[05:08] <MenZa> sn0: yeah, let me check the controller's bios
[05:08] <axz> sn0, pluginwrapper is on live cd?
[05:08] <baker> sorry
[05:08] <scriptdevil> does xubuntu have the same package repository as ubuntu?
[05:08] <sn0> axz i don't believe so no, there is information on wiki.ubuntu.com if you search for flash
[05:08] <Stormx2> axz: Probably not. apt-get install it
[05:09] <sn0> maybe its on !flash actually
[05:09] <sn0> !flash
[05:09] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[05:09] <Stormx2> Exactly.
[05:09] <bobbob1016> sipior, and I enter it in mbps, as in I have a 6mbps connection, or MBps?  I always get the two confused
[05:09] <Ind[y] > How do I create a patch file using diff?
[05:09] <captaintrips> i was wondering why i couldnt get flash to work
 yes
[05:09] <captaintrips> lol
[05:09] <baker> no need somme nd"something"wrapper, no?
[05:09] <violator_> another topic, what driver to use for ATI Radeon X300SE?
[05:09] <KlasRudian> m = milli, M = Mega
[05:09] <MenZa> sn0: the BIOS states that AIC-7901 at slot 00 03:03:00 is found
[05:09] <scriptdevil> Samuli^: ok.. thanks... i am going to download xubuntu
[05:10] <bobbob1016> I meant Mbps vs MBps
[05:10] <captaintrips> my x800 runs fine with the default driver :)   running beryl and everything
[05:10] <steve__> hi all
[05:10] <scriptdevil> :D gentoo to ubuntu.. the metamorphism begins
[05:10] <sipior> bobbob1016: you'll have to check the man page, i don't recall

[05:10] <sipior> bobbob1016: i believe it's in bytes (not MB)
[05:10] <NewG> Ubuntu installation didn't set up Grub options correctly. For example it refers to hda, when all the installation of linux went to another HD. HELP!?
[05:10] <sipior> steve__: nvidia-settings, iirc
[05:11] <PhoenixUK> wtf
[05:11] <KlasRudian> oooh shit
[05:11] <Stormx2> m-m-m-m-monster kill!!!
[05:11] <LjL> !netsplit
[05:11] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[05:11] <luisbg> what tool should I use to search and connections to wifi connections?
[05:11] <SlimeyPete> NewG: use the editor which is built in to the grub menu. Change the option "boot" to another value (format is hd(drive, partition) - you may need to do this via trial and error.
[05:11] <Mohd> DotA!!!
[05:11] <steve__> command not found:O

[05:12] <Insanexx> hello everyone
[05:12] <steve__> but erm ya i get a command not found on trying nvidia-settings
[05:12] <sn0> MenZa i believe that uses the aacraid module to support that chipset, can you run lsmod to check it loaded?
[05:12] <MenZa> sn0: my only problem is this, the "boot splash", if you will, on the scsi controller, doesn't list the device,but when I enter its bios, it is shown
[05:12] <NewG> SmileyPete: I did and I tried many other alternatives, they all say No Such partition error... Can grub list all partitions it can see?
[05:12] <Mohd> Guys how can i enter as a root user? So i can edit sources.list?
[05:12] <MenZa> sn0: I rebooted out of it :/
[05:12] <MenZa> Mohd: sudo
[05:13] <axz> guys something else is win4lin also on live cd?
[05:13] <MenZa> Mohd: e.g. sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:13] <LjL> !sudo > Mohd    (Mohd, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:13] <axz> or do i need to get it?
[05:13] <SlimeyPete> NewG: I don't think so, but I'm not an expert. It might be able to - try typing "help" and playing around with the commands it lists.
[05:13] <Insanexx> anyone manage to install ubuntu on a dell inspiron x1400?
[05:13] <fatboysmith> I have two machines upgraded from Edgy to Feisty.  I have installed Frostwire using official repositories, Automatix and via gdebi (downloaded from frostwire's website).  I have SunJava6 JRE, bin and fonts all installed and configured as default system java (sudo sudo update-alternatives --config java).  I start frostwire via shell or icon I get splash screen and it just hangs there. Nothing.  When I exit out I standard error mes
[05:13] <sn0> that would be useful to know MenZa , it seems its an onboard u320 scsi adapter controller, so im not sure how well its supported
[05:13] <MenZa> Insanexx: I suggest you search the wiki, help.ubuntu.com
[05:13] <sn0> check up on it however
[05:13] <bobbob1016> is there anyway I get get ubuntu to probe for what it should use for the mtu?
[05:13] <Coster> is it 'couse video card driver when I try to change resolution the screen goes all crazy?
[05:13] <MenZa> sn0: I'll reboot back into the desktop then?
[05:13] <sn0> MenZa indeed

[05:16] <Myrtti> /me goes to -offtopic
[05:16] <PhoenixUK> ye mine too :P anyways ... i wanted to ask which distro would u reccomend for beginner ;] , is ubuntu any good ?
[05:16] <geokeratz> I'm greek too
[05:17] <MenZa> Yes, PhoenixUK
[05:17] <MenZa> Definitely
[05:17] <asherZ> yes pheonix
[05:17] <asherZ> latest ubuntu
[05:17] <PhoenixUK> im good at the general stuff but never tried linux, except some old mandrake like 5yrs ago
[05:17] <theodoros> ok i' ll use english
[05:17] <PhoenixUK> had some problems with installing Gentoo today tho
[05:17] <asherZ> i am new to linux also and ive tired lots in past couple of days i love ubuntu
[05:17] <SlimeyPete> PhoenixUK: Ubuntu is *much* easier to install than Gentoo :)
[05:18] <PhoenixUK> ye thats what i've read
[05:18] <PhoenixUK> ;] 
[05:18] <wbrady> d
[05:18] <Jammeri> PhoenixUK, imo you shouldn't install Gentoo if you haven't used Linux :)
[05:18] <wbrady> ddddd
[05:18] <geokeratz> theodoros>  what's ur city?
[05:18] <steve__> hey sipior  nvidia-settings apparently doesnt exist for me
[05:18] <fatboysmith> Anyone?
[05:18] <PhoenixUK> i just had some problems with hardrive at the end of installing , but meh... i dont feel like keep trying it :P
[05:18] <NewG> can grub show the location where it was run by some command? for example boot partition of (hd1,0)
[05:18] <PhoenixUK> gotta prolly get something easier for start
[05:18] <theodoros> katerini
[05:18] <MenZa> sn0: alright, what am I looking for?
[05:18] <PhoenixUK> and then maybe ill switch
[05:18] <sipior> steve__: have you installed it?
[05:19] <MenZa> I have... aic79xx listed
[05:19] <steve__> ahh see i got a bit confused, with the restricted driver stuff
[05:19] <geokeratz> oh Thessaloniki here!welcome
[05:19] <MenZa> aic79xx 280024 0
[05:19] <Meatbag> Does anyone know how to setup wireless? Do i need to install a wifi manager?
[05:19] <steve__> im still not to sure if i should stay using them or install the "real" nvidia drivers
[05:19] <theodoros> nice to meat you geokeratz
[05:19] <sn0> MenZa ok can you pastebin what lsmod says, as well as sudo cat /proc/partitions and sudo fdisk -l
[05:19] <sn0> !pastebin
[05:19] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:19] <fatboysmith> I have a problem with Feisty and Frostwire?
[05:19] <geokeratz> nice to meet u
[05:20] <SlimeyPete> steve__: if you want to run games or other 3D apps, you'll need the nvidia drivers. Otherwise, the standard drivers are OK.
[05:20] <MenZa> sn0: Ergh, I have no mouse attached to the box, so I can't really use a gui
[05:20] <geokeratz> too
[05:20] <MenZa> can I dump it with links?
[05:20] <MenZa> elinks, even
[05:20] <PhoenixUK> after i install ubuntu, will i be able to access my old NTFS partitions ?
[05:20] <sn0> probably yes
[05:20] <steve__> SlimeyPete: ok thanks v much i did have a feeling the restricted ones might be just a "make do" till you install the real
[05:20] <SlimeyPete> PhoenixUK: yes, but you'll have to install ntfs-3g (easy to install) in order to write to them
[05:20] <sn0> PhoenixUK yes
[05:20] <PhoenixUK> that would be nice since i dont feel like burning 120gb on cd's now :D
[05:20] <theodoros> ubuntu is the esiest linux i have ever used.
[05:20] <asherZ> yes i was able to but cant enable ntfs-3g for write
[05:20] <sn0> if you install ntfs-config it gives you a nice + easy gui to enable read/write for ntfs partitions
[05:20] <axz> whats better wine or win4lin?
[05:20] <axz> for win emu
[05:20] <fatboysmith> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19138/
[05:21] <PhoenixUK> just access, dont need to write on it
[05:21] <SlimeyPete> steve__: the "restricted" ones are the full official drivers - they are called "restricted" because they are not open-source. They actually offer more functionality than the standard ones.
[05:21] <mars_> Hi all. What wifi tool can I use if network manager, wicd and wifi radar fails?
[05:21] <steve__> SlimeyPete: oh, but they dont include the settings panel by default?
[05:21] <geokeratz> theodoros>  do u study in Athens?
[05:21] <asherZ> SlimeyPete~ that helped me too.
[05:21] <mdw> g
[05:22] <PhoenixUK> should i download the 6.x version or 7.x ?
[05:22] <SlimeyPete> steve__: yeah.
[05:22] <Meatbag> Does anyone know how to setup wireless? Do i need to install a wifi manager?
[05:22] <SlimeyPete> PhoenixUK: 7.x is best unless you're running a workstation.
[05:22] <asherZ> PhoenixUK~ 7
[05:22] <luisbg> what tool should I use to search and connections to wifi connections?
[05:22] <sipior> Meatbag: network-mananger works quite well in most cases
[05:22] <PhoenixUK> k good thats what im doing
[05:22] <jgalvin1> sudo iwlist scanning
[05:22] <steve__> SlimeyPete: well i tried installing the settings however i stopped it a second as it wants to remove nvidia-glx (this seems bad)
[05:23] <theodoros> no i live in katerini
[05:23] <asherZ> PheonixUK~ its easy it runs live from cd then there is an install icon on desktop :D
[05:23] <Meatbag> sipior: i can't get connected through network, just says disconnected...i used ndiswrapper to install the card
[05:23] <Slick_> whats the command to find out informations about your partitions?
[05:23] <sipior> Meatbag: you mean with network-manager?
[05:23] <geokeratz> theodoros> r u now in Athens?thats what i see here...
[05:23] <PhoenixUK> asherz you mean ubuntu ? ;] 
[05:24] <PhoenixUK> or what ?
[05:24] <asherZ> PheonixUK: yes
[05:24] <PhoenixUK> well there is same icon on gentoo :p
[05:24] <Meatbag> sipior: where's network manager? I'm just going into system admin > networking
[05:24] <asherZ> PheonixUK: ah :)
[05:24] <PhoenixUK> but i was getting some damn errors close to end of install :S
[05:24] <asherZ> PheonixUK: never tried gentoo
[05:24] <MenZa> Meatbag: run network-manager-gnome& in a terminal
[05:24] <PhoenixUK> and got no idea whats wrong
[05:24] <sipior> Meatbag: yeah, don't do that. install network-mamanger-gnome
[05:24] <Meatbag> ooh ok, thanks :D
[05:24] <MenZa> sipior: my apologies--he's yours ;)
[05:24] <PhoenixUK> so im downloading now ubuntu and gonna check it soon :>

[05:25] <AnRkey> how do i send a notice to someone logged in via ssh?
[05:26] <MenZa> Insanexx: try running sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:26] <geokeratz> theodoros> just testing geotool right now thats why

[05:26] <sipior> AnRkey: wall should work, i think
[05:26] <MenZa> wait actually
[05:26] <theodoros> i don't use ote
[05:26] <MenZa> Insanexx: what error message do you get?
[05:26] <javaJake> I like the Vista Dreamscape thingy and would like to reproduce that on my desktop.
[05:26] <shockwave1> hello
[05:26] <Tomcat_> javaJake: The e17 wm can do that somehow... but probably only in e17 ;)
[05:26] <AnRkey> sipior, shweet thanks
[05:26] <shockwave1> are there any problems with upgrading to 7.04
[05:26] <javaJake> Tomcat_, I'm using Beryl
[05:26] <Insanexx> menza : i got an error saying that X server failed to load when i attempt to install from the cd
[05:26] <sipior> AnRkey: or "write" which sends to just one user
[05:27] <javaJake> Tomcat_, thus my thirst for MORE! ;)
[05:27] <shockwave1> just using synaptic to do the upgrade?
[05:27] <MenZa> Insanexx: ah, try with safe graphics
[05:27] <MenZa> Insanexx: the X server is your GUI
[05:27] <Insanexx> menza : it doesnt help
[05:27] <Tomcat_> javaJake: Haven't seen it yet... maybe write a suggestion to the beryl guys.
[05:27] <geokeratz> theodoros> ok so geotool is crapy then
[05:27] <Insanexx> menza : i've tried =/
[05:27] <MenZa> Insanexx: hmm, try the alternate install cd
[05:27] <javaJake> Tomcat_, yea... maybe.
[05:27] <Insanexx> menza : noob here, dont know how to install via alternate =/
[05:27] <Insanexx> menza : any guide?
[05:28] <fit4lfe> I can only get 640x480 on a 56in hdtv
[05:28] <fit4lfe> using feisty
[05:28] <MenZa> Insanexx: not to my knowledge, and I've not tried using it before
[05:28] <fit4lfe> how can I change this
[05:28] <MenZa> !resolution > fit4lfe (see ubotu's pm)
[05:28] <AnRkey> sipior, i think write is the one i am looking for, thanks very much :D

[05:29] <Insanexx> javajake: how how?
[05:29] <theodoros> bb to everyone
[05:29] <javaJake> Insanexx, how what?
[05:29] <Insanexx> lol =/
[05:29] <javaJake> theodoros, bye
[05:29] <Insanexx> javajake : how to use the alternate cd to install

[05:29] <tushar> hey any1 here?
[05:29] <MenZa> tushar: yes.
[05:30] <javaJake> Insanexx, you, uh, put the CD in something called a CD-ROM drive... push a power button (refer to your computer manual for that one), and.... ;)
[05:30] <tushar> can u suggest 2 me any softare so that i can monito my internet usage
[05:30] <tushar> that is how much data transfer is taking place
[05:30] <MenZa> err, how do I exit vim o_O?
[05:30] <javaJake> Insanexx, seriously, though, I've used myself. It's not as graphical, and it uses the keyboard, but it is fairly simple to figure out
[05:30] <SlimeyPete> MenZa: press esc then type :q and enter
[05:30] <Ix0s> tushar, Why not just use the network monitor applet in the panel?
[05:30] <profx> need a hand with Thunderbird, i need to access my works' servers password from my home account, I have found it in signons.txt (in ~/.mozilla-thunderbird) encrypted, anything I can do to get it?
[05:30] <erUSUL> MenZa: in command mode !q
[05:30] <SlimeyPete> MenZa: you may need to type :q!
[05:30] <tushar> huh? where
[05:31] <tushar> i din seem 2 find 1
[05:31] <MenZa> lol, thanks
[05:31] <qiyong> is sata using dma?
[05:31] <Ix0s> tushar, Try right clicking your panel and clicking add to panel and see if its in there
[05:31] <xtknight9> qiyong yes SATA can use DMA
[05:31] <xtknight9> qiyong usually when libata designates a SCSI/sata device for an IDE disk, it will set the highest DMA mode.  you can check with hdparm -i /dev/drive
[05:32] <EmxBA> I've got Feisty Fawn CDs after 15 days! :)
[05:32] <MenZa> Can anyone here tell me how I dump the contents of a command into a form in elinks? (Pastebin)
[05:32] <tushar> hey thanks i found it
[05:32] <luisbg> what tool should I use to search and connections to wifi connections?
[05:32] <xtknight9> luisbg network manager?
[05:32] <javaJake> EmxBA, wow!!!
[05:33] <MenZa> luisbg: some people say network manager is fine, I've had bad experiences with it, and use wifi-radar
[05:33] <MenZa> !info wifi-radar
[05:33] <ubotu> wifi-radar: graphical utility for managing Wi-Fi profiles. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.9.7-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 38 kB, installed size 232 kB
[05:33] <qiyong> xtknight, hdparam doesn't work on sata, is it?
[05:33] <javaJake> luisbg, your card has to support the WEXT extensions for it to work properly with NetworkManager
[05:33] <steve__> ok well i installed nvidia-settings using apt-get but its not showing up at all
[05:33] <qiyong> xtknight, hdparm /dev/sda fails
[05:33] <xtknight9> qiyong some commands of it work
[05:33] <xtknight9> try hdparm -i /dev/sda
[05:34] <luisbg> javaJake, I'm in a powebook using ndiswrapper
[05:34] <asherZ> wow ubuntu is using 234mb of 757mb or ram w/ xmms playing xchat couple of firefoxs on 4 workspaces w/ compiz @ high res :o in windows with just firefox its like 400mbs loool
[05:34] <EmxBA> did anyone get CDs before me? ^^
[05:34] <Keith-BlindUser> Hi all. Was wondering how to check if hibernation is available for my hardware with Ubuntu Feisty?
[05:34] <PhoenixUK> hyh

[05:48] <rfh> hi, anybody here knowing about wine on feisty?
[05:48] <nomad111> hey all im having trouble installing java
[05:48] <sipior> axz: yes, you can just change the partition type without formatting
[05:48] <nomad111> when i got to update alternatives
[05:48] <Michael__> I have the book "Beginning Ubuntu" Linux by Keir Thomas.  I am trying to get a dial-up modem to work.  The author asks people to download a certain file that's meant for Edgy, not Feisty.  How do I get the right file?
[05:48] <luisbg> javaJake, last question... after installing the bcm43xx through apt, and opening the module with lsmod, all working and cool, should I do something else so this module always get's turned on on boot or has it been done for me already?
[05:48] <sipior> Michael__: well, what's the file?
[05:49] <nomad111> when i go to update-java-alternatives
[05:49] <axz> sipior, what app?
[05:49] <nomad111> and select java-6-sun,
[05:49] <nomad111> i get a bad output
[05:49] <sipior> axz: fdisk, but be careful. boot from a live install disk
[05:50] <nomad111> the whole process is listed here
[05:50] <nomad111> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19139/
[05:50] <nomad111> i cant figure out what i did wrong
[05:50] <Michael__> gnome-ppp_0.3.23-0ubuntu2_i386.deb
[05:50] <sipior> Michael__: try an "apt-cache search gnome-ppp" and see what turns up
[05:50] <axz> sipior, so wont lose any info?
[05:51] <nomad111> can anyone help me with my issue
[05:51] <nomad111> i cant seem to figure out anything
[05:51] <Meatbag> sipior: i just installed gnome-network-manager and now my card always turns off before i get into linux...any idea?
[05:51] <sipior> axz: i'd need to understand exactly what you plan to do before answering that
[05:51] <weswh-> does anyone know how to "apt-get" medibuntu?
[05:51] <sipior> Meatbag: and does network
[05:51] <magnetron> !repeat | nomad111
[05:51] <ubotu> nomad111: 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
[05:51] <sipior> Meatbag: network-manager start up properly?
[05:51] <helgeT> anyone experienced with a "Grub error 21" after installation of ubuntu 7.04? I think the problem may have to do with me using an IDE disk, but the installer thinks it's /dev/sda (sata?). Only one harddisk, on a shared IDE with the CD-ROM
[05:52] <Michael__> right within Ubuntu.  Oddly, his instructions were to download this using XP or another computer?
[05:52] <axz> sipior, well i have portition with some music on it 50+ gb.. dont wana lose it...wana chage it from NTFS to linux
[05:52] <Meatbag> sipior: yeah it starts up saying no network devices
[05:52] <jsizzle> greetings, how do I reset my gnome settings on feisty? I tried rm -rf .gnome and .gnome2 with no luck
[05:52] <sipior> axz: that will destroy the data. move the files, reformat the partition, and then move them back
[05:52] <axz> yeah will try that
[05:52] <sipior> Meatbag: is the driver for the card loaded?
[05:52] <axz> thx agian
[05:53] <bur[n] er> !pidgin
[05:53] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept - At the time of feisty's final freeze, Pidgin has not been released, so Pidgin will not be going into feisty.  Expect Pidgin in feisty+1!  See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info
[05:53] <nomad111> magnetron: i didnt repeat anything lol, but i do sound frustrated lol
[05:53] <hrik001> can someone help me open a shared folder on a windows pc from Xubuntu ?
[05:53] <Meatbag> sipior: i think so, i'll check
[05:53] <bur[n] er> ubotu is not hip... pidgin has been released in fact :)
[05:53] <Michael__> I should have said Right within Ubuntu?...
[05:53] <Pici> bur[n] er: It said nothing about when it was going to be released. It just said it wouldnt be in feisty.
[05:54] <bigjohnto>  ok question, i am getting some spam to just one email here, i check the rbl's and it is listed but not on sorbs etc.... but the spam engine score thing is not catching them why? using spamassassin
[05:54] <zero1> Hi guys, i asked recently from  #kubuntu if anyone here has hibernate working for their laptop on feisty?
[05:54] <sipior> Michael__: i don't quite follow. to set up a modem in ubuntu, gnome-ppp seems like the thing to install. no need to download from XP (and what would you do with it after downloading?)
[05:54] <bur[n] er> Pici: awww... "at the time of feisty's final"  I see :)  nevermind
[05:55] <jsizzle> anyone know how to reset feisty to the default settings for the gnome desktop?
[05:56] <Meatbag> sipior: how can i check if it's loaded? i could only see that it was installed
[05:56] <sipior> jsizzle: blow away the .gconfd directory
[05:56] <bur[n] er> jsizzle: you can dump your ~/. files... or just move them to a tmp folder... jsizzle:  sudo mv ~/.* ~/tmp
[05:56] <sipior> Meatbag: lsmod will show loaded kernel modules
[05:56] <Michael__> I don't get it either because you transfer the package to your desktop, then type sudo dpkg -i....
[05:57] <Meatbag> sipior: yeah it's loaded
[05:57] <sipior> Michael__: right. and even simpler than that is to do "sudo apt-get install gnome-ppp", and ubuntu will sort this out for you
[05:57] <bur[n] er> Michael__: anytime someone tells you to "sudo dpkg -i" you have the option of just double-clicking the .deb file to install it
[05:57] <bur[n] er> Michael__: again... when someome tells you to apt-get, you can use synaptic as your gui :)
[05:57] <Meatbag> sipior: its a pcmcia card and it's showing wmaster0 and wlan0 in networking...it only used to start up when wmaster0 was enabled but not anymore
[05:58] <sipior> Meatbag: interesting. does "sudo iwconfig wlan0" show a network address?
[05:58] <Michael__> lot simpler...let me try this... see y'all later...a few minutes to reboot
[05:59] <Michael__> thx!
[05:59] <Meatbag> sipior: only dhcp

[06:01] <vega-_> how to install flash in 64bit?
[06:01] <bobbob1016> ok, I got my pings down from 800+ to the same pings as my other computers on the network on feisty, but now I can't get faster than 4.0mbps on a speedtest on feisty, but I get solid 6.0mbps on my other PC's, how can I change my MTU?  I've tried ifconfig eth0 mtu 1500, and a bunch of different numbers, but no luck, can anyone help?
[06:01] <kwl> hi
[06:02] <jrib> !flash > vega-_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:02] <Abydos313> 1492
[06:02] <kwl> HI!
[06:02] <SurfnKid> cipherz, how do i check the time from the local cli
[06:02] <sipior> bobbob1016: this may not be the mtu, although it would be intetresting to see what value mac osx is using
[06:02] <kwl> i love u guys!!
[06:02] <kwl> i love you guys!!
[06:02] <jrib> vega-_: either setup a chroot like in the guide that the wiki page links to or use nspluginwrapper http://www.janvitus.netsons.org/2007/01/15/nspluginwrapper-adobe-flash-player/
[06:03] <sipior> might simply be that the driver is not capable of sustaining more than 4mbps. is the difference important?
[06:03] <kwl> hi

[06:04] <dynamite> i love u all
[06:04] <edward> #ubuntu
[06:04] <cipherz> SurfnKid, thought you just wanted to run an arbritary command on host x
[06:04] <pierc1> anyone help with dual monitors or suggest somewhere that can help?
[06:04] <sipior> bobbob1016: try ifconfig, but i don't remember what osx uses
[06:05] <ra21vi> pierc1: xinerama
[06:05] <cipherz> pierc1, don't know if this helps, but seem to remember nvidia has a settings tool you can apt-get.. which might help
[06:05] <drew> root: make a user, and rejoin irc.. don't run irc under root heh
[06:05] <bobbob1016> sipior, I did ifconfig, but I don't see mtu anywhere
[06:05] <Meatbag> sipior: it just says IEEE 802.11g   ESSID: ""   Mode: managed   Frequency:2.412GHz   Access Point: Not associated   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr=2346 B   Encryption Key: off
[06:05] <sipior> bobbob1016: i think the right option for bsd is ifconfig -a
[06:05] <Vall-k> hi!
[06:06] <bobbob1016> sipior, nm, it is 1500, it was hiding
[06:06] <sipior> Meatbag: try "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid="name of network""
[06:06] <sipior> bobbob1016: might be a driver issue, if i had to guess
[06:06] <bobbob1016> sipior, it worked fine in edgy, and it was fine more or less until I switched the adapter
[06:06] <sipior> bobbob1016: well, switch it back :)
[06:07] <sipior> Meatbag: then try "sudo dhclient wlan0"
[06:07] <bobbob1016> sipior, I can't, the old one broke
[06:07] <Vall-k> please, somone programming in gambas?
[06:07] <sipior> bobbob1016: very strange, if an identical card should give different results...possibly a bad connection, btu then i expect that it simply wouldn't work at all
[06:08] <myolnir> -_-
[06:08] <bobbob1016> sipior, the way it works is I plug an ethernet cable into my router, then into the adapter then into the wall.  In my room, I have another device that plugs into the wall and gives me ethernet out
[06:08] <Pici> Vall-k: #gambas perhaps
[06:08] <helgeT> Anyone experienced with a "Grub error 21" after installation of ubuntu 7.04? If not, can someone at least tell me how to uninstall GRUB so I can boot my Windows system again?
[06:08] <Vall-k> Pici, the #gambas is dead...
[06:09] <sethk> bobbob1016, that's some wall you've got there.
[06:09] <sipior> bobbob1016: did you swap cables when you swtiched cards?
[06:09] <Linnk> helgeT: If you have your Windows CD, you can always recover using the Recovery Console and the FIXMBR application.
[06:09] <sethk> helgeT, the error means it can't find the kernel it's trying to build.  You can use   fdisk/mbr from windows
[06:09] <sethk> helgeT, or fixmbr
[06:09] <bobbob1016> sipior, the old one that was plugged into the router was a 14mbps, the new one there is 85mbps, I'm using these so I can get more reliable filesharing between computers, as opposed to wifi
[06:09] <sipior> bobbob1016: are the mac and the linux box on the same segment?
[06:09] <bobbob1016> sipior, yeah
[06:09] <bobbob1016> along with a PS3 and an XP machine
[06:10] <lbawinowns> hallo
[06:10] <lbawinowns> can any1 here me_
[06:10] <sipior> lbawinowns: no
[06:10] <helgeT> sethk: doesnt it mean "can't find disk"? disk>kernel
[06:10] <Meatbag> sipior: the first command just brought up a prompt and the second, wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801 twice, then listed the mac address i think for wlan0 and a load of pings by the look of it
[06:10] <lbawinowns> sipior.  thanks..
[06:10] <bobbob1016> and all the others get full speed, I'm not sure if it's a wire issue
[06:10] <Meatbag> sipior: also said no dhcpoffers received
[06:11] <sipior> bobbob1016: seems unlikely, is the linux box generating any other traffic?
[06:11] <sipior> Meatbag: hmm..tough to diagnose remotely
[06:11] <lbawinowns> anyway, Ive done something embarassing, I had no idea that ubuntu was so unstable so i erm.... lets just say that i have 0 byte free on root disk and im running from live cd.
[06:11] <Meatbag> sipior: yeah, the i'm baffled
[06:11] <bobbob1016> sipior, not that I can think of, the only thing I can think of different for the ubuntu box is I have one or two ports forwarded, for torrents
[06:12] <sipior> lbawinowns: how does that qualify as unstable?
[06:12] <x0xx> HeLLo All !!
[06:12] <sipior> bobbob1016: but presumably you weren't downloading those when you ran your tests
[06:12] <x0xx> ...(_.'\/`'._)  hello  (_.'\/`'._)...
[06:12] <lbawinowns> sipior. Im not used to get a red cross saying no more disk space, not getting everything ruined >*

[06:12] <lbawinowns> anyway,  can I rescue it?

[06:23] <x0xx> Myrtti what howto worked for you?
[06:23] <ZaFiL> does somebody have the same problem as me ?
[06:23] <x0xx> can you give me the link plz?
[06:23] <jusama14> How can i install java runtime plugin for firefox?
[06:23] <Myrtti> !bluetooth | x0xx
[06:23] <ubotu> x0xx: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[06:23] <graft> sipior: yep. some situations it opens a new tab, but others it does not (it opens a new window)
[06:23] <sipior> graft: and those situations are?
[06:23] <x0xx> does it worked for you?
[06:23] <ZaFiL> jusama14, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[06:23] <lbawinowns> Hi guys, lets say I have disks ABC, I want A and C to be the Linux root partition, is thtat possible?
[06:23] <Myrtti> x0xx: this one https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothDialup
[06:24] <graft> sipior: uncertain. i think when there's an explicit tag asking for a new window
[06:24] <rfh> anybody having experience with wine on feisty?
[06:24] <graft> sipior: e.g. 'download' links in gmail
[06:24] <jusama14> ZaFiL, yes, I did that but I get  Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "sun-java6-jre"
[06:24] <jusama14> Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "sun-java6-plugin"
[06:24] <DivineMonkey> Anyone know why my system would recognise my wireless card as ethernet when i don't even have ethernet on that computer?
[06:24] <rfh> it only gives me a prgram folder, else is empty
[06:24] <graft> sipior: or this 'open as a google spreadsheet' link was the one that currently annoyed me
[06:24] <sethk> jusama14, then, that's not the correct name
[06:24] <ZaFiL> jusama14, update your /etc/apt/source.list file
[06:24] <x0xx> Myrtti is there anyidea without sudo apt-get install bluez-utils? coz i dont have gprs configred on ubuntu
[06:24] <jusama14> How do I do that?
[06:25] <sipior> graft: hmmm...odd. maybe play with about:config, see if anything there helps?
[06:25] <graft> sipior: any suggestions what i should play with there?
[06:25] <jusama14> I found it, but what do i change in it ZaFiL?
[06:25] <Myrtti> x0xx: you sorta need the bluetooth modules for your system
[06:25] <ZaFiL> jusama14, check on the Ubuntu's website if they offer this file
[06:25] <sipior> graft: i also have opentabfor.middleclick set to true
[06:25] <sipior> graft: search for tab :)
[06:25] <ZaFiL> jusama14 i don't understand
[06:25] <Myrtti> x0xx: download the debs to a usb on some other computer
[06:25] <graft> sipior: yeah i have that set to true as well
[06:25] <EmxBA> or use aptoncd, x0xx
[06:25] <Myrtti> that has connectivity not gprs
[06:26] <Myrtti> that too
[06:26] <sipior> lbawinowns: not as such, but you could repartition the drive more conveniently
[06:26] <x0xx> Myrtti where do i download that deb?
[06:26] <jusama14> ZaFiL, I found the file: sources.list in the directory you told me to, do i just replace that file with the new one?
[06:26] <ChaZ^college> hey all, anyone used Samba, im having a problem with it, in xp, the shares show up and all, but when it asks for un/pw, username is greyed out but with "DELTA/Guest" already in it and i can't change it so I can't login
[06:26] <Myrtti> usb memory, or like if you've got one
[06:26] <vircobum> exit
[06:26] <vircobum> quit
[06:26] <ZaFiL> jusama14, please, find an english person to help you, to hard for me.
[06:27] <Myrtti> /quit
[06:27] <lbawinowns> sipior, can I reach to my B and backup some files and then just format A and B?
[06:27] <Myrtti> there
[06:27] <sipior> lbawinowns: sure, that would work
[06:27] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: are you still around.....?
[06:27] <x0xx> i dont have the deb file by the way. so i asked where do i download .deb setup files from?
[06:27] <jusama14> okay, can someone help me install java runtime for firefox?
[06:27] <sipior> lbawinowns: delete A and B, then remake them as a single partition
[06:27] <sipior> jusama14: sun-java-plugin doesn't work?
[06:27] <Myrtti> x0xx: from a ubuntu mirror near you
[06:27] <lbawinowns> sipior - Can I mount B from my lice cd running, ? I wanna backup 1 file
[06:28] <lbawinowns> or a couple of files
[06:28] <sipior> lbawinowns: yep, but you'll need a place to put it
[06:28] <jusama14> sipior, i typed in sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin
[06:28] <x0xx> Myrtti you got the link?
[06:28] <sipior> jusama14: and it didn't work?
[06:28] <jusama14> sipior, but it says this: Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "sun-java6-jre"
[06:28] <jusama14> Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "sun-java6-plugin"
[06:28] <lbawinowns> sipior - sure, I can host it at internet temproairly

[06:29] <jusama14> sorry
[06:29] <Linnk> Can anyone help me with my grub problem? It's pretty annoying because I can't get any further in the installation of Ubuntu :/
[06:29] <Myrtti> javb: try scribus
[06:30] <lbawinowns> !mount lbawinowns
[06:30] <sipior> jusama14: i have that package, perhaps you're missing a repository?
[06:30] <Myrtti> !mount > lbawinowns
[06:30] <jusama14> sipior, probably
[06:30] <x0xx> Myrtti where do i go now?
[06:30] <sipior> lbawinowns: you'll need to know the drive number
[06:30] <javb> Myrtti, Thanks, any other?
[06:30] <lbawinowns> sipior , I do :), it's 2
[06:30] <sipior> jusama14: try an apt-get update, then try installing it again
[06:30] <x0xx> main , multiverse, restricted or universe?
[06:30] <explicitlyambigu> sn0: thanks for your help earlier....i managed to get the program working....now i can have fun doing some maths ;-)
[06:31] <Myrtti> javb: not really, except inkscape
[06:31] <Myrtti> x0xx: main prolly
[06:31] <sipior> lbawinowns: then it's probably "mount /dev/hda2 /mnt"
[06:31] <x0xx> then?
[06:31] <mcsd> can the kfmclient be installed in gnome?
[06:31] <jusama14> sipior, rm130@rm130-666:~$ apt-get update

[06:32] <withaY> i have no sound in feisty.  how would i go about troubleshooting?
[06:32] <sipior> Vall-k: ps aux | grep doesn't do it?
[06:32] <erUSUL> !sound | withaY
[06:32] <ubotu> withaY: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[06:37] <dimas__> i did installed ov51x-jpeg (binary) but when i try to open the directory from terminal saids directory no found...help please
[06:37] <sipior> jusama14: i would say that you're missing a repository--try using the repository selector in synaptic and see if that doesn't help
[06:37] <erUSUL> Ind[y] : you probably want to use diff -u to produce an "unified diff"
[06:37] <RainCT> kneeki: you mean Pidgin?
[06:37] <Myrtti> x0xx: sorry...
[06:37] <kneeki> RainCT, Yeah =P
[06:38] <kneeki> RainCT, Is there just an update I can do you think?
[06:38] <hwMoD> @ your service
[06:38] <Vall-k> thanks
[06:39] <mcsd> !kfmclient
[06:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kfmclient - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:39] <RainCT> kneeki: If I'm right I didn't got into Feisty with the name Pidgin (it was too late), but it will have that name on the Guspy
[06:39] <lbawinowns> Thanks sipior :)
[06:39] <sipior> lbawinowns: yep, working now?
[06:39] <RainCT> kneeki: but don't worry because anyways it's the same version, only the name changes
[06:39] <Pici> RainCT: Gutsy
[06:40] <kneeki> RainCT, Oh? I thought there was some big ole updates
[06:40] <lbawinowns> sipior , I mounted it and backed up.
[06:40] <MIchael____> Trying to get my dialup modem to work...downloaded gnome-ppp, and it does not recognize the modem at all.  What's next?
[06:40] <ChaZ^college> hey all, anyone used Samba, im having a problem with it, in xp, the shares show up and all, but when it asks for un/pw, username is greyed out but with "DELTA/Guest" already in it and i can't change it so I can't login
[06:40] <RainCT> Pici: yes sorry :p
[06:40] <sipior> MIchael____: what type of modem?
[06:40] <lbawinowns> Now I gotta make Linux install on A and B, should I "remove" them?
[06:40] <alilucio> How do you restart Ubuntu after hitting the atl F2 command?
[06:40] <jusama14> sipior, what repositories should i add?
[06:40] <sipior> lbawinowns: yes, remove those partitions and remake them into a single larger one
[06:40] <dimas__> why if i installed a binary file when i try to open the directory on terminal i can find it?
[06:40] <RainCT> kneeki: what's Pidgin's last version?
[06:40] <lbawinowns> k
[06:41] <sipior> jusama14: not sure, try adding them al :)
[06:41] <concept10> alilucio: you mean restart x, reboot or get back into the GUI?
[06:41] <posingaspopular> RainCT: 2.0
[06:41] <posingaspopular> i just grabbed it
[06:41] <posingaspopular> and it is SWEET
[06:41] <MIchael____> Conexant HSF V.92 RTAD PCI Fax/Modem Voice modem
[06:41] <kneeki> posingaspopular, Is it worth the upgrade from Gaim?
[06:41] <alilucio> concept10: All 3 would be great to know...
[06:41] <sipior> MIchael____: ah, a winmodem,
[06:41] <RainCT> posingaspopular: oh, the final is out?
[06:42] <posingaspopular> yup it just came out
[06:42] <sipior> MIchael____: google for conexant and linux and see if yours is supported. it may not be, sad to say. this on a laptop?
[06:42] <MIchael____> it doesn't say so ... how do I check 4 sure?
[06:42] <posingaspopular> and i like it a thousand time better than gaim
[06:42] <sipior> MIchael____: google,etc.
[06:42] <posingaspopular> grab the release of sourceforge though
[06:42] <MIchael____> no a desktop dell
[06:42] <posingaspopular> pidgin.im seems to be down
[06:42] <RainCT> posingaspopular: but the update will come as gaim on the repos, or won't it be there until Gutsy?
[06:43] <jusama14> sipior, I got it, it was on the main instead of usa server. but now i get this error
[06:43] <posingaspopular> RainCT: not to sure, im not on the linux box atm
[06:43] <DivineMonkey> sipior: it's meatbag, thanks for the help, i just confirmed that it's a driver bug :)
[06:43] <concept10> alilucio: ctrl-alt-del in terminal will reboot your system, ctrl-alt-backspace will restart x, ctrl-alt-f1 - f7 switches your ttys
[06:43] <jusama14> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[06:43] <jusama14> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[06:43] <JasonFX> how do I find the shortnames for programs? What I'm wanting to do is run a program called Wireless Assistant under sudo using a terminal, something like "sudo wireless assistant"
[06:43] <mcsd> can Konqueror be installed on Gnome?
[06:43] <sipior> DivineMonkey: ah, glad it's more or less sorted :)
[06:43] <concept10> alilucio: with f7 usually being the GUI
[06:43] <posingaspopular> mcsd: yea i think so
[06:43] <posingaspopular> but it's not really recommended
[06:43] <posingaspopular> !sense
[06:43] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[06:44] <alilucio> concept10: thanks a million, I tried searching for this but could never find it, thanks!
[06:44] <sipior> jusama14: you've either got another package mananger running (left synaptic running?), or you're not root
[06:44] <JasonFX> i have been lost in getting my wireless connection to work, and i followed a pretty detailed tutorial on how to do so, but i think i just need to run wireless assistant in sudo mod
[06:44] <JasonFX> e
[06:44] <jusama14> i'm using sudo, i had synaptic running
[06:44] <RainCT> posingaspopular: there's no update for gaim but if you say it's just out it would need still some days, or?
[06:44] <sipior> jusama14: all better then? does it install?
[06:45] <aoeuhtns-> I think I hosed /etc/inittab and now I don't get any consoles upon booting - how do I fix that
[06:45] <jusama14> wouldn't install through terminal
[06:45] <spieli> hey there. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is there any possibility of having Nautilus in "double pane" mode?  Kind of like in midnight commander?
[06:45] <jusama14> i'm going to try to install using synaptic
[06:45] <mcsd> posingaspopular: kstars will not link to webpages because the kfmclient is not available.  I am guessing it is because the app was built for KDE any input?
[06:45] <jusama14> java, that is
[06:45] <mcsd> is anyone familiar with kstars
[06:46] <posingaspopular> im not familiar with kstars
[06:46] <sipior> mcsd: maybe just install kfmclient?
[06:46] <Vall-k> sipior... jejeje, y find the solution... it was very easy...
[06:46] <Vall-k> dim name as process
[06:46] <Vall-k> EXEC [""]  as name
[06:46] <Vall-k> procesPID = name.id
[06:46] <posingaspopular> how do i turn off gaim/pidgin join/part messages?
[06:46] <posingaspopular> thisis really annoying
[06:46] <sipior> Vall-k: ah okay, i wouldn't have guessed that :)
[06:46] <mcsd> I could not find just the kfmclient it comes with KDE
[06:46] <JasonFX> ok, nevermind, i figured it out
[06:46] <sipior> mcsd: might be part of a network package, like kde-network or so
[06:47] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: did you delete anything from inittab?
[06:47] <Vall-k> thanks for your time :D see you next time
[06:47] <Mohd> Guys! i want to do "cool" stuff on my desktop.
[06:47] <spap> hello
[06:47] <mcsd> sipior: is there an easy way to find out what it is included in?
[06:47] <Mohd> I am open for suggestion
[06:47] <RainCT> kneeki: well I'd wait some days and see if an update for gaim comes
[06:47] <fiXXXerMet> Just tried to use Serpentine to burn a few mp4's to a CD and it told me that the files types are not supported, and to install the gstreamer package - what package is that?
[06:47] <Stormx2> Is it possible to move and resize ext3 partitions?
[06:47] <concept10> okay do I want hot chocolate, coffee or both mixed?
[06:47] <aoeuhtns-> well inittab didn't exist to begin with so I added id:4:initdefault: then ran /usr/lib/upstart/migrate-inittab
[06:47] <sipior> mcsd: not really, no. perhaps google for the name and see what turns up
[06:47] <spap> any help for creative web cam drivers?
[06:47] <Mohd> Concept10: It depends actually.
[06:48] <tzzch> Hey, I just upgraded to Feisty, and my laptops sound isn't work anymore. I tried to manually install the latest development version of Alsa, but it doesn't seem to have done anything.
[06:48] <robert98374> Anyone know where i can learn how to mount an ISo file?
[06:48] <sipior> Stormx2: yes, with some caveats
[06:48] <posingaspopular> Mohd: you probably want 3-d graphics or something
[06:48] <Stormx2> sipior, meaning?
[06:48] <sipior> robert98374: you want the loopback option: see man mount
[06:48] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: what happened to your upstart from the beggining? make sure that you have all of the required packages
[06:48] <chadmiller> What's the best video card for Feisty?  Last I paid attention, Matrox was badass and ATI was catching up.  I hear nVidia is great now, yes?  Any model in particular, as best value for the money?
[06:48] <robert98374> sipior whats that?
[06:48] <Mohd> postingaspopular: Anything, my desktop is crap at the moment.
[06:49] <sipior> Stormx2: you can resize, but only if the beginning of the partition is fixed. to move, you need to create a new partition and copy
[06:49] <posingaspopular> Mohd: try #ubuntu-effects
[06:49] <posingaspopular> or #ubuntu-desktop
[06:49] <spap> any help for creative web cam drivers? model vf0090
[06:49] <Mohd> Thanks.
[06:49] <aoeuhtns-> concept10, the system booted fine before I created /etc/inittab and ran that script
[06:50] <lbawinowns> erm sipior , I've got some straaange problems
[06:50] <sipior> robert98374: actually, you might try the nautilus menu for the image and see if it give it as an option
[06:50] <tzzch> My sound card is listed correctly with lspci | grep -i audio, as "00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SB450 HDA Audio (rev 01)"
[06:50] <lbawinowns> the thing is  - I've formated the drive like i wanted. But I still can read from the drive that I mounted!
[06:50] <robert98374> Sipior will do once the file is down
[06:50] <robert98374> *done
[06:50] <aoeuhtns-> maybe it's still using sysvinit and not upstart?  but then why didn't /etc/inittab exist to begin with?
[06:50] <robert98374> then the fun part is getting Wine to install it :-)
[06:51] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: I guess im not understanding your initial setup.  Trying to figure out why you would have to create inittab
[06:51] <fiXXXerMet> Just tried to use Serpentine to burn a few mp4's to a CD and it told me that the files types are not supported, and to install the gstreamer package - what package is that?  Or any recommendations for making an audio CD from mp4 files?
[06:51] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: all (most) linux systems should come with an inittab
[06:51] <sipior> lbawinowns: i'm not sure what you mean. you unmount the partitions you want to merge, blow them away, remake a single partition, format it, and remount, right?
[06:51] <Stormx2> sipior: Supposing I wanted to copy, how would I reconfigure ubuntu to boot from the new partition? I guess I'd need to update grub to find /boot, anything else?
[06:52] <aoeuhtns-> concept10, that's what I thought, so I'm confused why it wasn't there
[06:52] <lbawinowns> yea, but I didnt unmount before I blew them away
[06:52] <sipior> Stormx2: that would do, just change the stanza in the grub config file to point to the new partition label
[06:52] <tzzch> How can I check what version of alsa drivers I am using?
[06:52] <sipior> lbawinowns: ah
[06:52] <lbawinowns> I did umount now, though,
[06:52] <lbawinowns> should i just reblew it and recreate it ?
[06:52] <sipior> lbawinowns: that'd be best
[06:53] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: did these problems happen after a recent update?
[06:53] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: or dist-upgrade?
[06:53] <lbawinowns> the thing is that it gave an error
[06:53] <aoeuhtns-> I just installed a fresh copy of xubuntu alternate 7.04
[06:53] <lbawinowns> then  i did realized that it was still mountet
[06:53] <EDinNY> How can I tell the pid of a program I start in a script?
[06:53] <lbawinowns> oh, went fine this time :)
[06:54] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: do this.. dpkg -l | grep upstart ... make sure you have the package upstart-compat-sysv
[06:54] <sn0> explicitlyambigu cool glad it worked
[06:55] <spap> any help on creative web cam drivers? model vf0090
[06:55] <sipior> Stormx2: also, if you don't use a separate boot partition, you may have to reinstall grub so it know where to find its config file in /boot :)
[06:55] <aoeuhtns-> concept10, yep, version 0.3.8-1
[06:55] <Stormx2> sipior: That's what I mean, heh
[06:56] <jusama14> Hello, I tried to install java 1.4 plugin for firefox but i get this error
[06:56] <sipior> EDinNY: the variable "$$" gives the pid of the current process

[06:56] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: okay, that package doesnt provide inittab anyway.  You will get better help ibn #upstart if I cant help you fix this one. gimme a sec
[06:56] <Stormx2> jusama14: You need to report that
[06:56] <sipior> jusama14: don't use that one, just use the sun-java6-plugin
[06:56] <EDinNY> sipior: is there a way to pass the pid of a started program back to the calling program?
[06:56] <jusama14> sipior, how can i get that?
[06:57] <sipior> jusama14: search in synaptic
[06:57] <jack179971> ??????????????
[06:57] <Stormx2> EDinNY: Yeah. Ask in #bash
[06:57] <EDinNY> thanks
[06:57] <jusama14> sipior, yeah there is no sun java, but, I did see java in synaptic and i installed that
[06:57] <jack179971> El bu ral

[06:58] <kgx> help me...reinstalled ubuntu....windows aint booting!
[06:58] <Stormx2> kgx: Is it in the grub menu?
[06:58] <sipior> jusama14: search for sun-java6, and install the plugin
[06:59] <kgx> Stormx2: yes its there...........says loading stage2......then goes back to grub menu
[06:59] <jusama14> sipior, i found sun java 5
[06:59] <sipior> jusama14: that's good too
[06:59] <sipior> jusama14: should be sun-java5-plugin
[06:59] <jusama14> yeah, found it
[06:59] <concept10> aoeuhtns-: do you want me to paste an example (mine) inittab?
[06:59] <erUSUL> jusama14: for java6 in edgy you need to enable backports
[07:00] <jusama14> oh ok
[07:00] <GenNMX> So, am I the only one a little paranoid about getting trapped in a  vacuum-defended datacenter? No one can hear you scream.
[07:00] <aoeuhtns-> concept10, that would be great, I tried copying inittab from a Fedora install but that didn't work
[07:00] <sipior> GenNMX: bring an oxygen tank to work
[07:00] <sipior> GenNMX: not sure what your boss will say...
[07:00] <sn0> GenNMX check out the estory "When SysAdmins Ruled The Earth" on google :) id rather be in the datacentre
[07:00] <Stormx2> GenNMX: Not if your feet touch the floor :P

[07:04] <kgx> Stormx2: sda1 isnt mounted i think
[07:04] <harry_> Stormx2: so if I do sudo nautilus, select all the files in /, and make an archive, I could, if I messed up my system later, untar the archive and have everyting set back to the way it was before?
[07:04] <Stormx2> both of you, I'll brb...
[07:04] <sn0> variant greasemonkey or something ?
[07:04] <kgx> Stormx2: so what do i do??
[07:04] <Stormx2> harry_: That's correct. Be sure to preserve permissions (.tar.gz, etc)
[07:04] <variant> sn0: no, specific to web development
[07:05] <Dervius> Has anyone here been asked about stalling issues with Wubi, or am I beating a dead horse?

[07:09] <concept10> skyhook: a terminal with root/superuser permissions
[07:09] <TheCreationist> When I download the Feisty ISO, does that include any patches that have been applied up to that point?  Meaning, are the ISO's on the Ubuntu website daily builds?  Or is it still the original release?
[07:09] <skyhook> concept10: so how do I get a terminal with root/superuser permissions?
[07:09] <DPic> I need to fix my .dmrc file in my home folder because i switched my home folder and now i can't log in. it has something to do with permissions

[07:09] <^jd> i do not have a cd drive
[07:09] <^jd> how can i install the os?
[07:09] <skyhook> concept10: thanks
[07:09] <DPic> I need to fix my .dmrc file in my home folder because i switched my home folder and now i can't log in. it has something to do with permissions. how can i set the permissions correct?

[07:09] <concept10> ^jd: you cant hook any cdrom to it?
[07:09] <^jd> i tried but the bios will not recognize it

[07:10] <Braddf0rd> Hey, what's a good VNC client for Ubuntu?
[07:10] <DPic> i just moved my home folder. hwo can i fix the .dmrc file so that i can log in? it has to do with the permissions of the file i believe
[07:10] <^jd> realvnc should work
[07:11] <concept10> ^jd: hmm, not sure on that.  I would probably talk with debian guys on another install type.  What OS is on there now?
[07:11] <^jd> loco linux
[07:12] <DPic> can somebbody help me fix the permissions of the .dmrc file???
[07:12] <concept10> ^jd: you could use debootstrap, ubuntu has it but I don't know how far it has changed.
[07:12] <Sebxoii> .whois
[07:13] <^jd> i need to buy a usb cddrive
[07:13] <Braddf0rd> ^jb, is there anything else that works like that? Have you heard of Chicken of the VNC? I know works on OS X, but Linux?
[07:13] <sethk> Braddf0rd, vnc works with linux
[07:14] <sethk> Braddf0rd, the performance is dreadful, of course
[07:14] <Dervius> Nevermind, I've figured out what's wrong with my install.
[07:14] <sethk> Braddf0rd, not just on linux; vnc performance is dreadful everywhere
[07:14] <Flannel> b00gz: lsb_release -a
[07:14] <sethk> Braddf0rd, linux can also work with windows terminal services.  if that's available on the windows side, the performance is good.
[07:14] <Dervius> Ciao
[07:15] <darkhack> afternoon all
 Yeah, I'm using it FROM my mac to my Linux box, but I can't see changes that I've made. Like, it never updates...
[07:15] <bur[n] er> Braddf0rd: using CoTVNC?
[07:15] <r00tintheb0x> Hello all, i have a Intel s845wd1-e motherboard with a onboard RAID controler on it. When i create a RAID array with the hardware RAID software, and try to install RHEL, its seeing two drives instead of one. Any ideas?
[07:15] <sethk> Braddf0rd, that worked when I tried it, but that was a long time ago.
[07:15] <Braddf0rd> bur[n] er, Yes
[07:16] <sethk> r00tintheb0x, you have to tell linux to treat it as raid.  Be aware that there are controllers advertised as "RAID" which are, in fact, ordinary IDE or SATA controllers.
[07:16] <Braddf0rd> sethk, I checked everything to see if it was set up wrong... I'm dling torrents w/ the Mac, do you think that could be a problem?
[07:16] <yurimxpxman> how do I specify a terminal name with "command > tname"? How are the ttys named?

[07:17] <aurelia> in linux
[07:17] <sethk> Braddf0rd, off hand I don't see that torrents would kill vnc.  It might of course make it horribly slow, so maybe eventually it would have updated.
[07:17] <aurelia> Adres DeLuxe 2.0 for linux
[07:17] <aurelia> ?

[07:18] <aurelia> oke
[07:18] <Braddf0rd> sethk, Yeah, it might have been just INCREADABLY slow. I was using for about a minute... it would work fine on the Linux side, but it wasn't updating the screen on the Mac...
[07:19] <ItalicSquirrel> 'lo
[07:20] <Tenshi> has anyone here been successful getting postfix working with sasl authentication?
[07:20] <ItalicSquirrel> I was in here yesterday seeking help with getting ALSA working with my SB Live! 24-bit external... Good news is.. I got that working...  bad news is, I can't get restricted manager to work with the recompiled kernel... is there a way to get it to work with anything beside the default feisty installation?
[07:20] <eck> Tenshi: yes, with dovecot sasl
[07:21] <bulle> hi, how do i tell dpkg to restore the initial file permissions of the installed packages ?
[07:21] <DVS01> a number of us use ubuntu here at work, its the preferred distro
[07:21] <DVS01> really good stuff
[07:21] <aurelia> hm nothing
[07:21] <gnuts> hello, is there a specific amd64 channel?
[07:22] <Braddf0rd> what are the benefit's of using beryl?
[07:22] <Answer> gnuts: try #amd
[07:22] <bulle> Braddf0rd: eyecandy
[07:22] <^jd> i'm a windows guru but when it comes to linux i'm clueless. are there any sites that list a bunch of top apps such as firewalls, avp(virus protection), etc?
[07:22] <sgtmattbaker> Berafff0rd: well it looks nice.  although you can switch desktop easily
[07:22] <Tenshi> eck, I can't seem to send email.  The logs always simply say that sasl authentication has failed.  I've tried a billion things, but can't figure out how to diagnose further
[07:22] <ItalicSquirrel> i like the expos like effect that beryl can accomplish..
[07:22] <gnuts> thanks! is it ubuntu 64 bit specific?
[07:22] <Braddf0rd> Bulle, do you think compiz is just eye candy?
[07:22] <ItalicSquirrel> i find it very useful for photo editing in particular, with a bazillion windows to find
[07:23] <sgtmattbaker> there isn't much need for virus protection in Linux.. nor spyware.. firewalls are not a bad idea
[07:23] <bulle> Braddf0rd: no, not just eye candy, but its largely eye candy
[07:23] <eck> Tenshi: you ought to first check the permissions on the sasl socket and make sure that postfix can see it if it's in a chroot
[07:23] <Braddf0rd> bulle, is it easy to get running?
[07:23] <sgtmattbaker> normally
[07:23] <bulle> Braddf0rd: normaly yes
[07:23] <Tenshi> eck, postfix is chrooted into "/var/spool/postfix" by default, is it not?
[07:23] <Braddf0rd> bulle, and do you have to stop using compiz?
[07:23] <ItalicSquirrel> which brings me back to my query... can anyone help me get restricted-manager working?
[07:23] <eck> Tenshi: i believe so
[07:24] <fduplex> when I do 'sudo apt-get install ntp' I get a message saying that the package 'ntp' cannot be authenticated
[07:24] <sgtmattbaker> compiz pales in comparison
[07:24] <Stormx2> Is it advicable to run swap on more than 1 drive?
[07:24] <Mohd> IS it true that windows is trying to rule the world? And microsoft spies in your computer? And using windows limits your brain?
[07:24] <bulle> Braddf0rd: you can only use one window manager at a time
[07:24] <concept10> have they opened the gusty repos yet?
[07:24] <bulle> Braddf0rd: so you can have both installed, and then choose wich one to use
[07:24] <fduplex> considering i'm using the default apt sources and this is a fresh install of ubuntu, shouldn't it be authenticating that package?
[07:24] <gnuts> does anyone have a solution to the hda intel sound card problems? i've been searching all over.
[07:24] <Answer> !gutsy | concept10
[07:24] <nickspoon> Mohd: Yes, all of those things are true. Is that all?
[07:24] <Tenshi> eck, what authentication backend are you using?  (i.e. sasldb, pam, etc...)
[07:24] <ubotu> concept10: 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
[07:24] <bulle> mind, compiz and beryl are joining again, so soon there is only going to be one
[07:24] <eck> Tenshi: dovecot is using pam
[07:25] <sharperguy> what permission number do i use for -rwxr-xr---?
[07:25] <Braddf0rd> bulle, is beryl any better than compiz? Maybe more customizable?
[07:25] <eck> i think pam is probably the way to go, since you can share it with other services later on
[07:25] <concept10> Answer: do you know?
[07:25] <Luis07> hi, can someone tell me how to format in FAT16 a MicroSD card located in "/media/SD" using fdisk?
[07:25] <Answer> concept10: did you look at the links ubotu told you
[07:25] <sgtmattbaker> Braddf0rd: yes beryl is much more than compiz (afaik)
[07:25] <Mohd> Nickspoon: I was just wondering, i was introduced to Linux by a person who had these weird ideas...
[07:25] <MIchael____> how do you open a .run file?  ClamAV keeps trying to open it but has an error.
[07:25] <Tenshi> eck, you keep mentioning dovecot.  I'm using the "sasl2-bin" package.  What does dovecot have to do with it?
[07:25] <A[D] minS> why when i play gmplayer i get this error
[07:25] <A[D] minS> Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.
[07:25] <eck> Luis07: fdisk is only for partitioning, not formatting
[07:26] <concept10> Answer: if you dont know the answer, dont msg someone
[07:26] <eck> Tenshi: dovecot is another sasl implementation (you are using the cyrus implementation)
[07:26] <sgtmattbaker> Mohd: where did you hear all those things?  Windows isn't great and I am sure they are trying to spyware you to death with their phone home stuff but using Windows does not neccesarily limit your mind.  you can be a fool and use Linux if you never delve any deeper
[07:26] <nickspoon> Mohd: Well, you'll be pleased to discover that not everybody who uses Linux is as crazy.
[07:26] <Toma-> !seveas
[07:26] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[07:26] <bulle> Braddf0rd: yes, beryl comes with lots more plugins, and is way more configurable
[07:26] <Tenshi> eck, which package provides that?
[07:26] <mc44> nickspoon: yes they are
[07:26] <nicx2> hello.. i have ubuntu 7.04..  and i try'd 2 install the ipv6.. but and i dont know why..
[07:26] <nickspoon> mc44: Oh, right, so they are.
[07:26] <nicx2> its just dos'nt work
[07:27] <isilloke> oy
[07:27] <Braddf0rd> bulle, sgtmattbaker, how long does it take to set up? I'm a noob, only had feisty for about... a week now
[07:27] <eck> Tenshi: what imap daemon are you using? i'm only using it because i'm using dovecot imap as well, which makes things simpler for me
[07:27] <nicx2> i try to do the command
[07:27] <Luis07> eck, oops sorry, didn't know that... then, how can I format it?
[07:27] <isilloke> anybody know where the programs to be launched at startup are listed?
[07:27] <nicx2> iptunnel add ipv6tb mode sit remote 193.113.58.80 ttl 64
[07:27] <Mohd> Barddf0rd: I had Feisty yesterday. I never used linux before yesterday :P
[07:27] <nicx2> and the output is "ioctl: No such device"
[07:27] <nickspoon> isilloke: /etc/init.d
[07:27] <Tenshi> eck, yeah, I'm using dovecot imaps atm
[07:28] <bulle> Braddf0rd: install it, and start beryl-manager
[07:28] <bulle> Braddf0rd: thats about all i had to do
[07:28] <arash> any1 remember me from 20 minutes ago :p?
[07:28] <isilloke> thanks
[07:28] <Mohd> Its seems to me its not as hard as people think. Its actually simple. I dont know why people are scared of it and says that it cause heac-aches.
[07:28] <basz> isilloke: or do you mean the ones in gnome?
[07:28] <eck> Luis07: i believe the package is dosfstools
[07:28] <nickspoon> If you mean the ones in GNOME, Preferences->Sessions.
[07:28] <fiXXXerMet> Any reason that Ubuntu would be transfering files from a network file server (win2K) extremely slow?  (over 2 hours for 200 mb)
[07:28] <eck> Tenshi: there are docs on the dovecot wiki on doing postfix + sasl
[07:28] <isilloke> yes gnome
[07:29] <lbawinowns> Anyways, someone guide me to upgrade side for dapper drake
[07:29] <Braddf0rd> bulle, lolz, ok. I'll go get it. Do I get it from... Synapticpm?
[07:29] <aubade> What filesystem does everyone recommend, ext3 or reiserfs?
[07:29] <sgtmattbaker> Mohd: there are some things in linux that require a significant amount of know-how, although for basic stuff no it is not hard
[07:29] <sgtmattbaker> aubade: I use ext3 just because that was the Ubuntu default (I think)
[07:29] <basz> isilloke: like nickspoon said; system->preferences->sessions
[07:29] <lbawinowns> aubade: dunno, but since ext3 is standard I think it's better. But I hardly know anything about file systems
[07:29] <eck> Tenshi: here are some notes I made when setting it up http://wiki.eklitzke.org/doku.php?id=tech:dovecot
[07:29] <Stormx2> Anyone here have around 400gb disk space give or take (100gb) and would mind sharing how they have it partitioned?
[07:29] <isilloke> thanks again
[07:30] <variant> sn0: it's called "web developer" as a matter of fact :D one of the most utterly awesome extension there is
[07:30] <lbawinowns> !upgrade > lbawinowns
[07:30] <Tenshi> eck, yeah, I've followed a bijillion different pages of docs.  Going back to the socket, is a file created when you start the saslauthd that points to the socket?
[07:30] <nicx2> i try today to install ipv6 on my linux (ubuntu 7.04) and some point i try to do this command - iptunnel add ipv6tb mode sit remote 193.113.58.80 ttl 64 - and the output was "ioctl: No such device" i dont know what to do now
[07:31] <variant> nicx2: ipv6 is installed and enabled by default
[07:31] <nicx2> so why that command
[07:31] <bulle> aubade: stick to ext3 unless you have specific reasons not to
[07:31] <medfly> if i want to install build-essential and i dont have an internet connection, what can i do?
[07:31] <nicx2> dont work
[07:31] <nicx2> ?
[07:31] <variant> nicx2: does your service provider support ipv6?
[07:31] <nicx2> no.. its a tunnel
[07:31] <sgtmattbaker> aubade: I really no nothing about filesystems but I hear Reiser fs is more failure prone.. might be wrong though
[07:31] <Answer> nicx2: I think you need to have the name of your ethernet card.  ioctl is looking for a device
[07:31] <Mohd> Just for the sake to silence one of my work partners forever. Can you "hack" using Linux: Ubuntu?
[07:32] <nicx2> how can i do it?
[07:32] <isilloke> mdfly i think it's on the live cd
[07:32] <Braddf0rd> Do I get beryl from Synaptic Package Manager??? If so where would it be, what category?
[07:32] <aubade> Yeah, it's definetely more opt for corruption.
[07:32] <eck> Tenshi: i believe that the socket is created by the sasl daemon
[07:32] <sgtmattbaker> Mohd: what do you mean "hack"?
[07:32] <medfly> Mohd: you can modify code with it, as with probably any other OS.
[07:32] <MIchael____> I went to http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/downloads-installer.php to download the program to identify my modem chipset.  Following instructions, I can't get cnxinstall.run to run.  What should I do?
[07:32] <jenda> Any tips on playing a VCD from an .iso ?
[07:32] <variant> nicx2: you didn't specify the device
[07:32] <aubade> ext3 just seems so horrible about reservation, drops 6G from my 300G volume's total size.
[07:32] <tete235> how can i remove the gaim without uninstalling ubuntu-desktop? :/
[07:32] <medfly> if i want to install build-essential and i dont have an internet connection, what can i do?
[07:32] <Mohd> Sgtmattbaker: As attacking another computers, breaking into websites, and enter other files.
[07:33] <nicx2> so
[07:33] <nicx2> how can i do that?
[07:33] <Braddf0rd> WHERE do I get Beryl???
[07:33] <Answer> nicx2: type ifconfig and figure out which ethernet device you want ot use.  probably eth0 or eth1
[07:33] <sethk> medfly, download it on another machine, burn it to a cd
[07:33] <sgtmattbaker> Mohd: don't quote me but I am pretty sure you could do that from any OS or any computer
[07:33] <nicx2> the command
[07:33] <nicx2> /sbin/modprobe ipv6
[07:33] <nicx2> work.
[07:33] <nicx2> and
[07:33] <sethk> medfly, or a usb drive, or whatever.
[07:33] <fsckit> can someone tell me if a game/full screen app isn't responding, is there a way to change priority to my task manager or kill it somehow like in windows?
[07:33] <nicx2> also
[07:33] <nicx2> iptunnel
[07:33] <nicx2> route
[07:33] <nicx2> ifconfig
[07:33] <medfly> sethk: how do i "burn it" ?
[07:33] <erUSUL> !enter
[07:33] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:33] <Mohd> Sgtmattbaker: I told him so.
[07:33] <eck> tete235: you can't, just reinstall the package before you upgrade to the next major release
[07:33] <sgtmattbaker> Mohd: what did he say
[07:33] <medfly> sethk: i mean, what do i need?
[07:34] <sethk> medfly, there is a package file.  The thing is, build-essential is a metapackage, so you would also need all the packages it references.
[07:34] <fsckit> anyone?
[07:34] <sethk> medfly, if your box doesn't have internet, ubuntu isn't the best distro for you to be using.
[07:34] <medfly> sethk: how do i get the package file?
[07:34] <Mohd> sgtmattbaker: He said windows wont allow you to do certain hacking moves, windows is limited. And he asks if it was EASIER in ubuntu or in general Linux. (( Hacking is stupid to be honest. ))
[07:34] <medfly> sethk: its for a friend. hes online too, but the other computer isnt, i guess.
[07:35] <basz> Braddf0rd: sudo apt-get install beryl-manager. did you try to find some howto yet?
[07:35] <sethk> medfly, you can download it using a browser from the repository URLs
[07:35] <medfly> sethk: from where?
[07:35] <sethk> medfly, put the ubuntu one on line temporarily to install it.
[07:35] <sethk> medfly, you can see the URLs in /etc/apt/sources.lst
[07:35] <fakezeta> jenda, mount -o loop -t iso9660 filename.iso /mnt/iso
[07:35] <medfly> ah, right
[07:35] <Braddf0rd> basz, I'm on the Beryl website right now.... thx 4 that.
[07:35] <sgtmattbaker> Mohd: Windows probably does make it harder.. but hacking regardless is dumb if you mean screwing other people's work up
[07:35] <sethk> medfly, sorry, sources.list, not sources.lst
[07:35] <fakezeta> jenda, and play it with VLC
[07:35] <Heinus_Anus> hokay so
[07:35] <fsckit> can someone tell my why my xorg is using nvidia drivers but my kde video setting says i'm using nv?
[07:36] <Heinus_Anus> can you create a network login for ubuntu so it can login to windows 2003 server?
[07:36] <Wriest> Hey my desktop is black and I can't get any wallpapers to load?
[07:36] <^jd> my desktop tower is black too
[07:36] <Fylk> Hey, is Pidgin2 final added to universe yet?
[07:36] <variant> Heinus_Anus: yes, it's a little complicated though (assuming you mean login to a windows active directory domain)
[07:36] <Heinus_Anus> yes
[07:36] <Heinus_Anus> exactly
[07:37] <c_lisp> hey I can't get window borders on beryl I type emberald && beryl
[07:37] <eck> fsckit: because you probably are using nv, check your Xorg logs to see what driver it actually used
[07:37] <Heinus_Anus> do you have a link or anything?
[07:37] <variant> Heinus_Anus: there is info available via googld
[07:37] <Wriest> And When I go to open a page it also turns black I have to minimize and then reopen them?
[07:37] <variant> Heinus_Anus: google, ubuntu active directory login
[07:37] <c_lisp> so I have 3d but no window boarders anybody know how I can fix that sympatic can't install beryl-manager
[07:37] <Heinus_Anus> I didn't find anything that way, only samba shares...
[07:37] <variant> c_lisp: use beryl-manager
[07:37] <Heinus_Anus> oh, ok
[07:37] <Heinus_Anus> gotchya
[07:37] <Heinus_Anus> nce way of phrasing it, guess i phrased it wrong
[07:38] <Mohd> Where can i get programs files? I want to add a skin to XMMS player, and i need to find this program file to add the skin to it. (( Just like in Microsoft windows XP. ))
[07:38] <Heinus_Anus> how about Mac's, is it possible as well I assume?
[07:38] <jenda> fakezeta: thanks for the tips. However, it doesn't show any picture and the sound is really jerky (just bits, really)
[07:38] <basz> c_lisp: are you using nvidia-glx?
[07:38] <basz> nice one... :(
[07:38] <kingsuntest> whois kingsun
[07:39] <isilloke> mohd ubuntu doesn't work with prog files, you want packages
[07:39] <eck> Mohd: don't use xxms, it hasn't been under active development for years :-P
[07:39] <eck> xmms, rather
[07:39] <fakezeta> jenda, start vlc from the terminal and see if there is any log
[07:39] <Caris> hello everybody. i got an acer notebook and just installed 7.04...wanted to tune up my hd to the max UDMA level but it only runs at UDMA /33 but its capable of UDMA 100. hdparm is not working anymore it seems...need some assistence
[07:39] <variant> eck: thats not true
[07:39] <jenda> fakezeta: and the same result whether I try it as a DVD, a VCD or a directory
[07:39] <jenda> ok
[07:39] <scapor> How can I print a HUGE image on multiple pages (A4) in Ubuntu ? Is there a tool to have a big image cut automaticcally ad printed on multiple pages ?
[07:39] <Luis07> I have a SD card mounted in "/media/SD", how can I discover its module in "/dev"? (ex.: "/" is hda)
[07:39] <Mohd> eck: do you have suggestion? I've been using FooBar which is an awesome program, But i cant find something works in Linux similiar.
[07:39] <rapha> Hi all!
[07:39] <rapha> Someone help me please!!
[07:40] <eck> variant: maybe it has been, but most of the developers left for xmms2 or other projects
[07:40] <Answer> !ask | rapha
[07:40] <ubotu> rapha: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:40] <variant> eck: i know, still kept up to date with securiyt afaik
[07:40] <rapha> Oh okay sorry
[07:40] <fakezeta> Luis07, df -k :)
[07:40] <rapha> I just did upgrade from Edgy to Feisty and now my computer is broken
[07:40] <scapor> Luis07: 'df' in terminal or in the system menu you choose the systemmonitor
[07:40] <fakezeta> Luis07, or mount
[07:40] <Answer> rapha: can you be more specific on how it is broken
[07:40] <eck> Mohd: i use mpd + sonata, but there's a lot of good audio players out there
[07:40] <dustin> I installed acetoneiso and when i go to convert a .daa file to an iso I go through all the necessary steps but when i hit ok after all the steps are complete the program does nothing
[07:40] <basz> rapha: broken? in two, or what?
[07:41] <rapha> When booting it says "The program apt-get is not installed. Install it by typing apt-get install apt"
[07:41] <dustin> is there another program like acetoneiso
[07:41] <rapha> broke then or however you say in English
[07:41] <eck> Mohd: if you like the xmms look/feel you might try beep media player
[07:41] <basz> rapha: you need to apt-get apt? :|
[07:41] <jenda> fakezeta: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19151/
[07:41] <basz> rapha: that's new to me...
[07:41] <rapha> basz, sounds insensible to me but it does say so
[07:41] <qvvx> I have a feisty installation without Internet access, and I need to install a bunch of packages there with dependencies. What is the easiest way to do that? I could download the debs one by one on a different PC and then install them, but it is too time-consuming.
[07:42] <medfly> sethk: ok. im looking on that server, but i cant find the packages. where are they?
[07:42] <dustin> feisty?
[07:42] <Mohd> Eck: I want something that doesent consume much resources and has a good output quality.
[07:42] <jenda> fakezeta: it obviously first tries it as a DVD, and fails... but that doesn't cause the problem - I don't understand the rest of it.
[07:42] <Mohd> I dont want much comlicated players.
[07:42] <ducky> medfly: google ubuntu packages
[07:42] <isilloke> qvvx you can turn a dvd into a depot
[07:43] <medfly> oh, scary, i see people from other channels in here.
[07:43] <qvvx> isilloke: don't have the dvd, the system was installed from a desktop cd
[07:43] <sys02-rsa> i just did a base install how can i install the basic xorg11 server thingy?
[07:43] <dustin> apt-get install gdm
[07:43] <Guitrokr> i used NTFS configuration tool and it created two drives that always mount now and that i can't unmount unless i log in as root, how can i get rid of them so they don't mount anymore?
[07:43] <basz> rapha: just a sec
[07:43] <rapha> Are you guys still talking to me? Have I said anything wrong?
[07:43] <eck> Mohd: this is what I use, there are a lot of other clients that you can use with mpd as well (mpd is the actual backend that plays the music) http://sonata.berlios.de/index.html
[07:43] <fakezeta> jenda, it seems a vlc problem. Not related to some bad OS config
[07:43] <rapha> Oh okay sure Basz
[07:43] <peery_> hey everyone... is there any bugs in Feisty related to wireless. My wireless worked in Dapper and when I up-graded to Feisty I get nothing
[07:43] <jenda> hmm
[07:43] <Luis07> fakezeta, thank you
[07:43] <isilloke> i mean, on another computer, you can dld a lot of pakages, burn em, and declare it as a depot
[07:44] <fakezeta> Luis07, you're welcome :)
[07:44] <qvvx> isilloke: great, is there a link to a howto?
[07:44] <fakezeta> jenda, can you try a different program?
[07:44] <EmxBA> hi jenda
[07:44] <captaintrips> this is odd
[07:44] <jenda> fakezeta: working on it
[07:44] <jenda> hello EmxBA
[07:45] <isilloke> only in french
[07:45] <Guitrokr> does anyone know how to stop  certain volumes from mounting automatically?
[07:45] <EmxBA> I was just reading your meeting log on wiki... many questions are cleary answered! thanks!
[07:45] <fakezeta> jenda, I'm not a VLC expert. Sorry :)
[07:45] <EmxBA> Guitrokr: edit /etc/fstab
[07:45] <qvvx> isilloke: is it the 'jigdo' thing you're talking about?
[07:45] <captaintrips> i left my comp to go do some work in the yard, came back to a black screen and a unresponsive keyboard, so i hit reset and then grub was missing, so i reinstalled grub and got ubuntu running again, then beryl crashes after it starts up and i have to reload it, wtf?
[07:45] <Guitrokr> i'll give it a shot EmxBA
[07:45] <peery_> anyone else have problems with wireless in feisty?
[07:45] <ducky> Guittokr: remove the entries from the etc/fstab file
[07:45] <dustin> does anybody know of any programs that are simular to acetoneiso that work under ubuntu
[07:45] <EmxBA> how to install pidgin?
[07:45] <basz> rapha: try 'dpkg -l apt'
[07:46] <fakezeta> jenda, just try to mount it as I say and open it as a vcd
[07:46] <basz> rapha: what does it say?
[07:46] <eck> EmxBA: compile it ;-)
[07:46] <EmxBA> or upgrade gaim (which is the same)? there are not updated gaim nor pidgin in repos (gutsy/feisty)
[07:46] <captaintrips> i still use gaim and it works fine
[07:46] <Mohd> I see..
[07:46] <Mohd> Eck: I just got Linux yesterday. So do i download the source or the packages?
[07:46] <jenda> fakezeta: I'm trying - I've never tried other programs for VCDs than VLC :)
[07:46] <eck> EmxBA: i compiled beta7 when it was released, but there isn't much difference between the version of gaim shipped with feisty, other than the icons
[07:47] <eck> Mohd: no, you just apt-get install mpd sonata
[07:47] <Guitrokr> and does anyone know how to get permissinos to write to an ntfs external drive?
[07:47] <Jay2> anyone using reiserFS over ext3?
[07:47] <Mohd> Eck: okay, thanks.
[07:47] <EmxBA> eck: nevermind, I know that. but... I want the newest version for some reason :)
[07:47] <Guitrokr> one time i logged in and was able to do it, and then the next time i logged in it was denied again and never got it to happen again
[07:47] <EmxBA> Guitrokr: ntfs-3g is what you want
[07:47] <fakezeta> jenda, I also use VLC but it's years since I don't use VCD :P
[07:47] <rapha> basz, dpkg: command not found
[07:47] <Guitrokr> its a program?
[07:47] <jenda> fakezeta: hehe :)
[07:47] <EmxBA> Guitrokr: yes
[07:47] <ducky> Guitrokr: you need to get a fuse driver, just google, there is lots of info on that
[07:47] <eck> EmxBA: if you apt-get build-dep gaim you'll have everything you need to compile it
[07:47] <captaintrips> i thought writing to ntfs from linux was a really bad idea and resulted in corrupt partitions
[07:48] <Guitrokr> k thax EmxBA, two problems solved in less than a minute thanx!
[07:48] <doojin> hi guys
[07:48] <EmxBA> thanks eck
[07:48] <doojin> Does ubuntu have amd64 version now?
[07:48] <medfly> yes

[07:49] <joel> hay alguien en spaniol
[07:49] <Mohd> Eck: Thanks Eck, you have been really helpfull, i hope i can live to the day that i might able to pay you back.
[07:49] <dxdemetriou> Is there any difference on Feisty about what priority each program will start? I don't know why, but every time is different the priority or each program
[07:49] <EmxBA> you may use these howtos: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/02/12/usb-ubuntu-tutorial-for-linux-users/ and just modify it for feisty
[07:49] <Mohd> be able*
[07:49] <eck> Mohd: haha, don't worry about it
[07:49] <isilloke> qvvx : also ther http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/
[07:49] <Answer> dxdemetriou: command "top" will show you nice priorities
[07:49] <EmxBA> Guitrokr: what's the problem with wireless? what's your card/chipset?
[07:50] <doojin> EmxBA : I mean debian had a usb installer
[07:50] <qvvx> isilloke: thanks
[07:50] <EmxBA> (broadcom I suppose) :)

[07:51] <Guitrokr> i have a dell miniPCI card and use the bcm43xx driver, its loaded fine, and it regonizes ALL my wireless networks and gives me that there are good signals for them, but attempting connections with them will just try for a long time and then say it couldn't be established
[07:51] <Guitrokr> and the networks aren't encrypted
[07:51] <Jakke77> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROMjlYXLYT0 Internet is for Porn Gnome Edition

[07:56] <nox-Hand> rambo3: thanks
[07:57] <captaintrips> huh, found lots of people complaining about wlancfg: Bad address.. but no responses

[07:58] <captaintrips> linux hates my wifi, getting the same errors on both my laptop and desktop, what am i missing?
[07:59] <eternalswd> anyone know why a mapping on mouse buttons via xmodmap wouldn't work after a restart.  I ran xmodmap -pp and the mapping is listed correctly but it hasn't caused a change.  It was working before X crashed on me and I had to do a hard reboot because I couldn't access the tty
[07:59] <timewriter> is bsd a unix based system ?
[07:59] <captaintrips> i would think so
[07:59] <captaintrips> but not sure
[07:59] <rambo3> capgadget, is it a native driver?
[07:59] <rambo3> timewriter, yes
[07:59] <timewriter> thanks
[07:59] <superante> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19152/     why??
[07:59] <captaintrips> i have used bsd b4 and it is very similar. so i would say yes
[08:00] <UnluckyMike> capatintrips: what kind of wireless card
[08:00] <dxdemetriou> Can I set the firefox/galeon/epiphany to show .rss? The konqueror do it
[08:00] <Evan_> is there a linux equivilent to imovie or windows movie maker?
[08:00] <captaintrips> d-link 802.11 abg
[08:00] <captaintrips> let me do lspci and ill give u full info
[08:00] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: what kind of chipset?
[08:00] <captaintrips> 02:09.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5005G 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
[08:00] <eternalswd> Evan_, perhaps avidemux is what your after?
[08:00] <Evan_> dunno
[08:01] <Evan_> is it similar to windows movie maker or imovie?
[08:01] <rambo3> superante, did you try sudo apt-get build-dep alsa-utils ?
[08:01] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: have you installed ath_pci
[08:01] <fotoflo_> what is "data seg size" from ulimit -a?
[08:01] <superante> yes
[08:01] <Evan_> i'm trying to switch my constantly spyware invested friends to ubuntu
[08:01] <captaintrips> not unless it comes with ubuntu
[08:01] <captaintrips> let me c
[08:01] <superante> i try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[08:01] <captaintrips> dont think so
[08:01] <dxdemetriou> Evan_, did you tried it with wine?
[08:02] <Evan_> no
[08:02] <superante> rambo3: with sudo i dont' have the last alsa...
[08:02] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: atheros cards work in ubuntu feisty with little configuration, i think the driver is in the restriced repository somewhere
[08:02] <preaction> timewriter: BSD is the Berkeley Standard Distribution of Unix, so yes. A history of BSD: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/opensources/book/kirkmck.html
[08:02] <superante> rambo3: and i have problem with audio...
[08:03] <captaintrips> yeah, in the restricted manager its checked
[08:03] <timewriter> preaction i know that
[08:03] <captaintrips> "atheros hardware access layer"
[08:03] <timewriter> but i dont know if bsd is from unix familly
[08:03] <dxdemetriou> Evan_, some times I can't do something with avidemux I use the virtua-dub-mod with wine
[08:03] <eternalswd> Evan_, I'm not exactly sure how powerful avidemux is but I've used it for combining and cutting clips.  You might want to also take a look at Ubuntu Studio which is an Ubuntu based distro geared toward media
[08:03] <captaintrips> status "In Use"
[08:03] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: have you installed linux-restricted-modules
[08:03] <captaintrips> yes
[08:03] <preaction> timewriter: it's not "From unix family" it IS Unix, read the link. </off-topic>
[08:04] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: run iwconfig and see if your interface is listed
[08:04] <rambo3> timewriter, i think its a fork of unix
[08:04] <timewriter> ok
[08:04] <timewriter> thanks
[08:04] <captaintrips> yes, listed as ath0
[08:04] <nickste> what packages do I need to install to be able to use the "make" command?
[08:04] <MIchael____> !fsck
[08:04] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[08:04] <Myrtti> build-essential
[08:05] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: your card is installed and usable, you just have to configure it
[08:05] <jeff_> Hey all.... I'm new to ubuntu and linux in general...  Wondering how wine works? Can I install windows freeware (such as ccleaner and run it?)
[08:05] <dxdemetriou> Evan_, the lives seem ok, but if you want it with good appearance the wine is the only solution :)
[08:05] <fsckit> when in doubt, fsck it
[08:05] <captaintrips> ok, how do i do that? lol
[08:05] <nickste> build essential? Is that gcc build essential?
[08:05] <walkintome> hi all. When launching gnome-preferences, I recieve this error in terminal. (gnome-compiz-preferences:11463): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: gnome_vfs_get_uri_from_local_path: assertion `g_path_is_absolute (local_full_path)' failed. What does this mean and is it bad ?
[08:05] <Myrtti> jeff_: why on earth would you want ccleaner?
[08:05] <basz> jeff: ccleaner? isn't that for cleaning spyware and stuff?
[08:05] <Myrtti> nickste: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[08:05] <preaction> jeff_: depends on the program usually. check the winehq.com compatibility lists.
[08:06] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: If i'm not mistaken you should be able to do it through the network manager applet on your panel
[08:06] <nickste> ta
[08:06] <captaintrips> ok, ill check it out
[08:06] <wakeup_> einmal zu win: Error 12: Invalid device requested
[08:06] <wakeup_> sry
[08:06] <jeff_> ok thanks...
[08:06] <compengi> nickste, you don't need to install anything to be able to use "make" while compiling
[08:06] <PhoenixUK> :D
[08:06] <OuZo> i type man units > man_units.txt to get the man pages to a text file, some of the characters do not show properly, how can i fix this? thanks
[08:07] <captaintrips> when i go to network tools it says unknown connection (ath0)
[08:07] <compengi> nickste, except for the for the libraries and dependencies that you need to build the program
[08:07] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: ath0 is the atheros interface
[08:07] <nickste> I use the make command, and I get a whole lot of errors saying implicit declaration of function
[08:07] <UnluckyMike> just add your settings to it
[08:07] <captaintrips> how? this doesnt seem like the right window, is there a command to get the right one?
[08:08] <compengi> nickste, did you start with "./configure" to start compiling?
[08:08] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: you can configure it though System>Admin>Network
[08:08] <nickste> ermmm... nope. instructions just say to type make into the terminal, and then make install
[08:08] <gluttony_> #ubuntuhelp
[08:08] <captaintrips> thats where i am and configure is greyed out
[08:08] <gluttony_> damn...
[08:08] <compengi> nickste, this couldn't be
[08:08] <Myrtti> nickste: what are you trying to compile, anyway?
[08:08] <preaction> OuZo: read "man man", in the TIPS section there's something about how to get a plain-text output from man
[08:08] <captaintrips> ok, now its not

[08:09] <Mohd> "The daimond throne"
[08:09] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: make sure roaming mode is off
[08:09] <OuZo> preaction: thanks
[08:09] <Tenshi> eck, I got it.  It turns out that the sasl_domain =  was set to something other than blank
[08:09] <Myrtti> /me takes a step back

[08:09] <gluttony_> ok, used to know how, but i seem to have forgoten. how do i change to a differnt channel of this server?
[08:09] <Mohd> Myrtti: You use openRPG by any chance?
[08:10] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: did you enter your secutiry info
[08:10] <preaction> gluttony_: /join #channel
[08:10] <compengi> nickste, without sudo and second are you in the right folder?
[08:10] <captaintrips> and now the configure button is grey again
[08:10] <captaintrips> yes, i did
[08:10] <duck3y> gluttony_: join #name
[08:10] <captaintrips> i think
[08:10] <captaintrips> lol
[08:10] <Myrtti> Mohd: since I've got no idea what that is...
[08:10] <captaintrips> thats weird, i have to put it on eth0 for the config button to show up
[08:11] <gluttony_> is the ubuntu beginner help on this server, cuz its not taking me to a differnt server
[08:11] <captaintrips> but it doesnt do anything when its on either ath0 or wifi0

[08:11] <KarenCooke> hi - ive just booted feisty using pxe because feisty wont recognise my sata dvd drive, but now it wont recognise my sata hd either - its an intel 975 based board with a jmicron something or other - any ideas?
[08:11] <captaintrips> they both say unknown interface
[08:11] <UnluckyMike> captaintrips: ath0 is the actual interface wifi0 will be there but you don't need to mess with it
[08:11] <nickste> compengi: I'm in the right folder, and same result when dropping sudo
[08:11] <captaintrips> ok
[08:11] <UnluckyMike> click on the ath0
[08:12] <nickste> it doesn't have a configure file in the folder... not sure if that matters?

[08:14] <Rigel> oh, and then Kill
[08:14] <Rigel> Thank you :)
[08:14] <preaction> Rigel: "top" might be a better idea than "ps", it's interactive. there's also a gnome window for it too, but i don't know where
[08:14] <duck3y> Rigel: kill <pid>
[08:14] <nickste> yeah, it did work.
[08:14] <captaintrips> only network one is network tools

[08:22] <captaintrips> ok, roaming mode is enabled, and when i disable it wants a ssid and password, which i dont have. i just want to scan

[08:24] <ConstyXIV> the gksudo is if it needs sudo
[08:24] <chimby> I have it checked and a query w/ space still fails....remove the space and it works. Anyone else experience this?

[08:33] <nickweb> i cant run apt-get because it says theres a rpoblem with those.
[08:34] <nickweb> if i run apt-get instal -f it throws up errors
[08:34] <vox754> vdavid23, you need the i386 one, you just need to make it work... that's it. Good luck with that, since I lack experience.
[08:34] <duck3y> Jay2: mkfs
[08:35] <nickweb> I've tried deleting the /var/cache/apt/archive of the packages, and in the /usr/bin/ .so files relating to it, but apt-get always exits with an error code of (1)
[08:35] <vdavid23> Do you know of any other links for this ISO? I think the one I am using is corrupt?

[08:38] <doxid> Hi, i am just curious. How do i change the "max resolution" in the tool "Screen Resolution" in ubuntu.
[08:38] <Nu11> I just installed ubuntu-server.  Grub won't boot, it just crashes, but thats not really the problem right now.  I booted it with the install disk to try to fix the boot loader, but apparently there is something else thats causing problems.  Whenever I try to install anything, I get the error "Unknown terminal: bterm; Check the TERM environment variable...."  it's set corretly, so I don't know what's wrong.  Any ideas?

[08:39] <UnluckyMike> timewriter: the jmicron controller is doo-doo, for some reason mine only runs the ide for boot devices
[08:39] <|ericsson|> Sodki: shouldn't CTRL+ALT+F1 work?
[08:39] <wndrslave> hi folks, i've spent some time researching and setting up networking and hosts on my newly installed fiesty server but wone thing i can't seem to figure out is how to get it so the box is available over the network via it's subdomain name (i.e. my box is named tomithy but i can only access it via it's fill domain name tomithy.mydomain.com etc) thanks in advance if you can give me any info on this
[08:39] <Sodki> cables, thank you
[08:39] <timewriter> then ill leave it like it is
[08:39] <timewriter> ide mode
[08:39] <cables> |ericsson|, Sodki, that will work, but X will still start.

[08:41] <|ericsson|> !sound | ibbuntu

[08:47] <cables> psusi, yeah... I didn't have that in Edgy and I don't have that in Windows
[08:48] <timewriter> UnluckyMike i know that googles does , but im not an such a good english speaker

[08:49] <timewriter> well , ill leave it like it is
[08:49] <timewriter> as long as everything runs smooth
[08:50] <UnluckyMike> ide mode would be for IDE based hard drives, ahci isprobally your sata
[08:50] <xijio> what is the app that you run 'make install' in that watches all the files that are installed and makes a .deb for easy uninstallation later
[08:50] <MrMcFood> checkinstall?
[08:50] <xijio> thats the one, thanks MrMcFood
[08:50] <doxid> please, anyone know if there is any way to change the maximum resolution in the GUI "screen resolution" or if there is any way at all to change the resolution in ubuntu. xorg.conf dosn't seam to help.
[08:50] <timewriter> uhm
[08:50] <xijio> doxid: xrandr will tell you available resolutions
[08:51] <MrMcFood> i had that problem. now i use an unsupported graphics driver, but it lets me change now
[08:51] <doxid> thank you! :D
[08:51] <xijio> doxid: if the one you want isn't in there you need to add a modeline to your xorg.conf
[08:51] <MrMcFood> i used to have a modeline, but it wasn't right for my computer
[08:51] <Sodki> MFen, I also use liferea

[08:52] <MFen> Sodki: it doesn't crash on you constantly?
[08:53] <MrMcFood> gotta make apt finish what it was doing. it's really irritating like that
[08:53] <doxid> xrandr says that 1024 is the maximum xijio, but i know the driver supports even higher (up to 2k). is there any way to see what driver i am useing? just to see that i am using the correct one, or any way to change the max resolution above recomended.

[09:01] <afflux> hasn't there been a script for pasting some output to a nopaste-service?
[09:01] <MenZa> Nah, you just need to learn the basics of it, EhPrettyEasy :)
[09:01] <x0x> EhPrettyEasy nope its really easy to use
[09:01] <fangorious> EhPrettyEasy: seems easy to me, is your hardware supported?
[09:01] <CheshireViking> EhPrettyEasy, it gets easier the more you use it
[09:01] <MenZa> !someone | Woodrag
[09:01] <ubotu> Woodrag: 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?
[09:01] <kbrooks> EhPrettyEasy, ubuntu, maybe ##windows ca n give you objective debates.
[09:01] <EhPrettyEasy> Hmh
 Yes, i pasted the xorg.conf in a PM

[09:04] <Michael__> Gluttony, please clarify:  Are you trying to installl through Synaptic or terminal (command line)?
[09:04] <fangorious> x0x: probably depends more on the phone than ubuntu, if the phone supports being a DUN devkice via the datacable, you should be able to configure it as a modem. but i have experience with that so i can't be of any specific help
[09:04] <EhPrettyEasy> No I'm not trying to install.
[09:04] <EhPrettyEasy> I just ran the Live CD, the commands are different
[09:05] <fangorious> EhPrettyEasy: ubuntu tries to not require command line for using/administering the system
[09:05] <fangorious> EhPrettyEasy: but unix shells are for more powerful than windows shells
[09:05] <EhPrettyEasy> I need the terminal
[09:05] <x0x> fangorious oh ok but what is dun devkice?
[09:05] <gluttony> Michael__: i was using Applications>Add/Remove. i was wondering if it was the same as Synaptic
[09:05] <x0x> oh
[09:05] <ward__> if i try to run full screen opengl (anything) my screen goes black and i can only see my mouse, any suggestions?
[09:05] <fangorious> Dial-Up Networking
[09:06] <x0x> its dun device is supported :D
[09:06] <fangorious> gluttony: no, that's gnome-app-install
[09:06] <rogue780> I'm having an problem with APT. I installed vmware-player an every time since when I try to use apt to install anything it tried to continue installing vmware. I've tried removing vmware and I get the same problem. I don't know what to do. the apt output is at http://www.pastebin.ca/471116 please help
[09:06] <x0x> i am connected internet via it
[09:06] <CheshireViking> EhPrettyEasy, the commands will be different, its two different languages, it'd be like you comparing Windows and CP/M
[09:06] <Zelda> how do I setup all the buttons on my mouse so that I can use them?
[09:06] <rogue780> EhPrettyEasy, what do you want to do?
[09:07] <gluttony> Michael__: ok, then according to fangorious, i was not in synaptic
[09:07] <EhPrettyEasy> I want to have the same "net" commands in Ubuntu what I have in XP
[09:07] <fangorious> Zelda: you mean thumb buttons or a scroll wheel?
[09:07] <EhPrettyEasy> But they're different.
[09:07] <Michael__> Gluttony: no they are different, but you should only use one or the other or you will get errors if both are open at the same time
[09:07] <anty> I need help: I changed the password of my user (passwd username) and when I log in now (in shell), I only see "$", not the usual username@server~$. I also can't see in what directory I am. How can I fix this?
[09:07] <bitmess> At least Windows has system restore so that when u screw up you can always restore it
[09:08] <Hoag> Why do I need to press some keys twice to make the character appear?
[09:08] <Hoag> Eg  and 
[09:08] <fangorious> gluttony: Michael's right about one at a time, just like you can't use command-line apt while either synaptic or add/remove is open
[09:08] <LjL> bXi: by using an US layout instead of an US intl layout
[09:08] <Zelda> fangorious: no the scroll wheel works. I have a logitech mx518 gamers mouse. I have like 5 other buttons on the mouse that I cant use. I would like to use them.
[09:08] <gluttony> ok. thanks
[09:08] <bXi> ah
[09:08] <bXi> Hoag: i think ljl just answered our question
[09:08] <|ericsson|> bitmess: yes, that's where all the viruses gets stuck as well..
[09:08] <Michael__> EhPrettyEasy:  Good Ubuntu uninstall information is here -- http://www.users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p18.htm
[09:09] <fsckr> can someone by any chance tell me what program it is or how to have your terminal your actual desktop without the titlebars and everything?
[09:09] <EhPrettyEasy> Why would I want to uninstall it when I havn't even installed it?
[09:09] <Hoag> LjL and bXi: Excellent! Thank you both, then. :P
[09:09] <fangorious> Zelda: I got my thumb buttons to work adding this to the mouse device section of xorg.conf: "Option" "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 6 7"
[09:09] <chimby> anyone know how to pass command line options to the ubuntu mysql start script
[09:09] <gluttony> one of my friends said it might be an unsupported sound card that is causing the static.
[09:09] <Zelda> fangorious: and that will give you 7 buttons?
[09:10] <bXi> woot
[09:10] <bitmess> ericsssson: Actually, I wanted you to tell me how to restore my Gnome back to opperational :)
[09:10] <bXi> now i can finally start coding :P
[09:10] <fangorious> Zelda: yeah, the usual zaxismapping for scroll, and the button mapping lets me use the two thumb buttons for forward/back in my browser
[09:10] <bitmess> ericsson: Actually, I wanted you to tell me how to restore my Gnome back to opperational :)
[09:10] <CheshireViking> at least they're going down slowly

[09:10] <|ericsson|> bitmess: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and figers crossed? ;)
[09:10] <Zelda> fangorious: actually i have 8 buttons that I can use, but I use 4 mostly.
[09:10] <Michael__> EhPrettyEasy  -- but be warned: When ununstalling Ubuntu you need to replace the GRUB boot loader that gets installed.

[09:11] <bitmess> ericsson: Thank You!
[09:11] <rogue780> bitmess, use aptitude....it might not have super cow powers, but I think it's better than apt-get
[09:11] <fangorious> Zelda: firefox, doesn't seem to work in nautilus. i think that needs imwheel, been a while since i messed with it
[09:11] <The-Doc> yoo
[09:11] <posingaspopular> nalioth: ping

[09:12] <posingaspopular> hey nixternal told me to hit you up about an idea i had
[09:12] <kbrooks> posingaspopular, what is the idea
[09:12] <Zelda> fangorious: I will thanks. Thats the buttons I use the most. The thumb navigating button and obviously the left & right click and the scroll-wheel
[09:12] <posingaspopular> about possibly creating an official '#ubunutu-" chan specifically for mac users
[09:13] <posingaspopular> where they could go for help and all that jazz
[09:13] <bitmess> rogue780: so sudo aptitude-get install ubuntu-desktop?

[09:16] <philc> I want to keep a copy of a 300G hard drive I have. I've used raid in the past, but it's a pain to have to worry about the raid card's drivers, setting it up, rebuilding the raid when a hard drive fails, etc. I want something simple. Would buying 2 hard drives and just rsyncing one to the other be an ok solution?
[09:16] <philc> doesn't rsync put a lot of read/write traffic on the disks?
[09:16] <pmorrison> Hey everyone. I have a MS Wireless Mouse 4000, that seems to mostly work great with Ubuntu. The Only issue is that there is one thumb button on the left side that does not work. Does anyone know how I could get that button working and assign it to different tasks? In windows with the MS drivers it creates a magnification box, but not interested in that.
[09:16] <philc> (rsync daily)
[09:17] <StaticDrifter> Hello
[09:17] <StaticDrifter> I'm looking for a little help with ubuntu
[09:17] <psusi> the down side to rsync is that if the master drive fails, you still crash, and loose data since the last rsync

[09:18] <nosbourg> hi all

[09:19] <posingaspopular> budluva: that's a question you should ask in #ubuntu-effects

[09:19] <posingaspopular> and only because i dontknow the answe

[09:40] <radwi1> less /etc/fstab
[09:40] <Yarrod> hey Graft, if a app is unreachable through synaptic packager is it plain out unusable?
[09:40] <Flamekebab> In that case, can anyone point me to where I might ask?
[09:41] <concept10> most /etc/mtab
[09:41] <graft> Yarrod: ? unreachable?
[09:41] <sh00t1> just mount
[09:41] <nosbourg> graft
[09:41] <crabgrass> "users's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. ... File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions. ... "         how did this happen, and how do i fix it?
[09:41] <graft> nosbourg: what model of p4p800 do you have?
[09:41] <nosbourg> deluxe
[09:41] <Falstius> mysta: mount (without arguements) shows what is mounted, cat /etc/fstab shows where things should be mounted (except auto stuff like USB drives)
[09:42] <Yarrod> graft: cannot be found is search
[09:42] <crabgrass> i know i need to use chmod or chown, but i'm unsure of the syntax, and man shown didn't help
[09:42] <graft> Yarrod: um, what's the app? you might just be looking for the wrong name
[09:42] <concept10> crabgrass, chmod 644 ~/.dmrc
[09:42] <cables> Does the Restricted Drivers Manager make a backup of xorg.conf before installing nVidia drivers?

[09:43] <Guitrokr> a
[09:43] <mysta> thx radwi1, concept10, and Falstius. never knew about mtab, its seems easier to read than fstab, which is what I'm use to
[09:43] <Carcosa_> rogue: sudo apt-get autoremove
[09:43] <Falstius> crabgrass: when I updated freevo awhile back, it changed the permissions of everything in my home directory and all the binary files on the system.  A broken package could do it (needless to say, I don't use Freevo anymore)
[09:44] <sh00t1> good luck if it is an old nvidia card
[09:44] <concept10> crabgrass, you may use chown for that
[09:44] <Emiel`> can i expect problems when installing ubuntu on a 4gb usb disk instead of a hard disk?
[09:44] <Carcosa_> rogue or if you dare: for i in `find vmware`; do rm $i; done
[09:44] <graft> goo... nosbourg, does it load any sound modules at all?
[09:44] <Carcosa_> but autoremove should do it
[09:44] <eck> Emiel`: it should be fine
[09:44] <Emiel`> ok
[09:44] <Guitrokr> does anyone wanna give it a shot and help me with my wireless?
[09:45] <psusi> aubade: where else would it put it if not on the hard disk?
[09:45] <nosbourg> no graft
[09:45] <sh00t1> is it with supend
[09:45] <Emiel`> cos the hd controller in my laptop is broken, and fixing is is probably more expensive than buying a new laptop :(
[09:45] <sh00t1> is it with suspend
[09:45] <concept10> !anyone > Guitrokr
[09:45] <radwi1> Guitrokr: what is your problem with it?
[09:45] <graft> nosbourg: did you try just doing like, sudo modprobe snd_intel8x0
[09:46] <Guitrokr> i can see all my wireless networks but can't connect to any
[09:46] <nosbourg> wait
[09:46] <nosbourg> nothing happens
[09:46] <Guitrokr> i've been trying everything, it tells me i have good strength on all of them, and they aren't encrypted
[09:46] <aubade> psusi: Well, I wasn't sure it it would use the MBR (hd0) or the same partition as Windows.
[09:46] <radwi1> Guitrork: do you use FF?
[09:46] <Falstius> Emiel`: you're going to have trouble with grub i think
[09:46] <Guitrokr> yes radwi1
[09:46] <lichen> hey do you guys know why when i install the ndiswrapper-common and utils packages they don't actually install the ndiswrapper module?
[09:46] <timewriter> anyone here experienced Intel Motheboard ?
[09:46] <Yarrod> now i find out if beryl works :D
[09:47] <eck> Falstius: it will be fine as long as the bios can see usb devices
[09:47] <concept10> !anyone > timewriter
[09:47] <aubade> timewriter: Intel-branded or using Intel chipsets?
[09:47] <psusi> aubade: the windows mbr just loads the partition boot sector from whichever one is marked as active
[09:47] <timewriter> intel branded
[09:47] <aubade> Ah, alright.
[09:47] <radwi1> Guitrork: with my case wifi works fine,
[09:47] <Falstius> eck, really?  I'll have to try that.
[09:47] <eck> Falstius: yeah, i've done it before
[09:47] <khermans_> Ubuquity does not scan /dev/md0 on Feisty?
[09:47] <Guitrokr> well i need help getting mine to work
[09:48] <graft> nosbourg: if there's no error, the module might have loaded...
[09:48] <Guitrokr> i've done so much work just to get the wireless networks to show up at all
[09:48] <graft> nosbourg: type lsmod  | grep snd
[09:48] <timewriter> what lsmod does
[09:48] <timewriter> ?
[09:48] <rankin_> one know of a good poker game for linux
[09:48] <nosbourg> wait
[09:48] <WesLappy> Is it possible to add a new user with a blank password so they are forced to create one on the initial login? Also, is there an easy way to create a default gnome layout for new users?
[09:48] <rankin_> need help
[09:48] <psusi> timewriter: lists the loaded kernel modules
[09:48] <shaqiel> Guitrokr: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[09:49] <timewriter> cheers
[09:49] <Guitrokr> fiesty
[09:49] <Guitrokr> all updated
[09:49] <Falstius> Guitrokr: my too, and when it does finally connect, the machine gets a blue screen of death.  Thing works just fine in Linux though.
[09:49] <stone_>  hey i am just starting with debian. is it ok that when i type 'netstat' in right column i have for example 'T5x3BisOz ' ??
[09:49] <nosbourg> yeah
[09:49] <nosbourg> a list of modules
[09:49] <eck> WesLappy: i believe the tool to create a default layout is called sabayon
[09:49] <nosbourg> intel ,ac97
[09:49] <rankin_>  one know of a good poker game for linux HUMAN EDITION
[09:49] <graft> nosbourg: okay... any sound?
[09:49] <WesLappy> eck: thanks
[09:49] <nosbourg> nop
[09:49] <eck> WesLappy: and I think you can set the expiration of the password when you run the passwd command
[09:49] <NobleCommerce> heres a simple question... how do i remove the help icon from my top panel?
[09:49] <rankin_> RIGHT CLICK
[09:50] <graft> nosbourg: fire up the alsamixer and see if you have volume set correctly
[09:50] <graft> nosbourg: also do aplay -l again and see what it says
[09:50] <NobleCommerce> rankin, that doesn't work
[09:50] <Guitrokr> i have a dell card made by Broadcom
[09:50] <Guitrokr> and the bcm43xx driver is loaded
[09:50] <rankin_> CLICK REMOVIE FROM PANEL
[09:50] <shaqiel> Guitrokr: and the nm-applet icon show up in systray?
[09:50] <NobleCommerce> i can remove firefox or evolution that way, but the help icon just stares at me
[09:50] <nosbourg> function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[09:50] <nosbourg> graft
[09:50] <rankin_> lol
[09:50] <Guitrokr> i see all my normal wireless networks and get good signal strength, but when i try to connect it just tries for awhile then fails
[09:50] <Falstius> rogue780: what kernel are you running?
[09:50] <Guitrokr> yes it does
[09:50] <rankin_> <NobleCommerce: right click - remove panel
[09:51] <DivineMonkey> Anybody know how to clean up after a dist-upgrade? Got very limited space on laptop...
[09:51] <NobleCommerce> then recreate the whole panel i guess?
[09:51] <rankin_> if you want
[09:51] <shaqiel> Guitrokr, what does syslog say?
[09:51] <Guitrokr> i've tried connecting to these networks via NM and wifirador
[09:51] <dyrne> DivineMonkey: /var/cache would be my first stop
[09:51] <nosbourg> no such device
[09:51] <eck> DivineMonkey: apt-get clean
[09:51] <nosbourg> graft
[09:51] <Guitrokr> where do i find syslog?
[09:51] <DivineMonkey> Cool thanks :)
[09:51] <graft> nosbourg: hrmrmrmm...
[09:51] <WesLappy> eck: so I'd have to set a "default" password instead of just a blank.. let it expire and have them change it when they login then eh?
[09:51] <lau> hello _o/
[09:51] <Falstius> Guitrokr: unless you have moral objections, ndiswrapper will probably work better than the bcm43xx driver (I have a D600 with a similar card)
[09:51] <lau> Which shell do you use for a POP3 only account on your system?
[09:52] <graft> nosbourg: can you pastebin your output of lspci -v
[09:52] <Guitrokr> apparently that is very hard to set up, or so i hear, but im pretty much a newb
[09:52] <soundray> lau: set it to /bin/false to prevent interactive logins
[09:52] <nosbourg> yep
[09:52] <Guitrokr> im a quick learning newb, but a newb nonetheless
[09:52] <lau> soundray: supa
[09:52] <eck> WesLappy: it looks like you can use passwd -e to expire a password, which forces them to create a new one at the next login
[09:52] <Falstius> Guitrokr: with clear instructions it is pretty simple.  The difficult part is locating the correct windows drivers.
[09:53] <eck> WesLappy: so i guess you'd create a password and immediately expire it, so they need to set it as soon as they first log in
[09:53] <Guitrokr> yeah i have no idea where to find the driver for this, i've checked the website

[09:57] <shaqiel> rever75,  what version of server?
[09:58] <shirish> I'm having issues with debian-installer can anybody help?
[09:58] <nosbourg> graft are you?
[09:58] <rogue780> Falstius, 2.6.20-15-generic
[09:58] <rever75> shaqiel, Feisty Server and the vmware from canonical
[09:58] <usser> hm, does anyone know if wine for amd64 in the repo is actually a 64 bit package and not a hack?
[09:59] <Tchaka> hello, anybody tried to install pidgin 2.0?
[09:59] <Falstius> rogue780: your vmware problem looks like you're missing the vmware kernel modules.  You can do sudo apt-get remove vmware-player && sudo apt-get autoremove or just install the modules and use vmware.
[09:59] <dettoaltrimenti> is there a gui app in gnome to replace individual icons?
[09:59] <eck> Tchaka: i compiled it...
[09:59] <rever75> shaqiel, Everything installed fine except vmware-mui. I used a patch from one of the ubuntu forum posts and then it started fine
[09:59] <dmhouse> Where does System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts save to?
[09:59] <soundray> usser: what repo did you find that in? Have you tried 'apt-cache show wine'?
[09:59] <eck> dmhouse: i believe they are all stored in gconf
[10:00] <dmhouse> eck: any idea whereabouts?
[10:00] <eck> dmhouse: run gconf-editor to edit the settings
[10:00] <rogue780> Falstius, apt-get remove doesn't work.
[10:00] <bnlo87> does anyone know if a final version of pidgin has been released for ubuntu?
[10:00] <shaqiel> rever75,  there is an issue with vmware drivers on feisty, far as I could tell you need to load vmware 6.0 beta
[10:00] <usser> soundray: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com
[10:00] <Falstius> rogue780: it refuses to remove vmware-player?

[10:00] <lbawinowns> Somone got that problem at login there comes an error message some network management failed to start and then you have a couple of icons being blank or showing something they shouldnt?

[10:02] <compengi> Tchaka, what problems you are facing?
[10:02] <eck> Tchaka: you need to untar it as well
[10:02] <shaqiel> rever75,  try https://register.vmware.com/content/beta/ws/download.html
[10:02] <eck> Tchaka: the -z flag in tar will gunzip it as well as extract the tarball
[10:02] <Falstius> rogue780:  can make a big terminal (otherwise the text gets cut off) and run and pastebin:  dpkg -l 'vmware*'
[10:02] <rogue780> does anyone know where I can find the output from the bootmessages under the usplash?
[10:03] <compengi> Tchaka, why not to right click and extract here?

[10:03] <rever75> shaqiel, Everything installed and started fine.

[10:09] <soundray> iShock: please explain what you mean
[10:09] <nosbourg> im novice ;)
[10:09] <Pelo> nosbourg, private message window, check the tabs at the or top of the chat window
[10:09] <entheo> hmm
[10:09] <iShock> soundray, like AmitySource Userbar Generator, I found some Windows ones, but I installed with Wine, I can't get it to work
[10:09] <nosbourg> ok
[10:09] <Markok765> soundray: I wantt the one that came when i installed ubuntu though
[10:09] <entheo> well when i type in the command it goes there
[10:09] <entheo> and it is in both places
[10:10] <rogue780> right
[10:10] <rogue780> the one in /usr/bin is the right one
[10:10] <rogue780> it
[10:10] <Falstius> rogue780: the models are installed strangely ... have you tried dpkg --purge vmware-player ?
[10:10] <rogue780> is the one that works for me
[10:10] <MFen> Can someone tell me how i can UN-flag a package as "automatically installed"?
[10:10] <Raptor45> Firestarter has been blocking a whole lot of traffic on port 6881, but I've set up Deluge to use 14601... why is this? should I set it to allow that traffic through?
[10:10] <soundray> iShock: it would help if you could say what a userbar is.
[10:10] <iShock> Oh LOL :P
[10:10] <nosbourg> graft any tip?
[10:10] <Pelo> MFen,  do you mean in synaptic ? in the status display ?
[10:11] <plagiats> ok good bye #ubuntu
[10:11] <MFen> i have installed openoffice.org 2.2 official from the openoffice.org site (because ubuntu's packages are broken!) and now about half of those packages, installed manually, say "automatically installed" and it keeps offering to remove them
[10:11] <rogue780> Falstius, doesn't work...it goes through the motions but it remains intact
[10:11] <entheo> so should i type /usr/bin/qemu-img theimageandsize?
[10:11] <goblinz44> archlinux has up2date packages
[10:11] <iShock> soundray, http://www.gimptalk.com/forum/topic/Make-A-Userbar-In-The-Gimp-9605-1.html <-- Look at the top for what says GIMP USER and has a GIMP pic thingk
[10:11] <goblinz44> debian dont
[10:11] <entheo> ah it works!
[10:11] <goblinz44> u-bung-2 is on debian eh
[10:11] <entheo> thank you rogue
[10:11] <yxairyggen> Is there anybody here who knows how I get permissions for my regular user to start an X-server?
[10:11] <MFen> Pelo: there's a bunch of openoffice packages that are in the "apt-get autoremove" list, and i want them out of there, because with them in there i can't use apt-get autoremove
[10:11] <nosbourg> pelo
[10:11] <Markok765> I would like the original batttery icon, that integrates into power preferencess. I'm on a laptop
[10:11] <nosbourg> ive been search for the answer in all of the forums
[10:12] <nosbourg> but without result
[10:12] <rogue780> nosbourg, what's the issue?
[10:12] <Pelo> MFen,  apt-get remove  package name
[10:12] <nosbourg> its the last way an irc channel
[10:12] <dyrne> Markok765: apt-cache search applet | grep battery maybe
[10:12] <xjkx> i installed xubuntu and it doesnt boot, freezes on tsc clocksource installed, i tried boot options: nolapic, noacpi, vga=771, vga=normal, cevesa, e=true, no876, gdth=disable:y, and I cant boot, I have a semprom2600+, it freezes on "tsc timesource installed, input: keyboard 2 /input/something" it stops !
[10:12] <MFen> Pelo: i don't want to remove the package!  i want to remove the "auto" state
[10:12] <nosbourg> ive got an x-fi and onboard ac97 card
[10:12] <nosbourg> but dont have sound
[10:12] <MFen> Pelo: i want it to stop telling me i should remove them
[10:12] <Pelo> MFen,  try installing them
[10:12] <nosbourg> on feisty
[10:12] <soundray> iShock: seems like you've answered your own question. Use the gimp.
[10:12] <MFen> Pelo: i did install them
[10:12] <Falstius> rogue780: I'd try reinstalling the vmware-player modules and then uninstall everything, but otherwise I'm out of ideas.
[10:13] <nosbourg> my board is an asus p4p800 deluxe
[10:13] <iShock> I found that tut, but I was hoping for a userbar maker cause its easier
[10:13] <Markok765> dyrne: is that command line? Its a GNOME thing
[10:13] <Raptor45> MFen, by installing them manually they won't be marked as auto-installed, and so won't be auto-removed
[10:13] <Pelo> MFen,  there is probably a reason why itwants them removed,  they are probably no longer needed,   try sudo apt-get autoclean
[10:13] <rogue780> Falstius, done that too...thanks for trying though.
[10:13] <MFen> Raptor45: i did install them manually in the first place. it says this anyway.
[10:13] <MFen> Pelo: they are needed.  it's saying that because it's dumb, and it's confused by my installing openoffice.org official packages instead of using ubuntu's broken ones.
[10:13] <dyrne> Markok765: those little applets in gnome-panel are just that applets. you can install them then right click on the panel to add whatever ones are installed that you want
[10:14] <soundray> iShock: try 'apt-cache search userbar'. There are no results on edgy.
[10:14] <nosbourg> in the livecd when i try lspci -v
[10:14] <MFen> i used dpkg -i to install them
[10:14] <nosbourg> the ac97 appears
[10:14] <nosbourg> but after feisty installation
[10:14] <iShock> Nothing happened
[10:14] <intelikey> someone dirrect me in the way here.   where is the howto for making live CD's and is there a tool kit ?
[10:14] <nosbourg> it dont appear
[10:14] <Falstius> rogue780: well, you could use dpkg -s (I think) to get a list of all the installed files and remove them, and then I think dselect to remove the package from the database.  Or something like that, never tried :)
[10:14] <nosbourg> only the x-fi
[10:14] <MFen> about 15-20 packages total.  about 6 of them are in the "auto" list, for no discernible reason.
[10:15] <Markok765> intelikey: just download the iso and burn it to a cd with software
[10:15] <ProN00b> how do i stop a service in /etc/init.d from starting up automatically the ubuntu way ?
[10:15] <Kubuntu> If I type sudo apt-get install steam, then what would it install?
[10:15] <MFen> all i want to know is how i change that state flag, so it knows i meant to install them, really, for reals.
[10:15] <nosbourg> i tried to recompile alsa and the kernel
[10:15] <nosbourg> but no result
[10:15] <dushko> Is there a command to replace symlinks with the actual source file that they point to?
[10:15] <diana> there are far too many people on this channel - 1294 now - how can we possibly converse?
[10:15] <intelikey> Markok765 no.  making live CD's not using someone elses
[10:15] <soundray> !info dfsbuild | intelikey, is this what you need?
[10:15] <ubotu> intelikey, is this what you need?: dfsbuild: Build Debian From Scratch CD/DVD images. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.99.2 (feisty), package size 952 kB, installed size 2848 kB (Only available for i386 alpha powerpc amd64)
[10:15] <brainiac8008> i have dapper.  If I have the feisty disk, when I install, can I just put it in ext3 over Dapper?
[10:15] <ProN00b> Kubuntu, an "Environment for cooperative knowledge management" aparently
[10:15] <Raptor45> Firestarter is recording a lot of blocked connections on 6881... is this blocking torrents if I have Deluge set up to use 14601?
[10:16] <intelikey> soundray maybe.
[10:16] <Pelo> diana,  by typing the name of the person you are talking to so they know you are adressing them
[10:16] <Kubuntu> What does an "Environment for cooperative knowledge management" do?
[10:16] <Kubuntu> Is it a game thing?
[10:16] <StoneNote> nosbourg,  (1)close the audio appliaction (2) open a terminal and try "sudo chmod 666 /dev/dsp" or "sudo chmod 666 /dev/audio" or "sudo chmod 666 /dev/mixer" depending on the application you are trying to hear audio through (3) open your audio application and see if it works
[10:16] <soundray> brainiac8008: you could, but it's best to (have a backup and) tell the installer to format the dapper root partition.
[10:16] <intelikey> soundray any accompnaing docs ?
[10:16] <nosbourg> ok wait and thanks
[10:16] <diana> Pelo: I am speaking to anyone who will listen.  Thank you for answering me!  :)
[10:17] <MFen> Kubuntu: sounds like a contact manager/calendar/pim thing
[10:17] <Pelo> brainiac8008,  yes you can overwrite your dapper,   but if your /home folder is in the same partition it will be overwriten to
[10:17] <Kubuntu> Ok
[10:17] <soundray> intelikey: I saw a web tutorial once, but it was Debian-related and it was ages ago.
[10:17] <brainiac8008> soundray, how do i format the dapper root partition?
[10:17] <xjkx> i installed xubuntu and it doesnt boot, freezes on tsc clocksource installed, i tried boot options: nolapic, noacpi, vga=771, vga=normal, cevesa, e=true, no876, gdth=disable:y, and I cant boot, I have a semprom2600+, it freezes on "tsc timesource installed, input: keyboard 2 /input/something" it stops !
[10:17] <JJNova> Hey guys, I need a reminder. How do I check what filesystem a hard drive is using ?
[10:17] <soundray> brainiac8008: it's a tick box in the feisty installer.
[10:17] <foo> http://x01.ath.cx/temp/error.txt  - can someone reassure me that these are hard drive errors? I saw this, and the system crashed. Is it 99% chance that it is the drive, or can it be the sata controller or something? Hm
[10:17] <Kubuntu> Can I edit partions inside feisty fawn?
[10:17] <joeamined> hi

[10:17] <ubotu> soundray intelikey: Creating custom Live CDs is explained on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[10:17] <intelikey> soundray ok.  thanks.    been a big help already.
[10:17] <hypn0> diana: conversing isn't done here :-) you want a general chat channel
[10:18] <joeamined> i no longer can't play wma samples of amazon, why ?
[10:18] <Pelo> Kubuntu,  yes but not on a live partition, ie it needs to be unmounted
[10:18] <soundray> brainiac8008: choose manual partitioning
[10:18] <joeamined> i no longer can play wma samples of amazon, why ?
[10:18] <Pelo> !codecs > joeamined  check pm windows
[10:18] <brainiac8008> soundray, so all I have to do is backup, do a format of the dapper root partition, and then install feisty?
[10:18] <nosbourg> chmod cant access to /dev/dsp no such file or directory
[10:18] <nosbourg> stonenote
[10:18] <soundray> vox754: hope he saw that before he left
[10:18] <brainiac8008> soundray, and what is the "dapper root partition"?  ext3?
[10:19] <vox754> soundray, ja, it took me a while to find the factoid
[10:19] <joeamined> Pelo, i have the necessary codecs
[10:19] <soundray> brainiac8008: even easier. You let the installer do it all for you.
[10:19] <JJNova> brainiac8008:  How would you find that out ?
[10:19] <joeamined> it worked before but it no longer does
[10:19] <joeamined> i have the w32codecs
[10:19] <Pelo> joeamined,  try another site to check it's you and not the site
[10:19] <nosbourg> the sound volume on the toolbar has the sign of prohibition
[10:19] <nosbourg> stonenote
[10:20] <StoneNote> nosbourg, ok.  idid it take the other two?
[10:20] <Pelo> nosbourg, right click the icon and uncheck mute
[10:20] <joeamined> pelo, do you have an url with wma files ?
[10:20] <soundray> brainiac8008: by dapper root partition I mean the partition where the system files of your old installation went. Yes, it's very probably ext3-formatted.
[10:20] <Pelo> joeamined, sorry I don'T   google
[10:20] <nosbourg> is unchecked
[10:20] <estudiante_> j/ fcld
[10:20] <nosbourg> the other commands do the same result
[10:20] <estudiante_> Enilda
[10:20] <brainiac8008> soundray, i don't feel very comfortable by letting it doing it all automatically if that's what you mean
[10:20] <estudiante_> hola
[10:21] <StoneNote> nosbourg, they don't exist either?
[10:21] <nosbourg> and what can i do?

[10:21] <nosbourg> could be the feisty dvd image
[10:21] <nosbourg> ?
[10:21] <soundray> brainiac8008: the installer (ubiquity by name) is so well tested that you're more likely to screw up than it (at least if you're like me ;)

[10:22] <mart_> Is there a Thunderbird 2.0 deb package for Feisty Fawn?
[10:22] <Kubuntu> Is there any way to make Counter Strike Source run faster than with 18 fps(3.4ghx 1gb ram, 256 NVIDA geforce)
[10:22] <Kubuntu> ?
[10:22] <brainiac8008> soundray, but won't I have to tell it somehow that I want ext3 formatted?
[10:22] <StoneNote> nosbourg, you have me stumped.  prehaps reinstall alsa
[10:22] <nosbourg> ive reinstalled
[10:22] <nosbourg> and compiled
[10:23] <Pelo> JJNova,   fsck with a switch , don't remembe which,   check the man page
[10:23] <xjkx> KERNEL PROBLEM: ~~~i installed xubuntu and it doesnt boot, freezes on tsc clocksource installed, i tried boot options: nolapic, noacpi, vga=771, vga=normal, cevesa, e=true, no876, gdth=disable:y, and I cant boot, I have a semprom2600+, it freezes on "tsc timesource installed, input: keyboard 2 /input/something" it stops ! ~~~
[10:23] <soundray> brainiac8008: no. If you want anything other than ext3, you have to use the Alternate CD.
[10:23] <vox754> JJNova, "sudo fdisk -l"
[10:23] <JJNova> Thanks pelo
[10:23] <JJNova> thanks vox754
[10:23] <nosbourg> stonenote?
[10:23] <Kubuntu> !xubuntu | xjkx
[10:23] <nosbourg> what can i do please
[10:23] <ubotu> xjkx: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[10:23] <Acidz0r> Have anyone got a Creative X-Fi to work with Fiesty or older releases?
[10:24] <xjkx> Kubuntu: no its not off topic, its kernel thing
[10:24] <JJNova> WTF is an EZ-Drive filesystem? I hate you hard drive!
[10:24] <soundray> xjkx: I think your question is right on-topic here, despite what Kubuntu said
[10:24] <xjkx> its the same kernel
[10:24] <J4G> hello ubuntu users! is a ubuntu-server-7 good?
[10:24] <xjkx> soundray: :))
[10:24] <joeamined> well, i can read wma files, so the problem is with the amazon.com site
[10:24] <Pelo> xjkx,  I think we was trying to direct you to the xubuntu channel
[10:24] <Kubuntu> I thought it could help, sorry.
[10:24] <soundray> xjkx: have you thrown the error message at a search engine?
[10:25] <Pelo> joeamined,  patience then
[10:25] <brainiac8008> soundray, I do want ext3 but you said before that there is a tick box in manual mode to tell it to format ext3.  If I select automatic mode, how will it know to format it?  and how will it know that I don't want to create a second ext3 partition?
[10:25] <joeamined> Pelo, could it be dma restrictions ?
[10:25] <StoneNote> nosbourg, I can't say.  you've got a custom kernel and a custom alsa so I cannot tell what you might have done.  my sounds works, though I once got a "cannot find /dev/dsp" for one of the movie players and did a "mkdir /dev/dsp" and the chmod I already posted. it worked.  with yours, I don't know
[10:25] <joeamined> eu i mean drm restrictions
[10:25] <Pelo> joeamined,  I wouldn'T know
[10:25] <soundray> brainiac8008: there is a tick box to format it. You don't get a choice as to the file system.
[10:25] <xjkx> Pelo: we have more buntoers here than there and the kernel is the same, here i have more chances. There is actually no error messages besides the freeze
[10:25] <Pelo> joeamined,  I woudln'T think drm applies to preview files
[10:26] <soundray> brainiac8008: you've got a backup, right? Stop worrying and get to work (is my suggestion)
[10:26] <Kubuntu> Is it anything useful I can do with beryl?
[10:26] <nosbourg> ok thanks
[10:26] <Pelo> xjkx,  I donT' object to you being here,  I was just trying to clear up the msg you go
[10:26] <[GuS] > Hi guys... one question... is there a problem with Samba in feisty? i cant share feiles/printers.. and the same configuration were working on Edgy...
[10:26] <Pelo> t
[10:26] <xjkx> It just stops, there is no error message, the messages are these ones and i googled
[10:26] <nosbourg> any other channel ill search for?
[10:26] <StoneNote> nosbourg, does the sound work from a LiveCD?
[10:26] <Pelo> Kubuntu,   try asking in #beryl
[10:26] <soundray> xjkx: I mean, have you searched for the tsc timesource thingy you quoted above?
[10:26] <xjkx> the messages are normal
[10:26] <nosbourg> nop
[10:26] <brainiac8008> soundray, thanks, i'll work on it.  I just don't want to screw up my hard drive with more partitions than I want.
[10:27] <hateubuntu> kak ste kenefi
[10:27] <xjkx> soundray: yes and i found just normal boot things
[10:27] <nosbourg> but the ac97 with the lspci command appears
[10:27] <xjkx> its not an error
[10:27] <soundray> brainiac8008: there is very little danger of that.
[10:27] <TheGimp> anybody know why i wouldn't get an ip address connecting wirelessely? I've detected the router and logged onto it, but i'm not getting an ip...

[10:27] <brainiac8008> soundray, ok, thanks again.  see ya

[10:28] <diana> hypn0: I want a general chat channel where someone might tell me about ALSA vs OSS on Feisty (and why my beloved cat keeps throwing up).
[10:28] <soundray> xjkx: have you tried booting just without 'quiet splash' to get a more verbose bootup?
[10:28] <majd> hey, how do i delete a directory? rm -r requires me to press enter for every file (to confirm)...is there a better way to do this?
[10:28] <xjkx> soundray: there is where i saw the timesource thing
[10:28] <lbawinowns> What was the name of the setting accessibility to disks and files, where u wrote 3 numbers between 1 and 7

[10:28] <Kubuntu> After typing in "sudo apt-get install steam" it asks me about a debconfig databese, what should i do?
[10:29] <q-t> Hey, the xhost command...can that be used to allow traffic through certain ports, or is it just for specific hosts?
[10:29] <nosbourg> i dont know if could be a problem of the dvd image i had download
[10:29] <xjkx> if i keep the quiet splash it freezes on "starting up" and NO OTHER messages appear
[10:29] <StoneNote> nosbourg, put your dvd in your computer and then check it. it's on the menu that pops up.  you'll be able to see if your burnt copy is bad
[10:29] <hypn0> diana: I don't know abt the sound, but I think the cats been eating things you don't know abt :-))
[10:29] <StoneNote> and I'm outta here

[10:38] <compengi> lol
[10:38] <compengi> have you tried it?
[10:38] <lbawinowns> seriouslt I see no difference between the two versions..
[10:38] <Ace2016> PocketIRC: well feisty is a lost faster than edgy, for me anyway, any specific problems
[10:38] <Ace2016> ?
 yeah tried it since beta...
[10:39] <compengi> PocketIRC, beta is beta ;
[10:39] <compengi> ;)

[10:41] <soundray> xjkx: what, xubuntu? No, ext3 afaik.
[10:41] <Loco> jrib,  ok thanx very much

[10:42] <kesha> Loco i suggest you to check vmware also
[10:42] <soundray> xjkx: that'll be the problem. If you want to install to a filesystem other than ext3, you will have to use the Alternate CD.

[10:45] <jay__> Hi all
[10:45] <soundray> xjkx: it's an educated guess. Desktop CD supports only ext3, so if you point it to a reiser partition without letting it format it, it may well screw up. It would be a bug, but it's entirely within the realm of possibility ;)

[11:00] <punk_> Just rebooted and ubuntu's kernel modules for the nvidia drivers are the most recent (71.xx??), and the drivers I installed are not as recent.
[11:00] <virginia_tech> what kind of pass is this : ASP.NET_SessionId=02sdbufrj1tmusqaf42yzx45
[11:00] <akIra> but i am in portugal, and wanna add the portugues server
[11:00] <jay__> I'm sorry. So I open synaptic and it installs heaps of updates. Then it gives me the software index is broken error. It says that my "Linux kernel image on x86_64." is broken. I try and re-install it many times, but to no avail. Then I do mark for reisntallation and a file called "Linux kernel image for version 2.6.15 on x86_64.." is also trying to be INSTALLED, not reinstalled. Whenever I try and click apply, it gives me this : "
[11:00] <jay__> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.15-28-amd64-generic_2.6.15-28.53_amd64.deb: failed in buffer_write(fd) (10, ret=-1)"
[11:00] <punk_> But i've tried installing the latest nvidia drivers, and nvidia doesn't like that.
[11:01] <jay__> That's all that happens.
[11:01] <aum> hi - has anyone here used reconstructor?
[11:01] <soundray> majd: in that case, it will probably only have modified the files in your home directory (and possibly some in temp dirs)
[11:01] <deCon> soundray, it was fine
[11:01] <majd> soundray, so i'm safe?
[11:02] <virginia_tech> what kind of hash is this : ASP.NET_SessionId=02sdbufrj1tmusqaf42yzx45

[11:02] <Ace2016> jay__: how much free diskspace do you have left?
[11:02] <Cryoniq> Question: If I would want to setup a proxy on one of my ubuntu machines that would allow external web users to surf to the adress aaa.bbb.ccc and they would actually go via my machine to oh lets say for example www.donaldduck.com. What should I use? Squid?
[11:02] <lbawinowns> Please somone! I can't even write to my drive :(
[11:02] <jay__> On my /boot directory, it's 100% full.
[11:02] <deCon> soundray, any ideas?
[11:03] <jay__> But on my partition, it's 11% full with 100GB left of free space.
[11:03] <Ace2016> jay__: the kernel has to go in /boot
[11:03] <jay__> How do I clear space in /boot?
[11:03] <soundray> deCon: not really, sorry
[11:04] <jay__> Am I able to clear space in /boot or am I screwed?
[11:04] <Cryoniq> My friends work blocked a site to a webgame we play and I was thinking setting up a web proxy for them so they could surf to my machine and get to the site (that is if their work just blocked the url to the site and IP)
[11:04] <Ace2016> jay__: remove the kernel your trying to install now, and the oldest kernel you have installed, don't touch the one your using now
[11:04] <soundray> jay__: keep it to ONE LINE!
[11:04] <ANON12345> A new version of Gaim (now called "pidgin" due to copyright issues with AOL) has been released, but all i see is fedora core and source code packages available for download on the main site, where can i find the debian/ubuntu packages?
[11:05] <ANON12345> it is not listed in synaptic
[11:05] <jay__> How do I remove the kernel? Should I do "mark for complete removal" in synapti on the "Linux kernel image on x86_64" package?
[11:05] <Cryoniq> I am confused about GAIM and Pigdin.. when going to pidgins site it says GAIM version 2... to download.. and that is the one I have installed from synaptic, so I guess they are the same?
[11:05] <kbrooks> jay__, NO PLEASE DONT
[11:06] <kbrooks> Cryoniq, pidgin is gaim
[11:06] <jay__> Linux kernel image on x86_64 is the broken package.
[11:06] <Ace2016> kbrooks: ???
[11:06] <darwin> Can you check the integrity of a burned CD in Gnomebaker?
[11:07] <Cryoniq> kbrooks, so it is, but a little confusing though.. but guess it will become more clear in future what the name will be both on it and the download :)
[11:07] <darwin> ??
[11:08] <ANON12345> Cryoniq or kbrooks: where do i get the debian (ubuntu) version of Pidgin (formally Gaim)?
[11:08] <Ace2016> ANON12345: you could compile it yourself
[11:08] <kbrooks> !compile

[11:10] <ziggy23> Hi I need to do SSH port forwarding, read the man pages but keep getting a syntax error setting this up.  Can someone give me a *simplified* syntax?
[11:10] <soundray> Ace2016: few people need an explanation why it is bad to uninstall the kernel of a system.
[11:10] <Scunizi> If I stick a firewire card in my Dapper machine will it automatically be recognized?
[11:10] <kbrooks> soundray, i misunderstood
[11:10] <thelostpatrol> how do i install a tar.gz package from my desktop?
[11:11] <Ace2016> oh ok
[11:11] <jay__> Hang on guys, I cleared some stuff
[11:11] <kbrooks> soundray, jay_ has a bad kernel
[11:11] <jay__> rm /boot/{config,initrd.img,abi,vmlinuz}-2.6.12*
[11:11] <jay__> Oops. Wrong window guys, sorry.
[11:11] <Ace2016> jay__: very bad idea
[11:11] <kbrooks> jay__, bad ...
[11:11] <Ace2016> jay__: very very bad
[11:11] <Ace2016> jay__: almost insane
[11:11] <kbrooks> jay__, remove the packages, not the files themselves
[11:11] <thelostpatrol> how do i install a tar.gz package from my desktop?
[11:12] <Ace2016> jay__: go there and check you have at least one kernel remaining
[11:12] <jay__> I didn't, don't worry

[11:12] <Cryoniq> I am not.. I am trying to find out what proxy servers there are for ubuntu
[11:13] <Cryoniq> oh..
[11:13] <Sid32> bittorent might be slow just depending on seeds
[11:13] <dyrne> q-t: id check to make sure you have port forwarding setup on router. default is 6881 i believe
[11:13] <Sid32> and peers
[11:13] <q-t> dyrne: ok, Ill do that
[11:13] <Tiggzz> q-t, i'd move to nesgroups, and experiance some real speed
[11:14] <q-t> Tiggzz: nesgroups?
[11:14] <Tiggzz> newsgroups sorry

[11:16] <enjoi> sudo apt-get install rar
[11:16] <thelostpatrol> soundray, it's the desktop
[11:16] <Doldrums> anybody using Ltsp-5 with Feisty?
[11:16] <soundray> thelostpatrol: please answer both parts of my question
[11:17] <enjoi> sudo rar e filename
[11:17] <jrib> klausos: I *think* d4x can, but you could always go with "at" and "wget"
[11:17] <Drk_guy> Ty Jrib, you always help me
[11:17] <thelostpatrol> yes i know it, and no i can't cd to it in the terminal because i don't know how to use the terminal well
[11:17] <JC_Denton_> dyrne, thanx. how come there is no gui for this? basic functionality it seems

[11:17] <Tiggzz> any1? :(
[11:17] <CheshireViking> Tiggzz, what hardware is it you're looking at?
[11:18] <Tiggzz> raid controller in particular
[11:18] <dyrne> JC_Denton_: there are several apps that give a gui. ive not used any but the cli ones
[11:18] <soundray> thelostpatrol: that's what I need to know, so I know what I do and don't have to tell you to get this thing installed.
[11:18] <klausos> jrib, thanks i'm gonna watch for d4x
[11:18] <thelostpatrol> soundray, understood. pardon.
[11:18] <jrib> klausos: it's in the repos
[11:18] <Tiggzz> the avail drivers are for redhat/suse and fedora
[11:18] <soundray> thelostpatrol: open a terminal window and type 'cd ~/Desktop'
[11:18] <thelostpatrol> soundray, okay
[11:18] <JC_Denton_> dyrne, thanx. Anyone know of a gui for this?
[11:18] <ConfidentiaL> and how do I mount an mds file then?
[11:18] <soundray> thelostpatrol: then type 'tar zxvf avant-window-navigator-0.1.1-2.tar.gz'
[11:19] <doujikai> what is aim used for?
[11:19] <thelostpatrol> soundray, when i do cd~/Desktop or desktop i get "no such file or directory"
[11:19] <ziggy23> I am trying to tunnel my mail through SSH, I keep getting the error message "Bad local port" -- why?
[11:19] <klausos> jrib, ok, thanks again
[11:19] <PhoenixUK> anyone know if there are any working drivers for radeon x1650 ?
[11:19] <JC_Denton_> dyrne.. is there a cli app to connect the interface to a specified network?
[11:20] <soundray> thelostpatrol: please don't leave out any spaces. They aren't just for decoration.
[11:20] <CheshireViking> Tiggzz, i thought it was going to be something simple, i don't know about raid, maybe somebody else in here knows enough to be able to help
[11:20] <ziggy23> bad local forwarding specification
[11:20] <CheshireViking> !raid | Tiggzz, maybe this will help though
[11:20] <soundray> thelostpatrol: and, yes, it's case sensitive.
[11:20] <thelostpatrol> soundray, i didn't see that. sorry.
[11:20] <dyrne> thelostpatrol: ~ means /home/username. you can see this by typing 'echo ~' if you want
[11:20] <ubotu> Tiggzz, maybe this will help though: Raid and LVM --> very easy guide for alternate CD : http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[11:20] <thelostpatrol> soundray, i'm there now... typing the second part now.
[11:20] <soundray> jannes: still here?
[11:21] <Drk_guy> It worked out perfectly, thanks Jrib
[11:21] <thelostpatrol> dyrne, thank you
[11:21] <jannes> soundray: yes
[11:21] <Tiggzz> well basically I'm looking for a card to build a nas system, and I want to ensure I have drivers  available before I decide on a card
[11:21] <Sid32> Hey, I lost my entire applications menu. its totally blank.
[11:21] <thelostpatrol> soundray, it made some kind of list... and it went back to the terminal command line now
[11:21] <dyrne> JC_Denton_: yeah. 1) iwlist ath0 scan  2) sudo iwconfig ath0 essid networkname  3) sudo dhclient ath0    you can add keys and such using the iwconfig command also like iwconfig essid networkname key 1233423423
[11:21] <Sid32> Anyone know how to repair it?
[11:21] <Tiggzz> I haven't seen any vendors listing support for ubunto, just the main distros

[11:22] <thelostpatrol> ubuntu isn't a main distro?
[11:22] <soundray> jannes: 'sudo -i 's/\ \ \ \ /\t/g filename' I think. Make a backup before you try.
[11:22] <thelostpatrol> i've heard it's the most popular one
[11:22] <thelostpatrol> or did you mean in some other way
[11:22] <eclipse75> they got an equilvalent to daemon tools for linux?
[11:22] <kb_> Hi.  I've just installed Ubuntu on my secondary harddisk (hdb, the primary slave), but the bootloader wasn't set up correctly and it wouldn't boot.  I've chroot'd into my gentoo install, and reconfigured my old grub install and put that into the mbr, but grub claims that hd1 doesn't exist, so I still can't boot ubuntu.  Any ideas on how I can get grub to see the second harddisk?
[11:22] <Sid32> anyone?
[11:22] <dyrne> eclipse75: no need you can mount directly
[11:22] <jannes> soundray: very nice, i'll try this
[11:22] <soundray> thelostpatrol: now 'cd avant-window-navigator-0.1.1/' and 'ls' to see the files there.
[11:22] <Tiggzz> sorry, didn't mean it like that lost
[11:22] <KrakensDen> thelostpatrol, Ubuntu is still pretty new
[11:23] <KrakensDen> thelostpatrol, 'main' means Redhat and SuSe, basically
[11:23] <soundray> jannes: I forgot to close the quote for the expression.
[11:23] <eclipse75> dyrne: you can mount a iso image by itself?
[11:23] <Tiggzz> it isn;t on the scale of redhat os suse yet though
[11:23] <thelostpatrol> Kragnerac, ok
[11:23] <KrakensDen> eclipse75, yes
[11:23] <thelostpatrol> soundray, i did that
[11:23] <eclipse75> good :)
[11:23] <eclipse75> thanks KrakensDen and dyrne
[11:23] <soundray> thelostpatrol: did you get a colored list of files?
[11:23] <kesha> eclipse75 -o loop
[11:23] <thelostpatrol> soundray, yes
[11:23] <thelostpatrol> soundray, green, blue, black
[11:24] <dyrne> eclipse75: sudo mount -o loop filename.iso /mnt/whatever/  you just need to give it loopback option
[11:24] <soundray> thelostpatrol: now, if you were on your own, you would run 'less README' and 'less INSTALL' to find out what's next.
[11:24] <KrakensDen> can't you do that using FUSE, too?
[11:24] <KrakensDen> that would remove the need to sudo...
[11:24] <jannes> soundray: hmm, it just says '-bash: s/\ \ \ \ /\t/g: No such file or directory'
[11:24] <thelostpatrol> soundray, okay
[11:25] <stefg> kb_: aside from the fact that grub /should/ see the scond hardrive, it's unwise to have 2 harddisk on the same IDE-controller. Would rearranging the harddisk be an option?
[11:25] <soundray> jannes: correction:
[11:25] <phy3> unwise?
[11:25] <soundray> jannes: sed -i 's/\ \ \ \ /\t/g' filename
[11:25] <kb_> stefg: yes, I could rearrange them, but my current IDE cable that my cdrom drive is attached to is too short.  Other than the fact there's a performance hit when I'm using both drives, why do you consider it unwise?
[11:26] <kb_> and yes, I agree, grub -should- see the second harddisk, but it's not, unfortunately.
[11:26] <jannes> soundray: ahh, now the command makes sense to me
[11:26] <crolle17> firefox doesn't know how to handle a protokoll for downloading. how can i configure firefox that the browser can handle this download?
[11:26] <Tiggzz> chesireviking: thanks for them links, they are looking good for actually setting up the riads, but I'm looking to find out if the card will work before I make the purchase
[11:26] <kb_> crolle17: which protocol?
[11:26] <soundray> thelostpatrol: but what you will find out is that in order to install this, you have to run './configure ; make ; sudo make install'
[11:26] <stefg> phy3, kb_  , /because/ of the performance hit. 2 drives sharing the same bandwidth on the bus
[11:27] <jannes> soundray: thank you, it worked like a charm
[11:27] <jujimufu> I know a command (remuco-amarok), but I want to make a link of the executable on a folder. How do I find out where it is located?
[11:27] <soundray> thelostpatrol: please hold off, though, until you've considered this private message from ubotu:
[11:27] <soundray> !compile > thelostpatrol
[11:27] <phy3> That doesn't make it unwise
[11:27] <ConfidentiaL> how do I mount mds or mdf files? Or could you explain me simple ubotu commands?
[11:27] <phy3> ok
[11:27] <kb_> stefg: I'm aware of that, but I'll rarely use both at the same time; the old one is primarily archival, as I'm not willing to wipe gentoo off that system entirely yet.
[11:27] <crolle17> kb_ shall i really pronounce that in a channel? it starts with e and ends with 2dk...
[11:27] <soundray> jannes: do you know how to join #ubuntu-de ?
[11:27] <thelostpatrol> soundray, ok
[11:27] <kesha> soundray with commands './configure ; make ; sudo make install' you converting any distro to slackware ;)
[11:27] <kb_> crolle17: ah
[11:28] <crolle17> kb_ can you help me?
[11:28] <r4nge> if i want to configure `awk` to execute `gawk` instead of `mawk` what do i do?  i remember something about dpkg reconfigure or something
[11:28] <r4nge> without manually editing the link
[11:28] <Jay__> Hi all.
[11:29] <kb_> crolle17: no idea, sorry.
[11:29] <stefg> kb_: i remember vaguely that some bios's swap hardrive enumeration during boot. There's even a grub-feature to compensate that... but that's loooong time since i've last got to deal with that
[11:29] <soundray> kesha: I agree, but I think he will see what's involved and understand
[11:29] <jannes> soundray: yes, i joined it already. it was a mistake of me to post my question here
[11:29] <Jay__> I was Jay__ from before. I deleted a lot of unnecessary old versions of my kernel in ubuntu, and I tried to boot it up, and in all of the partitions on my dual boot, it said "error 17: Unable to mount partition"
[11:29] <kb_> stefg: yeah, i'm aware of that too - the problem isn't which drive grub is seeing, so much, as that it's only seeing -one- of the drives (the old, primary one)
[11:30] <soundray> thelostpatrol: when you install software like that, you are bypassing the packaging system, which is generally not a good idea.
[11:30] <Weezer> Hello - I just downloaded this - how do I connect to a server that's not on the connect list? (like gamesurge, or irc.auran.com, or some such)
[11:30] <erUSUL> r4nge: sudo update-alternatives --config awk iirc
[11:30] <frasseff> libapache2-mod-auth-mysql not working in ubuntu 7 . any idea here ?
[11:30] <kb_> Weezer: /join #whatever-chan
[11:30] <soundray> thelostpatrol: one way around this is to use checkinstall
[11:30] <zerokill88> hi.im looking for a program that can read text and then verbaly say what it is reading.like to read me a pdf file or something.is there something out there like this?
[11:30] <soundray> !checkinstall > thelostpatrol
[11:30] <soundray> thelostpatrol: I hope this isn't too much, all at once.
[11:30] <kb_> zerokill88: yes, there are such programs.  I think the major one for linux is called 'festival', but I could be wrong.
[11:30] <stefg> kb_: 'find /boot/grub/menu.list' in grubs command line mode only turns up with the old gentoo partition?
[11:31] <crolle17> can somebody else tell me how to configure the firefox  for setting the protocol?
[11:31] <Ind[y] > I want to find the mobile phone game JC Does Texas for the pc? Is it available?
[11:31] <Jay__> I was Jay__ from before. I deleted a lot of unnecessary old versions of my kernel in ubuntu, and I tried to boot it up, and in all of the partitions on my dual boot, it said "error 17: Unable to mount partition"
[11:31] <thelostpatrol> soundray, no it's not. i'm comfortable with it.
[11:31] <zerokill88> kb_ thanks.will that read pdf files tho?
[11:31] <kb_> stefg: yes, and root (hd<tab> only shows hd0
[11:31] <Jay__> ?
[11:31] <thelostpatrol> soundray, i bookmarked the page from ubotu also
[11:31] <kb_> zerokill88: hm, I'm not sure - if they're searchable, maybe. I've only done text-to-speech with pdf files under macos, since I've never seen much point in it
[11:31] <DivineMonkey> Anyone know why i can't connect to my wireless network? My adapter shows good signal and there's no encryption enabled
[11:31] <soundray> thelostpatrol: that's great. Just imagining myself at your stage, I would have been overwhelmed ;)
[11:31] <stefg> kb_: hmmm... strange. i tend to blame that on the bios
[11:32] <frozenskun1> Hello! Can anyone tell me what is causing me to the this error 'The Composite extension is not available' when trying to start Desktop Effects (System>prefs>desktop effects)?
[11:32] <Jay__> Please, can somebody help me?
[11:32] <thelostpatrol> soundray, i'm a windows veteran... a much more complicated system if you are new. as you surely know. :P
[11:32] <kb_> stefg: yeah - that's what I was thinking.  It's non-obvious how to mess with it in this bios though, unfortunately
[11:32] <zerokill88> kb_ k.its jsut reading a pdf that has 778 files in it will kinda take a toll on the eyes.
[11:32] <kb_> zerokill88: yeah - fair enough, I just hate having to take in information at slow speeds
[11:32] <Jay__> I was Jay__ from before. I deleted a lot of unnecessary old versions of my kernel in ubuntu, and I tried to boot it up, and in all of the partitions on my dual boot, it said "error 17: Unable to mount partition"
[11:32] <ConfidentiaL> how do I mount mds or mdf files? Or could you explain me simple ubotu commands?
[11:33] <zerokill88> kb_ yes true that also
[11:33] <kb_> Jay__: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/grub-error-guide.xml - and we heard you the first time, we can only answer so fast.....
[11:33] <stefg> kb_: i think there's a #grub channel....
[11:33] <kb_> stefg: indeed, I'll ask there
[11:33] <thelostpatrol> soundray, so i'm still at that screen with all the coloured options. do i install?
[11:33] <ferronica> any one here help me regarding adesklets????
[11:34] <soundray> thelostpatrol: probably not. Did you find the hint about installing the build-essential package?
[11:34] <hume> join #mythtv-users
[11:34] <Tiggzz> ah well, I'll come back sometime I guess. I thought it would be a simple answer. :(
[11:34] <frasseff> libapache2-mod-auth-mysql not working in ubuntu 7 . any idea here ?
[11:35] <soundray> thelostpatrol: you will probably also have to install various -dev packages to satisfy the compile time requirements. Running ./configure will give you error messages about what's missing.
[11:35] <Jay__> That's gentoo, I have ubuntu guys, plus, I don't understand how to do it.
[11:35] <lerch> How can I tell if have the latest graphics driver installed and if not, update it? (I'm using an nvidia card)
[11:36] <matt___> i am having massive trouble with avant-window-manager. when i start it, a horizontal black bar about 200 pixels high fills the bottom of my screen, and i can hardly make out the dock. any ideas?
[11:36] <madmaster> guys I've a question regarding WPA in Feisty
[11:36] <dyrne> Jay__: its not a big deal to install grub if you need to. you have knoppix or ubuntu livecd?
[11:36] <soundray> thelostpatrol: please take note ^^ matt___
[11:36] <dyrne> !grub | Jay__
[11:36] <ubotu> Jay__: 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
[11:36] <kb_> Jay2: grub is grub, no matter what distribution you're using
[11:36] <Jay__> Okay, well, I don't understand how to do it./
[11:37] <madmaster> The question is that I upgradedn from 6.06 to 6.10 and then to 7.04
[11:37] <matt___> soundray: thelostpatrol can either of you help me? i noticed soundray named me up above
[11:38] <madmaster> so far to connect to my WPA network unsing a script command for ease
[11:38] <thelostpatrol> matt___, what card are you using?
[11:38] <madmaster> in the feisty i see there is WAP build-in support and in the network should be available
[11:38] <matt___> thelostpatrol: its a geforce, fx5500
[11:38] <kb_> stefg: it was indeed the bios.  Fixed. Thanks.
[11:38] <soundray> matt___: I was helping thelostpatrol getting ready to compile awn.
[11:39] <thelostpatrol> matt___, ok thanks
[11:39] <Neil-> hey my sound is a bit crackly in X games such as tux racer and openarena.. music is fine - any ideas?
[11:39] <amigamia> what is the url for ubuntu server?
[11:39] <madmaster> but I still have only wpa in the drop-down when choosing Wifi network
[11:39] <soundray> matt___: did you install from source?
[11:39] <matt___> soundray: i compiled it, it just didn't work right
[11:39] <matt___> soundray: i did
[11:39] <stefg> kb_: drive not set to lba?
[11:39] <matt___> soundray: can i find a list of dependancies?
[11:39] <kb_> stefg: no, drive set to 'none' instead of 'auto'
[11:39] <Sid32> cane anyone help me with an erased applications folder?
[11:39] <stefg> kb_: lol
[11:39] <Sid32> I crashed and now its completely gone
[11:39] <thelostpatrol> soundray, so i installed checkinstall
[11:40] <soundray> matt___: you must have all the dependencies -- it wouldn't have compiled otherwise.
[11:40] <matt___> soundray: oh
[11:40] <matt___> soundray: so, any idea?
[11:40] <soundray> matt___: your problem could be driver-related, or it could be due to the experimental nature of all this.
[11:41] <matt___> soundray: gotcha
[11:41] <soundray> matt___: I guess #ubuntu-effects might be a better place to ask if there's no one around to help here.
[11:41] <kb_> jay: paste your grub.conf in #paste
[11:41] <matt___> soundray: any good docks in ubuntu repos?
[11:41] <Jay__> I'm on windows, I can't copy and paste things.
[11:41] <soundray> matt___: sorry, I only have generic advice, I don't do beryl and stuff ;)
[11:42] <javaJake> matt___, what do you need help on?
[11:42] <matt___> soundray: lol, ok
[11:42] <thelostpatrol> i love my beryl :D
[11:42] <oli> Hi all - just installed Ubuntu, I'm a tad lost and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction regarding screen resolutions?
[11:42] <javaJake> thelostpatrol, yes!
[11:42] <matt___> javaJake: i am having a trouble with awn
[11:42] <matt___> it doesn't work
[11:42] <Ix0s> !screenres | oli
[11:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about screenres - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:42] <matt___> i mean, its all black
[11:42] <javaJake> matt___, awn?
[11:42] <amigamia> is ubuntu server an enterprise server?
[11:42] <soundray> !fixres > oli, please read the private message from ubotu
[11:42] <oli> cheers
[11:42] <matt___> javaJake: avant window manager
[11:42] <kb_> Jay: fair enough; if you can get a linux boot cd and paste it, I can try to help, but otherwise, well, it's beyond me
[11:42] <madmaster> oli: what are you Kubuntu ir Ubuntu
[11:42] <thelostpatrol> javaJake, i'm trying to compile that same program
[11:42] <KrakensDen> matt___, you could talk to the awn guy
[11:43] <stefg> !fixres | Oli
[11:43] <javaJake> thelostpatrol, oh, awn?
[11:43] <ubotu> Oli: 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
[11:43] <matt___> KrakensDen: who is that?
[11:43] <thelostpatrol> javaJake, yes
[11:43] <KrakensDen> matt___, gimme a second to find him
[11:43] <oli> lxos:
[11:43] <javaJake> thelostpatrol, I don't know about that
[11:43] <matt___> KrakensDen: ok
[11:43] <UnluckyMike> matt_: i think you have to have a composite window manager such as beryl, do you have one
[11:43] <oli> lx0s: I tried that before but it keps telling me that screen 0 does not exist
[11:43] <javaJake> matt___, I thought you were talking about beryl. :P
[11:43] <crimeboy> hi
[11:43] <matt___> javaJake: lol
[11:43] <soundray> thelostpatrol: good luck with your awn, I'll ask you about it next week :)
[11:44] <javaJake> matt___, Beryl IS a window manager
[11:44] <ferronica> any one here help me regarding adesklets????
[11:44] <madmaster> Does anyone know why I don't see WPA in Feisty as WiFi encription, though it is already installed?
[11:44] <javaJake> matt___, so you can't really run them both
[11:44] <javaJake> ferronica, lol, here too? :D
[11:44] <thelostpatrol> soundray, heh
[11:44] <crimeboy> somebody know how to fix this: mary@bonsai:~$ xterm -fn snap
[11:44] <crimeboy> xterm:  unable to open font "snap", trying "fixed"....
[11:44] <matt___> javaJake: im not running beryl
[11:44] <ferronica> javaJake: yeah
[11:44] <thelostpatrol> soundray, i've had no problems with my stuff so far, even beryl, which people had some complaints about :P
[11:44] <javaJake> matt___, oh, my apologies
[11:44] <UnluckyMike> matt_: i think you have to have a composite window manager such as beryl, do you have one
[11:44] <ferronica> javaJake: :)
[11:45] <KrakensDen> matt_, http://www.planetblur.org/hosted/awnforum/index.php?shard=forum is their forum
[11:45] <javaJake> thelostpatrol, same here
[11:45] <KrakensDen> matt___, http://njpatel.blogspot.com/ is the developer's blog
[11:45] <matt___> UnluckyMike: no
[11:45] <matt___> UnluckyMike: i may install beryl in a few to try it
[11:45] <KrakensDen> matt___, that's probably where you want to go for help :)
[11:45] <thelostpatrol> so... somone tell me... how do i compile this after i get in to the directory for it?
[11:45] <UnluckyMike> matt__: try installing beryl i know a few docks require it
[11:46] <KrakensDen> matt___, he has a point- not about beryl
[11:46] <KrakensDen> matt___, but I don't remember if ubuntu has compositing on by default
[11:46] <KrakensDen> matt___, if it's off, it'll give you that sort of error
[11:46] <isleshocky77> Has anyone seen any information or know how to get a windows mobile 5 phone synced with Ubunutu (Evolution)?
[11:47] <Jay__> Kb_: can you help me in seperate dialog
[11:47] <Sid32> anyone know how to rebuild the applications menus
[11:47] <KrakensDen> matt___, the blackness and all
[11:47] <chii_testing> meh,....
[11:47] <Jay__> Because at this point, my linux won't even boot up.
[11:47] <UnluckyMike> KrakenDen: the default window manager does not have compositing, you need beryl or any other composite window manager
[11:47] <isleshocky77> It's the last thing stopping me from completely switching over since I'm running an xp and ubuntu laptop side by side for the past week
[11:47] <kb_> Jay__: in #paste, sure; i can't use PM, as i'm not reg'd
[11:47] <Jay__> OKay
[11:47] <matt___> KrakensDen: so how do i check?
[11:47] <KrakensDen> Sid32, are they empty or missing?
[11:47] <defjux> hi do i need to defrag in ubuntu?
[11:47] <javaJake> defjux, no
[11:47] <Sid32> I crashed and now the applications is empty
[11:48] <KrakensDen> UnluckyMike, mmmm... no, there is an xorg toggle so you can get the composite extension
[11:48] <defjux> javajake thats awesome but why not?
[11:48] <KrakensDen> UnluckyMike, which is separate from the window managers, though they depend on it
[11:48] <javaJake> defjux, the ext3 filesystem is so much better then Window's NTFS notice.
[11:48] <defjux> thats incredible.
[11:48] <Jay__> kb_: how do I go to paste in mIRC
[11:48] <Sid32> Programs stll run
[11:48] <Sid32> but no access to update manger, etc
[11:48] <kb_> Jay__: /join #paste
[11:48] <Chii_> bleh someone else has the name chii on here :>  Oh well lol
[11:48] <KrakensDen> Sid32, right. Are all three bars gone or just the first?
[11:48] <javaJake> defjux, because unlike NTFS (which just writes files where-ever) it always writes files at the beginning of the filesystem
[11:49] <UnluckyMike> KrakensDen: then i stand corrected
[11:49] <matevzp> hi, anyone who works on the ubuntu official page here?
[11:49] <Sid32> Kraken: applicatiosn totally empty
[11:49] <Elda> Oooh okey I had this oe
[11:49] <KrakensDen> Sid32, my first thought would be to open up the menu editor, hit alt-f2 and type alacarte
[11:49] <Elda> *one
[11:49] <defjux> cool. wow i wonder why they made ntfs suck so much. can you install windows on ext3?
[11:49] <Elda> Its been a while since Ive been o this network >.<
[11:49] <matevzp> the download links don't work correctly
[11:49] <javaJake> defjux, No
[11:49] <KrakensDen> Sid32, in a perfect world, that should allow you to turn things back on
[11:49] <crimeboy> someone knows how to use ttfonts on xterm?
[11:49] <defjux> figured
[11:49] <javaJake> defjux, not according to my knowledge
[11:49] <ferronica> any one here help me regarding adesklets????
[11:49] <dooglus> defjux: don't believe the hype.  ext3 does get fragmented too
[11:49] <KrakensDen> Sid32, if not, something else is missing, which is bad :P
[11:49] <javaJake> defjux, yes, I was just going to say that
[11:49] <defjux> dooglus, do hmm, is there a way to reduce that that you know of?
[11:49] <javaJake> defjux, it does fragment but not as badly. It takes years for it to become a problem.
[11:50] <Dave_is_sexy> man this is hard. i have finally got a library that i need. it's source code and has no ./congiure, and make doesn't work. what do i do?
[11:50] <defjux> ah ok
[11:50] <Sid32> I can't add bookmarks to firefox any more
[11:50] <Sid32> and my old ones are erased
[11:50] <javaJake> defjux, I mean, even after a year I only have 5% fragmenting.
[11:50] <wimdows> hi guys...after I logged into Ubuntu, it just crashed - screen went funny...so I restarted - logged in again, and after the desktop loaded up, it went back again to the login....where can I see what happened? any log files?
[11:50] <Elda> Quick question.. what is a good ftp client to use?  Decided to try getting into Linux again, after having a bad go with Vista on this laptop lol
[11:50] <kb_> Dave_is_sexy: you hack the makefile and/or source, or file a bug with whoever wrote it?
[11:50] <dooglus> defjux: yes, run "defrag"...
[11:50] <Sid32> I use filezilla for ftp
[11:50] <dooglus> !info defrag
[11:50] <ubotu> defrag: ext2, minix and xiafs filesystem defragmenter. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.73pjm1-8ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 68 kB, installed size 208 kB
[11:51] <isleshocky77> Anyone know of a way of syncing a Windows Mobile 5 phone with Ubuntu (evolution, or something similar)?
[11:51] <Elda> Okey, is that gui based?  As I am currently trying to learn console stuff since it makes up the "guts" of linux as it where but I still like a gui here and there xD
[11:51] <Dave_is_sexy> kb_: really? oh fuck that. if they're not going to do a simle thing like that right, what's the rest of the program written like. Although I'm fairly certain you are foolish and wrong.
[11:51] <saki> whats the path to the X includes?
[11:51] <S2> isleshocky77, synce
[11:52] <caballero33> what would be a program that i could set to record a live webcast or stream off the internet?
[11:52] <ferronica> how to use adesklets???
[11:52] <PriceChild> Dave_is_sexy, calm it down please ;)
[11:52] <dooglus> Dave_is_sexy: how does the makefile not work?
[11:52] <javaJake> caballero33, mplayer, but complex to set up
[11:52] <Dave_is_sexy> pricechild: totally calm. just blunt
[11:52] <kb_> Dave_is_sexy: I have no idea what library you're talking about, and I don't see what's wrong with emailing them and politely telling the authors that it doesn't compile on your system, complete with the error message - how else would they know?
[11:52] <jpjacobs> caballero33, there is streamripper
[11:52] <wimdows> "Calmer than you are" - quote from The Big Lebowski....
[11:53] <KrakensDen> Dave_is_sexy, what are you installing, by the way? I can't find your original message
[11:53] <dooglus> caballero33: "mplayer -dumpstream" is what I use
[11:53] <isleshocky77> S2: Have any good tutorials/how-to's, or information on it?  I couldn't find anything on they're site the other day.

[11:53] <S2> isleshocky77, it's all on theyr wiki.

[11:54] <dooglus> Dave_is_sexy: you typed "make all"?
[11:54] <dooglus> Dave_is_sexy: try just "make"
[11:54] <Dave_is_sexy> krakensden: ripoff, which wants libcdio
[11:54] <Dave_is_sexy> dooglus: that is just make
[11:54] <isleshocky77> S2: Are windows Movile 2005 and windows movile 5 considered the same?
[11:54] <DeRoXX> can anyone help me with ndiswrapper?
[11:54] <matt___> KrakensDen: so how do i check if it is on?
[11:54] <Dave_is_sexy> dooglus: it just adds the all part by itself

[11:54] <KrakensDen> Dave_is_sexy, libcdio is in the apt repositories
[11:55] <KrakensDen> Dave_is_sexy, you're compiling, you want a dev package
[11:55] <doujikai> can any one tell me what is aim protocal used for?
[11:55] <dooglus> Dave_is_sexy: if you're trying to compile something that needs libcdio, you need the -dev package
[11:55] <Dave_is_sexy> dooglus::idn't that totally different?
[11:55] <Dave_is_sexy> dooglus: oh. oh right :)
[11:55] <KrakensDen> Dave_is_sexy, compiling is 90% of what developers do :P. On the bad days
[11:55] <dooglus> Dave_is_sexy: no.  the -dev package is basically the header ftiglehiuhgtgfjv - sorry - drunk gf - files you need
[11:56] <Dave_is_sexy> dooglus, oh yes it says i need the package headers to
